Season 4, Episode 21Sandi Kern is the founder of Desire to Be Well Juicery, and an integrative health practitioner whose story starts in the suburbs of Maryland, winds through years of chronic inflammation, and lands in a barn-turned-juice-bar in Washington County, Pennsylvania.When I first met Sandi, I was struck by her energy. She's warm, funny, a little sassy, and full of passion—not just for wellness, but for making wellness fun. Her journey to healing wasn't easy. It took years of being dismissed by doctors before one finally said, “This is food-triggered inflammation. Let's start there.” And that simple act of listening changed everything.Suddenly, food wasn't the enemy—it became the way back to herself. Sandi rebuilt her diet from the ground up. She experimented, got creative, and somewhere between coconut cashew Alfredo sauce and dancing barefoot in the kitchen with her husband Fred, she found not just health, but joy.Now she's created something really special—a place where people with dietary restrictions don't have to ask a million questions or explain themselves. They can just eat. And not just eat—but savor, celebrate, and maybe even dance a little.This episode is about healing, love, and kitchen alchemy. It's about trusting your body, reinventing your plate, and remembering that sometimes, joy really is the best ingredient.

A peaceful family hike turned into a nightmare at Devil's Den State Park—and tonight, we bring you exclusive eyewitness reporting that could help identify the killer. On July 26, 2025, Clinton and Cristen Brink—ages 43 and 41—were brutally murdered while hiking with their two young daughters, just 7 and 9 years old. The girls witnessed the horrific attack and are now safe with relatives. Arkansas State Police immediately launched a double homicide investigation and are now hunting for a suspect described as a white male in his 20s, seen fleeing the area in a black four-door sedan (possibly a Mazda) with a taped-over license plate. The attack took place around 2:40 PM on a popular trail at Devil's Den State Park in Washington County. But there's a new development—and it's coming straight from us at True Crime Today. Roughly an hour before the murders, another couple hiking the same trail had a chilling encounter with a man matching the suspect's description. They describe him as having bright, bloodshot eyes, stubble, wearing dark clothing and fingerless gloves, and carrying an oversized, vinyl-and-mesh “sports bag” totally out of place for hiking. He stared at them with an intensity that made their skin crawl. The moment passed—but they couldn't shake it. After learning about the murders, they tried to call the sheriff's office but couldn't get through. So they came here—to tell their story. In this episode, Tony Brueski sits down for an exclusive interview with the couple who may have crossed paths with the killer just minutes before the attack. Their eyewitness account could hold the key to solving this case. If you were at Devil's Den on July 26 or recognize the description, contact Arkansas State Police Troop L at (479) 751-6663.

In this powerful episode of Hidden Killers with Tony Brueski, we sit down with a 911 dispatcher who was working the moment Clinton and Cristen Brink were murdered at Devil's Den State Park while hiking with their two young daughters. This exclusive firsthand account gives us our most intimate look yet at what unfolded inside the Washington County dispatch center as the calls for help began flooding in. The dispatcher reveals chilling details: the girls were found running and screaming, saying their mother told them to run as fast and as far as they could—only stopping when they could no longer hear her screaming. We hear what dispatchers knew in real-time, the confusion, the emotion, and the heartbreak that unfolded as a brutal, random stabbing unfolded in broad daylight on a public trail. The dispatcher also shares new details about the suspect's vehicle, including its sound, speed, and design—details collected from multiple eyewitnesses that have not yet been released publicly. From exhaust tips to taillight shape, this episode breaks down what the public should be watching for. We also learn about efforts to track the vehicle through surveillance, as well as behind-the-scenes frustrations over why more hasn't been released to the public. You'll also hear about how this tragedy affected the dispatchers personally—including this guest, who is also a parent, and has experienced devastating loss of her own. This is not just a breakdown of the crime—it's the emotional reality of the people behind the scenes fighting to bring clarity, comfort, and justice in the midst of horror. If you were at Devil's Den on July 26, 2025, and saw or heard anything, contact ASP Troop L immediately at (479) 751-6663. #DevilsDen #DoubleHomicide #911Dispatcher #ClintonBrink #CristenBrink #TrueCrime #Arkansas #HiddenKillers #TonyBrueski #DevilsDenMurder #ArkansasStatePolice #BreakingNews #TrueCrimeToday Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

Earlier this month the semiconductor chip maker Intel announced it would layoff nearly 2,400 workers in Washington County - amounting to about 10% of its overall workforce. Nonetheless, the company remains one of Oregon’s largest private employers, and the ripple effects of its contraction will be felt more broadly throughout the state economy. OPB business reporter Kyra Buckley has been following this story, and she joins us to bring us the latest.
Washington County is revising how it implements diversity, equity, and inclusion policies in order to comply with new federal grant requirements tied to executive orders from President Trump. Local officials say the move is necessary to protect access to $135 million in federal funding that supports housing, infrastructure, and critical services for thousands of low-income residents in the county. While the move has drawn criticism from community members who worry it signals a retreat from equity commitments, those involved say the change is necessary to avoid potential civil and criminal liability under the federal False Claims Act. The county commission is scheduled to take a final vote to affirm the policy changes Tuesday, July 22. Washington County Board Chair Kathryn Harrington joins us to talk more about the changes that come amid broader questions about how local governments navigate new federal policies.
Rob talks with Tom Koch about his life and career, and discusses some key issues at the State House in Montpelier.Then Leslie Hiner joins to talk about the importance of School Choice in improving outcomes for students.
Join Dave Roberts and Ken Pullin for Episode 379 of Let Me Tell You Why You Wrong, where they blend backyard reality with political insider drama. They open with life in Pike County under blistering summer skies—Ken's just marked his 22nd wedding anniversary while juggling his daughter's Georgia Tech orientation (an $85 registration fee!) and the sticker shock of a $700 parking pass (Uber to the rescue, maybe). From there they steer into Atlanta's frenzy—$400-plus tickets to the MLB All-Star Game, Beyoncé's surprise country-music stop, and a preview of Whiskey Myers in Macon—before diving headlong into Georgia's next big showdown. Lieutenant Governor Burt Jones finally threw his hat into the governor's ring after the filing deadline, self-funding a $10 million launch video that features a surprise walk-on by Donald Trump and fond memories of his days kicking around the Bulldog football field. Dave and Ken unpack Jones's platform—abolishing the state income tax, fighting fentanyl, barring trans girls from girls' sports, and ending movie-industry tax credits—and compare it to Attorney General Chris Carr's $3.5 million war chest, the ever-teasing Marjorie Taylor Greene, and other potential contenders like Brad Raffensperger and Mike Collins. No Georgia episode would be complete without scandal, and this week the Frost family of Newnan steals the spotlight. Once major Republican donors, Brandt Frost 4 and his son Brandt Frost 5 now face an SEC civil suit accusing them of fleecing roughly 300 investors out of $140 million through their “Patriot Funds/Dollars” program, promising implausible 12–18% returns on risky loans while allegedly funneling $19 million into their own pockets (including a $320 000 rental home) and dumping $570 000 into political contributions. They round out the show with a look at federal policy and public-health alarms: DHS's sudden end to the 19-year shoe-removal rule, Pam Bondi's flip-flop on the Epstein “no list,” an “activist judge” stay blocking Planned Parenthood defunding, and the routine—but controversial—purge of 478 000 Georgia voter-registration records. On the home front, one in three U.S. teens now carries pre-diabetes, a Delta A330's engine failure led to a 30-hour layover in the Azores, and Washington County's DUI cover-up—where private hires of a certain public defender triggered wholesale dismissals—remains a cautionary tale. Unfiltered, unapologetic, and undeniably Georgia, it's another roller-coaster hour with Dave and Ken.

While rural communities face limited access to mental health resources, Washington County's new program is providing support to those facing a behavioral health crisis.
In 1988, Deborah Atrops was reported missing to police by her husband Robert. When she was found dead, police quickly honed in on her husband as the prime suspect, but without enough evidence to charge him, the case went cold. Until more than three decades later, when Washington County prosecutors declared they’d finally solved the case, and charged Robert Atrops with Deborah Atrops’ murder — thanks, in part, to DNA.Since its introduction, DNA has been considered the “gold standard” of evidence. And advances in DNA testing over the years have sometimes provided the opportunity for a second look at decades-old cases like this one. But DNA evidence isn’t always as simple as it seems on television. Sometimes what it tells us isn’t so clear.OPB legal affairs reporter Conrad Wilson and public safety and health editor Michelle Wiley have been closely following the Atrops case for months, and join us to explain.For more episodes of The Evergreen, and to share your voice with us, visit our showpage.

On this edition of Hoosier Ag This Week: Pitching Indiana as a possible home for more USDA employees was one reason why several Indiana ag leaders traveled to Washington, D.C. on Thursday to meet with U.S. Ag Secretary Brooke Rollins, as USDA considers moving many of its operations out of the nation's capital.

Send us a textThe housing market in 2025 presents a fascinating paradox—while inventory levels climb to a ten-year high in Washington County, the fundamental affordability crisis continues to reshape how Utah families approach homeownership and life planning.Emily Merkley, CEO of the Washington County Board of Realtors, shares eye-opening statistics that reveal a market in transition. With absorption rates hovering around five months of inventory, Washington County has reached what economists consider a balanced market. Yet this equilibrium brings its own challenges. The median home price sits stubbornly at $515,000 while local wages lag $16,000 below the state average, creating what Merkley describes as "extreme conditions" for affordability.Perhaps most revealing is what one tech worker confided during the discussion: "We realized we had a choice to make. We could either continue to grow our family or get into a home." This heartbreaking decision faced by many Utah families illustrates how the housing crisis transcends mere economics and shapes fundamental life choices. With the average mortgage payment in Washington County reaching $2,800 monthly at current interest rates, even well-paid professionals find themselves priced out of homeownership.The conversation delves into the market freeze created by interest rates, with 80% of existing mortgages locked in below 5%. This creates a bottleneck effect where homeowners refuse to give up favorable rates, preventing the natural lifecycle of housing—from starter homes to family homes to retirement properties—from functioning properly. Meanwhile, days on market have climbed to 77 days in Washington County, giving buyers more leverage to negotiate than they've had in years.Looking beyond numbers, Merkley and the host discuss how zoning restrictions and building requirements artificially inflate housing costs, celebrating builders like Jed Nielsen who've proven affordable homes can still be profitably built when regulatory barriers are reduced. The episode provides invaluable insights for both buyers and sellers navigating this transitional market, where patience and realistic pricing have become essential strategies.Guest: EMILY MERKLEY Chief Executive Office for the Washington County Board of REALTORS®Link: https://washingtoncountyrealtors.com/board-leadership/Looking for a Real Estate expert?

When 32-year-old Mikayla Evans fell five stories from a condo window in Johnson City, Tennessee, she woke from a coma with no memory of what happened, but with a shattered body and a chilling certainty: she had been drugged. Her fall led to disturbing allegations, not just against the man who owned the condo, Sean Williams, but against the very police department tasked with investigating him. As federal prosecutor Kat Dahl dug deeper, she uncovered a horrifying pattern of abuse, ignored reports, and possible corruption that may have enabled one of the most prolific sexual predators in recent history. This week, we're diving into a case that left us reeling—and angry. Sponsors: Acorns Early Head to acorns.com/creepers or download the Acorns app to get started.

If you’re accused of a crime, having the right to an attorney - regardless of ability to pay - is one of your fundamental constitutional due process rights in the U.S. At least in theory. In reality, Oregon - like many states around the country - has long suffered from a shortage of defense attorneys. In 2018 the shortage had become so severe that the nonpartisan nonprofit Sixth Amendment Center, found the state’s system so flawed it could not provide citizens with this fundamental right. Oregon has taken steps to restructure public defense and provide more funding for more public defenders, but the shortage remains. We talk about what state lawmakers are currently considering and more with Carl MacPherson, the executive director of Metropolitan Public Defender, and Kevin Barton, district attorney for Washington County.
Q: What happens when you bring a gaggle of country queers together for a weeklong audio workshop and retreat in rural coastal Maine? A: Rural Queer Maine Audio MAGIC! In November 2024 a group of rural and smalltown LGBTQ+ folks from across the state of Maine, spent 5 days together in Passamaquoddy territory / Washington County on the coast of Maine at a rural queer audio retreat. The retreat was organized and hosted by Out in the Open - a multiracial, majority working class, grassroots, movement and capacity building organization based in Wabanaki territory working throughout the states of Vermont and Maine to connect rural LGBTQ+ people to build community, visibility, knowledge and power. Participants produced short audio pieces, start to finish, over the five days that we spent living, learning, eating, walking, and laughing together. These pieces were produced with support from Out in the Open staff HB Lozito and Grace Johnston-Fennell, Michele Christle of Torchlight Media, and Rae Garringer of Country Queers. These pieces contain audio that may be challenging to hear or bring up emotions for listeners. Please take care of yourself!

Last year, the group Disability Rights Oregon brought suit against Washington County, alleging that when 911 is called for people in mental health crises, it’s often law enforcement officers who respond. The lawsuit claims these officers are more likely to exacerbate a crisis than resolve it. Last week, a federal judge ruled that the case can move forward. Dave Boyer, managing attorney for the Mental Health Rights Project at DRO, joins us to lay out their claims.

First-class airfare to Hawaii. Five-star hotel stays. Lots and lots of food. All of it footed — directly or indirectly — by customers of a large Portland-area utility. A recent Oregonian/OregonLive investigation found that executives with Clean Water Services, Washington County's sewer agency, have spent years enjoying fancy business trips to Hawaii and meals on ratepayers' dime. None of the lavish travel spending is accounted for in the agency's annual budgets. And, despite months of probing questions and public records requests, officials have not yet disclosed the total cost of four Hawaiian trips or provided the receipts on hundreds of thousands of dollars in food spending. On the latest Beat Check, Shane Dixon Kavanaugh talks to Jamie Goldberg about her rigorous watchdog reporting led to this month's series on Clean Water Services. Learn more about your ad choices.

(NOTE: This episode is being posted two days early just in case we lose connectivity in the forecasted thunder/hailstorm later today.) Today, as travelers outside the Beaver State's borders know well, Oregon's roads are merely average, or maybe slightly above average, in terms of crowdedness and quality. Certainly other states tend to have more and wider interstate freeways. But you don't have to go too far back into the past to find a time when Oregon's highway system was something rather special. It's a legacy that goes all the way back to the dawn of motoring; when the Good Roads movement got started, it really took off in Oregon, starting in the early 1910s with the nationally famous Columbia Gorge Highway. But the true reason for the lion's share of Oregon's transformation into a midcentury motorist's paradise is much more prosaic: Our state was the first in the nation to levy a gasoline tax to fund its highway system.
