Send us a textThe man now known as Chicken Coop Willaye moved from his home state of North Carolina to Atlanta, Georgia, after graduating from Appalachian State University in Boone. During the decade he lived in Atlanta, he was known as Washboard Willaye.In Atlanta, Willaye met local legends who gathered for performances in Northside Tavern, eventually sitting in with Danny “Mudcat” Dudeck on his Wednesday night performances there. Playing piedmont and country blues, Willaye earned his nickname from the instrument he learned to play there – the washboard.On Tuesday nights there, Donnie “Mac” McCormick performed his primary instrument at Northside. He discovered this primary instrument in the early 70s, during a jam session at “The Farm,” a property in Juliette, Georgia, owned by the Allman Brothers.During the session, Mac ran out of objects to drum on, but somebody from the group handed him another object: a chicken coop. The rest, as they say, is history, and Mac continued playing the chicken coop until his death in 2009.Performing with Mac, Willaye found himself inspired, and in a similar turn of events, he found a chicken coop in the barn of an antique store in North Georgia. That day, Chicken Coop Willaye was born. Thank you for listening to The Mountain-Ear Podcast, featuring news and culture from peak to peak!

The Federal Theatre joins Denver's list of vintage movie palaces turned music venue after the folks behind The Oriental Theater recently announced they were taking over the space. Could this be a new catalyst for more business along this Northside strip? Then, after President Trump complained that his portrait at the state capitol was “truly the worst”, it was removed — but legislators and History Colorado are trying to decide if the paintings should be replaced by something different altogether. Host Bree Davies is joined by Westword editor in chief Patty Calhoun to dig into these stories, plus producer Olivia Jewell Love pops by to share listener comments on everything from flock cameras to witchcraft. Bree talked about the Federal Theatre's fundraiser to get the old venue running again and our episode with conservative talk radio host Jeff Hunt. After our show with Denver Police Chief Ron Thomas, listener Fiona had questions about other police departments having access to Denver's flock camera data. Patty mentioned Governor Polis' “Colorado 150 Bridge”.  For even more news from around the city, subscribe to our morning newsletter Hey Denver at denver.citycast.fm.

Top Stories for June 24th Publish Date: June 24th From The BG AD Group Studio, Welcome to the Gwinnett Daily Post Podcast. Today is Tuesday, June 24th and Happy Birthday to Frances McDormand I’m Peyton Spurlock and here are your top stories presented by KIA Mall of Georgia Georgia Republicans, Democrats disagree over bombing Iran Gwinnett County students earn Georgia Foundation for Agriculture scholarships Katie Rutherford — a Parkview grad and childhood cancer survivor — now works at the very hospital that saved her life All of this and more is coming up on the Gwinnett Daily Post podcast, and if you are looking for community news, we encourage you to listen and subscribe! Break 1: Kia MOG STORY 1: Georgia Republicans, Democrats disagree over bombing Iran Georgia politicians are divided along party lines over President Trump’s decision to bomb Iranian nuclear sites. Republicans, including Gov. Brian Kemp and state Senate Majority Leader Jason Anavitarte, praised the operation as a strong stance against Iran’s nuclear ambitions. Democrats, like Senators Jon Ossoff and Raphael Warnock, criticized the lack of congressional authorization and warned of potential long-term conflict. U.S. Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene broke from GOP ranks, opposing the strikes and cautioning against foreign wars. The debate highlights contrasting views on military action and diplomacy among Georgia’s leaders. STORY 2: Gwinnett County students earn Georgia Foundation for Agriculture scholarships Khalia Clemons of Norcross and Sydney Wade of Dacula, students at Gwinnett Technical College, have been awarded $1,500 scholarships from the Georgia Foundation for Agriculture. The scholarships support students pursuing agriculture-related training, with Clemons focusing on environmental horticulture and Wade actively involved in community gardening and the Horticulture Club. The Georgia Foundation for Agriculture, alongside the Georgia Farm Bureau, aims to cultivate future agricultural leaders. Gwinnett County, Georgia’s top horticulture-producing county, highlights the importance of these scholarships in fostering the next generation of agricultural professionals. STORY 3: Katie Rutherford — a Parkview grad and childhood cancer survivor — now works at the very hospital that saved her life Katie Rutherford, a 23-year-old cancer survivor, now works as a program coordinator at Children’s Healthcare of Atlanta, the same place that saved her life as a teen battling rhabdomyosarcoma. Diagnosed at 15, she endured 48 rounds of chemotherapy and 27 rounds of radiation, completing treatment in 2018. After graduating from Valdosta State, she joined Children’s, bringing a unique perspective to her role by connecting with patients and donors through her own experience. Now cancer-free for eight years, Katie remains vigilant about her health and is determined to live life to the fullest, inspiring others with her journey.

We’ll be right back Break 2: Ingles Markets STORY 4: Northside Hospital Gwinnett performs first endoscopic spine surgery Northside Hospital surgeons have performed their first ultra-minimally invasive endoscopic spine surgery, offering faster recovery and less pain for back pain sufferers. Using Arthrex technology, Dr. Vamsi Kancherla completed the procedure on May 22 at Northside Hospital Gwinnett. The technique uses a pencil-sized endoscope and tiny incision, reducing muscle disruption and eliminating the need for large incisions or bone removal. Often done in an outpatient setting, patients can potentially go home the same day. This innovation reflects Northside’s commitment to providing advanced, minimally invasive care for improved patient outcomes. STORY 5: Norcross native defends America from under the sea Chief Petty Officer Matthew Rorabaugh, a Norcross native, serves as an electronics technician aboard the USS West Virginia at Naval Submarine Base Kings Bay. With 20 years in the Navy, Rorabaugh upholds the submarine force’s mission of strategic deterrence and national security. Submarines like the USS West Virginia play a critical role in defense, from launching ballistic missiles to supporting special operations. Rorabaugh credits his community’s values of hard work and patriotism for shaping his career and honors his wife, Catherine, for her support during his service. The Navy celebrates its 250th anniversary this year, emphasizing its vital role in global security. STORY 6: Seven charged with running online fentanyl, meth marketplace Seven Georgians have been indicted for allegedly using a dark web vendor, WallStreetBets, to ship fentanyl and methamphetamine nationwide. The defendants, including Myron Stodghill and Jabari Cooper, face conspiracy charges with potential life sentences. Authorities seized drugs, firearms, and vehicles during May 19 searches in metro Atlanta. The operation reportedly involved 2,777 sales, using prepaid shipping labels paid with cryptocurrency and fake return addresses. The FBI, U.S. Postal Inspection Service, and other agencies are investigating the case, highlighting the growing use of the dark web in drug trafficking. STORY 7: Gwinnett Sheriff's Office claims ICE-detained journalist interfered with TRACE Unit operations The Gwinnett County Sheriff's Office has charged Hispanic journalist Mario Guevara with traffic misdemeanors, accusing him of compromising its anti-trafficking operations. Guevara, a Salvadoran journalist with a U.S. work permit, was arrested during a protest and is now in ICE custody. His attorney questions the timing of the charges, which surfaced after his arrest. State Rep. Marvin Lim criticized the Sheriff's Office for a lack of transparency on immigration policies, highlighting concerns over its cooperation with ICE. Guevara, known for covering immigration raids, faces ongoing legal and immigration challenges. Sign-off – Thanks again for hanging out with us on today’s Gwinnett Daily Post Podcast.

“Forest bathing” is the exceptionally simple Japanese practice of taking a walk — or a seat — in the woods. Why? For your health, of course! In our last episode, we learned about Chicago's urban forest — including the $416 million in benefits all those trees provide, in terms of energy cost savings, stormwater mitigation and air purification. Today, we're taking advantage of that urban forest by taking a bath in it. (And no, there is no soap or water required.) Our guide is the co-founder of The Spiritual Guidance Training Institute, Jeanette Banashak, who's also a faculty member at Erikson Institute downtown. Banashak has been leading forest bathing and nature companionship experiences for four years. She took Curious City to the Jarvis Bird Sanctuary on the North Side for what she called “a playful, slow, mindful, joyful walk [and] sit in the natural world.” The goal of forest bathing is to disconnect from urban life, de-stress and connect with nature. Banashak said the practice is rife with health benefits, from lowering blood pressure to improving immune function and calming your parasympathetic nervous system. And although the practice does not require a guide, Banashak has a dream of training facilitators of these experiences to offer weekly sessions, year-round, on every side of the city. Lucky for us, Chicago has plenty of parks, bird sanctuaries, and natural spaces in which you can forest bathe. So join us. All you need to do is make the time and press play.
