¶ We need to think about climate this election
As the election draws closer, we cannot ignore the growing impact of climate change on our communities. Hurricane Helene and now Hurricane Milton, along with dozens of wildfires this past summer — they’re all clear warning signs of a very real climate crisis.
This issue deserves more attention than it’s received so far this election cycle. During the presidential debate, only one brief question was asked about climate at the very end.
The fact is, the climate crisis impacts us all, no matter where we live or how much money we make. Americans are being told to flee their homes and risk losing everything. Meanwhile, Big Oil continues to put profits over people by prioritizing fossil fuels that continue to destroy our environment.
We cannot afford to lose any more time in the fight against the climate crisis. We need leaders — at the federal, state, and local level — who believe in the science of climate change and are willing or can be convinced to take bold action before it’s too late. So I urge everyone: When you cast your ballot this November, think of our planet and the people that call it home.
— Brenda Rollins, Orlando
¶ Thanks from afar
I have visited Orlando for past conferences. Recently, I have shared this article from Orlando Weekly widely (“Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis wants to bar state from considering climate change in investments,” July 29, 2022).
If you ever might do “looking back” pieces, it could be a good one to include as the climate change hoax is about to hit again. Those who say “it’s not the time” are the same ones who say it is not the time to bring up efforts to prevent carnage after the latest mass shooting.
[ your words ]
I supported and corresponded with Progress Florida because of it, and recently red an article on the Center for Media and Democracy about [Florida CFO] Jimmy Patronis and the State Financial Officers Foundation. [The article lists many pro-Israel and anti-ESG financial actions Patronis has undertaken in Florida’s name.]
I am mystified by the support for these and other MAGA policies that sure seem to be saying, “Hurricanes aren’t bad enough yet, let’s drill baby drill and make them worse! We may have lost our homes, but gee, we saved a few bucks at the pump for a while … and hmm, why are those people getting free energy for their cars and homes from the sun so happy?

¶ Florida surprise
Florida has more voters who lean Democrat than those who lean Republican. The ace in the hole is NPA (No Party Affiliation) and especially those under 25, who choose the standard Democrat values. [Candidate for HD 37] Nate Douglas can help break the supermajority in Tallahassee that brought you all the most horrendous laws in the country, including discriminatory voter suppression. NPA breaks Democrat, with at least 60 to 40 advantage Democrat. Florida has 3.5 million NPA, with most trending younger.
Why haven’t we heard this? That supermajority in Tally used sleight of hand to move mostly Democrats to a special file where they still can vote, they just aren’t recorded as registered voters. It is called “inactive.” This is then part of the false propaganda that Florida has a red wave. But that advantage still depends on Democrat voting.
We win Florida and that is a landslide for the country.
Can you imagine what your MAGA uncle will do? When Florida goes blue he’ll turn red with rage.

» Orlando abortion provider fights to keep license as DeSantis admin pushes for revocation
The administration of Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis wants to punish a doctor who violated the state’s 24-hour rule on abortion by stripping away her medical license. The push to revoke the license is going forward even though an administrative law judge who looked at the physician’s actions suggested a $10,000 fine and a reprimand. The Florida Department of Health, however, has taken exception to the judge’s position and is asking the Florida Board of Medicine to revoke the license of Dr. Candace Cooley. The case against Cooley is slated to be discussed during the Board of Medicine’s Dec. 6 meeting in Orlando. That would be shortly after voters in the state decide whether to pass Amendment 4, an initiative that would bar government interference with abortion up to the point of fetal viability. Cooley was charged with a single violation of “failing to perform any statutory or legal obligation placed upon a licensed physician” stemming from 193 abortions she performed between April 25 and May 7, 2022, without waiting 24 hours between consultation and the procedure — one of the mandated informed consent requirements that are part of the state’s abortion laws. Cooley had been working at the Center of Orlando for Women, an abortion clinic, since 2019 but hadn’t been informed of the specifics of Florida’s 24-hour waiting period for abortions. The restriction was passed in 2015 but had been put on hold pending litigation. Circuit Court Judge Angela Dempsey in early April upheld the law pending a written final order, which she issued on April 25, 2022.
» Medical director of anti-abortion pregnancy center in Orlando joins DeSantis to blast Florida’s Amendment 4
Less than two weeks before Election Day, Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis last week organized a slew of press conferences with anti-abortion doctors around the state in a last-ditch effort to defeat Florida’s Amendment 4, a ballot measure that would override Florida’s six-week abortion ban and legalize abortion in Florida up to fetal viability, if approved by voters. One of the doctors he invited to join him at a press conference in Central Florida was Tamberly McCarus, a licensed “pro-life” OB-GYN and the volunteer medical director of Choices Women’s Clinic, a Christian pregnancy center in Orlando that attempts to lure pregnant people in and convince them not to get an abortion. Such pregnancy centers, often run by churches or faith-based nonprofits, are also known as crisis pregnancy centers, unregulated pregnancy centers, or simply fake abortion clinics. Choices medical director McCarus — who is also affiliated with AdventHealth — took the stage with DeSantis at the Grove Bible Chapel in Winter Garden, where she described Florida’s Amendment 4 as “extreme” and “radical,” saying it “simply goes too far.” This places her in stark contrast with the more than 850 Florida doctors who endorsed Amendment 4 last week, signing a letter that states infringements on access to abortion harm the health of Floridians.
» New audit finds Orange County still incorrectly calculating transportation impact fees
A new audit performed by the Orange County Comptroller’s Office as a follow-up to an audit conducted in 2018 has found that Orange County continues to have a problem with calculating transportation impact fees owed by commercial developers. The new report shares that about one-third of the impact fee assessments auditors examined were calculated incorrectly, with the majority of such cases involving overpayments. Out of a sample of 32 cases, for instance, 11 were identified by auditors as overpayments, while another three cases involved underpayments. In 2018, auditors similarly identified incorrect assessments and provided recommendations to the county in order to address the problem. Some of these recommendations — such as upgrading their system for data input — were implemented, while others have not been as of the most recent audit period. The county told Orlando Weekly in response to the audit findings that they’re working on refunding the overpayments and have collected fees associated with the underpayments. They’re also conducting more regular staff training for the data input process and have implemented a second-review system. Transportation impact fees are one-time fees that Orange County imposes on new construction, with the primary purpose of helping to fund public infrastructure projects that can help accommodate the anticipated growth, demand or traffic a project is expected to bring.
» Nurses at two HCA hospitals in Central Florida approve new union contracts After a contentious round of union contract negotiations, registered nurses at two HCA hospitals in Central Florida — HCA Lake Monroe in Sanford and HCA Osceola Hospital in Kissimmee — have voted to approve new contracts negotiated between their union and their multibillion-dollar employer, HCA Healthcare. According to the union, National Nurses United, the new three-year collective bargaining agreements deliver an average 15 percent wage increase for registered nurses — the largest guaranteed wage increase ever secured for nurses at both facilities, over the life of the contract — plus improvements to nurses’“floating” policy and the option of adding personal pronouns and preferred names to name badges. Under the new floating policy, RNs can only be temporarily assigned to other units with specialties similar to their normal unit, in an effort to increase safety. To address concerns over safe staffing levels, their new contracts also include a commitment by HCA to launch a short-term pilot program that will designate dedicated break relief staff for nurses. The program doesn’t require HCA to hire more staff, but it will help to ensure there is a nurse who can help relieve a co-worker who needs to take a water break, bathroom break or grab a snack during their 12-hour shift without risking the health and safety of patients they’re assigned to. The nurses’ last union contract expired on May 31 and was extended while reps for the union and employer continued contract negotiations. According to the union, HCA also reached tentative agreements with 17 HCA hospitals total in six states last week. Eight others are located on Florida’s Gulf Coast.
FLORIDA BALLOT AMENDMENTS 2024: A COMMON-SENSE OVERVIEW
The basics on changes to the state Constitution you can vote on
BY MCKENNA SCHUELER
With Election Day coming up on Tuesday, Nov. 5, and early voting already underway, two proposed constitutional amendments on the statewide ballot this year in Florida have secured a great deal of attention: Florida’s marijuana legalization initiative, Amendment 3, and Florida’s abortion rights initiative, Amendment 4.
But there are four others that are on the ballot this year, too. For the sake of giving our
readers a place to start, Orlando Weekly has put together a basic overview of all six statewide ballot initiatives.
We’re not telling you who, or what, to vote for.
That’s up to you. We’re just here to help you feel informed in your decision to vote, however you choose. You can also check out an overview we put together of some of the anti-abortion judges and Supreme Court justices on the ballot, too. You know, in case you were wondering.
Effectively, this would repeal a previous constitutional amendment approved by Florida voters in 1998 that had made school board elections nonpartisan.
What supporters say: This would provide voters with information about candidates for school board (specifically, their political and ideological beliefs) — information that they’re probably looking up anyway.
What opponents say: This would unnecessarily polarize and politicize public schools to a greater extent than they already have been, thanks to culture-war policies advanced by the GOP in recent years targeting books in schools, discussion of gender identity and sexual orientation, etc.
A “yes” vote means you support making school board elections partisan.
A “no” vote means you support keeping school board elections nonpartisan.
AMENDMENT 2: RIGHT TO FISH AND HUNT
Florida’s Amendment 2 would amend the state Constitution to “preserve forever fishing and hunting” as a “public right.” Basically, establishing a constitutional right to fish and hunt. Florida law already recognizes the right to do these things.
What supporters say: Amendment 2 would preserve traditions and prevent state lawmakers from taking away or restricting Floridians’ hunting and fishing practices.
What opponents say: This is targeting an imaginary threat. Amendment 2 could also threaten conservation efforts and prioritize certain rights (hunting, fishing) over others (property rights, etc).
A “yes” vote means you support making the right to hunt and fish a constitutional right (rather than just a right that’s already recognized under Florida statutes).
A “no” vote means you do not support enshrining the right to hunt and fish in the State Constitution.
AMENDMENT 3: ADULT PERSONAL USE OF MARIJUANA
Florida’s Amendment 3 would legalize recreational/non-medical use of marijuana for adults age 21 and older, and make it legal for the average 21-and-up adult to possess up to 3 ounces of marijuana and up to 5 grams of cannabis concentrate. Currently, marijuana is only legal in Florida for medical use, and you need to have a medical marijuana card, renewed every 10 months by a doctor, in order to legally purchase it.
Let’s dive in.
AMENDMENT 1: PARTISAN ELECTION OF MEMBERS OF DISTRICT SCHOOL BOARDS
Florida Amendment 1 would amend the state Constitution to require school board members to be elected through a partisan election (that is, candidates would be identified by political party) rather than a nonpartisan election. This would apply beginning with the November 2026 election.
Going deeper: Florida voters last weighed in on marijuana policy in 2016, when 71% of Floridians voted in favor of legalizing medical marijuana use. If Florida voters approve Amendment 3 this year, it would make Florida the 25th state to legalize recreational marijuana use.
What supporters say: Legalizing marijuana for personal use is “common sense” and would save taxpayer dollars currently “wasted” on jailing people for simply possessing marijuana. Experts also estimate that legalization and

regulation of marijuana would generate hundreds of millions of dollars in state and local tax revenue.
What opponents say: Legalizing recreational marijuana would make the state smell bad, and would serve only to benefit powerful special interests (e.g. cannabis dispensaries). Marijuana legalization would “put children at risk.”
A “yes” vote would support the legalization of marijuana for personal use by adults age 21 and older.
A “no” vote would oppose the legalization of marijuana for personal use by adults age 21 and older.
AMENDMENT 4: AMENDMENT TO LIMIT GOVERNMENT INTERFERENCE WITH ABORTION
Florida’s Amendment 4 would enshrine the right to have an abortion in the state Constitution and prevent state legislators from banning or restricting abortion access before viability or “when necessary to protect the patient’s health” as determined by the person’s healthcare provider. Under Florida statutes, “viability” is defined as “the stage of fetal development when the life of a fetus is sustainable outside the womb through standard medical measures.” Generally, this occurs between 24 to 26 weeks of pregnancy. Currently, most abortions in Florida are banned after six weeks. Florida’s Amendment 4 would not change a requirement under the state Constitution that a parent or guardian be notified before a minor has an abortion.
What supporters say: Amendment 4 would limit the government’s ability to interfere with personal medical decisions that should be made between a pregnant person and that person’s physician. Amendment 4 would restore and protect personal freedoms, and free doctors from the risk of facing criminal penalties for providing pregnant women necessary medical care to protect their health and safety.
What opponents say: Amendment 4 is “radical,”“extreme,” and would allow a person to get an abortion whenever, up to the point of birth if they pleased. Opponents also argue it would trample parental rights.
A “yes” vote would extend Florida’s current abortion limit to the point of viability, equal to about 24 to 26 weeks of pregnancy.
A “no” vote would keep Florida’s six-week abortion ban in place.
AMENDMENT 5: ANNUAL ADJUSTMENTS TO THE VALUE OF CERTAIN HOMESTEAD EXEMPTIONS
Florida’s Amendment 5 would annually adjust for inflation the value of current and future homestead property tax exemptions, effective Jan. 1, 2025. Currently, Florida homeowners are able to benefit from a fixed homestead exemption, which reduces the taxable value of a property. It’s a tax cut, but one that also ultimately affects the budgets of local governments — meaning, less money for public safety, infrastructure, public works, parks, libraries, etc.
A legislative analysis of Amendment 5 estimated that, within the first year alone, adjusting the homestead exemption for inflation would reduce tax revenue by about $23 million. That figure would grow to an estimated $111.8 million in the 2028-2029 fiscal year. This amendment would not affect school district taxes.
What supporters say: Amendment 5 would offer homeowners some property tax relief. So, savings for homeowners.
What opponents say: While the idea of a tax cut is nice, this would also reduce the tax dollars available to fund city and county government services and programs, including law enforcement, parks and recreation, public infrastructure (e.g. roads), etc. Amendment 5 wouldn’t help renters/non-homeowners.
A “yes” vote would require annual adjustments to the homestead tax exemption based on inflation (using Consumer Price Index data from the U.S. Department of Labor).
A “no” vote would keep the homestead tax exemption fixed, like it is today.
AMENDMENT 6: REPEAL OF PUBLIC CAMPAIGN FINANCE REQUIREMENT
Florida’s Amendment 6 would get rid of a campaign financing program that gives candidates running for statewide offices (governor, cabinet offices) the right to public financing for their campaigns if they agree to certain terms, such as spending limits and an audit. The intent of this program is to help allow working-class people run for office — not just billionaires who can burn through money without blinking. Currently, under this matching funds program, the state will match contributions of up to $250 for candidates who can first demonstrate their ability to raise money on their own. For gubernatorial candidates, they need to first raise $150,000. For cabinet positions (e.g. Attorney General, Chief Financial Officer), the floor is $100,000.
Going deeper: This matching funds program was first created through legislation in 1986. Then, in 1998, Florida voters approved a constitution amendment enshrining the right to public campaign financing in the State Constitution. This 2024 proposal would repeal that.
What supporters say: Amendment 6 would save taxpayers money. Allowing taxpayer dollars to be used for campaigning is a waste, and could be better put toward other government services and programs.
What opponents say: Repealing this program would further inhibit the ability of working-class people to be able to afford to run for office. Public financing creates a level playing field for those with fewer resources to burn on campaigning. Voters already indicated they’re fine with keeping this program in place by voting down a similar repeal effort in 2010.
A “yes” vote would repeal the state’s public financing program.
A “no” vote would keep the state’s public financing program in place.

BENCH WARRANTED?
It’s tough to find information about these local judges up for retention on the 2024 ballot. But here’s some info about their positions on abortion rights
BY MCKENNA SCHUELER
We know finding information about judges and Supreme Court justices is difficult. It’s one of the questions we get most often around ballot time: How can a voter research these names?
Abortion has become a central issue this election cycle in Florida and across the U.S., as states continue to face the fallout of the U.S. Supreme Court’s overturning of Roe. v. Wade
On the ballot this year in Florida is Amendment 4, a measure that, if approved, would enshrine the right to abortion in the state Constitution and legalize abortion up to viability, which generally occurs between the 24th and 26th week of pregnancy. Currently, abortion in Florida is banned after six weeks in pretty much all cases — even though that’s before many people even learn they’re pregnant. Just three years ago, abortion was legal in Florida up to the third trimester, or about 28 weeks of pregnancy, for comparison’s sake.
Also on the ballot this year are several judicial candidates who are up for retention. That is, you can vote “yes” for them to retain their positions or “no” to vote them off the bench. These positions are officially listed on the ballot as nonpartisan, but regardless of political party, some judicial candidates have a documented history of either supporting or obstructing access to abortion.
To give Orlando Weekly readers a voting cheat sheet, we’re helping you figure out where some of these judicial candidates stand on the issue, if abortion is a voting issue for you.
SUPREME COURT JUSTICES
There are seven justices who make up the Florida Supreme Court and two of them — both DeSantis appointees — are up for a retention vote this year. Both have a record indicating they are anti-choice when it comes to abortion access.
Justice Renatha Francis was appointed by DeSantis to her position on the state’s highest
court in 2022. He previously tried to appoint her in 2020, but she wasn’t yet qualified for the role. Prior to her current position, she was counsel at a law firm, working on class action and mass litigation, and she spent six years clerking for the 1st District Court of Appeals.
Where does she land on the issue of abortion? Well, if you recall, on April 1, the Florida Supreme Court issued two rulings: One allowed Florida’s pro-abortion Amendment 4 to go on the ballot this year. The other upheld the 15-week abortion ban and thus allowed Florida’s current six-week ban to go into effect one month later. Francis wrote the dissent on the ruling that allowed Amendment 4 to go into effect: “One must recognize the unborn’s competing right to life, and the state’s moral duty to protect that life.” Francis is also a member of the Federalist Society, a legal group that “advocates for a textualist and originalist interpretation of the U.S. Constitution” and has helped many conservatives climb the judicial ranks and secure appointments to influential courts (like those who overturned Roe v. Wade).
Justice Meredith Sasso — wife of Valencia College board of trustees member and Public Employees Relations Commissioner Michael Sasso — was appointed to the state’s highest court by DeSantis in 2023. She had previously been appointed by DeSantis to serve on the 6th District Court of Appeals and, before that, worked in the Office of General Counsel to Gov. Rick Scott. Sasso, like Francis, dissented on the ruling that allowed Amendment 4 to make it onto the ballot. Meaning, she was in favor of blocking its placement on the ballot. Like Francis, Sasso is also a member of the Federalist Society and concurred with the majority on the ruling that Florida’s 15-week ban should be upheld, thus allowing the six-week ban to later go into effect.

SIXTH DISTRICT COURT OF APPEALS
The 6th District Court of Appeals, first established in 2022, is headquartered in Polk County, but covers 10 counties, including Orange and Osceola.
Florida Family Action, the legislative arm of the anti-abortion, anti-LGBTQIA+ Florida Family Policy Council, has recommended voters retain all five appellate judges, so that’s telling. The Orange County Democratic Party recommends voting them out.
Judge Paetra Brownlee: Probably anti-abortion
There’s not much definitive information about Brownlee’s stance on abortion available, but Florida Family Action recommends that Florida residents vote to retain Brownlee. So we’re going to guess she’s on board with their (generally retrograde) values. She’s also a member of the Federalist Society. Brownlee, a graduate of Emory University raised in Orlando, was appointed to her position on the Sixth District Court of Appeals in 2023 by DeSantis, who signed into law Florida’s six-week abortion ban last year. DeSantis has also more recently
weaponized state resources to campaign against Florida’s Amendment 4.
Judge Roger Gannam: Anti-abortion Gannam was appointed to his position on the District Court of Appeals by DeSantis last year (red flag), but more telling of his views on abortion is his previous work for the Christian legal group Liberty Counsel, which describes itself as “unshakably dedicated to protecting and defending human life, from the moment of conception until natural death.” In 2017, Gannam told the National Catholic Reporter that he was inspired to join the Christian legal movement after attending a training program hosted by the Alliance Defending Freedom, an anti-abortion legal group that has helped states defend their abortion bans. Slate recently described them as “the most sinister advocacy group that people have never heard of.” In 2015, Gannam wrote a column whining about nondiscrimination laws for the LGBTQIA+ population, arguing such protective policies cause “harm” and “discrimination against people of faith.” Take from that what you will.
Judge Joshua Mize: Possibly anti-abortion Mize, a former member of the National Republican Lawyers Association and the
HOUSE RACES TO WATCH
Democrats target the GOP supermajority, taking aim at more than a dozen incumbent Republicans as well as a handful of open seats on the Nov. 5 ballot
BY JIM TURNER, NSF
After fielding candidates in all 120 House races, Florida Democrats have narrowed their focus in an effort to cut into Republicans’ supermajority in the chamber.
Democrats’ targets include more than a dozen incumbent Republicans as well as a handful of open House seats on the Nov. 5 ballot.
“It’s going to be competitive this cycle because of the high turnout of Democrats because independents are breaking for us in significant margins. That puts those seats pretty much in play for this election cycle,” Florida Democratic Party Chairwoman Nikki Fried told the News Service of Florida last week.
Republicans, meanwhile, are taking aim at several incumbent Democrats while fiercely defending GOP-held posts — including districts along the I-4 corridor recently flipped by Democrats.
With an 85-35 lead in the state House, the
College Republicans, and a member of the Federalist Society since 2007, was first appointed by DeSantis to the 9th Judicial Circuit Court in Orange and Osceola Counties in 2021. In late 2022, DeSantis appointed him to the 6th District Court of Appeals, along with Judge Jared Smith and Keith White. There’s not much public information available regarding his stance on abortion. In 2023, he applied for a vacancy on the Florida Supreme Court, but didn’t get the job. According to his application, Mize is also a former member of the National Rifle Association and led the University of Florida’s Federalist Society chapter as chapter president while attending law school.
Judge Jared Smith: Anti-abortion Jared Smith may be one of the more wellknown names on this list, due to the extensive media coverage he received after denying a 17-year-old teenager in Florida an abortion because of her grades. Under Florida law, minors under 18 are required to obtain parental consent in order to get an abortion. If they can’t get consent, or don’t have parents to give consent, they can petition to go in front of a judge to plead their own case. In this case, Smith saw this teenager’s grades and determined that because she had a C average, she wasn’t mature
enough to make the decision to have an abortion. Apparently, however, he did think she was mature enough to go through with a pregnancy and have a child.
Granted, this questionable logic isn’t isolated to Smith. Anyway, just about a month after voters booted him from office through the ballot box in 2022, DeSantis appointed Smith (and Mize) to the Sixth District Court of Appeals. This year, he’s on the ballot again, up for a retention vote this time.
Judge Keith White: Possibly anti-abortion Judge Keith White was appointed to the 6th District Court of Appeals by DeSantis in 2022, officially joining the court in early January. White had previously served as a circuit judge on the 9th Judicial Circuit Court. He was appointed to that position by Gov. Charlie Crist in 2011. He also spent some time in the Maitland city government, serving in elected positions as a city councilman, then vice mayor. White is a member of the Federalist Society and a former member of the Orange County Young Republicans. As mentioned above, Florida Family Action likes him and wants him to stay on the bench. But there is little definitive information publicly available as it concerns his stance on abortion rights. news@orlandoweekly.com
GOP can maintain its supermajority even if Republicans lose four seats in November. The supermajority essentially allows Republicans to fully control procedural rules and limit efforts to block more hardline partisan politics.
A supermajority is “traditionally hard to keep,” Republican Party of Florida Chairman Evan Power said, when asked about Democrats’ efforts to cut into the GOP’s grip on the House.
“It will come down to turnout,” Power added.
“We are working to turn out every Republican voter so that we can be in a position to be extremely competitive.”
Here are some House races to watch:
— DISTRICT 35: Democrats are fiercely defending incumbent Rep. Tom Keen in a rematch against Erika Booth, a former school board member defeated by Keen in a special election earlier this year. Keen, a former U.S.
Navy flight officer, won the special election by about 600 votes. The seat, which includes parts of Orange and Osceola counties, was previously held by Rep. Fred Hawkins, a St. Cloud Republican who stepped down after being tapped as president of South Florida State College.
— DISTRICT 37: Democrats are hoping Nate Douglas of Oviedo, a former Orange Soil & Water Conservation District supervisor, can help the party recapture a Central Florida district that includes the University of Central Florida. Rep. Susan Plasencia, R-Orlando, wrested the seat from Democrat Carlos Guillermo Smith in 2022. A target of the GOP in 2022, Smith was elected to the state Senate this year without opposition. Democrats have a slight voter-registration edge in the district, which includes parts of Orange and Seminole counties.
— DISTRICT 38: A rematch is in the works between Rep. David Smith, a Winter Springs Republican seeking a fourth term, and Sarah Henry, a nonprofit worker from Altamonte Springs. Smith defeated Henry in 2022 by 3,019 votes in the Seminole County district that had a slight majority of registered Democrats heading into the August primary election.
— DISTRICT 45: Republican Rep. Carolina Amesty, R-Windermere, is trying to hold onto her seat while also facing felony charges. Former Disney executive Leonard Spencer is challenging Amesty, who was indicted by a grand jury on
forgery and other charges. Amesty is accused of forging a signature on a document she notarized as an administrator of her family-run school Central Christian University in Orange County. Amesty won the Republican-leaning seat that spans parts of Orange and Osceola counties with more than 53 percent of the vote in 2022.
— DISTRICT 47: Incumbent Paula Stark, R-St. Cloud, is facing Democrat Maria Revelles, an affordable housing advocate and union leader from Kissimmee, for the Central Florida seat. In 2022, Stark narrowly won the district, which includes parts of Osceola and Orange counties. Democrats have a slight voter-registration edge in the district.
— DISTRICT 106: In a high-profile contest, former state Rep. Joe Saunders is trying to unseat freshman legislator Fabian Basabe, a Miami Beach Republican. Sunders, a Democrat, represented the 49th District, including northern Orange County and the main campus of the University of Central Florida, from 2012 to 2014.
Saunders is also having to fend off a challenge from his aunt, Maureen Saunders Scott, who appears on the ballot as “Mo Saunders Scott.” A Miami-Dade County circuit judge denied Joe Saunders’ effort to remove his aunt, a resident of St. Johns County, from the ballot. The lawsuit argued Scott qualified to run to deceive voters and “siphon votes” from Joe Saunders.

Orlando’s largest beer festival returns to the heart of the Milk District this weekend for a day of craft beer tastings, entertainment and fun for everyone.
The 9th annual Orlando Beer Festival takes over Festival Park this Saturday, Nov. 2, offering Orlandoans the chance to sample a dazzling array of brews from local, regional and international breweries on tap and ready for you — as well as ciders, spritzers and spirits. And all of these refreshing tastes are included with the purchase of a ticket at orlandobeerfestival.com.
We love to showcase and support our area’s breweries. And there are plenty of worthies from around Central Florida repping at this year’s Festival, including Windermere Brewing Co., Salty Llama Brewing, Wop’s Hops Brewing, Persimmon Hollow Brewing, Deviant Wolfe Brewing and Ivanhoe Park Brewing. Modelo Aguas Fresca, Kona Big Wave, 3 Daughters Brewing, Florida Keys Brewing, Dee Bros Brewing and many more will also be slinging an array of drinks on Saturday.
But Orlando Beer Festival is about more than just sipping suds. Come for the craft brews, and stay for live music from Wilted Chilis and DJ ET all afternoon. The festival also features a crafts-galore marketplace with local vendors and artisans showcasing their creativity.
Maybe you need a bite or two to fortify you in between cold ones. Area food vendors will be posted up with light (and otherwise) bites including Let’s Make It Saucy, Jeremiah’s Ice, Maya’s Cafe and Phat Ash. VIP-exclusive food offerings include Jimmy Hula’s, Smoke & Donuts and Blue Jackets.
If live music is not your thing, an interactive game zone featuring carnival games and — of course — giant beer pong is another way to spend the day. But if you’d rather watch the game rather than play games, we’ve got you covered there too. College football fanatics can huddle up in front of a massive Jumbotron streaming the day’s games. And don’t forget to immortalize your day by snapping some pics at the Van Cam photo booth!
If you thought you’d have to leave your furry friends behind, fear not. Orlando Beer Fest is pet-friendly and offers a lure course for pooch pals to get the zoomies out so you can drink in relative peace.
“Since it started nine years ago, the fest has grown into so much more than a beer event,” says Graham Jarrett, Orlando Weekly publisher
and Orlando Beer Festival founder. “It’s truly one of Orlando’s great fall fests, featuring live music, giant games, local food and so much fun. We welcome everyone to come out and join us.”
With a variety of ticket tier levels, there is an access option for everyone. Designated Drive Tickets include entry and access to the Fest at the same time as the other members of your party. (You’ll still have fun, we promise.) General Admission includes early access to the College Tailgate Zone at 1 p.m., unlimited access to more than 150 beers, seltzers and more, and access to the GameZone, live entertainment and the vendor marketplace. General Admission Plus includes these benefits in addition to 12:30 p.m. tailgate access and onehour-early entry to the festival.
VIP tickets, which are almost sold out, include all GA benefits plus two-hour-early entry, a private VIP zone, first-come, first-served VIP parking, branded merch and exclusive bites.
We recommend you purchase tickets before the event to expedite entry.

FERTILIZE RESPONSIBLY
In the summer of 1939, a 10-year-old boy in Rhode Island sneaked into a screening of a brand-new film called The Wizard of Oz and was instantly entranced; the next week, he saw his first vaudeville show, where a puppet disturbed him so badly that he was thrown out of the theater for crying. With nickels saved from selling Christmas cards, he sent away for a marionette advertised inside the first-ever Superman comic book, and was soon supporting his family as a street performer. From that humble beginning, Sid Krofft, with his brother Marty, went on to build a brand that left an indelible mark on Generation X through trippy television programs like H.R. Pufnstuf and Land of the Lost. At age 95, Krofft still hosts a weekly “Sundays With Sid” Instagram Live show (@sidkrofft), and makes appearances at fan conventions like Spooky Empire (spookyempire.com), which was rescheduled after Hurricane Milton for this weekend at the Orange County Convention Center. Our Zoom interview ahead of his Florida visit lasted double the allotted time — and could have continued twice over again — because Sid has almost a century of celebrity-stacked anecdotes and strong opinions to share, including about …
His lifelong Florida connections:
In 1946 I came to Florida at the end of our tour — I was the world’s youngest puppeteer in the freak show of the Ringling Brothers Barnum & Bailey Circus. … Florida played a huge, huge part in my career, [especially] Miami, because I played the vaudeville house downtown with Mickey Rooney and Spike Jones and the
City Slickers… I was the opening act for Judy Garland’s first national tour [and] her last performance on that tour was at the Fontainebleau [hotel in Miami Beach]; then I worked there with Liberace twice, so I have a great love for Florida.
Creating puppet shows with grown-up appeal:
When I chose to be a puppeteer the rest of my life, I knew in order to have my 15 minutes of fame that I had to “go left.” I tell everybody, “Go left, because everybody goes right.” I took the plunge, and it wasn’t always successful. … I knew that nobody took that craft and took it into the adult world. I did, without being naughty or anything like that, [and] it was a plunge, but it became something like no one had ever seen before. So that’s always been my goal.
I was really nervous after we edited the first [H.R. Pufnstuf] show: “We’ve ruined our whole career. Little kids [will watch] that are 4 or 5 years old, but it’s so psychedelic, it’s so adult!”
Terrifying children with monsters like Sleestaks:
Walt Disney always scared the hell out of you, right at the opening usually — Bambi or whatever — and I picked up on all of that.
The network would always say to me over and over again, “We take a lot of flak from the FCC. We need to put some educational things in there.” I said, “No way … I’m not doing it. They go to school five days a week; this is their day, Saturday morning. I’m going to entertain them and fascinate them.” I don’t want to scare them [but] of course, kids got a little scared. I had to do that to get their attention. I know about getting your attention from being in show business.
Remakes and reboots:
I hate, hate, hate reboots. I don’t like [them],
and there’s usually a problem in Hollywood when they screw up a book so many times. … Look what they did to Land of the Lost [in] 2009; it was a $200 million Saturday Night Live joke. We just licensed it to Universal, and I knew right at the beginning this is going to be a big flop. Where’s my heart, where’s my baby dinosaur, where’s my family? And I asked that question. “No, we know what we’re doing.” Well, a lot of people got fired at Universal for that movie; there’s always someone to blame, but I had nothing to do with it.
His partnership with Marty, who died in 2023: He was only 19 or 18 years old when he came out to assist me, because in his yearbook, he said, “I want to be a puppeteer” — he wasn’t a puppeteer — “like my brother, and I want to change my name to Krofft.” So I thought, “He’s family.” I brought him out here, but from the very first day, we did not get along, ever. It’s sad to me. I didn’t even really know that he was leaving us until two days before; no one called. We hadn’t spoken in four years. The last time was when we got our star on the Walk of Fame.
I’m very sad about all of that, and so [are] most of the people that are still with us that saw it happen. That’s my statement, and I have to before I leave the planet straighten all that out. My legacy: That word is really important to me. Nobody’s going to change that.
Making convention appearances at 95: The main reason I do [conventions] at my age is because I need to touch the fans. I never did that. Their hearts, how they pour it out to me on what it meant to them growing up: It’s my fuel right now, I’m born again. … I can’t wait to come to Orlando. I really hope there are people there that remember me.

TIME AFTER TIME
Sorekara, William Shen’s high-concept stunner, is a commitment to time and a remembrance of things now BY
FAIYAZ KARA
“The tasting menu restaurant to end all tasting menu restaurants.” It could easily be Sorekara’s slogan if Sorekara expressed a bit of toxic gastro-linity, but that’s not the restaurant’s style. Nor is it how chef/co-owner William Shen rolls. He’s a fly-under-the-radar kinda guy, and as conceptual and philosophical and experiential as Sorekara is, the restaurant’s striking yet simple tableaux tell the story of time, its impermanence and the significance of every fleeting moment.
In a soaring anteroom, we’re asked to focus our attention on a large painting on which the words from 13th-century Japanese writer/ recluse Kamo no Chōmei’s literary work Hōjōki are etched — “The flowing river never stops and yet the water never stays the same. Foam floats upon the pools. Scattering. Re-forming. Never lingering long. So it is with man and all his dwelling places here on earth.”
That’s some heavy, contemplative stuff. Then we all pop a spherical pouch that looks like a tomato, only it’s made of tomato skin and filled with tomato water. (This was mid-August in Florida, after all — a time when tomatoes flourish as strongly as the state’s collective sense of hysteria.)
And after a procession down a very tranquil (and very gorgeous) hallway, we’re led to another room where a small bite and a mocktail are presented on a bar fashioned from a 900-year-old kusunoki tree. Compared to that aged wood, the lifespans of bite (a crispy tartlet with wild aged kanpachi belly with a plum-and-kumquat gel topped with ikura and lemon verbena) and drink (forgive me, but the ingredients of Josue Villacis’ wonderfully crafted quaff escaped me) were short, to say the least. And you can’t blame the impermanence of my memory; I mean, there were 20-plus dishes to be eaten through the course of the three-hour (or was it four-hour?) affair. Makes sense that a restaurant immersed in the temporal philosophy of sorekara (translation: “and then” in Japanese) would require a significant time commitment from guests. Yet to document every impeccably presented dish in detail, most of which are served on a 700-year-old live-edge counter in a bright room with floor-to-ceiling windows overlooking Lake Baldwin, would diminish the restaurant’s intent for every guest to experience Sorekara without any outside influence. The less a newbie patron knows, the better. In fact, photographs and videos are discouraged, so woe to the influencer.

But to not document at least some of the impeccably presented dishes in detail would diminish the intent of a restaurant review.
Shen’s creations are inspired by the 72 micro-seasons of Japan. So the menu, like that flowing river, never stays the same. The dishes I had on my first visit in March were entirely different than the ones I had in August. A fermented sea cucumber intestine fortified with a confit egg yolk and folded into a takoyaki-style pancake was replaced by horse mackerel stacked with daikon, marinated chard and black truffles sauced with a watercress nage and moussed with scallop and leek. The ingredients are very much Japanese and the relationships Shen has forged with Japanese farmers and fishermen means those goods get passed on to Sorekara’s patrons. Of the bites small and not so small, standouts included rice crackers compressed with icefish from Mount Fuji; Korean flounder with walnut, shiso and mustard; foie gras with strawberry, duck confit and Manchego cheese fumet; and a Hokkaido hairy crab tartlet with avocado and olive oil. Dishes also veer into French territory, and nothing says French fine dining more than squab. A marinated and seared breast along with a squab terrine, squab forcemeat and squab tea is how my most recent visit came to its savory end. I’d love to mention the gizzard shad stacked atop brown butter milk toast with avocado ice cream, figs and shiso; or the course served with a side of legerdemain (can’t say more); or head somm Jason Howick’s expertise and casual mien that made it easy for us to misbehave, but time’s a-tickin’.
Sorekara’s final act plays out in a plush room where pastry chef Francesco Benedetto gets to play and patrons get to pay, though not before getting stuffed with some novel takes on a PB&J “toast” and coffee and donuts. Benedetto’s tabletop Zen garden with various bonbons and mignardises made to look like rocks was an absolute class finale. Many (myself included) decry such high-ticket bastions of foam and fermentation where, in the name of Michelin, food is pricked, plumed and tweezed into submission to the point where the delicious joy of it all is lost. That said, Sorekara is more than just a restaurant. It’s art exhibit, cultural spectacle, philosophy class and architectural venue. It’s a device used to drive Shen’s food story forward — a story whose flowing moments aren’t meant to be appreciated in retrospect, but digested in real time. Oh, I neglected to mention the cost: $270 on paper, but nearly $350 after tax/tip/fees. And that doesn’t include drinks. At Sorekara, time is also money.

OPENINGS & CLOSINGS:
The Outpost Neighborhood Tavern, a new venture by Devon Tillman (former owner of Island Time/The Garden Bistro in Thornton Park) and John Teixeira (owner/commissioner of OUT Sports League) opens next spring in the former Persimmon Hollow Brewery space at 227 N. Eola Drive. The full-service restaurant will offer an American-inspired menu as well as a weekly drag brunch. If you’re wondering, the Outpost Neighborhood Tavern has no affiliation to the Outpost Neighborhood Kitchen, which shuttered under dubious circumstances last year at the Maitland City Centre. Might be a good idea to consider a name change … Rion’s Ocean Room, Sonny Nguyen’s walk-up Hawaiian-style poke shop, has opened in the old Skyebird Juice Bar space inside East End Market. Rion’s offers freshly prepared poke by the pound, half-pound and quarter-pound in spicy, shoyu and Hawaiian (sea salt and sweet onions) varieties, with the option to enjoy it over a bed of rice. Premium ahi from the North Atlantic, Bakkafrost salmon from Scotland, ono (wahoo) from the Caribbean sea and Mayport shrimp from North Florida are currently offered Zen Dumpling, the Jacksonville-based restaurant specializing in soup dumplings, steamed dumplings, pan-fried dumplings, fluffy pan-fried bao and boba tea, will open a location at 423 N. Alafaya Trail in the former Moe’s Southwest Grill space in Waterford Lakes, as well as at 420 E. Altamonte Drive in the old Anthony’s Coal Fired Pizza spot. No word on when, though … Additional details about The Chapman and The Chase Lounge, Artistry Restaurants’ 6,700-square-foot Park Avenue behemoth we told you about back in May: The Chapman’s Florida-centric menu will feature prime steaks, fresh catch from around the state, stone-fired pizzas, salads, artisan cheeses and local produce. The Chase Lounge will offer whiskeys, craft cocktails, and small plates and meals from its own lounge menu. Look for it to open “soon” … The Backyard, an outdoor dining experience that re-creates the feel of a backyard gathering, will open early next year at 2214 West Road in Ocoee. The open-air food park will feature six food vendors and an “open kitchen” stocked with a 24-tap selection of craft beers, wines and more … A ’90s-themed bakery, Yeast Coast Bakehouse, has officially opened at 1307 Edgewater Drive in College Park serving small-batch yeast-raised goods like cinnamon rolls, custard croissant buns and monkey bread. Hours are Friday-Sunday from 8 a.m. to 2 p.m.

LAMP & SHADE CRAFT KITCHEN AND COCKTAILS
Chef Ryan Stewart’s pan-Asian interpretations are a hit in any language, the charred baby bok choy and squid ink squid in particular. Really, nothing on the menu disappoints — from addicting Caeser salad bites on toasted brioche to shiitake risotto with wild mushrooms, miso and parm to mussels in green coconut curry. Cocktails are studied. Castella cake is the best way to cap your meal. Open daily. (reviewed Oct. 23) 1336 N. Mills Ave., 321-417-3477, throwsomeshadeorl.com, $$$
TOSHKA SYRIAN STREET FOOD
This food truck — permanently parked behind Longwood’s RI Smoke Shop — specializes in toshka, which are grilled pita sandwiches filled with lamb mince and cheese and served with a creamy garlic sauce. Pressed sujuk sandwiches, house-made chicken shawarma and golden-hued, donut-like falafel are also stellar offerings. Open daily. (reviewed Oct. 9) 1520 S.

Coro’s ever-evolving, always creative menu of Italian-leaning, globally inflected dishes is full of surprising and spectacular turns courtesy of chefowner Tim Lovero. Servers are as skilled as they come. And the wine list, while hyperfocused, is far from dull. One of the best restaurants to open in Orlando in 2024.

M’AMA NAPOLI
A waist-inflating array of Neapolitan pastries, pizzas, sandwiches and delectables crafted by a dough maestro makes M’ama Napoli a must-stop on any Winter Park food excursion. Focaccia sandwiches star, but pastries, be they bombolone, sfogliatelle or stuffed croissants, hog the spotlight. Neapolitan Kimbo beans are used for all coffee drinks. Closed Mondays.

AN VI VIETNAMESE KITCHEN
Friendly owners Joe and Rose Nguyen moved to Orlando from Seattle, leaving their restaurant Rainier Crawfish behind, so it’s no surprise the Cajun crossover options at An Vi feel honed — fried catfish banh mi proved perfectly crisp and clean, gumbo was a bowlful of soulful. The rest of the menu offers capably tasty Vietnamese options in an area of town not known for an abundance of such. (reviewed Sept. 4) 1052 FL-436, Casselberry, 321-972-1503, anvirestaurant.com, $$

Tigelle (pronounced “tea-jelly”) is a small round Italian flatbread, often sliced and stuffed with cheese, meats or sweets. It’s the belle of the ball at Ispirazione, where it’s made fresh daily and crisped to order. Sandwich fillings are high-quality, and the bread is lovely, crunchy and fluffy; house-made desserts are sweet and sparky.

Is Ômo by Jônt the finest restaurant in Orlando? Given the superlative ingredients, preparations and service inside this Winter Park chef’s tasting concept, it’s hard to argue otherwise. The progressive Japanese-leaning restaurant by chef Ryan Ratino of 2-Michelin star Jônt in Washington, D.C., is a must for anyone who lives to eat, rather than eats to live. (reviewed July 24) 115 E.

INCHIN’S BAMBOO GARDEN
The sizable Indo-Chinese menu at this Alpharetta, Georgia-based chain looks promising but the food, ultimately, fails to impress. If there is a dish that falls within the bounds of enjoyability, it’s the Cantonese noodles. The “Guangzhou Meets Bombay”branded dish with pickled chili tossed with cabbage, carrots, bell peppers and chives has all the crunchy-fiery feels. Open daily.

BAR KADA
The sake list impresses at this lounge joined at the hip to Soseki in Winter Park, but it’s chef Mike Vang’s Japanese-leaning dishes incorporating global flavors that leave guests wanting to linger.

The
26th Central Florida Jewish
Film Festival embraces culture and history in five feature films
BY CAMERON MEIER
The most popular of Enzian Theater’s mini-festivals, the Central Florida Jewish Film Festival will screen five features and one short starting this Saturday. Co-presented by Shalom Orlando, the event will be held at the Orlando Science Center and Enzian.
Jewish film fests have a surprisingly short history. The San Francisco Jewish Film Festival, founded in 1980, is considered the oldest and largest. In contrast, film festivals in general have been around since 1932, when the Venice International Film Festival was born. But Jewish fests have been steadily on the rise over the last 40 years and now number more than 100 worldwide.
Enzian’s fest has been a beacon for the Orlando Jewish community, and for the city’s overall culture, for 26 years. The event has been scaled back from four days to three this year to avoid Election Day, according to Matthew Curtis, programming director. In addition to film, the event offers Jewish cuisine, plus the theater’s regular fare. The special menu includes potato latkes, holishkes, bagels and lox, Hebrew National hot dogs and Dr. Brown’s sodas.
The event begins at the Orlando Science Center at 7:45 p.m. Saturday, Nov. 2 (after sundown, to honor the Sabbath) with The Performance, in which Jeremy Piven plays Harold May, an aging Jewish-American tap dancer bumming his way around small European clubs in 1936. His troupe is talented but struggling for recognition and funds. So when he is offered a Berlin show for a prestigious Nazi audience and a large check, he can’t resist. Much like Colonel Nicholson in The Bridge on the River Kwai, Harold is so motivated by the job that he forgets for whom he is working. Writer-director Shira Piven’s tale, based on a 2002 Arthur Miller story, grapples with tone and, like Harold, initially struggles to find its footing. But the history and morality lessons are memorable, as is her brother’s performance. You might even find yourself wondering, if faced with a similar situation, would you dance for the devil? Also filled with interesting questions is Unspoken (11 a.m. Sunday, Nov. 3), a coming-ofage narrative getting its Florida premiere. After his grandfather’s death, a closeted gay American teenager named Noam discovers he might share

says, “We did have a couple of good docs that were in the mix at the final selections meeting, but the committee just felt stronger about the five narrative features that were chosen.”
The feature is accompanied by Judy-ism, a short dramedy about a Jewish woman contemplating her life on the eve of her wedding.
Another enjoyable comedy-drama about family bonds, All About the Levkoviches (4:15 p.m. Monday, Nov. 4) concerns a father and son (Zoltán Bezerédy and Tamás Szabó Kimmel, in fine performances) who haven’t spoken in eight years after the son became ultra-religious and moved from the family’s Hungarian home to Israel. When the family matriarch unexpectedly dies, the two undergo an uncomfortable but ultimately revelatory reunion.
something else with his grandfather besides Judaism: sexual orientation. Noam’s research reveals not just truth about the Holocaust and his family’s past but himself too.
Considering its great story and relatable performance by Charlie Korman as Noam, writer-director Jeremy Borison’s film is disappointingly pedestrian and never achieves the emotional highs it should, even when revealing its twists. It will find its audience, as it did at the Los Angeles Jewish Film Festival, where it won best narrative. But if you’re looking for one film to skip, this is it.
If the first two films offer an undergraduate discussion of morality and religion, the fest’s third, Stay With Us (literally Rest a Little in French) (2 p.m. Sunday, Nov. 3), is at a doctorate level. Half drama, half comedy, and half fiction, half documentary, the French film from famous comedian Gad Elmaleh examines the bonds of religion and family. Elmaleh, his sister and their parents — playing slightly fictionalized versions of themselves — clash over Gad’s conversion from Judaism to Catholicism.
“Return to your religion, the one we gave you,” implores his father.“You’re our son. And we don’t want to lose you.”
The genre-bending movie is the fest’s best and most original thanks to its many nuggets of wisdom, such as a rabbi’s advice to “never ask directions from someone who knows the way, or you will never be able to get lost. … You’re fortunate to be lost.”
Stay With Us is as close to a doc as the fest gets. Regarding the lack of true documentaries, Curtis
After a traditional shivah ceremony is forced upon him, the father confronts his son: “You don’t get to tell me how to mourn. What do you know about my pain?”
His son might not understand his pain, but director Adam Breier does, and he mines that pain to produce a fine film.
The fest’s most lavish production is Shoshana (6:45 p.m. Monday, Nov. 4), writer-director Michael Winterbottom’s epic drama about violence in British Palestine in the late 1930s and early 1940s.
Zionist Shoshana Borochov (Irina Starshenbaum) and British policeman Thomas Wilkin (Douglas Booth) are lovers on opposite sides of the conflict but with respect for each other, while Tom’s boss, Geoffrey Morton (Harry Potter’s Harry Melling, who steals the show), is determined to quell protests in any way possible. The characters’ real-life stories are slightly altered but retain the heart of the truth and thereby provide a valuable history lesson.
The love affair feels sandwiched in and forgotten at times, while the entire narrative is occasionally jumbled and rushed. Nevertheless, the film is an important reminder that the Middle East has been blowing itself apart for well over a century. The dates might change, but violence remains constant. The one positive is that we have films, and festivals, like this to educate us, in hopes that we might one day break the cycle.
A “mensch” pass, which includes priority seating to all films and a donation to Shalom Orlando, costs $118; a series pass, which includes second-priority seating to all films, is $65; and a single ticket goes for $14. For more information, visit enzian.org.

Children of the Church Steps — Real-life events are the basis for a gritty drama in which four friends head toward a rendezvous with destiny while living on the streets of Brazil.

The Manhattan Alien Abduction — Unlike In Search Of and Unsolved Mysteries, this docuseries focuses on a single case: that of New Yorker Linda Napolitano, who may or may not have been spirited away from her apartment by extraterrestrials. I’m calling shenanigans, because a real New Yorker wouldn’t let Martians pry her away from her parking space, let alone a halfway decent one-bedroom. (Netflix)

Don’t Come Home — When a Thai woman’s daughter disappears from their spooky family estate, it’s up to a pregnant police officer to get to the bottom of things.

Tú También lo Harías (You Would Do It Too) — Eyewitness reports prove wildly inconsistent after the attempted robbery of a Spanish bus leaves three of the would-be thieves dead.

Premieres Thursday:
The Diplomat Season 2 —Now that U.S. ambassador to the U.K. Kate Wyler (Keri Russell) has figured out the “enemy” attack on a British warship was actually an inside job, how can she pursue justice without jeopardizing our country’s relationship with one of its closest international allies? “Sucks to be her,” chortles Bibi Netanyahu, stuffing his mouth with Fiddle Faddle and then wiping his lips with a tattered copy of the Logan Act.

Let Go — A teenage girl’s performance in a pole-dancing contest may be the key to keeping her dysfunctional family together in a movie that’s a kind of Swedish take on Little Miss Sunshine. The main difference is that this flick is meant as a straight-ahead drama, because the Swedes obviously take their pole dancing dead serious. (Netflix)
Premieres Saturday:
Your Friendly Neighborhood Spider-Man — Hudson Thames from What If once again provides the voice of Spidey, this time for an animated series set in an alternate universe where Peter Parker was mentored by Norman Osborn rather than Tony Stark. Could be worse, right? He could have had Jonathan Majors as a wing man instead of Jacob Batalon. (Disney+)
Premieres Tuesday:
Love Village — Season 2 introduces a new cast of Japanese singles ages 35 to 60 who are looking for what the show calls “their final love.” When you’re only 35, that’s either a sign of extreme optimism or a warning to the cops that you’re thiiiiis close to committing a murder-suicide. (Netflix)

Jump in the chat with EBM OGs Nitzer Ebb
BY TYLER BARNEY
Bon Harris is as upbeat as they come. The English composer behind electronic music group Nitzer Ebb — more on that name later — learned early on that optimism is the only option for making it through tough times.
“Anytime there’s political and social unrest, that’s where the good bands come from,” he sings to the Orlando Weekly choir. “It was a sign of the times when a lot of noise musicians and musicians in general — including us — were on welfare. How much of the English music scene from the 1980s wouldn’t exist if there wasn’t a benefit system?”
One shudders to think, but thankfully for us, there was. Harris met the group’s other co-founders during such down times, and the Essex trio subsequently bonded over their mutual interests.
“Dave (Gooday) and Douglas (McCarthy) lived in the next village along from me. We were all into skateboarding, and music is hand in hand
with skating,” he recalls. The new mates soon saved up enough from odd jobs to buy what gear they could find.
“People often ask me, ‘What drum machine did you use when you started out?’” Harris says. “We didn’t use a drum machine. We had a bunch of drums, pieces of metal, a microphone and a PA,” he continues. “We didn’t even have a full kit because none of us could play it. So it was just like a stand-up drum kit. Really trashy kind of garage stuff.”
In keeping with their experimental mindset, the members of Nitzer Ebb often rotated instruments in the early days.
“We’d take turns doing different things,” Harris says.“Each of us would have a turn singing a song here and there to try and mix it up. Most of the time I was on synth, Doug was singing and Dave was drumming.”
Though their roles have changed over the years, the project’s belief system remains
unchanged. “We’ve always been very committed to our principles and our ideals, which are firmly aligned with social justice and equality and fairness,” Harris says.“As I get older, I become even more entrenched in it,” he adds.“When I see the way things are going, unbridled capitalism is clearly not working.”
Taking cues from anarcho-punk pioneers Crass, Bon and the gang developed a “very punk rock approach” inspired by their neighboring Englishmen.
“We’ve always been fascinated by the idea of being an electronic punk band or electronic rock band, rather than an electronic dance band,” Harris says. While he “wasn’t so keen on the music” of Crass, Harris “absolutely love[d] the aesthetic and artwork and how they presented it.”
Harris also cites the Dada movement as a major influence on the band’s graphic design and direction. In addition to the three musicians forming its sonic DNA, the Nitzer Ebb lineup features an in-house graphic designer — Simon Granger — who often plays synths during the band’s live performances.
“The music was the primary thrust,” Harris says, “but we took a great deal of care about all the other aspects of it.”
After self-releasing a demo and several singles, the Ebb found a flow on their first album. Their 1987 debut on British powerhouse Mute Records, That Total Age — widely considered the trio’s definitive work — opened the door to a worldwide tour supporting synth-pop titans Depeche Mode.

If you’ve stepped boot in a goth club lately (read: ever), there’s a devil’s chance in hell you’ve bobbed your body to the singles that have made this album an underground staple to this day.
Ahem, night.
Now: about that name.
“We wanted something that sounded vaguely European, but not specifically European,” Harris says. “So we cut up letters and rearranged them until something started to suggest itself, and the name came out of that.”
And there you have it — but how do you say it?
“There is no correct pronunciation,”Harris says.
“We’ve said night-sir from the beginning. But when we first started coming to the States, we heard people pronouncing it nit-sir. So, if you like to say nit-sir: You carry on. And if you like to say night-sir: You carry on.”
We couldn’t have said it better ourselves.
Nitzer Ebb opens November with a bang this Saturday at the Abbey. Bring your body and let it learn.

This time next week, America could be headed for a new enlightenment or a new dark age. The stakes are that fucking real. One candidate, Kamala Harris, will instantly mark a new, forward chapter for our country. The other, Trump, is the agent of all the social peril in which we’ve been living and promises more until generations of progress, and even the very foundation of America, is unraveled.
This presidential election is the biggest one in our lifetime, and it’s way too close and consequential to sit out. Now’s the time to clap back against the war on women, minorities, marginalized communities and basic decency that’s been happening. Early voting in Orange County is now until Nov. 3 at 8 p.m., and then election day voting is Nov. 5 until 7 p.m. Go vote hard.
LOCAL RELEASES
While the national hype was building at the dawn of this decade for Orlando progressive hip-hop group Seeyousoon, many were just as astounded they could keep it all together as a nine-member crew. But for all the creative energy it gave them, their size turned out to be a terminal issue.
Co-founding rapper Joshua, whose solo moniker is Wahid, says, “Seeyousoon ended up breaking up due to some creative and personal differences.” The crash and burn of the on-thecusp collective gutted him. But it also became the fire that forged the phoenix that’s now Wahid, who’s rising anew on his own with brand-new album THEY ALL GO MAD!
The eight-song collection is Wahid’s second release this year on tastemaking L.A. label Innovative Leisure. Both it and its predecessor — the Feast, by Ravens EP — are Wahid’s first works since Seeyousoon’s implosion, and they openly bear the wounds. If the previous EP was
Wahid coming to terms and finding his sea legs again, THEY ALL GO MAD! is him back at the helm with full sails and a vengeance.
“I guess the fallout merely fortified my focus on my own art and creativity,” Wahid says. On this new album, his pain has sharpened into a chip on the shoulder. Even with the effortless flow of rhyme and song throughout, these tracks bite with incision. It’s in full force with Wahid’s vocals, which snap with the crisp, articulated fundamentals of golden-age MCs. Yet the vivid framing is a tight foil for the futuristic vapors of electronic, R&B, soul, dub and jazz herein.
Whatever anguish lingers within him is now chiseled determination. This new album is the full reemergence of Wahid, at once back to himself and newly armed with earned depth. THEY ALL GO MAD! now streams everywhere.
CONCERT PICKS THIS WEEK
The Helena Collective: This presidential election will be the most crucial one in modern history. And in so many ways — from the chance to elect the first female president to basic bodily autonomy — it’s all about women. To that

pressing end, all-female vocal group the Helena Collective will both perform and rally with a special program titled “What Happens When a Woman: A Get Out the Vote Concert.” Already longtime champions of women in music and literature, the local ensemble is presenting its most timely show ever. The program will honor the legacy of female leaders to inspire representation at the polls and, well, ensure the salvation of our society. All right, ladies, let’s do this. (7:30 p.m. Friday, Nov. 1, Timucua Arts Foundation, $30)
Christian Nodal: In a constantly shifting pop-music landscape, Mexican superstar Christian Nodal is running a contemporary clinic on how to do traditional music right. The mariacheño pioneer has risen to the big time with his lush blend of mariachi’s brass and strings with norteño’s accordion, doubling down on Mexico’s instrumental splendor to yield exponential results. Nodal’s award-winning recipe invokes all the romantic grandeur of traditional Mexican music but spices it with just enough modern swag to make it fresh and cross-generationally resonant. (7 p.m. Friday, Nov. 1, Kia Center, $61-$181)
Vote Loud: Rock Tonight, Vote Tomorrow: On the eve of election day — otherwise known this year as the make-or-break of American civilization — this local showcase is a representation and reminder of some of the things at stake. Feminist punks M.A.C.E., indie rockers Paperback Romance, pop-prog punks Valley in the Sky and alt-rockers Black Heart Society will rock you to vote and raise funds for two Florida groups fighting the good fight: climate activist group GenCLEO and queer/ trans liberation nonprofit Queer Trans Project. Go support, then back it up on the ballot. (7 p.m. Monday, Nov. 4, Will’s Pub, $10-$15) baolehuu@orlandoweekly.com

WEDNESDAY, OCT. 30
Raymond Watts has been a pivotal figure in industrial music since the 1980s, and he wants to spend Devil’s Night with you, Orlando. Watts has done it all during his decades reveling in the filth of the underground — musical and otherwise — whether as a key early member of KMFDM, sharing stages with Einstürzende Neubauten and Foetus, providing sonics for Alexander McQueen, or influencing a young and impressionable Trent Reznor. But it’s solo venture Pig that’s Watts’ true passion project. Whether you know them from early albums like Wax Trax release A Poke in the Eye or the mainstream-scraping 1994 album Sinsation, it’s time to welcome new Pigmusick into your life: The latest mini-album, Feast of Agony, hit the streets in late September and now Watts is doing the full Dorian Gray, musically and otherwise, on stages across the country. It’s fittingly apocalyptic that he’s playing Orlando tonight. 7 p.m., Conduit, 6700 Aloma Ave. Winter Park, conduitfl.com, $20. Matthew Moyer

Zara Larsson
Swedish dance-pop purveyor Zara Larsson wants you to be a part of her symphony at her House of Blues performance this week. Though Larsson’s earlier hits — 2016’s “This One’s for You” with David Guetta or 2017’s “So Good” with Ty Dolla $ign — tend to steal the internet spotlight, tracks from her new LP, Venus, prove Larsson hasn’t lost her club-classic touch. From new jam “On My Love,” an ode to unending affection behind pulsating rhythms, to the familiar-ish “Memory Lane,” a lyrical trip through Larsson’s youth, fans can expect a blend of the Swede chanteuse’s top tracks and latest tunes. She’s certainly got enough chart-toppers and TikTok faves to choose from. New-to-the-game pop princess Sam Short opens, bringing a chic vibe and low, sultry vocals.

TRUTH
During the past 15 years, Fringe fixture Martin Dockery has taken Orlando audiences on over a dozen delirious head trips with his award-winning serio-comic absurdist scripts. But this weekend, on the eve of the election, he’s making an unusual appearance outside the Festival to explore something even more inexplicable than an inescapable party: America’s presidential politics. Dockery will perform his latest solo show, TRUTH, in Central Florida for the first (and likely last) time ever. Dockery received rave reviews in Edmonton, Winnipeg and Minneapolis for this autobiographical comedy about going stir-crazy with his wife and kid while our country’s connection to objective reality unravels, thanks in large part to a certain orange ex-president. Based on Dockery’s track record and TRUTH’s rib-tickling teaser trailer, you can expect an explosively emotional and exuberantly entertaining evening that will leave you laughing all the way to the polls on Tuesday. 7:30 p.m., Starlite Room, Savoy, 1913 N. Orange Ave., martindockery.com, $20. — Seth Kubersky

Spooky Empire
In much the same way that you can’t keep a good monster (Frankenstein, Jason, Art the Clown) down, so Spooky Empire has quickly risen from a seemingly mortal blow dealt by Hurricane Milton in early October and is back, baby — the day after Halloween, in fact. Through some frankly impressive and nimble logistical wrangling, the local horror convention has gotten most of its original roster of celebrity guests back on board … and has even added a Cure cover band and Curse Mackey DJ set. So welcome back to author Clive Barker — truly the glittering crown jewel of the guest roster — flanked by a few Cenobites, Lili Taylor, Alicia Witt, Michael Gross, Sid Krofft, Rosanna Arquette, Kristy Swanson, William Forsythe, sundry cast members of the original Fright Night and more. Expect plenty of spooky vendors, film screenings, panels and cosplay. Orange County Convention Center, 9800 International Drive, spookyempire. com, $40-$90. — MM

Boy is a milestone album for a generation of millennials and it continues to get its weepy hooks into new fans to this day. Frontman Max Bemis and company have been on the road for much of the year revisiting and reinterpreting this album — still a surprising turn of events after Bemis put the band on the shelf in 2019. But after a surprise 2023 reunion, grateful crowds come out in force to sing their lives every damn time. 7 p.m., The Beacham, 46 N. Orange Ave., foundation-presents.com, $38-$45. — LD/MM

Bob the Drag Queen
Grab a seat at the Plaza Live this weekend as Bob the Drag Queen takes the stage. Bob is the alter ego of nonbinary actor and comedian Caldwell Tidicue, who won the title of “America’s Next Drag Superstar” on the eighth season of RuPaul’s Drag Race in 2016. Her drag shows are a unique blend of comedy, song, connection and social commentary with charisma and poise to spare. She’s the total package, really: an actress with roles on HBO and Netflix; a singer with several singles under her belt; businessperson running a clothing line and cosmetic company; and co-host of the popular “Sibling Rivalry Podcast” with Monet X Change, which won an Outstanding Podcast Award from GLAAD Media. Bob said it best herself: “I’m hilarious, beautiful, talented and humble.” 6 p.m., Plaza Live, 425 N. Bumby Ave., plazaliveorlando.org, $29-199. — KA

Loose Lips: Election Night Special Edition
Since 2016, the first Tuesday of every month finds a loose collection of word people — poets, comedians, rambling raconteurs — mic in hand at Lil Indie’s doing that spoken word thing with one special condition: The words must reflect the events
of the day. The resulting entertainment falls somewhere between a poetry slam and a high-school current events oral report. But in November, the first Tuesday of the month is also, well, you know. So the events of the day are sure to be … rich with performance prompts, shall we say. Hosts Tod Caviness and Dianne Turgeon Richardson promise, “While most of Orlando is huddled under their couches waiting to see if a convicted sex offender and felon will become (once again) leader of the free world, we’ll be highlighting the absurdity of
it all with an all-star lineup of local authors and comedians including Ryan Rivas (Burrow Press), Veronica Smith (Vulgar Geniuses podcast), Larry Fulford (What Do You Want From Us?) and more. We may even round out the night with a visit from a Very Special Guest (her name rhymes with (Shmanna Shmeskamani).” It will be a very chill and normal night, no doubt! Suuuuuuuper relaxed. 8 p.m., Lil Indie’s, 1036 N. Mills Ave., willspub.org, free. — Jessica Bryce Young
