For seven years, Lewis Lent worked as a janitor at a movie theater in Pittsfield, Massachusetts. He volunteered his time helping the blind. He studied the Bible and became an ordained minister. He mentored neighborhood kids who called him "the Big Brother." And behind that mask of kindness, he was hunting, abducting, and murdering children across the northeastern United States.In this episode, we trace the full story of Lewis Lent from his troubled childhood in rural upstate New York through his nomadic years drifting across Florida, New Mexico, and the Northeast, to the horrific crimes that would eventually define him.We cover the nineteen ninety abduction and murder of twelve year old Jimmy Bernardo from a Pittsfield strip mall, the nineteen ninety two disappearance of sixteen year old Jamie Lusher in Westfield, Massachusetts, and the nineteen ninety three kidnapping, rape, and murder of twelve year old Sara Anne Wood in Sauquoit, New York.We also tell the story of the girl who stopped him. Twelve year old Becky Savarese, who faked losing her breath and slipped out of her backpack to escape Lent at gunpoint on a frozen January morning in nineteen ninety four. Her courage and quick thinking cracked open cases that had gone cold for years and ended a predator's reign of terror.This episode covers the massive multi-state investigation, the three day interrogation that produced Lent's chilling confessions, his so-called "master plan" to imprison children in a hidden room in his apartment, and the courtroom proceedings that put him away for life.We also examine the thirty year search for Sara Anne Wood's body, a search that continues to this day because Lewis Lent refuses to tell her family where he buried their daughter.If you have any information about the whereabouts of Sara Anne Wood or Jamie Lusher, please contact the New York State Police Troop D Headquarters at 315-366-6000.

On this episode of the Swell Season Surf Podcast, we welcome board industry vet, Jamie Meiselman to the show! We  trace his journey from cold-water surfing in Westfield, New Jersey and the DIY dawn of Northeast snowboarding to a lifetime of innovation across board sports. Jamie reflects on his early roots in skate, surf and competitive snowboarding, pioneering boot technology with Burton and Airwalk, and his years shaping the voice of the industry as Managing Editor of Transworld Snowboarding during its explosive growth in the early 90s. After earning an MBA at Columbia, he pursued an ambitious surf-focused wave pool project that ultimately collapsed, shaping his philosophy on risk, resilience, and iteration. In 2017, Jamie returned to his core passion and founded Solite, introducing the first heat-moldable surf bootie and building a lean, performance-driven brand now respected worldwide. This conversation explores obsession, reinvention, craftsmanship, wave pool evolution, and the mindset behind creating products that truly improve function — closing with reflections on shaping, favorite boards, and the perfect eternity wave.Follow Jamie's company Solite Boots on Instagram @solitebootsand you can check out the latest selection at https://soliteboots.com/The Swell Season Surf Podcast is recorded by The NewsStand Studio at Rockefeller Center in the heart of Manhattan and is distributed by The Swell Season Surf Radio Network. For more information, you can follow @swellseasonsurfradio on Instagram or go to our website: www.swellseasonsurf.com Music: Artist: Sure SureSong: This Must be the PlaceAlbum: Sure Sure00:00 Welcome to the Swell Season Surf Podcast + Jamie Meiselman's Wild Resume04:18 Risk, Failure & the Brutal Early Wave Pool Dream (1999–2004)07:08 Franken-Boots, First Patents & Burton/K2 Innovation Stories10:47 The Obsession Advantage: How Jamie Thinks, Learns & Gets Distracted (AI Tools)13:21 Building a Lean Niche Brand: Solite's Focus, Marketing & Why Performance Wins19:02 Growing Up in NJ: Skateparks, Hamptons Summers & Learning to Surf23:32 Early Snowboarding DIY Era: Woodshop Boards, Ski-Shop Roots & Tinkering Mindset28:07 Solite Origin Story: From Seamless EVA Surf Gloves to Heat-Moldable Boots32:42 Staying Small on Purpose: Competitors, Core Values & Avoiding the ‘Next Nike' Trap35:46 Founder Reality Check: Freedom vs 7-Day Weeks, Support Systems & Family Balance41:58 Less Is More: Letting Kids Learn With Guardrails42:53 Balancing Marriage, Work, and Empty-Nester Life43:42 Surf vs Snowboard: Family Interests & Learning Curves46:17 Living Inland vs Beachside: Staying Hungry for Waves49:40 Dartmouth Days: Choosing Mountains, Quitting Lacrosse for Snowboarding52:03 Starting a Snowboard Club + Early Skiers vs Snowboarders Tension54:41 The ‘Urinal Meeting' That Launched a Transworld Writing Career57:09 Why Surfing Stays #1 (and Chasing Feel Over Progression)01:00:06 From Shaping Curiosity to DIY Boardbuilding as a Step-by-Step Process01:05:52 Boots, Concave Decks, and Performance-Enhancing Gear Ideas01:09:17 Inside Transworld's Boom: Ads, Trade Shows, and Snowboarding's Explosion01:13:30 From Airwalk to Burton: Boot Wars, Culture Shock, and the Wave-Pool Seed01:19:45 From Water Parks to Surf Pools: The Wave Pool Spark01:20:27 Prototyping the Dream: Trade Shows, Engineers & Early Wave Tech01:21:42 Business School as a Launchpad: Columbia, Seed Money & Raising Capital01:24:09 The Hard Part: Rejection, Anxiety, and Getting to the First Million01:26:20 The Fatal Flaw: Adjustable Bottom Contours and Why the Pool Kept Breaking01:28:11 When It Fell Apart: Boardroom Confidence, Bad Partners & Lessons Learned01:29:43 The Randall's Island “What If”: NYC Indoor Surfing That Never Happened01:32:18 Bouncing Back: Mindset After Failure and Building Smarter at Solight01:35:48 Solight's Growth Playbook: DTC vs Wholesale, Dealers, and Global Distribution01:40:17 Marketing Breakthrough: Pros in Cold Water and the Slater Boots Moment01:43:19 What's Next for Solight: New Products, Hats, and “No Me-Too Gear” Philosophy01:47:57 Surfer Questionnaire + The Perfect Eternal Wave (and Wave Pools Today)01:54:34 Closing Thoughts: The Future of Surfing, Wave Pool Communities & Sign-OffBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/swell-season-surf-radio--3483504/support.

Harold Bronson in conversation with David Eastaugh  https://mogandavidandhiswinos.bandcamp.com/album/savage-young-winos Out of circulation since 1976, the recordings of the Los Angeles rock band Mogan David and His Winos is finally be available again. The group's lineup featured a 'who's who' of heavyweights in the American music industry, including Harold Bronson and Richard Foos (co-founders of Rhino Records), Paul Rappaport (Columbia Records), and Mark Leviton (Rhino/Warner Music Group). Additionally, the band included Jonathan Kellerman, a New York Times bestselling author known for his series of novels starring the fictional child psychologist Alex Delaware. Started in high school by Bronson, a music-obsessed Los Angeles native, the Winos' band name was derived from Westfield, New York's Mogen David Wine Company, inspired by those crazy band names from the psychedelic era, such as Jefferson Airplane and Strawberry Alarm Clock.  

A psychiatrist who treated the Westfield Bondi Junction attacker has been referred for review by the coroner investigating the mass killing in 2024. New South Wales State Coroner Teresa O'Sullivan criticised the care of Joel Cauchi's former psychiatrist for failing to adequately respond to a schizophrenia relapse in the years before the mass stabbing, which saw six people killed and 10 injured. She has made 23 recommendations, including a call for the Health Ombudsman of Queensland to review the psychiatrist's care and treatment of Joel Cauchi. - Опубликованы результаты расследования массового нападения с ножом в торговом центре Westfield Bondi Junction в Сиднее. 13 апреля 2024 года Каучи нанес ножевые ранения 10 людям, убив шестерых, прежде чем был застрелен инспектором полиции Нового Южного Уэльса Эми Скотт.

In our first news roundup of 2026, we discuss California reactions to the killings of Renee Good and Alex Pretti by Border Patrol and Immigration and Customs Enforcement agents, the latest drama in the long-running efforts by California Forever to build a new city, and a nostalgic goodbye to the Westfield Mall in downtown San Francisco.

San Francisco's largest mall just closed its doors—a day early, no less—after nearly 20 years of slow-motion collapse. What started as a 1.5 million square foot retail destination plummeted from $1.2 billion in value to a pathetic $133 million credit sale that nobody even wanted to bid on. We're talking about a mall so bad that human waste in the elevators increased 400%, Panda Express was literally sued to leave, and shoppers chose Amazon over risking the experience. This video covers the entire saga: the foreclosure nobody bid on, Westfield handing back the keys, and Mayor Lurie's uphill battle to figure out what to do with this massive monument to failed progressive policies. The conversion-to-housing dreamers clearly haven't done the math—retrofitting 1.5 million square feet of interior retail space with no windows makes zero economic sense. So what's next for this albatross? A soccer stadium? A permanent reminder of what happens when policy ignores reality? Drop your predictions below and subscribe for updates as this disaster unfolds. Is anyone surprised a mall known for elevator excrement couldn't compete with online shopping?

When a 400% increase in human excrement events in your mall elevators becomes a regular Tuesday, you know you've hit rock bottom. San Francisco's largest mall—1.5 million square feet of former retail glory—is now officially dead. Panda Express, the last restaurant standing, has closed its doors for good.This wasn't a slow decline; this was policy-induced collapse. Remember "15 days to flatten the curve"? Try two years of lockdowns that killed foot traffic, combined with open-air drug markets and the Tenderloin's finest using elevators as bathrooms. The mall went from millions of shoppers to zero bids at foreclosure auction. Not even at $134 million—less than 20% of peak value. Westfield literally handed the keys back to lenders and said "good luck."Meanwhile, city leaders proposed solutions like... a soccer stadium? Sure, because what San Francisco needs is more places nobody will visit. Is anyone surprised this happened? What did they expect when they turned a blind eye to street chaos for years?

The Weaver family has been in the specialty egg game for a long time, and they've seen incredible success with their brand, Westfield Egg Farm. A big reason for that success has been their continued willingness to innovate, including a unique model that holds their contract farmers to extremely high standards, but also gives them the autonomy to run their operations as they see fit. Our guest today is George Weaver IV — G4 for short — and he's in charge of sales and marketing at Westfield. G4 gives us a glimpse into the relationship between retailers and specialty egg producers, the ways Westfield tries to differentiate themselves on the aisle, and the importance of supporting small family farms as the industry continues to consolidate.  

This week Ivy Slater, host of Her Success Story, chats with her guest, Peg Wright. Peg Wright's inspiring journey from the corporate world to launching a nonprofit, the evolution of CGE's trauma-informed approach to supporting homeless pregnant women and adolescents struggling with addiction, and how building a dedicated team has allowed the organization to serve over 600 people each year.  In this episode, we discuss: How Peg Wright founded the Center for Great Expectations in 1998 to serve homeless pregnant women and adolescents battling cycles of homelessness, abuse, and addiction, building the organization from the ground up with mentorship and collaboration. What Peg has learned about treating trauma and substance use simultaneously, integrating expert research and evolving best practices into long-term residential and outpatient programs tailored for women's unique needs. When and why Peg expanded services to include supportive housing and holistic care addressing social determinants of health, recognizing that stable housing, infant mental health, and comprehensive support are critical for sustained recovery. Why Peg emphasizes listening and presence as key support for individuals in crisis, encouraging community members to be informed and compassionate allies to those facing hardship. How Peg encourages nonprofit newcomers to follow their passion and start where they are, underscoring that even small contributions, volunteer efforts, or advocacy can create ripple effects in addressing systemic challenges.   Peg Wright has served as President and CEO of The Center for Great Expectations since 1998, when she founded The Center to assist homeless, pregnant women and adolescents in "breaking the cycle" of homelessness, abuse and addiction. The program began in a donated house in Somerville, serving twelve women per year. Under Peg's leadership, CGE now provides an uncompromised continuum of care across prevention and treatment of substance use and mental health disorders, for individuals who have experienced trauma, with relationally-based programs including Residential Treatment Centers for women and adolescents and their children; Katy's Place, an on-site child development center; the Roots to Recovery outpatient center in New Brunswick; 28 units of Permanent Supportive Housing; and START, a free one-of-a-kind in-home and telehealth program for pregnant or parenting clients and their infants. The Institute of CGE trains and consults clients and partners in our client-centered, evidence-based approaches. Peg leads a team of 115 full- and part-time employees, countless volunteers, and a dedicated Board of Trustees. Her commitment to providing the most impactful programming has supported an innovative clinical approach, resulting in programs that address underlying traumas and focus on building self-esteem, life skills and the critical relationship between mother and child. Informed by CGE's foundational Trauma C.A.R.E.© model and evidence-based approaches, The Center provides client-centered treatment for the best possible outcomes for both parent and child, including early relational health, to break the cycle of intergenerational trauma, substance use and homelessness. During her first career in sales and sales management of diagnostic imaging equipment, Peg developed the dynamic skills she uses today to partner with the public, private, and academic sectors to bring the highest level of care to the clients of The Center. She is passionate in collaborating with dedicated behavioral health clinicians, specializing in trauma-informed care and early relational health, to advance the individualized, compassionate mental health and substance use treatment CGE provides to marginalized women and men from all counties of New Jersey. On September 23, 2021, Peg received Somerset County Business Partnership's 70th Citizen of the Year Award. In 2018, Peg was recognized for her service to the community, receiving the New Jersey State Governor's Award for Public Service, by the State of New Jersey, the Jefferson Awards Foundation. She was also named Citizen of the Year by the New Jersey Psychology Association, an award given to a non-psychologist who has made significant contributions to the ideals of mental health or social welfare. That same year, Wright was named in the "Top 25 Leading Women Entrepreneurs and Intrapraneurs" by New Jersey monthly magazine, in the categories of Innovation, Community Involvement, and Advocacy for Women. In 2015, Peg was selected as an NJBIZ "Top 50 Women in Business," an affirmation of her outstanding contribution in the nonprofit sector. and was honored to be named a "New Jersey Hero," by the NJ Heroes Foundation. Governor Chris and First Lady Mary Pat Christie and leaders of the Foundation visited The Center for Great Expectations to tour the facilities, meet clients and staff, and deliver Peg's award, along with a foundation grant. In 2025, Peg received a Russ Berrie, Making a Difference Award, honoring NJ changemakers. Peg is asked to share her expertise in the field of behavioral health: She is an affiliate member of Dr. Denise Hien's multidisciplinary team of external research collaborators and addiction education instructors at Rutgers University's Center of Alcohol & Substance Use Studies (CAS), as well as a founding community advisory board member of CAS's new Wellness in Recovery (WinR) Addiction Advocacy Research Program, directed by Dr. Margaret Swarbrick and co-directed by Dr. Hien. Peg is also a founding member of the Addiction and Behavioral Health Alliance, launched in 2018, by Dr. Bob Lynn. Year-round Peg is invited to showcase the work of CGE and share her experience with friends and colleagues throughout New Jersey. Most recently, in January 2022, Peg convened with 60 participants from around the world to share the work of The Institute of CGE at the virtual learning event "Models of Community-Centered Maternal Mental Health and Substance Use Disorder Programs," organized by The Community Health Acceleration Partnership (CHAP). To mark International Women's Day, Peg was asked to keynote a special meeting of The College Woman's Club of Westfield, founded in 1917 "to further the higher education of women and serve the general interests of the community" in the awarding of scholarships.
