//The Wire//2300Z August 27, 2025////ROUTINE////BLUF: TWO MASS SHOOTINGS STRIKE MINNEAPOLIS. CONCERNS WITHIN TRUCKING COMMUNITY GROW AS FOCUS ON TRAFFIC INCIDENTS INCREASES.// -----BEGIN TEARLINE------HomeFront-Arkansas: A truck driver was arrested after driving the wrong way across the Memphis-Arkansas Bridge yesterday, causing a large traffic disruption. Traffic was halted for some time as the driver was detained and his semi-truck removed from the roadway.Analyst Comment: This case is interesting as this was very likely an intentional act. The driver, who was driving for Raj Transport, had to be forcibly removed from the truck's cab at gunpoint by police. There is also a bit of confusion regarding this case, as multiple individuals have been arrested under similar circumstances, with nearly the same name, over the past few weeks. Two weeks ago, another Indian driver was arrested in the same area. The driver's booking details revealed his name to be Harvinder Singh, not to be confused with the Harjinder Singh who caused the deaths of three people in Florida two weeks ago. In this case, the Arkansas Singh was highly intoxicated at the time of his arrest, with a BAC of 0.15%. So far, the wrong-way driver from yesterday has not been identified.As a brief summary, the following is a description of recent events which may be confusing due to the similarity of the names of those involved, and the circumstances of each incident:Harjinder Singh: Arrested on August 18th in California after causing the deaths of three on the Florida Turnpike.Harneet Singh: Passenger in Harjinder Singh's truck (and also his brother). Arrested on August 21st by ICE for being in the US illegally.Navjeet Singh: Arrested in Canada on August 22nd, after remaining a fugitive almost 9 months after causing a fatal crash in Manitoba.Harvinder Singh: Arrested on August 14th on I-40 near West Memphis for drunk driving.Unknown Raj Transport Driver: Arrested on August 26th after driving the wrong way on the Interstate 55 Bridge near West Memphis.Minnesota: Two mass shootings have been reported in Minneapolis over the past 24 hours. Yesterday a drive-by shooting was reported in the vicinity of Cristo Rey Jesuit High School on 4th Avenue. 1x person was killed and 6x others wounded during the attack. The suspect has not been identified and remains at large.This morning, a separate mass shooting was reported at the Annunciation Church on W 54th Street. One gunman targeted the Church during the all-school morning Mass for the Catholic School co-located with the Church. Local authorities report a total of 2x children killed, and 17x others wounded during the engagement. The suspect has been identified as Robin Westman (formerly Robert Westman), who was reported deceased at the scene.-----END TEARLINE-----Analyst Comments: At the moment, all evidence points to this Church shooting not being a random act, but a deliberate and targeted act of terrorism. A manifesto created by the murderer was posted online shortly before the attack, which (along with other content) confirms the shooter was a mentally ill transgender man who attacked his old Church.It is usually best to wait a few days for information to settle down after a major shooting. However in this case it is important to be aware that while the crime scene was still active, gun control activists were observed demonstrating at the scene, harassing parents who were trying to pick up their children from the school after the shooting. Horrific murder scenes are already a nightmare to manage...staging areas have to be established for reuniting families, media has to be kept from contaminating the crime scene, and further security concerns must be considered as well (just in case of secondary attacks). Any time a mass shooting like this occurs, it takes great skill to (on

After our conversation with today's guest, check out our thoughts on how theatre and performance spaces can work to be more inclusive and can work towards a greater focus on meeting the access needs of intersecting humans in artistic spaces. As Brian shares about his really missing out on being in those spaces, Kerry shares about others who are out there, if you know where to look as reflections following this week's guest joins us, live on location: “The broader systems and structures of our work in theatre - is now realising, in catching up essentially with the rest of us that have always had to exist in spaces as disabled humans, that actually this can allow us to think more deeply, consider things in a deeper more innovative way. And it's actually an exciting frontier, the disruption and the dismantling that access and disability causes in spaces is actually a really an exciting and innovative thing to think about artistically. I think ultimately that shift, we're at the precipice of that shift right now in the community. We're just at the beginning and it's gonna be a long journey and a long thing and many conversations from a space of listening. We're just at the start, let's put it that way,” our guest laughs. This week on Outlook we're hearing from accessibility coordinator Mandy E. MacLean, who has worked as an access practitioner in artistic and theatre settings since moving to Toronto in 2012: “We're far behind the UK and overseas in many ways, here in Toronto and in Canada…and in Ontario as a whole - it's an exciting place to be sitting in currently.” Mandy joins us from outside a deaf-led performance, in the shade on a boiling summer afternoon, to discuss how she started work as a producer focusing on access in artistic spaces, about working with young/first-time low vision and blind/disabled and trans performers, both in arts and theatre in Ontario and Manitoba including what she learned about herself and her job facilitating and producing inclusive theatre with students at the W. Ross McDonald School for the Blind. She describes what she learned from first-time performers in a drama class at the school and how she heard from them what they wanted to see in a performance of their creation and making. We talk things like integrated audio description and lighting design for theatre when considering full inclusion or sensory sensitivity as MacLean shares a bit about her own non-visible disabilities which include concussion and associated mental health (identifying as part of the Mad community) and sensory sensitivity symptoms. Mandy shares how first, as a performer, and now as facilitator of accessibility in the arts and theatre with less obvious disabilities of her own, she can be a bit under the radar in performance spaces and still approach her work from a lived experience perspective and to learn from the lived experiences others have as intersections. Also, how she invites others in such spaces to be open about their differences, both visible or non-visible, if they so choose which can diminish stigma. We also find out about her great love of dogs and the story behind naming her own (emotional support animal) cocker spaniel Mulder. *Cue X-Files music* We also learn a new word on this one, which we do every few years on this show, with the introducing of the term “dramaturg” to our ears. As dramaturg, MacLean asks: “How do we shape and hold this piece that eventually is going to be experienced by an audience?” She's sharing about her own personal curiosities exploring her own disabilities in theatrical settings and on a project she herself has in the works. Then she goes on to tell us about the Summer in the Park Festival with Crossroads Theatre she is working on as an artistic and access producer taking place over the span of three days (from August 22 to the 24th) with an opening night of free food (a community meal) and weekend brimming with performances and storytelling spaces across the three days for all ages and abilities and backgrounds - a welcoming cultural, creative, community driven event that offers a family friendly experience. “I encourage everyone to check out the Summerworks Performance Festival: https://summerworks.ca I was one of the accessibility coordinators there. If you're not able to make it out this year, I encourage you to check it out for the future. It's an awesome festival, downtown Toronto, and I also encourage you to check out the organisation I work for, Crossroads Theatre. We are excited to connect with folks at Crossroads. We wanna meet people and artists in the community that are interested in access and theatre and live performance of any shape and form and how those two things intersect.” Reach out on Insagram @crossroadstheatreto For more information on the Summer in the Park series and specifically Crossroads Theatre go here: https://www.crossroadstheatre.org
This summer is on track to being the second-worst wildfire season in Canadian history. It started earlier than usual with emergencies declared in the spring in Manitoba and Saskatchewan and is hitting locales that aren't typically fire-prone like Vancouver Island and Atlantic Canada. Meanwhile, fires from neighbouring provinces gave parts of southern Ontario some of the worst air quality in the world.So what does this mean for the Canadian summers of our childhood, spent mostly carefree and outdoors? What needs to be done for us to adapt to the prospect of more fires and heat to come — especially for kids growing up in this new reality? Denise Balkissoon, executive editor of The Narwhal, joins us to talk about how to navigate the ambient dread of our country's changing climate.Denise published a piece today about this in the Narwhal, which you can read here: www.thenarwhal.ca/seasonal-depression-summer-climate-change/For transcripts of Front Burner, please visit: https://www.cbc.ca/radio/frontburner/transcripts
On this episode of the Panoramic Outdoors Podcast, host Sheldon Grant welcomes Karlee Winkelman — a lifelong outdoorswoman, skilled angler, and rising voice in the world of outdoor media. Karlee shares the story of growing up surrounded by nature, where hunting, fishing, and spending time outside weren't just hobbies, but a way of life. From early days on the water to building her own brand behind the camera, Karlee opens up about her journey and the changing face of the outdoor community. Together, Sheldon and Karlee explore what it means to create authentic content in today's digital landscape, and how Karlee found her voice as a storyteller in the outdoor space. She talks candidly about the challenges and opportunities of being a woman in a traditionally male-dominated industry, and the importance of representation in the hunting and fishing world. The conversation dives into fishing across Manitoba — including the thrill of landing a Master Angler fish — and how both the landscape and outdoor culture have evolved over the years. From technology to social media, and from conservation to community, Karlee offers thoughtful insights on what's changing, what's worth preserving, and how new generations are redefining the outdoors. This is an honest, insightful, and inspiring episode for anyone passionate about fishing, media, and carving out your place in the wild.

She's just a girl and she's on fire She's living in a world and it's on fire. —Alicia Keys It's a slow burn summer, burn as in the wildfires ravaging communities and landscapes across Canada while 18-year-old Canadian competitive swimmer Summer McIntosh is on fire, winning multiple medals at the World Championships, and this is another mixed bag episode in mid summer on the August long weekend as we're recording it. And one of us is getting over a summer cold as we acknowledge July's Pride celebrations as the anniversary of the Americans With Disabilities Act (35 years) arrived this summer season. This week on Outlook we're starting off sharing what brother/co-host Brian learned when he researched what exactly the August 1st holiday is here in Canada are represented by, either British Columbia Day, Terry Fox Day in Manitoba (the province he was born in), Heritage Day for one province while ours (Ontario) has municipality celebrations for places like Ottawa or Guelph. After this one, we won't be live for a few weeks with an upcoming Monday where sister/co-host Kerry has a specialist appointment at a connective tissue clinic with a rheumatologist to see if there's anything new they might be able to offer to manage her changing symptoms and Brian will be recording with his band at London's local Sugar Shack Studio. We then briefly mention the serious and controversial subject matter (content warning worthy) we've got coming up on an Outlook show planned for later in the month, current scarcity mindsets with Alberta's continuing going ahead with clawbacks for anyone there applying for the new Canadian Disability Benefit, and how that compares to the province we're in, speaking of different provinces on this August Long Weekend edition of our show. Our mixed bag of topics for this Mid Summer Mixed Bag also includes our friendly sibling competitions even when it comes to why Brian doesn't get as many colds as Kerry (even though we're both immunosuppressed as transplant patients) or why Kerry's creatinine has always remained safely below 100 while Brian's has steadily remained dozens of points above it. Speaking of clinic, with Brian's recent transplant clinic visit and dispatches from the waiting room we're considering a story from CBC about piping in calming bird song sounds into hospital and clinic waiting rooms rather than the less relaxing news television programs. Then, (speaking of content warnings) we recently viewed the first episode of Season 27 of South Park “Sermon On The Mount,” and we're discussing what we miss without audio description which led us to use a Wiki Fandom site and AI chatbot for more information, the design of the characters Kerry has seen at one time and now must imagine, and the type of satire its creators harness for trolling (passing the sensors by putting little eyes on 45/47's penis and comparing him to a certain deceased Iraqi so-called “leader” South Park featured in one of Brian's most favourite earlier season episodes. Reflecting on seeing the value of spending more time with family now that he's older, (shoutout to Nefertiti Matos Olivares for gifting our family with game Herd Mentality) making for a wonderfully entertaining and enlightening family game afternoon last month - Brian also shares about a sweet and special moment recently where our niece wanted to include him by writing her name tactilely so he could feel it, by writing it on the device we have called the BrailleDoodle (a teaching tool for educators and new braille learners). And speaking of the BrailleDoodle, we're still looking for somewhere to donate one and Kerry shares about introducing our educational assistant/braille transcriber from our school days to BF Barry and guide dog Oyster a few weeks back.

Last week, Amazon announced that it will lay off all its workers at seven warehouses, fulfillment centres and sorting stations in Quebec. Almost 2000 workers will lose their jobs, 1,700 of which are permanent positions. After a two-year effort, workers at an Amazon warehouse in Laval had unionized with the Confédération des Syndicats Nationaux last May. Amazon claims that its decision to close the Quebec operations was not because of the worker's successful unionization. The union disagrees. We talk with Adam Donald King, assistant professor in the Labour Studies Program at the University of Manitoba.
It's a high-energy Friday on Right on Radio as the host welcomes listeners to the “grand illusion” and sets the table for a sweeping tour through faith, media, and geopolitics. The episode opens with the interactive Word on Word segment, comparing Luke 1:49 with Romans 14:8—listeners overwhelmingly choose Romans 14:8—and a teased clue about the next New Testament book for the returning Sunday Bible study. A dance-inducing outro track is promised to cap the show, complete with another hint for eager Bible-readers. Challenging mainstream and alternative media alike, the host argues that coordinated talking points, sentiment-tracking, and AI-driven feedback loops are used to steer public opinion and prevent unity. The conversation frames current narratives as flexible storylines that are constantly adjusted based on measured dissent, with control—rather than outcomes—presented as the primary objective of the so-called elites. From there, the lens widens to Canada, where the host describes economic decline, internal trade barriers, resource constraints, and growing separatist talk in Alberta, Saskatchewan, Manitoba, and Quebec. The discussion then shifts to the UK and Commonwealth, highlighting October timelines for central bank digital currencies, rising public resistance, and the broader struggle between central banking power and the BRICS push toward gold-backed systems. Gold signals, shifting Arctic trade routes (with Canada and Russia as key stakeholders), and an alternative to the Suez chokepoint (the proposed Ben Gurion Canal) are presented as pieces of a fast-changing global chessboard. Turning to Ukraine, the episode outlines the host's view of Russia's red lines—retaining eastern regions, rolling back NATO encroachment, and “de‑nazification”—and the claim that public messaging obscures the real stakes. The much-discussed Trump–Putin meeting is portrayed as pre-scripted, with the true agenda said to involve trade corridors, currency realignment, and dismantling the old power triad of the City of London, the Vatican, and Washington, D.C. A reported threat of a false-flag attack in Kyiv is also mentioned as part of the day's tense backdrop. The episode detours into the UFO debate as it ricochets through Congress and media: “greys,” “Nordics,” “insectoids,” and “reptilians” are reinterpreted through a spiritual lens, with the host framing them as angelic or demonic manifestations rather than extraterrestrials. This leads into a prophetic thread on the rise of “ten kings,” a brief transfer of power, and the emergence of the Antichrist—tying scriptural expectations to contemporary events and symbols, including the meeting location dubbed “Q1” on 17th Street. Throughout, the host emphasizes keeping faith centered: do not look to politicians for salvation, trust God's sovereignty, and weigh unfolding events against Scripture. Community notes include a Saturday night prayer call on Telegram and a lighthearted household saga featuring a soot-covered dog, a stubborn squirrel, and a reluctant fireplace. The show closes with a Joe Bonamassa track—“Love Ain't a Love Song”—and a final nudge for listeners to guess the next Bible study book. No guest joins this episode; instead, it's a spirited solo deep-dive with real-time audience participation, weaving together media critique, geopolitics, spiritual warfare, and practical faith.

The smoky summer of 2025 has produced a near record number of air quality alerts for Minnesota. Most of this summer smoke has drifted in from these massive Canadian wildfires where more than 16 million acres of forest has burned in Canada this year.MPR News chief meteorologist Paul Huttner talked with Matthew Taraldsen, a meteorologist with the Minnesota Pollution Control Agency (MPCA), about poor air quality and reason behind the state's smoke-filled summers.The following has been lightly edited for clarity. Listen to the full conversation by clicking the player button above or subscribe to the Climate Cast podcast. First, some good news. The smoke has drifted away, and there's the possibility of rain in some Canadian wildfire zones. Can that possibly limit our smoke over the next week or two? Yes, it definitely can. The areas that have been on fire have also been extremely dry, and so it likely isn't enough to put out the fires, but it will definitely kind of dampen down the fire activity and limit the amount of smoke that the fires do emit. This has been quite a summer when it comes to air quality alerts. How close is the state to hitting record? We've had 19 alerts this year so far. Our current record is 53, so we're not quite to record, but we're above record pace. We're higher than we were at 2023 at this point in the season. No matter how you cut it, it's a very high-impact wildfire season. Most of our smoke this year is coming from Canada. That was also the case in 2023 when over 45 million acres burned in that country. What can we say about wildfire trends in the U.S. and Canada, and smoke in Minnesota, in the past few decades? The short answers is, it's definitely on the rise. There's been plenty of research out there in the western U.S. that the wildfire trends are growing as our climate warms. In Canada, the data until last year was a little bit more ambiguous. But there's definitely a signal that what we're seeing is likely being influenced with climate change.I think what what we're seeing this year is likely still going to be an outlier. But I do think going forward, we're likely to see at least some smoke impacts every year. We've also been having volatile, organic compounds inside the smoke that have also been serving as a pretty powerful base for ozone formation and seeing higher ozone days in ways we haven't seen before. It's kind of a one-two-punch. We hear a lot about climate change and wildfires versus forest management and fire suppression. How do you extinguish fire in 1.2 billion acres of boreal forest in remote areas with few roads?You don't, is the short answer. In Minnesota, we think of the Boundary Waters Canoe Area as being remote, and it is to an extent. But Canada takes it to a whole new level.Canada has remote areas the size of the state of Texas and when you get a fire that starts there, there is no easy way to put that fire out, unless you air drop in firefighters who will then hand dig fire lines. This year, you have fires that are burning roughly the size of the state of South Carolina — think of how long it would take to hand carve fire lines around an entire U.S. state. On the other side, when those people are out, far away from civilization, if something were to happen more locally, they're no longer on the field and you have to bring them back. So they're letting them burn just because they don't have the manpower to extinguish them all. It's a multifaceted problem, but I think people lose sight of just how incredibly large this area is with no roads, no water lines, nothing out there. Your tools to control those fires are very limited. I know you're in the air quality business and not in politics, but people are complaining about forest management, both the build up of fuels by suppressing fires and the let-it-burn approach. Now people are blaming Canada for not putting out fires. So what is it?The other point is that this is not just impacting the U.S. In Flin Flon, Manitoba, the air quality last month was over 500 for the entire month. So this is impacting people in Canada as much as it's impacting people the United States, and no one's happy with it. What's your overall message to Minnesotans about our summer air quality and climate change going forward? I think the big thing to take away is to be vigilant. We've heard from a lot of people that checking the air quality has really become of part of their daily routine — just like you would check the normal weather forecast.That's probably the most prudent thing. Check the air quality, have a plan to deal with smoke, wear a mask. It will protect you. Be prepared if you are outside in the smoke, and listen to your body.

Today on the Artalogue, Canadian artist Simon Hughes chats with Madison Beale from his Winnipeg studio about his creative beginnings, Canadian art and his career. This episode is all about finding your artistic voice in unexpected places.Hughes reveals how he developed his unique approach that treats watercolors, drawings and canvas paintings as equal expressions, not relegating drawings to mere preparatory sketches. His technique of building translucent layers of color, inspired by Paul Klee, creates a distinctive visual depth that characterizes his work. From his early fascination with Hieronymus Bosch and Surrealism to his later dialogue with Canadian art history, Hughes traces the evolution of his artistic vision with refreshing candor.The conversation takes a fascinating turn when Hughes discusses his unexpected path from graduating from the University of Manitoba to working in film production between art projects, waiting eleven years before pursuing his MFA in California, and discovering surprising similarities between Winnipeg's and Southern California's art scenes. His recent exhibition "Fire, Flood and All the Feelings" at Blouin Division showcases his ability to blend contemporary suburban landscapes with spiritual elements, creating a modern counterpoint to Lawren Harris's iconic Canadian wilderness paintings.What makes this discussion particularly valuable is Hughes' practical wisdom about navigating an art career. Rather than waiting for institutional recognition, he emphasizes creating your own opportunities through community engagement and persistent creation. "Wherever you are, that's the place to be," he advises, offering a refreshing perspective on building an authentic artistic life regardless of location or circumstances.Follow Simon's work at his studio gallery space Fire Door in Winnipeg or on Instagram @simonmhughes to discover more about his artistic journey.

Ivey Gruber, President of the Michigan Talk Network, continues unpacking the narrative around the Canadian wildfires. They highlight the massive size of provinces like Manitoba, comparable to Texas in land but nowhere near in population, and expose the irrationality of demanding Canada to simply "stop the fires." The conversation points out the disconnect between environmental outrage and geographic reality.

//The Wire//2300Z August 5, 2025////ROUTINE////BLUF: DHS DELETES ISRAELI MANDATE FROM DISASTER AID CONDITIONS, NO EXPLANATION GIVEN. SECOND EARTHQUAKE STRIKES NEW YORK. CANADIAN WILDFIRES CONTINUE.// -----BEGIN TEARLINE----- -International Events-Canada: Significant wildfires continue to burn throughout Saskatchewan and Manitoba, which has prompted air quality concerns for much of the American northeast and the Great Lakes regions, due to the smoke.-HomeFront-New York: Another earthquake struck New York City earlier this morning, which reached an estimated magnitude of 2.7. No major damage was reported.Missouri: Overnight an arson attack was reported in Clayton, with multiple vehicles set on fire outside of the residence of an Israeli soldier (who is a dual citizen living in the US). Various anti-Israeli graffiti was also observed spray painted in the street at the scene.Washington D.C. - Following the fallout of yesterday's scandal, the Department of Homeland Security has re-updated their Terms and Conditions to remove the inflammatory language. No explanation was given for why the language was ever included in the first place.-----END TEARLINE-----Analyst Comments: Concerning yesterday's saga involving the DHS covertly changing their Terms and Conditions for disaster aid, the following general timeline may be helpful for understanding the sequence of events as they unfolded. This is important to document for the historical record, if nothing else, since the old version of this PDF has been deleted from public view.1. On April 18th, 2025 the Department of Homeland Security updated their Terms and Conditions that all 50 States must abide by in order to get federal aid (specifically, purchases of equipment with federal grant money).2. In these Terms and Conditions, a single line item was added, mandating that if states want FEMA grant money, they have to pledge allegiance to Israel and promise to not boycott Israeli companies.3. Nobody notices this policy change for several months.4. Yesterday morning (August 4th, 2025) Reuters finally notices this change, and pushes the news story out, as they do.5. Immediately, the reaction on social media is that this story is fake, due to how incredulous it sounds and the already poor reputation of most media groups.6. A few hours after the story went viral, the actual PDF file on the DHS website was altered and re-uploaded…with the sections pertaining to Israel missing. No outward changes were apparent on the website; the file name, version number, and upload date were all the same. However, the content was different.7. As time elapsed (and as people heard about this story), anyone who checked the DHS website after exactly 4:30pm (when the file was changed) saw the updated PDF file, which had no mention of Israel.8. This led many to think that the whole story was fake, not knowing that a change had occurred.9. Subsequent analysis of the metadata of the NEW file, and archived copies of the OLD file confirm that shenanigans are afoot, and the file was changed, last being edited by a senior attorney who works for the DHS.10. A few hours later, the DHS (speaking directly to journalists) confirmed that the policy change did occur. The DHS did not provide any explanation as to why this policy was ever in effect in the first place, or who made the decision to include this policy change.Analyst: S2A1Research: https://publish.obsidian.md/s2underground//END REPORT//
A meditation preached in the rectory of the Cathedral of the archdiocese of St. Boniface, Manitoba, August 5, 2025.The account of Jesus walking on the water (Matt 14, 22-36) frightened the apostles, as they thought that Jesus was maybe not real. He becomes all the more real now in the anniversary of the dedication of Saint Mary Major, established in 431 in honour of the council of Ephesus that stated that Mary was the mother of God. That meant he was a divine person, born of Mary, with a true human and divine nature. He was not a ghost.

We cover two listener questions in today's episode, with two guests once again in the Listener's Chair, those being Alex Kauffmann and Suzi Darrington, who sit alongside the regular co-hosts Stuart ‘The Wildman' Mabbutt and William Mankelow.The two questions up for discussion are: “How do technological advancements alter scientific methodologies?” which was sent in by Floss in Gimli, Manitoba, Canada, and “Can ethical consumption ever exist in a capitalistic society?” which was posed by Paul in Queensland, Australia.From Floss's question, Alex feels that technology evolves to become more accurate and precise over time, forcing scientific methodologies to adapt accordingly. Suzi sees positive AI applications in science (early breast cancer detection for example) but is concerned about how it's being used in the creative fields, while Stuart advocates for technology to enhance rather than replace human skills and awareness. William emphasizes viewing AI as a tool rather than a master, for example it can be useful for mentoring when human mentors aren't accessible. He feels it all comes down to how AI is used.Then from Paul's question, William attempts to define ethical consumption by encouraging you to "stop buying crap and just buy what you actually need to exist", while Suzi posits the idea that “ if consumption is ethical, it would have to be good, not just neutral. But she thinks when people criticize consumption under capitalism, the suggestion is that it's not only not ethically good, it's actually ethically bad because it relies on someone's exploitation.” Meanwhile Alex believes that pure ethical consumption under capitalism is impossible, and advocates to be conscious of your environmental impact in consumption decisions. Stuart questions whether anyone is truly outside the capitalist system - he asks "aren't we all in the system?"What do you make of this discussion?

What does it really take to make a long-term marriage work and why do so many couples struggle to stay connected over time? In this episode, I sit down with psychologist and author Dr. Bonnie Comfort to explore the hard truths and hopeful tools behind enduring love. With over 30 years of experience working with couples, Dr. Comfort offers a candid look into the complexities of modern marriage, the emotional minefield of infidelity, and why empathy, not perfection, is the real glue that holds relationships together. We talk about the cultural conditioning that encourages women to be overly pleasing, the evolving power dynamics in long-term relationships, and how to navigate the inevitable incompatibilities that arise between two people over time. Dr. Comfort's latest book, Staying Married Is the Hardest Part, is a compassionate, unflinching exploration of what it means to choose each other over and over again, even when it's not easy. In this conversation, we explore: - The infidelity trap and what it reveals about a relationship - The “glue” that helps couples weather storms and stay committed - The surprising risks inherent in couples' therapy - How empathy becomes a sustaining force in long-term love - Why cultural messaging still trains women to please at their own expense - How to make peace with the inevitable incompatibilities in marriage - The shifting power dynamics that unfold over decades together Meet Dr. Bonnie Comfort: Dr. Bonnie Comfort is a clinical psychologist, author, and expert in marital therapy. She holds an MSW from the University of Manitoba and a PhD from the Chicago School of Professional Psychology in Los Angeles. Her psychological thriller Denial was published in seven countries and translated into four languages. Her newest book, Staying Married Is the Hardest Part, offers a raw, honest take on the emotional and psychological complexities of committed relationships.

The Guys are back after an extended health crisis. News You Can Use and Share! MyHeritage added 540 million historical records in May and 1.25 billion records in June! Among these are 731 million records from French newspapers, part of a push to expand its vast collections of new records from non-English language resources. Vivid-Pix has partnered with the National Institute for Dementia Education (NIDE) and PocketRN, through the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services, to assist in caring for aging memory care patients and their caregivers. FamilySearch International and Michigan State University have announced an extensive expansion to MSU's online collection, Enslaved, at https://enslaved.org/, and at FamilySearch.org. The new dataset uses the 1900 U.S. federal census records to document formerly enslaved individuals and their families. (Enslaved.org is worthy of your financial support.) FamilySearch added 30 million new records from eight (8) countries, including Italian civil registration records, Brazilian cemetery records, and records from the American Medical Association's deceased physicians (1864-1968). Listener Email Joanne was thrilled with MyHeritage's addition of 1926 Canada Census records of Manitoba, Alberta, and Saskatchewan. These included both of her parents! Judi shares that Essex County, New Jersey, newspapers are accessible at the Newark [NJ] Public Library, and that the Newark News can be searched online. (See https://www.npl.org/collections-services/charles-f-cummings-new-jersey-information-center/inventory-of-new-jersey-newspapers-on-microfilm/.) Ken has been researching Sons of the American Revolution (SAR) and local studies. He has used census records and military documents, and he warns that there are transcription errors (manual and mechanized) that researchers should be alert to these, and continue their personal research to locate and include the original documents whenever possible. Laura writes to share some issues she has had with Newspapers.com and the responses she received from the company. She discusses the need to be alerted by online companies of known problems on that they are working to resolve. Jana responded to Drew's comments about Tennessee records, and she discusses that ‘missing' individuals may have migrated to Georgia, Texas, Arkansas, and Missouri. Consider common migration patterns and check for records in other states. Paula is greatly concerned about shrinking genealogical societies. She is searching for resources and forums for discussions of strategies. George suggested contacting the National Genealogical Society for assistance. Mary is seeking advice on determining the parentage of an illegitimate ancestor. Drew offers advice about the use of DNA testing strategies. Lisa asks about the 1860 U.S. federal census agricultural census. Column 44 asks about molasses and its suggestions of values of the source: M for maple and S for sorghum. She has seen the value of ‘CC' and wonders what that indicates. The Guys cannot find anything in any enumerator instructions, and they ask other listeners to share their knowledge and experience on this issue. Drew provides a recap of his experiences at the South Carolina Genealogical Society's Summer Workshop in Columbia in July. Drew will be presenting at the International Jewish Genealogical Society Conference in Fort Wayne, Indiana, soon and shares some thoughts. Please let us hear from you at genealogyguys@gmail.com with your questions and comments.

Send us a textWhat happens when a tiny heart warrior inspires a movement of love and advocacy? In this powerful conversation, I sit down with Haley Graham, whose daughter Emberly Dawn was born with multiple heart defects, including a rare Taussig-Bing anomaly. Haley takes us through the emotional journey from that first concerning ultrasound to the founding of Embers of Love, a nonprofit that's changing lives across Manitoba.Haley shares the raw truth of those early days—the quiet car ride home after receiving concerning news at her 41-week ultrasound, being flown from Winnipeg to Edmonton for emergency treatment just days after Emberly's birth, and the month spent in a hotel across from the children's hospital. Her story captures both the inherent isolation of receiving a CHD diagnosis and the profound community support that emerged to sustain them.The name "Embers of Love" came from a touching observation made during Emberly's hospital stay—that this tiny baby somehow "spreads embers of love to everyone she meets." What began with handmade keychains and candles has blossomed into a significant advocacy organization that's participated in over 35 initiatives since 2023. From donating sound machines to the NICU to organizing craft kits for Heart Camp campers, Haley shows how personal experience can transform into meaningful community action.Most moving is Haley's reflection on how Amberlee has become "the flame to our family fire," completely shifting their perspective on what matters in life. Her story reminds us that even in our most vulnerable moments, we can find purpose, create lasting change, and spread those precious embers of love to others walking similar paths.Ready to get involved in supporting the CHD community?

Myroslav Shkandrij is a prominent scholar of Ukrainian cultural history and Professor Emeritus at the University of Manitoba in Canada. He has written extensively on topics such as avant-garde art in Ukraine, Ukrainian nationalism, Jews in Ukrainian literature, cultural imperialism, and decolonization. His book “Russia and Ukraine: Literature and the Discourse of Empire, from Napoleonic to Postcolonial Times”, published in 2001, remains a classic text on Russian cultural imperialism and Ukrainian resistance to it.

In the summer of 1975, Canada experienced one of its most intense and widespread waves of UFO activity. From glowing orbs lighting up the skies over Manitoba to structured craft witnessed by RCMP officers in Saskatchewan, hundreds of reports flooded in from across the country. Some sightings even left behind scorched earth and damaged vegetation—tangible traces of something unexplained. In this episode, we're joined by Canadian UFO researcher Chris Rutkowski, who has spent decades cataloging and analyzing reports like these. Together, we explore the most notable cases from that summer, dig into the official government documentation, and ask the big question: what was really happening in Canada's skies during Canada's summer of UFOs?
