Host Kristopher H. Bilbrey covers the big news that broke right at the end of the day on Friday, November 14, 2025, just as the weekend was beginning! The Breaking News: Indiana State Senate President Pro Tem Rodric Bray (R-Martinsville / District 37) issued the following statement: "Over the last several months, (Indiana State) Senate Republicans have given very serious and thoughtful consideration to the concept of redrawing our state's congressional maps. Today, I'm announcing there are not enough votes to move that idea forward, and the Senate will not reconvene in December." That news understandably upset many, from local and state politicos all the way to the White House. And this is just the beginning!
