A high-energy, unfiltered morning talk show host returned to the air after a brief illness, sounding about 85% but fired up and ready to go. He kicked things off by announcing he’s permanently dropping all personal drama and online stalker nonsense from the show (“that stuff gets the least engagement anyway; y’all clearly don’t care”), and instead wants to focus on the topics the audience actually enjoys. He ran a quick poll: In order of preference, what do you want the show to cover most?
  1. Hyper-local city and county issues
  2. Statewide stories
  3. National/Trump/world events
  4. Sports (toss it in wherever it fits)
Most early feedback said “keep the mix but lean heavy on local rot and national politics.”Main topics of the morning:
  1. Street preachers and the First Amendment fight headed to the Supreme Court
  • A group of aggressive street preachers who scream insults, call women whores and Jezebels, and wave graphic aborted-fetus signs at concertgoers, restaurant patios, and public events have been restricted to a designated protest zone outside a local amphitheater.
  • After repeated fights (including one preacher getting punched), the city passed an ordinance moving them away from the entrance. The preachers sued, claiming religious/free-speech violations, and the case is now SCOTUS-bound.
  • Host’s take: “This isn’t real evangelism; this is theater kids trying to get punched so they can play victim and sue. It’s a grift that makes Christians look insane and drives people away from faith. You have the right to speak, but you don’t have the right to scream fighting words in people’s faces while they’re just trying to eat dinner or go to a concert. Moving them across the street is common-sense time/place/manner restriction, not censorship.”
  1. The city of Jackson passing an ordinance that officially prohibits city employees from associating with or doing business with known drug dealers
  • Introduced by a longtime councilman who says “dope boys have too much control in certain neighborhoods.”
  • Host (who grew up in and ran nightlife in the city for decades) called it one of the wildest headlines he’s ever seen, proof of how deep the corruption and cultural rot had gotten:
    • Cops, code-enforcement officers, and even some DA staff grew up with the same drug dealers they’re now supposed to police or prosecute.
    • Street pressure (“you don’t snitch on Pookie”) plus low pay makes corruption easy and common.
    • Many nightclubs, car washes, detail shops, and bars in the city are allegedly money-laundering fronts for dealers; some owners are the dealers themselves.
    • Past stories of JPD officers escorting drug shipments or letting connected dealers walk after traffic stops were cited as symptoms of the same disease.
  • He praised the new mayoral administration and current council for at least acknowledging the problem out loud and trying to do something about it, noting he hasn’t heard the usual racial-grievance or “black jobs” talking points since they took over.
Other quick hits:
  • A Mississippi man who impersonated a drug-task-force agent and actually showed up at the sheriff’s office when they called his bluff = instant “F Around and Find Out” champion of the day.
  • Breaking news that the January 6 pipe-bomber has finally been arrested (suspect reportedly tied to anarchist/Antifa ideology).
  • Quick celebration that certain blue states refusing to turn over welfare-fraud data may lose federal SNAP funding soon.
Overall tone: zero sugar-coating, heavy on local culture-rot commentary, strong defense of reasonable free-speech limits when they prevent real-world harassment, and cautious optimism that the city might finally be turning a corner under new leadership.The host closed by saying it was one of his favorite shows in months and promised a “FAFO Friday” tomorrow.
