On this episode of The Big Ben Show, Ben Domenech opens with the fallout from the Virginia Supreme Court’s decision on Democrats’ redistricting push, the national reaction from party leaders and media figures, and why the fight over maps became a revealing test of political overreach.

Next, Adam Carolla joins the show to explain why California has become nearly impossible to rebuild, especially in Malibu and the Palisades. Adam and Ben discuss overregulation, the “safety first” mentality, the Coastal Commission, and whether California voters are ready to reject the politics that keep the state stuck.

Later, Rachel Campos-Duffy joins Ben to discuss her new book, "All American Patriotism: Celebrating 250 Years of America’s Greatness,” the importance of family road trips, and why love of country should be passed down through stories, travel, and gratitude.
