Podcasts about oklahomans

The podcast assumes a more serious tone this time around as we reflect on the thirtieth anniversary of the April 19, 1995, bombing of the Alfred P. Murrah federal building in downtown Oklahoma City, still the largest-scale and most deadly domestic attack in the nation's history. As a result of the attack, 168 people (adults and children) died. Today our guest is current OKC Fire Chief Richard Kelley, who has spent more than three decades in service to the local fire department and was a first responder the day of the bombing. He recounts what he saw on the scene that day, the scare of a rumored second bomb, and speaks on the important lessons the response to that day can teach future generations of first-responders and Oklahomans.  Also on this week's show, the editors share what they remember about that day in 1995. This includes Chris, a working video journalist at the time. You won't want to miss it!

Since Oklahoma's near-total abortion ban went into effect, providers and thousands of people who have left the state to receive care have experienced its impacts.

Ryan Walters pays the piper, politicians don't want Oklahomans to propose ballot initiatives, and we discuss how well the parties are (or are not) connecting with voters.Links mentioned: Walters settled with Ethics Commission for social media violationsBut…a lawmaker, Ellen Pogemiller, has asked the Attorney General to weigh in on Walters' connection to a new “professional association” called “Teacher Freedom Alliance.“ She asked AG Drummond to “clarify the legality” of Walters' conduct concerning the new “Teacher Freedom Alliance.” She also asked Drummond to “investigate the financial ties and contacts (Walters) has with TFA.” A law passed last year creating a new penalty for what it called “impermissible occupation” has been mostly cleared for enforcement by the US DOJ. A federal judge put a stay on the bill under Biden, but now the Trump Administration has dismissed it. Speaking of changes to federal policy, the Oklahoma Insurance Commissioner, Glen Mulready, who most of us forget exists, has issued a warning or a heads up to Oklahomans who have health insurance through the Marketplace (aka Obamacare) that their premiums will likely increase dramatically for 2026 if the federal enhanced Advanced Premium Tax Credits aren't extended by December. David Shor, head of data science at Blue Rose Research, was on The Ezra Klein Show this week, and it's fascinating to hear / watch.

Chances are, you're due for a visit to the Oklahoma State Capitol.

Senate President Pro Tem Lonnie Paxton is “100 percent on board” with Oklahoma Governor Kevin Stitt's proposed half-percent income tax cut – but it's a cautious 100 percent. Paxton told The Frontier that recent Board of Equalization figures, which show Oklahoma's budget to be short of expectations following last year's grocery tax cut, make him wary of the possibility of a return to the state's budget woes of last decade. “I can easily say I'm 100% in favor of an income tax cut,” Paxton told The Frontier.But he also remembers when the state was facing a more than $1 billion budget deficit in 2016. Stitt has pushed for “half and a path,” his term for a half-percent cut and a path toward eventually eliminating personal income taxes. Recent Board of Equalization figures show Oklahoma's revenue projections are less than anticipated, though the state has about $4.6 billion in reserves. Those figures come after the state eliminated its portion of the grocery tax last year, which resulted in a loss of more than $400 million in tax revenue. Stitt, while urging a cut to personal income taxes, has also called for state agencies to have flat budgets for this fiscal year.On this episode of Listen Frontier, I talk to Paxton about what an income tax cut might mean - both good and bad - for Oklahomans. This is Listen Frontier, a podcast exploring the investigative journalism of the Frontier and featuring conversations with those on the frontlines of Oklahoma's most important stories.

A recent shake up in the Oklahoma Board of Education has cause many Oklahomans to ask, "What is going on with Governor Stitt, Ryan Walters, and the education system in Oklahoma?"  Was this a politcal move?  Is this because of the stand Ryan Walter's and the board took on accounting for documenting the legal status of students?  Is Stitt departing from Trump's agenda?  Was Kendra stirring up "political drama?"   Also check out this revealing article that I refer to in the podcast: https://v1sut.substack.com/p/ok-gov-stitt-gives-backroom-ultimatum?r=1x46b7&utm_medium=ios&triedRedirect=true  

It took decades for death row inmate Richard Glossip to convince Oklahomans and, later, the U.S. Supreme Court that he deserved a new trial. Glossip is just one of many inmates who say they faced convictions for crimes they did not commit. Read about enough of these cases, and you'll be asking, “Is innocence enough?”For the wrongfully convicted, tearful reunions and proclamations of justice from the courthouse steps only come after an arduous exoneration process paved with years of litigation.The average person wrongfully convicted loses a decade of their life behind bars, learning the legal system and advocating for their innocence. As the number of exonerations rise annually, there is still no way to track how many people have suffered unjust convictions.In the third episode of our fifth season, we journey through the highs and lows of post-conviction purgatory for people claiming innocence, from one Oklahoma man's hand-written petitions to a New York man who waited nearly two decades for evidence to emerge for a lawyer to take his case.Special guests:Andrea Miller, legal director of the Oklahoma Innocence ProjectMaurice Possley, researcher at the National Registry of ExonerationsJustin Brooks, co-founder of the California Innocence ProjectLaneshia Jordan, Texas attorneyJeffrey Deskovic, exoneree and attorneyMichael Grant, exoneree and assistant director of The Liberation FoundationRetired U.S. Magistrate Judge Kristen MixCarl Wyatt, Oklahoma inmate asserting innocenceThis episode was produced by Kirk McDaniel.

In 1948, at the age of 21, Gene Stipe was elected to the Oklahoma State House of Representatives representing Pittsburgh County, making him the youngest person elected to the state legislature. Stipe won a senate seat in 1956 and served for forty-eight years, making him the longest-serving Oklahoma State Senator.   Gene had a reputation as an excellent trial lawyer and took the lead in some important Oklahoma court cases.On January 1st, 2000, Gene published the book A Gathering of Heroes, featuring stories of many Oklahomans. Some of the heroes he talked about included former U.S. Senator Robert Kerr, Judge Luther Bohanon, and Lloyd Rader.The book is still available on Amazon.  Gene Stipe was 85 when he died on July 21st, 2012.When John Erling was with KRMG radio, he interviewed Gene about the book in 2000, and you can hear the interview now on the podcast and oral history website VoicesOfOklahoma.com.

A group is seeking to boost voter participation in Oklahoma by opening primary elections to all voters, regardless of political party. State-level races are often decided in Republican primaries in Oklahoma, because there are no Independent or Democratic candidates on the ballot, leaving many voters locked out. “Voters are showing up with nothing to vote for and all the meaningful decisions are happening in the primary.” said Jeremy Gruber, an organizer for the group Oklahoma United. “That's why everyone needs a chance to participate.”The change would come through Oklahoma's Initiative Petition process. Gruber said if signature collection goes well, the group hopes to get the measure on the ballot as a State Question in 2026, when Oklahoma will be selecting a new governor.Independents are the fastest growing voter demographic in the state, according to the Oklahoma State Election Board. There are 481,817 Independent voters registered in the state, a 32.4% increase since 2020. Meanwhile, Democrat voter registration declined by 12.2% during the same period. Republican voter registration has increased 13.1% in Oklahoma since 2020. Oklahoma currently allows political parties to hold closed primary elections. In recent years, the Oklahoma Democratic Party has allowed independents to vote in primaries, but the Republican and Libertarian parties have continued to hold closed primaries. Gruber said there are multiple systems of open primaries in use across the country, but the version the group hopes Oklahomans will soon see on a ballot mimics municipal elections most are already familiar with.“Many of those municipalities across the state, which are arguably some of our more functional forms of government, use a unified primary,” former State Sen. AJ Griffin, who supports open primaries, said.“Voter participation is a sign of a healthy democracy,” Griffin said. “This isn't a partisan issue … but it is a way to engage all of the voters in the process and increase civic participation in a state with one of the highest ratings for election integrity in the country.Gruber said every state that has enacted an open primary system has seen voter turnout increase.“It's not hard to understand why,” he said. “You let more voters vote, you get higher voter turnout. It's basic math.” Only 64% of Oklahoma voters participated in this year's 2024 general election. The Republican mayors of both Oklahoma City and Tulsa favor the switch. Oklahoma City Mayor David Holt said in September that he hopes a statewide open primary system would wipe out some of Oklahoma's partisan divide.“People say ‘Gosh it sure seems like you're electing mayors that unify people, that seem competent, that are well-liked across the political spectrum,” Holt said. “It's not magic … every voter gets to see all the candidates, and all the candidates have to face all of the voters.” Tulsa Mayor G.T. Bynum told The Tulsa World earlier this year that he now supports open primaries, after he campaigned against them as a city councilor more than a decade ago.“I think it is important to point out, there is a Republican dominance right now (in Oklahoma), but we have had for a longer period...

Dueling Visions for Oklahoma & the United States at the 2024 RNC & DNCIn this special episode we reflect on the distinct political climates of the Republican and Democratic National Conventions held this year.

While completing her BFA at Baylor University, Rebekah Danae's fourteen year painting practice was stylistically and thematically influenced by formative experiences in Belgium, studying Rene Magritte's surrealist blend of comedy and peril, and in Texas, learning from Sedrick Huckaby's metaphoric expressions offaith, community, and heritage.Sculpturally— through leatherwork and interior design— Danae's work has been influenced by the cowboy boot making community in Beggs, Oklahoma and the design firm of Christopher Murphy in Tulsa, Oklahoma. In practice, Danae draws inspiration from Virgil Abloh, who blurred the lines of art and commerce through the tools of contemporary culture; Rebecca Belmore's ability to elicit intimate moments of reflection while tackling tremendous contemporary issues; the liberatory mysticism of Afrofuturism philosophy; the fiber artists of the wearable art movement in the 70s; and from the community-based relational practice of Rick Lowe.Through her work, Rebekah Danae and A Creative House orchestrate a movement in the middle of the country, made up of a diverse creative choir. Far from a lone ranger, Danae works collaboratively across a curated network of Oklahomans— from the punk underground, homegrown rappers and producers, luxury interior designers, rodeo cowboys, rural bootmakers, to philanthropic, political, and educational leaders. Her approach, while whimsical and surreal, has the intended impact of critical regional culture-shaping from the current white supremacy that is prevalent regionally today and toward a co-created futurist Oklahoma, the liberated West.

Oklahoma CareerTech oversees 29 technology centers across 60 campuses statewide. It takes about 500,000 yearly enrollments and offers courses to students in about 400 school districts and adults.And about 7,500 students are sitting on a waitlist to get in.To tackle the waitlist, the Oklahoma Legislature allocated $26.7 million in new one-time funds for the agency this year. The money was recently disbursed to schools and is now being used across the state for facility upgrades, expanded programming and more.CareerTech Director Brent Haken is grateful for the boost, but he cautions against considering it a windfall that would fully eliminate the waitlist. He plans to return to the legislature next year with the same pitch — that increasing base funding is the only way to fully reach the thousands of Oklahomans hoping for a spot in a CareerTech program.Mentioned in this episode:Social Media tags

Starting with only $1,000 and a computer, he grew Gateway into a nationwide mortgage company operating in 42 states and servicing more than $20 billion in residential mortgages. In 2018, he led Gateway through a merger and established Gateway First Bank, which today is one of Oklahoma's 10 largest banks by assets with over $2 billion in assets, 166 mortgage centers across the U.S., and more than 1,600 employees.Oklahomans spoke in record numbers that they wanted Stitt to use his business acumen to transform the state. In 2018, he received more votes than any gubernatorial candidate in state history in his first bid for elected office of any kind.Governor Stitt has taken a groundbreaking approach to his administration by appointing the most female cabinet secretaries in state history and tapping expert advisors from the private sector, including the first chief operating officer in state history.He is committed to delivering taxpayers more for their money, and his fiscally conservative leadership helped the state build its largest savings account in history, which proved to be prophetic in the face of an oil and gas downturn.Stitt is a fourth-generation Oklahoman and a graduate of Oklahoma State University. He and his wife, Sarah, have been married for 25 years and they have six children. Get full access to Breaking Battlegrounds at breakingbattlegrounds.substack.com/subscribe
