Podcasts about midwesterners

Olipop. Poppi. Simply Pop. Culture Pop. I imagine consumers confuse these brands…especially when they mostly look the same and talk the same. But instead of providing you with a dissertation on the effects of categorical amalgamation…I really wanted to highlight how me and my fellow Midwesterners (especially from Ohio) have been right all along! It's “POP” not “SODA.” Though, as the beverage category expands around a predetermined set of principles…it becomes increasingly ripe to be challenged. And maybe just maybe that challenger brand will be Bloom Nutrition, which is set release its shelf-stable Bloom Pop at Walmart by the end of summer. After skyrocketing up the rankings list of top-selling energy drinks in its first year, this “heat check type” innovation decision ultimately reflects how Bloom, Nutrabolt, and Keurig Dr Pepper are evolving together.

From singing Johnny Cash covers in bars at just eight years old to racking up over 86 million streams, Roman Alexander has built his career on grit, faith, and heart. A grandson of Mexican immigrants and a true Midwesterner, Roman chased his dream to Nashville—enduring long days and dead-end jobs until his breakout duet “Between You & Me” made him one of Spotify’s longest-running independent country artists. With his new EP Midwest Calling, Roman shares the stories of where he’s from, what he’s carried, and why he’ll never stop believing in the music that brought him here. For him, success isn’t about charts—it’s about connection, faith, and the small circle of people who make it all matter.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

In this episode, Tudor and Kyle Olson of The Midwesterner discuss the ongoing controversy surrounding Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion (DEI) policies in universities across the United States. They explore how universities are allegedly rebranding DEI initiatives despite executive orders aimed at banning them, the implications of these policies on traditional values, and the need for accountability in educational institutions. The conversation highlights the challenges faced by students who feel marginalized and the broader impact of these policies on American society.

Send us a textBrian O'Neill's journey from surviving a near-death experience to becoming one of Pittsburgh's most beloved columnists reads like a chapter from a novel – except every word is true. At 23, O'Neill was sucked through a storm drain pipe during a flash flood in Danville, Virginia, an experience he recounts with both terror and humor. "I honestly thought God was going to kill me in a sewer in Danville, Virginia," he shares. This brush with death unexpectedly launched his journalism career when his published account caught the attention of editors at larger papers, eventually leading him to the Pittsburgh Press in 1988.For 32 years, O'Neill chronicled Pittsburgh through his distinctive columns, developing a deep appreciation for what he calls "The Paris of Appalachia." His perspective on the city's unique position – straddling the Northeast, Midwest, and South – offers profound insight into Pittsburghers' character: "They have the work ethic of Midwesterners, can get in your face like Northeasterners, but they're also friendly like Southerners."Baseball emerges as O'Neill's lifelong passion throughout the conversation. From witnessing Willie Mays' first home run as a Met to analyzing the Pirates through his "Stats Geek" column, O'Neill represents the quintessential thoughtful fan. His memories of the electric 2013 Wild Card game and appreciation for underrated Pirates like Brian Giles and Jack Wilson speak to someone who understands baseball's soul – its unpredictability and personal stories beneath the statistics.What truly shines through is O'Neill's storytelling gift and authentic love for Pittsburgh. Whether recounting his humorous feud with former County Coroner Cyril Wecht or explaining how he fulfilled his childhood dream of living close enough to walk to baseball games, O'Neill demonstrates why his perspective resonated with readers for over three decades.Join us for this remarkable conversation with a true Pittsburgh treasure. What strange twists of fate have shaped your life? We'd love to hear your story in the comments.THANK YOU FOR LISTENING!!!!www.holdmycutter.com

Any good Midwesterner knows that this is just the beginning of the corn on the cob season here in the US. While you can get corn in June or July, it's really not best until August and September. That's when the sweet corn is at its peak and its lowest price. But that hasn't stopped two restaurant chains from featuring summer dishes with little corn cobettes. Is this just a coincidence, or do we have an overabundance of corn this year? Both Cracker Barrel and Red Lobster have new dishes featuring corn cobettes. Is corn cheap this year? Or are people clamoring for corn on the cob? I find it strange...

Fresh off his national radio debut, Kyle Olson joined us with powerful insight on Trump's America 250 kickoff, Michigan's political crossroads in 2026, and the rise of radical left ideologues like Jocelyn Benson. Kyle warned that Benson could be even more dangerous than Whitmer, driven by a deeply partisan agenda to transform Michigan. We also broke down ICE raids in Detroit targeting criminal illegals and the leftist agitators trying to shield them. Plus—bombshell developments as AG Dana Nessel raids Whitmer's economic agency, hinting at growing fractures on the Left. The knives are coming out—and so is the truth.Get the stories from today's show in THE STACK: https://justinbarclay.comKirk Elliott PHD - FREE consultation on wealth conservation - http://GoldWithJustin.comJoin Justin in the MAHA revolution - http://HealthWithJustin.comTry Cue Streaming for just $2 / day and help support the good guys https://justinbarclay.com/cueUp to 80% OFF!

Midwesterner editor Kyle Olson lit up the mic: Secretary of State Jocelyn Benson stone-walled lawmakers yet again—ducking a subpoena for the 2024 clerk “guidance” booklet while blaming everyone else for her botched election rules and broken transparency site—just as she eyes the governor's mansion. House committees also roasted Whitmer's DNR for undercover stings against hunters, with Uncle Ted Nugent branding the agency “the enemy of conservation” amid a deer-car-crash epidemic surpassing 58 thousand wrecks last year. And Michigan families? They're literally drying clothes on the line and skipping Christmas lights because DTE and Consumers keep hiking the nation's highest electric rates while service reliability tanks—chasing jobs and manufacturing out of the state.

Kyle Olson from The Midwesterner exposes the dark underbelly of the so-called “No Kings Nationwide Day of Defiance” protests spreading across Michigan and the country. They reveal the radical groups behind the chaos—including Indivisible and the Party for Socialism and Liberation—and connect the dots to a broader Marxist revolution aimed at flipping Senate seats in 2026. The conversation also takes a sharp turn into national security concerns, with growing scrutiny on Chinese students at the University of Michigan linked to espionage, smuggling, and election interference. Olson warns this is just the tip of the iceberg, with CCP infiltration hiding in plain sight at top American universities.Get the stories from today's show in THE STACK: https://justinbarclay.comKirk Elliott PHD - FREE consultation on wealth conservation - http://GoldWithJustin.comJoin Justin in the MAHA revolution - http://HealthWithJustin.comTry Cue Streaming for just $2 / day and help support the good guys https://justinbarclay.com/cueUp to 80% OFF!

Myles delivers some really sad news about his lake place. We go through all the things that Midwesterners absolutely cannot throw away. Myles also watched his child by himself for the first time this past weekend. Then, the podcast takes a completely unexpected left turn.

Connor tells us stories of Fayetteville, the power of SEC Baseball, how far Midwesterners will drive, what you can do for fun in Arkansas, and Harambe.

Sean Hershey is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker in New York who specializes in using mind-body work to help his clients end their chronic pain and, in his words, "truly learn to be themselves." He's the host of a new podcast called The Mind-Body Medicine for Chronic Pain, and in that podcast he works to, piece by piece, share the principles and practices of mindbody healing.I love Sean's honest and humble approach (he's a Midwesterner, just like me, who grew up in an Irish Catholic community in St. Paul, Minnesota) and think you will too. In this conversation Sean and I talk about the paradox of mindbody healing -- as we embrace our true selves and our body pain goes down, our feelings of separation from others can increase. This of course does not mean we shouldn't do it -- it's just that this angle is not covered as frequently as the success stories are.Sean and I also share parts of our journey and talk hip pain and what we've learned about it. We talk about what being a therapist pre-mindbody vs post-mindbody looks like for him. And of course we discuss our shared understanding of the TMS (tension myoneural syndrome) personality.Website: https://www.mindbodymedicineforchronicpain.com/Podcast: https://open.spotify.com/show/2w673beYfZXmfpznyvaYQgInstagram:  https://www.instagram.com/my_gay_therapist/

Ryan's still gone, so we talk about the surprisingly emotional end to Luke's time on the Outdoor Boys channel. Myles finally toured Ryan's house and breaks down what Midwesterners really love.

Midwesterners typically head to the woods to find morels because the mushrooms have a lifecycle that's hard to replicate at farms, but that could change. Plus: Why it's so hard for the farming industry in Kansas to switch crops.

Each spring, Midwesterners head to the woods to find morel mushrooms. But some in the region are developing methods to reliably farm the delicacy.

Tom Petersen  After a brief and ill-fated start as a daily newspaper reporter, Tom C. Petersen spent decades in the corporate world as a utility communications professional. He started out writing news releases and employee newsletters before transitioning to writing strategic business objec- tives and annual performance reviews. He ultimately was primarily responsible for attending meetings and deleting emails. He left the corporate world in 2023 to focus on writing about the intersection of faith and work, and mostly how poorly he had navigated it over the years. He is intrigued by the challenge of living out our faith with integrity in a workplace that usually doesn't play by those rules. He finds the conflict between the two downright funny. He hopes his struggles serve to encourage others who try to navigate the same path. He's been gratified to have his musings reprinted in outlets like CBN.com, The High Calling site of the Theology of Work Project, and, most recently, WorkLight. He is the author of a new book of humorous essays of how badly he struggles in this area: Thank God It's Monday(?): Balancing Work and Faith While Keeping Your Sense of Humor. Tom is a husband, father, and native Midwesterner with two master's degrees (one of which is still accredited).

During a recent conversation with fellow Democrats, Minnesota Governor Tim Walz offered a candid reflection on why he believes the Harris campaign selected him as Kamala Harris's running mate. Walz remarked, somewhat self-deprecatingly, that his background as a football coach and a hands-on, pickup-truck-fixing Midwesterner helped him connect with white, working-class voters—particularly men—who might not have otherwise supported Harris. He suggested that his everyman persona and roots in middle America made him a relatable and reassuring presence on the ticket, helping to bridge cultural and political divides. Freedom Marketplace: https://freedommarketplace.net The Stack: https://www.toddhuffshow.com/stack-of-stuff Email: todd@toddhuffshow.comPhone: 317.210.2830Follow us on…Instagram: @toddhuffshowFacebook: The Todd Huff ShowTwitter: @toddhuffshowLinkedIn: The Todd Huff ShowTikTok: @toddhuffshowSupport Our Partners:https://www.toddhuffshow.com/partners Links:https://www.mypillow.com/todd Promo Code: TODDhttps://mystore.com/toddhttps://soltea.com - Promo Code TODD for $29.95 off your first orderEaston University - https://www.eastonuniversity.comkenaifish.com - Promo Code TODD to save 15%

Backyard chickens are really popular this year, in part due to the high cost of eggs. Some people are even renting chickens.

Alex and Richard break down offseason happenings in the Mid-American Conference, which saw lots of coach carousel turnover. * Ohio: Tim Albin to Charlotte, OC Brian Smith replacing him * Ball State: An off-the-beaten-path coach hire, bringing on a guy who most recently coached non-scholarship football in the Pioneer League * Miami: It's a Return to the MAC for QB Dequan Finn* Buffalo: Pete Lembo tries to follow up a surprisingly good opening act* Bowling Green: Has an offseason loss of a coach ever looked better than the Falcons winding up with Eddie George? * Western Michigan: Major staff turnover as Lance Taylor tries to fix it * Toledo: Jason Candle has a good roster (as usual) and spicy spring game commentary * NIU: Losing basically everything from last year's team that beat Notre Dame, and also preparing for a conference switch * Akron: A portal exodus * EMU: Ditto, but Chris Creighton is a hard man to count out * Central Michigan: Trying something different with Army's Matt Drinkall as head coach. We applaud the spirit of the hire* Kent State: Well, it's really, really badThe MAC also has some realignment coming for this season, with UMass joining back up. They're not officially Midwesterners again until July, though, so we'll discuss the Minutemen when we check in with the independents. (Ed. note! We recorded most of this episode shortly before the spring transfer portal window opened, but we made a few updates before publication on 4/23, mostly to cover the late-spring firing of Kent State's head coach.)

On this episode of the CBJ podcast, host John Burgman and Jonathan Landis, the CEO of Greater Heights, talk about the winding path from an idea to the construction and, finally, the grand opening of a new climbing gym. Greater Heights opened in early December 2024 in Fitchburg, Wisconsin—which is right around Madison—and has ropes, boulders and auto belays. The climbing walls at the gym are from Rockwerx, the flooring is from Asana, and Rock Gym Pro is the management software. John and Jonathan chat all about the origin of Greater Heights and the origin of Jonathan's involvement with the gym. They discuss Jonathan's outlook on how climbing gyms are like a subscription service, in a way. They also focus on the Midwest as a good region for a climbing gym, and Jonathan, as a lifelong Midwesterner, offers some keen insights on getting one started. General Topics Covered Greater Heights' Origin and Background Jonathan's Climbing Journey and Business Development Finding the Right Space and Facility Considerations Convincing Investors and Securing Financing Risk Assessment and Business Threats Midwest Market Analysis and Gym Appeal Show Notes Greater Heights Find Greater Heights on Instagram: @gh.climbing More background on the opening of Greater Heights: New Full-Service Gym Is Coming to Wisconsin's Capital This Winter Thank you Approach and EP Climbing for your support!

Kash Patel just got confirmed as FBI Director, and let's just say the deep state isn't thrilled. Meanwhile, in Michigan, lawmakers scrambled at the last minute to tweak paid sick leave and minimum wage laws before they could take full effect—because, apparently, planning ahead is for suckers.

While love and science don't often go hand-in-hand, this week, in celebration of Valentine's Day, both of our stories are about finding love using scientific methods.Part 1: After Tony Dahlman plucks up the courage to ask out a fellow statistician, he consults the Survey Administration Manual for guidance on how to construct the perfect date.Part 2: When engineering student Heather Monigan asks liberal arts major Michael Berger on a date he's completely unaware that she's interested in him.Tony Dahlman is a numbers guy. He has spent nineteen years as a statistician for the U.S. Department of Agriculture. Tony is a native Minnesotan who enjoys running, biking, public speaking, college football, and is obsessed with State Fairs. A few years ago he got hooked on storytelling and has told stories with Story District in Washington, DC, the Des Moines Storyteller's Project, TellersBridge in Cedar Rapids, IA, and The Moth in Minneapolis/St. Paul, MN. Tony lives with his wife in Des Moines, Iowa.Heather Monigan is a resilient lady with a sharp wit who has learned to laugh in the face of adversity. Her hobbies include staying happily married, keeping two teens alive and spontaneous home remodels. In her spare time, she is an Engineering Executive in the semiconductor industry for over 24 years and active in the tech community. She currently serves as Chair of the IEEE Phoenix Section and is the Phoenix Section's International Development Lead for Engineers Without Borders. Heather also serves on the Grand Canyon University President's STEM Advisory Board and the GCU Engineering Advisory Council. She is an adjunct engineering professor for Grand Canyon University. Ms. Monigan holds an MBA and BSCE and never got the memo to “relax”.Michael is married to Heather Monigan, which is what got him this gig. He also considers that his greatest achievement. Like most everyone else out in Phoenix he is an ex-Midwesterner, hailing from Dayton, Ohio. Since moving to Phoenix in 2004 he acquired a son, a daughter, a doctorate, and too many cats. Since his parents were both in education he decided to start his career there and never left, now working as the Dean of the College of Doctoral Studies for Grand Canyon University. In his limited free time he enjoys playing games of all kinds, the odd bit of creative writing, working out, and attempting ridiculous obstacle course races. Michael doesn't mind public speaking but has difficulty memorizing scripts. Hopefully this won't be a problem for Heather.  Learn more about your ad choices.

This episode was chaos—just like every hunting season. Bourbon-fueled ramblings, shed hunting plans, and the occasional existential crisis about the meaning of a three-finger pour. But beneath the laughter and whiskey-soaked musings, there's gold: Iowa scouting, antler obsession, and the never-ending pursuit of finding the right place at the right time. Derek recounts his solo mission into Iowa's bluff country, covering 15 miles of rugged terrain in search of sheds, encountering fresh rubs, a dead buck, and one wise old owl keeping watch. The lesson? When you find one shed, there are likely more. And if your hips hurt afterward, you probably did it right. Meanwhile, predator activity is ramping up, coyotes are stealing sheds, and somewhere, a turkey hunter is arguing about whether turkeys belong in the upland bird category. There's also a sidebar on Kwik Trip snacks, the endless Big Buddy drink, and why a Kwik Trip cheeseburger might be the only thing keeping Midwesterners going through the late-season slump. To top it all off, Taylor Swift makes an appearance—metaphorically, at least—because whether it's antlers or bourbon, sometimes you just gotta shake it off. Learn more about your ad choices.

THE HASTE WAS THE KNOWN RISK: 7/8   A Shot to Save the World: The Inside Story of the Life-or-Death Race for a COVID-19 Vaccine, by  Gregory Zuckerman   Kindle Edition https://www.amazon.com/Shot-Save-World-Life-Death/dp/059342039X/ref=tmm_hrd_swatch_0?_encoding=UTF8&qid=&sr= Few were ready when a mysterious respiratory illness emerged in Wuhan, China in January 2020. Politicians, government officials, business leaders, and public-health professionals were unprepared for the most devastating pandemic in a century. Many of the world's biggest drug and vaccine makers were slow to react or couldn't muster an effective response. It was up to a small group of unlikely and untested scientists and executives to save civilization. A French businessman dismissed by many as a fabulist. A Turkish immigrant with little virus experience. A quirky Midwesterner obsessed with insect cells. A Boston scientist employing questionable techniques. A British scientist despised by his peers. Far from the limelight, each had spent years developing innovative vaccine approaches. Their work was met with skepticism and scorn. By 2020, these individuals had little proof of progress. Yet they and their colleagues wanted to be the ones to stop the virus holding the world hostage. They scrambled to turn their life's work into life-saving vaccines in a matter of months, each gunning to make the big breakthrough—and to beat each other for the glory that a vaccine guaranteed. 1919 TOKYO
