**The Great Chicken Heist** Memphis. Jackson's sister city. Thirteen people caught behind a hotel on Lamar unloading pallets of chicken off an 18-wheeler. Quarter-million dollars of bird. Three guns on the scene. Felons in the mix. They tried to run. Task force bagged the whole crew. Clay and Creston did what this show does: mock it till it cries. That's a lot of chicken. Wings are already expensive. Thighs are through the roof. Somebody in that group thought a full reefer trailer was the ultimate caper and not one person said, “Bad idea.” Where were they going to keep it cold? Who was buying it out the back door? Clay's honest about it — stolen chicken for a restaurant is a health-code nightmare. Stolen chicken for a backyard barbecue is a different conversation. Stereotypes didn't walk onto that lot. Thirteen people did. The mugshots went on the screen. The jokes wrote themselves. Mock them till they cry, then make memes when they do. That's the Great Chicken Heist.

**The Clay Edwards Show – Sept. 17, 2026** Sports, culture, and Mississippi reality in the same hour. LSU rolls into Oxford this weekend and suddenly they're Ole Miss's biggest rival until Egg Bowl. Lane Kiffin's swagger vs. Coach Golden, fair-weather fans chasing the winner, and why Amazon data centers and NCAA baseball regionals had more to do with the state flag coming down than any football player taking a knee. Longtime caller Derek hits the line: Ole Miss homecoming queen controversy, the Confederate flag on campus, Cross Colors double standards, and the “no snitching” crowd that suddenly wants everybody talking about Horn Island and Nolan Wells. A Change.org petition wants the Ross Barnett Reservoir renamed for “inclusivity.” 39 signatures. Clay and Creston walk through James Meredith, old legislation pushing Fannie Lou Hamer or B.B. King, and the recent Judy Barnett headlines that brought the name back up. Condolences to Hinds County Chancellor Dwayne Thomas, who passed after a heart attack. Fair judge. Good reputation. Then the internet did internet things: Arch Manning laughs at an AI meme of Steve Sarkisian slapping Holly Rowe after the Texas-Ohio State game. ABC World News Tonight treats it like a national crisis. Manning apologizes. Clay and Creston refuse to pretend a joke video is domestic violence. Mississippi DPS is rolling out the largest security presence ever for a college game in Oxford. Troopers, air ops, Louisiana units traveling with LSU, rumors Trump could show. Taxpayers footing the bill while people argue Louisiana should pay for their own coach. No lectures. No “positive solutions” from the same crowd that's been running things. Just the show.

**Lane Kiffin's Security Detail** LSU is in Oxford. Lane Kiffin is walking back into the Grove as the opposing coach, and Mississippi is treating it like a state visit. Largest Department of Public Safety footprint ever for a college game. Sixty-five to seventy troopers. CTED units. Tactical teams. Air ops. Mobile command. Traffic enforcement already rolling through Sunday. Oxford PD, University Police, Lafayette County, plus 10 to 15 Louisiana troopers traveling with the Tigers and LSU's own protective unit. Comments lit up: why are Mississippi taxpayers babysitting Louisiana's coach? Creston's answer was simple. You take care of everybody on your turf. Next year Ole Miss goes to Baton Rouge and will want the same courtesy. They're talking 400 to 500 thousand people in a town that usually sees a hundred thousand on a home Saturday. Trump rumors on top of it. If you weren't out of Oxford yesterday, you're there now. Hate Week with a command post. That's the security package for Lane.

**Clay Edwards Show – Episode 1293**   9/11, twenty-five years later. First responders still dying. A hanging in Jackson that the usual suspects tried to turn into a lynching. And a Massachusetts jury that couldn't bring itself to call a child killer a child killer. Clay, Creston Berch (30-year Clinton PD, retired), and Shaun Yurtkuran sit with the anniversary that never really ended. Creston was standing in a car dealership lobby when the second plane hit live on TV. Shaun had just gotten out of the Marines and spent the day in a Jefferson Street apartment watching Fox News with eight friends until midnight. Clay woke up to the second impact, then watched 99 Jams keep spinning hip-hop while every other station in the market flipped to the news. That moment, he says, is when the culture war started for him. They talk about the 9–10,000 additional deaths from the pile, Flight 93 and the two unarmed fighter pilots who were prepared to ram it, Bush on the rubble, and what the day would have looked like if everyone in those towers had a smartphone and a live stream. They also cover the first big public gathering after the attacks: WWE SmackDown in Houston, paid for by Mattress Mack so the city wouldn't eat the overtime. Then they pivot to two local/national cases that keep revealing the same double standard. Tazia Fortune was found hanging behind an abandoned house on Road of Remembrance. The lynching narrative got national oxygen. Clay broke that the state crime lab and DPS have now turned the completed autopsy over to JPD and the Hinds County coroner. Cause of death is not expected to match the story that's been sold. JPD and some local media spent weeks blaming the state for the delay. The state's response: we finished it; y'all asked for every extra test. Lindsey Clancy: the holdout juror who refused not-guilty-by-reason-of-insanity was a Black man. The women on the jury are publicly furious he wouldn't go along. Gayle King had to sit down when she heard it. An Oprah panel then cheered a doctor arguing that Black women who kill their children deserve the same “energy” Clancy got. Clay, Shaun, and Creston don't buy the postpartum-plus-meds-plus-doctor excuse as a get-out-of-prison-free card. No station IDs. No sponsor reads. Just the conversation.

**The Clay Edwards Show – Episode 1,292**   with Creston Berch Fred Hampton Gun Club is rolling into Jackson this weekend talking “justice for hangings and lynchings.” They're calling it a state of emergency. They're posting about cave beasts, peckerwoods, burning the racist state to the ground, and “coming to a white neighborhood near you.” Operation FAFO. Gear up. Wear all black. Email for the secret location. Clay and Creston unpack the screenshots, the out-of-town organizers from Maryland, the double standard nobody wants to say out loud, and what would happen if the roles were reversed and a bunch of guys who look like Clay posted the exact same thing. Also: Jackson Police Chief finally speaks on the Tacey Fortune case after weeks of silence. Autopsy wrapped four weeks ago. “A lot of misinformation out there.” She hesitates to call these serial incidents. Meanwhile an uninvited activist from Arkansas storms city council talking lynchings and name-drops every hanging death she can find. Plus the usual: black-on-black numbers versus the lynching fantasy, Stockholm-syndrome race relations, and why some folks need a white devil so badly they'll invent one. FAFO shirts still $10 at buyfafo.com while they last. Subscribe, share, and don't be the last one to hear it.

**Episode 1290 – Clay Edwards Show**   Guests: Creston Birch (retired 30-year Clinton PD) and Zach Service Labor Day hangover, an Ole Miss game that even a State fan had to respect, and two guys in studio who actually live in the Jackson metro instead of commenting on it from a distance. Clay, Creston, and Zach stay on the local stuff: homeschool vs. the “good kid from a good family who still gets sucked into culture rot,” code-switching, school choice, and why one bad apple in the wrong hallway still poisons the bunch. Then they pivot to Southern Miss coach Blake Anderson walking out in a “Christ is King” shirt and the internet acting like he'd committed a hate crime. They play his postgame comments, talk recruiting, hypocrisy, and why the same people who demanded every other slogan on a jersey suddenly clutch pearls when it's this one. They cover the viral Ole Miss sideline girl, the death of communal TV (Game of Thrones was basically the last one), Deputy Tarian Bailey getting killed in Claiborne County while trying to clear a crowd, Jackson's weekend body count, heat + idle time + three-day weekends, and why local media still treats certain stories like they don't exist. Zach talks about his campaign coverage, the First Amendment lawsuit, and why sitting across the table from someone you've been told is the devil is still better than hiding in an echo chamber. Racism vs. prejudice vs. pattern recognition. Marketplace of ideas. Why ostracizing people just radicalizes them. And why “Christ is King” on a coach's chest is not the thing that's actually killing people this week. No ads. No station ID. Just the conversation.

**Shaun Yurtkuran and Creston Birch on the death penalty and DNA** Attorney Shaun Yurtkuran has put a man on death row. Thirteen years later he still thinks about it — not because he has a moral problem with “you kill, you get killed” when the proof is ironclad, but because of how the system actually works. It does not deter the people on the street. They know what the cops do. They do not know what the courthouse does. It is expensive. And Mississippi has already put innocent men on the row. Shaun walks through Kennedy Brewer and Levon Brooks — two Noxubee County child-murder cases from the early '90s. One man sat on death row. DNA and a later confession freed both. The real killer was identified almost twenty years later. That is the part that scares him: human error before the science caught up. Creston Birch, thirty years in law enforcement, started in 1993 when DNA was barely a tool. He has watched it go from infancy to the thing that actually closes cases. He also knows what jurors think they are going to see. The CSI effect is real. In a hundred homicide cases you almost never have the gun. Fingerprints are rare. Shaun has one footprint match in his entire career — a kicked-in door at Trent Lott's house in Hinds County. Most of the time you still win with witnesses and the defendant's own mouth. They talk Baton Rouge in the '90s: three separate serial killers, a Millsaps student among the victims, suspects released because the lab could not yet do what it can do now. DNA would have stopped some of those murders. It still does not replace old-fashioned police work. It just makes the work honest. No moral grandstanding. No “just lock them up for life” slogans. Two men who have lived on opposite sides of the same cases explaining why the needle is easy to support in theory and hard to trust in practice.

Kids are back to school, but for Iowa's public schools, things have gotten more challenging. Public school funding hasn't kept pace with inflation, and many districts are losing students and the funds that come with them. On this episode, we check in with school districts around the state — Des Moines, Creston, Cedar Rapids and Sumner-Fredericksburg. We discuss how these school districts have been navigating the strained budget and their plans moving forward.

**The Clay Edwards Show – Episode 1285**   with Creston Berch and Andrew Gasser Clay, Creston, and Andrew cover a packed weekend and the stories that actually matter. Jason Aldean packed Brandon with a sold-out, no-drama night that included “Try That in a Small Town.” College football's Week 0 delivered the usual early-season weirdness: Dan Mullen's UNLV squad lost at home to Memphis and the coach blamed the crowd for being too loud on offense; USC's big stadium looked half-empty against San Jose State, sparking talk about whether some programs should take non-conference games to smaller venues that actually look full on TV. NASCAR delivered a strong Daytona race. Combat sports went full circus—BKFC in Fenway Park plus a chaotic Orlando card that featured Mike Perry's shoulder injury on short notice, internet personalities, and one of the strangest post-main events you'll ever see. The biggest story of the hour: a Nigerian national was extradited to Mississippi and arraigned in Oxford on charges tied to the 2022 online sextortion of 16-year-old Starkville Academy football player Walker Montgomery, who died by suicide. The suspect had been in Nigerian custody since a 2023 FBI-led operation (Artemis) that netted more than 20 suspects linked to a wave of financially motivated schemes against American teenage boys. Charges include sexual exploitation of a minor resulting in death. The Montgomery family has spent years pushing internet-safety legislation through Walker's Promise. Clay and Creston give law enforcement and the feds their roses for finally getting the case into a U.S. courtroom after three years of extradition fights. Hour two turns to companies voting with their feet. Buc-ee's CEO said life is too short to build in places that don't want you and that conservative, business-friendly states with a real workforce make the difference—prompting Democrat boycott noise and a quick “welcome” from Ron DeSantis. That conversation rolls into SpaceX's massive Louisiana plans, Starship cadence, Starlink evolution, talk of orbital data centers, Neuralink, Optimus, and whether medical advances like stem-cell therapies and brain-computer interfaces can stay on the right side of “playing God.” They close with an observation that's been eating at Clay: AI has made everyone a graphic designer overnight, but the internet now looks the same. Flyers, thumbnails, and scripts are starting to feel interchangeable. The theory on the table is that audiences will start craving the opposite—plain, human, imperfect, and obviously not generated. Real talk, real topics, no filter.

**Texas Roadhouse Hoax Meltdown, Jelly Roll Flips on Trump, and Week 0 Football** Stormy, wet roads in Central Mississippi. Clay and Creston open with a reminder to pray for cops, tow truck drivers, firefighters, and paramedics working wrecks. Creston shares a story from his law enforcement days: two patrol cars getting slammed while they were already working a wreck on I-20 coming into Clinton after water pooled at the bottom of the hill near Norwell Road. Then the internet's latest racial hoax. A post claimed a secret Facebook group of 400,000 Texas Roadhouse and Logan's Roadhouse employees has been targeting Black customers' food since George Floyd — spitting in it, not washing hands, using a “blind spot” in the kitchen. Clay calls complete shenanigans. The employee numbers don't add up. Texas Roadhouse employs around 101,000 people total. Logan's is a fraction of that. Videos of people losing their minds over the rumor get played, including one woman having an allergic reaction she now “knows” was the food, and an uncensored rant leaping from honey butter biscuits to lynching in broad daylight and only supporting Black-owned restaurants. Clay draws a hard line: when he says “culture,” he is not talking about every Black person. He is talking about the loud, no-tipping, send-it-back-after-eating-half, waste-food-at-the-buffet, entitlement crowd that restaurant workers of every race dread. Same people who ruined free birthday dinners at places like Berry's. Context matters. Most kitchen staff at these restaurants are Black. The rumor was rage bait that a lot of accounts ran with anyway. Jelly Roll goes on Jimmy Kimmel and doubles down on the Trump shots, thanks Rosie O'Donnell, and acts like nobody should be surprised a guy named after a pastry has opinions. Clay isn't buying the “I don't treat myself with reverence so why should I treat the president that way” routine from someone who spent years selling a redemption story and staying out of politics. Double-stuffed Jelly. Sports wrap: Week 0 college football (UNC-TCU, FSU, Memphis-UNLV and the rest), high school kickoff including Madison Central at Pearl, Daytona Saturday night, AEW All In, the Pro Bowl finally being put out of its misery, and a history lesson on the old College All-Stars vs. NFL exhibition games.

**Episode 1277 of The Clay Edwards Show with co-host Creston Berch** Clay and Creston dig into the culture's obsession with the “great Nolan Wells lie” on what would have been Nolan's 19th birthday. They unpack the latest rumors, AI-generated content from creators like Kelvin Barnett who keep dragging names (including Bart Edmondson Jr.) back into the narrative, the district attorney's wall of silence around the grand jury process, the phone controversy, and why the prolonged uncertainty continues putting young men and their families at risk.   The conversation also covers culture rot in online comments—the quick pivot to threats, violence, and vulgarity—the fatigue it creates, free speech realities in the Culture Rot group, and why certain patterns keep repeating. Clay shares thoughts sparked by the Sean Ryan podcast with Dr. Craig Coniver on moving away from one-size-fits-all medicine toward personalized care, testosterone, and peak performance.   A free-for-all episode heavy on the Nolan Wells case, accountability, and calling out the nonsense.

**Episode 1275 – Clay Edwards Show** Clay celebrates his 49th birthday with a packed three-hour conversation featuring returning guest Zach Service (former Jackson mayoral candidate and community activist), Creston Birch (recently retired 30-year Clinton Police officer), and Andrew Gasser. **Hours 1 & 2 with Zach Service and Creston Birch** Zach details his newly filed First Amendment lawsuit against the City of Jackson. He was escorted out of a city council meeting while wearing a campaign T-shirt after absentee polls had closed, then later interrupted and restricted during public comment for criticizing a city employee. The discussion covers selective enforcement of rules, viewpoint discrimination, and relevant case law including *New York Times Co. v. Sullivan*. Creston weighs in from a law-enforcement perspective on medical marijuana, DUI enforcement, probable cause, and the realities of impaired driving. The conversation expands into broader accountability issues in Jackson, including the stalled BioCrete/Metro Center workforce project, nonprofit and government friction, and the challenge of getting meaningful development done. A major focus is the proposed data-center hub at Lake Hico (16th-section land). Zach and Clay examine the politics surrounding the site, private equity interests, the contrast with opposition to the nearby Forest Avenue proposal, infrastructure realities, and whether Jackson risks missing a rare large-scale economic opportunity while neighboring communities capture the benefits. **Hour 3 with Andrew Gasser** Clay and Andrew dig deeper into data centers—heat output, water use, cooling systems, long-term obsolescence risks, and the possibility of orbital alternatives. They discuss local impacts (including the Brandon project near Highway 18), community concerns, and the broader trade-offs between tax revenue, jobs, environmental effects, and quality of life. The hour also covers fresh developments in the Nolan Wells case, including the NAACP joining the legal team and the family's readiness for a joint forensic phone inspection, plus related questions about transparency and the investigation. Raw, wide-ranging talk on free speech, local government accountability, economic development, and the future of Jackson.

Clay is joined by Zach Service (former Jackson mayoral candidate) and Creston Birch (recently retired 30-year Clinton Police officer). Zach recounts the events that led to his First Amendment lawsuit against the City of Jackson after being escorted from a council meeting for wearing a campaign T-shirt and later restricted during public comment. Creston shares a law-enforcement perspective on medical marijuana, DUI enforcement, and probable cause. The conversation also touches on selective enforcement, free speech standards, and early discussion of development challenges in Jackson.

**Clay Edwards Show – Episode 1,273 with Creston Burch** Clay opens by addressing a viral claim that his “brother” was involved in a Rankin County home invasion and standoff. He sets the record straight: he has no brother (half, step, or otherwise), calls out the usual online crew for running with the false story, and notes the irony of people eager to talk about someone else's family when their own records tell a different tale. The conversation shifts into a music-heavy stretch marking two milestones. Clay looks back 25 years to the Crazy 8 college nights and the old flyers that packed the place, then marks the 15th anniversary of Warrant frontman Jani Lane's death. He shares personal memories of seeing Warrant open for Motley Crue, the Blood, Sweat & Beers tour at the Coliseum, and promoting them years later. That sparks a rundown of hair-metal history—how labels manufactured some of the late-era bands, the rise of copycat acts, Autograph's unlikely shot opening for Van Halen after a jogging-buddy connection with David Lee Roth, Skid Row's success during the Nirvana wave, Tesla, and more. From there the show turns to the WNBA. Clay and Creston dig into the Sophie Cunningham incident, the Indiana Fever coach's postgame comments, and the broader pattern of on-court physicality and off-court rhetoric. Clay questions the high rate of openly lesbian and “stud” identities in women's basketball and softball compared with other sports, asks what is happening inside those locker rooms and programs, and ties it to larger cultural pressure around transgender athletes in women's sports and the refusal to define basic terms. The episode also covers the appointment of a Muslim municipal judge in Mississippi. Clay discusses the strong public reaction (including from people who usually stay quiet), questions how and why the selection happened, notes the limited power of a municipal bench, and points listeners toward a planned interview with the judge on another show for a closer look. Throughout, the tone stays unfiltered: accountability, cultural double standards, free speech, and skepticism of narratives that ignore root causes or basic reality. Classic Clay Edwards Show territory—music nostalgia mixed with sharp takes on sports, crime, identity politics, and local power.

**Episode 1270 – FAFO Friday with Creston Berch** It's FAFO Friday and Clay is wearing pink on purpose. Clay and Creston open with the long-running fight against the “Trans Kids Belong” messaging, revisiting the billboard Clay replaced years ago near Bass Pro in Pearl and reacting to Stephen A. Smith finally breaking ranks on a WNBA coach who wore the same slogan during a game against the Indiana Fever. They make clear where they stand: adults can live however they want, but kids are off-limits and biological reality is not optional. The conversation shifts to the Madison Brooks case. The 19-year-old LSU student was gang-raped, dumped on the interstate, and killed by a vehicle. Her family and supporters asked to wear pink in court; the defense tried to ban it. The judge allowed plain pink clothing. Clay explains why he's wearing a pink FAFO shirt today and questions the judge's history involving her own son. They dig into the newly public records on Christine Wansley (Nolan Wells' mother). Documents show she lost custody of her three older children to their father, James Briscoe, in 2007–2008, was ordered to pay child support, and later saw temporary custody efforts fail before the case ended in shared custody. Clay walks through the timeline, the difference between legal custody and where the kids actually lived, and the selective outrage that elevates some grieving parents into civil-rights figures while others get ignored. That leads to the death of 29-year-old Tasia (Tayshia) Fortune, found hanging from a tree behind a vacant house in Jackson. Councilman Kenneth Stokes is already calling for federal involvement. Clay asks the obvious questions: has a crime even been established yet? Why the rush for outside investigators while the local department is still working the case? He contrasts the reaction with the relative silence around 15-year-old Chloe McDonnell, a Black girl shot and killed on a Jackson walking trail—another young life that didn't fit the preferred narrative. Along the way they touch the Rankin County gun and knife show, the so-called “gun show loophole,” private-sale background checks, and the difference between real accountability and performative outrage. Straight talk, no sugar, FAFO Friday.

Creston Herron conducts the 99th annual 'Les Préludes' of Interlochen Arts Camp this Sunday. Tune in for the live broadcast at 7 p.m on August 9.

**Episode #1269 – The Clay Edwards Show**   with co-host Creston Birch   **Guest (Hour 2):** Jason Miller of Crossin Dixon / Jason Miller Band   Football is almost here, the culture war is still raging, and one of Mississippi's classic country bands is back together after 15 years. Clay and Creston open with the dog days of summer sports talk — Kyle Shanahan's wreck and the media overreaction, week-zero bowl ideas, Ole Miss vs. Louisville in Nashville, and why State and Ole Miss both face tough roads while JSU keeps rolling. Then the show pivots hard into the Nolan Wells case: three of the Horn Island Four have retained Trump's high-profile defamation attorney Edward Andrew Polcic. Clay reads the official statement, pushes the legal fund, and doesn't hold back on the bloodlust, the misinformation, and what this has done to race relations in Mississippi. Also covered: the anonymous tip that triggered a nursing board investigation into Nolan's mother after her public comments. Hour 2 is pure music. Jason Miller sits down live to talk the Crossing Dixon reunion — the first shows in 15 years (including tomorrow night at Cameron's Garage / Cypress Point Resort with the Stevens Brothers), the old Coyote Wild days, getting signed to Broken Bow/Stony Creek, radio tours, Applebee's gigs, why the band broke up, and whether new music is coming. Buck on production, Charlie Grant stories, set lists pulled straight from the old days, and why this time might be different. Straight talk, local heat, and a real conversation about the music business — all on the free-range human show. Powered by Live Better Men's Health & Wellness.

In this episode of The Clay Edwards Show, Clay is joined in studio by Creston Birch (30-year retired law enforcement from Clinton, Mississippi) and Tommy Tatum (calling in from Montana) for a wide-ranging, no-holds-barred discussion. They break down the arrest of two members of the alleged “Neverland” sex trafficking ring in Jackson. Demerion Deontay Corse and Vidal Marcellus Bibbs appeared in municipal court on charges including sexual battery of a child and human trafficking. One is a previously convicted sex offender who had his supervision terminated early. The conversation covers the bonds set, the role of Judge Adrienne Wooten in prior cases, and the broader pattern of how these stories are handled—or ignored—by the culture. Clay, Creston, and Tommy then dig deep into the Nolan Wells case and the ongoing media and activist onslaught. They examine the bloodlust directed at the white teens, Ben Crump's rapid involvement and subsequent silence on other high-profile Mississippi cases (Cohen Wiley, Trey Reed), the credibility of certain audio “enhancements,” and the mother's public behavior. The group discusses why this particular story has exploded, the three federal arrests so far for threats against the teens, and the decision by those accused to push back legally. Later, the conversation shifts to transgender athletes and the WNBA. They react to the push for French player Julie Tetart (a biological male who has dominated overseas) to join the league, Clay Travis's provocative $10 million challenge and expansion team idea, Sophie Cunningham's comments, and Mississippi's legislative efforts to keep men out of women's sports. The hypocrisy of pro-trans advocacy colliding with limited roster spots is laid out plainly. As always, the show sticks to verified reports, court records, and patterns that keep repeating. Straight talk on crime, race hustling, media double standards, and the defense of women's sports—no filter.

**The Clay Edwards Show with Creston Berch** Clay and Creston open with the surging legal fundraiser for Nolan Wells' targeted friends. The original $100,000 goal was obliterated in days—$120,000 already raised and climbing toward $200,000 (and beyond) so the group can retain serious counsel, including the high-powered attorney who just delivered massive wins for Donald Trump. The point is straightforward: match the other side's funding machine instead of letting Ben Crump and the media narrative steamroll the case. The conversation then shifts to the WNBA culture war. Sophie Cunningham continues refusing to back down on men in women's sports while Golden State Valkyries head coach Natalie Nakase openly embraces “trans women” in the league under the banner of inclusivity and authentic self. Clay lays out why biology is decisive after male puberty, discusses Clay Travis's multimillion-dollar challenge (high-school boys or a team of biological males identifying as women versus WNBA talent), and explains the job-security angle for mid-tier players who stay silent. A raw playground video surfaces next: a mother coaching and filming her young son as he confronts and berates a white child, framed online as a “MAGA kid” meeting a “young Panther.” Clay calls it pure culture rot—adults manufacturing racial hostility in eight-year-olds—and contrasts it with the selective outrage machine. The hour also covers a Jackson case that received none of the usual national attention: a teenager (14 at the time of the crime) pleading guilty to the 2021 kidnapping, rape, and murder of a 33-year-old Black woman. Details are grim. The absence of Ben Crump, marches, or sustained media pressure is noted as the predictable double standard. Unfiltered talk on media bias, race-baiting incentives, Section 230 double-dealing, and the broader culture-rot problem that treats some victims as useful and others as inconvenient. No gloves, no softening.

**The Clay Edwards Show – Episode Summary** Unfiltered talk on the current state of America, the “panicins” who suddenly regret their Trump vote, and the dangerous culture of online speculation surrounding the Nolan Wells case. Clay opens by challenging the people who claim buyer's remorse over Donald Trump. He runs through the record of the previous administration—open borders, catch-and-release, DEI mandates across government and the military, energy policies that treated American oil and gas as the enemy, vaccine mandates, endless foreign spending while American cities burned, two-tier justice, and the weaponization of institutions—and asks a simple question: Are you really ready for four more years of that? Guests Creston Birch and Tommy Tatum weigh in on why the border alone, the deportation priority, the DEI purge, the energy emergency, and the restoration of basic competence outweigh the latest grievances about Iran, Israel, or the Epstein files. The conversation then turns to the Nolan Wells case and the broader cultural problem it exposes. Clay pushes back against the immediate race narrative that exploded online, the doctored audio, the fake photos, the family trees of people who simply happened to be on a boat, and the review-bombing of private businesses. He argues that the same voices obsessed with this case go silent on the constant Black-on-Black violence in Jackson and elsewhere, that culture—not “systemic” excuses—drives outcomes, and that inventing hate crimes and defaming private citizens for clicks is both reckless and about to carry real consequences. A caller tries to demand “positive” talking points about Black culture; Clay refuses the premise and points instead to accountability, fatherlessness, and the glorification of thug life that the culture itself markets. Later, news breaks that attorney Russell Latino has been retained by one of the families of the young men being falsely accused. Formal statements and the first defamation lawsuits are coming. Private investigators are already identifying people who manufactured and spread lies that have already generated credible death threats. Clay and Creston discuss why journalistic restraint still matters even on independent platforms, why “allegedly” and “people are saying” do not protect you, and why the online mob that treats real people's lives as content is about to learn an expensive lesson. No sugar. No sacred cows. Just the raw conversation.

**The Truth About Why Black Boys Are Being Killed With Their White Friends** Clay Edwards is joined by Creston Birch, a recently retired 30-year Clinton Police Department veteran, for a raw discussion sparked by a recent incident outside a Flowood Whataburger. Around 1:30 a.m., a group of mostly white teenagers included one Black teen who pointed what turned out to be a realistic toy gun at a white girl's head. A bystander confronted them and called police. Officers arrived to little consequence, and a detective later told the caller that Flowood gets 10–15 similar calls a week involving kids with realistic toy or airsoft guns. Clay shares his own earlier experience witnessing a similar scene in Ridgeland and warns that these look-alike guns create split-second, life-or-death decisions for bystanders and police alike—especially in Rankin and Madison counties. Creston recounts nearly shooting a 14-year-old over a plastic cap gun that fell from a waistband during a late-night stop. The pair walk through documented cases in which children (including Tamir Rice, Andy Lopez, Tyree King and others) were fatally shot after officers or others mistook realistic replicas for real firearms. The conversation expands into parental responsibility, the refusal of many parents to treat the behavior seriously, racial double standards in how these stories are framed, and the broader pattern of crime and cultural accountability in the Jackson metro area. Clay challenges the narrative that race is irrelevant until a Black child is the one shot, and both hosts stress that pointing any gun—real or toy—at another person in public is an act that invites deadly force. Later segments include the 1973 kidnapping of J. Paul Getty III and his grandfather's refusal to pay ransom until an ear was mailed, Clay's recent meeting with UFC legend Matt Hughes, the enduring story of Gary Plauche (the Baton Rouge father who shot his son's kidnapper and molester at the airport), the three-year anniversary of Jason Aldean's “Try That in a Small Town,” a VladTV poll ranking the “most hated” groups in America, and Southaven Mayor Darren Musselwhite's aggressive mini-blind and code-enforcement push. No commercials, station IDs, or streaming mentions. Just the conversation.

In this new episode, Crawlspace Media's Tim Pilleri and Lance Reenstierna discuss the mysterious disappearance of Corinne Elaine Perry and the discovery of her remains with Laura Riste. Corinne Elaine Perry went missing on April 17, 1983, after leaving her home in Creston, Iowa, to do laundry. Her car was found abandoned at the local laundromat the next day with her neatly folded clothes inside; over a year later, on November 3, 1984, her remains were discovered in a shallow grave near a creek south of Creston, and her murder remains unsolved to this day.

**Episode #1260 – The Clay Edwards Show with Creston Berch** Clay Edwards is live on 103.9 WYAB with special guest Creston Berch, a 30-year retired police officer from Clinton, Mississippi.   This episode digs into the continuing fallout from the Nolan Wells case—context around the Cajun Navy's statements, Ben Crump's claims, and why “fully clothed” suddenly became a flashpoint. Creston joins Clay for straight talk on use of force, what it actually takes to stop a threat, and the realities officers face.   The conversation expands into race, accountability, and culture: the difference between being called a racist versus other slurs, claims of systemic racism in 2026, fatherless homes, black-on-black crime, the strained relationship between certain communities and law enforcement, and why broken-windows policing and real accountability matter. A thoughtful listener call pushes the discussion further on disparities, redlining history, personal responsibility, and what “justice” actually looks like.   Also covered: Jasmine Crockett race-baiting the World Cup final without knowing the teams' demographics, Carlos Moore's call for Mississippi State, USM, and Ole Miss players to boycott the season until “justice” for Nolan Wells, compartmentalizing artists from their personal lives (Michael Jackson documentary, Motley Crüe, etc.), and the practical challenges of policing high-crime areas like Jackson—why good officers hesitate and what happens when departments go from call to call instead of proactive work.   Stream the full episode and catch the bonus break conversations on the Mazda Jackson livestream (SaveJXN on YouTube/X, Clay Edwards Show on Rumble, Twitch & Facebook).   Real talk. No sacred cows. Accountability over excuses.

**Podcast Description for Episode 1257 of The Clay Edwards Show** Clay Edwards is back with a no-holds-barred episode featuring special guest **Creston Berch** (retired Clinton Police Department veteran with 30 years on the force) for a fiery discussion on race, crime, culture, and Mississippi's future. In this episode, Clay and Creston break down **Operation No Way** — the controversial push by some in Mississippi's Black community to arm themselves with concealed carry permits in response to the Nolan Wells case. They examine the facts surrounding the drowning, push back hard against the “white mob hunting Black boys” narrative, and dive into sobering national crime statistics showing the massive disparity in Black-on-White versus White-on-Black violent crime. Additional highlights include: - The left's fear of testosterone and Pete Hegseth's new military screening policy - Jackson's skyrocketing homicide rate and the usual summer crime surge - The heated debate over proposed data centers at Lake Hico — economic opportunity vs. conspiracy theories about water, power, cancer, and “selling out” the city - Why Mississippi needs to embrace trades, construction jobs, and real economic development instead of cutting off its nose to spite its face - Local politics, career politicians, term limits, and common-sense government Plus the usual unfiltered takes on media hypocrisy, the no-snitch culture, and why closure on the Nolan Wells case is critical for race relations in the state. **Guest:** Creston Birch Strap in for raw, reality-based talk with no sugar added. This is what The Clay Edwards Show does best.

**Podcast Episode Description:** **Nolan Wells Drowning: Coast Guard Bombshell, Boat Culture Reality & Gulf Coast Insider Perspective | UFC 329 Picks | Clay Edwards Show #1251** In this explosive Friday episode of The Clay Edwards Show (#1251), Clay is joined in-studio by guest host Creston Birch as they break down the latest developments in the tragic Nolan Wells case on Horn Island. The Coast Guard corrects the timeline on when Nolan was reported missing — directly challenging the race-baiting conspiracy theories and "no man left behind" narratives pushed by Ben Crump, Al Sharpton, and online agitators. Clay and Creston discuss boat life etiquette, why leaving someone on the island was completely normal, the dangers of Gulf currents, and why this was almost certainly a tragic accident — not a racist plot. Special caller **TJ** from the Mississippi Gulf Coast joins the show with firsthand insight: he knew Nolan personally, had interactions with the other young men on the boat, and shares the real temperature on the coast amid the media frenzy and social media hysteria. Plus: Heated debate on whether the white friends should attend the funeral, cultural rot in Jackson, self-segregation, conflict resolution differences, and why some are desperate to turn every tragedy into racism. Later, Clay previews **UFC 329** this Saturday night in Las Vegas — McGregor vs. Holloway 2 after 12 years, plus his picks on the full card including Paddy Pimblett, Gable Steveson's UFC debut, and more.

Interview with Stephen Soock, VP Investor Relations & Development of Heliostar MetalsOur previous interview: https://www.cruxinvestor.com/posts/heliostar-metals-tsxvhstr-self-funding-path-from-40k-to-300k-ounces-by-2030-8846Recording date: 2nd March 2026Heliostar Metals is one of the more clearly defined growth stories in the emerging mid-tier gold space. The company is producing approximately 50,000 ounces of gold per year from its La Colorada mine in Mexico and is on a stated path to 300,000 ounces annually by the end of the decade. That growth is to be funded through internal cash flow, without reliance on the equity markets — a commitment management describes with increasing conviction as gold prices remain elevated.The investment case centers on Ana Paula, the company's flagship development asset. A PEA outlined a project capable of producing 100,000 ounces per year over a nine-year mine life at an all-in sustaining cost of approximately $1,000 per ounce. At that cost profile, Ana Paula would rank in the lowest decile of the global gold cost curve, generating substantial free cash flow across a wide range of gold price scenarios. The company is now progressing directly to a full feasibility study, expected in H1 2026, which will serve as the basis for a construction decision. First production is targeted for H2 2028.The geometry of the Ana Paula orebody underpins its economics. Rather than a series of narrow veins requiring extensive underground development, the deposit hosts a wide mineralised breccia flooded with high-grade gold, allowing meaningful ore access with relatively limited lateral development. The high-grade zone grades approximately 5,000 ounces per vertical metre — one of the highest density metrics of any underground gold project globally. Drilling has also confirmed that high-grade mineralisation continues at depth, opening the possibility of expanding Ana Paula beyond its current mine plan toward a potential tier-one scale asset.Beyond Ana Paula, the growth roadmap layers in Cerro del Gallo as a third mine, funded by Ana Paula cash flow and targeted to add another 100,000 ounces per year before the end of the decade. La Colorada continues to provide near-term production stability, with the Veta Madre open pit cutback and subsequent Creston pit extending mine life and sustaining cash generation through the Ana Paula development period.The company has also been tidying its portfolio, recently divesting a package of non-core early-stage exploration assets that did not fit the growth pipeline. Underground decline development at Ana Paula is being restarted in H2 2026, providing tangible operational momentum well ahead of the feasibility study and construction decision.On the capital structure side, Heliostar's share register is now approximately 50% institutional. Generalist funds are beginning to participate, viewing the company as a preferred vehicle for gold growth exposure. The re-rating from developer to producer multiple — which management expects to begin as Ana Paula advances through feasibility — is the key valuation catalyst for current investors.Heliostar's Q1 2026 cash flow results, Ana Paula's feasibility study release, and the progress of project finance conversations in mid-2026 are the primary milestones investors should monitor in the near term. The company has built a credible platform. Execution is now the determining factor.View Heliostar Metals' company profile: https://www.cruxinvestor.com/companies/heliostar-metalsSign up for Crux Investor: https://cruxinvestor.com

Episode 393: On a cold February day in 2022, tragedy struck the small communities of Creston and Kimberley, British Columbia. Julia Howe, a familiar face to her neighbours, was found lifeless in the bathroom of her partner's home. Just hours later and nearly a hundred kilometres away, David Creamer, a father and trusted friend, was discovered dead in his own house. Both initially believed accidental or natural, no one suspected that these two deaths would soon be linked. The true story was finally revealed, albeit in a peculiar manner. The connection between the deaths was finally revealed when Mitchell Earl McIntyre, a man known to both victims, confessed to hospital staff that he was responsible for both deaths. The problem was that, at first, no one believed him. It was the killer's insistence and admissions of guilt that finally cracked the case.
