Chris vs the Fans, a Georgia AG enters the chat, and a sad story out of Arizona State hockey.

Architects have been losing ground for years, and the industry keeps explaining it away with fee pressure, schedule pressure, and software. Beau [Last Name] has a less comfortable answer. He says the profession's own craft has declined, and that decline is exactly why architects keep getting moved further from the decisions that matter. His case runs like this. When drawings are incomplete and coordination is loose, somebody has to fill that gap, and lately that somebody is the builder. The builder absorbs the risk, then reasonably takes the authority that comes with it. Beau and Bryce get into what caused that slide, why architectural education has to become craft centric to reverse it, how AI either accelerates the decline or becomes the thing that reverses it depending entirely on how firms use it, and what he means by the "Super-Architect" and the three characteristics that define one. They also talk about the fracture inside the profession itself and why a national focus on craft may be the only thing that closes it. This one is for principals and firm leaders watching their scope shrink, for emerging professionals who were never actually taught to draw a building, and for anyone in AEC who wants the architect back at the table where the real decisions get made. About Beau  Beau Dromiack is Principal of [Firm Name], a practice focused on mission critical architecture delivered with quality, efficiency, and craft. He has integrated design expertise across Design-Bid-Build, CMaR, Design-Build, and Integrated Design delivery, and is a member of AIA, DBIA, SCUP, and NCARB. He holds a Master of Architecture from Arizona State University, serves on the ASU faculty teaching graduate architecture, and mentors emerging professionals. He also volunteers teaching design to design-build teams at Northern Arizona University's School of Construction and teaches STEM based architecture and engineering principles to elementary students, including teaching tools he developed himself. He is the author of The Craft Advantage: Reviving Craft in Architecture to Build a Better Environment and Improve Influence and Super-Architect: The Future of Architecture, which is also available as an audiobook on Audible, Apple, and Amazon in five countries. Beau has been married 34 years, has four adult kids, and spends his free time backpacking, raising chickens in pursuit of the perfect egg, and baking in pursuit of the perfect cookie. What We Cover Introduction and Beau's background as a principal, professor, and author What craft actually means in architecture, and what it does not mean How the decline in craft eroded professional respect The craft gap, and why builders are filling it How poor documentation shifts risk to the contractor and authority away from the architect Why architectural education needs to be craft centric The three characteristics of the "Super-Architect" Using AI proactively to build AI optimized practices and new business models Why a fractured profession is a fragile one What a national focus on craft could actually reunify Where to find Beau and his books, plus closing thoughts Key Takeaways Influence follows responsibility. Every gap in a drawing set that a builder has to close is a piece of authority the architect gave away, whether or not anyone named it that way. Craft is not perfectionism and it is not slowness. Beau's case is that higher craft is what makes speed and integration possible instead of dangerous. Craft cannot be recruited. It gets built through mentorship, documentation standards, and leaders who actually teach, which makes it a firm systems problem rather than a hiring problem. AI will either widen the craft gap or close it, and the deciding factor is whether a firm defines its use proactively or lets AI define the firm. A profession that can't agree on what it is worth is easy to move off the table. Shared standards are a growth strategy, not nostalgia.

In this Build Your Success podcast episode, your host Brian Brogen welcomes Beau Dromiack, principal at WMA Architects, professor at Arizona State University, and author, who shares how early experiences in a small architecture firm and on construction sites shaped his commitment to integrated design. Beau explains how analog-era craft, like lettering and line work made a direct connection to the work, how accelerated delivery and tools like AutoCAD reduced visible craftsmanship and mentoring, and how this contributed to architects' declining influence ideas explored in his book The Craft Advantage.He defines leadership as building high-performing teamsthrough trust, minimizing micromanagement, understanding collaborators' perceived risks, and taking responsibility for the team. The conversation also covers education versus occupation,the shift from vocational to theory-heavy architectural education, current moves to restore practical training, and Beau's teaching on professional “soft skills,” AI, and integration with construction.Guest Social: Beau Dromiack AIA, DBIA, NCARB, SCUP | LinkedInGuest Website: Dromiack InventionHost Email:brianb@buildcs.net Host LinkedIn: Brian Brogen, PMP

This week on the Ordinary Extraordinary Cemetery, Jennie and Dianne are joined by guest host Ryan Seidemann for a round of thought-provoking questions from his summer semester students at Arizona State University. Several of these questions are especially timely given the recent case of a cemetery being bulldozed unknowingly and heartbreakingly to descendants in Hickman County, Tennessee.  Why do companies push so hard to develop over cemeteries in urban environments when the legal and ethical ramifications seem to outweigh any benefit? How do cemeteries tied to marginalized communities keep getting erased or ignored — and what would true community control actually look like? How can communities and policymakers protect historic cemeteries when there are no living descendants and no funding for preservation? And should there be more robust legal requirements for documentation and preservation before any ground is broken near a cemetery?Join Jennie, Dianne, and Ryan as they discuss how to balance progress with respect for the dead and their descendants.Beyond the Grave 2026: Gothic Tragedies of the Gilded Age Tickets: https://www.eventbrite.com/e/beyond-the-grave-presents-gothic-tragedies-of-the-gilded-age-tickets-1997269261125?aff=oddtdtcreatorNeed an Ordinary Extraordinary Cemetery Podcast tee, hoodie or mug?

Every legal dispute comes down to a judgment call made with incomplete information — and wherever there's judgment, there are mental shortcuts quietly shaping the outcome. Host Dr. Laura Scherck Wittcoff sits down with Tricia Schafer, a full-time neutral who mediates and arbitrates cases nationwide, ahead of her TechTainment panel on implicit bias in tech-driven mediation. Together they unpack what implicit bias actually is (a normal function of the human brain, not a character flaw), why it matters most in entertainment and intellectual property disputes where there's rarely one objectively correct answer, and the practical, sometimes surprising strategies practitioners can use to design bias out of a process instead of pretending it isn't there. Tricia Schafer, Tricia Schafer Dispute Resolution PLLC: A full-time neutral and former litigator with 31 years of experience across all aspects of commercial controversies, Tricia is known for connecting people and concepts to outcomes that transcend the sum of their parts. She mediates and arbitrates cases nationwide, both privately and through the American Arbitration Association, handling commercial, real estate, health care, and consumer matters, and was recently approved as a mediator for the United States Postal Service. Based in Arizona, she also volunteers with the state court system in civil and probate matters and offers reduced-rate work to select Arizona nonprofits. She first attended TechTainment in 2024 at a friend's suggestion — arriving knowing exactly one person and leaving with roughly two dozen new friends — and has been a loyal follower since. At this year's conference, she co-presents on implicit bias with longtime friend and colleague Maria Crimi Speth, a partner at Jaburg Wilk in Phoenix and a career intellectual property litigator. What is TechTainment? TechTainment is an annual, one-day conference produced by LAIPLA, now held in partnership with the Sandra Day O'Connor College of Law at Arizona State University (ASU) at ASU's California Center in downtown Los Angeles. The conference brings together leaders in technology, entertainment, business, academia, and law to discuss the issues reshaping every industry, long before those issues become mainstream news. This year's conference: Friday, October 16, 2026, at ASU's California Center in downtown Los Angeles Tricia's panel: "Implicit Bias in Dispute Resolution and Mediation", co-presented with Maria Crimi Speth of Jaburg Wilk What implicit bias actually is: Implicit bias is not prejudice or intentional discrimination. It's a mental shortcut the brain uses to make decisions under incomplete information, limited time, or uncertainty — a normal part of being human, not a character flaw. Tricia's example makes it concrete: a Mercedes pulls into your driveway versus a beat-up pickup truck, and you've formed a judgment about the driver before you've seen them. It doesn't matter until you have to help that person resolve something that matters in their life. Why "neutral" is a noun: Tricia explains that "Neutral" is the catch-all for someone who serves as both mediator and arbitrator — a private-pay, secure way to resolve disputes outside of court. She also walks through the tradeoffs of arbitration: it's faster, it's private, it never becomes public record, and critically, you get to choose your decision-maker. File in court and you may draw a judge who spent 20 years in family law and just moved to the civil bench. Through the American Arbitration Association or another provider, you can ask for an environmental lawyer, an engineer, or a water lawyer. The cost: you pay your neutral's hourly rate, and there is almost no right to appeal. Positions versus interests, and the last orange in the house: Tricia walks through the foundational mediation exercise: two kids fighting over the last orange, and a parent's instinct to cut it in half. The better move is to ask each child why they want it — one is hungry, the other needs it for a science project — and suddenly there's a solution that makes both of them happy. As she puts it, a position is what you say you want and an interest is why you want it. Do you really want the money, or do you want the security of knowing you can keep the house? The related insight: "No" is never permanent. "No simply means I'm not going to change my position based upon the available information that I have right now." Designing bias out of the process: Tricia describes wanting software that would strip law firm letterhead off position statements before she reads them, and assign parties fake names, so she isn't forming judgments about counsel or making assumptions from the ethnicity of a surname — the same logic behind employers removing photos from resumes. She also shares a technique she uses now: she dumbs the fact pattern down, renames everyone, and spends half an hour working through the dynamic with an AI assistant. Mr. Jones and Mr. Smith fighting over a commercial building becomes Bob and Larry fighting over a pickup truck. The AI has no idea who anyone is, which is exactly the point. Where implicit bias shows up in entertainment and IP: Assumptions about how long creative work should take a human, and whether AI could do it faster. Assumptions about what a market wants and will pay for, made without consulting anyone who lives and works in that market. Confirmation bias in data used to argue for one direction over another. And the structural disadvantage facing independent creators, who often lack the resources to register, protect, or aggressively enforce their intellectual property — so their disputes get read as less significant. Tricia names the persistent disconnect between the rooms where decisions get made and the people actually watching and streaming the content. Dispute resolution is dispute prevention: One of the episode's most quotable lines, and the practical center of Tricia's advice. It's not if a dispute arises, it's when. Mediation clauses are now common in contracts — and, Tricia notes, most people don't realize those clauses are negotiable in any contract involving personal services or securing talent. "We'll mediate before we arbitrate before we litigate" means very little on its own. For how many days? What kind of mediator — an entertainment lawyer at $1,000 an hour, or a court-appointed one? In person or on Zoom? In good faith, and what does good faith mean? She points listeners to the sample clause language published by the major providers, including the AAA's ClauseBuilder tool, and notes you can even name the specific mediators you'd accept. Strategies for creators and practitioners without deep pockets: For anyone younger, newer, or under-resourced walking into a negotiation: go in without defensiveness, but look in the mirror first and ask what the other side is likely to assume about you — then stay ahead of it. On the other side of the table, for the corporations and the streamers: you know statistically what your audience does, but you don't know what's in their heads or why they're watching what they're watching. Follow the data, and also build a team of decision-makers with genuinely different perspectives. Normalizing bias instead of denying it: Tricia's hope for what people take away from her session: bias is not bad. Bias is not negative. She'd like to see the same shift the culture has already made around therapy and health tracking — from something you'd never mention to something you say out loud. Her image of what that looks like in practice: a mediator who can say "I feel like I'm getting a little biased from this room, I need to take a five-minute break." Laura's response: when you pretend it doesn't exist, it creeps in anyway.

Over the last century, tens of millions of people quit Eastern Europe for the United States. The push-pull factors were many—war, poverty, instability, persecution at home and opportunity, refuge, and liberty abroad. But manna didn't simply fall from the sky in America. Immigrants from Eastern Europe confronted many of the same challenges migrants do everywhere—exploitation, hardship, and discrimination.Thresholds is a REEES podcast series that will grapple with these histories through interviews with scholars and immigrants' personal profiles. What pushed them to leave? What did they discover when they arrived? How did they change and be changed by American society? What opportunities and challenges did they face to become “American”? And what can we learn about immigration today?Guest:Claudia Sadowski-Smith is Professor of English at Arizona State University. She is the author of The New Immigrant Whiteness: Race, Neoliberalism, and Post-Soviet Migration to the United States published by NYU Press. Hosted on Acast.

For more than a decade, one conference has been getting ahead of the headlines instead of chasing them. Host Dr. Laura Scherck Wittcoff sits down with Mark Treitel, founder of TechTainment, and Konrad Trope, the conference's co-chair, ahead of this year's event to talk about how a niche gathering on technology, entertainment, and the law grew into one of the country's premier forums for examining AI's legal, ethical, and business impact, and why staying "gutsy" enough to tackle hard conversations before they go mainstream is the whole point. Guests Mark Treitel, Founder, TechTainment A senior intellectual property and technology litigator with Quinn Emanuel, Mark recognized 12 years ago that no conference was seriously addressing the intersection of technology, entertainment, and the law. Rather than wait for someone else to fill that gap, he created TechTainment under the auspices of the Los Angeles Intellectual Property Law Association (LAIPLA). What began as a small gathering of a handful of speakers has grown into a full-day conference featuring more than 30 speakers and nearly 200 attendees from across the country. Konrad Trope, Managing Shareholder, Trope and Trope Konrad comes from a family of eight attorneys whose legal careers date back to 1954, when his father, Eugene Trope, and his uncle co-founded the law firm Trope and Trope. Over the following 75 years, the firm has represented some of Hollywood's most illustrious names, including Cary Grant, Alan Ladd, Nicole Kidman, and Nick Cassavetes. Konrad has focused his own practice on entertainment and intellectual property litigation for the past 40 years. He was introduced to Mark and TechTainment in September 2022 after chairing a panel on ethics in the age of digital media at the seventh annual conference, and became co-chair in January 2023, since carving out a niche recruiting panelists and keynote speakers who are defining the boundaries of artificial intelligence. What is TechTainment? TechTainment is an annual, one-day conference produced by LAIPLA, now held in partnership with the Sandra Day O'Connor College of Law at Arizona State University (ASU) at ASU's California Center in downtown Los Angeles. The conference brings together leaders in technology, entertainment, business, academia, and law to discuss the issues reshaping every industry, long before those issues become mainstream news. This year's conference: Friday, October 16, 2026, at ASU's California Center in downtown Los Angeles Keynote: David Alpert, CEO and co-founder of Skybound Entertainment, known for transforming intellectual property like Invincible into television, film, games, and tabletop products Panels include: recent developments in AI and entertainment law; recent developments in IP and entertainment law; how AI is changing greenlighting decisions in film and TV (moderated by Konrad, featuring Craig Wagner of Paradigm Talent Agency); managing AI data and addressing bias in prompt design (featuring speakers from Tokyo Broadcasting System, Microsoft, Lexus, DLA Piper, Amazon, and Oracle); algorithms and arbitrators, on implicit bias in tech-driven mediation (featuring Tricia Schaefer and Mike Murray of Vertex); a civility and professionalism panel featuring Dr. Wittcoff, the dean of Washington University School of Law, and a leading Southern California legal ethics expert; and a secret panel still being finalized at the time of recording Panelist Tracy Freed has spoken at all 12 years of the conference Key Topics Covered A new civility requirement for California attorneys Beginning April 1, 2026, every California attorney must annually affirm a civility oath, pledging to conduct themselves with dignity, courtesy, and integrity, alongside new required training on civility and mental health awareness. Mark and Konrad discuss why professionalism and ethical conduct matter more than ever as AI transforms how lawyers practice, and why the legal profession, historically slow to prioritize wellbeing, is finally catching up. Clients "playing lawyer" with ChatGPT Mark shares how attorneys across the profession are now spending more time managing clients who arrive already convinced they've diagnosed their own legal issue using AI tools, requiring lawyers to sort fact from AI-generated assumption before real work can begin. His takeaway: these are powerful tools, but only tools, and lawyers still need the expertise to use them ethically and effectively. The pushback against "AI slop" Mark points to a growing cultural backlash against AI-generated content in entertainment, and a corresponding renaissance of audiences seeking out simple, well-told, human stories, citing the independent film Obsession and anticipation for Christopher Nolan's The Odyssey as evidence people still want real actors and real storytelling. Reading, learning, and the future of legal education Both guests raise concerns about AI's effect on critical thinking, particularly in law schools, where the traditional grind of close reading has historically been what makes lawyers effective. Mark argues bluntly that if students lose the ability to read and analyze because AI is doing it for them, the consequences extend well beyond the legal profession. The bigger picture: AI, dystopia, and the future of work The conversation turns to bigger-picture anxieties around AI, from military robotics to questions about what a society looks like if AI eliminates the need to work, framing these as exactly the kind of uncomfortable, ahead-of-the-curve conversations TechTainment exists to have. A shared love of things "AI can't replace" In a lighter moment, Mark reflects on losing an entire digital music collection to digital rights management, and his frustration with ads creeping into the modern moviegoing experience, both examples of technology's tradeoffs even in entertainment he loves. Why they're still doing this after 12 years Mark closes by reflecting on the sheer number of hours he and Konrad have poured into the conference over more than a decade, admitting there were plenty of moments he could have walked away for more billable hours or family time. His answer for why he hasn't: a genuine, long-term commitment to the vision, one he hopes people are still gathering around in 10 or 20 years.

Steve thinks Indiana is too low and the Hoosiers can do it again, and there also might be some former champs who could make noise in 2026 as well in the Big Ten. Week 1 isn't great but Week 2 is loaded, and the guys give the games they're looking forward to most just a couple weeks out. Optimism is easy to come by this time of year… is that what makes August great? SVP brings up the compelling case of why August might be one of the better months of the year. Plus, the Orioles are in the mix, Ty Simpson looked good in his debut, Cashmere Keith displayed phenomenal composure and SVP shares more insight into his progress on CFB 27. Finally, the difficulty approaching Arizona State sorority girls, various stories on why SVP was NOT a model student, a jellyfish update, thoughts on the Jayden Daniels situation, Super Bowl predictions, and Rest In Peace Skip Bertman. | SVPod Approx.

Send us Fan MailTodd is getting ready to start his 27th year teaching as a California Personal Finance educator. Growing up in a lower middle class family, he ended up marrying his college sweetheart from Arizona State University. As a teen, his wife spent some time being homeless. Together, they decided they would NEVER live the way they grew up and wanted more for themselves. Teaching has taken Todd from AZ to TX and now California. Todd's took some risks in life and they have paid off, for the most part. He believes his job as a teacher enables him to take risks that others cannot because he has the pension and so much time off to study deals and make moves. Be a guest on the show:https://www.financiallyindependentteachers.com/contact-8Check out our website:https://www.financiallyindependentteachers.com/Sign up for FIT coaching:https://www.financiallyindependentteachers.com/services-4

This week on Brands of the Week, Donny Deutsch and Lou Pellegrino break down the brands, trends, and cultural shifts shaping the marketplace right now — from functional beverages to nostalgia economics. Topics include: the explosive rise of mood drinks and non-alcoholic, THC-free botanical beverages; why 50-year-old song catalogs (Queen, Springsteen, Dylan) are outselling contemporary music as investment assets; the return of communal live TV watching through sports and events like the World Cup and Love Island; Anthony Bourdain's posthumous resurgence in food and travel culture ahead of the new biopic "Tony"; luxury car buyers trading down to mainstream brands as tech gaps close; Arizona State's new bachelor's degree in content creation and influencer marketing; Starbucks' banana bread latte replacing pumpkin spice as its next big seasonal flavor; the decline of the bathtub in modern home renovation; United Airlines' frequent flyer program being worth more than the airline itself; the death of paper checks in the age of Venmo and Zelle; and the rise of JOMO (the joy of missing out) culture. Plus, ICE approval ratings drop among independents, and why America is having fewer twins.

We start with a little baseball nostalgia and somehow ends with us debating whether a man would trade a live rattlesnake for chicken tenders—which, honestly, is a pretty accurate summary of the intellectual journey you've signed up for with this funny podcast.The crew kicks things off after learning Daryl Strawberry was spotted in the stands shaking hands with an old teammate, which naturally gets everybody talking baseball, Strawberry's career, and his St. Louis-area connection. From there, we smoothly transition—as only a professional broadcasting operation like ours can—into one of the most stressful decisions a parent can make: where the heck is your kid going to college?Rizz is getting ready to hit the road for Fayetteville and is making a strong sales pitch for the University of Arkansas. Moon brings his own college-tour experience to the table, including some serious love for Tuscaloosa and the University of Alabama campus. Rafe weighs in on Fayetteville, Madison, Laramie and more as the guys break down a ranking of the best college towns in America.Ann Arbor takes the top spot, but that doesn't stop the crew from debating Arizona State, Virginia, Florida, Florida State, Wisconsin, Berkeley, Purdue, Wyoming and Illinois. There are beautiful campuses, brutal winters, business schools, Walmart money and the eternal parental dream of convincing your kid that the school YOU like is obviously the school THEY should like. Parenting!Then we arrive in Florida.And things immediately get stupid.It's time for Fake News or Florida, the game where contestants have to decide whether a ridiculous headline actually happened in Florida or whether the show made it up. The problem is that writing fake Florida headlines is nearly impossible because actual Florida keeps producing material that sounds like it was written by three raccoons sharing a laptop.Was a woman dressed as a hot dog arrested after covering a neighbor's car in toilet paper? Did police arrest Chuck E. Cheese while he was still in costume? Did someone throw an alligator through a drive-thru window? Did a guy in a Batman onesie detain a burglary suspect? Could a 300-pound feral hog interrupt somebody doing a crossword puzzle? And, most importantly, how much faith should anyone place in Moon as a lifeline?The answers become increasingly concerning.We also encounter a runaway kangaroo, a rainbow-painted manatee statue, a man hiding a gun under silicone breasts, a burglar with a live ferret stuffed down his pants, hundreds of mysteriously delivered shower curtains and the possibility of a rattlesnake-for-chicken-tenders barter economy.Moon spends much of the game carefully analyzing every detail, constructing thoughtful arguments and then discovering that Florida does not recognize the laws of logic. It's like watching Sherlock Holmes investigate a gas-station parking lot at 2 a.m.This funny podcast packs baseball talk, college-town arguments, listener chaos, bizarre headlines, St. Louis humor and enough Florida news to make you wonder whether the state should simply start issuing press releases titled, “You're Not Going To Believe This One Either.”It's another episode of The Rizzuto Show where celebrity and sports talk collide with weird news, sarcastic humor and the kind of daily comedy that probably shouldn't count as educational—but technically you will learn several things.Mostly about ferrets.Come for Daryl Strawberry and the college debate. Stay for the moment everyone has to seriously consider whether someone tried to exchange a live rattlesnake for chicken tenders.That's the kind of journalism this funny podcast is brave enough to tackle.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, Howard Farran sits down with Dr. Kevin Lassiter, an Arizona native and proud Army veteran who earned his bachelor's degree from Arizona State University and his Doctor of Dental Medicine from Midwestern University College of Dental Medicine. Dr. Lassiter spent 12 years serving as a dentist in the U.S. Army, completing his specialty training through the United States Army Prosthodontic Program, and today provides relationship-centered dentistry that blends science and artistry to create healthy, natural-looking, long-lasting smiles. The conversation traces Dr. Lassiter's path from a 19-year-old applying to dental school — admittedly naive in those early interviews — through his entry into the Army via officer basic training and an AEGD program, to years of service that included time living in Germany. He shares an honest look at the good, the bad, and the ugly of Army dentistry, what drew him to prosthodontics, and the experience of caring for veterans and soldiers during his residency. The episode closes on his transition into civilian private practice and the journey from associate to ownership, offering a grounded perspective for anyone weighing a similar route into military or specialty dentistry.   Episode #1726 : Dentistry Uncensored with Howard Farran, Howard sits down with Dr. Kevin Lassiter — Arizona native, proud Army veteran, and prosthodontist who spent 12 years serving as a dentist in the U.S. Army before transitioning to private practice. From applying to dental school at 19, to Army life and training in Germany, to finding his passion in prosthodontics and making the leap from associate to owner — this is a candid, inspiring look at one dentist's unconventional path.

Eating Free at Nude Dining Steakhouse is News AF – August 11, 2026 Also available on YouTube. News AF is back with Rob Cesternino, Tyson Apostol, and Danny Bryson as they break down the most offbeat, actual-factual headlines of the week. From stories about nude steakhouses in Florida to viral falls caught on camera, the crew tackles wild news events and the odd ways people are making headlines. They share personal stories of awkward tumbles, debate the weirdest new sports, and dig into the logic (or lack thereof) of dining in the buff. This episode covers a range of bizarre and laugh-out-loud news items. The conversation opens with personal injury tales, sprained ankles by creeks, viral dance fails, and the enduring pain (and embarrassment) of bad landings. The hosts dissect the new “Slippery Stairs” competition, a slapstick sport all about chaotic wipeouts. They move on to discuss a steakhouse offering a clothing-optional dinner experience, complete with high-priced menus, confusing wordplay, and skepticism about who actually wants to eat a porterhouse without pants. Airline stories abound, too: a canceled flight thanks to a stubborn kid refusing to buckle up and a child discovered asleep and forgotten on a school bus. In the “neighbor news” segment, Danny updates everyone on his late-night mowing neighbor and the technology arms race that's making midnight yard work quieter than ever. Later, the group discusses a man driven to criminal mischief by the drone of a neighbor's pond pump, and a real-life vampire wannabe arrested for drinking lamb's blood and leaving animal remains at churches. Closing out, they debate the value of a new influencer degree at Arizona State and whether practical trades or viral fame make for smarter careers. Tyson details his ankle injury and the comedic fallout with his kids Dissection of “Slippery Stairs” and why physical wipeouts are so endlessly watchable Deep dive into the rules, pricing, and appeal (or lack thereof) of a nude steakhouse Flight drama: Should a child's meltdown be enough to ground an entire plane? Recap of weird neighbor behavior and technology’s role in neighborhood disputes Bizarre cases of obsession: from fish-killing revenge to real-life vampire rituals in the UK Pros and cons of launching a career as a professional influencer versus learning a skilled trade This episode lays out a carnival of strange stories and sharp commentary—are nude dining nights and influencer degrees a sign of the times, or just passing fads? Find out where laughter, confusion, and a dash of skepticism meet by listening to the full episode for all the details and plenty of takes you won't hear anywhere else. 00:00 Ankle Injuries and Falling Mishaps 06:32 Tyson Discovers Slippery Stairs 11:04 Nude Steakhouse Sparks Debate 16:39 Air Travel Disrupted by Child 23:34 Boy Left Alone on Bus 33:17 Neighbor Dispute Over Pump Noise 39:08 Netflix Billboard Man Stunt Discussed 43:21 Wildfire Betting Markets Critiqued 47:05 ASU Launches Influencer Degree 54:12 HVAC Influencers and Viral Content 01:01:05 AI Generates Outrageous Podcast Thumbnail To order Rob’s book, The Tribe and I Have Spoken, visit www.robhasabook.com Be sure to subscribe to our new YouTube channel!

Texas Tech enters 2026 as the clear favorite to control the new Big 12, but the quarterback change from the original Brendan Sorsby plan to Will Hammond creates one major question for an otherwise loaded roster.Gary breaks down all 16 Big 12 teams, beginning with a championship tier featuring Texas Tech, BYU, Utah and Kansas State. BYU brings the safest combination of quarterback stability, offensive-line experience and defensive maturity. Utah returns explosive quarterback Devon Dampier but must replace its coaching leadership and entire starting offensive line. Kansas State may own the conference's cleanest path under new head coach Collin Klein.The dark-horse discussion includes Houston, Arizona, TCU and a completely rebuilt Oklahoma State program that imported Eric Morris, Drew Mestemaker and much of North Texas' explosive offense. The remaining tiers cover UCF's quarterback upgrade, DJ Lagway's arrival at Baylor, Arizona State's massive personnel losses, Iowa State's teardown and Colorado's latest roster reset.The episode also examines the Big 12's dramatically uneven schedules, the conference's top quarterbacks and units, championship odds, win totals and potential regression candidates.Final picks include Texas Tech over BYU in the Big 12 Championship, Kansas State as the best title value, Oklahoma State as the favorite long shot, Kansas State 7.5 wins and Cincinnati 5.5.

The White House's Office of Science and Technology Policy recently released "Science: A New Golden Age", a sweeping report that calls for a fundamental reimagining of how the United States funds and conducts science. Explicitly modeled on Vannevar Bush's landmark 1945 report "Science, the Endless Frontier," it challenges the traditional linear model of innovation, advocates for empowering individual scientists over institutions, proposes faster grants with less bureaucracy, and envisions a greater role for AI in the scientific process. But this ambitious vision arrives in a deeply contradictory context: the same administration has proposed slashing science agency budgets, cutting new NSF funding awards by over 50%, and imposing new bureaucratic controls on scientific grants. Casey Dreier is joined by Zach Pirtle, deputy director of the Consortium for Science, Policy and Outcomes at Arizona State University, and the Planetary Society's Chief of Advocacy Jack Kiraly to unpack the report's proposals, tensions, and implications.

For most of the world, the advent of middle age does not make depression, loneliness, and memory issues more of a problem than earlier in life. In some countries, things actually get better. The only nation on earth where it all gets worse is right here in the USA. Arizona State University psychologist Frank Infurna has been researching this topic extensively and explains the uniquely American societal forces that are contributing to us being generally more miserable. It's a lot of things beyond an individuals' control: unstable job market, expensive health insurance tied to those unstable jobs, out of control housing and childcare costs, as well as current middle-agers being part of a sandwich generation. They often have to manage and fund expensive and complex eldercare for their parents while also helping their children make their way in a challenging world. Frank offers thoughts on what we can and cannot do about all this. We also talk with musician Mike Doughty. Last time he was on, he was fresh out of in-patient psychiatric care and hitting the road with his once highly estranged band Soul Coughing. We find out how he's doing now, how he made amends with his audience, and why an unplugged satellite dish matters so much.
