Prediction Markets, Epstein, and Making Good Christian Epics | The Big Ben Show

Ben Domenech dives into the high stakes of the Super Bowl, exploring the $2 billion gambling surge and the national security risks posed by unregulated prediction markets. He is joined by New York Post correspondent Lydia Moynihan to discuss the "quality of life" collapse in NYC under socialist policies, the tragic consequences of ending forced-shelter laws for the homeless, and the ongoing media battle over ICE operations in Minnesota. The conversation shifts to the culture war in cinema with film producer Dallas Sonnier, who breaks down the making of the Daily Wire’s epic seriesThe Pendragon Cycle. Sonnier details why Hollywood’s "ideological bankruptcy" has created a vacuum for conservative creators and explains his commitment to practical effects over "AI slop". Ben concludes with a sharp critique of the Washington Post following a massive wave of layoffs and the shuttering of its iconic sports section. 🎙️ Listen and SUBSCRIBE for more candid conversations on speech, culture, media power and politics.
