For this episode our good friend Michelle Leigh visits us all the way from Michigan to talk about the recent transformation of her healing business into Reins of Light. Michelle is an accomplished Reiki Master and Energy Healer.  She shares how a visit to Sedona set her on the path of experimenting with and experiencing energy.  And how that ultimately led her to Reiki. But it wasn't until a chance encounter at an Equine energy retreat that Michelle discovered the calling she says “activated her life”.  And that is learning and practicing the special medicine that only horses can provide. Their calm and gentle nature hold space for humans in a very magical way and Michelle has dedicated herself to learning all she can and finding her own soul horse partner to help her on that journey.

Public records are theoretically available to the public. But as Michael Pope reports, local and state governments often deny access by charging large sums of money.

Earlier this year, wine industry veteran Jason McConnell acquired 38-year-old Anderson Valley Brewing Company [AVBC] (Boonville, CA). Now he is focused on maintaining AVBC's cherished traditions, such as its annual fest and its celebrated disc golf course, while adding his own flair.   McConnell chatted with Brewbound editor Justin Kendall during the California Craft Beer Summit in November about AVBC's beer park and several new Japanese-inspired offerings, as well as his observations as a newcomer to craft beer.    "The beer world is a lot more laid back and a lot more fun to promote than the wine world," McConnell said. "It's different, and it's awesome."   Before the interview, senior reporter Zoe Licata and managing editor Jessica Infante discuss Brewbound's most-read news stories of 2025, as well as recent headlines, including Stateside's new Super Lyte and data about consumers' plans for New Year's Eve and Dry January.

This episode of the Confessions of a Hashtag Beauty Boss podcast reflects on the transition from the year of the snake to the year of the horse, emphasizing the importance of taking control and moving forward with energy and symbolism. Angela Dickson discusses the significance of visibility and momentum for your beauty business in 2026, encouraging listeners to embrace change and take the reins in the new year.   Takeaways Reflect on the transition from the year of the snake to the year of the horse. Embrace the energy and symbolism of the year of the horse. Visibility in 2026 is not just helpful, it's essential. Momentum is rewarded in the year of the horse. 2026 asks if you are willing to take the reins. The year of the horse is fast, bold, and expansive. Move smarter, faster, and more decisively in 2026. Visibility will be essential, not just a trend. Stay bold, stay visible, and keep showing up. Take control and embrace change in the new year.

"Wait For Fire Burning" Formed in Oakland in 1985, Legal Reins were comprised of singer/guitarist Danny Benatar, bassist Eden Unger and drummer Tim Freund. They tore up the Bay Area scene, playing show after show and cementing themselves as one of the best live bands around. This is a band who did the work, got in the reps and eclipsed the Gladwellian idea of 10,000 hours. Opening for everyone from Madness to Killing Joke, Legal Reins proved themselves time and again that they could step on any stage and match anyone in terms of power and heart. Their exhilarating blend of sweeping pop epics and punchy hook laden rock and roll brought to mind everyone from The Sound to Echo and the Bunnymen to the Waterboys. After a bit of a bidding war, they signed to Arista in 1987, put out their debut album Please, The Pleasure soon after and then? Well, then things turned the other way. I'm going to let Tim tell you the story, but let me say this: In 1986 I was the music director of KVHS, an all-metal station located conveniently on my high school campus. I was in the habit of sneaking in The Smiths and The Chameleons in between Accept and Venom just to see if anyone noticed--they did, by the way. It was slightly terrifying to be 16 and getting death threats for not playing King Diamond, but I digress. Legal Reins called me up and they were very kind and I loved their music and one time I played them in between Y&T and Armored Saint and this one guy called up and said, very aggressively, Who was that you played after Y&T? I told him Legal Reins and he was quiet for second and then he said, That was pretty good...
