Trade in those thirsty water hogs for some of these water-wise options   Do water shortages have you (and your garden) stressed? This episode is all about the toughest, thirst-averse plants out there — and how to build a landscape that thrives even when the rain is nowhere in sight. On this episode we have two expert guests from two very different climates: one in the Mid-Atlantic and one from the Southwest. Each of them will share the plants that they turn to when the conditions are dry and watering every day is out of the question.   We'll talk through which plants need a little help getting started versus which ones you can practically set and forget, and how to group plants with similar water needs so you're not overwatering your survivors to keep your divas alive. Whether you're xeriscaping a whole yard from scratch, converting a thirsty lawn bit by bit, or just trying to keep your patio containers alive through a brutal heat wave, tune in for practical, plant-nerd-approved advice.  Get the plant list for this episode on the Fine Gardening Website: https://www.finegardening.com/podcast Episode Experts: Ed Lyon is a horticulturist, an author, the former director of the Reiman Gardens at Iowa State University in Ames, and a frequent contributor to Fine Gardening magazine. He is nationally recognized as a top-tier garden educator with decades of experience helping gardeners cultivate beautiful, resilient landscapes. After many years in the Midwest, Ed relocated to Pennsylvania and launched Spellbound Garden Writing & Consultation.  Natalie McAnarney, known online as The Plant Ninja, is a Texas gardener and YouTube creator based about an hour north of Austin. A former U.S. Army officer who now works as a physician assistant, she began transforming her lawn into native and adapted plantings in 2020. Through her YouTube channel, The Plant Ninja - Texas Gardener, she documents her de-lawning projects and plant choices and features others in horticulture taking on similar approaches.   Natalie's efforts have also made her an advocate for drought-tolerant landscaping, after successfully persuading her HOA to approve a large-scale native-plant conversion of her front yard by citing Texas law protecting homeowners' rights to xeriscape.  

Should we continue talking about Caitlin Clark on Two Guys? We now know it was Jimmy Rogers who voted for Iowa State to make the Big 12 title game. Jamie Pollard gives an update on the timeline of his departure as Iowa State's director of athletics. The Athletic's Joe Rexrode wrote that Iowa State is more of a football school than basketball. Hassel makes the case that Cayden Daughtry going off at the Peach Jam is not good for Iowa. And Matt Campbell, who recently called Ames a food desert, made an hour long long media appearance at something called Quaker Steak & Lube in State College. Presented by Fareway!

In a sit-down interview with Chris Williams, Iowa State defensive coordinator Jesse Bobbit outlines the aggressive identity he and Head Coach Jimmy Rogers are bringing to Ames. Reflecting on his transition from interim head coach at Washington State to Iowa State, Bobbit highlights a recruiting strategy built around culture fit and long-term development over quick fixes.

Chase comes on the podcast just days after a very memorable Midnight Madness 5K in Ames. He tells why it was special. He talks about health issues that prompted his return to Iowa. Chase set a new best for the marathon of 2:26:40 at the IMT Des Moines Marathon in October, but he mentions why that race was a bit disappointing. The former Manson Northwest Webster prep gives his next goal and why he believes a change in diet has improved his times greatly. The Northwestern College grad describes his journey into coaching and why his first coaching job was terrible. Chase talks about landing at NAIA Campbellsville University in Kentucky and the challenges that came with the job. He details a challenging Boston Marathon experience in April that gave him more than he expected and how an Uber Eats saved the day during his stay in Boston. Chase tells about the good and bad during his prep wrestling days and why he went with running in college instead of wrestling. He is asked about his many tattoos and he talks about what some of them mean to him. Lance is asked a question for once and Chase briefly stumps him about the topic.

Post Malone Biography Flash a weekly Biography. Post Malone has spent the past few days quietly but decisively reshaping the next chapter of his biography. The biggest development is music: People magazine reports that he just teased a new hip hop track from the studio, captioned on social media with the line “That one mofo that don't know when to leave,” a clear wink that he is not done with rap despite his recent country pivot. Complex adds that this preview is tied to his upcoming double album The Eternal Buzz, a 40‑song project he has discussed on Twitch, saying he hopes to release two albums in 2026 if everything goes his way, signaling a major creative inflection point likely to define this era of his career. Whiskey Riff and other music outlets note that fans are now convinced he will straddle both genres, with The Eternal Buzz widely speculated to be split between rap and country; that split is still unconfirmed and remains fan theory rather than verified fact. AllHipHop and B87FM frame the teaser as the return of “Trap Post,” marking a narrative in hip hop media that he is reclaiming the sound that made him a star, which could have long‑term implications for how his genre‑bending legacy is written. On the business and touring front, SeatGeek and Logjam Presents show that the BIG ASS Stadium Tour with Jelly Roll and Carter Faith is in full swing, with dates across the U.S. and Canada through late July, including stadium stops like MidAmerican Energy Field in Ames and Washington‑Grizzly Stadium in Missoula. These massive venues underscore his ongoing status as a stadium‑level draw and reinforce the touring side of the Post Malone brand. Vivid Seats and Hypebot listings for later 2026 dates, plus Kai Tak Sports Park promotions for a Hong Kong stadium show, point to a sustained global touring strategy that extends well beyond this summer. In a headline with more cultural than musical weight, ESPN reports that FIFA has tapped Post Malone to headline the World Cup closing ceremony, putting him on one of the biggest live stages on earth alongside names like Tom Cruise and streamer IShowSpeed. That booking, confirmed by sports outlets, is poised to be a milestone performance that cements his crossover appeal to a worldwide audience. On social media, the studio teaser clip is the dominant storyline, amplified by music blogs like InMusicBlog and fan chatter interpreting every bar and beat as evidence of a full hip hop comeback. As of now, there are no credible reports of major personal life changes, controversies, or new business ventures beyond touring and the forthcoming album; anything suggesting otherwise appears to be speculative and not backed by reliable outlets. That's your latest installment of Post Malone Biography Flash, tracking the moves that will matter in his long‑term story.

In this episode of Profiling Evil, I sit down with Sarah Edmondson and Anthony “Nippy” Ames from A Little Bit Culty for a raw and honest conversation about cult behavior, coercive control, undue influence and the slow erosion of personal autonomy. They were inside NXIVM, the organization led by Keith Raniere, who was convicted in federal court in 2019 of racketeering, sex trafficking, attempted sex trafficking, forced labor conspiracy and other crimes. In 2020, Raniere was sentenced to 120 years in prison. But this conversation isn't just about NXIVM. It's about how control can be disguised as self-improvement, leadership training, discipline, personal growth, spiritual development or belonging. Sarah and Nippy explain how people don't usually walk into a destructive group knowing what it really is. They walk in because they're looking for purpose, community, answers, confidence, healing or a better version of themselves. That's what makes this discussion so important. We talk about the first hooks, the love bombing, the status systems, the pressure to ignore red flags, the “us versus them” thinking, the sunk cost fallacy, the fear of admitting you were wrong and the painful moment when a person finally realizes the leader is not who they claimed to be.Sarah shares how her intuition warned her early, but how those warnings were slowly trained out of her. Nippy talks about susceptibility, blind spots, loyalty, shame and why assuming “that could never happen to me” may be one of the most dangerous beliefs a person can carry.Their podcast, A Little Bit Culty, focuses on helping people understand, heal from and avoid abusive systems “one little red flag at a time,” and their book, A Little Bit Culty, is described as a guide to understanding how manipulation and control take hold, and how people can begin to break free. From a criminal behavior perspective, this episode looks at how predatory personalities study vulnerability. They don't always begin with threats. Often, they begin with charm, praise, status, access and the promise that you can become something better if you'll just trust the process. That's where control gets dangerous. Not when it looks obvious, but when it looks helpful. This is a conversation for parents, students, true crime followers, faith communities, business leaders, coaches, creators and anyone who wants to better understand coercive control before it reaches the point of crisis. Because cult tactics aren't limited to cults. They can show up in relationships, workplaces, political movements, wellness groups, online communities, business cultures and anywhere a person uses trust to gain power over someone else.#ProfilingEvil #ALittleBitCulty #SarahEdmondson #NippyAmes #NXIVM #KeithRaniere #CoerciveControl #UndueInfluence #CultBehavior #CultSurvivors #TrueCrime #TrueCrimeCommunity #CrimeCon #CriminalBehavior #PredatorBehavior #Manipulation #Gaslighting #LoveBombing #PsychologicalControl #SurvivorVoices #CrimeAnalysis #BehavioralAnalysis #CultRecovery #RedFlags #TrueCrimePodcast #MappingEvil========================================A Little Bit Culty: https://alittlebitculty.com/========================================20% OFF Newspapers.comhttps://www.newspapers.com/go/podcast/?ref=profilingevil?xid=8877&utm_source=ProfilingEvilPodcast&utm_medium=podcst&utm_campaign=ProfilingEvil26========================================Discounts on eBikes: https://aipasbike.com/?ref=PROFILINGEVILReferral Coupon Code: PROFILINGEVIL========================================Email your questions to: ProfilingEvil@gmail.com========================================

In this episode, a conversation with Chris Ames, author of a debut collection of short stories, I Made This Just For You. The characters in this book are perfect avatars of modern life. They work in tech, take designer drugs, assemble IKEA furniture, pursue beauty matching, and rehabilitate their reputations – all while grappling with a perilous sense of unease, held hostage by economic forces beyond their control. I Made This Just for You lives in weird and flirts with normal. The stories explore the tension between authenticity and performance, as characters navigate the anxieties of modern parenthood, the disorienting nature of loss and memory, and the absurd, often dystopian, intersection of the digital and the real. This savage, sideways collection asks: How do we measure the distance between two people? How can we thrive within our own ceaseless routines? And how are we still drawn together, in spite of our messy, broken ways of knowing? Enjoyed what you heard?

This was our very first Substack Live together, yay! We wanted to get together to discuss our recent buddy read, THE WHISPER NETWORK by Chandler Baker and we had a lot of thoughts about this story. If you're not familiar with the book, it's a mystery set in Dallas, about a group of women lawyers whose male boss, Ames, is known for being a sexual harasser, even though nothing is ever done about it. There's a spreadsheet going around about “bad men” who have harassed women and Ames gets added to it. And thus sets off a chain of events where Ames ends up dead. But the mystery is - did he kill himself? Was it a tragic accident? Or was it murder? Dun dun DUN!Tune in to hear us discuss the characters, the writing, and especially the ENDING. Spoilers ahead, so be warned! If you've read THE WHISPER NETWORK, comment below and tell us what you thought. Other conversations you might like… This is a public episode.

Mike Ames built his first recruitment business from scratch in 1989 with six months of industry experience and two partners. One of them died in a car accident after 18 months. He became MD. He had a breakdown. He rebuilt the business entirely around scalability, removed himself from the centre of it, and sold to a NYSE-listed company for £24 million at the age of 38.He thought that would feel like the finish line. It didn't. Within six months he was so low he could only manage one task a day. His therapist's parting advice: "Well, Michael, just get a job and you'll be fine." So he started again at 38, built a second business, sold that to Harvey Nash in 2017, and spent the next fifteen years working out why most recruitment founders never build something that truly works for them."I'm having to live a lot of my life through my grandchildren because I miss my children. Don't be that guy, right?"This week on The RAG Podcast, Mike Ames breaks down the PLW model: what a Profit, Lifestyle, Wealth recruitment business actually looks like, why the 360 model is structurally flawed, and what the "magic number" is that every founder should know before they spend another year grinding for a goal they have never properly calculated.Mike Ames is not selling a formula for a nine-figure exit.

He explains what county supervisors actually do — managing budgets, secondary roads, planning & zoning, and property taxes — and why he believes competitive races and representation from outside Ames are essential, especially after recent district changes.The conversation dives deep into the issues Ross is prioritizing:Expanding mental health services and first-responder training in rural Story CountyImproving roads, bridges, and infrastructureTax rate transparency and fiscal responsibilityStrong opposition to large data centers and their impact on water, electricity rates, farmland, and long-term local jobsCutting through partisan noise to actually listen to constituentsRoss also opens up about the importance of checking in on friends and family for mental health, the critical shortage of sports officials, and why everyday people should consider running for local office to give voters real choices on the ballot.Recorded live from the AKC Andrew Downs Studios and powered by Revelton Distilling Company.

So says Jordan Ames, who retired four years ago from the Marine Corps—and, for the first time in more than two decades, had to find a new purpose of his own. Now a Christ-centered leadership trainer and published author, Jordan shares the path that led to that purpose in this week's episode, and talks with Nate Dewberry about his core principles of leadership, how to keep from letting details and distractions divert you from doing God's work, and the unusual path that led him to marriage and six adopted kids—plus a “Miracle Number Seven.”Segments/chapters0:00 Intro/What does redemption mean to you?1:31 Finding a new purpose after 21 years in the Marines6:56 Leadership principles from the military that Jordan still carries with him10:01 The most difficult season of Jordan's civilian life17:54 How Jordan's book of devotionals came together24:58 Three core principles Jordan wants his readers to remember33:58 The worries and preoccupations that keep us from acting on God's vision44:40 Jordan's unconventional path to marriage and seven kids54:44 “The radical story of Number Seven”Find community, deepen your faith, join the brotherhood for free today at theredeemed.com/join.Visit The Redeemed's website for downloadable discussion question sets,  show notes, inspirational articles, more resources, or to share your testimony.Join our Exclusive Newsletter: Signup today and be the first to get notified on upcoming podcasts and new resources!The Redeemed is an organization giving men from all backgrounds a supportive, judgment-free environment, grounded in Christian love without demanding participation in any faith tradition, where they can open up about their challenges, worries, and failures—and celebrate their triumphs over those struggles.Starting Point: https://theredeemed.com/spJoin the Community: https://theredeemed.com/jointrHave a redemption story?
