RECORDED FEBRUARY 25, 2025; Originally released March 26, 2025Guest: Daniel SwainWinds are howling outside Los Angeles, California on a dry January day. The hillsides north and east of the city erupt in flames. A wall of fire begins to consume neighborhoods faster than firefighters can keep up. As wind-driven embers continue to fly down hill - a thousand miles away, Daniel Swain's phone begins to light up. Journalists, companies, officials - all want answers to California's extreme weather and the impact of climate change. On this week's episode of Weather Geeks we learn how one high schooler, with a blog, ignited his career to become one of the leading communicators on climate change and the Weather out West.Chapters:00:00 California's Wildfires and Climate Change10:08 Daniel Swain: The Weather Geek's Journey19:52 The Importance of Effective Communication27:05 Linking Climate Change to Extreme Weather40:05 Understanding the Complexity of Weather EventsSee Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

The Marleys were dead: to begin with. There is no doubt whatever about that. The spirit of Christmas, however, is not.

Snow day's got nothing on this episode. Kail and Becky kick off this week's episode with real-life mom chaos: sleep deprivation, jet-lagged babies, fever dreams that feel way too real, and the whiplash of going from “easy baby” to “I'm about to lose my mind.” From there, they get honest about how parenthood can shift friendships, identity, and even your relationship with your partner; these are the parts people don't always say out loud, especially during the holidays.They also dive into building traditions, navigating the guilt of not showing up the same way for friends once kids enter the picture, and why the “village” feels harder to find than ever.To wrap it up, Kail and Becky tackle a wild “Karma or Chaos” submission from a veterinary nurse facing a moral dilemma: protect a brand-new business or report a vet for questionable (and potentially illegal) practices. It's messy, funny, empathetic, and very Karma and Chaos.Listen now for relatable motherhood talk, unfiltered friendship conversations, and a moral debate that'll have you yelling at your speaker.

Today, in partnership with UK Research and Innovation, we are asking whether it will snow on the 25th of December. It's frequently called a white Christmas and - at this time of year - weather forecasters and the bookies are busy weighing up the odds. So we've set out to explore how weather predictions are made, what constitutes snow, the role of technology in making forecasts, and whether parts of the UK will witness a white Christmas for 2025...

We're kicking off EP 1 with a simple goal: put a face and a voice to the person most of you talk to first. Cole sits down with Lawayne Snow to explain who he is, where he came from, and how Straight Jacket is trying to do things differently with customer service, QC, and problem solving. We get into why “call us first” saves you time, money, and frustration, plus the real world issues they hear every week like headspace confusion, bedding mistakes, tolerance stacking between stock, action, rail, rings, and optic, and the small setup problems that waste hundreds of rounds fast. Lane breaks down what he asks on the phone, how their QC sheet helps diagnose issues at home, and why the shop would rather help you fix it without shipping anything back.

Snow begins high in the clouds when tiny water droplets freeze around dust particles. As more water vapor freezes onto these particles, they grow into crystals. The temperature and humidity shape each crystal into a unique snowflake. Most snowflakes have six sides because of the way water molecules connect. When many crystals stick together, they become the soft flakes we see falling from the sky. Discover the science behind winter's most magical creation.

We're pulling back the curtain on our 2025 commercial snow setup and the equipment we rely on in real storms. Plows, salters, trucks, our new Isuzu, what's working, what we've learned, and why this setup shows up when it matters.

The guys welcome Matt Young of Young Landscapes, and Brandon Reilly of LADC to the show to talk about how the first month of the season has gone for everyone, and where ever else this from the hip conversation goes!

Tobin is fired up after seeing the Dolphins practicing in the snow on Saturday, but Leroy and Brittney aren't very moved by the sentiment. We discuss some more what we think the NFL Playoff landscape could look like as it seems there are no true front runners. We dip into our mixed bag but we quickly get derailed when Tobin poses a question to South Florida sports fans; if you could have either, which would you take… Joe Burrow to the Miami Dolphins or Giannis to the Miami Heat?

We have a busy Monday slate as the Dolphins take on the Steelers on MNF, the Heat play the Raptors, and the Cats are in action against the Lightning. Tobin was locked into Phillip River's return to football, the Colts almost got away with that one. It was an NFL Sunday full of injuries and elimination as the gang gets into the Chiefs missing out on the playoff and who they think could take the AFC. Leroy is disgusted by how Pavia reacted to not winning the Heisman, he took petty to a whole other level, and it's time to gather around the locker room as Leroy gives away his Gameballs and Gamebums, this edition ALL about the Heisman. Tobin is fired up after seeing the Dolphins practicing in the snow on Saturday, but Leroy and Brittney aren't very moved, as we discuss the NFL Playoff landscape with no true front runners. We quickly get derailed when Tobin poses a question to South Florida sports fans — Joe Burrow to the Miami Dolphins or Giannis to the Miami Heat? We kick off the final hour with sound from the Cats after their dominant win over the Dallas Stars, Philip Rivers shares how it feels to get hit again after 5 years away, we update the poll results, and wrap up the show with Alright! Oh No! as Tobin is mad at the fish, Leroy ain't buying the Phins in the snow, and Brittney has a soft spot for Philip Rivers.

Ace has just joined the TARDIS, and is a long, long way from home. Hunting treasure, solving snow-covered mysteries and meeting heroes of legend, a partnership is formed. The Doctor starts to see his protégée's potential - while Ace thinks their adventures are nothing less than 'wicked'... Backwards and in Heels by Alison Winter The Doctor has offered young Ace a lift home from Iceworld, promising the scenic route home to Perivale. But when they are diverted to 1920s Soho on what appears to be shady business, Ace wonders if she's making the right choices, let alone in the right order. The Price of Snow by Katharine Armitage Ski resort Val du Cam Belle is 'the place to be' for the 1% of the near future. But the Doctor and Ace discover sinister shadows beneath the surface of this winter wonderland. The sun is too hot, the shade is too dark and nothing is quite what it seems... The Ingenious Gentlemen by Alan Ronald Fiction and reality collide when a mad man with a box and a mad man with a horse encounter an ancient evil in 15th century Spain. But the adventurer-and-companion setup is a little too familiar to Ace, and she begins to question if she is anything more than a Sancho to the Doctor's Quixote. BACK IN STOCK!

Originally presented as Episode 52, December 16, 2024. Our stories today have us deep into holiday excitement in the Village. We'll stop by the bookstore in Snow and Streetlights and pursue the shelves, sip some hot cocoa, and smile at the merriment in downtown. Then we'll unwrap the buildings of the little Christmas village, plugging in their bulbs and arranging them on the tree skirt in Under the Tree. Finally, we'll head out to the Inn, where they are getting ready for a week of guests. The mantle is decorated, and from the windows in the ballroom, you can see the ice spreading on the lake in The Innkeeper's Holiday.

When you arrive in Iceland in December, the first thing you notice is the quiet. Snow sits on the hills like a thick blanket, steam rises from hot springs, and the cold air feels crisp but clean. Towns look small against the vast landscape, and most homes glow with warm lights by mid-afternoon. The short daylight makes every window feel like a beacon, and families across the country lean into these warm touches to brighten the long season. Walking through Reykjavik or any of the small towns, you see people with bags of baked goods from local shops, children bundled in thick coats, and families gathering indoors before the evening chill settles in. Icelanders handle winter with simple routines that make the season feel friendly. Nothing here rushes. People enjoy the slow build toward Christmas, with lights, books, treats, and old traditions that help them get through the cold months. December in Iceland feels like an invitation to slow down and enjoy the season alongside everyone else...

Transcript:Da: Vinteren havde kastet sit iskolde slør over den danske landskab, og sneen lå tungt langs vejene.En: Winter had cast its icy veil over the Danish landscape, and the snow lay heavy along the roads.Da: Kasper og Sofie var på en road trip gennem det smukke, men barske danske landskab.En: Kasper and Sofie were on a road trip through the beautiful but harsh Danish countryside.Da: De var på vej til deres familiejulefest på landet, men pludselig var noget vigtigt forsvundet.En: They were on their way to their family Christmas party in the countryside, but suddenly something important was missing.Da: Kasper satte sig op i bilen, som stod stille ved siden af den sneklædte vej.En: Kasper sat up in the car, which stood still by the snow-covered road.Da: Han så ind i sneen, som bevægede sig sidelæns i vindens skarpe kaskader.En: He looked into the snow, which moved sideways in the sharp gusts of the wind.Da: "Mit ur," sagde han lavmælt, og hans stemme rystede, ikke af kulde, men af bekymring.En: "My watch," he said softly, and his voice trembled, not from the cold, but from concern.Da: "Det er væk."En: "It's gone."Da: Sofie så hen på ham, hendes øjne fulde af forståelse, men også med et glimt af deres sædvanlige optimisme.En: Sofie looked at him, her eyes full of understanding, but also with a glint of their usual optimism.Da: "Vi finder det," sagde hun beroligende.En: "We'll find it," she said reassuringly.Da: "Lad os tænke praktisk.En: "Let's think practically.Da: Vi bør spørge folk i landsbyerne."En: We should ask people in the villages."Da: Kasper rystede på hovedet, hans blik fast besluttet.En: Kasper shook his head, his gaze determined.Da: "Vi retracerer vores skridt.En: "We retrace our steps.Da: Vi mister tid, hvis vi gør noget andet."En: We'll lose time if we do anything else."Da: De to sad i stilhed, hver indhyllet i tankerne om, hvordan de bedst skulle finde det savnede ur.En: The two sat in silence, each enveloped in thoughts of how best to find the missing watch.Da: Kasper, dybt sentimental, kunne ikke forestille sig jul uden sin bedstefars gamle armbåndsur.En: Kasper, deeply sentimental, couldn't imagine Christmas without his grandfather's old wristwatch.Da: Det var en tradition, en kæde der bandt ham til fortiden.En: It was a tradition, a chain that tied him to the past.Da: Sofie, dog, mente, at de kunne drage nytte af de lokale indbyggeres viden og hjælpsomhed.En: Sofie, however, believed they could benefit from the local residents' knowledge and helpfulness.Da: "Jeg ved, det betyder meget for dig," sagde hun forsigtigt.En: "I know it means a lot to you," she said cautiously.Da: "Men vi må samarbejde om det her."En: "But we have to work together on this."Da: Så fortsatte de deres rejse, og den lille bil drev gennem nabolandsbyerne, hvert sted deres hjul rullede forbi, pakkede tankerne ind i nye planer.En: So they continued their journey, and the little car drifted through the neighboring villages, each place their wheels rolled past wrapped their thoughts in new plans.Da: Som mørket faldt, og sneen tiltog i styrke, følte de sig lidt modløse.En: As darkness fell, and the snow increased in strength, they felt a bit discouraged.Da: Pludselig så Sofie noget gennem frontruden.En: Suddenly Sofie saw something through the windshield.Da: En lille, hyggelig kro lå forude, oplyst af gyldne lys, der flimrede velkomment.En: A small, cozy inn lay ahead, illuminated by golden lights that flickered welcomingly.Da: De genkendte det straks som kroen, hvor de havde tilbragt natten under sneens første ankomst.En: They recognized it immediately as the inn where they had spent the night during the first snowfall.Da: Med et glimt af ny håb gik de ind.En: With a glimmer of new hope, they went inside.Da: Indenfor var der varmt, en duft af brændende træ fyldte luften, og en venlig kroejer hilste dem med en varm velkomst.En: Inside it was warm, the scent of burning wood filled the air, and a friendly innkeeper greeted them with a warm welcome.Da: Sofie, aldrig bange for en fremmed, gik imod ham og spurgte direkte om uret.En: Sofie, never afraid of a stranger, approached him and asked directly about the watch.Da: Kroejerens smil udvidede sig, og han rakte bag disken og trak en velkendt lille æske frem.En: The innkeeper's smile widened, and he reached behind the counter and pulled out a familiar small box.Da: "Er dette, hvad I leder efter?"En: "Is this what you're looking for?"Da: spurgte han med et glimt i øjet.En: he asked with a glint in his eye.Da: Kasper var målløs, men glæden fyldte hurtigt hans ansigt.En: Kasper was speechless, but joy quickly filled his face.Da: Det var hans bedstefars ur, præcis som han huskede det.En: It was his grandfather's watch, just as he remembered it.Da: "Hvordan fandt du det?"En: "How did you find it?"Da: spurgte han, stadig forvirret.En: he asked, still confused.Da: "En af stuepigerne fandt det nær jeres værelse og tænkte, det var glemt," svarede kroejeren.En: "One of the maids found it near your room and thought it was forgotten," the innkeeper replied.Da: "Vi gemte det, i håbet om, at nogen ville komme for at hente det."En: "We kept it, hoping someone would come to retrieve it."Da: Kasper indså, hvad Sofie havde sagt hele tiden, at man ikke altid kan gøre alting alene.En: Kasper realized what Sofie had been saying all along, that one can't always do everything alone.Da: Han omfavnede hende med et varmt smil.En: He embraced her with a warm smile.Da: "Din idé om at spørge folk var god.En: "Your idea of asking people was good.Da: Jeg skulle have lyttet tidligere."En: I should have listened earlier."Da: Med uret sikkert tilbage om hans håndled følte han en ro, han ikke havde haft hele dagen.En: With the watch securely back on his wrist, he felt a peace he hadn't had all day.Da: De to rejste videre, sikre på at julemagi også fandtes i folks hjerte.En: The two traveled on, assured that Christmas magic also existed in people's hearts.Da: Julenat, da de nåede frem til familien, føltes alle de mistede timer som et fjernt minde.En: On Christmas Eve, when they arrived at the family home, all the lost hours felt like a distant memory.Da: Kasper havde fundet sit ur, men også noget vigtigere: en dybere forståelse af værdien af samarbejde og tillid.En: Kasper had found his watch, but also something more important: a deeper understanding of the value of cooperation and trust.Da: Det sneede stadig udenfor, men indenfor var der varmt og lyst, præcis som hjerterne i julesæsonen.En: It was still snowing outside, but indoors it was warm and bright, just like the hearts during the Christmas season.

In this https://Drive-Radio.com: Extra Mile episode, host John Rush and engineer Luke Cashman (KLZ Radio) dispel common myths and pitfalls about choosing tires, with a focus on winter driving in Colorado. They explain why understanding tire type and vehicle weight is crucial for safety on snowy roads and whether wider tires actually help or hinder performance. John explains how tire width, rubber compound, tread design, and even air pressure directly affect traction, safety, and long-term cost. He compares all-season versus true winter tires and uncovers the hidden differences in “same-brand” tires sold at big-box stores. This episode equips listeners with the knowledge salespeople often don't share. Why do winter tires wear faster—but grip better? When does it make sense to own two full sets of tires? How can downsizing a vehicle still leave you with the same winter traction problems? Using real-world examples, vivid analogies, and decades of hands-on experience, John explains why lighter vehicles often require more aggressive winter tires. He explains why narrow tires outperform wide ones in snow. He warns that skimping on tires is one of the most expensive mistakes drivers make. John also discusses how temperature changes impact tire pressure, fuel economy, and safety. Your dashboard warning light may be trying to tell you something important. Listen to this episode to gain the essential tire knowledge you need to drive smarter and safer this winter—without wasted time or confusion. Get to the core of what matters for your safety, traction, and tire budget.

Transcript:Sv: Snön låg tjock och mjuk över landskapet i Lappland.En: The snow lay thick and soft over the landscape in Lappland.Sv: En rad glittervita tallar kantade vägarna där en buss full av förväntansfulla elever rullade fram.En: A row of glittery white pines lined the roads where a bus full of excited students rolled forward.Sv: Det var en speciell resa – en skolutflykt till snöiga backar för att fira vinterlovet.En: It was a special trip – a school excursion to snowy slopes to celebrate the winter break.Sv: Lars satt vid fönstret och tittade ut med både spänning och oro i blicken.En: Lars sat by the window and looked out with both excitement and anxiety in his eyes.Sv: Han älskade snön, men tanken på att snowboarda framför sina vänner, och framför allt Emma, gjorde honom nervös.En: He loved the snow, but the thought of snowboarding in front of his friends, especially Emma, made him nervous.Sv: Emma var söt och självsäker.En: Emma was sweet and confident.Sv: Hon satt två rader framför Lars, pratade och skrattade tillsammans med Nils.En: She sat two rows in front of Lars, talking and laughing with Nils.Sv: Nils älskade snowboarding och hade redan erfarenhet av de mest utmanande backarna.En: Nils loved snowboarding and already had experience with the most challenging slopes.Sv: Lars kände ett behov av att visa sig modig och duktig som Nils.En: Lars felt a need to show himself as brave and skilled like Nils.Sv: Men visst, han vågade knappt erkänna för sig själv att han var mer redo för nybörjarbackarna.En: But surely, he barely dared to admit to himself that he was more ready for the beginner slopes.Sv: Bussen stannade vid stugorna där eleverna skulle bo.En: The bus stopped at the cabins where the students would stay.Sv: Karl och Anna tog emot dem med varma leenden, båda lärare och ansvariga för resan.En: Karl and Anna welcomed them with warm smiles, both teachers responsible for the trip.Sv: Snart stod alla i sina snökläder, redo att ge sig av.En: Soon everyone stood in their snow gear, ready to set off.Sv: "Vilken backe ska vi börja med?"En: "Which slope should we start with?"Sv: frågade Emma, vänd mot Lars och Nils.En: asked Emma, turning to Lars and Nils.Sv: Nils log självsäkert, "Jag tänkte ta den svarta pist med en gång.En: Nils smiled confidently, "I was thinking of taking the black piste right away.Sv: Du då, Lars?En: What about you, Lars?Sv: Ska du med?"En: Are you coming?"Sv: Lars tog ett djupt andetag.En: Lars took a deep breath.Sv: "Visst, jag hänger på," svarade han, hoppades att hans osäkerhet inte syntes.En: "Sure, I'll join," he replied, hoping his insecurity didn't show.Sv: De började åka ner för den svåraste backen.En: They started down the most challenging slope.Sv: Snön piskade i ansiktet och vinden hulkade runt dem.En: The snow whipped at their faces and the wind howled around them.Sv: Plötsligt sänkte sig en snöstorm över dem, vilket gjorde sikten dålig.En: Suddenly, a snowstorm descended upon them, making visibility poor.Sv: Emma ropade, "Lars, är du okej?"En: Emma shouted, "Lars, are you okay?"Sv: Handvid knät, Lars lutade sig framåt och kämpade med balansen på det svåra underlaget.En: Hand to his knee, Lars leaned forward, struggling with his balance on the difficult surface.Sv: "Ja, det är bara lite svårt att se," ljög han.En: "Yeah, it's just a bit hard to see," he lied.Sv: Plötsligt, ett ögonblick av panik.En: Suddenly, a moment of panic.Sv: Emma förlorade balansen och stupade framåt i snön.En: Emma lost her balance and tumbled forward into the snow.Sv: Lars reagerade instinktivt, stannade och hjälpte henne upp.En: Lars reacted instinctively, stopped, and helped her up.Sv: "Tack, Lars," sa hon och såg på honom med tacksamhet.En: "Thanks, Lars," she said, looking at him with gratitude.Sv: Stormen gjorde backen ännu mer förrädiskt.En: The storm made the slope even more treacherous.Sv: Men trots sina egna rädslor ledde Lars dem sakta och metodiskt neråt, var mer uppmärksam på alla detaljer längs vägen.En: But despite his own fears, Lars led them slowly and methodically downward, more attentive to every detail along the way.Sv: Efter vad som kändes som en evighet nådde de äntligen platsen där de andra eleverna samlats, säkert men avkylda.En: After what felt like an eternity, they finally reached the spot where the other students had gathered, safe but chilled.Sv: Nils kom rusande mot dem med en blick av lättnad.En: Nils came rushing toward them with a look of relief.Sv: "Jag var orolig att ni råkat illa ut.En: "I was worried you might have gotten into trouble.Sv: Bra jobbat, Lars!"En: Good job, Lars!"Sv: Med en nyfunnen säkerhet i sig själv log Lars tillbaka.En: With newfound confidence in himself, Lars smiled back.Sv: "Tack, vi klarade det tillsammans."En: "Thanks, we made it together."Sv: När kvällen sänkte sig satt Lars och Emma tillsammans inomhus, blickande ut mot snöflingorna som föll tyst.En: As evening fell, Lars and Emma sat together indoors, gazing out at the snowflakes falling silently.Sv: Det var ingen återstå för att imponera, ingen grund för bekymmer kvar.En: There was no need left to impress, no basis for worry remaining.Sv: Lars hade bevisat för sig själv det som verkligen betydde något.En: Lars had proven to himself what really mattered.Sv: Emma såg på honom och log.En: Emma looked at him and smiled.Sv: "Du är modig, Lars," sa hon med värme.En: "You're brave, Lars," she said warmly.Sv: Där och då, i det rofyllda vintermörkret, förstod Lars att detta var början på en vänskap och att han inte behövde vara något annat än sig själv.En: There and then, in the tranquil winter darkness, Lars understood that this was the beginning of a friendship and that he didn't need to be anything other than himself.

Elias Makos starts off the week with Jimmy Zoubris, Montreal businessman, longtime activist and former special advisor to Valerie Plante, and Jonathan Kalles, Vice President at McMillan Vantage, a national public affairs firm, and former advisor to Prime Minister Justin Trudeau. Fifteen people, including a 10-year-old girl, were killed in a shooting targeting the country's Jewish community at a Hanukkah event on Sydney's Bondi Beach over the weekend. In response, Montreal Mayor Soraya Martinez Ferrada has asked police to increase security after the attack, and the SPVM say they will remain on heightened alert. A group of language experts says the federal government is sending the wrong signal by slipping into British spelling in official documents — including the 2025 budget. In a letter to Prime Minister Mark Carney, they argue that if Canada wants to project confidence and identity, it should start by using its own English on the page. Snow removal operations for the first big snow dump of the year are wrapping up, and one thing has become clear under the new administration: Bike paths are not the priority anymore. The city going so far as to ask cyclists to abandon their bikes and take public transit.

"하지만 진심으로 하면 괜찮을 것 같아요."En: "Honestly, I thought this was a bit forced," Yuna said. "But if we do it sincerely, I think it will be okay."Ko: 시간이 흘러, 우리는 경복궁 안쪽으로 걸어갔다.En: Time passed, and we walked further inside Gyeongbokgung.Ko: 그때 우리 귀에 전통 음악 소리가 들렸다.En: Then we heard the sound of traditional music.Ko: 겨울 소리, 한복을 입은 예술가들이 북을 치고 있었다.En: It was a winter sound, with artists dressed in hanbok playing drums.Ko: 우리는 그앞에 모였다.En: We gathered in front of them.Ko: 음악은 우리의 마음을 녹였다.En: The music melted our hearts.Ko: 나는 팀원들에게 물었다. "각자 내년의 목표가 무엇인가요?" 민준이 자신을 돌아봤다.En: I asked the team members, "What are your goals for next year?"

Winter settles early in Finland. Snow drifts across roads and fields, covering the ground in a thick white layer that stays for months. Days grow short, with the sun rising late and setting early, sometimes leaving only a faint glow in the sky before darkness returns. These long nights shape the pace of December. Finnish families respond to the darkness by filling their homes with light, warmth, and steady traditions that guide them through the season. As December begins, homes across Finland start preparing for Christmas in simple, peaceful ways. People place candles or small lamps in windows so the warm glow shines into the snow-covered streets. Children open the first doors of their Advent calendars. Parents plan meals and gatherings for the days ahead. Even the coldest towns begin to feel warm inside as families settle into routines that have been part of Finnish life for generations. The month is shaped by quiet evenings indoors, warm kitchens, and small traditions that give December a steady rhythm. In Finland, Christmas is not a single event. It's a long stretch of winter comfort, built slowly one day at a time...
