1015. Andy, Chad Bianco & DJ CTI: Communists At No Kings Rally, Ground Operations In Iran & Tiger Woods DUI

Episode of REAL AF with Andy Frisella · March 31, 2026 · 2 h 21 min

Riverside County Sheriff and California governor candidate Chad Bianco joins Andy Frisella and DJ to discuss No Kings protests, Iran ground operations and Tiger Woods' DUI.

Summary

Andy Frisella and DJ hosted Riverside County Sheriff Chad Bianco, a candidate for governor of California, for a Cruise the Internet episode. Bianco described his 33-year law enforcement career, his decision to run for governor on the reasoning that "if I don't do it, somebody else is going to," and his view that California's problems stem from taxes, regulation and career politicians rather than from the state itself. Frisella thanked Bianco for refusing to enforce COVID-19 restrictions in Riverside County, which he said gave other law enforcement officials cover to do the same.

The first headline covered communist and socialist activists at No Kings rallies calling for a May Day strike, plus a clip of a Canadian progressive party conference using "gender equity cards" to reorder speakers. Frisella argued the protesters were "useful idiots" who did not understand communism; Bianco said the ideology had been introduced through the education and medical systems over a century. Bianco also offered what he called a glimmer of hope, saying his agency's hires under 25 are markedly more conservative, which he attributed to COVID-era disruption of their schooling. The pair discussed the exodus from Los Angeles into Riverside and San Bernardino counties, political party labels on ballots, government corruption, the California Air Resources Board, and Bianco's plan to cut regulation and prosecute homeless-services fraud.

On Iran, DJ reported that the Pentagon was preparing weeks-long ground operations with a Marine Expeditionary Unit aboard the USS Tripoli in theater, and that Israel had declined to join. Frisella said a behind-the-scenes fight between Trump and Netanyahu was underway and argued that the public only knows a fraction of what decision-makers know. Both said money should be spent domestically first. Bianco also addressed accusations that he supports amnesty, calling them a lie, and explained how California's 2017 sanctuary state law forced ICE onto the streets, which he said Democrats knowingly engineered for political optics.

The final segments covered Tiger Woods' DUI charge after a rollover crash in Jupiter Island, Florida, with both hosts and Bianco arguing that drunk and drugged driving deserves severe, certain consequences. Bianco described instituting a one-month unpaid suspension for deputies who get DUIs, which he said eliminated the problem. The episode closed with discussion of opioid addiction, high-THC marijuana, carnivore diets and testosterone, and a "Thumbs Up or Dumb as Fuck" segment about 12 tons of Kit Kat bars stolen in Europe.
