But what about when that person is someone your entire audience has, in a matter of speaking, invited into their homes for decades? Someone they already feel like they know and, more importantly, love?Directors Steve Farr and Michael Vollmann didn't just take on that impossible task; they sought it out.What eventually became the Ueck documentary started back in 2023 at the pair's production company, September Club, as they searched for an idea that was Milwaukee down to its core — something they could film here and would give back to the community in some way. The first name that came up? Bob Uecker.Farr, who joined us for this episode of Cinebuds, had worked with the Baseball Hall-of-Famer a few years prior and reached out to see if the idea could turn into something more. That led to an epic lunch — nearly five hours long, according to Farr — where Uecker regaled the directors with stories, clearly signaling that he was on board with the project.Filming began a few months later and continued for a couple years, culminating with the premiere of Ueck at the Milwaukee Film Festival this past April and the theatrical release that starts this Friday at select Marcus locations before hitting more theaters in early August (more details are available on the documentary's website).In this episode, Farr shares even more behind-the-scenes details about how the film went from brainstorm to big screens, what it was like working with a legend in the last years of his life and the unexpected things waiting for audiences — even the biggest fans of Uecker — when they catch Ueck in theaters.#####Cinebuds is sponsored by Joe Wilde Garage Doors.

Many people in small communities on Prince of Wales Island in Alaska rely on hunting for subsistence. And staff at one school district want to make sure they do it safely – by making hunter education a part of the curriculum. KRBD's Sydney Dauphinais went to the student's end of year field test and has this story. It is a cloudy morning at the Prince of Wales Shooting Club. Emma Garrison, a ninth grader from Thorne Bay, is trying to keep her gun steady. “Ohhh my gosh.” She and eight other students, all armed with rifles and safety gear, line up on yoga mats under a three sided shelter. She has been taking the Hunter Ed class all semester. Today, she's putting her studying to the test. “I was really nervous. Yesterday was the first day I'd ever shot a gun, so.” There are over 30 students from the Southeast Island School District taking their hunters ed certification field test today. If the students pass, they get Hunter Ed certified. This was the first year the district incorporated Hunter Education into the curriculum, with a goal to get every student from sixth to twelfth grades certified. The certification, which is through the Alaska Department of Fish and Game, is required for most Alaskans to legally hunt. And in many smaller Prince of Wales Island communities, hunting is a key part of the lifestyle. The Southeast Island School district is spread out with under 150 students in seven remote schools across Prince of Wales and Baranof Islands, but all the students at the shooting club today have spent the last semester taking the course. Ellen Hannan is a retired teacher and a volunteer with Fish and Game. She has been teaching Hunter Ed in Southeast for 25 years. “Raise your hand, how many people have shot before? Anytime, anywhere, anything?” Most of the students raise their hands. Hannan says that is why the class is so important. She knows many of these students are around guns from  a young age and she wants them to be safe. The number one rule: always treat guns as if they are loaded, to help keep yourself and others safe. Hannan helps the students hold and load their guns, shooting targets in four positions: laying down, kneeling, sitting, and standing. “So what you've gotta do is get four outta five shots in a 2 inch circle. That means it touches it anywhere.” Down towards the clubhouse, students are taking a walk through the forest. It is part of the field test to identify cardboard animals and discern when, how, and if it is ethical to shoot them. One of the students is Wyatt Farr, an eighth grader from Coffman Cove.  He has been hunting with his family for years. “It’s fun. I just like, yeah, I like being outdoors, and like actually doing things, instead of like sitting there playing video games.” Farr likes to hunt deer and grouse – and wants to hunt bears soon. He says his favorite part is enjoying the meat he has processed, but he also likes how calm and quiet it is in the outdoors The course also includes basic survival skills, wildlife conservation and respect for other hunters. That's part of what he likes about it. “So there’s not like just like clueless people going out walking in the woods and like getting hurt and stuff, and it's also like teaching the generations to come how to like properly do things.” Every teacher teaches the class a little differently. Melissa Dougherty, a teacher at Thorne Bay with a background in biology, designed the curriculum so it blends with broader outdoor education. She knows the outdoors are a big part of her students’ lives and she wants them to be aware of their surroundings. She says killing an animal is a serious thing – and she wants her students to be thoughtful and observant when they are out in nature. “I think it’s really important to spend time thinking about how you fit into your environment and gaining an appreciation for the world around you.” At the end of the day, every student passed their hunter's ed field test and received their signed certificate – which is valid for life.

Recorded live at the 2026 National Planning Conference in Detroit, this special APA Podcast episode features an intimate and uplifting conversation between host Mike Johnson and NPC26 keynote speaker Jaz Ampaw-Farr— an internationally acclaimed British motivational speaker, leadership consultant, and self described "resilience ninja". Jaz earned mainstream recognition in the UK as a candidate on Series 9 of the BBC reality show The Apprentice and later via her popular TEDx talk, The Power of Everyday Heroes. Jaz recounts her challenging upbringing in foster care, the transformative impact of five teachers who believed in her, and how sharing her story led to global speaking engagements and her acclaimed book, "Because of You, This Is Me." The conversation explores practical strategies for planners to cultivate courage and resilience, including the concept of being "10% braver"—taking small, incremental steps toward positive change. Jaz emphasizes the power of courageous conversations, reframing "should" stories that hold us back, and the importance of self-care as a foundation for serving others. She also shares advice on authentic public speaking, overcoming imposter syndrome, and connecting meaningfully with audiences. Discover how empathy, engagement, and enrollment drive effective change, why acknowledging every success matters, and how planners, like runners in a relay race, contribute to a larger legacy they may never see bloom. This episode is packed with heartfelt anecdotes, practical wisdom, and a call to action for planners and everyday heroes to write their own stories and lead with authenticity.

Previously on Saga of the Jewels…The life of seventeen-year-old RYN, bookish son of a wealthy landowner, changes forever when his hometown is destroyed by the EMPIRE and everyone he has ever known is killed. Ryn discovers that the Empire are seeking TWELVE PRIMEVAL JEWELS which grant the power to manipulate different elements, and that his father had been hiding the FIRE RUBY. He sets out to take revenge on the Imperial General who killed his family and retrieve the Fire Ruby, and along the way meets NUTHEA the lightning-slinging princess, SAGAR the swaggering skypirate, ELRANN the tomboy engineer, CID the wizened old healer, and VISH the poppy-seed-addicted bounty hunter. Together the companions decide to find all of the Jewels in order to stop the evil EMPEROR from finding them first and taking over the world. They have thus far succeeded in retrieving the Fire Ruby, borne by Ryn, and the Lightning Crystal, borne by Nuthea. They have now come to the land of FARR where they intend to compete in a hand-to-hand fighting tournament in an attempt to win its prize, the EARTH EMERALD…EPISODE FORTY-FOUR: THE TOURNAMENT: GRAND FINALClouds were gathering.Win this tournament, Ryn thought, as fast as possible. Get the Earth Emerald. Get out of here. Find the other Jewels. Save the world. Stay with Nuthea. Live a meaningful life.Don't lose.The hulking figure of Huld regarded him from the other side of the arena, bald and brawny in his green robes. The monk stood legs apart with one foot slightly further forward than the other, hands held up with splayed fingers in a fighting stance, something he had not even done for Sagar.Sagar had forfeited his match in the end to chase after some woman he had fought earlier while Ryn and Nuthea had been speaking to the Governor. That meant that Ryn had to fight Huld instead of the skypirate.He was actually more nervous at the prospect of fighting the monk, but at least he wasn't having to fight a friend. Cid had healed Ryn after his last match against Vish, so that he was fighting fit again and ready. But Huld hadn't even needed any healing after his match with Sagar, despite it being offered according to their agreement with the Governor.The Farrian audience made no sound at all. Ryn could hear his own breathing. He reviewed his plan. He had already decided how he would open in this match. He didn't want the monk to have an opportunity to get close to him. The boy knew he couldn't win against Huld in a straight fight, but if he was able to keep the monk at bay with his elemental projection, he might just have a chance. Vish had said as much, anyway, and Vish knew a lot more about fighting than he did.“READY……FIGHT!” shouted the announcer for the last time that day.Ryn flung his hands forwards immediately, launching a hot, orange fireball at Huld.The monk made a raising hand gesture at once and a section of the stone arena floor rose up to form a wall in front of him, which the fireball broke apart on, scorching it black.Cid's words of advice echoed in Ryn's mind: Elemental projections still obey the normal laws of nature. Fire may consume earth or wood or vegetation, but it cannot burn stone. It is young man's Huld's body that will be especially susceptible to fire attacks.But that meant Ryn would need to land a hit on Huld's body.The wall of stone that the monk had raised suddenly broke off from the floor and shot towards Ryn, a man-sized slab rushing along the ground.He dived to one side out of the way, lost his footing and stumbled over, but then came up again as fast he could, not wanting to spare Huld a single moment to exploit, throwing another fireball at him as he rose.This one the monk dodged, casually side-stepping out of its path.Ryn threw another. Another. Another, trying to anticipate where the monk was going to dodge to next. This tactic had just about worked on Vish, but somehow Huld sidestepped and weaved so unpredictably that Ryn couldn't hit him. The fireballs only hit with the floor or shot over the heads of the audience. Huld didn't jump into the air like Vish had, and he didn't even bother using earth manipulation to block Ryn's projectiles any more.It looked like landing a hit was going to be even more difficult than he had thought.His first tactic exhausted, hot panic flooded Ryn's head. He lit himself on fire with a shout and ran at Huld. If he couldn't land a hit with a ranged attack, he would just have to try hitting him up close.The flames billowed around Ryn's body as he ran. The monk held his ground, standing stone still with bunched fists.Ryn arrived putting all of his weight behind a mad punch, another angry shout involuntarily issuing from his lips.He almost connected, but at the last moment Huld side-stepped out of the way again and Ryn went past him.Fearing a counter, Ryn turned immediately with a flaming kick. The monk took a step back out of the way of it.Ryn tried another kick with his other leg, then another and another, then even threw in one of Vish's roundhouse kicks, surprised that he had remembered how to do it from the week's training.The monk moved out of the way of them all. His movements were deliberate, controlled, efficient, expending the minimal amount of energy required to dodge out of the way of the Ryn's desperate attacks.The boy switched back to punches, chasing after Huld and flinging his fists out at the monk, who only danced away from them.Ryn came to a halt, breathing hard, the fire around his body still burning, having failed to land a single hit.Huld merely continued to regard him from where he had ended up a few paces away, now holding his hands behind his back.Damn it, but the monk wasn't just strong, he was also so fast. A man that size shouldn't be able to move so quickly!“Are you toying with me?” Ryn asked, keeping his voice quiet so that the crowd, and Nuthea, wouldn't hear.“No,” the monk said straightforwardly with his omnipresent smile. “I am just observing your style some more.” Then the smile disappeared into a flat line, possibly the first time that Ryn had seen it drop. “What there is of it, at least. This would be toying with you, foreigner.”A wedge of stone rose up out of the floor in front of Ryn, smashing into his chest, hitting him so hard he was chucked up into the air.His fire went out.He hung for a moment at the apex of his flight, aware that he was about to fall back to earth.But then something else smacked into his back, bright pain erupting across it, one, two, three times, he lost count in the pain.Now he flew upwards, delirious with shock, the dark clouds in the sky getting nearer for a few moments, then hung weightless once more.He began to fall again, and as he did so he turned over in the air helplessly and fell head-first.Huld, moving towards him, standing atop a pillar of stone that he was causing to rise up from the ground.The monk reached him and punched him in the stomach.Now Ryn was thrown along the horizontal, he knew from the thrilled faces of the crowd that passed below.He was going to land among them, out of bounds.No I'm not, damn it!He found his bearings and thrust his hands in the direction he was moving in, projecting fire from them. Jets of flame appeared, the push-back from them arresting his flight, then reversing it, so that he began to move back the way he had come, flipping over and beginning to fly back into the arena, now holding his hands out behind him.He shut his jaw tight against the pain setting in all over his body, then looked for where he was going to land.Huld had come down from his pillar and stood waiting, no sign of surprise on his smiling face at all.Ryn found the wherewithal to light himself on fire again, and at the same time he projected fire from the soles of his feet, further accelerating his flight, and directed himself at the monkBut Huld still had time to raise another stone barrier before Ryn made impact.Ryn screamed with rage and pulled his limbs in to his chest, curling himself up and holding his fists in front of his face.He cannonballed into the wall, the impact smashing against his forearms and rattling his teeth, then heard the shuddering sound of stone breaking apart.He collided with Huld beyond it in a shower of stone and dust, smacking full into the monk's body and bouncing off him and to the side, where he hit the floor hard, bounced a few more times and came to a stop on his back.Spinning dark clouds above him, and the noise of the audience's angry shouts in his ears.He groaned as the pain caught up to him fully. Terrible, aching bruises on his arms, the backs of his hands, his chest, his back, his stomach, his head. His whole body throbbed with them. His flame-aura had extinguished again, but at least he was still conscious, and he was dimly hopeful that the flames had still been around him when he had collided with Huld.The monk wasn't following up with any attacks, Ryn realised.In spite of the pain, he forced his body to turn over and push itself shakily to its feet.Sure enough, the monk was only just getting up from where he had landed some length away himself, near one edge of the arena.A blackened semi-circle marred the front of his robes where they hung down over his chest from one shoulder. Little flames still burned here and there on them.Huld grunted as he grabbed the robes with one hand and tore off the top of them, ripping them from his body and throwing them out of the arena where they landed in the sand in a smouldering heap, leaving only his legs covered.His chest, a chiselled arrangement of discrete rectangular muscles, was now marked by its own big, purple bruise where Ryn had cannonballed into him when on fire. The monk grimaced–he was standing, but he didn't look like he was going to attack again in a hurry.The crowd roared their one-sided approval of Huld standing up, but Ryn still detected a note of anger that the Farrian had suffered a hit.Cid was right! Ryn thought amidst the delirium of his ringing head. He could hurt Huld if he connected with him while on fire.But it had taken an awful lot just to connect with him. Ryn couldn't do that again–there was no way that he could throw himself through a barrier of stone again just to land a single hit on his opponent. His body was bruised and bleeding from smashing through the wall and he could barely think straight. And his fireball attacks were useless too–Huld was so fast he just dodged out of the way of them.He needed a way of guaranteeing that his fire attack would connect with Huld, without breaking his body in the process.Ryn had an idea.A last-ditch, bet-it-all, everything-or-nothing kind of idea.It was crazy, but it was the best chance he had right now.He took a deep breath, trying not to wince at the stabs of protest from his ribs. He would definitely need Cid to heal him after this match, whatever its outcome. He gathered his energy and concentrated on where he was going to project it.Huld frowned at him, wavy lines carving his forehead, and Ryn enjoyed that the monk wasn't smiling anymore.“Fiiiiireaaaaaagggggggaaaahhhh!” Ryn shouted, lifting his hands straight up palms-out towards the sky, his focus-word cracking and turning into an agonised cry of effort and then pain as he broke his limit.Flames rose all over the arena.He willed them upwards from the floor, searing and intense, so that they engulfed the entire arena, engulfed him, engulfed Huld, and all was consumed in an exploding inferno of red and orange and yellow fire that leapt up higher than their heads.Somewhere distant he heard the audience calling out in surprise, but he barely paid them any attention.He was at home in the roar of the fire. He didn't feel it as burning heat, but as a delighting, exultant expulsion of energy.After a few moments his arms began to quiver with new pain. He was aware that he had almost exhausted all of his energy, or ‘mana', or whatever Cid called it, and he suddenly let the flames cease, keeping back just a bit of it in reserve in case this attack didn't work.The inferno disappeared, leaving only steam hissing up from the now hot stone tiles of the arena.And there lay Huld, on his side, his body and his remaining robes blackened and burned.Oh no.“Cid!” Ryn shouted as he sprinted as fast as he could manage over to where the monk lay. “Help! I think I might have killed him!”He reached the monk and knelt on both knees next to him. The monk's eyes were shut; his mouth open.But his chest was still moving up and down.The monk's hand shot out and grabbed Ryn's wrist, tight as a vice.The boy went rigid with shock.Huld opened his eyes, brown irises shining. “No, you haven't killed me, foreigner,” he rasped, “though you may have come close. And I hope now that you have used up enough of your energy that you won't be able to do that again.”Huld's fist hit Ryn in the nose and he went over, skidding along on his back and coming to rest. He clutched his face against the pain and tasted the metallic tang of blood as it ran down into his mouth.He stumbled up again.Huld had got to his feet and was staring at him defiantly, jaw set in grim, stony determination.Ryn couldn't believe this man. What strength did he possess, what unfathomable reserves of endurance, that he was able to stand up again and continue to fight when his body and face were red and brown and covered in burns?But at the same time, it looked as though the fire attack had weakened him considerably. And his latest punch hadn't hit quite as hard as before. And the monk was trembling slightly, clearly struggling to stay standing.Maybe now this would be more of a fair fight.Ryn's heart missed a beat. Huld was running towards him.The monk arrived with a punch that Ryn side-stepped, to his own amazement. His attack had slowed the monk down, too.He countered with a punch of his own, which the monk blocked, palming it away harmlessly into the air to the side of him, but no counter came and Ryn had time to try another, which found Huld's gut.“Ungh,” the monk grunted, and took a step backwards. He had hardly been bowled over by the punch, but he had taken the full brunt of it, and it had clearly hurt him.He had been weakened. This would be a fairer fight now.Ryn ran in again and the pair traded more blows. He found that he was able to land some punches and kicks on Huld, and they even seemed to hurt him and knocked him back. He was able to dodge some of Huld's strikes as well, though some still connected with him and hurt like all the hells, but they didn't send him flying across the arena as they had done before.The two of them continued like that for some time, grunting and groaning and flinging their limbs against each other's increasingly worn-out bodies in what Ryn knew had to be the endgame of this match–neither of them could last at this much longer.Then Huld used his earth projection again.The monk willed a pillar of stone up out of the arena floor, aiming it at Ryn–but it didn't move with the rapidity that it had done before. It came up slowly, like Huld was straining to pull it out, and Ryn was able to stagger out of the way of it, then strafe round and run back in to punch Huld, who blocked and lost his concentration, losing his mental grip on the pillar and letting it sink back into the floor.The monk tried several more earth attacks, interspersing them more or less effectively among his forced and stuttered movements, but Ryn had time to get out of the way of them, and they all fell short.Ryn stumbled back a few steps to regather himself, and watched Huld, who for the moment kept his distance too.He's got some mana left, Ryn thought, but he's been severely weakened by my fire. His projections are slower. I can win this.Still, the longer they kept going this way, the more tired Ryn was getting, and the more likely he was going to be caught out by an earth projection or one of Huld's blows. After all, even though he was burned and blackened and bruised, at the end of the day the monk was still far bigger, stronger and faster than Ryn was just in terms of the raw size, strength and speed of their bodies.It was time to finish this.Ryn drew on the last of his energy and lit himself on fire one more time. His whole body ached in complaint as he drew on the last of his physical reserves to project.Huld's eyes grew and his mouth dropped. No doubt he was shocked that Ryn had any energy left himself. But Ryn wasn't using his mana—which was gone. He was projecting from his physical energy.Ryn ran at Huld, pulling his fist back for what he was sure would be the final blow of this final match. The monk wouldn't have time to hit him with an earth attack. This was it.Time slowed.As Ryn's fist got closer, through the flames surrounding his body he saw Huld raising both his hands.Unable to arrest the momentum of his run, Ryn watched in horror as the stone of the arena floor rose up around Huld and encased the monk, moulding around his body to turn him into a brown-stone-encrusted golem.Ryn didn't have time to pull back, and followed through with his punch. His fist crunched into the centre of the stone golem's chest and stopped, his knuckles cracking against it.“Ow,” said Ryn.And then pain sang out from his knuckles so loud he yelped and howled and shook his hand up and down.Huld's eyes looked at him from within the little slit in the stone encasing that the monk had left for them. The muscles around them tightened. He appeared to be smiling once again within his earthen armour.The Huld-golem pulled back a stone fist, and then delivered a massive, jumping uppercut to Ryn's chin that he had no time to block.Ryn lost a moment of consciousness, but regained it while he was still hurtling through the air.He hit the sand outside the arena on his back at the same time he realised that he couldn't scream properly anymore because his jaw had been broken.“Out of bounds!” bellowed the tournament announcer, whom Ryn had landed somewhere near to. “Victory to Huld of Farr! Huld of Farr is the winner!”The crowd exploded with joy.Amidst the muddle of his pain, Ryn saw them climbing and leaping over the wooden barriers that fenced off the arena floor and running onto it. Farrians, men, women and children alike, invading the arena and roaring with triumph and glee. The ones passing Ryn ignored him completely, stepping over him or even knocking into him on the way so that his body protested with fresh pain.Eventually Cid appeared at his side; a friendly, weathered face in the sea of screaming Farrians.“Oh dear,” the old man said. “that looks nasty. Sorry it took me a moment to get to you. I went to Huld first because you burned him so badly, but actually it looks like I should have come to you first…”He lay a hand on the top of his Ryn's throbbing head, spoke the word “Cure-ah,” and relieving warmth spread from the old man's hand into Ryn's head, through his jaw, and down to the rest of his body. His jaw bones clicked back into place and his ribs stopped aching.“Ahhh…” Ryn gasped. “That's better... Thank you, Cid...” He took the old man's hand, who helped him to his feet.“My pleasure,” said Cid, clasping his hand and giving him an affectionate wallop on the back, which would have hurt like hell had Ryn not just been healed. The lines at the corners of his eyes looked particularly pronounced just now. He must be tired from all the healing he had been doing today. “Good effort out there. I'm sorry it didn't work out in the end.”And then it hit Ryn, harder than a stone-fisted uppercut.He had lost.He had lost the Grand Final.He had lost the Grand Final and failed to win the Earth Emerald.He looked over at what was happening to Huld. The invading members of the audience had swarmed around the monk, who was no longer encased in his stone armour, and hoisted him up so that his huge form bobbed up and down atop a sea of hands. He was smiling again.“HULD! HULD! HULD!” the crowd were chanting over and over in celebration.The entire arena was filled with Farrians. More were scrambling to get in to try to touch their new champion, but there was barely any room left inside the fighting square to accommodate them.“What do we do now?” Ryn asked Cid over the noise of the cheering. “How are we going to get the Earth Emerald now?”“I am not entirely sure,” said Cid. “I must admit I did not expect things to turn out this way…” A stab of shame pricked Ryn's guts. “But don't worry, lad. It doesn't matter. There will be a way. The One will show us a way.”As he watched the crowd of Farrians jostling around in the arena and starting to repeatedly launch Huld into the air, Ryn wasn't so sure. Sorrow tugged at his heart. He had let Nuthea down. He had let himself down. He had let everyone down.“ENOUGH!” boomed a voice so loud it shook the sand Ryn stood on.It got the crowd quiet too. As one, they turned to look at who had shouted.The Governor. He was standing on his viewing platform, hands held up for silence again.“While I understand your justified jubilation,” the Governor said loudly, though he didn't need to shout it anymore, “this disorganised display does not become us. All of you, back to the viewing area! Then I shall present Brother Huld with his prize for winning the Grand Final of this tournament.”Slowly, reluctantly, the audience members returned Huld to the ground and began to walk back out of the arena circle, clambering back over the dividing barriers. Apparently they respected the Governor enough to obey him, even in spite of their jubilation at seeing Huld win the Final.Ryn and Cid went and stood at the side of the arena to watch what would happen next. Ryn tried to keep his head down out of view so that people wouldn't see that he had been healed.The Governor descended his platform and a gate in the barrier was opened for him by a monk so that he could walk into the arena, where he went and stood next to Huld.The thick-set man walked around the champion to address the once more patiently watching Farrians from all angles.“Fellow Farrians!” he proclaimed. “What you have witnessed here today is yet another demonstration that—though barbarians and rogues may visit us from over the seas and skies to gaze upon our wonders and challenge our strength—in glory, in might, in power, FARR WILL ALWAYS REIGN SUPREME!”The crowd bellowed its approval, so loud it felt like the earth trembled under Ryn's feet.The Governor turned to the monk at his side. “Brother Huld, Monk of Eto, loyal servant of the Republic of Farr, for your prowess and victory at this Grand Tournament here today, for your defeat of these foreign challengers with their strangest of sorceries, for your impeccable demonstration of the finest fighting arts that Mother Farr has to offer, as prize I now present you with the highest honour I can bestow: The long-lost Earth Emerald of Eto, fabled Jewel of Mid!”The Governor pulled a hand from his robe and thrust it into the air, holding the gleaming green stone aloft. As he did so the arena flared briefly with distant light, which the stone caught with a flash, and a heartbeat later a loud peal of thunder rolled across the sky, like celestial furniture being moved somewhere above the ceiling of cloud cover.Ryn craned his neck upwards. The gathered clouds were thicker and blacker than ever, pregnant with rainstorm.“Congratulations, Brother Huld!” proclaimed the Governor.He handed Huld the stone, and at last the storm broke, and rain burst from the clouds, drenching them in an instantaneous downpour of uncountable water droplets.And with the storm, through the dark clouds, flew a fleet of black, blimp-suspended, sharp-prowed Imperial airships.

In this episode of the Greenside Up Podcast, Jordan and Jason sit down with Zack Farr, third-generation citrus grower, redneck entrepreneur, and co-founder of Biotech Applied Research, for a wild, unfiltered ride from castrating calves to carbon-smart soils. Zack walks through his journey from FSU to Miami sales, back home to struggling citrus groves, into industrial hemp, and ultimately to discovering the power of biochar after a "holy grail" 15' x 15' patch of supercharged soil changed everything. The conversation dives deep into the realities of Florida agriculture, the collapse of citrus, the politics and economics around hemp, and how biochar is being used for tree restoration, mitigation projects, turf and landscape installs, and large-scale soil remediation. Along the way, they swap stories about a high-spec Tampa tree mitigation job that unknowingly used Zack's product, talk practical application methods, ROI, and why biochar might be the "foundation concrete" of healthy soils rather than just another green-industry fad. If you're in trees, turf, landscape, or ag and want a real-world, boots-on-the-ground look at biochar and regenerative practices in Florida, this episode is for you. Connect with Jason and Jordan:

A seemingly ordinary car salesman hides a far darker agenda. Anthony Farr of Little Rock spends hours behind the wheel, driving six long hours across state lines for a meeting he believes will be with a minor. What began as a series of explicit online messages quickly turns into a disturbing journey fueled by anticipation—and intent.  But when Farr finally arrives in Livingston Parish, Louisiana, the person waiting for him isn't who he expects. Chris is there, along with local law enforcement, ready to confront him the moment his carefully planned encounter falls apart.  Chris presses Farr in a revealing interview that exposes the troubling mindset behind predators who travel great distances to act on their fantasies. In this intense episode, the investigation lays bare the premeditation, deception, and dangerous patterns investigators look for—and the critical steps being taken to stop these encounters before a child becomes the victim.  Sponsored by: OneSkin: Get 15% off OneSkin with the code HANSEN at https://www.oneskin.co/HANSEN #oneskinpod  Home Title Lock: Go to https://hometitlelock.com/chrishansen and use promo code HANSEN to get a FREE title history report and a FREE TRIAL of their Triple Lock Protection!

CardioNerds (Dr. Shazli Khan, Dr. Jenna Skowronski, and Dr. Shiva Patlolla) discuss the management of patients post‑heart transplantation with Dr. Shelley Hall from Baylor University Medical Center and Dr. MaryJane Farr from UTSW. In this comprehensive review, we cover the physiology of the transplanted heart, immunosuppression strategies, rejection surveillance, and long-term complications including cardiac allograft vasculopathy (CAV) and malignancy. Audio editing for this episode was performed by CardioNerds intern Dr. Bhavya Shah. Enjoy this Circulation 2022 Paths to Discovery article to learn about the CardioNerds story, mission, and values.

Pearls The Denervated Heart: The donor heart is surgically severed from the autonomic nervous system, leading to a higher resting heart rate (90-110 bpm) due to loss of vagal tone. Because the heart relies on circulating catecholamines rather than neural input to increase heart rate, patients experience a delayed chronotropic response to exercise and stress. Importantly, because afferent pain fibers are severed, ischemia is often painless. Rejection Surveillance: Rejection is classified into Acute Cellular Rejection (ACR), which is T-cell mediated, and Antibody-Mediated Rejection (AMR), which is B-cell mediated. While endomyocardial biopsy remains the gold standard for diagnosis, non-invasive surveillance using gene-expression profiling (e.g., AlloMap) and donor-derived cell-free DNA (dd-cfDNA) is increasingly utilized to reduce the burden of invasive procedures. The Infection Timeline: The risk of infection follows a predictable timeline based on the intensity of immunosuppression. The first month is dominated by nosocomial infections. Months one through six are the peak for opportunistic infections (Cytomegalovirus, Pneumocystis, Toxoplasmosis) requiring prophylaxis. After six months, patients are primarily at risk for community-acquired pathogens, though late viral reactivation can occur. Cardiac Allograft Vasculopathy (CAV): Unlike native coronary artery disease, CAV presents as diffuse, concentric intimal thickening that affects the entire length of the vessel, including the microvasculature. Due to denervation, patients rarely present with angina; instead, CAV manifests as unexplained heart failure, fatigue, or sudden cardiac death. Malignancy Risk: Long-term immunosuppression significantly increases the risk of malignancy. Skin cancers (squamous and basal cell) are the most common, followed by Post-Transplant Lymphoproliferative Disorder (PTLD), which is often driven by Epstein-Barr Virus (EBV) reactivation. Notes Notes: Notes drafted by Dr. Patlolla 1. What are the unique physiological features of the transplanted heart? The hallmark of the transplanted heart is denervation. Because the autonomic nerve fibers are severed during harvest, the heart loses parasympathetic or vagal tone, resulting in a resting tachycardia (typically 90-110 bpm). The heart also loses the ability to mount a reflex tachycardia; thus, the heart rate response to exercise or hypovolemia relies on circulating catecholamines, which results in a slower “warm-up” and “cool-down” period during exertion. 2. What are the pillars of maintenance immunosuppression regimen? The triple drug maintenance regimen typically consists of: Calcineurin Inhibitor (CNI): Tacrolimus is preferred over cyclosporine. Key side effects include nephrotoxicity, hypertension, tremor, hyperkalemia, and hypomagnesemia. Antimetabolite: Mycophenolate mofetil (MMF) inhibits lymphocyte proliferation. Key side effects include leukopenia and GI distress. Corticosteroids: Prednisone is used for maintenance but is often weaned to low doses or discontinued after the first year to mitigate metabolic side effects (diabetes, osteoporosis, weight gain). 3. How is rejection classified and diagnosed? Rejection is the immune system’s response to the foreign graft and is categorized by the arm of the immune system involved: Acute Cellular Rejection (ACR): Mediated by T-lymphocytes infiltrating the myocardium. It is graded from 1R (mild) to 3R (severe) based on the extent of infiltration and myocyte damage. Antibody-Mediated Rejection (AMR): Mediated by B-cells producing donor-specific antibodies (DSAs) that attack the graft endothelium. It is diagnosed via histology (capillary swelling) and immunofluorescence (C4d staining). Diagnosis has historically relied on endomyocardial biopsy. However, non-invasive tools are gaining traction. Gene Expression Profiling (GEP) assesses the expression of genes associated with immune activation to rule out rejection in low-risk patients. Donor-Derived Cell-Free DNA (dd-cfDNA) measures the fraction of donor DNA in the recipient’s blood. Elevated levels suggest graft injury which can occur in both ACR and AMR. 4. What is the timeline of infectious risk and how does it guide prophylaxis? Infectious risk correlates with the net state of immunosuppression. < 1 Month (Nosocomial): Risks include surgical site infections, catheter-associated infections, and aspiration pneumonia. 1 – 6 Months (Opportunistic): This is the period of peak immunosuppression. Patients are at risk for PJP, CMV, Toxoplasma, and fungal infections. Prophylaxis typically includes Trimethoprim-Sulfamethoxazole (for PJP/Toxo) and Valganciclovir (for CMV, dependent on donor/recipient serostatus). > 6 Months (Community-Acquired): As immunosuppression is weaned, the risk profile shifts toward community-acquired respiratory viruses (Influenza, RSV) and pneumonias. However, patients with recurrent rejection requiring boosted immunosuppression remain at risk for opportunistic pathogens. 5. How does Cardiac Allograft Vasculopathy (CAV) differ from native CAD? CAV is the leading cause of late graft failure. Unlike the focal, eccentric plaques seen in native atherosclerosis, CAV is an immunologically driven process causing diffuse, concentric intimal hyperplasia. It affects both epicardial vessels and the microvasculature. Because of this diffuse nature, percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) is often technically difficult and provides only temporary palliation. The only definitive treatment for severe CAV is re-transplantation. Surveillance is critical and is typically performed via annual coronary angiography, often using intravascular ultrasound (IVUS) to detect early intimal thickening before it is visible on the angiogram.

Joined by Madison Farr, Damon and Damo sit down for a wide-ranging conversation on accountability, leadership, and the lasting effects of how Sailors are treated after mistakes. The episode opens with a brief check-in and an apology for a previous error before Madison shares her experiences in the Navy, including two separate Masts and a tragic incident that shaped how she viewed discipline, leadership, and her own career. The discussion covers fraternization, issues with her LPO, and the idea of not letting getting in trouble define you, along with what accountability should look like after NJP. Damon, Damo, and Madison talk through leadership responsibilities, the difference between consequences and abandonment, and what it means to do right by your people. Lighter moments include early Navy misadventures, her first time checking into a command, and reflections on the good moments from her time in uniform. The conversation also touches on warfare pin restrictions, Madison's current work at MEPS, and what she sees from the other side of the accession process. In the Do Better segment, the guys discuss installation safety, matching energy, navigating transition, and the need for leadership to be less judgmental. The episode closes with Madison grading the Chiefs' Mess, sharing her perspective on DRBs, weighing in on The Rip and Sinners and its record-breaking nominations, and offering feedback on what leaders can do better.

Many medical trainees are driven to medicine by their moral or religious principles — only to find that they are expected to check their principles at the patient's door. When this happens, physicians and patients may lose the opportunity for deeper, more healing relationships.Our guest on this episode is Dr. Farr Curlin, a hospitalist and palliative care physician at Duke University School of Medicine. Dr. Curlin holds joint appointments in the Trent Center for Bioethics, Humanities & History of Medicine and Duke Divinity School, where he studies the intersection of medicine, ethics, and religion. From a young age, Dr. Curlin was intrigued by the moral dimensions of medicine. As a medical trainee, he began to study how the religious backgrounds of physicians inform their practice. He is the co-author of The Way of Medicine, in which he challenges the modern “provider of services” model and calls for a recovery of medicine's spiritual foundations as a healing profession. Now, at Duke Divinity School, he spends significant time helping physicians re-center their practice around the question: “What is Good?” Over the course of our conversation, we discuss attitudes toward religion in the medical profession and how many medical professionals worry that being openly religious may make them seem retrograde — or worse. We explore striking the balance between offering physician wisdom while respecting patient autonomy, consider whether the project of medicine makes sense when viewed through the lens of secular humanism, and reflect on how the physician attributes of humility and respect enable physicians to productively bring their full selves to the bedside, all while practicing medicine within a morally pluralistic society.In this episode, you'll hear about: 2:48 - Dr. Curlin's path to medicine and what drew him to a career at the intersection of religion and medicine 19:30 - Dr. Curlin's thoughts on why doctors often feel they cannot be openly religious35:45 - How Dr. Curlin would change medical training to create a deeper focus on personal commitments and moral conviction 41:15 - Exploring the limitations of artificial agnosticism at the patient's bedside51:50 - How fostering a spiritual connection to the work of healing can mitigate burnoutVisit our website www.TheDoctorsArt.com where you can find transcripts of all episodes.If you enjoyed this episode, please subscribe, rate, and review our show, available for free on Spotify, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcasts.
