When Bonanza ended after 14 seasons, NBC television turned to its biggest star, Michael Landon, to create a new series. Landon adapted Laura Ingalls Wilder's beloved “Little House” books into “Little House on the Prairie,” a family drama about perseverance, faith, and community on the American frontier.Premiering in the aftermath of Watergate, the series became a cultural phenomenon, offering an optimistic vision of neighbors coming together to overcome hardship. More than 50 years later, Little House remains one of television's most beloved franchises.Netflix is now rebooting the series with promises of a more historically accurate adaptation. The project has already sparked heated debate, with some conservatives dismissing it as "woke."Today we're joined by writer Lee Ingalls, a cousin of Laura Ingalls Wilder and a leading voice in preserving the Ingalls family legacy. Along with his husband Brett Cullum, he helps organize the Society for the Ingalls Family, a fan group for Little House events and fan gatherings.Lee has written a deeply personal memoir, The Prairie Has a Rainbow, about growing up as a gay boy in the rural Midwest during the 1950s and 60s.Plus--• Did Heated Rivalry inspire the Netflix producers to create a bromance between Pa Ingalls and Mr Edwards?

You may be familiar with the world of Little House on the Prairie, either through Laura Ingalls Wilder's beloved books, or the 1970s TV adaptation. Now, Netflix is once again bringing the Ingalls family to life with a new series. It focuses on earlier in Laura's life in Kansas, where the promise of available land for the family comes at the expense of a local Osage population that's being pushed out. During this time, the Ingalls family must make friends in their local community and deal with the harsh realities of pioneer life.Here are some recommendations both kids and adults will enjoy:‘Zootopia 2' brings back your favorite fun animals — and some pointed commentary In 'Toy Story 5,' playtime's over and screentime's inConnect with Pop Culture Happy Hour:Letterboxd / FacebookOur weekly newsletterSupport Pop Culture Happy Hour+See pcm.adswizz.com for information about our collection and use of personal data for sponsorship and to manage your podcast sponsorship preferences.NPR Privacy Policy

This exploration of the Nicene Creed invites us to see ancient statements of faith not as dusty relics, but as essential ropes that keep us anchored in truth during life's blizzards. Just as the Ingalls family needed a rope between house and barn to avoid getting lost in the storm, we need the creeds to guide us through the confusing voices and conflicting messages about Christianity today. The opening declaration of the Nicene Creedthat we believe in one God, the Father Almighty, maker of heaven and earth, of all that is seen and unseenconnects us to a story that began long before us and extends far beyond our individual experience. Drawing from Isaiah's proclamation that God is the creator who formed the earth to be inhabited, not empty, we discover that our existence has divine purpose. The creed teaches us that belief is not merely intellectual assent but something that shapes how we act and live. When we confess faith in one God who is Father, Son, and Holy Spirit, we join our voices with Christians across centuries and continents, declaring a radically different story than the world tellsa story where creation is gift, where God desires relationship rather than servitude, and where everything we have comes from the only giver of all good gifts.

The author of this book on the topic adds the adjective “individualist” to distinguish them from socialists. They were champions of liberty, and, yes, they were as quirky as any movement of this sort might be. But they made mighty contributions to the history of ideas, and this book explains those contributions and the minds behind them.The names are tragically lost to history: Benjamin Tucker, Josiah Warren, Lysander Spooner, J.K. Ingalls, among many others. They were thinkers and activists, not mere protesters or political dissidents. They had a positive agenda centered on the confidence that whatever kind of world would emerge without a state, it would be a better world than the one the state made.The author explains that “the communist anarchists rejected private property, and taught the ideal of the collective autonomous commune. A portion of their number advocated the overthrow of the State by violence. The individualist anarchists held that the collective society in any form was an impossibility without the eventuality of authoritarianism, and ultimately, totalitarianism, and adhered resolutely to the concept of private property insofar as the term could be defined as the total product of a given individual's labor, but not more broadly than this.”“They abandoned the idea of an equalitarian utopia, and worked for a world free from arbitrary restrictions on opportunity and legal privilege, which breakdowns they claimed ‘laissez faire' really produced. No other radical group denounced the prevailing system more vigorously than the spokesmen for individualist anarchism.”James J. Martin wrote a book for the ages in 1952, a survey that is indispensable for anyone interested in the roots of modern libertarian thought. You will find these roots not in the postwar “conservatism” of the Buckley movement but much further back.(Description taken from mises.org)

I hope you enjoy it! “Blaming herself when Laura’s doll breaks during a game of catch, Mary is delighted to give her sad, little sister an abandoned, baby raccoon. After Pa reluctantly agrees to let her keep him, Laura names him “Jasper”, teaches him tricks and tries to keep the mischief-maker out of trouble. But one day, Jasper bites Jack, the Ingalls’ dog, and disappears into the woods. When Charles later shoots a snarling, rabid raccoon who is killing the chickens and begins to watch Jack for signs of rabies, a tearful Mary reveals a terrible secret… Jasper had also bitten Laura who made Mary promise not to tell.” The Racoon originally aired on November 20, 1974 The opening song “Albert” is written and performed by the amazing Norwegian band, Project Brundlefly and is used with permission.

Okay, Bonnetheads, buckle up— Part 2, of "The Lord is My Shepherd" zeroes in on Laura Ingalls, who is drowning in guilt after the death of her baby brother. Convinced she's somehow responsible, Laura does what any emotionally overwhelmed Prairie kid might do: she runs away into the mountains to have a serious talk with God. (Thanks, Rev. Alden!)Out there, she meets Jonathan, a mysterious mountain man with strong “possibly an angel, or possibly just a hermit who is just wiser than everyone else” energy, played by the one and only, Ernest Borgnine. Jonathan listens, gently challenges Laura's guilt, and offers calm guidance instead of miracles. He also gives her a hand-carved wooden cross—simple, meaningful, and far more helpful than yelling at the sky.Meanwhile, the Ingalls family launches a full-scale prairie panic, as Edwards and Pa begin searching desperately for Laura. Pa is giving emotional breakdown while being the most gorgeous man that has ever lived (both emotionally and physically!). Spoiler: the cross Jonathan makes Laura comes in clutch and leads them straight to her. Is this a master grand plan after all from an Angel sent by God? Or just a dude on a mountain who got lucky?By the end, the viewer has had at least 5 major emotional breaks as this incredible episode comes to a conclusion. But do we ever truly know who or what Jonathan was?

Welcome to season 3 the Little House on the Prairie 50th Anniversary Podcast! We cannot believe we're starting our third year with you all (remember when we thought it was only going to be 50 episodes?). And we're starting this season off with a BANGER. We revisit one of the most moving and unforgettable episodes of the series: “The Lord Is My Shepherd” (Part 1). The episode explores loss, faith, fear, and resilience as the Ingalls face one of their darkest chapters. Together, the trio reflects on the emotional weight of the story, the performances that have stayed with fans for decades, and why this episode continues to resonate so deeply 50 years later. Of course, we add a whole lot of laughs to the conversation, including an off-topic discussion about Miss America, which (somehow) circles back to an unexpected Prairie connection, proving once again that Little House has a way of touching just about everything. Then join us on Patreon, where Alison, Dean and Pamela dish about being super sick post Little House events, their holiday presents and astrological predictions for 2026 (even Dean was into it!)Links and Resources:Haven't signed up for Patreon yet?

Fresh off a truly magical Little House weekend in Simi Valley, the microphones are back on—and so are Alison Arngrim, Dean Butler, and Pamela, though perhaps running on fumes. Loopy, overtired, and still glowing from a wonderful fan event, the trio settles in to revisit one of the most emotional and beloved episodes of the entire series, “Christmas at Plum Creek.”This Season One holiday classic captures the heart of Little House on the Prairie in its purest form, and the conversation reflects that same mix of warmth and vulnerability. As they revisit the episode, Alison, Dean, and Pamela reflect on the harsh reality of frontier winters, the quiet sacrifices made by the Ingalls family, and why this story—so simple on the surface—continues to resonate so deeply 50 years later.The meaning of Christmas is found not in what you have, but in who you are.It's a cozy, heartfelt, slightly delirious recap that feels like collapsing onto the couch after a perfect holiday gathering. Pour yourself something warm, settle in, and join us for a loving look back at “Christmas at Plum Creek”—a reminder that even a single penny can feel like a miracle, and that Little House still knows exactly how to touch the heart.Then join us on Patreon where Alison and Pamela take time to reflect on the joy of celebrating the 50th anniversary of Little House on the Prairie with fans whose love for the show has never faded. That shared sense of connection—between cast, stories, and audience—feels especially present in an episode like this, where the meaning of Christmas is found not in what you have, but in who you are.Links and Resources:Haven't signed up for Patreon yet?

In this episode of the Pastor to Pioneer podcast, Tyler Ingalls shares his journey from a supportive Christian upbringing to becoming a youth pastor and basketball coach. He discusses the challenges he faced in youth ministry, the importance of holistic discipleship, and the need for parents to engage spiritually with their children. Tyler emphasizes the disconnect between church leaders and families, advocating for a new approach to ministry that fosters genuine relationships and spiritual growth. He also highlights the spiritual hunger of young people and the limitations of current church structures, offering insights on how to create a more effective and engaging environment for discipleship.

The author of this book on the topic adds the adjective “individualist” to distinguish them from socialists. They were champions of liberty, and, yes, they were as quirky as any movement of this sort might be. But they made mighty contributions to the history of ideas, and this book explains those contributions and the minds behind them.The names are tragically lost to history: Benjamin Tucker, Josiah Warren, Lysander Spooner, J.K.

They had a positive agenda centered on the confidence that whatever kind of world would emerge without a state, it would be a better world than the one the state made.The author explains that “the communist anarchists rejected private property, and taught the ideal of the collective autonomous commune. A portion of their number advocated the overthrow of the State by violence. The individualist anarchists held that the collective society in any form was an impossibility without the eventuality of authoritarianism, and ultimately, totalitarianism, and adhered resolutely to the concept of private property insofar as the term could be defined as the total product of a given individual's labor, but not more broadly than this.”“They abandoned the idea of an equalitarian utopia, and worked for a world free from arbitrary restrictions on opportunity and legal privilege, which breakdowns they claimed ‘laissez faire' really produced. No other radical group denounced the prevailing system more vigorously than the spokesmen for individualist anarchism.”James J. Martin wrote a book for the ages in 1952, a survey that is indispensable for anyone interested in the roots of modern libertarian thought.

In this episode of Off the Mats Podcast, I sit down with Mallory Ingalls, Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu practitioner and co-host of the Chokeholds and Chill podcast. We talk about her background as a lifelong athlete, her history in softball, being a Buffalo Bills fan, and how her competitive mindset shaped the way she approaches training and coaching in BJJ. Mallory shares what first brought her to the mats, how she balances training with work, podcasting, and everyday responsibilities, and the lessons she carries from the gym into her life outside of it. We also get into the origins of Chokeholds and Chill, the intention behind the show, and why representation, honesty, and real conversations matter in the BJJ community. Mallory offers her perspective on belonging, connection, and the changes she's seen in the culture of the sport, along with moments where she felt disconnected and what helped her return with clarity. We move into mindset, identity, and the challenges that come with burnout, self-doubt, and growth, both on the mats and behind the mic. Mallory talks through how training has shaped her confidence, how she handles difficult seasons, and what she would tell new grapplers, especially women, who may feel unsure of where they fit. We also spend time exploring creativity, collaboration, and what podcasting has taught her about herself and the greater BJJ community. The Rapid Fire segment closes things out with a look at her personal preferences and quirks before we wrap up with her reflections on the journey so far and where listeners can find her online.

We are taking a heartwarming ride back to Walnut Grove with three beloved Little House On The Prairie cast members: Alison Arngrim, Dean Butler, and Karen Grassle, as they reunite to celebrate the show's enduring magic and to preview a new documentary and a Simi Valley cast reunion event in December, 2025.We explore why Little House continues to resonate across generations, drawing parallels to Star Trek and its devoted fan culture. Audiences still crave the sense of simplicity, community, and frontier resilience the series embodies.Karen Grassle shares the story of landing her very first series regular role as Caroline Ingalls after eight lean years as a struggling New York actor. The cast reflects on the unexpected typecasting that followed their time on the prairie, and Alison recalls the heady moment when, at age 12, she recognized the deliciously devious nature of her role, Prairie Bitch, Nellie Oleson.We delve into the legacy of Michael Landon, his uncanny eye for casting, his individualized directing style, and why guest stars adored working with him, while Karen offers a candid look at her complicated relationship with Michael and the challenges she faced as a women on that set.Alison and Dean walk us through the phenomenon of the Little House passport book, that allows Laura fans to mark every museum that celebrates the Ingalls family's history in their town. And the cast previews what will make the Simi Valley reunion truly special for enthusiasts, including meet-and-greets, photo-ops, breakfast with the cast, a screening of the 'Little House Homecoming' documentary and a tote bag!We also discuss the real, sometimes harsh conditions the actors faced on set, including rain, snow, fire and Victor French leaping into a freezing creek. And we get into the new Netflix limited series currently in production (though the original cast isn't officially involved, they share their openness to making appearances). And of course we make time for game time. How well does the cast know what takes place in the Books vs. the Series? And we play the IMDB Roulette Sub-Genre, Were You In it? This is a conversation that celebrates the past, embraces the future and shares the community of Little House.In current media --Fritz: The documentary Being Eddie on NetflixWeezy: Netflix movie, Train DreamsPath Points of Interest:LHOP Holiday cast reunion Dec 12 - 14th, 2025Little House Homecoming DocumentaryDean ButlerDean Butler on InstagramDean Butler on FacebookAlison Arngrim Alison Arngrim on InstagramAlison Arngrim on FacebookKaren GrassleKaren Grassle on InstagramLaura Ingalls Wilder Tour PassportConfessions Of A Prairie Bitch by Alison ArngrimPrairie Man by Dean ButlerBright Lights, Prairie Dust by Karen GrassleBeing Eddie Train Dreams
Grab your genealogy charts and your emotional-support bonnets, because this week we're diving into “Family Tree,” the episode where poor little Albert discovers that figuring out where you come from can be… complicated.When Miss Wilder assigns a genealogy project, Albert realizes his family tree looks a lot like the one from A Charlie Brown Christmas. Naturally, the children of Walnut Grove handle this delicate situation with the grace of a herd of stampeding cattle. Nothing says “friendship” quite like being called a “bastard” on a fishing trip, Laura being completely oblivious to Albert's emotional turmoil, and Nellie Oleson taunting him just for some good old-fashioned psychopath fun. (She's giving Matthew McConaughey in Dazed and Confused. In other words: LOSER.)Albert begs Pa to officially adopt him in an absolutely devastating, tear-jerking scene. (Where are the Emmys for Michael Landon and Matthew Labyorteaux?! Truly.) Pa, suddenly realizing that—oops—he probably should have adopted Albert already, decides to make it official. Big mistake! Albert's biological father is, gasp, ALIVE… and wants Albert back. Not out of love, not out of guilt—no, no. To work on his farm. What a heartwarming reunion!But Albert, being the clever, street-savvy kid he is, hatches a plan: he pretends to be blind, which quickly convinces his bio-dad that this whole fatherhood thing is not for him. Reversing course, he leaves Albert in Walnut Grove where he belongs—back with the Ingalls, where he is (finally!) and officially adopted. (Honestly, having a blind sister really does come in handy here.)“Family Tree” stands out as one of the most emotional episodes of Season 6, highlighting Albert's vulnerability, Charles' unwavering compassion, and the show's ongoing theme that families are made, not just born. But don't worry—your hosts keep the snark, nostalgia, and inappropriate giggling flowing throughout.Then, join us on Patreon, where Alison shares stories about her father, Thor Arngrim, and the surprising similarities between his childhood and this episode.

We've all heard this story before—giant fish man escapes secret laboratory, giant fish man takes up with unfulfilled housewife, fish man and housewife have deeply meaningful affair, lots of people die. Tale as old as time! Suffice it to say the characters in Mrs. Caliban have a very different reaction to a giant fish than the characters in Jaws. This episode is sponsored by BetterHelp.
