Send us a textMany of us want the holiday season to be a time of connection and celebration, but this time of year can also be complicated. Family gatherings can come with unspoken tension, old dynamics resurface, expectations rise, and the pressure to “keep the peace” can collide with our deep desire to protect and affirm our kids. And for some, this season can bring loneliness, depression, or grief—not warmth. We know you're navigating all of that. And you don't have to do it alone. Today In the Den, Sara is joined by therapist David Zealy-Wright to talk honestly about what the holidays can stir up, how to prepare for tough conversations, how to set boundaries with love, how to care for ourselves while caring for our kids, and how to find moments of joy and grounding even in challenging spaces.Special Guest: David Zealy-WrightDavid is a Licensed Professional Counselor (Licensed Clinical Mental Health Counselor), a Licensed Clinical Addictions Specialist, and a Clinical Supervisor Intern(Certified Clinical Supervisor).

Arts, media and culture with Norman B.

In this episode of Big Blend Radio's "World of Art Podcast," artist and art historian Victoria Chick launches a new series exploring the Evolution of Art Materials, beginning with a deep dive into artist brushes and bristles. The conversation traces the journey of artist tools from ancient times to contemporary practice, examining how natural and synthetic materials have shaped painting techniques across cultures and centuries. Victoria discusses the tactile relationship between artists and their tools, why painters often remain loyal to familiar materials, and how technological advancements continue to influence artistic expression. Listeners are invited to appreciate the craftsmanship, history, and experimentation behind the brushes artists use—and how understanding materials deepens our connection to art history itself.

L'Institut Giacometti à Paris aime confronter les œuvres d'artistes contemporains avec celles du sculpteur auquel le musée est dédié. En ce moment, les peintures de l'artiste syrien Marwan, décédé en 1972, dialoguent avec les sculptures du Suisse Alberto Giacometti. Les artistes partagent une même obsession pour la figure humaine qu'on retrouve dans les œuvres. Une exposition qui prend place dans le très bel hôtel particulier où s'est établi le musée entre art nouveau et art déco. L'exposition Giacometti / Marwan Obsessions, c'est au musée Giacometti jusqu'au 25 janvier 2026.   Dès l'entrée de l'exposition, on est accueilli par trois peintures grand format de Marwan représentant des figures. Elles font face à des têtes et bustes de Giacometti. « Ce qui a suscité notre envie, c'étaient les grandes têtes de la fin de l'œuvre de Marwan, qui, bien sûr, évoquaient un certain écho avec la façon dont Giacometti, lui aussi, faisait des bustes, des têtes et s'est attaché à la figure humaine pendant une très très grande partie de sa carrière », explique Françoise Cohen, co-commissaire de l'exposition.  Marwan met en avant dans sa peinture des humains anti-héros. Des êtres fragiles, silhouettes androgynes, se tenant parfois dans un coin du tableau, délaissant la place centrale. Ils font ainsi naturellement pendant aux sculptures diaphanes toutes en longueur de Giacometti. Les deux artistes sont reliés aussi par leur rapport à la matière.  « Giacometti est connu pour utiliser le plâtre de façon complètement personnelle, un peu comme de la terre. C'est-à-dire, qu'il va ajouter des parcelles de plâtre. Quand on est proche, on voit bien la trace de ses doigts. Dans l'oeuvre de Marwan, les tableaux sont souvent des huiles sur toile. Avec une certaine transparence, on a comme ça une construction de touches, les unes au-dessus des autres. Sans que la matière soit très très épaisse, mais qui montre une construction dans le temps », raconte Françoise Cohen. Et si Marwan a fait toute sa carrière à Berlin où il s'est établi, il est toujours en lien avec son pays. Il peint les intellectuels syriens, mais aussi son ami le poète irakien Badr Chaker el Sayyab. Quant à sa ville Damas, c'est une source continuelle d'inspiration, notamment dans les visages-paysages où l'abstraction est un leurre. « Le visage est étalé comme un paysage, dans lequel il incite le spectateur à rentrer. Pour lui, il s'exprime en disant, que toutes les bosses, les volumes qui apparaissent pour rendre les cheveux, le front, etc, sont en fait les reliefs, les collines de la ville de Damas, sa ville d'origine », précise la co-commissaire de l'exposition. Une peinture puissante qui nous happe et qui dialogue avec beaucoup de justesse avec les sculptures de Giacometti. Les deux artistes ayant en partage une quête constante de la condition humaine, vulnérable et fragile.

Why Dec. 25? Why so much Christmas conflict & controversy in Christianity's history? Why is Christmas so important to Christianity? And to America? In this episode, I ask my guest, Dr. Carey Roberts, the following questions: ►Why is Christmas such a grand celebration? What does this tell us about Christianity? ►Did it take a while for Christmas to take a central role in Christianity►What's the difference between recognition and celebration of Christmas►Did Christmas piggyback on existing Roman pagan traditions? ►How did Christmas enter America's culture? If not the Puritans, then which immigrant group introduced Christmas to America? ►Were there any regional differences in the celebration of Christmas?►When did U.S. businesses begin to capitalize on Christmas? ►Would President Grant have witnessed a similar Christmas celebration in Boston and Savannah? ►Would George Washington recognize our Christmas? How about Andrew Jackson? Abraham Lincoln? Teddy Roosevelt? ►What happened to Christmas after WWII? ►Is it a bad thing that non-Christians and/or non-practicing Christians celebrate Christmas? ⁠

Does "neutral secularism" exist? Why are some beliefs welcomed in the public square, but Christianity is disqualified? In this final episode of The Narrative before Christmas, Aaron, David, and Mike react to the Cincinnati Enquirer investigative profile that called CCV "relentless" for turning Christian beliefs into public policy. Marketed as an objective report, the article instead exposes a familiar assumption: Christian beliefs are inherently biased and therefore unwelcome in the public square, while non-Christian belief systems are presumed neutral and free to shape law, culture, and power. After the news, Luke Niforatos of Smart Approaches to Marijuana exposes what’s really happening behind the scenes with legalized marijuana. An early Christmas gift to Big Weed, President Trump's executive order hands the marijuana industry a massive $2 billion tax break, turbocharges advertising to kids, and further normalizes a drug that is more potent, more addictive, and more destructive than most Americans realize. The conversation is a glaring reminder that policies shape behavior. Christians cannot afford to sit this one out while the profit-driven drug industry destroys America. More About Luke Niforatos Luke Niforatos serves as the Executive Vice President of Smart Approaches to Marijuana (SAM) and is widely recognized as one of the nation’s leading drug policy experts. Leveraging more than a decade working on drug, addiction and health care issues, Luke drives the strategy behind SAM’s federal, state, and educational initiatives.

Actor Tim Blake Nelson is known for his work in "O Brother Where Art Thou," "Watchmen" and most recently, "The Lowdown." In addition to his work as a playwright, photographer, director and filmmaker, his second novel, Superhero, a satire about the Hollywood industry of blockbuster films, is available now.

25 years ago this month, the Coen brothers' Americana Odyssey "O Brother, Where Art Thou" was released in theaters. While the movie saw a paucity of award recognition, its soundtrack managed to land a Grammy for Album of the Year, giving rise to a major revival of American roots and bluegrass music in the mainstream. Music writer Allison Hussey discusses the soundtrack and its legacy as part of our Silver Liner Notes series, and listeners share their feelings about the film, and the soundtrack.

Though it had a relatively quiet 1955 release, the klezmer album Tanz!, from Dave Tarras and the Musiker Brothers, is now considered a landmark of the genre. On the new album, Michael Winograd Plays Tanz! Live In New York City, Michael Winograd celebrates its legacy. He and his band will perform a few pieces live and talk about the album's influence on him, and preview a show Thursday evening at the Center for New Jewish Culture.
