Today's Headlines: Israel launched missile strikes on Syria's military HQ in Damascus, potentially destabilizing the new Syrian government amid talks to normalize relations. Despite the Trump administration's request to hold back, Israel is sending more troops to the border, citing threats to the Druze community. Meanwhile, Trump hosted Bahrain's crown prince, who pledged $17 billion in U.S. investments—though details were vague, aside from a symbolic model airplane. Trump also denied plans to fire Fed Chair Jerome Powell, despite telling Republicans otherwise, and floated the Fed's over-budget HQ renovations as a possible excuse. Separately, the administration fired federal prosecutor Maurene Comey—daughter of James Comey—who had handled the Epstein, Maxwell, and Diddy cases, offering no clear reason. Trump mocked his own supporters who believe Epstein conspiracy theories, calling them “weaklings,” while still refusing to release promised files. And in two more Trump-world twists: DHS deported five migrants to Eswatini, an African country none of them were from, and federal agents arrested nine anti-ICE protesters in Spokane. Lastly, $100 million worth of Trump memecoins are unlocking today, padding the president's net worth.

This is a Grave Talks CLASSIC EPISODE! When June Matthews found a charming fixer-upper just north of Spokane in 2010, it felt like the dream starter home—until she stepped into the basement. A heavy silence, an icy draft, and an inexplicable sense of being watched were the only flaws she could find, and she brushed them off as an overactive imagination. But within weeks of moving in, lights began to flicker, footsteps echoed where no one walked, and the basement door refused to stay closed. June never believed in the paranormal—until the house insisted she change her mind. Was this merely a creaky old home, or the beginning of a haunting in Washington?

BREAKING: ICE protesters in Spokane face federal indictments // What was the best moment of your life? // AGREE TO DISAGREE: Time to ban ice cream trucks? Time to get rid of Big Dumper? // WE HEAR YOU! and WORDS TO LIVE BY
(The Center Square) – Despite recording the second consecutive decline in homelessness since 2016, the Spokane City Council's conservative minority questioned that data on Monday – one of the two members had participated in the Point-in-Time Count last January, calling the feedback “unreliable.” The 2025 Point-in-Time Count released Monday recorded 1,806 people experiencing homelessness in January, a 10.6% dip compared to 2024. City staff were supposed to lead a committee meeting on Monday with the data but fell behind on the agenda, citing last-minute changes they made that morning.

More details here: https://bit.ly/44jFjqmThe free version of the 324th episode of Investing in Bizarro World is now published.Here's what was covered:Macro Musings - Gerardo pulled on the “supply & demand” hoodie, and Nick showed why it's more than a fashion statement. With a fresh multi-trillion-dollar bill that Trump wants signed on July 4th—because of course—the dollar's tanking, the debt's exploding, and inflation isn't done with us yet. Ray Dalio's math says we're headed for “big painful disruptions.” Gerardo and Nick explain why that's bullish for gold, copper, and popcorn (seriously—$89 buckets are coming).Market Takes - Copper's still above $5, lithium is quietly waking up, and platinum just had its best monthly move in 40 years. The NASDAQ and S&P are calm, but don't confuse quiet indices with a healthy economy. Gerardo and Nick are eyeing the real signal. “It's not a complicated thesis,” Gerardo says. “You just have to know what you own.” A new copper deal is dropping next week. Nick and Gerardo walk through the behind-the-scenes work it took to secure an unusually favorable structure: strategic investors, a 12-month lock-up, over $100M in potential partner funding, and a massive land position in Australia's Macquarie Arc. This is the kind of deal where legends like Rick Rule are writing checks—and it's coming to subscribers first. Join Private Placement Intel to participate in the deal next week. Details here: https://bit.ly/44jFjqmBizarro Banter - From AI anime YouTube channels with 30M followers to Google buying nuclear fusion power that doesn't exist yet, the guys riff on the weird intersection of technology, media, and energy. Nick also drops a righteous rant on local politics, semantics, and why Spokane's city council should stop serving hot dogs and calling them hamburgers. Gerardo weighs in on the Lia Thomas ruling and says what most people are thinking but too afraid to say: you can respect someone's identity and still want fairness in women's sports. Nick breaks it down with Pew poll data, Orwell quotes, and a reminder that logic is not bigotry. “You're born either male or female. That's not politics—it's biology.”Premium Portfolio Picks - For paid listeners only.

“We're often put in positions that make us uncomfortable with the inner struggle of how to keep our job and have our program recognized enough to get support versus how to carry out our true mission with students. If I'm trying to continue to fall in love with the choral art, I think the way to do that is looking for literature that will balance the soul-searching and academic needs of the students and the entertaining needs of the audiences. Looking for literature for all of those reasons often reignites my own curiosity and interest.”Dr. Kristina Ploeger-Hekmatpanah is a Full Professor of Music serving as Director of Choral Activities and Undergraduate Music Education at Eastern Washington University. She has earned degrees from Edmonds Community College, Central Washington University, Eastern Washington University, and the University of Kentucky. She was the Artistic Director of the Spokane Area Youth Choirs, and the Director of Spokane Symphony's Chorale & Chamber Choir. Previously in Spokane, Kristina taught Choral Methods at Gonzaga University, observed student teachers for Whitworth College, and taught Middle School Choir at St. George's School and High School Choir at West Valley High School in the Spokane Valley. Before moving to the Spokane area, she taught at Everett HS, Ephrata HS, and AC Davis HS. Kristina has served on the WA ACDA Board as an R&S chair in world music, children's chorus, university, and jazz, and is the current President-Elect of WA ACDA. She has presented numerous times for state and all-northwest MENC/WMEA conventions and twelve WA-ACDA Summer Institutes. Directing Honor Groups and All-State Choirs in Washington, Oregon, Idaho, Montana, and Kentucky, from Elementary through High School levels; as well as presenting at festivals and conferences in WA, MA, OR, ID, FL, and KY has given her the opportunity to work with a wonderful array of choristers and directors. The Spokane Arts Commission of the City of Spokane has awarded Kristina the “Arts in Education Award,” and the “Arts Organization Award” for her work with the Spokane Area Children's Chorus. Kristina also received Spokane's “YWCA Woman of Achievement in Arts and Culture Award.”To get in touch with Kristina, you can e-mail her at kploeger@ewu.edu.Email choirfampodcast@gmail.com to contact our hosts.Podcast music from Podcast.coPhoto in episode artwork by Trace Hudson

A culinary road trip across America reveals the heart and soul behind three of this season's Great American Recipe contestants on PBS, each bringing their unique cultural heritage and personal journeys to the kitchen.(00:35) From the warm hospitality of Durham, North Carolina, Fran Wescott welcomes us into her Southern kitchen where traditional local ingredients meet global influences. "I am, at heart, a Southern cook, but I've got all these layers on top," she explains, describing how travel and cultural exploration have transformed her approach to cooking. Fran's Summer Vegetable Orzo with White Pesto perfectly demonstrates her layered culinary philosophy while highlighting her belief that meals are as much about gathering around the table as they are about the food itself.(13:01) The journey continues to Columbus, Ohio, where Filipino-American Rex Alba balances the rich, flavorful traditions of his homeland with his passion for fitness as a former American Ninja Warrior contestant. Rex's Bistek Tagalog recipe offers a window into authentic Filipino cuisine with its tangy soy-calamansi marinade and red onion rings, while his story reveals the personal motivation behind his health journey. (23:41) Our final destination takes us to Spokane, Washington, where Suwanee Lennon's extraordinary story unfolds. From growing up in a Thai leprosy village to coming to America alone at age 13, Suwanee's resilience shines through in her innovative cooking. Her Thai Basil Pesto brilliantly fuses Eastern and Western culinary traditions, complete with her expert tip to use the often-discarded basil flowers for maximum flavor. These three home cooks represent the mosaic of American cuisine – where traditional recipes evolve through migration, adaptation, and personal experience. Be sure to follow their culinary journeys and discover more recipes that tell America's diverse food story. Season 4 of The Great American Recipe premiers July 11th, 2025 on local PBS stations and streaming on the PBS app. Support the showLiked the episode? We'd love a coffee!
K-State women's basketball alum/legend Serena Sundell & her Spokane team is headed to Edmonton to continue their summer basketball tournament next month!
(The Center Square) – After 35 years, the Pediatric Interim Care Center in Kent – the only specialized medical facility in western Washington caring for drug-exposed babies – stopped accepting new intakes on Monday. That's because the Department of Children, Youth & Families canceled its contract with the Pediatric Interim Care Center, or PICC, citing state budget cuts.
We welcome back comedian, author, and former Chelsea Lately star Sarah Colonna for a no-holds-barred Part 2. From influencer lists to psychic warnings, nothing's off-limits. We start by comparing notes on being left out of influencer trips while Sarah confesses, she just came back for another coffee reading. “I just wanted a second opinion,” she laughs. The gang dives into “Haute Topics,” debating Kelsey Grammer welcoming baby number eight at 70. We react to The Chrisleys pardoned by Trump after stealing millions. “How do they get picked over people in for petty crimes?” Sarah wonders. Patrik sums it up: “Best friends with the president.” Next, we rave about Jeremy Allen White (Sarah's Shameless co-star) starring as Bruce Springsteen in a new biopic. Sarah shares she met him at table reads and jokes she wants to cameo as Courtney Cox in the “Dancing in the Dark” video. They debate whether Jeremy can sing or not. On Runway Rundown, the critiques get spicy. Chelsea Handler's silver strapless gown draws mixed reviews—Patrik calls it “prom 1975,” while Sarah defends her ex-boss: “I think it looks good on her!” Elsa Hosk's sheer, couture Cannes gown blows them away: “This is the definition of slay.” Kristen Stewart's cream shorts suit sparks debate over proportions and those controversial bobby socks. When Sarah's own red satin top appears on screen, Patrik calls it “Halloween gone bad.” She promises never to wear it again. In between fashion roasts, they commiserate over self-tape auditions. Patrik groans about taping for parts like crack dealers, plastic-surgery addicts, and porn-star managers. Sarah admits she prefers professional taping studios because filming with her husband is “a recipe for divorce.” Then it's time for Pol's coffee reading—Sarah's main reason for showing up again. He sees: A person close to her (with a “J” in the name) who pretends to be supportive but is actually jealous and waiting for the right moment to sabotage her. A project she's put aside that will unite her stand-up, writing, and acting—her real path forward. A future trip that will be canceled, and she shouldn't force it (“You'll find out later you weren't supposed to go.”). Sarah looks stunned: “I think I know who this is.” They play a game of “Sarah Colonna: Chelsea Lately or Football Wife?” recalling whether she ever flashed an audience (she didn't), spilled a drink on the owner's shoes (also didn't), or got mistaken for a cheerleader (sadly, no). They giggle about Snow White 90210 being called “Little Thunder” at football games. Sarah shares memories of her worst commercial—a Home Depot ad shot near the airport with no AC. “They were mad I was sweating in July!” she recalls. They laugh about how she still does self-tapes, though she'd rather be in the room getting feedback. Wrapping up, Sarah talks about her live shows in Oregon, San Antonio, Las Vegas, Tacoma, and Spokane.

Step into a journey that spans basalt canyons, coastal waters and city streets—where listening becomes not just a practice but a way of belonging. In this episode of Power of Place, we walk alongside Father Pat Twohy, a Jesuit priest and poet whose five decades of ministry with Native communities across the Pacific Northwest have shaped a unique place-rooted path of service. We travel with him from Spokane to Nespelem where he's welcomed through wakes, family meals and slow-built trust. We join him at Swinomish and on the Salish Sea, celebrating ancestral canoe journeys and welcoming the first salmon. In Seattle he walks with the urban Native community at Chief Seattle Club and helps establish the Indigenous Peoples Institute at Seattle University. Along the way we hear the archival voice of his teacher, Lushootseed language keeper Vi Hilbert, alongside contemporary reflections from elders and leaders including Shelly Vendiola (Swinomish), Teri Gobin (Tulalip) and Darrell Hillaire (Lummi). This is not a story of conversion but of transformation: through ceremony, companionship and the sacred act of listening. And as we listen we're offered the same invitation—to learn from Native people, to be shaped by their wisdom and—like Father Pat—to walk away changed. “You have an ability to osmosis, I think. And I sort of inhale it. It sort of becomes part of me. Soaking it in without having to say anything or not performing anything. Just taking it in; receiving as much as I can possibly receive. And they knew that about me. And eventually, they spoon-feed me, a little bit at a time.” ~Father Patrick Twohy, S.J.

It happens in Washington D.C. all the time but also in state legislatures, political decisions are often made down the party lines with members voting with the official policy or opinion of one's political party. What happens when those policies work for cities but not for the rural districts of a state? That challenge could not be showcased better than in Washington State, which ranks second in the nation for agricultural production but also has cities like Seattle and Spokane to care for. FOX's Tonya J. Powers speaks with Washington State Senator Drew MacEwen (R) who says there is a balancing act in meeting the needs and interests of rural areas in a state and its cities, and he also shares plenty of reasons to visit his beautiful state.
