CTL Script/ Top Stories of April 18th Publish Date: April 18th   Pre-Roll: From the Ingles Studio Welcome to the Award-Winning Cherokee Tribune Ledger Podcast  Today is Friday, April 18th and Happy Birthday to Melissa Joan Hart ***04.18.25 - BIRTHDAY – MELISSA JOAN HART*** I’m Peyton Spurlock and here are the stories Cherokee is talking about, presented by Times Journal Cherokee County Approves 3.5 Miles of Resurfacing in Canton Nelson Buys 4 Acres From Cherokee for Public Works Building Judge says Trump officials likely in contempt over deportations Plus, Leah McGrath from Ingles Markets on Celiac Disease We’ll have all this and more coming up on the Cherokee Tribune-Ledger Podcast, and if you’re looking for Community news, we encourage you to listen and subscribe!  Commercial: MILL ON ETOWAH REV GENERIC_FINAL STORY 1: Cherokee County Approves 3.5 Miles of Resurfacing in Canton Residents of Great Sky and Laurel Canyon neighborhoods in Canton will soon see road resurfacing, following an agreement between Cherokee County and the city of Canton. The project covers 3.595 miles of roads, costing $941,199.89, with an additional 0.405 miles possible if funds allow. Funded by Local Maintenance and Improvement Grants and SPLOST, work includes Great Sky Parkway, Fountain Oak Way, and Laurel Canyon Parkway. Cherokee County also approved a $3.36 million contract for resurfacing 17 miles countywide, including Towne Lake Hills East. Projects are set to finish by September, avoiding school traffic disruptions. STORY 2: Nelson Buys 4 Acres From Cherokee for Public Works Building The city of Nelson will build a new public works facility on a four-acre parcel purchased from Cherokee County for $120,000. Approved by the Cherokee County Board of Commissioners on April 15, the sale proceeds will go to the county fire department’s 2024 SPLOST budget. Nelson plans to use the site for housing sanitation trucks and equipment. The remaining six acres of the property will host a future fire station, replacing the unstaffed Fire Station 26, to better serve northern Cherokee County. STORY 3: Judge says Trump officials likely in contempt over deportations A federal judge, James Boasberg, found sufficient evidence to hold the Trump administration in criminal contempt for deporting accused Venezuelan gang members to El Salvador on March 15, defying his verbal order to halt the flights. Boasberg cited "willful disregard" and "bad faith" by officials but has not yet named individuals for prosecution, giving the administration a chance to comply by allowing detainees to seek U.S. judicial review. The deportations, tied to Trump invoking the Alien Enemies Act, sparked legal battles over presidential authority and due process, with the Supreme Court later overturning Boasberg’s order pausing the removals.

The Woodstock City Council approved the plan to improve parking turnover and reduce congestion, benefiting local businesses. Paid zones include Chambers, Elm, Main, and East Main Streets, with enforcement from 10 a.m. to 8 p.m. daily. Most parking, including a 600-space deck, remains free. Managed by Pivot Parking, the program aims to create 1,000 additional daily parking opportunities, with revenues funding enforcement and future parking improvements. STORY 5: Cherokee County Historic Store Transforming Into Coffee Shop The Cherokee County Board of Commissioners approved a legacy use for We2Friends Coffeehouse to transform the historic J.B. Mathis General Store on Union Hill Road into a coffeehouse and gift shop. Built in 1950, the store is a cherished piece of local history. The legacy use allows the business to open without rezoning, preserving the building while adapting it for modern community needs. The coffeehouse will feature locally roasted coffee, gifts, and a welcoming space for social interaction. Commissioners hope this project inspires others to restore historic buildings in the area.

GDP Script/ Top Stories for April 17th Publish Date: April 17th From the BG AD Group Studio Welcome to the Gwinnett Daily Post Podcast. Today is Thursday, April 17th and Happy birthday to Roddy Pipper ***04.17.25 - BIRTHDAY – RODDY PIPPER*** I’m Peyton Spurlock and here are your top stories presented by KIA Mall of Georgia. Stone Mountain Park To Host Annual Sunrise Service Easter Sunday Snellville preparing to break ground on Briscoe Park community center Authorities seize an amount of fentanyl that could kill every Georgian twice Plus, Leah McGrath from Ingles Markets on Celiac Disease All of this and more is coming up on the Gwinnett Daily Post podcast, and if you are looking for community news, we encourage you to listen daily and subscribe! Break 1: 07.14.22 KIA MOG STORY 1: Stone Mountain Park To Host Annual Sunrise Service Easter Sunday The Easter Sunrise Service tradition at Stone Mountain Park, started in 1944, continues on Sunday, April 20. Worshippers can hear messages from Bryant Wright, Crawford Loritts, and Parker Wyatt, with services beginning at 7 a.m. The park opens at 3 a.m., and the Summit Skyride starts at 4 a.m. The event includes sign language interpreters and family-friendly activities like Dino Fest afterward. Vehicle entry costs $20 for a day or $40 annually, while church vans and buses enter free. Walking the trail is free, and Skyride fees are $20 round-trip. STORY 2: Snellville preparing to break ground on Briscoe Park community center After two decades of planning, Snellville will break ground on a 34,000-square-foot community center at T.W. Briscoe Park on May 1, with construction starting May 5. Opening in summer 2026, the $11.3 million facility will feature basketball courts, an indoor walking track, multi-purpose rooms, an aerobics room, and an outdoor pavilion. Funded by special sales tax dollars, the project will enhance recreation and programming for the community. Construction impacts include the closure of outdoor basketball courts, re-routing of the fitness trail, and road closures within the park. New outdoor courts are planned for future development. STORY 3: Authorities seize an amount of fentanyl that could kill every Georgian twice Federal officials announced a major drug bust in Atlanta, seizing over 100 pounds of fentanyl—enough to kill 23 million people—and arresting 22 individuals linked to two Mexican cartels. However, cartel leaders Johnny and Jose Alfredo Hurtado Olascoaga remain at large, with an $8 million reward for their capture. The operation uncovered a Gwinnett County money-wiring scheme, "smurfing," to send drug proceeds to Mexico. The DEA called it Atlanta's largest fentanyl seizure, valued at $1.5 million. The years-long investigation was aided by the cartels' designation as foreign terrorist organizations. We have opportunities for sponsors to get great engagement on these shows. Call 770.874.3200 for more info. We’ll be right back Break 2: STORY 4: UPDATE: Three Arrested at Marjorie Taylor Greene Town Hall in Acworth Congresswoman Marjorie Taylor Greene's town hall in Acworth turned chaotic, with three arrests, two taser incidents, and nine protesters removed. Greene emphasized it was a "peaceful" event despite disruptions, including protesters shouting insults. The event, open only to registered constituents, featured pre-submitted questions. Greene defended Trump-era policies, denied Medicare cuts, and celebrated immigration crackdowns. She also promoted banning gender-affirming care for minors and praised Trump for pardoning Jan. 6 offenders. Outside, peaceful protests criticized Greene's actions. The event lasted an hour, with Greene addressing audience questions and reaffirming her commitment to the MAGA movement. STORY 5: Gwinnett moving closer to commuter bus service handover Gwinnett County is moving closer to transferring its Ride Gwinnett commuter bus routes to The ATL’s XPress service, consolidating routes between Gwinnett and Atlanta job centers. The transition, set for June 16, aims to save costs for riders and the county. Local bus, paratransit, and microtransit services will remain under county control. The move follows a 2023 study identifying inefficiencies in metro Atlanta commuter services. Public feedback led to adjustments in route times, and the county will finalize the agreement with The ATL in May. The change reflects efforts to streamline transit along the I-85 corridor.

Socialism isn't creeping in — it's marching proudly through America's streets. From AOC and Bernie's recycled rally crowds to violent May Day demonstrations and shocking antisemitic campus protests, the mask is off. The Democrat Party's most radical elements are no longer fringe — they're front and center. Funded by party donors, protected by silence, and unleashed on Jewish communities and even fellow Democrats. As chaos spreads, the question isn't if they'll lose control — it's when. And what happens next?

Shoot us a Text.Episode #1017: Today we talk Polestar's bold Tesla takedown with a $20K lease play, Jeff Bezos' stealthy new EV startup with big aspirations, and GM's pause on BrightDrop van production despite rock-bottom pricing.Show Notes with links:A secretive EV startup based in Michigan is gaining attention fast. Funded by Jeff Bezos and stocked with talent from Ford, GM, Harley-Davidson, and Stellantis, Slate Auto is taking a bold swing at building a $25,000 electric pickup.Founded in 2022 via Re:Build Manufacturing, Slate has already raised over $100 million and closed a Series B round.The company is targeting late 2026 production near Indianapolis, building a minimalist two-seat pickup truck.Slate's strategy flips the usual EV script—start affordable and scale with accessories, not luxury trims.Its product roadmap includes personalization, merchandise, and “Slate University” for customer-led upgrades.“We built it. You make it,” is the company's trademarked mission to empower buyers with customization.Polestar is going big to lure Tesla owners, offering a jaw-dropping $20,000 incentive for drivers to lease the new Polestar 3 luxury EV crossover—an offer good through the end of March.The deal includes a $15,000 “Clean Vehicle Incentive” plus a $5,000 “Conquest Bonus” for current Tesla owners.The offer applies only to leased 2025 Polestar 3s; delivery must be taken from existing inventory before March 31.The Polestar 3 is sleek, spacious, and built in South Carolina with top-tier tech and sustainable materials.Performance specs include up to 517 hp, a 0-60 time of 4.5 seconds, and up to 350 miles of range.The Polestar offer says: “The Polestar 3 offers more comfort, tech, and style than the aging Model Y,”GM is hitting the brakes on production of its all-electric BrightDrop van at its Ontario facility due to soft demand—despite deep discounts and compelling incentives that still make it a standout EV deal.Production at CAMI Assembly will pause April 14 and remain idle until October 2025 for retooling.The move affects nearly 500 workers and drops the plant to a single shift post-relaunch.Only 274 BrightDrop vans were sold in Q1 2025—a modest 7% increase year-over-year.The announcement follows market jitters caused by Trump's tariff threats and broader EV hesitations.“It's a crushing blow to hundreds of working families in Ingersoll,” said Unifor President Lana Payne.Join hosts Paul J Daly and Kyle Mountsier as they connect the dots across car dealerships, retail trends, emerging tech like AI, and cultural shifts—bringing clarity, speed, and people-first insight to automotive leaders navigating a rapidly changing industry.Get the Daily Push Back email at https://www.asotu.com/ JOIN the conversation on LinkedIn at: https://www.linkedin.com/company/asotu/

As organizers stated on the Kill The Cuts website,  "By cutting funds to lifesaving research and medical care, the Trump administration is abandoning families who are suffering and costing taxpayers billions of dollars. These cuts are dangerous to our health, and dangerous to our economy.

From removing diversity, equity, and inclusion initiatives to suspending foreign aid and canceling federal funding, it is clear that the current administration is drastically changing the landscape of government-funded research as we know it. What should research institutions be doing now to best prepare themselves for what's to come?  On this episode, Epstein Becker Green attorneys Marylana Saadeh Helou, Emily Chi Fogler, and Elizabeth McEvoy discuss how recent executive actions are impacting federally funded research at ambulatory medical centers, hospitals, universities, and other institutions, as well as how these actions may impact existing or future grants from the government.

MDJ Script/ Top Stories for April 9th Publish Date:  April 9th    Commercial: From the BG Ad Group Studio, Welcome to the Marietta Daily Journal Podcast.    Today is Wednesday, April 9th and Happy Birthday to Hugh Heffner ***04.09.25 - BIRTHDAY – HUGH HEFFNER*** I’m Keith Ippolito and here are the stories Cobb is talking about, presented by Times Journal ‘Bound to Work’: Marietta Eyes Relocation of Downtown Dumpsters Austell Dance Team's Trailer Containing Props, Set Pieces Stolen Before Competition Cobb Moves Toward Consolidating Commuter Bus Routes, Nixing Free Loop All of this and more is coming up on the Marietta Daily Journal Podcast, and if you are looking for community news, we encourage you to listen and subscribe!  BREAK: MONSTER JAM 2025_FINAL STORY 1: ‘Bound to Work’: Marietta Eyes Relocation of Downtown Dumpsters After over a decade of debate, Marietta city officials are advancing plans to relocate three city-owned dumpsters near Marietta Square. Public Works Director Mark Rice presented two options, with the council favoring Option B, which would move the dumpsters into an enclosure in First Baptist Church’s parking lot and make Root Street one-way, adding nine parking spaces. The council voted unanimously to move the plan forward, with final traffic flow and parking details to be determined later. Mayor Tumlin and others expressed optimism about the long-awaited solution. STORY 2: Austell Dance Team's Trailer Containing Props, Set Pieces Stolen Before Competition Lisa’s Dance Spot (LDS) in Austell is seeking help to locate their stolen cargo trailer, taken on March 24. The trailer, loaded with props for their competitive dance team’s Michael Jackson-themed routine, was last seen via Flock cameras heading toward downtown Atlanta. Despite the theft, the team rebuilt their sets overnight with the help of dedicated “Prop Dads” and went on to win first place at a regional competition. Studio founder Lisa Pillow praised the team’s resilience and community support. Anyone with information is urged to contact Austell Police. STORY 3: Cobb Moves Toward Consolidating Commuter Bus Routes, Nixing Free Loop Cobb County is considering eliminating the free CobbLinc Green Circulator near The Battery and consolidating commuter routes with the Atlanta-region Transit Link Authority’s 484 Xpress Route. The Board of Commissioners voted 4-0 to begin public feedback on these changes, which aim to improve efficiency amid declining ridership. Adjustments to the Blue Circulator route are also proposed. Public hearings are set for April 22, with a final vote on May 13 after the District 2 commissioner seat is filled. CobbLinc’s 2023 operations cost $30.85 million, with funding from federal, county, and fare revenues. We have opportunities for sponsors to get great engagement on these shows. Call 770.799.6810 for more info.    Break: INGLES 5 STORY 4: Marietta to Consider Changes to Development at Former Harry’s Site The Marietta City Council is reviewing changes to the Marietta Crossing development, which includes 236 apartments and 39 townhomes. Developer Westplan Investors seeks to convert 10,000 square feet of retail space into either live/work units or full residential, citing weak retail demand. If approved, the project would add 12 apartments, totaling 248. Councilmembers are divided, with some favoring all-residential for safety and market reasons, while others believe residential could support retail. The council is also reviewing revised plans for the townhomes, with most being three stories and a few two stories. Final decisions are expected this week. STORY 5: YMCA of Metro Atlanta’s to Host 62nd Annual Good Friday Breakfast The YMCA of Metro Atlanta will host its 62nd Annual Good Friday Breakfast on April 18 at the Cobb Galleria Centre, celebrating its mission of fostering healthy spirit, mind, and body. Kevin Greiner, CEO of Gas South, will receive the Bransby Christian Leadership Award for his impactful community service and Gas South’s $1.3 million in support. Their contributions have enhanced YMCA programs like Adaptive Swim, benefiting over 400 participants, and STEAM Labs, inspiring creativity and education. The event unites over 800 attendees to honor these achievements and support the YMCA’s initiatives. Break: MONSTER JAM 2025_FINAL STORY 6: Driver’s License Deadline Approaching Starting May 7, U.S. travelers will need a REAL ID or other federally approved identification to board domestic flights. Georgia began issuing REAL ID-compliant licenses in 2012, but those who recently moved or haven’t renewed their license should check for a gold or black star in the upper right corner of their ID. If it’s missing, schedule an appointment with the Department of Driver Services to avoid long lines as the deadline approaches. REAL ID enhances security to combat terrorism and identity fraud, requiring an in-person application for first-time compliance. STORY 7: Cobb County Public Library Launches Perks Program The Cobb County Public Library launched the CCPL Perks Program during National Library Week, offering library cardholders a 10% discount at select Marietta Square businesses.

The federal government has spent nearly $3 billion on electric vehicle infrastructure. So far? Only 214 individual chargers have been built across the entire country. In this episode of American Potential, host David From sits down with Jeremiah Mosteller, Policy Director at Americans for Prosperity, to unpack how taxpayer dollars are being funneled into inefficient, top-down government programs that promise a cleaner future—but deliver very little. They take a hard look at two major Department of Transportation programs that were supposed to make EV charging more accessible nationwide. Instead, Mosteller reveals how the money has been doled out in lump sums to states, who then hand it over to private companies—regardless of whether there's actual demand for chargers. In one case, chargers are popping up in areas where no one even drives electric vehicles, including rural towns in North Carolina. Meanwhile, billions continue to be allocated without meaningful results or oversight. The episode also dives into other examples of government overreach and inefficiency—from a $2 million grant to train students how to fly drones, to fuel economy regulations that will raise car costs for working Americans. And in perhaps the most jaw-dropping revelation, the Department of Transportation still processes federal retirements on paper—stored in filing cabinets inside a limestone mine in Pennsylvania. This is part of the “Big Ideas for Smaller Government” series, where David and Jeremiah are working toward a bold goal: identifying $2 trillion in federal spending cuts. If you believe innovation comes from the ground up—not from Washington D.C.—and that government should be accountable for how it spends your money, this episode will give you plenty to think about.

CTL Script/ Top Stories of April 4th Publish Date: April 4th   Pre-Roll: From the Ingles Studio Welcome to the Award-Winning Cherokee Tribune Ledger Podcast  Today is Friday, April 4th and Happy Birthday to Robert Downey Jr. ***04.04.25 - BIRTHDAY – ROBERT DOWNEY JR*** I’m Peyton Spurlock and here are the stories Cherokee is talking about, presented by Times Journal Roundabout to Replace Four-Way Intersection in Ball Ground Canton Police Investigating Fatal Crash Cherokee County Puts Pause on Gas Stations and Convenience Stores Plus, Leah McGrath from Ingles Markets on seed oils We’ll have all this and more coming up on the Cherokee Tribune-Ledger Podcast, and if you’re looking for Community news, we encourage you to listen and subscribe!  Commercial: MILL ON ETOWAH REV GENERIC_FINAL STORY 1: Roundabout to Replace Four-Way Intersection in Ball Ground A $3.2 million roundabout is set to replace the four-way stop at Ball Ground Highway and Howell Bridge Road to address safety and congestion issues. The Cherokee County Board of Commissioners approved the project, awarding the contract to Wilson Construction Management, the lowest bidder. Construction, in partnership with the city of Ball Ground, begins in May and will take about a year, with intermittent lane closures. Funded by SPLOST and a $500,000 GDOT grant, the roundabout also marks the first phase of the Ball Ground Bypass project. STORY 2: Canton Police Investigating Fatal Crash The Canton Police Department is investigating a fatal crash involving a tractor-trailer and an SUV on Riverstone Parkway near the I-575 southbound on-ramp. Emergency responders quickly arrived, and the interstate was temporarily closed for investigation and cleanup. The roadway has since reopened, but the cause of the crash remains under investigation. Police Chief Marty Ferrell expressed condolences to the victim's family and urged anyone with information to contact the Special Operations Division at 770-720-4883. STORY 3: Cherokee County Puts Pause on Gas Stations and Convenience Stores Cherokee County has enacted a 90-day moratorium on new applications for gas stations, convenience stores, and car washes in unincorporated areas. Approved unanimously by the Board of Commissioners, the pause allows time to assess zoning and placement of these businesses, particularly along the Highway 92 corridor, which already has nine under construction. Existing permits are unaffected. A public hearing will follow the moratorium to decide on potential extensions or new regulations. Commissioner Corey Ragsdale emphasized the need to address public concerns and better plan future developments. Mobile car wash businesses are exempt from the moratorium. We have opportunities for sponsors to get great engagement on these shows.

Celebrated during Georgia Ag Week by Agriculture Commissioner Tyler Harper, CCSD was one of 10 districts honored. Tina Farmer, CCSD’s executive director of School Nutrition, and Jessica Emmett, Culinary Specialist, attended the event, which featured a lunch and cooking demo by 2025 Georgia Grown Chef Carlos Granderson, showcasing local ingredients. STORY 5: Industrial Park Coming to Ball Ground Highway Cherokee County has approved a 35.74-acre rezoning for a 150,000-square-foot industrial park near Ball Ground Highway and the Cherokee County Regional Airport. The development, by Ball Ground Business Park, LLC, will feature three 50,000-square-foot buildings and 411 parking spaces. Zoned as a "workplace center," it aligns with the county's vision for light industrial use. Access will be from Ball Ground Highway, with no entry via Allison Lane. Conditions include adding turn lanes per a traffic study and requiring another study if the site expands beyond 150,000 square feet. Zoning buffers will separate it from nearby agricultural properties.

In this episode of Golf and Politics, Matt and Rob dive into a surprisingly thoughtful and balanced political conversation centered around a proposed Catholic charter school in Oklahoma. Despite often sparring from opposite sides of the aisle, the hosts find rare common ground as they explore the constitutional, cultural, and political implications of public funding for religious education. The conversation touches on the separation of church and state, legal precedent, and the long-term consequences of opening the door to state-supported religious institutions—both for Christians and people of other faiths. Also in this episode: Rob shares stories from his recent golf trip to Asia, and Matt gives a quick update on the Parker Improvement Project, tying it all together with laughs, lively debate, and a shared love of golf.

Why would a company founded as a nonprofit now require $40 billion in private capital—more than triple the previous record—and what exactly is it planning to do with all that money, especially when half of it depends on a complete structural overhaul that's already sparked lawsuits and regulatory scrutiny? That's not just a casual curiosity; it's the kind of question that reveals everything about the current state of artificial intelligence, the people funding it, and the unstable marriage between innovation and corporate ambition. When OpenAI announced Monday that it had closed the largest private tech funding round in history, the sheer size of the deal raised more eyebrows than champagne glasses. The numbers are loud, the conditions are loaded, and the implications are tangled in politics, profits, and power plays from some of the wealthiest forces in tech.

AP correspondent Julie Walker reports on the Wisconsin Supreme Court election and Elon Musk's involvment.

The Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program—or "SNAP"—is an option for people who need federal financial help to feed their families and buy groceries. In fiscal year 2023, more than 42 million people across the country received SNAP benefits, roughly 12% of Americans. In Texas and several other states, an effort has been made to prevent beneficiaries from using SNAP to purchase unhealthy foods. This movement has only gained momentum since the Trump administration and the new Health and Human Services Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr. vowed to “Make America Healthy Again.” This week, Gurnal Scott spoke with Texas State Senator Mayes Middleton, who has a bill to prevent people from using SNAP benefits on things like chips, cookies, candy, and soda. He explained these items offer little to no nutritional value and are fueling America's obesity problem and raising health care costs for all Americans. Middleton also addressed the concerns of critics who worry about denying Americans choices on how to feed their families. We often must cut interviews short during the week, but we thought you might like to hear the full interview. Today on Fox News Rundown Extra, we will share our entire interview with Texas State Senator Mayes Middleton and get even more of his take on how reforming the SNAP program can make Americans healthier and save taxpayers money.

Public records reveal that Lara has taken 46 trips, often missing key state insurance hearings. Critics argue that these trips, which include stays at luxury hotels, lack clear business purposes and raise questions about the appropriate use of taxpayer money. Lara's office defends the travel.

In this inspiring and practical episode, I share how I made a long-time dream come true: leading fully funded, grant-supported wellness retreats for physicians—programs paid for by departments, organizations, and grants. I share with you how I helped make it happen and how you can too. This episode is a roadmap for those who want to bring truly impactful wellness programming to healthcare settings—programs that nourish, connect, and transform rather than check a box or deliver more burnout in disguise. With clarity, hope, and grounded optimism, I offer what I've learned from decades in the physician wellness space and what often moves the needle. Whether you're a leader, a wellness advocate, or simply someone who cares deeply about your colleagues and your own well-being, this episode will empower you with both mindset and strategy to make real change. Pearls of Wisdom: Believe it's possible—because it is. The first and most important step to getting wellness programs funded is unwavering belief. When you bring grounded confidence and clarity to your request, funding often follows. Experience the transformation yourself first. Engaging personally in a coaching program or retreat is what gives you the insight, energy, and credibility to advocate successfully for your team or institution. Effective wellness programming gets funded. When you offer something proven to make a real difference—something restorative, skill-based, and community-focused—funding is far more likely. Creative funding abounds-- if you know where to look. Departmental funds, philanthropy grants, CME budgets, leadership development funds, and quality-of-care and patient care experience initiatives are all potential sources of support. Invite leadership in. When leaders participate in wellness programming, they become their most powerful champions. Experiencing wellness programs firsthand not only helps them become more well, but it also shifts their mindset and opens the door to culture change. Reflection Questions: What beliefs do you hold about the possibility of bringing meaningful wellness to your organization? How might your personal wellness journey serve as a catalyst for broader change? Who could you invite to plant the seed for future transformation? Stay tuned until the end for a mindful moment to center your intentions and renew your belief in what's possible—for you, your team, and the future of healthcare. If you are ready to bring meaningful wellness programming to your organization, I would love to help.  This is my specialty. I've led programs for physicians across the country—from department-sponsored retreats to grant-supported leadership workshops. If you're in the Bay Area, I can create something beautiful in Nicasio. If you're elsewhere, I can come to you and facilitate an experience where you are- with the caveat that I insist on settings that enhance the impact of the programming.  Visit https://www.jessiemahoneymd.com/retreats to learn more about opportunities to start by experiencing a retreat for yourself.  To explore coaching that will help you not only be well but also become a powerful advocate for wellness, visit https://www.jessiemahoneymd.com/coaching. If you're interested in bringing me to speak or lead a wellness workshop or retreat for your institution or conference, reach out here: https://www.jessiemahoneymd.com/speaking. I'd love to partner with you to create meaningful change. *Nothing shared in the Mindful Healers Podcast is medical advice.  

Vice President JD Vance suggested that the ongoing vandalism of Tesla vehicles may be a coordinated effort, emphasizing that "terrorism is not cheap."Speaking Thursday on The Vince Show, a conservative talk program on Westwood One, Vance argued that attention should be directed toward "the guy at the top writing the checks" rather than the "foot soldiers" carrying out the attacks.

The news of Texas covered today includes:Our Lone Star story of the day: Sadly Senator Charles Perry joined with a few others to help Senator Nichols gut the bill to ban taxpayer funded lobbying. The bill, SB 19 by Senator Middleton, is a wheat-from-the-chaff issue for anyone interested in good and better government. It is an issue conservatives and Republicans have been working to pass for many years.Senator Perry's joining in the gutting amendment is siding with local government functionaries over his constituents (as well as big-government Democrats and RINOs.) And, what does it say about the work of elected officials that they need a hired-gun lobbyist to work with them in order to “make sure the voices back home can be heard,” as Senator Nichols stated?

BREAK: Ingles Markets 9 STORY 1: Powder Springs Woman Accused of Pushing Woman out of Moving Vehicle Kenya Latrice Smith, 48, of Powder Springs, is accused of pushing a woman out of a moving vehicle during an argument on March 8 in Marietta. According to police, Smith struck the victim while driving, and when the victim tried to exit, Smith pushed her out, causing severe injuries, including road rash, facial wounds, and permanent scarring. Smith was arrested shortly after and charged with aggravated assault and aggravated battery. She remains in custody without bond. STORY 2: Smyrna to Close Portion of King Street Each Weekend Starting this weekend, a portion of King Street in Smyrna will close to vehicle traffic from Fridays at 3 p.m. to Sundays at 6 p.m. until November. The Smyrna City Council approved the closure to enhance pedestrian safety around the popular downtown greenspace. Mayor Derek Norton emphasized the need to protect families enjoying the area, allowing easier access between the playground and greenspace. Barriers and potential bollards will be installed to enforce the closure, which may also benefit festivals. Norton praised the greenspace’s success and plans to evaluate the measure’s impact before considering expansion. STORY 3: Town Center Mall Pays Taxes, Avoids Auction Town Center mall has paid off nearly $1 million in overdue 2024 property taxes, avoiding a tax deed auction that could have led to new ownership. The mall, owned by Kohan Retail Group since 2023, has faced financial struggles, including power shutoffs and lawsuits. Recently placed in receivership, Lewis Taulbee of JLL now oversees its management. Despite challenges, the mall remains 90% leased, with hopes for redevelopment into a mixed-use space to revitalize the area. Local leaders envision a thriving future for the property, though its exact path remains uncertain. We have opportunities for sponsors to get great engagement on these shows.
