Nadine Crocker survived a suicide attempt when she was 23 years old. After leaving home at 16 to pursue a career in front of the camera, maybe she thought she could leave the intense feelings of loneliness, depression, and anxiety back in Fresno. Also, really pretty and talented people aren't supposed to have those kinds of feelings, are they? Well, they do and Nadine wasn't immune to the feelings that run through her family. She wrote, directed, produced, and starred in Continue as a gift to the world to help us all have better conversations about mental health. Most working actors will tell you that overnight success is a myth. Sure, there are exceptions to the rule, but there's a lot of rejection that comes when seeking an on-screen career. Authors tell me the same thing—many of us can line our walls with rejection letters from agents we've queried over the years. Just like there are few overnight successes, depression and anxiety are slow burns that, for some, eventually may lead to suicidal ideation, attempts, and, for too many, death. Those of us who have experienced these emotions, or who have loved ones who live with them, know that we all need to do a better job at recognizing mental health issues, addressing them, and loving those who experience them.  If you look closely at the cover art for the film, you will notice that the title is spelled Cont;nue, with a semicolon replacing the letter i. A friend of mine had to educate me on the significance behind this. She pointed me to a website for Project Semicolon whose late founder, Amy Bleuel, explained, “A semicolon is used when an author could've chosen to end their sentence, but chose not to. The author is you and the sentence is your life.” There is a tragic beauty to that sentiment; tragic that it had to be written at all but beautiful because the second chance/hope it implies. I know that you will enjoy my interview with Nadine, which is certainly much more upbeat than the subject matter we discussed. She's an amazing person with a light that comes through in her voice.  My only regret is not asking her if she was familiar with the 1986 mini series Fresno which took place in her hometown! Think Dallas but about raisins instead of oil. Please visit https://www.continuethefilm.com/ for more information about Nadine and the film.

Today we talk less about technical aspects of the auto industry, and more about what it means to be a professional in this business. Scott Biehl has been learning and growing in his career for 35 years. At age 21, he took a semester off school to sell cars. He sold 15 vehicles in his first 12 days and never looked back. Today, he's CEO of Tri-Unity Automotive Group, with dealerships in Fresno and Los Angeles, CA. On this episode, Scott talks about his habits and values. He shares how his daily routine helps create the success of his team, and he discusses how his professional standards ensure that the right people are advancing and growing the business.   Interview Highlights:   The many ways Tri-Unity Auto Group is family-oriented — from the company's origin story, to the values it imparts to employees, to its plans for future generations.  The questions and challenges Scott gives to employees who want to be promoted, to see if they're up for it, asking, “What have you done outside of work to prepare yourself for this next role?”  Stories of how Scott developed his work ethic and his company's values — from the lessons he learned as a kid, to the way he acted proactively when he saw the first signs of the inventory shortage.   Episode Quote:   “You should always be mentored by somebody, and you should always be mentoring somebody else.”   — Scott Biehl, CEO, Tri-Unity Auto Group   || Dealer News Today is a DCG Media production

Fresno, California, might not always be the most exciting place in the world, but it has one claim to fame that's out of this world. The Fresno Nightcrawler sightings began back in the 1990s and have only occurred a few times since then. These strange beings are cryptids that look like pants, but are only a few feet high and are seen just wandering around. There are only a few eyewitnesses in Fresno, but the Nightcrawlers do pop up on other surveillance cameras, startling whoever checks the CCTV tapes.   Follow all the madness on social media!

William Menn has been living on the streets of Elk Grove, California, for five years. He once had a business, but he will only say he didn't lose it because of COVID. He fell off his bike recently, and his arm is in a sling; he has a broken collar bone and two cracked ribs. He didn't whine or complain about it, and he didn't ask for money or food. But I offered. And delivered. Our One-On-One happened because he was sleeping at a bus stop on Elk Grove Boulevard without shoes or socks.  Two days before Thanksgiving and I refused to drive by and forget it. The man needed socks, for God's sake.  When we talked, he wasn't on drugs or drunk; he seemed educated and very well-spoken. He has a sense of humor. At one point, he used this phrase, "They are as worthless at Tits on a Boar Hog." He apologized for the profanity and said it was an old Texas saying. I laughed because I learned that phrase from one of my mentors, Mike Purl, at Channel 30, in Fresno, California.  I am thankful for many things in my life right now. I am extremely thankful I have a home. Anytime you have a conversation with anyone, you discover you have more questions than answers if you listen closely. I do. So I most likely will have a follow-up podcast to this one. Happy Thanksgiving Weekend, Everybody!   Music: Filaments' by @Scott Buckley

A look at holiday traffic. Just in time for the holidays, Yelp is launching a local option in partnership with 20 area businesses to offer check-in perks around Fresno. As aggressive mobs continue to target retailers, law enforcement blames organized crime rings that are recruiting young people with up to $1000 each and providing tools and escape routes in return for stolen items they'll sell online.  See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

In this episode we bring up events that we discussed in episode 12 that involved the Kenosha shooting. Sit with us and see what kind of contrast is seen from episode 12 to now. 

Kicking it off with the Buzz Question about "fully vaccinated" status. Shoplifting thefts are on the rise, including several local incidents in Fresno and Clovis. The Bay Area has experienced its third day of brazen thefts by large groups of thieves. As a result, SF District Attorney Chesa Boudin has stated that he will file felony charges for thefts in Union Square. With organized retail thefts on the rise, Gov. Newsom has called on CHP resources to increase officer presence at major retail sites going into the holidays.  See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Of the dozens of juicy questions for future inquiry that Dr. Michelle Nario-Redmond provides at the end of Ableism: The Causes and Consequences of Disability Prejudice (Published by Wiley in 2021), the following stands out the most to me, in my various group-membership roles: How do we build common ground between disadvantaged groups for effective cross-impairment coalitions? Though it seemed impossible for this question to feel any more urgent after over a year and a half of COVID-19 and the parallel prominence of social movements to make Black Lives Matter, a recent article by my latest author crush unpacking a profoundly intersectional moment in the meme culture of what we should be calling (thanks to Neal Stephenson's 30-year old book) Metaverse 1.0 – AKA social media, especially those platforms now owned by the maybe-monopoly formerly known as Facebook – reminded me again of the immense possibilities of disability as a political identity (see Annamma & Morrison, 2018, particularly the footnotes for more background on this). Nicole Froio's article-that-should-become-a-book extrapolates from a celebrity's (whack!) Instagram post as an exemplification of what the writer dubs the masculine “performativity of doing the least,” in which the “‘model' heterosexual family consists of an all-sacrificing mother, a paternalistic father, and children free from disability.” The timing of Froio's deft analysis and the 34,000 likes it has garnered–compared to the upwards of 2 million bestowed upon the post in question—remind me of beloved if nuclear boomer Bill Maher's synchronous editorial segment comparing “model citizen” Greta Thunburg (who is autistic), with 13 million followers, to the “model” (capitalist straight femme normate) Kylie Jenner, with 279 million.

Fresno First Church of the Nazarene in Fresno, CA. This is week 4 of our series looking at the prophet Elijah. This week we take a look at a low point in Elijah's life. When everything seemed to be going his way, he struggled with a depression of his own that we can relate to in many ways. Preached on November 21, 2021.

Smalltime: A Story of My Family and the Mob. Hardcover – February 2, 2021, by Russell Shorto  https://www.amazon.com/Smalltime-Story-My-Family-Mob/dp/0393245586/ref=tmm_hrd_swatch_0?_encoding=UTF8&qid=&sr= Family secrets emerge as a best-selling author dives into the history of the mob in small-town America. The best-selling author Russell Shorto, praised for his incisive works of narrative history, never thought to write about his own past. He grew up knowing his grandfather and namesake was a small-town mob boss but maintained an unspoken family vow of silence. Then an elderly relative prodded: You're a writer―what are you gonna do about the story? Smalltime is a mob story straight out of central casting―but with a difference, for the small-town mob, which stretched from Schenectady to Fresno, is a mostly unknown world. The location is the brawny postwar factory town of Johnstown, Pennsylvania. The setting is City Cigar, a storefront next to City Hall, behind which Russ and his brother-in-law, “Little Joe,” operate a gambling empire and effectively run the town. Smalltime is a riveting American immigrant story that travels back to Risorgimento Sicily, to the ancient, dusty, hill-town home of Antonino Sciotto, the author's great-grandfather, who leaves his wife and children in grinding poverty for a new life―and wife―in a Pennsylvania mining town. It's a tale of Italian Americans living in squalor and prejudice, and of the rise of Russ, who, like thousands of other young men, created a copy of the American establishment that excluded him. Smalltime draws an intimate portrait of a mobster and his wife, sudden riches, and the toll a lawless life takes on one family. But Smalltime is something more. The author enlists his ailing father―Tony, the mobster's son―as his partner in the search for their troubled patriarch. As secrets are revealed and Tony's health deteriorates, the book becomes an urgent and intimate exploration of three generations of the American immigrant experience. Moving, wryly funny, and richly detailed, Smalltime is an irresistible memoir by a masterful writer of historical narrative. 8 black-and-white illustrations ..

Fresno First Church of the Nazarene in Fresno, CA. This is week 3 of our series looking at the prophet Elijah. This week, we pick up the story from last week, and look at how Elijah prays immediately following the challenge with the prophets of Ba'al. Preached on November 14, 2021.

As Wildfire Intensity Rises, So Does The Human Toll Of Blazes It was Labor Day 2020, and Mammoth Pool Reservoir, in California's Sierra Nevada, was buzzing with campers. Karla Carcamo and her parents, siblings, cousins, and countless others, mostly from the Los Angeles area, have been coming here every Labor Day for 17 years. “Most of it is my family, and family that's invited family, and those family friends have invited friends of theirs,” she says. “I'm telling you, we have over 200 people.” Alex Tettamanti and her husband Raul Reyes are also Labor Day regulars. Every year, they drive in from Las Vegas to meet up with an off-roading club made up of a few dozen families from across the West. They fill their weekend with jet-skiing, ATVing and hiking. “It's beautiful,” says Tettamanti. “The smell of all the pine trees and stuff, and the trees are so big, it's really cool. The campground and reservoir are nestled at an elevation of about 3,000 feet in the Central California foothills a few hours northeast of Fresno. The attraction is unfiltered Sierra Nevada: Sparkling blue water surrounded by a thick forest of stately ponderosa pines and black oaks. Plus, it's isolated. There's only one road in and out, which dead ends at the lake. “Being there, let me tell you, it's like a little piece of paradise,” says Carcamo. That Friday passed like any other. Groups split up to go hiking, swimming and grilling, and Carcamo's family prepared for their annual pupusa night later in the weekend. By Saturday morning, however, the atmosphere had changed. “When I woke up, I did notice it was kind of cloudy,” says Reyes. “The sky was orange and there was ash, like big pieces of ash falling,” says Reyes' friend Vicky Castro. Read the rest at sciencefriday.com.   Squirrel-Nut Economics And Other Agility Tricks In many parts of the country, the lead-up to winter is a busy time for squirrels, furiously collecting and hiding acorns and nuts for the cold months ahead. But how can squirrels recall where it has stashed all its stores? And what can studying squirrels tell researchers about memory, learning, and economic decision-making in other species? Ira talks with Lucia Jacobs, a professor in the department of psychology and the Institute of Neuroscience at UC Berkeley, about her studies of the campus squirrels—from learning about their cognition, learning, and memory to recording the acrobatic movements of a squirrel on the ground and in the treetops. Jacobs co-leads a "squirrel school," observing rescued and orphaned juvenile squirrels as they learn normal squirrel behavior, and is contributing to a project seeking to develop robots using agility tricks learned from the rodents.   What Will We Reap Without Topsoil? You may have missed the research when it came out this February: a paper in the Proceedings of the National Academies of Science reporting on satellite studies of farmland topsoil in the nation's corn belt, states like Iowa, Indiana, and Illinois. And the news was not good. The team estimated that more than one-third of the topsoil in this region is gone, eroded mostly from hilltops and ridgelines, thanks to the plowing and tilling processes used to perform industrial agriculture. That topsoil, some of the richest in the world, is carbon-rich and crucial to our food supply. And yet it's continuing to wash away, a hundred years after scientists like Aldo Leopold first called out the threat of erosion. This erosion, as well as other degradation of soil's complex structure and microbiome, continues at a fast clip around the globe, hurting food production and ecosystems health. In addition, soil could be helping us contain more than 100 billion additional tons of carbon dioxide from the atmosphere—if we let it. But the good news, according to University of Wisconsin soil scientist Jo Handelsman, is that the solutions like cover crops and no-till farming are simple, well-understood, and easy to implement—as long as we give farmers incentives to make the leap. She talks to Ira about her forthcoming book, A World Without Soil: The Past, Present, and Precarious Future of the Earth Beneath Our Feet.

Essa Sexta-feira é um pouquinho diferente.

In this episode we discuss a tragedy that occurred at a musical festival. Who's at fault? Could this have been prevented? These are all questions being asked but ultimately lives were lost and occurrences like this should not occur. 

The Fresno Nightcrawlers, or Haunted Pants as we lovingly call them, are a relatively new cryptid that were first seen in 2007.  They've been primarily documented on security footage and despite the best efforts of investigative teams and even the History Channel, these clips cannot be explained or dismissed.We may not know what they are or where they come from, but we do know that we love them and will protect them at all costs.

Today we're joined by Kurt Kindig (American Ambulance's new Clinical Coordinator) and Amy Campbell (PLN for Fresno's Community Regional Medical Center) to discuss how the CQI process works and why it's so important to a healthy EMS system.

Tonight's guest, Shane, was born and raised in Hanford, California, which is about 1 hour south of Fresno. Shane had his 1st Sasquatch-related experience when he was 13 or 14 years old. He had gone on a camping trip with his boy scout troop, to a place called Ladybug Trailhead. After having that experience, he had several more. When he had all of those experiences, he didn't see the Sasquatch he believed was nearby. He just concluded that Sasquatch were present when he had those experiences due to what happened when he experienced them. That changed, though, when he had his most recent experience. This time, he clearly saw one, at close range. The experience left him sleeping with his covers pulled over his head, due to the trauma he experienced from it. We hope you'll tune in and listen to him share the details of all of his experiences, especially his sighting.If you'd like to check out my new Bigfoot show, called "My Bigfoot Sighting," there are two ways to listen.

Smalltime: A Story of My Family and the Mob. Hardcover – February 2, 2021, by Russell Shorto   https://www.amazon.com/Smalltime-Story-My-Family-Mob/dp/0393245586/ref=tmm_hrd_swatch_0?_encoding=UTF8&qid=&sr= Family secrets emerge as a best-selling author dives into the history of the mob in small-town America. The best-selling author Russell Shorto, praised for his incisive works of narrative history, never thought to write about his own past. He grew up knowing his grandfather and namesake was a small-town mob boss but maintained an unspoken family vow of silence. Then an elderly relative prodded: You're a writer―what are you gonna do about the story? Smalltime is a mob story straight out of central casting―but with a difference, for the small-town mob, which stretched from Schenectady to Fresno, is a mostly unknown world. The location is the brawny postwar factory town of Johnstown, Pennsylvania. The setting is City Cigar, a storefront next to City Hall, behind which Russ and his brother-in-law, “Little Joe,” operate a gambling empire and effectively run the town. Smalltime is a riveting American immigrant story that travels back to Risorgimento Sicily, to the ancient, dusty, hill-town home of Antonino Sciotto, the author's great-grandfather, who leaves his wife and children in grinding poverty for a new life―and wife―in a Pennsylvania mining town. It's a tale of Italian Americans living in squalor and prejudice, and of the rise of Russ, who, like thousands of other young men, created a copy of the American establishment that excluded him. Smalltime draws an intimate portrait of a mobster and his wife, sudden riches, and the toll a lawless life takes on one family. But Smalltime is something more. The author enlists his ailing father―Tony, the mobster's son―as his partner in the search for their troubled patriarch. As secrets are revealed and Tony's health deteriorates, the book becomes an urgent and intimate exploration of three generations of the American immigrant experience. Moving, wryly funny, and richly detailed, Smalltime is an irresistible memoir by a masterful writer of historical narrative. 8 black-and-white illustrations
