Listen to today's podcast... We never seem to be able to find ‘the time'.  Stop looking.  You will never find it.  It isn't lost.  You are living in it. So what kinds of things waste our time? 44.7% of the more than 10,000 people polled cited personal internet use as their #1 distraction at work. Today's Time Truth: If we fail to control the events in our life, then the events in our life will control us. Planning is key to performance. Not planning wastes time and energy. According to one survey the average worker admits to wasting away 2.09 hours per 8-hour workday, which is twice as much time as their employers expect. Take One Action Today To Build Your #Resiliency!      So Here are today's Tips For Building Resiliency and Celebrating National Time Management Month: Eliminate useless meetings. Insist on short, well-planned, morning stand-up meetings. They are the least likely to waste your time and interfere with your work. Stop thinking that you can multi-task. Prioritize and then break up your day accordingly. Don't move on to the next task until you've really completed the previous one. Not only will you do a better job when you're focused, you'll also force yourself to finish something within the time allotted. Come up for air. Productivity declines after a certain period, so pump up your productivity with scheduled breaks.

God has not run out of mercy—not for you, not today.On February 13, we're back in Titus 3—not to repeat ourselves, but to let the Word sink in before Sunday. Paul's message is crystal clear: you can bank on the gospel. “The saying is trustworthy.” This is not religious hype. This is a verdict.Today's focus is Titus 3:8–11—what happens after mercy finds you. Paul tells Titus, “Insist on these things.” Keep saying it. Keep affirming it. Don't let the gospel become background noise—because when grace becomes “just there,” we start treating Scripture like the stars: beautiful, constant… and ignored.But the gospel isn't decoration. It's oxygen.So here's the push: insist on grace—and then let grace produce a life that matches it. Not works to earn salvation, but good works as the fruit of salvation. The redeemed should be “careful to devote themselves to good works”—because this is what's excellent and profitable for people.And then Paul draws a hard line: avoid the pointless fights—the debates that don't make you look like Jesus. The controversies that loop forever. The divisive voices that love arguments more than the gospel. Protect the church. Keep the main thing the main thing.Today's episode is a call to stop treating the Word like it's casually available. Don't just let it be there. Read the whole chapter. Take it slow. And insist on the truth until it shapes your life.

AP correspondent Ed Donahue reports a man convicted of killing his wife and son in a notorious case wants a new trial.

El franco chileno Camilo Castro, de 41 años, pasó casi cinco meses encarcelado en Venezuela. Instalado en Colombia desde hacía años, se trasladó a Paraguachón (La Guajira) en la frontera con Venezuela para renovar su visado en junio de 2025. Y ahí, al cruzar del lado venezolano, se perdió su pista. Fue detenido de forma arbitraria, acusado falsamente de espionaje y terrorismo, incomunicado y torturado hasta su liberación el 15 de noviembre de 2025. “Un infierno en la Tierra”, así describe su cautiverio en la cárcel del Rodeo 1, en las afueras de la ciudad de Caracas, en el estado Miranda.  Camilo Castro es francés, de origen chileno. Su padre se instaló en Francia huyendo de la dictadura de Augusto Pinochet. Creció en Toulouse, en el sur de Francia, pero su atracción por América Latina lo llevó a vivir en México del 2010 al 2016 y luego a asentarse en Colombia, donde decidió instalar su proyecto de vida como profesor de yoga y con la construcción de una casa. Todo eso se vino abajo ese 26 de junio de 2025; lo que parecía una gestión administrativa simple para renovar el visado se conviertió en el inicio de un calvario que duraría cinco meses, encerrado en la prisión El Rodeo 1, en Venezuela, país en el que nunca había puesto un pie. RFI: ¿Cómo se encuentra emocional y físicamente? Camilo Castro: Físicamente, dejé de luchar y de sobrevivir como lo hacía en la cárcel. Entonces, la verdad, no me estoy cuidando mucho, pero necesito este tiempo de break y de cambio. Tengo que reapropiarme de la práctica de yoga y meditativa y, mentalmente, psicológicamente, me siento muy fuerte y, a la vez, extremadamente sensible todavía. RFI: Fue a la frontera con Venezuela para renovar el visado y lo detuvieron. ¿Cómo fueron esas primeras horas? Camilo Castro: Yo llego a la frontera del lado venezolano. Antes no tenía por qué ir del lado venezolano, pero ese año las autoridades me obligaron a hacerlo. Las autoridades colombianas antes me protegían y me decían que no fuera del lado venezolano para mi propia protección. Este año no, y al minuto que llego del lado venezolano, me agarran mi pasaporte y todas mis pertenencias, luego me las regresan ya sin mi plata, sin las llaves de mi moto. RFI: ¿Le roban? Camilo Castro: Me roban y ahí empieza el secuestro. Me dejan ahí todo el día y luego paso mi primera noche en otro lugar, en Maracaibo, en un sótano, en un lugar terrible, donde habían torturado a mucha gente, y empieza un interrogatorio con un agente de la DGCIM (Dirección General de Contrainteligencia Militar) que, de una, me avisa que me voy a quedar muchos años aquí en Venezuela, que soy un espía, un terrorista, y empieza el maltrato. Pasé cinco días encerrado en un sótano, esposado, encapuchado, donde tengo interrogatorios, donde a cada momento, cuando pregunto la hora, me dicen que son 21:00 y, después de cinco días de maltrato durmiendo en el piso, como le acabo de decir, encapuchado, sin poder bañarme, sin poder ir al baño cuando lo necesitaba, me llevan a mirar el sol un minuto. Fue uno de los momentos más increíbles de mi vida y de ahí me llevan supuestamente al aeropuerto para que regrese a mi casa y, en el momento que me sacan la capucha, estoy frente a una cárcel. RFI: Era la cárcel Rodeo 1, donde estuvo encerrado casi cinco meses. Ha denunciado que sufrió torturas psicológicas y también físicas en el Rodeo. ¿Nos puede explicar de qué manera le torturaban y también qué torturas físicas pudo ver en sus compañeros de celda? Camilo Castro: Para mí una de las cosas más difíciles fue la primera semana porque estaba totalmente aislado, encapuchado, esposado en el piso y en condiciones muy difíciles. Después, en el Rodeo 1, al principio, cuando yo llego, las primeras horas, para mí es una liberación, porque veo luz, porque veo rostros, veo sonrisas y me explican los compañeros que ya están ahí desde hace meses lo que les tardó a ellos entender. Es decir, no te preocupes, estás secuestrado, es un tema político, eso no tiene nada que ver contigo, es un teatro y me explican todo por lo que yo iba a pasar también. Es decir, los falsos procesos judiciales, las humillaciones, el polígrafo, las diferentes torturas… Y entonces llego de alguna forma en un contexto donde me preparan a lo que voy a vivir. RFI: ¿Y qué vivió? Camilo Castro: Todos los movimientos ahí se hacían de noche, tanto los falsos procesos judiciales. Nos llevaban a todos encapuchados, esposados, teníamos que estar en el piso, nos gritaban, nos insultaban, nos amenazaban de tortura, de muerte. Fuimos torturados también afuera en el patio, durante varias horas bajo el sol. La gente se desmayaba. Yo siempre escapé a las más grandes torturas físicas. Obviamente, tuve maltrato físico, pero, comparado con otros, fui, entre comillas, privilegiado. Y también porque, después de una visita consular, después de casi tres meses, yo denuncié muchísimas cosas y eso generó una gran tensión en la cárcel y de ahí nos comunicaron directamente los custodios. Después de esa visita consular, tenemos ahora que tratarles a ustedes, los extranjeros, mejor porque si regresan las embajadas y que ustedes se quejan otra vez, eso no nos conviene a nosotros. RFI: Hay un caso que le impactó especialmente, que fue el de un compañero de celda llamado Juan Farias. ¿Es duro? Camilo Castro: Sí, es muy duro. Hay momentos que no, pero hay veces que sí. Juan Farias fue mi bienvenida al Rodeo 1. Ya me hablaban de él antes de conocerlo. A ciertos compañeros los obligaron a mirar cómo Juan Farias era entubado, es decir, la tortura que él vivió [NDLR: Introducción de tubos por nariz, boca o recto para forzar alimentación o castigar, causando vómitos, hemorragias y trauma psicológico]. Me hablan de Juan también como de una persona muy inteligente, muy sabia, llena de espiritualidad, de una gran cordura. Este sistema lo destruyó. Luego tenían miedo de él y lo llamaban Juan Loco. Pasó de ser una persona increíble a una persona destruida. Y así es como lo recibo. Después de sus tres días de tortura de intubación. RFI: Usted ha denunciado también que sufrió agresiones sexuales por parte de agentes de la Dirección General de Contrainteligencia Militar.   Camilo Castro: Durante el traslado de Maracaibo al sótano de la DGCIM, estoy encapuchado y esposado. Fueron varias intimidaciones y me drogaron antes de entrar en ese coche, imagino que con escopolamina. Y el agente militarizado que estaba a mi izquierda era una mujer. Pasó un par de horas tocándome, tocando mi cuerpo, empujando y apoyándose sobre mis genitales, diciéndome cosas obscenas en la oreja, jugando con mis labios y al mismo tiempo manipulándome con mucha violencia.  RFI: ¿Cuál fue el momento más difícil de esos casi cinco meses?  Camilo Castro: Uno de los momentos más difíciles fue la supuesta llamada con mi familia, que se hizo muy tarde en Venezuela, es decir, en Francia. Eran las tres o cuatro de la madrugada. Insistí en no hacer esa llamada en ese momento y se burlaron de mí y de mi familia. Y efectivamente, ese día es el único día que mi familia había apagado su teléfono para descansar. Fue una bendición, en el sentido de que pude mandar un mensaje y que tuve la suerte de que les dio las ganas de mandarlo. De eso me enteré mucho después de mi liberación. Pero cuando salgo de ese intento de llamada, que fue para mí la única oportunidad de comunicar con el mundo exterior y de decir que estoy vivo, no lo puedo hacer directamente y regreso totalmente destruido a mi celda, llorando y pidiendo a Dios que ayude a América Latina. ¿Por qué tanto sufrimiento?  RFI: ¿Qué sabe de su liberación? ¿Qué transacciones se hicieron?  Camilo Castro: El mismo director de la cárcel, que también torturaba y que le daba gusto hacerlo, nos avisó y nos dijo: ‘Ustedes no se preocupen. Ustedes van a salir de aquí. Son nada más que monedas de cambio. Alguien que estuvo trabajando sobre mi caso me confesó que, efectivamente, Venezuela, su gobierno, esa dictadura, seguía con esa política de los rehenes porque le sacaban un provecho. Es decir, estamos ante unos criminales que sacan un provecho, ya sea político, económico u otro, con los rehenes extranjeros.  RFI: El 3 de enero Estados Unidos capturó a Nicolás Maduro. Desde entonces, la presidenta encargada, Delcy Rodríguez, está anunciando muchas medidas, presionada por Washington, que tutela en realidad el país. Entre estas medidas está la liberación de decenas de presos políticos y también la amnistía. ¿Qué opinión le merecen estas medidas? Camilo Castro: Bueno, estamos frente a gente que desde decenas de años trata de salvarse y de pintar una imagen de ellos como bonita y cool. Pero sabemos que son gente cuya base de su discurso es la mentira y la manipulación. Hoy en día intentan salvarse. Vendieron a su amigo a Maduro, ahora intentan salvarse y sabemos que esa amnistía puede ser muy peligrosa en el sentido de que, si no hay una liberación de todos los presos políticos y de toda la gente que fue perseguida políticamente o víctima de detención arbitraria, no es una verdadera amnistía. El temor es que intenten salvarse y que usen eso como pretexto para una amnesia de crímenes de lesa humanidad y violación de derechos humanos. Para que haya un proceso de reconciliación y de paz en Venezuela, es importante que se reconozca a las víctimas y que haya reparación. Que se reconozcan los crímenes y que se confronte a los responsables. RFI: Está trabajando con otros exprisioneros y la ONU para documentar esos crímenes. ¿Qué están haciendo exactamente? Camilo Castro: No es un trabajo fácil porque pasar tres, cinco o siete horas explicando con detalles las diferentes torturas y todo el proceso de injusticia, los falsos procesos judiciales, el teatro de esos procesos judiciales no es fácil en sí. Para muchos es muy difícil psicológicamente y es un trabajo largo. La dificultad es el reconocimiento para nosotros como víctimas de todas estas instituciones. Hasta el día de hoy no nos firman y no nos dan certificados que confirmen que fuimos víctimas de detención arbitraria y no solo de detención. RFI: ¿Es el caso del Estado francés? ¿Considera que no recibe el apoyo necesario? ¿No le reconocen el estatuto de víctima? Camilo Castro: Hasta el día de hoy no tengo respuesta. De forma oficiosa, me dicen que recibieron los correos. Hemos escrito una carta directamente al presidente, Emmanuel Macron, firmada por decenas de exprisioneros y familiares, entre las que está Ingrid Betancourt |NDLR: Secuestrada por las FARC entre 2002 y 2008]. Pero hasta ahora no hemos recibido respuesta. RFI: Usted había hecho su vida en Colombia. ¿Planea volver? ¿Puede volver? Camilo Castro: Ahora no puedo volver. Estoy en peligro. En la zona donde vivo, a mis amigos les sacaron plata. Mucha plata. Estoy a dos horas de la frontera y sabemos que hay una comunicación y una colaboración entre las autoridades colombianas y venezolanas corruptas con los grupos paramilitares que hay en Colombia. Sería muy peligroso para mí regresar hoy en día a Colombia, pero obviamente estoy lleno de esperanza. Nosotros, como latinoamericanos, tenemos que tener esperanza. Es nuestra gran fe: que haya un cambio en todos los países latinoamericanos. Espero poder regresar a Colombia y, obviamente, espero conocer Venezuela.

SHOW NOTES: Episode OverviewThe real estate market of 2026 demands sophisticated negotiation skills as inventory rises and days on market climb. This episode explores proven strategies from "Getting to Yes" by Fisher and Ury, providing practical tools for creating win-win outcomes in every transaction.Key Market Insights30-year mortgage rates hit 6.06% on January 9th lowest in nearly 3 yearsActive listings approaching pre-pandemic levels (just under 1 million vs. 1 million in 2019)Home price appreciation slowed to 1.5% year-over-yearEconomy lost 56,000 jobs in Q4 2025, signaling market normalizationThe Trust Opportunity88% of buyers use real estate agents; 91% would recommend them85% of sellers use agents; 87% would recommend them61% of business comes from referrals and repeat clientsBUT only 18% of buyers use the same agent again revealing a massive 69-point gap between satisfaction and retentionThe Four Principles of Win-Win NegotiationSeparate People from ProblemBe hard on issues, soft on peopleExample: "We've got a challenge with inspection items. Let's figure out how to address concerns while respecting everyone's position."Focus on Interests, Not PositionsAsk WHY behind the WHATQuestions: "What's most important to you?" "Tell me more about that."Invent Options for Mutual GainBrainstorm creative solutionsExample: "What if the seller provides a credit instead of repairs?"Insist on Objective CriteriaUse market data, comps, fair standards not emotionsAvoid "in my opinion"; use "based on comparable sales, here's what the market shows"Game-Changing Language"What's most important to you?""Help me understand...""Let me see what we can do""What if we could...?""Are you open to a suggestion?""Would it be helpful if...?"Six Deadly Negotiation MistakesNot listening talking over instead of asking questionsMaking it personal getting defensive or attackingFocusing only on your client's positionAssuming you know what they wantNegotiating while emotionalNegotiating via text/email (the biggest mistake)The Phone Call Advantage50% of email negotiations end in impasseFace-to-face communication is 34x more effective than email93% of communication is non-verbal (tone, expressions, body language)Only 6% of agents choose phone calls, yet they're the most powerful toolThe Volume AdvantageAverage agents: 5 transactions/year = negotiation practice every 2-3 monthsHigh-volume agents: 37+ transactions/year = weekly practice opportunitiesSolution: Practice with AI to build competencyAI Practice StrategyUse ChatGPT or Claude to role-play scenarios:Emotionally attached sellers resisting price adjustmentsBuyers whose friends contradict your adviceRecovery from client missteps during showingsPrompt example: "You are a homeowner who believes your house is worth more than comps indicate. I am your listing agent. Engage naturally, no narration."Mindset PrinciplesSee abundance, not scarcityHold people capable, not accountablePlay the long game create raving fans, not just closed transactionsAction StepsPick ONE principle to implement this weekPractice phone calls instead of texts for negotiationsUse AI to practice challenging scenariosFocus on relationship-building over single transactionsResourcesBook: "Getting to Yes" by Fisher and UryWeekly coaching: Windermere Path Calls (Thursdays, 10 AM)Podcast: "The Windermere Coaching Minute"Remember: Businesses that implement beat businesses that just understand.

If he's not willing to get counseling, it's time to say goodbye.Donate to Moody Radio: http://moodyradio.org/donateto/lovelanguageminuteSee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Law enforcement Explorer programs were created to mentor teens interested in policing. But decades of weak oversight created an environment where officers could manipulate that trust. Some exploited their roles, using their authority to groom, abuse, and silence the very teens they were entrusted to guide.Resources:RAINN – Rape, Abuse & Incest National Network: 24/7 hotline and resources for survivors of sexual assault and abuse.

Visitmalesurvivor.orgStaying Safe in Youth Law Enforcement Programs:If you or your child is involved in a Police Explorer program – or any youth mentorship run by law enforcement – there are steps you can take to reduce risk and create safer boundaries.Ask direct questions. Who runs the program? What are the policies around texting, ride-alongs, and one-on-one interactions? Are there rules that limit contact between adult officers and minors outside of scheduled events?Insist on transparency. Reputable programs should have clear, written guidelines about communication, supervision, and conduct. Ask to see them.Monitor ride-alongs. Know who your child is riding with, how long they're gone, and what the reporting procedures are.Watch the tech. Officers or advisors should never be Snapchatting, DMing, or texting minors privately. Monitor app usage and discuss healthy boundaries.Get involved. Show up to meetings. Get to know the adults running the program. Your presence as a parent or guardian helps make the space safer for everyone.Keep communication open. Let your child know they can talk to you about anything -- especially if something makes them uncomfortable. Make it clear that they won't be in trouble for speaking up.Getting Help:If you or someone you know has experienced abuse in a Police Explorer or similar youth program, here's what to do:Believe them. If a child or teen discloses abuse, believe what they say. Stay calm, listen, and affirm that it's not their fault. Praise them for coming forward.Report it. If the child is in danger, call 911. Otherwise, contact your local police, sheriff's department, or state child protection agency. If you're concerned local police might have a conflict of interest, contact your state police, state attorney general, or the FBI.Document/preserve everything. Save messages, screenshots, call logs — anything that could help support the report.Seek emotional support: Abuse by a trusted adult is incredibly disorienting. You and/or your child deserve compassionate care from someone trained in trauma -- like a therapist, school counselor, or crisis line advocate.Connect with survivor resources. Many organizations offer specialized support for young people.Consult legal counsel: Some survivors explore civil legal action against individuals or institutions. An attorney familiar with institutional abuse cases can help assess your options.Red Flags: Signs of Grooming or Abuse in Explorer Programs:Abuse by authority figures often begins with grooming -- a gradual, often-subtle process that builds trust before violating it. Here are common warning signs in youth law enforcement programs:“Special” treatment. One teen is singled out for attention, gifts, mentorship, or exclusive opportunities not given to others.Excessive one-on-one contact. Repeated private ride-alongs, late-night messages, or invitations to hang out off-duty.Private communication. The adult uses personal texting apps, Snapchat, Instagram DMs, or other unmonitored channels to talk to a minor.Overstepping/blurring boundaries. Inappropriate compliments, jokes about relationships, or sharing personal details not appropriate for a mentor-mentee dynamic.Isolation. The adult discourages the teen from talking to others about their relationship or makes the teen feel responsible for their secrecy.Gaslighting or guilt. The adult blames the teen for misunderstandings, manipulates their emotions, or makes them feel they'll “ruin someone's life” if they speak out.Physical contact. Touch that's unnecessary, prolonged, or makes the teen uncomfortable -- even if it's framed as casual or accidental. You can learn more about The Good segment and even submit a story of your own by visiting The Good page on our website! Source materials for this episode cannot be listed here due to character limitations.

We continue our Advent theme of Insist on Hope, even in the midst of fear. This week the Gospel reading brings us once again to a story including John the Baptist. This time John is in prison and seems to be losing hope. Was it all worth it? Did anything I spent my life doing have meaning? Was it all for nothing? These are the questions John is asking as his life takes an unexpected turn. Most of us don't like unexpected turns. Especially when they make us call into question the big things like our life's purpose and what kind of legacy we will leave behind. Maybe there is something we can learn from John and Jesus this week as we return to the Gospel. Come along - online or in person - and let's see if we can tend to our fears (and our hopes!) together.Link to Livestream: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jQwZUNrRCYk⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Link to Start of Sermon: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jQwZUNrRCYk&t=1788sIf you are new to our faith community and are interested in learning more, please go to ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Welcome to First Congo Online - First Congregational Church of Western Springs

This powerful message centers on the transformative power of persistent, insistent faiththe kind that refuses to give up even when circumstances seem impossible. Drawing from Luke 18's parable of the persistent widow, we're challenged to move beyond casual, comfortable Christianity into a realm of breakthrough that belongs only to those who consistently knock on heaven's door. The widow's relentless pursuit of justice from an unjust judge becomes our model: if even an uncaring human eventually responds to persistence, how much more will our loving Father respond to our continual prayers? We're invited to examine whether we've stopped praying about things simply because we haven't seen immediate results, and to recognize that consistencyin prayer, in faith, in giving, in expectationis the key that unlocks miraculous provision. The message reminds us that insistent faith isn't begging God; it's reminding ourselves of His covenant promises and proving to ourselves that we truly want what we're asking for. When we show up week after week, when we give even in famine seasons like Isaac did, when we reach for our miracle like the woman with the issue of blood, we're not wearing God outwe're demonstrating the kind of shameless persistence that moves heaven on our behalf.

Things have been a bit – yeah, no – strained between Christian and me ever since he got back with his ex-wife, Lauren. I told him straight out that he was Hertz Car Rental even thinking about going there again. But he asked her to marry him irregordless and then, in the first flush of their rediscovered love, she asked him – “tell me honestly, I won't be angry” – what his friends thought of them getting hitched again and the dude snitched on me like a parrot with a megaphone.

We see the word "taste" in Hebrews 6 and 1 Peter 2. What does it mean to taste the gospel? Can we still reject it? What can I say to someone who doesn't believe in the resurrection? People online are interrupting my ministry to insist we're still under the Law. What should I do?

Seeing the better side of people sometimes requires a lot of faith. The large amount of negativity is built into the system for a reason. Teamwork is the physics of being human. We are designed like a relay. Now, it's our turn to carry the baton. No to noise, yes to duty. When your nervous system learns the altitude, things happen. Sitting in surplus can cause stress. Serving others is serving yourself. Insist on integrity always. The recurring loop of benefits from helping others. Milgram proved we look to others for change. Be your own architect. The factions were present at the Kirk memorial. Words and ideas should not be persecuted. The obvious and deliberate injustice of the Tina Peter's case. Precedents set can often be dangerous. We cannot survive a corrupt judiciary. Why has no one stated the obvious. The judge in the Peter's case was corrupt. Denial of appeal was because of Tina's speech. The judge admitted it. It goes so far beyond injustice. We need to talk more about elections soon. This stuff goes back to the 90's. Let's take it from the top, and see who controls the script. It's all part of the show.

Pennsylvania is in its third month without a state budget, pausing payments for schools, counties and various human services. Democrats and Republicans are insisting they’re close to an agreement. Partisan interests continue to shape this November's fight over whether to retain three Pennsylvania Supreme Court justices. Dozens of schools in Pennsylvania are planning to build solar panels on their roofs. And they’re hoping to use federal tax credits to cut their costs. These tax credits are ending early — but many schools seem to be sticking with their original plans. A new study shows schools in Dauphin and Cumberland Counties could save more than $26 million by going solar. The nonprofit PennEnvironment Research and Policy Center's study demonstrates how solar energy could reverse many school districts' energy-inefficient buildings. Dauphin County Commissioners defeated a resolution Wednesday that would have restricted the county's assistance with federal Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE). And a deeper dive: NPR’s Scott Detrow, host of All Things Considered, reflects on his time working for WITF and the importance of the NPR network and member station relationship especially after the rescission of federal funding. Did you know that if every sustaining circle member gives as little as $12 more a month, we'd close the gap caused by federal funding cuts?

When the state of Idaho bowed out of a grey wolf reintroduction program and even proposed a major reduction in wolf populations, the Nez Perce tribe stepped in to help the endangered animal's fate. With a deep spiritual and cultural connection to wolves, the tribe sought to improve wolf numbers over the objections of many decision makers and members of the public. Now the state is pushing a plan to cut wolf numbers by more than half. Tribes in Wisconsin are also weighing in on proposals to end certain protections for wolves in that state. In Idaho, the tribes say the animals have cultural significance. We'll hear about tribal efforts to help wolves, and get a picture of a film about the Cherokee connections to the red wolf. GUESTS Michael Waasegiizhig Price (Anishinaabe), traditional ecological knowledge specialist for the Great Lakes Indian Fish & Wildlife Commission Dr. Candessa Tehee (Cherokee), Cherokee Nation tribal councilor, artist and associate professor of Cherokee and Indigenous studies at Northeastern State University Marcie Carter (Nez Perce), previous wolf project biologist with the Nez Perce Tribe Allison Carl, wildlife biologist with the Great Lakes Indian Fish & Wildlife Commission
