Full Hour | Today, Dom led off the Dom Giordano Program by asking whether listeners agree with him in his assessment that the Phillies receiving an award for winning the NL but losing the World Series is similar to participation trophies. This leads Dom and Dan into a discussion about other participation trophies, with Dom explaining why he believes both a Grammy and an Emmy is the music and television equivalent to participation awards. Then, Dom offers his thoughts on the Louisville shooting, playing back reaction from Pennsylvania Governor Josh Shapiro, which Dom dissects, telling how Shapiro has been counterintuitive to solving a public safety crisis in Pennsylvania. Also, Dom tells of the success of the new Super Mario movie, and explains frustration with changes made to Disney’s The Little Mermaid.
Then, Dom welcomes in Pennsylvania State Representative Donna Scheuren back onto the Dom Giordano Program to discuss a letter she wrote to the Perkiomen Valley School District explaining why she’s in favor of having armed officers protect our State’s schools. First, though, Dom reminds listeners why they may recognize Donna’s name, telling of her role in keeping Souderton schools open during Coronavirus while serving in her role as a school board member, which she still holds. Then, Giordano and Rep. Scheuren delve into the topic at hand, with Donna explaining how officers in schools could indeed work, telling Dom of the way we can pay these security guards and telling of the value that these security officers would bring. Donna explains that she’d suggest that the officers considered have solid experience and background in law enforcement, suggesting retired members of the Police force from the community.
