Chicago ‘26: three nights, one tornado warning, and a travel itinerary scripted by chaos itself. Night one gets two songs into Talia Hall before everyone — band included — gets herded into the beer cellar for shelter. Night two, the Empty Bottle delivers as the stragglers finally roll in. Night three goes big: massive venue, four massive acts, and Garrett sliding in right as the headliner hits the stage. Gaspar recaps his travel disasters in full Boy Scout rock-uniform glory, and Mike won't stop bragging about his Lincoln balcony seats in the Land of Lincoln.They were, against all odds, determined. Chicago '26 unfolds like a tribute to Planes, Trains and Automobiles—but Unified Scene style.chalk drawing courtesy of::https://www.instagram.com/latenightchalkshowPlease send us a voicemail:https://www.speakpipe.com/TheHoodratRecapPodcastPlease contact us at:https://linktr.ee/thehoodratrecap?utm_source=linktree_profile_share
On the surface, Gerard Baden-Clay and his wife Allison had it all. A successful luxury property business, a beautiful young family, and a prestigious family lineage tracing back to the founder of the Boy Scouts. However, in reality, Gerard had woven a web of lies, affairs, and massive loans, all without his family even knowing. However, when it all started crashing down around him, Gerard decided the easiest way out was to kill his own wife. What followed were only more pathetic lies, appeals, attempts to hide the answer to this question: what happened to Allison Baden-Clay.StitchFix: Take the stress out of shopping with https://stitchfix.com/milehigher for $20 OFF your first order!Mintmobile: Stop overpaying for your wireless bill, go to https://mintmobile.com/MILEHIGHER and start shopping for lower rates today!HungryRoot: A Free item AND 40% OFF?!

X: @RepFine @americasrt1776 @ileaderssummit @NatashaSrdoc @JoelAnandUSA @supertalk @JTitMVirginia Join America's Roundtable radio co-hosts Natasha Srdoc and Joel Anand Samy with U.S. Congressman Randy Fine, member of the House Foreign Relations Committee and the Education and Workforce Committee. He is one of the most effective communicators in Congress in advancing our shared values and principles. A third-generation Floridian, Randy built a career as a successful entrepreneur, founding and running businesses in retail, technology, and hospitality. He has been an active Boy Scout volunteer, serving as both Cubmaster and Assistant Scoutmaster. The son of two public school teachers, Randy graduated magna cum laude from Harvard College with a degree in government and later earned his MBA from Harvard Business School, where he graduated with high distinction as one of the youngest Baker Scholars in decades. Congressman Fine also serves as a member of the Freedom Caucus, Republican Study Committee and the Judea and Samaria Caucus. The conversation will explore practical and principled approaches to reducing the cost of housing and healthcare, as well as the critical importance of election integrity, with a strong majority of Americans supporting voter identification requirements, according to Pew Research. Recent studies cited by the White House suggest a correlation between the deportation of individuals residing in the United States illegally and declining housing costs in several major metropolitan areas. The Trump administration noted that "14 of the top 20 U.S. metro areas with the largest undocumented migrant populations experienced year-over-year declines in home listing prices." The discussion also highlights historical immigration enforcement trends. According to published reports, the administration of President Barack Obama formally removed approximately 3 million noncitizens from the United States during his time in office. The program will also examine growing concerns over Iran's pursuit of nuclear weapons and discuss strategies to prevent the world's leading state sponsor of terrorism from threatening global security and holding the free world hostage. americasrt.com https://ileaderssummit.org/ | https://jerusalemleaderssummit.com/ America's Roundtable on Apple Podcasts: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/americas-roundtable/id1518878472 X: @RepFine @ileaderssummit @americasrt1776 @NatashaSrdoc @JoelAnandUSA @supertalk @JTitMVirginia America's Roundtable is co-hosted by Natasha Srdoc and Joel Anand Samy, co-founders of International Leaders Summit and the Jerusalem Leaders Summit.

Matt and Jordan review Prime Video’s Tom Clancy’s Jack Ryan: Ghost War, a straight-to-streaming title they are branding "movie Toferky." For Rec Seg, the duo finds comfort in the Paramount Plus vaults, with Jordan revisiting the Tom Clancy masterpiece that started it all, and Matt countering with a series sequel featuring Harrison Ford's bookworm Boy Scout desk-jockey. Then, a personalized recommendation request from listener Patrick sparks a highly volatile intra-pod war. While Jordan goes with a ‘70s screwball classic, Matt goes full "Muppet Radical" with his recommendation for a late-period Muppet movie over the Jim Henson-produced originals. Finally, Producer Sam hosts a trivia game called The Sum of All Jack Ryans, which ignites a flurry of deep pulls, culminating with a classic Jordan anecdote featuring Star Trek's Gates McFadden desperately trying to escape a cruise ship at the outbreak of the pandemic.

Strange Cases - When BOY SCOUTS Go MISSINGBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/missing-persons-mysteries--5624803/support.
Scouting America's Chris Mehaffey and former Omaha mayor Hal Daub are leading a legion of scouts to raise money to put a mini State of Liberty in Turner Park. Also, beware of "too good to be true" car sales online.
In this episode Bob Dusso discusses the Boy Scouts of America and Scouting USA, covering scouting traditions, leadership development, merit badges, summer camps, and how the program has evolved to include family and girls. He shares personal stories, memories from trips like Philmont, and why scouting still matters for youth and communities. Bob also outlines ways to get involved locally, highlights a Summer Social on June 11 (5:30 PM) for families and supporters, and provides contact numbers for joining or learning more: 701-775-3189, 701-293-5011, or 218-230-4325.
"Not long ago, the Boy Scouts were a major part of American life. Now they're gone. How does that happen?" –Ken► Script Sources and Notes: https://shorturl.at/cfc4WFOLLOW KEN:
Send us Fan MailGetting lost is one thing. Realizing you are alone, unsure which direction is safe, and too far in to pretend it is fine is something else. Pastor Angus opens with a seventh-grade Boy Scouts story where one wrong turn at a fork turns a hike into panic, and then flips it into a powerful metaphor for Christian life: we can start out walking with Jesus, but if we drift from the group and stop listening, we end up off trail fast.From there, we dig into walking in the Spirit through Galatians 5, including the hard truth that accepting Christ does not instantly erase old habits, triggers, or patterns. We talk about the works of the flesh, why “just don't do it” rarely lasts, and why transformation is more than behavior modification. One of the most helpful moments is unpacking conviction vs condemnation: conviction is Holy Spirit pointing to what He wants to heal, while condemnation tries to shut you down with shame.We also get practical with spiritual growth habits that build a real relationship with Holy Spirit: getting in the Word, praying as a dialogue, learning to listen in the quiet, and what it can mean to pray in the Spirit when you do not even know what to ask. Pastor Angus uses a simple light-switch picture to explain spiritual power: God's power is present, but we still choose whether we live “on” or “off” in everyday pressure.Finally, we clarify baptism in the Holy Spirit as empowerment for witness and daily living, and we hold space for a clear invitation to receive Jesus and step onto a new path with a new destination.

ON ADVENTURE PODCAST | EPISODE 72 Episode 72: Risk in Every Form with Greg Winchester Episode Description What does it take to keep saying yes to risk, in the boardroom, on the trail, and across all seven continents, for forty years and counting? Greg Winchester calls himself an armchair explorer, but the title sells him short. Over a 40-plus-year career in commercial real estate, he has worked through the savings and loan crisis, the 2008 financial crisis, and COVID, first as a banker, then as a co-owner, and today as an investor through his family office, Summit Investors. In 2003, he and two partners bought their company from its founders in a management buyout, personally guaranteeing the entire debt with 300 employees and no safety net. As Greg puts it, it was like walking to the end of the diving board and jumping, hoping there was water below. A lifelong Boy Scout who fell in love with the outdoors in the Roan Highlands of North Carolina, Greg went on to serve on the board of the Appalachian Trail Conservancy and to build a life of generosity that reaches all seven continents, inspired by the book Seven Summits. From an orphanage in Bolivia to a pastors' training center in Uganda, a nearly thousand-year-old cathedral in Winchester, England, and Sir Ernest Shackleton's grave on South Georgia Island near Antarctica, he and his wife set out to support smaller, lesser-known nonprofits and build real relationships, not just write checks. In this conversation, Josh and Greg trace the many forms risk can take. They dig into why leverage is a two-edged sword, how diversification and dry powder let you run into the fire when others are running out, why your gut becomes a kind of superpower after twenty years in any arena, and how setting goals every year since his twenties shaped a life of purpose. Greg also shares the two questions a pair of mentors asked him in his mid-fifties, what is a noble cause you can get involved with, and what do you actually want to do, and why finishing well may be the greatest adventure of all.

In the quiet suburb of Cockeysville, Maryland, nothing bad was supposed to happen. Families left their doors unlocked. Neighbors trusted one another. And the Browning family seemed picture perfect. Fifteen-year-old Nicholas Browning was bright, polite, and dependable, a Boy Scout, a good student, the kind of teenager parents trusted without question. But on a cold February night in 2008, that image would shatter forever. After being dropped off for what should have been an ordinary sleepover with friends, Nick returned home the next morning to a nightmare scene: his parents, John and Tamara Browning, and his two younger brothers, Benjamin and Gregory, had all been brutally murdered. What investigators uncovered next would shock an entire community and reveal a darkness hiding behind the facade of an all-American family.

He Was Trapped in Complete Darkness for 5 Days… But He Says He Wasn't Alone. A simple Boy Scout camping trip turned into a nightmare when 10-year-old Joshua Dennis disappeared deep inside an abandoned mine known as the Hidden Treasure Mine — a sprawling underground labyrinth stretching more than 20 miles beneath the earth. Alone in complete darkness, with no flashlight, no food, and no way out, Joshua waited for someone to find him. Search crews combed the dangerous mine for days, battling collapsing tunnels, hidden shafts, and even volatile dynamite left behind decades earlier.As hope faded, authorities prepared to end the search. But then a historian with an unshakable feeling arrived at the mine… and what happened next stunned everyone involved.How did Joshua survive five days underground? Why did he believe he wasn't alone in the darkness? And what strange moment inside the mine changed the lives of everyone connected to the rescue? This is the unbelievable true story of faith, survival, mystery, and divine light even in the midst of the dark.----------------------------------------------If you're a fan of true crime but crave a dose of inspiration instead of tales of darkness, The Miracle Files is your perfect alternative.

You can learn a lot about leadership from a trail, a toolbox, and a loss. Randy Boyd, President of University of Tennessee Systems, joins us for a wide-ranging, deeply personal conversation that starts with Knoxville roots and life lessons then builds into a life philosophy he learned in the Boy Scouts: leave every trail better than you found it. That one idea becomes a filter for work ethic, entrepreneurship, public service, and how we treat the communities that raise us.

The “St. Louis Morning Brief” covers a series of major local controversies beginning with St. Charles voting 7-1 to permanently block large-scale data centers after intense public backlash over development concerns. The crew also reacts to the conviction of a former Manchester-area Boy Scout leader accused of using troop funds for personal expenses before pivoting into a bizarre revelation that The Walt Disney Company consultants advised downtown St. Louis officials to visually disguise vacant buildings with neutral paint colors to improve visitors' perception of safety during major events. Marc and Kim mock the city's “paint over the problem” strategy while discussing Disney's declining movie reputation and the upcoming Mandalorian film featuring Grogu, better known as Baby Yoda. The segment closes with analysis of the escalating legal battle between the St. Louis Police Board and city officials over a disputed $67 million budget shortfall tied to state policing mandates and Rams settlement money.

What happens when a funeral home discovers the “dead” man in the body bag is breathing? In this episode of The Box of Oddities, Kat's bizarre colon tattoo sparks a conversation that spirals into one of history's oldest fears: being buried alive. Jethro dives into the chilling true story of Walter Williams, the Ohio hospice patient who was declared dead… only to begin breathing again inside a funeral home body bag hours later. Along the way, the duo explores the terrifying history of premature burial, the strange medical phenomenon known as Lazarus Syndrome, Victorian “safety coffins,” and the unsettling gray area between life and death. Then, things get radioactive. Kat tells the unbelievable true story of David Hahn, better known as “The Radioactive Boy Scout,” the Michigan teenager who became obsessed with nuclear science and secretly attempted to build a homemade breeder reactor in his backyard shed using materials scavenged from smoke detectors, lantern mantles, and old clock dials. His dangerous experiments eventually triggered a federal hazmat response and turned his suburban property into a Superfund cleanup site. It's a story of genius, obsession, government intervention, and the terrifying reality of what can happen when curiosity goes unchecked. Also in this episode: * The creepy origins of “dead ringers” * Why some corpses make noises after death * Spider facts you absolutely did not ask for * The horrifying side effects of Brazilian wandering spider venom * Why there are spiders living on Mount Everest If you love strange history, bizarre science, dark humor, medical mysteries, paranormal-adjacent stories, and unbelievable true events, this episode of The Box of Oddities is exactly the kind of nightmare fuel your brain ordered.

The Earth's magnetic field makes compasses work so that Boy Scouts don't get lost in the woods and ships arrive at the correct port. It actually moves over time. This means that navigators periodically need updated information on the position of the pole for their charts.Many people have the idea that the Earth's magnetic field moves very slowly. The Earth's magnetic field actually offers some of the clearest evidences that the Earth is young. Geophysicists recently reported that the north magnetic pole has moved 800 kilometers northwest of where it was in 1904. That's a much faster rate of movement than many people imagined. Its speed and direction of movement are about what was expected by geophysicists, however. They also report that the magnetic pole has moved as much as 80 kilometers in one day.Measurements taken over the last 150 years show that the Earth's magnetic field is decaying. When Christ walked the hills of Palestine, the magnetic field was twice as powerful as it is today.The Earth is much more dynamic and changeable than most people, including many scientists, think. These rapid changes in the position of the magnetic pole and the rapid decay of the magnetic field offer evidence that the Earth is much younger than many people think. One of the world's best known experts has shown that the decaying magnetic field means that the Earth could not be much older than the Bible's genealogies indicate.Job 26:7" He stretcheth out the north over the empty place, and hangeth the earth upon nothing.”Prayer: Lord, the blessings of modern travel rely on Your gift of to us of the Earth's magnetic field. I also thank You for the beauty of the northern and southern lights that is created by the magnetic field. Amen.REF.: "News of Magnetic Poles." Science News, Vol. 128.

How do leaders stay steady in the storm of tough choices? This week, I sit down with Jack Briggs, a retired major general with a 30-year career in the military who is also a highly seasoned, for a masterclass in pressure-tested decision making.The episode debunks the myth that high-stakes choices are unique to the military or boardroom. Instead, Jack argues, “pressure is pressure,” whether the risk is reputational, operational, or personal. The discussion highlights the three traits of the best decision makers: anchoring decisions in firm principles, seeking help with humility, and making the call… decisively, not reactively.Listeners will come away with four essential questions to use in any crisis and learn why reframing “crises” into a set of solvable problems is vital for calm, effective leadership. This conversation is a must for anyone seeking practical, repeatable strategies to lead well, even when the stakes—and the anxieties—are high.What You'll Learn- Anchor your decisions in principles.- Lead with humility and build your team.- Distinguish between problems and crises.- The power of a structured decision framework.- Be decisive and own the outcome.- Focus on your sphere of influence.Podcast Timestamps03:18 Jack's origin story: from the Thunderbirds to the Air Force Academy05:37 When leadership first appeared: Boy Scouts, the leadership laboratory, and the Eagle Scout07:37 The Air Force Academy as a leadership lab: authority vs. responsibility10:42 Being the snowplow: how to delegate without abandoning accountability14:11 Leadership is a science and an art: training the recipe, then adapting it16:41 Combat to boardroom: why pressure is pressure regardless of context19:19 Defending North America: leading at continental scale21:28 The three characteristics of the best decision makers23:24 The archer analogy: principles, input, decisiveness26:45 What leaders get wrong: fighting the fight they wish they had28:06 Mob rule, Moses, and principled decision-making32:11 Crisis vs. problem: why language matters under pressure33:10 Snowstorms and problem buckets: a real-world example35:26 The four questions for high-stress decisions40:01 Checklists that work: laminate it and they will keep it43:18 Humility plus decisiveness: being disagree-able45:36 Choosing the least worst option and owning it48:35 Final thoughts: stop chasing outcomes, start leading in your three feetKEYWORDSPositive Leadership, Decision Making, Decision Making Under Pressure, Humility, Air Force Career, Military Leadership, Air Force Academy, Leadership Lab, Principles-Based Decisions, Delegating Authority, Crisis Management, Operational Risk, Financial Risk, Reputational Risk, Pressure in Leadership, Crisis vs Problem, Crisis Communication, CEO Success
Jared Negrete was a 12-year-old Boy Scout from California who went missing on July 19, 1991, during a hiking trip in the San Bernardino Mountains. He had been attempting to summit San Gorgonio with his troop when he fell behind due to exhaustion. After briefly being seen alone on the trail, Jared was never seen alive again.A massive search effort was launched, involving hundreds of volunteers, search dogs, helicopters, and infrared scans across dozens of square miles. Early in the investigation, searchers discovered footprints and signs of possible movement off-trail, along with snack wrappers and drag marks suggesting Jared may have traveled further into the wilderness after becoming separated from his group.The most unsettling discovery came days later when Jared's disposable camera was found. Inside were normal hiking photos, followed by a final image showing a close-up of Jared's own face. No one knows who took the picture or why. Despite extensive searches, no remains were ever found, and more than 30 years later, the fate of Jared Negrete remains one of California's most enduring wilderness mysteries.#TrueCrimeRecaps #UnsolvedDisappearance #JaredNegrete #SanGorgonio

Veteran character actor James Karen appeared in over 80 movies, more than 100 television shows and a staggering 5,000 TV commercials. In a career spanning nearly 7 decades (!), he's worked with Frederic March, Lauren Bacall, Gene Hackman, Steven Spielberg, Jane Fonda, Robert Redford and Will Smith, to name a few. Gilbert and Frank phoned James to cover a wide range of topics, including his film debut in the immortal “Frankenstein Meets the Space Monster,” his years-long friendship with the legendary Buster Keaton and his experience sharing a townhouse with Marlon Brando, Wally Cox and Maureen Stapleton. Also, James “sells” Craig T. Nelson a haunted house, a Boy Scout uniform leads to an acting career and a controversial “Jeffersons” episode nearly torpedoes a TV pitchman gig. PLUS: James parties with Clark Gable! Gilbert gets a one-cent residual check! Moe Howard recites from “The Tempest”! And James teaches a teenaged Michael Douglas to drive!

Merriam-Webster's Word of the Day for April 27, 2026 is: boondoggle BOON-dah-gul noun A boondoggle is an expensive and wasteful project usually paid for with public money. Boondoggle is also a word for a braided cord worn by Boy Scouts as a neckerchief slide, hatband, or ornament. // Critics say the dam is a complete boondoggle—over budget, behind schedule, and unnecessary. See the entry > Examples: "A controversial proposal to construct a new bridge from Bridgeport to Long Island is either a bold, visionary step into the future or an unaffordable boondoggle that could cost more than $50 billion." — Christopher Keating, The Hartford (Connecticut) Courant, 8 Mar. 2026 Did you know? When boondoggle popped up in the early 1900s, lots of people tried to explain where the word came from. One theory traced it to an Ozarkian word for "gadget," while another related it to the Tagalog word that gave us boondocks. Another hypothesis suggested that boondoggle came from the name of leather toys Daniel Boone supposedly made for his dog. But the only theory that is supported by evidence is much simpler. In the 1920s, Robert Link, a scoutmaster for the Boy Scouts of America, apparently coined the word to name the braided leather cords made and worn by scouts. The word came to prominence when such a boondoggle was presented to the Prince of Wales at the 1929 World Jamboree, and it's been with us ever since. Over time, it developed the additional sense describing a wasteful or impractical project.
The system was supposed to protect them. Instead, it's being used to silence them. In this episode of Cut to the Chase: with Gregg Goldfarb, South Florida mass tort attorney Gregg Goldfarb sits down with trial attorney Jason Joy and survivor advocate Curtis Garrison to give a critical update on the legal battles reshaping how America handles child sexual abuse cases — from landmark NDA legislation to the corruption hiding inside the Boy Scouts bankruptcy.

Join Gregg, Jason, and Curtis on Cut to the Chase: as they discuss: What Trey's Law is and why its federal passage could be a game-changer for every abuse survivor in America Why over 24 states have now opened or eliminated statute of limitations windows — and which states are next How the Boy Scouts $2.5 billion bankruptcy became a case study in litigation financing gone wrong Why survivors are receiving far less than they deserve — and who is really profiting The disturbing connections between Epstein survivors, Boy Scouts victims, and the same attorneys and institutions appearing on both sides Why the window to file may be closing in your state — and what to do right now What survivors, advocates, and concerned citizens can do today to help move the needle KEY MOMENTS 00:00 — Triangulation tactics used to divide survivor communities 00:35 — Gregg introduces Curtis Garrison and Jason Joy 01:10 — Trey's Law update: NDA bans for child sex abuse settlements 02:30 — Federal bipartisan legislation: Cruz, Gillibrand, Klobuchar and more co-sponsor the Treys Act 04:00 — Statute of limitations updates across states 05:30 — Maryland caps liability — what it means for survivors 06:30 — How to get involved: SOScsa.org and advocacy steps 08:00 — Epstein survivors and the connections to Boy Scouts 10:00 — The common denominators: power, wealth, and institutions 12:00 — Litigation financing explained — how lawyers are profiting at victims' expense 18:00 — What survivors should look for when hiring an attorney 22:00 — Boy Scouts bankruptcy: potential malpractice and Congressional investigation ahead Guest Bios Jason Joy Jason Joy is a trial attorney who represents survivors of child sexual abuse, including Boy Scouts claimants and clergy abuse victims.

Missing Paperboys /// Chapter 3 /// Boy Scout Killer www.TrueCrimeGarage.com In the early eighties middle America experienced tragedies that no parent could imagine. Newspaper boys were disappearing. They would step out into the dark of the early morning hours to deliver the daily news to their neighborhoods and some of them did not return. It started in Iowa and then moved to Nebraska. Kids were plucked off the street just a few steps into their routes and some have vanished forever. The first boy gone was Johnny Gosch. The second was Danny Joe Eberle. The third boy didn't have a paper route at all. Christopher Walden was abducted near his home while walking to school, on December 2, 1983.

Secretary of Defense Pete Hegseth recently put Scouting America — formerly known as the Boy Scouts — "on notice." The once great organization was becoming too woke, he said, and had been tarnished by embracing DEI. On this episode, we're talking to Benjamin René Jordan, author of Modern Manhood and the Boy Scouts of America, about the Scouts' surprisingly progressive history. And we ask him about the complex relationship between scouting and the military.To manage podcast ad preferences, review the links below:See pcm.adswizz.com for information about our collection and use of personal data for sponsorship and to manage your podcast sponsorship preferences.Learn more about sponsor message choices: podcastchoices.com/adchoicesNPR Privacy Policy
