I'm psyched to have @michiganrattlers on the show this week!! Friends from childhood, Graham Young, Adam Reed, Christian Wilder and Tony Audia all grew up together in Petosky, Michigan playing music, and dreaming of taking it out on the road. Now over a decade of touring later, they're on their third studio album, Waving From A Sea, and are known for deep lyricism, a rich sonic quality, and a killer live show. This latest effort is produced by @dominicjohndavis (Jack White, Greensky Bluegrass, Willie Nelson) and represents a turning point in Michigan Rattlers young career.I was happy to have the entire band on the show and we talk about their early development and long days spent on the road. We also discuss what it means to be “of a place and time” and still be together doing what they love. We have a great time chatting — these guys know how to bring the high energy both on and off stage — and I'm super excited to share this action-packed interview!!

You just ain't gonna believe it but now that it's Monday again, you're gonna have to listen to yet another episode of the Bubbles Mushrooms Podcast. This week we have Brian back in the hot seat for his FIFTH visit to the program, which means he finally gets his official BM Gold Jacket (or just one of the spinny-tops that me made himself). Katie is a little cranky this week and has a few different things to talk about regarding why, Edward tries to find a new name for the people who visit our show, we go ahead and check in with our viewer emails, Brian finally discovers when we were talking about every time we have talked about ALF and Luke talks about his arsenal, where he keeps it, his denomination and asks who everyone is voting for! Edward has a brand new plan on how to punish violent criminals involving arming the nation's youth with Pokémon cards, Brian shows us some brand new fidget toys he whipped up, Katie went to Petosky - to find rocks, see the SkyBridge with Maximillian buy some more shitty candy from the candy store. Turns out that it was trick candy again - sort of… This weeks special activity is brought to you by Edward and Brian regarding things that have been lost to history. This will probably end up being the quintessential episode of the program, but also probably not. We talk about VH1's Welcome to the 1980's, Freddie & Sarah's Gravy Marriage, how Katie misses the milkman's visits to their home, border control, the Imation SuperDisk LS-120 drive, otter pops, rotary iPhone dials, hilarious jokes, rule 34 for old white men and Saturday morning cartoons. We end up making a phone call to the Emergency Callin' Oates Hotline and check to see if the phone number to get the time still works. Turns out that this is the dumbest show in America! Follow us on Instagram @bubbmush and email the show at bubbmush@gmail.com - thanks for checking out the show and don't forget to tell a friend how much you like it.

MLB – Major League Baseball Yesterday Boston Red Sox 6, Detroit Tigers 3 San Francisco Giants 16, Chicago White Sox 6 Cubs were off Red Sox 6, Tigers 3 – Adam Duvall’s 3-run HR lifts Red Sox to 6-3 win over Tigers Adam Duvall hit a tiebreaking, three-run homer in the sixth inning and the Boston Red Sox went on to beat the Detroit Tigers 6-3. Miguel Cabrera hit a two-out RBI single in the third inning of his final home opener to put Detroit up 3-1. The Red Sox scored a run in the third and fourth before surging into the lead with a four-run sixth. Boston was swept at home earlier in the week by Pittsburgh. Chris Sale gave up three runs and four hits and three walks while striking out seven in five innings. Detroit catcher Jake Rogers fired up fans — bundled up on a chilly afternoon — by turning on an inside pitch and sending it 414 feet to left to put Detroit up 2-0 in the second. The Tigers, though, missed many chances to score more runs by leaving eight runners on base. Giants 16, White Sox 6 – Homer-happy Giants slug 5 more, pound White Sox 16-6 J.D. Davis hit a grand slam in the ninth off mop-up reliever Hanser Alberto for his third hit, Michael Conforto cracked a three-run homer among three hits and the San Francisco Giants powered past the Chicago White Sox 16-6 on Thursday. Mike Yastrzemski and Wilmer Flores each launched a two-run shot in San Francisco's five-homer, 20-hit attack. Rookie catcher Blake Sabol tagged the first home run of his career and added two singles to give him four total hits in his first six games. Tim Anderson had two RBIs for Chicago.

Henri Jokiharju, Zemgus Girgensons and Jordan Greenway also scored for the Sabres, and Devon Levi made 26 saves. Alex Tuch and Jack Quinn scored in the shootout. Thompson is the first Sabres player to reach 45 or more goals in a single season since Alexander Mogilny (76) and Pat LaFontaine (53) did so in 1992-93. Austin Czarnik, Dylan Larkin, Alex Chiasson, Simon Edvinsson, Jonatan Berggren and David Perron scored in regulation for the Red Wings. Lucas Raymond scored the only shootout goal for Detroit. Canucks 3, Blackhawks 0 – Thatcher Demko stops 33 shots, Canucks beat Blackhawks 3-0 Thatcher Demko stopped 33 shots for his first shutout of the season and third overall in the Vancouver Canucks' 3-0 victory over the Chicago Blackhawks on Thursday night. Andrei Kuzmenko, Vitali Kravtsov and J.T. Miller — into the empty net — scored and defenseman Akito Hirose had two assists to help the Canucks end a four-game losing streak. Alex Stalock stopped 26 shots for the Blackhawks. They were coming off a 4-3 victory at Calgary on Tuesday, but have lost nine of 10.

Quinnipiac, which set a program record for wins, advances to its third national title game in program history against Minnesota on Saturday. The Bobcats seek their first title after losing in 2013 and '16. Both of Quillan's goals came in the first period. He opened the scoring with 14:41 left on a bank shot from behind the net that went off goaltender Erik Portillo. Quillan added another on a breakaway at 8:39 for his 18th goal of the season. Michigan was seeking its 10th NCAA championship. Golf – The Masters – Koepka living large at Masters, leads with Rahm and Hovland Brooks Koepka is in a three-way share of the lead at the Masters with Jon Rahm and Viktor Hovland. Koepka is trying to regain his reputation as a major player. Right now he gets attention as a surprise defector to Saudi-based LIV Golf. All he cares about his having healthy legs. He opened with a 65. Rahm was even more spectacular in his round of 65. That’s because he four-putted for double bogey on the first hole. He followed with seven birdies and an eagle. Hovland played bogey-free. Tiger Woods limped his way to a 74 and was nine back. Golf – The Masters – Tiger Woods’ painful Masters walk results in opening 74 Tiger Woods had three birdies and five bogeys during an opening round of 74 at the Masters on Thursday, leaving him in contention to play the weekend but hardly to win the tournament. He had two tough lip-outs on the front nine, a couple of poor pitch shots that led to bogeys, and some bad luck at the 18th led to his final bogey. It was the worst opening round for Woods at the Masters since 2005, when he followed another 74 with 65-66-71 to capture the fourth of his five green jackets. But he’s hardly the same player these days. He is now a combined 16 over for his last four rounds at Augusta National. NCAAWBKB – Champion LSU women accepting Biden invitation to White House LSU's national champion women's basketball team will accept an invitation from President Joe Biden to visit the White House. University spokesman Michael Bonnette confirmed LSU's intentions on the matter on Thursday, a day after Tigers star forward Angel Reese suggested during a podcast interview that her team should celebrate their title with former President Barack Obama and former first lady Michelle Obama rather than President Joe Biden and first lady Jill Biden. Reese made the suggestion after saying she was not inclined to accept an apology from Jill Biden for suggesting that both LSU and runner-up Iowa be invited to the White House. President Biden did not follow through on that idea, inviting only LSU and men's national champion Connecticut. US would bar full ban on trans athletes but allow exceptions A new rule proposed by the Biden administration would prevent schools and colleges from enacting outright bans on transgender athletes, but it would allow certain exceptions to promote fairness or reduce injuries. The proposal sends a political counterpunch toward a wave of Republican-led states that have sought to ban trans athletes from competing in school sports. If finalized, it would become enshrined as a provision of Title IX, the landmark gender equity legislation enacted in 1972. It must undergo a lengthy approval process, however, and it's almost certain to face challenges from opponents.

MLB – Major League Baseball Yesterday Boston Red Sox 6, Detroit Tigers 3 San Francisco Giants 16, Chicago White Sox 6 Cubs were off Red Sox 6, Tigers 3 – Adam Duvall’s 3-run HR lifts Red Sox to 6-3 win over Tigers Adam Duvall hit a tiebreaking, three-run homer in the sixth inning and the Boston Red Sox went on to beat the Detroit Tigers 6-3. Miguel Cabrera hit a two-out RBI single in the third inning of his final home opener to put Detroit up 3-1. The Red Sox scored a run in the third and fourth before surging into the lead with a four-run sixth. Boston was swept at home earlier in the week by Pittsburgh. Chris Sale gave up three runs and four hits and three walks while striking out seven in five innings. Detroit catcher Jake Rogers fired up fans — bundled up on a chilly afternoon — by turning on an inside pitch and sending it 414 feet to left to put Detroit up 2-0 in the second. The Tigers, though, missed many chances to score more runs by leaving eight runners on base. Giants 16, White Sox 6 – Homer-happy Giants slug 5 more, pound White Sox 16-6 J.D. Davis hit a grand slam in the ninth off mop-up reliever Hanser Alberto for his third hit, Michael Conforto cracked a three-run homer among three hits and the San Francisco Giants powered past the Chicago White Sox 16-6 on Thursday. Mike Yastrzemski and Wilmer Flores each launched a two-run shot in San Francisco's five-homer, 20-hit attack. Rookie catcher Blake Sabol tagged the first home run of his career and added two singles to give him four total hits in his first six games. Tim Anderson had two RBIs for Chicago.

Henri Jokiharju, Zemgus Girgensons and Jordan Greenway also scored for the Sabres, and Devon Levi made 26 saves. Alex Tuch and Jack Quinn scored in the shootout. Thompson is the first Sabres player to reach 45 or more goals in a single season since Alexander Mogilny (76) and Pat LaFontaine (53) did so in 1992-93. Austin Czarnik, Dylan Larkin, Alex Chiasson, Simon Edvinsson, Jonatan Berggren and David Perron scored in regulation for the Red Wings. Lucas Raymond scored the only shootout goal for Detroit. Canucks 3, Blackhawks 0 – Thatcher Demko stops 33 shots, Canucks beat Blackhawks 3-0 Thatcher Demko stopped 33 shots for his first shutout of the season and third overall in the Vancouver Canucks' 3-0 victory over the Chicago Blackhawks on Thursday night. Andrei Kuzmenko, Vitali Kravtsov and J.T. Miller — into the empty net — scored and defenseman Akito Hirose had two assists to help the Canucks end a four-game losing streak. Alex Stalock stopped 26 shots for the Blackhawks. They were coming off a 4-3 victory at Calgary on Tuesday, but have lost nine of 10.

Quinnipiac, which set a program record for wins, advances to its third national title game in program history against Minnesota on Saturday. The Bobcats seek their first title after losing in 2013 and '16. Both of Quillan's goals came in the first period. He opened the scoring with 14:41 left on a bank shot from behind the net that went off goaltender Erik Portillo. Quillan added another on a breakaway at 8:39 for his 18th goal of the season. Michigan was seeking its 10th NCAA championship. Golf – The Masters – Koepka living large at Masters, leads with Rahm and Hovland Brooks Koepka is in a three-way share of the lead at the Masters with Jon Rahm and Viktor Hovland. Koepka is trying to regain his reputation as a major player. Right now he gets attention as a surprise defector to Saudi-based LIV Golf. All he cares about his having healthy legs. He opened with a 65. Rahm was even more spectacular in his round of 65. That’s because he four-putted for double bogey on the first hole. He followed with seven birdies and an eagle. Hovland played bogey-free. Tiger Woods limped his way to a 74 and was nine back. Golf – The Masters – Tiger Woods’ painful Masters walk results in opening 74 Tiger Woods had three birdies and five bogeys during an opening round of 74 at the Masters on Thursday, leaving him in contention to play the weekend but hardly to win the tournament. He had two tough lip-outs on the front nine, a couple of poor pitch shots that led to bogeys, and some bad luck at the 18th led to his final bogey. It was the worst opening round for Woods at the Masters since 2005, when he followed another 74 with 65-66-71 to capture the fourth of his five green jackets. But he’s hardly the same player these days. He is now a combined 16 over for his last four rounds at Augusta National. NCAAWBKB – Champion LSU women accepting Biden invitation to White House LSU's national champion women's basketball team will accept an invitation from President Joe Biden to visit the White House. University spokesman Michael Bonnette confirmed LSU's intentions on the matter on Thursday, a day after Tigers star forward Angel Reese suggested during a podcast interview that her team should celebrate their title with former President Barack Obama and former first lady Michelle Obama rather than President Joe Biden and first lady Jill Biden. Reese made the suggestion after saying she was not inclined to accept an apology from Jill Biden for suggesting that both LSU and runner-up Iowa be invited to the White House. President Biden did not follow through on that idea, inviting only LSU and men's national champion Connecticut. US would bar full ban on trans athletes but allow exceptions A new rule proposed by the Biden administration would prevent schools and colleges from enacting outright bans on transgender athletes, but it would allow certain exceptions to promote fairness or reduce injuries. The proposal sends a political counterpunch toward a wave of Republican-led states that have sought to ban trans athletes from competing in school sports. If finalized, it would become enshrined as a provision of Title IX, the landmark gender equity legislation enacted in 1972. It must undergo a lengthy approval process, however, and it's almost certain to face challenges from opponents.

US would bar full ban on trans athletes but allow exceptions A new rule proposed by the Biden administration would prevent schools and colleges from enacting outright bans on transgender athletes, but it would allow certain exceptions to promote fairness or reduce injuries. The proposal sends a political counterpunch toward a wave of Republican-led states that have sought to ban trans athletes from competing in school sports. If finalized, it would become enshrined as a provision of Title IX, the landmark gender equity legislation enacted in 1972. It must undergo a lengthy approval process, however, and it's almost certain to face challenges from opponents.

We spoke with experts on bringing fiber internet to rural Michigan. Bringing fiber internet to rural Michigan can reduce major barriers to educational, healthcare, and economic opportunities and benefit whole communities and families. We also speak to Dr. Edward Smith on why advocating for remote areas as a physician is so important when decisions are being made based off of what can be done in urban areas. Transcript: This Rural Mission is a podcast brought to you by Michigan State University College of Human Medicine. The podcast is produced with funds from the Herbert H and Grace A. Dow Foundation and the Michigan State University College of Human Medicine Family Medicine Department. Welcome to Season Two. I'm your host Julia Terhune and I hope you enjoy this episode. So I was sitting with my spouse talking about jobs, and life, and he got off on a tangent, considering our connection to the internet and the current state of our rural communities in light of our current internet connection. And it struck a chord with me, and it became the impetus for this whole episode. So, I had to start recording him. The reoccurring theme that he brought up and the one that will be reinforced throughout this podcast is that access to the internet in rural America, including rural Michigan, is bad, plain and simple. It's bad. Many rural residents are currently living with limited or no access to the internet and being left behind. Sometimes when I bring up this point, I get push back, and I have people who argue that technology is a choice or a privilege. But where did you get your last bit of news from? How did you access this podcast? How did you apply for your last job? This last point was significant to my spouse because of what he does. He helps connect and mentor low income and transitioning persons to careers and jobs. And this limited access to the internet has been keeping him in business. What happens to them? They get all this information about applying for jobs, and access to jobs and they have these fantastic resumes, and they're motivated, and they have accountability through your program, but then they go home. What are they going to do? How do they, what is their experience when they go home? That everything stops, they get motivated, they get excited, they get interested, and they actually are looking for ways to apply for jobs, looking for ways to get jobs, but you can't go online and study for your driver's test. You can't go online and study for your- GRE. GRE- Well, no, GRE's graduate, but GED? GED. Yeah, and that's where a lot of people are. Yeah, you were talking about occupations, but I would take that even to just being a functional member of society. You can't engage with other thought processes. You can't engage with other opinions. You can't engage with current events without being connected to something digital in this point in human history. I don't want us to make it sound like everybody in rural communities are in the dark ages. That's not true. Because they're not, but I believe that they will be soon. That's not good enough. After the repeal of the Obama era net neutrality regulations in June of 2018, the chairman of the United States federal communications commission, or the FCC, was quoted by the Washington Post as stating, "And in the medium to long term, I think we're going to see more investment in high-speed networks, particularly in rural areas that are difficult to serve." This is our hope too. Rural America accounts for 97% of our country's total landmass. That's 2.23 billion acres of land, and 20% of our population according to the United States Department of Agriculture. But those stats actually are quite worrisome. We're talking 20% of our population spread out over 2 billion acres of land, which makes connecting them to the internet expensive, difficult, cumbersome, sometimes impossible. So because of that, it's not always a key priority for many for-profit or private internet providers. Historically, much of this expansion has been funded by the government and carried out by nonprofit agencies, meaning that historically and currently rural internet access is a federal and state concern. Since 2011, the federal government has funded the Connect America Fund, and it has worked to expand and increase internet and broadband access to millions of Americans. The FCC stated on their website the following quote, and I'm reading it, "The Connect America Fund aims to connect 7 million unserved rural Americans to broadband in 6 years and puts the nation on a path to connect all 19 million unserved rural residents by 2020." The FCC launched this unprecedented broadband expansion in 2011 when it reformed and modernized the Universal Service Fund, which connected rural America to the telephone network in the 20th century. The commission created the Connect America Fund to unleash the benefit of broadband for all Americans in the 21st century. In the first phase, about 115 million of public funding will be coupled with tens of millions more in private investment to quickly expand broadband infrastructure to rural communities in every region of the nation. Joe McCue is the manager for Fiber Assets for Great Lakes Energy. The energy co-op that supplies most of northern lower Michigan, Kalamazoo all the way to the Mackinac bridge. Great Lakes Energy has taken charge of installing, managing, and maintaining fiber connections for all nine of their service areas. They are starting with their Petosky service area and as Joe puts it, writing the book on how to connect their rural communities to fiber internet. So, how we fit into this is, we're an electric cooperative. Cooperatives were started back during the depression. The farmers didn't have electricity. It wasn't cost-effective to run electricity out to the farms. So President Roosevelt came up with the Rural Electrification Act, I think it was of 1935, and all it did is it guaranteed loans for the farmers to start cooperatives to build electric facilities, the poles, the wires, everything out to them and start electrifying the farms. And so that took hold. And that's why you have all of the electric cooperatives in America. Still to this day. Still to this day, yeah. So how does that feed into what you're doing now? We kind of look at it as like the second evolution of our purpose, I think, is what it comes to. It's like, your generation, kind of at the start of my generation, is like, if you heard nobody didn't have electricity, you'd be like, what? Everybody's got electricity. How has that even possible? We want electricity everywhere. But, we're going to be the ones that remember people not having internet. And in 20 years from now, everybody's going to have high-speed internet. So that's where we see this as we own a lot of the infrastructure needed to do it already. We have all the poles, we have the right of ways. And so, it's another wire up on the pole, shall you say. And I always tell everybody, you're never going to find a better organization than Electric Cooperative to build and maintain wire and pole infrastructure. And so prior to this, what has the infrastructure of Northern Michigan or rural Michigan looked like? Pretty much you were down to cellular communication, and then also they call it fixed wireless that you can put in, very limited due to the hills and the trees. You can't get the signals through the trees with wireless. And then you had the phone companies, you had telephone service on copper line that was out, but you could not use that for this high data traffic output that you need. You'd have to have fiber for that, and the volume, the amount you want. And then in the cities, in the towns, you had cable companies come in, and they would start putting that cable in, co-ax cable, and they're able to use that, and then give high-speed internet to their subscribers. It's very expensive for them to go build out into the country. And while what Joe is describing might seem like "enough" for rural communities, it's a very different story when it comes to actually working and functioning within the current infrastructure. The problem is, is a lot of times what everybody gauges is good and acceptable. And I always equate it to, if you had a bicycle and you had to ride to work every day, you'd say, this is great. I don't have to walk. But if I come in and then bring a car in, and give you a car to drive to work, you're going to think, well yeah, this bicycle was terrible. Why did I ever have that? But it was better than walking. So that's what I think everybody out in rural Michigan is going to find out when we bring this high-speed internet to them. A lot of people know it already, that come up here, we have a lot of transient them come up here, and part-time residents who have it down in the cities and they come up here and realize, Oh my gosh, it's not even available. You can't even get it. So with all these grants and these funds being allocated by the government for this specific task, it must be an important aspect of society to have internet. Oh yeah. Yeah. When we started looking at this, and like I said, I've even lived in, so... Boyne City schools, which is rural school here in Northern Michigan and many others, I just know this, my kids go to school. Elementary school to get an iPad, middle school, they get a Chromebook. High school, they get an Apple actual computer and all of their books you'd think, Oh, they're loaded up in the computer. They're not. They're out in the cloud. Everything's going out in the cloud. So they need to have a link to look at their textbook. It's not actually loaded up on the device itself. But, what did kids do? Who are way out in the country? You have to go either get the cellular connection, which is expensive, very expensive. Or you go to the library, schedule time at school, go to grandma's house. My kids go to grandma's house because she lives in town, and they can get a high-speed internet connection there. So, I've actually had to sit at the library with my kids linked up so they could do their homework. So, that's really interesting because there might be some people who don't have those. No, but there are people that don't have that. And then to try to come in, it's hard. Mom and dad are working shift work, or they only have one car. You can see where you start to get the massive disadvantage. And that's just education. So my parents, they're both in their seventies and have to go to doctors and everything, and they're down in Ohio. They go to the Cleveland clinic. I remember my mom called me. It wasn't more than, not a year ago. She could no longer call somebody to schedule her doctor's appointments. It all has to be done online. Now they have internet access, and that's not a big problem for them. But that situation is here. So your interaction with your doctor is going to require a high-speed internet connection. And I mean interaction with the government, anything you do with the government right now is, you need internet connection. Taxes, social security- Your Bridge Card- Your Bridge Card, any forms that you need done that is all done through internet. So without this, essentially we could perpetuate that cycle of poverty. What I heard at one of the symposiums I went to was that, if we did not do this, rural America could slide back 20 years. There are bigger issues with that 20 year slide because it doesn't just change how we connect to our social media accounts or apply for jobs. It's a systematic issue that could impact all of our rural counties in Michigan who are run by the same state and federal government. And some of these policies are very inequitable, but that's why Great Lakes Energy is doing what they're doing. But, the standard for education, what we're deciding to do at the state level with education, for rural education, is being based off of what's going on, what we're capable of doing in Grand Rapids. Correct. Or what we're capable of doing in Lansing. Yep. Even in the suburbs, and in Boyne City itself, if you lived in Boyne City, there is the cable company, there's Charter, and then there's the phone company. This effort I think is going to be just a huge changer especially for the rural society, for rural America out there. So I think this is going to just again, not let rural America slide into 20 years ago. And then business-wise, small business-wise, I mean we've seen that already from people who A, can work from home now. The small home businesses now have access to global market. You can sell your stuff on an eBay or Amazon, or whatever you want to do. But, you have to have a really good communication system set up with high-speed. Education-wise, when I was a kid an encyclopedia was awesome. I can only imagine having high-speed internet, and if you didn't offer that to a kid that had to go to an encyclopedia, and another kid that had access to everything on the world wide web, it's night and day difference. They're just going to get left in the dust. Dr. Edward Smith is a rural hematologist oncologist in St. Ignes, Michigan. That's the city just passed the Mackinac bridge. He serves cancer patients from all over the Upper Peninsula, patients who are not only very underserved but also with very limited access to healthcare and resources like modern technology. A few years ago, Dr. Smith worked with a team from Blue Cross that was trying to develop treatment and quality assessments for patients across Michigan, and Dr. Smith spoke up about what he was facing in the Upper Peninsula. What came next, was two oncologists from the University of Michigan who took the time to come up and understand what barriers the patients they were living with. A lot of what they were trying to do such as contacting patients by phone for follow up, or having them call in, or go through internet portals and stuff, sounds real good except we have patients that live in places in the Upper Peninsula that they don't have internet, or they don't have telephones. And even some of them, some patients, even to make a cell phone call, they have to drive a couple miles to the top of a hill to get cell coverage. And, there's places in West Makinac and in Lewis County where there aren't power lines, and there aren't internet. That's just how it is. Some people live in very remote, isolated areas. And so my contribution, so to speak, to that whole thing is on as well as the Michigan Oncology Quality Consortium, which I'm part of is to say, look, not everybody has these things. And to people that practice in major metropolitan areas, they just don't picture the fact that not everybody has a computer, and people don't have internet. So I mean, you have to realize that not everybody has the resources to do all this kind of stuff. And so when insurance companies or the government want to start making rules and involve this, they really need to take into consideration not everybody has these resources. At one of the meetings, I was telling them about the challenges that I face doing oncology in rural areas. And to their credit, they came to St. Ignes, and they spent a day and a half with me, seeing the facilities, understanding what was here. I took them to Newbury and to St. Marie, and took them to the places where people live so they had a better picture of how far people have to travel for stuff. The fact that not everybody has phones, and internet, and many people drive the total of four hours a day if they need radiation therapy, and it just isn't that easy for the people that live in these remote areas. And even when they do get to a hospital, that's very, very limited. And to their credit, they came up and went with me so they could see it. And on top of it, they actually interviewed the patients that had to do this stuff. So they probably interviewed six people that had to get some of their treatment, not just locally, but people that I had to coordinate it with through the University of Michigan. And when I asked Dr. Smith about the outcome of his advocacy, I found that he really did make an impact. Yeah. They were very appreciative of the challenges we face. And then when we have been at these Michigan Oncology Quality Consortium meetings, looking at standards and stuff, we'll refer to things as what we learned when we spend time with Ed was... And they're finding out that some places in the Upper Peninsula, one of the other providers, they have no hospice in their county. One of the big things is when we refer patients to hospice that doesn't exist, or the hospice people might take a week to get out there. So they're, they're finding out that the distance that people travel, and the resources made available are very different. And so you have to think about that when you start coming up with quality measures in deciding when you're going to pay for value-based reimbursement. Now, not everyone can take a two day trip to the UP, and interview patients in order to understand the importance of equitable policies and the need for adequate infrastructure for rural communities, which unfortunately leaves many people who live in these remote places in the dark. Sometimes literally. Dr. Smith was an advocate for his rural communities, and it brought about awareness to the needs of his patients. Great Lakes Energy is making decisions every day that is going to bring about significant changes to Northern Lower Michigan. But as I say in almost every episode, there is still so much work to be done. The work right now, in regards to what we've been talking about, is bringing rural Michigan and rural America on an equal resource plane as urban America. It starts with leaders like Dr. Smith advocating for their rural constituents, but it also includes policy makers. And policy makers that are considering the most underserved and resource-poor communities when making changes in manifestos. Right now is a crucial moment for rural communities, and if it's going to work, we are going to have to work together. Thank you for listening to this Rural Mission. I would like to thank Dr. Ed Smith and Joe McCue for agreeing to be interviewed for this podcast, and I'd also like to thank my husband, Daniel, for letting me take over our Sunday afternoon conversation. As always. I want to thank Dr. Andrea Wendling, the director of the Leadership and Rural Medicine Programs at Michigan State University for making this podcast happen.

Hear how great things happen when you're willing to change! Jake Manthei and his company, Aster Brands, was a client of ours when I led a Blue Ocean Strategy workshop for their manufacturers last year. These were very smart individuals who each knew it was time to find their Blue Ocean. They also knew they have to continue to innovate, find new ways to solve problems, and at times, pause and re-think “the way we do things.” We had a great time, and I learned a lot about how companies can listen to client needs, see unmet ones, and turn those ideas into real business opportunities, even without following a Blue Ocean Strategy process. It's all about learning how to listen differently. Now it's your turn...listen in! A family business that's passionate about unleashing possibilities Aster Brands provides forms, molds, equipment and support for concrete manufacturers around the globe. What sets it apart is less what it does than how it does it. This is a very Blue Ocean company. Aster Brands is also the parent company of Redi-Rock International, Rosetta Hardscapes and Pole Base. You will love Jake and enjoy his journey with us I really liked Jake's three core principles for his organization: Lead the Way, Never Give Up, Always Be Caring. I know they will give you some ideas about how to think about your own organization and the values you hold dear. The conversation in our podcast is three-fold: How does a family firm (Aster Brands is now into its fourth generation) sustain its growth and its family roots? How did Redi-Rock take such an innovative, Blue Ocean approach to solving a real unmet need for builders—namely, how to build strong retaining walls more easily and effectively? What is the power of Aster Brands' culture and its core values for attracting and retaining talent from across the country to Petosky, Michigan, which is neither an area of high density nor necessarily a popular go-to community? Background on Jake Manthei Jake is a fourth-generation entrepreneur and a partner in The Manthei Group, a collection of companies in a wide range of industries across North America that was originally started in the early 1900s by Jake's great grandmother, Constance Manthei, who grew and sold aster flowers. Over the decades, Constance's small venture grew to include a hardwood veneer and plywood mill, a heavy construction company, a concrete company, a local microbrewery and several RV resorts, in addition to Aster Brands. Its motto: "Enriching lives through our creations." Jake graduated from Arizona State University with a degree in marketing.

A Sunday Morning message given by John Petosky at Haven of Hope entitled, "Two Kings." March 18th, 2018.
GUEST: Shadi Petosky #1 [9-24-15]Shadi Petosky is an American comics author, designer, and television animator.In September 2015, Petosky, who is transgender, was detained at the Orlando International Airport when a full-body scanner her penis, which a Transportation Security Administration agent marked as an anomaly. When Petosky explained to the agent that she is transgender, and has an atrophied penis. The agent replied, in a way that Petosky felt was lacking in tact, that she would have to either choose whether she wished to have the scanner calibrated for male or female anatomy, or else undergo a physical examination by an agent whose gender she could choose. Shaken by the prospect of either scenario, she was detained and questioned for 40 minutes by the TSA agents, including explosives specialists, who gave her two full body pat downs and searched her luggage. Petosky asked if they had a protocol for dealing with transgender people, and the agents replied that knew what they were doing.

GUEST: Shadi Petosky #1 [9-24-15]Shadi Petosky is an American comics author, designer, and television animator.In September 2015, Petosky, who is transgender, was detained at the Orlando International Airport when a full-body scanner her penis, which a Transportation Security Administration agent marked as an anomaly. When Petosky explained to the agent that she is transgender, and has an atrophied penis. The agent replied, in a way that Petosky felt was lacking in tact, that she would have to either choose whether she wished to have the scanner calibrated for male or female anatomy, or else undergo a physical examination by an agent whose gender she could choose. Shaken by the prospect of either scenario, she was detained and questioned for 40 minutes by the TSA agents, including explosives specialists, who gave her two full body pat downs and searched her luggage. Petosky asked if they had a protocol for dealing with transgender people, and the agents replied that knew what they were doing. She was released after the TSA established that there was no danger, though she missed her flight, and spent an extra day in Miami.In June 2017, Petosky launched the Amazon Video animated series Danger & Eggs, which she co-created and provides voice work for.Shadi Petosky [Twitter]www.twitter.com/shadipetoskyHOST: Brandon CarmodyRadio Host, LGBTQ Activist, Piano Man, Actor and Musical Artist.
