Whether you live with fibromyalgia, care for someone who does, or are a healthcare professional looking to better support patients, you'll find trusted, evidence-based insights here, drawn from my 29+ years as an MD.

In this conversation, Lantz Howard sits down with Mark Moore, pastor, teacher, and author of Core 52 , Quest 52, Wisdom 52, and more to explore why biblical wisdom isn't information to master—but formation to live into.Together, they unpack the difference between knowledge and wisdom, why so many leaders are spiritually informed yet inwardly exhausted, and how a slow, intentional engagement with Scripture can stabilize the soul in a distracted, accelerated world.Mark shares insights from decades of teaching and pastoring, emphasizing the power of weekly rhythms, long obedience, and letting God's Word shape not just beliefs—but desires, decisions, and leadership presence.This episode is a call back to depth over hustle, formation over performance, and wisdom that actually holds when life and leadership get heavy.Perfect for leaders, husbands, pastors, and high-capacity men who want more than quick inspiration—they want lives that are rooted, resilient, and whole.Coaching that aligns identity, marriage, and vocation for extraordinary success. www.lantzhoward.com

"יש חנות עתיקות קטנה ליד הסמטה שם. אולי נמצא בה משהו ייחודי?"En: @Maya@ thought for a moment. "There's a small antique shop near the alley there. Maybe we'll find something unique?"He: נואה חייכה במעט תקווה.En: @Noa@ smiled with a bit of hope.He: הם הלכו בעקבותיה של מאיה, ונכנסו לחנות קטנה ומוסתרת, עם דלת עץ ישנה שחרקה בכניסה.En: They followed @Maya@ and entered a small hidden shop, with an old wooden door that creaked upon entry.He: האור בחנות היה רך ושקט.En: The light in the shop was soft and quiet.He: המדפים היו מלאים חפצים ישנים ומעניינים.En: The shelves were filled with old and interesting objects.He: ריח של עץ ישן ותחושת חמימות מילאו את האוויר.En: The smell of old wood and a sense of warmth filled the air.He: נואה התקדמה לעבר המדפים, ובעודה מביטה, עיניה נמשכו לפריט מיוחד – חנוכייה מעוצבת בעבודת יד, עם פרטים יפיפיים שסיפרו סיפור של מסורת והיסטוריה.En: @Noa@ moved towards the shelves, and while looking, her eyes were drawn to a special item - a hand-crafted chanukiah with beautiful details that told a story of tradition and history.He: היא נשמה עמוק והרגישה שהיא מצאה בדיוק את מה שחיפשה.En: She took a deep breath and felt she had found exactly what she was looking for.He: "החנוכייה הזו," לחשה נואה בהתפעלות. "היא מושלמת."En: "This chanukiah," @Noa@ whispered in awe. "It's perfect."He: "זו חנוכייה ייחודית," אמרה המוכרת בהערכה. "היא נעשתה בהשראת מסורות יהודיות עתיקות."En: "It's a unique chanukiah," the seller said appreciatively. "It was inspired by ancient Jewish traditions."He: נואה הרגישה לבה מתמלא שמחה וביטחון.En: @Noa@ felt her heart fill with joy and confidence.He: היא ידעה שהחנוכייה הזו תעניק לה ולמשפחתה חוויית חג ייחודית.En: She knew this chanukiah would provide her family with a unique holiday experience.He: בערב, כשנואה חזרה הביתה עם מאיה ואיתן, משפחתה התכנסה סביב השולחן.En: In the evening, when @Noa@ returned home with @Maya@ and @Eitan@, her family gathered around the table.He: נואה הדליקה את הנרות בלב מלא גאווה ושמחה.En: @Noa@ lit the candles with a heart full of pride and joy.He: החום של האש והקת חשף את הרגשות האמיתיים של חג – תחושת חיבור ואהבה.En: The warmth of the fire and the moment revealed the true feelings of the holiday - a sense of connection and love.He: נואה למדה שחג הוא לא רק על אחרים; הוא גם על חיבור עצמי וגילוי השמחה האישית בתוכך.En: @Noa@ learned that a holiday is not just about others; it is also about self-connection and discovering personal joy within.He: חנוכה הזה ייזכר כאחד מהחגים המשמעותיים ביותר עבורה.En: This Chanukah would be remembered as one of the most significant holidays for her.He: החנוכייה לא הייתה רק סמל, אלא גם הזדמנות להתחבר מחדש לעצמה ולמשפחתה.En: The chanukiah was not just a symbol, but also an opportunity to reconnect with herself and her family.

On this episode of The Karen Kenney Show, I talk about a little poem that packs a big spiritual punch, “Autobiography in Five Short Chapters” by Portia Nelson.We discuss how the poem uses a simple but powerful analogy of “a sidewalk with a hole” and how it's a brilliant mirror for our own repetitive patterns, habits, and choices that often keep us stuck.I connect this to how A Course in Miracles talks about choosing between love and fear and how we often take “detours into fear"...And why real spiritual progress isn't about never visiting fear again, but about how quickly we recognize when we've left Love and then make a conscious choice to return to it.I also reflect on why change can be so hard – we're talking those old family patterns, the subconscious payoffs, and how we normalize our suffering.

Fluent Fiction - Norwegian: Chasing Aurora: A Wintry Quest for the Northern Lights Find the full episode transcript, vocabulary words, and more:fluentfiction.com/no/episode/2025-12-25-08-38-20-no Story Transcript:No: Tromsø var kledd i hvitt.En: Tromsø was dressed in white.No: Snøen dekket gatene som et mykt teppe, og en kald vind blåste gjennom byens smale gater.En: The snow covered the streets like a soft blanket, and a cold wind blew through the city's narrow streets.No: Det var rett før jul, og luften var fylt med duften av pepperkaker og varm gløgg som strømmet fra de koselige kafeene.En: It was just before Christmas, and the air was filled with the scent of gingerbread and hot mulled wine wafting from the cozy cafes.No: Ingrid, en ivrig astronom, var i Tromsø for sin store lidenskap: nordlyset.En: Ingrid, an eager astronomer, was in Tromsø for her great passion: the northern lights.No: Hun hadde en viktig oppgave foran seg, en forskningsprosjekt som trengte bilder av det dansende lyset på himmelen.En: She had an important task ahead, a research project that needed pictures of the dancing lights in the sky.No: Hun hadde fått med seg Lars, en venn og fotograf, som ikke var like overbevist om denne arktiske reisen.En: She had brought along Lars, a friend and photographer, who was not as convinced about this arctic journey.No: "Været er ustabilt," bemerket Lars skeptisk da de gikk langs havnen.En: "The weather is unstable," remarked Lars skeptically as they walked along the harbor.No: "Snøstormen kan skjule alt."En: "The snowstorm can hide everything."No: Ingrid smilte, hennes entusiasme ubegrenset.En: Ingrid smiled, her enthusiasm limitless.No: "Vi må være tålmodige, Lars. Været endrer seg raskt her oppe. Vi kommer til å se det."En: "We have to be patient, Lars. The weather changes quickly up here. We will see it."No: Selv om Lars tvilte, bestemte han seg for å bli.En: Even though Lars doubted, he decided to stay.No: Han så på den stjerneklare himmelen, delvis skjult av tunge snøskyer.En: He looked at the starry sky, partially hidden by heavy snow clouds.No: De satte opp et lite telt på en ås med utsikt over byen, varmt pakket inn i tykke klær og med kameraet klart.En: They set up a small tent on a hill overlooking the city, warmly wrapped in thick clothes and with the camera ready.No: Kvelden nærmet seg, og snøstormen kom.En: The evening approached, and the snowstorm came.No: Vindkastene var sterke, og snøen skapte en ugjennomtrengelig vegg.En: The gusts of wind were strong, and the snow created an impenetrable wall.No: Lars begynte å bli utålmodig og ville pakke sammen.En: Lars began to grow impatient and wanted to pack up.No: "Vi gir oss ikke nå. Hav tålmodighet," sa Ingrid bestemt og ga ham en varm kopp kakao.En: "We're not giving up now. Have patience," said Ingrid firmly, handing him a warm cup of cocoa.No: Tiden gikk sakte, men plutselig, like raskt som stormen kom, begynte skyene å lette.En: Time passed slowly, but suddenly, just as quickly as the storm had come, the clouds began to clear.No: Ingrid gispet, og Lars hevet brynene.En: Ingrid gasped, and Lars raised his eyebrows.No: Mot nord beveget de første strålene av aurora borealis seg over himmelen.En: To the north, the first rays of the aurora borealis moved across the sky.No: Grønt, lilla og rosa lys bølget over stjernene, som et magisk slør.En: Green, purple, and pink lights waved over the stars, like a magical veil.No: "Se, Lars!" Ingrid pekte opp, nesten glemt av kulden hun følte.En: "Look, Lars!" Ingrid pointed up, almost forgetting the cold she felt.No: Lars lente seg fremover, fengslet av synet.En: Lars leaned forward, captivated by the sight.No: Han hevet kameraet og begynte å ta bilder, trollbundet av det nye spektakelet foran ham.En: He raised the camera and began taking photos, enthralled by the new spectacle before him.No: Ingrid og Lars sto sammen, kameraet fanget det blendende nordlyset.En: Ingrid and Lars stood together, the camera capturing the dazzling northern lights.No: For hver eksponering ble sceneriet enda mer fantastisk enn det forrige.En: With each exposure, the scenery became even more fantastic than the last.No: Lars følte en uventet kribling av spenning.En: Lars felt an unexpected tingling of excitement.No: Han skjønte at han ble mer enn en fotograf; han var vitne til noe unikt og naturlig.En: He realized that he was more than a photographer; he was witnessing something unique and natural.No: Da lysene endelig falmet, smilte Lars til Ingrid, full av takknemlighet.En: When the lights finally faded, Lars smiled at Ingrid, full of gratitude.No: "Du hadde rett. Det var verdt det," sa han stille.En: "You were right. It was worth it," he said quietly.No: De dro tilbake til byen, arm i arm, begge med følelsen av en delt og dyrebar opplevelse.En: They returned to the city, arm in arm, both with the feeling of a shared and treasured experience.No: Ingrid hadde sin forskning, og Lars hadde sine bilder – og en ny forståelse og respekt for naturens uforutsigbare skjønnhet.En: Ingrid had her research, and Lars had his photos — and a new understanding and respect for nature's unpredictable beauty.No: I Tromsø, blant desemberkulden, hadde de funnet mer enn lyset; de hadde funnet et vennskap styrket av en felles drøm.En: In Tromsø, amidst the December cold, they had found more than the lights; they had found a friendship strengthened by a common dream.

Ad Astra Travelers, and welcome to Tales of Teyvat: A Genshin Lore Podcast. This week, our hosts are going back to 1.0 to discuss the Chi of Yore quest. Many travelers may only remember bits and pieces of this quest as they were button mashing their way through a mile long quest log while turning statues to face various directions. This quest follows Yan'er, one of Teyvat's biggest treasure hoarders, as she tries to bamboozle us, but we just bamboozle ourselves in return. Join our hosts for a walkthrough of the quest and the important lore entanglements that come with it. This quest adds additional lore to the original Dainsleif story quest, Baizhu's character story and points to possible dragon involvement in ancient Liyue.

Story Transcript:Nl: De eerste sneeuwvlokken vielen zachtjes uit de hemel, als kleine sterren die langzaam hun weg vonden naar de besneeuwde heuvel waar de oude ruïnes lagen.En: The first snowflakes fell gently from the sky, like little stars slowly finding their way to the snow-covered hill where the old ruins lay.Nl: Sanne keek naar boven en voelde een opwindende tinteling door haar lijf gaan.En: Sanne looked up and felt an exciting tingle run through her body.Nl: Dit was de dag.En: This was the day.Nl: Samen met haar assistent, Bram, en de lokale historica Maartje, zou ze de geheimen van de ruïnes onthullen.En: Together with her assistant, Bram, and the local historian Maartje, she would uncover the secrets of the ruins.Nl: "Ik denk dat we moeten wachten tot de storm voorbij is," zei Bram voorzichtig terwijl hij de lucht bestudeerde.En: "I think we should wait until the storm passes," Bram said cautiously as he studied the sky.Nl: Zijn bezorgdheid was voelbaar, zelfs onder zijn warme muts.En: His concern was palpable, even under his warm hat.Nl: Sanne zuchtte.En: Sanne sighed.Nl: Ze was niet geneigd om te wachten.En: She was not inclined to wait.Nl: De ruïnes waren oud, en haar tijd was beperkt.En: The ruins were old, and her time was limited.Nl: "De storm kan nog uren duren," zei ze vastberaden.En: "The storm could last for hours," she said resolutely.Nl: "En we zijn hier nu al zo dichtbij."En: "And we're already so close."Nl: Maartje keek zenuwachtig rond.En: Maartje looked around nervously.Nl: Ze kende de verhalen over de ruïnes beter dan wie dan ook.En: She knew the stories about the ruins better than anyone.Nl: Maar ze had haar twijfels of deze verhalen de werkelijkheid weerspiegelden.En: But she had her doubts about whether these stories reflected reality.Nl: "De oude mythen kunnen ons niet alles vertellen," waarschuwde ze.En: "The old myths can't tell us everything," she warned.Nl: "We moeten voorzichtig zijn."En: "We need to be careful."Nl: "Wat als we samen naar de ingang zoeken?"En: "What if we search for the entrance together?"Nl: stelde Sanne voor.En: Sanne suggested.Nl: "We volgen jouw kennis, Maartje.En: "We'll follow your knowledge, Maartje.Nl: Maar we zetten door tot we iets vinden, voordat de storm te sterk wordt."En: But we'll press on until we find something, before the storm becomes too strong."Nl: Na een moment van twijfel stemde Maartje in.En: After a moment of hesitation, Maartje agreed.Nl: Ze knikte langzaam.En: She nodded slowly.Nl: "Heel goed," zei ze.En: "Very well," she said.Nl: "Maar als het te gevaarlijk wordt, keren we terug."En: "But if it gets too dangerous, we'll turn back."Nl: De drie zetten hun tocht voort, omhoog de heuvel op naar de ruïnes.En: The three of them continued their journey, up the hill to the ruins.Nl: De sneeuw knisperde onder hun voeten en een ijzige wind sneed door hun dikke jassen.En: The snow crunched under their feet and an icy wind cut through their thick coats.Nl: Maar Sanne voelde de spanning van het avontuur door haar aderen stromen.En: But Sanne felt the thrill of the adventure coursing through her veins.Nl: Bram hield dichterbij, zijn ogen voortdurend alert voor gevaar.En: Bram stayed closer, his eyes constantly alert for danger.Nl: Plotseling stopte Maartje.En: Suddenly, Maartje stopped.Nl: "Daar," wees ze.En: "There," she pointed.Nl: Tussen de druk van de vallende sneeuw waren vage contouren zichtbaar.En: Amidst the pressure of the falling snow, vague contours were visible.Nl: Een gebroken boog, verborgen onder een dikke laag ijs en sneeuw.En: A broken archway, hidden beneath a thick layer of ice and snow.Nl: Sanne voelde haar hart versnellen.En: Sanne felt her heart race.Nl: Ze groeven voorzichtig in de sneeuw.En: They carefully dug into the snow.Nl: Onder de boog zagen ze een donkere opening verschijnen.En: Under the archway, they saw a dark opening appear.Nl: Een grot of een doorgang die diep naar beneden leidde.En: A cave or passage leading deep down.Nl: Het was precies zoals in de oude verhalen.En: It was just like the old stories.Nl: "Dit is het," fluisterde Sanne vol ontzag.En: "This is it," Sanne whispered in awe.Nl: Ze keken elkaar aan, de zware stilte verbrekend door het huilen van de storm die inmiddels woest om hen heen loeide.En: They looked at each other, the heavy silence broken by the howl of the storm now raging around them.Nl: "Dit is maar het begin," merkte Bram op terwijl hij zijn positie voor veiligheid checkte.En: "This is just the beginning," Bram noted as he checked his position for safety.Nl: "We moeten ons voorbereiden op wat we hierna doen."En: "We need to prepare for what we do next."Nl: Met het opzetten van een tweekamp begonnen ze enkele kleinere artefacten te verzamelen.En: Setting up a small camp, they began collecting some smaller artifacts.Nl: Fragmenten van aardewerk en fragmenten van oude gereedschappen.En: Pottery fragments and pieces of old tools.Nl: Het waren misschien geen schatkamers van goud, maar ze hintten naar iets groters, iets dat verborgen lag in het verleden.En: They might not be treasure troves of gold, but they hinted at something greater, something hidden in the past.Nl: De storm begon hen echter genadeloos terug te drijven.En: However, the storm began to mercilessly drive them back.Nl: De sneeuw werd heftig en dichte mist ontnam hen het zicht.En: The snow became heavy and thick fog deprived them of visibility.Nl: "We moeten terugkeren," riep Maartje al wijzend.En: "We have to go back," Maartje shouted, gesturing.Nl: "Het is te gevaarlijk!"En: "It's too dangerous!"Nl: Sanne knikte, gevulde met een diepere waardering voor de kracht van de natuur en de wijsheid van local lore.En: Sanne nodded, filled with a deeper appreciation for the power of nature and the wisdom of local lore.Nl: Ze verzamelden hun vondsten en keerden terug naar de veiligheid van hun kamp, met de belofte van verhalen en moed om het opnieuw te proberen.En: They gathered their findings and returned to the safety of their camp, with the promise of stories and courage to try again.Nl: Toen ze terug in hun warme schuilplaats waren, keken ze terug naar de heuvel, de ruïnes nog steeds grotendeels verborgen, maar nu met de belofte van meer.En: Back in their warm shelter, they looked back at the hill, the ruins still largely hidden, but now with the promise of more.Nl: Sanne glimlachte naar Maartje.En: Sanne smiled at Maartje.Nl: "Je had gelijk.En: "You were right.Nl: Soms moet je geduld hebben en vertrouwen in wat je eerst niet ziet."En: Sometimes you need patience and to trust in what you can't see at first."Nl: Ze warmden zich op met een kop warme chocolademelk, de zoete smaak meng zich met de opwinding van hun ontdekking.En: They warmed up with a cup of hot chocolate, the sweet taste mixing with the excitement of their discovery.Nl: De storm zou gaan liggen, de ruïnes zouden blijven en het kerstseizoen werd gevuld met hoop en wonder.En: The storm would calm, the ruins would remain, and the holiday season was filled with hope and wonder.

'संसार एक भ्रम है, और उसके रहस्य समय के सर्प को चुनौती देते हैं।En: It means - 'The world is an illusion, and its mysteries challenge the serpent of time.'"Hi: '"अनिका ने ध्यान से पढ़ा।En: Anika read attentively.Hi: स्थानीय कथाओं में उलझकर रहस्यों को समझने में उन्हें देर नहीं लगी।En: It didn't take them long to unravel the mysteries entwined in local legends.Hi: वे समझे कि वस्तु की बनावट और मेटल इंस्ट्रूमेंट्स का समन्वय था।En: They understood that the object was a blend of design and metal instruments.Hi: किसी समय यह वस्तु आकाश के नक्शे दिखाने के लिए इस्तेमाल होती होगी।En: At one time, this object might have been used to show maps of the sky.Hi: खंडहरों के रहस्यमय अनुभव के बाद, अनिका ने हाथ जोड़कर खंडहरों को धन्यवाद दिया।En: After the mysterious experience at the ruins, Anika folded her hands in gratitude.Hi: अब उन्हें समझ आ गया कि अज्ञात परियों की कहानियों में भी कहीं न कहीं विज्ञान छिपा होता है।En: They now understood that somewhere within the tales of unknown fairies, there is science hidden.Hi: वापस आते समय, अनिका ने कहा, "अब मुझे समझ आया कि हर कहावत का सम्मान आवश्यक है।En: On their way back, Anika said, "Now I understand that respecting every saying is necessary.Hi: हम इतिहास से बहुत कुछ सीख सकते हैं।En: We can learn a lot from history."Hi: "रोहन हँस दिया।En: Rohan laughed.Hi: "अब मुझे भी इन पुरानी धरोहरों का सम्मान करना है।En: "Now I too must respect these old heritages."Hi: "देव मुस्कुराया।En: Dev smiled.Hi: "हमने एक अद्भुत अनुभव साझा किया है।En: "We have shared a wonderful experience.Hi: यह क्रिसमस इन खंडहरों की तरह हमेशा यादगार रहेगा।En: This Christmas will always be memorable, just like these ruins."Hi: "यह सर्दियों की सुबह उनके लिए ज्ञान और समझ का नया अध्याय लेकर आई थी।En: This winter morning brought a new chapter of knowledge and understanding for them.Hi: प्राचीन वस्तु का रहस्य सुलझाकर उन्होंने न केवल शाप की कहानी का अंत किया, बल्कि अपने भीतर भी एक नई शुरुआत की।En: By unraveling the mystery of the ancient object, they not only ended the tale of the curse but also started a new beginning within themselves.Hi: ⛄En: ⛄ Vocabulary Words:sting: चुभनallure: आकर्षणancient: प्राचीनartistic: कलात्मकrelic: अवशेषvines: बेलेंcursed: शापितintensified: तेज़envelop: फैलनाechoed: गूंजाengraving: उत्कीर्णillusion: भ्रमserpent: सर्पgratitude: धन्यवादheritages: धरोहरोंmemorable: यादगारcompanion: साथीunravel: सुलझानाchallenge: चुनौतीblend: समन्वयmysterious: रहस्यमयcuriosity: उत्सुकताlegends: कथाएँscientific: वैज्ञानिकplaque: पट्टीattentively: ध्यान सेdebris: मलबाbreaths: सांसोंamidst: बीचmetal: धातु

havde arvet.En: Bjørn smiled and shared an old map he had inherited.Da: "Måske kan dette guide os mod flere hemmeligheder," sagde han.En: "Maybe this can guide us to more secrets," he said.Da: For

discoveries.Da: Sammen stod de med en artefakt rig på historie og en nyvundet venskab, klar til at udforske flere mysterier gemt i Danmarks gamle kyster.En: Together, they stood with an artifact rich

What's up, dudes? ‘Tis the season to be shopping! Hopefully you found the toys for which you were looking. We definitely wouldn't want a Jingle All the Way situation.On Monday, December 12, 1983, Carol Ann Campbell, staff writer for the York Daily Record, published an article. In “The Quest for a Very Dashing Hulk of Plastic,” she interviews several retail store owners. They enumerate the problem of low orders and large sales booms. Poor sales the previous two holiday seasons resulted in manufacturer overproduction and post-Christmas toy surpluses. Consequently, parents are scouring their communities and nearby cities to find the one gift their children each want. From He-Man to My Little Pony, from Cabbage Patch Kids to Knight Rider, toys are selling out faster than stores can stock them. Some parents, however, are turning toward perennial board game favorites like Battleship. Kiddie Town? Check. K&K Toys? Got it. Toys ‘R' Us? Only in my memories… So grab your keys and drive all over town to this episode on ”The Quest for a Very Dashing Hulk of Plastic!”Give us a buzz!

Christmas tree fires are frightening, but they're not the leading cause of house fires in the U.S. What's surprising is how many fires start from everyday habits and household choices most people never think twice about. This episode begins with a look at several common yet overlooked causes of home fires. Source: https://www.bobvila.com/articles/fire-safety/#.Viz3ILerTIU We alter our own memories far more than we realize. We forget details, highlight the good parts, and unintentionally distort events over time. Now scientists are exploring how to deliberately modify specific memories — softening painful recollections and strengthening positive ones. Steve Ramirez explains how memory really works and where this groundbreaking research is headed. He is an associate professor of psychological and brain sciences at Boston University, a TED speaker, and author of How to Change a Memory: One Neuroscientist's Quest to Alter the Past (https://amzn.to/3KFiLJp). Wildlife encounters seem to be increasing — bears on porches, coyotes in yards, bobcats strolling down suburban streets. Are these animals getting more comfortable with humans? Are we building into their territory? And what should you actually do during a close encounter? Randi Minetor, author of more than 90 books including The Bear at the Bird Feeder: Why We're Seeing More Wild Animals in Our Neighborhoods and How We Can Live in Harmony with Them (https://amzn.to/4pHy5UM), offers insight and practical advice. Seeing flashing police lights in your rearview mirror is enough to make anyone nervous. Once you're pulled over, what should you do — and just as important, what should you not do — when the officer approaches your window? We wrap up with key tips to help keep the encounter calm and trouble-free. Source: https://www.aamva.org/law-enforcement/what-to-do-when-stopped-by-law-enforcement PLEASE SUPPORT OUR SPONSORS!

Christmas Eve 1963. Chapel Hill, North Carolina. 34-year old Lucille Rinaldi, who happens to be five months pregnant, is bludgeoned and suffocated to death inside an apartment belonging to her husband, Frank Rinaldi. Even though Frank was supposedly out Christmas shopping when the crime took place, he is charged and convicted of Lucille's murder after investigators learn that Frank took out a life insurance policy on his wife and there are also allegations surface that he was a closeted gay man. However, after the Supreme Court of North Carolina rules that the jury was unfairly prejudiced at Frank's trial, his conviction is overturned and he is acquitted at his retrial. Was Lucille Rinaldi actually murdered by her husband or did the real killer manage to get away with it? On this week's holiday-themed episode of “The Trail Went Cold”, we explore a controversial and sensationalist Christmas Eve murder case. Join us on Saturday, December 20 at 8:00pm ET for an online streaming marathon where we will be watching classic segments from “Unsolved Mysteries”.
