Mark Thornton replays his Rothbard University lecture on government spending and taxation, using Rothbard's framework of binary intervention to overturn the standard civics-story that taxes are “the cost” of government and spending is “the benefit.” Mark argues both are economically destructive and distortionary, and that treating them as neutral is a category mistake. Drawing on John C. Calhoun's class analysis, he distinguishes net taxpayers from net tax-consumers, explaining how political finance systematically transfers wealth, reshapes production, and undermines saving, family formation, and long-run growth. The lecture closes with a vivid “wagon” analogy: as more people move from pulling to riding, the whole economy slows and eventually stalls.2026 is the Year of Rothbard—Murray's 100th birthday—and we're celebrating by giving away free copies of Keynes the Man through June 30.

Mark Thornton shares his recent Rothbard University lecture on the division of labor, the concept Adam Smith made famous as chapter one of The Wealth of Nations but never fully explained. Smith described workers specializing in tasks and productivity rising, then attributed the result to an invisible hand he couldn't account for. Rothbard accounted for it: the entrepreneur decides how to organize production, the capitalist funds it, and the price system guides both. Without them, the workers in Smith's pin factory would have no factory, no pins, and no wages. Mark traces this insight from Sparta versus Athens to feudalism versus Venice to Henry Ford's assembly line, showing why every system that ignored the entrepreneur failed for the same reason.2026 is the Year of Rothbard—Murray's 100th birthday—and we're celebrating by giving away free copies of Anatomy of the State through May 31.

Mark Thornton replays his wide-ranging Kitco News interview with Jeremy Szafron, connecting today's “two economies” to Ludwig von Mises's Austrian business cycle theory. Easy money and credit inflation lift asset owners, big corporations, and government finance, while working families get the bill through higher prices and weaker real wages. They discuss late-cycle signals in tech and AI and broader corporate credit, and how war-driven energy shocks feed into a wider commodity surge. Mark also breaks down Cantillon effects at the kitchen-table level and closes with bottom-up strategies like local resilience, savings, and removing tax barriers to using gold and silver as practical inflation protection.2026 is the Year of Rothbard—Murray's 100th birthday—and we're celebrating by giving away free copies of Anatomy of the State through May 31.

Joshua Windham on ICE, Surveillance, Property Rights & the Future of LibertyWhat happens when government power collides with individual rights? And are America's courts still willing to defend freedom when it matters most?In this bonus episode of the Yaron Brook Show, Yaron sits down with Institute for Justice senior attorney Joshua Windham to discuss ICE detentions, government surveillance, property rights, economic liberty, and the growing battle over the Fourth Amendment.From wrongful detentions and warrantless searches to attacks on economic freedom, this conversation explores how fragile liberty becomes when courts defer to government power — and why state constitutions may become the next major defense of individual rights.The episode also dives into constitutional interpretation, judicial philosophy, Scalia's legacy, asylum law, Weimar Germany parallels, and the future of the Supreme Court.If you care about freedom, constitutional limits, and the future of individual rights in America, this is a must-watch conversation.Watch Now: https://youtube.com/live/SXMjmDf0ClsAbout: Joshua Windham is a senior attorney at the Institute for Justice and co-director of IJ's Project on the Fourth Amendment.

In a world filled with noise, opinions, distractions, and competing voices, how do you know which voice you're truly following? In “Have You Heard About the Herd,” Minister Frank Windham delivers a passionate and engaging message about recognizing the voice of Jesus and following Him as the Good Shepherd. Drawing from John 10:26–30, Romans 10:17, and Matthew 4:18–22, Minister Windham explains how Christ calls His sheep to hear His voice, trust His leading, and remain close to Him in a culture full of confusion and spiritual distraction. Through humor, practical examples, and biblical teaching, this message challenges believers to block out the noise of the world, stop ignoring God's voice, and fully commit to following Jesus with faith and obedience. This sermon is both encouraging and convicting, reminding listeners that true peace, purpose, and eternal life are found not in following the crowd—but in following the Shepherd.
On the latest episode of Minor Issues, Mark Thornton opens with a candid assessment of his own prediction record: what he got right, what he got wrong, and why Austrian economics tells you what must come but not when. He then turns to the current landscape: every major valuation metric is flashing red, market concentration exceeds the level on the cusp of the 1987 crash, deficit spending is at World War II levels, and the Fed is injecting $40 billion a month in new liquidity. Yet Wall Street remains unanimously bullish. The second half features an interview with Kaniki Kojo on gold, fiat currencies, and the Austrian school's growing global influence.2026 is the Year of Rothbard—Murray's 100th birthday—and we're celebrating by giving away free copies of Anatomy of the State through May 31.

Mark Thornton opens this episode with a strategic assessment of the war's economic fallout: not the headlines, but the second- and third-order effects that are only now becoming visible. Oil production facilities across the Gulf have been destroyed, disrupted, or shut down, and restarting them is not a matter of flipping a switch. Some older wells will need to be redrilled entirely. Meanwhile, the disruption to fertilizer production threatens the next crop season and potentially longer-term food prices worldwideMark also provides a skyscraper curse update: the Jeddah Tower, once expected to reach record height in early 2027, has been pushed further out as Saudi finances and Gulf logistics are redirected toward reconstruction. The commodity super cycle thesis, he argues, remains fully intact despite the gold correction.The second half features a detailed interview from Palisades Gold Radio in which Mark unpacks these themes further, covering the Austrian micro approach versus the Keynesian macro framework, why the stock market can hit all-time highs while the real economy deteriorates, and why the world is slowly but steadily moving back toward commodity money.2026 is the Year of Rothbard—Murray's 100th birthday—and we're celebrating by giving away free copies of Anatomy of the State through May 31.

Keep it Tavern. Episode 183 breaks down a week where WWE's future started changing fast. The post WrestleMania 42 roster cuts hit every level of the company, with Kairi Sane, Aleister Black, Zelina Vega, Zoey Stark, Alba Fyre, Nikki Cross, Joe Gacy, Bo Dallas, Dexter Lumis, Erik Rowan, Apollo Crews, Santos Escobar, the Motor City Machine Guns, Tyra Mae Steele, and several NXT prospects all gone. Kairi Sane's release is the hardest one to explain. She was active on television, coming off a singles win over IYO SKY on the April 13 Raw, and appeared to be headed toward a bigger story with Asuka. IYO SKY called the timing unexpected, Bayley said she was struggling to process it, and Kairi thanked fans while saying she would "set sail… in my own time." Aleister Black's exit raises similar questions after wins over Randy Orton, Sami Zayn, and Matt Cardona. These did not feel like talents being phased out creatively. They felt like cuts made while stories were still moving. The Wyatt Sicks were also wiped out, with Nikki Cross, Joe Gacy, Dexter Lumis, Erik Rowan, and Bo Dallas all released. Nikki Cross later called her time as Abby the Witch "the honour of a lifetime," tying the group back to Bray Wyatt, Brodie Lee, the Windham family, the Huber family, and the Fireflies who kept that world alive. The locker room reaction showed how heavy the day was. Alexa Bliss honored Nikki Cross and the Wyatt Sicks. Rhea Ripley called it a sad day. Chelsea Green and Piper Niven praised Alba Fyre. Asuka, Bayley, and IYO SKY supported Kairi Sane. Nathan Frazer gave a heartfelt tribute to Alex Shelley and Chris Sabin, crediting the Motor City Machine Guns for helping him during his first year on the main roster. At the same time, WWE is pushing new names forward. Ricky Saints is set for his SmackDown debut next week in Tulsa after one final NXT match against Shiloh Hill. Ethan Page and Sol Ruca already arrived on Raw, while Joe Hendry is set for his official Raw debut with a concert. SmackDown also got a jolt from Fatal Attraction, as Jacy Jayne, Fallon Henley, and Lainey Reid attacked Paige, Brie Bella, Alexa Bliss, Charlotte Flair, and Rhea Ripley. Blake Monroe is also headed to the blue brand after a vignette for "The Glamour," bringing her résumé as Mariah May, Owen Hart Cup winner, former AEW Women's World Champion, and former NXT Women's North American Champion with her. Cody Rhodes used SmackDown to send a pointed message beyond Randy Orton. Still showing the effects of Orton's punt, Cody called out the "outside forces" affecting his WrestleMania path, saying they are "0-3" and telling them to send their best or stay out of his business. The line appears aimed at TKO influence and connects to past WrestleMania shifts involving Roman Reigns, Dwayne "The Rock" Johnson, and John Cena. Tiffany Stratton also turned a missed WrestleMania into momentum, defeating Giulia to win the WWE Women's United States Championship. The win ended Giulia's 112 day reign and gave Stratton her third singles title in WWE. In her interview with Joey Karni, Stratton said missing WrestleMania gave her a chip on her shoulder, and she is determined to make sure it never happens again. Outside WWE, Lucha Underground suddenly resurfaced after years of silence with a "¿Más?" teaser and the caption "soon." Taya Valkyrie, Willie Mack, Ivelisse, Vinnie Massaro, The Butcher, AJ Francis, Shelly Martinez, Chelsea Green, and Brian Cage all reacted, with speculation already pointing to anything from a YouTube library rollout to something bigger. AAA is also teasing a shift of its own. Marisela Peña Roldán confirmed that a new general manager will be revealed on May 23 in Mexico City after Dorian Roldán asked for the role. She made it clear that nothing in AAA will remain the same once the new GM is announced. Episode 183 is about transition everywhere. WWE is cutting major names while elevating new ones. Cody Rhodes is calling out the power above the ring. Tiffany Stratton is forcing her way back into focus. Lucha Underground is stirring again. AAA is preparing a reset. The whole landscape feels like it is moving at once. Be sure to support the show and follow us @TurnbuckleTavern. Until next week, stay out of the alley and away from the pork and beans. Good luck and good speed.

1984 - Windham, New Hampshire 25-year-old Chris Bird was missing. According to his friend, Richard Brunt, he was last seen at DQ Stables after the pair returned from a camping trip in July of 1984. Days later, Chris's car was found abandoned at a nearby mall. Chris was nowhere to be found. But Richard Brunt was hiding a violent past. Years earlier, he had been convicted of murdering his partner in Florida before relocating to New Hampshire, where he attempted to build a new life. As Chris's disappearance deepened, attention turned to the last person known to have seen him, and investigators soon began to question whether the same dangerous patterns that marked Richard Brunt's past had followed him north. If you have any information on the disappearance of Chris Bird, please contact the New Hampshire Cold Case Unit at (603) 271-3658 or email coldcaseunit@dos.nh.gov.

The final push to the Crockett Cup is heating up. Barry Windham looks for revenge against Tully Blanchard in a one-on-one match. Their friends get involved which leads to a follow up tag match but not with the partner you expect. Everyone wants a piece of the Midnight Rider. The main course for this whole stretch is served up in the form of a tag team title defence. The Twin Towers of Luger & Windham put the titles on the line against the former champs the Horsemen.

1984 - Windham, New Hampshire 1975 - Plantation, Florida When 25-year-old Chris Bird didn't return home after a camping trip in New Hampshire with a friend in July of 1984, alarm bells began to ring. Days later, his car was found abandoned at a nearby mall with a flat tire-Chris was nowhere to be found. Nearly a decade earlier, on New Year's Day in 1975, the Broward County Sheriff's Department in southern Florida received a call from New Hampshire authorities: someone had confessed to a murder in their area. When police arrived at the home, they found 28-year-old George P. Long dead on the floor. Two cases, seemingly unrelated. Different states. Years apart. But when a newspaper article exposed a troubling past, the connections became impossible to ignore—leading investigators to focus on the one person both cases had in common. If you have any information on the disappearance of Chris Bird, please contact the New Hampshire Cold Case Unit at (603) 271-3658 or email coldcaseunit@dos.nh.gov. Part 2 will be released on Tuesday, April 21.

Send us Fan Mail# Grunge## Episode Info- **Episode**: S03E94- **Title**: Grunge- **Original Air Date**: March 2026- **Duration**: 1 hour, 26 minutes## Episode SummarySteve and Windham throw on their imaginary flannel and build a Perfect Album Side for grunge, focusing on the songs, videos, soundtrack moments, and closers that defined the genre's brief but massive takeover. Along the way they talk about how grunge steamrolled hair metal, salute David Hudson and *State of Amorica*, and argue through what really belongs under the grunge umbrella.## Topics Covered- How grunge disrupted late-80s hair metal almost overnight- The Seattle scene, Sub Pop, and the anti-corporate identity of grunge- Why Nirvana, Pearl Jam, Soundgarden, and Alice in Chains became the center of the movement- The role of movie soundtracks and MTV in making grunge unavoidable- The gray area of “is this actually grunge?” with bands like Stone Temple Pilots, Smashing Pumpkins, Sonic Youth, and The Breeders- The emotional weight of Andrew Wood's legacy in songs by Temple of the Dog and Alice in Chains## Deep Dives- **Temple of the Dog – "Say Hello 2 Heaven"** as a tribute to Andrew Wood and a statement opening track- **Pearl Jam – "Jeremy"** as the era's defining music video juggernaut- **Alice in Chains – "Would?"** and the *Singles* soundtrack as central grunge artifacts- **Soundgarden – "Outshined"** in *True Romance* and the wider movie-soundtrack moment- The case for outliers and neighboring acts like The Breeders' "Cannonball" and Stone Temple Pilots' "Plush"- **Nirvana – "Rape Me"** and the band's role in making the whole grunge explosion possible in the first place## Fun Facts & Highlights- The episode quickly escalates into a George Costanza-style block-of-cheese visual.- Steve realizes he no longer owns any flannel shirts, which leads to the instant fake-band name **Final Flannel**.- There's a heartfelt shoutout to David Hudson and Ian Rice of *State of Amorica*, with David's exit from the mic helping inspire the episode.- The guys keep circling back to the same glorious grunge question: was the music the revolution, or was it also the look, the attitude, and the backlash to purple sequined jackets?- Andrew Wood's shadow hangs over the episode in a meaningful way, with multiple songs tied back to him.## Referenced Artists, Songs & Content- Temple of the Dog- Pearl Jam- Alice in Chains- Soundgarden- Nirvana- Stone Temple Pilots- The Breeders- Sonic Youth- Smashing Pumpkins- Mudhoney- Screaming Trees- Mother Love Bone- Chris Cornell- Eddie Vedder- Kurt Cobain- Andrew Wood- "Say Hello 2 Heaven"- "Jeremy"- "Would?"- "Outshined"- "Cannonball"- "Plush"- "Rape Me"- "Smells Like Teen Spirit"- "Hunger Strike"- *Singles*- *True Romance*- *State of Amorica*## Episode TakeawayGrunge wasn't just a sound—it was a correction, a mood, a look, and a cultural hard left turn. This episode works because Steve and Wyndham don't just list songs; they capture why this music felt like a detonation when it arrived.One idea. Six songs. Infinite possibilities...

What if the things we call ghosts…aren't the only ones watching? Tonight on ParaReality, Sandman sits down with D. Paul—U.S. Navy veteran, Native American Holy Man, and spiritual warrior—to explore the terrifying true inspiration behind Mystery's at the Windham Inn: The Feral Feline. At the center of this story lies the Windham Inn, a place steeped in centuries of tragedy, where the line between the living and the unseen has all but disappeared. Here, dark entities don't just haunt—they hunt. And the battle for one man's soul reveals something far bigger than a traditional haunting. Because lurking behind the veil are the Watchers—mysterious beings who observe, record, and, at times, intervene. Are they spiritual guardians…or something closer to what we now call non-human intelligence? As Season 20 dives deep into UFOs and Disclosure, this episode asks a chilling question: What if the paranormal, the spiritual, and the extraterrestrial are all part of the same hidden reality? From ancient curses and generational hauntings to portals, possession, and unseen forces manipulating free will—this is more than a ghost story. It's a glimpse into a war that may have been unfolding around us for centuries. Turn on. Tune in. And find out. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

In this timely special episode, we sit down with Glenn Adkins of the Ohio Squatch Project to discuss the unprecedented surge of Bigfoot activity that gripped Northeast Ohio between March 6th and March 10th, 2026. Glenn brings a rare combination of skills to the field, having served as a police officer, park ranger, and firefighter. He shares how his investigative background and his years as the "right-hand man" to legendary researcher Robert W. Morgan have shaped his approach to this current crisis.Don't miss this special report episode of Bigfoot Society where Glenn shares what's been going on in Ohio!Resources:https://www.ohiosquatchproject.com/The writeup of the Ohio Bigfoot Flap so far - https://www.bigfootsocietypodcast.com/blog/the-ohio-bigfoot-flap/Bigfoot Observer's Field Manual book by Robert W.

Join Jeremiah Byron of the Bigfoot Society Podcast for a special urgent report regarding a rapid series of Sasquatch sightings in Northeast Ohio. Since March 6, 2026, a "flap" of activity has emerged, moving from Mantua Center eastward through Garrettsville, Windham, and Newton Township.In this episode, we break down six primary sighting reports, including:The Researcher's Encounter: A nine-foot brown male Sasquatch spotted in broad daylight by an MTCR researcher.The Headwaters Trail Incident: A harrowing account from Garrettsville where witnesses observed an 8-to-10-foot figure with a "stilts-like" gait and a powerful musky odor.The Skeptic's Story: A first-hand report from a homeowner in Windham who witnessed a six-foot figure with a massive stride running across her neighbor's property.The Newton Township Shadow: A very recent 4:00 AM encounter involving a terrified German Shepherd and a large, black shadowy figure estimated at 10 feet tall.Jeremiah discusses the specific patterns of these sightings, which appear to be moving east-southeast at a rate of approximately three miles per day. We also touch on the "Bigfoot Society" partnership with local researchers to verify these claims on the ground within hours of their occurrence.Important Note for Researchers: We urge everyone to remain cautious and avoid "overlapping evidence reports" by refraining from excessive call-blasting or tree-knocking in the active areas.Have you seen something? If you have had a sighting in Portage County, Trumbull County, or the surrounding areas, please contact bigfootsociety@gmail.com.
In a world where faith is often pressured into silence, believers are called to stand boldly without apology. In “No Shame in His Name,” Minister Frank Windham encourages listeners to remain confident in their identity in Christ and unashamed of the gospel. Drawing from passages such as Romans 1:16 and other supporting scriptures, he explains how true freedom and transformation come through the power of Jesus—not through the approval of the world. This message challenges believers to reject fear, embrace their calling, and live openly for Christ with courage, conviction, and unwavering faith.

For more than 20 years, the same patch of woods in Southern New Hampshire kept responding to one man's presence.Near the Pelham, Windham, and Hudson area—just minutes from Nashua and the Massachusetts border—an experienced outdoorsman began noticing things that didn't add up. A silent figure in the road at dusk. Woods that went unnaturally quiet. Heavy footsteps where no one should be. Strange odors, impossible footprints, objects thrown with force, and lights moving through the trees where no one was standing.These weren't isolated moments. They happened again and again, always in the same places: hunting trails, ponds, rock walls, and deep forest edges surrounded by towns and neighborhoods.In this episode of Bigfoot Society, Doc shares his full account for the first time—how it started, what followed, and why it took decades before the pattern finally made sense.If you think activity like this only happens far from civilization, listen closely.Some woods remember you.

WhoJimmy Ackerson, General Manager of Corralco, ChileRecorded onJuly 24, 2025About CorralcoClick here for a mountain stats overviewLocated in: Curacautín, Araucanía, ChileYear founded: 2003, by Enrique BascurPass affiliations: Indy Pass, Indy+ Pass – 2 days, no blackoutsBase elevation: 4,724 feet (1,440 meters)Summit elevation: 7,874 feet (2,400 meters) top of lifts; 9,400 feet (2,865 meters) hike-toVertical drop: 3,150 feet (960 meters) lift-served; 4,676 feet (1,425 meters) hike-toSkiable acres: 2,475 acres lift served; 4,448 acres (1,800 hectares), including hike-to terrainAverage annual snowfall: 354 inches (899 cm)Trail count: 34Lift count: 7 (1 high-speed quad, 1 double, 5 J-bars)Why I interviewed himThe Andes run the length of South America, 4,300 miles from the southern tip of Argentina north to Venezuela. It is the longest continental mountain range on Earth, nearly six times the length of the Alps and 1,300 miles longer than the Rockies. It is the highest mountain range outside of Asia, topping out at 22,841 feet on Mount Aconcagua, more than a mile higher than the tallest point in the Rockies (14,439-foot Mount Elbert) or Alps (15,772-foot Mont Blanc).So this ought to be one hell of a ski region, right? If the Alps house more than 500 ski areas and the Rockies several hundred, then the Andes ought to at least be in the triple digits?Surprisingly, no. Of the seven nations transected by the Andes, only Argentina and Chile host outdoor, lift-served ski areas. Between the two countries, I'm only able to assemble a list of 37 ski areas, 33 of which skiresort.info categorizes as “temporarily closed” – a designation the site typically reserves for outfits that have not operated over the past several seasons.For skiers hoping to live eternal winter by commuting to the Upside Down each May through October, this roster may be a bit of a record scratch. There just aren't that many ski areas in the Southern Hemisphere. Outside of South America, the balance – another few dozen total - sit in Australia and New Zealand, with scattered novelties such as Afriski lodged at the top of Lesotho. There are probably more ski areas in New England than there are south of the equator.That explains why the U.S.-based multimountain ski passes have been slow to move into the Southern Hemisphere – there isn't much there to move into. Ikon and Mountain Collective each have just one destination on the continent, and it's the same destination: Valle Nevado. Epic offers absolutely nothing in South America.Even with few options, Vail moved south a decade ago with its purchase of Perisher, Australia's largest ski area. That English-speaking nation was a logical first pass frontier, but the five Kangaroo resorts claimed by the Epic and Ikon passes are by far the five largest in the country, and they're a 45-year flight from America. New Zealand is similarly remote, with more but generally less-developed ski areas, and Ikon has established a small presence there.But South America remains mostly wide open, despite its obvious appeal to North Americans: the majesty of the Andes, the novelty of summer skiing, and direct flights with no major timezone hopping required. Mountain Capital Partners has dropped anchor in Chile, purchasing Valle Nevado in 2023, neighboring La Parva the following year, and bidding for also-neighboring El Colorado in 2025 (that sale is pending regulatory review).But perhaps it's time for a broader invasion. Last March, Indy Pass added Corralco as its first South American – and first Southern Hemisphere – ski area. That, as Ackerson and I discuss in the podcast, could be just the start of Indy's ambitions for a continent-spanning (or at least, Argentina- and Chile-spanning) resort network.So this is a good time to start getting to know Chilean skiing. And Ackerson, longtime head of the Chilean Ski Areas Association, former leader of Chilean giants Portillo and Valle Nevado, and a Connecticut-born transplant who has been living the upside-down life for more than 50 years, is probably better suited than anyone on the planet to give us that intro.What we talked aboutReverse ski seasons; why Corralco draws (and retains) so much more snow than any other ski area in Chile; no snowmaking; Corralco as training ground for national ski teams; the logistics of moving a high-speed quad from Holiday Valley, New York to the Chilean Andes; rebuilding a lift as a longer machine; how that lift transformed Corralco; new lift, new alignment; the business impact of replacing a double chair with a high-speed quad; how a dude who grew up in Connecticut with non-skiing parents ended up running a ski area in South America; Chile's allure; Portillo; Chilean skiing past and present; Corralco's founding and evolution; shrinking South American ski areas; Mountain Capital Partners (MCP) buying four more ski areas in Chile after purchasing Valle Nevado in 2023 and La Parva in 2024; the Americans are coming; why La Parva, Valle Nevado, and El Colorado “have to be consolidated” for the benefit of future skiing in Chile; MCP's impact on Chilean skiing so far; “the culture is very different here” both on the hill and off; MCP's challenges as they settle into Chilean skiing; why Corralco joined Indy Pass; a potential Indy Pass network in South America; and getting to Corralco from the U.S., from airplane to access road – “we have no switchbacks.”What I got wrong* In the intro, I said that it was the “heart of ski season in South America.” This was true when we recorded this conversation in July 2025. It's not true in January 2026, when the Chilean ski season is long over.* I said the highest peak in Chile only received a few inches of snow per year and didn't retain it, but I couldn't remember the name of the peak – it is 22,615-foot Ojos del Salado.* I gave new stats for Corralco's high-speed quad, but did not mention where those stats came from – my source was skiresort.info, which catalogues a 4,921-foot length and 1,148-foot vertical drop for the lift, both substantially longer than the 4,230-foot length and 688-foot vertical rise that Lift Blog documents for the antecedent Mardi Gras lift at Holiday Valley, New York. We discuss the logistics and mechanics of moving this machine from North to South America and extending it in the pod. Here are a few pics of this machine I took in New York in January 2022:Podcast NotesOn Corralco's evolving footprintCorralco is a new-ish ski area, at least insofar as public access goes. The 2008 trailmap shows a modest vertical drop served by surface lifts:But growth has been rapid, and by 2022, the ski area resembled modern Corralco, which is now an international training center for athletes:On Camp Jewel, ConnecticutAckerson learned to ski on a two-tow bump called Camp Jewell, a YMCA center in Connecticut. NELSAP has some fun info on this defunct ski area, including photos of what's left of the lifts.On Sigi GrottendorderAckerson's conduit to South American skiing came in the form of Austrian-born Sigi Grottendorfer, who led the ski schools at both Sugarbush, Vermont and Portillo, Chile. He passed away in 2023 – The Valley Reporter ran an obituary with more info on Grottendorfer's expansive and colorful life.On Chile “five years after the coup had occurred”We reference past political instability in Chile, referring to the 1973 coup that launched the military dictatorship of the notorious Augusto Pinochet. The nation transitioned back to democracy in 1990 and is considered safe and stable for tourists by the U.S. State Department.On PortilloWe discuss Portillo, a Chilean ski area whose capacity limits and weeklong ski-and-stay packages result in Windham-is-private-style (it's not) confusion. Skiers can visit Portillo on a day pass. Lift tickets are all of $68. Still, the hotel experience is, by all accounts, pretty rad. Here's the bump:On previous podcastsWe mention a few previous podcast guests who had parallels to Ackerson's story. Bogus Basin GM Brad Wilson also left skiing for several years to run a non-ski resort:Longtime Valle Nevado GM Ricardo Margolis appeared on this podcast in 2023:On the shrinking of Volcán Osorno and PillánI won't reset the entire history here, but I broke down the slow shrinkage of Volcán Osorno and Pillán ski areas when Mountain Capital Partners bid to purchase them last year:On Kamori Kankō buying HeavenlyFor a brief period, Japanese company Kamori Kankō owned Steamboat and Heavenly. The company sold both to American Skiing Company in 1997, and they eventually split owners, with Heavenly joining Vail's roster in 2002, and Steamboat now part of Alterra by way of Intrawest. Today, Kamori Kankō appears to operate five ski areas in Japan, all in Hokkaido, most notably Epic Pass partner Rusutsu:On MCP's free season passes for kids 12 and underOne pretty cool thing that Mountain Capital Partners has brought to Chile from its U.S. HQ is free season passes for kids 12 and under. It's pretty incredible:On Sugarbush Ackerson worked for a long time at Sugarbush, an Alterra staple and one of the best overall ski areas in New England. It's a fully modern resort, with the exception of the knockout Castle Rock terrain, which still spins a double chair on all-natural snow:On skiing El ColoradoWe discuss the insane, switchbacking access road up to El Colorado/La Parva/Valle Nevado from Santiago:The route up to Corralco is far more suited to mortals:The Storm explores the world of lift-served skiing year-round.

In this bonus episode of Banking on Fraudology, powered by Safeguard , Hailey Windham talks with Ben Graf, a self-taught AI expert in the neobank space. Ben embodies the spirit of curiosity and courage driving the next wave of fraud-fighting transformation.The conversation dives into what it really looks like to learn AI from the ground up, emphasizing that the future of fraud prevention isn't about replacing people, but empowering them through technology.Key Takeaways: AI, Innovation, and Fraud-Fighting EmpowermentUsing AI to Learn AI: Ben explains how he used varying LLM chats (like ChatGPT, Claude, and Gemini) as a coach or mentor, experimenting for hours to understand their capabilities, consistency, and how to effectively prompt them.This approach helped him translate technical language and practices (like data analysis, SQL, and JavaScript) into actionable knowledge for his team, breaking down communication barriers.The hardest part was knowing where to start, but the key was realizing that "something is better than nothing" and compounding knowledge quickly breaks down barriers.Practical AI Applications for Eliminating Busy Work: AI should be used to make teams more efficient and help professionals focus strategically.Automating Document Verification: AI can use OCR to pull data, flag inconsistencies, and serve up summaries for identity, business, and income documents, which are often the most time-consuming parts of a review.Data Retrieval and System Silos: AI can help team members write their own SQL queries to retrieve data from data warehouses, dramatically reducing requests to the data team.Product and Feature Proposals: AI tools can mock up full dashboard concepts and even provide code snippets to give engineers a visual and break down communication barriers between fraud and technical teams.The Power of Empowerment and Buy-In: Leadership should create a culture where fraud fighters are empowered to explore and innovate.The magic of time savings lies in filling the time freed from "busy work" (like false positives) with new, high-impact tasks, whether that's cost savings in fraud loss or better customer retention.Teams are advised to keep proprietary or PII information out of the loop and find safe spaces to explore, remembering that everyone is still figuring out what AI can do.Get in the mood of being grateful for the fraud-fighting community, and be reminded of how strong the fraud-fighting community truly is. About Hailey Windham:As a 2023 CU Rockstar Recipient, Hailey Windham, CFCS (Certified Financial Crimes Specialist) demonstrated unbounding passion for educating her community, organization and credit union membership on scams in the market and best practices to avoid them.

In this special episode of Banking on Fraudology, Hailey Windham welcomes back Ian Mitchell, founder of The Knoble, to delve into the organization's critical mission, its global impact, and the urgent need for community support. The conversation centers on the concept of "human crimes" , a focus area for The Knoble which includes human trafficking, child exploitation (especially online exploitation of children), scams, and elder financial exploitation. Ian emphasizes that banks are in a powerful position to detect and disrupt these financially motivated crimes proactively. Key Takeaways: Mission, Impact, and UrgencyThe Knoble's Network & Tools: The Knoble is a 501c3 nonprofit that serves as a community of nearly 3,000 financial professionals dedicated to fighting financial crime with heart. The network has collaboratively developed tactical tools, including a business case sheet for justifying scams programs , a post-scam victimization guide , and a SAR addendum/template that attaches data fields to SAR filings to help law enforcement modernize their approach to analytics. Human Crime Specialist Program: Ian introduces the six-month Human Crime Specialist (HCS) Program , an intensive training course designed to equip financial professionals across all organizational levels (with 5+ years experience preferred) to fight all human crimes, covering everything from prevention and detection to policy and victim response. Global Impact: The Knoble's commitment to coordinated industry action has earned them an invitation to the United Nations to help strengthen the worldwide response to human trafficking. Critical Funding Shortfall: Ian transparently addresses the urgent funding moment facing The Knoble. He appeals to the community for support to ensure their work—which is critical to human safety and disrupting organized crime—can continue. The Call to Action: Ian's message to fraud fighters and leaders is to "live with heart" and to remember that they are in the people business. He encourages listeners to get involved in The Knoble's free network and consider sending a team member to the HCS Program.

In “Excel in Exile,” Minister Frank Windham continues teaching from 1 Peter 4:12–19, reminding believers that suffering is not a setback—it's part of the Christian calling. Drawing from passages like Romans 8:35–39, John 16:33, and Mark 10:29–30, Minister Windham explains that trials, persecution, and spiritual pressure are not signs of abandonment but opportunities to walk like Christ and reflect His glory. He warns against suffering for sinful choices—murder, theft, evil, or meddling—while urging believers to live with integrity, endure persecution, reject shame, and entrust their souls to God. Through practical instruction and encouragement, this message calls every believer to endure faithfully, suffer well, and excel in exile by keeping their eyes on Jesus.
In “Washed With the Blood, Dripping With Grace,” Minister Frank Windham teaches from 1 Peter 4:1–11, reminding believers that because Christ suffered for us, we are called to live differently—dead to sin, alive in the Spirit, and walking in the power of God's grace. Drawing from Romans 3:23–24, Romans 5:9, and 1 John 2:15–17, Minister Windham urges believers to reject the passions of their former life, resist worldly pressure, live with self-control and sober-minded prayer, and demonstrate earnest love that covers a multitude of sins. This message calls believers to embrace their identity in Christ, use their gifts to serve others, and walk as those cleansed by His blood and empowered by His grace.
Banking on Fraudology is presented by Sardine.ai.In this episode of Banking on Fraudology, Hailey Windham sits down with Ravi Loganathan, Co-founder and President of Sonar AI and Head of Banking and Policy at Sardine. Ravi, who has over 20 years in banking and consortium work with institutions like Early Warning Services, Zelle, and Bank of America, has been leading the charge at Sardine to make intelligent sharing accessible and actionable for all institutions.The conversation dives deep into the concept of collective intelligence, which Ravi describes as a "must-have" in the age of accelerating AI-driven scams. Fraudsters exploit information sharing gaps by jumping from one institution (like a fintech) to another (like a large regulated bank), making an ecosystem-wide defense essential.Key Takeaways: Unlocking Collective Intelligence with Sonar AIThe Sonar AI Origin Story: Sonar AI was kickstarted three years ago by a group of banks and fintechs to fill a critical gap: the lack of infrastructure for real-time risk information sharing when funds movement or instant settlement is authorized. This was driven by the need to combat authorized push payment (APP) fraud, particularly concerning the lack of insights on the recipient.How Sonar AI Works: Sonar AI is an industry utility. Before an institution authorizes a fund movement or account opening, they can inquire into Sonar on the entity conducting the transaction. Sonar returns curated signals (often simplified to "high, medium, low" risk, block list status, etc.) for the institution to augment their existing risk decisioning process. In return, the institution provides feedback, benefiting the next inquiring member.Regulatory Foundation: Sonar AI is built on a strong regulatory framework, having worked with FinCEN to receive 314(b) designation to form an association of financial institutions. It also facilitates broader fraud signal sharing under the Gramm-Leach-Bliley Act (GLBA).Empowering Smaller FIs: Sonar AI offers features specifically for smaller community banks and credit unions, including batch contribution and batch inquiry to eliminate the need for immediate API tech builds. Ravi details their collaboration with the Independent Community Bankers of America (ICBA) accelerator program to embed Sardine's solutions into core providers and invite FIs to join Sonar as members.Future Innovations: Ravi reveals Sonar AI's newest services, including Footprint, which provides a broader view of a consumer's financial standing by tracking their transactions across crypto exchanges, marketplaces, and fintechs , and the expansion of the Red Flag service for monitoring credentials leaked on the dark web.This is a must-listen for investigators, executives, and anyone working in the financial crimes space who is serious about strengthening prevention efforts and is ready to embrace the future of shared, collective defense.About Hailey Windham:As a 2023 CU Rockstar Recipient, Hailey Windham, CFCS (Certified Financial Crimes Specialist) demonstrated unbounding passion for educating her community, organization and credit union membership on scams in the market and best practices to avoid them.

In this powerful bonus episode of Banking on Fraudology, powered by Safeguard, Hailey Windham sits down with Andrea Vallentine, Senior Vice President of Fraud and Risk at Old Glory Bank. The conversation dives deep into Andrea's genuinely excited perspective that "this might actually be the best time to be fighting fraud". We explore the rising momentum of collaboration and shared learning that is unifying the industry against fraudsters. Key Takeaways: Collaboration, AI, and Empathy in Fraud PreventionThe Power of Collaboration: Andrea highlights the exciting activities and investments from groups like Fraud Fight Club, Operation Shamrock, and House of Fraud. The focus is shifting from selling products to learning, educating, and collaborating. The AI Perspective: The industry is moving past fear, recognizing that AI has been around for a long time. The recent AI explosion has gotten people more open to listening, realizing they are already using smart technologies in areas like transaction scoring (e.g., Falcon) and link analysis. A Shift to Purpose: Collaboration is increasing because the industry now recognizes the emotional devastation and human impact of fraud. The focus has moved beyond competing to a shared mission of working together "against the fraudsters". Tips for Smaller Teams (Leveraging AI): Andrea recommends that smaller teams use AI (like ChatGPT) to draft summaries, create templates, and refine procedures. This allows teams to find holes in their processes and generate new ideas without using sensitive PII. The Human Side of Design: Empathy is shaping the next generation of fraud design. Using machine learning to identify patterns of customer friction , and giving real-life stories to team members, helps move them out of "robot mode" and focus on the customer experience. Andrea's Final Thought: AI is not scary, and we have been using it forever in things like marketing suggestions on Amazon.

Lindsay is joined by author D. Paul Fleming to discuss his book, “Mystery's at the Windham Inn: The Feral Feline,” which was released October 1, 2025. On a bitterly cold December morning nearly 280 years ago, a young woman named Elizabeth was executed…twice! With the governor's pardon in hand, her father was within musket shot when the noose finally stopped twitching. Ms. Elizabeth's last breath swept across the hills and hollows, as though the trees themselves carried her immortal curse through every limb, root, and fallen leaf. Her father, frozen by his failure, fell from his horse and swore an unholy promise to avenge his daughter's persecution. Make no mistake: Ms. Elizabeth's execution was not her end. Not by a long shot. Revenge, karma, reincarnation—and the timeless war between good and evil—are all at play in Windham County's most infamous property. Dark spirits and vengeful forces battle for dominance, seeking to claim the souls that once lived within the brick walls of this historical landmark. Though tales and mystery's often drift into myth, Ms. Elizabeth's story has never truly faded. For centuries, she's been seen walking the family farms, drifting through cornfields, lingering by the roadside, peering through windows—haunting the descendants of those who robbed her of life, justice, and land. Land that now lies beneath a building known as The Windham Inn. Become a member on Buy Me A Coffee for as little as $1/month to support the show.

All you need to know again (two weeks in a row - a first!) is Wolverine from Marvel vs. Capcom saying “BERSERKER (armor) BARRAGE! …BERSERKER (armor) BARRAGE!” over and over for this episode, as we close out the introduction to Guts' fabled cursed armor. Schierke really defines her main role in the series with the help of Flora's fiery force ghost, and we head back to oooooool' Windham to see that it's been taken over by Kushan…with almost every citizen murdered and hanged from the ramparts.

Welcome to episode 69 of Music in the Minor League! We're back after a break spent finishing up the album, playing some benefits and preparing for a month-long break from shows. It was good to get some time away, but we missed talking music with folks. To celebrate our landmark 69th episode, we could only think of one person to talk to. That person was Howell Windham (aka Howell Kuache) of Houston folk-rock-punk band Tekuache. You may recognize Howell from this prior band, Houston-area legends: Blackgrass Gospel. We were stoked to have the opportunity to record one of our conversations with Howell and to ask him some personal questions without it being weird since it was for the podcast. We hope you dig it! Be sure to check out Howell's bands and prepare for the Blackgrass Gospel reunion planned for Walk This Earth Festival 2026!

Thanks for all of your work on the podcast and for all of the amazing advice every week! I would like to make a change in our bedroom, but could use advice on paint colors and specifically what to do about our tray ceiling. I don't love the tray ceiling, but it would be expensive to remove so we are keeping it. I also don't love our current paint color (SW Pussywillow - it sometimes looks purple-ish to me) or the way the tray ceiling is currently painted. The other element that is at play is the small hallway/ vestibule leading into our bedroom, which we are planning to wallpaper and paint. We've selected a moody, green wallpaper and plan to paint the trim and ceiling a dark green. I would like the hallway and our bedroom to compliment one another (see attached for the wallpaper and paint colors we are considering for the hall). Given the hallway colors, would you recommend going dark or light in the bedroom? Should we paint the trim, walls and ceiling the same color to make the tray ceiling less noticeable? Or have contrasting trim? How would you treat the tray ceiling? Or will painting the strip of gray around the tray ceiling white to match the ceiling solve all of my problems? The room is Northwest facing, if that helps. A few other things I'm looking for for this room are an attractive ceiling fan and a throw for the bed. If you have any suggestions, I'd love to hear! I've attached photos of my room (the windows you see are the only windows in the room) and the hallway/ vestibule (no windows). Also, I'm planning to get a wood and/or cane headboard at some point so feel free to ignore the current one.
