John Dolan joins the Mark Reardon Show to discuss the upcoming Guns & Hoses Soccer Cup benefiting BackStoppers. The family-friendly event takes place May 30 at Worldwide Technology Soccer Park and features a full-field soccer match between local law enforcement and firefighters/EMS personnel, along with helicopters, SWAT vehicles, fire trucks, autograph sessions with St. Louis Soccer Hall of Fame players, and a special-needs halftime soccer game.

The segment opens with the weekly Guns N Hoses Queen of Hearts drawing update, noting the jackpot climbing to $15,300 and a recent winner taking home $25 from a 10 of hearts draw. The focus then shifts to the upcoming Guns N Hoses Soccer Cup at Worldwide Technology Soccer Park on May 30, where organizers John Dolan and Shane Monnig detail the growing event now shifting outdoors and expanding to 11-v-11 full rosters with up to 40 players per side. The match pits police against fire and EMS in a competitive but charity-driven showdown benefiting Backstoppers, with organizers aiming to raise $100,000. Both guests emphasize strong turnout expectations, family-friendly pricing, and growing momentum similar to the original Guns N Hoses boxing event.

Hour 1 centers on fallout from U.S. strikes on Iranian targets, with Marc defending the military response and pushing back against critics like Tucker Carlson while tying the conflict into broader debates over American strength, isolationism, and media framing. The hour also dives into St. Louis crime and spending priorities, with sharp criticism of local leadership over repeat offenders, beautification projects, and North City redevelopment plans, before shifting into Kim on a Whim mocking media-driven hantavirus panic and renewed masking rhetoric. The hour closes with a heated capitalism-versus-socialism discussion sparked by Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez comments about billionaire wealth and success in America. Hour 2 continues coverage of Iran tensions and 2028 political speculation surrounding Kamala Harris while expanding into economic concerns including gas prices, inflation, mortgage pressure, labor strikes, and consumer costs. The show also highlights Riley Gaines' upcoming Missouri appearance tied to the Missouri Right to Life banquet and breaks down local debate over Mayor Cara Spencer's proposed RAM settlement spending priorities. Lighter cultural stories round out the hour, including AI-generated relationships, Gen Z lifestyle trends, restaurant promotion disasters, wildlife policy, and viral internet stories. Hour 3 focuses heavily on government transparency, immigration enforcement, and political authority during wartime. Congressman Bob Onder joins to discuss presidential war powers, Iran strategy, UFO disclosures, election integrity legislation, and small business tax policy, while Steven Camarota from the Center for Immigration Studies criticizes sanctuary jurisdictions for blocking ICE cooperation and releasing detainees flagged for immigration violations. The hour closes with continued skepticism over sensationalized hantavirus coverage and fears of another media-fueled public panic cycle. Hour 4 features Riley Gaines discussing motherhood, Amendment 3, women's sports, and the cultural fight over gender and family issues ahead of her Missouri Right to Life appearance. The show then pivots to community fundraising and first responder competition as Shane Monnig and John Dolan preview the expanded Guns N Hoses Soccer Cup benefiting Backstoppers. Missouri Treasurer Vivek Malek later joins the program to promote Missouri's unclaimed property program, explain billions in dormant funds still owed to citizens, and outline his push to modernize Missouri's outdated state investment rules. The show wraps with lighter commentary on fuel prices, Circle K gas lines, and California energy policies driving record gasoline costs.

In an industry often driven by trends, shot lists, and repeatable formulas, wedding photographer John Dolan has built a career by doing the opposite: showing up with an open mind, a few film cameras, and a deep respect for what actually unfolds on a wedding day. In this episode of The Nerdy Photographer Podcast, John and I dig into what it really means to be "true" to a couple's experience. Rather than manufacturing moments or chasing perfection, John approaches weddings as a blank slate, allowing the day to reveal itself organically. That philosophy carries through every aspect of his work, from how he interacts with couples to his continued commitment to shooting film in an overwhelmingly digital world. If you're a wedding photographer feeling burned out by formulas, overwhelmed by the pressure to perform for social media, or simply curious about a more honest, grounded approach to storytelling, this episode offers a refreshing reminder: you don't need to invent meaning - sometimes your job is just to notice it.

In this episode, we sit down with John Dolan, the legendary wedding photographer who has spent decades redefining what it means to capture life's most intimate moments. Known for his philosophy of “The Perfect Imperfect,” John shares how he approaches weddings with empathy, artistry, and a deep respect for authenticity. From his early days in the darkroom to photographing iconic events, including high-profile weddings at the White House, John reveals the mindset and method behind his minimalist goal of delivering just 15 exceptional images to each client. He dives into the emotional layers of weddings, his relationships with planners, and why he believes great photography should feel honest and timeless. Whether you're a wedding professional, photographer, or creative entrepreneur, John's unique perspective on storytelling and his philosophy of “less is more” will leave you inspired to find depth and meaning in your own work.

Today, I'm joined by documentary photographer John Angerson, described as one of Britain's most creative and versatile photographers, on a walk along an ancient wall in Silchester, England. This wall, part of a once-thriving Roman town, nearly led Silchester to become England's capital. We talk about his long-term project, Love Power Sacrifice, where for 20 years, John photographed a cult-like religious organisation called the Jesus Army. Also, how the most normal of scenes can be the site of the most extraordinary photo stories and how John gained the most incredible access to one of NASA's space shuttle flights. It being the first Friday in the month, former guest John Dolan will be setting a new one-word assignment for June and there is news about our Photowalk adventure to Delhi, the Taj Mahal and Jodhpur in 2025.

Welcome to a photography podcast where we walk together with a mailbag of stories and pictures. My guest today, John Dolan, understands and completely embraces the importance of the photographic moment over photographic perfection. The second edition of his best-selling monograph, The Perfect Imperfect, is about to be released, and in it, he invites photographers to look beyond the shot list and find beauty and truth in imperfect moments. He has photographed the most recent Whitehouse Wedding; he is Seinfeld's family documentarian, and he is trusted to record the most intimate and often vulnerable moments for clients including Will Smith and Gwyneth Paltrow. Also from the mailbag as we walk, making pictures of the beautifully inanimate, the things that we pass by every day and never give a second thought to, a case of mistaken Googling when typing in the letters M A L and I, a letter on dragging yourself out of bed at sunrise, solar eclipses, the winner of last month's assignment, plus it being the second Friday of the month, street photographer and photography mentor Valerie Jardin joins me for Visual Stories, this month talking about timeless pictures in Paris.

On this edition of Parallax Views, Mark Ames, journalist and co-host of the popular podcast Radio War Nerd w/ John Dolan (aka Gary Brecher), joins the show to discuss his 2014 NFSFWCORP piece "The Kings of Garbage, or, The ADL Spied on Me and All I Got Was This Lousy Index Card". Due to his anti-apartheid activism at Berkeley, Mark Ames found out in the 90s that he'd been spied upon by the ADL. His file listed him marked him as a "Pinko". This leads us into the story of Roy Bullock, an investigator who spied on anti-Apartheid activists for the Anti-Defamation League and the South African apartheid regime. Working with SFPD intelligence officer Tom Gerard (who also had a spooky background involving CIA dirty wars in Latin America), Bullock was involved in all kinds of skullduggery, including a case that almost led to the murder of a Simon Wiesenthal Center researcher so that an ADL researcher could take his job and make some extra cash. It's a wild story that involves a spy ring within the ADL spying on American anti-apartheid activists. This also takes us into a discussion of how the Irwin Sewell and the ADL had dossiers on antifascist researchers like Chip Berlet of Political Research Associates, the relationship between Israel and South African apartheid, the ADL's shift from focusing on far-right movement like the John Birchers to left wing activists in Berkeley and Arab Americans, the Arab American Anti-Discrimination Committee and the car bombing assassination of Palestinian activist Alex Odeh, Abe Foxman (national director of the Anti-Defamation League from 1987 to 2015), the FBI (and LA Times?) vs. the ADL, ADL CEO Jonathan Greenblatt's embrace of Elon Musk (and curious comments comparing him favorably to noted antisemite Henry Ford), ADL spying on black Americans like former Congressman Ron Dellums, the ADL as part of the National Security State, philosemitic antisemitism, Israel as being its own worst enemy, the canceling of author and journalist Vincent Bevins in Germany, and more.

Andy is so happy to welcome a first-time guest to the show - John Dolan! John is a professional wedding photographer, and as someone who developed an interest in photography at a very young age, this interview is especially exciting for Andy. John truly stands out as a pioneer in contemporary wedding photography, having woven a career out of advertising, editorial, and fine art photography. For over three decades, he has redefined the genre by blending the honesty of documentaries and the grace and beauty of fashion photography. John's clients include magazine art directors and editors as well as celebrities such as Jerry Seinfeld, Ben Stiller, Kate Bosworth, Bridget Moynahan, Will Smith, Rosanne Cash, and Gwyneth Paltrow, so he has quite the reputation behind his name!

He also weighs in on the film vs. digital debate, explaining that he brings lots of cameras to a wedding and intuitively uses a hybrid of both film and digital based on the lighting situation. With John also being the author of the book The Perfect Imperfect: The Wedding Photographs, we also learn about what inspired him to write the book and what went into publishing it, and he closes up by offering some incredibly insightful tips and advice, including his belief that the most important person for a wedding photographer to please at a wedding is yourself.

This podcast is about big ideas on how technology is making life better for people with vision loss. Navigating the world can be difficult for anyone, whether or not they have vision loss. Tasks like driving safely through a city, navigating a busy airport, or finding the right bus stop all provide unique challenges. Thankfully, advances in technology are giving people more freedom of movement than ever before, allowing them to get where they want, when they want, safely. Smart Cities are putting data collection to work in a healthy way by providing information to make busy intersections more secure, sidewalks more accessible, and navigation more accurate. They're providing assistance for all aspects of travel, from the front door to the so-called “last hundred feet,” while using automated technology to make life easier every step of the way.  And although fully autonomous vehicles are still on the horizon, the technology being used to develop them is being applied to improve other aspects of life in incredible ways. These applications are making the world more accessible, safer, and better for everyone, including people who are blind or visually impaired. One example of this is Dan Parker, the “World's Fastest Blind Man,” who has developed sophisticated guidance systems for his racing vehicles, as well as a semi-autonomous bicycle that could give people with vision loss a new way to navigate the world safely and independently.   The Big Takeaways: Smart Cities. Greg McGuire and his team at MCity in Ann Arbor, Michigan are working on the concept of Smart Cities, which focus on using data to improve the everyday lives of their citizens. That means improving traffic intersection safety, greater accessibility options, providing detailed “last hundred feet” guidance, and much more. Autonomous Driving. In a perfect world, self-driving cars will provide ease of transportation for everyone, and create safer, less congested roads. That technology isn't there yet – but it's being worked on by talented researchers like John Dolan, the Principal Systems Scientist at Carnegie Mellon's Autonomous Driving Vehicle Research Center. Sophisticated sensors and advanced robot-human interfaces are being developed to make self-driving cars possible. Application of Technology. Even though the technologies behind Smart Cities and autonomous vehicles are still being developed, they can still be applied to everyday life in exciting ways. Things like miniature delivery robots that can deliver goods, AI-powered suitcases that can help you navigate busy airports, or semi-autonomous bicycles are already here – and there's more on the way. The World's Fastest Blind Man. When professional race car driver Dan Parker lost his vision in an accident, he felt lost. But a moment of inspiration led him and his business partner Patrick Johnson to develop a sophisticated guidance system that let him continue racing without human assistance. Thanks to this revolutionary technology, Dan became the “World's Fastest Blind Man” when he set a land-speed record of 211.043 miles an hour in his customized Corvette.   Tweetables: “One of the key pillars of MCity is accessibility. The four areas we think about are safety, efficiency, equity, and accessibility. … Accessibility is that we can make transportation systems available to as many of us as possible.” – Greg McGuire, Managing Director of MCity “I became the first blind man to race Bonneville, with an average speed of 55.331 mph. And I returned in 2014 and set my official FIM class record … at 62.05 mph. … I'm the only blind land speed racer … with no human assistance.”– Dan Parker, the “World's Fastest Blind Man” “There are chairs, there are tables. ... We know we don't want to run into them, but we do want to walk in the walkable space. … A car wants to drive in the drivable space.” – John Dolan, Principal Systems Scientist at Carnegie Mellon's Autonomous Driving Vehicle Research Center “Because we know autonomous technology is increasing every day and it's coming, you know, a hundred percent it's coming. You know, transportation is freedom and that's exactly what that would bring us. Freedom.” – Dan Parker   Contact Us: Contact us at podcasts@lighthouseguild.org with your innovative new technology ideas for people with vision loss.   Pertinent Links: Lighthouse Guild MCity Carnegie Mellon Autonomous Driving Vehicle Research Center Dan Parker

In this podcast, I talk to John Dolan, Strategic Advisor and Board Member at Ascend Cloud Solutions, about his career path. Prior to taking on this position, John was Global Vice President for Software-Defined Data Center Support at VMware. John spent more than 14 years at VMware in the Technical Support organization, where he led global organizations across EMEA and APJ. He did this from Cork, Ireland where he also held the role of Campus Site Lead. Prior to VMware, John spent a number of years working for EMC in Technical Support, helping them to build a support team in Ireland. I got to know John while at VMware when I was in engineering within the Integrated Systems Business Unit. I was working on designs for VMware customer deployments and John was providing support for these same customers. I then had a chance to spend a lot of time with John and his team when I joined the leadership team in Global Services. I really enjoyed working with John. He was incredibly focused on helping customers to be successful. I was helping redefine how we supported customers by moving us to a proactive model, delivering new capabilities such as chat, and delivering in product support. To do this, John and I had to work through the many challenges in scaling this to the huge number of customers that VMware has. I am super excited that John has taken on a new role with Ascend Cloud Solutions. His experience, expertise, and work ethic will help Ascend to be successful. I hope you enjoy my interviews with John!

Neale is getting dewy eyed over Chris Killip's nostalgic photography, meanwhile Kev is sidetracked by his black belt grading and banned rugby anthems! By the way, if you're a rugby fan as our Kev is, steady and ready yourself for some hopeless score predictions! Meanwhile in photography world, transitioning from portraits, finding street photography, editing larger raw files, smaller lens sizes and can we have a percentage symbol for battery strength instead of bars? Also, giving feedback to Fujifilm, bring back your mojo, X-E2 focus features and Lightroom sharing. John Dolan is our special guest returning for part two of his chat with Kev, and the boys are looking for more show questions; tech, creative and anything in-between, so email our website or Facebook group.

'Black belt in waiting Kev' ponders fight club in East London and Neale is wrestling too, but with a loan camera of a flavour he's never tried before. We celebrate a special birthday for a much loved Fujifilm camera, talk about all-weather shooting, white balance 101, Torsten's X-Pro3 has returned home, questions of sharpness in the Fujifilm range, print options for our hero sponsor pic-time, the best FF camera for vlogging with a FujiGimbal and auto ISO issues. Also, an appreciation for darts, though it's not a sport! Our guest is John Dolan, documentary and celebrated wedding photographer.

Kev moves into plumbing services it seems and Neale's left wondering where the years seem be disappearing to. Meanwhile is it time to drop DSLR from our language, is the X-Pro 3 the last of the lineage, if the brand was Fuji-Mullins - what would the next camera release be? Also today, strong post wedding sales, we talk 'shooting square', try to figure how some photographers find an ‘X factor,' understand why the X100 range has a small form factor, and accurate colour from your monitor. Book of the Show is The Perfect Imperfect by John Dolan and after the show on the Patreon channel the pop up show features our first member's picture critique, street pictures from Wade Brown in Australia.
