  • An apology 50 years later seems kind of late!
    Aug 19 2022

    A lot can happen in two weeks. I Was away in Michigan visiting the famz over there. Now back to the podcast grind. The FBI recently finished an operation regarding human trafficking. They rescued around 200 victims. Which is a small dent against that illegal activity that no one pays much mind to. The FBI has been getting a bad rep as of late, but they shouldn't for these efforts. In California there has been mandates for middle and high school students to go to school later. They get to sleep in more, instead of dozing off in 1st period. Hopefully the move can extend to elementary students later. Rest is important, especially at that age! The last story I'm covering for the episode deals with leaders of the Academy awards issuing an apology to Sacheen Littlefeather almost 50 years after her infamous acceptance speech at the 1973 Academy awards. There was a lot of controversy with Littlefeather being at the awards show in place of actor Marlon Brando. Now 50 years later she gets sympathy, does it seem a little late? Listen in and leave with positive vibes!

  • Slapping yourself as self-punishment seems a bit much
    Aug 5 2022

    Welcome all, hopefully you aren't slapping yourselves. For this week's news I look across the ocean first. China has done a lot of missile tests extremely close to Taiwan. That line is close to being stepped on. This is all in response for Taiwan hosting the US Speaker of the House after warning the US not to touch down onto Taiwan. Now a bunch of ''tests'' are being done as well as a of bunch adult Chinese men slapping themselves as self-punishment for letting a US rep be in Taiwan. Over in Atlanta a music festival shuts down after guns are ruled to be allowed at the festival site. Safety first, especially when people/fans can be unpredictable. I also look at briefly on some other stories revolving around the recent mega million's winner, the monkeypox, and the verdict for Brittney Griner's case in Russia. Finally, I look at another towns potential water shortage over in New Mexico and who they are going to combat that. Listen in and leave with some positive vibes!

  • Getting sucked into a sinkhole while vibin' in a pool would be traumatizing!
    Jul 29 2022

    I shouldn't have called out the heat, because the heatwave has made its way to Eastern Oregon. In this week's episode I will look at a story in Israel where two men were sucked into a sinkhole while partying in a swimming pool. Apparently, the owners of the pool didn't even have a permit to build there. In other worldwide news, it's been estimated that there are more tigers out in the wild than perceived. Now they aren't in the clear yet, but at least the tiger population is making progress. Finally, I will look at a story focusing on a bunch of different people trying to start a movement to not have lawns having only grass on it. Having a diverse lawn cuts down on water and uses of pesticides. They might be onto something when it comes to a potential water problem that might surface in the near future. Listen in and leave with some positive vibes. Remember where you came from, it will help you on your path!
