In this episode, we delve into the concept of being "qualified" in the workplace, examining who gets labeled as such, who doesn't, and the underlying reasons. We explore "competency checking"—the practice of scrutinizing individuals' abilities—and how it disproportionately affects underrepresented groups, often going unnoticed or unchallenged. Our discussion aims to redefine qualifications in a fair, equitable, and actionable manner. Our guest, Shari Dunn , is an accomplished journalist, former attorney, news anchor, CEO, university professor, and sought-after speaker. She has been recognized as Executive of the Year and a Woman of Influence, with her work appearing in Fortune Magazine, The Wall Street Journal, Ad Age, and more. Her new book, Qualified: How Competency Checking and Race Collide at Work , unpacks what it truly means to be deserving and capable—and why systemic barriers, not personal deficits, are often the real problem. Her insights challenge the narratives that hold so many of us back and offer practical solutions for building a more equitable future. Together, we can build workplaces and communities that don’t just reflect the world we live in, but the one we want to create. A world where being qualified is about recognizing the talent and potential that’s been overlooked for far too long. It’s not just about getting a seat at the table—it’s about building an entirely new table, one designed with space for all of us.

1:57:52

Activist and writer Nick Bryant is Greg Kelly's guest today. Bryant published Jeffrey Epstein's notorious "Black book" in 2015 and has dedicated much of his career to investigating human trafficking. In his latest effort, Bryant focuses his investigative journalism lens on the Watergate scandal. "You can't read other books on Watergate, you have to study them," Bryant tells Kelly. He endeavored to change that with his book, which distills the events down into a consumable and understandable narrative. Kelly calls it the "most readable" version of events ever published. That book, The Truth About Watergate: A Tale of Extraordinary Lies & Liars, is out now. This feature-length conversation covers everything from Bryant's investigation into Jeffrey Epstein to the truth about All The President's Men authors Woodward and Bernstein. The latter was uncovered during Bryant's 18 years of research for his 2024 book. Plus, Kelly gets his guest to define human trafficking, and discuss other instances of it in American politics, including the little-discussed case of former House Speaker Dennis Hastert.…

Noted attorney Harvey Silverglate joins Greg Kelly in a winding and fascinating conversation. Silverglate is representing John Eastman, the man accused of providing President Trump with illegal advice regarding challenging the outcome of the 2020 election in Georgia. But this conversation also touches on Silverglate's career and notable clients such as convicted murderer Jeffrey MacDonald, his own personal and legal philosophy, and why robust debate is a lost artform in modern-day polarized America. That two men like Kelly and the classically liberal Silverglate can sit down and have a nuanced conversation about freedom and civil liberty is a very rare thing, and something the pair also discuss. The conversation ends with a discussion of Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion, the blanket label for a gambit of social reforms hitting college campuses across the country. Silverglate says these so-called DEI initiatives are turning off scholars on both the left and the right for their hampering of academic freedom.…

After a viral appearance on Greg Kelly's Newsmax program, Bill Stevenson returns for part two of his long-form interview on The Greg Kelly Podcast. In this edition, Stevenson details major allegations of retaliatory behavior on the part of the now-President and then-Senator. After Stevenson emerged victorious in the divorce proceedings, retaining their home and rewarded with tens of thousands of dollars from Mrs. Biden, he alleges that Joe Biden went out of his way to make his life miserable. Stevenson alleges that the Bidens remained bitter over not receiving the house or palimony and abused their power and connections in Delaware to retaliate. Stevenson says that President Biden's behavior in his administration is just "the rerun" of what he went through for years post-divorce and continued to experience until 2012.

Today, Greg Kelly speaks with Attorney John Ray. Ray is representing the families of the victims of the Gilgo Beach killings. Ray opens up to Kelly about the years-long investigation, including why it took so long to capture alleged serial killer Rex Heuermann. A complex investigation with forensics, GPS mapping, and high-level profiling yielded what police consider the only possible outcome: they have the man who terrorized a stretch of New York over a decade ago. But do the families believe one person is solely responsible for the killings? John Ray dives into this and much more. Our sponsor is De Espresso Liber.
