A few years ago, longtime friends Shawn Carson and Andrew Conn were discussing how the local restaurant scene’s farm-to-table ethos hadn’t yet spilled over into the burgeoning craft brewing community. The two had a thirst to get back to their agricultural roots, so over beers they hatched a plan to become a planting partner for local brewers.
Carson, an anesthesiologist, and Conn, a managing partner for his family’s construction company, decided their side hustle would have to start small. Barley one of beer’s four main ingredients along with water, hops, and yeast was their initial focus, but growing it requires a lot of acreage, so instead they launched Hopped Farms.

âHey everyone, welcome back to the Carson Podcast,â Shawn Carson said as he opened his eleventh episode. After only a few episodes, rather than recruiting friends to appear on the show as he had done originally, people started coming to the Kearney podcaster. He has a quickly growing fan base, with listeners in Australia, Chile, Mexico, Canada, Saudi Arabia, The United Arab Emirates, with a domination of the Midwest in the U.S.
Carson never set out for this kind of recognition, and he never thought this many would listen. His goal for the show was simply the betterment of his own character.

The Funhouse: One of the 80s Most Unsung Horror Delights
Horror directing legend Tobe Hooper directed The Funhouse in 1981 and it still remains a deliciously creepy classic horror movie.
Tobe Hooper made an eruption of horror ingenuity with his second feature film,
The Texas Chainsaw Massacre, a gritty and grainy horror classic that would prove to be one of the most influential films in horror history. A brilliantly brutal, thoroughly disturbing, and strangely real-feeling slasher before slashers that favored hellish atmosphere over blood yet still feels like peak cinematic violence,Texas Chainsaw Massacre expressed Hooper was already a developing master of depicting terror on screen.

JERSEY CITY On Dec. 25, 2005, a foggy, rainy night, Jersey City Officers Shawn Carson and Robert Nguyen delivered emergency flares to colleagues on the Lincoln Highway Bridge to stop traffic because the bridge’s crash gates were damaged by a truck and inoperable.
As the two finished handing out the flares and drove towards Jersey City, their truck drove off the road and plunged 45 feet into the 40-degree Hackensack River beneath them.
The bridge’s safety bar and warning lights failed to activate when the lift-bridge opened for a tugboat to pass.
