Jamaica is preparing for Hurricane Melissa. The category 5 hurricane is the strongest storm on the planet this year — and it could become the strongest storm ever to hit Jamaica. The country has issued mandatory evacuation orders for people living in coastal areas, but there are concerns that not enough people have left their homes. We speak with two people who are getting ready for when the storm hits — and working on relief efforts for their communities, as officials are warning the storm will bring “catastrophic” damages to communities and infrastructure.

Happy Monday. It's time to get Mighty! Ryan is here to help review the 1993 classic, Rookie of the Year. ABOUT COOL RUNNINGS:When a Jamaican sprinter is disqualified from the Olympic Games, he enlists the help of a dishonored coach to start the first Jamaican Bobsled Team.AIR DATE & NETWORK FOR COOL RUNNINGS:October 1, 1993 | TheatersCAST & CREW OF COOL RUNNINGS:Leon as Derice BannockDoug E. Doug as Sanka CoffieRawle D. Lewis as Junior BevilMalik Yoba as Yul BrennerJohn Candy as Irving “Irv” BlitzerBRAN'S COOL RUNNINGS SYNOPSIS: We're in Jamaica, and it's not quite bobsled time. We meet Jamaican sprinter Derice running through town. It's November 1987, and Derice is preparing to qualify for the Olympics. He runs until he reaches the pushcart competition, where his best friend Sanka competes in the big pushcart race. Sanka crashes, but no problem—Derice keeps running.It's time for the qualifying race. Derice is the clear favorite. The top four finishers will represent Jamaica in the Olympics. Unfortunately, the runner next to him, Junior, stumbles and takes Derice down with him.Derice tries to convince the Olympic committee leader to rerun the race, but it's a no-go. On his way out, he notices a picture of his late father standing next to another man. He asks who it is, and learns that it's Irv Blitzer, a fellow gold medalist who once competed in bobsledding. Irv lives in Jamaica now, working as a bookie and living a miserable life.It takes a while, but Derice finally wears him down, and Blitzer agrees to give him a shot. They gather a group of people together, but Blitzer scares them off by showing a reel of bobsled crashes. By the time it ends, the room is empty—except for one of the other runners who fell with Junior, a grumpy guy named Yul. The problem is, there's no such thing as a three-man bobsled team. That's when Junior shows up. Yul tries to fight him when he walks in, but—like it or not—that's their squad.They get to work, and after a lot of crashing and falling, they finally manage to get into the bobsled in under six seconds.Now they need funding. After failing to land a sponsor, they try random fundraisers, but still fall short. Junior steps up and sells his fancy car to cover the rest of the costs.To Calgary they go. Blitzer registers the team and borrows a rundown bobsled from a former teammate. The Jamaicans struggle to adapt to, well, ice. Derice talks to an opponent who warns him that Blitzer is holding him back—that he hasn't been the same since he was caught cheating.Meanwhile, the other teammates get into a bar fight at a honky-tonk. Derice gives them a pep talk about locking in and focusing.It's time for qualifying, and Blitzer surprises them with their very own uniforms. They need to make it under 60 seconds—and THEY DO IT!They celebrate by painting their sled and naming it Cool Runnings. But soon after, they receive a letter: they've been disqualified. Blitzer storms into the rules committee meeting, insisting they not penalize the team for his past mistakes. After deliberation, the committee reinstates them.It's Olympic time. Back home, everyone watches as they march in the opening ceremonies. Junior's dad tries to pull him back home, but Junior stands up to him at last.The team's first run on the track is a disaster, and they finish dead last. Derice tries copying the Swiss team's methods, but Sanka pushes back—telling him they need to be themselves. On the second day, they race in their own style and finish eighth.During their final race, a loose screw causes one of the bobsled's blades to detach, sending the sled crashing and flipping over. Determined to finish, the team lifts the sled and carries it across the finish line. The crowd erupts in applause—including Junior's father.The epilogue explains that the team returned to Jamaica as heroes, and came back four years later to the Winter Olympics to compete as equals.

Women's History, Episode #4 of 4. Today we're exploring one of Texas's most enduring legends - the story of the "Yellow Rose of Texas" and her supposed role in the Battle of San Jacinto. We are going to unravel the myth of “The Yellow Rose of Texas.” We will explore the woman at the heart of the tale, Emily D. West, who was a free woman of color working in Texas, and untangle her real life from the Texan myth.

A small monthly pledge on Patron gets you that, and so much more, and is a way to show your support for what we do.On the Track todayThe fastest man and woman in the world were crowned on track in Tokyo today.

Jamaica Story is a documentary made to inspire Jamaicans worldwide to invest their time as well as their money to help create a brighter and stronger Jamaica! https://instagram.com/jamaicastory/ Director Statement I was born in NY to Jamaican parents, but spent a pivotal time in Little London, Westmoreland, Jamaica. This time created a love and affinity for Jamaica I barley understand sometimes. In 2018 I had the crazy idea to film a feature length documentary about Jamaica talking to any and everyone who said yes. I reached out to anyone I could through many mediums. I spent my own money going back and forth between Jamaica and the US. People told me I was crazy, but here I am today still following my dream of creating a documentary to help change a country and a people.

In this episode, we welcomed Temi (Gin & Gist) and Fizzy (director & producer) to the studio, and the vibes were flowing from early. From banter about Brent's “angelic” singing and live show petitions, to family stories and creative hustles, the energy was all the way up.We also tackled the topic of the day: identity and belonging - looking at Jamaicans of different backgrounds, “white Yardie,” and whether diasporans project their own struggles onto others. The conversation got deep about Britishness, Nigerian roots, and raising kids with culture.

Send us a textWhat happens when your language becomes a battleground for identity, education, and cultural sovereignty? When Oneil Madden, a Jamaican linguist who speaks five languages, joined me for this conversation, we uncovered the profound connections between language, heritage, and self-perception that shape the Caribbean experience both at home and abroad.Oneil shares his journey to becoming a lecturer at the University of Technology, where his passion for language education has fueled groundbreaking research. The revelation that really struck me was his experience of being told by a French supervisor that he was bilingual—something he hadn't fully internalized until his twenties despite growing up speaking both Jamaican Creole and English. This moment mirrors so many of our experiences as Caribbean people, where our native language is often dismissed as merely "bad English" rather than recognized as the sophisticated linguistic system it truly is.We dive deep into the challenges facing Jamaican Creole today—from standardization efforts by the Jamaican Language Unit to the fascinating paradox that while most Jamaicans speak Patois fluently, many struggle to read it in its codified form. The translation of the New Testament into Jamaican Creole serves as a powerful example of both the progress made and the distance still to travel. As artificial intelligence increasingly enters the language landscape, we confront complicated questions about who "owns" Jamaican Patois. Is it something to gatekeep, or should we celebrate its growing global influence? .Language shapes how we see ourselves and how the world sees us. If you've ever felt your accent was a weakness rather than a strength, or if you're curious about the future of Caribbean languages in a digital age, this conversation will resonate deeply. Resources Mentioned:Jamaican Language Unit at UWI MonaJamaican New Testament (via Bible app)UN Decade of Indigenous Languages (2022–2032)BBC article on Patois in Toronto Subscribe to the Newsletter Support How to Support Carry On Friends Donate: If you believe in our mission and want to help amplify Caribbean voices, consider making a donation.

In this episode Dale Travels to kansas City Missouri for a comedy show and then interview the great Julie Mango. This episode takes a twist from just two comedians being funny into something Julie mango in passionate about. She speaks about battling with depression, self confidence and mental health. Words were muted for sensitivity and prevent the video from being affected. This was indeed a great conversation between two Jamaicans and you can learn a lot from it.

What happens when 100 men try to take on a gorilla? Madness, laughter, and pure Jamaican commentary! In this hilarious episode, we dive into one of the internet's wildest hypothetical matchups—and you know Jamaicans always have something extra to say. Dale really believe this is possible and Crooks thinks this debate is ridiculous

In this powerful and necessary episode of Soulfood and Lemonade, we respond to ignorance with truth. When someone told a Jamaican to “go back to your country,” they likely didn't realize how deeply Jamaica has contributed to the very fabric of America. From military service and music to public service, healthcare, and civil rights, Jamaicans have earned their place—not as visitors, but as vital threads in the American story. This episode is both a reminder and a celebration: we belong here.

In this episode Dale and Crooks speak about he things they can't stand. Serious although playful there are somethings that just give us the ick but we know it means no harm and it just different from we would do personally. The thing is with Jamaicans, a lot of things we would consider a pet peeve is normal behaviour for the average person.

The rising house prices across has affected peoples abilities to purchase homes in 2025. The ultimate goal is to purchase property and gain financial freedom. A lot of Jamaicans like to purchase property back home and decide to retire in Jamaica. This is becoming increasingly more difficult in certain areas. Listen to Dale and Crooks explain why.

The Penn Relays have officially begun at the University of Pennsylvania—my alma mater—and once again, the historic Franklin Field is alive with the spirit of one of the oldest and most prestigious track and field events in the Americas. Hosted annually by Penn Athletics, the Relays are more than just a sporting event—they are a cultural moment, especially for the Caribbean diaspora.You simply cannot mention the Penn Relays without mentioning Jamaica in the same breath. Jamaicans have long been dominant and enthusiastic participants, from high school standouts to collegiate champions. The relays serve as a proving ground for emerging talent and a showcase of track royalty.I remember one year when I had the privilege to volunteer at the games. It was a moment I'll never forget—I met the likes of Bill Cosby, the Hon. Portia Simpson Miller (Jamaica's first woman Prime Minister), and track legends such as Asafa Powell, Usain Bolt, and Shelly-Ann Fraser-Pryce. The electric atmosphere, the sound of cheering crowds, and the buzz around potential stars from across the U.S. and Caribbean left an indelible mark on me.Yet, something feels different this year. While the 2025 Penn Relays have kicked off with their usual modest energy, there's a noticeable lack of media coverage and buzz. Surprisingly, many locals in Philadelphia I spoke to either weren't aware the Penn Relays were happening or didn't know what the event was at all. This is a stark contrast to years past, when the city would buzz with anticipation and pride.Still, the Caribbean diaspora and college track athletes from around the country are already making their way to the city, bringing with them a growing excitement that's starting to creep in. Although mainstream media has yet to fully engage, the passion of the people remains. A quick keyword search or hashtag scroll for “Penn Relays 2025” yields only a handful of results—disappointing for such a historic event.We remain hopeful that as the week unfolds, coverage will swell and the attention this event deserves will return. In these turbulent and uncertain times, we need events like the Penn Relays. They offer catharsis and community—a moment to celebrate excellence, heritage, and unity.Between the NBA playoffs and the Penn Relays, there's a lot to look forward to this week. Stay tuned—The Neoliberal Round and our YouTube channel may bring you interviews, event highlights, and the heartbeat of the city and its athletes as the games progress.Until then,Renaldo C.

In conservations around Jamaicans distrust in the island's political system, there is the recurring theme of political corruption. So to understand the root of political corruption on the island, it seems to fit to look at the historic court case involving J.Z. Malcolm, who in 1952 became the first politician in Jamaica to be found guilty on fraud charges.

This week on High Society Radio, Chris Faga, Chris Stanley, and special guest KP Burke dive into NYC parking nightmares, Stolen IP and the ultimate soundboard battle. Plus, they get into Navy prison stories, leaked group chats, and why Jamaicans are obsessed with procreation.Topics This Episode:

in this episode we speak about the things we still do although we are living abroad. Things such as cooking, cleaning and sayings. Certain rituals that only Jamaicans will understand. Be sure to like comment and subscribe.

In this video, Dale Elliott speaks about the different types of Jamaicans living abroad and how we identify each other. The Jamaican diaspora is vast, with Jamaicans found all over the world. In this episode, we put our Jamaican knowledge to the test!

There are more Jamaicans living abroad than on the Island itself, a fact not lost on Courtney Cephas. As director of the National Healthcare Enhancement Foundation (NHEF), the philanthropic arm of Jamaica's Ministry of Health and Wellness, he wants to tap into this large and charitable community — referred to as the diaspora — to improve health care in Jamaica. In this episode of 20 Minute Health Talk, Cephas joins host Sandra Lindsay, RN, herself a member of the diaspora eager to give back, to discuss the NHEF's work, including its focus on building sustainable partnerships with organizations like Northwell Health, to address critical needs. Cephas and Lindsay detail two recent trips by Northwell clinical teams to the island, where they provided free surgeries for women suffering from uterine fibroids — one of several surgeries that have been backlogged since Covid-19, leaving hundreds desperate for a solution. These trips represent a powerful example of the diaspora's impact, bringing relief to patients while also strengthening Jamaica's healthcare system for the future. Hear how this unique collaboration is transforming lives and learn about the NHEF's work to create a healthier future for Jamaica. Future episodes will feature the inspiring personal stories of the women whose pain, resilience, and renewed hope embody the spirit of this initiative.

n this episode we speak briefly about the different superstitions Jamaicans have about ghosts, witchcraft and many more myths. The different religious beliefs that lead Jamaicans to believe in Ghosts and evil spirits. Whether we believe in these myths or not. Dale also speaks about how much of a menace was when growing up as a child in Jamaica.

in this video Dale Elliott speaks about he different types of Jamaicans located abroad and how we identify each other. The Jamaican diaspora is very big across the world with Jamaicans being located almost everywhere. In this episode we test our Jamaican!

Jamaica's Farming Boom: Is It Here to Stay?In this video, we explore the surprising rise in farming across Jamaica, with over 220,000 new farmers registering during the pandemic. Discover how job losses led many Jamaicans to turn to agriculture for survival, and how key crops like pineapples have thrived during this period. We dive into the benefits of registering as a farmer, the role of technology in modern farming, and the challenges that farmers face with theft and environmental issues. Join us as we discuss whether Jamaica's pandemic farming boom is a short-term trend or a lasting shift in the country's agricultural landscape.Chapter Markers00:00 - Introduction: Jamaica's Farming Boom01:41 - Job Losses and Farming: A Pandemic Shift02:47 - Top Crops in Jamaica: Pineapple & Beyond03:23 - How Farmers Choose What to Grow04:51 - The Importance of Soil Testing for Crops05:30 - Benefits of Registering as a Jamaican Farmer07:01 - Challenges of Farm Theft and Law Enforcement07:53 - The Role of Technology in Jamaican Farming09:17 - Organic vs. Commercial Farming: What's Best?10:15 - Combatting Crop Diseases in Jamaica11:12 - Why You Shouldn't Sneak Seeds into Jamaica12:25 - The Age Gap in Jamaican Farmers: Where Are the Youth?13:04 - Government Support and Funding for Farmers14:32 - How Farmers Can Access Export Markets16:07 - Finding the Best Crops Based on Location17:08 - Overcoming Jamaica's Trade Deficit Through Farming19:03 - Government Initiatives for Supporting Farmers20:18 - Organic Farming Certification Challenges22:23 - Addressing Environmental Impact in Farming25:02 - Supplying Hotels Directly: Farmer Challenges26:29 - Repurposing Agricultural Land in Jamaica28:12 - Encouraging Youth in Farming Through TechnologyMy Contacthttps://thropmedia.com/throp-xFacebook: https://www.facebook.com/throplife

Should Jamaica sever ties with China? China is investing heavily in Jamaica. In fact, many Jamaicans say that Jamaica now belongs to the Chinese due to massive investments in the road networks particularly the Highways and even the harbour and ports; Jamaica has the 7th largest harbor in the western hemisphere. In this episode we discuss with some Jamaicans the problem this may pose as Trump has demanded China to leave Jamaica. This situation is almost akin to the Russian situation where Ukraine was caught in the middle of a world order or international framework. Today Ukraine is fighting a war due to a decision they made to lie in bed with Russia's enemies. Now Jamaica is in bed with a #usa enemy or rival, China. What does this mean for the small island?
