A Tale of Two Carolinas: Ice Inland, Warm Air at the Coast. Join the Carolina Weather Group for a special Saturday evening live update as a major winter storm moves across North and South Carolina. Host Sam Walker, along with James Brierton in Charlotte and Frank Strait in Columbia, break down the incoming freezing rain, sleet, and massive temperature divides impacting the region on Saturday, January 24, 2026.While the storm has slowed down due to a very dry air mass, a "big blob of junk" is moving in, bringing dangerous ice to the Piedmont and Upstate, and spring-like warmth to the Lowcountry.❄️ Key Takeaways from Tonight's Update:The Delay Explained: The storm is moving slower than anticipated because a very dry air mass is evaporating the precipitation before it hits the ground, but dangerous ice is still on the way for the overnight hours.Major Ice Threat: Areas along the I-85 corridor, Upstate SC, and the NC Triad/Piedmont could see a quarter to half-inch of ice accumulation.Power Outages Looming: Anything above a quarter inch of ice will cause trees and power lines to come down. Duke Energy and out-of-town contractor crews are already staged and ready to respond.Extreme Temperature Divide: We are looking at a 30-to-40-degree temperature difference across the states! Coastal areas like Charleston and the Outer Banks could see highs in the 60s and 70s with a risk of severe thunderstorms, while inland areas remain trapped in the 20s and 30s.Monday Impacts: Travel will remain hazardous. School districts, like Rock Hill, are already moving to e-learning for Monday.

A nostalgic Mexican food story spirals into gravity conspiracies, rogue elephants, and one of the most unexpected Chester Bennington memories ever shared on the show.On today's episode of The Rizzuto Show, what begins as harmless food talk—sushi boats, cupcakes, and the emotional closure of a longtime St. Louis Mexican restaurant—takes a legendary turn when Moon casually drops a story involving Chester Bennington and a wet chimichanga. From there, the rails are fully gone. Not loosened. Gone.This daily podcast does what it does best: take one real memory and pile on layer after layer of chaos. The crew mourns the loss of local institutions, debates why urgent care centers are multiplying like gremlins, and somehow finds themselves planning for a viral conspiracy theory claiming Earth will lose gravity for seven seconds in August. Helmets are discussed. Field broadcasting is considered. Matching outfits may be required.Things escalate further when the conversation shifts to a genuinely terrifying story about a rogue elephant on a multi-day rampage overseas, leading to the important realization that elephants are apparently both fast and sneaky—which feels unfair. Add in extreme cold weather prep, heartfelt reminders to check on elderly neighbors, and wildly inappropriate jokes about inheritance, and you've got the emotional range only The Rizzuto Show can pull off.As always, the gang balances the absurd with the oddly thoughtful. One minute it's doom-and-gloom apocalypse talk, the next it's a sincere discussion about community, local history, and why food memories hit harder than they should. Sprinkle in celebrity chaos, pop culture commentary, music debates, and self-roasting tangents, and this daily podcast becomes exactly what listeners expect: unpredictable, hilarious, and just structured enough to keep the FCC calm.If you're looking for a daily podcast that doesn't pretend to have all the answers—but is very confident while being wrong—this episode is for you. Come for the Chester Bennington wet chimichanga story.

In this episode, Breht is joined by philosopher, author, and cultural critic Gabriel Rockhill to discuss his new book Who Paid the Pipers of Western Marxism? The Intellectual World War: Marxism vs. the Imperial Theory Industry. Rockhill argues that the Cold War was not only fought with bombs, coups, and sanctions -- but with ideas, institutions and intellectuals. Drawing on extensive archival research, Rockhill shows how U.S. imperial power built a vast apparatus of foundations, universities, media outlets and cultural organizations to shape what kinds of Marxism were allowed to exist in the West. Rather than simply repressing Marxism, empire promoted a "compatible left"; a version of critical theory and Western Marxism that rejected actually existing socialist struggles and experiments, detached theory from mass struggle, and helped neutralize anti-imperialist politics. Together, they explore the role of the Frankfurt School, Herbert Marcuse, Cold War cultural warfare, and the long shadow this history still casts over today's left. This episode was recorded in the immediate wake of the U.S.'s invasion of Venezuela and kidnapping of President Maduro and his wife, which they discuss at the beginning of the conversation.  Check out Critical Theory Workshop HERE Follow Rockhill's work on his Substack HERE ---------------------------------------------------- Support Rev Left and get access to bonus episodes: www.patreon.com/revleftradio Make a one-time donation to Rev Left at BuyMeACoffee.com/revleftradio Follow, Subscribe, & Learn more about Rev Left Radio https://revleftradio.com/

How have we been mislead by the "compatible left" -- a cohort of leftists that support marxism only in theory while inveighing against actually existing socialism? Where do Slavoj Zizek & Noam Chomsky fall in this analysis? How do we identify the contemporary "compatible left" in our media and political environment, and if the deep state is so effective at coopting left movements, what can we possibly do to evade them and achieve revolutionary change?

When you talk about basketball icons who changed the game, Coach Semeka Randall Lay belongs in that conversation. From her Cleveland roots to the bright lights of Knoxville, and now leading the charge at Winthrop University, her story is one of grit, greatness, and growth.In this episode of SportsLifeTalk's You Got Next, hosts Head Coach KT and B Jones sit down with “Hard to Handle Randall” — one of the fiercest competitors ever to wear the orange and white — to unpack her journey from backyard battles to championship glory, from playing under the legendary Pat Summitt to carving her own legacy as a head coach.Semeka Randall's story starts in Cleveland, Ohio, where her competitive spirit was forged in a neighborhood game called booty — a no-mercy test of toughness that left no room for fear. That same fire carried her to high school dominance, becoming a two-time Ohio Ms. Basketball and Parade All-American, before committing to play for the University of Tennessee.At Tennessee, Randall became part of one of the most iconic trios in women's college basketball — the legendary “Three Meeks” alongside Tamika Catchings and Chamique Holdsclaw. Together, they brought unmatched energy, intensity, and championship DNA to the Lady Vols, guided by the late, great Coach Pat Summitt.Randall's defensive ferocity and emotional leadership made her a fan favorite — and a nightmare for opponents. Whether she was racking up eight steals in a rivalry game or saluting Geno Auriemma after a dagger jumper, she played with pure heart and swagger. “I just wanted to beat his butt,” she laughs.After hanging up her sneakers, Coach Randall transitioned to the sidelines — and like any true competitor, she started from the bottom. She laughs about her rookie coaching mistakes (“I forgot the game tape once!”), but those early days taught her resilience, patience, and purpose.As an assistant at Michigan State, she helped guide the Spartans to a national championship appearance, solidifying her reputation as a brilliant recruiter and motivator. Her journey would take her through several programs before finding a true home at Winthrop University.Today, Coach Randall Lay is redefining what it means to build a program from the ground up. Since taking over at Winthrop, she's delivered the school's first winning season in a decade and is determined to restore pride to Eagle Nation. Her leadership mantra? “Why not Winthrop?”She's building more than a team — she's creating a culture. One rooted in discipline, defense, and belief. “I'll go through a brick wall for my student-athletes,” she says — and her players would do the same for her. With her contract extended through 2028, the best is yet to come.

What happens when the leaders in your hometown turn a Black neighborhood into a dumping ground?In part 2 of our conversation, environmental scientist and advocate Kibri Hutchison Everett takes us back to my hometown of Rock Hill, South Carolina, to confront the legacy of the so-called “Trash Pile.” What began with the placement of unlined landfill in the heart of a Black neighborhood, the Trash Pile stands as a stark example of how racist policy choices create sacrifice zones in the United States. It is now a neighborhood with no water, sanitation, or city services, despite being within city limits.Kibri shares how this desolate community still bears the scars of contamination, land loss, and disinvestment, and why she purchased a parcel of land there to transform it into a test site for community science and grassroots advocacy. Together, we explore how pollution, policy, and poverty intersect, and how data, organizing, and courage can shift the fight from environmental injustice to environmental and economic liberation.This is not just a story about Rock Hill, South Carolina or even the plight of Black communities in the South. It's about the structures that allow entire communities to be written off, and the movements rising to reclaim land, dignity, and a livable future.Connect with Kibri EverettLinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/kibri-hutchison-everett-646b051b3/Instagram: @the.enviro.vegan and @key.environmental.consultingWebsites: www.keyenvi.com & www.palmettofutures.orgBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-environmental-justice-lab--5583745/support.Connect with our Environmental Justice Lab community: Instagram: @envjusticelab YouTube: @envjusticelab Email: theenvironmentaljusticelab@gmail.comDon't forget to subscribe and rate the podcast wherever you listen!

What does it mean to fight for environmental justice when the very language of justice is under attack?In this first episode (of a 2-part series), I talk with environmental scientist, small business owner, and consultant Kibri Hutchison Everett about the fight for environmental justice. We trace her journey from growing up in Rock Hill, South Carolina (my hometown), to working in federal environmental data analysis, and ultimately to founding her own company to support communities on the frontlines of pollution and disinvestment.We talk about her work with the HBCU Environmental Justice Technical Collaborative, and Kibri speaks candidly about the realities of working with marginalized communities, and calling environmental racism what it is, even when federal agencies and political leaders try to erase the term. Together, we unpack how industries target poor Black, Brown, and rural communities, how changes in White House can roll back decades of progress overnight, and why grassroots organizing and data sovereignty remain critical tools for resistance.This is not just a policy discussion; it's a call to action. Tune in to learn how environmental justice plays out on the ground and why vulnerable communities are still forced to fight for clean air, clean water, and basic dignity.Resources: HBCU Environmental Justice Technical CollaborativeArticle: Environmental Justice in an Era of Federal RollbacksHBCU EJ Screening ToolJustice40 Awards TrackerConnect with Kibri EverettLinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/kibri-hutchison-everett-646b051b3/Instagram: @the.enviro.vegan@key.environmental.consultingWebsites: www.keyenvi.comwww.palmettofutures.orgBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-environmental-justice-lab--5583745/support.Connect with our Environmental Justice Lab community: Instagram: @envjusticelab YouTube: @envjusticelab Email: theenvironmentaljusticelab@gmail.comDon't forget to subscribe and rate the podcast wherever you listen!

Investigative journalists — Mandy Matney and Liz Farrell — broke major news this past Tuesday with the announcement that Myrtle Beach pastor JP Miller has been accused of raping a 15-year-old girl at his father's church, Cathedral Baptist Church (formerly All Nations Church), in 1998 and again sexually assaulting her in 2023.  The lawsuit was filed by Jane Doe No. 1 against John-Paul Miller, Reginald Wayne Miller, and their churches, including Solid Rock Ministries.
