Think a “low salt” alert means grab another bag? That assumption can wreck a salt system, corrode equipment, and leave you with a pool that won't chlorinate. We break down the most costly mistakes we see on routes and at home—oversalting, starving circulation, and ignoring water levels—and share practical steps to keep water safe without wasting money.We start with salinity. False low readings happen when cells are dirty, dying, or the water is cold. If the builder, startup tech, and homeowner all add salt without talking, levels can spike past 3400 ppm, shutting systems down and chewing through heaters and metal parts. Our fix: stop trusting panels and test with a digital salinity meter, document additions, and communicate clearly so no one double doses. Aim for 3000 to 3400 ppm and you'll protect both water and gear.Next, we tackle runtime myths. Cutting a pump to two or three summer hours invites cloudy water, algae, and higher chemical bills. We explain how variable speed pumps save power at low RPM, why longer runs can be cheaper than short bursts, and how to reset the conversation around safety and clarity. If a client insists on a shorter schedule, set expectations up front: more risk, more maintenance, and potential extra charges for treatments.Then we confront the quiet killer—low water. Pros shouldn't fill pools due to liability and lost time. Instead, shut equipment down when levels drop and coach clients to keep water mid-skimmer or tile midpoint. Skipping top-ups can cook pumps, melt plumbing, and turn a simple visit into an emergency repair. Tie behavior to costs so homeowners see the real stakes and act before damage occurs.Finally, dirt is not just dust—it stains. Soil carries metals and organics that etch plaster when left all week. A suction side cleaner protects surfaces by vacuuming daily, cuts manual labor, and keeps pools brighter between visits. We share a simple demo strategy that lets results sell the upgrade.• Why panels show false low salt and how to verify with a digital meter• Safe salinity Send us a textSupport the Pool Guy Podcast Show Sponsors!

Christopher O'Brien has a new book out entitled. Stalking the Herd, which is one of the most the most thoroughly researched books ever published on Cattle Mutilations. In part one of this interview, we discuss the phenomena in general, we talk about it's history, and the first cases. We do get into the levels of high strangeness, as well as the mundane cases. Chris will be back in June for Part 2. From 1992 to 2002 Christopher O'Brien investigated over one thousand paranormal events reported in the San Luis Valley—located in south-central Colorado/north-central New Mexico. Working with law enforcement officials, ex-military, ranchers and an extensive network of skywatchers, he documented what may have been the most intense wave of unexplained activity ever seen in a single region of North America. His ten-year investigation resulted in the three books of his “mysterious valley” trilogy: The Mysterious Valley, Enter the Valley, and Secrets of the Mysterious Valley. His meticulous field investigation of UFO reports, unexplained livestock deaths, Native American legends, cryptozoology, secret military activity and the folklore, found in the world's largest alpine valley, has produced one of the largest databases of unusual occurrences gathered from a single geographic region. He is currently working with a team of specialists installing a high-tech video surveillance and hard-data monitoring system in and around the San Luis Valley. He has also authored Stalking the Tricksters which is published by Adventures Unlimited Press. This controversial book distills his years of field investigation and research into an ingenious unified paranormal theory that is sure to create intense interest and controversy.

Wallace Thornhill joins us on this night, and we discuss many facets of the Electric Universe Theory. Why it should be preferred over the current mainstream model, the proof for it, dismissing the Big Bang, Black Holes, Dark Matter, and much more. We talk of galaxies and stars, and what happened to Mars and Earth in the distant path. We talk of Velikovsky and Peratt. It is a fascinating journey. Wallace Thornhill graduated in Physics at Melbourne University in 1964 and began postgraduate studies with Prof. Victor Hopper's upper atmosphere research group. Before entering university, he had been inspired by Immanuel Velikovsky through his controversial best-selling book, Worlds in Collision. Wal experienced first-hand the indifference and sometimes hostility toward a radical challenge to mainstream science. He realized there is no career for a heretic in academia. Wal worked for 11 years with IBM Australia. The later years were spent in the prestigious IBM Systems Development Institute in Canberra, working on the first computer graphics system in Australia. He was the technical support for the computing facilities in the Research Schools at the Australian National University, which gave him excellent access to libraries and scientists there. Wal was initially heavily influenced by the then revolutionary ideas of Immanuel Velikovsky of Princeton. Velikovsky proposed that mankind had been devastated in the past by cosmological events . Wal took these ideas and with his deep knowledge of astronomy and, plasma physics began his own questioning of scientific dogma. Paramount was the place of electro magnetism, as distinct from gravity, in the formation of the universe . This slowly but surely led to his and other colleagues (such as David Talbot, Donald Scott, and Anthony Peratt) questioning such ingrained theories as the big bang, black holes and Einstein's theory of relativity. This group in particular contend that many scientific “proofs “are theory laden or mathematically concocted. An insistence on empirical data from observations and experiments gives their work true integrity.

How to Trade Stocks and Options Podcast by 10minutestocktrader.com
Are you looking to save time, make money, and start winning with less risk? Then head to https://www.ovtlyr.com.Markets have been absolutely wild lately. One day we are down hard, the next day we are ripping higher. If that sounds familiar, you are not alone. This kind of volatility is where most traders get shaken out, not because they lack information, but because they keep making the same mistakes over and over again. This video walks straight into those mistakes, calls them out, and explains why consistency in the market has a lot less to do with prediction and a lot more to do with discipline, execution, and risk control.If you have ever said things like “it should come back,” “I'll just give it a little more room,” or “I don't want to sell now because it might bounce,” this one is going to hit close to home. These habits feel normal, but normal behavior in markets usually leads to very average results. And average results in trading usually mean frustration.A big theme here is the difference between thinking like a money-first trader versus a risk-first trader. Most people obsess over how much they might make on a trade. Professional traders obsess over how much they can lose and whether that loss fits inside a clearly defined plan. When risk is handled correctly, the money tends to show up over time without forcing it.There is also a deep dive into why buying the dip can be far more dangerous than it sounds. No one knows how far a stock can fall. Strong trends, on the other hand, often last much longer than people expect. Buying strength, respecting exits, and letting winners run is uncomfortable, but that discomfort is often where consistency lives.Here are some of the biggest mistakes covered in the video, and odds are you will recognize at least one of them:✅ Holding losing trades and hoping they recover✅ Cutting winning trades too early✅ Moving stops instead of honoring them✅ Averaging down without a real risk plan✅ Trading based on emotion instead of executionAnother powerful idea discussed is treating every trade as a completely separate event. Your last win does not guarantee another win. Your last loss does not doom the next trade. When traders drag emotions from past trades into new ones, decision making breaks down fast.The video also explains why understanding overall market direction matters so much. Using objective tools like moving averages removes a lot of guesswork. You may not know how far or how long a move will last, but you can know whether the market is trending up or down. Ignoring that information is how traders get trapped for years.The reality is simple but uncomfortable. Most people struggle in markets not because they are unintelligent, but because they cannot consistently follow a plan. An edge without execution does nothing. Execution without emotional control falls apart quickly.If you want to stop repeating the same mistakes, stop guessing, and start trading with clarity, structure, and confidence, this breakdown will challenge how you think about risk, discipline, and what it actually takes to be consistent. That mindset shift is exactly where OVTLYR separates itself from the crowd.Gain instant access to the AI-powered tools and behavioral insights top traders use to spot big moves before the crowd.

Oh boy, grab your hard hat and hold onto your toolbox because Eric G is diving into the wild world of the housing market and remodeling for 2026! Spoiler alert: things are getting real “interesting” out there. Builder confidence is dropping faster than my patience when I can't find my favorite tool, with a recent dip to a not-so-rosy 37 on the index. But fear not, we're also seeing renovation spending gearing up for a little comeback, so maybe there's hope for our home improvement dreams yet! Join me as I dissect the chaos of today's market, the absurdity of house flips that make you question humanity, and what the future might hold as we navigate this ever-turbulent housing landscape. You won't want to miss this midweek update filled with sarcasm, insights, and a sprinkle of good old-fashioned mockery—because really, who doesn't need a laugh while discussing home prices? The housing market is like that friend who promises to show up but always bails last minute—totally unreliable and frustratingly unpredictable. This week, Eric G dives deep into the current state of housing and remodeling, predicting what 2026 might look like for all of us poor souls trying to make sense of it. Spoiler alert: it's not all sunshine and rainbows. With builder confidence dropping and sales expectations plummeting, it's clear that we're in for a bumpy ride. Just when you thought things couldn't get worse, 40% of builders are cutting prices like they're at a clearance sale—except, you know, it's not a great sign for the overall market. We're talking average price drops of 6%, which is just sad and tells you everything you need to know about the state of affairs. But wait, there's a glimmer of hope! Renovation spending is on the rise for 2026, which might just save our collective sanity. It's like finding a five-dollar bill in your pocket when you thought you were broke. Eric also dishes out some juicy tidbits about the ongoing trade shows in the construction world—where the tools come out to play, and the latest trends do a little dance. From World of Concrete to the International Builder Show, there's a lot happening, and Eric promises to keep us in the loop, even if it means dragging us through the mud of the current housing crisis. As if that weren't enough, Eric has a brilliant idea brewing—he's considering a podcast series dedicated to the absolute horror shows that are some of the house flips he's seen around Portland. Seriously, folks, it's like a train wreck you can't look away from. So, strap in and prepare for a wild ride as we navigate the murky waters of the housing market together. Let's just hope we don't need to build an ark by 2026!Takeaways:The housing market is cooling down with builder confidence falling to 37 in January, not exactly a glowing endorsement for future buyers.Almost 40% of builders are cutting prices, and the average price reduction has jumped to 6%, which is just a little alarming if you ask me.If you thought renovations were on the rise, you might be right—spending on home improvements is expected to rise throughout 2026. Yay for us!Mortgage rates are sitting at about 6.06%, which is the lowest we've seen since late 2022, but don't get too excited about the good old days of 3%.Everyone seems to be holding off on major HVAC upgrades because prices are skyrocketing, and who wants to drop a fortune on a heat pump right now?Energy-efficient upgrades, like EV chargers, are losing their charm in 2026 as more homeowners already have them...

Throughout the episode, Jazzy opens up about the realities of sustaining a creative life — the doubts, the breakthroughs, and the personal evolution that comes with long-term artistic work. Her story highlights the importance of trust, collaboration, and empathy, revealing how an editor's sensibility is deeply intertwined with who they are as a person.

He was universally hated by his men, removed from command for incompetence, and died alone and forgotten in a veterans' home—yet he may have been the single most important reason the most legendary unit of World War II became legendary.

If two weeks into 2026, your diet already fell apart, let's clear something up right away: You cannot fail a 6–12+ month journey in a few weeks.What did happen is that you probably made the same fat loss mistakes most people make every January. Going too aggressive. Cutting too hard. Doing more cardio. Ignoring sleep and stress. Relying on motivation to carry you through real life. And those mistakes backfire every single time.In today's episode, you'll learn exactly what I'd do instead.We'll talk about why rushing fat loss is the fastest way to stall it, why exercise isn't for “burning fat,” why structure beats motivation, why sleep and stress matter more than most people want to admit, and the one skill almost everyone skips that actually determines whether you succeed long-term.Got questions?DM me at @johanvesters_ocs on Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/johanvesters_ocs/ --- Free gift for our listeners!

What happens when an old epigenetics training connection pops back into your inbox… talking stem cells, regenerative medicine, and the future of healing? Susan reconnects with Daniel Fazio for a high-energy, “buckle up” conversation that makes stem cells feel way less mysterious, and a lot more practical.Daniel breaks down Stem Cells 101 in a way you'll actually remember (think: your body as a city, and stem cells as the “contracted construction crew” that gets called in when roads, buildings, or systems need repair). From inflammation and recovery to performance and longevity, they unpack why stem cells are becoming one of the most talked-about tools in regenerative medicine, and what most people still don't understand about how they work.They also dive into the real-world differences between using your own cells vs donor-based options, why adipose-derived (fat tissue) harvesting can be less invasive than bone marrow, and the key questions to ask any provider (including cell viability, safety protocols, and candidate considerations). If you've ever wondered whether stem cells are “for you,” how banking works, or what the next wave of medicine could look like… this episode is your starting point.In this episodeStem Cells 101 explained with a memorable analogy: your body's “repair crew” for recovery and rejuvenationThe difference between mesenchymal stem cells (bone marrow/adipose) and pluripotent cells (perinatal sources like umbilical/placenta)Adipose-derived stem cells: what they are, how harvesting works, and why many see them as a more accessible optionWhy people often feel changes first through reduced inflammation and improved daily function/performanceThe big “must-ask” question: cell viability, and why it matters for resultsWho may be a better candidate for using a younger blood relative's cells (and why age and health history matter)Learn more about our guest Daniel Fazio:With a deep background in regenerative medicine, Daniel recognized a critical gap in the healthcare landscape. Cutting-edge stem cell science existed — the technology to help people heal, recover, and thrive — but for most Americans, it remained out of reach.Too often, he witnessed patients being overlooked. Told "no" without a second thought. Dismissed because they didn't fit a narrow profile or couldn't afford boutique clinic prices. These weren't edge cases — they were everyday people seeking real solutions.That's when the vision for Legacy Labs was born: to bring the best stem cell technology in the United States to everyone — not just the wealthy or well-connected.RESOURCES:Connect with Daniel Fazio:https://getlegacylabs.com/https://app.minnect.com/expert/DanielFaziohttps://l2bio.com/Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/danfazio_https://healthyawakening.co/2026/01/19/episode107/Connect with Susan: https://healthyawakening.co/Visit the website: healthyawakening.co/podcastFind listening links here: https://healthyawakening.co/linksP.S.

More isn't better. Better is better.Day 18 is about cutting back — not quitting, not losing momentum, but deliberately reducing excess so progress can continue.Most people stall not because they aren't doing enough, but because they're doing too much. Too much volume. Too many goals. Too many decisions. Eventually, something gives — usually consistency.This session teaches you how to recognise when it's time to pull back so you can move forward.You'll learn how to:Identify signs of overload before they become setbacksReduce volume without losing intentProtect energy, recovery, and focusStay consistent during busy or stressful periodsCutting back is a skill. It requires self-awareness, honesty, and confidence in the long game. This isn't about lowering standards — it's about removing unnecessary load so the important work stays sharp.This day reinforces a key performance principle: sustainability drives results. Training, habits, and routines that can't be maintained eventually collapse. Those that can adapt endure.Cutting back allows you to:Preserve movement qualityMaintain momentumAvoid the boom-and-bust cycleStrip it back. Keep the signal strong. Let progress continue.Day 18 teaches restraint — a skill every long-term performer needs.Shaun Kober is a Mindset & Performance Specialist, with a unique skillset forged in the trenches, through the various stages of life."I shouldn't be in the position I am right now."

My WitnessesJanuary 18, 2026Teacher: Pastor Michael WhiteThe golden ruleMatthew 7:12 Intro:“We are an underwear family”I need you to get on board with this.It's the done thing in our familyI would assume that we are all underwear people, if not, please don't tell me. Families have characteristics. Ways that they do things, things they don't do, values they have. When you think about your family, now or in the past, what things characterized your family?Maybe you're a camping familyOr maybe you're a “we watch a movie on Friday night family”Maybe you're a “we say grace even in restaurants family” There are things that you do, that show what your family values.“Remember who you are!”You've been given an identity.A set of valuesYou're not just you, you represent a group of people. Super familiar verseBut I want to put it into its context and that's going to add a layer to its meaning. ScriptureMatthew 7:1212 So in everything, do to others what you would have them do to you, for this sums up the Law and the Prophets. Context is kingThis comes at the end of the sermon on the mount, Matthew 5-7That's importantWhat's the sermon on the mount?RiffJesus greatest concentrated teachingImportant because he starts out with this.He is defining what his purpose isShowing what is important to himFor the next 3 years he lives this out When we get down to our verse…7:12 Doesn't really feel related to vv. 7-11. 7 “Ask and it will be given to you; seek and you will find; knock and the door will be opened to you. 8 For everyone who asks receives; the one who seeks finds; and to the one who knocks, the door will be opened.9 “Which of you, if your son asks for bread, will give him a stone? 10 Or if he asks for a fish, will give him a snake? 11 If you, then, though you are evil, know how to give good gifts to your children, how much more will your Father in heaven give good gifts to those who ask him! Then the golden rule comes and it doesn't seem to follow.It goes back to 5:17 17 “Do not think that I have come to abolish the Law or the Prophets; I have not come to abolish them but to fulfill them. That's the overall rubric, What does it look like to fulfill the law and prophets? Jesus takes 2 chapters to illustrate how you do that.then it culminates in the Golden ruleThe law and the prophets are fulfilled in how we treat other people.That's what the 2 chapters of the sermon on the mount are all about, how Jesus' disciples should relate to other people.The proof of a relationship with Jesus is a changed heart that results in changed behavior toward other peopleNeed to understand This is a verse about Christian community, the churchIt's not about being an individual. It does affect individual behavior, but in the sense of how we as individuals fit into the group.This is about how the family behaves.Just like your family of origin has certain characteristics,The Golden rule characterizes the family of GodThis is how the family behaves as God fulfills his plan and purpose for the world.The movement of God from the moment sin entered into the worldUntil the point where evil is finally defeated once and for allStory arc that God is making a new creation. The church. We are living into God's plan and purpose and we do that by acting like the family of God.It's fundamentally about redemption.As people come to know the good news of Jesus, God is gathering them/us together, creating a new people, a new community of people who are living into the reality of God's new creation. It's like this taste of heaven.Here's where the Golden Rule comes inThose people are pointing to a world where only good is done to each other. Can you Imagine what that would be like?People wouldn't hurt each otherNo one would say terrible things to each otherThere wouldn't be any warNo one would need to be afraidIt sounds like heaven…This is the profound point.This is the answer to the line of the Lord's PrayerThy kingdom come, thy will be done on earth as it is in heavenA world where only good is done to each otherThat's the kingdom of God. That's what we point to.That's how disciples of Jesus liveDo to others what you would have them do to you.This is the done thing. This is how the family behaves. This is how the new community reflects the character of God.This is how we live into the day when God's rule is complete.That's what the Golden rule is all aboutThe Golden Rule in historyNobody really knows how it became known as the “Golden Rule” But the story I like best is that the Roman Emperor Severus Alexander 222-35, was so impressed by the saying that he had it inscribed in gold on the wall of his chamber. Severus Alexander You've probably never heard of him, but he has a very famous descendentSeverus SnapeThe Golden Rule isn't original to Jesus.It exists in Judaism, particularly in Rabbi Hillel, I'd show you a photo of him, but he doesn't have any famous relativesand many other places, Here's the thing: it is almost always in the negative. Don't do to other people what you don't want them to do to you.That's a great rule. Would you like it if someone did that to you?No? Then don't do that to them.Cutting people off on the freeway.Jesus takes that rule and does something interesting with it.Jesus puts it in the positiveTakes it away from being passiveAs long as your not doing anything bad, you're doing fine.By putting it in the positive makes it more demanding.Therefore everything you would like others to do to you, your yourselves be doing to them.It's proactive“Hey, here's this person in this situation.” If I was in that situation, I would want someone to do this for me.You can't meet everyone's need. It's impossible. But don't use that as an out.There will be people God places in your field of visionMe in the supermarketYou look lost can I help you.In the negative way of understanding the rule, he didn't have to do that. In the positive sense that Jesus introduces, this was a great way.It has little implications and it has huge implications.Maybe it means you open the door for someone who is caring an armful of packages.Maybe you stop and help someone who looks like they need help.Maybe you grant charitable assumptions instead of assuming the worst.Maybe you put yourself into the position of people who are affected by policies and procedures that don't affect you and ask yourself, what would I want someone to do for me if I was in that situation?Water at ChautauquaWe take the initiative to love people.It doesn't say treat others as they treat you.We are called to live by a higher standard, a greater righteousness, a deeper ethic than “pay each other back in kind”quid pro quoFeels like there could be this complex morality.But Jesus boils down to something super simple.There are 622 laws in the Old TestamentAll the teaching of the sermon on the mount is caught up in this summary. This one thing…Whatever you would like other people to do to you be doing that to other people. Raises issues of identityWhose family do you belong to?Maybe the more revealing question is: Whose family do you look like? What are the things that characterize your life?Some of us, need to decide which family we want to belong to.Others of us, need to decide that we are going to be more serious about reflecting the family priorities.You can't just dabble with JesusIn the public square there are people saying Jesusy things but whose lives don't reflect anything of the Jesus that I know.What family are you reflecting?Whose family do you look like?Just because you show up at church, doesn't mean that you are reflecting God's family.The biggest problem to be overcome? Our angerInside and outside the church.We are all Jesusy until something happens that makes us mad or that we don't like.Sajan and the capital fund.We grow. We get mentored. We watch other people liveThe longer you hang out with the family, the more you figure out what the done thing is.Which means that some us need to make sure that we are setting a good example and all of us need to continue to grow into the image and likeness of JesusThis happened in our family.Brian 3 criteriaI'm a girl dadHe's a guy. He contacts his parents 3 times a year.I have heard from Rachel and AllieOur family is not like that.Brian has learnedThat's the done thing in our familyI'm sure his parents don't know he was deployedThey'll have three kidsBut he has learned what our family looks likeWe sink our roots in deeply into the family and we participate with the Holy Spirit in the creation of the new communityI am a part of a group. I am not just me. I am an extension of us.All about relationships. How we treat each other.How we love God, by loving othersHow does this help you make decisions?The Golden Rule is like a compass. It doesn't address every single situation. But, it points you in the right direction.It might not tell you how long you need to do something or what the exact process should be, but it helps you find the right path.Friend is dealing with a difficult employee. They do just the bare minimum to get by. They are passive aggressive. They are not actively undermining things.They seem to know just where the line is and they push it but don't cross it.Before you put your management hat on. It's complicated. And I haven't told you the whole story.The Golden Rule doesn't tell you when to involve HR, or when to start a performance improvement plan. But it does tell you what your posture should be as you approach the situation. An application point would be to look at your relationships and ask “Who am I not treating like I would like to be treated?”Context of the series on missions. Uniquely positioned to affect peoplePlace of hospitality and warmthKeeping the main thing the main thing.All sorts of churches who have become characterized by all sorts of things that are not the gospel.God is inviting everyone into a new community. That's the evangelistic opportunity.We have this to offer people. Showing people a different way, a better way. A way that leads to peace and joy and fulfillment.We do this by living differentlylives are Characterized by the things that characterized Jesus' life.Holding as important what Jesus held iimportantI want to go back to something I said early about two very important teachings of Jesus.The Golden Rule and the Lord's prayerDesire is in the golden rule Do the thing that you would desire other people to do for you.It's also key to the Lord's PrayerI desire that Your kingdom come, your will be done.In my life and on earth in the same way it is done in heaven.Our hearts is a not good judge of what is best. But our hearts can be changed to desire the things that God desires.Encourage us as a group to think about that. What are our hearts desiring?Who or what is forming our heart? The gospel or our preferred news outlet?What would your friends, your children or your grandchildren say forms you more, your commitment to Jesus or your party affiliation?We have this amazing gift which we have been given that we can offer people. Changed lives, changed hearts, a community where we are striving to honor God by faithfully working in our relationships to bring about a kingdom where only good is done.Sermon question:Who or what is forming your heart?Who do you need to treat differently?How can the golden rule help you make decisions this week?

In this episode of Wellness at the Speed of Light, Dr. Stefano Sinicropi is joined by Dr. Terry Simpson for a clear, science-grounded conversation on obesity, emerging medications, and the future of patient care. Dr. Simpson brings a clinician's perspective to one of the most debated topics in modern healthcare, explaining why obesity cannot be reduced to willpower or diet alone. The discussion explores how brain signaling and physiology influence weight regulation, and why understanding these mechanisms is essential for informed, compassionate care. Rather than adding to the noise, this episode focuses on clarity, evidence, and thoughtful dialogue. The conversation also examines the growing attention around GLP-1 medications and how they are reshaping conversations about treatment pathways, including their potential impact on bariatric surgery decisions. Dr. Simpson and Dr. Sinicropi discuss why science-based communication matters more than ever, especially as patients face overwhelming and often conflicting information about weight, health, and medical options. This episode is designed for healthcare professionals, patients, and listeners interested in wellness, metabolic health, and the evolution of evidence-informed medicine.

Over the next few weeks, I'm gonna be sharing my new book with you—start to finish. The whole thing. It's called Bigfoot Country. All told, it's around eight hours of narration. So, I'll be putting it out in multiple episodes. And honestly... I've been sitting on this for a long time. I'm excited—and a little nervous—to finally put it out there. But before we jump in, I wanna take a minute. Just you and me.What you're about to hear is loosely based on my life. Some of it happened exactly the way I tell it. No embellishment, no polish. Other parts are rooted in real experiences—real people, real moments, real emotions—but maybe stretched a bit, or reimagined, to help the story breathe. And then there are parts where… well, you get to decide what you believe.I also wanna be upfront about something. Early on, you might find yourself wondering where this is all headed. There's a lot of groundwork—family, childhood, personal history. Just know this: it's going somewhere. This book is about Bigfoot. That's the destination. I promise. Just trust me long enough to get there. At its heart, this is a story about my earliest experiences with the strange and unexplained. It starts with something that happened to me when I was twelve years old—an encounter with what I believe was a Sasquatch. That moment stayed with me. It shaped a lot of who I became. And for years, I struggled with how—or even if—I should ever tell that story. Because how do you talk about something the world insists isn't real? How do you open yourself up like that, knowing people are gonna judge you, doubt you, or dismiss you entirely?But these stories have always mattered to me. This book has always mattered. And at some point, I realized I was done keeping it all tucked away. Here's the thing, though—I didn't just write about Bigfoot. I wrote about me. All of me. My childhood. My parents. My failures. My struggles. And yeah… Dani.I know that part isn't gonna sit well with everyone. I get that. Some folks are gonna have opinions, and that's their right. But for me, leaving any of that out would've been dishonest. I can't ask you to trust me with these experiences and then hide pieces of who I am. I can't tell my story without including the person who stood beside me through the hardest parts of it. That's just not how I live, and it's not how this book was written.Believe me, I thought about sanding down the rough edges. Making it cleaner. Safer. Easier to swallow. Cutting out the parts that might make people uncomfortable. But I couldn't do it. I've spent too much of my life holding back, and I'm done with that.So this is me. This is my story. All of it. Some of what you'll hear happened exactly as I describe it. Some of it is how I imagine things might have gone—if the timing had been different, if I'd pushed harder, if the world worked the way I think it sometimes should.And one last thing before we start—this is Book One. There's more coming. A lot more. This is just the beginning. I hope you enjoy Bigfoot Country... as much as I did writing it. Part One is called The Hollow, and it begins in September of 1984. I was eleven years old, just a few months shy of twelve, and my family had just moved to a place called Lyerly, Georgia. Population next to nothing. No stoplight. One gas station. The kind of town where everybody knew everybody's business before you even finished doing it. We moved into an old house at the end of a dirt road—a house that looked like something had crawled there to die. White paint gone gray. Porch sagging in the middle. Eighty acres of woods stretching out behind it like a wall. My father, Jerry Patterson, was a drinker. A man whose silence usually meant a storm was building. My mother, Jean, was small but fierce in the ways that mattered—even if she couldn't fix the things that were broken in our family. She stayed. She always stayed. The woods became my escape. I spent those early weeks mapping the land, building forts out of fallen branches and rotting tarps, disappearing into the trees whenever the tension at home got too thick. I learned every trail, every landmark, every corner of that property. All except one. There was a section way back at the far edge, where our land butted up against the national forest, that I couldn't bring myself to enter. Every time I got close, something pushed me back. A wrongness I couldn't name. A feeling like walking into a cold spot in a warm room.One day in late October, I decided I'd had enough of being scared. I was almost twelve years old. Too old for this. So I grabbed my BB gun and headed out to prove to myself there was nothing back there worth fearing. I was wrong. What I found was a clearing with a depression in the ground where something big had been bedding down. The smell hit me first—wet dog mixed with a dumpster behind a butcher shop. And then the sounds. Heavy footsteps. Bipedal. Something walking on two legs that weighed more than any man. Huffing. Growling. Sounds that rose and fell in patterns that almost seemed like language. It charged at me through the underbrush, stopped maybe twenty feet away, and just... breathed. Watched. Decided. It let me go.I ran home faster than I'd ever run in my life. And I never told a soul.But that wasn't the only strangeness that followed us to that house. At night, I started hearing voices in the walls—whispery, indistinct, speaking in languages I couldn't understand. A dark figure began appearing at the foot of my bed, a void shaped like a man, watching me while I lay frozen and unable to scream. Scratching moved through the walls like something was circling me. Three heavy knocks shook my bedroom door one night, and when I opened it, no one was there—but downstairs, a fire was burning in a fireplace we never used, in a chimney my father said was blocked.Something was in that house. Something that had been there before us and didn't want us there. And then, in January, everything changed. My mother got sick. Skin Cancer. The doctors gave her six months, maybe a year. And my father—the man who was supposed to hold us together—disappeared. Shacked up with some woman in another town, drowning himself in pills and booze while his wife was dying and his son was alone. I ended up staying with my best friend Brad Henderson's family. They took me in without question, gave me a bed and a place at their table. And every weekend, someone drove me to Atlanta so I could watch my mother fade away in a hospital room. She lost her hair. Lost her weight. Lost everything except her will to fight.Against all odds, she won. Almost a year to the day after her diagnosis, the doctors told us her cancer was in remission. She came home for Christmas, weighing maybe eighty pounds, wrapped in a scarf my friend's mother had knitted for her. And the first thing she did was look at my father's empty chair and say the words I'd been waiting to hear my whole life. We're leaving. But leaving wasn't simple. My father showed up one last time, took my mother's pain medication right out of the medicine cabinet, and vanished. He started selling those pills around town—the same town that had taken up a collection to help us, the same community that had rallied around my dying mother while he was nowhere to be found People got angry. The wrong kind of people. One night in January, I woke up to the sound of voices and vehicles in the yard. I looked out my window and saw twenty figures in white robes standing around a burning cross. The Klan had come to our house. Not because of us—because of him. Because of the shame he'd brought on his family in a place that took such things seriously.We left Lyerly two weeks later. My mother divorced my father, took back her maiden name, and we started over in a tiny apartment in Summerville. Two bedrooms. Thin walls. Stained carpet. But it was ours. And it was safe. I got a job at Dairy Queen. Went to school. Helped my mother however I could. The nightmares followed me—the dark figure, the dreams of something chasing me through endless woods—but I buried it all. Pushed it down. Told myself it didn't matter anymore.But I never forgot what I heard in those woods. Never forgot that huffing, that growling, those footsteps too heavy to be human. I knew it was real. I knew it was out there. And someday, I was going to find it again.But first, I had to grow up. First, I had to survive. That's Part One of Bigfoot Country.Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/sasquatch-odyssey--4839697/support.

In this episode of Outside the Round, host Matt Burrill welcomes legendary country songwriter Roger Springer for an honest and heartfelt conversation about the craft, the culture, and the community of country music. Roger shares his journey from small-town Oklahoma to Nashville in 1990—landing a record deal within just two months—right at the heart of the '90s country explosion. After losing that first deal, Roger transitioned into full-time songwriting, building a legacy through hits with legends like Mark Chesnutt and carving a space for himself in country music history. He reflects on learning from the greats, the grind of life on the road, and the ever-changing landscape of the Nashville music industry. Now, Roger's influence extends into the new generation of traditional-leaning country artists. He plays a vital role in mentoring and producing projects for rising voices like Jake Worthington, Will Bannister, and Colton Dawson—young talents reviving the spirit of '90s country with modern energy. Throughout the conversation, Roger emphasizes the power of simplicity, truth, and personal experience in songwriting—and why staying passionate about the craft is what keeps him going strong after all these years.
