Broadcasting live from the heart of Florida's Capitol in Tallahassee, today's episode dives deep into the biggest stories shaping the Sunshine State and beyond. Host Bill spotlights former Tampa Mayor Bob Buckhorn, who is gearing up for a high-profile comeback bid to reclaim the mayor's office in 2027 after raising millions through his PAC and calling it the "worst-kept secret" in Tampa politics. We break down the bold Florida Legislature push to rename Palm Beach International Airport as "President Donald J. Trump International Airport," with bills advancing in the House and Senate amid debates over costs, trademarks, and symbolism. Plus, heated discussions on new legislation that would prohibit public employers and contractors from mandating preferred gender pronouns in the workplace, protecting employees' conscience-based objections while banning forced gender identity trainings. And in national news with Florida ties, Meta CEO Mark Zuckerberg takes the stand in a groundbreaking Los Angeles courtroom trial, facing allegations that Instagram and other platforms were deliberately designed to addict and harm children, exacerbating mental health crises like depression and suicidal thoughts. Packed with analysis, guest insights from Buckhorn himself, and much more on the day's top headlines—don't miss this can't-miss live edition!
