The Marc Cox Morning Show May 26, 2026: Heroes, Hypocrites & the Battle for America's Soul
1w ago02:20:01Tap to summarizeFrom the first note of the national anthem to the final word on the 2028 Democrat clown car, the Marc Cox Morning Show delivered four hours of truth, fire, and conservative common sense that no other show in St. Louis will give you. The show opened with a moving Memorial Day tribute that reminded every listener why freedom isn't free — and called out the Americans, the media figures, and yes, even a sitting mayor who chose to dishonor the day. Marc dismantled Megyn Kelly's claim that MAGA is dead with a scoreboard that says otherwise, while Lt. Col. William Swenson put a CBS anchor in her place with the most patriotic answer in recent memory. Kim on a Whim exposed a radical New York school discipline bill and dropped a bombshell update — the man in Planet Fitness's women's locker room was a registered child sex offender. John Lamping broke down Missouri's ballot bombshell, Andy Baker made the case for Amendment 4, and Sgt. Betsy Brantner-Smith connected the dots between defunded police, teen takeovers, and a generation nobody taught to respect the law. Todd Piro weighed in on Iran, Jackson Dart's bold Trump introduction, and why sports and politics make uneasy bedfellows. And Christian foster parents Shane and Jennifer DeGros proved that faith still wins in America — if you're willing to fight for it. This was the Marc Cox Morning Show at its very best — and we'll be back Wednesday at 5.

Transcribe →Hour 4: Faith Wins, Missouri Fights Back & the 2028 Democrat Clown Car Is Already Packed
1w ago00:32:19Tap to summarizeThe Marc Cox Morning Show closed out Tuesday strong with an hour that covered the full spectrum of what's at stake for conservatives right now. Marc opened with a Memorial Day tribute that put the Minneapolis mayor's shameful George Floyd post in stark relief — while President Trump and Vice President Vance honored the fallen at Arlington, the left was busy dishonoring the day. Andy Baker joined to sound the alarm on Amendment 4 and why Missouri's ten-week window to fix initiative petition reform is the most important vote most people aren't paying attention to yet. Then Marc delivered a victory for the ages — Christian foster parents Shane and Jennifer DeGros beat Washington state's gender ideology ultimatum in court, and the state had to cut a $250,000 check for their trouble. And to close it all out, Elizabeth Warren threw her headdress in the 2028 ring, AOC is touring primary states, and the Democrat clown car is filling up fast. Common sense versus crazy — that's the choice, and the Marc Cox Morning Show will be here every morning to make sure you're ready for it.

Transcribe →Andy Baker Draws the Line: Amendment 4 Is Missouri's Last Chance to Stop Out-of-State Billionaires from Hijacking Your Constitution
1w ago00:07:27Tap to summarizeTen weeks. That's all that stands between Missouri conservatives and their best shot in years at fixing a broken system that gave us unrestricted abortion and Clean Missouri. Andy Baker, spokesman for Protect Missouri Voters, joins the Marc Cox Morning Show to make the case for Amendment 4 — and it's a case every Missourian needs to hear. Right now, a single special interest group with enough out-of-state cash can permanently rewrite your state constitution with just 50% plus one. Amendment 4 would end that — requiring majority support in all eight congressional districts so that Kansas City and St. Louis can't steamroll the rest of Missouri forever. Marc and Kim break down why your eyes should NOT glaze over on this one, and why a yes vote in August could change Missouri politics for a generation. Don't let the billionaires win.

1w ago00:35:44Tap to summarizeHour 3 of the Marc Cox Morning Show came in swinging and never let up. Marc opened by dismantling Megyn Kelly's claim that MAGA is dead — with 21 primary wins as Exhibit A. Fox and Friends First host Todd Piro joined to untangle the Iran paradox and weigh in on Giants quarterback Jackson Dart's bold Trump introduction that set the sports world on fire. Then Sgt. Betsy Brantner-Smith of the National Police Association delivered a masterclass on why pool takeovers, defunded departments, and unchecked mental illness are a recipe for disaster in every American city. And Kim on a Whim closed the hour with a stomach-turning update — the man Planet Fitness allowed in the women's locker room is a registered child sex offender. The Marc Cox Morning Show goes where others won't, asks what others won't, and delivers the truth that every conservative American deserves to hear.

Transcribe →2A Tuesday: Sgt. Betsy Brantner-Smith Sounds the Alarm — Pool Takeovers, Defunded Cops & a Mental Health Crisis Nobody Wants to Fix
1w ago00:10:22Tap to summarizeShe's seen it all from behind the badge, and Sgt. Betsy Brantner-Smith is not mincing words. The National Police Association spokesperson joins the Marc Cox Morning Show to connect the dots between St. Louis's pool security crisis, the teen takeover epidemic sweeping the nation, and a generation of kids nobody taught to respect anyone's rights but their own. Then the conversation turns to the Local Law Enforcement Support Act of 2026, why your small-town police department is just as underfunded as Chicago's, and why Congresswoman Ann Wagner deserves credit for stepping up. Plus — the disturbing truth about the White House shooting suspect that every American needs to hear about mental illness, crime, and the system that keeps putting dangerous people back on the street. This is 2A Tuesday on the Marc Cox Morning Show, and Sgt. Betsy Brantner-Smith is pulling no punches.

Transcribe →Todd Piro Sounds Off: Iran Confusion, Jackson Dart's Bold Move & Why Sports and Politics Don't Mix
1w ago00:07:58Tap to summarizeFox and Friends First host Todd Piro joins the Marc Cox Morning Show and the gloves come off fast. The Iran ceasefire is holding — maybe — but nobody can quite explain how you're bombing someone and negotiating peace at the same time. Then the conversation shifts to New York Giants quarterback Jackson Dart, who introduced President Trump at a public event and set the sports world on fire. Todd breaks down why he loves the kid's guts but thinks he should have cleared it with the team first — and why a rookie teammate calling him out on social media was even worse. It's the intersection of football, freedom, and the culture wars, and nobody navigates it better than the Marc Cox Morning Show. Don't miss a snap.

Transcribe →Hour 2: Missouri's Ballot Bombshell, St. Louis on the Brink & John Lamping Tells You What's Really at Stake
1w ago00:36:03Tap to summarizeHour 2 of the Marc Cox Morning Show hit like a freight train — and it didn't slow down for a second. Marc opened with the Iran situation and why getting it right matters more than getting it fast, then the St. Louis Morning Brief laid bare a city struggling to keep its head above water — armed guards at public pools, RAM money debates, and a Bank of America building selling for pennies. Then John Lamping joined to break down the governor's ballot bombshell — ten weeks to decide the fate of Missouri's income tax, the pro-life amendment, and initiative petition reform. And In Other News closed it out with robo-taxis holding commuters hostage, driverless semi trucks headed for your highway, and Don Jr. saying "I do" in the Bahamas. One thing's for sure — nobody covers your world like the Marc Cox Morning Show.

Transcribe →John Lamping Sounds the Alarm: Missouri's Biggest Ballot Battles Are Coming Faster Than You Think
1w ago00:11:58Tap to summarizeTen weeks. That's all Missouri voters have before some of the most consequential ballot decisions in state history get decided — and most people don't even know it's coming. John Lamping joins the Marc Cox Morning Show to break down Governor Kehoe's Friday bombshell: which major amendments are headed to August, which stay in November, and what the political chess game really looks like behind closed doors. From the pro-life fight to eliminating Missouri's income tax to initiative petition reform, Lamping pulls no punches — including which amendment he fears is being quietly sacrificed. If you're a Missouri conservative who cares about lower taxes, protecting life, and stopping special interests from hijacking your constitution, this is the segment you cannot afford to sleep through.

Transcribe →St. Louis Morning Brief: Armed Guards at Public Pools, RAM Money Debates & A City on the Brink
1w ago00:07:30Tap to summarizeSt. Louis is unraveling in slow motion, and the Marc Cox Morning Show has the receipts. Police are stretched so thin they've had to abandon security at public pools — leaving the city scrambling for private guards just so kids can swim safely this summer. Then there's $110 million in RAM settlement money on the table, and the debate over whether it can actually save North City or just delay the inevitable. The Bank of America building goes to auction for pennies on the dollar, a mother brings her three-year-old to a street takeover, and Coldwater Creek contamination is spreading. This is your St. Louis Morning Brief — the stories your city needs to face honestly, and the only place giving it to you straight.

Transcribe →Hour 1: Heroes, Hypocrites & the Media's War on American Optimism
1w ago00:35:54Tap to summarizeThe Marc Cox Morning Show kicked off the week with a first hour that hit harder than a Monday morning should — and it didn't let up for a single second. From a tear-jerking Memorial Day ceremony that too few Americans bother to attend, to Marco Rubio walking a tightrope with Iran while bombs are still falling, Marc set the stage for a show that refuses to flinch from the truth. Megyn Kelly declared MAGA dead — Marc Cox buried that argument with facts. A New York bill wants to strip discipline from your children's classrooms in the name of equity, and Kim on a Whim called it exactly what it is. Then a wounded warrior sat a smug CBS anchor back on her heels and reminded every American why this is still the greatest country on earth. One hour down, three to go — and the Marc Cox Morning Show is just getting started.
