    Green Berets are America's best problem solvers. There's no challenge too great and no solution that cannot be found. This mentality exists in service and beyond. Ben Harrow solved complex challenges as a West Point Lacrosse star, leading soldiers in Iraq, and as he joined Special Forces to be a Green Beret in the Army. Today he's the President of PAM Jets solving aviation's largest logistical problems. But the biggest challenge Ben ever faced was when he stepped on a land mine. Ben is a double amputee who nearly lost his life in Afghanistan. From the sidelines of the 2024 Stars and Stripes Classic, the first ever lacrosse battle between Green Berets and Navy SEALs, Ben joined Fran Racioppi to share his story. After months of surgery and being told he would never walk again, he took his recovery into his own hands. Ben explains the meticulous research he conducted, the doctors he challenged and the method he developed to ensure he would walk and move on with life. He explains his resiliency mindset, how he applied it to becoming a Green Beret, solving his recovery challenge and how it drives him in entrepreneurship today.Most importantly, Ben shows us that there's nothing special about being Special Forces, you just have to want it more than anyone else.

    Alan Kinder was waiting to be drafted into the military during World War II, but when he arrived at the Army recruiter, he was told his eyesight was too poor. The next time he tried to join, his eyesight wasn't any better. This time, the Army took him anyway.Kinder was trained in sound ranging as part of the 14th Field Artillery Observation Battalion. His job was to determine how far away the enemies were and what vehicles they might have with them. The battalion landed at Utah Beach just a few weeks after D-Day. Months later it would be part of the Battle of Nancy, in eastern France, and the Battle of the Bulge.In this edition of Veterans Chronicles, Kinder explains how sound ranging worked and how his unit helped to chase the Nazis from Normandy to the eastern edge of France. He will take us inside their work at the Battle of Nancy, almost being killed near the Battle of the Bulge, and his memory of the cost of war from the Bulge that he's only been able to talk about in recent years.Kinder will also share his memories of crossing the Rhine and the final weeks of the war before the German surrender.

    Leslie is joined by Jim Savage, Legislative Representative for the United Steelworkers (USW). The two discuss how the U.S. Dept. of Veterans' Affairs has been understaffed and underfunded for decades, often proving to be a barrier to those who served getting the care they need. However, rather than bolstering this vital lifeline, early on in the Trump administration, amid brutal cuts to a number of federal agencies, it announced that it would eliminate approximately 83,000 positions at the VA. While this was part of a larger effort to gut the federal government in the name of efficiency, as in other areas, there was nothing targeted or strategic about these cuts. Jim explains how the USW and their "Veterans of Steel" group is not only fighting these cuts, but working across the political aisle to promote common sense legislation to further help U.S. military veterans.

    This week on Urban Valor, we sat down with Marine veteran Ernesto Menjivar. A man who watched his brother lose both legs to an IED right in front of him. Ernesto was 19 years old when he first hit the ground in Afghanistan, assigned to one of the most IED-infested regions in Helmand Province. The firefights came fast. The first one he was ever in, RPGs were flying over his head, and the next minute they were sweeping for pressure plates in the dirt, praying one of them wouldn't go off.But then it did.His brother, Langston White, stepped on an IED while on patrol, and Ernesto was just feet away. The way he describes that moment — the sound, the dust, the blood, the moment they locked eyes — it'll sit with you. Langston survived but lost both legs. And that was just one chapter of what became a brutal deployment. Ernesto talks about the emotional toll of trying to stay mission-ready after something like that, the Marines he lost during Operation Deuces Wild, and how that experience changed him forever.Now years removed from combat, he opens up about the PTSD, the dreams, the random moments where he sees civilians missing limbs and flashes back to war. But he also shares what's helped him — therapy, music, painting, his faith — and how he's still working through it. This isn't a sanitized version of war. It's the real cost. The kind of story that shows what combat veterans carry with them long after the fighting stops.

The conversation covers efforts to accelerate claims, cut wait-times, and create seamless hand-offs from DoD service to VA care for the nine million veterans currently enrolled. Collins also shares initiatives in suicide prevention including the 988 Veterans Crisis Line, expanded Vet Centers, and partnerships with faith-based organizations, along with community-care upgrades, stronger accountability for under-performers, and clinical trials of psychedelic and stem-cell therapies to treat PTSD and chronic pain.

    Frm Congressman, Author of the ADAHappy ADA 35Tony Coelho has spent his entire adult life helping advance the lives of people with disabilities. He calls this his “ministry”. Congressman Steny Hoyer, former House Majority Leader, says that the disability community call him their “voice” and “champion.”Diagnosed with epilepsy when he was 22 years old, Tony's ministry is marked by significant milestones: primary author and sponsor of the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) — the most important piece of civil rights legislation in the last 40 years; advocating for the ratification of the U.N. Convention on the Rights of Persons with Disabilities; and convincing President Bill Clinton to establish the Office of Disability Employment Policy at the U.S. Department of Labor.  Tony continued to advocate for civil rights for individuals with disabilities by convincing President Barack Obama to issue an executive order enforcing Section 503 of the Rehabilitation Act of 1973 requiring federal contractors and subcontractors to hire people with disabilities as they have been doing since 1973 for women and minorities.  He went on to work with the Biden White House to improve access to the internet for individuals who are blind, deaf, and physically impaired.Tony is a former six-term United States Congressman from California, elected in 1978 and serving until 1989. He served on the Agriculture, Interior, Veterans Affairs, and Administration Committees during his tenure, specializing in disability rights. In 1986, Tony was elected House Majority Whip, the third most powerful position in the House of Representatives.After leaving Congress, Tony joined Wertheim Schroder & Company, Inc., an investment-banking firm in New York, where he served as a Managing Director and then as President and CEO of Wertheim Schroder Investment Services, a firm that he grew from $400 million to $4 billion in managed investments. He formed ETC w/TCI, an education and training technology company in Washington, D.C., where he served as Chairman and Chief Executive Officer.

    http://www.attractionchecklist.com - We've drug our feet long enough.  It's time to go see the Country Bear Musical Jamboree at Walt Disney World's Magic Kingdom on this episode of Attraction Checklist.  Attraction audio recorded on May 21, 2025. TRANSCRIPT: Welcome to Attraction Checklist. This episode we visit Walt Disney World's Magic Kingdom to check out the Country Bear Jamboree's new show the Country Bear Musical Jamboree. The Walt Disney World website describes this attraction saying: Head over to Frontierland for this newly reimagined show where Henry, Trixie, Big Al and their pals are playin' some of your favorite Disney songs alongside a heapin' helpin' of Southern charm. There are no age or height requirements for this attraction and, in a possible bit of foreshadowing, there is no Thrill Level listed. Before we head to Grizzly Hall, here are five fast facts about the Country Bear Musical Jamboree. 1. In September 2023, Disney announced that the Country Bear Jamboree would be retooled into a new show called the Country Bear Musical Jamboree.  The edited original show that had been running closed on January 27, 2024.  The new version of the show opened on July 17, 2024. 2. As part of the redesign for the new show, the lobby area of grizzly hall has been festooned with display cases filled with treasures from the history of the Country Bear Jamboree.  This includes trophies of awards won by the bears, vintage costume pieces and original paw-written lyrics for songs. 3. Veteran singer, songwriter Mac McAnally was tasked with creating country versions of popular Disney songs for the show.  He also provides the voice of Terrance the Shaker in the show as well. 4. The Voice competitor Emily Ann Roberts provides the voice of Trixie and Allison Russell and Chris Thile provide voices for Teddi Barra and Wendell respectively. 5. As part of the revamp, one bear got a name change.  Liver Lips McGrowl is now Romeo McGrowl.  Romeo is now voiced by Robert “Big Sandy” Williams. With much trepidation, it's now time to visit the Country Bear Musical Jamboree.  John B. deHaas is along for the journey and after the show we'll give you our thoughts on this attraction.  This is a binaural recording so if you have headphone, put them on now as we visit the Country Bear Musical Jamboree at Magic Kingdom.

With nearly five decades in early childhood education and 35 years in leadership, Regina shares fantastic insight into what it really takes to lead a team, stay connected as an owner, and build lasting impact in your center.   Regina shares some great takeaways from her new book Leadership Lessons, including how to hire smarter, mentor without ego, and avoid becoming an absentee owner. Kris and Regina also talk about how to stay engaged, inspire your staff, and create a culture that works, starting at the top.   Key Takeaways: [5:05] Some exciting new info about the Summit!                                                                                           [7:06] Regina brings more than 47 years of experience in early childhood and 35 years in leadership, with a clear focus on mentorship, literacy, and building long-term community impact. [8:58] After losing her daughter in 2022, Regina downsized her center to honor her daughter's dream and now focuses on a smaller, literacy-driven program model. [11:46] She has no plans to retire and emphasizes purpose-driven longevity in leadership, reinforced by consistent self-care and boundaries. [14:13] The beauty of an early wake-up time. [17:02] Her newest book, Leadership Lessons, was years in the making and centers on transparency, personal growth, and lessons from mistakes made as a leader. [20:34] Regina encourages leaders to stop being intimidated by talented hires. She views strong team members as a resource to grow the organization, not as a threat. [23:18] New directors often assume the title alone is enough. Regina challenges them to build systems, listen to input, and avoid siloed decision-making. [25:59] Veteran leaders can become disconnected. She emphasizes the importance of owners remaining present and actively involved in culture-building. [30:18] Regina is deeply involved in policy advocacy and stresses the need for early educators to be consistently vocal with legislators, not just during funding crises.

[45:04] Her upcoming literacy program not only supports child development but also functions as an enrollment strategy by drawing families back into the center.   Quotes: “I believe that all of us have a part. So there's no better school, bigger school, best school. There's all of us, and then there are all of these children that need us.” — Regina [8:43]   “Hire someone smarter than you.” — Regina [22:08]   “As a new leader, be willing to listen.” — Regina [24:14]   “Leaders cannot ask of their people what they're not willing to do themselves.

    Did you know that people who have received a kidney transplant are at a much higher risk for skin cancer? We sat down with experts to discuss how you can lower your risk. In this episode we heard from: Dr. Cerrene Giordano is a dermatologist and Mohs Micrographic surgeon at Roswell Park Comprehensive Cancer Center in Buffalo, New York. She specializes in treating skin cancers, particularly in patients who are high risk such as those who have received organ transplants, have weakened immune systems, or a genetic predisposition to skin cancer development. Her expertise includes skin cancer surgery, wound reconstruction, and the management of skin cancers such as melanoma, basal cell carcinoma, and squamous cell carcinoma, to name a few. Dr. Giordano is also involved in research aimed at improving pain management following dermatologic surgeries and exploring advanced imaging techniques to enhance surgical outcomes. Kent Bressler is a retired RN who was diagnosed with FSGS in 1984, and received a living donor transplant from his brother Kip in 1987. Kent is an active advocate for preemptive kidney transplant and has on the recommendation of NKF worked closely with the DoD and PCORI as a consumer peer reviewer. He is an NKF peer mentor and advocate who has collaborated on an editorial “Change in Albuminuria and GFR as End Points for Clinical Trials in Early Stages of Chronic Kidney Disease,” published in AJKD in 2019. He will also be participating in the development of the new NKF Patient Network serving on the Data Input and Integration Committee. He has been an active hill advocate for the NKF for six years and was the proud recipient of the 2017 Richard K. Salick Advocacy Award. Kent is also an Army Veteran and retired from the Veterans administration as an RN. He is the co-founder of Kidney Solutions a not for profit program in Texas that assists patients and families in the transplant process and in finding a donor. He is currently an assistant team leader for Region 7. Kent and Cathy Bressler have been married for 56 years and their family consists of Gretchen and Todd Rossington and their son Colt and Celeste and Alex Brown and their children John Banks, Catherine and Alexis Brown. Risa Simon is a passionate author, speaker, mentor, kidney patient coach and advocate. As the founder and CEO of The Proactive Path and the TransplantFirst Academy, her mission is to help all kidney disease patients advocate for their best life possible—the life she now lives. As a preemptive kidney transplant recipient, Risa was able to circumvent the need for dialysis. This is her hope for all eligible kidney patients. Risa gives back a good portion of her time by serving on various advisory committees, such as the National Kidney Foundation's (NKF's) Kidney Action committee, the American Association of Kidney Patients (AAKP) program and convention committees and she chairs the Phoenix Chapter's Polycystic Kidney Disease (PKD) education committee.  She is also a member of the PKD Legacy Society and serves as a Peer Mentor for the National Kidney Foundation (NKF). Risa's message is all about empowering kidney patients to bring their voice to life.    Additional Resources: Dr. Cerrene Giordano Protect the Skin You're In Do you have comments, questions, or suggestions?

Should Ken Walker be in this tier? Then we get to Tier 5 (29:10) which is where Jamey starts to get nervous about the position with guys like Alvin Kamara and James Conner among others. Meanwhile, Tier 6 (35:15) is an interesting mix of veteran RBs and rookie RBs ... Tiers 7 and 8 (44:55) once again highlight the stability of the veterans vs. the excitement of the rookies.

    Retired FBI agent and criminal profiler Candice DeLong sits down with bestselling author Michael Connelly and veteran LAPD detective Mitzi Roberts to discuss Ballard, the new Prime Video series expanding Connelly's gritty “Harry Bosch” universe. The show's lead, Renee Ballard, is inspired by Mitzi's real-life work tracking down killers – like the infamous Samuel Little – and shaped by her decades-long career on the force. Candice explores how Mitzi's pursuit of justice and Connelly's storied career as an author merged to bring Ballard to life, and how truth and fiction can collide to tell gripping stories on the screen.Be the first to know about Wondery's newest podcasts, curated recommendations, and more!
