The Scoot Show with Scoot

This hour, A federal judge has blocked an effort to restore Donald Trump's name to the Kennedy Center, triggering an immediate decision by the venue's board to shut down the historic arts center indefinitely. Texas quarterback Arch Manning has apologized after laughing during a discussion of an AI-generated video that falsely showed coach Steve Sarkisian slapping ESPN reporter Holly Rowe. Manning says his reaction was insensitive. Was this simply a young guy reacting badly to an absurd fake video, or should athletes be more careful about how they respond to content like that - especially if it shows violence towards women?

Whoa nah! Karl Rove says he's gonna vote for a Dem for first time in 30 years; Is AI going to become TOO HUMAN and kill us all? Bad 24 hours for White House's legal battles; Is Sydney Sweeney's sexy Insta ad really that bad for women's sports?

Sydney Sweeney's near-nudity in a racy new ad for a sports betting app is said to be setting back women's sports - but nobody can explain quite how

Trump can't scuttle mail in voting before the midterms and the big mean judge says he can't co-opt JFK's memorial for his own branding purposes. Gonna be a lot of ketchup spilled in the White House tonight

Is AI becoming too human? What's the real threat from artificial intelligence?

Matt Rosen is an AI expert and CEO & Founder of Alleta - he says Scoot's fears of AI becoming too human are not the threat Scoot is making them out to be

Sure it's an obscure downballot race - but what does Karl Rove's pledge to cast a vote for a Democrat in the fall say about the larger political moment we find ourselves in?

Whatever you think about Trump's $5,000 bribe to vote for his party, Democrats have never attempted anything like it

What if we started this show the way the Saints started yesterday? Why do the refs hate the Saints so much? Is it crazy to believe in NFL conspiracy theories? Saints' loss to Lions as a metaphor for life; Kevin Todd cleaned up last week; can he do it again? What was your best memory of the Municipal Auditorium?

The city has received an extension on the deadline to spend FEMA money to rehab the Municipal Auditorium - which begs the question, what was your favorite show there?

From TheSportsBrokers.com, pick guru Kevin Todd's hot betting tips paid big dividends last week - and this time, he's making an offer you cannot refuse for this week

Does the NFL really find ways to make small-market teams lose against teams that would have a more profitable presence in the post-season?

When Saints Coach Kellen Moore decided to go for 2 points and the win in overtime instead of settling for the almost automatic chance of kicking an extra point and tying the game again - he was making a type of decision many people have to make in their daily lives.

Is anyone really surprised that the Saints had to give up a scoop and score touchdown because the refs made a bad call?

The Saints were in fine form by the end of the 4th quarter - but what took so long?

Today marks 25 years since September 11th, the deadliest terrorist attack on American soil. What do you remember about that morning? Where were you, what did you see, and how did it change the way you looked at the country? And 25 years later, is America stronger, more united, and more secure or less? Did 9/11 change us in ways we are still trying to understand? Pittsburgh Steelers quarterback Aaron Rodgers critical of Trump declared that the Make America Great Again (MAGA) movement is effectively a sham because President Donald Trump has failed to deliver on his campaign promises.

President Donald Trump sparked intense controversy during his speech at a Republican midterm convention in Dallas, Texas, by promising a $5,000 cash payout to every American adult—on the strict condition that Republicans win control of both the House and Senate in the upcoming November midterms. Dubbed the "Trump Dividend," he compared the proposed distribution to a successful corporation sharing its profits with stockholders. The announcement immediately drew widespread fierce backlash from legal experts, Democrats, and fiscal conservatives who have openly characterized the conditional financial offer as an unmitigated, blatant voter bribe. The FCC is explaining why it is going after broadcast networks and not cable news networks, arguing that broadcasters have special responsibilities because they use the public airwaves. The FCC says some networks are violating the public’s trust, but is that really true? Is this about accountability, or is it government pressure on media companies over coverage the president does not like?

This hour, Scoot celebrates the 90s grunge movement, as today is the anniversary of the release of Nirvana's "Smells Like Teen Spirit." Kevin Todd with The Sports Brokers is back on Scoot On The Air to help you win big money!

On today's show, NOLA Cannabis Co. is opening a new Bourbon Street cannabis facility. What will a three-story dispensary mean for New Orleans and for the French Quarter? Could LSU really be kicked out of the SEC? It sounds almost impossible, but SEC leaders are now expected to discuss whether the conference could take that extraordinary step as the fight over Lane Kiffin, LSU, and player eligibility keeps getting uglier. Officials added one second back to the clock, allowing Michigan to pull off a 13-12 win over Western Michigan on a game-winning Hail Mary. President Trump has arranged for an unusual Republican convention in Dallas to try to stop a blue wave this November; as you might expect, he’s making it all about himself. As the anniversary of 9/11 approaches, President Trump is again telling his version of being near the Twin Towers and being rushed to safety by firefighters. Fact-checkers and past reporting have raised serious questions about that account. Is that stolen valor, or just a tall tale?

Scoot asks if you would want to relive your old high school days.

With the number one overall draft pick in Heaven, God takes Mike D; Could LSU really be kicked out of the SEC? Iran testing new ballistic missiles - not great news for US, allies

It's not just the AI slop portraying him as the Green Lantern - the President really is obsessed with coming to the rescue with great feats of exaggerated heroism and bravery

Despite Trump and Hegseth’s constant assurances that Iran is totally destroyed and powerless, they have developed new weapons and are saying in no uncertain terms that they will use them to take pre-emptive action

Pancreatic cancer is known for being painful to endure and hard to treat - and often those afflicted succumb quickly.

This week, we’re focusing on two major stories: the Lindsay Clancy mistrial and a shooting that broke out in a Minnesota apartment building, leaving two dead and others injured, including police officers. First, we’ll hear real-time reactions to confusing and somewhat chaotic jury deliberations that ended the controversial trial of Lindsay Clancy, a Massachusetts mother accused of strangling her three children. Clancy’s legal team argued that she suffered from the rare postpartum psychosis disorder, and her story opened up a national conversation about postpartum disorders. Before we get to the Clancy case, we also have updates in two cases related to well-known musicians.

The Tigers have a roster rebuilt through the transfer portal, a new quarterback in Sam Leavitt, and a huge test right out of the gate. Does No. 11 LSU beat Clemson, or is this the kind of game where a brand-new team still needs time to figure out how they win? Scoot also talks about the SEC filing a federal lawsuit against LSU, head football coach Lane Kiffin, and athletic director Verge Ausberry over the university's coordinated push to roster former NFL players. Shane, manager of Tiger Town Tavern in Clemson, South Carolina, to share what the mood in the town of Clemson ahead of the big showdown in Death Valley tomorrow night is like. Jelly Roll is facing backlash from some fans after being more open about his politics and making jokes about President Trump.

On today's show, Gloria Steinem, the trailblazing journalist and pioneering leader of the second-wave feminist movement, has died at the age of 92, which prompts Scoot to get into the conversation about if the men/women's wage gap is a myth and if women should have to register for Selective Services just as men do. Vice President J.D. Vance says he is trying to do God’s work as much as possible, and with tensions rising in the Middle East, some Christians believe current events may be signs that we are moving closer to the end times. Do you believe we are living through biblical prophecy, or do people see the end of the world in every generation when the news gets scary enough? Landscaping is now being listed as one of the most dangerous jobs in America. What are the other most dangerous jobs, and what makes a job dangerous beyond the obvious risks? Is your job dangerous in a way other people may not realize?

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.
