Today on The John Lovell Show, I’m joined by Graham Allen — one of the boldest voices in the conservative movement, and a man who stepped into a new arena working communications tied to the Pentagon while still running his media platform.

We get into what Washington D.C. is really like behind the curtain, why the system resists change at every level, and what it costs a man to fight that fight day after day.

From there we zoom out to the bigger picture: the conservative movement fracturing, influencers and personalities turning into rival camps, the generational divide growing wider, and why so many people feel like something is breaking in real time.

And finally, we land the plane where it matters most — faith, family, contentment, and the danger of grinding your life away chasing the wrong thing.

Buckle up… here we go.
