We wrap up our one-year Mark Thompson Show Anniversary week with more of your videos and wonderful messages. The support and love you've shown us is amazing and humbling. More fun to come on this show even in the shadow of what is underway in the Middle East. Israel is telling the United Nations that people in the Northern Gaza Strip have 1 day to leave. That's about 1.1 million people that have a matter of hours now to get out before retaliation comes swift and sure following the Hamas attack. We'll have the latest information for you. We will not have a Speaker Steve Scalise. He withdrew his name from consideration saying the Republican conference is not working together and some people have their own agendas. He says those people have to decide to set their own agendas to the side and prioritize the need to come together as a party. Scalise says he will not have his name used as an excuse to keep the House closed. We have our brilliant friends Jim Avila and Michael Shure coming by to talk all about it. It's Friday!!! Enter John Daly to the Friday Fabulous Florida fray! We'll enjoy a finely crafted showcase of stories that are so very Florida. (Thanks Albert!) Michael Snyder, the Culture Blaster, will ride his rainbow in toward the end of the show to talk about movies...something tells me he's not reviewing the new Taylor Swift Eras documentary! It's The Mark Thompson Show and we couldn't be more proud to start our second year! 10/13/23 Patreon subscribers are the backbone of the show!
