Jacksonville's Morning News Interviews

Listen to all of the latest interviews from Jacksonville's Morning News with Rich Jones Kristine Bellino on News 104.5 WOKV.

8/20 - JMN IN-DEPTH - Alberto Destarac

Alberto Destarac is a visionary - an ironic description, perhaps, given that he is blind. He is the first blind person to graduate from the US Naval Academy (2023), and in this interview he shares his experience transitioning from midshipman to entrepreneur, as blindness revealed a new career path.

8/20 - JMN IN-DEPTH - Annette Taddeo, candidate for Florida CFO

Annette Taddeo - Dem. candidate for Florida CFO (vs Rep. Blaise Ingoglia, incumbent), joins JMN to discuss primary results, and key issues she is campaigning on in her bid to be the Florida CFO, including data center actual costs, state resource auditing (like costs for Alligator Alcatraz), and resident affordability issues (housing, groceries, etc.).

8/20 - JMN IN-DEPTH - Prescription Affordaibility

Former SC Rep. Joe Cunningham – a member of the Pharmaceutical Reform Alliance - is advocating “most favored nation” legislation for US prescription prices. Affordability is a key modern issue, particularly for prescriptions, and using GLP-1’s as an example Americans are paying way more than most other countries. An XO from the President can be nullified – legislated savings are harder to deny, in this age of Big Pharma record profits.
