Saturday, March 21, 2026
Join Attorney Patrick Smith broadcasting live from Stetson University's 54th Annual Patrick L. Smith Model United States Senate! Kicking off with Whitney Houston-level chills on the national anthem, Patrick dives into the heart of this legendary three-day simulation where students from across the country become real U.S. Senators—pushing bills, whipping votes, debating amendments, and mastering Riddick's Rules like pros.
Hear from key players: Dr. David Hill on building careers through Model Senate, student coordinator Serena Dowling on crafting partisan debate gold, first-timer Isabella (as Sen. Joni Ernst) stirring the pot with discharges and deportations, Majority Leader Maddie the Surfer Girl with her NFL-playbook prep, Minority Whip Nate the Great (competitive bodybuilder edition), and alum Amy Trask on her groundbreaking Haven Act heading to the governor.
Plus pop quizzes, procedural chess talk, filibuster history (Strom Thurmond vibes), and why these kids might just out-Senate the real Washington. Legal questions? Call 1-800-771-1025!
