Shue's body showed signs of brutal mutilation—his chest was mutilated and his finger amputated in an act of twisted, surgical, precision, and duct tape dangled from his wrists.Officially ruled a suicide, the case left behind more questions than answers.In this episode of The Book of the Dead, we dive deep into one of the most baffling and controversial military deaths in modern history. Was Colonel Shue suffering a mental health crisis—or was he killed for financial gain?We explore the forensic inconsistencies, the 3 autopsy reports, and the voices still fighting for justice.Connect with us on Social Media!You can find us at:Instagram: @bookofthedeadpodX: @bkofthedeadpodFacebook: The Book of the Dead PodcastTikTok: BookofthedeadpodOr visit our website at www.botdpod.comFeaturing a promo for Mystery Frequency:Turn your dial to find the frequency of the past.

Ready to go deeper? Today's episode is the inaugural roundtable discussion where The Narrative podcast hosts are joined by experts to take a deep dive into a particularly complex topic–equipping you with the understanding necessary to make informed decisions as a Christian. Odds are you've likely seen the heavy media bias against Ohio's school choice expansion this past year, extolling the cost, claiming it's a misuse of taxpayer funds, and decrying private schools as the lesser education option. Aaron Churchill and Rabbi Yitz Frank join CCV's Ohio Christian Education Network Executive Director Troy McIntosh and podcast hosts CCV President Aaron Baer and Communications Director Mike Andrews to unpack why these common anti-school choice arguments are based on cherry-picked data or fail to consider the most important factor in school choice--parental satisfaction.

A whopping 40,000 spectators gathered at Burkhart Hill in Dayton, Ohio, to witness the first-ever All American Soapbox Derby on August 19th, 1934. Hundreds of kids, aged 10 to 15, raced in homemade cars built from recycled materials and old pram and bike wheels, all powered solely by gravity. The event originated in 1933 when young William Condit and his friends were encouraged by his father to organise a race, which drew the attention of the Dayton Daily News. Myron Scott, a photographer for the paper, saw the potential for a larger event, leading to the first official race in 1934, with 362 children participating, creating a local sensation. In this episode, Arion, Rebecca and Olly explain how the sport snowballed into a national obsession; reveal that girls as well as boys played an early role in the contest; and explain how a cheating scandal in 1973 nearly saw the wheels come off....

The Big Red Machine was a talented team that was built around young players like Pete Rose, Johnny Bench, and Tony Perez.Free agency has made it difficult for teams to build dynasties, as players often move from team to team.Analytics can be useful in baseball, but the best managers still rely on their instincts and the eye test.Leadership and veteran presence are important factors in a team's success.Hal McCoy's favorite managers are Lou Piniella and Jack McKeon.Hal McCoy has fond memories of covering the Reds and has regrets about missing his sons' athletic events.Hal McCoy prefers LaRosa's over Cassano's, Skyline over Gold Star, and United Dairy Farmers over Graeter's.Sound Bites"I may have been the only sportswriter ever to tell a manager he was fired.""I wrote a column saying, you know, it was good that Joe was leaving.

On the evening of October 6, 1898, forty-eight-year-old George Saxton, brother of First Lady Ida McKinley, was riding his bike to the home of his lady friend Eva Althouse when an assailant dressed in black emerged from the shadows and fired two shots. Wounded, George crawled towards Eva's house and had just reached the front steps when the shooter approached and fired two more shots, killing him almost instantly.Within hours of Saxton's death, his former mistress, Anna George, was arrested and charged with first-degree murder. For more than a decade, Saxton and George had been carrying on a scandalous relationship that began as an illicit affair until Saxton successfully convinced George to divorce her husband, supposedly with promises to marry her. However, once she was a single woman again, Saxton's enthusiasm for marriage had cooled and over time his interest in Anna waned. Anna George's sensational arrest and trial dominated headlines for months and, as Saxton was extremely unpopular, many people sympathized with the accused woman and even reveled in Saxton's death. After an intense and closely watched three-week trial, Anna George was acquitted of the murder and soon after she faded out of the spotlight, leaving the murder of George Saxton officially unsolved to this day.Thank you to the glorious David White, of the Bring Me The Axe Podcast, for research!ReferencesAkron Beacon Journal. 1906.

Ohio State men's basketball beat reporter Adam Jardy recaps what was said at Chris Holtmann's latest press conference episode on the BuckeyeXtra basketball podcast. During this edition we talk about Sunday's upcoming charity game against the Dayton Flyers and speak with special guest David Jablonski from the Dayton Daily News regarding everything Dayton basketball.
Can “hidden workers” help alleviate Ohio's current workforce woes? Ohio's rock-bottom unemployment rate of 3.3% – lower even than the national average of 3.5% – is forcing employers to get creative in finding and hiring a workforce needed to keep the state's hot economy cooking. According to a recent Dayton Daily News report, Ohio has an enviable challenge: two job openings for every unemployed worker. So-called “hidden workers” might be part of a solution that's good for employers and great for workers. According to the Harvard Business Review, “hidden workers” may be formerly incarcerated individuals looking for a fresh start, workers facing disability challenges, older workers ready to return to the workforce, caregivers whose attention is also needed at home to provide childcare or eldercare, skilled immigrants lacking U.S. credentials, and returning veterans ready to contribute. They're a workforce eager to jump into the labor pool, yet many find themselves blocked by balky application processes, inflexible schedules, poor transportation, language struggles, and a host of other barriers. How can Central Ohio businesses open the employment door to “hidden” workers ready to re-join the state's workforce? The speakers are: Brent Orrell, Senior Fellow, The American Enterprise Institute And Lisa Patt-McDaniel, CEO, Workforce Development Board of Central Ohio The host is Archie Williamson, Founder and CEO of Diversified Systems, Inc. This forum was generously sponsored by JPMorgan Chase, Charter Communications, and The Ohio Chamber of Commerce and was supported by The Ellis. The livestream was presented by The Center for Human Kindness at The Columbus Foundation and The Columbus Dispatch. This forum was recorded before a live audience at The Ellis in Columbus, Ohio's historic Italian Village on September 27, 2023.
Every one of Ohio State's national championship seasons since 1950 but one has been led by a first-year starting quarterback. Is that just a coincidence, or is there something about a first-year starter that brings out the best in Buckeye football teams? And more importantly, will first-year starter Kyle McCord or Devin Brown be able to add to that championship history in 2023? Marcus Hartman of the Dayton Daily News just did a deep-dive on Buckeye football history to write about that. He joins host Tom Orr to discuss that and much more.This show is part of the Spreaker Prime Network, if you are interested in advertising on this podcast, contact us at https://www.spreaker.com/show/5626222/advertisement
Real Issues. Real Conversations. An Ohio Humanities Podcast.
County Lines is WYSO's series focusing on small towns and rural communities in the greater Dayton area. Funded by a grant from Ohio Humanities, Community Voices producer Renee Wilde travels down the highways and back roads to tell stories of country life that go beyond the stereotypes. This week, hear three short stories from County Lines about Ohio's rural-urban divide and the spaces in between. Listen to more stories from the series at wyso.org/county-lines.Act 1: Although the term Urban Sprawl was coined in the 1930's, by the ‘70's, it was a hot topic, as increasingly more rural areas, and farmland, were divided up and paved over into strip malls and subdivisions. This spreading ring around our cities where urban sprawl is happening is officially known as the Rural-Urban Fringe. Today on County Lines, producer Renee Wilde takes us there.Act 2: Looking out over the rolling farm fields from the front porch of his 94 acre farm in Gambier, located in Knox county, former Kenyon College professor and former Director of the Rural Life Center, Howard Sacks reflects on what the definition of rural character is, and what it means to him.Act 3: Steven Conn, the W.E. Smith Professor of History at Miami University in Oxford, Ohio, is a regular contributor to the Dayton Daily News and the Huffington Post and a frequent lecturer in the US and around the world on a variety of topics. He's also the editor of Origins: Current Events in Historical Perspective. His most recent book is Americans Against the City: Anti-Urbanism in the 20th Century. Today, he shares his thoughts about attitudes and public policy toward immigrants in southwest Ohio.And, later this year, join WYSO and Ohio Humanities again for the forthcoming series The Ohio Country. Native men and women from different tribes and their allies—plus teachers, artists, scholars, parents, landowners, foresters, young people, and historians, too—will tell their stories about the about the lands above the Ohio River, known as the Ohio Country. You can listen in this feed, at WYSO.org, ohiohumanities.org, and in all those other places where you get podcasts.
From 2001 to 2019, Ohio State dominated its arch-rivals from Michigan, winning 17 of 19 matchups. But following a year without The Game in 2020, the Wolverines have rebounded with back-to-back wins over the Buckeyes. How has that changed the dynamics of the rivalry, and what will it mean moving forward?Marcus Hartman of the Dayton Daily News just wrote about that, including some thoughts from former Ohio State head coach Jim Tressel and former OSU quarterback and current ESPN commentator Kirk Herbstreit.Marcus joins host Tom Orr to share his thoughts on the state of the rivalry, and how things might change again next season with the arrival of the 12-team College Football Playoff.This show is part of the Spreaker Prime Network, if you are interested in advertising on this podcast, contact us at https://www.spreaker.com/show/5626222/advertisement

From Couch Potato to Ultra Marathoner? – The MOVEMENT Movement with Steven Sashen Episode 164 with Randy Kreill Cancer happened in late 2004, less than two years after Randy Kreill resigned from the work force with nearly 24 years towards a pension with the Dayton Daily News. After leaving the task of building his advertising sales "territory", he dove into full-time parenting to his three daughters. Since then, building a family with his wife, Megan, has been top priority and the greatest gift. After Randy's second thyroid cancer surgery, he asked the surgeon how a relatively healthy male gets that type of cancer at age 42. The doctor's answer was nonsensical; "for all we know it falls from the sky.” Randy smelled BS and searched high and low for answers, for years. Slowly his wellness improved. That years long search for the truth led him to "connecting most of the dots" after reading Born To Run in early 2010. While he'd already downsized homes in '99, during the post cancer years, his interest in minimalism grew as he learned of the health benefits of the Tarahumara lifestyle. He was searching for the ideal "hobby" and found it to be ultra-running, minimalist. As much a lifestyle as a "sport", Randy has completed 25 official 100 mile foot races, all in minimalist footwear, most in sandals sans socks, and all on a completely plant food fueled nutrition plan since December 10, 2010. He is currently working to finish building a home he's been in for well over 20 years, hoping to downsize again. As a full-time parent in the suburbs of Ohio, in 2011, Randy took up ultra-running and never stopped. "Born To Run, Experiments in Truth" began then, with no letting up. While the average ultra-runner is into it for about 3.5 years, he's run over 80 ultra marathons, with just one early overuse injury requiring medical intervention during the summer of '11. Randy has adopted the best habits of the Raramuri as a long term experiment. This includes their more cooperative and less competitive mindset, along with barefoot, ultra-distances, sandals, and plant sourced foods. Since that stress fracture to the fibula during his first 50K, he's avoided spending a penny with chiropractors and orthopedists. Randy has been a Xero super fan since the early days of "Invisible Shoes." He took "Run Free" literally and has been actively helping Xero Shoes grow via their affiliate program. In return, his many race fees are covered via referrals without impacting his family's budget. Not only does he get thousands of miles from a pair of Xero shoes or sandals, but he's also a regular wearer, tester, and reviewer, so he has a Xero product for virtually everything. Randy learned quickly that if his financial investment was low for running, he could run many more races in beautiful places, meeting wonderful people all along. Listen to this episode of The MOVEMENT Movement with Randy Kreill about transitioning from a couch potato to an ultra-marathoner. Here are some of the beneficial topics covered on this week's show: - How running barefoot makes you a better runner and promotes living a healthier life. - Why you should only focus on getting healthier, instead of the disease, if you're diagnosed with cancer. - How easy it is to lose sight of your health when you're consumed by your career. - Why animal sourced foods mess with your body's chemistry. - How you need to have a good diet to have healthy bones.

A long-time Dayton Daily News editor reconstructed his family history. There's heartbreak here and also inspiration.
Hap Cawood was for many years the editor of the editorial pages for the Dayton Daily News. Hap is the author of the novel "The Miler." His daughter Shuly is a prolific writer. Shuly writes poetry, prose, fiction, non-fiction, essays, short stories, and memoir. Over the years that I have hosted the program I have interviewed fathers and daughters but never at the same time. For example, James Lee Burke has made many appearances on the show. His daughter Alafair Burke has too. I would love to interview them together. I doubt that will ever happen though. When I had the chance to have Hap and Shuly together in the studio I knew that it could be something special. I surprised them when I suggested that perhaps they might want to interview one another. I did not give them any advance warning about my plans. Even so, they still agreed to do it. So that's what we did!
Vick Mickunas shares his commentary he wrote for the Dayton Daily News.
Today's episode is a history-themed one, and just as a fair warning we will be talking about Nazi POWs who were held at Wright-Patterson AFB. The story is a fascinating one though and my guest, Kathleen Caffrey, does a great job of discussing the nuances of it. It's a story though that I hadn't heard about until I read it in the Dayton Daily News, where she published her first citizen-journalism piece, which you can find here: https://www.daytondailynews.com/local/green-creatures-at-wright-patt-german-pows-created-artwork-in-the-40s/NISWFRH3TRCZ7JPWCMNXDGSZZE/ If you enjoyed this episode, please subscribe, write a review, share it with a friend, and follow us on our other social media outlets: Facebook - https://www.facebook.com/discoverydaytonpodcast Instagram - https://www.instagram.com/discoverdaytonpodcast/ Tumblr - https://www.tumblr.com/blog/view/discoverdaytonpodcast YouTube - https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCPwEbNtBwp4qvqGhDCX7y4A TikTok - https://www.tiktok.com/@discoverdaytonpodcast If you'd like to submit a guest request to be on the show, visit our website at www.discoverdaytonpodcast.com and select the "Be a Guest" option under the pages tab.

It's Friday, July 15, 2022, and this week your news roundup episode is coming to you from Sarajevo, Bosnia & Herzegovina! Your news and events, however, are from Dayton. As always, there's a lot happening tonight, so be sure to listen soon so you can hear about all of the cool thing happening this weekend and beyond! Show transcript: Hello and welcome to the Discover Dayton Podcast, the show that's all about the Gem City's past, present, and future. My name is Arch Grieve and I'm your host, and today I'm actually recording this episode six hours ahead of you in Sarajevo, one of Dayton's sister cities, where I'll be through almost the end of the month, so you might hear unfamiliar sounds, like the water running next to me. It's a beautiful city and you should visit! But today of course is Friday, which means it's time for your news roundup episode, where I read the news so you don't have to, so stay tuned for that as well as upcoming events in just a moment. And now for last week's news: Early voting for Ohio's August primary started this week and election security is a bigger concern than ever. Montgomery County Board of Elections infrastructure engineer Adam Lawson says security is an every-day concern, not just on election days. According to Lawson, Dayton's election cyber-security is strong, but attackers are always changing and evolving, so security measures also have to continue to grow. Ransomware is of particular concern lately. More traditional security measures are in place as well, such as keeping voting machines under lock and key, video cameras all around voting and counting areas, and ensuring that members of both major parties are present at all times. When auditing the results of the May 3rd primary, Montgomery County found the results to be 100% accurate. The county is also participating in a pilot program with the state of Ohio to further upgrade their security measures. Premier Health's Barbershop Health Clinics will be running through August for anyone interested. These clinics aim to raise awareness of chronic illnesses and promote healthy living in Black communities in the Miami Valley. There will be food compliments of Sugarcreek Food Truck, various health screenings, and free fresh produce. To see when and where the clinics will be, visit premierhealth.com. The City of Dayton is seeking grants to construct a footbridge across the intersection of U.S. 35 and Abbey Avenue. Many pedestrians, including children, have to cross 8 lanes of interstate traffic to get to the West Branch library, which has area leaders worried. Dayton City Commissioner Shenise Turner-Sloss in particular spoke about the danger recently on social media. There are some short-term safety measures in place, but city officials say a permanent solution would be much better. Though there is no record of pedestrian crashes at the Abbey-35 intersection, other accidents are fairly common. Many motorists drive much faster than the 50 mph speed limit and the Dayton Daily News observed many running red lights. Further development in the area will likely only increase pedestrian traffic. Public works is seeking $3.5 million for a bridge over the interstate. The Comprehensive Economic Development Strategy, a plan over one year in the making, has been approved and already secured about $13 million in federal funding for the Dayton region. The CEDS was developed with input from business owners, government leaders, and community members in partnership with the federal Economic Development Administration. The new five-year plan includes equity and inclusiveness as core values, a first for the plan which was last updated in 2012. Greater West Dayton Incubator director Whitney Barkley believes the program will help small businesses most with sustainability by making certain resources more readily available. The CEDS laid out five priorities for the area: workforce development, infrastructure, diverse communities, small business support, and a resilient, diversified economy. The Dayton Metro Library Main Branch is running art workshops through the month of July as part of the Ocean of Possibilities summer challenge theme. Artist in residence Delora Buford-Buchanan will be transforming the Opportunity Space windows into a 3D aquarium, and you can help her fill it up with creatures of all sorts. There are five remaining workshop days and registration is not required. For more information, check out dayton-metrolibrary.org/programs. Crime is down a bit overall in the Dayton area, but Dayton Police Chief Kamran Afzal says it's no time to celebrate. While crime overall is down 1% and Part 1 violent crime is down 10%, other offenses are on the rise, and Dayton remains high in crime in Ohio. Homicides and aggravated robberies are up from last year, though aggravated assaults and non-aggravated robberies are down. Dayton Police noted that violence most often occurs between people who know each other, like family or romantic partners, and rarely happens between strangers. There have been a number of fairly successful gun reduction initiatives in the Miami Valley, bringing firearm-related incidents down by quite a bit. The most common and rising crimes are burglaries, both in homes and of automobile parts. Police encourage locking of doors and installation of security cameras and extra outdoor lighting if possible to deter would-be thieves. The House of Bread is looking for volunteers to help serve warm meals to the Dayton community every day between 11:30 a.m. and 1:30 p.m. Anyone over the age of 16 who is fully vaccinated is welcome to help out, and you can e-mail JudithMoore-HOB@gmail.com to sign up. They are also always accepting food and money donations, for more information about that visit houseofbread.org. Link: Dayton Bike Share recently received a shipment of 140 new electric bikes that are expected to be rolled out in the Miami Valley within the next week or so. This more than doubles the ride-share's bike supply which can be found at 37 Link hubs across the Miami Valley. The electronically-assisted vehicles make riding easier, especially up hills, and are checked out about twice as often as Link's non-electric models. Also, every Wednesday in July, the unlocking fee will be waived and you can ride for one hour for free. The Dayton Police Department's plans to implement automated license plate readers in the city may have hit a few roadblocks as a community coalition raises concerns over the department's transparency. There is a public hearing scheduled for July 20th regarding the technology, but the Coalition on Public Protection is asking that it be delayed, saying Dayton PD has not yet shared crucial and impartial information proving that plate readers will have an impact on reducing crime and furthering other law enforcement goals. Other members of the community have pointed out the negative impact the implementation could have on minority communities and privacy in general. Last year the Dayton City Commission passed a resolution requiring Dayton police to publish impact reports on proposed surveillance initiatives before they are considered for acquisition. Opponents of the technology say they have not yet done that for automated plate readers, pointing out that the published reports contain more opinions and unchecked claims than data, and what data there is was not provided by independent, non-law enforcement sources. The Dayton planning board has approved the plan put forward for the old Good Samaritan hospital site. Construction will now go forward on the facility including a YMCA, various health clinics, nonprofits, and an athletic field. Many have praised the plan and the benefits it will bring to the community, but some believe it doesn't quite reach the vision many in the community had for the space. Planning board member Matt Sauer called the plan “unambitious,” and he's not alone in wishing that the facility had, for example, a full-service medical center. Others have raised concerns about parking and pedestrian safety, pointing out that the plan includes a large parking lot even though the site contains an unused parking garage. The YMCA of Greater Dayton will occupy about half the space, with the rest taken up by Premier Health, Wright State, United Way, Care-Source, County Corp, and Goodwill Easter Seals. More tenants may also be planned for the future. The Dayton Foundation awarded over $1.2 million in charitable grants last year to 43 Miami Valley organizations. Large grant recipients included the YMCA of Greater Dayton for the Good Sam site, the Dayton Art institute, Girl Scouts of Western Ohio, Greater Dayton Union Cooperative Initiative, WYSO Public Radio, and St. Anne's Hill Historic Society. They also provided smaller grants to 23 organizations for quicker, more immediate projects and improvements. To learn more about the Dayton Foundation and its grant programs, visit daytonfoundation.org. Dayton Birria Fest is happening tonight from 4 to 8 p.m. at the Yellow Cab Tavern.

Today is Friday, June 10th, 2022, which means that today is your weekly news roundup. As always, a lot happened last week that you'll want to hear about, and there's a lot of stuff to do in Dayton tonight, this weekend, and beyond, so listen soon so you don't miss out on what's happening in Dayton. As always, you can find the full transcript for News Roundup episodes on the podcast website at discoverdaytonpodcast.com. Organizations mentioned in this episode include: Dayton Public Schools Greater Dayton RTA Dayton International Airport Dayton Daily News Ohio Statehouse Wright-Patterson Regional Council of Governments Central State University Wright State University University of Cincinnati Sinclair Community College Day Air Ballpark City of Dayton Tumble, LLC Blind Bob's The Dublin Pub Thai 9 Lily's WheatPenny Salar Franco's Trolley Stop Van Buren Room Table 33 Mudlick Tap House Dayton Beer Company Old Scratch Jimmie's Ladder 11 Fifth Street Brewpub Coco's Bistro Basil's on Market Angie's Firehouse Tavern Carmichael's Slyder's Toxic Brew Company Levitt Pavilion Bribing Senators Neil deGrasse Tyson Dayton Live For Dayton by Dayton Mike Bankhead Dayton Masonic Center St. Anne's Hill Historic Society St. Anne's Cheese Company Evan's Bakery Dayton Metro Library Patterson Pub Front Street Liederkranz-Turner German Club Dayton Jewish Cultural Festival Dayton Jazz Festival Paul Laurence Dunbar House Isaiah Sharkey The Loft Theatre Dayton Celtic Festival Dayton Philharmonic Oregon District Mumu Fresh Transcript: Hello and welcome to the Discover Dayton podcast, the show that's all about the Gem City's past, present, and future. I'm your host, Arch Grieve, and today is Friday, June 10th, 2022, which means this is your weekly news roundup episode, where I read the news (so you don't have to). A lot has happened in the past week, including some local Dayton organizations receiving state funding, Dayton getting a new state senator next year who it never voted for, and a troubling statistic for local letter carriers. There's also a lot happening in the coming days that you're going to want to hear about, so stay tuned for your weekly news roundup episode, which starts in just a moment. And now for last week's news: Well Welcome Stadium is getting an $11 million renovation, which Dayton Public Schools officials say they hope will help make it a more attractive venue for other state and national athletic events. The stadium opened in 1949 and had its last renovation in 2008, which was around $3 million. While the project won't be completed for over a year, DPS does expect to have new turf, track, and lighting to be ready in time for fall games this year. One addition is going to be a new hall of fame of past DPS athletes. The groundbreaking took place this past Wednesday and the renovations have already begun. The Greater Dayton RTA has announced that 10 lines that were suspended during the Covid-19 pandemic will be permanently canceled, while 11 others are being reconfigured. The move comes as the RTA is facing a driver shortage and decreased ridership. Affected bus routes include routes 3, 5, 23, 24, 64, 65, 66, X1A, X1B, and X5. Starting later this fall, however, the RTA will be switching from having separate bus route schedules for weekdays vs. weekends to having the same schedule every day for their bus routes. There are also currently 50 job openings for bus drivers, and today from 7-11am and tomorrow from 10am to 2pm at the University of Dayton arena there will be a job fair for people who are interested in applying where you can apply to become a big-bus driver (which requires a CDL) or a small bus driver (which does not). The coolest thing about the event is that you can actually have an opportunity to drive one of the buses, so I may end up going and applying too, who knows. Visit iriderta.org for more information. And, speaking of busing and Dayton Public Schools, DPS is reversing a previous decision to end the practice of giving RTA passes to high school students and is now saying that high school students will, in fact, be receiving RTA passes to get to school. DPS also explained that because high school students will no longer receive busing from DPS, they can attend any school within the district and are not bound by the quadrant system that is in place for elementary and middle schools where students must attend schools that are within the quadrant in which they live. If you have questions about busing you can call the Student Enrollment Center at 937-542-5555. Well if you're flying out of Dayton International Airport anytime soon just be warned, the airport recently had an airfare hike that was not only among the highest in the country, it IS the highest price hike in the country. The study comes from cheapair.com, and finds that on average Dayton airport flyers are paying 42% more per ticket than last year, which averages out to $109 per flight. The increase comes as part of a trend of smaller airports increasing their rates across the country. After seeing demand drop during the pandemic, it has been on the rise recently, but airlines are struggling to find people for the reopened positions that were cut during the pandemic. One thing that I didn't realize until I was reading a Dayton Daily News story this week was that once the redistricting changes go into effect next year, most of Dayton will have a new state senator who it didn't vote for, which will be State Senator Niraj Antani. This is due to the fact that the majority of what is now Senator Stephen Huffman's district is being transferred to Niraj Antani's, although only until new maps can be drawn up for the 2024 election. However, if Dayton is redistricted once more to another district that does not have a senator up for re-election, it's possible Dayton could go for eight years without being able to vote for their state senator. Antani is a very conservative Republican state senator from Miamisburg who has the distinction of being the state's first Indian-American senator in Ohio history. In related news, the Ohio Statehouse has passed a bill funding $3.5 billion in state capital projects, with $18.6 million of that funding going to Montgomery County. Of that, $1.7 million will go towards projects at Central State, Wright State, and the University of Cincinnati. The biggest recipient by far, however, is Sinclair Community College, which (for the sake of full disclosure), is where I also work part-time. Sinclair though is getting $13 million, with $5 million going towards Advanced Manufacturing and Skilled Trades training hubs, and $4 million to cover the cost of installing fire sprinkler systems. The Dayton International Airport and Sinclair also requested $250K for an aircraft mechanic training center, which was fully funded, unlike some other local projects, including a $5 million request by the City of Dayton for Day Air Ballpark, which only received a tenth of that. Well there's a new local government entity in town, or towns, rather. The Wright-Patterson Regional Council of Governments came together recently and is made up of six communities: Dayton, Beavercreek, Fairborn, Riverside, Huber Heights, and Bath Township. The Council will have powers similar to Ohio municipalities, including making purchases, passing zoning laws, and establishing Tax Increment Financing districts. US Representative Mike Turner helped secure $1 million in funding for the creation of the Council, which is aimed at improving the lives of US Air Force members around the base. The council is composed of members who are local city managers or other high-ranking administrators in their respective communities. This next story brings back some uncomfortable memories I have being a former Dayton Power and Light meter reader years ago, but apparently Dayton ranks 22nd in the country for dogs biting postal workers, with 18 postal worker dog bites happening last year. Ohio itself actually ranks third in the country as a state for dog bites, with Columbus coming in on top with 31 letter carrier dog bites. So please, make sure your dogs are taken care of properly. I can attest from personal experiences that it's really not fun getting bit. Well if you're lazy like I am, although possibly have more disposable income, then there's a new local business that will come to your home and pick up your clothes and wash them and return them to you. The business is called Tumble LLC, and it was started by Miami University classmates Jeffrey Caldwell II and Charles Wheeler III. The new business recently received a Better Business Bureau award, the Spark Award for Entrepreneurship, which “celebrates emerging entrepreneurial businesses whose leaders demonstrate a high level of character, generate a culture that is authentic about its mission and genuinely connects with their community." The business is partnering with local laundromats to help cut down on their own overhead and to schedule a pickup you can visit tumblego.com. And finally, while not exactly news, it was noted by my friend Alexis Larsen in a Dayton Daily News article last week that it's patio season again in Dayton, so here are some great places to visit that have great patios where you can grab a drink and something to eat. In the Oregon District for food and drink you've got Blind Bob's, The Dublin Pub, Thai 9, Lily's, WheatPenny, Salar, Franco's, and Trolley Stop. If you're just looking for drinks, Bell of Dayton's Van Buren Room is a great place to visit as well. Outside the Oregon District but still downtown there's Table 33, Mudlick Tap House, Dayton Beer Company (which has a cool new rooftop bar), Old Scratch, Jimmie's Ladder 11, Fifth Street Brewpub, Coco's Bistro, and Basil's on Market, if you want to have a cool view of the fountains. A little further outside of downtown and you can check out Angie's Firehouse Tavern, Carmichael's, and Slyder's as well. That's it for your local news, and now, here's what's happening tonight, this weekend, and beyond: One thing happening all weekend is the celebration of Toxic Brew Company's 9th birthday. Events kicked off yesterday with a special tapping of their Bubblegum Blonde and Coffee Belgian Golden Ale beers. Today they're tapping their Melon ISO-Heaven, and tomorrow they're tapping their Mango Magnum Hop PIPA. Also there will be Chef Dane and on Sunday you can hear music by Cooley the Curator. Toxic opens at 2pm today and noon on the weekends. So happy birthday, Toxic! Tonight, June 10th, the St. Helen Spring Festival is kicking off from 6:30-11pm at the St. Helen's Parish on Granville Place. The event continues this weekend and features rides, food, a flea market, beer garden, and more, and is free to attend. Also happening tonight at the Levitt Pavilion, The New Respects will be performing a free concert from 7-9pm. Their music features danceable fusions of pop, soul, and rock music, and they recently released an EP entitled “Don't Panic.” You can keep the music going by visiting Blind Bob's afterwards starting at 9pm for a show and EP release from Bribing Senators. The EP is called Triple Imperial EP, and the show is called Five Years for 5 Songs. Famed astrophysicist Neil deGrasse Tyson is also in Dayton tonight, Friday June 10th, where he will be performing a show that discusses what all of your favorite science movies get wrong. Tickets range in price from $55 to $135 and are available at daytonlive.org.

There will be music, including opening act Mike Bankhead, who was a guest on this show back on episode 21, so check that out too if you haven't already! Rapper K. Carter is hosting and headlining the event. The Dayton Masonic Center is hosting a comedy event fundraiser tomorrow starting at 7pm that will feature comedians Caroline Rhea, Craig Shoemaker, and Cole Cosby.

The tour is $17 and your ticket gets you into the Tea Garden, which includes a selection of drinks and refreshments. If you miss it, you'll have to wait for another two years because it's only a biannual event. For tickets, search for St. Anne's Hill Historic Society on EventBrite.com. On Saturday from 11am-1pm you can participate in the Ethnic Cheese and Dessert Workshop at Evan's Bakery, which is being put on in partnership with the St. Anne's Cheese Company, who I had on the podcast as well recently on episode 27. This next workshop will highlight Turkish cheese and tickets are still available for $29 at stannescheeseco.com. Or, if you have more of a sweet tooth, you can also on Saturday go to the Downtown Dayton Library location, where you can participate in their Frequent Chocolate Eater Chocolate Eating series. For $25, you can learn about single origin craft beans and, of course, taste some chocolate. And, if you're really hungry you could actually do the cheese workshop followed by this one, because it doesn't start until 2pm. It goes until 3:30pm. Visit eatmorechocolate.eventbrite.com for tickets. If you're into bourbon and cigars, you may want to visit the Patterson Pub on Saturday evening, where for $50 you can participate in their blind bourbon tasting, which includes 5 pours and 3 mini cocktails, as well as a cigar.

Today is Friday, June 3rd, 2022. So today, of course, is your weekly news roundup, where I read the news (so you don't have to). A lot has happened in the past week, and there's a lot of entertainment planned for this weekend and beyond, so don't wait to listen to this episode! As always, the transcripts for the news roundup episode is on the website at www.discoverdaytonpodcast.com. Please be sure to leave a review and share this episode with a friend! Groups and organizations mentioned in this episode include: Ohio Statehouse Greater Dayton RTA Dayton Police City of Dayton On Purpose Academy and Mentoring Center Miami Valley Child Development Centers Dayton Daily News Montgomery County Democratic Party Vegan It IZ Eats RI International Montgomery County Alcohol, Drug, and Mental Health Services Dayton Ale Trail Yellow Cab Tavern Dayton Jewish Film Festival Front Street Galleries Dayton Society of Artists Dayton Pride Festival Blind Bob's Levitt Pavilion Dayton Playhouse PFLAG Dayton Rubi Girls The Brightside Shadyside Clemmer Bribing Senators Yardboss St. Helen Spring Festival The New Respects Neil deGrasse Tyson Dayton Live Dayton Jazz Festival Five Rivers MetroParks Transcript: Hello and welcome to the Discover Dayton podcast, the show that's all about the Gem City's past, present, and future. I'm your host, Arch Grieve, and today Friday, which means it's time for your weekly news roundup, where I read the news so you don't have to. A lot happened recently, including the RTA announcing free weekend summer rides, Gettysburg Avenue being put on a “road diet,” and more. And as always there's a lot going on this weekend and beyond, including Pride Month celebrations, so stay tuned for the news in just a moment. And now for last week's news in Dayton: Dayton City Commissioners spoke out recently against Mike Dewine and the Ohio Statehouse for legislation that legislators passed recently and that is now awaiting Governor Dewine's signature. House Bill 99 is a bill that would allow school teachers to be armed in school settings with as little as 24 hours of training. The commissioners also spoke out against past legislation that Mike Dewine has already signed into law, including a “stand your ground” law and legislation that enabled people to conceal carry without a permit. The commissioners pointed out that in the wake of the tragic Oregon District shootings three years ago, the governor promised to pass common-sense gun laws, which never materialized. Well if you're looking to save some money on gas, then you might want to hear about this next story. The Greater Dayton RTA is going to be offering free rides on weekends over the summer starting tomorrow, June 4th, and going through September 4th. The RTA is offering free rides on both its fixed-route buses and para-transit vehicles, and RTA officials say they hope that the cost of providing the free weekend rides will be offset by increased ridership, particularly as gas prices continue to increase. For more information, visit iriderta.org. If you remember last week I let you know about the curfew sweep that police would be doing last weekend. Well, the numbers are in and the police caught zero juveniles breaking curfew during last Friday's sweep, which police are touting as a success. The sweep primarily took place downtown but also included parks where juveniles are regularly observed congregating in. Well, the City of Dayton will be putting Gettysburg Avenue on a, quote, “diet,” to help reduce what city leaders call “automobile circus acts” and “hooning,” which is apparently a word used to describe reckless vehicle operation maneuvers like drifting and burnouts and the like. The diet consists of shrinking the roadway and decreasing the number of traffic lanes, which city leaders say is larger than it needs to be based on Dayton's current population. The changes would be reminiscent of what the city did to the area of Brown St. near UD and the city plans to take action immediately while simultaneously seeking funding for more long-term fixes. The city argues that the changes are needed because, since 2015, a 3.5-mile stretch of Gettysburg has been the location of over 1400 accidents, 59 serious injuries, and 10 fatalities, including a recent one that killed four people. The city is going to be seeking public input before making any decisions on permanent changes and plans to apply for a state infrastructure bank loan to help fund the project. The City of Dayton is planning to use some of its American Plan Rescue Act funds, $150,000 to be exact, to help fund a pre-school on wheels program. The program, known as Pop Up Preschool, seeks to provide preschool options for areas of the city that are preschool deserts. Kimberly Jarvis, director of the On Purpose Academy and Mentoring Center, which runs the Pop Up Preschool program, says she has the teachers that will be needed for the program but needs help with funding to convert RVs into mobile classrooms, which would serve between 9-12 students at a time and travel to two locations over the course of the school day. To learn more about the program, visit www.opamc.net/pup. In other childcare-related news, the City of Dayton is spending over half a million dollars to help consolidate four childcare centers in East Dayton under one roof. The $11 million building is being constructed on the site of the former Lincoln School in the Twin Towers neighborhood by Miami Valley Child Development Centers and will be known as the Lincoln Hill Child and Family Center. The school will serve 250 students, at least 90% of whom meet federal poverty guidelines. The MVCDC received the funds through moneys that the city got from a community development block grant and were awarded them through a competitive grant process. The new building will have 14 classrooms, office space, a community training space, and a full-service commercial kitchen. Well now that the Ohio redistricting process mess continues to result in anti-democratic outcomes, with the Dayton Daily News reporting recently that the new district boundaries will mean that some incumbents will be running unopposed in spite of the fact that the partisan voter makeup of those districts has changed due to the fact that Ohio's filing deadline has not been extended or re-opened since candidates filed their petitions in February. Since then, the districts have changed greatly in some instances. For example, Riverside recently went from a Republican-leaning district to the one represented by Dayton's state representative, Willis Blackshear, Jr. Similarly, the district represented by former Montgomery County Sheriff Phil Plummer added Trotwood and other Democrat-leaning areas and now favors Democrats, but he will be running unopposed in the general as no Democrat filed in what used to be a Republican-leaning district. Secretary of State LaRose says there's nothing he can do and that any changes in filing deadlines are set by law and must be made by the Ohio Statehouse. However, candidates may still file as independents without party affiliation if they do so by 4pm on August 1st, the day before the rescheduled primary will take place. Montgomery County Democratic Party Chairman Mark Owens called the claim by Republicans that there isn't time to re-open the process, quote, “ridiculous,” and called for a 10-day window for candidates to file in the newly redrawn districts. You can find out about your district by visiting findmydistrict.ohiosos.gov. Well if you're vegan, or just trying to reduce your meat consumption, you'll want to hear this news. There's a new vegan restaurant opening up at the 2nd Street Market called Vegan It IZ Eats, which is owned by Dayton native Rhea Adkins. It will have a rotating breakfast and lunch menu including things like jack fruit tacos, coconut bacon grilled cheese, chai french toast, and more. It will also carry meal prep options, granola, seasoning blends, nut milks, dressings, sauces, and a cookbook. You can visit veganitizeats.com for more information. A new crisis center for those experiencing mental health or substance abuse crises is going to be opening up in the Carillon neighborhood here in Dayton later this year if all goes to plan. The Crisis Now Receiving Center, which is a project of RI International and the Montgomery County Alcohol, Drug, and Mental Health Services (or ADAMHS), will open at Elizabeth Place. Individuals in crisis can call Montgomery County at 833-580-2255 to receive support. And finally, if you're like me and enjoy a good local craft beer, you'll want to check out my friend Alexis Larsen's article in the Dayton Daily News from this past Sunday's paper, which talks about the Dayton Ale Trail. There are 31 local breweries in and around Dayton that participate in the trail, and all you need to do to start is visit one of them and pick up your Dayton Ale Trail passport, which you can collect stamps in by visiting each of the breweries on the list and purchasing a beer. Dayton's breweries are on the list, as well as surrounding ones like Eudora, Lucky Star, and many more. Once you've visited all of the other 30 breweries, you can collect your final beer at the Yellow Cab Tavern in Dayton, where you'll be awarded a 16 oz. stainless steel pint glass. I've never made it to all of them in one year, but I think I'll make that a goal this year, so I hope you'll join me and maybe I'll see you around at one of them this summer. That's it for last week's news, and now here's what's going on in Dayton this weekend and beyond: The Dayton Jewish Film Festival kicked off yesterday, June 2nd, at the Dayton Art Institute with a screening of “That Orchestra With the Broken Instruments.” The remaining films, however, will be screened at The Neon movie theater downtown, with films running now through June 26th.

Organizations mentioned in this episode include: Dayton Police The FUDGE Foundation GDPM City of Dayton Fiver Rivers MetroParks Dayton International Peace Museum House of Bread Dayton NAACP Dayton Public Schools - Ponitz Equality Ohio Just Cakin' It Launch Dayton Dayton LGBT Center Dayton Theatre Guild The Nerve PNC Annex Dayton Live Schuster Center Wiley's Comedy Club Dayton Daily News Carillon Historical Park Bozack's Cocktail Lounge 1Eleven Flavor House Dayton Track Club St. Anne's Cheese Company Evan's Bakery RiverScape MetroPark Dublin Pub Tender Mercy Dayton Homecoming Branch and Bone Brightside Dayton Dayton Philharmonic Dayton Jewish Film Festival/Jewish Dayton Son Del Caribe Levitt Pavillion MojoFlo Wholly Grounds Coffee House Pecha Kucha Dayton 5/27/22 News Roundup Transcript: Hello and welcome to the Discover Dayton podcast, the show that's all about the Gem City's past, present, and future. I'm Arch Grieve and I'm your host, and today's episode is the weekly news roundup for Friday, May 27th, 2022. A lot happened recently, including stories about rental assistance for Montgomery County residents, a new mobile culinary STEAM lab for kids, and some local DPS students earning national recognition. Next week is also the start of Pride Months, and there are a lot of events happening in relation to that that you'll want to know about, so happy almost-Pride Month to you and please stay tuned for last week's news in just a moment. And now for this week's news: Well if you're listening to this and you're under the age of 18, you should be aware that the Dayton police are going to be conducting a juvenile curfew sweep tonight, which is to say that any juvenile that is out in public without a guardian from 11pm to 5am will be arrested and charged with a misdemeanor, as will the youth's guardians. This comes in response to the fact that juvenile arrests have been up greatly this year over last year, with there being 774 juvenile arrests so far this year already, which is three times what it was last year at the same time. This is the first curfew sweep police have done in years, and there are many critics of the practice as well who argue that enforcement can be discriminatory and unfairly impact black and brown communities and can lead to increased tensions between police and those communities. In the wake of the tragic shooting earlier this week of 19 children and two adults at a Texas elementary school, a local man, Dion Green, whose father, Derrick Fudge, was killed in the Oregon District shooting back in 2019, is traveling there to provide support for the families. Green started the FUDGE Foundation to honor his father's memory. Through the help of donations, Green travels to places where mass shootings have occurred to help the families who are dealing with trauma in the aftermath of those shootings. Green is a survivor, victim, and father who explains that the victims of the shooting are a part of his family now and argues for gun-control laws and background checks and getting rid of assault rifles. You can learn more about the foundation at www.fudgefoundation.org. Well if you're a Montgomery County resident who is in need of rental assistance, there's good news for you from the Montgomery County Commission, which recently approved $1 million in rental assistance to local residents. A county spokesperson explained that the money will go to people who are late on their rent and also receive HUD assistance. The money will be funneled through GDPM, or Greater Dayton Premier Management, which specializes in low-income housing, and will be working with renters who have the greatest amount of debt first. To contact GDPM, call 937-910-7500 or visit gdpm.org. The City of Dayton may be giving about 58 acres of vacant land to the Five Rivers MetroParks soon. The land in question is what remains of the Foxton Court Apartments, which were damaged beyond repair by the 2019 Memorial Day tornadoes. In exchange, the property would be remediated by Five Rivers MetroParks, which is expected to cost $1.9 million. The land used to be a tree nursery, although the nursery hasn't been utilized since the early 2000s. The city explained that the land in question is in a flood zone as well and should not be redeveloped. Later today the Dayton International Peace Museum will be holding a ceremony to celebrate its move into a new space at 10 N. Ludlow St. at the Courthouse Square. Some of the museum's board members and founders will speak at the event and attendees can participate in preview tours of the museum after the ceremony. Friday, June 3rd is the museum's official re-open date, however, and their first guest exhibit is “MLK In Color.” Visit daytonpeacemuseum.org for more information about the museum. Well while I don't often do national news on here, there is one national news item that may be affecting you right now without you knowing it, and that is that Jif brand peanut butter has been linked to salmonella outbreaks and the FDA has issued a recall starting on May 20th. If you have Jif peanut butter with lot numbers between 1274425 and 2140425, you should definitely not eat it, and you can also go online to Jif's website at jif.com and enter in your lot code number for your peanut butter and if it's a match for one of the contaminated jars, they'll send you a coupon for a replacement product. The House of Bread here in Dayton is seeking a couple of volunteers to help with food distribution from 10:30am to 1:30pm each day. Applicants must be fully vaccinated and be at least 16 years of age. You can email Judith Moore to sign up at moorehob@gmail.com, and that's Moore with an “e.” The City of Dayton is setting aside $7.6 million of the $138 million that it received in federal funding through the American Rescue Plan Act to help minority-owned businesses in Dayton, most of which will be going towards non-profits that are geared towards helping build up Dayton's minority-owned business community. Of that, $3 million is going towards the creation of an organization that will help business owners, and $1.5 million will go towards the awarding of micro-grants that go up to $10,000. A little over $500,000 of the money is being awarded to five local organizations, including a vaccine clinic, two restaurants, a law firm, and a childcare center. Some groups, such as the Dayton NAACP, however, are critical of the disbursement of funds, arguing that having just 5.6% of those funds go towards minority-owned businesses isn't enough. Well, some local Dayton Public Schools students recently traveled to Texas to participate in the Business Professionals of America National Leadership Conference in Dallas. That group of students are the Ponitz CTC Broadcast News Production Team, who went on to place in the top 10 in the country for news production, so congratulations to them! In an update to an interview I had with Equality Ohio back on episode 12 of this podcast, the Ohio Statehouse recently heard testimony in a committee hearing last week from two individuals who are part of what the Southern Poverty Law Center labels as hate groups. I would encourage you to go and listen to that episode to learn more about proposed Bill 454, which seeks to end gender-affirming care for LGBTQ+ youth. House members also heard testimony recently on House Bill 598, which seeks to criminalize abortions should Roe v. Wade be overturned by the Supreme Court and would make it a felony for doctors to perform abortions and does not include exceptions for rape, incest, or even the mother's health. The Supreme Court's final ruling is expected to be announced late next month. And finally, to end on a good news note, there's a new business in Dayton called “Just Cakin' It,” which is a mobile STEAM dessert lab. The mobile lab is the brainchild of Dayton Native, Courtney Barrett, and operates Monday through Thursday and serves kids ages 5 through 16. Barrett has been baking since 2017 and the business stems from her work as a substitute teacher and her work in the prison system, where she saw childhood trauma and lack of positive outlets lead to incarceration for many people. She hopes that her business can help young people see the value of education. She was helped in getting her business of the ground by participating in the UD Flyer Pitch Competition, which helped provide seed money for the business. She also participates in the Early Risers Academy through Launch Dayton, which I recently talked to KeAnna Daniels about on this podcast in episode 29. She's looking to partner with schools and other local organizations moving forward, and you can learn more by visiting www.justcakinit.com to find out about educational opportunities and classes. And now here's what's happening next week and beyond: Well if you're looking for something fun and free to do tonight, you can check out the movie night at the Dayton LGBTQ Center, which is screening the movie “Bohemian Rhapsody,” which is about Queen frontman Freddie Mercury's life. Visit daytonlgbtcenter.org for more information.

Tickets are going for $22, and you can visit daytonlive.org for more ticket information. There's also a performance on Saturday and Sunday. Yet another theater option is at the Schuster Center, where you can see a production of “Charlie and the Chocolate Factory,” tonight from 8-10:30pm.

Tickets go for $45 and can be purchased online at wileyscomedy.com. Well this weekend on Saturday, May 28th, is National Burger Day, and my friend Alexis Larsen wrote recently in the Dayton Daily News about some of the places locally where you can get a great burger, so I encourage you to check that out! My favorite on the list is probably Slyder's though. This Sunday, May 29th, at Carillon is the Dayton Heritage Festival, which goes from 12:00-8:30pm. It's free for Dayton History members and $12 per adult or $8 per child. The event celebrates Dayton's history and features special activities, costumed interpreters, and more.

And I'm not sure why Tuesday the 31st is so popular in Dayton, but you can also go to the Dublin Pub for their 4-course Bourbon and Cigars Dinner. The event goes from 6-9pm and is a bit pricey at $80 in advance or $90 at the door, but in return, you get a four-course meal featuring hand-rolled cigars from Foundation Cigar, bourbon from Old Forrester, and swag and door prizes. RSVP by emailing tonyg@dubpub.com. Moving on from Tuesday finally, on Wednesday at Tender Mercy in Dayton from 5-7pm there's a Dayton Homecoming event happening.

Full show transcript available at discoverdaytonpodcast.com. Today's Friday, May 20th, 2022, and it's time for your weekly News Roundup episode, where I read the news so you don't have to. A lot happened this past week, including stories about an uptick in Covid cases, an EPA report about our local waterways, and new inductees into the Dayton Walk of Fame. There's also a lot happening in the future, so you won't want to miss this episode. Things going on today actually start about 30 minutes from this episode's release, so tune in and listen now! Transcript: Hello and welcome to the Discover Dayton podcast, the show that's all about the Gem City's past, present, and future. I'm Arch Grieve and I'm your host, and today's episode is the weekly news roundup for Friday, May 20th, 2022. A lot happened recently, including stories about an uptick in Covid cases, an EPA report about our local waterways, and new inductees into the Dayton Walk of Fame. You won't want to miss it as there's a lot happening today, including in about 30 minutes from this episode's release, so tune in now! To start off this week's news I'd like to say Happy National Bike to Work Day! If you're listening to this before 7:00-9:00am you still have time to make it to the Five River MetroParks Bike to Work Day celebration, which is happening this morning. The first 500 riders to register and check in at the event receive a gift, and you can pre-register now online at MetroParks.org. The event takes place from 7:00-9:00am at the RiverScape Metro Park on Monument Ave. and features a free pancake breakfast, live music, a bike expo, and more, so hopefully I'll see you there! Well in a reminder that Covid-19 is still unfortunately with us, Coronavirus cases in Ohio have been going up steadily for the past 6 weeks in a row, with weekly cases being over 15,000, as reported about a week and a half ago. That's up a lot from where they were at the beginning of April, when the state averaged a little over 3,500 cases per week. According to the Ohio Department of Health, over 7 million Ohioans have gotten at least one shot, but only 3.56 million have received two shots and a booster. If you remember a while back me talking about Dayton Public Schools possibly reopening the World of Wonder school to serve students who are learning English as a second language, well that plan is now official after school board members voted unanimously to do so this past Tuesday. The school will be open to students in grades K-6 who live in Residence Park, but also open up to 12th grade for English language learners. Superintendent Lolli explained that the school will have separate English-native and English-learner classes, but that those will be combined during lunch, recess, and possibly classes like art and extracurriculars. Also in DPS news, if you're interested in mentoring a Dayton Public School student, DPS is starting the Transform Career Mentoring Program, which will match about 100 high school students with local mentors. Mentors will be matched with 10th and 11th graders to help them with decisions on things like colleges and careers and mentors and mentees are expected to connect for a minimum of five minutes per week. The locally-organized TEDxDayton event will be taking place on October 14th, which is a ways out, but more pressingly they are now accepting applications for speakers. TED is a nonprofit dedicated to spreading ideas, and TED stands for Technology, Entertainment, and Design. So, if you're interested in being a TEDx speaker, you can apply at tedxdayton.com. Applying is no guarantee to speak, and I would know because I've applied and not made it in the past, but a volunteer-run committee will review your application if you apply and then may invite you to audition. If selected, they'll work with you to prepare to tell your story, so maybe give it a shot! The Ohio EPA recently released a report about our local waterways that said that they're about as healthy as they were two years ago, although that's not necessarily a great thing. The report is required by the Clean Water Act to be released every two years, and in it they explained that in terms of local waterways, the stretch of the Great Miami from Tawawa Creek in Sidney to where Mad River joins it in Dayton is classified as “not impaired,” but that from Dayton to where it enters the Ohio River it is impaired by polychlorinated biphenyl, or PCB, a toxic industrial chemical that does not go away easily. The Mad River and Little Miami are also considered impaired by PCBs, although the Stillwater is not. In good news, one section of the Little Miami is being delisted because it meets a different set of cleanliness goals, so it's not all bad news at least completely. A local Dayton couple is suing rapper Travis Scott after they allege that his Astroworld musical festival last fall resulted in the death of their unborn child, as well as 10 people who also died. The couple, Shanazia Williamson and Jarawd Owens, filed suit against Scott, the festival organizers, and the security companies that were hired, and are seeking over $1 million in damages. They explain in their suit that Williamson was trampled and crushed during the event, which resulted in her unborn child's death. So far, over 700 other concert-goers have filed suit as well, and Rolling Stone reports that nearly 5,000 people suffered some type of injury. Scott denies responsibility and has performed this month for the first time since the tragedy, which also resulted in the death of a UD student, Franco Patino, of Illinois. His family is also filing suit against the rapper. There were protestors at the Ohio Statehouse on Saturday protesting against the likely adoption of abortion bans by the Ohio state legislature. Those protests were joined by others, including in Xenia and one here in Dayton at the Courthouse Square, where hundreds gathered to protest against abortion bans. In the wake of the leaked Supreme Court decision overturning Roe v. Wade, many states such as Ohio are considering banning abortion, and in Ohio the bills that seek to do just that are Senate Bill 123 and House Bill 598. Ohio's version of the abortion ban, if it passes, which seems likely, will outlaw abortion except in cases where the mother's life is in danger or to prevent irreversible bodily impairment of the pregnant person, but no exceptions in the case of rape or incest. Well it will be at least another year until marijuana is legalized in Ohio fully as state officials recently settled a case with the Coalition to Regulate Marijuana Like Alcohol, who had been pushing to have their signatures accepted on this year's ballot for voters to weigh in on. In exchange for delaying until 2023, the coalition will not have to re-collect signatures again for next year and the state will accept the over 140,000 signatures they've already collected. The Carillon Historical Park here in Dayton has some new exhibits you might want to check out now. There is now a new industrial block of buildings on the grounds where you can see an expanded print shop, a new demonstration foundry, a soap shop, and a landscaped plaza where Carillon will hold programs for children. The Gem City Letterpress Company was the first hands-on experience the museum offered to visitors back in 1988, but it's now expanded and will be joined by the new Rubicon Foundry and Air City Soap Company. Paper printing was a big business in Dayton years ago, and Dayton History's Vice President, Alex Heckman, explained to the Dayton Daily News that due to Dayton's location next to the river, there were a lot of of paper mills here in the 1930s, in fact 25 out of Ohio's 36 paper mills were in Dayton, and because it was easier to do the printing next to where the paper mills were, there were 77 paper printing companies at one point as well. If you're interested in getting involved you can volunteer at Carillon as well, simply call volunteer coordinator Kay Locher at 937-293-2841 ext. 102. For more information about the museum, visit daytonhistory.org. The Dayton Playhouse is bringing back its annual event, FutureFest, for the first time since the pandemic, the event where they produce six previously unproduced plays over the course of three days. FutureFest is a nationally-recognized all-volunteer event, and they received 378 play submissions this year. They have their six finalists who will be performing at the festival selected now, and at the festival those plays will be judged by professional adjudicators. One of the plays is particularly timely, and is called “Griswold,” which is about Estelle Griswold of the Supreme Court case Griswold v. Connecticut, which enabled unmarried couples the right to obtain birth control. You can learn more at wordpress.thedaytonplayhouse.com. Salem Avenue in Dayton is now undergoing what will likely be over a year-long reconstruction process on the strip between Riverview and North Avenues. A reconstruction is not a simple repaving and actually involves much more work, hence the length of the project. Traffic will be down to a single lane during the construction process, so city leaders urge people to find alternate routes. The rebuilding is overdue, however, as some sections of the underlying base pavement are reported by the city to be over 100 years old. Once reopened, the road will have five lines, with two on each side and a center lane in between, as well as a two-way 10-foot wide cycle track. This is just phase 2 of the entire project, and the final phase 4 is not expected to be done until the end of 2025. The Dayton Walk of Fame recently inducted some new members, including one of my favorite local bands, Guided by Voices. The walk began in 1996 and recognizes individuals with outstanding achievements in the arts, education, invention, community or military service, philanthropy, and more. The inductees this year as follows: Phyllis G. Bolds - a black woman who graduated from Dunbar High School in 1950 and went on to become internationally-known for her work in aircraft dynamics. Neal Gittleman - artistic director and conductor of the Dayton Philharmonic Orchestra for almost thirty years. Roger Glass - president and CEO of Marion's Piazza who is known for his philanthropy work, including helping to found Equitas Health. A.B. Graham - who was considered the founding father of 4-H youth programming. Sharon Rab - the founder and co-chair of the Dayton Literary Peace Prize. Guided by Voices - known as the “forefathers of lo-fi rock,” who are headed by frontman Bob Pollard. They're still active of course and just this past March released Crystal Nuns Cathedral. The inductees will be formally inducted and honored at a luncheon at Sinclair in October. Visit daytonregionwalkoffame.org for more information. Well if you're into BBQ then you're gonna want to hear this next story, but a Dayton woman, Erica Roby, recently competed in World Championship BBQ Cooking Contest in Memphis, Tennessee, where she took fourth place in a competition that the USA Today calls the “most prestigious BBQ contest.” She came in fourth place for ribs out of 104 teams. Roby also competed in the Food Network's season 2 of BBQ Brawl, which she won. If you want to try her BBQ, she plans on cooking for the Yellow Springs Juneteenth Celebration this year as well as having some local popups in August. You can find her on Instagram at @bluesmokeblaire. Also in related news, I will be having an interview with AJ Bauer coming up soon, and he's the owner of Smokin BBQ in the Oregon District, so if you're a fan of BBQ don't miss that one! Well apparently there's a thief in Dayton who is in possession of a key that can, quote, “unlock all Dayton-area mailboxes,” who has been stealing checks from people. So far the Montgomery County Sheriff's office has reported that at least 26 checks have been stolen from outdoor mailboxes since February. US Postal Service spokespeople say that there is an active investigation that is ongoing, and while they argue that mailing checks is still secure, the sheriff's office is telling people they should go inside the post office to mail checks for the time being. And finally in our news stories for this week, I actually just got back from a week of birding in northern Ohio, Illinois, and Iowa, which I mention because while I was gone apparently the bird flu popped up in Dayton. The Highly Pathogenic Avian Influenza virus has been found in birds locally, which can infect chickens, duck, geese, pheasants, quail, and guinea fowl, and there is no cure. It can infect humans, so City Manager Shelley Dickstein warned recently in a commission meeting for people not to handle dead birds, so stay safe out there if you come across one. And now for local events happening soon: Well today, Sideshow, one of the Dayton Yellow Cab's annual shows, is coming back this month today and tomorrow after taking several years off due to Covid-19. This year performers will include Far From Eden, Tino, Nautical Theme, Snake Oil Revival, and more. Ticket information is available at yellowcabtavern.com. If you're looking for something fun to do with friends tomorrow that has an opportunity to win prizes, then you're in luck, because there's a downtown Dayton scavenger hunt going on, which is being put on by the Downtown Dayton Partnership. The scavenger hunt takes place from 11:00am-5:00pm and starts in the Oregon District but will lead you all over downtown Dayton. Answers will be recorded on a clue sheet, although some hunt locations will require you to text photos of the things you find. The 1st place prize is $300 cash, so nothing to sneeze at. There is a $10 registration fee per team, although in return you receive $10 in Downtown Dollars, which you can use at any participating downtown business. All teams also get entered into a raffle prize drawing as well. There's no limit on the number of people per team. Visit downtowndayton.org to sign your team up and learn more. Well if you're in town on Sunday, May 22nd, which happens to be my birthday, then you can go to the Branch and Bone brewery's Brunch with Chef Dane event, which is happening from 12:00pm noon until they run out.

All right well that's about it for this episode, although before I go I recently saw another podcast doing this and thought it was a great idea, so if there's someone or some organization that you'd like me to interview, I'd like to hear from you. Please call me at 513-400-3538 and leave me a voice message explaining who you would like me to contact, why you want me to have them on the show, and one question you'd like me to ask them. I'm anxious to see where this leads, so I hope you'll call! Thanks so much for listening everyone, and stay funky, Dayton.
Today's Friday the 13th, 2022, and it's time for your weekly News Roundup episode, where I read the news so you don't have to. A lot happened last week and there's a lot coming up in terms of local events and things to do that you won't want to miss, including things going on tonight, so don't wait to listen! As always, you can find the show notes for this episode on my website at discoverdaytonpodcast.com. Organizations mentioned in this episode include: Ohio Statehouse Central State University Sinclair Community College City of Dayton Ghostlight Coffee 2nd Street Market Gulzar's Indian Cuisine AES Five Rivers Health Centers Dayton Peace Prize Dayton Council on World Affairs Hall Hunger Initiative Heart Mercantile Mission of Mary's CSA Dayton Women's Rights Alliance Top of the Market Liftoff Entertainment Humane Society of Greater Dayton Blind Bob's Shiloh Farmer's Market NCCJ Dayton Beer Company Liederkranz-Turner German Club Salar Wiley's Five Rivers MetroParks The Neon Yellow Cab Tavern TheatreLab Dayton PNC Arts Annex Show Transcript: Hello and welcome to the Discover Dayton podcast, the show that's all about the Gem City's past, present, and future. I'm Arch Grieve and I'm your host, and today's episode is the weekly news roundup for Friday the 13th of May 2022, so if you're superstitious be careful today. There's a lot that happened last week though, including an update to Ohio's redistricting process, good news for Dayton residents on their electric bills, and the opening of some new places to eat downtown, as well as lots of stuff to do this weekend and beyond, so stay tuned! And now for last week's news: Well, the news about the Ohio congressional district maps isn't great, as towards the end of last week the Republican-dominated Ohio Redistricting Commission voted down a set of maps drawn up by the consultants that they hired, and then immediately voted to approve a set of maps that the Ohio Supreme Court has already declared unconstitutional. Protestors in attendance yelled “shame,” at the commission members, but their cries were ineffective in causing any type of change amongst the members because the Republican members of the commission have no shame. Secretary of State Frank LaRose, who is a commission member, explained his rationale for supporting the third set of maps by claiming that it would be the easiest set of maps for local boards of elections to use. At the end of the meeting, Democratic Minority House Leader Allison Russo read out a “minority report,” which laid the blame for the redistricting process mess at the feet of her Republican counterparts. Also happening at the state level right now is discussion around a bill that would put an end to local municipalities' abilities to manage short-term rentals, such as Airbnbs. House Bill 563 is currently being debated at the Ohio Statehouse, with opponents of the bill saying that it would take away home rule from cities and curtail their ability to self-govern, so now is your time to contact your local representative or senator if you have an opinion about it. Central State University's Dayton Campus is getting a cash infusion from the U.S. Department of Commerce, which is awarding the HBCU $3.6 million in ARPA funds to quote, “tackle workplace shortages,” which have been made worse by the pandemic. Much of the money will go towards funding workshops that are geared towards educating students about advanced materials, advanced manufacturing, IT, and advanced data management. Central State is also putting in an additional nearly $90K towards its Workforce Training and Business Development Center, which will specialize in employment-related training. As a result of the expansion, Central State is expecting a 50% increase in enrollment this fall and expects to go from 2,000 students to 3,000 who are physically attending campus classes, and from 4,000 to 7,000 students attending online. Just for full transparency for this next story, I need to acknowledge that I am a Sinclair employee, but Sinclair has had some good news recently in that it graduated a record number of students at last week's graduation ceremony, with 8,919 students being awarded degrees or certificates, or a 14% increase over last year. Of those, a record number were also black men, 1,548 students to be exact, as well as a record number of minority students at just over 3,000. There's good news for Dayton residents recently from the city, which is that they recently announced that residents will be getting 100% renewable energy starting in June of this year which will be 30% cheaper than AES Ohio's standard service rate, which is the company that used to be DP&L. They also assured residents that Dayton will not be impacted by the recent rate hikes proposed by AES thanks to the new aggregation program. Savings are expected to average approximately $300 per Dayton customer over the 12-month period that the deal is in effect, for a total of $10 million combined for all residents in savings. If you wish to participate in the program, you don't have to do anything, but if you wish to opt-out then letters are being sent out soon. There's good news for Ghostlight Coffee fans, which is that you can now find them on weekends at the 2nd Street Market. They're opening a bagel bakery there called DOUGH. Ghostlight owner, Shane Anderson, told the Dayton Daily News that he always wanted to have a location in the market, but that there was already a coffee shop there. However, they learned recently that there was an opening for a sandwich shop, so they put forward the concept of a bagel soup and sandwich shop, and now they're in the soft opening phase of its existence. They plan to release more items moving forward, but you can also find them at their original location on Wayne Ave. or over next to Old Scratch on Patterson Blvd. They'll also soon be coming to the Dayton Arcade. In other news-related food, I'm sure many of you will be as excited as I am to learn that there's a new Indian restaurant in downtown Dayton now. The family-owned Gulzar's Indian Cuisine opened last Thursday at 217 N. Patterson, just across from the Dragon's stadium and next to Winans and Flyboys. Wife and husband Deepika and Jay Singh co-manage the restaurant together, and Jay's brother manages the family's other restaurant in Richmond, Indiana. The restaurant features authentic Indian cuisine, including my favorite, chicken tikka masala, but if you're looking for their most authentic dishes you can find those on the menu under Chef Specials. They also have a lunch buffet, which is $13.99. You can find their menu and learn more at gulzarsindiancuisine.com. I just had lunch there earlier this week and I definitely recommend it! There's a new Five Rivers Health Centers campus in the Edgemont neighborhood of Dayton after they held its grand opening Wednesday of this week. The campus location will provide a number of different health services, including dental care, women's health, sports medicine, eye care, and primary care. After being founded just over ten years ago, Five Rivers Health Centers now has 9 locations geared towards providing health services to low-income residents. The new facility is now accepting patients, and you can learn more at fiverivershealthcenters.org. Last week former Congressman and Ambassador, Tony Hall, received the Dayton Peace Prize, which is awarded jointly by the Dayton Council on World Affairs and the Dayton Peace Prize Selection Committee. Hall was a US Congressman from 1979 to 2002, after which he served as the US Ambassador to the United Nations Agencies for Food and Agriculture. He also started the Hall Hunger Initiative here in Dayton. Past recipients of the award include President Bill Clinton, Ambassador Richard Holbrooke, and Archbishop Desmond Tutu. Well if you're in the Oregon District looking for Heart Mercantile then you'll need to find them in their new location, which is on the other side of the street from their old one. They're now at 601 E. Fifth St. across from Trolley Stop in a space that's double the size of their old location. Also starting today, they are now open one hour later every day, with hours from 11:00am to 8:00pm now. Learn more at heartmercantile.com. If you're in the market for sustainable, locally-grown produce, then you might want to check out Mission of Mary's CSA, or community-supported agriculture. Their CSA program runs from this month until November of this year, with pickups every Wednesday from 2:00-6:00pm. You can sign up to get vegetables weekly from them on their website at missionofmary.org. And finally, before we get to the more fun events happening this weekend and beyond, there's also a Rally for Abortion Rights at Courthouse Square this Saturday, May 14th from 2:00-3:00pm. You can learn more about the event on the Dayton Women's Rights Alliance on Facebook or end40days on Instagram. All right, and now for things to do in Dayton: If you're looking for a drive-in movie experience but don't want to travel very far, you can go and see the Princess Bride tonight at Top of the Market Banquet Center, which is hosting a pop-up drive-in movie screening in conjunction with Liftoff Entertainment. The cost is $30-40 per vehicle and the lot opens at 7:30pm with the movie starting at 8:45pm.

There's a competition to see who has the most tabs, although to be honest I couldn't find what you'll win, but it all goes towards a good cause.

Ohio High School Athletic Association members are voting right now on a proposal that would allow high school athletes to benefit from their name, image, and likeness rights (NIL) in the same way that college athletes now can. What prompted that proposal, and how much of a difference will it make if it passes?Marcus Hartman of the Dayton Daily News has been following this story for weeks. He joins host Tom Orr to break it all down. - How much would most high school athletes benefit from NIL?- If Ohio's proposal passes, and other major football states like Texas, Georgia, and Florida continue to ban NIL for high school athletes, what kind of impact could that have?- How soon could this all happen?
Tyler is joined for a late night show by David Jablonski of the Dayton Daily News to discuss Dayton's quarterfinal wins and look ahead to the matchup with Richmond. Tyler closes out the episode with his hot take on the favorite amongst the last 4.
Hal McCoy is synonymous with the Cincinnati Reds. The Hall of Fame writer for the Dayton Daily News has been covering baseball's oldest professional franchise since 1973. Hal tells about the egos, talent, and inner workings of the Big Red Machine. Learn why the great Sparky Anderson was fired, and how Vern Rapp learned his same fate. Hear about Pete Rose's return to Cincinnati and his ultimate downfall. Hal explains why Joe Morgan quit talking to him, why Eric Davis was his all-time favorite player, and why Lou Piniella once forgot to fill out a lineup card. And Hal explains how a pep talk from Aaron Boone kept him writing after he lost nearly all his eyesight. You'll feel like one of baseball's great writers is taking you out to the old ballgame. McCoy was honored by the National Baseball Hall of Fame in 2002 as winner of the J.G. Taylor Spink Award, which is awarded annually “for meritorious contributions to baseball writing.” He has covered more than 7,000 Major League Baseball games and chronicled the day-to-day news of three World Series championship teams (1975, '76 and '90) and nine Division winners. Hal has been chair of the Cincinnati chapter of the Baseball Writers Association of America 22 times, and he served as the BBWAA national president in 1997. He has won 52 Ohio and national writing awards and was the first non-Cincinnati newspaper writer to be elected to the Cincinnati journalists Hall of Fame. Hal is a member of the National Sportswriters and Sportscasters Hall of Fame, as well as the Irish-American Baseball Hall of Fame. Dayton honored him with a stone on the city's Walk of Fame, and the press box at Dayton's Howell Field is named after him. Hal officially retired after the 2009 season after making nearly ever road trip with the Reds for nearly four decades, but he has never stopped writing about the team. He still covers Cincinnati's home games from the ballpark for “The Real McCoy” blog on the Dayton Daily News website and for HalMcCoy.com. His “Ask Hal” columns appear in the paper's Sunday print edition. Hal writes about the Reds' games from the road off television – and weighs in on other sports topics – for his “Observations from the Man Cave” column on his own website. Hal also covers University of Dayton basketball and football for PressProsMagazine.com. McCoy's career began at the Dayton Journal Herald in 1964, two years after the Akron native graduated with honors from Kent State University's School of Journalism. Hal played college baseball (first base) on a partial scholarship and was a teammate of Gene Michael, a future player and general manager for the New York Yankees. In 1966, Hal took a job at the Detroit Free Press to cover Michigan and Michigan State football, but he returned to Dayton in '67 to work for the Daily News. His original beats were Dayton Flyers basketball and auto racing. He also covered the Cleveland Browns, the defunct NBA Cincinnati Royals, golf, the University of Miami (Ohio) and high schools. By the late 1960s, he was the paper's backup Reds' writer. In 1973, his editor asked him to choose a fulltime beat: Reds or Bengals. He picked baseball and has never left the game. Hal lives in Englewood, Ohio, with his wife, Nadine.
