Reagan Tokes was a 21-year-old college student about to graduate when she was abducted and killed one night. She was leaving her job and heading home, when she was spotted by Brian Golsby–a violent sexual offender who was at the time on parole and wearing an ankle monitor. This monitor should have prevented him from leaving the area he was confined to, but no one was watching him. He had been freely roaming the streets, violating his probation, and committing robberies freely.The Reagan Delaney Tokes Memorial Foundation: https://rdtmf.com/This episode is sponsored by:SKIMS - After you place your order, select "podcast" in the survey and be sure to select our show in the dropdown menu that follows.Wildgrain - promo code: KENDALLRAENutrafol - promo code: KENDALLRAEGrow TherapyMerit Beauty—Check out my foundation: Higher Hope Foundation: https://www.higherhope.org/Watch my documentaries:530 Days: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CjUWkmOjNLkApartment 801: https://bit.ly/2RJ9XXr True Crime with Kendall Rae podcast:Apple Podcasts: https://apple.co/3rks84oSpotify: https://spoti.fi/3jC66prShop my Merch! https://kendallrae.shopCheck out my other podcasts:Mile Higher (True Crime) @milehigherpodYouTube: https://bit.ly/2ROzJcwInstagram: http://instagram.com/milehigherpodThe Sesh (Current events, a little true crime, pop culture, and commentary) https://bit.ly/3Mtoz4X @the_seshpodcastInstagram: https://bit.ly/3a9t6Xr*Follow My Social!* @KendallRaeOnytInstagram: http://instagram.com/kendallraeonytFacebook: https://bit.ly/3kar4NKTrue Crime TikTok: https://bit.ly/3VDbc77Personal TikTok: https://bit.ly/41hmRKgREQUESTS: General case suggestion form: https://zfrmz.com/yg9cuiWjUe2QY3hSC2V0Form for people directly related/close to the victim: https://zfrmz.com/HGu2hZso42aHxARt1i67Join my discord to chat with other viewers about this video, it's free! https://discord.com/invite/an4stY9BCNC O N T A C T:For Business Inquiries - kendallrae@night.coSend me mail: Kendall Rae 8547 E Arapahoe Rd Ste J #233 Greenwood Village, CO 80112

Alka Sharma is a powerful public speaker who motivates audiences to achieve their full potential. As an author of "From Cocoon to CEO Living the Life of Your Dreams", she offers simple, practical advice for success. She also champions women's empowerment, guiding women to embrace their inner strength and confidence. And as a real estate investor, Alka uses smart strategies to build lasting wealth. In episode 639 of the Fraternity Foodie Podcast, we find out what was the cocoon phase of her life and what finally pushed her to transform, what is the first sign that it might be time for a personal reinvention, what self-doubt usually sounds like in our heads—and how can students learn to challenge it, what mindset shift had the biggest impact on her success, how she learned to see challenges as things happening for you rather than to you, how women can step into leadership confidently in spaces that may feel male-dominated or intimidating, what is the biggest myth students believe about investing, how personal branding applies to college students, and what is one story from her book that readers say resonates with them the most. Enjoy!

Welcome to Being a Parent is Hard! In this week's episode we take a deep dive into the anxiety-producing topic of mental health and emotional stressors facing new college students. Whether it's choosing a college, deciding on a major, finding a roommate,, or acclimating to dormitory living, the start of college can be a stressful time. And there's the transition to living away from home which includes self-care, setting appropriate limits for yourself, and managing social and academic pressures--all of which can be a source of stress for new college students. Add to that the ever present stressors connected to alcohol, sex and drugs, and it easy to understand why depression and anxiety are so widespread among our older teens. We hope you can join us as we discuss the pressures and struggles facing our college students and how we as parents can help.Contact us at: beingaparentishardpodcast@gmail.com

My newsletter: https://simonowens.substack.com/   In today's episode, we're speaking to Suryansh Tibarewala, the co-founder of Essentially Sports.   EssentiallySports began in 2014 as a bootstrapped passion project started by Suryansh and his co-founders while they were college students in India. It started as a simple WordPress site focused on tennis and Formula One. The site ran for four to five years with virtually no revenue, relying largely on volunteer contributors.    But then in 2018, the site's founders decided to quit their day jobs and go all in. They expanded the sports coverage, found reliable advertising partners, and eventually grew EssentiallySports into one of the largest sports sites ranked by Comscore – all without raising outside capital.   In a recent interview, Suryansh walked through the site's early days, its expansion into US sports, and its B2B live events strategy.

The boys drink and review Mad Elf, a strong holiday ale, then discuss the idea that college kids are getting dumber. Is that true? We've gone from a time when high schools taught Greek and Latin to a time when colleges teach remedial math. Comedians love to poke fun at the stupidity of our college students with "man on the street" interviews, where college kids can't identify the country to the north. What's happened? For one thing, reading has decline precipitously. For another, many colleges have abandoned entrance requirements. But there's a lot more. * Is it a good thing, as a matter of policy, to have a more educated population? * Is college the right place for everybody? * What's the federal role? There's no question there are uneducated, unprepared, stupid kids in college. But does that mean they're all dumber?

Sunday Evening- College Student Sermons

Happy Holidays Parents! Are you having fun, are you a bit sweaty, dehydrated? Well don’t be, because today we're going to talk about: The mental health pyramid for both kids and adults that is both genius and incredibly simple. Plus, should you be able to choose who you sit next to on a flight and if so, would you ever sit next to a stranger’s baby again? And, do you have shameful little secrets? For some it’s Diet Coke, others the Real Housewives… Amelia it’s a rather quaint delicacy. We talk about the silly habits that get us through the motherhood trenches. Our Recommendations:

The very first film we covered when we expanded beyond our Sex and the Cidiots podcast was one of Rob Reiner's perfect films: "When Harry Met Sally." With Rob and his wife's tragic passing, we've been sad, and his incredible career — In addition to his tremendous reputation as an actual human being — has been on our minds. So, for anyone who feels like just living in this classic film for a bit with two guys being silly talking about it way back in December of *2020,* we thought it might be nice to put it back out. We love that you get cold when it's 71 degrees out, we love that it takes you an hour and a half to order a sandwich, and we love that we get you all to share movie and TV talk with when we're trying to force ourselves to just be a little bit happier than we are. Thanks for listening. For more exclusive movie podcasts and TV shows (and even more, actually), join us at patreon.com/kevinandjon
