On Real News with Rick Outzen Tomorrow Morning at 7:10 AM

I've been invited to apperar on Monday's Real News with Rick Outzen radio show at 7:10.

I've been invited to appear on Monday morning's "Real News with Rick Outzen" show on the area's number one, most informative, local, trusted and highly respected news radio station AM 1370 WCOA.

Rick's show, which is the area's top rated morning drive news program, treats the listeners as adults and lets his guests take the appropriate time necessary to explain positions, initiatives, votes, and other current actions/events.  Other area show hosts rush the guests, interrupt them, then take inordinate amounts of time to speak down to listeners in obnoxious attempts at "explaining."  It's off-putting and doesn't work.

Rick's show, by contrast, does work.  That's why he is #1 in the timeslot.

Tomorrow we will discuss last week's special budget meeting, the Committee of the Whole, Opioids and the new county initiative to combat our overdose issue(s) and more than likely the board's decision to purchase a brand new aerial platform for ECFR--out of cycle and at a significant cost savings to the taxpayers.

It should be a good conversation.  Once Rick publishes the podcast, I will link it here.

A Local Circuit Court Judge's Take on Direct File

Circuit Court Judge Gary Bergosh weighed in on several interesting topics during a morning radio interview yesterday on AM 1370 WCOA.

A big topic of discussion was the issue of direct file for certain juvenile suspects into the Adult System. This issue created a bit of consternation on the Board of County Commissioners last week as a resolution in support of eliminating direct file was passed by the BCC by a 3-2 vote.

Additional issues were discussed as well, to include the recent Parkland massacre.

Listen to the interview here

On WCOA this Morning

The topics for discussion include the budget, the budget appeal by ECSO, my thoughts on assuming the chairmanship of the BCC, and the recent allegation that the BCC violated the open meeting law.

Interesting interview can be heard here.

On WCOA this Morning...

I will appear on the radio this morning on WCOA to discuss issues dealing with the County to include our budget, Jack Brown's contract, Wedgewood, and my impending chairmanship of the Escambia BCC.
