My Guest: Angie Hicks, co-founder of Angie's List (now called Angi). She started the company at just 23, going door-to-door as a self-described introvert and non-salesperson, and turned it into a national platform trusted by millions. During our conversation, we discuss what it takes to lead with authenticity and build lasting impact.  Key Learnings Lead by listening and showing up. Whether it's knocking on doors as a 23-year-old or meeting employees during office hours as CEO, Angie reminds us that being present, paying attention, and seeking feedback is the heart of leadership. Focus on people and learning. Angie's career filter is simple: Do I like the people I'm working with? Am I learning new things? If yes, keep going. If not, it's time to reconsider. Excellence isn't just about results. It's about the environment and growth around you. Take your work seriously, but not yourself. Confidence, humility, and authenticity go hand in hand. Angie shows us that you can be ambitious and driven without losing sight of the human side of leadership. From Angie... My co-founder, Bill Osterle, came to me when I was a senior in college and said, "Hey, I've got a crazy idea. Your parents are gonna hate it. But why don't we start a business?" I talked to my parents, talked to my friends, and then I ended up talking to my grandfather who was incredibly conservative. He grew up in the Depression, very fiscally responsible. "What do you have to lose? You're 22, your parents aren't going to let you starve, and you're not trying to support a family, so why don't you try it?" I was so taken aback by his response that that comment was probably what pushed me over the edge. I think young people can do this a lot, as we tend to overthink decisions. Sometimes people see things in you that you don't see in yourself, and you've gotta have a little faith. What better time to have a little faith than when you're young and carefree? Work hard, and things will come your way. We started in 1995. It was an offline world. We started as a call-in service and a monthly newsletter. The first name of the company was Columbus Neighbors. We left it like that for a year, and people just didn't get it. They thought the newsletter was the list. We decided to do a rebranding nine months in. We had two options: The List or Jackie's List (Jackie was the mother of one of our investors who knew everybody). At the last minute, Bill said maybe it should be Angie's List. "She does answer the phone." Going door to door was hard. There was a lot of crying, I will be honest. I was selling something that wasn't concrete. "Hey, so when you need a plumber, you're gonna call me and I'm gonna help you find a plumber. And then when you hire someone, you're gonna tell me about it." I viewed it as a numbers game. I need to knock on so many doors every day, and that's just what I'm going to do. Hopefully, if I stay on my pitch and I knock on enough doors, I will sell the right number of memberships. If I was selling one or two memberships a day, that's great. No business was gonna be built on me selling one or two memberships a day, but that's where we were. Sometimes you have to do the hard stuff. Sometimes you have to do the stuff you're not good at, and you have to figure out ways to work around it. Because no matter what you do in your career, there's gonna be stuff you don't love. I broke it down by like, I'm gonna do it for these two hours. I'm a believer in the you can do anything for a year philosophy. I could do anything for an hour a day. So you have to kind of disconnect and treat it that way, as this is like taking my medicine. But you do win every once in a while. And it is fun when you win. It is fun when you sell something. The day Patty gave me her church directory was the best day ever. You gotta celebrate the little wins as well in life. Starting a business is a long journey. It is more of a marathon than a sprint. There's usually not this burst of momentum where everything rolls your way. It's building blocks along the way. If you don't celebrate those little wins and you only focus on, oh, I'm not gonna be happy until we're at 10,000 members, that could be years. You need things to keep you going every day. Patty lived near Bill, so she kinda liked him too, but I think there was a little bit of entrepreneur in Patty. Patty needed nothing from us. She had lived in Columbus her entire life. She had renovated a 1920s house. All she was able to do was give. She knew everybody. But I think she just loved the spirit. You don't know whether that's door seven, door one, door 57, you don't know. But there is typically a breakthrough. Staying true and persistent, you know, there probably weren't a lot of women starting businesses going door to door in 1995, and Patty was like, look, she's got some gumption. She's tackling a business that in many ways is a man's world. Construction is a man's world. Whether that's starting a business or finding the right boss, or finding the right position, that same lesson is the same. I talk to young people, I say, Hey, you can do marketing anywhere. There's any company you can do marketing. When it comes to me... Go where you're gonna be with somebody who believes in you. That's gonna invest in you, because that's actually what's gonna change your trajectory. It's not the name on the company that's gonna change your trajectory. It's actually who's got your back, who's coaching you, that's going to make the biggest difference. The next inflection point for me was when we opened in Cleveland the year after that. It was the first market we had opened from scratch. I remember I went one morning and picked up the newspaper, picked up the Plain Dealer at the bagel shop across the street from my office. And there it was, our little two-by-three ad that said, "Tired of lousy service" with some clip art. I was so excited. I was like, This is amazing. We're in Cleveland. This is gonna be so great. And then I remember telling Bill, "We're gonna get so many calls." And he's like, "We're gonna get so many calls." And I don't think we got any calls that day. The transition from individual contributor to leading others was a horrible transition. It's actually really hard. I tell people that all the time because if you think about who do we promote in companies, we promote really strong individual performers. The skills that make us really good individual performers do not necessarily make us good leaders, managers, et cetera, because it's actually a whole different skillset. I was that overachiever kind of controller, let me just do it type person. You have to actually train yourself to not do those things because no one's ever going to be successful and learn if you're just over there stepping in. The early days when I was young and trying to manage people, not good. Not good at all. I ended up leaving for a year and a half to go to business school. I was pretty burnt out on the business, and I probably would've left the business had I not gone. It gave me a chance to reflect on where I've been and step back. Now I understand, I'm not in the pressure cooker. I can see where I've mistepped. I left when I was 25, three years in. The business had gotten big enoug,h and we decided to bring in a CEO because the 22- 23-year-old was kinda like, maybe we need some leadership here. My co-founder joined full-time at that point and came in as CEO. I joke around, I'm like, take a break. I was still keeping the books. The TV commercial was a hundred thousand dollars, which I had to convince our board on. I was like, look, either we try this or we just close Cleveland because there is no scenario here that we're gonna build a business with door-to-door sales at the rate we're moving. We basically took everything on Cleveland, which was $100,000. I would've been devastated had it failed. People started calling. I was so excited. Then all of a sudden it just kinda went bananas. You realize there's a lot of people with this problem. Doors slammed in my face at that point, not as much of an issue. And then we ended up being in Boston and Washington, and a bunch of other cities. Every time we'd go to a city, I'd fly in, and I would open the paper, and I would get all happy. The TV commercials themselves were funny because I can't do anything for fun anymore without seeing myself in the commercial. I did the first one, and they're like, listen, we're just gonna, we're not gonna tell anybody. It's just gonna go on, you know, we're just gonna do it really quietly. I was like, great. Okay, fine. And then it kind of took off. I had young kids at the time. I wouldn't let us advertise on kids' shows. There was never us on Disney Channel or Nickelodeon because I didn't want that. But the kids would see me on TV. You know, they would see me doing interviews. It happened for them at such a young age that they just kind of thought that's what parents did. I remember one of my kids coming home in middle school and being like, I can't believe you didn't tell me you were famous because it was finally, the friends had grown up enough that they were like, you know who her mom is, right? I became a little more closed off in my personal life as I became more public. Kids deserve to grow up in a world where they get to be kids and not have to deal with that stuff. In our little town, people were like, Oh yeah, she just lives here. And it became not a thing. It became more relevant to me when I was traveling. I started doing office hours. I did it on Fridays leading into the lunchtime, which, let's be honest, was probably one of the squishiest times of productive work. I was with a group of CEOs the other day, and I actually suggested, just try a little. It doesn't have to be a big thing. Just try a little and see where it takes you. The meetings were anything. It was career advice. What should I do? They might have ideas for the business. Hey, we should go into this line. I remember talking one day to our head of legal, and I was like, you know, I don't get open-door media requests anymore. And she kind of chuckled, and she said, That's because you have them all the time. You allow problems to come to you before they're big problems, so they become less of a thing. I'd rather people bring their concerns internally first and listen to 'em and address 'em when you can. They always come internally first, whether it's from an employee, whether it's from a customer. It's just how we handle those things as to whether they blow up into something bigger. I always tried to give them something in return. They come to talk to me and I'd introduce 'em to someone who would help. I'd open a door for them. To this day, I still love talking to customers. I think we live in a very digital age, and I feel like we don't talk to one another very much. People like people. They need to feel heard and have things resolved. I took that office hours idea, and now I do it with customers, so any pro can sign up and talk to me. Gives me a chance to understand, get a pulse on what's going on. The people on the front line are the ones who are making your brand. The marketing team might make some great social posts and some great TV ads. But many times, the people who are manning the phones or your chats are the ones that are leaving a more lasting impression on your brand than anything else. How do you bring the voice of the customer into the organization? Not everybody in our company is a homeowner. How do you make sure they can understand the customer? What's life like as a small business owner, as a pro? What's it like for a homeowner when something goes awry on their worst day? How do I bring those stories to life? I had to convince myself that it was a good use of time. Busy people who have lots of responsibility are active doers, overachievers, to sit back and talk and listen feels like, Okay, am I moving the needle? It feels a bit too squishy. That's why I would treat it just like some of the other things. I will give it an hour a week. Let's see what happens there. I could see the payoff. I can't go spend 30% of my time doing this, but there is a portion of time that I do dedicate. Feedback is a gift and something you should seek out. But yeah, it doesn't always feel great. One of the hardest pieces of advice I got came at a time when we were actually trying to do a transaction. They said, "You have an executive presence issue." And I was like, what? They said, "You're too nice to everybody. It doesn't help the company." I can't tell you how much that comment just killed me. But then I went out and got an executive coach, and I reflected on it. In many ways, it made me a better CEO. I learned that I could be me and I could still be nice and I could be kind, but there are moments I have to be clear. When I'm looking to promote someone or hire someone, knowing your stuff is super important. You don't want this person, who says, I'm the one who always knows the answer. You want someone who can learn from their team. I spent most of my career running marketing, and marketing moves fast. Some of the youngest members of the team are teaching me more things over the years than even some of the more seasoned marketing people. How are you constantly having a view about learning and staying smart in the trade? The ability to just be a good partner or work with people is important. Your job's not to come in and knock down walls. It's actually to build relationships because you can't do everything yourself. How are you at building cross-department relationships? My advice to recent grads: One of my favorites, take your work very seriously. Be good at what you do. Don't always be looking for that next thing that you gotta go tackle. Do what's in front of you first. Don't take yourself too seriously. You come out, you're like, Oh, I have all of these credentials. I should therefore be able to do these things. Sometimes the envelopes need stuffed and we might all do that together. So don't take yourself too seriously. We're gonna do this together. Be open to feedback and to helping others. Don't be afraid when people suggest things that seem totally counter. I think sometimes we get too rigid in our plans. I use Angie's List as an example. I was supposed to be a consultant. I was supposed to go be a business consultant, but then Bill comes in and says, hey, what about this? I could have easily been a business consultant and had a nice life. But I chose that door. A lot of times, people get a little too narrow in their focus and miss opportunities. So stay open to that. For me, it's all about the people you work with. Working with people that you're learning from, that believe in you, that's all that matters. I overindex there. People ask me, how are you still doing this after 30 years? I ask myself two questions, and if I can answer yes to those two questions, I'm in. If I answer no, I'm out. The two things are: Do I like the people I'm working with, and am I learning new things? When you're as long in your career as I am, you have to dedicate time and effort to learning new things so that you don't become that person that is like, we do this because we've always done it this way. Which I think is just like the worst line ever. Reflection Questions Angie's grandfather asked, "What do you have to lose?" when she was 22 and hesitating about starting a business. What decision are you currently overthinking that you might need to just take a leap on while you're young (or young enough) and the risk is manageable? S She says the skills that make us really good individual performers don't necessarily make us good leaders. If you've recently been promoted or are leading others, what specific "doer" habits do you need to let go of so your team can learn and succeed? Angie stayed at Angi for 30 years by asking herself two questions: "Do I like the people I'm working with?" and "Am I learning new things?" How would you honestly answer those two questions about your current role? If the answer to either is no, what does that tell you?

12-15-2025. "HO! HO! HOLLYWOOD: SANTA CLAUSE IN CLASSIC CINEMA" (118) Long before special effects, CGI snowstorms, and big-budget holiday franchises, it fell to a small but memorable group of performers to embody the warmth, wonder, and whimsy of old St. Nick. Ever wonder about the actors who were called upon to portray Santa Claus in film and TV? These classic Santas weren't just men in red suits — they were character actors, vaudevillians, radio veterans, and Hollywood workhorses who brought their own unique spark to the role, shaping how generations of moviegoers came to imagine Father Christmas. From the twinkle-eyed charmers to the unexpectedly gruff curmudgeons, from the iconic to the nearly forgotten, we're unwrapping the stories behind the earliest portrayals that turned Santa into a cinematic tradition. So settle in with a mug of something warm, hang your stocking, and join us as we explore the jolly, joyful, and sometimes surprisingly complex history of Hollywood's first Santas.

They discussed the administration's goal of “A Home for Every Child” and how Adams plans to achieve that; how and why he plans to "barbecue" much of the regulatory language for states when it comes to federal funding and practice; why the administration has made demands that states roll back policies that are meant to protect LGBTQ+ youth; the role of kinship caregivers; and much more. Thanks to iFoster and Binti for sponsoring this episode of The Imprint Weekly Podcast.Reading RoomIt's Newsmatch season!

In this episode of Bigfoot Society, researcher Marie Dumont returns to share chilling firsthand encounters from deep wilderness investigations across Florida swamps, Mount Hood, and the Olympic Peninsula. What begins as routine field research quickly escalates into unexplainable events: intricate forest structures, possible mind speak communication, unexplained object manipulation, and intense electromagnetic anomalies.The most unforgettable moment unfolds during a nighttime camping trip in the Olympic Peninsula, where multiple researchers experience more than 30 minutes of coordinated Bigfoot vocalizations coming from all directions — howls, whoops, hoots, and eerie cooing sounds echoing through one of the quietest places in the United States. From potential Skunk Ape activity in Florida's Green Swamp to a chilling “Bigfoot roll call” in Washington, this episode dives deep into real eyewitness accounts, Sasquatch behavior patterns, and the mysteries still hidden in North America's wild places.Resources: https://www.midfloridabigfoot.com/about-us

We suggest that the problem is caused by exterior drainage, advising him to extend his downspout and fix any grading issues to relieve water pressure. - Taylor in Michigan reported that her doors were sticking, specifically toward the top, due to swelling. We advise checking the hinges for loose screws and using chalk or dark lipstick on the door edges to identify the exact sticking point before attempting minor adjustments to realign the door in the jam. - Robin was dealing with mold growth coming out of the jets of her jacuzzi tub. We suggest filling the tub with hot water and either bleach (if not on septic) or an environmentally safe dish soap like Simple Green to sanitize the pipes. - Carolyn in Pennsylvania had a lingering musty odor in her kitchen's lazy Susan cabinet after mold grew inside.

Send us a textIn this postgame breakdown, we react to the Giants' loss to the Commanders and focus on the issues that decided the game. Special teams were a major factor, with two missed field goals and a punt return touchdown allowed, completely swinging momentum and leaving the Giants with no margin for error in a divisional matchup.We break down the Giants' struggles against the run, as Washington consistently controlled the ground game, stayed ahead of the chains, and dictated tempo. Missed tackles and breakdowns at the line of scrimmage made it difficult for the defense to get off the field.Offensively, the Giants had a rough start but showed improvement in the second half as the offense found better rhythm and execution. That progress came with serious concern, as the coaching staff called multiple designed quarterback runs for Jaxson Dart, including a goal-line carry that resulted in him being evaluated again for a concussion. This raises real questions about how the coaching staff is protecting a young quarterback.We also highlight Abdul Carter's standout performance, as he recorded a sack, multiple tackles for loss, two forced fumbles, and recovered one of them. His impact was one of the few clear positives in an otherwise frustrating loss.We close by discussing accountability, coaching decisions, and what this game says about the direction of the Giants moving forward. Thank you for watching & for your support.

Mark and Gary break down the mounting tension inside a high-profile Los Angeles grand jury investigation, examining the rare public clash between prosecutors, LAPD, and the medical examiner, what it signals about the strength of the case, and why a major development could come sooner than expected. The conversation then shifts to Washington, where the Supreme Court is weighing a challenge that could upend long-standing campaign finance limits and unleash a new era of political spending ahead of the 2026 midterms. Geragos also unpacks the power dynamics behind the Warner Bros., Netflix, and Ellison media battle, exploring how control of major news platforms could reshape both Hollywood and national politics in the years ahead.Watch Beyond A Reasonable Doubt and all Reasonable Doubt video content on YouTube exclusively at YouTube.com/ReasonableDoubtPodcast and subscribe while you're thereSee Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

A Radical Change in Tactics — James M. Scott — LeMay devises a clandestine, revolutionary operational plan to fundamentally reverse bombing doctrine from high-altitude daylight precision raids to low-altitude nocturnal firebombing operations, ordering B-29 aircraft to execute bombing runs at merely 5,000 feet altitude to evade the destructive jet stream phenomenon while simultaneously transporting substantially increased incendiary weapon payloads. Scottdocuments that LeMay deliberately targets the densely populated working-class district of Asakusa in Tokyo, strategically recognizing that Japan's predominant wooden residential infrastructure constitutes a "wood pile" catastrophically vulnerable to uncontrolled conflagration. Scott emphasizes that LeMay makes this strategically transformative decision unilaterally, deliberately withholding operational details from Washington headquarters, the Joint Chiefs of Staff, and his superior command structure, thereby executing military operations without institutional authorization or oversight from civilian and military leadership. 1931 TOKYO

Tonight's guest is Rob, joining us from Arizona. Back in 1969, on a logging road outside Marysville in Washington State, a late-night party turned into chaos as people fled shouting, running for their cars. Rob and his friends stayed long enough to see three towering figures step out from the tree line, the largest close to eight feet tall. His experiences didn't end in the wilderness. During a 2017 eclipse trip that took him past Area 51, Rob and his friends saw bright camera-flash bursts flicker in different spots across the night sky. And while he was stationed in Japan during his Navy years, he had more than one unsettling encounter with a mysterious woman in traditional dress, appearing suddenly and vanishing just as fast.More information on this episode on the podcast website:https://ufochroniclespodcast.com/ep-364-summer-of-69/Hidden Cults (Promo)It is a documentary-style podcast that digs deep into the world's most extreme, elusive, and explosive fringe groups.

The Context of White Supremacy hosts the weekly Compensatory Call-In 12/13/25. We encourage non-white listeners to dial in with their codified concepts, new terms, observations, research findings, workplace problems or triumphs, and/or suggestions on how best to Replace White Supremacy With Justice ASAP. This weekly broadcast examines current events from across the globe to learn what's happening in all areas of people activity. We cultivate Counter-Racist Media Literacy by scrutinizing journalists' word choices and using logic to deconstruct what is reported as "news." We'll use these sessions to hone our use of terms as tools to reveal truth, neutralize Racists/White people. #ANTIBLACKNESS Hearkening back to the days of slave ships and swashbuckling, eye-patch wearing White pirates, President Trump escalated his conflict with the area of the world known as Venezuela by confiscating one of their ships. All of this falls under the specious rubric of battling narco-terrorism, and many White people seem skeptical of the legality of the president's actions. In Virginia, tackle football coach John Turner remains a fugitive accused of trafficking child pornography and soliciting minors. It seems he may enjoy his holiday season on the lam and not in shackles. In Gus T.'s Washington state, a so-called atmospheric river dumped tons of water on the evergreen state. 100,000 people have been order to evacuate, and the rain keeps falling.

Now, transpose that eternal drama to the gritty arena of modern politics, where Donald J. Trump emerges not as a mere mortal but as a MAGA god, wielding policy like a flaming sword to smite the forces of grievance and dependency. We now have the MAGA BibleThe Left, those self-anointed guardians of equity, have long played the role of fallen angels—intoxicated with hubris, scheming in the shadows of Washington, their wings clipped by the inevitability of Trump's genius. First Trump was the banishing, a thunderclap expulsion that hurled them from the halls of power into the political wilderness, their grand designs crumbling like dust from Eden's gates. Remember 2016, that seismic rupture when the coastal elites, drunk on their own prophecies of inevitability, watched in horror as the heartland rose, delivering a verdict as swift as Michael's archangelic fury?

A demilitarised zone that invites armoured cars. A referendum that can't be fairly run. A €210 billion pot that solves today's bills but complicates tomorrow's peace. We start with shuttle diplomacy and the hard edges of a potential DMZ in Donetsk. On paper it pauses the fight; in practice Rosgvardiya blurs policing and militarisation, turning “demilitarised” into a loophole big enough for armour. We then map the constitutional and moral traps around wartime elections or referendums, where occupied voters, blocked monitors and legal grey zones collide with Kyiv's need to navigate Washington without capitulating.From there, we track Europe's move to indefinitely freeze Russian sovereign assets and the push to spend them on Ukraine's budget. It feels just and efficient, but invites Russian expropriations at home, lawfare against Euroclear, and counter‑seizures abroad. It also spends tomorrow's reconstruction funds during the war, betting that weary voters will keep paying later. Meanwhile, Moscow counts manpower, energy pressure and US politics more than ledgers, so the deterrent effect may be modest.The Ben Aris article I mention is at: https://www.intellinews.com/commnet-the-eu-s-reparation-loan-vote-needs-to-fail-416078/?source=russia Finally, to a Paris restaurant where a row between Garry Kasparov and Vladimir Kara‑Murza exposed a deeper rift inside the exile opposition. PACE's platform and its Berlin Declaration have elevated some factions while sidelining Navalny's network, creating gatekeepers and fresh grievances. The result is predictable: public spats, claims of capture by donors, and propaganda gifts to the Kremlin. The uncomfortable truth remains that Russia's future will be authored inside Russia; exiles matter most when they support rather than splinter the constituencies that still exist at home.Support the show

The guys from Dawgman.com - Kim Grinolds in Los Angeles and Chris Fetters and Scott Eklund in Seattle - break down all the things that went right in UW's 38-10 win over Boise State, and where the team goes from here, especially knowing their head coach is apparently a wanted man.  From the Huskies' point of view, it was a brilliant night from start to finish, as all three phases did their part to keep the Mountain West Champs at bay. The guys talked about that, as well as these other topics... - Demond Williams, his four-touchdown night and his ceiling going into 2026 - Balanced play on offense and a good way for Jonah Coleman to finish off his college career.  - Ryan Walters really stepping up to created a strong Washington defense, especially as the season went on.  - Turnovers were a big reason for UW jumping out to a big halftime lead and kept the lead growing.  - Jedd Fisch said he's coming back to Washington, but will that be true a week or two from now? And does Fisch to Michigan even make sense from a practical point of view at this point in time?

Send us a textA coaching meltdown, a squatter standoff, and an MVP firestorm—three very different stories, one clear theme: choices have consequences. We kick off with Michigan's head coaching fiasco, laying out the timeline from alleged workplace relationship to arrest and the shockwaves across a storied program. We talk reputation, race, and risk: how much “credit” do first-time coaches really get, and what do athletic directors weigh when the pressure to win collides with public trust?Then we head to Washington, D.C., where an Airbnb stay morphed into a months-long legal siege. We explain how tenant protections kicked in after 30 days, why police couldn't simply remove the occupant, and how court delays and unpaid rent can break a small landlord. It's a straight shot of real-world advice: run your short-term rental like a business, understand local laws before you list, set clear screening criteria, document everything, and consider a property manager if you can't move fast when trouble hits.We cap it with the NFL MVP debate: is it purely performance, or does perception shape the vote? We compare how Lamar Jackson, Jalen Hurts, Josh Allen, and Patrick Mahomes are judged week to week, why quarterbacks dominate awards, and what metrics actually predict wins in December. Then it's rapid-fire Week 15 analysis—weather edges, defensive matchups, and the middle-eight minutes that flip close games—plus a few spicy picks you'll want to challenge.If you're here for unfiltered sports talk with practical takeaways—from sideline scandals to landlord law and MVP logic—you'll feel right at home.

King Charles and Queen Camilla have been invited to Washington, DC for a State Visit in April at President Trump's request, though the King's health may determine whether he travels. William and Kate are expected to visit the United States in July for America's 250th anniversary, while Harry and Meghan are not expected to take part in any commemorations. Questions are again being asked about royal finances as scrutiny turns to Prince Edward's long-term lease of Bagshot Park. Charles donates £50,000 of his own money toward urgent roof repairs at West Newton Church, a site closely linked to Queen Elizabeth the Second. A Brazilian self-styled “Living Nostradamus” offers dramatic predictions about royal health, family reconciliation, and even Meghan's relationship with Netflix. Andrew Mountbatten-Windsor prepares for an eventual move from Royal Lodge and faces uncertainty over where the late Queen's corgis will live. Princess Anne hosts a Christmas tea for veterans, earning praise from guests aged 100 and older. And Mike and Zara Tindall shut down speculation about appearing on Strictly Come Dancing, confirming they'll instead spend Christmas at Sandringham — though perhaps avoiding certain family members.Hear our new show "Crown and Controversy: Prince Andrew" here.Check out "Palace Intrigue Presents: King WIlliam" here.

Donald Trump has spent the past several days not on a campaign stage, but inside and around courtrooms, as a web of criminal and civil cases continues to tighten around him. Listeners, I want to walk you straight into what has been unfolding right now.In the federal election interference case in Washington, brought by Special Counsel Jack Smith, prosecutors have been pressing Judge Tanya Chutkan to keep this trial on a firm schedule. According to reporting from The New York Times and CNN, Smith's team has been pushing back hard against Trump's efforts to delay, arguing that voters deserve a jury verdict on whether he criminally tried to overturn the 2020 election before the next major political milestones. Trump's lawyers, by contrast, have continued to insist that the case is a partisan hit job and that they need far more time to review discovery. That clash over timing has dominated hearings in recent days, with Judge Chutkan signaling she will not allow the defense to simply run out the clock.Down in Georgia, in Fulton County, District Attorney Fani Willis's sweeping racketeering case charging Trump and multiple allies with trying to reverse Joe Biden's victory has turned into a marathon of pretrial skirmishes. The Atlanta Journal-Constitution and NBC News report that over the last week defense attorneys have peppered Judge Scott McAfee with motions to dismiss, motions to sever, and renewed attacks on the credibility of key state witnesses. Trump himself is not required to appear for most of these arguments, but his presence looms over every exchange, as prosecutors detail phone calls, pressure on state officials, and the now-famous effort to “find” votes.In Florida, the classified documents case has also seen movement. According to the Miami Herald and Politico, Special Counsel Jack Smith's team has used recent hearings to argue that Trump's continued public comments about witnesses and the FBI search at Mar-a-Lago are edging toward obstruction. Judge Aileen Cannon has been under scrutiny for months, with legal analysts at Lawfare and Just Security noting that her rulings on evidence and trial timing could determine whether this case is heard by a jury anytime soon. Trump's lawyers have leaned into claims that the documents were declassified or planted, while prosecutors have focused on surveillance footage and witness testimony that, they say, shows deliberate concealment.Meanwhile, in New York, the aftershocks of earlier trials are still being felt. The civil fraud judgment obtained by New York Attorney General Letitia James, which, as reported by the Associated Press and The Washington Post, found that Trump and the Trump Organization inflated asset values for years, has morphed into a battle over money and control. Recent filings have centered on how fast the state can collect hundreds of millions of dollars and what limits will be placed on Trump's ability to run his real estate empire in New York. Those financial pressures hang over every other case.Layered on top of all this, Supreme Court litigation involving the Trump administration's current actions has kept his legal team shuttling between lower courts and the high court. According to coverage by SCOTUSblog and Lawfare, emergency appeals over executive power, immigration, and the removal of independent agency officials have produced a rapid-fire series of shadow docket orders. One such case, Trump v. Slaughter, was argued this month, with Oyez and the Supreme Court's own docket noting that the justices are again being asked to define the reach of presidential power.Taken together, the past few days have not been about one trial, but about a landscape where Donald Trump's political future, personal fortune, and even his freedom are being tested, line by line, in legal filings and courtroom arguments.Thank you for tuning in, and come back next week for more.

Australia's Online Safety Amendment (Social Media Minimum Age) Act came into effect this week, barring anyone under 16 from having a social media account. With the growing concerns about how technology and platforms like TikTok and Instagram are harming children, there are calls in America to pass similar laws. Social media reform advocate and founder of Scrolling2Death.com, Nicki Petrossi, says teens under 16 should be prohibited from using social media. Petrossi recently joined The FOX News Rundown's Lisa Brady to discuss the dangers of kids being online and why she thinks tech companies are not doing enough to protect them from online risks. She also explains how many big techs intentionally try to get young people addicted to their apps and products, and why parents need to act. We often must cut interviews short during the week, but we thought you might like to hear the full interview. Today on Fox News Rundown Extra, we will share our entire interview with Scrolling2Death founder, Nicki Petrossi. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit podcastchoices.com/adchoices

Tonight's guest is Rob, joining us from Arizona. Back in 1969, on a logging road outside Marysville in Washington State, a late-night party turned into chaos as people fled shouting, running for their cars. Rob and his friends stayed long enough to see three towering figures step out from the tree line, the largest close to eight feet tall. His experiences didn't end in the wilderness. During a 2017 eclipse trip that took him past Area 51, Rob and his friends saw bright camera-flash bursts flicker in different spots across the night sky. And while he was stationed in Japan during his Navy years, he had more than one unsettling encounter with a mysterious woman in traditional dress, appearing suddenly and vanishing just as fast.More information on this episode on the podcast website:https://ufochroniclespodcast.com/ep-364-summer-of-69/Hidden Cults (Promo)It is a documentary-style podcast that digs deep into the world's most extreme, elusive, and explosive fringe groups.
