On today's show, was Gov. Landry's trip to Greenland successful? You may hear that it was successful for Landry and his people, but there is another side to the story that Scoot shares with you. Lower Decatur businesses have been buried behind construction fences for months, so this Sunday they’re throwing a "Defend Decatur" block party with tons of great bands. Kirk Estopinal from Cane & Table and Steve Smith from Turtle Bay join Scoot to talk about the event, the impact on businesses, and why this stretch of the Quarter still matters. What’s your favorite spot on Lower Decatur, and are you making a point to support local businesses during construction chaos? Also, Scoot talks about the $1.776 billion "Anti-Weaponization Fund" that was established by the U.S. Department of Justice as part of a settlement agreement to resolve a $10 billion civil lawsuit filed by President Donald Trump and his sons against the Internal Revenue Service over the unauthorized leak of his tax records, which is said to be intended to pay off those pardoned from the January 6 insurrection. Finally, this is Memorial Day Weekend, a weekend when Americans go to the beach or have BBQs or crawfish boils. But it’s also a time to remember and pay tribute to the men and women who died serving our country. What should every parent tell their kids about Memorial Day Weekend? And do you think we’re so far removed from a World War and the Cold War that we’ve forgotten how much we owe those who died fighting for our nation?

Full Show 6/3/2026: How many Americans know what "Freedom of Speech" actually means?

On today's show, Scoot Rouses is expanding to Chalmette. A grocery store opening might not sound like major news, but the right store can change the rhythm of a neighborhood. How many stores do you go to each week to get everything you need? CBS News fired veteran "60 Minutes" correspondent Scott Pelley following a heated staff meeting where he directly confronted the program's new leadership. After the murder of conservative influencer Charlie Kirk, some people posted comments that were tasteless or offensive but still protected by the First Amendment. Lawsuit settlements for people punished over those comments have now reportedly topped $1.5 million. Do we agree that even ugly speech is still protected speech? Black Crowes lead singer Chris Robinson is facing backlash after shutting down a crowd chanting “USA! USA!” during a concert. Some fans booed, and some walked out. What did he say—and was he out of line? Senator Ted Cruz pushed back against Republican Representative Andy Ogles, who had posted, "Homosexuality has no place in America." Cruz, responding to the statement, told reporters, "For all of recorded history, homosexuals have been part of humanity," adding, "I'm quite libertarian by nature." I think the behavior of consenting adults is their business."
