What Makes A Nonprofit Actually Effective?

Outrageous Medicaid fraud in Ohio, a 78-page Biden administration plan to push gender ideology into child welfare agencies, and an embed with ICE agents in Minneapolis at the height of the unrest. Three investigations, three Dao Prize nominations, and the reporters who broke them.

On this episode of Behind the Story, Tim Rice sits down with Daily Wire senior investigative reporter Luke Rosiak, investigative reporter Meg Brock, and immigration reporter Jenny Taer to peel back the curtain on their intensive, change-making investigations. 

They discuss how each story came together, why the mainstream press keeps turning a blind eye to important stories like these, where citizen journalism helps and where it falls short, and what they’ll be digging into as divided government returns to Washington next year.

Inside The Movement Dumbing Down American Schools

Republicans suffered a historic midterm defeat, putting the final two years of Donald Trump’s presidency and the future of the GOP in question. Daily Wire Managing Editor Dylan Houseman joins Tim Rice to examine what drove the Republican wipeout, from the Iran war and Trump's political baggage to candidate quality and voter frustration. They examine whether the results mark the beginning of the end of MAGA, why Democrats could face their own internal battles despite sweeping victories, and whether Republicans have an opportunity to rebuild before 2028.

Republicans Got Wiped Out. Now What?

Dallas Jenkins, creator of the global hit series The Chosen, joins John Bickley and Georgia Howe to discuss the show's unprecedented success, his journey from career failure to becoming a pioneer in independent Christian entertainment, and the challenges of bringing the story of Jesus to the big screen.

He also previews Season Six, which follows the final 24 hours of Jesus' life and culminates in a feature-length theatrical release depicting the crucifixion. Get the facts first with Morning Wire.
