Neal Boortz joins The Morning XTRA for a wide-ranging conversation covering everything from funny pet names and his failed attempt to learn the fiddle from Charlie Daniels to his thoughts on unrest in France, immigration and American politics. Boortz also discusses Florida’s proposed homestead exemption increase, why he rarely talks politics with friends outside of work, and the challenges of being recognized in public. Plus, he shares stories about his wife Donna’s charitable work, his connection to Charlie Daniels and his decision to donate his fiddle to a program helping disadvantaged kids learn music.
