True to its original author's voice and experience, ‘Girls in a World at War' resists contemporary cliches about the Greatest Generation to expose the good and the bad, the nobility and the meanness, of people thrown together with the fate of the globe at stake.” ~Todd DePastino is the author of Bill Mauldin: A Life Up Front and Executive Director of Veterans Breakfast Club.  http://kirkhousepublishers.comThe Douglas Coleman Show VE (Video Edition) offers video promotional packages for authors.Please see our website for complete details.  http://douglascolemanshow.com  Please help us to continue to bring you quality content by showing your support for our show.  https://fundrazr.com/e2CLX2?ref=ab_eCTqb8_ab_31eRtAh53pq31eRtAh53pq

The incident highlights the urgent need for collaboration between police and mental health professionals to handle situations involving individuals with mental health issues. Key themes discussed in this episode include the lack of mental health resources in law enforcement, the complexities of police encounters with individuals experiencing mental health crises, and the potential benefits of mental health crisis response programs. I cites examples of successful programs in Cumberland County, New Jersey, and Denver, Colorado, where police officers are paired with mental health screeners or behavioral health counselors to respond to 911 calls related to mental health issues. The tragic case of Ryan Gainer, a black child with autism who was shot and killed by police, highlights the need for improved collaboration between law enforcement and mental health professionals. Investing in mental health crisis units and response programs can save lives and prevent unnecessary use of force by police. Some states have implemented successful programs where police officers are paired with mental health screeners or behavioral health counselors to respond to 911 calls related to mental health issues. The lack of mental health resources and support systems within law enforcement is a significant problem that needs to be addressed. Delayed medical attention and the absence of proper aid can have fatal consequences in situations involving individuals with mental health issues. Please listen to the full episode for more insights and details on the tragic case of Ryan Garner and the urgent need for collaboration between police and mental health professionals.

Léelo en español Los propietarios de la primera bodega de su tipo en Apple Valley no renunciaron a sus sueños The doors slide open to Bodega 42 in Apple Valley and the aromas of fresh produce, meats and tortillas instantly welcome shoppers. The market's name comes from its close proximity to County Road 42.The aisles are stocked with beans, rice and other authentic staples of Latin American cooking. Bodegas, or food markets, can offer a taste of home for people living away from home.  As the number of Minnesotans with Hispanic heritage has steadily grown, so has the presence of markets which offer authentic tastes of Latin America. "In essence this is like bringing Mexico here, the aromas …this is as true as it can get,” said co-owner Saul Mellado. If the market's sights and smells take customers down memory lane, Ezequiel Quijada, also a co-owner, says that's intentional.“So there's that connection between what we make and what we offer to what people have traditionally been accustomed to in their country,” he said.Quijada and his two brothers-in-law Saul and Fernando Mellado, discussed the possibility of opening a Bodega for a couple years before the idea finally came to life. Immigrating from Mexico City to Minnesota in the late 1990s, Saul and Fernando cleaned restaurants to earn a living — often working overnight shifts — ending a workday at 8 a.m. and heading straight to school. “It's been a long journey,” Fernando Mellado said. He paused during the interview when he was asked about that journey — his eyes welled up with tears as he looked back on his life — from helping his mom wash clothes in Mexico, to becoming an entrepreneur. “The work, the sacrifice, and the stuff that people don't see,” he said. The three men, who are in their 30s and 40s, say those years of sacrifice and hard work are paying off. Saul Mellado says the nearly 22,000-square foot marketplace which also includes a butcher, deli and restaurant called Homshuk, is the first of its kind of this size in the state that is 100 percent Latino-owned. “We are a community of dreamers and people tend to give up on their dreams. I think anything's possible. We're in the land of opportunities,” Saul Mellado said. The market, says Saul Mellado, serves as a one-stop-shop for Minnesota's Venezuelan, Colombian, Ecuadorian, and Mexican communities.“This is exactly what they have in each corner of Mexico,” he said.Saul Mellado said there was a lack of products available to his family growing up so they had to drive to small stores in Minneapolis.Ezequiel Quijada, who's from El Salvador, says here, you can walk in and purchase a bag of freshly made tortillas — a common experience in Latin American countries that now exists in Apple Valley.“It's not something that's prepackaged with preservatives, they're able to come here and pick it up,” he said. “And that's something that at least for Fernando, Saul, they were very accustomed to in their country — where they could go to the corner store... and get a kilo of tortillas. That has been lost somewhat here because of the distance between a fresh source and what people consume and now we're able to offer that.”The three men say the market and restaurant are just the beginning to what will hopefully transform the lives of the generations who come after them. Fernando Mellado says they're examples of how hard work can pay off.“And that's why I can kind of get a little bit emotional,” he said thinking about the path they've taken. There has been a lot of sweat and tears. “But also [there] has been a lot of looking back and sitting here and then thinking, wow, you know, it's not as it's not as easy as people think. But also it's not impossible.” 

It's been legal to consume cannabis recreationally in Minnesota since August 1. Today, Gov. Tim Walz picked Erin Dupree to lead Minnesota's new Office of Cannabis Management. The St. Paul resident owns a CBD shop in Apple Valley, which she will give up to take the new job. Dupree has her work cut out for her. She will oversee the rulemaking that will be the foundation of legal marijuana sales in Minnesota. MPR News reporter Mark Zdechlik shared the details with host Cathy Wurzer.

More school districts are without school resource officers after the police departments in Apple Valley, Maple Grove and White Bear Lake have pulled them.The Minneapolis City Council on Tuesday decided to abandon a proposal to house 3rd Precinct officers in a building downtown for the next decade. This is an MPR News morning update, hosted by Cathy Wurzer. Music by Gary Meister.

More school districts are without school resource officers after the police departments in Apple Valley, Maple Grove and White Bear Lake have pulled them. A change in state law – which deals with the types of physical restraints that can be used on students – has led about 40 law agencies to suspend their school resource officer programs. The sparring over the law brings to mind questions about the role and effectiveness of police officers in schools. For more, MPR News host Cathy Wurzer spoke with James Densley. He is a professor and department chair of criminal justice at Metro State University.

Katie Carter is an art lover and former arts reporter for Northern Community Radio. Recently, she made the drive to the Edge Center for the Arts in Bigfork, Minn., where she says she was blown away by Terry Leinbach's show “Wonder.” The show includes 39 large, abstract paintings, which Carter calls “a feast of texture and color” that offers layered imagery whose meaning and emotion seemed to evolve the longer she looked. Leinbach leaves room for this wonder-led interpretation: she numbers — but does not title — each piece. At the center of the gallery space are small wood block creations marked with words that invite the viewer to stop and contemplate. “It struck me in my cells, when I looked at her art,” Carter says. “It just had such a vibrancy and energetic-ness to it ... To me, her stuff could be right next to Helen Frankenthaler.” Leinbach lives near Blackduck, Minn. A retired Head Start teacher, she taught herself painting during the pandemic, working on large canvases repurposed from secondhand stores or stretched by her husband. “Wonder” runs through Sept. 30.  Jim Robinson is co-founder of Table Salt Productions and an alumnus of the Brave New Workshop. He's a big fan of writer and performer Josh Carson. Robinson is looking forward to seeing Carson's show “The (Almost) Complete and (Mostly) Accurate History of Alcohol" which opens Friday at Bryant Lake Bowl in Minneapolis.  Best known for co-creating “A Very Die Hard Christmas,” Carson has also dived into history to create plays on John Wilkes Booth and Nellie Bly, among others. This show explores the way alcohol has shaped our lives, causing — and occasionally solving — problems from ancient Greece through today. “You walk away from these shows breathless because they are so packed with comedy and information,” Robinson says. “He's a brilliant writer.” The show runs through Sept. 30. Poets & Pints marks its 100th show next Wednesday, and poet Charles Curry of Apple Valley says he “wouldn't miss it for the world.” The monthly poetry event takes place at Sisyphus Brewing. Curry describes it as "an exceptionally welcoming show for poets," fostering a friendly environment. Both seasoned and novice poets are invited to perform a wide array of styles, including formal and free verse poetry, as well as spoken word and rap.Poet Tony Plocido is the host and curator of the events. At a typical event, poets fill out a quick form ahead of time for an opportunity to present their work; an open mic follows the scheduled readers. The 100th show features Minnesota poets Shane Hawley, Thadra Sheridan, Joe Davis and Khary Jackson, as well as Shawn Pavey of Kansas City.  The nonprofit show is part of the League of Minnesota Poets, whose local chapter is Cracked Walnut. Shows take place on the third Wednesday of the month. Register to read at future events here.

It's Monday, July 17th, A.D. 2023. This is The Worldview in 5 Minutes heard at www.TheWorldview.com. I'm Adam McManus.  (Adam@TheWorldview.com) By Adam McManus Mayflower Chinese Pastor: U.S. must pressure China on religious liberty A pastor who led a congregation of 64 Chinese Christians from religious persecution in China thanked God for bringing them to freedom in the United States. However, he also warned that many faithful heroes still face oppression from the Chinese Communist Party, reports The Christian Post. Pastor Pan Yongguang of the Mayflower Church, whose members fled to South Korea in 2019 after encountering threats and interrogations from Chinese police, spoke outside the U.S. Capitol Wednesday alongside ChinaAid Founder Bob Fu. The Mayflower Church gained its name after its members arrived at South Korea's Jeju Island seeking religious freedom, similar to the 17th-century Protestant separatists who traveled to the British colonies. They later traveled to Bangkok, Thailand, hoping to get refugee status from the United Nations, but were detained in an immigration detention center. Four years after fleeing the Chinese Communist Party, Pan and 63 members of the church received humanitarian parole in the United States. In April, they arrived in Dallas, Texas, after concentrated efforts from Fu and multiple government officials and agencies to negotiate their release.  Pastor Pan believes the U.S. government should put "pressure" on the persecutors in China. Micah 6:8 asks, “What does the Lord require of you? To act justly and to love mercy and to walk humbly with your God.” Benjamin Netanyahu rushed to hospital On Saturday, Israeli prime minister Benjamin Netanyahu was rushed to a hospital to undergo medical tests. Netanyahu, age 73, was briefly hospitalized in October, after feeling pain in his chest in the weeks before last year's election. Tucker Carlson vs. Mike Pence Former Fox News host Tucker Carlson clashed with former Vice President Mike Pence at  The Family Leadership Summit in Des Moines, Iowa on Friday. Listen. CARLSON: “I'm sorry, Mr. Vice President, have you, I know you're running for president. You are …” PENCE: “Thank you. Thank you for noticing.” CARLSON: “You are distressed that the Ukrainians don't have enough American tanks. Every city in the United States has become much worse over the past three years.” PENCE: “Yeah.” CARLSON: “Drive around. There's not one city that's gotten better in the United States. And it's visible. Our economy has degraded, the suicide rate has jumped, public filth and disorder and crime have exponentially increased. And yet, your concern is that the Ukrainians, a country most people can't find on a map, who've received tens of billions of US tax dollars don't have enough tanks. I think it's a fair question to ask like, ‘Where's the concern for the United States in that?'” PENCE: “Well, it's not my concern. Tucker, I've heard that routine from you before, but that's not my concern. I'm running for President of the United States because I think this country's in a lot of trouble. I think Joe Biden has weakened America at home and abroad. “And as President of the United States, we're going to restore law and order in our cities. We're going to secure our border. We're going to get this economy moving again. And we're going to make sure that we have men and women on our courts at every level that will stand for the right to life and defend all the God-given liberties enshrined in our Constitution. Anybody that says that we can't be the leader of the free world and solve our problems at home has a pretty small view of the greatest nation on Earth. We can do both.” Robert F. Kennedy Jr.: Fauci caused injury by withholding early COVID treatment Appearing on Fox News with Jesse Watters, Democrat presidential candidate Robert F. Kennedy Jr. chastised Dr. Anthony Fauci for withholding effective treatments for the coronavirus that led to a disproportionate number of deaths in America compared to countries which equipped their citizens with preventive measures. WATTERS: “Tell me about Fauci. You wrote this big fat book – [Real Anthony Fauci]. You think Fauci is the Devil.” KENNEDY:  “I think [Fauci] caused a lot of injury by withholding early treatment from Americans. We racked up the highest death count in the world. We only have 4.2% of the globe's population, but we had 16% of the COVID deaths in this country. And that was from bad policy. “There's countries that did the opposite of what we did -- that provided ivermectin, hydroxychloroquine, other early treatments to their populations, and had 1/200 of our death rate! Oh, there are many, many things that we did wrong in this country. And some of those were knowingly. Some of the things that were done by public health officials at that time, they knew that they would be harmful!” Kennedy also addressed why America has not held China accountable for creating the coronavirus in the Wuhan lab. WATTERS:  “Why hasn't the Biden administration punished China?” KENNEDY: “I think one of the reasons we haven't investigated the [Chinese] Wuhan Lab is because the U.S. government, not just through the NIH [National Institutes of Health], but through the CIA, and through USAID [United States Agency for International Development], was actually funding the studies in the Wuhan Lab. And we did a very, very big technology transfer of bio weapons technology to the Wuhan lab, bio weapons technology that was developed at NIH expense.”   Robert F. Kennedy, Jr. noted that the National Institutes of Health gave $26 million in funding to the Wuhan lab. And the United States Agency for International Development, which was functioning as a CIA surrogate, gave over $64 million. Plus, the Pentagon also gave a lot of money. Numbers 32:33 warns, “Your sin will find you out.” 13-year-old Callie's gift of her tithe money to The Worldview On Friday, I featured soundbites from my conversation with 14-year-old Theo Jantz, a Worldview listener in Sexsmith, Alberta, Canada, who donated $13.13 to keep this newscast on the air.  He challenged other kids to donate some of their tithe money as well. Callie Mishchenko, a 13-year-old listener in Ingersoll, Ontario, Canada, accepted that challenge and donated $32. CALLIE: “Theo challenged to empty your tithing [jar] to The Worldview. So, that's what I did.” She explained where the $32 came from. CALLIE: “The $32 is from me doing jobs around the house and I put 10% of it into tithing.” McMANUS: “What are the jobs around the house?” CALLIE: “Helping watch some of my siblings, scoop and poop, weeding.” McMANUS: “Scoop and poop? This is a new one. Is that for the dog, the cat, the cow, the horse? What do we have out there? The other siblings? Are the siblings going in the yard?” CALLIE: “No, scooping the poop is for the dogs. Scooping the dogs' poop.” McMANUS: “How many dogs do you have? CALLIE: “Two. Two dogs.” McMANUS: “What is it?” CALLIE: “Scoop and poop.” McMANUS: “Scoop and poop? It makes more sense to say ‘poop and scoop' because the poop happens first. Then, the scoop happens second. You can't scoop until they poop. So, you really need to say, ‘Poop and scoop.' Why do y'all have it backwards there in Canada?” CALLIE: “I don't know.” On a more serious note, I asked Callie's father, Dan, what he appreciated about The Worldview newscast. DAN: “You're one of the regular sources where I get to hear about the persecuted church. Although it breaks my heart, we need to know as Christians who are isolated here in North America. I really appreciate that.” 29 Worldview listeners gave $6,336.40 We broke our one-day, 25-donor record this year.  Incredibly, 29 Worldview listeners donated toward our $80,000 goal by Monday, July 31st to keep this unique Christian newscast on the air. Our thanks to Katrina, the 8-year-old sister of Callie, in Ingersoll, Ontario, Canada, who gave $1.80.  We appreciate Sarah in Tacoma, Washington, Shari in Lehigh Acres, Florida, DeAnne in St. Paul, Minnesota, Eileen in Brentwood, Tennessee, and Sally in Milford, Ohio – each of whom gave $25. We thank God for Callee in Ingersoll, Ontario, Canada who gave $32 as well as Herb in Greenville, Texas and David in Colorado Springs, Colorado – both of whom gave $50, and Eben in Kansas City, Missouri who gave $75. We were touched by the kindness of Max in Cordova, Illinois, Sally in Coeur D'Alene, Idaho, Michelle in Sparta, Michigan, Summer in Calvert City, Kentucky, and George in Leesburg, Virginia – each of whom gave $100 as well as Paul in Keller, Texas who pledged $10/month for 12 months for a total gift of $120. Three cheers for Kathryn in Apple Valley, California who gave $162.60, Tristan in Summerdale, Alabama who gave $170, Richard in Ooltewah, Tennessee who gave $250, and Rick in Elma, Washington who gave $300. Kudos to Lucinda in Winfield, Missouri, Mary in Phoenix, Arizona, Adrian in Black Creek, British Columbia, Canada, Richard in Camden, Wyoming, and Carlee in Keswick Ridge, New Brunswick, Canada – each of whom pledged $25/month for 12 months for a total gift of $300 each. And we ‘re grateful for the generosity of Tim in Newton, Kansas who gave $500, Benton in Kingwood, Texas and Casey in Apple Valley, California – both of whom pledged $50/month for 12 months for a total gift of $600 each, and Roger in Rapid City, South Dakota who gave $1,300. Those 29 new donations add up to $6,336.40. Ready for our new grand total? Drum roll please. (Drum roll sound effect) $26,293.41 (Crowd cheering sound effect) In order to hit our $60,000 immediate goal by this Friday, July 21st, we need to raise $33,706.59. Remember how I announced on Friday that I had a special update about this month-long fundraiser?  Well, here's the exciting news!  Shannan in Alexandria, Minnesota is offering to match, dollar for dollar, the next 10 Worldview listeners who pledge $50/month for 12 months or give a one-time gift of $600.  Thanks to Shannan's match, your total annual gift will be $1,200 instead of $600. That's an amazingly generous offer!  When 10 people make that pledge, we will have raised $12,000. So, if you have been waiting on the sidelines, and you have the financial ability to step up to the plate with a $50 monthly pledge, please do so today. That would leave us with $21,706.09 to raise by this Friday. Then, we would need to find another 18 people to pledge $50/month for 12 months.  And another 32 listeners to pledge $25/month for 12 months. With multiple thousands of listeners on multiple platforms, we know that God can indeed provide these funds.

It's Tuesday, July 11th, A.D. 2023. This is The Worldview in 5 Minutes heard at www.TheWorldview.com. I'm Adam McManus.  (Adam@TheWorldview.com) By Kevin Swanson 1,000 Nigerian Christians killed in last 30 days Nigeria has turned into the hardest place on Earth for Christians.   Equipping the Persecuted reports that over the last 30 days, more than 1,000 Christians have been brutally killed in Nigeria — a higher rate than ever for the genocide wrought by Muslims in that country since 2008.  Sound of Freedom takes 3rd place at box office Sound of Freedom. That's the major motion picture film addressing the problem of child trafficking. It took third place in the box office over the last week, topping $40 million, reports LifeSiteNews. The goal was to sell 2,000,000 tickets to mirror the number of children who have been trafficked globally.  Remarkably, they have already sold 3,863,582 tickets. Sound of Freedom experienced the most successful opening weekend for a religious film since 2014's Heaven is for Real. Watch the Sound of Freedom trailer and get tickets through a special link in our transcript today at www.TheWorldview.com.    Muslim countries have worst slave trafficking The recently released 2022 United Nations Office on Drugs and Crime Global Report on Trafficking in Persons finds that 28% of trafficked persons from Africa and Asia wind up in the Middle East, 10% in Western Europe, 8% in Eastern Asia, and 5% in North America. The Muslim countries again come out as the very worst for slave trafficking.  In relation to the prevention of child abuse and exploitation, Out of the Shadows.global finds the most unsafe nations in the world are largely Muslim countries.  The worst is Niger. Then comes Cameroon, Saudi Arabia, Congo, Ethiopia, Algeria, and Pakistan.   The best places in the world are Canada, France, South Korea, Sweden, and Australia.  If you want to help fund the fight against trafficking, give a donation through Shared Hope International, a group which was featured on Family Talk with Dr. James Dobson in a conversation with former Congresswoman Linda Smith. Their website is www.SharedHope.org. Pervasive porn problem Approximately 35% of all internet downloads are related to pornography. Additionally, 77% of men aged 18-24 visited pornographic websites at least once per month.  And the use among younger men is increasing.   It is estimated to be worth around $97 billion, with annual revenue from U.S.-based companies alone reaching up to $14 billion.  The largest porn-consuming nations in the world are the U.S., the United Kingdom, and Brazil. Those three countries are followed by Japan, France, Mexico, the Philippines, Germany, Italy, Canada, Spain, and Egypt.   The United States, in first place, has 13 times the porn consumers per capita over the number two nation for porn which is the United Kingdom.  Of the major nations in the world, the most unsafe places for the crime of rape include Botswana, South Africa, Costa Rica, Nicaragua, Australia, Belgium, and the United States.  71% of Americans support homosexual faux marriage Gallup's annual Values and Beliefs poll conducted back in May found that the number of Americans supporting homosexual mirage, has finally leveled at 71%. That's the same as last year, and up from 35% at the turn of the century. Support for homosexual relationships has dropped Yet the nation's support for same-sex relationships has dropped for the first time from 71% to 64% since last year. The largest demographic that has cooled its enthusiasm for this form of sexual perversion was Republicans — an appreciable drop from 56% support to 41% support.  Jeremiah 18:7-8 says, “The instant I speak concerning a nation and concerning a kingdom, to pluck up, to pull down, and to destroy it, if that nation against whom I have spoken turns from its evil, I will relent of the disaster that I thought to bring upon it.” America's social conservatives rising The percent of Americans who call themselves socially conservative is climbing up as well — up to 38% from 30% in 2021.  That's the highest score since 2012.   The ratio of those who refer to themselves as socially liberal has slipped from 33% to 29%, according to the Gallup study.  Disney and Target stocks are down Disney stock closed around $88 yesterday. That's a 55% drop from a $195 high in 2021. Target stock stands at $132 — about half of where the stock stood in November 2021. Walmart stock is up slightly since 2021. What part is pop culture playing in the demise of Target?  Gospel singer Jimmy Levy's song, “Boycott Target,” squeezed out Taylor Swift for the #1 spot on iTunes around the first of June, reports Fox News.  Additionally, Levy's “Reclaim the Rainbow” took the #1 position again last week.  Let's keep in mind 1 John 2:17.  It says, “And the world is passing away, and the lust of it; but he who does the will of God abides forever.” Sky high mortgage rates Mortgage rates hit 7.22% last week. That's the highest for the year. Buyers are hesitant to jump in. And sellers are more hesitant to sell now that interest rates have doubled over the last 18 months.  Real estate purchase applications are down 22% last week, in a year-over-year comparison.  Layoffs in info tech, designer clothes, luxury cars, comm services Layoffs.fyi calculates a total of 216,000 layoffs thus far in 2023, compared to 165,000 layoffs in 2022 — most of which are technology jobs. Nonetheless, the bull markets for the first six months of 2023 were still the sectors including information technology, designer clothes, luxury cars, and communication services. By contrast, utilities, energy, and health care were the worst performing sectors in the U.S. stock market, reports MSN.  Worldview listeners weigh in from Texas, Rhode Island, & Guatemala Worldview listeners continue to email me about why they like the newscast at Adam@TheWorldview.com.  (Remember to include your whole name, city and state, and your country if outside America.) Marie Curb in Plainview, Texas wrote, “My son, Steven, and I listen to The Worldview while eating breakfast.  We enjoy hearing when God's people take a stand and when you use Scripture to back any point you're making. Thank you for the time and energy put into getting out the truth!” Officer Andrew Morgan in Tiverton, Rhode Island wrote, “I just wanted to write to thank you for the newscast. I really enjoy listening to it on my way to drop my son off at daycare. It keeps me informed of current events from a Christian perspective and calls out sin straightforwardly for what it is. The Worldview serves as a great encouragement, and a constant reminder to pray for the persecuted church. Keep up the good work.” And Philip Reber in Chimaltenango, Guatemala wrote, “I usually listen to your newscast together with the Generations program while I'm at work, partly because my wife only understands Spanish. I enjoy the news coming from a distinctly biblical worldview. And I highly enjoy hearing the news from someone I consider a friend, as we communicate by e-mail occasionally. God bless!” 11 Worldview listeners gave $2,298.38 Recently, 11 Worldview listeners gave toward our $80,000 goal by Monday, July 31st to keep this unique Christian newscast on the air.

In 2010, after 26 years at Seacoast, they moved to Indiana where they both coached at Lawrence Swim Team while their daughter Jessica trained at the USA Diving National Training Center based out of IUPUI. They finally ended up in Minnesota where they run ⁠Riptide Swim Team⁠ in Apple Valley. Amy has coached both swimming and diving since 1983 in New Hampshire and Indiana. She is an ASCA Level 4 certified coach. In addition to her coaching duties, she serves as Riptide's team manager.

This episode's topic is "How to Write a Hit Song". Our guest this week to share 3 thoughts on this topic is Marty Dodson, who is a Nashville-based prolific songwriter with ten #1 hit songs, a partner & co-founder of SongTown.Com and a writer for Sail Away Songs. TOPIC:  How to Write a Hit Song GUEST: Marty Dodson THOUGHT #1Write Something You Care About THOUGHT #2Study the Craft of Songwriting THOUGHT #3Keep Clear Communication as Job #1 CONNECT:Website: MartyDodson.comWebsite: SongTown.comPodcast: SongTown on Songwriting PodcastTwitter: @MartyDodsonInstagram: @MartyDSongsFacebook: Marty Dodson SongwriterTik Tok: MartyDSongs MARTY DODSON'S BIO:Marty Dodson was born in Apple Valley, California, and moved around for several years until his family settled in Nashville, TN. Growing up, he was intimidated by the sheer number of people coming to Nashville to become singers or songwriters. So, he went to college and earned a degree in psychology. After working ten years as a youth minister, Marty decided to change careers. Trouble was, he didn't know what he wanted to be when he grew up. He fumbled around for several years, doing odd jobs and trying to decide on a direction for his life. Finally, a book he read helped him realize that what he REALLY wanted to be was a songwriter. He had run into Gordon Payne, a member of the Crickets, while working one of his odd jobs. Gordon helped him re-write one of his songs and demo it in a Nashville studio. Marty was hooked. He threw caution to the wind, quit the other jobs and began writing full-time. 10 #1 songs and more than 135 cuts later, Marty has become one of the most accomplished writers in Nashville with notable hit singles such as "Fire It Up” by Joe Cocker, “Everybody Wants to Go to Heaven” by Kenny Chesney, “Must Be Doin' Somethin' Right” and “Let Me Down Easy” by Billy Currington. His songs have been recorded by numerous other artists including: Blake Shelton, George Strait, Carrie Underwood, Rascal Flatts, The Plain White T's, The Oak Ridge Boys, Don Williams, Johnny Reid, Billy Ray Cyrus and Big & Rich. Marty's self-professed “greatest achievement” in his songwriting career to date was knocking artist Psy (“Gangnam Style”) out of the #1 spot in South Korea and winning “Song of the Year” honors for South Korea and all of Asia with his song “Bounce” recorded by Cho Yong Pil. Marty currently resides in Nashville TN with his wife Candy.  He is a partner and co-founder of SongTown.Com and is a writer for Sail Away Songs. NOTABLE CUTS:“Must Be Doin' Somethin' Right” – Billy Currington  2 Week #1 Single – Platinum Single“Everybody Wants To Go To Heaven” – Kenny Chesney  2 Week #1 Single“Let Me Down Easy” – Billy Currington  #1 Single“Fire It Up” – Joe Cocker and Johnny Reid  #1 Single in Canada – Johnny Reid  #1 Single in Germany – Joe Cocker“Bounce” – Cho Yong Pil  #1 Single in South Korea – Asian Song of The Year 2013“Songs Like This” – Carrie Underwood  Double Platinum Album“Cirque Dans La Rue” and “Killer” – The Plain White T's“While You Loved Me” – Rascal Flatts  #7 Single – Double Platinum Album“Could It Be” – Charlie Worsham  #12 Single – Highest Debut Single of 2013“Dirt” – Dean Brody – Top Ten Single – Canada“Immortal” – Saving Jane“Doing It To Country Songs” – Blake Shelton“Did It For The Party” – Big And Rich“Harder” – Steep Canyon Rangers“Bernadine”, “Bohemian” and “Around Like Vinyl” – Songs From The Road Band BRAND RESOURCES:Evergreen Podcast Network - EvergereenPodcasts.comThoughts That Rock – ThoughtsThatRock.comCertified Rock Star - CertifiedRockStar.comBooky Call - https://www.bookycall.comBooky Call - Book Review App on Apple - Apps.Apple.comBooky Call - Book Review App on Google Play - Play.Google.Com Service That Rocks: TCreate Unforgettable Experiences  and Turn Customers into Fans (Jim Knight) - ServiceThatRocksBook.comLeadership That Rocks: Take Your Brand's Culture to Eleven and Amp Up Results (Jim Knight) - LeadershipThatRocksBook.comCulture That Rocks: How to Revolutionize Your Company's Culture (Jim Knight) – CultureThatRocks.comBlack Sheep: Unleash the Extraordinary, Awe-Inspiring, Undiscovered You (Brant Menswar) - FindYourBlackSheep.comRock ‘n Roll With It: Overcoming the Challenge of Change (Brant Menswar) – RocknRollWithIt.comCannonball Kids' cancer – CannonballKidscancer.orgBig Kettle Drum - BigKettleDrum.comSpectacle Photography (Show/Website Photos) – SpectaclePhoto.comJeffrey Todd “JT” Keel (Show Music) - JT Keel

Matthew John Hoffman was a strange guy. He was in a constant flux of being a quiet, yet unassuming guy to then having bouts of strange and off-putting behavior. It was his love of trees that gave him comfort and seemed to keep him settled at times, but on November 9, 2010 he broke into a quiet home in Apple Valley, Ohio, brutally taking the lives of Tina Hermann, her 11 year old son Kody and her best friend Stephanie Sprang, before leaving with 13 year old Sarah Maynard in his clutches.  Soon, Hoffman's obsession with trees would become the defining piece of this killer's pathology. In Part 1, we discuss his puzzling history, the lives of Tina, Kody and Stephanie, and the house of horrors he brought Sarah back to.  Check out this amazing book about the case!
