BUD'S BLOG FRIDAY, JULY 29TH
We'll have a little Friday fun on "Good Morning Orlando" with this GMO Wants To Know question as the Discovery Channel wraps up "Shark Week" :
GMO WANTS TO KNOW: WHICH SCARES YOU MORE, SHARKS OR GATORS?
Let us know your answer by texting either "Sharks" or "Gators" to 23680. We'll keep track of the votes and give you the final tally at the end of Friday's show!
All aboard the "Biden Trainwreck Express"!
*You'll hear the President and key members of his economic team deny we're now in a recession, even though the numbers for the second quarter of the year show the economy
contracted for the second quarter in a row. That fits the long accepted definition of a recession, and, sorry, Joe, it's UNdeniable !

*Biden just got an earful from Communist Chinese dictator Xi, who told him that allowing Speaker Nancy Pelosi to visit Taiwan would be playing with fire and that the U.S. would get burned.
I've said on our show that Pelosi needs to make the trip, or it'll show weakness to the Chi-Coms and to Taiwan and our other allies. Will the President cave? Let's talk about it!
I'll share some sobering stories of folks who've had COVID but continue to have lingering and debilitating effects from what's called "Long COVID". They are struggling through a nightmare
that seems to have no end, but a new treatment for Long COVID is showing promise! Patients are being placed in a hyperbaric chamber where their bodies are flooded with oxygen.
Is this the cure for Long COVID? Are their risks involved in this treatment? Is it affordable for the average patient? We'll give you the latest.
The Biden administration, desperate to get two Americans out of Russian prisons and back to the U.S., is offering to release Russian arms dealer Viktor Bout from an American prison, if basketball star Brittney Griner and Paul Whelan are freed. This guy Viktor Bout is known as the "Merchant of Death" and with good reason. I'll make the case that giving him up is too high a price to pay for Griner's and Whelan's freedom and that this prisoner swap should NOT be done! Let's see if you agree with the Budman...or not.
Do you live in fear every day of your life? I don't and I sure hope you don't either. That said, a new survey shows more than half of all Americans live in almost constant fear for their safety, and that number skyrockets to 75% among young people! Are their fears warranted, or have we raised a new generation of linguini-spined wimps!? We'll talk about it!

We'll examine a new approach to stopping active shooters before they are able to commit mass murder. It's being developed at the Tyndall Air Force base in northern Florida and involves the use of robots and drones! Could this actually work? Our GMO team will talk it over, and, as always, we invite you to join the conversation! Just call 407 916 5400, text us at 23680 or use the new Talkback feature on the iHeartradio app!

We'll end Friday's show where we began, with Newsradio WFLA White House Correspondent Jon Decker joining us to talk about the new economic figures that show the U.S. is now in a recession, even though President Biden and his team are denying it.
