This week, perhaps the state's most powerful politician, Senator Phil Berger joins Tim to talk about the 2023 legislative session that kicks off in full this week. Sen. Berger dishes on Medicaid expansion, abortion, tax cuts, voter ID, medical marijuana, sports betting, whether North Carolina is truly a “purple” state, and so much more! This is a must listen to get a good sense of where Republicans plan to go this year as they are near a supermajority on Jones Street.
State Senators were busy in recent days as they approved several high-profile pieces of legislation. Meanwhile an environmental proposal filed in the House would punish corporations for dumping forever chemicals into watersheds. Yet it's unclear if any of these bills will soon become law. Mitch Kokai from the John Locke Foundation and Rob Schofield with NC Policy Watch help review the week in state politics.
Sen. Warren Daniel was one of the young guns in the General Assembly in 2011. His freshman class of Republicans had just ushered in GOP control of the Senate, a chamber controlled by Democrats for over a century. The Burke County Republican talks about his legislative work over the last decade as well as his childhood in western North Carolina, his decision to attend the prestigious U.S. Military Academy at West Point, and even talks about what his political future may, or may not, hold. Skye and Brian also talk about two hemp bills moving in the General Assembly, an expansive Medicaid expansion bill, a controversial Parents Bill of Rights bill on the move, a House resignation, and more. The Do Politics Better podcast is sponsored by New Frame, the NC Travel Industry Association, and the NC Beer & Wine Wholesalers Association.

Dana Swope is one of many residents forced to leave an apartment complex in midtown deemed unlivable by the City of Omaha in late January 2022. Chris Bowling sat down with her in her former home on the third floor of the Flora apartments at 2557 Jones Street on January 25 to learn about how she ended up paying $700 a month in a cramped studio apartment with mold, no heat and mice. Unfortunately her story may not be that uncommon as many in Omaha pay too much for poor, substandard living arrangements as the city is short 80,000 affordable housing units. See pictures of Dana and her apartment.

We are back this week with a Members only Episode to cap off our 2 part series comparing resident driven policy issues and how they were handled by City Council's of Tybee Island and Savannah. We start with the debate over a Special Use permit in the Design District at Whitaker and Jones Street. Major resident opposition was presented but resulted in massive confusion on the part of Aldermen Detric Leggett (District 2). The debate is whether or not to override the MPC recommendation for a restaurant zoning designation 1 block away from Mrs. Wilkes, one of the largest attractions in downtown Savannah.John starts on the fence and comes over the the side of residents. The issue has been tabled twice since this meeting. If well off downtown residents can't get City Council to hold the line on development, how will your neighborhood ever stand a chance?Source Video of Meeting: https://www.facebook.com/cityofsavannah/videos/562060125231735Chuck reiterates that the lowest paid city workers raises are being used to pay higher rents coming for Non Stevens Day property that will go up in rent for workers (like City workers). It's a tax increase you won't feel right away!In the members only section we discuss the zoning hearing for property on the edge of town that is being asked to be rezoned for 1000 Single Family Homes. Residents from the unincorporated came to beg council to hold off on approving any zoning change. We review the Petitioner comments and the messy debate that ensued on council. The results was a series of votes that revealed a lot about where council is at on the issue. Finally we preview the upcoming House District 165 Special Election in November. It looks like at least 4 candidates will run. We'll do a public free episode previewing this show over the weekend (hopefully) Subscribe at www.patreon.com/bettersavannah to instantly unlock the full episode.
In this episode, Midgett picks up where she left off in Part 1. She had just escaped an abusive relationship out east and decided to make her way to San Francisco. One of her brothers was in the Navy and already in the Bay Area. Another had just moved out here, and so Midgett had people already in place. Her mom had left an apartment on Jones Street in The City that she was able to move into with her two kids. It was 1974 and the women's movement was well under way. She met Roma Guy and got involved with opening the Women's Building, among other things LGBTQ and women's rights activists were engaged in at the time. It was there that Midgett started doing her workshops. We rewind a little to discuss how Midgett got started teaching. It began with her agreeing to serve on a school board, then she got her daughter into that school, and others recognized how good she was with kids and suggested she teach. Her first job in San Francisco was at the Booker T. Washington Community Service Center. She also taught fifth graders in after-school programs. She retired at 70 in the face of petitions that she stay on. She went back as a substitute regardless. She's currently working with the Kai Ming Head Start program. These days, Midgett is launching a subscription service to publish writings based on the workshops she did at the Women's Building for years. The topics include: parenting, friendships, relationships, sensuality, sexuality, and aging. Please go to her site, Midgett's Reading Room, and consider subscribing. We end the episode with Midgett talking about what it means for an 85-year-old to still be here. We recorded this podcast at Midgett's home in Bernal Heights in August 2021.

Musiche di Syon (Thomas Nicosia) Prelude in EmNel gennaio 1909 furono procurati i supporti per effettuare la stampa dei dollari falsi. Pertanto Comito assieme agli uomini presenti dentro la fattoria, iniziarono a stampare le banconote prova da $ 5 canadesi. La contraffazione delle banconote canadesi era molto complessa e faticosa. Ad ogni modo furono stampate banconote per un ammontare di 17.545 dollari canadesi. Il lavoro fu ultimato a fine gennaio e le banconote contraffatte furono inserite in scatole vuote di maccheroni. Di ritirare le banconote si occupò Cicale. Era chiaro che sarebbero state smistate in tutti gli Stati Uniti tramite una rete di spacciatori. Conclusa la produzione delle banconote canadesi, i falsari si dedicarono a quella delle banconote di taglio da due dollari americani. Nonostante gli estenuanti tentativi, e la miscelazione dei colori, la banda dei falsari non riuscì a raggiungere la giusta tonalità delle banconote da due dollari. Alla fine delle prove Cicala arrivò alla conclusione che occorreva incaricare uno specialista in inchiostri per ottenere l'effetto desiderato. La produzione di banconote falsificate nella fattoria di Highland riprese ai primi di febbraio. All'inizio di marzo, Comito si recò con Cicala a New York al numero 5 di Jones Street. Il viaggio fu finalizzato all'incontro con tale Giuseppe Calicchio. Nato in Campania nel 1858, Calicchio era arrivato a New York nel 1906. Calicchio accettò e si recò, assieme agli altri due, nelle Highland. Egli ritoccò e migliorò i clichè, che vennero montate sulla macchina da stampa, e iniziò a mescolare sapientemente gli inchiostri in modo da iniziare a stampare un nuovo lotto di banconote contraffatte da 2 dollari. Comito e Calicchio stamparono circa 32.000 nuove banconote da due dollari. Alla fine di maggio Cinà tornò alla fattoria. Lì informò i falsari che l'attività di contraffazione doveva terminare. Inoltre venne l'incarico di smantellare la tipografia poiché era preoccupato per la continua sorveglianza della polizia. Successivamente la banda di Morello ricevette molti ordini per la falsificazione delle banconote da $ 2. Infatti il procedimento della stampa, che era stato migliorato, fu considerato un successo. Una notte due sconosciuti arrivarono sino alla fattoria, e dopo aver bussato alla porta, chiesero di parlare con il proprietario. Vincent e Comito mentirono riferendo che erano solo degli operai della fattoria e che erano stati assunti per la raccolta delle ciliegie. I due sconosciuti a quel punto si allontanarono affermando che sarebbero ritornati. Comito, innervosito da quella visita inaspettata, fuggì a New York. La banda a quel punto si attivò per spacciare la grande quantità di banconote false che erano state stampate.Diventa un supporter di questo podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/storia-della-mafia-americana--4689841/support.

Tales of a Red Clay Rambler: A pottery and ceramic art podcast
Today on the Tales of a Red Clay Rambler Podcast I have an interview with potter and gallery owner Sandy Simon. She was a student of Warren MacKenzie’s at the University of Minnesota in the late 1960’s where she developed a studio practice of making utilitarian pots that continues to this day. In 1994 Sandy opened Trax Gallery in Berkeley, CA and has used the space to champion functional pottery. In our interview we talk about balancing form and decoration to create a unified pot, best practices for approaching galleries, and how the internet has changed the way pots are sold. For more information on Sandy visit www.traxgallery.com. Hey Red Clay Rambler fans, the most common feedback I get from you is that this podcast helps you feel connected to other artists. We live in a divided time and many of us are working by ourselves in solitary studios. The podcast combats that feeling of isolation by fostering a sense of community, while also providing an archive of our field. At this point our Patreon sustaining membership program and our sponsors contribute less than half of our monthly budget of $2000, which goes to promotion, production costs, and labor. My wife and I kick in the rest, which we do out of love for the project, but as you can imagine we could really use your help. The goal of our Fall Fund Drive is to raise $12,000 for the next year. I care deeply about this community, and I think art and making are vital to our world, now more than ever. I’m guessing you feel the same, so if you are able please donate to the show. Recurring donations are best because it allows us to create a stable budget, but one-time donations are also very helpful. You can find out more about these two options at www.talesofaredclayrambler.com/donate. Before I go, I want to ask one more favor. After you make your donation ask a friend to match your pledge with their own. Word of mouth is the best call to action, so I ask that you help me, by encouraging your friends and studio mates to support the show. With your help I can keep producing the interviews you have come to love. For today’s AMACO Community Corkboard we have Greenwich House Pottery’s annual Made In Clay holiday sale happening December 13th and 14th. The sale features work by over fifty participating artists and takes place at GHP’s historic brick walk-up at 16 Jones Street in the heart of New York City's Greenwich Village.
