In June 2024 the Greater Memphis, Tennessee Chamber of Commerce announced Elon Musk's artificial intelligence company, xAI, would build its "Colossus" data center in an old Electrolux factory. Two years on, the story continues to expand alongside the company's growing footprint, with a second campus, Colossus II, across the state line in Southaven, Mississippi; a contested gray water recycling plant; an ever-rising count of gas turbines; multiple lawsuits; and communities in South Memphis still pressing for straight answers.Few people have tracked all of it more closely than Neil Strebig, a reporter with The Commercial Appeal in Memphis who has covered the xAI story daily from the beginning. He's attended community meetings and hearings, filed right-to-know requests, parsed the differing interpretations of the Clean Air Act by the EPA, the Shelby County Health Department and the Mississippi Department of Environmental Quality, counted turbines, and spent time with residents living alongside the facilities. The result is a level of detail that few can match.In this conversation, Strebig brings us up to speed on the latest developments — including a newly updated lawsuit citing unpermitted turbines in Southaven, the implications of the SpaceX IPO and the impending IPOs of other AI firms, and the stalled water recycling plant Memphis leaders had counted on. And, he reflects on what it has been like to chase facts as the story spread across two states and a thicket of jurisdictions.

Eddie and Becky Briggs of Mississippi are two of the best helice shooters in the world, and most people have never heard of the sport. They join the Mississippi Outdoors Podcast to explain everything.Helice uses spinning plastic targets launched from five machines in a baseball diamond layout. You don't know which machine will fire. The targets spin at 5,000 RPMs, fly unpredictably, and you have to knock the white center cap inside a two-foot fence ring — with two shots. Eddie is the current U.S. senior champion. Becky's team finished second at the World Championship in Italy.They talk about what it feels like to compete overseas with Team USA, how to get started in the sport, where to try it in Mississippi, and why every shooter they've introduced to it calls it addictive.Mississippi Outdoors is produced by the Mississippi Department of Wildlife, Fisheries, and Parks.

Joseph Murphy grew up in a good family in Wisconsin, but at just 17 years old he made a decision that changed everything — committing an armed gas station robbery that sent him into the criminal justice system. In this episode of Locked In with Ian Bick, Joseph opens up about living with mental health disabilities while navigating county jail, prison, and years on probation, where violations kept pulling him back in. Despite receiving a rare pardon from the governor, he later found himself facing new charges for check fraud and business fraud, leading to more time in both Iowa and Wisconsin jails and prisons. Joseph shares what it was like being stuck in the system for decades, the challenges of surviving incarceration with a disability, and how difficult it is to truly break free once you're in. After finally getting out, he landed a job with the Mississippi Department of Corrections, only to be fired for discrimination related to his disability — a case he fought and ultimately settled. _____________________________________________ #PrisonStories #TrueCrime #JailLife #Probation #MentalHealth #ExInmate #CriminalJustice #realstories _____________________________________________ Connect with Joseph Murphy: Email: JoeJustice2026@gmail.com _____________________________________________ Hosted, Executive Produced & Edited By Ian Bick: https://www.instagram.com/ian_bick/?hl=en https://ianbick.com/ _____________________________________________ Shop Locked In Merch: http://www.ianbick.com/shop _____________________________________________ Timestamps: 00:00 From Robbery to Prison — His Story Begins 01:10 Growing Up & Family Background 02:00 Mental Health Struggles Early On 02:30 The Gas Station Robbery 03:43 Arrest, Charges & Juvenile Sentencing 05:55 Fighting for a Pardon & Lessons Learned 07:17 Second Chance… Then Another Arrest 09:45 Legal System Challenges & Court Battles 13:10 Probation vs Prison — What's Worse? 15:32 Mental Illness Inside the System 17:19 Life in Prison — Reality & Conditions 20:00 Loss, Survival & Breaking Points 23:02 The Truth About Probation & Parole 25:00 Violations That Send People Back 29:29 Life After Probation — Marriage & Growth 33:31 Building a Business After Prison 36:45 New Charges & Legal Consequences 43:10 County Jail vs Prison — Key Differences 46:40 Playing the Legal System Like a Game 48:01 Release, Relocation & Starting Over 51:21 Becoming an Advocate in Mississippi 53:38 Helping Others After Prison 56:01 Learning From Setbacks & Moving Forward 01:00:20 Criminal Justice Reform Efforts 01:07:20 Working Inside the Corrections System 01:12:30 Workplace Discrimination & Legal Fight 01:18:35 ADA Rights & Systemic Issues 01:23:00 Finally Off Probation — Freedom 01:24:42 Calling for Criminal Justice Reform 01:27:19 Final Thoughts & Closing Learn more about your ad choices.

In this no-holds-barred episode of The Clay Edwards Show, Clay opens with some straight talk: the mission to “save Jackson” is officially off the table. The city is too deep in culture rot to be rescued — and he doesn't hold back on the reasons why. He praises streamer Asmongold for proving you don't need to be polished or politically correct to build a massive audience — just tell the truth and watch people show up. Clay also addresses the recent wave of personal attacks, including critics dredging up his ex-wife, then flips the script by exposing the Brady/Giglio list as nothing more than a grift. In response, he launches his own “FAFO List” for people who make false reports against good law enforcement officers. Clay reacts to the discovery of Ku Klux Klan artifacts at the Mississippi Department of Public Safety, refusing to let history be erased and calling out the political hypocrisy that surrounds it. He also spotlights an upcoming fundraiser at Cypress Point Resort benefiting U.S. Marine veteran Madison DeLoach and two-year-old Salem Bennett, who is facing multiple surgeries for arthrogryposis. Hour 2 features special guest Andrew Gasser for a candid, sometimes uncomfortable conversation on street preaching. The duo reacts to viral clips from Sister Cindy's “Ho No Mo Tour” at Ole Miss and debates the more confrontational style of local preachers like Brother Gabe at area concerts. They dig into free speech, cultural standards, modesty, fatherhood, faith, and how to reach people with truth without driving them away. Listener calls keep the discussion lively and raw.

In this no-holds-barred segment of The Clay Edwards Show, Clay rips into the latest round of Democrat “fear porn” after Ku Klux Klan artifacts — white robes, gold seal charters, and handwritten meeting minutes from the violent 1960s White Knights of the KKK — were discovered in an old suitcase during a move at the Mississippi Department of Public Safety. Clay calls out the left for wallowing in the story like pigs in mud, celebrating every chance to trot out KKK history while conveniently forgetting that every documented member was a registered, proud Democrat. He questions the selective outrage: why must Confederate statues be torn down to “erase hate,” yet these Klan documents are suddenly sacred history that must be digitized and preserved for future generations?   With his trademark bluntness, Clay refuses to let history be memory-holed. He argues that preserving the ugly past isn't racism — erasing it is how you guarantee we repeat it. White Democrats, he says, should never be allowed to forget the terror and hell they rained down on Mississippi through the Civil Rights era and long before. No gaslighting, no rewriting, no separating the Klan from the party that created and protected it.

In the second hour of The Clay Edwards Show, host Clay Edwards welcomes Brad White, Executive Director of the Mississippi Department of Transportation (MDOT), for an in-depth discussion on infrastructure challenges and progress. Sponsored by A-1 Gear and Auto, the interview covers work zone safety amid driver distractions like cell phones, with Brad emphasizing the need for patience as "every barrel represents progress" and sharing stories of MDOT workers injured or killed on the job. They delve into the long-standing issue of copper theft from interstate streetlights along I-20, I-55, and I-220 in Jackson's high-crime areas, noting how thieves have repeatedly stripped wiring, leaving dangerous dark stretches. Brad explains MDOT's solutions, including tamper-proof boxes with notifications, partnerships with law enforcement (like Capitol Police), and an ongoing study for advanced designs, potentially including solar options or elevated components, to protect taxpayer investments costing millions in repairs.   The conversation shifts to positive developments, such as record funding from the legislature enabling major projects: widening I-55 from Madison to Gluckstadt with a new Reunion interchange, expansions on Highway 98, I-20 in Warren County, and others like Highway 15 and Lakeland Drive. Brad highlights litter removal efforts, costing millions annually, and promotes MDOT's inmate litter program available to all counties and municipalities. He addresses listener questions on widening Highway 471 in Rankin County (under consideration) and the decline in visible inmate cleanups (due to local partnerships). Throughout, Brad praises legislative support under Governor Reeves, which has infused over $1 billion into capacity projects, reversing decades of underfunding to build safer, more efficient roads for economic growth and public safety. The segment underscores MDOT's role in Mississippi's future, blending critiques of societal issues like littering with optimism about ongoing transformations.  

In this episode of The Clay Edwards Show on WYAB FM, host Clay Edwards kicks off with a lively intro montage highlighting life's chaos, cancel culture, and corruption in Jackson, Mississippi. Broadcasting from the Men's Health and Women's Wellness of Mississippi studios, Clay chats about the chilly weather, his impulse to buy a flamethrower (thanks to targeted ads), and upgrades to the show's 4K livestream cameras. He shares personal anecdotes on adapting to cold mornings, his truck woes, and excitement over fixed streetlights along I-20, I-55, and I-220 corridors—long plagued by copper theft in high-crime areas.   Clay dives into a juicy sports scandal: the firing of University of Michigan football coach Sherrone Moore over an alleged affair with a staffer (dubbed a "snow bunny"), including dramatic details of threats and a botched $30 million contract. He ties it to broader cultural critiques on infidelity, hip-hop influences, and societal issues, defending his "reality radio" style against accusations of overgeneralization.   In hour two, Clay interviews Brad White, Executive Director of the Mississippi Department of Transportation (MDOT). They discuss ongoing road projects like widening I-55 from Madison to Gluckstadt, new interchanges, litter cleanup challenges, work zone safety, and efforts to prevent copper theft with tamper-proof tech.

In this episode of the Mississippi Outdoors Podcast, host Matt Wyatt sits down with Rick Hamrick, the Small Game Coordinator for MDWFP, to talk about the story of quail in Mississippi — where they were, where they are now, and what it takes to bring them back.Rick explains how land use changes over the last 100+ years reshaped the entire landscape for quail. From the days of mule farming and small patchwork fields to modern mechanized agriculture and dense pine stands, Mississippi's habitat has shifted — taking quail numbers with it. He also breaks down predator dynamics, the role of prescribed fire, why some regions still hold birds, and how landowners can create small pockets of habitat that truly matter.The conversation covers:• Mississippi's quail boom of the early 1900s• How habitat changes led to long-term decline• Why quail thrive after disturbances like fire, floods, and clearcuts• Regions of Mississippi where quail still exist today• Public lands with quail opportunities• The role of predators• What landowners can realistically do — from prescribed burning to habitat restoration• The acreage needed for hearing vs hunting vs sustaining a coveyIt's a clear, science-driven explanation of quail decline that every Mississippi landowner, hunter, or conservationist should hear.Mississippi Outdoors is produced by the Mississippi Department of Wildlife, Fisheries, and Parks.

Fish Fries, political BBQs, family reunions — during the 1930s writers were paid by the government to chronicle local food, eating customs and recipes across the United States. America Eats, a WPA project, sent writers like Nelson Algren, Zora Neale Hurston, Eudora Welty, and Stetson Kennedy out to document America's relationship with food during the Great Depression.When we were searching for Hidden Kitchens and stories about how people come together through food we opened up a phone line on NPR and asked the nation for their ideas. Mark Kurlansky, author of Choice Cuts: Food Writing from Around the World and Throughout History told us about America Eats, a federal Works Progress Administration (WPA) program in the 1930s that sent writers throughout the country to document foodways.Each region had its own America Eats team.
