Phillies Home Opener…Is Anyone Even Listening?
The Rich Zeoli Show- Full Episode:
3:05pm- Rich opens the show right as the Philadelphia Phillies kick off their home opener—he hilariously begs the audience to turn down the volume on their televisions and listen to his show on the radio or Audacy app. Plus, Rich explains why the family that stacks wood outdoors together stays together…wait, what?
3:15pm- On Thursday, former President Donald Trump attended the wake of fallen New York City Police Officer Jonathan Diller. Officer Diller, 31-years-old, was fatally shot during a traffic stop earlier this week in Massapequa, NY. Speaking from outside the wake, Trump said “this is a horrible thing and it’s happening all too often”—noting that the man accused of killing Officer Diller had been previously arrested on numerous occasions, and yet was allowed to go free each time.
3:20pm- While appearing on a Meet the Press Now panel on Thursday, former U.S. Congressman Joe Crowley (D-NY) was asked about polls indicating President Joe Biden trails Republican presidential candidate Donald Trump in a vast majority of swing states, as well as head-to-head nationally. Crowley bizarrely compared Biden’s struggles to Abraham Lincoln: “Go back to 1864. Abraham Lincoln thought he was going to lose the election.”
3:30pm- A series of new studies, including one from Johns Hopkins professor Steve Hanke and President of American Commitment’s Phil Kerpen, indicate that the Covid-19 lockdowns did far more harm than good.
3:50pm- According to reports, the Federal Bureau of Investigation visited the home of a Muslim woman in Oklahoma after she shared pro-Palestinian posts on Meta-owned social media platform Facebook. Similarly, White House press reporter Simon Ateba shared news that the FBI showed up at the home of a notable Donald Trump supporter on X. Is speech on social media now being policed by the federal government?
4:05pm- Attorney Matt Rooney—Founder of SaveJersey.com—joins The Rich Zeoli Show to discuss a federal judge ending New Jersey’s controversial “county line” ballot system which offered premier balloting position to candidates backed by party bosses. Rooney hosts The Matt Rooney Show on 1210 WPHT (Sunday’s 7pm to 10pm).
4:20pm- Baseball season is upon us, and Rich offers his signature play-by-play commentary for the Philadelphia Phillies’ home opener against the Atlanta Braves.
4:30pm- Dr. Victoria Coates—Former Deputy National Security Advisor & the Vice President of the Davis Institute for National Security and Foreign Policy at The Heritage Foundation—joins The Rich Zeoli Show to discuss her recent editorial for Fox News, “The Way to Cuba’s Heart is Through the Internet.” She writes: “Cuba’s repressive Communist dictatorship relies on more than brute force to oppress its people. The Castros and their successors keep Cubans in line by controlling what information they can receive and transmit. That’s why, when demonstrations against shortages of food and other necessities began on March 17, the regime cut the state-provided internet to stop the protesters from coordinating online, and from sharing their videos worldwide…SpaceX’s Starlink has famously been providing reliable satellite-based internet access to Ukraine in a war zone for more than two years. Given the contracts SpaceX has with the U.S. Department of Defense, DoD can direct the company to provide the service to partners in distress such as Ukraine. Surely, America would also want to help the people of Cuba marching for their freedom. Which then begs the question: Why is this direction not coming from the Biden administration?” You can read the full editorial here: https://www.foxnews.com/opinion/way-cubas-heart-through-internet. Dr. Coates is the author of “David’s Sling: A History of Democracy in Ten Works of Art.” You can find her book here: https://www.amazon.com/Davids-Sling-History-Democracy-Works/dp/1594037213.
4:50pm- Richard Fausset and Danny Hakim of The New York Times write: “Lawyers for former President Donald J. Trump and eight of his co-defendants in the Georgia election interference case asked an appeals court on Friday to take up their challenge of a judge’s ruling that allowed the prosecutor Fani T. Willis to stay on the case. With their application to appeal, the defendants are once again pressing their argument that Ms. Willis, the Fulton County district attorney, created an untenable conflict of interest by having a romantic relationship with the special prosecutor she hired to manage the Trump case.” You can read the full article here: https://www.nytimes.com/2024/03/29/us/trump-appeal-georgia-fani-willis.html
5:00pm- Dr. Wilfred Reilly—Professor of Political Science at Kentucky State University & Author of “Lies My Liberal Teacher Told Me”—joins The Rich Zeoli Show to discuss an incredible story about Vanderbilt University students calling 911 over a tampon during a ridiculous protest inside an administrative building on campus. Plus, does the American military actually use clips from The View to torture dissidents abroad?

5:40pm- On Thursday, former President Donald Trump attended the wake of fallen New York City Police Officer Jonathan Diller. Officer Diller, 31-years-old, was fatally shot during a traffic stop earlier this week in Massapequa, NY.

5:45pm- Earlier this month, the House of Representatives voted in favor of the Protecting Americans from Foreign Adversary Controlled Applications Act—a bill that would force TikTok’s parent company ByteDance to divest its ownership in the social media application, citing its ties to the Chinese government. If they did not divest, the application would be banned in the United States. While appearing on a podcast, PayPal co-founder David Sacks explained in great detail how this bill could be used by an aggressive, far-left Department of Justice to force Elon Musk to sell X or potentially ban Donald Trump-owned Truth Social.
