In this episode, John and Mike visit one of their favorite annual Mustang club shows, the Great Lakes Stampede All-Ford & Mustang Car Show, hosted by the Mustang Club of Mid Michigan (MCMM). This event marked the public debut of the Mustang Owner's Podcast 10x10 Meet & Greet tent display, where the boys featured not one, but TWO celebrity guests – Bud Magaldi, chief designer and styling design manager of the Fourth Generation (SN95) 1994 Mustang, and Emeline King, the interior designer of that same Fourth Generation (SN95) 1994 Mustang. Bud and Emeline chatted with attendees and signed autographs while Emeline also offered a book-signing for her inspirational softcover autobiography, “What Do You Mean A Black Girl Can't Design Cars? Emeline King, She Did It! (still available on Amazon).This year the MCMM moved its show venue to the Birch Run Speedway after several years at the nearby Outlet Mall. Clouds, wind and eventual rain may have affected the turnout a bit, but John and Mike were amazed by how many different variants of Shelby Mustangs braved the elements for the Stampede, as well as how many early gens were there, along with a multitude of special colors in attendance – especially green! The great photography you see here came from Ford retiree and super-enthusiast Bill Cook.

At this year's Calgary Stampede, local seasonal ingredients were on full display at the first-ever Taste of Stampede. The culinary cup pitted chefs from across Alberta against one another in a mouth-watering competition. Errin Massolin is the head chef of The Nash in Calgary's Inglewood neighbourhood. Using local is so important to her. She grew up in High River in a family of farmers. Massolin finished fourth overall in the event.

Stephen Carter and Zain Velji break down the politics of being seen, from Naheed Nenshi's controversial Stampede photo with the Israeli ambassador to the staffers whose job is to keep politicians out of pictures they will later regret. Can a good body person save a leader from a bad photo op? Is Mark Carney's new PMO structure a real change or just corporate jargon? And how much of an episode can be turned into an RBC Wealth Management ad before the sponsor asks for its money back?Zain Velji, as always, picks the questions and keeps everybody in line.Join our Patreon for ad-free episodes, bonus episodes, and access to our exclusive Discord.https://www.patreon.com/c/strategistspodYou can also watch our episodes on YouTube.https://www.youtube.com/@strategistspod Hosted on Acast.

"I take photographs in my neighborhood. I think that mysterious things happen in familiar places. We don't always need to run to the other end of the world." -- Saul Leiter "There is one thing the photograph must contain, the humanity of the moment." -- Robert Frank   In this midsummer episode, Antonio talks about returning to Seward, Nebraska, for the Fourth of July and giving himself one simple assignment: photograph people wearing the stars and stripes. By narrowing his attention, he actually becomes more present and comes home with a stronger, more connected group of pictures—a good reminder that creative limits can open things up instead of closing them down. As he prepares to teach his first six-week photography class, he also wrestles with how to give beginners enough technical knowledge without losing the bigger picture. Ward has just finished nine evenings at the Calgary Stampede, an event he has attended for more than forty years and photographed seriously for the last decade. This time, he finds himself looking beyond the strong, formal compositions he knows how to make and toward quieter pictures that say something about who people are. That shift brings more color, more interaction, and a little more humanity into the work. It also raises questions about responsibility: having the right to take and share a photograph does not always mean keeping it online is the most decent choice. Together, Ward and Antonio come around to the value of returning to the same places year after year. Familiar events can become long-term projects, giving photographers a chance to notice what interests them now, see how they are changing, and gradually find something deeper than the pictures they made the year before.   Antonio's Seward July 4th Pix: https://adobe.ly/4hdxxVA   Subscribe to our Substack Newsletter Help out the show by buying us a coffee!

Hotel Pacifico was created by Air Quotes Media with support from our presenting sponsor TELUS, as well as FortisBC.Mike is home alone at the Hotel this week and has hired temps to come in to keep the discussing going.  He's joined by Sitka Media's Jarryd Jäger, formerly of the Western Standard.  Jäger discusses the vision for the fledgling news service and where it fits between the echo chambers.  The Maple Ridge product also discusses his advocacy for free speech and how generational frustration is expressed through commentary.  In the Strategy Suite, Mike is joined by Leah Holoiday, a veteran of the Notley government and BC Public Service, and Carling Dick, an experienced campaigner with the BC Liberals and BC Conservatives. The trio review the recent Canada-BC Prosperity Agreement (is it aging like a fine wine or a quart of milk?), the NDP's voluntarily increasing involuntary care, a Carney insider makes his move on the North Shore, and does BC need its own Stampede to curry political favour?

Truth & Practice - Ecclesiastes 4:9-12: Let me ask you a question: Is it better to have two pieces of cake or one piece? Two birthday presents or one? Two weeks of vacation or one? Two hundred dollars or one?! I'm pretty sure your answer to each question is: TWO! Our passage this week in Ecclesiastes starts off with the words, “Two are better than one…” and on Sunday, we'll find out why! We will be continuing in our series, “Truth & Practice”, by looking at how we experience the beauty and importance of Community, in light of what we learned last week about the truth of God's complete, communal and collaborative nature.

Politicians of all stripes are out in full force at the Calgary Stampede, squeezing into jeans and cowboy boots. This year's focus: The upcoming referendum on Alberta separatism. Federal politicians are there in droves making their case for national unity. Independent pollster Janet Brown and CBC writer and producer Jason Markusoff join guest host Catherine Cullen to talk Stampede politics. And we'll hear what some Albertans are thinking when it comes to their province's future in the federation.

The Calgary Stampede isn't just Canada's biggest party. It's also the country's biggest networking event, where prime ministers, premiers, cabinet ministers, mayors, CEOs, lobbyists, and power brokers all show up to make deals, build relationships, and shape what's next. So, halfway through Stampede, we ask: Which politician is winning Stampede?  2:50 | Erika Barootes and Sabrina Grover debate who's made the biggest impact at Stampede 2026. Is it Danielle Smith?

More than 10 days after a pair of devastating earthquakes struck Venezuela, bodies are slowly being recovered. The official death toll now stands above three-thousand though that number is believed to be much higher in reality. We bring you the story of one woman who survived after spending more than 60 hours beneath the rubble of a collapsed building with her young daughter.In rural British Columbia and the Northwest Territories, out-of-control wildfires are forcing people out of their homes this weekend, Meanwhile in Quebec, dozens of fires have prompted the province to call for help from elsewhere across the country.Politicians rarely resist the lure of Calgary Stampede, though it's more than just rodeos, country music, and pancake breakfasts. It's also a prime opportunity to make connections, shake some hands, and hear directly from Albertans. But with a question of separatism coming up in the province's fall referendum, this year's Stampede feels different. The rising popularity of the romance genre in audiobooks, and more.

Stephen Carter and Shannon Phillips break down Alberta's increasingly murky referendum campaign, from the rules governing signs and fundraising to the power of writing questions designed to produce a preferred answer. What happens when everyone seems to be playing by a different set of rules? Can ordinary Albertans turn Stampede into amateur lobbying hour? And will Stephen Carter remember his best line long enough to use it at Stampede?Zain Velji, as always, picks the questions and keeps everybody in line.Join our Patreon for ad-free episodes, bonus episodes, and access to our exclusive Discord. https://www.patreon.com/c/strategistspodYou can also watch our episodes on YouTube. https://www.youtube.com/@strategistspod Hosted on Acast.

When people think of the Calgary Stampede, they probably picture rodeos, chuckwagon races, the famous parade, or perhaps deep-fried Mars bars on the midway. But how about kosher pancake breakfasts, Israeli tech entrepreneurs, and the Jewish businessman who created Calgary's iconic white cowboy hat in 1949? For more than a century, Calgary's Jewish community has woven its own traditions into Alberta's “Greatest Outdoor Show on Earth.” What began with Jewish homesteaders, ranchers and merchants has evolved into one of the busiest weeks on the Jewish community's calendar. Even before the 114th Calgary Stampede officially begins on July 3, the Jewish community has already hosted two kosher pancake breakfasts: the Calgary Jewish Academy's Mishpacha & Maple Syrup celebration June 14, while the House of Jacob-Mikveh Israel's annual community pancake breakfast held on June 27 attracted hundreds for flapjacks and pony rides. It's co sponsored by the Calgary Jewish Federation and the city's Paperny Family JCC. Still to come later this week are the annual “Spuds & Suds” gathering, co-hosted by the Centre for Israel and Jewish Affairs (CIJA) and Canadian Jewish Political Affairs Committee (CJPAC), where Jewish leaders and elected officials mingle over kosher latkes; and the Israeli Embassy's ShukTech showcase at the Stampede is also set to highlight Israeli innovation and entrepreneurship. On today's episode of The CJN's North Star podcast, host Ellin Bessner is joined by historian Saundra Lipton, president of the Jewish Historical Society of Southern Alberta, and by David Silver, president of the House of Jacob-Mikveh Israel synagogue, who moved to Calgary from Toronto nine years ago, to discuss how Jewish Calgarians have been part of one of Alberta's defining civic traditions for over a century. elated stories: Putting the “Oy” in cowboy: former CJN podcaster David Sklar investigated the Jewish roots of Alberta in 2022, on “Bonjour Chai”.

Tyler Clark sits down with Alessandro Nocera, an Italian basketball coach serving as individual player development coach at Saski Baskonia (EuroLeague) and head coach of the Italian U15 National Team. Alessandro's perspective has been shaped by six transformative years in the Spanish basketball system, which he credits with fundamentally reshaping how he sees and teaches the game.The conversation covers Alessandro's core offensive philosophy — dynamic vs. static one-on-one play and what it means to make decisions before the catch, not after. From there, Tyler and Alessandro dig into conceptual offense design, practice structure across different contexts, balancing offense and defense in limited time, the role of video and staff, and the deeply human side of coaching — adapting to every player and team as individuals.Timestamps15:01 — Alessandro's background and introduction 16:49 — Nike, Jordan Brand, Jr. NBA, UEFA license, and connection to Alex Sarama 17:28 — Dynamic vs. static 1v1: the foundational offensive concept 18:02 — Why stopping the ball kills the advantage 18:51 — Making decisions before the catch, not after 19:41 — Why static players fail to maximize potential at high levels 21:41 — Never play with two feet on the ground 22:30 — Teaching peripheral vision from a young age 23:30 — Why NBA players almost never catch with two feet 25:21 — Stampede actions and why they appear in every NBA action 25:50 — Soccer's influence on reading the game 26:27 — Messina and Consolini's influence on Alessandro's philosophy 27:11 — Guards and wings must always know where the 4 and 5 are 29:16 — How video accelerates learning in modern players 30:10 — Structuring development sessions across different contexts 32:30 — Building fundamentals from the game out: CLA with constraints, then on-air detail 33:25 — Evolving from drilling all day to surfing the fundamental spectrum 36:28 — Adapting to individual players: variability vs. focused repetition 37:27 — There's no system for everything — read the player and the game 38:45 — Adapting your philosophy entirely to your personnel 40:34 — Empathy in coaching: where art meets science 41:19 — Conceptual offense: what it is and what it isn't 44:10 — Alessandro's offensive structure: fast break in five, attack off every catch 46:10 — Run in five — all five players sprint immediately on possession 47:07 — Three core principles: spacing reads, zero-second decisions, inside-outside 48:05 — Rebounding as a habit, not a mindset 48:47 — Defensive philosophy: press the ball, cross steps, zero distance 49:16 — Triggers are secondary when your principles are locked in 51:53 — How to select triggers: analyze personnel and fit the action to the player 54:45 — Why coaches misunderstand conceptual offense as "just playing" 55:06 — Alessandro's team passes beautifully without ever formally training passing 56:47 — One rule: one-on-one always, one against two is a turnover 57:51 — Alessandro always used small-sided games — CLA before he had the language 59:52 — Classic constraint: 5v5 inside the three-point line 01:00:44 — Italian coaching school: Messina and Cremolini's influence 01:01:19 — Cremolini's CLA with 7-year-olds: teaching the layup without saying "layup" 01:04:20 — Weak hand constraint: score with the weak hand = double points 01:05:23 — Competition makes everything more natural 01:05:57 — The spy drill: players coach each other 01:07:52 — Messina's 10 drills, defensive footwork, and connecting 1v1 to 5v5 01:09:24 — Why defense doesn't get enough attention 01:10:05 — 50% of the game is defense — why is practice 90% offense? 01:11:15 — Defense is repetition — spend the time, get the result 01:12:39 — Staff dedicated to defense while you run offense — and vice versa 01:13:45 — The 11-man drill problem: nobody corrects the defense 01:15:55 — 3v2 and 4v3 as the best drills for ball pressure and collaboration 01:16:54 — For AAU coaches with one hour: cut everything to live play 01:17:46 — No assistant?

guest host Ryan Wrecker covered a Memorial Day weekend stampede at the Black Pearl Cultural Heritage and Bike Festival in South Carolina that injured 19 people.

Sean “Diddy” Combs is a music producer and rapper, but he is a businessman first. And as every businessman knows, you gotta pay the cost to be the boss. You’ve gotta bet big to win big. You have to have drive, determination, and swag. Three things that Diddy possesses and which helped Diddy navigate through the fallout of a fatal stampede, an alleged beatdown of a record exec, and a shooting at a Manhattan nightclub. All of them obstacles on the road to building one of the most dominant empires in hip-hop: a record label and a brand that commanded top dollar and defined the commercial apex of the genre in the mid-to-late 1990s.
