On this Thursday, February 5th, 2026, Art Sterling looks past the headlines to find the heart of the matter. We’re navigating a world where the last nuclear safety net just expired, yet a $10 plastic stool in a Virginia church is proving that leadership doesn't always need a podium.

From the high-stakes rhetoric at the National Prayer Breakfast to the "barefoot" bets being placed on Super Bowl LX, we've got the rest of the story you won't hear anywhere else.

On this Tuesday, January 27th, Art Sterling looks past the record-breaking drifts to find the pulse of a nation in the cold. Today, we mark the solemnity of International Holocaust Remembrance Day and navigate a world of shifting alliances—from new tariffs on South Korea to a landmark trade deal between India and Europe.

Closer to home, the mercury isn't the only thing dropping. We look at the major shakeup in Minneapolis as the Trump administration shifts its border operations, and we follow the trail of a massive winter storm that has left 25 neighbors lost to the cold but has brought out the best in the "Shovel Brigades" of Ohio.

Featured in today’s report:

• Global Waves: Trump’s 25% tariff move and the digital "Heritage" fashion of Trinidad.

• The Heartland: Why Louisville police are going viral in the snow and how a community in Michigan is lighting candles in the dark.

• The Irony: A Florida carjacker’s apology to a grandmother and Pete Davidson’s 10,000 VHS tapes.

• The Final Word: Why the American heart only gets warmer when the snow gets deep.

This is Art Sterling... Have a Great Day!
