Donovan dives into everything from downtown ribbon cuttings to billion-dollar rail mergers. A new waxing salon has landed in Tifton, the state’s trying to fix its nursing shortage with a new college agreement, and 8,600 Georgia students are getting Promise Scholarships for alternative education. Lawmakers are back at it with gambling proposals, and the Port of Savannah just had a monster year—thanks, tariffs. Meanwhile, Valdosta launched a girls-only firefighter camp, and Union Pacific is trying to buy its way across the country with an $85B rail deal. The EPA might roll back climate rules, Georgia cities are killing it in food manufacturing, and a new national health data system is raising privacy flags. Kamala Harris isn’t running for governor, Texas is playing redistricting hardball, and oh—someone found a radioactive wasp nest. The economy? Surprisingly perky with 3% GDP growth. Not bad, considering everything.
Catch it all with a wink and a side of sass—only on Tifton Talks.
