The wisdom Butter shares today reminds us of the lasting beauty we can create when we design with intention and heart.Butter's vibrant spirit, generosity, and boundless creativity are as inspiring as her gardens.In this episode, Butter and Anne discuss:Butter's journey into garden designInsights on designing small, traditional gardensTips for seamlessly blending indoor and outdoor spacesEmbracing maximalism in interior design Complete show notes can be found at: @styledbyark.com ___Connect with Butter Wakefield on IG @butterwakefield and at butterwakefield.co.uk You can also learn more about Small Garden Design from Butter Wakefield at Create Academy, UK's most beloved learning platforms.

"We have to stand up for ourselves. We have to advocate for ourselves. We have to be that big voice because nobody else is doing it for us." -Annie   Welcome to the Turmeric & Tequila Podcast™ ! I'm your host, Kristen Olson, and today we have an empowering episode live from the 99ers Bar in Denver. Our guests, Annie and Miranda, are not only passionate athletes but also the pioneering founders of this women's sports bar. Their journey began with a shared mission on the football field in the "Empower Her" league and evolved into a resilient partnership marked by transparency, community support, and unwavering dedication. Tune in as we delve into their challenges transitioning from the corporate world to entrepreneurship, their efforts in the growing Colfax community, and the cultural impact of their establishment. Experience their story of perseverance, 'failing forward,' and building a safe, inclusive space for women's sports. Get ready to be inspired by Annie and Miranda's relentless drive and the vibrant energy of the 99ers Bar on this episode of the Turmeric & Tequila Podcast™.   Time Stamps: 00:00 Success requires unseen hard work and dedication. 05:04 Excelled in multiple sports, faced gender barriers. 06:22 Exploring business events; inspired by grandma's wisdom. 12:30 Sports weave passion into life's fabric. 14:53 Meeting anticipation before Texas tournament participation. 17:22 Intense conversations felt purposeful and transparent. 19:34 Two women collaborating, navigating evolving narratives successfully. 24:08 Stand up, advocate; don't be taken advantage. 26:55 Embrace change; adapt continuously, like sports. 29:23 Proving oneself; overcoming familial and societal doubts. 32:52 Sports unite people, breaking barriers, fostering connections. 36:27 Colfax seeks growth, community, and vibrancy. 40:22 Personal loans drive intentional project, avoid investors. 42:19 Clarity and intention ensure perseverance and success. 46:40 Success is learning throughout the journey. 49:38 Sports provide lifelong connection and fulfillment. 50:42 Luxury's neurofeedback: effective, highly recommended for mental health.   About Annie & Miranda: Annie Weaver and Miranda Spencer first crossed paths on the field, playing for Altitude Sickness, a competitive women's flag football team in Denver. In addition to their roles as teammates, they forged a business partnership driven by a shared mission: to empower women and increase the visibility of women's athletics. Their motivation grew from the shared experience of navigating a sports landscape where opportunities for women were scarce. Both had grown up having to play on boys' teams due to the limited avenues available for girls in sports. The concept of women being professional athletes seemed distant until they witnessed the historic 1999 Women's World Cup game. Yet, even in 2024, it is nearly impossible to find a bar airing women's sports. The 99ers Bar seeks to change this reality. As Denver's first sports bar catering primarily toward women's athletics, it is part of a growing movement of women's sports bars across the country. Here, women's games are not merely broadcasted; they are celebrated. The space is dedicated to empowering all people who may not feel welcome at a traditional sports bar, including the LGBTQ community. No matter who you are or who you're cheering for, at the 99ers Sports Bar everyone is a part of the winning team. https://www.the99erssportsbar.com/ @The99ersSportsBar   Connect with T&T: IG: @TurmericTequila Facebook: @TurmericAndTequila Website: www.TurmericAndTequila.com Host: Kristen Olson IG: @Madonnashero Tik Tok: @Madonnashero Website: www.KOAlliance.com WATCH HERE   MORE LIKE THIS: https://youtu.be/ZCFQSpFoAgI?si=Erg8_2eH8uyEgYZF      https://youtu.be/piCU9JboWuY?si=qLdhFKCGdBzuAeuI https://youtu.be/9Vs2JDzJJXk?si=dpjV31GDqTroUKWH

Donald Trump has been elected as the 47th president of the United States, and many Republicans in down-ballot races also saw some surprising success, including in East Baton Rouge Parish, where Republican Sid Edwards is headed for a runoff in the Mayor-President race against Democratic incumbent Sharon Weston-Broome.Reporters Aidan McCahill and Drew Hawkins join us with more on the results of races and ballot initiatives throughout Louisiana. The last few presidential elections raised concerns about potential violence at the voting booths and on the campaign trail. Over the summer, President-elect Donald Trump experienced two assassination attempts, and on Election Day, multiple polling sites  in swing states received bomb threats. For many, the modern political violence brings to mind the Colfax Massacre in Louisiana. On April 13, 1878, a mob of armed white men attacked the courthouse in Colfax, a town in Grant Parish, killing at least 80 Black men who were exercising their right to vote. Today, we revisit this story, and how two men with personal connections to the tragedy are working to preserve the truth behind what happened. WRKF's Karen Henderson explores what A Reconstruction-era episode of political violence can teach us in today's divisive climate. ___Today's episode of Louisiana Considered was hosted by Adam Vos.

Mayor Mike Johnston just hit his goal of getting 2,000 people off the streets before the end of the year. However, the housing fight is far from over — he's also been hard at work pushing Ballot Issue 2R, which, if passed, would increase the city's sales tax to fund a new affordable housing plan. But with Mile High residents already struggling with the cost of living, is a regressive tax really the answer? The mayor joins host Bree Davies and producer Paul Karolyi for his regular check-in to make his case for higher taxes. Plus, Mayor Mike wades into the minimum wage debate, explains why he thinks adding more police officers to the force will mean fewer people of color being incarcerated, and answers listener questions about crime on Colfax and dangerous drivers.  Are you going to vote for Mayor Johnston's sales tax hike to fund affordable housing?

It's not every day that you get an email from ACLU. If you aren't aware, since being co-founded in part by Hellen Keller in New York City in 1920, the American Civil Liberties Union has been involved in dozens of major cases defending the fundamental civil rights of individuals and causes both popular and very much not so. In 1925, the ACLU represented high school science teacher, John Scopes, in what became known as the Scopes Monkey Trial. Nearly 30 years later they played a significant role in the Brown v Board decision overturning “separate but equal” education for Black and white students. So when they reached out wanting to do a podcast episode with us about the state of Title IX in 2024, I had to say yes. In the past we've done episodes about how classroom teachers can best support LGBTQ students in potentially hostile policy environments, but we are well overdue for a national look at the current rights under Title IX for LGBTQIA+ students, pregnant and parenting students, and for all students facing sex-based harassment and assault and the obligations schools have to protect them.Jennesa Calvo-Friedman is currently a staff attorney at the ACLU. Previously, she was the Marvin M. Karpatkin Fellow with the ACLU's Racial Justice Program. Before joining the ACLU, Calvo-Friedman clerked for the Honorable Gerard E. Lynch of the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Second Circuit and the Honorable Ronnie Abrams of the U.S. District Court for the Southern District of New York. She was the Relman Civil Rights Fellow at the civil rights law firm Relman, Dane & Colfax. Calvo-Friedman received her B.A. from Swarthmore College, and her J.D. from Georgetown University Law Center, where she graduated first in class, was a Public Interest Law Scholar and Executive Editor of the Georgetown Journal on Poverty Law & Policy.US Dept of Education Title IX: https://www.ed.gov/titleixACLU Title IX Fact Sheet: https://www.aclu.org/documents/title-ix-fact-sheetGeneral Resources:https://nwlc.org/respect-students/https://www.equalrights.org/news/new-title-ix-rule-goes-into-effect-protecting-lgbtqi-other-students-but-not-in-all-states/Pregnant and Parenting Students:https://thepregnantscholar.org/titleix-updates-toolkit/https://www.abetterbalance.org/our-issues/students-rights-emerging-workforce/Sexual Assault, Sexual Harassment, and Gender Based Violence:https://www.publicjustice.net/what-we-do/gender-sexual-violence/https://www.advocatesforyouth.org/campaigns/know-your-ix/LGBTQIA+:https://www.glsen.org/title-ixhttps://www.aclu.org/know-your-rights/lgbtq-rights#are-lgbtq-students-protected-from-discrimination-in-schoolshttps://legacy.lambdalegal.org/know-your-rights/article/youth-how-the-law-protects Hosted on Acast.

On the surface, the election of 1872 might seem insignificant in US history; Ulysses Grant easily won reelection to the White House and his Republican Party maintained their dominance in both houses of Congress. In the south, however, the violence that followed the election at the state and local level was an ominous sign that the era of Reconstruction might soon be over. And, according to Dana Bash and her co-author David Fischer, nowhere saw more violence than Louisiana. In this episode, Dana joins Ben & Bob to discuss her new book America's Deadliest Election: The Cautionary Tale of the Most Violent Election in American History, and how the violence that followed the 1872 election in Louisiana – including the slaughter of 150 unarmed black Americans in the small town of Colfax – laid the foundation for the restoration of white supremacy in the south. Dana Bash is chief political correspondent at CNN, where she also anchors Inside Politics and co-anchors State of the Union alongside Jake Tapper. This episode was edited by Gary Fletcher.

In today's episode of I Am Refocused Radio, we dive into one of the most turbulent and consequential periods in American history—the violent 1872 Louisiana gubernatorial election. Joining us are CNN's Chief Political Correspondent Dana Bash and bestselling author David Fisher, who co-wrote the riveting new book America's Deadliest Election. This powerful narrative uncovers the little-known story of an election that pushed democracy to the brink, resulting in hundreds of murders, street warfare, and the rise of white supremacist violence.Through their exploration of the Colfax Massacre—the deadliest incident of racial violence during Reconstruction—and the legal and political fallout that followed, Dana and David reveal unsettling parallels to today's deeply divided political landscape.ABOUT DANA BASH AND HER BOOK AMERICA'S DEADLIEST ELECTION CNN anchor and chief political correspondent Dana Bash has written her first book, AMERICA'S DEADLIEST ELECTION: The Cautionary Tale of the Most Violent Election in American History with bestselling author David Fisher. AMERICA'S DEADLIEST ELECTION recounts the extraordinary election that led to hundreds of murders, warfare in the streets of New Orleans, two governors of Louisiana - and changed the course of politics in our country. The Election of 1872 was the most contentious in American history. After both parties complained of corruption, neither candidate would concede, two governors claimed office and chaos erupted. Rival newspapers engaged in a bitter war of words, politicians plotted to overthrow the government, and their supporters fought in the streets and attempted assassinations. The entire country watched in grim fascination as the wounds of the Civil War were ripped open and the promise of President Grant's Reconstruction faltered in the face of violent resistance and the birth of the Ku Klux Klan. In this riveting book, Dana Bash and David Fisher tell the incredible, little-known story of the election that pushed democracy to the breaking point, and sparked historic events including:The Colfax Massacre, in which at least 150 Black men were killed by white supremacists.The extraordinary train race from New York to New Orleans for control of the state government.The election of the first black Congressman from Louisiana in the face of violent resistance.The Supreme Court ruling that ended Reconstruction and became the foundation of Southern segregation, changing the American legal system for the next centuryAMERICA'S DEADLIEST ELECTION is an eye-opening warning of what's at stake and what it takes to protect our democracy. DANA BASH BIO Dana Bash is CNN's chief political correspondent and the anchor and host of Sunday morning's State of the Union, serving as the network's lead reporter covering campaigns and Congress.

Producer Paul Karolyi and Host Bree Davies are joined by Colorado Community Media's DougCo and Castle Rock reporter McKenna Harord to dig into these stories, plus DCPA's controversial new immersive show, where to find real French bread, and more highs and lows of the week.  Are you down for a Bike Scavenger Hunt? We're partnering with Bike Streets for a two-month bike adventure taking you to some of our favorite spots all over the city. Get the week's clue in our newsletter every Friday, solve the riddle, send us a selfie outside the destination, and you'll be eligible to win some epic prizes!  McKenna mentioned this story about a Castle Rock church wanting to open a homeless shelter and the French bakery in a King Soopers.

Colfax Week Continues! Thanks to our sponsors at the Colfax Ave BID. Denver's never had a ton of great options to eat out late at night — even on Colfax, where hundreds of hungry concert-goers and bar patrons pour out onto the sidewalks after last call. Ever since the pandemic, Denver's night owls have been left hungrier than ever. But a couple of recent announcements offer a glimmer of hope: Rosenberg's Bagels is opening a new late-night slider pop-up, and Little India on 6th Avenue is going 24/7. So host Bree Davies and her favorite late-night dining companion — artistic director for the Sie FilmCenter Keith Garcia — are on today to survey the great local options we do have and share their faves. What's your favorite late-night spot? We want to hear what's good after midnight. Text or leave us a voicemail with your name and neighborhood, and you might hear it on the show: 720-500-5418‬ For even more news from around the city, subscribe to our morning newsletter Hey Denver at denver.citycast.fm.

It's only Wednesday, so we're rounding up a short week of news before the holiday weekend! First, a new investigation from the Denver Post attempts to answer the question of the summer: Why is the Cyclone rollercoaster at Lakeside Amusement Park still closed? Then, concerns linger about just how much money Mayor Johnston is spending on homelessness, especially after SCOTUS's recent ruling on camping bans. Producer Paul Karolyi and host Bree Davies are joined by a returning fave — comedian and Casa Bonita gorilla Joshua Emerson — to discuss all these stories, plus our Rocky Mountain Highs and Lows of the week. Paul promised details on the City of Denver's first-ever drone show for the Fourth of July (July 3, Civic Center Park) and gave a shout out to the Chipotle Boys. Bree mentioned Dozens reopening and Sol Tribe's closure and how to get in touch with tattooists and piercers as they move to new shops. Joshua talked about Denver's dual MVPs, the last days of the Esquire Theatre, and his collaboration “Knowing You, Denver,” opening at the Denver Art Museum this week.  Come party with us on Colfax!
