Mo Brooks says he is the most conservative of the candidates running for Alabama's U.S. Senate seat up for election this year. If voters want a conservative, he says he is the only choice. He said neither Mike Durant nor Katie Britt, who are ahead of him in the polls, are conservative and in fact have favored more taxes. Congressman Brooks of Huntsville, who represents the Fifth Congressional District stretching across the Tennessee River Valley of north Alabama, visited in Clarke County April 21 and attended a Republican political rally in Monroeville that evening. Brooks visited in Jackson and made...Article Link

Every week when I create this blog I try to focus on one thing about my podcast guest that really struck a chord with me. When this week’s guest switched from wetsuit to skins, she was so convinced there was no going back she gave her wetsuit away! As a confirmed skin swimmer, I love that. But that’s not what I want to focus on this week. Instead I want to focus on being a swim activist. Because when Liz found that one of her favourite swim events had stopped running, she took over the role of Race Director to enable it to continue. This was a voluntary unpaid role, that involved intense project management, and spanned months of time. The event was the Fat Salmon swim. This made me think of all the events we do, big and small, that rely on volunteers to be able to happen at all. Last week I helped someone I know out by volunteering to be a marshal on a local duathlon. It wasn’t a tough role, but it was an early start, it took hours, and essentially it was quite boring. But without me, and another 20 people like me, the event could not have taken place. I was a bit taken aback when one of the participants said “thanks marshal” as they ran past. It was utterly unexpected, but once all the runners had passed me, and about 20% had thanked me, it got me thinking. It was nice to be thanked. For my contribution to be acknowledged, not just by the race organisers, but by the people who ultimately were benefitting from me being there. Thinking about what Liz did, to take on the organisation of a big event with a history and a legacy, and to do this for 9 years, is something remarkable, I think. How many of us would be prepared to do that to keep an event we love going? I love that she gained celebrity from it. Well deserved too. But for all the participants who knew her and appreciated her in the role, there must have been many more who had no idea who was the driving force behind the Fat Salmon. From a swimming point of view, I’m in awe of Liz’s marathon swimming ability. From a citizenship perspective I take my hat off to her. The contribution she made to the experience of all the swimmers who took part over those 9 years must be vast. Things we talked about Fat Salmon race, Mercer Island Lake Washington, Puget Sound, Little Red Lighthouse swim Hudson river, Portland Bridge swim, Swim Trek, Strait of Gibraltar swim, Killary Fjord, Tennessee River Valley swim, Ice Swimming Championships

With the country was still hobbled by the Depression, New York Governor Franklin Delano Roosevelt promised a “New Deal” for the American people. That vow handed Roosevelt a contested Democratic nomination and helped him crush Hoover in the general election. Roosevelt began his presidency with a flurry of policy proposals and legislative efforts focused around three priorities: relief, recovery, and reform. These new efforts saw millions of young men put back to work preserving natural areas as part of the Civilian Conservation Corps and undertaking a massive rural electrification project in the Tennessee River Valley. And the country’s first female cabinet member led the creation of Social Security, one of the crowning achievements of Roosevelt’s administration.Meanwhile, a reckoning was in order for Wall Street. Years after the stock market crash, a raucous senate investigation would unveil egregious abuses by financiers.Support us by supporting our sponsors!

Colter and Peter were left to their own devices, because Hywel refuses to return to us. Maybe we hurt his feelings with the Independence Day episode?

The Shoals is a community in Northwest Alabama made up of four towns: Muscle Shoals, Florence, Sheffield, and Tuscumbia. Tucked in the foothills of the Tennessee River Valley, the Shoals is an hour from any interstate, and at least a two-hour drive from the nearest big cities—Nashville to the north and Birmingham to the south.   The Shoals is one of the most documented places in the world of music. The Rolling Stones, Wilson Pickett, the Allman Brothers, Bobbie Gentry, even the Osmond Brothers -- all made pilgrimages to record at legendary FAME Studios in Muscle Shoals, with locals like Percy Sledge and the Swampers, FAME's in-house rhythm section. But music is only part of the cultural story here. There's a rich food culture, too. On this Gravy Road trip, we take a look at two sides of that story, one a local icon and the other, a newer kid in town.
