If you grew up here in California, you've likely visited a neighborhood that goes all out for Christmas. We're talking decorations on the roof in the front yard and lining the street. In Fresno, that neighborhood is known as Christmas Tree Lane during the holidays. Groups of families or friends get in their cars and drive down the street, blasting the Christmas radio station. Or they pick one of the walking days, stop at the Starbucks just outside the neighborhood, and walk the lane to really soak up its Christmas magic.

In Episode 620, Patrick Lay from Dark Horse's upcoming Death Strikes: The Emperor of Atlantis graphic novel along with a holiday tradition! Patrick and I talk about this timely and timeless original graphic novel from him as artist and journalist Dave Maas, due in bookstores on January 23 and in comics shops on January 24. It's described this way: “From 1941 to 1945, the Nazis operated a concentration camp called Terezín (or Theresienstadt) 30 miles outside Prague in what is modern-day Czech Republic. The former fortress town was home to many Jewish artists, writers, musicians, dramatists, actors, and other intellectuals. More than 140,000 people passed through Terezín during the war, and while only a few thousand outlived the Nazi regime, a vast amount of their writings, compositions and artworks survived to tell their stories. This graphic novel is based on one of these works, Peter Kien and Viktor Ullmann's opera Der Kaiser von Atlantis, which Kien and Ullmann did not live to see performed. Through satire and fantasy, the narrative presents many lessons for modern society on war and technology, but its greatest lesson is that none of us must ever forget that beauty and humor can be found even in the face of doom.” We discuss how this book came to be, what else Patrick is working on, and the importance of this story for today's world. Then everything wraps up with my annual holiday tradition, playing the audio from ‘Twas the Dark Knight Before Christmas! You can see the video at this link! Don't miss next week's episode as we wrap up 2023 with another terrific conversation with another great comics professional!

Is Santa Claus a fun holiday tradition or a harmful lie?Critics of Santa argue that using a fictional character to judge behavior and the idea of a naughty and nice list is not only ineffective, but moreover teaches children to behave only to avoid being on the naughty list. And this messaging may even have a negative impact on children in the longterm.Many parents are worried. So what does the research tell us? Does Santa encourage good behavior? Is it lying to encourage a belief in Santa? Will children be upset when they find out the truth? And can parents encourage children to believe for longer?Let's find out! ------Sign up for the Parenting Translator Substack, and follow along on Instagram.Parenting Translator is hosted by Dr. Cara Goodwin and is produced by Earfluence.Dr. Cara Goodwin, Ph.D., is a child psychologist and mother to three children who "translates" research on parenting and child development into information that is accurate, relevant, and useful to parents.

In this episode of The Chalene Show Podcast, hosted by Chalene Johnson and featuring her husband Bret, the couple shares their cherished family holiday tradition known as "10 Envelopes." Join them as they describe the beautiful practice of writing heartfelt letters and gifting them, along with small tokens of kindness, to strangers during the holiday season. Discover how this tradition brings their family closer together and spreads joy to others in unexpected places. Chalene and Bret recount the initial challenges and resistance they faced, especially from their children, who found the idea of approaching strangers uncomfortable. However, their approach of starting with simple greetings and only giving envelopes to those who genuinely connect with them has led to countless heartwarming encounters. Tune in to hear an unforgettable story about a travel mishap that highlights the power of kindness. Learn how a generous airline worker, who had received an envelope earlier, paid it forward in the most touching way. Through their anecdotes and experiences, Chalene and Bret aim to inspire listeners to embrace the spirit of giving and kindness during the holidays. Join them in the movement to spread positivity by using the hashtag #10Envelopes on social media. This episode is a reminder that the simple act of sharing joy and gratitude can have a profound impact, making the holiday season truly special. Watch this episode on YouTube!
