What does it really take to zero out a wild horse herd? In this episode, I take you behind the scenes of the Adobe Town roundup, where the BLM captured far more wild horses than they should have, pushing this herd dangerously close to being wiped out. Though their target was met, the process that led to this moment was far from transparent or humane. I spent five days observing the roundup, witnessing heartbreaking moments. While the roundup is now over, the real damage is done. The BLM has not confirmed whether they will conduct a post-roundup count, and with horses being sent to facilities where public access is restricted, the fate of these horses remains uncertain. The future of these wild horses hangs in the balance, and we have to keep fighting to make sure they are protected. Get full show notes and more information here: https://www.wildhoofbeats.com/57
If you asked me who my top three women's fiction author are, I'd definitely add Amanda Cox--probably at the top. Definitely at the top if I've read one of her books in the past month or so. Listen in and see why The Bitter End Birding Society could be my favorite... again (they're always my favorite). note: links may be affiliate links that provide me with a small commission at no extra expense to you. Bitter End, Tennessee--a nowhere place at the top of a mountain. Learn how she found out its history (not easy) and how it got its name (spoiler: she didn't). Mobile Wedding Chapel? She's got it. Moonshine? Get all you can drink in and no hangover!!! (just joking around! Avoid the moonshine in jars on your counter--your gut will thank you). The Bitter End Birding Society by Amanda Cox A forbidden romance, a fractured family, and one woman's journey to piece it all together Hometown hero Ana Leigh Watkins ventures to Bitter End, Tennessee, to help her great-aunt prepare for retirement. A town called Bitter End seems an ironic place for Ana to refresh her weary spirit, but she's desperate for respite from the attention and unwarranted admiration of her community. While on a hike in Roan Mountain, a ragtag group of amateur bird-watchers takes her under their wing--a little against her will. However, she quickly warms to these genuine souls seeking solace in the great outdoors. But when Ana's adventures in Bitter End lead her to a severed branch of her family tree--one that involves the forbidden love between a moonshiner's daughter and a preacher's son--what began as a getaway to help her great-aunt becomes a transformative journey that binds together two women who, though they live on the same street, have been estranged for sixty years. An immersive faith-based novel of finding belonging, reconciliation, and new beginnings for fans of southern fiction. This narrative of friendship and community makes for a perfect book club selection. Don't miss the preorder at 40% off from BakerBookHouse (or the 30% off after release)--both with free shipping!

For example, Andrew plays some clips about President of Argentina Javier Milei and how his libertarian policies have reduced inflation, alleviated poverty, and turned his country around for the better. Andrew also talks about what it takes to be successful, and the importance of putting things into perspective and being intellectually honest about reality. Andrew also talks about immigration, Karl Marx, and Blackrock.

The mustache mafia picks sides in the bitter and messy divorce of Dan and Betty Broderick. Who will the children decide to go with? Their philandering father? Or their obviously crazy mother? My guess is they pick the one that doesn't crash cars into houses. Sounds like Dan dodged a bullet when he split up with Betty, figuratively speaking.

Scott intro is actually a review of an evening built around friends performance at the Bitter End nightclub in New York City. Tom claims Scott's intro is far more eloquent than the best society column, but sadly history may applaud Scott's podcast intro more than the talented singer he praises.

1. Your choices are important 2. Your bad choices have consequences 3. The necessity of the Holy Spirit
Scripture Reading: 2 Samuel 18 When David gave way to his lust for Bathsheba and his pride to cover his act through murder, there were some things he had not considered, namely the long term consequences of sin. Sinning against the living God is a more serious matter than we usually think it is and the dark effects of sin are both sure and destructive. David's sin had terrible effects that he had not considered in the passions of his heart. First, his sin had an effect on God's name. “. . . by this deed you have given occasion to the enemies of the LORD to blaspheme . . .” (2 Sam 12:14). Second, his sin had an effect on others: Bathsheba, Uriah, Amnon, Tamar, Absalom. God told David of these results when He said, “Now therefore, the sword shall never depart from your house, because you have despised Me and have taken the wife of Uriah the Hittite to be your wife” (2 Sam 12:10). Third, David's sin had a long term, destructive effect on himself. In 2 Samuel 18 we see David in utter anguish and sorrow over the death of his son Absalom, 12 years after his sin with Bathsheba. “O my son Absalom, my son, my son Absalom! Would I had died instead of you, O Absalom, my son, my son! . . . And the king covered his face and cried out with a loud voice, "O my son Absalom, O Absalom, my son, my son!" (2 Sam 18:33; 19:4). Let us take to heart the stern warnings in the Bible concerning sin's consequences. “He who sows iniquity will reap vanity” (Prov 22:8). “Do not be deceived, God is not mocked; for whatever a man sows, this he will also reap” (Gal 6:7).
Peter Aguero isn't just a performer—he's a presence. Known for his emotionally charged, wildly entertaining, and deeply human stories, Peter has become one of the most beloved voices in the storytelling world. A longtime host and GrandSLAM champion with The Moth, Peter's work explores grief, rage, love, redemption, and the quiet moments that define who we are. In this episode, we sit down with Peter to trace the creative arc of his life—from growing up in South Jersey and leaving football behind, to traveling the country with Chicago City Limits, and eventually becoming a core figure in The Moth's rise to cultural prominence. Along the way, we explore why storytelling isn't just communication—it's how we make sense of being human. Peter's story intersects with some of the greats, including his longtime friendship with creative musician and experimental educator Dave Gould, who introduced him at a transformative moment in Iowa City. Together, their work reminds us that story is not just scientific—it's deeply experiential. It's memory. It's identity. It's the way we heal, connect, and lead. We also revisit some of Peter's most memorable performances, including: “You're Not Alone” (The Moth Mainstage, Metropolitan Museum of Art) — a heartbreaking and healing story about Christmas with his mother “The Italian Ice Fight” — a wild, true tale about a summer job that ended with a hammer, a fight, and a lesson in fear Daddy Issues (his one-man show) — a raw, theatrical journey through masculinity, shame, and survival Appearances on Conan and in venues like the Bitter End, Highline Ballroom, and under-the-radar NYC gems like Under St. Mark's In this episode, you'll learn: + How vulnerability builds creative credibility + Why your real voice is more powerful than your polished one + How to structure stories that resonate emotionally—without overproducing + What brands and leaders can learn from live storytelling and audience honesty + How to tell stories that invite recognition, not just applause Whether you're leading a brand, creating a presentation, or trying to inspire others—this episode is a reminder that the most unforgettable stories are the ones that don't try too hard. They just tell the truth.

80 years ago, on 8 May 1945, Nazi Germany capitulated, bringing the Second World War in Europe to an end. Although a large part of France was no longer occupied, there were still "pockets" of German resistance in several northern towns. Dunkirk, best known as the site of the remarkable evacuation of British and French troops in the spring of 1940, was one of them. In ruins, the town was liberated the day after the capitulation, the German soldiers having been ordered to hold out until the end.
