Welcome to Friday on the Mark Thompson Show. It’s always a great place to learn a little and have a little fun… I mean a lot. Learn a lot and have a lot of fun. I’m gonna hear about that! Thus, it begins. First, let’s get caught up on the Israeli – Gaza War. Last evening, President Joe Biden spoke to Americans. He explained that this war is an “inflection point” - a fight between democracies and autocracies. He made the case for sending more financial aid to the region, comparing Hamas to Putin. He also discussed Palestinian people caught in the middle jwho are desperate for humanitarian aid. The mess in the People’s House is still not being cleaned up. We will check in on the latest efforts to choose a new Speaker, wicked threats made to GOP Members, Trump’s legal saga and more. Favorite duo Jim Avila in Michael Shure will weigh in on it all. You can’t run from the law in Broward County. Friday Fabulous Florida brings a ridiculously poor attempt to hide from officers and a lot more. John Daly is coming to heckle Floridians! Then Culture Blaster Michael, Snyder jumps in to the fray with his latest movie reviews ahead of the weekend releases. The Mark Thompson Show 10/20/23
