Did Doc Holliday say, “I'm your huckleberry” or “I'm your huckle bearer?” Or is the whole debate built on nothing more than an internet myth? Join me today as we break down the famous line from Tombstone to hopefully separate fact from fiction. We'll examine the original Tombstone script written by Kevin Jarre, Val Kilmer's 2020 memoir I'm Your Huckleberry, and Tombstone: An Iliad of the Southwest by Walter Noble Burns. We also examine newspaper evidence showing that “I'm your huckleberry” was indeed a real idiom.

Atlanta City Councilmember Wayne Martin says there are plenty of nights when he still thinks about what it felt like to go from homelessness to finally having a place to call home. He remembers lying down at night and thinking about all the different beds he slept in as a child, including the time his family lived in hotels before entering a shelter. That lived experience, he says, has shaped every job he’s held and ultimately pushed him to run for office, and now work as a councilmember. On today’s Closer Look, Martin shares what issues he wants to address as the representative for District 11. Carrollton, Georgia, is quite different from the city of Atlanta, but for newly elected Atlanta councilmember Thomas Worthy, moving from his small southern hometown to Georgia’s capital was pivotal. “I think I am an absolute beneficiary of the opportunity that this city offers.” Worthy calls Atlanta an opportunity machine and says it’s one of the reasons he wanted to serve the city that has given so much to his career and has been a great place for him and his wife and to raise their three children. Worthy represents District 7, which consists mostly of north Atlanta. His main priorities include a check on “basic blocking and tackling” of city services, which include infrastructure and zoning issues. Worthy explained more about what he’s focusing on for his constituents on today’s Closer Look.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

“We built a business that was really there to be connected directly to the community, and I think we succeeded in that.”There are plenty of family-owned and run businesses in the local beer world, but few in which so many family members are as directly involved as Five Barrel Brewing in Wollongong.As if to prove the point, on the day we visited to record this podcast, Jane (mum) and Mike (dad) were setting up the bar and beer garden. Meanwhile, two of their three kids working in the business, Phil and Lucy, took a break from work to join us upstairs above the brewpub where, at various times, both Phil and his parents have lived. And it wasn't long before brother Tim got a mention too, in relation to a new side business he and Phil have just launched (which we learned about from Mike).The O'Sheas first opened Five Barrel in December 2015, just the second brewery in the Illawarra. Now, as they celebrate their first decade, they're part of a far larger local beer scene, which itself forms the start of an ever-longer South Coast Ale Trail stretching most of the way to the Victorian border. It's a scene in which they helped pave the way for the others, the evolution of which is just one of the topics covered in this episode.As well as reflecting on the ten years-and-counting – from the early days pouring samples in a restricted tasting room, releasing Hoppy Amber, and winning best brewery at the 2016 Sydney Craft Beer Week – right through to the launch of brewery software platform Abbl and plans to find a new home in the coming years, Lucy and Phil share insights on all manner of subjects relevant to anyone working in the craft beer community – all in typically thoughtful style.Prior to that chat, our look back on the week that was takes in our man in the South West's day spent soaking up the sights and smells of Margaret River Hops, part two of our Metro Tunnel Crafty Crawl, the new-look Molly Rose, and our jam-packed, inspiring trip to NSW.If you enjoy the show, please feel free to like and subscribe, rate and review wherever you watch or listen.

When you set "realistic" goals for your property management business, you might actually be limiting your growth without even realizing it…  In this episode of the #DoorGrowShow, property management growth experts Jason and Sarah Hull challenge entrepreneurs to think bigger, much bigger. Inspired by their experience flying a fighter jet and the concept of "impossible goals" from The Science of Scaling, they break down why realistic goals keep you stuck in current thinking, how unrealistic targets activate visionary leadership, and why 10X growth can actually be easier than incremental growth.  They explain how impossible goals shift your brain from grinding harder to thinking differently, why realistic targets often become a yardstick to beat yourself up, and how visionary entrepreneurs use bold thinking to collapse time, find new pathways, and unlock opportunities that logic alone would never reveal. They also share how to handle naysayers, protect your vision, and use doubt as fuel instead of letting it shrink your ambition. If you're ready to stop playing small, stop chasing "safe" growth, and start building something that transforms your market — this episode will challenge the way you think about goals, leadership, and what's actually possible in your business.   You'll Learn (00:00) Introduction to DoorGrow and Unrealistic Goals  (07:37) The Importance of Unrealistic Goals  (15:54) Overcoming Doubts and Limitations  (22:56) Visionary Thinking and Future Goals Quotables "I want to tell everybody to be unrealistic."  "You need to decide, I can do the things that I want to do."  "The slowest path to growth is to do it alone.

Resources DoorGrow and Scale Mastermind DoorGrow Academy DoorGrow on YouTube DoorGrowClub DoorGrowLive Transcript Jason & Sarah Hull (00:01) All right, five, four, three, two, one. All right, everybody, we are Jason and Sarah Hull, the owners of DoorGrow, the world's leading and most comprehensive coaching and consulting firm for long-term residential property management entrepreneurs. For over a decade and a half, we have brought innovative strategies and optimization to the property management industry. At DoorGrow, we are on a mission to transform property management business owners and their businesses.   We want to transform the industry, eliminate the BS, build awareness, change perception, expand the market, and help the best property management entrepreneurs win. Now, let's get into the show. All right, so today's topic, Sarah wanted to talk about. I want to tell everybody to be unrealistic. We're going to talk about unrealistic goals. She wants you to be unrealistic. I do want you to be unrealistic. And I also want you to clear all of this off. OK.   Yay. Happy. Yeah. Slightly. All right. All right. So one of the things that we got to do very recently is something that I never, never thought we would be able to do because it was seemingly unrealistic. And that was to fly a fighter jet. And by fly a fighter jet.   Yes, it was a real fighter jet. It's an L39 Albatross. For those of you that are familiar, it was not typically equipped with fighter equipment. It was mostly used as a trainer. However, it can be armed and therefore is classified as a fighter jet. And yes, we actually got to fly it. We didn't just go in it and take a look and see. Both Jason and I, one at a time, of course, got to.   fly a fighter jet and do some aerobatic maneuvers. Which was insanely fun. Right. So we took a trip to Australia and to visit my parents in Brisbane. And we saw a billboard that said, fly a fighter jet. And I was like, what? And Sarah's super into flying. So was like, hey, there's a thing. It says this. And she's like, what? I don't think so.   And I'm like, yeah. So it turns out there's, guess, the person there that runs it told us there's three countries in the world that allow you to do this because normally you can't fly one of these planes or go in as a consumer to fly one of these planes because, you know, there's all these rules because it's then a commercial flight and a commercial flight. have all these legal requirements and things you can't in the U.S. They cannot.   You cannot charter or pay for a chartered pay for a flight and then not have all these safety things in place. And this is not like, it's not the same, right? Like he's teaching us at the beginning how to eject. He's like, if we need to eject, this is what you need to do and like do this. And I'm like, what? And so there is not an ejection seat on it. There's no ejection seat. So what we'll do is we'll fly up really high and then you're going to.   do this thing and do this and the canopy will fly off and then you gotta push off. then once you're in the air and you've then pulled this thing, if your parachute doesn't automatically deploy, you wanna grab this. And I'm like, if I don't remember all this, I die? Like what? Yeah. So. It's just two levers. Could you imagine if you're on. It's two levers to open the canopy and he's gonna fly and you don't have to jump.   You're like, have to launch yourself. right, you don't have to launch yourself. You pretty much will just wait for the plane to fall out from under you while you float in parachute. Could you imagine you're like, get herded in like cattle into Southwest and you're like, you're on the Southwest bus, right? And you get your seat. Actually, they're going to have assigned seating now, I guess. But before I was just free for all. you're like, get in and you're like, and they're like, hey, by the way, here's how to.   like find a parachute and here's what all the steps you need to do in case there's a problem. Do you have this down or you die? You ready? We're like, wait, what? Yeah. They're just like, here's a flotation device and your seat and like here's how to use your seatbelt and then breathe in this thing if you need to. And otherwise, like that's it.   But yeah, like parachute down. Because on the airlines, it's like, if you survive the crash, then we'll tell you what to do after that. Don't worry about it. OK, so. Sorry. Yes. So no possible goal. It's very, very safe to fly on the airlines. is. it's it's consistently getting more and more safe. This is slightly different than flying on an airline. This was it was really cool. Super fun.   He let us take the little joystick control and like. The little joystick control. What do you call it? What is it called? The little joystick control. It's between your legs and it's a joystick. Don't get any ideas. just called But you grab this thing and like, yeah, you take the stick. like, do you want to do it? He's like, all right. He guided me through doing, I got to do a barrel roll. Yep. And I got to do a loop. Yep. Which I call a loop-de-loop. Yeah. But I got to do a loop-de-loop.   And it was really, it was crazy. Like I'm like doing, I'm like, and we got a video like on his DJI camera, like a GoPro, like the whole thing was recorded. So there's evidence that I did this. Right. But yeah, it pretty wild. was really wild that we could go do that. And apparently if you spend enough money and you're in the right country, you can do maybe anything. I don't know. There are certain places, upon further research.   There are certain places in the US that will let you fly certain jets. And the Albatross is actually the most common out of the ones that you can fly in the US. The is finding someone that will allow you to fly it. that's a bit different. Yes. Like if you get to control it. Because, yes, exactly. Yeah. And sometimes ⁓ these are owned by private owners. So like if you know a guy and you go, hey, can you...   Can you take me up? They might let you take the controls. might let you do it, you know, but there's also schools. I think there's one. Oh, I forgot where it's called, but it's called like Jet Trainer Center or something like that. The guy that runs it is Larry and they have an albatross is one of them, but I think they have like six different actual jets that you can fly and learn as well, which is   really cool. But then there's schools. So it's not impossible in the US. It's just there's a few extra hurdles that you might need to cross. it's something though that I thought I would never ever get to do. Like when you look at these crazy jets, generally I don't think   you look at it and go, yeah, I could fly that one day. We went to that air show. During any of that point, were you looking at those planes going, yeah, I could fly one of those. Yeah, I wonder what it would take to fly one of those. No, I was not thinking that. right, because you just don't usually think that it's possible. You think, oh, wow, those are probably owned and many of them are by museums.   or by some sort of club that's funded to keep this thing airworthy and maintained and flying, they probably aren't going to let the public fly it. Okay. So why is it important to have unrealistic goals? Well, I think you should be very unrealistic in your goals because if you're realistic, if you go, okay,   I just want to do things that I know that I can do. Then it almost takes the fun out of it, number one. And I think that's, for entrepreneurs, that's half the battle is, it fun? What was the journey like? Or was it something that you can just go, yeah, I did it, but everybody else can do it too. Where's the fun in that? Yeah, Cindy Lauper said girls just want to have fun. ⁓   So we had to make sure she had some fun. ⁓ Yeah, guys, we want to have some fun, too, right? So it was yeah, was super cool to be able to do that. I think the way I view this, I've been explaining the idea of unrealistic goals or impossible goals, ⁓ which we got the idea from Dr. Benjamin Hardy and his book, The Science of Scaling. And we got to hear him talk about this at a mastermind. The idea is that our.   know, realistic goals are based on our current limited level of thinking. And so that means our brain already knows how to do it. And it usually is just do what you already know how to do. But because that's not enough, just do more, work harder. And that's not a great strategy or great path is to just work harder because that's not really exciting. That's not super. That's not fun. Like, hey, work, work, do what you're doing already, but work harder, which is less, more uncomfortable. just.   More effort. Work 22 hours a day instead of 18. Yeah, yeah, more hours. And so Impossible Goals, our brain, I view as this magical like quantum computer. Like it can create whole realities instantly in our head while we're sleeping. And it can do all these amazing things. And our unconscious mind or subconscious can be working on problems and crunching and chewing on challenges and figuring stuff out and coming up with ideas.   that bubble up to the surface. But if we focus on realistic goals, it shuts down. It doesn't have anything useful to do. It's going to figure out why is this so hard? Cool. Here's all your reasons. Let's just make it harder. And how do we avoid pain? Well, I'm going to convince you or cause you to have challenges in just even doing this because this sounds uncomfortable. It doesn't sound fun. So I'm going to give you all the excuses and BS stories and reasons to not do it. So our brain actually starts working against us.   And so when we get in, so usually realistic goals become this yardstick by which we beat ourselves up with over the head, right? And we measure ourselves by it, but then it really just becomes a tool to beat ourselves up. Whereas when we shift into impossible goals or unrealistic thinking or unrealistic goals, it doesn't matter if we hit these goals. It just matters that we have this amazing new tool or resource to convince or get our brain to think differently and to come up with new pathways.   And so our brain becomes this awesome tool to find new pathways or new ways of thinking. And it gets us to think differently. So even if we don't achieve the goal, we're far more likely to get good results because we're thinking outside of our current limitations or the current box. And so we use goals as a tool or we use time as a tool. We either shorten the timeline for the outcome to where it becomes impossible or unrealistic, or we just 10x or increase the goal amount or what.   result we want to achieve in the timeline we had set. And so time becomes a tool or the goal becomes a tool and we find new pathways. We find new ways of doing this. And I've seen clients do this. I've seen this in reality. We've started doing this in our own business. And this is why we're able to innovate, come up with new ideas, because our brains are alive. This is where you actually shift as an entrepreneur into being a visionary entrepreneur. Because if you're focused on realistic goals, there's no vision. You already know what to do.   You know it all. You already know what to do. And so you're not focused on anything different or anything new. There's no vision there. And the Bible says where there's no vision, the people perish, right? You got to some vision. That's leadership. So now you're a visionary, you're a leader. And visionaries and leaders throughout history have always had some sort of goal that everybody said, that's not going to work. That's impossible. Why are you trying so hard? Just focus on something realistic.   And the cool thing about these impossible goals is even if you don't hit it, you're not going to beat yourself up. Like if your goal is a thousand doors in a year, but you hit 300, are you going to cry like a little baby? No, you're not going to cry. You're going to be like, Hey, this awesome. You're going to be excited. And so you're still like, I didn't hit the goal, but I won. But if you have a realistic goal and you're like, I want to get a hundred doors this year.   then you're going to feel like garbage when you don't hit it. Cause you're like, it's so realistic. know I could have done it and I didn't do it. And then you start beating yourself up and I didn't do it this year, Jason. And I should have signed up with door grow and I just didn't do it. And I would have achieved my realistic goals or maybe some impossible ones. And you drop the ball. You messed up. You should have got with us and we could have helped you out. All right. You messed up. Isn't that from A.A. You done messed up A.A. Ron. Yeah. Okay.   Key and peel. right. So here's how to not mess up your maintenance though in property management. OK. That was a segue to our sponsor. was. gave me like three of them and that's did we go with this? OK, cool. So ⁓ yes. So how do I turn that on? boy. All right. Right over here. Many clicks. wait. No, no. I got it. I got it. All right. So.   Yeah, you made me close this. because you said it was in the way. Right on the screen. Because you got to like. right. All right. Here we go. Sponsored by this episode, sponsored by vendor.

All right. It was a smooth transit, smooth operator. Cool. I'm leaving this up because I need the outro. Fine. No. Okay. I can't. Sorry. Well, I said no. all right. Cool. So here's what I was thinking originally, right?   is... boy. I know. So when you start to think about the things that you want to do...   You know when you have that half second where you just dream a little bit? Yeah. And it's almost like you get transported back in time where when you were a kid and people would ask you, what do you want to do when you grow up? And you can say anything. Yeah. And it doesn't matter what you say. You can say anything in the world. I'm going to be leader of the free world. I want to be an astronaut. President of the United States. you should be an astronaut.   I wanna be a doctor that operates on, I wanna be a brain surgeon, right? And people go, yeah, you should do that. That's amazing. That's so great. We need to get back to more of that in adulthood though. So now it's like, hey, what do you wanna do with your business? And for some reason, instead of this outlandish, unrealistic, seemingly impossible, crazy thing where it's like, you know what? I wanna take over an entire state.   or wanna dominate the entire market, or you know what? Actually, I think what I wanna do is I wanna get so big that I purchase all of my competitors and all of the slumlords properties and I turn them around. And then I completely eliminate bad property managers and slumlords in my market and I'm gonna do that. Man, that's exciting, but we don't allow ourselves to do that anymore as adults because we're so nervous about, but.   Can I do that? And what will other people think about it? And will people believe that I can do that if I say this crazy thing? Do you think that it would have been crazy for me to tell people, hey, one day I'm gonna go fly a fighter jet? Yeah, people would have laughed at me. They would have been like, yeah, sure you are. Sure, okay, Sarah, sure. So here's my current goal. And it's not a new goal.   It's on the list, but it's definitely staying on the list. My goal is to fly a Boeing 737 without being an airline pilot. You don't want to work for the airlines. So if I went to the airlines, it would be really easy. It's like, oh, okay. I mean, it's not that hard, right? Because you're choosing a path that you know is going to get you there. I don't want to work for the airlines, but I really want to fly a Boeing 737.   So without working for the airlines, that seems pretty much impossible. And in fact, I have shared this online on social media and pilots, pilots are telling me that it's impossible. They're like, yeah, good luck. You'll never be able to do that unless you work for the airlines or you could go fly a simulator. Why don't you just be happy with the simulator? So when we share these crazy goals and people go, you can't do that. That's never gonna happen.   Are you insane? Like, who do you think you are? That's my favorite one. I'm like, you don't even know who I am, right? Who do you think you are? You can't do that. I'm like, watch me. Watch me. Just watch. So for me, like that's fuel. For other people, it's so crushing. For other people, when people have this huge goal and they're like, ⁓ I'm so excited about this. I'm going to do this. And other people, nay, nay on that.   And they go, no, no, no, you can't do that. Let's keep you down here. Let's keep you small. I don't know. You're dreaming too big. Like that's not, it's not going to happen for you. Sometimes that feels really crushing and it takes the wind right out of your sails. And then you go, you know what? Maybe they're right. I shouldn't even try. Okay. So you can either use it as fuel. If you're somebody like me who likes to prove people wrong.   then that's great fuel. If that doesn't fuel you, then you need to be very selective with who you tell your goals to. So if you know that, I'm gonna say this thing in the first second that I get pushback or questions or doubt or people who are just fearful and not as confident as I am in my dream and in my belief, and that's gonna shake me and that's maybe not gonna help me.   pursue this goal that's going to deter me and bring me down and slow me down, yeah, then you need to be very selective with who you're sharing that goal with. And sometimes you have people around you that are really supportive and sometimes you don't. So the message in this is one, have the goals that just seem like...   They are impossible. Like Sarah, there is not a way to fly a Boeing unless you work at the airlines. And I laugh at it. When I see people personally, when I see people commenting like that, I go, ⁓ that is a cue to me. It tells me how small their vision is. Their thinking is limited. So. Yeah. It's kind of it's once you're on the other side of it.   Once it's like once you see something you can't unsee it. So once you're on the other side of that and now you hear somebody saying you can't do that. That's not possible. That's not realistic. That's never going to happen. That's not how things work. Who do you think you are? I can't believe you would even think something like that is possible. Is that a good idea? Right. All of those things. Then you start to go home. Well.   for someone like that, yeah, it would be impossible, but not for someone like me. So you need to decide, I can do the things that I want to do. And as soon as you make that decision, like flying a fighter jet, super cool. How much effort did we put into making that happen?   No, we made a phone call. We paid money. Yeah. He saw a billboard. We put on a jumpsuit. We climbed in the plane. That's it. He saw a billboard. And then we didn't try. didn't. And then I grabbed the little stick thingy. Oh, God. And then I just did it. The joystick. So we didn't try to hunt people down. We didn't try to find a place that we do it. We didn't do a bunch of research. We didn't spend a lot of time talking about it or researching it or.   trying to find people who know people. We didn't do anything. We saw a billboard. So sometimes when you have an unrealistic goal, it's okay if you don't know how it's going to happen because it very rarely happens the way that you think it's going to happen anyway. Because once you decide...   and once you're confident, once you're solid in that goal and you go, I am committed to doing this crazy thing and I don't care if people think that I'm crazy for wanting to do this thing, I'm going to make it happen. All of a sudden, doors start opening for you, phone calls start happening, connections start happening. Derek and I were just talking about this last week. It's the things that you can They don't know who Derek is. Derek Morton is one of our amazing clients who's taking over the state of Utah.   So it's very often the things that you would never expect, you would never plan, you would never be able to sit down and think in like, you know, your 150 step plan to get me from A to B, it wouldn't make the list because the things that will happen to you, they will just come to you. Things will just happen. The right opportunities will show up. The right people will show up. The right connections will show up.   Things will just start falling in place and happening for you, but it all stems on one thing, and that is your belief in your ability to do things that are seemingly unrealistic. There you go. Cool. All right. So I concur. I agree. Have impossible or have unrealistic goals. Why? Because when you shift into that level of thinking, no longer is it that yardstick. Now you're in playground.   Now you're in this fun space of like imagining, having vision, and it doesn't matter if you hit it or not. It just, it shifts you into a healthier space of thinking. And then you'll find new pathways. You'll find new ideas. You'll find ways to collapse time. ⁓ Ben Hardy calls it finding wormholes. You find these ways to get to the result in a much shorter period of time that takes way less steps. It's not as much work. He wrote a preceding book before that, that was called 10 X is easier than two X. And in that he's talking about how   It's actually easier to go bigger than to focus on smaller growth goals because smaller growth goals, there's a lot of different ways to do it and it's a lot of hard work, but there's very few ways to grow big quickly and it's usually less steps and less work. So a of people think, well, it's going to be so hard. It's actually easier if you do it right. So have some impossible goals. Okay. Anything else we need to add to this? One last thing is we have a...   Seemingly impossible goal right now a door grow that we are yet again Making a reality.

Send a textA county's name hides a better story than any barroom legend. We pull back the curtain on Colonel James Hobart Ford—the Union officer whose grit, speed, and stubborn discipline shaped the ground beneath Dodge City long before gunfighters made it famous. From Ohio roots to the Colorado Territory, Ford rose fast, helped raise the 2nd Colorado Infantry, and proved himself at Glorieta Pass, where Union forces stopped Confederate designs on the Southwest. Then came the crucible: the Kansas–Missouri border, where guerrilla raids and burned homes defined the fight and where Ford's aggressive command went head-to-head with bushwhackers like Quantrill.We follow Ford into the decisive sweep of 1864, where his leadership mattered at the Battle of Westport and across the pursuit of Sterling Price, driving Confederate hopes out of Kansas and back into Arkansas. As the Civil War shifted to the plains, Ford took command of the District of the Upper Arkansas, often working from a tent under open sky. Here the mission changed: protect the Santa Fe Trail, balance settler pressure against Cheyenne, Arapaho, and Kiowa resistance, and hold a fragile peace along a corridor that powered trade and migration. Out of this work rose a modest sod outpost that later became Fort Dodge, a linchpin for the region and a seed for Dodge City's explosive future.Ford died at 38, never seeing the cowboy capital take shape. Yet five years later, Kansas named Ford County in his honor—a recognition not of legend, but of logistics, patrols, and hard choices made along a dangerous border. We share archival insights from the Ford County Historical Society and the Ford County Legacy Center to bring his story to life: a portrait of a commander who traded romance for results and left a county that still bears his name.

Welcome to another completely stable and professionally executed daily comedy show… where one host is preparing for a cruise that may or may not include hostage negotiations, another is heading to Vegas to sit on a radio panel titled “Reports of Our Death Are Greatly Exaggerated” (which feels aggressive), and the rest of us are arguing about hockey and stuffed monkeys.Rafe is setting sail toward Mexico during what the news is lovingly describing as “a tense time,” and naturally we handle it with firearms training jokes, cartel commentary, and Norwegian Cruise Line optimism. Meanwhile, Rizz is headed to Vegas for a radio conference panel alongside a guy flying his own private plane. Rizz? Row 20 on Southwest. Celebrity row, obviously. Fremont-adjacent accommodations. Lifts packed. Confidence medium.We also spiral into Vegas buffet strategy like it's a military operation. Crab legs first. No bread. Absolutely no French toast. If you leave feeling fine, you did it wrong. That's the rule.Back in STL, Moon lived his best cultured life at Phantom of the Opera at The Fabulous Fox Theatre (tears were shed, nuts were purchased), then followed it up with a suite-level experience at a St. Louis City SC match where apparently the buffet alone deserves its own documentary. Meanwhile, Rizz is still emotionally recovering from Canada being “butthurt” about losing Olympic hockey in overtime. Scoreboard is the judge. That's how sports work.We also check in on Punch the abandoned baby monkey who went viral hugging his IKEA orangutan, debate whether AI is the future or the apocalypse, invent a game show called House of Steve, and confirm that yes, Vegas is expensive now and no, the $4.99 steak days are gone forever.This daily comedy show somehow covers cruise chaos, Olympic gold, Broadway tears, casino buffets, monkey redemption arcs, and trivia-night costume strategy in one episode. It's chaotic. It's unnecessary. It's exactly what you signed up for.If you like funny stories, pop culture commentary, sports meltdowns, entertainment gossip, and sarcastic humor from a funny morning show in St. Louis, congratulations — you've found your new favorite daily comedy show.Follow The Rizzuto Show → linktr.ee/rizzshow for more from your favorite daily comedy show.Connect with The Rizzuto Show Comedy Podcast online → 1057thepoint.com/RizzShow.Hear The Rizz Show daily on the radio at 105.7 The Point | Hubbard Radio in St. Louis, MO.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

There are stories you follow for so long that they weave themselves into your own becoming. This episode is one of them. From the opening minutes, Matt Logelin brings us back to the moment his life split in two—when joy and devastation arrived within hours of each other. He describes, with rare honesty, the day he became both a brand-new father and a widower at thirty, the surreal blur of hospital hallways, and the impossible grief of losing his high school sweetheart just one day after their daughter Maddie was born. His recollection is heartbreaking, vivid, and deeply human, a reminder that life can turn without warning—and that somehow, we still learn to breathe again.As Matt walks us through those early months, we hear the raw truth of parenting through shock, survival, and tenderness. He shares how he learned to raise Maddie alone, how strangers became lifelines, and why writing—despite his insistence that he hates doing it—became the thread that held him upright. His blog unexpectedly reached millions, offering a window into a life rebuilt mile by mile, record shop by record shop, midnight bottle by midnight bottle. What emerges is not a story about tragedy, but about devotion—the devotion of a young dad determined to give his daughter the rich, joy-filled life her mother would have wanted.And then comes the unexpected: new love on a Southwest flight, a blended family built with gentleness and humor, and two more daughters who helped rewrite everything he thought he knew about fatherhood. Matt shares how he navigated the complexity of loving again after loss, how his wife Lizzie embraced not just him but the entire constellation of his life, and why their family's story—immortalized in his bestselling memoir and the Kevin Hart Netflix film Fatherhood—is ultimately about hope. By the end of this episode, you'll feel it too: the truth that grief and joy can coexist, that families can be rebuilt, and that second chapters can be breathtakingly beautiful.

Photo: The entrance to the Hubbell Trading Post National Historic Site in Ganado, Ariz., on the Navajo Nation. (Gabriel Pietrorazio / KJZZ) The Interior Department is reviewing signs posted at more than a dozen national parks and monuments as part of President Donald Trump's agenda to “restore truth and sanity to American history”. As KJZZ's Gabriel Pietrorazio reports, one figure featured at the Hubbell Trading Post National Historic Site on the Navajo Nation is now in the crosshairs. To Navajos, Ganado Mucho (Many Cattle) is like a folk hero. He went on the “Long Walk”, marching hundreds of miles to be held at a New Mexico fort until he and other leaders signed an 1868 treaty. “And he wasn't defeated in the easy binary of stories that are winners and losers, but peacemaker doesn't mean you're not a resistor.” University of Oklahoma professor Farina King (Diné) says Mucho's legend may be at odds with how the U.S. wants to remember its past on the heels of the nation's 250th anniversary. “The thorn in the side is a disruption to the celebratory stories of Manifest Destiny, conquering the West, taming it and subjecting, you know, Indigenous peoples as if they're just a part of a wild landscape.” Three Navajo men, Tiene-su-se, left, Ganado Mucho, and Mariano in 1874. (Courtesy National Anthropological Archives / Smithsonian Institution) Once freed, Mucho then met fellow trader John Lorenzo Hubbell and kept making peace in the Southwest, settling disputes – often between Mormon ranchers and Navajos. In 1878, Hubbell set up his iconic trading post – still open to this day – and would rename that area. Hence Ganado, Ariz. Health care officials say a new Level IV EMS trauma facility opened by the Winnebago Tribe of Nebraska will mean faster and more efficient care for residents who need emergency medical attention. Mark Moran has more. Winnebago Comprehensive Healthcare Services completed a $15 million emergency department in December, which then received a Level IV trauma center designation from the Nebraska Department of Public Health. Marketing Specialist Halle Murray says the new facility is a dramatic upgrade over calling 911. “Maybe the response time for Winnebago is longer if you try to call 911. So, here we actually have our own emergency line. It’s just a quicker response time, whether that’s needing help with something, or a ride to the hospital in an ambulance.” It took six years for Winnebago’s emergency department to earn the trauma center designation, which included rigorous training for the medical professionals and other staff who work there. In additional to advanced training and updated treatment protocols, the site itself was subject to a series of inspections and reviews prior to its Level IV designation. Murray says the trauma center fills a big need. “There’s always people who need help here on the reservation. Again, just getting to them quicker and helping them out the best that we can, and helping them get the care that they deserve, and I would say it’s a huge need in the Winnebago community right now.” Nebraska has one Level I trauma center, located in Omaha. A bill in the New Mexico Legislature that would have allowed state driver's licenses and identifications to include Native American designations failed as the session closed last week, New Mexico In Depth reports. The bill would have allowed applicants to request a mark to appear on their license or ID as Native American. Supports say it is in response to federal immigration actions taking place across the country, as Native Americans have been among those confronted by U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE), and having the designation would be another layer of identification. A handful of tribes in the state reportedly supported the bill. Get National Native News delivered to your inbox daily. Sign up for our daily newsletter today.

As a baby, Sarah didn't know that her diagnosis with asthma would be the first in a long list of diagnoses that would eventually grow to over twenty.  Today she manages these conditions with the help of her husband Dan and cat Daisy.  She juggles her self care with working as a fundraiser for a charity organization and screening films for the South by Southwest film festival.  When not working, she finds joyful movement as a ballroom dancer. In this episode of the Major Pain podcast, Jesse talks with Sarah about her health journey, including several illnesses we have never discussed on the show before.  The first is exercise induced laryngeal obstruction (EILO), an asthma like condition involving the vocal chords closing, which prevents patients from bringing in air properly during intense physical activity.  The second is lichen sclerosus, a skin condition causing discolored and thin skin.  Due to the sensitive and personal nature of this condition it can be extremely hard to discuss, making first-hand information scarce. Other topics of discussion include central auditory processing disorder, making it difficult to understand words spoken in a noisy or distracting environment, and managing neurodivergence on top of multiple physical conditions. Sarah is continuing to work at being joyfully disabled. She hopes to show others that with a little accommodation you can live a full life with chronic illness.  She wants others to take the advice she has the most trouble taking herself, to be compassionate to yourself, and know that gratitude is not a competition.

Updates on the DCA midair collision, JetBlue software glitch, Air India B787 fuel control switch, injuries on United B777 flight, and Toronto CRJ-900 rollover. Also, the AA CEO’s message to employees, DOT mandate to purge DEI, Portland International Jetport passenger volume, Elliott Management and Southwest, and flight attendant carry-on bags. Plus, our first report from the Singapore Airshow. Guest Air Accident Updates We look at some air accident and incident updates in the press: NTSB Chair Slams FAA for Ignoring Repeated Warnings, Says Midair Collision Was Preventable In this C-Span video, NTSB Chair Jennifer Homendy slams the FAA, saying that it let its guard down and ignored repeated warnings that ultimately led to the deadly midair collision near Washington Reagan National Airport on January 29, 2025, that killed 67 people. “We should be angry, because for years no one listened. This was preventable. This was 100 percent preventable,” Homendy says. Passengers on JetBlue Plane That Plummeted When Flight Computer “Glitched Out” Sue Airbus for Negligence The JetBlue A320 experienced a sudden “uncommanded loss of altitude,” initially attributed to a software glitch that Airbus believed could result from intense solar radiation. This led to an emergency worldwide recall in November 2025, with an estimated 6,000 A320-series aircraft affected. Three passengers on that flight are now suing Airbus for allowing an “unreasonably dangerous” glitch in the system to go unchecked. Those passengers question the solar flare explanation and claim that JetBlue was aware of a recurring issue with the Elevator and Aileron Computer (ELAC) system. No defect found in switch of jet grounded by Air India – regulator Pilots on an Air India B787-8 noticed that during engine start, the fuel control switch did not “remain positively latched in the run position when light vertical pressure was applied”. This happened twice. The third time, the switch operated normally. The Directorate General of Civil Aviation (DGCA) said that when the switches were operated according to Boeing’s recommended procedure, they were found to be “satisfactory”, staying at run instead of moving to cut-off. The DGCA reported that, when incorrectly handled, the switch would “move easily from run to cut-off”. See also, Pilot alert prompts Air India checks on all Boeing 787 fuel control switchesby Rachel Chitra. Three United Airlines Flight Attendants Seriously Injured After Air Traffic Control Failed To Alert Pilots Of Turbulence The NTSB has released its final report on the February 10, 2024, incident where a United Airlines 777-200 experienced a sudden drop, seriously injuring three flight attendants and throwing several passengers and an unsecured baby into the ceiling. The NTSB concluded that a contributing factor was air traffic controllers’ failure to alert the pilots of turbulence in the area. TSB Canada Releases Update on 2025 Toronto CRJ-900 Crash Investigation Photo Credit: TSB Canada. The accident occurred at Toronto/Lester B. Pearson International Airport (CYYZ) on February 17, 2025, when the CRJ-900 regional jet attempted to land and struck the runway hard, causing the right wing and tail section to separate from the fuselage. The plane flipped upside down and slid to a stop. The wreckage was transported to a hangar while the right wing, landing gear, wing box structure, and related parts were taken to the Transportation Safety Board of Canada (TSB) Engineering Laboratory in Ottawa for testing. The metallurgical analysis of the wing and landing-gear fractures is now being examined. Recordings from the flight data recorder, cockpit voice recorder, quick access recorder (QAR), and the enhanced ground proximity warning system have been examined. Data from prior flights on the same aircraft were also compared to the accident flight for context. Evidence was collected from NAV CANADA's Toronto surface movement guidance system and the airport's closed-circuit television footage. A full meteorological review, including wind data and soundings, has also been finalized to understand weather conditions at the time. Simulator sessions have been run. The full preliminary report is available here. Aviation News Under Pressure American Airlines CEO Robert Isom Tells Staff That Everything Will Be Alright In New Video Message In a new video message to staffers, American Airlines chief executive Robert Isom says, “As we look forward to 2026, it's with a lot of excitement and confidence. I know we're going to do better financially and operationally. We have a plan to be solidly profitable this year, which will mean good things for our customers, our shareholders, and all of you.” Isom articulated strategies concerning the customer experience, hub facility investments, maximizing the power of the AA network and fleet, new routes, new frontline team members, new aircraft, AAdvantage program changes, and doing a better job selling the AA product. Trump's U.S. Transportation Secretary Sean P. Duffy Doubles Down on Purging DEI From Our Skies, Calls on Airlines to Affirm Pilot Hiring is Merit-Based The FAA is issuing a new mandatory “Operations Specification” (OpSpec) requiring all commercial airlines to commit to merit-based hiring for pilots formally. The mandate (New Mandatory OpSpec A134, Merit-Based Pilot Hiring, for Certificate Holders Conducting Operations Under 14 CFR Part 121 [PDF]) is effective February 13, 2026. U.S. Transportation Secretary Sean P. Duffy said, “When families board their aircraft, they should fly with confidence knowing the pilot behind the controls is the best of the best. The American people don't care what their pilot looks like or their gender—they just care that they are most qualified man or woman for the job. Safety drives everything we do, and this commonsense measure will increase transparency between passengers and airlines.”  ALPA Statement on Pilot Training and Qualification Standards Capt. Jason Ambrosi, president of the Air Line Pilots Association, Int’l (ALPA), issued a statement that included: “All ALPA pilots are trained and evaluated to the same uncompromising standard regardless of race, gender, or background. A pilot’s identity has no bearing on their ability to safely operate an aircraft. What matters is training, experience, and qualification — and on that front, there are no shortcuts and no compromises. “At ALPA, our work to advance aviation safety never stops, and as always, ALPA airline pilots remain ready to safely transport passengers and cargo to their destinations. Safety is, and always will be, our number one priority.” Portland International Jetport logs busiest year in its history The Portland International Jetport had a record year in 2025, with more than 2.59 million passengers traveling through the airport. The previous record was 2.44 million in 2024. The Jetport says it became the first airport in New England to surpass its pre-pandemic passenger levels in 2023. Southwest Airlines Turns a Corner as Activist Investor Elliott Walks Away Elliott Management, an activist investor, began to acquire shares of Southwest stock in mid-2024. It bought enough shares to gain board representation and dictate the Airline's strategic and financial changes. As a result, we saw paid assigned seating, baggage fees, expiring travel credits, and adjustments to its Rapid Rewards program. Southwest also looked at asset sales and balance sheet strategies to fund share buybacks. But in late 2025, Elliott began reducing its stake, and by early February 2026, its ownership dropped to about 9 percent. Two Elliott representatives have resigned from the board at Southwest. Southwest Airlines Now Faces a Flight Attendant Backlash As Hand Luggage Woes Grow Southwest moved a dedicated overhead bin for crew members to the back of the plane, and flight attendants are not happy. Passengers sitting at the front of the plane who have paid more or have elite status find that bin space is an issue.

Earlier this week, we discussed ideas for bringing people back to our city center — including promoting Portland's nightlife. Many cities across the U.S. have hired night-time economy directors, or “night mayors,” to manage and boost late-night scenes, and it's paying off. Today, we're revisiting a conversation host Claudia Meza had with Philadelphia's Night Time Economy Director, Raheem Manning, about how he keeps Philly running all night long and whether Portland could benefit from this type of leadership.  This episode originally aired on March 24, 2025.

When it's chilly out, there's nothing better than a cozy bar, and vinyl bars appear to be that peak winter vibe.

Today's episode of The Rizzuto Show is what happens when a daily comedy show collides with real life and nobody wears pants (literally).We kick things off with a full-blown airline etiquette debate after a flight armrest standoff turns into a larger discussion about personal responsibility, panic disorders, and whether Southwest dropped the ball harder than your carry-on in turbulence. It's a surprisingly thoughtful debate… for about six minutes. Then we spiral. Because that's what a daily comedy show is supposed to do.From there? Buckle up.We've got a 58-year-old man going full naked rampage in a high-end West Pine apartment building, smashing million-dollar statues and trying to recruit unwilling participants. STL weird news strikes again. Then there's a repeat offender who just will not stop exposing himself — even when police literally try to pull his pants up for him. You can't make this stuff up, and we wouldn't if we tried.Neighborhood drama? Oh, we got that too. A Hillsboro dad decides the appropriate way to handle a bullying dispute is with a hammer. Yes. A hammer. Not a conversation. Not a strongly worded email. A hammer. Conflict resolution level: medieval.But it's not all chaos. We also pause to honor Linda Edwards of Blueberry Hill — a true Saint Louis creative force who helped shape the Delmar Loop's iconic vibe. It's heartfelt, nostalgic, and then somehow transitions into allergy shot support groups and BJC waiting room perspective checks.Because this is The Rizzuto Show. A daily comedy show that can go from heartfelt tribute to “are butterflies and bees friends?” in under 90 seconds.And then… portals open.It's the Year of the Fire Horse. Lunar New Year. Solar eclipse. Age of Aquarius. Three portals. 72 hours. Big reset energy. Whether you believe in cosmic destiny or just believe in dumb hypotheticals about whether it's better to look smart or be smart — we unpack it all.This episode has:STL crime chaosWeird neighbor fightsAirline lawsuitsMental health debatesAllergy shot war storiesA philosophical crisis about being a dumbassAnd at least one reference to Mississippi self-defense lawIt's messy.

James Tawney didn't grow by trying to be everything to everyone. He picked one kind of case, learned it better than anyone around him, and built his entire career around it. While other firms send calls to answering services, James still has lawyers take those calls—sometimes in the middle of the night—because he believes the first conversation decides the case.  In this episode, he walks through how focus, hands-on intake, and a strong local identity helped him attract the biggest trucking cases in the Southwest. You'll learn: Why James decided to take only trucking injury cases. What really happens when a lawyer answers the phone instead of a call center. How his firm cracked the case in a $30 million truck accident. If you like what you hear, hit Subscribe. We do this every week. Buy tickets for PIMCON 2026: pimcon.org Get Social!

On Chicago's Southwest and East sides, the presence of federal agents lingers long after they left town. The mental health of many communities needs attention. Businesses are still struggling to bring back customers.

We believe all neighborhoods deserve to be covered in a meaningful way.We amplify positive stories, cover development and local school council meetings and serve as watchdogs in neighborhoods often ostracized by traditional news media.Ground-level coverageOur neighborhood-based reporters don't parachute in once to cover a story. They are in the neighborhoods they cover every day building relationships over time with neighbors. We believe this ground-level approach not only builds community but leads to a more accurate portrayal of a neighborhood.Stories that matter to you — every daySince our launch seven years ago, we've published more than 30,000 stories from the neighborhoods, covered hundreds of community meetings and send daily and neighborhood newsletters to more than 150,000 Chicagoans. We've built this loyalty by proving to folks we are not only covering their neighborhoods, we are a part of them. Some of us have internalized the national media's narrative of a broken Chicago. We aim to change that by celebrating our neighborhoods and chronicling the resilience of the people who fight every day to make Chicago a better place for all.

Africa Highlights and Travel Lessons: Egypt Challenges, Gorilla Trekking, Vic Falls, and Cape TownTyler hosts Non Rev Lounge in Austin with returning guest Melissa and her husband Jay, longtime friends who first met Tyler on a Southwest flight and later traveled together to Hawaii. They discuss Melissa and Jay's multi-week Africa trip planned around Jay's 50th birthday, including missing Tyler's family by a few hours in South Africa due to itinerary timing. The conversation covers a difficult, budget-style stop in Egypt (Cairo) with a non-English-speaking driver, getting lost en route to the pyramids, frequent requests for money from vendors and even a police officer, confusion around museum pickup logistics, being taken to an underwhelming “bazaar,” disappointment about a cheaper-than-expected dinner cruise, and an unpleasant hotel dining payment incident; they conclude Egypt is better done via a prepaid guided tour or river cruise. They then describe traveling through Rwanda and Uganda, visiting the Kigali Genocide Museum (highly emotional and impactful, leading them to skip the planned city tour) and completing a gorilla trek in Uganda's Bwindi Impenetrable Forest They also recount activities around Victoria Falls such as the Devil's Pool experience on the Zambia side (swimming across, proximity to hippos/crocodiles, and fish nibbling feet), plus zip lining, lion walking (with safety rules and notes about controversy and the operator's reluctance), rafting, and a Botswana safari near Chobe National Park and the Chobe River with many elephants. They touch on flights and logistics—using miles for British Airways into Egypt, buying some intra-Africa flights for reliability (including Ethiopian and Kenya), concerns about weight-restricted flights returning to the U.S. (ultimately flying United to Newark and onward), using candy as a thank-you (sometimes refused as a “bribe”), and doing laundry via sink washing and local services. 00:00 Welcome to NonRev Lounge + Introducing Melissa & Jay01:56 How Tyler & Melissa Met: The Southwest Flight That Started It All02:53 Buddy Passes, Hawaii Trips, and Travel Style Differences04:59 Back to Austin: Texas Weather Whiplash & Catching Up06:07 Why Africa?

Send a textTim Seward built a 65 MPH electric moped in his garage to one-up his buddies. People wouldn't stop asking where to buy it. So he started Onyx Motors, raised almost a million bucks on Indiegogo in 3 hours… then sold the company for $1. When his successor died unexpectedly, Tim came back to rebuild from scratch. This is that story.The RCR 80V is a 91-volt electric motorbike that hits 65–75 MPH, goes 130 miles on a charge, runs Apple CarPlay, and costs about 75 cents to charge at home. It's built on a metal tube frame with swappable aluminum panels — designed from day one to be customized, modded, and made your own. Think less iPhone, more Lego kit.Tim breaks down the moped gang culture that started it all, why Americans are 20 years behind the rest of the world on two-wheeled transport, what he learned designing scooters at Bird, and why Gen Z might never buy a car.CHAPTERS0:00 – Cold Open0:00 – Intro: Who is Tim Seward?0:01 – Why Build Something That Lasts?0:03 – Moped Army & Moped Mondays0:05 – Moped Culture: US vs. the World0:07 – The Scooter Armageddon (Bird & South by Southwest)0:09 – Working at Bird & the Wheelchair-Accessible Vehicle0:11 – Red Lights & "It's Not For Sale"0:13 – The Indiegogo Campaign ($920K in Hours)0:15 – Selling Onyx for $10:18 – Losing James & Resurrecting the Brand0:21 – Starting a Company Twice0:22 – The RCR 80V: Size, Speed & Power0:25 – Regulations & Licensing0:26 – Metal vs. Plastic: Design Philosophy0:28 – Built to Customize (Not Lock Down)0:31 – CarPlay, Navigation & Built-In Tech0:33 – Mounting Points, Mods & Steady Garage0:36 – Swappable Panels & Custom Builds0:40 – Favorite Mods: Back to the Future Build0:43 – The $245B Electric Vehicle Market0:46 – Gen Z Doesn't Want Cars0:49 – Park It on the Sidewalk (or Your Desk)0:52 – Speed Modes & Motorcycle Registration0:54 – What's Next for Onyx Motors0:56 – Where to Buy + OutroLINKSOnyx Motors → https://onyxmotors.comOnyx on Instagram → https://instagram.com/onyxmotorsSteady Garage (aftermarket accessories) → https://steadygarage.comOnyx Garage (custom builds gallery) → https://onyxmotors.com/pages/garageClick Here to Subscribe: FUTR.tv focuses on startups, innovation, culture and the business of emerging tech with weekly podcasts talking with Industry leaders and deep thinkers.Occasionally we share links to products we use.

The Navajo people, also called the Diné, are one of the largest Native American tribes in the United States. They have lived for centuries in the Southwest, in areas that are now Arizona, New Mexico, and Utah. The Navajo are known for their strong traditions, beautiful weaving, silver jewelry, and deep connection to the land. Family, storytelling, and respect for nature are central to Navajo life. Today, the Navajo Nation continues to preserve its language and culture while also living in the modern world.
