This is a classic session of Where Should We Begin? They've been on and off for almost 20 years. While she takes care of his and their child, she wants to know that he's also there for her. He's been battling depression for years. And the shame that comes with it.

These sessions are meant not only to support the people in the room with Esther, but all of us who learn from their stories.

Today on The Gist, guest host Charlie introduces Mike Pesca's conversation with comedian Vic Michaelis, host of Very Important People on Dropout TV. Michaelis discusses the show's chaotic premise, where comedians are transformed by high-end VFX makeup and prosthetics without knowing what they look like until a live mirror reveal, forcing them to build an improvised character from scratch. They also explore the evolution of improv for online video formats, Michaelis's character arc as an ambitious yet deeply frustrated public access news anchor, and the comedic blend of East Coast punchlines and big Canadian character work.

You really did mean it when you made the plan.You were motivated. The goal felt urgent. You were clear about what you wanted and what you were willing to do to get there.But the person who makes the plan and the person who has to negotiate with that plan later often have very different priorities.In this episode, we're talking about what happens when the version of you who wants the long-term outcome runs into the version of you who wants something else right now—the extra hour of sleep, the thing that's on sale, the relief, the exception.I'll share a real example of how I use DEFENSE with my own financial goals, why “permission logic” can be so convincing even when you know exactly what you want, and why some of our most important work happens before we ever reach the moment where we're tempted to change the plan.Your plan isn't finished when you decide what you're going to do. You need a defense for the person who's going to negotiate with it.Tomorrow night, September 1st, I'm teaching a live two-hour DEFENSE workshop where we'll work on exactly this: where your gaps open, the permission patterns that make moving the target feel reasonable, how to respond to them, and how to change some of the conditions upstream so those moments happen less often. The workshop is $47 and includes the complete 80+ page DEFENSE Master Playbook. There is no replay.Join me for the DEFENSE Workshop:Save your seat for September 1st →Read more from me on Substack:Subscribe to Elizabeth Benton Thompson on Substack →
Donald Trump wants the American people to be depressed, despondent, defeated, and ultimately disengaged. But We The People MUST NOT accommodate him in that regard. There are so many ways to engage in this fight for American democracy, not all of which are intuitive. But there is a new book that provides a compelling, practical, and layman-friendly blueprint for how to fight against Trump's tyranny . . . and win, titled, "Ordinary People, Extraordinary Times, How to Reclaim Your Power, Fight for Freedom, and Reimagine Democracy." Skye Perryman, President and CEO of Democracy Forward, has authored a timely, must read how-to guide for defending democracy. Skye makes the case that defending democracy isn't the job of lawyers or politicians alone - it's a role for every one of us. This from Skye: "I started writing this book when it became undeniably clear, as our history also teaches, that it is not our institutions that will save us - not the courts, not corporate generosity, not the universities, not the media - but it is the people." Democracy is a team sport, and we ALL need to be in the game.

She and her husband joined a comedy show. (3:00) Traveling can be a challenge, but make it a game for yourself. Anna shares some of the things she did to stay NSNG. UCDavis has recently released a study on the purity of avocado oil products. (32:00) UCDavis.edu https://www.ucdavis.edu/food/news/study-finds-82-percent-avocado-oil-rancid-or-mixed-other-oils They reviewed many popular brands of processed mayo, dressings, and snacks. Anna has a one-minute mayo recipe that you can find on her Substack: Eat Happy Kitchen One-Minute Mayo The UC Davis study found that 48 of the 54 avocado oil labeled products were adulterated with cheaper oils. A large percentage were either rancid and/or adulterated with other oils. (44:00) Not all manufacturers may have known they were receiving adulterated oils. Anna shares some of the products on the list. If the product is "compositionally consistent with authentic oil", then the oil's rating was noted with a checkmark. (47:00) Vinnie briefly speaks about his 45th high school reunion. (57:00) He noticed a big difference between his 20th and 45th reunions. Of everyone who showed up, they looked great.

This is a replay of a live Substack training. Because it was recorded live, you'll hear audience polling, chat Q&A, and time-sensitive references to the 30-day Substack Challenge and its bonuses, but the teaching inside is some of the most complete Kelly has shared on why Substack is working the way it is. Kelly only got on Substack to support a book deal, had zero intention of monetizing it, and then her VP of Marketing Krista realized the platform was a faster, easier way to do everything they already teach about trust-building offers and monetizing content. Seven months and six figures later, they're teaching it. Along the way, she and Danielle bust the biggest myths (it's just a newsletter, it only works if you teach business, it takes too much time), explain why their clients across every niche get paid so fast, and break down the number one mistake they made early on: not turning on monetization from day one. Danielle walks through the full-funnel case — how notes, articles, and campaigns let you do discoverability, nurture, and conversion all in one place, why you own your list, and why "the content is the product" changes everything. They close with the three things that make Substack structurally different from every other platform, and the details of the 30-day challenge built to get you your first (or next) 100 paid subscribers. What's inside: Why Substack works in every industry (not just business) The number one monetization mistake to avoid from day one Full-funnel selling: notes, articles, and campaigns in one place The three things that make Substack unlike any other platform Timestamps 00:00 — Poll and setup: do you have a Substack yet? 03:25 — Kelly's Substack origin story (the book, and Krista's lightbulb) 06:08 — Seven months monetizing, and proof it's not just because they teach sales 07:03 — Testing it with Legacy Leaders across every niche 08:10 — Why Substack was never a "business teacher" platform 11:23 — Why clients get paid so fast: you're already doing the work 13:18 — Should you start if you're brand new? 14:12 — The number one mistake: not turning on monetization 17:23 — Which industries win on Substack (all of them) 18:47 — The AI and bot reality, and LinkedIn's collapse 19:55 — Instagram vs. Substack: dopamine hits vs. deep trust 21:31 — Own your audience: a compounding asset, not rented land 24:32 — Myth 1: Substack is just a blog or newsletter 25:23 — Myth 2: it only works if you teach business 26:20 — Myth 3: it takes too much time 28:38 — Should you start without your paid tiers mapped out? 30:04 — Why you don't need a big audience 31:20 — Substack vs. building an expensive funnel 32:31 — Danielle on doing $10K in 20 days with almost no audience 36:11 — Full-funnel explained: notes, articles, and owning the list 39:12 — Zero friction, owning your list, and content as the product 43:47 — Why people actually pay (the article and campaign strategy) 49:12 — What's included in the 30-day challenge 50:06 — The goal: 100 paid subscribers and a bestseller ranking 56:57 — The challenge, week by week 1:03:09 — The Sunday-only messaging bonus and tool 1:06:38 — It's about leverage: better ROI from work you've already done (Timestamps pulled from the transcript timecodes — verify against your final edit.)

Ryan sits down with Australian author and Somewhere in the Skies contributing writer, Violeta M. Bagia, for a deep dive into some of Australia's most compelling and overlooked UFO cases. From the strange 1954 Dandenong saucer sighting and the terrifying 1988 Knowles family encounter to the controversial photographs of Eric Thomason, Violeta shares what she's uncovered while digging through Australia's UFO archives. They also explore alien abductions, the stigma still facing experiencers, and whether today's government-driven UAP conversation has lost some of the mystery and wonder that once defined UFOlogy. Plus, Violeta previews the forgotten Australian cases she'll be bringing to ANOMACON 2026.

This week’s episode looks at a variety of social and ethical visions that aim for the perfect society or state of being through, especially in the West. These visions, some of which have religious and even Christian roots, end up bracketing out a full Christian view of transcendence and replace it with one or another type of reality immanent in nature or the human or in human invention alone. The result has been anything but utopia!

Health care gets blamed on villains, but the harder truth is that most people are reacting to the incentives right in front of them. From the 2026 Mackinac Policy Conference, we sit down with Matt Elliott, founder of Blue Lake Ideas and former president of Bank of America Michigan, to ask the question that quietly reshapes every other debate: who is the customer in health care?Matt brings a leadership lens he calls the “Power of And” thinking that refuses to collapse decisions into either-or. If Michigan wants a stronger future, we have to execute today and invest for tomorrow. We have to take care of people and still deliver results. That mindset matters when the state is facing what many leaders describe as a “house on fire” moment: slipping educational and economic outcomes, rising cost pressure, and real threats to access, especially for rural hospitals that often serve as the largest employer in town.We also get concrete about health care cost transparency and pricing signals. Patients rarely see the real price of care, there often isn't a usable price sheet, and even providers can be constrained by contracts and regulation. We talk about how benefit design and tax policy shape behavior, why clarity has to come before solutions, and what “winning” should mean if we want a health care system that works for patients and communities.Subscribe, share this conversation with someone who debates health care policy, and leave a review with your answer: who do you think the customer really is?Support the showEngage the conversation on Substack at The Common Bridge!

Johann Kurtz returns to TFTC to explain why young people are broke despite rising real wages and falling unemployment. Kurtz and Marty Bent break down the measurement problem buried inside GDP and inflation data, the two-income trap, collapsing home ownership, and the real cost of living in a low-trust society. They dig into social capital, status games, the fertility collapse, and why tight-knit virtue-driven communities still produce large families. A grounded macro conversation about money, family formation, and building a life worth living.

Talks are understood to be at an advanced stage, with a deal largely agreed between the two clubs. The potential arrival of Ndiaye comes at the same time as Everton have agreed terms in principle to re-sign Richarlison from Spurs, with both clubs involved in significant squad reshaping ahead of the summer transfer deadline. In addition, Tottenham Hotspur now have an agreement in place for the transfer of central midfielder Pape Matar Sarr, who is set to join Juventus on loan with a potential obligation to buy. Sunderland have also received fresh encouragement in their pursuit of Kevin Danso after Roberto De Zerbi confirmed that the Tottenham defender has asked to leave before Tuesday night's deadline. The Black Cats previously saw a loan move for the 27-year-old Austria international rejected, but Florent Ghisolfi has continued to keep Danso among the defensive options under consideration. Brentford are also reportedly weighing up a late move for Archie Gray, with Keith Andrews looking to strengthen his squad ahead of a potential European push. Late interest from Brentford has emerged two years after they saw Gray slip from their grasp when he opted to join Spurs. Tottenham are understood to want to retain the 20-year-old, having already rejected an approach from Newcastle earlier in the summer, and the club are likely to maintain a firm not-for-sale stance. Back in May, Roberto De Zerbi praised Gray's potential, describing him as a very young player with a big future ahead of him. The Spurs boss said he was confident Gray could become a future captain of the club, while also stressing the importance of settling on his best position.

Grace & Grit Podcast: Helping Women Everywhere Live Happier, Healthier and More Fit Lives
There is a feeling most of us were taught to be ashamed of. We call it a sin. We hide it. We dress it up as something more acceptable. But what if envy, honestly examined, is actually one of the most useful signals available to you? In this episode I draw the distinction between jealousy, which makes me feel small and defensive, and envy, which points at something I desire. I share my own experience following Misty Tripoli, the founder of the Groove dance movement, and how sitting with what I envy about her revealed something important about what I want for myself. Envy, properly examined, is not a character flaw. It is a compass. And it is worth following. Want everything in one place?

Monday Morning Anxiety — Calm the Dread of the Week Ahead | Vagus Nerve Breathing Meditation Monday morning anxiety has a weight all of its own — that heavy, anticipatory dread that arrives before your feet have even touched the floor. In this 10-minute guided meditation, Calming Anxiety host Martin helps you put the whole week down and meet Monday with a nervous system that is working with you, not against you. Today's practice uses vagus nerve breathing — a slow nasal inhale, a gentle hold, and a long, soft exhale — to press the brake pedal on your stress response. Three guided rounds, followed by a warm golden-light body scan and a set of gentle affirmations for anxiety relief, work anxiety and the Sunday scaries that spill into Monday. It closes with three practical daily caring tips you can carry into the day. Whether you're listening in bed, on the train, in the car park, or in the ten quiet minutes before you walk in through those doors — this is deep relaxation and breathwork you can use anywhere.

What happens to human intelligence in a world increasingly dominated by artificial intelligence? In this special conversation, Dr. JC Doornick sits down with world-renowned brain coach and bestselling author Jim Kwik to explore his new book, Limitless Daily, and why developing our own minds may be more important now than ever. As AI becomes faster, smarter, and more integrated into everyday life, Jim makes the case that Artificial Intelligence still depends on Human Intelligence—our ability to think critically, ask better questions, remain curious, learn faster, remember what matters, and consciously direct our attention. But becoming limitless isn't something you do once. It's something you practice daily. Jim shares the philosophy behind Limitless Daily, a book designed to give you a powerful lesson, insight, or mental reset every day of the year. Think of it as daily training for your brain—a way to intentionally win the morning before the world gets a chance to program your mind for you. JC also shares how reading Limitless Daily each morning became an unexpected companion during his cancer recovery, often delivering exactly the lesson, perspective, or question he needed that particular day. This conversation explores brain health, focus, memory, mindset, morning routines, lifelong learning, the relationship between AI and HI, and what it really means to become limitless—not by doing more, but by learning how to better use the most powerful technology you'll ever possess: Your own mind. If you've been wondering how to stay focused, capable, creative, and distinctly human in the age of AI, this conversation with Jim Kwik is one you won't want to miss.

Today we're chatting with Ivana Perbi, founder of Wardrobe Affaire, the world's first discovery platform dedicated to pre-loved fashion events, which is on a mission to help secondhand event organizers seamlessly host fashion experiences and help shoppers discover them – all over the world. Ivana grew up in southern Germany, where secondhand wasn't a trend but simply how her family shopped, and where weekends at the flea market where her mother sold clothes shaped her eye for style. After a decade working inside luxury fashion houses like Louis Vuitton and Chanel, a research trip back to her birthplace of Accra, Ghana — and a visit to the sprawling Kantamanto secondhand market — changed everything for her. Ivana left the corporate world, retrained as a UX designer, and launched a fashion rental platform in Berlin. But after three years of testing, and some incredibly successful event pop-ups, she recognized a much bigger opportunity and pivoted Wardrobe Affaire into what it is today: a platform built to solve the real logistical headaches of hosting and discovering pre-loved fashion events. We're getting into it all — the pivot from rental to events, and her favorite vintage finds, including the vintage Chanel she found for a steal at a Berlin flea market! Let's dive right in! DISCUSSED IN THE EPISODE: [02:54] Ivana loved style and collecting fashion magazines growing up [07:04] When sustainability in fashion started to connect with her personal values [08:20] Learning about Ghana's Kantamanto Market and the scale of secondhand clothing waste [11:07] Ways to keep clothing in circularity — repair, swapping, and rental [13:29] What she learned about repair and craftsmanship working at Louis Vuitton and Chanel [15:23] The origin story of her first fashion rental platform [16:18] Convincing lenders, consumers, and investors to embrace rental in Germany [18:08] What she learned about the "attitude-behavior gap" in sustainable fashion [20:52] Deciding to pivot from rental into secondhand events [23:42] The gaps she was trying to fill in the pre-loved events space, including event discovery [27:47] What's keeping would-be shoppers on the sidelines from attending events [31:27] Why curation of vendors is everything at a vintage shopping event [36:03] What the pivot required of her personally as a founder [38:26] Her personal style and vintage collection EPISODE MENTIONS: Wardrobe Affaire @wardrobeaffaire By Rotation HURR Sami Miro Vintage Pre-Loved's original research on secondhand events LET'S CONNECT:
This month, on Laura Flanders & Friends, we're taking a closer look at criminal justice—through the lens of abolition, accountability, and the power of the creative arts to tell fuller, truer stories. This week we'll explore a new documentary, CYCLE, that's breaking the silence around police killings. Subscribe to Laura on Substack: https://lauraflanders.substack.com/ Description: Would we know from our media that over 1,000 people are killed by police every year in the U.S.? The stories of George Floyd and Breonna Taylor are exceptions, but for the victims we don't hear about, there's CYCLE. The newly-released investigative feature documentary from LionArt Media focuses on the 2019 killing of Ty'rese West, an 18-year-old Black teenager from Racine, Wisconsin who was shot to death after being pulled over by a Mount Pleasant police officer for riding a bicycle with no headlights. No videos were taken, the details of West's death were withheld from the community and the subsequent police report. Made in close collaboration with West's mother, Monique West, the film follows the story of Ty'rese's death and the lawsuit that ensued. CYCLE is an invitation, “. . . to interrupt the silence that follows so many cases that never go viral — cases where there's no footage, no public pressure, and no accountability,” say director Laura Dyan Kezman and co-director William Howell, both Racine natives. Kezman is an award-winning director, DP, and editor, and the founder of LionArt Media committed to telling bold, socially driven stories that examine justice, culture, and civic engagement. Howell is a cinematographer, editor, and director based in Milwaukee. He was the cinematographer of ‘The Rise and Fall of Coo Coo Cal' and the director of the 2020 film ‘You Don't Know Me'. Join the CYCLE directors and Laura Flanders for this powerful conversation on police accountability and community action, plus a commentary on the media quiet about Trump's massive military build-up in the Caribbean. “. . . We started this film in 2019 with the intention of not making an angry film, but we didn't quite know what the film needed to be yet. Then COVID hit, Ahmaud Arbery was killed, and then Breonna Taylor was killed, and then George Floyd was killed . . . We felt it then, that this was something so much bigger than us in terms of us telling Tyrese's story in that moment.” - Laura Dyan Kezman “The call to action, that's when I see, more than anything, that we achieved our goal. People are not leaving these theaters angry . . . They're leaving and saying, what can we do? What can I do? What can we do together as people to help create this change?” - William Howell Guests: • William Howell: Co-Director, CYCLE • Laura Dyan Kezman: Director, Editor & Producer, CYCLE Full Conversation Release: While our weekly shows are edited to time for broadcast on Public TV and community radio, we offer to our members and podcast subscribers the full uncut conversation.

What if being lazy could actually make you more successful and more fulfilled? This episode will challenge everything you think you know about productivity, rest, and what it means to achieve. Janet Taylor, your Life Organizer, welcomes back Naketa Ren Thigpen — balance and relationship advisor, host of the Lazy Overachiever Show, co-founder of ThigPro's Balance and Relationship Management Institute, and the woman known as the Love Doctor. With nearly 30 years of transforming lives through emotional alignment and intentional self-care, Naketa helps high-performing leaders release limiting patterns and build lives of genuine fulfillment — from the bedroom to the boardroom. In this conversation you will learn: What the Lazy Overachiever actually means — and why it is not a contradiction but a powerful reclaiming of who you are. How overachieving starts in your DNA — and when it becomes a problem driven by the need to prove yourself to people, and even people who are no longer here. The difference between pretend productivity and strategic rest — and why Naketa's Selfish Saturdays and Soul Sundays changed everything. The T over B formula for work-life balance — admit your Truth and create the Boundaries that help you live that truth as your reality. Why your boundaries should feel expansive not suffocating — and how to set them so the people around you actually respect them. How to trust your inner brilliance and stop overextending for things that do not align with where you are going. How Naketa stays organized as a podcaster, author, wife, mother, grandmother, and advisor — writing things down first, filtering them into a calendar, and setting layered reminders for things that truly matter. Taylor's Tip Time: Five steps to declutter your brain — do a brain dump on a blank page, categorize everything that comes out, schedule time for each task in the coming week, schedule at least one self-care moment, and repeat the process weekly. TossItTuesday: Dispose of expired medications, syrups, and cold and flu items. Emergency preparedness month is the perfect time to make sure everything in your medicine cabinet is up to date. Resource Roundup: Hooks — hang your keys, ID, cap, and daily essentials so you can find things the first time you look. Book suggestion: Janet's ebook Prepared and Organized — seven areas to tackle during challenging times, from your paperwork to your pantry and everything in between.

The Last Word On Spurs panel return as two second-half goals for Newcastle United consigned us to defeat in our first home game of the new Premier League season on Saturday evening. Despite the feelgood factor of a Spurs debut for new signing Omar Marmoush and an impressive first-half performance in which we created plenty of chances but couldn't convert them into goals, the visitors struck twice in 10 minutes through Anthony Elanga and Yoane Wissa to make it back-to-back losses for us to open the league campaign. That made it four wins on their last five visits to N17 for Newcastle and also ensured this fixture still hasn't seen a goalless draw in the 63 times it has been played in the Premier League. We discuss what has contributed to Spurs' poor start to the season and why the Club continue to look so under-prepared in comparison to our Premier League rivals. We debate whether a genuine number nine or a number 10 is what would help us as we go into the final days of the window, with Cody Gakpo choosing to go to Manchester City, are Spurs in a position to pivot to other options with suggestions that Everton's Iliman Ndiaye is a prime target to complete their summer squad overhaul, with possibly heading back to Everton. We reflect on what the transfer-deadline day could bring us, with De Roberto Zerbi confirming Richarlison, Pape Sarr and Kevin Danso all requesting to leave the Club before the deadline. It's also understood that Archie Gray is attracting late interest from Brentford as the transfer window nears it's final conclusion.

Waking Up at 3am — Anxiety Relief to Get You Back to Sleep | Extended Exhale Breathing Waking up at 3am with anxiety is one of the loneliest experiences there is — your eyes open on their own, your heart is faster than it should be for someone lying perfectly still, and your mind has already found the one unfinished thought it saved up especially for now. This 10-minute guided meditation is built for exactly that hour. Martin explains why it happens: there is a small, ordinary rise in cortisol in the early hours meant to get your body ready for morning, and when you're anxious that rise arrives a little louder and wakes you. It isn't a warning. It isn't a sign. It's chemistry arriving early. From there the session uses extended exhale breathing — a gentle breath in, a brief pause, and an out-breath always longer than the in — because breathing out directly, mechanically slows your heart rate. It's the simplest somatic tool there is, and the one that works best lying down in the dark, when you don't want to count hard or hold anything. A warm light at the centre of the chest, gentle affirmations for sleep anxiety and insomnia relief, and three practical caring tips follow. If you drift off partway through, that's the point — let the voice fade.

Keith Wyche is a veteran Fortune 500 executive with four decades of senior leadership experience at companies including AT&T, IBM, Pitney Bowes, and Walmart. He currently serves as an independent director on the boards of Brinks and Internet Sciences and is the bestselling author of Uncommon Leadership, a blueprint for restoring integrity, trust, and people-centered leadership. In this episode, Keith shares lessons from his corporate career, explains what it really takes to climb the corporate ladder, and breaks down why performance alone isn't enough to succeed. On this episode we talk about: The sales and mentorship lessons Keith learned early in his career Why performance is only 50% of the equation for career advancement—and why exposure and perception matter How to intentionally build a personal brand and become known for adding value The importance of networking, relationships, and having people who can advocate for you Keith's leadership philosophy of competency, character, and consistency Top 3 Takeaways Your performance isn't the whole career equation. Keith explains that performance accounts for roughly 50% of professional success, while exposure and perception make up the other half. You need people to know who you are, what you bring to the table, and what you are known for. You already have a personal brand—build it intentionally. Whether you realize it or not, people have associations with you. Decide what you want to be known for and consistently reinforce that reputation through your actions and relationships. Trust is built through competency, character, and consistency. Keith's formula for earning trust requires all three. Being charismatic isn't enough; effective leaders create followership by consistently demonstrating competence and character. Notable Quotes "We all have a brand whether we realize it or not." "The equation to develop and earn trust from people is three things: competency times character times consistency." "Nobody, Travis, breaks through that glass ceiling on their own. Somebody who's already on the other side has to see you, recognize your value, and pull you through." Connect with Keith Wyche: LinkedIn: Keith Wyche Instagram: @therealkeithwyche Substack: Keith R.

As the Trump regime moves to subvert the midterms, thousands marched on Washington this week to defend voting rights. What will it take to defend those rights—and to stop the fascist regime attacking them?Sam talks with fellow Refuse Fascism leader Coco Das about the escalating assault on the elections, where the power to stop fascism actually lies, and what history can teach us about moments when ordinary political channels are under attack.They dig into the dangers of relying on the midterms to stop fascism, the potential for millions to break out of waiting and accommodation, and what needs to be built now to transform widespread outrage into sustained, nonviolent mass resistance.Mentioned in this episode:The Rolling Coup: Trump Must Go Now!This Week in Fascism: Week of August 24 by Paul StreetText REFUSE to 855-755-1314 or sign up online, follow @RefuseFascism on social media (@RefuseFashizm on TikTok) and our YouTube channel: @Refuse_Fascism.Support:Subscribe to Refuse Fascism on Substackpatreon.com/refusefascismdonate.refusefascism.orgVenmo: Refuse-FascismBuy merch (Big Cartel)Buy merch (Fourth Wall)Music for this episode: Penny the Snitch by Ikebe Shakedown
The Trump administration has announced a new set of harsh sanctions against Iran. This is a strange development since originally Trump launched a war on Iran on the pretext that sanctions weren't working. Trita Parsi of the Qunicy Institute argues the current tactic won't work and is a holding action as both the US and Iran bide their time in a long conflict. Parsi's writings can be found on his Substack. In the interview, we discuss his column on the surprising way many governments are rooting for Iran to check US imperialism.Advertising Inquiries: https://redcircle.com/brandsPrivacy & Opt-Out: https://redcircle.com/privacy
Episode OverviewCaptain Brian Shumaker of Susquehanna River Guides returns to The Articulate Fly fly fishing podcast for another Pennsylvania Smallmouth Report, breaking down how a fresh round of heavy late summer rain has muddied the Susquehanna and Juniata rivers and reshaped smallmouth positioning heading into Labor Day. Shumaker explains how localized thunderstorm tracks determine which branch of the Susquehanna blows out and which stays clean, meaning anglers who understand the West Branch/North Branch dynamic on the Susquehanna and the Juniata Valley's own storm patterns can often salvage half a river rather than write off an entire day. He details a mud line strategy for fishing the boundary between clear and discolored water and lays out when to stick with "bug" patterns tight to clear banks versus when to switch to intermediate lines and streamers in colors like black-and-purple or chartreuse-and-orange once water clarity drops off. As rising but still fishable flows push Susquehanna smallmouth tighter onto mid-river structure such as grass beds, islands and rock ledges, Shumaker also covers how those fish use discolored water the same way they use shade or cover, sitting in the murk to ambush prey. On the seasonal side, he notes that a lack of an early hard frost could extend the region's topwater bite into the back half of September.Key TakeawaysHow to read localized thunderstorm tracks to figure out which branch of the Susquehanna will blow out and which stays fishableWhy smallmouth bass hold in muddy or discolored water as an ambush point the same way they use shade or grass coverWhen to switch from "bug" fishing tight to clear banks over to streamer fishing once you move more than about five feet into discolored waterHow rising but still fishable Susquehanna flows push smallmouth bass tighter onto mid-river structure like grass beds, islands and rock ledgesWhy the lack of an early hard frost can extend Pennsylvania's topwater bite into late SeptemberHow to pick streamer colors like black-and-purple or chartreuse-and-orange with intermediate lines for muddy high water smallmouth fishingTechniques & Gear CoveredShumaker walks through a mud line approach that targets the seam between clear and discolored water where smallmouth bass concentrate during high flows alongside a two-track presentation strategy that pairs "bug" patterns fished tight to clear banks with streamer fishing once anglers move into muddier water. For the streamer side, he favors intermediate lines paired with baitfish-style patterns in black-and-purple or chartreuse-and-orange color combinations chosen for visibility in reduced-clarity conditions. He also touches on the difference between fishing wide island-studded water like the Susquehanna, where rising flows push bass onto mid-river grass beds, islands and rock ledges rather than tight to the bank, and smaller water where high flows more directly push fish toward bank structure.Locations & SpeciesThe report centers on the Susquehanna River, where the confluence of the West Branch and the North Branch determines which side of the river runs clean after localized storms, along with the Juniata River and its own Juniata Valley watershed. Target species is smallmouth bass, with Shumaker describing how rising but still fishable flows concentrate fish tighter onto mid-river grass beds, islands and rock ledges rather than spreading them out as they would be in normal lower water. Seasonally, the report is set in late summer heading into Labor Day, with Shumaker noting that, barring an early hard frost, the topwater bite could last into the back half of September.FAQ / Key Questions AnsweredHow does thunderstorm track affect fishing conditions on the Susquehanna and Juniata rivers?Shumaker explains that because the Susquehanna is fed by a West Branch and a North Branch, storms tracking from the west without moving north will muddy the West Branch and roughly half the river while the North Branch-fed side stays clear. A similar pattern plays out on the Juniata and the two systems meet near Duncannon, so anglers can often find fishable water somewhere even after heavy rain.Why do smallmouth bass hold in muddy or discolored water during high flows?Shumaker notes that bass treat discolored water the same way they treat shade or grass cover using it as an ambush point where they can sit unseen and dart out to grab prey that swims by even though the fish cannot see the same distance in dirty water that they could in clear conditions.When should anglers switch from "bug" fishing to streamers in high water?According to Shumaker, visibility along the banks typically holds for about one to five feet before the water turns too dirty, so anglers can still fish bug patterns tight to the bank and in the shade. Once they move beyond that clear margin into discolored water, he recommends switching to intermediate lines and streamers since fish cannot see a surface bug's silhouette well in reduced clarity.How does rising water change where Susquehanna smallmouth position themselves?Shumaker explains that on a wide river system like the Susquehanna, rising but still fishable flows push smallmouth bass tighter onto mid-river structure such as grass beds, islands and rock ledges.Why might a late hard frost extend Pennsylvania's smallmouth topwater activity into late September and beyond?Shumaker says that, without an early hard frost, the region's damsel activity and flying ant hatch, both of which are already good in the July-through-August window, could keep producing solid topwater opportunities into the second half of September rather than tapering off as usual.Related ContentS8, Ep 59 - Pennsylvania Smallmouth Report: Captain Brian Shumaker's Late Summer StrategiesS8, Ep 56 - Topwater Tactics: Captain Brian Shumaker's Pennsylvania Smallmouth ReportS8, Ep 52 - Hot Days and Night Bites: Brian Shumaker's Guide to Pennsylvania Smallmouth FishingS8, Ep 43 - Smallmouth Strategies and Seasonal Shifts: Captain Brian Shumaker's Pennsylvania ReportView all Pennsylvania Smallmouth Reports with Brian ShumakerConnect with Our GuestFollow Brian on Facebook and Instagram.Follow the ShowFollow The Articulate Fly on Facebook, Instagram, Threads and YouTube.Follow our Substack newsletter for episode updates, tips and resources.Support the ShowShop through our Amazon link to support the podcast.Join our Patreon community to support the show.If you are in the industry and need help getting unstuck, learn more about our consulting options.Subscribe & AdvertiseSubscribe to the podcast in your favorite podcast app.Think our community is a good fit for your brand?
