Blues is the Truth #804 We are straight back to business this week with a massive stack of tunes that needs absolutely no introduction. No requests, no fluff, just two full hours of pure, unadulterated groove from some of the best to ever do it. We are setting the mood early with the legendary Taj Mahal and the hypnotic blues-rock vibe of Medicine Head, before dipping into some classic vocal harmony from The 5 Royales. The temperature rises quickly from there with The Cashbox Kings, Blues Messenger, and the searing guitar work of Tinsley Ellis. For the deep, historic roots, we've got the delta giant Bukka White in the building, alongside a brilliant collaboration from Carl Carlton and Melanie Wiegmann, and the godfather himself, John Mayall. We are keeping that classic energy high with soulful runs from Curtis Salgado, the king Buddy Guy, The Fabulous Thunderbirds, and the vintage jazz-blues vocals of Helen Humes. The second half is a masterclass in harmonica-driven heat and modern grit. You will hear Russ Green, The Four Flames, and the swampy fire of Ghalia and Mama's Boys, right alongside KAT Blue and the True Believers. We've also locked in the powerhouse pairing of the Nick Moss Band Featuring Dennis Gruenling, Dave Weld and the Imperial Flames, and the brilliant Dave Thomas. Rounding off an absolute powerhouse of a show, we are clearing the runway for Freddie King, the gritty rock-blues of Mississippi Shakedown, Dixie Peach, and the beautifully expressive guitar of Ronnie Earl and the Broadcasters, before finishing up with the mighty Tedeschi Trucks Band. It is a serious lineup from top to bottom.

Blues is the Truth #803 The requests have been landing in the inbox thick and fast lately, so for this episode, I've dusted off a couple of your personal choices and dropped them straight into the mix alongside all our usual weekly features. We are starting off in style with the smooth, laid-back groove of Keb'Mo' and keeping the energy high with tracks from Burning Rope, Dave Thomas, and The Four Flames. We've also got the undisputed pioneer T-Bone Walker and the classic New Orleans piano roll of Al Broussard showing everyone how it is done, flowing beautifully into the sharp guitar work of Kai Strauss and Gary Dranow. For the roots and acoustic heads, we are diving deep into the sounds of Reverend Freakchild, the legendary pairing of Ry Cooder and Taj Mahal, and the vintage vocals of Blue Lu Barker. Then we shift gears into the heavy hitters, featuring a stellar run of Buddy Guy, Red Red, and the absolute master of the Telecaster, Albert Collins. The quality just doesn't drop this week. You will also hear the Quintus McCormick Blues Band, the gritty brilliance of Ian Siegal, and the unstoppable force of Gabe Stillman.

After some chatter about the recent UAP file dump from the Department of Defense and the skepticism surrounding a purported Epstein suicide note, we welcome Adrienne Hill and Dave Thomas to talk about last week's WeCanReason and SkeptiCamp New Mexico. If you've ever wondered what goes into a smaller, regional get-together for skeptics, this is a good primer. These low- or no-cost, more intimate gatherings are playing a bigger and bigger role in skeptical outreach and community building. And, we admit, in the midst of all the serious topics in current events that require our skeptical toolkits, a weekend away to talk about cryptids, ghosts or UFOs (along with world events) can be a fun refuge! How much work is it to hold one, and when should planning start? We go over ways to energize volunteers, publicize an event, gather speakers, plan a field trip, and ally with other communities like humanists, magicians or Unitarian Universalists.

In this episode, host Dave Thomas is joined by four Fellows of the American College of Trial Lawyers: Michael Critchley, Kevin Marino, Henry Klingeman, and Lawrence Lustberg. Together, they unpack the high-profile prosecution of New Jersey power broker George Norcross III and his co-defendants, arising from a sweeping indictment alleging extortion, coercion, and racketeering. The discussion focuses on the coordinated work of the defense team across multiple defendants, including how counsel aligned strategy in responding to a complex, multi-count indictment. The panel reflects on the shared effort required to challenge the charges early in the proceedings and the importance of disciplined, collaborative advocacy. The conversation also explores the legal battle over the limits of criminal statutes, the strategic decision to move for dismissal before discovery, and the role of the American College of Trial Lawyers as amicus curiae in the case.

This week on the pod, we were joined by two of Katie's neighbors: Erin and Dave. Along with a few other members of their community in Shaker Heights, Ohio, they've been working together to stop the AI surveillance company Flock from sharing their data with ICE.It's a complicated issue! First, on the technical side -- how exactly does Flock work, and how are they sharing data with ICE and Border Patrol? It's also tricky on the advocacy side -- how can we know if Flock is sharing our data with ICE, and what can we do to stop it? But Erin and Dave broke it all down and explained what we can do if we're worried about Flock in our own community. A great place to start is https://deflock.org/,  a  crowdsourced website where people have been sharing where cameras are located all across the country. From there, you can find people in your community who are also concerned about this issue and push for change on the local level. It's important to advocate on the federal level for changes to ICE and Border Patrol, but you can actually have a conversation with your local city council member or chief of police. After all, they're part of your community too.Erin, Dave and Katie all agreed that as scary as everything feels right now (with ICE, surveillance, and AI high on the list of concerns), it's actually been empowering to talk to their local leaders about Flock... and, of course, become better friends along the way.For a transcript of this episode, please email comms@redwine.blue.

As the average transaction price of a new car creeps towards $55,000, a coming wave of low mile, off-lease EVs with massive depreciation could help car dealers solve the affordability crisis, combat sticker shock, and move more units. CDK's David Thomas talks us through it on today's surprisingly affordable episode of Quick Charge. A tidal wave of EVs leased in the early-2020s is about to come back to dealers, with over 300,000 electric lease returns expected in 2026 alone, and many hundreds of thousands more every year thereafter just as used values fall and fuel prices climb. For dealers and buyers alike, that volatility could turn what looks like a resale disaster on paper into one of the biggest affordability opportunities the car market has seen in years.

Nineteen Eighty-Three was a great year for cinema. Scarface. The Big Chill. The Outsiders. Risky Business. The Right Stuff. Videodrome. Return of the Jedi. And to represent the year he was born, Lobster picked… this movie. Based on their breakout characters from the sketch comedy show SCTV, Dave Thomas and Rick Moranis star as Canadian brothers Bob and Doug McKenzie in this take (off, eh?) on Hamlet. Something is rotten in Ontario at the Elsinore Brewery, and it isn't just about live mice in the bottles - there's also the nefarious plans of Max Von Sydow's Brewmeister Smith. Bob and Doug try to get to the bottom of the issue, and to the bottoms of many, many bottles of beer in this cult classic, which The Globe and Mail named as one of the best Canadian comedy films ever made. Now us hoseheads are taking off to the Great White North to sample Strange Brew! Beauty, eh?   For more geeky podcasts visit GonnaGeek.com    You can find us on iTunes under ''Legends Podcast''.

Growing up in Huntington Beach, California, Dave Thomas was all about that adrenaline rush…. Surfing, motocross, snowboarding, women, fighting, and partying. He was athletic and ambitious, with plenty of talent and chances, but a wild lifestyle and poor choices led him to lose it all.Beneath the tough exterior was a guy with a heart, struggling with his own addiction while witnessing his father's battle with meth. Trying to stay strong, Dave learned early on to conceal his feelings, thinking that true strength meant never showing any weakness.By the end of 2016, everything took a turn. Getting sober was just the start but surrendering to Christ changed everything.Now, Dave is a husband and father of three, discovering what it really means to be there for his kids, a loyal husband, and a man guided by God. His life is now centered around faith, family, discipline, and service.As an online coach, Dave supports others in rebuilding their bodies, minds, and faith, showing that redemption is real and freedom is achievable.
