SRQCountyCast

Jamie, Buttons and Seth talk some trash (specifically storm debris), and in celebration of Veterans Day, Darrell joins us to talk about the services available to our vets. Plus, Sustainability Outreach Coordinator Alia stops by to talk about all the great things going on at the Sarasota County UF/IFAS Extension and Sustainability Office.  

We're a week late with this episode, but it hasn't exactly been podcasting weather. 

We join Jamie, Buttons and Seth at the Sarasota County Emergency Operations Center where they hunkered down for Hurricane Ian. They've got some helpful recovery info, plus updates from our Englewood and North Port neighbors.  

The Communications team gets a vice presidential visit from Mote Marine Laboratory, and Ronnie from Capital Projects drops by for a Hart-stopping interview.    

The Communications team 'turns it up with a live studio audience -- the Intern Sarasota class of 2022! Kyree, Christian and Katie tell us what they've been up to this summer at Sarasota County Government, and HD from HR is back with some intern info and job opportunities. Jamie, Seth and Buttons didn't win the Mega Millions jackpot, but the Siesta Key Breeze is a millionaire!   

This month, Jamie, Buttons and Seth send a birthday shout out to a very special lady. Joanna invites everyone in the entire county to give her a call, and Jordyn teaches us table manners (among other things). There may also be a very special offer regarding your car's extended warranty.  

Jamie, Buttons and Seth talk lawn maintenance, new drivers, courthouses and strawberry shortcake. Sara stops by with some great tips for getting prepared for Hurricane Season, and Mollie tells us why she throws goats into the water and how we can make a positive impact on our bays and estuaries. 

The gang’s all here – Buttons is back from Budapest, and Jamie and Seth are back from Big Truck Day in North Port – HONK HONK.

After announcements and the County Commission update, Jackie stops by to help get our yards (and us) prepared for the Florida rainy season. Then Armando joins us in the studio for a rousing game of Sea Turtle Trivia!

In this episode, Seth and Jamie have to make it through without Buttons. We get the buzz from Natalie with Mosquito Management, and Josh from the HIstory Center stops by for a chat. We hear about a new number to dial in Sarasota County, and Jamie gives us an update from March's County Commission meetings.  

Buttons has flown the coop, so we're calling in reinforcements. New episode launches Friday, April 1.  

In this pilot episode, the Sarasota County Communications Team gathers in the Access Sarasota studio to talk SRQ County Quest Geocaching with Shirley/Sammi, public service and volunteerism with Heather and guessing games with Steve. 

We also learn a little about Jamie, James and Seth ... mainly that Jamie has an A-Team, James can drive a bus and Seth can't do math (21 is not a prime number). 

And at 8:20 into the episode, Jamie delivers the "morning announcements" and your County Commission news.
