Send us Fan MailRhode Island's primary sprint, the Providence mayor's race, and the shakeup in statewide politicsWith early voting underway, Bill Bartholomew and Jim Hummel (The Hummel Report, Ocean State Media, WPRO) break down a Rhode Island primary that feels unusually compressed, low-energy, and wide open in several marquee races. They focus on the governor's race, the Providence mayoral primary, and how turnout, apathy, and candidate organization could decide everything.We discuss why the governor's race appears to be Helena Foulkes versus Dan McKee, why Providence mayor could be the most consequential contest on the ballot, and how the attorney general and lieutenant governor primaries are shaped by heavy uncertainty and weak candidate separation. The conversation also zooms out to the collapse of Rhode Island Republican infrastructure and the question of whether independent Ken Block can change the dynamics.Key topicsThe primary feels like a sprint after a long buildup, with very little time to energize voters before election day.Hummel argues that apathy is the dominant force in this cycle, especially because many races feel either predetermined or hard to differentiate.In the governor's race, Dan McKee is framed as carrying a long list of political liabilities, including the Washington Bridge, CVS/opioids, and general voter fatigue.Helena Foulkes is seen as holding a consistent polling advantage, with multiple polls showing her ahead by a meaningful margin.The Providence mayor's race between incumbent Brett Smiley and challenger David Morales is described as the most interesting contest, with Morales bringing national attention and youthful energy.Smiley's strength is his political infrastructure, especially his turnout operation and support from Eddie Catucci, who is described as a master of mail ballots and ground game.The lieutenant governor and attorney general primaries are portrayed as crowded and muddy, with lots of undecided voters and very little ideological separation.The discussion notes that gun policy and constitutional concerns may be pushing some Democratic voters away from more aggressive positions in the AG race.National anti-incumbent sentiment is seen as helping challengers broadly, but not necessarily translating cleanly to every local race.Rhode Island Republicans are described as deeply weakened, lacking a coherent bench, a strong message, or an effective opposition strategy.Aaron Guckian and the Republican gubernatorial field are viewed as weakly positioned, while the congressional races are portrayed as even more chaotic.Ken Block is treated as the most plausible wild card in the governor's race, especially if he can consolidate support or benefit from a one-on-one dynamic.Timestamps(00:00) Opening the primary sprint and why this cycle feels flat (01:43) Why turnout and election-day energy matter more than usual (03:23) Providence mayor becomes the race to watch (05:36) McKee's polling problem and the uphill climb in the governor's race (06:23) What could help McKee and what still works against him (07:31) Smiley's turnout machine versus Morales' grassroots energy (08:42) Why the lieutenant governor and AG races are so unsettled (09:46) Little separation in the AG field and the gun policy divide (11:23) Does national anti-incumbent anger spill into Rhode Island? (13:14) What Providence schools and city management mean for Smiley (14:15) The collapse of the Rhode Island Republican ecosystem (15:55) Why the GOP congressional slate looks so weak (17:14) How Trump hollowed out the state party (19:41) Could Ken Block become the real governor's race alternative? (21:55) Block's media strategy and money challenge (22:25) Election day timing, early voting, and closing thoughtsSupport the showFollow Bill on Instagram and YouTube

Send us Fan MailBill Bartholomew talks with Katie Sonder, Associate Director and Fellow at the Salve Regina University Pell Center, about the center's August 2026 Voices of Value poll and what it says about Rhode Island's Democratic and Republican primary races. The conversation focuses on the headline McKee-Folkes result, the unusually high number of undecided voters, and how academic polling can fill a gap left by shrinking local media polling.Bill Bartholomew frames the poll, questions the methodology, and argues that academic polling is becoming more important as traditional outlets poll less often. Katie Sonder explains the survey design, the likely-voter screen, the two-step question process for undecided respondents, and why the Pell Center launched the project in the first place.Key topicsIn this episode, the main headline is the Democratic gubernatorial primary poll showing Helena Folkes ahead of incumbent Governor Dan McKee, 48% to 28%.Katie Sonder says the most surprising finding is the size of the undecided bloc, especially in down-ballot races like Lieutenant Governor and Attorney General, where nearly half of likely voters are unsure.Sonder explains the poll's two-question method for undecideds: respondents first pick among candidates, then are asked again if they have to choose.The Pell Center's Voices of Value project is designed to track Rhode Island views on state issues and national issues, including democracy, polarization, media habits, legislation, and bridge reconstruction.Bill and Katie discuss the broader role of academia in polling and journalism as local media budgets shrink and fewer outlets produce their own statewide polls.Sonder says the Pell Center sees the poll as a public good and a bridge between the university and the community.On the Democratic side, Sonder points to crowded fields and lower name recognition as reasons for uncertainty in races like Lieutenant Governor and Attorney General.Bill notes that in the Lieutenant Governor race, Sabina Matos and Zay Collin are near the top, but the undecided share remains very high.In the Attorney General race, Kim Ahern leads the pack, but 46% of voters are still unsure.The Senate discussion turns to the three-way race involving Jack Reed, Connor Burbridge, and Dr. Luis Daniel Munoz, with Bill arguing that Burbridge's 12% reflects real campaign momentum.On the Republican side, Sonder explains that the smaller sample size means a larger margin of error, but Elaine Poirino still holds a notable lead over Aaron and Jukian.Bill emphasizes the transparency of the Pell Center's materials, including the report, crosstabs, methodology, and survey questions.Timestamps00:00 - New Pell Center poll and the McKee-Folkes Democratic primary headline00:44 - Katie Sonder on the biggest surprise: the undecided vote02:30 - How the poll's two-step undecided question works04:49 - Why the Pell Center launched Voices of Value06:03 - Academia, journalism, and the shrinking local polling ecosystem07:14 - Why the Pell Center sees polling as a public service10:48 - How Katie thinks about reliability and academic rigor11:30 - Why down-ballot races have so many undecided voters12:40 - Using the poll to inform voters and candidate research13:10 - Jack Reed race, Connor Burbridge, and campaign momentum14:10 - Lieutenant governor race read: Matos, Zay Collin, and weak showings14:40 - Republican primary polling challenges and Elaine Poirino's lead15:28 - Sample size, margin of error, and confidence on the GOP side16:44 - Why the Republican race remains too fluid to call18:39 - Where to find the report, crosstabs, methodology, and survey questions19:24 - Transparency, expertise, and why the poll matters in the civic landscape Support the showFollow Bill on Instagram and YouTube

Sam is a youth worker who wanted to reach thousands of students across 11 schools in his area – within the schools themselves. Impossible? Maybe not when you tap into the "best-kept secret" network of scientists, researchers, and academics who profess Christ. By bringing credible, yet faith-grounded, professionals to speak at assemblies, Sam has created an incredible system for helping schools, getting faith conversations started, and helping young people hear a Christian witness right inside their school. Sam McKee is a research scientist in cancer genomics and DNA repair. Sam speaks regularly to both students and adults on biology, aspects of religion and science, and history/philosophy of science.He joined Aylesbury Youth For Christ as Director in early 2021. He has worked in youth work for 16 years full-time in a variety of roles, as well as spending 3 years in business. He gained a BSc in genetics at Cambridge University, a BA (Hons) in theology at Chester University followed by an MRes. He has a second master's degree in molecular biology from Birkbeck and two qualifications in education. Sam lives in the Wycombe area with his wife Naomi and 3 daughters.If you're keen to find speakers for your school, reach out to Sam on LinkedIn or at sam-mckee.co.uk He mentions the Faraday Institute, The OCCA, Christians in Science and even Solas as sources for speakers.

Chris McKee wraps up everything that happened at the Wyndham Championship where Michael Brennan earned his second career PGA Tour title + McKee discussed all the details from LIV New York where CEO Scott O'Neil revealed LIV's new investor. McKee closes the show discussing Bryson DeChambeau. 

Brian Allen, chief investment officer at CS McKee, says that while stock valuations are at "heady levels," the current spending expectations for the artificial intelligence revolution can justify those high prices, and even make them seem somewhat cheap. He notes that the current economy seems like "the gilded age and industrial revolution repeated some 135 years later." While concerned with valuations, Allen remains constructive on the market, noting that the trend on forward inflation "looks to be more under control" — especially when viewed through some alternative indicators — and that investor concerns don't appear insurmountable for the market, at least for now. In the Market Call, Laks Ganapathi, chief executive officer at Unicus Research — an independent research firm that specializes in short selling — discusses how she decides which stocks to bet against, what conditions she won't challenge even when she foresees trouble ahead and more. Plus, Chuck talks about his adventures in spending and saving on a big purchase during the tax-free weekend in Massachusetts and how, to maximize the savings, he agreed to an outrageous credit card interest rate that, for a less-vigilant consumer, would quickly turn a good deal into something very ugly.

Today we are bringing a great show for you. Ron Arenas and Ron Kirk are hosting. Our first guest is CDO football coach Scott McKee. Coach McKee brings many years of valuable experience as a coach and as a former walk on player at the University of Arizona.  We'll find out about this season's CDO team.Then, our next guest is Tom Sommerville. A former police officer and current member of Boys In Blue. Tom will share with us the mission of Boys In Blue. And why it means so much to him.

McKee, 2026 SCC 24, where a police detective's expunged discipline record became an issue at trial. Did a provision in Alberta's Police Services Regulation removing a misconduct finding from an officer's disciplinary file also render the misconduct non-disclosable for criminal law purposes? Or did the expunged record still need to be disclosed by Crown to the accused because it may have been relevant to the detective's credibility, reliability or conduct during the investigation?See also:R. v. McNeil, 2009 SCC 3 R. v. Stinchcombe, [1991] 3 SCR 326Thanks for listening! Feedback welcome at legalissuesinpolicing@gmail.com

In this episode, Cory Connors welcomes back longtime friend of the show Ryan Fox from Bloomberg Intelligence for his fourth or fifth appearance. Ryan shares how he stumbled into the corrugated industry by accident in 2010 after a career detour through ministry and fitness equipment sales, and how he eventually landed at Bloomberg Intelligence in 2020 to cover the industry full time. The conversation dives deep into Ryan's one-of-a-kind Box Makers' Certificate (BMC) collection, the surprising history behind why BMCs exist at all, and what's really driving corrugated demand (or the lack of it) in 2025. Key Topics Discussed: Ryan's winding path into corrugated: ministry, fitness equipment sales, an MBA in innovation management, and a chance connection into a box plant sales jobHow Ryan became a full-time industry analyst at Bloomberg Intelligence starting April 1, 2020Ryan's collection of over 500 Box Makers' Certificates (BMCs), how he organizes and classifies them, and his "This Old Box" LinkedIn seriesThe 100+ year history of the BMC: corrugated's origins in the late 1890s, Robert Gare's accidental invention, and Sam Langston's early corrugating machineThe 1914 Pridham decision, railroad price gouging, and how Rule 41 created the need for box certificationThe 1960s shift with NMFC Item 222 and how the 42-lb kraft linerboard / 26-lb semi-chemical medium index shaped "should-cost" pricing for 200-lb Mullen boardThe industry's move from Mullen to ECT (Edge Crush Test) starting in 1990, and why 32 ECT (C-flute) dominates as the commodity grade for single-wall boxesThe science of box strength: the McKee formulation, predicting ECT from paper properties, and tools like the Chalmers Dynamic Stiffness TesterBehind-the-scenes craftsmanship: corrugator operations, die-mounting, flexographic print plates, and why a cutting die can cost $5,000The value of skilled trades on the plant floor and the case for box buyers to tour a corrugated plant2025 industry trends: square footage of boxes produced matching 1994 levels, the impact of offshoring pre-packaged imports, and 400,000+ open U.S. manufacturing jobsWages and opportunity in box plants, from $22/hour entry-level to $35/hour for skilled press operatorsWhy corrugated demand spiked during the pandemic and has since receded: shifting consumer spending, GLP-1 drugs, e-commerce paper mailers, and macro headwinds like conflict in Iran and rising freight and gas pricesOutlook for corrugated volume heading into the next 12-18 monthsResources Mentioned:Bloomberg IntelligenceFibre Box Association dataLinkedIn: Ryan FoxLinkedIn: BloombergContact: Listeners interested in Bloomberg Intelligence's corrugated and box industry research can reach out to Ryan Fox.Support our Sponsors Learn more here:- 3M- Specright- Forest Thank you for tuning in to Sustainable Packaging with Cory Connors!https://anewearthproject.com/collections/new-earth-approvedConnect with CoryConnect with Cory on LinkedIn here: https://www.linkedin.com/in/cory-connors/I'm here to help you make your packaging more sustainable!

John McKee discusses the development of the Messianic Fall Holiday Helper, originally released in spiral comb (2004), but later appropriately expanded and updated as new needs presented themselves.

You’ve probably heard the words ‘biofeedback' and ‘neurofeedback' floating around the internet. And you're also probably wondering what they mean and if they're worth your time and money when you have a vestibular disorder. I'm answering all of that in this episode! Biofeedback is a type of mind-body technique to control some of the body's function. And neurofeedback is a type of biofeedback that measures and records brainwaves. As always, I've got research and scenarios for us to talk through to help this really land. They're probably not the first thing you want to invest in and there are even less expensive options that are equally or more effective which I share more about in the episode. Buckle up and let's get a little nerdy with this one! In this episode, we'll dig into: What biofeedback is and how it works What the main types of biofeedback are What neurofeedback is and how it relates to biofeedback The difference between active and passive neurofeedback The two main models of biofeedback that exist What to expect in a biofeedback session What biofeedback is considered effective for Types of neurofeedback and biofeedback sessions, devices, and apps available How to find a qualified biofeedback provider What questions to ask before committing to either option If you want to go even deeper with what you heard in this episode, we have coaching calls specifically about biofeedback and neurofeedback available in Vestibular Group Fit. Biofeedback is a tool, not a cure. But if you’re curious, informed, and financially comfortable exploring it, it absolutely can have a place in your vestibular toolkit.

For decades, cabins around Maine's North Pond were burgled by someone who took food, books, and propane — and fixed the doors on his way out. Locals called him the North Pond Hermit, and plenty of them doubted he existed at all. Then, one April night in 2013, a silent alarm at a summer camp brought a game warden face to face with a man carrying stolen groceries and a secret almost too big to believe. What he told police that night launched one of the strangest criminal cases in Maine's history — and left an entire state arguing over what, exactly, he was guilty of. Julie and Kaycee unravel how he pulled it off, what it cost the people around that pond, and the one question the courts never fully answered. 00:44 Show Intro And Setup 01:06 Caught In The Kitchen 03:32 North Pond Burglar Legend 07:34 Pine Tree Camp Sting 10:14 Who Is Christopher Knight 12:43 Hidden Camp And Winter Routine 16:11 Survival By Burglary 20:00 Close Calls And Capture 21:44 Jail Fame And Finkel Interviews 23:57 Court Program And Sentencing 26:58 Stillness And Final Thoughts 30:36 Outro And Takeaway Listen AD FREE: Support our podcast at patreaon: http://patreon.com/TheCruxTrueSurvivalPodcast Email us! thecruxsurvival@gmail.com Instagram https://www.instagram.com/thecruxpodcast/ Get schooled by Julie in outdoor wilderness medicine! https://www.headwatersfieldmedicine.com/ REFERENCES: "Christopher Thomas Knight," Wikipedia (accessed July 2026) — biographical overview, camp details, 2012 cabin encounter, Bellavance discovery.

Your hosts last talked with wonderfully imaginative modeler and Austin, TX-based tech consultant Jake McKee about the possibilities (and, yeah, some of the downsides) of Artificial Intelligence in the hobby back on Episode 55 in February 2025. In hyper-speed tech-time, that might as well have been 250 years ago, recorded on parchment with quill and ink like the Declaration of Independence.When he saw Barry at the Rocky Mountain Hobby Expo in May—and claimed the More Than Meets the Eye award sponsored by the Her Shrink Ray Eye podcast, as discussed on our last episode and featured in the last installment of this blog—Jake suggested to Barry that he had a whole lot new to say about AI and modeling based on his recent digital discoveries. And since he's such an engaging and forward-thinking guest, you didn't have to twist our arms to have him back for a return visit!
