Southeastern 16's Chris Lee and Jay Greeson preview the South Carolina Gamecocks for the 2025 season. Topics include: LaNorris Sellers was so outstanding in the second half that he's now considered a future NFL first-rounder. The Gamecocks' hopes revolve around one of the NCAA's fastest-rising stars. The Gamecocks need mega-talent Nyck Harbor to step up. South Carolina has a very experienced offensive line, including some off-season transfer additions. Mainstream expectation is that the defense will take a step back, but Dylan Stewart is one of the country's top defenders and coach Shane Beamer has done an outstanding job of developing defensive talent recently. Carolina has a special-teams rebuild, but that's an area where Beamer excels. Mason Love will be the rare kicker-punter leading the way.

Today on The Natural Birth Podcast we have Megan.Megan is a mama of two who's had two hospital births. She really wanted a home birth but her husband was not comfortable with that and so she wasn't either.To have a natural birth in a hospital today is almost impossible, especially without a kick ass birth advocate by your side and lots of education beforehand. You're stepping into their territory that pathologises birth with their interventions, policies and guidelines. This is just a fact.To have a natural birth today you need to get lucky with who's on shift, have a really quick birth or for the birth suits to be really busy so they have to leave you alone or have a birth support person there to advocate and protect your birth space.It's important to understand the reality you are choosing in order to make informed decisions. With this in mind, here are Megan's stories for all of you who are planning a natural hospital birth. Both Megan's births were with midwives but in different states. One in Alabama and one in South Carolina. She shares that her first was empowering as it was vaginal birth after induction. And just because you have midwives does not equate a better birth outcome. It all depends on their birth philosophy, their education and experience as well as where they work and for whom.Megan's second birth was an even better experience because she got to labor and birth in the water. She did however agree to a painful membrane sweep and to IV antibiotics for GBS+ status, which we will dive deeper into for your knowledge as many women face this decision in pregnancy.If you are, like many women, planning a natural hospital birth then please go and download my free ebook on the most common routine hospital birth procedures so that you can make a birth plan according to your wishes and that will help you optimize your chances of a natural birth.Find it at sacredbirthinternational.com under free resources or via the link in the show notes.Want to work with Anna or join The Sacred Birth Worker Mentorship?Find Anna's Website, about her Mentorship & How to Work with Her, as well as all Links & Resources she mentions in the episode here: www.sacredbirthinternational.com/links-podcast
The leaders of the Church in Missouri grew troubled. Saints were gathering there by the hundreds. Relatively few of them were obeying the law of consecration when they arrived. “Have you all fulfilled the law of the church,” William Phelps wrote to them in the Church's newspaper, “which saith: Behold thou shalt consecrate all thy properties, that which thou hast, unto me, with a covenant and a deed which cannot be broken? Meanwhile, in Ohio, the community of Saints continues to grow in size. Efforts to build a city of believers moves forward. However, challenges abound as the two communities enter into competition with each other generating some problems between the groups. Another revelation to Joseph from the Lord outlines one of the gifts of the Spirit that Joseph often mentioned as being the most important: the understanding of spirits. At the same time, one of Joseph Smith's most compelling prophecies was released: The prophecy on the American Civil War, recorded in Doctrine and Covenants 87. It outlines a future conflict beginning in South Carolina, escalating into a global war, and involving slaves rising against their masters. It also mentions the involvement of Great Britain and other nations. This prophecy, given on December 25, 1832, has been interpreted as a prediction of the American Civil War and subsequent global conflicts. But how well known was the prophecy? Was it easy to manufacture because of events going on in the nation at the time? Did Joseph tell people about it in advance or wait until the war started and conveniently say he had received a prophecy? The truth will surprise you. Join Dr. Lynne Hilton Wilson as she explores these exciting moments in LDS Church History.

South Carolina Mother and Son Sentenced for Brutal Murder of Disabled Man in Drug-Related "Mob" Attack A South Carolina mother and her teenage son have been sentenced to decades in prison for their roles in the brutal killing of a man who was first left in a wheelchair after a vicious beating, then murdered in what prosecutors described as a “mob-style” attack. On Monday, Samantha Watts, 42, was sentenced to 45 years in prison, and her son, Payton Watts, now 18, was sentenced to 35 years. Both pleaded guilty to murder in connection with the death of 29-year-old Corey Adam Soles in January 2023. The sentences were handed down as part of a plea deal, the Fifteenth Judicial Circuit Solicitor's Office announced. Prosecutors recommended that Payton, who was just 16 at the time of the murder, receive a sentence between 30 and 40 years, contingent on his mother accepting a plea without any sentencing recommendation from the state. According to court documents, Soles was attacked between January 8 and 9, 2023, in Horry County, South Carolina. He was first assaulted with a blunt object—believed to be wielded by Payton Watts—resulting in a broken leg. After that initial beating, Soles was confined to a wheelchair. Prosecutors say he was then beaten again, suffering fatal blunt force trauma to the head while he was defenseless. Soles was reported missing on January 10, 2023. His body was discovered six days later in a rural area near Galivants Ferry, according to local reports from WPDE. The case revealed a disturbing pattern of abuse and criminal activity involving multiple members of the Watts family. Prosecutors said Samantha Watts operated a drug distribution operation and controlled her family “like a criminal enterprise,” using her children as enforcers. Payton Watts, her youngest son, was described as her primary enforcer, groomed from the age of 12 to serve as her “muscle” and allegedly given drugs by his mother to manipulate and control him. During court proceedings, it was also revealed that Soles had previously sold surveillance equipment to Samantha Watts—an act she reportedly viewed as a betrayal. Prosecutors believe she suspected him of stealing from her drug operation, which may have triggered the violent retaliation. South Carolina Twelfth Circuit Judge Michael Nettles, who presided over the sentencing, acknowledged the pain and suffering endured by Soles before his death. “Can you imagine what it would be like to break one of the biggest bones in your body and sit there for 11 hours?” he said, referring to Soles' broken leg and prolonged suffering in a wheelchair prior to his murder.

The Chase HR 1 - Kamari Blair Picks South Carolina & Vols QB Mulitple Starters Debate
In 2019, Marcus Lattimore was inducted into the University of South Carolina Athletic Hall of Fame and it looked like one of the happiest moments of his life. Instead, he was at a major life crossroads as he battled the trauma from trying to figure out his identity away from football. Soon thereafter, Lattimore and his wife moved to Oregon and he basically scrubbed every trace of football from his existence. For so long, Lattimore was universally recognized and beloved back in his home state. People felt like they knew him because of what he did in a No. 21 jersey and what he said in press conferences after games. Turned out they didn't know much about him at all. Turned out he didn't even really know himself. Lattimore, who has been in Portland for the last five years, has made a whole new life for himself as a spoken-word poet and a speaker at drug and alcohol rehab centers. He recently published his first book titled "Scream My Name," a story of how one of the most prominent names in Palmetto State sports history found his true self and transformed his life. Lattimore's football career basically ended when he suffered a devastating knee injury in 2012 against Tennessee. "It's been a grueling experience, but it's definitely been worth it," Lattimore said. "I was dealing with a lot of uncertainty and a lot of existential questions that I wanted answers to. Like: Who am I outside of football? And what do I do outside of football? If you keep throwing those questions into the atmosphere, it's going to lead you somewhere." These are the same questions, and the same trauma, that confront high-profile athletes from all over when the cheering stops and they look in the mirror. Former Clemson star Tajh Boyd battled years of depression when his NFL aspirations were cut short and he tried to carve a niche in the real world. Lattimore is speaking for Boyd and many others when he reflects: "From a very early age, I thought that football was who I was as a human being. So when it's stripped away, there's a dying in a sense. Part of you dies. The old me died and I had to figure out how to go about life, how to resurrect as Marcus Lattimore without a football. Those were questions that I couldn't run from. "When you're 18 years old and you hear 60,000 people screaming your name, your brain changes forever. Pleasure was around every corner for me. You need a balance, and I couldn't find that balance at home." Lattimore also shares something that has never been revealed publicly: He committed silently to Clemson assistant Jeff Scott in the summer of 2009 before his senior year at Byrnes High School. He later signed with South Carolina, but he said he has a deep respect for Dabo Swinney and the culture he's built over 16 seasons as the Tigers' head coach.

First: Speaking yesterday at South Carolina's AFL-CIO convention in Greenville, Kentucky Governor - and possible 2028 presidential candidate - Andy Beshear said Democrats have a "huge opportunity" to claw back power from the GOP. But the big question remains: How? Plus: 500 tons of food meant to help starving people, paid for by US taxpayers, is now set to be destroyed. Why is it all being wasted? And: President Trump's latest tactic to quell the Jeffrey Epstein conspiracy is to blame the people who believe in it. What could that cost him? Learn more about your ad choices.

On June 6, 1986, a single mom of three awakes to find her 4-year-old daughter has been abducted from her bed near Lexington, South Carolina. The family is desperate to find her. The girl's sister tells law enforcement she saw a man in a ‘magic hat' carry her sister out the window. However, there is no sign of the youngster. The days, weeks, months, and years pass without answers as the missing girl's mother battles racism, corruption, and a bungled police investigation that ignores key evidence. Finally, decades after the abduction, and with the involvement of a private investigator, an arrest is made. The young girl's family is entirely unsurprised at the perpetrator's identity - it was someone they suspected all along. In episode 360, Jac and Alexis detail the heartbreaking abduction and murder of Jessica Gutierrez at the hands of Thomas Eric McDowell, and the importance of law enforcement listening to families, instead of stonewalling them.

Investigative journalists and True Sunlight Podcast co-hosts Mandy Matney and Liz Farrell — and attorney Eric Bland — are back at it, discussing the latest in crime, corruption and the courts. In today's episode Mandy and Eric share an update in the Stephen Smith case, plus their stories from the very successful walk held over the weekend in Hampton, South Carolina, after the 10th anniversary of Stephen's death. The event gathered over 120 people to walk in person and virtually raising over $12,000 for Stephen Smith's scholarship and investigation funds. Seeing Sandy happy and meeting the new Agent in charge of Stephen's case is entirely encouraging. Also on the show, we're looking at what went down last week in the Scott Spivey wrongful death case. Plus Mandy and Liz ask Eric to explain South Carolina's citizens' arrest law, which is what Attorney General Alan Wilson's office used to as an argument against charging Weldon and Bradley. And finally, Russell Laffitte and Alex Murdaugh will be celebrating a reunion this fall.
