Topics covered on this episode of KSL's Inside Sources include: Manhunt Continues For Brown University Shooting Suspect Too Much?

All this year, we've been checking in with Christiaan Mader, founder of the Current in Lafayette, Louisiana, for updates on the Acadiana region. He joins us now to reflect on some of the biggest stories from the past year and look to what's ahead. On December 20th, Tulane will face off against Ole Miss in the College Football Playoff. If Tulane wins, they'll go to the Sugar Bowl for the first time since 1939. And while the Green Wave suffered a pretty brutal defeat from Ole Miss back in September, the university's recent coaching drama may create more opportunities for the New Orleans team to succeed. At the helm of Tulane is quarterback Jake Retzlaff, who's been generating a following for his performance and demeanor both on and off the field. He formerly played at Brigham Young University, where he dove further into his Jewish faith at the predominantly Mormon school.Retzlaff faced a civil lawsuit that accused him of sexually assaulting a Salt Lake County woman in November 2023. The lawsuit was dismissed on June 30 after "the two sides agreed to dismiss the case with prejudice." Retzlaff transferred to Tulane instead of likely facing a seven-game suspension for violating BYU's honor code, which requires students abstain from premarital sex. Retzlaff joins us for more on his journey to Tulane, how he's raising the profile of Jewish athletes and his approach to the playoffs. The Louisiana holiday staple “The Nutcracker – A Tale from the Bayou” returns to the Baton Rouge stage next week, featuring professional ballet dancer Emilia Perkins. This is a homecoming for Perkins, who first danced in the production when she was just four.  She joins us now to talk about the impact it's had on her life and career, and what it is like to take the stage in her hometown as the Sugar Plum Fairy. —Today's episode of Louisiana Considered was hosted by Karen Henderson. Our managing producer is Alana Schreiber. We receive production and technical support from Garrett Pittman, Adam Vos and our assistant producer, Aubry Procell. You can listen to Louisiana Considered Monday through Friday at noon and 7 p.m. It's available on Spotify, the NPR App and wherever you get your podcasts. Louisiana Considered wants to hear from you!

This is Derek Miller, Speaking on Business. Since 1996, Go Pave Utah has delivered quality asphalt paving and commercial concrete services throughout Salt Lake County and beyond. Their work is built on a commitment to fair and honest relationships with employees, clients, vendors, and partners. CEO, Barney Boynton, joins us with more. Barney Boynton: Every day, business begins on our work. Parking lots aren't background scenery — they're the stage, front and center, where customers decide if they'll step inside, where tenants judge their investment, and where deliveries decide whether they'll be on time. Go Pave Utah, we treat every project as critical infrastructure for commerce. If pavement is cracked, unsafe, or failing, businesses lose money, trust, and momentum. We make sure that doesn't happen. When we're called, it means someone's revenue is on the line, and we answer fast — with solutions that last. That focus has made Go Pave Utah a trusted partner for property managers and business owners across the state. We don't slow down, we don't over promise — we deliver outcomes that keep Utah's businesses moving forward. Check us out at GoPaveUtah.com.
