Join Attorney Patrick Smith broadcasting live from Stetson University's 54th Annual Patrick L. Smith Model United States Senate! Kicking off with Whitney Houston-level chills on the national anthem, Patrick dives into the heart of this legendary three-day simulation where students from across the country become real U.S. Senators—pushing bills, whipping votes, debating amendments, and mastering Riddick's Rules like pros.

Hear from key players: Dr. David Hill on building careers through Model Senate, student coordinator Serena Dowling on crafting partisan debate gold, first-timer Isabella (as Sen. Joni Ernst) stirring the pot with discharges and deportations, Majority Leader Maddie the Surfer Girl with her NFL-playbook prep, Minority Whip Nate the Great (competitive bodybuilder edition), and alum Amy Trask on her groundbreaking Haven Act heading to the governor.

Plus pop quizzes, procedural chess talk, filibuster history (Strom Thurmond vibes), and why these kids might just out-Senate the real Washington. Legal questions? Call 1-800-771-1025!

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

Grab your margaritas (responsibly) and join Attorney Patrick Smith for a Cinco de Mayo-fueled ride on the fastest hour on radio. We kick things off with the real story behind May 5th (not Mexican Independence Day—it's the underdog victory at Puebla in 1862), rain-proof party plans with a food truck and tent, and Spike sending the show off the rails before it even starts with "Deed Frotten."

This episode dives deep into deed fraud (yes, people coming home from grocery shopping to find strangers living in their paid-off house—Brooklyn horror stories meet Florida prevention tips: sign up for those free 67-county property alerts that notify you in 24 hours!). We break down timeshares like a bad vacation regret—Florida's 10-day cooling-off period (written notice, certified mail, no take-backs on the salesperson pitch), deed-backs with full release, and why you probably shouldn't leave one to your kids.

Plus: Nine shiny new Florida laws from Governor DeSantis (church security volunteers, porch pirate penalties, organized retail theft crackdowns, boating safety, and more), trust administration 101 (who gets invited to the "reading," step-up in basis magic for taxes, and why inheritances aren't income), gun rights restoration after old felonies, rental property succession planning, Medicaid nimble trusts for nursing home worries, and a heartfelt note heading into Mother's Day.

We're #1 in talk and climbing the Tampa Bay ranks (goal: pass the Dove!), bringing back the legendary "Oh Hi There" update videos in the original pink polo (fan club drama included—Instagram shadowban story is chef's kiss), and taking your calls with wisdom, wit, and zero judgment. Real stories. Real law. Real fun. (And Easy-E filling in magnificently for Isaiah.)

Tune in, call 800-771-1025 with your deed theft, timeshare horror, or stump-the-lawyer tales, and protect what you've built. Heart and soul on the airwaves—stay safe, God bless, and Go Gators!

Oh Hi There, Deed Thieves & Timeshare Nightmares: Cinco de Mayo, New Florida Laws & Trust Drama

Buckle up for the fastest hour on radio—where Journey hits play, AI hallucinations turn last week's jet ski medevac drama into a Hollywood trailer, and your host, Attorney Patrick Smith, drops real talk on what you wish you knew before becoming an executor (thanks, Kylie: creditors, taxes, mortgages at ~6.3%, and why probate is basically a slow-motion nightmare).

This week: a fresh Florida Highway Safety text scam that screams "mandatory final notice" (spoiler: delete it faster than Isaiah grabs show prep five minutes before airtime), a listener challenge that hands out a free $695 trust package for the craziest/stump-the-lawyer question (Victor nearly triggered the gift tax with $75K into his 24-year-old's account—annual exclusion is still $19K, folks!), digital asset tips for your crypto empire, and why you should review your estate plan every three years (or sooner when life throws curveballs like name changes and new responsibilities).

Plus: Vern Hendricks dropping in fresh from retirement with his "About the Town" podcast (and his wife Elisa's legendary goodwill tours), and enough heart-and-soul legal advice to keep your family protected without the drama. Real stories. Real law. Real fun. (And zero co-hosts answering legal questions—they're not licensed, folks.)

Whether you're dodging probate, spotting scams, or just here for the banter and Gators shoutouts, call in at 800-771-1025. Heart and soul on the airwaves—tune in, call in, and stay safe (and off the midnight train to bad estate planning).

Midnight Train to Probate: Journey, Scams & Stump-the-Lawyer Shenanigans

Get ready for an action-packed episode of The Attorney Patrick Smith Show! Host Patrick Smith delivers a gripping firsthand account of a serious medical emergency that unfolded at his dock last weekend — a young girl injured in a jet ski/tubing accident that ended in a medevac to the hospital. Patrick shares the chaotic scene, the heroic first responders, the neighborhood rumor mill, and important safety lessons for everyone hitting the water this season.

Plus, Maddie the Surfer Girl returns with her own blind segment on the LSAT (Law School Admission Test) — its history since 1948, the shift from online to in-person testing, logic games, and the major cheating scandal that shut down remote testing in China. The crew (Spike, Isaiah, and Maddie) brings the laughs with radio banter, "hitting the post," truck & trailer updates, and stories from auditions to public TV days.

As always, it's a full legal call-in show — Patrick and the team are ready to tackle your questions on wills, guardianship, boating laws, and more. Call in live at 1-800-771-1025.
