Is playing an extremely tough regular-season schedule a good idea in the era of a 12-team College Football Playoff, or is it akin to shooting yourself in the foot? Well, we are about to find out this year given Ohio State's brutal slate that includes three teams widely ranked within the top-5 nationally (Texas, Indiana, Oregon), plus three other squads that are expected to be ranked (USC, Michigan, Iowa). The season will serve as a referendum of sorts on tough schedules, at least from the Buckeyes' point of view.Also, Dave Biddle and Dan Rubin react to Phil Steele's Big Ten standings predictions, and talk about the recruiting hot streak the Buckeyes are on.That and much more is coming your way on the Monday 5ish.

In this episode we dive into Iowa football news, including the Hawkeyes' representatives for Big Ten Media Days in Chicago and new College Football '27 player ratings featuring Pieper as the game's top center. They discuss Bennett Stirtz being drafted 16th overall, compare NFL rookie signing bonuses to their own scholarship-check days, and plug early-season betting lines for Iowa's opener and the Cy-Hawk game. The conversation shifts to whether Iowa should keep playing Iowa State annually, emphasizing tradition, adversity, and statewide importance. They preview sponsors and a forthcoming Iowa State Fair partnership, share fair “must-dos,” and close with thoughts on the new five-seasons-of-eligibility rule and a teased attempt to book CJ Beathard for episode 700.

Iowa Scholarship Win_ For free and unbiased Medicare help, dial (724) 264-8281 to speak with my trusted partner, Chapter, or go to https://askchapter.org/roland *Paid Partnership*_ Karmelo's Defense attorneys rested their case today without calling him to testify.Closing arguments are scheduled to begin on Tuesday before the case is eventually handed to the jury for deliberations. Legal Analyst Thelma Anderson will breakdown what happened in the courtroom. A scholarship designed to support Black students pursuing careers in chemistry and the physical sciences is at the center of a recent Iowa Supreme Court decision. For now, the decision blocks the University of Iowa's attempt to change the eligibility criteria for this privately funded award. We'll speak with one of the attorneys involved in the case. The Marshall Project reported at least 47 suicides in solitary confinement across Mississippi prisons between 2015 and 2025. We'll discuss this troubling pattern with one of the reporters who discovered that many inmates had previously requested mental health assistance, only to be placed in restrictive housing instead of receiving the care they needed. Once again, Trump insulted a black female reporter. We'll show you the exchange that made the twice-impeached, criminally convicted felon-in-chief, Donald "The Con" Trump abruptly end the interview with NBC's Meet The Press Moderator, Kristen Welker.

In the first decades of the twentieth century, saloon proprietor Erastus Wallace Scott of Des Moines―with his cousins in the infamous Carter Gang―operated a campaign of murder, fraud, corruption, and prostitution from his bar on East Court Avenue. In 1908, the local paper denounced the neighborhood as “given up almost entirely to houses of prostitution. At one end stands a notorious saloon, the scene of many crimes, even murders, and for years a harbor for criminals and a plotting place for the evil minded." That reviled enterprise was none other than Scott's seedy shack of sin. Initially, Scott gained the most notoriety, due to a slaying, numerous assaults, and sex trade associated with his establishment. But a subsequent murder brought cousin Will to the forefront. A land fraud scheme involving all three Carter brothers followed, including grand theft and even more deaths. Authors David and Rose Donovan, authors of  The Nastiest Saloon in Iowa: Murder, Prostitution, and Corruption in the Heartland, recount the long-forgotten story of a crime family's nefarious reach beyond the red-light district.

Prediction markets aren't new. Election betting was common until the 1940s, then mysteriously faded away.There was an entire political era when party bosses were expected to conspicuously gamble on their candidates (even if they secretly hedged).And in the 1980s, a few economists designed an election market that beat out election polling 74 percent of the time.Today, we're running an excerpt from our friends at Throughline, NPR's excellent history podcast.

I've known Josie Manternach since she was roughly in first grade, and I still learned things about her in this conversation that I didn't know. Josie is an educator by trade, a military spouse, a mom, and now a community impact leader at the Community Foundation of Greater Dubuque. But the path that got her there? It's the kind of story that is going to hit differently depending on where you are right now, whether you're holding tightly to a plan that's starting to unravel, or you're on the other side of a pivot wondering how all the pieces are going to fit together. She grew up in Cascade, fell in love with the ag room at Cascade High School, went to Iowa State to become an ag teacher, and had what she thought was her whole life figured out. Then came a retirement, a once-in-a-lifetime job offer, a Navy JAG program acceptance, a cross-country move, a pandemic, a baby, a thesis, and eventually... a path back home that looked different from the one she'd imagined. Every single step of it makes sense when you hear her tell it. What You'll Hear in This Episode: How the ag room at Cascade High School shaped Josie's entire career trajectory (and why belonging matters more than we think) The once-in-a-lifetime job offer that arrived at the exact same moment as her husband's Navy JAG acceptance What it felt like to leave the dream job she thought she'd retire from...at age 24 Life as a military spouse: navigating DC, Florida, a pandemic, a newborn, and starting over more than once How she learned to build community from scratch in places where she didn't know anyone Teaching middle school science in Maryland, working in higher ed in Florida, and what each season taught her Completing a master's thesis through Ohio State while working full time and raising a toddler Her current work at the Community Foundation of Greater Dubuque: dyslexia tutoring, rural teacher retention, third grade literacy, and the grad partnership initiative The stat that stopped me cold: 47 students now receiving dyslexia tutoring weekly in Dubuque...where two years ago there were zero local options Resources and Links: Community Foundation of Greater Dubuque: dbqfoundation.org Rural Teacher Summit: coming this summer at Camp Little Cloud in Epworth Contact Josie directly through the Community Foundation website Listen and Subscribe: Spotify Apple Podcasts If Josie's story resonated with you, share it with someone who is in the middle of a plan that just got disrupted.

On today's episode, we are breaking down the 2026 state legislative season and how the landscape affecting nonprofit advocacy is shifting across the country. We are recording this in mid-June, and while most states have wrapped up for the year, not all have, so you are going to want to look at your state to get a sense of what's enacted, what's moving, and what's dead. What we're seeing this year is not just incremental change, but a rapid expansion of state-level regulation over campaign finance, ballot measures, voter access, and increasingly, what we are calling foreign influence laws or national security-style frameworks applied to civil society.   Attorneys for this episode Maggie Ellinger-Locke Susan Finkle Sourlis Natalie Ossenfort   Shownotes Overview ·      This year, 46 states plus DC held legislative sessions. ·      We tracked roughly 1,000 bills that could impact nonprofit advocacy. ·      Of those bills that have now become law, almost half relate to state campaign finance and / or ballot measure processes. ·      Perhaps the biggest story of the 2026 legislative session is the expansion of laws that borrow concepts from national security and apply them to nonprofit advocacy. New Campaign Finance Laws ·      Louisiana increased the threshold triggering disclosure for certain campaign contributions. ·      West Virginia now not only prevents the public disclosure of certain contributor information, but also created a new criminal penalty for violations of the disclosure prohibition. ·      Kansas eliminated the requirement for political committees to disclose the names of vendors when reporting disbursements New Ballot Measure Procedures ·      Ballot measure legislation accounted for 20% of the bills we monitored, about 350 pieces of legislation. Here, we saw 22 laws enacted across 13 states plus DC. ·      Both Wisconsin and Utah now require signature gatherers to be at least 18 y.o. ·      New York now requires legislators to draft questions at an 8th grade reading level or below, and Maryland did something similar. ·      South Dakota eliminated the requirement to place ballot measures on a separate ballot from candidate elections. ·      In Missouri, voters will decide this August whether to approve a change to that state's ballot measure procedures. Currently, in order to pass, measures need a simple statewide majority, but under Amendment 4, a majority in all eight of the state's congressional districts would be required. New Lobbying and Ethics Laws ·      This type of legislation constituted about 13% of all bills we tracked. ·      In Minnesota, certain lobbying communications conveyed to the public must now include a disclaimer to identify the lobbying principal, who is responsible for the communication. Laws Related to Law Enforcement Presence at the Polls and Voting ·      Legislation was enacted in California, Maryland, New Mexico, and Connecticut to restrict law enforcement presence at the polls. ·      The new Connecticut law also removed the statutory list of reasons required to vote absentee, effectively allowing no-excuse absentee voting. It also permits 17-year-olds who will be 18 by election day to vote early or by absentee ballot. ·      Kansas moved up the deadline for early voting. ·      Mississippi now requires ballot counting to be finalized on the night of the election.[SS1] [ME2]  Foreign Influence Laws ·      We made note of 89 such bills filed across 26 states and 12 laws enacted across seven states. ·      Florida enacted a domestic terrorist organization (DTO) designation framework that will allow the state to designate certain groups as terrorist organizations and then criminalize any support those groups receive from that point forward. ·      In Indiana, a new law authorizes the designation of domestic groups and individuals as "affiliates" of federally designated foreign terrorist organizations. The same law creates new investigatory powers for the state AG. ·      Other foreign influence laws we saw enacted this session come out of Alabama, Iowa, Nebraska, and Oklahoma, all of which seek to curb the flow of money into elections from overseas. Takeaways & Reminders ·      Many of the most significant experiments in regulating nonprofit advocacy are now occurring at the state level. ·      Compliance teams should continue to update and refine their review processes to ensure any obligations that could be triggered by state-specific rules are being met. ·      Remember that states differ on when and whether a ballot measure committee must register, what counts as a contribution or expenditure, when disclaimers are required, and what donor disclosure rules apply. These rules are in active evolution. ·      When it comes to foreign influence or terrorist designation laws, states are increasingly willing to experiment with new regulatory frameworks. ·      It is critical to stay informed about developments in your state and remain vigilant to ensure your nonprofit is flexing its advocacy might to the fullest extent possible under the law.

Joe Rodriguez sits down with Randy Moore and Tracy Young, to work through the week's hardest stories. Let the spicy takes flow! Reimbursement: UnitedHealthcare stops paying for physical status. Oklahoma and Louisiana fight back with legislation. Tracy makes the case that anesthesia has been commoditized, and that hospital subsidies taught payers they never have to pay full price. Private equity: California and Oregon pass laws to curb PE in medicine. Tracy argues we legislate against bad actors instead of punishing them. Randy defends consolidation, then explains why the Oregon deal was a playbook of what not to do. And the line nobody else will say: hospitals don't fire anesthesia groups that are doing a good job. Workforce: AA bills fail in Iowa and Minnesota. Joe argues the entire AA strategy asks the wrong question. Tracy disagrees with both hosts and predicts a sorted market: CRNA-centric facilities on one side, MD and AA medical-direction models on the other, driven by math, not preference. Plus: why anesthesia companies obsessed with growth keep losing contracts, and why CRNA residents work full-time hours unpaid while physician residents draw a salary. Takeaways: Hospital subsidies are functioning as a defacto safety net for the entire industry. They are the mechanism that lets payers keep cutting. Every subsidy dollar confirms someone else will cover the gap. Differentiation in anesthesia is no longer simply price. It is recruiting and retention, full stop. Culture is the product. Hospitals don't replace groups that are performing. If a contract gets shopped, there was a problem, whatever the press release says. Growth without product is a failure of leadership. The large groups losing contracts did it to themselves. The workforce will sort itself in the next decade. The average anesthesiologist is 55. CRNA graduation just crossed 3,000 for the first time.  Profit motive is not a disease. Imbalance is. Everyone you've ever hired has a profit motive, including you. Want more Dr. Joe Rodriguez?

Mendenhall, a medical anthropologist at Georgetown University, did what she always does. She started asking questions. Over months, she interviewed neighbors, former classmates, and local officials, including her own brother in law who helped lead the local COVID response. The result became Unmasked, a case study in how community identity, economics, and politics shaped public health decisions in real time. That work led directly into her latest book, Invisible Illness: A History, from Hysteria to Long COVID, where she tracks a much older problem. Patients with chronic illness, especially women, often fail to meet medicine's demand for proof. Without a clear diagnosis, they lose access to care, insurance coverage, and legitimacy. Mendenhall argues that long COVID did not create this failure. It exposed it.This conversation centers on how healthcare systems reward certainty and punish complexity. Long COVID clinics send patients to 17 specialists without resolution. Insurance structures require diagnoses that many conditions cannot provide. Medical training still struggles to integrate trauma, mental health, and chronic disease into a coherent model of care.Mendenhall brings lived experience into the conversation. After COVID, she dealt with months of fatigue and escalating anxiety that altered her baseline health. She does not claim the label of long COVID, but she understands how quickly the system becomes harder to navigate once symptoms stop fitting clean categories. The stakes are not theoretical. In the United States, access to healthcare, disability benefits, and treatment still depends on whether a condition can be measured, coded, and reimbursed. For millions living with invisible illness, the burden of proof becomes the illness itself.RELATED LINKSEmily MendenhallInvisible Illness: A History, from Hysteria to Long COVIDScience PoliticsGeorgetown UniversityFEEDBACKLike this episode?

Double Tap - Ep 467 This episode of Double Tap is brought to you by: Foxtrot Mike (Code: WLSISLIFE) Rost Martin (Code: WLSISLIFE) Night Fision (Code: WLSISLIFE) Flatline Fiber Co (Code: WLS15) Bowers Group (Code: WLS) Text Dear WLS or Reviews +1 743 500 2171 Public   Show Titles   GOA GOALS Aug 1-2 in Iowa. https://goals.goa.org/ DEAR WLS Question from Anonymous Coward Jon Follow up: (original question) Hey guys wanted to ask you a question regarding hunting, do you think I should get a 22 air rifle (small game) and a crossbow (big game) to cover my hunting needs on both areas or is there a caliber that you guys can recommend that would do both? Thanks and love the showMore details: I'm not a felon, I was wanting to have weapons that don't require gunpowder to use to provide for the family in the event of a shtf. Small game would be squirrels and chipmunks, big game would be big mule deer in NH Question from Joe J from South Dakota Dear wls, I am a little bit behind, but I just listened to episode double tap 445. You all are talking about flannel camarado and Jeremy says he could shear sheep and make his own cloth. As someone with family in the shearing industry, shearing is a lot of work. Joe J Question from Bill from Texas Bill Texas.Question for Jeremy. In an Ar -15 platform. Hunting deer and hogs mainly. What caliber would you recommend? 300 BLK or is there something better? I figure the longest shot would be no longer than 350 yds. Ps. I am a pretty pretty princess. Clip that. LOL Question from Agent Dusky from Florida Hello WLS. We meat again. I was testing some Copper Monolithic ammunition through a new firearm the other day when I glanced at one of the steel targets and had me a few thoughts. Do you think that it would be deemed safer or possibly more hazardous to shoot steel plates with copper rounds opposed to using standard lead ammunition? My first thoughts were that copper being harder could cause larger particles created that may have more energy. Though, being less dense, it would likely lose that energy faster. Do you think the safe shooting distance away from steel with handguns shooting copper mono is any more or less distance than when using lead? Also, when it comes to centerfire rifle rounds – do you think the same concept would apply?(probably right…?) Also would copper mono rounds from a rifle be more likely to damage steel plates than with lead, given the same or similar velocity and attributes? Thank you for your time. As you were. – Agent Dusky of the Mosquito County Militia. Hashtaggery 171 22lr SSB – Question from Liam from VT Dear WLS, my question is I want to get a revolver for CCW. Colt, Smith, Ruger? For caliber I was thinking 357/38 in a 2” barrel, your thoughts? I want it to be easy to conceal. I have striker fired and really want a revolver so no strikers please. Thanks ya goons.

REVIEWS Review: Peter Gesinnia from Texas WLS Review from Peter Gesinnia 5 squares. Bang Ranking anything based on looks in a podcast is stupid as fuck, but octa-GONE'l Limbaugh is golden! Review: Kyle R from Iowa Show Review5 Squares. Since my last text that started with “Dear WLS” was read as a show review I feel obligated to do one. This show is like the trucks you see pulling into your favorite KOA. Jeremy is already there setup with his mobile command trailer on his one ton diesel crew cab. Pretty sure he only got neutered because one more kid would put him in a Class A, and those would be tough to mount a belt feed on. Shawn is there with his 1/2 ton meticulously packed for efficiency. He just can't figure out why it rides like shit. It's because his 3,000 pounds of gear has it sitting on the bump stops. Nick has a hammock strung between his old school Ranger and Shawn's truck. Light, nimble, practical, and an overall durable rear end if you excuse the occasional leaks. Aaron has a Subaru Brat. Not American, not a truck, not a car, not a great camping choice, but he would die on that hill arguing all sides. In fact, I believe he forgot to ask for a jump start 6 months ago before everyone else left and is still there to this day. Savage is there in a Honda Ridgeline arguing that technically it's a truck. Nobody wants to admit he's American because we all know his loyalty belongs to somewhere on the Asian continent. Kyle R Review: Dustin from NC Dustin From NCLove the show fellas. Possibly because of the constant marketing but l have thought of the cast like Toy Story characters multiple times lately. Jeremy reminds me of Woody. Instead of saying ‘There's a snake in my boots!' when his string gets pulled it is phrases like RIVERS OF BLOOD, Pittance, Uptown Gentleman, and misc swearing. Savage is like a Speak and Spell that got dropped in the toilet so it malfunctions while reading the news stories in verbatim. Nick is Mr. Potato Head. Because he dumps everything out the rear hatch multiple times an episode. Shawn is the Barbie doll legs attached to the fishing pole because he manages to reel the cast in from segment to segment and is horrible to look at. All ribbing aside, I appreciate the time and effort put into the segments and throughly enjoy the show each week.

Iran's Strait closure, the Fauci files, JD Vance in Switzerland, and a forfeited pride night headline today's A.M. Update. Iran announces another closure of the Strait of Hormuz over the weekend, citing continued fighting in southern Lebanon, even as JD Vance meets face to face with Iranian officials including President Masoud Pezeshkian's delegation in Switzerland to hammer out the technical details of last week's memorandum of understanding. Trump tells Axios that Netanyahu owes his job to Trump's restraint and admits he has to keep him "a little bit sane," and Aaron prays for fewer casualties as the whole situation continues to look messy. Outgoing DNI Tulsi Gabbard releases a trove of documents showing Dr. Anthony Fauci briefed CIA officials in 2021 on Wuhan gain-of-function research weeks after denying funding it under oath, and says she believes a path to prosecution still exists despite his Biden-era pardon. Pennsylvania's York Revolution forfeits its own pride night game and throws several of its players under the bus in a public statement after they refused to wear rainbow-themed jerseys, a story Aaron says is even better than last week's Giants scripture-hat saga. JD Vance also goes deep on the abolitionist versus incrementalist divide inside the pro-life movement on Allie Beth Stuckey's podcast, and Aaron closes with the rabbit hole he fell into this weekend chasing a mysterious tower on the Iowa horizon: a Cold War-era AT&T Long Lines microwave relay station.

In this episode, Ben and co-host Dr. Shetal Shah sit down with three division heads, Dr. Jill Maron (Brown), Dr. Patrick McNamara (University of Iowa), and Dr. Sarah Taylor (Yale), to examine the ABP's proposed changes from the perspective of those who run major academic NICUs. From the operational and financial strain of losing an entire class of third-year fellows, to the erosion of scholarly development, dwell time, and faculty wellbeing, the conversation makes clear that the costs of this proposal go far deeper than the curriculum. How do you staff an 80-bed NICU without junior fellows? Who funds the gap? And what happens to the next generation of academic neonatologists if we train them in isolation from the very experiences that shape their identity as clinicians and scholars?Support the showAs always, feel free to send us questions, comments, or suggestions to our email: nicupodcast@gmail.com.

None of those are bad losses or surprising, but another loss to Illinois further proves what Bret Beilema is doing in there in comparison to what isn't happening in Lincoln…and that screams yet another year without a ranked victoryShow sponsored by PINNACLE BANKOur Sponsors:* Check out Hims and use my code hims.com/EARLYBREAK for a great deal: https://www.hims.com* Check out Progressive: https://www.progressive.comAdvertising Inquiries: https://redcircle.com/brandsPrivacy & Opt-Out: https://redcircle.com/privacy

This week on the Fight for Iowa Podcast, Gary Dolphin highlights a memorable finish to the Hawkeyes' track and field season at the NCAA Championships in Eugene, Oregon. Iowa qualified in nine events and brought home multiple All-America performances, led by junior thrower Ryan Johnson, who earned First Team All-America honors for the second consecutive year with a third-place finish in the hammer throw after capturing the NCAA indoor weight throw title earlier this season.Johnson joins the podcast to discuss his championship season, the family atmosphere within the program, and the impact of Head Coach Joey Woody and Associate Head Coach Ray Robinson on his development.Dolph also recaps historic performances from Iowa's men's and women's 4x400-meter relay teams. The women's quartet of Alivia Williams, Damaris Mutunga, Princess Uche and Chioma Nwachukwu shattered the school record on their way to a fifth-place All-America finish, while the men's team of David Akhalu, Zidane Brown, Tyrese Miller and Landon Fontenot raced from the 19th seed to a remarkable fifth-place finish with a season-best time.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.
