The Padres didn't make many moves during the Winter Meetings, but they did make tons of noise. Is A.J. Preller cooking up another blockbuster deal? What players would even be involved to make such a thing possible? Should Fernando Tatis Jr. be untouchable? Is Mason Miller on the block? And would that just be a way to get out of a bad contract? The Padres don't plan on moving a top reliever to the rotation, but might they move some to fill needs? The Mets had a rough week, could they look to San Diego for some star power? Suddenly there are some very interesting possibilities - the guys discuss on the 400th episode of On Friar!

A grand jury is actively hearing evidence in the death of 14-year-old Celeste Rivas Hernandez — and what's coming out of that Los Angeles courthouse is raising serious questions about who knew what and when. Robert Morgenroth, the head of D4vd's record label Mogul Vision and president of his touring company, reportedly testified for three days. He was overheard telling his attorney that prosecutors grilled him on why he didn't call police — and his response was that he "didn't feel it was his responsibility" and "just wanted to continue with the tour."  Now a female witness is facing arrest after refusing to appear, with Deputy D.A. Beth Silverman seeking a body attachment to compel her testimony. She shares an attorney with Morgenroth. D4vd remains a suspect in the eyes of LAPD's Robbery-Homicide Division. Investigators reportedly have tracking data placing him in a remote area of Santa Barbara County in the middle of the night during Spring 2025 — the window when Celeste is believed to have died. A second suspect has been identified who allegedly helped with the dismemberment. Celeste's remains were found in D4vd's abandoned Tesla on September 8, 2025. No cause of death has been determined. The pressure is mounting — and the inner circle is cracking. ⚠️ LEGAL NOTICE: D4vd has not been arrested or charged with any crime. He is presumed innocent unless proven guilty in a court of law. All information sourced from law enforcement officials speaking to NBC, ABC, TMZ, and other media outlets.

"It's recommended that everyone over the age of 40 go see their eye doctor once a year." -Dr. Rudrani Banik   Dr. Rudrani "Rani" Banik is a renowned board-certified neuro-ophthalmologist and an integrative medicine specialist based in New York City. She holds the position of Associate Professor of Ophthalmology at Mount Sinai and has an impressive educational background, including an MD from Brown University, a residency at UC Irvine, and a fellowship at the Wilmer Eye Institute at Johns Hopkins. Dr. Banik adopts a holistic approach to eye health, focusing on nutrition, lifestyle, and supplementation. She is also a prolific author and media expert, featured on platforms like Good Morning America, NBC, and The New York Times. Episode Summary: Join host Jana Short in an engaging conversation with Dr. Rudrani "Rani" Banik, renowned neuro-ophthalmologist and integrative medicine specialist, as they delve into the intricacies of eye health and holistic wellness. In this enlightening episode, Dr. Banik shares her personal journey with chronic daily migraines, which led her to discover the powerful potential of lifestyle and dietary changes in managing health conditions. With a foundation in conventional medicine, she transitioned to a more integrative approach, emphasizing the importance of diet, stress management, and functional medicine in overall well-being.   Throughout the episode, Dr. Banik discusses her innovative work in eye health, emphasizing the role of nutrition and supplements in maintaining optimal vision. She elaborates on the extensive array of nutrients, beyond the well-known carrots, that contribute to eye health, such as lutein and zeaxanthin. Her insights extend to the necessity of regular eye examinations and lifestyle adjustments to protect and preserve ocular health. Dr. Banik also introduces her supplement line, Ageless by Dr. Rani, and her book, "Beyond Carrots," showcasing her dedication to educating others on the significance of holistic eye care.   Key Takeaways: Dr. Rani Banik's journey with chronic migraines led her to embrace integrative medicine, highlighting the impact of diet and lifestyle on health management. Regular eye checkups are crucial, as the eyes can reveal early signs of over 200 medical conditions. Beyond carrots, nutrients like lutein, zeaxanthin, and meso-zeaxanthin are vital for eye health, acting as internal sunglasses and blue blockers. Incorporating diverse foods, such as leafy greens, bell peppers, and spices, can significantly reduce the risk of eye diseases. Supplements should complement a healthy diet, filling in nutritional gaps due to factors like dietary absorption or soil nutrient depletion.   Resources: www.drranibanik.com https://www.facebook.com/rudrani.banik.2025/ @‌dr.ranibanik https://x.com/RudraniBanikMD     ✨ Enjoying the show?

This week we break down the Netflix–Warner Bros situation and the wild overreactions swirling around AEW. Netflix is bidding for the studio side — not the networks that house TBS and TNT — and AEW's deal remains locked in through 2027 with an option for 2028. Tony Khan addressed everything on the Final Battle call, reiterated AEW's strong relationship with WBD, and reminded everyone he already works with Netflix, Paramount and Comcast through the NFL. The only real unknown is how Max simulcasts evolve after the corporate shuffle. We also hit WWE's emotional centerpiece: John Cena's final match, locked for December 13 on a retro-styled NBC primetime special. Gunther earned the spot, the legal noise is swirling, and Cena is openly confronting the realities of age, legacy and family as he closes the book. On the TNA front, the AMC move resets the entire company. Final Resolution felt like the final page of the AXS era before a massive 2026 pivot. A wild card of debuts, title chaos, crossover moments and a dramatic closing angle set the tone for what this next era will look like. ROH Final Battle delivered the usual in-ring consistency while its future waits for the right TV deal — something Tony Khan emphasized he's in no rush to compromise on. NXT Deadline fallout is coming, with the brand navigating crossover talent, shifting title pictures and a marquee NXT Championship outcome that now points toward a major showdown on NBC. We'll go match by match next episode and look at who steps into Cody's orbit as the road to the new year takes shape. AEW's Continental Classic continued with injuries reshaping the Gold League and both blocks tightening at the top. Holiday Bash sets up a new Dynamite Diamond path, and the next few weeks will determine the world title picture heading into 2026. We also talk PPV pacing, retirement teases, big men looking for one more run, and WWE's internal pressure as the new PLE deal shifts expectations. The week ahead is stacked across every promotion — major specials, tournament twists, international cards, big-brand build toward January, and the first real momentum toward WrestleMania season. This is Episode 154 of Wrestling Tonight — let's get into it.

1) Media vs. Military: Narco‑Boat Strikes Central assertion: Media outlets (especially The Washington Post) allegedly “slandered” the military with false reporting about a U.S. strike on a Venezuelan drug boat; Senator Tom Cotton is quoted saying everyone on the boat was a “valid target” based on intelligence. Details cited: References to NBC’s question about orders by Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth to target all individuals on the boat; Cotton responds that the operation aimed to destroy drug boats and that intelligence gave “high confidence” all aboard were traffickers. Discussion of the Law of War Manual and whether firing on “shipwrecked” persons would be illegal; the host’s questions are framed as attempts to undermine the military. Broader framing: The piece compares this episode to past controversies (e.g., the “Russia dossier”), alleging coordinated efforts by Democrats and media to undermine or criminalize Trump officials and intimidate service members. 2) Voter Rolls & Election Integrity Core allegation: The Assistant Attorney General Harmeet Dhillon (spelled “Harmei Dylon” in the text) purportedly announced DOJ findings of 260,000+ deceased individuals on voter rolls and thousands of registered non‑citizens; DOJ has sued multiple states to obtain voter list data. States mentioned: Lawsuits or actions described against Delaware, Maryland, New Mexico, Rhode Island, Vermont, Washington, and large cleanup activity in North Carolina (over 100,000 registrations) Author’s stance: Argues for voter ID, claims Democrats oppose roll cleanup for political advantage, and quotes Trump asserting elections are “crooked and rigged.” Please Hit Subscribe to this podcast Right Now.

We look at its wide-ranging pleiotropic effects on metabolic health, mood, sleep, the brain, gut, and immunity, as well as the signs of low C15:0 levels and the specific labs that can identify a deficiency. We also talk about the benefits of supplementation and improved bioavailability.  Since I have been taking C15:0 myself over the last four to five months and noticed improvements in my recovery and sleep, I'm excited to share this informative and helpful conversation, humbly dedicated to the essential saturated fatty acid, C15:0.

Susan Guthrie welcomes two extraordinary guests whose combined perspectives offer something rarely seen in the world of divorce. Bill Eddy, LCSW, Esq., returns to the show alongside author Matthew A. Tower, whose new book Love Wars: Clash of the Parents gives listeners an unprecedented inside look at what high-conflict divorce feels like through the eyes of a child. Together, their insights reveal the emotional reality children carry, the predictable patterns behind high-conflict behaviors, and the steps parents can take to protect their kids from the fallout. Love Wars follows Matthew's journey from ages six to eleven as he navigated two volatile households, emotional unpredictability, parentification, negative advocates, and the relentless pressure to choose sides. His story is raw, illuminating, and at times difficult to hear, yet it is also deeply important. Bill helps contextualize Matthew's lived experience through High Conflict Personality Theory and offers guidance parents and professionals can use immediately. This conversation is a powerful companion to Bill's book Splitting and the perfect next step for anyone committed to changing the emotional climate for their children. Why This Conversation Matters High-conflict divorce leaves a lasting imprint on children, but the full internal experience is almost never visible to parents, courts, or professionals. Matthew's story pulls back the curtain on what children absorb, what they fear, how they cope, and why the conflict shapes them long after the legal case is over. Bill explains how splitting, emotional volatility, and personality-driven dynamics create confusion, fear, and reactivity for children who do not yet have the capacity to regulate intense emotions. He also highlights why professionals often miss what is really happening, and how parents can change the trajectory by lowering conflict, creating predictability, and becoming the steady emotional anchor their children desperately need. Together, Bill and Matthew offer clarity, compassion, and a path forward for families caught in high-conflict cycles. In this episode, you will learn: What children internalize during high-conflict divorce and why they absorb the emotional intensity around them Why parentification is so damaging and how children become emotional caregivers when adults are dysregulated How high-conflict parents recruit negative advocates and why these dynamics intensify the conflict Why kids shut down, freeze, or dissociate when the emotional environment becomes overwhelming How calm, consistent adults like Matthew's stepmother Holly can become a lifeline What courts and professionals often overlook when evaluating children's preferences or resistance What parents can do right now to lower reactivity, reduce conflict, and create safety for their children About the Guests:  Bill Eddy, LCSW, Esq. - Bill Eddy is a lawyer, therapist, mediator, best-selling author, co-founder, and Chief Innovation Officer of the High Conflict Institute.

Wyatt MichaelTake a walk with me down Fascination Street as I get to know Wyatt Michael. My wife and I saw Wyatt perform live at a jazz club in San Antonio and I just had to get him on the show. In this episode, we get to know about Wyatt's early years singing in a rock band, and how he discovered jazz and the American Standards. He lets me play one of his songs from that rock band so we can get an idea of what he USED to sound like. Then we dive into his love affair with the Frank Sinatra, Dean Martin, Michael Buble style of music. He shares funny stories about some of his first live gigs in this new style, as well as 'The Curse of the First Dance'. Next, we get into his time on the NBC reality competition show The Voice. Wyatt explains how he came to be part of the show, what his experience was like, and some behind the scenes tidbits. Naturally, I ask if I can play a song that he wrote and performed in this crooning style, that I just adore. of course, we cover his recent move to Las Vegas, and where he can be found belting out the great American Songbook.

We kick off a two-part series spotlighting The New Adventures of Nero Wolfe in celebration of two December birthdays - Rex Stout, the creator of the gargantuan gourmet, and Sydney Greenstreet, the Oscar-nominated actor who brought the sleuth to radio life. The show ran for just one season but six different actors played Wolfe's loyal assistant Archie Goodwin in those 26 episodes. The series and its star could never settle on a supporting actor, but the unusual revolving door allowed some of radio's best performers to take a stab at the character. We'll hear the first three Messrs Goodwin - Wally Maher in "Stamped for Murder" (originally aired on NBC on October 20, 1950); Lamont Johnson in "The Case of the Careworn Cuff" (originally aired on NBC on October 27, 1950); and Herb Ellis in "The Case of the Dear Dead Lady" (originally aired on NBC on November 3, 1950).

Despite the shocking voicemail that surfaced earlier this week from Kelly Dodd attacking daughter Jolie, Miss Vicki Gunvalson is out in these streets asking for Ms. Dodd's return to RHOC. Heather Dubrow says that's a wrap and that she looks forward to Season 20, but Tamra remains very confused about many things surrounding Season 19 and we cannot say we blame her.  Regardless of the reconciliation heard round the world, Teresa still has one major hurdle to overcome if she wants to ever return to RHONJ… Luis Ruelas. Last, but not least, rumors and nastiness surface yet again that NBC is over all the lawsuits, liabilities and cost and wants to end all Housewives soon.

Whistleblower Allegations Over 400 employees from the Minnesota Department of Health and Human Services claim they warned Governor Walz about the fraud early but faced retaliation instead of cooperation. Allegations include monitoring, threats, and discrediting of fraud reports. Nature of the Fraud Fraud reportedly involved members of the Somali diaspora misappropriating millions from Medicaid autism programs. Funds allegedly sent overseas to terrorist organizations like Al-Shabaab. Nearly 100 autism clinics investigated for fraudulent billing. Political Dimension Walz ignored the issue for political gain, citing the Somali community’s voting power. Democrats were prioritizing votes over accountability. Media Criticism Mainstream media downplayed the scandal. NBC’s interview with Walz was “softball” at best, allowing him to deflect blame and attack Donald Trump. Governor’s Response Walz acknowledges responsibility for prosecuting offenders but rejects demonizing an entire community. Minnesota’s prosperity and social programs were blaming federal cuts for oversight challenges. Please Hit Subscribe to this podcast Right Now.
