Dana Barker works a few jobs and wears a lot of hats - now add dancing to that! This Auburn University senior technical analyst and fill-in TV meteorologist (for stations like WTVM in his hometown of Columbus GA) also stays busy as a football ref and hockey PA announcer for the Columbus River Dragons, who he's representing in the upcoming "Dancing Stars of Columbus," the biggest local fundraiser for the Alzheimer's Association. We talk on this episode about his many roles and how fitness/exercise is a part of those. (2:41) Dana says he's out of his "comfort zip code" learning a dance for this Thursday night's gala. He's been sweating quite a bit while learning/practicing his 90 second routine with pro Tracie Chamblee, who was my partner when I was a "dancing star" 2 years ago. The most important part is raising money for Alzheimer's research and caregivers. You can support Dana or others by giving at this link: https://act.alz.org/site/TR/Gala/GA-Georgia?px=24103747&pg=personal&fr_id=18356. (10:16) This former nerd of mathlete (his term) did not play sports growing up, but is involved with them now like being an experienced ref for high school football - which his broadcast career has helped him with a key part of that job...communication. This president of the local AHSAA association, covering schools in East Alabama, also gets in tens of thousands of steps during each football game as a white hat. It sometimes has to dance on the football field to keep from being run over. (22:04) Dana has also become a student of the game of hockey that he loves now. The longtime PA announcer and DJ for the Columbus River Dragons (formerly the Cottonmouths) talks about why this sport on the ice has hung around this part of Georgia for three decades now. (27:17) This scientist may have the strongest passion though for weather and forecasting! He tells a story about storm chasing and getting close to a funnel 4+ years ago in Eufaula AL. Dana also talks about how the 2019 deadly tornado in Beauregard AL (23 people dead) changed his mindset from working severe weather as an adrenaline rush to a real focus on being a service and saving lives. (37:40) Now, dancing Dana is nervous and excited to hit the dance floor, giving back in the city of Columbus GA where he has deep roots. I close out the pod episode in prayer.

Kelly J. Ford has earned wide critical acclaim for her gritty novels of queer Southern suspense ever since the release of her award-winning debut, Cottonmouths, a Los Angeles Review Best Book of the year, followed by Real Bad Things, which critic Jon Land called “an outstanding literary crime thriller in all respects.” Ford, who is Southern by several generations and grew up in the foothills of the Ozarks, says that “Arkansas is in my roots and made me who I am.”  Ford returns to the rural South for the setting of her third novel, THE HUNT, which Thomas & Mercer will publish on July 25, 2023. Partly set at a plastics factory similar to where she worked as a press operator in college, the story centers on blue collar workers in a small, insular town. It was important to her to highlight family influences and circumstances that can potentially lead people to become accidental criminals, or to be perceived as such due to bias within the criminal justice system.  Kelly shared in an interview for CrimeReads: “Everything I write seems to come from a nugget of my Arkansas upbringing that I can't shake…[like] the sounds of my favorite local radio DJ revealing the latest clue to the annual Hunt for Golden Egg once Easter rolled around. For some reason, this family-friendly event and associated clues filtered through my mind and ears as creepy. I never even went on a hunt. As always, I was in the background as an observer, so I could only imagine what it was like. For years, I've been noodling on how to write a story about that feeling I got. THE HUNT is the outcome of all that noodling.” 

Kelly J. Ford discusses the first pages of her latest novel, The Hunt, how she merged the drafts of two unfinished novels to really make the cook, her love of character and place, and the slips of backstory she inserts from the very beginning to spark our curiosity and keep us invested in the story.Ford's first pages can be found here.Help local bookstores and our authors by buying this book on Bookshop.Click here for the audio/video version of this interview.The above link will be available for 48 hours.

From the author of Cottonmouths, a Los Angeles Review Best Book of 2017, comes evocative suspense about the cost of keeping secrets and the dangers of coming home.Beneath the roiling waters of the Arkansas River lie dead men and buried secrets.When Jane Mooney's violent stepfather, Warren, disappeared, most folks in Maud Bottoms, Arkansas, assumed he got drunk and drowned. After all, the river had claimed its share over the years.When Jane confessed to his murder, she should have gone to jail. That's what she wanted. But without a body, the police didn't charge her with the crime. So Jane left for Boston—and took her secrets with her.Twenty-five years later, the river floods and a body surfaces. Talk of Warren's murder grips the town. Now in her forties, Jane returns to Maud Bottoms to reckon with her past: to do jail time, to face her revenge-bent mother, to make things right.But though Jane's homecoming may enlighten some, it could threaten others. Because in this desolate river valley, some secrets are better left undisturbed.Support this show http://supporter.acast.com/houseofmysteryradio.

Summertime means snakebite time, and with it comes the critical decisions pharmacists and clinicians are faced with when choosing antivenins. In this episode, we will look at the differences and similarities between the two latest antivenins for snakebites.   Guest speaker: Philippe Mentler, PharmD, BCPS Consulting Director, Pharmacy Vizient   Moderator: Gretchen Brummel, PharmD, BCPS Pharmacy Executive Director Vizient Center for Pharmacy Practice Excellence   Show Notes: [00:54] A quarter of all snakebites are dry bites [01:24] Venomous snakes are everywhere in the United States except in Alaska and Hawaii [01:24] Most common venomous snakes in North America are pit vipers (rattlesnakes, copperheads, cottonmouths) [02:00] Clinical manifestations of snakebites [02:40] In 2019, American poison control reported more than 4,000 pit viper snakebites [02:55] History of antivenins [03:50] The development of a new antivenin, CroFab [04:55] In 2019, FDA approved Anavip for North American Rattlesnakes, and in April 2021 FDA updated its approval for all North American pit vipers [05:26] Variances between antivenins Anavip and CroFab [06:13] Clinical trials focusing on blood dyscrasias for Anavip and CroFab [07:15] The original approval for Anavip was exclusively in rattlesnakes and did not consider copperheads and cottonmouths because of the limited incidence of blood dyscrasias in those species in the trial [07:58] Cottonmouths and copperheads typically don't cause blood dyscrasias and tissue injury. This was not specifically addressed in the original study. Now, Anavip updated their information to the FDA, and with that the FDA approved antivenin for all pit viper snakes [08:45] Should a hospital carry both products?   [09:25] There's no national guidelines for antivenins. The American Academy of Emergency Medicine published a clinical statement about antivenin drugs, but that's obsolete now that the FDA has updated its antivenin approval   Links | Resources: ANAVIP, crotalidae immune F(ab)2 (Equine): Click here CroFab crotalidae polyvalent immune fab (ovine): Click here American Association of Poison Control Centers: National Poison Data System Click here NCBI: Rattle Snake Toxicity Click here USDA, Forest Service: “Snakes” Click here Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, The National Institute for Occupational Safety and Health: “Venomous Snakes” Click here Alaska Department of Fish and Game: “No snakes in Alaska” Click here   Subscribe Today!

Published on April 7, 2020 by Riverhead Books, How Much of These Hills Is Gold tells the story of two preteen siblings, Lucy and Sam, who awaken to find their father, their only remaining family, dead. Amidst Zhang’s reimagining of the American West in the 19th century, Lucy and Sam must bury their father, make peace with their family’s past, and find their own path through this dangerous and unforgiving land they call home. In her debut novel, Zhang depicts a harrowing story that explores race, gender, family, and the hardships of living in a hostile land. Through a unique and magical writing style, Zhang transports her readers to a time and place that seem oddly familiar but terrifying to behold.

Deep in the Bayou, originates the legend of a mysterious creature. There are more than gators, Cottonmouths, snapping turtles and the giant rat-like Nutria in the swamps. Haunting howls in the middle of the night indicate that something large, wild and scary roams about the mangroves. Tales about this creature have been passed down through the generations. Were these stories created just to scare the children and keep them from wandering into the swamp or to get them to behave? Are these tales just simply made up to explain the disappearance of domestic animals? Join us as we delve into the legend of the Rougarou.
