On May 14, Austria, Belgium, Denmark, Estonia, Finland, France, Germany, Iceland, Liechtenstein, Luxembourg, Monaco, Netherlands, Norway, Sweden, Switzerland, Benin, Indonesia, Madagascar, Namibia, Vanuatu, and a few other countries celebrated a National Holiday, complete with the closing of schools, banks, and government offices. In Germany, the holiday is called “Christi Himmelfahrt”, which likely brings a smile to us English speakers! “Christi Himmelfahrt” literally means “Christ's Heavenly Journey” and is a celebration of the day JESUS Ascended back to heaven, 40 days after His resurrection. Like Christmas, in most places, it has been highly secularized, often losing any real connection to the earthly life and ministry of JESUS. Learning this, raised a question for me. “Why don't we celebrate it?” The Ascension of JESUS back to heaven brought many incredible, tangible blessings to our lives. In fact, after some intense study, I would say that it rivals Christmas Day in the number and power of the blessings it provides us! I'm praying you'll make plans now to join us for this message, as we celebrate all JESUS has done for us in HIS return to heaven! Pastor Joe Still

RUNDOWN   Mitch and Hotshot Scott open Episode 383 by marveling at the bizarre obsession surrounding the NFL schedule release, questioning why fans and media treat dates and kickoff times like breaking world events. And then, they break down the Seahawks' newly released schedule, from the bizarre Rams clustering and overloaded prime time slate to the brutal late-season stretch loaded with short weeks and playoff-caliber opponents. The conversation turns into a bigger NFC West discussion, with Mitch quietly predicting San Francisco wins the division while Seattle lands at 11–6 and grabs a wild card spot. Mitch, Brady, and Joe dissect a Mariners club that suddenly looks lifeless after another ugly series loss to San Diego, with injuries piling up and the offense disappearing again. The conversation centers on whether Colt Emerson's promotion can inject energy into a flat clubhouse, why Seattle's veteran-heavy roster may lack emotional spark, and whether the AL West being mediocre is the only thing keeping the season afloat right now. Mitch and Puck bounce from petty website slights and Tiger Woods speculation into a spirited debate over Cal Raleigh playing hurt and the Mariners' late-game strategy. The real fireworks come when Mitch unveils his theory that the NFL intentionally put Mike Vrabel and the Patriots in a primetime opener against Seattle.   GUESTS   Brady Farkas | Host, Refuse to Lose podcast Joe Doyle | MLB analyst, Over-Slot Jason Puckett | KJ-Aren'ts / Puck Drop   TABLE OF CONTENTS   0:00 | Why NFL Schedule Release Day Feels Like a National Holiday, Mariners Frustration, and the Show's Weekly Birthday and Music Trivia Segment 14:09 | NFL Drops Seahawks Schedule — Brutal Stretches, Prime Time Chaos & Niners Fear 31:57 | Mariners No-Table: Brady Farkas and Joe Doyle — Mariners analysts breaking down Seattle's mounting injuries, clubhouse energy issues, and the debut of top prospect Colt Emerson. 56:05 | KJ-Aren't's Jason Puckett: Mitch Thinks the NFL Just Punished Mike Vrabel on National TV 1:13:55 | Other Stuff Segment: Ronda Rousey vs. Gina Carano disappointment, Tyson Fury's teenage daughter getting married, PGA Championship winner Aaron Rai and his iron covers story, Shohei Ohtani's historic two-way dominance, Kyle Schwarber's absurd home run pace, Tiger Woods returning from Swiss rehab, Mitch's Palm Beach airport stories, Carl Pavano divorce allegations, Desmond Mason arrest and memorabilia dispute, fake Caitlin Clark engagement rumors, Perry Como vs. Sinatra debate, Dr. Hook memories HEADLINES 14-year-old steals a bus for the third time in six months, hantavirus allegedly linked to penis shrinkage, Maine students accidentally fed dirt at school, suckerfish swimming inside manta rays causing "issues" RIPs Brandon Clark, Jason Collins, Charlie Young, Craig Morton, Lou Graham, Jim Colbert, Rex Reed, Donald Gibb, Dennis Locorriere

In this Carmen Talk, I'm diving into a topic we all pretend to joke about but secretly stress over — aging. And you know me, I'm not here to sugarcoat anything or pretend I've got it all figured out. I'm just sharing the truth of how I got here.I talk about why birthdays have always felt like a blessing to me, how growing up without consistent adults shaped the way I see time, and what it meant to lose my mom when she was only 49. Those early years taught me something I didn't even understand until much later: getting older is the goal.We also get into the fun stuff — the stages of life we celebrate, the ones we dread, why women get hit with so much negativity around aging, and why I actually feel calmer, more grounded, and more myself now than I ever did in my 20s or 30s. There's even a little Star Trek wisdom in here because… well, it's me.If you've ever rolled your eyes at your own birthday or felt that little panic when someone asks your age, this episode might give you a different way to look at it — lighter, kinder, and a whole lot more joyful.If this episode brought you a little joy, consider liking, subscribing, or sharing it with someone who might need it.

Lawmakers to View Unredacted Epstein Files. Hegseth vs The Boy Scouts and Harvard. JD Vance Booed at Olympics. US Olympians Speak Out Against ICE. Super Bowl Monday Should be a National Holiday.  It's Super Bowl Monday and Independent Americans host Paul Rieckhoff is unpacking a wild 24 hours in America—from a politically charged halftime show and Seattle's gritty win to dangerous ICE raids, new 9/11 revelations, and the most political Olympics yet.

It's independent content for independent Americans in a time when trusted news, politics, inspiration, and hope are in short supply. In this all‑new solo “Manosphere Monday” episode, Paul ties together Bad Bunny's historic halftime performance and its “the only thing more powerful than hate is love” message, Trump-world backlash, and the NFL's bet on Latino and Puerto Rican culture as a preview of America's demographic future. He launches “Manosphere Monday” with real talk on male leadership, raising boys, and men's health—spotlighting prostate screenings via that unforgettable “Relax Your Tight End” Novartis ad. Along the way he exposes chilling ICE abuses, honors murdered Minneapolis VA hero Alex Preti, and reveals a newly surfaced 9/11 memo showing New York City officials quietly worried about toxic air and legal liability while first responders and residents were told it was safe.​ Paul also tracks Trump's war on the free press, Pentagon stonewalling, Pete Hegseth's escalating culture war against the Boy Scouts and Harvard, JD Vance getting booed at the Olympics, and why Ukraine's athletes are now the spiritual center of the Games. He highlights the growing movement for open primaries, new polling showing Americans are fed up with partisan primaries, and why veterans and independents are leading the charge to reclaim our democracy—before closing with some sports hope in college hoops, March Madness, and his surging St. John's Johnnies. If you're exhausted by partisan spin, corporate media, and performative “manosphere” grifters, this is your alternative, independent briefing on Super Bowl Monday—packed with politics, culture, sports, and honest conversation about health, masculinity, and American leadership.

Richard Samuelson looks at the role George Washington played in making Thanksgiving a part of our national heritage and Melanie Kirkpatrick places Thanksgiving at the heart of the American experience.

Discover the forgotten origins of Thanksgiving during the American Revolution as Professor Nick Giordano reveals how George Washington and the Continental Congress used national days of thanksgiving to strengthen a struggling nation. Far from the modern holiday of feasts and football, Thanksgiving in the Revolution was an act of resilience, unity, and survival, declared in the darkest moments of war. It's easy to give thanks when everything is going well. It's much more difficult to be thankful in times of despair. This powerful episode uncovers the wartime proclamations after Saratoga, Washington's Valley Forge orders, and the first national Thanksgiving in 1789, connecting the Founders' belief in gratitude to the challenges America faces today. A perfect Thanksgiving listen for anyone who wants to understand the real story behind one of America's most enduring traditions. Episode Highlights How Washington and the Continental Congress created wartime Thanksgivings during the Revolution, including the 1777 proclamation following the victory at Saratoga The raw, vivid reality of Valley Forge and why Washington insisted on thanksgiving and prayer during the most desperate winter of the war How Washington's 1789 national proclamation shaped the American tradition of Thanksgiving and why its message still matters today  

In the United States, we celebrate a National Holiday known as Thanksgiving on Thursday. But I believe that every day should be a day of thanksgiving. 

In this episode you discover the meaning and surprising origin of the phrase, "Black Friday". You'll learn how merchants conspired to change it's negative original connotation to one they thought was far more positive. Did it work? References:"Why Is It Called Black Friday?". Britannica.com.

Thanksgiving doesn't get any respect, but we're looking to change that. The beleaguered middle child of the holiday season, Thanksgiving is often overlooked. Yet so many elements of Thanksgiving (gathering with family, romanticizing our past traditions, and reckless binge-eating, among others) seem to make it the perfect holiday for a dad and for country music. We explore why Thanksgiving doesn't get its due and we take our best shot at creating a Country Music Thanksgiving Playlist.0:01 - The introduction: Why do we, in the country music and dad community, not elevate Thanksgiving to its rightful place as the American Holiday? 2:33 - A Bit of History about Thanksgiving and how it became today's National Holiday. Please note that Donnie had a lot of trouble with the word “popularization.” 5:30 - What does Thanksgiving mean to the Dads? What must you have to eat in order for it to be “right?” And how does being an adult make a difference? Donnie also talks about when he was in shape and ran really fast during a Turkey Trot (Much like the misremembered history of the holiday, Donnie made up a bit of the story, but he did come in first place in the Clydesdale division one year).13:16 - Deep-fried turkeys, roasting turkey and handling the bird like a chunky nine-month-old. Also, how do you pronounce “giblets?”16:30 - How do kids change your traditions? Establishing these rituals is very important, and with a bit of planning, you can do great things. But there is more that gets done, and less pure enjoyment and celebration. 19:08 - The great joy of being a parent comes from hard work, and what Donnie says to people who are considering having kids. 21:21 - A Call to Dad Action: We should take Thanksgiving and make it THE American Dad Holiday. 22:30 - What must be on your Thanksgiving table?26:20 - Donnie and Dave discuss why we think Thanksgiving doesn't get the respect it deserves. And like the Father of our Nation, George Washington, the Country Music Dads make a proclamation naming Thanksgiving the Dads' Holiday. 29:48 - Why are there no country music Thanksgiving songs? There are a few songs that work, and the Dads try to jam a square peg into a round hole. 40:51 - Green Bean Casserole is easy: Dads, you can up your game! Donnie outlines the entire process of making it—and it's super easy. 42:31 - Alice's Restaurant by Arlo Guthrie is a bonkers banana pants song, but it's a song about Thanksgiving. Sorta…44:00 Change My Mind: Donnie pretends to believe that turkey is overrated. And Dave changed my mind -- in the name of tradition. But everyone can agree that the next day sandwich is what Thanksgiving is really all about. Thank you for listening.

Welcome to the Christian's Hour Program, Thanks for joining us! TCH is a ministry of Gospel Broadcasting Mission. GBM's mission is to broadcast the message of Jesus, in their heart's language, to unreached people groups and tribes world-wide.This week we celebrate Thanksgiving, a National Holiday since 1863, that traces its origins to the Pilgrims in 1621. Thanksgiving's origins came out of a deep-rooted sense of gratitude to God. These days it almost seems the Holiday is tied more to family gatherings and meals, and giving thanks is secondary. Maybe it's time for a “course correction” to get back to our roots of giving thanks, to God?!This month, Bob Russell, is helping us with an “Thanksgiving Season - Heart Check” in preparation for a more meaningful Thanksgiving. Bob Russell is a retired senior minister of Southeast Christian Church in Louisville, Kentucky, where he served for 40 years as “Southeast” became one of the largest churches in America. There is an old proverb that says “you reap what you sow”. In today's message, “An Attitude of Gratitude” Bob has 5 ways we can sow an attitude that can help us transform our personalities into someone who radiates Thanksgiving.

Anna's guest has launched a petition calling for a once-off national holiday on March 27th, 2026: the day after Ireland's World Cup playoff semi-final. The aim is to give the whole country the chance to come together and support the team during what could be a rare and historic moment for Irish football…If Ireland reaches the final, the petition also calls for March 31st and April 1st to be declared once-off holidays too. Supporters are encouraged to sign - and remember to verify their signature so it counts.Brion Kennedy, Irish Football Fan and Petition Founder and Daniel Hussey, Freelance Sports Journalist.

This is the Christian's Hour. TCH is a ministry of Gospel Broadcasting Mission.So, Thanksgiving. While it officially became a National Holiday in 1863 it is said it traces its origins to 1621 or even earlier. I would imagine that no matter when it was first celebrated; it came out of a deep-rooted sense of gratitude that was more than a one day or one meal sort of thing. Today, sometimes it seems the Holiday is tied more to family gatherings and meals. Maybe it's time for a “course correction” to get back to our roots of giving thanks to; God?!This month, our speaker, Bob Russell, is helping us with an “Thanksgiving Season - Heart Check” to help us prepare for a more meaningful Thanksgiving. Bob Russell is a retired senior minister of Southeast Christian Church in Louisville, Kentucky, where he served for 40 years as “Southeast” became one of the largest churches in America. As a country, America has much to be thankful for, but as a whole we don't show it much. In the Bible, God's people, the Israelites, shared a similar affliction. In today's message Bob draws on the experiences of God's Chosen People to help us with a Manna and Meat “course correction” in preparation for a day of thanks to the one to whom all thanks is due!

PREVIEW  HEADLINE Italy Restores National Holiday Honoring St. Francis; Celebrations Begin 2026 Amid Talk of Giotto's Restored Assisi Frescoes GUEST NAME Lorenzo Fiori 50 WORD SUMMARY Italy's legislature restored the national holiday honoring St. Francis, patron saint of Italy, starting October 4, 2026.

You can't let time erase history, because without knowing where we're going we're just a spec in time.  You're just a piece of starstuff if you don't have a vector - got to know where we've been.  9/11 was one of those points in time that everyone has/knows/remembers, and without that memory (and comprehension), so much of what is afoot now (from warfighters and conflicts in the Middle East to Big Gov't miseries and threats aplenty) makes no sense.  Get a grip, people, and help those who've not come to understand what 9/11 means grasp its consequence - and the loss of it all. Join the Garage Hour in a little bit of remembrance this 9/11: thank a veteran, pat someone in law enforcement on the back (not by surprise, though), and pour one out for those who aren't with us anymore.  While we're at it, how about some Megadeth - this may be a somber day, but a little thrash metal makes everyone feel better.

In what may be the kiss-up of all kiss-ups, a Republican lawmaker is trying to make Trump's birthday a national holiday. It's on June 14th, already designated as Flag Day in the U.S. so Congresswoman Claudia Tenney, of New York,  introduced “Trump's Birthday and Flag Day Holiday Establishment Act.”  It would “permanently codify” June 14th as a federal holiday called “Trump's Birthday and Flag Day.” Pulizer Prize winning author and investigative reporter David Cay Johnston will stop by to talk politics. We'll check in with Dr. Michael Daignault about escalating cases of the flu and measles. The Mark Thompson Show 2/18/25Patreon subscribers are the backbone of the show!

On today's episode, the boys accomplish several milestones that have never occurred on the show before. I won't spoil them for you, but I will give hints. On Today is the Greatest, CJ proposes a new national holiday for bringing Super Bowl party leftovers to work. Spenny gets to work assembling a submission for an official new holiday. Madeline from Austin Monthly magazine stops by the show to discuss their annual singles' party. CJ explores his sordid past and how he ended up in the magazine himself. And has Madeline ever attended one of these events herself???? FIND OUT. LISTEN. Oh, and CJ finds a list of most expensive LEGO figures and kits. Apparently he owns some of them. Not sure why you'd announce that to the world, but okay. Let's rob him (let's please not do that)! Support the show: https://www.101x.com/cjSee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

In this week's "New Normal" conversation, Coach Kevin Smith is joined by Gloucester City, NJ councilman Ed Cilurso to discuss the social and economic implications of the Super Bowl, and whether the country should treat the game like a holiday.

St. Patrick might be the most famous of the Irish saints...but he's far from the most interesting.In 2023, St. Brigid's Day was decreed a National Holiday in Ireland to honor Brigid. Over the millennia, this legendary woman has evolved into a figure encompassing myth, holy legend, pagan icon, and now modern feminist symbol.But who was Brigid, really? To answer that question, travel writer Nicola Brady set off around Ireland to see how she's celebrated, and she found that there's not one simple answer. Because, as with everything in Ireland, you never know quite what's around the corner.Listen for a story that takes you into forests and through time, from the windswept hills of Downpatrick to ancient cathedrals of Kildare. And you just might encounter some fire dancers, divine poetry, and even a miniature Batman on a bicycle...Thank you to everyone who featured in this episode: Judith Boyle from Boyle's Pub  Phil O'Shea from Solas Bhríde Tom McCutcheon from the Kildare Heritage Center Musicians Lisa Lambe and Moya Brennan Brigid Watson from Sustainable Journeys Ireland And poets Laura Murphy and Grainne Tobin.

Newt's talks with Melanie Kirkpatrick, author of “Thanksgiving: The Holiday at the Heart of the American Experience” and they discuss the history of Thanksgiving as a national holiday in the United States. Kirkpatrick highlights the pivotal role of Sarah Josepha Hale, an influential author and editor, who campaigned for nearly two decades to establish Thanksgiving as a national holiday. Her efforts culminated in President Abraham Lincoln's 1863 proclamation, which set the last Thursday in November as a day for national thanksgiving. Kirkpatrick describes Hale's significant contributions to American culture, including her advocacy for women's education and employment, her influence through Godey's Lady's Book and her personal resilience, literary achievements, and lasting impact on American traditions and holidays.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
