All Things Augusta . . .

Howdy folks!  Just another day in the neighborhood on The Anthony Esposito Show.

We started off with former commissioner and now candidate for District 5, Bobby Hankerson.  After losing his seat 4 years ago by 11 little votes, he's back trying to regain his commission seat.  As with all the candidates, we'll certainly be having Bobby back on as the election season unfolds.  If you'd like to ask him a question directly, just shoot him an e-mail at bobby@bobbyhankerson.com.  Remember, all politics is local!

On Friday we had our weekly local music session one hour early and it totally rocked!  Tara Scheyer (of Tara Scheyer and the Mud Puppies) was in the studio talking about her band and their big concert on Sunday, September 20 at Fort Discovery.  Tickets are available at Tara's doggie bakery called Fetch Dog Treats at Surrey Center on Berkmans Road.  These kid oriented concerts usually sell out, so drop by her store and get your tickets early!

In the final hour, we were paid a visit by Rick Keuroglian of Old Towne Augusta.  Where is Old Towne?  Well, it's in between Downtown Augusta and East Augusta and is a great neighborhood.  While I don't think he knows it, Rick is now officially the guest with the most difficult to pronounce last name in the history of my show! 

At the end of the show, Rick and I were joined by Micki Eubanks.  Micki is a sophomore at the University of South Carolina Upstate and a big Gamecock fan.  She was a good sport as I tossed out my anti-Gamecock barbs (I'm a UGA grad, so what do you expect?) and fired some awesome retorts right back at me. 

Next week on the show, we've got three more county commission candidates, I go all out on "Statues Held Hostage," and I show my truly "politically homeless" colors as I show you what's wrong with the health care fixes proposed by the right and the left.  See y'all then!
