Full Show 9/2/2026: It can be a struggle to take responsibility for alcoholism, but the help and support is out there

On today's show, Scoot continues the conversation about the death of the 17-year-old falling down stairs to his death inside the long-abandoned Plaza Tower. Threats to freedom of the press should never be taken lightly, especially when they come from the president or the federal government. If media outlets are being pressured over negative coverage of the president, shouldn't every American be concerned, even if they do not like the media? Should the government have more power to punish media companies it believes are unfair? Former Cowboys quarterback and CBS broadcaster Tony Romo is taking responsibility after drinking and driving, and says pain from his football career eventually led to an over-reliance on alcohol. Have you ever had to admit you had a problem with alcohol? What finally made you take responsibility, how did you get help, and how do you feel now? Then, Larry Rolling from Kelly Kicking Cancer joins Scoot to talk about their upcoming "Who’s Got Talent Gala" and the work they do raising money for brain cancer research and scholarships. Finally, Lauren Haydel from Fleurty Girl joins Scoot to talk about the “Legendolly” T-shirt fundraiser for Dolly Parton’s Imagination Library and how a local New Orleans shirt is helping put free books into the hands of kids who need them.
