Friday's Marc Cox Morning Show opened under flash flood warnings across southern Missouri and Marc's confession of falling for a virus while exposing a dishonest attack on conservative candidate Bill Igel. From there, the show tracked a dramatic overnight escalation with Iran — Gulf Arab allies joining U.S. strikes for the first time in decades, a reported Iranian assassination plot against President Trump, and Heritage Foundation's Jim Carafano explaining why the regime may be nearing collapse from within. The Tyler Robinson case dominated throughout the morning, with damning new testimony and evidence leaving Candace Owens' conspiracy theories in ruins and Marc defending widow Erica Kirk against baseless attacks. Kim on a Whim and the St. Louis Morning Brief delivered a strong Trump economy alongside a troubling 50-year-low labor force participation rate, Governor Kehoe's new Bentley and Mason's Law, and an activist judge's Illinois gun ban ruling Marc predicts the Supreme Court will strike down. Congressman Eric Burlison brought the Capitol Beat with a full-throated defense of the SAVE Act and pointed concerns about Senator Mitch McConnell's health. Marc closed the week urging every Missouri listener to download his voter guide at 971talk.com and vote yes on Amendment 4 and Amendment 5 before the August 4th primary. Straight talk, common sense, and faith-and-family values — that's The Marc Cox Morning Show on 97.1 Talk, back Monday at 5 a.m.
