American Farm Bureau Federation wants to make sure that farm programs remain efficient and effective for farmers despite talks of county office closures and staff layoffs.

Guest: Stephen Wooten, ResearcherAs a parent, there's nothing more important than making sure your child is safe—especially when severe weather threatens their school day. Whether it's the decision to delay, dismiss early, or shelter in place, we rely on school officials to make the right call. But as any parent knows, those decisions aren't always black and white. Should schools be more cautious, or are they sometimes too quick to pull the trigger? And how much say should parents have in the process, if at all? Today on the show, we're chatting with Stephen Wooten, a researcher who has been studying how parents feel about the tough calls schools have to make. As both a Weather Geek and a parent, this conversation hits close to home.Chapters00:00 The Importance of Weather Decisions for Schools02:49 Understanding Parental Perspectives on School Weather Protocols06:07 Research Methodology: Gathering Insights from Parents08:59 Key Findings: Preferences for Early Dismissals11:54 Infrastructure and Safety: Parents' Concerns14:51 Communication: Building Trust Between Schools and Parents17:57 The Role of Social Media in Weather Communication20:55 Future Directions: Enhancing School Weather Protocols23:57 Conclusion: Balancing Safety and Parental PreferencesSee Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

We'd love to have your feedback and ideas for future episodes of Retail Unwrapped. Just text us!Guest: Stephanie Cegielski, VP of Research at ICSC The retail marketplace is in the throes of transformation. Despite the popular narrative of a retail apocalypse, commercial spaces are undergoing a renaissance. If developers and retailers are inventive and bold, store closures offer an opportunity for innovative reinvention. Today, vacancy rates hovering around just 4 percent; there's intense competition for those empty spaces. Scarcity, coupled with high construction costs, has created a competitive marketplace where the retailers that are reimagining traditional can thrive. Join Shelley and Stephanie Cegielski, VP of Research at ICSC as they discuss how successful malls have become vibrant ecosystems as technology hubs, dining spots, entertainment venues, and educational facilities. Listen and learn how retailers can successfully transform by taking advantage of new lease structures that have evolved dramatically, with flexible  terms replacing rigid, decade-long commitments. For more strategic insights and compelling content, visit TheRobinReport.com, where you can read, watch, and listen to content from Robin Lewis and other retail industry experts, and be sure to follow us on LinkedIn and Twitter.

The closures are part of a broader plan to eliminate 1,200 underperforming stores nationwide over the next several years, with locations in 33 states slated for closure.The pharmacy giant, which operates approximately 8,500 stores across the U.S., has acknowledged that nearly a quarter of its locations are not profitable. By 2027, roughly one in seven Walgreens stores will have closed, mirroring similar downsizing efforts by competitors like CVS, which recently completed a plan to shutter 900 locations.California will see significant store closures, with more locations to close than any other state.

The Cuvers. Hendrik Cuver and his wife Amber Cuver, from CuVer Brewery in Windsor, join Steve Jaxon and Herlinda Heras on Brew Ha Ha today. They are here to talk about their Windsor, California brewery where they specialize in Belgian beer. Hendrik was on this episode of Brew Ha Ha back on September 16, 2021, when they were just opening the brewery. He was also on this episode on May 5, 2022, a year and a half later. Also today, Harry Duke will be calling in live from Russian River Brewing Co. in Windsor. The Pliny the Younger public event is in full swing there. His portion of this live radio show will be on this separate podcast episode page, to allow each guest to have their own audio and podcast indexing. Cuver's Origin Hendrick and his father were used to drinking Belgian beers when they immigrated to California in 2012. A year later they started home brewing in order to have the beer that they wanted. They continued doing that while Hendrick was back in Belgium getting his Master's degrees in Biochemistry. Then when St. Florian's brewery came up for sale, they made the purchase. The history of Cuver Brewery and the two families that founded it are closely intertwined. Hendrick invited his fiancée Amber and her family to meet his family at Thanksgiving. Amber's father Reed Cushing became a partner in the brewery. When Hendrick and Amber got married, they changed their surnames to Cuver, derived from combining Cushing and Verspecht. Read the whole story on the Cuver website, on this page.
