The abortion pill remains legal for now after Friday’s Supreme Court decision, but access to the procedure in Florida has gotten very tight. On today’s program, we spoke with Dr. Staci Tanouye, board certified OB GYN, and Nick Allard dean of the Jacksonville University College of Law about abortion and what that means for women in Florida.

First Coast Success

Michael Balanky, founder and CEO of Chase Properties, sat down with Karen Brune Mathis of the Jax Daily Record to discuss how he started a real estate company here on the First Coast 30 years ago and how it has grown into a major concern.

May election

The election on May 16 will decide more than just the next mayor. AG Gancarski of Jax Today joined us today for a closer look at the candidates running for the City Council seats and property appraiser.

NFL draft

The NFL Draft is this week, and our own Josh Torres gave us a preview of where to watch it — and what to expect from the Jags.

The Jags, with the 24th pick, will pick outside the top 10 for the first time since the 2018 season.

If you are looking to show some DUUUVAL spirit, be sure to sign up for the NFL Draft Party on Thursday at Daily’s Place.
