This episode of the Tactical Living Podcast, hosted by Coach Ashlie Walton and Sergeant Clint Walton, explores what happens when the job that once gave you purpose, structure, belonging, and identity (Amazon Affiliate) is suddenly gone. Whether retirement was planned, forced, medical, or accelerated by burnout — the emotional fallout can feel like a quiet identity collapse. Many officers describe the transition not as relief, but as loss. Loss of routine. Loss of brotherhood. Loss of purpose. Loss of who they believed they were. This episode helps make sense of that experience — and offers a path to rebuild identity that isn't dependent on the uniform.

The last few years have seen an influx of Northern college students flocking to big Southern Universities. Whether they're attracted to college football season, a robust Greek life, cheaper tuition prices or HBCUs, the impact remains the same: an increased “southernization” of American culture. Jonquilyn Hill, host of the Explain It to Me podcast at Vox, has been exploring the newfound appeal of the American South. She joins us for more. Our airing of  Wetlands Radio, a series about coastal restoration from producer Eve Abrams, continues this week. Last week, we explored ways to build more land to restore our coast. Today, we hear how to foster that land and make it a home for native plants and animals. While it's important to make our land a healthy home for all plants and animals, some species require specific care. In honor of the start of hummingbird season this fall, we zero in on how to curate a bird feeder specifically to attract this musical creature. Erik Johnson, ornithologist and assistant professor at the LSU School of Renewable Natural Resources, tells us how to attract the bird and protect them from cold weather. —Today's episode of Louisiana Considered was hosted by Karen Henderson. Our managing producer is Alana Schreiber. We receive production and technical support from Garrett Pittman, Adam Vos and our assistant producer, Aubry Procell. You can listen to Louisiana Considered Monday through Friday at noon and 7 p.m. It's available on Spotify, the NPR App and wherever you get your podcasts. Louisiana Considered wants to hear from you! Please fill out our pitch line to let us know what kinds of story ideas you have for our show. And while you're at it, fill out our listener survey! We want to keep bringing you the kinds of conversations you'd like to listen to.Louisiana Considered is made possible with support from our listeners. Thank you!
