The Attorney Patrick Smith Show

Attorney Patrick Smith saddles up for one of the most intense (and strangely entertaining) hours yet — diving deep into the laws of execution in Florida, complete with Toby Keith’s “Beer for My Horses” as the perfect outlaw soundtrack.

From lethal injection as the default method to the infamous “Old Sparky” electrocution era (and its very public malfunctions involving flames, bleeding, and synthetic sponges), Patrick and the full crew — Isaiah the Magnificent, Spike on the mic, and Maddie the Surfer Girl (dialing in from her Stetson dorm with the “Stetson plague”) — break down everything you need to know:

• Where executions happen (tiny Raiford, population 224 not counting inmates)
• How to (legally) become a witness
• Last-meal rules ($40 max, no fast food, no alcohol — sorry, Maddie)
• Florida’s record-setting execution pace

Plus: Lexi the Intern (Hall of Fame inductee) calls in with her jaw-dropping 126 MPRE score and wedding news; a follow-up on shopkeeper’s privilege (Target, Walmart, and Publix’s “premier customer service” approach); wild Surf’s Up stories including a Texas inmate who died of a shellfish allergy before his execution; the new Indian Rocks Beach smoking ban; and the usual Gators and Bucs predictions.

Real law. Real history. Real radio. Call 800-771-1025 with your questions and tune in next week for the 5th anniversary show. Heart and soul on the airwaves — stay safe, God bless, and Go Gators!

On this Labor Day weekend edition of The Attorney Patrick Smith Show, Attorney Patrick Smith returns to the host chair after Maddie the Surfer Girl’s highly rated guest-hosting episode and dives deep into the laws of citizens arrest in Florida.

Learn when a private citizen can legally detain someone (felonies with probable cause or misdemeanors that breach the peace witnessed in your presence), the serious risks of false imprisonment, and the important limitations — including the fact that you cannot pull someone over for a civil traffic violation. Patrick also covers Florida’s shopkeeper’s privilege for retail theft and examines real-world examples, from the Ahmaud Arbery case to viral sovereign-citizen attempts to “arrest” judges and officials.

Plus:

• Major update on Flock cameras: Governor DeSantis orders their removal from Florida state highways
• Estate-planning reminders about reviewing old documents and transparent pricing
• Surf’s Up with Maddie covering the Lindsay Clancy mistrial, a college athlete gambling scandal, and a Georgia judge who had an attorney arrested for being late
• Listener calls and the usual studio banter with Isaiah, Spike, and Maddie calling in from her dorm

Practical legal knowledge mixed with the show’s signature humor and real-world stories.

In a special birthday-gift episode of The Attorney Patrick Smith Show, Maddie the Surfer Girl takes the host chair for the entire show! Patrick is still in studio to handle legal questions, but Maddie runs the show from start to finish.

She kicks things off with a deep dive into the history of Stetson’s Model Senate (now officially the Patrick L. Smith Model United States Senate) — the oldest college-level Model U.S. Senate program in the country, founded in 1970, and the life-changing impact it has had on students (including Maddie herself).

Then she covers practical Florida back-to-school laws, including:

• The process for a 16-year-old to legally leave school
• Corporal punishment still allowed under certain school-board policies
• Parents’ right to request a different classroom teacher
• Strict school-bus stop laws, camera enforcement, and real caller stories about tickets

Plus plenty of fun studio banter (Gen Z slang lessons for Spike, homeschooling stories, Stetson ghost tales from Elizabeth Hall) and the usual listener calls.

A lively, educational, and thoroughly entertaining hour hosted by Maddie.

On this episode of The Attorney Patrick Smith Show, Attorney Patrick Smith breaks down the laws of social media — the private terms of service that govern what you can (and cannot) post on Facebook, Instagram, and TikTok.

Learn the legal foundation that allows platforms to set their own rules (Section 230, freedom of contract, and the Supreme Court’s Moody v. NetChoice decision), plus the specific community standards that can land you in “Facebook jail,” get your account banned, or trigger copyright takedowns.

Patrick also covers:

• The massive multi-state lawsuit against Meta over addictive design features aimed at kids
• TikTok’s federal divest-or-ban law and ongoing safety lawsuits
• Flock cameras (automated license plate readers): Are they legal? Can you block them with a “flock sock”? What about reflective spray on your license plate?
• Follow-up answer for last week’s caller: Can a convicted felon live in a house with someone who legally owns a firearm?

Plus estate-planning fee transparency ($75 wills / $695 trusts), fun side-quest banter, and listener calls.

Whether you want to stay out of online trouble or understand the growing surveillance tech around us, this episode delivers clear, practical legal insight.

On this episode of The Attorney Patrick Smith Show, Attorney Patrick Smith breaks down Florida’s felony vs. misdemeanor framework and then reveals a long list of surprise felonies — everyday or unusual acts that carry serious prison time and you probably never expected.

Learn why cow tipping, leaving a dog tied up during a storm (Trooper’s Law), failing to make public doors open outward, unauthorized alligator possession, destroying or hiding a will, the unauthorized practice of law, secret recordings, operating an aircraft under the influence, bookmaking, tree theft, counterfeit orange-juice labels, dueling, and more can all land you in state prison.

Patrick also flips the script with surprise misdemeanors — crimes many people assume are felonies but are actually only misdemeanors under Florida law (first-offense DUI, simple domestic battery, resisting without violence, small-scale theft, and simple marijuana possession).

Plus:

• Maddie’s after-show question answered: Is it illegal to drive with the interior lights on at night?
• Powerful caller stories, including a federal rehabilitation success story seeking a presidential pardon
• Estate planning reminders and the usual studio banter with Isaiah and Spike

Whether you want to stay out of trouble or just love quirky Florida law, this episode is packed with practical (and surprising) legal knowledge.

On this energetic episode of The Attorney Patrick Smith Show, host Patrick Smith kicks things off with Tom Petty’s “I Won’t Back Down” as the perfect Florida Gators football anthem, then dives into practical advice on making a will far less vulnerable to challenges. Key tips include hiring a licensed attorney (illustrated by real Florida cases like Aldrich v. Basile), planning alone to avoid undue-influence claims, acting early while capacity is clear, updating documents regularly, and never circulating copies to family. Listeners also hear lively crew banter about birthdays, a Clearwater Threshers first-pitch surprise, the legality of driving with hazard lights in heavy rain, the controversial rise of “shift bidding” in workplaces, and a rundown of Florida’s proposed Amendment 3 on property taxes. Multiple callers receive real-time guidance on trustee misconduct, will consultations, dental implants gone wrong, and old trusts, while Patrick promotes his $695 trust package and free consultations. The show closes with an archival clip from 2007 and a warm send-off urging everyone to “Go Gators.”

It’s a special pink-filled birthday edition of The Attorney Patrick Smith Show as the whole studio celebrates Maddie the Surfer Girl turning 21! The crew wears pink, Isaiah rocks a “Happy 21st” sticky note, and the show is packed with birthday wishes, legal insights, and one big surprise.

Patrick breaks down everything that unlocks at age 21 in Florida — alcohol, clubs, tobacco, casinos, and car rentals — then dives into Florida surfing ordinances (leash laws, designated areas, beach flags) and the Olympic Charter rules that govern athletes like former Junior Olympian Maddie.

Plus:

• Surf’s Up with Maddie covering the Washington state NextGen bar exam tech disaster, the Nancy Guthrie kidnapping update, and a wild Waffle House toilet-seat lawsuit
• Caller questions on lottery winnings & trusts, handwritten wills, and researching judicial candidates
• An open invitation for last week’s anonymous sovereign citizen to discuss Moorish law
• The big birthday reveal: Maddie will host the entire show on August 29th!

On this episode of The Attorney Patrick Smith Show, special guest Dean Benjamin Barros of Stetson Law School joins Patrick for a deep dive into his proposed “Amendment on Amendments” — a thoughtful reform of Article V designed to make the U.S. Constitution slightly easier to propose and clarify the amendment process, striking a better balance between stability and democratic adaptability.

Patrick also reveals the Top 10 places people turn for legal advice from non-attorneys (friends & family, Google, social media, AI, Reddit, court clerks, police officers, financial pros, real estate agents, and TV/movies) — and why most of them can land you in trouble.

Plus:

• Follow-ups on last week’s spite fence doctrine and censorship discussions (including emoji regulation and Maddie’s take on “It’s a Small World” as the ultimate neighbor-annoying song)
• Listener calls on constitutional changes, term limits, and more
• Estate planning tips, including the popular “Mama & Papa Bear” packages for college-bound adult children
• Studio fun with Isaiah, Spike, and clips from Maddie the Surfer Girl

Whether you’re a constitutional law nerd or just want practical legal guidance, this episode delivers insight, humor, and real-world takeaways.

On this episode of The Attorney Patrick Smith Show, Attorney Patrick Smith tackles the timeless problem of bad neighbors under Florida law. Learn practical steps for handling noise complaints, property code violations, hoarding, and more — from documenting incidents and reporting to code enforcement or police, to HOA fines, landlord notices, and filing private nuisance lawsuits.

Intern Michaela delivers a standout segment on Florida’s spite fence doctrine and whether a 12-foot bronze middle finger sculpture counts as protected art or a private nuisance. The crew debates free speech, art, and community standards, with examples from a Michigan neighbor dispute and high-profile celebrity feuds (Bill Gross, Justin Theroux, Jim Belushi, William H. Macy, and more).

Plus:

• Follow-up on last week’s censorship show with YouTube’s wild “un-alive,” “grape,” and “corn” euphemisms.
• Caller discussion on coarsening society and FCC rules.
• The infamous Hatfields & McCoys feud as the ultimate bad neighbor story.
• Estate planning reminders, new intern Michaela, and studio laughs with Isaiah and Spike.

Whether your neighbor blasts music, builds a spite fence, or worse — this episode gives you real legal tools (and a few laughs) to protect your peace.

Attorney Patrick Smith threads the needle on this episode of The Attorney Patrick Smith Show, exploring the razor’s edge of First Amendment rights, FCC regulations, and broadcast censorship.

Break down the key distinctions between profanity, indecency, and obscenity (including the Miller Test), major Supreme Court cases like Red Lion Broadcasting, FCC v. Pacifica (George Carlin’s “Filthy Words”), and how the FCC protects children during “safe harbor” hours (6 AM–10 PM) while balancing public airwaves scarcity.

Patrick demonstrates how unnecessary bleeping and silencing of perfectly clean words (like in popular songs) ironically plants obscene thoughts in listeners’ minds — proving censorship can be ineffective or even counterproductive. Plus:

• Recent Supreme Court rulings on birthright citizenship, women’s sports, political spending, and more.
• Florida probate law update: Summary administration threshold doubled to $150,000.
• Homestead exemption discussion (what if Monticello was in Florida?).
• Heartfelt Bonnie Tyler tribute, MLB draft talk, and plenty of studio laughs with Isaiah and Spike.

A must-listen for anyone interested in free speech, media law, estate planning, or how the rules of radio have (and haven’t) changed with shifting community standards.

On this special, Patrick celebrates the nation with patriotic greetings, shares his safe fireworks viewing from home, and thanks fill-in co-hosts. The show highlights the bravery of the Founding Fathers by detailing the British laws they broke to create the U.S.—most notably high treason (punishable by the gruesome hanged-drawn-and-quartered execution), plus smuggling, tax evasion, the Boston Tea Party property destruction, and even scrapping the Articles of Confederation to ratify the Constitution with only 9 of 13 states. Smith underscores their youth, risks, and “win at all costs” spirit, while touching on their estate planning. A caller discusses mineral rights and receives advice on trusts to avoid probate (with the $695 package promoted). The episode covers Founding Fathers’ wills, a lively rundown of presidential scandals (“fireworks”) from Clinton-Lewinsky to Watergate, Grant’s speeding ticket, and more, then ends with a trust package giveaway won by a caller guessing The Patriot, fireworks safety tips, and a heartfelt “God bless the USA.”

On this episode of The Attorney Patrick Smith Show, host Attorney Patrick Smith delivers a deep dive into Florida’s stalking laws (Florida Statute 784.048), including cyberstalking, harassment, credible threats, and penalties ranging from misdemeanors to felonies. Learn how victims can seek protective injunctions and the critical Supreme Court ruling in Counterman v. Colorado that added a subjective “recklessness” standard to protect First Amendment rights while still addressing true threats.

Patrick also explores voyeurism (peeping Tom laws) under Florida Statutes 810.14 and 810.145, video voyeurism, and the state’s strict all-party consent rules for audio recordings (934.03). High-profile cases include the stalking murders of Rebecca Schaeffer and John Lennon, plus incidents involving Madonna, Taylor Swift, and Sandra Bullock.

Plus:

• Legal Movie Review: “How to Make a Killing” starring Glenn Powell — a dark comedy about inheritance, murder, and family dysfunction (solid 8.5/10 rating).
• Studio fun with Isaiah, Spike on the Mic, and special guest Brown (Spike’s daughter and law student).
• Listener call on trust/tax issues and a heartwarming email from Patrick’s high school teacher.

Whether you’re concerned about online harassment, privacy violations, or just love sharp legal analysis with humor, this episode delivers actionable insights and real-world stories.

Join Attorney Patrick Smith on this lively Father's Day weekend episode of The Attorney Patrick Smith Show! In a full-house studio with Isaiah the Magnificent, Spike on the Mic, and Maddie the Surfer Girl, Patrick breaks down one of the most overlooked — and dangerous — decisions in estate planning: doing nothing.

Discover Florida's intestacy laws (Florida Statute 732) and exactly how your assets get distributed if you die without a will or trust. Learn why this can lead to family fights, estranged relatives inheriting, half-blood siblings complications, and even your estate going to the state. Patrick shares real-world horror stories and famous cases including:

• Prince’s $150M+ estate battle (plus his new posthumous album)
• Howard Hughes’ 34-year chaos with 40 forged wills
• Pablo Picasso, Aretha Franklin, Bob Marley, and even Abraham Lincoln

Plus, a clear breakdown of arbitration vs. mediation in Florida, practical tips on wills vs. trusts ("a fancy will that skips court"), and why planning now prevents guardianship disasters and massive legal fees.

Maddie delivers Surf’s Up with the latest legal news: the IVF embryo mix-up custody case, a massive fake nursing diploma scheme, the Luigi Mangione case update, and a Ryan Reynolds-linked Tesla lawsuit. Listeners call in with questions on copyright scams, pour-over wills, and more.

Whether you're a parent, business owner, or just want peace of mind, this episode shows why “doing nothing” is rarely the cheap or easy option.

From the heart of the College World Series in Omaha, Nebraska, Attorney Patrick Smith delivers another fast-paced hour of real law and real fun. Joined by local attorney Greg Hauer, this episode dives deep into Nebraska estate planning — comparing it to Florida’s complex world of probate, trusts, homestead protections, and why a simple transfer-on-death deed might be a “band-aid” while a full trust offers the real protection.

Plus, the latest on Florida’s potential homestead property tax changes and why reviewing your estate plan every three years (or sooner) is non-negotiable.

Whether you’re snowbirding between states or just love wild legal stories, this episode proves one thing: plan ahead, or your estate might fund daily rose deliveries for decades.

Call 800-771-1025 with your legal questions and tune in next week. Heart and soul on the airwaves — stay safe, God bless, and Go Gators!

Attorney Patrick Smith kicks off with a heartfelt D-Day tribute (June 6, 1944) and the Andrews Sisters’ classic “Boogie Woogie Bugle Boy,” honoring the Greatest Generation before diving into the wildest estate administrations you’ll ever hear.

From a millionaire leaving millions for 150 stray dogs, to a Portuguese aristocrat picking heirs from the phone book, a womanless library (yes, really), ashes buried in a Pringles can, and a philosopher who wanted to be stuffed and displayed at meetings — these eccentric wills prove truth is stranger than fiction. Patrick unpacks why some succeed and others get struck down, with plenty of “you can’t make this up” moments.

Plus: Lexi the Intern’s triumphant return and induction as the first-ever Attorney Patrick Smith Show Hall of Fame member, a fresh scam alert on fake “your family member is arrested” calls, Maddie the Surfer Girl crushing the after-show, progress on the Florida Homestead Law Review article, and a major legislative update — the proposed constitutional amendment to dramatically expand (or eliminate) homestead property taxes heads to voters in November.

Patrick fields reverse mortgage questions while reminding everyone: plan ahead, or your estate might fund a daily rose delivery for decades (Jack Benny style).

Real stories. Real law. Real chaos. Heart and soul on the airwaves — tune in, call 800-771-1025, and stay safe. God bless, and Go Gators!

In this episode of the Attorney Patrick Smith Show, Attorney Patrick Smith dives deep into the complicated world of prenuptial and postnuptial agreements in Florida — what makes them enforceable, what can invalidate them, and why more couples than ever are using them to protect family assets, inheritances, and financial futures. Patrick breaks down real Florida law, key legal requirements, famous celebrity prenup disasters, and landmark cases like Casto v. Casto that continue shaping family law today.

The show also explores real-world divorce and property disputes during live listener calls, including questions about mortgages, marital settlement agreements, and property rights after divorce. Patrick explains how courts evaluate fairness, disclosure, coercion, and financial transparency when determining whether a prenup or postnup will stand up in court.

Later in the episode, Patrick is joined by Florida State Senator Jonathan Martin for an in-depth conversation about Governor Ron DeSantis’ proposed plan to eliminate Florida homestead property taxes. They discuss the constitutional implications, how the proposal could affect homeowners across Florida, and why the issue may become one of the most important ballot initiatives in state history.

Plus, the show wraps up with a look at current Major League Baseball litigation involving the Chicago Cubs and Wrigley Field rooftop owners, highlighting the fascinating intersection of sports, intellectual property, and business law.

Whether you’re planning a marriage, protecting your assets, navigating divorce, or simply interested in Florida law and policy, this episode delivers practical legal insight with humor, personality, and real-world examples.

Buckle up for the fastest, funniest legal hour on radio as Attorney Patrick Smith takes on the wild world of Sovereign Citizens and Squatters — two groups united by their firm belief that rules are optional.

From a Clearwater traffic stop where Sergeant Curtis shows saint-level patience asking for a license seven times while the driver insists he’s “traveling” (not driving), to a courtroom meltdown with Magistrate Ward Harshbarger counting to three like an exhausted parent before contempt cuffs come out — these interactions are pure radio gold. Patrick breaks down why these pseudo-legal tactics never work, from fake tags and “American National” claims to unauthorized practice of law (a third-degree felony, folks — Google Law degrees come with risks).

Then we pivot to squatters: the A&E series Squatters featuring Flash Shelton (great name) and his creative eviction methods, including reptile therapy to encourage an uncooperative occupant to leave. Florida law strongly favors owners — seven years of continuous occupation + paying taxes for adverse possession? Good luck with that.

Plus: Maddie the Surfer Girl’s killer after-show, Patrick’s Walmart flash drive rescue mission (thanks Bob & EZE!), 23 years of marriage wisdom, progress on the Florida Homestead Law Review article, and Gators baseball predictions (10-7 over Georgia, naturally).

Real law. Real chaos. Real laughs. If you’ve ever wanted to know how not to handle a traffic stop or protect your property from unwanted guests, this episode delivers.

Call 800-771-1025 with your sovereign stories or squatter nightmares. Heart and soul on the airwaves — stay safe, God bless, and Go Gators!

It’s a full-crew Saturday on the Attorney Patrick Smith Show — and yes, we had to restart the intro because “Love Is on the Line” showed up instead of “Hold On to What You Got.” Classic live radio chaos, but we stuck the landing like pros (Spike’s brave attempt at hitting the post is comedy gold).

Attorney Patrick Smith dives deep into trust funding — the make-or-break step that turns your revocable trust from expensive paper into actual protection. Learn which assets go in (bank accounts, homesteads, rentals, LLCs), which stay out (IRAs, life insurance, 401ks — with wild exceptions for minors and special needs), why POD/TOD designations aren’t enough, and the sacred homestead rules that can derail everything if you’re not careful. Maddie the Surfer Girl (fresh off her Religious Studies/Political Science award) nails the spousal joinder question like the TA she is.

Then we crack open the vault for a fan-favorite Sovereign Citizen remix set to “Walking on Sunshine” (complete with tasing, “I don’t talk to cops with glasses,” and pure radio gold). We tease next week’s epic episode on Sovereign Citizens + Squatters, take a real call from “not a sovereign citizen” Tom, and debate whether these folks have monthly meetings and cool flags.

Maddie the Surfer Girl delivers another Surf’s Up segment with headline-worthy legal drama: Dua Lipa suing Samsung for $15M over unauthorized image use, Miami cops suing Matt Damon & Ben Affleck, Taylor Swift fighting a “showgirl” trademark claim, and a family suing OpenAI after the FSU shooting. Plus, we roast Disney’s weirdest rules (no adult costumes, no real Snow White claims, balloon bans at Animal Kingdom) and celebrate Maddie’s huge announcement — she’s launching the official post-show recap! The Attorney Patrick Smith Show will never be the same.

Fishing triumphs, Gators predictions, ABBA-loving Maddie, and zero hesitation on funding that trust before it’s too late. Real stories, real law, real fun — with a side of sovereign citizen entertainment.

Happy Mother’s Day! Attorney Patrick Smith fires up the Mother’s Day edition with Extreme’s “Mutha,” hot sauce tasting (Rick Daddy’s Small Batch Smokey Hot — flavor 7, heat 4, guaranteed sinus clearance), and plenty of heartfelt wishes to all the moms tuning in.

This week we break down everything you need to know about Small Claims Court in Florida (the $8,000 people’s court special, where you can be your own lawyer, serve papers like in the movies, and maybe mediate before trial). Caller Walt delivers the ultimate story: a charity hockey “tussle” ends with a steroid-fueled firefighter headbutt, a broken nose, $5k in damages, dropped criminal charges, and now a small claims mission. Patrick’s advice? File in the right county and consider switching to checkers.

Plus: Traditional vs. Roth 401(k) smackdown (Isaiah the Magnificent drops Dave Ramsey wisdom), how to restore your maiden name post-divorce (easier than a full name change — no fingerprints needed), estate planning name update tips, and a lively debate on the greatest TV moms of all time (Carol Brady, Claire Huxtable, Sophia Petrillo, Aunt B, and June Cleaver all get love).

We also celebrate the show’s upcoming 5th anniversary, shout out the incredible blind board op Hal (aka the Daredevil of Sun City Center), tease Maddie the Surfer Girl’s big announcement next week, and remind everyone why you should sign up for those free estate plan reviews every three years.

Real heart, real law, real laughs — and zero hesitation on finishing that second bowl of nuclear chili. Tune in for the fastest, smartest, funniest legal hour on radio. Call 800-771-1025 with your small claims war stories, favorite TV mom, or legal questions.

Grab your margaritas (responsibly) and join Attorney Patrick Smith for a Cinco de Mayo-fueled ride on the fastest hour on radio. We kick things off with the real story behind May 5th (not Mexican Independence Day—it's the underdog victory at Puebla in 1862), rain-proof party plans with a food truck and tent, and Spike sending the show off the rails before it even starts with "Deed Frotten."

This episode dives deep into deed fraud (yes, people coming home from grocery shopping to find strangers living in their paid-off house—Brooklyn horror stories meet Florida prevention tips: sign up for those free 67-county property alerts that notify you in 24 hours!). We break down timeshares like a bad vacation regret—Florida's 10-day cooling-off period (written notice, certified mail, no take-backs on the salesperson pitch), deed-backs with full release, and why you probably shouldn't leave one to your kids.

Plus: Nine shiny new Florida laws from Governor DeSantis (church security volunteers, porch pirate penalties, organized retail theft crackdowns, boating safety, and more), trust administration 101 (who gets invited to the "reading," step-up in basis magic for taxes, and why inheritances aren't income), gun rights restoration after old felonies, rental property succession planning, Medicaid nimble trusts for nursing home worries, and a heartfelt note heading into Mother's Day.

We're #1 in talk and climbing the Tampa Bay ranks (goal: pass the Dove!), bringing back the legendary "Oh Hi There" update videos in the original pink polo (fan club drama included—Instagram shadowban story is chef's kiss), and taking your calls with wisdom, wit, and zero judgment. Real stories. Real law. Real fun. (And Easy-E filling in magnificently for Isaiah.)

Tune in, call 800-771-1025 with your deed theft, timeshare horror, or stump-the-lawyer tales, and protect what you've built. Heart and soul on the airwaves—stay safe, God bless, and Go Gators!
