Podcasts about Traffic

Damian (Demon) Rowley spent 35 years riding motorcycles professionally in London—first as a courier, then as one of Virgin's elite “limo bike” riders, trusted to ferry celebrities and executives through the city's relentless traffic. With over half a million miles behind him, Damian shares the toll of crashes, injuries, and burnout, as well as the moment he realized he needed a change. At 50, he walked away from security, ended a long relationship, and set out solo on a KTM 690 to ride the world. His story isn't just about motorcycles—it's about reinvention, confronting fear, and discovering personal growth when the safety nets are gone.

//The Wire//2300Z August 27, 2025////ROUTINE////BLUF: TWO MASS SHOOTINGS STRIKE MINNEAPOLIS. CONCERNS WITHIN TRUCKING COMMUNITY GROW AS FOCUS ON TRAFFIC INCIDENTS INCREASES.// -----BEGIN TEARLINE------HomeFront-Arkansas: A truck driver was arrested after driving the wrong way across the Memphis-Arkansas Bridge yesterday, causing a large traffic disruption. Traffic was halted for some time as the driver was detained and his semi-truck removed from the roadway.Analyst Comment: This case is interesting as this was very likely an intentional act. The driver, who was driving for Raj Transport, had to be forcibly removed from the truck's cab at gunpoint by police.  There is also a bit of confusion regarding this case, as multiple individuals have been arrested under similar circumstances, with nearly the same name, over the past few weeks. Two weeks ago, another Indian driver was arrested in the same area. The driver's booking details revealed his name to be Harvinder Singh, not to be confused with the Harjinder Singh who caused the deaths of three people in Florida two weeks ago. In this case, the Arkansas Singh was highly intoxicated at the time of his arrest, with a BAC of 0.15%. So far, the wrong-way driver from yesterday has not been identified.As a brief summary, the following is a description of recent events which may be confusing due to the similarity of the names of those involved, and the circumstances of each incident:Harjinder Singh: Arrested on August 18th in California after causing the deaths of three on the Florida Turnpike.Harneet Singh: Passenger in Harjinder Singh's truck (and also his brother). Arrested on August 21st by ICE for being in the US illegally.Navjeet Singh: Arrested in Canada on August 22nd, after remaining a fugitive almost 9 months after causing a fatal crash in Manitoba.Harvinder Singh: Arrested on August 14th on I-40 near West Memphis for drunk driving.Unknown Raj Transport Driver: Arrested on August 26th after driving the wrong way on the Interstate 55 Bridge near West Memphis.Minnesota: Two mass shootings have been reported in Minneapolis over the past 24 hours. Yesterday a drive-by shooting was reported in the vicinity of Cristo Rey Jesuit High School on 4th Avenue. 1x person was killed and 6x others wounded during the attack. The suspect has not been identified and remains at large.This morning, a separate mass shooting was reported at the Annunciation Church on W 54th Street. One gunman targeted the Church during the all-school morning Mass for the Catholic School co-located with the Church. Local authorities report a total of 2x children killed, and 17x others wounded during the engagement. The suspect has been identified as Robin Westman (formerly Robert Westman), who was reported deceased at the scene.-----END TEARLINE-----Analyst Comments: At the moment, all evidence points to this Church shooting not being a random act, but a deliberate and targeted act of terrorism. A manifesto created by the murderer was posted online shortly before the attack, which (along with other content) confirms the shooter was a mentally ill transgender man who attacked his old Church.It is usually best to wait a few days for information to settle down after a major shooting. However in this case it is important to be aware that while the crime scene was still active, gun control activists were observed demonstrating at the scene, harassing parents who were trying to pick up their children from the school after the shooting. Horrific murder scenes are already a nightmare to manage...staging areas have to be established for reuniting families, media has to be kept from contaminating the crime scene, and further security concerns must be considered as well (just in case of secondary attacks). Any time a mass shooting like this occurs, it takes great skill to (on

Traffic came to a halt, but I had no idea why. There were few cars on the road, and I could see no obvious reason to be stopped. And then, suddenly—to my great surprise and delight—thousands of sheep emerged and crossed the freeway. As a newcomer to Idaho, I wasn’t yet familiar with the annual migration of the sheep into the Boise foothills each spring. Local ranchers escort their flocks into the foothills where they graze on the native grasses over the summer. Because I’d only lived in urban and suburban areas throughout my life, the sight was something of a spectacle to me. Yet sheep were a regular part of living in the days of Ezekiel (and much of the Bible’s recorded history). The prophet drew on something familiar to the people—sheep and shepherding—to convey God’s message to them (i.e. of comfort and hope). Ezekiel offered words of comfort and hope to the Israelites, telling them that despite the years of hardship in Babylon—the consequence of their recurrent rebellion against God—He’d one day restore them to “their own land” (Ezekiel 34:13). God would then, like a shepherd, “tend them in a good pasture,” and they would “lie down in good grazing land” (v. 14). God shows similar care for His people. We can trust Him, our Shepherd, to lead us forward through life—though we may feel “scattered” like sheep in the midst of difficulties—toward good pastures (vv. 12–14).

The boys are back after a week away, and Mario can't stop smiling—because he finally got to see Linkin Park live for the first time. Middle-school Mario (with his Nike SB shoes and cloudy mind) would've been screaming along, and present-day Mario still is.But it's not all concerts and nostalgia: Bryan and his mechanic knowledge break down a viral car crash involving a Ford Mustang Mach-E that's anything but your average “oops, one-car” mishap. Spoiler: this EV made headlines for more than just a dented bumper.Meanwhile, Mario's computer decides it's had enough of podcasting and literally mutes him mid-show, leaving Bryan waving SOS flags across the virtual studio. They also take a wholesome detour to shout out a local first-time author on her book release, and then get nerdy over McLaren Racing's wild move—opening bids for regular humans (yes, us included) to buy a race car that hasn't even been built yet.It's chaos, it's fun, and it's everything you missed while they were gone.#aliens #podcast #detroit

Shoot us a Text.Episode #1127: We're diving into major tariff relief for EU carmakers, Sonic Automotive's EchoPark outpacing expectations, and how generative AI is rewriting the rules for online retail traffic. Show Notes with links:The automotive industry is watching closely as the U.S. and EU hammer out a framework deal that could bring massive tariff relief for European automaker. The fine print could mean big savings and new market access.The EU and U.S. announced a new trade framework aiming to reduce U.S. auto tariffs from 27.5% to 15%.Relief would be retroactive to August 1 if the EU introduces enabling legislation this month.In exchange, the EU pledged to cut tariffs on U.S. industrial goods and increase access for American agricultural products.The deal may expand to include mutual recognition of auto safety standards and influence future U.S. agreements with Japan and South Korea.EU Trade Commissioner Maros Sefcovic emphasized urgency: “It is the European Commission's firm intention to make proposals by the end of this month.”Sonic Automotive just dropped its Q2 2025 earnings, and while a hefty impairment charge dented the bottom line, EchoPark's performance made sure the story stayed bullish.Total revenue reached a record $3.7B, up 6% YoY.Despite a $172.4M impairment charge, adjusted EPS surged 49% to $2.19, beating expectations.EchoPark led the charge with $62.1M in gross profit (+22%) and a 679% increase in adjusted segment income.Segment income rose from $3.9M to $11.7M — a 200% leap.“EchoPark is just on fire,” said Sonic President Jeff Dyke.Adobe reports a massive 4,700% YoY increase in U.S. retail site traffic driven by generative AI platforms like ChatGPT and Gemini — a clear signal that AI is transforming the online shopping journey.Traffic from gen-AI sources has grown monthly since the 2024 holiday season.90% of users trust gen-AI recommendations; bounce rates are down 27%.Visits from AI referrals are 10% more engaged, with 32% longer durations.The conversion gap between AI and non-AI traffic has shrunk from 49% in January to 23% in July.“It's allowing a very optimized, urgent, efficient journey,” said Adobe's Vivek Pandya.0:00 Intro with Paul J Daly and Kyle Mountsier1:35 Next week, Paul and Erroll Bomar III will be at NAMAD next week2:38 EU-US Finalizing New Trade Deal4:35 EchoPark Boosts Sonic's Q2 Earnings6:52 4700% Increase In Retail Traffic From GenAI SitesJoin Paul J Daly and Kyle Mountsier every morning for the Automotive State of the Union podcast as they connect the dots across car dealerships, retail trends, emerging tech like AI, and cultural shifts—bringing clarity, speed, and people-first insight to automotive leaders navigating a rapidly changing industry.Get the Daily Push Back email at https://www.asotu.com/ JOIN the conversation on LinkedIn at: https://www.linkedin.com/company/asotu/

Traffic is tanking. Search is splintering. And what used to count as a “PR win” may no longer be strategic. In a landscape where AI overall and large language models specifically are reshaping discovery, attention is no longer just a side effect of good content—it's the point. But how do you earn it when the rules keep shifting?In this week's episode, Anne Green and Steve Halsey kick things off with a fast-moving conversation about what's driving urgency and big opportunity around earned media today, from the rise of generative engine optimization (GEO) to AI's growing appetite for structured, high-authority content that gives third-party credibility renewed weight. Drawing on recent insights from a private gathering of high-level media publishers, advertising and brand leaders, they reflect on what it now takes to stay visible in a “post-traffic” world.Then, Anne is joined by Dan Nestle, communications strategist, podcaster, and advocate of the “Earned Attention” framework, for a conversation about what really builds influence today. With experience across both corporate and agency roles, Dan challenges communicators and PR pros to revisit long-held assumptions about success in a fragmented, AI-shaped landscape.Together, they explore what happens when teams prioritize prestige placements over channels that actually impact audience behavior, and how that disconnect can undermine relevance, visibility, and trust. They examine how trade and niche media are regaining strategic value, what today's audiences actually pay attention to, and why content built for trust and clarity is more likely to be seen by people and platforms alike.Join us as we explore:- Why audience behavior is replacing top-tier coverage as the true measure of success- What GEO (generative engine optimization) means for earned media strategy- How AI is reshaping discoverability and visibility, sometimes quietly, sometimes radically- The enduring value of trade and niche media in an authority-driven ecosystem- What comms leaders can do to earn attention, build trust, and stay strategically visible

The Deaths of Police Shaped Him: His Story of Violence in America. His career in law enforcement wasn't just about chasing criminals, it was about living on the edge of two worlds. He spent decades kicking in doors, infiltrating drug rings, and selling weapons to cartel figures under the guise of a hardened criminal. “I didn't just study crime,” Paul Milone says. “I lived in it, walked in it, and came out the other side.” The Law Enforcement Talk Radio Show and Podcast promoted across their Facebook , Instagram , LinkedIn , Medium and other social media platforms. Paul Milone, retired Omaha Police Department is our guest on the Law Enforcement Talk Radio Show and Podcast, available for free on their website, on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, and most podcast platforms. From the gang unit to narcotics, and later sixteen years on one of the busiest SWAT teams in the Midwest, Milone became known as Ram One, the man tasked with breaching doors in high-stakes operations. He estimates he has broken down more than a thousand doors over the span of his career. “The adrenaline, the danger, it all became part of me,” he reflects. Look for supporting stories about this and much more from Law Enforcement Talk Radio Show and Podcast in platforms like Medium , Blogspot and Linkedin . But his career wasn't only shaped by the criminals he pursued. It was the deaths of fellow officers and friends that changed him most deeply, both as a cop and as a human being. The Deaths of Police Shaped Him: His Story of Violence in America. Milone recalls the loss of Officer Gregory Hamill, who contracted the H1N1 flu virus during a narcotics search in January 2014. Hamill's health deteriorated rapidly, and he died in February 2015 from complications. “Greg was one of us,” Milone shares. “We go into these homes thinking about the guns, the violence, the suspects. But sometimes, it's something you can't see that ends up taking your brother.” Available for free on their website and streaming on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, and other podcast platforms. He also carries the memory of Sergeant Jason “Tye” Pratt, who was shot in the head while helping search for a fleeing suspect in Omaha. Pratt died after a week in a coma. “Tye's death hit me hard,” Milone admits. “You train, you prepare, you do everything right, and still—violence in America claims another officer. These are the moments that never leave you.” Violence in America and the Numbers Behind It Milone's personal losses echo a troubling national trend. According to the National Law Enforcement Officers Memorial Fund's 2024 Fatalities Report, officer deaths in the line of duty rose by 25% from the previous year. In 2024 alone, 147 officers across the United States died while serving. Gunfire was the leading cause, claiming 52 officers' lives. Traffic-related deaths also spiked 48% from the previous year, with a particularly alarming rise in officers being struck by vehicles. The data paints a stark picture: law enforcement professionals are facing escalating dangers in every facet of their work. The Deaths of Police Shaped Him: His Story of Violence in America. The Law Enforcement Talk Radio Show and Podcast episode is available for free on their website , Apple Podcasts , Spotify and most major podcast platforms. “These numbers aren't just statistics,” Milone explains. “They're friends, they're fathers, mothers, sons, and daughters. For me, they're Greg. They're Tye. They're the guys you rode with yesterday who aren't coming back tomorrow.” From Omaha to the National Conversation The Omaha Police Department (OPD), Nebraska's largest law enforcement agency, has seen its share of tragedy and sacrifice. With more than 900 sworn officers protecting nearly half a million residents, Omaha represents the frontline reality of American policing. Milone, who spent much of his career with OPD, believes these stories must be told beyond the police world. “If the public doesn't understand the risks we face, then the deaths of these officers get buried in the news cycle,” he says. “We can't let that happen.”  The full podcast episode is streaming now on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, and across Facebook, Instagram, and LinkedIn. A Story Told Through Social Media and Podcasts Today, Milone shares his experiences through social media platforms like The Law Enforcement Talk Radio Show and Podcast's Facebook, Instagram, and LinkedIn, connecting with audiences who may never have walked in a cop's boots. His story has also been featured across news outlets, podcasts on Apple and Spotify, and he often speaks about his journey in interviews. The Deaths of Police Shaped Him: His Story of Violence in America. He has even turned his reflections into a book, detailing the gritty reality of undercover work and the personal toll of losing colleagues to violence. “The book is not just about me,” Milone emphasizes. “It's about the men and women who didn't get to write theirs.” Why These Stories Matter Milone's life is a raw testimony to the cost of public safety in America. From hostage rescues and riots to the quieter, more haunting losses of fellow officers, his journey speaks to the reality behind the badge. “The public often sees the uniform, the badge, the authority,” Milone says. “What they don't see are the funerals. What they don't see are the empty seats at family dinners. What they don't see is how the deaths of police shape those of us who survive.” The Deaths of Police Shaped Him: His Story of Violence in America. The Law Enforcement Talk Radio Show and Podcast promoted across their Facebook , Instagram , LinkedIn , Medium and other social media platforms. Carrying the Legacy Forward For Milone, sharing his story isn't about reliving the past, it's about ensuring those who paid the ultimate price are remembered. By speaking through social media, podcasts, and his book, he hopes to keep their names alive in a world where tragedy often gets overshadowed by the next headline. “I want people to know Greg Hamill. I want them to know Tye Pratt. Because their stories are America's story,” he says. “The violence in America isn't just something you read about. It's something we lived, and some of us didn't survive. That's the truth.” The Deaths of Police Shaped Him: His Story of Violence in America.

Ross Simmonds breaks down how AI overviews and LLMs are changing search—and what small businesses can do to keep winning. We dig into why brand and owned channels matter more than ever, how to diversify beyond Google, which third-party domains LLMs love to cite, and a simple focus formula for content distribution. Key TakeawaysThe SERP is shifting to answers and transactions; fewer clicks to your site means brand + owned channels are mission-critical. Now is the time to publish unique, story-driven content that LLMs can cite later. Create assets your “future you” will be grateful for. Diversify discovery: show up where buyers research (TikTok, Pinterest, Instagram, Etsy), not just on Google. Search behavior has shifted—people use Instagram/YouTube/TikTok for ideas and how-tos; optimize for those journeys. To influence LLM answers, seed multiple authoritative domains (LinkedIn, Reddit, Medium, Quora) with your message. “Be excellent on one channel” first; syndicate elsewhere even if it's not perfect—then expand. Optimize your life too: sleep and calendars drive better marketing than nonstop grind. Listener Action ItemsPick your “home” channel and get excellent at it for 90 days; syndicate the same posts to 2 other platforms with light edits. Publish 3–5 unique, story-rich assets this month that your future self wants LLMs to cite. Seed third-party domains (LinkedIn article, Reddit thread, Medium post, Quora answer) with your core message to boost LLM citation odds. Audit discovery: can buyers find you on Pinterest/Instagram/TikTok/Etsy for your “money” searches? If not, claim and optimize profiles. Protect your energy: schedule sleep, workouts, and weekly calendar reviews before adding new marketing experiments. Connect With Ross:LinkedinGet Ross's book: Create Once, Distribute Forever Text me your questions or comments!Does SEO feel confusing, overwhelming, or just plain impossible to figure out?
