Paul Berry III (2026)

Thursday, October 29, 2026 • Duration 45:08

On the latest episode of Politically Speaking, Republican 1st District nominee Paul Berry III joins STLPR’s Jason Rosenbaum to talk about his campaign for the St. Louis and St. Louis County-based district. Berry is running against Democratic Congressman Wesley Bell on Tuesday. He’s the underdog in the race, since the 1st District is the most Democratic congressional seat in the state. But he said that there’s value for the GOP to try and make inroads throughout the St. Louis region. “There's no training wheels,” Berry said. “We don't have 246 years for somebody to figure it out.”

Ann Wagner (2026)

Monday, October 26, 2026 • Duration 45:30

Missouri Congresswoman Ann Wagner says that President Trump made the right decision to attack Iran, contending that the GOP president needed to prevent that country from procuring a nuclear weapon. And while the Ballwin Republican said on an episode of “Politically Speaking” that she wanted the conflict to end as soon as possible, she defended her ‘no’ votes on War Powers resolutions that sought to curtail Trump’s ability to use military force in Iran. “The president has his Article Two authorities to conduct what he is doing right now with Iran,” Wagner said. “He doesn't need Congress's permission or or non permission. Those are just political throwaway votes that the Democrats try to toss out there on a monthly basis. I'm going to give the president his prerogative in continuing this, to the extent that it takes to make sure that they're not nuclearized, to make sure that they're not attacking American citizens, to make sure that when they chant ‘Death to America,’ that it doesn't have any teeth behind it. “I believe that this will come to a quick end,” she added. Wagner is squaring off against Democrat Fred Wellman to represent Missouri’s 2nd Congressional District, which takes in portions of St. Louis County, St. Charles County and Warren County and all of Franklin County.

Quentin Wilson

Thursday, October 22, 2026 • Duration 38:57

Missouri auditor candidate Quentin Wilson said that having a Democrat running the office would make the GOP-controlled state government more accountable. “I think it's really important in a democracy for an independent review of everything the state government does, and that's what an auditor can be,” Wilson said on the “Politically Speaking” podcast.. “A single party cannot police itself.” Wilson is running against Republican incumbent Scott Fitzpatrick, who is seeking a second four-year term. Fitzpatrick has been invited to record an episode of “Politically Speaking.”
