It's Thursday and time for our week in politics with the editorial director and columnist for the Times-Picayune/The Advocate, Stephanie Grace. Today, she discusses how rising crime and the recent jailbreak are impacting approval ratings for the city's law enforcement officers. And she reviews approval ratings for the current mayoral candidates. Flag football's upcoming debut at the 2028 LA Olympics has sparked a debate: should seasoned flag football players or NFL bigshots be the ones going for gold? Recently, NFL team owners voted to allow the league's best players to compete in the Olympic games, but practiced flag football players want their chance to try out as well, arguing that they play this version of the game better than the pros. Darrell Doucette III, known as “Housh,” is quarterback of the U.S. Flag National Team and one of the top flag football players in the world. The New Orleans native joins us for more on his journey in the sport and what he hopes to see at Olympic try-outs. Starting a small business can be daunting, exciting, vexing and expensive. But in New Orleans, the not-for-profit group Propeller has been helping entrepreneurs start and grow their businesses since 2009.Propeller has appointed a new CEO, Jessica Allen, who comes from within the ranks of the group's team. She joins us for more on her plans to help grow the city's small business economy.__Today's episode of Louisiana Considered was hosted by Bob Pavlovich. Our managing producer is Alana Schreiber.

Three Olympic gold medalists engage in a no-holds-barred critique of USA Taekwondo's latest cash grab – yet another "Talent ID Camp" charging athletes $225 for a chance to be "discovered." The hosts unpack why this approach fundamentally misunderstands how genuine talent identification works in successful sports programs worldwide.Drawing from their extensive experience both as athletes and coaches, they contrast USAT's pay-to-participate model with legitimate talent development systems used by countries like Australia and China, as well as private initiatives that return proceeds directly to participating athletes. The discussion reveals a troubling pattern of leadership treating the organization as a "personal playground" while members remain complacent.Most revealing is their analysis of how America's most promising taekwondo talents are currently developing outside the national system. Athletes like Michael Rodriguez and North are finding success through private coaching arrangements, raising serious questions about the effectiveness of centralized training programs that force athletes to abandon successful coaching relationships.With the 2028 Los Angeles Olympics approaching and America automatically qualifying four athletes as host nation, the team examines what this means for USA Taekwondo's development pipeline and Olympic prospects. Their candid conversation provides an insider's view of the challenges facing American taekwondo and what must change for the U.S. to maximize its potential on the world stage.The podcast wraps with exciting predictions about the upcoming Grand Prix Challenge and reflections on what truly makes a champion – the right training partners, dedicated coaches, and the freedom to build on success rather than constantly starting over.

What if the 2028 Olympics didn't just bring medals, but a housing revolution? In this episode of Future of Work, Dr. Salvatrice Cummo sits down with Kurt Peterson, Co-President of Unite Here Local 11, to explore the mounting pressures facing hospitality workers in Los Angeles, and the explosive opportunity that the 2028 Olympics might represent. Peterson doesn't mince words. From natural disasters like wildfires to economic disruptions like COVID-19, hospitality workers have repeatedly borne the brunt of crisis after crisis. And while tourism is rebounding, the industry's recovery has largely left workers behind. Peterson argues that the real crisis now isn't just wages, it's housing. As the world turns its eyes toward LA in 2028, Peterson makes one thing clear: if the Olympics can afford luxury, it can and must afford dignity, equity, and a place for workers to call home. You'll learn: What mega-events like the Olympics could mean for Labor Rights. How employers use crises to cut labor and what unions are doing about it. How housing became the central fight for LA workers. Why the decommissioned Santa Monica Airport could be LA's housing lifeline. Learn why Unite Here Local 11 is prepared to stage an unprecedented strike during the 2028 Olympics. About the Guest: Kurt Petersen is Co-President of UNITE HERE Local 11, representing over 35,000 hotel and food service workers across Southern California and Arizona. A Notre Dame alum with studies in theology and philosophy, Kurt nearly joined the Jesuits before earning his law degree from Yale and organizing with the United Farm Workers, where he helped secure Washington State's first farm worker union contract. Since 1995, he has led efforts that brought over 25,000 workers into UNITE HERE and helped transform Local 11 into a major political and labor force. He's currently leading the largest hotel strike in U.S. history, with over 10,000 workers striking 175 times at 54 hotels. The resulting contracts include historic wage increases and are set to expire just before the 2028 LA Olympics. Kurt was recently named to the Los Angeles Times 2024 LA Influential list alongside Co-Presidents Ada Briceño and Susan Minato.

The weekend has finally arrived. And I'm still not 100%. Feeling a bit better than yesterday, but still coughing up chunky phlegm and dealing with stuffy sinus issues. Blech. Maybe some time outside in the warmer temps this weekend will help. Normally on a Friday, Doc would join us by phone, but with Jean in Nashville, he decided to join me in the studio this morning for the entire show, including his weekly Racing Report thanks to County Materials in Holmen. In the news this morning, a deadly helicopter crash in New York yesterday, bridge inspections in the Eau Claire area begin next week, Wisconsin school districts will not be complying with a directive from the Trump administration to eliminate DEI programs, Democratic Party Chair Ben Wikler will not run for reelection, road construction on I-90/94 near the Dells begins next week, and Publishers Clearing House is filing for bankruptcy. In sports, the Brewers lost to the Rockies yesterday, but the Bucks got their sixth win in a row last night by beating the Pelicans. Day one of the Masters ended yesterday with Justin Rose in the lead, Alexander Ovechkin got a hero's welcome in Washington last night, and a few NFL refs have been demoted by the league. Elsewhere in sports, a golfer at the Masters was caught peeing in a creek on the course during play, and a bunch of new & mixed-gender events are coming to the LA Olympics in 2028. We let you know what's on TV this weekend and what's in theaters. And check out these heroic state troopers who were able to locate a missing child by helicopter. In the most obvious news of all time, whacking off before bed can help you have a better night's sleep. Tomorrow is "National Grilled Cheese Sandwich Day", so we discussed some stats on one of our favorite sammies. And in other food news, a restaurant in South Carolina has a S'mores/Oyster hybrid on it's menu. Sounds disgusting. Betty White lived a very long time and most of us know that a daily hot dog was one of her secrets to a long life. But apparently, she also admitted that some vodka & chocolate cake in the morning might have helped. And in today's edition of "Bad News with Happy Music", we had stories about a DUI in Iowa involving some construction equipment, a guy in China who loved sniffing his smelly socks so much that he developed a lung infection, a woman who called AAA to fix her flat tire after the cops used spike-strips on her car during a high speed chase, an assistant principal who got a foot massage from a student, and a former judge who shot her ex-husband AND her ex-boyfriend.

In this Spotlight episode, Ross and Gareth tackle a provocative question: should sports embrace fatigue to make the show better? We kick off with rugby union, where fresh legs off the bench and player welfare are fuelling debates about injury risks. But things quickly get philosophical. Some sports are basically designed to test how much fatigue you can take. Others are compromised when fatigue creeps in — skills drop, mistakes rise — yet fatigue also cranks up the drama and emotion. So, which sports thrive when athletes are running on empty, and which ones fall apart? And what would happen if you dialed up fatigue across the board — would it wreck the sport or make it even better?We also take a quick spin through the opening Grand Slam Track meeting in Jamaica, and peek ahead to the LA Olympics, where a bunch of new sports and events just got announced. Plus, concussion protocols and management are in the spotlight: a study from Scotland provides the first results on the lowering of tackle height in the community game; cyclist Elisa Longo-Borghini was pulled mid-race at Flanders; and Aussie cricketer Will Pucovski retired after his 13th concussion. Finally, we throw out a few predictions for Paris-Roubaix this Sunday. Got thoughts on these topics?

IOC announces BOMBSHELL changes to PUNISH females athletes and push TRANSGENDERS at LA Olympics!
“I became world champion in a year and a half. People ain't been on my level. I'm more than special.” Fred Kerley Fred Kerley's speed on the track is matched only by the intensity of his mindset and the strength of his journey. Sitting with Ryan, Channing and Fred- the guys are taking back by his serious demeanor and no-play attitude. From a football and basketball hopeful to one of the fastest men in the universe, the Olympic medalist and world champion sits down with The Pivot crew to talk about the twists, turns, and challenges that shaped his career. Kerley doesn't hold back as he reflects on the defining moments of his life, Growing up in a tough environment, being adopted, and making a life-changing decision to leave Texas to pursue a professional contract, which he credits to helping him mature faster and avoiding the pitfalls that trapped so many around him. Kerley opens up about handling various pressures of being an elite sprinter and how hundreds of hours of preparation comes down to less than a minute and how your whole life and career can change in 9 seconds. Building up mental resilience to stay focused and achieve success is the goal every second of the day. While Fred dominates the track, he shares his thoughts on life beyond racing—his love for farming, his dedication to his kids, and why he believes track and field doesn't get the respect it deserves compared to the NBA and NFL. Of course, Kerley doesn't shy away from the rivalries that fuel his competitive fire, taking direct aim at Noah Lyles: “Go look at the record books, look who got more wins.” Whether it's lining up against the best in the world or proving his critics wrong, Kerley is confident in his abilities and unapologetic in his approach. With high expectations swirling around the 2028 LA Olympics, he's determined to go out on top and spend his next 2 years regaining his title as fastest man in the world.
