The Georgia Hour, episode 98: Georgia GOP Convention Scandal: Mics Rigged, Attendees Demand Refunds!

The 2025 Geor­gia GOP State Con­ven­tion in Dal­ton sparked out­rage as AA Pro­duc­tions, alleged­ly under Josh McKoon’s instruc­tions, selec­tive­ly con­trolled micro­phones to silence dis­sent. Social media is ablaze with demands for refunds, with many cit­ing a lack of par­tic­i­pa­tion and a “stolen” con­ven­tion. Explore the con­tro­ver­sy, includ­ing ties between AA Pro­duc­tions and Bri­an Kemp’s appointees, and how atten­dees are dis­put­ing charges for a con­ven­tion they say failed to deliv­er.

• In Geor­gia we have vot­ed on these click­ers at our recent state con­ven­tion. 
• Salleigh Grubbs was installed as the first vice chair with the help of the GRA and the click­ers. Yes­ter­day Salleigh went on the John Fred­er­icks Show (Godzil­la of BS) to say that women need not apply. If you think it is a boys club, so does Salleigh Grubbs. New GOP offi­cer Salleigh Grubbs says women can’t win Geor­gia’s top job. MTG went on the stage Sat­ur­day to say some things that we would like to hear Burt Jones say. Salleigh said no MTG for you, no Rea­gan Box either. But repub­li­cans don’t get involved in pri­maries. Remem­ber Salleigh has told you that she and Josh have talked. Who wrote the arti­cle AJC and who is post­ing it on social media AJC. 
• Every­one cir­cled the wag­on for Josh McK­oon but Bri­an Kemp. Why? Kemp didn’t want to hurt the lie that Josh McK­oon is a Trump sup­port­er. There were peo­ple wear­ing Trump hats and Josh McK­oon shirts. Now if Kemp would have endorsed McK­oon peo­ple would not have vot­ed for Josh. 
• The posts of accounts of the GA GOP State Con­ven­tion are enor­mous. We know the mics are only turned on and off by direc­tion. There was train­ing for Robert’s Rules. You learned about how to do things, and zero was imple­ment­ed at the con­ven­tion. AA Pro­duc­tions con­trolled the mics. Check out how much mon­ey the repub­li­can par­ty has paid AA Pro­duc­tions, check out who the CEO is and who he is friends with, check out the state com­mit­tee of the film indus­try has the CEO in the com­mit­tee appoint­ed by Bri­an Kemp. The AA Pro­duc­tions direc­tor says that he is only able to turn on the mics as Josh McK­oon instructs. The minute she said her name they turned off her mic and turned off Brant Frost’s mic with­out the chairs instruc­tion. Then ego­tis­ti­cal Brant Frost stole the moment and made the nom­i­na­tion from mic 3. The Frost fam­i­ly has want­ed revenge for two years. This was the Frost revenge day. Katie, Brant Frost’s sis­ter, talked trash about David Cross from the stage. 
• David Cross is con­test­ing the lack of a con­ven­tion. The GRA par­tic­i­pat­ed in the stolen con­ven­tion. GRA…friends of Bri­an Kemp. He is not con­test­ing it for what the click­ers said but he is con­test­ing it based on the fact that we did not have a con­ven­tion. 
• BKP state­ment: Not legal advice: BKP has been going to con­ven­tions for years. Peo­ple have $1000 invest­ed in these con­ven­tions. Social media is lit up with peo­ple want­i­ng their mon­ey back. If you are a card hold­er you have a right to make a claim as long as you think there is a legit­i­mate rea­son for you not to pay the bill. You can dis­pute a tan­gi­ble item or ser­vice. You have to con­tact the per­son that pro­vid­ed the ser­vice. Write the GA GOP Inc a sim­ple note that you were not pro­vid­ed ser­vices or the abil­i­ty to par­tic­i­pate in the state con­ven­tion and give them an oppor­tu­ni­ty to say no. You need to have that record.
