Richmond's Morning News with Rich Herrera

Next up this AM is Vice-Chair of The Virginia Council and noted art historian Dr. Ann McLean.  John and she discuss the rather odd choice to bestow an award upon up at Monticello. . . .

Happy Tuesday, listening family -- and what a way to start off the day: with none other than the Governor of Virginia himself . . . Glenn Youngkin!  John talks to Governor Youngkin principally about his proposed budget -- but also about the task of reviewing the legislature's work from this past Session and deciding which bills to sign, amend, and veto.

Finally: With today's eclipse pending, we check back in with the Science Museum of Virginia's Justin Bartel, the museum's Assistant Director of Education for Astronomy Programs.  Justin has even traveled for the event to Texas, where a view of the event is supposed to be especially good.

Because today is Monday, we also check in with regularly scheduled guest Jim Bacon, of Bacon's Rebellion.  John and Jim discuss the latest stories emanating from the University of Virginia, including a "fat and proud of it" campaign. . . .

Atop the 8 o'clock hour, we check back in with friend of the show Tim Murtaugh, co-host of The Line Drive Podcast and President Trump's 2020 Communications Director.  John talks to Tim about his own 2024 forecasting, as well as Tim's new book, about his life in recovery, entitled Swing Hard in Case You Hit It.

Next up this Monday morning, we catch up with Dr. Bob Holsworth of DecideSmart Virginia.  Dr. Holsworth talks to John about the latest 2024 polling numbers, as well as what the parties' campaign strategies will be for the forthcoming election season.

Happy Monday, listening family!  As has become customary, we start off our week of shows by checking in with Fox's Brian Kilmeade!  John and Brian talk about media hostility toward Israel, the ongoing migrant crime crisis, and -- The Brian Kilmeade Show!

Last for the week, we check in, as usual, with our "Movie Guy" Mike Mayo, who talks to John about the latest Woody Allen movie, entitled Coup de Chance.

In what ends up essentially as another interview segment for the day, John and Producer Dan have an extended conversation -- in honor of Star Trek "First Contact" Day -- about Dan's hero, the late film scorer, Jerry Goldsmith (1929-2004).  Producer Dan talks about Goldsmith's appeal, as well as that of the Star Trek franchise in general.

Continuing our "Women for Trump" series, we welcome to the show former Attorney General of Florida, Pam Bondi -- who is presently at Mar-a-Lago with the President.  John and Pam talk about issues that matter to women and why they should support President Trump's re-election bid accordingly.
