Send us a textWhat if Space Mountain became Santa's fastest delivery route and the Yeti threw on a red suit for the holidays? We grab our Stroopwaffle bourbon coffee and go full Imagineer, sketching Christmas overlays that turn familiar Disney attractions into fresh, festive adventures without losing what fans love most.We start with the big swing: Space Mountain as a sleigh run, sleigh-styled vehicles, rooftop and chimney projections, and upbeat holiday tracks synced to the lift and drops. Pirates gets a winking twist, recasting scenes as family-holiday archetypes—cookie-bearing aunts, the legendary tipsy uncle, a peekaboo “Christmas thief”—anchored by a cheeky “Yo Ho Ho and a Bottle of Nog.” Indiana Jones evolves into Eye of the Forbidden Nutcracker, with March of the Toy Soldiers, chestnuts roasting cameos, flurries in the dart scene, and a Santa-faced boulder barreling to Santa Claus Is Coming to Town.We keep rolling with overlays that feel big but install smart. Autopia turns into a North Pole light drive—snow tires, frosty vistas, and synchronized LEDs that make nighttime laps magical. Country Bear Jamboree needs only the right centerpiece: Big Al crooning Blue Christmas and a snow-kissed finale. Expedition Everest shifts to Expedition North Pole, a serene Winter Wonderland climb that snaps into Sleigh Ride chaos the moment the track ends, starring Disco Santa Yeti. Toy Story Mania goes Krampus Mania with coal shots, rooftop clears, and chipmunk hijinks scored to novelty classics. And for projection perfection, Mickey & Minnie's Runaway Railway becomes a frantic Christmas Eve: traffic, last-minute shopping, Daisy's party dance, a scramble for Pluto's gift, and a peaceful ride home.If you're into holiday overlays, theme-park music cues, or just want a delicious bourbon coffee recipe, you'll have plenty to steal and debate. Hit follow, share with a Disney-loving friend, and tell us: which attraction needs a Christmas makeover next?

Country stars Lady A joined Billboard's Behind the Setlist podcast to talk about their new Christmas album, On This Winter's Night: Volume 2. The album features some original songs and new, refreshing renditions of well-worn holiday classics as "Winter Wonderland" and "Wonderful Christmastime." Learn more about your ad choices.

Vierter Adventssonntag, Edinburgh: Die Luft ist klar und kalt, der Atem zeichnet kleine Wolken in den Princes Street Gardens. Lichterketten spannen sich durch die Dunkelheit, ein bunt leuchtendes Riesenrad dreht sich langsam, dahinter wacht das Castle über der Stadt. Weihnachtsmusik weht herüber, vermischt sich mit Stimmen und Gelächter. Edinburgh wirkt festlich, verspielt – und die Weihnachtsstimmung liegt spürbar in der Luft. In dieser Folge von BRITPOD – England at its best schlendern Alexander-Klaus Stecher und Claus Behling durch das Winter Wonderland der schottischen Hauptstadt. Sie lassen sich treiben zwischen Buden und Düften, staunen über vertraute deutsche Spezialitäten mitten in Edinburgh und blicken aus luftiger Höhe über die erleuchtete Stadt. Es geht um Weihnachtsmärkte, Traditionen, kleine Beobachtungen am Rande und um diese besondere Stimmung, die Schottland in der Adventszeit entfaltet. Auch in der St. Giles Cathedral herrscht eine ganz eigene Atmosphäre. Ruhiger, besinnlicher, aber nicht weniger eindrucksvoll. Mitten auf der Royal Mile gelegen, ist sie eines der bedeutendsten historischen und religiösen Gebäude Schottlands. Im Gespräch mit Cathedral Steward Robin geht es um die Geschichte der Kirche, ihre Rolle als High Kirk der Church of Scotland und ihre enge Verbindung zur Monarchie. So wurde im September 2022, Queen Elizabeth II. nach ihrem Tod hier aufgebahrt. Es ist ein stiller Ort mit ganz viel Geschichte. Ein absolutes Highlight ist deswegen auch das Adventskonzert der University of Edinburgh in der St. Giles Cathedral. Getragen von der besonderen Akustik und der Atmosphäre des vierten Advents ist dieses Konzert exklusiv in dieser Podcast-Folge zu hören - Weihnachtsstimmung, die man nicht nur hört, sondern spürt. Warum gibt es auf einem schottischen Weihnachtsmarkt Spätzle, Bratwurst und deutsches Bier? Wie fühlt sich Edinburgh im Advent aus der Perspektive des Riesenrads an? Und was erzählt die St. Giles Cathedral über Schottland, die Monarchie und Weihnachten, wenn man ihr wirklich zuhört? BRITPOD – England at its best.

levende ut i denne belysningen," sa han med et smil, mens han pekte på en snødekt statue.En: "Look, Sigrid, that one looks almost alive in this lighting," he said with a smile, pointing at a snow-covered statue.No: Sigrid prøvde å svare naturlig, men tankene var et annet sted.En: Sigrid tried to respond naturally, but her thoughts were elsewhere.No: Hun så seg rundt, søkende etter en mulighet.En: She looked around, searching for an opportunity.No: Hun ville gjøre det nå, i kveld.En: She wanted to do it now, this evening.No: Det måtte være et lite øyeblikk av stillhet et sted, en

had gathered a layer of snow that glittered in the light from the lanterns.No: Eirik nikket oppmuntrende og trakk seg litt tilbake, en gest så subtil at Lars ikke merket noe.En: Eirik nodded encouragingly and stepped back a little, a gesture so subtle that Lars noticed nothing.No: Med hjertet bankende tok Sigrid Lars i hånden.En: With her heart pounding, Sigrid took Lars's hand.No:

"Lars så forvirret på henne, men smilte varmt.En: Lars looked at her, confused, but smiled warmly.No: "Hva er det, Sigrid?En: "What is it, Sigrid?"No: "Hun sank ned på et kne, trakk pusten dypt og åpnet hånden sin der ringen lå.En: She sank to one knee, took a deep breath, and opened her hand where the ring lay.No: "Vil du gifte deg med meg?En: "Will you marry me?"No: "En kort stillhet fylte rommet rundt dem, og resten av parken forsvant for et øyeblikk.En: A brief silence filled the space around them, and the rest of the park disappeared for a moment.No: Alt som betydde noe var Lars sitt ansikt, som lyste opp i et stort smil.En: All that mattered was Lars's face, which lit up in a wide smile.No: "Ja, selvfølgelig vil jeg det!En: "Yes, of course I will!"No: " Lars trakk Sigrid opp i en omfavnelse, og folkemengden rundt dem syntes å smelte bort, etterlatende dem i en boble av lykke.En: Lars pulled Sigrid up into an embrace, and the crowd around them seemed to melt away, leaving them in a bubble of happiness.No: Eirik, som hadde stått i skyggene, hoppet ut med hevede armer og et jubelrop.En: Eirik, who had been standing in the shadows, jumped out with raised arms and a cheer.No: "Gratulerer, dere to!En: "Congratulations, you two!"No: "Sigrid kjente en bølge av lettelse og glede.En: Sigrid felt a wave of relief and joy.No: Hun hadde lært noe nytt denne kvelden: noen ganger er

Steve Taylor (the one and only) checks in to discuss Sketch, his latest film production (in conjunction with writer Seth Worley and starring actor Tony Hale). We also touch on Steve's musical career including his classic "Meltdown (At Madame Tussaud's)", artists he has written for/produced, and the influence of his dad and mom. Tim grew up loving Steve's brand of alternative/punk rock--full of energy & witty lyrics, packed with meaning and way ahead of their time--frequently tackling difficult subjects head-on, challenging people (often the within the church) without making himself the center of attention, if such a thing is possible. Examples include "I Want To Be A Clone," "(We Don't Need No) Color Code," "Lifeboat," "I Blew Up The Clinic Real Good," "What Is The Measure of Your Success?," and "Bannerman," among a trove of others. Taylor also directed many music videos for his songs (and other artists) and wrote/collaborated with a number of artists including newsboys. As a record label executive, he was very involved with Chevelle, Leigh Bingham Nash & Sixpence None The Richer (including their worldwide smash "Kiss Me", Burlap to Cashmere & L.A. Symphony. Taylor has also performed in other bands including Chagall Guevara, and invested years of his life as a filmmaker including "The Second Chance" (with Rev Jeff Obafemi Carr & Michael W. Smith) and with "Blue Like Jazz," an adaption of Donald Miller's book.

I love capturing the vitality of the city.”Zh: 当夜色愈发深沉，两人不舍地交换了联系方式。En: As night gradually fell, the lights in the market became brighter and warmer.Zh: “我们可以再见面，你觉得呢？”勇提议。En: Under the lights, the two openly shared their interests and dreams.Zh: 莲轻轻点头，心里升起一股从未有过的暖意：“好的，期待下一次。”En: Lian discovered that she and Yong had so many common topics and thoughts.Zh: 此时的莲，仿佛突然明白，在人生这幅画中，偶尔给自己留下一片净白去交与他人填充，也许就是最好的创作。En: The noise of the market gradually faded away, replaced by the soft whispers between the two.Zh: En: In this seemingly coincidental encounter, Lian and Yong discovered a rare rapport.Zh: En: As the night grew deeper, they reluctantly exchanged contact information.Zh: En: “We can meet again, don't you think?” Yong suggested.Zh: En: Lian nodded gently, a warmth she had never felt before rising in her heart: “Alright, looking forward to next time.”Zh: En: At this moment, Lian seemed to suddenly understand that in the painting of life, occasionally leaving a blank space for others to fill might be the best creation.

det blev starten på noget nyt – en venskab, der blomstrede midt i den kolde, men hjertevarme julestemning i Tivoli.En: This project became more than just a school assignment or a story for teaching; it became the start of something new – a friendship that blossomed in the cold yet heartwarming Christmas atmosphere in Tivoli.Da: Da de skiltes den aften, havde Freja og Emil fundet det, de søgte: inspiration og en ny måde at se verden på.En: When they parted that evening, Freja and Emil had found what they were seeking: inspiration and a new way to see the world.Da: Frejas tvivl om hendes kunnen forsvandt, og Emils fortællinger fandt igen liv.En: Freja's doubts about her abilities disappeared, and Emil's stories came back to life.Da: De følte begge, at noget magisk var begyndt i denne vintervise have.En: They both felt that something magical had begun in this wintry wonderland.Da: Og det var sådan, i hjertet af København, at en simpel møde førte til starten på en ny rejse for både Freja og Emil.En: And so it was, in the heart of København, that a simple meeting led to the beginning of a new journey for both Freja and Emil.

What if the holiday season feels more like “back-to-school” chaos than winter magic—and how do we change that? The holiday season comes with excitement… and a whole lot of pressure. Jessica and Kelly dive into the emotional load of December, comparing it to the hectic back-to-school season and exploring why so many of us feel stretched thin. Together, they talk about opting out of unnecessary obligations, finding joy in smaller moments, and giving yourself permission to slow down. Inside This Conversation:  December feels like back to school with its busy routines. Opting out of obligations can be a form of self-care. Gift-giving can be simplified by involving children in the process. Community initiatives like Winter Wonderland can ease holiday stress. It's okay to say no to events and activities that don't bring joy. Prioritizing joy over obligation is essential during the holidays. Listeners are encouraged to reflect on their holiday priorities. The importance of a smaller gift list to reduce stress. Finding joy in the holiday season is possible with intention. Self-care should be a priority during busy times.

Send us a textWhat if your favorite Disney rides got a full holiday glow-up? We poured a Stroopwaffle bourbon coffee and went all-in on seasonal overlays, sketching out scene-by-scene makeovers that keep each attraction's DNA intact while layering in music, projections, scents, and plenty of festive chaos.First up, Space Mountain gets a “Santa's Galactic Delivery” sprint with sleigh-styled cars, poppy Christmas tracks timed to the lift, and rooftop chimney fly-bys racing past in the dark. Pirates of the Caribbean becomes a family holiday fever dream—relatives re-cast as pirates, cats in Santa hats, and a cheeky “Yo Ho Ho and a Bottle of Nog” soundtrack. Indiana Jones Adventure morphs into Eye of the Forbidden Nutcracker with toy soldier set pieces, Chip and Dale roasting chestnuts, a Santa-faced boulder, and snow effects that turn the dart room into a blizzard.We keep the momentum going with Autopia as a North Pole light drive—minimal changes, maximum magic—ideal for night rides under synchronized holiday lights. Expedition Everest reimagined as Expedition North Pole sets up a cozy Winter Wonderland climb that snaps into Sleigh Ride-speed mayhem with a Disco Santa Yeti. Toy Story Mania goes full Krampus Mania with playful, song-timed targets that make every pull hilariously mischievous. And because projections make quick work of seasonal swaps, Mickey & Minnie's Runaway Railway turns into a charming Christmas Eve dash: shopping traffic, Daisy's dance party, a last-minute Pluto gift run, and a calm cruise home with a Santa-bearded Chuby.If you love Disney parks, Jollywood Nights, and smart seasonal overlays that deliver fresh thrills without heavy downtime, this one's for you. Hit play, then tell us which ride deserves a holiday makeover and the song you'd score it with. Subscribe, share with your park buddies, and leave a review to help more Disney fans find the show. Cheers to Ears—and cheers to Christmas at the parks!

This week we're still immersed in Player Housing, but just a little bit of the shine has worn off, mostly as we've tried to chop down enough trees to decorate the houses of our dreams. Maybe our power level is so high we're just out here decimating every tree we encounter into matchsticks. But not everything is Player Housing. Some versions of WoW are also Classic, and MoP Classic just hit its final phase. We also have some news on Legion Remix, but because Matt is playing a Mage, they're not necessarily very nice.We're waiting on some announcements for Diablo 4 which will be exciting but perhaps not too exciting. It seems like they really learned from the disaster that was the Diablo Immortal announcement (though we contend that it's actually a fun little game).Plus, Overwatch 2 has a new season, which is nice and all, but that also means the Winter Wonderland event is back too, and that's really the headline.If you have a few minutes, please fill out our survey to tell us what you think about the podcast.

A song about the new Villainous Suns to the tune of the Christmas classic "Walking in a Winter Wonderland"

In this week's episode of Honey Bee Obscura, Jim Tew invites listeners into an apiary winter wonderland, where a fresh blanket of snow becomes one of the beekeeper's most revealing diagnostic tools. While the bee yard is silent on the surface, the snow tells its own story—tracks from deer and other wildlife, drifts shaped by wind, and the scattered bodies of a few dead bees shed light on how colonies are coping with single-digit temperatures. Jim reflects on the unmistakable signs of winter stress, including the loss of one colony and the resilience shown by others. With a characteristic blend of curiosity and humor, he brings along a stethoscope to listen for the faint hum of winter clusters—an experiment rooted in both science and playfulness. Even without opening the hives, he gathers clues about colony strength, cluster placement, and the harsh realities of overwintering bees. As he contrasts the vibrancy of summer with the quiet austerity of winter, Jim shares a thoughtful perspective on what it means to simply visit the apiary during the cold months. Sometimes the best beekeeping involves observing rather than intervening—letting the season speak and learning from what it reveals. Join Jim for this meditative walk among resting colonies in the heart of winter. ______________________ Thanks to Betterbee for sponsoring today's episode.

This week I spied Santa Claus ... hanging out in a dumpster. I reflected on how something as cynical as identifying with Santa in a Dumpster can be a source of unexpected joy.  Bugey-Cerdon, to me, is a holiday entertaining essential because of it fun fizz, sweetness, and its ability to rock everything from charcuterie to Christmas cookes. Oh, and the low alcohol is a bonus! I hope you enjoy this timely re-relase of this episode on Bugey, a wine region between Jura and Savoie in France, and that you spot the joy in unexpected places.

way through, but Giorgio made no move to budge.It: "Scusa, devo passare," disse Luca, cercando di sembrare calmo.En: "Excuse me, I need to pass," said Luca, trying to sound calm.It: Ma Giorgio fece finta di non sentire, indaffarato con i suoi clienti.En: But Giorgio pretended not to hear, busy with his customers.It: Determinado, Luca decise di passare lateralmente, rischiando di rovesciare

On this episode of The AIE Podcast… We have floor tanking and other WoW noobs… um, news Happy Lifeday, AIE December, where the attendance is optional and the fun is mandatory LOTRO brings YULE Kingdoms of Harad And, join us for our last show of the year All that and more coming up right now… Podcast Audio Raw Video http://youtu.be/TZ8A0NVJjUM Open Welcome to episode #440 of the podcast celebrating you, the Alea Iacta Est gaming community, the die has been podcast. This is Tetsemi: To my left is Mewkow: – (catch phrase here). And to my right is Mkallah: (hey guys, there is leftover caramel apple pie in the guild kitchen). This week, we have a wrap up of what is going on for December in AIE and gaming in general. Ok, we'll be digging into what we have been up to shortly, but first, let's cover this week's news… AIE News Community Mandatory Fun Nights Where the fun is mandatory but the attendance is not. Sunday – Destiny 2 8:30 pm Eastern Monday – GW2 9:30 pm Eastern Monday – STO 10:00 pm Eastern Tuesday – SWTOR 9:00 pm Eastern Wednesday – HFO Mythic+ Mayhem (WoW) 8:00 pm Eastern Friday – ESO 9:00 pm Eastern Saturday – LotRO 8:30 pm Eastern Saturday – FFXIV (Maps) 9:30 pm Eastern Saturday – Noob Raid (WoW) 11:00 pm Eastern Streaming and Guild Podcast News We have a ton of AIE member podcasts! Want to know where to find them? Look no further than here- New Overlords Podcast (Max and Sema) https://www.newoverlords.com Boards and Swords (Chris and Philip) https://boardsandswords.com/blog?category=Boards%20%26%20Swords Dr. Gameology ( Dr. Daniel Kaufmann ) https://drgameology.com/ STO – Fleet Action Report (Grebog and Nikodas) https://www.youtube.com/@fleetactionreport A Podcast Reborn: A FFXIV Community Podcast (Brandon aka Old Man Franks, Meagan, and Rho) – NSFL https://www.bonusroll.gg/directory/a-podcast-reborn/ WoW Noob Raid is on winter break until January 3, 2026 so Dankinia can get a bit of relief from the horrible jokes the group likes to torment her with. During 2025, Dankinia demonstrated her floor tanking abilities 172 times. While she is out, Celindre will be leading Noob Raid – After Dark during the normal 11pm EST time slot each Saturday. In WoW, Midnight – the next expansion – has a release date of March 2nd with the pre-patch release on Jan 13. Anyone with an Epic Edition pre-order will have early access – expected Feb 27 according to WoWHead. Players with early access will also be able to use the new Player Housing feature as of Dec 2. This will be a bit complicated for AIE and our co-guilds, which are one of several ways to join “neighborhoods” for player housing. Every player’s Warband gets two houses – one Horde and one Alliance, but any alt can access either home. There will be open neighborhoods that are server wide, and Guilds can create private neighborhoods open to anyone in that guild. Groups of friends (such as Raid Teams) can also create charters for their own neighborhoods. We will have neighb orhoods for all the co-guilds (probably) but haven’t assigned which officer will be assigned to which yet. Currently, in addition to the Legion Remix event (speed leveling/transmog/mounts etc), the WoW Anniversary is active in Retail WoW, with a rep & xp boost. Visiting the Anniversary Celebration at the Caverns of Time will provide an additional buff. Rep is good – because it’s one of the ways to obtain decor for Player Housing. SWTOR SWTOR will see a holiday release of update 7.8 entitled “Pursuit of Ruin”. It will include a new story chapter, a new type of Dynamic Encounter, and a new stronghold (player housing). That’s not to mention Life Day festivities, with the snow balls and the wookiee hugging. Also, for the first year ever, we will be trying out a new guild event during the evenings between Christmas and New Years. Stay tuned to discord for more info on that! ESO MFN in ESO generally takes the month of December off, but expect to find a couple of people hanging out at the normal time on Friday nights though the holidays. Attendance will be sporadic but feel free to reach out if anyone would like company while running the holiday events in game. FFXIV Patch 7.4 comes December 16th. Main Scenario – Into the Mist Raid Dungeon – The Arcadion: Heavyweight Division Variant Dungeon – The Merchant’s Tale New Dungeon – Mistwake New Trial – Hell on Rails New Unreal Trial – Tsukuyomi’s Pain (Unreal) New Frontline Campaign – Worqor Chirteh Weapon Enhancement Quests – Phantom Weapons Inconceivably Further Hildibrand Adventures Manderville Gold Saucer GATE – Air Force One (The Cieldalaes) Cosmic Exploration: Oizys and Tool Enhancement Quests – Cosmic Tools Strategy Board – Raid explanations but better Glamour Update – Unlocked all types! New Theme Settings – Clear Green and Clear White Mac support (Ventura ends Jan 27, Tahoe now supported) Save 50% on Collector's Edition Digital Upgrades Until December 7 New ridiculous hotpot mount (It flies) And irregular tomestones are active now until 7.4 is live. Fanfest is happening where Blizzcon is normally, April 24/25th. Cookbook #2 is out! LOTRO New expansion “Kingdoms of Harad” as of right now is scheduled to be released on December 3rd. The instance cluster for the expansion is expected to be delayed, which means this gives a chance to level up to the new level cap and get a group together and look at it as a kinship. Also looking forward to the Yule Festival that starts on December 11th. Join us as we look to have fun in Frostbluff as well as protecting it in “The Battle of Frostbluff”. STO Yes, it’s true, Cryptic studios has once again been sold. However, this is not a time for doom and gloom. The new owners have no intentions of sunsetting STO. In fact, STO has simply returned to its original owners who want to see the game succeed. There are ongoing sales in both the Zen Store and Mudd’s Market. Some of these are as high as 50% off! Lifetime Subscriptions are 33% off until Dec 14th Q’s Winter Wonderland will be returning on Dec 9th. While we don’t have any specific details on what the rewards will be this year, it’s sure to be something you don’t want to miss! And with that, let's get to what we have been doing in and out of the game! And, Mkallah has a question for everyone! GAME NEWS Okay, friends! What geeky thing are you planning to give for the holidays, and are there any geeky gifts you hope to receive? CLOSE And that's our show for tonight.
