In the blistering heat of New Mexico's sun-baked earth, under the protective gaze of Okuu Pin–the Turtle Mountain that majestically stands guard over Albuquerque–a strange and persistent legend has taken hold. It's a story of hidden Jews, of ancient rites disguised as Catholic rituals, and of shadowy ancestors who supposedly hid their true faith during the Inquisition. This is the tale of New Mexico's crypto-Jews—a myth so tangled in folklore, mistaken identities, and selective memory that it could only have been born in the fevered heart of the American Southwest.The modern crypto-Jew craze began, as many myths do, with an eager academic and an over-reliance on confirmation bias. In the 1980s, historian Stanley Hordes launched a search for what he believed to be the long-lost Jewish roots of New Mexico's Spanish-speaking residents—descendants, he claimed, of an elusive and mysterious population that had secretly kept the flames of Judaism alive for centuries, hidden beneath the Catholic veneer imposed by the Spanish Empire.  But when we scratch the surface and look closer at what Hordes—and his followers—were really chasing, the myth becomes apparent. A myth so potent it gave rise to an entire identity-bending industry steeped in false history.PLUS: Chapter Two of the JUAN DIEGO CODE!listener comments? Feedback? Shoot us a text!

Menopause is often portrayed as a period of decline, but what if it could be reframed as an awakening? Join co-authors Dr. Patricia Singh, psychotherapist and psychedelic integration specialist, and Kelly McGinty, nurse practitioner specializing in hormonal and integrative wellness, for a groundbreaking exploration of menopause as a transformative threshold. This session will delve into how psychedelics, especially psilocybin, offer a radical new perspective, easing cognitive rigidity, reducing internal narratives of decline, and fostering emotional and spiritual growth. Attendees will gain fresh insights on navigating midlife with strength, clarity, and empowerment. About Mycelopause: Uncovering the Magic of Menopause with Psilocybin Co-authored by Dr. Trish Singh, PhD, LPCC and Kelly McGinty, CNP, MSN, Mycelopause is not your typical menopause guide. It's a rebellious, witty, and deeply insightful journey into the intersection of psychedelics, perimenopause, and personal transformation. Combining science, storytelling, and satirical humor, we explore how psilocybin and other holistic tools can help reframe menopause from a crisis to a rite of passage. Kelly McGinty is a nurse practitioner accredited by the American Academy of Nurse Practitioners, with a Master's in Nursing from Gonzaga University. After over a decade as an emergency department NP, Kelly sought holistic approaches to address pandemic-related burnout and mental health crises. Her transformative experiences with psychedelics led her to study psychedelic-assisted psychotherapy at the California Institute of Integral Studies. Kelly integrates Reiki, herbology, and Druidic traditions to help clients—particularly first responders, end-of-life patients, and those with treatment-resistant conditions—achieve holistic wellness in mind, body, and spirit. Dr. Patricia Singh, Ph.D., LPCC, is an independently licensed mental health counselor in New Mexico and California with over 25 years of experience in behavioral health. She holds a doctorate in Mind-Body Medicine with a specialization in Integrative Mental Health and is certified in Psychedelic-Assisted Therapy through the California Institute of Integral Studies. Dr. Singh integrates Ayurvedic principles, trauma-informed care, and psychedelic preparation and integration into her clinical work, where she focuses on post-traumatic stress, addiction, and family trauma. She is the founder of A New Awakening Counseling, a progressive rehabilitation facility serving individuals reentering society after incarceration. Her current research centers on holistic weight loss strategies for menopausal women. Dr. Singh splits her time between Albuquerque, New Mexico, and Oxnard, California.

A 911 ping leads to an Albuquerque stash house with kidnapped migrants and a ransom ledger—proof that policy signals have real-world consequences. We unpack how sanctuary rules that block ICE coordination can embolden predators, why public safety must come before political branding, and what accountability should look like at City Hall. That urgency threads into a broader reality check: Britain's step back from rapid net zero plans exposes hard limits on intermittent power, rising grid costs, and the arithmetic of energy density. Meanwhile, U.S. demand is skyrocketing—think AI data centers, electrification, and industry—while New Mexico families operate on thin margins. Price hikes don't hit spreadsheets; they hit kitchens.So we draw a line: pair responsible oil and gas with a national sprint toward fusion. Unlike fission, fusion promises abundant, cleaner baseload without massive waste, and breakthroughs are accelerating. We talk practical policy—why middle-class tax relief matters now, why energy scarcity guarantees suffering, and how investment in fusion can deliver both climate progress and affordability. It's not ideology; it's physics, finance, and compassion.We also tackle a brewing trade storm: Ontario's ad splicing Ronald Reagan's anti-tariff remarks to swipe at Trump spurred a tariff escalation and a quick pullback. Beyond the noise, the question is context—1987 trade dynamics aren't today's, and resilience matters when supply chains shape national security. Add a government shutdown threatening pay for troops and federal workers, and the theme is clear: don't outsource reality. And because real life isn't all policy, we close with a jolt from our game cams—coyotes, a big bobcat, and a massive mountain lion caught strolling at midday.Join us for straight talk on safety, energy, and sovereignty—plus the wildest wildlife clip we've seen yet.

Like any major arena rock band, Pearl Jam is most known for putting on massive shows in the world's biggest cities. While their shows in New York, Philadelphia and Chicago are always ones to keep an eye out for, America's smaller towns have also gotten the band at their very best. On the 2000 tour, Pearl Jam ran through dates at places they have yet to return to in 25 years such as Albuquerque, Boise, Greensboro and the show we cover in this episode that emanated from Lubbock, Texas. Lubbock is just the 10th largest city in Texas, but still very much a small town in comparison to Dallas or Houston. While Texas Tech grads may argue that the Red Raiders are the most notable thing from Lubbock, most music fans know that it's the hometown of rock 'n' roll pioneer, Buddy Holly. Anyone that knows their rock history knows about the plane crash that took the lives of Holly, Ritchie Valens and JP Richardson aka The Big Bopper at such a young age, but what some may not know is the full background of the story. We'll share some of the eerie details of the crash and it's aftermath as we take in a moment of tribute with the band covering Holly's popular song Everyday. We'll run through the entire set and talk a little about the recent death of KISS lead guitarist Ace Frehley and his impact on Pearl Jam.

Comentário de Ralph de Carvalho: A Produtividade do Atacante Ciel: O primeiro assunto trata da contratação e longevidade do jogador Ciel, atualmente com 43 anos de idade. Apesar da idade que geralmente marca o fim da vida útil no futebol (cerca de 35 a 38 anos) Ciel é artilheiro e entrega em campo o que se espera, sendo disputado por várias equipes. Ele está no CSA de Alagoas, onde a direção busca um contrato mais longo (até dezembro de 2026), e recentemente ele foi emprestado ao Tirol do Ceará para disputar a Taça Fares Lopes, demonstrando sua eficiência e produtividade. O Processo Eleitoral no Náutico: O segundo tema foca no processo eleitoral do Clube Náutico Capibaribe, com atenção ao prazo de inscrição das chapas. A chapa de situação, que deve ser liderada por Bruno Becker para presidente e Ricardo Malta para vice, está consolidada. Houve uma possibilidade de chapa de oposição com Plínio Albuquerque e Roberto Selva, mas essa ideia não vingou, indicando que o clube pode ter uma chapa única. O atual presidente, Bruno Becker, é esperado para oficializar sua candidatura no momento da inscrição. Débitos e SAF no Santa Cruz: O terceiro assunto é a situação do Santa Cruz, que passou a ser cobrado publicamente, com ameaças de inclusão dos débitos na Câmara Nacional de Resolução de Disputas (CNRD). A entrada do débito no CNRD pode causar punições severas, como a impossibilidade de inscrever novos atletas. O Vila Nova de Goiás, através do presidente Hugo Jorge Bravo, cobra R$ 700.000 referentes à venda do meia João Pedro. Além disso, o presidente do Tubarão de Santa Catarina cobra valores devidos pelo empréstimo do atacante Geovani. Questiona-se se os débitos são responsabilidade do Santa Cruz ou da futura SAF, a Cobra Coral Participações, sendo estranho que uma SAF comece a ser instalada já gerando ou assumindo um passivo. Apesar das cobranças, o Santa Cruz continua contratando jogadores, como Andrei, Ianson e Pedro Costa.

A single claim on a debate stage can snowball fast. We open with a charged Albuquerque mayoral moment, a televised fact-check, and a deeper question about access: when homelessness consumes a city's attention and budget, who gets to see what's really happening inside the shelters we fund? From there we trace how a New Mexico judge's reading of the state constitution could collide with the U.S. Supreme Court's Grants Pass ruling, reshaping encampment enforcement, due process, and the daily life of residents and businesses—especially where drug use and pedestrian risk already run high.Zooming out, we follow the incentives behind a grinding federal shutdown. Why would one party press for a clean continuing resolution and the other resist it despite the pressure from unpaid workers? We unpack the polling, the blame game, and why modern presidents lean on executive orders when Congress stalls—creating a cycle where rules swing every few years and cities struggle to plan. We also challenge a viral political ad that blames tariffs for $25 fair food, contrasting it with retailer data showing holiday basket prices returning toward 2019 levels. The real drivers behind sticky grocery inflation aren't as simple as a slogan.Along the way, we scrutinize a proposed ICE tracker that could endanger agents amid rising attacks, debate how to balance enforcement with treatment and shelter capacity, and call for basic transparency: public bed counts, performance dashboards, and access with privacy safeguards. It's a candid tour through local politics, constitutional law, shutdown strategy, and the economics shaping your daily life.If this resonated, tap follow, share the episode with a friend who cares about practical solutions, and leave a quick review—your feedback helps more curious listeners find the show.Website: https://www.nodoubtaboutitpodcast.com/Twitter: @nodoubtpodcastFacebook: https://www.facebook.com/NoDoubtAboutItPod/Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/markronchettinm/?igshid=NTc4MTIwNjQ2YQ%3D%3D

When Coach Prime, Deion Sanders, left a recent Colorado game in pain from another blood clot, headlines focused on his toes and his comeback. But few understood what his story actually exposes: the difference between arterial and venous clots — and why that distinction can mean the difference between life, limb, and legacy. On this week's Heart of Innovation, I sat down with Dr. Esteban Henao of Albuquerque, NM, and Dr. John Phillips, interventional cardiologist and co-host, to unpack the science, the stories, and the stakes behind blood clots — timed to World Thrombosis Day. We discuss: – Why Deion's “perfect storm” of diabetes, aneurysmal disease, and hereditary hypercoagulability makes his case so complex – How arterial clots (often linked to PAD and plaque buildup) differ from venous clots that can cause deadly pulmonary embolisms – What warning signs too many patients and clinicians still miss – Why who you are can determine how quickly you're treated — and how equity in vascular care could save thousands of limbs As Dr. Henao said on the show: “If Deion wasn't Deion, there's a good chance he would have lost his leg.” And that's exactly why these conversations matter. Listen to the full show!

Somewhere between the high deserts of New Mexico and the psychic wastelands of Unearthed Arcana, the RPGBOT crew discovered two great truths: Albuquerque has better tacos than Los Angeles, and psionics might finally make sense in Dungeons & Dragons. We know some of you thought the Psion episode was lost forever (vanished into the Astral Plane or eaten by a mind flayer), but good news! The missing RPGBOT.Podcast episode on the Psion Unearthed Arcana has been recovered and is now live on your favorite podcatcher. Catch up and join the conversation before your DM rewrites the subclass again. Show Notes In this episode, the RPGBOT.Podcast team takes a psychic deep dive into the latest Unearthed Arcana update to the Psion class for Dungeons & Dragons. Between discussions of New Mexico's high desert climate, Albuquerque's local cuisine, and Taos skiing, the crew explores how psionics, multiclassing, and new subclass mechanics are reshaping D&D's design space. Listeners will hear insights on how Wizards of the Coast reworked the Scion (now Psion) class, making psionic energy and subclass features more flexible and accessible. From the Metamorph's Fleshweaver feature to the Psychonetic's telekinesis and the Telepath's support abilities, the team analyzes gameplay impact, balance, and flavor. The discussion also touches on the rebalancing of level 20 features, improvements to psionic spellcasting, and how multiclassing interacts with hit dice mechanics. As always, the hosts bring humor, personal stories, and some surprising local insight from their rediscovery of Albuquerque's food culture—because apparently, “better tacos” is a universal truth worth multiclassing for. Key Takeaways Unearthed Arcana brings a refined Psion to D&D, improving class balance, subclass diversity, and psionic flavor. Psionic energy mechanics now scale smoothly across levels and subclass paths. The Metamorph subclass gains major survivability boosts with its Fleshweaver feature. The Psychonetic subclass emphasizes mobility, telekinesis, and damage versatility. The Telepath subclass leans into party support, battlefield control, and communication. Level 20 features expand psionic dice and late-game impact without overwhelming balance. Multiclassing with Psion no longer punishes hit dice mechanics, making hybrid builds more viable. New Mexico's food culture, from Albuquerque green chile to Taos tacos, inspires reflection on community and quality—much like balanced game design. Listener engagement continues to be key: reviews and ratings help keep RPGBOT's brainwaves strong. Wizards of the Coast's open development process hints at more innovative subclasses and psionic expansions ahead.

Albuquerque stands at a crossroads—and the numbers don't mince words. With crime and homelessness topping voter concerns and an incumbent polling under 30%, a runoff looks all but certain. We sit down with Darren White to parse the real levers of change: how to rebuild proactive policing, restore confidence in APD, and confront encampments with a plan that blends services and clear enforcement. No buzzwords, no techno-fixes-as-substitutes—just the tradeoffs, timelines, and leadership choices that move outcomes.We get specific about what “day one” would look like on encampments, why recruitment can't be outsourced to billboards or generic incentives, and how leadership culture—from the chief on down—sets the tone for response times, clearance rates, and community trust. The conversation also wades into the National Guard's role as a force multiplier (and what deployment should and shouldn't be), plus a candid reaction to the mayor's latest ad and the claim that media coverage is the problem. On policy fault lines, we break down the sanctuary amendment that would have shared data with ICE on violent charges and trafficking, and why that vote became a litmus test for public safety priorities.Campaign mechanics matter too. With a six-person field, limited public financing, and a low-information electorate weeks out, targeting is king: older voters, read mail, watch debates, and reward clarity. We talk debate criteria, who made the stage, and how one or two votes—on sanctuary policy or guaranteed basic income—can redraw the map in a tight race. If you're weighing whether Albuquerque stays the course or resets on crime and homelessness, this conversation gives you the receipts, the stakes, and the likely paths to November.If this helped you think sharper about Albuquerque's future, tap follow, share with a friend who votes in the city, and leave a review telling us which policy would most improve your neighborhood. Your take might shape our next episode.Website: https://www.nodoubtaboutitpodcast.com/Twitter: @nodoubtpodcastFacebook: https://www.facebook.com/NoDoubtAboutItPod/Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/markronchettinm/?igshid=NTc4MTIwNjQ2YQ%3D%3D

The stories and written documentation on boarding schools, Indian Agents, and even the fictional character, Paul Bunyan, all have an influence on how we view history. The Western History Association Conference in Albuquerque, N.M., this week assembles a number of discussions led by Native American historians on those and other topics, gauging how well Native perspectives are taken into account. We'll hear from some of those historians about the changing influence of Native historical scholarship. GUESTS Vivien Tejada (Cherokee), assistant professor of history at University of California, Los Angeles Dr. Farina King (Diné), professor of Native American studies and Horizon Chair of NA ecology and culture at the University of Oklahoma Michael Holloman (Confederated Tribes of the Colville Reservation), professor in the Department of Art at Washington State University

Kerry McDonald sits down with Kerry Baldwin, co-founder of Vita Nova Academy, a micro-high school in Albuquerque, New Mexico built on Socratic practice and passion-driven learning. Baldwin shares how Vita Nova pairs seminar-style inquiry with a skills-based framework and a partnership with the Mastery Transcript Consortium, helping teens show real evidence of mastery—communication, research, critical thinking—tied to their interests. The conversation digs into aligning parent expectations with what colleges and employers actually value, why Vita Nova includes an alumni board seat for continuous feedback, and how the school plans to grow while retaining its small, community feel. Baldwin also previews a Creative Commons Socratic curriculum other founders can adopt, plus ideas for shared microschool proms and sports. If you're curious about innovating at the high-school level, this episode is your playbook. ***   Sign up for Kerry's free, weekly email newsletter on education trends at edentrepreneur.org.

You can take the girl off of the ranch, but you can't take the cow trails out of her metaphors. When Lindsay shared that the first time her son stepped onto a sidewalk he called it a “cow trail for people,” we knew we were in for a good one. This episode isn't about slowing down or speeding up, but finding your footing when everything familiar shifts. From feed store counters to city sirens, we're unpacking what happens when convenience meets capacity, and why your best practices still apply … even when your groceries can be delivered to your doorstep.This week we welcome Lindsay Garber, formerly a top-tier ranch wedding photographer, and now the fourth-generation force inside her family's western wear & feed store in Albuquerque. She's traded gravel roads for Trader Joe's, but what grounds her is the same: purpose, people, and a love for the culture that raised her.Together we explore why leaving town won't fix a life that's running on fumes, and why the basics still matter whether groceries are a seven-hour round trip or seven minute away. We talk about context over tactics, conversation as a catalyst, and how retail has its own seasonality: chickens, rodeo, fairs, film crews, and yes, the surprise delight of French cowboys. Through it all runs a throughline we live by at Cowgirls Over Coffee: when the landscape shifts, your practice (water, sleep, vegetables, reflection, and real connection!) keeps you steady.Listen In For …Why swapping ranch life for city life changes the scenery but not the work of caring for your capacity.How conversation functions like binoculars, giving you context so you can actually see what's coming.A practical reminder that the “next level” still runs on the same basics: sleep, hydration, nourishment, and honest check-ins.The difference between exhaustion on the ranch and monotony in town, and how to break both with intentional moments of awe.What retail teaches about seasons (spring chicks to fall fairs to pilot season) and how to plan without losing presence.The store as tether: how tending a legacy space can anchor identity and community in the middle of a metro.Why mastering yourself outperforms mastering the hustle, especially when opportunities arrive faster because you planned well.A gentle reframe for over-capable women: you don't need a 12-step overhaul; you need faithful follow-through on what already works.TL;DR (Minute by Minute)04:30 Lindsay's move: from “most rural” New Mexico to the heart of Albuquerque; what changed and what didn't.09:40 Context over geography: leaving town won't solve capacity problems without deliberate practices.15:20 Conversation as a tool: the “binoculars” for seeing the ship; tactics make sense once you have context.21:35 City monotony vs. ranch exhaustion: different drains with the same antidote: intentional rest and wonder.27:10 Retail seasons 101: chickens, rodeo, fairs, film crews … and the unexpectedly punchy French cowboys.32:45 Legacy as anchor: keeping a 75-year family business human in a humming city.38:50 The faithful basics: water, sleep, vegetables, and how simple habits power real next-level growth.43:30 Wrap-up + invitation to carry the conversation forward.Where to Go From HereJoin the conversation: What did this conversation remind you to tend? Your routine, your rest, your roots? Screenshot and tag @cowgirlsovercoffee and keep the conversation going.

On this week's conversation Paul and Wally discuss the Foundation's recent media relating to the Albuquerque Public Schools $350 million bond. You can see the ABQ Journal article here and the KOAT 7 story here.  An update on the billboard campaign and state's response. Among the topics EDD has posted on is NM's growth in manufacturing. Another data point being touted by MLG's administration is on the drop in child poverty. There is indeed good news albeit it is also a tacit admission that MLG's prior statements have been misleading.  A pumpkin patch located near Albuquerque was attacked recently. Here's more on the McCall's attack by a local teacher union. MLG is supporting a planned nuclear fusion facility and offering big subsidies for it. That contrasts sharply with her reaction to a nuclear waste storage facility's decision to abandon New Mexico.   RGF releases Freedom Index scores for the recent special session.

A union boss tried to turn a beloved New Mexico tradition into a political weapon—and we're not having it. We unpack the “prison patch” smear aimed at McCall's Pumpkin Patch, separate rumor from reality, and talk about what's really at stake when activists target family businesses to score points. It's a case study in how online outrage travels, how local news stepped in to correct it, and why communities should back builders over destroyers.From there, we head into the Albuquerque mayoral race, where crime and homelessness dominate the polls. We analyze Darren White's hard-hitting ad, Tim Keller's incumbent playbook, and why a “good ideas, better execution” message from Alex Ubayas falls flat when voters are begging for real change. If you want to win, you have to talk about what people feel on their block—safety, public order, and visible disorder—and offer concrete steps, not abstractions.Then a wild media moment: Katie Porter's interview meltdown and the aftermath. We walk through how a few minutes of friction with a local reporter triggered a prediction market swing, revived old staff clips, and raised the bigger question—can you govern if you can't handle follow-ups? We also scan tight races in New Jersey and Virginia, where endorsements, standards, and cost-of-living politics are reshaping odds. Finally, we tackle the government shutdown, the Senate math behind it, and a heated JD Vance–George Stephanopoulos exchange that spotlights the gap between media priorities and what families are actually dealing with.Stick around for Sunday Drone Day: soaring fall colors over Angel Fire, a reminder of the place we're all trying to protect.

Don and Tom kick off this episode with a satirical bang—mocking the apocalyptic tone of a MarketWatch article about the “Fourth Turning,” a cyclical doom prophecy claiming America faces a cataclysmic reset every 80–100 years.
