OFF THE RECORD W/ GUEST: GERARD GIBERT!! WILL HE BE THE NEXT GOVERNOR OF MISSISSIPPI?

I sat down with host of Mid-days W/ Gerard Gibert on Super Talk FM and one of the most successful businessmen in the history of Mississippi for a longform, unfiltered conversation about a wide range of topics. This was hands down one of the most interesting and informative conversations I've had in the nearly 5 years since I started doing this.
-How / if Jackson, Mississippi can be saved
-How he built and sold a $100 Million dollar company (Venture Technologies) right here in central Mississippi
-The importance of economic development here in Mississippi
-Will he run for governor in 2025? -The battle between the so-called Republican establishment Vs. MAGA
-We also hit several other topics along the way in this over hour and a half conversation!!
