Richmond's Morning News with Rich Herrera

CBS6 Crime Insider Jon Burkett joins Karen at the top of the 9 o'clock hour, to share the latest crime statistics and provide updates to recent crime stories.

Jim Bacon, of Bacon's Rebellion, is back for his weekly segment, so as to talk -- in this case to Karen Michael -- about the latest stories and headlines in the news and on his website.

Wait -- isn't John Reid the host of the show??  Well, usually he is!  Yet, today, and the rest of this week, John is on vacation.  However, he'll be joining the show as a guest at least a few days this week, to update the listening audience about his planned travels -- and on that note: John's update today relates to those best-laid plans. . . .

Next up this morning is Virginia DMV Commissioner Gerald Lackey, who joins Karen so as to talk to her about his/the Youngkin Administration's plans to transform and modernize the department.

Guest Host Week! Karen Michael is in for John today through Wednesday, and then again on Friday. Joining her atop the 7 o'clock hour is Kevin Hyer, CEO of the Hyer Calling Foundation -- which serves as an advocate for the recovery community in the workplace.

For the last segment of today's "Reid on the Road," Trump Winery Winemaker Jonathan Wheeler joins John, to discuss his work at the winery (the largest east of the Mississippi in America).

Hospitably, Gary hangs around after "Picking & Grinning," so as to interview "The Voice of the Rams," Robby Robinson, about the VCU Men's Basketball home game tonight versus Norfolk State.

It's Fri-yay -- and, thus, time for "Picking & Grinning"!  Former Virginia Governor and U.S. Senator George Allen is back, to pick NFL games with John and "The Czar" Gary Hess (and off-air, "Steeler Dan"). Governor Allen also weighs in on last night's novelty "Red State v. Blue State" debate between Florida Governor Ron DeSantis and California Governor Gavin Newsom.

Eric Trump himself joins John at the bottom of the 8 o'clock hour this morning, to talk about the Trump Winery, his father's 2024 campaign, and the nonstop/insufferable efforts by the Left to destroy him.

Jason Roop, founder of the PR firm Springstory, joins John at the top of the 8 o'clock hour this morning, to talk about what folks can do in and around Richmond this weekend.
