M94 is wrapping up in Star Trek Fleet Command, so tonight we take a hard look at what actually worked, what still needs fixing, and whether Scopely is beginning to deliver on its promised culture change. We cover the return of Battle Pass choice, Alliance Tournament compensation, communication improvements, M95 Planetary Bases, ongoing bugs, officer sourcing, G7 progression, and what the community wants to see carried forward into future arcs. Then we dive deep into the M94 artifact choices. Should you take Kirk's Spectacles or Benny Russell's Typewriter? Are Trelane's Medals the obvious free-to-play choice for players entering the Academy loop? We break down the options by progression level before opening the floor to the community for their Battle Pass reviews. Finally, we look at Star Trek's 60th Anniversary “Join the Fleet” campaign, where one fan can become a permanent STFC NPC and eight more can become IRL STFC officers. Plus, Maia makes a dangerously memorable prediction about how long it might take to truly fix STFC.

What happens when you have a clear artistic vision for a new circus school show, but the funding catalog expires, the gatekeepers want something “easy to book,” and the words you use accidentally make it sound like a museum? Captain Frodo sits down with Jay Gilligan to unpack the very real behind-the-scenes story of making Artifact, a contemporary circus and juggling performance built around historical objects, natural history vibes, and the strange power of letting kids experience “real art” in a school gym or library.We talk through why the Swedish school show market matters, how public cultural funding shapes what gets made, and why circus performers can feel both grateful and trapped by the system. Jay breaks down his company's signature structure of short vignettes and strong visual images, the recurring audience comment “you didn't do anything,” and the constant challenge of translating an abstract live experience into a concrete pitch that producers and teachers can instantly understand.Then the creation story turns messy in the best way: a bold interactive idea gets rejected on semantics, meetings slowly erode the plan, budget gets spent early, and the team has to commit anyway. The payoff is a premiere that validates the original instinct, plus a practical tool you can steal for your own creative work: gate one (presenters and administrators), gate two (the audience), and gate three (the performer's need to enjoy the show).

Woody Allen's "Annie Hall" remains THE classic romantic-comedy, influencing every other film which came after. This is in part because it seems to depict the real-life romance of Diane Keaton and Woody Allen, while inventing many cinematic techniques which are now standard. But is it Allen's best film? In ArtiFact 77, the world's leading Woody Allen critic, Alex Sheremet, is joined by actresses Christina Behkne and Jacklyn Collier to review and analyze what makes "Annie Hall" an enduring work of art.

Woody Allen's "Husbands and Wives" (1992) remains one of his harshest and darkest films. Not only does it examine two failing marriages, but also fresh romances which will end in yet more failed marriages. Its use of black humor, villains who say "correct" things, and unexpected character arcs give it an arresting quality which takes fans by surprise. The world's leading Woody Allen critic, Alex Sheremet (author of "Woody Allen: Reel to Real"), offers an in-depth analysis of "Husbands and Wives" (1992) alongside actress Christina Behnke.

Jinwoo said.Ko: 민호는 눈물을 글썽이며 진우를 껴안았다.En: With tears in his eyes, Minho hugged Jinwoo.Ko: 각종 전통과 첨단 장치 속에서 존재했던 혼란은 해결되었다.En: The chaos amidst the various traditions and cutting-edge devices was resolved.Ko: 상인은 시장 당국에 의해 불려갔다.En: The vendor was summoned by the market authorities.Ko: 진우는 이 경험을 통해 자신의 탐정 능력에 대한 자신감을 얻었다. 그리고 진정한 탐정이 되어 세계를 탐구하겠다는 결심을 더욱 굳혔다.En: Through this experience, Jinwoo gained confidence in his detective abilities and became more determined to become a true detective to explore the world.Ko: 명동 시장은 여전히 소란스럽고 화려했지만, 그날의 미스터리는 이미 그 안에서 풀린 전설이 되었다.En: Although Myeongdong Market remained noisy and vibrant, the mystery of that day had already become a legend solved within it.

On March 10, 1876, Alexander Graham Bell spoke nine momentous words: "Mr. Watson, come here. I need to see you." It was hardly an earthshaking statement, except for one fact. Bell had spoken the first words ever communicated by telephone. It wasn't much. Thomas Watson, Bell's assistant, was only in the next room. But Bell immediately saw the exciting possibilities. He began working right away to get his invention noticed by the public. The telephone was awarded a medal at the 1876 Centennial Exposition in Philadelphia. Later that year, at an exhibition in Salem, Massachusetts, Bell spoke with Watson, who was in Boston.

In the last episode, we studied the findings from a variety of tests that were done on the Shroud of Turin to determine its authenticity. Now today, we challenge it against the most important source, the Word of God. If it does not line up with the Bible, then we know it can not be accurate. And it would appear upon first look of the accounts of the burial of Jesus that there is indeed an error between the four Gospels. But let's see what the original language has to say. Tune in to find out if there is indeed an error or if the evidence still stands that this could just possibly be the authentic burial cloth of Jesus. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------DONATE: https://evidence4faith.org/give/WEBSITE: https://evidence4faith.org/NEWSLETTER: http://eepurl.com/hpazV5BOOKINGS: https://evidence4faith.org/bookings/CONTACT: Evidence 4 Faith, 349 Knights Ave Kewaskum WI 53040 , info@evidence4faith.orgMy goal is that their hearts, having been knit together in love, may be encouraged, and that they may have all the riches that assurance brings in their understanding of the knowledge of the mystery of God, namely, Christ, in whom are hidden all the treasures of wisdom and knowledge. - Colossians 2:2-3CREDITS: Developed & Hosted by Michael Lane.

In last week's episode, we introduced what is the most studied artifact of all time – the Shroud of Turin, the supposed burial cloth of Jesus. Today we dive into a deep investigation to determine whether this linen is indeed authentic, or if it is simply a beautiful piece of medieval artwork as some believe. Michael will investigate by using eight different ways that this artifact has been scientifically tested. What will the evidence show? Tune in to see if we can solve this intriguing mystery behind the Shroud of Turin. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------DONATE: https://evidence4faith.org/give/WEBSITE: https://evidence4faith.org/NEWSLETTER: http://eepurl.com/hpazV5BOOKINGS: https://evidence4faith.org/bookings/CONTACT: Evidence 4 Faith, 349 Knights Ave Kewaskum WI 53040 , info@evidence4faith.orgMy goal is that their hearts, having been knit together in love, may be encouraged, and that they may have all the riches that assurance brings in their understanding of the knowledge of the mystery of God, namely, Christ, in whom are hidden all the treasures of wisdom and knowledge. - Colossians 2:2-3CREDITS: Developed & Hosted by Michael Lane.

The Shroud of Turin – the most intensively studied artifact of all time. This ancient linen cloth depicts the image of a man who we can visibly see was beaten, bore a crown of thorns, scourged, stabbed, and clearly crucified Roman style. Could this have possibly been the burial cloth of Jesus? Michael was skeptical and doubted the authenticity for years, but has further studying of the artifact changed his mind? Tune in as we study the final artifact in this series in three-part episodes. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------DONATE: https://evidence4faith.org/give/WEBSITE: https://evidence4faith.org/NEWSLETTER: http://eepurl.com/hpazV5BOOKINGS: https://evidence4faith.org/bookings/CONTACT: Evidence 4 Faith, 349 Knights Ave Kewaskum WI 53040 , info@evidence4faith.orgMy goal is that their hearts, having been knit together in love, may be encouraged, and that they may have all the riches that assurance brings in their understanding of the knowledge of the mystery of God, namely, Christ, in whom are hidden all the treasures of wisdom and knowledge. - Colossians 2:2-3CREDITS: Developed & Hosted by Michael Lane.

Hugh Mo is the co-founder of Artifact New York, a fashion business renting historical designer fashion pieces to photo shoots, movies and celebrities, including many musicians. With operations situated in NYC and Los Angeles, they are the go-to house for this kind of service as also featured in their early days in none other than Vogue.I met Hugh through the watch scene in New York, and he's someone with whom I've exchanged many a DM's whether it be about watches, travel, and certainly restaurants. I guess this conversation is best summarized as being more along the lines of a peek into our dialogue. A long-form DM that's on the record, if you will.Hugh has owned (and owns) some of my favorite watches on the planet, and I'm always stoked to chat fashion with someone who really knows their stuff. Hugh's knowledge of fashion is funny for me as someone 10+ years his senior since he now knows more about these older pieces than I do, and I was reading about them in GQ & Esquire when he was still in grade school.A man of taste, and one hell of a growing business, please enjoy my conversation with Hugh Mo.

In Joshua 11, it is recorded that Joshua and the Israelites destroyed the city of Hazor, burning it to the ground. And according to the Law of Moses, they would have destroyed and burned all the pagan idols, not leaving one untouched. Now, the site of the ancient city has been excavated, and their findings have been remarkable. Amongst the old remains they found idols that had been smashed and clearly burned. It appears this lines up with what is written in the Bible.

The Babylonian King Nebuchadnezzar was thought to have been a myth for centuries due to his outstanding accomplishments. No one believed that this could be one man. And up until the 1800s, no historical artifacts supporting the life of this king existed. But then a clay tablet was discovered, and the inscription on it proved remarkable. What was written on this tablet, and does it support what the Bible states about this man from long ago?

According to archaeologists and many Bible scholars, one of the most significant archaeological discoveries of the past 50 years was made on the western shore of the Sea of Galilee at the site called Magdala, the hometown of Mary Magdalene. During a dig, they unearthed a 1st century synagogue and at the center was this massive stone with intricate carvings engraved into it. Some of the carvings on the stone support what the Bible says about there being a temple in Jerusalem at the time of Christ. Could this also be the same synagogue where Jesus visited and taught?

The word "ritual" is archaeology's favorite answer for everything it can't explain. It sounds like knowledge. It fills the museum placard. But it's actually an admission of total ignorance dressed in academic language. What if the things we've filed away as symbolic are actually technologies operating on principles we've abandoned or never discovered? What if the filing system itself is the problem?Call in live during the show: 702-857-6939 Full archive of 1,100+ episodes: troubledminds.org

Many people have heard of King David, King Solomon, and even King Hezekiah, but the king who claims the title of having the longest reign, is unfamiliar to most. Today's artifact is a bulla with the name Manasseh inscribed on it. The story of this king is recorded in 2 Kings and 2 Chronicles. So, does this bulla support the biblical account? And why is there also an Egyptian symbol on the seal? Tune in to see if this is yet another artifact that has been discovered that supports the accuracy of the Bible.-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------DONATE: https://evidence4faith.org/give/WEBSITE: https://evidence4faith.org/NEWSLETTER: http://eepurl.com/hpazV5BOOKINGS: https://evidence4faith.org/bookings/CONTACT: Evidence 4 Faith, 349 Knights Ave Kewaskum WI 53040 , info@evidence4faith.orgMy goal is that their hearts, having been knit together in love, may be encouraged, and that they may have all the riches that assurance brings in their understanding of the knowledge of the mystery of God, namely, Christ, in whom are hidden all the treasures of wisdom and knowledge. - Colossians 2:2-3CREDITS: Developed & Hosted by Michael Lane.

Today's artifact is actually a location and Michael's favorite place to visit in Jerusalem due to its significance. Where was the exact place that Jesus was questioned by the Sanhedrin and denied by Peter the night before His crucifixion? Some believe it was Caiphas's House at the Church of St. Peter. However, that site does not fit the time, biblical account, nor the correct location. Perhaps it was instead the Palatial Mansion that was excavated in the late 1900's near the Temple Mount?

Our artifact for today is another bulla that was discovered in 2019 at a dig in Jerusalem and inscribed on it is the name Nathan-Melech. This person was only mentioned once in the Bible, but according to the Scriptures, he was a royal official of King Josiah, son of the evil King Amon.

In the 1970s, two identical clay seal impressions appeared on the antiquities market, both reading: “Belonging to Berechiahu, son of Neriah, the Scribe”—or in modern terms, Baruch. According to the Bible, Baruch was the scribe and companion of the prophet Jeremiah, faithfully writing down his words.

What happens when AI starts doing the audit work itself? Blake and David dig into KPMG's prediction that routine audit testing could soon happen with almost no human auditors directly involved. They also cover the IRS's unfinished AI projects, the end of Direct File, new tax-on-tips rules, and why firms investing more in marketing are growing faster. Press play to hear what these shifts could mean for accountants, firms, and clients.Sponsors Cloud Accountant Staffing - http://accountingpodcast.promo/casOnPay - http://accountingpodcast.promo/onpayWurthy - http://accountingpodcast.promo/wurthyChapters(00:00) - Audits Without Humans (00:22) - Tax Day Show Kickoff (02:30) - When Tax Day Hit Post Office (04:34) - E Filing Ends The Party (05:23) - This Week Top Stories (05:58) - Warehouse Fire Accounting Impact (08:52) - Compliance Time Cost (11:04) - No Tax On Tips Rules (13:44) - IRS AI Projects Stall (14:43) - Direct File Cost Debate (17:30) - Xero Os Buzzword Critique (20:32) - Can Ai Replace QuickBooks (21:23) - Reddit Claude Accounting System (22:45) - Firms Lose Stack Control (23:27) - AI Makes More Cleanup (23:58) - Tidwell Spreadsheet Accounting (25:13) - Tax Preparer Fraud Cases (27:17) - Big Four Audit Automation (30:58) - EY Office Mandate and Careers (34:01) - Firm Growth Marketing and AI (36:19) - Audit Lawsuits and Penalties (40:19) - Juno AI Tax Prep Funding (42:27) - Workers Skipping AI Review (44:36) - Agentic Frameworks and Omni (47:19) - Wrap Up and Free CPE  Show NotesHow Tax Day Turned Into Party Night at the Post Officehttps://www.history.com/articles/tax-day-partiesAmericans to Spend 11.6 Billion Hours Completing Federal Compliance Formshttps://www.cpapracticeadvisor.com/2026/03/16/americans-to-spend-11-6-billion-hours-completing-federal-compliance-forms/179866/IRS Publishes List of Jobs That Qualify for 'No Tax on Tips' Provisionhttps://www.cnbc.com/2026/04/13/irs-tax-on-tips-big-beautiful-bill.htmlIRS AI Projects Fall by the Wayside Due to Staff Cutshttps://www.accountingtoday.com/news/irs-ai-projects-fall-by-the-wayside-due-to-staff-cutsIRS Inflated Direct File Costs by $45 Million in 2025https://www.cpapracticeadvisor.com/2026/03/25/irs-inflated-direct-file-costs-by-45-million-in-2025/180237/Xero OS: Your Operating System for the Future of Autonomous Financehttps://blog.xero.com/news-events/xero-os-ai-native-operating-system/Tidwell — MCP Accounting Server (Reddit reference)https://www.tidwell.comWarehouse Worker Charged in $500M Arson Attack at Kimberly-Clark Distribution Centerhttps://abc7.com/post/employee-arrested-arson-kimberly-clark-distribition-center-destroyed-massive-fire-ontario/18851549/New Jersey Tax Preparer Sentenced in Largest COVID-19 Tax Relief Fraud Casehttps://www.justice.gov/usao-nj/pr/new-jersey-man-sentenced-prison-largest-covid-19-tax-relief-fraud-scheme-countryPennsylvania Tax Preparer Jessica Cordero Faces Federal Charges in New Fraud Schemehttps://www.justice.gov/usao-edpa/pr/allentown-woman-and-two-others-charged-federal-court-wire-fraud-and-aggravated-identityIn This Critical Part of Audits, the Accountant's Role Is Shrinking Fasthttps://www.wsj.com/finance/accounting/auditors-ai-kpmg-pwc-ey-7f07d3a5KPMG Plans to Cut Up to 440 Audit Jobs in UKhttps://www.bloomberg.com/news/articles/2026-03-27/kpmg-set-to-shed-hundreds-of-auditors-as-attrition-remains-lowEY Requiring U.S. Tax Staff to Work In-Person 12 Days a Monthhttps://www.accountingtoday.com/news/ey-requiring-us-tax-staff-to-work-in-person-12-days-a-monthAI Is Changing How EY Recruits, Develops and Promotes Employeeshttps://www.businessinsider.com/ey-ai-talent-career-paths-accounting-2026High-Growth Accounting Firms Spend Twice as Much on Marketinghttps://hingemarketing.com/blog/story/marketing-financial-services-the-2025-forecastEvergrande Liquidators and PwC Head to Courthttps://www.accountingtoday.com/news/evergrande-liquidators-and-pwc-head-to-courtOntario Securities Commission Accuses KPMG of Botching Audits for Bridging Financehttps://www.accountingtoday.com/news/ontario-securities-commission-accuses-kpmg-of-botching-audits-for-bridging-financeJuno Raises $12M Seed to Scale AI Tax Preparation Platformhttps://www.cpapracticeadvisor.com/2026/04/13/juno-raises-12m-seed-to-scale-ai-tax-preparation-platform-that-automates-90-of-busy-work/181502/AI Slop Survey: A Third of Workers Rarely Check AI Output Before Using Ithttps://www.cpapracticeadvisor.com/2026/04/08/ai-slop-survey-a-third-of-workers-rarely-check-ai-output-before-using-it/181191/Agentic AI Frameworks and Artifact's Omni Platform Launchhttps://www.artifact.buildNeed CPE?Get CPE for listening to podcasts with Earmark: https://earmarkcpe.comSubscribe to the Earmark Podcast:

The alphabet you're reading right now is a 3,800-year-old archaeological artifact, preserving ancient decisions in plain sight—from the upside-down ox head that became the letter A to the demotion of zeta from sixth position to last place Z by Roman scribes annoyed with Greek letter order. What began around 1800 BC as Phoenician pictograms using the acrophonic principle (a dog picture representing the sound /d/) evolved through Greek vowel additions and Roman reshaping into the 26-letter system we use today, complete with fossils like the silent K in "know" and the orphaned Q that seemingly violates the whole phonemic principle by always needing U. English spelling isn't graphic anarchy—it's a battlefield where too many competing rules from Viking invasions, Norman conquest, Renaissance classicism, and the Great Vowel Shift all clash simultaneously, making "organize vs organise" and "zee vs zed" disputes echoes of ancient transmission routes across the globe. Today's guest is Danny Bate, author of Why Q Needs U: A History of Our Letters and How We Use Them. We discuss how the alphabet's simplicity—expressing phonemes rather than symbolic meanings like Egyptian hieroglyphs' 700 characters—allowed it to outlast more complex writing systems, why the rounded lips of /w/ gradually changed "was" from rhyming with "glass" in Shakespeare's time to "woz" today, and how English doesn't allow /ks/ at the start of syllables, forcing "xylophone" to sound like /z/. Bate also reveals advanced Scrabble wisdom: words like QI, QADI, and FAQIR let you deploy that high-point Q without U, exploiting the Arabic and Chinese loanwords that snuck into English spelling's surplus of competing regularities.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Dominique Kostelac is an amateur archaeologist, artifact hunter, farmer and all-around history buff living outside Charlottesville, Virginia. After a newspaper reading from 1869 about uncovering the skeletal remains of a conquistador in Appalachia, we open with Dominique describing the Monacan village he discovered on his riparian farm. From there we get into shocking examples of early, forgotten, and/or theoretical first arrivals of Europeans [and even the Chinese!] to Virginia and the East Coast in general. So how does one go about being an artifact hunter? With archival maps, jet skis, metal detectors, goggles and shovels, in search of eroding banks and knocking on farmers' doors. With over 50-years experience, Dominique previews the most prized finds from his 17th-century collection, all dug up in and around the Chesapeake Bay and up her waterways: a Turkish pirate coin; a flintlock pistol; a Spanish coin made into an Indian ornament; clay pipes; and a Jesuit stamped glass bottle. After skimming his overflowing trays of artifacts and hearing what the amateur has to offer to the professional field, we end on human remains and haunted places. Reading from Conquistador Found Buried Less than Twenty Miles from Saltville by Jim Glanville for Saltville Progress, April, 11 2013.Support Our Numinous Nature on Patreon.Follow Our Numinous Nature & my naturalist illustrations on InstagramCheck out my shop of shirts, prints, and books featuring my artContact: herbaceoushuman@gmail.com

Electronic fetal monitoring is one of the most common interventions in hospital birth, but it's also one of the least understood. In this episode, Dr. Rebecca Dekker talks with board-certified OB-GYN Dr. Jennifer Lincoln about what continuous electronic fetal monitoring actually does, what the research says, and why it became such a routine part of labor care in the first place. With recent media attention shining a spotlight on this technology, they break down the history, the evidence, and the real-world pressures that shape how it's used today. Learn why continuous monitoring can increase Cesarean rates in low-risk births, when it may be helpful in higher-risk situations, and how it can influence movement, comfort, and decision-making during labor. Dr. Lincoln also shares practical ways to ask questions, understand what terms like "reassuring" and "indeterminate" mean, and partner with your care team so you can make informed choices without feeling powerless or pressured.

Jim Lanzone is the CEO of Yahoo. It's basically impossible to sum up Yahoo's story over the last 25 years, but the short version is that once upon a time, Yahoo paid Google to run the search box on its website, and everything immediately went sideways. Jim calls it Yahoo's original sin. But after a long series of mergers, spinouts, and a hot, weird minute as part of Verizon Yahoo is once again an independent, privately held company — and it's growing. But can Yahoo really take market share from Google?
