We start the show with a commentary on the scenes last night in Minneapolis. Discuss how the "plan" of too many Democratic leaders is to wait for November and win the midterm elections. With Trump threatening to use the Insurrection Act, there is not a guarantee there will be elections. Plus, it appears the people are once against ahead of their leaders. We also discuss the water carrying for the fascists by the radio station down the street and their morning show host.
Grand Theater Executive Director Sean Wright joined us to discuss what was a busy end to 2025 and beginning of 2026 plus some great shows coming to the Grand soon. Also an update as they great closer to the beginning of the renovation of the Grand.
