E-bikes have been a topic of conversation recently as some towns around Buffalo, with Clarence being the latest, are trying to make changes to their local laws when it comes to the use of e-bikes on town trails.

And to close things out, while the deadline for some parishes to make their payment toward the abuse settlement has been pushed back, tomorrow is July 15th, the original deadline for parishes to pay up

To start the show off today, we re-visit the claims made against Buffalo Public Schools by Richard Hy. As it turns out, as WBEN uncovered via a FOIA request, a rape did take place at McKinley High School recently. Knowing that now, if you didn't believe Detective Hy before, do you now?

In an appearance on David Bellavia's program today, Erie County Clerk Mickey Kearns hinted at a potential run for mayor of Buffalo, despite the fact the primary elections have passed, saying there are 'things that can be done'.

In addition to dropping bombs on nuclear sites in Iran, another bomb was dropped by President Trump on Tuesday, perhaps the most controversial of any of the bombs he's dropped over the last week or so. This of course being the 'F' bomb, which he used in front of reporters lamenting how both Iran and Israel violated a US-brokered ceasefire. Were you bothered by President Trump's use of the 'F' bomb publicly?

The future of the Kenmore Days festival is now in limbo after multiple fights broke out at this year's festival. Should the festival be discontinued due to the unruly behavior of individuals in attendance? Why does it seem crowds at large gatherings (festivals/concerts) have become increasingly belligerent and we're seeing more and more violent outbursts at these types of functions?
