The TMI guys ring in the holidays — and Jordan's birthday! – by going deep into 10 of their favorite (or, in some cases, least favorite) Christmas songs. You'll learn how that mind-melting David Bowie-Bing Crosby duet came to be (as well as the morbid events that followed) as well as the hilariously drunken shenanigans that unfolded on the set of Wham!'s "Last Christmas" video — plus the saga of George Michael's hair. Heigl shares his passion for jazz through the Vince Guaraldi 'Charlie Brown Christmas' soundtrack, in addition to the hilariously fast genesis of "Feliz Navidad" and the precocious brilliance of Brenda Lee and her deathless "Rockin' Around the Christmas Tree." And whatever you do, don't miss out on Jordan and Alex's battle over whether or not Paul McCartney's "Wonderful Christmastime" actually sucks. Merry Christmas to all, and to all a good fight!

From her humble beginnings in Georgia to becoming a global icon, Brenda's journey is one of resilience, talent, and timeless music.

But behind the chart-toppers lies a story of determination and a relentless drive to succeed. Join us as we explore her rise to stardom, her impact on the music industry, and the personal challenges she overcame along the way.

Brenda Lee spent the early years of her life in Georgia, and though her family didn't have a lot of money, they always made sure she had batteries to run the radio so she could listen to the Grand Ole Opry. Between that and singing at their Baptist church, her interest in music became clear, and her extraordinary talent became even clearer. She was still a kid when her mother moved the family to Missouri so she could be a part of a TV program called Ozark Jubilee, and she was signed to Decca Records soon after that. Over the next handful of years, she set a record for the number of top 10 hits by a woman, and she also recorded one of the most famous Christmas songs of all time when she was just 13 years old: “Rockin' Around the Christmas Tree.” Sid talks to Brenda about her own Christmas traditions, her friendships with artists like Tanya Tucker and the late Kris Kristofferson, and her thoughts on the increased prominence of women in music over the course of her long career.

For many of us, Christmas songs are dominating our playlists this week. There's the one you start hearing in October, Mariah Carey's "All I Want for Christmas Is You," Eartha Kitt's "Santa Baby," and the Christmas banger that went to number one last year, Brenda Lee's "Rockin' Around the Christmas Tree."Lee, now 80, recorded the song when she was 13. The living legend talked to NPR last year when her song — finally — hit number one. We revisit that conversation.

How good are you at predicting how things will turn out in your life? How often have you said, “If only I get this thing, I'll be happy...” or “If I lose my job, it will be a disaster…” . Generally, these kinds of predictions are wrong. Things often turn out much differently than we think they will. This episode begins by looking at why that happens. https://drhappy.com.au/2010/11/14/happiness-is-balancing-the-past-the-present-and-the-future/ Did you know that Nat King Cole's “The Christmas Song” was written on a hot summer day? Or that Brenda Lee was only 13 when she recorded “Rockin' Around the Christmas Tree”? These are just a few of the things you will discover as you listen to my guest Annie Zaleski. She is an editor and music journalist who is author of the book This Is Christmas, Song by Song: The Stories Behind 100 Holiday Hits (https://amzn.to/3ZomPBn) Reducing our reliance on fossil fuels requires us to develop new sources of energy. While solar, wind, lithium batteries and other energy sources are often described as “clean” energy, they are not as clean as you might think. These alternative energies require metals and those metals must be mined and/or recycled – both of which which cause serious damage to the environment that you don't often hear talked about. Joining me to explain why this should be a concern to every one is Vince Beiser. He is an award-winning journalist who has written for Wired, Harper's, The Atlantic, and the New York Times and he is author of the book, Power Metal: The Race for the Resources That Will Shape the Future (https://amzn.to/3Vqw42v). People used to blink more than they do now. You see, when you watch screens like your computer monitor, TV or cellphone, you tend not to blink as much. And there are consequences to that. Listen as I explain the problem and what you can do to help your eyes - since you are likely not blinking enough.

En los albores de la década de los 80’s surgió en Springfield, Missouri, el grupo The Morells. Capitaneados por el guitarrista D. Clinton Thompson y el bajista Lou Whitney se convirtieron en pioneros a la hora de recuperar todos los estilos del rock’n’roll de raíces. Músicos virtuosos de espíritu lúdico, su único álbum en aquellos días, “Shake and Push” (1984), los convirtió en banda de culto y nombre referente para los amantes de estos sonidos. Sale ahora a la luz un segundo disco, “You’re gonna hurt yourself” (Sound Asleep), grabado hace 40 años pero guardado en un cajón. Fíate de nosotros. Ponte cómodo, dale al play y disponte a disfrutar con una de las mejores bandas de bar de la historia.Playlist;(sintonía) D.

Brenda Lee Barron is passionate about sharing her love of clay. Brenda loves to make functional items (wheel and handbuilding) to be used at your table whether it's a meal for 1 or a gathering of 21. She is drawn to minimalist design because Brenda wants what you're serving to be showcased on the white speckled plates, platters and bowls. You'll sometimes find a touch of gold or a funky rim on her work. http://ThePottersCast.com/1066
