  • Podpinions Episode 26 — Mount Airy Trump Rally Re-Cap (with Jamie Frenette)
    Dec 22 2025

    Fresh off a Trump rally at Mount Airy Casino in the Poconos, Rich and Bruce sit down with special guest Jamie Frenette, a Mount Airy Casino employee who had one of the most unique perspectives in the room—standing directly behind President Trump during the speech.

    This episode is a loose, unscripted recap of the day: the cold lines, the security presence, the crowd energy, and the behind-the-scenes chaos of a hush-hush rally that wasn’t announced until days before. Jamie shares what it was like being cleared by the Secret Service, ending up on national television, and standing for hours just feet from the podium.

    From casino operations and gas prices, to Pennsylvania road taxes, tips vs. wages, and the reality of rally logistics, the conversation drifts naturally—as it always does on Podpinions—into politics, policy, and everyday frustrations.

    It’s not a formal breakdown. It’s three guys, fresh off the event, bull-crapping about what they saw, what worked, what didn’t, and why experiences like this matter heading into an election year.
