Tonight on On the Record, Jerome Sawyer goes one-on-one with three-time NBA champion and international star Rick Fox following his high-profile ratification as the Free National Movement's candidate for Garden Hills. In a candid and wide-ranging conversation, Fox peels back the celebrity headlines to share his authentic Bahamian story—from his childhood days working at Holiday Ice to his decision to "burn the ships" and return home permanently to serve.

Tonight on On the Record, Jerome Sawyer hosts a high-stakes political round robin featuring representatives from the PLP, FNM, and Coalition of Independents (COI) as they square off over the critical issues defining the road to the 2026 general election. Watch as the guests clash over the escalating cost of living and the bureaucratic "red tape" stifling local entrepreneurs, while presenting their parties' distinct plans to provide hope and employable skills to a disenfranchised youth population. The discussion turns heated over the fate of the Grand Lucayan redevelopment and the chronic infrastructure failures—including deteriorating roads and persistent flooding—that many Bahamians feel are only addressed when an election is near. From the potential value of natural resources to the urgent need for accountability in healthcare, this episode offers a spirited look at whether national leadership is truly grounded in the everyday priorities of the people.

Tonight on On the Record, we sit down with Kesha Ellis, the visionary Executive Director of Hands for Hunger, to reflect on a decade of transformative impact and the organization's evolution from a food rescue group to a leader in direct community assistance. Discover how the innovative "client choice" pantry and school feeding programs are restoring dignity to those facing food insecurity while the new Empowerment Program tackles root causes through financial literacy and career support. Ellis also pulls back the curtain on the "dollars behind the dinners," explaining how strategic bulk purchasing turns a $50 donation into $150 worth of food for families in need. Tune in for an inspiring look at the future of food security in The Bahamas and find out how you can support the mission to ensure every Bahamian has access to three healthy meals a day.
