Co-Hosts Tess Bridgeman and Rachel Goldbrenner are joined by Rebecca Ingber and Brian Finucane to discuss how the Trump administration's campaign of lethal strikes against suspected drug traffickers in the Caribbean and eastern Pacific has escalated and evolved in the year since the strikes began. The conversation examines the administration's legal justifications for the strikes, the potential for escalation to targets on land, and what the creation of Joint Task Force - Western Hemisphere could mean for the campaign's future. This installment is part six of the “Murder on the High Seas” series, produced in collaboration with the Reiss Center on Law and Security.

Hiring gets tough this time of year. Crews are tired, the season is long, and finding great people can feel impossible. But what if the problem isn't the labor market, it's how we're attracting people? In this episode, Brian breaks down a simple hiring roadmap for attracting growth-minded team members through vision, culture, career paths, better job descriptions, and showing people why your company is actually worth joining.
Andy hit the wall this season: two crews running, three jobs in the air, and one guy selling, designing, project managing, and ordering materials for all of it. The choice was simple — go back to one crew or get real help. This week he walks through hiring his first designer/field specialist, the most thorough onboarding day he's ever done, and the weight already lifting off his shoulders before the work has even started. Also in this episode: a tornado that lifted a grill clean out of a grill island (and somehow left the granite alone), the Kenworth still stuck at the paint shop over a mis-cut rear window, the "Little Ripper" shop car that cost a fraction of a work truck, and an honest conversation about boats, cottages, and why he won't buy either until he could light that money on fire without it changing his world.

Crews are working on repairs to the Buffalo Airport's fuel farm circuit system. NFTA's Kelly Khatib tells us about it.
Hour 3 (8.21) L.A. County's own report puts the Paramount-Warner Bros. deal at 4,500 film and TV jobs lost over three years — on top of the 52,000 the region has already shed since 2022. And that's if the studios stay. 8:05 PM — Attention, Angelenos. A report to the Board of Supervisors this week from the county's Department of Economic Opportunity and CVL Economics says the Paramount Skydance–Warner Bros. Discovery merger would cost roughly 4,500 direct film and TV jobs in the county, with more than 10,000 total job-years and billions in economic activity at risk. That's the version where the merged company stays here. David Ellison is threatening to move operations to Texas or Tennessee if Rob Bonta won't come to the table by October 1. Bonta and eleven other attorneys general are suing to block the deal, and trial isn't until March. Then a burglary suspect in a Honda Accord led LAPD for over an hour through the Valley — through a CSUN parking structure, through a gas station, T-boned by an innocent driver in Granada Hills — before pulling a U-turn on the 405 and going head-on into a CHP SUV in North Hills. He ran. He didn't get far. 8:20 PM — Leveling Out: come meet Stu Mundel at Dave & Buster's in Orange. Plus the Los Feliz water main that let go at 11 o'clock last night at Commonwealth and Avocado — a six-inch cast iron line that buckled the sidewalk and flooded a restaurant patio. Crews had it back in service by 8 a.m. LADWP says the city averages two to four of these a day, which is either reassuring or the opposite. 8:35 PM — End of week WHIP. Then the tipping point, and we mean it literally: one survey has the average American leaving about $38 a month in tips they didn't want to leave in the first place, and Toast's data across 171,000 restaurants puts the overall average tip at 18.8%, dropping to 13.7% on takeout. Nearly three-quarters of Americans say they're being asked to tip in more places than five years ago. Skip the tip? We take your calls. Plus another chase, this one out of Woodland Hills. 8:50 PM — SeaWorld San Diego turned its Bayside Amphitheater into a Y2K block party. Ying Yang Twins opened the run, Ginuwine, Bow Wow, E-40, Ashanti and Jordin Sparks followed, and Too $hort and Warren G closed it out — all included with park admission, all going viral on TikTok, all with the bay behind the stage.

94 Major Wildfires Are Burning Across the West—Is This the New Normal? The Western United States is facing a dangerous wildfire crisis. Crews are fighting to protect Big Sur, three fires are burning near Reno with single-digit containment, and 94 large wildfires remain uncontained across the West as of August 11, 2026. From the Northwest and Northern Rockies to California, Nevada and the Southwest, extreme heat, dry conditions and expanding fire activity threaten communities, public health and the environment. Wildfire smoke can travel hundreds of miles, while the economic and human costs continue to mount. What can America do to prevent these disasters? Can better land management, climate action and community preparation make a meaningful difference—or must we adapt to wildfires as the West's new normal? Then, after 24 years on the air, a Bay Area radio host has been laid off. His scathing Facebook post captures the troubling state of today's broadcasting industry.

For the first time in its history, the National Credit Union Administration (NCUA) has zero board members. Not one. Not two. Zero.In this emergency episode, Mark Treichel walks through how the agency got here and, more importantly, what it means for credit unions in the meantime.Kyle Hauptman's six-year term expired in August 2025. Under the Federal Credit Union Act, a board member may keep serving after a term expires until a successor has qualified — which is why Hauptman was able to serve a full year past his expiration date. On August 7, 2026, the Senate confirmed John Crews. Three days later, Hauptman resigned and took the oath for his new post at the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (PCAOB). Crews has been confirmed, but he has not been sworn in — and confirmed is not the same as seated.The finish line is the oath of office, and the oath cannot happen until the commission comes over from the White House with the President's signature. That paperwork routes through NCUA's Sensitive Compartmented Information Facility (SCIF), to the general counsel and chief of staff, and then to a swearing-in ceremony in the NCUA boardroom. Until that happens, the seat is unfilled. Mark's argument: the gap was entirely avoidable. The statute let Hauptman stay. He left anyway.The agency does not stop, because NCUA's delegations of authority were built for exactly this kind of situation. Mark treated the delegations as his operating bible during his 33 years at the agency, and he walks through what they cover and what they do not.What keeps running: examinations and supervision on the normal cycle, findings, Documents of Resolution (DORs), Letters of Understanding and Agreement (LUAs), temporary cease-and-desist orders at the regional director level, charters, and mergers.What stops: rulemaking. Conservatorships and liquidations, which sit with the board. Asset guarantees. Loss resolutions above the delegated dollar thresholds. Appointments, removals, and promotions of senior personnel. Budget changes beyond a narrow reprogramming authority. And appeals that have reached the board level — the last rung of the appeal ladder is dark until a member is sworn in.Mark also addresses the argument some are making that a standing continuity delegation lets the executive director step into the board's shoes. His read: that delegation contemplates a national emergency in which the sitting board members are unable to serve. This is not a national emergency. This is unsigned paperwork — a different thing entirely, and not a basis for staff to exercise authority the Act reserves to the board.Also covered: the quorum question hanging over the 11 final regulations issued just before the departure; the ongoing Todd Harper and Tanya Otsuka litigation and what a win would mean; the Schedule C shuffle underway in the chairman's office; and what an incoming single-member chairman faces walking into an agency that has already lost a large share of its most experienced staff.This is a short-shelf-life episode by design. It may be resolved by the time you hear it. The structural lesson will not be.Credit Union Exam Solutions is a team of former NCUA executives and examiners who help credit unions prepare for, manage, and appeal examinations.

What if the most important photographs taken on a film set aren't of the actors, but of the people behind the camera? This week, Josh Calder sits down with veteran Unit Stills Photographer Jon Platt, whose career has taken him from Second AC and Focus Puller to Camera Operator and, eventually, behind the stills camera. Across nearly four decades, Jon has worked alongside some of the industry's great filmmakers on productions including Black Robe, Strictly Ballroom and Fly Away Home. He shares stories from a life on set, what a Unit Stills Photographer is really looking for, and why understanding crew, timing and set etiquette can be just as important as knowing where to put the camera. We also explore Jon's book, Observations on Set: A Love Letter to the Crews and Craft Behind the Camera, a photographic celebration of the people who make the movies happen.

The Tim Conway Jr Show Hour 1 (8.6) It was a rough morning for LA's pipes. Crews from the Department of Water and Power scrambled to shut down a main break in the Hollywood Hills — no major flooding, but the roadway took a hit — while a second rupture hit Sunset and a geyser erupted on Mango Way in Brentwood. We break down what's actually going on underground and why it keeps happening. Then: hikers at Runyon Canyon are still staring at a two-stall prefab restroom that cost nearly $1 million, craned into place back in February and fenced off ever since. Sinks, lighting, sidewalks — all there. Doors? Locked. Six months and counting. Finally, a lighter one: a fan paid roughly $22,000 at a Phillies charity auction to call the third inning against the Nationals, sat down next to Scott Franzke and Larry Andersen, and sounded so polished the clip went viral. Some people just have the pipes.

A tornado can leave a farm standing and still prevent the next crop from going into the ground. North-central Oklahoma farmer Karen Eifert Jones shares what happened after the April 23 tornado passed over her family's headquarters near Enid and tracked across five of their farms. Barbed wire, lumber, shingles and household belongings covered fields and pastures that needed to be planted within days. Karen explains how more than 150 volunteers, neighbors and emergency crews helped locate equipment, wind-damaged fence and walk fields shoulder to shoulder before the next rain. She also shares practical lessons about disaster donations, community shelters, farm mental health, USDA fence assistance, crop decisions and the local relationships that make agricultural recovery possible. Key takeaways: Tornado debris can create serious hazards for planters, combines, livestock and vehicle tires long after the storm. Local emergency coordinators can help farmers locate highly specialized equipment such as hydraulic wire winders. Flexible cash donations allow trusted local groups to purchase the tools and supplies survivors actually need. Community recovery must address mental health, livestock losses, warning communication, and access to safe shelter. Long-term crop rotations still require flexible decisions based on moisture, weeds, labor, cattle, and planting windows. Detailed timestamped rundown 00:00–02:47 — Episode introduction Dave introduces Karen Eifert Jones and the episode's central story: recovering farmland after a tornado scattered fences, construction material and household debris across multiple farms.02:47–03:55 — What is growing on the farm Karen reviews millet planting, completed canola harvest, nearly completed wheat harvest, full-season corn, soybeans, grain sorghum, double-crop soybeans and the cattle operation.03:55–05:04 — Making annual crop decisions The discussion turns to balancing a five-year operating plan with short-term field conditions, rainfall and individual farm constraints.05:04–06:52 — Why millet fits one difficult farm Karen explains how access limitations make hay the only practical option on one rented farm and why millet has become its most profitable use.06:52–07:11 — Hay sales build new relationships A wheat field overtaken by rye was harvested as hay, creating a relationship with a drought-stricken customer who later subleased pasture.07:11–08:49 — Canola's place in the rotation Canola may only break even in some years, but Karen values it as a rotation tool that can improve the following wheat crop.08:49–09:33 — Wheat and canola yield losses Both crops produced roughly one-quarter of expected yields because the moisture needed during production did not arrive.09:33–10:57 — Why the farm still double-crops Double-cropping helps keep the soil covered, manage weeds and provide an opportunity for revenue rather than leaving ground idle.10:57–12:06 — Soybeans, sorghum and weed pressure Moisture, broadleaf weeds, grasses and Johnson grass influence which crop goes into each field.12:06–12:56 — Why double-crop corn does not fit The family has considered double-crop corn but regards the timing and production potential as too marginal.12:16–12:56 — Connecting crops and cattle Corn and sorghum residue can be grazed, so water access, fencing and planned cattle locations also influence crop choice.13:03–15:10 — Buying equipment versus hiring custom work Karen describes how labor availability, machinery costs, custom rates and cooperation with neighboring operations shape equipment decisions.15:10–16:34 — Preparing for generational transition Her son is working as an hourly employee before purchasing shares in the operation, while the family expands primarily through rented land.16:44–19:23 — Remembering the April storm Dave recounts watching tornadoes near Braman and Enid before realizing one was approaching Karen's farm and Vance Air Force Base.19:23–20:28 — Karen watches from Stillwater Karen was attending an Oklahoma State University event and sheltered in the student union after discovering her friend's hotel lacked an adequate tornado plan.20:28–21:43 — The tornado crosses the operation A neighbor sent video showing the funnel over Karen's house. The path crossed the headquarters and continued along five farms.21:43–22:56 — Debris blocks spring planting Four fallow farms were filled with wire and wreckage just as full-season planting needed to begin.22:56–24:29 — The search for wire winders After two unsuccessful days, Karen asked the local emergency command center for help locating a hydraulic wire winder. Within minutes, one was found—and a neighbor located another.24:29–25:06 — One request produces two crews Karen's church planned to send volunteers, while emergency coordinators arranged an additional crew.25:06–26:29 — Walking fields shoulder to shoulder Volunteers searched the ground systematically. One 20-acre field contained so much material that workers could barely take a step without encountering debris.25:30–26:29 — Returning personal belongings Crews recovered photographs, checks, certificates and named clothing that could be cleaned and returned to tornado survivors.26:29–27:29 — More than 150 people volunteer Volunteers came from Enid, Tulsa, Wichita, Oklahoma City, Woodward and surrounding communities, representing many ages and occupations.27:29–28:13 — The Oklahoma Standard in action The hosts reflect on the rural instinct to ask what work needs to be done and then show up to do it.28:13–28:59 — Clearing the final field before rain A second crew completed debris removal around 3 p.m. The planter was already waiting, and the field was planted by 5 p.m.29:14–30:06 — A growing crop becomes a thank-you Karen's son arranged for a roadside banner thanking donors and volunteers. Grain sorghum growing behind it demonstrates what their work made possible.30:08–32:45 — Community shelters and warning access Karen argues for more public shelter options, particularly for lower-income residents, immigrants, apartment residents and people who may not receive or understand warnings.32:45–34:41 — Livestock losses and mental health The group discusses the emotional consequences of losing animals, homes and personal security, including anxiety that can return during later storms.34:41–35:34 — Surviving more than one disaster Karen recounts the story of an elderly couple who lost a home in the 1973 Enid flood and then lost its replacement in the 2026 tornado.35:34–37:51 — What disaster survivors really need Water, snacks, gloves and flashlights were useful, but excess or poorly matched donations created storage and distribution challenges.37:51–38:31 — Cash purchases specialized equipment Local coordinators used donated funds to buy tow-behind magnetic sweepers for collecting nails and other metal from fields and properties.38:31–40:10 — Keep donations close to the community Karen recommends working through trusted local organizations, churches, Extension offices or other groups that understand immediate needs.40:10–40:39 — Leftover supplies become emergency trailers Unused water, first-aid materials, gloves and tools were stored in trailers that can be deployed during the next tornado, fire or emergency.41:14–41:58 — USDA assistance for damaged fencing Karen used her previous USDA experience to help neighbors find the appropriate forms and ask about cost-share support.41:58–43:02 — Previewing an Enid canola meeting The conversation shifts to an Aug. 4 producer meeting focused on canola production, harvest methods, varieties and market opportunities.43:02–44:16 — Comparing canola harvest strategies Wind damaged windrowed canola, while rain complicated desiccation, illustrating that no harvest approach eliminates every weather risk.44:16–45:40 — Canola's renewable-fuel market Karen explains that much of the region's canola enters a specialized market connected to renewable jet fuel, carbon ratings and energy policy.45:40–46:14 — Final reflections The hosts thank Karen for sharing both the tornado recovery story and her perspective on the future of canola.46:14–46:56 — Closing and listener invitation Dave directs listeners to Red Dirt Agronomy for guest information, resources and future episodes.

In this episode, Alyssia Crews, MBA, FACHE, Vice President of Orlando Health Cancer Institute, joins the podcast to discuss expanding access to cancer care and improving clinical access for patients across the communities the institute serves. She shares insights on addressing workforce and staffing challenges, as well as the key operational and strategic issues oncology leaders are navigating to deliver high-quality, patient-centered care in a rapidly evolving healthcare landscape.
www.marktreichel.comhttps://www.linkedin.com/in/mark-treichel/ In this episode, Mark Treichel sits down with Lenwood Brooks — former chief of staff to NCUA Chairman Rodney Hood, former Director of Government and Industry Relations at the Federal Home Loan Bank of Dallas, and now a managing director at Performance Trust Capital Partners — for a wide-ranging conversation about what happens to NCUA next.Lenwood walks through the mechanics of Senate confirmation for nominee John Crews, including why the shift to en bloc cloture votes has compressed a process that took Kyle Hauptman four or five months down to a matter of weeks. He explains why confirming Crews is a step toward resolving the quorum question but not the resolution — the agency stays under what he calls a gray cloud until the board reaches at least two members or a court rules.The conversation then turns to what recent removal-power litigation means in practice. If the reasoning in the Federal Trade Commission case holds, the six-year NCUA board term no longer functions as designed. Board seats become tied to a presidential administration, and Lenwood's advice to credit unions is direct: prepare for the NCUA to run a lot more like the Office of the Comptroller of the Currency, with drastic swings in supervisory priorities between administrations.Mark and Lenwood also cover what it is like to arrive at NCUA as a political appointee amid an experienced career staff, why career staff become a force multiplier once they trust you, the trend of NCUA board members coming out of Senate Banking Committee staff rather than from credit unions, and the balance sheet lesson from March 2023 — that chasing yield and duration alone gives you a single-dimension picture of a multi-dimension problem.Finally, Lenwood offers the observation credit union leaders will recognize immediately: examiners often do not appreciate that a passing comment can set off a fire drill in the C-suite that takes weeks to resolve. A whisper from an examiner comes across as a yell.Reach Lenwood Brooks at lbrooks@performancetrust.com.

Two firefighters have been killed after their helicopters collided while battling a wildfire west of Athens, as crews across Europe and North America confront one of the northern hemisphere's busiest wildfire seasons. Australia is now joining that international response, sending aircraft and specialist crews to France while continuing to assist firefighting efforts across North America.
⚡ Pete rode out the storm glamping in his own driveway—Starlink dish up, house running off his truck—while much of Lake Forest sat in the dark with no power, internet, or reliable cell service. He could communicate. The City couldn't.Rick Lesser joins from his office (Comcast's out at the condo) to work through what happened Monday night—and what didn't. One City advisory went out at 3:03 PM, before the worst hit. Then silence, as limbs came down and live wires hit residential streets.The morning after, Pete goes to the Chamber's mayor's breakfast looking for one thing: a straight answer. Is there a disaster plan? "We don't like to call it a plan. We like to call it a playbook." Yes or no—do you have one? "We got a draft."From there it opens up: the council-manager form of government and who's actually accountable when the lights go out. Smart911—which the City's own website says sends emergency texts, emails, and phone calls—and which, when Pete asked a few thousand local Facebook followers whether anyone got one during the storm, produced a simple answer: no one reported getting one. The episode also digs into cell coverage, the City apps rolled out with fanfare that went quiet the one night they were needed, and whether something as simple as a group text could have made the difference.Public Works and the first responders worked through the night, and they get their due here. This was never about the crews clearing the roads. It's about who's standing at the front of the room when it matters.The mayor? The city manager? The communications director? Or is nobody in charge?We document. You decide.
The U.S. Forest Service says wildfires have burned nearly 73,000 acres in the U.S. and Canada. The agency says about 1,000 personnel are working on the fires, which are about 60 percent contained. Officials say crews are monitoring the Chub Fire southwest of Crane Lake and the Camp Fire northeast of Ely. They're also watching for new fires that may have started from recent lightning strikes.Minnesota economic development officials say the tax that funds the state's paid family and medical leave program will stay flat for 2027. The Department of Employment and Economic Development says the existing 0.88 percent payroll tax should be enough to cover claims next year. The tax is split between workers and employers. The department says 75,000 people have used the program so far this year, with benefits costing about $600 million.The Minnesota Department of Health says a large multistate outbreak of gastrointestinal illness caused by the cyclospora parasite has not been linked to Minnesota. Health officials say Minnesota has reported 98 cases of cyclosporiasis since early May, which is in line with what the state typically sees during the summer. The department says it is not observing any concerning trends. There is currently no indication that contaminated items tied to the outbreak were distributed in Minnesota.A St. Paul iron foundry is shutting down after years of pressure from community members and regulators. Northern Iron, in the Payne-Phalen neighborhood, has faced fines from the Minnesota Pollution Control Agency over excessive air pollution. Regulators took the foundry to court to try to revoke its permit. Northern Iron says uncertainty over whether it would be allowed to keep operating forced it to close, and foundry leaders say they plan to fully close the facility by the end of the year.
Crews are battling to control wildfires that have spread rapidly across parts of Europe, forcing the evacuation of more than 330,000 people in France, Spain and Portugal. Fifteen deaths have been reported and nearly half a million acres have burned. The scope and speed of the fires are pushing emergency response systems to their limits.

Join host Taylor Inman for 4 major stories shaping Northwest Montana - from Glacier's Logan Pass shuttle system holding steady through peak season to a bison baby boom on the Flathead Reservation.Glacier's new Logan Pass shuttle system is running full since the Highline Trail opened, according to Superintendent David Roemer. The park now limits parking to three hours at Logan Pass and thirty minutes at Oberlin Bend, ticketing vehicles that overstay.A commercial truck tipped into a ditch in Evergreen Monday night, spilling an estimated 4,000 gallons of asphalt seal coat. Crews cleared most of the liquid within hours, though a damaged utility pedestal knocked out internet and phone service in the area."It's a big deal" - that's how fisheries biologist Kenny Briedinger describes the discovery of nonnative brown trout in Ashley Lake and Church Slough. Officials believe the fish were illegally introduced and are asking anglers to report any brown trout caught upstream of the SKQ Dam.Bison calves known as "red dogs" are roaming the Flathead Reservation's Bison Range this summer, part of a herd of 350 adults and 80 calves. Biologist Shannon Clairmont says the herd descends directly from bison the Confederated Salish and Kootenai Tribes once managed before the U.S. government forced their removal.Northwest Montana deserves strong news reporting.

www.marktreichel.comhttps://www.linkedin.com/in/mark-treichel/State-level interchange legislation is no longer a one-state story, and a federal preemption ruling has left credit unions on opposite sides of a line they did not draw. Mark Treichel, former Executive Director of the National Credit Union Administration (NCUA), talks with Jason Stverak, Chief Advocacy Officer of the Defense Credit Union Council (DCUC), about where interchange fights stand, what the NCUA board vacancies mean heading into budget season, and why every credit union should have a government shutdown plan ready before the end of September. Interchange at the state levelMassachusetts convened a commission to study interchange and has taken input from retailers, credit unions, card companies, and processors across multiple hearings — Jason testified at the third. Illinois passed an interchange law that has been delayed a year and is now in the courts. A federal judge, relying on the Office of the Comptroller of the Currency (OCC) position on federal preemption, ruled the law does not reach card networks, federally chartered banks, or other federally chartered savings institutions — but does reach federally chartered credit unions, state-chartered credit unions, and state-chartered banks. The NCUA has since moved on an interim rule extending the same exemption to federally chartered credit unions, with the comment period recently closed.That leaves state-chartered institutions carrying a compliance burden their federally chartered competitors do not. Jason's concern is structural: the strength of the credit union movement has always been the dual charter system, and a rule that effectively tells institutions to change charters to escape paperwork erodes it. Colorado's legislature passed an interchange bill that the governor vetoed; the issue has been introduced in a number of other states and in Puerto Rico. As more states pass their own versions, credit unions face the prospect of multiple interchange payment networks — and members who care about one thing only: whether the card works where they are. Marshall-Durbin in WashingtonThe Marshall-Durbin interchange legislation remains contained, but not dead. DCUC is watching the National Defense Authorization Act (NDAA), floor amendments, and any must-pass vehicle that could carry it. Jason's framing: the worry is not a fair fight, it is a provision slipping into a bill at two in the morning in December.For defense credit unions, the stakes are specific. Interchange revenue funds the ability to extend credit to eighteen-year-old service members with no credit history — a $1,000 card to fix a car or buy groceries until payday. Take that away and the alternative is the payday lender outside the front gate. The NCUA boardChairman Kyle Hauptman is set to depart. John Crews has had his nomination hearing. As of August 1, Hauptman will have served a year past the end of his term. The Senate has roughly three weeks before its August recess, and the practical hope is that a nominee package moves — or that Crews is processed individually before the August 6 recess. Mark's point from the Executive Director's chair: get him seated in August, because the budget is coming, and a new board member approving a budget in his second month is not the scenario that produces an optimal budget.Separately, Todd Harper and Tanya Otsuka are proceeding with their court case following the Supreme Court's decision in Trump v. Slaughter, which gave the president broad removal authority over independent agency heads with the Federal Reserve excepted. Their argument is that Slaughter is specific to the Federal Trade Commission. The case sits in the D.C. Circuit and may or may not resolve this year. Coast Guard pay and shutdown readinessThe Coast Guard is part of the military but is funded through the Department of Homeland Security (DHS), not the Department of Defense, absent a declared war. During the shutdowns, that meant Coast Guard members went unpaid. Credit unions filled the gap — Keesler Federal Credit Union committed its reserves to cover member paychecks; others set up food banks. Jason notes the balance-sheet reality: money going out increases, money coming in decreases, and examiners will see the reserve position. He credits the NCUA for working with credit unions through it.Looking ahead: no spending bills have been signed, and funding runs out September 30 at midnight. DCUC has already told its members to dust off their shutdown plans, because by mid-September members will be asking about mortgages and tuition, and members of Congress will be asking what programs are in place. Jackson Area and the banking tradesOn the alleged fraud at Jackson Area Federal Credit Union, both agree the issues are serious and warrant investigation, and that the industry should lead on governance, board training, and internal controls rather than wait to be led. What draws Jason's objection is the speed with which the banking trades pushed the story into congressional inboxes as evidence of an industry-wide problem, paired with the familiar asks: hearings, Form 990 filings, tax status. Mark adds a point from the record — the October 2025 Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (FDIC) Inspector General report on Pulaski Savings Bank, a $45 million institution with two sets of books and a loss in the range of $28 to $30 million, a larger percentage loss than Jackson Area. Both push toward the same conclusion: identify the problem, fix the problem, and ask the board-level questions — why can one person control both inflow and outflow, and are we getting the audit we should be getting rather than the audit we are required to get? About DCUCNow in its 63rd year, DCUC was created as a council under CUNA to represent credit unions on military bases and has expanded well beyond them. Membership is open to any credit union — teacher, firefighter, oil and gas, and traditional charters are all in the mix. Dues are capped at $22,500 for the largest institutions, and the vast majority of members pay less than $1,000. The annual meeting runs August 3–6 in Aventura, Florida, with regional sub-councils bringing programming closer to members who cannot travel.

Jay Bacrania, growth consultant at Crews & co., returns for another session of "Coaching with Jay," this time focusing on how leadership has to change as a company grows. Jay and Dave discuss unique ability, flow state, and the personal calendar exercise that helps founders see what fills them up versus what drains them. They talk through the crossroads every owner hits when the company starts to outgrow its leader, including whether to stay the right size, grind through, grow into the next seat, or bring in someone else. Jay also covers the shift from operator to leader and when to hire people who know more than you. Links: Jay's LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/jaybacrania/ Jay's Email: jay@crewsandco.com
Neil Simons of RC Mowers joins Griffin to talk remote-controlled and autonomous mowers, and how they tackle the labor and safety problems every facilities team faces.Takeaways:RC vs. autonomous: RC mowers keep an operator safely off steep slopes; autonomous mowers run on their own and lay down clean commercial stripes — one operator can run several at once.Labor multiplier, not job-killer: No customer has cut staff. Crews get freed from open-field mowing to focus on higher-value work like trimming, edging, and pruning.Safety first: Removing operators from machines on dangerous slopes prevents accidents. Neil's advice — listen to the boots on the ground; they know when a job feels unsafe.Curb appeal counts: Well-kept grounds shape first impressions for campus tours, recruiting, and hiring.What's next: AI and better cameras will let mowers cut within inches of trees and fences, closing today's precision gap.Resources:RCMowers WebsiteLinkedInRCMowers YouTube

More than 700 firefighters from across the country are working to contain wildfires burning in and near the Boundary Waters Canoe Area Wilderness. Storms Monday brought rain to the fire zone, but also lightning and gusty winds. Crews are working to assess and protect structures near two large fires northwest of Ely and are preparing the Echo Trail as a control line. Forest Service officials say crews quickly responded to three new lightning-caused fires reported Sunday.A U.S. District judge has dismissed the Trump administration's lawsuits against state and local governments over what the Justice Department describes as “sanctuary city policies.” The Trump administration argued policies prohibiting local authorities from enforcing federal immigration law are unconstitutional. Chief Judge Eric Tostrud dismissed claims against the state, Minneapolis, St. Paul, Hennepin County Sheriff Dawanna Witt and Attorney General Keith Ellison.The Minnesota Department of Agriculture is seeking public feedback on the social and economic impacts of large-scale dairies in the state. That follows the Minnesota Pollution Control Agency's decision not to require an environmental impact statement for a proposed dairy expansion near Morris. The expansion would make it the state's largest dairy. The Department of Agriculture will host two online public meetings Tuesday, July 28, and will accept online comments through Oct. 1.A St. Paul iron foundry is due in court Tuesday as state regulators try to revoke its permit over pollution concerns. The Minnesota Pollution Control Agency says Northern Iron removed some pollution control equipment in 2023, violating its permit. The agency says that could have led to more pollution in the Payne-Phalen neighborhood. Foundry leaders say a shutdown is unnecessary and that the foundry is not violating its permit.
What starts as a conversation about Missouri float trips quickly spirals into absolute Rizz Show nonsense. The gang debates the best rivers to float, tells stories about cliff jumping, beer helmets, and questionable rafting decisions before taking a hard left into one of the weirdest mornings we've had in a while.Then...the studio fire alarm goes off.In real time, the crew debates whether to abandon the building, compares themselves to the captain of the Costa Concordia, questions maritime law, and somehow turns an emergency evacuation into comedy. Fortunately, everyone survives the "catastrophe" and returns to the studio with nothing more than bruised egos and a fresh appreciation for construction dust.As if that wasn't enough, Learn celebrates National Hot Dog Day with Steve's Hot Dogs, the crew argues about the proper way to eat a hot dog without looking ridiculous, and everyone collectively decides the word "glizzy" deserves to disappear forever.Missouri news keeps the chaos rolling as the crew debates higher interstate speed limits, gets completely lost trying to figure out daylight saving time, celebrates Lion's Choice landing on USA Today's best regional fast food list, and somehow manages to make basic legislation sound impossibly confusing.Meanwhile, Moon discovers an actual beetle inside a bag of coffee, decides to brew it anyway, and accidentally sends everyone into a discussion about FDA limits on insect parts in food that absolutely nobody asked for but everyone somehow needed.Add in bizarre lawsuits, White Castle stories, documentaries, celebrity tangents, weird news, listener emails, and the usual sarcastic back-and-forth, and you've got another completely normal day...by Rizz Show standards.Then the building catches everyone's attention with a fire alarm, Rizz refuses to evacuate because apparently radio hosts go down with the ship, and somehow the conversation spirals into MySpace, CDs making a comeback, William Shatner becoming a metal frontman at 95, and why nobody under 25 knows who Hole is anymore.Just another Tuesday.This episode starts with excitement surrounding the upcoming Super Troopers 3 as the Broken Lizard crew prepares to visit the studio, giving everyone an excuse to geek out over one of the greatest comedy franchises ever made. Before they arrive, the crew jumps into Crap on Celebrities, where nostalgia absolutely takes over.Could MySpace actually deserve more respect than it gets? Turns out the platform helped launch artists like Taylor Swift, Katy Perry, Adele, and even Dane Cook before social media became the attention economy we know today. That naturally leads into everyone's embarrassing MySpace memories, Top 8 drama, party bulletins, and the strange realization that we all willingly learned HTML just to put terrible music on our profiles.Speaking of things nobody expected to return...CDs are suddenly making a comeback. Yes... actual compact discs. The crew debates whether anyone even owns a CD player anymore, whether physical media still matters, and whether younger generations are rediscovering something older fans never completely gave up on. It's part nostalgia, part technology debate, and part excuse for Moon to become the resident audio nerd.Then things somehow become even stranger.William Shatner is officially performing heavy metal songs at Riot Fest... at ninety-five years old.If you've ever wondered how you pitch a Super Troopers sequel that somehow revolves around Farva marrying Thorny's sister... congratulations, you're exactly the kind of person who belongs here.The Broken Lizard crew joins The Rizzuto Show to pull back the curtain on Super Troopers 3, hitting theaters August 7. They explain how the movie evolved into a massive wedding comedy inspired by real-life Indian wedding celebrations, why an elephant became part of the insanity, and how Farva once again manages to become everyone's favorite walking HR violation.Along the way, the guys talk about stepping back into those famous uniforms, convincing Brian Cox to return after becoming television royalty on Succession, and what it's feels like watching one of the greatest actors alive casually roast everyone on set. Turns out working with Brian Cox means getting insulted by a professional... and somehow enjoying every second of it.Of course, this wouldn't be The Rizzuto Show without the rails disappearing almost immediately. Rafe spends an uncomfortable amount of time explaining his ongoing campaign to become everyone's stepdad by marrying their mothers. Somehow that transitions into discussions about prison etiquette, monster trucks replacing elephants at weddings, popcorn buckets becoming collector's items, and whether Potfest will ever actually happen.The conversation also covers the incredible crowdfunding success behind Super Troopers 2, the eight-year journey to making the third film, hidden pop culture references fans should watch for, and why you absolutely need to stay after the credits.If you're a longtime Broken Lizard fan, a movie nerd, or just someone who appreciates comedians who somehow built an entire career making hilarious movies with their best friends, this episode delivers nonstop laughs from start to finish.This comedy podcast is proudly made in St. Louis with the same chaotic energy you've come to expect from The Rizzuto Show.Follow The Rizzuto Show → https://linktr.ee/rizzshow for more from your favorite daily comedy show.Connect with The Rizzuto Show Comedy Podcast online → https://1057thepoint.com/RizzShow.Hear The Rizz Show daily on the radio at 105.7 The Point | Hubbard Radio in St. Louis, MO.Crews to resume search for possible drowning in Meramec River near CastlewoodUS House passes bill to make daylight saving time permanentHouse passes Trump-backed bill that would make daylight saving time permanentMissouri approves new 75 mph maximum speed limitLion's Choice up for best regional fast foodRural NY School District Will Be One of First to Bring Humanoid Robot Into ClassroomHumanoid robots perform live surgery in world firstMirrors in Space?
