Wake up Call for Wednesday: Rick Outzen visits the WPNN Studios Live

 


Today on the wake-up call live on WPNN 103.7 we welcomed to the show veteran radio host and current owner and publisher of InWeekly and Rick’s Blog-Rick Outzen.  I have known Rick for 20 years and along the way we have had some significant disagreements on some issues, and also a lot of mutual agreements on other issues.  He is a guy with his finger on the pulse of this town, and we talked a lot about his issue which went live today online and goes to print tomorrow.  He spotlighted some posts of interest—including a post that indicates commissioners and others may be colluding on votes outside of meetings, which is a huge no-no.  We also talked about the Clerk’s insatiable desire that I pay the county some legal fees which will not happen, and I went through the very salient reasons why not.  It was a very good conversation, and you will not want to miss the discussion(s)!

In addition to this, we discussed:

-local news—Laser warning system could be installed to protect Graffiti Bridge from more Truck strikes, a possible tornado touches down in Midway, big FPL rate increase being requested, David Bear being questioned by the Chappie James Monument group about whether or not he really made a donation to that cause (Bear produced the canceled check…)

-Treasury Secretary Lutnick on potential tariffs deal

-Zelinski Ready to sign minerals deal

-Latest on the Congo/M23 war costing thousands of Black lives and the carnage of which is not being reported

-Highlights from Trump’s Speech

-Representative Al Green on why he disrupted the speech

--and much more
