Part 1: Ray and Joe are joined by Wayne Parry and gubernatorial candidate Shawn Moody. They start out by talking about the fees that are killing businesses. NH is a business friendly state and Maine needs to get back to that model. The conversations heads to kids and work ethics. Shawn doesn’t see the need for work permits. It should be between the parents and employers. The conversations turns to role models. Society has changed what classified as a role model.
Part 2: The boys briefly talk about Ranked Choice Voting.
Part 3: Ray asks Shawn about how he plans on reaching the average voter. Shawn replies it all boils down to economics. Starting with the youth and getting them into a trade and off of the couch. They discuss later school starting times and the Scarborough recall. Joe doesn’t like it when you can just willy-nilly recall because you disagree with what you are saying. He feels that you won’t get good people to run and be true to their beliefs for fear that they will be recalled. Ray gets on his soapbox regarding recalls.
Part 4: Shawn gives his opinion on the recall efforts and how un-democratic it is to go after someone for free speech. Shawn gives his vision about kids, which is the future of Maine. We need to give them the tools to make their way.
