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

— When will President Joe Biden stop bleeding in polls?

Jackson and Musick are joined by radio talk show host Matt Murphy from Talk 99.5 in Birmingham.

Jackson closes the show with a “Parting Shot” directed at those who think our workforce issues are just normal supply and demand issues that aren’t tied to the Biden administration’s flawed policies.

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.
