    Guatemalas in the school system with the employment that is there . It wasn’t this way two years ago at the schools, they were all American. I’m afraid for our children! These people are from out of the country. Please investigate the townships in Indianapolis. Our tax dollars going to schools is not okay to fund illegals. No amnesty!

  • Smokey

    I agree with most of his views, however, his stammering and stuttering is incredibly annoying. How can someone have a radio show with a speech impediment? Listen and try to count the stammering incidents. You will give up counting after just a few minutes. Very hard to listen.

  • Love TK but...

    Love listening to both the morning show and TK Today. However, I don’t always get to listen live. I missed the shows last week and couldn’t find them on Apple podcasts. Is this an oversight?
