In The Great American Retro Road Trip: A Celebration of Roadside Americana (Artisan; hardcover; June 24, 2025), join journalist Rolando Pujol on a coast-to-coast celebration of the nostalgic pleasures of America's vintage signs, quirky roadside attractions, and offbeat fast-food relics.A taste of the 1000 iconic locations listed includes:The 21-foot Buck Atom, a Muffler Man space cowboy deposited by aliens at an old gas station on Route 66 near Tulsa, Oklahoma.

So Chance and Carlton were unable to get a recording together with the Federal Funding threats to the Historic Preservation Fund keeping their schedules incredibly busy into the evening. So, instead, here's an ENCORE episode from A Life in Ruins Podcast featuring Chance and Carlton back in graduate school.In this episode, Carlton is joined by Chance Ward, an M.A. student in Museum and Field Studies at CU Boulder and a Tribal Citizen of the Cheyenne River Sioux Tribe. The two start the episode with a discussion on how Chance got into Anthropology at Fort Lewis College. We then delve into his post-undergrad career in CRM and working for the Southern Ute Tribe. Carlton investigates why Chance chose CU Boulder and they get into a dialogue about how Chance's grad school experiences have shaped the direction of his career. In the final segment, Carlton and Chance talk about their recent media experiences together such as being interviewed for a PBS documentary on horses and a conversation they had with Mel B's (Yes, the one from the Spice Girls) agent.LinksThe Archaeology of the North American Great Plains by Douglas B.

Listen to the SF Daily podcast for today, June 18, 2025, with host Delaney Howell. These quick and informative episodes cover the commodity markets, weather, and the big things happening in agriculture each morning. All eyes are on the Federal Reserve as it continues its two-day policy meeting, with outside markets like the Dow Jones, S&P 500, and NASDAQ reacting to any signals on interest rates or economic outlook. Grain markets opened mixed, while live and feeder cattle are also trading mixed early. On the oilseed front, the National Oilseed Processors Association (NOPA) reported a May soybean crush of 192.8 million bushels, bringing the marketing year total to 1.733 billion bushels—up from last year but still trailing the seasonal pace needed to meet USDA targets. Soyoil prices surged nearly 16% between Friday and Monday, with December crush spreads jumping above $2 per bushel, the highest so far this year. In the meat sector, boxed beef prices soared on Tuesday, with choice cuts up $4.40 and select up $5.07.

Housing intensification is a key priority for Auckland Council as Auckland's population is forecast to reach 2.3 million by 2050. But as planning for growth continues, some Auckland residents have expressed concern about the approval of developments in areas on flood plains or particularly prone to natural disasters. With Kāinga Ora selling homes as ‘high risk investments' in areas which were impacted by flooding in recent years, and 15 percent of all granted consents for new builds by Auckland Council being on floodplains, I spoke to Councillor Julie Fairey about how the council is taking into account these issues for the coming years.

One of the biggest wildfires in the American west right now is burning about 4 miles north of Plains in western Montana's Sanders County.
Wyatt Flores is a 23-year-old singer-songwriter from Stillwater, Oklahoma, who's making a name for himself in the Red Dirt music scene, building on the musical legacy of his home state. He grew up on a ranch in a working-class family where he was surrounded by musicians, often hearing them play cowboy songs around a campfire. His father, a drummer, built him a stage in the backyard when he recognized his talent, and his Uncle Bobby taught him how to play guitar. Now Wyatt is playing in front of thousands of fans, singing at the Grand Ole Opry, and writing songs that are winning audiences with their honesty, heart, and vulnerability. His debut album, Welcome to the Plains, explores the rough—and sometimes violent—side of growing up in rural Oklahoma, but it also shows a talent for storytelling and a wry sense of humor. Sid talks to Wyatt about why he's so happy to be back in Stillwater after a couple of years in Nashville, the mental health struggles he's openly shared with his fans, the family member he wants to have on his podcast, and why his favorite food is a breakfast burrito.

Listen to the SF Daily podcast for today, May 28, 2025, with host Lorrie Boyer. These quick and informative episodes cover the commodity markets, weather, and the big things happening in agriculture each morning. Crop progress report recap. There are more corn and soybeans yet to be planted due to wet weather in the Eastern Corn Belt. Ohio is behind pace with replanting in some areas expected. The Commodity Futures Trading Commission is proposing to expand futures trading hours to a 24/7 schedule, but there is a fair amount of pushback on this idea. Weekly soybean, corn export inspections decline. No major trade developments today. Feeder Cattle futures were over $7 lower on the open yesterday as a rumor surfaced that screwworm had been detected in cattle in the U.S. That rumor was later rebuked and futures recovered all but $2.22 cents.

SURPRISE 5‑Star Visit on The Plains! Auburn's Secret Move | UF Closes the Gap During Huge OV Weekend
Send us a textStep back in time to the vast, untamed expanse of 1867 Kansas, where the nearest neighbor might be half a day's ride away and survival demanded extraordinary grit. Through the eyes of Civil War veteran Elias Thorne, we uncover the raw, unfiltered reality of frontier life that exists beyond the romantic myths and simplified histories.The Kansas prairie tested human endurance to its limits. From carving homes literally from the earth—the legendary "soddy" with its mud-dripping ceilings and unwelcome snake visitors—to the backbreaking labor of breaking virgin prairie soil with primitive tools, nothing came easy. We explore how settlers like Elias faced relentless environmental challenges: howling blizzards that imprisoned homesteaders for days, devastating prairie fires that could destroy everything in minutes, and the constant psychological weight of profound isolation.What makes this journey particularly compelling is witnessing how Thorne's personal struggle unfolded against the backdrop of momentous historical shifts. The Kansas Pacific Railway pushed westward, forever altering the landscape. The Medicine Lodge Treaty negotiations attempted to reshape relationships with Plains tribes like the Cheyenne and Comanche, whose entire way of life faced existential threat. These weren't distant headlines for frontier settlers but immediate realities that shaped their daily existence.The heart of this story isn't about conquest or heroics, but about quiet endurance—the day-by-day perseverance required to transform "free land" into a sustainable home through ingenious adaptation and stubborn determination. Whether it's rationing dwindling firewood during a multi-day blizzard or carefully preserving every scrap of food for the lean months ahead, we witness the extraordinary resourcefulness that frontier survival demanded.What modern frontiers do we face today that require similar resilience? Where do we need that same adaptability and grit in our own lives? Join us for this immersive journey into America's past that reveals timeless truths about human endurance against seemingly impossible odds.Support the showIf you'd like to buy one or more of our fully illustrated dime novel publications, you can click the link I've included.
