Today's battles over Christianity in U.S. public schools have deep roots. In the nineteenth century, disputes were largely between Protestants and later-arriving Catholics, but in 1905 Jews entered the conflict in a dramatic way. That Christmas, Frank Harding, a Presbyterian principal in Brooklyn, urged his Jewish students to be more like Jesus. For Orthodox activist Albert Lucas, already fighting Christian settlement houses that sought to convert Jewish children, Harding's remarks were the last straw. He accused the public schools of illegal proselytizing, and Jewish leaders quickly mobilized, petitioning for Harding's removal and demanding clear limits on religious practices in public education—limits they argued were violated by Bible readings, the Lord's Prayer, religious imagery, and Christmas pageants. When the New York Board of Education refused to act decisively, Jewish parents staged a citywide boycott of the 1906 school Christmas pageants, keeping as many as three-quarters of students home in some neighborhoods. The board briefly barred sectarian hymns and religious material, but the decision provoked a fierce antisemitic backlash, framed in the press as a Jewish attack on Christmas, and most of the restrictions were soon reversed. The Great Christmas Boycott of 1906: Antisemitism and the Battle Over Christianity in the Public Schools (U Nebraska Press, 2025) shows how this conflict—over law, tradition, and the place of religion in public schools—has never truly ended. With decisive victories elusive, Jewish organizations today have shifted toward other, more strategic ways of confronting Christian nationalism. Scott D. Seligman is a writer and historian. He is the author of numerous books, including The Great Kosher Meat War of 1902: Immigrant Housewives and the Riots That Shook New York City (Potomac Books, 2020), the award-winning The Third Degree: The Triple Murder That Shook Washington and Changed American Criminal Justice (Potomac Books, 2018), and The First Chinese American: The Remarkable Life of Wong Chin Foo.

Great Christmas message from the KJV Bible!
This Church Plus, Tim explores the carol O Come, O Come, Emmanuel and shows why Jesus is the greatest Christmas gift of all. Emmanuel means “God with us,” and Tim explains how Jesus didn't just arrive as a symbol, but as God Himself, coming to open the way back to God for us. What may seem small or insignificant at first turns out to be the most valuable gift imaginable — God with us, here to save, restore, and invite us into relationship with Him. This Christmas, the greatest gift isn't found under the tree, but in unwrapping and trusting Jesus.

Gary continues speaking with Rick Welch of The Burros of Berea podcast about Christmas movies. Gary gives a lot of background information about several more films, including Die Hard, Home Alone, and The Three Godfathers. These older films are often dismissed as being "out of touch," but Gary shows that this is far from the truth. They are great lessons about both life and history (among other topics).

Season Seven of The Common Bridge features host Richard Helppie in an episode that concludes with foaming mayonnaise dispensers in this lighter, story-driven talk with Tony Award–winning actor Gregory Jbara and longtime friend, designer-turned-humorist Terence Duncan, celebrating Duncan's new book, Unfiltered Consciousness. This special episode leans heavily into Greg and Terry's reminisces about coming-of-age in blue collar Southeast Michigan. Rich attempts to guide a conversation but mostly promotes the notion that people everywhere should purchase this book. Hear this duo talk school plays, football mishaps, Great Lakes roadtrips and shared crushes. Duncan describes his book as a collection of brief, satirical “musings” on everyday absurdities—relationships, divorce, coffee habits, T‑shirts, car ads, and aging—each rooted in truth then exaggerated for comic effect. Jbara praises the honesty, humanity, and universal relatability of the pieces, noting how Duncan turns personal pain into cathartic comedy. Helppie underscores that this is a laugh-out-loud, highly giftable read for anyone wanting a break from divisive politics. Terence and Gregory will also appear at Silvio's Trattoria, 225 S. Canton Center, Canton, Michigan, on December 8th from 6:30–8:00 p.m for a book signing event! Great Christmas gift!Support the showEngage the conversation on Substack at The Common Bridge!
This morning, I'm going to pretty much let Toss Grumley do the opener for me. Who's Toss Grumley? Well, Toss is a New Zealand business advisor and investor. The Post has run an editorial he wrote, bemoaning the Christmas shutdown. In it he said New Zealand's Christmas break has started to become way too extreme, and it's impacting our productivity on an individual business level and at the level of the economy. The summer break, he says, seems to be extending, leaving less room for leave later in the year. But the most concerning part is the circle back mid-February mentality, which means that while many are at work, they aren't doing much productive work. And the mentality of circle back Feb seems to start late November or early December. He says having 10 weeks of no productive conversation simply isn't good for business. He points out our productivity has grown at around 1.2% per year since 1996, while Australia's has grown at around 1.8%, and we're getting left behind. We need to work longer as we're producing less. We are 30 to 40% below top performers like the US, Norway, and Ireland. He also points out that March and April are the peak months for business arrears. This, he says, is not by chance, it's driven by business habits over December and January. Additionally, our GDP quarterly volatility is in the top third of the OECD. Again, he says, this is the Christmas season. For retail, we have a huge October to December quarter, then everyone stops spending all of January, creating cash flow problems for our businesses. He says while we all need to recuperate at times, in a country where our recovery is so fragile, we need to work hard up to the break, take some well-deserved time off, then get back into it and get our lives and businesses moving again swiftly. Thank you very much Toss and The Post for doing the heavy lifting on the editorial for me this morning. He does have a point though, doesn't he? Because we have our very own Mike Hosking who's, even as I speak, roaring down the motorway in his fine European vehicle, heading off on his hols before December's been here for a week. The Chrissy decks have barely been put up around the office, and he's gone. And it's unsettling for people when the routine is disrupted. I myself will be heading off – I don't go until the 19th, but I won't be back for a while. Most of January I'll be gone. It's a long time. They're the sort of holidays I could only dream of when I was a junior woodchuck reporter. Penny and Robert, our favourite coffee shop downstairs, they're paying rent on their space. They don't stop paying rent over Christmas and New Year, so they'll be back. Heaven knows who'll be around to buy the coffees and the excellent muffins that Helen barely ever touches because our people are clearing off apart from a skeleton staff. The council offices over the road will be deserted too, I imagine, apart from the skeleton staff. I'd be really interested to hear from you as to what you want. If you are one of the many, many small business owners, small to medium business owners, do you work like a navy right up until Christmas Eve, and then think, thank heavens, put the closed sign up on the shop and head off for three weeks, four weeks, and think, no, I'm not doing anything over January. I'm done. Do you wish that you could take two weeks off, recover, and then come back and everybody else came back too and business as usual, like Toss is saying. He got a fair bit of flak for this when he posted this initially on LinkedIn. People were really grumpy, saying he begrudged people holidays. And he doesn't. He says he just wishes they were spaced out throughout the year, rather than having the great Christmas shutdown. Do people order their bathroom or kitchen renos in December and January, or do you wait until February? Is it a case of, oh well, might as well take the time off because my supplier's taken the time off and customers aren't responding to calls, and then it becomes a domino effect. One topples and the next thing, you know, we all fall over and lie in the sand with a cool drink by our side, thinking, well, circle back February. How many weeks for you is optimum for a holiday? How many would you like other people to take? When it comes to the schools and the teachers, when it comes to radio stations and the hosts, when it comes to businesses, when it comes to suppliers. Is it six weeks, four weeks, three weeks? What to you would be the optimum? See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Cathy and Todd discuss Die Hard, the 1988 action classic that redefined the genre, covering everything from its Christmas Eve plot and iconic Nakatomi Plaza setting to the film's surprisingly heartfelt themes of family, reconciliation, and love. They discuss why so many (including Cathy) consider it a Christmas movie, break down the characters and casting surprises, highlight the film's legacy and genre-shaping influence, and share the behind-the-scenes stories that made Bruce Willis's hero an unexpected cultural icon. From Hans Gruber's unforgettable villainy to the film's “Die Hard in a ____” effect across decades of action films, it's a nostalgic and big-hearted look at why this movie endures and why so many of us return to it every holiday season.

Ryan joins us to kick off the first UPtv Christmas movie of the season, The Great Christmas Snow-In.ABOUT THE GREAT CHRISTMAS SNOW-INJustin retreats to a cabin meant for his honeymoon, but is snowed in with Jane, his ex-fiancée's cousin. A spark forms between them, and when Justin's ex shows up with her new boyfriend, secrets and discoveries about love and second chances are revealed.AIR DATE & NETWORK FOR THE GREAT CHRISTMAS SNOW-INNovember 2 2025 | UPtvCAST & CREW OF THE GREAT CHRISTMAS SNOW-INJoey Lawrence as JustinAmanda Fuller as JaneRicardo Chavez as AlejandroMelina Alves as AddyBRAN'S THE GREAT CHRISTMAS SNOW-IN SYNOPSISThe movie kicks off with a woman walking up to a cabin, trying to get in. It turns out there's already a man there. Her name is Jane, and his name is Justin. Jane is actually the cousin of Justin's ex-girlfriend.Here's what happened: Justin and his fiancée had planned to come to the cabin for their honeymoon, but they broke up. Justin still decides to go, and Jane, assuming the cabin was empty, came to work on a writing retreat. She's a romance novelist, hoping for some quiet time to write. It turns out Justin is there for a similar reason—he's a songwriter.Justin tells Jane she can stay and work on her writing while he does his own thing. He becomes interested in her work, and while reading her book, he imagines himself in her story, picturing romantic scenarios with her. He compliments her writing and suggests they collaborate on a song. Jane writes some lyrics, they sing together, and realize they make a great creative team.Justin opens up about his breakup with his fiancée, Addy. Jane reassures him that he dodged a bullet. Just as they begin exploring their feelings for each other, Addy shows up with her new boyfriend—turns out they also booked the cabin. Justin suggests they stay the night and leave in the morning, but they wake up snowed in.Addy encourages Justin to hash things out with her, and he does, leading to a near-kiss with Jane—though she accidentally falls off the balcony. Meanwhile, Addy begins to notice the chemistry between Justin and Jane and grows jealous, especially since she wants to collaborate with him on music again. When she hears him playing the keyboard, she flirts with him physically. Justin resists, saying he doesn't want to repeat past mistakes. Jane overhears part of this conversation, misunderstanding that he still has feelings for Addy.This doesn't stop Addy from telling Jane that she is falling for Justin again and mentioning the beautiful song they just wrote together. Justin clears things up with Jane, who admits she's nervous because Addy has stolen her boyfriend before.Addy ultimately decides she wants to pursue Justin again, which leads to a chaotic dance battle between Alejandro (her current boyfriend) and Justin, resulting in Justin getting knocked out. When he wakes, he sees Jane and tells her he loves her.Addy makes one final attempt to get back with Justin but ultimately realizes he only has eyes for Jane. She decides to give things another try with Alejandro.Stranded at the cabin for Christmas, everyone shares a holiday dinner and reflects on what they're thankful for. The movie ends with Addy and Alejandro leaving, Jane and Justin sharing a kiss, him calling it a “magnanimous moment,” and her responding, “You said you loved me,” before fading to black.

Okay, this week on the Own Your Intuition Show, we'll be enjoying a Christmas tree that is about 45 years old now. The crazy thing is that it still lives on BIG AND BOLD in my memory—not for the moments it twinkled and shown—but for its CRAZY exit. Though, its entrance wasn't bad either as far a spectacular goes!I hope you enjoy this light and funny story as much as I have been for the last many decades!I hope your holidays are nourishing and bright. I hope you get ALL THE REST and ALL THE LOVE to fill up your heart and soul.With great love,Aimée
Gary continues speaking with Rick Welch of The Burros of Berea podcast about Christmas movies. Gary gives a lot of background information about several more films, including Die Hard, Home Alone, and The Three Godfathers. These older films are often dismissed as being "out of touch," but Gary shows that this is far from the truth. They are great lessons about both life and history (among other topics).

These older films can often be dismissed as "out of touch," but Gary shows that this is far from the truth. They are great lessons about both life and history (among other topics).
