An approved variation to Clare's County Development Plan is being hailed as a win for the county. The move sees an additional 250 acres of land zoned for housing countywide, while a further 350 acres of strategic residential reserve sites have been unlocked for immediate use. Questions have been raised over whether this will make any difference given Clare's serious wastewater deficits, with 50 towns and villages still without a sewerage connection. Clare FM's Daragh Dolan has been speaking to Planning Consultant and Clonlara Independent Councillor Michael Begley on the matter, but firstly, Kilmurry Fianna Fáil Cllr Alan O'Callaghan.

What if your landlord was also your boss, mayor, bartender, and moral hall monitor? This week, Andrew Heaton talks with Brian Brushwood about the strange history of company towns—from industrial utopias to corporate feudalism—and the thin line between benevolent planning and creepy social engineering. Then they venture into Walt Disney's original vision for EPCOT: not a theme park, but a living futuristic city under a climate-controlled dome, where corporations tested new technologies on actual residents. Was Disney imagining a dazzling city of tomorrow, or accidentally inventing a family-friendly version of Brave New World?
Join the Conversation at 303-477-5600 or text to 307-200-8222. Monday - Friday from 3 pm - 6 pm MT. https://RushToReason.com HOUR 1 Unmasking COVID: Explosive Debates, Hidden Truths, and the Fight for Medical Freedom Host John Rush kicks off an electrifying hour with Dr. Kelly Victory and Steve House, diving headfirst into the hottest topics in health and freedom. From vaccine skepticism to the battle for medical transparency, the trio unpacks explosive new data and challenges the official COVID narrative. Are hidden truths finally coming to light? Tune in as they debate what the public should really believe—and reveal why some studies aren't making headlines. No topic is off-limits: vaccine safety, cancer fears, childhood health, rising autism rates, Big Pharma profits, and the evolution of vaccine policy all come under fire. Government agencies and industry incentives are put in the spotlight as the guests expose what's really shaping our healthcare decisions. Things get even more heated as the group tackles a wild bioethics controversy—are environmental activists going too far with proposals involving Lone Star ticks and alpha-gal syndrome? Plus, they break down sensational headlines about norovirus, call out fear-driven media, and urge listeners to use common sense when evaluating health scares and political spin. HOUR 2 Innovation Under Siege: Patent Wars, Gated Towns, and High-Stakes CO Headlines Host John Rush and guest Randy Landreneau of U.S. Inventor ignite Hour 2 with a high-stakes warning: America's broken patent system is putting the next generation of inventors—and the country's future—at risk. Can small innovators survive in a world where Big Tech bulldozes their patents and China races ahead? Find out what's truly at stake for American innovation. Then, the conversation heats up as John uncovers the drama behind Bow Mar's controversial plan to gate off the town. Is it genuine neighborhood safety, or a public-access powder keg ready to blow? Next, John exposes how new rules from California could slash your aftermarket tire choices and drive up costs for Colorado drivers. From catalytic converters to winter tires, he reveals how these copycat regulations threaten everyone on the road. The hour wraps up with breaking news on Denver International Airport's CEO retiring, the airport's massive economic clout, and John's inside scoop on what's next for one of the nation's busiest hubs.

Send us Fan MailWe break down how the Knicks steal Game 1 from the Spurs and why our series prediction still leans San Antonio in six. We dig into Wembanyama's rough efficiency, Brunson's high-volume scoring, and the Game 2 adjustments that could decide whether this Finals swings fast. • Knicks stealing home court by starting hot and staying aggressive • Spurs losing Game 1 through mistakes more than lack of talent • Jalen Brunson's 30 points on heavy volume and what it signals • Victor Wembanyama's shot selection and turnovers as the main fix • Knicks defenders earning credit without “stopping” Wemby long term • Role-player impact from Towns, Bridges, Hart, Anunoby and Robinson • Spurs needing more from De'Aaron Fox and better shooting from Vassell • Why Game 2 feels like a pressure test for a young Spurs team • Finals mindset and why a non-complacent Knicks team changes everything please make sure to like, subscribe, comment, tell anyone who's anyone about the show.

In this episode of The Right Time, Bomani Jones and Danny Parkins break down why Karl-Anthony Towns might be the real key to a New York Knicks title run. Bomani argues that KAT has been the Knicks' best player in the postseason and explains why New York looks its most dangerous when the offense runs through Towns instead of falling into heavy Jalen Brunson isolation ball. They also get into how Towns' aggressiveness has changed the way people see him, why his effort level has been the biggest difference, and what this kind of playoff run could mean for his long-term legacy if the Knicks finish the job. Later in the episode, Bomani and Danny debate Russell Wilson's Hall of Fame case, including how much his Pro Bowls matter, how his resume compares to Matthew Stafford, and whether public opinion has swung too far against him after the Denver years.

It's our pleasure to introduce you to Old Gods of Appalachia!

This is part one of our three episode introduction to Old Gods of Appalachia. This episode contains references to occult phenomena, unnatural means of reproduction, human sacrifice, ghosts, mutilation, beheading and maiming human beings, monster sounds.

Chair: Tim Burke, editor Speakers: Lee Gordon, partner, Walker Morris Paula Hirst, director, Harlow and Gilston Garden Town The UK is standing at the edge of a new urban frontier, fuelled by a government mandate to build the first "New Towns" of the 21st century. But between the political ambition and the first spade in the ground lies a high-stakes landscape of fragmented land ownership, staggering infrastructure costs, a myriad of stakeholders and the relentless pressure of long-term viability. This episode, recorded at UKREiiF, goes beyond the headlines to explore the "heavy lifting" required to develop a new community from scratch. We'll look at the strategic foundations and practical lessons relating to other new town and new settlement projects to address common challenges. This is a deep dive into both consenting and delivery aspects, including the role of public-private partnerships and where funding must align perfectly with private sector momentum to bridge the viability gap. This episode will move past the dry legalities of planning to tackle the "infrastructure-first" mandate and the strategic art of creating an eco-system long before the first resident moves in.

Munaf Manji and Dave Essler talk betting for Thursday. Munaf Manji and Uncle Diamond Dave Essler are back on the Straight Outta Vegas AM feed for a loaded Thursday edition of Cash That Ticket, coming off a perfect 2-and-0 best bet day and ready to attack one of the biggest nights on the spring sports calendar. The guys open with a full breakdown of Game 2 of the NBA Eastern Conference Finals, where the New York Knicks host the Cleveland Cavaliers at Madison Square Garden as six-and-a-half-point home favorites with a total of 216.5. Cleveland blew a 20-plus-point fourth-quarter lead in Game 1, shot just 40% from the field, got beaten 60-38 in the paint, and watched Donovan Mitchell disappear in overtime, and Uncle Dave makes a compelling case that the sharpest angle in this game is fading the Cavs team total rather than picking a side outright. The Knicks shot a combined 31% from three in Game 1 with every perimeter player ice cold, and positive regression to the mean makes the New York team total over an equally compelling play. Uncle Dave targets Karl-Anthony Towns PRA over 35 as his player prop, pointing to Jarrett Allen's inability to contain Towns and the near-certain shooting efficiency improvement from a 6-for-14 Game 1 outing. Munaf takes Donovan Mitchell over 27.5 points at minus-114 on DraftKings, citing Mitchell's hometown pride at MSG and his overtime disappearance as the motivational fuel for a bounceback performance. Both hosts like the Knicks side for the full game and first half. On the baseball side, Uncle Dave and Munaf work through all four evening games, hitting the Braves and Marlins total with Sandy Alcántara against Spencer Strider in Miami, the Blue Jays at Yankee Stadium with Braydon Fisher as opener against a shaky Carlos Rodón, the Sacramento Athletics against José Soriano and the Angels in a high-pitch-count over environment, and Eduardo Rodríguez versus Zach Agnos in the desert with a big Arizona money line neither host wants to lay. Best bets close the show: Uncle Dave locks the Braves-Marlins over 7.5 on the strength of both teams' recent scoring history in this series and beyond, while Munaf pounds the Blue Jays team total over 3.5 at minus-120 on DraftKings against a Rodón who has walked eight batters in just eight innings this season.

This Day in Maine for Tuesday, May 19, 2026.
America is a land dotted with so-called “company towns” – population centers where a single business or industry dominates not only the local economy, but government and community ethos as well. But what happens when a town and an industry in decline part ways, leaving it to local government and leadership to take up the slack? Hoover fellow Elizabeth Mitchell Edler discusses what transpired in those portions of America (Appalachia and the Midwest) once dominated by a since-diminished coal industry and the lack of institutional confidence that followed – her interviews, polling and data research chronicled in her new book, Company Towns: Industry Power and the Historical Foundations of Public Mistrust. Recorded on May 4, 2026.

We now know that things like access to affordable housing and healthy food, good jobs that provide a livable income, education, safe environments, and other factors that make up what we call the “social determinants of health” are more powerful in promoting health of individuals and communities than health care itself. Sir Michael Marmot has been a pioneer in advancing this concept and has created what are called Marmot Cities and Towns or Marmot Places. One nurse who has worked with Marmot is Charlotte McArdle, a Global Nurse Consultant, Visiting Professor Ulster University Belfast, Vice Dean of the Faculty of Nursing and Midwifery at the Royal College of Surgeons in Ireland, and a former government chief nurse officer in the United Kingdom. On April 22, 2026, HealthCetera producer and host Diana J. Mason, PhD, RN, talked with McArdle about Marmot Places and its relevance for people in the United States. This interview first aired on HealthCetera in the Catskills on WIOX Radio on April 22, 2026. The post Marmot Places appeared first on HealthCetera.

Grand Rapids gets all the attention, but the best places to live in West Michigan might actually be just outside of it. In this video, Josh May with RE/MAX of Grand Rapids breaks down 4 hidden gem communities within 45 minutes of Grand Rapids that more people should be talking about.*VIDEO CHAPTERS*Introduction (0:00) Rockford, Michigan (1:06) Saugatuck, Michigan (2:22) Greenville, Michigan (3:21) Ada, Michigan (4:24) Big Takeaway (5:25)*Michigan's Hidden Gems: Cool Cities Beyond Grand Rapids*When people start researching a move to West Michigan, Grand Rapids is almost always the starting point. It makes sense. It is the second-largest city in Michigan and has a lot going for it. But what a lot of people discover after digging a little deeper is that some of the most desirable places to live in the entire region are the smaller communities just outside of it.In this video, we highlight four communities that consistently surprise people with how much they offer.*Rockford, Michigan* sits about 15 to 20 minutes north of Grand Rapids and has one of the most authentic small-town feels in all of West Michigan. The entire downtown is built around the Rogue River, making it walkable, connected, and genuinely enjoyable to spend time in. Local restaurants, coffee shops, boutiques, and the Riverwalk trail system make Rockford the kind of place where people actually live in their community. It also has strong schools and a good mix of home styles and price points.*Saugatuck, Michigan* is a completely different experience, and that is exactly the point. Located about 40 minutes west along the Lake Michigan shoreline, Saugatuck is defined by its coastal feel, vibrant art scene, and the kind of lifestyle that makes it feel like a permanent vacation. Oval Beach is one of the best beaches in the state, and the downtown is filled with galleries, shops, and waterfront character. For buyers who put lifestyle above everything else, Saugatuck is worth serious consideration.*Greenville, Michigan* is about 30 minutes northeast of Grand Rapids and has become a go-to for buyers who want more home for their money. Larger lots, more square footage, and lower price points make Greenville attractive to people who are feeling priced out of closer-in communities. Beyond the value story, Greenville has a growing downtown, riverfront parks along the Flat River, and a strong local community that keeps people rooted there long-term.*Ada, Michigan* has transformed significantly over the past several years into one of the most sought-after areas in West Michigan. The village has been redeveloped with intention, featuring a walkable downtown anchored by the Ada Hotel, alongside luxury homes, private wooded settings, and gathering spaces that feel high-end without being cold. Ada sits just minutes from Grand Rapids, making it the ideal option for someone who wants privacy, upscale living, and easy access to the city all at once.Whether you are drawn to Rockford's river town walkability, Saugatuck's lakefront lifestyle, Greenville's space and affordability, or Ada's luxury and community, there is a version of West Michigan built for how you want to live. You do not have to be in Grand Rapids to have an incredible life here.
Imogen Eveson from Australian Traveller speaks with Philip Clark about finding the best destinations for your next trip, and what makes one place a must-hit destination.
Backwoods horror, road trip terror, gas station nightmares, isolated towns, Ozark creatures, and middle-of-nowhere survival collide in this brutal collection of four creepy horror stories. If you love roadside dread, rural secrets, desperate escapes, strange towns, and stories where one wrong turn changes everything, this episode is built to leave dirt under your nails and headlights in your nightmares.Tonight's lineup takes you from a father-daughter road trip that veers into pure nightmare, to a security job in a town where something ancient is waiting beneath a church, to a vicious Ozark creature feature soaked in blood and panic, and finally to a gas station shift where the fluorescent lights hide something far darker than bad coffee and impatient customers. This is horror at the edge of the map—where the woods close in, the locals know more than they say, and the next stop might be the worst mistake of your life.• Strike-Out! — by Morgan MooreA spring road trip to see family turns catastrophic when a father and daughter break down at the worst possible place imaginable. Tense, nasty, and full of survival-horror momentum, this one feels like a childhood nightmare told with the pedal pinned down.• I Was Sent to a Small Town Where Strange Things Were Happening — by Michael KelsoA security specialist arrives in a remote New England town to investigate frightened workers and finds vanished people, forbidden tunnels, and something inhuman wearing a human face. This one leans hard into eerie isolation, old evil, and creeping dread.• Bite Me — by David O'HanlonA reunion weekend in the Ozarks becomes a blood-soaked creature nightmare when something impossible starts feeding in the woods. Wild, fast, and vicious, it mixes backwoods horror with monster-movie chaos in the best way.• I Hate Working at the Gas Station After Discovering Its Dark Secret — by Michael KelsoA bitter overnight clerk, a missing coworker, corporate surveillance, and a horrifying secret tied to a distribution center turn a routine gas station job into full paranoid nightmare fuel. Funny, grim, and deeply unsettling.From lonely mountain roads to church basements, flea-ridden woods, and convenience stores where the cameras always seem to be watching, this collection is all about the moment a familiar place turns wrong and keeps getting worse.
Send us Fan MailIn this episode I am joined by Shannon Odom, executive director of the McDowell County Tourism Development Authority, to unpack why this corner of Western North Carolina is gaining serious momentum, and how it's doing it in a way that feels rooted, welcoming, and real.We talk trails first, because the growth is undeniable: new mileage on the ground, rebuilt sections after Hurricane Helene, and the validation that comes with Old Fort joining the North Carolina Trail Towns Network. Shannon explains the “trails for all” approach, from easy loops for beginners to the big headline project many people haven't heard about yet: backcountry adaptive bicycling trails tied to the Wilderness Gateway Trail. From there, we zoom out into the long game, a connected network that could link Marion, Universal Park, the Thermal Belt Trail, and eventually the Fonta Flora Trail.Then we go beyond the bike to the full McDowell County travel guide experience: Old Fort's railroad and frontier history, Marion's downtown businesses and brewery scene, Little Switzerland's Parkway charm, and practical updates on Blue Ridge Parkway access. We also hit the must-see waterfalls like Linville Falls, Catawba Falls, and Tom's Creek Falls, plus culture and festivals that make a weekend feel packed, from the Orchard at Altapass to Bigfoot sightings and gold panning.Mike AndressHost, Exploration Local828-551-9065mike@explorationlocal.comPodcast WebsiteFacebookInstagram: explorationlocal

Who'd have thought a draw at an already relegated side would throw up so many talking points? Treacherous journeys, home fans-only pubs and a debatable red card. Few involved in this one, Stephen, Eleanor, Mick and Lambo. Enjoy. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.
Evan Roberts and Tiki Barber react to the Knicks delivering their most dominant performance of the season with a convincing playoff win over the Hawks. The guys explain why Jalen Brunson and Karl Anthony Towns looked unstoppable, how the team finally played with the urgency fans have been waiting for, and why this game has Knicks fans starting to dream bigger than just winning the series. The discussion also focuses on Mike Brown's adjustments, including the double big lineup with Towns and Mitchell Robinson, and why the head coach is finally earning back confidence after a shaky start to the playoffs. Evan and Tiki also push back on Charles Barkley's criticism of Knicks fans, debate the pressure surrounding championship expectations in New York, and touch on another strong night for the Yankees behind Aaron Judge and rising ace Cam.

Idaho doesn't try to be weird… which is exactly what makes it so strange.In this video, we take a long, offbeat road trip through some of the most unusual places in the state—from lava fields that look like another planet, to towns that refused to disappear, to a place that legally (or at least confidently) calls itself the Center of the Universe.You'll see:• A landscape NASA used to train astronauts• A near-forgotten “Atomic City” stuck in time• A town covered in numbers climbing up a mountainside• A giant dog you can actually sleep inside• And more places that feel just slightly… offThis isn't the Idaho you hear about. It's the Idaho that quietly exists in the background—unbothered, a little surreal, and way more interesting than it lets on.Watch until the end—you might start questioning how many of these places should actually exist.#Idaho #WeirdAmerica #RoadTrip #HiddenPlaces #TravelWeird

"The word ‘suburbia' sort of evokes a very fixed idea of a place that is identikit, that all suburbs are the same, that within the suburb everything is the same, that all people are the same, all experiences are the same," says social historian and author John Grindrod, "I think it has this kind of flattening-out facility, that word, that isn't true."Content note: this episode contains one category B swear.

Experiential tourism around sports and music has gone stratospheric. BTS just announced they're back together and going on a world tour, and flights and hotels across 34 cities sold out almost immediately.Kickstarted by Taylor and Beyoncé, music tourism could go to $9 billion globally by 2030—a 50% jump from 2023. Sports could crack a trillion dollars within a few years, especially with FIFA World Cup games this summer and the 2028 Olympics. Why now, is this a matter of right time, right tech enabling all this?And speaking of tech, GEO and AI visibility are on travel's mind in a dramatically different way compared to even 3 months ago. AI search no longer shows ten links, it recommends a handful of brands. If your travel brand isn't one of them, it effectively doesn't exist.In this era of brand survival, a new customer's first interaction with your brand is likely to be through an AI summary. If that summary is impersonal, you will be impossible to find against competitors with more emotionally resonant content. But what's hype and what's the real thing? We have guesses.
New England has some of the highest energy costs in the country. Cold winters, along with other rising expenses, have rural towns looking for ways to save money.

Towns across the U.S. are now grappling with what it means to have ICE detention centers in their backyard — even communities that overwhelmingly voted for President Donald Trump and support his deportation efforts.Last week, hundreds of protestors showed up outside a Maryland courtroom while a federal judge temporarily blocked the construction of a detention center in the state. That pause will remain in place as a lawsuit from the the state's attorney general plays out. And last month, Pennsylvania Gov. Josh Shapiro blocked ICE's access to water and sewage systems in two different counties where warehouses were bought. Local leaders argue these warehouses would overwhelm city resources.So, what are conditions like in these facilities? And what does the future hold for this new wave of detention centers?Find more of our programs online.

In this episode of the OutThere Colorado Podcast, Spencer and Seth chat about the state's top mountain bike towns, the best waterfalls to track down, Colorado's many 'staircase' hikes and whether or not a certain route is the most difficult hike in the state, Manitou Springs, and more.
The Knicks picked up a win, but the bigger story is what it revealed about their two stars. With Jalen Brunson out, Karl-Anthony Towns thrived in a more fluid offense, sparking a deeper conversation about whether New York's top players can truly complement each other. The question isn't about talent, it's about fit, and whether this roster can function at a championship level. Evan Roberts and Tiki Barber break down the disconnect between Brunson and Towns, from the “point five” ball movement philosophy to the underlying numbers that suggest both players are better apart than together. The conversation also shifts to the NFL, where Kirk Cousins' surprising decision to choose the Raiders over the Jets raises questions about team perception, relationships, and what really drives quarterback decisions in free agency.
