“Would you wear a diaper just to hold your spot at Times Square on New Year's Eve?” That outrageous question sets the tone for this segment of the Ben and Skin Show, featuring Ben Rogers, Jeff “Skin” Wade, Kevin “KT” Turner, and Krystina Ray.Meet Flossie, a British feline who just turned 30—and sparked a hilarious debate about cat years, fake news stories, and why Skin might start lying about his dog's age to get on TV.Plus, Ben and Skin uncover the bizarre reality of people wearing diapers for 16-hour events, leading to one of the funniest riffs of the year: “How sturdy is your changing table? Because I'm a big man.”In conclusion, the gang revisits the viral moment where Flossie Dickie declared, “I am tired,” and somehow turns it into a conversation about true love, giant diaper bags, and questionable romantic activity in retirement homes.

====================================================SUSCRIBETEhttps://www.youtube.com/channel/UCNpffyr-7_zP1x1lS89ByaQ?sub_confirmation=1==================================================== DEVOCIÓN MATUTINA PARA MENORES 2026“HEROES Y VILLANOS”Narrado por: Tatania DanielaDesde: Juliaca, PerúUna cortesía de DR'Ministries y Canaan Seventh-Day Adventist Church07 DE ENEROHÉROES BONDADOSOS«Si se aman los unos a los otros, todo el mundo se dará cuenta de que son discípulos míos» (Juan 13: 35).Una fría noche de invierno de 2011 en el Times Square de Nueva York, el oficial Lawrence DePrimo cumplía su labor de vigilancia contra el terrorismo. En su recorrido, encontró en la calle a un hombre mendigo descalzo. «Esa noche yo casi me congelaba, pero se podían ver las ampollas en los pies del hombre. Yo tenía puestos dos pares de calcetines y aun así tenía frío», dijo DePrimo.Después de averiguar el número de calzado del vagabundo, el policía desapareció y entró a una zapatería cercana. El responsable de la zapatería, tras conocer las intenciones del policía, se ofreció a ayudar con su descuento de empleado de la tienda. Aun así, DePrimo pagó 75.00 dólares por las botas y luego regresó a ver al hombre, se agachó y lo ayudó a ponerse las botas. «Era el hombre más amable que he conocido», dijo el oficial DePrimo acerca del vagabundo. Su cara irradiaba alegría. DePrimo se ofreció a comprarle una bebida caliente, pero tan pronto el hombre tuvo las botas puestas, se echó a andar y se perdió en la calle.Este acto de bondad bien pudo haber pasado desapercibido de no ser por una turista de Arizona que tomó una foto y la publicó en la página de Facebook de la policía neoyorquina. Apenas un día después de difundir la foto y de describir la generosidad del oficial DePrimo, 1,600,000 personas habían visitado la publicación y casi 275,000 habían marcado que les gustaba la noticia.Jennifer Foster, quien tomó la foto de DePrimo frente al vagabundo, trabaja para la oficina del sheriff en el condado de Pinal. Cuando pasaba por la calle y vio a DePrimo acuclillado frente al vagabundo, sacó su teléfono y tomó la foto porque le trajo a la memoria el vivo recuerdo de su padre, quien también había sido oficial de la policía. Foster recordó cómo su padre entró a una tienda, compró alimentos, se acuclilló frente a un mendigo y se los dio.Lamentablemente, hay mucho recelo respecto a los guardadores del orden público; hasta se dudó que la imagen de DePrimo fuera auténtica. Si entre los servidores públicos y la sociedad en general hay personas honorables y de buen corazón, ¿cuánto más entre el pueblo de Dios? La marca del cristianismo es el amor desinteresado, algo que manifestaron elocuentemente estos dos policías, DePrimo y Foster. Esos héroes de las calles bien podemos ser nosotros sí mostramos el mismo amor.

Every New Year's day, historically, we all get a sense of renewal. Wind in our sales, so to speak. Excitement for the year to come. We close the door to last year, but not before Last Year puts its big'ol foot in the door and whispers… “Not so fast. Ya see, we all hope for this grand change to happen when the clock turns over at midnight. That's why we have New Year's Eve parties, and fireworks, and The Ball Drop at Times Square in NYC.But if there was no party… no sparkles… no ball.Would we even know there was a change?  Years turn over, in the same way that seasons change…Quietly, and without ceremony. Unimpressed by intentions, or by hope.2026 will be a year of change. It's almost a foregone conclusion. The Trump Administration, whether you like it or not… has seen to that.The question is… what changed for you at 12:01am on January the 1st…? My guess is, very little.At 12:01am on January 1st…Out there, farm fields and gardens rest beneath cold soil.Pantries… hold what they hold.Our hands remember only the work they've done before.Those of us who prepare live closer to this truth.We read the land, the weather, the cracks in the system.We know how thin the line can be between order and chaos.This coming year calls for intention and planning..It calls for steady hands and minds that will shape reality into a path forward.Maybe less noise, more focus. Instead of a dramatic entrance, maybe a strategic retreat.Tonight, we talk about what must be strengthened.We do that by setting goals…Reasonable. Realistic. Achievable… GoalsEvery goal is as unique as the Prepper who sets it.We'll tell you some of our goals, in hopes that it helps you start working on yours.TOPS Bunker WebsiteRefuge Medical Website - Use Code TOPSBUNKER10 at CheckoutPlease Visit Our Affiliate Links to Find Great Preparedness Products:Kaisvin Lock Pick Set & Training KitHow To Pick Locks - PaperbackGarmin Handheld GPSBTECH FRS RADIOANKOR Power BankJackery Solar GeneratorSwiss TechBaofeng UV-5R Ham RadioAMAZON Gift CardGrayl GeoPress TitaniumGrayl UltraPress Budget BottleWaterDrop TST-UF 0,01 Ultra-Fitration Whole HouseiSpring UVF8 LED UV Water FilterPUREWELL 8-Stage 0.01 Ultra-Filtration CountertopVEVOR Alcohol StillWater Storage PaperbackThe Preppers Water Survival Guide PaperbackSupport the show

Police say dozens are feared dead and as many as 100 others are injured after a fire at a ski resort in Switzerland. The blaze broke out in the early hours of New Year's Day at the Le Constellation bar in the upscale Alpine ski resort of Crans-Montana in the Swiss Canton of Valais. Helicopters and ambulances rushed to the scene to assist victims, including several tourists. The cause of the blaze remains unclear, but authorities say it appears to have been an accident rather than an attack.Thousands of revelers in Times Square welcomed 2026 with fireworks and the annual Times Square Ball Drop. Party-goers were also treated to a surprise as the Times Square Ball was relit in red, white, and blue before rising to mark the start of the United States' 250th anniversary.

SHOW NOTES: New Year celebrations date back 4,000 years to ancient Babylon, where the festival of Akitu marked the new year around the spring equinox with religious rituals, debt-paying promises (early resolutions), and kingly renewals. Early civilizations linked it to agricultural cycles, like Egyptians with the Nile's flood. The Roman calendar, shifted to January 1st by Julius Caesar, became the basis for our Gregorian calendar, solidifying the date, though many cultures still celebrate at different times (Chinese New Year, Rosh Hashanah). The Babylonians made promises to their gods during a 12-day Akitu festival (their new year in March) to repay debts and return borrowed items for good fortune, a practice later adopted and adapted by the Romans and evolving into today's personal goal-setting tradition for self-improvement and a fresh start. New Year's Eve celebrations became huge in Times Square starting in 1904, when The New York Times hosted a massive fireworks party for its new building, drawing 200,000 people; the iconic ball drop tradition began three years later in 1907, replacing fireworks and cementing the event as a beloved annual spectacle, as reported by The New York Times Company and Times Square. Make a single resolution, not scores which will not be realized and lead to disappointment and self-doubt. Start it now, today, not some future date. Don't regret the past or dread the future. Live for today, every day. You can't change the past and the future will here before you know it. And remember most, perhaps, that all of us deal with trauma and pain of varying types. Pain is inevitable in life, but suffering is voluntary. So mourn your loss, endure the pain, but stop suffering and enjoy the wonderful life of existence. It beats the hell out of the alternative. Happy New Year! (blow a horn)

Goodbye 2025... Hello 2026. The other side of the world has already rung in the New Year... And soon the U-S will bring in the new year. Security is being beefed up at celebrations coast to coast as law enforcement sends out the alert that a lone wolf attacker is the biggest threat we face tonight.  And a lot of people were spotted in Times Square sporting surgical masks... A throwback to the covid pandemic. But the fear now is catching the super flu that health experts say is hitting earlier and harder than the traditional flu. Plus, where is the so-called doomsday mom? She was last seen at an airport with four children boarding a plane to Europe. Her husband says she became obsessed with the world coming to an end and took her kids and fled the country.  And a sad ending to the search for the missing 19-year-old high schooler who walked out of her home on Christmas Eve in her pajamas. Cops say her body was found in a field not far from her home. Police says she died of a self-inflicted gunshot wound... The gun found at the scene.    To learn more about listener data and our privacy practices visit: https://www.audacyinc.com/privacy-policy Learn more about your ad choices.

AP correspondent Donna Warder reports on New Year's Eve in New York City's Times Square.

From Times Square to the streets of London, Madrid, and Rio, millions around the world rang in 2026 with spectacle, tradition, and reflection. Revelers in New York City were treated to a surprise, as the Times Square ball was relit in red, white, and blue, before rising again to mark the start of the United States' 250th year. The Washington Monument in the District of Columbia also put on a light show for America's upcoming 250th birthday.The Trump administration imposed sanctions on four firms operating in Venezuela's oil sector on Wednesday. The United States is accusing the oil tankers of being part of a shadow fleet serving President Nicolas Maduro's government. The latest ship sanctions are meant to deny the firms and tankers access to any property or financial assets held in the United States. The actions are part of the Trump administration's months-long pressure campaign on Maduro's authoritarian regime.Zohran Mamdani is officially the mayor of New York City. The Democratic Socialist took the oath of office at a historic, decommissioned subway station in Manhattan. Mamdani is the first Muslim leader of America's biggest city, and took his oath on a Quran. The ceremony was administered by New York Attorney General Letitia James, and he will be sworn in again by Sen. Bernie Sanders (I-Vt.) at City Hall on Jan. 1.

New Year's fireworks fade fast, and what's left is the same life you had yesterday. That's the starting point we embrace: skip the performance, keep the humor, and pick choices that make today feel lighter. We riff on sleeping through midnight, bailing on loud parties, and why Times Square's diaper culture is the opposite of a good memory. The throughline is simple and stubbornly human—feeling better beats pretending to be better.We go from body comedy to honest care: yoga mishaps, back gripes, and the art of not sitting on your own anatomy become a gateway to realistic routines. Instead of punishing resolutions, we build tiny habits that stick—short workouts, kinder showers, five-minute guitar riffs for joy, not performance. We talk media hygiene too: retiring trauma-forward picks and adding playful, low-stress movies that actually soothe your nervous system. Joy isn't fluff; it's recovery.Along the way we unpack social bandwidth, the myth of “respectful silence,” and the power of a little candid seasoning in rooms where nobody stops talking. There's permission here to choose smaller circles, fewer nights out, and more honest boundaries. We also get real about creative life without a big machine behind it—why community support matters, how DIY shows get made, and what we want to build next.We close with a quick breathing reset you'll actually do, a laugh you might need, and a nudge to pick one small intention you could keep past January.

NY correspondent Luke Tress joins host Amanda Borschel-Dan for today's episode. New York City Mayor-elect Zohran Mamdani is set to become the city's leader at midnight as the apple falls in Times Square. According to a report from the Anti-Defamation League, at least 20 percent of Mamdani’s 400 administrative appointees are connected to anti-Zionist US activist groups, such as Students for Justice in Palestine. Tress zooms into the case of Catherine Almonte Da Costa, who was initially named as his administration’s director of appointments. Tress delves into which of Mamdani’s policies are particularly worrisome for NY Jews, including security, schools and the annual Israel parade. In the second half, we focus on the new Movement Against Antizionism (MAAZ) and how it sees itself as a new way of framing hatred against Jews. Scholar Adam Louis-Klein and MAAZ are part of a network of academics and activists pushing the Jewish community to focus on anti-Zionism as a distinct hatred, with its own ideology and tactics, moving on from the antisemitism paradigm as a framework for understanding discrimination against Jews. We debate whether this is needed even as it grows in traction in the US. Check out The Times of Israel's ongoing liveblog for more updates.

By the time the ball drops in Times Square tonight, the people of the Line Islands will be almost a full day into 2026. The islands are in the Pacific Ocean, south of Hawaii. But they’re just across the International Date Line. That makes the islands the first place to see the new year. The Date Line is needed because the time gets an hour earlier for every time zone west, and an hour later for every time zone east. Without a place to reset the date, time just wouldn’t make sense. The line mostly runs down the middle of the Pacific – half way around the globe from Greenwich, England, which is the starting point for the time system. But individual countries can set their own time zones. So the line zigzags between Alaska and Russia. And near the equator, it jumps more than a thousand miles to the east. That extension came three decades ago. The island nation of Kiribati changed its time zones. That made it easier for the country to do business with Australia, which is west of the Date Line. The country’s easternmost extension is the Line Islands. So the date changes there first – making the Line Islands the first places on Earth to ring in the new year. American Samoa is farther west than the Line Islands. But its time zone puts it on the opposite side of the Date Line – making it one of the last places to change the calendar.

In this end-of-year special, Lionel ditches the "mandatory" boring takes of traditional media to explore why terrestrial talk radio should be the next "vinyl"—a hip, high-quality medium that connects people through "radicalized wild talk". From a fire alarm mid-broadcast to debating the "collective insanity" of standing in the cold at Times Square, Lionel tackles everything with a unique angle. Whether he's celebrating the unsung heroes of New York sanitation or sharing legendary stories about Bob Hope and Ed McMahon, this show is about the art of the conversation, and the "ears" that listen in the dark.

Este año en Penitencia nos sentamos a escuchar. No fueron historias fáciles de contar ni de escuchar, pero todas llevaban la misma pregunta: ¿Cómo llegamos aquí?En 2025 aprendimos algo que no podemos seguir ignorando: la violencia no nace de la nada. Tiene raíces que podemos rastrear, causas que podemos nombrar, orígenes que podemos transformar si nos atrevemos a mirarlos sin prejuicios.Conocimos a adolescentes que no encontraron otras formas de sentirse vivos, madres que robaron para salvar a sus hijos enfermos, personas inocentes que perdieron décadas en prisión por cumplir cuotas de detención, y niños que crecieron entre rejas sin conocer el mundo exterior. Vimos cómo medio millón de niños tienen hoy a sus padres en prisión y cómo hasta 250 mil corren riesgo de ser reclutados por el crimen organizado.Pero también descubrimos que los ciclos de violencia se pueden romper. Que cuando nos atrevemos a escuchar sin juzgar primero, algo cambia en nosotros. Que el origen de la violencia está en el abandono, en los talentos desperdiciados, en las familias destruidas, en la ignorancia de nuestros derechos, en la soledad de creernos separados.Este episodio especial es un recorrido por las voces que nos enseñaron que entender el origen de la violencia es el primer paso para transformarla. Porque solo cuando lo encontramos, podemos empezar a cambiarlo.Lanzamos Inocencia en Prisión, creamos Código Penitencia, presentamos #LasPalabrasLiberan, llegamos a Times Square y nos convertimos en uno de los podcasts de mayor crecimiento en español dentro del true crime. Pero esto nunca se trató de números, sino de una comunidad que decidió no voltear la mirada.2026 nos espera con los mismos problemas, pero también con todos los que ahora saben acompañar, con todos los que decidieron actuar para mejorar el país donde vivimos.Gracias por buscar con nosotros el origen de la violencia. La transformación empieza con escuchar, con no quedarnos callados, con exigir mejor, con acompañar, con actuar.Cada martes y cada jueves, en PENITENCIA, encontrando el origen de nuestra violencia.Para ver episodios exclusivos, entra aquí: https://www.patreon.com/Penitencia_mx¿Quieres ver los episodios antes que nadie?

TALK TO ME, TEXT ITA countdown, a wig switch, and two stories that stick: we dig into what your blood type might say about your health, then climb to the rooftops with the man who sets Times Square's confetti loose at midnight. The science comes first. We break down how types A, B, AB, and O relate to risks like norovirus, ulcers, heart attack, stroke, and clotting, and why hospitals treat AB plasma like “liquid gold” while relying on O-negative donors in emergencies. We talk through universal recipient and donor rules, the differences that may influence COVID-19 severity, and how to use these insights without turning them into fate. Practical, plain-English takeaways help you ask smarter questions at your next appointment.From there, the show lifts into the human layer. Meet the confetti king coordinating more than 100 volunteers and 3,000 pounds of paper across Times Square's skyline. His radio call syncs with fireworks and “Auld Lang Syne,” but what makes the spectacle unforgettable are the wishes on each slip—tiny notes gathered online and from a wishing wall, drifting over a million strangers. One message about a mother's cancer led to a phone call, a pause, and quiet sobs that turned a city ritual into something intimate and real. We love the logistics, but we linger on the feeling: the way simple craft delivers a shared heartbeat at midnight.We close with a question for you: if your wish could ride a confetti flake over Times Square, what would it say? Hit play, then share your line. If the conversation gave you something useful or moved you, follow, rate, and send this to a friend who needs a nudge of science and a spark of wonder.Buzzsprout - Let's get your podcast launched!Start for FREE Thanks for listening!

Episode 14 of 15 | Season 36: Serial Killers in HistoryIn a locked storage chamber in rural Hungary, seven sealed metal drums waited to reveal their terrible secrets—each containing the perfectly preserved body of a woman who had answered a marriage advertisement.The investigation into Hungary's most prolific lonely hearts killer reaches its chilling conclusion as we trace Béla Kiss's extraordinary escape from justice during the chaos of World War One.VICTIM PROFILE:Katherine Varga sold her dressmaking business for the promise of marriage. Margaret Toth trusted her mother's choice of a husband. These women weren't victims of circumstance—they were successful, independent, and looking for partnership in an era when marriage advertisements represented a respectable path to companionship. They responded to notices in Budapest newspapers, exchanged romantic letters with a successful tinsmith named Béla Kiss, and traveled alone to his home in Cinkota with their valuables and their hopes. The skills that had supported Katherine's independence—her precise needlework—would later identify her remains years after Kiss strangled her and sealed her body in an alcohol-filled drum.THE CRIME:This case changed how Hungarian law enforcement approached missing persons cases and marriage advertisement fraud. Kiss's crimes exposed the vulnerability of women seeking companionship in early twentieth-century society and demonstrated how a charismatic predator could weaponize social conventions for years without detection. The preserved bodies—so pristine that victims remained recognizable years after death—stand as haunting evidence of how ordinary systems can shield extraordinary evil. Béla Kiss remains one of criminology's greatest unsolved mysteries, his ability to disappear so completely ensuring his story continues to captivate researchers worldwide.Content Warning: This episode contains descriptions of violence against women and discussions of serial murder. Listener discretion advised.KEY CASE DETAILS:The investigation into Béla Kiss began in mid-1916 when landlord Márton Kresinszky and pharmacist Béla Takács discovered seven metal drums in Kiss's locked storage chamber. Each drum, professionally sealed with lead solder, contained a woman's body preserved in wood alcohol and strangled with a rope or garrotte. Investigators found seventeen more bodies throughout the property, bringing the total to twenty-four victims—all killed with the same methodical approach.Timeline: Kiss operated between 1912-1914, placing matrimonial advertisements in Budapest newspapers under the alias "Hofmann." Conscripted to the 40th Honvéd Infantry Brigade in 1914, he left his home in housekeeper Mrs. Jakubec's care. The discovery came nearly two years later during renovation preparations.Method: Kiss corresponded with 174 women, actively pursued 74, and lured victims by emphasizing his financial stability and respectable tinsmith business. He requested women travel alone and bring their valuables. After strangling them, he took their assets and preserved bodies in alcohol-filled drums—a technique that astounded medical examiners with its effectiveness.Escape: In October 1916, Detective Chief Charles Nagy traveled to a Serbian military hospital after reports Kiss was alive. He arrived to find a corpse in Kiss's bed—but the face was wrong. Kiss had switched identity documents with a dying soldier and walked out of the hospital into the chaos of war-torn Serbia.Aftermath: In 1932, New York City homicide detective Henry Oswald was certain he spotted Kiss emerging from the Times Square subway station. The sighting was never confirmed. Whether Kiss died in the trenches, lived out his days under an assumed identity, or met some other fate remains unknown. The mathematics of his notebook—174 contacts, 74 pursued, 24 found—leaves terrible questions about fifty unaccounted women.HISTORICAL CONTEXT AND SOURCES:This episode draws on contemporary Hungarian police records, the detailed account by Austro-Hungarian author Frigyes Karinthy who witnessed the body examinations, court documents from earlier proceedings against Kiss by victims Julianne Paschak and Elizabeth Komeromi, and historical research into World War One-era military hospital conditions in occupied Serbia. The investigation reveals how wartime chaos enabled Kiss's escape and how early twentieth-century record-keeping failures allowed a serial killer to vanish completely.RESOURCES AND FURTHER READING:For listeners interested in exploring this case further, these historically significant sources provide additional context:The Hungarian National Archives maintains police investigation records from the original 1916 Cinkota discovery and subsequent manhuntAcademic research on early twentieth-century matrimonial fraud and lonely hearts schemes in Austro-Hungarian newspapersMilitary hospital records from WWI-era Serbia documenting the typhoid epidemic and identification challenges that enabled Kiss's escapeContemporary newspaper coverage from Budapest publications reporting on the barrel discoveriesRELATED FOUL PLAY EPISODES:If you enjoyed this early twentieth-century Hungarian case, explore these related Foul Play episodes:Season 36, Episode 12: Maria Swanenburg - Another insurance-focused serial killer from the 1880s Netherlands who targeted vulnerable community membersSeason 36, Episode 9: Maria Jeanneret - Swiss poisoner who exploited positions of trust to prey on isolated victimsSeason 36, Episode 15: Karl Denke - German serial killer who evaded detection through community respectability until the 1920sFoul Play is hosted by Shane Waters and Wendy Cee.
