On this episode of The Middle Ground with Tom Letizia, we dive into two powerful conversations shaping our community.

At 8:00 AM, Family Court Judge Margaret Pickard joins us to share her journey of fairness, integrity, and dedication to families in Clark County. With over 25 years in the legal profession, Judge Pickard discusses her experience as a Justice of the Peace pro tempore, her leadership as President of the Heaven Can Wait Animal Society, and her vision for building a court system rooted in ethics, compassion, and accountability.

At 8:30 AM, we welcome Brian Scroggins, CEO of the Emergency Management Foundation. Brian opens up about his unique role as a chaplain serving the Las Vegas Metropolitan Police Department’s Southeast Command, Las Vegas Fire & Rescue, and Clark County Fire. He explains how his foundation supports volunteer chaplains across multiple jurisdictions, providing vital resources and emotional support to first responders on the frontlines. From listening to those in crisis to offering prayers and guidance, Brian highlights the human side of emergency response that often goes unseen.

Together, these conversations shine a light on the themes of justice, service, and community—hallmarks of what The Middle Ground strives to deliver: politics and public service without partisan spin.
