Silly worries and petty rivalries. People arguing for no reason. People trying to accumulate more than they could ever need. This is what we do, isn't it?

If you're staring down your first sober holiday season—Thanksgiving pies, Hanukkah candles, office parties, Sober Christmas, Sober New Year—and thinking, “how am I going to do all of this without wine?”, this episode is for you. You do not need alcohol to survive December. You need a plan, a few scripts, and permission to make the holidays work for you. I asked Kim Kerns, author of On The Edge of Shattered, to share how she got through Hanukkah, Christmas, and New Year's in her first 30 days alcohol-free—and what actually works when you're brand new and the social calendar is loud. Kim stopped drinking the Saturday after Thanksgiving, cleared the house of every last drop (yes, even the dusty whiskey), told the right people first, and built new traditions her family actually loves.

After a narrow loss to the Rams, a mental shift needed to focus on the upcoming game against the Tennessee Titans. Considering the way the season is going for the Titans, the expectation is that we'll have a prime opportunity to see Seattle bounce back. Should Seattle focus on the running game or open up the passing attack this week? Defensively, we get into the reasons why our edge rushers and linebackers can dominate versus the Titans offense. We also discuss how expectations to win against a struggling team will cast a shadow on this matchup. Can they get back to playing at that high level prior to facing their division rival.

Inger Kuin is a researcher, writer, and teacher focused on the intellectual history of ancient Greece and Rome. She is Associate Professor of Classics at the University of Virginia. Originally from The Netherlands, she publishes both in English and in Dutch.

On today' Daily Puck Drop, Jason “Puck” Puckett and the Go-2-Guy Jim Moore open up the show reacting to the Josh Naylor press conference.  Puck and Jim were in such awe how he handled himself and how he thanked the fans.  Bringing Naylor back is one of the best moves the Mariners or any Seattle team has ever made.

Send Kris and Rob a Text Message!On the night before Thanksgiving, November 24th, 1971, a man in a dark suit and a sensible tie took seat 18C on Northwest Orient Flight 305—a short hop from Portland to Seattle aboard a Boeing 727. He ordered bourbon and soda, smoked his Raleighs, and handed a folded note to the flight attendant. It wasn't a phone number. It was a promise. Inside the briefcase, he said, was a bomb. What followed would become the only unsolved hijacking in American aviation history: a case file swollen with false confessions, river drags, suspect sketches, and a handful of decaying bills that surfaced years later like a message from a ghost. In this true crime deep dive, we unravel the legendary 1971 hijacking of Northwest Orient Flight 305 by the man calling himself Dan Cooper—mistakenly immortalized as D.B. Cooper. Calm, well-dressed, and carrying what he said was a bomb, Cooper demanded $200,000 in cash and four parachutes, then jumped out of a Boeing 727 mid-flight over Washington State… and was never seen again.In this episode, we break down the full timeline of the hijacking, how the FBI launched NORJAK (Northwest Hijacking), why the 727's aft airstair mattered, the discovery of ransom money on the Columbia River years later, and the leading suspects who've been tied to the case—none of whom were ever charged. More than 50 years later, the D.B. Cooper case remains the only unsolved skyjacking in U.S. history.You'll hear:Who D.B.

The very first Voices Rock choir started in Denver in 2014 by a music teacher who heard from her students’ parents and her own  friends that they wished they had some kind of musical outlet. Jill Teas obliged with a small group of adults who met for several weeks, rehearsing popular songs and performing them at local bars. But the no-audition “come one, come all” ethos of the choir quickly spread to other Colorado cities. And after a few years, Teas chose to quit her teaching job to run the Voices Rock organization full time. This year, three Northwest cities began their own Voice Rock chapters: Seattle, Tacoma and Portland.  We hear from the Voices Rock founder about the idea behind the choir — and from two Portland participants, director Caley Barstow and soloist Courtney Upton, about what they get out of it.

Ed Lane, a 38-year real estate veteran from Seattle, led a focused training on why the holiday season can be one of the strongest times to sell. He emphasized that a seller's personal circumstances—not the calendar—should guide listing decisions, and he provided proven scripts to address common objections about selling in December. Ed shared that December consistently ranks as his third-busiest month for closings, due to the higher motivation and seriousness of holiday buyers. He also covered how to navigate holiday décor, tax advantages of year-end closings, and the strategic benefits of getting on the market before the January listing surge.

Too Early Super Bowl Picks! Over Rated, Under Rated or Properly Rated! Plus: Your Thanksgiving Table MVP...

Welcome to Episode 118 of Tablesetters. The offseason opened with a major move, as Josh Naylor signed a five-year deal with the Seattle Mariners, immediately reshaping the first-base market. His return reinforces Seattle's lineup core and removes one of the most dependable bats from free agency. We break down why the deal came together quickly, why other teams never seriously entered the mix, and how his signing affects clubs still searching for first-base or middle-of-the-order help. Midway through the live show, the conversation shifted when news broke that the Orioles traded Grayson Rodriguez to the Angels for Taylor Ward. Rodriguez missed the entire 2025 season with arm injuries, but the Angels are betting on the upside he showed before the setbacks. Ward, under control through 2026, gives Baltimore a steady right-handed bat and immediate outfield stability. We break down how the trade fits each team's broader offseason plan and what it suggests about their priorities moving forward. The episode also covers one of the most unusual qualifying-offer cycles since the system's creation. Four players accepted the QO — Trent Grisham, Gleyber Torres, Shota Imanaga, and Brandon Woodruff — marking the first time more than three players have taken it in the same offseason. Grisham's decision is the most surprising, coming off a breakout 34-homer season in a thin outfield market. His acceptance raises the Yankees' payroll above the third luxury-tax tier and signals a calculated one-year bet on himself. Torres returns to Detroit looking for a healthier 2026 after playing through a sports hernia. Imanaga chose a reset with Chicago after a late-season downturn, and Woodruff accepted as expected as he continues his recovery from shoulder surgery. On the other side, nine players rejected the QO — Kyle Tucker, Kyle Schwarber, Bo Bichette, Framber Valdez, Dylan Cease, Ranger Suárez, Edwin Díaz, Zac Gallen, and Michael King — a group largely expected to pursue multi-year deals despite draft-pick compensation. Their decisions, combined with Grisham coming off the board, further thin the center-field market and shift clubs toward potential trade options. This QO cycle reflects a winter shaped by uncertainty around future labor conditions, stricter tax penalties, and mixed performances from several major free agents. In San Diego, the Padres' ownership evaluation remains ongoing. The Seidler family is formally exploring a potential sale while working through internal disputes and long-term financial considerations. The front office maintains a “business as usual” stance, but the review introduces real questions about payroll strategy and organizational stability heading into 2026. Award season added another layer to a busy week. Shohei Ohtani earned another unanimous MVP, and Aaron Judge secured his third after a tightly contested race. On the pitching side, Tarik Skubal won his second straight AL Cy Young Award, and Paul Skenes captured the NL honor just a year after winning Rookie of the Year — a rare progression that underscores how quickly he has become one of the league's most impactful pitchers. In Washington, the Nationals introduced Drew Butera as their new manager, making him the youngest skipper in Major League Baseball in more than 50 years. His development-focused background aligns with the organization's larger reset under Paul Toboni. The 2026 Hall of Fame ballot was also released, featuring returning candidates such as Carlos Beltrán and Andruw Jones along with first-time names including Cole Hamels, Ryan Braun, and Matt Kemp.

Headlines and 12th Man News with GREGG BELL (Tacoma News Tribune) We start with an injury update on Grey Zabel and we did get some good news! Should we expect Zabel to play against the Titans on Sunday and how big of a loss is it to not have him on the field? Was this one bad game for Darnold or further proof that he can't step up in a big game? Did Gregg leave LA feeling better about the Seahawks or having more doubts? Will the Seahawks finally get Ken Walker more involved in the run-game? :30- Michael Penix Jr appears to have suffered a season-ending knee injury and the Falcons will now rely on Kirk Cousins. If he were available before the season ends, should they sit him anyway and focus on their draft position and his health for next year? Is Raheem Morris the right guy to lead this Falcons team? He is a defensive coach, can he navigate this Falcons team that has focused so heavily on offensive weapons? :35- It's Fact or Fiction time! :45- Clearly the Josh Naylor love for Seattle runs as deep as Seattle's love for Jimmy Naylz!

We have the welcoming remarks from the new Socialist mayor of Seattle. Not much different remarks than the ones from the Minneapolis city council. We follow up AI-generated song about Marjorie Johnson. The review of the 48 hour ruiling cold case. Strange object.

It's News Day Tuesday on the Majority Report On today's program: Rep. Mike Johnson (D-LA) is happy to pass the Epstein buck over to John Thune (R-SD) and the Senate, allowing them to hamstring the release of the files. Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene speaks at a presser organized by Rep. Ro Khanna and Rep. Thomas Massie, alongside a group of Epstein survivors. Donald Trump's approval rating with Latinos has plummeted. I wonder why? ICE has invaded Charlotte, North Carolina, and the response has been fast and robust. In the Fun Half: Bill Maher bombs in front of his own audience, who are PAID to laugh, then announces he is quitting stand-up because he is tired of being twice as funny as people who sell twice as many tickets. Trump is particularly incoherent while speaking at a McDonald's summit. As the Epstein discharge petition is about to pass through the House of Representatives, Trump is getting angrier and angrier with reporters. Tim Pool humiliates himself on Jesse Watters as he strings together a line of nonsense while Jesse nods like he understands what beanie man is saying. Dave Portnoy cries on CBS News as he makes the case that he and Barstool have never believed in making jokes based in hate. It turns out that Barstool's strong moral compass is not pointing toward true north, as we take a look at some of the hateful jokes Portnoy has made in the past. Seattle's new mayor, Katie Wilson, stands with striking Starbucks employees, even encouraging Seattle residents to boycott them until an acceptable contract is signed. All that and more. The Congress switchboard number is (202) 224-3121. You can use this number to connect with either the U.S. Senate or the House of Representatives.

This is not an easy story to tell. In the town where I live, Bellingham, Washington, there’s a beautiful urban creek. It flows just four miles from a lake, through a city park, down through the town to the sea. But in the summer of 1999, disaster struck. A gasoline pipeline ruptured, causing an explosion. Young lives were lost, and the creek and the ecosystems around it were obliterated. But amid the destruction, amid all the loss, the creek found a way to find life again. And the people of Bellingham somehow found a way to move forward. This is a story about the strength of the human spirit and how a community, a creek, and the once-thriving forest that it passed through began to recover after losing so much. We would like to dedicate this episode to the memory of Liam Wood, Wade King and Stephen Tsiorvas. Our hearts go out to their families.

Donate (no account necessary) | Subscribe (account required) Join Bryan Dean Wright, former CIA Operations Officer, as he dives into today's top stories shaping America and the world. In this episode of The Wright Report, Bryan takes listeners across Venezuela, Colombia, Mexico, and Chile to reveal a regional battle between the Left and the Right. He then connects these global trends to the rise of Democratic Socialism in the United States and explains what a socialist future for America would look like in the words of the Democratic Socialists of America themselves. Trump Weighs Strikes in Venezuela and Colombia: The USS Gerald Ford carrier strike group has arrived off the Venezuelan coast with fifteen thousand U.S. troops in the region. Trump says he will not rule out military action or even ground forces against the Maduro regime, which the State Department has formally labeled a terrorist organization. Maduro has offered Trump access to Venezuela's massive oil reserves in exchange for staying in power, and the White House is openly considering all options. In Colombia, Marxist president Gustavo Petro continues to defend his past with the M-19 terror group. Trump signaled he is willing to hit Colombian drug labs if necessary, saying he would be "proud" to destroy them. Mexico Erupts Over Cartel Violence: Mexico City saw a weekend of violent protests that left one hundred officers injured. Outrage grew after the assassination of a popular mayor in Michoacan by a cartel-recruited teen. Protesters blasted President Claudia Sheinbaum's approach of "Hugs, Not Bullets," arguing it has empowered cartels and left communities defenseless. Younger Mexicans filled the streets, furious that their country remains trapped between socialist leadership and cartel domination. Chile Rejects the Far Left: Seventy percent of Chilean voters backed conservative candidates in the first round of the presidential election. Jose Kast, a conservative Catholic with nine children, will face Communist Party member Jeanne Jara in the December runoff. Voters say crime, cartels, and mass illegal migration have pushed the nation to the breaking point. Kast has vowed to secure the border with walls and landmines, expand prisons, and cut leftist funding that has fueled unrest and economic decline. The Bigger Picture: A Hemisphere in Revolt: Across Latin America, leftist governments are collapsing under crime, corruption, and failed socialist policies. Voters in Bolivia, Argentina, Ecuador, Panama, and El Salvador have already swung to the Right. Europe is shifting too. Yet the United States is moving in the opposite direction. Cities like New York and Seattle are embracing radical Democratic Socialists who draw inspiration from Latin American Marxists. What a Socialist America Would Look Like: Bryan walks through the Democratic Socialists of America's own strategy document from 2012. The group calls for abolishing private business, seizing the means of production, replacing entrepreneurs with government bureaucrats, and using the Democratic Party as a host to move the country toward Marxism. DSA leaders admit there is no blueprint for how their system would work and acknowledge the violent history of Marxist regimes. Their model depends on free housing, free jobs, free education, and government assigned careers funded by an undefined source. Bryan warns that the movement is already advancing inside the Democratic Party with leaders like AOC and Zohran Mamdani openly following the playbook.   "And you shall know the truth, and the truth shall make you free." - John 8:32     Keywords: Trump Venezuela USS Gerald Ford, Maduro cartel de los soles terrorism, Gustavo Petro M-19 Colombia strikes, Mexico City cartel protests Claudia Sheinbaum, Michoacan mayor assassination cartel teen, Chile election Jose Kast Jeanne Jara, Democratic Socialists of America 2012 document, DSA seize means of production, Mamdani AOC Democratic Party strategy

Legendary NPR Pentagon correspondent Tom Bowman returns to Independent Americans for a timely, unflinching conversation about war, truth, journalism, and the future of our democracy. Hosted by Paul Rieckhoff (@PaulRieckhoff), this episode pulls back the curtain on major national security stories the mainstream press can't or won't cover—from the White House's escalating battle against independent media, to looming military action in Venezuela, to how Pentagon secrecy impacts the lives of American troops and families. Tom and Paul dive deep into today's threats to press freedom, why he handed in his credentials after 28 years, the realities of military reporting post-Iraq and Afghanistan, and what these changes mean for everyday Americans. They also discuss how massive Trump-led Congressional cuts are hitting NPR and PBS, the winning ways of the New England Patriots and Oregon Ducks, parenting, and why hope—and vigilance—matter more than ever. Because every episode of Independent Americans with Paul Rieckhoff breaks down the most important news stories--and offers light to contrast the heat of other politics and news shows. It's independent content for independent Americans. In these trying times especially, Independent Americans is your trusted place for independent news, politics, inspiration and hope.
