On this week’s show:
- The seemingly never-ending internal conflicts within the Alabama Democratic Party.
- The possibility of a special session to address gambling legislation in Alabama.
- The fines imposed on Marilyn Lands for campaign finance reporting violations may be politically motivated retribution.
- The secret recordings of Supreme Court Justices Alito and Roberts.
- The Southern Baptist Convention’s decision to oppose in vitro fertilization.
- Our guest is Rev. Dr. Randy Kelley: Kelley zooms in to express his opinions on several issues, including racism, party politics, and the challenges facing the Alabama Democratic Party. Dr. Kelley accuses certain party members of attempting to dilute the Black vote and undermining his leadership, and mentions plans to file a lawsuit against the Democratic National Committee.
- And this week’s Rightwing Nut of the Week.

Send us a question:
We take a bit of time each week to answer questions from our audience about Alabama politics — or Alabama in general. If you have a question about a politician, a policy, or a trend — really anything — you can shoot us an email at [email protected] or with this form.
You can also send it to us on Facebook and Twitter. Or by emailing us a voice recording to our email with your question, and we may play it on air.
Either way, make sure you include your name (first name is fine) and the city or county where you live.
