Podcasts about Randolph

Send us Fan MailAaron, Trent, and Peaches are back in the team room talking about something the Air Force should have fixed forever ago: when someone turns down a promotion or loses a line number, that stripe should not just vanish into the bureaucratic shadow realm.Chief Master Sergeant of the Air Force Wolfe is pushing an initiative that would allow those unused promotions to go to the next qualified Airmen in line. Wild concept: if the Air Force says a career field needs ten Tech Sergeants, and two people cannot or will not take the stripe, maybe promote number eleven and twelve instead of kneecapping the career field for no reason.The boys break down how cutoff scores actually work, why the number is not magic, how career fields get hurt when stripes disappear, and why this is one of those rare Air Force changes that is just objectively good.Then it turns into classic Ones Ready: AFPC smoke, Total Force Service Center manning insanity, why knowing a guy at Randolph can magically make the system work, why centralizing admin into one mega-machine broke the personal side of personnel management, and why treating every Airman like a number is not actually fair.To close it out, Aaron pulls up audio from then-Lt Col Dave Goldfein after being shot down over enemy territory. Calm voice. Dead airplane. “Start finding me, boys.” The crew talks about the rescue team, General Tom Palenske leading the helicopter package, Robbie Bean, missiles flying through rotor discs, and why sometimes you launch with incomplete information because Americans go get their people.Also: Trent's new headphones, Peaches explaining crypto delay, Fat Tony-adjacent bureaucracy energy, Operator Training Summit updates, and the ongoing demand that Ones Ready deserves 100K subscribers.Links:OnesReady.comOperatorTrainingSummit.comChapters:00:00 - Ones Ready Intro00:59 - Peaches Steals the Team Room01:39 - Trent's Headphones Deserve Respect02:06 - What Is Going on in the Air Force?02:15 - CMSAF Wolfe's Promotion Fix03:05 - Why Stripes Used to Disappear04:48 - Aaron Missed Master by Almost Nothing05:23 - Air Force Testing Is a Shell Game07:47 - Turning Down Stripes Hurts the Career Field08:30 - Cutoff Scores Are Not Magic09:05 - Space Force Figured This Out First09:26 - Declination Letters and Chief Stripes10:30 - When Tiny Career Fields Break the System12:16 - Good Ideas Still Hit Red Tape13:52 - The “Back in My Day” Crowd14:14 - Wolfe Gets a Huge W15:01 - A1 Might Have to Do Their Job15:39 - AFPC Smoke Session16:06 - AFPC Has Way Too Much Power18:20 - If a Friend Can Fix It, the Rules Are Fake19:46 - How Centralized Admin Broke the System20:48 - Six People Running Total Force Chaos21:31 - Airmen Became Numbers22:02 - Clovis, Family Reality, and Assignment Pain22:43 - Functionals, Favors, and Doing the Work23:49 - Goldfein Shot Down25:23 - “Start Finding Me, Boys”25:39 - The Rescue Team Tradition26:17 - Tom Palenske Led the Rescue27:41 - Playing the Name Game at Dinner28:04 - Missiles Through the Rotor Discs29:30 - Launch Now, Figure It Out30:24 - Operator Training Summit Updates31:00 - Help Ones Ready Hit 100K31:37 - AFA, Travel, and Final Chaos32:27 - Go TrainSupport the showJoin this channel to get access to perks: HEREBuzzsprout Subscription page:  HERERegister for our Operator Training Summit:  OperatorTrainingSummit.comFind an Air Force Recruiter: AirForce.comCollabs:Ones Ready - OnesReady.com 18A Fitness - Promo Code:  ONESREADY ATACLete - Follow the URL (no promo code):  ATACLeteDanger Close Apparel - Promo Code:  ONESREADYDFND Apparel...

Keep winning! Two-time Emmy and Three-time NAACP Image Award-winning, television Executive Producer Rushion McDonald interviewed Schenita D. Randolph. A nurse scientist, Associate Professor at Duke University School of Nursing, and Founding Director of the HEAT Lab (Health Equity, Advocacy, and Trust Lab). The conversation focuses on health disparities impacting Black communities, HIV prevention, the role of nurse scientists, systemic barriers in healthcare, and the importance of community-driven solutions to improve health outcomes. Dr. Randolph also discusses her journey from North Carolina A&T State University to becoming a nationally recognized researcher and advocate for health equity. Purpose of the Interview The interview was designed to: Highlight the critical work being done to address health inequities in Black communities. Educate listeners about HIV prevention and awareness, particularly among Black women. Explain the role of nurse scientists in research, healthcare innovation, and public health. Discuss the impact of systemic barriers on healthcare access and outcomes. Promote community partnerships as a strategy for improving public health. Encourage greater awareness, testing, prevention, and engagement around HIV and other health challenges. Key Takeaways 1. HBCUs Play a Vital Role in Developing Healthcare Leaders Dr. Randolph credited North Carolina A&T State University for laying the foundation for her nursing career and leadership journey. She emphasized the significant impact HBCUs have had on educating healthcare professionals and advancing minority representation in nursing. Lesson: HBCUs continue to be powerful institutions for developing future leaders across multiple professions, including healthcare. 2. Nursing Is Much More Than Bedside Care Dr. Randolph challenged common misconceptions about nursing, explaining that nurses serve as entrepreneurs, researchers, policymakers, educators, scientists, and healthcare innovators. As a nurse scientist, her work focuses on developing evidence-based interventions that reduce health disparities and improve outcomes for underserved communities. Lesson: Nursing encompasses a broad range of leadership, research, and public health roles beyond traditional patient care. 3. Nurse Scientists Are Underrepresented Dr. Randolph revealed that less than one percent of nurse scientists are Black, highlighting the need for greater representation in healthcare research and academic leadership. Lesson: Diverse voices in science and research are essential for addressing health challenges that disproportionately affect underserved populations. 4. The HEAT Lab Uses Community Partnerships to Address Health Inequities The HEAT Lab brings together researchers, healthcare professionals, entrepreneurs, community advocates, business owners, and local organizations to address health disparities through collaboration. Rather than imposing solutions, the lab works directly with communities to develop culturally relevant interventions. Lesson: Meaningful change happens when communities are actively involved in creating solutions. 5. HIV Remains a Significant Public Health Challenge Dr. Randolph emphasized that HIV remains a major issue, particularly among Black women in the Southern United States. She noted that Black women account for a significant percentage of new HIV diagnoses and that prevention efforts must continue despite advances in treatment. Lesson: HIV is still a critical public health concern and requires continued education, prevention, and awareness. 6. Prevention Tools Exist but Are Underutilized A major focus of Dr. Randolph's work centers on increasing awareness and access to PrEP (Pre-Exposure Prophylaxis), a medication that significantly reduces the risk of HIV infection. She noted that many women do not realize PrEP is an option for them because healthcare providers often fail to discuss it and public messaging has historically focused on other populations. Lesson: Awareness and access are often just as important as medical innovation. 7. Health Disparities Are Influenced by Systemic Barriers The discussion explored how factors such as healthcare access, economic inequities, education, housing, food access, and systemic racism contribute to unequal health outcomes. Dr. Randolph stressed that health disparities are not solely the result of personal decisions but are shaped by broader systems and structural barriers. Lesson: Effective health solutions must address both individual behavior and systemic obstacles. 8. Medical Distrust Has Real Consequences Dr. Randolph explained that negative healthcare experiences often influence whether people seek treatment, trust providers, or engage in preventive care. Building trust is a crucial component of improving health outcomes in underserved communities. Lesson: Trust is a critical factor in healthcare engagement and adherence. 9. Community Leadership Is Essential The HEAT Lab works closely with barbers, beauty salons, community organizations, and local leaders to spread health information and reach people where they are. Dr. Randolph believes trusted community voices can often be more effective than traditional healthcare messaging. Lesson: Community-based outreach is an important tool for improving public health awareness. 10. Black Communities Must Become More Proactive About Health Throughout the conversation, both Dr. Randolph and McDonald stressed the need for greater community engagement, health advocacy, routine testing, education, and shared responsibility. Lesson: Improving health outcomes requires collective action and community empowerment. Notable Quotes Dr. Schenita Randolph on Nursing "Nursing is so much more than the bedside."

In this episode, we kick things off at the Texas border, where U.S. Customs and Border Protection officers uncovered a massive narcotics smuggling operation hiding in plain sight. On August eleventh at the Roma International Bridge, CBP officers directed a tractor-trailer arriving from Mexico to secondary inspection after it declared a routine commercial detergent shipment. Using nonintrusive inspection equipment and a canine team, authorities discovered over 1,000 pounds of suspected methamphetamine concealed within the detergent load, with a staggering street value exceeding $9.57 million. Port Director Andres Guerra credited advanced technology and frontline vigilance with identifying the contraband in what appeared to be routine freight. Next, we explore the intermodal sector, where RoadOne IntermodaLogistics is aggressively expanding its Port of Charleston footprint through strategic acquisition. The Randolph, Massachusetts-based provider announced it has acquired Higgins Transport Service, a Charleston-based drayage and intermodal provider, adding fifteen drivers and critical capacity to serve the Southeastern market. RoadOne recently opened a massive 384,000-square-foot facility in Summerville, South Carolina, and plans to add another 279,700-square-foot warehouse on the 100-acre property next year to support its growing Southeast global trade corridor operations. Finally, we break down major leadership upheaval rocking the trucking industry's most prominent trade organization as Chris Spear departs as president and CEO of the American Trucking Associations, effective immediately. Spear had recently observed his ten-year anniversary in the role and was just beginning an extension of his contract—a five-year deal signed in 2021 was extended in 2024 until 2029. ATA chairman Greg Hodgen said a search has begun to identify the organization's next leader, while assuring members that ATA remains strong, focused, and fully engaged in delivering results.

On today's show, host Dana Pellebon is in conversation with Meghan Randolph and Isabel Nesseim about the new production of Trevor: The Musical. Randolph is the executive director of Music Theatre of Madison and Nesseim is an undergraduate studying musical performance and the actress playing Diana Ross in Trevor.  Music Theatre of Madison (MTM) is celebrating 20 years with the production of Trevor at the Overture Center. Randolph says they caught the theatre bug at a young age before starting MTM at 23. While most community theatre work is unpaid, Randolph made sure that changed with MTM. MTM chose Trevor: The Musical for this season because they wanted to center youth, especially LGBTQ+ youth. The play was inspired by The Trevor Project, a suicide prevention and crisis response line for LGBTQ+ youth. The lead character Trevor loves Diana Ross, experiences bullying and comes to love themselves, saying “What if weird is only different? What if different isn't wrong?”  Featured image from Trevor: The Musical. Did you enjoy this story? Your funding makes great, local journalism like this possible.

ACF Church Sermon Podcasts

In this homily, delivered on August 2, 2026, Fr. Peter preaches on the reality that food is for communion. In today's world, there is a lot of discussion and debate surrounding food, and many people wrestle with how to feed themselves and their children. In addition, many people have a broken relationship with food because of stress-eating, concern about body image, and other such things. It can be so easy to be caught up in what or what not to eat, that we often do not consider why we eat. Food is for communion, both with God and with others. God did not have to make food, but chose to create food so that we could be united with Him and others through it. In both the Old and the New Testaments, God uses food to draw His People into communion with Himself, and the ultimate expression of this is in the Eucharist. Fr. Peter invites the congregation to approach daily meals as a way to enter into communion with God and others, allowing the grace before meals to be a practical reminder that we are about to enter into a time of communion. 

Columbia-based Boone Electric started in 1936 and was the first electric cooperative in Missouri. It was created during President Franklin D. Roosevelt's New Deal and was part of the REA project. Boone Electric president Todd Culley joined host Fred Parry in-studio Saturday morning on 939 the Eagle's "CEO Roundtable." While Boone Electric's biggest service area is in Boone County, it also serves five other mid-Missouri counties: Audrain, Callaway, Howard, Monroe and Randolph. Mr. Culley says Boone Electric has about 30,000 voting members and about 36,000 meters. He says Mother Nature and talent retention are two big challenges Boone Electric and other electric cooperatives are facing. “The things that it takes to actually build and maintain an electrical system. Significantly higher increases than what we would see in a standard inflation number or consumer pricing index number," Mr. Culley tells host Fred Parry. Mr. Culley also discussed their upcoming annual meeting in September:

This Day in Legal History: America's First PatentOn July 31, 1790, the United States issued its first patent under the newly enacted Patent Act of 1790. The patent was granted to Samuel Hopkins of Vermont for an improved method of producing potash and pearl ash, chemicals widely used in fertilizer, soapmaking, and glass production. President George Washington, Secretary of State Thomas Jefferson, and Attorney General Edmund Randolph personally signed the patent—a reminder that, in the nation's earliest years, the federal government itself directly evaluated patent applications.The Patent Act of 1790 was one of Congress's first major efforts to implement the Constitution. Article I, Section 8 authorizes Congress to “promote the progress of science and useful arts” by granting inventors exclusive rights to their discoveries for limited periods. Rather than viewing patents as natural rights, the Framers saw them as legal incentives designed to encourage innovation while ultimately benefiting the public.The original patent system was remarkably small. A board consisting of Jefferson, Randolph, and Secretary of War Henry Knox decided whether an invention was “sufficiently useful and important” to merit protection. As the country industrialized, that system quickly became overwhelmed, leading Congress to create a more formal Patent Office in 1836 with professional examiners and standardized procedures.The first patent issued on this day marked the beginning of what has become one of the world's most influential intellectual property systems. Today, the U.S. Patent and Trademark Office grants hundreds of thousands of patents each year, and patent law continues to shape industries ranging from pharmaceuticals and biotechnology to software and artificial intelligence.President Donald Trump is pressing Senate Republicans to confirm acting Attorney General Todd Blanche, whose nomination has stalled because of a dispute over a proposed $1.8 billion “anti-weaponization” fund. Republican Senators John Cornyn and Thom Tillis have withheld their support while demanding written assurances that the Justice Department will not establish the program. The fund emerged from a proposed settlement of Trump's $10 billion lawsuit accusing the Internal Revenue Service of improperly handling his tax records. Critics contend that the program could use taxpayer money to compensate Trump supporters who claim they were unfairly targeted by federal authorities, including people investigated or prosecuted in connection with the January 6 Capitol attack. Trump defended the proposal by arguing that victims of government misconduct deserve compensation and maintained that he would not personally benefit from it. Cornyn and Tillis have also objected to a separate provision that could shield Trump and certain associates from future IRS audits. Blanche reportedly met with the senators as the Justice Department attempted to resolve the disagreement. Even without confirmation, Blanche may be able to remain acting attorney general while his nomination is pending, provided that Trump does not formally withdraw it and the Senate does not reject it.Trump defends ‘anti-weaponization' fund as Blanche nomination stalls | ReutersNew York Attorney General Letitia James has sued prediction-market operator Kalshi, alleging that the company is offering illegal gambling without a state license. Kalshi allows customers to trade contracts tied to the outcomes of sporting events, elections, television programs, and other future events. New York argues that these transactions function as wagers because customers risk money on outcomes they cannot control. State officials also object to Kalshi allowing customers between the ages of 18 and 20 to participate, while New York generally requires mobile sports bettors to be at least 21. The lawsuit seeks to stop the allegedly unlawful activity, recover Kalshi's gains, impose civil penalties worth three times those gains, and obtain restitution for customers. James previously brought similar cases against prediction-market platforms operated by Coinbase and Gemini. Kalshi argues that its contracts are federally regulated derivatives under the exclusive authority of the Commodity Futures Trading Commission, rather than gambling products governed by individual states. The CFTC has supported that position and filed an emergency request seeking to prevent New York from enforcing its gambling laws against the company. Courts in several other states have already restricted Kalshi's operations, while a federal judge in New York recently declined to protect the company from state enforcement. The litigation could determine whether prediction markets must comply with state gambling laws, federal commodities regulation, or both.New York Says Kalshi's Prediction Markets Are Illegal GamblingFormer federal health official Anthony Fauci could face a contempt-of-Congress referral after refusing to answer more than 100 questions during a Senate investigation into the government's response to COVID-19. Senator Rand Paul, the Republican chair of the Senate Homeland Security and Governmental Affairs Committee, said the panel would consider referring Fauci for prosecution. Federal law makes it a crime for a person summoned by Congress to deliberately refuse to provide relevant testimony or requested documents. Congress cannot prosecute the offense itself, however, so a committee must approve a referral, followed by the full Senate or House, before the Justice Department decides whether to pursue charges. Reuters reported that a Senate referral would likely require 60 votes, meaning some Democratic support would be necessary. Prosecutors would then need to persuade a grand jury that Fauci intentionally refused to answer questions that fell within the committee's legitimate investigation. Fauci would likely argue that the Fifth Amendment allowed him to remain silent because his testimony could expose him to criminal liability. President Joe Biden previously pardoned Fauci for possible federal offenses committed between 2014 and January 2025, but that pardon does not cover conduct occurring after Biden left office. The pardon creates an unsettled legal issue because courts have not clearly decided whether a witness may invoke the Fifth Amendment regarding conduct already covered by a presidential pardon. Even if Congress approves a referral, the Justice Department and a Washington grand jury would still have separate opportunities to decline the case.Could Fauci face criminal charges for refusing Senate COVID questions? | Reuters This is a public episode.

What helps kids become confident, capable adults who thrive? According to today's guest, Dr. Randolph Schiffer, it's facing their fears in childhood, and he's just released a book to help them do that. “Bedtime Stories That Will Terrify Children” was born out of Dr. Schiffer's efforts to help his son face his leukemia journey as a child. Stories are a great way to help kids understand their fears and develop courage, says Dr. Schiffer. He believes many parents today try to shield their children from fear, anxiety and other negative emotions and that's doing their kids a disservice. Listen to Deb's conversation with Dr. Schiffer and find out why he thinks helping children face their fears benefits them, their parents, and society as a whole.Website: https://randolphbschiffer.comInstagram: @RandolphBSchifferLinkedIn: /RandolphBSchifferFacebook: RandolphBSchiffer

In this homily, delivered on July 19, 2026, Fr. Peter preaches on the gradual nature of our transformation in holiness. It can be easy to fall into discouragement because it seems like we keep committing the same sins or getting distracted during prayer. However, our transformation is gradual, just like the rising of bread is gradual. That is why the parable of the woman with the yeast can be a great source of encouragement. Since our transformation takes time, we never need to be discouraged, and we can dream big. We can continually open our heart to Jesus each time we fall and trust that, little by little, we will be transformed.

In this episode, Howard Farran sits down with Dr. Randolph Cross, a private practice endodontist in Watsonville, California, and the inventor of the EndoCator — a first-of-its-kind chairside ATP test that tells clinicians, in five seconds, whether a root canal is truly clean before they close it. Dr. Cross traces the idea back to a finals-week breakdown during his residency at USC, when he realized the profession had no reliable, real-time way to confirm disinfection. Drawing on his biochemistry background, he bought a cheap ATP tester off eBay, tried it on extracted teeth, and watched the readings drop from dirty to clean as he worked — the moment he knew he was onto something. Randy explains the science in plain terms: ATP is the energy molecule found in every living cell, and when it hits the enzyme luciferase, it emits light the device measures on a 1–100 scale. Because it detects ATP rather than culturing bacteria, it's more sensitive than traditional methods and picks up anaerobes and even fungi that cultures miss. He even demos it live, licking a test tube to show how a "clean-looking" sample still lights up as filthy. Along the way he shares the anecdote that crystallized it all — a case where a textbook-perfect obturation tested dirty while a squiggly-looking fill tested spotless — and how the patent office initially rejected the idea twice for being "too obvious." The conversation dives deep into practical disinfection: why full-strength sodium hypochlorite and contact time still matter most, his use of Triton on necrotic cases, the trade-offs of lasers, heated irrigants, and ultrasonic activation, and his "apical barbarian" approach to working to length. Dr. Cross frames the EndoCator as smaller, faster, and cheaper than the alternatives — roughly $1,800 for the unit and about $7 per test, versus six figures for a GentleWave — and stresses that patients deserve to know their infection is gone before the canal is sealed. Howard and Randy also cover one-visit versus two-visit endo, the overprescription of antibiotics, posts and the ferrule effect, intentional reimplantation, and the realities of practicing endo in rural America, closing with candid advice for any dentist sitting on an idea: go for it, prototype early, and pass the baton when it stops being fun. Episode #1713 : Dentistry Uncensored with Howard Farran, Howard sits down with Dr. Randolph Cross — private practice endodontist and inventor of the EndoCator, a 5-second chairside ATP test that finally answers the question most dentists never ask: is this root canal actually clean before I fill it? Born out of a finals-week epiphany in residency and a $20 tester bought off eBay, Randy's device gives real-time feedback on canal cleanliness — and the readings have humbled a lot of egos.

In this homily, delivered on July 12, 2026, Fr. Peter preaches on the way we can offer everything to Jesus in the Eucharist. He explains that Jesus is the seed that encounters the soil of our lives. If we open up to Jesus, we bear fruit, and our lives can be transformed in the Eucharist. He describes how this has been a living reality for him in a particular way over this past year as the Lord met him in his grief.

Fairlane Town Center is back in the headlines, and not for the right reasons. In this episode, Devon and I dig into the latest on Dearborn's struggling mall. From receivership and a possible sale to what its eventual "second life" could mean for desperately needed housing and better transit. It's our candid, locally grounded look at what happens when a once‑buzzy regional mall becomes a long‑term liability instead of an asset. Downtown, we're telling a very different story at Gratiot and Randolph. We walk through Detroit's new pedestrian plaza being billed as a "gateway to Greektown," and talk about how shifting the street, widening sidewalks, and new patios. We hope that a new and thoughtful streetscape can drive more retail and residential life into legacy blocks. To open, we head north — in spirit (and spirits) to Lexington.  Devon shares what's new in the "First Resort to the North," Detroit City Distillery's outpost inside Foley's Market, and Carlos Parisi's sandwich counter bringing some Eastern Market energy to vacationers.

Sonia Purnell describes the 1939 marriage proposal between Randolph Churchill and Pamela Digby, who met for the first time at a London dinner. Pamela, a 19-year-old aristocrat from an isolated, cash-strapped Dorset estate, accepted the unromantic proposal as a strategic means of escaping her stifling rural life for the city's intellectual and political circles. Raised in a household that favored male heirs and discouraged formal female education, Pamela possessed a keen mind and an early awareness of her power over older, influential men. Her time in Munich in 1937 exposed her to Hitler and the terrifying rise of the Nazi party. Despite a failed debutante season in 1938 where she was dismissed as a "plump" oddball, Pamela's marriage provided the entree into high society she desperately craved. The union was a calculated gamble to move from the periphery to the center of global events as war loomed. (1/8)1642 COMMONS

Following a hasty wedding, Pamela quickly discovered Randolph's abusive nature, heavy drinking, and philandering. Despite the failing marriage, she became a favorite of Winston and Clementine Churchill, who brought her into their "Padlock" inner circle while pushing their untrustworthy son away. Pamela's intelligence and charm impressed Harry Hopkins, President Roosevelt's envoy, who viewed her as the most well-informed person in Britain after the Prime Minister himself. Hopkins' meeting with Pamela significantly influenced his recommendation to Roosevelt that the United States must intervene to save the British people. Living through the intense 1940 Blitz while heavily pregnant, Pamela recorded the drama of wartime life under constant bombardment. She eventually gave birth to her son, Winston, during a massive air raid, demonstrating her resilience. This period marked her transformation into a vital, secret figure at the heart of the British war effort. (2/8)1650

Following the war, Pamela entered a transactional yet passionate relationship with Gianni Agnelli, the heir to the Fiatempire. Since Fiat had supplied the Axis powers, Agnelli required significant reputation rehabilitation to prevent Allied confiscation of the company. Pamela utilized the political skills she learned from Churchill to introduce Agnelli to world leaders, including JFK, effectively washing away his wartime associations and establishing him as a global statesman. In exchange, Agnelli provided her with a lavish lifestyle, including massive jewels and a Paris apartment. However, her personal life remained complicated; her relationship with her son, Winston, was notoriously difficult and lacked maternal warmth. Young Winston often felt neglected and eventually sided with his father, Randolph, which deeply hurt Pamela. While she remained close to Winston Churchill, her presence often sparked jealousy among his biological children, who struggled with her unprecedented access to their father. (4/8)1650 HOLLAND
