Podcasts about Meiners

Sen. Rand Paul spoke with Terry Meiners on WHAS to catch up on current events in Iran and Washington. Is the new Iranian regime not "radicalized" as President Trump claims? Trust and verify is still the order of the day when dealing with any Iran regime.Meiners also asked about Rand Paul's communication with his hospitalized colleague Mitch McConnell and his primary losing friend Thomas Massie.

Congressman Morgan McGarvey (KY-03) spoke with Terry Meiners on WHAS Radio a day after going 4-4 in the Congressional Softball Game. McGarvey's Democrats were pounded by the Republicans but the Kentucky congressman earned an MVP award for his batting prowess.Rep. McGarvey and Meiners discussed the latest on the Iran war and movement from the Trump Justice Department to tighten its influence over state elections. Many conservatives are suspicious of the elongated mail-in vote counting process following recent California primary elections, casting doubt on the accuracy of election results. 

In Australia, no wedding or school dance is complete without the Nutbush, Australia's unofficial national dance. The Nutbush – a simple line dance to the song “Nutbush City Limits,” by Ike and Tina Turner – has become as stereotypically Australian as kangaroos, boomerangs, and Vegemite.And yet, hardly anyone outside of Australia even knows the Nutbush exists. Here at Decoder Ring, we certainly didn't – until we started getting emails from Australians asking us to investigate its origins. How did an American song become the soundtrack for an Australian national tradition? Who invented the iconic steps, and why does every Australian know them?Our producer Max Freedman put on his dancing shoes to get some answers. The global, century-spanning story of the Nutbush involves Australia, Tennessee, Denmark, primary schools, gay discos, and demonstrates that even the goofiest cultural touchstones can go surprisingly deep.In this episode you'll hear from culture journalists David Mack and Angus Kidman; Nutbush researchers Panizza Allmark and Jon Stratton; dance historians Erica Okamura and Richard Powers; Dr. Fiona Chatteur, Jeremy Santolin, and Brian Kerr.This episode was written and produced by Max Freedman and edited by Evan Chung, our supervising producer.

WHAS Radio's Terry Meiners has four brilliant children. Simon T Meiners appeared on KET's Kentucky Tonight as part of a panel of historians discussing Kentucky's 234th birthday.Oh, the tales Simon can tell! We bet you've never heard this one about a future famous guy shoveling out the area now called the Portland Canal along Louisville's riverfront!

Regenerative agriculture is a topic that is gaining momentum today, but for Brandon Meiners and his family, it started long before it became mainstream. Meiners shares how his father helped pioneer cover crops across the Midwest and the challenges that came with advocating for regenerative practices early on.In this episode, Meiners discusses his journey into agriculture and how he became director of agronomy at Midwestern BioAg. Although he originally attended college for criminal justice, he realized he missed the relationships, stories, and connection to farmers that he grew up around. After his father faced cancer and he reevaluated his own path, Meiners returned to agriculture and found a passion for business development and helping farmers better understand nutrient density and regenerative agriculture practices.Connect with the AgWarriors Podcast across social media: Instagram: @ag.warriorsYouTube: @AgWarriorsPodcastFacebook: @AG WarriorsTiktok: @ag_warriors

Representative Brett Guthrie (KY-02) checks in with Terry Meiners on WHAS for a Tax Day humble brag as Republicans upgrade tax advantages for those who earn tips or overtime hours. Also, the Big Beautiful Bill offers no tax on Social Security, Trump accounts for kids, enhanced child tax credits, no tax on auto loan interest, and more.Rep. Guthrie also talked about the nearly vacant car battery plants in Glendale, Kentucky and the vision moving forward after Ford downsized the project.Meiners also asked about the Trump strategy in Iran and around the Strait of Hormuz.

Kentucky's Republican state senators and representatives will honor retiring Senator Mitch McConnell, the longest serving Senate party leader in U.S. history, with a statue in Frankfort's Capitol Rotunda.WHAS Radio's Terry Meiners discusses McConnell's impact on Kentucky prominence and abundant federal funding - "punching above our weight" in the senator's words - leading to this honor.Democrats, most notably, Governor Andy Beshear, are not thrilled with the idea of honoring McConnell alongside statues of Abraham Lincoln, Henry Clay, and Ephraim McDowell.Meiners unpacks the drama of a supermajority of Republicans laughing while floundering Democrats (who've "lost the plot" according to Rahm Emmanuel) kick and scream at the inevitable addition honoring McConnell's legacy.Will they ultimately pass a law requiring Beshear to salute the McConnell statue every time he walks out of his office?

"Schoolboy" Sam Frey, former next door neighbor of WHAS Radio's Terry Meiners, has been sharing his sports prognostications on Terry's radio and TV shows for nearly two decades. Meiners claims that Sam never misses on his predictions, although history begs to differ.Nonetheless, Sam's deep knowledge of sports and team rosters are valuable aids in helping anyone fill out their brackets during college basketball's high holy days every March.

Alan welcomes Dr. Zach Meiners, co-host of the Very Clinical podcast and restorative dentist extraordinaire, back to the Very Dental podcast. They dive deep into their shared passion for glass ionomer (GI) restorative materials. Sparked by Alan's recent solo episode on using glass ionomer for groove restorations the guys talk GI in depth.  Key Takeaways Glass Ionomer (GI) as a Primary Restorative: Both doctors advocate for GI (like Fuji 9 or Equia) as a legitimate, permanent restorative material for specific classes of restorations, moving past its traditional use as only a provisional or base. Ideal Clinical Applications: GI is highly effective for: Class I, III, and V restorations, particularly on posterior teeth where aesthetics are less critical. Geriatric and Pediatric patients due to its forgiving nature, minimal technique sensitivity, and fluoride release. Core Build-ups: Zach considers it his main build-up material, noting its reliable adhesion and stability against being pulled out by temporary crowns. Crown Margin Repairs. Material Benefits: GI offers several advantages over traditional resin or amalgam: No Post-Operative Sensitivity and Minimal Shrinkage. Forgiving Technique in less-than-ideal isolation situations, sticking particularly well to dentin. Continued Hardening for months after the initial set, leading to excellent longevity and a surprisingly low failure rate. Efficiency and Cost: While the initial cost of GI is relatively high, the efficiency gained from eliminating the need for separate etching and bonding steps (using only a cavity conditioner provided in the kit) and the speed of placement makes it a cost-effective choice in terms of time and materials. Placement and Setting: Placement Technique: For occlusal restorations (like in grooves), Alan recommends over-squirting the material and using a moist, gloved finger to push it into the grooves, or using an anti-stick agent like Stick Free for metal instruments. Accelerating Set: Though not a light-cure material, applying the curing light can accelerate the chemical setting reaction via heat, cutting the two-and-a-half-minute set time down to about 90 seconds. The GI "Dream": The doctors agree that a future GI material with the strength to reliably handle Class II restorations would revolutionize the entire direct restorative market, given GI's unique benefits.  Some links from the show: Fuji IX Fuji Equia Forte    Join the Very Dental Facebook group using the password "Timmerman," Hornbrook" or "McWethy," "Papa Randy," "Lipscomb" or "Gary!"

Schools have become sites of policing and surveillance that mirror the criminal legal system. To address this, we need to understand what our guest calls the “school-to-prison nexus,” the intersecting web of racist, carceral systems that criminalize our youth.We discuss the history of organizing against the school-to-prison pipeline and how the call for “Counselors Not Cops” needs an abolitionist framework to succeed. We also highlight important wins from decades-long fights like the recent vote to end the school resource office (SRO) program in Chicago Public Schools.Episode Guest:Erica Meiners is a writer, educator and organizer. Their recent books include For the Children?
