## Resource

This is “BPR Talks” – where we feature the call-in segments of the day. If you’re looking for the full two hours with guests, you can find the full episode right here in the same feed. Today on the show: As Trump’s endless Iran excursion continues, gas and diesel prices get higher everyday. From candidate Trump who promised lower gas prices on day one, we’re opening the phone and text lines to hear about your pain at the pump and pocketbook. Are you considering that EV instead of a gas guzzler? We’ll end the week talking recess… and a new push to get more unstructured, outside play time for kids at school. Some parents say kids need longer breaks in between learning and screen time…What’s your take? Listen in to find out!
