Half a Mooch, Legal Drama & Friday on the Front Porch
October 16, 2026 | The Head-On Radio Network

Roxanne Kincaid brings Friday’s political theater, legal drama, and community conversation to The Horn, broadcasting live from West Virginia!

Roxanne opens with gratitude for the show’s supporters, acknowledges site maintainer Brother Deacon Asa, shares the daily password — property — and thanks environmental sponsor Cole River Mountain Watch.

This episode examines the sudden departure of Press Secretary Katie Zacharia, lasting less than half a Scaramucci — roughly 5.25 days — and Anthony Scaramucci’s reaction. Roxanne also discusses Eric Deters’ defamation lawsuit involving Kimberly Guilfoyle and legal representatives, alongside Jonathan Constantine’s comments on overseas security concerns.

The Minnesota Senate debate between Lt. Gov. Peggy Flanagan and Michelle Tafoya gets a closer look, with discussion of judicial reform and campaign policy positions.

Closer to home, Roxanne previews West Virginia’s legendary Bridge Day at New River Gorge, regional food trucks, and her homemade salmon dip.

Then it’s time for Friday on the Front Porch, the weekly listener roundtable! Jeremy weighs in on a workplace tools incident, voting updates, and healthcare policy. Roger joins from Oregon with agricultural news, local commentary, and pressure-canning workshops. Colin celebrates his anniversary with a $21 donation while discussing political advertising and climate policy. Dave sends early birthday wishes to Roxanne and reminisces about the show’s history, reaching back to October 17, 2005. Finally, Bill, aka “Bible Rick,” reports on a charity golf tournament, Santa Ana weather, and coastal erosion before sharing a reading of Raymond Chandler’s Red Wind.

All this, plus listener camaraderie, political debate, community news, and another Friday gathering on the front porch.

Sleep tight, America. Orange Genius will watch the execution, but you need not . . . save ALLLLL the MAGATS.

Why do MAGATS get weird about dogs? Why does the new Who, er, White House Spokesblonde claim to be a lawyer? Why is she now the subject of a complaint to the California Bar? Is Natalie-the-Nappy-Nanny worried about competition? What will viewership of the upcoming firing squad tell us about America? Why are MAGATS so predictably insane? 

Answers to these questions and more on today’s podcast!

Kimberly Gargoyle gets the boot. “Kimberly who,” asks Cankles Caligula of the woman who was engaged to his Number 1 son for three years. Natalie Harpie gets some competition . . . and she even has a Temu law license! ForProfit Media parachutes into WV to analyze the hillbillies. Chinese provinces brace for Plague. MAGAT community gets hammered by Medicaid cuts to care homes. 

Monday comes. 

It was a busy weekend. Panicked MAGATS are desperate. Allll the gender fear!

Outrage at Cankles Caligula for his “let them hit L.A.” screed; but did anyone notice the nuclear threat embedded in his mad screeching? Welcome to hell, Jim Baaker. I hope Tammy Faye teases you with ice cubes outside the gates and an army of gramdmas you ripped off are waiting for you with an eternally endless supply of pineapples. 

Sending the man the late, great Bartcop called “The Sweaty Wrestler” off to his long Hadean home. Something deadly (“Plague!”) may have broken out in Mother Russia.

Nitwit Nero loses it at the U.N. Nuclear annihilation, no less.
