Hablamos con Fermín Cadierno, Alcalde-pedáneo de Torneros de Jamuz, pedanía que pertenece a Quintana y Congosto en León para hablar sobre la suspensión de sus fiestas anuales para donar todo el dinero ahorrado a la extinción de los incendios de la zona. En Noblejas, Toledo hace falta un instituto. Tras varios años este problema sigue sin tener una solución, como última solución el teniente de alcalde de Noblejas, Ángel Luengo, comienza una huelga de hambre en protesta por la ausencia de centro educativo.Álvaro García-Dotor nos trae un reportaje sobre los carteles que está proporcionando el colectivo Artistas por Palestina a aquellos comercios que quisieran unirse a la causa y mostrarse en contra del conflicto poniendo el cartel en sus escaparates. Hablamos con Elena Páez, propietaria de 'PLANTHAE', tienda que ha puesto el cartel en su puerta. La experta en violencia de género, Marina Marroquí vuelve otro lunes más para seguir profundizando en la forma correcta en la que se tiene que hablar a los adolescentes. Que los juegos de mesa han ganado popularidad desde hace años no es nada nuevo.  Están reviviendo y ahora se están uniendo a nuestra rutina diaria. Los podemos encontrar en un viaje en tren, en una reunión con nuestra familia o en locales donde puedes tomar algo y jugar con tus amigos. Nos lo cuenta Alexandra Furnea, de Código de Barras. El 17 de agosto de 1982, se imprimió oficialmente el primer CD musical, iniciando una revolución que aún sigue viva. Se trata del álbum The Visitors del grupo Abba, manufacturado en Alemania por Polygram Records, una empresa subsidiaria de Royal Philips Electronics.

What if the fabric of our world isn't a sealed container, but a fragile web—pocked with rips, folds, and doorways into somewhere… else? Across the globe, witnesses have described stepping into spaces where the air thickens, time bends, and impossible entities appear without warning. These moments, fleeting yet unforgettable, hint at the existence of portals—dimensional gateways linking our reality to hidden realms.In this episode of Phantoms & Monsters Radio, we'll delve into chilling, first-hand encounters that challenge the boundaries of belief: a California farm stalked by a colossal biped, a Montana experiencer targeted by robotic and extra-dimensional visitors, a Wisconsin home where robed figures rose from a glowing floor, a San Jose cemetery visit interrupted by a diving bat-like humanoid, and a Texas rally where a woman vanished from a locked porta-potty without a trace. Each account forces us to confront the possibility that our perception of reality is incomplete.These reports come from diverse times and places—orchards, cemeteries, forest trails, quiet homes—but share unsettling similarities: sudden appearances and vanishings, bilocation, objects re-materializing from nowhere, and encounters with entities that defy classification. Are these random anomalies, or the signs of persistent and intentional portals? Could they be natural phenomena, hidden technologies, or constructs of an interdimensional intelligence?From subtle shifts in time to face-to-face meetings with beings that seem part human, part machine, tonight we follow the trails left by witnesses who have stumbled too close to the edges of our dimension. As we look over these extraordinary accounts, we'd like to ask you to consider a question: if portals exist all around us, what might be waiting on the other side?

After a local family's encounter with a football-shaped craft emitting pulsating lights, the sheriff's office received 50 more reports of similar sightings. Despite skepticism and even vandalism targeting the witnesses, the community's unwavering response led to an official investigation by Project Blue Book.

If your homepage is cluttered, confusing, or unclear, chances are your visitors aren't sticking around. And in today's digital-first world, that could be costing you more than you think. This is an episode where I take part in a Super Learning Session with Page Two, a publishing company. We covered everything authors and experts need to know about building a website that feels clear, compelling, and conversion-ready. Clean, Cohesive Design That Keeps People On Your Site If your website feels cluttered or chaotic, visitors won't stick around. In this session, you'll learn how to use white space, color, and font pairings to create a sense of clarity and calm. We talk about why less is more when it comes to design and how to make sure every visual element on your site works for you, not against you.  Because when your design is clean and intentional, people feel confident exploring what you have to offer. Content That Speaks Directly to Your Reader Your website shouldn't start with a paragraph about you. It should start with a reason for your visitor to keep reading. I share how to write homepage content that's focused on your audience, not just your accolades. You'll learn how to highlight what makes your work different, guide visitors toward a single clear action, and turn casual browsers into book buyers, email subscribers, or future clients. Enjoy this episode… Soundbytes 03:05 - 05:20 “So if you think of walking into an art museum or going into a botanical garden or going into a restaurant that's very nicely designed, we have visceral reactions to the spaces we're in. And websites also create visceral reactions for people.” 03:52 - 04:04 “I wouldn't use more than three different fonts on a website, so you might have one for headings, one for the actual text, and then maybe a different font for call to actions.” Quotes “Great design is in the details.” “Clean design can just exude a very calm emotion in somebody that's looking at your website and make them want to stay on there.“ “Just put the minimum of what you want on a web page.

On this episode, Tony Brueski digs into one of the most haunted places in the United States: Eastern State Penitentiary. Once home to notorious criminals like Al Capone, this Philadelphia prison has seen its share of violence, suffering, and death. But is it also home to something far darker? Visitors, staff, and paranormal investigators alike have reported strange sightings, eerie sounds, and unsettling sensations that can't be easily explained. Tony delves into the chilling history of the penitentiary, exploring the early days of its construction, the notorious figures who walked its halls, and the inexplicable events that have earned it a place in ghost-hunting lore. From shadowy figures to the eerie coldness of the dungeons, he examines whether Eastern State's spirits are trapped in its walls—or if the past is still alive, haunting the present.

Send us a textNote: Audio Version Only, Please See YouTube for Video.Ever stumbled upon a natural wonder that feels like a well-kept secret? That's exactly what awaits at Spence Hot Springs, tucked away in New Mexico's breathtaking Jemez Mountains.Nestled within the Santa Fe National Forest just outside Jemez Springs, these thermal pools offer a perfect blend of accessibility and natural beauty. After a quick 0.4-mile hike across the Jemez River, you'll discover a series of warm, soothing pools cascading down the mountainside. The main upper pool accommodates about a dozen people, while smaller pools below create a natural multi-tiered spa experience. Perhaps most intriguing is the small cave adjacent to the main pool – a natural sauna where the warm water makes a perfect retreat from the mountain air.My midweek visit revealed the stark advantage of weekday exploration. With the place nearly to myself, I could fully appreciate the tranquil sounds of flowing water and the pristine mountain surroundings without distraction. The water temperature feels like a comfortable, warm bath, perfect for soaking tired muscles while taking in panoramic views of the national forest. While not scalding hot, the springs provide a gentler thermal experience that many find more enjoyable than intensely hot springs elsewhere.Visitors should note the limited parking (approximately eight spaces), potential weekend crowds, and the importance of responsible stewardship. Remember not to ingest the spring water, pack out all trash, and respect clothing requirements due to the springs' proximity to public areas. These simple courtesies help preserve this natural treasure for future explorers.Have you experienced New Mexico's hot springs?

In this episode of Grow a Small Business, host Troy Trewin interviews Suzanna Chaplin, founder of ESB Connect, shares her incredible journey from starting an email marketing business with her father to building a powerhouse with over 17 million email addresses and £1.5M in revenue. She opens up about overcoming £250K in debt, navigating the emotional toll of a family business, and pioneering the UK's first email retargeting tech that matches anonymous site visitors with emails. Suzanna also dives into scaling with profitability, building a resilient team, and why owning your audience is more critical than ever. Her story is packed with real challenges, bold moves, and powerful insights for any business owner chasing sustainable growth. Why would you wait any longer to start living the lifestyle you signed up for? Balance your health, wealth, relationships and business growth. And focus your time and energy and make the most of this year. Let's get into it by clicking here. Troy delves into our guest's startup journey, their perception of success, industry reconsideration, and the pivotal stress point during business expansion. They discuss the joys of small business growth, vital entrepreneurial habits, and strategies for team building, encompassing wins, blunders, and invaluable advice. And a snapshot of the final five Grow A Small Business Questions: What do you think is the hardest thing in growing a small business? According to Suzanna Chaplin, the hardest thing in growing a small business is navigating the emotional rollercoaster—the constant ups and downs. One day everything feels great with strong sales and a happy team, and the next day, key clients might pull budgets or team members might resign. It's the ability to stay consistent, keep showing up every day, and push through the tough times that truly tests a business owner's resilience. What's your favorite business book that has helped you the most? Suzanna Chaplin's favorite business books that have helped her the most include “Winners” by Alastair Campbell for its insight into what makes successful people tick, and “The 7 Habits of Highly Effective People” by Stephen Covey, which she values for its lessons on communication and understanding people's core motivations. She also mentioned “Good to Great” by Jim Collins and books by Adam Grant as powerful resources that have shaped her business thinking. Are there any great podcasts or online learning resources you'd recommend to help grow a small business? Suzanna Chaplin recommends several powerful podcasts and online resources to help grow a small business, including How I Built This by Guy Raz for inspiring founder stories, Diary of a CEO for raw and insightful conversations (especially earlier episodes), and Sweat Equity by the founders of Hype for practical branding tips. She also suggests Founders for deep dives into entrepreneurial mindsets and The Spark by Emma Grede for valuable perspectives from a female founder's lens. Suzanna emphasizes that podcasts, books, and mentorship have been key to her learning, offering real-world solutions to everyday business challenges. What tool or resource would you recommend to grow a small business? Suzanna Chaplin recommends Xero as a must-have tool to grow a small business, emphasizing the importance of knowing your numbers and staying on top of cash flow. While it may seem basic, having clear visibility into your finances is crucial for making smart decisions. She also highlights the value of implementing a solid CRM system as the business scales, helping manage team workflows, forecasting, and client communication more efficiently. These tools, she says, are essential for building a strong operational foundation. What advice would you give yourself on day one of starting out in business? Suzanna Chaplin's advice to herself on day one of starting out in business would be: “It's going to be okay—keep going and stay consistent.” She emphasizes the importance of trusting the journey, making quicker decisions when needed (especially around hiring), and not holding onto people or situations that no longer serve the business. She'd also remind herself to stay organized, believe in her instincts, and understand that the hard days will pass—and every small step forward adds up to big progress.

Tourism in Vegas is down 15%, international travel is down 14%, and yes, price gouging in casinos plays a role. But the bigger picture? The entire U.S. economy is crumbling under the weight of inflation, rising tariffs, and policies that push people out instead of welcoming them in. And Trump? His legacy still haunts international tourism. Visitors don't want to deal with ICE, insane costs, or political chaos. Vegas is the canary in the economic coal mine, and the signs are flashing red.

This is a Grave Talks CLASSIC EPISODE! Jails and penitentiaries are often magnets for paranormal energy—and the Old Idaho Penitentiary is no exception. Built in 1870, before Idaho even became a state, the prison operated for over a century, witnessing everything from brutal riots and daring escapes to chilling executions. Among the most infamous inmates was Raymond Snowden—nicknamed “Idaho's Jack the Ripper”—who was executed for a gruesome murder and is believed by many to still haunt the prison grounds. Visitors and staff alike have reported unsettling experiences: disembodied voices, phantom touches, and an overwhelming sense of being watched. In this episode of The Grave Talks, Visitor Services Coordinator Jacey Brain joins us to share the dark history and persistent hauntings of this historic prison. What lingers behind these stone walls—and why won't it let go?  This is Part Two of our conversation. For more information on historical tours and paranormal events, visit history.idaho.gov.

Beneath the glittering facade of New Orleans high society in the early 1800s, Madame Delphine LaLaurie's lavish mansion concealed one of the most gruesome crimes in American history. Behind locked attic doors, enslaved men and women were chained, mutilated, starved, and grotesquely experimented on for Madame LaLaurie's sadistic pleasure. Some victims had their bones reset to take on non-human form, others were flayed, disemboweled, or fitted with crude surgical contraptions. This wasn't punishment: this was depravity wrapped in silk and perfumed with civility, masquerading as refinement while it feasted on human suffering. To this day, locals say the mansion is cursed. Visitors report cold spots, disembodied cries, and the faint clatter of chains dragging across the floorboards - echoes of suffering too violent to stay buried… Patreon: www.patreon.com/psychopediapod Instagram + TikTok: @investigatorslater @psychopediapod Heart Starts Pounding can be found here: @heartstartspounding www.heartstartspounding.com To learn more about listener data and our privacy practices visit: https://www.audacyinc.com/privacy-policy Learn more about your ad choices.

Why Trump's Homelessness Move Matters More Than You Think. Breaking Down Democratic Party Struggles (with Dan Turrentine)

Trump signed an executive order last week that could fundamentally reframe the way the federal government deals with homelessness. Titled “Ending Crime and Disorder on America's Streets,” the order pivots away from housing-first strategies and toward public safety and mandatory treatment. That includes prioritizing funding for states and cities that ban urban camping, loitering, and open drug use, and it supports civil commitment — involuntary hospitalization for those with severe mental illness or addiction. Harm reduction programs are effectively defunded under this order, and treatment becomes a prerequisite for federal help.This didn't get a lot of attention in the media. That's a mistake. Homelessness is one of the most visible problems in American cities, and it's not going away. I've lived in Oakland, San Francisco, and Austin — three cities that have all struggled mightily with this issue. San Francisco in particular is the worst I've seen. It's not hyperbole to say that its homelessness crisis overshadows the city's stunning architecture and rich culture. Visitors walk away talking about tents, not the Golden Gate Bridge.Politics Politics Politics is a reader-supported publication. To receive new posts and support my work, consider becoming a free or paid subscriber.This isn't a lecture about policy. I don't think there's an easy solution. From everything I've read and seen, roughly half of people living on the streets are there because of financial collapse — bad luck, bad decisions, and no safety net. The other half, though, don't want to reenter society. Some of them are dangerous, many are mentally ill, and addiction is everywhere. That's especially true in places like the Bay Area, where cheap or even free drugs are plentiful, and the spiral from one substance to the next ends in death more often than we acknowledge.Even in liberal cities, the political lines are shifting. When I moved to Austin in 2021, the city had rescinded its ban on urban camping. The results were immediate: tents on sidewalks, more street homelessness, and public parks taken over. A citywide referendum eventually reinstated the ban — not because Austin became more conservative, but because people across the political spectrum wanted cleaner streets. They didn't necessarily care how it happened. That's the political space Trump's executive order moves into.It's controversial, yes. And there are real concerns about forcing treatment and stripping funding from programs that do help some people. But the public mood is changing. People are frustrated. They want their cities back, and they're running out of patience for ideological purity tests. Trump, love him or hate him, is filling a leadership vacuum here. I don't know if his order will work — or if it'll be implemented at all in places that oppose him. But I do think it's a sign that this issue is far from settled, and it's about to get a lot more attention.Chapters00:00:00 - Intro00:03:09 - Trump's Homelessness Plan00:14:56 - Update00:15:18 - EPA Rollbacks00:20:09 - North Carolina00:23:12 - Epstein00:26:58 - Interview with Dan Turrentine00:59:56 - Wrap-up This is a public episode.

This is a Grave Talks CLASSIC EPISODE! In the small town of Vinton, Iowa, you'll find the Horridge House, a two-story, red brick home built in 1859 by Dr. Hewitt Clingan. It was sold to George and Elizabeth Horridge a decade later, who left their mark on this storied residence. Visitors to the Horridge House today will be transported back in time with its period furnishings, clothing displays, and numerous artifacts. But there's more to this house than meets the eye. Now housing the Benton County Historical Society's Archives & Museum, the Horridge House is a repository of historical knowledge and artifacts and a potential hotspot for ghostly activity. The house is filled with peculiar and unexplainable occurrences, from shadowy figures to strange noises and suspicious footsteps. Many believe these hauntings are linked to the historical artifacts stored within its walls. Could it also be that the spirits of Mr. Horridge, along with both his first AND second wives, still reside in the home? Today on the Grave Talks, what is haunting the Horridge House? A conversation with Katie Hopkins, Benton County Historical  Society Vice President and Paranormal Tour Manager.
