Welcome to Caching in the NorthWest! This is THE podcast from the birthplace of geocaching, right here in the great Pacific NorthWest.  It's Thursday at 7PM Pacific and we are going to talk about geocaches and geocachers from here and around the globe. So while you're spending quality time with your families, we will too! We want you to ask your hosts interesting questions. We are calling this, At LAST!, or Listeners Asked Some Things. Send an email to feedback@CachingNW.com, call into 253-693-TFTC. Call us with your feedback at (253) 693-TFTC Or visit the website at https://CachingNW.com

On this episode of the Five Heart Podcast, the hosts will take a long look at the upcoming Las Vegas Bowl match-up with the Utah Utes. It was announced on Friday that Utah's coach Kyle Whittingham was in the works to be the new head coach at the University of Michigan. Would Whittingham coach Utah in the bowl game? After that word was made public, allegedly several Utah players began opting out of the bowl game. They were going to play for the man who was going to step down from coaching. But if he's being poached to coach at a Big Ten school, maybe their fealty isn't required. Also, on Christmas, Nebraska received the commitment Christmas Wishes from Ahmad Hudson, a five-star and the number-one tight end in the country for the Class of 2027. So while there' still some of the 2025 season yet to play out, we can always look to the future. In fact, have you noticed that we as Husker fans tend to look at the past (though not as much as we are accused of doing) and to the future, but we don't always appreciate where we're at right now? We're staring at back-to-back bowl games after an eight year drought. There's a lot to be thankful for from a fan perspective. We are not where we once were, but we're definitely not at our lowest point, and we are heading in the right direction. Like Sawyer Brown sang: Well I hear something calling me Like I've never heard before. It's a red and white freight train And I want to get on board. GBR

This is the one conversation you need to hear before the year ends, because the way you think about money right now will shape how 2026 feels far more than any goal you set in January. So instead of rules or end-of-year pressure, Victoria and Bec share the five things they genuinely wish every person in this community would focus on before heading into 2026. These are the five big things that actually shape how money feels day to day, how confident you are making decisions, and how much energy you waste worrying about things that don’t even matter.In this ep:

In this segment, Marc "Moose" Malusis dives deep into the state of the New York Rangers as they head into the 2025 holiday season. Following a call from a long-time listener, Moose offers a searing critique of Chris Drury's roster management, arguing that the team has become "older, slower, and more expensive." The discussion heats up as Moose suggests the unthinkable: trading away superstar assets like Igor Shesterkin and Artemi Panarin to capitalize on their value before the core completely regresses. From the lack of homegrown development to the missed opportunities of recent trade deadlines, Malusis delivers a raw look at why the Rangers' championship window may have officially slammed shut.

Subscribe today for access to our full catalog of bonus episodes, including 2+ new episodes every month! www.patreon.com/boysbiblestudy This brand new installment in the HANK'S CHRISTMAS WISH series was released just a few weeks ago and adds a key legendary figure to the Hankiverse Christmas pantheon: Elvis. Directed by West Virginia's finest filmmaker, Jason Campbell, the yearly updates to the HANK'S CHRISTMAS WISH saga show the series becoming increasingly meta and disjointed. Although it's clear the HANK films are meant to be lighthearted, silly romps, as Campbell fanatics we found ourselves distracted by the confusing lore updates in this entry. For instance, is the titular character Hank actually an elf, or just a human who transracially identifies as one? The series long implied he had magical abilities, but HANK 3 reveals that Hank was a human orphan rescued by Santa as a boy. This unfortunately undercuts the entire plot of HANK 2, which focused heavily on racial tensions between elves and snowmen, a conflict that feels pointless if Hank is the Rachel Dolezal of elfdom. Elvis's relationship with Santa is even more bewildering. Flashbacks show Elvis living at the North Pole as the "third" of Santa and Mrs. Claus, yet when he appears in the present he is described as "a ghost." If ELVIS LIVES, as the title proudly announces, why would he be a ghost? Alive or dead, we're at least lucky Elvis is able to save Christmas. The central conflict involves a biker gang hired to bring "edge" to the town Christmas parade, who secretly plan to sabotage it by burning the tree and tearing down decorations. Gang leaders Slider and Onyx kidnap Hank, but Elvis appears to Slider and convinces him not to commit kristallnacht against Christians. This resolves the plot in roughly 25 minutes, leaving the rest of the film as random and inconsequential meditations on Christmas. Ultimately, HANK'S CHRISTMAS WISH 3 is refreshing because it is a Christian film more interested in having fun than evangelizing, but the confusing writing fries the brain instead of warming the heart.
