Missouri Governor Mike Kehoe is hopeful about a federal disaster declaration following Friday evening's deadly tornado outbreak that killed at least 12 people. Governor Kehoe says the destruction from the tornado outbreak is growing. Governor Kehoe says the tornadoes destroyed 368 houses and caused major damage to another 366 homes. Governor Kehoe also says that about 8,000 Missourians remain without power. That's down from 47,000 on Monday. Crews from Ameren Missouri and numerous other utilities have been working around-the-clock to try to restore power. U.S. Rep. Bob Onder (R), who represents Columbia, Jefferson City, Fulton and Kingdom City on Capitol Hill, joined us live on 939 the Eagle's "Wake Up Missouri." Congressman Onder tells listeners that he's confident that President Trump will issue a federal disaster declaration, adding that he, U.S. Rep.

Congressman Onder will be in Columbia later this morning to tour MU Health Care's Thompson Center for Autism & Neurodevelopment. Congressman Onder praises the work the Thompson Center is doing. He also discussed other issues on Capitol Hill, and tells listeners that Democrats are in disarray and are on the wrong side of issues like transgender bills and the issue of women's sports:

We believe all neighborhoods deserve to be covered in a meaningful way.We amplify positive stories, cover development and local school council meetings and serve as watchdogs in neighborhoods often ostracized by traditional news media.Ground-level coverageOur neighborhood-based reporters don't parachute in once to cover a story. They are in the neighborhoods they cover every day building relationships over time with neighbors. We believe this ground-level approach not only builds community but leads to a more accurate portrayal of a neighborhood.Stories that matter to you — every daySince our launch five years ago, we've published more than 25,000 stories from the neighborhoods, covered hundreds of community meetings and send daily and neighborhood newsletters to more than 130,000 Chicagoans. We've built this loyalty by proving to folks we are not only covering their neighborhoods, we are a part of them. Some of us have internalized the national media's narrative of a broken Chicago. We aim to change that by celebrating our neighborhoods and chronicling the resilience of the people who fight every day to make Chicago a better place for all.

We knew we had to have special guest, Dr. Camille Kolu, on the show when we heard her amazing talk about buffers at last year's Thompson Center conference. This week, our wish comes true as we discuss how buffers can contribute to our focus on improving trauma-informed practices. But, what exactly is a buffer and how does it differ from other buzzwords circling trauma-informed treatments? And is there such a thing as an evergreen TIC playbook that clinicians should be using for every client ? Spoiler: That treatment you assume must be universally trauma-informed probably isn't! This episode is available for 1.0 LEARNING CEU. Articles discussed this episode: Kolu, T.C. (2023).

What's Old is New Again... Luke and Larry started shooting muzzleloaders back in the past century, fueled somewhat by the "Jeremiah Johnson" movie. Larry started with kits for .50 Hawkens from both CVA and Thompson/Center. Luke followed suit a short time later.

Around this campfire Luke and Larry talk about the changes they've seen from shooting patched balls and conical in slow-twist barrels to faster twist barrel shooting sabots, as well as going from blackpowder to modern day blackpowder substitutes and along the way tell an interesting anecdote or two.

It's been a while since we've recorded audio from a poster session. But, by golly, Rob decided to bust out his portable recorder and make nice with the students at the Thompson Center for Autism 2023 Conference. We love getting to hear about research in its early days from special education to autism treatment to neuroscience. We had so much fun, we didn't even get to use all of our complimentary drink tickets! Plus, a familiar student voice from the past makes a return visit to the show. Thanks to all of the amazing student presenters for taking time to so eloquently share their work and to the Thompson Center for having us back to their conference.
We're starting off the month having returned from a great trip to the Thompson Center for Autism 2023 Conference. Hurricane Lee even gave us another day to spend in Missouri to ponder all the exciting episodes coming your way. First, we revisit strategies for improving your parent training methods.

Finally, a bonus featuring some great posters from the conference, including a returning presenter. We avoided gushing about how awesome City Museum is but let's just say it's one more reason to join us out in St. Louis next September!

Bonus Episode 31 - Quality of Life (LIVE @ Thompson Center for Autism Conference 2022) Presentation Slides
Summer just keeps heating up and we've got plenty of fireworks bursting out of your ol' podcatcher. We're celebrating a month full of Wednesdays with a month full of episodes featuring special guests like Dr. Holly Gover and Dr. Amy Odum to dig deep into the world of feeding selectivity treatment and delay discounting. Then we gather round the microphones to look at whether DRA without extinction is a pipe dream or a beautiful, non-coercive reality before heading into the wayback machine with our Fall 2022 talk from the Thompson Center for Autism Conference about quality of life. Then, for you patrons out there, we'll be hitting the books (club) to discuss B.F. Skinner's only novel, "Walden Two" which, we swear, is actually a ton of fun to read...if you're the kind of person who willingly does a podcast about behavior analysis at least. And, also only for patrons, vote on next month's live episode topic with another loser bracket of some of our (but not your!) favorite new topics. UPDATE: Our Bonus Episode of the Thompson Center talk will actually now be coming out NEXT month. Sorry for the last-minute change.

Mayor Lori Lightfoot wants a dome on Soldier Field, Google is buying the Thompson Center and Illinois remains a monkeypox hotspot. Reset dives deeper into those stories and more on the Weekly News Recap with WTTW's Paris Schutz, AXIOS Chicago reporter Justin Kaufmann and Chicago Tribune's Rick Pearson.
Our panel discusses a fight for chairmanship of the Democratic Party of Illinois, Google's plans for the Thompson Center and efforts to bring a major political convention to the state.
On Wednesday, officials announced Google will be moving into the Thompson Center in The Loop. The state closed on its sale of the famed building to JRTC Holdings, LLC for $105 million, and Google will move in. The company will “entirely redevelop” the building into an office suite for Google employees. The Thompson Center, designed by the late architect Helmut Jahn and opened in 1985, has long been a source of controversy. Some praise the post-modern building while others deride its retro colors and its spaceship-like facade among neo-classical architecture. All agree that it needed major renovations to fix its inefficient heating and cooling system and years of disrepair. But Jahn's designs were integral in ushering a new era of design known as post-modernism. Jacoby Cochran speaks to Lee Bey, photographer, Chicago Sun-Times architecture critic, and author of “Southern Exposure: The Overlooked Architecture of Chicago's South Side,” about the Thompson Center's legacy. This interview was originally published May 10, 2021, after the sudden death of Helmut Jahn.

Today we're talking with Barry Brakebill, CVA's latest team member and dedicated competitive muzzleloading enthusiast. Barry has decades of experience with competition and muzzleloading, having previously worked with Thompson/Center and Knight Rifles, Barry is bringing his skills to team CVA in the 2022 season. I'd like to thank our sponsors for their support: ThorBullets - Visit ThorBullets.com to learn more. Muzzleloader Magazine - Visit MuzzleloaderMagazine.com to learn more I ask Barry about the competition, how he dealt with Friendship Indiana's infamous wind, and what it's like bringing a non-custom rifle to a series of matches typically dominated by $5000+ custom guns. Even if you aren't into modern muzzleloaders, Barry discusses some of his thoughts and practices to get the most out of any muzzleloader and be as accurate as possible. This episode isn't sponsored, I've always been a fan of the competition end of muzzleloading as shooters and builders try to push the limits of loading from the muzzle. I've known Barry for a few years now after watching him shoot in competitions at the Walter Cline Range in Friendship, Indiana. Barry is a passionate advocate for the sport and I'm excited to see a company like CVA recognize that in giving Barry support and a platform.
