It's been more than 60 years since the construction of Interstate 94 destroyed much of the historically Black St. Paul neighborhood known as Rondo. Minneapolis writer Debra J. Stone remembers visiting her grandparents as a child in Rondo every Sunday without fail. She even remembers playing in an enormous dirt pit from I-94 construction growing near their house. It was only when her grandparents' house was demolished that she realized the effect the interstate would have. Debra wrote a novel about a little girl, not unlike herself at the time, grappling with the destruction of the Rondo neighborhood in 1963. The book is called “The House on Rondo,” and it is out Tuesday. She spoke to MPR News host Nina Moini about her experience growing up visiting Rondo and her new book.Debra will read from her new book at Black Garnet Books in St. Paul for a book launch event on Oct. 11.

This episode takes listeners through an entertaining rollercoaster of topics, from the unexpected challenges of grappling to the intriguing world of HVAC systems and the revelation that air conditioners don't actually blow colder air when the thermostat is turned down. We also explore the motivations behind learning martial arts, with the aim of personal defense and fitness, all while sharing amusing anecdotes and light-hearted banter. The focus then shifts to a more personal note, where we share the journey of navigating testosterone levels and fertility concerns, diving into the complexities of testosterone replacement therapy and lifestyle adjustments that have become part of family life. Amidst discussions on personal health, we touch on societal expectations of masculinity and the comedic yet reflective pressures of maintaining a certain physique. Our conversation covers the cultural norms surrounding fatherhood and physical fitness, peppered with personal insights and humorous exchanges about weight and self-image. From the risky world of sports betting to the intense feuds in celebrity culture, we leave no stone unturned. Unveiling our experiences with sports betting strategies, we emphasize the delicate dance between profit and loss. Our conversation veers into celebrity showdowns, like the ongoing rivalry between Nicki Minaj and Cardi B, and the surprising choice of Bad Bunny for the Super Bowl halftime show. We wrap up with a candid discussion on neighborhood dynamics, the struggles of eviction, and the potential heartbreak linked to social media's darker side, offering listeners a mosaic of stories that are both thought-provoking and entertaining.

This Sunday, we continued our Next Ten series as Tyler shared the vision for one of our three initiatives—building a multipurpose outreach center and playground on our Brownsboro Campus to expand our impact in Louisville's growing and diverse neighborhoods. He highlighted three key reasons behind this initiative: our neighborhood's rapid growth, increasing diversity, and the proven impact of outreach through sports. We also heard Jason Shreve's powerful story of how a church gym changed his life, illustrating how sports and community can open doors to faith and belonging. Tyler emphasizes that our greatest calling is to invest in the next generation, citing encouraging trends of spiritual revival among young people. Let's pray, serve, and give together to shape the future of our city and unleash the love of Jesus in powerful ways.

San Francisco has solved its crime and homelessness crisis in the most brilliant way possible – they're just renaming the neighborhoods! The notorious Midmarket area, plagued by drug dealing, overdoses, and people chasing each other with swords for 178 years, is now magically being rebranded as "Lower Hayes Valley." Because nothing says urban renewal like creative geography, right?We dive deep into this absurd marketing makeover where real estate agents are stretching the truth harder than a yoga instructor. With a staggering 62.6% vacancy rate and businesses fleeing faster than tourists from the Tenderloin, city leaders have cracked the code: if you can't fix the problems, just change the name! Whole Foods couldn't survive here, Twitter escaped, and an entire district lost 80% of its value – but hey, slap a new label on it and watch the magic happen.Is this the future of urban planning – just rebranding failure until it sounds trendy? Will AI startups really fall for "Lower Hayes" when they're literally surrounded by the same chaos that drove everyone else away? Let me know what you think about this masterclass in municipal gaslighting.Hit that subscribe button and notification bell – because someone needs to document this circus as usual!

SoHa, NoBat, NoCal, BoHo, GoCaGa. In NYC, the lines that deliniate one neighborhood from another can be blurry, and it gets even more confusing when 'neighborhood re-brandings' occur. So, why do neighborhoods get re-named or subdivided, and how do these changes relate to things like gentrification, politics and the real estate industry? Greg Young, co-host of The Bowery Boys podcast talks about the history and impact of neighborhood re-brandings. Plus, listeners call in to talk about what it means to them to belong to a neighborhood of a certain name.

In this episode, Therese Markow and P.E. Moskowitz discuss P.E.'s new book, Breaking Awake, which explores their lifelong struggle with trauma and mental health. They recount their near-death experience in Charlottesville in 2017 and their subsequent journey of self-discovery. P.E. critiques the reliance on SSRIs and other medications for mental health, arguing these provide temporary relief but do not address the root causes of trauma. They emphasize the importance of community and collective grieving in addressing societal stressors. P.E. also highlights the societal pressures that drive individuals to substance abuse and the need for systemic changes to address mental health issues.    Key Takeaways: Many people's struggles with trauma are deeply personal, shaped by near-death experiences, substance use, and the long process of healing through writing and therapy. Medications such as SSRIs and Adderall can help, but they often fail to address underlying trauma or the broader societal causes of distress. Economic instability, lack of community, and global crises all contribute significantly to widespread anxiety, depression, and substance use. A “quick fix” culture often prioritizes fast solutions over long-term care like therapy, community, and systemic change. Healing and resilience are most powerfully nurtured in supportive communities, where collective action and shared experiences provide hope.   "If you experience [community], it makes it easier to fight, because all of a sudden you have something to fight for, not just something to fight against." —  P.E.

By 2030, adults over 65 will outnumber children in the U.S., yet only one percent of homes meet basic accessibility standards. What does that mean for the future of aging in our communities? In this episode, AARP's Shannon Guzman explains why most neighborhoods weren't built with aging in mind and how we can change that. We explore the AARP Livability Index, a tool that measures how communities support aging well through housing, transportation, health, and more. From policy shifts to everyday improvements, this conversation offers a roadmap for building communities where people of all ages can thrive.

Some hauntings don't just linger in a single home. They bleed into entire neighborhoods, marking every street, every shadow, and every child unlucky enough to live there. This is the true story of “Mommy Ego,” a spirit that terrorized one Austin neighborhood—and left scars that never faded. It began with whispers. A cousin named Mike claimed a woman followed him everywhere, a figure he called Mommy Ego. At first, it sounded like a child's invention—until the house proved otherwise. One afternoon, as the TV asked cheerfully, “Would you like a refreshing glass of water?”, every faucet in the house burst to life at once. Water gushed, cupboards slammed, dishes rattled. Then came the snakes—dozens writhing at the bathroom window, as if trying to force their way in. But the nightmare escalated during a sleepover. Scratching started on the bedroom door. Then a woman's distorted lullaby crept through the dark. Soon, cabinets banged, lights flickered, dishes shattered, and the entire house convulsed. The dog cowered under the bed. Finally, the bedroom door slammed open so violently it punched a hole in the wall. And then… silence. Because this haunting wasn't about a house. It was about possession. About claiming. About ensuring you never forget her. And once you hear her lullaby, you'll understand: Mommy Ego never lets go. #MommyEgo #HauntedHouse #TrueGhostStory #AustinHaunting #RealHaunting #ParanormalEncounters #GhostStories #CreepyTrueStories #Supernatural #ParanormalActivity #ScaryStory #TrueParanormal Love real ghost stories?

Many of us don't know our neighbors anymore — and Nirav Tolia wanted to change that. He walked away from millions in stock options at Yahoo and eventually co-founded Nextdoor, the hyperlocal social network where neighbors share local news and recommendations. Along the way, he learned that for a digital service, Nextdoor demanded a ton of manual work: drawing neighborhood boundaries with Sharpies, sending individual “invite” postcards by snail mail, talking to neighbors about the information they wanted. After 8 years of grind, Nirav stepped away as CEO, only to return 6 years later to spearhead an ambitious rebrand of Nextdoor, which now has 100 million users around the world. In this episode, you'll learn:Why Nirav walked away from millions in stock options to launch his own business How the failure of an early business helped fuel Nextdoor's success How not having an initial vision for your brand can be a superpower. Why apps that focus on “local” are so hard to master Why Nirav believes” local” is a massive untapped opportunity in tech.This episode was produced by Casey Herman with music by Ramtin Arablouei.
