SHOW NOTES: Welcome to The Money Pit! This week, we're delving into more crucial home maintenance topics for the season and helping you fix up your home sweet home as we prepare for the end-of-year happy holidays! - Indoor Air Quality: We share easy and affordable ways to significantly improve your indoor air quality, even when windows stay shut during the winter. A key step is checking your HVAC filter, which captures dust and allergens without overworking your system. - Warming Up Chilly Spaces: We tackle how to warm up those stubborn, chilly spots in your home without replacing your heating system. Simple weekend projects like applying removable rope caulk or window insulation films to seal drafts and installing foam gaskets behind electrical outlets and switch plates on exterior walls can make a big difference. - Kitchen Organization: With the holidays approaching fast, the kitchen is about to become your busiest room, so we offer quick kitchen organizing tricks to make cooking and cleanup easier - Hazardous Holiday Plants: We conclude with Leslie's Last Word on holiday plant safety, noting that many popular festive plants are far more toxic than commonly thought. Plants like holly, mistletoe, amaryllis, and paper whites can be dangerous if ingested by children or pets, making it crucial to keep them out of reach.   Q & A: - Scott in Illinois called with a question about his crumbling 13-year-old aggregate driveway. We advise that driveway replacement, possibly with a tough concrete surface that has adequate traction for the pitch and the snowy Illinois climate, would be a better option than repeatedly trying to repair the rough aggregate, which has likely reached the end of its lifespan. - Annette in Mississippi asked what causes condensation to appear on the surface of her ceramic kitchen floor tiles. We explain that this is caused by the warm, humid air inside her home striking the cold floor surface, and suggest she install a whole-home dehumidifier to remove the moisture. - Mary from Alaska wanted advice on switching from her traditional electric water heaters to a tankless system. Leslie notes that electric tankless technology is less efficient than gas-based systems, but Mary could upgrade to a high-efficiency heat pump water heater. - Pete in Pennsylvania had a question about an area of vinyl siding that felt floppy after he repaired a piece that had blown off. We reassure him that vinyl siding is meant to be put on loosely to allow for expansion and contraction during temperature changes, but if the pieces are disconnected, he can use a "zip tool" to reconnect the siding.   ASK A QUESTION: Need help with your own home improvement or décor question?

Asia-Pacific markets kick off the week on a strong footing - and beneath the surface, capital is quietly rotating, power is concentrating, and old franchises are finding new life. In today’s Market View, we unpack Keppel REIT’s move beyond offices into retail, and whether investors are warming to that diversification even as Singapore offices remain core. We look stateside as Wall Street ends the week mixed, with Bank of America flagging Estée Lauder, UBS, and Bruker as 2026 plays - from consumer brands to precision instruments. It’s UP or DOWN time with Oracle stepping deeper into TikTok’s US future, ByteDance eyeing a staggering US$50 billion profit year, and Elon Musk securing a record-breaking Tesla pay package - which gets a DOWN for governance optics. We also touch on Sony’s US$450 million bet on the Peanuts franchise, why Snoopy still matters at 75, and what ValueMax’s legal tussle means for investor sentiment. All that plus a holiday-shortened week ahead, the Straits Times Index check-in, and a cinematic Last Word from Pandora as Avatar: Fire and Ash hits the global box office - hosted by Michelle Martin with Ryan Huang.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

What started as a perfectly innocent trip down mid-2000s Nickelodeon memory lane somehow turned into a reminder of why my producers no longer trust me with Google. We revisit Danny Phantom, arguably one of the greatest eras of kids' TV, and give Ember McLain the respect she deserves as an iconic, name-chanting, power-ballad-fueling villain who absolutely did not need to be searched with SafeSearch turned off. Also in this episode: confused producers, immediate browser-history deletion, and a brief lesson in what not to type into a work computer. And because it's the end of a very long year, we close things out with The Last Word—finding gratitude, perspective, and maybe even a little peace after everything this year threw at us… including our own poor decision-making.In the headlines on #TheUpdate this Friday, one of Mayor-elect Zohran Mamdani 's appointees has resigned over social media posts she made more than a decade ago that featured antisemitic tropes, Mamdani's office said.New York City prosecutors asked the U.S. Supreme Court to reinstate a murder conviction in the 1979 disappearance of 6-year-old Etan Patz.And in New Hampshire, A frantic search for the suspect in last weekend's mass shooting at Brown University ended at a storage facility where authorities discovered the man dead inside and then revealed he also was suspected of killing a Massachusetts Institute of Technology professor.

In this sermon, we continue our series on the women in Jesus' genealogy by looking at "the wife of Uriah." We dive into the depth of David's sin, the bold confrontation by the prophet Nathan, and the beautiful way God restores Bathsheba's life through the birth of Solomon. If you've ever felt like your story is too messy for God to use, this message is a reminder that the Prince of Peace was born into a family line that knows exactly what you're going through.

On Friday's Daily Puck Drop, Jason “Puck” Puckett , Jim Moore and Chris Egan start off the Friday PME Show recap the crazy Seahawks victory over the LA Rams on Thursday night.  The boys tried to put the win in perspective and where it ranks among the great Seahawks wins in franchise history.   Obviously the biggest takeaway from the game was the performance of Sam Darnold and hopefully his play will give him confidence moving forward.  They also discuss whether or not the best team won, but at the end of the day that doesn't really matter. TroyWins.comstops by to give his best gambling picks for the weekend and he really, really loves Alabama.  “Last Word” with Bob Condotta, Seattle Times, joins Puck to put into perspective the crazy game and what led to the win.  Bob points out that the Shaheed punt return sparked the comeback and they discuss how Sam Darnold was able to turn his game around late and how good he was in overtime. “On This Day…”  A Christmas Carol, Wayne Gretzky and Al Kaline Puck wraps up the show with “Hey, What the Puck!?”   Another chapter written in the Sam Darnold comeback(1:00) The PME Show ( Puck, Egan and Moore) (46:43) PuckSports Handicapper TroyWins.com (58:00) Bob Condotta, Seattle Times (1:15:09) “On This Day….” (1:16:54) “Hey, What the Puck!?”

Cast your vote for Purpose 360 as Best Business Podcast here!Leadership coaching has the power to unlock profound personal and organizational transformation. That belief lies at the heart of 100 Coaches. Founded by executive coach Marshall Goldsmith, 100 Coaches began with a bold experiment: Marshall offered to teach 15 people everything he knew for free, in gratitude for the teachers and leaders who helped shape him. As those first 15 committed to “pay it forward,” the idea resonated deeply. More than 16,000 applicants were interested, and so the initiative grew into a community of more than 100 coaches from top leadership, academia, non-profits, healthcare, and beyond.We invited Scott Osman, CEO of 100 Coaches, to reflect on how that founding vision has flourished. Scott shares how 100 Coaches functions as a curated network that matches each leader with the right coach at the right moment, grounded in deep expertise across organizational psychology, leadership development, and human behavior. He underscores how coaching can shift organizational trajectories: when leaders evolve, their teams, culture, and long-term outcomes evolve with them. For those wondering if coaching is a luxury or necessity, this conversation makes a compelling case for the power of investing in people.Listen for insights on:What leadership coaching looks like from the startWhat leaders today struggle with the mostTop leadership myths we need to move away from Resources + Links:Watch this full conversation on YouTubeScott Osman's LinkedIn100 CoachesBecoming Coachable (00:00) - Welcome to Purpose 360 (01:19) - Meet Scott Osman, 100 Coaches (03:05) - Early Influencers (04:12) - Leadership Coaching (05:28) - Services (06:51) - Match Craft (09:31) - What He's Learned From Both Sides of the Equation (11:13) - Generosity (12:26) - Defining Leadership (13:19) - Flavors of Success (15:50) - Role of Humility (17:59) - Role of Corporate Purpose Today (19:09) - Creating the Richest Cultures (20:15) - Leadership Myth (21:35) - Next Frontier for Leadership Growth (23:10) - The Last Word (23:44) - Wrap Up

SHOW NOTES: Welcome to the Money Pit! With only two weeks left until Christmas, we know this is a busy time of year, but we're here to help you keep your home in tip-top shape and get you through the finish line of the holidays. Whether you are doing or dreaming of projects, we make DIY doable! - 5 Common Remodeling Mistakes: We share the top five most common remodeling mistakes homeowners make, so you can be prepared for your next project. - Safe and Efficient Space Heaters: We discuss how to choose a safe and efficient space heater by understanding the difference between radiant heaters and convection heaters. - Live Christmas Trees: If you're heading out to buy a live Christmas tree, we provide tips on how to ensure the tree is fresh. - The Age of Your Home: Leslie's Last Word offers tricks for figuring out the age of your home by checking plumbing fixtures or recognizing old wiring and pipe types.   Q & A: - Linda from Washington wanted to cover her outdated Formica kitchen countertops with a new product. We recommend using a product kit like Lux Rock or Marble Dream from Daich Coatings, noting that she should lightly sand the Formica surface beforehand to ensure the coating adheres well. - Jeremy from Pennsylvania was dealing with a small leak and musty smell in the corner of his finished basement with a block foundation. We suggest that the problem is caused by exterior drainage, advising him to extend his downspout and fix any grading issues to relieve water pressure. - Taylor in Michigan reported that her doors were sticking, specifically toward the top, due to swelling. We advise checking the hinges for loose screws and using chalk or dark lipstick on the door edges to identify the exact sticking point before attempting minor adjustments to realign the door in the jam. - Robin was dealing with mold growth coming out of the jets of her jacuzzi tub. We suggest filling the tub with hot water and either bleach (if not on septic) or an environmentally safe dish soap like Simple Green to sanitize the pipes. - Carolyn in Pennsylvania had a lingering musty odor in her kitchen's lazy Susan cabinet after mold grew inside. We recommend looking for mold spread behind the kickboard or trim, thoroughly cleaning all affected areas with bleach and water, and painting the interior if the odor persists.   ASK A QUESTION: Need help with your own home improvement or décor question?

Lots to unpack on our newest show from the Lane Kiffin "telethon-like" coverage of whether he would stay or go from Ole Miss, huge football games on Thanksgiving in the NFL and for Ohio St. and Michigan for Fox Sports. Plus, we have a WILD, four day travel weekend for a broadcast host/producer to go over, too!It's all with T.J. Rives and guests on the "LWOS Media Podcast!"First, T.J. talks the Thanksgiving games and numbers and the speculation that continues about the size of the TV audiences for those. And, then the massive Buckeyes vs. Wolverines grudge match in Ann Arbor, MI for Fox Sports. Also, he has comments on the Erin Andrews comments/controversy about travel and missing out on things with your family and kids, etc.Then, there's plenty of talk on Lane Kiffin leaving Ole Miss (in the lurch) to take the LSU job with a great writer/columnist for the Sporting News in Mike Decourcy. The guys discuss how Kiffin didn't handle things well and also, the seemingly compromised ESPN broadcasters covering the story, as their employer ESPN paying the SEC billions of dollars. And, the announcers having the same agency represent them, as the SEC powerful coaches. DeCourcy does not hold back on all.Then, it's an all time travel weekend for massive NFL and College Footall for Brian Dancel of Elite Media Network and Compass Media Network and the coverage on the radio for four games in four days. It's amazing what he did on multiple planes, cars and hotels to make it happen.Hear it all on the "Last Word on Sports Media Podcast" and make sure to follow/subscribe on Apple/Spreaker/Spotify, etc.!
