    STATE REP. FRED SHANKS ON ABC LIQUOR BACKLOG, MOBILE SPORTS BETTING & MORE

    In this segment of The Clay Edwards Show, host Clay Edwards welcomes Mississippi State Rep. Fred Shanks for a no-holds-barred discussion on pressing state issues. They tackle the ongoing liquor distribution crisis, including warehouse backlogs, delivery delays, and calls from local stores like Spillway Wine and Spirits for a state of emergency to resolve it—potentially deploying creative solutions like extra manpower to clear orders and stem massive tax revenue losses. Fred updates on legislative wins, including funding for school resource officers, the Children's Promise Act for tax credits, mobile sports betting to boost PERS and generate over $100 million annually, and appropriations for Jackson's sewer system while killing harmful bills. They celebrate a major victory on the Pearl River widening project led by Pearl Mayor Jake Windham, promising flood protection and transformative development for Rankin County and Jackson. The conversation shifts to Jackson's controversial police chief hire, emphasizing the need for boots-on-the-ground enforcement over studies. Fred shares insights on Trump's pardon czar, Mississippi native Alice Johnson, her redemption story from life in prison to White House role, and efforts to restore voting rights for nonviolent felons. They dive into national politics, debating Stephen A. Smith's potential 2028 presidential run as a common-sense Democrat shaking up a weak bench against figures like AOC and Gavin Newsom. Plus, quick hits on I-20 repaving and casino revenue for education. Raw, insightful talk on Mississippi's challenges and wins!

    JPD'S NEW CHIEF HIRE WILL END IN MASSIVE WOKE DUMPSTER FIRE (Ep #1,163)

    In this episode of The Clay Edwards Show, host Clay Edwards dives deep into the controversial appointment of Dr. RaShall Brackney as Jackson, Mississippi's new police chief. Clay pulls no punches, predicting her tenure will erupt into a "five-alarm woke dumpster fire" before the year ends, citing her past in Charlottesville, Virginia—where she was fired amid low morale, leadership clashes, and accusations of ruling with an "iron fist." He breaks down criticisms of her reforms, like disbanding SWAT and narcotics units, her wrongful termination lawsuit alleging discrimination, and her perceived softness on crime, including calling gangs "social clubs" and focusing on "joy" in policing over aggressive tactics.   Clay also riffs on broader political chaos: Democrats' reactions to the State of the Union, their stance on immigration and "illegal aliens," and ironic defenses of certain files while shielding others. He touches on "woke" language shifts, brain drain in Mississippi, and the need for head-busting law enforcement in Jackson rather than hugs for thugs. Listener calls and texts add fuel to the fire, debating her credentials, JPD's dire state (including stripped patrol cars and officers unable to testify), and why Capitol Police might clash with her vision!   With Clay's signature unfiltered rants, humor, and no-holds-barred takes—calling out everything from furry Democrats to brainwashed liberals—this episode is a raw dose of reality on crime, politics, and Jackson's future. Tune in for the full fiery discussion!

    Should Mississippi Allow Liquor Stores To Open On Sunday's?

    In this segment of The Clay Edwards Show, I dive into the hot topic of Sunday liquor sales in Mississippi. Kingfish over at jacksonjambalaya.com has a story up about it—will we finally be able to buy wine and liquor on Sundays? It's been banned since booze was legalized back in 1966, but the House passed HB672 last week to allow it, and now it's up to the Senate. I'm kinda indifferent, honestly—some liquor stores say they don't want it because it might not boost sales, just spread 'em out thinner, hurting those big Friday and Saturday stockpiles for the weekend. They'd have to pay extra staff, and not every spot would benefit.   But here's my take: let's do it. Places that don't wanna open don't have to—stand on your principles, I respect that. I've wanted a bottle on a Sunday during football season plenty of times and didn't have one, probably for the best. I'm all for ditching these blue laws and letting the market decide. You don't want liquor on Sunday? Don't buy it. You can already get it at restaurants or bars on Sundays anyway—it never made sense that stores couldn't. Same with closing times: why force stores to shut early when bars stay open? I'm not saying bars should close early either, just pointing out the inconsistency.   If I were a state rep or senator, I'd vote yes—I'm about freedom and less government red tape, like a true conservative should be. Conservatism ain't always bible-thumping restrictions; it's the opposite—less meddling. What do y'all think? Should stores open Sundays or stay closed? Hit me up, I'd love your thoughts.

    Trump Torches Democrats In The Greatest STATE OF THE UNION Ever!! (Ep #1,162)

    In this episode of The Clay Edwards Show, host Clay Edwards shares hilarious stories from his weekend on the coast, including a fan chasing him down in Ocean Springs mistaking him for "Chad" and a generous older lady at the Hard Rock handing out gifts like candles and socks. He reflects on the show's broad appeal and thanks listeners for joining a high school dropout turned expert on Democrat death culture as he rants about politics and culture.   Clay gives the State of the Union a perfect 10/10, calling it the most presidential and longest ever, with highlights like honoring a 100-year-old WWII pilot who survived the longest dogfight in U.S. history against Russian pilots—a secret until 2002. He blasts Democrats for not standing during tributes to heroes and victims of crimes by illegal immigrants, spotlighting antics from Al Green (with his misspelled "Black People Aren't Apes" sign turning into "Black People Rent Apes") and Squad members disruptively chanting. Clay proposes an annual awards show for military, first responders, and civilian heroes to inspire patriotism over celebrity events.   The show heats up with callers debating disrespect at the SOTU, racism accusations, and liberal policies, leading to fiery rants on taking the country back, human trafficking ties to politicians like the Maine governor, and imperfect biblical figures. Clay addresses a controversial caller offended by his language, defending authenticity and fed-up conservatism.   He announces Pearl Day 2026 on April 25 with free performances by Daughtry and Hinder, and debates Sunday liquor sales in Mississippi, advocating for freedom while noting some stores' concerns. The episode wraps with Clay explaining his social media reset, trusting divine guidance, and teasing more unfiltered talk ahead.
