During the third hour of The Charlie James Show on Monday, June 8, 2026, guest host Heidi Harris examined domestic and strategic angles of the conflict with Iran before transitioning to local politics. Harris began by analyzing the stark political divide over the war, noting that Donald Trump's base defends the military efforts while the left condemns his actions. She then reiterated her stance that the U.S. is not winning the Iran war because Trump fundamentally misunderstands the enemy, a point that sparked listener call-ins focused on the strategic importance of the Strait of Hormuz. The hour concluded with a shift to local affairs, featuring an interview with Joe Deal, a candidate running for Greenville County Council District 17.
