Tamarques Porter, John Covington, and Dr. Chuck Lester

Episode Notes

My guests include MSCS board member Tamarques Porter. A lot has happened the last few months and as we put the wrap on another school year, I ask him how challenging it’s been and what he hopes to see moving forward. Next, speaking of challenges, crime continues to a major concern in the city and for the law enforcement community. Memphis Police Association VP John Covington joins me to discuss manpower issues and where morale is within the department as a whole. Finally, the story of a man who contracted COVID, was hospitalized for over 40 days on a respirator and ventilator and was very close to death. Rev. Dr. Chuck Lester has an inspirational story to share and a new book detailing his amazing story that he simply calls, A Real Time Miracle. That and more both on air and online Monday, 6 pm on 91.7 WYXR. Also, the wyxr app, Tunein, Facebook Live, YouTube and wherever you get your podcasts. It’s time to talk!
