The Trey Gowdy Podcast

As America’s 250th anniversary looms, Trey steps back from the daily headlines to ask a deeper question: How did a nation that endured so much become so divided? From the coarsening of culture at the Grammys to the way politics and the media operate, he argues we’ve drifted away from basic, timeless values like fairness, honesty, and respect. Trey challenges listeners to move beyond slogans and “lapel-pin politics” and rediscover the shared values needed to preserve the American experiment for the next generation.
