Lyme Disease Awareness is getting extra attention in Illinois. State Representative Dan Swanson's yearly resolution has been adopted in the House, urging Congress to increase funding for Lyme disease research and a cure. With House Resolution 32, May 2025 will be officially recognized as Lyme Disease Awareness Month across the state. The resolution also encourages the Illinois State Board of Education to implement health education programs, targeting children who are at the greatest risk for tick-borne illnesses. Swanson emphasized the importance of early prevention as cases continue to rise in the region. Lawmakers hope these efforts can help protect families statewide.

At the Illinois House of Representatives' annual Memorial Day tribute, lawmakers solemnly honored state soldiers who died in the past year. State Representative Dan Swanson spoke about the significance of Memorial Day, reflecting on the deep impact these losses have on Gold Star families. Swanson also criticized the Chicago Sky WNBA team for remaining in the locker room during the National Anthem, suggesting their actions failed to honor fallen service members. After facing backlash online, the Sky published a Memorial Day message, but further controversy erupted when fans pointed out the team appeared to confuse Memorial Day with Veterans Day in their tribute.

Transforming How We Work: Rethinking Operating Models with Jen from Talk Point Advisory Group In this thought-provoking conversation, I sat down with Jen from Talk Point Advisory Group, a boutique consulting firm that helps organizations reimagine and revitalize how they operate. We dove deep into the often-overlooked world of operating models — the blueprint behind how work gets done — and why companies need to stop letting these frameworks evolve by default. Rethinking How Work Gets Done Jen and I explored how an organization's operating model influences everything from decision-making to resource allocation. She shared powerful insights about making these models more intentional, especially when “invisible rules” — embodied by figures like the mythical “Beth” who holds power without a title — shape how teams function. I emphasized that when organizations fail to design and adapt their operating models, they often become the next cautionary tale — a statistic in the high failure rate of businesses unable to pivot in a changing market. Legacy Systems vs. the Digital Future Too often, companies bring in top talent with high hopes but then box them into outdated systems. Jen and I discussed how legacy organizations must shift from rigid, project-based structures to nimble, product-focused approaches. This isn't just about upgrading systems — it's about transforming culture, developing new skill sets, and staying laser-focused on customer experience. Because in this fast-moving digital age, survival depends on relevance. Breaking Down Silos: A Lesson from 3M We've all seen the damage siloed thinking can do. I shared how industrial-age approaches, like those once used by GM, keep innovation locked behind walls. Jen illustrated how companies like 3M broke free — giving employees space to experiment, leading to inventions like the Post-it Note. This isn't just a story about sticky paper; it's a testament to the power of cross-functional freedom and creative autonomy. Collaboration That Fuels Innovation Jen highlighted the power of horizontal collaboration in successful product teams. Drawing inspiration from NASA's Apollo 13 mission and our everyday digital tools, she emphasized how solutions to complex problems emerge when different disciplines truly work together — not in silos, but side-by-side. The Overlooked Power of Marketing In one of my favorite moments, I admitted I wish I had focused more on marketing in college — it's that essential. Jen and I talked about why marketing isn't just a department, it's a growth engine. When accounting and marketing speak the same language, businesses gain the insight to fuel smart investments and sustainable expansion — especially during challenging times like inflation or global uncertainty. Culture Drives Everything Culture isn't just a buzzword — it's the soul of your organization. I reflected on transforming a healthcare organization by simply listening and responding to what our people needed. Jen and I agreed: when organizations clarify decision-making and empower their teams, magic happens. Engagement rises, turnover drops, and performance soars. Fixing the Customer Experience (for Real) Improving customer experience isn't a quick fix — it requires rooting out the hidden obstacles: tech inefficiencies, outdated processes, and — you guessed it — silos. Jen walked us through how her team helps organizations simplify, streamline, and finally push past the 75% “stuck” point where so many give up. We wrapped up by underscoring the need for persistent effort and aligned support, and I encouraged our listeners to connect with Jen and the team at Talk Point Advisory Group for guidance. Ready to Rethink Your Operating Model? If you're ready to stop leaving your organization's performance to chance, this episode is a must-listen.

Illinois continues to see a troubling trend: a significant population decline, especially among young adults and families. Since April 2020, the state's population under 18 has dropped by 6.1%, outpacing the national decline. Wealthy millennials and young professionals are also leaving, citing difficult public policies. State Representative Dan Swanson is proposing HB1501, a bill targeting one major barrier for young Illinoisans: access to farmland. The legislation would offer tax credits to those selling or renting agricultural assets to beginner farmers. Swanson says soaring land prices—now exceeding $20,000 an acre—make farming unattainable without family inheritance.

Heather Swanson v. Michael Hilgers

Lina Tharsing and Liz Swanson, Lexington-based artists featured in the Lexington Art League's “Axis Mundi” exhibition, join Kate to discuss the deep thematic roots and personal resonances behind their work. Liz reflects on her fascination with the ethereal—clouds painted atop near-forgotten architectural renderings, exploring temporality, memory, and the shifting value of creative artifacts. Lyna shares how profound loss and dreams of her late parents led her to paint luminous landscapes and “portals,” searching for thin places where the boundaries between worlds feel especially permeable. Together, they contemplate ideas of grief, gratitude, connection, and the vital need for meaningful community gatherings—moments that, both in their work and in the energetic exhibition opening, transcend the everyday and invite viewers into a richer, more tender understanding of life and art.For more and to connect with us, visit https://www.artsconnectlex.org/art-throb-podcast.html

1 in 16 people in the US are affected by fibromyalgia, and 1 in 13 women specifically—that's about 6.4% of the population. To put these statistics in perspective, breast cancer affects 1 in 8 women, cervical cancer affects 1 in 13 women, and colon cancer affects 1 in 25 women and 1 in 23 men. Despite the similarity in prevalence, fibromyalgia has a long way to go in terms of awareness and medical training when compared to these other conditions.  In our mission to improve this, a critical avenue for increasing awareness has been obtaining official proclamations for states to recognize May as Fibromyalgia Awareness Month and May 12th as Fibromyalgia Awareness Day. Governor's Proclamations are powerful tools that help advocates validate the struggles faced by fibromyalgia patients and garner support from state officials. This can lead to increased funding for research and better resources for those of us living with fibromyalgia. Today, Tami is joined by her best friend and fellow advocate, Melissa Swanson. A few years ago, Tami and Melissa decided to bring together their communities, along with several other fibromyalgia organizations, and coordinate the efforts to obtain a Governor's Proclamation in every state. Their goal is to "color the map purple" for fibromyalgia awareness, and Melissa is the coordinator for this effort. In this conversation, Melissa and Tami discuss what a Governor's Proclamation is, how it helps to raise credibility and awareness, the steps involved in requesting a Governor's Proclamation, the criteria we make sure to cover in Proclamation requests, why May 12th was chosen as Fibromyalgia Awareness Day, working with various fibromyalgia organizations to obtain Proclamations, how Melissa helps individuals with the application process, their progress on the goal ot “color the map purple”, the benefits of coordinating with various groups in obtaining Proclamations, how you can help in your state, how collective efforts strengthen the push for fibromyalgia awareness, reasons for denial of Proclamation requests, the application timeline and how the process varies by state, Melissa's preparations for the next round of applications, the ongoing need for help regardless of your state's status, Tami's experience requesting a Governor's Proclamation in Oregon, statistics on fibromyalgia's prevalence among the U.S., why we need your help, upcoming events related to Fibromyalgia Awareness Day, and more. Every voice matters in the fight for awareness and support for fibromyalgia. Let's work together to make a difference.   Note: This episode is not meant to be medical advice. Every person and every situation is unique. The information you learn in this episode should be shared and discussed with your own healthcare providers.

Scripture: Deuteronomy 6:4–9, Deuteronomy 4:9, Mark 10:13–16 Pastor Vicki Harrison opens our new series, Faith That Leaves a Legacy, with a powerful message on what it means to pass on our faith to the next generation. She challenges us to think beyond material inheritance and instead consider the spiritual mark we leave on our children, our church, and our community. Drawing from Deuteronomy, Pastor Vicki reminds us that God calls His people to impress His commands on their children—not casually or occasionally, but as part of daily life. In Mark's Gospel, we see Jesus welcome and bless children, making it clear that they matter in the Kingdom of God. The message features a video interview with Miriam Swanson, Global Student Mission Leader and Director of Fusion USA. Miriam shares insight on what young adults today are longing for: not perfect programs, but people. Real connection. Authentic love. Presence over performance. Pastor Vicki reflects on the church's responsibility to walk alongside young people. She shares personal stories, including how difficult it was for her own children to find churches that welcomed them during college. Her reminder is clear: one person showing up can make all the difference. This week's takeaway: the next generation doesn't need another polished event—they need someone who cares. Leaving a spiritual legacy starts with showing up, speaking life, and living the Gospel with humility and love. Discussion Questions What is the role of the church for the next generation? What are some practical steps you can take to reach youth and young adults? What are some challenges the church faces as we seek to reach the next generation? What does it mean that presence is more important than programming? How did Jesus exemplify this? What might we need to let go of in order to reach both the lost and the next generation for Jesus?

262. Why Are So Many People Homeschooling? With Monica Swanson   Proverbs 19:21 (NIV) Many are the plans in a person's heart, but it is the Lord's purpose that prevails.   Monica Swanson and her husband, Dave (a hospital physician), are raising four sons on the North Shore of Oahu, Hawaii. They have graduated three sons, and homeschool the other one, and they spend much of their free time supporting their sons' competitive surfing and enjoying all that Hawaii has to offer. Monica's background is in sports medicine and fitness, and she shares inspiration for balanced living, as well as recipes, stories, and a ton of encouragement for families on her blog at MonicaSwanson.com.   Questions and Topics We Discuss: According to analysis from The Washington Post, homeschooling has become the fastest-growing form of education in America. Why do you believe there has been a shift in the perception and implementation of homeschooling? In chapter 1, you share "20 Good Reasons to Homeschool Your Kids." Will you share a couple favorites from your list? What are the three steps you recommend to begin?   HSLDA Website   Number One Most Popular Episode on The Savvy Sauce from 2023: #1 from 2023: School Series: Benefits of Homeschooling with Jodi Mockabee    Thank You to Our Sponsor: Midwest Food Bank   Connect with The Savvy Sauce on Facebook or Instagram or Our Website.   Please help us out by sharing this episode with a friend, leaving a 5-star rating and review on Apple Podcasts, and subscribing to this podcast!   Gospel Scripture: (all NIV)   Romans 3:23 “for all have sinned and fall short of the glory of God,”   Romans 3:24 “and are justified freely by his grace through the redemption that came by Christ Jesus.”   Romans 3:25 (a) “God presented him as a sacrifice of atonement, through faith in his blood.”    Hebrews 9:22 (b) “without the shedding of blood there is no forgiveness.”    Romans 5:8 “But God demonstrates his own love for us in this: While we were still sinners, Christ died for us.”    Romans 5:11 “Not only is this so, but we also rejoice in God through our Lord Jesus Christ, through whom we have now received reconciliation.”    John 3:16 “For God so loved the world that he gave his one and only Son, that whoever believes in him shall not perish but have eternal life.”   Romans 10:9 “That if you confess with your mouth, “Jesus is Lord,” and believe in your heart that God raised him from the dead, you will be saved.”    Luke 15:10 says “In the same way, I tell you, there is rejoicing in the presence of the angels of God over one sinner who repents.”   Romans 8:1 “Therefore, there is now no condemnation for those who are in Christ Jesus”   Ephesians 1:13–14 “And you also were included in Christ when you heard the word of truth, the gospel of your salvation. Having believed, you were marked in him with a seal, the promised Holy Spirit, who is a deposit guaranteeing our inheritance until the redemption of those who are God's possession- to the praise of his glory.”   Ephesians 1:15–23 “For this reason, ever since I heard about your faith in the Lord Jesus and your love for all the saints, I have not stopped giving thanks for you, remembering you in my prayers. I keep asking that the God of our Lord Jesus Christ, the glorious Father, may give you the spirit of wisdom and revelation, so that you may know him better. I pray also that the eyes of your heart may be enlightened in order that you may know the hope to which he has called you, the riches of his glorious inheritance in the saints, and his incomparably great power for us who believe. That power is like the working of his mighty strength, which he exerted in Christ when he raised him from the dead and seated him at his right hand in the heavenly realms, far above all rule and authority, power and dominion, and every title that can be given, not only in the present age but also in the one to come. And God placed all things under his feet and appointed him to be head over everything for the church, which is his body, the fullness of him who fills everything in every way.”   Ephesians 2:8–10 “For it is by grace you have been saved, through faith – and this not from yourselves, it is the gift of God – not by works, so that no one can boast. For we are God‘s workmanship, created in Christ Jesus to do good works, which God prepared in advance for us to do.“   Ephesians 2:13 “But now in Christ Jesus you who once were far away have been brought near through the blood of Christ.“   Philippians 1:6 “being confident of this, that he who began a good work in you will carry it on to completion until the day of Christ Jesus.”

On November 16th, 1981, 53-year-old Priscilla Dinkel and her 7-year-old granddaughter Danelle Lietz were murdered at The Swanson Motel in Dickinson, North Dakota. The case went cold until 1991, when local law enforcement utilized an FBI profile to identify the killer. Join Mike and Gibby as they discuss the Swanson motel murders. The police followed leads down into Texas and even looked at Henry Lee Lucas as a possible suspect. Then, in 1991, authorities began looking at a 48-year-old named William Reager who fit the FBI profile. Reager was a drifter who worked as a truck driver and a carnival employee.

In Illinois, a new legislative move aims to reward firefighters with academic credit. House Bill 1149, championed by Representative Dan Swanson, has successfully passed the House with a unanimous 115-0 vote. The bill mandates that higher education institutions in the state grant academic credits for firefighter training, similar to the existing arrangement for EMT training. Swanson believes that this incentive could encourage more individuals to pursue volunteer firefighting roles or further their educational pursuits. The next step for the bill is the Senate, where it awaits further deliberation.

Ant Williams is a freediving athlete featured in the third episode of The Adventure Series titled "Ice Dive" that's co-produced by Apple and Atlantic Studios (formerly Atlantic Productions). In the episode, Williams attempts to swim a world record distance 182 meters under ice, and I wanted to get some additional behind-the-scenes context on his experience as well as what it was like to have the most intense month of his life condensed down into a 15-minute Apple Immersive Video. Williams is a sports psychologist who wanted to put his theories into practice by taking what he calls "positive, calculated risk-taking challenges" that allow him to deal with overwhelming anxiety, and overcome his fears, uncertainty, and self-doubt. I also wanted to get some additional context on the production of the episode as Apple has otherwise been pretty tight-lipped about the series, launched with which launched with "Highlining" on the same day as the Apple Vision Pro launch on February 2, 2024. Apple Immersive Video is a different format than spatial video. Apple says "spatial videos are captured in 1080p at 30 frames per second in standard dynamic range," and these are what can be captured by either an iPhone or Apple Vision Pro, and they are displayed in a windowed frame where you see the stereoscopic effects. Apple describes Apple Immersive Video as "a remarkable storytelling format that leverages 3D video recorded in 8K with a 180-degree field of view and Spatial Audio to transport viewers to the center of the action." Apple Immersive Video is much closer to what we've seen from the XR industry and VR 180 filmmakers from the past decade, and Apple's technology is likely derived from their 2020 acquisition of NextVR. NextVR focused on live stereoscopic broadcasts of sports events on VR headsets starting with the Samsung Gear VR and Oculus Rift in 2014. A lot of the technical specifications of the Apple Immersive Video format have not been officially confirmed by Apple, but there are a couple of breadcrumbs that give us some more details. Thanks to iFixIt's breakdown of the Apple Vision Pro on February 7, 2024, then we know the microOLED display size is reported as "the lit area totals 3660 px by 3200 px." 360 Labs' Mike Rowell wrote a post on March 19, 2024 saying, "Apple Vision Pro's screens are a whopping 3660 x 3200 pixels per eye. Although they haven't made any official claims as to the FOV of the headset, 3rd party developers claim that it looks to be around 100° horizontal. With each screen having 3,660 horizontal pixels, this would mean that a 180° immersive experience would need about 6,000 x 6,000 pixels per eye to saturate the display. Apple's own immersive experiences have been reported at being 4320x4320 per eye at 90fps and in HDR10." The reporting of Apple's immersive experiences was detailed by Mike Swanson, who announced a spatial video tool on March 7, 2024 that leverages the Apple's AVFoundation to properly encode video into the "multiview extensions of the HEVC codec, known as MV-HEVC" format. Swanson says in his post, "I receive multiple messages and files every day from people who are trying to find the limits of what the Apple Vision Pro is capable of playing. You can start with the 4320×4320 per-eye 90fps content that Apple is producing and go up from there. I've personally played up to “12K” (11520×5760) per eye 360-degree stereo video at 30fps." Another clue can be found in the Blackmagic URSA Cine Immersive camera that was announced on June 10, 2024, which says, "The sensor delivers 8160 x 7200 resolution per eye with pixel level synchronization and an incredible 16 stops of dynamic range, so cinematographers can shoot 90fps stereoscopic 3D immersive cinema content to a single file." Incidentally, Currents director Jake Oleson told me that he used Swanson's tool to create his immersive film after shooting it in 8k on the Canon EOS R5 Camera Body with Canon's Dual Fisheye lens.

(Original pub date: 3/11/20) While the Coen brothers refuse to confirm it, many believe that their movie "Fargo" was inspired by the Carol Thompson murder case. She was viciously killed in her comfortable Saint Paul home by a hitman hired by her eccentric husband, T. Eugene Thompson, in March of 1963, leaving behind four small children. It was an absolutely sensational case, one not only covered extensively by local press, but by national and international press as well. Longtime journalist William Swanson covers the case with me. His book is called "Dial M: The Murder of Carol Thompson". The author's Amazon author page: https://www.amazon.com/stores/William-Swanson/author/B001JSC22G Learn more about your ad choices.
