Jill and Tom opened the show with a brief acknowledgment of the podcast's apparent popularity in Sweden. Amusingly, the show is described on Poddtroppen—a Swedish podcast download site—as a “Komedie.” Moving on, the hosts discussed yet another—massive—Ford recall. Tom suggests a reason why Ford might be in the trouble its in. Still in the first segment, the hosts dig into Volvo's recently announced decision to layoff 15-percent of its U.S. workforce. Next, Jill reviews the 2025 Subaru WRX tS, with manual transmission. In the second segment Jill and Tom welcome Jennifer Stockburger of Consumer Reports to the show. Jennifer discussed the Consumer Reports recently published Best Cars for Teens lists, and what went into creating them. In the last segment Jill is subjected to Tom's “Saab!” quiz—which includes a Swedish-themed bonus question. And, as the show wraps up, Jill pledged to try and get passed Apple CarPlay.

A lot has happened since the last episode of GTAA. Trump renamed the Gulf of Mexico the Gulf of America (thus ending our long national nightmare of having to accept an "of Mexico" body of water touching our sacred American soil), and Matt McManus came to L.A., where he and Ben Burgis did a live event to discuss Matt's book on liberal socialism. Ben's talks about the former (and other possibly more consequential aspects of Trump 2.0) in the Opening Argument, and then we play the full video of the latter.

In this best-of episode, New Drivers, New Dangers: Navigating Substance Use with Teen Drivers, hosts Jodie, Amy, and Rick share powerful strategies for guiding teens safely through the risks of driving, peer pressure, and substance use. As teens reach the milestone of driving, this episode equips parents with actionable tools to foster safe, responsible habits on the road and address the unique risks tied to adolescent brain development.   From proactive preparation to fostering open discussions about substance use and impaired driving, our experts cover essential topics for supporting teen drivers. Rick shares practical steps for building a supportive environment, where teens feel comfortable discussing sensitive topics. By incorporating technology and setting clear expectations, parents can ensure their young drivers are equipped to make smart choices and stay safe on the road.   Key Takeaways: Proactive preparation is crucial as teens obtain their driver's license, requiring parents' guidance to navigate potential risks. Fostering smart pedestrian habits and consistent skill refinement contribute to driving competence and overall road safety. Differentiating between behaviors and driving decisions helps teens make responsible choices and avoid driving under the influence (DUI). Open conversations, starting with initial dialogue, establish a foundation for discussing sensitive topics such as drug use and driving. Creating a safe haven at home encourages discussions about drug use and driving, while contracts engage teens in the process. Utilizing technology like apps and advanced drivers' education enhances monitoring and promotes responsible driving behaviors. Acknowledging the impact of drugs on driving abilities and emphasizing responsible choices is paramount for teen drivers' safety.   Rick Birt: Rick Birt is the Director of the Washington, DC Highway Safety Office and an international mobility safety expert. Formerly the CEO of Students Against Destructive Decisions (SADD), Rick has over a decade of experience in youth advocacy and traffic safety. Through his leadership, he continues to educate and engage communities in safe driving practices. @RickBirt   Jodie Sweetin is an actress, author, and advocate, best known for her role as Stephanie Tanner on the iconic sitcom "Full House" and its sequel "Fuller House". In 2009 she penned her memoir, "unSweetined", which chronicles her journey through addiction and into recovery. With her frank and open approach, Jodie has emerged as a compelling speaker and advocate who now seeks to use her platform and experiences to educate others and reduce the stigma associated with addiction and recovery. @jodiesweetin   The Elks is a 150-year-old inclusive organization with nearly one million members across 2,000 lodges. Their Drug and Alcohol Prevention (DAP) program is the largest volunteer-based kids' drug prevention initiative in the U.S. The Elks have donated over $3.6 billion to various causes, including building the first VA hospital for veterans.   The DEA, founded in 1973, enforces controlled substances laws across the U.S. and internationally. As the world's largest antidrug organization, the DEA has 241 domestic offices and 93 international divisions in 69 countries, playing a crucial role in combating drug-related crimes.   Resources/Links SAMHSA | Help and Treatment: https://bit.ly/3DJcvJC Get Smart About Drugs: https://bit.ly/45dm8vY Growing Up Drug Free: A Parent's Guide to Substance Use Prevention: https://bit.ly/48nxwYw One Pill Could Kill: https://bit.ly/3ELxfBa   DEA Website: https://bit.ly/44ed9K9 DEA on Instagram: https://bit.ly/3KqL7Uj DEA on Twitter: https://bit.ly/44VvEUt DEA on Facebook: https://bit.ly/440b6ZY DEA YouTube Channel: https://bit.ly/3s1KQB6 Elks Kid Zone Website: https://bit.ly/3s79Zdt Elks Drug Awareness Program Website: https://bit.ly/44SunO6 Elks DAP on Twitter: https://bit.ly/45CfpvR Elks DAP on Facebook: https://bit.ly/3Qw8RKL Elks DAP on YouTube: https://bit.ly/444vMQq   Jodie Sweetin's Links Jodie's Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/jodiesweetin/ Jodie's TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@jodiesweetin?lang=en   Amy McCarthy's Links Amy's Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/amymccarthylicsw/ Boston Children's Hospital Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/bostonchildrens/?hl=en Boston Children's Hospital Addiction Medicine: https://www.childrenshospital.org/departments/addiction-medicine   Rick Birt's Links RIck's Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/rickbirt/ Rick's TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@rickbirt Rick's Twitter: https://twitter.com/_RickBirt   Links Mentioned NIH (National Institutes of Health) on Teen Substance Abuse: https://www.drugabuse.gov/drug-topics/teens SADD (Students Against Destructive Decisions): https://www.sadd.org/ MADD (Mothers Against Drunk Driving) Teen Resources: https://madd.org/ National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) - Teen Driving: https://www.nhtsa.gov/road-safety/teen-driving NHTSA's "If You Feel Different, You Drive Different" Campaign: https://www.google.com/url?q=https://www.trafficsafetymarketing.gov/get-materials/drug-impaired-driving&sa=D&source=docs&ust=1695230966438374&usg=AOvVaw2S7sUUvGlD7Do6qU9CC7Qf Sample Parent-Teen Driving Agreement from CDC: https://www.cdc.gov/parentsarethekey/agreement/index.html

The first question in the Westminster Shorter Catechism is this: “What is the chief end of man?” I have found that the answer informs all that we are and everything we do in our lives. The answer is this: “To glorify God and enjoy Him forever.” Everything we do in life is an act of worship, and everything we do in life should be done to glorify God. This includes how we drive. This should cause us to think about the speed we drive, how we react to and interact with other drivers, and how we respond to traffic jams and slowdowns when we are in a hurry. Parents, as the one's who train our kids to drive, it's about more than how to operate an automobile. New findings from the 2023 Drowsy Driving Survey from the National Sleep Foundation found that one in six teens report driving drowsy during their first two years behind the wheel, and most believe that drowsy driving is not as dangerous while driving drunk or distracted. Parents, this is an aspect of driver training we mustn't avoid.

Teen Driver Faces Charges in Fatal Accident Involving Pope High Student Local Marietta Resident Miraculously Survives Headshot During Motel 6 Robbery Attempt Pebblebrook High School Teens Arrested for Possession of Firearms on Campus   All of this and more is coming up on the Marietta Daily Journal Podcast, and if you are looking for community news, we encourage you to listen and subscribe!    BREAK: CU OF GA   STORY 1: 18-Year-Old Driver Charged in Crash That Killed Pope High Student An 18-year-old driver, Oliver Luis Roman, from Powder Springs, was arrested following a fatal car crash on Jan. 9 in Woodstock. The crash resulted in the deaths of two teens, Gabriel Escandon, 17, and Esteban Cortez-Rendon, 18. The Cherokee Sheriff's Office reported that the Mazda 6, carrying five occupants, left the roadway and hit a tree. Roman and two other teens were injured. Speed was identified as a contributing factor. Roman, a student at Hillgrove High School, faces charges including vehicular homicide, serious injury by vehicle, reckless driving, and license violation. He is currently in custody without bond at the Cherokee County jail. STORY 2: Marietta Man Survives Gunshot to Head in Attempted Robbery at Motel 6 A Marietta man, Garrett Osteen, was shot in the head during an attempted robbery while dropping off a friend at a Motel 6 on Delk Road on Jan. 14. Five armed individuals, linked to a recent carjacking at Kennesaw State University, demanded money from Osteen and his friend Willie Ruffin. Osteen attempted to drive away but was fired upon, sustaining a head injury. Remarkably, Osteen recovered quickly and provided witness testimony the following day. Four suspects are in custody, with one juvenile outstanding. The arrests, involving multiple law enforcement agencies, are part of a larger crackdown on a series of carjackings and robberies. Collaboration between agencies and advanced technology have facilitated swift communication and coordination in combating crime. STORY 3: Teens Charged With Bringing Guns to Pebblebrook High School Two Mableton teenagers, Malik Ta'Veon Watkins, 18, and Heaven Marrow, 17, were arrested for bringing handguns, one of which was stolen, to Pebblebrook High School on Jan. 31. Watkins allegedly concealed a loaded Glock 44 handgun in Marrow's backpack to evade detection by staff. Both face charges including felony carrying weapons within a school safety zone and felony theft by receiving firearm. Marrow was arrested on-site by Cobb Schools Police, while Watkins was apprehended by Cobb County Police later. The school district emphasized adherence to policy and law, highlighting investments in safety measures like Cobb Shield, comprising trained police officers and crisis response systems to protect students and staff.   We have opportunities for sponsors to get great engagement on these shows.

STORY 4: Attorneys Accuse DA of Improper Handling of Police Shooting Case Attorneys representing the family of Devonte Brown, shot and killed by a Cobb police officer in 2021, allege that the Cobb District Attorney's office failed to present a complete case to the grand jury, which could have indicted the officer, Ian McConnell. Brown was killed after a car chase where he drove recklessly in a stolen vehicle. The DA's office disputes the claims, stating that investigations must be completed before presenting to the grand jury. Body camera footage showed McConnell firing 12 shots as Brown reversed his vehicle into police cars. Despite the grand jury's decision not to charge McConnell, attorneys argue for a special prosecutor and a fair presentation of evidence. The appointment of a special prosecutor would typically be overseen by the Prosecuting Attorney's Council of the state. STORY 5: School Safety Meeting Scheduled in Wake of McEachern High Shooting Cobb school board member Leroy Tre' Hutchins has organized a school safety town hall in response to the recent shooting at McEachern High School. Scheduled for Thursday night, the event aims to provide a platform for the community to express concerns and generate actionable solutions for Superintendent Chris Ragsdale and the school board. Notable attendees include Cobb County Commissioner Monique Sheffield and state Rep. David Wilkerson. Hutchins hopes to address ongoing school safety efforts, particularly regarding the recent incidents involving firearms on campus. The town hall, open to all Cobb County residents, will be held at the Vaughn Cultural Arts Center from 6:30 to 8:30 p.m. We'll be back in a moment.   Break: DRAKE STORY 6: 'A Bridge Builder': David Hankerson Remembered Cobb County Manager Jackie McMorris honored David Hankerson, the late county manager, at his funeral, recalling him as a respected figure known affectionately as "Mr. H." Hankerson, who passed away on Jan. 25 at 77, was remembered as a pioneering African American leader and the longest-serving county manager in Georgia history. Notable attendees included county officials and community leaders, all paying tribute to Hankerson's impactful legacy. Speakers highlighted Hankerson's leadership, compassion, and commitment to bridging divides within Cobb County. Family members shared personal anecdotes, describing Hankerson as a "savior in a suit" and a resilient figure who tackled challenges with unwavering strength. The funeral service, held at Turner Chapel AME Church, included military honors for Hankerson, a veteran of the U.S. Army. STORY 7: Boggs: Georgia court system still suffering staff shortages Georgia Chief Justice Michael Boggs addressed the decline in backlogs of court cases following the pandemic but highlighted ongoing shortages of prosecutors, public defenders, and other court staff. He noted that federal funding from the American Rescue Plan Act has helped alleviate some staffing issues and upgrade technology in judicial circuits. However, Boggs emphasized the need for legislative support, including passing House Bill 947 to reform judge payment systems and proposed legislation to keep judges' personal information confidential due to increasing threats. Additionally, he mentioned revisions allowing spouses of active-duty service members to obtain provisional law licenses, aimed at increasing legal availability in rural areas.

The first question in the Westminster Shorter Catechism is this: “What is the chief end of man?” I have found that the answer informs all that we are and everything we do in our lives. The answer is this: “To glorify God and enjoy Him forever.” Everything we do in life is an act of worship, and everything we do in life should be done to glorify God. This includes how we drive. This should cause us to think about the speed we drive, how we react to and interact with other drivers, and how we respond to traffic jams and slowdowns when we are in a hurry. Parents, as the one's who train our kids to drive, it's about more than how to operate an automobile. New findings from the 2023 Drowsy Driving Survey from the National Sleep Foundation found that one in six teens report driving drowsy during their first two years behind the wheel, and most believe that drowsy driving is not as dangerous while driving drunk or distracted. Parents, this is an aspect of driver training we mustn't avoid.
