On Christmas Eve 2003, a quiet residential street in Willenhall looked exactly how it should. Lights in the windows, presents under the tree, and two young sisters excitedly counting down the hours until Father Christmas arrived.By the end of the night, three lives were lost, and a close-knit community was left trying to understand how something so devastating could happen inside what appeared to be a happy family home.As police began piecing together the final hours of Lisa Higgins and her daughters, Keighley and Demmy, a very different picture started to emerge. One that revealed hidden fear, carefully made plans, and a truth that only came to light once it was far too late. This is a story about what we see, what we miss, and how danger can exist behind closed doors, even during the most celebrated time of the year.Just to clarify: throughout this episode I pronounce Keighley as “Keith-ley”, based on how the town in West Yorkshire is said. I grew up nearby, so I defaulted to that pronunciation without a second thought. I've since been made aware that Keighley's name may be pronounced differently, and if that's the case, I'm genuinely sorry.

more:fluentfiction.com/ca/episode/2025-12-18-08-38-20-ca Story Transcript:Ca: Al racó del barri, hi havia un orfenat petit però acollidor.En: In the corner of the neighborhood, there was a small yet welcoming orphanage.Ca: Les parets eren de color ivori i les finestres portaven cortines de quadres blaus i blancs, que movien suaument amb el vent d'hivern.En: The walls were ivory colored, and the windows had blue and white checkered curtains that moved gently with the winter wind.Ca: A dins, els nens estaven plens d'energia i idees, sempre buscant la propera aventura.En: Inside, the children were full of energy and ideas, always seeking the next adventure.Ca: Un matí fred de desembre, l'Adrià es va despertar amb un somni a la seva ment.En: One cold December morning, Adrià woke up with a dream in his mind.Ca: Volia portar la Júlia i el Nil a veure els mercats de Nadal de Barcelona.En: He wanted to take Júlia and Nil to see the Christmas markets of Barcelona.Ca: L'orfenat no tenia gaires recursos, però ell creia que amb esforç i determinació, podien aconseguir-ho.En: The orphanage didn't have many resources, but he believed that with effort and determination, they could make it happen.Ca: "Aquesta vegada serà diferent," va dir a la Júlia mentre ella l'ajudava a posar els abrics als més petits.En: "This time will be different," he said to Júlia as she helped him put coats on the little ones.Ca: "Veurem les llums, escoltarem les nadales, i potser podrem menjar una mica de turró.En: "We will see the lights, listen to the carols, and perhaps we can eat a bit of turró."Ca: "Els ulls de la Júlia brillaven.En: Júlia's eyes sparkled.Ca: "Vull veure l'arbre gran de la plaça," va dir, imaginant-se les llums com estrelles.En: "I want to see the big tree in the square," she said, imagining the lights like stars.Ca: En Nil, mentre jugava a fer equilibris sobre tot el que trobava, va cridar: "Serà una aventura espectacular!En: Nil, while playing balance games on everything he found, shouted, "It will be a spectacular adventure!"Ca: " L'Adrià va mirar el Nil amb una barreja d'afecte i preocupació.En: Adrià looked at Nil with a mix of affection and concern.Ca: Sempre estava preparat per salvar el Nil dels seus embolics.En: He was always ready to save Nil from his scrapes.Ca: L'Adrià va començar a treballar més hores al jardí i la cuina de l'orfenat.En: Adrià began working more hours in the garden and the kitchen of the orphanage.Ca: Plegava roba, fregava pisos i organitzava els joguets trencats, sempre pensant en els nens i en el seu desig de Nadal.En: He folded clothes, scrubbed floors, and organized the broken toys, always thinking about the children and their Christmas wish.Ca: La mestra, la Senyora Montse, li va donar algunes monedes pel seu esforç addicional, cosa que el va fer somriure.En: The teacher, Mrs. Montse, gave him some coins for his additional effort, which made him smile.Ca: Però un dia, quan estaven preparant un petit mercat al pati per recaptar fons, en Nil, emocionat, va escalar l'arbre perquè volia penjar una estrella de paper al lloc més alt.En: But one day, while they were preparing a small market in the yard to raise funds, Nil, excited, climbed the tree because he wanted to hang a paper star at the highest point.Ca: L'arbre, sec i fràgil, va començar a trontollar i, abans que ningú pogués reaccionar, es va sentir un gran cruixit.En: The tree, dry and fragile, began to wobble, and before anyone could react, there was a loud crack.Ca: L'Adrià, que es trobava a prop, va córrer cap a en Nil, just a temps per subjectar-lo abans que caigués.En: Adrià, who was nearby, ran to Nil just in time to catch him before he fell.Ca: El cor se li anava disparat.En: His heart was racing.Ca: Els altres nens van cridar, però la Senyora Montse va mantenir la calma.En: The other children screamed, but Mrs. Montse remained calm.Ca: "Per sort, el Nil i l'Adrià estan bé," va dir, "Ara, hem de continuar amb el nostre pla.En: "Luckily, Nil and Adrià are okay," she said, "Now, we have to continue with our plan."Ca: "Finalment, el treball dur de l'Adrià i la paciència de tots van fer possible el viatge.En: Finally, Adrià's hard work and everyone's patience made the trip possible.Ca: Quan van arribar als mercats de Nadal, els ulls de la Júlia s'allargaven amb meravella.En: When they arrived at the Christmas markets, Júlia's eyes widened with wonder.Ca: Els sons de les nadales omplien l'aire, i el color dels llums semblava atrapar-los en un conte de fades.En: The sounds of carols filled the air, and the color of the lights seemed to capture them in a fairy tale.Ca: En Nil estava més tranquil, agafant la mà de l'Adrià i aprenent a gaudir amb més calma.En: Nil was calmer, holding Adrià's hand and learning to enjoy things more peacefully.Ca: Després d'una llarga jornada plena de màgia i rialles, van tornar a l'orfenat amb el cor ple.En: After a long day full of magic and laughter, they returned to the orphanage with their hearts full.Ca: Aquella nit, mentre el vent fred xiulava fora, van somiar noves aventures.En: That night, while the cold wind howled outside, they dreamed of new adventures.Ca: La Júlia es va sentir més segur de si mateixa i va saber que era important.En: Júlia felt more self-assured and knew that she was important.Ca: En Nil va aprendre que de vegades és millor escoltar abans d'actuar.En: Nil learned that sometimes it is better to listen before acting.Ca: I l'Adrià va comprendre que l'esperança és un poder magnífic que pot fer realitat els somnis.En: And Adrià realized that hope is a magnificent power that can make dreams come true.Ca: La màgia de Nadal havia deixat una empremta en els tres.En: The magic of Christmas had left an imprint on the three of them.Ca: I així, l'orfenat va seguir sent un lloc de somnis compartits i esperances renovades.En: And so, the orphanage continued to be a place of shared dreams and renewed hopes.

No ads.No spam.No algorithms deciding what you see.No influencers pushing the latest gadget you do not need.

And 2026 is shaping up to be a big year. We have a brand new app, more free resources for members, expanded meetups across the country, new tools, new courses, new workshops ( our first one is Jan 1 on how to attend and shop at an RV Show) and new ways to connect that we are really excited about.

Because the RV lifestyle is not just about the rig you drive or the places you go.

RV CONVERSATION OF THE WEEK - The RV Accident That Changed Everything Andy and Joanne Larrimore are longtime RVers who, earlier this year, set out on what was supposed to be their biggest adventure yet. They packed up their Class A, hooked up their toad, and rolled out of southeast Massachusetts bound for Florida. The trip started exactly the way RV dreams are supposed to start, sunshine, family time, and a memorable stop at Disney with loved ones in Orlando. But a couple of weeks in, everything changed. Andy came down with a serious upper respiratory infection. Then word came that Joanne's mom, who was in a nursing home, was not doing well. They made the tough decision to cut the trip short and head back north. Somewhere in South Carolina, the unthinkable happened. Andy blacked out behind the wheel, and their rig crashed. Both Andy and Joanne were med-lifted separately to the hospital. They suffered serious injuries, and the road to recovery has not been easy. Thankfully, they are both doing much better today. And here is the part of their story that really matters, they are not done with the RV lifestyle. The Larrimores have chosen to share what they went through, what they learned, and the lessons that could help every one of us travel safer and smarter. This is a powerful conversation about resilience, preparedness, and why even life-changing setbacks do not have to mean the end of the road.

RV NEWS OF THE WEEK Forget Candy Bars—This Iowa Mall Vending Machine Dispenses Starlink So we've heard of getting a can of soda or maybe a Snickers bar from a vending machine, but a Starlink system?? Yet that is exactly what happened in Iowa! A self-serve vending machine quietly appeared at a shopping mall's food court in Des Moines. It is designed to dispense a standard Starlink dish and accessories, including mounts and the Wi-Fi router. Word is that more are coming. No More Reservations: Glacier National Park Rethinks Summer Access This is a big story for fans of Glacier National Park… Reservations will NOT be needed at Glacier for the summer of 2026. Why, because the National Parks Service says the system did not work as planned. The reservation system, started four years ago, was supposed to cut down on long afternoon lines by requiring people to register to enter between 7 am and 4 pm. What happened is mid-day traffic was much better, but the early morning crowds trying to beat the registration time became problematic, causing new issues. So now the popular park is doing away with reservations altogether. Trump on the 2026 Park Pass? Lawsuit Says Not So Fast Okay… we try to steer away from politics but this is a story we couldn't ignore. An environmental group is suing to remove President Donald Trump's picture from the 2026 National Park Service's Annual Pass. The 2026 Annual Pass features a picture of President George Washington and President Trump and the number 250 for the country's 250th birthday. The Center for Biological Diversity's lawsuit claims the design violates a law that requires the America the Beautiful pass to feature a photo taken on public lands that won an annual photo contest. The Secretary of the Interior says the photo winner will be on the pass for foreign visitors, while Trump's picture will be on the one for U.S. residents. Stay tuned. Only in Gatlinburg: Black Bear Steals the Show at Christmas Parade Did you hear about what happened as crowds gathered to watch the Gatlinburg Fantasy of Lights 50th Annual Christmas Parade last week? A lone black bear meandered in. The black bear casually cut through the crowds and walked down the parade route for a bit, as stunned onlookers sat along the curb watching in disbelief. Some visitors captured video - after all, this is not something you see every day! Buc-ee's Goes Big Again: 17 New Mega Stops on the Way The ultimate road-trip stop, Buc-ee's, is planning to open 17 new locations across the country over the next few years. In 2026, the gigantic convenience store and fuel stop plans to open locations in Huber Heights, Ohio, San Marcos, Texas, and Goodyear, Arizona. Eight more stops are planned for 2027, five for 2028, and one for 2031. The Texas-based (and Texas-sized!) company is a popular destination for many RVers, and soon there will be even more locations along your route This part of the podcast is sponsored by Wholesale Warranties, where you can get the best deal on extended warranty coverage for your RVs. Starting January 1st, all RVs are considered one model year older, which means pricing and eligibility for warranty protection will change. Save money and protect your rig by signing up now.

Is this a fuse or breaker issue? Open to suggestions to fix the problem. RV connected to shore power. ANSWER: This happens a lot with RVs. It's almost always a tripped GFI plug. On the Unity, I believe it's on the side of the passenger pass-through storage area or in the bathroom. Just push in the little recessed switch between the plugs and you'll be good. QUESTION: From Larry: Why are Class B campervans so expensive? The one we want is almost $250,000. I can get a Class A for that, or a luxury fifth wheel and a brand new heavy-duty truck. I don't get it. Campervans are small. ANSWER: You're absolutely right to be scratching your head at those price tags. When you see a campervan that's basically built on a cargo van chassis hitting a quarter million dollars, it feels ridiculous, especially when you could roll into a dealership and drive out with a gorgeous 40-foot Class A motorhome for the same money. Or like you said, snag a top-of-the-line fifth wheel and a fully loaded F-350 and still have cash left over. Here's the deal: you're paying a massive premium for engineering magic in a tiny space. Think about it: those Class B builders are cramming a full bathroom with a real shower, a kitchen with actual counter space, sleeping accommodations, storage, and all your systems (electrical, plumbing, heating, cooling) into what's essentially a walk-in closet on wheels. That level of space efficiency doesn't come cheap. The other factor? Volume. The big RV manufacturers are pumping out hundreds or thousands of Class A motorhomes and fifth wheels every year. They've got economies of scale working for them. Meanwhile, Class B builders are producing these things in much smaller numbers, often with semi-custom features and higher-end components. You're not getting the mass-production discount. Plus, that Mercedes, Ford Transit or RAM ProMaster base chassis aren't exactly cheap to begin with, and then you're adding premium materials because everything has to be lightweight and compact. Those fancy European-style cabinets, that space-saving toilet, that innovative bed system: it all costs more than the standard RV stuff. And let's be honest, there's a lifestyle tax baked in too. Class B campervans became the hot ticket for a certain “van life” demographic who wants to look like they're just driving a cool van while secretly having all the amenities. That "stealth camping" capability and the ability to fit in a regular parking spot? The market will bear a premium price for those benefits. Does it make financial sense?

The episode kicks off with Matt Money Smith and Lorenzo Neal discussing the Chargers' impressive win over the Chiefs, highlighting how the team's defense dominated and essentially ended Kansas City's playoff hopes. They praise the Chargers' physical style of play, especially on defense, and note the impact of players like Khalil Mack and Derwin James, as well as the improved defensive scheme under coordinator Jesse Minter. They dive into the offense's performance, recognizing the run game's physicality but also expressing concerns about its inability to turn red-zone trips into touchdowns consistently. Looking ahead, they preview the upcoming game against the Cowboys and discuss playoff scenarios, emphasizing that if the Chargers' offense can hit 24 points, the defense is good enough to make the team a real contender.

Hanukkah is the Feast Of Dedication, the Festival of Lights, but what does it have for a Gentile?
Are your holiday lights bright enough to be seen from space?
When you grow up in a family that plays with Ouija boards and forgets to say goodbye… you don't always get to choose what steps through that open door. Years later, in a “perfectly normal” newer house in Independence, Missouri, Otis thinks the worst thing he has to deal with is his little sister talking about shadow people in the hallway. The lights are on, life is busy, and the strange stories are easy to shrug off—until the night everything goes dark. What do you do when something dead looks right at you and speaks? Was it a demon using the closest “face” it could find? A spirit called in years earlier by a game that was never properly closed? Or something much worse that decided Otis was finally old enough to notice it? #ghoststory #OuijaBoard #paranormal #hauntedhouse #realghoststories #shadowpeople #truehaunting #creepyencounter #possessedobject #demonicvoice #RealGhostStoriesOnline Love real ghost stories?

Da ist es also schon wieder: das Jahresende. Während Felix sich noch wundert, warum Zettel-Ewald Toni sogar bei einer Folge ohne Spielanalyse eine DIN-A4-Seite mit schönster Krickelkralle vollgeschrieben hat – und bei ihm selbst als Erstes „Tobi nach der besten Räucherforelle von Berlin fragen“ steht –, blickt Toni schon erstaunlich zufrieden und gelassen auf's vergangene Jahr. „Gut“ sei's wohl gewesen – wie gewohnt messerscharfe, nüchterne Analyse aus Madrid. Doch irgendwie war dann doch mehr los, als Toni zuerst erwartet hatte; zumindest sagt das der Blick auf die eigene Fotorolle. Highlights, Lowlights, mittelmäßig helle Lights – alles dabei gewesen. Vom gemeinsamen Spiel auf dem Icon-League-Geläuf über Bundesverdienstkreuze, Zweitliga-Topspiele bei seinRTL bis hin zum MeckPommer-Verdienstorden. Man stellt also fest: Es war doch schon einiges los hier. Zur Erinnerung daran, dass selbst im eigenen Podcast einiges „los war“, stellt Hörer Max direkt vom Paddel-Court eine Frage, die zur weiteren Selbstreflexion einlädt. Verabschieden wir uns also mit Opa Kroos' und Tonis Neujahrsvorsätzen ins neue Jahr: „Ausblick 2026: weiter so!“ und „Man nimmt es, wie es kommt. Man soll sich ja nicht zu viel vornehmen.“ Von wem welcher Vorsatz kommt, könnt ihr selbst entscheiden. Du möchtest mehr über unsere Werbepartner erfahren?

Fluent Fiction - Danish: Flickering Lights to Futures: A Startup Christmas Tale Find the full episode transcript, vocabulary words, and more:fluentfiction.com/da/episode/2025-12-16-23-34-02-da Story Transcript:Da: Inde i det travle rum i Københavns startup inkubator hang julelysene i loftet og klingede blidt mod hinanden.En: Inside the busy room of Københavns startup incubator, Christmas lights hung from the ceiling and gently clinked against each other.Da: Rummet var fyldt med ivrige iværksættere, der alle drømte om at blive den næste store succes i tech-branchen.En: The room was filled with eager entrepreneurs, all dreaming of becoming the next big success in the tech industry.Da: Silja stod nær et lille bord, hendes app på skærmen foran hende.En: Silja stood near a small table, her app displayed on the screen in front of her.Da: Hun tog en dyb indånding og rettede skuldrene.En: She took a deep breath and straightened her shoulders.Da: Det var en vigtig dag.En: It was an important day.Da: Silja var ambitiøs.En: Silja was ambitious.Da: Hun drømte om at lancere sin app, som skulle forbinde lokale kunstnere med købere.En: She dreamed of launching her app, which aimed to connect local artists with buyers.Da: Hendes søster, Maja, havde besluttet sig for at tage med som støtte.En: Her sister, Maja, had decided to come along for support.Da: Maja, selv om hun var skeptisk, var der for Silja.En: Maja, although skeptical, was there for Silja.Da: “Jeg tror på dig, Silja,” sagde Maja blidt, mens hun holdt en kop varm gløgg.En: “I believe in you, Silja,” Maja said gently, while holding a cup of warm gløgg.Da: Et par meter derfra stod Erik med en tablet i hænderne.En: A few meters away stood Erik with a tablet in hand.Da: Han var en dygtig softwareudvikler, men skeptisk over for nye projekter, da han tidligere havde oplevet nogle fiaskoer.En: He was a skilled software developer but skeptical about new projects after experiencing some failures in the past.Da: Men der var alligevel noget ved arrangementet, der tiltalte ham.En: However, there was something appealing about the event.Da: Han lyttede til de forskellige pitches, mens han spekulerede på potentielle samarbejder.En: He listened to various pitches, pondering potential collaborations.Da: Da Erik nåede Siljas stand, fangede noget hendes opmærksomhed ved hans rolige og analytiske væsen.En: When Erik reached Silja's booth, something about his calm and analytical demeanor caught her attention.Da: Hun tog chancen.En: She seized the opportunity.Da: “Hej, jeg er Silja,” sagde hun og gav ham hånden.En: “Hi, I'm Silja,” she said, extending her hand to him.Da: “Jeg tror måske, du vil kunne lide min app.” Erik lyttede opmærksomt, mens Silja passioneret forklarede sin vision.En: “I think you might like my app.” Erik listened attentively as Silja passionately explained her vision.Da: Han kunne lide hendes entusiasme og den klare idé.En: He liked her enthusiasm and clear idea.Da: Men han tøvede stadig lidt.En: But he still hesitated a little.Da: Silja svarede ivrigt på hans spørgsmål, men hun mærkede frustrationen vokse.En: Silja eagerly answered his questions, but she could feel frustration growing.Da: De andre startups var stærke konkurrenter.En: The other startups were strong competitors.Da: Midt i deres diskussion blinkede lysene et par gange og gik derefter ud.En: In the middle of their discussion, the lights flickered a few times and then went out.Da: Pludselig stod de i halvmørke, kun oplyst af de julelys, der stadig glødede.En: Suddenly, they were in semi-darkness, only illuminated by the Christmas lights that still glowed.Da: “Det her komplicerer det,” sagde Silja med et grin, mens hun fiskede en kuglepen og et papir op fra tasken.En: “This complicates things,” Silja said with a laugh, fishing out a pen and paper from her bag.Da: “Lad os gøre det på gammeldags måde.” Under de glødende lys begyndte Erik og Silja at skitsere idéer.En: “Let's do this the old-fashioned way.” Under the glowing lights, Erik and Silja began sketching ideas.Da: Måske var det juleånden, men Erik begyndte at føle en ny optimisme vokse i sig.En: Perhaps it was the Christmas spirit, but Erik began to feel a new optimism growing within him.Da: “Du har virkelig noget her,” sagde han og smilede til Silja.En: “You really have something here,” he said, smiling at Silja.Da: Pludselig var strømmen tilbage.En: Suddenly, the power returned.Da: Skærmen foran dem blev lys igen, og deres noteside var en rodebunke af idéer.En: The screen in front of them lit up again, and their notes were a jumble of ideas.Da: Men de havde nået et gennembrud.En: But they had reached a breakthrough.Da: Silja strålede.En: Silja beamed.Da: “Vi gjorde det!” udbrød hun.En: “We did it!” she exclaimed.Da: Erik nikkede, lettere overrasket over at finde sig selv så begejstret for et nyt projekt.En: Erik nodded, somewhat surprised to find himself so excited about a new project.Da: "Vi skal fejre det her," foreslog han.En: "We should celebrate this," he proposed.Da: “Lad os tage en festlig middag.” Sammen gik de ud i den kolde, vinterbeklædte aften i København, med Maja ved deres side.En: “Let's have a festive dinner.” Together, they stepped out into the cold, winter-clad night in København, with Maja by their side.Da: Silja havde lært at lade andre hjælpe og stole på dem omkring hende.En: Silja had learned to let others help and trust those around her.Da: Erik havde fundet ny tro på nye muligheder.En: Erik had found new faith in new opportunities.Da: Snart sad de på en hyggelig restaurant, og med varme retter foran sig og smilene lysende, fejrede de begyndelsen på deres partnerskab og opdagelsen af tillid.En: Soon they were sitting in a cozy restaurant, with warm dishes in front of them and smiles shining, celebrating the beginning of their partnership and the discovery of trust.Da: Julelysene omkring dem spejlede en ny begyndelse og nærhed.En: The Christmas lights around them reflected a new beginning and closeness.

The massacre at a Hanukkah gathering at Sydney's iconic Bondi Beach killed 15 people this weekend. Two gunmen opened fire on celebrations for the first night of the Jewish Festival of Lights. Australian officials quickly labeled the assault an antisemitic act of terrorism. As Geoff Bennett reports, shock and grief were matched by anger and urgent questions.

:Have you ever wondered how it feels to say goodbye to a beloved Austin institution that's been serving up classic Tex-Mex for four decades? In this heartfelt episode of The JB and Sandy Show, the crew kicks things off with sad news: the iconic South Congress location of El Mercado is closing its doors for good this Wednesday, December 17th – but don't worry, the Burnet Road spot lives on, and you can still grab their famous salsa at HEB! The team dives into Austin's ever-changing landscape, debating Torchy's vs. Taco Deli (you're one or the other, right?), sharing hilarious foil-eating mishaps, and reminiscing about classics like Matt's El Rancho and the "all-American taco." They also reflect on saying farewell to longtime spots like Catfish Parlor and ponder what's next for that prime SoCo real estate (condos, anyone?).Things heat up with the Story We Love: Austin City Council just greenlit Southwest Airlines' huge expansion at ABIA, bringing 2,000 new jobs with an jaw-dropping average salary of $180,000! Could this mean more direct flights, cheaper fares, and Austin-based pilots and crews? The gang breaks it all down.Then, hop in the Wayback Machine as Sandy finally dives into the legendary Mad Men – four episodes in and already hooked on Don Draper's mysterious past (is he a deserter?!), the nonstop smoking and cocktails, pointy bras, and that shocking picnic litter scene. JB raves about rewatching it endlessly, while they marvel at the 1960s office antics and unforgettable characters like Christina Hendricks.Memorable moments include: "You're going to eat a little bit of foil" from Taco Deli tacos, tales of accidentally devouring In-N-Out wrapper paper, and laughs over vintage lingerie that looked like "the Egyptian pyramids." Cold weather debates, hot chocolate rants, and Pioneer Woman's shoutout to Austin's Trail of Lights round out this fun, nostalgic ride through Austin life and pop culture.Don't miss this mix of local heartbreak, big news, and binge-worthy TV talk – tune in now before El Mercado's final day slips away! Hit play, subscribe for more daily Austin vibes, leave us a review, and share with your fellow Texans who bleed breakfast tacos and Mad Men drama.

Australian officials quickly labeled the assault an antisemitic act of terrorism. As Geoff Bennett reports, shock and grief were matched by anger and urgent questions.

Drawing on research and local data showing minimal impact on patient outcomes but significant safety risks—including increased ambulance collisions—Chief Stroud explains why the department is prioritizing safer, more measured responses for priority two calls, which make up 75% of dispatches.

Remembering The Miracles Of Hanukkah Part 2: The Festival Of Lights And The Miracle Of The Oil - English only. Why is Hanukkah called the Festival of Lights? There is an ancient legend that the Maccabees only had enough oil to light the Temple menorah for one night, yet the lamps burned for 8 nights. Do we have evidence that this legend is true? If not, why do still call this the Festival of Lights? Join us as we search through Jewish sources for the history of this celebration! This is a rebroadcast of a podcast originally recorded on December 20, 2022. This year, 2025, the eight day celebration of the Festival of Hanukkah began at sunset on Sunday, December 14, 2025.

One of my favorite parts of Christmas is the lights! My guest today is new author Makennah Johnston, who has just published a wonderful children's story called "The McBrights": "Every Christmas Eve, the McBrights dazzle from the branches of the Evergreen Tree in Henbrook's town square, warming hearts with their old-fashioned glow. This year, however, something isn't quite right. The McBrights are left in their storage box for longer than usual, and when they are finally unpacked, they find themselves for sale at an antique store! They may be vintage, but their bulbs aren't burnt out yet. Bernie McBright is determined to get his family shining where they belong. Could the store's newest visitor be the spark the McBrights need to light up Christmas once more?" I also recommend another children's Christmas book called The Candy Cane Forest by Lindsay Ann Fink. It's a charming and colorful story of how Santa's elves plant and grow one of my favorite Christmas treats - Candy canes! After that I wrap up with a few thoughts on the lights of Christmas, and what they mean to me.

Christmas is filled with familiar traditions—songs, decorations, and images of angels—but what if we've missed the heart of their message? In this message, Minister Alex Ehly explores the four angel encounters of Christmas and reveals how their repeated words, “do not be afraid,” still speak directly to our fear, uncertainty, and exhaustion today.Walking through the stories of Zechariah, Mary, Joseph, and the shepherds, this message reminds us that angels were never meant to be admired—their role was to deliver good news to tired believers, ordinary people, disrupted plans, and the forgotten. When fear rises and control feels out of reach, Christmas doesn't call us to perform better or fix ourselves. It invites us to rest, because God is already at work. This message offers hope for anyone wrestling with anxiety, doubt, disappointment, or the feeling that their faith has grown weary.

Join us as we dive into A Very '70s Christmas, exploring the decade's grooviest most chaotic and most unforgettable holiday moments.On this episode, prepare for:• The Ultimate '70s Soundtrack: Hear 12 original non-cover Christmas songs from 1970–1979. We spin soulful classics by Donnie Hathaway ("This Christmas") and the anti-war anthem from John Lennon and Yoko Ono ("Happy Christmas (War Is Over)"). We rock out with glam anthems like Slade's "Merry Christmas Everybody" and Wizard's "I Wish It Could Be Christmas Every Day," and feature progressive rock from Greg Lake ("I Believe in Father Christmas"). We also highlight The Kinks' social commentary with "Father Christmas" and the shimmering synthesizer sound of Paul McCartney's "Wonderful Christmastime."• Silent Nights and Scandalous Lights (Rock Talk): This segment reveals the drama behind the tinsel. Discover the high-pressure childhood of the Jackson 5 while recording their Christmas album which required endless touring rehearsals and late-night tapings. Hear about the near-disaster when a KISS pyro charge misfired during a 1974 Michigan show nearly turning the stage into a flaming ornament. Plus we cover the tense improvised creation of David Bowie and Bing Crosby's iconic "Peace on Earth/Little Drummer Boy" duet which was written on the spot because Bowie hated the original song.• Busted on the Back in Time Radio Show (Stupid Christmas Criminals): We expose bizarre true tales including the case of the drunk Santa who stole his own suit at a food court bar in Minneapolis the man who sabotaged a gingerbread house contest in Albany and the elf impersonator caught with three wallets stuffed in her tights at a corporate party in Columbus. We also recount the international case of the German ceramic mug thieves at a Munich Christmas market.• The Good, The Bad, and The Ugly of '70s Toys: Get nostalgic with the origins of the Nerf ball (the first indoor ball) and the beloved Atari 2600.
