The Dr. Phil Podcast

Dr. Phil’s one-on-one with incoming “Borde Czar” Tom Homan. Dr. Phil has an in-depth conversation with President-Elect Trump’s incoming “border czar,” Tom Homan. Tom is about as tough as they come. With decades of experience, he’s been tapped to oversee all U.S. borders – including air and sea security – and lead the charge on deporting undocumented immigrants. It’s a cornerstone of Trump’s immigration plan. But Homan is no stranger to controversy. You probably remember his role in the “zero tolerance” policy. He’s not afraid of a fight, and he doesn’t back down when it comes to his beliefs. Tom tells Dr. Phil about his plans on day 1, how he will implement these mass deportations, and why he’s so passionate about keeping our country safe from the cartel, drugs and human trafficking.

Now, they’re trying to rebuild for the second time.  Plus, Dr. Phil talks to Macie and Caleb, who couldn’t afford flood insurance due to rising costs. When Hurricane Helene hit, they watched helplessly as floodwaters destroyed their forever home.

Los Angeles County District Attorney and Sheriff talk to Dr. Phil about charges against looters and arsonists Los Angeles County District Attorney Nathan Hochman talks to Dr. Phil about charging 10 individuals in four crimes committed during the devastating wildfires. Nine people are facing felony charges in connection to residential burglaries in the cities of Pacific Palisades and Altadena, and a separate defendant has been charged with arson for intentionally starting a fire in the city of Azusa. “These crimes are appalling and represent a direct attack on our community during a time of unprecedented loss and vulnerability,” District Attorney Hochman said. “Let me be clear: If you exploit this tragedy to prey on victims of these deadly fires, we will find you and we will prosecute you to the fullest extent of the law.”  The felony charges were the result of a multi-agency collaboration that underscores the strength of local, state, and federal partnerships. Law enforcement agencies, including the Los Angeles County Sheriff’s Department; Los Angeles Police Department; Los Angeles County Fire Arson Unit; U.S. Attorney’s Office; Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI); and Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives (ATF) collaborated closely with the District Attorney’s Office to bring these suspects to justice. And Sheriff Robert Luna talks to Dr. Phil about his request for additional National Guard members to help his team. Looting and theft remain a top concern for the sheriff's department as well as online scams. Plus a man who says thanks to strangers his home in Altadena was saved.
