David Arquette to share ‘Scream' stories in Rapid City apart of his “Behind The Scream Tour” coming to the MonumentDavid Arquette will join fans for a 30th anniversary screening of “Scream” at 7 p.m. Oct. 14 in the Fine Arts Theatre at The Monument. The screening will be followed by a conversation and audience question-and-answer session with the actor, who played Dewey Riley in the film series.In an interview with Brandon Jones of Homeslice Media Group, Arquette said he looks forward to revisiting the 1996 film with an audience and sharing memories from the set, including stories about director Wes Craven.“There's a lot of laughter. There's a lot of fun,” Arquette said. “It's a really light, fun, exciting night.”Arquette said fans often remember details of the movie better than he does. Watching it again brings back memories, he said, while reminding him how much his life has changed since its release. He went on to play Dewey for 25 years, an opportunity he called unusual for an actor.The conversation also turned to Arquette's family, whose acting history stretches back to vaudeville. Arquette said he learned to find unscripted moments in his performances partly from watching his father's work in improvisation. He said he enjoys seeing a younger generation of the family begin acting, while recognizing the rejection that comes with auditions.“You just kind of have to keep hustling and keep doing, not let anything get you down,” he said.Listen to this full interview on Bounced from the Roadhouse Podcast available anywhere or by following the Rapid City post online Arquette said he has not visited the Rapid City area before and is eager to meet local fans.

Back again! South Dakota's normally sleepy Secretary of State race just blew wide open. Democratic candidate Terrence Davis joins the show after sitting Secretary of State Monae Johnson's headline-making endorsement sent shockwaves well beyond the state. Davis gets into the endorsement, his case for the office, the fight over hand-counting ballots, Heather Baxter's approach to elections, and why the nuts-and-bolts work of the Secretary of State matters far beyond Election Day. Plus, Garrett Van Lear from Formula Hardrocker Racing takes us inside South Dakota Mines' student-built race car program, carbon-fiber suspension, 70-mph machines, and the road to Michigan International Speedway.Then Jake and Murdoc hit the week's political fallout: Rapid City's growing defense industry and an $18 million investment tied to the region's aerospace future, Dusty Johnson's newly blunt criticism of Donald Trump, Kristi Noem's elk hunt somehow becoming national news, Toby Doeden keeping the Facebook content machine alive, and a possible Trish Ladner appearance after her trip to Taiwan. And of course, Murdoc prepares for the Buffalo Roundup by asking the question that apparently matters most: is there a bar?@DakotaTownHall@Jakeshoenbeck@MurdocJ Hosted on Acast.

Join Rob McConnell as he welcomes Maurice “Mo” Miller, Lead Investigator with Black Hills Paranormal Investigations (BHPI) in Rapid City, South Dakota. Mo's fascination with ghosts, spirits, and unexplained phenomena began at an early age, encouraged by his mother and grandmother. That childhood curiosity developed into a lifelong desire to investigate experiences that seem to fall outside conventional explanation. Today, he brings that curiosity—and a healthy degree of skepticism—to paranormal investigations throughout the historic Black Hills and surrounding regions. Founded in 2007, Black Hills Paranormal Investigations approaches reported hauntings with an emphasis on critical thinking, common sense, continuing education, and skepticism. Rather than entering a location assuming every unexplained noise or strange experience must be supernatural, Mo and his team first look for ordinary explanations. As Miller has explained publicly, something that goes bump in the night might have nothing whatsoever to do with a ghost—it could be plumbing, wildlife, environmental conditions, or something equally mundane. During this fascinating conversation, Rob and Mo explore ghosts, hauntings, EVPs, apparitions, spirit communication, paranormal equipment, and the realities of conducting an investigation. BHPI has investigated private residences as well as historic locations including the Adams House, Bullock Hotel, Homestake Opera House, Occidental Hotel, and other sites throughout the region. The team stresses professionalism and confidentiality when dealing with people who believe they may be experiencing paranormal activity in their homes or businesses. Whether you believe ghosts walk among us, think every haunting has a rational explanation, or simply love a great paranormal mystery, this episode of The ‘X' Zone Radio Show takes you inside the world of real-life paranormal investigation. Join Rob McConnell and Maurice “Mo” Miller as they journey into the haunted history of South Dakota's Black Hills and ask the question at the heart of every investigation: What actually happened here—and can we prove it?Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-x-zone-radio-tv-show--1078348/support.Please note that all CANCOM/XZBN radio and/or television shows are Copyright © REL-MAR McConnell Meda Company, Niagara, Ontario, Canada – www.rel-mar.com.

Bishop Book Club - August 2026 - The End of the Affair by Catholic Diocese of Rapid City, SD

Photo: St. Joe's Church, one of the main polling places in Nome. (Margaret Sutherland / KNOM) Several Alaska Native groups, including the Alaska Federation of Natives (AFN), say the constitutional rights of rural voters are in jeopardy. The organizations are sounding the alarm over staffing shortages at Alaska Division of Election offices and polling stations that serve rural Alaskans. As Rhonda McBride from our flagship station KNBA reports, these affect mostly Native communities In a statement Monday, AFN said it was deeply concerned by reports about election worker vacancies in rural precincts, as well as accounts from workers, who say they have waited for months to receive the per diem they were promised after they completed their required training. Kendra Kloster, AFN's director of government relations, pointed to the Division of Elections Region IV office in Nome, which did not open at the advertised time for the start of early voting. “When people are going in with their expectation to vote, they take time out of their day, they show up. And when the office isn't open when they say they are, I think that is a big deal.” Voting midday on August 18 at the Yupiit Picaryarait Cultural Center in Bethel. (Photo: Evan Erickson / KYUK) Kloster says the Nome incident is just the latest example of voter access problems that have persisted for years. AFN and other groups say some of these problems could have been avoided had Gov. Mike Dunleavy, R-Alaska, not vetoed Senate Bill 64. Dunleavy said he rejected the measure, because it needed more work and there was not enough time to put it in place before this year's election. Alaska state Sen. Bill Wielechowski, D-Anchorage, who is among the bill's backers, says that just is not true. He says the legislation not only passed with bipartisan support, but would have improved both voter access and election integrity statewide. Wielechowski says he is glad AFN and other groups are speaking out. “If you're making it impossible for people to vote, you're not opening polling places, then are you really granting them their constitutional right to vote? And I would say a court would probably say you're not.” AFN has sent a letter to the Division of Elections, calling on it to take immediate action on a long list of complaints. Stephen Kirch, a spokesman for the Elections Division, says the division has no comment on AFN's letter, although he did acknowledge that on election day, two rural precincts opened late. Oglala Sioux Tribe President Frank Star Comes Out addresses the media in Rapid City. (Photo: C.J. Keene / SDPB) South Dakota tribal leaders say promised services are falling short, especially in law enforcement. SDPB's C.J. Keene has more. South Dakota's tribal leaders met in Rapid City Wednesday to call for more support to reservation lands from federal and state partners, specifically consistent, mandatory funding of tribal police regardless of administration or status of the government. According to information from the Great Plains Tribal Chairmen's Association, funding is about one-quarter of tribal staffing needs and falls far short of the estimated $3.5 billion these entities need to properly maintain public safety standards seen off reservations. Oglala Sioux Tribe President Frank Star Comes Out says this is reflected in numbers from Pine Ridge. “The formula is 2.8 officers per 1,000 people. The Oglala Sioux Tribe has 54,000 membership, and 27 officers. What is wrong with that picture?” That sentiment was echoed by Chelaine Knudsen, chairwoman of the Yankton Sioux Tribe. She says little has changed since the last time this question was asked. “At the time in 2024 we only had three tribal police officers. Today, we have five tribal police officers, and we have two cadets, I believe, that are in training right now.” The Yankton Sioux Tribe has a population of 11,500 enrolled members. Vermillion, a college town with a similar population, reported 20 sworn officers in a phone call with SDPB. That total is about 1.7 officers per 1,000 people and it is before counting campus law enforcement found at the University of South Dakota. What this boils down to for tribes though, according to Star Comes Out, is serious need for more support. “Today I encourage tribal nations, not only from the Great Plains but nationwide – it's time to stand up. Stand up for your nation, voice for your people, come together and join us in the fight for our people.” The Tribal Chairman's Association estimates less than 13% of funding compared to the current identified need is met overall.

Kellie and Allen are back from South Dakota with stories from Kellie's first-ever trip to the Sturgis Motorcycle Rally—and she's already admitting she needs a do-over. They get into the biker fashion (yes, there are plenty of fishnets and hot pants), some unforgettable characters cruising through Deadwood, the history they discovered along the way, and finally checking Mount Rushmore off Kellie's bucket list. That naturally leads to a debate over who actually belongs on their personal Mount Rushmores—with Allen naming his four greatest Dallas Cowboys and Kellie attempting to narrow down the greatest movie stars of all time.Then comes Rantberry. What should have been a simple flight home turned into absolute chaos and we share that fun experience!

For nearly a century, the Hotel Alex Johnson has towered over downtown Rapid City, hosting presidents, Hollywood stars, and generations of travelers. But some guests apparently never checked out. Employees report phantom high heels crossing empty floors, elevators moving without passengers, and the apparition of the hotel's long-dead founder still watching over his lobby. Then there's Room 812—where a young bride plunged eight stories to her death and guests now claim something opens the windows, crawls into their beds, and wanders the hallway dressed in white. Tonight, we check into one of South Dakota's most enduring haunted landmarks and uncover the strange disappearance of the hotel's decades-long record of paranormal encounters.   YouTube - https://www.youtube.com/@HauntedAmericanHistory TikTok - @hah_podcast hauntedamericanhistory.com Patreon- ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://www.patreon.com/hauntedamericanhistory⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ HAH DISCORD - https://discord.com/invite/bJdbpH3hQm Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.

It's Monday, August 3, A.D. 2026. This is The Worldview in 5 Minutes heard on 140 radio stations and at www.TheWorldview.com.  I'm Adam McManus. (Adam@TheWorldview.com) By Adam McManus Equipping the Persecuted's warnings about endangered Nigerian Christians unheeded On July 1st, Equipping The Persecuted issued multiple terror alerts warning that Islamist Fulani Ethnic Militia were preparing coordinated attacks in Nigeria against Christian communities in the Plateau, Benue, and Southern Kaduna states. They publicly pleaded with the Nigerian government to protect these vulnerable villages before it was too late. Tragically, their warnings were ignored. In the three weeks since, more than 250 Christians have been murdered in the very communities they identified. The latest massacre took place on Saturday, August 1st in Naridon village in Southern Kaduna, where more than 30 Christians were slaughtered as terrorists attacked for hours. Once again, innocent families paid the price while help never came. Equipping The Persecuted is the only organization consistently issuing terror alerts to warn vulnerable Christian communities before attacks occur while also deploying immediate emergency aid when those attacks happen. While others document the tragedy, their teams are already on the ground paying hospital bills, delivering emergency food, caring for the wounded, and helping bury the dead. Based on the intelligence they are receiving,  Equipping The Persecuted believes this current wave of violence is only the beginning. If you want to help our brothers and sisters in Jesus Christ in Nigeria, go to www.EquippingThePersecuted.org/donate Senator Hawley to Dr. Fauci: “A million people dead. You're getting rich!” As The Worldview reported last Friday, the Senate Homeland Security and Governmental Affairs Committee questioned Dr. Anthony Fauci, the former director of the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases, about his culpability in a cover-up about the source of the COVID-19 virus and what happened subsequently.  Shockingly, Dr. Fauci invoked the Fifth Amendment 111 times, reported FoxNews. Republican Senator Josh Hawley of Missouri got righteously angry. HAWLEY: “Well, nothing says honesty like taking the Fifth, huh Doc? Let's try something. What day of the week is it today?” FAUCI: “On the advice of counsel, I respectfully decline to answer based upon my rights under the Fifth Amendment to the Constitution.” HAWLEY: “What color tie are you wearing?” FAUCI: “On the advice of counsel, I respectfully decline to answer based upon my rights under the Fifth Amendment to the Constitution.” HAWLEY:  “Let's just get one thing straight. You don't have any rights under the Fifth Amendment because you've been pardoned, as you very well know, as the Supreme Court has been clear for a century and more. Brown vs Walker, 1896: ‘When he has been pardoned, he may not stand upon his privilege.' “You know that. Your lawyers sitting behind you, now shifting nervously in their chairs, they know it. This isn't about the Constitution. This isn't about the law. This is about contempt -- contempt for this body and contempt for the American people. “But I think I know why you're doing it. It's because you don't want to answer questions. It's because you did all kinds of terrible things. It's because during the pandemic you got rich. I mean, your net worth now is north of $12 million! “You got over a million dollars in cash awards during COVID, during a 24-month span during COVID. A million bucks you knocked down in cash money using federal resources. Now you're worth more than $12 million. You've got a pension that, in its first year, paid out north of $400,000 a year. “A million people dead. You're getting rich! A million people dead. You're using federal employees to get cash awards for you. A million people dead, and you're here taking the Fifth because you don't want to admit that what really happened in all that time was a multi-month, multi-year course of self-dealing. Isn't that true, Dr. Fauci?” FAUCI: “On the advice of counsel, I respectfully decline to answer, based upon my rights under the Fifth Amendment to the Constitution.” HAWLEY: “Yeah, well, silence is admission. And here's the real thing. At the end of the day, it wasn't just about the money, really. Was it? It was really about a power trip. I mean, through all of this, you wanted to be the most famous scientist in the world. You were so focused on getting every award and every drop of cash that you could, all because you wanted to be on TV. “You wanted to be the ‘sun god' of science. You wanted to be the guy who was in charge of it all. You wanted to lambast Trump. You wanted to make sure that nobody else stole your spotlight. You wanted to be ‘the guy.' “You had time to sit for InStyle magazine. Here's what you were doing with your time. You could sit for InStyle Magazine, but you can't answer questions for the American people. You could sit for InStyle Magazine, but you're here taking the Fifth. You could sit for InStyle Magazine and get a million bucks in cash awards, but now the cat's got your tongue. I bet he does. I tell you what. “Here's my conclusion from all of this. This was really all about you the whole time. Somewhere along the way, you lost your way. You may have been a good public servant at one time. I don't know, but I can tell you from reading your emails now, from looking at what you did, how you used your employees. Somewhere along the line, it became all about you. “You became a narcissist and a megalomaniac and a liar. You've lied to the American people, and you've lied to this body, and you've disgraced your profession by doing it. You called yourself ‘the most famous scientist in the world.' You've done more to harm science than anybody in my lifetime, and I hope you'll go home and write that in your diary.” Romans 14:12 says, “So then, each of us will give an account of ourselves to God.” By the way, check out a fascinating 17-minute video in which Scott Rouse, a behavior and body language expert, analyzes how he can tell Dr. Fauci was feeling tremendous stress during Senator Hawley's line of questioning. You can find it in our transcript today at www.TheWorldview.com. When can someone plead the Fifth? The Pour Over media outlet addressed when someone can plead the Fifth Amendment.  Any time a statement is compelled and might incriminate you.  If someone is asked to testify or hand over evidence that could get them prosecuted, they can plead the Fifth. Is there anything that can override someone's Fifth Amendment right? Yes: immunity or a pardon which Dr. Fauci had from President Joe Biden.  Pardoned people are exempt from prosecution, meaning they cannot incriminate themselves, and therefore should be allowed to invoke the Fifth Amendment. Leftist TV Host SHOCKED about our God-given rights Back on July 5, 2025, House Speaker Mike Johnson of Louisiana, an Evangelical, affirmed that our rights come from God, not government, something he has affirmed many times since then. JOHNSON: “We are so blessed. We should not take it for granted. We hold these truths to be self-evident: that all men are created equal. It does not say born equal. It says created equal. “It is our Creator that gives us our rights. We are the first nation in the history of the world that acknowledged that our rights do not derive from government. They come from God Himself. (cheers) Those words up there, that motto, it says, "In God we trust” right above the speaker's rostrum. “Congress voted to put that there as a rebuke to the Soviets' worldview at the height of the Cold War. Why? Because communism, socialism find their root in Marxism, and Marxism begins with the belief that there is no God. It's wrong, and this Congress made a stand those many years ago, and we should do it again. “We're different. We're distinct. We're exceptional because we acknowledge that right there.” On July 27th, 2026, Speaker Johnson's affirmation that our rights come from God got under the skin of leftist TV host Katy Tur on MS NOW, formerly called MSNBC,  She moderated a panel in which she questioned the legitimacy of that claim.   Listen. TUR: “What about this passage from Mike Johnson declaring that ‘our rights do not derive from government, they come from You, our Creator and Heavenly Father.' Is this him putting God over the Declaration of Independence?” Needless to say, the most famous line of the Declaration of Independence says, “We hold these truths to be self-evident that all men are created equal, that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable Rights, that among these are Life, Liberty, and the pursuit of Happiness.” Jarrett Stepman of The Daily Signal rightly points out that “the concept that God is ‘above' the Declaration of Independence is in the Declaration of Independence. God's law supersedes man's law. Governments that deprive citizens of rights endowed by their Creator, without due process, are bad governments and are possibly illegitimate.” One of Katy Tur's guests on the leftist MS NOW network, Atlantic writer McKay Coppins, weighed in. He noted that her audience may not be familiar with the concept of God-given rights. COPPINS: “That idea is not wholly uncommon. I mean the idea that we have unalienable rights that come from God can be read in a fairly benign way -- which is basically that we have innate human rights, that our Constitution and our democratic government, are meant to codify. “The thing that might alarm some people is some of the rhetoric that we heard at this rally that we are in a spiritual battle, that the forces of good and evil are at work here, and that partisan politics is injected directly into the spiritual, Biblical rhetoric. “We have heard that for the last couple of years. It's been ratcheted up more and more, especially since Donald Trump lost in 2020. It can lead to some pretty dangerous places.” Lesbian co-owner of Seattle WNBA team fined for confrontation w/Christian teens As The Worldview reported on July 27th,  29-year-old Sophie Cunningham, an outspoken Christian WNBA player on the Indiana Fever team, has publicly opposed biological males competing in female sports and coming into female bathrooms and locker rooms. During the July 28th game against the Seattle Storm, two teenage girls, wearing XX-XY Athletics t-shirts, held a sign which read, “Thank you Sophie for speaking up for girls,” reports The Christian Post. Those shirts and the sign got under the skin of Celeste Keaton, a lesbian co-owner of the Seattle Storm who is faux married to co-owner Lisa Brummel.  Romans 1:24 and 26 says, “Therefore, God gave them over in the sinful desires of their hearts to sexual impurity for the degrading of their bodies with one another. ... God gave them over to shameful lusts. Even their women exchanged natural sexual relations for unnatural ones.” Not only did Keaton use foul language, calling the teen girls “insane,” but Keaton also claimed that somehow Jesus needed to forgive the Christian girls for affirming God's design of men and women. In an interview with Brandi Kruse, who organized an event affirming Cunningham outside the arena, one of the teen girls explained what happened. TEENAGE GIRL: “We were just sitting there with our signs that said, ‘We love Sophie. Thank you, Sophie, for speaking up.' Watching the game, being super respectful. We're just holding our signs and cheering for both teams. “And this lady, older lady, comes up to us. ‘Oh, I hope Jesus can forgive you for what sin you've done.'” Kruse interjected that she noticed the girl was crying. The girl agreed and said this. TEENAGE GIRL:  “I've never been yelled at like that. I mean, I've had people hate on me on the internet, but that just took me by surprise because I thought she was gonna be nice. And then she started screaming at us. It's disappointing though too, because she's also a woman, and she just cussed out two 16-year-olds that were just trying to have fun. We're just trying to support Sophie.” Sophie Cunningham complimented the teens and blasted the Seattle Storm lesbian co-owner. Thankfully, the WNBA fined Keaton an undisclosed amount and suspended her from attending the Storm's next five home games, reports Fox13. In response, the Storm organization said, "We respect the league's decision to fine and suspend co-owner Celeste Keaton. We remain committed to creating a welcoming and respectful environment for anyone who attends a Storm game." In an X post, Sophie Cunningham wrote, “Bravo to those girls for standing up for what they believe.” She added that she was embarrassed about Seattle Storm co-owner Celeste Keaton's actions, saying, ”Shows the type of leader she is.” Three homeschool moms from Missouri, Colorado & Ontario weigh in Here at The Worldview, Nicki Jones in Carthage, Missouri said, “As a homeschool mom of four boys -- Adam (15), Elijah (13), Uriah (11), and Isaac (8), we enjoy listening to the newscast nearly every morning at the breakfast table as we do our Bible time and worldview discussions. Thank you for your faithfulness in this ministry!” Cherise in Bennett, Colorado wrote and said, “Adam, I just made a $102 donation from my children -- Dawson (14), Caidence (13), and Carmia (10). They tithe 10% to our church from cleaning houses, doing yard work, and babysitting. On top of that, they have another 10% for ‘blessings' and they chose to donate it to The Worldview. We hope it blesses you and the many, many people who listen to your newscast! Thank you for putting it out every weekday!” And Liz Williams in Ontario, Canada said, “Adam, I'm a homeschooling mom of two, with just one-year experience in homeschooling. I quit my full-time job to homeschool my 12 and 15-year-old. I'm very thankful for the work and the quality of work that The Worldview in 5 Minutes is doing. My kids and I listen to it during car rides or meals and love it. “I think one of the reasons we stick around, besides all the other good reasons, is your voice. I know you are a professional radio host. Your voice just made us feel like we are listening to a large radio station's production. I also deeply appreciate the news from a Christian worldview.” 43 Worldview listeners gave $15,409.17 And finally, by Saturday night at 6:15pm Central, 42 Worldview listeners stepped up to the plate and invested their treasure to fund the 6-member team behind The Worldview for another year.

Would you prayerfully consider being one of 27 friends to give a one-time gift of $500 or a monthly pledge of $41.67 for 12 months? Or could you be one of 14 friends to give a one-time gift of $1,000 or a monthly pledge of $83.34? To put your potential donation into perspective, think about how much you spend on your monthly cable bill or your monthly  phone bill or eating out at restaurant.  When you think about it that way, finding 27 friends to pledge $41.67 a month or 14 friends to pledge $83.34 a month seems pretty doable!

Today from SDPB - Rapid City was the target of a cybersecurity attack which was the second in the area within the last month, police are investigating a homicide in Sioux Falls and more.

In June 1994, two closely connected deaths occurred in Rapid City, South Dakota. The disappearance of Tina Marcotte and the mysterious death of Tom Kueter fueled decades of speculation before advances in DNA evidence finally led investigators to officially close the case. Join Mike and Morf as they discuss the disappearance of Tina Marcotte and the death of Tom Kueter. Tina disappeared after getting a ride after work when she found one of her tires had been slashed. She told a friend it was someone she used to work with named Tom. Investigators are sure they know what happened in these cases but there are still some unanswered questions.   You can help support the show through Patreon.
