Andrew "Rube" and William "Bill" Foster were half-brothers born in Calvert, Texas, 25 years apart. Rube (b. 1879) left home in the late 90s to pitch for barnstorming teams deep into the late teens. He established his name as a top pitcher in the circuit as well as a savvy businessman. In 1920, he organized the Negro National League, the first and leading organized Black baseball league. Bill (b. 1904) left the South in 1918 to look for work and play baseball and after catching on with the Memphis team in the NNL, eventually landed on his older brother's Chicago American Giants. He is regarded as the best left-handed pitcher in the Negro Leagues. He pitched the American Giants to titles in 1926 and 1927, then was the winning pitcher in the first East-West All-Star Game in 1933. Both brothers were inducted into the Baseball Hall of Fame posthumously.Rube Foster on Seamheads, SABRBill Foster on Seamheads, SABRRobert Charles Cottrell, "The Best Pitcher in Baseball: The Life of Rube Foster, Negro League Giant (New York University Press, 2004).Errata: Henry Mathewson had zero wins in his big league career, not one.Please consider supporting Hooks & Runs by purchasing books, including those featured in this episode (if any were), through our store at Bookshop.org.

Cam Cooksey takes Flow into its 18th episode with a mix of humor, community, and cultural reflection. After some playful banter about “Pastor Yoda” memes and Disney's fall into woke propaganda, Cam shouts out fellow Badlands creators, including Jackie's Hooks and Harmony show and Abby Blue Eyes' powerful “PsyWar” video. The conversation digs into how propaganda shapes culture, from Star Wars to political narratives, and why awareness is the best defense in today's information war. Cam highlights Brad Zerbo's Codex 9/11 film screenings, sharing how the documentary serves as a “nuclear weapon in the info war” and urging the community to support it. Between sponsor shoutouts, plumbing mishap stories, and open-line call-ins, the episode blends laughs, faith, and reflection with practical reminders about unity, sovereignty, and God's role in guiding truth seekers. It's vintage Flow—lighthearted yet anchored in purpose.

Learn how video marketing can scale your B2B business beyond seven figures Let me tell you something, video marketing isn't just about creating content—it's about strategically combining AI-generated hooks that stop people dead in their tracks with authentic human storytelling that builds the know, like, and trust factor. This formula is what separates the businesses scaling predictably from those burning cash on ads that nobody watches past the first three seconds. When you nail this approach on platforms like YouTube, you're not just capturing eyeballs—you're reaching B2B buyers with genuine intent who are actively looking for solutions to their problems. Talking with Aleric Heck, CEO of AdOutreach, and this guy is the real deal. He started on YouTube 14 years ago, built the largest app review channel with 500k+ subscribers, and now at 26 has an 8-figure company. He's personally spent over $7.5 million on YouTube ads, helped clients generate multiple 9 figures in revenue, and landed AdOutreach at #87 on the Inc 5000 fastest-growing companies list. What I love about Aleric is he actually walks his own walk—he's built his entire reputation practicing what he preaches and has the results to prove every strategy he teaches actually works. KEY TAKEAWAYS: How to target B2B decision-makers on YouTube using intent-based keywords and top 10% household income filters instead of wasting money on random eyeballs. What the 2-3 minute ad structure looks like: 8-30 second AI hook, 1-2 minutes of educational value, then a natural call to action that flows from your teaching. Why YouTube outperforms Meta for B2B sales—people have sound on, they're in learning mode, and you get multiple minutes to build trust instead of hoping they don't scroll past. How to use AI tools like Veo to create attention-grabbing hooks while keeping yourself as the human expert who actually closes the deal. What your real conversion metrics should be—reverse engineer from your desired cost per client backwards to your allowable cost per click, not just vanity metrics. Why your silent YouTube viewers who never engage are often your highest-value prospects quietly evaluating you against competitors in their buying process. How to create video conversion trainings that turn ad clicks into booked calls by delivering massive upfront value that naturally leads to strategy sessions. What brand recall tracking reveals about your true ROI—measuring direct website visits plus branded Google searches shows the real impact beyond direct ad conversions. Growing your business is hard, but it doesn't have to be. In this podcast, we will be discussing top level strategies for both growing and expanding your business beyond seven figures. The show will feature a mix of pure content and expert interviews to present key concepts and fundamental topics in a variety of different formats. We believe that this format will enable our listeners to learn the most from the show, implement more in their businesses, and get real value out of the podcast. Enjoy the show.

Bill Bevens came within one out of throwing the first World Series no-hitter in Game 4.  Also, a look at the pennant and wild card races plus some 1988 Topps baseball cards.Errata: The Giants were 14-14 in August, 9-15 in July. In the second half so far, Texas is 24-19, Seattle is 22-21 and Houston is 20-23. San Diego went 23-43 after the All-Star Break in 2021 and for some reason Craig thinks they collapse like this every year. San Diego was 43-20 in the second half in 2024. Pete Reiser won the NL batting title in 1941, not 1945. Craig was thinking of Mickey Mahler when he should have been thinking of Mike Mason. Wade Boggs played 5 seasons for the Yankees before going to Tampa; he also admitted to drinking 73 beers on a flight, not 57. Clint Hurdle turned down a football scholarship to the University of Miami, but he turned it down to sign with the Royals. Please consider supporting Hooks & Runs by purchasing books, including those featured in this episode (if any were), through our store at Bookshop.org.

‘80s metal luminaries The Rods are back with Wild Dogs Unchained, a new album that combines reimagined classics from their past with masterfully crafted new songs.Hooks, grooves, crafty, formidable, and rebellious are songwriting attributes that The Rods gladly embrace. On Wild Dogs Unchained, the veteran power trio continues their famed aural assault with songs like “Eyes of a Dreamer” and “Tears for the Innocent,” revealing heretofore unrealized musical melodicism, while re-tooled classics, “Hurricane” and “Wild Dogs Unchained,” percolate with renewed vigor. On Wild Dogs Unchained, the playing is harder, the grooving is heavier, and the singing more soulful than ever before. David “Rock” Feinstein (guitar/vocals), Freddy Villano (bass), and Carl Canedy (drums) have crafted a definitive Rods album aimed at pleasing die-hard fans and new audiences alike. Once again mixed and mastered by Chris Collier, Wild Dogs Unchained flexes considerable musical muscle and builds upon the ironclad sonic template that these three musicians have forged over recent years. Not content to rest on their laurels or their legacy, The Rods are getting tighter, more nuanced, and perhaps even more bludgeoning with age. As Derric Miller at hardrockhaven.net said, “The Rods just pummel you. There's an insane energy coming from this band.”TRACK BY TRACK: EYES OF A DREAMER, David FeinsteinThis song is about people wanting to fulfill their dreams; never to worry how big your dreams are, or how hard it may be to achieve them. Even through tough times, be persistent and continue with determination to make your dreams in life reality. ROCK AND ROLL FEVER, David FeinsteinThis song is about musicians who are strong-willed and live for their music. Music to these individuals, as well as fans, becomes like a drug to them. It's an addiction. It makes you feel good making the music and listening to the music. It makes the fans feel good, as well as the performers playing the music. Everybody's got the “fever.” MIRROR MIRROR, David FeinsteinThis song is about looking at yourself. What do you think of yourself? What kind of person do you think you are? What kind of person should you be? Look in the mirror, “Are you evil or divine?” TEARS FOR THE INNOCENT, David FeinsteinThis song is about senseless war, and the innocent people that die because of it. We cry for those innocent people and feel sorry for what they have lost. Their homes, their land, their lives. WILD DOGS UNCHAINED David FeinsteinCarl Canedy is the writer of this particular song, but I think I can speak for him in saying that this song is about fighting to be free. It pertains to all people. Fight for your freedom. TIME TO ROCK, David FeinsteinFor a rock musician, it is always “Time to Rock.” It's anticipating an event or concert that you will be playing at. The excitement, the lights, the electrify in the air. It's always a rush when it's “Time to Rock.” RUN RUN RUN, David FeinsteinThis song is about being free. Casting your fate to the wind. More like a biker anthem. A feeling that I think most of us would like to feel sometime. To know the feeling of what it's like to really be free. WORLD ON FIRE, David FeinsteinInspired by the state that our world is in right now. Wars, hunger, homelessness. It's about having faith that our world will get better and asking, “What can we do to help make that happen?” MAKE ME A BELIEVER, David FeinsteinThis song is about perseverance. No matter how hard things get in life, to stand up and do what is needed to make things better. To be a believer and to always fight for what is right.  HURRICANE, David FeinsteinThis song is about a car called “Hurricane” owned by an eager person who is possessed with the idea that his car is the best, fastest car on the street. “Hurricane” is always ready for a challenge.Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-adventures-of-pipeman--941822/support.Click Here to Subscribe for PERKS, BONUS Content & FREE GIVEWAYS!Follow @pipemanradio on all socials & Pipeman Radio Requests & Info at www.linktr.ee/pipemanradioStream The Adventures of Pipeman daily & live Mondays, Tuesdays, Wednesdays at 1PM ET on W4CY Radio & Talk 4 TV. Download, Rate & Review the Podcast at The Adventures of Pipeman, Pipeman Radio, Talk 4 Media, iHeartRadio, Apple Podcasts, YouTube & All Podcast Apps.

One of the biggest reasons why people aren't consuming your content is because they don't find it relevant. And the things that people find relevant are the things that create these automatic triggers inside of their subconscious. Things like emotions, curiosity, or identities, or  big realizations, that's the stuff that gets the clicks and most people don't know how to do that. Last week we did a whole episode on four different hooks that you can use to start getting people to take the automatic reactions and clicks and actions you want them to take. This week, listen and discover how to effectively use these hooks in various contexts such as ads, emails, webinars, and call-to-actions to create impactful messaging that drives actionable responses. Discover how to use them in every part of your communication from content creation to teaching to pitching and how that can get you the best traction. Ready to create content that converts?

Die Refrains der Neuseeländischen Indie-Band sind so ansteckend, man möchte die Pandemie ausrufen. Wenn das Quartett den knackigen Riffs diesen typisch vierstimmigen Gesang entgegenschmeisst gehen auch auf dem 4. Album die Regenbogen auf - trotz niederschmetternder Diagnose für Sängerin Liz Stokes. «Straight Line Was A Lie» entstand nach der Feststellung einer Autoimmunerkrankung und diverser Lebensumstellungen für deren Behandlung. Dazu gehören auch Antidepressiva, welche die Wahrnehung und das Gehirn von Stokes spürbar veränderten. Das neue Album ist für sie eine Art Erfahrungsprotokoll: «Was wollte mir mein Gehirn über die letzten zwei Jahre sagen?» Körper und Geist stehen denn auch im Zentrum dieses bittersüssen Wurfs. Liz Stokes inszeniert ihren wunderschönen neuseeländischen Akzent einmal mehr betörend, wenn auch etwas ruhiger und nachdenklicher als auf den Power-Pop-getränkten Vorgängern. Aber wie das Konzept des Albums ja so schön aufgreift: Das Leben wird zwar nicht einfacher, aber spannender, wenn es nicht schnurgerade verläuft.

Varsity bass fishing hooks Vermont high school students

You've heard me say it for years, more information doesn't drive sales. So what does? Well, it's all about the hooks—the language and communication that drive people into action.  Today on the podcast, I break down four different hooks you can start using immediately to get your audience to act. Listen in to explore how buying decisions are emotionally and subconsciously driven, and why understanding this is key to driving conversions. I'll even introduce you to four types of hooks (Identity, Curiosity, Emotional, and Realization) and show you how to implement them in your content to drive action every single time. Whether it's in your business, funnel ads, or emails, these hooks will change the game.  Ready to create content that converts? I'll show you how for just $17!

“As I was reading Hooks and Freire, a colleague recommended Adrian Rich's essay "Teaching Language in Open Admissions." It was in that essay that I first read about her experiences teaching at CUNY during open admissions, learning that she taught alongside June Jordan, Audre Lorde, and Toni Cade Bambara. Eventually, that essay led me to their archival teaching materials. I was really excited because I found in those materials concrete teaching methods, things they were doing in their own classrooms that I then started trying in my classrooms as well. I also really liked their educational philosophies, thinking about what it means for college to be free and the fact that they were teaching during this revolutionary era. What would that look like today? What would it mean? What could free college bring to our society? What does free college make possible? All of those things coming together led me to the project.”In this episode of the Speaking Out of Place podcast, Professor David Palumbo-Liu talks with Danica Savonick about her marvelous book entitled Open Admissions: The Poetics and Pedagogy of Toni Cade Bambara, June Jordan, Audre Lorde, and Adrienne Rich in the Era of Free College. This is a riveting and deeply inspiring story of how each of these luminaries in the fields of literature and feminism found their way into the City University of New York in the 1960s, when community activists had forced open what was called the Harvard for the proletariat to admit new classes of Black, brown, and other people of color. Savonick shows through copious archival research how Bambara, Jordan, Lorde, and Rich each came to find radical teaching methods in collaboration with these new students, and how their experiences with this new pedagogy affected their creative and other writing in profound and lasting ways. This is a critical history we can and must learn from today, when federal and state governments have added to the damage and violence done by the neoliberal university. We find exactly the tools and models we need to create spaces for education for liberation both within, but also outside, the Academy.Danica Savonick is an Associate Professor of English at SUNY Cortland. Her current project focuses on the radical writers and artists who taught at the experimental Livingston College (part of Rutgers University) in the 1970s.

Racing the Shadows – CH Hooks on Can't Shake the Dust In this compelling episode of Read Between the Lines, host Molly Southgate sits down with acclaimed author C.H. Hooks to talk about his powerful new novel, Can't Shake the Dust. The story follows “Little” Bill Lemon III as he struggles to outrun a family legacy filled with hardship, violence, and resilience. From the gritty cages of The Monkey Palace—his grandfather's rough-and-tumble bar—to the questionable ventures of his parents, Little finds his escape on the dirt track every Saturday night. In a car that barely runs, he races not just for victory, but for redemption in the backroads of the South. Hooks masterfully captures the weight of legacy, poverty, and perseverance in a world where there's never enough—money, opportunity, or even soap to wash away the Georgia red dirt. With its heart-pounding scenes and unflinching truths, Can't Shake the Dust is a southern tale you won't forget.

When Briar Roberts started reading towing-themed books to his young children, something unexpected happened – he got mad. As an experienced tow truck operator, the technical inaccuracies in these stories were glaring. Hooks attached to plastic bumpers? Cables through windows? This wasn't the profession he knew and loved.What began as bedtime frustration transformed into inspiration when his wife suggested a simple solution: "Why don't you write one?" So, Roberts penned what would become "Chuck the Little Tow Truck," a children's book that finally represents the towing industry with technical accuracy while delivering heartwarming messages about perseverance, mentorship, and safety.During this captivating conversation with hosts DJ Harrington, April and Wes Wilburn, Roberts reveals the surprisingly swift writing process  and the more challenging journey through illustration and self-publishing. Working with South American illustrator Eduardo Posh, Roberts meticulously ensured every visual detail accurately reflected proper towing techniques – from correct vehicle recovery positions to the inclusion of specialized equipment like spreader bars and snatch blocks.Beyond technical precision, "Chuck the Little Tow Truck" embeds critical safety messaging about slowing down and moving over for roadside workers – education that could potentially save lives by reaching children and parents simultaneously. The story itself follows a small tow truck with big dreams, teaching valuable lessons about knowing your capabilities and recognizing when to ask for help.Now available on Amazon, Barnes & Noble, and Walmart, this first installment in a planned series represents more than just a children's book – it's an industry veteran's contribution to accurate representation and safety education. For towers who visit schools with their trucks or want to share their profession with the next generation, Roberts has created the perfect companion piece that respects and celebrates the skilled work of towing professionals.Ready to support this industry-changing project? Visit your preferred bookseller to purchase "Chuck the Little Tow Truck" today, or contact Roberts directly at robertsbriar91@gmail.com to arrange bulk orders for schools, events, or industry promotion.
