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). Wells created a Dialogue process to bring people together for constructive conversations on controversial topics, facilitating Pro-Life/Pro-Choice, Black-White, Conservative-Liberal; and Racism in Omaha dialogues. 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.

You have this individual who had never identified herself as an artist until several years ago, and now she's and award-winning artist.Growing up, she was homeschooled with her seven siblings, living life as a fifth generation Nebraskan rancher (she still is actually). But she finds her voice as an artist and just kind of had this insane, meteoric rise from 2021 until now where she wins the best of show award from the Mountain Oyster Club and starts getting invited to all of these different shows and being represented by important galleries across the West.Fast forward to today and Rachel is this kind of phenomenon in the art world, working with charcoal like nobody has before. A person who had no training in art other than her own ambition to learn and to create like crazy. This is a great story. I mean, it's shows that if you're committed to what you want to do in life, you can absolutely do it with enough hard work. She has two kids, she's married to a rancher and still works the ranch to some extent, but really is now a full-time artist, spending eight plus hours a day drawing in the studio.We go through this whole story of how she got where she is now and what she's currently working on. I myself am very excited that Rachel is going to be a part of my Masters of Drawing Group Exhibition in February 2025.So there you have it. Really interesting story. I hope you like it.

Before we get into today's episode, a word from our sponsor, which is... Well, it's us, but we're highlighting ads we've written and produced for our clients, so here's one of those. [Out Of This World Plumbing Ad] Dave Young: Welcome back to the Empire Builders podcast. Dave Young here along with Stephen Semple. And as we record this, it is the morning. Stephen Semple: You're not excited on this one! Dave Young: Dude, come on. Come on. It's the morning of November 4th. Stephen Semple: And what happens tomorrow? Dave Young: Tomorrow we have a little election in the United States. The topic that Stephen whispered into my ear just as we started was Twitter. Let's talk about Twitter. Stephen Semple: Twitter. Dave Young: And I go to Elon Musk. I'm like, oh God. So please, let's do talk about Twitter and let's talk about their origins and not their demise. Stephen Semple: See, I thought you would be more excited. Because the real driver behind Twitter is a guy by the name of Evan Williams, and he grew up in Nebraska. Dave Young: Did he really? Stephen Semple: Yes! You didn't know about that. Dave Young: I thought he was a New York City guy. Because he started it with... It was like an emergency alert thing. Stephen Semple: Well, that's one of the things that kicked it in the high gear. But no, he grew up in a farm in Nebraska. Dave Young: Where? What town? Stephen Semple: Oh God, of course you're going to ask me that. I don't know what town. Dave Young: Because I know people everywhere. Stephen Semple: I automatically assume that you would know this part. Dave Young: I didn't know that. Every Nebraskan knows someone who knows every other Nebraskan. That's just like, it's a third degree of separation. Stephen Semple: But I figured in a place like Nebraska, everyone would know where this dude was from because of how big Twitter is. Dave Young: No, I don't. Please do tell. Stephen Semple: Okay. So the primary driver was Evan Williams, but also Jack Dorsey and Noah Glass and Stone played very, very big roles in the starting of Twitter. But Evan grew up, as I said on a farm in Nebraska, and he wasn't into sports, but he always knew he kind of wanted to do a business. And because of that, he read a lot of business books. And in particular, he read some marketing books, and he decided he wanted to learn more as he read a book by pretty famous marketing guy named Gary Halbert. And he said, "You know what? I want to learn more." So he literally drove to Key West Florida and basically walked into Gary's office and said, "I want a job working for you." Dave Young: I'm telling you, that's a bit of a drive from Nebraska. Stephen Semple: Yeah, it is. It is. So here's this farm boy from Nebraska showing up at Gary Halbert's office. And Gary basically gave him a writing assignment, said, "Fine, here, do this writing assignment. See how you do." And it was so good, Gary actually thought he had someone write it for him. He's like, no, no, no. Dave Young: This is before AI. Stephen Semple: Yeah, exactly. Actually, if it was written by AI, he wouldn't have accepted it. But anyway, that's a whole different issue. So Gary hires him, and he works there for about seven months. Learns a whole bunch of stuff and returns to Nebraska. And he returns Nebraska, it's the early nineties, and he decides he wants to start a website business. So he's trying to sell websites to local businesses. Now, at this point, he's in Lincoln, Nebraska. I don't know whether that's where he's from,

Emma hosts Jeet Heer, national affairs correspondent for The Nation, to round up the week in news just 4 days out from the 2024 Election. First, Emma runs through updates on early voting numbers, swing state polling, SCOTUS taking up Pennsylvania's ballot case, Trump's visit to Dearborn, TPUSA's voting drives, Israel's ongoing slaughter in Gaza and destruction of Lebanon, the Boeing machinists' labor push, Texan fascism, and the devastating flash floods in Spain, before watching Hannity and Newt Gingrich happily join the “affirming women's fears about conservative men” party. Jeet Heer then joins, here, at the end of all things, as he and Emma dive deep into the contradicting trends around the incoming US presidential election, first tackling Harris' major gap among undecided voters due to her implicit support for Biden's genocide in Gaza (as well as the greater insistence by the Democratic party to cede ground on anti-imperialism), before shifting to the ongoing war on “gender” grounds, with Trump attempting to court young white male voters with his fascist paternalism, including some odd outreach to the elite gay white man constituency. Wrapping up, Jeet and Emma parse through the potentials as they assess the future of the progressive fight under either a Trump or a Harris presidency. And in the Fun Half: Emma talks with Charles from Nashville about his father's consumption of conservative media, unpacks the constant pervasion of Israel's apartheid onto its Israeli Jewish population, and discusses the Green Party's questionable stances with Ethan from Washington. Joe Rogan sees Islam as the biggest threat to the US democracy, Trump-Epstein leaks come out, and Kowalski from Nebraska chats about his final harvest and the state of Nebraskan politics. Ramaswamay gets a lesson in taking out the trash, Charlie Kirk has some thoughts about women who dare undermine their husbands, plus, your calls and IMs!

It's Hump Day! Sam speaks with David Dayen, executive editor at The American Prospect, & Matt Stoller of the American Economic Liberties Project and author of the BIG newsletter on SubStack, to discuss their new podcast endeavor entitled "Organized Money". First, Sam runs through updates on the impending US presidential election, Israel's ongoing slaughter in Lebanon, backlash to Israeli aggression from the US and UK, the Boeing machinist strike, the 2024 election scheme, the Elon-Adelson money machine, Hurricane Helene's missing persons, Nebraskan voter rolls, and Jerry Seinfeld's musings on the state of comedy, also watching Sean Hannity attempt to run cover for Trump's disastrous appearance discussing policy at the Economic Club of Chicago. David Dayen and Matt Stoller then join, diving right into the roots of their new podcast “Organized Money” in contextualizing and unpacking the evolution of a new, justice-oriented approach to business and the role it plays in modern society. Dayen and Stoller parse through the expansive nature of the indoctrinating pressures of neoliberal institutions that wholeheartedly rejected the topic of anti-trust from the realm of valid politics, tackling the story of four Google anti-trust cases across two Democratic administrations (Obama and Biden) as they explore the breaking-of-the-dam moment that was simply bringing these cases to court. After briefly expanding on the major impact of just acknowledging the issue of extreme corporate greed (and the government's role in it) on US politics as a whole, Matt, David, and Sam step back to explore how this vision of business came to be, with the post-economic crisis vacuum of an alternative to failing neoliberal systems pushing those on the American left to construct an image of an economy not grounded in unfettered power, greed, and exploitation. Wrapping up, they look to the future of this new vision for American business, diving deep into the potential of anti-trust under a kleptocrat like Donald Trump and a seemingly yet-undefined establishment cipher like Kamala Harris. And in the Fun Half: Sam unpacks the Biden Administration's most recent move threatening to apply US law to arms transfers to Israel, Ted Cruz lapses his lack of a backbone as he challenges Colin Allred on the debate stage, and Elon Musk reflects on just how funny his penis truly is. Meredith from Upstate reflects on how Sam's vocal pauses gave her pause, and Ally from New Hampshire helps us explore the average American's supposed desire for a militant anti-immigrant crackdown, plus, your calls and IMs!
