We discuss the urgent issue of gun violence and community safety across Pennsylvania, following recent incidents such as the shooting at the Carlisle Sports Emporium. Lt. Governor Austin Davis has consistently emphasized prevention through increased state investments—supporting youth safety programs, expanding violence intervention initiatives like the Hospital-Based Violence Intervention Program (HVIP), and strengthening community partnerships. We explore how these efforts aim to address root causes, protect young people, and build safer neighborhoods statewide. The conversation also highlights the role of Pennsylvania's Office of Gun Violence Prevention as a key resource in coordinating data-driven strategies and solutions.We also take listeners behind the scenes of Philadelphia's preparation for an unprecedented 45-day stretch of major summer events, including the FIFA World Cup, MLB All-Star Week, and citywide celebrations. While millions gather to celebrate, healthcare professionals, emergency managers, and public health leaders are working in sync to manage the hidden challenges—patient surges, heat-related illness, infectious disease monitoring, and mass casualty readiness. Featuring insights from planning committee member and emergency management leader Chris Chamberlain, we explore the coordinated systems, real-time communication, and infrastructure designed to keep residents and visitors safe during one of the city's busiest and most complex summer seasons.

The Lieutenant Governor is by most measures the most powerful office in Texas' state government structure. With full control over the agenda of the state Senate, nothing gets through our legislative process without the Lt. Governor's approval - so, placing a Democrat in that position would signal a fundamental change in the Legislature's ongoing and intolerable reality.Austin State Rep. Vikki Goodwin has been running for this critical office for the better part of a year - and Progress Texas has proudly endorsed her as a highly experienced and dedicated pro who would be perfect to help turn things around in Texas. The James Talarico race is important of course, and getting a lot of attention - but Rep. Goodwin's race (and that of State Rep. Gina Hinojosa for Governor) are of even more dire and direct impact in Austin, and are thus worth the attention of Texas voters looking for change.Learn more about Rep. Goodwin's campaign at https://www.vikkigoodwin.com/.Thanks for listening! Learn more about Progress Texas and how you can support our ongoing work at https://progresstexas.org/.

He also opens up about one of the most difficult chapters of his public life: his 2020 gubernatorial loss, what he learned from the experience, and how it changed his perspective on politics and leadership. Today, Forest has embarked on a new chapter that he says he genuinely loves. As a lobbyist and leader of a coalition focused on blockchain technology and AI, he is helping businesses and policymakers navigate some of the most transformative innovations of our time. He discusses the opportunities and challenges presented by AI, the future of cryptocurrency, and why he believes emerging technologies will reshape government, business, and everyday life. Plus, Skye and Brian break down the latest developments at the General Assembly, including a budget update, several key bills on the move, and a notable veto override.

A new audit of more than 2 million registered voters in Utah found 27 confirmed and 25 likely non-citizens on the voter rolls. Now obviously, the closer we can get that number to 0, the better. But does this small amount -- about 50 out of 2 million -- mean there's widespread fraud underway? Lieutenant Governor Deidre Henderson shares more about the audit and also touches on continued efforts to eliminate mail-in voting.

Today we turn to the race for lieutenant governor — an office that often gets less attention than governor or senator, but one that can play an important role in shaping state policy, economic development, higher education, and California's political future.Today's guest is Michael Tubbs.Tubbs first gained national attention when he was elected mayor of Stockton at age 26, becoming one of the youngest mayors of a major American city. During his time in office, he focused on issues like gun violence prevention, economic mobility, and poverty, and became especially well known for launching one of the country's first guaranteed income pilot programs.Since leaving office, Tubbs has remained active in public policy, writing and speaking about economic inequality, education, and the challenges facing communities that have often been left out of California's prosperity. He has also taught at Stanford and worked on statewide and national initiatives focused on opportunity and anti-poverty policy.Now running for lieutenant governor, Tubbs is arguing that California needs a new generation of leadership focused on affordability, economic opportunity, and making state government work more effectively for working people.I sat down with Michael Tubbs recently to talk about his campaign, his time as mayor, and how he sees California's future.https://michaeltubbsforca.com/https://mtubbs.com/What's Next, Los Angeles? is produced and hosted by Mike Bonin, in partnership with LA Forward.

Missouri Lieutenant Governor David Wasinger (R) says this will be the biggest tourism season Missouri has seen, due to the World Cup in Kansas City and the Route 66 centennial celebration. Lt. Governor Wasinger joined guest host Jennifer Bukowsky live on 939 the Eagle's "Wake Up Missouri":
The show opens with a heartbreaking and disturbing tragedy out of Virginia, where former Lieutenant Governor Justin Fairfax fatally shot his wife before taking his own life, leaving their children without parents. Lawmakers across the state expressed shock, urging families facing domestic conflict to seek help, as details emerged about prior marital strain and calls for police intervention, reigniting national conversations around domestic violence and mental health. The cast also reacts to growing scrutiny around rapper Future, as court records and legal filings reveal a sharp contrast between his reported nine‑figure net worth and relatively low monthly child‑support payments—made possible, experts say, by strategic asset structuring and filing in states with capped child‑support guidelines. The Hot Spot turns to gospel star Tina Campbell, whose decades‑long marriage reportedly could not survive long‑standing tensions intensified by her public support of Donald Trump—a stance that insiders say created deep divides at home and within the faith community. And in one of the show’s most debated moments, Akon goes viral after openly defending his polygamous lifestyle, arguing that men and women are not “biologically equal” in relationships—a claim that sparked immediate backlash and a heated discussion on responsibility, culture, and modern relationships.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
