In July 2008, 40-year-old teacher and mother Genai Coleman was shot and killed while waiting in her car outside a mall in Duluth, Georgia. What began as a tragic carjacking soon turned into one of the strangest investigations police had ever seen — when DNA from the crime scene pointed to not one suspect, but two.

From shrinking newsrooms to less news coverage, local journalism faces many challenges.Since 2005, more than 3,200 print newspapers have vanished, according to Northwestern University's 2024 report on the state of local news.But one thing that still makes local journalism powerful is when reporters live in the places they cover. MPR News guest host Catharine Richert talks with reporters who do just that. They'll talk about what it means to report on their own communities and why that connection matters. Guests: Tadeo Ruiz Sandoval is an MPR News reporter based in the Fargo-Moorhead area. He covers the region with a focus on agriculture. Tadeo started his journalism career as an intern at KMUW, the NPR Station in Wichita, Kan. In 2024, he interned at The Wall Street Journal where he produced and hosted a miniseries on Gen Z's debt. Molly Castle Work is an MPR News reporter based in Rochester. She covers health care in southeast Minnesota. Prior to joining MPR News, Molly worked as an investigative reporter at the Rochester Post Bulletin and later as a correspondent for KFF Health News in California. Dan Kraker is an MPR News correspondent based in Duluth where he covers the people, economy and environment of northeast Minnesota. Before joining MPR News, Dan worked at KNAU Arizona Public Radio for 11 years. He covered northern Arizona's Native nations and then served as news director. He also contributes regularly to National Public Radio programs and Marketplace.

The Quiraing is not a gentle place. Stone spires jut skyward, cliffs crumble toward the sea, and paths twist like they're still being carved by giants. It's a landscape that doesn't promise safety—it dares you to take another step. On Skye, they say even dragons once hid in these folds, rising to defend the island from invaders. And standing here, staring into that mist and stone, you can feel it: adventure isn't slaying dragons. It's choosing to face the one within. Music from Kinnfolk, Ed Miller, and Marc Gunn. This is Quest & Chorus #308 0:39 -  - Kinnfolk “Highland Laddie” from Star Above The Mountain 4:21 - WELCOME TO QUEST & CHORUS Where every hill might hide a dragon, and every fear might be your map. We stand on the edge… of a cliff, of a journey, of ourselves. The Quiraing, on the Isle of Skye, is a land caught between movement and stillness… earth sliding slowly toward the sea. And standing here, staring out over stone teeth and mist-choked valleys, you might ask: Should I go forward? Or turn back? I'm your bard, Marc Gunn, also host of the Irish & Celtic Music Podcast, and typically host of this show as Folk Songs & Stories, but today, we call it Quest & Chorus.

Stories: 6 mile hike Dressing like a hobbit Playing music with Kelly and Mitch in the Dancing Pony. Providing the atmosphere for Middle-Earth Sunrise over The Shire Singing beneath the stars. Ed Miller has a gift for turning lived experience into song. In “The Wide Rio Grande,” he tells the story of a young Scottish singer facing the sting of rejection at the U.S. border — and how that moment bound him to countless others who've risked everything to cross into a new life. It's a song about displacement and determination, about rules that separate and courage that refuses to be denied. From Houston to Laredo, from Scotland to Mexico, it is both personal and universal — a reminder that behind every border there are human hearts, still daring to cross. 11:19 - Ed Miller “The Wide Rio Grand” from Many's The Fine Tale The Wide Rio Grande Lyrics and music by Brian McNeill Fifteen years gone, the airport in Houston A young Scottish singer stands waiting in line He's been too long apart from the home of his heart It's a young Texas sweetheart so fair and so fine But the man at the desk with his uniform shoulders Gives uniform reasons and a uniform smile Takes more than a song son. The paperwork's wrong son Fly back where you came from just 5000 miles Come all you brave lads who follow my story I'll stand at the border and give you my hand Here's honor and luck, good health, and glory To those who would try for the wide Rio Grande London to Mexico, ready to try again Walk through a border that thousands have crossed Join the bold dispossessed of the South and the West For a white boy from Scotland, no irony lost But he knows as he reaches the light in Laredo With the guards looking on and the sun beating down That the hard law and order, the rules on the border Has made him at one with the men who have drowned Come all you brave lads who follow my story I'll stand at the border and give you my hand Here's honor and luck, good health, and glory To those who would try for the wide Rio Grande So the next time you walk the wrong side of the border Remember this song as you think on your lot For every man, Jack, who can take the road back Should think on the fortune of those who cannot For Wetback's a name that they whisper in corners But there's one man hear who will wear it with pride For a fence or a wall means nothing at all For a heart full of courage will ne'er be denied Come all you brave lads who follow my story I'll stand at the border and give you my hand Here's honor and luck, good health, and glory To those who would try for the wide Rio Grande Compadres and amigos who follow my story I'll stand at the border and give you my hand Here's honor and luck, good health, and glory To those who would try for the wide Rio Grande 15:50 - UPCOMING SHOWS OCT 11: The Lost Druid Brewery, Avondale Estates, GA OCT 17-19: MultiVerse, Peachtree City, GA NOV 1: Georgia Renaissance Festival Fall Festival, Fairburn, GA NOV 8: IrishFest Atlanta, Roswell, GA with Inara NOV 14-16: CONjuration, Duluth, GA NOV 22: Georgia Renaissance Festival Fall Festival, Fairburn, GA DEC 6: Georgia Renaissance Festival Fall Festival, Fairburn, GA DEC 7: Nerdy Wonderland at The Lost Druid, Avondale Estates, GA @ 12 - 5 PM.

Sign to the Celtic Invasion Vacations mailing list at CelticInvasion.com. Let's begin the… QUEST & CHORUS of QUIRAING, SCOTLAND The Quiraing lies on the northern Trotternish Ridge of Skye. It's part of the largest landslip in Britain — a massive collapse of rock that stretches nearly the length of the peninsula. What makes the Quiraing remarkable is that it's still moving. Every year, the road below must be repaired, because cracks open and the land shifts. The cliffs and pinnacles here are not frozen in time; they are alive, in motion, reshaping themselves even now. Within this landscape are some striking features: The Needle, a tall jagged spike of rock; The Prison, a crag shaped like a fortress; and The Table, a grassy plateau hidden away within the folds of the cliffs. These names reflect how the landscape feels — not just natural, but storied. The word Quiraing comes from Old Norse — Kví Rand — which means “round fold.” It's thought to describe the way the land curves inward, almost like a natural pen or hollow. Local lore says the hollows were once used to hide cattle, especially during Viking raids. The geography itself became a shield, a place of protection. There are stories of dragons living in the Quiraing. However, the dragon stories don't come from ancient Gaelic tradition. They appear more in modern folklore retellings and travel writing — stories told to capture the atmosphere of the landscape. It's easy to see why. The Prison, a huge crag that looks like a fortress, seems like the perfect lair. The Needle rises like a spear ready to strike. The Table, hidden within the fold of the cliffs, feels like a secret clearing where wings could unfurl. One version says the dragons hid in the folds of the Quiraing, guarding the people of Skye from Viking invaders. When longships came over the horizon, the dragons rose from the cliffs themselves — wings beating like thunder, breath as fierce as the Atlantic spray. The Vikings fled, and the people survived. It's not a tale you'll find in the oldest manuscripts.  In a place where the land still moves, where cliffs shift and stones crash down, dragons feel less like fantasy and more like a natural explanation for the Quiraing's wild power. So when you set foot there today, you're not just walking among rocks and landslides. You're stepping into a landscape that invites adventure — where the air feels charged, as if dragons might still be hiding just behind the next ridge, waiting for the moment to rise again. In Middle-earth, places like this are where heroes are tested. This is where Frodo keeps walking. Where Aragorn faces the dead. Where you ask: Am I brave enough to keep going? Talk prompts: Fear is not the enemy—stagnation is. Talk about how fear can be a compass, not a wall. The illusion of safety: The “door” we hide behind may protect us—but it can also trap us. Personal story: Have you ever reached a moment of internal Quiraing? When you had to keep going even if you were shaking? D&D parallel: Every great campaign starts with a hesitant first step. Players choose to walk into darkness. The song's core idea: Adventure is not slaying dragons. It's choosing to face the dragon within. This song came from that moment— That catch in the chest before you say ‘yes.' That step forward that feels like a leap. It's about choosing the road that scares you… Because it also might save you. This is Come Adventure With Me. 29:24 - Marc Gunn “Come Adventure With Me” from Come Adventure With Me Your next clue is locked in the lyrics. What turns you to stone? Listen again. Write it down. Because sometimes, it hardens into walls. And sometimes… you have to break them. Thanks for walking the edge with me today. The Quiraing doesn't give answers.  But it gives perspective. Next time, we dive into a different kind of exile, on Skellig Michael, where legends go to disappear beneath the waves. Until then, wherever you are… Come adventure with me. 33:52 - CREDITS Thanks for listening to Quest & Chorus. This episode was edited by Mitchell Petersen.

Break 1: Kia MOG STORY 1: Fox Theatre continues Coca-Cola Film Series with screening of 'The Phantom of the Opera' The Fox Theatre is bringing a little magic—and a lot of nostalgia—to its Coca-Cola Film Series with a special screening of the 1925 silent classic The Phantom of the Opera on Oct. 29. Here’s the twist: the film will be accompanied live by organist Ken Double on the Mighty Mo, the Fox’s legendary 1929 Möller pipe organ. If you’ve never heard it, you’re in for a treat—it’s massive, intricate, and honestly, a masterpiece in itself. But that’s not all.

STORY 3: Gwinnett honors Jimmy Carter's life on his 101st birthday Even though former President Jimmy Carter wasn’t there in person last Wednesday, Tiffany Parks felt his presence everywhere. As volunteers hammered and sawed away at what will soon be her new home in Lilburn, she couldn’t help but think of the man who championed Habitat for Humanity for decades. “This is special—for him, his family, his legacy,” Parks said. Wednesday would’ve been Carter’s 101st birthday, and Gwinnett County honored him in every way imaginable: a Habitat build, a mural at Best Friend Park, blue lights on Jimmy Carter Boulevard, and heartfelt tributes. “He showed the world that everyone deserves a home,” said Habitat’s Eric Miller.

STORY 5: EXPLORING GWINNETT'S HISTORY: Your Parcel ID and the 1820 Land Lottery Ever wonder where your property’s parcel ID comes from? Turns out, it’s not random—it’s rooted in history, all the way back to Georgia’s 1820 Land Lottery. Back then, the state divided up land taken from Native Americans through treaties and forced removal, creating opportunities for white settlers to claim plots. Gwinnett County, established in 1818, was part of this process. Surveyors carved the county into districts and 250-acre lots. The first digit of your parcel ID? That’s your lottery district. The next three? Your original land lot. The last three? Your slice of that lot today. Curious who won your land? Visit the Gwinnett Historical Society in Lawrenceville! We’ll be right back.

Some come to honor loved ones, others to dream, and some just to soak in the beauty. A portion of proceeds supports the Georgia Mountain Food Bank. Want to stay the night? Lanier Islands is offering a special package with tickets and accommodations. Details at lanierislands.com.

In this episode of the Mushing Podcast, Robert Forto sits down with Tone Coughlin of Endurance Kennels in Duluth, Minnesota, to pull back the curtain on the realities of sled dog culture. They discuss the differences between sprint racing Alaskan Huskies and the stereotypical “Disney dogs,” how selective breeding has shaped performance, and why public education is crucial for the sport's future. Tony shares insights from growing his kennel, building a massive TikTok following, and balancing tradition with modern challenges, such as climate change and social media trolls.Whether you're a seasoned musher or new to the sport, this conversation offers a raw, authentic look at what it takes to raise, train, and advocate for sled dogs today.The Mushing podcast is made possible by Mushing+ subscribers.

Send us a textA former Duluth public school employee is blowing the whistle on a lesson that he says forced him from the school district. Adam Becker was hired by Duluth Public Schools to become a District Wide Paraprofessional Job Coach in 2024.He worked for a couple of months—but "gender mapping" put a stop to his teaching career."This is my first year teaching at a public school. I'm in Duluth, Minnesota, and I'm just like jaw dropped. And I hear this person say, you can start teaching this to your students as early as kindergarten. That's when I checked out.  That was the moment when I thought, my kids will never come here," Becker explained.Support the show

NOTICE: This weekly show is now part of the "Happy Hour with John Gaskins" daily podcast, which you can find at SiouxFallsLive.com, MidwestSportsPlus.com, and most podcast platforms like the one you find here! So, if you enjoy the topics Matt & John cover, you'll get those topics, plus relevant local guests, every Monday through Thursday on Happy Hour... so we highly recommend you check that out! You get hired to get fired. That has become the new old adage in modern day, big business college and pro sports for coaches and managers. After seven seasons, three playoff appearances, and the first playoff series win in over 20 years, Twins manager Rocco Baldelli became the latest casualty of this concept. Was it warranted? Is he the "fall guy?"Is it best the Twins move on even if Rocco is quite clearly not the primary reason for the sad state of affairs at Target Field? Beyond asinine ownership, what else besides Baldelli can we blame for the sinking ship the Twins became the last couple years?Speaking of sinking ships, has a bruised and battered Minnesota Vikings offensive line given enough reason to already believe this could be a lost season, or can a quarterback — either J.J. McCarty or Carson Wentz — and an all-of-a-sudden leaky defense keep NFC North title and even Super Bowl hopes afloat? In a monster week of football for the city of Sioux Falls and South Dakota's two Div. I teams, Happy Hour host John Gaskins and Sioux Falls Live sports editor Matt Zimmer lead off with these pressing Minnesota matters.Then, it is time to pick apart the South Dakota Coyotes' latest ugly loss in a revealing "measuring stick game" at No. 1 North Dakota State. Just like Monday's episode with Kurtiss Riggs, John and Matt try best to answer this question now that the 2025 season is about one-third in the books:With both the Jackrabbits and Coyotes losing head coaches, assistants & a bunch of their best players from top 5 teams in 2024, how and why have the Jacks remained national championship contenders (so it appears) while the Yotes have fallen off the radar (and out of the Top 25 rankings)?Meanwhile, Augustana will take its No. 8 ranking and 5-0 record across Sioux Falls to Bob Young Field on Saturday against now-unranked University of Sioux Falls (3-2) in the Key to the City Game. While the Vikings have the better record and momentum — the Cougars have lost back-to-back games in convincing fashion to Top 15-rated Duluth and Mankato — why does Zim feel the Coo have the advantage, and not just because USF has home field advantage?Finally, a preview of the most-anticipated game in South Dakota 11AAA high school football so far — No. 1 Lincoln at No. 2 Brandon Valley on Friday, a game you'll be able to watch on the Midwest Sports Plus app or at MidwestSportsPlus.com, where you can also download the app and start your 30-day free trial.

Recently I had to learn APA citation. Oof. It was a heavy lift, after a few decades with MLA. It gave me a refreshed sense of how overwhelming students likely find MLA. I found myself thinking, why can't I just link my sources in parentheses? Why can't I just reference the authors who informed my thinking inside my sentences? Why on earth does it matter if I use a comma or a semicolon, put the page first or put the page second? Why does APA even exist? Yeah, all the things our students probably think when we roll out our 26 page MLA redux, which doesn't even cover it all. And that's only the beginning of student frustration when it comes time for a research paper. Now, I struggle a little bit in recommending these alternatives to the research paper today, partly because my husband regularly references the research paper he wrote in high school as a landmark in his academic life. He loved it. He was so proud of his work. It set him on a path that eventually led all the way to a PHD program at UPenn. The other night, though, when we were debating the relative merits of 5 paragraph essays and research papers, he did mention that the rest of the class did not exactly excel on that research paper assignment, if the comments his teacher made as she passed back the papers were any sign. John Warner, in his book, Why They Can't Write, posits a possible reason for that lack of excelling. “The writing-related tasks we frequently visit upon students would prove difficult for even highly experienced writers. Writing on subjects with which we're newly familiar, in forms that are foreign, and addressed to audiences that are either undefined or unknown (other than 'for the teacher') bears little resemblance to the way we write for the world” (27). In other words, we often ask students to try and make themselves an expert on something they're not that interested in for a research paper, use a citation format that is next thing to a foreign language for them, tie themselves in knots trying to figure out how to convey what they've learned in an orderly way that generally leaves little room for their own voice or opinions, and do it all just to show their teacher, for a grade. Of course, that is how it has seemingly always been done. And after all, we survived. I remember learning MLA format in 7th grade, and creating my first research notecards. I dutifully scrawled quotation after quotation on those notecards, putting all the source information on the back. I can't remember what I wrote about though, for that 7th grade research paper. Literally nothing comes to mind. The first research assignment that I do remember came in 11th grade, when I participated in Minnesota's National History Day, making it to the State Finals with my project "The Column: Supporting Architecture through the Ages." I remember my architectural timeline, supported on a bridge of heavy white dominos across the front of my display board. I remember learning about Ionic, Corinthian, and Doric columns, and I've seen them all over the world in my travels since. I remember my virtual explorations of Athens, as I searched through various texts trying to figure out how the column worked, why it was so special, and what it looked like in buildings all over ancient Greece. I remember presenting my project in Duluth, sensing that I barely made it through with so many other great projects on hand, learning from the quality around me, and improving it before heading for Minneapolis. I remember going to Valley Fair, the amusement park I had had my eye on for years, after the state competition, with my Dad. It. Was. Awesome. My National History Day Project let me choose any topic of interest to me that fit whatever the general theme was that year. It let me use my love of design, color, lettering, and layout in addition to my research skills. It gave me an authentic audience to consider. I think I still had to use MLA citation format, but I was so busy with everything else that I wasn't about to let cracking that code stop me. I had a competition to win. (Not that I did, but I sure had fun trying). When I look back on my academic and professional life so far, research in service of real purpose, in an arena that truly interested me, with the ability to include modes that I enjoy working in, for an audience I truly hoped to impact, made all the difference in igniting my best work. So what if we warm our students up to research with activities, projects, and shorter writing pieces that focus more on elements like these, and less on notecards? What if, instead of jumping into huge MLA research papers with only one person - us - as the intended audience, we cast a wider net around the area of research and explore ways to give students more agency over topic, mode, and audience?

Top Stories for September 30th Publish Date: September 30th From The BG AD Group Studio, Welcome to the Gwinnett Daily Post Podcast. Today is Tuesday, September 30th and Happy Birthday to Fran Drescher I’m Peyton Spurlock and here are your top stories presented by KIA Mall of Georgia New Norcross development provides affordable housing for those 55 and up in Gwinnett Duluth’s Railway Museum plans two fall events Park Ridge BTR Townhomes Now Open for Leasing in Sugar Hill All of this and more is coming up on the Gwinnett Daily Post podcast, and if you are looking for community news, we encourage you to listen and subscribe! Break 1: Kia MOG STORY 1: New Norcross development provides affordable housing for those 55 and up in Gwinnett “As long as I can.” That’s how long Sharon Bryant, a retiree still working part-time, plans to stay in her new apartment at Sage 5430. The complex, which just opened near Beaver Ruin Road and Buford Highway, is a rare find: affordable, spacious, and brand new. Sage 5430 is the result of a four-year public-private effort to address Gwinnett’s growing need for affordable housing. The 70-unit complex serves seniors, homeless youth, and those aging out of foster care, with rents ranging from $1,062 to $1,655—well below market rates. Residents making 50–70% of the area’s median income can also qualify for subsidies. The need is urgent. Gwinnett’s population of seniors has exploded by 55% in the last decade, and more than half of senior renters are considered “cost-burdened,” spending over 30% of their income on housing. But getting here wasn’t easy. John Maddox, VP of development at Blue Ridge Atlantic, described the process as “playing Whack-a-Mole.” Construction costs spiked, interest rates climbed, and funding gaps kept appearing. Eventually, with help from Gwinnett County, the Norcross Housing Authority, and Georgia’s Department of Community Affairs, the project came together. And for Gwinnett, it’s a step forward in tackling a housing crisis that’s pricing out even middle-income families. STORY 2: Duluth’s Railway Museum plans two fall events The Southeastern Railway Museum in Duluth is gearing up for two big fall events, and train lovers of all ages are invited to join the fun. First up: “Train, Trunk or Treat” on Saturday, Oct. 18, starting at 10 a.m. It’s not just trick-or-treating anymore—it’s a full-on fall festival with a classic car show, train rides, a costume contest, live music, and even a scavenger hunt. Families and car owners are encouraged to dress up, and local businesses will be handing out candy from decorated trunks. Then, from Nov. 15 to Jan. 4, the museum’s annual Festival of Trees returns. Santa himself will arrive by train on Nov. 15, with more holiday magic possibly planned for December. The museum, located at 3595 Buford Highway, is also looking for local businesses to sponsor trees or host tables at these events. Interested? Visit train-museum.com or email info@train-museum.com. STORY 3: Park Ridge BTR Townhomes Now Open for Leasing in Sugar Hill Parkland Residential just opened its newest build-to-rent community, Park Ridge, in Sugar Hill—and leasing is officially underway. Curious? You can tour the model homes now and even snag some Grand Opening perks. When complete, Park Ridge will feature 140 rear-entry stacked townhomes. The first 72 are already in progress, with two floor plans to choose from: The Dogwood: 3 beds, 2.5 baths, loft, ~1,950 sq. ft. The Laurel: 2 beds, 2.5 baths, ~1,600 sq. ft. Each home includes a private garage, oversized primary suite, walk-in closet, and covered outdoor space overlooking greenspace—perfect for relaxing or hosting friends. Located across from E.E. Robinson Park and Sugar Hill Elementary, Park Ridge offers a maintenance-free lifestyle with lawn care, pest control, home repairs, and appliances (yes, even washers and dryers) included. Plus, you’re minutes from downtown Sugar Hill, The Bowl, and shopping at Costco, H-Mart, and more. Want to learn more? Visit www.ParkRidgeSugarHill.com. We have opportunities for sponsors to get great engagement on these shows. Call 770.874.3200 for more info. We’ll be right back Break 2: CITY OF SUGAR HILL STORY 4: Gwinnett police seeking suspect in fraudulent vehicle purchase Gwinnett Police are asking for help finding 33-year-old Anthony Sherlock, who’s wanted in a fraud case. Here’s what happened: On Sept. 5, Sherlock met with someone to buy a car. He handed over a check—but it turned out to be fake. By the time the bank flagged it as altered, the funds were gone, leaving the seller with a big loss. Sherlock is described as a Black man, about 5’9” and 155 pounds. If you know anything, call detectives at 770-513-5300. Want to stay anonymous? Contact Crime Stoppers at 404-577-TIPS or stopcrimeATL.com. Cash rewards are available. STORY 5: EXPLORING GWINNETT'S HISTORY: Elisha Winn Fair set for Oct. 4-5 The Elisha Winn Fair is back Oct. 4-5, celebrating one of Gwinnett County’s founders and the home where it all began. Elisha Winn built his house in 1811—seven years before Gwinnett even existed. By 1818, it became the county’s first courthouse, hosting elections, court sessions, and government meetings. Winn himself was sworn in as a judge right in his own parlor. Imagine that. But life wasn’t all smooth. Winn lost the home in a messy legal battle over land rights and spent his later years fighting for it. The house changed hands until the Gwinnett Historical Society restored it in 1978. Now, the fair—46 years strong—celebrates this history with the community. Don’t miss it! STORY 6: Police: Daughter charged in murder of 62-year-old woman A 33-year-old woman has been charged with murder after police say she fatally stabbed her 62-year-old mother at their home near the Gwinnett-DeKalb County line. Brittany Morris is accused of killing her mother, Janet Morris, on Thursday afternoon. Officers were called to their home on Deshong Drive around 4:30 p.m. and found Janet’s body—she’d died from apparent stab wounds. Police haven’t said what led to the attack, but Brittany was arrested later that day in another part of Gwinnett. Anyone with information can contact detectives or Crime Stoppers anonymously. STORY 7: BRACK: Lawrenceville's Loving Aid Society working to help in the future A Lawrenceville institution with roots stretching back to 1888 is closing its doors, but its legacy? That’s not going anywhere. The Loving Aid Society, founded by Laura Freeman Gholston and Bob Craig, was created to support Gwinnett’s Black community during a time when money was scarce for everyone. Members paid small monthly dues—just ten cents back then—to cover funeral costs and help the sick. Over the years, it became a cornerstone of self-reliance, hosting annual “Turn Out” gatherings filled with songs, prayers, and shared recipes. Their two-story building on Neal Boulevard once housed a funeral home, a church, and even a daycare. But now, with only three members left—Ruth Summerour, 90, and Glenda and Moses Abney, 74 and 78—the Society has sold its property to the City of Lawrenceville for $497,000. The remaining members are determined to use those funds to keep helping others, ensuring the spirit of the Loving Aid Society lives on. We’ll have closing comments after this.

Top Stories for September 23rd Publish Date: September 23rd From The BG AD Group Studio, Welcome to the Gwinnett Daily Post Podcast. Today is Tuesday, September 23rd and Happy Birthday to Ray Charles I’m Peyton Spurlock and here are your top stories presented by KIA Mall of Georgia Gwinnett's Public Safety Festival set for Sept. 27 Duluth native Riona Harris returns to Gas South Arena as part of Disney On Ice's 'Jump In!' show Immigration board orders Mario Guevara's deportation All of this and more is coming up on the Gwinnett Daily Post podcast, and if you are looking for community news, we encourage you to listen and subscribe! Break 1: Kia MOG STORY 1: Gwinnett's Public Safety Festival set for Sept. 27 So, here’s the deal: the 16th annual Public Safety Fall Festival is happening September 27, and honestly, it sounds like a blast. Coolray Field’s the spot—10 a.m. to 2 p.m., if you’re marking your calendar. It’s not just another festival. It’s a chance to actually meet the folks who keep Gwinnett running—police, fire, EMS, even the sheriff’s office. Ever wanted to climb inside a SWAT truck? Or see a fire engine up close? Yeah, they’ve got that. Oh, and the Peach State Rodeo is back! Cops on motorcycles doing wild stunts? Yes, please. Food trucks, face painting, giveaways—what’s not to love? STORY 2: Duluth native Riona Harris returns to Gas South Arena as part of Disney On Ice's 'Jump In!' show Riona Harris is coming home. Duluth’s own, now 24, is about to skate onto the Gas South Arena stage—not as a kid at halftime, but as a pro. Disney on Ice’s “Jump In!” kicks off Thursday, Sept. 25, and she’s in it. Eight shows. Big deal? Oh, absolutely. Riona’s been skating since she was 8, dreaming of this moment since a Disney show she saw with her mom. Now? She’s living it. Polar bears, flying donkeys, Moana villagers—she’s all in. Catch her while you can. STORY 3: Immigration board orders Mario Guevara's deportation Mario Guevara’s life is hanging by a thread. A journalist, a father, a Gwinnett County resident—he’s now sitting in an ICE detention center, facing deportation to El Salvador. Why? For doing his job. For reporting on immigration raids. He’s been in custody since June, after being arrested while covering a protest. Charges? Dropped. But ICE swooped in, digging up a 13-year-old immigration case. His lawyers say he’s here legally, on a work permit, with a path to residency. ICE says otherwise. The ACLU calls it retaliation. Journalism groups agree. And now? He could be deported any day. We have opportunities for sponsors to get great engagement on these shows. Call 770.874.3200 for more info. We’ll be right back Break 2: Ingles Markets STORY 4: It's that time again — Ghost Tours back in Lawrenceville  Downtown Lawrenceville’s about to get spooky—like, lanterns, ghosts, and bawdy songs kind of spooky. Aurora Theatre’s Haunted Happenings 2025 kicks off Sept. 19 and runs through Nov. 1, and honestly? There’s something for everyone. The Ghost Tour? A 90-minute stroll through the historic Square, packed with eerie tales and paranormal vibes. Feeling braver? The Haunted Cemetery Tour dives into one of the Southeast’s oldest graveyards—chilling stories included. For the grown-ups, there’s Brews & Boos (Oct. 3–30). Drinks, bawdy humor, and haunted history. Enough said. Oh, and don’t miss the Halloween Magic Show (Oct. 18) or the hilariously ridiculous 0.5K Fun Run (Oct. 11). STORY 5: Lawmakers urged to expedite move to new voting system Lawmakers looking to shake up Georgia’s voting system got an earful Thursday. The message? Hurry up—and don’t forget the money. Here’s the deal: a new law, pushed by Republicans, bans the QR codes used by voting machines to record votes. Starting July 1, poll workers need a new system. But what is it? No one knows yet. And, surprise, there’s no funding either. Election officials are stressed. Meanwhile, experts like UC Berkeley’s Philip Stark are calling for hand-marked ballots—cheaper, safer, and easier to audit. Georgia’s current system? Touchscreens, QR codes, and digital records. Stark says it’s flawed. Public opinion? All over the place. Some trust the system, others don’t. One speaker even forgot her point after four hours of debate. Next hearing? Oct. 2 in Covington. Stay tuned. STORY 6: Real work to find new GCPS superintendent begins The hunt for Gwinnett County’s next superintendent is in full swing, and, wow, it’s a process. Alma Advisory Group, the firm leading the search, says they’re listening—like, really listening. There’s a survey online (already 1,400+ responses), and community meetings are happening all over. They’re casual, no-pressure events with translators, childcare, and even a “come late, it’s fine” vibe. People are showing up, sharing what they want: honesty, transparency, someone who can unite a divided board. The job’s huge. Gwinnett’s the biggest, most diverse district in Georgia. No pressure, right? STORY 7: SEC Pipeline: Gwinnett Sending 7 Seniors to Top Softball Conference Every October, when the Georgia state softball tournaments roll into Columbus, Gwinnett County shows up—loud and proud. It’s not just a presence; it’s dominance. Last year? Five of the eight Class 6A teams were from Gwinnett. Add in private schools and other classifications, and the numbers are staggering. And it’s not just state titles. Gwinnett’s pipeline to the SEC is unreal. Nine former players are already on SEC rosters, and next year? Seven more seniors are heading to powerhouse programs like LSU, Florida, and Texas A&M. The county’s investment in youth sports, the coaching, the rivalries—it’s all created a softball factory. And now, the SEC is reaping the rewards. We’ll have closing comments after this. Break 4: Ingles Markets Signoff – Thanks again for hanging out with us on today’s Gwinnett Daily Post Podcast.

GDP Script/ Top Stories for September 20th Publish Date: September 20th PRE-ROLL: From the BG AD Group Studio Welcome to the Gwinnett Daily Post Podcast. Today is Saturday, September 20th and Happy Birthday to Red Auerbach I’m Peyton Spurlock and here are your top stories presented by Gwinnett KIA Mall of Georgia. Suwanee Fest promises a dino-mite time this weekend Atlanta Gas Light Foundation and Goodr host free pop-up grocery market in Gwinnett Heart extends Royal Flush tour — coming to Gwinnett's Gas South Arena in February Plus, the Stripers report with pitcher Davis Daniel All of this and more is coming up on the Gwinnett Daily Post podcast, and if you are looking for community news, we encourage you to listen daily and subscribe! Break 1: 07.14.22 KIA MOG STORY 1: Suwanee Fest promises a dino-mite time this weekend  Suwanee Fest is going full Jurassic for its 41st anniversary this weekend, and honestly? It sounds like a blast. Kicking off Saturday at 9 a.m., the parade promises floats, costumes, and enough dinosaur vibes to make you feel like you’re in Jurassic Park. After that, Town Center Park transforms into a prehistoric playground—vendors selling everything from pottery to snacks, and a Family Fun Zone packed with fossil digs, science experiments, and even a baby dino hatching. New this year? The Youth on the Rise Tent, where young entrepreneurs (18 and under) show off their creativity. Plus, live music all weekend—NeXus Drumline, Stayin’ Alive Crew, and more. Don’t forget the photo booth for your dino-moment! STORY 2: Atlanta Gas Light Foundation and Goodr host free pop-up grocery market in Gwinnett On Sept. 12, the Atlanta Gas Light Foundation and Goodr teamed up to host a free Pop-Up Grocery Market at Shorty Howell Park in Duluth, and it was a lifeline for nearly 200 families. Volunteers handed out over 5,200 pounds of food—meat, fresh produce, dairy, bread, snacks, you name it. Enough to stock pantries for a week. But here’s the thing: food insecurity is still a massive issue in Georgia. In Gwinnett County alone, 12.2% of residents struggle to put food on the table. Goodr’s pop-up model? It’s fast, efficient, and, most importantly, respectful. Since 2021, Atlanta Gas Light has donated $400,000 to support Goodr’s mission to fight hunger and food waste. STORY 3: Heart extends Royal Flush tour — coming to Gwinnett's Gas South Arena in February Heart’s still got it—Ann and Nancy Wilson aren’t slowing down anytime soon. Their “Royal Flush” tour? Yeah, it’s rolling right into 2026. They just dropped the news: first stop of the new leg? Gwinnett’s Gas South Arena, February 15. Mark your calendar. Thirteen dates, all over the South and Midwest. Some big arena shows, sure, but also these intimate “An Evening with Heart” gigs. Sounds like magic, doesn’t it? The whole thing wraps up March 15 in Fishers, Indiana. Oh, and Lucinda Williams? She’s tagging along for most of it. That’s a double bill you don’t wanna miss. We have opportunities for sponsors to get great engagement on these shows. Call 770.874.3200 for more info. We’ll be right back Break 2: Ingles Markets 2 STRIPERS INTERVIEW Break 3: STORY 6: Georgia lawmakers, keen on abolishing income tax, hear from other states without one Georgia Republicans are doubling down on their push to eliminate the state income tax, but they’re drawing a line: no new taxes on groceries, housing, or gas. Sen. Blake Tillery, who’s also running for lieutenant governor—got a Republican-led study committee to agree on that much Wednesday. But here’s the catch: cutting the 5.19% income tax means lawmakers have to either slash the budget or find new revenue streams. Other states without income taxes, like Florida and Texas, lean heavily on sales taxes. Florida, for example, gets 75% of its revenue from a 6% sales tax. Not everyone’s sold. Sen. Nan Orrock, argued sales taxes hit low-income families hardest. But Republicans, like former Texas budget director Sarah Hicks, say businesses—and jobs—follow low taxes. Georgia’s already inching toward this goal, gradually lowering its income tax rate since 2022. The next hearing? October. STORY 7: Duluth High Student Kei Nagata Wins Prestigious Alexander Hamilton Scholar Award Duluth High’s Kei Nagata just snagged the prestigious Alexander Hamilton Scholar Award—an honor that screams leadership, grit, and heart. Out of nearly 800 applicants nationwide, only 26 students made the cut this year, and Kei’s one of them. The award, given by the Seattle-based Alexander Hamilton Scholars, isn’t just about a shiny title. It’s about mentorship, education, and the kind of determination Hamilton himself embodied—rising from poverty to greatness. Kei will join a tight-knit group of future changemakers, gaining access to internships, leadership training, and $1,000 in scholarships. We’ll have closing comments after this Break 4: Ingles Markets 2 Signoff – Thanks again for hanging out with us on today’s Gwinnett Daily Post Podcast.

GDP Script/ Top Stories for September 13th Publish Date: September 13th PRE-ROLL: From the BG AD Group Studio Welcome to the Gwinnett Daily Post Podcast. Today is Saturday, September 13th and Happy Birthday to Joni Sledge I’m Peyton Spurlock and here are your top stories presented by Gwinnett KIA Mall of Georgia. Health insurance changes coming to Georgia Paraglider hospitalized after crash at Barrow County Airport Peach Bowl and College Football Playoff Foundation team up for makeover at Lilburn Middle School All of this and more is coming up on the Gwinnett Daily Post podcast, and if you are looking for community news, we encourage you to listen daily and subscribe! Break 1: 07.14.22 KIA MOG STORY 1: Health insurance changes coming to Georgia Brace yourselves, Georgia. Health-care advocates are sounding the alarm: insurance rates on the government marketplace are set to spike next year. Why? Insurers blame federal budget cuts and the end of COVID-era tax credits, according to Anthony Wright of Families USA. And who’s hit hardest? Folks without job-based coverage—think restaurant servers, gig workers, barbers, plumbers, and other self-employed Georgians. The numbers are grim. KFF says half a million could lose coverage, while Georgians for a Healthy Future estimates 340,000, with rates jumping 75%. STORY 2: Paraglider hospitalized after crash at Barrow County Airport  A paraglider crashed at Barrow County Airport in Winder on Thursday afternoon and was rushed to the hospital, according to the Barrow County Sheriff’s Office. Details? Pretty scarce. Deputies and firefighters got the call around 1:04 p.m. about the crash. When they arrived, the man was breathing but unresponsive—scary stuff. He’s now in the hospital, and the FAA is stepping in to investigate what went wrong. Sheriff Jud Smith praised the quick-thinking citizen who called 911, saying their actions helped first responders get there fast. STORY 3: Peach Bowl and College Football Playoff Foundation team up for makeover at Lilburn Middle School Lilburn Middle School just got a serious upgrade, thanks to Peach Bowl, Inc. and the College Football Playoff Foundation. As part of their Extra Yard Makeover initiative, the school’s STEM lab was completely renovated—and unveiled Tuesday during a ribbon-cutting ceremony. Students and teachers got their first look at the revamped space, and let’s just say, jaws dropped. The $200,000 partnership has already transformed eight schools, including Hope Hill Elementary and North Clayton Middle. Oh, and one lucky teacher? Surprised with $1,000 for classroom projects. We have opportunities for sponsors to get great engagement on these shows. Call 770.874.3200 for more info. We’ll be right back Break 2: Ingles Markets 9 STORY 4: Hussey Gay Bell expands Duluth architectural studio with addition of Victor Rodriguez Hussey Gay Bell has welcomed Victor Rodriguez as a project manager in its Duluth office, and it sounds like they’ve landed a pro. Rodriguez, who calls Duluth home, brings nearly 10 years of experience in architectural design, project management, and permitting. He’s got a knack for navigating codes, reviewing shop drawings, and keeping clients happy—basically, the guy knows his stuff. A Kennesaw State grad with additional training in project and practice management, Rodriguez is set to make waves in the firm’s seven core markets, from healthcare to transportation. Founded in 1958, Hussey Gay Bell now operates eight offices across the Southeast. STORY 5: Valdosta State president leaving for California post Valdosta State University President Richard Carvajal is heading west. Come January 20, he’ll take the helm at California State Polytechnic University, Humboldt, leaving behind nearly a decade of leadership at VSU. Carvajal stepped in during a rocky time in 2017—he was the seventh president in just eight years—and brought much-needed stability. Under his watch, VSU hit milestones: record graduate enrollment, campus renovations, and a $39 million performing arts center in progress. Break 3: STORY 6: Buford woman wins Mrs. America crown Growing up in tiny Glennville, Georgia, Paige Ewing (née Armstrong) dabbled in pageants—Junior Miss Tattnall County, Miss Pinewood Christian Academy, even Miss Georgia Onion (yes, that’s a thing). At 18, she won Miss Tattnall County and competed in Miss Georgia, but after that? She figured her pageant days were over. Life moved on. Fast forward to this summer: Paige, now a wife, mom, business owner, and grief coach, was crowned Mrs. Georgia. Then, in August, she took the national title—Mrs. America.

GDP Script/ Top Stories for September 6th Publish Date: September 6th PRE-ROLL: From the BG AD Group Studio Welcome to the Gwinnett Daily Post Podcast. Today is Saturday, September 6th and Happy Birthday to Rodger Waters I’m Peyton Spurlock and here are your top stories presented by Gwinnett KIA Mall of Georgia. Former Secretary of State staffer running for the office Gwinnett Sheriff's Office looking for applicants for Explorers program A year later, Apalachee High students recount living through a mass shooting Plus, the Stripers report with Jim Jarvis All of this and more is coming up on the Gwinnett Daily Post podcast, and if you are looking for community news, we encourage you to listen daily and subscribe! Break 1: 07.14.22 KIA MOG STORY 1: Former Secretary of State staffer running for the office  Gabriel Sterling, once a top aide to Georgia Secretary of State Brad Raffensperger, is officially throwing his hat in the ring for the state’s top elections job. He filed paperwork Tuesday to raise funds and confirmed Thursday he’s running. Sterling, who fiercely defended Georgia’s 2020 election results against Trump’s baseless fraud claims, will face Kelvin King in the GOP primary. King supports hand-counting ballots, a hot-button issue as Georgia’s voting system evolves. The race is heating up STORY 2: Gwinnett Sheriff's Office looking for applicants for Explorers program The Gwinnett County Sheriff’s Office is shaping future law enforcement pros through its Explorer Post 699 Program—a hands-on initiative that’s been running strong since 2006. It’s not just about learning the ropes of law enforcement; it’s about building life skills, leadership, and teamwork in a supportive, structured environment. Recently, Post 699 Explorers crushed it at the Law Enforcement Exploring Academy, completing 40 grueling hours of training—classroom lessons, intense simulations, the works. They walked away with six awards, including Leadership, Physical Fitness, and the coveted Academy Honor Graduate. Interested? If you’re 14–20, email Sergeant Adrien Filer or check out GoGCSO.com. STORY 3: A year later, Apalachee High students recount living through a mass shooting Sasha Contreras was sitting in Spanish class at Apalachee High on Sept. 4 last year when everything changed. She didn’t hear the gunshots—they were too far away—but an hour earlier, she’d been in math class with Ana Cristina Irimie. Sasha left that class smiling, not knowing it’d be the last time she’d see her teacher alive. Irimie, along with students Christian Angulo, Mason Schermerhorn, and coach Ricky Aspinwall, was killed that morning. The shooter, 14-year-old Colt Gray, faces murder charges, while his father, Colin Gray, is charged for arming him. Barrow County is still grappling with the tragedy. On Thursday, former and current students gathered at the Capitol to honor the victims and share their pain. In response to the shooting, Georgia lawmakers passed a school safety bill in March, requiring schools to track and share records of students with troubling behavior. Another law doubled death benefits for teachers killed “in the line of duty.” We have opportunities for sponsors to get great engagement on these shows. Call 770.874.3200 for more info. We’ll be right back Break 2: Ingles Markets 6 STRIPERS INTERVIEW Break 3: STORY 6: Activists call for greater scrutiny of data centers Diana Dietz, a retired nurse and Fayette County resident, didn’t hold back Thursday when she spoke to state lawmakers about the impact of data centers on her community. Dietz made it clear: “This isn’t anti-AI or anti-data centers. But you need to see what’s happening.” Data centers, like Excalibur, are popping up across Georgia to meet the skyrocketing energy demands of AI. But they’re guzzling water, electricity, and, according to environmentalists like Mark Woodall of the Sierra Club, stalling progress toward clean energy. STORY 7: Rainbow Village set to expand its campus — and fight — against homelessness For 34 years, Rainbow Village has been a lifeline for homeless families, helping them rebuild their lives. Now, as it approaches its 35th year, the Duluth nonprofit is gearing up to double its impact. By the end of the month, they’ll break ground on a major campus expansion, adding two new apartment buildings to their current 30-unit setup. Soon, they’ll be able to house 66 families—single parents, grandparents raising grandkids, couples, older boys—any family in need. Families stay up to two years, learning to budget, save, and heal. Rent includes utilities, internet, and access to counseling, life skills classes, and kids’ programs. The $15 million project, funded by donations, grants, and Gwinnett County support, is 73% funded. Construction starts Sept. 29, with completion expected in a year. For details, visit rainbowvillage.org.
