Episode Overview

This episode of After Hours with Alex Stein on Real America’s Voice brings Stein’s signature no-holds-barred commentary to three primary topics: skepticism about the latest government UFO disclosures, an in-depth interview with South Carolina GOP Senate primary challenger Mark Lynch, and a chaotic deep-dive into the alleged Mike Vrabel–Diana Russini NFL gossip. Alex Stein’s approach is irreverent, aggressively skeptical of mainstream and official narratives, and peppered with humor and candid language throughout.

Key Discussion Points & Insights

1. Government UFO Files & Skepticism (04:22–15:05)

Theme:
Alex Stein opens the show lambasting the U.S. government’s latest UFO revelations, suggesting they’re elaborate distractions from real domestic issues like rising gas prices, ongoing wars, and economic malaise.

Discussion Highlights:

• Government Transparency and Distraction:
  Stein argues UFO disclosures are “meant to distract us from something serious” (05:04), like the Iran war or economic crises.
• Media Manipulation Skepticism:
  He questions the integrity of Fox News and Peter Doocy’s reporting on new UFO material, asserting:

  "Anything they tell you, we should probably believe the opposite." (06:42, Alex Stein)

• War.gov/UFO Website Ridicule:
  Stein ridicules the creation of a government UFO website as evidence “they think that we are so dumb that we are actually functioning… mentally disabled and that we should probably have a caretaker” (08:24).
• Frustrations with Priorities:
  He blasts DC for focusing public attention on aliens:

  “Are those aliens going to pay my credit card bill? ... If the answer is no, then I don’t give a damn about the aliens, okay?” (09:22, Alex Stein)

• Historical Apollo 17 Files:
  The show reviews declassified Apollo 17 mission records, with Stein attributing “lights” seen by astronauts to natural effects like radiation, not alien visitation.

  "You have these people… like Barack Obama, ‘Well, it can't be a conspiracy. Not enough people could keep the secret.’ Yeah, you guys have classified information every single day that you keep from the American people." (13:21–14:06, Alex Stein)

Memorable Quote:

"Well, let me tell you something. We're not living in the movie Independence Day. We're probably living more in a movie like Shawshank Redemption—all trying to escape a digital prison." (08:59, Alex Stein)

2. Mark Lynch vs. Lindsey Graham: The Senate Race (16:58–46:49)

Introduction of Mark Lynch (16:58–17:34)

• Stein introduces Mark Lynch as the anti-establishment, blue-collar primary challenger running against Sen. Lindsey Graham in South Carolina.

Mark Lynch’s Background (17:34–20:09)

• Family appliance business since 1985, expanding from 5 to 110 employees, debt-free since 1999.
• Lynch’s “culture statement:”

  “We love Jesus and we’re the Navy Seals of this industry.” (18:44, Mark Lynch)

On Lindsey Graham’s Record (20:09–24:24)

• Lynch brands Graham as a “warmonger” invested in endless foreign wars.
• Accuses Graham of prioritizing money and the military-industrial complex over constituents:

  “He salivates at war, it’s a bloodlust, evil… he gets millions of dollars out of all that.” (20:37, Mark Lynch)

Discussion on Open Primaries & South Carolina Politics (22:33–24:24)

• Lynch laments South Carolina’s open primary system, which allows Democrats to influence GOP results, and exposes rhino-led resistance to party registration reforms.

Appliance Talk as a Metaphor (24:24–28:51)

• Stein and Lynch rant against declining appliance quality, government eco-mandates, and “built-in obsolescence.”
• Nostalgia for durable old products (Maytag, Speed Queen):

  "Mark, do not, do not, you better say it's energy efficient because it saves my bill. Do not go climate change on me. I'm going to freak out." (27:30, Alex Stein)

Campaign & Character (31:59–46:49)

• Stein plays Lynch’s campaign ad and asks about accusations from Lindsey Graham, including attacks on Lynch’s past drug conviction.
• Lynch recounts overcoming addiction, finding faith, helping rehabilitate others, and incorporating these experiences into his business and life:

  "My wife and I have helped thousands of men and women come out of the lies of addiction into freedom in Christ." (35:14–35:27, Mark Lynch)

• Lynch frames this as an asset, not a liability, and says his past only makes his campaign stronger:

  "So Lindsey thinks that this is something that’s hurting us. It’s actually awesome… Thank you, Lindsay." (37:25, Mark Lynch)

• Lynch and Stein both criticize Graham on a range of issues: military aid to NGOs linked to America’s enemies, pro-choice stances, and being out of touch with constituents.
• Lynch argues his campaign is viable:
  • Recent polling has Graham dropping to 23% when primary voters are informed about Lynch’s platform.
  • Lynch advocates for grassroots, word-of-mouth campaigning and prayer.

Memorable Quotes:

• “He [Graham] told us a couple of weeks ago, ‘I’m going to come back to South Carolina and take your sons and daughters and bring them over here to the Middle East to fight in this war…’ Our families here are saying, ‘No. I’m sorry. That’s not going to happen.’” (20:56, Mark Lynch)

• "If you say you are a Republican, you cannot vote for Lindsey Graham, if you understand the Republican creed and the oath that we take as a U.S. senator." (42:01, Mark Lynch)

• "Let’s do this on our knees in prayer. Number two, get everybody you know… to go vote for me." (44:00, Mark Lynch)

---

3. Mike Vrabel – Diana Russini Media Firestorm (49:09–End)

Theme:
Stein delivers a scandalous, tabloid-style rant about the alleged affair between NFL coach Mike Vrabel and analyst Diana Russini.

Discussion Highlights:

• Diana Rossini allegedly caught cheating on her husband (a Shake Shack executive); her first child is named Mike.
• Shake Shack stock reportedly fell 25% after the news (Stein encourages listeners to "fact check that").
• Observations about relationship red flags, NFL “love triangles,” and the moral failings of public figures:

  "Mike Vrabel, I think you’re a loser for doing this. I think this is a bad example you set for all of the other players in the NFL." (54:16, Alex Stein)

• Reiterates the public’s “right to transparency” not just in government but in sports/media.

Memorable (and Salacious) Quotes:

“She is a veteran in the sex military. That’s right. She has been caught and exposed for cheating on her husband…” (49:49, Alex Stein)
“If somebody will do that to their wife, cheat on their spouse with somebody that works in the media… I think that’s a special kind of evil, and that is what a psychopath would do.” (53:28, Alex Stein)

[Public Podcast Sponsor]

Late night just got dangerous. After Hours with your host, Alex Stein starts right now.

[Alex Stein]

Ladies and gentlemen, boys and girls, welcome to After Hours with Alex Stein right here on Real America's Voice. Now tonight, we got a lot to talk about. We have the candidate that is running against Lindsey Graham in the great state of South Carolina. Can't even say it for senator. That's right. We got the one, the only Mark lynch coming on. But I want to talk about something that is very near and dear to my heart. You guys probably have been watching the show for a while and you guys know that I'm somewhat of a space nerd, right? And I like UFOs. My biological stepfather, Tucker Carlson, has covered UFOs for years on his programs, whether it's Fox News or on his independent podcast. But tonight we have breaking news that the government has just released what they're calling unidentified flying objects. UFOs. But when pressed about it, if you ask them are aliens indeed real, they still have not confirmed the existence of an extraterrestrial. Now, I want to play this clip. Peter Doocy this morning broke a huge story. Allegedly he was given this by the Trump administration that they're showing us these unidentified flying objects in order to create some sort of illusion that we're getting government transparency. But I just want to. Please, I want to beg you. This is all fake. Anytime that they give us some sort of alien disclosure, it's meant to distract us from something serious. Is this meant to distract us from the Iran war? Is this meant to distract us from the rising gas prices? Is this meant to distract us from a laundry list of reasons that I can't even list on the show because it's not that long of a program? My point is, I don't understand why. Why all of a sudden they choose to give us these frames of these things flying. That to me look like nonsense. But I'm going to let you be the judge. So I want to play the clips that Peter Doocy was given by the Trump administration saying this is disclosure of an unidentified flying object. UFO disclosure. Let's play it.

[Mark Lynch]

So the government is trying to answer the question, do aliens exist? And the answer is they don't know. But in an effort of transparency, they are giving us all of the material that they are working with as they try to answer that question.

[Alex Stein]

What do I tell you guys every single episode about Fox News? Anything they tell you, we should probably believe the opposite. And if they're going to be the ones that are breaking the biggest story in the world about the fact that aliens are flying around or we're conducting military operations all across the globe, then you know it's going to be fake. And I'm not the one that said that they're going to do the fake alien invasion. It was actually forecasted by many people smarter than me. And we have Ronald Reagan in one of his State of the Union addresses talking about how if we had an existential intergalactic threat from some sort of alien, that it would actually bring the world together into what they want. It's called a one World Order. So trust me, there are ulterior motives with this release of unidentified flying objects. Now, they asked Peter Doocy if they were able to retrieve any of these spaceships. And then he gives an interesting answer. Let's play it is what the government has collected from belief that these things crashed, there was crash retrieval, and that we have some sort of evidence. Is there anything in this batch of released files that that would answer that question?

[Mark Lynch]

There's nothing in this batch. But we've been told that this is about to become a regular thing because there are hundreds of documents and dozens of pieces of media, videos and photos that are contained on this drive that has just been uploaded to the new website, which is war.gov UFO. There is nothing like that in this batch. But they are going through and they are working to declassify whatever they can.

[Alex Stein]

I honestly, I don't want to be over dramatic. I don't. Even though I love the theatrics. If you think that they're going to have a website war.gov UFO and you're gonna, oh, oh, I got a war. And they're going to show you an alien. You are smoking crack, okay? The fact that they even made that website shows you that they think that we are so dumb that we are actually functioning. And I'm not saying that hyperbolically, I'm not saying that metaphorically. They literally think that we are mentally disabled and that we should probably have a caretaker. That is how much they trust our judgment and our sense of reality. Because let me tell you something. As soon as they start making websites like they're only fans actresses trying to show their for 5, 99amonth, you know it's fake. So I'm very frustrated because we have enough domestic issues within our own borders that we're not going to focus on. But they're going to play some UFO tapes and all of a sudden a bunch of space nerds are going to get boners and think that we're going to be living in the movie Independence Day. Well, let me tell you something. We're not living in the movie Independence Day. We're probably living more in a movie like Shawshank Redemption, all trying to escape a digital prison. But guess what? You can go to war.gov UFO and learn all about these space aliens are going to take you on a spaceship and stick a rectal probe up your derriere. Okay? So I hope you have fun with that. I hope you have fun with Agent Mulder and Agent Scully watching the X Files reruns, because this is all nonsense. This is some of the stuff. I mean, this is a fake blimp they just showed you. But that pimp on a blip. That blimp is more real than any footage you're gonna see from the government. And I'm just. I said at the beginning, I'm gonna say it again. I'm not trying to be overdramatic, but I have a lot of frustrations with our government when it comes to our Domestic issues. The fact that we're not deporting anybody, the fact that we're having an affordability crisis, the fact that I went to the gas tank and spent almost $100 just trying to fill up my Z71 Tahoe, and you want to give me aliens like I give a damn. Are those aliens going to pay my credit card bill? Those aliens are going to pay my mortgage. Are those aliens going to like and subscribe to my Instagram or my YouTube page? If the answer is no, then I don't give a damn about the aliens, okay? As a matter of fact, if we got aliens, you better figure out a way to tax their derrieres. Because if I'm paying for alien crap, I'm going to be sick. I'm already paying for illegal immigrants to have hotel rooms in New York. I swear, swear to the Lord in heaven, if I have to pay for an alien hotel, which I know is going to be fake, but people are going to believe it because people are dumb, and I'm one of the dumb people. I'm going to freak out. If my tax dollars go to your fake alien refugee plan. I'm going to have a serious issue with that. And I'm going to move to Guatemala. I'm going to move to Guatemala. I just want that known. Clip this. Hold me accountable. If, in the future, everything I say comes true and I don't move to Guatemala, make me move to Guatemala. Because at this point, I love America. It's the greatest country on Earth. But I'm sick and tired of the bull crap. And today, when everybody's struggling financially, everybody's struggling trying to make ends meet, they give us a hot pile of dog turd to eat. And that's three videos of alleged aliens flying around while we're conducting military operations. What are the chances? No footage from somebody just on their back porch. No footage of somebody in the World Trade Center. No footage of, like, someone in a building. All military opera. Of course, the military footage got. Of course. How convenient. Well, your convenient fake alien invasion is not going to be accepted by the American people. Not the smart ones, the dumb ones. Sure, they're going to love it. They're probably going to buy T shirts, they're going to buy merch. Oh, I was here for the fake alien invasion or they're going to think it's real, but you know what I mean. You get what I'm saying? Saying I'm just a little frustrated now. I want to play this. This is Peter Doocy talking about the Apollo 17 missions. And now allegedly on our space mission in 1971 or 72, whenever it was, they allegedly saw aliens. Oh, how freaking convenient. Let's play the clip.

[Mark Lynch]

And there's also a fresh look at some historical records. There's this from Apollo 17, included in this big document dump. One of the astronauts says, we've got a few very bright particles or fragments or something that go drifting by as we maneuver. The control center says, roger, understood. Another astronaut says, there's a whole bunch of big ones on my window down there, just bright. It looks like the 4th of July out of Ron's window. Another astronaut says, yes, now you can see some of them in shape. They're very jagged, angular fragments that are tumbling. This extreme exchange has long been dismissed as floating insulation. But now the White House is saying while this photo has been previously released and discussed by keen observers, there is no consensus about the nature of the anomaly.

[Alex Stein]

Well, thank God they're telling the truth about that. And you know, these people allegedly had to go through the Van Allen radiation belts, which are belts of deadly radiation that when you close your eyes, you can actually see sparkles and see bright lights because the radiation is so powerful. So my point is, when you're in space, allegedly out there, you're going through a atmosphere and a place that is dark, but they can't see the stars. That is very unpredictable, to say the least. So you're probably going to see weird stuff, and you probably think it's a space alien invasion and it's Will Smith trying to save the planet from the, you know, tall whites. None of that is real. So thank the Lord Jesus today, at least debunk the Apollo 17 moon mission, because you're telling me that we've known about aliens since the early 70s, late 60s. Give me a freaking break. And then you have these jerk. I don't want to say the other word because we're on tv, but my point is, you have these people, like Barack Obama. Well, it can't be a conspiracy. Not enough people could keep the secret. Yeah, you guys have classified information every single day that you keep from the American people. So I'm sick and tired of being peed on and told that it's raining, and that's what's happening here. Except it's not pee, it's poop, which is worse. All right, guys, coming up after the break, we got a great guest here. He is running for senator of South Carolina. His name's Mark lynch, and he's facing an opponent that is allegedly in the closet by the name of Lindsey Graham, Lady G and Mark Lynch. This guy doesn't pull any punches when it comes to talking about Lindsey G. So if you guys want to hear the real scoop about this hardcore race in South Carolina, that's coming up next after the break.

[Alex Stein]

Thank you guys so much for joining us this evening on After Hours with Alex Stein right here in Real America's Voice. And I'm honored to have our next guest. He is in a tough primary. It's an open primary for Senator the great state of South Carolina and he's challenging the one, the only Lady G. Lindsey Graham. And you guys know how I feel about Lindsey Graham. So if there's anything that we can do to help take him out of power, I think that would be in our best interest. So I want to welcome on our guest, the one, the only Mark Lynch. Mark, how are you doing, my friend? Welcome to After Hours with Alex Stein.

[Mark Lynch]

Yeah, doing great, Alex. Great to be on your show.

[Alex Stein]

Well, Mark, you know, a lot of people might not know your background. I know South Carolina is obviously a very important state, but, you know, there's a big, you know, it's a big country. You've been, you've been incredibly successful in the appliance business. So can you tell us what from your background will give you, I guess, the experience to become a senator for South Carolina?

[Mark Lynch]

Yeah, you know, I'm a lifelong South Carolinian, born in Greenville. My wife of 38 years and two kids and four grandchildren. I bought into my father's business back in 1985. He passed the reins on. And with God at the center, we've grown the business 35 times. And we've been debt free since 1999, personally and corporately. And so working in our business, we've been the David against the Goliaths. You know, all the big global national chain stores like Lowe's and Home Depot and Best Buy and some of the ones that aren't here any longer, Sears and Roebuck and Circuit City and HH Greg and Montgomery Wards and Leechmere and Kmart and JM Fields. We've had them all, Alex, in our, in our market, all at the same time. And our business has grown and we fight them every day. So we know, we know what it takes to do business and negotiate deals with the manufacturers so that we have an even playing field with low cost so we can make a fair margin of profit. And, you know, I have to be their dad and their boss and their pastor and counselor and deal with all the things that these men and women go through in life. And we grew our business from five employees to 110. And we have just an awesome culture. And my son's third generation now, Alex, he's there and transitioning into running the store, especially being thrown in the fire while I've been on the campaign trail since February of last year. And he said, dad, what, what's our culture statement? You know, he goes to these next gen training meetings with our buying group. And I said, you know, that's, that's a good question. We don't have a culture statement, but if I could write one real quick, this is it. We love Jesus and we're the Navy Seals of this industry. So being a fighter, knowing how to execute and get things across the last three yards and closing sales and battling the big box stores and that, that, that gives me a lot of things that will help me as a US Senator when I go in and replace Lindsey.

[Alex Stein]

Well, I hope you do. Now, I think one of the biggest complaints when it comes to Lindsey Graham is that he's more interested in America's foreign affairs, and he is the affairs of South Carolinians. Now, what are you going to say when they say, oh, well, Mark, you just want to become a senator so you can work some deal with China and get your appliances cheaper or something like that? You know, are they going to. Are they going to accuse you of that, Mark? And why don't you, why don't you think Lindsey Graham cares about South Carolinians as much as he does people in the Middle East?

[Mark Lynch]

He's, he's a warmonger. He. He salivates at war, is a bloodlust, evil. You can watch him when he starts talking about starting the next war. And, you know, he's been awol. South Carolinians have, have not seen him. He's been over in Israel and in the Ukraine and working with Zelinsky and trying to keep all that going because he's about Lindsay first, and he gets millions of dollars out of all that. Some of his biggest campaign contributors are Boeing and Lockheed Martin, the military industrial complex. And so that's who he takes good care of. And so South Carolinian said, wondering, you know, he hadn't been here in over a year, but he's coming around now that it's campaign season. But he told us a couple of weeks ago, I'm going to come back to South Carolina and take your sons and daughters and bring them over here to the Middle east to fight in this war. And our, our families here are saying, no, I'm sorry, that's not going to happen. They're all tired of it. So this is the year we're going to give America a wonderful birthday present on its 250th anniversary, Alex, by replacing a traitor and bringing a true conservative into D.C. to represent the people of South Carolina.

[Alex Stein]

You know, honestly, at this point, I don't even think it matters if you're conservative. I just think it matters if you care about America, because we've just been so disappointed. And Lindsey Graham, obviously, I want a conservative in there, but I think just anybody that cares about the state of South Carolina would be better than Lindsey Graham, even if it was a Democrat, believe it or not, not in trying to endorse any Democrats, but I think South. I think Lindsey Graham is that bad for the state. I truly believe that a Democrat would probably do his job better than him. And that's why we got to get you over the line. Now explain to me how does his primary work? How does it work in South Carolina? Because I'm not too familiar with it. And why is this different and how is he able to kind of spend his way in is what they're speculating.

[Mark Lynch]

Well, we have open primaries, Alex. So on our Republican primary day, the Democrats can come in and vote as a Republican and upset the results of Republican elections. We don't have party registration. It's crazy. Our state House is all controlled by a bunch of rhinos, and so they'll never, ever pass this. We had another strong bill that came up at the first of the year, H3310, that the house put forth. And it had teeth in it, required party registration, but it didn't get anywhere. And the speaker of the House and the GOP chairman in South Carolina push it back and tell them, you know, if you bring those bills up here, you know, to the Freedom Caucus, that they talk to them and say, if you bring those bills up here, we'll throw them in the trash. But we need some people, you know, that have guts that'll expose that and say, you know, throw it in the trash. Give me that. So we can put that out on an outdoor board all over the state and expose to the South Carolinian Republicans what's going on here. You know, they formed a loyalty oath a couple of years ago and they wouldn't let the Republicans on The Freedom Caucus, 16 of our true conservative Republicans in the House, they wouldn't let him physically come into the Republican caucus because they refused to sign the loyalty. The loyalty oath says whatever we talk about in these four walls stays in these four walls. We don't let the constituents hear what we're talking about. And nobody can ever come up against an incumbent House representative and try to get somebody new elected. And so 16 of our best guys said, we're not signing that. So that's what's going on in South Carolina and crooked Columbia.

[Alex Stein]

Well, good for them. I really appreciate them sticking their neck out there. And it's so ridiculous. Like, if you don't play ball, you can't come in these meetings. I'm not surprised. Now, I would say I know being senator is a very powerful position. There's only two from every state. But since you are in the appliance business, I've gone through about, realistically, three different washers. And I think Trump did put something in some legislation. They've tried to make all these appliances Eco friendly and fuel friendly and climate friendly. And now these appliances, they, they crap out in two years. Yet I had an oven for about 45 years, literally. You know, I had an old oven from before I was born that worked. So why is that? Why are all these new appliances such junk, Mark?

[Mark Lynch]

Well, you know, a lot of, a lot of these manufacturers are not making things in America anymore. They've gone to Mexico, they've gone to China, they've gone overseas in Europe and they're getting cheap labor and the quality has gone downhill and they definitely have built in obsolescence years ago. You know, Maytag, old lonely, the old lonely repairman for that company that was real. Those washing machines would last an average of 25, 28 years, every one of them. People would buy washer twice in their lifetime and that's the only washers they would have. Today we have Speed Queen, which is the last of the Mohicans, and that's still a good washer that has an average life of 25 years. The rest of the appliances are probably 12 years max. They just, they're not built to last like they used to be. It's a shame, I mean, Mark.

[Alex Stein]

Well, I gotta cut you off. Whose idea was it? And I'm dead serious to make a side loading washer. What sense does that make? I went through two side loadings because, you know, one my dad bought the, sold them on and the second one the guy sold me on, oh, this is so good to get the side loading. And I bought two that failed and they both were always, oh, there's too much water, had to drain it. Who came up with that idea? And when did that become popular? Because I think that has hurt the washing machine business more than anything ever. A side loading washing machine, it's just, it's nonsensical. And the reason why I'm getting so animated about this is because that's a big issue. When appliances used to last 20 years and now they last two. I think that is a horrible indication of where our country and where manufacturing is going.

[Mark Lynch]

Yeah, you know, we, I think you're referring to a front load washer.

[Alex Stein]

That's a front loader. Whatever I've called a side loader. I'm not a washer. I'm not. My maid Juanita, my housekeeper, does it all, but she's the one complaining all the time. Oh, Mr. Stein. The clothes aren't clean, the washer's not working. So yes, front loader. Yeah. What do I look like? I'm sorry, Mark, you're The expert.

[Mark Lynch]

No, no, that's okay. No, Frigidaire had had a front load washer. I mean, 50 years ago or longer. Maytag kind of was the first one to kind of refocus on that and bring it out with new technology. And then everybody came with front loaders. They are more energy efficient. There is less things to go wrong with them.

[Alex Stein]

Mark, do not, do not, you better say it's energy efficient because it saves my bill. Do not go climate change on me. I'm going to freak out, Mark, because I've watched, I spent $6,000 on wash, front loader washing machines. I'm sick about it.

[Mark Lynch]

Yeah, well, again I'm not, I'm not for green stuff and all that, you know, I'm not. Thank you.

[Alex Stein]

Thank you.

[Mark Lynch]

But the washers, the front load washers save about $360 a year to use them compared to a top load. That's a real true savings story. They don't have a transmission so there's less to go wrong with them. Now. There's, there's good front loaders and there's bad. You know, Electrolux is one of the best in the front load laundry business. We, we show people that. And if people are open minded, we try to sell a front load washer in our store. If not, then we go to Speed Speed Queen. That's old traditional top load laundry. And there's a grass moot grassroots movement towards that. Alex. People want simplicity. They want something that'll just work and last. So boy, Speed Queen laundry has taken off in the last 20 years. They're the, like I said, they're the last of the Mohicans and they still make them like they used to.

[Alex Stein]

Well, that's what I like. Keep it simple, stupid. And the reason why I'm going on this diatribe too is that I want to try to express to the people that are interested in South Carolina and voting for you is you're a blue collar guy. You're a guy, you know about the front loader. You know how these things work. You're trying to save families $360 a year on their energy bills. While Lindsey Graham wants to make sure that they pay an extra $5,000 a year in taxes so he can blow up children in his school. So coming up after the break, we're going to dive a little bit deeper with Mr. Lynch about what he's going to do to try to usurp the candidate that's in charge right now, Lindsey Graham. That's coming up next.

Welcome back to After Hours on Real America's Voice.

[Alex Stein]

Welcome back to After Hours with Alex Stein right here on Real America's Voice. And we're talking to the great Mark Lynch. He is raised running in a contentious primary against one of our least favorite politicians, Lindsey Graham. Now Mark, I really enjoyed your campaign video and I love your blue collar approach because you know, I think one of the Biggest threats that we face. We want to talk about immigration, inflation, but it's really just a threat overall on the middle class. They don't want us to have a middle class. They don't want us to achieve the American dream. And I think you're probably like the dictionary definition of the American dream. You know, it's having a blue collar job and becoming really successful while beating out the people, big box stores in a game that's rigged against you. So I think that, you know, you are a good example of really what it takes to live the American dream. Now, I want to play this campaign ad. And has this campaign ad caused you any backlash?

[Mark Lynch]

I have to see which one which.

[Alex Stein]

Okay, let's play it. Let's play.

[Mark Lynch]

I'm Mark Lynch, a successful businessman and a lifelong South Carolinian. I've run my family business for 40 years, growing at 35 times debt free. South Carolinians are done with attorneys and career politicians. That's why I'm running for the United States Senate. America first means stop funding endless wars, reversing disastrous inflation, and creating jobs for Americans. Join me. Vote Mark Lynch, United States Senate, June 9th. I'm Mark lynch and I approve this message.

[Alex Stein]

Now, Mark, that looks politically correct, but if I remember right, was it Lindsey Graham who had a press conference that accused the people that are running against him as being anti Semitic? Nothing seemed anti semitic or politically incorrect about that ad.

[Mark Lynch]

Yeah, no, that's a great ad. We love that ad.

[Alex Stein]

Love that. I'm saying. But Lindsey Graham, how much has he attacked you personally? Because I know you've said you've actually been very. Everything I've seen. You haven't been too vicious, but you've been a little vicious, I guess I would say. But has he attacked you? What kind of heat has he brought upon you, Mark?

[Mark Lynch]

Well, he. Right now he has push cards, direct mail pieces, radio and TV ads saying that I'm. I'm for legalizing marijuana and cocaine. And that's a total. I would never do.

[Alex Stein]

Well, you do. Wait, time out. You just got my vote. Illegal cocaine and marijuana. Everybody go vote for Mark Lake. That's going to help you where? And I don't know, why would he put that on a flyer that might help you. But. Okay, sorry to cut you off. What were you saying?

[Mark Lynch]

And he's talking about my past. You know, back in 1984, I got arrested for trafficking cocaine. I had a bad time in my life or a bad year back then. And I went through a recovery treatment center. And I've been clean and sober over 40 years. I met my wife.

[Alex Stein]

TV timeout. TV timeout. Now I want to hear this story. Mark. First of all, everybody was on cocaine in 1984. But this makes me. I want to do. I want to. Can I donate money to your campaign today? We need you, Mark, because you've actually been in trouble. You've actually had to grind out there. That's my favorite thing. So what? So now he's calling you Pablo Escobar or something, like you were running some sort of drug trade or gimmick like that. And tell us how that horrible situation probably propelled you into the successful career that you've had.

[Mark Lynch]

Well, it did. You know, I had to come to the bottom to the end of Mark, and I was saved at 11. I went off with the wrong crowd, thought I could do it my way, and I came to the bottom of everything. I got broken spiritually, financially, emotionally, in every way. And I had to come to the end and. And reach back out to God and start my life over and surrender my will to him. And, you know, it's been a huge. Alex, just a wonderful testimony. My wife and I have helped thousands of men and women come out of the lies of addiction into freedom in Christ. Probably 20% of our staff, we have mentored and discipled and celebrate recovery and through 12 step programs and give them a second chance. You know, like I had. Some of our best people came from homeless conditions. They got their teeth fixed, got their trust back with their family, did their probation, finished all that. They've been drug free, doing awesome. Some of them have had keys to the store as managers for 30 years and retired. And it's just an awesome thing to see when people can turn their lives around and get through all that stuff and have a wonderful, wonderful career with us.

[Alex Stein]

Well, you know how I know Mark lynch is telling the God's honest truth? Because my family were in the bail bond business, so we've had to help rehabilitate a lot of people. And what you said really stuck out to me is that you help them get their teeth fixed. And I know that might sound like a small thing to other people, but once you use drugs, you get your teeth, you know, messed up, you lose some teeth, you're not confident, you're afraid to go to a job interview. And people don't realize that once you get your teeth fixed, it gives people that were struggling all sorts of new confidence. So the point I'm trying to make is you've actually helped people like how you described it. That's Literally, how you help somebody, you help them to make them look better, you help their confidence, you help their self esteem, and that's how you truly get somebody on the right path. So I just really appreciate that you're a person that's actually had some trials and tribulations and didn't just, you know, play a victim. You became a guy that went and really helped other people. I think that's incredible.

[Mark Lynch]

You know, on our website, Alex, we talked about my struggle with an addiction years ago, 42 years ago on the About Mark tab. And so this is. This is nothing new. I've given my testimony all over the state, at recovery centers, in church congregations, and help families with their sons and daughters. My wife works for the women. I work with the men. And so Lindsey thinks that this is something that's hurting us. It's actually awesome. And we get to give another testimony about what God did in our lives. So thank you, Lindsay.

[Alex Stein]

Yeah, thank you, Lindsay. And let's be real. I mean, I don't know what Lindsay does in his free time. I imagine it's pretty gross. But I think Lindsay's famous for drinking on Capitol Hill. I'm not trying to, you know, accuse him of being a drunk, but I don't. I don't think he's Mr. Sobriety, you know, Isn't that the kettle calling the pot black?

[Mark Lynch]

Yep. No, we've seen him on Fox News and other news interviews, and he looked pretty rough, very red in the face, and was kind of slurring his words some.

[Alex Stein]

Yes. I think they're famous clips now. Forget about. I don't want to have to go in the personal attack zone of Lindsey Graham because I think that his resume speaks for itself. But I know that you're in an uphill battle. So be honest with us. You've raised a lot of money, but you spent a lot of money. You spent a lot of time. Your family's involved in this, I guess. What do you really feel the outcome will be? Do you think he's defeatable? And I know you're going to say, well, I wouldn't run if he's defeatable. But I worry because he's got all these special interest groups and he's got all this money. He might be too big to fail. But I hope I'm wrong when I say that, Mark, and tell our viewers why you're going to beat him and how you can beat him.

[Mark Lynch]

Well, people love our platform. You know, Trump endorsed Lindsay back last February or March of 25. And it's funny because in 24 on Truth Social, he said, the only reason Lindsey's in office again is because I endorse him. It's my fault. Well, he endorsed him again. Everybody's scratching their head. They don't understand it. But I know Trump has a lean Senate majority, and he's. He's using Lindsay so he could get the big, beautiful bill and other bills across the finish line. And Trump's a businessman, and so that's what he's doing. But I know Trump will be happier with me. He won't have to babysit me. And the pulse across America and in South Carolina, Alex, is we, we appreciate Donald Trump. He's one of the greatest presidents we've ever had. But that endorsement won't save Lindsey this time. Everybody's done with Lindsey. They know he has a conservative voting record of 43%, a constitutional voting record, lifetime average of 57%. He's failing in every scorecard where we can see how our employees are doing in D.C. and so they know they're not getting what they're paying for. And so it's funny, because the Democrats have had a Democrat in Lindsey Graham. You know, when we. We launched our campaign, Breitbart News Organization contacted us, and they said, we've never seen Lindsey move to the right this early in a campaign cycle. And so what are y' all doing? Well, we gave him an article back with Obama's campaign when Paul Harstad, Obama's chief campaign pollsters, having a conversation they thought was a private email conversation with John Podesta. And they all agreed Lindsey would be the greatest ally to the Democrat Party they had ever had.

[Alex Stein]

And, you know, John Podesta. John Podesta. I had to cut you out. John Podesta is the biggest creep ever. I don't want to accuse him of anything too funny, Daddy, but if you guys don't know who John Podesta is, look him up and look up his leaked emails with Hillary Clinton. So you're telling me John Podesta was a huge supporter of Lindsey Graham? That makes me sick. I didn't know that, Mark.

[Mark Lynch]

Yes. And, you know, it's come out in the information about a month ago, as Lindsey's been on the board of USAID, that Trump closed last year that there was $122 million going to NGOs tied directly to Hamas and Al Qaeda. So he's getting 4.61 million from APAC currently. That's kind of a number we see out there on social media. And he's funding 122 million to the enemies of the nation. I would call that treason. You know, Sorry.

[Alex Stein]

Yeah.

[Mark Lynch]

That's not America first at all.

[Alex Stein]

No way. No way.

[Mark Lynch]

So. Well, when people hear that, even the establishment Republicans, I ask them, if you say you are a Republican, you cannot. You cannot vote for Lindsey Graham, if you understand the Republican creed and the oath that we take as a U.S. senator. And, you know, our forefathers, when they wrote the declaration, knew we were endowed by our Creator, the one true God, and with the certain unalienable rights. And the first one is the right to life. And Lindsay claims he's pro life, but on his U.S. senate webpage, he's for murdering babies in the womb up to 15 weeks. So, I'm sorry, that's not pro life.

[Alex Stein]

Yeah. And, you know, people always ask me, why are you conservative? Well, conservatives get things wrong. But I'll tell you this much. I am pro life, and so I'll always side on the conservative side because that's the side that actually wants to save babies instead of murder them in the womb. And if Lindsey Graham wants to abort babies up, you know, it's 15 weeks, I'm not surprised, because he's probably getting paid by some sort of Planned Parenthood organization. But I'm just speculating that that's all alleged. Now, before you go, I want you to tell us how they can support you. But I also want to ask you one question. I just. Because I only got you for another minute because your history and helping so many people recover off drugs and alcohol, were you ever able to work with Thomas Ravenel? I'm a huge Southern charm fan, and I love Thomas Ravenel for that TV show. Did you watch Southern Charm at all, Mark?

[Mark Lynch]

I have not, no.

[Alex Stein]

Oh, my gosh. Well, you got to watch it. Listen, I've been so lucky to go to usc. I've been to Clemson with Turning Point. I spent a lot of time in South Carolina, and I think Charleston is one of the most beautiful cities in America. And there's a reality show called Southern Charm, and Thomas Ravenel got arrested for cocaine on the show. And he's a great guy, and I think he was a senator. But you need to connect with Thomas Ravenel and help him out. But before we go, before we go, how can people support you and help you defeat Lindsey Graham?

[Mark Lynch]

All right. And he's defeatable. And, you know, the polls came out with Rasmussen. Alex, just real quick. You know, Lindsey's polling dropped to 41%. I was at 21, Paul Dan's when he was in, the race was at 11 and 24% were undecided on an informed ballot. When people know about my platform and know who I am, it reverses. Lindsey drops to 23%. I go to 34 with Paul still at 11. Paul took his name off the ballot April 10th after that poll came out and he fully endorsed me, which is just awesome. And so it's happening. Lindsay's going to get replaced. And people are asking, how can we help you? Here's how we help. Number one, we do this on our knees in prayer. Number two, get everybody that you know in your contact list, call your friends and family that you do life with. There's nothing better than word of mouth testimony and go, vote for me. Let's do this. I'm the guy that's willing to throw my name in the hat. I'm willing to go to D.C. every week and work for you and give you true conservative values that were, that were ready, you know, quit fighting all the things Lindsey's doing against us. Let's do this together. Go vote for me. Get together and, and help me get there. It's doable and we're winning all over the state. Our platform is winning. I've seen people that were Republican gop, old establishment guard in the state saying they're going to vote for their senior senator. And when we go over the things Lindsey's actually doing, just facts and videos of what he says about what he's doing, not me not throwing dirt or dirty laundry out there or something from 42 years ago, just what he's currently doing. And they said, man, I did. I didn't know any of that. You've changed our mind. Well, if you're really a true Republican, you've got to change your mind because he's not a Republican. So it's happening.

[Alex Stein]

It is happening.

[Mark Lynch]

Go to lynch4senate.com to our website and donate. It takes a lot of money, but we're not going to spend the kind of money Lindsay's spending. You know, Alex, sometimes when the appliances change and the new models come out, we can't give them away. People don't want the stuff that doesn't work anymore. They want the new, improved version.

[Alex Stein]

That's Mark language here. Yes, sir. So, Mark, thank you so much for joining us. Everybody needs to go support Mark and I really appreciate you making time. And once you get to Capitol Hill, the country will be better. And I guarantee the state of South Carolina will be in much better hands. So thank you, Mark. Have a good one. And we'll be watching.

[Mark Lynch]

Thank you, Alex. God bless.

[Alex Stein]

Yes, sir. All right guys, Coming up next, we dive deep into the Mike Brable Diana Rossini drama. Now they got caught renting a yacht on a lake. It's just messy as messy can be. That's coming up after the break.

[Alex Stein]

Thank you all so much for staying up late with us here watching After Hours with Alex Stein on a real America's Voice. The greatest freaking network in the world. And this is my secret. This is how I stay up late. It's called Soldier Fuel and it's a zero calorie, excuse me, five calorie, zero sugar energy drink that will keep you going all night long and it keeps this show rocking from night to night. This is my secret. If you guys want some, go to buy soldier fuel.com and if you feel so inclined, if you film yourself chugging some of this stuff, going crazy, oh, I love Soldier Fuel. You do something like that and you go to soldierfuel.comchallenge and upload it. And if we play your clip on the air, we will send you a free case of Soldier Fuel. So you can't beat that. That's free 99. And a part of all of our proceeds from Soldier Fuel goes to military veterans. So that's always good. Now, speaking of veterans, I got to talk about my girl, Diana Rossini, because she is a veteran in the sex military. That's right. She has been caught and exposed for cheating on her husband. And she has had two different children. And one of the children, her first one, was named Mike. And every single thing about this juicy, hot gossip regarding Mike Vrabel and Diana Rossini keeps getting crazier and crazier by the day. And I think the most alarming aspect of all of this is that Diana Rossini, if you don't know who she is, she's a longtime NFL analyst, very famous, you know, very connected. She was caught in a sexual tryst with the head coach of the New England Patriots, Mike Vrabel, on vacation in Arizona at a very high class, five star resort. Now, ever since these leaks went to the public, people are going back and finding tons and tons of Easter eggs from interviews conducted not only by Diana Rossini, but people interviewing Diana asking her about her marriage. And every time she gets asked about her marriage, she always talks about how it's not good. And I don't even want to play the clip, but there's a viral clip of her talking about, you know, what do you, what is something you close your eyes for? And she answers, having sex with your husband. That's what she said. Basically saying she's so grossed out about her husband, she has to close her eyes. So my point is this. She has been exposed for being an adulterer, and I feel bad for her husband. And her husband is also an executive at Shake Shack, one of my favorite hamburger places in America. I love their delicious cheese fries. I love their soda. I just love the vibes. The shakes are pretty good, too. And guess what? Shake Shack Stock is down 25% ever since this scandal broke. And I'm not kidding. You can fact check that. So I'm really worried about Diana's personal life. All the people that were affected by this that weren't Diana. Because the latest video that is going super viral online is Diana renting a boat With Coach Vrabel. We just played a second ago, but I kind of want to watch it again. You can just kind of show it next to me or there you go. So that's Vrabel, and that's Diana Rossini renting a boat while they both happen to be in the same city. And she is allegedly seven months pregnant in this video. Now everybody online is speculating who is the father of Diana's baby. And if I had to guess that she's on a baby cruise, seven months pregnant, that Mike Vraigle is probably the father. And what complicates this all even more is the fact that her first son was named Mike. And she also put out a tweet. Who are the best NFL head coaches named Mike? And guess what? She's not talking about Mike Tomlin, the former Pittsburgh Steelers coach. She was talking about Mike Vrabel. And at the time, he was the head coach of the Tennessee Titans. And this alleged affair was allegedly started while Vrabel was the head coach of the Tennessee Titans before he was working for the New England Patriots. Now I get it. Alex, why are we talking about these people's dirty laundry? Why is it such a big deal? Well, I think it's a big deal because, of course, we expect the NFL players to have love triangles and baby mama drama and paternity tests, basically, like living the life of somebody that would go on the TV show Maury. But Mike V. Is a Super bowl champion, a guy that's a head coach. He's supposed to be a leader of young men. He's supposed to be an example, and he's supposed to set that example correctly. But allegedly, if you just look at this, and I say this is all alleged, even though we do have pictures of him and Diana Rossini, this is the same guy that has a wife and kids that is turning his back on his own wife, the mother of his children. And to me, if I was a player playing for Mike Vrabel and I saw that he was doing that to his wife, it would just. I would lose all confidence in my head coach. Because if somebody will do that to their wife, cheat on their spouse with somebody that works in the media, and you feel like you can get away with it because she's also cheating on her spouse, you both have a lot to lose if it gets out. So you feel like, hey, we can both keep this secret. I think that is a special kind of evil, and that is what a psychopath would do. And maybe being a psychopath makes you a good NFL Head coach probably. I don't know. I mean, I. A lot of different attributes would probably make you a good NFL head coach. It would probably take a multitude of things to. To make you successful. And I'm sure Mike Vrabel has a lot of those attributes because he has been very successful as a head coach. But my point is this. If you have the ability to manipulate the woman that you love so much, the mother of your kids, then you would definitely manipulate the fan base, you would definitely manipulate the players, and you would definitely manipulate every single other person in your life. So, Mike Vrabel, I think you're a loser for doing this. I think this is a bad example that you set for all of the other players in the NFL that are probably cheating on their wives. And. And you should be doing better now. Diana Rossini, I feel a little less bad for you because you're probably just a 304 and you're probably just horny. And you had the opportunity to get with a Super bowl champion that's like six'4 and £275, and you want to go to pound town because you're a horny old woman and you're just a scumbag for cheating on your husband. So I feel like she was benefiting the most from this. And Mike Vrabel had the most to lose considering he has one of the most highest paid jobs in the United States of America. So for me, I'm really frustrated, I'm really sad, and I'm not going to stop talking about it. And I'm so excited for all of the Easter eggs that Diana laid for us in the past years that are coming back to light, like this boat video, like her tweets making fun of her husband. Because, listen, we want transparency in the government and we want transparency in sports. So this feels like a win for the American people. All right, guys. Well, it's been a great show.
