Briana Boyd with 50501 Georgia joined me just as word was breaking that the city of Atlanta had granted the organization's permit to march this Saturday for the second nationwide network of 'No Kings Day' rallies. Hear - from her perspective - what was causing such a fuss and trepidation on the city's part.------The New Georgia Project and its associated PAC are no more, as word broke this morning. Fret not, however; there are other voter registration organizations in the state ready to step up. They include Fair Count, GLAHR Action Network and We Vote We Win. ------Trump's latest bluster, targeting FIFA World Cup host U.S. cities with a claim he could pull games from Boston, Santa Clara (he means San Francisco but the fool isn't aware the stadium is 45 minutes from the city in Santa Clara) and Seattle, has no relevance to Atlanta and Georgia ... or so you'd think. While we're in a state with a GOP governor (though one he isn't fond of), what happens if a Democrat wins the office in 2026 with the 2028 Super Bowl slated for February here? Also, how's it help blue cities in blue states meet his demands to combat crime (already lower than in his first term) if he's pulling terrorism funding from those same states? ------Lastly, time to stop calling those "young" Republicans exposed for their Telegram chatter "young;" they're all adults in their mid-20s or older. That doesn't make them "mature," but it sure doesn't make them "kids," either.

When passion meets purpose, branding magic happens, and Leandro Petersen knows it better than most. As Chief Commercial & Marketing Officer for the Argentine Football Association (AFA), he's helping turn Argentina's fútbol legacy into a global brand phenomenon. In this special bilingual episode, Petersen joins Steve Rosa and Michelle Spriegel to talk about building one of the most recognizable brands in sport — from global partnerships and new markets to the storytelling and strategy that keep Argentina's fútbol heartbeat strong. In Argentina, fútbol more than a sport, it's almost part of their national DNA. And at the center of it all is the Argentine Football Association (AFA), where Petersen leads the charge in transforming that cultural heartbeat into a global business powerhouse. From Lionel Messi's worldwide influence to AFA's expansion across markets like China, India and the U.S., Petersen shares how strategy, storytelling and pure passion are driving Argentina's global rise. The conversation dives into how AFA plans for their new high-performance center in Miami, and what it takes to keep the magic alive both on and off the pitch. Looking ahead, Petersen has his eyes set on FIFA World Cup 2026, which will be hosted across the United States, Mexico, and Canada. With soccer's popularity surging in North America, he sees a massive opportunity to grow AFA's reach during the tournament. From brand activations to fan engagement initiatives, Petersen's focus is on making Argentina not just the team to watch, but the experience to feel throughout the summer of 2026. At its heart, this conversation is about how passion, heritage and purpose can transform a team into a timeless global brand. Argentina's story is proof that when emotion meets execution, the result isn't just victory, it's legacy. Have an idea for a guest? Reach out at brandslam@addventures.com.

Civil rights champion Andrew Young has held many positions, including a U.S. congressman, ambassador, and Atlanta Mayor. He was also a top aide to Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. His life’s story, in his own words, is the focus of a new documentary. It’s called “Andrew Young: The Dirty Work.” Ahead of the film’s debut on MSNBC this Friday, October 17, Rachel Maddow, an Emmy-winning MSNBC host and author, who served as the executive producer of the documentary, reflects on Young’s legacy, his life’s work of championing civil rights and her process in documenting his story through film. Plus, post-pandemic, MARTA, as well as many other transit systems across the nation, are grappling with some of the same challenges. This includes declining ridership, funding instability, aging infrastructure, and competition from rideshare companies. Jonathan Hunt, who was recently appointed interim CEO and general manager of MARTA, talks with Rose about new initiatives to address lingering challenges ahead of the 2026 FIFA World Cup and his vision for Georgia’s largest transit system. Lastly, Compassionate Atlanta is gearing up to host its 4th annual CompassionCon. The one-day event, described as a fusion between conference and festival, aims to promote compassion across organizations, schools, businesses, churches and communities and more. We hear from the co-directors of Compassionate Atlanta, Leanne Rubenstein and Iyabo Onipede. They talk more about the event and their nonprofit’s ongoing efforts to champion compassion across Georgia.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

“Guggenheim Abu Dhabi is a unique concept. The idea behind the building itself is a dance. It's a living building because it's a dance between spaces. It's a dance between blocks of spaces and shapes and cones, and it's inspiring for the future because the legacy is a huge factor for every project. It's the legacy for young architects and for other architects. It gives them the space to dream more and to feel like it can be possible, and not to be shy. Present more bold ideas that can inspire creativity because you can't see this building and walk in without feeling like you want to be creative as well.”Art museums have long been pillars of culture, but they are now at a critical juncture, navigating a new era defined by artificial intelligence, immersive technology, and the shifting habits of a global audience. The challenge is immense: how do you honor artistic tradition while building a museum for the future? On Saadiyat Island, Abu Dhabi is answering this question in a dramatic way, with the Guggenheim Abu Dhabi. Designed by the visionary architect Frank Gehry, this $1 billion project is more than just a new museum; it's a statement—a new cultural superpower announcing itself on the world stage. It will be the largest contemporary art museum in the world, several times the size of the Guggenheim in New York, and a key part of their constellation of museums that is expected to contribute an estimated $200 million annually to the local economy. In the lead-up to its 2027 opening, the Guggenheim Abu Dhabi is embracing a new vision: moving from an "exhibition economy" to an "experience economy," where art becomes a conversation, a laboratory for ideas at the intersection of creativity and technology. Amr Hussein is the Digital Media Manager for the Guggenheim Abu Dhabi, and with a background in major sports broadcasting—from the FIFA World Cup to the Olympic Games—he's bringing a unique perspective to digital storytelling in the arts. We talk to him about his journey and how he's helping shape the digital narrative for this landmark museum.Episode Websitewww.creativeprocess.info/podInstagram:@creativeprocesspodcast

Over the last few months, concerns have been raised over the hosting of the 2026 FIFA World Cup in the United States. Particularly, concerns over human rights in the country, VISA worries, and accusations of sportswashing have been increasingly levied towards the country. The relative lack of coverage of these concerns, comparatively to concerns over the previous tournament in Qatar, or those in the future in countries like Saudi Arabia, complicate the history that Football and FIFA have with questionable regimes and funding. Despite Trump Administration Policies that seem to threaten the tournament, there continues to be a lack of noise around whether or not the Three host countries should be reduced to two, removing the US. Monday Wire Producer Alex spoke to a Doctoral Candidate at the University of Auckland, Luke Bird, about this Sportwashing, its background, and why the US and countries like Qatar are treated differently.

The facility, now a sprawling 50,000 square feet, is the latest investment from owner Arthur Blank, bringing the total spend on the space to over $90 million. What’s new? A second gym for Atlanta United 2 and Academy players, a cutting-edge Emory Healthcare Studio (complete with podcast and video production spaces), and more than 100 workspaces for staff. Marietta Mayor Steve “Thunder” Tumlin called the ribbon-cutting a celebration of progress. The timing couldn’t be better, with the 2026 FIFA World Cup just around the corner. Atlanta United expects to host an international team at the facility during the tournament, and Tumlin is confident it’ll be the top pick. And they’re not done yet. Phase two is already in the works, with plans for hydrotherapy rooms, hyperbaric chambers, and expanded recovery spaces. The goal? To have it all ready before the World Cup kicks off. STORY 2: Toastique brings gourmet toast and juices to east Cobb Toastique has officially landed at the corner of Roswell and Johnson Ferry roads, bringing a fresh twist to the neighborhood’s food scene. Think gourmet toast, smoothies, and juices—but make it Instagram-worthy. Founded by former Division 1 cheerleader Brianna Keefe, Toastique started in D.C. back in 2018 and has since grown into a national sensation. Here in East Cobb, Rex and Leslie Sheridan are running the show. The menu? Packed with healthy, colorful options. Fan favorites include the Smoked Salmon toast (loaded with salmon, herbed cream cheese, and all the fixings), the Açai Smoothie Bowl, and the Avocado Smash. Rex, a pescatarian, swears by the Tomato Burrata toast—“It’s my go-to,” he says. The vibe inside matches the food: light, airy, and full of plants. There’s even a to-go fridge stocked with pressed juices and chia puddings, all made in-house. For Rex, this isn’t just a business—it’s personal. After years of health struggles, he discovered that better eating was the key to feeling better. Toastique is open daily, 7 a.m. to 5 p.m., at 4250 Roswell Road. Stop by, snap a pic, and taste what all the buzz is about. STORY 3: Brian Snitker out as Braves' manager, will transition into advisory role  After months of whispers and speculation, Brian Snitker finally made it official: he’s stepping down as Atlanta Braves manager after the 2025 season. But don’t worry—he’s not going far. Starting in 2026, Snitker will take on an advisory role with the team, marking his 50th year with the Braves organization. At a press conference at Truist Park, the Braves announced Snitker’s transition and revealed he’ll be inducted into the team’s Hall of Fame next year. The event was full of praise, gifts, and a lot of emotion. Snitker’s journey with the Braves is the stuff of baseball legend. Signed as a catcher in 1977, his playing career didn’t pan out, but Hank Aaron saw something in him and offered him a coaching job. From there, Snitker worked his way up, managing at nearly every level of the minors before taking over the big-league club in 2016. When he stepped in, the Braves were at rock bottom—the worst record in baseball. But under Snitker, they turned it around fast. Seven playoff appearances, six division titles, and a magical 2021 World Series win later, he’s cemented his legacy. Now, he’s looking forward to spending time with his family—his wife, Ronnie, their kids, and three grandkids. We have opportunities for sponsors to get great engagement on these shows.

Break: TRUCK A PALOOZA STORY 4: Cobb County feels early impacts of federal government shutdown Cobb County is already feeling the ripple effects of the government shutdown, which kicked off at midnight when Congress failed to pass a budget. No funding, no updates—just ask Dobbins Air Reserve Base, whose website now greets visitors with a blunt message: “Due to the government shutdown, this website is not being updated.” Calls to their public affairs team? Crickets. National parks like Chattahoochee River National Recreation Area and Kennesaw Mountain Battlefield Park are technically “closed,” but outdoor areas remain open. Bathrooms, though? Not so much. Visitors are being told to bring their own toilet paper—yes, really—and pack out their trash. Meanwhile, protesters from Indivisible Cobb gathered at Kennesaw Mountain, as they do every Wednesday, to advocate for park staff and future generations. Organizer Gail Von Gonten voiced concerns about unpaid workers and stalled maintenance. Statewide, the shutdown could impact over 110,000 federal workers in Georgia. While furloughed employees may qualify for unemployment benefits, they’ll have to repay those funds once back pay kicks in. It’s a mess, and for now, there’s no clear end in sight. STORY 5: Cherokee Heights Art Festival is Oct. 18 Mark your calendars—on Oct. 18, the 17th Annual Cherokee Heights Arts Festival is taking over Freyer Drive NE (between Etowah and Chicasaw Drives) in Marietta from 9 a.m. to 4 p.m. Admission? Free. Parking? Also free. This charming neighborhood, a 1924 National Historic Register gem just a mile from Marietta Square, started as a small, invite-only art show among neighbors. In 2009, they decided to take it outside—and open it to everyone. Now, it’s a one-day celebration featuring over 40 local artists and makers. Expect everything from paintings and pottery to jewelry, baked goods, and even original books. Two music “stages” will keep the vibe lively with free performances all day, and kids can get crafty at an art station hosted by the Marietta/Cobb Museum of Art. Feeling hungry? Food and drinks will be available, and local nonprofits like CASA and MUST Ministries will also be there. For a sneak peek, check out the Cherokee Heights Arts Festival on Facebook or Instagram. And now here is Leah McGrath from Ingles Markets on cereals We’ll have closing comments after this.
