On today's episode of The People’s Voice, Blair Castro and Thomas Jenkins are joined by John ‘Tater’ Harris, candidate for Baldwin County Commission District 4, for a conversation centered on leadership, experience, and the future of one of the county’s fastest-growing areas.

Drawing from his background in business and years of community involvement, Harris says he believes his real-world leadership experience has prepared him to help guide responsible growth, support local infrastructure, and protect the quality of life residents value. He shares why he feels now is the right time to step into public service and how his professional background has shaped his approach to problem-solving and decision-making.

From economic strength to long-term planning, Harris outlines the priorities he believes will keep District 4 moving forward, and explains why he feels his experience makes him a strong fit for the role.

🚨Let’s talk about the massive solar farm proposed for Stockton and the growing questions about competing interests between city priorities and county and state leadership, especially from the north end to the south end. Why does it sometimes feel like leaders are focused on separate battles instead of the bigger picture for the entire county?

These decisions shape our growth, our communities, and our future. Now is the time to pay attention!

Join us for the FIRST EVER Candidate Showcase on March 10 in Gulf Shores for a rare opportunity to see county and state candidates right here in the city, hear where they stand, and stay informed on the issues impacting Baldwin County.

Austin Sidwell for Congress sits down with Blair Castro and Thomas Jenkins on this episode of "The People's Voice," breaking down his bid for Alabama’s First Congressional District.  His campaign built on grit, faith, and a refusal to let Washington’s career politicians dictate South Alabama’s future.

Sidwell, a former U.S. Air Force major and small-business leader, is in a crowded field vying to replace Barry Moore, who is running for the U.S. Senate. He says the district needs a fighter — not another insider — who will take his real-world experience to Washington and stand shoulder-to-shoulder with working families, veterans, and everyday Alabamians.

His grassroots campaign is laser-focused on restoring honesty and integrity to government, slashing Washington overreach, and ensuring that tax dollars are spent wisely for the people, not the politicians.

🎙️Meet Ken McFeeters, the Alabama Resident and Republican Challenging Tommy Tuberville for Governor

McFeeters explains why he’s running for governor, what sets him apart in the Republican primary, and why he believes Alabama voters deserve a real alternative — not a rubber stamp. 

Just days ago, McFeeters made statewide headlines after filing a formal eligibility challenge with the Alabama Republican Party, questioning whether Senator Tommy Tuberville meets Alabama’s constitutional residency requirements to appear on the May 19, 2026 Republican primary ballot ⚖️

👉 Watch as McFeeters breaks down his platform, his challenge to the political establishment, and his vision for Alabama’s future.

Today Blair Castro and Thomas Jenkins are talking about discerning authenticity, knowing your worth, and the power of saying NO. 

Sometimes the most powerful thing you can do is simply say no. No to people, projects, or situations that don’t serve you. You have to be able to walk away from anything that drains your time and energy, especially when you know it’s not going to lead anywhere productive.

Be cautious, because there are always people in the community who aren’t what they say they are. Do your research. Meet people face to face. Judge people by their actions and how they treat you.

Most of all, know your worth! Especially here, where some people will try to take advantage of good hearts or vulnerable moments. Protect your peace, stand firm in who you are, and don’t let anyone make you forget your value.

In this episode, we discuss  the crossover between marketing and law, what sparks his bold ideas, how he built a brand people actually remember, and the balance it takes to keep winning cases while still living life to the fullest!

Maloney shares stories, humor, and insights on how he rose from humble beginnings to become one of the most recognized names in the region — proving that creativity and authenticity can build a legacy far beyond the courtroom.

🎙️ Hosted by Blair Castro and Thomas Jenkins right here on WFUZ-TV!
