Episode Details

In this hour of The Charlie James Show, host Charlie James engages with local listeners in a lively debate centered on South Carolina political dynamics, specifically focusing on the contentious Senate race between Darlene Graham, Annie Andrews, and write-in candidate Ralph Norman. Callers express frustration over party politics, low election runoff turnouts, and the strategic implications of write-in campaigns versus voting along party lines to secure judicial appointments and conservative policies. Interspersed with political discourse, the show addresses a concerned parent’s report of new RFID tracking badges in Cherokee County schools. To round out the hour, Charlie welcomes Jeff Plate, long-time drummer for the Trans-Siberian Orchestra, to discuss their upcoming holiday tour stop in Greenville, detailing their rehearsal process, evolving stage technology, and the emotional connection the show maintains with multi-generational audiences.
