Afraid of AI? We share how to start small and take control using AI fear-free. Also: bear attacks in Missouri and British Columbia raise outdoor safety concerns, and women bronc riders are defying rodeo stereotypes. Join radio hosts Rebecca Wanner aka ‘BEC' and Jeff ‘Tigger' Erhardt (Tigger & BEC) with the latest in Outdoors & Western Lifestyle News! Real Fear, Real Change: Why It's Time to Embrace AI, Respect Wildlife, and Cheer on Women in Rodeo Don't Fear the Future: How to Start Using AI in Everyday Life Without Feeling Overwhelmed Curious about AI but a little nervous to try it? Learn how to start using AI fear-free with beginner-friendly tools, simple tasks like meal planning, and trusted platforms to get you started. Artificial Intelligence (AI) isn't just for tech experts, coders, or Silicon Valley. In fact, AI is already helping everyday people solve everyday problems—and you can start using it right now, even if you're a complete beginner. If you've been feeling hesitant or even afraid of AI, you're not alone. But the truth is, learning how to use AI doesn't have to be intimidating. With the right mindset and a few simple tools, you can start making your life easier today. Why Are People Afraid of AI? Many people fear AI because of myths and misunderstandings—like the idea that it's going to take over jobs or turn into science fiction-level robots. In reality, AI is more like a helpful assistant. Think of it as a calculator for your brain—only smarter, faster, and more versatile. The key is learning how to work with AI, not against it. Beginner-Friendly AI Use: Meal Planning & Fridge Rescue Let's start with something simple and familiar: food. AI can take the stress out of cooking and shopping with easy tools that help you: 1. Plan Your Weekly Meals Instead of scrolling endlessly for recipe ideas, you can ask AI to: Create a weekly dinner plan based on your dietary needs (gluten-free, keto, vegetarian, etc.) Generate a shopping list based on your meal plan Suggest quick recipes for busy nights Try This Prompt: "Can you create a 5-day dinner meal plan for two adults, under $75, that includes leftovers for lunch?" 2. Use What's in the Fridge Don't throw away food just because you don't know what to do with it. AI can suggest creative, safe, and delicious ways to use ingredients before they expire. Try This Prompt: "I have eggs, wilting spinach, a half-used onion, and some shredded cheese. What can I cook tonight?" You'll be surprised how helpful and creative AI can be! Tips & Tricks to Start Using AI Fear-Free Here's how to dip your toes into the AI pool without diving headfirst: 1. Start With Low-Risk, Everyday Tasks AI is great for: Making grocery lists Writing polite emails Summarizing long articles Brainstorming gift ideas Budget planning The more you use it for small tasks, the more confident you'll feel. 2. Use Clear, Friendly Prompts Don't overthink it—talk to AI like a helpful assistant or a friend. Instead of: "Build me a machine learning model to predict market trends" Try: "Can you explain what inflation is in simple terms?" Safe AI Tools & Websites for Beginners Tool What It Does Why It's Good for Beginners ChatGPT (OpenAI) Answers questions, helps plan, write, learn Very conversational and user-friendly Google Gemini  Similar to ChatGPT, connected to live web Great for real-time info   Pro Tip: Always double-check anything AI gives you—especially when it comes to food safety, finances, or health. Think of AI like a smartphone app: it's here to make your life easier, not harder. Starting small—with simple things like meal planning or organizing your week—can build your confidence and save you time. You don't need to become an AI expert overnight. You just need curiosity, a willingness to try, and a safe place to start.   Tragedy in the Ozarks: Bear Attack Confirmed Authorities have confirmed that a black bear was responsible for the tragic death of a camper in Newton County, Arkansas. 60-year-old Max Thomas of Springfield, Missouri, was camping alone at Sam's Throne Campground in the Ozark National Forest late last week. Thomas had been sleeping on an open-air cot—completely exposed—when he was attacked overnight. Family members grew concerned after not hearing from him for several days. Before communication stopped, Thomas had sent them a photo of a black bear lurking near his campsite. The Arkansas Game and Fish Commission initially suspected a bear due to the nature of his injuries and signs at the scene. Now, it's confirmed. Using Thomas's photo and trail cameras set up after the incident, officials tracked down and euthanized the bear believed to be responsible. It's a rare and tragic reminder of the risks of camping in bear country—especially without proper protection. This marks the 2nd Missouri fatal bear attack in a month after 25 years without any.

Wilderness According to Outdoor Life, an elk hunter in southeastern British Columbia is lucky to be alive after a serious encounter with a grizzly bear near Fort Steele last Thursday. Authorities say the man, whose name hasn't been released, was critically injured after a sow grizzly—believed to be protecting her cubs—attacked him. The hunter had been using elk calls, which officials believe may have unintentionally drawn the bear family to his location. The man reportedly got off one shot during the attack, but it's unclear if the bear was hit. Due to the severity of his injuries, officials haven't been able to speak with him yet. He was airlifted to Kelowna General Hospital, where he is now listed in stable condition. Conservation officers used thermal drones and helicopters to search the area but found no sign of the bear afterward. The investigation is ongoing, with help from predator attack specialists and the Royal Canadian Mounted Police. The town of Fort Steele lies approximately 60 miles north of the Canadian border, and not far from the town of Whitefish and nearby Glacier National Park in northwest Montana. Officials say elk season is currently in full swing in the region—reminding hunters and outdoor enthusiasts to stay alert in grizzly country.

Riders like Tup Forge, who flew in from Australia and won gold at Cheyenne Frontier Days on just three hours of sleep, are proving that this sport isn't just for the boys. It's been less than a decade since women were welcomed back into rough stock competitions after nearly 90 years of exclusion, originally sparked by a tragic accident in 1929. But these modern cowgirls aren't just here for show — they're serious athletes competing in one of the most dangerous events out there. They ride what they rope in — using ranch saddles instead of the typical rodeo gear — and often spend more than they win. Yet despite the bruises and empty pockets, they keep showing up. Why? Because they love it. So next time you see a woman riding high on a bucking bronc, remember: she's not just breaking barriers — she's making history. Ring in 2026 in true Western style at Leather & Lace: A New Year's Rodeo & Party! Watford City, North Dakota will come alive on New Year's Eve with a one-of-a-kind celebration featuring grit, glamour and good times!

To say the area is beautiful is an understatement! There was not a bad view anywhere.    The landscape of "Red Rocks" peaked out from an unusual surprise for me as they were tucked in a forest! Of course there were still prickly pear cactus everywhere, it was refreshing to see so many juniper cousin trees! We rented our first tiny home at the Pines Resort outside of west Sedona and love it! These little homes offered all the amenities of home! Between the miles and miles of hikes to such places as the 7 Sacred Pools to then continuing up the mountain to caves in which we of course explored to then hiking to Devils Bridge.... To say the least, the trip was amazing on all levels!!   The cover photo for this episode is us sitting atop Devils Bridge, a hike few have the chance to take and do recommend!  Photo L to R: Mardee Reich, Kaydee Reich, Rebecca 'BEC' Wanner, Destinee Jensen   Remember: Take The Time, Make The Memories!!!   OUTDOORS FIELD REPORTS & COMMENTS We want to hear from you!

Though we were outnumbered, we stood fearlessly in the face of the oddest band of mercenaries I've ever seen. ------ Content Warning: Language, Fantasy Violence ------ You can support The Critshow through our⁠ Patreon⁠ to get more weekly TTRPG Actual Play content, access to our discord community, and much more!

It's Spooky Season—prime time for a wall-to-wall Halloween horror binge. This full audio compilation from the Weekly Spooky horror podcast packs 9 scary stories of monsters, urban legends, ghostly vengeance, and October-night mayhem. Hit play for a cinematic mix of pumpkin curses, headless riders, haunted towns, and parties from hell—perfect for late-night listening, trick-or-treat routes, or fall drives.What's inside (in order):Mischief Night: The Halloween Invasion — Shane Migliavacca: A touring punk band limps into a silent town on Halloween…where the “locals” aren't human anymore. Survival horror across a diner, alleys, and rooftops before the bridge out.Dullahan — Morgan Moore: A new kid—eerily resembling a condemned witch-trial figure—finds himself hunted on a moonlit path by a headless rider bent on collecting. Creepy folklore turned chase-night terror.Origin of the Pumpkin Man — Charles Campbell: Middle-school hijinks at the Jack-O-Lantern Jubilee escalate from pranks to explosions…and seed the birth of a grim valley legend. 80s Halloween vibes with a sharp fuse.The Grinner — Henrique Couto: A Halloween-obsessed kid, a coveted VHS, and a scarecrow with a warped smile guarding a candy bowl at a decaying hall. Greed, dares, and a grin you can't forget.Ghost in the Graveyard — Rob Fields: Strickfield extends trick-or-treating to a full week; three friends push to midnight and stir up unfinished business from a summer of horrors. Small-town tradition meets the supernatural.Tricks and Treats — Keith Tomlin: Jack Scratch—an infernal “talent scout”—walks a Midwestern Halloween to sample blood, death, and pain. Interlinked vignettes of wicked people getting the justice they deserve.The Night Stocker — Shane Migliavacca: First night on the job, Halloween shift, “special shipment” in the back, and wolves circling in the parking lot. A grocery aisle turns slasher-stage after hours.Strife of the Party — David O'Hanlon: Glitzy corporate Halloween gala, FX-artist costume flexing, billionaires behaving badly—then the masks come off and the body count climbs. A savage social-horror romp.Burn on the Bayou — L.F. Falconer: A famed Halloween host stages his most ambitious haunted soirée at a ruined manor—while a lover's plot to “solve” a marriage collides with real ghosts and older fires. Gothic, lush, and lethal.Curl up with a pumpkin spice (or something stronger), turn the lights down, and let October do what October does.

Today, we remember and celebrate the extraordinary life of Jilly Cooper, who has sadly passed away at the age of 88. A literary icon, Jilly captured hearts and imaginations with her wit, warmth, and unmistakable voice. Her novels, especially beloved titles like Riders and Rivals, sold over 11 million copies in the UK alone and most recently inspired the hit Disney+ adaptation that introduced her work to a whole new generation. I had the immense privilege of speaking with Jilly just last October. She was everything I'd hoped she would be - funny, sharp, generous and inspiring. Today, in tribute to her legacy and the joy she brought to so many, I'm honoured to share the conversation with you again. ___________________________________________________________________ Dame Jilly Cooper. What a legend. For the uninitiated (where have you been?) she's a journalist and author most famous for her bestselling Rutshire Chronicle series which includes Riders, Polo and Rivals - the latter of which has now made into a hugely popular TV series starring David Tennant, Danny Dyer and Katherine Parkinson. In the past, Dame Jilly's books have been unfairly dismissed as mere ‘bonkbusters', charting the sex lives of the upper classes. But, as I discover, there's much more to both her writing - and to her. We talk about her failures with technology, why she wishes she could throw more things away, as well as the terrifying time she lost an entire manuscript on the number 28 bus and had to rewrite it. Plus her experiences of interviewing Margaret Thatcher, her friendship with the Queen, her obsession with beautiful people and ‘macho men' - and why she'd wholeheartedly recommend adoption to others. Thank you Dame Jilly. A total sport (but we knew that). ✨ IN THIS EPISODE: 00:00 Remembering Dame Gili Cooper 03:43 Personal Reflections and Literary Success 07:37 Exploring Themes of Masculinity and Beauty 10:15 Family, Loss, and Resilience 11:28 Failures and Fertility Challenges 21:18 Dieting and Body Image 25:12 Interviewing Margaret Thatcher 26:46 Technical Challenges and Writing Process 30:27 Friendship and Social Media

While economic development in Georgia is steady, the state's economy is facing several crossroads. Economic uncertainty, instability in the job market, and severe immigration policies—plus the high cost of tariffs on consumers, small businesses and the agriculture industry have altered Georgia’s economic landscape. “Closer Look” host Rose Scott spoke to Chris Clark, the president and CEO of the Georgia Chamber of Commerce. Clark discussed the state’s economy, the need for Democrats and Republicans to work together amid the federal government shutdown, as well as the Chamber’s ongoing push to reform the visa process for international workers. Plus, Propel ATL has released its “Voices from the Bus: MARTA Riders Speak Out” report. The bilingual survey aimed to capture the day-to-day experiences of riders on MARTA’s buses. It explored MARTA buses’ service frequency, reliability, accessibility, and equity.

Practical step-by-step ways to return to riding safely. The role of visualization and imagination in regaining confidence.

What happens when an immovable object meets an unstoppable force? And then both of those things meet Gimli? It's a question that the philosophers have debated for ages, and it was a question that was settled by JRR Tolkien in the chapter The Riders of Rohan, when Eomer meets Aragorn, and then Gimli steps in after something ticks him off.

The Riders of Rohan chapter of The Two Towers is one of the most tense chapters of literature that I have read in a long time. I'm a movie fan, so I know Merry and Pippen are alive, but if you were reading this with no knowledge of the movies or the fate or Merry and Pippen I don't know if I've ever read a chapter that plays with your emotions more than this one.

The All Local Afternoon Update for Tuesday, September 30th 2025

Horse riders in the lower North Island have raised concerns over safe road access. A shared path along the Ōtaki to North of Levin Expressway - a project currently under construction - prompted concern after horse riders were excluded from the path. NZ Equestrian Advocacy Network chairperson Shelly Warwick says the group's lodged a complaint with the Human Rights Commission, citing concerns over equity. "There are alternatives for every other user if you want to take them, but they've made a shared-use path to cater for vulnerable road users to get across this community, but excluded horse riders."

We have an excerpt from our recent Future of SD-WAN session and how Check Point products protect against BRICKSTORM.

The Vuelta is over and the world champs is well underway, which means we're nearly at the end of the 2025 racing season! It's really crept up on me, I can't believe it! On one hand, it feels like it's flown by, but on the other - the Spring Classics feel like forever ago.    This month's communique focuses on the World Champs over in Rwanda. It is an absolutely brutal course this year; almost 270kms with over 5000m of climbing. Whoever wins this is going to be a thoroughly deserving winner. Remco's already got himself a rainbow jersey in the TT; can he double up with another road race title?    What about Pog? He looked pretty knackered in the TT at the world champs, didn't he? Still cooked from the Tour or just reaching the end of his rope? I can't quite believe I'm saying this, but there's a big question mark over him ahead of the road race! But just watch him make me look like a cock knob and win by 9 minutes solo now.    There's some strong looking underdogs in the mix too; Del Toro, Healy, Carapaz, McNulty, Pidcock, and loads of other in form hitters that could spring a surprise and overcome the two main favourites. We discuss all the favourites as well as make our predictions.    In this month's PeloChat, Turbo Durbo gives us some insight into the end of a pros season - limping or striving through the last few races. Usually, a rider gets their provisional calendar at the start of the year, and it runs through to the Vuelta. After that, it's a case of “we'll see”. There's still races to go, but so many riders are sick, injured, or just cooked - so pulling together a decent squad to knock out the last few races of the year becomes a tricky task. Riders have to be adaptable throughout the whole season.    Southam's talking tactics dives into UAE's record breaking season - the most wins in 1 season by any team ever. How have they managed this? How does the team manage so many world class riders? How have they won so much but still lost the Giro on the last day, and seemingly piss the Vuelta away by hunting stages? Tom shares his take on UAE's questionable tactics at points throughout the year that still haven't stopped them winning almost everything.    The quiz this month is all about the world's TT. I'm quiz master, and the boys go head to head. Brace yourselves, I'm thinking next month's season finale is going to be a bumper CommuniQuiz edition.    Guys, I hope you like listening to this month's communique as much as I love recording it. Sitting down and spinning a yarn about bike racing with some mates - does it get any better?   Cheers Mitch   The Race Communiqué is brought to you by TrainingPeaks! Track, plan, and train smarter - just like the pros. Get 20% off TrainingPeaks Premium now at trainingpeaks.com/litp I'll be heading to Adelaide this January for the Santos Tour Down Under - chasing the racing, riding the bunches in the morning, and soaking up all the summer vibes the city has to offer.
