Eric Chase

The fine crew at Lourdes University asked if they can have the on air breaks done from their instant admission fair day! I am happy to oblige as they're always gracious and welcoming hosts to my twice a year visits. 

This is the third time it's my somber pleasure to welcome Nike Licata for a visit to talk about losing her son, on active duty in Alaska, to suicide. The third Run For Life happens September 16th at Dana MORE HERE. And this is Nike's visit last year, with a fuller version of her loss. 

With Nike this time is Amanda Held from HOOVES. Hooves is equine healing, which was just for veterans (Amanda was Air Force and is still in the Guard), but after so much success the program is open more people now, including and especially kids. 

I've had Amanda here several times before, but this is her most sage and powerful visit yet!

Jeep Fest struck a crushing blow to me!

Just not gonna win the popular vote on this issue. 

UT AD doing what he said he was going to do. 

Reading a preview of what that was had me intrigued. This was not a typical art festival. I appreciate Dani Fuller of Fuller Art House in Sylvania for visiting and sharing about her baby with the pod.

First, if they want to die, don't let them. Then, bringing back up my quirky idea to slow drivers down, and finally, Matchbox 20 will be here. Or so they're scheduled to be. 

Quickly on Issue 8, for which the onslaught of ads for it will only last another 6 days.

Alex has much less cynicism than me when it comes to the Lizzo drama. Stars acting terribly!? My word.

Is Alex trying to leave an apartment complex, or depart a war torn, overlord run country!?

Last night was a huge success at Glass City Metropark. 

It's Jaden's mom's birthday tomorrow night, with a dinner at Texas Roadhouse. 

Many collect vinyl these days, but Jaden collects another form of physical music media. 

Doja Cat vs. Her Fans.

Jaden and Bethany break down Issue 1.

Spoilers. Well, actually not really. You KNOW what happens in Oppenheimer. Oh, please tell you do! And Barbie, what kind of ending or cliffhanger would you be expecting anyway!? Both excellent movies.

First, the needs of the many unfortunately outweigh the needs of the few. 

Everyone has their price. 

Another 'one of those Twitter people!' But this was not just any Twitter person, he's one one the first people I came across in Toledo. Dustin Hostetler has some wonderful, reasoned perspectives about Toledo. They're what caught my attention on Twitter! 

I think you'll really enjoy about chat. 

Eight days out from the event and I started brainstorming songs I would like to hear, though it's unlikely I will.

My globally famous friends gets some Toledo new love. And a Packo's take on something.

Snoop narrating a Zoo video. 

I came across a new word. Unalive.

AI can't do that....

Couple of big celebrity divorces announced yesterday. Let me run some math by you about marriage.

When that person you don't expect, likes you!

Too much for parking, too far to walk.

And a visit from Lori Balogh, as we continue guests during Disability Awareness month. Lori does outreach and engagement for Lucas County Dept. Of Developmental Disabilities.
