The Scott Adams School - 09/03/26 Steve Cortes returns! The Basilica Or the Mosque...Documentary

# The Scott Adams School | September 3, 2026

☕ **Good morning and welcome to The Scott Adams School!**

Today we’re very happy to welcome back **Steve Cortes**, who joins us to discuss his latest documentary, ***The Basilica or the Mosque***.

These are important times to have serious conversations about what is happening around us, what we are seeing in our communities and where things may be headed. We’re looking forward to hearing what Steve discovered while making the documentary, what he believes Americans need to understand, and where the conversation takes us from there.

We’ll also cover a few other news stories making headlines today because apparently the world remains stubbornly unwilling to give us a slow news day.

☕ Grab your coffee and get ready for the **Simultaneous Sip**.
