The Missouri River, the longest river in North America, begins its journey at Three Forks, Montana. It travels 2,341 miles before joining the Mississippi River just north of St. Louis. For 390 of those miles, it winds through North Dakota. It is such a literal force of nature and such a major presence in the state that it has been called "one of the defining attributes of North Dakota's landscape."

What can the past teach us about the future of farming, conservation, and healthy rivers?In this episode of It's in Our Nature, host Adam McLane sits down with Zack Miller of The Nature Conservancy and Hannah Hemmelgarn of the University of Missouri Center for Agroforestry to discuss agroforestry along the Missouri River.Together, they explore the rich history of the Missouri River floodplain, how human activity transformed this landscape over time, and why agroforestry—a land management approach that integrates trees and shrubs with crops to create sustainable, productive, and ecologically diverse agricultural landscapes—is gaining renewed attention. From improving water quality and reducing flood impacts to creating new opportunities for farmers and landowners, agroforestry offers a powerful example of how working lands and nature can thrive together.The conversation highlights the partnerships driving this work forward, the role of innovation rooted in tradition, and the hope that a more resilient future is possible for Missouri's rivers, farms, and communities.Guests:Zack Miller, Leveraging Our Lands Strategy Lead, The Nature Conservancy in MissouriHannah Hemmelgarn, Associate Director & Assistant Research Professor, University of Missouri Center for Agroforestry

Send us Fan MailWell, would you do this? Would you take a canoe to the headwaters of Missouri River there in Three Forks Montana, get in it and say I think I will paddle this thing to Saint Louis Missouri? Well, that is what this week's guest on the Montana Outdoor Podcast is doing! So, here is what happened, the Captain of the Montana Outdoor Radio show is out on Fort Peck Reservoir (big shocker there right) and he comes across a guy in a canoe that has been paddling down the reservoir. His canoe is packed, and the Captain gets curious and strikes up a conversation with this guy whose name is Bryon. Bryon tells the Captain that he started in Three Forks and is on his way to St. Louis. That is like 2,450 miles! That's gonna take a while! Heck, it took him over 6 days to paddle Fort Peck alone. So, the Captain calls your host Downrigger Dale and says “hey you got to call this guy, here is his cell number”. So, Rigger calls old Bryon and hits “record”. Gang, you have GOT to watch or listen to this podcast! It is fascinating and Bryon, well he is a real character! So why is he doing this? Is he raising money for something? Nope. Is trying to bring awareness to some cause? Nope. Is he trying to break some kind of record? Nope. You need to watch or listen right now cause only Bryon can explain this and make it make sense…sort of. What is Byon's last name? He didn't think it was any of Riggers business. We could go on and on here. But it's just better if you watch or listen for yourself. As Rigger put it; “I don't know why but I just love this guy! What a character!”. And here is the thing all the fishermen that have come across him from Three Forks to Fort Peck and we are sure where he is now, all say the same thing, AND they all give him water, fish and all kinds of other things and Bryon has yet to ever ask for any of that stuff! Ok, enough just go watch or listen to this podcast you will be glad you did!Links:Sorry, we still don't even know Bryon's last name let alone a website link or email!If you have any questions or thoughts about this podcast or ideas for future podcasts click here to email your old buddy Downrigger Dale.Support the showRemember to tune in to The Montana Outdoor Radio Show, live every Saturday from 6:00AM to 8:00AM MT.

We're off to the Midwest as we visit the city of Omaha, Nebraska and chat with Adam Straight, President & CEO of Metropolitan Entertainment & Convention Authority (MECA). Adam tells us all about MECA, which is a venue management company which manages city-owned properties including CHI Health Center Omaha (which includes an arena and convention center), Charles Schwab Field Omaha (which hosts the College World Series), and The RiverFront (72-acre urban green space along the Missouri River). We hear what makes each venue special and how their combined strength makes the city competitive when attracting events. Adam tells us about what makes Omaha special, trends he is seeing in the convention side of the industry, and we discuss the importance of sustainability with venues. We learn about Adam's history in the industry, which he started unconventionally as an electrician working sporting events at University of Maryland, eventually leading him to working at two of the top five convention centers in the country. Enjoy this episode which provides an interesting perspective of managing a diverse group of venues and is sure to add Omaha to your visit list.

In my mail appears a thoughtful gift, a book, inscribed to me by one of the authors: The Missouri: America's Longest River, edited by Jon K. Lauck and published by the Center for Western Studies, Augustana University. The chapters are various, from native forests to Indian-White conflict to big dams and their consequences, so let me focus on some pieces, then try to say something about the whole. If that's possible, because the more you read, the more you become conscious of our failure to comprehend, historically, the Missouri River as a whole.

It might come as a surprise, but an estimated 10,000 to 20,000 Mandan lived in and around the confluence of the Heart River and Missouri River in the 16th century. And the Heart River, particularly the area around the confluence, represented the “hearth” of the world and was important to their creation story.

Welcome to Wyuka Cemetery in Nebraska City. The city itself was founded in 1855 after the U.S. Army abandoned Fort Kearny just eight years earlier. Thanks to its spot on the Missouri River, it became a boomtown before the turn of the 20th century, bringing in settlers, steamboats, and later the railroad.One of those early families was the Hardings. Nehemiah and Mamie arrived that same year. He became the territory's first insurance agent and opened Nebraska's first bookstore. Together, they had 10 children and by the end of their lives were fondly remembered for their pioneering spirit. Their roll-top desk monument in Wyuka is a memorial to their family legacy, honoring their dedication to family and community. Read more about some of the other fascinating monuments at Wyuka Cemetery in Nebraska City on the Adventures in Cemetery Hopping Blog written by Traci Rylands here: https://adventuresincemeteryhopping.com//?s=nebraska+city&search=GoNeed an Ordinary Extraordinary Cemetery Podcast tee, hoodie or mug?

Arlene and Caite sit down this week with Morgan Tweet, CEO of IND Hemp in Fort Benton, Montana, discuss “growing” her young family, the industrial hemp industry, and a Black Angus cow-calf herd on about 1,200 acres along the Missouri River. IND Hemp, founded in 2019 with her father, employs about 55 people across two Montana locations and has worked with roughly 40 growers, managing over 30,000 hemp acres, with facilities for fiber decortication and seed processing. She explains hemp's three production categories (grain, fiber/biomass, and floral/cannabinoids), contrasting planting densities, compliance risk, and equipment needs, and addresses hemp's prohibition history. The company sells B2B hemp hearts, oil, protein, hurd (mainly animal bedding), and fiber for insulation, automotive panels, wipes, erosion control, and emerging textiles. She describes advocacy in DC, feed approval work for hemp seed meal in laying hens via the Hemp Feed Coalition, and her education efforts as “The Industry Mama,” alongside reflections on parenting, childcare, and ranch life.We're glad you're joining us for another episode of Barnyard Language.

Mark Twain said the Missouri River is too thick to drink and too thin to plow. The Big Muddy doesn't get the kind of attention the Mighty Mississippi does, but it's the longest river in North America and pivotal in the history of our nation. When it was time for Lisa Dill's family to replace the old pontoon boat on Lake Okoboji, her cousins suggested taking it on a journey down the Missouri and giving it away at the end. Dill jumped on board. She wrote about the experience and the river in 'Around the Bend: Floating Down the Missouri River.' Then, school's out for summer, but that doesn't mean we can't still learn. In the first installment of 'Talk of Iowa Summer School,' middle school science teacher Mark Dorhout shares how birdhouses can be a tool to encourage the next generation of citizen scientists.

These quick and informative episodes cover the commodity markets, weather, and the big things happening in agriculture each morning. Crude oil is down due to potential US-Iran peace deal talks. Overnight rains in the Corn Belt improved crop outlooks, and the USDA's June report showed no significant changes in old crop balances but noted an 18 million bushel drop in new crop wheat carryout. Corn sales rose, with Japan being a major buyer, while soybean sales declined. Live cattle and feeder cattle futures gained, and beef exports were robust. Severe weather warnings were issued for the Nebraska Panhandle, and Missouri River flood advisories were in effect. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit podcastchoices.com/adchoices

What do restaurant owners really think about customers? And what happens when a lifelong people-person—raised in the restaurant business, trained in psychology, and now leading tourism and community development—sits down for an honest conversation about modern life, parenting, hospitality, and America? In this episode of I Like That Story, Jeff Gould talks with Brittany Wagner, Tourism Director for Visit Yankton and a leader with Yankton Thrive in historic Yankton, South Dakota. Brittany's organization has invited Jeff to bring his acclaimed America's Story presentation to Yankton as part of the community's celebration surrounding America's 250th birthday—an especially meaningful event for one of the most historic communities in the Dakota Territory. Brittany shares her unique journey: * Growing up in her family's restaurant from the age of three * Working more than a decade as a mental health therapist for youth and families * Owning and operating a restaurant during the COVID era * Transitioning into tourism, storytelling, and community building through Visit Yankton and Yankton Thrive Together, Jeff and Brittany dive into: * The hidden psychology of restaurants and tipping * Restaurant cleanliness secrets diners never notice * Parenting in the smartphone and social media era * Gentle parenting vs. traditional parenting * Mental health challenges facing young people today * Why family dinners still matter * Storytelling, history, and preserving family memories * The beauty and challenges of small-town life * Why Yankton and the Missouri River region still matter in America's story The episode is funny, thoughtful, nostalgic, and surprisingly personal — blending restaurant stories, parenting insights, psychology, American history, and candid reflections about modern culture and human connection. Outside of work, Brittany and her husband Josh are raising four children while balancing the beautiful chaos of family life, youth sports, travel, hiking, and small-town living.

Feliks Banel's guest on this BONUS EPISODE of CASCADE OF HISTORY is David Nicandri, retired longtime director of the Washington State Historical Society, and prolific author on the era of explorers and exploration. For anyone who's ever wondered about the Missouri River and its impact on Pacific Northwest (or "Old Oregon Country") history, David Nicandri fills in the gaps, connects the dots and provides history and context for understanding how the geography and history fit together. From Lewis & Clark to the Astor Party, from the Oregon Trail to the Mullan Road, Nicandri weaves a rich tapestry of information and observations, indulging CASCADE OF HISTORY's Feliks Banel, who recently realized his knowledge of the Missouri River was deficient in many ways. This conversation was recorded on Wednesday, May 13, 2026.

Blackbird Hill rises quietly above the Missouri River, but beneath that calm view lies a history of poisoned power, violent betrayal, and a scream that some say still echoes every October.

In 1804, Meriwether Lewis and William Clark, along with 31 other men, set out on the Corps of Discovery expedition from a site just north of St. Louis, at the mouth of the Missouri River. A new book by historian Craig Fehrman, “This Vast Enterprise: A New History of Lewis & Clark,” draws on newly surfaced documents and oral histories to offer a more layered portrait of the expedition and the people involved.

Right now, crude oil flows unimpeded through the Dakota Access Pipeline under the dammed Missouri River in North Dakota. Construction of the pipeline that traverses Lake Oahe near the Standing Rock Sioux Reservation was a defeat for protestors who became known as “water protectors”. But the resistance against that pipeline that started ten years ago was a galvanizing moment for sovereignty and public awareness for Native Americans. It grew into a movement that eventually included thousands of Indigenous activists, tribal leaders, celebrities, and supporters from around the world. ICT News is among the outlets marking the 10-year anniversary of the #NoDAPL movement with a series of articles reflecting on the stand-off and assessing the lasting implications. We’ll hear about that and check in with people who were there.

Nobody Noticed #RTTBROS #Nightlight"For who hath despised the day of small things?" — Zechariah 4:10On May 14, 1804, thirty-three men quietly pushed off from a muddy riverbank in Illinois and started paddling west. No crowd gathered to watch. No newspaper covered it. No one gave a speech. Meriwether Lewis and William Clark simply looked at each other, gave the order, and the Corps of Discovery slipped into the current of the Missouri River without a single person calling it historic.Nobody noticed. And yet that quiet, unremarkable morning launched one of the greatest journeys of exploration in American history, opening up an entire continent and changing the course of a nation.I think about that a lot, especially in my work as a chaplain. I sit with people at the end of their lives, and I hear the same thing over and over. The moments they thought would matter most often didn't, and the moments nobody noticed, a kind word to a struggling child, a prayer said alone in a dark room, a quiet decision to keep going when quitting felt easier, those turned out to be the ones that changed everything.That's the heart of what Zechariah 4:10 is asking us. "Who hath despised the day of small things?" The answer, if we're honest, is most of us. We're waiting for the dramatic moment, the clear sign, the burning bush. And all the while God is working in the Tuesday mornings nobody writes about.Here's what I've learned, and I am too soon old and too late smart on this one: most of the great things God does in a life start so small that the person living it doesn't even recognize it as a beginning. The conversation that plants a seed. The scripture that quietly takes root. The small step of obedience that sets a whole new direction in motion.Friend, your Lewis and Clark moment may have already started. You may already be in the river and not know it yet. Don't despise the day of small things. Because history is just HIS story, and He has a way of making the unnoticed moments the ones that matter most.Let's pray: Lord, forgive us for waiting on the dramatic while You're working in the daily. Help us to be faithful in the small, quiet, unnoticed moments, trusting that You are doing something in us and through us that is far greater than we can see right now. In Jesus' name, Amen.#BibleWisdomDaily #ChristianWisdom #PracticalBiblicalWisdom #FaithfulInSmallThings #DailyDevotion #ScripturalWisdom #TrustGod #RTTBROS #NightlightBe sure to Like, Share, Follow and subscribe, it helps get the word out. https://linktr.ee/rttbrosSHOW NOTESEpisode Title: Nobody Noticed | Nightlight with RTTBROSEpisode Description: On May 14, 1804, the most important journey in American exploration began without a single person calling it historic. Tonight on Nightlight we pull that story alongside Zechariah 4:10 and ask a question that practical biblical wisdom has been asking for centuries: what if God is already doing something significant in your life right now, and you just don't recognize it as a beginning yet? This is bible wisdom daily for anyone who's been waiting on the dramatic while God is working in the daily.Scripture: Zechariah 4:10Full Transcript: see aboveReflection Questions:What small, quiet act of faithfulness have you been undervaluing because it doesn't feel significant enough?Looking back on your life, can you identify a moment that seemed unremarkable at the time but turned out to be a turning point God was orchestrating?What would it look like for you to show up faithfully in the small things this week, trusting God with the outcome you can't yet see?Connect: Be sure to Like, Share, Follow and subscribe, it helps get the word out. https://linktr.ee/rttbros

Send us Fan MailTwo hours into what should've been a normal MR340 training paddle on the Missouri River, our canoe flipped and everything got real fast: cold water, whitecaps, drifting gear, and a current that wouldn't let us “just kick to shore.” I'm Sigfre J Teagues, and I'm walking you through what happened with my buddy Joe, moment by moment, because the details are where the real lessons live. When you're training for the Missouri River 340, it's easy to obsess over cadence, nutrition, technique, and grit. Then the river hands you a test you didn't schedule.We talk about how wind plus current changes the entire equation, why overconfidence turns into cut corners, and how incomplete preparation shows up when chaos hits. You'll hear the hardest call I had to make: letting thousands of dollars of canoe and equipment float away so I could stay in position to help my partner. “People over possessions” sounds like a slogan until you're forced to prove it.After we get out, we debrief what we got wrong, what we got right, and why humility and community matter as much as toughness. If you're into endurance racing, river safety, resilience, or mindset training for hard things, this one lands.

Debby Monterrey talks with Josh Mogerman, Managing Director of Media and Public Affairs at the Natural Resources Defense Council, about major environmental policy shifts. The discussion focuses on the rollback of the EPA's 2009 Endangerment Finding and broader actions by the Environmental Protection Agency under the Trump administration. They break down how these changes could impact air quality, including increased emissions from coal plants across Missouri and the St. Louis region. Mogerman highlights concerns around sulfur dioxide and nitrogen oxides, with specific attention to the Labadie coal plant along the Missouri River near Six Flags St. Louis.

Send us Fan MailFind out more at bookclues.comTwo men got the highway signs—but the real Lewis and Clark Expedition story was a crowded canoe. We sit down with Craig Fehrman to discuss This Vast Enterprise: A New History of Lewis and Clark and why the expedition only comes into focus when we follow the people history usually pushes to the margins—and when we take Native nations seriously as powers, not scenery.If you care about American history, primary sources, archival research, and how interpretation changes when new evidence appears, this episode is for you. We explore Thomas Jefferson as the “mainspring” behind the mission, the mistaken dream of an easy water route to the Pacific, and the hard reality of distance, terrain, and the Rocky Mountains.We also dive into diplomacy and danger along the Missouri River, where the Lakota Nation and other Native powers were making strategic decisions of their own. Fehrman's rotating point-of-view method makes familiar moments feel new by asking what the same event looked like from the other side.We discuss leadership and military culture in 1804—why Lewis and Clark's style of discipline, trust, and shared responsibility differed sharply from Army norms—and how figures like John Ordway helped make the expedition function day to day. We also confront the hardest truths, including York under enslavement and Sacagawea as a teenage survivor whose role became indispensable.Subscribe, share with a history-loving friend, and leave a review so more listeners can find the show.

Host Diana Korte speaks with historian Craig Fehrman whose newest title, THIS VAST ENTERPRISE, is a major revisionist history of the Lewis and Clark years-long expedition that began in 1804.   Commissioned by President Thomas Jefferson who fought bitter Congressional unrest to get the funding for it, this group of 45 or so traveled up the Missouri River from St. Louis to the Pacific Ocean in Oregon.  Each chapter moves to a different person's point of view, showcasing the many characters beyond the two leaders who flesh out the story of this expedition.   Among the many research innovations the author brings to this book are lost documents, Native perspectives, and oral history passed down over centuries.

May we resolve to live not by lies, political correctness, wokeness, or ‘repressive tolerance‘ by any name. May we live by the Truth alone, and may God have mercy on us. Political correctness is communist propaganda writ small. In my study of communist societies, I came to the conclusion that the purpose of communist propaganda was not to persuade or convince, nor to inform, but to humiliate; and therefore, the less it corresponded to reality the better. When people are forced to remain silent when they are being told the most obvious lies, or even worse when they are forced to repeat the lies themselves, they lose once and for all their sense of probity. To assent to obvious lies is to co-operate with evil, and in some small way to become evil oneself. One’s standing to resist anything is thus eroded, and even destroyed. A society of emasculated liars is easy to control. I think if you examine political correctness, it has the same effect and is intended to. — Theodore Dalrymple (Anthony Daniels) Frontpage Magazine interview (August 31, 2005) But what saith it? The word is nigh thee, [even] in thy mouth, and in thy heart: that is, the word of faith, which we preach; That if thou shalt confess with thy mouth the Lord Jesus, and shalt believe in thine heart that God hath raised him from the dead, thou shalt be saved. For with the heart man believeth unto righteousness; and with the mouth confession is made unto salvation. For the scripture saith, Whosoever believeth on him shall not be ashamed. For there is no difference between the Jew and the Greek: for the same Lord over all is rich unto all that call upon him. For whosoever shall call upon the name of the Lord shall be saved. — Romans 10:8-13 KJV Jesus saith unto him, I am the way, the truth, and the life: no man cometh unto the Father, but by me. — John 14:6 KJV Links Videos / Clips [x] = Played Triggered!

Coates, who lives in Miami, responded to the president's affections on social media. “Yes I'm married,” she wrote alongside a laughing face emoji. A HuffPost analysis released on March 28 found that Trump's golf excursions have cost the taxpayer at least $101.2 million in travel and security expenses since his return to office in January last year. All of Trump's wives have been younger than him. He married his current wife, first lady Melania Trump, in 2005. She is 55, 24 years younger than her husband. Before Melania, there was Marla Maples, who is 62. His first wife, Ivanka Trump,[sic] died at 73 in July 2022.

So much of what is happening these days seems utterly nonsensical, from Trump’s war crime and profanity-laced Easter rant, to the whipsaw on Iran. So, is it simply Occam’s razor, or is there more going on here than we’re led to believe? Since I entered politics, I have chiefly had men’s views confided to me privately. Some of the biggest men in the United States, in the field of commerce and manufacture, are afraid of somebody, are afraid of something. They know that there is a power somewhere so organized, so subtle, so watchful, so interlocked, so complete, so pervasive, that they had better not speak above their breath when they speak in condemnation of it. — President Woodrow Wilson, The New Freedom: A Call for the Emancipation of the Generous Energies of a People (1913) The real truth of the matter is, as you and I know, that a financial element in the larger centers has owned the Government ever since the days of Andrew Jackson — and I am not wholly excepting the Administration of W. W. The country is going through a repetition of Jackson’s fight with the Bank of the United States — only on a far bigger and broader basis. — President Franklin D. Roosevelt, letter to Col. Edward Mandell House (21 November 1933); as quoted in F.D.R.: His Personal Letters, 1928-1945, edited by Elliott Roosevelt (New York: Duell, Sloan and Pearce, 1950), pg. 373 I would suggest nothing we’re seeing, including (especially) the seemingly nonsensical, is ‘accidental’ or coincidental. It is PSYOP/PSWAR, a potent toxic mixture of POSIWID and chaos theory designed and intended to rapidly produce maximum chaos resulting in a ‘Clash of Civilizations‘ and The End of History and the Last Man, to ultimately bring about a ‘Novus Ordo Seclorum’1234 a la Genesis 11 → Genesis 6 → culminating in Psalm 2 → Revelation 19.

Needless to say, this is not what Washington, Madison, Adams, Jefferson, and Franklin had in mind when they founded the US Constitutional Republic. Members of the US government—as well as We the People—should think about the reflections of multiple Roman authors who regarded the total annihilation of Carthage as an outrage and repudiation of Rome's republican values and virtues. In the Aeneid, Virgil frames the Punic Wars as a fateful conflict initiated by the Punic Queen Dido’s curse on Aeneas’s descendants. I interpret this as Virgil's way of condemning the “unspeakable” destruction of Carthage. The American people should be aware of the fact that if our US government does indeed annihilate the Iranian nation forever, it will certainly have a vast array of terrible consequences for us and for all of mankind. Among other disasters, it is likely that millions of Iranians will be forced to flee to other lands, including those of Europe. Many young men who see their mothers, fathers, brothers, sisters suffer will be animated with a burning desire for revenge. I anticipate great horrors ahead for all of us.

Follow Quentin Connealy on XConnect with Q on LinkedIn"Between 2 Farms" PodcastI've known Quentin Connealy just from following him online for several years now. Not only is he an entrepreneurial, forward-thinking farmer, but he's also one of the nicest people in ag that you'll find online. I've been meaning to get him on the podcast for a while, and I'm making more of an effort this year to talk to farmers like him about farm-level innovation this year, so it was the perfect time. We'll get right into it here, but first just some helpful background on Q: Quentin Connealy is a fifth-generation farmer from eastern Nebraska, where he raises irrigated corn and soybeans along the Missouri River with his family at QJ Connealy Family Farms. Deeply rooted in production agriculture, Quentin focuses on bridging the gap between traditional farming and emerging technology—bringing real-world perspective to how innovation is adopted on working farms.With a background in interactive media and business, Quentin has become a vocal advocate for precision agriculture, data ownership, automation, and practical ag-tech solutions that deliver value at the farm gate. He regularly works with technology companies, researchers, and policymakers to test, validate, and communicate what actually works in the field.He gained international fame in May 2017 after a video of him wakeboarding in a flooded ditch on the edge of his cornfield went viral, amassing millions of views within days. Since that time, Quentin has become an active speaker and content creator, sharing honest conversations about grower adoption, sustainability, and the future of food and farming. Just this year he launched a new podcast of his own called “Between 2 Farms” with co-host Nathan Faleide.

In September 1992, Tammy Haas was 19 and figuring out her next step in life. After attending a homecoming celebration in Yankton, South Dakota, she and her on-again-off-again boyfriend crossed the Missouri River to a farm party in Nebraska. By morning, Tammy was missing. Five days later, her body was discovered in a ravine near a golf course just across the state line. A broken neck. Conflicting statements. A trial that ended without conviction. More than thirty years later, silence still lingers in Yankton, and investigators believe there are people who know what happened that night. This Case Snapshot is dedicated to the memory of Tammy Haas. Produced by James Wolner. Research assistance by Mari Zoerb Hansen.

Photo: Dr. Jennifer Pierce with an Anchorage Fire Department vehicle on January 9, 2026. Pierce and the vehicle are part of a new program that will offer addiction treatment to those who overdose. (Matt Faubion / Alaska Public Media) Alaska is launching pilot programs in Anchorage and Juneau to offer addiction treatment in mobile care units. Emergency responders will give people medication to help them survive after an overdose. Indigenous Alaskans die of overdose at about three times the rate of white Alaskans. Alaska Public Media's health reporter Rachel Cassandra has more. Dr. Jennifer Pierce shows off a new SUV for the Anchorage fire department's pilot program. “We want people to see us as a beacon of help.” Pierce has a simple mission: to treat Anchorage residents who overdose and connect them with care afterwards. For the first time in a mobile unit in Alaska, responders can give patients the medication buprenorphine, which reduces withdrawals and can get patients on the road to recovery. “We don’t want people to fall through the cracks.” Narcan, or naloxone, is used to reverse overdoses, but it puts people into withdrawal. And research shows that offering that second medication, buprenorphine, makes it more likely patients will enter long-term recovery. But Pierce says even if people don't continue treatment, the medication reduces the risk of a second overdose in the days immediately following – a dangerous window, according to research. She hopes the program saves lives. “Even if it’s just one life. Right? We’re saving lives out there and preventing individuals, maybe from overdosing the next day or overdosing again later and dying.” Pierce visited successful programs in Texas and Washington for ideas and best practices to replicate in Alaska. Dr. Quigley Peterson says he's also seen the healing benefits of buprenorphine. He's an emergency room physician heading Juneau's mobile pilot program. He says he's confident it will do well partly because he's seen how helpful the medication can be in the emergency room. “We have something that can help engage people, that’s super safe and it’s cheap, and that it works.” He says they'll collect data over the year to see what happens to patients after they're given buprenorphine for an overdose. His hope is that it reduces emergency room visits and calls for emergency medical care. If the pilots are successful, Peterson's goal is to inspire similar programs in more communities across Alaska.

(Courtesy Sayetsitty Family / GoFundMe) A Navajo man was facing the tribe's criminal justice system after allegedly driving drunk and killing a three-year-old boy at a Christmas parade on the reservation. As KJZZ's Gabriel Pietrorazio reports, U.S. authorities are now stepping in to prosecute him in federal court. 67-year-old Stanley Begay Jr. was charged with vehicular manslaughter and could have faced up to a year in prison and a $500,000 fine.  Now a grand jury in Arizona is handing him three counts, including second-degree murder, stemming from the death of three-year-old Karson Apodoca. Begay was taken into federal custody by FBI agents last week. The agency's Phoenix Field Office is seeking photos and videos from that incident that can be used in the case against Begay, who has been assigned a Flagstaff attorney. Dignity of Earth and Sky is a sculpture on a bluff overlooking the Missouri River near Chamberlain, S.D. (Courtesy SDPB) Following the 2026 State of the Tribes address in South Dakota, Gov. Larry Rhoden (R-SD) met with over 50 dignitaries from eight of the state’s nine tribes. SDPB’s C.J. Keene reports. Gov. Rhoden says he left the private meeting feeling optimistic about the future of state-tribal relations. “There were things that we were palms up with them as far as some of the concerns, some of the areas we disagreed on. We agreed to disagree, and we had more conversation. As we walked out of the room, we had built a relationship, and I think that we'll continue to build on that. It was a product of open, honest conversation.” State-tribal relations effectively collapsed during the administration of former Gov. Kristi Noem (R-SD), who was at one point banned from every single reservation in the state. That came following tribal sovereignty disputes during the pandemic and Gov. Noem commenting that Native children “had no hope”. @nativevoiceoneRosebud Sioux Tribe President Kathleen Wooden Knife delivered South Dakota’s annual State of the Tribes address to lawmakers.

On Saturday, November 16, 1996, thirty-six year old Sandra Jacobson and her five year old son, John, went mysteriously missing from Bismarck, ND.  After arriving late for dinner at her parents home, Sandy left to fill her gas tank and never returned.  Neither she nor John have been seen again.The following morning her car was found abandoned in a parking lot adjacent to the Missouri River, which was nearly frozen over.  The initial investigation found claims that Sandy might have been suffering from a mental health crisis and may have jumped into the river with her child.However, it was soon learned that Sandy had called the Bismarck Police Department hours before her disappearance.  She informed them that there was a satanic cult operating on a farm not far from her home and she felt her son was in danger from them.  She hung up shortly thereafter and her claims were never investigated.A new investigator, nearly a decade later, would break the case open, wondering if perhaps Sandy's disappearance might have something to do with her estranged husband and several inaccurate statements he'd previously made to detectives.  Was Sandy the victim of foul play or did a loving mother, in the midst of a mental health crisis, commit an unthinkable act?FollowTEPod.comClick here to Submit a Question for the Trace Evidence Q&A episodeFollow Trace Evidence on Social MediaTwitter --- Instagram --- TikTok --- YouTube --- Like Facebook Page --- Join Facebook Group --- Threads --- Like MeWe Page --- Join MeWe Group --- BlueskySuppport Trace EvidencePatreon --- Paypal --- Cash App --- Buy Me A CoffeeTrace Evidence Merch ShopsTeePublic --- ShopTEPod --- SpreadshopAll Other LinksOfficial Trace Evidence Website --- LinkTreeMusic Courtesy of:"Lost Time"  Kevin MacLeod (incompetech.com) Licensed under Creative Commons: By Attribution 3.0 License http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/3.0/"Echoes of Time" Kevin MacLeod (incompetech.com) Licensed under Creative Commons: By Attribution 3.0 License http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/3.0/"Galactic Rap" Kevin MacLeod (incompetech.com) Licensed under Creative Commons: By Attribution 3.0 License http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/3.0/#truecrimepodcast #unsolvedmysteries #coldcase #coldcaseinvestigation #murder #murdermystery #missingperson #missingpersons #truecrimecommunity #mysterypodcast #truecrime #coldcasefiles #truecrimestories #crimelovers #truecrimeaddict #truecrimejunkie #crimescene #justiceforall #missing #crimesquad #podcastcommunity #sleuthsunite #darkhistories #criminalmindset #detective #detectivediaries #forensics #forensicfiles #crimestories #crimepodcast #traceevidence #traceevidencepodcast #criminalinvestigation #justiceforvictims #detectivework #truecrimediscussion #podcastfamily #listenandsolve #crimefans #listentotraceevidence #uncoverthetruth #podcastrecommendations #podcastlove #podcastlife #truecrimeobsessed #followtheclues #cluefinders #podcastaddict #unsolvedmurders #unsolveddisappearances #detectiveatheart #jointheinvestigation #disappearance #vanishing #abduction #gonemissing #upandvanished #pacheco #stevenpacheco #podcasting #crimetalk #crimeanalysis #theories #sandrajacobson #sandyjacobson #johnjacobson #bismarck #northdakota #bismarcknd #alanjacobsonBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/trace-evidence--3207798/support.

Clay's conversation with Nat and Mikey, schoolteachers from Britain, who are floating down the Missouri and Mississippi Rivers from Three Forks, Montana, all the way to St. Louis and beyond, with hopes of ending in New Orleans around the time of Mardi Gras. They recount their adventures so far. At the time of the interview, they were just north of Pierre, South Dakota, staying for one night in a resort motel on Lake Oahe. What have they learned about America, about Lewis and Clark, about Native Americans, about their relationship, and about themselves? They capsized on day two just north of Three Forks, but have managed to stay upright ever since, and they are confident they will be able to float all the way to the mouth of the Mississippi. This episode was recorded on September 30, 2025.

St. Louis Magazine editor Nick Phillips spent three days kayaking across the state of Missouri in the MR340, the world's longest nonstop paddling race.

Send us a textGolf trips aren't just about the courses—they're about the journey, the unexpected discoveries, and the stories you'll tell forever. Our recent expedition through America's heartland delivered all this and more as we ventured through South Dakota, Nebraska, and Iowa to play some of the most talked-about new courses in golf.The adventure took us from Dakota Dunes, where we attempted (and failed) to drive balls across the Missouri River, to the nearly mythical Landman Golf Club—perhaps the hardest public tee time to secure in America. Navigating dirt roads through endless cornfields, we discovered a golf course that encourages creativity above all else, where the infamous "Landman Bounce" had us aiming at seemingly absurd targets to let the land work its magic. We invented "Farm," a putting game that might become your new favorite way to spend time on the practice green with friends.Our journey continued to Tatanka on Native American land (complete with "ditch weed" growing throughout the property) and culminated at The Prairie Club, where the Pines and Dunes courses sparked heated debates about which deserved the higher ranking. Throughout it all, we encountered small-town America at its most authentic—from gas station treasures to our first taste of Runzas, the regional delicacy that had us stopping multiple times for more. With nearly 1,000 miles logged in five days and eight rounds played, this trip reminded us why golf travel creates memories that last a lifetime.What's your dream golf destination? Have you explored America's heartland courses? We'd love to hear about your own discoveries and adventures as we continue our endless pursuit of golf's hidden treasures.Special thank goes out to our show sponsors:
