| 6/25/26 | ![]() The Fire Outside My Window: Utah’s Cottonwood Inferno | The Cottonwood Fire has exploded into one of Utah's most significant wildfires of the year, consuming tens of thousands of acres, forcing evacuations, destroying structures, threatening communities, and transforming the landscape of central and southern Utah. For Tom, this story isn't happening hundreds of miles away on a television screen—it's unfolding uncomfortably close to home and to The Tom Gulley Show studio. In this episode, Tom examines the rapid growth of the Cottonwood Fire, the evacuation orders affecting residents and visitors, the impact on Eagle Point Resort, the dangerous fire conditions gripping Utah, and what life is like when a major wildfire moves from being a news story to becoming part of your daily reality. As smoke fills the sky and firefighters battle extreme conditions, Tom offers his perspective on the fire, the response, the uncertainty facing nearby communities, and the growing concerns about Utah's wildfire season. The Cottonwood Fire began near Beaver, Utah, and expanded at an alarming rate amid drought conditions, high temperatures, low humidity, and strong winds. What started as a local emergency quickly became a major statewide story, affecting residents, travelers, businesses, recreation areas, and some of Utah's most scenic mountain terrain. Join Tom for a timely discussion of a disaster that is still unfolding and a firsthand look at how a wildfire can change an entire region in a matter of hours. #CottonwoodFire #UtahWildfire #UtahFires #BeaverUtah #EaglePointResort #Wildfire #UtahNews #FireSeason #TheTomGulleyShow #CurrentEvents #BreakingNews #FishlakeNationalForest #Utah thetomgulleyshow.com | 1h 26m 34s | ||||||
| 6/24/26 | ![]() Why “Take Me Home, Country Roads” as the USMNT Anthem Is a Monumentally Stupid Idea | John Denver’s “Take Me Home, Country Roads” is a HILLBILLY song. But making it the unofficial anthem of the United States Men’s National Team? Tom thinks that’s one of the dumbest ideas in the history of EVER. On this episode of The Tom Gulley Show, Tom unleashes a blistering rant on the bizarre obsession with forcing a song about West Virginia onto a national team that represents fifty states and millions of fans. Why did this happen? Who thought this was a good idea? And why are so many people pretending it somehow represents American soccer culture? Tom dives into the history of soccer songs around the world, the manufactured nature of “Country Roads” in U.S. soccer circles, and why borrowing traditions instead of creating authentic ones misses the entire point. He also looks at the disconnect between soccer culture in America and the people trying to define it, while offering his own thoughts on what a true American soccer identity should sound like. If you love the USMNT, follow international soccer, or are tired of groupthink masquerading as tradition, this episode is guaranteed to spark a reaction. The Tom Gulley Show streams Monday through Thursday and features long-form conversations, commentary, history, pop culture, sports, and the occasional righteous rant. #USMNT #USSoccer #AmericanSoccer #SoccerCulture #CountryRoads #JohnDenver #FIFAWorldCup #WorldCup2026 #TomGulleyShow #SoccerFans thetomgulleyshow.com | 1h 33m 08s | ||||||

| 6/21/26 | ![]() The Name Of The Game: Three Times Cooler Than Other TV Shows | Before anthology series became fashionable, The Name Of The Game was already blazing its own trail. Airing from 1968 to 1971, this ambitious NBC drama rotated between three leading men—Gene Barry, Tony Franciosa, and Robert Stack—each starring in his own recurring stories under the umbrella of a powerful publishing empire. It was television unlike anything audiences had seen before. On this episode of The Tom Gulley Show, Tom looks back at one of the most expensive and innovative series of its era, examining how The Name Of The Game blended mystery, journalism, action, and social commentary while attracting some of Hollywood’s biggest guest stars and directors. From Steven Spielberg’s early work behind the camera to the unique rotating format that influenced later television, this forgotten classic deserves another look. Why did NBC take such a gamble? Why did the series disappear from popular memory despite critical acclaim? And why do television historians still consider it one of the most fascinating experiments of the late 1960s? Join Tom for a deep dive into one of TV's most ambitious dramas and discover why The Name Of The Game remains a remarkable piece of television history. #TheNameOfTheGame #ClassicTV #GeneBarry #TonyFranciosa #RobertStack #NBC #TelevisionHistory #ClassicTelevision #StevenSpielberg #TomGulleyShow thetomgulleyshow.com | 1h 08m 10s | ||||||
| 6/18/26 | ![]() Burt Reynolds: The Mustache, the Mayhem, and the Last Great Movie Star | Burt Reynolds wasn't supposed to become a Hollywood legend. Injuries ended his football dreams, critics dismissed him, and studios never quite knew what to do with him. Yet somehow, with charisma, confidence, and a grin that could fill a movie screen, Burt Reynolds became one of the biggest stars on the planet. On this episode of The Tom Gulley Show, Tom takes a deep dive into the remarkable life and career of Burt Reynolds, from his early television appearances and breakthrough roles to the blockbuster success of Smokey and the Bandit, Deliverance, The Longest Yard, Cannonball Run, and Boogie Nights. Why was Burt Reynolds the box office king of the late 1970s? How did he become one of the most recognizable celebrities in America? What career decisions did he later regret? And how did a man who seemed larger than life navigate the triumphs, setbacks, financial struggles, and personal challenges that followed? Join Tom for a fascinating look at the actor who defined cool for an entire generation, helped shape modern Hollywood stardom, and remained one of the most beloved personalities in entertainment history. The Tom Gulley Show explores the people, events, mysteries, and cultural touchstones that continue to fascinate us.

| 6/18/26 | ![]() Pringles: The Potato Chip That Isn’t A Potato Chip | Pringles aren't just another potato chip. They're one of the most recognizable snack foods ever created, sold in more than 140 countries and instantly identified by a cardboard can, a stackable shape, and a mustachioed mascot. In this episode of The Tom Gulley Show, Tom takes a deep dive into the surprising history of Pringles, from their invention in the 1960s to their rise as one of the world's best-known snack brands. Discover why Pringles aren't technically traditional potato chips, how food scientists engineered their unique shape, the story behind the iconic Pringles can, and the marketing decisions that transformed a simple snack into a global phenomenon. Tom explores the product development, advertising, manufacturing, packaging innovation, branding, flavor expansion, and business history that helped Pringles compete against giants in the snack food industry. From supermarket shelves to pop culture fame, the story of Pringles is a fascinating look at how science, marketing, and consumer habits combined to create one of America's most successful snack products.

| 6/17/26 | ![]() Shut Up, England: Why The English Still Can’t Talk to America About Soccer | For decades, English fans and pundits have treated American soccer like a punchline. Tom Gulley has had enough. In this episode of The Tom Gulley Show, Tom unloads on the myths, arrogance, and misinformation surrounding American soccer. From England’s surprising inability to beat the United States in FIFA World Cup competition to the endless parade of pundits who confidently discuss a game they barely understand, Tom offers a passionate, opinionated, and often hilarious defense of the American soccer tradition. Having followed, played, coached, studied, and analyzed the sport for more than fifty years, Tom brings a perspective that cuts through the clichés. He takes aim at bad takes from both sides of the Atlantic, challenges conventional wisdom, and explains why soccer expertise is far rarer than most television analysts would have you believe.

| 5/28/26 | ![]() Watergate: The Scandal That Brought Down a President | Watergate remains one of the most explosive political scandals in United States history—one that brought down a president and permanently altered public trust in government. On this episode of The Tom Gulley Show, we break down how a seemingly minor break-in at the Democratic National Committee headquarters spiraled into a full-scale constitutional crisis. What began as political espionage quickly unraveled into a web of cover-ups, secret recordings, and escalating investigations that reached the Oval Office itself. As journalists uncovered the truth and congressional hearings intensified, the Nixon administration faced mounting pressure that would ultimately lead to President Richard Nixon’s resignation—the first and only resignation of a U.S. president. This is the inside story of power, secrecy, media influence, and the moment American politics changed forever. #Watergate #RichardNixon #USHistory #PoliticalScandal #AmericanPolitics #TheTomGulleyShow #HistoryPodcast #NixonResignation #WhiteHouse #InvestigativeJournalism #WashingtonPost #ColdWarPolitics #PoliticalHistory #GovernmentScandal #TrueHistory #PresidentialHistory thetomgulleyshow.com | 2h 43m 34s | ||||||
