Founded in 1968, Red Lobster once had more than 600 locations across the U.S., Canada, and overseas franchises. But last year, the $2 billion revenue company went into bankruptcy, reorganized, and came out with new ownership and new leadership. The company has sought to revamp operations, make changes to its menu, and close a few locations. According to USA Today, five Illinois Red Lobsters have closed — including in Bourbonnais, Danville, and Peoria.  All these changes are being led by the company's 36-year-old CEO: Damola Adamolekun. Born in Nigeria, Adamolekun immigrated to the U.S. when he was nine years old. His father was a neurosurgeon — and moved his family to Springfield, Illinois, in the late 1990's. And that is where Damola says he had his first experience of Red Lobster.

In this episode of Inside the Lines, Curt Conrad and Effie James talk with Fredericktown senior tight end and defensive end Gavin Toombs, one of North Central Ohio’s top football recruits. Gavin shares what it’s been like navigating the college recruiting process, what he’s looking for in a future program and how the recent NIL developments in high school sports could impact players like him. He reflects on a standout performance against Danville, where he filled in at running back and rushed for four touchdowns, and discusses the arrival of head coach Scott Spitler, the physical Wing-T offense and how Fredericktown has responded to both early wins and tough in-conference losses this season. Looking ahead to the “Freddie-Burg” rivalry game against Centerburg, Gavin talks about what the matchup means to the community and how the Freddies plan to make a deep playoff run after clinching a postseason berth. Off the field, he shares his passion for basketball, where he’s an all-Ohio standout with college interest, and the goals he and his teammates have for a strong senior season. The episode wraps up with rapid-fire questions on Fredericktown history, Halloween candy rankings and where the Freddie-Burg trophy will call home next.

Today, we'll be talking to Dr. Chris Pescatore, who will give his candid viewpoint on the pros and cons of these in-office technologies. Dr. Pescatore is general dentist for over 30 years who maintains a full-time practice dedicated exclusively to aesthetic restorative dentistry in Danville, California.

Lisa Davidson is an ironworker with Local 377 San Francisco. Her team currently does ironwork on the Golden Gate Bridge. But we'll get to that. In this episode, S8 E3, meet and get to know Lisa. I first did that back in May at our Keep It Local art show at Babylon Burning (thanks, Mike and Judy!). Someone at the party that night approached me to let me know that there was a person there who works on the best bridge in the world (fact) and that I should meet them. I love when people really get me. Right away, I was drawn in by Lisa's warmth, charm, and sense of humor. And so we sat down outside in Fort Mason in early August and Lisa shared her life story. She was raised feeling like she had complete freedom. It was something Lisa didn't realize at the time, but looking back, it became clear to her. She was raised in Framingham, Massachusetts, just outside of Boston, in a liberal household. Her grandparents lived in Boston itself, and she loved visiting them when she was a kid. Her grandfather ran a tchotchke store in town called House of Hurwitz, and Lisa says that the place had a big influence on her outlook. It was located on the edge of what they call, to this day, the “Combat Zone” (think: red-light district). Her “wheelin' and dealin'” grandpa sold mylar balloons to the Boston Gardens for events held there. He told young Lisa that she could blow up balloons and that that could be her future. Lisa has a brother four years younger than she is. Her dad was an electrician. One of his clients was a lithograph press in Boston. He'd sometimes get paged for a job and have to leave his family, although Lisa now wonders whether he just wanted to get away from time to time. When she was a senior in high school, her parents divorced, despite being a very loving couple up to that point. She says her mom was “crazy in an I Love Lucy way. She was raised in the Fifties the way many young women at that time were, in a way that did its best to stifle any creativity. Suffice to say that her mom had fun decorating the house Lisa grew up in. Despite her and her family's Jewishness, Lisa revolted and wanted to go to Catholic school or just become a preppy L.L. Bean-type kid. She of course regrets rejecting the norms of her family nowadays. It was what it was. The family was more culturally Jewish than religious, though, something Lisa says was a huge influence on who she's become as an adult. She graduated high school and went to college at the University of Massachusetts Amherst. It wasn't Ivy League, but it was (and is) something of a preppy school. Where Lisa grew up, there was an expectation that kids would go to college, and so she went. It wasn't super far from home, but it wasn't close either. Her parents did suggest that Lisa maybe go to art school. But in her family, it was the kid dismissing that idea. “That's a not real school,” young Lisa told them. She liked sports. At Amherst, she joined the crew team. She liked the competition and how good of shape it got you in. She liked it, but it was a lot of pressure. She graduated, took a year off working odd jobs, then dove into art school. So next up was Rhode Island School of Design (RISD). She was surprised she got in, and even navigated a bit of impostor syndrome. Surprised by the school's acceptance of her and feeling somewhat intimidated by other artist students, Lisa ended up doing printmaking. Rather than aiming for a master's degree, she sought a second bachelor's. Her studies had her spending a lot of time in the school's foundry, where she discovered welding. She loved it. During her time back in Amherst, she'd heard of a guy who was going to Alaska. (Lisa and I go off-topic into our shared distaste for camping at this point in the conversation.) Back to the Alaska story, her mom was fully supportive and even took her shopping at an Army Navy store. She went there and worked in canneries through the summer between her junior and senior years at Amherst. While she was up north, doing jobs all over the state, she met folks from California. From the stories they told her, it became a place she wanted to go. But first, RISD. In Rhode Island, she met a guy from Danville in the East Bay. When his family learned of her interest in our state, they invited Lisa to spend a summer with them, which she did. And she and her friend came to The City as often as they could. After those few months, she knew that California—and specifically, The Bay—was for her. She needed to go back and finish that second round of college in Rhode Island, and she did. After that, Lisa “beelined it” back to Oakland. She found work in a prop shop making sculptures out of foam with a chainsaw. Check back this Thursday for Part 2 with Lisa Davidson.

Welcome into the Danville Driving Academy studio in an undisclosed location as we discuss Danville football. We take a hard look at last week's game against Mt. Gilead. What went well, what didn't, and what are the key strategies for tomorrow's game against Northmor. Are we using the same strategy? Are we getting comfortable losing? Are we predictable? All discussed in this episode.

On this Straturday Night episode of JohnnyBeaneTV, we debut our brand-new show intro! Let us know what you think in the comments—this one's longer so I can handle behind-the-scenes work like tweeting out the live feed, activating Nightbot, and getting the studio lights dialed in before going on camera.

Hey there, friends! This week my guests are Derek Hayes (Monster Among Us Podcast) and David Flora (Blurry Photos Podcast)! These two upstanding gents  made a fantastic documentary, Shadows in the Desert: High Strangeness in the Borrego Triangle (2024). I really enjoyed this doc, so much so, that I needed to get these two fellow travels on the show right away!We discuss the documentary, without spoilers, and the many manifestations that this desert triangle has going for it: Bigfoot, UFOs, ghosts galore, and so much more! We also talk about some of their personal experience in the realm of the strange and unusual. I really admire what these two dudes did, and how they did it. I highly recommend checking out this film on TUBI, and likely some other streaming services. It's a good one! Love, Steve https://www.borregotriangle.com/where-to-streamDerek Hayes:Derek Hayes is the creator and host of award-winning podcast, Monsters Among Us, a collection of real paranormal stories told by the witnesses themselves.
