Thank you again for your continued support—we can’t wait to hear from you! https://tinyurl.com/322k4xau *Submissions closing 11/7 at 1 EST When life feels heavy and the days blur into exhaustion, it’s easy to wonder if true rest is even possible. As our daily prayer and devotional remind us, whether it’s from illness, emotional pain, grief, or stress, weariness can weigh on our hearts and bodies. In this honest reflection, Vivian Bricker shares how her struggle with chronic illness has taught her to lean on Jesus’ promise in Matthew 11:28–30 — that He offers real rest for the weary. God’s invitation to “come” is both gentle and personal. He doesn’t demand strength from us; instead, He offers His own. In our weakness, He promises peace. When we take His yoke upon us — choosing to walk in step with Him — we discover that His way is not burdensome but freeing. The world tells us to carry everything ourselves; Jesus tells us to hand it all over to Him. No matter what’s weighing you down today — pain, uncertainty, loss, or loneliness — remember this: you are not alone, and you are not forgotten. Christ invites you to exchange your burdens for His peace and your exhaustion for His rest. Today's Bible Reading:“Come to me, all you who are weary and burdened, and I will give you rest. Take my yoke upon you and learn from me, for I am gentle and humble in heart, and you will find rest for your souls. For my yoke is easy and my burden is light.” – Matthew 11:28–30

Thank you again for your continued support—we can’t wait to hear from you! https://tinyurl.com/322k4xau Loneliness can sting deeply — especially when it comes from people we expected to care. In our daily prayer and devotional, we think about how, sometimes, friends don’t check in, family seems distant, or those you serve overlook your heart entirely. It’s easy to wonder: Is it me? Am I expecting too much? Do they even care at all? In this vulnerable reflection, Kelly Balarie reminds us that Jesus Himself knew what it was like to feel unseen and misunderstood. Even His own brothers didn’t believe in Him (John 7:5). Yet, Jesus never wavered in His confidence of the Father’s love. He trusted that even when people misunderstood or dismissed Him, God still cared deeply and had a perfect plan. When others seem indifferent, it doesn’t mean we’re unloved or forgotten. God’s care is steadfast — not dependent on human approval or attention. He sees the pain that others overlook and tenderly calls us to fix our eyes on Him. Let’s also use these moments to examine our hearts. Are we seeking people’s validation more than God’s affirmation? When our worth is rooted in His care, the emptiness caused by others’ neglect begins to fade. The same God who cared for Jesus cares for you — fully, faithfully, and forever. Today's Bible Reading:“For even his own brothers did not believe in him.” – John 7:5, NIV

Thank you again for your continued support—we can’t wait to hear from you! https://tinyurl.com/322k4xau God never intended for us to do life alone. As our daily prayer and reflection remind us, from the beginning of creation, He designed us for community — with Him and with one another. Yet, for many believers, being part of a church family isn’t always easy. Differences in opinion, leadership conflicts, or even personal wounds can cause deep pain within the very place meant to nurture our faith. In this compassionate reflection, Laura Bailey reminds us that while church hurt is real and painful, Christian community is still God’s plan for His people. Just as Adam was not meant to be alone, neither are we. Throughout Scripture, we see how God uses relationships — even messy ones — to shape us, refine us, and reveal His grace. From the early church in Acts to the disciples who followed Jesus, believers have always grown stronger in community. Though it can be hard to stay when relationships feel strained, the call of Christ is not to walk away but to lean in — to forgive, to reconcile, and to remain united under His love. Today's Bible Reading:“The Lord God said, ‘It is not good for the man to be alone. I will make a helper suitable for him.’” – Genesis 2:18, NIV

Thank you again for your continued support—we can’t wait to hear from you! https://tinyurl.com/322k4xau Have you ever been so busy doing good things that you forgot to simply be with God? In this honest and relatable daily prayer and reflection, Rachel Wojo, host of Untangling Prayer, shares how the busyness of life can leave our hearts exhausted, even when everything looks “successful” from the outside. Between work, family, and endless responsibilities, it’s easy to glorify productivity — but God calls us to something better: rest in Him. Psalm 23 paints a picture of a gentle Shepherd who doesn’t drag His sheep to rest — He lovingly leads them. The green pastures and still waters aren’t luxuries for the lucky few; they’re divine invitations for every believer. God knows when our souls are running on empty, and He stands ready to restore us if we’ll only stop striving and follow His lead. Rest isn’t a reward for finishing the work — it’s the foundation for doing the work well. When we allow God to refresh our spirits, we love better, live wiser, and serve from a place of overflow rather than exhaustion. Today, take time to breathe deeply and let your Shepherd lead you to the peace He’s already prepared. Today's Bible Reading:“He makes me lie down in green pastures, he leads me beside quiet waters, he refreshes my soul.” – Psalm 23:1–3

Post Malone BioSnap a weekly updated Biography.Post Malone's past few days have been a masterclass in both star power and Southern hospitality and if you have been paying attention you know he has proven himself to be the rare sort of celebrity that headlines not just for music but for generosity and genuine fun. According to both Whiskey Riff and American Songwriter, Post headlined the 2025 Cattle Baron's Ball at Southfork Ranch this past weekend, drawing thousands of fans and supporting the American Cancer Society. Fresh off that concert, he was spotted at Flips Patio Grill in Grapevine, Texas, settling in to watch his beloved Dallas Cowboys play the Denver Broncos. Not even the Cowboys' 44-24 loss could sour his mood. Throughout the night Post picked up the tab for two tables besides his own and left a $1000 tip on each bill, creating a wave of appreciation among the staff and guests, some of whom quickly shared the moment on social media. It is not the first time Post Malone has made headlines for generosity—just last Christmas, he famously tipped a Houston bartender $20,000, and earlier this year he left a hefty tip at a Pizza Hut in Utah for opening up early. The social media posts from Flips Patio Grill expressed gratitude for his kindness and the fun atmosphere he brought to the local crowd.Online, Post Malone's viral moment at Flips went wide with fans calling him “a treasure,” as reported in Parade, further cementing his reputation as one of the most gracious figures in entertainment. On the business side, rumors are swirling from K95 Tulsa and MySanAntonio that Post Malone is likely to be the Dallas Cowboys' headliner for their annual Thanksgiving Day halftime show. The speculation is fueled by teaser videos and the timing of his passionate appearances in Texas, though as of now, official confirmation is still pending. Industry insiders are betting this potential performance could mark another major milestone for him, especially given how seamless his transition from hip-hop to country has been since his hit record F-1 Trillion last year.In terms of public appearances, just days ago Posty was spotted ringside at WWE Saturday Night's Main Event in Salt Lake City, sharing the front row spotlight alongside Pauly Shore, Tony Hinchcliffe, and Gabriel Luna. WWE gave each celebrity a featured on-screen graphic, and social media lit up as fans debated which surprise guest brought the most hype—proof that Post Malone's reach crosses far beyond music into all corners of pop culture.On Bluesky social, the Post Malone fan scene remains active, though most mentions lean playful, and nothing substantial about the past few days has gone viral there yet. Summing up these recent developments, the biggest long-term biographical impact is the steady evolution of Post's public persona—a chart-topping artist who matches his musical success with authentic generosity, making him not just a star but a cultural phenomenon whose every appearance is loaded with the potential for viral headlines, good deeds, and memorable moments. No credible controversies or negative news have surfaced, making this a streak of positivity that even seasoned industry veterans rarely maintain for this long.Get the best deals https://amzn.to/3ODvOtaThis content was created in partnership and with the help of Artificial Intelligence AI

Thank you again for your continued support—we can’t wait to hear from you! https://tinyurl.com/322k4xau There are times in our walk with God when His presence feels near — when prayer flows easily, Scripture feels alive, and worship fills our hearts with joy. But, as our daily prayer and devotional remind us, then come the harder seasons — the dry, weary days when God seems silent, and our hearts ache with loneliness. In today’s reflection, Sophia Bricker reminds us that even when God feels far away, His presence has never left us. Scripture gives voice to this struggle through the psalmists, Job, Jeremiah, and even Jesus Himself, who cried out, “My God, my God, why have You forsaken me?” (Psalm 22:1; Matthew 27:46). These moments of spiritual dryness are not signs of abandonment — they are invitations to deeper faith. When we face sorrow, sin, or suffering, we may feel distant from God, but faith reminds us that He remains close — “a friend who sticks closer than a brother” (Proverbs 18:24). The Lord has promised to be with us always, even to the end of the age. His love does not depend on our emotions; it is steadfast, eternal, and unchanging. When God feels far, hold fast to what is true: He is near, and He will never leave you. Bible Reading:“And surely I am with you always, to the very end of the age.” – Matthew 28:20, NIV Takeaway Truths: Feeling distant from God doesn’t mean He has left us — His presence is constant. Spiritual dryness is often an invitation to grow deeper in faith. God’s promises are greater than our emotions; His love never changes.

Jack Benny Show 1941-11-23 422-Thanksgiving Day Dinner

Neil and Jorge are working on Thanksgiving Day. They are joined by Adam, and Joey. Lots of bits, and who will feed them today?

(This podcast was previously recorded and published on December 10, 2020)   Jesus Ministries, Joan Boney  ...    Philippians 4:6-7   Be careful for nothing; but in every thing by prayer and supplication with thanksgiving let your requests be made known unto God.   7 And the peace of God, which passeth all understanding, shall keep your hearts and minds through Christ Jesus.   *****   (Comments by Joan Boney)   I had a rather serious dental appointment scheduled on November 30, 2020.   I did exactly what it says to do in Philippians 4:6 ... The appointment was scheduled about 2 months earlier.  I knew there was a possibility of a root canal.   Every time during those weeks approaching the appointment when I thought of the appointment, I prayed, asking God for help.  I asked God to help the dentist in the decisions that she made, and that she not do more to me than needed. I asked God to keep me from being hurt.  I even prayed that I not be afraid.   I had asked God to help me to physically get ready for the appointment, to get my hair washed and get shower.  (I'm 83 and this can be difficult.)   On the Saturday before the appointment, all of a sudden I asked Pam if we could go get my hair cut that afternoon.  This is one of those non-appointment shops we go to.  But because of the rise in Coronavirus we had not been for about 3 months.  There was no difficulty at all in getting into the shop.  It was 2 days after the American holiday, Thanksgiving Day.  The hair operator said they had been very busy but that day was "slow".  I was so glad.  I had asked God not to let either Pam or myself get Coronavirus.   The day of the dental appointment, I was easily able to take shower.   It took two hours for dentist to do the work on my tooth.  I felt no pain at all, neither during the procedure nor after.  Dentist said she decided to remove the crown and drill out the decay and not do a root canal.  She said, "Let's try this first."   I thanked God for answering each part of my prayer.   And I was "careful for nothing" because I had prayed according to Philippians 4:6.   It is so important for each of us to live a "carefree" life through God day by day, second by second.   I had even prayed if there was any reason I should cancel that appointment that God would show me.  But no reason manifest itself so I went on to the appointment.   Even after all the dental work was done, there was not one second of pain or discomfort.   "Let your requests be made known unto God."

(00:00:00) CeaseFirePA recently hosted a discussion titled “Most Gun Deaths Are Suicide—It’s Time to Act”, drawing attention to a critical but often overlooked aspect of gun violence. (00:22:21) As the temperatures dip and leaves begin to fall, gardeners have plenty to think about beyond raking. Horticulturist Erica Jo Schaefer joined The Spark to share her expertise on preparing gardens for winter and ensuring a vibrant spring. “The bulbs should be being planted right now and you can plant as long as the ground isn’t frozen. You could even be planting bulbs on Thanksgiving Day,” Erica explained. For Pennsylvania gardeners, she recommends snowdrops, crocus, daffodils, and tulips—while noting that deer preferences can influence what you plant.Support WITF: https://www.witf.org/support/give-now/See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

World War II had the effect of making Fort Huachuca into a a central gathering place for Black men and women serving in the U.S. Army. Their experience ran parallel with their white counterparts, except for a notable undercurrent of segregation, prejudice, and racism. And those same undercurrents would result in a minor war breaking out on the streets of Phoenix on Thanksgiving Day 1942.

In this cozy autumn episode of The Insomnia Project, hosts Amanda and Marco settle in for a soothing chat about all things seasonal and nostalgic.

1. Week 6 Takeaways-DKrom: Chiefs offense looks better than they have in ages*....and they have a major upgrade on the way in Rashee Rice -Hal: Can't wait until the trade deadline because everything's so jumbled up right now2. Week 6 Honors-GOAT of the Week (DKrom: Dave Canales, Hal: Justin Herbert)-Dunce of the Week (DKrom: Aaron Glenn, Hal: Jerry Jones)3. On a scale of 1-10 (1 being no panic at all, 10 being hide the kids), how panicked are you that the impatience and impulsive decision making of Titans ownership will ruin the promising talent that is Cam Ward? Also, each of the last four QB's selected at first overall (Trevor Lawrence, Bryce Young, Caleb Williams, and now Cam Ward) have had their head coach fired during their rookie campaign. On that same scale of 1-10, how alarming of a trend is this becoming for young QB's? 4. According to NFL insider Benjamin Allbright, a big name to watch for the Titans HC vacancy is Giants OC Mike Kafka. Keep in mind, Kafka worked together with Mike Borgonzi in Kansas City, where he was the QB's coach and had a very influential role in the development of Patrick Mahomes. And as these past three weeks have shown, he has done an excellent job with Jaxson Dart thus far. How good of a hire would Mike Kafka be? 5. Truth or Exaggeration (Division Race Edition)-There is a path for the Giants to win the NFC East-The NFC West will be a two-team race between the Rams and the Seahawks-The Falcons are a legit threat to the Bucs in the NFC South-The winner of the Packers/Lions game on Thanksgiving Day will win the NFC North-The Patriots should be the betting favorite to win the AFC East-If their offense continues the improvement it has shown the last two games, the Texans will leapfrog the Colts and Jaguars to win the AFC South -Thanks to their red hot offense, Bo Nix's sophomore struggles and the Chargers injury issues, the Chiefs will win their 10th consecutive AFC West title -The Ravens will rally back from their four-game deficit and win their third consecutive AFC North title 6. Week 7 Game Picks-Lock of the Week (DKrom: Chiefs over Raiders, Hal: Panthers over Jets)-Upset Special (DKrom: Saints over Bears, Hal: Bucs over Lions)-Steelers at Bengals-Rams at Jaguars-Dolphins at Browns-Patriots at Titans -Eagles at Vikings-Colts at Chargers-Giants at Broncos-Packers at Cardinals-Commanders at Cowboys-Falcons at 49ers-Texans at Seahawks7. Bold Predictions-DKrom: Giants sack Bo Nix 10 times, 7 of them by Abdul Carter (including a strip-sack fumble late in the fourth quarter to set up the game-winning FG)-Hal: Baker Mayfield throws 5 TD to 5 different people, and leads his team to another last-second game-winning FG8. Challenge Flags-DKrom: Chiefs and other teams favored by a TD or more...DO NOT PLAY DOWN TO YOUR COMPETITION!!!!-Hal: Cam Ward...keep your chin up and look to Drake Maye and Caleb Williams as an example of where you could be!!!!

The incredible, untold true story of the 1952 Dallas Texans-the most dysfunctional team in the craziest season in NFL history.Rattlesnakes on the practice field, barroom brawls between teammates, bounced checks, paternity suits, house bombings by the Ku Klux Klan, stadium fields covered in circus-elephant dung, one-legged trainers, humiliating defeats, miraculous wins, All-Pro quarterbacks getting drunk at halftime, strip poker with groupies, and even a future Hall of Fame coach stealing a cab.Nearly lost to history, this singular season in the most football-mad region of the world is a kaleidoscope of every larger-than-life, fictionalized Texas football folktale ever written or filmed, with one incredible twist: it's all true. Over a fascinating, ten-month rollercoaster ride in 1952, in the waning Wild West days of the NFL, before television turned the game into a corporation, the forgotten Dallas Texans would go down in history as one of the worst (and, wildest) teams of all time and the last NFL team to fail. But not before defying the Jim Crow South, pulling off a Thanksgiving Day miracle against George Halas's famed Chicago Bears and then celebrating with an even more infamous bender that would make Jimmy Johnson's Dallas Cowboys blush. A year later, the NFL buried all traces of the most loveable, dysfunctional, entertaining team in history by secretly rebranding the train wreck Texans as the wholesome, all-American Baltimore Colts, the team that would go on to save pro football.A Big Mess in Texas tells the Texans' tale with all the humor, drama, game action, colorful characters, villains, world-class athletes, civil rights trailblazers, and incredible plot twists of that legendary season.Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/arroe-collins-unplugged-totally-uncut--994165/support.

Thanksgiving Day service Scripture: 1 Peter 1:1-12 Text: 1 Peter 1:1-12 Theme: Remember, take comfort, and give thanks for your eternal inheritance.

Every autumn, as the leaves turn and the air grows crisp in Virginia's Shenandoah County, a unique transformation takes place inside a cavernous warehouse usually reserved for the nation's grandest parade floats. This is the home of American Fright Night, a one-of-a-kind haunted house experience that draws thrill-seekers and families alike. In this episode of “Tourism Tuesday,” host Janet Michael, joined by co-host Kary Haun, sat down with Ashley Proctor, Director of Events and Marketing for Shenandoah Caverns, and Bo Wills, the creative and maintenance director behind Fright Night, to pull back the curtain on this beloved local tradition. The conversation opens with a sense of excitement and nostalgia, as Kary recalls the annual anticipation for Fright Night and the unmistakable signs of fall in Shenandoah County—pumpkin spice, local potato chips, and the buzz of community events. But it's the transformation of the American Celebration on Parade building that truly captures the imagination. Bo and Ashley share how the idea for Fright Night was born from a desire to do something special with the space, which houses massive parade floats from the Rose Bowl and Thanksgiving Day parades. When the opportunity finally arose, the team leapt into action, designing a haunted house that is as creative as it is immersive. Building Fright Night is no small feat. The team has just a month to construct elaborate sets, design new scares, and coordinate a growing cast of volunteer actors—many of them local students eager to unleash their inner ghouls. Bo describes the joy of seeing volunteers, often quiet in everyday life, come alive in costume, delighting in the freedom to scare and entertain. The event is constantly evolving, with new scenes and layouts each year to keep even returning guests on their toes. Accessibility is a point of pride for the organizers. With 40,000 square feet to work with, the team ensures that 90% of the haunt is wheelchair accessible, a rarity among haunted attractions. Special “scare-free” nights and family-friendly events like trunk-or-treat make Fright Night welcoming for all ages and comfort levels. Ashley details the logistics of ticketing, group sizes, and the careful pacing that allows each group to enjoy the experience at their own speed—whether they're sprinting through in terror or savoring every detail. Beyond Fright Night, the conversation highlights the rich tapestry of events and attractions that make Shenandoah County a destination in its own right. From the historic caverns and the whimsical parade float museum to wine festivals, farm-to-table dinners, and live theater, there truly is something for everyone. Kary reflects on the county's unique blend of rural charm and vibrant community spirit, encouraging listeners to explore all that the region has to offer. As the episode draws to a close, the sense of community and creativity that fuels American Fright Night is unmistakable. It's more than just a haunted house—it's a celebration of local talent, tradition, and the joy of coming together to create something unforgettable. Whether you're a fan of jump scares or prefer your autumn festivities a little tamer, Shenandoah County's Fright Night promises a memorable experience for all.

Peabody Award-nominated writer and Episode 389 guest David Fleming (“Breaker Boys: The NFL's Greatest Team and the Stolen 1925 Championship”) returns to the show to unpack one of the National Football League's most chaotic and fascinating chapters: the disaster of the 1952 Dallas Texans. In his new book,"A Big Mess in Texas: The Miraculous, Disastrous 1952 Dallas Texans and the Craziest Untold Story in NFL History," Fleming chronicles the league's first attempt to plant a professional football franchise in football-crazed Texas — a venture so ill-fated that the NFL reportedly still disavows it. Fleming guides us through the Texans' brief and turbulent existence, from their origins as the financially struggling New York Yanks to their relocation to Dallas under the ambitious but ill-prepared Miller brothers. We explore a 1–11 season riddled with logistical nightmares and meet the team's unforgettable characters: future Hall of Famers Art Donovan and Gino Marchetti, unsung heroes like Buddy Young and George Taliaferro, and a broader cast of characters who fought to keep the team afloat despite unrelenting chaos. You'll hear about rattlesnakes on the practice field, barroom brawls, bounced checks, paternity suits, one-legged trainers, humiliating defeats, a miraculous victory, strip poker with groupies, and even a future Hall of Fame coach stealing a cab. Amidst the madness, Fleming spotlights the Texans' lone shining moment: a Thanksgiving Day "home game" upset over the Chicago Bears at the Rubber Bowl in Akron, Ohio — an improbable triumph that perfectly captured the team's fleeting flashes of brilliance against a constant tide of organizational mayhem.

It was Thanksgiving Day, 2012, in the small town of Little Falls, Minnesota. That morning, cousins Nick Brady and Haile Kifer set out to visit family for dinner. But when they never showed up, their loved ones were thrown into a desperate search. By the next day, their worst fears were confirmed—Nick and Haile had been killed inside the home of 64-year-old Byron Smith. At first glance, it looked like a tragic but lawful case of self-defense under Minnesota's Castle Doctrine. Smith claimed he'd been terrorized by repeated break-ins and had finally snapped when the teens entered his home. But the investigation revealed something far more chilling: Byron Smith hadn't been caught off guard. He'd been lying in wait. This week, we dive into the audio recordings that changed everything, the trial that divided the community, and the chilling words Smith used to justify what he'd done, which leaves us with the question: was this self defense… or murder?

9-9-25 Tonight we're talking with Kris and Karen Pruitt with Kold Prairie Mead in Elizabeth, Colorado. They opened their meadery in 2022 and have been out there kicking it! Kristopher Pruitt's journey into meadmaking began in 2017 with an initial desire to become a beekeeper. Within a short time, his curiosity led him to explore mead, and on Thanksgiving Day that year, he and his wife, Karen, brewed their first experimental batches. Those early efforts quickly earned recognition, beginning with the Mead Free or Die competition and eventually included two Mazer Cups, Best of Show at the Domras Cup, and multiple medals at the Mead Madness Cup in Poland, to name a few of their homebrew accomplishments. In 2022, the Pruitts founded Kold Prairie Mead in Elizabeth, Colorado. The meadery officially launched in 2025, with Kris stepping into the role full-time. Together, they also run 2BeeKPers, their small honey business. Both ventures reflect their shared passion for beekeeping, craftsmanship, and community engagement. Kold Prairie Mead has steadily grown its presence through festivals, tasting events, and partnerships with select liquor stores and brew pubs. Certified through both the MJP and BJCP programs, Kris has judged and competed in mead competitions across the U.S. and internationally, including serving as Best of Show judge for the 2023 Mead Madness Cup commercial division. Driven by a love for craftsmanship and community, Kris values the camaraderie of judging and the shared knowledge that connects meadmakers worldwide. When not immersed in mead, Kris and Karen enjoy traveling—whether discovering new experiences in Europe or exploring closer to home in their 5th-wheel camper—and caring for the bees, chickens, and cats on their property.

Over a span of 39 years, twenty-three aliases, twenty-eight arrests in twenty cities, and a dozen imprisonments, Robert Spears had lived a con artists' life of unparalleled adventure and intrigue. This is his story.Shortly before Thanksgiving Day in 1959, a plane exploded in mid-air, killing all forty-two passengers and crew and leaving scattered debris and bodies across the otherwise tranquil Gulf waters. Listed on the manifest was Dr. Robert Spears—once the highly regarded president of the Texas Naturopathic Association.Father of two small children with a lovely, society-minded wife and an elegant home in an exclusive neighborhood, it was a monumental tragedy for them, as it was for all the souls lost that day. Less than two months later, Robert Spears miraculously “rose from the dead” in Phoenix where he was promptly arrested. Headlining newspapers nationwide— “Man Downs Airliner to Fake Death”—Spears was discovered to have cleverly switched identities, persuaded his friend, Al Taylor, to fly with his plane ticket, asked him to carry “a package” on board and drove away in his friend's car with his wallet and driver's license.As the FBI began to investigate, they uncovered a stunning, mind-bending tale of murder, abortion rings, and false identities—more than twenty-five aliases for Spears alone—as well as insurance frauds and investment frauds that stretched over decades. But that was far from the end of the story. Methodically and carefully researched for years and meticulously sourced by a research sociologist and author, Vanishing Act is one of the great true crimes.He is the author of Vanishing Act: A Crashed Airliner, Faked Death, and Backroom Abortions. https://jerryjamison.com/http://www.yourlotandparcel.org

  Larry Crafard - The Leads the Warren Commission Lost Part 1 & 2 at Kennedys & King Larry sparked John's interest as it seems he was sort of pushed out of the Warren Commission. Crafard testified before the Warren Commission over the course of three days. Leads were not followed up on. People feel Crafard has some similarities with Oswald. Was he an Oswald imposter? Crafard was tracked down to his sister's in Michigan after JFK and Lee were murdered. Robert Kermit Patterson went to Naval Intelligence in Dallas He reported that he'd seen Oswald in his club but it was Crafard. Waitress Mary Lawrence said she saw Ruby and Crafard together at the B&B Cafe the morning of the assassination. Gloria Fillman confirmed that she went to the B&B Restaurant with Crafard and Ruby. Washburn sat down and plotted out Crafard's timeline after Crafard left Dallas. Earl Ruby described getting a telephone call telling him that Oswald had been shot. When the FBI visited the Carousel Club, Andy Armstrong supplied the FBI with Crafard's mail and notebook. John felt that the FBI was very efficient in trying to find information on Crafard. They did not want to probe Ruby. The American public had to be convinced that the government, police and Warren Commission had things under control. The aim of the Warren Commission was to determine that Oswald was the lone shooter. Crafard's FBI testimony on Thanksgiving Day to the FBI was pretty thorough. Crafard's alibi for 11/22/63 is questionable. Crafard stated in 1st interview that Armstrong had woken him up at the Carousel Club. Incredibly, Crafard undermines his testimony from 1st statement, changed times he had interacted with Armstrong. Armstrong didn't give Crafard an alibi until January of 1964. This alibi didn't match Crafard's testimony. Was Crafard on a bus, headed out of Dealey Plaza, in order to confuse people? Ruby was at the Dallas Morning News at the time of JFK's assassination. Ruby could see Dealey Plaza from the office window. Detective Jim Leavelle arrived at the Tippit murder scene approximately about 1:30 PM. Did Leavelle deal with the 2nd wallet? After Dan Rather saw the Zapruder film, he tried to mislead the public, lying and stating Jack's head shot forward. Was Mary Bledsoe on the bus with Oswald? Did Oswald and a blonde woman get off Mary's bus? Did police board the bus? Was Crafard taken off Mary Beldsoe's bus to help take care of Office Tippit? Was he at the scene when Tippit was shot? Warren Commission's Leon Hubert and Burt Griffin did not feel that Crafard was a shooter. Officer Kenneth Croy arrived on the Tippit scene at the same time as Officer Hill. Bill DeMar testified that he felt he saw Lee Harvey Oswald in the Carousel Club. Could it have been Larry Crafard that he saw? Dan Rather's testimony actually destroys the "Magic Bullet Theory". Did Ruby think there was a plot to murder John Connelly? Was he surprised when he found out JFK had been murdered instead? The Warren Commission requested a search on Crafard's social security number to see where he had been employed. A Carousel Club stripper said that Crafard had a police badge and was impersonating being a police officer. What was hanging up in Tippit's car? Was it a shirt? Was it a jacket? Leavelle stated he didn't realize there was a connection between JFK’s murder and Tippit's murder. Len and John discuss Crafard's timeline into Michigan. Who would he need to see in Chicago?Ray McGinnis @ 1:04:39 April 3, 2025 verdict in Trial of Tamara Lich and Chris Barber: View Here Ray's analysis of the April 3rd verdict: View Here Anna Farrow's August 3rd article in The Rewrite: View Here Editorial Board, "The Crown versus The Truckers," Wall Street Journal, July 24, 2025: View Here Tristin Hopper, "From killings to rape, the heinous crimes that could get you less jail time than a Freedom...

“The Jewish voice must be heard, not because it's more right or less right, but it's there. The suffering is there, the grief is there, and human grief is human grief.” As Jews around the world mark Tisha B'Av, we're joined by Columbia University professor and award-winning poet Owen Lewis, whose new collection, “A Prayer of Six Wings,” offers a powerful reflection on grief in the aftermath of October 7th. In this conversation, Lewis explores the healing power of poetry in the face of trauma, what it means to be a Jewish professor in today's campus climate, and how poetry can foster empathy, encourage dialogue, and resist the pull of division. *The views and opinions expressed by guests do not necessarily reflect the views or position of AJC.   Listen – AJC Podcasts: The Forgotten Exodus: Untold stories of Jews who left or were driven from Arab nations and Iran People of the Pod:  Latest Episodes:  An Orange Tie and A Grieving Crowd: Comedian Yohay Sponder on Jewish Resilience From Broadway to Jewish Advocacy: Jonah Platt on Identity, Antisemitism, and Israel Sexual Violence as a Weapon of War: The Dinah Project's Quest to Hold Hamas Accountable Follow People of the Pod on your favorite podcast app, and learn more at AJC.org/PeopleofthePod You can reach us at: peopleofthepod@ajc.org If you've appreciated this episode, please be sure to tell your friends, and rate and review us on Apple Podcasts or Spotify. Transcript of the Interview:   Owen Lewis:   Overheard in a New York Restaurant.   I can't talk about Israel tonight.    I know.    I can't not talk about Israel tonight.    I know.    Can we talk about . . .   Here? Sure. Let's try to talk about here.   Manya Brachear Pashman:   On Saturday night, Jews around the world will commemorate Tisha B'av. Known as the saddest day on the Jewish calendar, the culmination of a three week period of mourning to commemorate several tragedies throughout early Jewish history.  As a list of tragedies throughout modern Jewish history has continued to grow, many people spend this day fasting, listening to the book of Lamentations in synagogue, or visiting the graves of loved ones. Some might spend the day reading poetry.  Owen Lewis is a Professor of Psychiatry in the Department of Medical Humanities and Ethics at Columbia University. But he's also the award-winning author of four poetry collections which have won accolades, including the EE Cummings Prize and the Rumi Prize for Poetry.  His most recent collection, A Prayer of Six Wings documents in verse his grief since the October 7 terror attacks. Owen is with us now to talk about the role of poetry in times of violence and war, what it's been like to be a Jewish professor on the Columbia campus, and a Jewish father with children and grandchildren in Israel. And also, how to keep writing amid a climate of rising antisemitism. Owen, welcome to People of the Pod. Owen Lewis:   Thank you so much, Manya. Manya Brachear Pashman:   So you opened with that short poem titled overheard in a New York restaurant. I asked you to read that because I wanted to ask whether it reflected how you felt about poetry after October 7.  Did you find yourself in a place where you couldn't write about Israel, but yet you couldn't not write about Israel? Owen Lewis:   Among the many difficult things of that First Year, not only the war, not only the flagrant attacks on the posters of the hostages one block from where I live, 79th and Broadway, every day, taken down every day, put back up again, defaced. It was as if the war were being fought right here on 79th and Broadway.  Another aspect that made this all so painful was watching the artistic and literary world turn against Israel. This past spring, 2000 writers and artists signed a petition, it was published, there was an oped about it in The Times, boycotting Israeli cultural institutions.  And I thought: artists don't have a right to shut their ears. We all need to listen to each other's grief, and if we poets and artists can't listen to one another, what do we expect of statesmen? Statesmen, yeah, they can create a ceasefire. That's not the same as creating peace. And peace can only come when we really listen to each other. To feel ostracized by the poetry community and the intellectual community was very painful. Fortunately, last summer, as well as this past summer, I was a fellow at the Yetzirah conference. Yetzirah is an organization of Jewish American poets, although we're starting to branch out. And this kind of in-gathering of like-minded people gave me so much strength.  So this dilemma, I can't talk about it, because we just can't take the trauma. We can't take hearing one more thing about it, but not talk about it…it's a compulsion to talk about it, and that's a way to process trauma. And that was the same with this poetry, this particular book.  I feel in many ways, it just kind of blew through me, and it was at the same time it blew through me, created this container in which I could express myself, and it actually held me together for that year. I mean, still, in many ways, the writing does that, but not as immediately and acutely as I felt that year.  Manya Brachear Pashman:   This book has been praised as not being for the ideological but for the intellectually and emotionally engaged. So it's not it's not something that ideologically minded readers will necessarily be able to connect to, or is it actually quite the opposite?  Owen Lewis:  Well, it's very much written from the gut, from the experience, from in a sense, being on the ground, both in Israel and here in New York and on campus, and trying to keep a presence in the world of poetry and writers. So what comes from emotion should speak to emotion. There are a few wisps of political statements, but it's not essentially a politically motivated piece of writing.  I feel that I have no problem keeping my sympathies with Israel and with Jews. I can still be critical of aspects of the government, and my sympathies can also be with the thousands of Palestinians, killed, hurt, displaced. I don't see a contradiction. I don't have to take sides.  But the first poem is called My Partisan Grief, and it begins on October 7. I was originally going to call the bookMy Partisan Grief, because I felt that American, Jewish, and Israeli grief was being silenced, was being marginalized. And I wanted to say, this is our grief. Listen to it. You must listen to this. It doesn't privilege this grief over another grief. Grief is grief. But I wanted ultimately to move past that title into something broader, more encompassing, more humanitarian. Manya Brachear Pashman:  And did that decision come as the death toll in Gaza rose and this war kept going and going and the hostages remained in captivity, did that kind of sway your thinking in terms of how to approach the book and frame it?  Owen Lewis:  Yes, but even more than those kind of headlines, which can be impersonal, the poetry of some remarkable Palestinian poets move me into a broader look. Abu Toha was first one who comes to mind Fady Joudah, who's also a physician, by the way. I mean his poetry, I mean many others, but it's gorgeous, moving poetry.  Some of it is a diatribe, and you know, some of it is ideological, and people can do that with poetry, but when poetry really drills down into human experience, that's what I find so compelling and moving. And that's what I think can move the peace process. I know it sounds quite idealistic, but I really think poetry has a role in the peace process here. Manya Brachear Pashman:  I want to I want to unpack that a little bit later. But first, I want to go back to the protests that were roiling Columbia's campus over the past year and a half, two years. What was it like to be, one, writing this book, but also, teaching on campus as a Jewish professor?  Owen Lewis:  Most of my teaching takes place up at the Medical Center at 168th Street. And there I have to say, I didn't feel battered in any way by what was happening. I had a very shocking experience. I had a meeting that I needed to attend on, or that had been scheduled, I hadn't been quite paying attention. I mean, I knew about the encampments, but I hadn't seen them, and I come face to face with a blocked campus. I couldn't get on the campus. And what I'm staring at are signs to the effect, send the Jews back to Poland. I'm thinking, Where am I? What is this? I mean, protest, sure. I mean we expect undergraduates, we expect humans, to protest when things really aren't fair. But what did this have to do…why invoke the Holocaust and re-invoke it, as if to imply the Jews should be punished? All Jews.  And what it fails to account for are the diversity of Jewish opinion. And you know, for some Jews, it's a black or white matter, but for most thinking Jews that I know, we all struggle very much with a loyalty to Israel, to the Jewish people, to the homeland and larger humanitarian values. So that was quite a shock. And I wrote a piece called “The Scars of Encampment,” in which I say, I can't unsee that. " And I go to campus, and, okay, it's a little bit more security to get onto campus. It's a beautiful campus. It's like an oasis there, but at the same time, I'm seeing what was as if it still is. And in a way, that's the nature of trauma that things from the past just roil and are present with almost as much emotion as when first encountered. Manya Brachear Pashman:  So did you need to tune out those voices, or did that fuel your work? Owen Lewis:  No, that fueled my work. I mean, if anything, it made me feel much more, a sense of mission with this book. And a commitment, despite criticism that I may receive, and no position I take is that outlandish, except to sympathize with the murdered on October 7th, to sympathize with their families, to resonate with what it must be like to have family members as hostages in brutal, brutal conditions. Not knowing whether they're dead or alive. So I really felt that the Jewish voice must be heard, not because it's more right or less right, but it's there. The suffering is there, the grief is there, and human grief is human grief. Manya Brachear Pashman:  Owen, if you wouldn't mind reading another poem from the collection. Of course, many of us remember the news out of Israel on Thanksgiving Day 2023, right after October 7th. And this poem is titled, “Waiting for the Next Release, Reported by the New York Times, November 23 2023”. Owen Lewis:  Waiting For the Next Release, Reported N.Y. Times, Nov. 23, 2023    Maybe tomorrow, if distrust  doesn't flare like a missile,  some families will be reunited.    How awful this lottery of choice; Solomon would not deliberate. Poster faces always before my eyes,   Among them, Emma & Yuli Cunio.  Twins age 3, Raz Katz-Asher, age 4, Ariel Bibas, another four year old.    What do their four year old minds make  of captivity? What will they say? What would my Noa say?    What will the other Noas say?  Remembering Noa Argamani, age 26,  thrown across the motorcycle    to laughter and Hamas joy.   I have almost forgotten this American day,  Thanks- giving,   With its cornucopian harvests,  I am thinking of the cornucopian  jails of human bounty.    (What matter now who is to blame?) Manya Brachear Pashman:  Really beautiful, and it really captures all of our emotions that day. You have children and grandchildren in Israel, as I mentioned and as you mentioned in that poem, your granddaughter, Noa. So your grief and your fear, it's not only a collective grief and fear that we all share, but also very personal, which you weave throughout the collection.  In another poem, “In a Van to JFK”, you talk about just wanting to spend one more hour with your family before they fly off to Israel. And it's very moving.  But in addition to many of the poems, like the one you just read, they are based on and somewhat named for newspaper headlines, you said that kind of establishes a timeline. But are there other reasons why you transformed those headlines into verse? Owen Lewis:  Yes, William Carlos Williams in his poem Asphodel, says, and I'm going to paraphrase it badly. You won't get news from poems yet, men die every day for wanting what is found there. And I think it's a very interesting juxtaposition of journalism and poetry. And I mean, I'm not writing news, I'm writing where my reflections, where my heart, goes in response to the news, and trying to bring another element to the news that, you know, we were confronted.  I mean, in any time of high stress, you swear off – I'm not watching any more TV. I'm not even gonna look at the newspaper. And then, of course, you do. I can't talk about Israel today. I can't not talk about it. I can't read the paper. I can't not read the paper. It's kind of that back and forth. But what is driving that? And so I'm trying to get at that next dimension of what's resonating behind each one of these headlines, or resonating for me. I mean, I'm not claiming this is an interpretation of news. It's my reaction, but people do react, and there's that other dimension to headlines. Manya Brachear Pashman:  That seems like it might be therapeutic, no? Owen Lewis:  Oh, totally, totally. You know, I'm very fortunate that having started a career in medicine, in psychiatry, and particularly in child and adolescent psychiatry. I always had one foot in the door academically. I spent, you know, my life as, I still teach, but I'm very fortunate to have, maybe 10+ years ago, been introduced to a basically a woman who created the field of Narrative Medicine, Rita Sharon. And now at Columbia in the medical school, we have a free-standing Department of Medical Humanities and Ethics, of which she's chairman.  So I've had the fortune of bringing psychiatry and medicine and writing together in a very integrated way. And yes, writing is therapeutic, especially, I could say in medicine, which has given itself over to electronic medical record keeping, but our whole society is moving towards the electronic. And what happens when you sit and write, and what happens when you then sit and read, you reflect. Your mind engages in a different way that is a bit slower than the fast pace of electronic communications and instant communications and instant thinking. And now with AI, instant analysis of any situation you want to feed data from.  So that's sorely lacking in the human experience. And the act of writing, the act of reading has huge therapeutic values, huge salutary benefits for humans in general, but particularly in times of stress. In a lot of work on Post Traumatic Stress Disorder, finding an outlet, an artistic outlet, it doesn't have to be writing, but that's often a way of transcending the trauma.  And medicine is filled with trauma. People trying to come to terms with acute illnesses, chronic illnesses. Doctors and caregivers trying to come to terms with what they can and can't do. And you know, we're coming up against limitations. But how do you make peace with those limitations? And it's not that it's a magical panacea, but it's a process of engagement, not only with the subject, but with yourself in relation to the subject. Manya Brachear Pashman:  I mean, I imagine dialogue is really the healthiest way of conversation and speaking through and interacting with a topic. And so I would imagine poetry, or, as you said, any art form, responding to news reports, it makes that a two way conversation when you're able to process and it's not just the headlines shouting at you, you're actually interacting and processing it by writing and reaction, or painting and reaction, whatever you choose to do. Owen Lewis:  Exactly. Manya Brachear Pashman:  You have said that poetry can serve a purpose during times of war. Is this one of the purposes to to be therapeutic or are you talking more in terms of what statesmen could learn from it?  Owen Lewis:  Well, yes, of course, what statesmen could learn from it, but it's human nature to want to take sides. I mean, that's kind of just what we do. But I think we can always do better than that. So I'm really talking about the people. I mean, there are also many Jews who are so angry at Israel that they can't listen to the story of Jewish grief. They should be reading mine and others poetries from this era. I wish the Palestinian poets were. I wish the Palestinian people. I mean, of course, in their current situation, they don't have time when you're starving, when you're looking for your next glass of fresh water. You don't have time for anything beyond survival.  But once we get beyond that, how long are these positions going to be hardened. I mean, I think when the people of all sides of the dilemma really listen to the others, I mean, they're, I mean, if, unless as Hamas has expressed, you know, wants to push Israel into the sea, if Israel is going to coexist with the Palestinian people, whether they're in a nation or not in a nation, each has to listen to the other.  And it's, you know, it's not one side is right, one side is wrong. It's far too complex a history to reduce it to that kind of simplicity. And I think poetry, everyone's poetry, gets at the complexity of experience, which includes wanting to take sides and questioning your wanting to take sides and moving towards something more humanitarian.  Manya Brachear Pashman:  You said earlier, you recommend Abu Toha, Fady Joudah, two Palestinian poets who have written some beautiful verse about– tragically beautiful verse–about what's happening. But there have been some really deep rifts in the literary world over this war. I mean, as you mentioned before, there was a letter written by authors and entertainers who pledged to boycott Israeli cultural institutions. Some authors have refused to sell rights to their books to publishers in Israel. So why not reciprocate? And I know the answer. I think you've already addressed it pretty well. What's wrong with that approach? Owen Lewis:  In any conflict, there are at least three sides to the conflict. I mean, claims to nationhood, claims to who shoved first, who. I mean, you don't entangle things by aggressively reacting. I mean, if we learned anything from Mahatma Gandhi, it's what happens when we don't retaliate, right? And what happens when we go the extra mile to create bridges and connections.  There are a host of people in Israel who continue to help Palestinians get to medical facilities, driving them back and forth, working for peace. I mean, there's a Palestinian on the Supreme Court of Israel, and well, he should be there. You know, that's the part of Israel that I am deeply proud of. So why not retaliate? I think it entrenches positions and never moves anything forward. Manya Brachear Pashman:  So have you gotten any negative feedback from your writing colleagues? Owen Lewis:  Some cold shoulders, yes. I mean not nothing overtly. I haven't been slammed in a review yet. Maybe that's coming. But when I publish pieces, I tend not to look at them. I had an oped in the LA Times. I've had some other pieces, you know, that precipitates blogs, and I started to read them.  And the first blog that came off of the the LA Times oped was, God, is he an opportunist, just taking advantage of having a daughter in Israel? And trying to make a name for himself or something. And I said, You know what, you can't put yourself out and take a position without getting some kind of flack. So occasionally, those things filter back, it's par for the course. Manya Brachear Pashman:  Right, not really worth reading some of those. You included Midrash in this book. You also spelled God in the traditional sense in the poems. Why did you choose to do that? Owen Lewis:  Well, I felt it honors a tradition of Jewish writing. It mean we have yud, hey, vav, hey, you know, which in English comes down as Yahweh, but it's unpronounceable. The name of God is unpronounceable. And, you know, yud, hey, vav, hey is just a representation. It isn't God's name. And there's a tradition that the name of God, when it's written down, can't be destroyed. And it's a way of honoring that tradition. Millennium of Jewish writers, you know, it's similar to say Elokim, instead of Elohim when the text is written. To sort of substitute. We know what we're talking about, but really to honor tradition, to pay respect and sort of to stay in the mind frame that, if there is a God, he, she, they, are unknowable. And somehow it creates, for me, a little bit of that mystery by leaving a letter out. It's like, G, O, D, seems more knowable than G-d. It's leaving that white space right for something bigger, grander, and mysterious, for the presence of that  right in the word itself. Manya Brachear Pashman:  And what about including Midrash? Owen Lewis: That's a very interesting question. You know Midrash for me, when you steep yourself in traditional Midrash, there's stories that exemplify principles and they fill in gaps. I mean, some of the most important. I mean, we have this notion of Abraham breaking the idols of his father before he left. No. That's Midrash, thats not in the Torah. And yet, nine out of ten Jews will say that's in the Torah, right? So, it kind of expands our understanding of the traditional text. But it also very much allows a writer to creatively engage with the text and expand it. It's like a commentary, but it's a commentary in story, and it's a commentary in terms that evoke human responses, not necessarily intellectual responses. So frankly, I think it's every Jews' responsibility to write Midrash. That reinvigorates the stories, the texts, and the meanings, and then we write midrashes upon midrashes. And you know, we get a whole community buzzing about a single story. Manya Brachear Pashman:  Which is very much what you've done with this collection, you know, writing poetry in response to news stories and engaging it in that way. It's very Jewish response, I would argue.  Do you observe Tisha B'av? Owen Lewis:  You know what I do. You're gonna laugh. My grandmother always warned us, don't go in the water on Tisha B'av, the sea will swallow you up. So I'm a big swimmer. I love swimming. I don't swim on Tisha B'av, because I hear my grandmother's voice, I'm going to be swallowed up. Manya Brachear Pashman:  If you could please wrap up this conversation by sharing a poem of your choice from your latest collection. Owen Lewis:  A poem I love to read again starts with a headline.   2000 Pound Bombs Drop, Reported N.Y. Times, Dec,, 22 2023.   In Khan Younis, the call to prayer  is the call of a dazed Palestinian child crying baba, standing at the brim of a cavernous pit of rubble   biting his knuckles–baba, baba . . .  It's so close to the abba of the dazed  Israeli children of Be'eri, Kfar Azza. There is no comfort. From his uncles   he's heard the calls for revenge– for his home and school, for his bed  of nighttime stories, for his nana's  whisper-song of G-d's many names.   His Allah, his neighbor's Adonai,  cry the same tears for death  and shun more blood. No miracle these waters turning red. Who called forth    the fleets of avenging angels? By viral post: Jewish Plagues on Gaza! A firstborn lost,  then a second, a third. What other plagues  pass over? Hail from the tepid sky?   From on high it falls and keeps falling.  Though we've “seen terrible things,” will you tell us, Adonai, Allah, tell us– do You remember the forgotten promise?   From the pile once home of rubble stone, a father's hand reaching out, baba, abba crushed by the load. We know the silence  of the lost child . . . G-d “has injured us   but will bind up our wounds . . .” Mothers  Look for us, called by the name yamma, calling  the name imma. Our father of mercy, not the god of sacrifice. Our many crying heads explode. Manya Brachear Pashman:   Owen Lewis, thank you so much for talking to us about how this book came about and for sharing some of these verses. Owen Lewis:   Thank you so much. Manya Brachear Pashman: If you missed last week's episode, be sure to listen to my conversation with Israeli comedian Yohay Sponder on the sidelines of AJC Global Forum 2025. Hear how his Jewish identity shapes his work, how his comedy has evolved since the Hamas terror attacks, and what he says to those who try to silence him.

learn words and phrases for Thanksgiving Day

Watch on Philo! - Philo.tv/DTHThe movie kicks off on Thanksgiving Day on the slopes. Some skiers are skiing and they're real good. It takes 3 minutes but they finally call it a day. It's Austin & Noelle. They're a couple and he proposes and she says yes! He promises a big holiday wedding, surrounded by family, at Riverbottom Ranch. She's like how are you gonna do that? They book out 2 years in advanced. He's like well good thing I got the Christmas day slot that was available. Cut to Austin's brother, Seth. He's really going through it. His girlfriend broke up with him and now he's just sitting on the couch in his boxers and guitar, imagining her putting up his stocking. Just then, their other brother Tom and his girlfriend Liz come in and they have big news. They're getting married too!!! What a Thanksgiving indeed! What could go wrong?Well, when Mom asks the wedding days, they both say CHRISTMAS DAY AT RIVERBOTTOM RANCH at the same time. WHOA! They figure out what happened - they both called to confirm the Wright wedding on Christmas day. But they'll make it work. two weddings, one day, what could go wrong? Well - up first, Austin & Tom argue about who gets grandma's ring. But the brides aren't letting all this nonsense get them down. They're going dress hunting, it's a whole thing. And for some reason, Seth is alway there, just looking sad and drinking champaign. Noelle is sick of the brothers fighting, so she tells them that the brothers are going on a bachelors trip so that they can stop fighting. They're also all gonna go register for wedding gifts together. The fishing trip bachelor party is a disaster because the lake that Seth picks out is no longer a lake. The electric car is out of battery. And Seth didn't even pack snakcs. They get to a bar and Seth decides to sing some karaoke to try to get over his breakup. His brothers join him to try to help him feel better but the crowd hates it. A giant fight breaks out. But that bonds them back together. They plug the car into a barn and sleep inside of it. They wake up the next day, get their tuxes on, and they rush to the ranch! When they get there, they're greeted by grandma. She gives them a gift - it's wedding bands for both of them that came from her wedding ring, melted down. It was Seth's idea. And just like that, it's wedding time. Seth walks Noelle down the aisle. And the joint wedding begins. Seth's ex is there and he sits next to her. She says she thinks there's been a misunderstanding and she grabs his hand much to Seth's joy. After the wedding, they talk and she's like I was at my internship in a remote location...you should've known that. I'd never bail on you. He's like I wrote you a song. Gotta be honest... it's an absolute bop. Everyone dances and I just can't get over how good this song was. and that's the movie!

On Thanksgiving Day in 1982, the body of Ruth Elizabeth Bettis was found in a field in rural Travis County. She was last seen leaving her place of employment, Sugar's adult entertainment, the evening before with a mystery man. The seemingly contradicting two worlds in which she lived, that of a coed and that of a topless dancer, made the Travis County Sheriff's Department's investigation unusual...and difficult. Though a serial rapist and a cop were scrutinized for Elizabeth's slaying, a lack of evidence had prevented movement on the case, and it remains unsolved today.If you have any information about the murder of Ruth Elizabeth Bettis please call Texas Crime Stoppers at 800 252 8477.You can support gone cold and listen to the show ad-free at patreon.com/gonecoldpodcastFind us at https://www.gonecold.comFor Gone Cold merch, visit https://gonecold.dashery.comFollow gone cold on Facebook, Instagram, Threads, TikTok, YouTube, and X.
