NOT SUITABLE FOR PUBLICATION

KILL NOTICE: This submission does not meet publication standards for a local news article.

Issues:

• Source material is a podcast episode recorded April 26, 2026 — seven weeks old with no news peg.
• No event date, venue, or Grand Haven connection provided.
• No upcoming event to preview, no past event outcome to report.
• Lacks the essential facts (WHEN, WHERE) required for local news coverage.

Recommendation: Do not publish. If Brad Ruggles is appearing live in Grand Haven or has a local connection, resubmit with specific event details, date, and venue.
