Jonathan Greene sits down with self-storage investor and operator Joe Downs, CEO of Bellrose Storage Group, which sources, acquires, and manages self-storage facilities across the East and Southeast. With a background in commercial real estate, capital raising, and distressed second mortgages, Joe explains how he pivoted into self-storage after discovering just how mom-and-pop dominated and under-optimized the space really was. Their conversation explores why self-storage is still far from "too late," how technology and remote management have transformed operations, and why small, overlooked facilities under 30,000 square feet can be a goldmine for investors willing to modernize them. Joe also breaks down creative plays like boat and RV storage, industrial outdoor storage, and converting large vacant retail boxes into multi-revenue storage campuses. Listeners will come away with a grounded understanding of why self-storage is such a powerful niche, what to look for in a mom-and-pop facility, and how to avoid overpaying by underwriting expenses correctly. Joe and Jonathan also discuss the importance of relationships and "caretaker" mentality with long-time owners, the role of SBA loans, and how to keep shiny object syndrome in check while still recognizing adjacent opportunities. In this episode, you will hear: How Joe went from distressed debt and 1031 capital raising to building a self-storage platform Why self-storage is still largely mom-and-pop owned and what that means for opportunity How technology, remote management, and autopay have transformed facility operations What to look for in a first small storage acquisition and how to approach owners as a "caretaker" The importance of underwriting real expenses (marketing, tech, management) so you don't overpay Creative self-storage derivatives, including boat and RV storage, IOS, and big-box retail conversions Follow and Review If you enjoy the show, please follow Zen and the Art of Real Estate Investing on Apple Podcasts and leave a rating and review.

Amazon has initiated legal action against Perplexity AI, alleging that the startup's AI browser improperly accesses Amazon customer accounts by mimicking human browsing behavior. The lawsuit, filed in the U.S. District Court for the Northern District of California, raises concerns about security risks associated with Perplexity's Comet browser. Amazon claims that this practice undermines customer experience and its curated shopping services. In response, Perplexity asserts that Amazon is leveraging its market dominance to stifle competition, emphasizing that user credentials are stored locally and not on their servers.In a related development, Microsoft researchers have introduced a new simulation environment called the Magentic Marketplace, aimed at evaluating the performance of AI agents. This initiative, developed in collaboration with Arizona State University, highlights vulnerabilities in current agentic models, particularly their ability to operate unsupervised and respond to complex scenarios. Initial experiments revealed that as customer agents faced increased options, their efficiency declined due to information overload, raising concerns about the practical application of AI agents in real-world settings.Additional updates include Netrix Global's acquisition of Ricoh's U.S. IT services business, marking Ricoh's exit from the managed services sector. This acquisition is expected to enhance Netrix's offerings and geographic reach, particularly in the Northeast and Southeast regions of the United States. Furthermore, several product announcements aimed at improving operational efficiency for MSPs were made, including Movila's Project Hub for project management and Huntress's support for Cybersecurity Maturity Model Certification compliance.For MSPs and IT service leaders, these developments underscore the importance of governance and compliance in the deployment of AI technologies. The legal dispute between Amazon and Perplexity highlights the need for clarity around user data handling and the implications of automated systems. Additionally, the acquisition of Ricoh's IT services by Netrix serves as a reminder of the challenges in the managed services market, emphasizing the necessity for specialization and operational efficiency.

This is the Christian's Hour. TCH is a ministry of Gospel Broadcasting Mission.So, Thanksgiving. While it officially became a National Holiday in 1863 it is said it traces its origins to 1621 or even earlier. I would imagine that no matter when it was first celebrated; it came out of a deep-rooted sense of gratitude that was more than a one day or one meal sort of thing. Today, sometimes it seems the Holiday is tied more to family gatherings and meals. Maybe it's time for a “course correction” to get back to our roots of giving thanks to; God?!This month, our speaker, Bob Russell, is helping us with an “Thanksgiving Season - Heart Check” to help us prepare for a more meaningful Thanksgiving. Bob Russell is a retired senior minister of Southeast Christian Church in Louisville, Kentucky, where he served for 40 years as “Southeast” became one of the largest churches in America. As a country, America has much to be thankful for, but as a whole we don't show it much. In the Bible, God's people, the Israelites, shared a similar affliction.

If you have kids, shopping for shoes can be frustrating.  Finding something affordable, stylish, and durable is the quest. As I've discovered through the years, even if you don't have children, it's still a challenge. I've never enjoyed it, whether it was for me or my wife. I've spent my fair share of time in shoe stores, trying to help them sell products, not as a salesman, but as a radio personality. The other day, I saw an ad for the Shoe Carnival, a store that's been around throughout the Southeast and Midwest for decades.

High Rise Beverage co-founder Matt Skinner has built a coastal-themed brand in the Southeast but his ambitions extend across the nation.    The Charleston, South Carolina-headquartered intoxicating hemp beverage brand is now available in 22 states, and Skinner sees an opportunity to go even bigger.   "We're in the space of being a nationwide brand at this point," he says on the latest edition of the Brewbound Podcast, recorded in October at the National Beer Wholesalers Association's Annual Convention in Las Vegas.    "Having those partnerships and getting in with the right distributors now is important. They're finding who they feel like their horses are in the category, and I think we are aligning across the country with that. But the Southeast is very important to us."     Skinner shares his strategy of building the brand in bars and restaurants and why his pitch to those retailers was bigger than his brand. He also explains how High Rise came to be partners with Sony Music in Nashville, which flavors are resonating with consumers and why Target's adoption of intoxicating hemp products "puts all eyes on the category."   Before the interview, Justin and Zoe discuss the latest news, such as New Belgium's packed new product slate for 2026, including new Voodoo Ranger IPAs and a canned cocktail offshoot, as well as Molson Coors' tough Q3 earnings report.

What followed was an unexpected journey into spirituality, meditation, and ultimately, retraining as an integrative psychotherapist. Now she works predominantly with dentists and other professionals who've achieved everything they thought they wanted but still feel lost, anxious, and burnt out.

Steady Hiring and Strong Contract Extensions in Q3 as Budget Buckles Pay Expectations

New data from Matrix Recruitment for Q3 2025 has revealed that workers in Ireland are prioritising stability, flexibility, autonomy, upskilling, and culture despite economic uncertainty and geopolitical unrest. Despite a seasonal slowdown in manufacturing and construction, finance, healthcare, and engineering remained resilient. Contract and temporary role renewals soared, signalling a "wait-and-see" approach taken by employers awaiting the 2026 Budget, which was announced on October 7. "Employers are now taking stock," says Breda Dooley, Head of Recruitment at Matrix Recruitment. "They're managing costs, protecting key skills, and focusing on retention. It's more of a recalibration built around flexibility and foresight than a hiring freeze from what we've seen." Contract Economy Continued The Matrix Recruitment data confirms that contract and temporary extensions increased during the third quarter, particularly within the finance, engineering, and healthcare sectors. "Contracting is a deliberate strategy," Breda explains. "It allows employers to maintain output, manage uncertainty, and respond quickly to project demand without getting locked into long-term commitments with new permanent contracts." Workers are reaping the rewards of contract work, with experienced contractors leveraging the renewed demand for flexible expertise with strong daily rates and a balanced work schedule being an attractive draw. This all leads to a more agile labour market that supports the business continuity and workers alike. Long-term Strategy Employers were also seen to be shifting focus from external acquisition to internal development. This involves upskilling and mobility programmes, which have rapidly become a critical retention tool. "Companies that invest in their people through structured learning and recognition are seeing measurable improvements in morale and performance," agrees Breda. "Upskilling is not just a training exercise; it's a long-term competitiveness strategy." Matrix Recruitment notes that many organisations are introducing career-path frameworks and mentorship schemes, particularly at the mid-management level. Breda noted that this area is where turnover has been most acute. This also backs succession planning and lessens the need for short-term cover. Candidate Priorities Hybrid and remote arrangements are increasingly being viewed as standard expectations rather than optional benefits, says Breda, who warns that employers who can accommodate flexible patterns are outperforming competitors in both attraction and retention. "Work-life balance is now a key currency," Breda explains. "Candidates are prioritising shorter commutes, hybrid options, and supportive cultures over headline salary figures. Companies that recognise this are securing better talent and higher acceptance rates." Even as salary inflation eases, benefits packages, wellbeing initiatives, and authentic workplace culture remain critical to secure top-tier performers. Regional Outlook Matrix's regional offices in Waterford, Carlow, and Athlone report particularly strong engagement among mid-level professionals looking for hybrid roles close to home. The Midlands and Southeast continue to attract investment in logistics, renewable energy, and advanced manufacturing, supporting job creation in comparison to Dublin's crowded job market. That said, the financial, legal, and tech sectors saw a mild slowdown versus Q2. "This was due to several multinational companies pausing their expansion," explains Breda. "Nevertheless, according to our data, regional recruitment sentiment remains stable as we approach year-end." 2026 Roadmap Matrix Recruitment anticipates a late-year uptick in hiring across supply chain, finance, and healthcare. According to the data, a balanced hiring market is predicted for 2026, with moderate growth predicted across professional services, life sciences, and infrastructure. However, there will be heightened competition for highly skille...

It's Tuesday, November 4th, A.D. 2025. This is The Worldview in 5 Minutes heard on 140 radio stations and at www.TheWorldview.com.  I'm Adam McManus. (Adam@TheWorldview.com) By Kevin Swanson Trump adds Nigeria as Country of Particular Concern The President of the United States announced Friday that Nigeria will be added to the State Department's list of Countries of Particular Concern in regards to Christian persecution, reports ABC News. A "Country of Particular Concern" is a designation given by the U.S. government to a country that has engaged in or tolerated "systematic, ongoing, and egregious violations of religious freedom.” This designation, made by the President or Secretary of State under the International Religious Freedom Act, indicates severe religious freedom violations like torture, prolonged detention for religious reasons, or religiously inspired murder. A Country of Particular Concern designation can lead to diplomatic pressure or economic sanctions. Trump threatens Nigerian Islamic terrorists with swift justice President Trump added this passionate statement to his Truth Social on Sunday.  He wrote, “If the Nigerian Government continues to allow the killing of Christians, the U.S.A. will immediately stop all aid and assistance to Nigeria, and may very well go into that now disgraced country, ‘guns-a-blazing,' to completely wipe out the Islamic Terrorists who are committing these horrible atrocities.  “I am hereby instructing our Department of War to prepare for possible action. If we attack, it will be fast, vicious, and sweet, just like the terrorist thugs attack our CHERISHED Christians! WARNING: THE NIGERIAN GOVERNMENT BETTER MOVE FAST!” In response, Secretary of War Pete Hegseth said on X, "The killing of innocent Christians in Nigeria, and anywhere, must end immediately. The Department of War is preparing for action. Either the Nigerian government protects Christians, or we will kill the Islamic terrorists who are committing these horrible atrocities.” Last month, Republican Senator Ted Cruz of Texas commented on X that "Officials in Nigeria are ignoring and even facilitating the mass murder of Christians by Islamist jihadists.” Mainstream media outlets sidestep Nigerian genocide In recent news reports, the Associated Press, the Washington Post, the New York Times, and other mainstream media sources continue ignoring, minimizing, or outright rejecting the world's most egregious genocide at present -- the mass killing of Christians in Nigeria, Africa. At the same time, Genocide Watch has issued a “Genocide Emergency” for Nigeria —citing the mass slayings of Christians.   The organization considers Nigeria to have entered what they call Stage 9: Extermination and Stage 10: Denial — with this particular genocide.  Over the last 15 years, a report from the International Society for Religious Liberties and the Rule of Law counts 189,000 Nigerians slaughtered in cold blood by radical Muslims, of which 125,000 plus were Christians.   In addition, 19,100 churches were destroyed, and more than 1,100 Christian communities sacked. Nigerian Bishop upset that some deny there's a Christian genocide Bishop David Abioye of the Nigerian Conqueror Global Assembly spoke recently of the genocide, correcting what he called “the distortion of truth.” ABIOYE: “There's a lot of distortion going on. People claiming that there is no genocide of Christians in the nation. You see people buried [by the] hundreds, and you say there is no genocide. What a wicked set of people. I agree there are people killed in other place for other reasons.  “But this one is very clear, and gradually it's eating down to the South, Southwest, Southeast. Many so-called leaders, for their personal interest, are claiming it's not true, selling out their faith, if they have it at all.” Romans 13 calls the ruler or president “God's minister to you for good,” noting “he does not bear the sword in vain; for he is God's minister, an avenger to execute wrath on him who practices evil.”  Texas Supreme Court allows judges not to perform homosexual weddings Is Obergefell on ice?   That's the 2015 Supreme Court ruling which purportedly legalized same-sex mirage in this country.  The Texas Supreme Court has ruled that judges who refuse to perform homosexual faux marriage ceremonies will no longer face disciplinary action for their decisions, reports The Christian Post. This comes right as the US Supreme Court will be discussing the same issue, scheduled for this Friday. Kim Davis, the former Kentucky county clerk, has appealed her case, where she was convicted for refusing to issue marriage licenses to homosexual couples after the Obergefell decision came down in 2015. Reformed pastor arrested for soliciting prostitutes A Presbyterian Church in America pastor from Tulsa, Oklahoma has been arrested on charges of soliciting prostitutes, reports ChurchLeaders.com. Jeremy Fair, senior pastor of Christ Presbyterian Church, was one of five men implicated in a sting operation. The church has placed the pastor on indefinite leave, according to a statement issued by the session. U.S. government shutdown about to become longest in history The current American government shutdown is about to round its fifth week, or 35th day.  If the shutdown continues through tomorrow, this will be the longest in U.S. history — exceeding the record set during the first Trump administration in 2019. Because of the ongoing financial crisis, President Donald Trump is urging the Senate Republicans to scrap the 60-vote filibuster threshold in favor of the simple-majority passage of legislation. However, on Monday, Senate Majority Leader John Thune said there's not enough support among Republican senators to eliminate the filibuster, reports Politico.com.  However, Senator Thune did express optimism about the Senate's resolution of the shutdown this week, reports CBS News. Trump admin will partially fund November food stamps On Monday, the Trump administration agreed to move billions of emergency dollars to partially pay for food aid this month in response to a federal judge's order, though some families may not receive benefits for weeks, according to Politico.com. Officials will use $4.65 billion from the USDA's contingency fund to support roughly half of food stamp participants' “current allotments” as the shutdown drags on, according to a new legal filing. Help victims of Hurricane Melissa in Jamaica, Cuba, and Haiti Late last week, Category-5 Hurricane Melissa clobbered Jamaica, Cuba, and Haiti, leveling whole towns, and killing 67 people, 32 of whom were in Jamaica, reports NBC News.

Send us a textHoliday magic is better when it has a mission. We pull back the curtain on the Ron Myers Christmas City Gift Show and trace its unlikely rise from a post–Air Force leap of faith to a 42-year Gulf Coast tradition that funds ministries, lifts small businesses, and welcomes thousands into a thoughtfully designed shopping experience.We start with the spark: a first-time event that proved ideas can move people, then the steady steps that followed—flea markets, a seasonal pivot, and a prayerful leap to the Mississippi Coast Coliseum. Along the way, we break down what makes Christmas City work at scale: 300+ curated booths, Breakfast with Santa for families, and the adults-only Shopper's Paradise with live music, wine, and a relaxed pace. Even operational tweaks like widening aisles in 2020 turned a crisis constraint into a permanent comfort, reshaping how guests browse, connect with vendors, and make memories.Beyond the booths, we explore impact. Christmas City helps fund Ron Myers Ministries, supporting Christian rehab centers, anti-trafficking efforts, missions, and values-driven media. It also delivers a timely economic boost after the summer season, filling hotels and restaurants and earning recognition as a top 20 tourism event in the Southeast. Vendors benefit from curation that values quality and variety, a selection process that raises the bar, and a community vibe that turns door prizes and promo exchanges into shared momentum.Threaded through the story is a clear throughline of faith, perseverance, and purpose. Ron talks candidly about setbacks—from hurricanes to pandemics—and the steady commitment that kept the vision alive. For entrepreneurs and dreamers, this is a blueprint: start where you are, serve people well, and build systems that honor both experience and impact.Subscribe, share this with a friend who loves meaningful holiday traditions, and leave a review to help others find the show.

Cultivating Place

This week we finish up Artober on CP, in conversation with artist, Mary Jackson, a renowned sweetgrass basket weaver known for combining traditional methods with contemporary designs.  Based in the Low Country of South Carolina, Mary is the descendant of generations of Gullah basket weavers. Born in 1945, in 2008, Mary was awarded a MacArthur Foundation fellowship (“Genius Grant”) for "pushing the centuries-old tradition in stunning new directions”.  From the 1970s through to the early 2000s, Mary became something of an accidental Gardener, environmental restorationist, and economic driver, when she recognized the dwindling supply and access to the signature native sweetgrass that her cultural art and tradition relied on. This diminishing resource was due in part to booming development along the U.S. Southeast coasts, the fragmentation and destruction of delicate coastal ecosystems, and the increasing exclusion of Gullah basketmakers from traditional harvest sites. Mary took it on herself to organize the basketmaking community, and working in collaboration with this community and Robert DuFault, of the Clemson University Department of Biological Sciences, her initiative led work to secure sustainable availability and access to native sweetgrass (Muhlenbergia sp.) for the traditional basket makers, and future of this traditional art, craft, and cultural symbol. Gullah Sweetgrass baskets are an over 400-year tradition in the U.S. Southeast, first as a highly prized skill and centuries, if not millennia-old, passed-down knowledge of enslaved West Africans being brought to the colonies. These skills and knowledge directly contributed to the success specifically of rice farming in the region, where highly developed and precisely crafted utilitarian baskets were used for everything from carrying, harvesting, winnowing, to fine household tasks.  Gullah Sweetgrass Baskets are a continued symbol of the City of Charleston, South Carolina, and for over a century, these skilled artists and their basketry have been an economic and cultural mainstay in the region. All depending on healthy and abundant native sweetgrass, palmetto, and loblolly or longleaf pine ecosystems and supply. The “access” Mary catalyzed in response to this contraction of the health and supply of sweetgrass ultimately included: research into successful germination of sweetgrass at scale and teaching basket makers how to grow sweetgrass at home; the enventual introduction of Muhlenbergia species to the plant and garden trade, making it now a staple of the ornamental grass and native plant movements; large-scale plantings of the grasses on private and public grounds with permission for basketmakers to harvest and tend; and, finally, Army Corps of Engineers and coastal developments working to replant and restorate inter-tidal beach dunes with the stabilizing native sweetgrass.  All of this from one woman's impulse to cultivate plants with an eye to protecting the legacy of her people, and the future of their craft. Now an elder, Mary agreed to be one of the interview subjects of our 10 Cultivating Place Live events in 2024 and 2025. For the CP LIVE events, which will be included in the final Cultivating Place: The Power of Gardeners documentary film series, Jennifer interviewed Mary Jackson, Robert Dufault, and next-generation artist and Sweetgrass basket leader, Corey Alston in front of a public audience in Theodora Park, Charleston, SC. This week's podcast conversation was an interview with just Mary and Jennifer filmed and recorded live by EM EN in Mary's Studio, on John's Island, outside of Charleston. Enjoy!

 Today on Consuming the Craft, I sat down with Brian Simpson, CEO of Riverbend Malt House, to explore the fascinating evolution of craft malt in the southeast. We covered Riverbend's journey from a modest basement setup in 2010 to a dynamic operation producing unique and locally sourced malts for breweries and distilleries across the country. I poured Brian a special whiskey from Oak and Grist, made with peach wood smoked pilsner malt from Riverbend, sparking a deep dive into the nuances of smoked malts, wood selection, collaboration with local farmers, and the influence of southern terroir on flavor. We discussed industry trends, new grain varieties, regulatory changes, and the powerful role of innovation in the craft beverage scene. Brian Simpson is at the helm of Riverbend Malt House, the pioneering Asheville-based craft maltster dedicated to bringing local grains into the hands of southern brewers and distillers. Since 2010, Brian has led Riverbend's transformation, supporting research efforts, working with breeders and farmers, and experimenting with new malting techniques and materials. Riverbend's malts have contributed to award-winning beers and spirits, and Brian's passion for innovation continues to drive the industry forward—whether it's through peach wood smoked whiskey, custom malt batches, or supporting the next wave of craft beverages. “We really only had six row barleys... mostly for animal feed. Our whole ‘malt with a mission' was to bring agriculture back into craft beer.” ~Brian Simpson This Week on Consuming the Craft: ·     Riverbend Malt House started in 2010, initially focusing on proving craft malt could be made from southern-grown grains.·     The region's transition from only animal-feed barley to diverse, high-quality brewing and distilling varieties involved close partnerships with breeders and farmers.·     Smoking malt with different woods, such as peach wood, creates uniquely Southern flavor profiles, especially in spirits and specialty beers.·     Collaborations, like Oak and Grist's peach wood-smoked whiskey, showcase the power of local malt and creative partnerships.·     The craft malt industry is watching for regulatory trends, including the potential U.S. adoption of glycosidic nitrile limits and concerns about ethyl carbomate.·     There's growing demand in the south for distillers' malt, high-enzyme, fast-fermentation varieties suitable for whiskey production.·     New and alternative grains like Kernza, millet, and buckwheat present technical challenges but offer gluten-free options and environmental benefits.·     The craft beverage industry's best chance for survival lies in providing experiences, agility, and inventive offerings rather than just chasing trends.

What's keeping hunters from funding conservation — and why Michigan's future depends on fixing it. The Sportsmen's Voice Roundup this week dives into one of the most important (and overlooked) aspects of wildlife conservation: how we fund it. Bob Matthews joins the show to break down Michigan Senate Bills 276 and 277, a pair of measures aimed at securing long-term conservation funding through smarter hunting license and tag fee structures. Matthews explains how these bills would modernize the state's reimbursement framework, ensuring the Michigan Department of Natural Resources (DNR) can continue managing wildlife, habitats, and public lands effectively. From license reforms to senior discounts, the conversation pulls back the curtain on how small policy details can make or break conservation success. Then, Fred shifts the focus to the Southeast, where outdated Sunday hunting restrictions still keep thousands of outdoorsmen out of the woods and cost critical dollars for habitat work. Together, the team unpacks the tension between access, tradition, and modern conservation funding, challenging listeners to rethink who really pays to protect the outdoors we all enjoy. Whether you hunt, fish, or just care about wild places, this episode offers a candid look at the policies shaping our shared future outdoors.   Get the FREE Sportsmen's Voice e-publication in your inbox every Monday: www.congressionalsportsmen.org/newsletter   Follow The Sportsmen's Voice wherever you get your podcasts: https://podfollow.com/1705085498  Learn more about your ad choices.

Solomon wrote: Anger is cruel and fury overwhelming, but who can stand before jealousy (Proverbs 27:4). Who indeed? Fran is discovering just how dangerous it is to work with a jealous coworker. A woman named Jenny transferred to Fran's office and accepted a lower position. She has become more and more vocal about how over-qualified she is for her job. Today Fran and her good friend, Louise, are walking to the cafeteria when Jenny walks in behind them. Fran and Louise have tried unsuccessfully to be friendly to Jenny, but they try once again. “Want to join us for lunch?” Louise asks. “Yeah, why not,” Jenny responds. As they sit down to eat, Jenny says to Fran, “You had a presentation today, didn't you, Fran?” “Yeah, we're trying to get the Edwards Construction account,” Fran replies. Jenny says, “I landed the largest construction company in the Southeast when I worked in Atlanta, you know.” Fran can feel the anger start to creep up within her. She sends up a wordless prayer before she responds. “I wish I had known, Jenny. I could have used your help.” “Well, they should have let me have that account,” Jenny says. “I've got the experience that would have guaranteed we would get it. How did the presentation go?” It's all Fran can do to answer Jenny with a civil tone of voice. “I really couldn't tell. They said it would be a week before they decide.” Louise is angry, too, and she just can't sit there without defending her friend. She says, “I can assure you, if anyone can get that account, Fran can. I'm sure you did a great job, Fran.” Jenny laughs and says, “Well, Louise, I'd expect you to say that about your good friend, but I'm looking at it from a business perspective. With my experience, I would have done a better job.” “Excuse me,” Louise retorts, “but that's your opinion and you ought to keep it to yourself.” “Oh, Louise, don't take everything so personal. I'm just saying it like it is,” Jenny replies. “I call that rude,” Louise says. “Hey,” Fran interjects, “this conversation is getting out of hand. Thanks for your loyalty, Louise, but Jenny has a right to her opinion. Maybe we better get back to work.” As they start to leave, Jenny says, “You know, it's stupid for women to be so emotional about these things. I'm just talking business, and you two keep taking it personal.” Fran and Louise walk away without another word to Jenny, but steam is coming out of Louise's ears. “Can you believe that woman? She's just jealous of you, Fran.” And jealousy can be dangerous.

REBROADCAST: PNW organization emphasizes lacrosse's Indigenous roots

 Indigenous tribes in what is now the northeastern U.S. and Canada have played lacrosse for millennia. Similar stick-and-ball games were played by tribes across the Southeast and Great Lakes region. But according to NCAA data, less than 1% of college lacrosse players are American Indian or Alaskan Native, and more than 80% are white.   Pacific Northwest Native Lacrosse is trying to change that. As reported in Willamette Week, the organization recruits Indigenous lacrosse players from across the PNW to participate in tournaments, youth camps and clinics.   We listen back to a conversation we first aired in March 2025 with JD Elquist,  the founder of PNWNL. We also spoke with Bilįį Blackhorn, who was then a senior at South Eugene High School and who has played lacrosse for 10 years, including with PNWNL. They joined us to talk about the importance of emphasizing the sport’s Indigenous roots.
