This week we had the pleasure of having friend of the podcast Brock Mealer back on the podcast for a second time! Brock is a Keynote Speaker, Spinal Cord Injury Survivor, and Author of the brand-new book; Beyond 1%: Unleashing Your Potential Against All Odds. We chatted about the motivation behind writing this book and the difficulties tapping back into the emotions of the car accident that changed his life forever, how the book is more than just a story but also a template to help the reader set and achieve goals, and having his family members add stories and memories from their perspectives and weaving those into the book. This book made me laugh, cry, and think and I recommended to anyone dealing with a disability or not, I genuinely think there's something in it for everyone. Connect with Brock at his social media links below and do yourself a favor and order the book at the Amazon link!! Brock Mealer: IG: @brock.mealer FB: @brockmealer https://a.co/d/afjXoUW

  On Friday's show: Former Republican candidate for Harris County Judge, Alexandra del Moral Mealer, announced she will formally contest the results of the November election. We learn why she's made this announcement now, two months after she conceded the election to incumbent Judge Lina Hidalgo. And we learn more about Pres. Biden's upcoming visit to the border. Also this hour: We close out our series on the year ahead in Houston life with News 88.7's Andrew Schneider discussing what the year may have in store in state and local government. Then, two years after the Capitol insurrection, we discuss what's happened to Houston-area participants since and contemplate how we can avoid a repeat of the violence there after the next presidential election. And we break down The Good, The Bad, and The Ugly of the week.

Jimmy Barrett and Shara Fryer take you through the stories that matter the most on the morning of 01/06/2023

Today's Topics: Democrats hopes for a Blue Texas are going up in flames. NY city goes insane over the few migrants that have gone there. Diden trying to save the Iranian government from the people of Iran. 00:00 Sam's introduction for TUESDAY OCTOBER 18, 2022. 01:00 – Jessica Colon – Republican Strategist – Jessica said that the election will reveal the hypocrisy of the left. She said that the insecurity of the border is crushing the Democrats on the Southern border. The Houston Chronical endorsed Mealer last week, and it is now on the defensive. Two Republicans refused to sit on the last board meeting for Harris County since the Democrats have refused to make the books transparent, but want to pass a budget. 14:19 – Frank Vernuccio – Editor-in-Chief of New York Analysis & Policy – 9 min – Frank says the veterans he has worked with in NY need help, but are ignored by the government, but the government is sending DOD personnel to clean up after illegals. NYC is putting up illegals in $400 / night hotels. He said the Governor's Race is too close to call. 23:48 – Ret. Lt. Col. James J. Carafano – Heritage – 9 min – JJ talked about his musical preferences. He went on to say that it is unbelievable that the Biden admin wants to give money to the Iranian mullahs while the common man in Iran is protesting in the streets because of the mullahs' oppression.  32:48 -- CloseSee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Why the 2022 Harris County Judge Race will Be Critical for Education Programs in Harris County by Diana Martinez To protect public education, advocates must keep a close eye on local races such as the one for Harris County Judge. In Texas and across the country, education is under attack. Far-right misinformation propagandists are stirring up nonexistent issues to enrage unwitting parents to push bans on books and attacks on teachers. Schools are under constant threat of gun violence thanks to inaction by the governor and outlandish conspiracy policy pushed by Ted Cruz and the NRA. Even a cursory glance at the falsehoods and extremist positions peddled in the wake of Uvalde display the dangers of Greg Abbott's perspective on schools. Rightwing demagogues in league with outwardly white supremacist groups are aggresively protesting public LGBTQ events, a few short months after Indicted Texas Attorney General Ken Paxton decided to leverage the power of his office to attack trans kids through a questionable legal maneuver. ... Voters in Harris County have a choice this November to either embolden MAGA extremists who oppose public education programs that have had a significant positive impact in our community, or support the people who made those programs come to life. Parents, students, and teachers relying on critical services such as literacy programs, special needs education, and early childhood education from the Harris County Department of Education need our support to keep those services going. In particular, we need a County Judge like Lina Hidalgo, who will stand up for our local community against the whims of Greg Abbott, Dan Patrick, and their super donors. By backing pro-ed candidates like Hidalgo and Duhon, we can give every kid the chance to thrive. --- Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/politicsdoneright/message Support this podcast: https://anchor.fm/politicsdoneright/support

Today's Topics: What winter has in store for Russia and Ukraine. Moving migrants to NYC drives the Mayor nuts.  When the Red Wave hits the Border. 00:00 Sam's introduction for TUESDAY OCTOBER 11, 2022. 00:52– Ret. Lt. Col. James J. Carafano – Heritage –9 min – Talked about the progress made by the Russians before their forced retreat, and what effect that had on Ukraine and Russia.

And he talked about the opportunity heavy Ukraine winter will give to the Ukrainian army. 09:53  – Frank Vernuccio – Editor-in-Chief of New York Analysis & Policy – 8min – After listing off many of the ways President Biden has ruined America, Frank said it “can't get worse,” but it is.

In response, the Mayor proposed setting up a tent city in a parking lot. 18:08 – Jessica Colon – Republican Strategist – 12 min – Discussed her opinion that, if Republicans just go to the polls, the country will go red this year. She said with Abbott at the top of the ballot, and Mealer at the bottom, it should be easy to remember to vote red. Jessica pointed out the magnitude of Harris County in Federal Elections. Then she went on to discuss why Hispanics on the border are going red. 30:26 – CloseSee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Activist Diana Martinez Alexander did not leave it up to either the mainstream media or the Harris County judge to define her unqualified opponent. Diana decided to break the facade of the woman the Right Wing MAGA movement chose to malign and oust Lina Hidalgo. And what she found makes Lina Hidalgo's opponent, Alexandra Mealer, unfit to serve most of the people in Haris County. Diana wrote the following in the truthtelling news site Texas Signal in an article titled "OP-ED: ALEXANDRA MEALER'S GANG OF LIARS, BIGOTS, AND MAGA EXTREMISTS" --- Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/politicsdoneright/message Support this podcast: https://anchor.fm/politicsdoneright/support

Under Lina Hidalgo, the power – and budget - of the Harris County Judge have been expanded tremendously, but the people of Houston aren't seeing any benefit. If elected, Alex Mealer will instead focus on increasing law enforcement and reducing spending. Thanks for joining me for this episode!

Tonight we had a great conversation with our good buddy, Dakota Mealer... you may remember him from a past episode. Dakota is a fantastic trainer who currently has our little girl, Jolene, to see what he can do with her. We get to hear a little JoJo update as she has been working through force fetch, swim by, cold blinds, pattern blinds and should be coming up on decheating in the near future.  We also dig into a few tricks for getting a young dog into the water properly, using pigeons and ducks and what ideal dogs look like for Dakota when they first come to him. We chat about how and when to apply pressure and how to create compulsion with your dog. This is a super interesting conversation and it's one that many people (myself included) find confusing. Pay attention to how Dakota explains all this... Lone Duck's Gun Dog Chronicles is part of the Waypoint Outdoor Podcast Crew. Follow 'em and you'll be glad you did.

Link to bioRxiv paper: http://biorxiv.org/cgi/content/short/2020.10.01.322537v1?rss=1 Authors: Williams, S. W., Noel, M., Lehoux, S. D., Cetinbas, M., Xavier, R. J., Sadreyev, R., Scolnick, E. M., Smoller, J. W., Cummings, R. D., Mealer, R. G. Abstract: Glycosylation is essential to brain development and function, though prior studies have often been limited to a single analytical technique. Using several methodologies, we analyzed Asn-linked (N-glycans) and Ser/Thr/Tyr-linked (O-glycans) protein glycosylation between brain regions and sexes in mice. Brain N-glycans were surprisingly less complex in sequence and variety compared to other tissues, consisting predominantly of high-mannose precursors and fucosylated/bisected structures. Most brain O-glycans were unbranched, sialylated O-GalNAc and O-mannose structures. A consistent pattern was observed between regions, and sex differences were minimal compared to those observed in plasma. Brain glycans correlate with RNA expression of their synthetic enzymes, and analysis of all glycosylation genes in humans showed a global downregulation in the brain compared to other tissues. We hypothesize that the restricted repertoire of protein glycans arises from their tight regulation in the brain. These results provide a roadmap for future studies of glycosylation in neurodevelopment and disease. Copy rights belong to original authors. Visit the link for more info

Yup, tonight's show is a goodie. We had the pleasure of chatting with our good buddy, Dakota Mealer, a fine shootin' duck hunter and an even more talented pro dog trainer. We reminisce a little about our Arkansas hunt a few years back (pssst... we should go again!), we learn about how Dakota first started hunting for coons and quail in the Georgia woods and then made his way over to waterfowl. He's been in the game for a long time and is extremely knowledgeable about training and bringing the best out of his dogs. In fact, we spend the bulk of the show comparing/contrasting techniques for force work, t pattern and how to problem solve with a dog. Listen carefully because this is a very educational show, especially if you're looking to fine tune your dog OR go hit up Dakota at Goldhill Retrievers in Auburn, Alabama.

On this episode we had a great time talking with former Michigan Center; Elliott Mealer @ewmealer who shared some great stories from his childhood, HS/Recruitment and his career at Michigan under Coaches RichRod and Brady Hoke and what he's pursuing now. It was a fun deal to record.

Brock Mealer grew up in Wauseon, Ohio, and graduated high school in 2003. He went on to receive his undergraduate at Ohio State University. Brock spent much of his time working at a family construction company, but also enjoyed playing basketball, flying airplanes, and being with family. A tragic car accident on Christmas Eve 2007, in which a 90 year old man ran a stop sign, left Brock paralyzed from the waist down and took the lives of his father and brother's girlfriend, Hollis. He was told by the doctors that he only had a 1% chance of ever walking again. He has persevered through this situation by clinging to faith, and relying on God. Brock started rehabbing with the physical therapists at the hospital for two years after the accident. After that period, Brock was only able to move his hip and quad muscles, which allowed him to walk with the aide of full leg braces and a walker. He was still far from where he wanted to be, and God had a new opportunity awaiting him. Brock's brother, Elliott, played for the University of Michigan football team, allowing Brock to connect with their coaching staff who had offered to work out with him since the accident. After insurance had run out for rehab, he started rigorous workouts with Mike Barwis and the rest of the football strength and conditioning staff at the University of Michigan. Since then he has learned to walk with two canes, and in fall of 2010, Brock completed his goal of leading the Michigan Wolverines onto the field for their home opener accompanied with his mom, Elliott and oldest brother Blake. In December of 2012, he was able to stand at his wedding and walk down the aisle with his bride, Haley, without the assistance of canes. Currently, Brock and his wife are living in Wauseon Ohio, and has plans to help others in their own journey through life's challenges. He continues to work out so he continues to improve, as well as, share his faith, and motivate others to strive for their goals. He has since been able to walk without assistance of any kind, walking up to a half mile at a time. Join the 1% today, and face adversity head on. Brock's message is about persevering against overwhelming odds; no matter what the challenge is.

Violence, Trauma and Touchdowns-- Life in Muck City New Operation GritBox Podcast Episode! Journalist Brian Mealer hops on the podcast to share the story of his time in Belle Glades, Florida. Mealer spent a year with the Glades Central Raiders high school football team. Glades Central is consistently ranked as one of the Top high school football programs in the country. The Belle Glades area has sent an extraordinary number of players to the NFL, including many in the first round! Absolutely incredible considering the chronic poverty, disease, violence, and trauma that cripples players futures before they can ever begin. Amazing Story, I choked up a couple of times in the interview because of the amount of trauma Glades Central players go through and how similar it is to the situation of the football players I coach at Castlemont HS in Oakland. If you are a Fan of young people overcoming adversity then you will love this episode!

March 6, 2013 Dick Wagner’s songs and lead guitar have been featured on more than 200 renowned albums, garnering more than 35 Platinum and Gold records, BMI songwriter awards, Emmys, and numerous prestigious international awards. The Detroit area native helped define an era in rock history by playing lead guitar or writing songs for Alice Cooper, Aerosmith, Kiss, Lou Reed, Peter Gabriel, Meat Loaf, Steve Perry, Etta James, Rod Stewart, Tina Turner, Air Supply, Hall & Oates, Ringo Starr, Guns & Roses, Tori Amos, Frank Sinatra, and dozens of others. Legendary for his groundbreaking collaborations with Alice Cooper, Wagner was musical director, lead guitarist and co-writer of the icon’s biggest hits, including Only Women Bleed, You and Me, and Welcome To My Nightmare. Wagner was Cooper’s right hand man on such groundbreaking albums as, Welcome to My Nightmare, Alice Cooper Goes to Hell, Lace and Whiskey, From the Inside, and DaDa. Together, Cooper and Wagner co-wrote the majority of Alice Cooper’s top selling singles and albums, including more than 50 songs featured on 57 Alice Cooper albums released worldwide. As a teenage musician living an hour north of Detroit Michigan, Dick Wagner enjoyed his first taste of “big time show biz,” when he was asked to play guitar as backup for some of his musical heroes, including Jerry Lee Lewis, Roy Orbison and Little Richard. Great balls of fire! The Michigan public first took notice of Wagner’s talent in 1964, when he formed the band The Bossmen, whose songs likeBaby Boy were #1 radio favorites in Michigan. Soon Wagner was writing and producing for other Michigan bands. In the late 1960s, as Wagner’s work became more complex and featured a harder edge, he formed the wildly popular band, The Frost, recording three Billboard charted albums and drawing enthusiastic crowds to hear songs likeMystery Man and Rock N’ Roll Music.  Wagner moved to New York to form Ursa Major, a seminal rock band and power trio that recorded one, self-titled, defining album for RCA. The raw musical power and artistry of Ursa Major inspired a generation of rock musicians and remains an influential album for today’s musicians. Little known factoid: the original Ursa Major lineup included Wagner on guitar and Billy Joel on keyboards, but dramas in Billy’s personal life intervened and he left the band. Wagner’s guitar virtuosity captured the attention of Lou Reed, and he was invited to play on Lou’s European Berlin tour in 1973. Wagner assembled a powerhouse band including Steve Hunter and Wagner on dueling lead guitars, Prakash John on bass, Pentti Glan on drums and Ray Colcord on keyboards. The live album, Rock N’ Roll Animal, recorded at the Brooklyn Academy of Music, remains one of the most celebrated and influential guitar albums in rock history. Lauded by Rolling Stone, Billboard, and the international press, Rock ‘N’ Roll Animal was described by renowned music critic, Robert Christgau: “This is a live album with a reason for living.” Writer Joe Viglione, in his book, A Study of Lou Reed’s Berlin and Rock N’ Roll Animal Albums, describes the guitar stylings of Hunter and Wagner: “Steve Hunter and Dick Wagner were as potent a duo as Keith Richards and Mick Taylor, and the four make-up the “Golden Era” of both The Rolling Stones and Lou Reed, that period when the recordings were beyond magical…. Lou’s 9/1/73 show still rates as numero uno in my book, for presentation, drama, craftsmanship and sheer rock and roll energy.” In September 2010, nearly 40 years after the release of Rock N’ Roll Animal, Gibson.com honored Dick Wagner and Steve Hunter among the Top 50 Guitar Solos of All Time, for their guitar performances on Intro to Sweet Jane. Amid the prestigious company of Jimi Hendrix, Eric Clapton, Jimmy Page, Jeff Beck and other renowned guitar greats, The Hunter-Wagner team appeared twice, with honors as well for their “ghost” guitar work on Aerosmith’s Train Kept A Rollin from their first platinum selling album, Get Your Wings. In 1972, producer Bob Ezrin brought Wagner in to play lead guitar solos on Alice Cooper’s breakthrough School’s Out album. Uncredited at the time, Wagner’s guitar solos were attributed to the Alice Cooper band. The Cooper-Wagner songwriting collaboration began with I Love the Dead, released on Cooper’s Billion Dollar Babies album.  Cooper and Wagner began a prolific collaboration that spanned several decades. Together, the Cooper-Wagner songwriting team wrote 7 out of 9 of Cooper’s Top 10 hit records. Leaving Lou Reed in 1974, Wagner moved the entire Rock N Roll Animal band over to play with Alice Cooper. The first full album written and recorded by the Cooper-Wagner team, “Welcome to My Nightmare,” spawned a number of Top 10 singles. The Welcome to My Nightmare tour, with a road crew of more than 45 persons, private jets, technical wizardry, theatrical showmanship, and extravagant staging and lighting, became the biggest and highest grossing rock tour of its time. Shock rock was born. With Wagner’s studio walls lined with gold and platinum awards, he writes with the observant eye of a world traveled artist. In the late 1980’s, Wagner was commissioned to write music by the San Antonio Commission on Child Abuse. Wagner’s poignant composition,Remember the Child, painfully reflects the pain of child abuse. Renowned author/lecturer John Bradshaw discovered the song and chose it as his theme for the Emmy nominated PBS special,Homecoming. The song has since become the anthem for tens of thousands who have been scarred by child abuse, and is a catalytic tool used by many therapists in helping their patients access their hidden suffering of childhood trauma. Returning to Michigan in early 1994, Dick formed two bands, The Dick Wagner Band, and The RAW Emotion Rock Orchestra. Both later evolved into Dick Wagner and The Souls Journey Band. In 2005, Wagner relocated to Phoenix to form a new production company,Desert Dreams Productions, LLC with partners, Suzy Michelson and Alex Cyrell, entrepreneurs and founders of Omnimount Systems and Future Primitive Designs.  A full service record label and artist management company, Desert Dreams specializes in “Music Production and Artist Development for the extraordinary Artist.” More than forty years after launching his storied and dynamic career, hit songwriter, guitar virtuoso, producer and arranger, Dick Wagner, remains a brilliant, prolific and vibrant force in American music.  Whether rock, blues, country, jazz or spiritual, Wagner’s songs continue to detail the essence of life. His guitar playing continues to inspire guitarists worldwide, and his production values recall the era of great songs with great melodies and universally accessible lyrics.

He most recently appeared as a guest of Ben Glass on the “Consumer Advocate” show discussing benefits for veterans and social security disability benefits and how his practice allows him to make a difference in the lives of people facing disabilities.  He has also been quoted in USA Today and is listed in Cambridge Who's Who.  Mr. Jackson was  honored by the National Academy of Best Selling Authors with a "Quilly" award for his contribution as a joint author to the Amazon best selling book, "Protect and Defend" Renée Mollan-Masters author of the book " You Are Smarter Than You Think" John Lewis Mealer an Arizona born and raised life-long tinkerer and mechanic turned engineer and developer. After spending 25 years researching Arizona for clean industrial development and having party-politics shut him down time after time, John opted to run for Governor and repair what the parties have destroyed.  John spent years in the construction industry, implementing the use of kit homes made from alternative building materials such as hemp, hay, e-crete and other cost effective solutions for homeowners on a budget. His passion for racing, engineering, and early American automobiles influenced the Mealer Automobile, a prototype 25 years in the making. John holds multiple patents in conjunction with his design, including a non-fossil fuel powered regenerative energy system which has ultimately become the power source for the flagship Mealer Automobile

This episode, Nick's Uncle Larry stops by to put some sass into this podcast! He talks about his crazy neighborhood; talks a little gossip; and we get to know a little about his life, before Stockton. Also, we have another addition of comedian Aj DeMello's Mello Moments. We always enjoy his company and we know you will too. He's hilarious and the world should know it....get ready for Larry Mealer!

Tonight's special guest is JL Mealer from Arizona. He's a developer, engineer, automobile designer, manufacturer and patent holder .. and he's running for office this year as Arizona's next Governor. He's joining us to specifically discuss his passion to deal with several issues close to the NAASCA mission. Mealer wants to take Child Protective Services (currently a Federal Agency) and put it under extremely tight reigns by creating a publicly owned agency in Arizona. During the first week of service, John would demand the exact location of the Federal CPS “homes” (actually prisons). The children would be freed to a safe haven or kept there, but the doors opened so they can come and go as they desire. John also wants to crack down on Human Trafficking which sadly includes many children who at one stage either ran away from an abusive home or were lured into the world of prostitution. He's proposing the crimes for prostitution will be rewritten to consider many of the prostitutes as victims, and the “jons” and pimps as human traffickers and kidnappers. John wants Arizona to build centers that would accommodate trafficking victims, complete with shopping, schooling, job skill training and security with housing for their victims, ensuring that the lure of returning to a life as a victim of traffickers is taken away. Mealer believes that the victims can be self-sufficient, valuable members of the community. He proposes turning currently closed or abandoned buildings, large apartment houses and shopping centers into interim centers, reimbursing owners for use of their property.
