  Aug 16, 202656 min

  Join the Conversation at 303-477-5600 or text to 307-200-8222 Monday-Friday, 3 pm-6 pm MT. https://RushToReason.com HOUR 1 Three New Movies. Which Ones Are Worth Watching? The latest Rush To Reason kicks off with John Rush and Andy Peth diving headfirst into the fiery drama inside the Colorado Republican Party. Should party officers get a free pass to campaign against their own nominees during "personal time"? With sharp comparisons to professional sports, business, and media, John and Andy tackle whether internal feuds are torching party loyalty—and whether common sense still stands a chance. Next up: Andy Peth’s high-energy 5-Star Movie Reviews, featuring three wildly different films. Travel to the edge of nuclear war as Ronald Reagan and Mikhail Gorbachev face off in The Brink of War. Get swept into dinosaur mayhem when an ordinary neighborhood is overrun in The End of Oak Street. And for a fun, family-friendly twist, Paw Patrol: The Dino Movie brings prehistoric adventure to the big screen. Andy dishes out which movies deserve your ticket—and which are best skipped. To wrap up Hour 1, John and Andy trade witty banter about fine art versus cars as art, debate the draw of art galleries versus Broadway, and dig into what makes movies so uniquely captivating compared to live theater. The hour ends with a musical tease: one-hit wonders, and the mystery of why some artists capture lightning in a bottle just once.

Along the way, John and Andy debate what truly makes a one-hit wonder, share legendary music videos, swap hilarious memories, and spark a cascade of sing-along moments. Dive in and discover why some songs never leave your head—even when the artist’s name does.
