In 2015, Former Gov. Larry Hogan made the controversial decision to cancel the Red Line. The state had already spent $300 million developing the east-west transit project. Calling it a “boondoggle,” Hogan returned $900 million to the federal government and spent the state portion of Red Line funds on roads in rural jurisdictions. Hogan was one of a group of governors to cancel federally funded mass transit projects. But now there is a new governor in office. Gov. Wes Moore called Hogan's decision “almost disqualifiable,” and earlier this month, Moore acted on a campaign promise to revive the Red Line with a high profile announcement and an injection of urgency. So, what will a reimagined Red Line look like?

Gather ‘round, dear listeners, for a devastating tale! A nugget of pure comedy gold has, sadly, been lost forever. You see, two months ago, one of our Patrons suggested that we do something fun for our upcoming April Fools' Day episode. He cited that thing that Michael Che and Colin Jost do when they swap jokes on SNL. He suggested we do something similar – why not write scripts for the other person to read? Kristin loooooved the idea. Brandi did not. Kristin, (brilliant goddess that she is) thought that if *she* handled the execution of this fabulous idea, she could get Brandi on board and we'd all revel in a comedic wonder. So, she quietly wrote up a script for Brandi to read. Then, she formatted it into cue cards.  When it came time to record, Kristin presented Brandi with the script. And Brandi was like… hell no, I'm not reading that. (Was it because the script contained a few tangents about her unwavering crush on Dr. Phil? The world may never know!) So, yeah, umm… that script will never see the light of day. …but we do have *one* story to tell you:  When Lonnie Paye didn't return his girlfriend's phone calls, she became concerned. Had she done something to upset him? Was he just busy? Days passed, and eventually, she called the police. When they arrived at Lonnie's upscale home, they discovered that she'd been right to be concerned. Lonnie's body was on the floor of his garage. He'd been shot multiple times. Lonnie's family was shocked by his death, but gave investigators a few leads. Lonnie had a rocky relationship with the mother of his infant son. Could she have done something? He also had some business relationships that might have gone sour. Perhaps that was to blame. And now for a note about our process. For each episode, Kristin reads a bunch of articles, then spits them back out in her very limited vocabulary. Brandi copies and pastes from the best sources on the web. And sometimes Wikipedia. (No shade, Wikipedia. We love you.) We owe a huge debt of gratitude to the real experts who covered these cases. In this episode, Kristin pulled from: 100% real life In this episode, Brandi pulled from: |“Deidra Griffin” episode Snapped “Deidra Griffin v. State of Maryland” mdcourts.gov “Michigan woman jailed in Bay County on Maryland murder charge; extradition hearing set” by Cole Waterman, mlive.com “Trial begins for Michigan woman accused of killing ex-boyfriend in Randallstown” by Alison Knezevich, The Baltimore Sun “Michigan woman gets 60 years for murder of ex in Baltimore County” by Pamela Wood, The Baltimore Sun YOU'RE STILL READING?

Mobile sports betting has arrived in Maryland. On November 23rd — just in time for the Thanksgiving onslaught of football and the World Cup — Marylanders were allowed to place wagers on their phones. In these early weeks of legalized mobile betting, from TV to Twitter, we have been bombarded with ads trying to entice us to register with one or more of seven “sportsbooks,” as the betting apps are called, which will enable us to bet on all manner of things related to professional and some other sports. Three more state-approved sportsbooks are on the way soon. Today on Midday, a conversation about what sports betting means for Maryland, what the experience of other states has been, and what worries those who treat people with gambling addictions. According to the website Gaming Today, in most markets, more than 70% of sports betting is done online. In some states, such as New York and New Jersey, that percentage rises to 90%. And the amount of money being wagered is astonishing. Last January, the first month that mobile betting was allowed in New York, $1.7 billion dollars was wagered on sporting events. Tom's first guest is Pamela Wood, who covers Maryland politics and has reported on the state's gaming boom for our news partner, the Baltimore Banner.  Pamela Wood joins us on our digital line. Then, Tom is joined on Zoom by Bennett Conlin, a writer who covers sports betting for the SportsHandle and US Bets online sites. He gives us an overview of how mobile betting is working in nearby states, some of which started their mobile betting programs a while ago. Later in the program, Tom speaks with Rob White, a licensed clinical professional counselor and director of the Maryland Center of Excellence on Problem Gambling at the University of Maryland School of Medicine about his concerns with making gambling so easy and accessible.

It's Midday on Politics.  Tom's first guest today is Heather Mizeur. She is a former delegate from Montgomery County in the Maryland General Assembly. For the past several years, she and her wife have lived on a farm near Chestertown. In 2014, she ran for governor, losing to Anthony Brown in the Democratic primary. And this year, she ran for the US Congress in the first district, against the incumbent Republican Rep. Andy Harris. Harris prevailed in that race, as he has on 6 previous occasions. Harris won by a large margin, drawing 56.7% of the vote to Mizeur's 40.8%, according to the MD State Board of Elections' unofficial results as of Friday (11/11).  That margin is about the same as the one Democrat Jesse Colvin lost by in 2018, the last midterm challenge to Harris. But Heather Mizeur mounted a vigorous and broad-based campaign in the heavily Republican district. She raised more money than Rep. Harris, and she actively engaged his supporters. We've invited Mizeur to join us today to reflect on the campaign, and the lessons that she learned, and the lessons that we all can learn. Heather Mizeur joins us on Zoom from Chestertown. Later in the hour, Tom speaks with Pamela Wood, who covers politics and government for WYPR's partner news organization, the Baltimore Banner, about the transition between MD Gov. Larry Hogan's administration and the incoming administration of Governor-elect Wes Moore. Pamela Wood joins us on Zoom.

Producer/Host: Natalie Springuel Coastal Conversations: Conversations with people who live, work, and play on the Maine coast, hosted by the University of Maine Sea Grant Program. This month: The town of Eastport, Maine, has weathered many changes in the last decades, transitioning from empty sardine factories to a vibrant multi-use working waterfront positioned to respond and adapt to an uncertain future. This month we feature two stories from Maine's easternmost town: “Eastport: Reinventing a Waterfront,” a recent episode on the From the Sea Up podcast, and “The Drama of Eastport Tides,” an older (2017) but timeless episode from the Salts and Water podcast. Our first is called “Eastport: Reinventing a Waterfront.” In the far eastern corner of Downeast Maine there's a 3.7 square mile island. Connected to the mainland by a causeway and road that passes through the Pleasant Point Passamaquoddy Reservation, Sipayik, this island is home to the town of Eastport, population 1,300. Once the most prominent sardine canning village along the coast, Eastport's last sardine factory closed in 1983. With that, a century-long industry was gone. In this episode we learn how Eastport has transitioned from a waterfront of empty factories to a vibrant multi-use working waterfront positioned to respond and adapt to a very uncertain future. This story is brought to you by our radio storytelling friend Galen Koch, whose podcast series, From the Sea Up, has been featured on Coastal Conversations before. Galen brings the past and present together to help us make sense of Maine's complicated future. This is the first in a working waterfront series we will keep sharing over the next few months. People and organizations Featured in this story include: Tides Institute, Hugh French, Moose Island Marine, Dean Pike, Eastport Port Authority, and Chris Gardner. This story is part of the podcast series From the Sea Up A note from producer Galen Koch: Thank you for listening to From the Sea up. This episode was written and produced by me, Galen Koch and assistant producer Olivia Jolley for the Island Institute. Nicole Wolf takes the beautiful photographs that accompany this episode.

Special thanks to Camden Hunt, Hugh French, Dean Pike, Chris Bartlett, and Chris Gardner for their help and participation. And thanks to the Salt Institute and Pamela Wood, Hugh French, and Lynn Kippax Jr, who together researched and wrote the 1983 journal publication, “Eastport: For Pride.” Most of the music in this episode is by Cue Shop. From the Sea Up is made possible by the Fund for Maine Islands through a partnership between Island Institute, College of the Atlantic, Maine Sea Grant, and the First Coast.

Learn why incredible natural feature exists and visit one of the largest confluences of whirlpools in the world. Hear from the Salts—people with deep connections to the sea, whose lives are shaped by this natural wonder. This story was pulled out of the Coastal Conversations archives, from 2017, when well-known New England audio storyteller Rob Rosenthal partnered up with an initiative called Experience Maritime Maine to produce the Salts and Water podcast. Eastport is one of six towns covered in this series. People and organizations featured in this story include: Butch Harris of Eastport Windjammers, harbor pilot Bob Peacock, photographer Lisa Tyson Ennis, some Eastport visitors, and of course, the tide. This story is part of the podcast series SALTS & WATER: Stories from the Maine Coast Experience Maritime Maine presents Salts & Water, a 6-part podcast series by award-winning producer Rob Rosenthal. These audio stories paint remarkable character portraits along the coast of Maine, through Eastport, Stonington, Searsport, Rockland, Bath, and Portland. Meet the “women lobstermen” of Stonington, island-hop aboard a Windjammer in Penobscot Bay, and discover the salty fishmonger whose work on Portland's piers is integral to Maine's culture of seafood. Get to know meticulous boat builders, and learn how the dramatic tides shape life in Downeast Maine. Enjoy this podcast series.

Yesterday, Attorney General Merrick Garland addressed for the first time the court-approved search that was conducted at Donald Trump's Mar-a-Lago club on Monday. He spoke for two minutes and did not take any questions from reporters. The Attorney General announced that he had personally approved the decision to seek a search warrant in this matter. The New York Times reports that according to three unnamed sources, Mr. Trump had received a subpoena last spring asking for documents that Trump had improperly removed from the White House. Regarding the search, Garland said this:“... The department does not take such a decision lightly. Where possible, it is standard practice to seek less intrusive means as an alternative to a search and to narrowly scope any search that is undertaken." As to what the DOJ was looking for when they executed the warrant, Mr. Garland said: “Much of our work is by necessity conducted out of the public eye. We do that to protect the constitutional rights of all Americans and to protect the integrity of our investigations. Federal law, longstanding department rules, and our ethical obligations prevent me from providing further details as to the basis of the search at this time.” Garland announced that he had petitioned a federal court in Florida to unseal the search warrant and supporting documents in this case, if Mr. Trump agreed to their release. Late last night, Mr. Trump said he would allow it, and in fact, he encouraged their release. Today on Midday, a Reporter's Notebook about some of the local stories that are top of mind this week. We'll talk with reporters from the Baltimore Banner and MD Matters about what they've been looking into.

With Flacco’s departure, the team has vowed to head in a “new direction,” with Jackson at the helm. Outside of the Ravens’ administration, not everyone is as confident in this rebranding effort or Jackson’s ability to carry an offense — much less get through a game without fumbling.

Early voting in the MD Primary begins tomorrow. Marylanders can vote early, at locations around the state, for a week, until June 21st. Then, there’s a four-day break in voting until Election Day, Tuesday, June 26th. A reminder that if you are not yet registered to vote, you can register and vote on the same day --but only if you vote early. You will not be able to register on Election Day. The last time Maryland held a primary election for important offices like Governor, County Executive, or State’s Attorney was in 2014. In the primaries that year, barely more than 24% of eligible Democrats participated in the election, and even fewer Republicans cast a vote in their primary. The turnout in the General election was also very low. Let’s hope that isn’t the case again this year. Today, in the wake of Democrat Valerie Ervin's decision to withdraw from the Maryland gubernatorial race and endorse primary candidate Rushern Baker for the job, we’ll look at how her move has changed the dynamics of the governor's race and impacted the Democrats' challenge this fall to Governor Larry Hogan, the popular Republican incumbent. And we'll look at some of the other big races across the region that will begin to be decided tomorrow.Joining Tom is a roundtable of three seasoned political reporters:Pamela Wood covers Baltimore County government and politics for the Baltimore Sun.William Zorzi is a reporter for Maryland Matters, an online news site covering the Maryland political scene.

Few events in recent MD history were as shocking or disruptive to the political landscape as the death of Kevin Kamenetz last week, from a heart attack. The 60 year old Baltimore County Executive was one of the leading contenders in the crowded field of hopefuls vying for the chance to run against incumbent Governor Larry Hogan in November. With just a month until early voting starts in the primary, candidates are scrambling to assess the new and uncertain dynamics of the race. Will Valerie Ervin, Kamenetz’s running mate in the primary, choose to run herself, and if so, with whom? Will she run at the top of a newly formed ticket, or will she maintain her position in the Lieutenant Governor slot? Kamenetz’s death also occasions many questions about the future of Baltimore County. Three Democrats and two Republicans are running in their respective primaries to face-off for the County’s top job in the fall. In the meantime, who will the County Council appoint to serve-out the remainder of Kevin Kamenetz’s term? Today on Midday, Tom explores these and other questions with Pamela Wood, who covers Baltimore County government and politics for the Baltimore Sun; and Bryan Sears , government reporter for the Daily Record.

If we are not a little bit uncomfortable every day, we're not growing...All the good stuff is outside our comfort zone.. ' Tammy Hudgins from “A Finishing Touch” and “I was a FB Nobody” talks about her favorite subject...networking. There are other ways to support people. It's not only by using their services or buying from them. Going out there and meeting people is essential if you want to grow your business. It's about forming bonds and friendship. Facebook is great for the initial contact, but you still need to go the extra step. You need to take those extra steps to succeed. Dance Cards event are when the organizer will pair up 2 people who will take it upon themselves to meet up. It's a great way to get out there and meet up. Tammy tries to compliment the business as well. Pamela Wood from Barrie Mompreneurs put them on monthly as well. Kids are back to school and it allows Moms to get out during the day. Routine is good. A step beyond a Dance Cards are the networking events. The Mo-Mondays, Tampon Tuesdays. Be prepared and come with your business literature with you. When you are there, walk over and introduce yourself to someone. Step out of your comfort level. Adding the personal is important as you are doing business with the person and not the business. Support can be in different forms. Sometimes someone is looking or a service or a product you can recommend. You can share someones information so others can look into it. Social Media is not a place to trash a company or a person. It's public. Instead, send a private message. Proper Social Media Etiquette. You are putting your own personal reputation on the line. Everyone has their own opinions. We are all independent contractors in business that we do not own. Your social media presence affects how the company is viewed. If you feel strongly about a situation, you need to go to the small business and give them the opportunity to fix the issue. When you are not 100%, you must be ready to step back and re-connect with your thoughts. There are many reps for the same companies. There are different ways to support them. Tammy will only host a party Jockey person to person with Jyllian Khunen. It's up to you to make your own decisions. What to wear at networking events. Is it business, is it casual? It really depends on the environment. Dress to be comfortable to decrease your stress level. You need to be yourself. Business cards. When and where to hand them out. Are they useful? Post card may be a better idea. With something enticing on it. Give them a reason to keep your card. Epicure Ceaser Rim is the ultimate rim. It has a nice bite to it according to Tammy. http://crystalhollingshead.myepicure.com/Default.aspx?TabId=357&language=en-CA On a side note. For Moms getting out there and starting to get their name out there, its great to start with Facebook. If you are shy, working within the group. When you are comfortable, then go out and meet them in person. Talk to people and share your ideas. You can type in the search bar what you are looking for. IMPORTANT. Please read the rules in the group. FOLLOW those rules. Tammy teaches “I was a facebook nobody” that I plan taking in the near future.  https://www.facebook.com/wasanobody The rule of thumb is to make your business visible once a day. Be sure to add your personality to your business pager. You need to make your presence in 3-5 groups everyday. A minimun 1 hour day on facebook. You will see a difference in business.
