My guest is Jenna Stocker—writer, wife, mother, Marine Corps veteran, and a thoughtful observer of American life whose work has appeared in the Daily Wire, National Review, The Federalist, and elsewhere. We begin with her recent Daily Wire essay on iconic Americana and ask whether the independent, adventurous spirit that once defined this country can still be recovered. Along the way, we explore memory, gratitude, optimism, and what it means to preserve the best of a civilization without merely living in nostalgia.

From there, the conversation turns to the craft of writing itself. Why do writers continue answering the call of the page despite rejection, obscurity, and the suspicion that their words may vanish into the wind? And then, after the interview was supposedly over, two writers simply kept talking. We compared influences, shared the books and ideas that have shaped us, and reflected on the curious vocation of putting thoughts into words. The microphones, as it turned out, were still recording.

A self-made businessman, attorney, and U.S. Army National Guard veteran, Keith is funding his own campaign and has boldly pledged to donate his entire congressional salary to local private charities if elected. This move severs the financial puppet strings that control so many in Washington and at home, ensuring he answers only to the people of the Florida Panhandle—not special interests in D.C. or the local good ol’ boys network. 

Keith shares his common-sense America First vision on the issues that matter most: securing the border and enforcing immigration laws, restoring American energy independence, fighting inflation and skyrocketing costs, reducing crime, and putting working families first. As a proven job creator who rose from a single-parent home through grit and entrepreneurship, he stands with the 80% of voters who are tired of politics as usual. With the August 18, 2026 primary approaching and strong polling numbers against a crowded field, this episode dives deep into why Keith represents a genuine threat to the old order.

Brian makes a compelling case for aggressive government reform designed to cut delays, reduce costs, and deliver results for taxpayers instead of special interests. 

As a candidate who refuses to be bought, Brian is facing an all-too-familiar reality in local politics: monied elites, entrenched special interests, and county kingmakers are working behind the scenes to starve his campaign of resources. Unable to defeat his ideas in open debate, they’ve chosen financial suppression instead.

What sets Keith apart from the typical Washington crowd is simple and refreshing: he’s self-funding his campaign and has pledged to donate his entire congressional salary to charity. With the financial puppet strings cut, he cannot be bought by special interests or the donor class. As I told him on the show—it’s about bloody time someone in office actually puts the interests of the voters over the whims of monied elites.

Keith’s platform is straightforward and desperately needed: Cut wasteful spending, fight inflation head-on, restore affordability for working families, and ensure government sticks to its essential role—protecting the lives, liberty, and freedoms of American citizens instead of subjecting them to the arbitrary rule of micromanaging bureaucrats in Washington, D.C.
