Alonso IS BACK to review Mistletoe Murders: Death of a Humbug, which we originally covered back in January after its debut on Hallmark+. Now that it's finally aired on the Hallmark Channel, we're re-releasing our full review for everyone to enjoy! Season 2 kicks off next week! ABOUT MISTLETOE MURDERS: DEATH OF A HUMBUGA murder leads Emily and Sam to a scavenger hunt orchestrated by the victim.AIR DATE & NETWORK FOR MISTLETOE MURDERS: DEATH OF A HUMBUGNovember 28 & December 5 2024 on Hallmark+, October 31 2025 on Hallmark ChannelCAST & CREW OF MISTLETOE MURDERS: DEATH OF A HUMBUGSarah Drew as Emily LanePeter Mooney as Sam WilnerBRAN'S MISTLETOE MURDERS: DEATH OF A HUMBUG SYNOPSISThe Fletchers Grove real estate party is FINALLY HERE!!! A guy dressed as Santa comes in and kills the vibe. It's Glen. He owns the bookstore, and he's very passive-aggressive about how no one in this town comes to his bookstore. Glen has a past. He's banned from the diner, and everyone seems to hate him. He gives presents to everyone and tells Emily that he picked this one specially for her—it's rare he finds a fellow mystery lover.The night continues, and Emily sees Glen in his Santa suit scurrying quickly outside. She goes to follow him, finds his hat on the floor, and then sees a car speed off. Just as that happens, she hears a scream. She runs inside and sees Sue, who was throwing the party. She's crying as she looks at Glen, who has been stabbed in the heart.When Emily gets home, she opens the gift. It's a special green edition of A Christmas Carol. We get a flashback of Emily visiting the bookstore and meeting Glen. She tells him about this edition of A Christmas Carol that her parents used to read to her. He remembered and tracked the book down. As she opens it, a letter falls out, inviting her to a very special event at the law offices tomorrow at 8 p.m. What is Glen up to?!So, she goes to tell Sam, and he says, “How would you feel about me being a plus-one so I can take a gander?”They show up, and the video plays—it's Glen, predicting his own death and setting up a treasure hunt. Sam tries to get everyone to give him their books so he can search for clues. They're like, “Nah. There's treasure to find!”It doesn't take Emily long to find the first clue using a UV light on her book. She thinks the other books have clues too and that they all need to work together on it. She gets two others on board—a hot dog stand owner named Harry and Brooke Carmichael. But Glen's nephew, Fred, says he and his wife don't want to participate (mainly Fred's wife—she didn't like Glen).To make matters worse, there's one book still missing. She thinks maybe he gave it to the diner owner, Sue, but Sue says she threw the book out.Sam finds out that Glen had Huntington's disease. After Fred finds this out, he decides that they want to participate. Even though they're missing one book, they decide to put all the clues together and try to figure out what they're pointing to. It has something to do with a precious memory. Fred says, “The only memory I can think of with Glen is him reading Twas the Night Before Christmas.” Emily says, “Go see if he has that book in the bookstore. Maybe there's a clue.”As they're walking towards the store, Emily sees the car that sped off and notices a letter that clearly came from Glen in the front seat. Just then, Fred realizes the bookstore is unlocked. Sam goes in first and finds a guy there.It's Fred's brother Noah. They haven't seen each other in a long time. Apparently, when their mom got sick, Noah left. Sam takes Noah in for questioning and presents him with some pretty tough evidence—they found Glen's Santa suit in the trunk and the USB drive with Glen's video on it from the lawyer's office, which was stolen. He gives reasons for all of it, but it's not looking great.Fred tells Emily that he did finally go find the book and found a USB drive! They agree to all get together tomorrow to watch what's on it.As Emily's going home, an SUV speeds at her, and she has to tuck-and-roll out of the way.The next day, they all get together, and it's another video with a very cryptic clue. We find out that someone is sitting in a car, listening in on their conversation.Later, the group gets back together, but Fred is nowhere to be found. Turns out he was attacked from behind. He says he doesn't know who did it. Sam gets a call—they found Fred's wife's DNA on the Santa suit. She says she found out that the first editions were missing and went to talk to Glen. She found him dead and knew it wouldn't look good that she found him, so she put the suit on and ran out.Emily finds Noah in the diner—he's been released. She convinces him to join the group in solving the mystery. He comes to her store and sees there's a hole in the wall—she has a leak. He says he thought maybe it was one of the secret compartments these old buildings have. That gives them the idea to look for one in the bookstore, and they find it! Inside is a suitcase—a go-bag, if you will. They discover a folder with a plane ticket to Switzerland for the day of the party and a brochure for a place in Switzerland for end-of-life care. He was planning to leave and die in Switzerland. Emily recalls that the tape says, “If you're seeing this, that means I'm gone.” He didn't know he was going to be murdered. He was just planning on disappearing.They find the final clue and watch the video. Suddenly, Harry, the hot dog guy, is gone, and so are all the books. Emily puts it together—he killed Glen and was just trying to solve the mystery. She goes to confront him in the cemetery where the final clue leads to. We find out that he showed up to steal the first edition A Christmas Carol and threatened to kill Glen to get it. Glen laughed in his face, knowing he was dying. That offended Harry, so he stabbed him.Emily then fights him, takes him down, and puts him in plastic cuffs to get the treasure! She figures out it was the lawyer who hired this guy, and he gets arrested.She gets the group back together and hands out what Glen left for everyone. It's very sweet.The movie ends with Emily coming down to her store and seeing Sam fixing her wall. They end up making out HARD!!! She says, “Let's go for a walk in the snow.” She has to go change, and that's when he gets a phone call—he's been investigating Emily and noticed some discrepancies in her story. He got a call from his higher-up to drop any and all research into her. So, clearly, she isn't who she says she is. The episode ends with him asking her, “Who are you really?” Fade to black.

For the first time in human history, we can diagnose thousands of genetic diseases—often for under $1,000—but we still can't treat most of them. The problem isn't understanding what's broken; it's delivering the fix to the right cells.Eric Kelsic, CEO of Dyno Therapeutics, joins a16z's Jorge Conde to explain how AI-designed protein shells are solving gene therapy's delivery crisis. They explore why Huntington's patients can now get 15 extra years of healthy life, how Dyno inverted the liver-to-brain delivery ratio by 1000x, and why capsids evolved by nature are now being designed by machine learning models trained on millions of variants.Eric introduces the concept of genetic agency—humanity's first-ever ability to take action at the DNA level—and details why solving delivery for common diseases will make ultra-rare disease treatments economically viable. Plus: what happens when gene therapy requires neurosurgery today but could be a simple injection tomorrow, why recent deaths in clinical trials prove we need better technology now, and how genetic medicine could become as routine as surgery within our lifetimes.

In somewhat of an unconventional "studio" setting - namely a gutted former restaurant under renovation and equipped with only a table, a few folding chairs, a cooler of beer and an extension cord - 6 fellow music lovers travelled from across the Eastern Seaboard to Downtown Huntington to discuss and debate a subject that has been the hot topic among the group for over 6 years. "What are the Top-5 greatest American rock-&-roll bands of all time." Key word - American.No Stones. No Beatles. No U2. No Led Zeppelin (#sorrymeyers). The criteria as to what makes a band authentically American was that every band member, without exception, must have been born in the United States. No Metallica (#sorryhanna).After the rules of engagement were spelled out, the conversation that ensued over the next 50+ minutes was as spirited and riveting as any I've hosted in any prior episode. Enjoy the energy that flowed amongst my co-host, Rob "Monkey Man" Diestel, and his "Boys from Bergen" - Nick Halaby, Lewis Meyers, and Matt Hanna.

Many of the top stories of 2025 are currently being written. We're on the edge of our keyboards, watching and waiting as Pfizer and Novo Nordisk duke it out over the right to acquire glittery obesity startup Metsera. In the latest development, Pfizer raised its original bid of around $7.27 billion to about $8.1 billion on Monday—only to be usurped again by the indefatigable Novo, which upped its own bid to a cool $10 billion. Meanwhile, the unprecedented drama in the uppermost ranks of the FDA—another top story of 2025—continues as CDER Director George Tidmarsh exits the agency. Tidmarsh reportedly resigned Sunday after being placed on administrative leave amid an investigation into his “personal conduct” at the agency. On Monday, however, Tidmarsh told Endpoints News that he was “second-guessing” his decision. Speaking of the FDA, the regulator appears to have done its own 180—on uniQure's investigational gene therapy for Huntington's disease, three-year data from which sent the biotech's stock into the stratosphere just five weeks ago. Despite previous agreements on protocols and statistical analyses, the agency “no longer agrees” that Phase I/II data for AMT-130 are adequate to provide primary evidence for the application, uniQure said, throwing the timeline for the BLA into question. Another gene therapy player, Sarepta Therapeutics, took a hit this week, as two of its Duchenne muscular dystrophy drugs, Vyondys 53 and Amondys 45, failed a confirmatory trial. Sarepta still plans to file for full approval of the two exon-skipping therapies, however, based on what it called “encouraging trends” in efficacy. Finally, on the genetic medicine front, CBER director Vinay Prasad teased an upcoming paper that will detail the regulator's thinking and a new approach to gene editing approvals. On top of all that, Q3 earnings continue to roll in, with Pfizer, Eli Lilly, Vertex, Bristol Myers Squibb, AbbVie, and more reporting results. One more thing: Have you ever wanted to know more about the inner workings of the Biogen-Eisai Alzheimer's partnership? Check out this profile on BioSpace 40 under 40 honoree Neena Bitritto-Garg, Eisai alum and current CEO of Ensho Therapeutics.

Good morning from Pharma Daily: the podcast that brings you the most important developments in the pharmaceutical and biotech world. Today, we're diving into a series of transformative events reshaping the landscape of healthcare, from strategic mergers and regulatory shifts to groundbreaking advancements in drug development.Let's begin with a monumental merger that signals a shift towards more integrated healthcare solutions. The $48.7 billion acquisition of Kenvue, a consumer health spinout from Johnson & Johnson, by Kimberly-Clark illustrates the growing convergence between consumer health products and traditional pharmaceuticals. This strategic move highlights a trend towards expanding product portfolios and enhancing distribution networks, aiming to better address comprehensive patient needs. Mergers like these could redefine how healthcare products are marketed and delivered, emphasizing holistic approaches to patient care.Turning to regulatory news, the resignation of Dr. George Tidmarsh from the FDA due to controversial communications has spotlighted the ongoing challenges within regulatory oversight. This incident underscores the delicate balance regulators must maintain in ensuring transparency while safeguarding sensitive information. Such developments are crucial as they directly affect public trust in drug approval processes and the industry's ability to navigate complex regulatory landscapes.In scientific advancements, Roche is making significant progress with its drug Gazyva for autoimmune diseases. Following FDA approval for lupus-related kidney disease, promising Phase 3 trial results for systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) are propelling Roche closer to offering new hope for patients with this chronic condition, which currently has limited effective treatments. This success underscores the potential of targeted therapies in transforming treatment paradigms for autoimmune diseases.Eli Lilly's $3 billion investment in a new manufacturing facility in the Netherlands marks a strategic effort to bolster oral medicine production globally. This expansion not only reinforces Lilly's commitment to meeting global demand but also reflects an industry-wide trend towards investing in scalable manufacturing capabilities. Such moves are critical for ensuring supply chain resilience and addressing rising healthcare needs worldwide.In legal news, Pfizer's fierce competition with Metsera over Novo Nordisk's counteroffer highlights the high stakes involved in securing promising assets within the biotech sector—a sector particularly focused on obesity treatment due to its substantial market growth potential. The outcome of this legal battle could influence future strategic partnerships and acquisitions, demonstrating the intense competition among pharmaceutical giants.Meanwhile, UniQure faces challenges as its gene therapy for Huntington's disease encounters regulatory hurdles with the FDA. Despite initial expectations as a groundbreaking treatment, this setback emphasizes the rigorous scrutiny gene therapies undergo to ensure safety and efficacy. Such hurdles highlight the complexities of advancing novel therapies through regulatory pathways.Policy developments are also reshaping drug pricing structures as evidenced by HRSA's approval of eight drugmakers' plans for a 340B rebate model pilot program. This initiative aims at optimizing pricing structures while balancing cost containment with access to essential medications for underserved populations—a critical concern in today's healthcare landscape.International collaborations continue to play a pivotal role in accelerating drug discovery and development. Neurocrine Biosciences' $880 million deal with China's TransThera Sciences exemplifies such partnerships, focusing on emerging therapeutic areas like immunology. These collaborations are vital in leveraging global expertise and resources to drive innovatSupport the show

British police say there is nothing to suggest a mass stabbing incident on a train on Saturday was a terrorist incident. Doctors continue to treat seven passengers, two of whom have life-threatening injuries. Armed police arrested two suspects at Huntingdon station in Cambridgeshire, where the train made an emergency stop after terrified passengers alerted the crew. Also in the programme: we'll speak to Nigeria's presidential adviser after US president Donald Trump threatened to take military action to protect the country's Christian population; and the wartime message in a bottle found ashore after one hundred years.(Picture: Forensic teams work at the scene at Huntington railway station in Britain after a number of passengers were stabbed on a train.

Broadcast from KSQD, Santa Cruz on 10-30-2025: Dr. Dawn opens with Halloween-themed scary medical stories, beginning with food toxins lurking in refrigerators and pantries. She explains how molds on grains and nuts, particularly Aspergillus species, produce aflatoxins that bind to DNA and cause liver cancer, making peanuts especially risky. Fusarium on wheat produces trichothecenes and fumonisins damaging cell membranes. Penicillium molds on fruits like apples produce patulin creating reactive oxygen species that harm organs. She advises discarding soft moldy foods entirely since fungal hyphae penetrate deeply, while hard cheeses can have moldy portions cut away. Meat spoilage involves bacteria producing cadaverine and putrescine, with E. coli, Campylobacter, Salmonella, and Clostridium causing severe illness through heat-stable toxins. A caller asks about yogurt-covered peanuts tasting rancid and confirms Botox contains botulinum toxin A in different salt forms, used medically for migraines, hyperhidrosis, and strabismus. The caller also describes paper-thin skin on sun-exposed forearms that bleeds easily. Dr. Dawn explains UV radiation damages collagen and elastin, making blood vessels vulnerable to shear forces. She recommends topical vitamin K products like Dermal K and protective lycra sleeves or gardening gauntlets to prevent injuries, emphasizing the need for annual dermatologic exams after extensive sun exposure. An emailer asks about RSV vaccine recommendations before overseas travel. Dr. Dawn disagreed with the couple's physician, citing US Preventive Services Task Force guidelines recommending RSV vaccination for all adults 60 and older, plus those 50+ with chronic conditions. She discusses FDA-approved home testing options including the PIXEL by LabCorp test for COVID, flu, and RSV, and iHealth rapid tests. She notes RSV point-of-care tests are available to medical practitioners and recommends thorough vaccination before international trips. Dr. Dawn presents a frightening investigation into private equity hospital bankruptcies, focusing on Steward Healthcare's 31 hospitals and Prospect's 16 facilities. Private equity firm Cerberus earned $700 million while Steward 650 documented incidents of deficient care including deaths. One woman died from hemorrhage after vendors repossessed equipment due to unpaid bills. She explains the shell game where companies sell hospital land to Medical Properties Trust, forcing new operators to pay rent while private equity extracts profits. The Brookings Institution study reveals systematic prioritization of investor returns over patient care, with courts failing to prevent these practices despite some states passing protective legislation. She discusses stillbirth rates being significantly underreported, with Harvard research showing actual rates of 1 in 147 pregnancies versus CDC's 1 in 175, worsening to 1 in 95 for black families. Over 70% involved known risks like obesity or diabetes, but 30% had no identifiable factors. Dr. Dawn emphasizes unconscious bias in medicine where women's complaints are dismissed, particularly affecting women of color and non-English speakers, noting both patient and provider biases require training to address. Dr. Dawn warns about HPV-related oral squamous cell carcinoma in young men, explaining that changing sexual practices over 30 years have created new transmission routes from genitals to mouth. Major risk factors include smokeless tobacco and hard alcohol which damage DNA. She mentions newly available saliva tests for persistent HPV detection, recommending risk factor reduction for positive cases. She concludes optimistically with a breakthrough Huntington's disease treatment using microRNA molecule AMT-130 delivered via virus to brain striatum. The treatment mirrors toxic Huntington protein's RNA, creating double-stranded structures cells destroy, preventing toxic protein accumulation. The three-year trial of 29 patients showed 75% slowing of disease progression with few side effects, offering hope for 100,000 Americans carrying the mutation, including 40,000 with current symptoms.

Send us a textCaregiving rarely unfolds the way we imagine. Catherine joins us to trace a decades-long journey that started in childhood waiting rooms and led to the moment her father was diagnosed with Huntington's at 80, long after her mother's dementia and medical challenges had reshaped daily life. What follows is a candid, hope-filled guide to planning one step ahead, inviting family into specific roles, and choosing dignity over control when everything changes faster than your systems can keep up.We dig into the hard transitions—selling homes, moving parents in, and turning a new house into a familiar haven with small details that calm the nervous system. Catherine shares how “hire for fit, not ability” became a lifeline: the right caregiver isn't just technically skilled, they connect, ask better questions, bring humor, and meet emotional needs that checklists miss. From entering the world of dementia instead of correcting it, to medication strategies like adding one drug at a time and tracking side effects, you'll hear practical tactics you can apply today. We also talk about finances with compassion: transition access early, preserve reassuring rituals, and keep dignity at the core.Family dynamics get real here. Catherine explains how she “threw away the scale” of who did most, invited relatives into clear roles they could sustain, and let go of bitterness when help didn't show. Woven through is a steady rhythm of faith—listening, being known, and following the next right step—that turns midnight crises into moments of presence and care. If you're navigating aging parents, juggling distance, or staring down another unexpected change, this conversation offers grounded wisdom, gentle humor, and tools you can trust.If this resonates, follow the show, share it with someone who needs encouragement, and leave a review to help other caregivers find these stories and strategies.
Huntington's disease is a rare, inherited neurodegenerative disorder caused by a type of genetic mutation known as a trinucleotide repeat expansion, which leads to the production of a toxic protein that causes progressive brain cell loss. Vico Therapeutics is developing an experimental antisense oligonucleotide to treat the condition. Because the therapy targets the repeat expansion itself, rather than a specific gene, it may have applications across a broader set of so-called polyglutamine diseases of which Huntington's is one. We spoke to Prarthana Khanna, vice president of corporate business development and strategy for Vico, about Huntington's disease, the company's experimental ASO to target the disease, and why it has the potential to address multiple neurological diseases.
