THE PODCAST AMLooking back onSolid Gold Soul, I came across some radio memories from WJMO AM Cleveland dating back to 1995 on YouTube. The show featured Solid Gold Soul with David Jackson, which was also broadcasted on WELS-FM in Kinston, NC. I used to listen to Solid Gold Soul frequently and still recall the catchy jingle celebrating classic soul hits from the 60s and 70s. They showcased incredible tracks like Martha Reeves & the Vandellas' “Honey Chile, Third Finger, Left Hand,” which I mistakenly believed was called "Wedding Band." They also played Aretha Franklin's “The House That Jack Built” and Tina Charles' “I'll Go Where Your Music Takes Me.” It puzzles me why radio stations that play such great hits eventually change formats. They often transition to genres like Gospel or Country. I think a station like that could easily incorporate Gospel on Sundays and Country on Saturdays, while still showcasing the beloved soul hits throughout the week. I really miss Solid Gold Soul.I'm Gail Nobles. You're listening to the Podcast AM. A show about the AM Stories on the Cat Bear.

Democrat Kamala Harris and Republican Donald Trump zeroed in on the Sun Belt on Saturday as they embarked on one last weekend quest to sway every undecided voter in the battleground states.11月2日，民主党候选人卡玛拉·哈里斯和共和党候选人唐纳德·特朗普将目光投向了“阳光地带”。他们开始了最后一个周末的征程，以动摇各“战场州”所有未做决定的选民。They pitched rival agendas on the economy — and more — that each insisted is what US citizens want in the upcoming election that falls on Tuesday, which is predicted by US media to be the "most divisive" in history.他们就经济等问题提出了对立的议程，且双方都坚持认为这是美国公民在即将于11月5日举行的大选中想要的。这次大选被美国媒体预言为“史上最撕裂”的选举。The rivals literally crossed paths on Saturday, with Harris' official vice-presidential Air Force Two and Trump's personal jet sharing the airport tarmac in Charlotte, North Carolina.11月2日，二人“同州打擂”。哈里斯的副总统专机“空军二号”和特朗普的私人飞机在北卡罗来纳州夏洛特机场的停机坪相遇。Both held rallies in North Carolina, while Harris also spoke to supporters in Georgia, another of the seven swing states seen as the keys to victory in an otherwise dead-even nationwide contest. Trump added in a stop in Virginia.两人都在北卡罗来纳州举行了集会，哈里斯还在佐治亚州向支持者发表讲话。佐治亚州也是七个“摇摆州”之一，被视为在这场全国范围的竞争中胜负的关键。特朗普还在弗吉尼亚州停留了一站。"We have overcome every attack, every abuse and even two assassination attempts," Trump said at a rally in Gastonia, North Carolina, outside Charlotte.“我们克服了每一次攻击、每一次辱骂，甚至两次暗杀企图。”特朗普在北卡罗来纳州夏洛特郊外加斯顿尼亚的一次集会上说。Later, Trump headed to Virginia, which isn't considered a battleground state, but offered a similar message, telling supporters that there is no way he can lose and is on the cusp of "the greatest political victory in the history of our country".随后，特朗普前往弗吉尼亚州，该州并不被认为是“战场州”，但特朗普也传达了类似的信息，告诉支持者他不可能输，他正处于“我国历史上最伟大的政治胜利”的风口浪尖。Harris, meanwhile, has been urging her supporters to vote early so she can be elected and provide the "new generation of leadership "that she argues she represents.与此同时，哈里斯一直在敦促她的支持者提前投票，以便她能够当选，并提供她认为自己所代表的“新一代领导力”。"I am ready to offer that leadership as the next president of the United States of America," she said during remarks in a rally at the Atlanta Civic Center parking lot.“作为美利坚合众国的下一任总统，我已经准备好发挥领导作用。”哈里斯在亚特兰大市政中心停车场举行的一次集会上说。In a bid to reach out beyond her traditional support bases, Harris wrapped a day on the campaign trail Saturday with a surprise appearance on Saturday Night Live TV show.11月2日，哈里斯在电视节目《周六夜现场》（SNL）中意外亮相，结束了一天的竞选行程，以求在传统支持群体之外扩大影响力。Seventy-five million people have cast early ballots ahead of Tuesday, Agence France-Presse reported. As of Saturday evening, neither candidate had a margin greater than 3 points in any of the seven battleground states set to determine the presidency, according to the polling averages maintained by RealClearPolitics.据法新社报道，在11月5日之前，已有7500万美国人提前投票。根据RealClearPolitics统计的民调平均值，截至11月2日晚间，在即将决定总统归属的七个“战场州”中，两位候选人的支持率相差均未超过3个百分点。The winner might not be known for several days, as states like Pennsylvania will need time to tally their mail votes.由于宾夕法尼亚州等州需要时间统计邮寄选票，获胜者可能几天后才会揭晓。Harris was due to campaign on Sunday in East Lansing, Michigan, a college town in an industrial state that is viewed as a must-win for the Democrat.哈里斯将于11月3日在密歇根州东兰辛市开展竞选活动，这是一个工业州的大学城，被视为是民主党人必须获胜的地方。Trump was to hold rallies in three smaller cities that could help him galvanize the rural voters who make up an important part of his base. He starts the day in Lititz, Pennsylvania, before heading to Kinston, North Carolina, in the afternoon and ending with an evening rally in Macon, Georgia.特朗普将在三个较小的城市举行集会，这可能有助于他激励农村选民，这些选民构成了他的重要基础。他在宾夕法尼亚州的利蒂茨开始一天的行程，下午前往北卡罗来纳州的金斯顿，晚上在乔治亚州的梅肯举行集会。The candidates' schedules will run right into Monday, culminating with late-night rallies — in Grand Rapids, Michigan, for Trump and Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, for Harris.两位候选人的日程安排一直持续到11月4日，最后将在深夜举行集会——特朗普在密歇根州的大急流城，哈里斯在宾夕法尼亚州的费城。Source of stress压力来源An annual survey by the American Psychological Association revealed in October that the election has become a significant source of stress for US citizens, who fear that the election results could trigger political violence and even lead to the "end of American democracy".美国心理学会10月发布的一项年度调查显示，今年的大选已成为美国民众的一个重要压力来源，民众担心选举结果引发政治暴力，甚至导致“美国民主的终结”。In the past three months, Trump has survived several assassination attempts. Harris' campaign office in Arizona was also shot at and vandalized. Political violence is on the rise as polarization and public opinion divisions intensify ahead of the election.过去三个多月里，特朗普已经历多次未遂刺杀，哈里斯竞选团队在亚利桑那州的一处办公室遭枪击破坏。今年美国大选在政治极化和舆论撕裂加剧的同时，政治暴力也愈演愈烈。Rachel Kleinfeld, a senior fellow at the Carnegie Endowment for International Peace, noted that attacks on candidates are nearly inevitable in today's highly tense political and public opinion climate.美国智库卡内基国际和平研究院民主、冲突和治理项目高级研究员蕾切尔·克莱因菲尔德指出，在当前高度紧张的政治和舆论环境下，候选人被袭击几乎是不可避免的。A recent Quinnipiac University poll found that nearly three quarters of potential voters are worried about the political violence that might follow the election results. Tim Malloy, the university's poll analyst, noted that many voters fear the escalation of political rhetoric could ignite such violence.昆尼皮亚克大学近期的一项民调显示，约四分之三的美国潜在选民表示，他们担心今年总统选举结果出来后会发生政治暴力事件。该大学民调分析师蒂姆·马洛伊说，许多选民担心政治言论的升温沸腾会成为政治暴力的导火索。divisiveadj. 分裂的ballotn．选票culminatev. 达到极点galvanizev. 激励某人行动起来vandalizev. 肆意破坏(尤指公共财产)

Marsha Gray Hill was born and raised in Kinston, North Carolina, before marrying her husband, Gregg, and becoming Mrs. Marsha Hill in 1976.  Her adventurous life of raising five children alongside her eldest son's burgeoning professional tennis career included lots of love and way too many drives down I-95 in a massive Southwind camper. Fifteen grandchildren later, Marsha is still a southern girl, splitting her time between Georgia and Florida.  Her family is her pride and joy, and while caring for her mother throughout the COVID pandemic, she experienced firsthand what it's like to advocate for a deteriorating parent. This experience inspired her to become a voice for compassion and human dignity, which led her to write her debut book, Grief and Grit(s): A Daughter's Journey of Love and Loss When the World Was Upside-Down, published by Forefront Books and distributed by Simon and Schuster-- hitting shelves far and wide on February 13, 2024! In this episode, Marsha shares her touching story of caring for her mother with Alzheimer's in the especially challenging time of early-Covid-19; how this experience led her to write a book, both to honor her mother and be a source of support for caretakers and grievers alike; and offers words of advice for anyone facing the responsibility of caring for a loved one who is no longer able to advocate for themselves.   You may connect with Marsha through her website:  https://marshagrayhill.com/ Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/marshagrayhill/ Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/marshagrayhill You can connect with Lauren on Instagram @lauren.samay and @mymourningroutinepodcast, on Facebook @lauren.samay.coaching or through www.laurensamay.com If you are tuning in and finding value in these episodes, please take a moment to rate and review My Mourning Routine on Apple Podcasts-- it means so much and helps make a bigger, connecting splash in the podcasting pond:  https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/my-mourning-routine/id1654068541 Sign up for Lauren's newsletter  here.

Bonita Burney Simmons Born to Sing... Without a doubt, Bonita has been anointed to sing! She was born on March 28, 1971 in Stamford, CT and was singing before she could even speak! As early as age 3, Bonita would hear lyrics on the radio and mimic exactly what she heard. During her first live performance, Bonita blew her audience away! People were so impressed and amazed, as they simply couldn't believe this big voice was coming from such a little girl! After spending her early years with her parents in Hartford,CT, her family relocated to Kinston, NC in 1974. Bonita would hone her skills while participating in music programs offered in Lenoir County Public Schools. She joined the chorus and in 5th grade, she was chosen to sing “The Way We Were” by Barbara Streisand. When she sang that song, there was not a dry eye in the room. During her 8th & 9th grade years, she was always active in the community, performing at events like NAACP banquets or weddings. She is a graduate of Kinston High School, Class of 1989, an alumni of Craven Community College with an Associates of Arts, and and alumni of the UAFWB Bible College where she graduated as valedictorian of the 2015 class with a Bachelor of Biblical Studies. To maintain a competitive edge, Bonita took years of private lessons with vocal coaches under the tutelage of Thomasine Hassell, Chantel Hollacheck, the late Wynona Daves, and Martha Mainor. Bonita's Singing Career... At age 12, she started her own gospel singing group, a trio called “Tried by Fire.” Determined and focused, Bonita thrived in her role as band leader and demonstrated her entrepreneurial skills at a very young age. Bonita would open up for all the national recording gospel artists who came to town like Shirley Caesar, John P. Kee, Luther Barnes, The Winans, The Williams Brothers and many others. Bonita has appeared and won first place on numerous occasions at the world famous Apollo Theatre in New York City. By the time she reached high school, she was already considered a professional singer! Today, Bonita is enjoying the flexibility of being an independent recording artist. Her talent is in high demand, as she is frequently requested to sing at venues and events throughout Eastern North Carolina! In June of 2017,  Bonita was nominated and won two awards given by The Rhythm of Gospel Awards for Traditional Artist of the Year and Best Performance by a Female Artist in Jacksonville, Florida. She also in July of 2017 was nominated and recognized as the winner in the Independent Gospel Artist category of Traditional Vocalist of the Year from the Radio Alliance Awards also located in Jacksonville, Florida.  Although she's experienced many tribulations, Bonita's life lessons are part of her unique tapestry that enables her to relate to people who are hurting. One of her biggest accomplishments is her outreach work with those who are incarcerated, sharing God's love through song. Indeed, Bonita has defined her own success, choosing to embrace an obedient lifestyle according to God's will for her life and career. She simply allows God to do the navigation and depends solely on Him to direct her career path- living by her motto, “If I make the way, then I'll have to pay the way. But if I allow HIM to make the way, he'll pay the way!" Bonita married her husband/manager, Eric B. Simmons in 1994. They have three wonderful children- Mykeva, E.J. and Landon. In October of 2000, Bonita was ordained into the Ministry as "Elder" by national Bishop Andrew Mcrorey Jr. of the Joy Mission Church of Deliverance, Hartford, CT. She also continues to serve Family Worship Center, "Ministry of Restoration" where the Pastor is George E. Fields Jr. Because serving and outreach is a part of the tapestry for Bonita's unique song ministry, being a part of the legacy of her father, the late, Bishop Landon O. Burney and the ministry that he founded is the reason she serves with great tenacity. Bonita and her family became members of Without Limits Christian Center in 2016 where the Pastors are James and Le'Conte McIver. Whenever and wherever there's a NEED; Bonita serves

From the quaint town of Kinston, North Carolina, emerged an unexpected advocate for a unique business venture - Lonnie. Hailing from a family with diverse professions but a shared aspiration to "Give Back," Lonnie embarked on a quest to provide housing solutions to those in need. Thus began his journey with the Group Home business. For over a decade, Lonnie thrived as a dedicated teacher, coach, and teammate. The art of teaching, imparting knowledge, values, and transforming lives, fueled his passion. However, the urge to do more, to contribute further to his family, himself, and the community, kindled within him. Lonnie took a bold step, transitioning from teaching to a new chapter. In a world where inflation hinders many from affording housing, Lonnie sought solutions. This quest led him to Group Home Riches, a transformative business model. Not only does it empower community impact, but as podcast testimonials affirm, it's a pathway to increased profitability - a win-win for all. Contrasting the substantial investment often required in real estate, Group Home Business stands out. Affordable courses encompassing comprehensive learning provide a gateway to real estate investment. Lonnie's Group Home journey was marked by tireless research. Countless hours were devoted to contingency planning, ensuring readiness for any scenario. Understanding that sustainable monthly rental income sometimes eludes traditional approaches, he recognized the potential in group home operations. Landlords benefit from steady cash flow, a relief from mortgage concerns. In his pursuit of self-improvement, Lonnie uncovered a game-changing book, "Your Mind Can Cure." This pivotal discovery transformed his perspective and fueled his desire to reach untapped potentials. Lonnie's story teaches us that remarkable transformations begin with a yearning to make a difference. Take your first step today as being a part of the game changer to those who are in need of housing. Visit www.grouphomeriches.com to get your free training material.

We're now just nine days away from the 2023 NBA draft. The Charlotte Hornets hold the second overall pick, but New Orleans Pelicans have their eyes on Scoot Henderson. Does this mean they could trade up to No. 2? Chris Lea & Dennis Cox discuss how the Hornets could make a trade with the Pelicans to gain Kinston, NC, native Brandon Ingram.  Also, Chris Spatola, ESPN, provides insight on former NC State guard Terquavion Smith's draft profile and how he could benefit an NBA team. 

Local baseball fans were so excited last month with the announcement that the Down East Wood Ducks would be moving to Spartanburg from their current home in Kinston, NC that they could practically smell the hot dogs. Once here, the team will play its games in the 3,500-seat centerpiece of a  along S Daniel Morgan Ave., which in addition to the ballpark will feature tens of thousands of square feet of residential, office space, and retail. A lot of work is still yet to be done before the stands are filled for the first pitch of a minor league baseball game in Spartanburg since 1994. The City, County, developer, and team will need to approve agreements to bring the development to fruition, designs for the stadium and nearby developments will need to be approved, and then the largest construction project in Downtown Spartanburg history will get underway, transforming the vast and vacant site that exists today into a hub of entertainment and commerce unlike anything our community has ever seen. Today on the podcast, we're talking with City Manager Chris Story about those next steps and about the impact this transformational investment will have in Spartanburg.

Out of our three triangle teams, which program has the early advantage heading into college basketball next season? NC State is looking at two Kinston natives in Dontrez Styles, and Damian Dun, an All-AAC player from Temple. North Carolina, received good news within their program at Bacot and Davis would be returning, but the question remains of what Caleb Love will do next season. Finally, could we be seeing a change in culture over at Duke as far as players staying for more than just one year? 

NC State is off and running in the transfer portal with several prospects already emerging at the top of its list this offseason. Two critical visitors will be on campus this coming weekend in Dontrez Styles and Damian Dunn as the Pack looks to restart the Kinston pipeline through the portal. But those aren't the only targets near the top of the list and the roster moves aren't done for NC State with several players set to return and more potentially moving on. Listen to the full Twitter Spaces session with Cory Smith and Miles Masercola below! This podcast is sponsored by Scott Wood and the Scott Wood Home Lending Team.

The transfer portal is an all-out brawl currently for college basketball coaches as some schools are having to deal with players leaving such as North Carolina. While others are looking to gain players from the portal such as NC State. If you're Kevin Keatts, you have to replicate what you did last year by getting a guy like Jarkel Joiner to help carry the load of the team. Maybe he should look at two players from Kinston, NC that are out in the portal currently to fill that role.  Also, members of the Carolina Panthers organization made the travel to Tuscaloosa, AL to view the pro-day at Alabama and get a glimpse of Bryce Young. When it comes down to Stroud and Young at who you want as your quarterback, the answer could be quite simple based on size alone.

For decades, folks traveling along a long, lonely stretch of country road, just east of Kinston, Alabama have claimed to hear the faint sounds of a fiddle playing, or the tap tap tap of dancing feet off in the distance on Saturday Nights. But here's the thing, these sounds, which seem as if they are coming from a lively party, are in fact emanating from an old, empty country cemetery. It's said that those who hear this phantom music and dancing steps have had an encounter with one of Alabama's most well-known spirits, the dancing ghost of ‘Grancer' Harrison. William ‘Grancer' Harrison established a successful 2,500-acre cotton plantation on land just outside what is now Kinston. Though a planter, it was said that Harrison enjoyed nothing more than the company of his friends, so much so that several times a month he'd throw parties, barbecues, or horse races for all to enjoy. Harrison even went so far as to build his own dance hall to ensure that fun could be had. When Harrison died he was buried in his dancing clothes and shoes, in a grave near the dance hall to ensure that he would always be part of festivities that occurred at the plantation.   It was said that not long after the parties finally stopped, spectral sounds of fiddle music and disembodied dancing began to emanate from the cemetery on Saturday nights. The parties may be over, but Grancer Harrison ain't done just yet. Sign up for our newsletter for a chance to win a copy of the latest Morbid Curious!
