Five minutes after the hour, The Morning Show with Preston Scott. Good to be with you this morning. It's Thursday, October seventeenth, the great program lined up as we always do, every show is ratings sweep around here. We don't pay attention to, oh, you're in the book, which is the ratings time for us.
We every we treat every show like it's ratings time because it is the old Joe DiMaggio line on why he plays hard for every single place, and because there's there's a young kid out there that's never seen me play, and I'm gonna leave a lasting impression. I'm gonna hustle on every play. It's like the old adage you only get one chance to make a first impression. For some of you listening to the program, this could be the very first time you've listened. I'm not mailing it in.
No, no, no.
Every show is prepared to be the best show it can be. And so we are here with you, ready to go as always, and we start with some scripture Psalm twenty five, Verses fourteen and fifteen. The friendship of the Lord is for those who fear him, and he makes known to them his covenant my eyes are ever toward the Lord, for he will pluck my feet out of the net. Okay, let's unpack this for just a quick second, because I have an announcement that kind of relates to this in a way. Friendship of the Lord
is for those who fear him. Now, in the Old Testament, there are times the word fear really means awareness. There are other times it means respect and acknowledgement of place, with a little trembling mixed in. That's what this means, a respect for who God is and that, oh, by the way, you're not God. Okay, still one of the greatest lines in the history of movies. There is a God, and I'm not him anyway. And then my eyes are ever toward the Lord, for he will pluck my feet
out of the net. You've got Have you ever pulled a fish out of a gill net? That's kind of what we're talking about. Your feet just kind of poked through and they just kind of they tangle in there. He'll take care of that. Bible says that the path of someone who is righteous in Christ is ergo illuminated. The path of the righteous is ordered by God. It's illuminated. You just yeah, there you go. Doesn't mean you're going
to have perfect wisdom and discernment. It means that you have the access to it, to that wisdom and discernment. So there we go. That's where we start. Today. There is a day of prayer called well, a time of prayer at the state Capitol in advance of the election on November two. It's a Saturday from ten am till noon on the steps of the Old Capital. So if
you are interested in going there, you go. The idea is to pray for the nation, to pray that people will use wisdom and discernment, as we just mentioned in their selections, that Christians will vote. If Christians vote and use wisdom, you're not just voting, duh. If you're not going to vote, you again, you should be ashamed of yourself. You have no excuse, you know, you just don't. It will it will fall on blind eyes if you send
me an email trying to explain yourself. Maybe, maybe, maybe I'll do a phone segment at some point, open up the phone lines to those that claim to be a Christian. You claim to be a Christian and you're not gonna vote, and I'm gonna I'm gonna give you a chance to explain your reason, and then I'm going to lecture you.
Gee, doesn't that sound like fun?
All right?
Ten minutes after the hour, maybe I won't take a peek inside the American Patriots. All of that, We got a bunch of PSAs, some events coming up I'm gonna tell you about. And then an announcement about today's show. Very important announcement about today's show coming up next here on the Morning Show with Preston Scott.
This is the Morning Show with Preston Scott.
Whether you're listening on a transistor radio or you know, just a radio sitting on your console, or maybe in your car, or maybe you're listening on one of those new phones. They're not dumb, they're smart. They're phones. Thank you for listening to the program with mister Preston.
Thank you. October seventeenth, seventeen seventy seven, British forces surrendered to Patriot true groups at Saratoga, an American victory that helps win France as an ally for the rest of the war. France was waiting to see Zee Britesh called them rebel gen that fight, eh, how ironic The French were waiting to see if we'd surrender and give up, that would be like what the French would become known for White flag surrender. Anyway, nineteen sixteen. This is fascinating.
A lot of people don't know this. The USS Arizona was commissioned at a New York Naval shipyard on this date in nineteen sixteen. It was a World War One battleship, and in fact it was a gunnery training boat, but was used during the war to patrol the eastern seaboard of the United States. During the war, it was an escort ship. When what was it, President Woodrow Wilson was on the way to the Paris Peace Conference. It was there,
just looking around making sure. But of course the Arizona gained fame infamously by being destroyed and sunk during Pearl Harbor, killing a lot of men that were trapped on board. And the ship is right there where it sank. The monument is right above it. It's a somber reminder. Nineteen thirty three, physicist Albert Einstein, fleeing Nazi Germany, arrives in the United States. Nineteen seventy three, OPEC announces it will cut oil exports to the United States and other nations
supporting Israel during the Yam Kapor War. We need a longer memory. We forget when it's all said and done, who's friends with who? And that, in and of itself is why our policies should be different when it comes to energy. And in nineteen eighty nine, an earthquake measuring seven to one on the Richter scale hits in northern California, killing more than sixty And that was a big, big one. If I'm not mistaken, that was during Isn't that during a baseball game? Is that during the World Series or
one of the playoff series? I think I don't know anyway, So there you go, now announcement about the show. I already have people texting, friends, texting, emailing. Can't wait to hear what you say about the Kamala interview with Brett Baer. I'm not going to talk about it. I've decided, at least for today, this is a Kamala free Thursday. I can't do it. I just I'm sorry. If you think
less of me, I'll live. You'll miss a lot of great content today if you decide not to listen because you don't because you're what am I gonna say she's a buffoon. I've had people point out, you know, she wears the same ear rings all the time, all the time. Who does that? What woman wears the same ear rings with every outfit? And the contention is that they are hearing devices, that she's getting fed information. I don't know. Personally, I struggle with that idea because I don't think she can.
I think if someone were speaking to her, she would be like while she's trying to listen. I don't think she's capable of doing what some are able to do, taking content in an ear while they're forming a thought separately and speaking. I don't think she can do that. So I don't know that I believe that, but it might be true. I don't know. What I know is the interview was a train wreck. She said nothing. Redbar tried. I mean, look, he doesn't like Trump, but he tried.
The Kamala Harris team didn't allow the interview to proceed. They shut it down and she didn't answer anything because she's not capable. So what am I going to say? We know she's a dufist, we know she can't form a thought, we know she's not capable at all of being the commander in chief of this country. She's not capable at No, she's not capable. This isn't about her being Indian, This isn't about her being black, this isn't about her being white or whatever. This is about her
being incompetent. What else is there to say? So I just need a break. I don't want to talk about her today. So I'm not gonna there you go. That's it. That's all you're getting for the rest of the show. It's a Kamala free show. Would you like a little Camala on that ice cream? No caramel?
I don't like kama No.
Seventeen eighteen past the hour. Okay, got some great stuff to talk about next, all right, the big story is in the press box. So are already changing. Do not doubt me when I tell you this. The effort to try to steal the election is beginning now. I know that the plans have been underway since twenty twenty to ensure that they can do it again in twenty twenty four. But we're now seeing actions by the Department of Justice and certain judges in the federal court system that make
zero sense legally or otherwise. And so this is how the big stories are evolving and changing for the morning it's getting and you just we got to just keep the faith, keep pushing away. And this is why Christians vote. You let me catch you not voting. Slap you anyway. No, it's it's important. The margins have to be so sufficient for Trump that you can't cheat. It's like if someone is trying to throw a baseball game or football. Let's stay with football. Throw a football game. You gotta win
beyond the spread. You gotta win so big that it just it. Yeah, nope, takes removes all doubt. Anyway. Uh, some announcements of events and different things, and understand, I pick and choose, and I'm sorry if I don't choose your event to talk about. But I can't turn this into three hours of public service announcements because at that moment, this just sounds like the farm Report and we're gonna talk about the prices of hogs. I mean, it's just it's endless.
Well, you know, there's a flower sale going on, and then the kids at the local elementary school are selling wrapping paper.
I can't do it all, so I pick and choose number one. The golf tournament schedule for tomorrow in Thomasville Country Oaks has been canceled. The storm really screwed everything up. They had enough teams to run the event raise some funds fourteen challenge, but the fact of the matter is that when the event had to be moved because of the Hurricane Helene, not enough teams could sign back up to the new date, which is tomorrow, so they've had to cancel it. So I'm making inquiries on the team
challenge need and what's going on there Tomorrow. Honor Flight car Show not tomorrow Saturday, Sorry, Saturday, the Show and Shine open car show and silent auction from nine to noon, no preregistration. Twelve dollars per vehicle at the Moose Lodge on Capitol Circle Northwest. That's Capitol Circle north west by I ten and you get your head towards, you go past Lows and you go past Home Depot, and just pass Home Depot, you'll find the Moose Lodge. It's right
there and it benefits Honor Flight. The next Honor Flight is UH is coming up in April. So the car show fifteen bucks per vehicle next week. The Greek Food Festival, we'll talk more about it next week. Are you do. You go to that every year? No, I missed it every year, but this time you're going. I want to go. I want to go so bad. Here's what you want to do. You want to eat the baklava. You just you have to. If you're going to go there, you gotta eat the baklava. It's just it's next level baklava.
But it's the twenty fifth and twenty sixth at the Holy Mother of God, Greek Orthodox Church. I mean, come on the Holy Mother of God Greek Orthodox Church. There you go, and then coming up in November, sorry, December. Just getting it out there ahead of ahead of time, the points set he Is and Pearls Christmas Banquet. It's the annual fundraiser for Humble House Ministries. Humble House Held House helps women battling different forms of addiction and in
need and it's a really cool program. And that event will be at a manual Baptist church and we'll tell you more about that. So just some things to put on your calendar. Twenty eight minutes after the hour. I'm late. I'm late for a very important date. No time to say hello goodbye.
I'm late, I'm late and late WFLA.
I am all messed up because we've got some temps this morning in the low forties. That's exciting to me. I know it's not gonna last, but this, this, to me, is just beautiful, perfect weather. Temps in the seventies during the day, dry, not humid. Oh my goodness, gracious, I know it's not gonna last. We're gonna get a little bit back to warm. But again, usually Halloween, give or take a week, is your transition to false and then into winter weather. It's kind of a fall winter, a
full winter for us. But I'm all out of sorts because I when temperatures hit like this, I'm always into oatmeal. I go oatmeal. And the problem is, I normally make my oatmeal in the break at twenty minutes past the hour, the first hour of the show. But I got totally out of sorts because of things changing in the rundown today, and so I didn't make my oat meal until the break we just finished with. And so now I'm just sitting there staring at my oat meal. Geez man, I'm just smelling that maple.
Oh.
All right, here we go. Here's what's changed. We have yet another state that's showing signs of a potential steal and sadly, the two states I'm talking about are Georgia and Alabama. And I'm not blaming the citizens. I'm not blaming the government. I'm blaming the judges. I'm blaming the Department of Justice. Listen to what happened in Alabama. Now, will this get appealed and overturned? I can hope federal judges blocked Alabama. Listen removing not citizens from voter roles.
She cites the judge is Anamanco maniics Monasco. Sorry, there we go, Northern District of Alabama, quoting for decades, federal laws given states hard deadline to complete systematic purges of ineligible persons from voter rolls no later than ninety days before an election. Why what difference does it make? They're not allowed to vote. They're not citizens. This is a warning sign. The Department of Justice is going everywhere that anything like this is going on, and their filing suit
to stop it. They're non citizens wth exclamation point question mark. They're non citizens. We're not talking about people that are inactive. They're registered to vote, but they haven't voted. They're citizens of the United States. Okay, I can give them that one, but not non citizens. In Georgia, Fulton County Superior Court Judge Robert mcberniey ruled that pausing the new handcount rule was appropriate given that the election is just weeks away.
Anything that adds uncertainty and disorder to the electoral process disserves the public. Because the handcount rule is too much, too late, its enforcement is hereby and joined while the court considers the merits and petitioner and petitioner intervener's case. The judge doesn't want ballots to be hand counted. Why. I mean, I don't know enough about this to say, okay,
is Georgia just hand counting everything. There should be an optical scanner and you just zip it through and then you have the ballot paper ballot as a backup to handcount if needed. But to just say you can't handcount, I'm telling you this stinks. There's something already afoot. We're seeing it now. And this goes back to why the border I'm not saying her name, why the borders have
remained open. Speaking of Trump's vowing to end all sanctuary cities, immediately, put an end to them, and Walgreens shutting down twelve hundred stores nationwide over the next three years, obviously another sign of a booming economy. Forty one minutes after the hour, look at me, got it all in there, got a scarf, a little over meal here real quick.
You're here to make it all better, there you.
It's okay, Yes, this is the morning Show with Preston Scott.
Right, got a little oatmeal eating, feeling a little warm in the tummy. Now, got a little more to go. But yeah, I know some of you are like that.
Is so unprofessional.
Yeah, we're friends. To paraphrase one of the great sequences in movies from the classic comedy Fast Times at Ridgemont High, Sean Penn plays Jeff Spacoli, who is the ultimate stoned student, surfer dude and not very bright. And then mister Hand I think Roy Walston. Anyway, it's a brilliant scene. Mister Hand is his teacher and SPACOLEI comes into the classroom. He's a little late, as he always is. And then in comes the pizza delivery guy and he's delivering a
pizza to Jeff Spacoli. He's like, all right, thanks, He tips him and sends him on his way and he's got his pizza, and mister Hand says words to the effect of mister SPECCOLEI, what have I said about eating during our time? It's so inconsiderate and rude. It is this our time, And so Spaccolei says, hey, mister Hunt, like you said, it's our time. That's like your time and my time, right, that's right, Well, what's wrong with
having a little pizza on my time? So I understand we're sharing time here, but I'm just I'm not going to interrupt the show, although I just did talking about eating oatmeal. This is really this deserves more time than I'm going to give it today. You remember how the candidate for president and the current resident have been talking about crime dropping. Look at that crime is down. Crimes down.
FBI numbers crime violent crime is down. Without a press release, without any announcement, the FBI has revised the crime numbers the latest set of numbers for twenty twenty two, and this was uncovered by real clear investigations see Originally, the FBI said that the final crime data from twenty two reported violent crime rate fell two point one percent. Look at that crimes down? Accept it increased by four point
five percent in the revised numbers by the FBI. Eighty thousand plus more murders and rapes and robberies and aggravated assaults, eighty thousand more that they just oops, we missed them. So that entire narrative about Black Lives matter defund The police.
Didn't do anything.
Look at that crime dropped, nay Na, crime jumped, and they try to adjust the number without you knowing it. But thankfully some folks were watching, and thankfully I was watching the folks that were watching, and so now we have the truth. Forty seven minutes past the hour. Don't you love it when I'm playing comes together?
It's The Morning Show with Preston Scott. Fifty two minutes past there, Steve Stewart just a little bit.
Doctor Steve steveson next hour as well, Pause for thought. If you're thinking about a pat as a Christmas gift, lease listen to our segment. Very very important information. It's coming up. Third hour. State Senator Corey Simon and I will disclose upfront. He is a friend. I've known Corey for a very long time. We attended the same church for many years. He and his family, I yeah, so you know, I'm not adversarial with anybody that comes in here and is a guest, people that phone in, I'm
really not. I've hung up on one person. I've hung up on one one person in eight thousand plus interviews and guests, and he deserved it. Michael Schaivo, Terry Schivo's husband, who's making excuses for cutting the cable on his wife and letting her die. And yeah, click, North Carolina Democrat leader Lowell Simon sixty eight running for the State House.
But the chairman of the More County Democrat Party, sorry former chairman, sheriff deputy of Moore County, just sitting on the side of the road responding to another call, and he noticed some dude picking up all the Trump signs, just pulling him out of the ground. Bom bom, bom bom bom. Deputy's like, well, huh, made note of the license played to the car, and finished up his business.
Went went and looked up that license plate and then paid a visit to the house and inside the car were all the signs and the car belonged to the chairman of the Moore County Democrat Party, who, oh, by the way, is running for state house. Now, it'll be interesting to see if he wins that seat or if
people hold him accountable for being a thief. I don't know, but talk about bad form, I mean, my goodness, gracious, look, I have great urges to pull every yes on four yes on three sign I see and certain other signs. I mean. I remember when a former producer of this program thought it was a really good idea to put cards on people's windows when they had a bumper sticker that said Biden and whoever his running mate was at the time, name that I will not use today because
it's a free day. The card was brilliant. It said, hey, I noticed your car got vandalized and someone put a Biden sticker on it. And it might have said you can use goofa for oops and get it off really easily. Thought that was brilliant. That's great stuff. Another little story here Customs and Border Protection memo. Inside the memo, thirty percent of the agency's cameras along the US Mexico border
are not working. They're inoperable. That means about one hundred and fifty cameras, so we have zero surveillance in these areas where these cameras are no longer working, and why hasn't that been easily fixed? No, seriously, that's like swapping out a cord, a cable, swapping out cameras.
That's not.
All that difficult, is it? Is it.
A right?
We come back. Steve Stewart joined us secutive editor Tallassi Reports talk about what's going on here in the Capitol.
City Thursday on the Morning Show with Moah and Wu.
Thanks very much for joining us, Jose, can you see over there in Studio one A. I am here in Studio one B, and I am joined by the executive editor of Tallassi Reports. A new paper coming out, the One the Only Steve Stewart, Hello, good morning.
Are you little brisk out there?
I love it, absolutely love it lots. This is that we're now in the fun season. Yeah. I mean it's a busy day at the newspaper getting newspaper down Listen. I would encourage people if you don't subscribe, you're downtown, We've got newspaper boxes down there. We'll have them out there. Just check it out. I mean with this, I get so excited every time we finish a publication because we add new things that you're not going to see or hear about. Like we're going to talk about a couple
of things you will not see anywhere else. Let me also point out that yours is now basically the only out that outlet that's covering local high school sports. Let me let me tell you it's this is something that we're starting to focus on because we've got a number of people talk to us about this. And look, we're not celebrating our local athletes. And I know I'm biased. I've got you know, I have kids that have played high school athletes, but it gives me access to what's
being done. And listen, it's because of resources and the lack of you know, lack of schools aren't helping. They don't help. But listen, if you want to do it, it can get done. We got a sports page in this newspaper. It's awesome. We're highlighting I bet you've probably got fifty athletes names in our sports page. We have a scoreboard like you can box scores and stuff from high school events. We're highlighting six athletes in football and volleyball.
I mean, it's this is it's important. We always hear these commercials how important athletics are and self esteem and health and you know, and we should promote it. So we're going to try to get into that. I doubt that the race between Curtis Richardson, the incumbent, and dot Edvan Johnson the challenger, would be as acrimonious if Jeremy Mattlowe, Ryan Ray and the local Democrat Party were not so
heavily involved as they are. But it has become nasty, and Dodd has chosen to raise questions and bring in Curtis's family. What's that about. Look this whole thing of when they're trying they're trying to take national issues and trying to nationalize local elections because they care more about the progressive ideologies than they do Tallhassee, and one of those issues is abortion. Curtis Richardson, who I thought did a principal thing, voted against the city resolution politically driven
again trying to nationalize the city of Tallahassee. He voted against the resolution related to abortion because he didn't think he didn't want to get city politics or city operations entangled with an issue that's very devisive. Well, I remember what he said. He said, it's not a city issue. This state settles it it's divisive, there's no need that
we can't do anything to move the needle. He's pro choice, he's been pro choice, so this is an adult decision, and they are, these progressives are jumping on this, trying to mislead voters and calling him, you know, saying that he's not a pro choice because again the city's blue and that would cost them some votes. Well, Dotaman Johnson, who I think is on the very edge here of being unethical and a lot of different things, but this
is just really cross as a line. She posted on social media basically saying that Curtis Richardson, as a girl dad, should be more proactive in women's rights issues, you know, which goes basically at the abortion issue. But it does something that you know, there's so many lines being crossed, but usually campaigns stay away from families. And if you don't know, Curtis Richardson is married, he has two daughters.
He's very proud of yes, and for good reason. Once a naval academy grab the others in.
It, both of them.
And it's been reported that the first blacks is to to go to the naval academy. And you've got this DoD Daman Johnson, who if I was her, I wouldn't be talking about parenting and family going after Curtis Richardson's family to try to make a point about abortion and they see you and I disagree a little bit. I don't think she's going after, but she's mentioning and just the insertion of it is inappropriate. It is And again
it's all about abortion in a city commission race. This should tell you all you need to know about where they're headed. Yeah, and they have no scruples and you know it just again it lowers the bar of politics. And once again we're left with this and you don't get the full story you know about these issues, and they're just trying to fool voters. Hopefully in November because of the bigger turnout, you know, there are more people will be informed about exactly what they're trying to do.
Steve Stewart with us. The paper comes out today, we'll get a printed today, it'll be around this weekend and more on that stories in this pill definitely Okay, more to come. Steve Stewart to tell reports. My guest on The Morning Show with Preston Scott.
It's The Morning Show with President Scott.
Eleven passed the hour. Steve Stewart with me. It's Thursday, October seventeenth, show fifty two fifty six. But who's counting of the morning show with Preston Scott and we were just talking. I'm not going to take our joy away President, no way, No, God's still sitting on the throne no matter what what knuckleheads do. Below, let's talk a little bit more about the Inman Johnson campaign, because it got a cease and desist letter from Florida A and M
University and that made its way to the City Commission. Yeah. Well, so we first reported about this and then we broke the story. We got some pushback, well this is not official, somebody made up this letter. Well, you know, a couple of days later it is verified again. And so basically what has happened is going after now they're trying to capitalize on this wors A issue. Now they're saying Curtis Richardson isn't black enough. Okay, and I'm serious, this is
the ad Okay. They have some gentleman there saying that Curtis Richardson has voted against this French Town rising money in Frenchtown. You know, this yearly event or football event, and he's and when you do that, you vote against black people.
Well, first of all, just in a.
Side on the French Town Rising event, they have been given thousands of dollars and they finally got taken off list because they don't fill the proper paper the proper paperwork to tell where they're spending the money. So this year it came up and they said we're not going to give him any money. So he tell us where they're spending that money. Plus they didn't file an application, so Curtis Richardson voted with a majority and said, well,
we're not giving you any money. So that's what this is where this emanates from, right, And they used imagery of FAM you. However, the video used imagery of the FAM you banned marching one hundred exactly, and so they got a nasty letter from FAM you saying listen, cease and desist, quit using this, take this off of all your social media, you know, And so dot M and Johnson wouldn't respond to us, but she did respond to another local media outlet and she said she was unaware
of this video. That's nonsense, which is hard to believe because It was posted on the Facebook page of her campaign manager, who is her husband, who she paid three thousand dollars to of her money. So again, when you hear me talk about unethical behavior, here we are again. And the last I checked, which was probably yesterday, it's
still up on his Facebook page, okay. And so this came up to the City Commission medium because Curtge Richardson again is being attacked, you know, with these silly approaches to trying to win a campaign, and says and he actually said this publicly, so suddenly I'm not black enough, okay, and he was very obviously you could tell he was hurt. I think that Commission Richardson is hurt from this whole line of attacks from Jeremy Mattlow and the Progressive Crew.
And again, it may end up working, but this is what they're doing. And I think it's important for voters to understand this. Does it smack at all of desperation that they're going this route now or is this just win at all costs that's how they die. I don't think it's desperation. I think if you look two years ago, John Daly beat Dozer, who is the Progressive candidate by only four thousand votes, and that four thousand vote margin was the northeast. The city proper is very close to
flipping to progressive. So I don't think I think this is the way progressives go. The means justify the ends, their means spirited. I've been the brunt of it. You've been the brunt of some of it, and you know makes me smile, Yeah, me too. I mean, look, you know and so but they are they're very mean that they're liars. I mean, they lie about things without any problem. And we've seen this with this abortion issue, with this Curtis richards is not black enough, Dodaman Johnson. It's amazing
to me. And by the way, can I just insert something Curtis Richardson is black? Go ahead, no, And Dottie, oh look, and you know, here's a guy, Curtis Richardson. But he's a good guy. I mean here is he's married with two kids at the Naval Academy and they are tearing him down because of and he you know, I've watched these debates. I don't agree with him on everything, and but either what the progressives have done is they've made him look like the adult in someone who's looked, well,
you know, yeah, we we did increase. We had to increase Texas because we needed money for law enforcement. And look, crime is coming down here locally, right, but they don't even believe in law enforcement. And we'll talk about this in the next segment. But so I think this is again though, what is happening is you don't have fair reporting on this. And this is where we come in trying to let people know, like this thing about the uh, you know, the social media post going after the girl dad,
You're not going to see that anywhere. And this is a reflection of the kind of people that could be in charge at the City Commission. One last thing city Commission meeting, the firefighter agreement got signed and settled. This was a whole political, you know, hit job on the
firefighter issue, trying to again hurt Curtis Richardson. In the end, the firefighters, when it was given to them to vote, the rank and file overwhelmingly supported the negotiation process and the and the proposal by the city and so that is done finally, finally, but it was stretched out to try to get as much political cap you know, such much political benefit for the minority. Matt Low voted against the agreement. Firefighters voted for it, he voted against him.
Your friend, all right, sixteen passed the hour. More to come.
And you're back.
Investigative reporting at its finest. This Morning Show with Preston's Got twenty two past the Hour Executive editor Steve Stewart with us taking swings at the UH but the truth. Just just trying to get the truth in front of you. And there's a podcast that's floating around and I'm hesitant to talk about this, but I'm gonna trust you. Tell me. Let me tell you why. First, let me say happy
birthday that my daughter who is eighteen today. Yeah, you survive, You survived, Noah Man survive in school as a girl is not an easy thing, exactly. It just isn't so well done. Got that in now, look the reason on this podcast. So I scour social media and look for things that give some implications of what might happen, because look, I've said this for months, these progressives don't want to
tell you what they truly believe. Look, Curtis Richard said, I voted for tax increase, and this is why he's telling you. Okay, what they're not telling they're not telling you where they stand on things, okay, because if they did. Look, we did that story on it was called Homeward Bound.
Remember they're really okay, not a word from the progressives because they don't want to come out against that, Okay, because if they come out against it, it's gonna really upset the people in Waverley and Benten Hills and Midtown which are sort of on the borderline. But they don't want people and all the downtown business owners that had their doorsteps crapped on, and they don't want to come out and they don't want to come out for it, you know, And so they're caught in this this link.
So when you see these issues they don't comment on. It's just like the dot M M. Johnson social media post about Curtis Richardson's being a girl dad.
They didn't.
Jeremy Mallow didn't touch that because he knows that is not a that's not something we want to talk about. So you have to look for where they where they stand on things like the donations from California. All right, Well, why are they giving these donations, Well, because they're looking for the rapid transition to renewal energy, which means your electric racal are going to go up. Well, I found this podcast, okay of a local Democrat leader who works
for a national progressive organization. Her name is Serenity Williams, and she is a gold mine, okay for fodder. And she is a big supporter of Commission Mallow and a big supporter of dot Mon Johnson. And she's saying the things because she's young and she doesn't quite understand the dynamics, but she's saying the things that the campaign won't say. And so why does this podcast matter? I mean, who's
she connected with. Well, she's a president of the Young Democrats, so she's part of the Democrat apparatus, okay, and so and she is locally right, and she works for a national progressive group, which is again consistent what we said of them, fair enough, wanting to take the national progressive ideology and put it here in Tallahassee. So I listened to this twenty minute podcast and it took me like
a long time listen because it's tough. But she comes on and she says, you know, Courtis Richardson is against the two biggest issues that we have the Democrats, the progressives, and that is abortion and legalizing marijuana. To think about what they just said or she just said, this is what they're thinking, and Commissioner Matlow promotes this on the social media. Okay, their biggest issues on his personal social
media paper, right is abortion and legalization of marijuana. How does that even relate to the city of Tallassee and what in the business is conducted at city Hall? It doesn't. Again, another piece of evidence that they're just trying to take this in that they're trying to nationalize local elections right now. The second thing, which I think is even more important. We've talked about law enforcement and Serendi Williams, who I assume is educated, she says, you know, Curtis Richardson is
for more law enforcement. Well, are there any studies that show if you hire more police officers that you have an impact on crime. I've never seen any president. That is the most ignorant statement that I have ever heard. But this is what we're voting for.
Okay.
They don't believe that law enforcement has a deterurn effect. That is dangerous and that is the defund the police movement right there in a nutshell. And they don't want to come out and say this because people are going to go, what are you talking about? What kind of connects to the story we did in the first hour about the FBI privately quietly adjusting the crime numbers where crime has actually violent crime has gone up nationwide, it's
not dropping exactly. They want to do what these progressive cities have already done and failed that. Okay, they want to spend more money on social programs and take it away from law enforcement. And we gave the example in Oakland. This is written up. You can go find this. They cut the law enforcement two years ago thirty million dollars. They had to bring in the California Highway Patrol because of the crime spike in Oakland. So this is dangerous.
The second thing is the police station. You hear them talking about the cost of the police station, which is can be a very credible issue. But it's not about the cost of the police station. It's about law enforcement. Because in this podcast they referred to this police station as cop City, which is a reference to Atlanta with all the progressives are up in arms because Atlanta building a new training facility for law enforcement. Progressives don't like
law enforcement. And if you're voting for a Mattlow majority on the city Commission. That's what you're voting for. And I'll be here, you know, to say I told you so if and when that happens. By the way, can I just add something. The City of Portland, in case you didn't know, Folks is restructuring itself and they have expanded districts and I have gone to districts and are going to a twelve person city commission. They're trying to dilute.
They're trying to make it more representative. And because they've seen what crime and what's happened to business. And I have long said, if you want Portland here, you know exactly how to vote. Thank you, Steve, Thank.
You President Dublin UFLA. If you are thinking even thinking.
About getting a patent for a loved one one of your kids, pause for thought segment, just a few minutes here to help. Also got a road trip idea Halloween theme related sort of kind of just saying, I know, li Legie lit legie, that's where we live. We live on that edge. Then next hour, Corey Simon, state senator running for reelection. Corey'll be in studio. Just so you know, I did invite Darryl Parks to come in a month
and a half ago. No word, nothing. They don't want to answer questions about the ridiculous campaign he's run, the lies he's told, and he's admitted it. He's admitted that he lied. We'll get to all that, but we'll talk about you know, what needs, what Corey thinks needs to still get done here in Florida, and what he thinks is teed up to get done in the next legislative session. Big stories in the press box. Walgreen's shutting down twelve
hundred stores. Another side of a strong economy. Huh that's bidnomics. Ah yeah, buddy, More stores closing and look. To be fair, it's not all due to Bidenomics, though most of it is. Some of it is due to the transition from brick and mortar to online shopping. Online shopping is easy, it doesn't fit you send it back now. There's certain things that I absolutely prefer to shop in person, and if if at all possible, I'm buying local. If at all possible,
I'm buying local. Even if I spend a little bit more. I'm not going to shop online to save ten bucks. If I can find that local that same exact item, and it costs me more. I'm good with that because I believe in the value of local spending. Sadly, not everybody in elected office in this community agrees with the idea of local business and development and all of that. But that's the story for another day. Trump vowing to
end all sanctuary cities. He's looking into something. I haven't looked into it, so I'm just I'm quoting him the Alien Enemies Act of seventeen ninety eight. He would invoke that. He said, I don't hey, if it works, if the shoe fits, come on, let's slide that bad boy on because we are in an invasion Georgia. But Georgia, Georgia. Judge, I can say that halts ballot hand count for the
twenty twenty four election. That's silly. What's dangerously stupid is a federal judge in Alabama blocking the removal of non citizens from voter roles. I personally think it's a misapplication of the law that she's quoting. I think you should be allowed to remove a non citizen from voter roles to the day of the election. They show up to vote. They're not in this they can't prove they are a
citizen or resident of this country. Legally, they're removed from the roles right then and there, scratch that name out. Forty minutes past the hour, come back, Doctor Steve Stevenson joins us. Next Pause for Thought is next here on the Morning Show with Preston Scott. Good Day on News Radio one seven UFLA. I am so energized when the weather cools down. I'm serious, I am. I am like wired and I haven't even had any caffeine or Coca cola. Doctor Pepper. Nothing love this time of year, and of
course we start thinking holidays. I start thinking in July. But we're gonna We're gonna get ahead of this this time. Joining me in our pause for Thoughts segment, Doctor Steve Stevenson of the Bradfordville Animal Hospital.
Good morning, sir, Hey Preston, how are you?
I am fired up? I love this weather. I love the change of seasons. I hope it sticks around, but I wanted to get ahead of it this year. People frequently think that, and look, it's cute. It makes for incredible videos online giving a pet Christmas time, but there are some practical considerations that people ought to be thinking about if they're if they're considering the idea.
Oh, absolutely, because you know it's so important to get the right pet for your family or for yourself, and so you got to be very careful when you make that choice. You know, getting a pet is not just a simple decision. It is a huge commitment, and so you definitely want to make the right decision up front, and thinking about early like we're doing now is an excellent, excellent idea. You know, there's a lot of things to consider. Number one, of course, is are you getting this pet
for yourself? Are you getting it for somebody else or for you know, a girlfriend or another person, make sure they want that pet if you're getting for somebody else other than yourself or your family. And then probably the
number one thing to think about is your lifestyle. You know, are you are you able now to work from homes here at home where your pet is all the time, you can take it out of a few hours for a little walk in the yard, or are you gone for I thinks that you know, days at a time, because you travel a lot, and those kind of types of things really influence what kind of pet is good for you, you know, And then you want to make sure how do you think you can interact with your pet?
You know?
Are you someone that likes to run and you want a dog going to and go jog with you? You know? Or are you going to Are you a hunter and you want dogs gotten a dug field with you? Or do you like to curl up and read a good book?
You know?
And see you need a pet that's going to sit on the couch with you and cuddle with you while you're on the couch reading a good book watching television. So what you do when your hours is very important. Type of pet that's adaptable to you. She want to make sure you think about those things as well. And oftentimes, you know, you can either used to be back in the day, animal hospital has had a list of breeders.
You can call an animal hospital and say hey, I'm looking for whatever, an English cocker spaniel, and the receptors could look on their list. Oh, well, here's a breeder you can call. Nowadays, that's kind of gone by the wayside. It's all research on the internet. So you can go online and you can google and look for your particular bread you want. You can find a quality breeder of
that breed. And have a you know, and find them that way to go get a pet, you want to make sure you get a good quality breer that has a really good reputation, does a really good job of raising puppies, checking the parents out to make sure the parents are healthy, don't have any heritable diseases that you're going to receive when you get that puppy.
Doctor Seaver said, let me ask you on that subject of breeders. Is there some well regarded certification or seal of approval if you will, that can verify that the breeder is reputable and good.
There's not a universal seal of approval question. So the best thing is to do your research, find a breeder, then go talk to your veterinarian and say here's what I'm looking at, and they'll say, Okay, this breed has these heritable traits. What are they doing to protect you from those types of things? Okay, that's usually the best
way to go about looking at that. And again they're also talking to your veterinarian about the breed you're thinking about is a really good idea, so they can give you a heads up on what you want to watch for and stay away from and things like that. So a good conversation with your veterinarian is a really really good idea to make sure you're making the right choice for you for yourself.
And I want to pick up on this topic and expand on it some more in our next visit. But between now and then, we're going to have Halloween, and I wanted you to get in a quick little reminder for those that have pats during the Halloween season.
Absolutely pressing. Chocolate is part of the number one candy that people receive at Halloween, and chocolate is toxic to dogs and cats, And so we always see dogs and cats that come in afterwards because I got into the Halloween candy and they come in and they're having irregular heartbeats and arrhythmias and all kinds of medical problems because
of chocolate. Now, other candies can cause problems as well, So be very very aware and very careful with any candies you're getting out or you're receiving at Halloween to keep your pets out of it.
Yeah, because they smell good and those pets are going to go right for him, absolutely, Doctor Steverson. As always, thank you very much. We'll talk again next month.
Great.
Thanks christ thank you, sir, Doctor Steve steveson with us. We'll carry this on more tips if you're thinking about buying a pet for the holidays for a gift. Forty six Past the Hours The Morning Show with Preston Scott Road drips suggestion in just a couple of moments. But first few things. Number one, if you missed the first part of the program. First part of the program, well the benches that I quit. We we're not saying her name today. I explained my reasoning first half hour of
the show. It's a free day today. That that was a fill in the blank. It's a free day today, not just not. I'm not doing any stories about her. I'm not not gonna do it. Just I need a break. I didn't watch the interview. There's no reason to watch the interview. I've seen clips of it. But what's the point really, what is the point? It will be front page news when she says something that is intelligent, that is worth reporting. So yeah, just nope, not gonna do it.
Not today, maybe tomorrow, but not today. I just so. Also, State Senator Corey Simon will join us next hour. He's scheduled to come in stock Udio and spend some time here. We will talk about the decision to run for reelection. Trust me when I tell you the decision to run for state office was not taken lightly. I know Corey.
I'm not going to suggest that we're best buddies, but I would say we're friends, and I have very high regard for him, and I will in fact tell you that I was encouraging him long before he ever made a decision to run for state office. To run for office. That's what I think of him and the qualities that I think he brings to the table. I think he's a very thoughtful, reflective guy. I think he's smart. And so we're gonna we're gonna chat. We're gonna chat about
the campaign. We're gonna chat about his first term in office and what he thinks the future would look like if he should retain your confidence and retain the seat. But now it's time road trip idea on the road again. If you're driving around the country, or if you're thinking, if you're planning, if you're plotting, and in the month of October, I'm kind of keeping it theme oriented. And I know for some of you that's a little edgy.
If you ever checked out the Haunted Cosmos podcast and learned the back story to Halloween, what we now call Halloween in America. You would understand a little bit more about its roots and its purpose and how it came a beat came to be, and you wouldn't be quite so afraid of it. But we have kind of demonized it a little bit. But that said, it's still a
thing for a lot of people. And I will confess to you, I wouldn't mind going to Sleepy Hollow, the home of the Headless Horseman and the story of Icabod Crane. I mean, that's just that is such a classic October yarn. And there's a website, visit Sleepyhollow dot com. And so if you are if you are going to make a trip to the Northeast, this would be this would be one of the places that I think you would want to make a road trip to see.
It's about three hours three and a half hours from Boston to two and a half hours from Philadelphia.
It's just it's a thing.
So that's my suggestion. Check it out. Visit sleepyhllow dot com. Fifty six minutes past the hour, take a break for news, weather, traffic, Corey Simon expected to join me next hour. Three already on the Morning Show with Preston Scott. Here we go, third hour already, I'm literally turning the page on the rundown. Here we go. It is a show fifty two to fifty six of the Morning Show with Preston Scott. Great to be with you. And is this the first time
we've been actually, I mean since you've been elected. Is this the first time we've talked in studio? In studio, we did a radio, we did a phone or phone interview. Yeah, but this is the first time in studio. Yeah.
Do you like my place? I do like your place. It's been a while, Yeah.
I have. And I don't know if you'll admit it, but I admit it. I have mentioned to listeners that were friends. We've known each other for a very long time, a long long time, and I remember the days of trying to nudge you into running for office, thinking very
highly of you. And so I say that in fairness up front, because although I'm fair to anyone who comes in here, I want people to understand that we talk at a little bit of a different level than a standard you know, media person and candidate or in this case incumbent. So with that said and out of the way, why'd you decide to run for reelection?
Oh?
Man, Because there's work to be done. I think over the last two years we have done an amazing job of really tackling some big issues that I ran on, workforce education being one of those, education in general, educational school choice, and that was a huge one for me. It was personal for me. And so those are things that that we got done and I saw the You know, for me, I need to see the ship turn right. I can't just be on a ship that's not that's just floating out there. I need to be able to
see results, and we're seeing those results. And so because of that, that's why I want to keep going, Because there's a lot left to do. When you ride around this When I ride around this district, and.
And it's a huge district too, it is.
A big district, thirteen counties. I've got the largest district in the state. But when I ride around this district, the need is so great and I know I have an opportunity and a seat at the table to make sure that I can tackle those needs. I got out of the thirteen counties twelve are fiscally constrained, and so you take counties like Liberty County that has an avalorm of three million dollars, you can't build, you can't grow
with three million dollars. You're living off grants. And so for me, it's it's making sure that these folks aren't forgotten. And that's why I show up. I was on a conversation before walking in here with my folks over in Swanee County and looking at getting a regional shelter built over there, because I had eocs across this district after the stormhead that had to desert their eocs to go
to other places. Your emergency operation centers are supposed to be your base hubs in the times of disaster, and they couldn't be in those places because they just weren't built to assand the storms.
Yeah.
Yeah, So there's a lot of work that needs to be done. We've got rural health care all across the district that is struggling making sure that people can see their doctors. And there's just a lot of issues that still need to be tackled. And two years went by way too fast, and you're trying to get as much done as you possibly can, but we've still got big issues that we have to tackle.
I might have inadvertently for guys to say it's Corey Simon is here with me. Corey is representing the third State Senate district here in Florida. You mentioned the breadth of this district, the diversity of the district, the size of the district. We're going to run a minute long here, Hose, because I want to give you a chance to just explain. You are pro life. I am, but you voted against the six week ban, and I remember you and I talking about that and I said, give me your thoughts,
and you did. I'd like you to share them with our listeners.
Well, just my personal story and why I'm pro life is my wife and I. We have one son, he's twenty one years old. That wasn't the initial plan. I really wanted a big family, and we got pregnant several times, but we miscarried several times. Unfortunately, God has a plan
and I understand that, but it was tough. It was tough to you know, my son is an absolute blessing, but we've lost a lot of kids over of the last twenty years, and so I have an affinity and affection for young kids and for babies, and I wanted those kids. But that's why I am pro life. But I understand my district and it doesn't always come down to what my personal feelings are. When I ran for office at the time, fifteen weeks is where the law was, and that's what was being pushed in a lot of
different places. And they said, you know what, fifteen weeks was somewhere about right. And when the six week band came up, I had already given my word to this district. And whether it's you know, Democrat, Republican, NPA, I give my word, and when I give my word, my word means something. Yep. And so that's why I voted the way I did, because I wanted to make sure that the folks could trust me in this district to do what I said I would do. What that is.
Elected person doing what they say they'll do.
I try to do this job the way I always wanted to see it be done. Amendment for i'm a I'm a I'm an absolute no amendment for Yeah, I think it goes too far. I just think when you start talking about tax payer dollars and stripping away parental this concent those are big issues for me.
Those first words no, no law shall restrict scary words. Corey Simon with me, we got more time to come here in the morning ship with Preston.
Scott past the hour.
State Senator Corey Simon, Florida's third State Senate district. Our guest, what's the what is the next biggest thing on the list? I mean, I could probably grab the low hanging fruit, which is your district has been hammered in the last few weeks a couple of times, and well in the last few months a few times. And how is the district, first of all, recovering from the last set of storms?
Oh? Man, it is. It has been a gut punch when you look back a couple of months ago and you had the tornadoes come through here, right, and then of course over the last thirteen months we've had three hurricanes, and so this last one was just a gut punch. When you ride down the coast and from Digle Beach all the way down the Horseshoe Beach and Dixie County,
it's absolutely decimated. And when I was driving to Keaton Beach and you look for every one home that may be standing there fifteen to twenty homes that it's just nothing but a concret each lap uh. And so these these these folks have been hammered. You know, the farming industry, chicken houses that are laying on the ground, that just product that has just gone Pilgrim is one of the largest producers and job providers in the in the district. Uh. And so you know, those those folks have just been
beat up. You know. The I think the mental health counseling that are that is going to need to happen for a lot of these families is going to be ongoing because they've put everything into rebuilding after Adelia. Uh and then to see it all just go away. That's tough. It's tough to stand in front of a family that has just lost it all for the second and maybe third time.
What role does the state play? What can what role can it play well?
And that's that's the great that's the great thing about this job. After Adelia hit, I sat down with our folks over at ft AX and sat down with the Governor's office and sat down with our leadership, President Pasadomo and and President designated all Britain, and we came up with a plan to tackle some of the issues after Adelia. I ran a disaster disaster recovery bill in terms of about a four hundred million dollars that we put back
into the debt into the district. You know, it was really trying to get our forestry industry back up and running and making sure that those folks can go and replant and clean up, and then gave them a glad path. We had a ten year loan, zero interest loan with the last three years forgiven for those farmers to get back on their feet so they can start seeing some production and start to put some money back in their policet before they have to come back to the state.
So I think we can do a lot. I think we can expand on that program.
There is no international airport in this area, you know, I mean, let's set Tallahassee aside. I mean, but you know what I mean, largely the area that has been hit the hardest by these recent storms in the last year and a couple of months. This area doesn't have any big noteworthy cities and it's easy for them to fall off the map and in this case almost literally.
Yeah, no. And and that's what I said when the day the storm hit and I was standing over in Perry with those with the families and the and the folks over there. And one of the things that I said when the cameras were there, I said, listen, long after the cameras are gone, and they'll be gone quickly, I will still be talking about the recovery and the response efforts and making sure that we get back up on our feet. I'm not gonna let the folks outside
of these cities that were impacted forget about us. And I'll continue to beat that drum. It's important, you know, these families have chosen to live in the areas that they live. It's a gorgeous part of the state. It's
an important part of the state. Absolutely. Is when you go to your grocery store, people we take for granted and I didn't grow up farming, and so when I when you go into your grocery store, you walk into your public so or you pickli wiggly and you pick up a piece of meat and you're in some you know, cabbage or whatever, and you just walked there and you pay for it. But that's not how it happens. It
didn't just get there. And so but I went and spend time with farmers, and you understand that the margins are very thin already. We're waiting on a on a on a farm bill that hasn't happened in Washington, d C. In a long time, and trying to dig these folks out. And so prices of our food goes up when the supply goes down, and so we've got to make sure that we're sewing up these areas and making sure that these folks stay in the business, because we're losing our
farmers every single day. Farmers are walking away from the business. They just they can't take it anymore, they can't afford it. And so it's it's important for us to make sure that we do all that we can to save our industry here. I think we have a tremendous opportunity in this region.
I don't think. I don't think. I don't think citizens understand in the state how big ag culture is in this state.
Yeah, it's massive, it is. It is. I don't know. When you drive down out ten, just take a look into the left and right before you get to seventy five, they're everywhere you get off, you know, drive down fifty one and get into Lafayette County and see where our dairies are, see the production that's going on there.
Corey, do you think you mentioned the farm bill and the dysfunction on a federal level. Florida is fiscally in a very good position. This state has taken care of its finances. Of course, go figure, no income tax and a balanced budget. Amazing, Think what can happen? Right? But does the state need to think about Okay, if the Feds aren't coming through on the farm bill, we need to come up with our own own form of it.
Well, and now we will be doing that in the upcoming session. We will. The great thing is my dear friend and President designated Ben All Britain and comes from rural Florida. He from the heartland. He is a farmer. He's a citrus farmer in our centrius industry has been absolutely dismantled to the storm through Milton and greening and greening exactly the citrus screening that's happened. So I'm excited
because he is from rule Florida. He understands it, and he's passionate about it, and so I look forward to running that bill in the upcoming session, and we're gonna get some things done for these folks.
I loved your use of the word tackle. It just seems appropriate.
Yeah, I hit other problems now I just don't run into people anymore.
That's good to see it. Corey Simon with us and again running to return to the State Senate in District three. And there you go. Thanks for the time, twenty eight past the hour.
On news Radio one point seven UFLA.
Okki running a little late, That's okay, it was worth the extra time. I just wanted to drop a note in. I talked about this in the break with Corey, and it's been pointed out to me Bice some text from buddies as well as emails. It should be noted that the biggest factor impacting insurance rates in the Sunshine State trial attorneys and litigation lawsuits that are silly and frivolous. That sadly, insurance companies have taken the tack of just
saying whatever and paying out versus fight. The insurance companies are in a business that requires actuarial considerations, not actual actuarial There's a difference, and so they make the decision based on numbers. Pay the claim instead of make a point, win the suit. Fight back against this stuff. It is ironic, to say the least to hear of states in a candidate Darryl Parks complain about insurance rates and efforts by the state legislature to reduce frivolous lawsuits when he's a
trial attorney that chases ambulances. That's what he does. Hello, of course he's upset about it. Big stories in the press box this morning. Quickly. Federal judge blocks Alabama's efforts to remove non citizens from voter roles. This is a hinge of the jaw swinging open. You've got to be kidding me moment. I think that the judge is misapplying federal law here. You should be able to remove a non citizen from the voting roles if they show up
on election day and try to vote. I would go so far as to say that person deserves to be arrested. Judge and Georgia halting hand counting ballots for the twenty twenty four election, Walgreen's shutting down twelve hundred stores. Nothing says a robust Bidenomics economy like shutting down stores of one of the biggest changes in the country.
And.
Trump said that if he's elected again returned to the White House, he will end sanctuary cities using something called the Alien Enemies Act of seventeen ninety eight. Go get them. Forty minutes past the hour, come back and catch up with a couple other stories still to come.
It's the Morning Show with Preston.
Scott visit with Senator Corey Simon. We'll be on The Conversation's podcast before the clock strikes nine, maybe even nine fifteen, probably nine oh five, because that's that's how this staff around here works. Disney is getting blasted almost unfairly in this case. Look, Disney deserves all of the grief it gets. It didn't just wade into the woke waters it can embold and in doing so, splashed everybody around the pool.
But if you heard about the new cake shop opening up at Disney World at the Boardwalk in Orlando, the cake Shop by Gwendolyn Rogers, Now it's going where the ESPN Club used to be. The ESPN Club shut down in the midst of COVID nineteen. Look, COVID nineteen was the bullet to the head of the ESPN Club because ESPN has just disintegrated itself with wokeness and its popularity just waned as a result. This is replacing it. It's a restaurant, but it's a bakery. Gwendolen Rogers apparently is
a thing. She has developed quite a reputation for high end cakes, deserves and I guess food. But the pricing is causing people to go, You've lost your ever loving mind. A slice of cake twenty two dollars. In fact, Gwendolen's famous Earl's Court chocolate cake is twenty six dollars. A slice Oprah's O List mint chocolate cake enough reason to not go there is that item twenty four dollars.
A slice.
The Pumpkin spice cinnamon bake roll cake is twenty two dollars.
A slice.
A Coca cola will cost you eight dollars. A hamburger will cost you thirty two dollars. Can you imagine what the wine, beer, and champagne will cost now? Entering Disney in California is gonna cost you more than two hundred dollars per person per day on busy days. Orlando's raising its prices will it will be very interesting to see who dines at the cake shop. I say it's a little unfair to Disney because this is independent of Disney.
This isn't this is. It's her right to price this however she wants, and it's the public's right to either spend an obscene amount of money. I will eat my wife's cake with a Duncan Hinz boxed ingredient set of ingredients and enjoy it immensely more because my sweet wife made it because she loves me, and that will be
infinitely better. Then. Okay, let's figure even if it's a hearty slice, eight slices, so one hundred and seventy six dollars for one cake at twenty two a slice or twenty yeah, twenty two slice, and that's for the cheap cake. Cheap cake, twenty two slice. That's insane. Anyway, I'm just letting you know about it. If you want to go, here's what I If you go, send me an email, let me know you went, let me know your thoughts.
I will not out you, because I promise you, if you drop that kind of money at that place, everybody who knows you will be asking you for a loan. So I promise if you go, I will I will read your review and not out you. I will not use your name. Forty six minutes after them at iHeartRadio dot com, a little shout out to the students at
Bay District Schools. Well done. You remember, well maybe some of you remember what happened with Hurricane Michael, but students taking part in Operation home Front Storm Relief Donation Drive. Students from all of the Bay District Schools have been collecting essential items to help those that have need. And so congratulations to all of you. Now, really well done. That is in keeping with the spirit of this radio program, the Mad Radio Network making a difference, and so I
thank you. I've got some people that are asking about the giving season this year. I'm still praying. I have had a few things that I've researched and looked into, and I know this is going to sound almost cliche, but I just don't have it settled in my heart yet. And I've always just trusted that God would lay on my heart what we're to do. And maybe it's nothing
this year. I don't know. I don't have an answer for you right now, So just pray that if we're to collectively as a radio program across the country try to help and we you know, the funds we've raised
have been anywhere from five thousand to forty thousand. We've done everything from bill to home for orphans in Malawi to supporting that home, to blessing waiters and waitresses during COVID with a bonus that they wouldn't have gotten otherwise because COVID they were shut down and they you know, we gave out some money at Christmas time and it was just it was awesome and it was because of you.
We built a water well in Cambodia to a village that's never ever ever had water and oh, by the way, they plumbed it too, they actually had water to their homes. We did that, and we've done other things. We've sent kids to college, We've i mean, we've helped pay the bills. We've done some incredible stuff over the years. And I'm really proud of you, and I'm proud to host a program that has people so generous of spirit and heart and resources as you. So I'm just asking you to pray.
You don't have to pray for me, although I would never turn that down, just saying, but I would appreciate just I just want clarity. That's I just want some clarity. And I don't know any other way to be than transparent with you about all of this. So we'll see where it goes.

I have just joked, there's the sign of a booming economy. Huh. I didn't talk about this story, so I'm gonna hold on to it. I just I never got to that story, and it was a big story. I'd never I never got to it. And that's with the I'm not mentioning
name on the show once. Once we got past six point twenty this morning Eastern time, I did not mention her name. I may not mention it tomorrow. I don't know. We'll see Georgia blood judge. Why am I saying that a Georgia judge haltsmore ballid hand counting for the twenty twenty four election. Why but the bigger one is why a federal judge is blocking Alabama from removing non citizens from the voter rules. That smacks of something dirty there.
Hopefully it will be overturned on appeal. Hopefully it will be appealed, because that's just stupid, and that's where we focus on around here. Stuff that's stupid. We talked about it. Tomorrow, the best and worst of the week, we'll have some good news to share. What's the beefy your calls?
