With the June primary approaching, plenty of attention has been focused on the race for mayor. But there's an important and highly competitive contest on the undercard: the race for City Comptroller. What does the comptroller do and why should New Yorkers care? NY1's Errol Louis decided to talk more about the job with two former comptrollers who were major players in New York's political arena — Liz Holtzman and Bill Thompson. A former congresswoman and district attorney, Holtzman served as a city comptroller from 1990 to 1993, while Thompson held the job from 2002 to 2009. They discussed the qualities voters should look for in the next comptroller, emphasizing the need for intelligence, honesty, experience and innovation. Both guests also reflected on their biggest achievements. Join the conversation, weigh in on X using the hashtag #NY1YouDecide or give us a call at 212-379-3440 and leave a message.

This week on the podcast, I'm joined by Bill Thompson from Spartan Forge for a deep dive into the evolving strategies of deer hunting and the tools that make it possible. We're talking about ditching the treestand for the ground, the mobility it brings, and how it allows you to stalk smarter, not harder. Bill breaks down how understanding terrain, wind patterns, and using cutting-edge tech like Spartan Forge can completely reshape your approach. We also dig into the parallels between hunting and military tactics—think shaping the battlefield and controlling variables to stack the odds in your favor. Bill shares his personal journey from military service to leading a business in the hunting industry, and how the lessons he learned on the battlefield translate to the whitetail woods. But this episode isn't just about gear and strategy. We tackle the sometimes harsh dynamics within the hunting community and the importance of empathy and building each other up. Plus, Bill and I talk about journaling hunts, learning from failures, and why staying grounded—literally and figuratively—is the key to long-term success. This is an episode packed with real talk, practical tips, and plenty of inspiration to fuel your season.

From Battlefield to Whitetails: The Journey of Bill Thompson & Spartan Forge In this Team Never Quit episode, Marcus and Meanie sit down with Bill Thompson, founder of Spartan Forge, to explore his incredible journey from serving on the frontlines to revolutionizing the way hunters pursue whitetails. Bill, who grew up in rural North Dakota, has always been passionate about the outdoors and hunting, especially the pursuit of mature whitetails with a bow. His 22 years of service in the military, particularly his time in Iraq, helped shape the foundation for Spartan Forge—a cutting-edge hunting app that applies military intelligence techniques to deer hunting. Bill shares how the concept for Spartan Forge came to him in 2010, inspired by the "Find, Fix, Finish" targeting cycle used in military operations. He realized the similarities between tracking enemy targets and pursuing trophy whitetails, and Spartan Forge was born out of this unique combination of experiences. Now, with Spartan Forge, hunters can automate the intelligence-gathering process to increase their chances of success in the field, no matter their goals. Tune in to hear Bill's story of how his love for hunting, combined with his military background, led to the creation of an invaluable tool for hunters everywhere.

(2:34) • I was in the Southern Philippines. One of the mayors was having a dinner. They were mourning the loss of their dog that this guy had forever. We ate the dog. (7:48) • I joined the military because I was trying to get out of North Dakota. (11:27) • Do the work, and then enjoy stuff later. (13:02) • I did signals intelligence and then transitioned into computers. Think of it as ethical hacking. (22:16) • I got to contribute to the targeting cycle in a real meaningful way. (26:38) • In the beginning, you may not be doing what you signed up for. And I didn't for the first six years. But eventually I got to do everything and more than ever thought. (32:49) • The whole trajectory of my life and reason why I'm sitting here with you guys today is because I forgot my driver's license. (38:15) • [Spartan Forge] it's built around mapping. But it does journaling. We've got a feature in it called Blue Force Tracker where you can share pins and locations with your buddies. There's a predictive artificial intelligence that does animal movement. (40:44) • My framework is: Are we embolding the autonomy of the individual? Are we giving them something that is actually useful at a price point that they can afford? Are we elevating the experience of the individual? (46:34) • That ability for people to be like “I can do this on my own”. I can do this. (59:46) • What are the elements that are gonna contribute to the success or the failure of this?

IT'S HERE: Pre-Order Joel's Book: Https://amzn.to/48GwbLx#STSNation, Welcome to another episode of Surviving The Survivor, the podcast that brings you the #BestGuests in all of True Crime… Great Scott! It's time for your true crime “Fil” …with Fil and Scott. A show so good, it happens live every Friday… A polling team hired by Bryan Kohberger's defense has been spreading false information that he stalked one of the four murder victims in the case, a prosecutor has said in court. During a heated court exchange on Wednesday, Dr. Bryan Edelman, who supervised a phone poll of 400 potential jurors in an Idaho county for the defense, agreed that one of the questions asked if potential jurors had read, seen or heard that Kohberger stalked one of the victims. "That Mr. Kohberger allegedly stalked one of the victims, that's false...You knew that to be false?" asked the prosecutor, Bill Thompson. "I did," replied Edelman. #BestGuests: America's most respected Detective Fil Waters spent decades in the law enforcement world becoming an expert at obtaining criminal confessions. He spent 23 years working as a homicide detective in the Houston Police Department investigating more than 400 homicide cases, including one that took the life of his good friend and fellow police officer. Detective Waters is also a Marine and the owner of Kindred Spirits Investigations. He also starred in the show “The Interrogator”. Agent Scott Duffey is Director of Wilmington University's Criminal Justice Institute. Scott is a retired FBI supervisory Special Agent of the Wilmington, Delaware Resident Agency. He worked violent crime matters, gangs, bank robberies and Fugitive task force cases for 20 years before being promoted supervisor of the violent crime task force in Wilmington, Delaware Prior to FBI, served 5 1/2 years as a Pennsylvania police officer #KansasCity #Chiefs #NFL #NFLPlayoffs #Frozen #Murder #TrueCrime #TrueCrimeCommunity #JenniferDulos #JenniferFarberDulos #FotisDulos #MichelleTroconis #TrueCrime #TrueCrimeCommunity #Connecticut #Murder #TrueCrime #TrueCrimeCommunity #Idaho4 #BryanKohberger #AnaWalshe #DomesticViolence #truecrime #alexmurdaugh #murdaugh #truestory #truecrimecommunity #news #podcast #murdermystery #trial #crime_news #jury #southcarolina #LoriVallowDaybell #LoriVallow #DoomsdayMom #DoomsdayMother #Boise #TJ #Tylee #TrueCrime #TrueCrimeCommunity #LoriVallowTrial #LoriVallowDaybellTriaL
Today's crossword was Bill Thompson's 10th NYTimes publication, and based on this, we can't wait for his 11th. The theme was extremely clever, and there were OCEANS of great clues, including 55D, "Gee, I wish I was back in the _______" (song from "White Christmas"), ARMY; an APPLEBETTY alternative, perhaps, 30D, Linzer _________ (pastry); and 42D, 1965 film starring George Segal that was set in a P.O.W. camp, KINGRAT.So, even though this crossword was a tad crunchier than usual, we found it adorbs, most definitely worthy of a full 5 squares on the JAMCR scale.Show note imagery: Mel TORME, no relation whatsoever to his daughter Marissa TOMEI.Contact Info:We love listener mail!
