We know... It's not Christmas, haha

There may be no tree up, or no snow falling.

But some stories don't belong to a season they belong to all of us.

In this episode of The Embers, we sit with Rankin/Bass Historian Riick Goldschmidt and step back into the magic, Animagic that is. The quiet wonder of the films that we grew up on.

From Rudolph the Red-Nosed Reindeer to Nestor the Long Eared Christmas Donkey and The Little Drummer Boy, we explore how these stop-motion classics were made, how long they took to create, the artistry behind the productions, and the history that turned them into generational traditions.

we talk memorabilia. Lost details. Production timelines. The books and calendars preserving the legacy.

Throw another log on the fire.

In this episode of The Embers, we sit down with tattoo artist and creator Chris Gilreath (Oldmansi) for an honest, wide ranging conversation about faith, creativity, and perseverance.

Chris walks us through his journey into tattooing, and the setbacks, the mountains he's had to climb , and the moments where quitting felt easier than continuing. Along the way, he shares how Jesus lent a hand in his life.

We also tackle the common question, are tattoo's biblical???

As always, things take a turn toward the nerdy, diving headfirst into Star Wars, uncovering Tanner's predictable love for side characters, and wrapping things up with a brand-new Blind Ranking Chris wasn't ready for.

Grab your headphones and settle in...

In this episode of The Embers, we sit down with Terril Andrews to talk life, upbringing, and the winding road that eventually brought him to Kansas.

What starts as getting to know Terril quickly turns into nonstop banter as we dive into NFL and NBA debates, relive nostalgic childhood cartoons, and laugh about the shows that basically raised our generation. We also talk through how culture has shifted, and why being intentional about what your kids watch matters more now than ever

It's a laid back, laughter-filled conversation packed with sports takes, throwback memories, and thoughtful moments that remind us how the small things shape who we become
