In this episode of American Potential, host David From sits down with Nebraska Governor Jim Pillen at the Big Sky Bright Future Economic Summit to talk about how the Cornhusker State is powering its economy through energy, innovation, and old-fashioned Nebraska work ethic. Governor Pillen outlines his vision for a leaner, more competitive state government—cutting bureaucracy, reducing spending by 10%, and running government like a business to give taxpayers more value for their money. He also shares how Nebraska's economy is thriving across multiple sectors—from agriculture and ethanol to insurance, banking, and renewable energy. With bold carbon-sequestration projects, a growing ethanol industry, and a strong commitment to entrepreneurship, Governor Pillen explains how Nebraska is positioning itself for long-term growth while staying true to its roots: faith, family, and freedom. It's a conversation about leadership, service, and why Nebraskans continue to do things “the Nebraska way.”

Yhdysvaltalaisartisti Bruce Springsteenin uran nivelvaiheeseen sijoittuva, tositapahtumiin ja samannimiseen Warren Zanesin kirjaan perustuva Deliver Me from Nowhere -elokuva kuvaa Springsteeniä vuoden 1982 Nebraska-albumin tekovaiheessa. Tuolloin nuori maailmantähteyden kynnyksellä oleva muusikko paini sekä menestyspaineiden että menneisyyden mörköjen kanssa. Nebraskan hän äänitti vaatimattomissa oloissa neliraiturilla New Jerseyn -kodissaan, ja sitä pidetään Springsteenin ajattomimpana tuotoksena. Deliver Me from Nowhere -elokuvan pääosaa esittää Shameless ja The Bear -tv-sarjoista parhaiten tunnettu Jeremy Allen White, ja leffan on käsikirjoittanut ja ohjannut mm. Crazy Heart -kantrielokuvasta tunnettu Scott Cooper. Millaisen dramatisoinnin elokuva piirtää tositapahtumista sekä itse “Pomosta” ja hänen elämänvaiheistaan? Onko vaikeuksien kautta voittoon sankari jo aikansa elänyt trooppi vain onnistuuko elokuva tuomaan jotain uutta hyvin vaihtelevien ja usein epäonnistuneiden elämänkertaelokuvien kaanoniin? Miten elokuva onnistuu kommentoimaan nykyaikaa, ja miksi Springsteen on noussut niin isoksi, ja jopa uskonnollista hurmosta faneiltaa saavaksi ilmiöksi sekä muusikoksi? Kulttuuriykkönen kutsuu vieraikseen keskustelemaan aiheesta musiikkitoimittaja Susanna Vainiolan, muusikko-kuvataiteilija Sampsa Sarparannan sekä elokuvakriitikko Leena Virtasen. Juhani Kenttämaa toimittaa.

When Greg Wagner's great-great-grandmother made her dying wish to be buried not in a cemetery but beneath an oak tree on their Nebraska homestead, she planted more than roots in the soil. Greg is a sixth-generation Nebraskan whose family has maintained the same land for 158 years through blizzards, armed robberies, and economic crashes. As someone who's spent 46 years caring for Nebraska's natural resources through the Game and Parks Commission, Greg brings a unique perspective on how place shapes family identity. We explore how his grandmother's death in 2005 launched his genealogical journey, uncover the resilience required to keep land in a family for over a century and a half, and discover why every single Wagner descendant has chosen to remain in Nebraska. This conversation reveals how the stories we inherit from our ancestors become the compass that guides future generations home.〰️

Soda and energy drinks would no longer be eligible for purchase through the Supplemental Nutrition and Assistance Program in Nebraska under proposed regulations from the state's Department of Health and Human Services. At a hearing Tuesday, advocates said the restrictions could hurt grocery stores and stigmatize Nebraskans who use SNAP. “Implementing the SNAP restriction waiver will lead to fewer food retailers accepting SNAP, thereby causing a significant number of Nebraskan families, including those with children, veterans, people with disabilities and the elderly, to face even greater barriers when trying to put food on the table,” said Madison Castor with Nebraska Appleseed.

Attorney General Mike Hilgers Files Lawsuit Against General Motors for Deceptive Collection and Sale of Nebraskans' Driving Data LINCOLN — On July 8, 2025, Nebraska Attorney General Mike Hilgers announced that the State of Nebraska has filed a lawsuit against General Motors LLC and OnStar LLC for unlawfully collecting, processing, and selling sensitive driving data from Nebraskans without their knowledge or consent. The lawsuit, filed in Lancaster County District Court, alleges that GM engaged in deceptive and unconscionable business practices in violation of the Nebraska Consumer Protection Act and Uniform Deceptive Trade Practices Act. According to the lawsuit, GM installed telematics systems in its vehicles that tracked a wide array of data points, including speed, seatbelt usage, driving habits, and location. GM then packaged and sold that data to third-party data brokers, who used it to create “Driving Scores” for millions of drivers. These scores were later sold to insurance companies and used to raise rates, deny coverage, or cancel policies, all without Nebraska drivers ever knowing such data was being collected or used against them. Among the key allegations: * GM deceived consumers at the point of sale by misrepresenting the nature and scope of the OnStar-connected services. * Consumers were often misled into believing enrollment in OnStar was mandatory to access basic safety features. * GM failed to adequately disclose that enrollment in its mobile apps or Connected Vehicle Services would allow the company to collect and sell detailed personal data. * Dealership employees were incentivized to enroll customers without proper disclosure and, in some cases, without any consent at all. “Nebraskans deserve to work with companies that are truthful and honest about what they are doing,” Attorney General Hilgers said. “That is not what happened here, and we filed this lawsuit because one large company decided that it wouldn't honestly tell Nebraskans that their data was going to be used to impact their insurance rates. This is wrong. Our office will hold companies that mislead Nebraskans accountable, no matter how large.” The complaint seeks civil penalties, restitution for impacted Nebraskans, and injunctive relief to prevent GM and OnStar from continuing these practices in the state.

Reality is clashing with the narrative elite institutions have pushed on the country for years—and the American people are finally waking up and choosing sanity. Despite what corporate media claimed about the “No Kings” protests reflecting majority sentiment last weekend, the lack of energy and cohesion was clear. Ignore the shouting from all fronts—protesters, Democrat politicians, and the media. A majority of voters approve of the Trump administration's deportation efforts. Fifty-six percent (56%) of respondents to a recent Napolitan News Service survey said they either strongly or somewhat approve of the deportation of illegal aliens from the United States. While Los Angeles Mayor Karen Bass warns the Immigration and Customs Enforcement deportations are a bad idea because entire sectors of the economy “could not function without immigrant labor,” more than 90% of the jobs at one facility were taken back by legal Nebraskans just days after a major ICE raid. Turns out Americans will do the work—they just have to be offered the opportunity. On this week's episode of Problematic Women, we're diving into the growing clash between elite narratives and everyday reality—from college grads struggling in a broken job market, to ICE enforcement restoring American jobs, to pop culture's identity crisis with stars like Sabrina Carpenter. It's a full spectrum of chaos, clarity, and the quiet return of common sense.

We talked with Lance Nielsen, Executive Director at the Nebraskans for the Arts.  The DOGE cuts to the arts, humanities and culture are an important topic making deep and permanent problems for our local Theatres and Creatives.  If you aren't aware of what has been happening, or if you want to hear more about it because there is a lot to read out there, we have put it into podcast format for you to listen and easily take in.  It will take all of us working together to advocate and save the already allocated for funding for the arts.  We can talk to our US and State Senators, and work on building relationships with them, so they understand the direct impact it is having on our state. We hope to have Lance back on the podcast again and will continue coverage of this very important issue affecting all Creatives in our country.   NEBRASKANS FOR THE ARTS CONTACT INFO: Website: https://www.nebraskansforthearts.org/  GO TO:  The NFTA Action Center: https://www.nebraskansforthearts.org/nebraska-arts-advocacy-network/ Facebook:  https://www.facebook.com/nebraskansforthearts/  Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/neb4thearts/  Twitter: https://twitter.com/Neb4TheArts  Address: PO Box 8517, Omaha, NE 68018 PH: 402.817.8176   LISTEN TO THE PLATTE RIVER BARD PODCAST  Listen at https://platteriverbard.podbean.com or anywhere you get your podcasts.  We are on Apple, Google, Pandora, Spotify, iHeart Radio, Podbean, Overcast, Listen Now, Castbox and anywhere you get your podcasts.

CHI Good Samaritan hospital in Kearney just upgraded its NICU. Tele-health neonatologists and new equipment can provide more specialized care, lower the number of babies that need to be transferred to Lincoln or Omaha hospitals.

A proposal banning certain forms of hemp and so-called synthetic cannabis was passed over Friday before a vote could be taken. The bill's sponsor, Sen. Kathleen Kauth, made the decision after it appeared there would not be the votes necessary to overcome a filibuster attempt. Progressives filed motions to stop an amendment clarifying that the bill wouldn't supersede the medical marijuana initiatives Nebraskans passed in November from being added to the bill. Sen. Ben Hansen, who voted for the bill on the first two rounds, said without the amendment, he couldn't support it moving forward.

SEAN CALLAHAN is the owner and publisher of HuskerOnline, which is a media company covering Nebraska football, affiliated with the On3 Network.  We talk here aboutcovering Huskers football, which is the biggest and most popular game in the state; about the access issues all journalists are dealing with; about his new book; Scott Frost and much more.   Callahan is a native Nebraskan who also covers Huskers football for other outlets in the state, including KETV, KFAB and NPM. Interview conducted May 29, 2025

Nebraska has seen a steady increase in calls to 9-8-8, a number that connects people to counselors that can provide crisis support for mental health concerns, substance abuse disorders, loneliness and more. In fiscal year 2023, there were about 19,000 calls to the 988 Suicide & Crisis Lifeline from Nebraskans. In 2024, just over 23,000 Nebraskans called in. There have been around 20,000 calls in the current fiscal year, representing a 14% increase in monthly calls compared to last year.

 We talked with Ty & Nick of The Talbott Brothers in this episode, and it was an amazing time chatting with fellow Nebraskans and songwriters.  We chatted about finishing each other's sentences, their grassroots beginning, the payoff of persistence, and the Nebraskan stiff upper lip. We also have a great conversation about their new album AVAILABLE EVERYWHERE TODAY: "Borderlands."  The Talbott Brothers, hailing from the heartland of Imperial, Nebraska, embody the heart and soul of Americana, Folk/Rock, Soul, Blues and Country with their blue-collar grit and unapologetic authenticity. Grounded in the character of their rural upbringing, brothers Nick and Ty Talbott have built a name for themselves with their soul-stirring lyrics, sibling blood harmonies, and rich melodies that represent the ebbs and flows of life.   After years of soaking in Portland's eclectic energy, the brothers felt a strong calling back to their Midwest roots. Returning to their small town of 2,000 people, they realizedthat their unchanged hometown had been instrumental in their own evolution.   This revelation led to the creation of their new album Borderlands, set to dropon Friday, May 16, 2025. The record navigates the emotional frontiers suggested by its name — where heartbreak leads to healing, grief discovers joy, sadness gives way to happiness, anger finds forgiveness, and indifference becomes love. It's a sonic exploration of finding the courage to leave home, while always carrying a piece of it with you.  Check them out here:  Website: thetalbottbrothers.com  IG: Talbottbrothers  TikTok: Talbottbrothers  FB: The Talbott Brothers  And find Ty's Podcast Similar Vein here: https://similarveinpodcast.transistor.fm/

A bill from Sen. Victor Rountree would have allowed all individuals convicted of felonies to become eligible for the Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program after completing their sentences. Currently, Nebraska allows those with two or fewer felonies for drug use and possession to receive benefits, but those with drug distribution felonies remain banned. Rountree's bill would have made around 1,000 new Nebraskans eligible. It passed the final round of debate Wednesday with 32 votes but was vetoed by Pillen soon afterward. Rountree said he wasn't surprised.

Nebraska's horsemen are off to the races at Legacy Downs in Lincoln this Friday, the racetrack's first day of its live meet. They will host around 90 races in the next five weeks, helping keep Nebraskan horse owners, jockeys and caretakers in the state while generating more betting revenue.

Mental health counselor and community activist, Elaine Wells, talks about her work as a counselor - helping couples find relationship harmony - and what drew her to that field. Wells also shares her evolution from being raised in a conservative Southern Baptist faith to Unitarian Universalism and how that religion of love and humanism aligns with her values and a calling to community activism.Elaine Wells, as a mental health counselor, especially enjoys helping couples to create and maintain happy, healthy relationships. Wells has long been a community activist - advocating for world peace, inclusive justice, and a sustainable environment, working with groups including Nebraskans for Peace, RESULTS, and Omaha Together One Community (often referenced as OTOC).

Having grown up in East Texas as a Southern Baptist, she converted to Unitarian Universalism in 1970, and this religion of love and humanism has been a huge part of her evolution.

The effort to regulate medical marijuana in Nebraska faced a setback Thursday afternoon in the Unicameral.
