MPB has local call in shows every weekday 9 - noon where you can ask an expert about money, health, gardening, and more. We’re the legal show!

Tuesdays, following our over-the-air broadcast, you can hear Southern Remedy: Relatively Speaking with Dr. Susan Buttross on MPB Think Radio at 11am Central.

Our guest handles the most phone calls of all our guests – he can speak on Special need, estate planning, elder law. Lots of topics that are confusing but are relative to the daily lives of our listeners. Rick Courtney is back on the show. Past podcasts with Rick as our guest.

Do you need an absentee ballot? To verify eligibility for absentee voting, Mississippians may utilize the Secretary of State's Y'all Vote website, which includes an Absentee Voting FAQ and Step-by-Step Guide to Absentee Voting, or contact their county Circuit Clerk. If eligible, ballots will be provided upon request by your Circuit Clerk. But there are lots of reasons you can vote early by absentee voting.

We know how creative Mississippians are. The Sectary of State’s office has an artwork submission competition to design the next “I Voted” sticker.

If you “blow the whistle” what could happen? We’ll learn about false claims against the government and whistleblowing laws with guest attorney Rick Davis from Shelton Davis LLC.

Today’s Legal Terms on In Legal Terms are: Qui Tam, Whistleblower, Relator

Our legislators are thinking about whistleblowing laws for Mississippi. Last year House Bill 1066 of 2024 was introduced to create the MISSISSIPPI WHISTLEBLOWER REWARD ACT to reward those who report improper use of government funds. But the bill wasn’t passed.
