On today's episode of Florida Focus, host Bill dives into a packed lineup of timely stories shaping the Sunshine State and beyond. Marking the solemn 40th anniversary of the Space Shuttle Challenger disaster on January 28, 1986, we reflect on the tragic loss of seven brave crew members—including teacher Christa McAuliffe—whose 73-second flight ended in explosion due to O-ring failure in freezing conditions, sparking lasting lessons in engineering integrity, risk management, and NASA's safety protocols that still echo today. Shifting to forward-looking policy, we explore the new "Trump Accounts," tax-advantaged savings vehicles launched under recent legislation, offering families a $1,000 federal pilot deposit for children born between 2025 and 2028 to jumpstart long-term financial security and the American Dream. In foreign policy spotlight, Secretary of State Marco Rubio, Florida's own, commands the Senate Foreign Relations Committee with sharp, decisive testimony—schooling members on U.S. strategy amid high-stakes issues like Venezuela's political upheaval and beyond, showcasing his deep expertise from years on the committee. Closer to home, Tampa Bay Rays fans face sticker shock as new estimates peg a proposed Tampa stadium at a staggering $2.3 billion (excluding surrounding development), raising big questions about public funding, economic impact, and the team's future in the region. Finally, a practical winter-weather heads-up for Floridians: Is it legal to let your car idle unattended to warm up? State law (Florida Statute 316.1975) prohibits leaving a vehicle running and unattended without stopping the engine and locking it, even in your driveway—aimed at preventing theft and accidents—so bundle up instead of risking a ticket. Plus much more local news, insights, and analysis—tune in for the full discussion!

In this packed January 22, 2026, edition of The Bill Bunkley Show, host Bill Bunkley delivers his signature faith-centered conservative briefing from Tampa studios amid personal chaos after losing his cell phone in Tallahassee the night before—complete with frantic searches in freezing weather, hotel mishaps post-open-heart surgery, and a plea for prayers as he rebuilds his digital life packed with family photos, show prep, and Bible study notes. On the international front, Bunkley celebrates President Trump's high-profile Davos moves: a formal signing ceremony launching the new "Board of Peace," an international body (with ~20 initial signatories) to oversee Gaza's post-Hamas reconstruction, disarmament, and potential Mediterranean tourism development under U.S. leadership, bypassing what he calls a "worthless" United Nations; plus a breakthrough "framework of a future deal" on Greenland after Trump's aggressive tariff threats and negotiations with NATO's Mark Rutte, securing long-term U.S. access and military basing (possibly sovereign U.S. territory areas) for Arctic security against Russia and China—without full ownership but with "total access" and no force. Domestically, he warns of a crippling nationwide winter storm threatening 40+ states with heavy snow, damaging ice, power outages, and travel paralysis (with his wife at a major airline fielding chaos), while touching on Jack Smith's congressional hearings (where Republicans expose alleged overreach in the Mar-a-Lago raid), Florida's ongoing DeSantis-Speaker Perez feud impacting property tax reform, and a lively caller segment praising Trump's agenda. Interwoven with Christian encouragement, listener calls (including a passionate prayer from "Todd"), negotiation lessons from "The Art of the Deal," and a heartfelt interview with Trail Life USA CEO Mark Hancock promoting Christ-centered outdoor adventures for boys, this episode blends geopolitical triumphs, storm warnings, political theater, and personal vulnerability into a faith-and-life intersection that's quintessentially Bunkley.

On today's episode, host Bill dives into a packed lineup of Florida-centric developments and broader national/international stories shaping the headlines. Locally, the Tampa Bay Rays take a major step forward in their quest for a new ballpark, as Hillsborough College's Board of Trustees unanimously approves a non-binding memorandum of understanding to explore redeveloping the Dale Mabry campus into a mixed-use district featuring a state-of-the-art MLB stadium, new college facilities, hotels, retail, and entertainment spaces—potentially securing the team's long-term future in the Tampa Bay area after years of stadium saga twists. Meanwhile, Florida Attorney General James Uthmeier ramps up the heat on the recreational marijuana push, announcing 46 new criminal investigations and subpoenas targeting Smart & Safe Florida over alleged petition fraud involving thousands of questionable signatures, as the campaign races toward ballot qualification deadlines. Adding to the cannabis conversation, a bill to restrict smoking and vaping marijuana in public places—like parks, beaches, streets, and common areas of buildings—clears its first hurdle in the Senate Regulated Industries Committee, aiming to protect community health and quality of life amid ongoing legalization debates. On the cultural front, legislation advancing in both the Florida Senate and House seeks to strengthen prohibitions on gender-affirming care for minors by criminalizing "aiding and abetting" such services, expanding penalties for health care providers and empowering state investigations. Nationally and globally, President Trump takes center stage at the World Economic Forum in Davos, Switzerland, delivering a high-profile address touching on trade, alliances, and bold territorial claims like Greenland, while stirring discussions on U.S. priorities abroad. Bill wraps it all up with the latest local and world news updates you need to stay informed.

Fresh off a late-night thrill, Bill shares his thoughts on the electrifying College Football Playoff National Championship game at Hard Rock Stadium, where the undefeated No. 1 Indiana Hoosiers stunned No. 10 Miami Hurricanes 27-21 to claim their first-ever national title in program history—capping a perfect 16-0 season highlighted by Heisman winner Fernando Mendoza's powerful runs and post-game praise to God for the glory. Amid referee controversies and a close, hard-fought battle, the broadcast spotlights inspiring moments of public faith, from players kneeling in prayer to black crosses on chins and heartfelt testimonies crediting Jesus Christ. Closer to home, exciting Tampa Bay developments take center stage: the Tampa Bay Rays' advancing proposal for a new stadium and massive mixed-use complex (hotels, retail, residences) at Hillsborough Community College's Dale Mabry campus near Raymond James Stadium, backed by Governor DeSantis and poised for a potential 2029 opening; plus, the groundbreaking 2026 NHL Stadium Series outdoor game on February 1 at Ray Jay, with the Tampa Bay Lightning hosting the Boston Bruins in Florida's first such hockey showdown under a refrigerated tent.

Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu met with former U.S. President Donald Trump at Mar-A-Lago in a meeting that has drawn significant international attention. The sit-down comes during a tense period for global politics, particularly in the Middle East, where security concerns and diplomatic relationships remain under intense scrutiny. While official details from the meeting were limited, the appearance of the two leaders together underscores the longstanding political relationship between them and highlights Trump’s continued influence on global affairs. The meeting is being closely analyzed for its potential implications on future U.S.–Israel relations and broader geopolitical dynamics. Artificial intelligence is rapidly evolving, and experts say its impact will be even more pronounced by 2026. AI is expected to reshape industries such as healthcare, education, transportation, and business, while also influencing how people work, learn, and communicate.
