Bill Whittle, Scott Ott and Steve Green bring you three different perspectives on three of the week’s top stories, with penetrating analysis, assorted-grade humor, and just a pinch of artisanally-selected, steel-cut snark; plus, an informal, wide-ranging, hour-long Member’s Only Backstage show: every week, without fail, since 2014.
There is a proposal on the table to pay $1,000 to every illegal alien willing to return home voluntarily.

Bill Whittle brings us something different this week to show us the power of human potential.
From Genesis to the Green Lantern, we humans have learned all of our moral values from the stories we tell to one another. In this brand-new series, host Bill Whittle will be having in-depth discussions with the mechanics that build our stories, as well as discussing the mechanics of how a good story is built. Confirmed so far are Jon Voight, Gary Sinise, Mike Rowe, Tom Dreesen, Adam Baldwin, Burt Rutan, Dick Rutan and Kelly Carlson, with more to follow. While we will release snippets from each episode, in the main this will be Members-Only content for the Citizen Producers here at BillWhittle.com.
Jon Voight reveals how to play The Heart of Gold and does a beat-by-beat walkthrough of Midnight Cowboy
Gary Sinise on Ken Mattingly and Supertruth in Apollo 13 and returning from the dead in Forrest Gump
Tom Dreesen uses his impeccable comic timing to kill with a joke, plus life on the road with Sinatra
Adam Baldwin on how to walk a fine line as the Tough Guy, and how to deadpan for a laugh in Firefly
Aeronautical design genius Burt Rutan talks about building his own space program and how to think outside the box.
Kelly Carlson on how a nice girl plays the femme fatale on Nip/Tuck and reflects on some of the dangers that come with celebrity.
The living embodiment of the Steely-Eyed Missile Man, Dick Rutan talks about driving the Hun low and fast over Vietnam and flying for nine days without sleeping.
One thing and one thing alone remains the foundation of the human experience: THE STORY.

Mike and Bill discuss their methods used to reduce stage fright in this most stressful of storytelling scenarios.
I don’t think a day goes by without me seeing something genuinely wondrous on the internet, and so I finally decided that I would have to share them with as many people as I could. No politics here: just the weird and the wonderful without the slightest order or method. Just sit back and enjoy.
She was called ‘The Most Beautiful Woman that Ever Lived.’ They may have been right.
Distributed Intelligence is such a difficult thing for elitists to understand… not so much intellectually as emotionally.
