Can you do better than Ed in today's edition of the Two Grand Slam?

Tony and Fingers pour Mayor Pingree Small Batch Red Label Bourbon from Valentine Distilling in Ferndale, Michigan — a 94-proof bourbon that blends Valentine's triple pot-distilled bourbon with traditional column-distilled bourbon casks from Lawrenceburg, Indiana. They get notes of vanilla, oak, honey, bread, pepper, citrus, and a little orchard fruit — then find that a cube or a little water brings the bourbon together nicely. Also on this Happy Hour: Jack Daniel's reportedly saying no to a massive Brown-Forman offer, why Malört keeps showing up in people's feeds, St. Elmo's shrimp cocktail, hot wings, blue cheese vs. ranch, cigar note-taking, Fingers' deeply troubling food diary, the cars thieves love most, Byron Allen buying BuzzFeed, older trucks, Chevy Avalanches, and why Defiance Beef may be the better place to spend your money. Find everything at EatDrinkSmokeShow.com.

This week, Tony and Fingers review the K by Karen Berger Connecticut Toro, a silky Ecuadorian Connecticut with Nicaraguan binder and filler. Connecticut cigars get dismissed too easily, and this one makes the case for why that is a mistake. The Karen Berger Connecticut brings creaminess, cedar, a touch of white pepper, some sweetness, and an easygoing profile that works in the morning, at night, with coffee, or whenever you feel like smoking a Connecticut because you are an adult and can live your life. They also review Mayor Pingree Red Label Bourbon from Valentine Distilling in Ferndale, Michigan. It is a 94-proof bourbon that brings vanilla, oak, honey, spice, pepper, and a little orchard fruit — especially after adding water or putting it over a cube. Also discussed: the best way to reheat pizza, using leftover pizza toppings in an omelet, Tony's toaster paranoia, Subway closing hundreds of locations, Eric Clapton ending a concert early after being hit by a thrown record, whether Malört should be reviewed on the show, the strange human desire to eat painfully hot wings, and which cars thieves love to steal.

KGMI's Adam Smith and Dianna Hawryluk chat about Mother's Day events in Whatcom and Skagit County, the Hovander Plant sale, and live music in Bellingham and Ferndale.

KGMI's Jason Upton talks to BlueBridge Alliance CEO Brian Spracklen about a new program the organization is helping to launch in partnership with Ferndale Police where officers can offer financial assistance to community members in need of short-term help.

In this episode, Aimee sits down with Clare, a mother of three and reproductive rights advocate to discuss her experience with termination for medical reasons (TFMR). Clare shares how a complex twin pregnancy led to a heartbreaking decision and explains why she feels it is vital to share her story openly. She discusses the complex reality of a reproductive journey that spans over a decade, beginning with a deeply personal choice at seventeen and leading to a heartbreaking diagnosis during a wanted pregnancy years later. After a routine scan revealed severe medical anomalies in the surviving fetus of a twin pregnancy, Clare was thrust into a period of uncertainty. By sharing her journey, Clare challenges the binary view of abortion, placing all reproductive choices on a single spectrum of loss and love. Her story is a powerful reminder that putting a name to these experiences turns abstract ideas into human realities. More about Clare Molnar: Clare Molnar is an advocate for abortion access and destigmatization based in Ferndale, MI.

Ferndale is bucking the trend. While most of Detroit's inner-ring suburbs are losing people, Ferndale has grown 1.3% since 2020 — outpacing every municipality that touches Detroit's city limits.  We dig into new population data highlighted by the Detroit Free Press and ask what makes Ferndale different: walkable neighborhoods, a real downtown at Woodward and Nine Mile, a strong LGBTQ community, and a place where people say they feel safe because neighbors have their back.  Here's a link to the piece we discussed: https://www.freep.com/story/news/local/michigan/detroit/2026/04/28/ferndale-is-growing-while-detroits-other-inner-ring-suburbs-shrink/89644896007/ We contrast Ferndale's urbanist-friendly density and sense of belonging with the population losses in places like Warren, Redford, Dearborn Heights, and River Rouge, and talk about how Gen Z, dual-income-no-kids households, and the Woodward corridor are reshaping where Metro Detroiters choose to live. 

Education, connection, and community are at the heart  of our CF community. On Saturday, April 18th from 11:00 a.m. to 1:30 p.m. we gathered at the Next Step Gallery in Ferndale. Set in a bright gallery space surrounded by art, the event offered a welcoming environment for meaningful conversation, learning, and connection. It was pure joy with the smell of great food in the air. Food from my sister in laws restaurant, Bangkok Cuisine (in Royal Oak) filled the air, it smelled amazing and filled the air. Education Day is more than a traditional event. It's an opportunity for people living with cystic fibrosis, parents, caregivers, healthcare professionals, and advocates to gather in one space to share experiences and support one another. A highlight of the afternoon was our “live” podcast recording, offering attendees a chance to hear authentic conversations about life with cystic fibrosis, advocacy, and the challenges and hopes shaping the community today. We all talked about education, advocacy, and what lies ahead for the CF community. The relaxed setting allowed people to connect not just through information, but through shared experiences. Events like Education Day help strengthen the bonds within the CF community by reminding everyone that they are not alone in their journey. Whether you are living with CF, raising a child with the disease, working in healthcare, or supporting someone you love, this gathering is meant to inform, inspire, and bring people together. Every story matters. Every voice matters. And every person who attends becomes part of the conversation.

The war with Iran and the return of John from Ferndale...

KGMI's Adam Smith and Dianna Hawryluk chat about the Bellingham Children's Film Festival, the Whatcom Wedding Showcase in Ferndale, the Honeywagon Runs in Everson, and live music in Bellingham.

KGMI's Jason Upton talks with Whatcom County Facilities Manager Rob Ney about the county's decision to switch the location of the new jail from LaBounty Drive in Ferndale to Hannegan Road in Bellingham.

iIt's not just college basketball Madness – the bracket busters extend into the halls of Congress where two of Donald Trump's legion of incompetents got busted over the administration's war on Iran … and on the American people.  Michigan's two Senators took part in the Homeland Security Committee's grilling of onetime MMA fighter and plumber Markwayne Mullin who is set to inherit Kristi Noem's office … presumably minus any romancing with Corey Lewandowski. Elissa Slotkin tried to get a commitment that ICE agents won't be showing up at voting precincts in November … with a response that wasn't exactly reassuring. Gary Peters reminded Mullin that it's Republicans who are voting against getting paychecks for TSA employees at airports. Peters re-emphasized what he said on last week's episode of this podcast about the growing mess at airports. Also on our poli-radar this week The Trump grift-and-grab family found another opportunity for personal enrichment. Jared Kushner, the not-a-government-employee who is taking the lead on Middle East negotiations, is simultaneously soliciting $5-billion from Middle East potentates in the form of investments in the Kushner wealth management company. In Michigan, state House Speaker MAGA Matt Hall is taking a page out of the Donald Trump Ego-Massage Manual, bragging about winning an apparently fictitious award for government transparency. The problem with the organization honoring Hall? It apparently doesn't exist. State Democrats responded by offering Hall with the equally bogus SAD Award, or Speaker's Asinine Decision Award. Oakland County hosted Vice President James Donald Bowman – or is it James David Hamel? Or is he sticking with J.D. Vance? Whatever he calls himself, the self-proclaimed Appalachian Hillbilly checked in to tell Michiganders “don't believe your eyes and ears: the economy is really just peachy.” The Jeff Epstein web of debauchery threatens to tarnish Michigan's famed Interlochen Center for the Arts, with state Democrats calling for an investigation into what they described as disturbing connections between Epstein, his associate Ghislaine Maxwell and the northern Michigan arts institution.  Donald Trump says a former living President privately supported the Middle East War and wishes he had done it, with all four former living Presidents denying that they've even talked with Trump about the war. But … we haven't heard denials yet from President Jeb Bartlet or President Frank Underwood, or the ghost of the late great Abraham Lincoln. Michigan is a national political center of attention. Governor, U.S. Senator, Secretary of State, Attorney General, the entire congressional delegation and the entire legislature are all on the ballot in November. Covering all of this is Bridge Michigan's outstanding political reporter Lauren Gibbons. Lauren covers state politics and policy for Bridge Michigan. Prior to joining Bridge’s Capitol team, she worked at MLive, where she led coverage of the state Legislature and the redistricting process, and before that covered the state Senate for MIRS News.  She has covered the ins and outs of Michigan politics for nearly a decade and has won awards both for her political coverage and her work documenting the Larry Nassar sexual abuse case. Lauren grew up in the Lansing area and graduated from Michigan State University, majoring in journalism and history. She lives in Ferndale, and her party tricks include Irish dancing and telling friends what political districts they live in without looking. We’re now on YouTube every week! Click here to subscribe.

Detroit's favorite hyperlocal holiday meets peak cozy season in this Daily Detroit conversation between Jer and Mr. Friday himself, Devon O'Reilly. Recorded for 313 Day, we dig into how to truly "do something Detroit" – from Belle Isle memories to where to spend your time and money in the city right now.​ We start with the reopening of the Belle Isle Casino as a public event space, swapping stories about hot dogs, model boats, and why "casino" never meant hitting the slots on the island. Then it's on to St. Patrick's Day strategy: the Corktown parade, why "Saint Practice Day" is ridiculous, and Devon's must-have drink list; plus how to make easy, affordable Irish comfort food like corned beef in the slow cooker, shepherd's pie, and stout-heavy stew.​ Foodwise, we get into the cheap and cheerful $10 New York-style halal plate at Halal Desi in Hamtramck as a true "port in the storm," while Devon goes all-in on a special-occasion splurge at Prime + Proper – and wrestles with whether ultra-pricey steaks are really worth it in a world of diminishing returns.  They also talk oysters, Voyager in Ferndale, and mre.​ The episode wraps on "cozy" vibes, from the closure of Caribou Coffee's drive-through-only locations to the rise of Lucky Coffee and making better coffee at home, plus plans for 313 Day trivia and maybe even a future Hazen Pingree birthday party? The Rundown: 01:25 - Happy 313 Day and St. Patrick's Day talk 11:38 - Where we've been cheap and cheerful and super swanky 11:51 - Halal Desi NY Gyro 13:20 - Devon went to Prime and Proper 18:26 - Caribou Coffee closing in Allen Park and Ferndale

Welcome back! Jer and Devon are highlighting places we've been and stories around Metro Detroit... 01:29 - Checker Bar in downtown Detroit is back! 03:14 - Devon is a fan of Mint 29 in Dearborn 04:59 - Remembering long gone Dearborn establishments like Dearborn Music, Wonderland Music, and Hewitt's 08:26 - Devon's obsessed with his Ninja Luxe coffee machine. What local roaster beans should he get?  12:36 - Bonus where we've been: Dessert Oasis in Ferndale 14:24 - Michigan is suing Kalshi to keep their sports product out. Is it gambling like the AG says? We discuss our opinions 20:35 - Should first floor offices be allowed in downtowns? Northville may ban them.

Ferndale Pride isn't just a single day in May. It's a months-long celebration of joym community, and giving back that has its roots in a meeting at Soho 16 years ago. In this episode, I talk with Ferndale Pride executive director and longtime listener Julia Music about how the festival started, why it has always been free to attend, and how it has already given more than $500,000 to charity while centering downtown Ferndale businesses.​ Julia walks us through what to expect on May 30 in downtown Ferndale: three stages, Reading with Royalty, 220 vendors, nine food trucks, and a footprint stretching along 9 Mile from Woodward to Livernois. But before the big day, there's a full calendar of events designed to both build community and raise the funds needed to keep Pride accessible.​ You'll hear about the Small Packages cigar-box art auction at Detroit GT Studios, Soho Leather Weekend, Junk Jewels' allergy-friendly treats at Urbanrest, and the "Out of the Closet and Onto the Dance Floor" party that invites you to finally wear that wild outfit hiding in the back of your closet. We also dig into Hot Daddies, the Cougar Hunt (a true "coalition of cougars"), Pistons Pride Night, a psychic self-care evening at Boston Tea Room, and the always-popular Pokémon trivia night at B. Nektar. More: https://ferndalepride.com/ Feedback as always, dailydetroit - at - gmail - dot - com or leave a voicemail, 313-789-3211.

Generally speaking, there's some correlation between brewery scale and lager quality, and while there are plenty of exceptions to every rule, there's no denying that honing lager beers into the best versions of themselves requires repetition, time, and access to the best ingredients. But over the past few years, an ever-increasing number of very small craft brewers have found success in the major competitions not despite their size, but because of it. Ferndale, Michigan's Urbanrest firmly sits in that group, and their recent gold medal in the American Pilsner category at GABF is further proof that careful process and thoughtful beer design aren't dependent on scale. The beer itself, Kaiser, started as a Franconian-inspired kellerpils, but over the years has morphed into what they now call American pils. And funny enough, it contains only Vienna-style malt from small craft maltster and none of the pils malt that most would expect. But that's not the only way they've strayed from the classic narrative. In this episode, founder and brewer Zach Typinski discusses how they: ferment German lager with a dry 34/70 strain while fermenting American pils with a liquid 34/70 blend various base malts in both lager and IPA find the perfect amount of “rusticity” in American pils manage direct-fire kettle caramelization in lieu of decoction krausen lagered beer for carbonation since the brewery doesn't own a carb stone build texture and retain foam through the krausening process source and contract great hops despite their small size And more. G&D Chillers G&D's biggest edge isn't just the equipment—it's their deep understanding of brewery operations. From layout to production flow, they bring real-world expertise and build reliable systems that last, whether it's a single-stage 5H or a Vertical Air Chiller. New Belgium Brewing recently partnered with G&D to install a propane-based Elite 290 chiller —delivering around 50% energy savings compared to CO₂ systems. As Andy Collins, New Belgium's Carbon Neutral Engineer, put it: “We're really happy to work with a partner like G&D Chillers who helped us significantly reduce the amount of HFCs used in our refrigeration systems.” With 24/7 support and remote monitoring, your cold side stays dialed in—day or night. See how leading breweries are cutting energy costs at gdchillers.com. Berkeley Yeast Berkeley Yeast just launched Dry Tropics London! Our best-selling liquid yeast strain, now with all the ease-of-use benefits of dry yeast. Dry Tropics London delivers the soft, pillowy mouthfeel and juicy character you'd expect from a top-tier London Ale strain, but with a serious upgrade: a burst of thiols that unleash vibrant, layered notes of grapefruit and passion fruit. A lot of brewers love the clean passion fruit you get from Tropics, but they don't want every IPA to be a tropical-fruit bomb. At the dry yeast price point, you can pitch and ditch without breaking the bank. Or, you can co-pitch with your house strain to adjust the intensity of the notes. And with nationwide free shipping, there's never been a better time to try Dry Tropics. Order now at berkeleyyeast.com and experience the ease and impact of Dry Tropics London Yeast.

Coming to you from the studio at TechTown after a long weekend, today's show is all about what's happening in Detroit's food and drink world — the good, the bad, and the "wait, that closed already?" I'm joined by our engineer of both audio and alcohol, Randy Walker, to dig into some big changes at longtime favorites, why some promising spots didn't make it, and where you should actually spend your money right now. We'll talk rum bars, laptop bans at coffee shops, the future of the Ren Cen, and Randy's first impressions of Medusa in Midtown. The topics: Hygrade Deli in Southwest Detroit is in receivership after loan defaults and building issues, putting the longtime corned beef spot's future in doubt.​ We unpack why some well-regarded restaurants like Carajillo in Ferndale close within a year, from price perception to competition and capital.​ Randy talks about how Port in Ferndale shifted from laid-back rum haven to trendier, simpler drinks and how that changed the vibe.... plus where serious rum fans should go now, from Tocororo to Mutiny, and tease a future Daily Detroit happy hour.​ A new Pizza Cat on East Jefferson shows promise for downtown lunches even as the surrounding Jefferson/Ren Cen area struggles.​ We preview Burns Night with Acroyd Scottish Bakery at Urbanrest, complete with haggis, neeps and tatties, bagpipers, and the "stabbing of the haggis."​ Are you for or against laptops at coffeeshops? Roost Detroit's no-laptop policy sparks a bigger conversation about coffee shop etiquette, remote work, and who these spaces are really for.​ We had a "last lunch" at the Ren Cen Burger King and reflect on the eerie, post-pandemic decline of the complex, and how demolishing two Ren Cen towers and opening the site to the riverfront could match reality better than nostalgia.​ And finally, Randy gives a first-look review of Medusa in Midtown, from standout lamb and cocktails to price point, vibe, and whether it's worth a special night out.​ Feedback as always - dailydetroit -at- gmail -dot- com or leave a voicemail 313-789-3211.

Dare Mighty Things: A Journey from the Potato Fields to a Ph.D by William E Liverman https://www.amazon.com/Dare-Mighty-Things-Journey-Potato/dp/B0FMMWB9Y8 Dr. Liverman’s book, A Journey From the Potato Fields to a PhD, is a story about Dr. William Liverman, who by God’s grace overcame insurmountable odds to achieve outstanding results in his journey to success. Dr. Liverman’s journey began in the Jim Crow South, where he and his seven siblings were miraculously rescued from a devastating fire that reduced their home to ashes on a frigid winter night in Weeksville, North Carolina. All that Dr. Liverman, his mother, and siblings had left were the clothes on their backs. Dr. Liverman has a bachelor’s degree in chemistry from Elizabeth City State University, a master’s in the art of teaching from Marygrove College, and a Doctor of Education, specializing in teacher leadership, from Walden University. Although Dr. Liverman’s mother did not finish high school, she was determined that her eight children would complete college. As a result, all of them have earned graduate and postgraduate degrees. Dr. Liverman retired from teaching in June 2024, concluding a fifty-year career (twenty-five years in sales and marketing, and twenty-five years in teaching). He is an award-winning speaker with Toastmasters International. Dr. Liverman earned the prestigious Distinguished Toastmaster (DTM) award in February 2019, which is the highest honor in public speaking and leadership. Dr. Liverman was elected to serve on the State of Michigan Foster Care Review Board. The mission of the review board is to utilize citizen volunteers to review and evaluate permanency planning outcomes for families in the Michigan foster care system. Dr. Liverman has served in ministry for over fifty years and is presently on the executive board at his local church in Ferndale, Michigan. Dr. Liverman and his wife, Karen, reside in Southfield, Michigan. They are the proud parents of ten children, seven of whom were adopted. Dr. and Mrs. Liverman recently celebrated their forty-ninth wedding anniversary.

Hello to you listening in Ferndale, Washington!Coming to you from Whidbey Island, Washington this is Stories From Women Who Walk with 60 Seconds for Wednesdays on Whidbey and your host, Diane Wyzga.Earlier in life I had tendencies toward behaving like a spring-butt. You know the type. The over-eager know-it-all with her hand in the air. Teacher! Teacher! I know! I know! Think Hermione Granger in the early years of Harry Potter.  Over time I learned to take to heart what my mother always said: “Just because you thought of something, Diane, doesn't mean you have to say it.” I can still hear her voice as mom continues to pull me back from “I know! I know!”  Practical Tip: Prompted by Jim Burke in a recent BizCatalyst 360 Friendship Bench discussion, I offer 3 questions that might have the same effect on you that mom's voice has on me:Does it need to be said?Does it need to be said now?Does it need to be said by me?  I know. I know ..... You're invited: “Come for the stories - stay for the magic!” Speaking of magic, I hope you'll subscribe, follow, share a 5-star rating and nice review on your social media or podcast channel of choice, and join us next time!

KGMI's Adam Smith talks about the Lighted Boat Parade in Bellingham, the Northwest Lighted Christmas Parade in Lynden, the Olde Fashioned Christmas in Ferndale, Arts and Ales at Aslan Brewing, Winter BrewFest 2025 at Squalicum Harbor, and a benefit show at Shakedown.

Another episode, another seminal album from the era, and we're over a hundred episodes in. This time Dustin Lince has returned to talk all about Fugazi and their monumentally influential 1993 album In On The Killtaker. Dustin and Travis also talk about their event called Hunger Strike on Saturday, December 13th at the New Way Bar in Ferndale, Michigan.

Jeffrey Mosher welcomes Mike Musheinesh, CEO, Detroit Axel, Detroit, MI. Mike, you've described the 2025 tariff rollout as a shock to Michigan's business community. Can you walk us through how the sudden policy changes first hit Detroit Axle and the broader automotive aftermarket? Detroit Axle has taken the rare step of filing a federal court challenge against the tariffs. What led you to pursue legal action, and what outcome are you hoping the case will set for Michigan businesses? You've emphasized that despite the disruptions, Detroit Axle has preserved jobs and remained open for business. How were you able to adapt and stay stable while other companies struggled or closed? What are the real-world impacts you're seeing for customers, now that tariffs have driven up prices for essential auto parts? You've called on the Michigan Economic Development Corporation to rethink its approach to supporting established businesses. What specific changes would you like to see at MEDC to ensure homegrown companies can compete and grow? Detroit Axle had plans for a 350,000-square-foot expansion in Ferndale that are now on hold. Can you explain how the tariffs forced that pause and how the company is adjusting its growth strategy in global markets? As you await clarity on global trade policy, what message do you want to send to policymakers about the stakes for Michigan's economy and immigrant-founded companies like Detroit Axle? » Visit MBN website: www.michiganbusinessnetwork.com/ » Subscribe to MBN's YouTube: www.youtube.com/@MichiganbusinessnetworkMBN » Like MBN: www.facebook.com/mibiznetwork » Follow MBN: twitter.com/MIBizNetwork/ » MBN Instagram: www.instagram.com/mibiznetwork/

More quiz fun with Nathan in Ferndale and Fiona in Staplehurst.

On this pre-Thanksgiving episode of Daily Detroit, Norris Howard and I come to you in our Sunday sport-coated best fresh from a heavyweight fireside chat with Detroit's outgoing Mayor Mike Duggan and Rocket's Dan Gilbert. We react to a conversation that's a look into the future of Detroit and Michigan from two people shaping where we're headed next. We break down the biggest takeaways from the discussion, including why housing affordability tops Duggan's agenda as he runs for governor (as an independent) and why zoning reform and building more duplexes, triplexes, and other smaller-scale multi-family housing are absolutely crucial for Detroit. We get into the realities of market demand, population shifts, and why transit is still the other half of Detroit's comeback equation. Because whether it's chicken or egg, you need both people and transit to revitalize a city. Beyond the political stage, Norris and I swap thoughts on how local development impacts long-standing communities, and why the land value tax push in Lansing was such a key piece of the mayor's agenda. Then, we switch gears for a rapid-fire rundown of where to shop, eat, and support local business for Small Business Saturday across Southeast Michigan, from Merry in Midtown to the Rust Belt in Ferndale. Plus, some of our holiday traditions, why you shouldn't ring the bell at the Two Way Inn unless you're feeling extra generous, and why supporting our local spots matters more than ever.

Feds: Suspects in Ferndale terror case also cased Cedar Point; one is tied to video game lawsuit Veterans Day 2025 free offers and discounts at restaurants in metro Detroit and beyond

Michigan terrorism suspects were plotting to attack Ferndale, feds say Scammer asks Michigan senior if he received his 'new' Medicare card: What happened next

Tune in to today's explosive edition of Joe Untamed, where we dive into the chaos tearing at America's fabric—from radical gender insanity invading women's safe spaces to jihadist plots thwarted just in time to save Halloween bloodshed. A California Gold's Gym mom gets blacklisted for daring to protest a man lurking in the women's locker room, exposing the trans agenda's war on privacy and sanity. But the real nightmare? In Dearborn, Michigan—ground zero for open-border fallout—FBI heroes under Kash Patel's watch dismantle an ISIS-wannabe "pumpkin" massacre targeting Ferndale's LGBT scene, with young Muslim plotters stockpiling AR-15s and plotting a Paris-style slaughter. How many more near-misses before we seal the borders and deport the threats? Plus, Chicago's invading hordes form a "union" to dodge rent and ICE—entitled squatters demanding handouts while real Americans foot the bill. And don't miss Mark Levin's fiery RJC rant, baying to "cancel and deplatform" right-wing truth-tellers like Tucker Carlson over Israel critiques—why fracture MAGA when unity is our superpower?Buckle up for a no-holds-barred showdown with geopolitical powerhouse Halsey English, the Substack sensation and Patreon insider who's decoding the shadows sabotaging Trump's triumph. From deep-state burrows in State and Defense leaking poison to divide his cabinet. Is the ultimate divide-and-conquer, baiting us into forever wars while real nationalists get branded traitors? Halsey's raw takes on institutional resistance, globalist vs. nationalist clashes, and purging the infiltrators will arm you to protect the movement before it's too late.We pivot to a gut-wrenching global wake-up call: the genocide unfolding in Nigeria, where 7,000+ Christians slaughtered this year alone by Boko Haram butchers—raped, beheaded, buried in mass graves—while woke influencers and MSM stay criminally silent. Trump's Truth Social thunderclap demands justice, echoing Bill Maher's roast of media cover-ups and a chilling montage of moms with babies beaten bloody. Pastors plead for intervention as caskets stack like cordwood—62,000 dead since 2000—and the Pentagon drops a stark warning to these faith-killers. Then, in our fiery reaction block, we unleash the ultimate taxpayer revolt: a blistering Fax Blast to Congress exposing Democrats' SNAP scam, where illegals gorge on $2.4M fraud rings and 59% welfare abuse via anchor babies, surging costs 40% under Biden's border betrayal. Demand the SNAP Integrity Act now—strip benefits from invaders, enforce work rules, and prosecute the grifters—or watch America starve while sanctuary scum feast. This is your battle cry—join the fight, fax your reps, and reclaim our nation before the swamp swallows us whole!

Lots of work to do—lets get to it—Here are 3 big things for this hour—   Number One— Back in the saddle! And ready to roll! I will share some stories of the long weekend—we spent that time in Charleston South Carolina—and what an adventure it was—   Number Two— While I was away the FBI brought down a planned terrorist attack that would have targeted the LGBTQ community in Ferndale—not far from Detroit—now two Michigan men are in jail on multiple charges—   Number Three— Today is not just another Election Day—it's D-Day for the soul of America. I'm talking about the fight for our very way of life, the battle against the creeping rot that's turning our shining cities on a hill into godforsaken socialist city-states. 

11-4-25 Tonight we're talking with Bill Bellair, founder of the Michigan Mead Coalition. We're going to talk about mead in competition. Bill Bellair began his mead-making journey in 2008 when his mother expressed interest in trying tej, a traditional Ethiopian honey wine, which was unavailable locally. His early attempts—while not without the occasional "bottle bomb"—yielded surprisingly delicious results. Following this, Bill turned his attention to beer brewing, and it would be several years before he returned to crafting mead. During this time, he joined the Metro Enologist 'n' Zymurgist (MENZ) club, where he expanded his skills in winemaking. This experience gave him valuable insight into the mistakes he had made in his early mead-making efforts, reigniting his passion for the craft. This marked the beginning of a dedicated era of mead production that continues to this day. In 2019, Bill founded the Michigan Mead Coalition, the state's largest mead-exclusive organization. The coalition has fostered a thriving community of skilled brewers, many of whom have earned prestigious awards and even pursued the coveted title of Mead Maker of the Year.

Send us a textNorthern California, this stretch sand, rocks, logging roads, wineries, tiny towns and pulsing centers of culture are one of my happy places. Often when I travel here to visit family, I fly into Santa Rosa, a quaint airport that feels like a time capsule, with touches of Peanuts' cartoonist, Charles Schultz everywhere. Fog-nipped mornings, the sound of a distant train, a winding stretch of trees, shoulders of highway that drop off a rocky incline, this is a place best enjoyed like a glass of fine wine, one intentional sip at a time.From a lost bit of coastline to a community that has its own dialect that's about to go extinct, which might not be a bad thing, there's lots to learn about and love in Northern California.Let's get into it!This episode covers The Lost Coast, B.
