More than two years after the freight rail disaster just across the Pennsylvania border in East Palestine, Ohio, lawmakers are still trying to increase safety regulations on railroads. Western Pa. Congressman Chris Deluzio is working to gather support for his Railway Safety Act of 2025. Freight rail carriers Norfolk Southern and Union Pacific are looking to merge, which would create the first transcontinental railroad in the U.S. The deal still needs to be approved by regulators, but many in Altoona are closely watching. Two people died in a Sunday morning house fire in York County. A 15-year old boy drowned in a Lancaster County pond, while at least one person was rescued from the Susquehanna River last weekend. Capital Region Water is launching a $1.4 billion upgrade to its aging water infrastructure in the Harrisburg area. The project focuses on environmental issues stemming from the company's combined sewer system which handles both rainwater and sewage. A former Middletown, Dauphin County man is being charged in connection with a 12-year old case of animal cruelty. Reading and Lancaster are ranked in the top three fastest-selling housing markets in the nation. Federal funding for public media has been rescinded.

What a crazy week. Malcolm-Jamal Warner. Ozzy. Hogan. Just a wild ride. Obviously, we talked about the death of Hulk Hogan this morning, including a recap of his wrestling career, his life outside the ring, his other appearances on TV & in movies, and some personal memories of the Hulkster. Also in the news, a La Crosse man was sentenced to 64 months in Federal prison on a meth charge, a local teenager known for his crochet skills was in court on a sexual assault case, a cyclist in Vernon County is dead, Governor Tony Evers announced he wouldn't be seeking re-election, and "The Yard" in Altoona opens this weekend. In sports, the Brew Crew are back home tonight to take on the Marlins, Bill Self ended up in the hospital, and President Trump signs an executive order to prevent college athletes from becoming professionals. Elsewhere in sports, ESPN is nearing a deal to acquire NFL media…including Red Zone! And the planned expansion of March Madness is unlikely to happen in the upcoming season. We let you know what's on TV/Streaming this weekend and what's new in theaters. Plus, Doc joined us just after 8am to talk racing thanks to County Materials in Holmen. A video of a woman from Wausau is going viral after her mailman delivered her beloved dog's ashes. And check out this woman who saved a teenager's life with the CPR skills she learned decades ago! A recent survey found that almost a quarter of us are using A.I. to fact-check our doctors. What could possibly go wrong? And in today's edition of "Bad News with Happy Music", we had stories about a naked man who took a boat for a joyride & tried to use a disguise to escape the police, a #FloridaMan who robbed an arcade and had his mom as his getaway driver, another naked dude in Oklahoma who broke into a home & jumped into their pond to hide from the cops, a massive recall in Japan on toy guns that can fire actual bullets, a #FloridaMan who works as a Chuck E. Cheese mascot was arrested for credit card theft while wearing his costume, a cat burglar named "Leonardo Da Pinchy" who keeps stealing people's underwear, and robots in China that can replace their own batteries when they start to go dead.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Join us again this week for another sermon on the Gospel of John continuing with chapter 6 verses 41 through 50.

Welcome to The Daily, where we study the Bible verse by verse, chapter by chapter, every day. Today's shout-out goes to Troy Albertson from Altoona, IA. Your partnership with us through Project 23 is completing God's work and word in the lives of others. This study is for you. Our text today is Mark 8:22-26: And they came to Bethsaida. And some people brought to him a blind man and begged him to touch him. And he took the blind man by the hand and led him out of the village, and when he had spit on his eyes and laid his hands on him, he asked him, “Do you see anything?” And he looked up and said, “I see people, but they look like trees, walking.” Then Jesus laid his hands on his eyes again; and he opened his eyes, his sight was restored, and he saw everything clearly. And he sent him to his home, saying, “Do not even enter the village.”— Mark 8:22-26 Jesus arrives in Bethsaida, and a blind man is brought to him. But rather than heal immediately, Jesus does something unexpected. He leads the man away from the village. Then comes the moment: spit, touch, and a question—“Do you see anything?” The man answers honestly, “I see people, but they look like trees, walking.” He's been touched… but not fully healed. His vision is still blurry. So Jesus touches him again. And this time, everything becomes clear. If you've ever felt like Jesus started something in your life but hasn't finished it—this moment is for you. This healing wasn't evidence of Jesus' lack of power. It was intentional. It was a visual parable for the disciples—and us today. You see, sometimes, God's work in us unfolds in stages. It's not always instant. Sometimes, our spiritual sight improves gradually. Sometimes, the spiritual healing we need takes time. But Jesus never leaves it unfinished. When the answers are partial in your life, remember that he's not done. When your spiritual sight is blurry, remember he's still working. When his touch feels incomplete, remember he's coming back with more. You may be in between touches today—don't panic. He hasn't forgotten you. His grace is not half-measured. His power is not limited. His plan is not on pause. Wait. Trust. Let Jesus finish what he started in you. He won't fail. #GodIsStillWorking, #FaithInProcess, #Mark8 ASK THIS: Have you ever felt like God started something but didn't finish it? Why do you think Jesus healed this man in stages? What area of your life feels “blurry” right now? How can you stay faithful while waiting for clarity? DO THIS: Pray today for endurance in the in-between—trusting God to finish the work Jesus began in you. PRAY THIS: Jesus, even when I can't see clearly, I trust that You're still working. Complete the work You've started in me—Your timing, not mine. Amen. PLAY THIS: "Firm Foundation (He Won't)."

The Pirates dropped another series, Tommy Pham revealed vision issues are affecting his game, and at this point… it's crystal clear Ben Cherington's plan has completely failed. We break down the weekend series vs. the Rangers, dive into Pham's eye problems and how they've impacted the lineup, and make the case that it's officially time to move on from the Pirates' GM. Plus: minor league moves, Edward Florentino's promotion, and why Esmerlyn Valdez needs to be in Altoona. We wrap with a Brewers preview and what's at stake as the division slips further away.

The Stews started their musical journey as a band a mere 5 years ago. But in those 5 short years they've released an EP and two albums, and gathered a small army of fans. They have performed hundreds of shows over the last 3 years and are gearing up for more on their "Who's Hungry" Fall Tour. Preston Hall and Wyatt Griffith were nice enough to stop by the show and talk all about The Stews. Doc, Wyatt and Preston, talk about starting out in music, meeting at Auburn University, renting a storage place to play drums, the first band jam session in Wyatt's basement, recording the first EP, moving to Charleston, recording new music and much more. Meanwhile on the rest of the show Mike and Doc decide that history exists despite what Tyler Herro says, and Mike is going to eat Altoona pizza.

Welcome to this episode of 20/20 Money. My guest on today's show is Dr. Mike Satryan, OD, a partner with Mountain View Eye in Altoona, PA.   Mike is a long-time practice owner who brings over 25 years of experience running an in-house optical lab within their practice. We dive into the substantial cost savings his practice has realized by finishing lenses on-site and how that margin improvement supports a compensation model tied to gross revenue growth. We explore how having an in-house lab not only boosts profitability but also enhances second-pair and annual contact lens supply conversions, thanks in part to a more efficient optical experience. He also shares his buying criteria when evaluating edgers, what ultimately influenced his choice of supplier, and whether the edger is patient-facing or kept behind the scenes. Whether you're a solo OD or managing a multi-doctor practice, this conversation offers valuable insight into the operational and financial upside of bringing lens finishing in-house.   As a reminder, you can get all the information discussed in today's conversation by visiting our website at integratedpwm.com and clicking on the Learning Center. While there, be sure to subscribe to our monthly “planning life on purpose” newsletter that's filled with tips and ideas to help you plan your best life, on purpose. You can also set up a Triage conversation to learn a little bit more about how we serve in the capacity of a personal and professional CFO: helping OD practice owners around the country reduce their tax bill, proactively manage cash flow, and make prudent investment decisions both in and out of their practice to ultimately help them live their best life on purpose. If you're interested in learning more about the 20/20 Money Financial Success Masterclass, a course & platform that we created to help ODs become “brilliant at the financial basics,” or are interested in learning more about how OD Masterminds creates space for real conversations, real accountability, and real growth, please check out the link in the show notes of this episode to learn more.   And with that introduction, I hope you enjoy my conversation with Dr. Mike Satryan, OD.   Resources: 20/20 Money Ultimate Financial Success Masterclass OD Mastermind Interest Form Edging In-House vs Outsourcing: The Economics, Trade-Offs, and Data An Optometric Practice Needs to Measure with Drs.

Penn State’s administration officially released a report, outlining which of its campuses it’s recommending for closure and why. That list includes two campuses in central Pennsylvania--Mont Alto and York. Factors include declining enrollment and steep maintenance costs. Democrats in Pennsylvania’s House of Representatives are sending a suite of election reforms to the Republican-controlled Senate for consideration. The House was also scheduled to vote on voter ID, but Republican support fell apart at the last minute. A state Senate committee quickly moved to shut down a House-passed bill legalizing adult-use recreational marijuana in Pennsylvania. In Washington, D.C., the founder of an Altoona substance use disorder support group is advocating before Congress this week--part of a group of parents impacted by drug addiction who are partnering with the national advocacy group Drug Policy Alliance. Microtransit could be coming to Lancaster County. South Central Transit Authority, the agency overseeing Red Rose Transit Authority, is considering adding the service which is part-Uber, part-public transit, and would potentially cover areas of Lancaster County where buses don't reach.

Death Penalty Pursued in Killing of UnitedHealthcare CEO The gunman who shot down one of the most powerful healthcare executives in America may now face the death penalty. Luigi Mangione, the 26-year-old accused of murdering UnitedHealthcare CEO Brian Thompson outside a Manhattan hotel last December, is now the target of a federal death penalty case. U.S. Attorney General Pam Bondi has formally authorized federal prosecutors to pursue the death sentence—escalating the already high-stakes case into one of the most serious federal prosecutions in recent history. Mangione is currently facing both state and federal charges. The state case, being prosecuted in New York, includes murder and terrorism charges, but those come with a maximum sentence of life in prison—New York doesn't have the death penalty. That's where the federal case steps in. Federal prosecutors have charged Mangione with murder through the use of a firearm, which is a capital-eligible offense. According to Bondi, this wasn't just a murder — it was a public execution. “Luigi Mangione's murder of Brian Thompson — an innocent man and father of two young children — was a premeditated, cold-blooded assassination that shocked America,” she said in a statement. She cited the public nature of the killing, the alleged ideological motive, and the potential danger to others nearby as key reasons for pursuing the death penalty. The attack was chilling in its precision. Just before dawn on December 4th, Thompson left his Midtown hotel and began walking toward the Hilton across the street, where UnitedHealthcare was hosting its annual investor conference. He didn't make it far. Authorities say Mangione, wearing a mask and waiting in ambush, approached and opened fire — in the middle of Manhattan, with commuters and conference attendees all around. When investigators later recovered ammunition allegedly used in the shooting, they discovered something disturbing: each bullet was etched with the words “deny,” “defend,” and “depose.” Those phrases aren't random — they've long been used by critics of the insurance industry to describe how claims are delayed, disputed, and dismantled. Prosecutors say the shooting was more than just personal — it was political. Thompson wasn't just any executive. He had spent over two decades at Minnetonka-based UnitedHealthcare, serving as CEO for more than three years. The company covers over 49 million Americans and brought in more than $281 billion in revenue last year. It's the largest provider of Medicare Advantage plans and manages healthcare for both public and private sectors. Thompson was a major figure in a system both relied on and resented by millions. The murder rocked the business world, but the chaos didn't stop there. Back in Maple Grove, Minnesota — where Thompson lived with his wife and two sons — police responded to bomb threats at homes connected to the family within hours of the killing. Authorities believe the threats were hoaxes, but they sent a clear message: this wasn't over. Mangione fled New York after the shooting, kicking off a multi-state manhunt. It ended five days later in Altoona, Pennsylvania, where he was arrested at a McDonald's. Investigators say he was carrying a backpack with a gun matching the murder weapon and a notebook filled with writings critical of the health insurance industry. He was extradited to New York and has remained in custody at the Metropolitan Detention Center in Brooklyn ever since. Since his arrest, Mangione has pleaded not guilty to all state charges. He hasn't yet been arraigned on the federal indictment, but he's agreed to a preliminary hearing under the Speedy Trial Act, which is set for April 18. While the legal case plays out, the killing has already sparked political and cultural ripples. In California, a group has launched what's called the "Luigi Mangione Initiative," a campaign aimed at banning so-called “delay, deny, defend” tactics by insurers. The group condemns violence but says the case has brought overdue attention to insurance industry abuses. As for Mangione, he now stands at the center of a rare and highly scrutinized federal death penalty case, one that's still unfolding in real time. #LuigiMangione #BrianThompson #FederalDeathPenalty #HealthcareIndustry Want to listen to ALL of our podcasts AD-FREE?

Death Penalty Pursued in Killing of UnitedHealthcare CEO The gunman who shot down one of the most powerful healthcare executives in America may now face the death penalty. Luigi Mangione, the 26-year-old accused of murdering UnitedHealthcare CEO Brian Thompson outside a Manhattan hotel last December, is now the target of a federal death penalty case. U.S. Attorney General Pam Bondi has formally authorized federal prosecutors to pursue the death sentence—escalating the already high-stakes case into one of the most serious federal prosecutions in recent history.
