06-16-26 Part Two - Who Wants To Be a Trillionaire?
In part two of Red Eye Radio with Gary McNamara and Eric Harley, we pose the question: Does Elon Musk becoming a trillionaire take dollars out of America's economic cash-flow? Actually it's the opposite effect. Billionaires (and one trillionaire) creates jobs and stimulates the economy. Wal Mart and Amazon being just two examples. Now that the world has one trillionaire, we will see how the markets and the economic landscape will be affected (if at all). Also audio from comedian Jimmy Carr on "life dysmorphia" / and valuing life and what we have vs. aspiring to create an insurmountable amount of money.

06-12-26 Part One - A Random Memorandum
In part one of Red Eye Radio with Gary McNamara and Eric Harley, President Trump announced that the United States has reached a "very strong, but a little conceptual "Memorandum of Understanding" to end the ongoing war with Iran. The announcement followed a dramatic turn of events where President Trump called off scheduled U.S. military airstrikes against Iranian infrastructure. Trump noted that the text is in its final stages and could be signed over the weekend in Europe, with Vice President JD Vance expected to attend. However, Iranian officials and state-backed media have maintained a cautious stance, downplaying the finality of the text. Also the President's voter base questions his latest decision on the war / a look back at memorable moments in sports / and a FIFA World Cup update (yawn) For more talk on the issues that matter to you, listen on radio stations across America Monday-Friday 12am-5am CT (1am-6am ET and 10pm-3am PT), download the RED EYE RADIO SHOW app, asking your smart speaker, or listening at RedEyeRadioShow.com.

In part one of Red Eye Radio with Gary McNamara and Eric Harley, as more details surface about the firing of '60 Minutes' veteran correspondent Scott Pelly, we begin to see the outright lies perpetrated to interviewers and viewers.

Also the inflation numbers are out and Trump should never say he "loves inflation" / Trump "sneaks" oil through the Strait of Hormuz / The President admits he's being "played" by Iran / Democrats demand security checks for Trump intelligence pick Bill Pulte / the "gestating parent" bill deemed as woke nonsense in Hempstead Township, NY / Trump and Stephen A. Smith in a war of words.
