  <itunes:subtitle>Join Host Kristopher H. Bilbrey as he welcomes Rachel Parham, a Republican candidate for Henry County Clerk, to the show. Parham is a lifelong Henry County resident and currently serves as Chief Deputy Clerk of Courts in the Henry County Clerk's office, where she has worked for the past 10 years. She is now running for the office of the Henry County Clerk as a Republican. Bilbrey and Parham discuss the campaign, Parham's views on Henry County's current state, and her plans for the Clerk's office if elected.

BREAKING NEWS: During the candidate interview, we learned that a suspect attempted to enter the White House Correspondents' Association Dinner. President Trump and the First Lady, along with many others, were escorted out of the event by the Secret Service. One officer was shot; however, his Kevlar vest prevented serious injury, and one suspect was taken into custody! #ThePoliticalSpotlight</itunes:subtitle>
