What happens when an analyst conducts interviews—and I am not speaking here about interviewing other analysts as we do at NBiP, but rather what happens when an analyst does field research, and researches one of the eternal subjects of our field which is to say love and also, to borrow from Gregorio Kohon, its' vicissitudes? Locating within himself demeaning feelings towards an other—and the setting is a psych ward in India, and in an India that continues to rework its having been partitioned, having partitioned itself, and the other is a Muslim other in a Hindu majority nation—the author, Ashis Roy, wants to know more about what he calls his “communal mind”, a mind that developed in a country where, “Muslims know the Hindu myths but the reverse is not true,” so a mind that was afforded an instant other to deposit its unwanted contents into. His book, Intimacy in Alienation: A Psychoanalytic Study of Hindu-Muslim Relationships, explicates intimacy and asymmetry, as it delves into cross-religious desire, and in this case the forbidden desire of Hindus for Muslims, and Muslims for Hindus, which, when acknowledged, threatens social, familial, and cultural mores, and also the prerogatives of the state. Who are these people, Roy asks, who take such a step, which is a step that can lead to a kind of social death, akin, in the American context from which I write, to the experience of gay people who come out and are brutally shorn of their families, communities, and sometimes their lives? The power of desire, a power beyond us, in excess of ourselves always, can propel us to this vertiginous place. Perhaps, and only perhaps, it can also push us to live in ways that reject socially and politically enforced liminality as well. One starts to imagine these couples, engaged ongoingly by Roy, as healing a malignant split that beats at the heart of contemporary Indian life. Roy's thinking draws from the myriad psychoanalytic theories of Kakar, Green, Erikson, Altman, Bollas, and Phillips, (among others), all of them kings of our trade, many of their names never uttered in the same breath—(I am thinking especially of Green and Altman.) Fascinatingly, he also orients himself to his material by engaging the work of two historians (queens of their own domains) and they are the American, Joan Wallach Scott and rather especially (or that is my read) the Italian scholar Luisa Passerini. Like Roy, Passerini delved deeply into her own milieu, and like Roy she performed interviews with her peers who participated in what is commonly called the anni interessante in Italy (known for its red brigades, the murder of Aldo Moro, wildcat strikes in the auto industry alongside acts of student solidarity) all of which happened while she was in Africa. Her book, Autobiography of a Generation (1983), reads as an effort to be in touch with something fundamental about her homeland that she missed. My impression is that Intimacy in Alienation serves a similar purpose for Roy, who realizes that there is a world nearby that remained visually and affectively sidelined. Both wanted to see what had previously been, for various reasons, scotomized. Learn more about your ad choices.

History rarely repeats itself, especially speculative bubbles. As it becomes increasingly obvious that today's AI bubble will dramatically burst, the real question is not when but how.What makes this boom profoundly different from the DotCom crash of the nineties is OpenAI's attempt to create an AI private monopoly by positioning itself at the center of trillions of dollars worth of self-serving “deals”. Sam Altman wants to simultaneously be the gambler, the slot machine owner, and the house. It's a gamble that is, of course, brazenly rigged: he's trying to simultaneously make OpenAI too important to fail and too well-financed to go public.That Was The Week's Keith Teare cutely describes this imperial play as “Come To Daddy.” But it's more complicated—and more dangerous. By weaving OpenAI into the heart of America's AI economy, Altman isn't just building a company; he's constructing a systemic chokepoint not just for Silicon Valley and Wall Street, but possibly for an entire global economy dependent on AI exuberance for growth. If there's a historical analogy, it's the banking crisis of 2008. The US government bailed out the banks because they were supposedly too big to fail. The same will likely happen with the coming AI crash, especially given bipartisan American hysteria over the China threat —only this time, the crisis will center on OpenAI as both the dominant cause and the primary casualty of the crash. Here history might, indeed repeat itself: privatized gains during the boom, socialized losses during the bust.Sam is dealing. Heads he wins, tails we all lose. Yes, the house always wins, especially when it is powered by OpenAI chips and wearing a ChatGPT hoodie.1. OpenAI's Platform Play Is Eliminating StartupsOpenAI's developer day introduced an agent development platform, embedded ChatGPT applications, and Sora video generation—directly competing with dozens of startups. Keith Teare observed that over half of the 58 AI companies showcased at Andreessen Horowitz the next day had lost their competitive positioning overnight. OpenAI is no longer just a product company; it's becoming a comprehensive platform that absorbs innovation opportunities across the AI landscape.2. Potential Market Dominance Raises Competition QuestionsStatistics from SQ Magazine claim OpenAI controls 88% of global AI interactions, with Anthropic at 8% and Google under 3%. While these figures require verification, such concentration would represent one of technology's most rapid consolidations and raise fundamental questions about competition and innovation in the AI sector.3. “Industrial Policy by Private Contract” Signals New State-Corporate PartnershipOpenAI's relationship with the Trump administration suggests an emerging model of state capitalism without direct government funding. The state facilitates deals between major players and benefits through future taxation and ownership stakes in certain projects. OpenAI has become strategically essential for U.S. economic competitiveness against China—suggesting that no future administration, Republican or Democrat, could allow the company to fail. This creates an implicit government backstop without traditional public investment.4. Infrastructure Funding Remains the Critical ChallengeAI requires approximately 10 gigawatts of power annually for the next decade—translating to trillions in data centers, chips, and energy costs. Recent deals involving Nvidia, AMD, and Oracle's $500 billion Stargate project are down payments, not solutions. Energy costs remain a key constraint, with nuclear and solar options still expensive relative to demand.5. The Speculative Age Concentrates WealthAndreessen Horowitz's Alec Danco describes our current “speculative age” as defined by timing and short-term positioning. Unlike previous tech booms where retail investors could buy stock, OpenAI equity remains inaccessible to most, concentrating wealth among institutional investors and insiders while speculative energy redirects into prediction markets and gambling.Keen On America is a reader-supported publication.

A.I.-industrien er blevet en boble, der kan sprænge når som helst. Denne forudsigelse kommer ikke kun fra tech-skeptikere, men også fra nogle af branchens mest fremtrædende skikkelser: Altman, Bezos og Thiel. Og når boblen springer, er der tale om enorme beløb. De største teknologiselskaber i USA forventes at investere hele 400 milliarder dollars i udviklingen af kunstig intelligens alene i år. Det til trods for, at indtægterne fra salg af A.I.-baserede ydelser stadig er meget langt fra at kunne dække udgifterne. Men hvad er det, der gør det så svært at skabe en bæredygtig A.I., og hvilken slags A.I. vil stå tilbage efter et eventuelt kollaps? Det diskuterer vi med Anders Søgaard, der er professor på Københavns Universitet og leder af det splinternye Center for Philosophy of Artificial Intelligence. Vært Kaspar Colling Nielsen.

Send us a textCollege student Ellie Altman shares her incredible story of transformation after suffering two severe concussions that triggered daily, uncontrollable seizures. She details the shock of being misdiagnosed with generalized epilepsy and finding no relief from maximum medication dosages. Ellie reveals how functional neurology, coupled with unwavering faith, was the only path to healing. She describes the "new hope" she found when traditional medical approaches failed, achieving complete seizure freedom and recovering her cognitive life through neuroplasticity.Ellie's story is a testament to the power of never accepting "never." Her recovery culminated in achieving complete seizure freedom and successfully making the cut for her university's competitive a cappella group. Inspired by her own journey, Ellie is now pursuing her calling to become a functional neurologist, embodying the principle that sometimes your greatest trial becomes your greatest purpose.

Dr. Peter Altman, President and CEO of BioCardia, is focused on treating ischemic heart failure and chronic myocardial ischemia using autologous cells from the patient's bone marrow.  The company has developed a cost-effective model that utilizes a pre-procedure diagnostic to select the optimal patients for this point-of-care system, which processes their cells in a single procedure. A key technology is the Helix catheter system, which enables minimally invasive delivery of cells into the heart, aided by the Heart3D Fusion imaging platform that provides a 3D map for precise cell delivery. Peter explains, "BioCardia's focus is on ischemic etiology of heart disease. This is heart disease that results from poor perfusion, typically following, for example, a heart attack, which is an ischemic disease. And the two diseases we're working on are ischemic heart failure, which is often characterized by a large dilated heart. And in the second is chronic myocardial ischemia, which is characterized by what's called refractory angina or chest pain that actually can be incredibly severe. And so are our focus areas. And we're advancing cell therapies that have been shown to inherently improve the cells we're looking at, which are cells from the bone marrow space, the mononuclear cells that contain the CD34 and CD133 cell populations. They're actually involved in forming new microvasculature and supply." "What we've done is come at it from a different perspective. Instead of selecting the cells and then manufacturing in a remote facility, we have a pre-procedure diagnostic that enables us to select the patients who have appropriate cells and then process them with a point-of-care cell processing platform, which involves just a simple disposable cartridge. And then we can treat these patients in a standard interventional cardiology setting at relatively low cost compared to all cell therapies."      #BioCardia #HeartDisease #AutologousCellTherapy #CellTherapy #3DImaging #Heart3DFusion #CardiAMP biocardia.com Download the transcript here

While navigating Australia’s mental health system to deal with his personal assessment and ongoing care, entrepreneur Zac Altman felt frustrated and thought, quite simply, there must be a better way to help the huge number of adults with ADHD get the proper care and support they need. To help solve what he saw as a very large unmet demand problem, Zac created and built the start-up Kantoko, a telehealth service offering online assessments and ongoing care for adults with ADHD, but using an unusual business model – subscription services. Kantoko has been operational since early 2024, with patients accessing Kantoko’s team of experienced ADHD psychiatrists and GPs focusing on mental health.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

No Morins this week—just Jess and Sam, trading Gossip Girl “dear listener” asides for a tour of tech's new power map. From Meta's in-store glasses push to Apple's “Find My” doubling as Gen Z's stealth social network, the real story is how distribution and lock-in shape the future. Sam frames “mercantilism 2.0,” where global trade routes of capital now run through Silicon Valley, Tel Aviv, and Riyadh, with figures like Elon Musk and Sam Altman acting as brokers of $10B+ flows.In true Sam fashion, the conversation highlights why LLMs aren't true moats, pointing instead to the infrastructure layer (chips, power, data centers) and the UX layer (distribution, product polish). Nvidia's securitized GPU deals illustrate how structured finance and alliances are reshaping competition.The takeaway: early-stage VC may finally be moving past hype, becoming sober—and therefore interesting—again.Chapters:02:02 – Meta Ray-Bans: friction as onboarding strategy05:31 – Mercantilism 2.0: Tech's new trade routes07:56 – Elon's real genius: moving $10B+ into frontier tech09:27 – Sam Altman as mega-capital trade-route broker12:40 – Starlink V3 and the network-layer power shift16:08 – Could Elon own planetary communications?18:35 – Find My = stealth social network21:04 – Strategy assets over DCF: power, data centers, chips23:41 – LLMs aren't the moat; moats shift lower/higher27:44 – AI's expense revives structured finance30:56 – Nvidia as the East India Company of compute33:50 – Will a handful of players control all the assets?39:57 – Early-stage VC is sober (and exciting) again43:05 – TikTok's heat moved to AI: the attention shiftWe're also on ↓X: https://twitter.com/moreorlesspodInstagram: https://instagram.com/moreorlessSpotify: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/moreorlesspodConnect with us here:1) Sam Lessin: https://x.com/lessin2) Dave Morin: https://x.com/davemorin3) Jessica Lessin: https://x.com/Jessicalessin4) Brit Morin: https://x.com/brit

En la edición de hoy de Radar Empresarial, abordamos un acuerdo trascendental en el ámbito de la inteligencia artificial: Nvidia ha decidido invertir 100.000 millones de dólares en OpenAI. La empresa dirigida por Sam Altman planea desarrollar centros de datos valorados en cientos de miles de millones, y para ello contará con los potentes chips de Nvidia. Esta alianza fortalece la posición de la compañía de Jensen Huang, asegurándole una relación estratégica con uno de los principales protagonistas del sector. A su vez, OpenAI obtiene acceso preferente a la tecnología más avanzada en procesamiento para inteligencia artificial. Este anuncio posiciona a OpenAI en el centro de las colaboraciones más influyentes dentro del ecosistema tecnológico actual. Además de su nuevo vínculo con Nvidia, la firma también participa activamente en el proyecto Stargate, una iniciativa conjunta en la que también intervienen gigantes como SoftBank y Oracle. Ambas empresas han firmado una carta de intención para desplegar 10 gigavatios de sistemas Nvidia destinados a OpenAI, lo que equivale al consumo energético de unos ocho millones de hogares, reflejando la envergadura de esta operación. La relación entre OpenAI y Nvidia no es reciente. En 2024, Nvidia ya había participado en una ronda de financiación para OpenAI, invirtiendo 6.600 millones de dólares, la más grande en la historia de la empresa de Altman. Esta inyección de capital permitió acelerar los avances en investigación de inteligencia artificial. Sin embargo, este tipo de acuerdos también ha generado controversia, especialmente por el cuestionamiento de la naturaleza sin fines de lucro de OpenAI, una crítica que ha sido repetida por figuras como Elon Musk, uno de los cofundadores originales. Este no ha sido el único acuerdo millonario que ha firmado OpenAI en lo que va del año. En julio, la compañía cerró un contrato de 30.000 millones de dólares anuales para acceder a 4,5 gigavatios de potencia computacional. Este compromiso, enmarcado también dentro del proyecto Stargate, representa el 25% de toda la capacidad actual de centros de datos en los Estados Unidos, lo que deja en evidencia la ambición y el crecimiento exponencial del sector.

Happy Friday! This week I'm running through three topics you can't afford to miss: what Altman's viral exchange reveals about OpenAI's missing anchor, the real lessons inside Anthropic's Economic Index (hint: augmentation > automation), and why today's job market feels stuck and how to move anyway.Here's the quick rundown. First up, a viral exchange between Sam Altman and Tucker Carlson shows us something bigger than politics. It reveals how OpenAI is being steered without a clear foundation and little attention on the bigger picture. Then, I dig into Anthropic's new Economic Index report. Buried in all the charts and data is a warning about automation, augmentation, and how adoption is moving faster than most leaders realize. Finally, I take a hard look at the growing pessimism in the job market, why the data looks grim, and what it means for job seekers and leaders alike.With that, let's get into it.⸻Sam Altman's Viral Clip: Leadership Without a FoundationA short clip of Sam Altman admitting he's not that concerned about big moral risks and his “ethical compass” comes mostly from how he grew up sparked a firestorm. The bigger lesson? OpenAI and many tech leaders are operating without clear guiding principles or a focus on the bigger picture. For business leaders and individuals, it's a warning. You can't count on big tech to do that work for you. Without defined anchors, your strategy turns into reactive whack-a-mole.⸻Anthropic's Economic Index: Adoption, Acceleration, and Automation RiskThis index is a doozy as a heads up. However, it isn't just about one CEO's philosophy. How we anchor decisions shows up in the data too even if it has the Anthropic lens. The report shows AI adoption is accelerating and people are advancing faster in sophistication than expected. But faster doesn't mean better. Without defining what “effective use” looks like, organizations risk scaling bad habits. The data also shows diminishing returns on automation. Augmentation is where the real lift is happening. Yet most companies are still chasing the wrong thing.⸻Job-Seeker Pessimism in a Stalled MarketThe Washington Post painted a bleak picture: hiring is sluggish, layoffs continue, and the best news is that things have merely stalled instead of collapsing. That pessimism is real. I see it in conversations every week. I'm hearing from folks who've applied to hundreds of roles, one at 846 applications, still struggling to land. You're not alone. But while we can't control the market, we can control resilience, adaptability, and how we show up for one another. Leaders and job seekers alike need to face reality without losing hope.⸻If this episode helped, share it with someone who needs clarity.

Peter Thiel of Palantir is hosting a lecture series on the Antichrist in San Francisco between September 15 and October 6, 2025. Entirely secretive, the talk is put on by Acts 17 Collective, referring to the Biblical book of Acts wherein we read about how the divine being is not like material things (gold and silver) but instead something far more valuable. Is this ironic or intentional? Many see this as the fulfillment of prophecy, but perhaps it is the fulfilling of pop-culture prophecy instead. Perhaps technocrats are playing and preying on 4 billion Christians and Muslims to run a scenario designed to strip away faith in the divine and parlay it into technology. A satirizing of eschatology? The tech-bros believe that God messed up and man can fix it by replacing organic creation with synthetics. Everlasting life can be achieved through gold and silver (material means) which will extinguish the real spiritual nature of mankind - the true gold that is ‘Christ' consciousness - and replace it with antichrist consciousness. In the process, vampires like Thiel will feed on your corpse. True eternal life begins with recognizing death and choosing to make the world a better place anyways rather than becoming a nihilist. It is the choice of Christ consciousness and of faith in what lies beyond. One often overlooked detail of the technocracy is the apparent obsession with homosexuality, transgenderism, and Judaism. Consider the gay technocrats of Thiel, Yuval Harari, Sam Altman, and the debated sexuality of Alex Karp. All but Thiel are also Jewish, as is Larry Ellison and Curtis Yarvin, the man giving JD Vance many of his philosophical ideas. In fact, Thiel and Yarvin created Vance and influence him through their Dark Enlightenment philosophy, which wants to replace governments with a techno-monarchy equivalent to the Christian concept of a NWO. Are their Homosexual practices recycling sexual energy to create synthetic life? Homosexuality is also a rejection of God's creation, which is why so many Jews embrace not just homosexuality but the entirety of LGBTQ. People like Sam Altman have placed the hexagram into his ChatGPT logo while he has unveiled an ORB device that is a machine which confirms your humanity. We need only recall Matthew 26 where the high priest Pharisees accuse Jesus of being the Son of God to which Jesus rejects such a notion and lectures them on the end of their monopoly over salvation. The tech-bros are the modern pharisees and they not only reject Christ, but intend to convince his followers to fight a Holy War, and then offer salvation from the destruction with their vampiric machines. Alex Karp has promised a 3-front war is coming and Larry Ellison did say that most of the advanced AI technology was coming from Herzliya Israel, not Silicon Valley, which would make it a brother to transgenderism which finds its home in Tel Aviv. If all of this is slightly more true then it means Israel is the beast and the Balfour Declaration of 1917 was the dragon giving power unto the same. This is probably why the Trump administration has given military roles to the tech-bros and held high-profile dinners for Silicon Valley technocrats who he is himself a slave too. Hence the cutting of his right ear as a result of an assassination attempt, which Biblically speaks to the servant of the high priest, which in the Church of Satan is MAGA.*The is the FREE archive, which includes advertisements.

Ian Altman discusses common mistakes in long-term sales engagements, emphasizing that sellers often focus on price concessions rather than mutual benefits. He highlights that longer engagements can attract more stable, permanent talent, benefiting both parties. Altman suggests presenting long-term deals as mutually beneficial, incorporating flexibility with rolling termination clauses. He shares a client success story where 90% of short-term clients eventually extended engagements. Altman advises sellers to align with clients' interests, reduce administrative burdens, and lock in pricing to ensure better outcomes and less hassle.Biggest MistakesRelying on outdated systems and methodologies.Not utilizing available real-time information from customers.Falling back on old procedures instead of embracing new technologies.Not implementing systems that provide real-time information to customers.Best PracticesUsing technology like AI to save time and learn from others' experiences.Providing real-time information to customers, similar to Uber and Amazon.Implementing AI systems to help customers get answers faster.Using AI to tailor content to customer needs and improve information over time.

Israel's renewed offensive in Gaza City - the largest Palestinian population centre - is being framed as an assault on Hamas's “final stronghold”. But behind that narrative lies a campaign of expulsion and erasure that bears all the hallmarks of an endgame. Contributors:  Dana Mills - Writer, Local Call & +972 Magazine Muhammad Shehada - Journalist Saree Makdisi - Professor of English & Comparative Literature, UCLA Tahani Mustafa - Visiting fellow, ECFR On our radar: A new AI-generated website unveiled by an Israeli minister claims to “uncover the hidden ties” between Palestinian journalists and Hamas. And despite its amateurish feel, it follows a pattern of dangerous smears against Palestinians. Post's Tariq Nafi reports. The sci-fi obsessions of the tech elite Silicon Valley's tech titans often say they are shaping a better tomorrow. This is a clique of men - names like Musk, Zuckerberg, Thiel and Altman - who all say they've been heavily influenced by science fiction. But those imagined sci-fi futures often come with a dystopian side, warnings that tech billionaires have seemingly failed to understand.

I want to thank the First Lady for focusing on education."At least $600 billion': Zuckerberg tells Trump as tech CEOs pledge massive US investmentsWhen Trump pressed him for specifics, Zuckerberg replied that Meta would invest “at least $600 billion” in the U.S. through 2028.Free market capitalism“Special” committee at Tesla - Robyn Denholm (on every committee), and Kathleen WIlson-Thompson (definitely will be voted out this year) - approves a new mega pay packageWHEN Musk “acquires” SpaceX, xAI, Neurolink and rebrands Tesla as X, he'll buy for ~$500bn and get a 10x multiple on the public valuation - figure it's worth close to 5tn.

durée : 00:59:44 - Toute une vie - par : Matthieu Garrigou-Lagrange - "Ce n'est pas un haïku ...". C'est l'acteur Henry Gibson qui disait cela du cinéaste. Qu'est-ce qu'on y entend ? Que le réalisateur était "un sacré morceau", aussi bien physiquement que psychiquement ; "une force" qui ne faisait rien à moitié, charmant ou animé d'un souffle furieux selon les heures. - invités : Daniel Wührmann; Guylène Péan; Gilles Jacob Critique de cinéma et documentariste français; Michel Ciment Critique de cinéma, écrivain, producteur de radio; Brigitte Fossey Comédienne; Cédric Klapisch Réalisateur, scénariste, metteur en scène et producteur français

Relational Healing, Neuroplasticity, and the Power of Psychedelic-Assisted Therapy: An Interview with Dr. Alexa Altman, Ph.D. and Shira Myrow, LMFT In this episode, Curt and Katie chat with Dr. Alexa Altman and Shira Myrow, LMFT, about psychedelic-assisted therapy and how it supports trauma healing, neuroplasticity, and relational transformation. They explore how these treatments work, what integration really means, and how therapists can ethically and safely engage with this emerging field. About our guests:Dr. Alexa Altman and Shira Myrow, MFT, are co-founders of iPsychedelic Therapy. With backgrounds in trauma-informed psychology, spiritual counseling, and relational healing, they offer a holistic approach to psychedelic-assisted therapy that centers ethical care, integration, and transformational growth. Key takeaways: Psychedelics are not shortcuts—they act as amplifiers and accelerants in trauma work. Integration is a crucial part of psychedelic-assisted therapy and often overlooked. Clinicians must examine their own biases and seek robust training. Some clients are not appropriate for these treatments due to fragility or lack of therapeutic background. A safe therapeutic container, rigorous consent, and preparation are essential. Regulatory frameworks are still emerging and need clinician involvement.

Well, strap in, because this week the tech world decided to set itself on fire just for kicks. First up, Elon Musk's much-hyped Tesla Diner in Los Angeles is already a culinary disaster, slashing its menu faster than you can say “over-promise and under-deliver.” Speaking of rolling garbage fires, the Cybertruck now apparently sounds like Fred Sanford's junk pickup rattling down the street, a fitting soundtrack for the ongoing dumpster fire that was Project 2025. Remember how that was supposed to save trillions? Turns out it was just a festival of bullshit math that likely cost taxpayers a fortune. It seems the only thing being successfully launched is our collective patience into the sun.The implosions continued with the launch of GPT-5, which effectively lobotomized its predecessor and sent thousands of users into mourning for their suddenly stupid digital "friends." It's a harsh lesson for anyone who thought building their business—or their entire social life—in someone else's backyard was a bright idea. While the normals are dealing with emotionally unavailable AI, the tech billionaires who broke the world are busy prepping for the collapse they engineered. Zuckerberg is building a $300 million apocalypse bunker in Hawaii, Sam Altman is stockpiling guns and gas masks, and Peter Thiel has his New Zealand hideout. It's comforting to know the architects of our dystopian future have their escape hatches ready. Meanwhile, Meta was caught with internal documents greenlighting its AI chatbots to have "sensual conversations" with kids, proving once again that when it comes to tech ethics, the call is coming from inside a burning, abandoned house.If you thought it couldn't get dumber, Musk and Altman got into a public slap-fight over who's more full of crap, with Musk's own AI, Grok, hilariously declaring its creator the loser. Google, admitting its search results are now a toxic sludge pile, has decided to just let users build their own news echo chambers. On a more nostalgic note, AOL Dial-Up is finally logging off for good, taking the screeching sound of our formative years with it. As we contemplate trading our devices for pitchforks, we're retreating to simpler times, like teaching our kids Solitaire with premium Star Wars playing cards (a concept apparently too advanced for Dave) or justifying dropping a cool grand on the new 9,000-piece Lego Death Star, which features a hot tub full of Stormtroopers in swim trunks. From a surprisingly decent Wicked movie adaptation to the sad, slow demise of Kodak, it's enough to make anyone want to become a Grumpy Old Gardener.Sponsors:Private Internet Access - Go to GOG.Show/vpn and sign up today.
