Host: Joe Bob (with segments by Monica Page and guest Hannah Faulkner)
Date: October 25, 2025
Episode Overview
This episode of Turning Point Tonight features Joe Bob broadcasting from San Antonio while on tour with Megyn Kelly. With the recurrent theme of “charting America’s cultural comeback,” Joe Bob and guests dive into the alleged misrepresentation of President Reagan’s trade policies, debate media and liberal narratives around crime and abortion, lampoon a Sacramento Bee opinion piece on trucking policy, and discuss the DOJ’s response to threats from Nancy Pelosi regarding federal agents in California. The show wraps up with reports from White House Correspondent Monica Page, a satirical look at MSNBC’s coverage, and listener-submitted viral videos.
Segment 1: Setting the Stage & Tour Updates
[01:13-03:50]
- Joe Bob reports from a hotel room in San Antonio, sharing details of the ongoing tour with Megyn Kelly, Don Jr., and Jesse Kelly.
- Lighthearted notes include:
- Don Jr.’s sarcastic “endorsement” of Kamala Harris for 2028 (no context given).
- Megyn Kelly’s offbeat comment that “Hunter Biden is making her curious to try crack cocaine" (relayed humorously and intentionally out of context).
Quote:
“Donald Trump Jr. endorsed Kamala Harris for the democratic nomination for president in 2028. So that was hilarious... Megyn Kelly almost verb said Hunter Biden is making her curious to try crack cocaine.”
— Joe Bob [02:20]
Segment 2: The Tariff Wars, Reagan, and Alleged Media Misrepresentation
[05:13-13:48]
- Main Issue: Ontario’s government releases a $75M anti-tariff ad in the US, featuring a selective Reagan speech clip warning against tariffs.
- Joe Bob argues:
- The clip misrepresents Reagan’s full views.
- The omitted section has Reagan supporting tariffs as leverage in response to unfair trade (as with Japanese semiconductors).
- The context is different—Trump is using tariffs to seek reciprocity and fairness, not as blanket economic policy.
- The Reagan Foundation has condemned the ad for being deceitful and unauthorized.
- Joe Bob critiques left-leaning outlets (like Midas Touch) for “lying about lying,” perpetuating disinformation despite primary source availability.
- “Libs just lie,” is credited as a quote from Jesse Kelly, speaking to alleged differences in moral and ethical standards.
Notable Quote:
“President Reagan says, oh, yeah, in this particular situation where things are unfair... using leverage in order to get it back to fairness. I feel like there’s somebody currently in the White House that’s trying to do the same thing... Oh, it’s exactly what President Trump is trying to do.”
— Joe Bob [08:59]
Segment 3: Chicago Crime Debate (with Hannah Faulkner)
[16:55-22:51]
- Governor J.B. Pritzker interviewed by Brett Baier: Denies Chicago’s high murder rate, claiming improvements.
- Joe Bob & Hannah Faulkner critique Pritzker’s statistical dodge, liken it to boasting about fewer daily face punches.
- Faulkner ties high crime to strict gun control and the removal of law-abiding citizens’ rights, and portrays Democratic leadership as disconnected and evasive.
Quote:
“If you’re getting punched in the face 30 times a day... you say, well, let’s just say that gets cut in half... Politicians like Pritzker will go out and say, well, look, we’ve cut our murder rate in half. Which is like saying, I now only get punched in the face 15 times a day.”
— Joe Bob [20:55]
Segment 4: Abortion, Colorado Clinic & Pro-Life Movement
[22:51-26:58]
- Joe Bob introduces the Boulder, CO clinic offering “third-trimester abortions for any reason,” noting critics claim “it’s not happening” even as they defend the right.
- Hannah Faulkner:
- Challenges the narrative of abortion being “safe, legal, and rare.” States that most abortions are for convenience, not health crises.
- Alleges Democrats want “abortion up until birth” and accuses them of promoting a “party of death.”
- Warns pro-life activists not to celebrate clinic closures, arguing that Planned Parenthood is shifting to mail-order abortion pills.
- Raises chemical abortion as the new front in pro-life activism.
Quote:
“Now they can send it [the abortion pill] to a minor, they can send it to anyone and nobody will ever know about it because it’s in a chemical abortion pill, which is 60% of abortions right now, to a mailbox near you.”
— Hannah Faulkner [25:32]
Segment 5: Sacramento Bee Op-Ed – Truckers, Race, and Immigration Law
[27:08-32:45]
- Sacramento Bee op-ed claims new Trump administration trucking license restrictions (on non-citizens) hurt Sikhs and are racist.
- Joe Bob rebuts:
- Clarifies rule prevents commercial licenses for those here on temporary work authorization (i.e., not Americans).
- Questions why non-citizens, or those with pending asylum claims, should have licenses for “effectively a weapon” like a big rig.
- Criticizes “conflating legal and illegal immigration.”
- Asserts opposition is not about race or religion, only legal status.
Quote:
“The only thing that matters is, are you here legally? Are you supposed to be in this country? And if you’re not, why in God’s name would we give you permissions—elevated permissions, like a CDL—to drive a truck that is effectively a weapon?”
— Joe Bob [30:25]
Segment 6: DOJ Rebukes Pelosi on Federal Agents in California
[32:45-39:11]
- Nancy Pelosi claims California might arrest federal agents who “break state law” (regarding sanctuary status, ICE agents wearing masks).
- Joe Bob explains:
- Highlights the legal and constitutional hierarchy: Federal law supersedes state law.
- Praises the DOJ’s strong stand warning against arresting federal agents.
- Critiques California’s “ridiculous” law and frames the DOJ’s response as a much-needed reassertion of federal authority.
Quote:
“The rebuke that has been issued by the DOJ and the Trump administration saying, no, you can’t arrest federal agents, and if you do, you will be sorry. It’s nice to see. It’s nice to see somebody actually standing up for the law.”
— Joe Bob [36:27]
Segment 7: From the White House – With Monica Page
[39:11-45:43]
- Monica Page appears live from outside the White House, humorously debunking social media rumors that it’s been demolished.
- Discusses President Trump’s imminent Asia trip to Malaysia, Japan, South Korea; focus on trade, tariffs, and fentanyl crisis.
- Offers behind-the-scenes stories about Trump’s tireless work ethic, corroborated by Don Jr.’s anecdotes of being outworked during campaign season.
- Jokes about press pool’s need to be instantly ready for unscheduled “gaggles” with the president.
Quote:
“The man just doesn’t sleep. Maybe he gets four hours max when he does get some rest. But he’s always working, he’s always talking to people. I don’t know how he does it.”
— Monica Page [43:35]
Segment 8: Mocking Media Narratives & Viral Videos
[47:15-53:10]
- MSNBC Clip: Satire around accusations of “horrible sexism” in the Virginia governor’s race, despite both major candidates being women—one of whom is black.
- Joe Bob lampoons the idea, points out absurdity of claiming sexism when a woman is guaranteed to win.
- Rachel Maddow “Crying” Meme: (Unverified) reaction to news Comcast (MSNBC’s parent) donated to the White House ballroom addition; Joe Bob debates whether it’s performance or genuine, calls it “masterclass in acting or a lunatic.”
- Producer Glenn’s “Spicy Videos”: A street interview segment in which young people can’t identify the years of World War I or II—used for comic effect and commentary on civic education.
Quote:
“They can vote, and their vote counts the same as my vote. When Was World War I, World War II? I don’t know. The 1600s, when Christopher Columbus came over and colonized the Indian. What? ... I’m sad for this country that those people are the way they are.”
— Joe Bob [52:47]
Notable Quotes
- On lying and media:
“It’s very, very difficult for you and I to put ourselves in that headspace... Very difficult for a person like me or you to even envision what that would look like.” [09:41] - On the “party of death :”
“But it’s no coincidence. This is the party of death, as we’ve been talking about.” — Hannah Faulkner [25:49] - On California law vs federal law:
“Federal government supersedes any state laws, especially ones that are gonna get thrown out by the courts anyways.” [35:04] - On campaign trail energy:
“I was so tired, I couldn’t even enjoy it.” — Don Jr., relayed by Monica Page [43:18]
