Episode 78 is a full-blown holiday fever dream.

Carl, Zac and Hayden riff on the year that was, revisiting the wildly diverse lineup of 2025 News Man Weekly guests, before Carl unleashes a series of Top 5 lists no one asked for but everyone needs -- the worst Christmas songs, the worst Christmas movies and the most soul-crushing holiday commercials ever inflicted on the American public.

Friend of the show Steve Russell joins us to discuss British vs American Christmas traditions, plus his favorite (and least favorite) Christmas movies, songs and books. Then it's a rotating cast of Source Media staff who drop in for some loose, festive, barely controlled holiday chatter.

Thank you to all of our listeners for tuning in this year. It's our last episode of 2025, but we'll be back and better than ever next year. Merry Christmas, Happy Holidays and Happy Hanukkah to all!

This episode is supported and powered by Relax, It's Just Coffee.

Intro theme music is local artist Emily Raff's cover of Donny Hathaway's holiday classic, This Christmas.

News Man Weekly: Christmas extravaganza show with Steve Russell and Source reporters

What does it look like to build a life around intentional connection and chosen family?

In this episode, we sit down with lifelong Richland County resident Bobby Rhea, whose world is shaped by curiosity, creativity, and service. Whether he’s volunteering at the Renaissance Theatre, supporting the Mansfield Gay Pride Association, writing Lenten letters, or finding connection in his faith communities. Bobby shares how practices like handwritten notes, thoughtful gift-giving, and solo trips have helped him see his own worth, root into community, and live more authentically.

From navigating life as a “recovering people pleaser” to listening to what your body tells you about where you belong, Bobby offers a grounded, tender look at boundaries, trust, and chosen family. This conversation invites us to slow down, get curious, and remember that real community grows through small, intentional acts of presence, gratitude, and courage.

If you're new here, this is a place for everyone to laugh, learn, heal and build. Not alone. Not perfectly. But arm in arm, heart to heart. Because we were never meant to do this alone. We are always Better Together.
