Horror history spirals into paranoia and infection this week—from The Thing's frozen body horror to 28 Days Later's rage-virus chaos, The Omen's cursed bloodline, 1408's haunted hotel nightmare, and Quake's gothic digital terror. Henrique explores how June 22–28 birthed some of horror's most influential outbreak and supernatural films, dissecting what made them landmarks in horror legends and why they still feel dangerously relevant today.Inside this episode:• 1408 turns one hotel room into a psychological pressure cooker, trapping a skeptical writer inside a space that studies him, wounds him, and refuses to let him leave.• The Omen gives the evil-child movie one of its classiest and creepiest landmarks, with the Antichrist hiding behind privilege, elegance, and a terrifyingly calm little smile.• 28 Days Later drags outbreak horror into the 21st century with empty London streets, sprinting infected, digital grime, and the terrifying idea that civilization can collapse almost overnight.• Quake opens a slipgate into gothic castles, wet tunnels, shambling monsters, Lovecraftian dread, and a diseased industrial soundscape that helped reshape horror-tinged gaming.• The Deep-Cut Spotlight goes to The Thing, John Carpenter's 1982 alien paranoia nightmare about imitation, isolation, mistrust, Rob Bottin's legendary effects, and the terrifying question of who is still human.Plus: a horror birthday roll featuring Bruce Campbell, Peter Lorre, Isabelle Adjani, and Kathy Bates, a creepy look at how horror teaches us to distrust the obvious, and a weekly recommendation for Twilight Zone: The Movie, the complicated 1983 anthology film that brought Rod Serling's nightmare world to the big screen.From haunted rooms and Antichrist children to rage-infected streets, gothic gaming nightmares, Antarctic isolation, alien imitation, blood tests, body horror, and the cold collapse of trust, this week proves horror history can make monsters out of places, people, memories, machines, and the person standing right beside you.

This unique BBC radio programme is aimed at just a few dozen listeners: The team of scientists and support staff isolated at British research stations in the Antarctic midwinter.Hosted by Cerys Matthews, the show features messages from family and friends at home as well as music requests from Antarctica. For decades it has been part of the traditional midwinter celebrations and, since 2020, it's been enjoyed by listeners around the world. Midwinter celebrations at the British research stations include a feast, exchange of presents, watching the 1982 horror film The Thing (where an alien monster terrorises an Antarctic base) and listening - on short wave - to the BBC's Midwinter Broadcast.A Boffin Media Production for BBC World Service

Hey there friends and weirdos! This week Nile takes us to the freezing waters of the Antarctic where a crew of Japanese sailors witnessed none other than...a Godzilla. Well, a godzilla-esque cryptid, at least. And its name IS officially Antarctic Godzilla, so there's that. What fuzzy, dorsal fin-having beast lurks in these cold ocean waters and can it propel itself fifty feet into the air by rocketing out of the ocean? Or is this a tall tale that spread through folklore and mistranslation? All this and much more!

As 2026 reaches its halfway point, a group of Australian scientists have jumped into the icy Antarctic waters to take part in the annual midwinter swim. The event is a way for scientists to reflect on their scientific journey and achievements ahead of the winter solstice.

A deep dive conversation based on the moviescramble.co.uk review written by John McArthur. Following the Antarctic bloodshed in AVP: Alien vs. Predator (2004), a crippled Predator spaceship crash-lands in the dense forest of Gunnison, Colorado. But no one can escape from the aggressive Aliens (1986). As a vicious Predalien hybrid and myriads of Stage 1 Face-hugger Xenomorphs scatter in all directions, the Earth becomes a battlefield for two extraterrestrial species fighting for supremacy. With humans caught up in a brutal face-off, it is up to Sheriff Eddie Morales and a handful of inexperienced residents to defend the city. However, motivation alone is not enough--this time, the fate of humankind hangs in the balance.

It'd be easy, with the clusterf**k of crazy-making economic, geopolitical, and democracy-in-decline news dominating the scene, to forget that the unraveling of environmental systems waits for no person. That's why we've asked Emily Schoerning to return to Crazy Town. Asher and Emily sit down together (uh, virtually) to discuss the oceanic dynamics – from worrisome to downright apocalyptic – that could make the Strait of Hormuz disruption look like a five-minute wait at the Starbucks drive-thru. In this episode they discuss the possibility of a 2026-2027 Super El Niño, the growing risks of an AMOC collapse, and how each of us can approach near- and longer-term resilience.Originally recorded on 5/20/26.Sources & LinksAmerican ResiliencyLinks to graphs/resources that Emily mentioned:NOAA ENSO Update (see page 23) Columbia El Nino UpdateClimate Reanalyzer (to visualize average SST changes as a graph)Zach Labe's visualizations (to visualize currently non-apocalyptic Antarctic sea ice)Copernicus (to visualize SST anomalies on world map)Atlantic meridional overturning circulation slowdown modulates atmospheric rivers in a warmer climate by Mimi, M.

In this Tuesday brief of The Wright Report, Bryan unpacks the latest on the US-Iran Peace Memo, which still hasn't been released to the public, and what VP JD Vance's televised comments reveal about what may or may not be in it. With the Strait of Hormuz still not fully open, nearly 500 ships stuck in the Persian Gulf, and Iran's lead negotiator already offering a very different version of the deal than the White House, the stakes couldn't be higher. Bryan walks through why the text is being withheld until after Friday's signing in Switzerland, what that says about the political strategy behind the deal, and why Netanyahu is making clear that Israel considers itself bound by none of it. Plus, California Governor Gavin Newsom is under DOJ investigation, surveillance pricing is costing you up to 30% more on everyday purchases based on your digital footprint, SpaceX wants to put AI data centers into low Earth orbit while a Peter Thiel-backed startup wants to drop them into Antarctic waters, and new research shows a ketogenic diet may protect against Alzheimer's, Parkinson's, and other neurodegenerative diseases.

Old chemicals found in two historic Antarctic huts could be explosive according to a chemistry professor. The chemicals, which have remained at Scott's hut and Shackleton's hut for over 100 years, could contain pictric acid crystals and peroxide crystals. Antarctica NZ is aiming to dispose of the chemicals, but it will depend on sea ice conditions as to when they'll be able to get there. Luka Forman reports.

This week, we're diving beneath the ice to talk about some Antarctic conspiracies. This was all kicked off by a recent news article about a sub mysteriously going missing beneath the ice. What we found was thin at times, but definitely entertaining.If you like our pod, consider purchasing Ashton's new short fiction collection, The Dark Humor Will Continue Until Morale Improves: https://books2read.com/u/bML2gVIf you need help sorting out your finances, check out John's new site: https://www.thebudgetarchitect.com/Intro Music Licensed from:Composers:Felipe Adorno Vassao (ABRAMUS)Publishers:Lynne Publishing (PRS)Content provider: LynneMusic

We began by asking one of humanity's most pressing questions: What if the Bible has been secretly giving us directions to American landmarks this whole time? We examined theories involving overlaid maps of the Middle East, hidden symbols in U.S. geography, the Gates of Babylon, and connections between ancient Hebrew references and modern-day Utah. It turns out that if you are willing to move enough maps around, almost anything can become a prophetic revelation, including, presumably, a shopping mall in Ohio. We revisited familiar arguments about whether the Apollo missions were genuine achievements of science or elaborate productions made with technology rivaling a 1970s science-fiction movie. Along the way, we considered Russian skepticism, flat earth theories, Antarctic ice walls, and the enduring belief that governments are capable of hiding virtually anything from the public, except tax deadlines. From there, we turned our attention to artificial intelligence, which is rapidly advancing toward a future in which robots may drive us across town, deliver supplies in hospitals, and judge our inability to remember internet passwords. We discussed autonomous vehicles operating in Atlanta, humanoid robots under development, and the unsettling prospect of entrusting our care to machines whose understanding of compassion rivals drink dispensers. Popular culture has spent decades warning us about this outcome, although in fairness, movies also convinced us that fax machines would be important forever. We explored Bigfoot, cryptids, ghosts, and biblical accounts involving spirits communicating with human beings. Rather than treating these topics as mere folklore, we considered them through a theological lens, discussing demonic deception, the story of Saul and the witch of Endor, and the challenge of discerning what experiences should be understood as spiritual realities rather than unexplained phenomena. Few podcasts allow for a transition from self-driving cars to ancient necromancy, but we strive to provide a well-rounded experience. Eventually, we arrived at the universal language of childhood memories. We reminisced about the household remedies and candies that shaped entire generations, including Mentos, Vicks Vapor Rub, hot sauce, and the unwavering confidence of adults who believed that applying enough ointment could address any medical concern. These products occupied a curious space between medicine, tradition, and family mythology, passed down with the same certainty usually reserved for the laws of physics. By the end, we had traveled from biblical geography to moon conspiracies, from robot caregivers to Bigfoot, and from ghost stories to the healing reputation of Vicks Vapor Rub. Somewhere between questioning official narratives and remembering the candy of our youth, we found ourselves reflecting on the stories people inherit, the explanations they construct, and the remarkable human ability to approach both ancient mysteries and chest congestion with absolute conviction.

Workers in Ushuaia warn that Argentina's federal takeover of the port could jeopardize the 2026-27 Antarctic cruise season, with more than 140 locked-out staff and threats of indefinite protests that could push operators toward Punta Arenas, Chile. Victoria, BC — Canada's busiest cruise port — welcomes three first-time callers in two days: Princess's Star Princess, Virgin's Brilliant Lady, and Silversea's Silver Nova. And Dover marks its first-ever four-ship day as the UK port heads for a fifth straight year of growth toward roughly 200,000 passengers in 2026.

On November 21, 1915, the hope of Sir Ernest Shackleton and his twenty-seven crew members sank, along with their ship Endurance, into the dark below the Antarctic ice. They were stranded, thousands of miles from home. Later, the crew shared several things that aided their survival, including a banjo. Embarking on their brutal trek, Leonard Hussey (the expedition’s meteorologist) was the only person allowed more than two pounds of personal gear. He was allowed to bring his twelve-pound Windsor banjo. “It’s vital mental medicine,” Shackleton told Hussey, “and we shall need it.” The crew’s journals explained the power of Hussey’s music. “The banjo does . . . supply brain food,” wrote one sailor. Another reflected on “Hussey’s indispensable banjo.” The Bible presents music as one of God’s immense gifts, a way His healing and comfort enter the human heart. In the tragic story of King Saul, we hear how (due to his disobedience) he was oppressed by an “evil spirit” (1 Samuel 16:14). And what did Saul’s attendants believe the king needed to provide relief? Music. So, they found young David with his harp. “David would take up his lyre and play. Then relief would come to Saul; he would feel better, and the evil spirit would leave him” (v. 23). Music offers more than mere entertainment. It can bring joy, renew hope, and comfort weary souls. It’s truly one of God’s powerful gifts.

In this episode, I use the extraordinary true story of Ernest Shackleton’s 1915 Antarctic expedition to show exactly what it looks like when a leader refuses to let hope become the plan — and what happens instead.Hope Is Not a Strategy: The Lesson Shackleton Already KnewWhen Shackleton’s ship, The Endurance, became locked in Antarctic ice in 1915, there was no rescue coming. No technology. No timeline. What he understood — and what Viktor Frankl later documented in Man’s Search for Meaning — is that people who attach their emotional survival to a hoped-for outcome are the most fragile people in the room. Frankl could identify the prisoners who would die first in the concentration camps. They were the ones who had pinned everything to a specific date — Christmas, a promised release. When that date passed, they fell apart. So did Shackleton’s carpenter, who began to spread dissent among the crew. Shackleton stopped it immediately. He understood that one person’s emotional collapse, if left unchecked, could kill everyone. The lesson isn’t that hope is bad. It’s that hope as your primary psychological strategy is dangerous. It keeps you on the edge of fear — one disappointment away from crashing. Hope Is Not a Strategy — Present-Moment Living IsWhat Shackleton’s crew did instead is something I’ve watched the most successful people I’ve ever coached do in their own lives. They didn’t just survive Antarctica — they lived there. They played football on the ice. They put on theatrical performances. They took care of their sled dogs. They chose to make the experience of being where they were as full and human as possible, while using the goal of getting home as direction — not salvation. I see this same pattern play out for entrepreneurs and business owners every week. When a sale falls through, when the numbers don’t match the picture in your head, when you get a bad review or a rejection — the people relying on hope crash. The people living fully in the moment, with understanding and awareness instead of hope, stay stable. That stability is what keeps your frequency aligned with what you’re building. When your emotions drop, your vibration drops, and you begin attracting more of what you don’t want. What Disappointment Is Really Telling YouDisappointment is a hidden expectation. Every time you feel it, it’s a signal that somewhere underneath, you were relying on a specific outcome to be okay. That’s hope doing its quiet damage. The shift I’m teaching here is from hope to understanding — from ‘I’m surviving until things change’ to ‘I’m fully alive in what is, while moving toward what’s next.’ Your goal gives you direction. But who you become in the journey is the whole point. If you’ve been riding the emotional highs and lows of your business or your life — this episode is the conversation that reorients everything.

Earth is a living planet. But how much life is there, and what is it doing? We will discuss the distribution of biomass on Earth, and compare the effects of microbes, wild animals, domesticated animals. The aim of this lecture is to provide concrete examples of how life is woven in with the rest of the planetary engine, expanding the importance of biodiversity from sentiment alone to a matter of survival for both whole ecosystems and our own civilisation.This lecture was recorded by Helen Czerski on the 23th of March 2026 at Bernard's Inn Hall, LondonHelen Czerski is a physicist and oceanographer with a passion for science, sport, books, creativity, hot chocolate and investigating the interesting things in life. She is a Professor at the Department of Mechanical Engineering at University College London and her research focus is the physics of breaking waves and bubbles at the ocean surface. These bubbles change underwater sound and light, help transfer gases from ocean to atmosphere (helping the ocean breathe) and also eject ocean material into the air. She has spent months working on research ships in the Antarctic, the Pacific, the North Atlantic and the Arctic, and is an experienced field scientist. Helen has been a regular science presenter on the BBC for 15 years, covering the physics of the natural world in BBC2 landmark documentaries (including ‘Orbit', ‘Operation iceberg' and ‘Supersenses'), and the physics of everyday life in a range of BBC4 documentaries (including ‘From ice to fire: The incredible science of temperature', ‘Sound waves: The symphony of physics', and ‘Colour: The spectrum of science', along  with many others). She currently co-hosts BBC Radio 4's flagship climate and environment programme Rare Earth. Helen's first book Storm in a Teacup won the Italian Asimov Prize and the Louis J. Battan Author prize from the American Meteorological Society. Blue Machine won the Wainwright Prize for Conservation Writing. She was awarded the Institute of Physics Gold Medal in 2018 for her work on physics communication, and an Honorary Fellowship of the British Science Association in 2020. She has been a Trustee of Royal Museums Greenwich since 2018, and was one of the 2020 Royal Institution Christmas Lecturers, giving her Lecture on the topic of the ocean. The transcript of the lecture is available from the Gresham College website: https://www.gresham.ac.uk/watch-now/living-planetGresham College has offered free public lectures for over 400 years, thanks to the generosity of our supporters.

Adélie penguins are the smallest and most widespread penguin species in the Antarctic, and one place you find them is Cape Royds. Conservation biologist Louise K. Blight is one of very few people who's spent time in the remote field camp in Cape Royds, living alongside those penguins, and doing field research. We'll talk to the author of “Where the Earth Meets the Sky: A Story of Penguins, People, and Place in Antarctica," about the magic and mystery of Antarctica, the power of solitude, and what it's like to be courted by an emperor penguin?

Blue carbon may help slow climate change. Antarctica and the Southern Ocean are storing far more carbon than scientists once realized. In this episode, marine ecologist Dr. Narissa Bax explains how deep-sea corals, sponges, algae, and microscopic marine life help remove carbon from the atmosphere and lock it away in ocean sediments for centuries. The conversation explores Antarctic blue carbon, climate change, carbon sequestration, deep-sea ecosystems, marine protected areas, ocean governance, and the growing scientific effort to understand the Southern Ocean's role in regulating Earth's climate. The episode also examines how Antarctic conservation policy, biodiversity protection, and climate-smart marine spatial planning could shape the future of one of the planet's most important and least understood ecosystems.Support our science communication by joining us on Patreon or sending us a gift on PayPalEpisode Transcript and more information on the Pine Forest Media websiteFollow Pine Forest Media on Instagram @pineforestmediaHosted, produced, and edited by Clark Marchese Find Dr. Narissa Bax website here.

Nick the Rat Radio Episode 541 Scientists just confirmed it: a entire civilization built 35,000 stone monuments across Europe, dragged quartz boulders 60 miles to place them on fault lines with surgical precision — and then disappeared without a war, without a fire, without a single written word. No genetic trace in anyone alive today. A University of Copenhagen study dropped this year and barely anyone's talking about it. Nick the Rat is. Tonight we get into the piezoelectric grid theory, the Kyoto University solar flare research, and why a Neolithic infrastructure project might have cooked its own builders from the inside out. Plus mammoth bones that turned out to be a whale, a caller from inside a correctional facility, and Jane Hanoi reports from the Dark Sewer Network on Antarctic mole cities and alien dairy farmers who don't know what they're doing. #AncientCivilization #LostCivilization #Megaliths #Stonehenge #Carnac #AncientDNA #Conspiracy #NickTheRat #PiezoElectric #SolarStorm #UnexplainedHistory #AlternativeHistory #ConspiracyPodcast #UndergroundMedia #DarkSewerNetwork #sewerchat A paranoid rat discusses conspiracies, secret agendas, and things they don't want you to know — while playing hand-picked underground music.

Beneath the ice of Antarctica, something has been watching the surface for thousands of years — and the four scientists who finally saw it watching back never spoke a word of it on the record. | May 24, 2026HOUR ONE: 
We travel to the Antarctic – onto it, over it, and under it… and find some strange, and often terrifying things during the trip. (Antarctic Apparitions And Eerie Enigmas)===HOUR TWO: We are all familiar with humans' desire to fly. There are many legends about flying horses in various parts of the world, and they all have common characteristics that make them difficult to dismiss as only aviation dreams of the ancient people. Do some myths and legends reveal ancient people had sufficient technical knowledge to produce sophisticated flying machines? (Ancient Mechanical Flying Horses) *** A man in China claims to have been abducted by aliens not just once… not just twice… but three times. But will you believe his story after hearing the details? (Flying on an Alien's Back) *** There's an odd grave marker at Riverside Cemetery in Wahpeton, North Dakota – and an odd story that goes along with it. I'll tell you about the strange obelisk draped in rope and chains. (The Wahpeton Circus Grave) *** Those who walk along the wooded Hinds Road in Gadsden, Alabama should be wary, for there is a legend that residing there is a witch who sold her soul to the devil. (The Gadsden Witch of Alabama) *** You may think that a ghost referred to as ‘Humpty Doo' might be fun-loving and perhaps even a little goofy. However, Humpty Doo is an Australian slang term that means everything is being turned upside down...and, fittingly, it is also the name of the town where some bizarre poltergeist events took place.

An Antarctic drilling crew uncovers something impossible beneath four thousand meters of ice—but by the time they realize it's alive, it's already aboard their ship. As paranoia, violence, and infection spread through the crew, one survivor discovers the real horror may not be the creature controlling them…but what it awakens inside him.

A sleeping bag on the ice as “bed number 75” might be the most unexpected invitation we've ever heard, but it kicks off a real conversation about what it's like to travel to Antarctica and how to plan it well. We talk with an experienced traveler who's been three times, including a trip to the Antarctic Peninsula with her dad and a rare, explorer-style route to the Ross Sea that only a tiny number of tourists ever see.We get practical about Antarctica expedition cruise logistics: where ships depart (hello, Ushuaia), why the Drake Passage earns the nickname “Drake Shake,” and what actually helps if you're prone to seasickness. We also dig into the choices that change your trip the most, like ship size, how zodiac landings work, and why smaller vessels can mean more time on shore. Along the way, we explore research bases, the surprising “international village” feel of Antarctica, and why the continent feels like the closest thing to leaving Earth.Wildlife is the heartbeat of the planning. We compare seasons for nesting penguins, fluffy chicks, and whale sightings, plus detours that can be even wilder than Antarctica itself, like South Georgia, the Falkland Islands, and remote sub-Antarctic islands. We also cover conservation and biosecurity rules, including decontamination protocols and newer restrictions designed to protect fragile colonies.If you're searching “best time to visit Antarctica,” “Antarctica cruise tips,” or “Ross Sea expedition,” this one will help you decide what's worth the cost and the long sea days.

In this week's episode, both of our storytellers share tales about whales. Part 1: As a child, Brittany Munson dreams of growing up to be a whale trainer. Part 2: As a marine scientist focused on living creatures, Maya Santangelo is convinced that diving to explore an old whaling shipwreck in the Antarctic will be boring. Brittany Munson is a Lead Educator at the California Science Center, where she engages public audiences in exploring various science topics and activities. With a degree in Aquatic Biology from UC Santa Barbara, she has chased her passion for the ocean from the coral reefs of the Bahamas to the icy waters of Alaska, where she spent two seasons as a naturalist. Most recently, she served as a Lead Science Communication Fellow aboard E/V Nautilus, sharing deep-sea exploration with the world in real-time. When she isn't advocating for marine life or planning her next expedition, you can find Brittany tending to her indoor jungle as a devoted plant mom or salsa dancing on Sunday nights. She calls Long Beach home. Maya Santangelo is a professional nerd, diver, and marine scientist. Working in the dive and expedition industry for more than 15 years, Maya's experiences as the 2016 Australasian Rolex Scholar of the Our World Underwater Scholarship Society cemented a passion for science communication and ocean education to enhance meaningful travel experiences. Since 2017, Maya has worked as an Undersea Specialist with Lindblad Expeditions-National Geographic, diving and filming underwater around the world to share what would otherwise be out of sight, out of mind. With a focus diving in the Antarctic for the past 6 years, she has become especially interested in researching and educating about marine conservation through fisheries management and sustainable seafood choices. Alongside this role, Maya works above and below the surface to research the habitat use of the critically endangered school shark, the diet and trophic ecology of the widely distributed leopard seal, and the remote population of manta rays in French Polynesia's Marquesas Islands.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

Did you know the ocean contributes at least 50% of the world's oxygen? We often talk about what's happening on the land in farming on the podcast - but what's happening in the oceans, in both fishing and farming, also deserves our attention, as Alistair and I tease out in this show - the parralels are striking regarding what's going on in both globally. Alistair Allen has been an activist since he finished high school, working his way up to Captaining a Sea Shepherd ship and is now Antarctic and Marine Campaigner at the Bob Brown Foundation.He's also incredibly skilful at explaining the full picture of a ‘bad thing' and all of the downstream effects harming people, animals and the planet. We talk: Krill Fishing and the havoc it is wreaking on Antarctica and beyondOcean Current Slowdown and Why This MattersFactory Farming of Salmon and the devastating impact in Tasmania and globally.What we can all do to change both consumer habits and lend our signature and voice to these issues. I hope you find this helps you understand the “factory fishing and farming” happening in our oceans, looking at these two different, yet connected, issues. I learned SO MUCH.

Rainy day vibes hit different when the entire show immediately derails into one of the greatest debates of all time: who gets shotgun when your wife, girlfriend, mom, or mother-in-law all pile into the same car? The gang dives headfirst into front-seat etiquette, backseat politics, and whether “calling shotgun” still exists in modern society or if today's kids are too busy staring at TikTok to care. Turns out the sacred car ride hierarchy may be collapsing in real time, and honestly… civilization may not recover.This episode of The Rizzuto Show — your favorite daily comedy disaster factory — also includes one of the most chaotic cruise stories we've ever covered. What started as a luxury Antarctic expedition turned into a floating nightmare involving hantavirus, quarantines, emergency evacuations, and passengers trapped aboard wondering if they accidentally booked a plague-themed getaway package. Lern once again confirms she will NEVER go on a cruise, while the guys somehow pivot into discussing body boats, cannon funerals, and whether pirates would rob a quarantined ship. As one naturally does.Meanwhile, Rizz shares a brutal local story involving obituary burglars who targeted a grieving family's home just hours after a funeral. The crew reacts to the heartbreaking theft while Lern opens up about a deeply personal family experience involving addiction, theft, and second chances. It's one of those classic Rizz Show moments where the jokes stop just long enough to remind you there are actual humans underneath all the sarcasm and nonsense.Then because apparently nobody can experience peace anymore, the gang dives into IRS scam letters, QR-code fraud, and “ghost tapping” — a new scam where thieves can allegedly steal your card information by bumping into you in public. Suddenly everyone's considering wrapping themselves in aluminum foil and moving to a cabin in the woods with Moon Valjean. Honestly? He's halfway there already.Also in this glorious mess:Rainy day roast dinnersWindow-down car ride elitismWhy shotgun rules absolutely matterRFID wallets somehow becoming controversialWhy Canada apparently protects Lern's walletPickpocket survival tips for EuropeHome Alone-level burglary defensesAnd Neil deGrasse Tyson calmly explaining what happens to your body after death while the crew spirals into existential nonsense.This is the kind of daily comedy chaos only The Rizzuto Show can deliver: weird news, hilarious fails, accidental life advice, St. Louis sarcasm, and the exact amount of emotional instability needed to survive modern society.If you love a daily comedy show packed with ridiculous stories, sarcastic humor, celebrity nonsense, bizarre internet drama, and the occasional horrifying cruise update, congratulations — you found your people.Follow The Rizzuto Show → linktr.ee/rizzshow for more from your favorite daily comedy show.Connect with The Rizzuto Show Comedy Podcast online → 1057thepoint.com/RizzShow.Hear The Rizz Show daily on the radio at 105.7 The Point | Hubbard Radio in St. Louis, MO.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

In this episode of Tiny Show and Tell Us, we welcome our first‑ever guest, podcast producer and dinosaur enthusiast Steven Ray Morris. Together, we dive into three wildly different stories. First, we explore a major advancement in HIV prevention: a newly approved twice‑yearly injectable drug called Lenacapavir. We chat about how it works, why it's a huge shift from daily pills or monthly shots, and the challenges around global access. Next, Steven takes us deep into the (mostly chilly) past — to Antarctic dinosaurs! What scientists are learning about these dinos is shifting what we think we know about where, and how, dinosaurs lived. Finally, Deboki breaks down the science behind blood flow restriction therapy, a rehabilitation technique that helps injured muscles rebuild strength using lighter loads. As always, Tiny Matters is not giving anything that could be interpreted as medical advice! Deboki also reveals she's into weightlifting. So yeah, don't mess with Deboki!

Michael Arden joins the show to discuss the monumental task of bringing The Lost Boys to Broadway and the technical alchemy required to turn a cult classic film into a soaring musical experience. He opens up about his "mad lib" approach to stagecraft, explaining how he utilizes traditional theatrical tools in unexpected ways—like tilting the entire orientation of a set to keep an audience off-balance or ensuring the set moves entirely on its own to make the space feel "alive". Michael also reflects on the high-stakes pressure of bypassing an out-of-town tryout, the "fearless skydiving" energy of his cast during a grueling preview process, and his years-long quest to convince his favorite band, The Rescues, to join him in the theater. The conversation also dives into Michael's deep-seated love for the "visual feast" of theater, tracing back to his childhood days rigging special effects in his garage. He shares how his collaboration with the design team at At Rise Creative allows for a "crash and burn" mentality that eventually leads to the most innovative solutions, from the irising neon boxes of Maybe Happy Ending to the complex verticality of the Palace Theater. Looking ahead, Michael previews his upcoming work on Happy Feet, discussing the challenge of mashing up music and integrating massive puppetry to bring the Antarctic to the stage. Michael Arden is a distinguished, two-time Tony Award winning director, recently honored for Best Direction of a Musical for Maybe Happy Ending. In 2023, he won the Tony Award for the acclaimed revival of Parade, following previous nominations for Once On This Island and Spring Awakening. He is the co-founder of At Rise Creative and has directed a wide range of works, including the 2024 Met Gala and Ben Platt's concert residencies. Beyond his directing credits, Michael is an accomplished performer who has appeared on Broadway in Big River and King Lear, as well as in television and film projects like The Marvelous Mrs. Maisel and Source Code.

Cntarctic Blasts and Economic Shifts in the Australian WinterGuest: Jeremy Zakis Summary: Jeremy Zakis describes a harsh onset of winter in Sydney, driven by cold Antarctic air funneled through a high-pressure corridor,. While Sydney faces near-freezing overnight temperatures, Tasmania recently recorded a record-breaking 70°F due to El Niño conditions and a southern warm front. The conversation also highlights the economic strain of soaring fuel prices, with diesel reaching approximately $8.85 per gallon, prompting many commuters to switch to public transport,. Despite these costs, consumer spending remains resilient as people shift toward online shopping, while domestic heating continues a transition from gas to electric and solar-powered systems,.1900  QNL
