Today's show is what The Anthony Esposito Show is all about! To start off, we heard from Aishia Leverett, District 5 Candidate for Richmond County School Board. Despite Ms. Leverett's pro-Gamecock background, we had a great time discussing the issues facing Richmond County schools and her ideas to get the school system on track.
Next up was former Mayor of Augusta, Bob Young, to talk about the Betty Beard situation. My takeaway from the conversation is that Augustans will get as ethical a government as they demand. The former Mayor also tossed in his 2 cents about how to save the TEE Center given the current economic and political constraints. That idea can be read about in the Sunday, September 27 Augusta Chronicle right here.
The weekly Friday at 2 local music hour reached its zenith this week with the appearance of jazz superstar Wycliffe Gordon! Wycliffe was in town to play at Sky City Friday night and will be performing next weekend on Sunday, October 4 as part of the Aiken Jazz Festival. While I don't think I'll be taking up the trombone any time soon to challenge his prowess, I did learn a lot about his instrument of choice and a bit more about what jazz such a unique genre of music. Hope folks cross the river next weekend to hear Wycliffe live!
On Monday, I'll be interviewing the third of three candidates for District 5 School Board - Patsy Scott, I'll talk to David Matos about his recent trip to Israel and Palestine, and I'll fill you in on a little Mass Transit Mess situation that will be coming before the Public Services Committee. See y'all then!
