Despite battling two brain tumors and undergoing intense treatments, Rowan has participated in the race since 2022, improving his time each year. Now in remission, he’s excited to beat his 50-minute record and enjoy post-race treats. The Rieve family, who raised $1,200 for pediatric cancer research, is dedicating this year’s run to Rowan’s late grandfather, Werner Rieve, honoring his memory while celebrating resilience and family unity.

Jon Ossoff faced criticism from fired CDC workers demanding stronger opposition to federal cuts under former President Trump. Ossoff called the layoffs “shortsighted” and defended the CDC as vital to public health, highlighting Medicaid’s role in Georgia. Fired workers accused him of insufficient action, prompting Ossoff to pledge meetings and further support. While some attendees expressed skepticism, Ossoff emphasized the need for a Democratic majority to counter Trump’s policies, warning of threats to democracy and the rule of law.

Welcome to The Georgia Politics Podcast! Today, we kick off Part 1 of our new mini-series, Breaking Away, exploring the municipalization of Sandy Springs. Joining us to discuss the legislative efforts behind the city's incorporation are former House Representative Wendell Willard and former Fulton County Commissioner Lynne Riley. Together, we take a deep dive into the behind-the-scenes work under the Gold Dome that made Sandy Springs a reality—an achievement that reshaped local governance in Georgia. For decades, residents of this northern Fulton County community fought for the right to govern themselves, facing resistance from county officials and state lawmakers. Their 30-year struggle, driven by issues of taxation, representation, and local control, ultimately led to a political showdown with lasting implications. In this episode, we'll examine the political battles, grassroots activism, and key figures who turned the dream of incorporation into reality in 2005. But Sandy Springs' story doesn't end there—its success sparked a wave of new city formations across metro Atlanta, reshaping the state's political and economic landscape. How did one community's determination change Georgia's approach to local governance? And what lessons can be learned from their experience? Join us as we unpack the history, controversy, and lasting impact of Sandy Springs' journey to cityhood in Breaking Away.

On my first date with my future wife, I picked her up in an Uber. I played it off as a romantic gesture, but the truth was that I didn't own a car. I'd given it up because I love public transportation. There's just something about it. You can clear your head, get work done, and actually see the city rather than focus on the traffic. Atlanta's version of the LA Metro is called MARTA. The Metropolitan Atlanta Rapid Transit Authority has 48 miles of rail track, 38 subway stops, and an abundance of bus routes. From Hartsfield-Jackson Atlanta International Airport to Sandy Springs, Buckhead to Brookhaven, And Decatur to Doraville, MARTA is taking people where they want to go today and tomorrow. And it can't do that without today's guest. Donna E. DeJesús joined the team in 1993 and has over 30 years of advanced experience in transit call center and customer service management. She's now the Director of Customer Service, but I just call her the Queen of MARTA. Nowadays, I do own a car. I had to have somewhere to put my toddler's car seat. I don't get many nights out, but when I do, I ride the light rail or the bus whenever possible. If you find yourself craving the rails, or maybe you've retired and just want to drive a little bit less, this conversation can empower you with the tips and tricks you need to get where you want to go via the mode of transportation with which you want to get there. So pay that fare, sit back, relax, and let Donna DeJesús dazzle you with some MARTA magic. 00:00-Hot MARTA Bochinche 03:58-All Aboard! 05:45-Reduced Fare Program for Seniors 09:36-MARTA Accessibility Committee 13:09-Exciting Updates 15:51-Access to All the Atlanta Fun & Senior Centers 19:21-Mobility Service 21:41-Getting to the Battery 23:12-Art Bound: Performances on the Platform 27:46-MARTA's Best Kept Secret 30:44-Donna's Team & Sustainability in Motion 35:31-Music in the Park 36:33-Overhauls and Tech by 2026 41:07-Staying Safe on MARTA Learn more about your ad choices.

The first reason is budget, as setting a low budget may result in limited clicks and missed opportunities. The second reason is not having a compelling offer or special promotion, which can attract more clicks and conversions. The third reason is not utilizing location assets or ad extensions, which can help dominate the search results page. Other reasons include not leveraging assets like site links and call-outs, targeting the wrong geographic area, not using negative keywords effectively, not converting leads effectively, and relying on Google's AI instead of managing the campaign hands-on.Keywords:Google Ads, dental practices, budget, compelling offers, special promotion, location assets, ad extensions, site links, callouts, geographic targeting, negative keywords, lead conversion, Google's AITakeaways:Setting an appropriate budget is crucial for the success of Google Ads campaigns.Having a compelling offer or special promotion can attract more clicks and conversions.Utilizing location assets and ad extensions can help dominate the search results page.Leveraging assets like site links and callouts can make ads more appealing and increase click-through rates.Targeting the right geographic area is important to avoid wasting ad spend.Using negative keywords effectively can prevent irrelevant clicks and save money.Converting leads effectively requires proper training and prompt follow-up.Managing the campaign hands-on is essential to ensure ads are aligned with the practice's goals and offerings.Chapters00:00Introduction: Eight Reasons Why Your Dental Practice's Google Ads Are Not Working03:23Reason 2: The Importance of Compelling Offers and Special Promotions06:11Reason 3: Dominating the Search Results Page with Location Assets and Ad Extensions08:34Reason 5: Targeting the Right Geographic Area for Effective Ad Campaigns10:30Reason 6: Using Negative Keywords to Prevent Irrelevant Clicks12:51Reason 7: Converting Leads Effectively for Better ROI17:39Reason 8: The Pitfalls of Relying on Google's AI for Ad CampaignsThis episode's client spotlight:Coastal Kids Dentistry: https://coastalkidspediatricdentist.com | https://g.co/kgs/yU7xTYyDentistry of Sandy Springs:  https://dentistryofsandysprings.com | https://g.co/kgs/EQezDLRShore Endodontics: https://shoreenFor 12+ years, Flow New Patient Marketing has had a simple mission… to bring you as many quality new patients as possible.

Another bombing, this time with two discrete bombs at an abortion clinic in Sandy Springs. The motivation behind the bombs was still unclear to law enforcement, but some were beginning to sense that they were somehow related. Three bombs, two locations, one with a warning call to 911. The pieces were beginning to come together, but the bomber was still on the loose. Standing back, standing by, ready to strike again.   Want to dive deeper? Follow @flashpoint_podcast on Instagram.

Ryan MacDowell, partner at MacBuilt Homes, joins host Carol Morgan for this week's Atlanta Real Estate Forum Radio episode. In this podcast segment, MacDowell discusses the custom home market in Atlanta and what clients can expect when they choose MacBuilt for their dream home. Born and raised in Atlanta, MacDowell is a second-generation homebuilder. He formed MacBuilt Homes in 2016 and instantly made an impact with Atlanta's luxury homebuyers. Driven by a desire to flip the script on builder-customer relations, MacDowell introduced newer technology to the construction process, creating a clear view of the project for builders and clients. Using an owner portal and updated photography, MacBuilt Homes involves homebuyers in the building process with daily updates. MacDowell said, “Our goal has always been to transform the industry so that people have an enjoyable experience overall.” MacBuilt has expanded its reach tremendously in the last ten years, touching metro Atlanta hotspots like Buckhead, Sandy Springs, Norcross and northern areas like Acworth and Woodstock. MacDowell's knowledge of the area has been instrumental in choosing new locations and providing an intelligent perspective of the Atlanta cityscape. Wondering what top design trends custom-home shoppers are choosing? Home styles like modern contemporary, modern farmhouse and traditional are popular among MacBuilt's clients. Quality is the backbone of most homebuyers' expectations but features like energy-efficient appliances and luxury flooring are appreciated. “They're expecting to come through on their final walkthrough and see that they're not having to put 100 pieces of blue tape on the walls,” said MacDowell, “They are expecting to see quality as it takes place.” Aside from custom-build projects, MacBuilt is pleased to offer customers renovation services as well. MacDowell notes that after the COVID-19 pandemic of 2020, the need for updated spaces increased. Some key projects include adding home offices, basements and other renovations that increase living space upward and outward. “There's certainly some people looking for multi-generational living again, too,” said MacDowell. “That had gone away for quite a while, and now it's about finding some spaces for family members to move back or for children to stay a little bit longer.” With mortgage rates at a steady high, many luxury homebuilders are seeing an increasing number of cash-only buyers. Atlanta is a hub for relocation, so buyers often come from out-of-state and find properties in the $1 to $2 million range, a significantly lower price from where they started. Who is putting down these offers? Among the MacBuilt Homes buyers, the cash-only offers are coming primarily from young technology professionals moving to Atlanta and 55+ individuals.
