In this episode, Radell sits down with Che Ahn, a Korean-American pastor and Republican candidate for California Governor 2026, to discuss the state's most pressing issues. From the California homelessness crisis and Prop 36 enforcement to affordable housing, gas prices, and the Pacific Palisades fires, this conversation dives deep into policy solutions and the role of faith-based organizations in addressing poverty and drug rehabilitation.

Ahn shares his immigrant story, his vision for cutting California regulations, expanding nuclear energy, and bringing what he calls a "spiritual revival" to Sacramento. Radell pushes back on key claims, asking tough questions about concrete policy plans and the separation of church and state.

Whether you lean left, right, or somewhere in betweenthis is political solutions without political bias.
