Christmas , the lights, the tree, the star on top, caroling, decorations everywhere the second Thanksgiving ends. But how many of us actually know where any of that came from?In this episode, we start pulling at the threads behind some of the most familiar Christmas traditions — the ones we rarely question because they've become so normal. Why do we bring evergreen trees into our homes every December? Why do we cover them in lights? Why does a star almost always end up at the very top? And how did caroling become a thing in the first place?As it turns out, a lot of these traditions didn't start together, didn't start quietly, and didn't always mean what they mean now. Some were once considered dangerous. Others were controversial. A few were even banned outright at different points in history. And many of them changed shape as they moved from country to country and century to century.Along the way, we look at how symbolism, religion, folklore, technology, and even marketing quietly influenced how Christmas is celebrated today — often in ways most people have never heard about. From candlelit trees to early electric light displays, from medieval winter rituals to Victorian reinventions, the holiday we recognize now is the result of a long, messy evolution.This isn't a retelling of the Christmas story, and it's not an attempt to ruin anyone's holiday. It's a look behind the curtain at how familiar traditions come to feel ancient, unquestionable, and universal — even when they aren't.If you've ever wondered why Christmas looks the way it does, this episode might change how you see the season… or at least make you think twice the next time you plug in the lights.www.patreon.com/theconspiracypodcast

Thank you for joining us for today's worship service! Pastor Chris shares insights from the story of Zechariah and Elizabeth, the parents of John the Baptist. Zechariah and Elizabeth were old and childless when God gave them a child, and Zechariah had trouble believing this joyous news. But for Zechariah, and for us, God's promises can be trusted, God's purposes for us are good, it is never too late for God to act, and we are never too far away for God to reach us. If you prayed to make Jesus your Lord today, we want to rejoice with you! If you would want someone to pray with you, we are eager to do so! If you would like more information about our church, we're want to share. Please text the word "NEXT" to 407-77 so we can engage with you.

Long before Santa slid down chimneys, other figures roamed the winter nights — and they weren't bringing presents. They were bringing punishment.IN THIS EPISODE: ‘Tis the season for not only reindeer, grinches and magical snowmen but also fearless children, negligent parents and dumb thieves. “Home Alone” may be the first Christmas movie that comes to mind upon hearing that description, but it turns out there's a long and storied tradition of true stories of children left alone around the holidays matching wits against would-be robbers. (Home Alone) *** What would you think if you received a Christmas card in the mail that had a picture of a dead bird on the cover? Not very festive, is it? But that's not what people believed in the past. For a while, a dead bird was synonymous with saying “Merry Christmas!” (Merry Christmas, Here's a Dead Bird) *** A woman leaves her family to go Christmas shopping at the last minute… and disappears forever. (Mom Vanishes While Christmas Shopping) *** Christmas fun isn't all about Santa, his reindeer, and a magical snowman come to life thanks to a hat. There are some downright terrifying yuletide monsters that might make you want to stay behind locked doors this year.

Filmmaker Gus Van Sant joins Bill Maher for a candid conversation that pulls back the curtain on what it really takes to survive in Hollywood. Van Sant opens up about the scrappy, crowdfunded reality behind Dead Man's Wire, studio politics, and why critics may have saved his career. The two dig into his iconic films (Drugstore Cowboy, My Own Private Idaho, To Die For, Psycho) and trace the lineage of comedy from Lenny Bruce to Saturday Night Live – along with the strange psychology of actors and directors on set, including a jaw-dropping story about literally throwing rocks to get a performance.

Dans cet épisode, découvrez les origines extraordinaires de l'ordinateur ! Si vous connaissez un tout petit peu le domaine, vous savez que l'informatique est née dans les années 40. C'est tout à fait vrai… à un siècle près ! Car c'est en Angleterre, pendant la première moitié du 19ème siècle, que le premier prototype d'ordinateur a été inventé. Et c'est à la même époque qu'a vécu le tout premier programmeur de l'histoire. Sauf que ce programmeur… était une programmeuse. Son nom : Augusta Ada King, comtesse de Lovelace, plus connue sous le nom de Ada Lovelace. D'une mère au foyer au génie des mathématiques, découvrez sa True Story. Une machine révolutionnaire Le 5 juin 1833, une petite soirée a lieu dans les quartiers chics de Londres. Elle réunit des aristocrates, des scientifiques et des libre-penseurs. On discute du trône d'Angleterre, on fait de la poésie, des mondanités… Il fait chaud, et les invités commencent à fatiguer. Mais il y a quelque chose, ce soir, que personne ne veut rater : une nouvelle invention révolutionnaire. Sentant l'impatience grandir chez ses convives, Charles Babbage, l'hôte de la soirée, réclame le silence...

I had planned to take this week and next off but I can't leave y'all hanging without your fix on Christmas! This week I'm bringing you a special mini fix episode about the Christmas Truce of 1914. This remarkable ceasefire that happened spontaneously all along the Western Front during the first winter of World War I has shocked and inspired the masses ever since. But despite tons of eyewitness accounts and tangible evidence like letters, autographs, and photos, there are many who refuse to believe that the Christmas Truce ever happened. So, what do you think?

In this message from the True Story Christmas series, Pastor Trey Hildebrant explores the invitation of faith through the life of John the Baptist, the one chosen by God to prepare the way for Jesus. Before the manger, before the ministry of Christ, God was already at work through faithful obedience, quiet waiting, and a willingness to trust His promises. The story of John the Baptist reminds us that faith is not about visibility or recognition but about saying yes to God's purpose even when the full picture is still unfolding. Through Luke 1, we see how God works behind the scenes, using faith filled obedience to accomplish His redemptive plan. This message challenges us to consider how God may be inviting us to trust Him more deeply, to believe His promises, and to live faithfully as part of His greater story this Christmas season.

It's the weekend before Christmas and millions of people around the world are eagerly awaiting the arrival of Father Christmas. For many, it's feels like he's always been there, but where exactly did he come from? Turns out, it's been a pretty wild ride for Old Saint Nick, one that involves prostitution in the 3rd century, pagan winter feasting, and even the creation of New York City. And what if it transpires the loveable, jolly figure we know today, was formally a thin, wayward drunk? It's the origin story you thought you knew, one that spans thousands of years of history, and countless reinventions. How well do we really know St. Nicholas of Myra, Sinterklaas or Kris Kringle?Written by: Waldemar Januszczak, Chief art critic of The Sunday Times.Read by: Shabnam Grewal.Producer: Dave Creasey.Photo: GettyThis podcast was brought to you thanks to subscribers of The Times and The Sunday Times.

But this week, Dr. Jacobs takes you beyond the familiar Sunday school narrative to explore the robust early Christian tradition surrounding Mary's birth, her betrothal to the elderly widower Joseph, and the supernatural drama unfolding behind the scenes. This episode examines what the Church Fathers believed about the devil's frantic attempts to thwart the Incarnation, from his watchful surveillance of Israel's virgins to Herod's demonic massacre of the innocents. Dr. Jacobs traces the cosmic war between the powers of light and darkness, revealing how God orchestrated an elaborate divine ruse to veil the Messiah from Satan's gaze. Drawing from sources like the Gospel of James, Irenaeus, Gregory of Nyssa, and John Chrysostom, this deep dive recovers the fuller Christmas story that shaped Christian understanding for centuries.All the links: Substack: https://nathanajacobs.substack.com/Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/thenathanjacobspodcastWebsite: https://www.nathanajacobs.com/X: https://x.com/NathanJacobsPodSpotify: https://open.spotify.com/show/0hSskUtCwDT40uFbqTk3QSApple Podcast: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/the-nathan-jacobs-podcastFacebook: https://www.facebook.com/nathanandrewjacobsAcademia: https://vanderbilt.academia.edu/NathanAJacobs

Christmas decorations are meant to be cheerful — but some have been anything but. Over the years, certain holiday decorations have turned out to be creepy, hazardous, and even deadly. This episode begins with some of the strangest and most dangerous examples. https://www.epa.gov/radtown/radioactivity-antiques?utm Many classic Christmas songs have surprising backstories. Brenda Lee was only 13 when she recorded Rockin' Around the Christmas Tree. Have Yourself a Merry Little Christmas was tossed in the trash before becoming a holiday staple. Music journalist Annie Zaleski joins me to share these and many other stories. She is author of This Is Christmas, Song by Song: The Stories Behind 100 Holiday Hits (https://amzn.to/3ZomPBn). There's a lot of myth and speculation surrounding The Twelve Days of Christmas. We take a closer look at where the song came from, what it was really about, and how much all those gifts would actually cost if you bought them today. https://www.smithsonianmag.com/smart-news/12-facts-about-12-days-christmas-180967569/ PLEASE SUPPORT OUR SPONSORS!

In this wildly entertaining and unconventional episode of The Unapologetic Man Podcast, host Mark Sing tells a gripping, cinematic story about a prison escape that blends real events with fictionalized storytelling — and reveals how seduction, psychology, and long-term strategy played a critical role in breaking free. Based on true prison escape cases, this episode walks you through a detailed narrative of planning, loyalty, deception, and the psychological dynamics of attraction under extreme circumstances. Mark breaks down how trust is built, how influence works over time, and how understanding human desire can open doors most men never even see. The Youtube Channel I got this story from: PLAN: ESCAPE Key Takeaways: - Why most prison escapes fail — and what actually makes one succeed. - How seduction works as a long-term psychological strategy, not a quick trick. - Why having allies on the outside is essential for any major life escape. - Lessons on loyalty, preparation, and staying calm under pressure.   Key Timestamps: [00:00:00] – Episode intro and preview [00:00:23] – This prison escape story is based on real events [00:01:44] – Mark the jewel thief, sentenced to 20 years in jail [00:03:39] – Meeting your bro and forming an unbreakable alliance [00:05:50] – The prison escape plan and tunneling through the ceiling [00:11:30] – Using seduction to gain outside help [00:20:51] – Final escape night and getting out undetected [00:26:30] – The getaway, disguises, and crossing the border [00:29:35] – Aftermath, lessons learned, and final thoughts [00:34:19] – Episode Outro   Connect With Mark: Apply for Mark's 3-Month Coaching Program: https://coachmarksing.com/coaching/ Check Out The Perks Program: https://coachmarksing.com/perks/ Email: CoachMarkSing@Gmail.com Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/coachmarksing/   About The Unapologetic Man Podcast The Unapologetic Man Podcast is your resource for mastering dating, attraction, and relationships from a confident, masculine perspective.

Edward Ford and Alan Chiasson came to Afghanistan with long résumés in uniform and out. Ford was a Force Recon Marine with combat tours in the Gulf War, Somalia, Iraq, and Afghanistan before moving into high-end security contracting. Chiasson was a Navy Hospital Corpsman and Texas paramedic who'd spent years providing high-risk medical support on PSD and convoy details in Iraq and Afghanistan. When the private security firm SOC (Special Operations Consulting) expanded its mobile operations in Afghanistan, both men ended up on armored Ford F-550 gun trucks running some of the most dangerous roads in the country. At first, their teams hauled critical supplies—ammo, fuel, food, equipment—to isolated Special Forces sites and small outposts the regular military couldn't cover. Then SOC picked up the Department of Defense contract to move something that sounded almost ordinary: the mail. Ford, Chiasson, and their teammates suddenly became the unofficial “Pony Express” of Afghanistan, hauling letters and care packages from Kabul and Bagram along the notorious Ring Road to places like Ghazni, Sharana, Orgun-E, and tiny dirt compounds with nothing but Hesco walls and a few tents. Troops took the mail for granted; few ever thought about the chain of convoys and gun trucks that got a letter from a stateside mailbox to a cot in Kandahar. Postcards Through Hell tells that story from the inside. The “Pony Express” ran four teams in a three-on, one-off rotation so three could be on the road at any time. One team took the long hauls, another ran the shorter Kabul ring route while standing QRF, and a third trained, refit, and got ready to swap in. A “good” day might mean an 18-hour, thousand-kilometer push with no major incidents—what they jokingly called the “Thousand Kilometer Club.” Most days weren't like that. They drove flat-bottom F-550s with level-seven armor and twin turrets, strong against small arms but vulnerable to anything placed directly underneath. Once the Taliban figured out that weakness, a well-buried mine or IED under the chassis could flip a truck or tear it in half. The book is anchored in specific days and events. Ford saved incident reports, op orders, and run paperwork; Chiasson kept a journal. Together they rebuilt a timeline that lets them write, “On April 30 we were here; on May 1 this happened,” instead of “sometime that spring.” Around those convoy stories they layer the wider war: the Camp Chapman suicide bombing; Special Forces “kill teams” at outposts like Ramrod; Italian forces paying the Taliban not to attack them, which meant somebody else—often the Pony Express—became the target. They were there when other contractor convoys got hit, when friends died in F-550s blown apart by stacked anti-tank mines, and when gun trucks limped back into Kabul with wounded men inside and burned-out hulks left behind on the road. Their daily life was built around a simple idea: keep your brothers alive. When they weren't running missions, they were on QRF. When they weren't on QRF, they were working out. When they weren't working out, they were training. They ate together, lived on top of each other in cramped villas and compounds, and used the long Afghan “fighting season”—April through October—to sort out who really belonged there. The easy-sounding mail run weeded people out fast. Some new hires lasted one fighting season, some one mission, some one week. Others stayed for years, until they hit what Ford calls “the wall”—that private moment when you look at a body on a slab, or feel age and accumulated blast damage catching up with you, and decide it's time to go home. Postcards Through Hell doesn't ignore the business side of contracting. Ford and Chiasson talk frankly about companies weighing the cost of vehicle upgrades against death-benefit payouts, replacing seasoned expatriate drivers with cheaper local nationals, and relying on Afghan “expediters” whose loyalties sometimes ran in more than one direction.  The story doesn't end when the convoys stop. The contract itself ran, under different companies, into 2016, and Ford and Chiasson had to cut whole chapters from the book because of classified work and units involved.  At heart, Postcards Through Hell is a book about a very unglamorous, absolutely vital piece of America's longest war.  We're grateful to UPMC for Life  for sponsoring this event!

Bill Maher sits down with Oscar-winning director Barry Levinson for a fast and funny masterclass in storytelling. Levinson revisits the Diner years and the “controlled chaos” of getting real performances – why loose, actor-driven rhythm can beat perfect dialogue, and how ensemble films changed the game. From there, it's a hop through Hollywood history: Robert De Niro's work ethic and the behind-the-scenes realities of building Rain Man during a writers strike. Maher and Levinson also go big-picture – why comedy ages faster than music, what's been lost in today's committee-driven studios, and a darkly hilarious debate about AI, jobs, and why machines still can't do human funny.

One of the most troubling aspects of cult dynamics is the way they generate self‑reinforcing histories that can become chaotic and fragmented, leaving individuals disoriented within the broader narrative. We need knowledgeable guides who can help us navigate these stories while providing a grounding in their historical context. I wrote Chapter Three of my book, The Cult of Trump, about the parallels with Jones, Moon, and Hubbard. Don Lattin, this week's podcast guest, concurred, though he personally likened Trump more closely in his mind to Jim Jones, whose leadership culminated in the historic tragedy at Jonestown. Lattin is a long-established and award-winning religion reporter. His work has been published in The New York Times, The Wall Street Journal, and The San Francisco Chronicle. Both of us agreed that Trump exhibits traits of malignant narcissism and appears to be steering the United States toward escalating threats and harms.   The MAGA movement itself is a cult, is led by cults, and has demented authoritarian leadership written all over it. Don Lattin is a journalist who has specialized in writing about religions, cults, psychedelic history, cultural norms, and other fascinating topics since the 1970s. He's written seven books, including Jesus Freaks – a True Story of Murder and Madness on the Evangelical Edge and Changing Our Minds: Psychedelic Sacraments and the New Psychotherapy. He is also the author of The Harvard Psychedelic Club: How Timothy Leary, Ram Dass, Huston Smith, and Andrew Weil Killed the Fifties and Ushered in a New Age for America. I had the great pleasure of listening to his Substack channel recently and am honored to bring him on for an episode of Cults, Culture & Coercion. Learn more about your ad choices.

This week Mike sits down with entrepreneur Chuck Cuda—a man who transformed a life-altering setback into a multimillion-dollar comeback. Chuck's journey begins with a single decision that landed him in prison after he refused to testify against friends in an illegal sports-betting case. But it was in a prison cell on Thanksgiving Day where he experienced the wake-up call that reshaped his entire life. From that moment, accountability became his superpower. Chuck rebuilt everything from the ground up. He went on to close over $200 million in commercial real estate deals, mastering the fundamentals of discipline, prospecting, and relationship-driven success. His ambition then carried him into the fast-evolving cannabis industry, where he expanded an operation from 5 to 22 licenses across three states—turning major financial challenges into profitability. Driven by purpose, Chuck also shares his passion for philanthropy, inspired by his father's battle with non-Hodgkin's lymphoma. Through the OPES Charitable Foundation, he has helped raise more than $3 million for cancer research. His daily affirmations, leadership philosophy, and belief in limitless potential offer a blueprint for anyone looking to rebuild their life or elevate their mindset.   IN THIS EPISODE:

In this message Pastor Trey Hildebrant invites us to slow down during the Christmas season and rediscover the true story that gives faith its power. Walking through Mary's encounter with the angel in Luke 1, we see that faith is not blind certainty or perfect understanding but humble trust in the God who is Most High and always at work beyond what we can see. The Christmas story reminds us that God initiates our rescue and invites us into a real relationship with Him where doubts can be brought honestly and belief can grow deeply. When we choose to trust that nothing is impossible with God and draw near to Him in humility and prayer, faith moves from head knowledge to heart transformation and begins to reshape who we are and how we live.

Author Charles Dickens was searching for a story to revive his career, pay off his debts, and bring hope to others. In 1843 he wrote the Christmas classic, “A Christmas Carol.” In part 2 of our “Christmas at the Movies” series, we'll take a look at Dicken's story in the movie, “The Man Who Invented Christmas.” Dicken's story is one of hope, but there is a truer story that brings real hope to us in the darkness. That's what we'll explore in this message.

Ana Kasparian joins Bill Maher for a wild Club Random ride that swerves from Armenian moms with rolling pins and post-coital crossword puzzles to explosive debates on Israel-Gaza, trans rights, and California chaos. They spar thoughtfully on the AI job apocalypse and crime reforms gone wrong, Ana gets personal about her pandemic marriage, leaving the progressive bubble, and why she chose empathy over endless political rage. They clash hard on Israel-Gaza but never shut each other down– proving you can disagree fiercely and still respect the hell out of each other. Smart, funny, unfiltered, and surprisingly vulnerable.

Visit https://podcastchoices.com/adchoices ABOUT CLUB RANDOM Bill Maher rewrites the rules of podcasting the way he did in television in this series of one on one, hour long conversations with a wide variety of unexpected guests in the undisclosed location called Club Random. There's a whole big world out there that isn't about politics and Bill and his guests—from Bill Burr and Jerry Seinfeld to Jordan Peterson, Quentin Tarantino and Neil DeGrasse Tyson—talk about all of it.  For advertising opportunities please email: PodcastPartnerships@Studio71us.com ABOUT BILL MAHER Bill Maher was the host of “Politically Incorrect” (Comedy Central, ABC) from 1993-2002, and for the last fourteen years on HBO's “Real Time,” Maher's combination of unflinching honesty and big laughs have garnered him 40 Emmy nominations. Maher won his first Emmy in 2014 as executive producer for the HBO series, “VICE.” In October of 2008, this same combination was on display in Maher's uproarious and unprecedented swipe at organized religion, “Religulous.” Maher has written five bestsellers: “True Story,” “Does Anybody Have a Problem with That? Politically Incorrect's Greatest Hits,” “When You Ride Alone, You Ride with Bin Laden,” “New Rules: Polite Musings from a Timid Observer,” and most recently, “The New New Rules: A Funny Look at How Everybody But Me Has Their Head Up Their Ass.” FOLLOW CLUB RANDOM https://www.clubrandom.com https://www.facebook.com/Club-Random-101776489118185 https://twitter.com/clubrandom_ https://www.instagram.com/clubrandompodcast https://www.tiktok.com/@clubrandompodcast FOLLOW BILL MAHER https://www.billmaher.com https://twitter.com/billmaher https://www.instagram.com/billmaher Learn more about your ad choices.
