Welcome to the podcast "where productions values go to die," and this episiode covers a range of topics, starting with out gratitude to Bub's Bookstore in Carson City, Nevada for being a bright light in our community. Please check them out if you are local to northern Nevada.I put this in every post: our podcast is not endorsed nor are we paid to promote, but you would probably question that when you see the amount of Coca-Cola products we've got stacked on our table. We went on a "junkin'" (great word!) safari and brought home cool products from our local antique stores.Being a writers podcast, we used the safari to discuss how authors can present obsession and stalking in your work of fiction. The technology of the 21st Century makes stalking much too easy, but we also use our experiences with prison inmates to illustrate our point.That's all for now. Take care of you.

Juliette Arnold is the co-founder of Plant Based Strategies, a consultancy helping restaurants and food businesses successfully develop and scale plant-based offerings. A longtime vegan advocate, she spent over a decade building community through grassroots initiatives like the Biggest Little Plant Pod and co-organizing the Vegan Chef Challange in Reno. But she noticed a gap: restaurants wanted to participate in the plant-based movement, but many struggled with execution–menu development, staff training, and profitability. That's when she shifted from advocacy to industry transformation. In this episode, Juliette shares how she went from reading The China Study 16 years ago to building a business that helps restaurants make plant-based dining profitable and accessible. She talks about identifying the real pain points in the hospitality industry, the importance of training and community, and how real change happens when you connect vision, industry, and community. You'll learn aboutHow to identify a gap in the market and build a business that solves a real industry problemWhy restaurants want to go plant-based but struggle with executionThe difference between grassroots advocacy and systemic industry change, and why you need bothHow to make plant-based offerings profitable for restaurants (not just appealing to customers)Guest Linkshttps://www.plantbasedstrategies.comSocial Mediahttps://www.instagram.com/plant.based.strategies/https://www.facebook.com/people/PlantBasedStrategies/100093201350569/Memorable Quote“There is a demand. People are curious about flavors. People want to be a little bit healthier. Flexitarianism is on the rise completely. So it's a lot of different things. It's about the menu. It's about training the staff and understanding when somebody says–Oh, I'm vegan–you don't offer them butter on the table.”Show Notes

No pilots in the family. No money for it.

Welcome to Art is Awesome, the show where we talk with an artist or art worker with a connection to the San Francisco Bay Area.  Today, Emily chats with Jonathon Keats — conceptual artist, experimental philosopher, and writer based in San Francisco. He has sold his thoughts, copyrighted his brain, choreographed a ballet for honeybees, and written six books. He contributes to Art in America, Popular Science, and Wired, and has exhibited at LACMA and Modernism Gallery SF. Jonathon discusses Centuries of the Bristlecone, an 11-foot-tall dual pendulum clock on permanent display at the Nevada Museum of Art in Reno. The clock, created in partnership with the Long Now Foundation, tells both atomic time and arboreal time — time as experienced by ancient bristlecone pine trees that can live up to 5,000 years. The project took over a decade to realize, with clockmakers Phil Abernathy and Brittany Cox. About Artist Jonathon Keats: Jonathon Keats is an artist, writer and experimental philosopher.

TESTO DELL'ARTICOLO ➜ https://www.bastabugie.it/8612SAN GOAR, IL PATRONO DEI DISTRATTIdi Roberto de Mattei Chi sono i distratti? Sono coloro che non mantengono o faticano a mantenere l'attenzione su ciò che stanno facendo. In sé stessa la distrazione non è una qualità, perché la perfezione consiste nel fare sempre bene ciò che si sta facendo. Nostro Signore ne è un esempio perfetto.Ma la distrazione non è sempre e necessariamente un difetto. Dipende da ciò a cui si volge la mente, quando presta poca attenzione a ciò che sta facendo.Il cardinale Giuseppe Siri, ad esempio, parla di "distrazione" per definire una mente che appunto si distrae dalle cose essenziali, per dirigersi verso quelle effimere, variabili e inconsistenti. La distrazione diventa un continuo rivolgersi a questo e a quello senza mai approfondire.Ma esiste anche una distrazione che deriva non da cattiva volontà, ma da un'intelligenza creativa, o da un'immaginazione vivace per cui cervello è continuamente attraversato da associazioni di idee, intuizioni. È questione di temperamento. Sono persone che fanno fatica a concentrarsi sugli aspetti pratici della vita quotidiana. Molti artisti, inventori, scienziati e scrittori erano considerati "distratti". Erano così immersi nel loro mondo da dimenticare l'orologio, gli oggetti o perfino i pasti.SANTI DISTRATTIAnche tra i santi non mancano coloro che, per natura, distratti. Molti santi erano persone estremamente concrete e organizzate. Pensiamo a San Giovanni Bosco capace di amministrare le sue opere con straordinaria precisione. Altri, invece, apparivano spesso "assenti", perché completamente immersi nella riflessione su questioni alte e divine. Bisogna distinguere la distrazione come fragilità umana dalla "distrazione" apparente dovuta al raccoglimento della mente, che si astrae dalle questioni concrete per immergersi in quelle più elevate. Una mente che ogni tanto si perde può avere un cuore profondamente unito a Dio. E un cuore unito a Dio, anche con qualche dimenticanza, può diventare davvero santo. È noto, ad esempio, che San Filippo Neri fosse talvolta così assorto nella preghiera da dimenticare il tempo.Alcuni santi erano metodici (come Sant'Ignazio di Loyola), altri impulsivi (come San Pietro), altri ancora sembravano distratti perché vivevano con una forte vita interiore.  La santità non consiste nell'avere un determinato carattere, ma nel lasciare che ogni tratto della propria personalità venga trasformato dall'amore di Dio.San Goar, ad esempio, è uno di quei santi poco conosciuti ma affascinanti, nella cui vita troviamo un sorprendente esempio di distrazione.Nacque in Aquitania, probabilmente tra la fine del VI e l'inizio del VII secolo, alle origini del Regno dei Franchi. Ordinato sacerdote, desiderava una vita più raccolta e più vicina a Dio. Per questo lasciò la sua terra e si si fece costruire un eremitaggio nella valle del Reno, allora ancora in parte pagana, nella diocesi di Treviri.Scelse di vivere come eremita, ma non da isolato. Costruì una piccola cappella e una cella, dedicando le giornate alla preghiera, e all'accoglienza dei viandanti. La caratteristica che lo rese famoso fu l'ospitalità. Chiunque bussasse alla sua porta trovava un pasto, un letto, una parola di conforto e una guida spirituale. In un'epoca in cui i viaggi erano lunghi e pericolosi, la sua casa divenne un rifugio sicuro per pellegrini, mercanti e naviganti del Reno.Per questo è venerato come patrono degli albergatori, degli osti, dei barcaioli, dei vignaioli e dei vasai. PATRONO DEI DISTRATTILa sua popolarità suscitò l'invidia di alcuni ecclesiastici, che lo accusarono falsamente davanti al vescovo di Treviri dicendo che faceva del suo eremitaggio un'osteria, perché contrariamente al costume degli eremiti, mangiava attorniato da una folla di viaggiatori, a cui offriva cibi eccellenti. Accadde però che i suoi due accusatori, nel viaggio di ritorno a Treviri, smarrirono le vettovaglie che portavano per il viaggio. Esausti e divorati dalla fame, attendevano sulla strada che qualcuno li soccorresse, Fu proprio Goar il loro salvatore. Il santo che faceva lo stesso percorso per andare a giustificarsi dal vescovo, li guarì e li rifocillo, convincendoli della sua innocenza. Giunto a Treviri, entrato nell'anticamera del palazzo vescovile, appese il suo mantello ad un raggio di sole, scambiandolo per un bastone. Il mantello però rimase miracolosamente sospeso nell'aria, davanti agli occhi dei presenti Questo prodigio, dovuto alla sua distrazione, dimostrò la sua innocenza e mise in luce la malizia dei suoi accusatori.L'episodio in cui San Goar appese il mantello a un raggio di sole fa riflettere. La sua fu una santa distrazione. Si può immaginare che, assorto nella serenità di chi vive costantemente alla presenza di Dio, abbia compiuto il gesto con la naturalezza con cui si appende un mantello a un bastone. Era una "santa distrazione" che non nasceva dalla superficialità, ma da un cuore così unito a Dio da non essere più prigioniero dei calcoli umani. San Goar viene anche invocato contro le calunnie e le false accuse. Il re Sigeberto III, desiderò nominarlo vescovo di Treviri, ma Goar rifiutò. Non perché disprezzasse l'episcopato, ma perché riteneva che Dio lo avesse chiamato a servire nel nascondimento. Preferì tornare alla sua povera cella e continuare ad accogliere i pellegrini. Dopo la sua morte, avvenuta il 6 luglio (tradizionalmente nel 575 o, secondo altre cronologie, nel 649), la sua tomba divenne una meta di pellegrinaggio. Intorno al suo romitaggio nacque una cittadina che ancora oggi porta il suo nome: Sankt Goar, sulle rive del Reno. Le antiche Vitae lo descrivono come un uomo profondamente raccolto in Dio, ma la sua contemplazione non lo allontanava dal prossimo: chi arrivava alla sua porta era sempre accolto con delicatezza. I santi più contemplativi sembrano talvolta assenti rispetto alle cose materiali, ma diventano sorprendentemente presenti quando si tratta di amare Dio e il prossimo. È questo che ci ricorda San Goar, che ci piacerebbe immaginare come un possibile patrono dei distratti.

Congress may have postponed action on the Take Care of America's Veterans Act, but the fight to protect future veterans is far from over. Rob and Brittany are joined by Kristina Keenan and Ryan Gallucci to recap a historic week of VFW advocacy, explain how nearly 100 VFW members helped educate lawmakers on Capitol Hill and discuss why the organization remains firmly opposed to funding expanded veterans legislation by reducing future disability compensation.   The conversation examines the outcome of the House vote, the growing momentum behind the VFW's grassroots advocacy campaign and why the organization believes Congress should never establish a precedent for legislating VA disability ratings. Ryan also shares highlights from his recent visit to Germany with Junior Vice Commander-in-Chief Glenn Umberger, where they met with service members, military leaders and overseas VFW members to better understand the challenges facing today's force.   Later in the episode, Rob and Brittany sit down with the founders of Unmasked Warrior—Dr. Mike Sapiro, Sam Juan, Anton Nootenboom and Noah Galloway—to discuss how storytelling can become a powerful tool for healing, connection and veteran mental health. The group shares the inspiration behind their new live experience and why every veteran's story has the power to help someone else.   The episode concludes with a preview of the 127th VFW National Convention in Reno, Nevada, where members from across the country will help shape the organization's legislative priorities and continue advocating for veterans, service members and their families.   Hosts Rob Couture – Director, VFW Public Affairs & Strategic Outreach Brittany Dymond Murray – Associate Director, VFW Public Affairs & Strategic Outreach   Featured Guests Kristina Keenan – Director, VFW National Legislative Service Ryan Gallucci – Executive Director, VFW Washington Office Dr. Mike Sapiro – Co-founder, Unmasked Warrior Sam Juan – Co-founder, Unmasked Warrior Anton Nootenboom – Co-founder, Unmasked Warrior Noah Galloway – Co-founder, Unmasked Warrior   Episode Highlights 0:00 Intro and Roll Call 2:16 Take Care of America's Veterans Act postponed 6:11 The aftermath of the House vote and online reaction 9:21 Alternative funding proposed for the Major Richard Star Act 15:35 The standalone Major Richard Star Act gains momentum 20:28 Why Section 108 sets a dangerous precedent 35:45 Ryan's visit to Germany with Junior Vice Commander-in-Chief Glenn Umberger 40:09 New VFW Action Alert and how members can help 45:05 Preview of the 127th VFW National Convention 53:39 Still Serving Spotlight: Unmasked Warrior 1:17:20 Good of the Order   Links & Resources VFW Action Alert https://www.vfw.org/actioncorps 127th VFW National Convention https://www.vfw.org/media-and-events/latest-releases/archives/2026/7/127th-vfw-national-convention Unmasked Warrior https://www.unmaskedwarrior.com Afghanistan War Commission https://www.afghanistanwarcommission.senate.gov/

We tend to understand and acknowledge that what we say matters. But I find an increasing lack of attention to how we say things. And yet we make conscious and unconscious judgments about people regarding how they are talking, that sometimes become more important than whatever it is they might actually be saying. This is a focus on being aware of our own speech patterns and habits and how they may be hampering our desire to really connect with others. My guest is Valerie Fridland, professor of linguistics in the English Department at the University of Nevada, Reno. As a sociolinguist, Valerie studies how language interacts with society and examines how factors like geography, social class, age, gender, and ethnicity shape accents, vocabulary, and grammar with a focus on how the way we speak impacts the way we think about and talk to one another.

Creativity through the lens of an Artist, Author and Art Teacher,"Nature has been my greatest art teacher."Marquiss has been a professional artist, art teacher and writer in Bend, Oregon, for 34 years, and the author of Behind the Painting – An Artist's Memoir, published May 7, 2026.She developed her interest in art as a child, surrounded by the lush beauty of the Willamette Valley in Oregon. Marquiss attended both the University of Oregon and UCLA, earning her Bachelor of Science degree in psychology. After graduating she became the Marketing Director for the first private psychiatric hospital in Reno, Nevada, and then a product manager for HCA in Nashville, TN.When her daughter was born, she left her corporate career and returned to her art and writing. “I focused primarily on watercolor because it can be surprising and has a beautiful transparency. Painting with watercolor also teaches about control – when to take it and when to let go –as in life,” she explains. “The abstract cruciform design followed - after years of painting large format florals.”Her recent memoir holds ten of her paintings and a personal story behind each one over a thirty year period. Over time, her paintings created a circular language between her art and her life.This book takes the reader on artistic adventures in Paris and Southern France, the process of finding her artistic style and through tough challenges she faced including divorce, family suicide, a stroke and cancer.As a character voice actor, her daughter Katherine Tole joined Marquiss on the audiobook edition.Her original art and book information can be seen at www.marymarquiss.com.Send us Fan Mail

My guest today is Steven C. Hayes, PhD. Steve is a clinical psychologist, researcher, and one of the most influential figures in modern psychotherapy. He is the originator of Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), developer of Relational Frame Theory (RFT), and co-developer of Process-Based Therapy. An Emeritus Professor at the University of Nevada, Reno, Dr. Hayes has authored more than 45 books and over 700 scientific publications, making him one of the most cited psychologists in the world. His work has fundamentally changed how clinicians understand and treat human suffering, with a focus on psychological flexibility, values, and living a meaningful life.Some of the topics we explore include:Why the original ACT Hexaflex needs to expand — and what's missing from the classic six processesHow to define ACT functionally so it can grow without losing its identityThe case for adding sociocultural and biophysiological levels to the psychological flexibility modelWhat Process-Based Therapy (PBT) actually is — and why it's both a Trojan horse and an open invitationWhy middle-level clinical terms like "emotional flexibility" are scientifically legitimate and practically essentialThe ergodicity problem: why group-level research can't tell us what works for individual people — and what to do insteadThree principles for the future of clinical practice: practice-based evidence, every voice matters, and if you're not personalizing, you're not treating—————————————————————————Steve's Website: https://stevenchayes.com/—————————————————————————Thank you all for checking out the episode!

This is the story of my Rock and Roll Butler. Welcome to the Rock and Roll Geek Show. 00:00:23 My name is Michael Butler. Thanks a lot for joining me. I really appreciate it. 00:00:27 Today is Monday, July 13, 2026. I am somewhere on the road, on the way, we’re driving today to Winnemucca, Nevada. We left San Francisco this morning, rented a Penske truck. 00:00:48 I picked up the Penske truck at 9 o’clock a.m. I told you in the last episode it cost me $3,600. 00:00:56 That’s actually not true. It actually cost me five big ones, because your credit card company and your auto insurance doesn’t cover truck rental. We are in a 16-foot Penske truck driving it across the country, all the way from San Francisco to an undisclosed location in New York, upstate New York. 00:01:23 We’re expecting it to take us 46 hours. It’s going to go over eight days, that’s the plan. We flew into San Francisco on Thursday, stayed at a hotel at JFK on Wednesday night, the TWA Hotel. 00:01:40 Compliments of the undisclosed person traveling with me. Thank you very much. Beautiful undisclosed person. 00:01:48 Had a good time. We drank a lot. Let’s put it that way. 00:01:53 We had a fun time. TWA Hotel is an interesting hotel. It’s set up like the old TWA Airlines. 00:02:04 They even have a cocktail lounge in an airplane. It’s quite interesting. Pretty expensive, but it was fun. I wouldn’t have been able to afford it, but the undisclosed person put in the bill, and 00:02:16 I very much appreciate it, I’ve got to tell you. So then we flew into San Francisco on Friday. We met up with Craig and his wife, Pam, and their friend Dianne. 00:02:34 Is it Dianne or Diana, or something like that? Super nice woman. We went to Oakland, met with them for drinks and dinner, and we stayed in an Airbnb in Oakland, which was left a little bit to be desired, the Airbnb, but it had a shower, let’s put it that way. Then we drove all the way to Ukiah, met up with Casey, Casey Crenshaw, and the girls 00:02:59 in Featherwitch. It was Erica’s husband’s birthday, and they were having a cake party, so we stopped, a cake, not a keg, a cake party. We stopped in there for some cake, and it was nice to see the Featherwitch girls, haven’t seen them in a long time. And of course, there was talk about getting the band back together and all that, and I’m 00:03:15 holding my breath for that one, girls. Then we drove to Ukiah and stayed at a hotel in Ukiah, and then on Saturday, I had a Chad gig up in Fortuna, which is near Eureka. We opened up for a band called Shenandoah. 00:03:33 That was a fun show, a lot of people there, a good crowd, and they liked us. As usual, people thought that I was not a country guy, more of a rock and roll guy, but they seemed to like it, at least the kids that were shouting my name, holding up the metal horns, liked me. There was a cute little punk rock couple dressed as cowboys, and they were line dancing while we were playing. 00:03:55 It was fun. So then after that, the next morning, Sunday morning, we got up and drove all the way to the Mountain House and picked up the rest of my shift from the Mountain House, and then drove all the way to San Francisco and stayed at Don’s Basement on Sunday night. There was nobody else there because the kids are being withheld, the grandkids are being withheld from Michael Butler, from Papa, because Papa’s an asshole, apparently. 00:04:24 I don’t know. I’m not going to get into that, but yeah, we stayed there, went to the Pinsky Truck Company this morning, drove it back to the house in San Francisco, loaded that Pinsky Truck up with all my guitars, all my amps. Did I tell you how much the Pinsky Truck cost? 00:04:42 Well, see, the insurance, your insurance doesn’t cover it. It doesn’t cover the lost damage waiver. Your credit cards don’t cover it. 00:04:50 You have to buy the lost damage waiver. They’re walking around showing every scratch. So I had to get the lost damage waiver, which costs $1,000, actually $900 and change. 00:05:01 So this truck ended up costing me close to $5,000. Did I mention that I need some donations? By the way, thank you, Ralph Miller, for contributing to the Pinsky Truck Fund. 00:05:13 You donated $125. Thank you very much, Ralph. You’re a great man, I’ll tell you. 00:05:18 If you’d like to help contribute, it would be much appreciated. It’s $5,000 for a truck, not counting gas. We just pulled over for gas right outside Lake Tahoe. 00:05:27 $6.99 a gallon. 00:05:30 I never paid $6.99 a gallon since Joe Biden was president. I think I paid close to that. 00:05:37 But yeah, $6.99 a gallon. So we’re driving to Winnemucca, Nevada. 00:05:42 We’re going to stay there tonight. We put into the AI route us to some places with some good dive bars. This place is telling us to go to Winnemucca. 00:05:53 Hold on, I’ll take you to some of this water. I can’t wait to have a beer. The undisclosed, beautiful undisclosed person is driving the Pinsky truck right now. 00:06:07 I drove the whole way, but I needed to get a podcast in. She’s going to take us into Reno. Stopping at Winnemucca. 00:06:14 The chat GPT said there’s a couple of great bars in Winnemucca. Walking distance from the hotel. Or it’s actually a motel. 00:06:24 So we’re pulling into the motel. We’re going to park the Pinsky truck and walk to one of the two dive bars it suggested. Billy the Kid’s Hole in the Wall. 00:06:34 No, is it? Butch Cassidy’s Hole in the Wall. And there was another one. 00:06:37 I forget what it’s called. So we’re going to do that tonight. And then we’re going to get up in the morning and drive somewhere on the route to Catskills of New York. 00:06:48 So if you’re along that route, please hit me up friends. I would love to meet up with you. A few people have. 00:06:57 And we’re hoping to meet up with some of them. Depends on where we are. But thank you everybody who’s offered to meet up so far. 00:07:04 Please look at the route from Winnemucca, Nevada to Catskills of New York. And let’s meet up friends. So that’s the update for day one. 00:07:18 The dive bar road trip. The dive bar road trip with all Butler’s shit in the back of the Pinsky truck. I got about 30 guitars. 00:07:27 An SVT-810. An SVT-410. A little PV-412. 00:07:34 Bass amp. All the bass heads. What else do I have? 00:07:43 The PV Mark IV that I’ve had since the Stevie Stiletto days. Two kayaks. A log splitter. 00:07:54 An electric bike. Which I’m selling. So if anybody wants an electric bike, hit me up. 00:08:03 What else do I have? All of my albums. About 1,000 record albums. 00:08:08 All my rock and roll books. Which is about 2,000 rock and roll books. All my clothes. 00:08:17 And various other things. Driving it across the country. Goodbye, California. 00:08:24 I’m coming back on the 24th because I have an AZDZ gig. And then I’m going to fly right back. Yes, it costs me money to play. 00:08:33 Yes, I’m paying to play. But hey, I want to play. And I have not found a band yet in New York. 00:08:37 I will. I’ll find more than one band in New York. But I like playing with Chad. 00:08:41 I like playing with the Butlers. And I like playing with the AZDZ band. And I like playing with the Plunkets. 00:08:46 And every other band that I’m in. As long as I can do it, I’m going to do it. Damn it. 00:08:53 Why not? But in the meantime, we’re going to enjoy these eight days on the road. And in honor of this road trip. 00:09:01 This dive bar road trip. With the beautiful undisclosed person at the wheel. I’m going to be playing all songs about the road. 00:09:11 And we’re going to start off with the first one. By the great band Foghat. Eight Days on the Road. 00:09:18 I think this is from the Rock and Roll album. It’s got a rock and a roll. And like a dinner roll on the cover. 00:09:24 This one goes out to you, Chuck Spear. Because I know he’s a huge Foghat fan. He’s a fan of the hat. 00:09:30 All right. I will talk to you tomorrow. There’s a little update from the road. 00:09:36 It’s beautiful on this drive. I’ll tell you. We’re right outside Lake Tahoe. 00:09:40 And there’s all kinds of mountains. It’s just a beautiful view. 00:09:44 Not worth the $6.99 a gallon gas. But yeah. 00:09:48 All right. Thank you for listening, friends. If you get any value out of these daily updates. 00:09:54 Little dog days in advance. In July. If you get any value. 00:10:01 You’d really be helping me out with this road trip. Helping me out with the Penske truck. Rental. 00:10:07 I’m putting it all on the credit card. So at least I’ll get some points. I think. 00:10:11 I’ll get some time to pay it off. 22% interest. Yes. 00:10:17 The end is in sight. What do you call it? The end of the rainbow is going to be worth it. 00:10:25 I’m convinced of it. Because I like the person I’m with. And it’s going to be a lot better than it was. Hopefully the grandkids will 00:10:37 eventually come back into my life. But we’ll see. It’s not my doings. 00:10:43 And that’s all I can say of that. Because the last episode I got a bunch of shit about talking about my family life. But hey. 00:10:51 I’m public enemy number one. Enough of this. I’m not going to give you my problems. 00:10:56 Thank you for listening. It’s going to be great. It’s going to work out great. And it’s all going to end 00:11:04 like everybody wants it to end. Except I won’t be dead. I’ll talk to you soon. 00:11:11 Please keep the donations coming. Without your donations this show will die. A horrible, putrid, stench filled death. 00:11:16 Rockandrollgeek.com I’d love to meet up with you. Find me on the Facebook. 00:11:23 Rockandrollgeek Facebook group. Going strong. And thank you to Kirk Crawford for not sending me that new Rolling Stones album. 00:11:30 Which I have not listened to yet. But I’m going to. I’ll talk to you tomorrow. 00:11:35 Here’s Foghat. Eight days on the road. 00:12:19 Rockandrollgeek.com 00:12:41 Rockandrollgeek.com Rockandrollgeek.com Ain’t no rest tonight. 00:12:57 Broken, busted. Standing on a county line. I’ve been traveling. 00:13:06 Eight days on the road. That’s right. Eight days on the road. 00:13:17 Driving me through the night. There ain’t no time. Ain’t no time. 00:13:24 Ain’t no rest tonight. 00:13:40 I’m out here thinking. Thinking about what I’ve done. That’s why. 00:13:49 That’s why. Eight days on the road. That’s right. 00:13:56 Eight days on the road. Driving me through the night. I’m coming home. 00:14:06 I won’t be long.

It's 1980, a decade after he dropped out of grad school, and Paul Bishop is a lowly writing instructor at a college in Nevada. His former best friend, Tom Corbin is now the celebrated poet that Paul once dreamed of being, but shortly after visiting Paul in Reno, Tom is murdered. The story focuses on Paul's crippling guilt, Tom's wife's ongoing love for her cheating husband, and the difficult girlfriend both Paul and Tom betrayed a decade before. After Tom's death, all three are forced to confront their grief and painful memories. A Moment's Surrender (Press Americana, 2026) is a thoughtful and literary deep dive into guilt, marriage, and loyalty.  John Burt has taught English at Brandeis University since 1983. He is the author of three volumes of poetry: The Way Down (1988), Work without Hope (1996), and Victory (2007). His scholarly books include Lincoln's Tragic Pragmatism (2013) and Robert Penn Warren and American Idealism (1988). He is also the editor of The Collected Poems of Robert Penn Warren (1998), and Robert Penn Warren's Brother to Dragons: A Parallel Text Critical Edition of the 1953 and 1979 versions (forthcoming). Since 1984 he has sung in an ensemble devoted to the polyphonic folk songs and religious music of the Republic of Georgia, and he transcribes and engraves music from Georgia for other singers and ensembles to use.

A Dakar-designed Ford Raptor T1 is about to find out what American desert racing feels like, and we're here for every gritty detail. We sit down with Matt Martelli, CEO of Unlimited Off-Road Racing, to talk about why Ford chose the Casey Folks Vegas to Reno run for the Raptor T1's American debut and what makes this run so different from the rough-and-tumble world of Baja-style courses. Think long distance, high speed, and a 550-mile day that stresses cooling, electrical systems, and durability in a way most racing formats never touch.We also get into the fun rabbit holes only off-road racing can create: what “unlimited” really means when trucks push 1,000-plus horsepower, 40-inch tires, and suspension travel measured in feet, not inches. Matt shares why the sport still leaves room for the garage-built crowd alongside multi-million-dollar teams, and we revisit the roots of short course and stadium racing through the legacy of Mickey Thompson. If you love motorsports history, fabrication culture, and the way racing tech shapes production vehicles like the Raptor and Bronco, this one hits hard.Then we pivot to the headlines: a Ford worker fired over a $1.95 cookie, and the growing trend of drivers downgrading from premium gas to regular to save money. We break down what modern ECUs and knock sensors actually do, when premium is required versus recommended, and why the real tradeoff is often performance, not instant damage.Listen now, subscribe so you don't miss the next drop, and if you enjoyed the show, share it with a fellow car nerd and leave us a quick review.

What happens when you build a studio in an industrial zone…and still end up in court for making records?My guest today is Toby Suess, drummer, engineer, and owner of Tinroof Recording in Fallon, Nevada - a studio that started as nothing more than a rehearsal space and grew into a full hybrid recording room with a killer drum sound. Toby has recorded everything from punk bands to singer-songwriters, dialed in his live room, rebuilt a broken console card-by-card, and learned how to get great drum tones using ribbons, condensers, overhead techniques, and detailed tuning.In this episode, Toby walks through the real-world evolution of building a studio on a budget - wiring rooms, treating windows, learning gear, adding outboard pres, integrating a Toft console, and figuring out how to track and mix drums with confidence. We talk about recording through compression, getting mixes nearly finished while tracking, checking phase during the mix, blending guitar mics through a Radial summing box, and why great drum recordings still start with tuning, players, and the room.And then we get into the wild part - Toby's studio ended up in a legal battle despite having a business license and being fully located in an industrial zone. Toby shares the whole story: sheriff visits, confused neighbors, gathering decibel readings, talking to the D.A., bringing evidence to court, getting the case dismissed, smoothing things out with neighbors afterward, and eventually earning the right to operate without interruption. It's a powerful reminder that musicians can stand up for their creative work and win.We close with mixing philosophies, self-doubt, imposter syndrome, confidence, and pushing through the uncomfortable parts of building a career - plus why his studio now attracts bands from Reno and even the Bay Area.Get access to FREE mixing mini-course: https://MixMasterBundle.comTHANKS TO OUR SPONSORS!http://UltimateMixingMasterclass.comhttps://usa.sae.edu/ https://www.izotope.com Use code ROCK10 to get 10% off!https://www.native-instruments.com Use code ROCK10 to get 10% off!https://www.spectra1964.comhttps://gracedesign.com/https://RecordingStudioRockstars.com/Academyhttps://www.thetoyboxstudio.com/Listen to the podcast theme song “Skadoosh!” https://solo.to/lijshawmusicListen to this guest's discography on Spotify:https://open.spotify.com/playlist/4ZzemQ39O2Q37gSFiJ2exs?si=kYYcKVRISl2p0ncl88UKBgIf you love the podcast, then please leave a review: https://RSRockstars.com/ReviewCLICK HERE FOR COMPLETE SHOW NOTES AT: https://RSRockstars.com/566

Congress may have delayed action on the Take Care of America's Veterans Act, but the conversation surrounding the legislation is far from over. Rob and Brittany are joined by Kristina Keenan, Mike Figlioli and Gabby Kubinyi to break down the latest developments, explain why the VFW remains opposed to paying for expanded veterans legislation by reducing future disability compensation, and discuss what advocates are hearing during meetings with lawmakers on Capitol Hill.   The discussion examines how the proposed changes could affect future veterans seeking disability compensation for conditions like tinnitus and sleep apnea, why Congress legislating disability ratings would be unprecedented, and how the version of the Major Richard Star Act included in the package differs from the standalone legislation the VFW continues to support.   The conversation also explores the history behind the VFW's decades-old political cartoon that has recently resurfaced in public debate, emphasizing the organization's longstanding tradition of advocacy on behalf of veterans. Rob and Brittany also highlight the success of the VFW's grassroots Action Alert campaign, discuss preparations for the 2026 VFW National Convention in Reno, and introduce new training opportunities designed to help members become even more effective advocates.   Hosts Rob Couture – Director, VFW Public Affairs & Strategic Outreach Brittany Dymond Murray – Associate Director, VFW Public Affairs & Strategic Outreach   Featured Guests Kristina Keenan – Director, VFW National Legislative Service Mike Figlioli – Chief of Staff, VFW Washington Office Gabby Kubinyi – Deputy Director, VFW National Legislative Service   Episode Highlights 0:00 Intro and Roll Call   4:58 Update on the Take Care of America's Veterans Act   7:04 Why grassroots advocacy on Capitol Hill matters   13:03 Survivor benefits and the Love Lives On Act   17:37 How proposed disability rating changes could affect future veterans   21:19 Why Congress changing VA disability ratings is unprecedented   31:22 The Major Richard Star Act explained   40:27 The history behind the VFW's political cartoon   55:28 Action Alert surpasses 50,000 messages to Congress   59:25 Preview of the 2026 VFW National Convention   1:14:01 New advocacy training for VFW members   1:16:42 Good of the Order   Links & Resources Mentioned VFW Action Alert – Tell Congress to Oppose Veterans' Benefit Cuts https://www.vfw.org/media-and-events/latest-releases/archives/2026/6/vfw-action-alert-tell-congress-to-oppose-veterans-benefit-cuts  Major Richard Star Act (H.R. 2102) https://www.congress.gov/bill/119th-congress/house-bill/2102  Ask the VFW https://www.vfw.org/ask-the-vfw  127th VFW National Convention (Reno, Nevada) https://www.vfw.org/media-and-events/latest-releases/archives/2026/7/127th-vfw-national-convention  VFW National Legislative Service https://www.vfw.org/advocacy  Defense POW/MIA Accounting Agency (DPAA) https://www.dpaa.mil/ 

The Battle of the Little Bighorn didn't end when George Armstrong Custer fell. Four miles to the south, the surviving seven companies of the 7th Cavalry, under Major Marcus Reno and Captain Frederick Benteen, were pinned down on a barren hilltop and fighting for their lives. A battle that would result in two days of thirst, sniping, desperate charges, and over two dozen Medals of Honor. We'll also discuss Dr. Henry Porter's makeshift field hospital, the rescue by General Terry and Colonel Gibbon, and the burial of the dead. Then we dig into the reckoning: the Reno Court of Inquiry, Frederick Whittaker's crusade to blame Custer's subordinates, the surrenders of Crazy Horse and Sitting Bull, and the 1980 Supreme Court case and the billion-dollar settlement the Lakota still refuse to this day.   Wild West Quiz - https://wildwestquiz.com/   Check out the website! https://www.wildwestextra.com/   Email me! https://www.wildwestextra.com/contact/   Free Newsletter! https://wildwestjosh.substack.com/   Buy Me A Coffee!  https://buymeacoffee.com/wildwest   Join Patreon for ad-free bonus content! https://www.patreon.com/wildwestextra   Merch! https://wildwestextramerch.com/   Custer's Last Stand! https://www.wildwestextra.com/custers-last-stand-hero-or-fool/ Learn more about your ad choices.

Just stop for a moment and take in what's happening across the country right now. Conservatism isn't merely resurging — it's conducting a full forensic audit on the left's greatest hits, and the findings are hilarious.Start with the good stuff. Trump Accounts are live, giving kids — especially black and brown kids — a real shot at building generational wealth. The same guy the media spent eight years calling a raging racist is out here potentially turning minority children into millionaires. And what will the Democrats do once those kids cash in? Tax the hell out of them to fund another round of drag queen story hours and “equity” consultants. It's the circle of leftist life: Trump builds the ladder, Democrats show up to kick it over and charge rent on the rungs.Speaking of people who think they're above the law, meet Zohran Mamdani, the mayor who announced he won't let ICE arrest illegal immigrants in his city. Trump's reply was chef's kiss: “Then we'll arrest him.” The irony is thicker than Newsom's hair gel. The sanctuary-city tough guy who wants to shield lawbreakers from federal enforcement suddenly discovers that “sanctuary” doesn't come with diplomatic immunity for himself. Try playing border cop from city hall and see how fast the feds flip the script.Team Trump is also cleaning house on the judicial side. Articles of impeachment have been filed against foreign-born activist Judge Sparkle Sooknanan for blocking efforts to keep illegal immigrants from voting. Sparkle. A federal judge named Sparkle. Sounds less like jurisprudence and more like the headliner at a Reno casino revue. The left spent years screaming about “threats to democracy,” yet here they are defending judges who weaponize the bench to protect non-citizen voting. The hypocrisy is so thick you could spread it on toast.Now for RINO theater. Mitch McConnell has finally been exposed as the political corpse he's been for years. The establishment kept him upright like a Weekend at Bernie's routine — or should we call it Weekend at Biden's? Now sources confirm he's braindead and on life support. With actual Americans running things, his wife is suddenly getting the full investigative treatment.

El negocio del divorcio La ciudad de Reno se sumerge en el caos después de que un francotirador sin identificar dispara a una figura pública.

In this episode of The Psychedelic Podcast, Paul F. Austin welcomes Steven C. Hayes, Ph.D., originator of Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, creator of Relational Frame Theory, and one of the most cited psychologists in the world. Full Show Notes: https://thethirdwave.co/podcast/episode-363/?ref=278 Hayes reflects on his early experiences in the Summer of Love, why psychedelics were never meant to be treated as a party, and how those formative explorations helped shape his lifelong work on psychological flexibility. Paul and Steven explore what psychedelics can reveal about the nature of self, the role of preparation and context in safe outcomes, and why psychedelic therapy must not be reduced to a patented, "script and go" biomedical model. Their conversation also examines ACT, trauma, attachment, group experience, spiritual community, and the importance of honoring each person's unique path rather than forcing transformation into averages, labels, or protocols. Steven C. Hayes, Ph.D., is a Nevada Foundation Professor of Psychology Emeritus at the University of Nevada, Reno and President of the Institute for Better Health, a 45-year-old charitable organization that promotes quality in mental and behavioral health services. He is the originator of Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, creator of Relational Frame Theory, and a co-developer of Process-Based Therapy. Hayes has authored nearly 750 scientific articles and 48 books, including Get Out of Your Mind and Into Your Life and A Liberated Mind. His methods are distributed worldwide by the World Health Organization and other major scientific agencies, and are commonly used in psychedelic-assisted therapy. His TEDx talks and blogs have been viewed or read by more than five million people, and he is among the most cited psychologists in the world. Highlights: Psychedelics as tools of the mind The Summer of Love's unfinished lessons Self as context and spiritual awareness Why good trips feel like coming home ACT as psychological flexibility Preparation, safety, and lasting change The danger of "script and go" psychedelics Group ceremony and relational healing Particularity, averages, and human uniqueness Psychedelics beyond the therapy frame Episode Links: Steven's Website Steven on Medium Steven Instagram Steven on Linkedin Episode Sponsors: The Practitioner Certification Program by Third Wave's Psychedelic Coaching Institute.

In January 2008, 19-year-old Brianna Denison was staying with friends in Reno, Nevada during winter break. After a night out at a concert and local hangout spots, she returned to a house near the University of Nevada and fell asleep on the couch while her friends went to bed. She was last seen around 4:23 a.m., texting her boyfriend, with no indication anything was wrong. By morning, Brianna was gone. Her belongings were still inside the house, but signs quickly pointed to something violent: blood was found on the pillow she had been using, along with evidence suggesting she had been attacked while asleep. Investigators soon realized her disappearance was linked to a series of earlier assaults near the university involving a man who targeted women and took personal items from them. DNA evidence became the key breakthrough, linking the same unknown male profile from Brianna's case to multiple prior attacks. Months later, a tip led investigators to James Biela, whose DNA ultimately matched evidence from the crime scene. He was convicted of rape and murder and sentenced to death, and Brianna's case later led to “Brianna's Law,” changing how DNA is collected in Nevada. #TrueCrimeRecaps #BriannaDenison #BriannasLaw #JamesBiela #DNAEvidence #CaitlinDenison Learn more about your ad choices.

If you watch sports, whether the recent NBA finals or the ongoing World Cup matches, you may have noticed that the athletes aren't the only ones putting on a show. The announcers seem to be playing a beautiful game of their own, capturing the excitement and play-by-play of the game in a unique blend of sentence structure, elocution, and pitch. Linguists have even given this speech pattern a name: sports announcer talk. Sociolinguist and dialectologist Valerie Fridland joins Host Flora Lichtman to break down the patterns and rules of this register. Guest: Dr. Valerie Fridland is a professor of linguistics at the University of Nevada, Reno, and author of “Why We Talk Funny: The Real Story Behind Our Accents.” Other episodes you may enjoy: The Art And Science Of Trash Talk What The Sigma Is Algospeak?
