Get ready for an action-packed episode as we welcome the ever-entertaining Shawley Coker, who kicks things off with a fresh perspective on everything from skincare routines to the thrill of racing in a McLaren. We humorously weigh the pros and cons of sticky phone holders while pondering how skipping sunscreen today might haunt our future selves. Shawley's tales of high-speed adventures and the unpredictable nature of friendships are sure to leave you on the edge of your seat, contemplating the fine line between excitement and recklessness. Our journey continues into the labyrinth of suburban living, where we untangle the complicated web woven by Homeowners Associations (HOAs). Hear firsthand stories of unexpected penalties, neighborhood camaraderie, and the ongoing debate between order and freedom within these communities. The episode also wades into the challenges of riverfront living, where the beauty of the Brazos River must be balanced against the risks of wildlife encounters and flooding. We explore strategies for keeping children safe and share tips on coexisting with nature's more formidable residents, like snakes and alligators. Finally, we take a light-hearted jaunt through personal style evolution and luxury car collections, with a touch of nostalgia for past fashion faux pas. Listen as we marvel at the modesty of billionaires' car choices and swap stories about rare and classic vehicles that have captured our imaginations. Whether discussing survival scenarios in the wild, the nuances of casual drinking, or the oddities of reality TV, this episode is a whirlwind of laughter, advice, and reflection that promises something for everyone.

I had an absolute blast recording this episode with Summer Shine—owner of Sunshine Paddle Adventures here in Waco. Not only is she building one of the most fun businesses in town (clear kayaks at night? YES please), but she's also a serial entrepreneur with the kind of grit, creativity, and life wisdom we all need more of.We dove into all the topics (yep, even the three her best friend specifically told us not to bring up… whoops), and it made for one of the most real and refreshing convos we've had on the podcast. Summer shared what it's really like to rebuild after burnout, why she's fiercely protective of joy in business, and how paddling the Brazos became more than just a fun idea—it became a calling.✨ Whether you're a business owner, a fan of Waco's riverfront, or someone who just loves a good comeback story—this one's for you.Located right along the Brazos River, Sunshine Paddle Adventures offers: Clear Kayak Moonshine Tours Haunted Paddles in the fall Brunch Paddleboard experiences Hourly and full-day rentals

Book two in the Jaguar Oracles series is out and wow!  Things are getting intense in Texas! Listen in to see what adventures away in this next exciting installment  note: links may be affiliate links that provide me with a small commission at no extra expense to you.   I seriously love the premise of this series.  How often do we forget "our name" (our identity) in Christ and need a wakeup call!  And is it just me or did we start this environmental mess in Eden? I mean, we didn't have to fight nature until then, right?  Animals had to pay the price for Adam's and Eve's disobedience too.   Wow.     The Way Back to Eden by Kurt Mahler A Mystical Journey to Restore the Natural Order as Hope Guides the Way In the lush wilderness of the Rio Grande Valley, a centuries-old prophecy is about to be fulfilled. The jaguars, once the revered rulers of the animal kingdom, have vanished-until a brave jaguar named Oracle begins a journey to summon the scattered tribes and restore their rightful place. A captivating quest and an unforgettable journey home. His quest intersects with young Paco and his extraordinary animal companions-a wise horse named Plod, a storytelling toad called Bog, and a clever raccoon named Patch-as they navigate the mystical landscapes of the Texas-Mexico borderlands and Brazos River bottomlands, a quest that weaves through ancient forests, mysterious towers, and sacred sanctuaries. Guided by ancient wisdom and the enduring loyalty of his animal friends, Oracle's epic journey leads him through a world on the brink of upheaval and filled with human drama as he discovers clues to the missing jaguarundi tribe and seeks to unite the warring animal factions. The fate of the Valley rests on Oracle recovering lost memories and rediscovering the original harmony between man and beast. From vast Texan ranches to ancient palm forests and from well-ordered zoos to untamed wilderness, The Way Back to Eden weaves together a rich tapestry of cultures, legends, and the immutable power of the natural world. Blending elements of magical realism, environmental advocacy, and pulse-pounding adventure, this sweeping tale transports readers into a vibrant, unforgettable world where Oracle's quest is to preserve the ancient balance and the interconnectedness of all living things. The Way Back to Eden, a deeply satisfying and thought-provoking fantasy epic, is the second installment in the six-volume Jaguar Oracle series. Discover the magic that awaits where ancient wildlife sanctuaries hold secrets, where ghosts and tree house hermits guide lost souls home, and where the path back to Eden might just be hidden in plain sight.

This episode highlights Big Chief's passion for exploring craft whiskey from all corners of the trail. Cheers to another unforgettable journey on The Whiskey Trip!

Welcome to the Hidden History of Texas. This is Episode 46 – Frontier Forts 1850 - 1856Frontier Forts 1850 - 1856 -  I'm your host and guide Hank Wilson. And as always, brought to you by Ashby Navis and Tennyson Media Publishers, producers of  a comprehensive catalog of  audiobooks and high-quality games, productivity, and mental health apps. Visit AshbyNavis.com for more information. Following the death of Maj. Gen. George Mercer Brooke in 1851, his successor, Brevet Maj. Gen. Persifor F. Smith, added Forts Ewell and Merrill in South Texas. Pushing the military line further west, Smith authorized construction of Forts Clark, Terrett, Mason July 6, 1851, McKavett March 1852, Chadbourne, Phantom Hill November 14, 1851, and Belknap June 24, 1851. To help plug gaps in the northwest, Camp Cooper was erected in 1856. A double line of forts now protected Texas' southern and western frontiers. Let's take a look at four of these forts, and I'm going to start with Fort Belknap. Fort McKavett - Quarters Fort Belknap was established at the site of what is now Newcastle in Young County Texas. Newcastle is located in what is known as North Central Texas and is very near the headwaters of the Brazos River. In June of 1851, Brigadier General William Belknap established the fort in the area because there was adequate water. The fort was what is known as a four-company post, there were members of the 2nd  unit of the U.S. Dragoons, the 7th U.S. Infantry, the 2nd U.S. Calvary, and the 6th U.S. Calvary. Fort Belknap was the northern anchor of the central Texas chain of forts which had been established to protect the Texas frontier from the Red River to the Rio Grande. It had no defensive walls or works and the troops that inhabited it were used to pursue raiding bands from the various tribes that inhabited the area. At times, troops from the fort trailed into Kansas to do battle with their enemies. One of the results of the fort's presence, was the creation  of a centralized hub of roads that made travel throughout the region easier, including the Butterfield Overland Mail route from St. Louis to San Francisco. At the start of the civil war, troops were moved and union troops finally returned in April of 1867. It was finally abandoned for good in September of 1867. In the 1970s the citizens restored and rebuilt some of the buildings and today it is open to visitors.  One other frontier fort that was opened in 1851and did not receive the same care and consideration from latter generations, was Fort Mason. Fort Mason was established in July of 1851 in Mason Texas. Mason is one of the most picturesque towns in perhaps the most picturesque regions of the  State. It's about 60 miles from where I currently live and while the town itself is well worth a visit, the remains of the fort, not so much. There's only one  building left and it's very disappointing if you're interested in Texas history. Fort Martin Scott in Fredericksburg or Fort Croghan in Burnet are both much more informative and easier to visit. Anyway, Fort Mason was established in 1851 atop a hill that offered the soldiers an expansive view of the land around. Maj. Hamilton W. Merrill and companies A and B of the Second Dragoons were the first solders to occupy the fort. There is no clear record of who the  post was named after, and it appears that it most likely was named either for Lt. George T. Mason, who was killed at Brownsville during the Mexican War, or for Gen. Richard Barnes Mason, who died only a year before the fort was established. The fort was occupied on and off until 1861 at which time it was taken over by secessionist forces of Texas. A couple of notable officers who served at Fort Mason when it was in Union hands was Robert E. Lee and John Bell Hood. After the civil war the union took  control of the fort and was finally abandoned in 1869.  One fort that was never officially a fort is known locally as  Phantom Hill which was established on November 14,

Odell decided to go fishing in the Brazos River along with four friends. While wading upstream, the narrator, who couldn't swim, stepped into a deep hole and began to drown. Struggling and swallowing water, he eventually gave up and experienced an out-of-body vision.He saw himself from above, then encountered a bright light and Jesus, who communicated through ESP. Jesus reviewed the narrator's life, highlighting both good and bad deeds. Despite the narrator's initial fear and guilt, Jesus reassured him with love and peace. After a journey through a tunnel, the narrator was abruptly pulled back into his body when someone lifted him out of the water, saving his life. The narrator vomited the swallowed water, and though he was sore and shocked, he survived the ordeal

Once again I am getting reports of Bigfoots being seen on the Brazos River. I compare these reports to old reports and take a deep dive into the sighting location. Also, What's up with haunted objects and haunted items? We take a look inside a location we are currently investigating that could be full of haunted items with ghostly attachments.

Today on Small Changes Big Shifts we have Ron Hall. Ron is the author of “SAME KIND OF DIFFERENT AS ME.” Now turned into a movie, it is the story of an international art dealer Ron Hall (Greg Kinnear) who must befriend a dangerous homeless man (Djimon Hounsou) in order to save his struggling marriage to his wife (Renée Zellweger), a woman whose dreams will lead all three of them on the most remarkable journey of their lives. Jon Voight plays Hall's father, with whom he reconciles thanks to the revelations of his new life. Ron Hall's life was centered around a successful career as an international art dealer and a passion for his Rocky Top ranch on the Brazos River. All this changed in 1998 as a result of an encounter with a homeless man who was threatening to kill everyone in sight in the homeless shelter where Ron and his wife Deborah had begun to volunteer two weeks earlier. This life-changing encounter, featured on many television and radio shows, inspired Ron to write his first book SAME KIND OF DIFFERENT AS ME, a story of hope and redemption. The word-of-mouth hit became a New York Times platinum bestseller and stayed on the list for more than three and one-half years. In 2007, President Bush appointed Ron to the State Department Cultural Property Committee to advise the President on diplomatic matters regarding international art and antiquities. He served through December 2011. Ron is a screenwriter and producer of the movie version of his book SAME KIND OF DIFFERENT AS ME. It was released in theaters across America by Paramount Pictures February 3, 2017. He also published SAME KIND OF DIFFERENT AS ME, Children's Version, also known as EVERYBODY CAN HELP SOMEBODY. Ron and his wife Beth reside in Dallas where they direct the Same Kind of Different as Me Foundation. into achieving better sleep and overall well-being.

Episode 31 -The Runaway Scrape, the Battle of San Jacinto, and Independence It's the spring of 1836 and the Alamo has fallen, folks are scared, and many people have no idea what's going to happen. As a result, what has become known as the Runaway Scrape is taking shape. But what was the Runaway Scrape and why isn't it talked about? Many Texans aren't exactly proud of the Runaway Scrape, because it was created by the Texas settlers who fled from their homes when Santa Anna began his drive into Texas starting in February of 1836. Now looking back in time, you can't really blame the settlers for leaving, after all Santa Anna was determined to crush any semblance of independence or revolution. If you look at a map of Texas it's easy to see the first communities that were affected. Those where those who were in the south central portions of the state. This area centered around San Patricio, Refugio, and San Antonio. Those folks actually began to leave in mid January of 1836 when they heard that the Mexican army was gathering on the Rio Grande. Things intensified once Sam Houston arrived in Gonzales on March 11 and learned about the fall of the Alamo. At that time he decided to retreat inland and east towards the Colorado River, and he ordered all local inhabitants to accompany him. Houston sent riders out from Gonzales to spread the news of the fall of the Alamo. Of course, upon hearing this news and knowing there was nothing between themselves and Santa Anna's troops, people began to leave everything and make their way to safety. As a result, this became an extremely large scale evacuation and the temporary capital Washington-on-the-Brazos was deserted by March 17. By April 1 Richmond and settlements on both sides of the Brazos river were  evacuated. As Houston continued to retreat eastward towards the Sabine River he left every settlement between the Colorado and the Brazos defenseless. For their own safety, those settlers began making their way toward Louisiana or Galveston Island. East Texas areas of Nacogdoches and San Augustine ended up abandoned just before April 13. One of the facts that often goes unreported about the flight was how because of the panic there was little or no preparation. There was also significant fear not only because of the Mexican army but also by the frontier Indians. The refugees traveled by any type of transportation they could find, or they walked. They experienced diseases, the weather was cold, wet, and many of them suffered from a lack of food.  Added to the discomforts of travel and their fear were all kinds of diseases, intensified by cold, rain, and hunger. Many of them died and those who did were buried where they fell. The evacuation continued up to and until they received news of Houston's victory in the battle of San Jacinto. The battle of San Jacinto was the final battle of the Texas Revolution. Due to Sam Houston's constant movement to the East, many Texans thought it would never take place. The army left Gonzales on March 13, 1836, crossed the Colorado River on the 17th, and then pitched camp near present day Columbus on the 20th. During the march Houston had been trying to recruit volunteers and with reinforcements from other groups, the army increased its about 1,200. While this was an improvement, scouts reported that there was close to 1325 Mexican troops west of the Colorado. Then on the 25th, they learned that Fannin had been defeated and his men slaughtered in Goliad. and at that point many of the men left to go join their families on the Runaway Scrape.  Houston was not deterred and led his troops to San Felipe de Austin by the 28th and by the 30th they arrived at the Jared E. Groce plantation on the Brazos River. At this time, interim President David G. Burnet ordered Houston to stop his retreat; Secretary of War Thomas J. Rusk urged him to be more decisive in his defense of Texas. Meanwhile Santa Anna decided to take control of the Texas coast and ...

In September of 1936, much of Central Texas was enduring heavy rainstorms and flooding, with Waco especially hard-hit. Cresting at 41 feet, the Brazos River burst through a levee a mile above town, resulting in a torrent that put much of East Waco under water. Approximately two thousand residents were left homeless, and city manager W. C. Torrence ordered martial law in the flooded area. Alva Stem, former director of Waco Parks and Recreation, recalls the floodwaters in Cameron Park: "The flood was up to one of the shelter houses just below Proctor Springs, and that was as close as we could get to the playground because the water was up above our heads by the shelter house. And I can remember us kids going down there and taking our bathing suits and swimming out to this shelter house, then climbing up on top of it and diving off into the floodwaters, like crazy kids would do. But we were good swimmers back in those days." Waco native Frank Curre Jr. shares his memories of the '36 flood: "And they boxed off our brand new Washington Street Bridge because it had pillars under it and they thought it would wash them out. They opened the Suspension Bridge because it was suspended from one side to the other. You could travel on that. Barns would come floating down your river, and they'd crash into the bridge and be chickens in that old barn, be hogs coming down, horses, cows. A great big fat hog come out; we wrestled him down. We asked the sheriff's deputy or policeman or something, we said, What do you want us to do with him? Said, ‘Take him home if you want him.' Well, that night, Mama and my step-daddy was putting up sausage. (laughter)" Curre, with Dorothy Head Powell, describes East Waco: "Where Elm Street is and Dallas Street, we had a streetlight over there on Dallas and Elm. The bottom of that streetlight was dipping in the water. And you know the two-story red brick—" Powell: "East Terrace." "That water come up to that balcony on that two-story house." Woodrow Carlile recalls how the flood affected Edgefield, the neighborhood where he grew up: "The water got into the yard and perhaps two feet high in the yard. But I believe our house was constructed to where the water could get under the house. Maybe our floors were three feet off the ground. I don't ever recall water in the house." He remembers an odd sight at Edgefield Baptist Church: "Our piano in the basement of the church was floating around." Carlile used to stake his family's dairy cows near the river, and he tells about rescuing one with water up to his waist: "I recall walking Sarah down Bosque Street away from the river toward Fifth Street with my tennis shoes around her neck, and I was barefooted. I thought more of my tennis shoes than I did my feet, evidently." In the 1930s, after decades of devastating floods throughout Texas, the U.S. government began authorizing the construction of dams along Texas rivers to control excess rainfall. This led to the Whitney Reservoir, which was completed in 1951 on the Brazos River and has prevented in Waco floods like the one in 1936. Learn more about your ad choices.

Stanton Studios, expanded from the well-known Stanton Glass Studio, was founded in 1979 by Bryant J. Stanton. Beginning with a workbench in a loft studio and a couple of crates of glass, the studio has grown into a nationally-recognized business with completed work in businesses and homes across Texas and the United States. In addition to Stanton, his four sons and their team of craftsmen operate Stanton Studios just north of Waco, Texas.  Stanton began his journey into the world of art as a young adult in high school. When he wrote a research paper on Gothic Cathedrals, he became fascinated with stained glass and window bays. Later, attending Texas Tech then transferring to Baylor, Stanton studied 3-Dimensional Studio Art and found that he incorporated glass wherever possible in all of his art projects. But the young artist didn't begin pursuing his passion until a fateful event occurred.  When Stanton took an off campus walk, he discovered an old stained glass shop and met a man who changed his life by teaching him the craft. After making his first butterfly sun-catcher, the young Stanton was “instantly hooked.” He accepted a full-time job at The Warehouse working for Homer Owen and made inspirational gifts – sun-catchers with bible verses on them.  In 1979, Stanton began his own business in a downtown Waco, Texas, shop and started calling churches and businesses, advertising his services. He received his first restoration job fixing up windows for Central Christian Church. His first two window commissions were created for Pelican's Warf and the Brazos Landing; ironically, both waterfront restaurants wanted Pelican-themed windows looking out onto the Brazos River.  Stanton taught his first child, Tiffany, the shop's ways and how to handle glass. Soon after, Nathan and Jordan, the eldest sons, began learning their father's trade. Jordan was “a little clone of his father” and quickly picked up the skills needed for creating glass. As assistant manager, he accompanied his father to meetings. Nathan, the eldest son, found that working with glass was not his passion and learned his own trade – woodworking. Tiffany eventually taught her younger sibling, Samuel, to work with glass, and he joined the shop as a grouter.  As time passed, Stanton hired an in-house glass painter, Joe Barbieri, his wife Suzanne eventually became the bookkeeper, and Jordan became the official manager. Samuel also moved up from being in “the mud room” to being a builder. Tim, the youngest son, joined the shop as a builder, and Nathan helped to expand Stanton Glass Studio into Stanton Studios as he brought his woodworking abilities to the shop. Since founding the business, Stanton has worked tirelessly designing and creating works in glass. The knowledge and experience gained have allowed him to complete iconic works that are not only breathtaking but magnificent feats to design and build. He and his family can tackle projects ranging from stained glass for churches, residences or businesses to huge sculptures for universities or giant glass domes for hotels. Stanton says he most enjoys projects that are big and challenging, such as the 3-story long DNA sculpture that hangs suspended in a stairwell in the McLennan Community College Sciences Building in Waco, the iconic dome of the Driskill Hotel in Austin, and the restoration of the priceless Louis Comfort Tiffany windows for a Galveston church. Stanton has come a long way from that first butterfly suncatcher. He and his family are always learning more and continuing to find new challenges in creating the most beautiful art glass. Due to their success, Stanton has served on several community boards, including the Waco Chamber of Commerce and the Waco Art Center. He is the current president of the Stained Glass Association of America (SGAA) and also served as the past Editorial Chair of Stained Glass Quarterly magazine. SGAA's 2023 conference will be held in Buffalo, New York, September 27 through October 1. As Stanton Studios continues to hire more builders and expand, its founder hopes that the business will live on through his sons, who are now in charge of teaching the new hires the skills involved with stained glass making – keeping the art and craft of stained glass alive.  

More than a hundred years ago, musicologist John Lomax recorded an African American woman named "Dink" singing a song as she washed her man's clothes in a Texas work camp on the banks of the Brazos River near Houston.Lomax and his son, Alan, were the first to publish it, including it in American Ballads and Folk Songs, which Macmillan brought out in 1934.A decade later, the great Josh White put the song on his first album. Since then, it has been recorded by scores of performers — Pete Seeger and Cisco Houston, Bob Dylan and Fred Neil — sometimes as "Fare Thee Well," but most often simply as "Dink's Song."Now flash forward three quarters of a century and a highlight of Joel and Ethan Coen's extraordinary 2013 film “Inside Llewyn Davis,” set in one winter's week in 1961 Greenwich Village, is Oscar Isaac, in the title role, performing a moody rendition of the same tune.That moment especially resonates with all us folk music lovers, because most of us learned the song from a 1960s recording by the late folk genius Dave Van Ronk, whose work seems to have inspired the Coens' film in the first place. Dear Dave. They didn't call him “the mayor of MacDougal Street” for nothing.Our Take on the TuneHave you ever notice the magic in folk melodies, that they are both ancient and stunningly contemporary at the same time?And the magic doesn't end there. Besides their wonderful timelessness, these well-worn melodies also are almost universal in their emotional appeal.This song has floated around the Floodisphere for many years, but it didn't really take flight until Vanessa came along to blend it with a soulful Old World aire, and then Randy stepped up to take the lead on the vocals. Here, with pensive soloing by Dan and Sam, is our merging of the thoroughly American “Dink's Song” and the lovely Scottish “Loch Lomond.” This is a public episode.

Ron Halls life was centered around a successful career as an international art dealer and a passion for his Rocky Top ranch on the Brazos River. All this changed in 1998 as a result on an encounter with a homeless man, Denver Moore, who was threatening to kill everyone in the Fort Worth, Texas homeless shelter where Ron and his wife Deborah had begun to volunteer two weeks earlier. After the death of his wife in November, 2000, Denver Moore moved in with Ron and lived with him for the next ten years. This life changing encounter, featured on many television and radio shows inspired Ron to write his first book SAME KIND OF DIFFERENT AS ME, a story of hope and redemption. The word of mouth hit became a New York Times platinum bestseller and stayed on the list for more than three and a half years. In 2007, President Bush appointed Ron to the State Department Cultural Property Committee to advise the President on diplomatic matters regarding international art and antiquities. He served through December 2011. Currently, Ron is a screenwriter and producer of the movie version of his book SAME KIND OF DIFFERENT AS ME. It opened in theaters across America by Paramount Pictures October 20, 2017. He recently published SAME KIND OF DIFFERENT AS ME, Children's version and WORKING OUR WAY HOME, the story of the ten years he and Denver lived together. He is currently writing the sequel for the movie. Ron and his wife Beth, reside in Dallas where they direct the Same Kind of Different as MeFoundation, SKODAM.org, established to raise money and awareness for the homeless.

On April 26, 1854 the United States War Department ordered Randolph B. Marcy to assist Indian Agent Robert S. Neighbors in locating and surveying land for reservations in unsettled territory.  Marcy and Neighbors did their job and after consulting with the Native American groups that the reservations were being created for, the chose a site of four leagues of land on the Brazos River near Fort Belknap, near modern Newcastle in Young County. This would be home for the Caddos, Wacos and others.  A second site was selected forty miles away on the Clear Fork of the Brazos.  This would be the reservation for the Comanches. Too make a long story short, things were difficult for the reservations. The Brazos Reservation became home to about 2,000 Native Americans. Caddo, Anadarko, Waco, and Tonkawa Indians had their own villages. These peoples were already successful farmers and had been for generations and grew corn, wheat, vegetables, and melons. After the treaty of August 30, 1855, about 450 of the Penateka or southern Comanches settled on the reservation established for them. They were taught to cultivate corn, melons, beans, pumpkins and other vegetables and they did very well, or would have had it not been for extreme drought that kept them from growing all that they needed. When Kickapoos, northern Comanches and others raided, the inhabitants of the reservations were blamed. The reservations were too close to the old Comanche raiding trail into Mexico and troublemakers would intrude from it and entice some Comanches to join them on raids. There wasn't enough protection from the federal troops for the reservation, and disappointingly, white hostility to the Native Americans living on the reservations was intense and hard to control from erupting into violence. Things were on the verge of getting out of control by 1858 and the safety of the reservation dwellers was a major of great concern due to white hostility and threats. They were removed from Texas and sent to Indian Territory in 1859. Both reservations reverted to the state when this happened. The Texas History Lessons Theme song, Walking Through History, was written and recorded by Derrick McClendon.

Join Jesse and Chris as we explore the hypothesis that an asteroid ended the Cretaceous AND the age of the reptiles.  It's a very compelling scientific story of discovery.This has been hotly debated back and forth for a long long time, with consensus being reached only recently (since I was in graduate school)Other options include a massive volcanic outpouring - Deccan Traps in India erupted >1 million cubic km of lava in a million year period, with 50% of that coming before the mass extinction event. The question is really about what killed so much stuff?  How does the Earth respond to massive impacts? There have been other large meteorite impacts (and big volcanic eruptions) with no mass extinction - why this one? Was the Earth already in a sorry state (lots of CO2 and mercury in the atmosphere) before the extinction?Flood basalt volcanism is tied to other major mass extinction events (end-Permian and end-Triassic)As we look at the evidence, we bounce around the globe.  We begin in Italy.  1- Gubbio, Italy.  Layers of ancient limestone that are now folded and uplifted.  Working from bottom to top- site became a magnet.  Why?  It has a thin layer of dark clay.  Walter Alverez became v. Interested in this.  He studied the foraminifera below and above.  He found that at the top of the white limestone, the vast diversity of the forams abruptly went missing.  2- Spain - 1500km away.  On the Atlantic coast outside of Zumaia.  2 beaches here which are of interest to geologists because they are situated among the longest set of continuous rock strata in the world.  Jan Smit was studying the forams here.  In these layers, Smit found a strange clay layer - just like Alvarez.  In these rocks, they were steady, consistent, for over a million years, then all of the sudden, the clay layer.  There is no evidence of anything happening and then all of the sudden, the clay layer and bang, they're gone.  How long did this take to change?3- Walter brought in his dad, Louie Alverez.  He brought in his knowledge of Astrophysics.  He found the layer to be rich in IR (also iron, nickel and cobalt).  It contained over 30 X the amount in surrounding rock (measured from the clay at Gubbio).   Could it come from an Asteroid.  He hypothesized that the IR would be spread all over the world as a blanket.  So he could calc. The amount that was laid down all over Earth.  Knowing the amount that is in Asteroids and Comets, they can calc. The size of the Asteroid.  5- Texas on the Brazos River.  65 my this was the bottom of a sea.  We found, Allen Hildebrand, strange sed deposits across the basin.  7 million years of boring mud there.  This was under water.  Then suddenly, we see the mud got eroded.  Suddenly, there were huge boulders in the mud.  Only a giant Tsunami could do this. 6- Haiti: Report of volcanic rocks.  They were actually ejecta full of shocked qtr and spherules.  They were also full of melted rocks called tektites.   7- From Jan Smit: The boundary clay has two parts: lower layer - just 2-3 mm.  It's the most enriched in IR, nickel, FE, and cobalt.  Also has spherules (crystalline and .5 mm).  Remains of micro Tektites.  Also has the shocked quartz.  Highly diagnostic from shock pressures.  9- Shocked minerals are diagnostic of impacts 10- In 2019 in North Dakota, a new discovery - The Tanis (fossil) site.  Evidence of a tsunami deposit.  Has rocks with 3 distinct fish fossils - paddlefish, sturgeon, and ammonites. They pulled gills out of the fish and found a lot of tektites inside the gills - they were swallowing them while still alive.

Drew Myers, speaker, podcast host, and author, shares his journey from failure to success and inspires others to live bold, adventurous, and intentional lives.When Drew Myers walked away from his last “real” job, he put a pen to paper and realized that he had the embarrassing distinction of having 11 jobs since graduating from college…11 years ago. That's right … he had 11 jobs in 11 years.At first, he looked at this “accomplishment” as a monumental failure. He felt like a bona fide loser, and started asking self-defeating questions. The main one: “What the hell is wrong with me?!?!?!?”Then, the smoke cleared and his confidence started to return. He kept his heart open for his next opportunity and/or adventure. Well, it found him.After a lot of discussion and prayer, he decided to finally embrace the gift that God gave him and inspire others to look at life a little differently. He started writing and speaking, which evolved into his podcast series, Defining Audacity. His three podcasts celebrate the amazing power of story.As a speaker, Drew reiterates how important our stories are – the past, present and the future … the good, the bad and the ugly. He reminds his audiences that life is short and inspires them to start making the important things important.Drew has a bachelor's degree in Mass Communications with an emphasis in Journalism. He also has a master's degree in Educational Administration. Probably his most impactful on-the-job training came as a college football coach and recruiting coordinator for a major Division I football program (Go Frogs!). His favorite title is “Dad,” and he lives in Rainbow, Texas, on the banks of the Brazos River.To learn more and connect with Drew, go to www.drewmyers.life.Finish Your Racehttps://businessinnovatorsradio.com/finish-your-race/Source: https://businessinnovatorsradio.com/drew-myers-speaker-podcaster-author-on-how-to-live-a-bold-adventurous-and-intentional-life

From the mind of Ashley Bean Thornton and the actors of Wild Imaginings comes Fantastical History of Waco! 1910 to 1920 were years of turmoil in Mexico. Revolutionaries fought to overthrow the regime of Porfirio Diaz and then fought among themselves to establish a new government. Thousands of Mexicans immigrated to Texas fleeing the war. Most of the immigrants had almost no money and often had no choice but to settle in what some would call disreputable neighborhoods. And a great many of these immigrants found themselves in none other than little Waco-town. In Waco, the so-called disreputable neighborhood where they ended up settling was the neighborhood between Second Street and the Brazos River. Once known as “The Reservation” or “Two Street,” it was the former location of Waco's notorious legalized red-light district. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

We have started a new YouTube channel called Suspense Video, where this interview is also posted. We are releasing the audio of this interview on our podcast. Charlaine Harris was born in the Mississippi Delta. Her father was a farmer and then a school principal, and her mother was a librarian. Charlaine was educated at public schools and attended Rhodes College in Memphis, TN. Two thousand twenty-one will mark Charlaine's fortieth year as a published writer. She has written two stand-alones, and her series include the Aurora Teagarden mysteries, the Lily Bard mysteries, the Sookie Stackhouse urban fantasies, the Harper Connelly urban fantasies, the Midnight, Texas novels, the Cemetery Girl graphic novels (with Christopher Golden), and the Gunnie Rose books, set in an alternate history America. Charlaine has also written many short stories, and together with Toni L.P. Kelner she edited seven themed anthologies (and had great fun). The television series “True Blood” was based on Charlaine's Sookie Stackhouse novels. Hallmark Movies and Mysteries is still showing a series of movies created about the Aurora Teagarden character, and for two seasons “Midnight, Texas” was on the air. Two of her other series are in production. Charlaine belongs to several professional organizations and is an avid reader. She and her husband live on a cliff overlooking the Brazos River with their rescue dogs. Charlaine has the joy of being a grandmother, and she attends the Episcopalian church.

I talk about someone I seen around recently alive in person, that tragically passed away on Halloween night. She worked at Goodwill, I would see her when I shopped. I guess she was drinking or something and somehow crashed into the Brazos River in Richmond TX. I pray comfort for her family and friends. My condolences. I also believe our hope is in Jesus and he can/will raise the dead! Yes ultimately we will receive our new uncorrupt bodies of glory at the final resurrection. But I also believe someone can have a temporal resurrection before then like Lazarus, especially if they died at a young age. I’ve been encouraged by some of the DRT videos by Tyler Johnson & also been listening to praise and worship songs about the joy we have in knowing and believing in Jesus! --- Support this podcast: https://anchor.fm/brannuyu/support

How does forgiveness create transformation? Join us as we gather to reset our new daily rhythm and build resilience during this time of change. Today, I’m excited to have Ron and Beth Hall. Ron Hall’s life was centered around a successful career as an international art dealer and a passion for his Rocky Top ranch on the Brazos River. All this changed in 1998 as a result of an encounter with a homeless man who was threatening to kill everyone in sight in the homeless shelter where Ron had begun to volunteer two weeks earlier. This life-changing encounter, featured on many television and radio shows, inspired Ron to write his first book SAME KIND OF DIFFERENT AS ME, a story of hope and redemption. The word-of-mouth hit became a New York Times platinum bestseller and stayed on the list for more than three and one-half years. In 2007, President Bush appointed Ron to the State Department Cultural Property Committee to advise the President on diplomatic matters regarding international art and antiquities. Currently, Ron is the screenwriter and producer of the movie version of his book SAME KIND OF DIFFERENT AS ME, which can be found on Netflix and Amazon. His new book, Working Our Way Home released Feb. 20 2018. Ron and his wife Beth reside in Dallas where they direct the Same Kind of Different as Me Foundation. I’m happy to have Ron & Beth share how they’re finding Rhythm and Resilience right now, and how we can do the same. I invite you to tune in as we unite as a community. Looking forward to spending time together for some R & R. Join Dr. Michelle, Ron, and Beth as they talk about:  A dream about a homeless man named Denver, who Ron later met and befriended. The gifts of tragedy and friendship. Ron’s non-profit Same Kind of Different as Me Foundation. Holding a positive perspective during COVID-19. The power of forgiveness. Ron & Beth’s love story. Denver’s wisdom on love and God’s grace. Creating the book and movie “Same Kind of Different as Me” to raise awareness for the homeless. The inspiration of Working Our Way Home. Life for Ron pre and post Denver. Personal experience of loneliness and depression.

Old Washington, better known as Washington on the Brazos, began with a ferry crossing on the Brazos River along the La Bahia road. The convention of 1836 would cement Washington's place in Texas history. In an unfinished building, donated to the convention for free, the Texians declared independence, elected a government and drafted a constitution. In this episode you'll hear from Texas Historical Commission site manager Jonathan Failor as he describes what you can see and experience when you explore the Texas revolution at Washington on the Brazos.

Stephen F. Austin chose to set up the capitol of his colony on the banks of the Brazos River where the El Camino Real crossed the river. He envisioned a major metropolitan area as the center of immigrant activity in his colony. He named the town San Felipe. San Felipe de Austin became the second largest town in Texas before Sam Houston ordered it burned in advance of Santa Anna's army in 1836. It was at San Felipe that land titles were issued, commerce thrived and politics was done. Today, it is a very interesting historic site at which you can get a feel for life in pre-revolution Texas. In this episode, learn more about the San Felipe State Historic Site with site manager Bryan McAuley.

When was the last time you experienced true inner stillness or true silence? When I ask this question of most people, they tell me they can’t remember. Join me this week as we stand for a while in the quiet beside the Brazos River and then consider ways of becoming still from the inside out. Stay with me. I think you’ll like what you hear.

This episode of Channel Mastery is quite different than our usual episodes, but I was so impressed with the program my guest leads for Texas Tech University that I wanted to share it with all of you. Jerod Foster is an Associate Professor of Practice in the Department of Journalism and Creative Media Industries at Texas Tech University. He’s also an editorial commercial photographer focusing on outdoor and conservation.   Foster, along with a team of Professor’s of Practice, lead an adventure media course and program at Texas Tech University designed to take the students out of the classroom and ensure they understand there are career possibilities beyond of the 9-5 desk job. The programs connects students with actual clients in the outdoor industry and allows them to create media through bikepacking, camping and travel. Jerod walks us through how the program initially began, the relationships his students develop with their clients and each other, and shares stories from previous semesters. As we continue to grow and evolve our multi channel strategies as businesses, this is a must listen episode that offers an insider’s look from someone on the ground with the next generation. I thoroughly enjoyed my conversation with Jerod and hope you do too!   Jerod Foster is an editorial and commercial photographer focused on outdoor conservation and travel, as well as an associate professor of practice and assistant dean in the College of Media & Communication at Texas Tech University. His teaching strongly centers on field-based, immersive visual storytelling instruction, and his award-winning Adventure Media course involves taking students on a week-long bikepacking expedition to locations in the southwest to create short-form documentary content for different outlets and organizations in the outdoor recreation and conservation fields. His latest book, Between Two Rivers: Photographs and Poems Between the Brazos and the Rio Grande, is a collaboration with poet John Poch that celebrates the waterways and land between the Rio Grande in Northern New Mexico and the Brazos River exiting into the Gulf of Mexico.

Sad news today, December 3rd. Yesterday, we lost Star Trek giant D.C. Fontana. She passed away peacefully at the age of 80, reportedly after a short illness.As a young girl of 11, Dorothy Catherine Fontana decided she wanted to become a novelist. After getting an Associate Degree as an Executive Secretarial major at Fairleigh Dickinson University, she worked her way up through the typing pool to quickly become the secretary to Samuel Peeples of Screen Gems, then to producer Del Reisman of the Lieutenant where she met and became secretary to that show’s creator Gene Roddenberry.Roddenberry encouraged her writing, and in 1964, she published her first novel, a western Brazos River.After The Lieutenant was canceled, Roddenberry started work on Star Trek, and Fontana came with him. She worked on it since the beginning of development. Associate producer Robert H. Justman encouraged Roddenberry to give her more writing tasks, and Roddenberry assigned her the job of writing the teleplay for an idea he had called "The Day Charlie Became God"—the premise of which she wrote into her reworked script for the episode that became "Charlie X". Other Original Series episodes she had a hand in writing or re-writing:"Tomorrow is Yesterday", "This Side of Paradise", "Friday’s Child", "Journey to Babel", "By Any Other Name", "The Ultimate Computer", "The Enterprise Incident", "That Which Survives", and "The Way to Eden" among others…When Steve Carabatsos, the story editor, left the production midway through the first season, she became the new story editor. At the age of 27, Fontana was the youngest story editor in Hollywood at the time, and also one of the few female staff writers. She left the story editor position before the third season went into production: "I had told Gene Roddenberry that I did not wish to continue on Star Trek as story editor because I wanted to freelance and write for other series. I did, however, want to continue to do scripts for Star Trek. Gene was agreeable to this, and I was given a contract in February of 1968 which called for a guarantee of three scripts, with an option for three more. Whenever anyone has asked why I chose to leave Star Trek's story editorship, I have always given this reply." However, Fontana was very unhappy with the rewrites done on her third season scripts, including "The Enterprise Incident" and "The Way to Eden" (originally submitted as "Joanna" by Fontana, featuring Doctor McCoy's daughter). She was unhappy with the way Roddenberry re-wrote the episodes they wrote together. She used the pseudonym "J. Michael Bingham" for "The Naked Now", as she was especially unhappy with the episode.Another of Fontana's contributions to The Original Series was her discovery and introduction to Gene Roddenberry of costume designer William Ware Theiss. She was an active contributor to the officially endorsed fanzine Inside Star Trek, for which she conducted interviews with several key production staffers, most notably the one with Theiss, the only published one on record.Over the years, she maintained a working relationship with Roddenberry, serving as his assistant on The Questor Tapes, Genesis II, and was hired as story editor and associate producer on Star Trek: The Animated Series. "Yesteryear".She would also work on The Fantastic Journey, Logan’s Run, Six Million Dollar Man, Buck Rogers of the 25th Century, The Waltons, and finally back to Star Trek where she worked up the initial concept for the first episode of Star Trek: The Next Generation: “Encounter at Farpoint” earning a Hugo Award nomination, co-invented the "LCARS" concept, and wrote four other episodes of the season, “The Naked Now”, “Lonely Among Us”, “Too Short a Season”, and “Heart of Glory”, before departing (along with all the Original Series production staff) due to the meddlings of Roddenberry's lawyer, Leonard Maizlish.She also returned to write DS9: "Dax", her last “canon” involvement with Star Trek, in which a great deal of Jadzia Dax' backstory was fleshed out. She would also go on to write for Babylon 5, Earth: Final Conflict, and then wrote the stories of the video games Star Trek: Secret of Vulcan Fury (unreleased), Star Trek: Bridge Commander, Star Trek: Legacy and Star Trek: Tactical Assault all with Derek Chester, and an episode of the fan production Star Trek: New Voyages, the episode "To Serve All My Days" in 2006, on which she worked alongside Jack Treviño and Ethan H. Calk. FictionShe wrote the Star Trek novel “Vulcan's Glory” (1989) and the IDW comic series “Star Trek: Year Four - The Enterprise Experiment”.Leonard Nimoy credited her for expanding Vulcan culture within Star Trek. As Star Trek fans, we owe a tremendous debt to D.C. Fontana. Without her, Star Trek might never have been as successful as it ultimately has been. If you doubt, realize that gene Roddenberry understood it himself. It’s why he kept asking her back and making her story editor and associate producer. She got it. She got it enough to craft integral backstories for, time-tested fictional characters and cultures. She was a bad ass and a trailblazer for other women. Most recently, she worked as a senior lecturer at the American Film Institute, where she mentored aspiring screenwriters, producers, and directors. She is survived by her husband, Oscar-winning visual effects cinematographer Dennis Skotak, and her family asks for memorial donations to be made to the Humane Society, the Best Friends Animal Society, or to the American Film Institute.Until next time, go watch or read something D.C. Fontana had a hand in, and do like Dorothy: Live long. Prosper.

In Unruly Waters: A Social and Environmental History of the Brazos River (University of New Mexico, 2015), Kenna R. Archer examines the history of the Brazos river. The river, which runs from eastern New Mexico through Texas and to the Gulf of Mexico, is not among the most well-known rivers in the nation. Over the past two centuries, despite their best efforts, politicians and engineers have mostly failed at numerous development projects. They have been unable to reroute, dam, contain, or otherwise force the river to confirm to human will. In this new book, Archer examines how the challenges posed by this river are just as important as more famous, successful river projects, to understanding the relationship between American faith in technology and the environment. In this episode, Archer discusses how she came to be interested in this challenging river by making her way from environmental science to history. She tells us about the new book and its insights for understanding our nations long history of trying to impose our will on the environment with technology. Unruly Waters was a finalist for the 2016 Spur Award from the Western Writers of America. Dr. Archer is an instructor of history at Angelo State University. Christine Lamberson is an Assistant Professor of History at Angelo State University. Her research and teaching focuses on 20th-century U.S. political and cultural history. She’s currently working on a book manuscript about the role of violence in shaping U.S. political culture in the 1960s and 1970s. She can be reached at clamberson@angelo.edu.

In Unruly Waters: A Social and Environmental History of the Brazos River (University of New Mexico, 2015), Kenna R. Archer examines the history of the Brazos river. The river, which runs from eastern New Mexico through Texas and to the Gulf of Mexico, is not among the most well-known rivers in the nation. Over the past two centuries, despite their best efforts, politicians and engineers have mostly failed at numerous development projects.

On this episode of Expanded Perspectives the guys start out talking about a mysterious incident from the 1969 Apollo 10 mission. Declassified in 2008, NASA tapes reveal the three-man crew heard weird "outer space type music"  while orbiting the dark side of the moon. For the entire hour, the astronauts discuss and describe the music, even debating whether to inform NASA command. Then, for decades, robot hand design has tended to favor function over form, drawing from the world of man-made machines rather than intricate biology. Zhe Xu and Emanuel Todorov, from the university’s Department of Computer Science & Engineering, began by laser scanning the hand of an actual human skeleton and using the data to 3D-print artificial bones. Then living tissue will grow over the artificial bones. Next, the talk about how recently an anonymous witness claiming to have seen thousands of files relating to “UFO/ET” projects while working at the Naval Telecommunication Center at NAS Moffett field in the late 80s, says he is going public because his secrecy agreement has expired and he would like the government to disclose what they know on about UFOs and aliens. Then, a team from Endurance Exploration Group used a remotely operated vehicle—or ROV—to recover a glass bottle, a chamber pot fragment, and a piece of china that had been sitting on the seabed some 1,000 feet below the Atlantic Ocean's surface for more than 150 years. It was confirmation that they had discovered the resting place of the SS Connaught, a 370-foot-long steamer that sank April 21, 1860, about 100 miles from Boston. Now, Endurance is formulating a plan to retrieve the Connaught's suspected bounty: millions of dollars in gold coins. After the break the boys get into two really interesting lost or hidden treasures. The Spider Rock Treasure and Forrest Fenn's Treasure.  The Spider Rock Treasure starts off by strange discovery of an unusual rock by a man named Stewart who was at the time working on the legendary “Spider Rock” Spanish gold burial in the cedar brakes country near the Salt Fork of the Brazos River in Stonewall County. The Spider Rock map was dug up by a group of treasure hunters in 1908. A blueprint was made of the “map” since the mysterious rock itself has become lost. Out of all the Spanish treasure tales in the North Texas area, the Spider Rock story is probably the most authentic because of the finding of the buried map, number of relics and ancient smelter sites. Many of the clues the map laid out have been discovered and some of the reputed treasure even found. Forrest Fenn's Treasure is something all together different. This is the tale of a modern day hidden treasure that was intentionally buried by the Millionaire. Thanks for listening to Expanded Perspectives, have a great week!

This week's guest is New York Times bestselling author, Ron Hall. Ron Hall’s life was centered around a successful career as an international art dealer and a passion for his Rocky Top ranch on the Brazos River west of Fort Worth, Texas.  All this changed in 1998 as a result of an encounter with a homeless man who was threatening to kill everyone in sight in the homeless shelter where Ron and his wife Deborah had begun to volunteer two weeks earlier.  They had gone there as a result of her prophetic dream they would meet a homeless man who would confound them with his wisdom.   This life changing encounter, featured on many television and radio shows such as CNN, Fox News, and NPR, inspired Ron to write his first book Same Kind of Different As Me, a story of hope and redemption.  The word of mouth hit became a New York Times platinum bestseller and stayed on the list for more than three and a half years. New York Times Bestseller and one of my personal favorites, Same Kind of Different As Me has sold over 1.3 million copies worldwide. This fall, children will be able to enjoy the same heart-tugging story in a wildly unique children’s book… Everybody Can Help Somebody tells the incredible tale of Denver Moore’s life story with his original artwork throughout.
