Mayor Mike Johnston signed an executive order last week that, among other things, bans immigration officials from any city property and requires Denver police to intervene if federal agents are compromising the safety of citizens. Westword editor Patty Calhoun joins host Bree Davies and producer Paul Karolyi to dig into how this order could play out. Then, a new report on the “structural contraction” of the restaurant industry is sparking a new round of debate about Denver's tipped minimum wage. Plus, listeners decry the mayor's use of “Trumpian” in our interview with Johnston last week.  What do you think about Denver possibly lowering the tipped minimum wage? We want to hear from you!

TSN Hockey Insiders Darren Dreger and Chris Johnston joined OverDrive to discuss the headlines approaching the NHL trade deadline, Bobby McMann's future with the Maple Leafs and his possible contract value, Keith Pelley's message to Toronto's season-ticket holders, Sergei Bobrovsky as a trade asset in Florida, Nazem Kadri wanting out of Calgary, Jordan Binnington in the trade buzz across the league and more.

This episode features a conversation between host Jerry Ratcliffe and Police Chief Rich Johnston of the Barrie Police Service in Canada. Chief Johnston, a proponent of evidence-based policing, discusses how this approach has influenced his career and the importance of future police chiefs adopting it. Johnston, who has been a police officer since 1997, has served in various roles within the Barrie Police Service and is recognized for his leadership and contributions to evidence-based policing. He holds a bachelor's degree in philosophy and two master's degrees, including one from the University of Cambridge. The conversation touches on the differences between Canadian and US policing, with Johnston noting that Canadian policing tends to have a broader public safety focus compared to the more law enforcement-centric approach in the US. Johnston also shares insights on the challenges and benefits of implementing evidence-based practices within his department, emphasizing the importance of curiosity and critical thinking in policing. The episode concludes with a discussion on the significance of visibility in policing and the impact of evidence-based strategies on community trust and safety.

Timor Leste became independent from Indonesia in 2002, after 24 painful years of Indonesian occupation built on centuries of Portuguese colonisation. Both regimes were deeply violent and extractive, and as my guest today argues, drew Timorese society into different forms of a valorised armed masculinity that would have repercussions well after Timor's independence. It's in this post-conflict context that Mel Johnston examines Timor's gender interventions. Gender mainstreaming is a global set of strategies, interventions and approaches that seek to address the inequality of being a women in policy-making. These set of principals have particular traction in the region. Gender mainstreaming has been mandatory in Indonesia since 2000. In Timor Leste, gender mainstreaming is so important its crystallised in the actual constitution. And yet, Mel went to East Timor to investigate women's lives after independence, she found deep tensions between the goal of peace on one hand and gender equality on the other. Why would this be so? Did Timor's independence transform the role of women in Timorese society? How did major gender reforms like microfinance and the law against domestic violence impact ordinary Timorese women? Today we will be talking about Mel Johnston's prize winning book, Building Peace, Rebuilding Patriarchy

A single comment from a curious child—“We only study white people”—sent Amber O'Neal Johnston on a mission to rebuild her family's learning around story, dignity, and depth. On this episode of The Brainy Moms Podcast, Dr. Amy and Sandy sit down with Amber to unpack how a balanced bookshelf can change the culture of a home and the character of a child. Using Dr. Rudine Sims Bishop's mirrors, windows, and sliding glass doors analogy, Amber shows how to choose books that reflect kids' lived experiences, open honest views into other worlds, and inspire real-life empathy that carries beyond the page.We talk about practical ways to curate without censoring. Amber's rule is brave conversation over banned books: preview when you can, invite your kids to bring you the sticky parts, and ask sharp questions about author intent, historical context, and your own family values. You'll hear how this approach trains discernment for the teen years, when kids meet complex ideas without you in the room. We also dig into why diverse stories matter for every family, especially in communities that still feel segregated. Familiarity breeds friendship, and literature can be the first friendly bridge.Then we pivot to pace. Amber guards margin so her kids can be bored, curious, and creative—because that's where the magic lives. She makes a compelling case for a slow childhood and wide learning: linger in topics, pair fiction with primary sources, visit local history, cook the food, and let questions lead. Instead of climbing faster, go broader and deeper, and watch confidence and empathy grow together. Her final nudge is freeing: you are the special sauce. Lead with what you love—tech, nature, handicrafts, or culture—and let that authentic passion shape your homeschool DNA.If you're ready to raise thoughtful, joyful readers and make your home a place of belonging, press play.

Early voting is almost over, and many of you may still be weighing your options. To help, we recorded a full Democratic candidate forum for North Carolina's U.S. House District 13 so you can cut through the noise, hear real answers, and decide with confidence. This famously gerrymandered district stretches from Caswell and Person to Johnston, Lee, and southeast Wake—we also explain how to confirm your district and find your sample ballot using the State Board of Elections voter search.Two candidates took the stage: Paul Barringer and Frank Pierce. Paul draws on decades in health law and public policy, arguing Congress must reclaim its Article I role, strengthen constituent services, and protect ACA subsidies while rolling back new Medicaid barriers. Frank argues off-year wins come from doors, data, and early engagement, pointing to turnout gains, year-round organizing, and coalition building across Black voters, HBCUs, and Democratic caucuses.You'll hear contrasts—and overlap—on abortion rights, rural health access, paying for care, Ukraine, Taiwan, NATO, tariffs, and redistricting strategy.If District 13 is on your ballot and you're a Democrat or unaffiliated voter, this forum delivers substance flyers can't.

In a world where luxury is often defined by excess, logos, and exclusivity, House of Tengri offers a radically different vision  one rooted in stewardship, humanity, and the quiet power of nature. In this episode, we explore the story behind the brand and its founder, Nancy Johnston, a  entrepreneur who set out to redefine what “true luxury” really means. After living among nomadic yak herding communities in Mongolia, Nancy witnessed first hand the fragile balance between land, livelihood, and global fashion demand. What she discovered was an overlooked fibre  rare, noble yak fibre and a powerful opportunity to create a luxury model that restores ecosystems, protects cultural heritage, and shares value with the communities at its source. Founded in 2014, House of Tengri connects remote herders to world class craftsmanship in London, producing timeless garments and interiors from traceable, regenerative fibres. But this is more than a fashion story  it's a blueprint for a new economic mindset. One where transparency replaces exploitation. Where patience replaces speed. And where luxury is measured not by price, but by purpose. Join us as we unpack how Nancy is challenging the industry's status quo and why the future of luxury may lie not in scarcity, but in responsibility. Because true luxury isn't about having more. It's about honoring where it comes from.

How do you know you're headed north if you don't know how to read the compass? The Bible is the living Word of God, given to His people to learn and grow from it. It can be easy to parachute into the Bible, read it without context, or even believe it's too hard to understand. The story of the Bible is this: There was a time when God created all things with good in mind. When we start looking for good without God, He makes a way for us to pursue a relationship with Him through Jesus. MESSAGE NOTES: https://www.bible.com/events/49565205RESOURCES: https://www.canyonridge.orgBLOG: https://canyonridge.org/blogs/

Jeb Johnston has been a celebrity hairdresser, a bartender, a musician, a personal trainer, and a nutrition coach — and somewhere in all of that, he went through multiple rehabs, jails, and a $150,000 treatment facility almost featured on NBC. What came out wasn't a neat story. It was something more useful: a coach who stopped needing to be right and built a model that finally made sense of all of it. In this episode we dive into:• Why the decisions we think we're making are rarely actually ours• The three-part framework that goes way beyond macros or mindset• Why your biggest weakness and your biggest strength are the same thing• The one differentiator that will separate thriving business owners from those who disappearWhen You Already Know the Answer But Can't Get There• You've read the books, hired the coaches, and still make the same choice at 9pm you swore off at 9am — not because you're weak, but because your nervous system beat your logic to the punch• We find options with logic, but decisions are always emotionally driven — until you understand that, no strategy sticks• Self-awareness without integration is its own trap — once you've seen the pattern, you can't unsee it, but you're still acting against it• The shift isn't more information. It's getting regulated enough to access the options you already haveThe Framework That Changes How You Coach (And How You Live)• Internal conflict, nervous system intelligence, strategic skills — Jeb's three-pronged approach doesn't start with strategy. It starts where the person actually is• The urge to fix is the resistance point most coaches hit. The post-it on Jeb's therapist's screen: "Wait, why am I talking?" Sitting in the question longer than feels comfortable is the skill• Before you can coach someone, you have to live inside their perspective — not assign your framework to it• The behaviors you most want to change exist because they're your biggest strengths in the wrong context. Stop going to war with yourself.What Gets Built When You Stop Starting Over• Jeb's clients don't leave with before-and-after photos. They leave saying their marriage got better, they're more present with their kids — and the weight loss followed quietly• Krysta shares how rewiring one belief — "putting myself first gets me everything I desire" — changed her calendar, her coaching, and her business. A canceled call now means a Pilates class, not two more pieces of content. The business didn't suffer. It grew.• Don't blow it up. Evolving doesn't require burning it down — the version of you that's outgrown your old model already has everything you need• In a world of funnels, automation, and AI, relationships are what will separate the people who thrive in the next five years from those who go awayWhether you're a coach hitting a ceiling, a business owner tired of tactics that don't feel like you, or someone circling the same health patterns no matter how much you know — this episode is the permission slip to stop outsmarting yourself.Follow Krysta:⁠@thekrystahuber⁠⁠@thefyx.officialpod⁠⁠@thefitnessfyx⁠@thespreadmktg Connect with Jeb:Instagram: @jebstuartjohnstonPodcast: Food on the Mind, Awaken Genius — foodonthemind.comEmail: jeb@foodonthemind.com — he means it when he says reach out

After snow and ice melted and power was restored to most of Nashville-Davidson County, Metro Council Members Emily Benedict (D–District 7) and Courtney Johnston (R–District 26) filed a resolution calling for the Electric Power Board of the Metropolitan Government of Nashville and Davidson County to terminate Nashville Electric Service (NES) CEO Teresa Broyles-Aplin. Both council members represent districts that endured multiple days without power. They say the city’s preparation for the winter storm, as well as the handling of restoration efforts, was poorly managed — and that NES leadership must be held accountable. Benedict pointed to reduced tree trimming earlier this year as one of several contributing factors. "It's a complete failure of leadership for some time from vegetation management. There's a lot of things in the resolution that speak to the problems that led to the problem that we have." Johnston echoed the call for change. "People were affected in a very serious way and people want to see that we are listening to them and they want action taken now. The trust in the person leading this organization that is supposed to be providing reliable power to them has eroded."

Interior designer and architect Benjamin Johnston brings a deeply human approach to creating refined, timeless spaces that defy categorization and trends. With formal training in architecture including a master's degree and experience working on mega-scale developments in Tokyo for Cesar Pelli, Benjamin made the deliberate choice to reverse scale and work at the intimate level of interiors. His path wasn't linear—he spent years taking on diverse projects from graphic design to furniture to small remodels, slowly building his craft and learning from each challenge. That foundation of hands-on problem-solving, combined with rigorous architectural training in critical thinking and design history, informs his work today leading a 23-person firm with projects spanning continents and cultures.Benjamin's design DNA is encapsulated in three words: classic, curated, and cool. Classic refers not just to aesthetic but to timeless principles of balance, symmetry (or deliberate asymmetry), and mixing time periods and cultures to defy trends. Curated means every piece is selected with intention and purpose, telling a specific story rather than just filling space. Cool comes from his clients—Benjamin sees his role as editor rather than author, pulling out their personalities, collections, and meaningful objects to create spaces that reflect their unique stories. He loves breaking rules, particularly around scale and proportion, such as installing oversized lighting fixtures that defy textbook formulas but create memorable, dramatic moments. His approach to theatricality in design—thinking about stars, supporting casts, and choruses within a room—stems from childhood experiences watching Houston Ballet productions and classic films.Recent years have brought new dimensions to Benjamin's practice: his debut book "Refined Interiors" with Rizzoli, product collaborations focused on customizable, American-made pieces that solve problems rather than replicate existing offerings, and upcoming lighting and tile collections. He's passionate about creating opportunities for his team of young designers to work on significant projects early in their careers, encouraging them to embrace failure as learning and think without fear. Benjamin's mission—create beauty, spread positivity, and enable others to do the same—extends from his client relationships to manufacturing partnerships supporting craftspeople in workrooms across the country. As he looks ahead, he remains excited by curve balls like a current boutique hotel project and committed to the belief that as long as we inhabit physical spaces, thoughtful, human-centered design will remain essential.

About a decade ago, Canadian musician Teagan Johnston was just getting her start in Toronto's music scene. As her career began to gain momentum and her circle of musician friends grew, she found herself wrestling with some unexpected emotions. She was thrilled to see her peers succeed, but she also started to wonder whether she truly belonged, and if it would ever be her turn. Those conflicting feelings became the inspiration for her latest single, Neon Schoolgirl. Teagan joins guest host Garvia Bailey in the Q studio to tell us how writing the song helped her confront and overcome her imposter syndrome.

Dr. Carol Johnston—Arizona State University nutrition professor and registered dietitian known online as “The Vinegar Lady”—joins Rob to break down what decades of research actually say about vinegar, blood glucose, and metabolic health. Johnston explains how her work began with an obscure 1988 rat study and led to a landmark 2004 Diabetes Care paper showing vinegar could blunt post-meal blood glucose spikes in people without diabetes, those with pre-diabetes, and those with type 2 diabetes. They dig into why vinegar still gets treated like “fringe” advice despite strong replication across countries—and why the mechanism overlaps with a major target of metformin. The conversation gets highly practical: why liquid vinegar matters (pills don't), how timing at the start of a meal changes outcomes, and the two core mechanisms—reduced starch digestion plus increased glucose uptake into muscle via GLUT4, similar to the effect of post-meal walking. Johnston also connects vinegar to the gut microbiome and acetate's growing role in brain and energy metabolism, sharing her own routine (on vegetables) and emerging findings on cognitive/depression measures supported by metabolomics. You'll also hear real-world implementations like homemade vinaigrettes (flip the ratio to 2:1 vinegar to oil), mustard as a stealth vinegar vehicle, and even “pickle sickles,” plus safety notes around dilution, enamel, and gastroparesis risk.

The road to Super Bowl LX ends in Santa Clara. In a matchup very few would have predicted at the beginning of the season, the New England Patriots and Seattle Seahawks are set for a championship rematch over a decade in the making. While the Patriots pulled off an amazing victory in Super Bowl XLIX, the Seahawks enter this Sunday as the favorites. Three-time Super Bowl champion and FOX Sports analyst Daryl “Moose” Johnston joined Chris Foster earlier this week to break down the X's and O's of the big game. Moose explains why he believes Seattle is the most complete team in the NFL and how Sam Darnold successfully "exercised his demons" against the blitz to reach this stage. Moose also discussed his own experience playing in the Super Bowl—sharing how he prepared for the big game and performed with the whole world watching. Additionally, he explains what players actually do during the halftime show and what it was like playing in the Super Bowl when Michael Jackson performed.   We often must cut our interviews short during the week, but we thought you might like to hear the full conversation.   Today on the FOX News Rundown Extra, we share our entire interview with Dallas Cowboys legend and FOX Sports Analyst Daryl “Moose” Johnston, providing deeper big-game analysis and a look at what it will be like for the players taking the field this Sunday.
