Today on the podcast we have Waleed Suliman! Waleed runs with the Brooks Beasts under Coach Danny Mackey. He ran at Ole Miss, where he was a five-time SEC champion and four-time NCAA All-American, and was part of their 2020 SEC Cross Country Championship team. He also placed third in the indoor mile at the NCAA Championships and has competed in both the 2021 and 2024 Olympic Trials in the 1500. When I was prepping for this interview, I heard Danny Mackey describe Waleed as a high risk taker, not afraid to fail, and very talented, and says that very few athletes he’s worked with have had all three of those qualities. I got to know him a little bit when he came to Raleigh for the Sir Walter Mile and knew I had to have him on the podcast. Unfortunately, he took a nasty fall at Sir Walter and ended up with a stress fracture in his sacrum, so his season ended a little earlier than planned. We talk about the injury, what recovery looks like, and why he’s leaning into some of the other things he loves, like fishing and music, while he can’t run. Waleed was born in Jordan after his parents fled Darfur, Sudan, and moved to the United States at 15. He became a 10-time state champion in Virginia before heading to Ole Miss, where his running really took off. I loved hearing more about his family’s story, adjusting to life in the U.S., finding his place through running, and eventually choosing Ole Miss. We also talk about why the team environment of the Brooks Beasts works so well for him, his relationship with Danny Mackey, what it’s like training alongside athletes like Josh Kerr, and where he wants to take his own career. Waleed has a 3:51 mile PR on the track, 3:52 on the roads, and a 3:33 1500 PR, and he feels like he still has a lot of unfinished business in the sport. And, of course, we get into the fun stuff too: fishing, music, his favorite no-skip albums, his girlfriend’s upcoming Berlin Marathon, and a few book recommendations.

This week on the Industrial Hemp Podcast, we talk to Patrick Atagi, president and CEO of the National Industrial Hemp Council, the organization that's hosting the Seed to Style hemp fiber summit in conjunction with the Fashion Institute of Technology in New York City, Sept. 16-18. This event is a continuation of the conversations NIHC facilitated in Raleigh, N.C., last summer when they held their fiber summit at N.C. State's Wilson College of Textiles. But this year, the stakes are a little higher and the energy burns a little brighter. Because that's what New York City does: It amplifies everything. "It's building materials, it's clothing — the different parts and pieces of hemp all together, making it all work together. And the culmination is a fashion exhibit," Atagi said. The fashion exhibit caps the summit on Thursday evening — hemp coming off the field and onto the mannequin, the "seed to style" idea made real. Also, one big nugget of hemp news this week: Congress has hit the snooze button on the McConnell deadline that threatens to shut down the vast majority of the cannabinoid hemp industry. Intoxicating hemp products are still out, but the industry has an extra month to fight for its future. The clock is still ticking, but now the alarm is set for Dec. 11, 2026.

What would change if we gave athletes a real framework for understanding RED-S — before something went wrong? That's the question driving Hannah Ballowe's entire career right now. Hannah is a professional middle-distance runner, PhD student at NC State, and women's health researcher whose dissertation is focused on creating and validating a REDs-specific screening tool. She's also a former Virginia Tech runner who, despite training with a coach who presented on nutrition, didn't learn what RED-S actually was until she was out of college — and noticed she wasn't alone in that. Heather and Hannah talk through what the culture around fueling, periods, and body image actually looked like on her college team, the comparison trap that nearly consumed her freshman year, the summer she tried eating less and almost passed out at the finish line, and what she's building now to make sure the next generation of athletes has better tools. They also talk about her path to training professionally with coach Lori Hennis in Raleigh, what it's like to balance a PhD and elite training, and her very specific plan to one day run 100 miles.

For this week's story we have the tale of a particularly unwelcome immigrant called “How The Devil Came to America.”Written by Eleanor, it's a piece of arcane folk horror that explores the failure of the infamous Roanoke colony, positing a new theory as to why things went wrong for the residents of ‘The City of Raleigh' in a tale which travels from the private offices of Queen Elizabeth I's chief spymaster Sir Francis Walsingham across the sea to America's eastern seaboard.For hardcore Three Ravens fans, you may notice connections to some of our other stories within this one, including to our 30-part audio adventure from last summer, Dog Days: A Kit Marlow Mystery.And if you have not listened to Dog Days then don't worry – this story stands alone on its own two hooves. Though do please check out Dog Days when you have the chance, as it's a pretty wild ride and was the very first thing we wrote well and truly together.Details in the story were inspired by Solving The Mystery of the Lost Colony Lee Miller and The American Heritage History of the Thirteen Colonies edited in chief by Michael Blow.About Three Ravens

The statistical truth of an overnight success is eight to twelve years. In this episode of Content Amplified, Bill Harper, founder of BrandBossHQ and a 35-year veteran of helping businesses stand apart, breaks down why brands like Dollar Shave Club and Liquid Death only look like they exploded out of nowhere. Bill's core argument: people don't buy the best products, they buy the products they like the best, and no consumer owns a micrometer to test whose razor blade is actually sharper. He walks through his "hole to the goal" framework, where the brand is the ladder that gets a specific group of people out of one specific pain point: a Raleigh plumber who wins on "we're on time or you don't pay a dime," Volvo owning safety, and FedEx building an empire on "absolutely, positively overnight" back when it was a pure B2B play. He also explains why B2B buyers don't stop being emotional consumers just because they put on a tie. If you've ever been told to compete on having the best product, this episode will change how you pick your story.About BillBill Harper is the founder of BrandBossHQ, where he helps businesses figure out the story they have to tell in order to scale, a philosophy he sums up as "no story, no glory." Classically trained in visual communications, he fell in love early in his career with the external side of business: getting the buyer as excited as the person selling. This year marks 35 years of that work.

In our previous episode, we addressed the notion of "raising the lid", speaking up louder for Family Medicine, and for our patients. In this episode, Dr Thomas White converses with Dr Garett Franklin of Raleigh about his career and his special interest in and passion for advocacy for our specialty. Listen and hear how Dr Franklin was introduced to medicine growing up in a small community in North Carolina, and about his journey from undecided, to chemical engineering, to Family Medicine, and then an expertise in Sports Medicine. Dr Franklin provides inspiration to his colleagues to become involved in advocacy, why that matters, how to get started, and even the importance of "PAC" contributions to this process. You will love his lessons learned: a career in medicine is "awesome", we need to restore "fun" to our care of patients, and we should greatly value the importance of "mentorship" to our careers, and the careers of others. (Note: Apologies for the technical hiccups ... But ... a truly great episode!)

Send us Fan MailThe Peace & Prosperity Podcast is a bi-weekly conversation with Dr. Jason Phillips, LCSW, licensed therapist and confidence expert in Raleigh, NC, discussing all things related to self-love and self-confidence, and how we can improve ourselves personally and professionally.Dr. Jason Phillips gets honest about something a lot of high performers don't say out loud: success doesn't replace love, and grief quietly lives in that gap between still achieving and still missing your person. He unpacks the grief myths that sound comforting but often keep us stuck, from "time heals all wounds" to the pressure to act like you should be "over it" by now, and broadens the conversation beyond death to include divorce, estrangement, incarceration, and relationships that never became what you needed—drawing from his own experience losing his grandmother and mother. He also gets into why grinding harder can't repair grief, and how being "the strong one" quietly becomes its own trap. You'll walk away with grounded coping strategies and a challenge to let grief inform your next chapter instead of defining it.

Sandy Bridger said something to me the other night that I haven't stopped thinking about: wine isn't the drink you serve alongside dinner — it's another ingredient in the meal. Once you hear it that way, you can't unhear it. Sandy is the co-owner of DRINK, a Raleigh wine shop she runs with her husband Cam under the tagline "The Somm and The Mom." By day she leads a nonprofit; by night she curates small-production, family-owned wines and designs winemaker dinners people remember. Her philosophy is "intimate, not intimidating" — exactly the skill our industry needs when wine shows up on an event floor plan. And I'm glad Cam, "The Somm," is joining her on this week's Eating at a Meeting LIVE, bringing the technical read of the glass to Sandy's food-and-experience lens. If wine is an ingredient, you cook with it. Sometimes you pair to mask a flavor — heat, bitterness, richness. Sometimes you pair to enhance a dish's best quality. And some wines are incomplete on their own — high-acid, high-tannin bottles that only come alive with food. Why should planners AND suppliers care? At most hotels and convention centers, planners get a short, pre-selected wine list and little say. It's about making the most of it — or making the case for something with a story behind it. The right pour makes guests slow down and connect; for hotels, caterers, and venues, that's experience and revenue on your F&B line. We'll also get into how they source what they pour — family-owned, small-production, "drink globally, source locally" — and how to deliver a "story in a glass" without a $200 bottle. Come watch LIVE and bring your questions. What's the best — or worst — wine you've been served at an event? Let's talk in the comments. Every meal matters. So does every pour.

Preaching from Jonah 3, Pastor Jared Richard opens with a striking observation — the greatest miracle in the book of Jonah may not be the great fish at all, but the repentance of Nineveh, one of the most wicked cities in the ancient world. Drawing on the deliberate literary parallels between Jonah 1 and Jonah 3, Pastor Jared shows that God's second call to Jonah is more than a plot device. It is a picture of mercy — the same mercy God has extended to all of His people, and the very reason we go to the lost. Just as God gave Jonah another chance to rise in obedience, He has given us, through new birth in Christ, not just a second chance but the Spirit-empowered ability to take advantage of it. From there, Pastor Jared turns to what we trust in as we go — the Word of God. He points out that from Jonah 3:5 forward, Jonah himself virtually disappears from the narrative, and it is the Word that does the work. Even with a divided heart, Jonah spoke what God gave him to say, and God used it mightily. Drawing on Philippians 1:15-18, Pastor Jared reminds the church that the mission of God does not depend on our eloquence, our apologetic skill, or even the perfect condition of our hearts — it depends on the faithful declaration of God's Word and trust in the power of His Spirit. Finally, the repentance of Nineveh — believing God, humbling themselves, crying out to Him, and turning from their evil ways — gives the church a clear and compelling picture of what Biblical repentance looks like. And because we carry a greater message than Jonah ever did, the incarnate Word of God Himself in the Lord Jesus Christ, we go with even greater confidence and an even greater promise to offer the lost.

Doeren said at halftime that the wide receivers needed to get open.Ethan's answer: the wide receivers who do get open, you let them walk. You told The Athletic last week that you picked the offensive line over them. And we all know you picked CJ Bailey over them.That exchange is the show. Virginia 34, NC State 8, and we spent 85 minutes on how it happened.The argument worth staying for is the one about roster construction. Ethan's case is that Virginia put together a masterclass and NC State looked like a team that overpaid its quarterback and lost every piece around him. Virginia decided they did not care who played quarterback, took a running quarterback, built a very good offensive line and a very good defense, and took four to five yards a carry all afternoon. His line: they got smoked in the front office.The follow-up is the uncomfortable one. If the number really was three to four million for Bailey, would you rather have paid seven fifty to a million at quarterback and put the other two and a half million on defense? And his point is not that you paid a quarterback, it is which quarterback you paid, because last year the receivers were elevating Bailey and now those receivers are gone.Also in here: why Virginia never faced a third and long, how a long fourth-quarter-style drive with four fourth down conversions took the life out of the building, Harvey Dyson getting only eight pass rushing snaps, Popo Aguirre's 18 tackles that did not matter, and the NFL roster cuts including two undrafted Wolfpack who made 53-man rosters.Where we landed: Layton came down from 10-2 to 8-4. Greg is staying at 9-3. Ethan never moved off 8-4.10 days until Richmond.

Hello everyone, who knew and loved Bart,This is Renata Gregori, his wife. My beloved husband left this earth plane on July 27, 2026, due to pneumonia and infection - complications from conditions he was dealing with since the end of last year.He was the best man I've ever known. He was my teacher, my confidant, my best friend, the love of my life and my touchstone for all that is good and righteous. I could always count on him to put things in perspective for me and check me, when I was off base. We had a celebration of life at our house in Mexico yesterday and it was so beautiful. Music, laughter, tears and beautiful people. Bart has been laid out at our house for two days. As per his wishes, he will be cremated today.Please continue to contemplate his teachings, read his books and watch his videos. I send my Love to all who knew and loved him and all whose lives he touched. Bart Marshall described his spiritual path as “self-guided eclectic.” It began with a death experience in Vietnam in 1968 and ended in 2004 on an airplane at 30,000 feet over the Atlantic as he returned from a workshop with Douglas Harding. In those intervening years he “turned over every rock” in his quest for a final answer, but counts three teachers as the most influential: Richard Rose, Nisargadatta Maharaj, and Douglas Harding.He founded Self Inquiry Group (SIG) in Raleigh, North Carolina and for many years held weekly meetings before stepping back in 2013. Sometimes called “the reluctant guru” by those who know him, Bart nevertheless traveled widely to speak when asked, and teaches retreats and intensives with Deborah Westmoreland (Conscious TV interview) events that proved to be highly transformative for participants.Bart was the author of The Perennial Way: New English Versions of Yoga Sutras, Dhammapada, Heart Sutra, Ashtavakra Gita, Faith Mind Sutra, and Tao Te Ching, and Christ Sutras (Fall 2014), which contains the complete sayings of Jesus from all sources arranged as topical sermons.

Hunter didn't set out to become a runner. He joined his high school's cross country team on a whim (mostly because his friends were doing it) and discovered he loved being part of a group more than he loved the actual running. That pull toward community followed him through college, a couple years teaching in Korea, and eventually back to North Carolina, where a local run club led him to Ainsley's Angels. Pushing other runners through races so they could cross the finish line changed how he saw the sport entirely, and it planted the seed for chasing a marathon of his own.Hunter went into the City of Oaks Marathon in Raleigh without a real time goal, just a plan to find the 4:30 pace group and stick with them for as long as he could. That plan hit a snag before he even reached the start line, but he pushed on regardless.. He leaned on that same pacer to get through the miles that followed, one mile at a time, and at the end of the day ended up a marathoner. Follow along with Hunter Pardue: @runhuntrunLearn more about Ainsley's Angels: https://ainsleysangels.org/Follow along with the show:

No city (or metro region) is defying gentrification. All of them are failing at it.I feel that in my bones and soul when I step out of my creative studio and into a world where the train might be cancelled after I made the 15-20 minute walk to the station, and I can only get to McDonald's on foot within 5 minutes.A world where my younger cousins in school may not be valued because they're Black, but maybe they have a good doctor, an amazing community recreation center, and someone to make their hair look dope? I know they probably don't say dope for any reason anymore, but still, we are all aging and growing on this round planet with dwindling water together.That's why I decided to take cities back to school this fall and grade their performance! I did a more qualitative measure of this back in 2018-2019, and now I want to put a number on this work, so you all can more easily measure your city's progress and improve on areas that would be graded “needs improvement” on a traditional report card. A version of this report card is also in The Defying Gentrification Playbook.I graded the six metros/cities I've lived in (Greensboro; Washington, DC; Baltimore; Kansas City; Raleigh; Durham) and four cities I would consider living in (Los Angeles, Chicago, New York, and Atlanta) I counted the core city elements and included adjacent counties if they behave as suburban satellite business districts and villages, not just the legacy city limits and their central business districts. Still, my 13 rubric points for metro regions may not be your 13.However, as a scholar of cities for nearly two decades and a multiply marginalized person as a regular human in cities for 40 years, I feel like my rubric covers everything.I've created a JotForm survey to capture cities and specifically metro regions I haven't been able to include in this series and to test the validity and reliability of my rubric so that this measure can be expanded. I also added a block so that you can tell me what I missed, so it can be added in. My rubric is very US-centric, but a lot of what I'm grading is affected by US federal law. I'd love to see how a Vienna or Hong Kong or London would look in my metric. That's where this survey comes in. Take the survey.Over the next few weeks, as I celebrate my tenth anniversary of dropping everything and moving from Kansas City to Washington, DC, out of my own volition, on the assumption that I could thrive in the District, I'll share my personal grades of cities/regions I've lived in or frequently visited. Over time, I'll update the grades based on what you've told me.This is our bridge between our Black August series on what I can control as a Black queer feminist disabled urbanist, the elders that guide me spiritually, and the on-the-ground facts of what is and isn't present in a city that tickles my Black queer feminist disabled urbanist spidey senses!Now let's get to those things I'm grading on!What's On The Report CardJotform will not let me give cities zeros in its automatic grade setting. It's very similar to my retired middle school teacher mom, who always stopped her Fs in her classroom grades at a 60. Her logic is that a 0 is hard to recover from, but a 60 is fixable. 0.5 signals fixable, but needs fixing.As I mentioned at the beginning, no city achieved a perfect score. The highest grade achieved was a 78, a low C, and the lowest grade was a 67, a high F. The average grade is a 73, which is a low D. Not failing, but barely passing. You'll have to come back in subsequent weeks to find out which cities failed and why. But I will tell you this week what I graded them on, in no special order of importance:Art and creative spaces for all skill and desire levels2- Both amateur and professional artists have somewhere to go that fulfills their need for creativity and a livelihood for their work.1- Only amateur or only professional artists have somewhere to go to practice their art and craft. There's also no real pipeline between the two types of artists, and professional artists are often not homegrown.0.5- No art at all, at least not in visible spaces.Thriving entrepreneurship and gainful employment are available to more than white, straight, abled, wealthy people.2- Both thriving entrepreneurship and gainful (above a living wage based on the MIT calculator) employment are present in folks who aren't straight, white, cis, male, and have family wealth1- Only one or the other is present in non-straight, white, cis, male, and family wealthy folks. Tokens are made of the few people who stand out, because it's not normal; it's extraordinary.0.5- Nobody is working or owning businesses besides the straight white cis male with family wealth. Or others are working, but for under a living wage.Wraparound medical care2- Yes, with a care center that's not a hospital, with all specialties present or able to be referred in-house, an urgent care and pharmacy that are open 24 hours, and accept all insurances and genders.1- Yes, the care center is there, but it's not all inclusive of hours, specialties, genders, and insurances. Or there's just a hospital.0.5- No hospital, no care center.Culturally competent non-medical hair and body care2- You have hair salons for all textures, hair care for all textures in all of your beauty supply stores, and you have practitioners of all types of non-medical or quasi-medical body care sensitive to all skin types and tones and sizes.1- You have these spaces, but they have documented issues with diverse hair types, skin tones, and body sizes0.5- No spaces will even accept a non-white, skinny, straight-haired person into their establishmentsFood that provides both joy and basic nutritional needs in all neighborhoods2- The food is fun and nutritious1- The food is fun or nutritious, not both0.5- There's no food at all. This is not a food desert; this is apartheid.Public transit exists for more than just paratransit users2- Public transit of all types runs for 24 hours a day1- Public transit exists, but outside of paratransit, there are restrictions on its timing, where it takes people, and what type of vehicles/trains there are.0.5- Even disabled folks can't get transportationSpiritual spaces of all faiths that affirm and delight in Black, disabled, feminist and/or queer lives2- All faiths have somewhere to go where their gender, sexual orientation, skin color, size, national origin, and their politics are affirmed and loved in the pursuit of good morality or a divine presence. These places also honor that there are different faiths, or lack thereof, and that's ok. These places respect a gray area, but have clarity on right and wrong that doesn't dehumanize people.1- Some houses of faith behave like the above, but they are few and far between, making it harder for people to plug in and for the communities to have a positive impact on the community.0.5-Houses of faith are all hateful, dogmatic, and even actively terrorizing those that don't believe in their tenets.Schools that affirm Black children K-12, no matter their ability level or perceived behavior.2- Every school, no matter who runs it or how much that might put a target on their backs, believes that Black children can thrive. This investment in Black kids reaps across all children, as in many schools, they are the most marginalized.1- Only a handful of schools, and they are ones you have to apply to and/or pay for, are affirming of Black children.0.5- No schools affirm Black children, and they may be terrorizing them and contributing directly, without shame, to the school-to-prison pipeline.Bookstores and libraries that affirm all authors and all readers.2- Specialized bookstores and libraries exist, and the regular ones honor books that aren't written by white, straight, cis, and male authors.1- Only specialized bookstores and libraries exist, or the regular ones are hostile to readers that aren't white, cis, straight, or male.0.5- No bookstores or libraries exist at all, except for maybe an aisle in Walmart, Target, Dollar Tree, or Dollar GeneralParks, playgrounds, waterfronts, and other natural resources/outdoor activities are not closed off to the public.2- These resources and activities are free and open to the public.1- These outdoor resources have a price tag, or they are partially operated by private entities.0.5- They don't exist at all or are all privatized with no kind of public accessBlack, LGBTQ, disabled, feminist, and other community centers and community events.2- All community centers and events understand that communities overlap and could need support services and culturally competent activities and vendors. They also provide safety for their primary audience of people, while being welcoming.1- Community centers and events for specific groups exist, but they don't serve others or understand intersectional identities or the need for core community safety.0.5- No community centers at allBasic housing that doesn't exceed 30% of one's income at the poverty level and for those under the area median income.2- Housing that meets and exceeds these standards, happily and fully.1- Housing that meets these standards, but begrudgingly and with an outside emphasis on mixed-income areas and market rate areas, without ensuring those who need housing and have no or low income are housed.0.5- People who can pay for housing are unhoused, and of course those who can't are unhoused by default.A way to get out of town that's not your personal vehicle (if you even have one).2- You have an airport that flies internationally, a train station that can take you to all corners of your country and possibly into others, and you have rental cars, rideshares, bikeshares, and trails connected to other cities.1- You have a handful of the above, but not everything0.5- You have none of this besides private vehiclesWhat else stood out with these cities and their initial gradesMost cities had perfect scores on the following measures:* Art and creative spaces for all skill and desire levels* Culturally competent non-medical hair and body care* Spiritual spaces of all faiths that affirm and delight in Black, disabled, feminist and/or queer lives* Bookstores and libraries that affirm all authors and all readers.* Parks, playgrounds, waterfronts, and other natural resources/outdoor activities not closed off to the public.This is not surprising in that these are the easiest things for any city to provide, often without political pushback, although some libraries are under fire for being so diverse, equitable, and inclusive.This is also in line with how movements and lifestyle changes that emerged and became more mainstream during the height of the COVID-19 pandemic have affected and stuck with certain sectors of society, like houses of faith and arts spaces.No city scored above 0.5 on housing, because most cities, even the most progressive ones in the spaces above, meet the standard that warrants a 1. This is a measure I am most looking forward to your feedback on. Same with community centers. I've heard some community centers really struggle with how to be in community and properly handle conflict resolution and intersectional identity. This might actually go down because of things you share with me.In the meantime, Greensboro, my beloved hometown, is up first on a deep dive analysis. I'll be sharing its scores and sharing specific places that fill in the gaps, along with city-specific ways the gaps that aren't filled can be filled.Your city might be a failure now, but by the end of this, it will be a winner!Before you go…I'm bringing classifieds back!

Introducing Morbidology and the case of the 2022 Raleigh Shootings On the evening of 13th October 2022, in the Hedingham neighbourhood of northeast Raleigh, North Carolina, residents heard shots.

Send us Fan MailShame is sneaky because it doesn't just point at what we did, it tries to rename who we are. I open with Isaiah 61:7, because God's promise is clear: He doesn't leave us stuck in disgrace, He restores, He heals, and He gives joy where shame used to sit. We talk about the difference between guilt and shame, why shame makes men hide, and how that hiding quietly benches us from the leadership God intends for our homes, marriages, and daily choices.Come see us at Man Camp in Wanship, Utah on September 25-27, at the I'm Just a Guy Vision Men's Summit in Raleigh, North Carolina on October 10 and at The Camp For Men in Fall River, Kansas on October 23-25.

In this episode of SPACES, Dimitrius speaks with Raleigh-based developer, consultant, and writer Desmond Dunn, founder of The Emerging Developer, about why density alone is not a sufficient measure of successful community development.The conversation was inspired by Desmond's article, “Density Without Infrastructure Is a Recipe for Disaster,” and his argument that density tends to multiply the conditions already present in a neighborhood. If a community lacks walkability, schools, transportation, recreation, grocery stores, economic opportunity, or basic infrastructure, simply adding more residents can intensify those deficiencies rather than solve them.Desmond and Dimitrius also examine how concentrating affordable housing in historically disinvested communities can reinforce existing inequities, why the built environment influences behavior and opportunity, and how development can become disconnected from human outcomes when projects are optimized primarily around financial performance.They discuss the role of small, community-based developers and why people who actually understand a neighborhood may be better positioned to identify what it needs—whether that is housing, mixed-use development, local businesses, public space, or something else entirely.Desmond also explains why meaningful community engagement should happen before a project is designed, not after the major decisions have already been made.Ultimately, the conversation asks developers, architects, planners, and policymakers to think beyond unit counts and consider a larger question:Does what we are building actually make the community better?In this episode:Why density without supporting infrastructure can create new problemsWhy housing unit count is an incomplete measure of successHow density can amplify existing neighborhood conditionsThe consequences of concentrating affordable housingThe relationship between the built environment, psychology, and behaviorHow historic disinvestment continues to shape communities todayWhy many developments are optimized for capital rather than peopleThe importance of neighborhood services, schools, transportation, and economic opportunityWhy small developers matter to the housing ecosystemCommunity-based development versus standardized development modelsWhy community engagement needs to happen before design beginsThe “hardware and software” of healthy communitiesCreating places that encourage human connectionWhy responsible development should create more value for a community than it extractsAs Discussed:Density Without Infrastructure Is a Recipe for DisasterEnjoyed this episode?

At around 4:30 in the morning on Thursday, June 14, 2007, police found the body of 22 year old Jennifer Kathleen Nielsen behind an AmeriKing Food Mart in Raleigh, North Carolina. Jenna was covered in blood, and had been stabbed multiple times. She was also eight and a half months pregnant with her third child. Her father later remembered answering the phone that night, thinking that he would get the news that his daughter had gone into labor. Instead, he got the news that Jenna - and her unborn child - were dead behind a gas station.
