Boerne little league headed to world series, Hasan Piker and El Sayed radicals on another level, bad behavior in sports, and our weekly visit with Breitbart's John Hayward

"Jack Riccardi talks Boerne and LLWS, socialist kids, trump's AF1 maneuver, the Paxton campaign, gamers as air traffic controllers and 162 year old Guinness."

Flooding from the recent severe thunderstorms didn't only bring concerns about evacuation along Cibolo Creek. As the creek swelled with the heavy rainfall and overflowed its banks July 15 in areas such as Boerne and Schertz, another concern arose: The flooding caused damage to the wastewater pumps in Fair Oaks Ranch near Boerne. This triggered a spill of 75,000 gallons of wastewater into Cibolo Creek. That amount of spillage could adversely affect the creek's health, along with raising health concerns for marine life, soil, and communities downstream of the spill, including New Berlin, La Vernia, Sutherland Springs, Stockdale, Falls City,...

Brian Gilroy runs Wildlife Partners, the largest exotic animal breeding operation in North America and a Cape buffalo herd that didn't exist in private hands a decade ago. He's also hunted Dall sheep in remote Alaska, muskox on Nunivak Island, and elk in New Mexico. This episode is a reality check on how the hunting industry actually works and why the free-range vs. high-fence moral war is mostly mythology from Brian's perspective.Texas is now on South Africa's radar as a direct competitor. Same animals, same large high-fence model, no 13-hour flight, five-star lodges, and populations of kudu, Cape buffalo, sable, and ibex growing every year. Brian explains the economics of exotic breeding as a tax strategy (why a self-reproducing kudu cow beats a tractor), why CWD has made native cervid breeding almost impossible, why put-and-take hunting is a dead model, and what a Wyoming or New Mexico application really costs over a lifetime. The episode closes with Brian's Alaska sheep story... the outfitter who knew every animal, flew him to the sheep, and pointed him at it. The honest question: why is that different from hunting 15,000 acres in Texas?Texas vs. South Africa — why SA should be genuinely worriedCape buffalo in TexasKudu, sable, red deer: population growth and what hunts will cost in five yearsWhy CWD killed native cervid breeding and exotics filled the gapExotic breeding as a business — 100% depreciation on an animal that reproduces itselfThe real cost of a sheep draw, a BC Dall sheep, or a New Mexico applicationThe Alaska sheep story and why free range is less pure than most hunters believeGuest: Brian Gilroy — CEO, Wildlife Partners.

OA1256 - Will there ever be a draft again? Who knows. But if there is, what does one have to do to claim "conscientious objector” status? During the Vietnam War, the Supreme Court grappled with how to apply that explicitly religious statutory exemption to people whose modern beliefs don't seem to fit the religious mold that Congress defined in the 40s. Jenessa walks us through the court's mental gymnastics to avoid ever admitting that anyone could be an atheist, and the concurrence that calls it out.

Send us a textIt is Week Two of Texas High School football and in Episode 120, Host Taylor Arenz talks to three players whose team had big success in their first time out on the field. First up is Pieper Warriors quarterback Isaiah Gaitan. Isaiah has been making a name for himself for years. At Cornerstone Christian, he threw for over 4,500 career yards and 38 touchdowns, and now he's bringing that talent to Pieper. In his very first game with the Warriors, he accounted for three touchdowns and helped lead his team to a big 35–28 win over Boerne. Taylor and Isaiah talked about how he's built chemistry with his new teammates, and what it means to step onto the field for his senior year. He also shared his advice for younger players, what he's looking forward to this season and more. Then Taylor talked with Prosper senior offensive lineman Zaden Krempin.   Zaden has been big on the recruiting trail and back in June he announced his commitment to Texas A&M after holding more offers than any player in the state, with 53.  Taylor and Zaden talked about what that recruiting process was like, the moment he knew College Station was home, and the advice he has for younger athletes chasing those same opportunities. He also talks about the Eagles big Week One win over Westlake and much more! We wrapped up Episode 120 with La Porte's running back Ashton Ruffin who help lead the Bulldogs to their first win on the opening night in their brand new 56 million dollar stadium. He filled me all in on all the “Border Battle” rivalry game excitement and how after two years of being without a true home field, the community finally got to pack the stands, and Ashton helped deliver a night they'll never forget. He rushed for 194 total yards and scored three touchdowns, including the go-ahead 36-yard run in the fourth quarter that sealed the win. We hear all about it and more in this fun episode that talks all about kicking off the 2025 Season!

Leatherhead, Surrey, England writer Andrew Jackson is a winner in the L. Ron Hubbard Writers of the Future Contest earning him a trip to Hollywood for a week-long master-class workshop, an awards event and his winning story will be published in the international bestselling anthology, L. Ron Hubbard Presents Writers of the Future Volume 41. Andrew Jackson started writing and illustrating since age twelve and never gave up the former but (thankfully for his readers) has stopped the latter! One of his earliest memories is of watching Star Trek with his dad and falling in love with the speeding ships, bizarre aliens, and the diamond glitter of myriad stars in that eternal blackness. Even now, as he explores the strange new worlds of family, fatherhood, and a career in retail, he's never lost his love for the stars. Counting authors such as Stephen King, Iain M. Banks, and Alastair Reynolds amongst his literary influences, he revels both in reading and writing rich, tangible worlds other than our own. Born too late to watch the Apollo missions but too early for interstellar travel he must content himself with dreams and the sad knowledge that he may never know what's out there. Is there anybody out there? Why aren't they talking? Budapest, Hungary artist Ms. Marianna Mester is a winner in the L. Ron Hubbard Illustrators of the Future Contest earning her a trip to Hollywood for a week-long master-class workshop, an awards event and her winning art will be published in the international bestselling anthology, L. Ron Hubbard Presents Writers of the Future Volume 41. Marianna Mester was born in Hungary and spent her childhood in a small village. From a young age, she was drawn to painting and admired those who could create works of art. Growing up, she didn't have much time to pursue it, but ten years ago, she made a decision to take her painting to a high level and began studying various artistic styles. She practiced relentlessly, experimenting with countless techniques, and now she's able to paint in about nine different styles. Everything Marianna knows, she learned on her own without attending any formal art school, so she's especially proud that people appreciate my work. Her parents started calling her “Manna” and now that has become her artist name with even her friends calling by that name as well. Her goal is to bring beauty into as many lives as possible because, for her, painting is not just art, it's life itself, a true expression of freedom. Savannah, Georgia student Ms. Jordan Smajstrla is a winner in the L. Ron Hubbard Illustrators of the Future Contest earning her a trip to Hollywood for a week-long master-class workshop, an awards event and her winning art will be published in the international bestselling anthology, L. Ron Hubbard Presents Writers of the Future Volume 41. Jordan is originally from Boerne, Texas and is currently studying at the Savannah College of Art and Design. Jordan Smajstrla was born in 2003 in Houston, Texas, and has been drawing for as long as she can remember thanks to the encouragement of her parents. She attributes her admiration of fantasy art in particular to her childhood interests, which included reading any book she could get her hands on,
