In the photo from 1946, you can see the government's first attempts to stop soil erosion by including terracing in the fields. David Brennan says this took place at his family's Sesquicentennial Farm in Sauk County. He recalls the story of big equipment coming in to put terraces in the side of the hill. This is a common practice today in row cropping. His grandfather was the one who purchased the now 157-year-old farm. David and his wife own it today. In the 1960s, they took the terraces out and went to contour strips. They are strictly no-till for the field management. They sold the cows in 2007 and went from milking cows to raising beef. David and wife have a daughter and son-in-law who are interested in continuing the farming tradition.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

In the Twentieth Century, Chicago's Midway Airport had a sign that read “Crossroads of the World,” and during its heyday Midway literally was the aviation center of the world. From a historical perspective the same has been true for Chicago reaching back a century earlier as a critical hub of the railroads, during the Industrial Age as a center for trade and manufacturing, and for centuries before a meeting place for uncounted generations of Native Americans. The geographic reality was that where the Chicago river and estuaries of the Chicago region meet the southwest corner of Lake Michigan attracted indigenous peoples, Potawatomi, Miami, Anishinaabeg, Ho-Chunk, or Sauk and assuredly others portaging the divide, arriving by canoe or on foot. Sometimes they stayed for a while or moved with the migration of the game and seasonal changes. Hence this place called Chicago despite the low lying, swampy, muddy, and unattractive ground due to it's elemental location and convenient waterways has continued for centuries to be a key to the continent. This juxtaposition has spawned innumerable books on Chicago. In this episode we talk with author and Associate Professor of History John William Nelson Ph.D. about his recently published book Muddy Ground; Native Peoples, Chicago's Portage, and the Transformation of a Continent. This exhaustive history underpinned by impressive research re-enforces the basic fact that geography frequently dictates the destiny of an area and out of this meeting place and important key transportation link to the continent this muddy ground eventually gave rise to a mighty city. Dr. Nelson's book brings important new insights and a fresh perspective on the Canon of portage history for Chicago to offer the reader a fresh perspective of the region and its importance for Native Americans and foundational story of Chicago's origin and settlement.

Ännu ett olidligt möte har ägt rum. Denna gång är det Stefan Sauk som hälsar på i studion och programledarna målas upp som tuffa killar med händerna i fickan. Alex har i tidigare poddavsnitt gett Sauk diagnosen narcissist. Sauk å sin sida menar att poddarna livnär sig på mobbning. Dessutom stör han sig på killarnas uppsyn - de sitter arrogant - och beskriver deras liveshow på Rival som det pinsammaste han sett.

This year’s sale takes place May 10–11 at the Sauk Prairie High School Jeff Hicken Horticulutral Learning Center and features more than 8,000 plants grown by local students. Agriculture teacher and FFA advisor Troy Talford says there’s something for everyone. “We have over 70 different varieties of plants,” Talford said. “From hanging baskets and annuals to vegetables and herbs—it’s a little bit of everything.” Among this year’s favorites are coleus and begonias. “Coleus are always a big hit,” Talford shared. “We even dedicated an entire bench to them. Our dragon wing and angel wing begonias are also really popular and looking great this year.”See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Die Suid-Afrikaanse Sakekamer in Amerika sê hy het meer as 20 000 navrae van Suid-Afrikaners ontvang wat hulle in Amerika wil hervestig. Dit volg nadat Amerika se president, Donald Trump, Vrydag met 'n uitvoerende bevel hulp aan Suid-Afrika opgeskort het en die hervestiging van Afrikaners in Amerika prioritiseer wat slagoffers is van rasse-diskriminasie. Die sakekamer-president, Neil Diamond, het aan die SAUK gesê 'n massa-uittog van vaardige professionele boere uit Suid-Afrika kan moontlik plaasvind:
Angry outbursts erupted at a public meeting in south suburban Sauk Village Tuesday night, with tensions running high as trustees discuss nearly $100,000 in missing funds. Some trustees are pushing to get an internal audit to get to the bottom of where the taxpayer dollars are today. But some residents do not approve of the auditor some village trustees have in mind—saying his history with the village amounts to a conflict of interest. Anthony Finch has filed suit against the village and Mayor Derrick Burgess for wrongful termination. Now, four trustees want to bring Finch back to the village—but this time working as an auditor. "Why are we just now getting it when we've been behind in our audits three years, four years?" a woman said. "Why are we just now getting it?"
