Full Show For Thursday June 25 2026 From FOP Lodge 5

Kayal and Company broadcasts live from Pennsylvania FOP Lodge Number 5 in Northeast Philadelphia for a special remote broadcast raising money for the Families Behind the Badge Children's Foundation. We kick off the morning breaking down a disgusting fast-food horror story out of South Carolina where three Wendy's employees were arrested for serving a customer food pulled directly from the trash. From there, the crew shifts into heavy political coverage as President Donald J. Trump plays ultimate hardball with the Senate, vowing not to sign the bipartisan House Affordability Act until Congress passes the highly popular SAVE America Act to secure our elections. We check in on the modern media landscape as a brand-new Reuters digital news report shows social and video platforms officially overtaking traditional television and websites as primary sources of news. The crew spars over what this means for the future of factual information, the rise of algorithmic echo chambers, and how modern political organizations leverage these networks to bypass legacy media entirely. Plus, the show hits absolute peak radio theater as our very own producer Greg Stocker receives his official ordination live on the air from Newman Price, transforming forever into "Reverend Stocker" complete with a gold-trimmed frock and a minister's parking placard. During the final hour, Dawn Stensland takes the reins for a deeply moving, incredibly important conversation with Jasmine Hernandez, the survivor and widow of fallen Philadelphia Police Sergeant Jamie Roman, who was tragically killed in the line of duty following a 2024 traffic stop in Kensington. Jasmine shares her emotional healing process, the profound impact of the Families Behind the Badge foundation, and why she is personally gear-shifting to ride with "Team Roman" in the upcoming Bend to the Shore bike ride. We close out a monumental broadcast celebrating our listeners as the Kayal and Company fundraising page shatters its $15,000 goal live on the airwaves.
