Lawmakers from the Minnesota House and Senate are scheduled to meet Wednesday afternoon to resolve differences in another pair of big spending bills. Both measures increase funding for transportation across the state, but the chambers disagree on how much money to raise through a metro sales tax increase. Both bills would also create a new program to address safety concerns on buses and rail lines in the metro and allocate funding for a passenger train between Duluth and the Twin Cities. Sam Rockwell, Executive Director of the transportation advocacy group Move Minnesota, joined MPR News host Cathy Wurzer to talk about the proposed investments in transit systems, bike lanes, safety, and more.

Welcome to Episode 380 of The Outdoor Biz Podcast and my conversation with Joe Peters, Marketing Director, Strategic Advisor, and Creative Ideator with Vasque Footwear. Vasque is asking people log outside. And if you're not careful they just might take your phone and make that a formal request! Brought to you by The Big Gear Show! Facebook Twitter Instagram The Outdoor Biz Podcast Love the show? Subscribe, rate, review, and share! Sign up for my Newsletter HERE. I'd love to hear your feedback about the show! You can contact me here: email: rick@theoutdoorbizpodcast.com or leave me a message on Speakpipe! Presented to by: Show Notes How did you get connected to Vasque? It was 11 years ago. I've been with Vasque in one way, shape, or form for 11 years now. Vasque is the outdoor brand within the Red Wing Shoe Company. So Red Wing Boots has been around for more than 115 years. I was looking for boots online. I was on jcrew.com shopping for Boots. For Red Wing Heritage Boots. Then for whatever reason, I moved to click on the careers tab and found a job in of all things demand planning. I threw my name into the hat for that and that started my career at Red Wing Shoe Company. How did you get into the Outdoor Industry? I would say the outdoor industry kind of found me more than I was out to find a job in the outdoor industry. I didn't know it existed before I found Red Wing and by proxy Vasque. Now you're, after all these experiences, you are the marketing director for Vasque, right? So what's a day in the life for Joe as the marketing director? For the Vasque brand specifically? That's a great question. I mean, it depends upon the day, right? That's one of the beauties of this job. It's one of the things that I just love about it is, no day is the same. There are elements of my days that are planned and elements that are very much unplanned. I typically on a general day try to carve out 45 minutes to not be on a Zoom call, or not be in a meeting and you know, journal and think and assess. But I have to be very deliberate with that because if I didn't, I would be in meetings from eight to five every single. The beauty of my role is I need to keep an eye outside of the walls of Vasque. Looking at culture, looking at the outdoor industry as a whole. Looking at everything within the cultural zeitgeist to ensure that this brand is staying relevant. How much travel is there, is there a lot of travel other than trade shows? I would say. Yeah, there was a lot, a lot of travel before the pandemic. There was a point where, I've got two kids who are now six and a half, and five Once I landed in Tokyo and my wife sent me a video of my little kids. They were probably, three and four at the time, swinging on the swing set in the backyard. And there was an airplane that flew up over the house and both of them pointed at the airplane and they said, daddy. Yea, so there was a point where I was traveling a lot. You recently posted something about changes at Vasque. Can you share anything about that with us yet? Yeah, we're finally beyond the lockdown. So it's a new brand platform for Vasque. We know through our research that the number one reason people go outdoors is to find a sense of escape from the stressors of our daily life lives. And we did this research both pre-pandemic, during the pandemic, and post-pandemic. We found that the average American at the height of the pandemic was spending 12 hours a day staring at a screen. Let that sink in for a minute. 12 hours a day. And while that number has thankfully come down as the world is started to open back up, the average American now as of 2023, late 2022, still spent seven hours looking at screens per day. With that research, we identified the simple fact that it's possible that screens play a major role in deterring people from going outside. So the new log outside platform is really out to mindfully change that, and really gently pull people off of their screens if only for 30 minutes a day So how's it work? It's kind of a multifaceted approach. We flipped all of our channels with a new aesthetic. We're not telling people to throw their phones away or anything like that. These things have unlocked opportunities we didn't know possible. Right? We're basically trying to illustrate the fact that there are real tangible things just outside the screen. And we've kind of really flipped most of our channels to be more of a gentle invitation slash reminder that life exists outside this thing. How were you introduced to the outside lifestyle? Oh man, I grew up on a small acreage outside of a small town in rural Minnesota. Some of my first memories, I was probably five or six years old, and I was just out. We had some acres and I would just go out in the morning on a Saturday with a backpack and spend the day out there exploring. How'd you get into cycling? I got into cycling, during college up in Duluth. We utilized cycling as a recovery mechanism. I was a baseball pitcher. And that's what we would do on our days off. We would cycle or we would run, et cetera. So I got into cycling a little bit. Then after college,  did a bike ride across the state of Iowa called the Rag Brai. What other outdoor activities do you do? We camp in the backyard quite a bit. We're lucky enough to live right above the Mississippi River in St. Paul. And we have a waterfall across the street from our house that runs into the Mississippi River. It's called Shadow Falls. And you know, I look at my childhood experience of having such easy access. to being outside in a very safe way. I grew up out in the country. My children are growing up in the middle of twin cities. But we're so blessed to have a ton of green space around our house. So I spun up this little Shadow Falls Explorers Club. There are three, well, there are four members counting my wife, so my two children, myself, and my wife. And, we try to get out and become as familiar as possible with our surroundings so they're comfortable. we got all the gear we need. So I do a lot of hiking with my kids. I was a swimmer growing up as well, so I do a fair amount of swimming in the summer and a lot of cycling. What is, what are your suggestions and advice for folks that want to get into the Outdoor Biz? I think just being interested in the business side of it, I guess, right? There's no shortage of people that are interested in the outdoors. Having the opportunity to work in an industry that empowers so many people to live healthy lives is super attractive. It's a great, great place to work. I think, really subscribing to the OIA. So much great research is made available, in bits and pieces from the OIA. What's your favorite piece of outdoor gear under a hundred dollars? Oh gosh. We're gonna put the air quotes on gear and I'm gonna do a PSA. My favorite piece of outdoor gear that's most critical to my longevity and my success is an eight-ounce bottle of sunscreen. Gotta protect yourself from the sun tangentially to that I suppose is one of those big, you know, uh, bucket hats from Outdoor Research that protect your face and your neck from the UV rays that can really get people into some trouble. What are a couple of your favorite books? You know, my reading list as of late is, um, really not that interesting. Reports, Spreadsheets, I'm reading the Harvard Business Review collection on Strategy, Managing People, Leadership, Change Management, those are good books, et cetera. I would say that kind of the first book that I read that really opened my eyes to like the sense of adventure was probably something that's been brought up hundreds of times, but it's a book called Into Thin Air by John Krakauer. Bill Bryson, all of his hits are amazing. So those are some of the few. I'm reading a book right now by the manager of the Grateful Dead. It's fascinating. About the early days, kind of the trajectory of what I'm gonna go on the record and say to be the best band in the world. Is there anything else you'd like to say to or ask of our listeners? Oh man, thank you, for listening. Thank you for making it all the way here. I appreciate the time. I would say a plug for Vasque. If you know about us through the years, check us out again. We're definitely evolving the way we're operating. Our products are evolving the way you go outside. And this new brand platform is really, We hope is impactful to the betterment of people's lives. And I say that so genuinely. It's something that we're really proud of, we're really passionate about. The last thing would be if you're outside, good on ya. And if you're not, try to find 30 minutes today and get out there. Follow up with Joe @hellojoepeters on Instagram Facebook, Twitter, Linkedin. I'm on all the channels.

College freshman Justin Gaines had returned to his parent's home in Duluth, Georgia, for the weekend. The smart and outgoing 18-year-old student did not have any classes on Fridays, so he used the weekends to catch up with his parents, do a little work at their family roofing company and party with friends. And on Thursday, November 1st, 2007, he set out for Wild Bill's Nightclub with a friend and his girlfriend to do just that.But what started out as an innocent night of drinking, dancing and fun, soon turned into a hassle for Justin, who could not find a ride home. Surveillance cameras caught him outside the bar in the early morning hours, on his cell, desperately trying to secure a lift. Around 2:30 am, he told a parking lot attendant that he had found a ride, and was then seen getting into a black sedan with a woman with blond hair and a black dress. Who the mystery woman was and where they were going was anybody's guess. Justin Gaines was never seen or heard from again.Show Notes: https://player.fm/series/true-crime-bullsh/the-namus-44-justin-gaineshttps://podcasts.apple.com/bh/podcast/justin-glen-gaines-look-whos-talking/id1151955197?i=1000566846346

Gwinnett County police are investigating a shooting that occurred in unincorporated Stone Mountain, leaving one man dead and another injured. The injured man entered Grady Hospital in Atlanta with a non-life-threatening gunshot wound and claimed to have been involved in a shooting at a home on Mountain Drive. Police responded to the home and found a dead man inside. Detectives are currently investigating the incident and trying to locate any witnesses who may have seen or heard the shooting. The motive and identity of the deceased male are currently unknown. Gwinnett County police are looking for suspects who are accused of trying to steal a catalytic converter from a car in a neighborhood near Duluth last month. Master Police Officer Hideshi Valle said a surveillance camera at the Walmart on Jimmy Carter Boulevard recorded two men purchasing tools on March 2. Two people matching the description of the men at Walmart were then seen with at least two other suspects a few hours later, shortly after midnight, trying to steal a catalytic converter from a 2014 BMW 435i on Saint Andrews Drive. The BMW's owner heard loud drilling noises outside his window and saw three people with tools around his vehicle, according to the police report. A white sedan that was running was next to the BMW as well.The owner grabbed his handgun and fired at least 10 through a window at the suspects. The vehicle began to pull away from the house and two of the suspects who had allegedly been trying to steal the catalytic converter ran after it and got inside it. The third suspect ran toward another house in the neighborhood. The suspects recorded buying tools at Walmart are described as Black men in their early 20s. One of them has a tattoo of a partial clock on the top of his left hand, and was wearing a black hoodie, shorts, socks and sliders on the day the theft occurred. The other suspect has tattoos on his right hand, and was wearing a blue zip-up hoodie, green sweatpants, gray socks and green Nike slides. Gwinnett County police are looking for a man who stole a leaf blower from a Home Depot in the Hamilton Mill area last week. Master Police Officer Hideshi Valle said the man is accused of walking in to the store, which is located at 2120 Hamilton Creek Parkway, on April 20 and put a RYOBI 18V HP Brushless Blower in a shopping cart and then leaving the store with the device without paying for it. Police said the leaf blower is worth $159. A police report states the man allegedly put the leaf blower in a dark blue passenger car before driving away in the vehicle. The report lists the vehicle as possibly being a Nissan, but the model was unknown. The suspect is described as an older White man with a colored tattoo on his left forearm, and who was wearing dark pants, a blue shirt that had the word "DIAMOND" printed on the front, and a brown or camouflage baseball cap at the time of the theft. Officials at the Gwinnett Medical Examiner's Office and private DNA testing laboratory, Othram Inc., are hoping genealogical testing will help them find answers regarding two sets of children's bones that were found in Gwinnett around 25 years ago. The bones were found in boxes at the intersection of Buford Highway and Weaver Way in February 1998. There is no complete set of bones for either child, one of whom is believed to have been an infant and the other is believed to be a teenager. The bones were exhumed legally, according to the letter found with the bones, from somewhere in south Georgia, but where is unknown. Speculation is that the bones were meant to end up somewhere else but fell from a vehicle when driving through Gwinnett. Officials also believe that the children died somewhere between 1900 and 1940 because the bones were found with burial tools from that era. Othram is purpose built to identify either victims or perpetrators in cases with no other leads. Currently Othram is trying to raise money to cover the cost of the testing. Buford racked up a season-high 15 hits Monday for a 10-1 victory over Peachtree Ridge in decisive Game 3 of their first-round series in the Class AAAAAAA state baseball playoffs. Ethan Murray, Brandon Taliaferro, Madden Young and Ayden Lockett led the Wolves' hitters. Murray's home run was his sixth of the season. The output was more than enough for winning pitcher Nate Taylor, who struck out eight and walked one over 6 2/3 innings in a three-hitter. The Wolves advance to host Walton in the second round on April 28 and 29. Wesleyan rallied for an 8-7 victory in walkoff fashion in Game 1, then got a dominant pitching performance from Dominick Scalese in the nightcap for a 3-0 win and a sweep of Hebron Christian in the first round of the Class AAA state baseball playoffs Monday. Scalese struck out 11 in a complete-game, two-hitter in Game 2 to finish off the sweep. Schley Gordy and Forrest Lietz had two hits each in the opener as the Wolves advanced to a second-round matchup at Ringgold on April 29 and May 1.

Carrie Rodman is one of our 2023 Grambassadors and joins the podcast to talk about positive self-talk and how to properly train your mind along with your body ahead of race weekend.

A week after visiting Finland, we're staying in the Nordic countries - kind of.  Emily Vikre's family comes from Norway. There were always aquavit and hearty meals to be had. But when it came time to do something with that heritage - something that had nothing to do with her PhD in food policy and behavioral theory - she came home to Duluth to found Vikre Distillery.  Yes, they're making whiskey, but this episode is whiskey-lite. Instead, I wanted to take the time to delve into the Scandinavian origins of aquavit, the caraway style favored in Denmark with which I've fallen in love, and how Vikre fits in the rising wave of Nordic cuisine.  Emily, of course, has thought about all of this already. I love doing research for these episodes so I'm as prepared as possible - Emily came just as prepared as I did, armed with generations of knowledge, a 17-course feast in her rearview, and a true understanding of where Vikre is, where she wants it to be, and what its identity is. This may be a shorter episode than usual, but believe me I felt as elatedly exhausted as I do after a two-hour one. That's the sign of a great guest.  I can't wait to have her back on. Thanks Emily! _________________ Before we jump into the interview just a few quick notes: If you haven't joined the Patreon community yet, please consider doing so! Only 5 Spots Remain in the Barrel Club.

Celebrating the love of low ABV beersLast year's Little Beer Fest provided unusually cold temps in Duluth, GA with a bit of "wintery mix," aka rain, snow, and sleet.  Fortunately we didn't see a repeat and this year's event provided plenty of sunshine and temps in the 70s.  Perfect weather for enjoying some low ABV beers.  Huge shoutout to Todd DiMatteo and Good Word Brewing for hosting a great festival. Matty Hargrove - Blackberry Farm BreweryAs we sipped our way through the festival we talked with Matty Hargrove from Blackberry Farm Brewery.  He brought us Bloody Marys so w were off to a good start.  Matty talked about the farm and the brewery and doing things (brewing, food, service) with intention.  We reminisce about the Nuit Belge festival and how much we enjoy their Classic Saison.John Holl - All About Beer & Steal This BeerFresh off his Lager Panel at Little Beer Fest beer journalist John Holl joined us to chat.  When asked if we were in a lager moment John pauses to remind us that lagers have been king in America for many years, and craft lager is catching up.  We also discuss the rise of hazy IPAs and how it coincides with the popularity of Instagram and other photo and video sites where image is more important than quality.  On the quality note, many craft brewers are focusing on classic European and German lagers where nuance is more important than all that juice.You can hear more from John, and Augie Carton, on the Steal This Beer podcast.Lisa Allen - Heater AllenHeater Allen was an early entry into craft lager with their brewery coming up on 15 years.  Their taproom is currently undergoing renovations and will soon feature beers from a fun side project, Gold Dot Beer - a joint venture with Wayfinder Beer's Kevin Davey, the creator of the Cold IPA.  Gold Dot will bring IPAs and English styles to the taproom.  Lisa also shares the unique aspects of brewing beer in Wine Country as we ask about wine barrels and grape must in beers.Augie Carton - Carton Brewing & Steal This BeerChatting with Augie Carton was a great way to wrap up the show.  He now holds the record for the most swear words in a segment.  We should get him a trophy.  Augie shares how much he enjoyed hThanks for listening to Beer Guys Radio!

It's a love of lagers episode from four brewers that have fully embraced the traditions to the style and are working to have modern conversations in the space. You'll hear from Bierstadt Lagerhaus, Bagby Beer, Heater Allen, and Cohesion Brewing.It was a beautiful weather day in Duluth, Georgia last weekend as Good Word Brewing put on its third Little Beer Festival. Todd DiMatteo, who you've heard on this show, hosted a celebration of low ABV lagers and ales from top-notch brewers from around the country.  The brewery has already set the date for Little Beer IV: Saturday April 13, 2024. It's a perfect setting and a charming town just outside of Atlanta and if you're serious about great beer and the people who make it, be sure to be there next year.  It's not just beer drinking at this fest but also some education.
