Texarkana Talks

This morning we learn a lot about We Are Washington and the big golf tournament on Friday to benefit the many programs built to serve the youth in our community.

Today we’re talking about the 2026 Veterans Day Parade & Extravaganza, coming to downtown Texarkana on November 14! We’ve got all the details on how to enter the parade, how to become a vendor, and what you need to know about the big Gary Allan concert happening that night.

 Jenn Mack joined us this morning for a wide-ranging conversation about Texas, the issues shaping the state, immigration, Islamic movements, government, and the questions she says politicians often avoid. 

The Bureau of Land Management is hosting a Wild Horse & Burrow Adoption Event this weekend at the McCurtain County Fairgrounds. 150 horses and burros are available for adoption, and we have all of the details you need to give one of these beautiful animals a good home. 

Great discussion today about Keep Arkansas Beautiful efforts and the blessing that is Girltrek. Ms. Tiffanie Willis Archie gives us all of the information for the transformation to pride in our communities. 

Last week on I-30, Mitchell Royal witnessed a terrifying accident unfold—a pickup pulling a camper trailer crashed into the back of an 18-wheeler, sending the camper and propane tanks into flames. Inside the truck was a woman and seven dogs.

Mitchell didn’t stop to think about it. He ran across the interstate, straight toward the fire, and helped pull the woman and her dogs to safety.

This morning on Texarkana Talks, Mitchell joins Jeff to share what he saw, what went through his mind, and what happened in those chaotic moments when an ordinary drive turned into a life-or-death rescue.

It’s an incredible story of courage, instinct, and one Texarkana man who saw someone in trouble and simply went.
AND... we share a secret!

This morning, TJ Wall joined us to discuss his campaign for Ward 4 City Director in Texarkana Arkansas. We talk about his platform, ideas, the dire situation that Texarkana Arkansas is in, and more!

Ms. Brittney Haynes joins us to talk about this weekend's "Tacos 'N' Tunes" event. We also need more CASA volunteers, especially men. We also have a little fun this morning with some trivia. This weekend is the biggest fundraiser of the year for CASA and the Texarkana Children's Advocacy Center.

Daniel Thields with the Texarkana Arkansas Fire Department joins us to discuss the Fill the Boot Campaign coming up on Fridays in the month of October to benefit the Muscular Dystrophy Association. We try "Black Bear Cracklin's" and discuss Johnny's extremely rare condition for a laugh.
