This week on The Luke Branquinho Show, Luke sits down with Stetson Wright following one of the most talked-about comeback seasons in professional rodeo. After a serious injury, Wright returned to the sport and captured two gold buckles at the 2025 National Finals Rodeo, winning the PRCA Bull Riding World Championship and the PRCA All-Around World Championship. His momentum has continued into 2026 with standout performances at Denver and Fort Worth, reaffirming his place at the top of the sport. The season was made even more historic alongside his family. Statler Wright claimed his first gold buckle as Saddle Bronc Riding World Champion, Ryder Wright finished as Reserve World Champion, and the brothers went 1-2-3 in the final Saddle Bronc world standings. One moment at the NFR became one of the most debated calls of the year. In Round 6 of saddle bronc riding, Wright appeared to complete a clean ride, only for it to be ruled a no-score on a controversial mark-out call. Despite instant replay, the decision stood and sparked widespread debate across the rodeo world. ━━━━━━━━━━ ★

Five years ago, the body of 28-year-old Christopher Whiteley was found near a wooded creek bed in Hood County, about 55 miles outside of Fort Worth.Deputies theorized a cougar had killed him. Texas wildlife experts said that was impossible. So what really happened?From its earliest moments, an investigation by The Dallas Morning News found the examination into Whiteley's death was riddled with false assumptions and errors that forensics and wildlife experts say left too many unanswered questions.Now, the fourth season of The Unforgotten podcast from Free Range Productions in association with The Dallas Morning News examines Whiteley's story in a six-part series entitled “Kill Site.” The series is hosted by Free Range's Wes Ferguson, a former Texas Monthly editor based near Austin. The podcast draws from a 2021 investigation by former News staff reporter Charles Scudder, who is a contributor on the show.We're dropping a new episode each week here in your Dallas Morning News podcast feed.Bonus: Episode 7: “The Scapegoat”Christopher Whiteley's death lands right in the middle of an even bigger controversy.This series contains mature subject matter and strong language, listener discretion is advised.Read The News' 2021 report on Whiteley's case, complete with maps, timelines and visuals: https://www.dallasnews.com/news/investigations/2021/09/23/authorities-say-a-hood-county-man-was-killed-by-a-cougar-texas-wildlife-experts-say-its-impossible/ Learn more about your ad choices.

In this episode of the Nonprofit Spotlight Series, hosted by Charity Charge, Grayson Harris sits down with Carol Klocek, CEO of the Center for Transforming Lives, to explore what it really takes to disrupt generational poverty and build long term economic stability for single mothers and their children.Founded in 1907 and rebranded in 2015, the Center for Transforming Lives has evolved into a comprehensive, two generational organization serving families across the Fort Worth and Tarrant County region. Carol shares how the organization pairs housing stability, early childhood education, clinical counseling, and economic mobility services to address the root causes of poverty rather than its symptoms.Key themes from the conversationA two generational approach to breaking poverty Carol explains why working with mothers and children at the same time is critical for lasting impact and how trauma informed care shapes every program they offer.Affordability and housing instability With single mothers earning a median income of $33,000 per year and spending more than half of their income on rent, Carol outlines why rising housing, childcare, and food costs create a pipeline to homelessness and how early intervention changes outcomes.Prevention over crisis response The episode dives deep into why preventing homelessness is far more effective and less costly than responding after families are displaced. Carol shares real data showing how keeping families housed reduces long term costs related to healthcare, education, and social services.Building efficient public nonprofit partnerships Carol details how the Center for Transforming Lives partners with healthcare providers, local government, and community organizations to deliver services more efficiently. From mobile health clinics to rent and utility assistance programs, these collaborations lower costs while expanding access.The power of a nonprofit hub model The organization's new campus serves as a community anchor, offering healthcare access, drop in childcare, coworking space, and meeting facilities that foster collaboration among nonprofits, small businesses, and workforce partners.Listening directly to the people served Carol shares why monthly “Coffee with Carol” sessions have become one of her most valuable leadership practices and how participant feedback drives program design and trust.Looking ahead to workforce development Looking toward 2026, Carol discusses plans to pilot vocational training partnerships paired with free childcare to help parents transition into high wage, in demand jobs in fields like healthcare, welding, and electrical work. ---------------------------About Charity ChargeCharity Charge is a financial technology company serving the nonprofit sector.

North Texans are left with one crucial question: When will this snow and ice melt? Unfortunately, there isn't just one answer. Instead, a pattern of melting and refreezing may persist for several days. That refreezing makes black ice a threat for D-FW commuters today. Exact road conditions will depend on how much ice can be cleared by the Texas Department of Transportation throughout the day. In other news, Wakeland High School officials confirmed that the 16-year old girl who died in a sledding accident Sunday was a sophomore at the school. 16-year old Elizabeth Angle died after the sled she and another 16-year-old girl were on collided with a tree; Gov. Greg Abbott said Monday the White House needs to “recalibrate” Immigration and Customs Enforcement's mission to rebuild public trust after federal agents fatally shot a second protester in Minnesota; nd Dallas police impounded nearly a dozen all-terrain vehicles Sunday after reports of reckless driving during the weekend's icy conditions, the department said, including one response in Deep Ellum that led to an arrest on a child-endangerment charge.

Matthew 4:12-32Now, when Jesus heard that John had been arrested he withdrew to Galilee. He left Nazareth and made his home in Capernaum, in the territory of Zebulun and Naphtali, so that what had been spoken by the prophet might be fulfilled: “Land of Zebulun, land of Naphtali, on the road by the sea, across the Jordan – Galilee of the Gentiles. Those who sat in darkness have seen a great light; those in the region and the shadow of death, on theme light has shined.”From that time, Jesus began to proclaim, “Repent, for the kingdom of heaven has come near.”As he walked along the Sea of Galilee, he saw two brothers, Simon, who is called Peter and Andrew, his brother, casting a net into the lake – for they were fishermen. He said to them, “Follow me and I'll make you fish for people.” Immediately, they left their nets and followed him. As he walked along a little further, he saw two other brothers, James the son of Zebedee, and his brother John, in the boat with their father, mending their nets, and he called them. Immediately, they left the boat and their father, and followed him.And Jesus went throughout Galilee, teaching in their synagogues and proclaiming the good news of the kingdom, and curing every disease and every sickness among the people. I have those walking monks from Texas on the brain lately. They are inspiring a piece of what we hope to do together during Lent in a few weeks, which you'll hear about soon enough. But I they came to mind as I read this morning's Gospel story about Jesus, making his way around Galilee.Surely, you've heard about the Buddhist monks from Fort Worth, Texas. They've been “walking for peace” since October, with plans to make their way to Washington, D.C., sometime in February. 2,300 miles, I believe. Just walking. Stopping every once in a while to give talks about what they're up to – which is nothing more and nothing less than walking as an invitation to and witness about being mindful of peace and compassion. They've been compelled and inspired, of course, by a world – and our nation, in particular – that displays the opposite of those things, too much of the time; peace and compassion, I mean.So, they're just walking. And passing out prayer cords and flowers along the way. Shining a light on the call to be generous and deliberate about loving-kindness.Just walking. With their rescue dog Aloka, who walks faithfully along with them, and who has almost 700,000 followers on Facebook.Just walking. Even though at least one of them was injured along the way, after being hit by a car, and having his leg amputated.Just walking. Receiving the grace and generosity of strangers in the form of food and water and blessings of support and encouragement.Just walking. And gathering crowds as they go – in fits and starts – in various places; in all kinds of weather; sometimes a dozen or so; sometimes it looks like hundreds or thousands walking along with them.And all of it made me wonder about what we just heard about the beginning of Jesus' ministry – and if it started out just as simply and profoundly – with him just walking.When Jesus heard that John the Baptist had been arrested – which we know happened because John had spoken out against King Herod's unlawful behavior – Jesus likely felt like things had taken a turn in his world … that things had taken a turn, perhaps, in the world at large … to the point that he may not have felt safe or settled anymore in his hometown of Nazareth … maybe that he just couldn't sit still any longer …In fact, while Matthew's Gospel says that Jesus “left” Nazareth, we know from Luke's Gospel that there was more to it than that. Jesus actually got run out of town. He was kicked out of Nazareth. His hometown friends, family, and neighbors threatened to hurl him off a cliff, remember – because Jesus had the nerve to proclaim good news for the poor and recovery of sight for the blind; because he promised release for captives and freedom for the oppressed; because he reminded people about God's prophets doing ministry with – caring for – loving – and tending to – the outsiders, the outcasts, and the foreigners in Minneapolis … I mean the outsiders, the outcasts, and the foreigners in their midst.But when he was threatened with that cliff after standing up for foreigners, outsiders and outcasts, the Gospel says Jesus “passed through the midst of them and went on his way.”He just walked.And in today's Gospel, Jesus is just getting started. I imagine him walking alone when he meets Simon and Andrew – that first set of brothers who leave their nets and tag along, with the simple curiosity of what it might mean to “fish for people,” instead of, say, small mouth bass, for a change. And then Jesus gathers up James and John, who leave their boat and their dad behind, to go wherever Jesus was headed next. And maybe all of that is why some followed and some didn't. Maybe Zebedee was just too old for all of that walking. Maybe Zebedee wanted his boys to get out of the house, off the payroll, and about their own business for a change. Or, maybe Zebedee – like all those people in Jesus' hometown – wasn't on board with everything Jesus was preaching and teaching and calling them toward: release for the captive, freedom for the oppressed, care for the widow and the orphan, concern for the outcast, the immigrant, and the resident aliens in their midst.All of this is to say that this way Jesus was walking – and calling his followers to follow – was a hard one. It was counter-cultural and anti-establishment. It was dangerous and lonely, at times. It was not for the faint of heart. It was open-hearted and gracious to a fault. It was not popular or powerful – it was worthless and weak by the world's standards.But it was full of hope … hope that in spite of the brokenness of the world … that precisely because of the world's brokenness … the kingdom of heaven had come near, in Jesus. Hope … that just like before … those who sat in darkness had seen a great light. Hope … that just like before … those who sat in the region and the shadow of death … would have the light of God shine upon them, again.We could surely use some light to shine in our darkness right about now. We could surely use some hope in the face of the bad news, the violence, the lies, the unnecessary and unwarranted death and despair that seem to be winning the day for so many.And I heard someone say recently that “hope is not something you HAVE, it's something you DO.”“Hope is not something you HAVE, it's something you DO.”And that's what I see in those walking monks … and it's what I imagine Jesus was up to as he walked, too: holding out hope – for himself as he worried about John the Baptist's arrest; manifesting hope – as he grieved the loss of his hometown and their threats against him; holding out hope - as he saw the struggle and suffering of the hurting world around him; manifesting hope – for those who dared to walk with him for all of the above, and for all of us, just the same.I know it's not enough all of the time – just walking certainly doesn't feel like enough for many of us these days. And I know there won't be a lot of walking in the storm and snow that has covered so much of our country this weekend. But let's follow Jesus when and however we're able – with actions that hold out and that manifest hope – in the face of what can be so disheartening so much of the time.When things seem so frustrating, so fearful, so hopeless, imagine that HOPE isn't something you HAVE or something you can LOSE, even. Imagine, instead, that HOPE is something we can DO.So let us worship, learn and serve. Let us pray and be generous and kind. Let us walk and march for peace whenever the opportunity presents itself. And let us repent, too, that thing today's Gospel says Jesus couldn't shut up about once he started making his way around Galilee. “Repent for the kingdom of heaven has come near.”Repent for the things we've said and left unsaid.Repent for the things we've done and left undone.Repent for the actions we've taken and for the apathy we've shown.Repent for the ways we've ignored Jesus' invitation to follow him with faith, courage, justice, and love for all people.Let's repent because it means to change; because it means to turn around; because it means to do better now that we know better. Repent, because it means to exercise the Christ-like qualities of sacrifice, surrender, and humility.Let us repent, as a supreme act of faith, not because we HAVE to, but because we GET to. Repent, not full of shame or full of guilt or despair. But, let us repent and be filled with HOPE for the grace, mercy, forgiveness, and CHANGE that will come when we let the love of God, in Jesus, have its way with us, with our neighbor, with our enemies, and with the world God so loves.Amen.

Guest Author: Paul GregoryHeadline: The Day the World Changed: Perspectives from Fort Worth and OklahomaSummary: On November 22, 1963, Pete Gregory watched President Kennedy in Fort Worth while his son Paul, a student in Oklahoma, witnessed the news of the assassination. Seeing the suspect on television, Paul instantly recognized Lee Harvey Oswald, realizing the gravity of his connection to the unfolding tragedy.Article: On the morning of November 22, Pete Gregory stood outside the Continental Life Insurance building to watch President Kennedy address a friendly crowd, dispelling fears of right-wing hostility in Texas, before returning to his office where he later learned the President had been shot. Meanwhile, at the University of Oklahoma, Paul Gregory watched Walter Cronkite tearfully announce the President's death before seeing a bruised Lee Harvey Oswald on television, prompting him to tell his classmates, "I know that guy," and immediately concluding that Oswald was likely guilty and had acted alone.

In this episode of The Unconventional Path, hosts Bela Musits and Mike Wasserman sit down with Dave Munson, the founder of Saddleback Leather Company. If you have ever wondered how to build a business that prioritizes legacy over quick profits, this conversation is for you. Dave shares his "non-traditional" approach to entrepreneurship, shifting from his roots as a youth pastor to creating a global leather brand famous for its "They'll Fight Over It When You're Dead" warranty.+4The leather goods market is often viewed as a crowded, commodity-driven space. Dave explains how Saddleback Leather differentiates itself by refusing to compete on price. While many companies cheapen materials to satisfy shareholders or venture capitalists, Dave and his family own 100% of the company. This independence allows them to use the toughest leather, highest-quality linings, and most durable hardware available—creating products like $700 briefcases that are designed to last a century.+4Saddleback Leather operates a factory in Mexico employing approximately 150 people. Dave discusses the importance of quality control when dealing with raw materials like leather, which varies by hide. To maintain excellence, he sources from top-tier tanneries in both the United States and Europe.+3Dave doesn't rely on traditional marketing; instead, he uses storytelling to build a community of "super fans". The Saddleback website is famous for sharing Dave's personal adventures, his family life, and the founding story of the brand. By focusing on brand strength rather than aggressive sales tactics, the company has secured high-profile partnerships with organizations like Toyota and luxury hotels through word-of-mouth alone.+4Now based in Fort Worth, Texas, Dave is currently building a unique headquarters featuring buildings made from compressed leather bales. He shares his philosophy on leadership, emphasizing the need to encourage employees—even if that means helping them eventually start their own businesses.+4Don't Race to the Bottom: Instead of asking why your product is expensive, ask why your competitors' products are so cheap.The Power of Persistence: Dave likens entrepreneurship to karate, noting that the only difference between a white belt and a black belt is that the black belt kept going.Branding vs. Marketing: Focus on building a strong brand identity that people want to associate with.Connect with Saddleback Leather Company: Visit their website to read Dave's memoir and see his latest leather designs.Our podcast is now available on YouTube.  Simply search for "The Unconventional Path" to subscribe and never miss an episode.We're always on the lookout for interesting guests to feature on our show.

Imagine traveling down a sheet of ice at 90mph when your bobsled flips over and you slam your head into the ice wall. Meet William Person, 9 year member of the US Olympic bobsledding team. Join us as he shares his journey from college track and field, mental health advocate, member of the US Olympic bobsledding team to brain injury survivor and advocate. He saw first hand how untreated brain injuries devastate not only athletes but also military veterans and their families. William spent years in agony due to his repeated concussions. He only found relief when he began Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy. His message is simple, “If your loved one is doing something that's out of the norm, get them checked out!” Individuals with CTEs do not see how their behavior impacts those around them. Loved ones do. Guest Social Media Info - https://www.instagram.com/willp1234567?igsh=NTc4MTIwNjQ2YQ%3D%3D&utm_source=qr#https://www.facebook.com/william.person.792233/ https://www.facebook.com/one.man.with.a.chamber.hbot Send us a textSupport the showYou can find this episode's transcript here.New episodes drop every other Thursday everywhere you listen to podcasts.

As Hollywood faces an unprecedented crisis, Texas eyes an opportunity. Thanks to new tax incentives, the state is attracting producers and studios, with the ambition of promoting content aligned with family and Christian values. While the official goal is to create jobs in the industry, some lawmakers openly want to build a counterweight to Hollywood, which they see as ideologically hostile.

In the summer of 1976, a lavish Fort Worth mansion tied to wealthy oil heir Cullen Davis became the scene of a deadly ambush that left two people dead and others wounded, including the 12-year-old stepdaughter of his estranged wife.

A brief encounter with Buddhist monks on their walk for peace from Fort Worth to Washington, D.C., leads Cal to wonder what Martin Luther King Jr. might have thought if he'd seen the large crowd of Americans gathered in gratitude for their journey.

Pastor Will uses Exodus 16 and the story of manna to show that God's design for spiritual growth is daily dependence on Him, not occasional encounters, as Israel's grumbling in the wilderness revealed hearts shaped by fear and self-reliance while God responded by inviting them into a daily rhythm of trust, obedience, and relationship through heavenly provision; manna illustrates that yesterday's encounter cannot sustain today's hunger, teaching that discipleship is formed through consistent daily encounters with God—especially through prayer, the Word, and worship—which cultivate intimacy, maturity, and readiness for holy visitations, ultimately pointing to Jesus as the true Bread of Life who satisfies and transforms His people one day at a time.

Five years ago, the body of 28-year-old Christopher Whiteley was found near a wooded creek bed in Hood County, about 55 miles outside of Fort Worth.Deputies theorized a cougar had killed him. Texas wildlife experts said that was impossible. So what really happened?From its earliest moments, an investigation by The Dallas Morning News found the examination into Whiteley's death was riddled with false assumptions and errors that forensics and wildlife experts say left too many unanswered questions.Now, the fourth season of The Unforgotten podcast from Free Range Productions in association with The Dallas Morning News examines Whiteley's story in a six-part series entitled “Kill Site.” The series is hosted by Free Range's Wes Ferguson, a former Texas Monthly editor based near Austin. The podcast draws from a 2021 investigation by former News staff reporter Charles Scudder, who is a contributor on the show.We're dropping a new episode each week here in your Dallas Morning News podcast feed.This is episode 6: “Naming names.” This series contains mature subject matter and strong language, listener discretion is advised.Read The News' 2021 report on Whiteley's case, complete with maps, timelines and visuals: https://www.dallasnews.com/news/investigations/2021/09/23/authorities-say-a-hood-county-man-was-killed-by-a-cougar-texas-wildlife-experts-say-its-impossible/ Learn more about your ad choices.

There has been intense statewide focus on Tarrant County for weeks lately, and for good reason - the promising performance of Democrat Taylor Rehmet in the special election to fill the SD-9 State Senate seat, held for three decades by Republicans, has become a beacon of hope that this bellwether region of Texas is ripe to flip blue. Tarrant County Commissioner Alisa Simmons has been in the middle of the fight against the MAGA ravaging of the Fort Worth area for years, and is currently running to oust her arch-nemesis Tim O'Hare from the post of County Judge. As we mark MLK Day amidst an alarming rise of federalized street crackdowns by ICE, Commissioner Simmons weighs in on Dr. King's message and how we should interpret and implement it at this crucial, pivotal moment.Learn more about Alisa Simmons and her campaign at https://votealisasimmons.com/.Thanks for listening!

                          Listen in as Erin and Nathan discuss: The life-altering moment that changed everything: a training ride that ended in a 60-mph collision, a coma, and the long road of learning to walk, talk, and live again. How adversity can become fuel instead of dead weight — and why "tomorrow is never promised" reframes how we use our time today. The difference between knowledge and wisdom, and why mentorship + proximity to high-level thinkers compresses your learning curve. A powerful redefinition of wealth: true wealth = ownership of your time, built through aligned assets, income streams, and purpose-driven stewardship. Why systems + delegation create scale — and how building teams is the bridge from solopreneur to entrepreneur to capitalist.                                               About Nathan Barkocy is a real estate developer, entrepreneur, and the emerging voice behind the True Wealth movement. He is the co-author—alongside financial legend Sharon Lechter—of the upcoming book Old Wealth, New Wealth, True Wealth, set to publish on January 23, 2026, exactly ten years after a life-altering cycling accident that reshaped his purpose and mission. From rebuilding his life after being declared dead on the scene, Nathan has gone on to build multiple successful ventures across real estate development, restoration, wellness, and education. He is the founder of Testament Real Estate, Phoenix Real Estate Restoration, and the True Wealth Academy, as well as a growing media brand centered around generational wealth, personal growth, and time freedom. Guided and mentored by Sharon Lechter, Nathan blends timeless wealth principles with a modern, purpose-driven approach that resonates with the next generation of entrepreneurs and investors. His work emphasizes the pillars of financial literacy, intentional leadership, and building a legacy rooted in impact. Nathan is currently leading several major development projects—including the Galveston Skyline mixed-use district in Fort Worth and a master-planned resort and casino village in Colorado—and his message has gained national traction, earning endorsements from leaders like Ken McElroy, Russell Gray, Marcin Drozdz, and Mark Victor Hansen. Through his book, speaking engagements, and the True Wealth community, Nathan is inspiring others to rise above adversity, unlock their God-given potential, and build wealth that lasts across generations.
