You're listening to American Ground Radio with Louis R. Avallone and Stephen Parr. This is the full show for April 10, 2026.

We kick things off with a conversation about boldness, confidence, and what it means to expect greatness — and that leads us straight to President Trump's proposed 250-foot triumphal arch to mark America's 250th anniversary. We dig into whether this gold-emblazoned monument is the unapologetic celebration of American greatness that this country deserves, or whether an arch — historically a symbol of military conquest — is the right way to tell America's story. We land somewhere interesting, and we think you will too.

Then we go deeper into the Dignidad Act — the amnesty bill working its way through the House with 19 Republican signatures on it. The Federalist ran a piece on the eight most insane provisions buried inside this bill, and we walk through the worst of them. Lawyers get student loan forgiveness for helping illegal immigrants stay in the country. Deported aliens can come right back in. Illegal immigrants don't have to pay FICA taxes — giving their employers an unfair advantage over every business following the law. And if you're in the country illegally and get convicted of DWI, theft, fraud, assault, or domestic violence? You still get to stay. We call this what it is — amnesty on top of amnesty — and we name the Republicans who should be ashamed of themselves for signing on.

Our American Mamas Teri Netterville and Kimberly Burleson join us to break down the Rupert Murdoch documentary and what it reveals about entitlement, greed, and what money and power do to people over time. We get into why Murdoch's kids felt entitled to a fortune they didn't build, how greed changes people in Washington the same way it changes people in Hollywood, and why Trump and Elon Musk are two of the rare exceptions to the rule that absolute power corrupts absolutely.

In our Digging Deep segment, Disney quietly brought back "ladies and gentlemen" to its park greetings after dropping the phrase in 2021 in favor of "dreamers of all ages." We dig into what that reversal actually signals about where the culture is heading — and what happened to Disney's stock price in the years between.

We also respond to Jodi Foster, Ben Stiller, Spike Lee, Pedro Pascal, Madonna, and Mark Ruffalo demanding the closure of the Dilley Immigration Processing Center in Texas. We explain exactly why these celebrities have zero credibility on this issue and remind everyone what was actually happening to immigrant children during the Biden administration.

And we close out with Fake News Friday — we run through the week's wildest headlines and challenge you to sort the real from the fake. Canada's new pride acronym alone is worth tuning in for. Plus, words of wisdom about the moon in honor of the Artemis II crew safely splashing down in the Pacific Ocean tonight.
