What happens when precarious urban cultural laborers take data collection, laws, and policymaking into their own hands? Buskers have been part of our cities for hundreds of years, but they remain invisible to governments and in datasets. From nuisance to public art, this cultural practice can help us understand the politics of data collection, archives, regulatory frameworks, and urban planning. Busking also responds to underlying questions on the boundaries of the rights to the city, and who has a voice in shaping how our cities are planned and governed.A transnational exploration of street performance, Urban Music Governance examines the intricate limits of legality, data visibility, and resistance from the perspective of those working at the social and regulatory margins of society. Based on a decade of fieldwork in Rio de Janeiro and Montreal, this book offers a lively account of why such an often-overlooked practice matters today.By investigating the role of busking in contemporary society, Urban Music Governance presents an original interdisciplinary study that exposes how power dynamics in policymaking decide issues of access—and exclusion—around us, above and below ground. Jess Reia is an Assistant Professor of Data Science at the University of Virginia, USA, working on data justice, technology policy, and urban governance. Alex Hallbom is a Registered Professional Planner in British Columbia, Canada. He sits on the editorial board of Plan Canada, the professional publication for planners in Canada.

Alan Batista—a well-known striped bass angler, fishing author, and advocate from Maryland—joins the Guide Post to break down a recent run-in with enforcement that sparked serious questions about current fisheries policy. Alan was issued a ticket for allegedly targeting striped bass during a closed season despite doing nothing wrong. This episode dives deep into the reality of so-called “no-targeting” regulations: what they actually mean, how they're enforced (or not), and why they represent a dangerous precedent for recreational anglers and the future of striper conservation. With firsthand experience, Alan sheds light on the confusion and contradictions in enforcement, and ASGA breaks down why these policies fail both fish and fishermen.A must-listen for anyone who fishes for striped bass—or cares about common sense in conservation.

In this episode of Beer and Money, Ryan Burklo, Alex Collins, and Mark SanGiacomo delve into the complexities of life insurance, discussing its various types, the importance of income replacement, and how to determine the right amount of coverage. They explore the differences between term and permanent insurance, including whole life and universal life policies, emphasizing the need for personalized financial planning. The conversation highlights the significance of understanding insurance products, their benefits, and potential drawbacks, ultimately guiding listeners towards making informed decisions about their financial security. Check out our website:  beerandmoney.net For a quick assessment of your current financial life go to: https://www.livingbalancesheet.com/lbsVision/lite/RyanBurklo Takeaways Life insurance is primarily about income replacement. Determining the right amount of insurance is crucial. Your most valuable asset is yourself and your income. Life insurance should fit into a broader financial plan. There are two main types of life insurance: term and permanent. Universal life insurance offers flexibility but has growing costs. Whole life insurance provides guarantees and stability. Policy dividends can enhance whole life policies but are not guaranteed. Understanding the terms of your policy is essential for long-term planning. Consulting with a financial professional is vital for making informed decisions.

Could one fire take everything from you—and you not even be covered? In this urgent and eye-opening episode of https://ready-radio.com, host John Rush takes you beyond the basics of preparedness and into the often-overlooked reality of insurance gaps, fire hazards, and household vulnerabilities. Think you're safe just because you have insurance? Think again. From policies that won't cover total loss, floods, or valuables like firearms and jewelry—John exposes the questions most people don't ask until it's too late. Is your beautifully landscaped yard actually a firetrap? You might be planting future kindling right next to your home—and many landscapers don't even realize it. John breaks down the long-term dangers of junipers, evergreens, and those charming but dangerously close spruce trees. Could a single paint rag or gas can set your garage—and house—ablaze? Discover how improper storage of gasoline, old lawn equipment, and even oily rags can lead to spontaneous combustion, and why storing less might actually be safer. Hear tips on sealed fuel containers, venting, and why some “minor” garage items may need a second look. Are you prepared for the fire you don't see coming? John reveals the overlooked danger zones around your electrical meters, foundation assumptions your insurance won't cover, and even those social media ads for “house fire blankets.” Do they work? He's not sure—but he is sure you need a plan. Most importantly… could your family escape in time? If a fire starts at night, would your kids know not to open a hot door? Can they pop the screen out of a second-story window? Do they know where to meet outside? John walks you through critical family drills, ladder placement, and escape plans—because in a real emergency, you don't get a second take. Fire prevention isn't just about having a hose—it's about asking the right questions before the sirens arrive. Are you truly ready? Or just lucky… so far?

Experience on the ground and policy making. What's the current state of play in the market?  What's been the impact of measures to date? Has the situation improved?  How does the condo glut affect things?  And broadly, is the government plan a good one?We've assembled a housing panel to help answer those questions: Ron Butler + Mike Moffatt + Tyler Meredith!Ron Butler describes himself as a “big, old, overly opinionated mortgage broker, worried about the future of housing for average Canadians.” He's the founder of Butler Mortgage Inc, with over 30 years in the business.  And hosts of his own weekly pod, “The Angry Mortgage Podcast”, where he swears a f**k of a lot and shares his insights about the industry.Mike Moffatt is co-host of the “Missing Middle Podcast.”  His twitter bio says he's a Husband, Father, Brother, Son, Economist and Housing Guy. Among other things, he's an Assistant Professor in the Business, Economics, and Public Policy Group at Ivey Business School, Western University.

The remarkable journey from combat Infantry officer to veteran advocate unfolds as Troy Carrico shares his extraordinary path of service beyond the battlefield. A highly decorated, service-connected disabled Army veteran, Troy reveals how childhood dreams of becoming a fighter pilot evolved into a distinguished military career after learning his eyes weren't suitable for flight.Troy's storytelling captivates as he recounts his transition from Infantry operations to tactical human intelligence following 9/11. With refreshing candor, he describes his work with the elite Iraqi Survey Group—traveling on blackout flights with "suitcases full of money" while searching for weapons of mass destruction. These operations, now declassified, provide rare insight into the complex realities of intelligence gathering during America's most challenging military engagements.The conversation shifts to Troy's innovative leadership at the US Army Corps of Engineers, where he established an intelligence fusion center that revolutionized collaboration between engineers and intelligence agencies. His matter-of-fact descriptions of creating unprecedented partnerships between traditionally siloed organizations demonstrate the practical impact of service-minded leadership. Perhaps most surprising are his revelations about Fort Knox, where he discloses that more foreign gold is stored than domestic—a testament to international trust in American security.Now focused on veteran advocacy through Alabama Veteran Nation, Troy is mobilizing the state's 444,000 veterans into a unified political voice. His investigation into misused suicide prevention funds highlights the critical need for veteran leadership in policy decisions. Troy's straightforward leadership philosophy—"If we have a dog food factory and make dog food, we better be feeding it to our dogs"—encapsulates his commitment to authentic service and accountability.Follow Troy's continuing mission through his political commentary at 1819 News Alabama, and join the movement to ensure veteran voices shape the policies affecting their lives. His story reminds us that true service never stops when the uniform comes off—it simply finds new battlefields.*Sorry we got cut off at the end, but we appreciate all of you who watched or are watching the replay!*Support the showVisit my website: https://thehello.llc/THERESACARPENTERRead my writings on my blog: https://www.theresatapestries.com/Listen to other episodes on my podcast: https://storiesofservice.buzzsprout.comWatch episodes of my podcast:https://www.youtube.com/c/TheresaCarpenter76

We'd love to have your feedback and ideas for future episodes of Retail Unwrapped. Just text us!The Federal Reserve's policy paralysis is creating a perfect storm for retailers heading into the most critical selling season of the year. Inflation is still threatening, labor markets are more fragile than they appear, and tariff-driven price increases are hitting apparel and durables precisely when consumers need to make back-to-school and holiday purchases, Join Shelley and economist Daniel Altman as they discuss how smaller retailers are being systematically squeezed out as they lack the capital to absorb tariff costs at the border, potentially creating inventory shortages during peak selling periods. Their conversation reveals the dangerous disconnect between Washington's focus on Wall Street metrics and the harsh reality facing retailers on Main Street. The timing couldn't be worse—with trade negotiations understaffed and reciprocal tariffs potentially hitting in October or November, retailers may face simultaneous stock market volatility and consumer spending uncertainty during their most profitable quarter.Special Guest: Economist Daniel Altman, author of the ‘High Yield Economics' newsletterFor more strategic insights and compelling content, visit TheRobinReport.com, where you can read, watch, and listen to content from Robin Lewis and other retail industry experts, and be sure to follow us on LinkedIn and Twitter.
