As the GOP hardens its position on Roe v. Wade we are beginning to see the future of what Alito's draconian decision holds. In Missouri, like in Texas, if you get an abortion in another state, you could still be arrested. In Mississippi, they want to charge mothers with murder for terminating a pregnancy. If it all sounds insane, it is. Walt Masterson joins Mea Culpa to discuss what he's seeing on the ground infiltrating MAGA Rallies.

David Greene joins us to talk about his new podcast, David Greene Is Obsessed, where opera singers map public restrooms, pizza-tour guys chase the perfect slice, and even David Arquette turns Bozo the Clown into an intellectual-property saga. We get into why an obsession can unlock a different kind of interview, plus Greene's own confessions, from the Hay-Adams bathroom workaround to sports fandom.  Plus: the Mississippi miracle, and what China's van-based math prodigies say about how serious nations approach the future. And in the Spiel, life expectancy hits 79 in 2024, why that stat misleads even when it's true, and why good news gets swamped by the bad stuff.

In this compelling segment from The Clay Edwards Show, host Clay Edwards takes a call from a black listener in Mississippi who shares raw insights into the "paradox" facing black Americans today. The caller explains the ingrained push toward Democratic loyalty—rooted in narratives of Republicans as "racist clan members"—while highlighting how issues like the immigration crisis directly harm black communities by diverting resources to non-citizens. He recounts personal stories from Chicago and California, where schools and aid meant for struggling African Americans are redirected, forcing some to consider desperate measures like posing as immigrants for help.   The discussion dives into the internal conflict: criticizing Democrats feels taboo due to party allegiance, yet Republicans' policies could benefit all Americans. The caller praises the show for addressing these truths and urges prayer for "black America" to wake up, warning of media-driven divisions reminiscent of "Nazi Germany." He notes the backlash faced by figures like Nicki Minaj for supporting Trump and calls for equal enforcement of laws, regardless of race or politics.   Clay commends black communities for avoiding white liberal protests and emphasizes unity against manipulation. A must-listen for unfiltered talk on race, politics, and the immigrant debate—straight from a caller's perspective.

In this episode of The Clay Edwards Show, host Clay Edwards dives into the chaotic pulse of current events, from national political antics to local Mississippi drama. Kicking off with reflections on living in "interesting times," Clay tackles the ongoing war against cancel culture and spotlights tough conversations about Jackson's challenges, including systemic corruption and the fight for America's soul.   A major focus is Jackson State University's push for a new football stadium, with a $40 million ask from the state. Clay breaks down the debate: why JSU fans and alumni report zero donations to athletics despite high-profile seasons, comparisons to self-funded projects at Mississippi State and Ole Miss, and the case for an on-campus venue to enhance the student experience. He questions taxpayer funding without community commitment, suggesting fundraisers and master plans as alternatives.   Shifting gears, Clay discusses a proposed bill by Rep. Shonda Yates to allow law enforcement to seize vehicles involved in street drag racing. As a former street racer himself, he shares personal stories but supports cracking down on organized, dangerous events—like tube-chassis cars flipping on Medgar Evers—while emphasizing the need to protect casual car enthusiasts from overreach.   Breaking news hits mid-show: Don Lemon's arrest under the FACE Act for a church protest in Minnesota, sparking talk of "consequence culture" replacing cancel culture. Clay praises everyday black communities for steering clear of white liberal protests, avoiding manipulation, and features a caller highlighting the "paradox" black Americans face in politics—trapped between party loyalty and issues like immigration draining resources.   The episode wraps with an overnight shooting at a Jackson nightclub and a deep dive with Rep. Fred Shanks on the drag racing bill and PBM reform to protect independent pharmacies from big-chain monopolies, ensuring transparency and community access to affordable meds.   Unfiltered, no-holds-barred talk on politics, local accountability, and cultural shifts—strap in for raw insights and bold takes.

In this focused segment from The Clay Edwards Show, host Clay Edwards tackles the hot-button issue of Jackson State University's push for a new football stadium. JSU is requesting about $40 million from the state for a "big old shiny castle on a hill," but Clay questions whether taxpayers should foot the bill when other schools like Mississippi State and Ole Miss raise their own funds through alumni donations and expansions.   Diving into the numbers, Clay reveals that JSU reported zero dollars in athletic donations for 2022—despite it being their most successful year under Deion Sanders, with sold-out games, national attention, and a SWAC championship. He argues for accountability: if fans and alumni aren't contributing, why should the state? While acknowledging the benefits of relocating from the current off-campus site (which could aid UMMC's expansion into a medical corridor), Clay insists any new stadium must be on-campus for the full college experience, not out in a remote area.   Clay shares honest takes on the surrounding neighborhoods, emphasizing common-sense solutions like fundraisers and master plans to generate revenue rather than relying on public money. Listener texts chime in, highlighting JSU's high FCS attendance but stressing the need for fiscal responsibility—comparing it to Ole Miss and Mississippi State's self-funded projects. Is $40 million worth it, or should JSU tighten the belt and rally its base? Clay calls it straight: without commitment, they might as well play in a high school stadium.   Raw, unfiltered debate on local accountability, HBCU pride, and taxpayer dollars—perfect for fans of no-nonsense Mississippi talk.

In this powerhouse segment from The Clay Edwards Show, host Clay Edwards sits down with State Rep. Fred Shanks for a no-holds-barred chat on hot Mississippi and national issues. They kick off with the "Kraken" finally unleashing in Fulton County—six years after 2020—with DNI Director Tulsi Gabbard on the ground auditing ballots amid desperate reactions from election officials that scream guilt. Clay and Fred speculate on potential foreign ties (Venezuela? China?) and celebrate the momentum, even floating a bold "Trump 2028" reclaim.   Shifting to local streets, they break down Rep. Shonda Yates' bill to seize vehicles in drag racing busts. As fellow reformed South Jackson car guys, they support hitting organized chaos—like trailer queens flipping on Medgar Evers—while protecting casual enthusiasts from overreach. No more shutting down city blocks for high-stakes bets; it's time for real teeth in enforcement, inspired by JPD and Capitol PD feedback.   Finally, Fred draws from his 30 years as a pharmacist to expose the PBM racket—pharmacy benefit managers owned by big insurers and chains like CVS, clawing back millions and forcing independents to close. They call for transparency and reform to save community lifelines that sponsor Little Leagues, deliver midnight meds, and beat big-box prices. Listeners: Contact your reps to push PBM changes before independents vanish.   Unfiltered insights on accountability, street safety, and small-business survival—straight talk from two Mississippi originals.

America's welfare programs have long operated on the assumption that states and nonprofits could responsibly steward federal dollars with minimal oversight. But a series of explosive fraud cases—from California to Mississippi to Minnesota—have exposed just how broken that system has become, with lax oversight and minimal accountability leading to billions of dollars stolen from taxpayers.Shad White, Mississippi's state auditor and author of Mississippi Swindle, joins Oren to explain how his office uncovered one of the largest welfare scandals in modern history and what it reveals about America's safety net. They discuss why grant-based welfare programs are uniquely vulnerable to abuse, how federalism often undermines accountability, and how practical reforms like stronger enforcement, clearer metrics, and simpler program design can restore public trust while helping the families who need support most.

Clay Edwards kicks off the show with a high-energy intro, declaring war on cancel culture and shining a light on overlooked issues in Jackson, Mississippi—from systemic corruption to the fight for America's soul. He challenges "positive solutions" from long-time leaders and invites listeners to strap in for unfiltered, no-sugar-added talk radio. Transitioning live from the Men's Health and Women's Wellness of Mississippi studios on 103.9 FM WYAB, Clay introduces himself and guest Jamie Creel, a Shelter Insurance agent. They dive into local topics, including the new area code in North Mississippi amid rapid growth from Memphis migrants, the excellence of DeSoto County schools, and fierce opposition to school choice legislation that could undermine high-performing districts. The segment highlights the need for representatives like Senator McClendon to prioritize constituents over leadership, while expressing prayers for ice storm victims in areas like Tate County and Oxford, where building collapses have caused significant damage.

Clay Edwards hosts a lively radio discussion tackling cancel culture, local Mississippi issues, and national politics. He chats with guest Jamie Creel about the rapid growth in North Mississippi, the strong performance of DeSoto County schools, and opposition to school choice legislation that could disrupt high-performing districts. They praise Senator McClendon for representing his constituents effectively, including his Glacier Act bill, and express sympathy for ice storm victims in areas like Tate County and Oxford, where buildings have collapsed under the weight of snow and ice.   The conversation shifts to political accountability, emphasizing the need for representatives to prioritize their voters over leadership agendas. They critique the removal of ballot initiatives and discuss recent backlash against lawmakers who supported school choice. Edwards and Creel differentiate between cancel culture and "consequence culture," citing examples like a University of Mississippi employee fired for inflammatory comments and nurses losing jobs over extreme political statements on social media.   They delve into the Alex Prady case, debunking portrayals of him as an ideal citizen by sharing video evidence of his aggressive encounters with ICE agents, including assaults and property damage. The hosts argue that carrying a gun at protests requires responsibility and that Prady's actions led to foreseeable consequences. Broader political topics include election fraud allegations in Fulton County, Georgia, and Minnesota's laws allowing non-citizens to obtain driver's licenses that enable voting, skewing results in blue cities.   Edwards touches on personal fitness and mental clarity from lifestyle changes, then pivots to insurance advice, stressing the importance of proper coverage for valuables, renters' policies, and business needs amid volatile rates and storm damage. They highlight affordable life insurance options without exams for those with clean records.   The show wraps with a brief sports segment, picking the Seahawks over the Patriots in a hypothetical matchup due to strong defense, and a passionate rant on resisting Democratic narratives around immigration enforcement, election integrity, and threats to prosecute political figures like Trump. Edwards urges listeners to stay focused on core issues amid distractions.

Welcome to the Art, Life, Faith podcast. And I’m your host, Roger Lowther. Well, Happy New Year everyone! It’s good to be with you in 2026. I hope you’ve had a good year so far. Two of my boys are in college now but were able to be back with us over the winter break, and we got to have some fun in the snowy mountains of Japan, including an overnight snowshoe camping trip up one of the tallest mountains in Japan. It was beautiful, but it was also very, very cold. So cold, in fact, that the water in our water bottles froze almost immediately. And my fingers stuck to any kind of metal I touched. But so many good memories. Anyway, I want to thank you so much for your support of our newest children’s book, The Tsunami Violin, which was released late last year. Many of you have been writing me notes of encouragement, telling me who you’ve gifted the book to or your own experiences with the story. I want to share one of them with you. One woman read the book to her granddaughter’s elementary school class. In her note to me, she wrote, “Every child was wide-eyed and engaged. Students were able to identify how the characters were happy at the beginning, how they were changed by the tsunami, and how at the end of the story they were happy again because they were able to bring others hope through their story and their music. I will always cherish this special time with the students and that it was possible because of your book.” So of course I’m encouraged to receive notes like this and pray that this book will continue to have an ongoing impact in people’s lives. In our last episode, we shared a little bit about the making of The Tsunami Violin and the people involved. I thought you may also like to hear a little bit more about the background of what went into the making of the book. We consciously followed the traditional sonata-allegro form that is so common in much of classical music. In the beginning, we have the exposition, when the main theme is introduced. The main character is introduced as a tree, living in a literal garden of paradise, a forest that was planted 400 years ago and was designated as one of the most beautiful sites in all of Japan. Then everything falls apart. The tsunami comes and physically breaks the tree, tearing her up by the roots. This is the beginning of the development section, when the melodic theme is broken into fragments. Also, the development is usually in the minor key to express sadness. Then in the story the craftsman shows up, has the tree cut into smaller pieces, takes them to Tokyo, and begins to build a violin out of them. So this is the part where the development continues, where melodic fragments are taken through different keys and different ways: backwards, forwards, and upside down. Sometimes they find new relationships with a secondary theme. In other words, the fragments are put back together in new ways. And then the story ends with the main character finding hope and new life as a violin, surrounded by community through her music. And this, of course, is the recapitulation, the opening musical theme but as a new creation. Somehow that theme is deeper and more beautiful for having gone through the trauma of the development, through the breaking, through the minor key, and we hear the melody with new ears. I pray that as you read this book, you will be filled with new wonder as to how God brings hope into broken lives. Okay, today I want to share with you a conversation I had with Jerrod Partridge, a phenomenal artist working in Ocean Springs, Mississippi, on the coast of the Gulf of Mexico. He and his wife Jessie play a central role in the life of the community there, running a studio right on the main strip, and also in the lives of so many artists including, recently, a Japanese intern who came from our community here in Tokyo to spend the summer with that family. I so appreciate them and am happy just to be able to share this conversation with you so that you can get to know them as well. Jerrod Hello Roger. Roger Thank you so much for being on the show. Jerrod Yeah, I’m thrilled to be here. Roger Yeah, I really wanted people to know you, not just because you’re a phenomenal artist, but also because of your story. Jerrod Well, I mean, you’re very integrated into that story. So, it seems appropriate that we’re sitting here talking. Roger Yeah. So let me just try to share with listeners what happened. You came to Japan on a 10-day trip, two weekends with a week in between. And during that time, you did a number of events. For example, there was a church that was just starting in a new location called Double O Cross, and they wanted to introduce their space to the community. And so, in order to do that, they hosted, for the first time, an event. I think it was the first event they ever had in that space. They hosted an art show of your work. It was an amazing event. We had a live musician playing a traditional Japanese instrument, and we had wine and cheese. It was sophisticated. A lot of people came in for the first time, and the pastor was so happy. Jerrod That was a really incredible experience for me to get to experience the church in Japan, to get to experience the culture, meet so many wonderful, gracious people. It was really, honestly, a life-altering experience for me. Roger Also, there’s more about the story of this church. They wanted to plant a second location to have another service, but everyone wanted to be in that one space where the art gallery was because, somehow, I think through events like that, that we were able to do afterwards, people were really drawn into that space. It felt like a place of home. The community really liked being there. It was a space that was a gift to the neighborhood. To introduce that space to the neighborhood through the arts really was a powerful message. Jerrod It was very welcoming. The artwork, how it was displayed, and then having the musician play. I did a drawing while she was playing. So that was a neat collaboration. Then, even one of the guys from the church made some refreshments and snacks that related to the work. Because I do a lot of drawings with walnut ink, he had snacks that were made with walnuts and things. And I thought that connection and relationship was so thoughtful and really made the whole thing have depth and meaning beyond just pictures on the wall. Roger Right, and you should know, too, that some of the relationships made for the first time in that event have continued through that church and through our artist community. I still am talking to those people. Jerrod Yeah, that’s amazing. And likewise, relationships that I’ve made have continued. Roger So cool. Well, then the next day, I think it was, or a day later, we had an event at our church, Grace City Church Tokyo, where we hosted a talk and luncheon before worship and sold some of your works. You were able to talk about it over a sushi lunch, and we also had a Q&A time. Jerrod Yeah, that was really fascinating. It was eye-opening for me, some of the questions that came out, because there are things that we just don’t think about necessarily. We don’t consider how a different culture is going to see your processes and interpretations. One thing that I specifically remember I do a lot of work on handmade paper, and the paper is intentionally really textured. I leave openings and holes. It’s real rough. But I know the Japanese people are used to paper making in such a high form. The paper that they make is so gorgeous and perfectly done. So there was a little confusion of why would you make paper that’s so rough and imperfect. But when I explained the process, there was a really neat connection of understanding why I would choose to do it in that form. So that was a really wonderful memory. Then also the question of why I might have been painting some of the things I was painting. Roger Yeah, I remember that. My church sponsored the event, and we made it clear you were a Christian. It was not necessarily a Christian event, but it was hosted and sponsored by Christians. One of the people asked, “Why do you, as a Christian, why are you painting Shinto Shrines? Why are you painting Buddhist temples?” Jerrod Yeah, that was fascinating. It was an eye-opening question for me because as a foreigner, everything was new and different and visually exciting. I didn’t think too much about why, as a Christian, I might be drawn to these things visually. Roger Do you remember what your answer was to their question? Jerrod Only vaguely. Because I was a little bit surprised by the question. So, you tell me what you remember. Roger I remember you saying, “Because it’s beautiful. I wanted to paint it because it’s beautiful.” But they were a little bit surprised by that because I think there’s a pretty strong message to, especially Christians in Japan, that you should not go to shrines, you should not go to temples, that it is contrary to what the God of the Bible desires. And they try to avoid that side of Japanese culture, which is such a huge part of Japanese culture. It’s a real struggle in the Japanese church, I think. Jerrod Yeah, and I could see that struggle and was glad to be aware of the sensitivity of that. But at the same time, I did feel like the message of the fact that a Christian can see the beauty of what is created by non-Christians, but also the beauty of the fact that everybody are children of God, that whatever understanding we may have of religions, of culture, that there is beauty all around us in God’s creation, but also in man’s creation. And that can be celebrated. That can be celebrated through our approach as Christians without having to limit ourselves to the person making the creations. They have to believe what I believe for me to appreciate what they’re doing. And I just think that that limitation is unnecessary and not helpful. Roger Yeah, I actually I have a lot of discussions with Christian artists in Japan about this, and there’s a lot of opinions about it. We’re still trying to figure it out because, yes, we believe as Christians that there is no beauty outside of God’s beauty. So all beauty is essentially pointing to the source of all beauty. But when it comes through other religions, there is a, I don’t know, a barrier, I think, within the heart that make it difficult to worship God and to see that beauty because of growing up in that culture and such a strong connection between Japanese art and the Japanese religion. Jerrod Yeah, I think as a foreigner, there’s obviously that cultural separation where I’m able to see things from a distance because I didn’t grow up in the culture, and I can just see it all as an outside beauty. There’s a much easier time for me to do that And again, to recognize the sensitivity of a Japanese Christian’s perspective on that was really informative to me. Roger Yeah. I remember one of the practical cool things about the event was that we were inviting many people who weren’t Christians to the art event, to the luncheon. And then because worship was happening right after that in just the room next door, it was one more doorway into Christian community, into Christian worship. People came from that event then to worship for the first time in their life because of what you did, because you came. Let me transition to that. Why did you come to Japan in the first place? Jerrod Well, it was a really unexpected thing. You came and did a concert at our church here in Ocean Springs, Mississippi, because of a relationship that you had with our pastor. I felt the need to introduce myself after I heard you play. I’ve always been very drawn to and attracted to Japanese aesthetics. The fact that it’s encouraged nationally is a really fascinating thing to me, but it’s always been something I’ve been drawn to. When I found out that you were a performing artist in Japan, I just felt the need to introduce myself. From that introduction, you saw the work that I was doing. You invited me to Japan. Our church decided to help me get there. They ended up sending me to Japan to have this exhibition with you. It felt all very God-led because none of us planned any of it. It was like just from that introduction, all these things started happening that felt necessary and changed lives in a way that we could not have planned. Roger That’s so true. I love meeting artists wherever I’m traveling around. But the fact that after inviting you, you said, “Yeah, I’ll come.” Now, that is very unusual. Most people I invite, they’re like, Well, that’s okay. Thank you. I had no idea how talented you were as an artist at the time, but also how good you are with people. Just to see how God worked through you was just an amazing blessing in so many ways. To see how God just, through that one chance meeting, that all this came about. So one of the things that came about is recently a Japanese artist came from Japan and stayed in your home for a while and worked as an artist. Can you tell us a little bit about that? Jerrod Yeah, so we hosted Satomi Suzuki. I met Satomi when I was in Japan in 2019, but it was a very brief meeting, and I didn’t know for sure that we had met. When you mentioned to me the idea that she was looking for an artist in residency program. My wife and I own a flower shop and art gallery here in downtown Ocean Springs. And you saw that that might be an interesting opportunity for Satomi to get a different experience. We said, “Yeah, that sounds wonderful.” The name sounded somewhat familiar, but I met so many people while I was over there, so I didn’t know for sure. But I dug back down into my memoirs from the trip, papers and things that I had brought back, and I found this lovely little note that she had written at my art exhibition of how much she enjoyed the show, how much she appreciated me being there. To see that written out immediately made me feel like there’s this deeper connection that I wasn’t even aware of. Roger You even have it here on the table next to you. You kept it. Jerrod I pulled it out for you to see because the name sounded familiar because she had written this at the show, and I had brought it back and read through. And she wasn’t the only one. Multiple really wonderful comments from people that I met. But we were excited about that continued relationship of, “Okay, here’s somebody looking for an art. She wants the opportunity to paint. She wants to experience different things.” And life in Ocean Springs is very different from life in Tokyo. Much fewer people. Much slower pace of life. But again, it felt like something that was beyond our knowledge and intention of what was going on. And so when the idea came, we said, yes, this sounds like a wonderful thing, a wonderful opportunity for us to have a different experience for our family to experience the Japanese culture coming to Ocean Springs with no clue as to what that was going to look like. We didn’t even know if Satomi spoke English well. We didn’t know anything about her, but we said, Okay, sure. Then we still didn’t know where she was going to stay. Our oldest son ended up getting a job opportunity out of the state for a few months. Jerrod Again, that just fit right into the plan that God had for this to work out that we could not have known was going to happen. So all of a sudden, we had a room available in our home, and we invited her to come and be a part of our family. And she fit in in the most amazing way. She came in with a real loving, gracious heart. She wanted to work. She wanted to be able to experience a different culture. And we thoroughly, thoroughly enjoyed having her here. Roger Yeah, that’s so kind of you to open your home to her in that way. I know for a fact, and actually you all too can know for a fact by reading her blog, just how much it’s changed her life to be able to go on this residency, how good it was. I’m going to put some links in the show notes so you can see her artwork and what she was up to. SATOMI SUZUKI INSTRAGRAM Jerrod And she was on a recent podcast with you. Roger She was, yes. Jerrod We enjoyed listening to that. Roger I interviewed her to help raise money for her time here. And so, you can go back and listen to that. I’ll also put a link to that in the show notes. https://www.rogerwlowther.com/2024/05/01/57-beauty-through-gods-eyes-with-satomi-suzuki/ So why Ocean Springs? What brought you here as a visual artist? This is a special place. Tell me why. Jerrod Yeah, there’s a there’s a unique art culture here. We lived in Jackson for a long time, and Jackson has a unique support and celebration. And I think Mississippi as a whole supports artists and the arts. It’s hard to say that this doesn’t exist in other surrounding places. It probably does. But living here and knowing that Mississippi does not always get a good reputation for things. Most of the stories coming out about Mississippi are not positive. But living here, I can tell you it is a very positive and encouraging place for artists. Jackson was wonderful. We ended up moving our family down to the coast in 2016. I grew up in Mobile, which is also on the coast and so being near the water was always an attractive place for me to be. But we moved our family down here. The culture of Ocean Springs has really been developed by this one family, the Anderson family, who in the early turn of the century started a pottery studio. One of the brothers was a really successful potter. One of the brothers, Walter Anderson, was a painter and printmaker. And now there’s a museum here in town dedicated to his work. And it’s really neat to see how this one family of artists have created an aesthetic for the whole town, and how the town celebrates that, identifies with the imagery that they created. I just really love that artists were able to give this unity to a community. I think that attracts artists, that they see that art has become an identifier for this town, and therefore, artists want to be here. Roger I love that downtown area. It’s a walking area, right? Shop after shop after shop. It’s just a really fun place to be. Jerrod It’s beautiful with all the old oak trees. That’s one of the real iconic aspects of the town and the area all along the Gulf Coast, not just Ocean Springs, but the old oak trees are special. There’s actually an exhibition that I curated at the Walter Anderson Museum right now that is based on live oaks. I selected 10 different artists to create work, to dig into the cultural, spiritual, ecological aspects of living with live oaks. It’s something that needs to be celebrated. Roger Yeah. I know that right next to that museum is where you just opened, you and your wife opened up a shop in a really nice hotel in an older style. Jerrod It’s a boutique hotel, so 15 rooms, small but right in the downtown area, right next to the Walter Anderson Museum. Ever since we moved to Ocean Springs, we thought it’d be neat to have something downtown. It just has such a wonderful feel. We thought, Well, that would be neat, but we don’t know how we would do that or what it would look like, or even if it would be supported. We just didn’t know. Then we met the developers on this hotel, and we saw that we had this unified vision for what it could be, and a real nature-focused aesthetic to it. They appreciated what we were doing. Jessie, my wife, with her floral design, fantastic designer, me with the artwork that I was doing. I’m doing a lot of nature-themed paintings, and they just really fit together with their vision of the development. That’s been a really neat thing. Community has really stepped up and supported what we’re doing. It’s been a big learning experience. We’re still within the first year of opening. We’ve never had a physical shop before. I’ve been painting full-time for 15 years. Jessie’s been doing weddings and events for about that amount of time. We’ve always just worked in the studio and then had events that we were working for. This is our first time to actually have our own physical space. It’s been amazing. There have been some hard things to it, but a lot of learning going on. Roger Yeah, I loved seeing this space. Thank you for showing it to me last night. You talked about how the Andersons created this atmosphere where the artist wanted to join, and you now are definitely a huge part of that being right on that main strip with all the old shops in that hotel right next to the museum. It’s just so cool to see how art is playing such a huge role in life of the city here. Jerrod Yeah. And even within the museum itself right now, there’s an exhibition of the Ocean Spring’s Art Association has this huge exhibition of artists from all along the coast within the museum right now. And so, the arts culture here is really huge. It’s encouraging. It’s exciting. We just had this big Peter Anderson Festival in town, where around 150,000 people come in one week. That’s a lot of people. In Tokyo standards, that’s not a whole lot. But for this small town, for that many people to come because of the arts, is really exciting. Roger So we’re just about out of time, but is there anything else you would like to say before we sign off? Jerrod Yeah, I’d like to talk a little bit about just traveling as an artist. We talked about traveling to Japan, but I’ve actually gotten to lead a bunch of groups to Europe for travel and to teach drawing and painting in Europe. We’ve been to Italy 10 different times. We’ve taken groups to Spain and Greece, and we went to Sweden this year. Every time I go to a different culture, I learn something else about humanity, and it’s usually positive. And I think that’s a wonderful thing, to experience the cultures, how people interact with the arts, how people interact with each other, and then being able to bring that back to my daily life. It’s always going to influence you in some way, whether it’s obvious to others or not. It may just be all internal. So the trip to Japan fit in that as well. It was a different type of trip because I was having a show instead of leading a group. But being able to offer that to other people and knowing how life-changing that can be has been a really exciting thing over the past several years to be able to do. I’m actually organizing a trip. We’re going back to Italy next June soon, and then I’m putting together a trip to France to study Monet next September. Roger That’s so cool. People listening, could they join as well? Jerrod Yes, of course. It’s open. We go and we really focus on studying the arts. Some people take drawing and painting lessons from me while we’re over there, but not everybody. Some are just there to soak it up and enjoy it from the periphery. There’s some of us that are really digging into creating work and experiencing the place through drawing and painting. But I understand that’s not for everyone. We do encourage people to respond to the experience creatively in whatever form they may have. They may take photographs. They may write in journals or write poetry. I think that being over there and responding creatively is something that we can encourage no matter what their experience level is. Roger Well, thank you so much for your time and for opening people’s eyes to the beauty of the world around them, the cultures around them. And thank you so much for sitting down with me. Jerrod Thanks, Roger. I appreciate it. JERROD PARTRIDGE WEBSITE

MDWFP deer biologist Carmen Campbell joins the Mississippi Outdoors Podcast to explain a new way scientists are detecting Chronic Wasting Disease — without relying on a dead deer.The conversation breaks down what deer scrapes are, why multiple deer use them, and how soil collected from scrapes can be tested for signs of CWD. Campbell explains how this method can detect the disease earlier than traditional hunter-harvested samples and why that matters for managing deer herds.Matt and Carmen also discuss how scrape testing ties into Mississippi's three-mile CWD tag program, giving hunters more opportunity while helping biologists monitor the disease. It's a fascinating look at how science, hunters, and wildlife management intersect to protect Mississippi's deer resource. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

We sit down with master blender and COO Kieran Walsh of Big Easy Spirits to unpack a five-year whiskey aged in used cooperage and layered with precise infusions—baking spices, citrus peels, and verdant herbs—that amplify what whiskey already does well. No cloying sweetness, no camouflage, just a thoughtfully built 86 proof pour that blooms on ice, hums in a hot toddy, and reshapes what “flavored” can mean without losing its whiskey core.Kieran's journey runs from wine production and restrained oak philosophy to High West's blending lab, where the idea of barrel-aged cocktails and Amaro architecture took root. That background shows in every decision: used barrels keep the oak in line, botanicals track existing whiskey notes rather than fighting them, and the proof point preserves structure in cocktails while staying approachable neat. We explore how hydrophobic compounds unlock aroma with water and heat, why category rules forced a new lane beyond “flavored whiskey,” and how New Orleans—more gumbo than single note—became both muse and proving ground.We also get practical. Expect serving ideas from a minimalist Bourbon Street hot toddy (just whiskey and hot water) to an absinthe-kissed riff worthy of the Old Absinthe House. Kieran shares distribution plans rooted in local love first, then careful expansion to Texas, the Florida panhandle, Mississippi, California, and more. He teases future releases, including older base stocks with alternate infusions and two bourbons waiting in tank—early tasters' reactions ranged from “holy shit” to wide-eyed silence.If you're curious about whiskey innovation, botanical infusions, New Orleans cocktail culture, and how to bridge the gap between purist pours and sugar-heavy flavor bombs, this one's for you.

The investigation into Heather Strong's disappearance ends in the most devastating way possible. What began as a missing person case becomes a murder trial that sends ripples through Florida's legal system for years to come.Heather Strong was 26 years old when her life was brutally cut short. A mother of two young children, McKinzie and Zachary, she had spent years navigating a turbulent relationship with her ex-partner Joshua Fulgham while trying to build a better life for her family. Her cousin Misty, who grew up with Heather in Mississippi, described her as the sister she never had.On February 15, 2009, in a storage trailer in rural Boardman, Florida, Heather walked into a trap. Lured by promises of hidden money, she instead found herself bound to a chair with duct tape, a plastic bag sealed over her head. According to court testimony, she remained conscious for approximately five agonizing minutes as she suffocated. Joshua Fulgham and his pregnant girlfriend Emilia Carr worked in tandem to restrain her, silence her pleas for help, and end her life.The investigation that followed was methodical and relentless. Deputy Billings from the Marion County Sheriff's Office pieced together witness accounts, jailhouse recordings, and forensic evidence. When detectives enlisted Fulgham's sister to wear a wire, Carr's admissions unraveled completely. On March 19, 2009, Fulgham led investigators to a shallow grave on property owned by Carr's mother, where Heather's decomposing remains confirmed what her family had feared.Both perpetrators faced justice. Emilia Carr was initially sentenced to death in 2011 by a 7-5 jury vote. Following the 2016 Hurst v. Florida Supreme Court decision declaring non-unanimous death penalty recommendations unconstitutional, she was resentenced to life without parole in June 2017. Joshua Fulgham received life without parole in April 2012. Heather's two children were eventually adopted into new families.This episode contains audio from court proceedings and investigative interviews.

Border Patrol commander Gregory Bovino has been reassigned and will be leaving his post in Minneapolis, sources say, with border czar Tom Homan taking over. The change comes after the death of VA nurse Alex Pretti, who was shot and killed by Border Patrol. Minneapolis Police Chief Brian O'Hara told CBS News the video of the killing shows questionable tactics by federal agents. There have been around 3,000 ICE and Customs and Border Protection agents operating in Minneapolis. The surge in federal agents began in early December when the city became the latest hotspot for the Trump administration's immigration crackdown. Lilia Luciano looks at what led up to what's unfolding now in Minnesota. During an appearance for a his new book, "Where We Keep the Light: Stories From A Life of Service", Pennsylvania Gov. Josh Shapiro told "CBS Mornings" "this mission is broken" when asked if the Trump administration has made enough changes following the latest fatal shooting by federal agents in Minneapolis.

Is it a coffee bar, with a make-shift stage on a corner platform, attended by the beatnik intelligentsia?, or is it a sweaty discotheque packed with beautiful people unabashedly swinging their hips?   It's definitely a transmogrifying chamber where the musical output of a sharecropper or convict from the work farm can be turned into sexy jazzbo stylings through the sleight of hand of some nifty cultural appropriation and syncopated finesse. There are many manifestations of the “blues” and here we have two vastly different - practically unrecognizable from each other - masters - Sleepy John Estes (1899-1977), and Georgie Fame (born 1943) - existing across the pond, across generations, and across many layers of lived experience, but bonded by their singular love of this primitive music that started in the Mississippi delta, and went on to conquer the world. SLEEPY JOHN ESTESEverybody thought that Sleepy John Estes was dead because Big Bill Broonzy said so. Blind in one eye, folks called him “sleepy” because of a low blood pressure disorder, or some believed he had narcolepsy. He started recording in the 20's with Hammie Nixon on harp, made some records, went basically “radio silent” throughout the 40s and 50s until Sam Charters rediscovered him in 1962, blind and frail, and kick-started his late in life fame. “Rats in my Kitchen” was recorded at Sun Studios in 1952, but it wasn't until 10 years later that his recording career gained traction, fueled by those he was influencing across the pond, like Robert Plant of Led Zeppelin. Sleepy John always wrote about his life, and this record has an almost journalistic authenticity. GEORGIE FAMEWhat can one say about Georgie Fame? The man has style for days, and it was thus from the very beginning - in shark skin suits, tab collars, and skinny ties. Born in 1943 as Clive Powell, Georgie Fame and his Blue Flames made their bones swinging his Hammond organ in the mod clubs of the early 60s, and had big commercial hits with Yeh Yeh, and The Ballad of Bonnie and Clyde. Recently, he's name checked all over the place, and has done notable collaborations with Van Morrison and others. In Parchman Farm you can hear the undeniable influence of the coolest of the cool white blues men, Mose Allison, and the organ of Booker T and the MGs' Green Onions - a persuasive combination. I'm sure that Bukka White, who wrote this bottle neck Delta blues shouter in 1940 had no inkling that his experience in the Mississippi State Pen would become such a sexy signature tune. You never can tell….

HARDY is a singer-songwriter and producer. Odds are, your favorite country song wasn't written by the person singing it; it was probably written by HARDY (or someone in his writing circle, maybe). So how did a Mississippi country boy become one of Nashville's most powerful behind-the-scenes writers and producers? Expect to learn what HARDY's philosophy for his career and life is, what most people do not understand about how the Nashville scene works, how to balance the unique tension between being a songwriter and an artist, the story of the bus crash that almost killed HARDY, how to use vulnerability and turn it into a strength and much more… Sponsors: See discounts for all the products I use and recommend: ⁠https://chriswillx.com/deals⁠ Get up to $350 off the Pod 5 at https://eightsleep.com/modernwisdom Get a Free Sample Pack of LMNT's most popular flavours with your first purchase at https://drinklmnt.com/modernwisdom Get a free bottle of D3K2, an AG1 Welcome Kit, and more when you first subscribe at https://ag1.info/modernwisdom Get 35% off your first subscription on the best supplements from Momentous at https://livemomentous.com/modernwisdom Extra Stuff: Get my free reading list of 100 books to read before you die: ⁠https://chriswillx.com/books⁠ Try my productivity energy drink Neutonic: ⁠https://neutonic.com/modernwisdom⁠ Episodes You Might Enjoy: #577 - David Goggins - This Is How To Master Your Life: ⁠https://tinyurl.com/43hv6y59⁠ #712 - Dr Jordan Peterson - How To Destroy Your Negative Beliefs: ⁠https://tinyurl.com/2rtz7avf⁠ #700 - Dr Andrew Huberman - The Secret Tools To Hack Your Brain: ⁠https://tinyurl.com/3ccn5vkp⁠ - Get In Touch: Instagram: ⁠https://www.instagram.com/chriswillx⁠ Twitter: ⁠https://www.twitter.com/chriswillx⁠ YouTube: ⁠https://www.youtube.com/modernwisdompodcast⁠ Email: ⁠https://chriswillx.com/contact⁠ - Learn more about your ad choices.
