Hosts Patricia Murphy and Tia Mitchell open the listener mailbag to tackle timely questions about political violence, fact-checking, and election rules in Georgia. Then, Greg Bluestein joins Patricia for an exclusive interview with State Sen. Steve Gooch, who discusses his bid for lieutenant governor, the impact of Trump’s “big, beautiful bill” on Georgia’s budget, and his take on leading the Georgia Senate during a high-stakes election cycle.
