Happy New Year and welcome to 2026! In this episode, Kris sits down with Megan Ferring, a dynamic regional director at Hamilton Heights Child Development Center, where her 16-year journey began as a preschool teacher. Megan's deep commitment to both operational excellence and playful leadership recently earned her the Director of the Year award.   Kris and Megan talk about how Hamilton Heights approaches leadership structure, branding, and enrollment strategy across its six locations. Megan shares her perspective on centering community connections, building team culture, and developing consistent processes across all sites. She also reflects on her growth from shy teacher to confident presenter, the importance of celebrating wins through initiatives like the Hammy Awards, and how servant leadership, inflatable silly Santa costumes, and "yellow box" muffin runs all play a role in culture-building.   Key Takeaways: [7:24] Megan shares about her family life, including her 17-year-old and 12-year-old sons and her love of camping with her husband of 18 years. [8:01] She began working in early childhood during high school and has now been with Hamilton Heights for over 16 years. [9:12] Her leadership journey has included roles as a preschool teacher, toddler teacher, assistant director, director of special projects, and now regional director. [13:06] Megan emphasizes the importance of building brand recognition and making your center a household name in the community. [14:17] Community outreach strategies and partnerships with early childhood networks. [17:43] She encourages leaders to recenter on their program's unique strengths to maintain and grow enrollment. [19:52] In her new company-wide compliance role, Megan oversees SOP alignment, staff file audits, and training expiration alerts using BambooHR. [24:05] She finds value in the Academy's team program for helping leaders feel less alone and more connected. [27:05] Megan uses playful leadership tactics like inflatable costumes, scavenger hunts, and holiday games to boost team morale. [30:27] She prioritizes understanding how each team member feels appreciated using workplace love languages. [33:59] Megan shares how her leadership team supports one another through challenges with trust and shared commitment. [34:24] She defines a childcare rockstar as someone who shows up every day to serve children and families with heart. [36:28] Hamilton Heights recognizes excellence through company-wide shoutouts and the annual "Hammy Awards" celebration.   Quotes: "The thing that I've recognized about myself is that I'm a lifelong learner. That fuels me. So being able to do that and put it into my toolkit is just great." — Megan [12:31]   "I think the big thing to learn in all of this is that it's important that you put your footprint in the community that you're serving." — Megan [14:09]   "I think that in that team room, something special happens. In the main room, too. You don't feel alone; you're hearing that people are struggling with the same issue you are, and it makes you feel better. And that you're not in it alone." — Megan [24:02]   "Not everybody has the same heart and drive that I do, and that's okay. It's what sets me apart." — Megan [37:44]   Sponsored By: ChildCare Education Institute (CCEI) Use code CCSC5 to claim a free course!   Mentioned in This Episode: Kris Murray @iamkrismurray The Child Care Success Company The Child Care Success Academy The Child Care Success Summit Grow Your Center Childcare Education Institute: Use code CDARenewal22 to get $100 off your renewal Ep 202 with Adrianne Agulla  Hamilton Heights Child Development Center

They reflect on the joy and challenges of Christmas, with the guest emphasizing the importance of spreading joy and the emotional aspects of the holiday.

Michael J Bennett and Jessica Piscatelli Robinson tell holiday stories that are new, true and kinda blue.  

Welcome back to another chaotic episode of the Working Perspectives Podcast! Tonight, your hosts Matt, Liam, and Bern are taking "Current Events" to a whole new level of insanity with our signature Guess The News Challenge. The rules are simple: Each host brings one bizarre, true news story from around the globe. They read the story aloud but intentionally leave out the most crucial details. The other two hosts have only 4 minutes and 3 strikes to guess the missing pieces before the clock runs out!

Susan Murphy is dragged by her anthropologist parents to the Arctic so they can study the Eskimo tribe who introduced the world to Gamera. Susan is angry she will miss her last two years of high school while her younger twin siblings, Shawn and Sharon, love that they live closer to the North Pole and Santa Claus. But Susan won't have any of this “baby stuff” and berates the twins, who run away. Susan is forced by her father to search for them, and she wrecks her snowmobile in a blizzard. When she awakes, she finds herself in the North Pole, which has the twins, Elves, a talking polar bear, and, yes, Santa Claus. If that wasn't enough, she and her siblings get caught up with an invasion by Santa's evil brother, Krampus, who commands an army of Goblins and a kaiju reindeer. Gamera intervenes, but he's left-for-dead by the monstrous reindeer. Now, Susan and her new friends race against time to revive the Friend to All Children with Santa's magic Wreath crown. But is the teenage girl's faith strong enough to save the mighty turtle? Also features sound effects by My Soothing White Noise.

Steed and Jrad are back while JC and Santa are gone in this resolution focused Chubstep. The guys start with Steed's newest heroic act where he resuscitated a man, and Jrad's car breaking down on his Christmas drive before getting into the main topic. The guys start with why the New Year is on January 1st and hows that's changed over time, the unlikely religious connection to January 1st, a 10 month calendar, the timing of when resolutions fail, historical figures resolutions they couldn't keep, virtue signaling with resolutions, corporate and political promises they have no plan of keeping, and how finding someone worse off than you is the perfect solution.

We wrap up So Many Santas on So Many Sequels with Miracle on 34th Street (1947), the Christmas classic that starts out as a department store comedy and somehow turns into a straight-up courtroom drama. We talk Kris Kringle (Edmund Gwenn) getting put on the stand, the movie's surprisingly spicy take on Christmas commercialism, and how everyone around him goes from “aww, cute Santa guy” to “call the authorities” in record time.By the end, it's less “Ho ho ho” and more “Your Honor, I'd like to call the U.S. Postal Service.” So what's your verdict—are you buying the magic, or do you need the paperwork to believe? Drop your take in the comments, and subscribe & leave us a review.

In this episode of Talk Nerdy, Cara is joined by American historian, writer, and author, Dr. Christine Rosen. They discuss her newest book, The Extinction of Experience: Being Human in a Disembodied World.

Reviewing the holidays, Santa scars of different types, Andy's ban from Conan, Josh revisits the donkey incident, a surprise gift, listener questions, and much more Spiraling.

Transcript:Ca: Lluïa el sol d'hivern sobre el mercat brillant, on les llums nadalencs reprimien el fred amb el seu caliu daurat.En: The winter sun shone over the mercat glittering, where the Christmas lights held back the cold with their golden warmth.Ca: Les olors de les castanyes torrades omplien l'aire mentre la gent passejava animada, comprant regals per al Dia de Reis.En: The smells of roasted chestnuts filled the air as people strolled cheerfully, buying gifts for Dia de Reis.Ca: Lluís, amb la seva cara afable i una mica despistat, es movia entre les parades amb pressa.En: Lluís, with his affable and somewhat absent-minded face, moved hurriedly among the stalls.Ca: Portava una bossa petita amb un regal que havia comprat per a Montserrat: un suèter càlid, però tristament, la talla equivocada.En: He carried a small bag with a gift he had bought for Montserrat: a warm sweater, but sadly, the wrong size.Ca: Sabia que Montserrat voltava per allà, buscant regals també, i preferia evitar que la trobés abans de poder canviar el suèter.En: He knew Montserrat was around, also looking for gifts, and he preferred to avoid being found by her before he could exchange the sweater.Ca: Tenia por que veiés el regal equivocat i es desil·lusionés.En: He was afraid she would see the wrong gift and be disappointed.Ca: Enmig de la multitud, Lluís va veure un posat de barrets i, sense pensar-ho dues vegades, va agafar un barret de Pare Noel per posar-se'l com a disfressa improvisada.En: In the midst of the crowd, Lluís saw a stall selling hats, and without thinking twice, he grabbed a Santa hat to disguise himself.Ca: —Potser així no em reconeixerà —es va dir, satisfet amb el seu enginy.En: "Maybe this way she won't recognize me," he said to himself, satisfied with his cleverness.Ca: El mercat, ple de colors i veus, semblava un laberint sense fi.En: The mercat, full of colors and voices, seemed like a never-ending labyrinth.Ca: Els nens corrien emocionats, i els pares carregaven bosses de regals.En: Children ran excitedly, and parents carried bags of gifts.Ca: Lluís va trobar la botiga on havia comprat el suèter i va entrar decidit a fer l'intercanvi abans que fos massa tard.En: Lluís found the store where he had bought the sweater and entered determined to make the exchange before it was too late.Ca: Amb el regal corregit sota el braç, Lluís va intentar sortir de la botiga amb discreció, però el seu pla va tenir un gir inesperat.En: With the corrected gift under his arm, Lluís tried to leave the store discreetly, but his plan took an unexpected turn.Ca: De sobte, va topar directament amb Montserrat.En: Suddenly, he bumped directly into Montserrat.Ca: La bossa li va caure, i el suèter corregit va sortir rodant pel terra.En: The bag fell, and the corrected sweater rolled across the floor.Ca: —Lluís!En: "Lluís!"Ca: —va dir Montserrat rient quan va veure'l amb el barret ridícul de Pare Noel—.En: Montserrat said, laughing when she saw him with the ridiculous Santa hat.Ca: Què fas així vestit?En: "What are you doing dressed like that?"Ca: Lluís, una mica avergonyit, va intentar explicar-s'ho entre rialles.En: Lluís, a little embarrassed, tried to explain himself amid laughter.Ca: Montserrat va començar a riure encara més quan va descobrir el suèter.En: Montserrat began to laugh even more when she discovered the sweater.Ca: —Volia assegurar-me que el dia de Reis fos perfecte per tu —va admetre Lluís, encara amb el somriure sota el barret.En: "I wanted to make sure Dia de Reis was perfect for you," Lluís admitted, still smiling under the hat.Ca: Montserrat no podia parar les rialles.En: Montserrat couldn't stop laughing.Ca: Li va ensenyar una bossa que portava ella mateixa.En: She showed a bag she was carrying herself.Ca: —Sabies que a mi també m'han donat la mida errònia per a tu?En: "Did you know they also gave me the wrong size for you?Ca: Sembla que tots dos podem aprendre a riure dels nostres errors.En: It seems we both can learn to laugh at our mistakes."Ca: Es van mirar, compresos i alleujats.En: They looked at each other, understanding and relieved.Ca: Els errors havien conduït a un moment inesperat i ple de significat, i això els va omplir de calidesa.En: The mistakes had led to an unexpected and meaningful moment, and it filled them with warmth.Ca: Al capdavall, eren l'esforç i l'afecte allò que més importaven.En: After all, it was the effort and affection that mattered most.Ca: Amb el sol ponent-se sobre les llums del mercat, Lluís i Montserrat van caminar junts, compartint les seves històries i rient dels seus errors.En: With the sun setting over the lights of the mercat, Lluís and Montserrat walked together, sharing their stories and laughing at their mistakes.Ca: Aprengueren que les experiències, fins i tot amb errors, poden ser bellíssimes si són compartides amb un amic sincer.En: They learned that experiences, even with errors, can be beautiful if shared with a true friend.

Recorded in their hotel suite before the final show of the tour, Doug and Andy take us back to the night before, at the abominable Anchorage institution that is Chilkoot Charlie’s— where they're flooded with memories of mother/son sideshow acts, an infamous little-person bar, and when a Santa hat briefly became Stanhope’s most valuable piece of merchandise.

This holiday episode finds hosts John Viola, Patrick O' Boyle, Dr. Marcella Martin welcoming "La Befana" for a funny, warm conversation about the Epiphany gift-giver and Italian holiday traditions. The banter centers on coal, "naughty lists," and the idea that Befana—not Santa—was historically the one who brought gifts in many Italian homes. Befana explains her roots in older seasonal and pagan imagery—sweeping out the old year and welcoming renewal—later blended with the Christian Epiphany story of the Magi on January 6. John and the gang touch on the liturgical calendar, modest stocking traditions of tangerines, sweets, and "sugar coal," and the Italian notion of bella figura as respect and preparedness rather than mere fashion. The episode turns hands-on as Befana makes pasta, shares regional lore from Puglia and Sardinia, and swaps gifts with the hosts. It closes with a call for Italian Americans to keep their language and traditions alive through family rituals, children's activities, and community—using Befana as a joyful way to carry culture forward.   HOSTS: John Viola Patrick O'Boyle Dr. Marcella Martin   SPECIAL GUEST: La Befana (Viviana Altieri)   PRODUCED BY: Nicholas Calvello-Macchia

Have you seen the “Grinch prank” video trend? Bad parenting, yes. But also a nod to the conflicts, ancient and modern, embedded in Christmas.  Contrary to what Bill O'Reilly would tell you, there has never been a “war on Christmas.” Rather, Christmas itself has always been a battleground over love, dignity, and resources. What we're really fighting over is who gets care in systems built on scarcity and extraction.

Happy New Year! This year across Crime House, we released over 600 episodes. While we are proud of all of them, one episode rose above the rest and was voted on as Crime House's Best Episode of 2025. It's the case of the missing Martin Family, from Clues with Morgan Absher and Kaelyn Moore.  This episode takes us back to December 1958. The Martin Family was as picture-perfect as they come during the holidays: Santa suits, candy canes, Christmas cards. And then… they vanished without a trace. In this story, Morgan and Kaelyn unravel a case full of bizarre leads: an abandoned car, shifting witness accounts, and a station wagon that seemed to disappear into thin air.

My guest today on the Online for Authors podcast is DJ Quinn, author of the book Stick Figures. Dennis ‘DJ' Quinn is a three-time Big Brother / Big Sisters volunteer and assists with mentor programs in the Pierce County WA Juvenile Court system. His honest and humorous writing style came to life during his editing and writing jobs for airline labor unions, lifestyle magazines, and real estate advertising. The second oldest of nine children raised in Helena, MT, he currently resides in Gig Harbor, WA. He is also the author of Raft Island Treasure Hunters, an adventure tale for young readers.   In her book review Carole O'Neill stated: Stick Figures: A Big Brother Remembers is a memoir by D. J. Quinn. As he navigates between time with his Little Brother and his memories of those years, we unravel a happy, sad, guilty, loving, and grateful man who wishes he could have done more for his Little Brother.   Quinn meets Betty who is the foster mother of his potential Little Brother in the caseworker's office. The meeting was set up to allow them to get to know each other and discuss the expectations of both. Mike is not the average candidate the organization tries to match. He didn't start talking until he was four and is in special education. He is an energetic seven-year-old who loves to swim but doesn't like to go to the mall. Within the first few outings, D.J. quickly discovers he and Mike like to talk about Santa, God, showgirls, and speech therapy.   Above all, he is a gamer. Their time together always ended with a look at the calendar to make plans to meet the next time as they drew stick figures to document the time they just spent together. Mike looked forward to those drawings almost as much as the activities they enjoyed. During that time, they often were joined by D.J.'s partner and his Little Brother, Nate. The four of them found swimming off their boat to be one of their favorite pastimes.   During their thirteen-year journey, we follow their intimate true story told with humor and compassion. The twists and turns of their relationship from Mike's time on the run, to his time in prison, and finally to his final days, we laugh, we cry and we applaud D.J. for taking the interest in a young boy who needed help to grow into a man.   Subscribe to Online for Authors to learn about more great books! https://www.youtube.com/@onlineforauthors?sub_confirmation=1   Join the Novels N Latte Book Club community to discuss this and other books with like-minded readers: https://www.facebook.com/groups/3576519880426290   You can follow Author DJ Quinn Website: https://www.DJQuinnAuthor.com Social media: FB: @DJ Quinn Author IG: @djquinnauthor   Purchase Stick Figures on Amazon: Paperback: https://amzn.to/48IkuWk Ebook: https://amzn.to/4aEqyBR   Teri M Brown, Author and Podcast Host: https://www.terimbrown.com FB: @TeriMBrownAuthor IG: @terimbrown_author X: @terimbrown1   Want to be a guest on Online for Authors?

The countries within the EU and the U.K. have dealt with overwhelming censorship for decades now, is an all out assault on free speech coming to America? In the United Kingdom, 30 people are arrested every day for social media posts, retweets or even cartoons. Michael Shellenberger has been monitoring this dangerous trend and recently spoke to the EU Parliament. A very unpopular group of European leaders don't like when they see dissenting voices on the internet. Shellenberger describes a system in which the EU appoints so-called “trusted flaggers” – NGOs and academics who receive special access to the platforms' data in order to identify content that is to be removed. While President Trump has defunded a lot of the censorship taking place under Biden, this global censorship campaign has its sights set on America next. President Trump signed an executive order to move marijuana from Schedule 1 to Schedule 3, allowing medical research to be done for cannibodial medical purposes. Dr Oz is here today to discuss what this means for patients in pain or suffering from PTSD. As administrator of the Center for Medicaid and Medicare services, Dr Oz has already blocked fraudsters trying to scam Medicare. There are many sophisticated operations, including foreign governments that are attacking and defrauding Obamacare. As President Trump secured a victory in prescription drug pricing, Dr Oz is optimistic about getting real healthcare reform for American citizens.

Happy New Year's Eve from the Sean Spicer Show! As we get ready to welcome 2026, we hope you enjoy this conversation wim Tim Parlatore. An absolute bombshell was released in relation to the raid on President Trump's Mar-a-Lago. The FBI had repeatedly warned the Biden department of justice that it did not have probable cause to raid the property. Leading the charge was Biden prosecutor Jay Bratt, who 'threw out the book' in order to drum up charges on President Trump. Tim represented President Trump during the raid of Mar-a-Lago and gives us a first-hand account of the event.

Unlocked Listener Treemail-Bag – December 2025 Dive into Survivor strategy, reality TV crossovers, and rapid-fire pop culture takes as Rob Cesternino welcomes Brandon Donlon for the December Listener Tree Mailbag. As 2025 comes to a close, Rob and Brandon answer burning Survivor questions, swap holiday stories, and break down what’s coming in season 50. Rob and Brandon kick things off by comparing themselves to Santa's helpers as they sift through listener submissions. The conversation quickly moves into personal territory, including struggles with gift giving, Rob's favorite holiday memories, and what it’s like raising kids in a digital age. They swap stories about New Year’s parties and the “sleep schedules” of parents versus teens. On the Survivor front, Rob unpacks the decision-making behind bringing back returning players for season 50 and debates whether legends from earlier seasons still have a chance to return. Brandon wonders if Survivor's old guard “missed the boat,” while Rob analyzes the season 50 preview, including those much-discussed celebrity advantages. You'll hear discussions on: Survivor's 50th season casting patterns and returnee possibilities past season 40 How new “celebrity advantages” might show up and what impact they'll really have The return of recent contestants (like Rizo and Savannah) and the odds for players doing seasons back-to-back Lighter moments, like finding the “hobnobbing with the glitterati” catchphrase origins, holiday food talk, and why Rob shifted from Costco to Sam's Club Rob's favorite interviews (including an epic Dr. Will Kirby negotiation) and what it's like navigating podcasting while considering a Survivor return As Rob and Brandon trade insights, a big question looms: Will Survivor 50 live up to fan hype, and how will these twists shape the game?

Jason demanded we gift you all one last holiday movie treat in the form of the new 2025 Netflix rom-com My Secret Santa—a movie that asks, "What if instead of a dad disguising himself as Mrs. Doubtfire to see his kids, a mom disguises herself as Santa to get half-price snowboard lessons?" Paul, June, and Jason discuss if Matthew wants to bone Hugh Mann, the movie's obsession with hot cocoa, the locker room nudity scene, how two guys who merely like Halloween can create Mission Impossible style facemasks, if the movie is misogynistic, and so much more.
