In this engaging episode we go far beyond the grid and the spectacle of 380-yard bombs to uncover the heart, wisdom, and entrepreneurial spirit of a true icon. Host Colin Weston sits down with the remarkable Phillis Meti - ranked #3 in the world and 5 time World Champ - to explore her incredible journey from picking up her father's shanked golf balls in New Zealand to becoming a global golf ambassador. Phillis opens up about the fierce mentality required to compete, the pivotal lessons learned from both victory and heartbreaking defeat, and her visionary mission to pave pathways for the next generation. This conversation is a masterclass in longevity, adaptability, and giving back. Whether you're fascinated by the physics of speed, the business of golf, or stories of profound resilience, Phillis's insights will leave you inspired and ready to “kick the door down” for your own ambitions. Get ready for an episode packed with power, purpose, and unforgettable stories. https://media24.fireside.fm/file/fireside-uploads-2024/images/1/1ea879c1-a4a2-4e10-bea4-e5d8368a3c7a/cTlwO047.jpg Key takeaways in this episode with Phillis that you will discover: Longevity is Built on Wisdom and Adaptability: Success isn't just about raw speed. Phillis credits her sustained career to evolving from a "fearless" hitter into a savvier technical player, learning to adapt her ball flight to different grids, and prioritizing recovery and intelligent strength training. True Power Starts with Your Hands: A crucial technical insight for anyone wanting more speed: your hands hold the club, so their movement is paramount. Phillis emphasizes that generating speed is a sequencing chain, where proper hip movement ultimately serves to allow the hands to move faster through the hitting zone. Create Pathways So Others Can Follow: Phillis's vision extends far beyond competition. Inspired by her parents, she is actively working to build an indigenous school and recruitment pipeline to help student-athletes from New Zealand and Polynesia transition to U.S. colleges, ensuring they have the support to succeed. Her mission is to show what's possible and pull others up with her.

I got caught up in the hype. Between then and now, I am a better game player with a bit more wisdom. I play the game differently now." On Equipment and Control: "The one thing about the women is that we don't swing it fast enough to afford using lofts lower than a seven-degree head. I have one of the fastest club head speeds, but I use one of the highest lofts on the tour." On Legacy and Lifting Others: "When you're on your way up, always try to look back and pull others up with you. So if people want to keep going further than you, at least they have your shoulders to stand on. Why not be me to kick down that door? I've got a big foot!" Phillis Meti's bio page >> https://modgolf.fireside.fm/guests/phillis-meti Phillis Meti is a multi-time World Long Drive Champion, currently ranked #3 globally, whose career embodies power, resilience, and purpose. Hailing from New Zealand, her journey began at age seven, wielding a club to pick up her father's errant golf balls. A gifted multi-sport athlete, she excelled in netball and discus before a flyer for a local long drive qualifier at age 18 changed her trajectory. Demonstrating breathtaking natural power, she not only qualified but went on to win the World Long Drive Championship in her very first attempt in 2006. Nearly two decades later, Phillis remains a dominant force, combining 125 MPH clubhead speed with hard-earned wisdom to outthink and outlast the competition on grids across the globe. Colin and Phillis were part of Team AM Golf at The Vegas Baby ProAm Invitational in Las Vegas, where they shot lots of video including this YouTube Short as part of Colin's Positivity Project: https://media24.fireside.fm/file/fireside-uploads-2024/images/1/1ea879c1-a4a2-4e10-bea4-e5d8368a3c7a/H4Xa8VDs.jpg (https://youtube.com/shorts/_WDI9IYTkCA?si=oIX7kGfvY8nbWuYu) Join our mission to make golf more innovative, inclusive and fun... and WIN some awesome golf gear!

More than twenty years after federal prosecutor Jonathan Luna was found dead in a Pennsylvania creek with more than 30 stab wounds, new evidence is finally shedding light on one of the most baffling unsolved cases in the region. Luna, a rising attorney in Baltimore's U.S. Attorney's Office, disappeared after a late-night departure from a downtown parking garage and embarked on a strange, circuitous drive across multiple states. His body was discovered hours later, submerged beside his car, in what the coroner ruled a homicide—yet no suspects were ever identified, and early attempts to frame his death as self-inflicted only deepened public skepticism.This episode examines the newly released autopsy report—kept secret for over two decades and obtained only after a long legal battle by Lancaster Online—and what it reveals about Luna's final hours. We also revisit Stephen Janis's original reporting on the case during his years at The Baltimore Examiner, exploring how these new findings align with or challenge what he uncovered at the time. Together, we break down the facts, the unanswered questions, and why this mysterious death still haunts the corridors of federal law enforcement today.

CTL Script/ Top Stories of August 15th Publish Date: August 15th Pre-Roll: From the Ingles Studio Welcome to the Award-Winning Cherokee Tribune Ledger Podcast Today is Friday, August 15th and Happy Birthday to Joe Jonas I’m Peyton Spurlock and here are the stories Cherokee is talking about, presented by Times Journal Canton approves contract for creation of Cherokee land bank University System of Georgia packs huge economic punch Cherokee County schools show Milestones improvements Plus, Leah McGrath from Ingles Markets on Food Apps We’ll have all this and more coming up on the Cherokee Tribune-Ledger Podcast, and if you’re looking for Community news, we encourage you to listen and subscribe! Commercial: COBB INT. FESTIVAL STORY 1: Canton approves contract for creation of Cherokee land bank The Cherokee Regional Land Bank is inching closer to reality. On Aug. 7, Canton’s City Council gave the green light to an intergovernmental contract to create the land bank. Now, it’s up to the Cherokee County Board of Commissioners, along with the councils in Holly Springs and Woodstock, to decide. No dates yet, but they’ll weigh in soon. So, what’s a land bank? Think of it as a way to breathe life into abandoned or blighted properties—turning eyesores into opportunities. The idea’s been in the works since late 2022, with Canton and Cherokee County leading the charge. If approved, a board of directors will oversee the land bank, with members appointed by the county, cities, and the Cherokee Office of Economic Development. They’ll work unpaid, but their mission? Big: housing, economic development, and revitalizing neglected spaces. Canton Mayor Bill Grant called it a “tool” to tackle housing and economic goals. And while the land bank won’t have eminent domain powers, it could still be a game-changer for the region. Bartow County already has one—maybe Cherokee’s next. STORY 2: University System of Georgia packs huge economic punch Georgia’s public colleges and universities are making waves—big ones. In fiscal 2024, the University System of Georgia (USG) pumped $23.1 billion into the state’s economy. That’s a 5.4% jump from last year. Here’s the breakdown: $15.2 billion came from direct spending—students, staff, and the 26 institutions themselves. The other $7.9 billion? That’s the ripple effect, money flowing into local businesses and communities. And for students? The payoff is huge. A bachelor’s degree from a USG school means, on average, $1.4 million more in lifetime earnings. Master’s grads? $1.7 million. Doctorates? Nearly $2.5 million. USG schools also created jobs—lots of them. About 32% were on campus, but the majority—68%—were off campus, fueling local economies. The studies, led by Jeff Humphreys of UGA’s Selig Center, show just how much these institutions matter—to students, to communities, to the entire state. STORY 3: Cherokee County schools show Milestones improvements The Cherokee County School District is celebrating some solid wins on the Georgia Milestones, with scores improving in most areas compared to last year and outperforming state averages for the 10th year running. Biggest gains? Math, science, and reading saw notable jumps, with highlights like an impressive 7.7% increase in eighth-grade science and a 7.4% boost in Algebra I. But it wasn’t all perfect—third-grade scores dipped slightly, and English Language Arts saw declines in a few grades, especially fifth (-8.3%). School Board Chair Janet Read Welch called the results “proof we’re on the right track,” crediting students, teachers, and parents for the progress. Superintendent Mary Elizabeth Davis echoed the optimism. The board will dive deeper into the data at its Aug. 21 meeting, with school-by-school results to follow online. We have opportunities for sponsors to get great engagement on these shows. Call 770.874.3200 for more info. We’ll be right back. Break: HISTORY CHEROKEE STORY 4: Woodstock OKs construction contracts for two fire stations Woodstock is gearing up for two new fire stations, both set to open in 2026. On Aug. 11, the city council approved contracts with Spratlin Construction to build Fire Station 28 on Ridgewalk Parkway and another on Long Drive—both 11,000 square feet. Why now? Rising call volumes. But when the contractor offered savings for building two at once, the city jumped. The move saves $606,000 and avoids hiring extra firefighters, thanks to a clever staffing plan. Station 28 will cost $7.4 million, Long Drive $6.8 million. Both are major investments in public safety, with funding from SPLOST and impact fees. Currently, Woodstock has two fire stations: Station 10, built in 1996, and Station 14, the department’s 2001-built headquarters. The new additions will dramatically improve coverage and response times for the growing city. STORY 5: Cherokee County teacher wins award from Georgia PTA A big shoutout to Mill Creek Middle School’s Ann-Margaret Somers, who just snagged the Georgia PTA’s Birney Butler Outstanding Educator award for middle schools. Pretty amazing, right? This isn’t her first rodeo with recognition. Somers, an eighth-grade science teacher, has racked up honors like Georgia Science Teachers Association’s Middle School Teacher of the Year (2022-23) and Georgia STEM Scholar in 2022—an award only about two dozen teachers statewide receive. Oh, and in 2020? She was one of just 26 teachers nationwide named a Teacher Fellow by the Northrop Grumman Foundation and National Science Teaching Association. Somers joined CCSD in 2015, and clearly, she’s been crushing it ever since. And now here is Leah McGrath from Ingles Markets on Food Apps Commercial: We’ll have closing comments after this.

My biggest fear is a road trip. Sitting in a cramped space for eight million hours, only getting to take a pee twice a day and never when you need to, either in awkward silence, an annoying conversation, or listening to something only one of the people wants to listen to... God, it's scary.

Send us a textThe forgotten heroes who shaped the American West emerge through the harrowing tale of the 1867 cattle drive that would later inspire the beloved "Lonesome Dove" narrative. As northeastern cities expanded in the 19th century, feeding their growing populations became increasingly problematic. The solution came in the form of the Long Drive—an economic revolution where small teams of cowboys moved massive herds of Texas longhorns over 600 miles to Kansas railheads, creating the foundation for a national food market.Behind this economic transformation were extraordinary individuals whose courage defined the frontier spirit. When Charles Goodnight and Oliver Loving embarked on their second cattle drive in 1867, they faced challenges that modern Americans can hardly comprehend—from stampedes during electrical storms to deadly encounters with indigenous warriors. African American cowboy Bose Ickard emerged as "one of the best night riders" in Goodnight's crew, demonstrating remarkable skill during a dangerous nighttime stampede. His cautious response—"I wasn't certain who had this herd till I saw you. I thought maybe the Indians had them"—reveals the constant vigilance required on these perilous journeys.The centerpiece of this episode recounts the fateful decision that would claim Oliver Loving's life. Against Goodnight's advice, Loving rode ahead to secure a business contract at Fort Sumner, accompanied only by the remarkable "One-Armed Bill" Wilson. Their subsequent battle with over a hundred Indians, Wilson's miraculous escape swimming down the Pecos River, and Loving's tragic death reveal the extraordinary human cost behind the economic development of the West. Perhaps most compelling is how these historical events inspired fictional characters like Joshua Deets in "Lonesome Dove," based on the real-life Bose Ickard—a testament to how African American cowboys found respect in communities that valued skill over race.
