Live At Five

Glenn was solo today, and was waiting for Joe to call, but he didn't. Good stuff today, Glenn gave us his thoughts about the Israeli conflict and took several calls concerning the Marine Admiral who has suspended promotions in the military due to his anti-abortion stance. Johnny Spezzano stopped by to let all know how successful day one was for his Children's Miracle Network Radio-Thon.

City Council Candidate, Leornard Spazziani had a rousing show today! Glenn asked the 'necessary' questions about the golf course deal, the pool AND why Leonard was seen helping sitting councilman, Cliff Olney take down a political sign on Factory Street. Another candidate chimed in to say Leonard was lying too. Plus, Leonard addressed questionable remarks made from another candidate too.

Write-In City Council Candidate, Jason Traynor was in the studio today to tell voters he has the conviction to be city councilman. Jim Leven popped in and the conversation gravitated towards the death of actor Matthew Perry over the weekend. Then it was back to Jason, who thinks drugs and poverty are huge issues in Watertown. Plus, he believes JCC should be a four year college.

Glenn had Cheryl Zeldin John and Tommy John today to get their thoughts about the Israeli conflict. This went on until the bottom of the hour, then Glenn talked about the accident that killed a young Watertown man and the sad news about the Watertown Zoo closing. It looks like it's for good too. Sad, just like everything else.

Wow, not (1) but (2) candidates for city council today! TJ Babcock AND his opponent, Ben Shoen were both on after Glenn's monthly conversation with Jerry Manor from Seacomm Credit Union. Both candidates talked about how their alliance will benefit the city of Watertown.

Passion, that's what AM1240 listeners have, passion for their city. Glenn covered this a day after his interview with City Council candidate Dr. Kimball. Glenn had Attorney Joe Stanley on today, he asked Joe about the rules around a school bus at a busy intersection.

Glenn had Dr. Robert Kimball on today's show. Retired Dr. Kimball is looking to become Watertown City Councilman. Plenty of callers today, who want to know how Dr. Kimball would have handled the golf course and pool deals with the current council members. Homelessness and the growing drug problems are at the top of his concern list.

Glenn did have a guest, it was supposed to be Councilwoman Lisa Rugierio, but she cancelled last minute. So, it was Glenn and his listeners. Too many 'In the Weeds' callers, so Glenn stretched his legs out about the Israeli/Palestinian crisis. Also, Cliff Olney wants answers to the water main break! Glenn says his press release looks like it was written by anyone else but Cliff!

Glenn had State Senator Mark Walczyk in today to talk about Albany, his thoughts about yesterday's water main break, and the positive initiatives set in place by his Republican colleagues. Good discussion about Natural Gas and Albany's attempt to eliminate it forever.

Glenn did a tribute to the late Suzzane Somers who passed away at 76. After a short shout out about tomorrow's debate, it was all Israel, and why people shouldn't be sympathetic to a country that was born to hate the Jews. Glenn asked Duff if any other Republican can win in 2024, he said no, Glenn agrees.
