Danielle Hanosh wants us all to take a LEAP in the best way possible. Her organization LEAP stands for Leaders for Ethics, Animals, and the Planet. Their mission: to transform today's youth into the humane leaders of tomorrow who advocate for and work towards an equitable future for all living beings and the planet. LEAP is a revolutionary humane education program providing high school students across the nation with a compassionate alternative to traditional agriculture programs like 4H and FFA. A comprehensive four-year program taught by participating farm animal sanctuaries, LEAP combines interactive curriculum modules with hands-on learning activities, leadership training, and real-world skill development. If Whitney is right and the children are our future and we should teach them well and let them lead the way, then we all need to take one big good LEAP together, donchathink? ___________________________________________ Steve is busy at work on the third book in his cozy mystery series, THE DOG WALKING DETECTIVES.

This week the American Landscape Painter Kim Casebeer whose career spans some 25 years and whose work is shown in private, corporate and museum collections throughout the United States. Kim is represented in galleries from Colorado to Wyoming, Montana, Arizona and her home state of Kansas. She is, she says, in a good place in her career now balancing her time between studio commissioned work, plein air painting and teaching workshops. Kim was born in Newton, KS in 1970 and grew up in the tiny town of Goessel, KS with her two younger sisters Trish and Jenny. Her father Lloyd is a retired farmer and mother Marlene, a retired nurse. Kim's family are fifth generation farmers so her childhood was spent learning to grow a variety of crops and compete in the local 4H club where her talent as a horticulturist was noteworthy. An early interest in all things artistic was encouraged by her parents from drawing tractors with her dad to learning a variety of mediums through high school. It was a natural progression for Kim to choose art school as she laid the foundation for her career by graduating with a Bachelor in Fine Arts from Kansas State University with an emphasis in Graphic Design in 1992. It was here that she met Shannon and the couple recently celebrated their 31st wedding anniversary. Upon graduating, Kim's first jobs were in graphic design with her art work pursued as a hobby. It was only when her paintings were generating more income than her employment that Kim decided it was time to quit her day job and focus on being a full-time artist in 2001. Kim is a Master Signature Member of the American Women Artists, and a Signature Member of the Oil Painters of America and the Pastel Society of America. She has received multiple awards and publicity for her work that focuses on the big skies and wide open spaces of the western United States. Kim lives in Manhattan, KS with her husband Shannon, sons Collin and Lucas, and Australian Shepherd, Matilda. Kim's links:https://www.kimcasebeer.com/https://www.instagram.com/kimcasebeerartist/ Some favorite female artists in visual arts:Kami MendlikChula BeauregardJane HuntCindy BaronShanna HernandezMelissa Scott MillerJan BeaneyChiharu ShiotaHost: Chris StaffordProduced by Hollowell StudiosFollow @theaartpodcast on InstagramThe AART Podcast on YouTubeEmail: theaartpodcast@gmail.comBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/wisp--4769409/support.

Mike revisits where his career first began—the National Land and Range Judging Contest. He sits down with three North Dakota 4-H'ers at the 74th annual contest to uncover their experiences, what they learn and how the event prepares them for a future in farming.   Plus, we're joined by Larry Wright, one of the contest's officials to explore how the event emphasizes the importance of protecting our resources through land, range and homesite judging.

The Pig Squeal is a cute name, but it has far reaching connotations well beyond the kids and their hogs. Athletes will tell you how much their coach meant to their life well after their playing days. A teacher's impact on their students often stays with them every day, not unlike their parents' influence. Saturday's Pig Squeal, as Extension Agent Wendy Padgett said, is the culmination of several months of kids learning so much more than just raising a couple of pigs. Padgett explained the day-to-day obligations, requirements, care and needs the 4H students have for the animals in today's...Article Link

We temporarily leave the Billie Sol Estes Mini-Series and pivot now to a Mini-Series on Mac Wallace. Today's episode is the  third in our story about  Wallace as  we cover the  Douglas Kinser murder trial. Wallace was charged and convicted of the murder but received only  a five year sentence which was suspended. In Texas at the time, this was  a crime that for most people, would have put them in the electric chair. Defended by Lyndon Johnson's  own attorney John Cofer and provided bail by two of Johnson's closer associates, the implications are that Johnson was at the very least taking steps to carefully control the trial and its outcome. Many believe that Johnson's objective was to keep his sister Josefa out of the trial and avoid perhaps exposing some of Johnson's corrupt practices. Others were more nefarious in their assessment of Johnson's motives, believing perhaps that Wallace was sent to silence Kinzer after Kinzer attempted to blackmail Johnson through Josefa. All of this possibly coming about, after Josefa said too much to Kinzer  about Johnson's  involvement in the 1948 stolen senate election and perhaps other dealings of Johnson. According to this line of thinking, Kinzer was attempting to strong arm Johnson  and secure an SBA loan to improve the operations of his Pitch and Putt golf course.  You now know most of the scandalous aspects of Estes and how Wallace might have fit in...and it wont be much longer, after the Wallace Mini-Series, that you will hear the story of  Bobby Baker. These men were all members of Johnson's Texas inner circle.  Oh, and there is more on the  Billie Sol Estes affair, so be patient and stay tuned  and you will hear it before we complete the  larger series covering  these four men.  Wallace was indeed a convicted murderer and we take you through the crime in this episode. The murder of Doug Kinser. It will be up to you to determine if this was a crime of passion that did not define who the rather intellectual  Wallace really was, or whether it was symptomatic of his core and the cold blooded killer that Billie Sol Estes made him out to be. All of these  men were quite intertwined around Johnson at the time of the assassination. They  were involved in circumstances that were closing in on Johnson too and that provided him great motive in the killing of the President.  The story is extraordinary.  After hearing of Wallace's possible involvement in multiple murders related to the Estes scandal and possibly even President Kennedy's  murder,  it is time to learn more about just who Mac Wallace really was.  Sit back and enjoy this Mini-Series covering Wallace.Rumors of Johnson's involvement began to swirl almost immediately after the President's assassination and there is a defined school of thought within the JFK assassination research community that staunchly believes in Johnson's involvement. His involvement  in both the assassination and its cover up. Join us in one of the most fascinating story tells of the Kennedy assassination and stick around as we will be returning to the Mexico City series right after we complete this min-series that was spawned by the recent release of the Billy Sol Estes and Cliff Carter tape that the two recorded in 1971. Folks, you just can't write this stuff. Even as early as 1964, rumors and serious concerns over  the lone gunman theory and the evidence that might contravene it,  were becoming a major concern for the government and the commission. Conspiracy theories were contrary to the government's stated narrative from the very beginning.

This is Part 12 in the series that covers the story of Billy Sol Estes, Mac Wallace, Bobby Baker and other members of Johnson's Texas inner circle. Part 12 continues  the story of Billy Sol Estes and addresses the episode which occurred in 1984 when Estes balked after agreeing to tell all to the Department of Justice. Estes had just gotten out of prison for the second time and was pursuing a book deal through the Moody Foundation when he hooked up with prominent Washington attorney Douglas Caddy.  The book deal was lucrative and Estes may have needed the money.  But he also needed immunity because he was going to discuss murders....lots of them, including the murder of JFK. After being boxed in at the Marshall grand jury proceedings by DA John Paschall, Estes had to make lemons out of his lemonades.  Listen in on what happened...and how Estes balked at the last minute after striking a deal with the assistant U.S. attorney of the Criminal Division at the Department of Justice. Hear Douglas Caddy tell much of the story in his own words. Caddy, a prominent Washington attorney took up the cause, but he too would be hoodwinked by Estes, when Estes at the last moment, refused to meet with the  FBI and justice department officials. All of these  men who were quite intertwined around Johnson at the time of the assassination. They  were involved in circumstances that were closing in on Johnson too and that provided him great motive in the killing of the President.  The story is extraordinary.  Rumors of Johnson's involvement began to swirl almost immediately after the President's assassination and there is a defined school of thought within the JFK assassination research community that staunchly believes in Johnson's involvement.

This is Part 11 in the series that covers the story of Billy Sol Estes, Mac Wallace, Bobby Baker and other members of Johnson's Texas inner circle. Part 11 continues  the story of Billy Sol Estes and addresses the 1962 grand jury that addressed whether Henry Marshall's death was a suicide or a murder.  It is in this episode that we introduce the famed Texas lawman Clint Peoples.  People and his boss at the Texas Department of Public Safety were some of the few in law enforcement who saw the farce that was being put on by Sherriff Stegall and they stood up to it. It would be the beginning of a life long pursuit of the truth by Peoples. A pursuit to find the truth related to the Marshall murder and uncover the corruption that that lay there in the open as the onion was peeled back and powerful began to be exposed including LBJ. All of these  men who were quite intertwined around Johnson at the time of the assassination.

Kendal Niemeier was nominated as a Beck's Player with Heart for her commitment and passion on and off the court and field. Being able to make unique lifelong memories with her teammates in every sport has been the aspect she loves most about high school sports. Growing up and playing with the same group of girls has created strong friendships that allow her to have great team chemistry and excel in all of her sports. Kendal competes in basketball, volleyball, softball, track, and dance team. She is involved in FFA, student council, National Honor Society, and vocal jazz through choir. Outside of school, she is a Youth in Philanthropy and Silver Lakers 4-H Club member. Kendal expressed how it has been a privilege to be a member of the Youth in Philanthropy for all four years of her high school career. Throughout her time serving as a member of this organization, she has helped raise $215,00+ to grant out to local non-profit organizations. Another major community service project she has been actively participating in is Adopt-a-Family. She has helped "adopt" 7 families and 4 individuals through a youth group, 4-H, Youth in Philanthropy, and National Honor Society. She has also been cleaning a mile stretch of ditches on the highway that leads out of her town from 7th grade through senior year as a member of FFA, 4H, and class community service projects. Lastly, she has been involved in helping with fundraisers for the pool and bike trail in her town, as well as many activities that have helped nurture the younger generation. Agriculture is more than just farming to Kendal. The world of agriculture has opened many doors for her and has left her with lifelong advice and experiences. She enjoys being included in this aspect of the agricultural world through showing and raising animals at her county fair and participating in contests and fundraisers relating to the farm world. Overall, being introduced to the agriculture industry through her involvement in FFA has taught her many life lessons, introduced her to many new people and places, and sparked many new interests that she wouldn't have had without agriculture. Kendal plans on attending Morningside University in the fall of 2025 to play basketball and major in biology (pre-dentistry). She then wants to go on to earn a doctorate in dentistry to become an orthodontist.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

This is Part 10 in the series that covers the story of Billy Sol Estes, Mac Wallace, Bobby Baker and other members of Johnson's Texas inner circle. Part 10 accelerates the story of Billy Sol Estes as his world begins to fall apart. His high profile play on cotton allotments now exposed and the fraud of his fictitious storage containers about to bust wide open, RFK seizes on the opportunity to pressure Estes into spilling the beans, about Lyndon Johnson. But Estes is is sworn to secrecy by Johnson himself, and ultimately threatened with his life, so he demures as others around him in the schemes are murdered.  Ultimately, RFK pulls the noose tight and Estes is indicted. Estes'  trial is bungled by Lyndon's lawyer, but it obtains its ultimate objective for Johnson which is to  keeping Billie Sol silent. As Lyndon betrays him, Estes  makes the break from the Vice President, but then an attempt on his life is made. A burning cross and a shot narrowly missing.  As a result, he goes silent once again as he enters federal prison.  The years in prison and the betrayal by Johnson even after his incarceration would sew the seeds of revenge. All of these  men who were quite intertwined around Johnson at the time of the assassination. They  were involved in circumstances that were closing in on Johnson too and that provided him great motive in the killing of the President.  The story is extraordinary.  Rumors of Johnson's involvement began to swirl almost immediately after the President's assassination and there is a defined school of thought within the JFK assassination research community that staunchly believes in Johnson's involvement. His involvement  in both the assassination and its cover up. Join us in one of the most fascinating story tells of the Kennedy assassination and stick around as we will be returning to the Mexico City series right after we complete this min-series that was spawned by the recent release of the Billy Sol Estes and Cliff Carter tape that the two recorded in 1971. Folks, you just can't write this stuff. Even as early as 1964, rumors and serious concerns over  the lone gunman theory and the evidence that might contravene it,  were becoming a major concern for the government and the commission. Conspiracy theories were contrary to the government's stated narrative from the very beginning. This  real-life story is more fascinating than fiction.  No matter whether you are a serious researcher or a casual student, you will enjoy the fact filled narrative and story as  we relive one of the most shocking moments in American History. An event that changed the nation and changed the world forever.

Lacy Schilmiller was nominated as a Beck's Player with Heart for her commitment and passion on and off the range. What she loves most about high school sports is how they bring excitement and challenging possibilities to life for all who participate. Lacy believes all school sports provide a mental break from schoolwork and she can put forth the best of her abilities. Lacy participates a lot in NJROTC (Navy Junior Reserve Officer Training Corps) and she is in the running for future Commander of her school's NJROTC. She volunteers at her school in various ways such as doing the presentation of colors (national anthem) at the football and basketball games, teachers assistant, participating on the Precision Rifle Team, helping with annual fundraisers such as the pancake breakfast, color run, and more. Lacy is deeply involved with her local 4-H, where she is the media producer, and has written and received two 4-H grants for her club. She enjoys helping the fair board to set up parking and animal barns, running the "My Little Farm," guiding younger kids with animals, and being the go-to help for a lot of people. She also shows meat pen chickens, pigs, and goats and helps the mini-4H'ers with their animals. Lacy is also very involved with her local church. She regularly attends the youth choir, serves at mass, helps with the High-School Hangout youth group, and attends camps and conventions. Lacy feels as though she has made an impact on her community by selling Kennebec potato bags and donating the money she made to a different organization each year. Agriculture means a lot to Lacy. It has taught her over the years that everything starts small like a seed, and as it grows or changes, adaptations and resources flourish. If she had to say one word that describes the agriculture grown in her, it is initiative. She has learned that in agriculture she needs to make her own decisions and be resourceful. In the future, Lacy has some possible college choices, but she does know that she would like to go into the Air Force ROTC or the Army ROTC to continue her passion for rifle and then become an officer in the medical field. Her overall goal is to work for the VA hospital so she can give back to those who gave their all and hear their stories of the good times with their friends and family.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.
