Akicita - The Warrior

Feature Film

Many people point to Americas treatment of its Native American population as one of the darkest chapters in her storied history. Despite this violent period, the human spirit rises, even on dark and remote Indian reservations. The upcoming feature film, Akicita – The Warrior, is based on events from Lakota Sioux Native American Thomas Ross Brewer’s celebrated life of service and sacrifice. From his difficult young life on and near the notorious Pine Ridge Indian reservation, to the battlefields of Afghanistan, the film details Tom’s career as a highly decorated soldier in the U.S. Army, his service as a Senator in the Nebraska legislature, and his epic fight to preserve the culture and dignity of the American Indian Sioux Nation.

A deeply uplifting story, the ground-breaking movie reveals an incredible unknown story about an inspiring figure who has overcome enormous obstacles to serve his fellow Americans on battlefields abroad – and Native American people at home in the United States.

It may or may not be true that Jeff’s talk radio career is an example of God’s gift to people with attention deficit disorder – no kidding. What should have been a curse for Jeff back in the day before anyone really understood ADD, instead became an enormous blessing for both him and audiences across America. It turns out that leaping rapidly from one subject to another, incredible memory and recall, and a singular ability to synthesize complex issues and subjects makes for the ideal talk show host. Jeff began his career in market #70 at 1110-KFAB in Omaha, Nebraska, moved to market #30 at 1200-WOAI in San Antonio, Texas, and broke into the prestigious “Top 10” back home in Dallas, Texas in market #5 at 570-KLIF. He’s been featured on The Rush Limbaugh Program, The Sean Hannity Show, and guest hosted for Michael Savage. He also appears frequently on national television outlets CNN, FOX, and MSNBC discussing political and military issues of the day.

With his busy, successful, career producing film and television he doesn’t do a daily show these days, but he remains in demand across America in large talk radio markets as a go to fill-in host. In particular, he’s been a beloved presence across the weekday schedule in Philadelphia on 1210-WPHT-AM since 2014. While the decidedly eastern Philly audience knows he isn’t from there, they love him anyway, and the feeling is mutual. Over the past several years he’s also been heard in Las Vegas, San Francisco, Kansas City, and Dallas.

“We also have polar bears walking right by our training site, so we have a bear guard always watching.”
