Marcus, Luke and Jim bring you good Ramblings on Christmas Eve! They discuss Arsenal's confidence and bank account-boosting win against Crystal Palace last night and look ahead to the best of the Christmas action, including ONE Boxing Day fixture. We are outraged.We also salute the Rangers fan who chose to watch Elf in the stadium instead of their own team, and an even bigger salute for the fan in Portugal who travelled 900 miles (on his own) to watch his club draw 0-0.Plus, a listener provides a modicum of vindication for Pete Donaldson.

This episode is a replay of a recent episode of Road to the Trials - Season Four. As you'll hear, it's an extremely powerful and inspirational look at one of the many runners who are shining their light under the national running radar. Lindsey Hein and Peter Bromka sit down with JaQuavious Harris for one of their first post-race interviews from the California International Marathon. Jaquavious ran more than two minutes under the Olympic Trials standard, setting a massive marathon personal best and delivering one of the most energetic finish-line interviews of the weekend. In this conversation, he shares his journey to the marathon, his training under coach Ed Eyestone, and how faith, family, and community have shaped his path as a professional runner. This episode offers a deeper look at the story behind a breakthrough performance and the mindset that carried JaQuavious to a 2:13 marathon at CIM.

Why is it so hard to explain what you do, even when you're really good at it? In this episode, messaging strategist Damian Vallelonga breaks down why solopreneurs struggle with clarity, confidence, and consistency in their messaging, and what to do about it.We talk about why referrals aren't a strategy, how vague language quietly kills opportunities, and the exact framework Damian uses to help solopreneurs create elevator pitches, website headlines, and LinkedIn bios that actually make sense to other humans. If you've ever said, “I know what I do, I just don't know how to explain it,” this episode is for you.Episode FAQsWhy do solopreneurs struggle to clearly explain what they do?Solopreneurs struggle to explain what they do because they know too much. Years of experience, details, and expertise live in their heads, making it hard to simplify their message for someone hearing it for the first time. Clear messaging requires stepping outside your own perspective and focusing on what your audience needs to understand, not everything you know.What is the simplest framework for creating an effective elevator pitch?An effective elevator pitch has three parts:The common problem your ideal client is struggling withWhat you do to help solve that problemThe outcome or transformation they experience as a resultThis structure keeps your message focused, relatable, and easy to remember, without turning it into a list of credentials or services.How often should solopreneurs update their messaging?Solopreneurs should revisit their messaging any time their business changes in a meaningful way. This includes adding or removing services, narrowing a niche, shifting strategy, or changing who they serve. Messaging should always follow business strategy, because outdated or unclear messaging creates confusion, and confusion is one of the biggest barriers to growth.

Most people think communication is about what you say. It's not. It's about what happens in the listener's brain before you finish your sentence. This episode breaks down the neuroscience of communication and why charisma is overrated. Real influence comes from how the brain processes sound, novelty, and behavior in real time. You'll learn the communication frameworks used by top performers, executives, and elite negotiators including vocal entrainment, micro-behavior mirroring, attention psychology, dopamine triggers, storytelling science, and credibility language patterns. We cover how to speak in short, high-impact bursts, use questions to increase engagement, and control silence in high-stakes conversations. These are practical tools pulled from boardrooms, negotiations, and live debates. If you want to communicate with confidence, influence faster, and be taken seriously in business, leadership, sales, and negotiations, this episode will change how you speak. Communication isn't a soft skill. It's applied neuroscience. Protect what you own. Next makes it fast, simple, and painless.

This episode is a winter pause. Reflections on Yule and the winter solstice drift alongside thoughts on music, creativity, and looking back on the year without needing to tie it all up neatly. No structure, no pressure — just space to sit with what was, what remains, and what's quietly forming beneath the surface.

Broadcasting legend Clare Balding tells us why the Celebrity Traitors' castle was the perfect place to finish writing her latest book, how the author of a ‘bonkbuster' that was banned from her school became the person who got Clare into novel-writing, and the animals and women in literature who have captured her imagination. Clare grew up in the countryside surrounded by horses and dogs, reading everything from Jilly Cooper to Henry James. A keen rider, she competed as an amateur flat jockey during her teenage years, winning Champion Lady Rider in 1990. She is now one of Britain's leading broadcasters, receiving the BAFTA Special Award and RTS Presenter of the Year Award for her expert coverage of the London 2012 Olympic and Paralympic Games, and is an ardent campaigner for better coverage of women's sport. Clare hosts her much-loved Ramblings series on Radio 4, taking her across the British Isles exploring its landscape and its storytelling. She is also a bestselling and award-winning author of numerous books and children's novels, including her autobiography, My Animals and Other Family, which won the National Book Award for Autobiography of the Year. Her debut novel for adults, Pastures New, is a love letter to the countryside and the kindness of small communities, told with Clare's characteristic warmth and wit.  Clare's book choices are:  **Black Beauty by Anna Sewell **Riders by Jilly Cooper **The Seven Husbands of Evelyn Hugo by Taylor Jenkins Reid **Lessons in Chemistry by Bonnie Garmus  **Raising Hare by Chloe Dalton Vick Hope, multi-award winning TV and BBC Radio 1 presenter, author and journalist, is the host of season eight of the Women's Prize's BookshelfiePodcast.

This week's podcast episode is extra special because it's our last episode before January.  We're talking about some of our favorite Christmas traditions, Fran's recent day trip to New York City, and then we slow things down to reflect on our December memory verse: "But the angel said to them, 'Do not be afraid. I bring you good news that will cause great joy for all the people. Today in the town of David a Savior has been born to you; he is the Messiah, the Lord.'  Luke 2:10–11 As we close out the year, we're reminded just how deeply God loves each one of us personally, intentionally, and completely. We pray this conversation brings you peace, joy, and hope as you finish out the Christmas season.  Each episode is recorded on the campus of Union University!

There's No Timeline to Healing | A Rambling SessionHealing isn't linear. Some days you're thriving, other days you're side-eyeing your own progress wondering how you got back here. In this rambling session, I talk about why healing has no deadline, no pace, and definitely no straight line. We get into the stop-starting, the backtracking, the small wins that don't look impressive on paper, and why momentum matters more than perfection.This is your reminder that healing is a dance, not a race. You don't have to move fast. Just don't stop moving.If you've been beating yourself up for “falling back,” this one's for you.

In this audio-only episode today you can join me at home as I potter around, and take time to relax while recording a rambling episode for you to enjoy. Enjoy the sounds of street noise outside, and my attempts to find the most comfortable spot in my flat where I can ramble about various things, including several robberies in Paris - one of which is the famous heist at the Louvre museum, where burglars broke in and stole precious jewels worth millions, in broad daylight. The other robbery was more painful - our own apartment, which was broken into earlier this year. Join me as I discuss all of these things and more. The video episode this week is a walk & talk in Paris.Get the episode PDF transcript

In 1945, the world celebrated Allied victory in World War II — but across Asia, the war didn't end. It simply changed shape, sparking new battles for freedom and the end of empire.In this episode, historian Phil Craig joins Ramblings of a Sikh to discuss his new book, 1945: The Reckoning, the final volume in his acclaimed trilogy on the Second World War. Through the intertwined stories of five people — an Indian nationalist, a loyalist soldier, a nurse in famine-stricken Bengal, a doctor at Belsen, and a POW in Taiwan — Craig shows how “liberation” became a reckoning.Why did British generals re-arm Japanese troops in Vietnam?How did two Indian brothers, fighting on opposite sides, embody a nation at war with itself?And what does it mean to say victory betrayed millions?From the Bengal famine to the collapse of empire, this conversation explores how 1945 fractured families, toppled empires, and shaped the modern world we live in.

Life imitates art and I even heard a little girl cheer when Glinda slapped Elphaba and I was like "WHAT?!?" At best Glinda starts the second film as what is comparable to a Nazi sympathizer... no matter her reasoning (which is that she likes getting stuff and being praised, not a very convincing excuse) She's not a good person at the start of the film... there is a seed of good but it always came from Elphie's influence, ALWAYS and ONLY because of Elphaba... now I do applaud her willingness to change because she feels guilt about it from the start but like he said Fiyaro was only pretending to go along with Wizard to be a double agent, not because he wanted power and fame... Glinda was in it for herself... but as a character we see her growth and it's true and genuine goodness in my opinion... I don't have a problem with the character's redemption what I have a problem with is the reaction, it seems like moreso in the second film but overall that the audience likes her more, and she's goofy and funny so I get it, she's charming and Ariana is adorable... but people are being just as niave as munchkins and the studio is being just like the wizard, she's marketable and it doesn't matter that she's not the good guy (per se) they can "sell" her and people are buying it... imagine missing the point that hard, embarrassing

What does it mean to be a man? The eye-opening second half of this animated three-way conversation with Mark, Kelly, and our returning guest Jon Carl Lewis, talking about spirituality, sexuality, and the embodiment of masculinity—whether straight, queer, or trans. We explore the paradox of being simultaneously men of the world and “children of God,” balancing trusting God to help with our troubles and doing what we can in our power as well, and the need that even the strongest man has for community. Jon Carl Lewis describes himself as “your average queer, liberative theologian and spiritual guide.” His work invites” individuals and communities into conversation around how integration of the spiritual and the sexual/erotic can enliven and reconcile people of faith to themselves, the sacred, their communities, and all of creation.” His Substack is called “Ramblings (of a Queer, Christian Contemplative) (queerchristianramblings.substack.com). *****Special thanks to our sponsors at Quoir, publishers of The Quollective.The Quollective isn't just another media platform.

Time to show some love to a few venues that I somehow always manage to overlook in our WKXL NH Unscripted “What's Happening in the Entertainment Scene” segments. But, first stop is me showering kudos and love on Greg Gaskell's production of “Ye Merry Gentlemen” taking place at the Players Ring in Portsmouth. Then some deep admiration for Ernest Thompson for his kind and voluminous shoutouts to folks that he has worked with (it honestly caught me off guard). Then a tip of the hat to the various Christmas Carol productions about to take place around the state (humbly highlighting the version at Jean's Playhouse where I play Scrooge) and then off we go. The Tupelo Music Hall (The Nitty Gritty Dirt Band), Capitol Center for Arts (Cookies, Cocoa & Kindness) & (Stand By Me: The Film and Its Stars 40 yrs Later), Bank of NH Stage (Safe Haven Ballet Charlie Brown Christmas), Palace Theater (Nutcracker, Christmas Carol, Footloose, Cabaret) all get some NH Unscripted love.

In this episode of the Rambling Runner podcast, I continue my "How Can I Run Like I Used To?" mini-series. When we restart our running journey we are usually filled with excitement and vigor. That is wonderful! However, we need to balance those emotions with a plan of attack that allows us to build a foundation, identify problem areas we can address proactively, and set ourselves up for the exponential growth that can happen later in the process.

What does it mean to be a man? This is a lively and revealing three-way conversation with Mark, Kelly, and our returning guest Jon Carl Lewis (and our first episode in a long time in which we've had the pleasure of a guest in-studio with us!) that spans a wide range of topics related to the spirituality and embodiment of masculinity—whether straight, queer, or trans. Using as our jumping-off point the shared experience of being adult men facing the challenges of caring for and losing parents, the conversation then deepens into discussing the paradox of being simultaneously men of the world and “children of God,” balancing trusting God to help with our troubles and doing what we can in our power as well, and the need that even the strongest man has for community. Oh yeah, and then we start taking about sexuality as well! Listen for the first half of this candid, soul-baring conversation! 

 Jon Carl Lewis describes himself as “your average queer, liberative theologian and spiritual guide.” His work invites” individuals and communities into conversation around how integration of the spiritual and the sexual/erotic can enliven and reconcile people of faith to themselves, the sacred, their communities, and all of creation.” His Substack is called “Ramblings (of a Queer, Christian Contemplative) (queerchristianramblings.substack.com). ***** Special thanks to our sponsors at Quoir, publishers of The Quollective.

Week 11 is now consigned to the history books, and rather than discuss the games, we try and determine which 8 teams will not make the playoffs, and it turns out there are too many bad teams, so we have to argue for picks 7 and 8.We got through our Primetime Picks and Hall of Good is Defensive Backs.Main Theme - Back Door Brawl by Marc Walloch@TheSnapUK on Twitter and Instagram

This week's podcast might just be one of our favorites yet. We talked about cozy fall things like a cranberry orange simmer pot and deeper things, like our thoughts, our struggles, and the way God transforms us through them. Somewhere between laughter and reflection, we found ourselves saying, "We've lost our ability to consider other perspectives," and it hit us hard. We also talked about how sin, as painful as it is, can be the very thing God uses to change us from the inside out. And then this question: "Are you thinking about what you're thinking about?" Because we average 10,000 thoughts a day, and each one can either pull us closer to life and peace or further into chaos. Philippians 4:8–9 is our memory verse this month, and it's such a grounding reminder: to center our minds on what's true, noble, pure, lovely, and praiseworthy—and to actually live it out. When we do, the God of peace meets us right there. We hope that with each and every episode, you will find us talking about Jesus in our everyday lives while also learning, being challenged, and growing together while loving and laughing about what makes up our everyday lives.  We are so thankful Jesus is right there with us in the middle of it all.  Cranberry Orange Simmer Pot Recipe for Fall and Christmas Candle warmer lamp Granny Pants Yard Game  Knowing God by J I Packer Each episode is recorded on the campus of Union University!

In this episode, I had the pleasure of speaking with Heidi Peoples, a remarkable runner and multiple time Olympic Trials qualifier who recently finished first in her 45-49 age group at the Chicago Marathon. We delved into her journey from being a high school softball player to a marathon runner, her experiences balancing life as a teacher and a mother of four, and her strategies for maintaining energy and motivation. Heidi shared insights into her training evolution, the importance of surrounding oneself with supportive people, and her future goals in running.

Rachel Maddow points out the exceptional and unusually effusive praise and thanks that Donald Trump heaped on Abdel Fattah el-Sisi, the president of Egypt, at an event tied to the Israel-Gaza ceasefire, in which Trump bizarrely mentioned his race against Hillary Clinton. The episode calls to mind a mysterious $10 million and a related investigation's questions left open-ended after Trump was inaugurated the first time.Rachel Maddow looks at recent examples of Donald Trump using the power of American taxpayers to cut deals for himself and his friends and family, and focuses on the especially galling case of Trump and his Treasury secretary, Scott Bessent, sending an extraordinary $20 billion to bail out Argentina at a time when the U.S. government is closed for lack of funding.Rachel Maddow reports that the number of events planned for the "No Kings" day of protest on Saturday, October 18 already exceeds the previous "No Kings" protests that drew millions of Americans to voice their opposition to Donald Trump's overreach and attacks on democracy in the United States. Ezra Levin, co-founder and co-executive director of Indivisible, joins to discuss the planning and organizing taking place.  Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.
