Hour 3 opens with a pushback against alarming media coverage of a reported hantavirus case, arguing the risk is being overstated and not comparable to COVID-era fears. The show then pivots to a detailed legal breakdown with Hans von Spakovsky on redistricting fights in Tennessee, Alabama, and Virginia, focusing on how courts are reshaping Voting Rights Act interpretations and rejecting flawed mapping efforts. In the middle of the hour, Dan Buck introduces a new Buck Stops Here music feature centered on Tom McDonald’s “Anti,” sparking a broader debate about censorship, culture wars, and political messaging in music. The hour closes with “Kim on a Whim,” reacting to a proposed policy to revoke or deny passports for individuals with unpaid child support, weighing enforcement practicality against government overreach and existing collection mechanisms.
