Special Guest: Dr. Katherine Callahan.
Host Kristopher H. Bilbrey covers the BIG news of the day in Muncie, Indiana—the closure of 234 campsites on the North Shore of Prairie Creek Reservoir.
Muncie Mayor Dan Ridenour announced this during a press conference held earlier in the day (Wednesday, November 19, 2025). This is something Bilbrey has heard was coming for some time, but it still comes as a shock.
Bilbrey discusses what this could mean for the city in the long run, as well as the potential political fallout for Mayor Ridenour.
Finally, Bilbrey explains the difference between reality and fantasy while describing how Hollywood movie magic works! For those wondering, this is connected to the "Whitestown Cleaning Lady Shooting" case.

Host Kristopher H. Bilbrey covers the "2026 Organizational Day" (Tuesday, November 18, 2025) of the Indiana General Assembly. For everyone wanting a vote on the possibility of "Indiana Congressional redistricting"... a vote by the Indiana State Senators did take place today.
Bilbrey then discusses the press conference scheduled for Wednesday, November 19, 2025, at 1:30 p.m. on the 3rd floor of Muncie City Hall. Muncie Mayor Dan Ridenour will announce important information regarding "Muncie City Parks." What could this information be? Bilbrey has some thoughts.

Host Kristopher H. Bilbrey breaks down the information shared with the public by Boone County, Indiana, Prosecutor Kent Eastwood during the press conference on Monday, November 17, 2025.
Prosecutor Eastwood announced that 62-year-old Curt D. Andersen was arrested on a warrant for a single count of voluntary manslaughter (a level 2 felony) in connection with the shooting death of 32-year-old Maria Florinda Rios del Velazquez, who was fatally shot after she and her husband mistakenly arrived at the wrong house (Andersen's) for work in Whitestown, Indiana, during the early morning hours of Wednesday, November 5, 2025
Bilbrey believes this was the wrong decision by Prosecutor Eastwood and that he simply caved to pressure from those demanding charges, regardless of the law.

Host Kristopher H. Bilbrey covers the big news that broke right at the end of the day on Friday, November 14, 2025, just as the weekend was beginning!
The Breaking News:
Indiana State Senate President Pro Tem Rodric Bray (R-Martinsville / District 37) issued the following statement: "Over the last several months, (Indiana State) Senate Republicans have given very serious and thoughtful consideration to the concept of redrawing our state's congressional maps. Today, I'm announcing there are not enough votes to move that idea forward, and the Senate will not reconvene in December."
That news understandably upset many, from local and state politicos all the way to the White House. And this is just the beginning!
Bilbrey also discusses the latest updates in the "Whitestown Shooting Investigation!"

This 557th episode of 'The Political Spotlight' will be an open-topic show!
Host Kristopher H. Bilbrey is currently working on a few topics that aren't quite ready to explore yet, and even though it seems like a lot is happening, everything still feels like it's moving at a snail's pace.
There are a few odds and ends to cover as we head into the weekend; this is always a strange time of year, politically speaking. But, as usual, Bilbrey will make the most of it!

Host Kristopher H. Bilbrey discusses a tragic event that occurred in Delaware County, Indiana, around 3:40 a.m. today (Wednesday, November 12, 2025). Delaware County Sheriff's Department Corporal Blake Reynolds responded to a call about a motorist in need of assistance on Interstate 69, northbound from State Road 28. While Cpl. Reynolds was out of his vehicle helping a truck driver who had pulled over on the side of the road when a second semi, also headed north, lost control and collided with Cpl. Reynolds' patrol vehicle, the broken-down semi, and, sadly, Cpl. Reynolds himself.
First responders from all over the area rushed to the scene to help in any way possible. Two medical helicopters were dispatched, and every effort was made to save Cpl. Reynolds. Unfortunately, he succumbed to his injuries.
Bilbrey then provides some updated details about the Whitestown shooting investigation.
And finally, Bilbrey shares the dreadful news of Sharon McShurley's apparent return to Delaware County politics for the 2026 election cycle. #ThePoliticalSpotlight

Host Kristopher H. Bilbrey discusses the tragic death of 32-year-old Maria Florinda Rios del Velazquez, who was fatally shot after accidentally arriving at the wrong house for work in Whitestown, Indiana, early Wednesday morning, November 5, 2025.
However, this isn't just an ordinary murder case; it's more complex, which has led to misinformation, conspiracies, and lies spreading quickly. Therefore, Bilbrey decided to speak out in an effort to help calm the chaos. Like everyone else, Bilbrey has limited information about the actual case; however, his background in law enforcement will allow him to help clarify some of the confusion.
Join us as Bilbrey attempts to clarify what little is known about this situation, while also explaining what Indiana’s laws say about murder, manslaughter, self-defense, and Indiana's "Castle Doctrine." This will all be thoroughly examined in the coming days and weeks. But regardless of the emotions involved or the opinions expressed, it will ultimately come down to the facts and the law, as it should.

The 2026 midterm election cycle starts in less than 60 days (as of the initial broadcast of this episode: Sunday, November 9, 2025). However, that doesn't mean the campaigning hasn't already begun!
The question then becomes: Is everything being done correctly?
And what's all the fuss about Madison County Council's "newbie" Councilor Jonathan Culp? Has he really been using his county position to campaign for a higher seat, just 11 months into his first term as Councilor? What committee is he using to campaign? What will his campaign finance reports show? And has he really been buying votes?
Host Kristopher H. Bilbrey welcomes contributing correspondent Dr. Katherin Callahan to the show to help break everything down! This will be an episode you won't want to miss!

Host Kristopher H. Bilbrey responds to an article in The Star Press about the recent Muncie City Council meeting held on Monday, November 3, 2025.
Bilbrey then discusses the results of the general election held on Tuesday, November 4, 2025, in various states across the country. Indiana was not among those states, as this is an off-year election. Indiana's election cycle will resume in January 2026. But can Hoosiers learn anything from the results elsewhere to help decide what might happen next year? Tune in and find out!

Muncie Mayor Dan Ridenour's proposal for a new, 11-million-dollar fire station construction project is on track to be discussed and voted on during the November 3, 2025, Muncie City Council meeting.
The agenda has been released, and for the third consecutive month, the final resolution listed—now called "Resolution 19-25" (initially numbered 16-25 in September and 17-25 in October)—is what the Ridenour Administration has been attempting to jam through.
Who is sponsoring Resolution 19-25? None other than Muncie City Councilor Dale Basham. But, will anything come of the actions taken by Mayor Ridenour's Executive Assistant, Shareen Wagley, when she sent the resolution to the City Clerk's office to have it added to the October agenda with Councilor Dale Basham's signature, without his prior approval?
Host Kristopher H. Bilbrey has a lot to say about all of that, as well as the rest of the agenda for the November 3, 2025, City Council meeting.
Bilbrey then discusses being a "scumbag" due to his thoughts and comments regarding a recent local news story. That, or perhaps everyone else is not intelligent enough to comprehend complex thoughts.
All this and more in this 550th episode of 'The Political Spotlight.' Tune in because you won't want to miss it.

Host Kristopher H. Bilbrey welcomes contributing correspondent Dr. Katherine Callahan to the program to discuss the redistricting nonsense that Indiana Governor Mike Braun and other bumbling elected officials are currently trying to make happen. All because the White House wants it.
This is a national, state, and local politics topic!
Keeping Katherine on topic is always a challenge... Bilbrey really tried this episode!

After taking a week off due to a funeral, Host Kristopher H. Bilbrey and the rest of 'The Political Spotlight' crew are back! There are many topics to cover—so grab your favorite snack and drink, sit back, and let's get started!
First, Bilbrey highlights several "records" that the City of Muncie finally released. The documents relate to Dustin Clark, Flatland Resources, and the Ridenour Administration's efforts to build the new Fire Station 5.
Next, Bilbrey moves on to the recent #SprolesWatch! Bilbrey shares the latest information he's gathered from multiple sources. This is a sensitive subject, and it will be handled carefully.
Staying on the topic of Henry County Law Enforcement for a moment, Bilbrey shares his thoughts on a video currently circulating about the Middletown and Knightstown Police Departments. There is a lot to consider with this topic, and it should be looked at with an understanding of what Indiana law says about many of the issues discussed in the video. Bilbrey explains it all in this episode.
Then, Bilbrey discusses the recent arrest of Jonathan Peternel, the adult son of Nathan Peternel, a mentor and close friend of Indiana's Lt. Governor, Micah Beckwith. Similar to the topic of Sheriff John Sproles, this could have been an issue that wasn't political. However, due to actions taken by those involved, it has become a matter of concern.
Finally, Bilbrey explores the possibility that Indiana Governor Mike Braun will call a "special session" of the Indiana General Assembly on Monday, October 27, 2025, solely to redistrict Indiana's Congressional Districts—something most Hoosiers neither want nor understand. Bilbrey covers it all here.
This is definitely a show you DO NOT want to miss!

The system is designed so that, regardless of who is in charge, the type of government, or the situation, it allows or even encourages elected and appointed public servants to be disrespectful toward taxpayers.
Host Kristopher H. Bilbrey covers a few odds and ends as he waits for the big meeting for the City of Muncie on Thursday, October 16, 2025.
