Did iHeartRadio fire the wrong show host?

Did iHeartRadio fire the wrong show host?

This guy is possibly the worst radio personality to pollute the Des Moines airwaves. His undying love and devotion to Donald Trump is scary.

Simon Conway is not only an amateur radio host, he cheers on cruelty and encourages it. He cheers on murder commited by MAGA goon squads.

He likes to say you can judge a person by the way they treat animals. Then he goons out over Kristi Noem while she's on his show. Not one word about how she trests animals .

His former producer called him out for designing an Alligator Alcatraz hat and openly bragging about it on the air. All of a sudden the producer was gone and Simon's annoying wife becomes "producer".

Conway is an embarrassment to Iowa. iHeartRadio fired the wrong people.

Ruan Grand Prix Posters

The 1st picture is the Ruan Grand Prix Programs, 2nd picture is the posters I've acquired. I am trying to collect all of the matching posters to the programs, if they exist. I have 91, 92, 93, 94. I have not been able to find 89 and 90, the ones in the red box.

If anyone has any leads on posters that match the 2 in the box I will gladly pay top dollar for them. Please let me know.

Lake Red Rock before/after (and lost towns)

I've had an interest lately in dam-formed lakes and comparing them with historical maps from before the lake was formed. Today, I put up on my website Lake Red Rock, using modern aerial photography and a topographical survey map from 1912 that shows the now-submerged towns of Red Rock, Cordova, Dunreath, Rousseau, Fifield, and Coalport.

I put it on my website because that's the best, easiest way for me to post and share the files. It has a before/after slider so you can zoom in and do some comparisons. Enjoy!

Edit:
By request, Saylorville Lake
For your curiosity, my hometown lake which started this project, Lake Onalaska (Wisconsin)

Seeking deep clean after depression

Hey all, a bit of a vulnerable post but looking for honest recommendations from personal experience. I went through a 6 month deep depression which resulted in lots of trash and grime accumulation in my home. Feeling better now, and looking for a company that can help me reset without judgement. Anyone been through this? Who would you suggest? If you can add details from your experience to ease my mind, that's a bonus. 💜​

In need of sushi!

My fiancé took tomorrow (Monday) off from work. He’s wanting to take me and our kids (we all love sushi!!) to get this CHEAP “All you can eat,” sushi. I just want to explore places that do this. Any place in the metro you can think of that does all you can eat sushi on the cheaper side on Mondays at lunch time? I am notttt asking for sushi suggestions for any other time. I’ve been to every sushi place within a 20 mile radius. However, I’ve never gone during the day for this sort of thing. The kids really like simple rolls, so it really wouldn’t be worth it to go for $30/person for all you can eat when it would be cheaper to get both of them a California Roll each.

Thank you very much!

To every lawmaker the voted to legalize fireworks

I hope your coffee is always cold, your water heater runs out half way through every shower, and that your spouse cheats on you with circus clowns.

WOI/KCWI

I know something happened a month or so ago. Is anyone able to get WOI/KCWI with just an antenna? Anyone have the inside scoop on what happened and if they plan on fixing it?

Looking for an attorney for a trust

My In-laws are needing to update their will and make a trust. There are so many ads on FB for "webinars" or meet in person in a group at dinner.

Has anybody used an attorney for this they can recommend?

TIA

What kind of bar person are you?

I came to the realization tonight. I just like to sit and chat. Keep it to about a drink and hour. Getting older makes you realize getting drunk is not the goal. Hope you all had a lovely 4th. And a great 5th.

most economical long-term parking for des moines airport

The Gray Economy lot seems to be going up in price every time I go. And when we are gone for two weeks, it really bites. The parking shuttle is now less frequent and sometimes comes full in the Gray North.

Are there any alternatives for DSM airport parking long-term (2 weeks or so) in economy?

Waukee 4th of July parade

Lots of cheers and hoots of excitement for Rob Sand and Co. and I am pleased to announce it was SILENT for all of the Republican candidates. (Minus a few boos and shame on yous!) Iowa, I know you can make people proud and turn this state around in November

And as always, fuck you Zach Lahn

Best Coin Stores?

I’m looking to get back into coins, but I haven’t been into the hobby much since 2020 when I lived in Iowa City. I know gold and silver prices are up, but I still like to pick up odds and ends that pique my interest, what are some of your favorite ones?
