Key Takeaways: Ecommerce's Dirty Little Secret Aaron Schwartz is the President of Loop, a post-purchase platform that enables brands to transform returns into exchanges. In the podcast interview, Joe and Aaron discuss ecommerce's dirty little secret, which is returns. Ecommerce buyers return up to 30% of online purchases – the number varies greatly by product and company, but it is a problem for everyone. Loop specializes in returns and they have made a science of it. Loop's goal is to change returns into exchanges. Loop manages the pixels, not the parcels meaning they are a technology company and they utilize the 3PL specified by the brand. Most brands focus on sales, marketing, and fulfillment and the returns process and costs are overlooked. Loop's platform completely integrates with their customer's systems, which enables Loop to manage the return process. Loop's technology integration and seamless handling of the return process has the following advantages: Enables brands to focus on growing their business. Loop's online return process is a nice experience for consumers and they are often convinced to exchange the product rather than ask for a return. When a return is transformed into an exchange, customer satisfaction rises, and the brand makes more money.

This meat looks geological. Like lovely, delicious geodes. In the refrigerated case, huge racks of Brandt Beef just lay there at Ranch45—have been laying for a while (40 days, says one tag). When meat is dry-aged like this, it begins to look prehistoric and unlocks a whole new universe of flavors. Excess moisture is drawn out of the meat over time, breaking down the protein, tenderizing it and concentrating its steakness. It works the same way as when you “reduce” a stock or a soup to crank up the flavor. In the cooler next to it, Ranch45 chef Aaron Schwartz is aging bone marrow. That's right. Ranch45 is dry-aging bone marrow. At the performance kitchen in the middle of the butcher shop/deli/restaurant/gourmet general store in Solana Beach, Schwartz roasts one of them; serves it simply on a plate with salt, pepper, chives, microgreens; and a dash of oil. As a marrow adherent (it is meat butter), it's the first dry-aged marrow I've had. And it's that much better. “Any meat has to age at least a bit to be any good,” says Schwartz, who was born and raised in the area and lives with his family (including wife and business partner, Pamela) in nearby Carmel Valley. “That's why in the butcher shop you'll see it on hooks.” Next to the dry-aging marrow and meat is soap. Bone marrow soap. “We just hand-packaged them last night,” says Schwartz. “It's about using every part of the animal. Wasting as little as possible. We're getting back to the way things used to be in butcher shops. Where you knew your butcher and trusted them. That's why we use Brandt Beef. I've known Eric Brandt and his family for 20 years and I'm still using them for a reason.” Del Mar has something special in Ranch45. As a chef at Marriott Marquis, Schwartz made a name for himself by convincing a large multinational hotel group to invest in local food. Under his watch, Marquis was one of the city's largest purchasers of local farm goods. When the pandemic hit, he was furloughed. He spent time at home with his kids. Then Pamela convinced him to join Ranch45, which she'd managed for three years (she's an accomplished chef and wine person herself, having spent years overseeing nearby Pamplemousse Grille and the once-mighty Arterra). Now they're expanding, taking over the space next door and putting in a real butcher shop. The idea is to be the supplier for all of the local top restaurants, and for the locals who want to know where their meat comes from. For this podcast we sit and talk with Schwartz about the ideas of simple food sourced from a place you know. About bringing small purveyors and general stores back to a community. In “Hot Plates,” we break the news that The Joint in O.B. is working on a ramen joint on Newport Avenue down the street from their original location, as well as opening two restaurants in Hawaii; Indian standout Charminar is opening the upscale Dosa Studio next door; and Ballast Point has a new culinary director in Tommy Dimella (who also spent years at Pamplemousse). For “Two People, Fifty Bucks” Aaron points to Juanita's taco shop in Leucadia, where he takes his family after a surf; Troy raves about Starfish Filipino Eatery in O.B. (get the sisig); and David gives a shout out to the pop-up submarine tiki bar experience, Acey Deucey Club. See ya next week.

In this episode of We Run This, we're talking to actor and athlete, Aaron Schwartz. Aaron Schwartz probably looks familiar to people of a certain age because, at one point in the 1990s, Aaron made a career out of playing the lovable, chubby kid in blockbuster movies like The Mighty Ducks and Heavyweights, and on TV shows like The Adventures of Pete & Pete. Schwartz continues to act but has undergone quite the transformation, going from fat to fit over the course of his adolescent and adult years. Aaron is now using his personal experiences to help motivate others who might struggle with some of the issues he did as a kid. --- Support this podcast: https://anchor.fm/werunthis/support

ADAM DEITCH B-DAY EXTRAVAGANZA! Episode 032 of *The Upful LIFE Podcast* is proud to welcome the one & only ADAM DEITCH to the show! It's an honor & privilege for this esteemed gentleman to slide through for a proper powwow. To celebrate his 4/26 b-day, we dig into a pair of fresh records: Lettuce's new LP Resonate (5/8), & his own forthcoming solo electronic EP The Age of Imperfection, AND check-in with his fam. Literally! His wonderful parents BOBBY & DENISE DEITCH hop on the phone to discuss all things Deitch. Bobby Deitch Band  new album dropping 5/15, so we get the scoop on that, plus loving parental reflections on Adam & his boys. Ep.032 finishes strong with the great RYAN ZOIDIS (sax - Lettuce, AD4, BrkSci Live Band). Zoid has collab'd with Adam Deitch for nearly a quarter century, he's a world-class musician & vibrant conversationalist. This episode is a family affair. HAPPY BIRTHDAY ADAM! #DeitchBeatsDontQuit - ISOLATION STATION v.4 ADAM DEITCH intro - 6:00 BOBBY & DENISE DEITCH intro - 41:00  RYAN ZOIDIS intro - 1:17:30  Adam Deitch needs no introduction. He's steadily among the more celebrated drummers in the game for over two decades, laying the foundation for modern funk music. He pushes the art skyward, prolific in hip-hop, electronic, and jazz. He's been the iconic engine powering Lettuce ever since the future-funk cosmonauts first took flight, back in the mid-1990's at Berklee College of Music in Boston. Their collective trajectory has been astonishing, as has his own journey in music. In addition to slaying with LETT, Deitch has collaborated with everybody from John Scofield to Pretty Lights to Redman & beyond. The GRAMMY-nominated artist is dropping new music left & right, even on quarantine. Deitch stays perpetually in motion, getting busy with his electro-soul duo Break Science, plus his own soul-jazz group Adam Deitch Quartet (featuring Ep.024 guest Wil Blades, and Lettuce's Ryan Zoidis (interviewed later in this program) & Eric Benny Bloom (Ep.017).      Transmitting from Denver, CO., Adam brings us into the Resonate recording and mixing sessions with super-producer Russ Elevado, as well as the band's writing and studio processes. Deitch discusses how LETT creative vibes coalesce, a general modus operandi for the current squadron, and highlights Elevado's dutiful influence. The drummer teases some possible dream collabs, with insightful backstories of how & why they might just happen. Adam gets into the "Funkin from Home" project, then pivots into his own production concepts, ideas, and compositions with regard to new electronic EP The Age of Imperfection. The dude waxes philosophic about sampling traditions, newer trends in the culture, then shows love to some young gunners pioneering the wave in that lo-fi hip-hop space. He tickles the fans with some clues about a new Nigel Hall solo album in the works. Maybe more Break Science acoustic? Towards the end, AD reveals his thoughts on the myriad of emotional elements ever-present in his rhythms & compositions. Universal language inherent in so much that he studies & loves. Always humble, forever a student, yet effortlessly the teacher. Fantastic, fulfilling, & deeply informative Adam Deitch interview! Here's to another ring around the sun, shogun!  Bobby & Denise Deitch were kind enough to make time for the podcast from their home/studio in Nyack, NY, just outside the city. Topics include: how the duo is sheltering-at-home, forthcoming album from Bobby Deitch Band titled Work With Whatcha Got, due May 15. Bobby Deitch breaks down his band, process, collaborators, song ideas, themes and intentions in rolling out this new record, which features Michealangelo Carubba & Shira Elias from Turkuaz (both guests on this show in the past), in addition to living legend George Porter Jr., Lettuce's Nigel Hall, among other special guests. Denise frequently chimes in with some funny tidbits on their shared creative energy and how the couple carefully builds a song from scratch. Naturally, I asked Adam's parents for some reflections on their son, his bands, their brotherhood, and his ever-prolific output. Get the latest on Bobby & Denise Deitch music HERE                 ENTER THE ZOID VOID: The final conversation is a profound exchange with my dear friend RYAN ZOIDIS, whom I reached super late on 4/20 night at his home in Portland, ME.. Zoidis is another LETT co-founder, & part of Adam Deitch Quartet, Break Science Live Band, Soulive's Shady Horns, critically-acclaimed Rustic Overtones, & Royal Hammer (Portland roots-reggae crew). Zoid gets personal how the relationship with his young daughter has evolved and transformed during quarantine. How the virtuoso saxman has improved as both musician & teacher. We revisit Russ Elevado's Voodoo touch, how the venerable producer magically elevated the LETT sessions with poignant palette cleansing of the highest order. Zoidis pulls the curtain back on a couple of favorite Resonate joints, floats dreamy ideas for a psychedelic improv/instrumental LETT release, and how the band's recent jaunt through Europe brought the squad even closer, vibrations onstage and off. Zoid kicks knowledge & drops science on natural wines, & introduces his new 'natty-wine' distribution company Benny & Zoid Selections, with bandmate Eric Benny Bloom. Meanwhile, what's up with a rumored wild collab project with Tycoon & Jesus Coomes!? We wrap up this sesh with a string of enlightening topics, beginning with Ryan's beautiful recollections & ruminations on his relationship with the Deitch family. Zoid offers parting thoughts on Still Bill, and seminal dancehall DJ Toyan's timeless classic LP How the West Was Won. Large Up Ryan Zoidis!

Produced by Foundersuite.com, "How I Raised It" goes behind the scenes with startup founders who have raised capital. This episode is with Aaron Schwartz of Passport Shipping (www.passportshipping.com), a provider of international shipping services designed for eCommerce companies. The Company recently raised $3 million of seed funding from Precursor Ventures, Resolute Ventures and Ryan Hoover of Product Hunt. Sophia Amoruso (GirlBoss) and April Underwood (Slack) also participated in the round. In this episode, Aaron talks about creating an "asset light" business in the shipping world, how he built investor relationships well in advance of raising capital, the advantages of having a diverse cap table, the terms he uses when putting together an Advisory Board, and much more.

Actor Aaron Schwartz joins the show to talk about his roles in some nostalgic films we will never forget such as Mighty Ducks and Heavyweights. He also talks about his upcoming projects as well!

Thank you to Aaron Schwartz for commissioning another episode covering Iron Druid! If you'd like to pick up a copy, you can do so here, and support the show as well! https://amzn.to/2CxCzL9The next 5 chapters of Hounded are packed with action and interesting bits of information on how magic works, how Atticus does what he does, and all of that...but mostly what I'm interested in is all the information about witches. I don't think there was any mention of the fact that witches even existed in this world, but we get an introduction to one in particular whom I find simply delightful in her nastiness, and she's part of a larger coven run by an even more powerful witch. Atticus isn't aware of what he's agreeing to do when he makes a deal with her to brew a tea that will make her unattractive, but when he finds out, it just spells way more bad news for him. Thanks so much for listening, and hopefully I will see you soon with some new chapters!

I'm starting on a new book this week, Hounded by Kevin Hearne, which is part of the Iron Druid series. It's got a lot of that Dresden Files flavor, but with a different attitude towards magic and towards supposedly mythical beings than the world Jim Butcher has created. Atticus is a couple of millenia old and he's sick of this bullshit. He's been running from faeries for a long-ass time, and keeps getting jumped, and keeps uprooting his life and starting over somewhere new just because they're on his trail. But this time, the faerie thugs sent to take him down are not motivating him to run away; instead he's decided that he's going to make a last stand and face off with the god that he's pissed off, once and for all. Of course, there's a catch. He's only still alive because the Morrigan, goddess of death and battlefield carnage, has decided that she doesn't like the god who is after Atticus much herself, and she's keeping him alive out of spite. Which is kind of my favorite thing? But she's not the only goddess of death out there, and there's still a chance that one of the others might come for Atticus, in time. This was a lot of fun, and many thanks to Aaron Schwartz for commissioning it! If you'd like to pick up a copy of Iron Druid, you can do that here! https://amzn.to/2PeecU7

Watch the video podcast here. A Bit About Sherry Sherry has a PhD in Clinical Psychology and specialises in helping entrepreneurs and executives who are trying make their way in the world of business. It’s a tough path to travel and there are many rewards but it is important that we tell the truth about how hard it is to carve out our own livelihood. She started out as a professor and did a lot of research into traumatic stress and became curious about how we can prevent long-term mental health problems when people are under stress. She started asking these questions about various populations such as military officers and physicians before she started asking them about founders. Sherry is married to Rob Walling who is a well-known entrepreneur and author.  Sherry tells Troy that one day in 2012, she found Rob crying in his office as he had just learned that Aaron Schwartz (founder of Reddit) had taken his own life. This had affected him because he could relate to the tough journey of an entrepreneur. The two of them then started asking the question of how they can help founders and entrepreneurs. When they launched Zen Founder they started with conference presentations then added a podcast which built a strong following. All of these pieces just built on each other until, in the last 18 months, Zen Founder and Zen Tribe have been able to become her full-time vocation. What Is Zen Founder and How Does It Help Entrepreneurs? Zen Founder helps entrepreneurs with mental health. Sherry explains that she spends 45% of her time talking about how important it is for us to firstly just notice our mental health. So a big part of her role is education and making mental health a normative conversation. Sherry encourages people to pay attention to themselves and provides a safe space to allow people to talk. Sherry also helps founders remove the mental blocks which may be holding them back. Loneliness is a big block and is very common for freelancers, but even people with teams still feel lonely sometimes. There are other blocks such as fear of failure or even success. Often people self-sabotage and get scared when they're on the brink of success. What Can You Do If  You Feel Isolated or Stressed? Sherry says that one of the most powerful practices that you can do is journaling. It may sound fluffy but there is actually a science behind it. Her advice is to put your thoughts on paper and look at it objectively. Get it out of your inner world and look at it in a neutral way. Track your metrics: How are you sleeping? What’s your mood like? What are the highs and lows of your day? You can learn a lot about yourself by being the observer. Keep a dream journal or a thought record. This is all a part of collecting data, measuring and understanding yourself. Our thoughts are important, but they are only one part of us. They feel so loud when they live in the echo chamber of our mind but they sound and feel different when they are outside of us. Troy mentions the book "The Artist's Way" where the author recommends getting into the habit of just writing whatever is on your mind every morning. A great book! Check out the link at the end of the show notes. Sherry has a morning routine where she gets up at 5.30 am and goes to the gym or for a  run. She likes the quiet and needs that space for her brain to wake up and be internal. She then feels like she has accomplished something and it is still only 7 am! The Zen Founder Team Zen Founder is a blanket name for the things that they do. They have the podcast series as well as her consulting work where Sherry helps entrepreneurs who are in transitions, crises and need an objective helper. She also plans retreats for organisations so that they can run a meaningful retreat. Zen Tribes is like mental health boot camp where she partners with other founders to help small groups of entrepreneurs. They meet for 8 weeks and talk about taking care of your body and have conversations which are targeted towards the unique challenges that founders face. The Book Sherry and Rob released their book "The Entrepreneurs Guide to Keeping Your S**t Together" on February 21st, 2018. This awesome title was actually their 11-year old's idea. It’s a book based on the best of what they have learned from their podcasts over the last few years. It's action-packed with some shared personal stories and practical and implementable strategies that people can use. Sherry wrote most of the book and Rob did most of the editing and revisions. She wishes that she could say it was an easy process but it took about a year and ended up being a difficult year for her personally. It required a lot of her but she was glad of the routine of writing as it provided structure and accomplishment amidst a lot of things that she couldn’t control. How Sherry Looks After Her Mental Health Sherry has her own therapist and she also has great friends. She also says that her yoga teacher is her mental health guru and it has been a really important practice for her to integrate body, mind and soul and be able to breathe and let go. Because this practice has helped her so much she also combines yoga and therapy to help people work through stress and anxiety. We love these simple and important tips from Sherry. Is there anything that has helped you to get through stressful times? Let us know in the comments below. It's important to make sure we all don't feel alone on this journey so please reach out. We'd love to hear your thoughts on this podcast too!

Mike, Tommy, and Kevin tackle another Mighty Ducks minute. This time they look at the Hawks' attempt to foil the Ducks' roundup, how Fulton Reed assaulted three Hawks players at the same the time, and whether there was some product promotion hidden in D2. Show Notes Mighty Ducks quote of the day: "They won't know what hit them." Please click this link and fill out this survey Thanks again to Lesley Goldberg (@Snoodit) for answering our question. Kevin was wrong and right: It was NBC, not ABC, that originally had Friday Night Lights. But it was DirecTV that came and rescued the show due to a partnership deal with NBC. Game of Thrones is indeed supposed to come out in 2019.  The plot to Wild Hogs, if you're unfamiliar. Aaron Schwartz was on Episode 94. Zeitgeist: "the defining spirit or mood of a particular period of history as shown by the ideas and beliefs of the time." -- so not really the correct usage, but whatever. We did Minute 117 in Episode 118, although we called it Minute 116. How did Fulton even do this?  McGill's earring: This scene appears to be filmed at Theodore Wirth Regional Park. Here's the billboard with Bombay standing behind the Duck Head billboard.  Mike said it the building above was called "Burger Bank." It was obviously Band Box. That's embarrassing. Thanks to @hodgee_ for the #QuackQuestion. @QuackAttackPod In honor of the upcoming Olympic Games:#QuackQuestion Reference article:https://t.co/0sPiG6iyaY pic.twitter.com/X734PsGwes — Andrew Hodge (@hodgeee_) January 12, 2018 Over 450,000 condoms were ordered for the Olympic Village in Rio. The announcer does say the U.S. is favored in swimming, basketball, and hockey at the Junior Goodwill Games. We talked about what Portman and Julie did in the locker room after getting kicked out of the first Iceland game in Episode 11.

Kristen hangs with former child star of Mighty Ducks and Heavyweights, Aaron Schwartz to talk about surviving the emotional ups and downs of Hollywood. They also talk about Aaron's issues with body dysmorphic disorder and how he tries to beat it.

Aaron Schwartz (Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 2, Mighty Ducks, Heavyweights): growing up as a child actor; working on the set of Mighty Ducks; learning to be an action star

Today we have a serious subject that isn't so much about getting more downloads, and new cool gear, but the fact that your podcast can make a difference. I've helped people save money on fear, and help them launch podcasts. I've helped them find ways to grow their audience, and give them insights into creating better content on the Podcast Review Show. I've helped a listener of my Logical Weight Loss podcast lose 100 lbs. None of those compare to the email I received from the producer of Kuldryn's Krypt podcast. Honestly, in September of last year, 2016, I had resolved get my affairs in order and to end my life on Halloween night, the greatest day of the year. I was introduced by complete chance to you. I was on Spreaker, did a search for podcasting and you came up. I chose to listen to you because my birth name is Ryan Jackson and I have a brother name David. Keep in mind I had never heard a podcast prior to this and I have no idea how I or why I was even on Spreaker's website...but I was and there was you were. I am a Patron because you gave me the tools to start my own podcast but more importantly you, YES! YOU! "The Dave Jackson, provided me with something to live for. My podcast isn't great, it isn't even good, BUT IT IS MINE and it provides me with the outlet I need to help other's and once again have a purpose in this world. It is just a very simple fact-if I had not found YOUR podcast when I did, on October 31st, 2017 11:55p.m. a bullet from a Taurus .38 Special would be ending my life. Thank you for never giving up and fighting through...I'm sure through your divorce and the issues with your family it hasn't been easy but Dave, I am will continue to be literal living proof that it's been worth it. Thank you! So today we are going to talk about setting expectations, and crushing it, etc. Suicide Among Entrepreneurs is a Problem We Should Talk About 30% of all entrepreneurs experience depression, according to a study by Dr. Michael Freeman, a clinical professor at the University of California, San Francisco. Depression among entrepreneurs is way higher than depression among Americans in general, which is estimated at about 7% — although that number could be even higher because of the stigma associated with talking about it. Of the 242 entrepreneurs surveyed, 49% reported having a mental-health condition. Depression was the No. 1 reported condition among them and was present in 30% of all entrepreneurs, followed by ADHD (29%) and anxiety problems (27%). That's a much higher percentage than the US population at large, where only about 7% identify as depressed.   Here are just some examples In May 2015, 31 year old Austen Heinz, CEO of Cambrian Genomics took his own life. In July, 29 year old Faigy Mayer, CEO of Appton jumped off a New York rooftop. 26 year old Aaron Schwartz, a partner at Reddit, hung himself in 2013. 47 year old Jody Sherman, founder of Ecomom shot himself that year. One of his colleagues, 24 year old Ovik Banerjee, followed a year later. 22 year old Ilya Zhitomirskiy, CEO of Diaspora, took his life in 2011. In Las Vegas one project had three suicides. In an article The Downtown Project Suicides: Can the Pursuit of Happiness Kill You?  they mention Jody Sherman (4/13), Ovik Banerjee (1/14), and Matt Berman (4/14) – all people involved in the Vegas Tech phenomenon. Some people are smart enough to see the writing on the wall. Rand Fishkin stepped down as CEO of Moz in part because of his depression.Rand Fishkin In 2010, suicide was the highest cause of death for people aged 15-49, in the developed world. That’s way above death from lung cancer and murder. In 2013 Newsweek pointed out that the suicide rate in America had been increasing since 1999. Why Is This Happening? We get caught up in the should philosophy. I should have more downloads, more sponsors, more whatever. The bad news is your comparing yourself to someone's numbers who are potentially altered. We look at all the people "Crushing It" on Facebook, Twitter, and nobody sees the struggle. Should is fraught with guilt and remorse. It implies that you can’t change things. So when we feel we are "falling Behind" we start to put poison in our bodies in the form of fast food, and other items that have no nutrition. We then cut back on our sleep to prove we are committed. In this instance when you need to be at the top of your game, you are filling it with junk, and robbing it of sleep. This is like buying cheap gas and punching a hole in your gas tank. Eventually the car is going to come to a quick stop. We are told to DREAM BIG, and if we just focus on our dreams they will become a reality. This puts us into an anxious state, and that is NOT the time to be making decisions. Then we all get INSANELY Focused on our launch, and how we are going to come out of the gate at this breakneck speed, but then we are supposed to KEEP this pace. Anything less than a sprint is a lack of dedication. Think of joining a marathon an hour after it started. There is no way to catch up, but if you run the marathon that is still an undeniable feat. It is still something amazing that takes months of preparation, dedication, and is something a small percentage of people could accomplish. Yet you feel bad, because you're comparing yourself to others.   How to Get Help None of this is intended as medical advice. If you need help, there are people waiting for your call, both friends and professionals:1-800-SUICIDE (1-800-784-2433)1-800-273-TALK (1-800-273-8255) A new Y Combinator-backed startup, 7 Cups of Tea, is trying to tackle one common problem: the affordability of help. When founders are running out of money for their company, that's rarely when they can shell out for a visit to a psychologist or other mental-health professionals. Tim Ferris talks about this in his latest book and he's mentioned it on his podcast that he has struggled with depression. His advice is to adopt of attitude of gratitude.

Did you know that Devon Decker used to play hockey?! If not then you will after listening to this... our first episode where we watch and make fun of or just plain talk over a movie!!!! You'll also probably get sick of Devon commenting that he and Aaron Schwartz have the same birthday. Still that's kind of part of the fun Quack... Quack... Quack, Quack Quack Quack Quack Quack... Goooooo Ducks!

MuggleNet Academia is a comprehensive insight into the literary thematic elements and scholastic endeavors that author J.K. Rowling has provided in her writings of the Harry Potter series. We look through the entire Harry Potter series for various elements in alchemy, literary components, composition attributes, as well as available classes at Universities and Colleges around the world, and various unique studies that are being implemented today. In this lesson, we unpack the classical and medieval ideas and symbols that are embedded in and across the Hogwarts Saga as shared by Professor Rhonda Dubec of Lakehead University in Ontario Canada. We hope to introduce the real Middle Ages, to explore the symbols, culture, and metaphysics of this time as it finds expression in Hogwarts. Our student guests for this show are Nadia Mulvihill, an English Literature graduate and English Teacher from upstate New York, and Aaron Schwartz, a classically trained musician and vocal instructor from Southern California. We hope you enjoy the show. Thank you for listening.

Mike, Tommy, and Kevin debate who would've done the best job as a child actor had these documentaries been made into feature-length films. They also take on the greatest #QuackQuestion to date: Were any players on the Mighty  Ducks secretly gay? Show notes: The full list of actors and their characters can be found at the IMDb pages for each film: D1 D2 D3 Kenan Thompson started his career with D2 in 1994, then got All That the same year. His next two movies were Heavyweights and D3. Kenan didn't get Kenan and Kel until 1996. "I woke up, and the pain was gone." We talked about Banks' inner demons in Episode 12. This is what Aaron Schwartz, the kid who played Karp, looks like now: All the child actors in the Mighty Ducks appear to be alive, based on cursory Google searches. Michael Cudlitz, who played Cole, the blonde-haird bully on Varsity, is Sgt. Abraham Ford in The Walking Dead. Thanks to @wolffchele for the #QuackQuestion. Connie and Guy making out at the end of D1:

Founder of Archive.org discusses the nonprofit’s plan to archive as much information as possible online, for all the world to share for freeTRANSCRIPTSpeaker 1:You're listening to k a LX, Berkeley 90.7 FM and this has method to the madness to show from the public affairs department that celebrates the innovative spirit of the bay area. I'm your host Ali Nisar and today we have Brewster Kale to internet pioneer who is an engineer, entrepreneur, activists advocating for universal access to knowledge for all through his projects. The Internet archive. Stay with us. Speaker 2:We're trying to bring universal access to all knowledge. [00:00:30] Can we build the library of Alexandria version two can you actually take everything ever published? All books, music, video, software, webpages, anything ever meant for public distribution. Make it one, preserve it forever and to make it then available to anybody. Curious enough to want to have access to. So that's the, that's the basic worldview that we're part of a, we're not trying to solve the whole thing, but anything that's missing, we want to try to get to that [00:01:00] goal. That's such an amazing and inspirational vision. I mean, cause it's almost impossible to catalog everything. I would think that's actually quite possible. Yeah, you kind of have that. It's not infinite. It's not, it's not at all. Um, so if you take, um, oh, I don't know, take, take the library Congress for the largest book or print library in the world and by far about 28 million books. Speaker 2:The next ones down are things like, uh, the British library, [00:01:30] the uh, Harvard and New York public library in there and kind of half the size and lead. So the library can exchange gimmick. But if you take a book, it's about a megabyte, about a megabyte, a book. So if you have 28 million megabytes, it goes mega, Giga, Tera, 28 terabytes. And that's 20 terabytes is seven hard drives that you can buy in best buy. And that means in one shopping cart for less than you pay in rent in a month. You get out of all [00:02:00] of the disc storage. I would store all the words in the library of Congress. Speaker 1:Okay, Speaker 2:let's do, and if you do out the math on the other things like movies and music and web pages, it's all completely within our grants. It's just cause the tech, techno, the technical guys have gotten data storage to be so, so dense. And then the access part is this internet. The idea of, of getting it to somebody in Kenya or East Oakland is completely possible. So when did you begin the process? [00:02:30] I this, this really crystallized for me back in 1980 to go and build, uh, try to build the library, but there were a lot of things missing. So I tried to help build some of those, those pieces, uh, leading up to a system that came before the worldwide web, uh, called ways to try to get people to come online in an open way, but the web was better. Um, so I've jumped onto that and then, um, built a couple of companies along the way to try to get the publishers online. Speaker 2:Um, but by 19, 1996, [00:03:00] things were going, uh, well enough. All the Polish was getting online and the basic infrastructure was moving along. And not just because of me, but because of the, everybody was working together towards building that I could say, okay, let's build the library. So we started collecting the World Wide Web and this new organization called the Internet Archive, archive.org and we started archiving the world wide web and we tried to build robot crawlers. Basically the same things that operate the search engines, like Google the disco and visit every [00:03:30] website and download every webpage. And we would basically do every webpage from every website every two months. Then we'd start again and do it again. Do it again, do it again. Do it again. Cause that long it takes to crawl a wet, that's how long we give it. And then because the web is effectively infinite, you know, that was my question that it's, you know, there's these sites that just play chess with you. Speaker 2:So I mean, so you know, there's infinite numbers of, of computer generated web pages. Um, but yeah, it takes us [00:04:00] about two months to go and gather up what it is. It's in a modern search engine. How do you determine which sites are, are um, are we trying to do order the you archive? We tried to do, we tried to do all of them. We biased towards the popular ones. So, uh, we tried to get something from everybody. And then for the, uh, ones that are used a lot, then those are the ones we try to go deeper, but we're talking hundreds of millions of websites. We, we now have 240 billion [00:04:30] pages. Um, and in 19,001 we made a way back machine, so you could go to archive.org and type in a URL. And, um, if we have it, we'll show you all the different versions we have. Speaker 2:You can start clicking around and seeing the web as it was. So the idea of, of preserving this amazing thing that we're building, which is this worldwide web is quite doable even by a nonprofit. So we started working with the library of Congress. We worked with a bunch of different national libraries. [00:05:00] We work with about 200 university libraries, um, and state libraries and archives that they help fund bits and pieces of the Internet archive on the, on the web collection. It's completely exciting and it's working. Uh, we get about a half a million people a day using just the way back machine itself. And so it's a popular resource, uh, out there. But then we thought, okay, well what's this is going along. What else is there to do? So the, another endangered medium was a television and I've had a love [00:05:30] hate relationship with television, uh, burn television anyway. Speaker 2:Said, hey, I watched too much growing up, but it is still a very influential purse, pervasive and persuasive medium. And nobody else seemed to be in the cultural areas, seem to be doing a good archive of it. So in the year 2000, we started, we hit the record button and we started quoting 20 channels, 24 hours a day, DVD quality, so Russian, Chinese, Japanese, Iraqi, Al Jazeera, BBC, CNN, ABC, Fox, whatever, [00:06:00] all these. And then just crunched forward. We're now up to around a hundred channels from 35 countries. Um, and we made these available just a few months ago. Um, at least the television news from the United States from the last three years. We wanted everyone to be, uh, uh, John Stewart Research Department before the last election so that people could go and type in words to try to find out what did their, what did politicians say before about particular [00:06:30] things would have pundits say. Speaker 2:So you could basically go and quote and compare and contrast the elements that require, are required for critical thinking. So we wanted this to happen, so we made this available, um, publicly, and you can get 32nd snippets of these, um, news programs and you can watch those. And if you want the whole program, then we print it on a DVD and send it to you. I charge 25 bucks. So the idea is to try to get this, um, uh, ecosystem to work. [00:07:00] So documentaries can come out and it makes it easier for people to look at television news and critique it because otherwise it just flows over and it's just, these guys can say anything they want and get away with it. So how are we going to basically hold them accountable? Um, make it so that this, these materials are referenceable and making it by URL. Speaker 2:So you can go and refer into news over a period of time. So it's really fascinating. I, I, I wonder though, if you could explain to us about, um, by copyrights. Yeah. So, [00:07:30] so, you know, you mentioned a lot of big net television networks, right? Um, that probably, you know, they have ownership over the content in some way, or how does that work? Um, well, everything's copyrighted forever, it seems, or at least, I don't know, I am not a lawyer on this stuff, but we are a library and the libraries have copyrighted materials. So that's what, that's what libraries are full of. And there are certain things libraries can do with them. Um, for instance, lends, I'm out. So let's take books. So we digitize books, [00:08:00] we've digitized a couple million bucks, uh, and we give them away for free. And so they can be downloaded in bulk. Speaker 2:Uh, we think that that's very important. It's kind of a counter to some of the project by Google with their, with those libraries. Uh, and we worked with the University of California and we had a scanning center in Richmond, California and at UCLA, uh, digitizing books. And we digitized about 300,000 books from, um, those collections. And they're available for free on the net, uh, [00:08:30] for any use at all. Cause they were old enough to be out of copyright. But for the newer ones, the ones since 1923, a lot of them's have rights problems. So we digitize these also, um, largely based on book people donating the books to us and then we make them available to the blind and dyslexic and because we can, so the blind and dyslexic, if they are blind for the library of Congress to get a access, they can have access to now 500,000 [00:09:00] modern books all the way through Harry Potter or whatever, uh, to be able to have, um, free, uh, and easy access to these materials. Speaker 2:But then we wanted to go further than that. Um, so for the books from the 20th century that we've scanned for the 21st century, we would try to buy books and then lend them out one at a time. So there's only one person who can have a copy at a time using the same controls. The publishers use to control the distribution of their imprint works. So [00:09:30] we, we buy these books and we lend them out, but the publishers are selling that many books yet. Um, so we've digitized a lot of these books, let's say from the 20th century and then we lend them out. So you can go to open library.work, which is another side of ours. And then you can go and click and download a pdf of this. But it's one of these special weird PDFs from Adobe that melt in your hands after two weeks, self-destruct, say self-destruct in that sort of a mission, impossible kind of way. Speaker 2:Or you can [00:10:00] check it out and read it on the screen and then while you're reading it on the screen, nobody else can check it out. If you check it back in and then somebody else can use it. And if you forget to check it back in, then it automatically is checked back in so you don't get any library fees and it, um, uh, then somebody else can check it out. And we get, Oh, a couple thousands of 3000 people checking out a book a day. Um, uh, I think so on that order. So you can sound like a member of the archive just like, yeah, you get a library card, it's free. So if you've got an open library.org [00:10:30] you can go and borrow books. If you've got an archive.org you can borrow TV programs. Um, and on the website on the way back machine that's just free and open use. Speaker 2:Um, is there a legal entity for a library or is it just the kind of no, you walk out like a duck, quacks like a duck, you're a library. So, uh, but uh, we were actually, um, there is a particular regulation to be able to get some bandwidth subsidy. Um, you have to get the state librarian [00:11:00] to go and say that your library and California State Library and Susan Hildreth time, uh, said that we were a library, which actually turned out to be very helpful because at one point this, the FBI came and wanted, actually demanded information about a patron and what that patron had done on the Internet archive. And well, libraries have a long history of not liking these sorts of requests. Um, and, but it was done with the Patriot Act, these national security letters with a gag [00:11:30] order. So they basically, they said, okay, you're going to have to give us this information and never tell anybody that you've even been asked this question. Speaker 2:And, um, well it turns out that there's no way to say, uh, no. Can we ask a court from this or anything like that? They said, the only way you can say to pushback, uh, we were advised by the electronic frontier foundation and the was you had to sue the United States government. So we sued the United States government with, with their help [00:12:00] and um, uh, and we won. The FBI backed off immediately. They didn't really need that information. Um, and so we are, uh, so they backed off. Um, and one of the things that was to our advantage was that we were a library. Oh. So because of the state library in it. Yes. There that had verified for this particular use that we were library. But, but there are no real laws saying what a library is. Pretty much you can tell [00:12:30] when you see him. Speaker 1:You're listening to k a LX, Berkeley 90.7 FM university and listener supported radio. This is method to the madness and show from the public affairs department that explores the innovative spirit of the bay area. I'm your host. Tallinn is our, thanks for joining me. And today we've been speaking with Brewster Kale, Internet legend and founder of the Internet archive about open access information and his project [00:13:00] to catalog the output of humanity back to our interview. Yeah. So I mean, just the, the scope of the operation in terms of bandwidth and storage. Um, could you ever dreamed when you, when you envision this in 1980 that these types of um, Speaker 2:oh yeah, it's all very predictable. We're, we're pretty much on path. I mean, it was [00:13:30] these discussions, um, back in like 1883 with Richard Feinman, a physicist and, uh, with, with Stephen Wolfram who, who's gone on to make Mathematica and, and things like that. Yeah. We did not the, the, the, the church and sort of when would we be able to have it be cheap enough to put all books online and when would movies and when would all these other things come online? Yeah, we're pretty much on, uh, on the path detection a little slower than we predicted. So actually I would've imagined we'd be here [00:14:00] by now. It's certainly is assumed. I mean, if I, I talked to yet, you know, younger people, they think, isn't it the library of Congress already online? And I was like, ah, you know, it's really not. And uh, Eh, the Internet's still fairly thin in terms of the information that's on it. Speaker 2:If you really know some subject area, you can look around, there's something on everything, but there's not the depth. Um, so that's the key thing that we've got to do now is fill out the rest of, of what [00:14:30] the best we have to offer. How do we make it so that everything that we'd want is online. So we digitize, if you take the total goal and see books of 10 million books, the library, Congress, 28 million, 10 million book libraries and good solid library, that's the University of California system or Princeton or um, uh, Corey Yale. It's sort of a 10 million book collection. Um, we're at about 2.5 million, so we're a quarter [00:15:00] of the way there. How many per day? We're doing about a thousand to 1500 a day. How does it happen? Um, there are scanning centers in 33 libraries around in eight countries around the world that are operated by the Internet archive. Speaker 2:And, uh, these are scanners that were designed and built by some burning man guys, uh, over in Berkeley. Um, and there are two digital cameras that take pictures of each page. We raised them over a glass to flatten the page, to get a good image. [00:15:30] Um, and basically you can digitize a book in about an hour, all told the cataloging and the whole Shebang. Q and a is searchable. And then it's then it's put to a computer and it munches on it for about 12 hours. It makes it then searchable. It does the optical character recognition. It makes it into PDFs and into the talking books for the blind, um, on and on the all these different formats. And it makes it as available as possible and copies it to another, uh, storage computer in a backup computer in two different locations. [00:16:00] So in case things go down or things disappear. Speaker 2:Um, so the idea is to, to try to give a permanent access to this book and it's now in its digital form. The physical book is not damaged, so we don't break the books. Um, we're kind of obsessive about books. We love books. So, uh, and for the books that don't go back on the library shelves, we actually go and store and, um, have done high density storage in Richmond, California. So we have a [00:16:30] warehouse that now has 600,000 books and it's growing at a couple thousand a day of books that are donated from all sorts of places. And we want one copy of every book ever published so that we can digitize it, um, and either put it back on the library shelf or put it back away. So every book ever published, I mean, that's not infinite, but it's a huge number. Like how do you know what the number is? Speaker 2:Well, I very countered is 28 million. It's probably not that much bigger than that. So maybe, you know, what, 50 million, I'm talking [00:17:00] millions western history or everything. Everything. Yeah. Just go back to Sumerian tablets. I mean, it's, it's not, it's just from a computer perspective, it's not that big. And if you take the same movies, um, the, the number of movies that have been made for theatrical releases, their couple, 100,000 of them, and that's kind of it cause they're expensive to make. And, uh, actually about half of them are Indian. So, uh, so the idea of even doing the whole movies is [00:17:30] quite doable. Um, music, well during the disk era, two 78 long playing records and cds, few million. And that's kind of the number of published. There are gigs that people, you know, play in local bars. So a lot of them aren't recorded, but we have 100,000 concert recordings, uh, from about 5,000 bands. Speaker 2:There was a tradition started by the grateful dead of doing tape trading. Um, so as that moved down [00:18:00] to the Internet, people started trading on the online and so we offered to, to play a host to these materials as long as nobody got upset if people wanted it to happen. And we get two or three bands a day, I'm saying yes, we're up for this. And the fans themselves go and put the materials on the Internet archive sites. So for not archive.org we've got everything the grateful dead has ever done, plus about 5,000 other bands that make something about a hundred thousand concert recordings. So that finding [00:18:30] those ways of working with the system such that we're not trying to interrupt a commerce, we're just trying to be aligned. Great. Just a digital one. Yeah, so there's, there's this sounds like there's a crowdsourcing element you got, you're uploading a lot of information. Oh, absolutely. Thousands of things a day get uploaded at the Internet archive and then they're different from what goes up on Youtube. I mean, if you [inaudible] it's sometimes not as easy to find, you know, whatever, but at least they're there for the long term. Speaker 3:[00:19:00] Okay. Speaker 1:You're listening to k a l ex perfectly in 90.7 FM university in listener supported radio and this is method to the madness, the show from the public affairs department that explores the innovative spirit of the day area. I'm your host. Tallinn is Ark. Thanks for joining me. And today we've been speaking with Brewster Kale, Internet legend and founder of the Internet archive back to our interview. So my listeners understand the context too. Yeah, there's [00:19:30] a really tragic story of Aaron Schwartz that just happened right now. And so there is this question of public domain information and what's open. Can you as a leader at the vanguard of this movement, can you just explain it a little bit about his story? [inaudible] Speaker 2:what a tragedy. Aaron Short is, squirts a good friend and he worked here at the Internet Archive, was a, uh, was the guiding light. Um, he sort of entered the field when he was 14 years old and helped form creative Commons. And when we did the Internet [00:20:00] bookmobile making free books for people, he was involved in and playing a role peripheral at that, at that realm. But he was central towards this be creating of the creative comments, which is kind of 14, 15, 16 years old. Um, and he lived a very public life. He would just publish everything. You sort of lived on the net. He was, I learned what an open source life was like by watching him. Um, so he didn't really have [00:20:30] private journals. He kept it public. Um, and he strove to bring public access to the public domain. And you think that this is, of course, you know, if it's public domain, there'd be public access to it. Speaker 2:And I was like, well, there's some people that aren't that interested in it and he ran up against them. So he made a court records available that were being sold by the government to try and make cost recovery. So he would, uh, made a system to try to make it, [00:21:00] um, such the court documents that were public domain went onto the Internet archive. And this was working with some folks at Princeton and Carl Malamud who lives up in Sebastopol, um, the Internet archive all working together on this. But he did it so fast because he was a good, good at writing script that, uh, the library that he was downloading them from, um, got noticed by the database provider, which I happened to be the government [00:21:30] and they called the FBI on them, called the FBI on somebody to go and, because they're reading the public domain too fast, but this is what happened. Speaker 2:And then, uh, the FBI found that they didn't have anything that could, uh, Hassell this, um, guy with. So there wasn't an ongoing investigation. And then Aaron, uh, wanted to bring public access to the Google books that were done, um, that were in copyright, that were digitized from places like Berkeley [00:22:00] and others. And, uh, and so he went and freed those. And actually there's Google to their credit, didn't complain. Um, but the library, some of the libraries complained to us because Aaron went and put those books on the Internet archive again and we pointed back to Google to see where they came from. And, um, but they're public domain and so was basically just liberating the public domain. And when Aaron started downloading a lot of journal literature from a, from a digital library called j store, [00:22:30] um, a nonprofit, uh, j store got all upset and, uh, told MIT, which is where it was going, it was being downloaded. Speaker 2:There's somebody that's downloading too many articles. And I, MIT went chase down, uh, Aaron and, uh, I think made the tragic mistake of calling the cops. And once the cops were involved and they escalated to the federal government and the federal government put into the secret service and [00:23:00] they made a federal case out of some young guy going and downloading too many old journal articles, um, and not even making them publicly available, maybe it would have made me window. But, um, what's the, what's the problem? And this went on for a couple of years and um, according to the family and his girlfriend made him so depressed and really dragged him down that had contributed to deciding to commit suicide last week. And, [00:23:30] uh, absolutely tragedy. So real starve our community and the federal government came down on somebody. I was trying to do something fundamentally good. And actually it's something that happens all day long every day. People are downloading masses of things from the Internet archive and other digital libraries all the time. And for some reason, um, they thought this kid should be stopped. Speaker 1:And it's so counterintuitive and it's public domain information. That's what I think [00:24:00] as, as you know, people who are growing up on the Internet [inaudible] people at some of the show of students, they don't know anything besides having this wonderful tool at their disposal and find all the information I think could possibly ever want. But it seems with this story and where, you know, it highlights the fact that this isn't something we should take for granted. It's something that we actually actively protecting and fighting for. Speaker 2:Yes, we should be actively protecting the Wikipedia is the Erin Schwartz is the, uh, uh, I'd say [00:24:30] the Internet Archive, the um, uh, Carl Malamud's public, um, public resource.org, um, that are people that are trying to build open access models. This, this bunch in the bay area. There's the Public Library of science, which is trying to, uh, get around the monopoly of, of some of these journal publishers that are, um, not allowing, um, new computer research data mining techniques to be applied. So [00:25:00] there's a real problems to what's going on out there. And there's a schism. There's a, there's a conflict and the Aaron Schwartz suicide, I think really highlighted that we're not out of the woods, but there are people that want to lock everything down and want cell phones that you can't go and play with you. You want to make it so that you can't go and install any software you want to on a computer, um, that you can't just read anything. Or if you do read anything that they'll know about it. And, and that this type of thing has got [00:25:30] to stop. It really doesn't lead to a world that we want to live in. Speaker 1:Well, thank you so much for your time today. I really appreciate it. And you know, as someone who's created a organization that is really dedicated to trying to advance, you know, the acquisition of knowledge for the human race, I wanted to ask you, how do you create an organization that endorsed, like obviously when you're trying to do is create something that goes on Speaker 2:forever? Um, yes. Well, archive.org and open library.org. [00:26:00] Well they go on forever. I hope so. But the, what happens to libraries is they're burned historically. That's just what happens. So library, Congress has already burned once. Library of Alexandria of course is famous for not being around anymore. So designed for it. So make copies. Um, so put other copies in other places. So we've already donated, um, early on about 10 years ago, a full copy of, of the web collection to the library of Alexandria in Egypt. [00:26:30] And there's a partial copy of our, uh, our collections in Amsterdam. So when there are five or six of these around the world and I think I can sleep cause the, what happens is they burn and they're burned by governments. Now it's not a political statement, it's just historically what happens. The new guys don't like the old stuff around theirs, sorry about it afterwards and they, you know, 50 or a hundred years from then they tend to want to have it back. Speaker 2:Um, but often it's too late. But if we had other copies and [00:27:00] other places we could make this work and this takes real work, real, um, real money effort, um, could use all the help we could. Uh, any, any volunteers or any effort from the University of California community? Um, we're just over in San Francisco. We'd love to have visits. We'd love to have five ways to work with more people. Great. That's a great segue to my last question and how do I, if our listeners want to get involved in fighting this good fight, how do they get involved? Um, [00:27:30] please visit archive.org and open library.org. Um, take a look. Play around with it. Try uploading some things. Are you downloading some things? If you're, um, if you've got extra books we want, well, we'll preserve one of every different book that we can get Ahold of. We only have 600,000, so we probably don't have the books that you've got. Um, we could use volunteer effort. We could, uh, people do collections, technical people, all sorts of mechanisms of getting [00:28:00] involved in the Internet archive and the open access movement in general. Okay, great. Well, thanks so much for sharing. Thank you very much. Speaker 1:You've been listening to method to the madness on k a l x Berkeley 90.7 FM.
