QUEENS OF BRITAIN: CARTIMANDUA AND BOUDICCA Colleague Emma Southon. This segment contrasts two British queens: Cartimandua and Boudicca. Cartimandua, queen of the Brigantes, collaborates successfully with Rome, understanding they are "not to be defeated, they're to be pleased." Conversely, Boudicca represents resistance; provoked by Roman mistreatment, she leads a rebellion but is defeated. While Tacitus claims Boudicca committed suicide to preserve honor, English schools celebrate her as a symbol of resistance against tyranny. NUMBER 14

This is your All Local morning update for December 27, 2025.

This is the evening All Local for December 27th, 2025.

When you think of hibernators, you may think of the typical examples: bears, groundhogs, and bats. It's not as well-known that queen bumble bees exert a process similar to these hibernators as well! These queens are absolutely essential for the continuation of the colony. Each winter, the new queen will find a spot for shelter to escape the harsh, cold, and nutrient-deficient environment. These spots could be piles of leaf litter, under bushes, or in old burrows.

The New Yorker described Savage as, "a marvellous storyteller, a quirky thinker, and an incorrigible free-associator. He sometimes sounds less like a political commentator than like the star of a riveting and unusually vivid one-man play." Listen to these beloved tales from the master storyteller on this extraordinary episode. He reminisces on his tough teachers, life for the working class in Queens, the tight-knit communities of yesteryear, and the human condition. First, listen about the no-nonsense Irish Geometry teacher who would be fired in today's woke schools; his father's friend who moved into middle class only to suffer a sad fate; Louie who taught him to straighten nails with his own hands; the tale of The Jar, and many more. He explores the unpredictable nature of life as the year draws to a close. Please share this remarkable episode with your friends and loved ones!

This week, the Queens are in the Christmas spirit with Coca Cola's limited edition Holiday Creamy Vanilla Coke. Will this flavor be a new favorite, or will it end up on the naughty list?

348: Holiday Rewind: 4 Ways to Advance Your Nonprofit LeadershipWhat are you doing - intentionally - to move closer to your nonprofit leadership goals?In this Holiday Rewind of solo episode #159, Patton revisits four practical, evergreen ways nonprofit leaders can reflect, refocus, and move forward in their leadership journey. Whether you're early in your career, preparing for your next step, or refining your impact as a senior leader, these four elements provide a simple framework for year-end reflection and year-ahead momentum.Special thanks to our friends from TowneBank and Armstrong McGuire for supporting this podcast on its way to 350 Episodes next month!The Four Elements1. Sharpen Your Vision Framework. Clarity fuels progress. Revisit where you want to be in three to five years and define the kind of leader you want to become, not just the title you want to hold. A clear vision helps you evaluate opportunities, say no with confidence, and align daily work with long-term goals.2. Practice Self-Assessment. Growth starts with honest reflection. Regularly assess your strengths, skill gaps, leadership style, and readiness for greater responsibility. Seek feedback, reflect on recent experiences, and use that insight to guide your development priorities.  There were 10 Skills back in Episode #159, but the Mastermind Program now features 12!3. Utilize Strategic Networking. Relationships don't happen by accident. Be intentional about building a diverse network of peers, mentors, and sponsors who can challenge your thinking, open doors, and support your growth. Strategic networking is about mutual value, not transactions.4. Curate Knowledge. You don't need to know everything, but you do need to keep learning. Be selective about the books, podcasts, conferences, and conversations that shape your thinking. Curated learning keeps you relevant, reflective, and ready for what's next.About PattonPatton McDowell is a nonprofit leadership coach, consultant, author, and podcast host with more than 30 years of experience helping leaders and organizations thrive.

In this episode of History's Mysteries, we're diving into one of the bloodiest and most debated events in early modern Europe: the St. Bartholomew's Day Massacre. Thousands of French Protestants were brutally murdered in August 1572, after what was supposed to be a royal wedding that symbolized peace. Historians have argued for centuries about who was responsible — and today, we're asking the big question: Did Catherine de Medici order it? This episode blends historical analysis, feminist storytelling, and intuitive tarot reading to look at Catherine de Medici not as a caricature, but as a complex political operator navigating power, survival, and legacy in a brutal era.

Creativity through the lens of a visibility coach and podcast host,"I equate creativity to life energy."Anna Holtzman is a therapist-turned-visibility coach who helps sensitive creatives, healers, and entrepreneurs overcome the fear of being seen so they can share their voice and sustain their creative work—without burning out.Before coaching, Anna spent 15 years behind the scenes in publishing and reality TV editing, where she learned firsthand how easy it is to hide from visibility and how painful it feels when creative momentum fizzles. Chronic migraines and burnout eventually led her to mind-body medicine and the nervous system tools that helped her reclaim her own creative voice and start showing up consistently.Today, Anna draws on her background in both media and mental health to guide others through visibility wounds, imposter syndrome, and the nervous system blocks that keep them stuck. She is also the host of the podcast How to Trust Yourself, where she shares stories and tools for nervous-system-safe visibility. Anna lives in Queens, NY with her husband, stepdaughter, and three orange cats.www.annaholtzman.comSend us a text

In this episode of Lisa's Corner, we take the mind body spirit makeover even deeper and shift the focus from what we eat to how we eat. If you have ever stood in front of the fridge inhaling leftovers or eaten fries in the car before the bag hits the seat, this one will feel close to home.Using the unforgettable seagull versus queen analogy, we explore scarcity eating, emotional wiring, childhood food trauma, binge patterns, and why our nervous system is the real driver behind frantic eating. We talk about safety, abundance, and the power of shifting your energy before a single bite.Lisa also shares the tool that helped her transform panic into calm, not just with food but with trauma, driving, and everyday overwhelm. From tapping to manifestation to the neuroscience of the RAS, this episode is a roadmap for anyone who wants to stop panic eating and start ruling their plate with peace and intention.

New York City artists say they are pulling back from work centered on race, immigration, and gender identity after federal arts funding was rolled back. Meanwhile, the Port Authority is bracing for a busy holiday travel period with millions expected to pass through regional airports and crossings. Also, in Westchester County, prosecutors say officers seen beating and tasing a Peekskill man will not face criminal charges. Plus, a City Council investigation finds public bathrooms across the five boroughs are often dirty, closed, or missing basic amenities. Finally, as the MTA prepares to stop selling MetroCards, some elderly New Yorkers say the transition to OMNY is leaving them behind.

In this high-energy segment, Marc "Moose" Malusis dives into the swirling rumors of discontent within the New York Mets' clubhouse. Following a disappointing season, Malusis breaks down the friction between high-priced stars, the frustration of "has-been" acquisitions, and the leadership vacuum under manager Carlos Mendoza. From Juan Soto's massive contract tension to the perceived rift between cornerstone players like Francisco Lindor and Pete Alonso, Moose challenges the idea that "losing creates chemistry." He offers a blunt assessment of whether the issues stem from Mendoza's lack of control or a roster that has simply run its course. It's a raw look at why the wealthiest team in baseball couldn't find its soul in 2025.

In this high-energy segment, Marc "Moose" Malusis tackles a wave of frustrated Mets callers who are skeptical of David Stearns' latest roster overhaul—specifically the acquisition of veteran second baseman Marcus Semien. While fans point to Semien's age and recent batting average dip, Moose urges the "Orange and Blue" faithful to look at the bigger picture. He challenges the notion that the previous core (Alonso, McNeil, Nimmo) was "getting it done," reminding listeners that "the painting is not finished yet." From debating Semien's Gold Glove defense to calling out the "leaky ship" culture in the front office, Malusis delivers a passionate defense of a front office trying to break the cycle of insanity in Queens.

After becoming established in the Southeast Asian market, Chinese new-style tea brands are now turning to dig gold in the United States, looking for new opportunities.在东南亚市场站稳脚跟后，中国新式茶饮品牌正将目光投向美国市场，寻求新的发展机遇。Mixue Group opened its firstbrick-and-mortar store in the US on Saturday, marking its entry into the North American market. The store was opened in Hollywood, directly opposite the iconic TCL Chinese Theatre on the Hollywood Walk of Fame in Los Angeles, California.蜜雪集团于周六在美国开设首家实体门店，标志着其正式进军北美市场。该门店落户好莱坞，正对加利福尼亚州洛杉矶好莱坞星光大道上的标志性建筑TCL中国剧院。New-style tea refers to freshly prepared, healthier versions of milk tea and fruit tea.新式茶饮指的是现制现卖、更健康的奶茶和果茶。The opening of new-style tea brand stores in the US has been gaining momentum this year.今年，新式茶饮品牌在美国开设门店的势头日益强劲。On Aug 1, Heytea opened a store in Cupertino in northern California. So far, Heytea, the first Chinese new-style tea brand to explore the US market, operates 35 stores in the US, according to research institute Hongcan. This makes it the brand with the most US stores among Chinese new-style tea brands. One year ago, it had just two stores in the US, which demonstrates its rapid expansion.8月1日，喜茶在北加州库比蒂诺市开设新店。据红磡咨询数据显示，作为首个进军美国市场的中国新式茶饮品牌，喜茶目前在美国运营着35家门店，成为中国新式茶饮品牌在美国门店数量最多的品牌。一年前，喜茶在美国仅有两家门店，其扩张速度之快可见一斑。Meanwhile, Molly Tea has opened five stores in the US, while Chagee, as China's first new-style tea brand to be listed in the US, opened an outlet in the Westfield Century City mall in Los Angeles. Less than three months later, another outlet was opened in the metropolitan Los Angeles area.与此同时，茉莉奶白已在美国开设五家门店，而作为中国首个登陆美国的新式茶饮品牌，霸王茶姬在洛杉矶西田世纪城购物中心开设了首家门店。不到三个月后，该品牌又在洛杉矶大都会区开设了第二家门店。In July, Lelecha opened stores in New York and Los Angeles, continuing its business model of selling both tea and baked goods.七月，乐乐茶在纽约和洛杉矶开设门店，延续其茶饮与烘焙食品并售的经营模式。The market is responding positively.市场反应积极。For example, Heytea's outlet in Times Square in New York, which was opened at the beginning of this year, sold more than 3,500 cups of tea on the first day, and its average daily sales volume exceeded 2,000 cups, according to company data.例如，根据喜茶公司数据，今年初在纽约时代广场开业的喜茶门店开业首日就售出超过3500杯茶饮，其日均销量超过2000杯。Molly Tea's outlets are also breaking records. According to the company, the sales revenue of its outlet in New York in October 2024 surpassed $570,000, a record for Chinese new-style tea brands. The gross merchandise value of its first outlet in Los Angeles surpassed 4.19 million yuan ($595,000) in its first month, setting an overseas store record for the company.茉莉奶白的门店业绩同样屡创新高。据该公司透露，其纽约门店2024年10月销售额突破57万美元，创下中国新式茶饮品牌纪录。其首家洛杉矶门店开业首月商品交易总额突破419万元人民币（约合59.5万美元），刷新了该品牌海外门店业绩纪录。Chagee and Auntea Jenny have also proved popular in the US. On the day that Chagee opened its store in the US, it sold over 5,000 cups of tea. From May 16-18, Auntea Jenny's first store in the US, located in the Flushing neighborhood of the New York City borough of Queens, recorded 3,024 orders and achieved gross merchandise value of $65,000.霸王茶姬与沪上阿姨在美国同样广受欢迎。霸王茶姬在美国开业首日售出逾5000杯茶饮。5月16日至18日，位于纽约皇后区法拉盛社区的沪上阿姨首家美国门店共计完成3024笔订单，商品总价值达6.5万美元。Facing an increasing number of Chinese new-style tea brands in the US, Jason Smith, a US netizen, said on social media platform X that he hoped American companies "are ready for some real competition".面对美国市场上日益增多的中国新式茶饮品牌，美国网友杰森·史密斯（Jason Smith）在社交平台X上发文称，希望美国企业“做好迎接真正竞争的准备”。Wang Peng, an associate research fellow at the Beijing Academy of Social Sciences, said, "With the Southeast Asian market tending to be saturated, the US, with its large consumption power base, high per customer transaction rate and demand for consumption upgrade, has become a new hot spot for Chinese new-style tea brands."北京社会科学院副研究员王鹏表示：“随着东南亚市场趋于饱和，美国凭借其庞大的消费群体、高人均消费额以及消费升级需求，已成为中国新式茶饮品牌的新热点。”Zhan Junhao, founder of Fujian Huace Brand Positioning Consulting, said: "New-style tea brands opening stores in the US is an inevitable trend, as they compete fiercely in (China's) domestic market and look forincremental markets. Each brand adopts a differentiated positioning layout to adapt to the market, avoidinghomogeneous competition.福建华策品牌定位咨询创始人詹军豪表示：“新式茶饮品牌进军美国市场是必然趋势，因其在（中国）国内市场竞争激烈，需寻求增量市场。各品牌采取差异化定位布局适应市场，避免同质化竞争。”"The new-style tea market in the US is growing rapidly, and there is no dominant brand, offering a window of opportunity for Chinese brands to seize market share," Zhan said, adding that the market potential will likely attract more brands.詹军豪表示：“美国新式茶饮市场正快速扩张，目前尚未出现主导品牌，这为中国品牌抢占市场份额提供了机遇窗口。”并补充道，该市场潜力或将吸引更多品牌入局。Zhan noted that as promising as the market is, Chinese brands still face challenges when opening stores in the US. For example, high costs of staffing and rent squeeze profits, and there are cultural differences.詹军豪指出，尽管市场前景广阔，中国品牌在美国开设门店仍面临诸多挑战。例如，高昂的人力成本和租金挤压利润空间，同时还存在文化差异。Wang, the researcher, said that the brands need to adopt a long-term strategy, building core competitiveness through precise positioning, deep localization and supply chain resilience.研究员王鹏表示，品牌需要采取长期战略，通过精准定位、深度本土化及供应链韧性来构建核心竞争力。brick-and-mortar storeadj./ˌbrɪk.ənˈmɔːr.tɚ/实体门店incremental marketadj./ˌɪŋ.krəˈmen.t̬əl/增量市场homogeneousadj./ˌhoʊ.moʊˈdʒiː.ni.əs/同质化

Jordan deserved two nominations, and spiral joyfully through what we're watching, reading, and loving right now. Pop culture, chaos, and coping — just another Kiki.

New Yorkers have gotten around their cities by subways, buses, elevated trains, streetcars and ferries. And the ways in which they have paid for them have changed as well. And keeps changing!This month, the city is saying farewell to the MetroCard, the magnetic-stripe card that has gotten the town moving since the early 1990s. When the orange cards debuted, they replaced the strange physical tokens commuters had been using since 1953.Mass transit fares were also a key issue in the past New York mayoral race — and they've always been a key issue for voters since the late 19th century. That's part of the reason that fares famously remained five cents for decades. But as the subway system expanded, stretching through Brooklyn, Queens, and the Bronx, it soon became evident that it was becoming too expensive to operate.But changing the price is one thing; going from currency to token to MetroCard to OMNI (our latest method) requires technical modifications of every station in the system. In 1953, that entire system changed — literally overnight — to accommodate the first tokens.Jodi Shapiro of the New York Transit Museum joins the podcast to discuss the museum's latest exhibition, FAREwell MetroCard, which celebrates the newly retired fare system.This episode was edited and produced by Kieran Gannon Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.

Lara and Carey discuss pop star Bebe Rexha outsourcing fans for help on locking down a baby daddy, then head back to Greece for another chapter in RHOSLC.After their first boozy dinner in Santorini, the ladies wake up to a child-free Mother's Day, to the joy of most but the heartbreak of Meredith. Angie splits the group up for the day's activities: a Greek cooking class and donkey rides to the various vistas. Meredith — still reeling from her ongoing battle with Whitney and now Heather — laments a phone call with Brooks cut short by her cast mates, leading to her abandoning her culinary comrades for a bona fide walkabout around the island in a pair of heels. After a positively transatlantic confrontation upon her return, Meredith agrees to call a truce with the cousins and opt for poolside fun with her newly adopted personality. But the peace in the group is brief, as Angie launches into a full attack on Britani — her peacock feathers ruffled by Britani's reveal of a certain patent she recently filed.Chapters:00:00:00 Kaliméra!
