This episode of "Reelfoot Forward” features a conversation with Curb Records country singer-songwriter Mo Pitney. On July 3, 2026, he will headline the final night of Discovery Park of America's Rhythm on the Rails concert series and kick off the museum and heritage park's America 250 celebration. Pitney shares his journey from growing up near Rockford, Illinois, in a family rooted in gospel, country and bluegrass music to moving to Nashville at 18, where he ultimately found success in the music industry. He discusses his early record deals, his eventual home at Curb Records, his Grand Ole Opry debut and the artists who shaped his sound, including Johnny Cash, J.D. Crowe and the New South, Jimmy Martin and Bill Monroe. The conversation also explores Pitney's current creative season, including his bluegrass project “Cherokee Pioneer,” recorded in Johnny Cash's cabin; his new album, “The Outskirts of Town”; and “Fiddle Around,” a song inspired by his wife, Emily, and her return to playing fiddle. Pitney also talks about their new TikTok Live performances; his YouTube channel, “Wood Feathers and Fur,” which follows his family's bowhunting adventures; and his work with Rahab House, a nonprofit he and Emily co-founded to provide rescue, refuge and restoration for survivors of human trafficking. Pitney also offers a preview of his July 3 performance at Discovery Park, where he will perform with his full country band and later return for a more intimate acoustic set with Emily on fiddle and Pitney on guitar. It's a conversation about traditional bluegrass and country music, faith, family, heritage, the outdoors and the power of songs that tell a story.

In this episode, Caroline, Taryn, and Liz talk with kitchen expert Cyndy Cantley, principal designer of Cantley & Company. Cyndy joins the show to share her wealth of knowledge on building bespoke, beautifully functional kitchens that stand the test of time, drawing from a legendary career that includes a Bon Appétit magazine cover feature early in her business. The hosts pick Cyndy's brain about shifting kitchen trends—from the cringe-worthy pink laminates of the past to modern hyper-functional layouts—and get her top recommendations for cabinetry, countertop materials, and space planning. Embrace the English Inset: To design a kitchen that looks gorgeous decades later, stick to timeless styles like simple English flush inset cabinetry. Limit your options rather than getting overwhelmed by hundreds of trendy door styles. Prioritize Drawers Over Doors: Base cabinets with deep drawers are far superior to standard doors for storage because they eliminate the need to move items in the front to get to the back, making heavy pots and pans completely accessible. The Case for Clear Islands: If space permits, aim for a clean kitchen island devoid of sinks, cooktops, or appliances. An uninterrupted surface creates an ideal multi-use environment for meal prep, serving, homework, and entertaining. Design for Reality, Not a Dream: Avoid tailoring an expensive kitchen remodel around an idealized version of your lifestyle. If you only host formal dinners twice a year, don't sacrifice daily functionality for features meant only for entertaining. The Magic of Real Stone: Don't let builders scare you away from natural marble. It's far more resilient than people think, ages with a beautiful European patina, and chips can easily be blended because it is solid rock. 00:34 – Introduction to kitchen expert Cyndy Cantley. 01:17 – Cyndy's serendipitous start: Designing a show house kitchen that led to a project for award-winning chef Frank Stitt and a Bon Appétit cover. 03:24 – The history of kitchen design trends, from pink Corian and pickled wood to painted finishes. 06:04 – Falling in love with English inset cabinetry and keeping a portfolio timeless. 09:17 – The anatomy of a cabinet door: Rails, styles, and maintaining perfect proportions. 11:16 – Understanding the standard 4-inch toe kick and aligning it with major American appliances. 12:24 – The functionality of wide drawers vs. standard doors and pull-outs. 14:48 – Smart corner solutions: Why swing-out organizers beat old-school lazy Susans. 16:35 – High-value internal inserts worth your budget: Alphabetical spice drawers, dual cutlery organization, and tray dividers. 25:00 – Designing for pets: Incorporating custom dog bowl cubbies built with slab scraps. 28:39 – Smart alternative storage: Utilizing ceiling-height cabinets and 12-to-15-inch deep floor-to-ceiling dish cabinets. 30:36 – Appliance garages, coffee stations, and pocket door mechanics. 36:38 – The truth about microwave placement, microwave drawers, and hidden panel-ready fridges. 47:36 – Countertop deep-dive: Falling in love with marble, managing budgets, and color matching slabs. 55:34 – Choosing kitchen flooring: The warmth of wood vs. traditional cold tiles. 56:45 – Kitchen hardware layout tips: Mixing knobs, drop pulls, and custom backplates. 01:00:06 – Functional spatial rules: Why right-handed cooks should always place dishwashers on the left and trash pull-outs on the right. Mentioned in This Episode Cantley & Company: Cyndy's custom design studio specializing in bespoke cabinetry and space design. Frank Stitt's Kitchen: The career-launching project featured on the cover of Bon Appétit. Calacatta & Carrara Marble: The pros, cons, and budgeting realities of high-movement stones.

Chris, Andrew, and David catch up after a missed week of recording and quickly dive into the kind of deeply practical Rails work that only comes from real production pain. Andrew shares the massive subscription and billing migration happening at Podia, including Stripe edge cases, legacy plan preservation, and stress-test tooling built from live scenarios. Chris then goes deep on a Hatchbox email cancellation flow that turns into a Rails internals rabbit hole around Action Mailer callbacks, mail delivery cancellation, and a tiny Rails PR born from production debugging.

What does it take to keep a product healthy after more than 15 years of continuous evolution? In this episode, Robby Russell talks with Chris Coyier, co-founder of CodePen, about the long game of maintaining software. Chris shares how CodePen has evolved over time, the trade-offs involved in migrating parts of the platform from Rails to Go, and the challenges of balancing maintenance work with the desire to build what's next. They also explore the human side of maintainability, the role of technical debt in shaping priorities, and why small teams often have to make very intentional decisions about where to invest their limited time and attention. Whether you're maintaining a side project, stewarding a legacy application, or helping a team navigate change, this conversation offers practical insights into building software that lasts. Key Topics Defining what "well-maintained software" really means Why maintainability is often more of a people problem than a code problem The origin story of CodePen Supporting a product that has evolved over 15 years Balancing maintenance work with product evolution Gradually migrating from Rails to Go Using GraphQL across multiple implementations Technical debt and its many interpretations Team size, communication overhead, and organizational design Simplifying software by embracing browser capabilities Links & Resources ChrisCoyier.net Chris Coyier on Bluesky CodePen ShopTalk Show CSS-Tricks Book Recommendation Understanding Comics: The Invisible Art (Goodreads) by Scott McCloud Thanks to Our Sponsors!

Hillman, Michigan, began as Brush Creek, a small settlement shaped by timber, water, farm trade and the Thunder Bay River. In this episode of Michigan Moments, we follow Hillman from its early days as a Montmorency County center to its years as a railroad stop, hotel town, farm market and Lake Avalon resort community.The story includes State Street, Louis Davidson's Department Store, the Winona Hotel, the Hillman depot, local elevators, Cronk's service station, early automobiles, hunting clubs and the cottage culture that grew around Brush Lake, later known as Lake Avalon.One of Hillman's most surprising turns came when the Detroit & Mackinac Railway reached the village after the old pine boom had already faded in much of the region. The train gave Hillman a boost, but the town's future came from something broader: farms, stores, roads, lake visitors and a main street that kept coming back after fire and change.This episode is for listeners interested in Hillman history, Montmorency County, Northern Lower Michigan, vintage Michigan towns, logging-era communities, small-town railroads and early Michigan resort life.The End of the Road in Michigan is a production of Thumbwind Publications
Most duck hunters have flushed a Sora rail from the cattails at some point, but few know much about these secretive marsh birds. In this episode, wildlife biologist Eamon Harrity joins the show to discuss the fascinating world of rails. We cover Sora migration, nesting habits, habitat needs, population trends, and the unique adaptations that allow these birds to thrive in dense wetland environments. Eamon also shares stories from his research on Ridgway's Rails and discusses some of the biggest unanswered questions surrounding rail behavior and conservation. If you've ever heard the distinctive call of a Sora echoing across a marsh and wondered what you were hearing, this episode is for you. Topics discussed:• What exactly is a rail?• Sora migration and wintering grounds• Nesting and breeding behavior• Why rails are so difficult to study• How rails find isolated wetlands during migration• Rail hunting history and regulations• Wetland management and conservation• The future of rail research Follow the North American Waterfowler Podcast for new episodes every week.

Artificial intelligence agents are beginning to make their presence felt in online payments. At present, they typically discover options for purchase and present users with buy options. However, many are already looking towards a future where AI agents have wallets and the ability to pay for small items with stablecoins. This could also create the opportunity for machine-to-machine micropayments. Chad Harper, head of the Coinbase Institute, joins Lewis McLellan, head of content at OMFIF's Digital Monetary Institute, to discuss the rails that will facilitate agentic payments, particularly x402, Coinbase's payments protocol.

Here's a title and description you can use for the episode: Title: Across the Pond and Off the Rails? Our Take on Two Wild British Sex Shows In this entertaining episode of Hot Wife Podcast, Vince and Donna dive into two British television shows—one centered around a legal brothel and the other focused on a swinger club. While both programs offered a fascinating glimpse into a side of British adult culture, neither left us thinking, "Sign us up!" We discuss the people, the atmosphere, and the overall vibe portrayed in each show, sharing why we felt these weren't places we'd personally be interested in visiting. More importantly, we question whether these productions really represent the broader lifestyle and sexual culture found throughout Britain. Along the way, we have plenty of laughs, compare notes from our own experiences, and explore how reality television often amplifies the most unusual personalities for entertainment value. Whether you're curious about international swinger culture or just enjoy hearing us react to some truly memorable television, this episode delivers plenty of fun conversation and honest opinions.

'BradCast' 6/8/2026: Trump Rails Against CA Elections, Presents No Evidence of Fraud by Progressive Voices
Free Summer shows at Greenfield's Depot Street Park begin this Friday night, and Parks & Rec director Julie Patterson stopped by to talk about them.
Today for "Rails Report #1", I want to unpack a phrase that gets used a lot, but still means different things depending on who you ask: "invisible rails".-- For a consumer app builder, invisible rails are the infrastructure layers that sit underneath the product experience and make everything feel effortless. The user does not need to think about settlement, custody, payments routing, identity checks, or reconciliation. They just open the app, move money, make a decision, or complete a workflow, and the system handles the complexity in the background. That matters because consumer products win when friction disappears. The best products do not ask people to understand the machinery. They make the machinery disappear.In finance, that has become even more important. The old stack was built around visible institutions, visible intermediaries, and very visible friction.The next stack is different. It is faster, more modular, more programmable, and increasingly embedded inside products that do not even look like financial services at first glance.For a builder, this changes the game in three ways:First, you can design for behavior instead of infrastructure constraints. You are no longer forced to make the user adapt to the back end.Second, you can move from one large product to many small actions. Payments, savings, investing, FX, identity, and settlement can all become moments inside a broader experience rather than separate destinations. Third, you can create trust without exposing complexity. The user does not need to see every rail to feel that the system is reliable, secure, and instant.That is what invisible rails really mean. Not just better technology, but a different product philosophy: hide the plumbing, improve the experience, and let the user focus on the outcome.If you build in consumer finance today, that is probably one of the biggest shifts to understand.-- The podcasts are authored, edited and produced by Raph Grieco (raphael-grieco.com | olivecapital.vc).
Welcome back to “Runway Series”, the podcast produced by Olive Capital.I am still your host, Raph, and this season is a bit of an evolution.We're still following the same curiosity that's always shaped this show, the stuff changing underneath finance, product, and the way people build and finance tech innovation, but we're packaging it in a more focused way. We'll be exploring a few themes that feel especially important right now.One is invisible rails: the infrastructure quietly reshaping how money moves, settles, and flows through everyday products.Another is the agentic economy: what happens when software starts doing more of the work, not just helping us do it. We've already started exploring this theme last year.We'll also look at trustless privacy, how people and companies can share less, protect more, and still move faster.And we'll spend time on everyday money: the consumer fintech questions that matter most in practice, from how people manage their accounts to what makes a financial product actually stick. The idea is simple. Keep following the signals, keep talking to the people building the future, and keep making sense of what all of this means in real life. That's what this season is about.The topics will intermingle for sure, this is an exploration, so we will see how this season unfolds.-- The podcasts are authored, edited and produced by Raph Grieco (raphael-grieco.com | olivecapital.vc).
Recorded June 5, 2026 This week on Off the Rails, we descend into the glamorous, finger-burning, cable-stretching world of Layer 1: the place where every brilliant AV system either starts working… or quietly dies behind a rack because someone trusted a discount connector. The regular panel is joined by Stacy Kaskon and Brant Mathiason from Neutrik to talk about why physical connectivity still matters, why proper termination is becoming a lost art, and how Neutrik's new FAST training initiative aims to teach students, techs, integrators, and higher ed AV teams how to build, test, and trust the cables and connections literally holding their systems together. Soldering, RJ45s, fiber, connector standards, classroom durability, InfoComm training, and the eternal truth that no amount of programming will fix a bad cable all make the cut. Then, because this is Off the Rails, the group swaps horror stories about cursed terminations, fiber polished in bucket trucks, cables pulled with pickup trucks, adapters stacked like archaeological layers, and all the other "temporary" fixes that somehow became load-bearing infrastructure.

Episode 227 with Mimi Kufour, Global COO of KoinKoin, a digital assets exchange and financial infrastructure company focused on solving cross border liquidity and payment challenges across Africa and other emerging markets. Mimi oversees the company's global operations across multiple jurisdictions and works closely with regulators as digital asset frameworks continue to evolve. She also serves as a Strategic Advisor to the Chamber of Digital Assets and Blockchain Innovation in Ghana, contributing to policy development and industry alignment across the region.In this episode, we explore how Africa's financial infrastructure is evolving and why digital assets are increasingly being viewed as more than just investment vehicles. Mimi shares her perspective on the structural challenges that continue to hinder cross border trade and payments across the continent, and explains how emerging technologies such as stablecoins are creating new possibilities for moving value more efficiently between African markets.Drawing on KoinKoin's experience operating across multiple regulatory environments, Mimi discusses the realities of building compliant digital asset infrastructure while engaging directly with policymakers and regulators. She examines the opportunities created by Africa's evolving regulatory landscape, the challenges of balancing innovation with oversight, and the growing debate around the role of governments, central banks, and private operators in shaping the future of financial services.What We Discuss With MimiWhy Africa may have a unique opportunity to build new financial infrastructure rather than retrofit legacy banking systems.How stablecoins and digital assets are evolving from speculative assets into critical infrastructure for payments, liquidity, and trade.The race to regulate digital assets across Africa and whether fragmented national frameworks are slowing innovation and growth.The tension between dollar denominated stablecoins and Africa's ambitions for monetary sovereignty and financial independence.What needs to happen before 2030 to unlock a truly borderless financial system that supports trade and investment across the continent.Did you miss my previous episode where I discus The Untapped Trillion Dollar Opportunity in Africa's Diaspora Economy?

Brandon Thrower and I sat down via FaceTime to talk about the Ridge to Rails races coming up on June 6th. There is a 50k, Half Marathon and 10k. As of the recording, there were still some spots available, so sign up quickly! Brandon and I had recorded a podcast about this race a few years ago, but there have been quite a few changes to the courses. We are so fortunate for all the new trails that have opened and the access we have to them for races such as these. If you are running in any of these races, you will want to listen. Brandon talks thoroughly about each course, including aid station and crew information. Lots of pertinent information for you to hear! Enjoy, and I will be praying for good weather and good times to all those running out there!

Recorded May 21, 2026 In this road-show episode of Off the Rails, the crew broadcasts live (from the same room, even) from NWMET in Salt Lake City, surrounded by too many laptops, too many cables, travel fatigue, and the kind of improvised conference setup that makes AV people both proud and deeply ashamed. The conversation starts with two cheerful reminders that everything is temporary: digital signage may be "dead," meeting room appliances may be next, and anything running on abandoned Android builds is probably just waiting to become tomorrow's security problem. From there, the group digs into the real higher-ed pain points behind cloud-managed signage, appliance lifecycles, accessibility requirements, captioning, and why "cheap and fast" usually leaves "good" bleeding out behind the rack. They also recap NWMET itself, including the executive summit, AI sessions, accessibility discussions, vendor floor discoveries, oversized displays, strange LED signage widgets, USB bridge boxes, and one especially baffling speaker deployment that may or may not have been designed during a bad trip. It's a conference recap, a product roast, and a warning label for anyone who thinks AV support can be handled entirely from a browser tab.

The U.S. State Department's Pax Silica initiative reframes Pax Americana for the AI age — chips, semiconductors, critical minerals, energy, data centers, payment rails. This week in Beijing, two of the Trilogy of Boards Patrick Wood predicted clicked into place. The Trilogy is now whole. In this two-and-a-half-hour conversation, Courtenay Turner and Patrick Wood — co-authors of The Final Betrayal: How Technocracy Destroyed America — walk the architecture being built around you: Pax Silica, the IMEC corridor, the Abraham Accords as the template for the China play, the Five Walls boxing China in, Gaza's new order under the Board of Peace, Taiwan as silicon shield and silicon hostage, the tokenization of property and the New York Stock Exchange, the occult roots of the technocratic movement, and how to think about preserving sovereignty, autonomy, and property in a rapidly closing system.

Кирилл Мокевнин – сооснователь онлайн-школы программирования «Хекслет», разработчик с почти двадцатилетним стажем, амбассадор организованного программирования и автор одноимённых YouTube- и Telegram-каналов. Он работал с Ruby on Rails ещё в коммерческой разработке, вокруг Rails строился сам Хекслет, и во многом на рельсах формировался его инженерный опыт. Rails много раз хоронили, но он почему-то продолжает жить. В него коммитят, вокруг него остаются большие продукты, он по-прежнему очень быстро закрывает типовые веб-задачи и даёт то самое ощущение, что один человек может сделать приложение от и до. Разбираем главные идеи рельсов: convention over configuration, ActiveRecord, миграции, серверную шаблонизацию, jobs, очереди и готовую инфраструктуру. Отдельно обсуждаем тёмную сторону этой философии: магию, метапрограммирование, динамически сгенерированные методы, колбэки в моделях, before_validation, жирные модели и боль больших проектов. А ещё – Sorbet, Tapioca и то, почему Кирилл со временем стал больше ценить типизацию, кодогенерацию и более «деревянный» код. Не обходим стороной фронтенд в рельсах: Hotwire, Inertia, React, TypeScript и вечный спор о том, где не писать JavaScript действительно полезно, а где превращается в тупиковую ветку. Ну и конечно обсуждаем главное: кому Rails вообще нужен сегодня. Почему его рано списывать, в каких продуктах он всё ещё даёт огромную скорость, а где лучше честно выбрать другой стек. Также ждем вас, ваши лайки, репосты и комменты в мессенджерах и соцсетях!

Cross-border payouts are one of those problems everyone complains about and then quietly accepts: high fees, slow settlement, and endless workarounds to get money into the hands of real people. I sit down with Cyril Mathew, Co-Founder and CEO of Latitude, to talk about why “faster money movement” only matters when the recipient can actually spend it in local currency, not just hold a stablecoin balance.Cyril walks through the career path that shaped his view of payments infrastructure, from scaling partnerships at Facebook to seeing the payout pain firsthand at Uber, then helping launch international expansion at Coinbase and working on USDC. That experience leads to a hard-earned lesson from Stripe: even if stablecoins let you reach 100 countries, adoption stalls if users cannot convert easily into pesos, reals, or other local currencies to pay for everyday life. The real product is the bridge between stablecoins and fiat, built with compliant rails, strong controls, and the “boring” payment details that enterprises demand.We break down what Latitude is building with its Liquidity Network, how stablecoins can reduce cross-border payment costs, and why real-time settlement can cut the need for prefunding and complex treasury float. We also cover where the biggest growth opportunities are showing up right now, including creator economy payouts, contractor payments, AI data labeling, fintech apps going global on day one, and the looming question of how AI agents may transact across borders.If you care about stablecoins, blockchain payments, real-time payments, or global payout infrastructure, this episode is for you.
This week on The Running Mullet… What happens when you mix trail runners, a moving train, and a little Appalachian magic? You get the legendary Highball to Thurmond — one of the most unique races in the area. Set deep in the New River Gorge of West Virginia, runners can choose from multiple distances — from a shorter scenic 50k to rugged 50 mile run, ruck, and relay distances that wind through historic rail towns, forested trails, crushed gravel, and relentless Appalachian climbs. But no matter the distance, the mission stays the same: Beat the train. Participants race toward Thurmond while the Amtrak line rolls alongside the gorge below. Finish before the train arrives, and you've officially outrun it. Then, after the suffering is over, runners climb aboard for one of the coolest post-race traditions anywhere — riding the train back to the start with a full car of exhausted trail runners swapping stories and survival tales. This week, we're breaking down the course, the strategy, the train logistics, and why this race has become such a great event for trail runners across the region. Appalachian grit, rail-town history, and a finish line unlike anything else — this week on The Running Mullet.

Andy Cohen is using corporate propaganda to scare Bravo bloggers to not post leaked audio, to promise fans a “big chance” which will probably never happen and so much more none of which has deterred us here today to deep dive it all. Anyone got any leaked Summer House audio they want posted? Speaking of Andy, he seems angry, very angry, at Dorit during this week's RHOBH Reunion Part Two. Thou shall not go against Kyle. RHONJ is not filming despite the big meet up this week at Rails. In other news, RHORI, Episode 5, Kelsey is mad at Rosie for not posting her hair cut on IG, Liz is sad to be selling the boat, Alicia is over hating Rosie and last, but not least, Jo-Ellen provides receipts, proof and timelines that yes, Rulla's husband Brian may still be cheating. @behindvelvetrope @davidyontef Learn more about your ad choices.

Donald Trump's use of state power to persecute his enemies is escalating. The Justice Department indicted James Comey for allegedly threatening Trump with a social media post of seashells spelling “86 47.” Officials are also threatening to punish more media companies for angering the despot. The Comey case is already backfiring: Now that the details have been released, legal experts have mercilessly picked it apart from numerous angles. Even Fox News is quoting experts dismantling it. And Trump himself made it look even more absurd by claiming he knows “86” means “kill” because he saw it...in a gangster movie. When these efforts fizzle, the MAGA base will see the mighty Trump failing once again. We talked to former Federal prosecutor Barbara McQuade, author of The Fix: Saving America from the Corruption of a Mob-Style Government. She explains the deep flaws in the Comey indictment, how Trump's prosecutors are committing flagrant violations themselves, and what accountability for Trump's accomplices could look like later.
