5 DEC 2025 · Today on The Game, we break down four major political flashpoints shaping the national conversation.
We begin in Minnesota, where Governor Tim Walz faces mounting federal scrutiny across multiple agencies — raising questions about transparency, oversight, and political fallout. Then we turn to the Trump administration’s sudden immigration freeze on 19 countries and what it signals for global security and domestic policy.
Next, we examine Donald Trump’s escalating rhetoric toward Venezuela, including his declaration that “this is war,” and what this means for U.S. foreign policy and Latin American stability. Finally, we head to Tennessee, where a closely watched special election is giving early clues about how affordability and economic frustration will shape the 2026 midterms.
It’s a packed episode — investigations, immigration, foreign tensions, and electoral signals — and we’re breaking it all down with clarity and context. Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-game-with-wadi-gaitan--6703155/support.

3 DEC 2025 · Former Pennsylvania Congressman Charlie Dent joins the conversation to unpack the GOP’s challenges and opportunities heading into 2026.

The episode also explores how Donald Trump’s trade policies are testing party unity, creating both risks and openings for GOP leadership. Listeners will gain a nuanced look at the intersection of state-level dynamics, national ambitions, and the economic debates shaping the party’s future.

27 NOV 2025 · This special Thanksgiving episode steps away from politics and leans into something deeper: gratitude, unity, and hope in a difficult world. Our special guest joins us for a conversation on how to practice thanksgiving when life feels heavy — from economic stress to global up conflict to personal struggles.
We explore why gratitude is a choice, not a feeling; how families can create peace at the table; and what Scripture teaches about contentment, reconciliation, and serving others. It’s an honest, grounded look at finding hope and gratitude not by ignoring reality, but by anchoring ourselves in faith, community, and purpose.
This is an episode for anyone who wants to carry a grateful heart into Thanksgiving — even in challenging times. Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-game-with-wadi-gaitan--6703155/support.
