10 SEP 2026 · If Vermont law restricts local automated license-plate surveillance, do you believe obtaining Flock data from cameras in another state through NESPIN is consistent with the intent of that law? Barre City Police Chief Brad Vail gives a full hour to address what is and what is not happening in the city. And would could be potentially changing soon ...

Hospital staff.
All front-line workers, and frankly ANYONE ... this morning was one not to miss. I was joined by Mike Starner, Director of Outside Line Safety for the National Electrical Contractors Association.
We talked about something that goes beyond simply knowing there is risk in your career. Awareness is one thing, but awareness without action doesn't really change anything. Mike believes the conversation needs to go deeper than another meeting where everybody checks the boxes and moves on. It's about human connection, understanding the people behind the statistics and making safety personal.
We also talked about why employers needed to get off the sidelines and take a much more active role in creating a culture where people looked out for one another.
Looking for another typical pep talk about worker safety and mental health? This is NOT your show. Interested in having a real conversation - outside of your comfort zone - about finding real solutions and changing the way we approach employee needs? Here it is in this episode.
When it comes to mental health, turning awareness into action is the difficult part. Share this one.

26 AUG 2026 · Chad Althiser knows that his identity and worth extend far beyond the uniform, medals, combat experience and leadership titles. https://www.facebook.com/sweetheartsandheroes?__cft__%5B0%5D=AZYgyRgxmpB4MWZUMfYblNqFV8_8oiCM56T2BJrjEwojcozw-NnSeQxpX8DEH8f7D8z2QhFV1zNm-U5bXOxPfnArQZt0KCqWwLMACP3poYUGJU2csid9tjM1MzyJ4tnWFRRIo3d8NCWMZxYpQj4hWVvnby9y_18SqEkjX2Hk_-lo5t_RSPcNUDLQEIi8x-En2gw&__tn__=-%5DK-R describes Chad as a retired U.S. Marine Corps Major and three-time combat veteran who now brings his human-performance experience to work with young people, educators and high-risk professions. Today on Aired Out, Chad Althiser of Sweethearts & Heroes joined me for what may be one of the most powerful conversations I've ever had on this podcast.
Chad took us inside his “Human Factor” presentation with a circle of Marines in Jacksonville, North Carolina, but what happened during our conversation went far beyond the presentation.
He opened the door to parts of his own life that aren't usually found on a résumé.
The loss of his younger brother.
Three combat tours.
Afghanistan.
Ramadi.
The weight carried home from experiences most of us will never understand.
And then came the question that seemed to sit at the center of everything Chad was telling me:
Are we ever enough?
Because for Chad, “being enough” has little to do with the rank of Major, the Marine Corps uniform, the medals, the accomplishments or the titles.
It's about being human.
It's about what happens when the uniform comes off.
It's about vulnerability.
It's about grief.
It's about connection.
It's about what we carry silently.
And ultimately, it's about recognizing that our value isn't determined by what we've accomplished or what we've survived.

And Vermont has two young players making some serious history.
Logan Haskins is Vermont’s first Junior Pro in the American Cornhole League, while his sister Hannah is Vermont’s first female Pro. That makes the Haskins family a pretty unique part of the Vermont cornhole story.
Thank you Hannah and Logan Haskins for joining Aired Out this morning and introducing us to the fast-growing world of competitive cornhole - another reminder that if you think cornhole is just something you play in the backyard at a summer cookout, you might want to think again.
This morning also serves as a reminder of why I love podcasting so much. The story. And what makes their story so cool is that they’re doing it together. Brother and sister - competing, traveling, practicing and continuing to raise the profile of a sport that has exploded well beyond the backyard.
Congratulations to both of them, and we’ll be following their progress as they continue making history, one bag at a time.

19 AUG 2026 · Today on Aired Out, Sweethearts & Heroes welcomes Melissa Caress of the International Brotherhood of Electrical Workers, LIVE from Alaska. Melissa serves as the Statewide Training Director for the Alaska Joint Electrical Apprenticeship & Training Trust, where she plays a key role in developing the next generation of skilled electrical workers through apprenticeship and workforce training.
The program provides training for wiremen, linemen, telecommunications workers and line-clearance tree trimmers, combining classroom education with hands-on experience and career opportunities.
Melissa’s message of leadership, connection, mental health and looking out for the people beside you is profound at the very least. She has been involved in conversations around The 5th Wire Program, an initiative focused on strengthening peer support and the human connection among electrical and utility crews, recognizing that sometimes the most important connection on the job is the one between people.
Today’s conversation gives us a chance to hear from someone on the front lines of apprenticeship development, workforce preparation and leadership, while also exploring what it means to build stronger, more connected teams and communities. #sweetheartsandheroes

This summer, the appeal celebrates Alex Boguzewski, a longtime Central Vermont Home Health & Hospice employee and Central Vermont community member.
