About this Episode
Todd McCollum and Russell Dryer welcome back Tony Guy, Beaver County Sheriff and candidate for Congress in Pennsylvania’s 17th District. Guy gives an update on the final stretch of his campaign, reflects on his recent debate with Chris Deluzio, and discusses the differences he sees between their approaches to public safety, government, and representation.
The conversation covers law enforcement, military leadership, bipartisan government, voter outreach, and Guy’s experience running the Beaver County Sheriff’s Office. He also discusses the makeup of PA-17, his efforts to connect with Republicans, Independents, and moderate Democrats, and the importance of building a broad coalition across Beaver and Allegheny counties.
The group also looks at the Allegheny County ballot referendum, Pittsburgh’s financial challenges, government oversight, federal debt, inflation, and concerns over expanding government spending. Later, the discussion turns to residency requirements for Pittsburgh paramedics, business conditions in Allegheny County, and the potential impact of paid parental leave requirements on employers and the local economy.
The episode closes on a lighter note with stories about escaped pelicans from the Pittsburgh Zoo, local athletes giving back to the community, the Steelers’ upcoming game in Paris, and Guy’s travels through Europe and World War II historic sites.
