Author Richie McGinniss of 'RIOT DIET: One Man’s Radical Ride Through America in Chaos'

THINK BIG with Michael Zellner

Richie’s journey into the national and international spotlight began on August 25, 2020, when as a Chief Video Director for The Daily Caller, a conservative website that was founded by Tucker Carlson, he found himself in the middle of craziness and chaos that night in Kenosha, Wisconsin. Just minutes before the shooting began that night, he was interviewing Kyle Rittenhouse in front of a gas station. A little while after that, Richie’s life changed forever and he is here today to tell us about his experience that night and also his involvement in the riots after the death of George Floyd, with the Proud Boys in Seattle’s Capitol Hill Autonomous Zone, a face-off between the umbrella gang and the NYPD in New York City’s protest in front of City Hall, and also in Portland when there was a clash between demonstrators and federal officers. A lot of what he will be talking to our audience today is also talked about in his new book coming out this month called RIOT DIET: One Man’s Radical Ride Through America in Chaos. Great to have you on today, Richie. Sponsored by Sleepy ZZZ's Masonry
