As the founder of The Sinfonietta and CEO of Overture Global Entertainment, she's not just producing concerts—she's designing live experiences that feel transformative for new audiences. In this episode, Macy reflects on the early influences that shaped her approach to orchestration, the audience-first philosophy that guides her work, and how she's scaling women-led orchestras around the world. She also shares how one bold pitch to Mattel grew into Barbie the Movie in Concert, and reveals the creative decisions that made the project a global phenomenon. For arts and culture leaders, Macy's insights show what's possible when you shift from guarding traditions to designing moments that stay with people long after the final note.

    Today, we dissect Little Farm Story Idle Tycoon — SayGames' latest farming-idle hybrid that feels like a mashup of Dreamdale, My Perfect Hotel, and Idle Breaker.Key insights:Gameplay Loop:Clearing grass → unlocking fields → harvesting → selling resources.Heavy reliance on ads for progression (resources, boosts, even eggs).“Annoyance monetization”: progress gates force you to watch ads or buy “No Ads” pack.Monetization:~$67–70K/day in revenue.~53% from ads, ~47% from IAP.Ad breakdown: ~$24K rewarded, ~$10K interstitials, ~$500–700 from banners (“why bother?”).“Remove Ads” pack is likely the top IAP — players pushed into it by frustration.Design Choices:Map expands with resource conversions (tomatoes → ketchup, chickens → eggs, wood → upgrades).Inventory/capacity upgrades disguised as RPG-like gear, but tied to ad rewards.Cosmetic shop + IAP items scattered on map.UA & Creatives:Ads mirror Township / Playrix resource ads and Century Games' UA tricks (suction devices, backpacks).Low-poly art style keeps CPIs down, but LTVs capped.Playables + AI-generated UGC, but “Township-from-Wish” vibe.Heavy interstitial cross-promo inside SayGames portfolio (even multiple in a row).Market & Scaling:Currently SayGames' #1 title by IAP revenue.~$2M monthly run rate, growing but not viral like Dreamdale or My Perfect Hotel.Audience skew: ~63% US revenue, Tier 1 heavy.Takeaway: Little Farm Story is a polished ad-driven idle hybrid, but its top IAP being “Remove Ads” caps its growth potential.PVX Partners offers non-dilutive funding for game developers.Go to: https://pvxpartners.com/They can help you access the most effective form of growth capital once you have the metrics to back it.- Scale fast- Keep your shares- Drawdown only as needed- Have PvX take downside risk alongside you+ Work with a team entirely made up of ex-gaming operators and investors---------------------------------------For an ever-growing number of game developers, this means that now is the perfect time to invest in monetizing direct-to-consumer at scale.Our sponsor FastSpring:Has delivered D2C at scale for over 20 yearsThey power top mobile publishers around the worldLaunch a new webstore, replace an existing D2C vendor, or add a redundant D2C vendor at fastspring.gg.---------------------------------------This is no BS gaming podcast 2.5 gamers session.

Ben and I discuss the online Left, audience capture, and creator burnout. We dive into how the platform economy shapes political discourse, why “LeftTube” often functions like a brand, and what it takes to create thoughtfully without becoming a hot-take machine. We explore burnout vs. purpose, streaming as pseudo-activity, theory vs. practice, and get a little bit into psychoanalysis & political philosophy. In The Backroom on Patreon, Ben and I discuss our political maturations, psychoanalysis as a toolkit for left politics, and how postmodern theory became an entry point for many while class analysis got sidelined. We also chat about the Canadian political landscape (Quebec and Alberta Separatism), on what a constructive, civic-minded nationalism could look like. Last but not least, we talk about the so-called “masculinity crisis.” Timestamps:00:00:00 The Backroom Preview: Fascist Phisyogamy00:02:32 Backroom teaser & what we dig into behind the paywall00:03:41 Who is Sisyphus 55?00:04:57 Content craft & workflow — scripts, editing, and avoiding the hot-take grind00:06:52 Grad school & clinical psych insights for creators00:10:52 Audience capture and algorithm pressure00:13:11 The online Left as “brand” — incentives, identity, and discourse00:18:22 Creator burnout on YouTube00:33:41 The Revolution Will Not Be Uploaded 00:40:23 Desire & repression 01:23:05 where to go from here & The Backroom transitionGUEST:Ben Tomas (Sisyphus 55) — philosophy/psychology YouTuber; clinical psychology PhD student; creator of The Revolution Won't Be Livestreamed series• YouTube: @Sisyphus55• Patreon / socials: search “Sisyphus 55”• Recommended starting point: The Revolution Won't Be Livestreamed (series)FOLLOW 1Dime:• X/Twitter: https://x.com/1DimeOfficial• Instagram: instagram.com/1dimeman• Main channel: https://www.youtube.com/@1Dimee• Substack: https://substack.com/@tonyof1dimeOutro Music by Karl CaseyGIve 1Dime a 5-Star Rating if you enjoy the show!

Get the Remarkable Episode ChecklistWho and WhyWhen it comes to growing your podcast, there are two things that drive the content and the first one is who is your audience. It can't be “everybody” and it can't be “men 25 to 50” as there is a big difference between those two men. There is one situation that I'll talk about in a minute that is an exception. The Three R'sRelative Content: Shows the audience, ““I understand where you are, and here's something useful for you today.”Remarkable Content: Create episodes worth talking about or sharing. A good podcast reliably informs or entertains with quality, while a remarkable podcast emotionally connects, inspires, and leaves a lasting impression through exceptional storytelling, unique content, or innovative presentationWhen you have relative, remarkable content it resonates with your audience (and they tell a friend).Examine Your Showpodcastsconnect.apple.com and creators.spotify.com allow you to check your completion rate.Community, Community, CommunityYou can use tools like Heartbeat, Systeme, and Circle (Systeme has a free version) to build a community.

They discuss the creative process, challenges faced in writing horror, and the intersection of horror and fantasy. The conversation explores themes of grief, trauma, and societal issues reflected in horror storytelling, as well as the impact of marketing on the success of films. The hosts share personal connections to the stories and the balance of humor and horror in storytelling, culminating in a rich discussion about the messages conveyed in 'Weapons.' In this conversation, the hosts delve into the multifaceted themes of a horror film, exploring the emotional impact of parenthood, the blending of genres, character development, and the significance of humor within horror. They discuss the various perspectives of characters, the dynamics of class within the narrative, and the reveal of the antagonist. The conversation also touches on the implications of nightmares, theories of time and reality, and concludes with reflections on the film's ending and its emotional resonance.

    A live, dice-driven episode of Wise_N_Nerdy where fatherhood truly meets fandom. Charles, Joe, and special guest Josh Cooper (Uploads of Fun) kick off with bad dad jokes, rule on a contentious Parliament of Papas case (Disney vs. Comic-Con), and trade stories about rewatching childhood movies as parents—TV edits, innuendo, and all. Audience mic stories bring the heat, from TMNT's rooftop to Robocop's cartoon tie-ins. The crew closes with practical strategies for overcoming sheltered upbringings: context, conversation, and teaching courage instead of fear.Bad Dad Jokes (rolled a 6)Icebreakers from stage and audience (dragons + fast food; “Poof! You're a drink.”).Ongoing bit: “There is no such thing as a good dad joke.”Parliament of Papas (rolled a 4)Reddit case: “Am I the buttface for going to Comic-Con after my wife took our kid (and her ex) to Disney without me—using our miles?”Panel reaction: finances + co-parenting ≠ unilateral decisions; ex attending without current spouse is a relational red flag.Consensus: wife = primary buttface; husband needs boundaries; bigger issue is relationship health.Daddy, Tell Me a Story (rolled a 2) — Rewatching childhood movies as parentsExamples: Caddyshack, Revenge of the Nerds, Three Fugitives, Firestarter, TMNT (1990 rooftop scene), Blankman, Transformers: The Movie ('86 toy-reset trauma), Robocop (how was this a cartoon?), The Ringer, Monty Python: Meaning of Life.Themes: TV edits vs. theatrical cuts; using IMDb Parents Guide; explaining dated humor; navigating innuendo in “family” animation; when to pause/skip with kids.How do I overcome my sheltered upbringing? (segued after gift moment)Hosts/guest share growing up Pentecostal/Southern Baptist/Mormon variations: satanic panic era (D&D, Magic cards), filtered DVD players, language rules.Parenting approaches now: teach context and timing for language; “if you don't know what it means, don't say it”; consent to discuss anything; “If it's on TV, it's not real.”Tools for fear/nightmares: teach lucid-dream control (look at your hand; give yourself a bazooka), anchor objects (a huggable TARDIS), model calm vs. catastrophizing.Live mic stories: rewatch shocks (Harry Potter attitudes, Severance tension without nudity, Blue Eye Samurai content surprise, 2001: A Space Odyssey at age six, Jaws jump scare), “that channel” confessions, schoolyard language, and representing disability positively in The Ringer.Parenting wisdom from audience: treat kids as autonomous humans; teach agency, not fear.Family-friendly doesn't mean sterile—context, conversation, and consent beat blanket bans.Rewatches are opportunities: talk era, edits, and what's changed culturally.Co-parenting logistics require transparency, not unilateral “surprises.”Teach courage over fear; give kids cognitive tools to manage scary media and language.“Everything I do is family-friendly—as long as you're my family.” —Charles“Teach time and place. Context turns ‘forbidden' into teachable.” —Josh“The second you posted to Reddit, you knew the answer—this is a relationship problem.” —Panel“If it's on TV, it's not real.

    Trump was losing in the courts. He's not anymore.In the early months of the administration, the courts were proving a powerful check on President Trump, blocking many of his boldest actions. But those were the lower courts. In the past few months, the Supreme Court has weighed in, and it has handed Trump win after win after win.So what do these decisions enable the president to do? And why is the Supreme Court giving Trump what he wants?To pull all this apart, I'm joined by Kate Shaw. She is a former Supreme Court law clerk, a professor at the University of Pennsylvania Carey Law School and a host of the “Strict Scrutiny” podcast.Note: This episode was recorded on Aug. 21, before Trump announced his intention to fire Lisa Cook from the Federal Reserve Board of Governors and before Immigration and Customs Enforcement re-arrested Kilmar Armando Abrego Garcia and began processing him for deportation to Uganda.Mentioned:“Don't Believe Him” by Ezra Klein“This Is the Presidency John Roberts Has Built” by Peter M.
