In this episode of KentNow, we cover major current events, important City of Kent updates, and a detailed conversation with Public Works leadership about the city's response to December's flooding. We begin with national headlines, including Seattle's trip to the Super Bowl and highlights from the newly announced Academy Award nominations. We also discuss recent issues impacting TikTok users, following the company's confirmation of a major infrastructure problem that disrupted features and content visibility for millions of users. From there, we turn to city business with an overview of Mayor Dana Ralph's 2025 Progress Report, which outlines Kent's accomplishments over the past year and the city's priorities for 2026, including flood resilience, public safety investments, and long-term planning for a stronger future. We also share an update on Kent 101, the City's nine-week civic education program that gives residents an inside look at how local government operates. Our featured interview includes Public Works Director Chad Bieren, Deputy Director Kelly Peterson and Dave Brock, and team member Mark Matitudus . They walk through how the city prepared for and responded to rising river levels, what made this storm different from typical winter events, and how departments coordinated in real time with regional and federal partners. The conversation highlights both the technical and human side of the response, including infrastructure monitoring, emergency decision-making, and the lessons being applied to future storm preparedness. We close with upcoming community events, including the Seattle Thunderbirds' “Battle of the Sound,” children's Crafternoon programs at the Kent Library, and the Spotlight Series performance by Gaden at the Kent-Meridian Performing Arts Center. The episode also features a brief piece of Seahawks-related Kent history, revisiting the story of Sir Winalot, the team's original mascot created by a Kent-Meridian High School teacher. This episode offers a look at what's happening now, how Kent responded to a major regional event, and what lies ahead for the community.

We're launching our Spotlight Series by revisiting the very first episode of the Acrobatic Arts Podcast, featuring Rick Tjia, dancer, choreographer, educator, and freelance casting director. This episode focuses on how teachers can help dancers leave a strong impression at auditions, support them after emotional outcomes, and guide them through video auditions clearly and professionally. Practical, direct, and immediately applicable for anyone supporting dancers on audition pathways. About Rick Tjia Rick's early training years began with tap dancing, eventually branching out into professional studies of classical ballet, jazz, hip-hop, and contemporary dance (training with teachers like David Howard, Finis Jhung, Christine Busch, Bruce Marks, Laura Young and Geri Houlihan). He also trained in other disciplines (trumpet, physics, and later on, guitar studies and various studies in business). After an extensive career in dance and acting that includes performances with Ballet Austin, Boston Ballet and Delta Festival Ballet, as well as three years of work in film and television in Los Angeles doing hip-hop, jazz, and ballet (with choreographers like Twyla Tharp, Joe Layton, and with film directors like Mark Rydell, and James Brooks), Rick joined La La La Human Steps in Montreal in 1993, with whom he danced and toured the world for 8 years. As with many dancers and musicians, Rick is also a composer, a dance and acrobatic choreographer, and judges dance competitions, and teaches various workshops around the globe. During his 16 years as a Talent Scout specializing in dance at Cirque du Soleil, Rick's contributions to the Casting Department also extended itself to contributing to and drawing up new operational and business strategies, as well as contributing to creative and innovative internal and external strategies of various types. ​Rick also works closely with International Performing Arts & Theatre (I-PATH) through leading dance education in the 21st Century. In 2016, he joined the creative team of the Cirque du Soleil Big Top touring show Volta as an acrobatic choreographer, and In 2018, he started up the online choreography market Choreography Online with two partners, which had its official public launch in September, 2019. Through Choreography Online he continues to cast for various live show and film projects, teach a Diploma in Choreography Program online, and manage Choreography Online's International Online Dance Competition. He is also an integral contributor to JamarGig, a new and innovative online casting and audition management system. Rick is also still a freelance casting director.

We continue our new Spotlight Series "Starfleet's Finest?" by jumping into Star Trek The Next Generation. The season 7 episode "Pegasus" gives us one of, perhaps the most toxic Admirals we will meet in our series, Admiral Erik Pressman. Coverups, intimidation, withholding information, and violations of long standing treaties are just some of the issues Admiral Pressman brings with him to the Enterprise. We Riker's past and the weight of his decisions catch up to him, ultimately affecting how Captain Picard views his first officer. This episode brings us everything this Spotlight Series is about....and more!

We continue our "Starfleet's Finest?" Spotlight Series with The Original Series episode "Court Martial". Our focus character for this episode is Commodore Stone who has the incredibly difficult task of being the Presiding Officer in the case of Captain Kirk versus the Enterprise's computer. Kirk's decision in the moment, which we are led to believe results in the death of a crewman, is picked a part in court due to the supposed overwhelming evidence from the computer showing the decision that he made. There's just one problem...Kirk is adamant that the computer is wrong. How does Commodore Stone handle the situation involving the Captain of the Starfleet's flagship? Is he able to stay objective in the face of uncertainty? We discuss all that and more!

What happens when you're overworked, underpaid, and about to settle for even less money just to survive? In this Success Spotlight episode, I sit down with my client Jessica, an ecologist who was dangerously close to applying for jobs paying $20-30K less than her previous salary until she decided to invest in herself instead.Jessica shares her raw journey from accepting "that's just how it is" in conservation work to landing a $40K raise and moving to her dream state. We unpack the exact moment she almost said yes to a job offering significantly less money, why her brain kept telling her to "just take anything," and the specific mindset shifts that changed everything. From hating networking to landing her role through an authentic July conversation that manifested months later, Jessica's story proves what's possible when you stop fighting for your limitations.Hear how she used the cocktail party method, managed her anxiety about the future, and why she says coaching gave her more results than years of therapy. If you're exhausted from the "numbers game" and wondering if you should just settle, this episode will show you there's another way.Get full show notes and more information here: https://www.asknataliefisher.com/episode-261

We're kicking off a new Spotlight Series entitled "Starfleet's Finest?". The title of our new series is a little bit misleading. Over the course of the new series, we will look at some of the best, and worst, that Starfleet has to offer. That's right we will be taking a look at some of the Admirals and Captains that made appearances across the Legacy Star Trek series (TOS-ENT), discussing their impact on the crew, leadership, individual character, morals/integrity and more. For the first episode in the new series we're starting with The Original Series episode Doomsday Machine, looking at Commodore Matthew Decker as he attempts to get revenge on the massive machine that not only destroyed entire worlds but killed his entire crew on the U.S.S. Constellation. During this series especially, we want to hear from you! Tell us your thoughts on each of the Admirals and Captains we highlight in each episode!
