Speaker 2: Alfred, this is out this morning. But I just thought
Speaker 2: it would just be great to have my good friend,
Speaker 2: my fraternity brother. He is actually the president, the president
Speaker 2: of my chapter Alpha Phive. Remember make us our Oppternity Incorporated.
Speaker 2: Multiple Emmy Award winning news anchor, first black male anchor
Speaker 2: in primetime in Birmingham. Worked at two stations in Atlanta
Speaker 2: on eleven Alive and Fox by Want and on a
Speaker 2: art frank Man, Good morning, Good morning, my brother Kevin.
Speaker 4: Hey, you man, here to be with you man today.
Speaker 4: It's Thursday, August sixth I'm Aard Franklin and Farfride's. Here's
Speaker 4: the story he's making the front page. There's a new
Speaker 4: development in the case in bombing Nolan Wells. Christine Warsley,
Speaker 4: Nolan's mother, says a professional misconduct complaint filed against her
Speaker 4: has now been closed. In a Facebook post, Warsley said
Speaker 4: the complaint only added to her family's pain as they
Speaker 4: continued searching for answers about her son's death. Attorney Bankrump
Speaker 4: called the complaint an attempt to intimidate her after she
Speaker 4: began publicly questioning what happened to Nolan. Nolan's body was
Speaker 4: filed of Mississippi's Horn Island two days after he disappeared
Speaker 4: during the fourth of July gathering. His cause of death
Speaker 4: is still unknown. One autopsy report from the Mississippi Medical
Speaker 4: Examiner has not been released, while a second independent autopsy
Speaker 4: supported by former NFL quarterback Colin Kaepernick, was inconclusive. Meanwhile,
Speaker 4: the Senate has confirmed doctor Erica Schwartz as the new
Speaker 4: Director of the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, giving
Speaker 4: the CDC its first permanent leader in more than a year.
Speaker 2: Now.
Speaker 4: Schwartz is no stranger to public health. The former Coast
Speaker 4: Guard Rear admiral served as Deputy Surgeon General during President
Speaker 4: Trump's first term and throughout the COVID nineteen pandemic. Still,
Speaker 4: her confirmation wasn't without questions. During her Senate hearings, Democrats
Speaker 4: pressed her on whether she would push back against Health
Speaker 4: and Human Services Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Junior over vaccine policy.
Speaker 4: Sports says she believes vaccines are safe and effective, but
Speaker 4: she avoided directly criticizing Kennedy. She now takes over the
Speaker 4: CDC as the agency works to respond to MEASOS outbreaks
Speaker 4: and other public health concerns, while also rebuilding after recent
Speaker 4: staffing cuts and leadership changes. And finally, this morning, if
Speaker 4: you know you know, Today marks three years since the
Speaker 4: now famous Montgomery Riverfront Brawl, also known as the Montgomery Brawl,
Speaker 4: the Alabama Sweet Tea Party, or simply you remember this
Speaker 4: stric key the chair incident. It all started over and
Speaker 4: illegally parked boat at Montgomery's river Front Park, where a
Speaker 4: black dock worker was attacked after asking a group to move.
Speaker 4: That's when bystanders stepped into help and the rest became
Speaker 4: Internet history, from the folding chair to the swimmer crossing
Speaker 4: the river. The viral video sparked countless means T shirts
Speaker 4: and plenty of laughs. The legal cases have since wrapped up,
Speaker 4: with the white voters pleading guilty to harassment and charges
Speaker 4: against the black co captain being dismissed. So today social
Speaker 4: media is once again celebrating was suffectually known as Chair teenth,
Speaker 4: a uniquely Alabama moment that has earned its place in
Speaker 4: black culture and internet history.
Speaker 2: Teeth everybody, So if you visiting part of the show,
Speaker 2: make sure you.

Speaker 1: Ryan Clark had already explained why he.
Speaker 5: Did not want to go on the air with Saves.
Speaker 5: Still in his defense, here's what he had to say.
Speaker 7: The one thing, and the only thing I took a
Speaker 7: fits to was her saying that with President Obama's father
Speaker 7: not being a part of his life, why would he
Speaker 7: want to consider himself black? As a black man. He's
Speaker 7: also a man that was that is married to a
Speaker 7: black woman, also a man who was raising two young
Speaker 7: black daughters. And I felt that that was disrespectful. Because
Speaker 7: of that, I was uncomfortable in working with her period.
