Congress has investigated UFO's for the first time in 50 years, and next on their list is investigating whether or not Frank has been abducted by aliens.

Sarah Boyd - Public Relations SpecialistE-Mail Sarah Boyd has been employed by the Kansas City Police Department for the past 12 years. At the beginning of her career, social media use in policing was uncommon; therefore, she was tasked with developing and building the social media presence of the agency. She has worked with platforms such as Twitter, Facebook, YouTube, Nextdoor, Chief's Blog, and Instagram. Within 10 years, she built a Twitter following of 233,000 in a city of about 475,000 residents. Public Relations Specialist Boyd built this following through years of continued responsiveness and innovative engagement methods. Her development of the “tweet-along” program became a model for departments everywhere to use Twitter to engage with the community.Recognized as a vice-chair on the Public Information Committee for the Major Cities Chiefs Association, she has been invited to share her knowledge and experience at conferences around the United States and to serve in a consulting role for other police departments. She also instructs weekly internal social media training in order to teach social media use and community engagement enhancement to nearly 1,400 sworn officers.Originally a crime and education newspaper reporter, Public Relations Specialist Boyd was drawn to the law enforcement profession due to the observations and stories she received from the community's officers while reporting. She believes that the foundation of trust the agency has built through efforts such as promoting events or posting on social media has prevented the dissension, violence, and rioting experienced in other cities, creating a safer environment for everyone to work, live, and play in.Sgt.

Today on Sojourner Truth: We continue our coverage of the trial of Derek Chauvin, the white police officer who is on trial for the murder of George Floyd. Last week, witnesses for the prosecution made emotional testimony. This week, prosecution witnesses are taking a closer look at police policies and the use of force. Some say prosecution witnesses this week have given an opening for Chauvin's defense. We speak with Karissa Lewis, the National Field Director for the Movement for Black Lives, a coalition of more than 50 groups representing the interests of Black communities across the United States. Also, the crisis in Yemen. On Tuesday, April 6, the Friends Committee on National Legislation, Yemen Relief and Reconstruction Foundation, Demand Progress, and Just Foreign Policy sent a letter to President Joe Biden, calling for an end to the Saudi blockade of Yemen. According to the UN, 400,000 children under the age of 5 could perish from hunger this year without urgent action. In the U.S., a group of activists are participating in a hunger strike to stop U.S. backing of Saudi Arabia in Yemen. Our guest is Iman Saleh, a member of the Yemeni Liberation Movement, which educates and mobilizes Yemenis and all communities for an end to the war on Yemen. The Biden administration is making a major push to encourage people of color to be vaccinated. This, as cases are once again on the rise in certain states. We speak with La-Tanga Hopes, a Media Relations Specialist for FEMA (the Federal Emergency Management Agency). Lastly, our weekly Earth Minute presented by the Global Justice Ecology Project.

A.J. Ali is the Director and Producer of WALKING WHILE BLACK: L.O.V.E. Is The Answer, an award-winning feature-length documentary film improving relations between police and people of color. He coined the acronym L.O.V.E. which stands for: Learn about your community Open your heart to the people in it Volunteer yourself to be part of the solution in their lives and Empower others to do the same. The film won Best Documentary and Audience Favorite at the Garifuna International Film Festival in Los Angeles, California and A.J. was awarded the Platinum Award by the NAACP in Howard County, MD for Contributions to the Community Through the Arts & Entertainment. A.J. is also the Creator, Producer and Host of Wellness 101, a TV game show based in Santa Monica, California. His first film, “Positive Choice,” is credited with saving the national youth soccer program “Soccer in the Streets” from extinction. He was the Creator, Producer and Star of “Good Fellas of Baltimore,” which aired on Fox 45 TV in the Baltimore market. He has produced, written and/or appeared in numerous TV shows, films, commercials and PSA’s. He's a 2019 BMe Vanguard Social Determinants Of Health Fellow, a member of L.A. County District Attorney Jackie Lacey’s Community Justice Panel and an active member of ACTS Church in Santa Monica, California. He is a service-disabled veteran who served honorably in the United States Air Force from 1983 to 1987 as a Journalist and Media Relations Specialist. After experiencing racial profiling by several law enforcement officers in Howard County, MD, A.J. made it his mission to bring awareness and reconciliation between law enforcement and people of color. In addition to directing and producing the film, WALKING WHILE BLACK: L.O.V.E. Is The Answer, A.J. and his team facilitate L.O.V.E. Is The Answer workshops across the country, and have named September 17, 2019 as the Inaugural National Day Of Reconciliation in the U.S.A. In his conversation with us, A.J. sheds light on the everyday issues facing the black community and what we can do to bring an end to the racial profiling and stereotypes that have caused so much tragedy and division in this country. A.J. demonstrates that L.O.V.E. is truly the answer and invites us into the possibility of healing and reconciliation, one community at a time. Key Takeaways If you’re white in America, you can choose whether to engage on matters of race. You don’t have to have ‘the talk’ with your kids about how to engage police officers. If you’re black in America, the issue of race comes up every single day. We have to be literate in another language almost – the language of race. Whenever there is a divide between people, love is always the answer. Reconciliation takes time but it is possible. As a nation we need more civility – where we allow people to mess up, and we are there to help them up and show them a different way. Watch the film. Invite some people over to your house for lunch/dinner and watch the film together.

On this episode of Fault Lines, hosts Garland Nixon and Lee Stranahan discuss how the Trump administration has continued many foreign policy efforts popular with the DC political class that run counter to his campaign rhetoric. Can Trump change course and embrace a new global strategy, or will the current government consensus continue to win out? Guests:Patrick Henningsen - Journalist & Founder of: 21stCenturyWire.com | US Foreign Policy, Global Politics & The Arrest of Jeffrey EpsteinMedea Benjamin - Co-Founder of Code Pink | Venezuela and The History of US Interventions in Central/South AmericaMaram Susli - Geopolitical Analyst | How the Media has Reported on Syria & Jeffrey Epstein's ConnectionsJim Jatras - Government and Media Relations Specialist | The Direction of Trump's Foreign Policy and Comparisons to Past AdministrationsFor the duration of today's show, the hosts are joined in-studio by Patrick Henningsen, Journalist & Founder of 21stCenturyWire.com, to discuss and analyze a variety of news stories and current events. Among these topics will include the direction of US foreign policy under the Trump administration, the political situation in the United Kingdom, and details related to the arrest of Jeffrey Epstein. Venezuela is the latest country in Central/South America in which the United States has been involved in efforts to replace a government currently in power. Medea Benjamin, Co-Founder of Code Pink, returns to the program to discuss recent events in Venezuela, US government support for Juan Guaidó, similarities between this situation and past interventions in the region, and the major influences both inside and outside of the government on the Trump administration's foreign policy.The reporting by the mainstream media in recent years about events in Syria has done a great deal to influence public perception about what has been taking place in the war-torn country. Geopolitical Analyst Maram Susli joins the show to provide analysis about the media's reporting on Syria, the different ethnic groups in the country, and the likelihood that a Kurdish nation becomes a reality. Additionally, Susli gives her take on the recent arrest of Jeffrey Epstein and his connections to prominent individuals including some with ties to intelligence agencies.President Trump campaigned on taking a different approach to foreign policy than his predecessors in the Oval Office, however many of his actual global decisions have continued on a similar trajectory. Jim Jatras, a Government and Media Relations Specialist, joins today's episode of ‘Fault Lines' to discuss the direction of the Trump administration's foreign policy, the similarities and differences from past administrations, the nature of foreign policy bipartisanship among the Washington DC political class, and the likelihood that a large scale international conflict could be on the horizon.
On this episode of Fault Lines, hosts Garland Nixon and Lee Stranahan discuss the likelihood that Congressional Democrats will pursue the impeachment of President Trump and the potential political fallout from such a polarizing move. Is Trump guaranteed protection by the Senate, or is there danger looming that should have the President worried?Guests:Ian Miles Cheong - Managing Editor at HumanEvents.com | 'The Daily Beast' Identifies the Creator of Viral Nancy Pelosi VideoJim Jatras - Government and Media Relations Specialist | History of Impeachment and the Possible Danger to President TrumpDr. Bill Honigman - Emergency Room Doctor & Progressive Healthcare Activist | The California Democratic Convention, 2020 Democratic Candidates & Politics of Impeachment The creator of the viral Nancy Pelosi meme-style video was publicly identified over the weekend by 'The Daily Beast' as a forklift worker and blogger who lives in the Bronx, New York. Ian Miles Cheong, Managing Editor at HumanEvents.com, joins today's show to discuss the significance (or lack there of) about this specific Nancy Pelosi video, the stories that seem to get the political media outraged, the journalistic ethics of revealing this man's identity, and how social media companies are able to do the bidding of certain politicians and powerful interests.Despite Special Counsel Robert Mueller's multi-year investigation failing to charge President Trump with any crime, it seems quite possible that Congressional Democrats will pursue impeachment against the sitting President. Jim Jatras, a Government and Media Relations Specialist, returns to the program to talk about the past history of Presidential impeachment, parallels between Trump and former President Richard Nixon's political situations, if Republicans should be concerned about a possible impeachment, and how 2020 election politics are playing into the calculations being made by both Democrats and Republicans.Over the weekend, California Democrats held their 2019 State Convention which was attended by several prominent Democratic 2020 Presidential candidates, however former Vice President Joe Biden was notably not in attendance. Progressive Healthcare Activist Dr. Bill Honigman was at the San Francisco-based event, and he joins Garland and Lee on today's show to talk about how the different candidates who showed up were received by the crowd, the significance of Joe Biden being a no-show, and the main concerns expressed by grassroots activists who were in attendance. Additionally, the hosts talk with Dr. Honigman about the possibility of impeachment for President Trump and why he supports Democrats pursuing this action.
On this episode of Fault Lines, hosts Garland Nixon and Lee Stranahan discuss how increasing online censorship is a danger to those on both sides of the political spectrum willing to challenge establishment points of view. How is this trend influencing politics/society, and why should those celebrating the silencing of their opponents think again?Guests:Ian Miles Cheong - Journalist who Covers Media, Politics & Culture | The Media's Obsession with Trying to Silence Anti-Establishment VoicesJim Jatras - Government and Media Relations Specialist | Trump's Foreign Policy Advisors and Escalating Tensions with IranJim Hoft - Founder of TheGatewayPundit.com | Online Censorship, Ukrainian Election Interference & The Focus of Establishment DemocratsCaleb Maupin - Journalist & Political Analyst | Historical Reference for the Current Situation in Venezuela The desire of the elite ruling class to maintain control over political discourse continues to become more evident as online censorship increases towards individuals and platforms who challenge establishment narratives. Journalist and Writer Ian Miles Cheong joins today's show to discuss some of the recent incidents of "deplatforming" on social media, how this trend threatens independent journalism, and Silicon Valley's power and influence with regards to news/politics. Yet again, tensions between the United States and Iran have been ramped up, and the US has sent an aircraft carrier, the USS Abraham Lincoln, to the Middle East. Jim Jatras, a Government and Media Relations Specialist, returns to the program to talk about the current US-Iran dynamic, the nature of Sunni-Shia conflicts in the region, and how Russian or Chinese support for Iran could change the equation for the US and potential military action.While some in the political world celebrate the online censorship of their opponents, this trend has become a slippery slope where almost any dissenting voice could be targeted in the future. Jim Hoft, Founder of TheGatewayPundit.com, joins Garland and Lee to discuss this latest wave of silencing speech on the internet, the largely ignored story of Ukrainian Election Interference, and why many establishment Democrats are focusing on perceived scandals over actual policy proposals.For the final segment, the hosts are joined by Journalist & Political Analyst Caleb Maupin for a conversation about Venezuela and some historical reference for the current situation. What level of support does Venezuelan President Maduro have from both ordinary citizens and the military, how have the Obama and Trump administrations approached Venezuela differently, what are some of the similarities between foreign interventions in Syria and Venezuela, and what role is the international energy market playing with regards to how foreign countries are intervening in Venezuela?

Tony Bizjak, the long-time transportation writer for the Sacramento Bee, recently wrote an article and was the driver in the publication's online video about GIG. It's the new on-demand, one-way rental car service available in Sacramento and other select cities. Bizjak is the first of our two guests on Episode #83 of The Weekly Driver Podcast. Our second guest is Mike Blasky, the Media Relations Specialist of AAA for Northern California, Nevada and Utah. He's based in Walnut Creek, California. GIG, the one-way car rental service, recently made its Sacramento debut. GIG (Get In, Go) is working in conjunction with AAA on the project. GIG relies on the Toyota Prius hybrids in San Francisco Bay Area, but the Sacramento region is using all-electric Chevrolet Bolts. An estimated 260 Bolts will be positioned around Sacramento's main neighborhoods and central district of the city by the end of April Bizjak shares his experience using the GIG app to find the closest vehicle and then takes it for a drive. He also explains the different options of rental time frames and their corresponding payments. Sacramento is the first city selected by Electrify America for its investment in electric vehicle usage. Blasky explains AAA's involvement in GIG, details of the program, how the public has reacted to the project. The Weekly Driver encourages and appreciates feedback from our listeners.

Content creation is critical to an effective hospital marketing plan.

Guests Joyce Angell, Jonathan Dugas, and Amy Nouri talk about wearable fitness devices and how they can be beneficial to living a healthier life.

Why is it important to know how active you are each day? Our guests discuss these questions and more. Joyce Angell is a professor in the Human Performance Department at Concordia University Chicago. Jonathan Dugas is Clinical Director at The Vitality Group. Amy Nouri is Media Relations Specialist for Fitness for Garmin International. Today’s program is an encore from October 17, 2016.
Media and getting noticed in the media is a hard game to crack. However my guest today, on the Steve Jobs inspired Join Up Dots free podcast interview is a lady who spent over a decade working in an environment that ultimately left her looking for a new future (although with the media skills to make that future happen) Starting her career at News 12 The Bronx after leaving Ohio University with a BA in Public Affairs and Journalism she worked her way up through the ranks in television. She performed the roles of Reporter, Producer, Host, Web Editor, Fill-In Anchor, Media Relations Specialist for ABC News, CBS News, NBC News the list goes on and on. All the time her confidence was soaring, her experience was becoming broader and broader and her future was waiting. As she says "I worked as a TV reporter for a decade who was pitched numerous times a day by publicists. Most of the time, I didn't read more than two sentences of what the “PR person” sent. What they sent was too long, didn't have anything to do with what I covered, wasn't newsworthy, didn't relate to the geographical area I covered, and the list goes on. They all wanted a free commercial for their client. Because of this, I decided to leave the news business and do that job - but better. And she has certainly done that, becoming the owner of Media Maven, a full service public relations firm providing services in: Media Relations, Media Training, Still Photography, Video Production, Social Media, Writing, Blogging, Event & On-Air Hosting, Branding, Website Design, Graphic Design, and Search Engine Optimization. If you want to grow your personal brand in the right way, then this is the place you come. So did she need every bit of her ten years experience to get to where she is today, or could she have cut corners here and there? And what is the scariest bit of becoming a business owner, the doing, or in fact the thinking of everything that you need to do? Well lets find out as we bring onto the show to start joining up dots with the one and only Christina Nicholson Show Highlights During the show we discussed such weighty topics with Christina Nicholson such as: How she managed to hold back from kissing David Beckham, and why she feels that all British David's are super hot!! Why it is so important to be as specific with your conversations with your customers as you could possibly be...the more niche the rich you will get. Why it is so important to understand the nuts and bolts of everything you do in your life, before delegating that part of the business to someone else. and lastly…. Christina recalls the moment that changed her life and that was the moment when she decided to stop caring what people thought about her. Total game changer

Episode 95...and on our fifth episode from the new studio, we had a pretty packed room with guests covering all sorts of topics. Open data in the city of Detroit and an upcoming hackathon to find better ways to use it. Updates from our friends at Detroit Beer Press about their latest issue. A check in nearly two years later with Batch Brewing Company on how things are going downtown. A look at the state of the Detroit tech scene from the eyes of someone still in school and breaking into the industry. Don't forget you can get 10% off Squarespace's offerings by using discount code IT during the checkout process: http://www.squarespace.com/, and you can try QuickBooks for self-employed tryselfemployed.com/it And so, so much more... After our 1995 themed intro came to a close, our opening segment kicked off with a recap of our last event and information about our upcoming events, the depressing information that both The Goonies and Ferris Bueller's Day Off are now both thirty years old, the hilarious (to us) story about a member of ISIS posting a selfie that led to an airstrike less than 24 hours later, a very concerning tale about how the Red Cross spent over $500 million in Haiti after the terrible earthquakes there...and yet somehow managed to only build six houses, Gamestop's purchase of ThinkGeek's parent company, our lovely new kegerator stocked with the Scurvy Dan Blood Orange IPA from Falling Down Beer Company and more. In our second segment, we dove in with our guests David Lingholm, the Director of Digital Media and Community Engagement for the City of Detroit, and Erin Sommerville, Media Relations Specialist for Automation Alley. There's a hackathon coming up this weekend, #Hack4Detroit, that's looking to find some better uses for the massive amounts of data that the city has accumulated over the years, and there's some decent prize money for those who can help. Designers, coders, and even just folks with ideas are welcome...but the signup cutoff is Wednesday, so hurry: http://www.automationalley.com/Events/Calendar/Event-Detail.aspx?uniqueid=16840 In segment three, we checked in with our friends Courtney Ochab, Ian Burk and Tony Barchok from Detroit Beer Press and Stephen Roginson of Batch Brewing Company. Batch Brewing was on waaaaaaaaay back in episode 10 of our show when they were a finalist (and eventual winner!) of the Hatch Detroit competition in 2013, and they've come a long way since then. Not only are they open, but they're in full swing with production of a number of great beers, have a solid kitchen, and have a monthly "feel good tap" where a portion of the proceeds go to a local organization. Can't beat that. Detroit Beer Press isn't doing to shabby either, with their latest issue in breweries, distilleries and locations throughout the area...which hypothetically might include another IT in the D style rant. Updates about their Howler Club Membership program and more await your ears. In our fourth and final segment (no, still no infamous fifth segments in the new studio as of yet), we talked with Kevin Hill, a local guy still in college at RIT, and working his way into the Detroit tech scene. We met Kevin at our Hopcat event back in May, and absolutely had to have him join us in-studio to continue that conversation on air. He's got some great perspectives on how things look from his point of view - what he sees going well, going wrong, what works, what doesn't, and just a great take on things in general. And that brought us to a close. Tune in next week as we're joined by Right Brain Networks to talk about DevOps among other topics, Make Moore Media to talk film and production, and Yum Village to talk about their group's organization and event. Don't forget you can get 10% off Squarespace's offerings by using discount code IT during the checkout process: http://www.squarespace.com/, and you can try QuickBooks for self-employed tryselfemployed.com/it Again,
