  • Bad country music singer

    Local Country Music singer on nov 3rd was absolutely awful.

    Stick to your coverage of local news and politics which has made the show worthwhile.

    If you’re going to have guests on phones tell them not to use the hands-free as the sound is awful.

Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

There's 1 way Arizona Republicans can prevent a 'blue wave' on Election Day
Q: What did you conclude about where bats originated?
Matthew Jones says the study's fossil and living-species comparisons suggest bats originated in Europe during the Paleocene, between about 66 million and 56 million years ago.
There's 1 way Arizona Republicans can prevent a 'blue wave' on Election Day
Q: What do the early-voting numbers tell us so far?
Tony Connie says many Republicans who previously voted on Election Day have voted early this cycle, reflecting a return to earlier voting patterns rather than necessarily indicating a Republican surge.
Early ballots are flowing in. Do they show a 'blue wave' coming?
Q: How concerned are you and your members about this?
There is concern but not panic. Ranchers have been preparing to observe animals, collect evidence and treat potential cases; preventive treatments, targeted sterile-fly releases and technology offer tools that were not available during earlier outbreaks.
Early ballots are flowing in. Do they show a 'blue wave' coming?
Q: How much can you tell by watching early ballots?
Early ballot totals can indicate voter enthusiasm and turnout levels, show relative party participation when data is available, and help campaigns identify voters to mobilize.
Arizonans hit the polls with groceries, gas, rent and housing on their minds
Q: What about climate change do you think should be taught in schools?
Schifter recommends teaching core principles: Earth is our home, human activity is warming it, the effects are happening now, and people can take action. Students also need to understand how climate change relates to their future careers.
