Georgia's back in play, and this time it's John Ossoff's seat on the line. Everyone remembers how both Senate seats flipped blue in 2020, arguably the biggest down-ballot upset of that cycle. Now Ossoff is up for re-election, and while a lot of people in Democratic circles have high hopes for him, I'm not one of them. I think he's competent, but in a low-turnout election, he's vulnerable — especially against a Republican who can straddle the MAGA base and suburban swing voters. And the one guy who could have done that with ease? Brian Kemp. But Kemp says he's out.That opens the door to speculation — and apparently, to Derek Dooley. I didn't believe it at first. Dooley is a football coach. He's never held elected office, never coached a team in Georgia, and hasn't been politically active in any public sense. But people in Kemp's orbit kept saying his name. Supposedly, he's a close family friend. That's fine. It just doesn't make him Senate material. Especially not in a race where Georgia Republicans need a serious contender to take out an incumbent Democrat.Meanwhile, Buddy Carter and Mike Collins have both declared. Of the two, Collins has more momentum. People I talk to say Kemp World isn't enthusiastic about rallying behind Dooley, and they're not thrilled about having to realign with someone new. Collins could benefit from that vacuum — especially if he secures Trump's endorsement. And if Kemp doesn't step back in or offer a viable replacement, Collins may very well end up the nominee.The tension between Trump and Kemp adds another layer. These two have never been close — their feud goes back to Georgia's certification of the 2020 election and the high-profile primaries that followed. Trump tried to run challengers against both Kemp and Brad Raffensperger, and they destroyed them. So if Trump goes all-in on Collins, and Kemp World is still wandering around trying to sell people on Dooley, it's going to be a messy primary.But let's game it out. If Dooley fizzles and Collins gets hot, then by the fall, we might be looking at Mike Collins versus Jon Ossoff in a high-stakes Senate race. Collins will make Ossoff answer for the border, for crime, and for culture war issues like trans athletes — all while wrapping himself in the Lake and Riley Act. That law, named after a murder victim killed by an undocumented immigrant, is going to be the core of his messaging. It's brutal. It's effective. And it could work.Still, there's one wild card left: Brian Kemp himself. He made his announcement back in April, but if the economy is strong and the polling is tight come Thanksgiving, could he reconsider? Stranger things have happened. And Kemp is the only Republican in Georgia with a proven statewide machine, broad appeal, and a serious shot at clearing the field. If he's still lurking in the background, this race isn't over. In fact, it hasn't even started.Chapters00:00:00 - Intro00:03:40 - Georgia Senate Race00:20:32 - Update00:20:54 - Kamala Harris00:24:06 - South Korea Trade Deal00:26:24 - Trump's White House Ballroom00:28:07 - Interview with Josh Jennings01:18:15 - Wrap-up This is a public episode.

Even a tiny goldfish can help a mama's heart cope with a big transition.This week's episode is all about Peter the fish — and the surprising emotional waves he created in the Greene household. As Max prepares to leave for college, this unexpected pet helps the family face change, build connection, and rediscover the power of responsibility and love (even if it swims in circles). Rebecca, Seth, and Ella share a heartfelt, humorous, and insightful look into the latest family adventure — and it all starts with a carnival goldfish. From tank mishaps to parenting epiphanies, this episode is full of relatable moments that every parent navigating change will understand. ➡️ Peter the Fish became the newest member of the Greene household after Lily's boyfriend won him at a carnival. What started as a simple bowl turned into a full-on aquatic setup, complete with lessons in goldfish care and responsibility.➡️ Ella shares her poetic moment of sitting at Max's desk, taking care of his cat and fish — calling it a “changing of the guard.” She reflects on what it feels like to step into her brother's world as he begins a new chapter.➡️ Rebecca opens up about how Peter helped her emotionally. Max's room, once a sad place in his absence, now feels warm and comforting thanks to their new pet. Peter has become a small but meaningful way for Rebecca to cope with the transition of her son leaving for college.➡️ The family talks candidly about the reality of pet ownership. Rebecca admits she had no idea how complicated fish care was — but Max took the reins, researched everything, and handled it like a pro.➡️ Parenting reflection: Rebecca wishes she'd introduced pets earlier. Seeing Max take responsibility for Peter showed her how good it is for kids to have something to care for — something that isn't just about themselves.➡️ Life behind the scenes: Lily's Bat Mitzvah planning is in full swing, and Rebecca is deep in it. From décor to logistics, it's become a full-time job, and she shares what this journey has been like emotionally and mentally.➡️ Rebecca and Seth also chat about planning their 20th wedding anniversary celebration — tossing around ideas from Niagara-on-the-Lake to Atlantis in the Bahamas, with lots of laughs along the way.➡️ Don't forget to visit whinypaluza.com and sign up for Rebecca's free parenting resources and weekly emails full of love, tools, and support.➡️ Help Rebecca reach more parents by subscribing, rating, and leaving a short review — it makes a big difference and helps spread Whinypaluza to more amazing families like yours. ➡️ Join the Whinypaluza Moms Facebook Group — it's free, fun, and full of supportive moms who get it.

Spend an hour with JP Bushey, and you'll quickly understand why his reputation as one of eastern Georgian Bay's premier fishing guides has spread far beyond Ontario's shores. Unlike those who picked up a rod five years ago after watching a YouTube sensation, JP's connection to these waters spans four generations – fishing isn't just what he does, it's literally in his blood.When JP made the leap from corporate life to full-time guiding a decade ago, even he was surprised by how quickly his business flourished. The secret? A rare combination of exceptional fishing knowledge and genuine passion for creating memorable experiences. "You're with these people for eight-plus hours straight," JP explains. "The fishing's a big part of it, but you've got to keep the wheels on the bus turning." This philosophy has earned him a loyal clientele who return year after year.What sets Georgian Bay apart, according to JP, is the remarkable variety accessible within minutes rather than hours. Lake trout, smallmouth bass, walleye, pike, and trophy muskies all thrive within what he describes as "a 1.5 kilometer circle" around his dock. This proximity not only maximizes fishing time but creates opportunities for anglers to experience multiple species in a single outing – a rarity in many destinations.Throughout the conversation, JP shares priceless insights about seasonal patterns, particularly his love for topwater fishing when water temperatures consistently reach the 70s and cabbage patches begin showing "pokers" breaking the surface. For younger anglers especially, the visual excitement of surface strikes creates instant connection and confidence. "That's a powerful thing for a young mind – it's a confidence thing. I can do it. He showed me how to do it. He told me this was going to happen and I made it happen."Perhaps most moving is JP's passionate plea for conservation alongside enjoyment. "Put as much time, care and passion into handling them nice as you did into driving up there and catching one," he advises, noting that every angler becomes personally responsible for the resource the moment a fish enters their net. It's this balance of excitement and stewardship that defines truly great guides – something JP Bushey has clearly mastered.Ready to experience Georgian Bay's legendary fishing? Search for Bushey Angle Guided Fishing and prepare for an adventure that might just change how you see the sport forever.

It's the Day Before Rowling's 60th birthday so Nick and John tackle by reader request the never before discussed subject of the Lost Child theme in the author's more than twenty published works. They re-introduce the Golden Threads idea — see their Pregnancy Trap podcast or the two Kanreki series on this subject (here and here) — then they do a deep dive into the crowded waters of Lost Children in her work, and then they go out out on a high-wire to speculate about what specific spring in her Lake subconscious mind is responsible for this recurrent inspiration. Enjoy!New to the Lake and Shed Kanreki Birthday series? Here's what we're doing:On 31 July 2025, Joanne Murray, aka J. K. Rowling and Robert Galbraith, will be celebrating her 60th birthday. This celebration is considered a ‘second birth' in Japan or Kanreki because it is the completion of the oriental astrological cycle. To mark JKR's Kanreki, Dr John Granger and Nick Jeffery, both Nipponophiles, are reading through Rowling's twenty-one published works and reviewing them in light of the author's writing process, her ‘Lake and Shed' metaphor. The ‘Lake' is the biographical source of her inspiration; the ‘Shed' is the alocal place of her intentional artistry, in which garage she transforms the biographical stuff provided by her subconscious mind into the archetypal stories that have made her the most important author of her age. You can hear Nick and John discuss this process and their birthday project at the first entry in this series of posts: Happy Birthday, JKR! A Lake and Shed Celebration of her Life and Work.Tomorrow? John and Nick pull out all the stops on Rowling's 60th birthday to challenge the status quo of Rowling Studies with a reading of her work in light of a possible inspiration for the ubiquitous ‘Lost Child' Golden Thread in her work. Stay tuned!Links to posts mentioned in today's Lake and Shed conversation for further reading:'Pregnancy Traps' in the Works of J. K.

AP correspondent Haya Panjwani reports on parents wanting warnings after a brain-eating amoeba killed their son.

Lake Superior has always had a magnetic power through the history of life in North America, drawing people to its shores and on its waves for millennia and this continue more so in the modern age. It would seem that it seems that the Lake even holds sway over those of a Fortean nature too, with strange creatures seen in its depths, mysterious disappearances, UFO sightings by the bucket load and haunted locations all around its shores. In his brand new book, Supernatural Lake Superior, our friend Chad Lewis takes us on a trip to some of the area's most notable cases, accounts and lighthouse on the hunt for the strange!

When I heard Texas Parks and Wildlife was spraying toxic chemicals into the Caddo Lake water system, my interest was instantly peaked. Why would they do this? Surely there is scientific data available that lead them to believe spraying poison into the water and onto the century old cypress trees was somehow beneficial... Captain Danny [...]

Lake Superior is not only the largest of the Great Lakes, but the water quality is also some of the clearest. Yet, historically, the Lake was often a dumping ground for all kinds of debris.  "Out of sight, out of mind” was an all-too-common mindset. Don Fassbender, president of Great Lakes Scuba Diving and Lake Preservation, has made it his life's mission to clean up Lake Superior's underwater world. With volunteers, including fellow divers and kayakers, he estimates 14 tons of tires have been hauled up from Marquette MIchigan's Lower Harbor. In this episode of the Lake Superior Podcast, Walt Lindala and Frida Waara talk with Don about how his mission started and the mysteries he's found below the surface. Key Takeaways + Notable Quotes:A Lifelong Passion for Diving Inspired by Jacques Cousteau“As a young man, I can recall racing home from school just so I wouldn't miss the undersea world of Jacques Cousteau.”Vintage Diving Equipment Connects Divers More Intimately with the Water“There's actually less things that can go wrong... Vintage kit would look like a tank, a regulator, some fins, maybe a wetsuit and a mask, and then you're off. No computers, no fancy gauges.”Tons of Trash are Hidden Beneath Lake Superior“We removed, what, 14 tons of tires out of Marquette Lower Harbor alone over a period of about five years. And there's still a lot of trash down there.”Removing Underwater Debris is Complex and LaboriousHeavy items, poor visibility, and underwater hazards make cleanup efforts extremely challenging.Why Tires are Prevalent in Lake Superior“Tires were used as boat bumpers for years and years…as weather wears them down…they would just string another one up in its place.”Community Involvement is Essential for Successful CleanupsVolunteers on land, in boats, and even kayaks significantly contribute to cleanup missions.Safety and Equipment Needs Drive Fundraising EffortsSpecialized gear and safety equipment are critical for diver safety and efficiency.Surprising Finds Beneath the Surface Tell Unique Stories“One of my favorite finds, a little diamond ring that was tied to a rock with a shoelace.” Every item retrieved from Lake Superior carries its own history, some humorous, some mysterious.Resources:Great Lakes Scuba Divershttps://greatlakesscubadivers.comConnect with Diver Don on Facebookhttps://www.facebook.com/DiverDonScubahttps://www.facebook.com/GreatLakesScubaDiversContact Don directly with cleanup leadsEmail: president@greatlakesscubadivers.comConnect With Us:Lake Superior Podcast Page – https://nplsf.org/podcastFacebook – https://www.facebook.com/NationalParksOfLakeSuperiorFoundationLinkedIn – https://www.linkedin.com/company/national-parks-of-lake-superior-foundationSponsors:Cafe Imports – Minneapolis-based importers of specialty green coffees since 1993, focused on sustainability.Learn more: https://cafeimports.comNational Parks of Lake Superior Foundation – Donate to protect Lake Superior's five national parks:https://nplsf.org/donateBe sure to tune in to this episode of the Lake Superior Podcast to hear Diver Don Fassbender share firsthand experiences from beneath Lake Superior's waters, the incredible teamwork required for environmental preservation, and how you can help protect the Great Lakes.
