Brian Walshe was sentenced today to life in prison without parole for the murder of his wife Ana Walshe. Judge Diane Freniere called his actions "barbaric and incomprehensible" before handing down the maximum sentence on all counts — life for murder, plus consecutive terms for misleading police and illegally disposing of Ana's body. Ana Walshe, a 39-year-old mother of three and real estate executive, was last seen alive on New Year's Eve 2022 at the couple's Cohasset, Massachusetts home. Her body has never been recovered. What investigators did find was a digital trail that sealed Brian's fate: Google searches for "how to dispose of a body," "hacksaw best tool to dismember," and "can you be charged with murder without a body" — all made in the hours after Ana's presumed death. Surveillance footage captured Brian shopping for hacksaws, Tyvek suits, and cleaning supplies on New Year's Day. He paid cash. Wore a mask and gloves. Then he disposed of evidence in dumpsters across the region, including one near his mother's apartment. Investigators recovered Ana's blood-soaked belongings, a hacksaw with bone fragments, and pieces of carpet with her DNA embedded in the fibers. Brian never took the stand. His defense called zero witnesses. The jury deliberated six hours and returned a guilty verdict on first-degree murder. Today, Ana's sister Aleksandra delivered a devastating victim impact statement, telling the court her family lives with "an unbearable emptiness." The Walshe children — ages 2, 4, and 6 when their mother was killed — are now in state custody and will grow up without her. This video breaks down the full case: the evidence, the motive, the trial, and what happens next as Brian Walshe's conviction heads to automatic appeal. Justice was served. But for Ana's family, the grief never ends. #BrianWalshe #AnaWalshe #WalsheTrial #TrueCrime #MurderTrial #JusticeForAna #LifeWithoutParole #CohassetMurder #TrueCrimeNews #WalsheSentencing Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

Brian Walshe has been convicted of first-degree murder in the death of his wife Ana Walshe. After just six hours of deliberation, a Norfolk County jury found the fifty-year-old Cohasset man guilty of premeditated murder, making this one of the rare cases where a conviction was secured without the victim's body ever being recovered. Ana Walshe was a thirty-nine-year-old mother of three who disappeared on New Year's Day 2023. Prosecutors presented devastating digital evidence including Google searches from Brian's devices for best way to dispose of a body, hacksaw best tool to dismember, and how long for someone to be missing to inherit. Surveillance footage showed him purchasing a hacksaw, Tyvek suit, and cleaning supplies at Lowe's on New Year's Day. Investigators recovered blood-stained items from dumpsters including Ana's Hunter boots, pieces of carpet with her DNA, and a hacksaw that tested positive for her blood. But this was not Brian Walshe's first calculated crime. Years earlier, he allegedly stole nearly eight hundred thousand dollars from his own father during a home refinance deal and then vanished for over a decade. When Dr. Thomas Walshe died in 2018, he left Brian nothing in his will but his best wishes. According to court filings, Brian got into his father's home before anyone else, allegedly destroyed the will, and convinced probate court he was the rightful heir. He drained at least two hundred fifty thousand dollars from bank accounts and sold off a Salvador Dalí painting, a Miró, oriental rugs, and jewelry before the scheme was stopped. One longtime family friend wrote that Brian had been diagnosed as a sociopath at Austen Riggs psychiatric hospital. The pattern is impossible to ignore: forge, destroy, manipulate, and take what is not yours. Brian Walshe now faces mandatory life in prison without parole. #BrianWalshe #AnaWalshe #WalsheVerdict #GuiltyVerdict #TrueCrime #MurderTrial #CohassetMurder #JusticeForAna #FirstDegreeMurder #TrueCrimeNews #ThomasWalshe #InheritanceFraud #CrimePodcast #TrueCrimeYouTube #MassachusettsCrime #NoBodyMurder #LifeInsuranceMurder #TrueCrimeCommunity #CriminalJustice #CourtroomVerdict Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

Brian Walshe has been convicted of first-degree murder in the death of his wife Ana Walshe, who disappeared on New Year's Day 2023. After just six hours of deliberation, a Norfolk County jury found the 50-year-old Cohasset man guilty of premeditated murder — making this one of the rare cases where a first-degree murder conviction was secured without the victim's body ever being recovered. Ana Walshe, a 39-year-old mother of three who worked as a real estate manager in Washington D.C., was last seen alive in the early morning hours of January 1, 2023, after a New Year's Eve celebration at the family home. Prosecutors presented devastating digital evidence including Google searches from Brian's devices for "best way to dispose of a body," "hacksaw best tool to dismember," and "how long for someone to be missing to inherit." Surveillance footage showed Walshe purchasing a hacksaw, Tyvek suit, and cleaning supplies at Lowe's on New Year's Day. Investigators recovered blood-stained items from dumpsters including Ana's Hunter boots, pieces of carpet with her DNA, and a hacksaw that tested positive for her blood. The defense argued Ana died suddenly and unexpectedly, sending Brian into a panic — but called zero witnesses and Walshe himself declined to testify. Prosecutors pointed to a $2.7 million life insurance policy, a deteriorating marriage, and Ana's affair with a D.C. realtor as motive. Sentencing is scheduled for Wednesday where Walshe faces mandatory life in prison without the possibility of parole. Ana's sister released a statement saying simply: "Justice has been served." #BrianWalshe #AnaWalshe #WalsheVerdict #GuiltyVerdict #TrueCrime #MurderTrial #CohassetMurder #JusticeForAna #FirstDegreeMurder #TrueCrimeNews Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

Brian Walshe is on trial for murdering and dismembering his wife, Ana — a woman whose body has never been found. He has already pleaded guilty to disposing of her remains and lying to investigators, but maintains he didn't kill her. His explanation: he woke up, found Ana dead from an unexplained medical event, panicked, and tried to “protect his children.” The prosecution says the evidence tells a very different story. In this full interview, retired FBI Special Agent Robin Dreeke — former chief of the Bureau's Counterintelligence Behavioral Analysis Program — breaks down every behavioral marker in this case: Walshe's police interviews, his shifting explanations, the marriage dynamics, the hidden affair, and the sequence of Google searches that began at 4:55 a.m. with “how long before a body starts to smell.” We also examine the explosive testimony from Day 6 of the trial. Jurors watched surveillance video of a masked man in blue latex gloves pushing a cart through Lowe's on New Year's Day, buying a hacksaw, hatchet, mops, buckets, and a Tyvek suit — all paid for in cash. Hours later, prosecutors say Walshe dumped a trash bag behind a closed liquor store. Inside that bag: blood-soaked carpet, human hair, and a piece of Gucci jewelry Ana owned. Crime lab experts testified that nearly every tool recovered from dumpsters tested positive for blood — including the hacksaw, hatchet, hammer, and tin snips. The basement showed blood stains near black trash bags. The bedroom — where the defense claims Ana died suddenly — was forensically clean. No blood. No disturbance. No biological trace. The medical examiner testified that sudden natural death in a healthy 39-year-old woman is “pretty rare.” After this breakdown, you'll understand the evidence the jury is weighing — and what it actually means. #BrianWalshe #AnaWalshe #WalsheTrial #TrueCrimeNews #ForensicEvidence #RobinDreeke #FBIAnalysis #MurderTrial #TrueCrimePodcast #JusticeForAna Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

The Brian Walshe murder trial took a stunning turn Thursday morning when the defense rested without calling a single witness. Not Brian Walshe. Not their forensic experts. Not the medical professional who was supposed to explain how a healthy 39-year-old woman just drops dead in bed. Nothing. This comes just 24 hours after Walshe's attorneys told the judge he would take the stand. Instead, when asked directly by Judge Diane Freniere, Walshe confirmed: "I will not testify." After eight days of prosecution testimony and 50 witnesses, the defense offered zero counter-evidence to support the "sudden unexplained death" theory they promised in opening statements. This morning, both sides deliver 45-minute closing arguments, then deliberations begin. The prosecution built their case on Brian Walshe's Google searches starting at 4:52 a.m. on January 1st, 2023 — searches for how to dispose of a body, how to dismember, hacksaw recommendations, and how to clean DNA from a knife. The jury saw surveillance footage of Walshe buying hatchets, hacksaws, Tyvek suits, and cleaning supplies while wearing a surgical mask and blue gloves, paying in cash. They heard that Ana's DNA was found on the hacksaw blade with statistical certainty in the nonillions. They learned about the $2.7 million life insurance policy naming Brian as sole beneficiary, and the affair with D.C. real estate broker William Fastow — whose name Brian searched on Christmas Day 2022. Brian Walshe has already pleaded guilty to dismembering Ana's body and misleading police. He faces life in prison without parole if convicted of first-degree murder. We break down everything the jury heard, what the defense accomplished in cross-examination, and what to expect as this case goes to deliberation. #BrianWalshe #AnaWalshe #WalsheTrial #TrueCrime #MurderTrial #ClosingArguments #Massachusetts #CohassetMurder #TrueCrimeNews #JusticeForAna Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

Day 7 of the Brian Walshe murder trial delivered the most damning forensic testimony yet. A Massachusetts State Police DNA analyst confirmed that Ana Walshe's genetic material was recovered from a piece of human tissue found in a dumpster near Brian's mother's apartment — the closest investigators have come to finding her remains nearly three years after her disappearance. But that wasn't all. Ana's DNA was also identified on a blood-stained hacksaw blade, a hatchet head, the handles of both tools, bloody towels, carpet fragments, and a clump of hair pulled from the same trash bags prosecutors say Brian Walshe used to dispose of his wife's body. The statistical probability? At least 30 nonillion times more likely to be Ana's DNA than an unknown person's. Several items also contained DNA from both Ana and Brian Walshe, including bloodstained slippers and a Tyvek suit. One item — gauze with a red-brown stain — matched Brian alone. Prosecutors had previously shown the jury a photo of a cut on his thumb. New surveillance footage showed Brian Walshe shopping at HomeGoods on January 2nd and 4th, 2023, buying rugs, towels, and bath mats — using store credit from his dead wife's previous returns. Prosecutors suggest he replaced the living room rug after Ana's death, pointing to photos showing a different carpet in the home when police searched it days later. The defense pushed back on cross-examination, arguing DNA testing can't determine when or how biological material was deposited and suggesting items may have cross-contaminated in the trash compactor. But prosecutors countered that cleaning products — including the hydrogen peroxide and ammonia Brian purchased on January 1st — can destroy blood evidence. Wednesday brings testimony from Gem Mutlu, Ana's former boss and the last person besides Brian known to have seen her alive. The prosecution may rest its case as early as tomorrow. #BrianWalshe #BrianWalsheTrial #AnaWalshe #TrueCrime #MurderTrial #CohassetMurder #DNAEvidence #TrueCrimeNews #MassachusettsCrime #JusticeForAna Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

Day 6 of the Brian Walshe murder trial gave jurors something they won't forget — surveillance footage of a masked man in blue latex gloves pushing a cart through a Lowe's on New Year's Day 2023. Inside that cart: a hacksaw, a hatchet, a utility knife, a Tyvek suit, mops, buckets, and cleaning supplies. The total was $463.23. He paid cash. Hours later, prosecutors say Walshe drove to a liquor store in Swampscott — a place where he was a regular, a place that was closed for the holiday — and tossed a trash bag into the dumpster behind the building. Police recovered that bag. Inside they found carpet fragments with blood clots, human hair, and a piece of Gucci jewelry with the brand name engraved on it. Ana Walshe owned Gucci jewelry. Crime lab specialist Matthew Sheehan walked the jury through the blood evidence. The hacksaw tested positive. The hatchet tested positive — and carried a greasy residue consistent with cutting into human tissue. The hammer, the tin snips, towels, slippers, carpet pieces — all positive. A kitchen knife hidden above the refrigerator in the Walshe home came back positive for blood. But here's where the defense runs into trouble. The bedroom — where Brian Walshe's lawyers claim Ana died suddenly of natural causes — was forensically clean. No biological evidence on the floor, even after investigators dug up a section of it. No blood in the bathrooms. No blood on the stairs. But the basement floor? Covered in blood stains, right next to a pile of black trash bags. The state medical examiner testified that sudden unexpected death in a healthy 39-year-old woman is "pretty rare" and put sudden arrhythmia "at the very bottom of the list" of explanations. He couldn't determine cause of death because there's no body. Brian Walshe already pleaded guilty to disposing of his wife's remains. The prosecution is a third of the way through their case, and the picture is getting clearer by the day. #BrianWalshe #AnaWalshe #WalsheTrial #TrueCrime #MurderTrial #CohassetMurder #ForensicEvidence #TrueCrimeCommunity #JusticeForAna #CrimeLab Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

The state medical examiner testified that sudden unexpected death in a healthy 39-year-old woman is "pretty rare" and put sudden arrhythmia "at the very bottom of the list" of explanations. He couldn't determine cause of death because there's no body. Brian Walshe already pleaded guilty to disposing of his wife's remains. The prosecution is a third of the way through their case, and the picture is getting clearer by the day. #BrianWalshe #AnaWalshe #WalsheTrial #TrueCrime #MurderTrial #CohassetMurder #ForensicEvidence #TrueCrimeCommunity #JusticeForAna #CrimeLab Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

Day 3 of the Brian Walshe murder trial revealed the most disturbing evidence yet. A Massachusetts State Police forensic scientist walked the jury through ten bags of garbage pulled from a dumpster near Brian Walshe's mother's apartment—and what investigators found inside tells a story the defense cannot explain away. A hacksaw with red-brown stains on the blade. Slippers soaked in what appeared to be blood with human hair still attached. Pieces of a rug covered in blood and human tissue. A Tyvek suit. Safety goggles. A hatchet. Hydrogen peroxide. Cleaning supplies. This wasn't panic. This was a kit. Prosecutors also showed jurors a photograph of Ana Walshe alive and smiling, lying on a green patterned rug in her living room, playing with one of her sons. Then they showed the jury pieces of that same rug—cut up, stained, and recovered from the trash. The prosecution called a life insurance agent who testified Ana held policies worth $1.25 million with Brian as the sole beneficiary. She received the highest possible health rating from New York Life. This was not a woman about to suddenly die in her sleep. Records custodians from Uber, Lyft, JetBlue, and U.S. Customs confirmed Ana Walshe didn't take a single rideshare, board a single flight, or leave the country after December 30, 2022. Brian told police she left for the airport on New Year's morning. That was a lie—one even his own defense now admits. The family Volvo tested positive for blood in five locations. Sixteen plastic gloves were found in the center console. Two child car seats sat in the back. Tomorrow, prosecutors are expected to call William Fastow—the man Ana was having an affair with, and the man Brian Walshe searched by name on Christmas Day 2022. This is day three. And the evidence is only getting worse. #BrianWalshe #AnaWalshe #WalsheTrial #TrueCrime #MurderTrial #CohassetMurder #TrueCrimeNews #WalsheEvidence Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

If American socialists were real, they'd love tariffs. They'd be screaming for tariffs, because tariffs are the only way to fund the utopia they claim to want. Tariffs don't chase billionaires who vanish into tax havens, and they don't raid the paychecks of workers. They're collected at the border, unavoidable, clean. You want to sell in the biggest market in the world? You pay. That revenue goes straight to the state. Under Trump, tariffs have already brought in over a hundred billion dollars and could triple that. That's real money, not theoretical “tax the rich” fantasies. Yet the very people who talk loudest about free healthcare, free universities, and social programs refuse to embrace tariffs. Why? Because Trump liked them, and that makes them evil.Critics say tariffs are a tax on consumers. Technically true, but shallow. Tariffs hit imports and the wholesalers profiting off disposable junk. Yes, prices rise, but companies also eat costs. Profit margins shrink, shareholders cry, and the 400% markups on Chinese garbage vanish. Tariffs force corporations to bleed instead of workers. Meanwhile, state revenue swells, funding services. If you care about kids drowning in student debt or clinics closing, you need revenue. Tariffs generate it without touching paychecks. They may make goods cost more, but they make services possible—and that's the trade-off.Socialism is low material, high services. You own less cheap crap, but you gain healthcare, retirement, childcare, and safety nets. You buy one TV and use it to death, one handbag, one camera. That's how Europe works: fewer goods, better services. When I lived in Germany, food was cheap, local, delicious, but electronics and furniture were expensive. Why? Because of tariffs and VAT. Germany protects its markets and funds its programs. Italy, France—same logic. They export value and block cheap washback.My friend Mark Wayne Harrison—yes, with the serial-killer middle name—said something that stuck: you can innovate your way to almost free energy, but you can't innovate your way to more materials. Energy can be hacked and scaled. Materials must be mined and refined, and there's only so much. Earth is the asteroid. Mining space is a fantasy. Materials are finite, and tariffs acknowledge that reality. They slow consumption, make people think twice, and push the market toward quality. They make domestic products competitive and fund the state without chasing ghosts.Mark even joked about building cheap Tyvek houses with infinite HVAC because energy will be free. Great, but where do 9 billion HVAC units come from? The copper, steel, plastics, rare earths? Materials are the bottleneck, not energy. And that's why tariffs matter—they align consumption with what's real.American socialists hate tariffs because they're performative capitalists. They want to want socialism, but not if it touches their portfolios or Amazon carts. They'd rather protect their 401(k)s than fund universal services. They'd rather scream about fairness than use the one policy that could deliver it. Tariffs are the only path to a high-service, low-material society. Energy may be nearly free someday, but materials never will. Tariffs admit that truth. If American socialists were real, they'd love them. But they're not, so they don't.

Entender al cliente, conectar con sus necesidades, e integrar la innovación en toda la cultura organizacional.También hablamos de cómo celebrar 100 años sin sonar a video institucional, por qué la comunicación interna es tan importante como la externa, y qué papel juegan marcas como Tyvek o Kevlar en nuestra vida diaria (sí, la de los chalecos antibalas).Y bonus: ¿cuál es el gran reto de las nuevas generaciones en el mundo laboral? Spoiler: la falta de habilidades sociales postpandemia está pegando más fuerte de lo que creemos.Una conversación directa, útil, divertida y honesta sobre comunicación estratégica, posicionamiento, y los desafíos de conectar desde la autenticidad.Los Dioses del Marketing es un podcast de marketing producido por Básico FM para Genio.soy.
SHOW NOTES: Hello, home improvement enthusiasts! We're so glad you're with us, especially as July is almost over and the year is just flying by. Life changes, but The Money Pit is here to be your constant guide through all your home improvement adventures. Coming up, we've got tips to keep your home thriving all summer long! - Staycation Tips: We share easy, affordable ways to turn your home into an ultimate staycation spot, from creating spa vibes in your bathroom to resort-worthy backyard spaces. - Saving Water: Water usage often spikes in the summer, so we'll dive into irrigation checks, sump pump tests, searching out those slow leaks, and even some water-saving tips to keep everything in tip-top shape and save you some money. - Summer Home Maintenance: Now that we're halfway through summer, we've got your midsummer home maintenance checklist. These quick, proactive projects will help you avoid breakdowns, catch hidden issues, and keep your home running smoothly all season long without the panic of a mid-August surprise repair. Q & A: We're also going to hear from some of our listeners about their burning home improvement questions, including: - Darlene from West Virginia asked about putting a metal roof on her home. We advised that it's generally best to take the roof down to the sheathing for a durable, long-lasting investment like a metal roof, which can last 50+ years. - Jules called in about dealing with cracked plaster walls in an old home, wondering whether to rip it out or patch it. We discussed how to determine if the plaster is repairable or if it's time to put in some drywall. - Sharon from Ohio has an issue with her furnace pulling sewer gas from her sump pump. This is likely due to a missing or dried-out P-trap in the drain line, which prevents sewer gases from entering the home. - Bill in Illinois had a question about cracks in his 28-year-old shower tub after a fall. While a fiberglass repair kit can offer a temporary, emergency fix, a more permanent and economical solution might be a bath fitter-type shower insert that covers the existing tub. - Buck from New England wrote in about adding vinyl siding to his summer home. We recommended he remove the old siding, add a new weather barrier like Tyvek paper, and then install the vinyl siding for a better look around windows and doors. Plus, we'll touch on other quick tips like how to maintain your fridge to keep it cool in the summer heat by vacuuming condenser coils and checking door seals. ASK A QUESTION: Need help with your own home improvement or décor question? We'd love to help!

In 2023, prosecutors assembled a highly detailed and damning body of evidence against Brian Walshe in support of the charge that he murdered his wife, Ana Walshe. The centerpiece of the case was a chilling series of internet searches conducted on his son's iPad, including queries like “how to dispose of a body,” “how long before a body starts to smell,” “how to clean blood from a wooden floor,” and “dismemberment and best ways to dispose of a body.” These searches were conducted around the time Ana went missing and suggested not only forethought, but a deliberate attempt to plan and execute a cover-up. Brian Walshe initially told police that Ana had left early for a business trip, but his search history painted a vastly different picture—one of someone actively researching how to eliminate a human body just hours after his wife was last seen.Beyond the digital trail, the forensic and physical evidence added serious weight to the case. Trash bags recovered from a transfer station contained blood-stained items such as towels, rags, a Tyvek suit, rubber gloves, a hacksaw, a hatchet, and a necklace believed to belong to Ana. DNA testing confirmed the presence of both Ana's and Brian's DNA on multiple items. Surveillance footage captured a man resembling Walshe discarding trash bags into dumpsters, and cellphone data placed him near the locations where those items were dumped. Investigators also discovered blood in the basement of the family's home, along with a damaged knife and cleaning supplies. A trip to Home Depot, where Brian purchased mops, buckets, tarps, and other cleaning materials shortly after Ana's disappearance, further bolstered the prosecution's theory of premeditated murder and attempted evidence destruction. Taken together, the evidence formed a coherent and devastating narrative that Ana Walshe was murdered in her home, dismembered, and disposed of in a calculated attempt to erase all traces of the crime.(commercial at 8:46)to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.comsource:Brian Walshe: Prosecutors detail extensive evidence in killing of Ana Walshe.

Did you know that over 60% of the air we breathe inside our homes comes from this often neglected area? Eric's got the scoop on how to transform that creepy space into a clean air powerhouse. From picking up some Tyvek suits and N99 masks to ridding the area of unwanted trash, he lays out the steps for creating a solid vapor barrier that keeps moisture at bay.

The latest mid-week update from Eric G dives headfirst into the world of construction, and let me tell you, it's not all sunshine and rainbows. We're talking about a noticeable slowdown in the construction industry, with contractors and subcontractors hitting the brakes harder than a kid on a bike going downhill. Is a construction crash on the horizon? Eric doesn't think so, but he does believe the market is taking a breather as folks hold their wallets tight, waiting to see how tariffs and interest rates will play out. He also spills the tea on HVAC systems, suggesting that if your system is older than five years, now's the time to consider a maintenance agreement. And if you've got some DIY projects in mind, now could be the perfect moment to tackle those big decks and fences while contractors are twiddling their thumbs. Switching gears, Eric revisits a construction site right down the street, where he's been keeping a close eye on a multi-million dollar home. Spoiler alert: the building science—or lack thereof—being employed is enough to make any home improvement enthusiast cringe. With Tyvek house wrap being improperly installed and flexible flashing placed in all the wrong spots, it's a recipe for disaster. Eric's got a knack for spotting these construction faux pas, and he's not shy about pointing them out. He emphasizes how crucial it is for homeowners to know what's going on behind the walls of their new homes, especially when shortcuts like these could lead to long-term damage. He wraps up with a call to action for listeners to stay informed and vigilant, ensuring they don't fall victim to shoddy construction practices. Lastly, we dive into the whirlwind world of smart home technology, where things can get outdated faster than you can say “upgrade.” Eric highlights the frustration many face when their once cutting-edge gadgets become obsolete. Remember that fancy smart thermostat you bought? It might just be time for an upgrade if it's not playing nice anymore. He encourages listeners to keep an eye on their tech and be proactive about replacements, especially when companies decide to cut support for older models. So, whether you're a DIY warrior or just trying to keep your tech in check, Eric's got the insights you need to navigate the ever-changing landscape of home improvement and construction. Tune in for a show filled with valuable nuggets of wisdom and a sprinkle of humor—because who said home improvement couldn't be fun?Takeaways: The construction industry is experiencing a significant slowdown, causing many projects to pause or halt entirely. Smart home technology can become outdated surprisingly fast, often in just a few years. Poor building practices, like improper installation of Tyvek, are being used in high-end home constructions, leading to potential long-term problems. Contractors are worried about product shortages due to tariffs and reduced overseas orders; now might be the time to start your project. Homeowners should consider maintenance agreements for HVAC systems over five years old to avoid costly replacements. Upgrading outdated smart home devices is crucial, as they often become unsupported and may not function properly after a few years. Companies mentioned in this episode: Monument Grills Tyvek Carrier Nest Ring The construction industry is hitting the brakes hard, and it's a wild ride we're on! Eric G dives into the slowdown of everything construction-related, from contractors to remodeling, and muses whether we're teetering on the edge of a construction crash. Spoiler alert: the house prices aren't going anywhere, but the anxiety is palpable as folks wait to see how tariffs and interest rates play out. Plus, we're taking a peek at that multi-million dollar home being built down

In the impact space, there is often pressure to work for free or support every cause. You can easily find yourself having to make tough decisions about which projects to take on. Our guest, Rebekah Miel of Miel Creative, will share practical tips pulling from years of experience about how she has managed these experiences, lessons she has learned the hard way, what she learned about how to avoid the overwhelm, and how to make decisions that still align with your values. “In my younger years, I aspired to changing the world. Then reality kicked in, and I settled for 500 square feet.” - Betty Soskin, 102 year old, retired park rangerIn their career, Rebekah Miel has had the good fortune of being able to travel around the globe to hear the stories of frontline community members impacted by everything from climate change to natural disasters to harmful industry. As an empath and an impact-focused entrepreneur, it can be overwhelming. There are too many directions to go in. While it is a noble pursuit to want to change the world, it's important to recognize that making an impact often starts with small, intentional acts close to home. Rebekah notes: "The question I find myself asking over and over is: how can I create change in my industry while staying true to my values? It's not about the size of the impact I make, but the depth and authenticity of it. A common mistake I see is the belief that impact has to be massive to be meaningful. This often leads to burnout or a sense of inadequacy when the reality doesn't meet the ideal. What I want people to understand is that focusing on smaller, manageable projects can often lead to more sustainable and genuine impact. True change is a collective effort, and sometimes the best thing we can do is inspire and empower others to take action alongside us. Other times the best thing is simply show up and listen." Rebekah Miel is that lone pair of headlights driving in the opposite direction during a hurricane evacuation. You'll no longer find her sweating through a Tyvek suit in the lower 9th or eating curry in a refugee camp in Unawatuna, but that doesn't mean she is any less risk-averse. These days she's balancing the death-defying feat of raising pre-teen twins with the act of listening hard for how to be a good citizen in her adopted hometown of Durham, NC.

SHOW NOTES: In this podcast episode, we debunk a popular but misguided lawn care strategy for mowing your grass. We'll also discuss why metal roofs are winning over homeowners by promising protection for decades, then delve into advancements in hardwood flooring. Tune in for insights on tackling your home improvement projects with expert guidance! - Lawn Care: Follow these mowing tips to ensure a healthy lawn that is a cut above the rest. - Metal Roofs: Steel the show by installing a metal roof for durability, style, and energy efficiency. - Hardwood Floors: Easy-to-install hardwood flooring brings beauty and value to a home. Q & A: - Brick Adhesive: Debbie is struggling to remove glue around her brick fireplace. There's no way to do it without ruining the surface, so we suggest installing new plasterboard over the brick. - Attic Ventilation: Paul has a tile roof with gable vents and a roof-mounted AC unit. We discuss his best options for attic ventilation. - Hardwood Floors: What's the best way to refinish a worn hardwood floor? Joyce gets tips on lightly sanding the surface and applying an oil-based polyurethane. - Plywood Siding: Dennis has T1-11 siding and wants to change it. He can simply install Tyvek and HardiePlank siding right over the old siding. - Exterior Paint: The paint is peeling and flaking off Donna's cedar shingles. She must pressure wash and scrape off the old layers of paint, then use an oil-based primer for good adhesion before repainting the cedar siding. - Sink Finish: Matthew has one sink flange that corrodes every time it's replaced. It's an odd problem that may be caused by the water acidity and the quality of the flange finish. - Insect Screening: Flies are coming in under the edges of a barn roof. Diane should install screening over any vent openings and have a professional apply pesticide for flies. - Heated Tile Floor: How should electric heating be installed under a tile bathroom floor? Tim gets advice on subfloor options and piping for the heated floor system. - Roof Vents: Debra has ceiling stains directly under the roof vent pipes. It's easy to replace any flashing and rubber boots that are deteriorated and cracked. ASK A QUESTION: Need help with your own home improvement or décor question? We'd love to help!

In today's episode of Backpacker Radio presented by The Trek, we are once again loving love. That's right, it's the 4th edition of our Valentine's Day-themed show. Today we catch up with Wesley and Marie Black, known on trail as Yeti Legs and Basecamp. Less than two years after meeting, they were not only married but together taking on a thru-hike of the PCT. Wesley and Marie pull no punches in sharing the nitty-gritty of making a relationship work during a thru-hike and are especially candid about their on-trail sex life including their hygiene practices, foreplay, what they use for lubrication, best positions in a tent, and more. This one is entertaining, enlightening, and slightly erotic. Strap in. We wrap the show with what we would do if we could be our significant other for a day, the triple crown of petty fights we have with our partners, Marie shares a plastic melting shit story, and Chaunce has a very dumb stupid thing of the week.

In today's episode of Backpacker Radio presented by The Trek, we are joined by David “Moondog” Roop. Moondog, alongside his buddy, has done the Natchez Trace Trail, Florida Trail, and 500 miles through New Mexico, not on foot, but instead on skateboard which he refers to as a thru-skate. We learn all about what goes into such a unique adventure, including how his gear differs relative to traditional backpacking, what terrain is skateboardable and what isn't, how sore his push muscles get over the course of a full day of skateboarding, and more. We wrap the show with the first edition of the 2023 AT thru-hiker survey results, the weirdest things we've brought home after a night out, and our triple crown of campaign promises.

In today's episode of Backpacker Radio presented by The Trek, we are joined by someone you are likely already following on Instagram, Matt Lyons known on trail as "Schmutz". Schmutz is a thru-hiker, social media comedian and celebrity. He gives us an overview on his process for making short comedic skits, how life has changed during his rise to fame, and all that's gone into growing his Instagram and TikTok to nearly a half million followers.

Schmutz also gives us a preview of his forthcoming documentary about southbound thru-hiking the PCT. We wrap the show opining on why there aren't wild chickens, the triple crown of things that have made us question our own IQs, and some details about how you can get your hands on Backpacker Radio's infamous hair wall.

What you'll learn in this episode: How Kristen decided to start the next phase of her career at Scotland's University of Dundee Why metalsmithing and jewelry attracts people who like a challenge How creating jewelry can be like creating an opera What young jewelry artists can learn by entering competitive exhibitions Why curiosity can help artists overcome shyness and fear About Kristin Beeler Kristin Beeler joined the faculty of Duncan of Jordanstone College of Art and Design at the University of Dundee, Scotland UK in 2023. From 2002-2023, she was Professor of Art and Coordinator of Jewelry and Metalwork at Long Beach City College in the Los Angeles, California area. She is native to the Blue Ridge Mountains of central Appalachia and is a second generation graduate of historically interracial and craft-centered Berea College receiving a BFA in Crafts and Applied Design with a minor in Philosophy (1989). Her Master of Fine Arts in Jewelry from the University of Arizona (1994) was followed later by post graduate studies at Alchemia Jewellery School in Florence, Italy (2011) and Atelier Rudee, Bangkok, Thailand (2013). Solo exhibitions include Integumentum 2021 at Baltimore Jewelry Center, Baltimore, Maryland, Archive of Rag and Bone at Mesa Contemporary Arts Museum, Phoenix, Arizona (2016) and Beauty and Other Monsters at Velvet da Vinci Gallery, San Fransisco, California (2007).

Although any international move comes with fear, Kristin has relied on a sense of curiosity to keep pushing her work froward. She joined the Jewelry Journey Podcast to talk about why certain artists are drawn to metal; how she tries to create context through her work; and why some of the most important lessons she learned were from submitting her work to competitive exhibitions. Read the episode transcript here. Sharon: Hello, everyone. Welcome to the Jewelry Journey Podcast. This is the second part of a two-part episode. If you haven't heard part one, please head to TheJewelryJourney.com. If you look at Kristin Beeler's jewelry, she looks like she's a risk taker, but that's not really true. She has followed a well-worn path, but she also has risk in her work. She received her master's and then became a professor of art at Long Beach City College. She teaches both metal arts and jewelry. She is the Coordinator of Jewelry and Metalwork for Long Beach City College. Welcome back. Did you have to do a lot of looking to find a school like that in the U.S.? Kristin: It was a school my mother went to, so I was second generation. Sharon: Wow! What are your thoughts about metalwork versus jewelry arts? I saw that you did some gloves in Tyvek. It was hard to pin down what you do because it's very esoteric. It has a lot of meaning. I kept asking, “Why this?” Kristin: The work I do is more driven by an idea and trying to build a full context for an idea. The jewelry is part of that context. It's a bit like going to the opera. I love opera, and I love it because it's a full context. The stage is opera. The music is opera. The singing is opera. The costuming is opera. It is all of those things, and those things come together to produce this one idea. I wouldn't say my work is theatrical, but I think it has some operatic qualities when it works well. It's not meant to follow one particular pathway because, as I said, not everything is a piece of jewelry. Some things are meant to manifest through other things, and jewelry is a part of that. Sharon: I see that you've been in a lot of competitions, where your jewelry is judged. Do you have trepidations? I can't imagine doing anything like that. Kristin: It's really hard at first. It's one of the hardest things to get my students to do because when you do it, the risk of failure is huge. You're going to be rejected, but it is such good practice. That's what being an artist is about: trying to find the place where your work fits, and if your work isn't fitting into the place you want to go and into the trajectory you want, figuring out how to make it go into that trajectory. It makes shifts to what you're working on. I haven't done it in quite a long time; most of what I do now is invitational work, but I do find it interesting to enter competitive exhibitions. It does a couple of things. Usually if I'm applying for a competitive exhibition, it could be because I want to get my work in front of a juror, or it's in a location where I want to go, where I have friends. Or it's a theme I like and I find interesting. But I had to go through a period of doing it and becoming O.K. with someone saying no and doing it anyway. When I was in graduate school, I was told, “Be prepared to wallpaper your room with rejection letters. Get rejected as much and as often as you can because it is a skill to build up and not let that stop you.” Sharon: Are you ever rejected if it's invitational? Kristin: If it's invitational, it's because they've seen my work and they want something in particular. Sharon: That must have been a big hurdle in the beginning. To be rejected must have been a big hurdle. Kristin: It probably was. Looking back on it now, it's funny. I was silly to be so worried about that. I think I was lucky that my work was pretty readily accepted. I think I did quite well. Even going into this new career—I'm basically going into a second career—there are moments when I think, “I don't know if I can do this. What was I thinking?” and I can go back to those moments previously where I tried to do something where uncertainty was guaranteed, or I didn't know how it was going to work out. I can say, “Well, I did that, and it worked out O.K.” Sharon: Did SNAG help you? You were on the board of SNAG. Why don't you tell us what it is? Kristin: The Society of North American Goldsmiths is the organization for the field. I have worked with SNAG since 1999 or 1998. That was when I first started volunteering for them. I started working with SNAG because I would go to the conferences at the encouragement of my graduate faculty, and I was kind of terrified. There were a lot of people there whose work I would see in publications or I'd hear about them. I was quite shy, so the easiest thing for me to do was offer to volunteer for something. If I don't know what to do, I'll work, so volunteering was a perfect thing to do. It was intuitive. It wasn't planned at all, but I met so many interesting people by volunteering at the conferences. They would say, “Oh, would you be able to do this?” and I would say, “Well, yeah,” and then I would meet more interesting people. I don't know that it was a great expansion time for my work because there are only so many hours in the day. When you're putting your energy out for one thing, it's not necessarily going in the other direction. So, I don't know that I was accomplishing as much in my studio, but I was meeting really, really interesting people and having some really interesting conversations. I think that that was one of the most valuable things about being involved with SNAG, just getting to know the community in a deep way. I served on the board of SNAG for five years between 2001 and 2005. I've had some job with SNAG almost every year since then, some small thing, helping with exhibitions. I have worked with the Diversity, Equity, Access and Inclusion Committee. I have worked with the Educational Endowment Committee. Currently I serve as trustee for the SNAG Educational Endowment Scholarship Trust. That is my primary role with SNAG at this point. Sharon: Do you recommend it to your students as a way to learn about the field? Kristin: Always, yeah. That and listening to Jewelry Journey. Sharon: I don't know about that. I was thinking about you listening to other people's opinions. I once heard someone say that they felt they had to know who the artist was before they could wear the piece of jewelry. I just felt like, “Well, is it pretty? Do I like it?” and that sort of thing. That's why I would be intimidated. Kristin: It was interesting to humanize all of those things. Often the work can be much richer once you have a better idea of the person who made it. It can alter your perspective on pieces to know who made it. Sometimes you might not want to know, but I think one of the great blessings of this field is that it is full of generous and warmhearted people who are so willing to share what they know. Sharon: Do you consider yourself one of those people willing to share what you know? Kristin: I hope to be, yeah. Sharon: I'm struck by the fact that you say you were shy, because you don't come across that way at all. Does that present itself in your reluctance in going abroad and when you started teaching? Was that a concern? Kristin: Yes, I was pathologically shy, but more than that I was curious. I think curiosity trumps those reluctances if you allow it to. Being curious takes you outside of yourself. You can become involved in other people's stories and other people's interests. When you change that reflection, then it's much easier to get to know people and enjoy them. As I said, my go-to was to do some work and find other people who are doing work and just help them. Carrying the load together is always a good way of lifting yourself up as well. When I started teaching full-time, I spent probably the first several years pretending to be someone who is comfortable in front of a classroom. I don't know that I was, but I could pretend to be someone who was. I think going to Scotland, now that the challenge is there, it's exciting and terrifying by turns, but I'm so curious. I always want to know what happens when you do this or what happens when I do this. Pulling into that curiosity is a life raft. Sharon: Do you have a history with the country? Did your family come from there? Did you visit it a few times? Kristin: No, I had never been to Scotland before I interviewed, but my family has lived in Appalachia for about 400 years. Sharon: Where? Kristin: Appalachia. Sharon: Oh, 400 years, wow! Kristin: Yes, so they have been there for a very long time. Many people from that area came from Scotland, England, Wales, Ireland, so Scottish history was something we grew up with because of this strong connection to Scottland and Ireland. The music that was local to where I grew up came straight from Scottland. The local dances, the crafts in particular. Things that had been brought 400 years earlier were still practiced, and a lot of those skills came from Scottland. Sharon: Do you lie in bed at night, or are you grocery shopping and an idea comes to you and you start on it? Kristin: For my studio practice? Sharon: Yeah. Kristin: There are probably two tracks to that. One is that it's all a long inquiry that never stops. It‘s one little thing that leads to the next. It doesn't have a beginning or an end. It's kind of all in the middle and ideas roll in one direction or another. Pieces may not finish, but I'm committed to finishing bodies of work. I'm really terrible about it, actually. In terms of solutions—I think maybe what you're asking about is solutions to particular problems—those are things that revolve as well. Sometimes I'll see something, or I'll be making something that doesn't make sense in the moment, but I'll just hold onto it. It's like I'm looking for an answer to a problem. It's like, “Oh, there it is in this book or in this drawer of samples I made.” If I waited for ideas to come to me, I'd be waiting a really long time. I have to go out and hunt for them. They're constantly generating, but the solutions to problems plug in at different locations on a very long timeline. Sharon: For instance, on some of the projects, whether you're invited or you decide to enter a competitive situation, once that's done, do you say, “O.K., that's nice. That's done. Now, I'm on to the next thing,” or is it done? Kristin: These pieces often cycle in and out. Unless a piece is purchased, they all belong to this collection of pieces that are shown in different iterations. For group exhibitions, there may be between two and four pieces that are shown together, but for solo exhibitions, there's a larger body of work. Every time I show that body of work, it may have different pieces in that collection that are shown. Sharon: What happened to the gloves that are made of Tyvek? How did you come up with the idea of Tyvek? Kristin: Oh, I love Tyvek. It is such a fun material. Certain materials just didn't appeal to me, and I have all of these Tyvek mailers. I would get things in the mail, and they come in those Tyvek mailers. I saved all these mailers for years and thought, “I'm going to do something with them.” Then I realized you could just buy it. I had kept it because it has this beautiful, papery, silky quality to it which is really nice. It's virtually indestructible until it's not, so it has this strength but this vulnerability as well. I like that about it. From time to time, I have made gloves over the years because I think they're interesting objects. There's such a strong relationship to the body and what we do with our hands. Those gloves in particular were designed with this young woman in mind who had this scarf. I already said I love opera, so having these opera-length gloves, I used a vintage pattern for that. I had her scarf embroidered on these very delicate but strong gloves that were kind of ethereal. That was perfect for my purpose. Sharon: That's interesting. I saw the pictures, but I wasn't sure what it was. That's very interesting. Thank you very much for being with us today. Good luck in Scotland. We'll be reading about you. Kristin: Thank you so much, Sharon. This was so fun. Sharon: We will have photos posted on the website. Please head to TheJewelryJourney.com to check them out. Thank you again for listening. Please leave us a rating and review so we can help others start their own jewelry journey.

Drinking Boys and Girls Choir - "City" from the 2023 album Hey, Listen To Me on Damnably The latest release from South Korean trio Drinking Boys and Girls Choir is a collaborative project with three female artists from their hometown of Daegu. (On this EP, they've also invited special guest Jang Young-eun, guitarist and vocalist of the band igloo.) On today's Song of the Day, they've teamed up with artist Kim Seoul, known for her humorous work in printmaking with hand-colored details. As they write on their Bandcamp, the song was inspired by a conversation with drummer/vocalist Myeongjin Kim and Kim Seoul "about the loneliness and fear that metropolitan cities can give to individuals living in them, especially those cities that feel bigger for women living alone. Inspired by the conversation, the image of the song itself is about comforting yourself, after having experienced those feelings, and comforting fellow citizens who are still in such a situation." For the accompanying exhibition, Kim Seoul crafted a space that looks like her old living room. "The memories of living in a gap between clothes and objects in a small room are reproduced in this work. Through installations made with eco-friendly materials such as Tyvek, and silkscreen engraving techniques, the artist created a space filled with small but precious things which allowed for small citizens in large cities and exhibition visitors to search for other entries."

New court documents released this week reveal that a bone fragment was found when forensic investigators took apart a hacksaw found in a dumpster near Brian Walshe's mother's home. Police also found Ana's COVID-19 vaccination card, her Volkswagen keys, clothing and jewelry. Surveillance footage also reveals that Brian Walshe bought cleaning supplies around the time of his wife's disappearance. The images show Walshe wearing a face mask and pushing a shopping cart in a Home Depot. He purchased several things, including mops, brushes, tarps, Scotch Heavy duty tape, a Tyvek suit coverall, two splash-resistant goggles, and more. When the Walshe home was searched, many of those items were found. Walshe was also spotted at a Lowe's. That is where he allegedly bought $450 worth of tools, including a hacksaw that contained the bone fragment.
