Robert Davi appeared on the November 22nd show to talk about his new film “The Dukes” which he directed and starred in.  The film has won many awards and some really incredible actors in it.  It is one of the ‘feel good’ films of this year.  We were very proud to have Mr. Davi on the show.

This is Mr. Davi’s bio:

From his portrayal of James Bond villain Franz Sanchez to FBI profiler Bailey Malone in “Profiler” (1996), Robert Davi is one of the film industry’s most recognized tough guys, whether on the big screen or on television. His tough exterior masks a powerful inner sensitivity, which he calls upon for his most notorious roles. A stickler for research, Davi contacted Quantico and arranged to meet Bill Hagenmeyer, the real-life FBI profiler. Davi received critical acclaim within the industry for his provocative and smoldering portrayal of Bailey Malone. The show, currently in syndication, struck a chord with audiences, paving the way for such shows as “CSI: Crime Scene Investigation” (2000), “Without a Trace” (2002), “Law & Order: Criminal Intent” (2001) and many others.

His work as a Palestinian terrorist Salim Ajami in an award-winning TV movie brought him critical acclaim and caught the eye of legendary James Bond producer Albert R. Broccoli, who cast Davi as Colombian drug lord and lead villain Franz Sanchez in the Bond film Licence to Kill (1989). Davi studied with the legendary Stella Adler, who became his mentor, and he was also a member of the Actors Studio, where he studied with Lee Strasberg. His big break came when he was cast opposite Frank Sinatra in the telefilm Contract on Cherry Street (1977) (TV), and he has gone on to work in projects with Marlon Brando, Roberto Benigni, Arnold Schwarzenegger, Bruce Willis, Clint Eastwood, Benicio Del Toro, Danny Glover and Adam Sandler, to name a few.

Among his many notable film credits are Die Hard (1988), The Goonies (1985), Son of the Pink Panther (1993), Licence to Kill (1989), Raw Deal (1986) and Showgirls (1995). He has worked with such directors as Steven Spielberg, Richard Donner, Blake Edwards, John McTiernan and Paul Verhoeven, among others. He is equally adept at comedy, also, as is evident by his work in a Rodney Dangerfield romantic comedy, as a con artist (once again a very funny and believable character), and he can be seen in the Rob Schneider/Adam Sandler comedy The Hot Chick (2002). He recently produced and is starring in Hitters (2002), a film that takes a realistic look at the struggles that occur within a neighborhood mob crew.

Besides working and raising his five children, Davi stays busy volunteering his time in such charities such as The Dream Foundation, Exceptional Children’s Foundation, Heart Of A Child Foundation, The National Italian-American Foundation, Unico, and he is the national spokesperson for I Save America.

Rep. Boustany appeared on the Marine Corps Birthday show on November 8th, 2008.  We talked with the Congressman about legislation that he co-authored called the Military Fallen Heroes Protection Act of 2006, or H.R. 5772 in the 109th Congress.  The legislation passed the Senate, but died in committee in the House.

We asked if the legislation would be revived in this upcoming Congress because several Gold Star families have been battling anti-war displays that have been using the fallen soldiers names for anti-war propaganda.

Mrs. Hector lost her son, 2nd Lt. Ryan LeDuc, on September 24, 2004 in Iraq. Nola talked about her fight to remove her son’s name from several anti-war propaganda displays. She talked about how she feels to know that her son’s memory is being used in that way and how she is doing since she lost her son. The Commandant of the Marine Corps asked in his Birthday message that we remember the families that have paid the ultimate price for freedom. We were very honored to have Nola Hector on the Marine Corps Birthday show.

Evan Sayet is the best conservative comedian and political commentator working in America today.  His speech at the Heritage Foundation has been called “one of the top five most important conservative speeches ever given” by Andrew Breitbart.

Jennifer Hughes is a former Marine that received an unsolicited cell phone call from an Obama campaign volunteer. Jennifer expressed to the volunteer that she would not be voting for Obama because of his stance on providing medical attention to infants born alive after a botched abortion. Four times, Jennifer told the volunteer, Barak Obama has voted in the Illinios State Senate to deny medical attention to infants. For this reason alone, Jennifer Hughes, could not in good conscience vote for Barak Obama.

23 hours later, Jennifer received a visit by the Secret Service. They claimed that some in the Obama campaign had made a report that she had threatened the life of Barak Obama. She explained to the officers exactly what she had said.

Jennifer appeared on the October 11th, 2008 show talk about her incident with the Secret Service.

Nick is a former Gunnery Sergeant who was wounded in April of 2004 during the first assault on Fallujah.  Nick wrote a book about his injuries and his courageous recovery.  “Once a Marine” chronicles the amazing fight of a man that prided himself a fighter and how he was truly tested beyond anything that he had ever imagined.  It is a story of true heroism.  You can read more about Gunny Popaditch at his website here.  Semper Fi!

Sgt. Klay “Dirty South” led his fire team on a house clearing operation. Klay was shot in the face and took numerous hits from a high velocity AK47 assault weapon. One bullet penetrated the right side of his face, taking out 18 teeth and shattering portions of his upper and lower jaw. The inside of his mouth was destroyed, and he wasn’t expected to survive. He also suffered foot injuries, but those seemed minor at the time. Out of this tragedy Klay decided to devote his life to making life better for wounded veterans by establishing Veterans of Valor.

Veterans of Valor was launched from the heart and experience of Cpl. Klay South after he was critically wounded November 11, 2004, during a spearhead into Fallujah, Iraq. While experiencing a lengthy recovery process of multiple surgeries, treatments, and therapies, Klay discovered that a minute could seem like an hour. Anticipating painful treatments and therapies only added to the anxiety of the whole new world of emotional turmoil, but he discovered that personal therapy through music, audio books, and PlayStation Portable® devices (PSPs) made the treatments and therapies less stressful.

You can support Klay in his efforts to comfort the wounded by donating to or sponsoring a hero for Operation 24/7.
