Crises don't just knock out power—they unravel the safeguards that keep predators at bay. We dig into how traffickers exploit natural disasters, pandemics, and even major events by stepping into system failures with promises of food, shelter, and work that morph into coercion and control. From labor trafficking in post-hurricane rebuilds to targeted online recruitment of displaced single mothers, we connect the dots between vulnerability, policy loopholes, and criminal opportunity.Our guest, Benjamin Greer, a trafficking subject-matter expert who trains law enforcement and advises a state threat assessment center, breaks down real-world case studies and the modalities behind them: forced labor disguised as reconstruction, illicit adoption pipelines after the Haiti earthquake, and the way suspended wage protections can trigger a “gold rush” of poorly monitored contracts. We talk frankly about data gaps around big sporting events, why preparedness still matters, and how to turn these high-attention moments into training, service mapping, and smarter plans.We also shift to a public health lens. Pandemic closures revealed new disruption tools—like utility shutoffs and health code enforcement—that pushed illicit businesses out of the shadows. Then we widen the circle: code enforcement, utility workers, delivery drivers, rideshare drivers, shelter intake teams, and building inspectors can all be first identifiers with the right signals and anonymous reporting paths. In court, we unpack why expert witnesses on trauma and coercive control help juries make sense of texts, timelines, and victim behavior that seem contradictory but align with science.Finally, we go after the motive: money. Stronger fines, meaningful restitution, and modern asset forfeiture that targets the instrumentalities of coercion—homes, vehicles, farms, business premises—can make exploitation a losing proposition. Pair that with multidisciplinary task forces, shared intel platforms, and survivor-centered services, and communities can close the space traffickers rely on.

Why do we procrastinate, overspend, or neglect habits we know matter? In this episode, UCLA professor Hal Hershfield reveals how our connection (or lack of connection) to our future selves shapes everything from health and finances to ethics and life satisfaction. Drawing on decades of research, Hal introduces practical tools—including reverse time travel, temptation bundling, and vivid imagination exercises—that help close the gap between intention and action. This conversation is equal parts science, story, and strategy for anyone who wants to live with more agency and hope.Memorable Quotes“It involves thinking about trade-offs between now and later, and thinking about sort of balancing out our happiness and our satisfaction over time between the version of us who exists right now and the version of us who exist in the future.”“People change, and we change much more than we expect to. And the reason I think that that's not something to fear is because it means that we have some control over our lives. It means that we can become different versions of us, we can change aspects of ourselves.”“It may be scary at first to recognize that my life could look different in 10 years than I expect it to be. But the reality that we know from decades of research is that as a human being, we're quite good with grappling with change. We're quite resilient. We have a healthy, what's called ‘psychological immune system,' which basically means we can sort of fend off the changes that we don't want and sort of learn to live with the way that life has become.”“What the research has found is that if we make the process of achieving a goal more fun, more enjoyable, more pleasurable, we're just—and this shouldn't surprise anybody—we're a lot more likely to stick it out.”“If we want to spur action, if we wanna take some agency, we not only need to think about the way that we want things to look differently, but we also need to figure out what's the contrast between now and later? And what are the—and this is really important—what are the overcomeable obstacles?”“There's lots of little things where we can cut corners and, you know, we get some gain in the present, but we might get punished in the future. And what we've found in several papers is that the people who feel connected to their future selves are actually more likely to, to take this sort of more difficult but ethical path.”“That's the irony of procrastination. It hurts while we're procrastinating. It hurts after we procrastinated too…[We can instead think] ‘I don't wanna do it now. There's a good chance I'm not gonna wanna do it in the future, so I might as well just do it now.' Just do it and eliminate all that feeling of negativity along the way.”“We can take anything that feels like it's painful, unpleasant, et cetera, and pair it with something that's a temptation.”Key TakeawaysYou Have Agency. Life will always include uncertainty and unpredictable events, but your responses and daily choices still matter.The Present Is Loud. The Future Is Abstract. Making the future more concrete helps counteract our tendency to overvalue short-term comfort.Three Common Mistakes Sabotage Progress. Getting stuck in the present, under-planning, or projecting today's feelings too far forward can derail growth.Reverse Time Travel Makes Goals Feel Closer. Starting in the future and working backward reveals obstacles—and opportunities—you'd otherwise miss.Temptation Bundling Reduces Friction.

Remodeling your home should make life easier—but for many homeowners, the overwhelm starts long before construction begins. Between endless choices, unclear priorities, Pinterest overload, and fear of costly mistakes, decision fatigue can take over before a single wall comes down. In this episode, I'm joined by Jen Orr, founder of Studio Red Interior Design and host of the podcast Preparing for Your Home Remodel. Jen specializes in helping homeowners slow down, plan intentionally, and design homes that truly support real life—especially in busy, family-heavy households. We talk about why starting with **function—not finishes—**is the key to a smoother, smarter renovation and how having the right systems in place can save time, money, and stress.
Send us a textPower makes itself felt in our bills, our jobs, and our beliefs and this week we trace that line from Arctic ice to everyday life. We unpack why Greenland has become a pressure point, how tariff threats could ripple through British businesses, and what a fraying “special relationship” means for a post‑Brexit UK with less leverage at the table. It's not just geopolitics; it's the cost of silence, the value of sovereignty, and the real climate stakes as ice sheets melt and shipping routes open to new competition.Culture mirrors power too. Drewski's viral church skit hits because it spotlights a truth many have lived: pastors dressed in luxury while congregations struggle to eat. We share raw personal stories of seeking refuge and finding exploitation, and we ask what modesty, stewardship, and care should look like when faith is put into practice. The point isn't to sneer at belief; it's to defend community against grift and to reclaim the simple standard that leadership serves people first.Then we shift to the world of work and name a trap many high earners won't admit: golden handcuffs. When a salary outpaces learning, mobility shrinks and fear grows. We offer a practical path forward extract skills that translate across industries, win visible outcomes tied to money or risk, build a small parallel income stream, and document impact so you hold leverage before burnout hits. For women, especially Black women navigating under promotion and overexposure, that strategy is protection. Pair it with urgent up-skilling in AI and data to avoid a new divide: technological inequality layered on top of pay gaps.If this resonated, tap follow, share with a friend who needs it, and leave a quick review.

Addison Herbert joins to discuss a season-altering week for the Ole Miss Basketball team.
Welcome back! Hope you are all having a great start to your Day, grabbing your marinated bean water or tea and I have to say I'm so thankful you choose to listen to us and I hope that we help kickoff your Day in a positive and focused way! Well today we're stepping into Week Three of your SMART fitness journey. If you've made it this far, take a second and acknowledge that. Most people fall off after Week One. But not You! You're still here. You're still showing up. That matters. Week Three is where your habits start to take shape. It's where your brain begins to recognize, “Oh… we're doing this now.” But it's also where boredom, doubt, or life's distractions can creep in. So today, we're talking about how to upgrade your consistency, keep your momentum alive, and stay connected to your “why.”SEGMENT 1: WHAT MAKES WEEK THREE UNIQUEWeek Three is a turning point. Not because you're suddenly doing harder workouts, but because you're building identity.In Week One, you were trying something new. In Week Two, you were proving you could stick with it. But in Week Three? You're becoming the kind of person who moves their body on purpose.This is where fitness shifts from a task… to a lifestyle. But here's the catch: Week Three is also when the novelty wears off. You might feel:A little boredA little tiredA little tempted to skipOr even a little unsure if you're making progressAll of that is normal. It doesn't mean you're failing whatsoever, it means you're transitioning.This week is about leaning into the routine, not running from it.SEGMENT 2: RECONNECTING WITH YOUR “WHY”I'd love to pause and reconnect with something important... your “why.”Why did you start this journey?What were you hoping to feel?What were you hoping to change?What were you hoping to prove to yourself? Your “why” is your anchor.It's the thing that keeps you going when motivation fades. Take a moment and bring that reason back to the front of your mind. That's what's going to carry you through Week Three.SEGMENT 3: THE WEEK THREE CHALLENGE — “THE CONSISTENCY UPGRADE”Alright, here's your official Week Three Listener Challenge. “4‑Day Consistency Upgrade”. For the next 7 days, your goal is simple: Complete 4 days of intentional movement, any style, any length. Not perfection. Not intensity. Just four days where you choose to move your body on purpose.Movement options include:A 20‑minute walkA 10‑minute strength routineA stretching or mobility sessionA dance breakA yoga flowA beginner cardio videoA bike rideA swimA hikeEven cleaning or yard work if it gets your heart rate up The goal is intentional movement, not performance.You may be wondering Why this works:It strengthens your habit loop, It builds confidence, It keeps your goals flexible, It reduces the “start over Monday” cycle, It helps you feel proud of your consistency. Four days. That's it.You can absolutely do this.SEGMENT 4: ACCOUNTABILITY BOOSTERS FOR WEEK THREE:Let's talk about how to stay accountable this week as always without shame, without pressure.1. Use a simple tracking system A calendar. A notes app. A whiteboard. A sticky note on your fridge. Whatever works for you! Seeing your progress keeps your brain engaged.2. Celebrate the small winsDid you move for 10 minutes? That counts.Did you stretch instead of skipping entirely? That counts too. Small wins stack up.3. Pair your movement with something enjoyableA favorite playlist.A podcast episode.A walk with a friend.A show you only watch while on the treadmill. Pleasure makes habits stick.4. Don't let one missed day turn into a missed weekIf you skip a day, don't spiral.Just pick up where you left off.Consistency is built on returning, not perfection.SEGMENT 5: QUICK GUIDED REFLECTIONTake a breath with me.Think about the version of yourself you're becoming.The one who moves with intention. The one who honors their body. The one who shows up even when it's not exciting. Now ask yourself:What's one small action I can take today to support that version of me?How do I want to feel at the end of this week?What would make me proud seven days from now?Think on these, I'd even suggest writing down and holding onto those answers.They're your compass for Week Three.Week Three is where consistency becomes identity.Where effort becomes routine.Where small steps start to feel natural.You don't need to be perfect.You don't need to be intense.You just need to keep showing up, four days this week, with intention and compassion.Well that's a wrap! If this episode helped you, share it with someone who's on their own fitness journey.As always, thank you for taking time out of your Day to join us! Remember to be kind to yourself and to be kind to each-other, be helpful, be useful and tell your loved ones how much you love them, call that friend who crossed your mind randomly and just say hi! Pay it forward... buy that person behind you in the drive-thru a coffee, just spread love and kindness whenever you can and above all, be the change you want to see in the world!See you next time! And get ready! Week Four is the wrap up episode for this "SMART goals series" to kick off the New Years. February is where we start talking about momentum, confidence, and long‑term sustainability. This is Luis & Ashlee and you've been listening to the Monday Morning Brew!

Episode 372 of RevolutionZ urges that every activist choice we make—what to say, what to do, and who to do it with and for—can be usefully guided by one clear calculation: will this or that option grow the movement's numbers, deepen members' commitment and means, and increase pressure on those in power? We doner how that logic of choice might affect how we write, organize, and work with others among other daily choices we face?To start, the episode considers our choice of words to speak or write. When an episode or an article describes pain that the system around us imposes, and even how the system works, and we do it over and over, how much does that help with growth, commitment, methods, and pressure? Given our need to grow in numbers, and enrich in methods, doesn't the proposed measuring stick say we should speak where the reachable are, keep our language as simple as accuracy allows, and always include and even emphasize vision and strategy? Do we do that? If not, why not? Can new ideas, concrete proposals, and credible plans invite hesitant people off the sidelines more than for us to say or write, yet again, that how bad things are? Strategy-focused words become a tool for converting attention into action. Do pain focussed words that tell people what they already know do likewise?Then we consider choosing tactics by considering the now surfacing debate over how to fight against ICE. The pull toward confrontation is real. We feel it. But if we use our one yardstick, our simple proposed logic to weigh violence against mass nonviolent disruption, What we feel isn't our guide. Instead it is to consider consequences of competing choices for growth, power, and impact. If we do that, what emerges? The episode suggests that nonviolent tactics done at scale impose costs on elites while attracting allies and improving commitment. Our goal isn't to feel fierce or righteous. Our goal becomes to win over and commit more people, more often, for longer.Who to relate to, who to support, gets similar treatment. The simple logic suggests that purity shrinks, coalescing grows. Shying away from what doesn't agree perfectly with oneself fragments. Listening and even learning from what doesn't agree with self, can grow. To support campaigns that win tangible gains and build capacity, even if they don't include every preferred demand, isn't that what we ought to do, but is it what we do do? Do we frame differences as due to character flaws to dismiss or as disputes over expected outcomes to test and explore? Which can create enlarged unity? Do we seek out and onboard unions, students, faith communities, and neighborhood groups who can bring fresh energy and legitimacy though we don't all see all things the same way? Do we join with and support even what we hope will include more of our favored priorities in time?Finally, as a kind of afterword, the episode considers catalysts that can accelerate initial momentum: visible local wins like Mamdani's, regular actions that build efficacy like the efforts in Minneapolis, and also less often sought, bold engagement from cultural figures and labor leaders able to reach large audiences. We invite Taylor Swift, Stephen Curry, and Caitlin Clark as examples. Also school teachers and university faculty. Come fully on board. Why? Because when artists and athletes, labor leaders and educators with access to large audiences speak out clearly, very loudly, and consistently militantly, when they donate time and resources and seriously show up, their doing so can communicate widely and make participation feel hopeful to audiences that are otherwise not yet hearing the call. Pair that with steady organizing and you get a movement that compounds power.Does the simple but powerful norm for choices offered this episode make sense to you? Support the show

Beloved,Are your affirmations not manifesting?
Send us a text(Why one-size-fits-all lessons don't work—and what to do instead)In this episode, I focus on what I consider the heart of acquisition-driven instruction: adjusting and personalizing what we do in class so all students can stay engaged, successful, and confident—without creating multiple lesson plans. If your classes include a wide range of proficiency levels, literacy skills, heritage learners, or students who “should know this already”… this conversation is for you.Building on insights from my conversations with Karen Lichtman and Jason Fritze, and grounded in research by Bill VanPatten and Stephen Krashen, this episode breaks down why acquisition is slow, piecemeal, and unpredictable—and how that reality should shape the way we plan input, reading, and output. I also share practical routines you can use mañana to make your classroom more inclusive, more human, and more effective. Sí, se puede.
Leaves don't just make a mess, they steal your time, stress your body, and starve your margins. We break down a clean, repeatable system to handle heavy debris pools without burning out: what to avoid, what to automate, and where to invest so your route stays profitable even when the wind goes wild.We start with selection strategy—why a mature business doesn't need every account—and how saying no to chronic leaf traps can raise your average hourly return. Then we dig into gear that does real work between visits. The Pool Skim turns a return line into a secondary skimmer with a debris bag, pulling leaves off the surface before they clog the basket. Pair that with a reliable solar surface skimmer like the BETTA to keep the top clear all week. Together they stabilize flow, protect pumps, and reduce chlorine burn, making water balance easier and saving you emergency trips.Next, we get tactical about the source: tree trimming. It's not glamorous and trimming day can be messy, but the payoff is dramatic. We share the exact client framing that works—reduced equipment risk, fewer algae blooms, and more consistent clarity—and when to recommend it. From there, we set firm time caps per stop and outline how to price for debris-heavy service tiers. If a client wants pristine results after a storm, we show you how to quote it confidently and stick the landing without resenting the account.Finally, we dive into tools that transform post-wind cleanups. Strong poles like Skimlite or Primate and large-mouth rakes like Purity Pool's Red Baron or Gator handle bulk removal. • choosing which pools to keep as you grow• pool skim as a secondary skimmer on return lines• solar surface skimmers for daily debris control• tradeoffs in cost, looks, and reliability• client education on tree trimming and equipment risk• time limits, pricing tiers, and boundaries• windstorm prep with strong poles and large leaf rakes• cordless and cart-based vacuum systems compared• ROI, route efficiency, and reducing strain• links to mSend us a textSupport the Pool Guy Podcast Show Sponsors!

Moving into a new home is more than a physical transition — it's a spiritual and practical one too! In this episode, we're talking about what happens after the move. Not preparing a home for sale. Not decluttering months ahead of time. But the moment when everything you owned made the journey, and you're standing in a new space asking: What actually belongs here now? We begin with Scripture as a reminder that our identity is not found in the things we own — or even in the home we've been blessed with — but in Christ. From there, we walk through clear, practical steps to help you organize your new home in a way that reflects your current season of life. This episode will help you slow down, set intention, and organize with clarity rather than overwhelm. Praying over this new chapter for you!

Most of us are wait to accept ourselves after we achieve our goals—after we get that award, land the job, or fix that flaw. But this approach keeps us trapped in an endless cycle of unworthiness. In this episode, we'll dig into why self-acceptance is actually the most powerful fuel for growth and healing. We'll also spend some extra time on the difference between conditional and unconditional self-acceptance, why our minds constantly judge us, and practical ways to break free from self-criticism. If you've ever felt stuck in patterns of negative self-talk or believed you need to be "fixed" before you deserve acceptance, this episode offers a compassionate, scientifically-grounded path forward.

Now that the New Orleans Saints have their quarterback in Tyler Shough, where should team focus in free agency and the 2026 NFL Draft? Host Jim Derry will ask WWL-TV sports director Doug Mouton on Wednesday's Dattitude (Ep. 463) presented by Evangeline Securities. We'll also dive into the progress made by Lane Kiffin and LSU in the portal, the NFL playoffs and the Pelicans.

Boys take risks. They push limits. They scare us. But underneath all that danger is an ancient drive to grow up and belong. In this deeply eye-opening conversation with Dr Arne Rubinstein, we unpack why boys behave this way, the missing “rite of passage” that modern culture has abandoned, and what parents can do today to help boys become grounded, respectful, and emotionally mature young men. This episode delivers clarity, relief, and practical steps every family needs. KEY POINTS Boys are wired for risk — if adults don’t create safe challenges, they’ll create their own. Cultures worldwide share four rite-of-passage elements: storytelling, challenge, visioning, and honouring. Without that process, boys can grow into adult men with boy psychology (self-centred, entitled, emotionally volatile). Dads, mums, and male role models each play a critical role — but the village matters for every boy. Early parenting is crucial: strong relationships, fair boundaries, shared stories, and responsibilities build maturity. Single mums can create support through uncles, mentors, friends, and community. QUOTE OF THE EPISODE “Every boy will go through a rite of passage. The question is whether he creates it himself — or whether we create something appropriate for him.” RESOURCES MENTIONED Dr Arne Rubinstein — Rites of Passage Institute The Making of Men (book) Happy Families Bringing Up Boys Summit The Miss-Connection Summit is also available Sign up here to be the first to news about Justin's new book 'Boys' ACTION STEPS FOR PARENTS Create 1:1 connection time — device-free and regular.

In this week’s episode we talk with Derrick Debross about the changes to the NFA tax that went into effect on January 1, 2026 For listeners of this podcast I want to give you an advance heads up on a new product from MantisX called the Tor-X available the first week of August 2024. The TOR-X is the sublime marriage of the military-grade Steiner laser and the power of the MantisX. The MantisX hardware is now integrated inside a Steiner laser. Pair it via Bluetooth to your smartphone or tablet, and you’re training package just got more complete. Combat-worthy lights and lasers, Mil-grade aluminum, built Steiner strong. Designed to expose, blind and target with maximum impact. Up to any challenge. Just like you. The TOR-X features a Type III hard-anodized machined-aluminum housing and rail mount. It is dustproof, splash-proof to IP54 standards, and available with a green (520 nm) laser. The direct diode type laser operates in extreme cold weather. Other features include left and right fire buttons for ambidextrous use, constant power drive that ensures the laser output remains constant throughout the life of the battery, low battery indication, as well as windage and elevation bore sight adjustment screws. The universal rail mount on the TOR-X will fit all pistols that have a Picatinny or Weaver style rail forward of the trigger guard. This design allows optimum positioning of the laser so that the fire buttons are easily accessible for a wide range of users. I’ve been using the Tor-X for several weeks on my Glock17 and my Glock48 now and when paired with the MantisX app it’s taken my training to a new level. What is your one unknown talent?

Merriam-Webster's Word of the Day for January 11, 2026 is: paradox PAIR-uh-dahks noun Paradox refers to something (such as a situation) that is made up of two opposite things and that seems impossible but is actually true or possible. It can also refer to someone who does two seemingly opposite things or who has qualities that are opposite; to a statement that seems to say two opposite things but that nonetheless may be true; or to the use of such statements in writing or speech. // It is a paradox that computers need time-consuming updates so often, since they are meant to save people time. // As an actor, she's a paradox—she loves being in the spotlight but fiercely guards her privacy. See the entry > Examples: “In some ways, I think the idea of a ‘serious lady' might even be a paradox, if to be serious means to understand the world according to one's own precepts, experiences, and observations, and to behave in a way that reflects this. A lady, on the other hand, follows rules that others have devised. How, then, can a ‘serious lady' be anything other than a very peculiar and odd creature—which the women in this book certainly are?” — Sheila Heti, from the introduction to Two Serious Ladies: A Novel by Jane Bowles, 2025 (orig. 1943) Did you know? The ancient Greeks were well aware that a paradox—the saying “less is more,” for example—can take us outside our usual way of thinking. They combined the prefix para-, “beyond” or “outside of,” with the verb dokein, “to think,” forming paradoxos, an adjective meaning “contrary to expectation.” Latin speakers used that word as the basis for a noun paradoxum, which English speakers borrowed during the 1500s as paradox.

Show Notes Elementals are the walking embodiment of the four classic forces—fire, air, water, and earth—and they're one of the easiest monster families to drop into any campaign while still feeling mythic, dangerous, and thematically sharp. (Spotify) In this remastered episode, the RPGBOT crew digs into how to make elementals more than "a pile of hit points with a damage type"—including encounter roles, terrain design, and how to telegraph threats so your table feels challenged instead of cheap-shotted. What elementals are (in play): not just monsters, but mobile hazards and "terrain with teeth." Element-by-element encounter design: how fire/air/water/earth fights should feel different, even at the same CR/level band. Battlefield engineering: using smoke, wind, currents, collapsing ground, and difficult terrain to make elementals do elemental things. Player-facing tactics: reading resistances/immunities, avoiding trap damage types, and solving the encounter with positioning and control (not just DPR). GM toolbelt: telegraphing danger, escalating phases, and mixing minions/terrain so elementals don't devolve into a slog. Practical GM ideas you can steal immediately Fire: oxygen, visibility, spreading zones, panic movement (force decisions, not just damage). Air: verticality, forced movement, disarms/knockdowns, splitting the party without hard walls. Water: grapples, drowning pressure clocks, currents, "you can't stand where you want" fights. Earth: cover that changes, chokepoints that collapse, tremors, being pinned or isolated. Key Takeaways Elementals work best when the environment participates. If the room is a blank grid, elementals lose most of their identity. Make the "element" a problem to solve, not a damage type to resist. The memorable part is usually the smoke, the current, the sinkhole—not the stat block. Telegraph early, punish late. Give clear warnings (heat shimmer, rising wind, sudden undertow) so players can adapt before consequences spike. Different elements reward different counterplay. Fire wants spacing and line-of-sight management; water punishes isolation; air punishes clustering; earth punishes predictable lanes. Elementals shine in mixed encounters. Pair a "big elemental" with lesser hazards/minions so the fight has motion, decisions, and tempo. Welcome to the RPGBOT Podcast.

Send us a textFeeling “fine” with normal labs can hide the earliest signs of metabolic trouble. We dive into a revealing study of young adults that compares sedentary people to those who simply meet activity guidelines, and what it uncovers inside their muscle cells is hard to ignore: lower mitochondrial respiration, poorer cardiolipin quality, higher lactate production, and a tilt toward glycolysis that predicts insulin resistance and chronic disease years before a diagnosis.We walk through why mitochondria—not BMI or a single glucose reading—are the real engines of health. You'll hear how cardiolipin acts like high‑grade motor oil for the electron transport chain, what happens when its quality drops, and why consistent moderate movement upgrades both the quantity and the integrity of this critical lipid. The active group in the study wasn't elite; they just hit 150 minutes of weekly activity, yet showed superior fat oxidation, better lactate handling, and true metabolic flexibility.We also connect the dots to food. With the dietary guidelines flipping the old pyramid, we talk about prioritizing whole foods, quality protein, whole‑fat dairy, eggs, fish, and minimizing refined grains to support resilient cell membranes and healthier mitochondria. Pair that with practical steps—brisk walking most days, a bit of resistance training, and paying attention to deeper markers like fasting insulin or HOMA‑IR—and you have a blueprint to improve energy, reduce cravings, and lower long‑term risk without chasing extreme routines.If you've been waiting for a sign to start moving and simplify your plate, this is it.

Two of The Express News Group's most enduring newsroom fixtures decided that 2025 would be the year they finally stepped away from journalism. At the end of December, photo editor Dana Shaw and reporter Stephen J. Kotz officially filed their last stories. For more than three decades, Shaw was a constant presence at the region's most important moments — from protests and public meetings to wildfires and parades. And for over 30 years on the East End, Kotz — who also had stints as a news editor — chronicled the villages, towns, people and personalities of the South Fork with relentless curiosity and determination. This week, the editors sit down with Shaw and Kotz for a candid “exit interview,” filled with unforgettable anecdotes, hard-earned wisdom, and reflections on a lifetime spent chasing the story.

The empty nest season often brings more than quiet — it brings questions. Why does organizing suddenly feel heavier? Why do old systems stop working? And why do thoughts like “I should be further along” show up so loudly now? In this episode, Kristina sits down with professional organizer Tracy Hoth of Simply Squared Away to explore how our internal dialogue — what Tracy calls “soundtracks” — directly influences our ability to declutter and stay organized. Rather than offering quick fixes or rigid systems, Tracy shares how long-held identity statements can quietly sabotage progress, and why this season of life is an invitation to adopt new ways of thinking. You'll hear real client examples, practical mindset reframes, and encouragement for anyone who feels stuck, behind, or overwhelmed by what's been left behind after the kids leave home. This conversation also weaves in faith, and grace — reframing organizing as a practice we walk through with God, not a standard we have to live up to. If you're navigating the empty nest and wondering what comes next for your home — and your heart — this episode will meet you right where you are. Praying over your New Year! A gentle reset for the new year — Real-Life Declutter Week.

Send us a textA new year often feels like a clean slate, yet most resolutions fade because they add complexity instead of clarity. In this episode, Chris Comeaux makes the case for a simpler, more enduring tool: choosing One Word as your theme for the year. A single word sharpens focus, clarifies priorities, and guides daily decisions without a bloated checklist. Leadership is about changing trajectories—not reacting to noise—and a clear theme helps leaders stop drifting and lead with intention.The process begins with reflection, not prediction. Look back before you look forward. Review the past year for lessons and patterns, revisit your mission, and clarify your role—not as a job description, but as the part you are meant to play in the story. Deeper questions like Why am I alive? and What am I willing to die for? cut through distraction and reveal what truly matters. From that clarity, a word emerges that helps you say yes faster and no sooner.Once chosen, the word becomes a companion for the year. Document it, return to it, and allow its meaning to deepen as circumstances change. Pair it with rhythms of rest and intentional time, because sustainable leadership requires margin. When your word and your time align, leadership shifts from reaction to design. Choose the word. Live the word. Let it change your trajectory.The Anatomy of Leadership podcast explores the art and science of leadership through candid, insightful conversations with thought leaders, innovators, and change-makers from a variety of industries. Hosted by Chris Comeaux, each episode dives into the mindsets, habits, and strategies that empower leaders to thrive in complex, fast-changing environments. With topics ranging from organizational culture and emotional intelligence to navigating disruption and inspiring teams, the show blends real-world stories with practical takeaways. The goal is simple yet ambitious: to equip leaders at every level with the tools, perspectives, and inspiration they need to lead with vision, empathy, and impact. https://www.teleioscn.org/anatomy-of-leadership

Chip Scoggins, Ryan Burns and Justin Gaard usher in 2026 with a lively episode discussing the news that Koi Perich is hitting the transfer portal after two years at Minnesota. What led to this, where do they Koi will end up, how will the Gophers use the unexpected money now? Burnsie gives a transfer portal update on who the Gophers have committed (and at what positions). The guys then discuss the new position coaches with deep Minnesota ties before talking about the College Football Playoff semifinals and the fact that Indiana is two wins a way from a championship in football.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
Your brain doesn't just benefit from hearing well—it depends on it. We sit down with Madison Levine of Levine Hearing to unpack the ear brain connection, the growing body of research linking untreated hearing loss to increased dementia risk, and the practical ways clinics and families can respond without fear or stigma. This is a story about healthy aging, where hearing care sits alongside sleep, movement, and nutrition as a core part of protecting cognition and staying engaged with the people you love.We start with the data: objective audiometric measures, not self report, show elevated dementia risk with untreated loss. From there, we translate science into everyday decisions. Madison shares a PR first education model that favors community talks, local media, and clear waiting room content over hard selling. Inside the clinic, we walk through best practices testing, family centered counseling, and an opt in cognitive screener (Cognivue) designed to inform—not alarm—patients. Pair that with outcome tools like APHAB and time based follow ups, and you can visualize improvements in noisy settings while tracking cognitive trends that matter to patients and caregivers.Stigma still looms large, but stories change minds. Hearing aids aren't a concession to aging; they're modern tools that restore connection, reduce isolation, and free up cognitive resources for the parts of life that make us human. We also dig into prevention, from normalizing earplugs at concerts to reframing hearing as a vital sign. Finally, we look ahead to a unifying movement: ear brain connection as a shared banner for clinicians, patients, and the wider medical community. With a simple, consistent message, we can move hearing care into the mainstream of brain health.If this resonates, follow the show, share this episode with someone who needs it, and leave a quick review. Your feedback helps more people discover practical ways to protect their hearing and their minds.

On the night of March 9, 1963, officers Karl Hettinger and Ian Campbell made a traffic stop on the corner of Carlos Avenue and Gower Street and Hollywood. Early that day, the officers had been instructed to seek out and bust anyone they suspected of being engaged in gay sexual activity, and that night they were confident they'd found two men that fit the bill. However, after Campbell instructed both men to step out of the car, the driver, Gregory Powell, pulled out a pistol and held it on Campbell, effectively disarming him, while other man, Jimmy Smith, disarmed Hettinger. The two officers were then forced into Powell's car and driven more than one hundred miles away, where they executed Ian Campbell, while Hettinger escaped into a nearby onion field and managed to find help at the home of a farmer. The murder of Ian Campbell in the onion field shocked residents of California, not only because it was so cold-blooded, but also because of how the incident unfolded. By yielding to the demands of their hostage taker and handing over his gun, many people felt that Hettinger was at least partially responsible for Campbell's death. Powell and Smith were quickly captured, tried, and convicted for the murder, but the consequences of that night in the onion field would have a profound and lasting effect on police policy all over the country for years to come.Recommendations in this episodeFollow @themhoffers Follow @annaleegrace15 ( YouTube or Instagram)Follow @ChefRileyMeehan and Purchase his book A Little Bit ExtraReferencesAssociated Press. 1963.
