Our story tonight is called Return to the Chalet, Part 3, and it is, for now, the last in this series. It's a story about a trek through the snow to the home of a friend, it's also about French Toast and roasted potatoes, a snoring dog beside the fire, bird feeders and twinkle lights, lighted windows seen from a far and someplace safe to wait out the storm.

Nestled in the countryside of Kent, England, is a quaint little village known as Pluckley. Dating back centuries, the town is a place some never want to leave—earning it the reputation of “The Most Haunted Village in England.” At least 12 different ghosts have been spotted around town regularly—and in the 1950s one author began uncovering the ghosts' true identities.For a full list of sources, please visit: sosupernaturalpodcast.com/haunted-pluckley-villageSo Supernatural is an Audiochuck and Crime House production.

As a special needs mom, wanting a break can feel complicated.It's not just about logistics. It's not just about finding someone “qualified enough.”A lot of the time, it's the fear underneath it all—the fear of something going wrong, the fear that no one could possibly care for your child the way you do.In this episode, I'm talking about why building a “village” is often less about other people stepping up and more about what's happening inside you when you even consider asking for help.

How do you teach stranger danger to autistic kids — without creating fear?In this episode of the Not Your Average Autism Mom Podcast, Shannon Urquiola dives into a topic so many parents worry about but rarely feel confident navigating. Inspired by a question from a follower, Valencia Shannon, this episode explores what “stranger danger” really looks like for autistic children and why traditional advice often falls short.Shannon walks you through: Why autistic kids experience safety, fear, and impulse control differentlyHow to teach safe vs. unsafe situations instead of relying on fear-based messagingReal life scenarios you can practice with your child in public, at school and onlineThe very real dangers of online gaming, social platforms and sextortionWhy supervision and monitoring are not about control — they're about protectionShannon also shares personal stories about her son Jordan, including why, at 29, safety planning and supervision are still necessary due to impulse control and lack of fear — and how meeting your child where they are is not failure, it's love.

When becoming a new parent, it is crucial to have a community you can count on to not only understand what you're going through, but also to show up for you. This is true for both pregnancy and postpartum… and also parenthood beyond. In this episode of Yoga | Birth | Babies, I'm joined by Shai Tamary. Shai is a community builder, program strategist, and yoga teacher based in New York City. She is the founder of The Nest, a grassroots perinatal community. A new mom herself, she is passionate about reimagining the perinatal period not as a time of isolation, but as an opportunity to build lasting village-like support.

Our story tonight is called Return to the Chalet, Part 2 , and it's picking up where Part 1 ended, at a little cabin at the foot of a snow-covered slope. It's also about waking without an alarm and coffee by the fire, saunas and hot stones, soft hoodies and not having to decide anything, quiet exchanges, and the achievement of letting yourself receive care without argument.

STOP BEING SO SERIOUS | Why the Village Needs to PlayWhen did growing up mean we had to stop playing?In this episode of Building The Village, I challenge the idea that adulthood must be serious, rigid, and joyless. Because the truth is — the village needs play to survive.Play isn't childish. It's childlike.And when communities lose joy, curiosity, and imagination, they lose connection.In this episode, we explore:• Why adults stopped playing• The difference between being childlike and childish• How play reduces stress, builds trust, and strengthens relationships• Why laughter is one of the fastest ways to create belonging• How bringing play back can heal individuals and communitiesIf you've been feeling burned out, disconnected, or stuck in survival mode — this conversation is for you.✨ Because building better villages starts with joy. ✨---------------------

Ever seen a town pop up on a frozen bay? We sat down with Donnie Crowder of Hot Box Huts to explore how a three-hut hobby became “Hogtown,” a 52‑hut ice fishing village on Lake Simcoe built around safety, comfort, and catching more fish. An early cold snap laid down a rare shelf of white ice, and Donnie explains how that milky layer creates low light cover in three feet of water—turning the shallows into one giant dock where perch and pike cruise all day.We dig into the nuts and bolts of an on‑ice operation: staging lightweight huts during a soft start, running covered sleighs for short, safe rides, and staffing the village so someone actually knocks on the door to help you dial in your rig. Donnie shares the “runway” layout along a gradual drop that tracks how perch move from shallow to deep, why schooling behaviour makes efficiency everything, and how a beaded spoon out-fishes bait when the school arrives. For families and first‑timers, sight fishing in clear, shallow water becomes an instant tutorial. For gearheads, underwater cameras reveal tiny tells—gentle flares, bloodworm rooting—that change your presentation and your results.Predators add drama and insight. Pike ride high, hunting shadows under the ice, so quick‑strike rigs set inches below the surface can be startling and deadly. We also get into harvest choices on a heavily fished but healthy bay, why leaving 14‑inch breeders helps the biomass, and how short modern seasons compare to those in the ‘80s and ‘90s. Donnie's tech philosophy is practical: live scope for specific situations, cameras for learning, and a 24/7 YouTube lake cam that doubles as a safety update and a front‑row seat to passing bald and golden eagles.If you've wanted a winter day that feels welcoming instead of punishing, this one's for you. Warm huts, clean washrooms, kids fed through a new on‑ice food partner, and nonstop lessons that make your next drop better than the last. Hit play to learn how to read white ice vs black ice, set up for perch that won't sit still, and turn a frozen bay into a place your whole crew can love.Enjoyed this conversation? Follow and subscribe, share it with a friend who needs a winter adventure, and leave a review to help more anglers and families find the show.

Each season the 70MM REJECTED crew unearths movies that haven't been selected by The Village and/or The Hosts of 70MM to make sure they get their moment in the sun. ACK! With the holidays season upon us, we wanted to make sure we gave everyone some time off, especially the amazing ladies working hard for wintHER. So we went back to the early days of the village when Paul, groogruxdave and Kev did an impromptu Mars Attacks watch along and posted it to an old podcast feed. ACK! We unearthed that recording to let you hear the awful audio from groogrux (glass case of conference room emotion, lol) and how Kev and Paul have always been audio perfection and movie insiders themselves. Don't forget to listen in to Kevs amazing Austin Danger Pod, you really should be by now.AND the new hot pod on the block, Laurie Strode Trap House, for all the 21st century grime/horror/alt media we have maybe tried to forget, but secretly we crave....Shout out to The Village and the hosts of 70MM for making a most excellent community.

As we close out an extraordinary year of Fostering Change, Rob Scheer welcomes Becky Santoro, Co-Founder and Executive Director of Foster Village Charlotte — a nonprofit reshaping foster care by focusing on the people raising and supporting children every day: foster, kinship, and birth families.A former educator and foster parent herself, Becky witnessed firsthand how overwhelmed and isolated caregivers can feel. She also saw something powerful: children thrive when the adults caring for them are supported, equipped, and connected. That realization led her to co-found Foster Village Charlotte in 2018 — a community-driven model that has since expanded nationwide through a growing network of Foster Village affiliates.Today, Becky and her team not only serve families across the Charlotte region, but also coach and mentor emerging affiliates across the U.S., helping communities build their own “village” of wraparound care. From practical resources to emotional connection to dignified, trauma-informed visitation spaces, Foster Village is reimagining what it means to care for children by caring for the caregivers who love them.

Born into poverty in Bihar's Jamui district, Briju has carved an extraordinary artistic journey, quite literally, from clay. Trained at Jawahar Navodaya Vidyalaya and Banaras Hindu University, the fine arts graduate chose to return to his village, where his lifelike sculptures now attract commissions from across India and countries including the US and Japan. His work also adorns the Jharkhand Chief Minister's residence, reflecting art rooted in resilience and purpose.

Our story tonight is called Return to the Chalet, and it is a sort of "season two" of a fan-favorite series from a few winter's back called Winter Getaway though you don't need to listen to that three-parter to find your place in this one. It's a story about a trip out of town after the bustle of the holidays settles down. It's also about landmarks spotted from the highway, a plate of black and white cookies made with love, the moment the sun dips below the cloud cover on its way to setting, and the cumulative effect of giving yourself what you need when you need it.

Ian A Anderson in conversation with David Eastaugh https://frootsmag.com/ https://www.ianaanderson.com/ https://ghostsfromthebasement.bandcamp.com/ Anderson first performed in his home town of Weston-super-Mare as a member of the Backwater Jook Band and came to prominence as a member of the Bristol based country blues scene of the mid to late 1960s, performing live and on record, both solo, with Al Jones and Elliott Jackson as the trio "Anderson Jones Jackson", and as a duo with Mike Cooper.  After two EPs, he recorded his first album, Stereo Death Breakdown, as Ian Anderson's Country Blues Band, which was released by Liberty/United Artists in 1969. In December 1969, with John Turner, he conceived the record label The Village Thing, for which he was also a producer.

Today, anthropologist Professor Anru Lee is joining NBN as a guest host to interview me, Suvi Rautio, on my new book, The Invention of Tradition in China: Story of a Village and a Nation Remade published by Palgrave in 2024. In China, heritage projects are sprouting across the countryside carrying the promise of Xi Jinping's “Chinese dream” as a call for the great revival and rejuvenation of the nation. Suvi's book unravels the workings behind these promises through the story of remaking Meili, a Dong ethnic minority village nestled along the margins of China, into a “Traditional Village” heritage site. In a past riven by deep political and societal disruptions, Meili becomes a medium for contesting, mediating and continuously inventing representations of tradition that aligns with the Chinese Communist Party's mission towards continuity and stability. The outcome is an original depiction of the compromises that shape heritage-making in a rural ethnic corner of China. Filled with rich, fine-grained narrative and analysis, Suvi Rautio offers a unique lens to complicate the narrative of how heritage projects function by demonstrating the politics involved in inventing tradition and its far-reaching consequences in contemporary China today.

It was Christmastime — a season of peace, light, and goodwill — which made the slow unraveling of their minds all the more disturbing.IN THIS EPISODE: Despite being in the middle of the first World War, on Christmas Day, 1914 British and German soldiers sang carols together, exchanged gifts with the enemy combatants, and supposedly even played a soccer game against each other in order to celebrate the holiday. (The Great War's Christmas Truce) *** The case was so mysterious it was even featured on TV's “Unsolved Mysteries” and “America's Most Wanted”: who committed the Christmas murder of Latricia White? And what happened to Lee and Chance Wackerhagen? (An Unsolved Christmas Murder Mystery) *** We're so used to seeing old St. Nick showing up with a big bag of toys for the kiddies – but what if he arrived with another bag full of switches for your parents to use the whole year through if you were on his naughty list? We'll look back at when Santa wasn't purely jolly and jovial, and when he arrived to dole out both presents and punishment! (Santa's Naughty List) *** The Los Feliz murder mansion became the site of a horrifying and sad Christmas tragedy for one California family. (Christmas At The Los Feliz Murder Mansion) *** A haunting holiday mystery took place in England in 1916 when a young bride simply disappeared without a trace. (The Vanishing Christmas Bride) *** A man tries to take on supernatural forces – and ends up as an undead creature who appears as a terrifying Yuletide spirit.
