## Resource

Steve says regardless of the economic impact of the war in Iran or the outcomes of the midterm elections, if you can't appreciate what the U.S. did rescuing a stranded airman while simultaneously sending astronauts farther than any human has ever gone in space, you might just hate America. Then Bob Vander Plaats joins the program to discuss what suggestions he has for Republicans to run on in November. In Hour Two, it's another round of Ask Deace Anything, featuring questions from Steve's audience on Facebook.
