    Text Our Show HostsTonight, we're talking about weather-related disasters like the ones we're experiencing right now in the US. Specifically... Flash Floods. Now, you all seen floods right? But have you seen a Flash Flood…?Flooding is an overflowing of water onto land that is normally dry. Floods can happen for many reasons including heavy rains, rough oceans and seas, Spring thaws and melting snow , or even when dams or levees break. A damaging flood may happen with only a few inches of water, or it may cover the rooftops of houses. Floods can occur within minutes or over a long period, and may last days, weeks, or longer. Floods are the most common and widespread of all weather-related natural disasters.Flash floods, on the other hand, are the most dangerous kinds of floods, because they combine the destructive power of a flood with the incredible speed and strength of moving water and debris. Flash floods occur when heavy rainfall exceeds the ability of the ground to absorb it. They can happen within minutes, the cause and effects of distant rainfall, limiting the time available to warn and protect the public.More than 3,000 flash flood warnings have been issued in the United States so far this year — the highest number on record.Hurricane season in the Atlantic officially runs from June 1st to November 30th. The peak of the season, when the most activity occurs, is typically from mid-August to late October.Now, is the time to get prepped for floods and flash floods, if you haven't already.Let's talk about that…Visit HoneyComb Holler on YouTubeTOPSBunker.comPlease Visit Our Affiliate Links to Find Great Preparedness Products:Flood Survival Handbook PaperbackQuick Dam Emergency Flood Kit 10 Pack BucketPIG Water Socks to Mitigate Flood Water 6 PackWater Rescue Quick Deploy Throw Bag with High-Vis RingOS LED Boat Flares Super Bright 2 PackEmergency Glass Break & Seat Belt Cutter 2 PackSAFEHAMMER Glass Break Escape Tool 3 Pack w/accessoriesLuxoGear Emergency Whistle 120 dB w/Lanyard 2 PackArcturus HD Survival Blanket Insulated Thermal LargeSofirn SC31 Pro 2000 Flashlight Waterproof IPX8 RechargeableRaynic Emergency Radio w/NOAA Weather Alert LCD DisplayLIFESTRAW Go Series 1L Water Filter Bottle for Travel @ EmergencyMusic: The Talbott Brothers "The Comng Days"Support the show

    Send us a textWhat happens when a dedicated educator from rural Virginia relocates to Hurricane, Utah and decides to run for city council? Cindy Matejka brings a refreshingly balanced perspective to one of Southern Utah's fastest-growing communities.Having worked for Sesame Street developing internet safety programs and taught middle school for years, Matejka's journey to Hurricane was sparked by the challenges of COVID-19 and a desire to find a community with conservative Christian values. What her family discovered was a welcoming small town that her teenage son immediately recognized as "what I've waited all my life for" - but also a place experiencing growing pains as development rapidly transforms the landscape.Matejka articulates the central tension facing Hurricane with remarkable clarity: how to achieve necessary economic growth without overwhelming longtime residents who cherish the city's rural character. She advocates for a measured approach to development, suggesting alternative funding mechanisms like government bonds and grants rather than relying solely on building permits and new construction. Her concerns about infrastructure, particularly traffic congestion on SR-9 and the limited police force (just three officers per shift), demonstrate her practical understanding of growth's real-world impacts.What sets Matejka apart is her commitment to learning and listening. Whether attending planning commission meetings to understand proposed developments, completing a police ride-along to see public safety challenges firsthand, or reaching out directly to the mayor with neighborhood concerns, she embodies the "lifelong learner" mindset she cultivates in her students. This approach extends to her campaign style, where she avoids negativity and focuses on substantive issues despite the sometimes contentious social media environment.For Hurricane voters seeking a thoughtful voice who can bridge divides between newcomers and longtime residents, Matejka offers a unique combination of fresh perspective and deep respect for community values. Listen to her full conversation to understand why this teacher believes city council is her next classroom.Timestamps:[00:00:00] Intro[00:01:36] Cindy Matejka's Journey to Hurricane[00:06:15] From Teaching to City Council[00:10:40] Finding Balance in Community Growth[00:19:48] Infrastructure and Public Safety[00:26:23] Election Tensions and Final Thoughts

    It wasn't long ago that both heads of state and prominent policymakers could speak seriously about a world without nuclear weapons. But in the course of just a few years, nuclear concerns have come back in force. Arms control has broken down almost entirely. China has started a massive expansion of its arsenal, putting basic assumptions about deterrence in doubt. Vladimir Putin has threatened nuclear use in Ukraine—threats that were taken very seriously by American officials. And proliferation risks have grown, with regard to both American adversaries like Iran and American allies in Europe and Asia who may no longer trust security commitments from the United States. Vipin Narang and Pranay Vaddi until recently oversaw nuclear policy in the Pentagon and on the National Security Council. In a new essay for Foreign Affairs, they call the situation nothing short of a “Category 5 hurricane.” And for the United States, that means putting nuclear strategy back at the center of foreign policy. Editor-at-large Hugh Eakin spoke with Narang and Vaddi about this changing nuclear landscape and what the United States must do to survive this new nuclear age.

    fWotD Episode 2995: Hurricane Claudette (2003) Welcome to featured Wiki of the Day, your daily dose of knowledge from Wikipedia's finest articles.The featured article for Thursday, 17 July 2025, is Hurricane Claudette (2003).Hurricane Claudette was a moderately strong tropical cyclone that struck South Texas in July 2003. A fairly long-lived July Atlantic hurricane, Claudette was the fourth depression, third tropical storm and first hurricane of the 2003 Atlantic hurricane season. Claudette began as a tropical wave in the eastern Caribbean. It moved quickly westward, brushing past the Yucatán Peninsula before moving northwestward through the Gulf of Mexico. Claudette remained a tropical storm until just before making landfall in Port O'Connor, Texas, when it quickly strengthened to a strong Category 1 hurricane on the Saffir-Simpson Hurricane Scale. Forecasting of its path and intensity was uncertain throughout its lifetime, resulting in widespread and often unnecessary preparations along its path.Claudette was the first hurricane to make landfall in July in the United States since Hurricane Danny in the 1997 season. The hurricane caused two deaths and moderate damage in Texas, mostly from strong winds, as well as extensive beach erosion. Because of the damage, President George W. Bush declared portions of South Texas a Federal Disaster Area, allowing the affected citizens to apply for aid. Claudette also caused significant rainfall and minor damage in the Mexican state of Quintana Roo as a tropical storm, as well as minor damage on Saint Lucia before developing into a tropical cyclone.This recording reflects the Wikipedia text as of 00:59 UTC on Thursday, 17 July 2025.For the full current version of the article, see Hurricane Claudette (2003) on Wikipedia.This podcast uses content from Wikipedia under the Creative Commons Attribution-ShareAlike License.Visit our archives at wikioftheday.com and subscribe to stay updated on new episodes.Follow us on Mastodon at @wikioftheday@masto.ai.Also check out Curmudgeon's Corner, a current events podcast.Until next time, I'm standard Kendra.

    Television Star That Was A Police Detective. Rod Demery may be best known to television audiences as the star of Murder Chose Me, the gripping true-crime docuseries that aired on Investigation Discovery. But long before he became a media personality, Demery was a decorated homicide detective who had lived, and investigated, some of the most painful crimes imaginable. Now, he shares his story on the Law Enforcement Talk Radio Show and Podcast, available on Apple, Spotify, Facebook, Instagram, and other major social media and podcast platforms. The episode is also promoted across their Facebook , Instagram , LinkedIn , Medium and other social media platforms. “Murder didn't just happen to be my job, it chose me,” said Demery. “It shaped who I became, both as a man and as a detective.” This episode of The Law Enforcement Talk Radio Show and Podcast now streaming for free on their website, in addition to Apple Podcasts, Spotify, and most major social podcast platforms. Demery's background is as complex as any case he's worked on. A veteran of the United States Navy who served in Operations Desert Shield and Desert Storm, he transitioned from military police to civilian law enforcement with a determination fueled by a tragic childhood. When he was only three years old, his mother was murdered, a trauma that would alter the course of his life. Look for supporting stories about this and much more from Law Enforcement Talk Radio Show and Podcast in platforms like Medium , Blogspot and Linkedin . Years later, while serving with the Shreveport Police Department in Louisiana, Demery would revisit that unsolved case and track down his mother's killer. As if that personal tragedy wasn't enough, Demery's brother was later convicted of murder and sentenced to life in prison. These painful personal experiences gave Demery a rare dual perspective, one that allowed him to empathize not only with victims' families but also with suspects. “I could still see my brother as a kid, playing with GI Joes,” he told CrimeFeed. “Even after what he had done, I could see both sides. That's what made me different.” Available for free on their website and streaming on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, and other podcast platforms. That difference translated into results. As a homicide detective in Shreveport, Demery worked more than 250 murder cases and was the lead investigator on over 60, solving nearly every single one. Most notably, he boasted a 99% confession rate. “It wasn't about tricking them. I talked to them like human beings. I didn't judge them,” he said on the podcast. “That openness, that humanity, is what got them to talk.” Now the Chief of Police at Grambling State University, Demery continues to serve his community. He's S.W.A.T. certified, an experienced hostage negotiator, and a published author. His books, Things My Daughters Need to Know and No Place for Race, are highly praised for their personal depth and social insight. The Law Enforcement Talk Radio Show and Podcast episode is available for free on their website , Apple Podcasts , Spotify and most major podcast platforms. Television gave Demery a platform to share his approach with the world. In Murder Chose Me, viewers watched as he solved real-life cases, using a combination of empathy, interrogation skills, and deep personal intuition. The show was praised not only for its dramatic storytelling but for highlighting the real emotional cost of violent crime, both to families and to those tasked with solving it. “Season three had some personal cases,” Demery shared. “It forced me to re-evaluate myself, in some ways, I became more human.” In addition to his work on Murder Chose Me, Demery co-hosts Unearthed: Ancient Murder Mysteries with Professor Turi King. The show, produced by Curiosity and Off the Fence, applies modern forensic science to ancient murder cases, blending history and cutting-edge technology. But even as his career soared, the emotional toll remained heavy. Demery has been open about the price he paid in his personal life. You can listen to his stories and interview on our website for free in addition to platforms like Apple Podcasts and Spotify, and other major podcast platforms. “It became an obsession,” he admitted. “If someone got shot, that always took priority. I've had girlfriends ask me if they had to die to get my attention.” Today, Demery says he's working on finding a healthier balance between his personal and professional life. He also continues to run Demery Enterprises, a personal security company that provides services to NBA players and high-profile individuals. Demery's journey, from the child of a murdered mother to one of the most successful homicide detectives in America, is a powerful reminder of how tragedy can be transformed into purpose. His story resonates far beyond the walls of a police department or the screen of a television. “Murder chose me,” Demery said once again, with quiet conviction. “But I chose to do something with it.” To hear the full conversation with Rod Demery, tune in to the Law Enforcement Talk Radio Show and Podcast, now streaming for free on their website also on Apple, Spotify, Facebook, Instagram and other major platforms.

Rather than blindly follow influencers like Jordan Peterson and Andrew Tate who may resemble more the mixed bag stereotype of Samson we've been taught, Dr. Anderson teaches that Christian young men should see the Biblical Samson himself as a better role model.Dr. Owen Anderson:Dr. Owen Anderson's personal website [media appearances]Christ the King Reformed ChurchArizona State University profileDr. A's SubstackDr. Owen Anderson's YouTube channelFox and Friends interview about DEI lawsuit with ASUNewsmax Carl Higbie FRONTLINE interview about DEI lawsuit with ASURobert Kiyosaki interview on The Rich Dad Radio Show about free speech (March 1, 2023)Robert Kiyosaki interview on The Rich Dad Radio Show about free speech (July 26, 2023)Dr. Owen Anderson on PragerU's The Book Club with Michael KnowlesPragerU 5-minute video: The Beginning of WisdomDr. Owen Anderson's Amazon Author page*** Please contribute to the Hurricane relief fund for A.M.

    Police Death By Their Own Hand: A Father

    Police Death By Their Own Hand: A Father's Story and Crusade. The tragedy of losing a child is one no parent should ever endure. But for Brian Sizemore, that pain is now a daily reality, and a lifelong mission. His son, Lucas Henry Sizemore, was just 24 years old when he died by suicide. A newly sworn Atlanta City Police Officer, Lucas had recently graduated from the police academy and was serving proudly in Zone 4 Evening Watch. His passing sent shockwaves through the department, his community, and especially his grieving family. This episode of The Law Enforcement Talk Radio Show and Podcast now streaming for free on their website, in addition to Apple Podcasts, Spotify, and most major social podcast platforms. “Our hearts are broken, but God is helping us understand and get through each day,” Brian said. “You are loved by so many and will be missed every second of every day for the rest of all of our lives.” The episode is also promoted across their Facebook , Instagram , LinkedIn , Medium and other social media platforms. Lucas's story is one of promise, service, and deep personal struggle. A graduate of Eastern Michigan University, Lucas had interned with Homeland Security Investigations in Detroit before following his passion for law enforcement to Atlanta. Beyond the badge, he was a vibrant young man who loved the outdoors, he camped, hunted, and enjoyed motorcycle rides. Music was a huge part of his life; he was a frequent concert-goer and loved playing guitar. He also deeply cherished his family and his dogs. Look for supporting stories about this and much more from Law Enforcement Talk Radio Show and Podcast in platforms like Medium , Blogspot and Linkedin . His death on January 9th devastated those closest to him. Brian and Marie Sizemore, Lucas's parents, are still trying to process the unimaginable. “The devastation we feel, my wife, myself, and Lucas's brother Evan, is still as raw as it was that day,” Brian explained. Police Death By Their Own Hand: A Father's Story and Crusade. But out of their grief has come a powerful mission: Lucas's Crusade. A Father's Crusade Determined that their son's death not be in vain, Brian and Marie launched LUCAS, an acronym for Law Enforcement's United Crusade Against Suicide. The foundation's goal is to raise awareness about suicide among police officers and push for stronger mental health resources within departments across the country. Available for free on their website and streaming on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, and other podcast platforms “We will do our best to honor you and help all of your fellow officers,” Brian said. “You do your part, watch over and protect every one of them.” In the U.S., police officers are more likely to die by suicide than in the line of duty. The issue remains one of the most under-addressed mental health crises in law enforcement. Through Lucas's Crusade, Brian has become a voice for those who suffer in silence, and a beacon for families enduring the same pain. Police Death By Their Own Hand: A Father's Story and Crusade. The Atlanta Police Department (APD) responded to Lucas's death with overwhelming compassion. A full honorable funeral and discharge ceremony were arranged to bring him home to Michigan, where he was cremated at Molnar Funeral Homes, Brownstown Chapel. The tribute was not only heartfelt but also a reflection of how deeply Lucas was loved within the department. The Law Enforcement Talk Radio Show and Podcast episode is available for free on their website , Apple Podcasts , Spotify and most major podcast platforms. “In his time with the department, he dedicated himself to serving and protecting our community,” the APD shared in a Facebook post. “Lucas was not just one of us, he was family.” A Life Remembered Lucas's memory is cherished by many: his parents Brian and Marie, his brother Evan, his fiancée, and extended family including grandparents, aunts, uncles, and cousins. His death is a painful reminder of the human cost behind the badge, and the pressing need for change. Police Death By Their Own Hand: A Father's Story and Crusade. You can listen to his stories and interview on our website for free in addition to platforms like Apple Podcasts and Spotify, and other major podcast platforms. “We are broken, but we are not defeated,” Brian said during an interview featured in a Podcast on Apple, Spotify, and other social media platforms. “Lucas's life had meaning, and his story will help save others.” The Lucas Foundation urges supporters to donate to the Atlanta Police Foundation, Officer Emergency Fund. Contributions in memory of Lucas are encouraged and will go toward helping officers in crisis. As Brian often says in interviews on LinkedIn, Instagram, and across social channels: “This is not just about one life lost. It's about preventing the next.” A Call to Action The silence around police death by their own hand must end. Lucas's story is just one of many, yet it has become a rallying cry thanks to a grieving father's determination. Through Facebook, Instagram, LinkedIn, and an expanding presence in news, podcasts, and social media, Lucas's Crusade is spreading awareness and changing lives. The full podcast episode is streaming now on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, and across Facebook, Instagram, and LinkedIn. To learn more or support the mission, search Lucas Crusade online or follow their journey across platforms. Every voice raised can save a life. Every share can spark a conversation. And every donation helps a hero find help before it's too late. Police Death By Their Own Hand: A Father's Story and Crusade. In Loving Memory of Officer Lucas Henry Sizemore

    Iowa Lottery Fraud Which Led to Arrests and a Book. The story sounds like something out of a true crime documentary or Hollywood Crime Drama: cyber crime, deception, a mysterious offshore trust, and even Bigfoot hunting. But this wasn't fiction, it was real life in Iowa. And it led to one of the most shocking lottery fraud cases in U.S. history, resulting in arrests, a best-selling book, international news headlines, and millions in stolen winnings. The episode is also promoted across their Facebook , Instagram , LinkedIn , Medium and other social media platforms. At the center of the storm was Terry Rich, the former President and CEO of the Iowa Lottery. Under his leadership, the organization uncovered a plot so bizarre and calculated that it threatened to undermine the entire $80 billion lottery industry. This episode of The Law Enforcement Talk Radio Show and Podcast now streaming for free on their website, in addition to Apple Podcasts, Spotify, and most major social podcast platforms. “It was like nothing we had ever seen before,” said Rich in a recent interview. “We were dealing with someone on the inside who had found a way to game a system designed to be foolproof.” The scandal began to unravel in 2010 when a $14.3 million Hot Lotto jackpot went unclaimed for nearly a year. Eventually, a mysterious attempt to claim the prize emerged, through an anonymous trust in Belize. Suspicious of the secrecy, Rich and the Iowa Lottery refused to pay out. Iowa Lottery Fraud Which Led to Arrests and a Book. Look for supporting stories about this and much more from Law Enforcement Talk Radio Show and Podcast in platforms like Medium , Blogspot and Linkedin . “We had one simple rule: if we don't know who's behind the claim, we don't pay,” Rich explained. That decision kicked off a decade-long investigation, filled with twists and turns that investigators and journalists alike have described as “unbelievable.” Surveillance footage from a convenience store eventually led to the arrest of the primary suspect, the former information security director at the Multi-State Lottery Association (MUSL). Available for free on their website and streaming on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, and other podcast platforms He used his privileged access to install a rootkit, a hidden piece of software, on the computer that generated winning numbers for the Hot Lotto game. This allowed him to predict and rig lottery outcomes in multiple states including Iowa, Colorado, Wisconsin, Kansas, and Oklahoma. In 2015, the primary suspect was convicted on two counts of fraud for attempting to claim the Hot Lotto prize. He was sentenced to 10 years in prison and later received a 25-year sentence for broader conspiracy charges. However, he was released on parole in 2022 after serving just five years. Iowa Lottery Fraud Which Led to Arrests and a Book. The Law Enforcement Talk Radio Show and Podcast episode is available for free on their website , Apple Podcasts , Spotify and most major podcast platforms. But the thief didn't act alone. The scandal, now dubbed “The Hot Lotto Fraud”, eventually exposed a network of co-conspirators including his brother, a former Texas Justice of the Peace, and a Texas businessman. All were involved in a scheme that dated back as far as 2005 and exploited specific calendar dates to produce predictable winning numbers. “They figured out how to rig a random number generator,” said veteran journalist Perry Beeman, who co-authored the book The $80 Billion Gamble with Rich. “It was the perfect crime, until it wasn't.” You can listen to his stories and interview on our website for free in addition to platforms like Apple Podcasts and Spotify, and other major podcast platforms. Their book, which is now available wherever books are sold, takes readers deep inside the case using court documents, phone calls, emails, and public records. It's part true crime, part white-collar investigation, and fully jaw-dropping. “We wrote the book not just to tell the story,” said Beeman, “but to show how transparency and relentless pursuit of the truth led to justice.” The full podcast episode is streaming now on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, and across Facebook, Instagram, and LinkedIn. The story gained national attention, appearing in media outlets like CNN, CBS, 20/20, and The New York Times. Terry Rich also shared insights on various social media platforms, speaking candidly about the challenges his team faced. Iowa Lottery Fraud Which Led to Arrests and a Book. “When you realize someone on the inside is stealing from the public, it shakes your foundation,” Rich said in one Instagram video. “But we were committed to getting it right.” Following the scandal, Hot Lotto was discontinued in 2017, replaced by Lotto America. A subsequent lawsuit even saw a legitimate winner suing for damages after the jackpot he won had been reset due to the thieves' earlier rigged win. That case settled out of court in 2019. While the thieves crime stunned the country, Rich's role in uncovering it cemented his legacy. During his 25-year career, he not only led the Iowa Lottery to increase sales and profits by 50%, but also turned the Blank Park Zoo around financially and launched four successful businesses. His diverse career includes appearances on Johnny Carson's Tonight Show, executive roles in TV production, and creating other tv content. Be sure to follow the Law Enforcement Talk Radi Show on their website also promoted across their Facebook , Instagram , LinkedIn , Medium and other platforms. “I've always believed in integrity, whether it's in business, media, or government,” Rich said. “That belief is what guided us through this entire ordeal.” Today, Rich continues to share the story through keynote speeches, podcasts, and online content, hoping to inspire a new generation of leaders to put honesty and public trust above all. The Iowa Lottery, which has raised more than $2 billion for state programs since its launch in 1985, continues to be a key player in national lotteries like Powerball, Mega Millions, and others. In fact, the largest prize ever won in Iowa came in October 2018, when one ticket claimed $343.9 million. Iowa Lottery Fraud Which Led to Arrests and a Book. The full podcast episode is streaming now on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, and across Facebook, Instagram, and LinkedIn. As Rich puts it: “The lottery is about hope, dreams, and fairness.
