  <itunes:subtitle>Join Host Kristopher H. Bilbrey as he welcomes Maricel Driscoll, a Democratic candidate for Judge of Delaware County Circuit Court 5, to the show. Driscoll has served as a Deputy Prosecutor in Delaware County, Indiana, since 2016. From 2013 to 2016, she was a Deputy Attorney General with the Indiana Attorney General’s Office. She earned her J.D. from Thomas M. Cooley Law School in 2012 and graduated from Ball State University in 2005. Licensed to practice law since 2012, Driscoll has experience in both civil and criminal law. Bilbrey and Driscoll discuss the campaign, Driscoll's views on Delaware County's judicial system, and her plans for the Court if elected. After the interview, Bilbrey took some time to discuss the recent interview on the MOST PROFESSIONAL political show 'The Boss Hogs of Liberty' with most of the Republican candidates running for Henry County Sheriff. As it goes, Henry County Sheriff John Sproles was allowed to run the show, and he made a fool of himself! But that's how they like it over there! #ThePoliticalSpotlight</itunes:subtitle>

  <description>&lt;p&gt;After taking a week off due to a funeral, Host Kristopher H. Bilbrey and the rest of 'The Political Spotlight' crew are back! There are many topics to cover—so grab your favorite snack and drink, sit back, and let's get started!&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;First, Bilbrey highlights several "records" that the City of Muncie finally released. The documents relate to Dustin Clark, Flatland Resources, and the Ridenour Administration's efforts to build the new Fire Station 5.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Next, Bilbrey moves on to the recent #SprolesWatch! Bilbrey shares the latest information he's gathered from multiple sources. This is a sensitive subject, and it will be handled carefully.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Staying on the topic of Henry County Law Enforcement for a moment, Bilbrey shares his thoughts on a video currently circulating about the Middletown and Knightstown Police Departments. There is a lot to consider with this topic, and it should be looked at with an understanding of what Indiana law says about many of the issues discussed in the video. Bilbrey explains it all in this episode.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Then, Bilbrey discusses the recent arrest of Jonathan Peternel, the adult son of Nathan Peternel, a mentor and close friend of Indiana's Lt. Governor, Micah Beckwith. Similar to the topic of Sheriff John Sproles, this could have been an issue that wasn't political. However, due to actions taken by those involved, it has become a matter of concern.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Finally, Bilbrey explores the possibility that Indiana Governor Mike Braun will call a "special session" of the Indiana General Assembly on Monday, October 27, 2025, solely to redistrict Indiana's Congressional Districts—something most Hoosiers neither want nor understand. Bilbrey covers it all here.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;This is definitely a show you DO NOT want to miss!&lt;/p&gt;
