Scott Huesing is a retired United States Marine Corps Infantry Major with 24 years of service, including 10 deployments to over 60 countries worldwide. He has led hundreds of combat missions in Iraq, Afghanistan, and the Horn of Africa, and since then he's authored the bestselling book, Echo in Ramadi, which tells the story of his experiences and the sacrifices of his fellow Marines during the Second Battle of Ramadi in 2006. Today, Scott serves as the Executive Director of Save the Brave, a nonprofit organization dedicated to helping veterans and active duty military personnel.

In 1993, Herman Williams, a decorated member of the US Navy, was stationed in Waukegan, IL where he lived with his ex-wife, Penny, and their two children. On September 26, Penny's deceased body was found in a shallow pond and Herman immediately became the sole suspect. Based on faulty forensic science as well as prosecutorial and questionable police conduct, Herman was sentenced to life in prison without parole.

It's Thanksgiving week when families gather to celebrate that for which they are grateful. With the family together in one place, it's a rare opportunity for relatives to talk about and even record family history, including family health histories. That's one lesson that is being learned by teenagers across the nation whose teachers have chosen to avail themselves of a no-cost, evidence-based health education curriculum called "Navigating the Health Care System," developed here at Nemours. Today we are joined by the Nemours associates who created and have made available this curriculum and teachers from Delaware, Illinois, and Alabama to talk about how they have used or are using it in their classrooms.  Kate Blackburn and Denise Hughes from Nemours Children's Health, along with Anyana Starling, Program Manager, Health Literacy Program, Southeast Alabama Area Health Education Center; Christine DeGuzman, Health Education teacher, Brookside campus, Waukegan High School, Waukegan, Illinois and Katie Marianello, Delaware teacher and original curriculum pilot researcher.  Download the "Navigating the Health Care System" curriculum here.  Carol Vassar, producer

On what would have been his 102nd birthday, The 21st discussed how Ray Bradbury shaped contemporary literature, space exploration, and his hometown of Waukegan.  

Frank McCormick was back at The Reason We Learn today to catch us up about what he's been doing since he took a stand last year in his district of Waukegan, Illinois. A former History and Civics teacher, Frank tried to fight critical theories from inside his school quietly, inside his classroom, but outside the school, he built a platform at Chalkboard Heresy, and told the truth about what was going on behind the schoolhouse doors. For that truth-telling, he paid dearly. After being harassed, bullied, defamed, and then ignored by his union, Frank recently decided to take a job offer elsewhere, and left. In this broadcast, he explains what why, how he sees the landscape of public education in America now, and what parents can and should do to protect their own kids.Thanks for listening, sharing, and subscribing!

That's 27 hours of vintage sci-fi for only $9.88.Ray Douglas Bradbury was an American author and screenwriter and one of the most celebrated 20th-century American writers. Born on August 22nd, 1920, in Waukegan, Illinois. His mother, Esther, was a Swedish immigrant and his father, Leonard, was of English ancestry. He was given the middle name Douglas after the actor Douglas Fairbanks, one of the biggest stars in Hollywood during the 1910s and 1920s.The Bradbury family lived in Tucson Arizona for a year from 1926 to 1927 then it was back to Waukegan. They tried Tucson again from 1932 to 1933 and then on to Los Angeles in 1934. The 14-year-old loved Hollywood and met radio star George Burns. Most people know of Ray Bradbury the writer, but did you know his first paid gig as a writer came when the 14-year-old sold a joke to Burns to use on the Burns and Allen radio show which ran from 1933 to 1950, when Burns and Allen then transitioned to television.Bradbury was an avid reader of H. G. Wells,Jules Verne,Edgar Allan Poe and Edgar Rice Burroughs. In 1936 at a secondhand book store, young Ray learned about a weekly meeting of the Los Angeles Fiction Society and at 16 he joined their Thursday-night get together. The teenager would sell newspapers on a street corner and then roller skate to the meetings!The avid sci-fi enthusiast wrote his first published sci-fi story in 1938, Hollerbochen's Dilemma. Bradbury would later say about his first story, "no one enjoyed my story" and "I think it was terrible myself". Keep in mind he was only 17.However, in 2014, Hollerbochen's Dilemma was nominated for the 1939Retro-Hugo Award for Best Short Story.Although Ray Bradbury lived a long and successful life he died two years before the nomination at the age of 91 on June 5th 2012 in Los Angeles. Was Ray Bradbury destined for success and fame? Well, to answer that question we share the words from Ray Douglas Bradbury himself. In his 1938 Los Angeles High School Yearbook he wrote, likes to write stories, admired as a thespian and headed for literary distinction! That's amazing.There's much more we could share with you about the legendary author, but we'll save it for another Ray Bradbury short story in future episodes of The Lost Sci-Fi Podcast. Okay, I couldn't help myself, one more thing… to say he was prolific would be a gross misrepresentation of the facts, Bradbury wrote more than 30 books and more than 600 short stories. Today's story comes from the Summer 1944 edition of Planet Stories, which was sold for 20 cents.
