We The People

In this episode of We The People, Gates Garcia sits down with writer and cultural commentator Bethany Mandel to talk about raising families and preserving values in a culture that feels increasingly hostile to both. Bethany, co-author of Stolen Youth, explains how “woke” ideology is reshaping classrooms, parenting, and even childhood itself — and why parents must be on guard. She shares her perspective as a mother of six, her journey into conservative commentary, and her fight to push back against narratives that strip kids of innocence and parents of authority. Together, she and Gates unpack what it takes to raise strong families, how faith shapes resilience, and why culture wars ultimately come down to the home. This episode is a powerful reminder that protecting children is at the heart of protecting freedom. #BethanyMandel #WeThePeople #StolenYouth #FaithAndFamily #CultureWar #Parenting #Conservatism Follow We The People and Gates Garcia across Social Media: Twitter – https://x.com/GatesGarciaFL Instagram – https://www.instagram.com/gatesgarciafl/ YouTube – https://www.youtube.com/@WeThePeopleShow Website – https://www.wethepeoplemedia.com 🎧 Subscribe to the Podcast: RSS Feed – https://wethepeoplemedia.podbean.com/ Apple Podcasts – https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/we-the-people/id1794018527 Amazon Music – https://music.amazon.com/podcasts/5a7b37f9-9bd0-4316-8855-da4dd2f3e9ea/we-the-people BoomPlay – https://www.boomplaymusic.com/podcasts/123190 iHeart Radio – https://www.iheart.com/podcast/1323-we-the-people-262185022/ Spotify – https://open.spotify.com/show/6OJKGIXs751PN9qFL1FcJl We The People with Gates Garcia is recorded at the We The People Media studios in Tampa, FL, and produced by Gates Garcia.

In this episode of We The People, Gates Garcia sits down with comedian and commentator Jobob to talk about the power of humor in an age of outrage. Known for his sharp satire and unapologetic delivery, Jobob explains why comedy is one of the last bastions of free speech — and why truth is often funniest when it makes people uncomfortable. From the cultural battles raging on college campuses to the role of social media in shaping young minds, he shares how laughter can disarm hostility and open doors that anger never could. Together, they explore why reality always “bats last,” the need to stay grounded in traditional values, and how conservative comedy is really just regular comedy that refuses to bow to the mob. This conversation is a reminder that courage and joy are contagious — and that both are desperately needed in America today. #Jobob #WeThePeople #Comedy #Satire #FreeSpeech #FaithAndCulture #StandForTruth Follow We The People and Gates Garcia across Social Media: Twitter – https://x.com/GatesGarciaFL Instagram – https://www.instagram.com/gatesgarciafl/ YouTube – https://www.youtube.com/@WeThePeopleShow Website – https://www.wethepeoplemedia.com 🎧 Subscribe to the Podcast: RSS Feed – https://wethepeoplemedia.podbean.com/ Apple Podcasts – https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/we-the-people/id1794018527 Amazon Music – https://music.amazon.com/podcasts/5a7b37f9-9bd0-4316-8855-da4dd2f3e9ea/we-the-people BoomPlay – https://www.boomplaymusic.com/podcasts/123190 iHeart Radio – https://www.iheart.com/podcast/1323-we-the-people-262185022/ Spotify – https://open.spotify.com/show/6OJKGIXs751PN9qFL1FcJl We The People with Gates Garcia is recorded at the We The People Media studios in Tampa, FL, and produced by Gates Garcia.

Corey opens up about growing up in the garage, chasing his dream of racing at the Cup Series level, and how fatherhood and faith reshaped what winning really means.
