The Attorney Patrick Smith Show

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

The Attorney Patrick Smith Show delivers a hilariously heartfelt Valentine's Day special that's equal parts legal wisdom, romantic mishaps, and pure Florida chaos.

Dive into the Laws for Lovers edition, where we break down sweetheart wills, tenants by the entirety magic (creditor-proof romance, anyone?), spousal elective shares that could crash a second honeymoon, homestead rights with ticking six-month clocks, prenup/postnup peace-of-mind planning, why common law marriage is DOA in Florida, and even Romeo & Juliet exceptions for those barely-legal high school sweethearts. All set to a soundtrack of Marvin Gaye grooves and the tragic (yet oddly upbeat) 1959 classic "Running Bear" by Johnny Preston—because nothing says Valentine's like forbidden tribal love ending in a dramatic river double-dive to the happy hunting ground. (Pro tip: Patrick misheard it as "little white dog" for extra comedic flair.)

Hear about cruise wives (temporary shipboard soulmates—think micro-relationships with zero long-term strings, bonus points if Mom tags along on excursions), a guy's night discovering "Indian spicy" at Red Chili's (one spoonful too many = instant regret), birthday shoutouts to the irreplaceable Merti Mert, Car Wash Frank's prenup dreams while detailing cars and prepping for fatherhood, and a wild union stalking tale that makes Bridezilla look tame.

It's estate planning meets love advice, listener calls, Gators talk, and Patrick's signature dad-joke energy—because nothing bonds couples like learning how not to lose the house in a divorce or to a union protest.

Tune in Saturdays for live calls (800-771-1025), expert laughs, and real talk that proves love might conquer all... but a solid prenup conquers more.
