We are proud to present a very special episode of In This Family as a bonus for Depresh Mode with John Moe listeners. In This Family is produced by John Moe in conjunction with Nexus Family Healing and it's about the connection between family and mental health. It's a fascinating and moving look at the Hmong culture, their relocation to the United States, and the generational trauma that has been activated by recent events involving ICE. It's a story you haven't heard told by a member of community you might not have heard much about. Newspaper columnist and community business leader Ka Vang was born on a CIA base in Thailand 50 years ago. She remembers eating from the garbage when there was no food to be had, witnessing rape and murder, and fleeing with her family to the United States after the Vietnam War and the Secret War. Ka is Hmong-American, part of a large community of people who aided the American effort and were relocated, largely to Minnesota. The trauma of the war and displacement had severe mental health effects on Ka's family, including depression, anxiety, and hyper-vigilance. Today, the Twin Cities region is seeing tremendous upheaval due to the ICE surge, which has seen thousands of people arrested, sent to detention facilities, and deported, even people who have a legal right to be in the United States. Ka says Hmong people who lived through the war in Asia are terrified and having flashbacks. Their children, having had trauma handed down, are rehearsing best practices for staying safe. And as for Ka, she doesn't feel like an American amid the ICE presence and feels more a matter of when rather than if she'll get taken.

Recorded live at O'Zone before the night fully kicks off, this episode drops into the VIP-area energy while the room is still coming together. The conversation moves through kink curiosity, swinger crossover, event setup, and what makes O'Zone feel different from more traditional kink spaces where people mostly sit and watch.From body painting and bed photo booths to aerialists, burlesque, flogging, and live-floor chaos, this one captures the room before general admission fully floods in. It is less polished sit-down interview and more in-the-room conversation, which is part of the draw.Key Topics / Search TermsO'Zone live eventkink and swinger crossoverBDSM curiosityVIP event setupaerialists, burlesque, and live performanceaftercare and communicationpoly dynamics and schedulingTwin Cities kink / lifestyle event cultureWhat We Talk AboutWhat O'Zone is and how the event is set up before the crowd fully arrivesWhy this space feels different from more traditional kink nightsHow swinger and kink communities overlap in real lifeWhat guests can expect from the rooms, performances, and party atmosphereTravis' vision for the event and how the night is structuredJustice's background in performance, production, and Twin Cities event workAugust's performer perspective, impact-play scenes, and aftercare discussionHow communication, comfort zones, and curiosity show up in live kink spacesGuests & CreditsTravis — O'Zone organizer / producerJustice — performer / producerAugust (“Lil Dancer” on CND) — featured performerAudio Note: This episode was recorded live on location at O'Zone.

Synopsis:  What happens when the President threatens to invoke the Insurrection Act? Two leading voices weigh in on how Congress, veterans, and citizens can push back against rising militarization. This show is made possible by you! To become a sustaining member go to LauraFlanders.org/donate Description [original air-date November 2025]:  The U.S. military is sworn to serve the Constitution, but that's getting complicated under Donald Trump. The President has deployed National Guard troops to half a dozen U.S. cities against the wishes of local officials and ICE agents are roaming around communities acting under unclear rules. Now the President is threatening to invoke the Insurrection Act. What difference would that make? Laura's guests are U.S. House Representative Pramila Jayapal and Marine veteran Janessa Goldbeck, who say it's time to reject authoritarianism and uphold the Constitution. Congresswoman Jayapal is the Ranking Member of the House Judiciary Subcommittee on Immigration Integrity, Security, and Enforcement and represents Washington State's 7th Congressional District. She has been at the forefront of congressional oversight and opposition to the Trump administration's immigration policies. Captain Goldbeck is CEO of Vet Voice, a national nonprofit that mobilizes veterans and military families to shape American democracy and defend the values they swore to protect. What can Congress, veterans and the general public do to stop the militarization of our cities? Join us for this powerful conversation, plus a commentary on the other times that the U.S. government has turned its military inward. Note: This conversation took place prior to the killings of Renee Good and Alex Pretti by ICE agents in MN] “What we're seeing now is the president attempting to reshape the U.S. military into a tool of his own domestic political control . . . And then to deploy uniformed service members and the National Guard across the country against the wishes of local elected leaders . . . I feel a lot of sadness and frustration on behalf of those who are serving in uniform today who are being put into this very partisan political position by the United States president.” - Janessa Goldbeck “What law enforcement should be doing — of any kind, whether it's ICE, National Guard, whoever — is trying to deescalate. What we clearly see this set of military actors doing is escalate, right? When you crack down brutally, when you shoot a rubber bullet at a faith leader in Chicago, or when you violently push someone down to the ground, who by the way happens to be the father of three U.S. Marines . . . I think that is really an attempt to suppress any kind of dissent.” - Rep. Pramila Jayapal Guests: •  Captain Janessa Goldbeck: Marine Corps Veteran; CEO, Vet Voice Foundation •  Congresswoman Pramila Jayapal: D-WA, 7th Congressional District Full Conversation Release: While our weekly shows are edited to time for broadcast on Public TV and community radio, we offer to our members and podcast subscribers the full uncut conversation.

This episode is all about client communication—what works, what blows up, and what should make a builder pause. Mark talks with Tim Rascher about how he spots "orange flags" earlier (especially when clients want budget and value-engineering talks behind closed doors). It's a quick, witty listen that'll make builders rethink boundaries, expectations, and how to keep the whole team rowing in the same direction.

A new survey is providing a clearer picture of the challenges businesses across the Twin Cities are facing due to the two-month long surge of federal agents. Neighborhood Development Center, or NDC, heard from more than 130 businesses and shared the results with a state Senate committee in February. Almost two thirds of respondents said the impact has been “high or critical.” Nearly 80 percent saw emergency financial assistance as the top priority. Natalia Mercado, director of business services with NDC, shared more of the findings with host Nina Moini.

Secretary of Homeland Security Kristi Noem testified before U.S. senators Tuesday about the tactics of federal agents in Minnesota. We heard more about what she said during the hearing.Plus, Google has identified itself as the company behind a proposed data center in Duluth.And state lawmakers are considering a ban on immigration enforcement agreements between local law enforcement and federal agencies. More on the bill and the arrangements it seeks to outlaw. We also heard more about the results from a survey looking at the impact of the federal surge on local businesses.And scholars from across the country met in the Twin Cities this week to talk about what ethical research looks like in a time of funding cuts and artificial intelligence.

El Burrito Mercado has been a bedrock of the West St. Paul community for nearly 50 years. It's changed a lot over that time, evolving from a small grocery store into a restaurant, deli, bakery, and so much more. Now, it's had to change again, as thousands of federal immigration agents have descended on this Twin Cities neighborhood over the past few months. Milissa Silva, the co-owner and CEO of El Burrito Mercado, tells us the story of how her immigrant parents' business became a community hub, and how she and her staff have increased security and set up a food delivery operation for people afraid to leave their homes.  Check out El Burrito Mercado's website and Instagram for ways to help the West St. Paul community.
