O Canada, Small Steps, and Strange Festivals!

Welcome back to Rick’s Rambles, your weekly dose of good news, positivity, trivia, and a few surprises along the way!

This week, we’re heading north to celebrate our friendly neighbors in Canada with a batch of fun facts that might just surprise you—even if you’ve visited before. 🇨🇦

In our Good News Story of the Week, we’re talking small steps with big impact. If lofty goals have ever left you feeling overwhelmed, this one’s for you! Learn how taking tiny steps can boost both your mental and physical health.

Instead of our usual Story Behind the Song segment, we’re spotlighting 8 quirky and wonderfully odd festivals from across the U.S.—you won’t believe some of these traditions! 🎪

And as always, we wrap up with a look at the holidays and observances for the week—because there's always something worth celebrating. 🎉

Hit play, smile a bit, and let's ramble on!

 

Thank you for taking the time to listen!  Please take a moment and share the poddast on your social media, and if you'd like to buy me a cup of coffee, you can do that
