After years of trials and tribulations, my Uncle Swole is finally free. His journey back to St. Louis was nothing short of extraordinary—a testament to resilience, hope, and the unbreakable bonds of family. Each mile traveled carried with it the weight of past struggles and the promise of a brighter tomorrow. As we approached the familiar streets of our hometown, anticipation surged through us, knowing the profound surprise awaiting my Grandmother. The moment she noticed my Uncle Swole, tears flowed freely, hearts swelled with joy, and the room was filled with the warmth of a family reunited. This was not just a return; it was a celebration of perseverance, love, and the power of never giving up.

Send us a textWhat happens when a grandmother's love collides with a broken system? When Christy Pace's grandson Hunter was diagnosed with Hypoplastic Left Heart Syndrome before birth, she found herself thrust into an unexpected role – not just as a supportive grandmother, but eventually as a visionary determined to transform how the CHD community connects.Our conversation pulls back the curtain on the rarely discussed perspective of grandparents in the CHD journey. Christy's raw honesty about her emotional response – moving from shock to protection, anger to fear – reveals the complex ripple effects when a heart diagnosis enters a family. When COVID restrictions prevented her from being present for Hunter's birth or even meeting him until he faced a life-threatening cardiac arrest at two months old, Christy's determination only grew stronger.The isolation heart families experience emerged as a central theme in our discussion. As Christy watched her daughter retreat from social gatherings to protect Hunter between surgeries, she recognized a hard truth many relatives miss: this isolation isn't a choice but a survival strategy. "This isn't 'I don't want them to get a cold,'" Christy explains. "This is life and death." Her passionate plea for extended family to keep inviting, even when the answer is consistently "no," offers valuable perspective for anyone supporting heart families.But what makes this conversation truly special is how personal trauma transforms into purpose. After years of searching for resources to help her daughter and grandson, Christy grew frustrated with the scattered nature of CHD support. Rather than starting another foundation, she's created something revolutionary: CHD Connects Hearts, a distraction-free ecosystem bringing together patients, families, organizations, and researchers in one private community without the noise of advertising or algorithms.Whether you're a heart parent, grandparent, or supporter, this episode offers both emotional validation and practical hope. As Christy reveals her vision for united progress in the CHD world, you'll be inspired to consider how connection might be our most powerful medicine.Link to CHD Connects Hearts: https://chdconnectshearts.com/homeAnna's Blog: https://www.heartsunitetheglobe.com/hug-blog/moving-beyond-facebook-joining-forces-with-chd-connects-heartsSupport the showAnna's Buzzsprout Affiliate LinkBaby Blue Sound CollectiveSocial Media Pages:Apple PodcastsFacebookInstagramMeWeTwitterYouTubeWebsite

This is a special Topic Tuesday episode Flashback from 2023 when President Joe Biden was in office. I rant and rave my distain and frustrations about this threat of government shutdown that seemed to be occuring every year the past 5 years starting from President Trump's first year in office.

“This is Ground Zero for Agenda 2030 across the Globe. What is here Epitomizes what ALL Farmers are Facing, including the Highest Risk of Mankind's Food Security and Natural Solutions to Heal being Eradicated from God's Creation” Mere hours from the peaceful, 35-yr old multi-generational farm in British Columbia, a CHILD IS REPORTED MISSING and a community responds… Yet instead of mounting area-wide search efforts for the child… An estimated 140 RCMP vehicles, with an estimated 200+ armed RCMP agents, their Helicopters, Surveillance Units, Drones, a Mobile Command Unit including the RCMP Tactical Team (Emergency Response Unit deployed in acts of terrorism) convoyed 3 hours, descending upon Universal Ostrich Farms. What mission is more important than searching for a missing 5yr old boy? What warrants this over investigating and dismantling terrorist networks? Or stopping the flow of deadly fentanyl, drug trafficking or human smugglers?  Even investigating crimes against humanity, or... Hunting down sexual predators? (By their very actions, words and deeds, to these members of the RCMP, it's more important to support a W.H.O. proclamation pushed by Canada's deep state and kill these birds...)  Along a scenic highway inside the Rocky Mountain interior this week, dozens of law enforcement began terrorizing the Grandmother, her daughter Katie Pasitney, and co-owner David Belinski.   The government agents swarmed the farm, locking down airspace and planting themselves firmly on private property setting up to eviscerate 400 healthy ostriches with 230 healthy days of herd immunity.  The antibodies produced by the eggs of these very ostriches have been clinically proven across numerous studies from the USA to Kyoto University in Japan, to prevent or heal humans from various strains of flu, from COVID itself, plus provide a natural diet alternative to Big Pharma's Ozempic...and perhaps might potentially heal cancer. 

Two five-year-old twins were found locked in a dark shed off of a busy Florida highway—malnourished, abandoned, and left with nothing but fear.

In episode 306 of The Just Checking In Podcast we checked in for a third time with journalist James Bloodworth. James Bloodworth is a New Statesman columnist and the author of three books: his seminal book ‘Hired', the first book he wrote was called ‘The Myth of Meritocracy', which we discussed in-depth in his first JCIP and his third book, the critically acclaimed ‘Lost Boys: A Personal Journey Through The Manosphere', was published in June 2025. James first came on the pod in February 2021 in JCIP #69, over four years ago now, when we were all in the throes of the Covid-19 pandemic. He then came back on in January 2023 in JCIP #165, where we discussed the grief of losing his Grandmother in 2022 and the huge impact it had on him, the anxiety he had during the pandemic and his decision to come off ADHD medication, which he discovered was having a negative impact on his mental health. In this episode, we do a deep dive into Lost Boys through a mental health lens, what he wanted to achieve with the book, going undercover in male pick-up artist groups, what he learned about these men through being in these groups, and a healthy debate on Jordan Peterson. As always, #itsokaytovent You can purchase a copy of Lost Boys here: https://www.amazon.co.uk/Lost-Boys-Undercover-Adventures-Masculinity-ebook/dp/B0DCDSLY5K?ref_=ast_author_mpb You can listen to Part 1 and 2 of James's journey below: Part 1: https://soundcloud.com/venthelpuk/jcip-69-james-bloodworth Part 2: https://soundcloud.com/venthelpuk/jcip-165-james-bloodworth-part-2 You can follow James on social media below: Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/james.bloodworth/ Support Us: Patreon: www.patreon.com/venthelpuk PayPal: paypal.me/freddiec1994?country.x=GB&locale.x=en_GB Merchandise: www.redbubble.com/people/VentUK/shop Music: @patawawa - Strange: www.youtube.com/watch?v=d70wfeJSEvk

Born to a mother who was only 14 and raised by her grandparents in Venezuela, Mia often felt like an outsider, questioning her place in the world. Astrology became the way she found her footing, transforming uncertainty into purpose. Mia shares the wisdom she learned from her grandmother, talks about leaving Venezuela to move to Miami, and the surprising path from criminology and forensic law to becoming a leading voice in Kabbalistic Astrology. Together, they explore how to tell the difference between fear and intuition, the evolution of astrology in our modern world (yes, even Taylor Swift comes up), and how to lean into discomfort as a catalyst for growth.

Get ready for an incredible journey through children's literature that will inspire, educate, and warm your heart! In this episode of Reading with Your Kids, host Jed Doherty sits down with three remarkable authors who are changing the landscape of children's books one page at a time. First up is Wunneanatsu Lamb Cason, who shares the magical story behind "Grandmother Moon," a beautiful picture book that bridges generations and cultural understanding. Inspired by her own grandmother's teachings, Wunneanatsu creates a touching narrative that celebrates indigenous storytelling and the powerful bond between grandparents and grandchildren. Next, we dive into historical fiction with Darlene Campos and her middle-grade novel "The Center of the Earth." This eye-opening book explores the little-known story of Jewish refugees who found safety in Ecuador during the Holocaust. Campos brings history to life through the eyes of young characters, proving that children's literature can be both educational and deeply moving. Rounding out the episode is Jessica Marie, the creative mind behind the "Mess Monster" series. With humor and heart, Bell tackles relatable childhood experiences, showing kids that it's okay to be a little messy and imperfect. What makes this episode truly special is the authors' shared commitment to representation, empathy, and storytelling. They demonstrate how children's books can be powerful tools for understanding different cultures, experiences, and perspectives. Whether it's exploring indigenous traditions, uncovering hidden historical narratives, or simply making kids laugh, these authors prove that children's literature is about so much more than just entertainment. Parents, educators, and book lovers will walk away feeling inspired and excited about the incredible stories being told for young readers today. It's a reminder that every book is a potential window into another world, another experience, another way of understanding.

His interactions with the animals wasn't only unique and intriguing, but I found a sense of calm come over me. Plume was lucky enough to have been surrounded by women all of his life. These same women are a big part of how and why he's on this journey now.  I'm so happy we were able to have a conversation, not only about his new bond with his animal audience, but he's also lending a different perspective on life and what's important. My guest's videos have a very calming effect on his audience. Yet, in seeing how the animals interact with Plume brings a smile to my face and a more human perspective to the magic of the beautiful four and two legged creatures he interacts with.Currently, Valerie, Plume's mother, is part of his production crew, as his camera-woman. She has always been very supportive of his work.His maternal grandmother, Paule and her three sisters helped raise Plume since a child.  Paule is still very present in his life today. She plays the piano and has a wonderful sense of humor and attitude about life. And we also had an opportunity to hear about Elsa, Plume's girlfriend, who Plume says is a constant source of support and love. As a creative, Plume says "it can be hard to believe in yourself and in what you're doing," and Elsa has always been there to encourage him.Growing up in France, Plume was introduced to cows nearby to his grandmother's home. HIs grandmother's sister, who knew the cows the best, reassured him at a young age, that they were friendly, kind and curious.One of the more rare and distinct animals that Plume has encountered is an okapi. An okapi is not a true "mix" of animals but is the only living relative of the giraffe.I thoroughly enjoyed meeting my guest and sharing his story of bountiful love and support from the many important women in his life. And my guest is also very gracious and sincere when he says he's so fortunate to get get the opportunity to share his love of music with these beautiful creatures in the preserves and his human audience around the world wide. SOCIAL MEDIA LINKS:IG: Plumesofficiel       FB:Plumes "Should Have Listened To My Mother" is an ongoing conversation about mothers/female role models and the roles they play in our lives.

September brings us Grandparents Day. Recently, I read some thoughts from, "Grandparents with Love and Logic," by Foster W Klein and Jim Fay. These thoughts are worth sharing about grandparenting in today's world. "Today, grandparents tend to move toward the 21st Century with images of grandparents past: silver haired, slow talking, slow moving people biding their time in wooden rocking chairs on the front porch, contemplating the sunset through wire rimmed spectacles. They smile crinkly smiles and take out their teeth at night. Grandmothers crochet booties and make cookies while grandfathers whittle wooden treasures with jack knives. Their grandchildren walk over from across town, sit on the porch with them, admire the carving and munch on the cookies." Each of us carries variations of their picture created in our own childhood. As we set zoom feature on our cameras to grandparenting present, we realize with shock how much the picture has changed. We travel around the world instead of crochet, or play golf instead of whittle. Some become grandparents long before they are ready for rocking chairs. Many of the grandchildren live half a continent away or wear strange, baggy clothes and radical color combinations and pierce their ears. 94% of older adults with children in the US have grandchildren. Half of these are great grandparents. Of the 54 million grandparents in the US, 26% are younger than age 55 only 38% are in their retirement years, over 65. The average grandparents has three or four grandchildren. Grandparents are living longer. From 1940 to 1980 the life expectation for a 40 year old woman increased by seven years, and the life expectancy of a 40 year old man by four years. What do these numbers mean? Grandparents are more important than ever. More adults than ever are living long enough to get to know their grandchildren and for their grandchildren to get to know them. The increase in longevity is giving their relationships the potential to become stronger and longer lasting. Children close to at least one grandparent are more emotionally secure than those without such a tie. Grandparents can provide this emotional security by listening, truly, listening to their grandchildren, refusing to compete in the acquisition of material possessions, giving their most valuable gift: time. More heart to heart thoughts: Parents need to understand that the grandparent's role is sacred to the child, and they should do whatever they can to enhance that relationship. Kornhaber. Grandparents can do more for us than anyone else in the world. They sprinkle stardust in our eyes. Alex Haley.

When Donna Adelson was convicted for murder & conspiracy murder of FSU law professor Dan Markel, the 75 year old Grandmother disruptive the court with her emotional looking outburst that Judge Everett threaten to remove her from the courtroom. Eagle eyed viewers noticed that although Donna's face was filled with upset - there were few tears. If Donna Adelson wasn't really crying- why couldn't she control herself in the courtroom.

This is the All Local 12PM update for Friday, September 5th, 2025.

Last year, after our True Crime Tuesday segment aired on KOIN's AM Extra, we received an email from the family of Alana Carroll- a woman whose story we had featured. Melissa, Alana's Aunt, along with Joyce, Alana's Grandmother, wanted to share Alana's story. For someone who didn't know Alana, her disappearance can be easily ignored, forgotten, or dismissed. As is the case with anyone who disappears or is murdered, there is so much more to the story and person. Alana wasn't disposable. She wasn't a junkie who no one loved. She was a daughter, a sister, a mother, a friend. And this August will mark two years since she was last seen alive. Her family is desperate for answers…and they hope you can help find their beloved Alana.For photos of Alana, the car accident she survived and what her body went through, visit our blog at murderintherain.comCourt records: Witnesses say man called ‘freaking out' with missing woman's body - Missing Clark County woman now presumed dead, investigators have identified a suspect - The Columbian - https://wsp.wa.gov/wp-content/uploads/2024/01/Alana-Carroll.pdf - Clark County deputies confirm death of woman missing since 2023 - Alana Ranae Carroll – The Charley Project - Missing woman Alana Carroll presumed dead in Clark County - BeenVerified - Alana Carroll - Illegal substances are part of addiction problem in Oregon, but alcohol is biggest killer - OPB - Opioid Data | Washington State Department of Health - FindAGrave.com - The Columbian - Oct. 3 2000- Obituary - Been Verified Court Cases - BG man arrested for weapons, heroin possession | The Reflector - The Daily Astorian - Nov 29 1982- Marijuana Seized  - The Columbian - June 30 1992 - Editorial - The Columbian - July 24 1992 - Editorial - Longview Daily News - May 27 2011 - Police Blotter -BG man arrested for weapons, heroin possession | The Reflector -The Columbian Nov 29 1982- Bust (PHOTO) - The Columbian Jan 20 1983 - Family pleads guilty to selling marijuana - The Columbian Feb 25 1983 - Kidnapped boy pleads guilty - The Columbian March 31 1983 - Courts - The Columbian June 4 2008 - Suspected heroin dealer arrested in Battle Ground - BeenVerified.com - Luke A.

Women were prosecuted for experiencing miscarriage or stillbirth even before the Supreme Court swept away the protections of Roe v. Wade. But these prosecutions have ramped up since, in both red and blue states. The stakes are ramping up too, with legislators introducing bills that would treat abortion as homicide, potentially subjecting patients to the death penalty. This week, Mark Joseph Stern talks with Karen Thompson, the legal director of Pregnancy Justice. They discuss what happens when the state decides a fetus, or even an embryo, has equal or greater rights than pregnant people. As fetal personhood legislation moves ahead in more and more red states, this concept is also seeping into the law in blue states. Women have been jailed because their pregnancies ended in a way the state disliked. Grandmothers have been prosecuted decades after pregnancy loss thanks to investigators using forensic genetic genealogy to hunt them down. As Thompson explains, a frightening frontier in the battle for bodily autonomy and reproductive rights is here, and it demands our attention.    Learn more about your ad choices.
