As one of 11 remaining Pearl Harbor Survivors, Earl "Chuck" Kohler was honored at the PBS Annual Memorial Day event held on May 24th, 2026. On Dec 7th, 1941, Chuck was working at the PBY Flying Boat base on Pearl Harbor where he was one of the few who were able to fight back against the Japanese raiders. He would continue fighting the Japanese in the Pacific Theatre supporting the deadly "Black Cats" PBY squadrons that decimated Japanese shipping and warships.Listen in as Chuck tells us about his recollection of events that very few still alive today are able to do!

Bonus Episode: The GOAT of competitive eating, Joey Chestnut, joins us live from Charlotte Motor Speedway on Memorial Day race weekend. Joey pulls back the curtain on what it actually takes to eat 70+ hot dogs in 10 minutes: the cleanses, the jaw training, the rhythm, the film study, and why it's a lot more like racing than people realize.We cover the 76 hot dog world record, the time he grabbed a protestor mid-contest and still won, the Kobayashi rivalry, the "999" baseball challenge, his first-ever win (deep-fried asparagus, somehow), and what the end of a career looks like for the best to ever do it. He also tries a Gleezy dog for the first time and weighs in on the great ketchup debate.Equal parts hilarious, surprising, and oddly inspiring.

The 16th episode of the Lead with Empower podcast, recorded just before Memorial Day weekend, features hosts Dan and Zack discussing the nuances of designing team-building experiences. Determining Difficulty Levels Finding the "sweet spot" for a group's challenge level is described as an art that requires significant inquiry during the sales and design process. Key factors used to gauge the appropriate level of difficulty include: ● Group Size: Larger groups often face more internal conflict due to "too many cooks in the kitchen". To manage this, facilitators may break a large group of 50 into smaller lanes of eight or nine people to ensure everyone remains engaged. ● Physical Exertion: Programs are tailored to the group's daily activity levels; for example, a high school sports team would receive a more physically demanding program than a corporate group that is typically sedentary. ● Age and Wiring: Adults tend to overthink and strategize extensively before acting, whereas younger participants often dive into problems immediately without a set strategy. ● Desired Outcomes: Facilitators ask whether a client wants pure fun (an outing), professional skill development, or a mix of both to determine the program's structure. Stages of Group Development The hosts reference Bruce Tuckman's research on group dynamics to explain how they adjust activities based on a team's current stage: ● Forming: New groups with social barriers are given low-complexity icebreakers (e.g., favorite hobbies) rather than deep personal sharing. ● Storming: Teams experiencing power struggles or conflict are given collaborative tasks without competition to avoid creating further division. ● Norming: As people settle into roles, activities with clearly defined, different roles are used to highlight how individual strengths contribute to team success. ● Performing: Groups that are "firing on all cylinders" are given more challenging levels to prevent complacency. Facilitation Tactics ● Frontloading: To maintain trust, facilitators inform groups at the start if there are multiple tiers of difficulty or if an activity might be modified to build momentum after a struggle. ● Managing Mistakes: Facilitators use "nickel and dime" rule enforcement as a tool for difficult or uncooperative groups. Conversely, for groups showing high effort and positive growth, facilitators may overlook "hustle mistakes" near the end of a program to ensure the experience concludes with a sense of accomplishment. ● Core Objectives: Every program aims to achieve three things: Engagement, Challenge, and Accomplishment. Episode Timeline: ● Never Quit Mentality (03:01): The speakers emphasize giving 100% effort until the "clock hits zero," using the New York Knicks' historic 22-point comeback as a prime example. ● The Difficulty "Sweet Spot" (06:51): Facilitators must find the right challenge level; too hard leads to participants giving up, while too easy results in "dead air" and disengagement. ● Inquiry-Based Sales (08:22): A program's success starts during the sales process by asking if a client wants pure fun, a mix of learning, or intensive skill development. ● Large Group Friction (13:10): Groups of 30 often take twice as long as groups of five because "too many cooks in the kitchen" can cause members to work against each other. ● Adult vs. Youth Problem Solving (16:01): Adults frequently overthink and delay action to find a "perfect" answer, whereas youth often dive into tasks without any plan or strategy. ● Tuckman's Stages of Development (20:56): Facilitators use the four stages—forming, storming, norming, and performing—to assess group dynamics and choose appropriate activities. ● Avoiding Storming Competition (25:13): For groups in the "storming" phase of conflict, facilitators avoid competitive tasks that could "feed the fire" of existing internal power struggles. ● The Power of "Frontloading" (28:17): To maintain trust, leaders should inform groups ahead of time if an activity has multiple tiers or harder levels rather than using a "sneak attack" challenge. ● Strategic Rule Enforcement (32:16): Facilitators may overlook minor "hustle mistakes" for engaged teams but strictly enforce rules (a "nickel and dime" approach) for difficult or argumentative groups. ● The Ultimate Goal (35:16): Team building's purpose is for participants to leave feeling positive and confident, ready to apply lessons to their real-world environments. ● Selecting a Partner (39:00): Organizations should choose partners who ask deep questions about group outcomes and physical exertion levels rather than offering a "cookie-cutter" approach.

Episode 383: JOE LOBEL "The UK's Wordplay King & The Battle of Content vs. Craft" In this episode of @ROADpodcast, the crew sits down with UK-based DJ and wordplay innovator @Joe.Lobel to unpack the complexities of building a career in the modern digital age. The conversation begins at (01:10) with Lobel's journey from the UK to the US for his Memorial Day run, his perspective on the UK nightlife scene, and the process of securing a US work visa. The discussion shifts to how a "Hip Hop DJ" is defined in the UK before moving to the disconnect between viral social media success and actual ticket sales (09:10). Joe details his technical approach to video production, leading to a broader debate on whether modern DJs are prioritizing content creation over their core musical craft, a theme further explored regarding the rise of DJs with limited skills (21:30). The dialogue turns to the reality of creator burnout and the compulsion to film every moment, and the group reflects on the "perpetual machine" of social media and whether one can truly step away from it (33:00). Joe discusses his scheduling tactics and the risk of pigeonholing himself, followed by a conversation about his reputation for wordplay transitions and the challenge of moving beyond that specific niche (39:55). The episode continues with thoughts on managing copycats in the industry and a discussion on rebrand strategies and equipment (57:01). Finally, the episode concludes with a look at how tech companies are influencing the DJ party landscape with events like @playgrndseries (1:08:01).

I recently lost one of the greatest loves of my life, my soul dog Huxley. He passed really unexpectedly on Memorial Day. He was 11 and a half. He was fine that morning. He ate breakfast, he cuddled with us, he sat in the sun while we were at the pool. By that evening, he was gone. He had massive internal bleeding and we had no idea anything was wrong until his gums went pale and we were racing across town to an emergency vet that Memorial Day night. What followed was four hours of the most tender goodbyes I've ever experienced, and then one of the hardest weeks of my life. I've been thinking a lot about what it means to grieve fully, to actually feel it instead of pushing it down and numbing it. I did that in my early 20s after a bad heartbreak, drowned myself in alcohol, and missed the whole thing. I shoved it down and it just kept showing up later as triggers and pain I hadn't processed. This time I felt all of it. The shock, the devastation, the beauty, the signs he's been sending us since. I'm also sharing something I found in my journal from February, a few months before he died, where I had written about him without knowing what was coming. And what it made me realize about presence and about what being alcohol-free actually means at the deepest level. IN THIS EPISODE How we lost Huxley and what those four hours of goodbye looked like The three things that determine how deep grief hits, and why losing a dog child can undo you completely What I did differently this time compared to grieving through alcohol in my early 20s, and what that cost me back then The signs Huxley has been sending us since he passed, and why I'm not calling any of them coincidences What I found in my journal from February that I wrote without knowing what was coming Why being alcohol-free is really just another way of saying you are awake to your life What alcohol actually takes from you, and why you feel the bad but miss all the good when you numb LINKS/RESOURCES MENTIONED Apply to be our next Thought Leader to master premium selling and thought leader positioning to publish your book and deliver your keynote onstage.

This week, Sonia and Jessica are back to discuss the glamorous reality of being women in their 40s—which apparently includes hormones doing whatever they want, kids asking the same question 47 times in a row, and spending weeks planning a birthday party that lasts approximately three hours. The conversation bounces from Memorial Day weather pivots and kitty-cat-themed birthday party planning to the emotional rollercoaster of raising strong-willed little humans. They share real parenting moments, the chaos of toddler independence, dance recital memories, children's museum meltdowns, zoo adventures, and the universal experience of trying to make family memories while secretly wondering if everyone is about to lose their minds. Along the way, they discuss the reality of perimenopause, why "sexymenopause" might be one of the greatest marketing campaigns of all time, viral social media surprises, fast-food emergencies, and the emotional support Chick-fil-A sauce that got them through it all. Because motherhood after 35 isn't always graceful—but it is usually entertaining. Topics include: ✨ Kitty-cat birthday party planning and execution ✨ Toddler independence, emotions, and power struggles ✨ Dance recitals, zoo trips, and children's museum adventures ✨ The reality of perimenopause and hormonal chaos ✨ Funny parenting wins (and failures) ✨ Family outings that almost go off the rails ✨ Postpartum perseverance and motherhood resilience ✨ Why sometimes surviving the day is the victory Resources & Links: Geriatric Mamas Website Montessori Education Tips for Potty Training Dance Recitals and Costumes Inspiration Connect with the Geriatric Mamas: Instagram Facebook Email us at hello@geriatricmamas.com Want to be a guest?

Dr. Christine Cocchiola is a social worker, professor, researcher, and internationally recognized advocate on coercive control and abuse. But even Christine didn't realize she was being stalked. Her ex always seemed to know where she was, who she was with, and even details about her finances. Whenever she questioned it, she was told she was imagining things. After leaving the relationship, Christine discovered her phone had been hacked, her car had been tracked, and she had been monitored for years. Today, Christine shares how stalking and surveillance were hidden behind years of gaslighting—and how she finally uncovered the truth.

Memorial Day usually means a day of rememberance, rest, and relaxation for most. However, on Memorial Day weekend in 2000, a group of Bamberg and Orangeburg County residents had another idea. Local banks were all closed and they saw this as an opprotunity to target on business owner in Denmark, SC and make a "withdrawal".

The Enhanced Games took place over Memorial Day weekend in Las Vegas, Nevada. The founders boasted they were making history and redefining what the human body is capable of. What was the evidence for this? Performance-enhancing drugs and bio-hacking in the name of becoming ‘superhuman.’ In this briefing, Kelly explains why stories like this matter and are valuable opportunities to talk to kids about what it means to be human. Kids are bombarded with messages to ‘enhance themselves’ with everything from skin care rituals to looksmaxxing. It is critical for parents to start this conversation.

Beef prices remain elevated across the United States as cattle supplies stay historically tight while consumer demand for protein continues to grow, according to meat industry expert Darren Hill of J.D. Food. During a recent AgNet News Hour interview, Hill discussed the factors driving beef prices, changing consumer habits, and emerging animal health concerns impacting the livestock sector. Hill explained that the U.S. cattle herd remains at relatively low levels, limiting beef availability even as demand continues to increase. He noted that consumer interest in high-protein diets has helped fuel strong demand for beef products despite higher retail prices. “We're still struggling as an industry with the cattle herd,” Hill said. “The herd remains extremely low and demand is exceedingly high.” The beef industry remains highly concentrated, with four major beef packers accounting for roughly 85 percent of the nation's beef processing capacity. Hill said that market concentration, combined with tight cattle supplies, has contributed to continued price pressure throughout the supply chain. While beef prices remain high, Hill believes consumers still view beef as a worthwhile purchase, particularly when preparing meals at home. He noted that many families compare the cost of cooking steaks or hamburgers at home against restaurant prices and continue to find value in beef products. At the same time, analysts expect some consumers to shift toward lower-cost protein options such as pork and chicken during the summer grilling season. Memorial Day marked the unofficial start of grilling season, and retailers are already seeing increased protein sales as families spend more time outdoors and gather for barbecues and holiday celebrations. Hill also highlighted the role of innovation within the beef industry. Restaurants and retailers are increasingly utilizing alternative beef cuts that offer strong flavor and tenderness at lower price points. Cuts such as the flat iron steak have gained popularity as chefs seek creative ways to provide value while maintaining quality dining experiences. Another issue drawing attention is the recent discovery of New World screwworm in a calf in South Texas. Hill said federal officials responded quickly by implementing quarantines, movement controls, surveillance efforts, and sterile fly release programs designed to prevent the pest from spreading. He emphasized that the situation currently poses no threat to consumers and that the U.S. food supply remains safe. Freight costs continue to be another major factor influencing food prices. Hill noted that rising transportation expenses affect nearly every stage of the supply chain, from moving cattle and feed to delivering finished products to retailers and foodservice operators. Looking ahead to the summer grilling season and America's upcoming 250th anniversary celebrations, Hill expects strong demand for beef and other proteins to continue. While prices may remain elevated, he believes consumers will continue making room in their budgets for backyard barbecues and family gatherings.
Two weeks ago, I talked about the steps I'm taking to build something more resilient at Creek Road Pottery — the garden, the wood kiln, the solar system, the treadle wheel. Today is the field report.

Send us Fan MailFifty thousand people evacuate, rumors fly, and the search for the latest information becomes frantic. During the Memorial Day weekend chemical incident in Orange County, California, residents in Garden Grove and Anaheim needed more than breaking news; they needed clear, trusted, practical directions they could use immediately. Enter Victor Tran, a 27-year-old web designer and software engineer who voluntarily created a crisis website to aggregate emergency information and updates. Through some busy and sleepless nights, Victor built it into a real-time resource hub for the community, including translations into seven languages, at ggspill.com. We unpack the crisis communications problem that shows up in almost every emergency: too many sources, too little time, and a constant drip of misinformation. Victor walks through how he vetted resources, organized essentials like food, transportation, housing, mutual aid, and services, and designed the site to reduce mental load for people who were displaced and exhausted. We also dig into how he pulled official updates from the Orange County Fire Authority into a single place so residents could keep situational awareness without chasing posts across platforms.

In this episode, we discuss the latest labor market releases, deteriorating consumer balance sheets, and Friday's decline in equity markets. While payroll growth exceeded expectations and the unemployment rate held steady at 4.3%, the composition of employment gains, the timing of the Memorial Day holiday, and several other details within the report continue to suggest a less encouraging picture of the economy. Meanwhile, consumer debt continued to rise, with revolving credit balances, much of which consists of credit card borrowing, increasing at an annualized rate of 10% in April after rising 9% in March. These figures are particularly troubling given that the personal savings rate remains near historic lows and credit card delinquencies have climbed to levels not seen since the Global Financial Crisis. Consumers appear increasingly reliant on borrowing to sustain spending, a dynamic that has rarely ended well. Friday's sell off in equity markets served as a reminder of the fragility underlying the recent rally. Weaker than expected revenue guidance from Broadcom, renewed concerns about inflation, and rising expectations that the Federal Reserve may be forced to raise interest rates before year end all contributed to the decline.
Welcome back to the shop, friends. We're kicking things off with the bizarre mystery of the YouTube algorithm—specifically how a 40-minute, 10-out-of-10 stinker of a garage upgrade video miraculously resurrected itself after a long Memorial Day weekend Deric scored a 16-speed Central Machinery drill press at a yard sale for 30 bucks, which naturally leads to us brainstorming how to custom-paint it like a WWII bomber. We debate the dreaded "puzzle moment" of a project—that soul-crushing point where you solve the complex part and instantly lose all motivation to finish the tedious sanding. Grab a cold beverage, ignore the neighbors creeping up your driveway to ask what you're doing, and let's get into it.Got questions?

Hundreds of detained people launched a hunger and labor strike at Delaney Hall in Newark, New Jersey, over Memorial Day weekend to protest inhumane conditions at the immigration detention facility run by the for-profit company GEO Group. Protesters flocked to the scene to echo detainees' pleas for release and better conditions — and were met with brutal tactics from federal, local, and state law enforcement officials, who beat, tear-gassed, and arrested protesters.“Detainees are raising that they have no access to quality medical care, that they're not getting needed medications,” Andrea Sáenz, a former federal appellate immigration judge who was fired by the Trump administration last year, tells The Intercept Briefing. “They don't have enough food to eat. The food that they are getting is spoiled. They're facing hostility and harassment and violence from the guards.” This week on the podcast, host Jessica Washington speaks to Sáenz and Aaron Reichlin-Melnick, a senior policy fellow at the American Immigration Council, about the conditions at the 1,000-bed jail and other detention centers across the country. The Trump administration has restricted members of Congress and state officials from oversight of federal immigration detention centers. “ICE doesn't want people to see the way that they're treating human beings in these facilities,” says Sáenz. Intercept reporter Noah Hurowitz, who covers federal law enforcement and immigration, was on the scene at Delaney Hall on Monday. He describes the violence that erupted outside of the facility between protesters and law enforcement officers.“The ICE agents on the scene were quite willing to use violence at times against protesters,” says Hurowitz. “But from everything I saw, the Newark and New Jersey police were much more indiscriminate with their violence and much more willing to attack outright and fire tear gas and really put people in danger.”Reichlin-Melnick says that the Trump administration's war on immigrants should concern everyone. “We're seeing every government database being turned into a tool of the mass deportation state, and that is something that impacts all Americans,” he adds, “because you cannot carry out a mass deportation of 4 percent of the U.S. population without fundamentally transforming the United States into more of a police state.” For more, listen to the full conversation of The Intercept Briefing on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, YouTube or wherever you listen.Keep our investigations free and fearless at theintercept.com/join.

Patriotic Bob loves Memorial Day so much that he researched who first created it. | At Bobby's gig in New Orleans he was greeted by busty fans and a rat that ran across the stage. | Kevin Hart defends his roast by taking both sides. Crack Amico continues to produce brilliant music and his track is all about Chelsea Handler and her hypocrisy. D.L. Hughley's producer is really good at A.I. images and the Bonfire crew is not. So Jay verbally makes his A.I. prompts with no visual. *To hear the full show to go www.siriusxm.com/bonfire to learn more!

This week, we are off for Memorial Day week but bringing you the rest of last week's recap: I took Ben to an all-day chess tournament which was a wee-bit brutal...then caved on my plan to leave before the participation medal ceremony (which activated the mom network!) Then, I had a disastrous trip to the DMV trying to renew my license. Story developing, but I can tell you there was no 2005 incident in Atlanta, okay?!

The Memorial Day break is over and the band is getting back together. Dave and Cody dig into "The Heart Is a Lonely Hunter" — the sixth episode of From Season 4. Jade and Boyd argue their way through the entire first act. Donna has a heart attack at the most suspicious possible moment. Sophia cuts open her own hand and slips her blood into Henry's drink. Ethan and Victor draw their monsters side by side. The team finally starts sharing information with each other (only took three and a half seasons). And in the closing minutes, Boyd grabs a sledgehammer and confirms that Jade's mushroom vision was real. Plus a Fromspiracy on why everyone in Fromville keeps drinking the tap water without question.

Michael T. McPhearson joins Jim Wohlgemuth to discuss the dilemma of Veteran Deportation and Memorial Day. Michael participated in an NAACP Town Hall concerning the Naturalization of Veterans. Unfortunately, non-citizens will join the US Military, thinking it is a path to citizenship, and find out, nope. Michael spoke at that event, sharing the efforts VFP takes to help these veterans. We also watched the film "Bring Them Home" and heard from a panel that included Zahid Chaudhry, VFP chapter president, and currently fighting to stay in the country. Then Michael gave a Memorial Day speech in front of the Federal Building in downtown Seattle, which was then published in the South Seattle Emerald. We discuss the speech and reflect on Memorial Day. Michael then shares his vision of VFP.

Send us Fan MailIn this solo episode of Spartan Leadership, Josh Kosnick tackles a problem that's quietly wrecking our society, our homes, and our boardrooms: the inability to hold two truths at the same time. From Memorial Day to the boardroom to your marriage, he breaks down how binary thinking masquerades as conviction while quietly destroying wisdom, trust, and culture.You'll hear why being “for” or “against” everything isn't strength, it's rigidity — and how real leaders learn to sit in tension, honor complexity, and still make clear decisions. Josh then walks through six practical disciplines you can start using this week to build the muscle of holding two truths without folding under pressure.If you're a leader at work, at home, or in your community, this episode will challenge how you think, how you decide, and how you show up when things get complex.

Recorded on a Memorial Day drive through the Utah mountains, this episode is a meditation on gratitude, sacrifice, and what becomes possible when you stop running long enough to notice your life.

The salient point of our discussion today revolves around the critical implications of the recent Section 301 investigation initiated by the Office of the U.S. Trade Representative concerning Vietnam's intellectual property protections. This inquiry, which could potentially culminate in new tariffs, underscores the significant shift in sourcing dynamics within the furniture industry, particularly as manufacturers have increasingly turned to Vietnam in their efforts to diversify production away from China. We further explore the ramifications of such trade policies on operational strategies and the necessity for furniture operators to proactively assess the impact on their costs and supply chains. Additionally, we delve into the corporate maneuverings of La-Z-Boy, which has undertaken a strategic divestiture aimed at refining its focus on its core upholstery operations, a decision indicative of broader trends among established brands concentrating their resources. Finally, we analyze the mixed results from the recent Memorial Day weekend sales, highlighting the cautious consumer sentiment influenced by external economic factors, which suggests a need for retailers to adapt their promotional strategies accordingly.Takeaways:The U.S. trade representative's new Section 301 investigation into Vietnam highlights the significant implications for furniture sourcing and tariffs.La-Z-Boy's recent divestment of its wholesale case goods business signifies a strategic focus on core upholstery operations and operational efficiency.The mixed results of Memorial Day sales reflect the broader economic concerns affecting consumer confidence in the furniture market this year.Retailers are increasingly adopting educational approaches to upselling, prioritizing customer engagement over traditional sales tactics, thereby enhancing average transaction values.Current economic pressures, such as rising gas prices, are reshaping consumer spending habits and necessitating strategic adjustments in retail operations.The upcoming Fourth of July weekend is poised to serve as a critical indicator of consumer confidence and retail performance for the remainder of the year.
