Richmond's Morning News with Rich Herrera

At the bottom of the 8 o'clock hour, we check back in with local political activist Paul Goldman, who has filed a lawsuit to try to stop the new ballpark project from proceeding as planned.  John and Paul talk about the suit, which is the subject of a court hearing later this week.

Atop the 8 o'clock hour, John has a conversation with his fellow WRVA host and Politics & Pints panelist -- former Ambassador to Belgium Howard Gutman!  John and Howard discuss both national and international political issues, with John speculating that the Democrats may yet dump Joe Biden before the party's nominating convention in August.

At the bottom of the 7 o'clock hour, we check in with House of Delegates member Mark Earley Jr., of Midlothian.  Now that the legislature and Governor Younkin have passed a state budget, John and Delegate Earley discuss some of the details thereof.

Happy Tuesday, everyone!  First among John's slate of guests this AM is Blaine McCormick, member of the Richmond Flying Squirrels Broadcasting Team!  Blaine talks to John about the forthcoming Squirrels homestand, against the Fighting Phils of Reading!

Finally this Monday morning, we hear -- as is customary -- from Jim Bacon of Bacon's Rebellion.  John and Jim continue an ongoing dialogue about wokeness on the grounds of The University of Virginia.

Next, atop the 8 o'clock hour, we check in with Dr. Ken Lipstock, Founder and President of the Richmond Jewish Alliance.  John talks to Dr. Lipstock about Joe Biden's opposition to Israel's retaliatory war effort in Gaza -- and why the Democrats (and Westerners in general) should be more supportive of the Jewish State.

Next, at the bottom of the 7 o;clock hour, we check in with former Reagan appointee and Public Affairs Officer Daryl Borgquist.  John and Daryl talk about the classified documents prosecution that the feds brought against President Trump -- with Daryl offering some context to help us layfolks better understand the matter.

With the General Assembly set to reconvene about the state budget, John next chats with State Senator Ryan McDougle about the process -- between Republican and Democrat leaders -- that yielded a proposed compromise.

Happy Monday, listening family!!!  As today is Monday, this means that we hear from our good friend . . . Brian Kilmeade of Fox & Friends and (airing right after Richmond's Morning News) The Brian Kilmeade Show!  John and Brian talk about the weekend's news, from graduation walkouts, to the war in the Middle East, to President Trump's trials and rallies.  Whom will President Trump pick as his VP?  Brian has some thoughts regarding the subject. . . .

Finally this Friday (and week), we hear from our "Movie Guy," Mike Mayo -- who revisits the 1986 film The Name of the Rose, starring Sean Connery, F. Murray Abraham, and Christian Slater.
