April 24, 2022

Radio talk show host Dale Jackson and 256Today CEO Mecca Musick take you through Alabama’s biggest political stories, including:

— Will there be an endorsement in the U.S. Senate race as candidates Katie Britt and Mike Durant continue to attack each other?

— Has Governor Kay Ivey decided she can get to her reelection by focusing on national issues?

— Will more education professionals pretend they can’t understand the very clear laws the Alabama Legislature has passed in support of parents’ rights?

Talk 99.5 talk radio host Tim Melton joins the show to discuss the local Alabama municipalities’ marijuana laws, the U.S. Senate race and everything happening in Alabama politics this week.

Jackson closes the show with a “Parting Shot” directed at those who demand Disney keep its special status while operating in an overtly political way without realizing that removing special protections is not an attack on speech.

Watch:

Dale Jackson is a contributing writer to Yellowhammer News and hosts a talk show from 5-9AM weekdays on WVNN and on Talk 99.5 from 10AM to noon.
