Red October | Best 60ish Seconds

And were down to eight teams vying for this year’s World Series title. Charlie looks back on the Phillies’ sweep of the Marlins and looks ahead as “Red October” continues with the Phils’ Division Series against the Braves starting today with game one at 6pm.

Charlie then pivots to politics and Kevin McCarthy’s removal as House speaker. Charlie calls the speakership the toughest job in Washington; he’ll be following along with everyone else to see how it all works out. Meanwhile, Rep. McCarthy’s ouster as speaker overshadowed Hunter Biden in court this past Tuesday where he pleaded not guilty to three felony gun charges. Charlie also notes the House impeachment inquiry against President Biden remains underway.

And in a surprise announcement, the Biden administration announced they were proceeding with border wall construction in Texas. Charlie says President Biden should acknowledge that Donald Trump was right, and that a course correction is needed for border security to keep this nation strong.

In closing, Charlie returns to baseball to celebrate and honor Orioles legend Brooks Robinson.
