What's happening in Tallahassee this week has the potential to not only to reshape homeownership in Florida permanently, but potentially across the country eventually.
The Orlando Pride hosted Bay FC and made it two straight wins for the first time in 2026. Orlando continued its successful ways against California-based teams with another standout performance by striker Barbra Banda. The Zambian international scored two goals and set up another to lead the Pride to another big three points on the cusp of the World Cup break. Jacquie Ovalle and Zara Chavoshi came off the bench, taking the Pride two steps closer to having a healthy roster.It wasn't all good news, however. The game was fun until Banda picked up an injury late in the game and now we wait to see what the severity is. Losing Banda for any length of time is not ideal for a team reliant on her for goals and hovering near the bottom of the playoff places.We break down the Pride's 3-1 win at home, look back at our score predictions, and make our selections for Player of the Match.This week's mailbagbox asked about Nicole Payne, Tallahassee-based side TLH Reckoning, Orlando Pride players as USWNT starters, and more.

These games should be good tests for Emma Hayes' side, and it will be fun to watch Orlando's Brazilians play for their national team.If you'd like to support our independent writing and podcasting efforts, we'd love to have you as a subscriber or donor over at our Buy Me a Coffee site.Here's how Episode 125 went down:0:15 – Orlando has its first winning streak of the season with a victory over Bay FC.19:04 - The mailbagbox takes us into the summer break.32:45 - The USWNT heads to Brazil to face a good team with several Pride players on it.
Human connection cannot be automated away in hospitality. Michelle Pascoe, Certified Speaking Professional and hospitality training expert with over 30 years' experience, sits down with Brian Vujnovic, CEO and Co-Founder of MIA Hospitality Management, to explore how AI is reshaping hotel operations and guest experiences while the human touch remains the irreplaceable core of the industry. Can technology make us more human in hospitality -- or does it risk taking away the very thing guests come for? Michelle Pascoe is a Certified Speaking Professional and hospitality training expert with over 30 years' experience helping clubs, hotels, and hospitality venues build service cultures that retain staff and delight guests. Michelle brings together global voices to explore what it really takes to lead, connect, and deliver excellence in hospitality. Brian Vujnovic brings 25+ years of hotel operations, development, and asset management expertise. His view is clear: AI will automate the administrative so that hospitality teams can invest more in the experiential. The guest who wants a seamless text interaction gets that. The guest who wants a human moment gets that too. Both are possible -- and both are necessary. Key Takeaways AI is most actively reshaping hospitality through marketing search optimisation and front-desk administrative automation, not yet through robotics or culinary replacement. The ultimate goal of AI in hotels is to remove administrative burden from guest-facing staff so they can dedicate more attention to the person in front of them. Leadership in hospitality has grown harder post-Covid, with leaders now required to be more patient, more present, and more invested in training multigenerational teams. Ambition is the quality that cannot be trained or installed -- and it is the number one thing emerging leaders need to go counter to the trend and build a meaningful hospitality career. Off-site community connection, particularly giving back locally, is proving to be one of the most effective retention tools for Gen Z hospitality teams.

Hidden Killers With Tony Brueski | True Crime News & Commentary
For more than a decade, the Dan Markel case has produced conviction after conviction. What it has not produced is a charge against the two people prosecutors have repeatedly named as part of the conspiracy: Wendi Adelson and her father, Harvey. We dig into why.Markel, an FSU law professor, was shot in his Tallahassee garage in 2014 amid a bitter post-divorce battle with Wendi over their two sons and her thwarted attempt to relocate to South Florida. The state's theory has always been that the family wanted that move badly enough to kill for it. Two hitmen, a go-between, Wendi's brother Charlie, and her mother Donna have all been convicted.The evidentiary record around the two who remain uncharged is its own story. Wendi has testified across multiple trials, each time under limited immunity — protection that evaporates only if she lied under oath. Harvey has never taken the stand, but cell records introduced at trial reportedly showed contact between a phone connected to him and a phone tied to one of the hitmen, and he was beside Donna at the airport with one-way tickets to a non-extradition country when she was arrested.After Donna's conviction, the State Attorney signaled decisions within weeks. Months on, nothing has surfaced. Our guest — a defense attorney and former prosecutor — walks through what that delay typically means, how a perjury theory against an immunized witness would actually have to be proven, and whether the evidence on Harvey ever crossed the threshold prosecutors said it hadn't.Links:Join Our SubStack For AD-FREE ADVANCE EPISODES & EXTRAS!: https://hiddenkillers.substack.com/Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

Sup chomos! This week on Your Mamas Place, Tina is out doing some broad shit, so is Tom Segura is joined by comedian Joe DeRosa for a wide-ranging conversation that starts with ranking comedy's biggest peer pressure artists, from Rogan's blunt "don't be a bitch" to Chappelle's devastating silent look that you simply cannot say no to. They flip it around and dig into the opposite problem: friends who commit to a full night out and then bail halfway through dinner (you know who you are, Chrissy). Joe also opens up about the very real injustice of being perpetually single in a world that gives parents an automatic excuse for everything, then shares the best piece of comedy advice he ever received, straight from Patton Oswalt, about why every great joke needs a "moment of discovery." The guys get candid about their wildly different relationships with alcohol, including a truly unhinged Burt Kreischer story from Tallahassee. Then it's clip time featuring a cool collector with an encyclopedic knowledge of cheap plastic lawn chairs, a fully-committed DIY tooth extraction, a pizza shop owner fighting invisible gender discrimination, and a white woman reading some hilarious Instagram insults about her dumb sun outfit.

The 2026 offseason is officially in high gear as Aaron Rodgers hits the practice field! We break down his massive new contract and exactly what his return means for the franchise as the Super Bowl window bursts wide open in Pittsburgh. Baltimore RavensWhat We Cover In This Episode:Rodgers' Swan Song: Aaron Rodgers officially signed his 1-year, $22.5M fully guaranteed deal and is physically putting the work in at OTAs. We address the Charlie Batch premium and debate if this is definitively a one-and-done rental for a ring. A to Z SportsDecoding McCarthy's Comments: Breaking down Mike McCarthy's exact quote about Rodgers' command being "lightyears ahead of schedule." This new scheme relies entirely on pre-snap adjustments, completely burying the past offensive eras.Drew Allar vs. The Media Panic: Drew Allar is taking 4th-string reps, exactly where a raw rookie belongs. We aggressively crush the national media's ridiculous "tear down his mechanics" panic narrative.The Left Side Shuffle: Troy Fautanu and Mason McCormick are dominating the left side of the line during initial OTA drills. McCarthy is actively building a terrifying, mauler-heavy wall next to Max Iheanachor to lock down Rodgers' blindspot.Early OTA Risers & Standouts: Germie Bernard is already catching passes directly from Rodgers, fully capitalizing on "football in shorts." We highlight the young players showing up in peak physical condition and making massive early cases for increased reps.The Rooney Rule Lawsuit Distraction: Florida AG James Uthmeier subpoenaed the NFL over the Rooney Rule, demanding an appearance in Tallahassee on June 12. We debate how Omar Khan and the front office navigate this massive off-field legal noise.Final Thoughts & Looking Ahead: We lock in the absolute biggest takeaway from week one of OTAs and set clear expectations for the storylines you need to watch as mandatory minicamp approaches.Drop your thoughts in the comments—does Aaron Rodgers returning make the Steelers the absolute favorites to win the AFC North?Music by The Sidh thesidh.itAnnouncer: Andy Hart Cat Country 106.3 https://www.catcountry1063fm.com/#steelersnation #AaronRodgers #SteelersNews

All right college sports fans, wide receiver Jamarin Simmons has committed to the Tigers for Clemson football's 2027 recruiting class. It's a big early win for wide receivers coach Tyler Grisham and offensive coordinator Chad Morris (not to mention head coach Dabo Swinney, a former receivers coach himself). They call Simmons, from Tallahassee, Fla., “Waffle House,” because it seems he's always open! He measures up at 5-11, 165 pounds, and is a consensus four-star prospect out of Godby High School. He is committed to join Clemson before the 2027 season, when current star receivers Bryant Wesco and T.J. Moore will become draft eligible. Longtime sports journalists Daniel Shirley and Bill Zimmerman have analysis of Simmons' game, his importance in the program, the impact he can have on this recruiting class for Swinney, and much more. #clemsonrecruiting #clemsonfootball #daboswinney #jamarinsimmons #footballrecruiting We're glad you found us -- y'all be sure to share your reactions in the comments (keep it family-friendly for the young fans), and find us on social media @ClemsonKickoff!
Former prison employee and whistleblower Noella Turnage alleged that Ghislaine Maxwell received unusually favorable treatment while incarcerated at Federal Prison Camp Bryan in Texas, claiming Maxwell enjoyed privileges unavailable to ordinary inmates. According to leaked emails and internal communications described by Turnage, Maxwell allegedly had private family visits arranged with snacks, bottled water, and reserved visitation areas for relatives traveling from the United Kingdom. Turnage claimed the accommodations were so extensive that regular visitation for other inmates was reportedly shut down on at least one occasion to make room for Maxwell's family visits. Maxwell allegedly wrote to her brother describing the experience as so surreal that it felt like she had “dropped through Alice in Wonderland's looking glass.”The allegations added to growing scrutiny over whether Maxwell has been treated differently from other federal inmates since her transfer from the more restrictive facility in Tallahassee to the lower-security prison camp in Texas. Turnage claimed Maxwell had unusually direct access to prison leadership and received special deliveries of food and water directly to her cell, while former inmates also accused her of skipping lines and acting entitled inside the prison. The Bureau of Prisons declined to comment specifically on Maxwell but said allegations of preferential treatment are taken seriously because they violate institutional policy. The claims have fueled broader criticism that Maxwell, despite her conviction for helping Jeffrey Epstein traffic and abuse underage girls, continues to receive accommodations and protections far beyond what ordinary federal prisoners would ever expect.to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.comsource:Ghislaine Maxwell 'boasted about VIP treatment in prison & used special relationship with jail warden to get rare perks'
Host Dave Fiore sits down with Nicole Everett, creator and host of "Conversations with Nicole" — a Tallahassee-based show on YouTube that started as a series of weekly lunches with photos posted on Facebook. It grew into a platform with a Roku channel, a local TV run and an audience that has followed her through every evolution. Nicole has spent most of her adult life in rooms where people needed someone to really listen. Fifteen years at the Tallahassee Lenders Consortium helping first-time homebuyers get mortgage-ready and into their first homes. Seven years at Florida Housing Finance Corporation overseeing three statewide foreclosure programs. And a decade of sit-down conversations that have a way of going places guests never quite expected. She grew up in North Dade County — the first Black family on her block in a neighborhood that turned out to be as diverse in culture as it was in cuisine. FAMU brought her to Tallahassee, but her career and the community she experienced here made it home. "Conversations with Nicole" found her during a quieter season — after her son left for college and she started exploring, taking classes, going to poetry shows and just figuring out what came next. The answer was 10 seasons of the show and counting with episodes that impact the dialog in our community. Dave and Nicole talk about community, mental health, homeownership and what it really means to hold space for people — because for Nicole, the show was never really about production. It was always about the conversation. Show Notes Website LinkedIn YouTube Facebook Spotify Apple Podcast _________________________________ Thanks for listening to Tallahassee's Podcast.

What does it look like to build an entire pet care business around cats? Maria Estes, founder of All About Cats Pet Sitting in Tallahassee, Florida, shares how a side gig started for income and joy grew into a thriving cat-specific business with over 900 clients. She explains why specialization matters, how feline behavior and medical needs have shaped her services, and why trust and communication are central to client peace of mind. Maria also talks about learning to let go, building a team, and finding the right people through rescue work, clients, and community relationships. Her story is a reminder that going deep into one niche can create stronger care, clearer boundaries, and a more meaningful business. Main topics: Building cat-specific services Trust through client communication Medical and behavioral care Growing beyond solo sitting Finding joy through specialization Main takeaway: "It's okay to be specialized in one area." Maria Estes built All About Cats Pet Sitting around a clear focus: cats. Not every pet care business has to serve every pet, every client, or every possible need. Sometimes the strength of a business comes from knowing exactly who you serve and committing to serving them well. Specialization allows us to deepen our education, improve our communication, and provide care that truly fits the animal in front of us. For Maria, that means cat-specific care rooted in trust, behavior knowledge, and peace of mind for the people who love them. About out guest: Maria Estes is the founder of All About Cats Pet Sitting in Tallahassee, Florida. She launched the business in 2010 with an exclusive focus on cat care after a 20-year career as an ultrasonographer specializing in high-risk pregnancies. Maria is a Certified Professional Pet Sitter and is also certified in cat training and bereavement support. Through her work, she focuses on specialized feline care, client trust, medical needs, behavior awareness, and helping cat guardians feel confident while they are away.

This week we jump into a huge college baseball weekend as FSU and Miami collide in Tallahassee. We salute Bobby Cox and break down Tony Vitello's bullpen mixup.Then it's all Marlins: a 4–6 homestand, the Phillies heating up, and the youth movement taking shape with top prospects Joe Mack and Robby Snelling leading the way.We discuss Xavier Edwards' power surge and Otto Lopez quietly becoming one of MLB's most underrated hitters. Then we grade our preseason takes on Agustin Ramirez, Eury Pérez, and the slumping outfield trio of Owen Caissie, Jakob Marsee, and Kyle Stowers.We close with the American League. The Yankees and Rays look headed for a collision, Junior Caminero is a superstar, and the AL West is so bleak that we are openly rooting for playoff baseball in Sacramento.
A hantavirus has captured the world's attention, especially here in Florida, where the cruise industry has a big footprint.

Florida Governor Ron DeSantis joins Uncommon Knowledge with Peter Robinson at the Governor's Mansion in Tallahassee to explain how Florida transformed from a razor-thin swing state into one of the fastest-growing and most politically distinct states in the country. DeSantis outlines his governing philosophy—pairing conservative policy with a focus on competence—and details the results: rapid population growth, rising revenues without an income tax, debt reduction, and a dramatic political realignment. He reflects on controversial decisions during COVID, his approach to education reform and school choice, and high-profile battles with corporations, universities, and cultural institutions. The discussion also explores broader themes, including the decline of identity politics, the future of the Republican Party, and the enduring relevance of America's founding principles.

DOT Blitz Week is almost here, and the freight market is already starting to twitch. On this week's episode of The Transfix Take, Jenni Ruiz and Maze break down the key signals brokers, shippers, and carriers should be watching as diesel rises, capacity tightens, and tender rejections prepare for a potential climb. Diesel is back in focus, with national on-highway prices sitting at $5.64 per gallon, up 30 cents, while linehaul rates remain relatively steady around $1.97 per mile. But with DOT Blitz Week one week away, Maze expects the market to shift quickly, especially as long-haul capacity comes off the road and contractual freight starts getting rejected. Here's what we cover: • Tender rejections are sitting just under 14%, but Maze expects that number to rise as DOT Blitz Week begins. • The Southeast is tightening, with Florida markets like Jacksonville, Miami, and Tallahassee showing notable gains. • The South and coastal regions are splitting, with southern markets tightening while parts of Virginia and the Mid-Atlantic continue to loosen. • The Midwest and Northeast are cooling, but long-haul freight heading west remains a key pressure point. • The West Coast is softening overall, though California remains the market to watch. • The spot market is calm for now, but that could change fast as rejections rise and carriers play into market favorability. With DOT Blitz Week around the corner, this is the week to watch the market closely and have a plan ready before volatility hits. -- Disclaimer: All views and opinions expressed in this podcast are those of the speakers and do not necessarily reflect the views or positions of Transfix, Inc. or any parent companies or affiliates or the companies with which the participants are affiliated, and may have been previously disseminated by them.

Ever since Ghislaine Maxwell was moved from a higher-security facility in Tallahassee to the minimum-security Federal Prison Camp Bryan in Texas, whispers of special privileges have swirled. Inmates and prison consultants say she's getting “hotel-guest treatment”—meals delivered to her cell, private visits in the chapel while others are locked down, solo yard time, and generally softer security protocols. Her arrival reportedly triggered more frequent lockdowns, added armed guards, and even a facility “cleanup” beforehand, which many see as signs she's not being treated like a typical prisoner.Experts and former corrections officials call the move deeply unusual. Maxwell, convicted of aiding Epstein's trafficking of minors and serving a 20-year sentence, typically wouldn't qualify for camp status at all—especially with her “public safety factor” as a sex offender. The fact that she was allowed into a prison known for lax fences, dormitory housing, and relatively lenient conditions is fueling suspicion that her cooperation with federal prosecutors (including interviews about Epstein's network) earned her perks. Critics argue this undermines both justice for survivors and public trust in the prison system.to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.comsource:Ghislaine Maxwell granted unusual privileges at minimum-security prison | Fox News
