The State Auditor’s office sent Columbus a detailed request for contracts, receipts, and proof of services across multiple departments, and we unpack what that means. We break down why specific vendors were named, how procurement rules and sick leave policies come into play, and where council members face real legal exposure when approving claims dockets.
With Joe Max Higgins launching a new consulting firm and a noncompete extending to 2027, the LINK's next hire takes on outsized importance.
To round out the hour, local historian Rufus Ward steps into the studio with stories that still echo down the Tombigbee. From the chilling legend of the Eliza Battle steamship to footprints in the dust at Waverley and Native tales around Tibbee Lake, we hear some local ghost stories, one reaching back 800 years.
