This week of Deck the Hallmark is presented by "A Tyler Shaw Christmas". Listen to this amazing Christmas album HERE. ---Brian returns to review the second Hallmark Christmas movie of the week: Tidings for the Season.ABOUT TIDINGS FOR THE SEASONA serious TV newscaster's life changes when he meets his young superfan and the boy's hardworking single mom. As he embraces positive holiday stories, romance blooms — but a career opportunity forces him to choose between ambition and love.AIR DATE & NETWORK FOR TIDINGS FOR THE SEASONNovember 16 2025 | Hallmark ChannelCAST & CREW OF TIDINGS FOR THE SEASONTamera Mowry-Housley as LucyB.J. Britt as Adam KadeElijah-Justus Lewis as RobbieBRAN'S TIDINGS FOR THE SEASON SYNOPSISThe movie kicks off with Lucy and her son Robbie watching the news—well, really Robbie is watching because he wants to be a news anchor when he grows up. Lucy, on the other hand, hates the news, specifically news anchor Adam Kade.Lucky for Robbie, he's going on a field trip to the station. He ditches his group to sit next to Adam and do some “bits.” Adam is confused, but the rest of the news crew loves it. Robbie even tells Adam he needs to work on smiling and sharing good news, and encourages him to try to get viewers to come around more.Luckily, Robbie leaves his folder at the station with his address on it. Adam goes to return it—and ends up asking if Robbie wants to shadow him at the station for a week. He's unsure at first, but he ends up taking a liking to Robbie—and a different kind of liking to Lucy.At the end of the week, Adam talks to Lucy about what it would take for her to start watching the news. She says they need more good news—and that he needs to wear more color. Since he thinks she's hot, Adam takes her advice to heart. He shops for a red jacket, bumps into Lucy and Robbie, and agrees to help with the Angel Wish Toy Drive funded by Thrivent Financial. He decides to do a story on it, thinking it's the uplifting kind Lucy wants—but his producer says no, it's too happy.Adam pushes back and goes with the story anyway, angering his boss. He takes some time off, which he spends with Lucy and Robbie. They go pick out a Christmas tree, decorate it, and sparks fly.Soon, Adam gets a call from his boss: his happy story is crushing it online. They want more. So Adam starts reporting only happy stories—like one about a retired art teacher decorating trees in the woods to win back his long-lost love.Feeling good about himself and his job, Adam asks Lucy out. Their date ends with a kiss—but is cut short when he gets a call about a Chicago interview tomorrow. Lucy overhears and is upset. Has this all been about his promotion? She's sad for herself but mad for Robbie.On the night of Robbie's school Christmas concert, just as it's ending, Adam comes running in and says, “ONE MORE THING!” He lets Robbie interview him, and it ends with Robbie asking what's next for Adam's career. He says he's staying put. Lucy comes up, and they kiss. Watch the show on Youtube - www.deckthehallmark.com/youtubeInterested in advertising on the show?

Noirvember 2025 keeps rolling as Mike teams up with author Dahlia Schweitzer and artist Rahne Alexander to crack open V.I. Warshawski (1991), Jeff Kanew's glossy, big-city take on Sara Paretsky's groundbreaking detective. Kathleen Turner commands the screen as V.I., whose night on the town swerves into murder, a dead former Blackhawks star, and a teenager who refuses to stay out of danger.This episode brings together an incredible lineup: Sara Paretsky, creator of the V.I. Warshawski novels; screenwriters David Aaron Cohen, Nick Thiel, and Warren Leight; and director Jeff Kanew. They share the inside story of adapting an iconic literary detective, shaping Turner's formidable on-screen persona, and navigating the film's winding path from page to screen.Along the way, we dig into Chicago's cinematic grit, the film's place in early-'90s studio genre filmmaking, and—yes—we spoil who killed Boom Boom and finally reveal what the initials V. I. actually stand for.Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-projection-booth-podcast--5513239/support.Become a supporter of The Projection Booth at http://www.patreon.com/projectionbooth

Over the past two decades, the artist Theaster Gates has poured himself into his multifaceted practice that spans pottery, painting, sculpture, urban development, performance, archival research, and arts administration. Along the way, he has risen to become one of the most widely celebrated figures in the world of art, transforming abandoned, dormant buildings in Chicago's Grand Crossing neighborhood, on the city's South Side, into dynamic third spaces for social, cultural, and spiritual communion; linking his hometown of Chicago with Japan, where in 2004 he trained with master potters in the coastal city of Tokoname and has maintained a deep connection ever since; and effectively rescuing, recontextualizing, and resuscitating culturally significant archives.On this episode of Time Sensitive, our latest “site-specific” recording, Gates sits down with Spencer inside his personal library in Chicago to talk about his current exhibition, “Unto Thee,” at the University of Chicago's Smart Museum of Art (on view through Feb. 22, 2026); his forward-looking vision for his latest project, The Land School, which he and his Rebuild Foundation have reshaped into an arts incubator; and the vast, alchemic impacts of music on his life and work.Special thanks to our Season 12 presenting sponsor, Van Cleef & Arpels.Show notes: Theaster Gates[1:21] Dorchester Art and Housing Collaborative[5:07] The Land School (2025)[7:30] St. Laurence Elementary School[7:42] Solange Knowles[9:07] Stony Island Arts Bank[9:07] Rebuild Foundation[9:07] Black Cinema House[9:07] The Listening House[13:06] Jane Addams[13:06] Jane Jacobs[13:06] Jesse Jackson[13:23] Frederick Law Olmsted[13:23]  Huey P.

Tore describes today's events within the hallowed halls of the Chicago circuit court. However unlikely, It was a good day for America and election integrity.

Today, we're thinking about Marcyliena Morgan, a keeper extraordinaire, a linguistic anthropologist who founded and championed the Hip Hop Archive at Harvard. Marcyliena Hazel Morgan was born in Chicago, May 8, 1950 and passed away September 28, 2025. We were fortunate to interview her in 2018 as part of the opening story in our NPR series The Keepers, about activist archivists, rogue librarians, curators, collectors and historians. Keepers of the culture and the cultures and collections they keep. Guardians of history large and small, protectors of the free flow of information and ideas. Individuals who take it upon themselves to preserve some part of our cultural heritage. Marcyliena Morgan was all that and more. Our story delves into the the founding of the Hip Hop Archive and Research Institute at Harvard by Dr. Morgan and Professor Henry Louis Gates Jr. to “facilitate and encourage the pursuit of knowledge, art, culture, scholarship and responsible leadership through Hiphop.”You'll hear from Professor Morgan, Professor Gates, Nas, Patrick Douthit aka 9th Wonder, an array of Harvard archivists and students studying at the archive as well as the records, music and voices being preserved there. We've also included more of our original interview with Dr. Morgan. The Kitchen Sisters Present is produced by The Kitchen Sisters (Davia Nelson & Nikki Silva) with Nathan Dalton and Brandi Howell. We're part of the Radiotopia Network from PRX.

NYPost reporter Miranda Devine drops a lengthy story written around a whistleblower who claims Thomas Crooks made an abrupt political 180 and went from Trump lover to Trump hater, and that the FBI should have been all over his unhinged social media history... which included 17 different accounts. Trump hints that former FBI director Chris Wray's indictment may be next. Chicago's poorest and most dangerous neighborhoods get slapped with monster property tax increases.

Alders rejected Mayor Brandon Johnson's proposal to reinstate Chicago's corporate head tax to raise roughly $100 million annually. Chicago previously had a head tax from 1973-2014, when then-Mayor Emanuel eliminated it. Now the proposal to reverse course remains one of the biggest hurdles to passing next year's $16.6 billion budget. We're discussing the support and opposition in the City Council. Plus, National Guard troops may be leaving Chicagoland, and the area's holiday markets are ready for their comeback.   Good News: Invisible Institute event on 11/20 Want some more City Cast Chicago news?

Dylan recaps his brutal post-"ATC meltdown" commute and rants about the GA ban at 12 major airports while Max counters with cub flying and Chicago layover tips (including a dangerously spicy El Chingón).

Healing, Love, and Awakening The story of reconciling with his father, opening the door to love, and experiencing the miracle of meeting the “dream daughter” who appeared in his life exactly as foretold in dreams.

We believe all neighborhoods deserve to be covered in a meaningful way.We amplify positive stories, cover development and local school council meetings and serve as watchdogs in neighborhoods often ostracized by traditional news media.Ground-level coverageOur neighborhood-based reporters don't parachute in once to cover a story.

We aim to change that by celebrating our neighborhoods and chronicling the resilience of the people who fight every day to make Chicago a better place for all.

With Trump's warnings and tactical responses under the microscope, listeners get a front-row seat to the shadow war unfolding on both sides of the border.
