(LISTEN): State Rep. Melanie Stinnett (R-Springfield) discusses prior authorizations on "Wake Up Missouri" | State Rep. Melanie Stinnett (R-Springfield) serves as the Missouri House Health and Mental Health Committee chair. One of the big issues she's been focusing on in health care is helping doctors with prior authorizations. Chairman Stinnett joined us live on 939 the Eagle's "Wake Up Missouri", telling listeners that testimony shows that Missouri physicians are spending 14 to 15 hours a week just on pre-authorizations. She adds that we then wonder why we can't get in to see a doctor. Chairman Stinnett tells listeners that this is a big challenge for providers and that it's a national issue. She also discussed her "Hope for Missouri Patients Act" during the live interview:

Are you your parents' fav child? Do you have a favorite? Lots of chatter over this topic today!

Research from Brigham Young University reveals that parental favoritism is real, with factors like gender, birth order and temperament playing a role. The study also found parents tend to favor daughters slightly more than sons. Dr. Sue Varma joins to break down the findings.

Today we talked about the racially charged lawsuit brought by a minority owned concrete subcontractor over construction flaws in the Obama Presidential Center. Costs have skyrocketed, timelines are ridiculously off target in this DEI-driven disaster. And…can we all agree, the finished product will be…well….downright uninspiring??

(LISTEN): U.S. Rep. Eric Burlison (R-Ozark) discusses EV charging stations and tariffs on "Wake Up Missouri" | A congressman who represents southwest Missouri's Ozarks wants to rescind federal funding for EV charging stations. Then-President Joe Biden (D) signed legislation into law providing the funding. U.S. Rep. Eric Burlison (R-Ozark), who represents Springfield, Branson and Joplin on Capitol Hill, describes the $8-billion plan to install EV charging stations nationwide as a boondoggle, saying only about 30 have been built. Congressman Burlison joined us live on 939 the Eagle's "Wake Up Missouri", telling listeners that this is wasteful spending and that the United States is $36-trillion in debt. Congressman Burlison's UNPLUG EVs Act has been filed. Congressman Burlison says subsidies like this increase energy costs. We also discussed DOGE and tariffs during the live interview. Congressman Burlison serves on the U.S. House Subcommittee on Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE). Some Democrats on Capitol Hill are concerned about how DOGE could impact the Department of Veterans Affairs (VA) and veterans. Others have privacy concerns. Congressman Burlison tells listeners that some Democrats are throwing tantrums:
