One of Donald Trump's few critics within his party is the libertarian-leaning senator Rand Paul, from Kentucky. Paul was recently the sole Republican to vote in favor of restricting the President's power to make war in Iran. He also opposed Trump on tariff policy, and on his budget bill in 2025. “He loves voting ‘NO' on everything,” the President fumed. Paul ran for President in 2016, and is considering another run for the White House in 2028. He talks with David Remnick about how he would differentiate himself from J. D. Vance and Marco Rubio; about his opposition to the attack on Iran; and about Pete Hegseth invoking Christianity in the war. “People quoting the Old Testament about smiting the enemy” concerns Paul greatly: “If this becomes Christians versus Muslims, I don't see a quick end to a war.” Further reading:  “The End of Limits on a President's Wars,” by Ruth Marcus “Why Rand Paul Ran Aground,” by Kelefa Sanneh The Political Scene draws on the reporting and analysis found in The New Yorker for lively conversations about the big questions in American politics.

The overwhelming support from the Chasing Giants community has been incredible, and we ask that you continue to keep their family in your prayers.

https://media.blubrry.com/counterspin/content.blubrry.com/counterspin/CounterSpin260424.mp3 Right-click here to download this episode (“Save link as…”). NHLC (3/24/26) This week on CounterSpin: From the federal level on down, many laws and policies that claim to be about “ending homelessness” seem to be clearly more about hurting homeless people than changing their circumstance. Even if you, or anyone you know, has never been unhoused: How hard is it to understand the difference between charging poor people monetary fines they obviously can't pay, and then throwing them in jail when they don't—and addressing homelessness with, oh I don't know, housing? That would be a commonsense conversation, about what resources we have and how we deploy them; but instead we see power actors, with the support of the White House and the Supreme Court, telling us that “ending homelessness” means tearing up people's tents, throwing away their belongings; a new law in Kentucky says officials can use “stand your ground” laws to shoot homeless people that don't “cooperate” with their eviction from private or public land. So: Is this really about addressing homelessness? Because we know how to do that. And if it's not: What is it about? And can we have an honest conversation about that? Jesse Rabinowitz is the campaign and communications director at the National Homelessness Law Center. We hear from him this week. https://media.blubrry.com/counterspin/content.blubrry.com/counterspin/CounterSpin260424Rabinowitz.mp3 Marijuana Moment (12/18/25) Also on the show: You may think weed is “legal” because you see so many people smoking it on the street. Including your grandma and your next-door neighbor who just a few years back would've called the cops. But just as the criminalization of marijuana affected different communities very differently, the current supposed de-criminalization continues to comfort the comfortable and afflict the afflicted. Though that is not at all the understanding you would get from a casual view, or for that matter from media coverage that makes it seem like the debate over weed is all over, and now we're all just talking about which strain is the best. Maritza Perez Medina is director of federal affairs at the Drug Policy Alliance. She joins us to talk about what the “rescheduling” of marijuana does and doesn't do. https://media.blubrry.com/counterspin/content.blubrry.com/counterspin/CounterSpin260424Medina.mp3 With both homelessness and drug policy, it's useful to see how many current legislative measures, with a cultural backwind from corporate media, are fooling people that things have changed, while actually things are still harming the people who have always been harmed. So these moves are not something to “tweak”; we need conversation and action based on a different understanding of why things are as they are, and of how things can be.

Jim Shannon and Todd Ritter welcome Devin Puckett, Brand Representative for Old Glory Distilling Co. out of Clarksville, Tennessee, to the Bourbon Road. Devin shares the remarkable origin story of Old Glory — from founder Matt Cunningham's days as a firefighter devising a distillery plan in his mid-twenties, through the COVID pivot to hand sanitizer that ultimately funded a towering 24-foot Vendome copper column still, to the 8,650-barrel warehouse that stands today. Devin also reveals his own path into the industry: a Ball State grad from northern Indiana who married into the Cunningham family, sold RVs, and answered a text message that changed everything. **On the Tasting Mat:** - **Old Glory Tennessee Bourbon Small Batch (90 Proof):** A grain-to-glass Tennessee bourbon distilled on a Vendome copper column still from a mash bill of 73% corn, 19% rye, and 8% malted barley, aged approximately three and a half years in new char #4 Kelvin barrels. Bright and clean on the palate with a dry finish, green apple, caramel drizzle, and light citrus — an accessible everyday pour at an approachable price point. *(00:09:50)* - **Old Glory Tennessee Bourbon Bottled in Bond (100 Proof):** Drawn from 15–20 hand-selected pot still barrels and aged five years — an extra year beyond the minimum bonded requirement — this expression steps up the complexity considerably. The same 73/19/8 rye mash bill opens into darker fruit, rich brown sugar, cardamom, cinnamon, and a wave of baking spices, with a noticeably fuller, rounder texture. *(00:30:34)* - **Old Glory Tennessee Bourbon Single Barrel #271 (121.7 Proof / 5 Years 9 Months):** Selected by master blender Caleb Martin, this cask-strength pot still expression offers an entirely different dimension — a lush dessert character of blackberry cobbler, buttery dark fruit, and a lingering finish that keeps unfolding. One of the early pot still barrels that helped define Old Glory's identity before the column still era. *(00:44:10)* From a cornfield off I-24 to nearly 9,000 barrels of aging Tennessee whiskey, Old Glory is a distillery doing it the long way — grain to glass, family owned, community rooted. With a double oak release on the horizon, 100% rye and wheat casks quietly maturing in the warehouse, and a thriving on-site restaurant and event venue, there's plenty of road ahead for Clarksville's homegrown spirit. If you find yourself between Nashville and the Kentucky border, Old Glory Distilling Co. is more than worth the detour.

In December 2009, a Louisville hairdresser and beloved drag queen named Jamie Carroll walked into a Victorian mansion in Old Louisville — and never walked out. For seven months, he lay buried beneath the basement floor while the two men who killed him went on with their lives above his grave. Nobody reported him missing. Nobody came looking. Until a 911 call, a domestic dispute, and four words spoken in the back of a squad car changed everything. In Part 1 of Buried Beneath Fourth Street, Kris and Rob introduce you to Jamie Carroll — hairstylist by day, drag queen Ronica Reed by night — and to the two men at the center of one of Kentucky's most twisted true crime cases: Jeffrey "Jase" Mundt, the polished IT professional hiding a dangerous double life, and Joey Banis, the persistent felon fresh out of prison who was tangled up with Jamie long before he ever moved into that mansion on South 4th Street. We lay out the love triangle, the fatal December night, the horrifying cover-up, and the thread that finally unraveled everything — from a counterfeit $100 bill at a Chicago hotel to the words that sent detectives straight to that basement floor. In this episode: Who was Jamie Carroll? Hairstylist. Drag queen Ronica Reed. A man everyone loved. Who were Jeffrey Mundt and Joey Banis? Two very different men bound together by drugs and obsession. The love triangle that ignited a deadly night in December 2009 The cover-up inside the mansion at 1435 South 4th Street The Chicago counterfeiting arrest that started the unraveling The 911 call, the squad car, and the words that cracked the case wide open Part 2 drops next week.

This week, Jen Schwanke and I talk about the importance of proximity and presence in our work with schools. I hope the ideas remind you of the power of being connected and visible with those whom you serve, no matter, what role you play. You read more thoughts in the short post I wrote below. Or listen in for more conversation and takeaways! Staying Connected to the Work, Not Just the Ideas I've been reading a lot of Wendell Berry this year. A friend recommended him years ago, and I finally picked up his books after spending time in rural Kentucky visiting schools I serve there. Berry writes about a fictional farming community along the Kentucky River, spanning decades of change from the 1930s through the 1970s. He was not just an author and professor. He was also a farmer. Through his stories, he shows what happens when a way of life shifts under the pressure of growth, efficiency, and modernization. Yes, tractors, highways, and large-scale farming brought progress. But they also brought loss. Small farms disappeared. Communities dispersed. Relationships changed. In one scene, Andy Catlett, now an older man, attends a conference on agriculture. As he listens, he realizes something unsettling. The experts presenting no longer farm. They study it. They write about it. But they don't live it. And yet they are the ones telling farmers to “go big or get out.” That moment stuck with me. Because it raises a question for all of us in education. What happens when we get too far removed from the work we're trying to influence? A few weeks ago, I attended an evening event at a local school. The principal opened the doors to the community. Students in JROTC uniforms greeted guests. The band performed. Students led us to classrooms where they shared how they had grown through clubs, internships, athletics, and college partnerships. It was a powerful night. Walking those halls, talking with students and teachers, and being present in the life of the school reminded me of something simple: Doing the work is different from talking about the work. And I say that as someone who spends a lot of time talking about schools. So I'm reminding myself of two things. If I want to stay relevant in serving schools, I have to stay close to them. Not just through research or conversations, but through presence. And there is always a danger, even for people like me, of pushing ideas that sound good in theory but don't fit reality. The same “go big or get out” mindset can show up in education when we chase growth without purpose. Growth for the sake of growth is just action without purpose. I was reminded of that recently in a conversation with Dr. Fernando Branch (an upcoming guest on my podcast and principal of Robert F. Smith STEAM Academy in Denver). A few years ago, he made a decision to help students obtain passports because he believed exposure to the world could expand their thinking and opportunities. Since then, students have traveled to Costa Rica. This year, they're going to Italy. Families are getting passports too. Students are showing up differently because their view of what's possible has changed. That's not growth for growth's sake. That's purpose-driven leadership. It's also a reminder that what works in one school is not a prescription for another. Every community is different. Every school has its own story. But every student deserves a school that expands their opportunities. As I continue coaching, visiting schools, and having conversations with leaders, I'm reminded how easy it is to drift into becoming an “expert” who talks more than listens. We have to resist that. That's why I encourage principals to bring teachers and even students to conferences. The smartest person in the room is the room. We are better when we learn together, not in silos. Student-centered leadership looks like leaders regularly asking students what is working and what is not. It looks like inviting student voice into decisions that shape the school. It looks like prioritizing time for collaboration among teachers, leaders, and students. As I think about what works in schools, I want to stay grounded in the real work happening in classrooms and hallways, not just ideas about it. And I think that's why you're here too. Leaders who care about growth are always looking to learn. But the goal is not just to learn more. It is to stay connected to the people and the purpose behind the work. So as the year gets busy and your to-do list grows, don't lose sight of this. The relationships you build with students, teachers, and your community are where the real impact lives. Long after the meetings, the plans, and the initiatives are done, that's what will last. Now It's Your Turn How often do I intentionally seek input from students and teachers about what is working and what is not? Am I pursuing growth with clear purpose, or simply responding to pressure, trends, or expectations? What is one way I can increase authentic student voice in leadership decisions this month?

Kentucky Roll Call 04-20-26 by Big X Sports Radio 1450/96.1 WXVW

The Alabama Crimson Tide faces a high-stakes quarterback battle: can Keelan Russell outshine Austin Mack to become QB1 under Kalen DeBoer's new regime? With fresh faces, roster shake-ups, and standout spring performances, the pressure is on for Alabama to reclaim dominance in the SEC trenches while revamping its offensive identity. Brian Smith and Luke Robinson break down Russell's rise, Mack's potential, and key playmakers like Cedarian Morgan and Ryan Coleman-Williams, poised for breakthrough seasons. The conversation covers the impact of portal additions on the defensive line, heightened expectations for the run game, and shifts in overall roster depth after significant departures. Alabama's tough schedule—including a Game 2 battle at Kentucky, Florida State, Georgia, at LSU, and Auburn—raises the question: will fan expectations of another 10-win season and playoff run be met? Don't miss this candid, insider look at Alabama football's most pivotal offseason questions and the program's championship aspirations.

On this episode we're diving into the Russia-Ukraine conflict. Inevitably that conversation involves a little bit of drone technology talk, but we focus mostly on the human demands of this kind of warfare. When every single piece of equipment, food, etc. has to travel the last several miles on foot, what does that require of the individual soldier? When there is near constant visual and thermal surveillance, how do operations have to adapt? We break down all that and more, with some time saved at the end to talk about the ACFT implementation, since our guest played a key role in that as well. Major General Kline graduated from Shippensburg University, Pennsylvania in 1992 and was commissioned as a Field Artillery officer where he served three years as a Fire Support Officer and later a MLRS platoon leader before transferring to the Aviation branch until his promotion to Major General.Major General Kline commanded tactical aviation units at the company, battalion, and brigade levels. His aviation command assignments include A Company, 5th Battalion, 158th Aviation Regiment in Germany; 5th Battalion, 101st Aviation Regiment (Task Force Eagle Assault) in Fort Campbell, Kentucky and the 3rd Combat Aviation Brigade located at Hunter Army Airfield in Savannah, Georgia. In combat, Major General Kline served as the Executive Officer for 5th Battalion, 101st Aviation Regiment in Tikrit, Iraq from 2005-2006; Deputy Brigade Commander for 101st Combat Aviation Brigade in Bagram, Afghanistan in 2008; Battalion Commander of 5th Battalion, 101st Aviation Regiment at FOB Wolverine near Qalat, Afghanistan from 2010-2011; and Commander of Task Force Forge in Helmand, Afghanistan from 2015-2016. Uniquely, he also represented the United States in direct communication with the Taliban Political Commission (TPC) in Doha, Qatar in 2021. Specific to this podcast, he was Alex's commander at CIMT as his final command, overseeing the implementation of the ACFT and H2F. After leaving command but before retiring, he was the Army lead for the Ukraine/Russia Lessons study focused on capturing the lessons from that conflict, which is what we'll be focusing most of today's conversation on.

Sometimes the rankest easter eggs during Easter Eggs Month are the ones buried in the basement. Don't say we didn't warn you. To close out this month devoted to all the things that didn't survive the growing season, Christopher and Eric serve up both installments of the recent HBO Max documentary MURDER IN GLITTERBALL CITY. Some of the subjects feel uncomfortably familiar. (Did we date any of these guys?) And many of the houses on display are charming. But is this expose of two addicts moving murderous mayhem into a quaint historic neighborhood in Louisville, Kentucky a new ‘Midnight In The Garden Of Good And Evil' or a cautionary tale of filmmakers losing focus? And are we still in a place where owning bondage gear for private sexual acts is enough to implicate you in a murder? Christopher and Eric debate these and other questions as Easter Eggs Month rolls to a stop.

Trenton Battle brings nearly a decade of hands-on experience as a former field investigator with the Hopkins County Paranormal Society in Kentucky, where he actively investigated paranormal activity from 2013 to 2021. His work has taken him deep inside some of the most haunted places in America, where unexplained encounters, ghost sightings, and eerie phenomena are more than just stories—they're lived experiences. In this episode, we dive into Trenton's investigations at infamous locations like Waverly Hills Sanatorium, Bobby Mackey's Music World (often called a "portal to hell"), Octagon Hall, Perryville Battlefield, and properties connected to the Bell Witch haunting in Tennessee. These locations are known worldwide in the paranormal community for intense ghost activity, dark history, and chilling firsthand accounts from investigators and visitors alike. We also explore what it's really like to be a paranormal investigator—what happens during an investigation, how evidence is collected, and how to balance skepticism with open-minded curiosity in a field filled with both truth and exaggeration. Trenton shares insight into paranormal research, ghost hunting techniques, and the psychological impact of investigating haunted locations. But this conversation goes beyond ghosts. Trenton Battle is now the Kentucky State Representative for the North American Dogman Project, a growing organization dedicated to researching Dogman sightings and encounters across the United States. The Dogman is one of the most talked-about cryptids in modern paranormal and cryptozoology circles, often described as a large, upright, canine-like creature with intelligence and speed that defies explanation. In this episode, we discuss real Dogman encounters, witness reports, and the growing number of sightings that continue to raise questions about what may be lurking in remote forests and rural areas. Is the Dogman a misidentified animal, a cryptid, or something else entirely? We explore the theories, the evidence, and the stories that keep this mystery alive. If you're interested in paranormal investigations, haunted places, ghost hunting, cryptids, UFOs, conspiracy theories, and unexplained phenomena, this episode is packed with insight and real-world experience from someone who has spent years in the field. Whether you're a skeptic, a believer, or somewhere in between, this conversation will challenge what you think you know about the unknown.

Meet my friends, Clay Travis and Buck Sexton! If you love Verdict, the Clay Travis and Buck Sexton Show might also be in your audio wheelhouse. Politics, news analysis, and some pop culture and comedy thrown in too. Here’s a sample episode recapping four takeaways. Give the guys a listen and then follow and subscribe wherever you get your podcasts. Clay is Optimistic Clay Travis highlights what he sees as clear economic momentum under President Donald Trump, noting that the Iran naval blockade appears to be working as intended, with crude oil prices falling and both the S&P 500 and Dow Jones Industrial Average pushing toward record highs. Clay emphasizes that listeners who avoided panic during recent geopolitical tensions and tariff scares are being rewarded, as retirement accounts and 401(k)s are rebounding strongly—underscoring a recurring theme of market confidence and economic stability tied to Trump’s policies. The hour then pivots to one of the most dramatic political collapses in recent memory: the downfall of California Congressman Eric Swalwell. Clay and Buck explain that Swalwell, once a leading favorite to become California’s next governor, has now not only withdrawn from the governor’s race but has also resigned his congressional seat amid escalating allegations of sexual misconduct and criminal behavior. The hosts stress how extraordinary the speed and severity of the collapse is, noting that Swalwell had survived previous scandals—including connections to a suspected Chinese spy and constant media exposure—only to see his career end just weeks before early voting in California’s June primary. They also note that a Republican congressman in Texas has stepped down around the same time over unrelated allegations, pointing to a broader moment of political reckoning around misconduct. Sen. Rand Paul on Everything A wide‑ranging interview with Senator Rand Paul of Kentucky, who offers a constitutional critique of the U.S. military action against Iran. Paul reiterates that while he opposes Iran obtaining nuclear weapons, he believes Congress must authorize war and questions claims of imminent threat. He discusses the risks of escalation in the Strait of Hormuz, the economic impact of rising energy prices, and the uncertainty of whether negotiations can truly resolve the conflict. Paul also weighs in on Kentucky politics, strongly endorsing Congressman Thomas Massie as a constitutional conservative, emphasizing fidelity to the Constitution over unquestioning loyalty to any single political figure. The conversation broadens into Second Amendment rights, where Senator Paul argues for national constitutional carry, citing data showing lawful gun owners commit crimes at significantly lower rates than the general population. Drawing on his personal experience during the 2017 congressional baseball shooting, Paul criticizes gun‑free zones and inconsistent state laws that disarm law‑abiding citizens while leaving criminals unchecked. He also addresses the SAVE Act and voter ID, arguing that voter identification should be a basic requirement for elections and criticizing mass mail‑in voting systems that weaken confidence in electoral integrity. Two Can Play at That Game A continued focus on the U.S.–Iran conflict, as Clay and Buck note signs of de‑escalation: the S&P 500 is within a half‑percent of an all‑time high, crude oil has fallen sharply to around $88 a barrel, and gas prices appear to be stabilizing after early war‑related spikes. They explain that markets are signaling confidence that President Trump’s blockade strategy and pressure campaign are working, with Iran’s leverage shrinking and expectations growing that further negotiations—possibly in Pakistan—could follow. Buck frames the standoff as a waiting game, describing Iran’s threats in the Strait of Hormuz as “economic terrorism” and highlighting comments from Vice President JD Vance that the United States can outlast Tehran economically and militarily. The conversation then pivots back to the Eric Swalwell scandal, which dominates much of Hour 3. Clay plays extended audio from Lana Drews, the newly public accuser who alleges Swalwell drugged and violently raped her in a West Hollywood hotel room, choking her into unconsciousness. The hosts stress that this accusation is separate from and more severe than earlier reporting, helping explain why Swalwell abruptly resigned from both his gubernatorial race and Congress. They analyze the rapidly expanding fallout, including viral videos allegedly showing Swalwell in compromising situations, and public denials from figures like Senator Ruben Gallego, who had previously endorsed Swalwell but is now scrambling to distance himself. Clay and Buck argue the scandal is triggering a broader reckoning within Democratic circles, as journalists and politicians who long protected Swalwell now appear to be running for cover. This Will Make You Laugh An in‑studio interview with Sarah Isgur, SCOTUSblog editor, Advisory Opinions podcast host, and author of Last Branch Standing. Isgur challenges popular narratives about the Supreme Court, arguing that the Court is wrongly blamed for decisions that Congress refuses to make. She explains why the Court is not simply a “6–3 partisan body,” and how Congress’s abdication of legislative responsibility has forced the judiciary into the political spotlight. Clay and Buck ask about rumors that Justice Samuel Alito may retire, with Isgur explaining why the odds are roughly 50‑50 and how President Trump could shape the Court again if a vacancy opens this summer. Isgur also unpacks internal Supreme Court dynamics, particularly tensions surrounding Justice Ketanji Brown Jackson, describing her as less institutionalist and more inclined toward solo dissents—traits that can strain collegial relationships. She previews several high‑impact cases still pending this term, including Voting Rights Act redistricting disputes, birthright citizenship, election‑day ballot deadlines, and Remain in Mexico–style immigration authority, emphasizing that many of these controversies should ultimately be resolved by Congress, not the Court.
