Show Notes
It’s Freeform Friday from the Safety FM studios in Orlando, and (as always) it doesn’t matter who the host is—it matters who’s listening. We sprint through the last 24 hours of signal vs. noise: late-night TV fallout and affiliate pressure, chip-wars and strange bedfellows (Intel/Nvidia), mass protests in France, tariff chess across North America, Meta’s new glasses + wristband control, an air-traffic controller who literally slept on the job, movie openings, a Publishers Clearing House twist, market flashes, and more. Plus: Motivation Minute, One-Minute Devotion, and a reminder to bring your curiosity to our free “Signal Theory” virtual on Sept 30. Call in, text, or video via CallInRadio.com and be part of the mayhem.
