Mario was a 28-year-old crack and alcohol addict who was imprisoned for burglary. At his sentencing the judge said he was “a waste of a human life.” Mario sadly agreed. Midway through his jail time he saw an advertisement for a journalism contest. It piqued Mario’s interest, and he enrolled in a nearby university. He was hooked. Mario loved working on news stories, and after his release he finished his master’s degree in journalism and now writes for The New York Times. He’s a waste no more! The life of the demon-possessed man living in the tombs seemed a waste to anyone who knew him. His neighbors bound him with chains for their protection and his, but “he tore the chains apart and broke the irons on his feet” (Mark 5:4). He ran back to the tombs where “night and day . . . he would cry out and cut himself with stones” (v. 5). Then he was changed forever. Jesus cast out the man’s demons and returned him to normal society. The town was amazed to find him “sitting there, dressed and in his right mind” (v. 15). The grateful man wanted to sail away with Christ, but He said no. “Go home to your own people,” said Jesus, “and tell them how much the Lord has done for you, and how he has had mercy on you” (v. 19). This man’s mission is our mission. Let’s tell others about Christ. Because of Him, no one’s life is a waste.

The Illinois Commerce Commission this week approved rate hikes for the state's two major natural gas utilities, but not as much as the companies had asked. And federal court cases surrounding the Trump administration's "Operation Midway Blitz" in the Chicago area are continuing, even though the operation itself is reportedly winding down. Peter Hancock talks with CNI's Maggie Dougherty and Jerry Nowicki about the week's news.

Florida's Americana ensemble Remedy Tree has achieved notable success, securing second place at the prestigious SPBGMA National Band Championship. They've sold out most of their summer tour and have hit ticket sales milestones. Following their signing with Mountain Fever Records in 2024, the band has performed internationally, showcasing their talents at Ireland's Westport Folk and Bluegrass Festival, and they're headed to England later this year as well. Remedy Tree has shared the stage with legendary artists such as Peter Rowan, The Steeldrivers, Ricky Skaggs, Town Mountain, Rhonda Vincent, and Della Mae. As a selected 2023 IBMA Ramble Showcase band, they have demonstrated their prowess within the industry. Midway through 2025, with a new album and larger shows on the horizon, Remedy Tree is experiencing a breakout year.Remedy Tree, founded by Gabriel and Abigail Acevedo in 2015, had a strong indie-folk sound in its inception. As time progressed, Remedy Tree added a banjo player and was subsequently thrust into a bluegrass trajectory. Gabriel Acevedo was born in Bayamon, Puerto Rico, and was raised in rural Umatilla, Florida. His Puerto Rican heritage and upbringing provide an outsider's approach to the genre. Abigail was raised in folk and old-time music circles and traveled with her family band throughout her teen years. The addition of Isaac Taylor and Nathan Beaumont, along with their deep roots in bluegrass tradition, elevates and bonds the music closer, further blossoming the Remedy Tree sound. An original music band at heart, Remedy Tree combines the love for bluegrass, an Appalachian old-time spirit, and the folk melodies that started it all, creating a truly unique Americana experience that provides a fresh perspective into where bluegrass is headed in the future."The future for this band will not look like anything you've seen to date because they are cutting their own path to success" .Orlando Weekly said "They are a string band that manage sweet, strolling folk songs and greased-lightning bluegrass burners with equal aplomb.

Welcome to Episode 118 of Tablesetters. The offseason opened with a major move, as Josh Naylor signed a five-year deal with the Seattle Mariners, immediately reshaping the first-base market. His return reinforces Seattle's lineup core and removes one of the most dependable bats from free agency. We break down why the deal came together quickly, why other teams never seriously entered the mix, and how his signing affects clubs still searching for first-base or middle-of-the-order help. Midway through the live show, the conversation shifted when news broke that the Orioles traded Grayson Rodriguez to the Angels for Taylor Ward. Rodriguez missed the entire 2025 season with arm injuries, but the Angels are betting on the upside he showed before the setbacks. Ward, under control through 2026, gives Baltimore a steady right-handed bat and immediate outfield stability. We break down how the trade fits each team's broader offseason plan and what it suggests about their priorities moving forward. The episode also covers one of the most unusual qualifying-offer cycles since the system's creation. Four players accepted the QO — Trent Grisham, Gleyber Torres, Shota Imanaga, and Brandon Woodruff — marking the first time more than three players have taken it in the same offseason. Grisham's decision is the most surprising, coming off a breakout 34-homer season in a thin outfield market. His acceptance raises the Yankees' payroll above the third luxury-tax tier and signals a calculated one-year bet on himself. Torres returns to Detroit looking for a healthier 2026 after playing through a sports hernia. Imanaga chose a reset with Chicago after a late-season downturn, and Woodruff accepted as expected as he continues his recovery from shoulder surgery. On the other side, nine players rejected the QO — Kyle Tucker, Kyle Schwarber, Bo Bichette, Framber Valdez, Dylan Cease, Ranger Suárez, Edwin Díaz, Zac Gallen, and Michael King — a group largely expected to pursue multi-year deals despite draft-pick compensation. Their decisions, combined with Grisham coming off the board, further thin the center-field market and shift clubs toward potential trade options. This QO cycle reflects a winter shaped by uncertainty around future labor conditions, stricter tax penalties, and mixed performances from several major free agents. In San Diego, the Padres' ownership evaluation remains ongoing. The Seidler family is formally exploring a potential sale while working through internal disputes and long-term financial considerations. The front office maintains a “business as usual” stance, but the review introduces real questions about payroll strategy and organizational stability heading into 2026. Award season added another layer to a busy week. Shohei Ohtani earned another unanimous MVP, and Aaron Judge secured his third after a tightly contested race. On the pitching side, Tarik Skubal won his second straight AL Cy Young Award, and Paul Skenes captured the NL honor just a year after winning Rookie of the Year — a rare progression that underscores how quickly he has become one of the league's most impactful pitchers. In Washington, the Nationals introduced Drew Butera as their new manager, making him the youngest skipper in Major League Baseball in more than 50 years. His development-focused background aligns with the organization's larger reset under Paul Toboni. The 2026 Hall of Fame ballot was also released, featuring returning candidates such as Carlos Beltrán and Andruw Jones along with first-time names including Cole Hamels, Ryan Braun, and Matt Kemp.

A Dallas, Texas intersection turned into my holy ground! It was the Light cutting through fog, life breaking into death. In this episode, I share how a near-collision at Midway & Alpha became the moment God moved me from religion to relationship—and how your testimony can do the same in someone else's life. This Godcast moves from story to Scripture to Savior, showing testimony isn't self-spotlight, but God speaking through redeemed lives. Grace doesn't quiet us... it sends us. Not with tales of our Egypt, but with Exodus steps. Not eloquence, but “Jesus Christ, and Him crucified.” Not culture's noise and confusion... but with the living Word, sharp and tender. Now, GO! Testify where He placed your feet on dry ground; not the bondage you left behind, but the freedom He gave you to live in. Then invite someone to that same Deliverer. Today! God's Word: Key passages: John 9; Acts 9; 1 John 5:9–11; Revelation 12:11; plus, Genesis 1, Exodus 25, Psalm 118, Ezekiel 37, Ephesians 2 & 6, Hebrews 4 & 13, and more. You will be able to glean the rest of them from the transcript, amen?Email: walkingtheway3@gmail.com

Send us a textA silky oatmeal cream pie stout that surprises with balance. An 11% tiramisu coffee stout that seduces with cocoa and espresso but leans sweet. And a brewery road story that proves awards can't fix bad hospitality, while a friendly bar down the street can turn an average pint into a memorable night. That's the ride we take as we crack open Whole Hog's 8% Imperial Stout and Saunder's OTTO brewed with Script Coffee, weighing keepers versus one-and-dones and where each beer truly shines.We start with the Wisconsin-made oatmeal cream pie stout: a clean, drinkable imperial that leads with toasted oats, chocolate, and a whisper of maple-caramel. It's not sticky, not heavy, and the alcohol hides well, making it stout-season friendly for people who usually avoid dessert bombs. Then we shift gears to OTTO, the 11% coffee dessert sipper. Expect big espresso, cocoa powder tiramisu vibes, and a sweetness that asks for a small pour. It's impressive in craft and body, but best as a post-dinner treat rather than a go-to fridge stock.Midway, we unpack an Indianapolis brewery detour: wall-to-wall awards and a superb pumpkin ale bruised by a surly bartender. Moments later, a second spot greets us with warmth, helpful recs, and even a free beer for an Untappd check-in—proof that service can raise or sink your tasting memory as much as the beer. We also test a new studio feel by recording without headphones, slip into winter talk—first snow, leaf piles, holiday lights—and map out coming Christmas beer picks.If you're hunting winter stout recommendations, this one's for you: keep the Whole Hog Oatmeal Cream Pie on hand for smooth, balanced sipping; save the tiramisu coffee stout for dessert flights and small glasses. Hit play, rate your favorite pour, and tell us the next cold-weather stout we should try. Subscribe, share with a beer-loving friend, and drop a review to help more drinkers find the show.

Send us a textStart here if you've ever wondered what to do with a “good day.” We open with gratitude and a simple challenge learned in a freezing boot camp line: when you're steady, scan for the person struggling more and lift them up. That mindset reframes pain, builds courage, and quietly rewires how communities heal. From there we root relationships in scripture, not trends, exploring Titus on temperate elders, reverent mentors, and homes shaped by love, self-control, and sound speech.We then walk through 1 John to connect belief, love, and obedience. The message lands with weight: God's children don't make a practice of sin. Falling is human; forming a habit is deadly. Assurance isn't vague comfort—it's knowing the Son and keeping His commands. We talk about prayer that aims at God's will, why answers often arrive in forms that stretch us, and how intercession restores rather than excuses. The call is to guard our hearts from idols and cling to Christ with a steady, repentant loyalty.Midway, we honor Specialist Michael R. Blanchfield, who threw himself on a grenade to save others—a story that cuts through noise and clarifies what real love costs. We also read Civil War Thanksgiving proclamations from Abraham Lincoln and Jefferson Davis, reflecting on gratitude, national sin, and the sobering work of repentance. The thread tying it all together is service: serve God first, serve your family with integrity, and serve neighbors by carrying their load when you can. If this resonates, subscribe, share with a friend who needs encouragement, and leave a review to help others find the show. Your support keeps these stories and scriptures in the ears that need them most.Support the showThe American Soul Podcasthttps://www.buzzsprout.com/1791934/subscribe

The unrelenting ferocity of the Pacific War was without a doubt the bloodiest and most savage of the two theaters of World War II. The memories of brutal battles like Guadalcanal, Tarawa, Midway and Iwo Jima are forever seared into minds of the courageous men who fought there. The island of Guadalcanal represented one of the last chances for the Allies to turn back the Japanese advance in the Pacific. Marine veteran Victor Croizat experienced the "hell of earth" of the battle for Guadalcanal.

Tara breaks down the latest ICE operation in Florida, highlighting the dangers posed by criminal illegal immigrants and the challenges posed by activist judges releasing them. She then connects immigration policy to the skyrocketing U.S. housing crisis, showing how the influx of millions of legal and illegal immigrants has created a shortage of homes and driven up rent, pushing young Americans out of the market. Tara also examines proposed “solutions” like portable and 50-year mortgages and H-1B visa misuse, arguing that current policies dilute American jobs and threaten generational wealth. This episode is a deep dive into law, policy, and the economics of immigration, exposing how mismanagement affects safety, affordability, and the future of the American dream.

Send us a textIn this week's episode of Crime and Cocktails with the PodCats, Jess, Erica, and Traci welcome TomCat Julian (aka the honorary feline of the night aka Party after Five) for a wild ride through Netflix's The Perfect Neighbor — a disturbing true crime tale of Florida feuds, front porch fury, and a heaping dose of old-fashioned racism. Espresso martinis in hand, the crew dives headfirst into the story of Ajike “AJ” Owens and her neighbor Susan Lorincz — where one ordinary Ocala neighborhood spirals into a battleground of petty complaints and escalating tension.The kitties were in collective disbelief as they unpacked the case's twists and turns. Or maybe just super hammered. Midway through the show, the PodCats called in fan-favorite PodKittie Bryn to offer her signature mix of humor and heart, while Erica's PodKitty Victoria makes a surprise appearance to finally settle a long-running question about “back massagers.” It's equal parts chaos, comedy, and catharsis — just the way we like it.We also loved having Julian on the mic (and a brief cameo from the OG TomCat, Justin). Let's just say it was a lot more testosterone than the PodCats are used to — in the best way. Final verdict: 8 out of 12 paws.

Hey Retro Fans!

The number of passengers at Midway Airport has dropped sharply over the past year.

The Chiefs have crossed the halfway point of their schedule, and if the season ended today they wouldn't be in the playoffs. It's a strange place to be for the team that's played in five of the last six Super Bowls. On SportsBeat KC, the sports podcast of The Kansas City Star and KCUR, Star columnist Sam McDowell shares his thoughts on where thing stand with the Chiefs, starting with Sunday's loss to the Buffalo Bills. The sequence at the end of the first half in which the Chiefs settled for a field goal from the 1, was critical in the outcome, according to McDowell. As the Chiefs head into a bye week, we look at the second half of the season and speculate what it's going to take to make the postseason for an 11th straight year. Learn more about your ad choices.

Since the beginning of  “Operation Midway Blitz,” Chicago neighborhoods have remained on high alert, afraid that immigration officials could arrest community members at any moment. This has made it especially difficult for people who work in public, such as construction workers, day laborers, and street vendors. Producer Michelle Navarro recently attended a street vendor crawl in Back of the Yards to talk with Chicagoans committed to shopping with and protecting those who remain most vulnerable to targeting by immigration officials.    Want some more City Cast Chicago news?

We believe this ground-level approach not only builds community but leads to a more accurate portrayal of a neighborhood.Stories that matter to you — every daySince our launch five years ago, we've published more than 25,000 stories from the neighborhoods, covered hundreds of community meetings and send daily and neighborhood newsletters to more than 130,000 Chicagoans. We've built this loyalty by proving to folks we are not only covering their neighborhoods, we are a part of them. Some of us have internalized the national media's narrative of a broken Chicago. We aim to change that by celebrating our neighborhoods and chronicling the resilience of the people who fight every day to make Chicago a better place for all.

While it's not exactly halftime of the 2025 NFL season yet, it is the halfway point of the fantasy football season, and Jeff Mans is here to give his takes on everything that has happened so far and what is to come. First off, he reacts to the Baltimore Ravens' fake injury report from last week, the Saints' benching of Spencer Rattler, and his annoyance at QBs who throw short of the first down. Mans gives out his top five trade candidates with the NFL trade deadline approaching, including the best and worst landing spots for those key players. He has his midseason power rankings ready to go, and goes off on a certain team he believed in last week, who now has the biggest drop this week. As always, Jeff counts down his top 10 waiver wire pickups of the week. Then he provides his midseason report card on how his seasonal leagues, DFS earnings, and betting record have fared so far. Finally, it is time for the week nine survivor team and his Ravens/Dolphins Thursday Night bet of the week.
