Step into Episode 195 of On The Delo as Delo sits down with Chris Nelson, founder of Nelson's Meat + Fish, for an intimate conversation about the ocean, sobriety, and what it really takes to build a specialty food market that refuses to cut corners. From growing up on the Connecticut coast and falling in love with the water to navigating decades in hospitality while battling addiction, Chris opens up about the mentors, mistakes, and moments that shaped both his recovery and his business philosophy. If you're in hospitality, love high-quality food, or are building something that requires patience and integrity, this episode delivers real-world wisdom you can use right now.Hear how Chris went from pot scrubber at a Virginia bed-and-breakfast to opening two Arizona locations that source day-boat scallops from Nantucket, Faroe Island salmon, and Family Roots Wagyu from Eloy—all while working with a team that's been with him for years and treating every guest interaction like family. He breaks down why Nelson's isn't a restaurant, how to shop like you're at a farmer's market, the importance of air-chilling seafood at home, and why Americans need to start eating more underrated fish like bluefish, pollock, and mackerel. The conversation also dives into Chris's 13 years of sobriety, meeting his wife Danielle at the one-year mark, and how the discipline of recovery translates directly into the discipline of running a business built on relationships, not transactions.You'll also get the story behind the Nelly Slaw, how Nelson's landed exclusive Pocomo Meadow oysters from Nantucket, and why Chris never wants to own a restaurant again. From mentorship and music (Metallica, Depeche Mode, and punk rock) to the spiritual connection he feels with the ocean, Chris's journey is a testament to how passion, presence, and purpose can turn a love of food into a thriving community hub. Whether you're a chef, home cook, entrepreneur, or someone navigating your own recovery, this episode is packed with honest, relatable insight that goes far beyond fish and meat.Chapter Guide: Timestamps0:00 – 2:08 – Episode 195 Intro, Built Different Community, and Meeting Chris Nelson2:09 – 5:04 – The Power of Relationship, Connection, and Real Service in Business5:05 – 11:49 – Meet the Team: Phoenix and Scottsdale Staff Who Make Nelson's Special11:50 – 16:16 – Nelly Slaw Origin Story, Mentorship from Ann Cashin, and Austin Grill Days16:17 – 20:55 – Chris's Origin Story: Connecticut Coast, Miami, Northern Virginia, and First Taste of Hospitality20:56 – 23:27 – University of Florida, Finding His Tribe, and the Importance of Friendship23:28 – 30:02 – Meeting Danielle: A Chance Dinner in Arizona and 13 Years Together30:03 – 34:44 – Sobriety Journey: Owning It, Feeling Everything, and the Blessing of Recovery34:45 – 39:09 – The Nelson's Customer Experience: Shop Like a Farmer's Market, Not a Grocery Store39:10 – 46:45 – Chasing Seasonality: Nantucket Scallops, Hawaiian Auction, and Day-Boat Quality46:46 – 50:15 – Family Roots Farms Wagyu, Bagelfeld's Bagels, and Working with Local Diamonds50:16 – 53:05 – Food Memories, Claudio's Olive Oil Lesson, and Eating Simple, Good Things53:06 – 55:17 – Fresh Forecast Email, No Pre-Orders, and How to Stay Connected with Nelson's55:18 – 58:50 – Rapid Fire: Salmon vs. Tuna, Metallica, Depeche Mode, East Coast vs. Desert Sunsets58:51 – 1:00:10 – Most Underrated Fish (Bluefish!), Closing Gratitude, and Supporting LocalIf this conversation about the ocean, recovery, and building a business with integrity resonated with you, hit Subscribe for more deep dives on hospitality, food, and real-life resilience.

In this episode of Americana Podcast: The 51st State, host Robert Earl Keen sits down with one of the most quietly influential voices in American songwriting: James McMurtry.For decades, McMurtry has carved out a singular space where songs are more than melodies. His writing is built on gritty character studies, moral landscapes, and moments of hard-won clarity—stories that feel lived in, observed, and unafraid to sit with complexity. From the early days of his debut album Too Long in the Wasteland to the lived-in wisdom of his most recent work, his catalog reads like a map of roads traveled and lives encountered along the way.Born in Fort Worth, Texas, McMurtry spent much of his youth in Northern Virginia before finding his footing as a songwriter in Tucson, Arizona, studying English and Spanish while cutting his teeth in small rooms and local venues. After time spent traveling—including a period living in Alaska—he returned to Texas, working odd jobs, playing bars and open mics, and gradually forging a life as a working songwriter. For much of his adult life, he's been based in Lockhart, just south of Austin, though his music has carried far beyond those borders.In this conversation, Robert and James reflect on the long arc of a songwriting life—from early guitar lessons and teenage gigs to his first record, Too Long in the Wasteland, and through to his latest album, The Black Dog and the Wandering Boy. Along the way, they talk about craft, observation, patience, and what it means to tell the truth in song without flinching.It's an intimate, thoughtful look at an artist whose work doesn't chase trends or spotlight—but endures, quietly and honestly, exactly where it belongs.Listen to the full episode on all streaming platforms or at AmericanaPodcast.com.Like, share, and subscribe to Americana Podcast.

In this episode of The Data Center Frontier Show, DCF Editor in Chief Matt Vincent speaks with Kevin Ooley, CFO of DataBank, about how the operator is structuring capital to support disciplined growth amid accelerating AI and enterprise demand. Ooley explains the rationale behind DataBank's expansion of its development credit facility from $725 million to $1.6 billion, describing it as a strong signal of lender confidence in data centers as long-duration, mission-critical real estate assets. Central to that strategy is DataBank's “Devco facility,” a pooled, revolving financing vehicle designed to support multiple projects at different stages of development; from land and site work through construction, leasing, and commissioning. The conversation explores how DataBank translates capital into concrete expansion across priority U.S. markets, including Northern Virginia, Dallas, and Atlanta, with nearly 20 projects underway through 2025 and 2026. Ooley details how recent deployments, including fully pre-leased capacity, feed a development pipeline supported by both debt and roughly $2 billion in equity raised in late 2024. Vincent and Ooley also dig into how DataBank balances rapid growth with prudent leverage, managing interest-rate volatility through hedging and refinancing stabilized assets into fixed-rate securitizations. In the AI era, Ooley emphasizes DataBank's focus on “NFL cities,” serving enterprise and hyperscale customers that need proximity, reliability, and scale while Databank delivers power, buildings, and uptime, and customers source their own GPUs. The episode closes with a look at Databank's long-term sponsorship by DigitalBridge, its deep banking relationships, and the market signals—pricing, absorption, and customer demand—that will ultimately dictate the pace of growth.

Yes, January 1, 2026, marks the official start of Derringer Discoveries' 6th year as a music adventure podcast! The Three Dylans: Discovering the Talent of Peter Himmelman In the music world, the name Dylan usually points to the legendary Bob Dylan. For others, it might evoke Bob's son Jakob, the successful leader of The Wallflowers, which is essentially Jakob's alter ego. However, there is a third artist in the family circle who deserves your attention. Peter Himmelman, Bob Dylan's son-in-law, is a singer-songwriter and performer whose talent rivals the family icons. With a voice and delivery that are exceptionally easy on the ears, he is the artist you have likely been missing. THE SETTING In this episode, Team Derringer (Laura, Alton, and Paul) will introduce you to The Unknown Dylan. To help with this daunting task, the team drafted long-time listener -- and newly minted "Honorary Derringer" -- Rob Paine, from Northern Virginia. Rob drove to Charlottesville, the corporate headquarters for Derringer Discoveries, to join Laura, Alton, and Paul in person and to save the day when Peter Himmelman was unable to join Team Derringer. While in town, Rob and Team Derringer soaked up some local music history at Miller's on the Downtown Mall -- where the world-famous band leader, Dave Matthews, previously worked as a bartender. The night continued at Coran Capshaw's The Southern Café & Music Hall, where they caught an incredible live set by UK up-and-comers, The Heavy Heavy, with Nashville-based opener Laney Jones and the Spirits. You might be interested to know that Rob is the fan who originally suggested this deep dive into Peter Himmelman's work, and his insights provide the backbone for this episode. (Do you have an idea for an episode? Let us know!) THE HIGHLIGHTS The Family Tree: Rob explains how Peter became Bob Dylan's son-in-law. (Team Derringer featured Bob Dylan in Episode 80.) The discussion further expands to Peter's brother-in-law Jakob Dylan, leader of The Wallflowers. The Scale: Team Derringer requests for Rob to rank the Dylans -- Bob, Jakob, and Peter (Dylan in-law) on a one to 10 scale. Listen in to hear how Peter stacks up against the competition. Interstellar Recommendations: Rob also tackles a bizarre question from Paul in this episode. If a life form from another planet approached him to learn about the Dylans, what would he do? Discover Rob's reaction and the specific songs he would play for an alien audience. Once you hear his recommendations, tell Derringer Discoveries if you would choose the same ones. The Supergroup: The team dives into Bob's time with the Traveling Wilburys and their lasting musical impact. WHY PETER HIMMELMAN? Team Derringer acknowledges that Peter's last name is not Dylan, but his artistic pedigree and connection to the family make him a vital part of the story. By the end of this episode, we believe you will embrace his music with the same enthusiasm as our guest co-host, Rob Paine.

Episode 068: 2022 AIA Whitney M. Young Jr. Honor Award Winners: RIDING THE VORTEXWhat lessons on architecture, practice, and change can we learn from AIA Whitney M. Young Jr. Honor Award Recipients Kathryn Prigmore, Kathy Dixon, Katherine Williams, and Melissa Daniel?Named for civil rights leader Whitney M. Young Jr., the AIA Whitney M. Young Jr. Honor Award distinguishes an architect or architectural organization that embodies social responsibility and actively addresses a relevant issue, such as affordable housing, inclusiveness, or universal access. Architects and design leaders Kathryn Tyler Prigmore, FAIA; Kathy Denise Dixon, FAIA; Katherine Williams, AIA; and Melissa R. Daniel, Assoc.

In the early 1990s, there were just 1,800 licensed African-American architects in the country, and only 30 of them were women. As of the summer of 2021, those numbers have grown to 2,435 and 533, respectively, and VORTEX has been a major catalyst in the 254% growth in African-American women architects.”This episode includes the stories of the VORTEX collaborators, as well as a candid discussion about their careers, what inspires them, and their work to build this program.Guests:Kathryn Prigmore, FAIA, NOMAC, NCARB, LEED AP BD+C, CDT is an architect, educator, and design practice leader with an inimitable understanding of the dynamics that impact the management of firms from the perspective of an architect, academic, and regulator.

Unless you've been completely disconnected from the news cycle, it's impossible to ignore the explosion of conversation around data centers, energy demand, and AI infrastructure. These topics aren't abstract anymore—they're reshaping local communities, capital markets, and the future of technology itself. Living in Northern Virginia, particularly Loudoun County, makes this reality impossible to miss. This region is now the largest data center market in the United States by capacity, with more than 3,000 megawatts of installed power—roughly six times larger than the next biggest market, the Dallas–Fort Worth area. That concentration alone tells a powerful story about where the digital backbone of the modern economy is being built.

CAFE stands for “Corporate Average Fuel Economy.” An easy definition, via the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration, is a regulation: …[on] how far our vehicles must travel on a gallon of fuel. NHTSA sets CAFE standards for passenger cars and for light trucks (collectively, light-duty vehicles), and separately sets fuel consumption standards for medium- and heavy-duty trucks and engines. NHTSA also regulates the fuel-economy window stickers on new vehicles. Ending these regulations is part of complying with Trump’s “Unleashing American Energy” Executive Order and the [Transportation] Secretary's “Fixing the CAFE Program” Memorandum, according to the department’s homepage. On Wednesday, the president rattled off the investments in the United States that the auto companies have made since Trump 47 began in January. In one case, he cracked up the room by joking that they could do better than the billions of dollars they are promising: Trump added that it’s part of getting rid of more of the “Green New Scam,” too. https://twitter.com/townhallcom/status/1996322694099345577?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw%7Ctwcamp%5Etweetembed%7Ctwterm%5E1996322694099345577%7Ctwgr%5E31d2137f89d95733dae2dffe91ce3f002937e448%7Ctwcon%5Es1_c10&ref_url=https%3A%2F%2Fredstate.com%2Fbeccalower%2F2025%2F12%2F03%2Fwatch-trump-signing-car-industry-eo-ending-burdensome-biden-regulations-n2196786 https://twitter.com/townhallcom/status/1996325044260085885?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw%7Ctwcamp%5Etweetembed%7Ctwterm%5E1996325044260085885%7Ctwgr%5E31d2137f89d95733dae2dffe91ce3f002937e448%7Ctwcon%5Es1_c10&ref_url=https%3A%2F%2Fredstate.com%2Fbeccalower%2F2025%2F12%2F03%2Fwatch-trump-signing-car-industry-eo-ending-burdensome-biden-regulations-n2196786 Source: redstate.com https://twitter.com/WallStreetMav/status/1996587083012378947?s=20 https://twitter.com/profstonge/status/1996583802559136057?s=20 https://twitter.com/unusual_whales/status/1996582009460732232?s=20 to a seasonally adjusted 191,000, the lowest level since September 2022, with expectations of 220,000. https://twitter.com/WallStreetMav/status/1996431168883900552?s=20 fourth consecutive month-over-month decline.

The Dingley Tariff Act of 1897, which was the centerpiece of President William McKinley’s domestic economic policy. He believed in protectionism (using high tariffs to protect American industries and workers from foreign competition). Just like President Trump. Between 1897–1901 the United States had just become the wealthiest and highest-output economy on EARTH, surpassing the United Kingdom as the world's #1 manufacturing nation and #1 economy in total GDP By 1900 U.S. industrial production was roughly equal to that of Britain, Germany, and France COMBINED.

Assistant U.S. Attorney Blasts Los Angeles County After It Votes to Ban ICE Agents from Wearing Masks Los Angeles County's far-left Board of Supervisors voted Tuesday to advance an unprecedented ordinance that would ban law enforcement officers, including federal immigration agents, from wearing masks while working in unincorporated areas of the county. The proposal passed 4-0, with only Supervisor Kathryn Barger abstaining. A final vote is scheduled for next week, and the ordinance would take effect in January 2026, according to the LA Times. Legal experts say federal immigration agents would not be required to follow a county mask ban. The county's top lawyer, Dawyn Harrison, has said she suspects the federal government will likely argue that the county law violates the Constitution, which states that federal law takes precedence over conflicting local statutes. https://twitter.com/USAttyEssayli/status/1996040656733814854?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw%7Ctwcamp%5Etweetembed%7Ctwterm%5E1996040656733814854%7Ctwgr%5E71ecedc2cdf5f5bfec40c6e10a4a461e8ffa25fd%7Ctwcon%5Es1_c10&ref_url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.thegatewaypundit.com%2F2025%2F12%2Fassistant-u-s-attorney-blasts-los-angeles-county%2F by the media and local politicians.

The “war on narco-terrorists” that Secretary Hegseth is bragging about is being run on a legal foundation poured years before Trump ever touched the Oval Office desk. Obama normalized the presidential kill list. He campaigned in 2008 promising rule of law, transparency, and restraint. He delivered a tenfold increase in drone strikes; a White House “Terror Tuesday” meeting where officials literally flipped through PowerPoint slides picking who lived or died; and a legal doctrine allowing the president to kill U.S. citizens without trial, notice, or judicial review. That doctrine – once unthinkable – is now standard operating procedure. Obama's Director of National Intelligence openly admitted in 2010 that the administration was targeting Americans based on vague criteria like whether a citizen was “involved” in a group “trying to attack us.” That’s not evidence… that’s vibes. When civil-liberties groups sued to force the government to explain the legal basis, Obama declared the entire matter a state secret. Meaning: the president could now kill you, and no court was allowed to ask why. The judiciary rubber-stamped it. Both parties embraced it. And the public largely applauded it. Then came the Awlaki killings. Obama ordered the drone assassination of: • Anwar al-Awlaki, an American cleric • Samir Khan, an American citizen standing next to him • Awlaki's 16-year-old son, killed two weeks later at a café The White House smeared the kid as a “21-year-old terrorist.” The next week a birth certificate proved he was a Colorado teenager with zero ties to extremism. The administration shrugged. Obama famously told aides: “Turns out I'm really good at killing people.” And Washington – media, political class, and voters – rewarded him. Fast-forward to 2025. Trump isn't inventing anything new in Venezuela. He's using the exact precedents Obama left behind: Unreviewable executive kill authority, expanded definitions of “enemy combatant,” secret memos. No congressional oversight, no geographic limits, zero court supervision. Obama created the kill switch. Trump just slammed it. If you cheered the drone program when your guy was doing it, you already endorsed what’s happening now. If you let the government redefine due process as “whatever we decide in secret,” you already consented to the next president weaponizing that power. And if you normalize extrajudicial force abroad, eventually it comes home. Obama built the architecture. Trump moved in. And Venezuela is learning what happens when a precedent meets a president with fewer brakes EU corruption scandal could take down von der Leyen – Politico A corruption probe into former EU foreign policy chief Federica Mogherini has thrown European Commission President Ursula von der Leyen's position into jeopardy, with opponents preparing to turn the affair into a fresh push to remove her, Politico reported on Wednesday, citing officials in the bloc. Mogherini, who served as the EU's top diplomat from 2014 to 2019 and is now rector of the College of Europe, was detained on Tuesday. She was formally accused by the European Public Prosecutor's Office of procurement fraud, corruption, conflict of interest, and breaches of professional secrecy over an EU-funded diplomatic academy program. In the wake of the scandal, von der Leyen “is facing the starkest challenge to the EU's accountability in a generation,” with her rivals renewing calls for a new no-confidence vote, Politico reported. source:rt.com NATO Members Commit More Than $1 Billion to Purchase U.S. Weapons for Ukraine NATO officials from Canada, Germany, the Netherlands, Norway, and Poland pledged hundreds of millions more in U.S.-made weapons under the Prioritised Ukraine Requirements List (PURL) scheme, Ukrainian media reported. Amid Russian gains on the battlefield, they insist Ukraine must be armed “to keep the fight going.” The alliance offered these commitments while being accused of attempting to sabotage peace talks. Canada, Germany, Norway, the Netherlands, Poland, and the U.K. all announced new contributions, pushing the total put toward U.S.-made weapons bound for Ukraine toward $5 billion this year alone. These newly allocated funds come at a time when many European governments, increasingly unpopular at home, are cutting domestic programs and warning of budget shortfalls. Source: thegatewaypundit.com Leaked Transcript of EU Conference Call with Zelenskyy Highlights Fear of Trump Securing Peace for Ukraine Ukraine President Volodymyr Zelenskyy was in Paris talking to Emmanuel Macron last weekend while Rubio, Witkoff and Kushner were meeting with Ukraine officials in Florida. This telephone call is reported to have taken place the following day, on Monday. French President Emmanuel Macron, German Chancellor Friedrich Merz, NATO Secretary-General Mark Rutte, Finnish President Alexander Stubb, Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy together with European Commission President Ursula von der Leyen, Polish Prime Minister Donald Tusk, Italian Prime Minister Giorgia Meloni, Danish Prime Minister Mette Frederiksen, Norwegian Prime Minister Jonas Gahr Støre and European Council President António Costa held a conference call. A transcript of the call was leaked to Spiegel, a German news outlet. According to the narrative the assembled group of EU leaders were discussing how the Trump administration was going to betray Ukraine in order to get a peace deal with Russia. The gist of the narrative sounds accurate, though some of the EU leaders are denying the specifics of the wording used. The EU is very worried President Trump may formulate a peace agreement then present the final terms to Ukraine without the EU being involved in the construct of the details. The EU is opposed to any peaceful end to the conflict, because the EU and NATO have positioned their collective economies to only benefit if the military spending continues; they are backstopping their spending with the confiscated Russian assets.

Omar's 2018 victory party was held at Safari Restaurant, co-owned by Salim Ahmed Said, now found guilty of pocketing more than $12 million in fraudulent reimbursements after reportedly serving “phantom” meals. A member of Omar's campaign staff has also been convicted in the same broader scheme. Critics note Omar publicly praised the program that later enabled the fraud, and that she maintained ties with several of the participants. Prosecutors say Minnesota's COVID-era meal programs operated with almost no verification, allowing widespread abuse through Feeding Our Future and affiliated entities.

It is on purpose. It is a feature, not a bug,” Assistant Attorney General for Civil Rights Harmeet J. Dhillon told the Just the News, No Noise television show on Wednesday night. “And the goal is to cram as many people on there and make voters who are not particularly engaged, make it easy for someone else to help them fill out their ballot and return it for them when they didn’t care enough to do it themselves,” she added. “What we can do at the federal government level is ensure that our federal election laws are observed, and that includes each state’s requirement to keep clean voter rolls,” she added. “That is a fundamental basic.” Dhillon spoke one day after her division filed lawsuits against six Democrat-run states — Maryland, Delaware, Rhode Island, New Mexico, Washington state and Vermont — seeking to compel them to turn over to the DOJ their voter rolls to be inspected for abnormalities, outdated names or noncompliant names. She also struck a deal last week with North Carolina to force it to review and fix over 100,000 voters’ names on rolls in that battleground state that were added without complying with state law. Dhillon said her office is now on track to force through litigation, settlement or voluntary efforts at least 26 states to clean up voter rolls. “We’re now in litigation with 14 states. So the six yesterday included Maryland, Delaware, Rhode Island, New Mexico, Washington State and Vermont. That adds to eight we already had going,” she said.
