Buckle up for the fastest hour on radio—where Journey hits play, AI hallucinations turn last week's jet ski medevac drama into a Hollywood trailer, and your host, Attorney Patrick Smith, drops real talk on what you wish you knew before becoming an executor (thanks, Kylie: creditors, taxes, mortgages at ~6.3%, and why probate is basically a slow-motion nightmare).
This week: a fresh Florida Highway Safety text scam that screams "mandatory final notice" (spoiler: delete it faster than Isaiah grabs show prep five minutes before airtime), a listener challenge that hands out a free $695 trust package for the craziest/stump-the-lawyer question (Victor nearly triggered the gift tax with $75K into his 24-year-old's account—annual exclusion is still $19K, folks!), digital asset tips for your crypto empire, and why you should review your estate plan every three years (or sooner when life throws curveballs like name changes and new responsibilities).
Plus: Vern Hendricks dropping in fresh from retirement with his "About the Town" podcast (and his wife Elisa's legendary goodwill tours), and enough heart-and-soul legal advice to keep your family protected without the drama. Real stories. Real law. Real fun. (And zero co-hosts answering legal questions—they're not licensed, folks.)
Whether you're dodging probate, spotting scams, or just here for the banter and Gators shoutouts, call in at 800-771-1025. Heart and soul on the airwaves—tune in, call in, and stay safe (and off the midnight train to bad estate planning).
