Podcasts about Tupelo

This week, I'm joined by the poet laureate of Tupelo, Mississippi, mister Paul Thorn. Growing up as a preacher's son, Paul wasn't allowed to listen to secular music, so when he managed to sneak a copy of Marshall Crenshaw's perfect debut album, it became a constant and sole companion for years. Paul takes us with him on his journey with the album as he grew into a young man, and why the album still resonates with him today.

This week we're bringing you a replay of a case that is one of the wildest—and most unsettling—stories we've ever covered. Back in 2005, headlines dubbed him the Body Snatcher of New York. Dr. Michael Mastromarino was a once-promising dentist who built a shady side business harvesting human tissue and bones without consent. What started as a booming “medical” enterprise unraveled into a shocking scandal that left thousands of families devastated, raised questions about the tissue donation industry, and earned Mastromarino a spot in true crime infamy.   We're re-airing this episode now because it ties in more than you'd expect with the docuseries The Kings of Tupelo, which we're covering all month long.

Every month, I sit down with my friend and collaborator, Jen Risley, editor of Main Street Journal, for a live conversation about what's working—and what's next—in local investing and impact crowdfunding. These sessions keep me humble and energized. There's simply more high-impact work happening than any one newsletter can cover, even when we publish more than once a day, and I'm grateful Jen brings her readers into this ongoing, practical conversation about building community wealth.This month's livestream circled three powerful themes:* How one statewide “buy local” champion became a policy and procurement force* Why small wind—done right—could be a missing piece in local clean-energy finance* What rural communities keep teaching us about ownership, scale, and “fair exchange” between local economiesBelow I've stitched together the ideas in the most useful order I know: start with place, organize around ownership, and finance work that has a credible path to cash flow and measurable community benefit.Scaling Local: The Kimber Lanning/Local First Arizona PlaybookIf you want a concrete picture of what “going local” looks like at scale, study Local First Arizona and its leader, Kimber Lanning. In our discussion, I highlighted the organization's growth to 65 staff and 2,500 paying members, and the way that capacity translates into actual power: influencing city procurement, training and mentoring entrepreneurs, and generally changing the rules of the game for locally owned businesses. That's not a marketing campaign—that's economic development.From an investor's standpoint, the lesson is straightforward: ecosystem capacity multiplies enterprise capacity. When cities rethink procurement, local firms land contracts. When founders get hands-on mentoring and peer accountability, they grow steadier revenue and become stronger candidates for Reg CF and community note offerings. This is the flywheel we want: policy → pipeline → performance.A second takeaway is strategic humility. Not every community can—or should—copy and paste Arizona's structure. Jen noted that the old “build a nonprofit business alliance” model was financially unsustainable in her small New Hampshire region, even though it succeeded in places like Phoenix. The right structure is local by definition. The goal is to right-size the vehicle so it can actually deliver value where you live.Action moves for builders and funders:* Map the procurement levers you can move in the next 12 months (city, county, anchor institutions).* Stand up a founder services sprint (8–12 weeks) that teaches 5–10 local firms exactly how to win those contracts.* Pre-vet 2–3 entrepreneurs from that sprint for a Reg CF raise; pair with a local “buy from” campaign timed to their working-capital needs.Small Wind, Big Idea: Cluster Effects & Localized Clean EnergyJen brought a fresh perspective from my recent conversation with Dr. Daniel Farb of Flower Turbines. The concept that grabbed both of us: smaller wind turbines can improve each other's performance when thoughtfully clustered—a “1+1>2” effect we don't see with utility-scale wind. That's a meaningful design distinction with financing implications.Why does this matter? Because distributed wind complements rooftop solar in the two places where solar is weakest: at night and on cloudy days. That can reduce storage requirements—still costly and, in many chemistries, environmentally fraught. If we can meet more load in real time with a mixed portfolio (solar + small wind), we make community microgrids both cleaner and cheaper.I also love the place-based finance angle. Flower Turbines' current posture prioritizes local projects; if momentum builds, I expect a pattern we've seen with solar developers: batching geographically defined projects and raising for the bundle—streamlining diligence while preserving neighborhood-level benefits. That's an ideal use case for impact notes and project-level Reg CF offerings with transparent revenue models (PPAs, leases, host-site savings shares).Rural Reality Check: The Tupelo Model, Ownership, and Fair ExchangeJen noted that her most-engaged post since we last met focused on rural communities going local—drawing on Michael Shuman's reminder from the Tupelo model that without local ownership, “economic development” is often just transfer pricing on a map. If a town wins by luring a company from a neighbor, the region doesn't grow; it just rearranges. Ownership, not attraction, is the engine.This is where “impact crowdfunding” shines: it converts resident savings into resident equity and debt, keeping profits and control close to the people who live with the outcomes. Jen's point lands because we still see candidates insisting the path forward is subsidizing outside firms to relocate—a habit that costs money and often steals jobs from another community rather than creating new value. There is another way.We also revisited a beautiful nuance from the days of BALLE (Business Alliance for Local Living Economies): “fair exchange between local economies.” Being pro-local isn't isolationism. It's a commitment to buy locally first, then buy from another community's local businesses when yours doesn't produce the thing you need. That ethic builds inter-local solidarity instead of a zero-sum nationalism. It's an attitude I'd love to see embedded in every regional procurement policy.What We're Building Together: Access + VIP DepthA quick update on SuperCrowd25: yes, there were a couple small glitches, but the event delivered—eighteen hours of programming, every minute available free on the Superpowers for Good site. It's embedded in a YouTube player, so you can speed it up, skip ahead, and go straight to highlights like Michael Shuman's talk or Jen's session. We're also cutting individual clips and—because the SuperCrowdLA recap was a hit—planning a SuperCrowd25 book.On the membership front, our operating philosophy is simple: publish most content free, then offer VIP depth that pays for the mission. We're averaging 8–9 posts a week, with just one reserved for paying Impact Members. Our monthly webinars are open, and the VIP After-Call—including backstage Q&A with speakers at SuperCrowd25—offers that small-group, one-on-one access many of you value. Non-members can drop in for $25 when something catches your eye. That combo keeps the tent big and the lights on.And because Main Street Journal is one of the most thoughtful voices in our space, I encouraged listeners to become paying subscribers there, too. Much of Jen's most valuable work sits behind her paywall—for good reason. If you care about strengthening your town's economic resilience, it's worth it.How These Threads Weave Together (and Why They Matter to Investors)From where I sit, the three themes of this conversation converge on the same thesis:* Local First Arizona shows how ecosystem capacity (policy + procurement + services) turns into investable, revenue-generating opportunities for founders who live where their customers live.* Flower Turbines demonstrates that design choices (clustered small wind) can change the unit economics of clean energy at the site level—exactly where community investors can understand the business model and monitor outcomes.* The Tupelo model reminds us to finance ownership, not attraction. When residents own productive assets, we create compounding returns—financially and civically.That's impact crowdfunding's sweet spot. We're not speculating on abstractions; we're backing understandable enterprises whose success visibly benefits our place. We ask founders to disclose risks and realities. We accept the discipline of regulated raises. We insist on alignment between mission, model, and metrics.Keep the Conversation GoingYou can watch every minute of SuperCrowd25's programming for free, right now, and go straight to the segments that matter most to your work. We'll keep pulling clips and assembling a book-length recap to make the content easier to use. And we'll keep the tent wide—free content for all, depth for those who want VIP access.If you value this conversation, support both communities: become a paying Impact Member here and a Main Street Journal subscriber there. That's how we keep telling the stories that move capital, change policy, and grow ownership—on Main Street, where the impact shows up.P.S. What did this month's conversation spark for you? Reply with a note about a procurement shift you're chasing, a clean-energy site you're sketching, or a rural “shared services” idea you want to test. We'll fold the best examples into upcoming posts—and, with your permission, into the SuperCrowd25 recap project we're assembling now.

Send us a textA 15-year-old Elvis Tribute Artist that many feel is Elvis reincarnated but looks like Joaquin Phoenix! He is the only singer in his family. The attraction started in second grade after his best friend dared him to dress up as Elvis for Halloween, which began the love affair for the King of Rock n Roll. Aiden also sings Johnny Cash, Josh Turner and a couple others but Elvis is his niche. He says, Elvis is a friend of his that he never got to meet and since 2nd Grade he has been singing his songs that began with “Jailhouse Rock.” Aiden spends an hour every day practicing Elvis's music. He states he has watch every single video on YouTube that Elvis has watched to perfect his mannerisms and movement and some of these moves come natural to Aiden. He has jumpsuits made specifically for him along with the replica clothes and he completely embraces this vintage look and mentions; he was born in the wrong era!Being part of a big competition in Memphis in the Big “little” King Division, he will be performing in the Graceland tent very soon, but Aiden really wants to be the Ultimate Elvis and has been to Tupelo, MS many times and performed right outside the birthplace of Elvis! What is next? VEGAS? Steve Pennington is his vocal coach for over the past year and half, and one Aiden believes in him in which the results speak for themselves. Pennington is the one to credit for posting his videos and putting the naysayers at bay that believed Aiden was lip synching by posting an A Capella video. How is he handling all the notoriety from his VIRAL videos? He tells us what long term plans are, and he has a plan B too! What does a teenager away from being Elvis? He ends with a beautiful story of the impact he has had on others.  Aiden Joiner Links:Join the Facebook Group: https://www.facebook.com/groups/386781849478323Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/aiden_joiner/?hl=enWatch Aiden's Tik Tok Videos: https://www.tiktok.com/@santasteve24 Before the Lights Links:Website: https://www.tommycanale.com/beforethelights-episodesGet Tommy a Glass of Vino: https://www.buymeacoffee.com/beforethelightsSupport the showFollow the show on Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/beforethelightspodcast/Follow the show on Face Book: https://www.facebook.com/beforethelightspodcast/Follow the show on Tik Tok: https://www.tiktok.com/@beforethelightspodcast?lang=enFollow Tommy on Face Book: https://www.facebook.com/tcanale3Rate & Review: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/before-the-lights/id1501245041Email the host: beforethelightspod@gmail.com

Leigh Occhi was 13 years old when she disappeared on August 21, 1992. According to her mother, Vickie Felton, Leigh was left alone at home while Vickie went to work that Thursday. Upon arriving at work, Vickie learned about Hurricane Andrew heading towards their hometown of Tupelo, Mississippi. Vickie attempted to call her daughter to inform her of the approaching storm, but Leigh did not answer the phone, causing Vickie to worry. She drove back home to check on Leigh, only to find the garage door open and blood smeared in multiple locations throughout the house. Leigh has not been seen since.Contact us at: weeknightmysteries@gmail.comInstagram - https://www.instagram.com/weeknightmysteriesTikTok - https://www.tiktok.com/@weeknightmysteries

Join Trish and Rob for a conversation with... P. D. Newman has been immersed in the study and practice of shamanism, alchemy, hermetism, and theurgy for more than two decades. The author of Theurgy: Theory and Practice, Angels in Vermilion, and Alchemically Stoned: The Psychedelic Secret of Freemasonry. His latest book that we're going to ask him about is called” Tripping the Trail of Ghosts: Psychedelics and the Afterlife Journey in the Native American Mound Cultures. P.D.

In this episode, I talk with author and esoteric explorer P.D. Newman about his powerful new book Tripping the Trail of Ghosts: Psychedelics and the Afterlife Journey in Native American Mound Cultures. Together, we dive into the mysterious world of Southeastern Native American shamanic practices—specifically those connected to death, rebirth, and the spirit realm.Newman uncovers a largely overlooked legacy of entheogenic use among the Mississippian mound cultures, where potent plant allies like jimsonweed, nightshade, morning glory, psilocybin mushrooms, and even an ayahuasca-like brew he calls Missihuasca were used in sacred rites to connect with other realms.These powerful psychoactive journeys formed the basis for initiatory rites and afterlife preparation, centered around what was known as the Trail of Ghosts or Path of Souls—a visionary passage believed to carry the soul into the next world.We also explore the profound role that the compound DMT played in these ancient traditions. One of the biggest revelations is his rediscovery of Missihuasca, a Southeastern analogue to ayahuasca that may have been used by Native shamans to enter deep trance states and receive spiritual revelation in their earliest history.Together, we delve into the symbolic and energetic significance of the mound structures themselves, and their striking parallels with other sacred afterlife maps—like the Egyptian and Tibetan Books of the Dead.It's a riveting glimpse into a forgotten system of ancient spiritual technology designed to guide the soul through the ultimate mystery. An amazing episode… Drop in!P.D. Newman Bio:P. D. Newman has been immersed in the study and practice of shamanism, alchemy, hermetism, and theurgy for more than two decades. The author of Theurgy: Theory and Practice and Angels in Vermilion, he lives in Tupelo, Mississippi, with his wife, Rebecca, and his youngest son, Bacchus. Hosted on Acast.

Memory Feather, who was born with a misshapen hand and was able to communicate with animals, looks back to when she was a child living with her newly divorced mother in a dilapidated hotel far from home. Her mother, Virginia cleans rooms and turns occasional tricks to support Memory until 1953, when she's forced to return to the Mississippi Gulf Coast town where her difficult, bigoted parents live. Much to their disdain, Virginia's childhood friend Mac welcomes Mem and her mother to live with him and offers Virginia a job in his antique store. As a gay man in the 1950s, Mac suffers harassment and violence, and even Memory's cat Minerva knows that the good-looking hustler who's moved in with Mac is evil. Mem recalls her anxiety, her fears, and her role in the series of events that changed her life forever.

Exploring psychedelic spiritual practices and afterlife beliefs among the Mississippi mound cultures• Examines the Path of Souls or Trail of Ghosts, a Native American model for the after-death journey• Demonstrates how psychoactive plants were used to evoke the liminal state between life and death in initiatory rites and spirit journeys• Explores the symbology of the large earthwork mounds erected by the Indigenous people of the Mississippi Valley and how they connect to the Path of SoulsThe use of hallucinogenic substances like peyote and desert tobacco has long played a significant role in the spiritual practices and traditions of Native Americans. While the majority of those practices are well documented, the relationship between entheogens and Native Americans of the Southeast has gone largely unexplored.Examining the role of psychoactive plants in afterlife traditions, sacred rituals, and spirit journeying by shamans of the Mississippian mound cultures, P. D. Newman explores in depth the Native American death journey known as the "Trail of Ghosts" or "Path of Souls." He demonstrates how practices such as fasting and trancework when used with psychedelic plants like jimsonweed, black nightshade, morning glory, and amanita and psilocybin mushrooms could evoke the liminal state between life and death in initiatory rites and spirit journeys for shamans and chiefs. He explores the earthwork and platform mounds built by Indigenous cultures of the Mississippi Valley, showing how they quite likely served as early models for the Path of Souls. He also explores similarities between the Ghost Trail afterlife journey and the well-known Egyptian and Tibetan Books of the Dead.P. D. Newman has been immersed in the study and practice of shamanism, alchemy, hermetism, and theurgy for more than two decades.

To be a trailblazer is not an easy path. There are detractors, nay sayers, and critics, of course. But to pave the way for others to achieve great things in the field of eldercare takes heart and soul as well. Today's guest, Steve McAlilly, has accomplished this all. In addition to leading the development of the first-ever Green House Homes, he has served as president and CEO of Mississippi Methodist Senior Services in Tupelo for 31 years. As McAlilly prepares to retire this week, Susan Ryan had the opportunity to sit down with him to talk about his journey from a lawyer to that moment when he realized he had to build that first non-institutional nursing home in the country. McAlilly describes the transition to operating an innovative eldercare model that has improved wellbeing and quality outcomes for older adults for over 20 years and in more than 400 homes nationwide. On behalf of the Center for Innovation board and its team, we salute McAlilly for the indelible imprint he's made in forever changing the landscape of eldercare. He indeed has helped to change the world.
