77 Years of Wisdom: Vietnam Vet Dad, Hank Williams Vibes & Real Florida Legal Talk

Join Attorney Patrick Smith live from the Bone Studios in beautiful St. Petersburg, Florida, for a high-energy episode packed with real talk on estate planning and probate.

This week, we help 3L law student Nico DeVito earn extra credit for his Stetson University College of Law estate planning class by putting him on the air to interview Patrick about a high-stakes, multi-million-dollar estate settlement involving blended family tension, suspicion of foul play, and intense family volatility. Patrick shares hard-won lessons from 19+ years and 25,000+ cases—including how to set the right tone in explosive meetings, the economics of litigation, creditor claims, and why so many disputes stem from grief, regret, or unresolved issues with the decedent.

Adding major pressure (and wisdom): a surprise in-studio appearance by Stetson Law Dean Benjamin Barrows, who observes and chimes in on family conflicts, mediation, and practical planning tips. We also take your calls on will contests, fiduciary breaches, updating revocable trusts, and more.

Plus: a heartfelt Top Gun tribute and RIP to James Tolkan (Stinger), Isaiah the Magnificent powering through post-hospital meds, Spike on the mic, a Model Senate recap, and a soulful sing-along finale with "Take Me Home, Country Roads" and "Soul Man."

Raw, real radio with practical estate planning advice, listener interaction, humor, and faith-based encouragement. Whether you're planning your own estate, dealing with family dynamics, or just love great legal storytelling—this one's for you.

Model Senate Mayhem: Live from Stetson – Future Senators, Filibusters & Fierce Debate

Get ready for the ultimate St. Patrick's Day spectacular on The Attorney Patrick Smith Show! Host Patrick Smith (whose second birthday is March 17th) breaks down the hidden Florida laws lurking behind your favorite traditions: pinching non-green wearers (hello, battery charges under 784.03), underage green beer pitfalls (no holiday exceptions!), disorderly intoxication, false imprisonment if you grab that leprechaun, and why shaking one upside-down for gold could mean robbery or grand theft.

Live calls (including wise 14-year-old Rio dreaming of manga and herbal meds), a loose leprechaun in the studio ("I'm a leprechaun, me dear!"), Spike's lingering hugs, Isaiah's return, NYC recaps, musical Chess surprises, and a special drop-in from Drew Garabo in his infamous green romper.

Whether you're chasing pots of gold or just trying not to get pinched, tune in for laughs, legal wisdom, faith-filled encouragement, Gators updates, and a reminder: holiday traditions don't trump Florida statutes! Call in with your questions at 1-800-771-1025.
