Early voting is under way in the Aug. 1 election, and Scott and Jesse take a look at some local races on this week's episode: School board races in districts 2 and 5, a County Commission contest in District 5, and primaries for House District 15 and state Senate District 6. Also: County Mayor Glenn Jacobs attempts to smooth out controversy over the future of South Knox County's Bower ballfields; a social media firestorm over the future of WUTK college radio and its longtime general manager, Benny Smith; and County Commissioner Larsen Jay posts some eye-popping fundraising numbers two years ahead of the 2026 county mayor race. Looking ahead, the guys preview a County Commission session on Monday.
