Podcasts about All I Want

This week, we're covering the issues that really matter: why kids today will never know the lung-shredding character development that came from using a BloPen head-marker-gun. Back in our day, your art wasn't “digital”—it was created by nearly passing out on a piece of printer paper. Now the markers basically airbrush themselves. How will Gen Alpha ever build lung capacity? Or personality?We also dive into the existential crisis known as Apple Music and Spotify Wrapped—the annual reminder that your most-played songs say far too much about you, and none of it is flattering.Then we ask the question every office worker trapped in a freezing parking lot is wondering: why hasn't a car company invented scheduled remote start like “turn on my heat at 4:55 PM so I can pretend I'm not suffering”? Tech has gone too far in all the wrong directions.And finally, we address the true holiday mystery: how big of a contradiction is it that Mariah Carey opens “All I Want for Christmas Is You” by claiming she doesn't want a lot for Christmas… and then immediately demands an entire human being? Seems like a pretty big “lot,” Mariah.

Son tube “All I Want for Christmas Is You”, sorti en 1994, ne vieillit pas : il réapparaît dans le Top Singles français, grimpe régulièrement dans le Top 10, et a déjà atteint la 2e place lors de précédentes saisons. En 2025, même scénario : alors que les nouveautés s'enchaînent et que d'autres artistes monopolisent l'actualité musicale, Mariah revient, imperturbable. Preuve que ce titre est devenu bien plus qu'un hit saisonnier : c'est un phénomène culturel, un réflexe collectif, un signal que les fêtes approchent vraiment.

主播：Meimei（中国）+ Maelle（法国） 音乐：All I Want for Christmas Is You最近又到了“解冻”Mariah Carey（玛利亚·凯莉）的季节了！今天我们就来聊聊这个每年圣诞季准时出现的网络热梗“Defrosting Mariah Carey”。01. What Is Defrosting Mariah Carey? 什么是“解冻玛利亚·凯莉”？玛利亚·凯莉（Mariah Carey）是美国乐坛的传奇天后（legendary diva）。她的经典圣诞歌曲All I Want for Christmas Is You是很多人的圣诞金曲首选。每年圣诞节期间，这首歌都会再次登上各大排行榜前列（starts climbing the charts again）。Every year she gets “defrosted（解冻）” 被“冻住”一整年的Mariah Carey，再次被“激活”了！所以冰封了一年的这首歌也在感恩节后解冻了。“Mariah Carey Defrosting” has now become an annual meme（年度梗）。Thanksgiving（感恩节）马上就要到了（around the corner）。在美国，只要感恩节一过，很多人就开始装饰圣诞树，放圣诞歌单，轰轰烈烈地进入holiday season模式。在TikTok和Instagram上，我们会看到很多视频，比如“感恩节一结束的我（Me the moment Thanksgiving）”或“进入12月1日的我（Me on December 1st）”——背景音乐永远是以她的这首歌开始。连Mariah Carey都玩起了自己这个梗，彻底接纳了（fully embraces）这一搞怪潮流。每年一到这个时候，she posts her own “defrost” videos：自己被封在一块冰里慢慢融化。She's a true queen of Christmas（当之无愧的圣诞女王）。02. When Does Christmas Start? 圣诞季什么时候开始？在美国，关于什么时候可以开始播放圣诞音乐，其实是有争论的（debate）。有些人坚持“December only（December派）”，而有些人从万圣节后就开始听了（start right after Halloween），就属于“November派”。主播Meimei属于“December only”派，认为圣诞氛围应该从12月开始。主播Maelle表示十一月或十二月都可以，她认为圣诞音乐总能带来温暖的节日回忆和氛围（bring back memories and festive feelings）。03. Does China Have Equivalent? 中国也有类似的“节日信号”吗？就像Mariah Carey的歌是圣诞季（Christmas season）的官方信号（signal），在中国，刘德华的《恭喜发财》一响起，大家就知道：真的要过年了！在商场里买年货的时候一听到《恭喜发财》，过年的DNA就动起来了！这就像是中国版的“Mariah moment”！我们可以让这两首歌梦幻联动一下（mashup）。04. Traditional Cues & Rituals 中法传统的“节日开启信号”在中国，很多家庭会在冬天泡腊八蒜，这是一种用醋腌制大蒜（marinade the garlic with vinegar）的传统习俗，等到腊八节的时候颜色就变绿了（turns green）。这标志着“忙年”的开始，也就是春节的开始。就像是一种烹饪式的倒计时（a culinary countdown），提醒人们春节即将到来。这也体现了中国传统文化中“一年之计在于春”的农耕思维。在法国，一旦进入十一月，商店会布置圣诞橱窗（putting up Christmas windows），面包店开始销售Bûche de Noël（圣诞树桩蛋糕），街上也挂起节日灯饰。圣诞树桩蛋糕：shaped like a log (圆木), and traditionally eaten on Christmas Eve (平安夜).英国还会吃mince pie百果派来迎接圣诞。每个国家都有自己独特的食物来开启festival season。圣诞集市（Marchés de Noël）在十二月涌现（pop up everywhere），我们之前提到过的热红酒（vin chaud）也随处可见。这些信号都告诉我们：节日真的来了（the holidays are here）！节日的开启，不是官方公告，而是那些很小、很暖心的信号。歌声、味道、旧时光的回忆，都是我们的“节日开关”。欢迎在评论区告诉我们：What's the signal that tells you the festival is coming in your family?你家里都有什么节日小仪式呢？

the lists, we've made the Holiday 100 and checked it twice, as the ranking returns to Billboard's charts menu this week (chart dated Nov. 29, 2025). The survey ranks the top seasonal songs of all eras via the same formula used for the Billboard Hot 100, blending streaming, airplay and sales data.

Love, lust, and heartbreak are the secret soundtrack of the LA canyons. In this episode of My Rock Moment we welcome Emmeline Summerton of Instagram's Lost Canyons LA, a historian of the LA Canyons and former writer of the New Topanga Times. Together we trace that soundtrack through eight songs — uncovering the romance, the messiness and the broken hearts behind the lyrics. We start with “Guinnevere,” David Crosby's mysterious song inspired by 3 women — Christine Hinton, Joni Mitchell, and the surprising third muse, “Delta Lady” — Leon Russell's ode to Rita Coolidge and the wild, studio-to-road romance that sent them straight into Joe Cocker's Mad Dogs tour. Then we move to the Mamas & the Papas' “Go Where You Wanna Go,” a sunny single born from the band's very messy affairs.    From there:  “Our House,” Graham Nash's tiny, perfect snapshot of life with Joni Mitchell in Laurel Canyon — ordinary moments made into a classic. Then Joni's own “All I Want' about her relationship with James Taylor. We'll also unpack “Leather and Lace,” the duet that reunited Stevie Nicks and Don Henley after a broken romance and leer jet flirtations; “Faithless Love,” J.D. Souther's devastating ballad given wings by Linda Ronstadt during their fraught romance and end with Neil Young's "A Man Needs a Maid" off of Harvest. This is a tour of romance and ruin, tenderness and betrayal — the songs that turned private heartbreak into something the rest of us could sing along to. We'll share the stories behind each track and the music that made the canyons heartbreak famous.

Or that the oldest major soft drink in America is Dr. Pepper?• Bad Dates: Brace yourself for stories involving nipple piercings that "taste like house keys", sudden herpes confessions, and dating surveillance by an accompanying bodyguard.Catch the Back in Time Brothers every Monday on URL radio www.urlradio.net! and you can listen back anytime at www.backtimebrothers.comSupport the showThanks for listening.

Keeping details straight while writing a chronologically organized series is difficult enough. Focusing four full-length novels on the events of a single group experience in a single year, with back stories and future developments for a small group of heroines, each of whom has a chance to tell her own story of the central event and its consequences, requires even greater skill. Yet Karen Swan pulls off this mammoth enterprise in her Wild Isle series, which concludes with The Midnight Secret (Macmillan, 2025). The Last Summer, the first book in the series, opens in June 1930 with three friends sitting on a rock plucking fulmars, a kind of seabird. Effie, Mhairi (the Gaelic form of Mary, pronounced VAH-ree), and Flora already know that they will have to evacuate their island home in the Outermost Scottish Hebrides within a few months. Flora greets the change with enthusiasm, Effie with cautious pragmatism, and Mhairi with despair. From this first book and the two that follow, The Stolen Hours and The Lost Lover, we discover what drives each young woman's response. We also delve ever deeper into the circumstances leading up to a mysterious death, highly unusual in the history of this isolated island with its tightly intertwined population of thirty-six individuals. The Midnight Secret begins in 1926 with the perspective of Jayne Ferguson, the slightly older wife of a handsome but, she soon learns, abusive man. It then jumps forward to 1930. From her mother, Jayne has inherited a particular form of second sight that shows her the faces of people in her vicinity who are destined to die soon. The visions haunt her until the death occurs, but they do not come with useful information about what will cause it or how to prevent it. Sometimes even the “who” remains murky at first. The combination of this rather disturbing gift and what Jayne sees as the necessity to conceal her husband's abuse erect a barrier between her and those around her, especially after the transition to the unfamiliar landscape of the Scottish mainland. At the same time, Effie, Mhairi, and Flora are wrestling with the consequences of their own prior choices as well as the difficulties of adapting to a completely unfamiliar world. And as things heat up, with various characters accused of involvement in the mysterious death, Jayne's extrasensory ability becomes ever more important to the survival of her community even as it undermines her already rocky relationship with her spouse.  Karen Swan is the bestselling author of twenty-eight novels to date, most recently The Midnight Secret and All I Want for Christmas.  C. P. Lesley is the author of two historical fiction series set during the childhood of Ivan the Terrible and four other novels. Her Song of the Steadfast (Songs of Steppe & Forest 6) appeared in June 2025. Learn more about your ad choices.
