Podcasts about Lehigh Valley

In the quiet borough of Catasauqua, Pennsylvania, the days leading up to Christmas in 1994 should have been filled with the familiar comforts of the season. Instead, an unsettling silence settled over a neighborhood when a young mother and her infant son seemingly vanished without a trace. Their home held troubling clues, their car would soon be found abandoned nearby, and a community accustomed to knowing its neighbors suddenly found itself gripped by fear and uncertainty.As investigators searched for answers, rumors spread through the ornamented streets and suspicion seemed to fall in every direction. What happened inside that small Pennsylvania town would become one of the region's most haunting mysteries: a case marked by compulsion, secrets, and a trail of evidence that only seemed to raise more questions. Tonight, we follow the twists and turns of an investigation that would captivate the Lehigh Valley for years, and uncover a story far darker than anyone could have imagined.Trigger warning: This case involves violence against a child under one.Sponsors:Rula patients typically pay $15 per session when using insurance.

A Shards Session with Lehigh Valley garage rock band The Further; live sets recorded at Homebase Skateshop from Leadpetal, Headzo, and Wipes; an interview with Chris Devlin of Headzo.

Nate Gruber sits down with No Regrets Regional Champion Brennen Sullivan for a conversation about the No Regrets Leadership Pathway and the work of releasing men into ministry and reproducing leaders who make disciples. Brennen is a pastor, disciple multiplier, and men's ministry leader living in the Lehigh Valley of Pennsylvania. In this episode, he shares practical wisdom from his own discipleship journey and from years of helping churches build a culture of multiplication. This conversation explores why many men get rooted in faith but never move into mission, how fear and lack of equipping can keep men from leading, and why churches need an intentional pathway to help men become disciple-makers. This episode is for pastors, men's ministry leaders, small group leaders, and anyone who wants to help men grow as followers of Christ and leaders who reproduce other leaders.

Get More at LVwithLOVE.com! “People are social, and there's not a whole lot of other opportunity to just go somewhere and socialize with all of your neighbors.” Lisa Surma Borick said it simply, and she's right. Farmers markets are not just places to buy produce, baked goods, flowers, meats, soaps, coffee, mushrooms, or whatever else ends up in your bag on a Saturday morning. They are places where people see their neighbors. They are places where kids grow up knowing the vendors. They are places where customers do not just say they are going to buy something. They say they are going to see someone. We spoke with Lisa Surma Borick of the Nazareth Economic Development Commission and Nazareth Farmers Market, and Emily Roland, Farmers' Market Manager with the Greater Easton Development Partnership and Easton Farmers' Market, about why farmers markets still feel so important right now. Easton Farmers' Market has roots dating back to 1752 and is known as America's oldest continuously operating open-air market. Nazareth Farmers Market was reestablished in 2010 and has grown into a weekly gathering place in the center of town. But the bigger story is not just history. It is what these markets do every week. Advertisement Emily talked about the work people do not always see: selecting vendors, balancing farmers with prepared food and specialty vendors, handling permits, road closures, parking, layouts, special events, and all the details that make a market feel easy for the people walking through it. Lisa talked about how markets create ownership. People say “my market.” They know the vendors by name. They bring their kids. They make the market part of their weekend rhythm. The conversation also gets into the phrase “buy fresh, buy local” and what it actually means. Supporting a farmers market helps local farms, small businesses, makers, bakers, and families. It keeps money closer to home. It also supports food access programs, including SNAP matching programs that help more people buy fresh food while also helping farmers bring in more income. As Emily said, “It's so much more than buying.” That is why farmers markets matter more than ever. They are not just about food. They are about people, place, access, relationships, and community.

In a fun first for the show, Sarah Bowen takes the host chair to interview Jon Merwarth of Thrive Point Consulting — and Jacob just sits back and listens. Jon spent seven years leading a pregnancy center in Pennsylvania's Lehigh Valley, growing its budget from $450K to $1.7 million before launching Thrive Point to help centers nationwide. Drawing on a corporate sales background, a dozen years as an entrepreneur, and his own abortion experience as a teenager, he brings a rare blend of business rigor and ministry heart to the conversation.Together, Sarah and Jon dig into:How the Dobbs decision created new pressure on centers in blue states — and how Jon's center beat back local ordinances aimed at shutting them downWhy the Pennsylvania Pregnancy Wellness Collaborative gave centers a unified voice with policymakersMaternal health deserts and the "county maternal health intelligence brief" — using real data on transportation, Medicaid, and OB access to bridge the gapsThe business pitfalls that quietly sink centers: weak culture, no succession plan, financial blind spots, and fear of riskWhy "raise more money" is usually the wrong answer — and what to fix firstA string of jaw-dropping stories of provision behind their maternity home (you'll want to hear the $250,000 knock on the door)Practical, candid, and faith-filled — with a few laughs about rural internet along the way.Learn more about Jon's work at thrivepointconsulting.org.Send us Fan MailSupport the show

Greetings, and welcome back to Horror Business. We've got one heck of an episode in store for you guys as we're talking about 1984's Friday The 13th Part IV: The Final Chapter and 1986's Friday The 13th Part VI: Jason Lives First off thank you to the fine folks over at Lehigh Valley Apparel Creations, the premiere screen-printing company of the Lehigh Valley. Chris Reject and his merry band of miscreants are ready to work with you to bring to life your vision of a t-shirt for your business, band, project, or whatever else it is you need represented by a shirt, sweater, pin, or coozy. Head on over to www.xlvacx.com to check them out. And as always thank you to our Patreon subscribers. Your support means the world to us and we are eternally thankful. If you would like to become a Patron, head to patreon.com/cinepunx. Thanks in advance! We briefly talk what we've doing involving horror recently. Liam discusses listening to the Dungeon Crawler Carl series of novels, and be we briefly talk about our favorite audiobooks that add something to the source material. We talk about the film Touch Me, and Liam talks about listening to The Stand on audiobook. Justin talks about the films The Whistle and Bodycam. We talk at length about the film Undertone. Up first is Friday The 13th: The Final Chapter. We open by talking about the appeal of Jason Vorhees as being based on the fear of the other in that until the sixth movie he is essentially a mentally challenged hermit living in the woods. We touch upon the upcoming series. Justin talk abouts the checkered history of Paramount's support of the franchise in that they were “becoming embarrassed” with their association with the series and intended to kill off Jason and have this be the end of the series but the financial response of the films inspired them to continue churning out sequels, and Justin ascertains that these movies are the epitome of the worst part of capitalism. We talk about the various problems with the horror community in general and toxic fandom as a whole. Justin talks about how not minding the first three F13 movies he doesn't really find the character of Jason Vorhees compelling at all.  Justin talks about what he likes about the film: the filmmaker decided to make a child the protagonist in a film that was very clearly not at all made for kids, and not just a protagonist but a smart protagonist. Liam talks about his experience with these films in that part six was the first of the series he saw and how he weirdly misremembers them, including a moment in which a character is murdered in an over the top almost silly manner (the infamous “he's killing me!” scene) as well as the many, many extended chase scenes, and how the mystique of the character is ruined by shots of him running, and Justin adds that either a brisk walk or straight up just showing up is the only acceptable way slasher villains should move. We talk about Tommy Jarvis' method of fucking with Jason, and how it's at least innovative for a horror movie. Up next is Friday The 13th Part VI: Jason Lives. We start by talking about how this is the first film where Jason is overtly supernatural, and that Tommy did actually kill him but now he's resurrected and actually undead. Justin talks about how it's weirdly believable that Tommy would need to see the body before believing Jason was actually dead. He also talks about how unlike part 4 he finds this scene entirely irredeemable. Liam talks about how the movie doesn't hold up to his memory of it. Liam talks about how ridiculous it is that everyone has willingly forgets about Jason. He also talks about how there's a weird sense of humor in the film that isn't present in the prior films, especially in the infamous paintball scene, and how he didn't really remember that as a kid, although he says the “quippiness” was a bit much. We discuss how the ending of chaining Jason to the bottom of the lake sounds cool but there's no real logic to it. First off thank you to Christan for not only suggesting these films but also being a faithful patreon subscriber.

On this episode of the Lehigh Valley with Love Podcast, George Wacker is joined by his daughter Dahlia, a first-year Girls on the Run participant at her elementary school, for a conversation with Girls on the Run Lehigh Valley & Pocono Executive Director Liz Fones, coach Jennifer Leffler, and Laney, a program alumna who now gives back as a junior coach. Yes, there is running. Yes, the season ends with a 5K. But the real work happens during the practices, where trained coaches help participants build confidence, make friends, set goals, talk through emotions, and learn how to handle the kinds of social pressure that can show up early in elementary and middle school. Liz explains that the program gives girls tools at a critical age, especially as they begin thinking more about how they fit in, what others think of them, and how they see themselves. Jennifer, who has coached for many seasons, talks about helping girls navigate friendships, peer pressure, negative self-talk, and the simple but powerful idea of changing “I can't do this” into “I can't do this yet.” Laney shares how her own experience with Girls on the Run helped her meet new people, build a love of running, and eventually return to the program as a junior coach. She now runs cross-country and track in high school, and talks about how running gives her a way to deal with stress and reset when life feels overwhelming. Dahlia also shares what she has enjoyed as a first-year participant, including making new friends and getting to be part of something that gives girls a chance to try running in a supportive way. The episode also looks ahead to the Girls on the Run 5K Celebration at DeSales University on Sunday, May 17. The event brings together girls, coaches, families, running buddies, mascots, music, and plenty of cheering as participants complete the season together. Girls on the Run Lehigh Valley & Pocono serves communities across the region and is open to girls of all abilities. The organization also emphasizes that financial need should not stop a girl from participating, with scholarships and support available for families.

This week on the TABLE TALK interview podcast, Jeff sat down with Mike Raymond from Fox Sports Radio of the Lehigh Valley for a fun conversation about the upcoming NFL Draft and a bunch of NFL storylines we're following. Which team “won” the Dexter Lawrence trade: the Giants or Bengals? What might the Jets do at No. 2 overall to turn things around for their team? How truly talented is the quarterback talent in this draft? How the 49'ers will approach this draft in terms of team building for the future.

She earned her clinical doctorate from Salus University (Drexel University) with a specialization in vision remediation. An active scholar and adjunct faculty at Drexel, Dr. Reiser bridges the gap between neurological rehabilitation, vision therapy, concussion recovery, ADHD care, and nervous system regulation. She is the co-owner of NeurOT Consulting and co-author of 100 Visually Loaded Activities and Occupations.In this episode, Dr. Alicia Reiser explains the critical but often overlooked connection between vision and the brain following a concussion. She discusses how visual inefficiencies (such as convergence insufficiency, double vision, and blurry vision) can mimic or worsen ADHD symptoms, hinder recovery, and cause chronic symptoms like headaches and dizziness. Dr. Reiser highlights the unique role of Occupational Therapy in vision remediation, the importance of interdisciplinary care with neuro-optometrists, and her work to establish a national Community of Practice within AOTA to standardize vision rehabilitation. She also provides actionable advice for patients and families navigating concussion recovery.Resources Mentioned by Dr. ReiserFind a Neuro-Optometrist: College of Optometrists in Vision Development (COVD) – www.covd.org (Look for the "board certified in vision therapy" box)Book (Co-authored by Dr. Reiser): 100 Visually Loaded Activities and Occupations (Available for pre-order via NeurOT Consulting: https://neurotconsulting.com/)Textbook Mentioned: Understanding and Managing Vision Deficits: A Guide for Occupational Therapists by Dr. Mitchell Scheiman, ODhttps://www.routledge.com/Understanding-and-Managing-Vision-Deficits-A-Guide-for-Occupational-Therapists/Scheiman/p/book/9781032882871Continuing Education Course: Vis Con (through  CiaoSeminars) – https://www.ciaoeminarss.com AOTA Community of Practice (CoP) for Vision Rehabilitation:Enrollment Survey Link: https://forms.aota.org/forms/vision_cop_enrollment_survey_copyOriginal Discussion Board Request: https://communot.aota.org/discussion/vision-remediation-community-of-practice-interestWebsites & Social MediaDr. Reiser's Practice: www.ariseaboveoccupationaltherapyservices.comInstagram: @ariseaboveotFacebook: @ariseaboveotConsulting & Book (with Megan Schneider): www.neurotconsulting.comConnect with Bethany:Website: https://theconcussioncoach.com/Free Guide: "5 Best Ways to Support Your Loved One Dealing with a Concussion" on the websiteFree Coaching Consultation: https://theconcussioncoach.com/free-consultation

In this episode of The Compassionate Accountability Podcast®, Dr. Nate Regier sits down with Dr. Samantha Shaak, Executive Director of the Leonard Parker Pool Institute for Health and Vice President of Community Health at Lehigh Valley Health Network, to explore what it really takes to develop leaders who can collaborate across sectors, navigate complexity, and create lasting impact in their communities.   Addressing challenges like housing, education, homelessness, addiction, and mental health requires more than passion and good intentions. It requires leaders who can build trust, communicate across differences, and stay connected when the work gets hard. Samantha shares how the Pool Fellowship for Health in Pennsylvania's Lehigh Valley is equipping nonprofit, government, and community leaders with the self-awareness, communication skills, and conflict capacity needed to do exactly that.    In this episode you'll learn:  Why cross-sector leadership is essential for solving complex social issues  How trust is built, weakened, and restored in collaborative work The role of self-awareness in leadership development Where miscommunication and drama show up in partnerships Why practical communication tools matter more than theory alone What it takes to build a locally grown leadership program that lasts   Rapid fire questions include: What is one truth about conflict? What is one thing leaders forget about communication? What is the most common "aha" you see from people in your program? What is the most important thing you've learned about yourself along this journey?   If you're building a leadership program, investing in developing leaders, or trying to solve complex problems that no one organization can address alone, this episode offers a powerful example of what becomes possible when compassion and accountability work together. Listen, reflect, and learn what's possible when conflict becomes a catalyst instead of collateral damage.

Get More at LVwithLOVE.com! On this episode of the Lehigh Valley with Love Podcast, we talk with Gráinne Hunt and Jules Stewart ahead of their April 17 show at Godfrey Daniels in Bethlehem. Gráinne, an Irish singer-songwriter, talks about how she describes her music as “nu-folk” and explains why that label fits. The conversation gets into the difference between traditional assumptions people sometimes make about Irish music and the original songwriting work she and other contemporary artists are doing. Jules talks about what she brings to the live show as a drummer, percussionist, and harmony singer, and how she approaches supporting songs that are deeply personal without getting in the way of them. One of the more interesting parts of the conversation is hearing how much thought goes into leaving space in a performance, not just adding to it. We also talk about Gráinne's songwriting process, including why lyrics usually come first for her and how she often builds songs outward from the chorus. From there, the conversation turns to “Magnets,” how the song came together, and how certain images or ideas can sit with a songwriter for years before becoming part of a finished piece.

The Midday Team reacts to the news that Zack Wheeler threw a live bullpen session and will be throwing in a MiLB game in Lehigh Valley this weekend.

            Greetings, and welcome back to Horror Business. We've got one heck of an episode in store for you guys, as we're talking about 1971's Blood From The Mummy's Tomb and 1981's Dawn Of The Mummy.              First off, thank you to the fine folks over at Lehigh Valley Apparel Creations, the premiere screen-printing company of the Lehigh Valley. Chris Reject and his merry band of miscreants are ready to work with you to bring to life your vision of a t-shirt for your business, band, project, or whatever else it is you need represented by a shirt, sweater, pin, or koozie. Head on over to www.xlvacx.com to check them out. And as always thank you to our Patreon subscribers. Your support means the world to us and we are eternally thankful. If you would like to become a Patron, head to patreon.com/cinepunx. Thanks in advance!             We briefly talk what we've doing involving horror recently. Liam talks about watching the film The Last Sacrifice on Shudder, and Liam and Justin talk about Night Patrol. Liam talks about starting the series of books The Locked Tomb, and Justin talks about seeing the films We Bury The Dead and Primate.             Up first is Blood From The Mummy's Tomb. We talk about how it has a disappointingly low number of mummies, how it's a woefully forgettable film and how it's very boring for a film of that era. Justin talks about how the film seems to drop several hints at things to come later but never gives any payoff. We discuss the phenomenon of fetishization of the Middle East and the othering of Egyptian culture, and how for a period Egypt was, to Britain, the ultimate “other.”             Up next is Dawn Of The Mummy. We open by talking about how the movie feels very Italian despite being an American production, and how the movie feels like a zombie movie with mummies instead of zombies. We discuss how the film is a perfect encapsulation of how imperialism and colonialism desecrate and trivialize ancient Egyptian culture. Liam talks about how despite the film starting out slow, it becomes a full-blown massacre involving dozens of mummies. We make it a point to describe the film as “fun” instead of “actually good” and talk about how the film has lots of “requisite ’80s checked boxes.”             As always, thank you for listening and to everyone and anyone who donated on Patreon, checked this episode out, or shared a tweet/shared a post on FB/gave us love by recommending us to someone. We love you forever for listening and donating.

We sat down with Moravian Academy Head of School Adrienne Finley Odell to talk about what the partnership means, why systems thinking matters for today's students, and how sustainability education can connect directly to real-world leadership. The conversation also touches on Moravian Academy's long history, its three-campus presence in Bethlehem and Allentown, and how that legacy continues to evolve. This spring, Moravian Academy's first student cohort will begin preparing for the program before heading to Switzerland in mid-June for the Villars Institute leadership symposium.

We're proud to share our 300th podcast episode. Nearly six years in, we're grateful for every listener and guest who has made this podcast a meaningful part of the turf community. To mark the occasion, this milestone episode brings together three hosts and three special guests, each offering a unique story from across the game.First, our friend John Reilly, the Turf Monkey at Longboat Key Resort in Sarasota, Florida, introduces us to “Dirty Old Tom,” whom we met at the GCSAA Conference in Orlando. In a lively and entertaining segment, we revisit the legacy of Tom Morris, widely recognized as the grandfather of golf course greenkeeping. Beyond his four Open Championships, Morris was a pioneer who helped establish The Open, built clubs and golf balls, designed courses, introduced sand topdressing, and was the first to groom bunkers for play. It's a fun and fitting nod to the roots of our profession.Next, Kevin sits down with Tom Walker to unpack the remarkable 2018 renovation of the Coeur d'Alene Resort's floating green. To prevent the iconic green from sinking, the team reduced its weight from 5.5 million to 4.5 million pounds. The project required moving the green three miles across the lake, removing hundreds of cubic yards of soil, adding foam for buoyancy, restoring the original design, updating irrigation, and re-sodding before winter. Complex, costly, and carefully executed, the renovation preserved one of golf's most recognizable features.Finally, Jack interviews John Chassard with a preview of the inaugural Jefferson Lehigh Valley Classic at Lehigh Country Club, featuring a field of 78 PGA TOUR Champions players. They discuss course conditions heading into September, tournament preparations, hospitality build-out, and the rebuild of the 11th green using Penn Poa to restore playability and performance. Proceeds from the event will benefit local charities throughout Northeastern Pennsylvania and the greater Philadelphia and Lehigh Valley regions, including Valley Youth House and the Eagles Autism Foundation.Three hosts. Three guests. One milestone episode celebrating the past, present, and future of turf and golf.Visit EarthWorks at: https://www.earthworksturf.com Podcasts: https://www.earthworksturf.com/earthworks-podcasts/ 2 Minute Turf Talks: https://www.earthworksturf.com/2-minute-turf-talks/

Get More at LVwithLOVE.com! Become a partner or contact us On this special series of the Lehigh Valley with Love Podcast, we sat down with candidates running for U.S. House in Pennsylvania's 7th Congressional District ahead of the May 19, 2026 primary. To keep this fair and useful, every candidate was asked the same core questions. Mark Pinsley is not included because he dropped out. We also reached out multiple times to Congressman Ryan McKenzie's office and did not receive a response. In this episode, we speak with Ryan Crosswell. Crosswell describes his background in public service, including serving in the Marine Corps after graduating from Duke Law School, and later working as a federal prosecutor. He also discusses why he decided to run for Congress now. Campaign: https://ryancrosswell.com/ Day to day financial stressCrosswell says people are feeling higher costs across the board, and he mentions grocery costs rising in Pennsylvania. He says the biggest day to day stress he hears most often is healthcare costs, and he argues that cuts to Medicare and ACA subsidies destabilize care providers and make the system worse for everyone, including people who already have insurance. He says he is talking to residents who are losing insurance or are uninsured. Healthcare and ACA premium tax creditsCrosswell says he supports extending the ACA premium tax credits for as long as needed to keep premiums down. He adds that long term he wants a public healthcare option, described as a government regulated healthcare option, and argues that broader access would also drive down costs for people who keep private plans. Immigration enforcement, legal pathways, and work authorizationCrosswell says he served as a federal prosecutor in San Diego and prosecuted immigration related offenses, including drug smuggling, illegal entry, and human smuggling. He says he supports a strong border, and also says he prosecuted law enforcement officers who broke the law, including a Border Patrol agent. He then focuses on internal enforcement by ICE, calling it disturbing and saying it violates Fourth Amendment rights through actions like entering homes without search warrants and detaining people without adequate cause. He argues Congress should rein ICE in, including by using funding leverage, and he supports requiring federal agents to remove masks and display identification. He also calls for accountability when due process is bypassed. He says his law firm is filing lawsuits on behalf of people he says were detained illegally by ICE. Warehouses and data centersCrosswell starts with data centers and says a major concern is energy use and the risk of higher energy prices. He says data centers should provide their own energy so local residents are not left paying more. He also raises concerns about environmental impact and water consumption, and says builders should be required to power facilities with renewable energy sources. He also says there should be requirements tied to water, including investment in desalination. He says he is uncomfortable with how quickly data centers are being rushed into the area without deeper cost benefit analysis and without clearer answers on environmental impact, energy impact, and job creation. He also connects warehouse growth to the loss of green space and says projects should be evaluated case by case based on what the community gets in return. HomelessnessCrosswell highlights local nonprofit work and then focuses on federal steps. He says he supports passing the ROAD to Housing Act, which he describes as bipartisan and currently stuck in Congress, and says it would provide funding for more affordable housing and cut red tape so building can move faster. He also supports grants or low interest loans to developers who build affordable housing in areas with abandoned buildings and businesses, as long as it can be done safely, and he frames that as a way to add housing while protecting green space. He also calls for reducing large institutional home buying by Wall Street buyers, including cutting tax incentives that he says encourage that behavior and drive up housing costs. Third place in the Lehigh ValleyCrosswell says his third place is Nowhere Coffee near where he lives. He says it is often where he meets with people in the community to talk about local issues, and he also describes it as a place that helps him reset and reconnect with routines he had before the campaign.

Become a partner or contact us On this special series of the Lehigh Valley with Love Podcast, we sat down with candidates running for U.S. House in Pennsylvania's 7th Congressional District ahead of the May 19, 2026 primary. To keep this fair and useful, every candidate was asked the same core questions. Mark Pinsley is not included because he dropped out. We also reached out multiple times to Congressman Ryan McKenzie's office and did not receive a response. In this episode, we speak with Lamont McClure, who says he recently completed his second term as Northampton County Executive and announced his run for Congress last February. He describes his candidacy as a response to what he calls growing national chaos, and he ties his platform to affordability, healthcare, and public safety. Campaign: https://mcclureforpa.com/ Day to day financial stressMcClure says the biggest day to day financial stress he hears about is housing affordability. He argues that tariffs are limiting the ability of home builders to build homes, which limits supply and contributes to rising costs and homelessness. He says national solutions should include incentivizing affordable housing builders so more housing gets built at every level of the market. He also argues that rolling back tariffs would help control affordability, saying tariffs have raised prices, raised taxes people pay, and are killing jobs. Healthcare and ACA premium tax creditsMcClure says he supports extending Affordable Care Act benefits, especially the premium tax credits, and says he supports making them permanent. He criticizes Congressman Ryan McKenzie's actions around the tax credits, arguing McKenzie had opportunities to leverage his vote to secure an extension but did not. He frames his own approach as using his vote to make sure constituents are taken care of, and he links the ACA tax credits to the stability of small businesses and self employed people in the district. Immigration enforcement, legal pathways, and work authorizationMcClure says the country needs secure borders and says violent criminals who are in the country without documentation should be deported. He then focuses on what he describes as his record pushing back on ICE actions in Northampton County. He describes an incident where ICE arrested someone in a courthouse hallway, and says he researched the law and issued an executive order preventing ICE from making arrests in his courthouse. He says that policy remains in place under his successor. He also emphasizes that he has taken on MAGA aligned opponents electorally, and frames that as proof he can win in a politically mixed county. Warehouses and data centersAsked about warehouses and data centers and what makes a project worth it for the region, McClure points to his record combating warehouse proliferation in Northampton County. He cites land preservation work, including preserving 20,000 acres of farmland and 3,800 acres of open space, creating four new county parks, and preserving environmentally sensitive land that contains rare species. He also says he fought warehouse proliferation “to the tune of over twenty five million dollars” in Northampton County. He frames his approach as protecting a green future for the district. HomelessnessMcClure calls homelessness a multifactorial problem and says it is not the same for everybody, so solutions vary. He says Northampton and Lehigh counties put millions of dollars a year into addressing homelessness and says he has been in that fight for years, including a focus on veteran homelessness. He also describes using money won from opioid manufacturers for efforts to fight the opioid crisis, including drug and alcohol treatment, and he references a suicide prevention task force that focused on lowering suicide rates, especially among veterans. He says he would work to ensure federal law and policy help combat homelessness, addiction, and support veterans. Third place in the Lehigh ValleyMcClure says his third place is Minsi Lake, describing it as a serene place that helps him decompress. He also mentions other places he enjoys, including Leaser Lake Park near his home, the Lehigh Valley Zoo, and going to his native Carbon County in the fall.

Become a partner or contact us On this special series of the Lehigh Valley with Love Podcast, we sat down with candidates running for U.S. House in Pennsylvania's 7th Congressional District ahead of the May 19, 2026 primary. To keep this fair and useful, every candidate was asked the same core questions. Mark Pinsley is not included because he dropped out. We also reached out multiple times to Congressman Ryan McKenzie's office and did not receive a response. In this episode, we speak with Bob Brooks, a career firefighter with the City of Bethlehem and a union leader. Brooks talks about affordability in the Lehigh Valley, what federal policy can do to expand housing supply, and how he thinks about public safety, healthcare, and local development. Campaign: https://brooksforcongress.com/ Day to day financial stressBrooks says the biggest day to day financial stresses he hears about are healthcare and housing, and he focuses first on housing. He argues the region needs to build a lot more housing quickly and says that requires cutting red tape, including permitting and zoning reforms. He supports first time home buyer help and talks about expanding programs similar to the HELPERS Act style loan concept. He also argues for cracking down on bulk home buying by private equity and corporate purchasers that he says distort the housing market. Healthcare and ACA premium tax creditsBrooks says he supports extending the ACA premium tax credits and argues they should not be removed without a replacement plan. He warns that cutting help people rely on will raise costs, and he links paying for coverage support to tax policy changes. He argues for a minimum tax on billionaires and large corporations, saying that would fund major priorities. He also says making programs permanent will require negotiation and compromise, and he frames himself as a negotiator from his labor leadership experience. Immigration enforcement, legal pathways, and work authorizationBrooks frames the issue through public safety and argues enforcement efforts should focus on serious criminals, not everyday people. He says the purpose of ICE should be to target drug dealers and people committing violent crimes, and he argues the agency should be refocused. He also calls for streamlining the pathway to citizenship and supports adding more immigration judges to speed up the process, criticizing long wait times. Warehouses and data centersBrooks says he will side with workers, and evaluates projects based on whether they bring real jobs and benefits. He says he is concerned about data centers in particular because of infrastructure impacts, especially strain on the electric grid. He says federal involvement is limited compared to local government, but argues there is room for federal regulation related to electricity markets and for slowing or tightening approvals. He also argues data centers should be required to generate their own power rather than pulling heavily from the existing grid. HomelessnessBrooks argues federal action should expand housing options and help people afford them. He supports expanding Housing Choice Vouchers, but says vouchers are capped and that cap is linked to the lack of available housing. He argues the solution requires building more housing and increasing affordable and entry level housing. He also emphasizes mental health funding, saying mental health needs are a major factor in homelessness and that resources have not matched the scale of need. Third place in the Lehigh ValleyBrooks says his third place is a baseball field behind the Nazareth Intermediate School, where he coaches varsity baseball for Nazareth High School. He describes it as a place where he can put his phone away and focus on helping young people grow. Sign up for our Newsletter!  Thank you to our Partners!

To keep this fair and useful, every candidate was asked the same core questions. We also reached out multiple times to Congressman Ryan McKenzie's office and did not receive a response. In this episode, we speak with Carol Obando-Derstine, who shares why she is running and what she is hearing from residents across PA-07. Campaign: https://www.carolforpa.com/ Day to day financial stressObando-Derstine says people are struggling to make ends meet and pay for the essentials of life, specifically naming housing, healthcare, groceries, utilities, and childcare. She cites the United Way ALICE report and says it shows 41 percent of district families are struggling to cover the essentials, which she describes as roughly 124,000 households. Healthcare and ACA premium tax creditsObando-Derstine supports extending the ACA premium tax credits. She frames healthcare as personal, sharing stories of people she knew who could not afford care and how costs can financially devastate families. She argues that access to care helps families and also strengthens the economy because prevention and early treatment keep people healthier and working. In this conversation, she focuses on why the subsidies matter and does not detail a specific funding mechanism. Immigration enforcement, legal pathways, and work authorizationObando-Derstine says immigration policy is personal to her as an immigrant who came to the United States at age three with parents who fled violence in Colombia. She says the system needs fixing in a way that is legal, effective, and humane. She criticizes what she describes as cruelty, racial profiling, and unaccountable enforcement, and says fear is widespread in immigrant communities, including among documented Latinos. She also says she supports secure borders, but argues the current approach creates chaos and does not make communities safer. She calls for more immigration judges and support staff, modernizing immigration courts, speeding up asylum processing, and opening up DACA applications so people are not kept in limbo. Warehouses and data centersObando-Derstine notes that local governments make many of the key decisions, and she emphasizes a robust local stakeholder process so residents have meaningful input. Drawing on her background as an energy engineer, she describes work connecting projects to the electric grid, including warehouses. She argues against a top down approach that overrides state and local authority and says local voices should guide what gets built and how communities are impacted, especially when projects use significant resources and create limited jobs. HomelessnessObando-Derstine says she has direct experience with this issue through service on the Homeless Veterans Task Force for Lehigh County, volunteer work with North Penn Legal Services, and her work advocating for prevention programs to keep families off the streets. She calls for federal action that prevents unjust evictions and proposes establishing a federal Office of Tenant Rights so people understand their rights and landlords are accountable. She also points to the role of legal aid and says cuts to legal aid programs affect the ability to prevent evictions. She supports expanding and strengthening incentives for affordable housing, including the Low Income Housing Tax Credit, and suggests reform to reduce bureaucracy and improve consistency in how states administer that federal credit. She also names local organizations doing the work, including New Bethany and the United Way. Third place in the Lehigh ValleyObando-Derstine says her third place is her church community, specifically the Spanish service at the Cathedral Church of the Nativity in Bethlehem, which she attends with her parents. She describes it as a gathering place with a strong community focus and notes that it also hosts local meetings such as housing related committees.

Written, directed by, and starring Roebuck, the film tells the story of a reluctant man pulled into coaching an all-boys Catholic football team and finding redemption along the way. For Lehigh Valley audiences, this one hits especially close to home. Scenes were filmed at Bethlehem Catholic High School, the Mary Immaculate Seminary in Northampton, and at the Bethlehem Area School District stadium, where game sequences were shot over eight nights, sometimes as late as 2 and 3 a.m. Real Bethlehem Catholic players, Liberty and Freedom band members, and local residents filled the stands. This weekend, you can see The Hail Mary at SteelStacks, The Roxy Theatre, and other regional theaters. There is also a special event at Hotel Bethlehem following a screening, including dinner and a behind-the-scenes conversation with Roebuck and the team. If you are from the Lehigh Valley, you will recognize faces, locations, and that unmistakable local energy on screen.

Both the House and the Senate are out of town this week, but what they have heard from constituents at home will matter when they return on Monday. One key swing vote belongs to freshman Republican Rep. Ryan Mackenzie. He represents Pennsylvania's 7th Congressional District, including the Lehigh Valley and the city of Allentown. Mackenzie joined Lisa Desjardins to discuss more. PBS News is supported by - https://www.pbs.org/newshour/about/funders. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy

John Casmon interviews Matthew Pezon, who shares his journey from being told he was the “worst employee” in his engineering job to building a vertically integrated multifamily portfolio in Pennsylvania. Matthew explains how early mentorship, relentless deal touring, and making dozens of offers helped him build confidence and land his first deals through distressed single-family and small multifamily properties. The conversation digs into Matthew's shift away from long-term buy-and-hold thinking toward what he calls the “velocity of capital,” recognizing when equity becomes trapped and redeploying it into larger value-add assets. After becoming a father of twins, he realized brute-force solo investing no longer scaled, pushing him to trade up into 20–40 unit properties and build leverage through people, systems, and capital. Matthew also breaks down how long-term relationships with agents and investors unlock off-market deals, why certainty of closing often matters more than top-dollar pricing, and how maintaining a reputation for not retrading sellers has fueled his growth. He closes by sharing how in-house property management, acquisitions staff, and clean financial reporting have helped him scale to hundreds of units while reclaiming time with his family.
