Podcasts about summer fun

It's Monday and Lauretta has her mind on all sorts of things this summer. She gives a shout out of congratulations to the Vance family on the new addition to their family, baby boy Alec.  She asks the prayer warriors to lift up the recently killed service members and their families and reminds all the prayer warriors to keep at it as the world needs peace. Lauretta could not do the show today without mentioning the World Cup-what excitement, the game, the players, the coaches, the fans and the delight of foreigners reveling in the USA!  While promoting summer fun and relaxation to all, Lauretta discusses her summer trip to Rome, her love of the beach and pool and her summer reading.  She makes it a point to promote reading over the summer as she encourages you to include reading selections that break out the scriptures in such a way to promote a stronger relationship with God.  Lauretta then takes a look at the Saints of this week, the beauty of their lives and contributions. She ends announcing the upcoming Encounter Retreat-Summer Intensive on August 6th-8th at St. James Catholic Church in Arlington Heights.

While summer is synonymous with blockbuster movies, a trip to the theater isn't limited to sitting in a multiplex. For those seeking something different, drive-in theaters — though not as prevalent as they once were — are still thriving in parts of the country and offer a unique movie-watching experience. In this episode, co-hosts Terry Lipshetz and Bruce Miller recall their experiences at drive-in theaters. Terry reminisces about visiting a New Jersey drive-in during its final season before it became a multiplex, and expresses excitement for the return of the Highway 18 Outdoor Theatre near his home in Jefferson, Wisconsin. Bruce reflects on attending drive-ins as a teenager. About the show Streamed & Screened is a podcast about movies and TV hosted by Bruce Miller, a longtime entertainment reporter who is the retired editor of the Sioux City Journal in Iowa and Terry Lipshetz, managing editor of the National Newsroom for Lee Enterprises based in Madison, Wisconsin. The show was named Best Podcast in the 2025 Iowa Better Newspaper Contest. Theme music Thunder City by Lunareh, used under license from Soundstripe. YouTube clearance: FV694ULMCJQDG0IY

On June 30 Tuesday Topics will once more take to the internet waves with what has become a commonplace now. We will have one last scholarship winner and will then turn things over to the team and those present to talk with us about what they are reading during the Summer and what plans are being made as well. We decided that we didn't want to choose a weighty topic as June ended or as our penultimate show before our break for convention season. Instead we decided to explore a couple of Summer characteristics. First of all we know that folks who come to Tuesday Topics read during the Summer. Do you choose a special kind of book for Summer reading? Do you read more or less during the Summer? Can you tell us about a book you are reading now that you think others should read? We also want to get a sense of what your Summer is looking like! Are you going on vacation? Are there games or concerts that are on your schedule? Is the ACB convention at the center of your Summer planning? Our team will tell you about our Summer and then we will ask those of you who are present to tell us about yours. We don't want to know what you aren't doing so be prepared to share your plans and books! Find out more at https://acb-tuesday-topics.pinecast.co

Summer is a busy time on Wisconsin farms. While we're between planting and harvest, farmers are checking fields, monitoring crops, maintaining equipment, and preparing for the months ahead. Unfortunately, this time of year also brings safety risks that can have devastating consequences. Pam Jahnke visits with Chris Schlechta, Safety and Loss Control Manager for Rural Mutual Insurance. Together they have a quick conversation on the things we all look forward to in the summer. Relax, grill out, ride and ATV/UTV - just have fun. Schlechta is all for fun - but it comes with safety as one of the responsibilities. Schlechta says without thought and supervision, things like ATV/UTV's, bonfires, boating - can all turn "fun" into an incident you never wanted to have happen. Around the farm, thinking through risks and making sure family, friends, visitors and yourself stay safe has to be a priority. Are signs posted for guests? Do you have your first aid kit and fire extinguisher available and clearly visible? Those things don't take long to check, but can make a massive difference in an incidents outcome. Schlechta reminds anyone that wants to work through a safety review, or needs to have some information to help execute a safety plan, to head over to the Rural Mutual website. There you'll find a complete toolbox with manuals, lists and resources to do just that.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

SummaryAre we accidentally teaching our kids that fun is something you buy, schedule, or constantly optimize? In this episode, Clayton, Chris, and Amy explore the pressure many parents feel to create memorable experiences, especially during the summer months, and how that pressure can shape the way our children think about fun, boredom, and togetherness. The conversation examines the value of unstructured time, the role boredom plays in creativity and growth, and why some of our most meaningful family memories come from simply being together rather than consuming the next great experience.TakeawaysWhen every moment has to be entertaining, kids can begin to expect fun instead of learning how to create it.Boredom is not a parenting failure—it often becomes the starting point for creativity, imagination, and independence.Constantly escalating experiences can unintentionally teach children that ordinary life is never enough.Some of the best family memories are formed through presence and connection, not expensive activities or perfectly planned events.Parents don't have to carry the burden of making every summer day unforgettable.Chapters00:00 — Is Fun Something You Buy?05:35 — The Pressure to Create Memorable Experiences11:12 — Why Boredom Is Actually Good for Kids16:54 — Expectations, Consumption, and Family Culture24:08 — Teaching Kids to Create Their Own Fun31:08 — What We're Changing After This Conversation

"Great idea!" she exclaimed enthusiastically.He: בני וציפורה קישטו את המקום בצבעים חיים.En: Benny and Tzipora decorated the place with vibrant colors.He: הם פרסו מגבות צבעוניות על הדשא והניחו כמה שולחנות פיקניק.En: They spread colorful towels on the grass and set up a few picnic tables.He: בכל פינה עמד מתז, משפריץ מים ויוצר אווירה מפתיעה.En: In every corner stood a sprinkler, spraying water and creating a surprising atmosphere.He: כאשר הכל היה מוכן, נדב הגיע למקום.En: When everything was ready, Nadav arrived.He: הוא הביט סביב בעיניים פעורות כדי לראות את הבריכה היבשה, ואז צחק כשהבחין בציפורה ובני רוקדים מתחת לזרמי המים הקטנים.En: He looked around with wide eyes to see the dry pool, then laughed when he noticed Tzipora and Benny dancing under the small streams of water.He: "מה זה?!" צעק נדב, נהנה מההפתעה.En: "What is this?!"

The Downtown Driggs Association offers free summer fun through three big events: concert series, a plein air festival and Shakespeare in the Park.

Bright pop hooks, vocal house pressure, and nonstop crossover club motion run through this entire set. Stay A Little Longer opens with uplifting energy before WHERE IS MY HUSBAND?! pushes things sharper and darker into late-night territory through Guetta and Hypaton. From there, the mix moves between disco textures, emotional vocals, and rolling dancefloor momentum with Lush Life, Mystical Magical, Cruel Summer, and Goosebumps keeping the energy constantly shifting without slowing down. The second half leans deeper into afterhours emotion and late-night flow through Falling before the final mashup of I Need You to Know and COULD BE WRONG closes the set somewhere between tension, release, and vocal-driven club escape.
