Christmas becomes dangerous when the symbols grow larger than the Savior they were meant to proclaim. Mangers, music, gifts, and traditions can quietly replace worship if they are detached from the cross and the gospel. Families must come back to the full story of Christ—from incarnation and humiliation to death, resurrection, and kingship. True joy is found not in the celebration itself, but in the Savior it points to.

This episode revisits General Hospital Christmases from 2019–2024, spotlighting the moments that mixed holiday tradition with classic Port Charles storytelling. It begins in 2019 at the General Hospital Christmas party, where Monica reads 'Twas the Night Before Christmas before the night transforms into A Christmas Carol—with Finn as Scrooge, forced to see Christmas through the eyes of a new father. That year also delivers warm community moments at Rice Plaza with Curtis as Santa and a Christmas reunion when Sam is released and brought home to her family.The middle years, 2020 and 2021, lean quieter and more reflective. Families try to keep Christmas steady while bigger storylines unfold, and the hospital remains the emotional center of the season with Kevin Collins as Santa, Lucy organizing the pediatric celebration, and Martin Gray bringing gifts to elderly patients—small moments that keep the holiday spirit grounded.The later stretch blends nostalgia and escalation. 2022 brings the Gingerbread Jam, Esme's improvised tower Christmas tree, and Trina's ornament honoring Rory. 2023 returns to familiar warmth with Curtis, Marshall, and Trina Christmas tree shopping, Quartermaine decorating chaos, Chase and Brook Lynn's engagement, and a Christmas Eve hospital gathering that quietly marks Monica Quartermaine's final holiday scenes, before 2024 teases both heart and shock, including Lucky and Elizabeth decorating together and his serenade of “Elizabeth.”#luckyspencer #lizwebber #generalhospitalhistory #twasthenightbeforechristmas #ebenezerscrooge #achristmascarol #monicaquartermaine #GeneralHospital #GH #GHHistory #ChristmasTraditions #HolidayVibes #GHThrowback #SoapOperaPodcast #ChristmasEpisode #GeneralHospitalPodcast This podcast is not endorsed by, directly affiliated with, maintained, authorized, or sponsored by ABC Television Network, Prospect Studios, or any official General Hospital organizations.

In this Christmas episode, Jesse steps back from year-end checklists and market noise to tell a more personal story—one shaped by the "ghosts" of his financial past, present, and future. He begins with the early experiences that formed his relationship with money: a summer concession stand that taught him pricing, customer focus, and the power of simply telling people what you do; a first job cleaning bathrooms at a state park that clarified the difference between earning a paycheck and building a career; and the moment in his mid-20s when seeing real dollars in his 401(k) pulled him into a decade-long deep dive on personal finance, blogging, and eventually a full career change into wealth management. From there, he pivots into a transparent walkthrough of his current systems—how he and his wife structure savings, manage cash, use insurance, approach debt, track spending, and design an investment allocation that reflects real life rather than theory. He also shares three planning cases from this year that reveal the human side of financial advice: navigating retirement after a family death, unwinding concentrated stock risk for a high-earning executive, and giving one engineer the peace of mind to sleep through layoff fears. Looking ahead, Jesse reflects on where the industry is headed—AI-enabled tools, changing fee models, and a shift toward values-based planning—while outlining how he and his family think about the future with a firm grip on flexibility, priorities, and the fleeting years of raising young children. It's an intimate, thoughtful close to the year—less about spreadsheets and more about why financial planning matters in the life you're actually living. Key Takeaways: • Take time to seek out new opportunities. Putting yourself out there for advancement is one of the most straightforward ways to advance financially. • Getting "skin in the game" with real dollars in a 401(k) or investment account is often the catalyst for learning personal finance at a deeper level. • A blended approach to retirement savings (401(k), Roth IRA, HSA) builds both tax flexibility and long-term resilience. • Cash-management infrastructure—joint accounts, high-yield banks, and legacy accounts—matters less than ensuring clarity, shared access, and ease of use. • Tools like the state-run CHIP/Child Health Plus programs can dramatically reduce healthcare costs for families with children. • Strong personal finances create flexibility: the ability to enjoy life now while still protecting the future—especially during the irreplaceable years of raising children.

Lance Katigbak, Principal at BCG Manila, joins Jeremy Au to break down why Filipino households, not individuals, are the true drivers of economic decisions in the Philippines. Drawing from BCG's large scale research on the Filipino family, they explore how family structures shape spending, saving, and borrowing behavior, and why health risk sits at the center of financial anxiety. The conversation covers multi earner and extended households, the role of informal lending, and how overseas Filipino workers remain deeply involved in family decisions from abroad. Lance also explains why most products miss the market by designing for individuals, and how companies can unlock real opportunity by building for the household instead. 03:25 Filipino families fall into six major structures: Nuclear families make up less than half of households, with one earner, dual earner, and multi earner families each representing about a third of the population. 09:07 Informal lenders understand households better than banks: Five six lenders assess family level ability to repay, unlike formal finance that underwrites individuals. 13:01 Debt is driven by medical necessity: Paying off debt is the top priority for the poorest families, with health emergencies as the main trigger for borrowing. 18:35 Overseas Filipino workers anchor household budgets: OFWs send home most of their income and remain actively involved in family decisions through constant communication. 23:17 The Filipino dream centers on family security: Top goals are financial protection against health shocks and starting small stable businesses. 29:16 Spending roles differ by gender: Women often manage savings and budgets while men more often handle investments and hardware purchases. 32:04 Families seek modest upgrades, not luxury: Aspirations focus on stress free groceries, affordable dining out, and daily stability rather than status.

As I write this, it's Christmas Eve. While many of us are moving through a season of comfort and predictability, I keep returning to what I saw walking through the streets of Cuba. Not in headlines or statistics, but at street level. Neighbourhoods without running water. Electricity that fails often enough to be expected. Roads and sidewalks eroded into improvisation rather than repair. Infrastructure that no longer supports daily life, but merely endures alongside it. What struck me most were the small, improvised economies operating inside people's homes. Corner shops carved out of living rooms and front windows. Shelves mostly empty. A few scattered items; soap, canned goods, a bottle or two; offered more as possibility than supply. These were not businesses in the conventional sense, but acts of persistence. People selling what little they could source, not to grow, but to survive. In contrast, government stores stood rigid and bare. Long lines formed early, people waiting patiently for whatever might arrive. No certainty, no choice; just endurance. Elderly men and women stood apart, looking through windows rather than lining up, watching quietly, as if calculating whether the effort was worth the return. There was no anger in their posture. Just fatigue. A lifetime lived long enough to recognize scarcity as permanent rather than temporary. And yet, the streets were not chaotic. Homes were occupied. Communities functioned. People greeted one another. Children played. There was dignity in how life continued despite the absence of systems meant to sustain it. Pride, not in conditions, but in endurance. A refusal to surrender daily routines, even when the state no longer reliably provides the basics those routines depend on. That contrast stayed with me. Material failure on one side; social cohesion on the other. Institutions visibly broken, yet communities holding themselves together through habit, restraint, and mutual recognition. As we sit surrounded by abundance and choice, Cuba offers a sobering reminder; collapse does not always look like disorder. Sometimes it looks like people quietly adapting, carrying on, and preserving dignity in circumstances that leave very little room for it. Cuba's Economic Landscape The Cuban economy rests on three pillars, each one cracked. State control dictates production and distribution, yet delivers neither predictably. Tourism brings foreign currency when it comes; when it doesn't, entire sectors go dormant. Remittances from family abroad keep individual households afloat but cannot repair what the state has allowed to deteriorate. I watched this play out in Holguín. Hotels near the beaches sat half-empty, their lobbies staffed but waiting. Tour buses passed through neighborhoods where residents had no meaningful contact with the tourist economy happening beside them. The money flows in narrow channels, reaching some while bypassing most, and when global disruptions close those channels entirely, there is no backup system. The pandemic proved this. When travel stopped, so did the pretense of economic diversification. Jobs vanished. Services contracted. The state stepped in where it could, but its capacity had already been stretched thin by decades of deferred maintenance and misallocated resources. Families with relatives in Miami or Madrid survived on wire transfers; families without them made do with less. The government has acknowledged the brittleness, at least partially. Small private businesses now operate legally in food service and retail; spaces that would have been unthinkable a generation ago. Joint ventures with foreign companies receive official encouragement. On paper, these reforms signal openness. On the ground, they operate within boundaries so narrow that growth remains theoretical rather than realized. Because the fundamental problem persists: there is not enough of anything. Goods arrive sporadically. Industrial output continues its decline. Foreign investors cal...

It's been a harrowing year for many families. The Trump administration's budget cuts are giving tax breaks to billionaires at the expense of funding healthy meals for students experiencing food insecurity; legislatures are banning books and attacking LGBTQ+ students; and immigration crackdowns are leaving many students afraid to go to school at all. Families have had a lot to be worried about—more than just tests and grades—this year. What are students, parents, and teachers worried about—and what policies are advocates watching?Helping us to sort out these questions and set the record straight is our very special guest, Becky Pringle: Becky Pringle is president of the National Education Association, the nation's largest labor union. Becky is a middle school science teacher with more than three decades of classroom experience and has distinguished herself as a fierce social justice warrior and defender of educator rights.Check out this episode's landing page at MsMagazine.com for a full transcript, links to articles referenced in this episode, further reading and ways to take action.Support the show

Parenting and addiction are not two words you want in the same sentence, but unfortunately, addiction happens, and thus, parents need to know the facts about it. The Inherited Pattern of Addiction Addiction isn't just about individual choices; it often stems from generational patterns and dysfunction. Many people facing addiction today can trace their struggles back to influences and events in their family history. The interplay of epigenetics and unresolved emotional issues can shape how children are raised and how they handle challenges, impacting their potential for addiction. Recognizing Warning Signs in Children Parents might wonder what the early indicators of their child's potential addiction could be. It's essential to pay attention to changes in behavior, such as shifts in interests, friend groups, or academic performance. Unexplained isolation, carrying certain items everywhere, or noticeable changes in physical appearance can also signal underlying issues. Always trust your instincts; if you suspect something, there's often a valid reason behind it. The Role of Anxiety and Emotional Neglect Balancing Boundaries with Understanding Handling Older Children and Adult Addiction Relapse During the Holiday Season Holidays can amplify stressors, leading to a spike in relapses. Increased pressure, financial strain, and family dynamics can overwhelm someone in recovery. Families can support their loved ones by keeping celebrations manageable and straightforward, and avoiding substances that might trigger a relapse. Planning and open discussions about expectations can alleviate holiday-induced anxiety, helping maintain sobriety.

In this powerful conversation with Bob Fraser—bestselling author, international speaker, and partner in a private equity firm—we explore three transformative concepts every father needs to understand. First, how do you see people? Your view of mankind shapes everything. Second, what's the real purpose of wealth and finances? It's not what you think. Third, how do you launch your children into their true identity and calling? Bob shares his journey of 41 years of marriage, raising four kids (now with 12 grandkids), and building a family legacy that spans generations. From learning to fly at 62 to writing "Invest Like a Billionaire" with his son Ben, Bob reveals why Earth's greatest days are unfolding now, how the Kingdom of God is steadily advancing, and why your family is here at this exact moment in history. This conversation will challenge your view of success, wealth, fatherhood, and what it means to partner with God in transforming the world.Guest Links:LinkedInWebsite---------Transform Your Body with Ned & RUK Fitness: RUK FitnessThis episode is sponsored by The Adventure of FatherhoodOrder The Adventure of Fatherhood children's book hereCheck out the TEDx----------Want to learn more about The Adventure of Fatherhood?https://www.adventureoffatherhood.com/https://www.rebelandcreate.com/Each week Ned sits down with a dad and asks him to open up his field notes and share with other men who find themselves on the Adventure of Fatherhood.

Language shapes all aspects of our lives, including how we connect with our family.  Often, the more "insider" that language is, the stronger the family bonds are.  Cynthia Gordon, a professor in the linguistics department at Georgetown University and the author of "Making Meanings, Creating Family", joins us to talk about "familect" — a unique dialect particular to each and every family — and why it matters.

In this episode, Therese Markow and Sophie Lucido Johnson discuss the evolution of family and the concept of "kin" in Sophie's book "Kin: The Future of Family." They explore the isolation and loneliness in modern society, emphasizing the importance of chosen family networks, or "pods," for emotional and physical well-being. She highlights the benefits of close, non-genetic relationships, citing research showing that strong social connections can prolong life more than health habits. Sophie also addresses the challenges of maintaining friendships post-children and the mutual support needed in kin relationships, drawing parallels to primate behavior and community responses to disasters.    Key Takeaways: Digital connective tools are wonderful, but they do not take the place of human connection of conversation, and relationships.  You do not have to live with someone to create a family pod together. Living in proximity can help to share the burden and lighten the load. It is good for your mental and physical health to build relationships with those in close proximity to you. Relationships do not need to be transactional. However, by nature, there will be levels of give and take.  Commitment is not just for romantic relationships.  Planning is difficult. Be spontaneous with short time hangouts, running errands together, and a willingness to commit more deeply with your friends while being flexible. Cross-generational relationships have many benefits for all parties involved.    "There's nothing that the science has shown to prolong your life more than relationships with other people." —  Sophie Lucido Johnson   Connect with Sophie Lucido Johnson: Website: https://www.sophielucidojohnson.com/  Linktree: https://linktr.ee/sophielucidojohnson    Book: simonandschuster.com/books/Kin/Sophie-Lucido-Johnson/9781668060650  Instagram: instagram.com/sophielucidojohnson    Connect with Therese: Website: www.criticallyspeaking.net Bluesky: @CriticallySpeaking.bsky.social Instagram: @criticallyspeakingpodcast Email: theresemarkow@criticallyspeaking.net   Audio production by Turnkey Podcast Productions.

The focus centers on the National Association for Single and Divorced Families, co-founded by Ron Platt, which takes a comprehensive approach to supporting not only those currently experiencing divorce but also single parents and anyone transitioning through family change.Drawing from his extensive experience in insurance and real estate, and his personal journey as a foster parent, Ron shares the motivations behind establishing the association. He highlights the gaps he witnessed in the systems designed for families, from the struggles within foster care to the challenges faced by his former business partner in escaping an abusive marriage. This firsthand understanding helped shape a service that strives to make the process of divorce less isolating and overwhelming for everyone involved.The discussion covers a variety of practical resources available through the association, from discounted childcare and mental health support to unique solutions such as child support insurance, a product that helps ensure alimony and child support payments continue even if the payer loses their job involuntarily or becomes disabled. Affordable membership gives individuals the flexibility to choose only the services they need without additional obligation.Throughout the conversation, Ron and Mardi emphasize the importance of advocacy, community, and having a strong foundation during times of transition. About the Guest:Ron Platt is the Co-Founder of the National Association for Single and Divorced Families. They provide an umbrella of products, services, support, and resources for people who are getting a divorced, currently divorced or have a single-family household. They also have the proprietary rights to Support Insured, which is the only insurance product that guarantees child support and alimony protection if the payor dies, becomes disabled or involuntarily unemployed.To connect with Ron:Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/NASDF.org/ Website: https://www.NASDF.org Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/nasdforg/ LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/ronald-platt-a6b49016/ TikTok: NASDForg YouTube: NASDFORGAbout the Host: Mardi Winder is an ICF and BCC Executive and Leadership Coach, Certified Divorce Transition Coach, Certified Divorce Specialist (CDS®) and a Credentialed Distinguished Mediator in Texas.

Regulators Chose Brokers Over InvestorsFEATURING: The MMTLP community and the Agency Regulators that colluded to leave them with nothing.https://x.com/annvandersteel/status/2002892951899537804?s=20SHOW DESCRIPTIONMMTLP was never supposed to trade.Yet 65,000 investors—including over 200 military veterans—were allowed to buy it… then stripped of the right to sell.In this investigation and video short, Ann Vandersteel exposes how a dividend created during a corporate merger was turned into a tradable ticker, frozen by a sudden U3 halt, and quietly erased—locking families into financial ruin while regulators protected Wall Street.This wasn't a glitch.It was a decision.Behind closed doors, broker-dealer interests, a so-called “independent” regulator, and federal oversight failures converged—leaving everyday Americans trapped in a market that no longer played by its own rules.Retirements were wiped out.Businesses collapsed.Families were destroyed.And to this day, no one has been held accountable.The MMTLP story is not over.This is Steel News where truth survives pressure.Follow: ANN VANDERSTEEL https://AnnVandersteel.comSPONSORS:https://AmericanMadeFoundation.orghttps://AmericanMadeAction.orgHEALTHY FOOD & BEAUTYSUPERFOODS https://VandersteelHealth.comReady to save big on your superfoods purchase?

THE MARRIAGE OF PETER STRONG AND MARY STEVENS Colleague Barbara Weisberg. Weisbergintroduces the marriage of Peter Strong and Mary Stevens, scions of wealthy New York families. Despite a storybook beginning, they move to Peter's mother's estate in Queens to secure his inheritance. This arrangement isolates Mary, who must live among her in-laws rather than in her own home.

In 1647 Christmas vanished by the decree of the Puritans who ruled Britain. But not everyone complied. Families lit candles behind closed doors, whispered carols, and held secret services. And protestors in Canterbury launched the infamous "plum pudding riots". This was more than a fight over festivities; it was a struggle over power and belief.Prof. Suzannah Lipscomb is joined by Prof. Mark Stoyle to explore how the war on Christmas revealed a deeper contest between authority and resistance, godliness and joy, and how echoes of it can even be found in the works of C.S. Lewis and Charles Dickens.MORE:Tudor Christmas CarolsListen on AppleListen on SpotifyTudor Ghosts and Angels: Spirits of Christmas PastListen on AppleListen on SpotifyPresented by Professor Suzannah Lipscomb.

In today's episode, I sit down with Brent Gleeson, former Navy SEAL, combat veteran, entrepreneur, leadership expert, and author of his newest book All In. But this conversation isn't about résumés or accolades. It's about grief, discipline, marriage, fatherhood, and the systems that allow a man to truly live "all in" where it matters most.   Brent opens up about losing his father unexpectedly in 2023—a moment that forced deep reflection and radical change. We talk about the three pillars his dad lived by, how eliminating alcohol completely transformed Brent's marriage and leadership, and why discipline isn't about doing more—but about saying no to the wrong things. This episode is a masterclass in systems, habits, and intentional living for men who want to lead their families with clarity and conviction.     Timeline Summary: [0:00] Introducing Brent Gleeson and why this conversation goes far beyond achievements. [2:09] Losing his father in 2023 and the three pillars that shaped Brent's life. [2:57] How discipline is modeled—not preached. [3:28] Why saying yes to everything means saying no to the right things. [5:11] Family, work, and fitness as non-negotiable pillars. [8:05] The economic pressure and personal stress leading into 2023. [10:33] Being present for his father's final moments and the impact of that loss. [13:28] Going "all in" after grief and eliminating alcohol completely. [15:03] Why alcohol was no longer serving his marriage, health, or leadership. [17:21] How quitting drinking changed Brent's temperament, joy, and presence. [20:03] Larry shares his own experience stepping away from alcohol. [23:00] The cue–routine–reward framework for breaking habits. [28:39] Introducing Brent's "Remarkable Results Pyramid." [30:37] Why marriage must come first in the family system. [33:18] Committing to growth by intentionally cringing at who you were six months ago. [36:05] Why kids are always watching how parents treat each other. [39:30] Brent's 20–20–20 morning routine and disciplined evening habits. [41:25] Preparing daily to show up better as a husband, father, and leader. [46:03] Adjusting routines without abandoning discipline. [50:43] Why overscheduling kids destroys family balance. [54:27] Saying no to excessive activities and rejecting comparison parenting.     Five Key Takeaways   Discipline is about alignment, not intensity. What you say no to matters just as much as what you say yes to.  Grief can be a catalyst for clarity. Losing his father forced Brent to re-evaluate habits, priorities, and presence.  Eliminating alcohol radically improved marriage and leadership. Removing numbing behaviors created more joy, patience, and connection.  Systems create results. Whether in business, marriage, or parenting, outcomes come from well-designed systems—not willpower.  Marriage must come first. When the relationship between mom and dad is prioritized, the rest of the family system functions better.      Links & Resources Brent Gleeson's Book — https://a.co/d/7DOrJPE Dad Edge Soulmates Program: https://thedadedge.com/soulmates 1st Phorm (Dad Edge Partner): https://1stphorm.com/dadedge Episode Show Notes & Resources: http://thedadedge.com/1419 Bark Monitoring for Families: https://thedadedge.com/bark   Closing Remark If this episode challenged you to rethink discipline, habits, or what it really means to go all in as a husband and father, please rate, review, follow, and share the podcast.

On the 10th Nightmare Before Christmas… Palm Sunday is usually a day of hope and reflection, but in 1984,  East New York faced a horror it would never forget. Families were at home, children played, and neighbors went about their day, but inside 1080 Liberty Avenue, everything changed. Ten lives were lost in a single, shocking act of violence. The house was ordinary, the people inside were ordinary, yet by the end of the day, the community would never be the same.

"Public markets are behaving more like private markets. Private markets want to behave more like public markets. So actually, they're just one market.What's not the same is the level of research, information, data disclosure. Correct. That's the only difference. It's this information gap that, to us, is the single biggest opportunity now.We think over the course of the next five to 10 years, there'll be more trading venues, more liquidity providers, more market makers, more investor types—all of that. And I think what Smartkarma has always done is be the information flow for part of capital markets.In fact, that sort of 74 billion number, I think, is quite conservative. I've seen other estimates that are close to 120 billion. So it depends on what you see as sort of growth and what you see beyond. But regardless, I think it's very large numbers, and the ratio of exit to invested capital is extremely low. A 50 billion hole is a pretty big hole." - Raghav Kapoor, CEO of SmartkarmaRaghav Kapoor, CEO & co-founder of Smartkarma, joined us for a conversation on the launch of PvtIQ and the structural transformation of Asia's private markets. Drawing from his experience building Smartkarma's independent research platform, Raghav explained how client demand for pre-IPO coverage led to creating PvtIQ, an intelligence platform designed to bridge the critical information gap in Southeast Asia's private markets. We discussed the striking imbalance where $74 billion has been invested into the region's tech ecosystem but only $23 billion has been returned through exits, highlighting the urgent need for better data infrastructure and price discovery. Raghav shared unique insights on how families dominate the region's investment landscape, why private and public markets are converging into one, and his vision for PvtIQ to become the intelligence backbone supporting companies, investors, and regulators in bringing more transparency and efficiency to Asia's rapidly evolving private market ecosystem.Episode Highlights:[00:00] Quote of the Day by Raghav Kapoor[00:57]] Smartkarma launches PvtIQ for Asia's private markets[03:11]] Investors requesting coverage three years before IPO[04:08]] Supporting MAS equity market development program[05:24]] Singapore's public markets languished despite private growth[06:13]] Path from fundraising to public listing explained[08:37]] $74 billion invested, only $23 billion exits[09:45]] Companies need support to achieve IPO readiness[11:00]] Capital chasing deals shifted to improving disclosure[11:57]] Southeast Asia's extreme market fragmentation challenges[13:23]] Families dominate and influence Southeast Asian markets[14:38]] Lack of data creates serious structural challenges[19:01]] Private market investors transitioning from momentum investing[20:18]] Digital banks provide disclosure model for research[21:24]] Late stage private rounds resemble public IPOs[23:26]] Liquidity without information is just volatility[24:06]] Private and public markets converging into one[25:30]] Information gap is the single biggest opportunity[27:00]] Private market research TAM already $8 billion[28:57]] What great looks like: intelligence backbone for Asia's private markets[30:57]] ClosingProfile: Raghav Kapoor, CEO and co-founder, SmartkarmaLinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/ragkap/Podcast Information: Bernard Leong hosts and produces the show.
