Today's featured poet is Charise Hoge (0:03:35) whose latest collection, Inheritance of Flowers, came out this spring from Kelsay Books. Reflecting on her grandmother's legacy as a southern flower shop owner, Charise speaks with Ann about ancestry, belonging, and our internal connections with nature that are sustaining even in times of upheaval and hibernation.In the Ask Randi segment, Dr. Randi Eckel (0:29:27) dives into New Jersey's game-changing Bill S1029, which was just passed by the State Senate. This bill tackles the sale of invasive plants and creates an Invasive Species Council—huge wins for our native ecosystems. But this bill is not law yet. The New Jersey State Assembly still needs to pass Bill A4137 to seal the deal. So now is the moment to act: Call or email your State Assembly member and urge them to support A4137 or reach out to NPSNJ Advocacy with questions. Your voice can help protect the landscapes we love! Plus, Randi answers a listener question about living native Christmas trees—sharing her top picks for outdoor planting after the holiday season.Kim then talks with Ken Chaya (0:43:43) celebrated artist and New York-based urban naturalist. Ken shares why Central Park has become one of the premier birding spots in the United States. With its unique geography and rich canopy of over 20,000 trees, the park is a vital oasis for migratory birds—and a paradise for birders. Ken was instrumental in creating the Central Park Entire App, is the past President of the Linnaean Society and teaches at the New York Botanical Garden, where he helped design the Urban Naturalist Certificate Program. Most recently, he led a four-week deep dive into The Natural History of Birds for NPSNJ.Kim and Ann close the episode in conversation with the remarkable Mélina Mangal (1:11:32)—author of children's books that explore our deep connections between nature and culture. Her latest works, Birds Sing Their Words and Trees Stand Tall, are lyrical board books for young readers, published by Free Spirit Publishing. Mélina is also a school library teacher in Minneapolis, where she champions the joy of reading every day. Together, we discuss book censorship, the vital role of storytelling, and why the freedom to read and access information is essential to the health of our democracy.  Announcement from The WildStory: We will take a short hiatus this summer—offering regenerative time for gardening, writing, family, and more. We will be back with a new episode in September!

George Moscone: Three Years Our Mayor

Mayor George Moscone was assassinated in the San Francisco mayor's office by Dan White, a former member of the San Francisco Board of Supervisors, on November 27, 1978. And then White walked down the hall and also shot Supervisor Harvey Milk—in White's former office. Lincoln Mitchell rescues crucial details about Mayor Moscone from the shadows of this tragedy, and reminds us of Mayor Moscone's contributions to the development of modern San Francisco. First, George Moscone was a trailblazing progressive and powerful state legislator who was instrumental in passing legislation on issues ranging from LGBT rights to funding for school lunches. Later, Moscone's 1975 campaign for mayor was historically significant because it was the first time a major race was won by a candidate who campaigned aggressively for expanding civil rights for both African Americans and LGBT people. In addition to being a successful politician, Moscone was a charming and charismatic bon vivant deeply embedded in the fabric and culture of San Francisco. He grew up the only son of a single mother in Cow Hollow when it was a working class, largely Italian American neighborhood, and he became the kind of politician who knows bartenders, playground attendants, small business owners, and neighborhood activists in every corner of the city. Mitchell demonstrates how Moscone—through his work in the State Senate, victory in the very divisive 1975 mayor's race, and brief tenure as mayor—was a key figure in our city's evolution. Join us in person to find out why the politics surrounding Moscone's election as mayor, governance of the city, and tragic death are still relevant today. A Humanities Member-led Forum program.

Illinois Senate Advances Bill to Tackle Crop Damage from Deer Overpopulation

Farmers across Illinois may soon see relief from increasing wildlife-related crop damage. Legislation sponsored by Senator Neil Anderson, Senate Bill 710, cleared the State Senate unanimously and now moves to the House for review. The bill aims to help manage deer overpopulation, a persistent issue causing both agricultural losses and vehicle accidents. Key measures include automatic issuance of extra hunting permits for qualifying landowners, expanded free permits for those with at least 40 acres, and new guest permit options. The initiative was developed with input from local farm bureaus and state officials, underscoring the push for practical, bipartisan solutions. “Agriculture is Illinois' leading industry, and when experts in the field raise concerns, it's our responsibility as lawmakers to find real solutions,” said Senator Anderson. “This is a bipartisan issue, and I'm grateful my colleagues recognized the significant impact deer overpopulation has on both agriculture and public safety.” “This bill is a result of collaboration with local farm bureaus, the Illinois Department of Natural Resources, and the Illinois Farm Bureau,” Senator Anderson added. “It's a strong first step, and I'm committed to continuing our conversations further based on continued feedback from our agricultural community.” Anderson also stressed the public safety benefits of the legislation regarding deer-related vehicle accidents. Reducing deer populations near roadways is a crucial part of protecting drivers, especially in rural areas where these collisions are most frequent. “This bill supports our farmers, but it also looks out for everyday Illinoisans who drive our roads,” said Senator Anderson. “It's about protecting crops, ensuring road safety, and managing wildlife in a responsible, effective way.”

When we think of politics, I think a lot of us feel intimidated or like there isn't room for us in the process–we're not “political,” or we don't have time, or we're not the right kind of person. Today's guest shows that being an unlikely politician may actually be the best thing, and why we need more real people in politics (yes, that means you!) About Erin: Erin Oban is a lifelong North Dakotan and proud, Class B kid, raised in a farm family in Ray, ND. Her professional career has included experience as a middle school math teacher, in nonprofit management and educational leadership, and in politics and public service. In 2014 and again in 2018, Erin was elected to represent central Bismarck's District 35 in the State Senate. In 2022, she received an appointment from President Biden to serve as North Dakota's state director of USDA Rural Development, a federal agency responsible for making financing and technical assistance accessible to rural and Tribal communities across the country. When not engaging in issues of importance and finding ways to make an impact, big or small, in her community, Erin enjoys a cold beer on the patio with friends, a cup of coffee with a stranger, live music and comedy, traveling, and being comfy at home in Bismarck with her husband, Chad, and their son and favorite human, Evin. In this episode, we cover: How Erin became involved in the legislative world (kind of by accident!) Why voucher schemes and school choice don't help our small towns How every single one of us has something we can offer and something we can do about the things we care about Resources Mentioned: https://www.ndforpublicschools.com/ https://www.facebook.com/ND4PublicSchools Think Again by Adam Grant Small-Town Shout-Out! Wahoo to the unincorporated community of Guelph, ND (just a stone's throw from Oakes) for showing that no town is too small to do big, cool things when people care. Two cool things we're highlighting: Off the "Sheulph" Guelph purchased the old school building, where they host markets throughout the year and rent out the historic wood gym for events, and a young couple transformed the old train depot into a beautiful Airbnb, giving visitors a reason to come and stay. Good job, Guelph!! New Segment Alert! We think some of the best parts about radio shows and podcasts are listener call-ins, so we've decided to make those a part of the Growing Small Towns Podcast.

We open with a nod to Tara Bull's Top 10 News Stories the Legacy/mainstream media likely did not cover this week, or certainly did not do them justice if they did. Then we spend time with another judge breaking the law and being arrested. This dovetails with my comments on yesterday's show about people who are supposed to support and defend the rule of law, are becoming the biggest breakers of the law. This leads to a case in the SCOTUS that will ultimately decide if parents still have a right to determine what is best for their children. The case is about a school district beginning their indoctrination and grooming at age 3. Rep. Jason Crow (D-CO) has an odd way of trying to convince us the Democrats have the best ideas and policies. He seems to think we don't remember the most recent election. Rep. Illhan Omar (D-MN) is revealing with the Democrats will be doing if they get back in power during the midterms. So, this opens the door to several stories about persecution and condescension from the Left. As we close, Paramount and CBS have both settled DEI suits for their discrimination against straight, white males. This is happening as yet another judge tells Trump DEI must be kept in the public schools. Finally, we have a Democrat in Florida's State Senate who is leaving the party because he no longer recognizes it.

Moscone's 1975 campaign for mayor was historically significant because it was the first time a major race was won by a candidate who campaigned aggressively for expanding civil rights for both African Americans and LGBT people. He won his campaign for mayor chiefly because of huge support from those two constituencies.

Moscone's life and the history of San Francisco during the middle half of the twentieth century are deeply intertwined.  Through illustrating the life of Moscone, author Lincoln A.

Elise Stefanik (R-NY) will no longer be the nominee to serve as Ambassador to the United Nations. In a post to Truth Social, Trump revealed he asked Stefanik to remain in Congress—citing the Republican Party's narrow majority in the House of Representatives and the need for her critical vote to pass conservative policies. Though New York's 21st Congressional District is reliably red, reports indicate that Governor Kathy Hochul (D-NY) was planning to delay filling the vacancy—despite NY law mandating an election within 90 days. 3:30pm- Corey DeAngelis—Senior Fellow at the American Culture Project & Visiting Fellow at the American Institute for Economic Research—joins The Rich Zeoli Show to discuss the Trump Administration's pledge to dismantle the Department of Education.

The programs provide funding for students in high-poverty areas as well as students with disabilities. Who could possibly be opposed to returning education to the local level—where parents have more control? President of the American Federation of Teachers Randi Weingarten, of course! DeAngelis emphasizes “her power is slipping right through her fingertips” but this is good news for students, parents, and even teachers. “She makes over half a million dollars a year fighting to trap other people's kids in her failure factories that she likes to call public schools.” DeAngelis is the author of “The Parent Revolution: Rescuing Your Kids from the Radicals Ruining Our Schools.” 3:40pm- Disney Disaster: Disney's live action remake of the classic film Snow White hit theaters on March 21st. Despite needing to earn a reported $600 million to cover production and marketing costs, the film only grossed $43 million in its opening weekend. Part of the problem, according to reports, is Disney's unwillingness to put the film's star, Rachel Zegler, on an extended promotional tour due to her past controversial comments which have included criticisms of the original Snow White story, nasty comments about castmates, and profane remarks about President Donald Trump and his supporters. According to a new report from Variety, one of the film's producers needed to fly to Zegler and plead with her to stop posting polarizing messages on social media. 4:00pm- Early Thursday morning, the Department of Justice announced the arrest of an alleged leader of the international criminal gang MS-13.

Dimitri and Khalid dive into the heart of the Molly Maguire story in 1870s Schuylkill County, Pennsylvania, including: the simultaneous rise of the first successful labor union for miners (Irish-Catholic John Siney's Workingmen's Benevolent Association) and the charismatic Irish-American (Protestant) industrialist wunderkind Franklin B. Gowen, Gowen's sinister HOTGAF plans for the Reading Railroad (crushing the independent owner-operators, bribing the State Senate, price-gouging everyone, implying the WBA is controlled by a murderous global Irish-Catholic cabal), the brutal Long Strike of 1875, bloody clashes between Irish workers and Nativist "vigilance committee" death squads, the two-year infiltration of Irish Pinkerton detective James McParlan into the innermost circles of the Molly Maguires, and more.

Those who recognize Mayor George Moscone's name may think of him as the career politician who was assassinated along with Harvey Milk, but there was much more to this influential and fascinating man's story. He was a trailblazing progressive and powerful state legislator who was instrumental in passing legislation on issues ranging from LGBT rights to funding for school lunches. Moscone's 1975 campaign for mayor was historically significant because it was the first time a major race was won by a candidate who campaigned aggressively for expanding civil rights for both African Americans and LGBT people. He won his campaign for mayor chiefly because of huge support from those two constituencies. Moscone was also a very colorful character who, in addition to being a successful politician, was a charming and charismatic bon vivant who was deeply embedded in the fabric and culture of San Francisco. He grew up the only son of a single mother in Cow Hollow when it was a working class, largely Italian American neighborhood, and he became the kind of politician who knew bartenders, playground attendants, small business owners, and neighborhood activists in every corner of the city. Moscone's life and the history of San Francisco during the middle half of the twentieth century are deeply intertwined.  Through illustrating the life of Moscone, author Lincoln A. Mitchell explores how today's San Francisco came into being. Moscone--through his work in the State Senate, victory in the very divisive 1975 mayor's race, and brief tenure as mayor--was a key figure in the city's evolution. The politics surrounding Moscone's election as mayor, governance of the city, and tragic death are still relevant issues. Moscone was a groundbreaking politician whose life was cut short, but his influence on San Francisco can still be felt today. Learn more about your ad choices.

Inside Sources with Boyd Matheson

Hosts: Erin Rider and Taylor Morgan  SCOTUS upholds Biden-era rules on ghost guns  The United States Supreme Court has upheld another Biden-era rule. In a 7-2 decision, the Court upheld a lower court's ruling requiring background checks and other protective measures for ghost guns. As a result of the decision, ghost guns will continue to be treated the same as fully assembled firearms. The Inside Sources hosts break down the decision.    The Atlantic releases all messages involved in “SignalGate” fiasco  "SignalGate" isn't going away anytime soon. More Congressional hearings today as lawmakers try to figure out how the editor-in-chief of The Atlantic was included on an unsecured chat discussing military plans on the app Signal. The White House is blaming the whole fiasco on the journalist, Jeffrey Goldberg. Meanwhile National Security Advisor Mike Waltz says he takes full responsibility for the gaffe. Inside Sources digs into the latest, including a full release of all the messages in the chat.    RFK Jr. Reportedly looking to ban pharmaceutical television ads  Just turn on the TV for a bit, and you’re bound to see a drug advertisement that’s so common here in the United States. The U.S. and New Zealand are the only countries that allow drug companies to advertise directly to consumers, and it's a big business.  But they could be going away... if Director of Health and Human Services Robert F. Kennedy Jr. gets his way. Inside Sources discusses this possibility.    Utah A.G. taking part in lawsuit over the Clean Air Act  Utah's involved in a lawsuit against the Environmental Protection Agency over which courts can rule on disputes involving the Clean Air Act. Utah Attorney General Derek Brown and his team argued before the U.S. Supreme Court yesterday, saying that federal courts closer to the individual states should be able to rule on Clean Air Act disputes.  Right now, those disputes go to a federal court in Washington, DC – something which some describe as giving a "home court advantage" to the EPA.    Gov. Cox vetoes bill that would have changed the relationship between the judicial and the executive branches  Governor Spencer Cox has vetoed his second bill of 2025. Senate Bill 296 would have changed how the Chief Justice of the Utah Supreme Court is chosen. Currently, the other justices on the State Supreme Court choose the Chief Justice. The bill -- which Cox vetoed yesterday -- would have given the selection power to the Governor himself, with confirmation from the State Senate. Erin Rider and Taylor Morgan discuss the Governor’s reasoning for vetoing the bill.    Polling data released on Republicans in Utah  New polling shows something most politicos in the state already know -- Republicans still dominate the political scene in Utah. But the data also shows that there are factions splitting the party... largely over President Donald Trump. Inside Sources host Taylor Morgan is a polling nerd; he breaks down the findings with co-host Erin Rider.    Tensing relationships between Greenland and the U.S.  Last weekend, the White House announced that Second Lady Usha Vance would head to Greenland. Now, Vice President JD Vance, National Security Advisor Mike Waltz, and Energy Secretary Chris Wright have announced that they will go with her. It comes amid tense relations between the U.S., Greenland, and Denmark. Inside Sources discusses the latest on foreign policy.    Washington, D.C. to become Washington, D.A.?  Should Washington, DC become Washington, DA? Several Republican lawmakers have posited the idea of getting rid of the District of Columbia and replacing it with the District of America. Just yesterday, Colorado Representative Lauren Boebert warned other lawmakers to stop making fun of Trump's "Gulf of America,” saying that the "District of America" could be coming next.

GDP Script/ Top Stories for March 22nd Publish Date: March 22nd PRE-ROLL: From the BG AD Group Studio Welcome to the Gwinnett Daily Post Podcast. Today is Saturday, March 22nd and Happy Birthday to William Shatner I’m Peyton Spurlock and here are your top stories presented by Gwinnett KIA Mall of Georgia. 'Beyond heroic' — VALOR Awards Honor Gwinnett Public Safety Officials Tort reform bill squeaks through Georgia House Georgia Supreme Court takes up State Election Board rules changes All of this and more is coming up on the Gwinnett Daily Post podcast, and if you are looking for community news, we encourage you to listen daily and subscribe! Break 1: 07.14.22 KIA MOG STORY 1: 'Beyond heroic' — VALOR Awards Honor Gwinnett Public Safety Officials The Gwinnett Chamber hosted its 20th Annual VALOR Public Safety Awards, honoring first responders for their dedication to keeping Gwinnett County safe. Held at the Gas South District, the event gathered over 360 attendees, including business leaders and community members. President Nick Masino highlighted the vital role of public safety in fostering a thriving community. Awards recognized exceptional service, including Major Michelle Anglin for Leadership, Corporal Sean Donahue as Public Safety Person of the Year, and the Behavioral Health Unit as Public Safety Unit of the Year. The ceremony celebrated the heroism and commitment of Gwinnett's first responders. STORY 2: Tort reform bill squeaks through Georgia House The Georgia House narrowly passed Senate Bill 68, a GOP-backed tort reform measure, with a 91-82 vote. The bill, a priority for Gov. Brian Kemp, aims to curb excessive jury awards and stabilize liability insurance costs by introducing premises liability guidelines, allowing seat belt evidence in auto cases, and limiting medical damage claims to actual costs. Supporters argue it will benefit businesses, while opponents, including many Democrats, claim it reduces access to justice and unfairly impacts crime victims. The bill includes a carveout for sex trafficking victims but faces criticism for excluding other crime victims. It now returns to the Senate for review. STORY 3: Georgia Supreme Court takes up State Election Board rules changes Civil rights and voting rights groups urged the Georgia Supreme Court to uphold a lower-court ruling invalidating seven election law changes made by the Republican-controlled State Election Board (SEB) last fall. The changes included hand-counting ballots, delaying result certification for fraud inquiries, stricter absentee ballot requirements, and expanded poll watcher areas. A Fulton County judge previously ruled the SEB overstepped its authority, violating the separation of powers. However, state and Republican lawyers argued the SEB acted within its rights and that the plaintiffs lacked legal standing to sue. The case centers on the balance of legislative and executive powers.

We’ll be right back Break 2: STORY 4: Gwinnett Police Again Ask For Public's Help In Fatal Hit-and-Run Investigation The Gwinnett County Police Department is seeking new information about a hit-and-run that killed 24-year-old Mecha Woodard on September 27, 2024. Woodard was struck while walking on the eastbound shoulder of State Route 316 near Breckenridge Blvd. The suspect vehicle, a Lexus RX350 or RX450 (2019-2022), sustained damage to the front passenger-side bumper and headlight. Investigators urge anyone with information to contact Gwinnett Police Detectives at 678-442-5653 or submit anonymous tips to Crime Stoppers at 404-577-8477 or www.stopcrimeATL.com, with potential cash rewards for leads. STORY 5: Senate measure to trim state agency rules advances toward a vote by the House The Georgia House Budget and Fiscal Affairs Oversight Committee advanced Senate Bill 28, the "Red Tape Rollback Act," aimed at reducing outdated or burdensome state agency rules. Sponsored by Sen. Greg Dolezal, the bill requires agencies to review rules every four years and conduct impact analyses for proposed rules costing $3 million or more in compliance over five years. Republicans view it as a way to streamline bureaucracy, while Democrats argue it could burden agencies and taxpayers. Amendments raised the impact analysis threshold and required analyses to be posted online. The bill now heads to the House Rules Committee. Break 3: STORY 6: State Senate health committee approves IVF bill House Bill 428, which codifies the right to in vitro fertilization (IVF) in Georgia, unanimously passed a Senate committee. Prompted by an Alabama ruling treating frozen embryos as children, the bill ensures IVF remains accessible in Georgia without introducing new regulations. Sponsor Rep. Lehman Franklin, who has personal experience with IVF, emphasized the bill simply formalizes current practices. Parents shared emotional testimonies about their IVF journeys, while some called for ethical regulations on embryo handling. The bill now heads to the Senate Rules Committee for a full Senate vote. STORY 7: Teen fatally shot during 'Senior Skip Day' at Denny Dobbs Park An 18-year-old Salem High School student, Justin Etienne, was fatally shot Wednesday at Denny Dobbs Park during an informal "Senior Skip Day" event involving students from Newton and Rockdale counties. The Newton County Sheriff’s Office described the incident as isolated, with no gang involvement or additional injuries. Grief counselors were made available at schools, and law enforcement increased patrols as a precaution. Authorities are urging witnesses or anyone with information to come forward. Both Newton and Rockdale school systems expressed condolences and emphasized the event was not school-sanctioned. The investigation is ongoing.
