February 18th, 2026: Parents At The Olympics, Daniel Radcliffe And My Thoughts

Host Lindsey Vernick kicks off the Feb 18, 2026 episode sponsored by the Year of the Horse, blending news and humor as she summarizes the day’s top stories. Highlights include the death and legacy of civil rights leader Jesse Jackson, parents’ anxiety over their children competing in extreme Olympic events, and Daniel Radcliffe’s supportive reaction to HBO’s Harry Potter reboot. The episode also touches on a TSA security lapse that let a passenger board with a meat cleaver, a spa policy tussle, a job-application wry thought, and a simple cooking tip — all wrapped up with listener contact and social links.
