Legendary character, said to deliver gifts to children on Christmas Eve

La Misa es un drama, con un protagonista y un antagonista. Con un desarrollo del conflicto (del Génesis al Apocalipsis), con un clímax (la doble consagración), y con una victoria del protagonista (Cristo vence al demonio, a la muerte y al pecado). Participar en el drama de manera consciente (dándole el sentido sacrificial), activa (desde el corazón), y fructuosa (sabiendo que de ahí se siguen todos los bienes).
This edition of The Neil Haley Show opens with a Total Celebrity conversation with WWE Hall of Famer Mick Foley about his book Saint Mick: My Journey from Hardcore Legend to Santa's Jolly Elf. Neil, a former pro wrestler himself, thanked Foley for once steering him toward promoter Bert Prentice and the independent circuit early in his own career. Foley reflected on a run that exceeded even his own expectations, from grinding out a 58-minute match in front of just 25 people in Jonesboro, Arkansas, to stardom in WCW and the WWF, and shared the lesson that it is not the size of the crowd but the impact you have on the people in the room. That same conviction, he said, drives his six years portraying Santa Claus, and he told a moving story about a Christmas Eve visit to a young cancer patient on Long Island, whose transformation he ranked among the finest moments of his career. Foley explained that he wrote the book himself, partly for his children, and credited Stephanie McMahon with convincing him the offbeat, touching Christmas tale could reach beyond wrestling fans. He previewed his 20 Years of Hell tour, built around bringing that infamous match back to life. Find him at realmickfoley.com.Neil then turned to a J Len Sciuto Show simulcast, where the retired Coast Guard officer and thriller author offered his own geopolitical analysis, opening, as he noted, with a disclaimer that it is opinion and discussion drawn from public reporting rather than settled fact. He walked through his reading of tensions around Iran's nuclear program and a fortified mountain site near the Natanz facility, the risk of the Houthis widening the conflict, and the military scenarios he fears could follow, while also touching the Abraham Accords, the long U.S. history of regime-change operations, and rising oil prices. Drawing on 36 years in the Coast Guard, he tied the themes to his bestselling submarine thriller Hades Crypt and a coming sequel, Desperate Countermeasures, noting that a large share of his book royalties supports junior enlisted service members. Reach him at jlenscuto.com.Neil then welcomed the legendary Suzanne Somers, author of Two's Company: A 50-Year Romance with Lessons Learned in Love, Life, and Business. Somers shared the story of meeting her husband, Canadian television star Alan Hamel, on a San Francisco game-show set, and of a partnership so close the two have not spent a night apart in decades while also running a business together. She recounted her rise on Three's Company, being fired after seeking pay equal to the men on the number-one show, and the smear campaign that followed, then how she and Hamel refused to dwell on what she had lost and instead branded Suzanne Somers, from the ThighMaster to headlining Las Vegas. Her throughline was simple: problems do not define you, how you respond to them does, and the goal is to turn setbacks into opportunities. Find her at SuzanneSomers.com.The hour closes with actor and director Mario Van Peebles on Syfy's Superstition, in which he writes, directs, produces, and stars alongside his daughter Morgana. Van Peebles described growing up in the Van Peebles independent-film family as an apprenticeship in every job on a set, from cables and lighting to directing, so that wearing many hats now feels natural. He pitched Superstition as the story of a loving Southern family in the funeral business, running the Hastings Funeral Home, who battle demons rising as humanity does more damage to the planet, each episode built around a different piece of Gothic Americana. He shared bits of his father Melvin's wisdom, that luck is preparation meeting opportunity, and that it is not what you face but how you face it that reveals you. Find Mick Foley's Saint Mick and Suzanne Somers' Two's Company in bookstores, Jay Len Sciuto at jlenscuto.com, and Mario Van Peebles on Superstition.

Al ritmo que van los cambios en la iglesia católica en cuanto a la sinodalidad, donde todo lo quieren trasformar a sinodal: iglesia sinodal, camino sinodal, estructura sinodal, escucha sinodal, equipos sinodales, parroquias sinodales, etc. no sería descabellado y más como va la secretaría general del Sínodo, que a la iglesia le agregarán un atributo más de su naturaleza, quedando: Una, santa, católica, apostólica y sinodal.
by Patrick BromleyChicago's biggest and best horror convention returns!One of my favorite weekends of the year is Chicago's annual Flashback Weekend, the horror convention created and run by Mike and Mia Kerz that takes place in Rosemont, Illinois. It's three days of panels, parties, contests, vendors, celebrity guests, live music -- everything you could want as a horror fan. This will be my sixth year hosting panels at the convention, but I've been going to Flashback much longer than just these six years. I love it.This year's Flashback features a salute to 30 years of the Scream franchise, celebrates Halloween II, a Night of the Creeps reunion, features first-time Flashback appearances from Henry Thomas, Steven Weber, and the Silent Night, Deadly Night Santas, and even has Obsession co-star Megan Lawless making her convention debut (I get to host her panel on Sunday! Come on out!). Plus, this year sees the world premiere of a brand new Full Moon movie (relevant to my interests!), in-costume photo opps, Alan Howarth playing the score to Halloween II LIVE along with the film, a tribute to Svengoolie (the greatest horror host of all time), and so much more.One of my favorite things about Flashback -- besides all the cool guests and the chance to spend the weekend surrounded by horror stuff and horror fans -- is that it's a family-run convention and really feels that way. All of the proceeds from the con go into supporting the Midway Drive-In located in Dixon, IL -- the nicest and best drive-in in Illinois -- which they bought in 2007. I love that Flashback is dedicated to preserving the big-screen theatrical experience.From this year's press release:Flashback Weekend Chicago Horror ConventionJuly 31 - Aug. 2, 2026Hyatt Regency O'Hare Chicago, Rosemont, IL 60018 Tickets now on sale at www.flashbackweekend.comFlashback Weekend Chicago Horror Convention celebrates its 25th year with a MASSIVE Celebrity guest line-up, amazing evening events, luxurious after-parties, an enormous vendor room, and special Celebrity costume Celeb Photo-Ops.All of this and more, taking place in one of the largest and most beautiful Convention hotels in the World!FLASHBACK WEEKEND 2026 SALUTES;-30 years of SCREAM!

From humble beginnings in the early 1900s to a multi-million dollar industry, haunted attractions remain one of the few linchpins that connect modern American folk traditions and regional commerce...a place where dreamers and misfits come together to entertain people at a scale that is simultaneously huge but personal to their community. At the center of the story is the journey of seasoned "haunter" John LaFlamboy as he battles time and resources to build his dream attraction....HellsGate Haunted House.

Yesterday I walked into Target looking for a journal and walked out with a lesson I had to bring to you. I overheard a mom tell her daughter they couldn't get the supplies she wanted, and something clicked. I bought that little girl everything she needed, then kept going from store to store looking for more people to help. This episode is not about what I did. It is about the 'once I, then I' trap that keeps you from making a difference right now, and why the impact you think is small to you could be massive for someone else. Key Takeaways The bar for doing good is far lower than most people believe. You do not need a certain status or income level to create real impact today. The 'once I, then I' mentality is a trap. Waiting until you have more before you give keeps you from using what you already have. When you commit to making a difference, your mind starts finding opportunities everywhere. The decision comes before the opportunity, not after. What feels small to you can be enormous to someone else. A twelve dollar backpack made a kid feel like Spider-Man. Helping others is reciprocal. Watching your hard work pay off for someone else fuels you to work harder and give more. Action Steps Make a decision this morning that you will make a difference in one person's life today, then watch how many chances appear in front of you. Find a school supply section at a Target, Walmart, or similar store this week and look for a family that needs a hand. Buy something. Do not announce your name. Audit your current resources: time, money, skills, or connections. Identify one specific way you can offer that resource to someone in your circle or community before the week ends. Notable Quote What's small to you might be huge to somebody, and that should excite you.
Um homem entra numa igreja depois de muitos anos, sem saber se o passado tem a última palavra. Neste episódio, Juvenil Alves percorre a frase do Credo que responde a essa pergunta: das primeiras lições de latim num seminário de Minas à Igreja antiga — Hermas, Tertuliano, Cipriano, Agostinho — e ao Concílio Vaticano II. Por que a Igreja é santa e, ao mesmo tempo, sempre necessitada de purificação.

Got a text from Jean yesterday saying that they're loving their time in Boston. I can't wait to hear all about her trip when she gets back next week. In the news this morning, the Minocqua Brewing Company has it's license revoked, a nationwide recall on Thyroid medication, a Costco settlement could mean money in your pocket, a tragic murder/suicide in Michigan, Myspace is apparently attempting to make a comeback, and Oscar Mayer is celebrating the 90th anniversary of the Wienermobile with a special "wiener cake". In sports, the Brewers beat the Giants last night and go for the series sweep later today, the Tony Romo arrest video has been released, Kyle Shanahan takes full responsibility for the accident he was recently involved in, Micah Parsons is starting the season on the PUP list for the Packers, and Adrian Peterson will be inducted into the Vikings Ring of Honor later this season. Talked about what's on TV & streaming today/tonight. Plus, a possible "Home Alone" sequel starring Macaulay Culkin might be in the works, David Lee Roth & Alex Van Halen are reuniting in Fargo for a TED talk, and the kids from "The Sandlot" are going to be in a new series called "Dugout Dads". Great story about a guy who beat cancer and decided to celebrate by canoeing the Missouri river with his dog, a kid in Florida is getting recognized for reading to shelter animals, and a message in a bottle is found 53 years later and returned to the family of it's original sender. It's Hump Day, so that means "One Gotta Go Wednesday"…and today's edition was food related - Burgers. Tacos. Pizza. Or fried chicken? Elsewhere in sports, the Browns re-up Denzel Ward and make him the highest paid defensive back in NFL history, Ohio State and Notre Dame make record deals for sponsorship patches on their respective uniforms, Bills fans AND some of their players absolutely hate their new "Nickel City" uniforms, and a minor league baseball player gets trucked by a mascot in a Santa suit. I personally don't think that mini-vans were ever cool…but apparently the younger generation is trying to make mini-vans a "thing". And in today's edition of "Bad News with Happy Music", we had stories about a daycare worker that locked a kid in the closet so she could go to the liquor store, a bunch of rabid beavers in NY & NJ keep attacking people, a #FloridaMan who got busted for drugs while on the phone with his "bae", & a self-service kiosk at Popeye's restaurants is asking people to tip the kitchen staff.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Oulu, Finland has a reputation for doing winter differently, and after talking with local guides Minna and Marika, we get why. This northern seaside city isn't just “survivable” in the cold, it's designed for real life outdoors, from maintained winter bike routes to sea ice adventures and sauna culture that turns warming up into a daily ritual. If you're planning Finland travel and want a city that blends nature, culture, and practical design, Oulu belongs on your shortlist.

We talk about what to do in Oulu in winter and summer: Northern Lights tours with dinner by an open fire, snowshoeing, kick sledding, skiing routes, ice fishing on the Baltic Sea, and even ice-hole winter swimming. When the days stretch long, Oulu opens up into beach time at Nallikari, kayaking, stand-up paddleboarding, and easy ways to explore the city's islands and waterfront. Culture matters here too. We dig into museums, theater, ice hockey, and Oulu's role in showcasing Sami culture, plus the fun, slightly wild spirit that produces the Air Guitar World Championships for world peace. We wrap by connecting our “roam to home” theme to our sponsor, Essential Oxygen, and why we like their simple, travel-friendly oral care and multi-use cleaning approach.

Local talent Mac Meissner and Johnny Keefer are fighting hard to make it to the playoffs so best wishes to both of them. But we start out by talking about stabbing on a golf course. San Antonio's own true crime podcast. Then Lebron goes to Philly and we wonder if he will be embraced by the fans that threw batteries at Santa. And we round back around to the golfing end of season. Oh yeah, we may have discussed Spurs hush money and whether they could have dodged their contractual obligations.
Renowned picture book creators, Mac Barnett and Jon Klassen, want people of all ages to understand and appreciate children's stories and how this art form enriches our individual lives and our culture. Speaking on the process of creating their latest collaboration, a board book series called Now I See, Barnett and Klassen have insights into what makes a great children's book using elements you can find both on and off the page. This multi-award winning, New York Times bestselling duo operates differently than a lot of children's book creators. Typically, an author and illustrator don't directly collaborate, and yet these two find success in close conversations with each other. Using their unique perspectives, Barnett and Klassen also write a newsletter for adults, Looking at Picture Books, which examines the picture book as a respected art form. Their Now I See board book collection applies that lens by celebrating the spare beauty and wonder of the changing seasons from the point of view of a child. A tree that has full green leaves in Now I See Summer sheds them in Now I See Fall. The snowy sky of Now I See Winter gives way to the rainy sky in Now I See Spring. And of course, the perfect hat changes with each season, too. Barnett and Klassen want to uplift the picture book as an art form, showing everyone of every age what goes into the making of great children's literature. They'll discuss the importance and value of picture books — and how they work. Kids are, of course, welcome, but the primary audience for these events is adults keen to learn more about picture books. Mac Barnett, the 2025-2026 National Ambassador for Young People's Literature, is a New York Times-bestselling author of stories for children. His work has been translated into more than 30 languages and has sold more than 5 million copies worldwide. Some of his books include The First Cat in Space graphic novel series, illustrated by Shawn Harris, Twenty Questions, illustrated by Christian Robinson, and Santa's First Christmas, illustrated by Sydney Smith. Jon Klassen is the New York Times-bestselling author and illustrator of numerous books, who was appointed to the Order of Canada in 2018 for his contributions to children's literature. His recent books include the Your Places board book series and The Skull, a #1 New York Times bestseller that earned six starred reviews and a piece in the New York Times Book Review in which Ransom Riggs refers to Jon as both "the dean of deadpan" and a "national treasure." Jon Mooallem is the author of three books, Wild Ones, This is Chance! and the essay collection Serious Face. He lives on Bainbridge Island.

What's up, dudes? I've got Ken Kessler from Sounds of Christmas and Scott Leopold from Holly Jolly X'masu here to talk the jangle pop/alternative rock album by the Chris Stamey Group “Christmas Time!” After a stint with the dB's, Chris Stamey went out on his own as a solo artist. He invited his former bandmates back for a fun Christmas album. "Christmas Time" was released as a 7-song vinyl EP under the credit Chris Stamey Group with Special Guests The dB's. The EP mixed original songs with inventive takes on Christmas music, emphasizing chorused and reverbed guitars, melodic power pop, and quirky holiday charm. The record was mostly comprised of original tunes, the exception being a reworking of Deck the Hall by Cathy Harrington called Sha La La (Deck the Halls). Something Came Over Me is a reflective, melodic original that balances bittersweet lyrics with shimmering guitars and sophisticated pop arrangements. The opening title track is a bright, jangly power-pop original featuring Chris Stamey and Peter Holsapple's harmonies, chiming guitars, and an infectious holiday hook that perfectly captures the warmth and excitement of Christmas. The Only Law That Santa Claus Understood is a witty folk-pop original by Ted Lyons that pairs clever storytelling with acoustic instrumentation and understated charm, offering one of the collection's most unique lyrical perspectives. Snow Is Falling is a lush, atmospheric ballad featuring bass ostinato and Mary's haunting lead vocal, slowly building into a dreamy meditation on the quiet beauty and peaceful solitude of a snowy Christmas evening. Both are followed by the acoustic guitar instrumental It's a Wonderful Life which quotes What Child is This? to end on a remarkable, intriguing disquiet.Keyboards? Yep. Guitars? Got ‘em.

In this episode, Liv sits down with Skye Della Santa as they explore the transformative power of breathwork, somatic healing, and holistic addiction recovery. Drawing from her own journey through anxiety, trauma, and healing, Skye shares how discovering breathwork became a turning point that led her to support others in reconnecting with their bodies, regulating their nervous systems, and creating lasting transformation. Together, they explore the relationship between breath, trauma, and emotional well-being, the importance of creating safety before releasing stored emotions, and how cultural influences shape the way we process and express our feelings. Skye also shares insights on supporting men in emotional healing, embracing the full spectrum of human emotions, and the energetic hygiene practices that allow practitioners to sustainably hold space for others.EPISODE TAKEAWAYSHow breathwork supports nervous system regulation and emotional healingThe connection between breathwork, trauma, and holistic addiction recoveryWhy creating safety in the body is essential before processing emotionsThe role of embodiment in healing and long-term well-beingHow cultural differences influence emotional expression and healing practicesThe importance of embracing the full spectrum of human emotionsSelf-care and energetic hygiene practices for facilitators and practitionersCONNECT WITH SKYESkye Della Santa is a Breathwork Facilitator and Somatic Practitioner with years of experience supporting women through healing and transformation.

Welcome to a new Boys' Bible Study side project called "The DharMann Bums," which is what we're renaming the show whenever we cover an episode of Dhar Mann, the inspirational YouTube filmmaker who racks up hundreds of millions of views making dramaslop with a questionable moral compass. We've covered Dhar Mann before, enjoying his decadent world where archetypes like "nice guys" and gold diggers duke it out, usually over money, and the evil party gets punished for their hubris. Since it's time for our annual Christmas in July episode, we decided to delve into two Christmas-themed Dhar Mann videos: "Foster Mom Won't Let Kids Have Christmas Presents" and "Adopted Kid Finds Out Mall Santa Is His Dad." Notice both plots center on orphans; the orphan is a common Dhar Mann archetype, probably popular because his audience of primarily children empathizes with downtrodden kids stuck between adults who don't have their best interests at heart. Another common trope is the evil foster parent, who only wants kids for the money they bring in through abuse of government handouts. In "Foster Mom," an evil Russian-coded foster mom makes her kids ask for Amazon gift cards for Christmas and blocks adoptions, since losing kids means losing income for her orphanage. In "Mall Santa," an evil foster mom hides her adopted son from his real dad, a humble mall Santa, again because he's her source of passive income. In both videos, Dhar Mann exists as an aspirational God-like figure representing both God and Santa Claus. Only by contacting Dhar Mann, and through the goodness of his own heart, are these orphans relieved of their evil caretakers. By frequently critiquing misuse of government resources while establishing himself as the source of grace and charity, Dhar Mann seems to imply a kind of YouTuber autocracy where the dignity to live comes from one Mann alone. This bizarre quasi-religious undertone, where there is no God but Dhar Mann, makes him fascinating for our podcast about religious megalomania. As long as Dhar Mann keeps making reactionary anti-human art, The DharMann Bums will be here to document it.

On this Make a Difference Minute, I have Paul Bruyneel, better known to many as Santa Paul, as he shares about his recovery following his third shoulder replacement surgery. After decades of physically demanding work, degenerative arthritis took a devastating toll on Paul's shoulder. Finding a surgeon willing to perform such a complex revision surgery wasn't easy, and by the time the procedure could be done, additional damage had occurred, making the operation even more challenging. Now facing more than two months away from work, Paul is focused on healing while relying on the unwavering support of his wife, Sandy. He says she's been his rock through every surgery, helping with even the simplest daily tasks during recovery. For someone who has spent years bringing joy to children and giving back to others as Santa Paul, this season has required him to accept the kindness of the community he's worked so hard to serve. If you'd like to support Paul and his family during his recovery, you can give through GoFundMe by searching “Taking the Weight Off His Shoulders.” This MADM is brought to you by Premier Structures, Inc., proudly supporting stories and the people who make our communities strong.

A listener in the UK, Andy, is raging after a 10-year-old girl with autism and ADHD told his 8-year-old that Santa, the tooth fairy and “all that” aren't real — leaving his daughter in bits and the magic ruined. When Andy confronted the girl's parents, he says they got defensive, refused to address it, and used the diagnosis as an excuse. Andy's reaction (and language) sparks a huge debate. Callers clash: should parents be teaching autistic kids what's appropriate, or should everyone else show more understanding? And is it ever ok to tell your child to stay away?

Sam is desperate for a little cool down so he brings us the holidays in July with the 2021 Hallmark movie The Santa Stakeout. Tanya is a newly minted detective having recently moved to a suburb of Denver. She's facing the ghastly prospect of spending Christmas alone, but fortunately there has been a series of art heists that coincided with Christmas parties around town. Unfortunately, Tanya is put on the case with the person she hates most, Detective Anderson, and they're going to have to share a house while staking out the prime suspect: A Santa actor known only as Mr. Christmas. Somehow, Tanya turns this into an excuse to create a winter wonderland in stakeout house, while both she and Anderson completely ignore or, at best, botch the case. Seriously, these two are such lousy detective that Tanya can't find a Christmas present at a holiday market, and Anderson loses track of the suspect because he's too busy baking gingerbread men. Things get worse when they immediately and unilaterally turn their stakeout into an undercover operation to infiltrate the most dangerous organization in the country: The Christmas Committee. Will our two terrible cops crack the case? More importantly from Hallmark's perspective, will they go from enemies to lovers? We don't think you need to be Sherlock Holmes to figure that out.
While the focus of Operation Merry Christmas this year seems to be dominated by Santa's new sleigh there is another sleigh in the skies on Christmas Eve – the one used by Elf Crash Murphy to chase Santa in the skies. His job is to observe Santa, measure his progress and position, and to report via North Pole Radio News from his chaser sleigh every Christmas Eve. Elf Crash draws more mail than just about any other elf at the North Pole due to his dual jobs of chasing Santa as an Eye in the Sky reporter and as International Director of Santa Trackers. They don't call him the Ultimate Santa tracker for nothing. He literally works tracking Santa for Santa all year long. And that is why he gets so much mail. In this episode of the North Pole Podcast we explore the questions people have about following Santa on Christmas Eve. And we get into the deep water of why Norad isn't exactly helpful in tracking Santa. Please click on the player above to hear this surprising episode.

Send us Fan MailNew York Times bestselling author Jason June (Out of the Blue, Jay's Gay Agenda) returns to Writers With Wrinkles for a wide-ranging conversation covering his growing acting career, the current state of the publishing industry, and his upcoming adult rom-com Santa and Krampus' Cozy Killer Christmas, out fall 2027. Jason is refreshingly candid — about book advances, about the anxiety running through publishing right now, and about finding joy in the work when the business side gets hard. GuestJason June — NYT bestselling author, actor, screenwriter, and self-described "Laura Dern stan" based in Dallas, TX. Known for YA rom-coms Out of the Blue and Jay's Gay Agenda, and publisher of The Ventorship, a newsletter on author finances and transparency. Highlights• Auditioning post-COVID: why self-tapes democratize acting, and what's lost without an in-person redirect from a casting director• How years of writing fiction sharpened Jason's instincts for character and story on set• The "greater sense of unease" in publishing right now — AI concerns, slow timelines, and authors questioning why traditional publishing can't move faster• Self-publishing's rising role, the discovery gap it still faces, and why hybrid careers are becoming more common• The Dungeon Crawler Carl story as a case study in trusting your own artistic vision• Why Jason publicly shares his advances and royalties through The Ventorship — and the argument that most of that "secrecy" is self-imposed• Publishing as a side hustle: debut culture, shrinking advances, and the myth of the "cushy" author life• The MER Principle (Beth's term): find the niche community obsessed with your book's specific hook, not a general audience• The premise behind Santa and Krampus' Cozy Killer Christmas — a "dark cozy" where Krampus only kills the people who'd otherwise doom humanity• Jason's advice to aspiring authors: chase the joy, and aim to be "prolific, not perfect" Key TakeawayWhether you're navigating traditional publishing, weighing a hybrid career, or just trying to market your next book, the throughline is the same: get specific. Specific about your niche audience, specific about your finances, and specific about what actually brings you joy in the work.Have a marketing tip that's worked for you?

Toy entrepreneur Brad Pederson shares how building multiple toy companies and going through three bankruptcies taught him that struggles forge character. From launching a styrofoam glider as a kid to getting thrown into special loans by his bank, Brad unpacks why pride comes before the fall, how he learned to become antifragile rather than just resilient, and why courage is the cardinal virtue that makes creative ideas matter. He discusses the three roles of a CEO, the importance of play for adults, and how his book Startup Santa captures the lessons of failing forward. Hosted on Acast.

It's another throwback to a heartwarming 90s Christmas classic thanks to Ry-Guy! ABOUT SANTA AND PETE It's the first Christmas without Grandma and a difficult time for the family, until Grandpa (James Earl Jones) decides to share a story with his ten-year-old grandson Terence. AIR DATE & NETWORK FOR SANTA AND PETE December 5, 1999 | CBS CAST & CREW OF SANTA AND PETE Director: Duwayne Dunham Writers: Greg Taylor, Christopher Moore, Pamela Johnson Cast: James Earl Jones as Grandpa Nicholas Hume Cronyn as Saint Nick Flex Alexander as Pete BRAN'S MOVIE SYNOPSIS The movie kicks off with Santa doing Santa stuff. Checking that list twice. Looking at a globe to see if anything's changed. You know the stuff. We meet Grandpa Nicolas decorating his house for the first Christmas since his wife passed away. His daughter Cassie shows up with her husband James and son Terence and they all start to decorate the tree. Little Terence pulls out a Santa ornament. Grandpa insists there's one more ornament in there that goes with Santa. Sure enough, there is one more ornament of some random dude. Terence is like who is this? Grandpa Nicolas is like well have I got a story for you. Before Santa was Santa, he was Saint Nicolas, a Christian Bishop and Patron Saint of Children who would travel around, giving presents to children. One day he is arrested by the Spanish government who suspect he is actually a spy and their concerns only grow when they discover that he carries around a book called The Book of Life that has a ton of names in it and stuff about each of those people. Gotta be honest...sounds like a spy. While in jail, he meets a guy named Peter who is shocked when this old dude knows his name and knows that he wants to travel the world. When Pete finds out that he's St. Nicolas, they spend the night talking, and Pete decides to bust St. Nick out. They become partners and years later they decide to head to the New World. Before they leave they are approached by a dude who wants them to find someone named Elizabeth Van Olden to give her an engagement ring and a promise to join her as soon as he can. Santa and Pete are shocked to find out that the New World is not the perfect paradise they had heard about. People are too busy to celebrate Christmas and there's hostility between the settlers and the Native Americans. There's no open lodging for the famous Santa and Pete, so they're forced to sleep in a barn for the night where they find a little girl named Marlene. She tells them that she lost her parents while they were building a cabin in the woods. Santa promises that they'll find her parents and Pete is like whoa that's a big promise. Santa and Pete meet with the governor to ask for help finding Marlene's parents. He tells them that the Native Americans took them and he's planning an attack. So that's not great. On Christmas Eve, they travel by carriage and reindeer to go visit the Dangola family, including Janet who Pete thinks is FINEEEEE. On the way back, they are stopped by the Native Americans. They say they've been waiting for the man with the white beard to fulfill the prophecy. Santa requests they return Marlene's parents and they give Santa a bright red coat. Santa and Pete begin delivering presents and find that the village boot boy has made Nick some black leather boots. Arriving at the governor's house they realize there are no traditional wooden clogs to put gifts in and end up going down the chimney and leaving gifts in stockings instead. They also meet the governor's maid, who turns out to be Elizabeth Van Olden, and after giving her the engagement ring she gives Nick a bright red hat. Returning to the Dangola house, the Native Americans appear with Marlene's parents. The snow starts to come down super heavy and they're now unable to navigate the snow in their carriage. Maria's husband, Big Manuel, replaces the wheels with runners, transforming it into a sleigh, now with 6 reindeer. As Santa and Pete leave, the sleigh suddenly lifts into the sky and they fly away into the night. Back in the present, Terence wakes up in the middle of the night and finds that the Book of Life is in the living room. He finds his name inside and finds out that he is related to Pete. But when he tries to tell Grandpa Nicolas, the book disappears and he cannot remember anything he read. Classic Santa.

Our panellists beg: please, Santa, do not bring us a Christmas election. Red, yellow and green traffic lights are outdated because a fourth colour might be added to intersections. There's a big innovation in menstrual products and thank god, it's not AI! Peanut allergies have fallen fast, yet the PB sandwich remains a schoolyard crime. Why no one's allowed to celebrate The Great Peanut Comeback just yet. (This episode aired November 2025)
This week on Two Parents & A Podcast, happy Friday!!! We recorded this episode the night before heading out to DC and instead of our usual, we decided to do a little game: we picked a bunch of parenting hot takes & "would you rather" questions to answer rapid-fire, and yes we were all a little slap happy LOL. PSA UPFRONT: we talk about Santa in this episode around 20 minutes in… please do not listen in front of your kids!!! OK let's get into it: A few we cannot stop thinking about: is it ever OK to lie to your kids?! (Santa, tooth fairy, "the iPad only exists on the airplane" lies…), are iPads the modern day cigarette?! (YES), should schools ban birthday treats?! (no), should toddlers actually be expected to share?! (yes!!!), and the great household debate: shoes on or shoes off in the house?! (Harrison is CANADIAN and yet still on Team Shoes On somehow??). Plus, we get into some wild parenting advice from the 1930s-1960s (mothers were told don't breastfeed if you're angry?! Doctors recommended cigarettes during pregnancy?! Don't hug your baby too much or you'll create a tyrant??) that made us wonder what advice we're getting today that we'll think is crazy in 100 years. Plus, pacifiers after age 2 (yes or no?), and the true or false round: is the second kid actually rules-free? Was parenting easier before Instagram? Do parents secretly love when plans get canceled? And of course, Harrison walks us through 100 years of stock market data to kick things off (cliffhanger from last ep!! lol)… 30,000 stocks analyzed over 100 years, and only 27.6% outperformed the market. His case for index funds continues!!

For 32 years, Travis was a functional drinker who never got a DUI, never missed a day of work, and never fit the picture most people hold when they hear "drinking problem," but spent years hiding beers in the garage, lying to his wife about the count, and woke up after one Christmas morning knowing his kids had been worried Santa wasn't coming. He came to This Naked Mind thinking he might be able to moderate. He joined The Path in November 2023, had one more bad birthday, and threw out the last two bottles of a Wisconsin six-pack the next day. He's at 757 days alcohol-free. Coach Cole Harvey is here to hear him tell it. Travis and Coach Cole discuss: The pit party at 18 that set up a chase he'd spend the next 32 years trying to get back to Hiding beers in the garage, counting them in his head and lying about the number, and why the "alcoholic" label kept him from asking for help for years The Christmas his kids were worried Santa wasn't coming, and why even that didn't break the cycle A 2023 job loss that cracked things open, and the visualization exercise during a free Zoom that convinced him to commit to The Path What happened on his 50th birthday and the two bottles he threw out the next day The parallel mental health journey that changed what he understands about why he was drinking in the first place Nearly 30 pounds lost and one afternoon of yard work that proved something had shifted in his body What his 14-year-old daughter said to her friends about her dad, and why Travis still can't get through it without getting chills And more on neural pathway habits, the functional drinker's relationship with the "alcoholic" label, and finding your own path to alcohol freedom...
