The Tragically Hip On Shuffle - Live Stream: Country DayOne random shuffle lands on the last song on "We Are the Same," and the panel ends up arguing about Bob Rock, Canada Day, and whether Gord wrote a love letter to his producer.Episode Summary On this week's The Tragically Hip On Shuffle live stream, jD and the panel pull 'Country Day', the closing track from 2009's "We Are the Same," and dig into one of the most debated records in the catalogue. The conversation circles the Bob Rock production question first: the smooth backing vocals, the strings, the sense that the band got pushed to the edges of their own album. From there it opens up into three competing readings of the song itself. One hears a straight-up love story. One builds a detailed Indigenous and Canada Day interpretation, rooted in life beside the Alderville First Nation. One reads the whole thing as a coded note from Gord Downie to Bob Rock, threaded through to 'Something More' on "Lustre Parfait." Along the way the group gets into Gord's live vocal in the aired Artpark performance, the band's later run through "Now for Plan A" and "Man Machine Poem," and why a record some fans skip rewards the people who stay. It is a fan-first look at Tragically Hip song meanings, the kind of close listening this community does best. The episode closes with poll results, a spin for next week, and the full version of 'Last of the Unplugged Gems' on the way out.GuestsMike from Haslett, Michigan. A restaurant owner who found The Tragically Hip through a 1996 newspaper clipping his dad mailed him, started at "Day for Night," and has been to 20-plus shows. He hears 'Country Day' as a love song tied to meeting his wife.Jeff from Belleville, Ontario. Lives right beside the Alderville First Nation, which anchors his reading of the song's Indigenous and Canada Day threads. This is his second pass at a track from "We Are the Same" on the show.Greg from Tacoma, Washington. The panel's resident music guy and the one who sourced the live version aired on the episode. Calls "We Are the Same" his least favourite Hip record, then makes the case for why this song still kicks.Resources, Links, and References'Country Day' live, sourced by Greg from Tacoma: Artpark, Lewiston, New York, June 4, 2009. [add archive or source link]"Battle of the Nudes," Gord Downie solo record referenced on its anniversary. [add link]"Lustre Parfait," the Bob Rock and Gord Downie record, and the track 'Something More'. [add link]The band documentary referenced during the production discussion. [confirm title, add link]The MuchMusic and Strombo interview era discussed by Mike. [add link if available]The Tragically Hip Handbook, jD's lyric word-search tool. [confirm product name, add link]Source credit standards: Hipbase, HipMuseum, setlist.fm, The Tragically Hip Archive, This Is Our Life. [add the specific links used for this episode's facts]Calls to ActionWant a seat at the table?

For one 2025 national champion LSU baseball team, last weekend’s games ended any remote chances that they will qualify for the upcoming playoffs with a chance to repeat. For the other 2025 national champion LSU baseball team located in the northwest corner of Louisiana, their chance for a title repeat is very much alive and well today. This weekend also featured the quiet return of one of the PGA Tour’s most popular golfers as he won for the first time in eight years.  Plus, the NBA’s Indiana Pacers attempt to tank and receive a top draft pick backfired in a big way on Sunday. The LSU Tigers baseball team went 0-3 at Georgia – won’t defend title Omaha will not be the final destination for this year’s 2026 LSU baseball team in June.  The 2025 national champions just dropped three straight games in Athens, Georgia over the weekend. The Georgia Bulldogs downed the Tigers 11-8, 13-8, and (yikes) 12-1 after the infamous 10-run rule was invoked in Sunday’s finale.  That weekend sweep also gave the Dawgs the 2026 SEC regular season title. UGA is now 41-11 overall and a very impressive 21-6 in the SEC. LSU’s depleted pitching staff (giving up 5 ½ runs every nine innings) served up an assortment of tasty treats to Georgia’s eager batters all weekend.  The Tigers fell to 29-24 overall and a woeful 9-18 in the SEC. Those 18 SEC losses are the most ever for an LSU baseball team.  It’s hard to believe Coach Jay Johnson’s baseball team has fallen this far after winning the national championship in 2025. LSU’s regular season mercifully ends at home this weekend in Baton Rouge as the Florida Gators (34-18 and 15-12 in the SEC) visit Alex Box Stadium.  LSU remains in 14th place in the 16-team SEC.  Only South Carolina (7-20 in the league) and Missouri (6-21) have worse records. In Shreveport, the defending NAIA baseball champion LSU-S Pilots are peaking at the right time Last year’s LSU-Shreveport baseball team set an all-time college baseball record by becoming the first team to win every single game they played.  The 59-0 Perfect Pilots of 2025 have lost 12 times during 2026.  However, they also have 41 wins, too. LSU-S will host four other top regional teams in the NAIA opening round playoff series beginning today (Monday, May 11) at Pilot Field in Shreveport.  LSU-S is a nifty 31-4 at home this year.  The odds favor the Pilots advancing into the second round of the NAIA playoffs next week. Unlike their big brothers down in Baton Rouge, LSU-Shreveport’s pitching has been exceptional again in 2026.  The Pilots’ team earned run average is just 3.35.  Pitching ace Brock Lucas has posted a 10-2 record and allowed just 1.83 runs per nine innings. Best of luck to the LSU-S Pilots as they try to bring home a second consecutive national baseball title to Shreveport!  *Update – LSU-Shreveport won two games but also lost twice to Mid-America Christian University (Oklahoma City).  Mid-America Christian (42-13) won the Shreveport Regional and advanced to play in the NAIA World Series in Lewiston, Idaho on Friday, May 22.  They will face 47-9 Doane University of Crete, Nebraska.  Louisiana Softball – ULM women robbed of an NCAA playoff spot while LSU received the #16 overall seed Fans of the ULM Warhawks sports teams haven’t had a lot to crow about in recent years.  The women’s softball team, though, has been a recent exception. The Warhawks won their first-ever Sun Belt regular season softball title recently after posting a 19-5 league record. Last weekend’s Sun Belt Conference tournament #1 seed ULM won its opening game against UL-Lafayette.  The Warhawks then dropped a 3-1 decision in the semifinal round to #5 seed and eventual tournament winner South Alabama.  UL-Monroe finished their season with a 38-20 record. Sunday night’s NCAA 64-team women’s softball selection show placed Sun Belt tournament champion South Alabama into the field as expected.  However, the Sun Belt also received two additional spots in the NCAA tournament as well. Both Marshall University (regular season #2 in the conference) and Texas State (regular season #3) received an NCAA invitation.  Marshall finished with a 37-17 record.  Texas State went 38-20. Why didn’t the Sun Belt’s regular season champion ULM receive one of those two NCAA tournament spots? The Warhawks were the hottest team in the conference over the last two months having won 19 of their final 22 games. Yes, all three at-large Sun Belt teams (ULM, Marshall, and Texas State) had very similar records.  Shame on the NCAA for leaving ULM’s regular season champions out of this year’s post-season tournament. In Baton Rouge, the LSU Tigers somehow wrangled the #16 overall seed and will host a four-team regional event this weekend at Tiger Park.  Coach Beth Torino’s team is 37-17 overall and has won nine of its last 12 games.  LSU just qualified for the softball postseason tournament for an incredible 20 years in a row. The Women’s College World Series will be held at Devon Park in Oklahoma City from May 28 through June 4. Golf – 45-year old Brandt Snedeker won for the first time in nearly eight years! The sport of golf can be played well into your senior years.  However, it is rare to see very many winners on the men’s or women’s professional golf tours after they reach their mid-40’s. Hall-of-Famer Sam Snead still holds the men’s professional record after winning the Greater Greensboro Open in 1965 at the age of 52. Two-time Ryder Cup golfer Brandt Snedeker had already been selected to become the captain of this fall’s President Cup team.  The honor generally goes to a popular PGA professional golfer whose playing career has already peaked.  Being the team captain usually means spending a lot of time handling team selections, tournament details, the media, and such.   Most team captains don’t have a lot of time for their own golf game. The 45-year old Brandt Snedeker had lost his PGA Tour playing card a few years ago after several seasons filled with injuries and poor results on the golf course.  Snedeker was having to rely on sponsor exemptions in order to be added into several events over the past few seasons. The likable Brandt Snedeker from Tennessee wanted to prove to himself and his family that his golf game was still good enough to win on tour again. His 18-under par total at Sunday’s Myrtle Beach Classic PGA Tour stop was good enough to secure a one-stroke victory over a 36-year old winless golfer.  Mark “Hard Luck” Hubbard bogeyed the 18th hole to finish in second place. With his win, Brandt Snedeker earned a two-year exemption on the PGA Tour and a place in this weekend’s PGA Championship outside of Philadelphia. Nicely done and welcome back, Sneds! Indiana Pacers flunked the NBA Draft ping-pong ball lottery on Sunday Do you remember which team the Oklahoma City Thunder beat in the NBA Finals less than a year ago? Me, either. Last year’s #4 East seed Indiana Pacers surprised many with a late-season charge to win the NBA’s Eastern Conference title in 2025.  Indiana then fought gamely in the NBA Finals against #1 overall seed Oklahoma City before losing in Game #7 at OKC. This year’s Indiana Pacers suffered a series of injuries during the first half of the NBA season.  The team went on to establish franchise records for the longest losing streaks in Pacers’ history during the second half of the season. You could say that the Indiana Pacers were “tanking” on purpose in hopes to receive one of the top NBA draft picks in June.  The league “rewards” bad teams by giving them the highest odds of receiving a top draft pick. Indiana lost with vigor.  This team lost and lost and lost. The Pacers dropped 13 games in a row from mid-December into January. They topped their own futility mark with a 16-game losing streak from February into March. In what would turn out to be a colossal mistake, the Pacers also made a multi-player trade with the Los Angeles Clippers in February during a losing streak. As a part of the deal, Indiana’s #1 draft pick for next season would be sent to the Clippers only if Indiana should be assigned a draft selection worse than #4 overall. Not to worry, right? Indiana finished with a franchise worst 19-63 record.  It firmly placed the Indiana Pacers as one of the top three worst teams in the NBA this year. The NBA’s draft lottery rules assign an equal 14% chance of getting the top draft pick to the three biggest losers.  This season, those teams were the Washington Wizards, Indiana Pacers, and Brooklyn Nets. The next best odds (11 ½ %) were assigned to the Utah Jazz and Sacramento Kings. Memphis (at 9%) was sixth. The other eight non-playoff teams received a descending percentage chance with #14 Charlotte having a minuscule ½% chance of receiving the #1 draft pick in June. What could possibly go wrong for Indiana? Plenty. After the Washington Wizards’ ping-pong ball drawing gave them the #1 overall draft pick in June, Indiana was hoping to grab that #2 spot. Alas, the second-worst team in the NBA this year watched in horror as their ping-pong ball drawing fortunes went horribly wrong.  The Pacers didn’t hear their name called until the #5 draft position. As a result, Sunday’s ping-pong ball fiasco also handed Indiana’s 2026 first round pick over to the Los Angeles Clippers as part of this February’s trade. Indiana won’t receive a first round selection in this June’s NBA draft.  Instead, the Pacers will receive Los Angeles’ first round pick in the year 2031. Indiana Pacers’ President of Team Operations Kevin Pritchard later apologized to the team’s basketball fans.  He said, “I’m really sorry to all our fans. I own taking this risk.” He sure does! This also spotlights the NBA’s convoluted system of incentivizing lousy basketball teams to “out-lose” each other during the second half of the season. The worst teams (generally) receive one of the top three or four draft picks. In this case, the Indiana Pacers (historically a very competitive franchise) got burned trying to tank during the second half of the NBA season. The team intentionally (but would never admit) dropped a record number of games this season convinced that they would be a statistical shoo-in to receive a top three draft choice in June. NBA Commissioner Adam Silver recently commented that the league’s draft lottery system is slated to receive an overhaul in 2027 to prevent teams from “tanking”. He said, “You should assume for next season that your only incentive is to win games.” Right, Commish! I’m not from Missouri, but you’ll need to show me before I believe that the NBA has an effective plan to end the league’s tanking issues!

This Day in Maine for Tuesday, April 7, 2026.

Padma Mudra ~ Mrs. Jesus (8 July 2023 - Lewiston, NY) Suzanne (12 November 2009 - Melbourne, AUS)

Recently on the show, we've discussed the paroling of Chad Campbell, a Wayne County man who killed a 15-year-old classmate of his and a 17-month-old child said classmate was babysitting in 1990. He was paroled to Erie County. Now, on the heels of that, a Lewiston man, 78-year-old Iver Phallen has been released from state prison on parole after he pleaded guilty to charges related to sexually abusing and torturing women inside his condo. Why are these people getting paroled? We discuss this with former Erie County District Attorney John Flynn.

Today, we set out to answer two questions: what is going on with New York State's justice system, and their push for total electrification? Many people were scratching their heads after a double murderer was paroled to Erie County recently, Well, another violent criminal, 78-year-old Iver Phallen of Lewiston, who to charges related to sexually abusing and torturing women, was recently released from state prison, what's up with that? Former Erie County District Attorney John Flynn joins us to speak on this. Also, an amendment proposed by State Senator George Borrello that would have fully repealed New York State's electric school bus mandate was voted down in the State Senate Monday, but recently, we've been getting mixed signals from the state on electrification. For more insight on where we stand on electrification, we're joined by Phil Nanula of Essex Homes and the aforementioned Borrello.

Greg McReynolds from Idaho Rivers United | The Lower Snake We Lost This podcast is the audio version of the Gear Garage Live Show, where we answer submitted questions and talk all things whitewater. In this episode, Zach sits down with Greg McReynolds, the Executive Director of Idaho Rivers United (IRU), to discuss the future of the Lower Snake River and the hidden rapids currently buried under its reservoirs. Episode Summary The conversation begins with the "permit apocalypse," as Greg and Zach share the common disappointment of being denied for major river lotteries like the Gates of Lodore. This frustration leads naturally into a discussion about unpermitted river opportunities and the massive potential of the Lower Snake River. Greg explains that IRU is heavily invested in the removal of the lower four Snake River dams to recover salmon populations in Idaho, which remains the "last best place" for salmon in the lower 48 states. A fascinating part of the episode explores what lies beneath the current reservoirs between Lewiston and Pasco. Underneath 140 miles of stagnant water are 66 named rapids that have been submerged for half a century. Greg describes a future where those dams come down, transforming the river into a premier multi-day destination where boaters could potentially paddle from the Middle Fork of the Salmon all the way home to the Columbia River. The episode also touches on the technical and political realities of dam removal. Greg clarifies that these dams were built with a 50-year lifespan that is now expiring, and their economic value—particularly in electricity generation—is diminishing. Unlike many other dams, these four were authorized by Congress, meaning their removal requires congressional action and a plan to replace services like barge shipping for grain with expanded rail and road infrastructure. Topics and links that Zach talked about in this episode Conservation: Idaho Rivers United and their mission to protect Idaho's waterways. Geography: The Lower Snake River watershed and the impact of the four lower dams. Policy: The role of Congress and the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission (FERC) in dam relicensing and removal. Key Discussion Points from this Episode Topic: Salmon Recovery. Why are the lower four Snake River dams the most significant impediment to salmon thriving in Idaho? Topic: Submerged Rapids. What were some of the legendary rapids, like Lewiston Rapid and Clarkston Rapid, like before the dams? Topic: Dam Lifespan. How does the expiring 50-year lifespan of these structures influence the urgency for removal? Topic: Logistics. What infrastructure needs to be built to replace barge shipping if the dams are removed?

Artist, Judy Glantzman, is back on the pod this week to discuss her friend and incredible artist, Dawn Clements (1958-2018). Come along with me as I hear more about this brave, innovative artist who celebrated the idea of the ungovernable doodle.

//The Wire//2300Z January 22, 2026////ROUTINE////BLUF: ICE OPERATIONS CONTINUE IN MAINE. THREE ARRESTS MADE IN MINNEAPOLIS REGARDING CITIES CHURCH INCIDENT. SEVERE WEATHER SYSTEM EXPECTED TO SWEEP THROUGH AMERICAN SOUTHEAST THIS WEEKEND.// -----BEGIN TEARLINE------HomeFront-Maine: DHS surge operations continue, with arrests being noted in Portland and Lewiston. This campaign has been dubbed "Operation Catch-Of-The-Day", and seeks to target known violent criminals throughout the state.Analyst Comment: So far, resistance to ICE is minimal, with most of the efforts to harass ICE not taking form as they have in Minneapolis. None of the madness of Minneapolis has carried over to Maine as of yet, and the arrest of extremely violent criminals is going smoothly so far. However, this should be expected to increase over time as various activist groups transition into the active resistance phases throughout the area.Minneapolis: Overnight, several bomb threats were made at various locations around the city. Locals report that emails alleging the emplacement of pipe bombs were sent to several hotels, as well as the Federal Courthouse downtown. After some time, all threats were confirmed to be unfounded.Following up on the raid at Cities Church which took place four days ago, three arrests have been made in conjunction with the investigation. William Kelly, Nekima Levy Armstrong, and Chauntyll Louisa Allen have been arrested for violations of the FACE Act.Analyst Comment: Considering that these are the first arrests made during this high-profile incident, it's likely that these arrests will be used to fuel more demonstrations. Right now, the other agitators have not been arrested, so the Key Leadership that helped plan the initial raid is still free to plan other raids this Sunday.Southeastern USA: A severe winter weather system is forecasted to arrive this weekend, bringing unseasonably heavy ice and snowfall for much of the American southeast. Upwards of 12 inches of snow and potentially several inches of ice are called for as the weather system descends on the region.Analyst Comment: This much snow and ice in a region that typically doesn't get much at all, has a tendency to break things. If these forecasts are accurate, this will be a once-in-a-lifetime winter weather event that has the potential to severely impact public infrastructure in many areas.-----END TEARLINE-----Analyst Comments: Over the past few days, a new demographic of agitator has been noted interfering with ICE operations...postal workers. Around the nation, several postal workers have been observed harassing ICE agents while on the job this week, in official USPS vehicles while actively working a shift. In once case, a USPS worker recording ICE agents shouted at them that he had immunity from arrest, because he was a federal employee. This is obviously not true; being a mailman does not grant any sort of immunity from arrest at all, however this is clearly what many mail carriers who deliver our ballots seem to think.In Minneapolis specifically, last month the Democratic Socialists of America (a far-left political militant organization) held self-described Communist Revolutionary protests for federal postal workers, on federal property. Postal workers at the Powderhorn and Lake Street Post Offices were upset that federal agents had used their parking lots to stage for immigration enforcement operations. As a result the DSA helped them to organize protests at their own federal facilities, which are becoming increasingly more active strongholds.Analyst: S2A1Research: https://publish.obsidian.md/s2undergroundDisclaimer: No LLMs were used in the writing of this report.//END REPORT//

//The Wire//2300Z January 21, 2026////ROUTINE////BLUF: UNITED STATES SEIZES ANOTHER OIL TANKER IN CARIBBEAN. ICE BEGINS SURGE OPERATIONS IN MAINE. DHS-INVOLVED SHOOTING REPORTED IN CALIFORNIA.// -----BEGIN TEARLINE------International Events-Caribbean: Yesterday afternoon US SOUTHCOM announced the seizure of the tanker *SAGITTA*, continuing the operation to seize sanctioned vessels throughout the region.Analyst Comment: This vessel had been on the sanctions list for a while, and regularly smuggled oil from Venezuela to Russia. This is the seventh oil tanker seized so far during this campaign.-HomeFront-California: This morning a DHS-involved shooting was reported in Los Angeles, in the vicinity of 126th Street and Mona Boulevard in Willowbrook. DHS agents were attempting to detain an illegal immigrant from El Salvador, who was wanted for violent crimes as well as human trafficking. During the operation to arrest him, he attacked agents, resulting in at least one officer discharging his weapon. Nobody was hit during the engagement, however the agent who engaged the suspect suffered unspecified wounds during the incident.USA: Around the nation, yesterday's national walkout campaign took place largely without much incident or impact. Several small demonstrations were noted in a few major cities, but nothing major. Several larger demonstrations and walk out campaigns are scheduled for later this week, and a general nationwide labor strike is planned for Friday. Separately, the National March for Life is scheduled to take place in Washington D.C. on Friday, which is usually a fairly large event every year. Counter-protesters usually always make a presence, and since this year's demonstration coincides with a labor strike, it's possible that bigger crowds might turn out on all sides.-----END TEARLINE-----Analyst Comments: In Maine, tensions are rising on a few different fronts. Following the recent scandals involving Somali fraud in Minneapolis, similar investigations have been underway throughout the state, which have uncovered fraud on an industrial scale in Lewiston. Over the past few weeks, more indictments and instances of fraud have come to light, which has brought increased scrutiny to smaller cities (such as Lewiston) where fraud appears to be running rampant.Separately, on the immigration front, ICE has begun surge operations throughout the state. ICE agents have already been carrying out immigration law enforcement operations in the state for some time, however due to the national spotlight being placed on Minneapolis, activists groups in Maine are eager to combat ICE in their state as well.Continuing the trend of the past few months, several hotlines have been established by NGOs, which specifically aid and abet illegals in evading capture in Maine. For context, the website of just one of these organizations, the Maine Immigrants' Rights Coalition, lists total of 112 different organizations and other NGOs that are in their network, which provide resources to illegals evading immigration law.To put this number in perspective, Maine only has about 30 hospitals throughout the state, so there are approximately three times more immigration support facilities than there are medical facilities in the entire state. And on top of that, this is just one network and their partners; there are dozens more like this. They even have a handy link analysis chart already built on their own website, which shows the links between the dozens of agencies all fighting to interfere with immigration enforcement operations. This points not only to the significance of the funding and organization of all of this, but also how substantial of an effort is being undertaken to evade the enforcement of immigration law.Analyst: S2A1Research: https://publish.obsidian.md/s2undergroundDisclaimer: No LLMs were

This Day in Maine Wednesday, January 14, 2026

//The Wire//2300Z January 13, 2026////ROUTINE////BLUF: LOS ANGELES TERRORIST RELEASED ON BAIL AFTER BEING CHARGED ONLY WITH A MISDEMEANOR. SOMALI FRAUD INVESTIGATIONS CONTINUE IN MAINE. RIOTS CONTINUE IN MINNEAPOLIS.// -----BEGIN TEARLINE------HomeFront-Minneapolis: The nightly riots continued yesterday evening, with unrest largely centering around the Whipple Federal Building. Tear gas has been deployed at this location daily, as rioters routinely try to block vehicles from entering/exiting the facility's Entry Control Point (ECP). Overnight, the perimeter at the Federal Building was expanded and fortified with more fencing. Throughout the city, most of the kinetic activity has been confined to E 34th Street, with tear gas and flashbangs being used regularly in a defensive role, to prevent rioters from physically assaulting ICE agents during arrests.Maine: Investigations into Somali fraud have continued to expand. In the town of Lewiston, a Somalian man at the center of recent scandal has resigned a few days after being sworn in. Iman Osman was reportedly elected to office last month, even though he had been indicted by a federal grand jury for stealing firearms.Analyst Comment: The Osman case has been developing for a while. Scandal first arose after citizens realized that he committed fraud on his campaign paperwork regarding his official residence. His official residence as per campaign paperwork is actually a vacant building that had been condemned because it had been used as a meth lab, so no one can verify that he actually lives in the district. Yesterday, the other members of the City Council voted to investigate his residency status, and Osman's only act as a City Councilor was to be the only vote against the investigation into himself. After the votes came out 6-1 against him, he resigned.California: The man who carried out the vehicle ramming attack at the Iranian protest in Los Angeles has been identified as Calor Madanescht. As the attack only wounded two people (both of whom refused medical care at the scene), the assailant has only been charged with reckless driving. Madanescht's bond has been set at zero dollars (the standard for misdemeanors in California), and he was released from jail Monday afternoon.-----END TEARLINE-----Analyst Comments: In their own press release, the LAPD admits that he intended to ram the crowd and police officers, forcing several of them to jump out of the way (thus confirming deadly intent). It must be noted that the details of this case are pretty sketchy overall, considering how the attacker did not cause nearly as much damage as he could have. The odd statements found on the assailant's social media page, and the fact that he claims to be an Iranian refugee who happens to have an incredibly non-Iranian name, all add to the strangeness of this incident. However, just because this guy is the most ineffective terrorist in recent memory doesn't mean that he isn't still a terrorist. And now, he's back on the street at a time when Iranian protests are continuing throughout Los Angeles, and tensions remain palpably high in the Middle East.Any time that tensions escalate overseas regarding a hot-button issue, these tensions nearly always are mirrored within the American homeland, which often manifest in attacks or at minimum clashes between protest groups. In this case, the FBI and the Joint Terrorism Task Force are investigating the attack, which is a moot point if the terrorist has been released by the local authorities. As anti-regime protests (of varying size) are fairly regular throughout Los Angeles, it's quite likely that the original assailant himself, but more likely others who will see that he got away with this, will conduct copycat vehicle ramming attacks over the next few days. Whether or not any terrorist is willing to capitalize on this is anyone's guess, but the situation

‘Tis the season for exchanging greetings, sending salutations, and dashing off (humblebrag) holiday letters. But chances are, there's someone you haven't reached out to yet…so what are you waiting for?Today Now or Never is nudging you to finally get those meaningful messages out into the world, starting with our own Trevor Dineen.For the past three (!) years, a complete stranger with Trevor's old phone number, has been redirecting his birthday messages and phone calls. Trevor has never spoken to him, but today, he calls up this helpful stranger to say thanks. When her baby boy Lewiston was diagnosed with Spinal Muscular Atrophy, Calgary's Jessica Janzen was determined his short life would be full of joy. That meant dance parties to Can't Stop the Feeling by Justin Timberlake. Now, Jessica is trying to get Timberlake to join her in a dance for what would be Lewiston's 10th birthday.When Laurie Froman was a teenager growing up in Six Nations of the Grand River, her dad used to do little drawings on her lunch bags, along with this simple message: “Have a good day. Love, Dad.” Laurie tells us why she's hung on to these paper lunchbags for 35 years, and why the message is even more dear to her since her dad Cecil passed away. Toronto's Cheryl Swanson didn't expect to give birth in her living room, but her son had other plans. Ever since that night she's held onto a debt of gratitude that she needs to deliver. The question is: twelve years later, can we find the paramedic to make it happen? When her colleagues at the University of Regina learned that Angela was fleeing domestic abuse, they stepped up and helped her feel safe. Angela shares the difference it made and how other workplaces can do the same.Keith Merker wrote a Christmas song to cheer up his wife Lindsay as she was going through chemotherapy. The couple wasn't in the spirit to enjoy the song at the time, so it collected dust for over a decade…Until this year, when Keith was diagnosed with an aggressive form of brain cancer. The family is now on a mission to use the song to spread a message of joy and hope as widely and loudly as they possibly can.

FEEL GOOD STORY - LEWISTON LARRY'S BIKES by 101.9POR

On this week's episode of The Origins Podcast, I am excited to release a conversation that has been sitting in our archives for more than a year. When we first recorded this discussion with conflict mediator and systems thinker Diana McLain Smith, political polarization was already a significant national and international problem. It has only gotten worse.The world seems more tribal than ever, and there is constant pressure to have to pick a side in every argument and not listen to any different opinions, or even divergent facts. In this episode, we step back from that noise and ask what our deep evolutionary wiring for in group loyalty means in a complex modern democracy, how history and culture can turn ordinary differences into hardened divides, and what it might take to reduce the space between “us” and “them” rather than accept permanent hostility as normal.Through stories that range from local communities like Billings, Montana and Lewiston, Maine to the quiet work of reform in the United States Congress, Diana draws on decades of experience with families, organizations, and civic coalitions to show that citizens are not as powerless as we often feel, especially when we resist the demand for instant certainty and allow ourselves to say, “I do not know, I have not really thought about that before. I'm not on any one side. Let me look at the evidence before I form an opinion.”This is the basis of much of the scientific method, and it is something that we can all learn to do too. The benefits are immediate. You approach life with more curiosity, and you are freer from assumptions and biases.Conversations like this go to the heart of the Origins Project Foundation mission, which is to bring the habits of mind that underlie science into our shared public life. My conversations on the podcast blend serious works in physics, psychology, and history with urgent questions about how we live together, and to model what it looks like to treat ideas as hypotheses to be tested rather than badges of tribal identity.In an environment that rewards outrage more than understanding, a commitment to evidence, curiosity, and a willingness to change one's mind is not just an intellectual posture, it is a civic act.This episode with Diana is offered in that spirit.As always, an ad-free video version of this podcast is also available to paid Critical Mass subscribers. Your subscriptions support the non-profit Origins Project Foundation, which produces the podcast. The audio version is available free on the Critical Mass site and on all podcast sites, and the video version will also be available on the Origins Project YouTube.

Lewiston Shooting 2 Year Anniversary by Maine's Coast 93.1

In a powerful new conversation, Alivia Goncalves — sister of Kaylee Goncalves, one of the victims in the University of Idaho murders — is breaking her silence about her private meeting with prosecutors and investigators in Lewiston, Idaho in an interview with Brian Entin. We discuss what she revealed to him. For the first time, Alivia shares what really happened behind closed doors on October 6th, when she sat alone across from members of the prosecution team, Idaho State Police, and Moscow PD — determined to learn everything she could about her sister's murder and the evidence against Bryan Kohberger. In this emotional, revealing discussion, Alivia describes the meeting as “traumatizing but necessary.” She opens up about what it was like to see key evidence firsthand — including the full surveillance timeline tracking Kohberger's movements from 3:00 to 4:20 a.m., the cell tower CAST data showing 23 visits to the victims' home, and even one carefully redacted crime scene photo. She also talks about the moment prosecutor Bill Thompson admitted he couldn't guarantee that sensitive images would never leak — a moment that pushed her to face the unthinkable rather than risk being blindsided online later. Alivia reveals new context about Kohberger's Amazon knife purchase, the witness list including one of his sisters, and her reaction to recently unsealed Washington State University reports detailing multiple complaints from women who said Kohberger made them feel unsafe. But the heart of this story isn't just the evidence — it's Alivia's ongoing mission. She's building a digital archive to preserve the full truth of what happened to Kaylee, Maddie, Xana, and Ethan — to protect their legacy from conspiracy theories and online distortion. This is a story about strength, truth, and the fight to keep reality intact. #BryanKohberger #KayleeGoncalves #IdahoMurders #MoscowIdaho #AliviaGoncalves #HiddenKillers #TrueCrimePodcast #UniversityOfIdaho #JusticeForKaylee #TonyBrueski Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

Trump Sues Wall Street Journal Over Epstein Birthday Letter Allegation President Trump files a lawsuit against the Wall Street Journal and News Corp over a report claiming he drew a suggestive birthday card for Jeffrey Epstein in 2003. Trump calls the letter fake and denies the language or drawing style matches his. Bryan explains this is what prompted Trump to denounce the Epstein case earlier this week and argues the leak may be tied to fired DOJ official Maurene Comey. Congress Moves to Slash Billions from Global Aid and Public Broadcasting The House is expected to approve a rescissions bill that cuts $9 billion from foreign aid and media outlets like NPR and PBS. Democrats call the cuts cruel, while Trump's budget chief confirms more clawback bills are coming. Thailand Ups Tariff Offer to Avoid Trade Penalties Thailand increases its offer to allow 90% of U.S. goods tariff-free, part of Trump's broader strategy to open global markets for American products. The White House has not yet said if it will accept the revised deal. 93% Tariff on Chinese Graphite Set to Boost U.S. Mining The U.S. announces steep tariffs on graphite imports from China, a critical mineral for batteries and aerospace.

1976 - Lewiston, Maine. In the early hours of a November morning in 1976, Dorothy “Dotty” Milliken left her home  to do some late-night laundry in Lewiston, Maine. She never made it back. A local paperboy found her body just before dawn, outside Beal's Laundromat. She had been beaten to death in what police called a frenzied attack. Tonia was just seven when her mother was killed—a traumatic loss that reshaped the course of her family's future. In the years since, she's worked to understand what happened. Now, a new book revisits the case, pulling together decades of theories, suspects, new interviews, and questions to form a possible picture of that night. But police are still missing a critical piece of the puzzle: the person that knows who killed Dorothy Milliken. If you have any information on the murder of Dorothy Milliken, please contact the Maine State Police Major Crimes Unit South at ⁠(207)624-7076⁠ x9. The family is offering a $10k reward for information that leads to the arrest and conviction of the person(s) responsible for this crime.

1976 - Lewiston, Maine. On a cold November morning in 1976, 27-year-old Dorothy Milliken—Dotty to those who loved her—was found bludgeoned to death outside Beal's Laundromat in Lewiston, ME. A paperboy made the grim discovery around 4:30 a.m. She'd gone out to do some late-night laundry, and while the city still slept, someone ended her life. Her killer has never been caught. As the years passed, Dorothy's case went cold. But long before her name joined Maine's growing list of unsolved murders, Dorothy Rancourt Milliken was living a quiet, honest life. She was a veteran. A survivor. A mother. This is her story.  This is part 1 of 2. Part 2 will be released on June 17th.  If you have any information on the murder of Dorothy Milliken, please contact the Maine State Police Major Crimes Unit South at (207)624-7076 x9. The family is offering a $10k reward for information that leads to the arrest and conviction of the person(s) responsible for this crime.
