Every President and First Lady does something to make the nation's executive mansion their home. For the Polks, it was almost puritan customs, a key bit of redecoration, and an undercurrent of slavery. Plus the local news for December 29, 2025 and a big year for Nashville transit. Credits: This is a production of Nashville Public RadioHost/producer: Nina CardonaEditor: LaTonya TurnerAdditional support: Mack Linebaugh, Tony Gonzalez, Megan Jones and the staff of WPLN and WNXP

As we close out 2025 and look ahead to a brand-new year, this episode with Frankie Rowley, First Lady of The Rock Church in Laurel, MS, is a reminder we all need: God's timing is perfect, and His faithfulness never fails. Even in the waiting, the wondering, and the moments that feel uncertain, God is working—often in ways we can't yet see.In today's conversation, we reflect on how God meets both our needs and the desires of our hearts, not according to our timelines, but according to His divine purpose. This episode is meant to encourage you if you've been praying, hoping, or believing for something that hasn't happened yet. God hears you. He sees you. And He is faithful to respond.She shares through a powerful 52-Day Testimony—that when we remain faithful, consistent, and obedient in prayer, God moves. Sometimes quickly, sometimes quietly, but always intentionally. His promises are not delayed; they are perfectly timed.As you step into 2026, know this: you are not going alone. God is already there, going before you, walking beside you, and covering you with His peace, guidance, and provision.If you need encouragement to trust the process, to stay faithful in the waiting, and to believe that God is still working on your behalf—this episode is for you.

Listen Online: About this episode: The First Lady of Nutrition welcomes Tamera Campbell, a dear friend and revered acquaintance. Tamera is the founder of E3LIVE, and the conversation begins in a remote mountain lake in southern Oregon—one of the only places in the world where a rare, nutrient-dense blue-green algae can be harvested sustainably. In this episode, Tamera shares the story behind E3LIVE and explains what makes its signature ingredient, Aphanizomenon flos-aquae (AFA), so special—from its exceptional purity and rigorous testing to its unique ability to support brain function, mental clarity, immune health, digestion, and cellular nourishment. Ann Louise and Tamera also explore why professional and recreational athletes have gravitated toward AFA for its natural anti-inflammatory properties, recovery support, and sustained energy. They break down the science behind blue-green algae's rare blue pigment—sometimes called the “molecule of love” for how it interacts with the brain—and explain why it's gentle enough for children and infants, yet effective for those with high physical demands.   Learn more about E3Live at https://e3live.com/?bg_ref=rZg8FMANhuThe post The Extraordinary Power of Blue-Green Algae first appeared on Ann Louise Gittleman, PhD, CNS.

UnCabaret founder and host, Beth Lapides, talks about creating the show to have a place to perform then how it shifted to a place where she nurtured Taylor Negron, Judy Toll, Patton Oswalt, Margaret Cho, Bob Odenkirk, Janeane Garofalo, and everyone else to be the best performer they could. She talks about how to be creative and how to stop getting in your own way, how life is change and change is good.  She finds joy in pulling weeds and eating just the right amount of pizza. Bio:  BETH LAPIDES works at the intersection of comedy, creativity and consciousness. She is the creator, host and producer of the legendary, genre shifting, UnCabaret - widely considered to be the original “alt-comedy” show. The LA Times called her the ‘godmother of alternative comedy.” She's produced UnCab for Comedy Central, Amazon Studios, audible etc. And created its spin offs Say The Word and The Other Network. UnCabaret continues to help launch and relaunch some of your favorite iconic comedic voices. Beth is the author of Recorded Books' original audio book “So You Need To Decide,” which was on Vulture's Top 10 Comedy Books of 2022 and which Variety called “a potentially life-changing treasure.” Her first published book, “Did I Wake You? Haiku For Modern Living,” opened the door to a wave of comedy haiku. Her very first books were handmade artist books and were shown, among other places at the Metropolitan Museum of Art. Her wide ranging muti-disciplinary career has included writing for O Magazine, correspondent-ing on NPR's All Things Considered, touring her solo shows – currently It's A Lot – hosting a daily radio show for Comedy World, shepherding an extremely short lived talk show for MTV, developing a pilot with an Emmy award winning producer, hosting a podcast called Life and Beth, and running a campaign to make First Lady an elected position. An occasional actress, she was the first guest star on Will and Grace and the performance artist on Sex and The City – and has appeared in many indie films most often as an offbeat authority figure. Beth had a parallel career as a teacher and muse, known for her ability to help creators find their authentic voice – understand their own process, transform, complete and produce their work. She's gone from teaching comedians to coaching a vast array of creatives - currently in a framework called The Infinite Creator.

Look, it's not as "woke" as you might think, but this is the story of a young woman, and the mantle of being Santa that was kind of thrust upon her.

Yeah, we kind of know how it's gonna go from very early on, but who cares? It's Christmas, y'all.Three to go after this one. Oooh, we're close now!

America's shortest presidency produced one of its most overlooked First Ladies. Anna Harrison didn't even make it to the White House before William Henry Harrison skipped wearing a coat to his inauguration, caught a cold, and died from pneumonia just 31 days later. Shaped by revolution and a New York education, Anna defied expectations, from eloping against her father's wishes to running school on the Ohio frontier. Her story is a reminder that history is often shaped by the women it overlooks.

Weihnachten hat in den USA einen hohen Stellenwert. Davon zeugt allein schon die Tradition, dass die First Lady das Weisse Haus nach ihrem Geschmack dekorieren lässt. 51 Weihnachtsbäume, 213 Meter Girlanden, 75 Kränze, 54 Kilogramm Lebkuchen, mehr als 2000 Lichterketten und 2800 – natürlich – goldene Sterne schmücken gemäss Agenturen das Anwesen. Konkurrenz machte dem einzig Jill Biden, die zuletzt mehr als 80 Bäume aufstellen liess. Thema des diesjährigen Weihnachtsfestes sei «Zu Hause ist, wo das Herz ist», teilte Melania Trump mit.Am Herzen liegt Weihnachten auch Gatte Donald. Seinen Slogan «Make America Great Again» hat er entsprechend angepasst. «Make Christmas Great Again» ziert Weihnachtskarten mit dem Präsidenten. Er habe «Weihnachten zurückgebracht», sagte Donald Trump kürzlich bei einem Auftritt in Pennsylvania. «Die radikale Linke wollte das Wort Weihnachten abschaffen.» Jetzt aber sage wieder jeder «Frohe Weihnachten».Auch Trump-Kritikerinnen und -Kritiker instrumentalisieren die Geburt Jesu. So stellte eine katholische Kirche in der Nähe von Boston, Massachusetts, eine Krippe mit Maria, Joseph und den Hirten auf. Was fehlte, war das Jesuskind in der Krippe. Darüber stand ein Schild mit der Aufschrift: «ICE was here.» Eine Anspielung auf die Immigrationsbehörde «United States Immigration and Customs Enforcement» (ICE), die Zehntausende illegale Einwanderer verhaftete und ausschaffte.Tina Kempin Reuter, Professorin in Birmingham, Alabama, steckt mitten in den Weihnachtsvorbereitungen. Und sie verkauft sogar selbst Christbäume. Können sich die Amerikanerinnen und Amerikaner einen Christbaum leisten angesichts der gestiegenen Preise? Wie erlebt sie den Kulturkampf um Weihnachten in Trumps Amerika? Und sagt sie nun «Merry Christmas» oder «Happy Holiday», wenn sie frohe Weihnachten wünscht? Darüber unterhält sich Christof Münger, Leiter des Ressorts International, mit Kempin Reuter in einer neuen Folge des USA-Podcasts «Alles klar, Amerika?».

In this episode with Tiffany Bonilla, First Lady of Capital Church in Tallahassee, Florida, we talk about the importance of staying connected to The Source. We discuss what it truly means to find joy and contentment during the holiday season, and where beyond the decorations, the to-do lists, and the pressure to make everything “perfect.” We talk about slowing down long enough to notice the little moments that matter, how to guard your heart from comparison—especially in a social-media-driven world—and practical ways to cultivate gratitude and peace in the middle of the busyness.She shares simple, meaningful ideas for creating memories that last, not because they're elaborate, but because they're filled with connection, intention, and love. This conversation is an invitation to pause, breathe, and rediscover the joy that Jesus brings into every part of the season.

The First Lady brings joy to kids at a hospital, the President highlights Jesus at the national tree lighting, 62,000 kids found and rescued, tariff revenue breaks a new record, plus good news on taxes, RFK's new vaccine panel no longer recommends Hep B shots for newborn babies, gas prices are the lowest in five years, and other important news you care about!

Christian Benford made an all-time memorable play and we'll need more from him and others as the playoffs approach. Rob thinks that the game this Sunday matters regardless of our Bills' chances to win the AFCE because it will serve as a reminder of who we are while also serving notice to NE of who they are not! Mindset plays a big role in professional sports and letting NE know on the eve of the playoffs that they still aren't on our level can go a long way.Can we get a pass rush, please?!?!?! Joey Bosa is set to return Sunday for the game and not a moment too soon as the Bills struggled to even lay a hand on Burrow last week. Can he provide the juice needed to affect Drake Maye?NICKEL CITY CREW TAILGATE REPORTSponsored by: Queen City VintageRob & DT talk aboht how Christmas is in the air at both of their houses despite Rob being a Grinch while DT shares a cool emotional story about the Jamestown Christmas Parade he just attended.Rob shares his menu from last week and what's on deck for Sunday against the team he can't stand the most.And we're about to be Aunts & Uncles Bills Mafia as we broke on the show that 17 & Hailee are expecting their first child. Congratulations to QB1 and the First Lady of The Mafia!!!

Listen Online: About this episode: The First Lady of Nutrition welcomes Dr. Jeremy Chatfield, DDS of Northwest Natural Dentistry, for a fascinating deep dive into one of the most overlooked foundations of detox and overall health: sleep. Dr. Chatfield (a/k/a The Sleep Dentist) explains why activating the brain for peak detoxification begins with high-quality sleep—and how hidden sleep-breathing disorders can quietly push the body into a constant fight-or-flight state. Together, Ann Louise and Dr. Chatfield unpack the surprising role of tongue ties (a major yet often missed cause of sleep apnea and snoring), why nasal breathing is essential for brain and body repair, and how airway dysfunction can ripple into everything from fatigue to inflammation. Listeners will learn how modern solutions like orthodontics, laser therapy, and myofunctional exercises can restore proper breathing—and why nutrition plays a pivotal role in calming airway irritation. Ann Louise also highlights her go-to natural antihistamine, Luteolin, which outperforms many over-the-counter options without the unwanted side effects. If you've been struggling with poor sleep, snoring, mouth breathing, or unexplained fatigue, this episode offers practical, actionable insights you won't want to miss. Learn more about Dr. Chatfield's work at: https://justbreathedds.com/The post Why Nasal Breathing is Non Negotiable for Deep Sleep and Detox first appeared on Ann Louise Gittleman, PhD, CNS.

According to a foreign policy and political analyst, Donald Trump appears to realize that he doesn't have much time left on earth due to his failing health, and Trump is making moves that show he knows the end is near. For example, his attempts to name buildings after himself suggests that he's now obsessing over his legacy, along with his desire to win awards (even fake ones) to showcase for years after he's gone.As Americans are cutting back on their grocery purchases due to the skyrocketing cost of food, the First Lady of the United States is hawking luxury handbags through her social media accounts. The purses cost thousands of dollars a piece, and Melania Trump didn't think that it was in poor taste to not only try to sell them, but to do so while Americans are blaming her husband for the rising costs of everything. This is the ultimate "failure to read the room" moment.Donald Trump has been trying to get late night comedian Jimmy Kimmel off the air for years, and he almost succeeded a few months ago. Unfortunately for Trump, the viewers made it clear that they want Kimmel to stick around for a while, and Disney/ABC rewarded Kimmel with a contract extension this week, guaranteeing that he'll be on the air for the rest of the time that Trump is in office. That has to sting for Trump, as he sees his influence waning across the board.The Trump administration has an evil new plan for more immigration raids ahead of the holidays - and they're using Trump's promise to migrants to trick them into getting themselves deported. The plan involves putting hordes of ICE agents at the border in order to catch people who are VOLUNTARILY leaving the country to go visit their families for the holidays. This means that anyone who takes up Trump's offer of $1,000 to "self-deport" would be swept up in these raids and lose out on the promised money. During one of the most bizarre interviews that Donald Trump has ever given, he claimed that his fix for healthcare will "work like magic." His so-called fix is literally just doing the same thing that is being done right now, but somehow he said things are just going to magically be fixed. This is coming from the leader of the Party that has been promising a healthcare plan alternative to Obamacare for a decade and a half, and now we have to trust them to use "magic" to fix the problem? Donald Trump is allowing (and encouraging) his administration to commit war crimes in order to (allegedly) stop the flow of drugs into the United States. He's even preparing to launch a war in Venezuela over drug dealers. But the reality is that no one is flooding the streets with more dealers than Trump is, as he has pardoned or granted clemency to over 100 people charged with drug crimes since retaking office in January. Trump talks a big game, but the reality is that no one is allowing more criminals to roam our streets than he is.Text and and let us know your thoughts on today's stories!Subscribe to our YouTube channel to stay up to date on all of Farron's content: https://www.youtube.com/FarronBalancedFollow Farron on social media!

The filing comes from a major civil action in the Southern District of New York brought by six Jane Doe plaintiffs, each suing individually and on behalf of others similarly situated, against a wide array of defendants tied to the U.S. Virgin Islands government. The defendants include the Government of the USVI, former governors, senators, the First Lady, the Attorney General, congressional delegate Stacey Plaskett, and up to 100 unnamed individuals. The lawsuit is part of the broader litigation concerning the role USVI officials allegedly played in enabling, protecting, or benefiting from Jeffrey Epstein's operations in the territory. This particular document is a memorandum of law submitted by the plaintiffs' attorneys at Merson Law, PLLC, and it signals that the plaintiffs are actively expanding and refining their claims as new information continues to surface.Specifically, the plaintiffs are asking the court for permission to amend their complaint under Federal Rule of Civil Procedure 15(a)(3) and to obtain targeted discovery related to jurisdiction and venue. In short, they are arguing that additional facts and defendants need to be formally added to the record and that limited discovery is necessary to establish why the SDNY is the appropriate forum for the case. The motion reflects the plaintiffs' position that the alleged misconduct by USVI officials is broader and more interconnected than originally understood and that formal discovery will reveal further evidence of systemic failures and complicity. By seeking leave to amend and pushing for early jurisdictional discovery, the plaintiffs are attempting to ensure that the case proceeds on its full factual footing rather than being constrained by procedural defenses raised by the USVI and individual defendants.to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.comsource:gov.uscourts.nysd.610915.94.1.pdfBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-epstein-chronicles--5003294/support.

Today, you're in for a special treat—we're replaying Episode 56 with Sister Mandie Holmes, First Lady of First Pentecostal Church of North Little Rock, AR.In this episode, we talk about the importance of avoiding comparisons during the holiday season and in motherhood. Every family and every individual experiences Christmas differently, and comparing ourselves to others only creates unnecessary stress and feelings of inadequacy. This is your reminder to embrace your own unique journey and focus on the joy and connection the holidays bring, rather than measuring yourself against perceived expectations.We pray this season brings you happiness, fulfillment, meaningful memories, and an abundance of love. And we hope this episode reminds you that no to-do list and no amount of money spent can bring joy like the simple, irreplaceable gift of time and love.

Before Hacks and The Marvelous Mrs. Maisel, there was the comedienne who started it all. First Lady of Laughs: The Forgotten Story of Jean Carroll (NYU Press, 2024) tells the story of Jean Carroll, the first Jewish woman to become a star in the field we now call stand-up comedy. Though rarely mentioned among the pantheon of early stand-up comics such as Henny Youngman and Lenny Bruce, Jean Carroll rivaled or even outshone the male counterparts of her heyday, playing more major theaters than any other comedian of her period. In addition to releasing a hit comedy album, Girl in a Hot Steam Bath, and briefly starring in her own sitcom on ABC, she also made twenty-nine appearances on The Ed Sullivan Show.Carroll made enduring changes to the genre of stand-up comedy, carving space for women and modeling a new form of Jewish femininity with her glamorous, acculturated, but still recognizably Jewish persona. She innovated a newly conversational, intimate style of stand-up, which is now recognized in comics like Joan Rivers, Sarah Silverman, and Tiffany Haddish. When Carroll was ninety-five she was honored at the Friars Club in New York City, where celebrities like Joy Behar and Lily Tomlin praised her influence on their craft. But her celebrated career began as an impoverished immigrant child, scrounging for talent show prize money to support her family.Drawing on archival footage, press clippings, and Jean Carroll's personal scrapbook, First Lady of Laughs restores Jean Carroll's remarkable story to its rightful place in the lineage of comedy history and Jewish American performance.

This November, the duo teamed up to document the details of that journey in the new book The Look. On this episode of Nice Talk, Koop delves into her journey to becoming Mrs. Obama's stylist, the surprising elements she had to consider when crafting an outfit (podiums were a big deal, for example), and what life post–White House has meant for Mrs. Obama's style.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

Tonight on NJ Spotlight News, a public school in Monmouth County is turning into a political battleground, after it was announced that US Education Secretary Linda McMahon is heading to Cedar Drive Middle School in Colts Neck on Friday.   Plus, we talk with Jersey City Mayor-elect James Solomon about how running against the political machine scored him a major victory in Tuesday's election.   Also, as lawmakers move to scale back the powers of New Jersey's top watchdog, we dig deeper into the agency's role and the kind of corruption it uncovers.   And, Tammy Murphy reflects on her legacy as First Lady and what's next as she and the Governor near the end their tenure.   

12.2.25 | "A Mind For The Miraculous" | First Lady Barbara Williams by The Rock Church of Fort Myers

What does it take to keep becoming? We dive into Michelle Obama's memoir with a candid, hopeful conversation about where identity starts, how it stretches, and why purpose, not pageantry, changes lives. Becoming is more than a political memoir; it's a field guide for growth when the ground shifts under your feet. From a tight-knit South Side home to Princeton lecture halls and the relentless spotlight of the White House, we follow the real work behind “Becoming”: respecting kids as full people, naming systemic barriers without losing heart, and finding tools for reflection that actually fit your life. We talk about confidence as a practice, not a trait, and the power of saying yes to yourself when the room says no. You'll hear how Michelle reframed the First Lady role around substance and how those choices challenged corporate norms while building common ground. We also get real about the invisible labor of women, the racialized scrutiny that followed her every outfit and sentence, and the line that still echoes: grief and resilience live together.  If news fatigue has dimmed your hope, this episode offers practical ways to protect it: curate your inputs, seek help when you need it, and anchor to community. We share simple habits: quiet walks, gratitude notes, honest check-ins that keep optimism alive without ignoring pain. It's a warm, grounded tour through the memoir's biggest lessons on leadership, partnership, and civic action, designed for anyone asking how to stay human and useful when progress stalls.  Come for the stories; leave with a sturdier stance. If this conversation resonates, tap follow, share it with a friend, and leave a quick review to help others find the show.Support the show:On Patreon Buy us a book Buy cute merchIf you have any comments or questions, please connect with me on Instagram or email babesinbooklandpodcast@gmail.com.

Better Icelandic proficiency means higher pay.New Hospital Being Built, But Will There Be A Helipad?The most expensive building in Iceland's history, a new hospital in Reykjavík, will be opened in 2030 according to plans. However, issues remained unsolved regarding a helipad for said hospital. In an interview this weekend, minister of Health Alma Möller told RÚV that the plan is either to build a helipad on top of one of the buildings of the new hospital, or to acquire a plot of land near by the hospital, probably near the BSÍ Bus Terminal, for that purpose. Two Tourists Rescued  North Of Torfajökull On Saturday night two tourists, driving god-knows-how  north of Torfajökull in the Icelandic highlands, got their Suzuki Jimny stuck in the river Dalakvísl.

On this episode of the podcast Marc Beckman, author of “Some Future Day,” CEO of DMA United and longtime advisor to First Lady Melania Trump reveals why he calls her “the First Lady of Technology” and how she is quietly leading one of the most innovative tech revolutions in American public life.Beckman pulls back the curtain on the creation of Melania Trump's groundbreaking AI-generated audiobook, “Melania,” calling her synthetic voice “uncanny and perfect,” adding how every space, every breath and every pronunciation was personally approved by the First Lady of the United States. The successful businessman also highlights Mrs. Trump's visionary leadership in foster-care reform. Beckman recounts being at the White House as she and President Trump signed the executive order behind her “Fostering the Future” initiative — a mission to help foster youth achieve financial autonomy through education, technology and opportunity.While Beckman also discusses the broader AI landscape, geopolitical risks, and America's technological edge, this episode is ultimately a tribute to Melania Trump's forward-thinking impact. A woman who, as Beckman notes, was ‘the first major political figure to use blockchain technology,' the mind behind her own NFT collection, and now the force powering one of the most sophisticated AI audio projects in the country.You can get your hands on Marc Beckman's latest book titled, “Some Future Day” by searching for it on Amazon.
