Live From Studio 6B — Monday, November 10, 2025 (Real America's Voice)

Episode Overview Live From Studio 6B delivers another fast-paced, irreverent episode focused on current events through the unapologetically conservative, populist lens that’s become its trademark. In this episode, the panel jumps from tongue-in-cheek banter and sports recaps to in-depth segments on capitalism, the government shutdown, election law, and the influence of NGOs – all before handing over to LIVE coverage of Turning Point USA’s event at UC Berkeley.

Main Theme

Unfiltered Conservative Commentary on News, Politics, and American Culture
This episode centers on the battle of ideas in the U.S.: capitalism vs. socialism, government overreach, and the state of American freedoms. Threaded throughout are reactions to the ongoing government shutdown, debates over healthcare and election law, plus a heavy dose of sports updates and cultural observations, all with RAV’s signature punchy humor and camaraderie.
