Marc Cox and Kim St. Onge open the second hour addressing listener text reactions comparing voluntary healthcare sharing models to government-mandated systems, before turning to the "Marc Cox Shortlist" to cover legal challenges to Alaska's dual-candidate Senate ballot and audio of U.S. Ambassador Mike Waltz detailing a diplomatic confrontation with Cuban delegates at the United Nations General Assembly. On the "St. Louis Morning Brief," the hosts examine Mayor Cara Spencer’s police compensation proposals, reporting from KSDK's Mark Maxwell on failed mediation between Spencer and Police Chief Robert Tracy over private salary subsidies, Missouri Secretary of State Denny Hoskins’ statewide voter turnout projections, and a $4.2 million settlement resolving federal civil rights litigation from the 2023 Bar:PM police cruiser crash. KMOX Sports Director Tom Ackerman joins to break down the Milwaukee Brewers clinching the World Series, evaluate the Cardinals' young pitching pipeline acquired in the Lars Nootbaar deal, and preview the St. Louis Blues facing the Boston Bruins. The hour concludes with "In Other News," highlighting staggering HOA fee increases in North Carolina and the stranded Villa Vie Odyssey residential cruise ship in Cambodia.
