Good Friday afternoon, guys. I'm Jerry Miller and thank you kindly for joining us on the I Love Seville Show, the last program of the week. It's been a stellar week for content on the I Love Seville Network, the flagship of conversation and content in Charlottesville and Almar County. All we want to do is be the water cooler. We don't want to break the news. We just want to offer our commentary on the news and offer just some insight into how we

interpret the new cycle for that 24-hour period of time. That's all we are doing here. Take a look at the screen for today's headlines. You have us up on the group. I Love Sebo Group, Judo, well done. The I Love Sevo brand across all social media and podcasting platforms as the second most reach and influence in the Central Virginia region and the numbers and data and stats back it up. You can just do basic arithmetic across all platforms to know what I'm saying is 100% accurate. I have a lot we're going to cover, including two UVA Board of Visitor

meetings left and the Yon term, only two. Rumor Mill suggests a president is, a newly minted president is on the cusp of being fast-tracked. The rumor mill also suggests that there's Board of Visitors members,

one, maybe two, on the cusp of resigning. It would be an absolutely wild time if a president is fast-tracked, and then, ladies and gentlemen, members resign before Spamberger can fire them. We'll talk about that on today's show. We're also going to discuss the best neighborhoods for Christmas lights, a boutique hotel and fine dining coming to Birdwood Estate, three UVA football players in the transfer portal, and a hell of a lot more on today's program. I want to highlight Charlottesville Sanitary Supply, 61 consecutive years in business.

for Charlottesville Sanitary Supply. Charlottesville Sanitary Supply is your source for anything sanitary related. They have a mechanic on site which can fix your vacuums. They do water testing. They have a new division that's just launched Charlottesville Swimming Pool Company online at Charlotteswomenpoolcom that will help you brainstorm, consult, plan, strategize anything tied to a swimming pool, ladies and gentlemen. Charlottesville Swimming Pool Company. Are we live on YouTube?

We should be. Okay, fantastic. John Vermillion and Andrew Vermillion are just A-plus people, class act, trustworthy people, honest people. Very excited to do today's show. Judah Wickhauer is the man behind the camera. Judah Wickhauer is also a contributor to this fight and fair talk show. If you support the show, do us the favor of liking and sharing the show. does appear that YouTube is frozen as a heads up, Judah. I don't know if that's what you're seeing or not, but I am getting that message that YouTube is frozen. Let's go studio camera and then two shot. As we have a lot we're going to cover on the broadcast today. I want to talk and if you want to keep YouTube on the back burner until we get to the Loudoun County story, I'm fine with that

as well. But it does look like it needs to be restarted, my friend. Loudoun County, who what, when, where, why, Judah. This is from yesterday. And then I'm going to relay some commentary from a viewer and listener that I trust. And in this circumstance, I'm going to offer the viewer and listener anonymity because they asked for it. First, to who, what, when, where, why of the Loudoun County public school story. So the Loudoun County public schools could be at risk of losing federal funding after the DOJ claims. the school board didn't protect the rights of two Christian students of violating Loudoun's transgender access policy

when they said they felt uncomfortable. This was in March when a student assigned female at birth changed clothes in the boys' locker room while recording herself, himself, whatever you want to call the person. The boys were suspended for 10 days in order to submit. to a comprehensive student support plan, which, you know, I don't know what that would involve,

but essentially they're in trouble for saying they felt uncomfortable with a girl changing in the men's locker room and recording the event while in a men's locker room. Insanity. I'm going to offer the commentary from the viewer and listener. You check the feed and make sure this is not frozen. please. This is from the viewer and listener

who is requested and asked for anonymity. I ask the viewers and listeners and people that I trust, stakeholders in our community whether or not I can use their commentary on the record. If they say yes, I then followed up by saying if it's on the record, can I attribute it to you?

If it's off the record, should I attribute it to how should I position it? And that offers me the guidance on how to position content on this show while maintaining trust with people that provide information to us and then to you the masses in central Virginia. This particular person that I trust, who I will not utilize their name, says this. I'm watching your show from yesterday, Jerry. Two reasons why the Department

of Justice is bringing up Christianity. Number one, Loudoun County originally suspended a third Muslim boy, but they dropped their suspension on him. Why did they only maintain the suspensions on two Christian boys? Two, the DOJ brought up Christianity and religion because they're tying it to a freedom of religion and a freedom of speech constitutional right. This individual also says, interesting note, some of the lawyers representing the two Loudoun Boys were also involved in getting Almore County Public Schools to allow the turning point speakers. that Allison Spillman disagreed with. Lastly, Alamoa County Public Schools has essentially the same bathroom locker room policies

regarding gender identity as Loudoun County Public Schools. I found that compelling. I wanted to pass it on to you. I find the Loudoun County Public School System is leading the charge in the Commonwealth with its very far-left-leaning ideology. If there's a betchmark or metronome that Almore County Public Schools seems to be following Superintendent Matthew Haas, it's Loudoun County Public Schools. Important to emphasize that for the viewers and listeners who may or may not have students or children in the Almore County Public School system. I also want to highlight this on the program. Yesterday we talked performance metrics with Almar County Public Schools and Charlottesville City Public Schools.

I think it is more important that our superintendents and their respective leadership cabinets focus on the red flags of academic performance in that report released by the Virginia Department of Education, basically a report card from the Virginia Department of Education on the public school systems in the Commonwealth. We talked about that yesterday. There were a number of schools in Almaro County and a number of schools at Charlottesville City Public Schools, especially at the elementary school level that were extremely behind on performance standards, extremely behind. I would really like if our school systems returned to focusing on what we grew up schools doing, and that's teaching our kids and doing it in the most neutral way possible.

Those are my two cents. All right, a lot to cover on the broadcast. Judah Wickhauer, first headline, let's put those on screen. set the stage for the viewers and listeners with the first lower third, which I think the second and third lower thirds are also tied to it as well. We've got two UBA BOV meetings left in the Yon term. So, ladies and gentlemen, Glenn Yonkin's term is expiring, and he has a board of visitors that is appointed by him,

and those two meetings, ladies and gentlemen, are going to be pretty significant in how they influence and impact UVA. December 19th and January 6th, the rumor mills suggest that a president hire is being fast-tracked. These meetings are for the express purpose of discussing candidates for the position of president. They are going to be closed session meetings. Ladies and gentlemen, I'm telling you right now, I would not be surprised if this board fast-tracks a UVA president hire. The rumor mail is also suggesting

as you're rotating lower thirds on screen that at least one and maybe two board members are also nearing resignation. This would be a wild time if a board hires

a president. And then everybody leaves. And then the board members after making the hire resign, so Spamberger cannot fire them. That would be absolutely bonkers. I don't know how many people, I don't know how many would leave. If they all left, that would be truly newsworthy.

That is what the Rubber Mill is suggesting. The rumor mill is suggesting our trusted sources, what they've heard and passed on to us, the mill suggests a president very well may be hired before Spamberger is in office and then once the hires been made one, two, and maybe more board members will resign so they are not pink-slip by Abigail Spamberger. That scenario unprecedented in UVA history. There's only been one board member fired in the history of the UBA. University of Virginia, Bert Ellis.

Yeah. Bert Ellis, the only one. I want to put in perspective the wild times we are leaving in right now. And Judah asked the question, all fair. I think it's an important conversation for us to have. Why go through all the hoopla that the river mill is suggesting? Put your perspective into the microphone so the viewers and listeners can hear you. So first of all, why would you,

Why would the Board of Visitors try to fast-track this, get this done under the, you know, under the gun with Yonkin leaving, Spanberger taking over? As Jerry's mentioned, she could go in, start firing a bunch of board members and B-O-V members and then get rid of the UVA president. and make her own, you know, get her own board to find a president that they're agreeable with. But what I'm curious about is why would the board of visitors do that? And everyone else that's involved in the process, including, and especially, I think, the law firm that has been, or whatever firm has been hired to assist in the... Head hunting firm, not a law firm. Yeah.

in this nationwide search, how do they get roped into speeding up the process just to stick it to Spanbur? It seems a bit odd. Now, I understand the logic and reasoning there. Answer your questions and reply to your logic

and reasoning. Why would it be done? You're asking me to reply to my logic and reasoning? Exactly. because they want to get their person in because they're spiteful because they've got nothing better to do I mean it seems pretty keep going you're on it so it's just a pettiness thing it's a power grab I know you said historical significance historical significance of it's a public relations ploy to embarrass Spamberger it still just seems like a pettyness

this thing. If it's just politics, I thought that the Board of Visitors was largely above those things. I know that they as they get picked by the governor they're often on the same political

spectrum as the governor when he chooses them. But, you know, for the most part they're put in place because of their love of UVA, their desire to see it succeed. And making a half-ass decision on a UVA president doesn't seem like any of those

things. Two new special BOV meetings, one scheduled for Friday, December 19th from 1 to 3 p.m. and one scheduled for Tuesday, January 6 from 10 a.m. to noon, both at 2420 Old Ivy Road conference room 19. Both of these newly planned special meetings, as they're being communicated to the public, newly planned special meetings, the focus is to discuss the candidates for the position of present. that's probably the first one and then the second one if they get their candidate installed at UVA they get a pizza party with Twinkies and a six pack of beer ladies and gentlemen if the rumor mill which is is coming from very reliable people suggest that a hire is going to be made appointees and then board members resigned before Spamberger is able to fire them. That leaves Governor-elect Spamberger in this dubious position. That position is one of your first task on the job is cleaning house whoever is left on the board because of malfeasance and

malpractice, and then firing the UVA president to only conduct a new search and hire another one. The reason the Yonkanites benefit there is the egg on the face from a PR standpoint for Spamberger, especially early in her term. They would have, they would force her hand. and forcing her hand that early in the term is one that will yield Lucy I've got a lot of explaining to do and that's the time we live in power grab political ploy

chess to see if Spamberger is willing to play make the checkmate move or to Spamberger because she's so newly and freshly minted choose to just sit back for a while to see if the new hire does in fact pay dividends. I cannot wait to see what happens. But when you call new meetings with the word special in the announcement,

special meetings for December 19th, which is less than a week before Christmas, and many of these people do not live in Charlottesville, the very large majority of them do not live in Charlottesville. Yeah. And then when you call another special meeting, two weeks, not even two weeks later, no, not even three weeks later, January 6th, right?

That's what, 18 days later? Mm-hmm. You know something's cooking. Follow it closely because this will dominate the new cycle. Ladies and gentlemen. Anything else you want to add you to Wickham? William McChesney, thank you for watching the program. He says this crap that's going on with Loudoun County is what I would call voyeurism.

Voyeurism is what he calls what's going on in Loudoun County. Holly Foster and Henriko, welcome to the program. Rob Neal, watching the program. Rob Neal's a James Madison university graduate, and he is on his way to Oregon to support the Dukes. Rob Neal, I want you to hear this on the show, and I will say this to you in person. When I see you next time, I am a huge fan of the Dukes right now. I have no issue with JMU getting in the college football playoff.

Just because UVA did not get in and JMU took the Waho's place does not mean I have any bitterness whatsoever for James Madison University. If there's a team I'm rooting for in the college football playoff, it is JMU because they are from the Commonwealth of Virginia. and they are the Rudy, you know, the Rudy story, the underdog story. Go Dukes, go J.MU. Anyone that's in Wahoo Nation should be rooting for JMU. I sincerely, sincerely mean that.

Next headline, Judah Wickhara, what do you got? Next, we have the Darden School. And I do want to hit one other thing before I get to. giving props before I get to the Darden School story. Tom Ridley, the VP of Sales at Evergreen, also a partner at Evergreen builders. Tom Ridley, he deserves some attention as a James Madison University graduate,

a football player at JMU. Tom Ridley. Tom Ridley, you get some props. Evergreen's come in the new cycle on this show with 303 Alderman Road. But I also want to highlight Tom Ridley as a JMU graduate who's very much

watching this football team in the college football playoff. I wish Tom Ridley and his team some luck as well, the VP of Sales at Evergreen. All right, next headline Judah Wickhauer, Darden. Darden School of Business is once again nationally ranked.

The number one public MBA program in the country according to the 2025, 2026, Poets and Quants ranking. The third consecutive year, the Darden School has come out on top among public schools and the public's annual rankings, a composite of five leading evaluations, including U.S. News and World Report, the Financial Times, Bloomberg Business Week, LinkedIn, and the Princeton Review. So here's basically what's happening.

U.S. News and World Report, the Financial Times, Bloomberg Business Week, LinkedIn, and Princeton review are all giving Darden significant props. And then this one entity, Poets and Quants, aggregates all this national attention and these national rankings into one data set. And that one data set highlights the fact that Darden, for the third consecutive year, is the number one public, full-time MBA program and the entire nation. Darden School also retained its number five ranking among all MBA programs public and private. You're looking at literally one of the best of the best, ladies and gentlemen. Full-time MBA class of 2025 from Darden has maintained a median compensation package of $175,000 base salary plus a $30,000 signing bonus. Darden School, you get a degree from Darden, your base compensation, $175,000, and a $30,000 signing bonus.

earlier in the week we talked about UVA graduates earning 53% more wage than the rest of Virginia. Another metric comes out. This one for MBAs, 175,000 base compensation plus 30,000 signing bonus. This shows you the significance of what the UVA degree means, and many of these University of Virginia students,

I'm not saying all of them, but many of these University of Virginia students, students are choosing to return to Charlottesville, Central Virginia, to run a business or work from an internet service provider at their house while working for a big firm out of market. This is without question a factor of driving up costs of living locally, and it's a benefit for the economy. It's also without question, gentrifying people out of the community as well. William McChesney asked the question, you're rooting for JMU, Jerry.

Does that mean you would root for Virginia Tech? and the answer is absolutely no, I would not. Routing for JMU is very different as a Wahoo than rooting for Virginia Tech. JMU is not UVA's biggest rival. Virginia Tech is. I will never root for the Virginia Tech Hokies. I will root for the JMU Dukes.

The JMU Dukes are the Cinderella story of the college football playoff. And I'll take it a step further. I would even like to see JMU figure out a way to get into the Atlantic Coast Conference. JMU into the ACC would make the ACC, in my opinion, stronger. JMU is going to have to figure out the fact that it's in an inconsequential television market. That's its primary barrier of entry into the ACC. JMU is figuring out the football stadium by expanding the stadium.

It's alumni base and its fan base travel to home. and away games. It's performance on the gridiron. Legitimately, you can say, is the best in the Commonwealth this year during the college football playoff. J.MU's issue is the TV market, and the revenue share associated with contracts with the conference and a provider like ESPN. So I don't know how JMU figures that out. Next headline. What do you got, Judah, a car? Next, we have the best neighborhoods for Christmas lights. You know, and To further add on the JMU story, and then we'll get to the Christmas Light story, if I was JMU, I would figure out a way to solve the television rights issue

by creating some kind of other profit center for the conference. And boosters, the Rob Neals of the world, I'm sure you're brainstorming ideas like that. The Tom Ridley's of the world, I'm sure you're brainstorming ideas like that. Because until they get into power football, they're going to lose the same. signettys of the world, the Chesneys of the world, and their top talent, their top football players to the transfer portal and to bigger contracts. And we all know that's the case. The Christmas Light Story, where I grew up in Williamsburg, there were pockets of neighborhoods that everyone in the community knew. This is where you drove

your family, you know, Ford Explorer or the family Toyota, the family Volvo, to watch and see Christmas lights. There was a Reddit thread that was talking about this recently on the Charlottesville subreddit and one of them even has a list of addresses. Nice. That list

to addresses. 1548 Valcrest Lane, 1214 Long Street, 1226 Agne Street, 988 Woodlands Road, 3036 Copper Knoll Road, 1480 Birchcrest Lane, 1715 Alder Road, 2319, Traversio Lane, 2425, Summit Ridge Trail.

But they're not aggregated in one spot. Right. I had a fantastic time with front of the program, Curtis Shaver, the founder, the owner of Peloton Station, and they organized a Christmas Lights bicycle ride. And we met at Peloton Station. We had a couple of beers. We ate some fried pickles, and we got on bicycles,

and we rode all over town looking at Christmas lights. It was genuinely one of the most fun evenings I've had in my 25 years in Charlottesville. A Christmas lights bicycle ride around town where Curtis had a dozen or so homes on a list for us to go enjoy lights. Some of us, maybe I was included, maybe I was not included, had a flask of whiskey on our person. And we're staying warm with some bourbon or some scotch, some whiskey, while looking at lights and peddling schwins or treks or specialized. bicycles all around the city. It was awesome. Where's the neighborhood for the Christmas lights? And I'll take it a step further. Has Christmas spirit waned?

I'll take it a step further. Is some of the collateral damage of COVID, less Christmas spirit, less chutzpah, less community? We understand that volunteering has diminished since COVID. We know that. We talk about, you've broken this news so many times on the show. Was it first night? Yeah. The New Year's Eve celebration on the downtown mall? Yeah, that's been a kerfuffle for quite a few years, and hopefully it'll get worked out soon. And prior to COVID, it was thousands of people on the mall. Thousands. Now there's nothing. Yeah. Right? Is the Christmas spirit a collateral damage of COVID? I don't think so.

How about this question? Is the Christmas spirit and the fact that it's not amplified like it once was a cause and effect of a vulnerable economy and less money to spend? Is it a byproduct of Charlottesville? And the transient nature of the community has become post-COVID. So are we losing neighborhoods that, put up the lights. I've been over to, I believe it's Mountain View Street, over by the former Mooses by the Creek. Are you aware of that one? They've always had like massive amounts of Christmas lights going up, but I haven't been by there recently, so I don't know if they're still doing that. I do know that, and I think you mentioned it in the, from the article, Long Street address. I think you said it was 1214. That place is, I've been seeing those lights

for the last week or so, and they are fantastic. The Christmas lights are just part of like the season. Yeah. It's not the same volume. Dogwood Parade, not the same. Fourth of July parade, not the same. First Night, Virginia, gone. Nonprofits highlighting volunteerism is gone. Some sociology, anthropology experiment needs to be done. These few years post-COVID, there's not the same spirit or hutzbar community.

It's just, you see it, you feel it. you feel it John Blair watching the program um did I not comment John Blair says last month that a nuclear explosion would go off regarding the B.O.V. UVUVA situation. John Blair says

here we are. John Blair did comment. He's on this like whites on rice. Okay. We will live in a wild and unprecedented time. if Yonkin's board hires a president in the next three weeks, three and a half weeks,

and then members who make the hire resigned before Spamberger fires them. Then forcing Spamberger's hand to either fire the president or sit back and watch to see if the president was the right pick. And a lot of ways, if this happens,

Yonkin's board will partially could castrate Spamberger of some power John also says do you miss the lights over by the old Moose's Cafe that one house was as good as it got

I know that that's the one that I was talking about on Mountain View Street yeah that was the one that we've been there we've taken pictures there brought family there when they came into town if they're no longer doing that

that's really a shame I believe that house was asking for donations outside it's sidewalk to help cover the utility bill costs at one time. Can you imagine the utility bills on that house by Muses? No. Astronomical. My wife put the Christmas lights

up around our house on Black Friday. This wonderful woman was out on a 10 or 12 foot ladder hanging Christmas lights in 30 degree temperature on, no, did she do it? She did it before Thanksgiving. She legitimately

did it before Thanksgiving because they were up and hung before my in-laws came and visited us. So they were definitely beat the 30-degree attempts. They were up weeks before. That was frigid. She was wearing her, what's the fancy, what's the jacket? She has? The puja, parja?

Some kind of, I forget what it's called. Neither you nor I is ever going to guess that. Yeah. Well, if she's watching, she'll let me know what it is. Anyway, next headline, what do you got? Oh, let's see. Cursever's watching the program.

He says, oh, he says, that house is not doing it, Judah, by Mooses. And maybe that's why John Blair says, do you not miss those lights? Yeah. So, Curtis, thank you. That was the impression that I got from. He says, that house is no longer doing it. He said, we did the bike tour last night. We rode by it last night.

That house by Mooses is not doing it. He says, the Woodhaven neighborhood had the best volume of houses lit up. That's from Curtis Shaver, who did the bike ride. So in front of the program, one of the key members of this family, Curtis Shaver, is telling the viewers and listeners, if you want a neighborhood to enjoy Christmas lights, it's the Woodhaven, Woodhaven neighborhood. The best volume of houses lit up right now is in the Woodhaven neighborhood. That's where you take the Wickhowers.

Once the family comes in town, I'll remember Woodhaven neighborhood. And your niece, who's how old, two or three? She's, I think, four now. Try to get a Christmas photo with Santa with her and you in it that we can post on the show. Can you do that? Maybe. The viewers and listeners would love to see Judah with Old St. Nick. Where is there, where do you get your photo taken with Santa these days?

Winter Wonder. Winter Wonder. At the Borset. I believe we've gone to the Winter Wander the last few years. The most authentic Santa Claus, Old St. Nick I've ever seen at Winter Warner. It is Santa Claus. it is Santa Claus Jason Noble's watching the program

his photo on the screen, one of the key members of the family he says I'm just joining the show but did you see that Mike Pruitt has stiff competition in the 5th District with Tom Perry Yellow we did see that. We analyzed that on yesterday's program Mr. Noble if you didn't catch yesterday's show we analyzed the cause and effect

of Tom Pruitt's announcement and I'll put it in a nutshell for viewers and listeners that did not watch or listen to yesterday's show. Tom Perryiello running for the 5th District as a Democratic That means Mike Pruitt has competition in the Democratic primary. Mike Pruitt versus Tom Perriello. Tom Perry-Ello is going to beat the brakes off of Mike Pruitt,

and it's no shade on supervisor of Mike Pruitt of the Scottsville District. He is intelligent, he's well-spoken, he's well-dressed, he's a military veteran. He comes from a blue-collar background. One of his parents' mechanic, I believe, his dad, he's very electable. He's young, he's ambitious, he's hungry, he's very electable. But no one's going to beat Tom Peryl on a Democratic primary. And that's why Pruitt's competition, three other candidates that were Democrats, all within 72 hours dropped out of the race. I believe there's one more that's still in it, but I don't take my word for that.

Mike Pruitt said I'm going to fight to the very end. The reality is my crystal ball, and my crystal ball is very accurate. My crystal ball, periello, beats the brakes off of Pruitt in the Democratic primary, goes toe-to-to-toe with either McGuire or Bob Good. Good wants to get back in the mix and challenge McGuire and some kind of Republican primary. Didn't they do, what do they do during COVID that got Rigglement ousted? It was like a drive-by voting. Yeah, they took the vote so far away from the area

where most of the, most of Riggleman's approval and supporters were were living. Perrello keeps Mike Pruitt on the board of supervisors for his full term. If Perry L. L. had not entered the race,

Pruitt could have beaten the Republicans, McGuire or Good. And if he had beat McGuire or Good, he would have been in Congress. Now, Perryiello very well could win, which means Pruitt finishes his term on the board. And when Pruitt finishes his term on the board,

board. He will be joined by progressive, if not activist, Sally Duncan, who beat Dave Sharif and the Jack Jewett District. He will be joined by Ned Galloway, who's coming on real talk a week from today with Supervisor Jesse Rutherford, Supervisor Tony O'Brien, and Nad Galloway on our network Friday at 10, 15 a.m. That gives them three votes. Then they will try to seduce and recruit Fred Missal, who just won the Samuel Miller district seat by beating the brakes off of Scott Smith, and that foursome, Missile, Galloway, Pruitt, and Duncan will control the board for years to come and potentially

expand the development area from its current 5%. We will, in this next two to three years, see my prediction, significant policy change as it applies to housing and density and the expansion of the development area. You heard it here on the I Love Sebel Show first. Next headline, Judah Wickhauer, what do you got? Let's see. Three players enter the portal so far.

The transfer portal is hitting UVA. I'm not worried about this necessarily because the players that Virginia's lost to the portals right now are not super crucial outside of starting quarterback Jasan Pravard. But right now, you've lost. Miki, Buchanan, a 6'4, 245-pound, edge rusher, who will finish his UVA career with 20 tackles, two tackles for a loss, and one pass breakup. The junior has three years of eligibility remaining.

You lose your starting quarterback, corner, corner, corner, just on Pravard, and you lose a reserve offensive lineman to Sean Wyatt of Richmond. This is why I'm not as nervous of the portal, because the alumni base, in fact, I was having this conversation in the locker room yesterday, standing in the showers. We were speaking

over the curtain. Me and another gentleman who I won't utilize his name, we were talking about the portal, a very well-connected guy. And we both were in agreement that this transfer portal situation is in the best benefit of the University of Virginia because the

alumni base is extremely wealthy. So Virginia's ability to buy players essentially, buy players is at a more likely scenario than in other schools. This roster a nearly $30 million roster. I would imagine the football roster for campaign 2026 will be even more expensive than the nearly 30 million they've spent this year. And I'm very curious to see if Chandler Morris

comes back for a sixth season because the money that Chandler Morris can get $1.3 million playing for UVA this year, that's probably money he's not going to get playing football anywhere else, including the National Football League. So reload, rebuild and reload. Oak Valley Custom Hartscapes. Hartscape provider guys locally is Oak Valley Custom Hartscapes. They will take your dream for a hardscape. They will make it a reality. Oak Valley Custom Hartscapes, the return on investment in Hartscapes at your house or your business is not just financial. It's return on quality of life and return on experiences, ladies and gentlemen. Deep Throat's got some comments. Number one in the family, put his photo on screen, please. He says this.

on the Virginia Department of Education report card, listen, I am not going to ban for the quality or resource efficiency of Charlottesville City Schools. That said, it seems like the report cards correlate more with student demographics than with how the school operates. And he says what they did with Denver Wrigelman was a firehouse primary.

That's exactly what it was called. Deep Throat, thank you. They did a drive-by voting in a firehouse primary. Yeah. That's exactly what they did. They basically took it away from Riggleman because he officiated in a same-sex wedding. Yeah, that was crazy.

And Riggleman, if you consider any of the candidates on the Republican side, is the best one possible. I'd love they still had Riggleman. There's nothing good about Bob Good. And John McGuire is missing inaction as MIA. John McGuire is, you know, the side is, you know, I was going to choose something inappropriate. but how about running shotgun

with Donald Trump? Okay, there we go. Anything else that you would like to add on the show, Judo Wikara? Nothing else I can think of right now. Friday edition of the show. Keep your money local in this community, ladies and gentlemen. Please, Vanessa Parkhill,

local, cultural, political leanings are often associated with a more secular lifestyle. More secular may lead to less Christmas spirit or the happy holidays vibe. often does not evoke traditional Christmas cheer. That's her response to the lack of Christmas lights. I want you to drive around town and ask yourself, is it the same amount of volume of lights that we had prior to COVID?
