VB in the Middle

With the looming migrant caravan getting closer and closer to the Mexico/U.S. Border, President Trump threatens to shutdown the border if Mexico does not step in. We are already way over capacity at our immigration facilities and we cannot hold much more. As a result of the shutdown of the border, it could greatly impact trade but the President says safety is a bigger concern.

Another woman comes forward accusing Joe Biden of inappropriate behavior towards her in the past. What are we doing here? Should we be criticizing the guy for rubbing someone's shoulders? Putting a hand on someone's back? Are we unnecessarily burying the guy or is the attention surrounding Biden warranted and discussion needs to be had?

We have a nice potpourri of topics today: Is Joe Biden creepy or did he behave inappropriately in the past with women as he is now under fire for that assumption...It's April Fools Day & Burger King tried tricking some of their customers by giving them a vegetarian Whooper, a tragic incident down in S. Carolina where a woman was killed by a man she mistook for her Uber driver, and we talk to John Fusco, the screenwriter of the new Netflix film, "The Highwaymen", the film about the Texas Rangers who took down Bonnie & Clyde! It's all here on "VB in the Middle"!

A young woman from New Jersey was killed down in South Carolina after getting into the wrong car and going with a man who she thought was her Uber driver. This horrific incident raises many questions as to how could this happen, why is this man out in society, and how can you prevent these types of incidents? We discuss the terrible tragedy at hand.

Screenwriter of the new film on Netflix, "The Highwaymen", about the Texas Rangers who took down Bonnie & Clyde, was on the program today to talk about the script he wrote and the movie as a whole. He was great to chat with and we find out he is a fellow New Englander!

Burger King is testing out a new "meatless" burger called the "Impossible Whopper" which is made from the company, "Impossible Foods" vegetarian patties. They pranked a couple of their customers with the new patties, telling them after that it was actually not real beef! We discuss whether you as a meat eater would be able to tell immediately if you bit into a vegetarian patty. VB thinks he would know right away and would never be fooled!

Former Vice President and suspected 2020 presidential candidate, Joe Biden is under fire for the way he behaved around women in the past. He has been seen rubbing their shoulders, kissing them on the head, and just down right being "creepy". VB defends Biden, Lightning & Waffles find him a bit creepy...

A full plate today on "VB in the Middle"!
