Join Clay Edwards for Episode #1,102 of The Clay Edwards Show on WYAB, broadcast on November 17, 2025. In this lively Monday morning episode, Clay kicks things off with casual banter about watching a college football game at Cypress Point and Shucker's, highlighting a performance by the band Common Courtesy. The discussion dives into Mississippi State vs. Ole Miss rivalry, playoff scenarios, and tiebreakers, with insights on teams like Alabama and potential SEC championship implications.   Clay shares nostalgic stories from road trips to Florida for an Ole Miss basketball game, a Kid Rock concert in Memphis, and a weekend in New Orleans coinciding with Dale Earnhardt's funeral. The conversation touches on legendary stadiums like the Rose Bowl and UCLA's move to SoFi Stadium.   In a fiery segment, Clay critiques Michelle Obama's comments on race and beauty standards, questioning her focus on white people and cultural appropriation. He debates the Obamas' ongoing relevance in the Black community and contrasts Barack's legacy as advancing gay rights more than Black issues.   Hour two features guest Andrew Gosser discussing a "MAGA civil war" sparked by Donald Trump's withdrawal of support from Marjorie Taylor Greene, labeling her antics and left-leaning appearances on The View and CNN. They analyze MTG's responses, including claims of threats and pizza doxing, and her shift toward apologizing for "toxic politics."   The episode explores Tucker Carlson's exposé on Thomas Crooks, the Butler, PA shooter, alleging CIA grooming via MKUltra-style programs, hidden social media accounts, and a quick cremation to obscure evidence. They call for dismantling agencies like the FBI and CIA.   In hour three, Joseph Stodghill, owner of Martin's Downtown and Livingston, joins to share Martin's history since 1953—from its origins as a deli to expansions and blue-plate lunches. They discuss navigating COVID shutdowns by reopening early, water crises, and future plans like rodeo after-parties, concerts at the Livingston venue (a church-turned-event space), and enhanced parade safety measures in Jackson.   Tune in for unfiltered talk on sports, politics, and local business resilience.

In this special segment from Episode #1,102 of The Clay Edwards Show on WYAB, host Clay Edwards sits down with Joseph Stodghill, owner of Martin's Downtown and Martin's Livingston, for an in-depth interview on the iconic Jackson staple.   Joseph shares the rich history of Martin's, founded in 1953 as a simple beer spot and deli before evolving into a beloved blue-plate lunch destination. He recounts how his family, originally in the tire business with Bickton Tire, entered the restaurant world when his father bought Martin's in 1997 from original owner Martin Lester—a close family friend. From its early locations near State Street to the current spot since the mid-1980s, Joseph's stories highlight the bar's transformation from a redneck mecca alongside Shooter's Supply and Big Ten Tires to a vibrant community hub.   Clay and Joseph reminisce about riding out Hurricane Katrina at Martin's, where they never lost power and served as a lifeline for locals with food, ice, and drinks amid widespread outages. They discuss the challenges of restaurant life, including consistency in dishes like fried pork chops and country-fried steak, and personal battles with addiction in the industry.   The conversation turns to resilience during tough times: Joseph's decision to reopen Martin's after 30 days of COVID shutdowns, facing police visits but standing firm to keep staff employed. He credits a pre-installed water filtration system for navigating Jackson's water crises without major disruption.   Looking forward, Joseph talks expansions at Martin's Livingston—a former church now hosting weddings, concerts, and community events like crawfish boils and mini parades. He praises the new Jackson mayor's pro-business approach, improved law enforcement collaboration, and plans for safer St. Patrick's Day parades with potential metal detectors and controlled perimeters. Exciting updates include official rodeo after-parties at Martin's Downtown both weekends.   Tune in for heartfelt tales of Jackson's past, present challenges, and bright future from a true local visionary. Support Martin's—try the fried or grilled pork chops today at either location!   Subscribe for more unfiltered talks on local business and Mississippi life.

Spring Lake Church – DowntownSermon: The Bread From HeavenTeacher: Bill Van KirkPassages: John 6:25-71In “The Bread From Heaven,” Pastor Bill Van Kirk teaches from John 6:25–71, where Jesus reveals Himself as the true bread that gives life to the world.

Is Montreal really "in decline"… or are we just stuck in a negative narrative?
