Today is an update on 2 of our brilliant guests and the powerful art they are putting out into the world. In episode 128 we interviewed Kristin Marrs and Anne Marie Nest about a theatre/dance piece they created called Chalk, which is about both of their journeys through miscarriage and infertility. These amazing women have been busy in the last year because they developed the piece into a full length show that opened in Denver last weekend, and will open in Iowa City for 4 shows at the James next weekend, March 21-24. Tickets can be found at http://www.thejamesic.com. In today's episode we: Hear about how Anne Marie & Kristin met during their challenges with infertility and multiple miscarriages, and how this eventually led to creative collaboration and birthing of a new piece of art. The process of creating this piece, and the magic of how it all came together when they set the intention of “this can be easy”. Ancestral patterning, and stories of women that came before Anne Marie and Kristin that had challenges with child bearing. The infertility journey that both women experienced,  including all the ups and downs, the limits of the medical system, and the deep, hidden grief and shame. Why the topic of infertility and miscarriage has been so  “silenced” in our culture. Why we need these stories more than ever in our current political arena when so many women are having challenges receiving the health care they need. Bios: Iowa native Kristin Marrs is a dancer, choreographer, and movement teacher. She is an Associate Professor of Instruction and Director of Graduate Studies at the University of Iowa Department of Dance, where she teaches a wide variety of courses across the dance and somatic curriculum. She is also a certified Alexander Technique teacher, and has a private studio in Iowa City where she works with students of all ages and abilities in improving alignment, breathing, postural tone, and ease of movement. She is a proud mama of two kids.  www.kristinmarrs.com Anne Marie Nest-Pinero met Kristin at the University of Iowa while she was professor of voice and speech in the Theater Department. Prior to her career in academia, Anne Marie was a professional actor, working primarily in regional theaters and Shakespeare Festivals.  Anne Marie now works as an executive coach and communications consultant for the Fortune 500 and AM Law 200.  She is an Associate Teacher of Fitzmaurice Voicework, trained mediator through Columbia University, and certified CTI coach. www.annemarienest.com Past Episodes You Might Like About Women's Health, Medical Systems & Well-Being   Episode 122:  Nina Lohman: The Body Alone: A Lyrical Articulation of Pain Episode 105: Kate O'Donnell: Ayurveda for Women's Health Episode 99: Cate Stillman: The Witch's Cancer Journal  Episode 88: Sam Ferm-LeClere: Healing with Chronic Illness Episode 37: Can We Trust Other Women and Their Bodily Autonomy Seasoned Wisdom Date: April 1st, 11am – 1pm Come soak up the wisdom that only comes from age…A signature event of the Water Bearer Collective in partnership with the Tend HER Wild Podcast.

Episode 215: Meth-associated HFrEF.   Abishak and Zat (medical students) explain the cardiotoxic effect of methamphetamine and the diagnosis and treatment of heart failure with reduced ejection fraction (HFrEF). Dr. Arreaza adds insight into the reversibility of meth-associated HFrEF.   Written by Abishak Govindarajan, MSIV and Zat Akbar Shaw. American University of the Caribbean. Edits and comments by Hector Arreaza, MD. Welcome Dr. Arreaza: Welcome to Rio Bravo qWeek. My name is Hector Arreaza, family physician, faculty and associate program director of the Clinica Sierra Vista/Rio Bravo Family Medicine Residency Program. Today we will explore heart failure with reduced ejection fraction, a high-yield and clinically relevant topic in medicine. We will discuss the role of methamphetamine use in the development of HFrEF. This is a pressing issue because about 0.8% of the population 12 and older in the US reported using methamphetamine within the past 12 months in 2024 (National Survey on Drug Use and Health, NSDUH), that's about ≈2.4 million people!We are joined by two aspiring physicians who will help explore this topic. By the way, we will refer to methamphetamine in this episode as “meth”. [Abishak and Akbar introduce themselves] Abishak: [Introduce yourself] The role of meth in HFrEF Dr. Arreaza: Meth is a growing problem in many places, including Bakersfield, where we live. Meth is also known as Meth Crystal, Poor man's cocaine, Ice, Glass, Crank, Speed, Chalk, and Tina. How does meth contribute to the development of HFrEF? Abishak: So, first, let's understand how methamphetamine works. It has a chemical structure similar to dopamine and norepinephrine, and it gets taken up through the neuron transporter proteins. Once it enters the synaptic vesicles (storage sacs for neurotransmitters), it displaces and forces the release of large amounts of dopamine, norepinephrine, and serotonin into the synapse (the space between neurons). Additionally, meth blocks the reuptake of those neurotransmitters into the neuron, ensuring they remain in the synapse for a prolonged period. All this causes a downstream effect of increased sympathetic pathways in the body. Diagnosis Dr. Arreaza: The diagnosis starts with collecting a good history and performing a complete physical exam, and then we confirm with an echocardiogram.  Abishak: Yes, diagnosis requires both symptoms consistent with heart failure and objective evidence of reduced ejection fraction. Echocardiography is the primary diagnostic tool. We also measure BNP. In certain cases, cardiac MRI is used to evaluate myocardial fibrosis and exclude infiltrative or inflammatory etiologies. Coronary angiography may be performed if ischemic disease is suspected.Guideline-Directed Medical Therapy Dr. Arreaza: GDMT Guideline-Directed Medical Therapy started around 1987 when ACE inhibitors were proven to improve mortality in patients with heart failure. Then, during the following decades, many medications have been added to GDMT. Until around 2019–2022 we came out with the main 4 groups of medications that we know as GDMT. Let's talk about GDMT. Akbar: There are four core pillars in GDMT. First, an angiotensin receptor-neprilysin inhibitor, such as sacubitril with valsartan (Entresto), is preferred over ACE inhibitors when tolerated. This medication reduces mortality and heart failure hospitalizations. Second, evidence-based beta blockers including carvedilol, metoprolol succinate, or bisoprolol are used to reduce sympathetic overactivity and improve ventricular remodeling. Third, mineralocorticoid receptor antagonists such as spironolactone or eplerenone reduce fibrosis and improve survival. The Fourth pillar is SGLT2 inhibitors such as dapagliflozin or empagliflozin, which provide significant reductions in heart failure hospitalizations and cardiovascular mortality, regardless of diabetes status. Abishak: Other main parts of the treatment are diuretics, which are used for symptom control but do not reduce long-term mortality. Dr. Arreaza: As a recap: The current 4 pillars of GDMT are: ARNI/ACEi + β-blocker + MRA + SGLT2i)  Beta Blocker Considerations Dr. Arreaza: Sometimes we may be concerned about using beta blockers in active meth users. What did you read about it? Abishak: Historically, there was concern about unopposed alpha stimulation. However, in chronic heart failure, beta blockers remain essential. Carvedilol is often favored because it provides both alpha and beta blockade. Careful titration and close monitoring are critical.Reversibility and Remodeling Dr. Arreaza: Regarding meth-associated HFrEF, we have good news for meth users. Tell us about how reversible this condition is.  Akbar: It can be reversible. One of the most important aspects of this condition is that significant reverse remodeling may occur if the patient stops methamphetamine use and adheres to medical therapy. The Left ventricular ejection fraction can improve substantially and, in some cases, normalize. On the other end of the spectrum, continued meth use may lead to progressive fibrosis, ventricular dilation, and potentially irreversible damage, leading to death.Complications of meth-associated HFrEF Abishak: These patients are at increased risk for ventricular arrhythmias, sudden cardiac death, left ventricular thrombus formation, and progressive pulmonary hypertension. If the ejection fraction remains below 35 percent after at least three months of optimized therapy, implantable cardioverter-defibrillator (known as ICD) placement should be considered for primary prevention.Addiction Treatment as Core Therapy Dr. Arreaza: It sounds like GDMT cannot be done without talking about meth use disorder treatment. Akbar: Absolutely. Treating the myocardium without addressing the substance use disorder is ineffective. Primary care providers can be trained to manage addictions, but if resources are available, you can place a referral to addiction medicine, psychiatric support, behavioral therapy, and social support services. This is an essential part of the treatment. Sustained abstinence is the single most powerful predictor of recovery.Prognosis Abishak: Prognosis is highly dependent on abstinence. Patients who stop using methamphetamine often experience meaningful improvement in EF and even return to normal.  Dr. Arreaza: Yes, the key factor is complete abstinence, plus standard heart failure treatment. If the damage is mostly functional and inflammatory, recovery is possible. If there is extensive fibrosis (scar) recovery is less likely. Observational studies have shown that patients with meth-associated cardiomyopathy who stop using meth have significant improvement in EF over 3–12 months, fewer hospitalizations, and lower mortality. Akbar: Absolutely. Not all meth-associated cardiomyopathy behaves the same way. The extent of fibrosis determines recovery potential. Cardiac MRI with late gadolinium enhancement can help us estimate scar burden. Patients with minimal fibrosis often have better improvement with abstinence and medical therapy. Dr. Arreaza: So, MRI can actually help us determine the prognosis. Abishak: Yes, very much so. If MRI shows extensive fibrosis, the likelihood of full EF recovery is lower. That information helps us counsel patients more accurately. Akbar: Another key issue is right ventricular involvement. Methamphetamine can affect both ventricles. When the right ventricle fails, patients may develop severe peripheral edema, ascites, and hepatic congestion. Right ventricular dysfunction also worsens prognosis significantly. Dr. Arreaza: And pulmonary hypertension can also worsen the whole picture.  Akbar: That's correct. Meth is associated with pulmonary arterial hypertension independently of left-sided heart failure. In some patients, you may see a combined picture of both pulmonary vascular disease and right ventricular dysfunction. That can make management more complicated because pulmonary pressures may remain elevated even after EF improves. Dr. Arreaza: Tells us about the role of BNP in monitoring these patients.  Abishak: Serial BNP levels can help track response to therapy. Additionally, troponin may be elevated at times in meth users due to myocardial injury. Monitoring renal function is critical because many heart failure medications affect kidney function and potassium levels. Akbar:Other lifestyle modifications include sodium restriction, regular follow-ups, vaccination, and avoidance of other cardiotoxic substances such as alcohol or cocaine. Sleep disorders, especially OSA, should be evaluated because untreated OSA worsens heart failure outcomes. Dr. Arreaza: WhatIs there any role for wearable devices or remote monitoring? Abishak: Yes, increasingly so. Remote weight monitoring, blood pressure tracking, and symptom reporting can reduce hospitalization. In select patients, implantable hemodynamic monitors may help detect rising filling pressures before symptoms occur. Dr. Arreaza: It was a great discussion. Thank you, Abishak and Akbar for bringing all that valuable information to us. Let's wrap it up.     

This month we're featuring a special guest episode from our friends at MIT Open Learning's Chalk Radio. Host Sarah Hansen sits down with Professor of Finance at the MIT Sloan School of Management and CSAIL PI Andrew Lo for a wide-ranging conversation about money, learning, and making financial advice accessible to everyone. Andrew Lo explains why he believes finance is a language we all need to speak and that an advanced math degree is not required to be successful. Exploring how money quietly shapes nearly every path we take, Professor Lo reflects on his work with MIT OpenCourseWare which reached millions of learners worldwide and why breaking down “impenetrable” financial concepts has become central to his mission. And of course, he tackles the timely question: Should you use ChatGPT to plan your retirement? For many people, hiring a financial advisor might be a financial impossibility, but Professor Andrew Lo and his colleagues are working to develop an AI financial advisor that not only gives ordinary people access to sound financial advice, but ultimately acts with the best interest of the user. Andrew Lo is the faculty director of FinTechAI@CSAIL, a research initiative with CSAIL Alliances. https://cap.csail.mit.edu/members/initiatives/fintechaicsail Find episodes, listener discounts, meet the host, and more: https://csail.mit.edu/podcast For more episodes from Chalk Radio: https://chalk-radio.simplecast.com/ Connect with CSAIL Alliances: On our site: cap.csail.mit.edu/about-us/meet-our-team On LinkedIn: linkedIn.com/mit-CSAIL License: Creative Commons BY-NC-SA #CSAIL #ChalkRadio #FinancialEconomics #FinTech #AIandFinance #PersonalFinance #LifelongLearning

0:00 - The Nuggets had a chance to win, but fell short of beating the Pistons last night at Ball Arena. It is what is it. Chalk it up to the travel debacle where they couldn't get out of Memphis. They sat on the tarmac for ages, and made it back to Denver less than 24 hours until tip. It is what it is. But, one positive takeaway: Jamal Murray was very open and honest in his postgame presser. He actually took responsibility for his mistakes instead of being flippant and dismissive with the media. 15:02 - The Law Firm of Payton and Paton addressed the media to wrap up the season. Even though they reached the AFC Championship, this team needs to make some adjustments in the offseason. Both Payton and Paton understand that.34:05 - Right now, the Broncos have Bo Nix dirt cheap on his rookie contract. They HAVE to capitalize on this window. How will Sean and George maximize their opportunities before they have to pay Bo?

Chalk this one up to making myself do something when I was not sure I had it in me. Have you accomplished something even though you were not feeling it that day? I bet you have. And I bet that you, too, benefited from having willed yourself into action. This episode is one of those examples for me. After a full day of interviewing artists and staff at the fall 2025 Albino Skunk Music Festival, I was ready for bed, but I gathered up just enough resolve to wait past midnight to interview The Ruen Brothers. It was the first interview I have conducted that late — the time stamp on the audio file of our conversation reads 1:37AM — but it was well worth it. I hope you agree upon hearing this episode.

Week 16 Recap: Darin's Hot Hand and Ed's Christmas ConundrumThe NFL season is winding down, and the stakes for the "Big Bold Predictions" segment are higher than ever. Darin Hayes and Ed Kleese met to review a highly dramatic Week 16, which featured incredible comebacks, upsets, and holiday chaos, before gearing up for Week 17.Week 16: Darin's Strong ShowingDarin had a strong performance, netting 5 points, primarily due to correctly calling the close, high-stakes victory for the Seahawks over the Rams and, more impressively, the Bears upsetting the Packers. Darin earned high praise for predicting Caleb Williams would lead the Bears to a late-game win, which he did via an incredible overtime touchdown after a muffed onside kick.Ed, unfortunately, only secured 2 points for the week, which came entirely from also picking the Seahawks. He missed on the Bears and the Patriots upsetting the Ravens (a one-point partial credit for Darin). Both hosts expressed disappointment over the Colts' defense failing to back up Philip Rivers' valiant "Disney story" effort to upset the 49ers.The scoring left Darin leading with 77 total points to Ed's 74 as they moved into the final two weeks of the regular season.The Lions Controversy and Holiday DramaThe review concluded with a deep dive into the controversial final play of the Lions-Steelers game, where an offensive pass interference call on Amon-Ra St. Brown nullified a dramatic, potential game-winning lateral. The main focus, however, quickly shifted to the upcoming holiday schedule.Ed expressed anxiety about his team, the Commanders, playing the Cowboys on Christmas Day. Stating that he has “matured,” Ed claimed he would ignore the noon kick-off to focus on family, a statement Darin immediately declared his first Bold Prediction for the week: "Your family's going to call BS on this and you will be caught."Week 17 Predictions: Pending the PicksThe hosts transitioned to making their official Week 17 game picks. However, the discussion ended immediately after Darin's non-game prediction about Ed's impending holiday conflict. The suspense hangs in the air: who will gain ground in the final week of the fantasy regular season? We await the actual game-by-game predictions from Darin and Ed that will determine their final standings.Chalk, Upsets, and Double-Digit Dominance: Ed and Darin's Wild Week 17 NFL PicksThe NFL playoff picture is tightening, and with high-stakes games dominating the schedule, our analysts, Ed Kleese and Darin Hayes, are stepping out with some truly aggressive predictions for Week 17. From packaged Christmas Day favorites to huge underdog victories, here is a breakdown of their boldest calls, which they are betting points on.Ed Kleese: The Favorite's AdvocateEd is betting heavily on the favorites to handle their business against injury-riddled teams, particularly on the holiday schedule.Christmas Day Chalk:Ed packaged his first pick, wagering thatall three heavy favoriteson Christmas Day—the Cowboys, the Lions, and the Broncos—will win their respective matchups easily against opponents using backup or third-string quarterbacks.Seahawks Roll the Panthers:He predicts that the Seattle Seahawks will have a comfortable road trip, beating the Carolina Panthersby 10 points or moreas they fight desperately to secure their spot in the NFC West race.Browns knock off SteelersNiners Dominance: On

Livestream chat, A gun goes click in a cramped Walmart loss prevention office—and everything that happens next becomes a quiet masterclass in officer safety, close-quarter decision-making, and restraint. We walk through the moment frame by frame: why a simple pat-down could have changed everything, how cooperation lulls even experienced cops into skipping steps, and why attacking the presented gun beat reaching for a holster when the room shrank to a few feet. Credit where it's due: an alert LP employee and quick-thinking officers likely prevented a deadly outcome. The charges? Think attempted murder—and think about the chain of small choices that got them there.From high-stakes to head-scratching, we unpack calls that shouldn't escalate. Sidewalk chalk that washes away isn't a public safety crisis; it's an opportunity to educate, warn, and move on. Same for plate frames and obstruction laws—if a reasonable person can read the state and number, straining the statute erodes trust and invites dropped cases. Sensible enforcement and clear laws do more for legitimacy than any press release. And when we talk about what truly protects kids, we draw a hard line: stop doxxing undercover units. Viral clout that outs ICAC teams doesn't “expose” anything—it teaches predators what to avoid and puts children at risk.We also analyze a Florida taser clip with nuance: back probes, clear commands, and post-compliance de-escalation suggest policy alignment, but necessity depends on context—paraphernalia risk, ground surface, suspect history, and officer fitness all matter. The recruiting debate lands where it should: set rigorous, relevant standards and hold everyone to them. Command presence flows from training, judgment, and team tactics, not height alone. If you want better policing, push for clear statutes, realistic training, and hiring that prioritizes character and skill—and use your voice. Body cams, de-escalation, crisis response, and pursuit reforms didn't appear out of nowhere; communities demanded them.If this breakdowsend us a message! twocopsonedonut@yahoo.comPeregrine.io: Turn your worst detectives into Sherlock Holmes, head to Peregrine.io tell them Two Cops One Donut sent you or direct message me and I'll get you directly connected and skip the salesmen.Support the showPlease see our Youtube channel https://www.youtube.com/c/TwoCopsOneDonut Join our Discord!! https://discord.gg/BdjeTEAc *Send us a message! twocopsonedonut@yahoo.com

I actually have coffee with me today!Today what we are going to be talking about is how you can celebrate Epiphany and some of y'all are going, I don't even know what you're talking about. What in the world is Epiphany? We're gonna talk about Epiphany, but what I want to do is give you some hands-on activities. I think I have eight or nine activities that you can use.Because really, when this is published, we are smack dab in the middle of Christmas and New Year's. But there is something much more important than New Year's and that is the Feast of Epiphany on January 6th. That is almost a week away from when this is going to be published.Let's talk about what Epiphany is, how it can affect your family, how you can raise your kids to understand it. Because let me tell you, I had no idea till my kids were almost in high school what Epiphany was, what that feast was, what that holiday was.Understanding the 12 Days of ChristmasEpiphany is 12 days after Christmas. Ah, 12 Days of Christmas! It is not 12 days before Christmas—they are after Christmas. The Catholic church has a great handle on this and I am a Protestant and raise my kids in a Protestant church. And we don't, and I would like to help make a change with that because we need to give our kids the best Christian heritage.They need to know their church history. They need to know their Christian heritage. And if we are only letting certain denominations do that, then we are doing a disservice to our children.One of the things I have been thinking about just this past week, because I went to visit my middle daughter and her two grandkids, was what could I send to both the grandkid families to celebrate Epiphany. In the past, I've actually made 12 paper bags, like little brown paper bags, nothing big, to celebrate the 12 Days of Christmas.Because if you don't know this, the 12 Days of Christmas have symbolism. You see, when it was written, people could not talk in public about Christ. So they wrote this song and they could sing the song because of the symbolism. Partridge in a pear tree—that's Jesus in the manger. The three French hens—that is God the Father, God the Son, and God the Holy Spirit. All 12 of them have significance. If you don't know what that is, then go and look. We've got a whole ebook about that and it'll be in the show notes.Celebrating the Wise Men's JourneyBut that is something I think is really important. What we want to focus on today is that 12th day, the day of Epiphany, the day we celebrate that the Wise Men followed the star and found Jesus. That was not in the manger. It was probably maybe a year or two later. And so we are going to celebrate that on January 6th.What are some things that you could do to celebrate that?Activity #1: Read and Study Matthew 2First of all, you could read Matthew 2:1-12. There are nine clues about what is that star. If you need help, you can get our Star of Bethlehem study guide—it is in the show notes as well.You could have your children copy all 12 verses. If they're young, one verse a day for 12 days. You could have them retell the story in their own words, narrate it back, or rewrite it in their own words. All of that based in Matthew 2:1-12.Activity #2: Crown and Star CraftsAnother thing is you could do some crafts. You can make a crown craft. Let me tell you, my grandkids love all of that! You could cut out a crown and let them decorate it with jewels and stickers and whatever, put it on their head. And they can be, if you have three of them, they can be the three wise men. Even one of them—we don't know that there were just three, there were just three gifts, so we assume there were three wise men.Another thing you could do is make a star ornament. And I will put a link in the show notes to some different star ornament things. It could be a black construction paper star and then put tissue paper inside of it with, what do you call that stuff, just a clear paper, and it will turn into a star stained glass. You can make a star out of foam and decorate it with glitter and jewels, whatever you want to do. There are lots of ways that you can make a star craft.Activity #3: Explore the Wise Men's GiftsNow let's move on. We've got: read the Bible first of all, number two: crafts. How about the Wise Men gifts? One of those gifts is frankincense. This is a bottle of frankincense oil. You could have your kids open it up, let them smell this. This is a healing oil, believe it. You may not believe in all the essential oils—this is a healing oil.Myrrh—I didn't grab my myrrh, I have a myrrh oil—but let them smell that. Talk about the difference in the smells. What is it used for? Do some research on how do you use frankincense, how do you use myrrh.Then the last gift is gold. Maybe do some research on the value of gold. How much does gold cost per ounce? What is the value of maybe a gold nugget? And start to bring it to real life today.Activity #4: Act Out the StorySo we've got: read the Bible, crafts, we've got the three wise men gifts. You could have them act out the story. Maybe the adults read Matthew 2 and the kids act it out. Or maybe they get their own figurines. All my kids have all the Fisher Price people and we've got stuffed ones out there, we got plastic ones, we got all sorts of figurines for our nativity sets. Let them use that and let them retell the story, act it out.Activity #5: Thought-Provoking QuestionsAnother thing might be just some thought-provoking questions. Here are three thought-provoking questions you could use:What do you think it was like to travel so far to see Jesus? You couldn't get in a plane, you couldn't get in a car or a train. You had to go by camel. What was that like? And let them talk about that.Why do you think the wise men brought gifts?How can we worship Jesus today?Those are just three quick questions. I'm sure there are plenty more, but those are some ones that you could use as you talk about this day of Epiphany.Activity #6: Explore Traditions Around the WorldMaybe look at what the traditions are around the world. In France, they have a king's cake and there's a ring inside that cake. Have a king's cake bake-off! Maybe let your kids all make cupcake king's cupcakes and have a bake-off and have a little judge who chooses first, second, third place.In Spain, they have parades. Do some research and see what are the other traditions for Epiphany around the world.Activity #7: Make Crown Cookies or SnacksAnother one of my favorite things, because it is food as we're talking about food, is to make some sugar cookies and cut them in the shape of a crown. I just bought this on Amazon years ago when I was having to do a lot of vacation Bible schools in the summertime and so I bought this.Another thing you could do besides, you could do it in sugar cookies and then use sprinkles to decorate it. I actually this past fall, we cut cheese in the shape of a crown and used grapes to decorate it. We cut the grapes up, or blueberries, I don't know what it was, some kind of fruit. That was the healthy version of a crown snack.Activity #8: Chalk the Door House BlessingAnother thing I just learned today is to have a house blessing. It is called Chalk the Door. Let's say there is a door here. You would write: 20+C+M+B+25. The 20 and the 25 are for 2025, that's the year we're in right now.What is CMB? Christus mansionem benedicat. That means "May Christ bless this dwelling." You could actually take chalk and put that above your front door. That is something they've been doing for years. And that would be something—maybe even look at what these words mean in Latin: Christus, mansionem, benedicat. And look those up and find out how it all relates to "May Christ bless this dwelling."Activity #9: The Feast of Epiphany with OrangesAnd then the last one, one of my favorites—I don't really have anything here to help you—but the Feast of Epiphany: use those little oranges, what are those little, uh, clementines, whatever, the little ones. My kids get them in their stocking all the time. Oranges represent light. Who is the light of the world? Jesus!And I have a whole blog post—I'm not going to go into it, you can go look at it—how you can create a Feast of Epiphany with a main dish, with an appetizer, with a fun dessert, yummy yummy, and then with the oranges as well. Because the oranges, open them up, they represent light.Start Simple and Build Your TraditionsSo those are just a few ways that you can celebrate Epiphany this year. None of them are extravagant. They are very simple, hands-on activities. You have almost a week—pick and choose one or two that you might want to do this year. And then next year you can do something different.Now for some of you, you're like, "I need a little more help." We have some resources! One is our Christmas Celebrations ebook. It tells what all 12 days are symbolized for and gives you some ideas about the Feast of Epiphany. We have our Star of Bethlehem Bible study for families, and so you can go through that. That Bible study is really more for Epiphany than it is for Christmas because it was the star the Wise Men followed to find Jesus.Also have a couple blog posts on Three Epiphany Traditions That We Did and our Italian Feast of Epiphany. So you can just look in the show notes to get all of those.If you have other ideas, leave a comment wherever you are! And if they don't let you leave comments, please leave a five-star review for us—that would mean the world to me. Hey, I'm Kerry Beck with Homeschool Coffee Break. We'll talk to you next time!

Indian Motorcycle has officially unveiled its 2026 lineup, marking what the industry calls a "cyclic year" — a season of refinements rather than revolutions. The big story is the debut of the Sport Scout RT, a bold new addition to the Scout family that bridges the gap between performance cruiser and light sport-tourer. With its 1250cc liquid-cooled engine producing 105 horsepower, moto-style bars, 19-inch front wheel, and locking hard bags, the Sport Scout RT delivers both aggression and practicality. Starting at $16,999 and available in Black Smoke, Sunset Red Metallic, and Chalk, it's the most performance-oriented Scout yet. SUPPORT US AND SHOP IN THE OFFICIAL LAW ABIDING BIKER STORE Beyond the new model, Indian's 2026 range sees fresh paint, updated graphics, and new accessories across its Scout, Chief, and Touring lines. The PowerPlus baggers and tourers continue largely unchanged, aside from color updates and new accessory options like handlebars, seats, luggage liners, and audio upgrades. While Indian continues to appeal to younger riders with modern tech and styling, the brand still lacks a truly low-cost entry model—a gap that could become crucial as the next generation of riders leans toward $6K–$8K machines. CHECK OUT OUR HUNDREDS OF FREE HELPFUL VIDEOS ON OUR YOUTUBE CHANNEL AND SUBSCRIBE! Overall, Indian's 2026 strategy focuses on refinement and appeal rather than reinvention. The Sport Scout RT is a standout move that adds excitement to the lineup, offering a stylish and capable option for riders who want performance without sacrificing comfort. As Indian and Harley-Davidson continue to battle for market share and younger customers, competition is fueling innovation—and that's great news for riders.
