A shocking security breach at the White House Correspondents’ Dinner dominated national headlines after an armed suspect attempted to rush a checkpoint at the Washington Hilton, injuring a Secret Service agent and triggering major questions about event security and political violence. Investigators say the suspect, Cole Allen, left behind writings targeting Trump administration officials, sparking renewed debate about public safety, extremist rhetoric, and how high‑profile political events are protected going forward. Elsewhere on the show, Megan Thee Stallion confirmed she is officially single after ending her relationship with NBA star Klay Thompson, citing trust, fidelity, and respect as non‑negotiables, a breakup that played out publicly as she powered through an emotional Broadway performance in Moulin Rouge!.

Recorded April 5, 2026 (Programming note---episode was recorded before the game vs the NY Rangers) Happy Easter Caps fans! Ms. Jindependent comes back for another week to go over.....another 2-1 week for Our Caps.

Recorded March 29, 2026   Ms. Jindependent Jini Clausen joins us for another week to break down what, at times, was a wild Western trip for Our Caps. As you can imagine with so much to unpack the commentary runs a bit long, but if yoiu're vlowing off steam like we were then you will find it well worth the extra time.   As is her custom, Jini has come up with another key stat breakdown that is worth watching as the Caps finish their season.

What if the thing that scares you most is actually the doorway to your next chapter? And what if beginning again at 56 is exactly where your triathlon journey is meant to start?   In this episode, we meet Jini Thornton, a CPA, financial planner, and triathlon beginner who is redefining what it means to be an athlete in her 50s. As a founder who has helped over 500 women plan the transfer of more than $188 million in assets, she understands preparation and long-term thinking. But stepping into triathlon required something entirely different: courage, vulnerability, and a willingness to be new again.   Jini's journey began with community. Through Atlanta Tri Sisters, she found women in their 50s, 60s, and beyond who were thriving in endurance sports. With their support, she faced one of her biggest fears: open water swimming. She slowly rewrote the story she had been telling herself. From pool-based races to sprint triathlons and now setting her sights on an Ironman 70.3 relay, her path proves that growth doesn't come from comfort.   This conversation is about mindset, legacy, and starting before you feel ready. It's about claiming the word "athlete," embracing discomfort, and allowing community to carry you when doubt creeps in. For any triathlon beginner wondering if it's too late or too hard, this story offers a different truth: You don't have to have it all figured out to begin. You just have to take the first step.   Join the Tri Beginner's Luck Community: Enjoyed this episode? The best way to support the show is to leave a 5-star review on Apple Podcasts or Spotify!

No, we will not break down the actual game. Yes, we will tell you what we believe it means to us. The next segment is dedicated to the only game breakdown we do go through--agains the Carolina Hurricanes. And then comes the disaster that was the game against the CBJ. Again no breakdown here especially since no Caps scored, but a lot of discussion over what went wrong and why. And somewhere in the middle, something new we learn about Jini! Finally, we go over some long standing concerns that are still lingering with Our Caps. And there are quite a few of them. But the good news is that there are even more reasons to be optimistic.
