Ye, masked entry turning unmasked frenzy, joined for "Through the Wire," "Can't Tell Me Nothing," "All of the Lights," "Heartless," "Runaway," "CARNIVAL"—their first stage since 2025 fallout, Scott dubbing him "brother" amid laughs and jumps.

Accused of trying to overturn the U.S. Presidential election in 2020? No worries. Trump is issuing pardons across the board for more than 75 co-defendants charged in connection with an election scheme in Georgia, including Rudy Giuliani, Sidney Powell, Boris Epshteyn, John Eastman and Mark Meadows. Cheating Americans out of having a voice appears to be totally forgivable. The Senate is taking action to move a deal forward that would end the longest US government shutdown in history. A small group of Senators from both parties involved in the talks managed to hammer out a compromise bill that rescinds the layoffs of some federal employees, but notably leaves out healthcare subsidies that were the point of the shutdown in the first place. Several House Democrats have already announced their opposition. Mo 'Kelly returns to sit in for Mark. He'll speak with iHeart TV & radio analyst Gary Dietrich about the particulars of this new Senate deal to end the shutdown and more.The Mark Thompson Show 11/10/25Patreon subscribers are the backbone of the show!

Rick Caruso was floated as the solution to revitalize Santa Monica's struggling 3rd Street Promenade, while the massive West Hollywood Carnival was crowned California's biggest Halloween party. Conway called out people stepping on dogs in upscale restaurants. Across the U.S., businesses like McDonald's are “rounding up” receipts as banks and retailers face a penny shortage due to the U.S. Mint halting production. Elex Michaelson previewed “The Story Is…” on CNN, featuring Mayor Karen Bass and comedian Matt Friend, with John Kobylt set to appear Monday. And the Dodgers face a must-win World Series matchup against Toronto.
Delta and Cape Air pilots narrowly avoided disaster at Boston's Logan Airport when one plane was cleared to land and another to take off on intersecting runways—coming within 0.73 miles of each other.

In Southern California, West Hollywood's massive Halloween Carnival gears up for a big night under perfect weather, featuring a hilarious Conway Halloween story and plenty of decorations. Downtown L.A. celebrates Halloween with actor Robert Englund—Freddy Krueger himself—getting a star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame. Officials also discuss new storage options for homeless RVs.

Send us a textThe gangway drops, the music hits, and we kick off a cruise-driven, faith-forward journey from Port Canaveral with one goal: make your time at sea effortless, joyful, and unforgettable. We introduce our duo—Captain Jesse and the Cruise Coach—and dive right into how to choose the best Florida homeport, from Miami's buzz to Tampa Bay's Skyway views, and why that first decision shapes your itinerary, budget, and onboard rhythm.We unpack the big Caribbean question—East, West, or South—and explain what each route delivers, from Cozumel tacos and Cayman reefs to longer Southern escapes like Aruba. Then we zoom in on the ships themselves: Utopia, Icon, and Star of the Seas redefine “floating city” with aqua theaters, two-tier promenades, solariums, and spa sanctuaries that rival land resorts. You'll hear smart, actionable tips: Boardwalk and Central Park balcony hacks on Oasis-class ships, the best ways to catch the AquaTheater (including from your own balcony), and complimentary breakfast windows that most guests miss.Competition is reshaping the industry for the better. We talk MSC's rise, why dry docks matter, and how more than fifty new ships on order will push design, dining, and entertainment forward. Private islands are leveling up too—think Perfect Day at CocoCay and Carnival's Celebration Key—making short sailings feel like full-on resort getaways. If you're a first-timer, we demystify gratuities, inclusions, and what “turn off your brain” truly means once you step aboard.Most of all, we're building community. Join our hosted group cruises to get concierge-style planning: curated excursions, dining guidance, show reservations, and flexible tracks for families, foodies, and adventurers. Link two ports in one vacation with Brightline rail, or bookend your sailing with Cocoa Beach sunsets and Orlando theme parks.

Send us a textNow in a nutshell, the history of Halloween and how it developed can be described in a few sentences. You see, Halloween originated from the ancient Celtic festival of Samhain, which marked the end of summer and the harvest, and the beginning of the dark, cold winter. The Celts believed that on the night of October 31st, the boundary between the worlds of the living and the dead became blurred, allowing spirits to return to Earth. They would light bonfires and wear costumes to ward off ghosts. Later, the Roman Empire combined Samhain with their own festivals, and as Christianity spread, the church established All Saints' Day on November 1st, making October 31st "All Hallows' Eve," or Halloween. In this episode,I would like to describe what I believe are the five best pieces of classical music associated with Halloween - in other words the scariest music.I would like to start - in each case after an introduction and description - with a beautiful piece of music by the great French composer Camille Saint-Saëns. This music is from a CD I did called FallingWater Dreams where I used basic midi files to start with, and do some arrangements of classical music. You know this was many years ago ago, because this was back in a time when basic midi files were not copyright. This selection is called Aquarium and is from the Carnival of Animals. In the spirit of this podcast episode, I think Aquarium has a beautiful, but extremely eerie quality about it - not the kind of hard-core horror that is associated with some upcoming pieces in this podcast episode. You could almost call aquarium to be creepy creepy. Again, first before playing each specific piece of music - and there should be five - I am going to make some comments about that piece of music, it's history, and in some cases = it's influences.Support the showThank you for experiencing Celebrate Creativity.

New episode out now! We went deep into our childhood memories and played the 1998 PC game Detective Barbie In the Mystery of the Carnival Caper! We talk about the straightforward nature of following clues in a linear fashion, get frustrated by Barbie walking slowly and getting stuck, discuss our shared (or not so shared) past with the game, and compare the point and click nature to Disco Elysium with surprising results. We also cover the character design archetypes, discover the ending is different every time, follow a mysterious shadowy figure, and ultimately realize this was a game for children. Katy was a cool rebellious preteen, Carrie has Madame Webb on the brain, Maddy has no patience, and Mack tries to share more Batman lore. We also get into video game design and development over the years, demonstrate the soundscapes we encountered, learn the nature of true love is fervent competition, and delve into why we love mysteries. Listen to hear more about tourist name souvenirs, jetskis, Paul Blart, dinosaurs, and rotational physics. (You will also hear a lot of Barbie imitations). Enjoy!TW: Sexism, discussion of neurodivergent tendencies
