On this first broadcast day of August 2026, Bill Bunkley launches the month-long Food for the Poor campaign from the studios of Faith Talk Tampa / Salem Radio Central Florida, streaming worldwide at Let’s Talk Faith.com. He shares heartbreaking field testimonies of children in Latin America and the Caribbean facing extreme food insecurity—where a seven-year-old waits because “today it’s not my turn to eat,” where severe malnutrition produces potbellies and golden hair, and where families earn only a few dollars a day amid rising prices, crop failures and natural disasters. Listeners are invited to join the Bunkley family (who already gave) with a tax-deductible $80 gift that feeds one child for an entire year; a generous matching benefactor doubles every donation so $80 feeds two children, $160 feeds four, and larger gifts scale accordingly. Gifts can be made online at letstalkfaith.com (click the red “Give Food” banner), by texting WTBN to 51555, or by calling the Hope Line 855-353-HOPE; the goal is at least 375 children fed, with early donors already removing kids from the waiting list. Bill also directs Hillsborough County voters (early voting underway) to his full unlocked recommendations document on the same website, notes upcoming lists for Polk, Pasco, Hernando, Pinellas, Manatee and Sarasota, and explains his conservative/Christian-worldview weighting that balances electability with post-election legislative relationships. The briefing continues with analysis of the latest Trump-Iran pause after Saudi and other Arab allies urged restraint, discussion of the human and strategic costs of deeper strikes on energy infrastructure or boots-on-the-ground operations, the arrival of Tesla and Waymo (Alphabet) driverless robotaxis in Tampa as another marker of the AI-driven job transformation, and the remarkable Israeli surgical first—complete rib-cage replacement with a custom 3D-printed implant for a young woman with an ultra-rare sarcoma. Studio lines remain open at 877-943-9673 throughout.
