Welcome to Flyover Country with Scott Jennings. If you‘ve followed my commentary on tv or newspapers, you know I‘m a conservative — but sometimes I like to zig when everyone else is going to zag. You‘re going to hear podcast versions of my columns. You‘re going to hear me talk at length about some of the stuff we do on TV. You‘re also going to hear me talk to guests and other panels to have insightful conversations about the news. Most of the time though, you‘re just going to hear me giving you the news and giving you my commentary. I‘ll always tell you the truth, and I‘ll always be happy to engage with our listeners.

The House is in disarray. More than two weeks after the 'hateful eight' led a revolt to oust Speaker McCarthy, House Republicans have yet to elect a new Speaker.

Of course this all comes at a time when the US must step up to assist Israel and Ukraine with new funding. This week, President Biden spent time in Israel - giving us some good, some bad and some really bad. Oh, and don't forget, we are just a few weeks from election day here in Kentucky. We've got it all covered on today's Flyover Country - listen now!
