Original air date: November 14, 2025 President Trump is ⁠angrily urging⁠ Republicans not to join Democrats in pushing for release of the Jeffrey Epstein files. But all of a sudden, with the discharge petition set to force a House vote, things are rapidly going in the wrong direction for Trump. In a surprise, Representative Marjorie Taylor Greene ⁠now predicts that the number⁠ of Republicans who will vote to release the files will be “a lot higher” than anyone expects. If the GOP defectors hit truly sizable numbers, as suddenly looks likely, it will be a bombshell with terrible implications for Trump, ramping up the pressure across the board in any number of ways. But the process that's about to unfold is complex. So we talked to Democratic Representative Yassamin Ansari of Arizona, a high profile voice throughout this saga. She explains what it's like to talk personally with Epstein's victims, why Republicans are finding it harder to resist pressure, what Democrats will do next to keep the story alive, and why this will keep getting worse for Trump until the truth comes out in the end.

In the final episode of the year, CannCon and Ashe in America take a wide-ranging but focused look at the ongoing unraveling of the 2020 election narrative, with Fulton County, Georgia at the center of the discussion. The hosts break down newly allowed access to physical ballots, the staggering costs demanded to comply, and why those costs raise serious questions about obstruction and accountability. The conversation revisits documented discrepancies in hand counts, repeated ballot scanning, deleted records, and sworn testimony regarding remote access to voting systems. From Georgia to Colorado to Arizona, the episode connects patterns across states while emphasizing that election interference ultimately required Americans in positions of authority to act. As the year closes, CannCon and Ashe reflect on the long fight for election transparency, the role of grassroots investigators, and why unresolved election crimes threaten the legitimacy of every other issue facing the country. This episode serves as both a year-in-review and a warning: without verifiable elections, nothing else can truly be fixed.

What happens when a man decides an airplane cabin is the perfect place to hold church? This week, we discuss the now-viral moment of a passenger pulling out his guitar mid-flight to serenade a captive audience with praise songs. Some travelers joined in while everyone else stared ahead in silent fury. We talk about public space, consent, religious entitlement, and why "sharing the Good News" at 30,000 feet feels less like ministry and more like an in-flight nightmare. Also on the show: Franklin Graham preaching about God's love and God's hatred at a Christmas service hosted at the Pentagon; an Arizona lawmaker pushing to force "intelligent design" into public school science classes; the Catholic Archdiocese of New York selling off prime real estate to pay clergy abuse settlements after its insurer refuses coverage; an Anglican bishop cleared after allegedly mishandling multiple abuse cases; a self-styled prophet predicting a Christmas flood and building multiple arks to survive it; and a surprisingly hopeful look at how AI is helping scholars translate ancient religious texts—possibly demystifying scripture faster than ever before.

When Nicki Minaj stepped on stage in Phoenix, Arizona, with one hand clasping Erika Kirk and the other waving to a crowd of white supremacists, even I was shocked. We've known the Queen of Rap to me many unsavory things: an insecure egomaniac, a steadfast defender of predators, an obsessive poster (she has my solidarity on that one). But “fascist propagandist” I did not see coming. Today, Olayemi Olurin, Kat Tenbarge and I draw a map of Nicki's life to make sense of how she got here, what she hopes to receive from it, and if it'll even pan out.

Munaf Manji and SleepyJ talk NFL Week 17 player props. The NFL regular season is winding down, and Week 17 presents a complex betting landscape shaped by playoff positioning, player motivation, and late season incentives. On the latest episode of RJ Bell's Dream Preview, Munaf Manji and SleepyJ broke down how those factors are influencing player prop markets across the board, with an emphasis on discipline and game script rather than chasing inflated narratives. They noted that with many playoff seeds already decided, sportsbooks and bettors alike are gravitating toward incentive driven props, which can cause numbers to move quickly and lose value. As a result, both stressed the importance of identifying matchups where motivation and opportunity align naturally rather than forcing plays based on headlines. One early focus was quarterback props, starting with Geno Smith under his passing yardage total against the Giants. SleepyJ argued that Las Vegas has little incentive to open up the offense, especially with Brock Bowers sidelined and Smith dealing with lingering injuries. A conservative, run heavy approach or even an early exit for Smith made the under appealing. Manji agreed, adding that the Raiders' broader organizational incentives point toward limiting risk at quarterback. On the other side of the spectrum, Trevor Lawrence was highlighted as a strong over candidate against Indianapolis. The Colts' secondary has struggled badly in recent weeks, and with the AFC South still at stake, Lawrence is expected to shoulder the offensive load again, making his passing yardage line attractive. In the running back market, SleepyJ took a contrarian stance with Chuba Hubbard under his combined rushing and receiving total, citing likely negative game script and a shifting backfield rotation that favors Rico Dowdle in passing situations. Manji countered with Chase Brown over his rushing yards against Arizona, pointing to a Cardinals defense that has consistently allowed explosive ground production and a Bengals offense capable of playing from ahead. Wide receiver props followed a similar pattern of value hunting. Romeo Doubs was identified as an over play due to his low yardage number and his established role as a downfield threat in Green Bay's offense. Manji expanded on the incentive angle with Stefon Diggs, who is chasing significant contract bonuses tied to receptions and yardage. Against a depleted Jets secondary, Diggs' receiving yardage over was framed as both situationally and statistically sound. At tight end, SleepyJ continued his season long strategy of targeting Indianapolis with opposing tight ends, backing Brenton Strange over his reception total as a reliable option for Lawrence. Manji stayed in a high total environment with Trey McBride over his receiving yards against Cincinnati, citing the Bengals' ongoing struggles defending the position and McBride's strong road splits. The episode's featured best bet centered on Saquon Barkley over his rushing yardage against Buffalo. Both hosts emphasized the Bills' vulnerability against the run and Philadelphia's recent commitment to feeding Barkley, making the over a straightforward play despite a marquee matchup. Together, the discussion reinforced a clear theme for Week 17, focus on matchup driven edges and realistic game flow rather than crowded incentive narratives, a disciplined approach as the regular season reaches its final stretch.

Police Addicted to Drugs And His Amazing Recovery, Special Episode. Police Officer Attacked, Multiple Surgeries, Forced Retirement, Addiction, and an Inspiring Recovery. This special episode is streaming for free on the Law Enforcement Talk Radio Show and Podcast website, on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, YouTube, and most every major Podcast platform Brock Bevell never imagined that a single violent moment would change the entire trajectory of his life. A retired Mesa, Arizona police officer, Brock dedicated his career to public service, until a targeted act of violence ended his time on the job and set him on a painful, unexpected journey through addiction and recovery. Look for The Law Enforcement Talk Radio Show and Podcast on social media like their Facebook , Instagram , LinkedIn , Medium and other social media platforms. “She threw the truck into reverse and hit me,” Brock recalls. “In an instant, everything changed.” Supporting articles about this and much more from Law Enforcement Talk Radio Show and Podcast in platforms like Medium , Blogspot and Linkedin . A Career Cut Short by Violence While serving with the Mesa Police Department, Brock was seriously injured during a violent incident involving a vehicle. The attack caused devastating, career-ending injuries and required multiple surgeries. What followed was a long and grueling rehabilitation process, one familiar to many injured officers across the country. Police Addicted to Drugs And His Amazing Recovery, Special Episode. Available for free on their website and streaming on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, Youtube and other podcast platforms. To manage the intense pain, Brock was prescribed opioid pain medication. Like countless patients recovering from serious injuries, he trusted the prescriptions meant to help him heal. Instead, they quietly became the beginning of a much deeper struggle. From Recovery to Addiction During months of surgeries and physical therapy, Brock developed a severe dependence on opioid painkillers. What started as medically prescribed relief slowly evolved into addiction. “I didn't recognize myself anymore,” Brock says. “My world became smaller and darker. I was surviving, not living.” Brock openly shares how addiction affected every part of his life, his relationships, his identity, and his sense of purpose after forced retirement from policing. His story reflects a reality many first responders face but few openly discuss. Police Addicted to Drugs And His Amazing Recovery, Special Episode. The Law Enforcement Talk Radio Show and Podcast episode is available for free on their website , Apple Podcasts , Spotify and most major podcast platforms. The Science Behind the Crisis Research underscores just how common Brock's experience is. A major study published in JAMA Internal Medicine by researchers at the Stanford University School of Medicine found that patients undergoing 11 common surgeries faced an increased risk of becoming chronic opioid users. Lead author Eric Sun, MD, PhD, explained: “For a lot of surgeries, there is a higher chance of getting hooked on painkillers.” The study defined chronic opioid use as filling 10 or more prescriptions or receiving more than a 120-day supply within a year after surgery. Patients undergoing knee surgery faced the highest risk, nearly five times that of nonsurgical patients, followed by gallbladder surgery. Importantly, the study did not suggest avoiding surgery, but emphasized the need for careful monitoring and alternative pain management strategies. Police Addicted to Drugs And His Amazing Recovery, Special Episode. The interview can be found on The Law Enforcement Talk Radio Show and Podcast website, on Apple podcasts, Spotify, Youtube and on LinkedIn, Facebook, Instagram, and across most podcast platforms where listeners will find authentic law enforcement stories. Trauma, Policing, and Substance Use Law enforcement officers face unique occupational hazards, including repeated exposure to trauma. Studies show that substance use disorders, including alcohol and drug dependence, occur at higher rates among officers, particularly those experiencing psychological distress. In nationally representative data, more than half of men with lifetime PTSD also had a history of alcohol abuse or dependence. For police officers, these risks are compounded by work stress, injuries, and the cultural stigma surrounding mental health and asking for help. “We wear the uniform, but we're human,” Brock says. “And sometimes the damage doesn't show until it's almost too late.” The full podcast episode is streaming now on their website, on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, Youtube and across Facebook, Instagram, and LinkedIn. Hitting Bottom and Choosing Recovery Brock's turning point came when he realized addiction had taken everything it could from him. With professional help, support, and unwavering determination, he entered recovery and committed to sobriety. “Recovery didn't give me my old life back,” he says. “It gave me a new one, one with purpose.” Police Addicted to Drugs And His Amazing Recovery, Special Episode. Today, Brock uses his experience to help others struggling with addiction, trauma, and life after law enforcement. His message is clear: recovery is possible, even after profound loss. Healing Beyond the Badge In the aftermath of violence and trauma, communities often look to police officers as symbols of strength. Yet officers themselves must also heal. Proactive wellness programs, mental health resources, and open conversations about addiction are critical, not just for officers, but for the communities they serve. You can find the show on Facebook, Instagram, Pinterest, X (formerly Twitter), and LinkedIn, as well as read companion articles and updates on Medium, Blogspot, YouTube, and even IMDB. Mesa, located just east of Phoenix, is known for its deep history, from the ancient Hohokam culture to the modern city Brock once patrolled. It is also where his story originated, one of resilience, accountability, and hope. Listen to Brock's Story Brock Bevell's journey is featured in this Special Episode of the Law Enforcement Talk Radio Show and Podcast available for free on their website, also on Platforms like Apple Podcasts, Spotify, YouTube and most major podcast platforms. His story is also being shared across their Facebook, Instagram, LinkedIn, and other Social Media and News outlets. Listen to Brock's inspiring account of what happened, how prescribed opioids led to addiction, and how recovery helped him rebuild his life, and helps others do the same.

===== MDJ Script/ Top Stories for December 26th Publish Date:  December 26th    Commercial: From the BG AD Group Studio, Welcome to the Marietta Daily Journal Podcast.    Today is Friday, December 26th and Happy Birthday to Lars Ulrich I’m Keith Ippolito and here are the stories Cobb is talking about, presented by Times Journal Piastra closing, reopening as café and grocery in January Salleigh Grubbs appointed to State Election Board Bittersweet: Candymakers navigate tariff, supply chain challenges during holiday season Plus, Leah McGrath from Ingles Markets on holiday foods All of this and more is coming up on the Marietta Daily Journal Podcast, and if you are looking for community news, we encourage you to listen and subscribe!  BREAK: INGLES 10 STORY 1: Piastra closing, reopening as café and grocery in January  Big changes are coming to Piastra, the Italian spot that’s been a Marietta Square favorite since 2015. After New Year’s Eve, the restaurant will close its doors—but not for good. In January, it’ll reopen as Asher and Rose Modern Grocers, a café and market dreamed up by co-owners Greg Lipman and his mom, Betty Bahl. Why the shift? “We’ve been listening,” Lipman said. Locals have been asking for a specialty grocery store on the Square for years, and now they’re getting one—complete with fresh bread, local produce, prepared meals, and an all-day breakfast café. “We love this community,” Lipman added. STORY 2: Salleigh Grubbs appointed to State Election Board Salleigh Grubbs, former Cobb GOP Chair, is stepping into a new role on the State Election Board. The Georgia Republican Party announced Monday that Lt. Gov. Burt Jones appointed her to fill the seat left vacant by Rick Jeffares. It’s a “recess appointment,” Grubbs explained, and she’s diving in immediately. “I’m honored, humbled, all of it,” she said. “Fair elections are something I’ve been passionate about for years, and I’m ready to get to work.” A Marietta native, Grubbs led the Cobb GOP until earlier this year and now serves as the Georgia GOP’s first vice chair. “This is about transparency,” she added. STORY 3: Bittersweet: Candymakers navigate tariff, supply chain challenges during holiday season   For Jocelyn Dubuke, owner of Jardi Chocolates, 2025 has been a rollercoaster. Tariffs, supply chain chaos, rising costs—it’s enough to make anyone panic. And yet, back in January, she made a bold move: she spent every penny of last year’s revenue stockpiling chocolate. “I told my distributors, ‘Whatever you’ve got in the States, I’ll take it,’” she said. “I wasn’t about to tell my customers halfway through the year, ‘Oh, by the way, your chocolate’s double the price now.’” Chocolate’s tricky—rules you can’t break, ingredients you can’t grow here. But for Dubuke, it’s personal. We have opportunities for sponsors to get great engagement on these shows. Call 770.799.6810 for more info.  We’ll be right back. Break: INGLES 10 STORY 4: Georgia DOT suspends lane closures for the holidays  With the holidays happening, the Georgia Department of Transportation is hitting pause on lane closures—at least on interstates, major routes, and roads near shopping hubs. From Dec. 23 at 6 a.m. to Dec. 28 at 10 p.m., and again from Dec. 31 at 5 a.m. to Jan. 2 at 5 a.m., you’ll get a break from the usual construction chaos. But don’t get too comfortable—crews might still be working nearby, and emergency closures? Yeah, those can still happen. Stay sharp, watch for signs, and if you’re curious about road updates, check out GDOT’s website or the 511GA app. STORY 5: Walton claims first county title in nearly two decades Walton’s boys wrestling team finally broke through, snagging their first Cobb County title in nearly 20 years Saturday at Harrison High. And they did it in style—five wrestlers in the finals, five gold medals. Coach Dylan Turner couldn’t stop smiling. “We’ve got everyone back from last year, and it took every single one of them to pull this off,” he said. “They’re just gamers.” The standout? Brandon Whiteford. An eighth seed at 165 pounds, he shocked the top seed with a pin in his opener, then clinched the title with a gritty 6-3 win in the final. “I love the pressure,” he said. FALCONS: Bijan Robinson was electric, C.J. Henderson clutch, and the Falcons? They held on—barely. Atlanta edged Arizona 26-19 on Sunday, thanks to Henderson’s diving interception with 90 seconds left, slamming the door on the Cardinals’ final drive. Robinson? Unreal. 171 total yards, a touchdown grab, and a spot in Falcons history—just the third player to hit 2,000 scrimmage yards in a season. Not bad company: Jamal Anderson, William Andrews. Arizona? Another heartbreak. Seven straight losses, 12 of their last 13. Brissett’s 203 yards weren’t enough, and a wild Michael Wilson TD catch wasn’t either. Atlanta’s still alive. Barely. I'm Keith Ippolito and that’s your MDJ Sports Minute. And now here is Leah McGrath from Ingles Markets on holiday foods We’ll have closing comments after this.

Happy holidays! The Star's Justin Spears and Michael Lev are joined by Jordan Hamm to preview the Arizona Wildcats taking on the SMU Mustangs in the Holiday Bowl; plus, a look at other Big 12 bowl games. The guys answer your mailbag questions, discuss the latest news with UA football and look back on a memorable year in Arizona sports in 2025.

This week on the Free Outside Podcast, I am joined by Jeff Eklund, an “ordinary Jeff” calling in from North Carolina who quickly proves he is anything but ordinary. We kick things off with a Jeff quiz show where every answer is a different Jeff, and it immediately derails into the best kind of chaos.Jeff shares his winding path into running, including randomly ripping a 3:16 at Chicago in his 40s, qualifying for Boston (and skipping it because life happened), then stepping away before coming back strong after knee replacements. He talks about what it felt like to start running again, why he refuses to accept “don't run” as a life sentence, and his current mission to break two hours in the half marathon while stalking the competition on Strava like a proper veteran.Then we shift into the second life arc, Jeff and his wife selling basically everything during COVID, moving into a 27-foot Airstream, and traveling to 47 states. We talk minimalism, Facebook Marketplace hustle, getting “pulled around” the country by life, and the underrated places that surprised him most, from Rhode Island to Arizona to the hidden gems of Nebraska.Somewhere in the middle, Jeff goes full historian and takes us deep into his obsession with Theodore Roosevelt (the strenuous life, Rough Riders lore, the teddy bear origin story, and meeting a TR impersonator in North Dakota that turns into a legit hike). We also get a side quest on Fred Harvey restaurants, Harvey Girls, and old-school American road culture, plus a list of roadside oddities that feels like a hallucination timeline from mile 20 of a marathon.We wrap with a quick masterclass in sales (relationships, listening, and handling rejection), lessons Jeff wishes he knew when he was younger, and a perfect cherry on top story about Brooks customer service, a surprise signed Scott Jurek book, and the greatest accidental Instagram mix-up of all time.If you like running, reinvention, road trips, American history tangents, and a guest who can turn one question into six stories, this one is for you.Chapters00:00 The Jeff Quiz Show Begins04:52 Jeff Eklund's Journey into Running07:49 Overcoming Challenges and Finding Motivation10:50 The Impact of Family on Running13:45 Rediscovering the Love for Running16:42 Transitioning to Life in an Airstream19:28 Selling Everything and Embracing Minimalism22:23 Exploring the Open Road and Human Connection24:56 Theodore Roosevelt: A Personal Connection26:29 Meeting the Impersonator: A Unique Encounter28:47 The Legacy of Theodore Roosevelt30:23 The Teddy Bear Origin Story31:40 The Strenuous Life Philosophy33:40 Fred Harvey and the Railroad Era37:24 The Harvey Girls: Pioneers of the West39:07 Underrated States: Personal Reflections41:34 Hidden Gems in the Midwest45:20 Exploring Unique Destinations48:13 The Art of Selling50:29 Reflections on Youth and Education55:10 Customer Service and Personal Connections01:00:18 Celebrating Ordinary HeroesSubscribe to Substack: http://freeoutside.substack.comSupport this content on patreon: HTTP://patreon.com/freeoutsideBuy my book "Free Outside" on Amazon: https://amzn.to/39LpoSFEmail me to buy a signed copy of my book, "Free Outside" at jeff@freeoutside.comWatch the movie about setting the record on the Colorado Trail: https://tubitv.com/movies/100019916/free-outsideWebsite: www.Freeoutside.comInstagram: thefreeoutsidefacebook: www.facebook.com/freeoutside

Lee Hacksaw Hamilton shares his “Hacksaw History” highlighting his career from Long Island to Ohio University, upstate New York, Cleveland, Phoenix and San Diego. We discussed Lee's early days doing play-by-play in minor league hockey, minor league baseball, and as a TV journalist. Then it was on to Cleveland to broadcast big time WHL pro hockey, a competitor with the NHL at that time. Then on to Phoenix KTAR where he lit the Valley of Sun on fire. In the late 1980s, San Diego called and invited Lee to be the play-by-play voice of the San Diego Chargers and also to host a sports talk show on XTRA 690. That sports talk show was the very beginning of an innovative all sports talk radio station that featured many names including Jim Rome, Steve Hartman, Chet Forte, Coach John Kentera, Billy Ray Smith, Scott Kaplan, Philly Billy Werndl, Jim Laslavic, Pat Curran and many more. This episode was originally aired as part of the John Riley Project on July 20, 2022. The History of Sports Talk Radio Lee shared his Long Island roots and the start of his radio news/DJ career in his college days on a radio station in Appalachia.  After a great run broadcasting pro hockey in Cleveland, he took his talents to the desert to announce Arizona State football and basketball. Hacksaw also hosted a sports talk show on KTAR in Phoenix shocking the locals with critical comments of ASU's football suspension, the Suns getting blown out in the first round of the 1981 NBA playoffs, and the ineptitude of Bowie Kuhn during the 1981 MLB strike. This was the start of the “Best 15 Minutes in Radio.” This was the start of “Putting Topics on the Table.”  “React!”  Lee was determined to grab his listeners by the throat and hold them for 4 hours of compelling sports talk radio. Hacksaw's reputation in Arizona led to a 1986 phone call from the Noble Broadcast Group in San Diego to be the San Diego Chargers play by play guy and start a sports talk show on the Mighty 690.  At the time the station was broadcasting rock n roll and Wolfman Jack. Little did they know that things were going to radically change in the next few years. Lee was the only sports guy in the entire station, and he started with a blank slate.  How in the hell was he going to pull this off? He started by creating a 9-hour NFL Sunday broadcast with a 2-hour Countdown to Kickoff pre-game show, the live game, and then a post-game show with caller participation.   The Mighty 690 Sports Talk Radio Meanwhile, every afternoon drivetime Hacksaw hosted his talk radio show using many of his provocative techniques to drive listenership. Lee was a sensation bringing sports facts, stats, and opinions in the late 1980s. He was the internet before the internet was a thing. After a brief transition to sports and news talk, the station went 100% sports starting in 1989. The Mighty 690 was the 3rd radio station in America to go all sports, and the first on the west coast. 690 had a “blowtorch signal” that carried Lee's show from “Baja to the Canadian Rockies” As 690 went all sports, many new voices took the microphone to create a wide variety of opinions and styles on sports talk: Jim Rome came on board to start his Scrub Saturday show. He later got the night shift right after Hacksaw's show, working on developing his style, his smack, and his clones. Rome later went on to national fame, but did you know Hacksaw was first offered the national gig prior to Rome but he turned it down. Steve Hartman joins the station and with Lee's recommendation he was paired up with former Monday Night Football producer Chet Forte.  Two loudmouth guys: one young, one old, one west coast, one east coast.  It was perfect. Steve Mason and John Ireland took on the morning show and later saw their careers take them to new places. Scott Kaplan and Billy Ray Smith joined the station creating a strong show and a loyal listening audience of Great Friends. The Coach John Kentera joins the station sharing his wealth of knowledge of local high school sports, plus offering his commentary on the San Diego pro and collegiate sports teams.   San Diego Chargers: I root for Herbert to Win, but Spanos to Lose As a long time voice of the San Diego Chargers play-by-play, and as an NFL junkie, Hacksaw was right at home broadcasting the Chargers every Sunday. We retrace some of the magical moments of the Chargers Super Bowl season including stories about Bobby Ross, Stan Humphries, Stan Brock, Tony Martin, Dennis Gibson, and the playoff run against the Dolphins in Steelers. We reminisce about the good vibes as both the team and the community both came together in a very special way. After the 1997 season The Mighty 690 lost its broadcast rights to the team, breaking promises made to the station and to Lee personally to stay on as the play-by-play guy.  Hacksaw was very disappointed with the decision, but he bounced back and was the play-by-play guy for the Seattle Seahawks for 3 seasons. So, how does Hacksaw feel about the Chargers now? He says he wants the kid quarterback Justin Herbert to go 17-0 and the owner Dean Spanos to go 0-17.   San Diego State Aztecs and the PAC-12 In the podcast episode we get into the new Snapdragon Stadium, Lee's disappointment that the Soccer City proposal did not win thus guaranteeing an NFL stadium option, and the possibilities of the Aztecs joining the PAC-12.   Could this be the start of a new podcast platform for Lee Hacksaw Hamilton?  “Agree or disagree?”  “I want to talk sports with you!”   #Hacksaw #LeeHamilton #Mighty690 #Chargers #sportsmedia #sportstalk #xtra690 #jimrome #chetforte #scottkaplan #billyraysmith #billwerndl #stevehartman #johnkentera #johnlynch   Be sure to share this episode with a friend! ☆☆ STAY CONNECTED ☆☆ For more of Hacksaw's Headlines, The Best 15 Minutes, One Man's Opinion, and Hacksaw's Pro Football Notebook: http://www.leehacksawhamilton.com/ SUBSCRIBE on YouTube for more reactions, upcoming shows and more! ► https://www.youtube.com/c/leehacksawhamiltonsports FACEBOOK ➡ https://www.facebook.com/leehacksaw.hamilton.9 TWITTER ➡ https://twitter.com/hacksaw1090 TIKTOK ➡ https://www.tiktok.com/@leehacksawhamilton INSTAGRAM ➡ https://www.instagram.com/leehacksawhamiltonsports/ To get the latest news and information about sports, join Hacksaw's Insider's Group.

CTL Script/ Top Stories of December 26th Publish Date: December 26th   Pre-Roll: From the Ingles Studio Welcome to the Award-Winning Cherokee Tribune Ledger Podcast  Today is Friday, December 26th and Happy Birthday to Lars Ulrich I’m Chris Culwell and here are the stories Cherokee is talking about, presented by Times Journal Cherokee High School student places in statewide art contest Salleigh Grubbs appointed to State Election Board Georgia DOT suspends lane closures for the holidays Plus, Leah McGrath from Ingles Markets on holiday foods We’ll have all this and more coming up on the Cherokee Tribune-Ledger Podcast, and if you’re looking for Community news, we encourage you to listen and subscribe!  Commercial: INGLES 8 STORY 1: Cherokee High School student places in statewide art contest Cherokee High senior Grace Dai just snagged second place in the Georgia State Parks and Historic Sites Art Contest, and her piece, “The Fall of the House of Chief Vann,” is heading to the Georgia State Capitol for the 2026 legislative session. Pretty cool, right? Dai’s no stranger to recognition—she’s been in the Governor’s Honors Program for Visual Arts, featured in the Atlanta High School Art Exhibit, and, oh yeah, she’s also a National Merit Scholarship Semifinalist. Her art teacher, Morgan Clifton, must be beaming. Grace? She’s clearly on a roll, and it doesn’t look like she’s slowing down anytime soon. STORY 2: Salleigh Grubbs appointed to State Election Board Salleigh Grubbs, former Cobb GOP Chair, is stepping into a new role on the State Election Board. Lt. Gov. Burt Jones appointed her to fill the seat left by Rick Jeffares, who stepped down last week. It’s a “recess appointment,” Grubbs explained, and she’s diving in right away. “I’m honored, humbled—really, all of it,” she said. “Fair elections have been my focus for years, and I’m ready to get to work.” A Marietta native, Grubbs led the Cobb GOP until earlier this year and now serves as the Georgia GOP’s first vice chair. “This is about transparency,” she added. STORY 3: Georgia DOT suspends lane closures for the holidays  With the holidays here, the Georgia DOT is giving drivers a little gift: no lane closures on interstates, major routes, or roads near shopping hotspots. From Dec. 23 at 6 a.m. to Dec. 28 at 10 p.m., and again from Dec. 31 at 5 a.m. to Jan. 2 at 5 a.m., you’ll get a break from the cones. But don’t get too comfy—crews might still be working nearby, and emergencies? Yeah, those closures can still happen. Stay sharp, watch for signs, and check the 511GA app for updates. Safe travels, y’all. We have opportunities for sponsors to get great engagement on these shows. Call 770.874.3200 for more info.    We’ll be right back. Break: INGLES 9 STORY 4: High-Scoring Georgia Men's Basketball Continues Non-Conference Roll With SEC play looming, Georgia’s men’s basketball team has plenty to feel good about. Monday night, they steamrolled West Georgia 103-74, improving to 11-1 and keeping their spotless 35-0 home non-conference record under coach Mike White intact. Blue Cain and Jeremiah Wilkinson were on fire, combining for 39 points. Cain dropped 20 on 9-of-13 shooting, adding four assists and three steals. “They told me about the 100-point record after the game,” Cain said. “It’s cool, but we’re just focused on playing the right way.” Somto Cyril? A beast. Fifteen points, 15 boards, four blocks. SEC, here they come. FALCONS: Bijan Robinson was electric, C.J. Henderson clutch, and the Falcons? They held on—barely. Atlanta edged Arizona 26-19 on Sunday, thanks to Henderson’s diving interception with 90 seconds left, slamming the door on the Cardinals’ final drive. Robinson? Unreal. 171 total yards, a touchdown grab, and a spot in Falcons history—just the third player to hit 2,000 scrimmage yards in a season. Not bad company: Jamal Anderson, William Andrews. Arizona? Another heartbreak. Seven straight losses, 12 of their last 13. Brissett’s 203 yards weren’t enough, and a wild Michael Wilson TD catch wasn’t either. Atlanta’s still alive. Barely. I’m Keith Ippolito and this is your tribune ledger sports minute. STORY 5: Incoming Mayor Dennis Nelson shares goals for Ball Ground  Dennis Nelson has big plans for Ball Ground. The incoming mayor, set to be sworn in Jan. 15, wants to turn Ball Ground Highway into a bustling commercial corridor and add a new park—maybe even the city’s first dog park. “Right now, it’s just an empty stretch,” he said. “People want to stay local, not drive miles for dinner or shopping.” Nelson’s also focused on the truck bypass project, aiming to keep heavy traffic out of downtown. “Everyone’s tired of the trucks,” he said. A Ball Ground resident since 2018, Nelson’s roots run deep—his great-great-grandfather helped settle the nearby city of Nelson. And now here is Leah McGrath from Ingles Markets on holiday foods Commercial: We’ll have closing comments after this.   COMMERCIAL: INGLES 10   SIGN OFF –   Thanks again for hanging out with us on today’s Cherokee Tribune Ledger Podcast.

The Cincinnati Bengals (5-10) host the Arizona Cardinals (3-12) this Sunday, December 28, 2025, at Paycor Stadium in Cincinnati for a 1:00 p.m. ET kickoff on FOX. Both teams are eliminated from playoff contention in disappointing 2025 seasons, turning this late-season matchup into a battle for pride, momentum heading into the offseason, and potentially better draft positioning. The Bengals enter on a high note after exploding for 45 points in a dominant Week 16 win over the Miami Dolphins. Joe Burrow looked sharp in his return from injury, throwing for over 300 yards with multiple touchdowns, while Ja'Marr Chase and the offense clicked efficiently. Chase Brown added a strong rushing performance, and the unit showed flashes of the explosiveness that has defined Cincinnati in recent years. However, the defense remains a major concern, ranking near the bottom of the league in points allowed (30.5 per game) and struggling against the pass and tight ends. Arizona, meanwhile, is mired in a seven-game losing streak, most recently falling 26-19 to the Atlanta Falcons. With Kyler Murray sidelined for the season due to injury, Jacoby Brissett has been under center, leading an inconsistent offense that relies heavily on tight end Trey McBride (over 1,000 yards and double-digit touchdowns). The Cardinals' run game has been decimated by injuries to backs like James Conner and Trey Benson, leaving Michael Carter as the primary option. Defensively, Arizona has been porous, allowing 30+ points in several recent games, though they can keep things close against vulnerable units. Bengals are favored by about 7 points, with a high over/under around 53.5, reflecting expectations of a potential shootout given both teams' defensive woes and offensive talent. Burrow's presence gives Cincinnati a clear edge at quarterback, and home-field advantage in cold December weather could trouble the dome-accustomed Cardinals. Key storylines include Burrow continuing to build momentum post-injury, McBride's dominance against a Bengals defense weak vs. tight ends, and whether Arizona can snap their skid against a team with more natural talent. Experts largely side with Cincinnati, but the Cardinals' ability to move the ball through the air could keep it competitive. In a "meaningless" game for standings, look for fireworks and individual performances to shine. Bengals are poised to win, likely covering in a high-scoring affair.

Munaf Manji and SleepyJ talk NFL Week 17 player props. The NFL regular season is winding down, and Week 17 presents a complex betting landscape shaped by playoff positioning, player motivation, and late season incentives. On the latest episode of RJ Bell's Dream Preview, Munaf Manji and SleepyJ broke down how those factors are influencing player prop markets across the board, with an emphasis on discipline and game script rather than chasing inflated narratives. They noted that with many playoff seeds already decided, sportsbooks and bettors alike are gravitating toward incentive driven props, which can cause numbers to move quickly and lose value. As a result, both stressed the importance of identifying matchups where motivation and opportunity align naturally rather than forcing plays based on headlines. One early focus was quarterback props, starting with Geno Smith under his passing yardage total against the Giants. SleepyJ argued that Las Vegas has little incentive to open up the offense, especially with Brock Bowers sidelined and Smith dealing with lingering injuries. A conservative, run heavy approach or even an early exit for Smith made the under appealing. Manji agreed, adding that the Raiders' broader organizational incentives point toward limiting risk at quarterback. On the other side of the spectrum, Trevor Lawrence was highlighted as a strong over candidate against Indianapolis. The Colts' secondary has struggled badly in recent weeks, and with the AFC South still at stake, Lawrence is expected to shoulder the offensive load again, making his passing yardage line attractive. In the running back market, SleepyJ took a contrarian stance with Chuba Hubbard under his combined rushing and receiving total, citing likely negative game script and a shifting backfield rotation that favors Rico Dowdle in passing situations. Manji countered with Chase Brown over his rushing yards against Arizona, pointing to a Cardinals defense that has consistently allowed explosive ground production and a Bengals offense capable of playing from ahead. Wide receiver props followed a similar pattern of value hunting. Romeo Doubs was identified as an over play due to his low yardage number and his established role as a downfield threat in Green Bay's offense. Manji expanded on the incentive angle with Stefon Diggs, who is chasing significant contract bonuses tied to receptions and yardage. Against a depleted Jets secondary, Diggs' receiving yardage over was framed as both situationally and statistically sound. At tight end, SleepyJ continued his season long strategy of targeting Indianapolis with opposing tight ends, backing Brenton Strange over his reception total as a reliable option for Lawrence. Manji stayed in a high total environment with Trey McBride over his receiving yards against Cincinnati, citing the Bengals' ongoing struggles defending the position and McBride's strong road splits. The episode's featured best bet centered on Saquon Barkley over his rushing yardage against Buffalo. Both hosts emphasized the Bills' vulnerability against the run and Philadelphia's recent commitment to feeding Barkley, making the over a straightforward play despite a marquee matchup. Together, the discussion reinforced a clear theme for Week 17, focus on matchup driven edges and realistic game flow rather than crowded incentive narratives, a disciplined approach as the regular season reaches its final stretch.

In 2005, Phoenix, Arizona was gripped by fear as two shooters roamed the city at night, firing at anyone they came across. Cyclists, pedestrians, people sitting in cars, even animals were targeted. There was no pattern, no warning, and no way to predict who would be next. The killers gave their spree a chilling name. Random Recreational Violence.As weeks turned into months, panic spread across neighborhoods. Police chased thousands of tips with little progress. The shooters seemed to vanish into the night after every attack, leaving investigators scrambling and residents afraid to leave their homes after dark.The case finally cracked when one of the men made a drunken confession at a dive bar. That slip led police to Dale Hausner and Samuel Dieteman, two men who treated murder like a game. Recorded conversations revealed casual planning, dark jokes about their victims, and complaints about not getting enough recognition for their crimes.At trial, the full scale of the horror became clear. Dieteman admitted to his role in the attacks and multiple murders. Hausner was convicted of six killings and sentenced to death. Phoenix's year of terror finally ended, but not before dozens of lives were shattered forever.This is the story of how randomness itself became the weapon.

Independent investigative journalism, broadcasting, trouble-making and muckraking with Brad Friedman of BradBlog.com

Stijn Schmitz welcomes Brett Rentmeester to the show. Brett is the Founder of WindRock Wealth Management. Their conversation centers on the current economic landscape, highlighting critical challenges facing the global financial system, particularly the United States. Rentmeester argues that the economy has fundamentally changed since the mid-1970s, when the dollar decoupled from gold. Since then, the economic system has relied increasingly on debt and money printing, creating an unsustainable financial structure. He points to several systemic issues, including declining real wages, skyrocketing costs in healthcare and education, and massive government debt that is increasingly difficult to service. Stijn explores potential scenarios for economic transformation, presenting two primary paths: proactive systemic change or a potential catastrophic reset. Brett suggests we are in a “fourth turning” moment—a generational shift where existing institutions are losing public trust and facing potential fundamental restructuring. A key theme is the potential return to “sound money,” potentially through tokenized gold, cryptocurrency, or a new monetary system backed by hard assets. Brett believes there’s a significant likelihood of monetary reimagination within the next five to ten years, driven by increasing public dissatisfaction with current economic structures. For individual investors, he recommends a diversified approach: maintaining investments in traditional assets while also acquiring hard assets like gold, silver, and real estate. The strategy involves having “one foot in the existing system and one foot out,” preparing for potential significant economic disruption. Regarding potential global conflict, Rentmeester hopes for a collaborative reset rather than a destructive war cycle, emphasizing the importance of proactive monetary reform. His overall message is one of cautious preparation, understanding that while the current system faces significant challenges, there are potential pathways to a more stable economic future.

Ep. 748 - When Kurt Warner arrived in Arizona in 2005, he was determined to revive his career and recapture the success he once enjoyed with the St. Louis Rams. A two-time MVP and Super Bowl champion, Warner faced the challenge of proving himself all over again. Defying the odds, he won the starting job, silenced his critics, and ultimately led the Cardinals to their first-ever Super Bowl appearance. Paul Calvisi and Ron Wolfley examine the highs and lows of Warner's time in Arizona, an improbable chapter that cemented his legacy in the Pro Football Hall of Fame.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Top Stories for December 25th Publish Date: December 25th PRE-ROLL: SUGAR HILL ICE SKATING From the BG AD Group Studio Welcome to the Gwinnett Daily Post Podcast. Today is Thursday, December 25th and Happy birthday to Jimmy Buffett I’m Peyton Spurlock and here are your top stories presented by KIA Mall of Georgia. Duluth named Georgia's most Hallmark movie-like city Solicitor's Office donates 5K proceeds to help domestic violence victims Salleigh Grubbs appointed to State Election Board Plus, Leah McGrath from Ingles Markets on holiday foods All of this and more is coming up on the Gwinnett Daily Post podcast, and if you are looking for community news, we encourage you to listen daily and subscribe! Break 1: GCPS Hiring STORY 1: Duluth named Georgia's most Hallmark movie-like city If you’re dreaming of a Hallmark-style Christmas, Gwinnett County’s got you covered—no need to pack your bags. According to The Action Network, three Gwinnett cities made Georgia’s top five most Hallmark-like towns, with Duluth taking the crown as number one. Why Duluth? Think walkable streets, a buzzing town green, and a community that actually shows up—for festivals, concerts, and all the holiday feels. “It’s less about historic landmarks and more about people-driven traditions,” they said. Lawrenceville and Suwanee also made the list, proving Gwinnett’s got that small-town magic—minus the guaranteed snow or last-minute romantic plot twists. STORY 2: Solicitor's Office donates 5K proceeds to help domestic violence victims Three local groups that support domestic violence survivors got a little holiday cheer last week, courtesy of the Gwinnett County Solicitor’s Office. Solicitor General LisaMarie Bristol handed out checks to Mosaic Georgia, the Partnership Against Domestic Violence, and Ahimsa House during a ceremony at the Gwinnett Justice and Administration Center. The $12,080 came from the office’s third annual Dash 4 Domestic Violence 5K. “This is about more than money—it’s about action,” the office said. The event drew 170 runners, 65 volunteers, and 33 sponsors, raising over $12K to help survivors and their families across Gwinnett. STORY 3: Salleigh Grubbs appointed to State Election Board Former Cobb GOP Chair Salleigh Grubbs has been tapped for the State Election Board, the Georgia Republican Party announced Monday. Lt. Gov. Burt Jones made the appointment, filling the seat left vacant by Rick Jeffares. Grubbs called it a “recess appointment” and said she’s ready to get to work immediately. “Salleigh’s leadership and commitment to election integrity are unmatched,” said Georgia GOP Chair Josh McKoon.

We’ll be right back Break 2: Kia Mall of Georgia - DTL HOLIDAY STORY 4: Bittersweet: Candymakers navigate tariff, supply chain challenges during holiday season For Jocelyn Dubuke, owner of Jardi Chocolates, 2025 was a gamble. Faced with rising tariffs and supply chain chaos, she spent every dollar of last year’s revenue to stockpile chocolate. Why? To keep her customers from feeling the pinch. “Come January, I told my distributors, ‘Whatever chocolate you’ve got in the States, I want it,’” she said. “I wasn’t about to tell my customers halfway through the year, ‘Oh, by the way, your price just doubled.’” Chocolate’s tricky—rules you can bend, but not break. And with cacao only grown overseas, tariffs hit hard. STORY 5: Brookwood Tops Archer for First Deep South Classic Title in 10 Years Masai Knight spent most of the game dishing out assists—nine of them, to be exact—but his biggest play came when it mattered most. With Brookwood clinging to a four-point lead in the final minute of the Deep South Classic championship, Knight threaded a perfect pass to Grant Dehnke, who scored inside to stretch the lead to six. A defensive stop, a couple of free throws, and that was it—Brookwood sealed a 61-52 win, their first tournament title in a decade. FALCONS: Bijan Robinson was electric, C.J. Henderson clutch, and the Falcons? They held on—barely. Atlanta edged Arizona 26-19 on Sunday, thanks to Henderson’s diving interception with 90 seconds left, slamming the door on the Cardinals’ final drive. Robinson? Unreal. 171 total yards, a touchdown grab, and a spot in Falcons history—just the third player to hit 2,000 scrimmage yards in a season. Not bad company: Jamal Anderson, William Andrews. Arizona? Another heartbreak. Seven straight losses, 12 of their last 13. Brissett’s 203 yards weren’t enough, and a wild Michael Wilson TD catch wasn’t either. Atlanta’s still alive. Barely.

In this powerful episode of Real Native Roots: Untold Stories, Vickie welcomes her longtime sister and truth-teller Dar “Diamond D” for a wide-ranging, deeply human conversation about identity, land, governance, media, healing, and courage. Dar is Mohawk, a border-tribe woman raised between matriarchs, ironworkers, longhouses, cities, and ceremony. Her life story moves from the St. Lawrence River to Los Angeles, Arizona, and finally Alaska, where land, water, and community helped her gather the many threads of her life into clarity. Together, Vickie and Dar explore what it means to grow into your name, to survive trauma without losing humor, to tell Indigenous truth even when it's dangerous, and to reclaim traditional governance rooted in consensus rather than colonial crumbs. Dar shares stories from investigative journalism, surviving a death threat, working in MMIP and victim services, running Native media spaces, mentoring youth, and holding community with both sharp honesty and deep love. This episode is about remembering who we are, refusing fear, lifting one another instead of pulling each other down, and returning to the waters that once gathered us. #RealNativeRoots #IndigenousVoices #NativeStorytelling #IndigenousTruth #DecolonizeEverything #IndigenousWisdom #NativePodcast #StoryAsMedicine #RealNativeRootsPodcast

Does ESPN's Basketball Power Index actually believe in the West Virginia Mountaineers this season? Today, we are breaking down the latest ESPN BPI rankings and what they mean for WVU men's basketball as we head deeper into the 2025-26 season. From jaw-dropping win probabilities to a projected 20-11 finish, the analytics are painting a wild picture for the first year under Head Coach Ross Hodge. We look at the toughest games remaining on the schedule, including massive matchups against Kansas, Houston, and Arizona. In this video, we cover:

On Joe Oltmann Untamed today, Joe unleashes fury on the endless parade of corruption and distraction crumbs. He slams the Katie Hobbs scandal exploding to DEFCON-1 in Arizona, exposes Matt Gaetz's explosive revelations of the deep rot that drove him out of Congress, and demands to know why we are still just getting crumbs. From Minnesota's deadly Medicaid fraud killing citizens to Lindsey Graham allegedly laundering Ukraine war funds, Joe exposes the Uniparty's greed while Americans suffer and die.Powerhouse guest David Clements, former law professor, seasoned prosecutor, and fearless host of The Professor's Record, joins Joe to break down the urgent need to free Tina Peters. As a leading voice exposing election fraud and J6 injustices, David lays out how President Trump can use executive authority to override Colorado's defiance of the pardon, drawing on historical precedents of presidents liberating Americans from rogue state captivity. This is a high-stakes call for justice and a roadmap to dismantle the weaponized system silencing whistleblowers.The show closes with a brutal wake-up call: the Uniparty's real, the swamp is thriving, and distractions like Denver's giant see-saws mock our suffering. Joe declares enough is enough it's time to clean house, hold traitors accountable, and reclaim America before the rot consumes us all. This is Joe Oltmann Untamed: righteous anger, undeniable truth, and the battle cry to fight back. Tune in, wake up, and join the untamed resistance today!

The State argues the district court correctly allowed evidence related to the murder of Charles Vallow and the attempted killing of Brandon Boudreaux, not to show criminal propensity, but to establish a pattern, plan, knowledge, and financial motive that closely mirrors the crimes involving JJ Vallow, Tylee Ryan, and Tammy Daybell. Prosecutors emphasize the defense had long-standing access to this evidence, defeating claims of unfair surprise or prejudice.The episode then breaks down Vallow's speedy trial argument using the Barker v. Wingo balancing test. While the length of delay slightly favors Vallow, the State explains that most of the delay was caused by the defense, including multiple competency proceedings and a change of venue. Vallow also failed to show any actual prejudice to her defense.Ultimately, the State asks the appellate court to affirm Lori Vallow Daybell's conviction, arguing that none of the claims raised on appeal warrant reversal. Appeals in Arizona are still expected, meaning the legal process is far from over.ALL MERCH 10% off with code Sherlock10 at checkout  - NEW STYLES Donate: (Thank you for your support!

Democrats are trying to deflect from their corruption. Mark Kelly, Arizona's fraudulent senator suddenly found millions of dollars. Was he not looking during the Biden years? And what of Minnesota's crooked attorney general, Keith Ellison who has been implicated in kickback schemes with the Somalis? He's not helping public safety through hysterical means. And there are many more examples we discuss in this episode.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.
