Grammy-nominated artist and producer Lemoyne Alexander has long been a force in the music world—earning accolades and platinum plaques for his work with hip hop legends like Aaliyah, DMX, Twista, Scarface, and R. Kelly. But today, Lemoyne is writing a bold new chapter in his musical journey—one that plants him firmly in the world of alternative rock.After decades of shaping the sound of Chicago's hip hop scene and building a resume that includes film and TV credits (Oprah, Jenny Jones, The Doctors), Lemoyne found himself searching for something more. The result is a powerful transition into alternative rock—an unexpected turn that feels like a homecoming.His new album, Alone, draws heavily from '70s and '80s rock influences, blending nostalgic melodies with raw emotion and authenticity. It's a deeply personal project—crafted during a period of reflection following his divorce—and signals a creative rebirth for an artist who has never been afraid to evolve.The lead single, “Insecurity,” (Spotify, YouTube) is already making waves. With over 110k Spotify streams, 97k YouTube plays, and sitting at #1 on the internet radio charts, it's a song that resonates deeply with listeners facing self-doubt and emotional vulnerability. Written from a place of honesty and experience, “Insecurity” is a powerful opener that sets the tone for the rest of the album.While his past work in hip hop cemented his place in music history, Lemoyne's venture into alternative rock is proving he's not done making history yet.Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/arroe-collins-like-it-s-live--4113802/support.

We're thrilled to welcome the one and only Randy Buchler of Shady Grove Farm to State of Water. Randy shares about the journey and foundational principles behind his and his wife Libby's work as they embrace permaculture and organic practices to treat the land and water in a healthy, regenerative way while providing nutrient dense, healthy food for themselves and their community. We hear about Randy's efforts with the Michigan Small Farm Council and behind the scenes stories about Randy's successful right to farm case which generated international interest and has had state wide ramifications allowing people to produce and procure the foods of their choosing within reason and give small farms a chance to exist in a policy landscape that favors large, commercial industrial agriculture. Randy reflects on his own personal connection with the water and how that guides his farming practices as well as his day to day experience enjoying the water as a source of healing, play, relaxation, and connection. Finally, we hear some powerful reflections on community and Randy's deep belief in paying it forward, as an educator and advocate, sharing his skills and knowledge while empowering others to discover their passion for producing their own food in a healthy, sustainable way.

Transportation is still the highest source of greenhouse gas emissions in the U.S. and one of the greatest carbon contributors globally.Governments and local authorities are continually researching ways to drive positive change through legislation and policy, and a large part of this will come down to urban mobility and transportation planning. To make the right decisions in these fields, we need the right data and measurement tools. Case in point: the Transportation Climate Impact Index by StreetLight Data. Their report uncovers how metros in the U.S. rank across eight key factors and reveals the major mobility trends impacting climate.In this episode, we discuss urban mobility and its role in climate change. We explore how to build a climate-resilient transportation system — one that offers social, environmental and commercial value. Our celebrated guests explain why urban mobility is one of the most critical areas of climate response, and more importantly, how we can better design our cities for greener futures with cleaner air and less traffic. Today, we're speaking to Dr. Laura Schewel, CEO of StreetLight Data and VP of Transportation Software at Jacobs and Jenny Jones, Head of Transport Planning for Europe at Jacobs.

In this episode, we explore the chilling story of the Jenny Jones murder case, one of the most infamous and controversial incidents linked to the talk show world. Jenny Jones, a popular daytime talk show host, was known for her candid discussions and often sensational topics. But in 1995, the show took a dark turn when a guest named Scott Amedure appeared on her program to discuss his secret crush on his friend, Jonathan Schmitz. The episode was supposed to be lighthearted, but it ended in tragedy when, just days later, Schmitz murdered Amedure. What followed was a media frenzy, a highly publicized trial, and a nationwide debate on the responsibility of talk shows and television producers in shaping the actions of their guests. The murder raised difficult questions about the ethics of television programming. Amedure, who was openly gay, had confessed his feelings for Schmitz during the taping, unaware of Schmitz's discomfort. The show, which was meant to be playful, ultimately highlighted the damaging effects of exploiting sensitive topics for entertainment purposes. Jenny Jones herself became embroiled in a legal battle, with some holding her and the producers accountable for creating a toxic environment that led to Amedure's death. In this episode, we'll break down the events leading up to the murder and examine the role of talk shows in perpetuating harmful stereotypes. We'll also dive into the courtroom drama that followed the murder. The case became one of the first to challenge the legal implications of TV shows manipulating vulnerable individuals for the sake of ratings. Schmitz was initially convicted of second-degree murder, but his defense argued that he was so emotionally distraught from the television appearance that he had temporarily lost control. The case sparked debates about the responsibility of the media and whether they were responsible for creating an environment that encouraged such extreme actions. Join us as we dissect the trial and the aftermath that impacted both the victims' families and the television industry as a whole. This episode also touches on the broader cultural context of the 1990s talk show era, a time when sensationalism dominated the airwaves. Programs like Jerry Springer and Maury Povich were known for their shocking and sometimes exploitative content, pushing boundaries and feeding into the public's voyeuristic appetite for conflict. The Jenny Jones case stands out as a turning point in how these types of shows were perceived, especially as concerns over privacy, consent, and exploitation began to rise. Finally, we'll reflect on how the Jenny Jones murder case continues to serve as a cautionary tale about the dangers of reality television and sensationalism. While many talk shows have shifted their format or faced criticism in the years since, the legacy of the Amedure murder reminds us that the quest for ratings should never come at the cost of people's lives. Tune in for a deep dive into one of the darkest chapters in the history of daytime TV. Talk2TheHand is an independent throwback podcast run by husband and wife, Jimmy and Beth.

We are thrilled to welcome Chris Treter, owner and co-founder of Higher Grounds Trading Company to State of Water. State of Water host Seth Bernard invites Chris to go on a journey through time, (4:40) back to the 1990s and the formative events of the Zapatista uprising in Chiapas, Mexico and the WTO protests in Seattle - both moments of people standing courageously against neoliberal economic policies. (11:58) In 2002 Higher Grounds was born in Chiapas as Chris lived and worked with coffee farmers, rooted in a model of solidarity economics not only about trade but taking into account the well-being of all trading partners. (14:30) From there, the conversation travels back to Michigan as Chris and Higher Grounds find deep community in Traverse City and then back again to (19:55) Chiapas with the launch of the Chiapas Water Project which provided important access to clean water for farmers and communities. (26:10) As Higher Grounds started building relationships with coffee farmers in other regions of the world, they carried the same ethics and values - to be in solidarity and collaboration with their growers and communities. (28:20) Seth and Chris share memories of their Run Across Ethiopia - where runners ran 10 marathons in 10 days and raised over 1/2 million dollars to invest in local communities. Through storytelling, athletics, activism, and the arts, Chris and Higher Grounds have continued to be a force for creating change and building meaningful relationships in the communities that they were sourcing their coffee. (36:45) We travel back to Michigan and hear about the new Common Grounds Cooperative in Traverse City - a real estate development cooperative that has quickly become a hub of arts, culture, and collaboration - a vision of community by the community. (46:15) Finally, Chris shares some powerful thoughts on clean water and peace making and how we in Michigan hold a unique opportunity to be protectors of a future peace that cares for water in a fair, equitable, and peaceful way.

While acknowledging and honoring that heaviness - we hope you find this to be an uplifting & empowering conversation as Maryann and Seth speak to the transformative power of creativity, the importance of nurturing intergenerational community, and how meaningful it is for each of us to find our unique voice and do our part for the sake of the common good.

This proposed metallic sulfide mine would be the closest to Lake Superior in history as well as bordering the North Country Trail and Porcupine Mountain State Park - which is not only the largest State Park in Michigan, it is the largest designated Wilderness Area in mainland Michigan with 40,000+ acres of designated Wilderness including 35,000 acres of old growth forest which is the largest tract of mixed coniferous-deciduous old growth remaining in the Midwest. It was recently ranked as "most beautiful State Park in the country." The Michigan Strategic Fund is currently considering a $50M grant to the proposed Copperwood metallic sulfide mine - this move would be an incredibly irresponsible use of taxdoller money and most likely open the door to additional investment and funding that would help the foreign energy company get the necessary resources to start development. Tom goes in-depth in the episode to how we got here, what's at stake and all of the current calls to action that we're encouraging folks to take.

When Kim Witczak lost her husband Woody to suicide, something didn't add up. Woody wasn't a troubled soul and he'd had no history with mental illness or self harm. But what he did have was a recent prescription to antidepressants and some very troubling side effects. Lisa became an accidental advocate for the dangers of off label prescription use and better labeling of those potential dangers. Now that's the first half- a little heavy but very interesting and informative. The second half is Jenny Jones, John Wayne Bobbit and Joey Buttafucco, all wrapped up into one very funny show.
