Tackling Life After the Game Ends: The NFL’s Marc Spindler  

The holidays are here, and at HarmonyTALK, that means it’s time to hit pause, look back, and smile a little.

This special holiday episode is our end-of-year highlight reel- a celebration of the dreamers, doers, and big ideas that shaped our conversations throughout 2025. Hosted by Lisa Champeau, Greg Frigoletto, and Todd Stephens, this episode revisits some unforgettable moments and the people behind them.

We hear from guests who followed curiosity instead of certainty. Who chased bold ideas. Who found purpose in unexpected places. From a lifelong camp dream turned into a thriving reality, to a young scientist tackling microplastics, to powerful reflections on creativity, courage, and staying curious, each story reminds us why we love these conversations so much.

This episode isn’t about perfection or tidy endings. It’s about momentum. About what happens when people say yes to possibility, lean into the process, and keep showing up for what excites them.

As we wrap up 2025 and look ahead to a brand-new year, we’re grateful for our guests, our listeners, and the stories that connect us all. We hope this holiday special leaves you inspired, energized, and ready for whatever comes next.

Happy holidays from all of us at HarmonyTALK—and here’s to more dreamers and doers in 2026.

Exploring Jazz with Loren Schoenberg: From the National Jazz Museum to Juilliard | HarmonyTALK #108

Join us on this captivating episode of HarmonyTALK Podcast hosted by Lisa Champeau as we delve into the fascinating world of "Lover's Eyes" with Nan and David Skier, a remarkable couple from Birmingham, Alabama. Dr. David, a retired ophthalmologist, and his wife Nan have spent the past two decades amassing an extraordinary collection of these unique and historical artworks.

Lover's Eyes are miniature portraits featuring disembodied eyes, meticulously painted on ivory and often surrounded by intricate frames. Originating in Europe around the 1800s, these intimate pieces were typically commissioned to commemorate a secret love or a deep, personal bond, often with the identity of the sitter remaining a mystery.

In this episode, Nan and David share the story behind their collection, which began with David's professional fascination with the human eye and evolved into a passionate quest to preserve these delicate mementos of affection and intrigue. With around 100 pieces in their possession, discover how these tiny works of art have become a bridge between the past and the present, and how the Skiers' dedication has brought to light a little-known yet profoundly touching aspect of art history. 

Whether you're an art enthusiast, a history buff, or simply curious about the unusual, this episode is for you. Nan and David Skier will discuss their journey, their collection, and the timeless allure of Lover's Eyes.
