In this episode of Bigfoot Society, a listener named Stevie shares a chilling firsthand encounter from Rock Creek, Maryland, where unexplained Bigfoot-like whooping sounds echoed through dense woods late at night—so close that his former Marine stepfather stepped outside with a gun and later installed security cameras around the home.The sounds erupted near Rock Creek Park, just minutes from Washington DC, an area surrounded by neighborhoods, highways, and urban development. Multiple witnesses heard the same vocalizations, including neighbors and reacting dogs throughout the area.Stevie also recounts an earlier unexplained experience from Colorado's Grand Mesa, where something silently removed food from a campsite cooler and carefully arranged cans on a picnic table—behavior that didn't match known wildlife.

Send us a textA Bigfoot sweater, a heavy backpack full of mics, and a plane to Orlando—our year closes with the perfect mix of ride stories, travel plans, and one serious warning every cyclist needs to hear. We're gearing up for Podfest, turning a living room into a studio, and cashing in on a DVC Moonlight Magic night that lets us skip the crowds and snag a few hours of park time. Along the way, we talk about how a smarter packing checklist, a better mic deal, and some SNL-worthy podcast jokes became part of our annual rhythm.The community takes center stage with a sharp Listener Spotlight reveal: Mesa, Arizona, where ancient canals still inform modern life and towering saguaros are protected for good reason. That maps neatly into our revamped BRAG route-guessing contest—a fairer point system that rewards the correct town on the correct night, and a big bonus for the layover. It's competitive, nerdy in the best way, and proof our listeners know roads we haven't yet ridden. Yes, a custom jersey is on the line, but the real prize is the thrill of being right.Then comes the must-hear segment: counterfeit bike parts. A recent $1.6M seizure of fake frames, bars, wheels, and components—some stamped with household cycling brands—reminds us that a bargain can be dangerous. We unpack the difference between knockoffs and counterfeits, why serial numbers can be forged, and how to protect yourself: buy critical components from reputable dealers or your local bike shop, verify serials, and second-guess prices that look magical. It's not about brand loyalty; it's about staying upright.We wrap with our top moments of the year—post-ride honesty, “one more mile” lies, bourbon wisdom—and a simple truth: we may not be getting faster, but the stories keep getting better. If you're here for community, safe gear, and a reason to ride tomorrow, you're in the right place.If this resonated, follow and subscribe, share it with a friend who loves bikes, and drop a review to help other riders find the show.

Episode 151 of the Award Travel 101 podcast, hosted by Angie Sparks and Joseph Petrovic, covers a wide range of travel and points news before diving into a full recap of ZorkFest. In the news segment, the hosts discuss Mesa unexpectedly shutting down accounts, changes to the Ritz-Carlton card's lounge guest policy, JetBlue's new Terminal 5 lounge with very limited access, and concerns around a Cathay Pacific transfer devaluation from Amex Membership Rewards. They also highlight year-end checklist reminders, such as expiring credits, point pooling, and spending thresholds. Angie and Joe share recent bonuses, card closures, and points earned, along with detailed trip updates involving Vegas, Japan, Orlando, Phoenix, and upcoming meetups.The main topic centers on ZorkFest, a unique event that blends traditional travel rewards with casino loyalty programs. Held at the M Resort in Henderson, Nevada, ZorkFest attracts attendees interested in high expected value opportunities, cost-effective stays (including bookings with Choice points), and hands-on learning through labs and live gaming experiences with experts. Both Angie and Joe recount their flights, hotel experiences, and why the event stands out: strong presenters, opportunities for new players, and a focus on maximizing rewards across both travel and casino ecosystems. The hosts note that the event just wrapped up and is likely to return next year.The episode wraps with miscellaneous trip highlights, community connections, and a “Tip of the Week” emphasizing adaptability. Joe stresses that points and miles opportunities are constantly changing, with earning avenues and redemption paths frequently disappearing. The key takeaway is to stay flexible, plan ahead, and be ready to pivot strategies as programs evolve—an especially timely reminder given the rapid changes discussed throughout the episode.Episode links:Mesa ShutdownRitz Lounge AccessJetBlue JFK LoungeCathay DevaluationWhere to Find Us The Award Travel 101 Facebook Community.

This special honeymoon edition of Quick Hits comes to you from 40,000 feet in the air, as DeAndre records mid-flight on the world's longest route from JFK to Singapore. With travel in full swing, this episode focuses only on the most critical updates in points and miles, along with a brief look at the honeymoon itinerary.The biggest news of the week is the sudden and unexpected shutdown of the Mesa Homeowners Card. Once considered a breakthrough option for earning transferable points on mortgage payments, Mesa abruptly closed all cardholder accounts, deactivating cards and freezing new earning overnight. While the closure is not related to cardholder behavior, it has triggered a scramble to move or redeem remaining points. A workaround discovered by the community allows some transfers to partners, and DeAndre shares where listeners can find that information.The episode wraps with a quick travel update, including upcoming stops in Singapore, Hong Kong, and Fiji, before settling into the heart of the honeymoon. For the next few weeks, Quick Hits will remain shorter and focus only on significant news.Key takeaways: Mesa card shutdown: Mesa abruptly closed all Homeowners Card accounts without prior notice.Earning halted immediately: Cards were deactivated, and new purchases or point earning are no longer possible.No wrongdoing involved: Mesa confirmed closures were not due to customer behavior or account issues.Transfer workaround: A community-discovered method may allow transfers to Mesa partners.Statement credit fallback: Redeeming at ~0.6¢ per point remains an option, though not ideal.Trust concerns: The shutdown raises questions about Mesa's future and customer confidence.Honeymoon mode: Quick Hits episodes will be shorter and focus on only major updates.Interested in Financial Planning?Truicity Wealth ManagementResources:Mesa Workaround for Missing Points Transfer OptionsBook a Free 30-minute points & miles consultationStart here to learn how to unlock nearly free travelSign up for our newsletter!
No “Estadão Analisa” desta sexta-feira, 19, Carlos Andreazza comenta sobre a decisão da Mesa Diretora da Câmara dos Deputados que cassou os mandatos dos deputados Eduardo Bolsonaro (PL-SP) e Alexandre Ramagem (PL-RJ). A informação foi confirmada ao Estadão/Broadcast por integrantes da direção da Casa legislativa e mais tarde oficializada em publicação do Diário Oficial da Câmara. Os dois deputados estão fora do País. Eduardo Bolsonaro está autoexilado nos Estados Unidos. Alexandre Ramagem, condenado pelo Supremo Tribunal Federal, está foragido, também nos EUA. O líder do PL, deputado Sóstenes Cavalcante (RJ), manifestou contrariedade com a decisão. Ele relatou que às 16h40 recebeu uma ligação do presidente da Câmara, Hugo Motta (Republicanos-PB), comunicando a decisão da Mesa pela cassação dos aliados do ex-presidente Jair Bolsonaro. Sóstenes disse lamentar a medida e sustentou que ela “representa mais um passo no esvaziamento da soberania do Parlamento”.

Lembra do PETA? Pois é, eles estão de volta. A organização dessa vez arrumou problema com o jogo das garotas-cavalo Umamusume: Pretty Derby.

¡Saludos queridos amigos!¿Sabías que más de 700 años antes de Cristo, Dios, por medio de los profetas, anunció anticipadamente cómo y dónde se produciría la Encarnación de su Hijo eterno? ¿Qué significó ysignifica que Dios viniera a vivir con nosotros, y en nosotros? ¿A qué nuevos comienzos dio lugar que Dios tomara carne, y qué tiene que ver con la nueva creación en Cristo? La CIG te invita a que escuches el mensaje titulado 4º advto.25 UN NUEVO COMIENZO. En él tratamos de explicar, de forma expositiva la Palabra de Dios, iluminada por el Espíritu Santo, conforme a lo que registra Isaías 62:6–12, yde contestar a las preguntas planteadas y a algunas más.¡Pedimos que andemos todos bajo la amorosa, misericordiosa y soberana bendición de Dios, te aproveche y que tengáis una feliz, gozosa y agradecida Navidad!

Confira os destaques de Os Pingos nos Is desta terça-feira (16):O presidente Lula (PT) afirmou ter enviado uma mensagem ao presidente dos Estados Unidos, Donald Trump (Republicano), agradecendo pela retirada da Lei Magnitsky e pedindo o fim das sanções contra outras autoridades brasileiras. Segundo Lula, Brasil e Estados Unidos ainda têm pendências a resolver, mas a relação comercial e política segue em processo de normalização. O ex-presidente Jair Bolsonaro (PL) aceitou uma versão mais restrita do projeto de redução de penas para réus do 8 de janeiro, que não o beneficiaria diretamente. A proposta, defendida pelo senador Veneziano Vital do Rêgo (MDB-PB), deve ser debatida apenas em 2026. Segundo Flávio Bolsonaro (PL-RJ), o ex-presidente afirmou que sua prioridade é ver manifestantes em casa, mesmo que ele próprio cumpra pena. A pesquisa Quaest divulgada nesta terça-feira aponta que o senador Flávio Bolsonaro (PL) é o nome mais competitivo da oposição contra o presidente Lula (PT) na disputa presidencial de 2026. No levantamento, Lula aparece com 39% das intenções de voto, enquanto Flávio soma 23%, superando outros nomes como Tarcísio de Freitas, Ronaldo Caiado, Romeu Zema e Ratinho Junior. O governo de São Paulo, sob a gestão de Tarcísio de Freitas (Republicanos) e do então secretário de Segurança Pública Guilherme Derrite (PL), registrou em outubro os menores índices de roubos, latrocínios e homicídios desde 2001. Segundo a Secretaria de Segurança, a taxa de mortes caiu de 33,3 para 5,53 por 100 mil habitantes. O governo atribui os resultados ao uso de tecnologia, inteligência policial e a programas como a Muralha Paulista. O presidente da Câmara dos Deputados, Hugo Motta (Republicanos), decidiu não levar ao plenário a votação sobre a perda de mandato do deputado Alexandre Ramagem (PL-RJ). A decisão foi concentrada na Mesa Diretora como forma de reduzir tensões entre os Poderes e no Congresso. A tendência é que a Mesa também analise os casos de Eduardo Bolsonaro (PL-SP), Carla Zambelli (PL-SP) e Glauber Braga (PSOL-RJ). Após a vitória de José Antonio Kast no Chile, o presidente da Argentina, Javier Milei (La Libertad Avanza), compartilhou uma imagem que retrata o Brasil e outros países governados pela esquerda como uma grande favela. A publicação contrasta nações alinhadas à direita com países sob governos progressistas e afirma que a população sul-americana pede liberdade e o fim do que chamou de socialismo empobrecedor. Os Estados Unidos elevaram a tensão na América Latina ao classificar a gangue colombiana Clan del Golfo como organização terrorista. Segundo o Departamento de Estado, a medida busca conter a violência de cartéis e grupos criminosos transnacionais. A decisão abre brechas para possíveis operações no país governado por Gustavo Petro (Colômbia). Você confere essas e outras notícias em Os Pingos nos Is.

Sin buscarlo ni imaginarlo, la vida de Ubeimar Ríos dio un giro inesperado en el último año. Todo comenzó con una sugerencia casual de un familiar de su esposa para presentarse a un casting, según él, Oscar, El personaje, parecía escrito a la medida de Ubeimar. Muchos Meses después, Ubeimar recibió la noticia que había sido elegido por el director Simón Mesa para protagonizar Un poeta, una película colombiana estrenada en 2025 que ha sido globalmente aplaudida.La interpretación de Ubeimar ha sido reconocida en prestigiosos festivales alrededor del mundo, con premios a Mejor Actor en lugares como Biarritz, Lima, India y La Habana.Ubeimar es oriundo de Rionegro, Antioquia, esta casado, tiene 3 hijos y es profesor de un colegio público desde hace más de 31 años. A lo largo de su vida ha sido un incansable gestor cultural, promoviendo la filosofía, la poesía y la música en su comunidad. Sin embargo, nunca imaginó que aventurarse en la actuación a los 54 años le traería tantas “primeras veces”: su primer viaje al exterior, el reconocimiento de críticos de cine internacionales, titulares en medios de comunicación e incluso la posibilidad de compartir espacios con celebridades como Angelina Jolie.En este episodio hablamos con Ubeimar más allá del personaje. Recorrimos su vida antes, durante y después de Un poeta, además reflexionamos sobre su mirada del arte, de Colombia y de la vida misma. Una conversación sobre el azar, la vocación y el poder transformador de los escenarios culturales.

Step into Episode 190 of On the Delo as David DeLorenzo sits down with longtime friend and Arizona hospitality pro Tiffany for a candid conversation about life behind the bar, responsible service, mental health, and launching a new industry-driven concept in downtown Mesa. From nearly two decades in restaurants and bars to opening “The Walk In” while navigating new motherhood, Tiffany pulls back the curtain on what it really takes to care for guests, protect your team, and still protect your own energy. If you're in hospitality, own a bar or restaurant, or just love the Arizona beer community, this one gives you real-world perspective and practical takeaways you can use right now.Hear how Tiffany went from a 19-year-old hostess at Native New Yorker in Tempe to a respected leader in Arizona's craft beer scene, shaping programs at spots like Cornish Pasty, Postino Gilbert, and The Sleepy Whale. She breaks down the psychology of reading guests, the art and “mama bear” finesse of cutting someone off, and why hospitality that feels like family is the only way to stand out when people are more selective than ever about where they spend their money. The conversation also dives into how therapy, boundaries, lifting, early mornings, and porch coffee help her manage burnout and stay grounded in an industry that often expects you to be “on” no matter what's happening in your own life.You'll also get an inside look at The Walk In, the new “grandma's basement” bar Tiffany is opening in a historic basement space in downtown Mesa with partners Chris Rogers and Thad Krosky. Think cozy couches, wood paneling, beer neons, beer, natural wine, vinyl nights, and a serious non-alcoholic program designed for people who want the full experience without the booze. Tiffany shares the real startup journey: losing their first dream Tempe location, regrouping with help from community and a strong broker, finding the former Sun Devil Liquor basement and its old cellar “relics,” and deciding they don't have to settle for anything less than the right space.Chapter Guide (Timestamps):(0:00 - 2:40) Saturday Morning Vibes and Episode 190 Intro(2:41 - 5:56) Tiffany's Start in Hospitality: Native New Yorker, ASU, and Falling in Love with the Industry(5:57 - 12:40) Psychology Behind the Bar: Reading Guests, Responsible Service, and Care Over Transactions(12:41 - 18:21) Arizona Beer Community: Hospitality, Storytelling, and Surviving a Changing Market(18:22 - 23:58) Building The Walk In: Concept, Partners, Mental Health Focus, and Learning the Business Side(23:59 - 30:38) Losing a Location, Finding a Basement: Tempe Setbacks, Downtown Mesa, and Not Settling(30:39 - 37:56) Non-Alcoholic Programs, Mental Wellness, Therapy, and Coping Without the Crutch of Alcohol(37:57 - 43:21) Motherhood, Support Systems, Arizona Roots, and Raising Riley in Hospitality(43:22 - 47:24) Rapid Fire: Music, Tattoos, Aliens, Gold Shows, and Strength Inside and Outside the Bar(47:25 - 48:39) What's Next: Copper State Beer Festival and Built Different Community Invite

La costumbre de salir a comer a restaurantes parece estar siendo amenaza por la conveniencia de comer en casa el mismo menú que el restaurante ofrece. Un reciente artículo en The Atlantic asegura que la proliferación y uso de las apps de comida a domicilio, no solo está transformando la industria de la hospitalidad, sino que además está menguando las posibilidades de interacción social alrededor de una buena mesa. Los restaurantes, por su parte, están adaptando sus modelos para sobrevivir, priorizando la eficiencia y la logística sobre la experiencia culinaria y social. Esto reduce la importancia del diseño, la hospitalidad y la interacción humana. Interesantemente, la comida y la convivencia alrededor de una mesa son parte esencial de la experiencia de fe cristiana. Después de todo, la Mesa del Señor es una oportunidad de encontrarnos con Dios y con el prójimo. La Santa Cena es un recordatorio constante de la superioridad de la comunidad ante la conveniencia gastronómica.Dona a Radio Moody: https://give.moodyradio.org/radio-moody/See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

O cronista fala das motivações da greve e critica o Governo: "só partiu para o diálogo quando percebeu que ia levar com uma greve em cima, foi tarde". Sousa Tavares diz que terá de existir um recuo, mas defende uma mudança porque "não podemos continuar colados a direitos laborais que faziam sentido há 50 anos".

Buen Provecho: sabores cercanos, territorios vivosEn este capítulo de Paredro converso con cuatro voces fundamentales para entender la relación entre alimentación, territorio y cultura: Catalina Cock (Fundación Mi Sangre), Maritza Sánchez Hernández, Julia Alejandra Mejía y Lucas Posada. Cada una, desde su trayectoria, ilumina una forma distinta de pensar la comida como memoria, identidad y acto de futuro.A partir de la campaña “Buen provecho. Sabores cercanos”, exploramos qué significa volver a mirar los alimentos locales, cómo se transforma un sistema alimentario desde la comunidad y por qué nuestras decisiones cotidianas pueden regenerar prácticas, economías y vínculos que creíamos perdidos.Hablamos de ingredientes olvidados, de narrativas culinarias, de investigación, de agrobiodiversidad, de cocina como resistencia y de la importancia de preguntarnos de dónde viene lo que comemos.Este episodio es una invitación a mirar el plato con otros ojos y a reconocer que allí también se juega la vida en común.#BuenProvecho #SaboresCercanos #CatalinaCock #LuzMarinaVélez #JuliaAlejandraMejía #LucasPosada #FundaciónMiSangre #CulturaAlimentaria #CocinaColombiana #Territorio #Agrobiodiversidad #CocinaIntuitiva #SomosLoQueComemos
