Later, Blackhawks legend Chris Chelios joined the program to react to the Hurricanes winning the Stanley Cup.

Some new animal behavior science is causing a buzz... Whether or not insects play like other animals is one of the biggest mysteries in the natural world. And in this exciting Wow in the World episode, why insects play takes center stage – or rather, center field – as Mindy, Guy Raz, Dennis, Thomas Fingerling, and Gramma G-Force suit up as bumblebees to investigate a surprising scientific discovery: bees might play just for fun!New research from Queen Mary University of London could change the way we think about play. Along the way, the crew explores an incredible series of experiments involving buff-tailed bumblebees, tiny wooden balls, and a question that scientists have been asking for years: do animals play simply because it's fun?But beneath the bee-themed mayhem lies a fascinating true story about researchers who first taught bumblebees to move miniature balls toward goals for rewards—and then noticed something unexpected. Some bees were rolling balls around even when there was no prize to earn. Could the bees have been playing for the sheer joy of it?Packed with laugh-out-loud moments, wild bee-ball action, and surprising science, this episode explores what play can teach us about animals—and ourselves. By the end, Guy Raz may even learn that not everything needs to be productive to be worthwhile.So grab your bee suit, roll a ball, and get ready for a buzzing adventure into one of science's most delightful mysteries. From bee soccer to big questions about fun, curiosity, and behavior, this Wow in the World episode proves that sometimes the reward isn't a trophy, a treat, or a goal scored—it's simply the joy of playing.

We're coming off of our Summer Game Fest-related high, toting a bunch of news from publisher-driven events that occurred after we published our last episode. For starters, the Xbox Showcase... showcased... 28 games in total, of which 24 are coming to PlayStation 5, including State of Decay 3, Senua, and Spyro: A Realm Beyond (not to mention release dates for Halo: Combat Evolved and Fable). But Xbox's peculiar, wishy-washy, and inconsistent behavior likewise makes us wonder what the future might hold for Microsoft releases on Sony's hardware, especially because Gears of War: E-Day and Clockwork Revolution -- both internally slated to migrate to PlayStation 5 until very recently -- won't appear at all. Meanwhile, Nintendo's newest Direct also had some interesting fodder, including a surprise look at Kingdom Hearts IV, a brand new 2D-HD game in the form of Final Fantasy Resonance, and more. Other news this week revolves around Persona 4 Revival and Persona 6, a new Crazy Taxi adventure in the form of World Tour, a promising magic shooter called Magicians: The Devil's Deal, a fall release date for Castlevania: Belmont's Curse, and extremely strong sales figures for Yacht Club's Mina the Hollower. We wrap things up (as always) with listener inquiries! Now that everything has settled, what are our three most-anticipated games, respectively? Should Sony bite the bullet and greenlight Destiny 3? Where's Naughty Dog hiding? Is Colin falling prey to Big Plumber and Big Sewer propaganda by refusing to flush wipes?

This week we're sharing a special episode from our friends at Mentally Stronger with Therapist Amy Morin — the Webby Award–winning podcast hosted by psychotherapist and mental strength trainer Amy Morin, whose TEDx talk has been viewed more than 25 million times and whose books have sold over a million copies in more than fifty languages. Every week, Amy shares a practical, research-backed mental strength strategy you can use right away. Think of it as a therapy session you don't have to book: all of the strategy, none of the small talk. Today we're sharing her episode on outsmarting your inner critic. Amy introduces the anxious voice in her own head that tries to keep her from taking risks, and walks through a simple three-step play — backed by research on self-distancing — for taking that voice's power away so it stops running your life. This play is one of the fifty tools in her brand-new book, The Mental Strength Playbook. For more strategies like this, follow Mentally Stronger on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, or wherever you get your podcasts. And tell her Mike sent you.

You don't need protests, marches, or manufactured outrage to expose today's Democratic Party. All you have to do is let them talk. The reaction to the murder of Austin Metcalf and the conviction of Carmelo Anthony tells you everything you need to know. Instead of standing firmly on the side of truth, personal responsibility, and justice, too many voices on the left immediately turned to victimhood, racial division, and excuses. Facts became secondary. Reality became optional. Perhaps no one illustrated that disconnect better than Congresswoman Jasmine Crockett. Her comments suggesting the knife used in the killing was somehow not a deadly weapon and that Carmelo Anthony was simply trying to get out of the rain are so detached from common sense that they almost defy belief. A young man is dead. A family is devastated. Yet instead of focusing on the victim, some politicians seem more interested in creating narratives that fit their political agenda. What should have been a straightforward conversation about right and wrong quickly became another attempt to inflame racial tensions and pit Americans against each other. The same people who claim to oppose division seem determined to inject race into every tragedy, every crime, and every headline. Today on Stinchfield, I break down how Democrats are often their own worst enemy. Their words reveal the lack of common sense. Their arguments expose the victim mentality. Their reactions uncover a worldview detached from reality. The more they speak, the more Americans see through the deception. The truth is simple: when your ideas can't survive scrutiny, outrage becomes the strategy. And that's exactly what's happening before our eyes.

In this coaching episode, I'm joined by Kim, a lawyer and divorce mediator based in the Canadian Great Plains who has spent her career helping others navigate some of the hardest transitions of their lives (lord knows, I've done it twice!). What she brought to our session was something so many of us carry quietly– a shame spiral from a painful professional experience nearly a decade ago that she couldn't quite shake, and the way it had been silently running the show ever since. This one went places I didn't expect, and I think that's exactly why you need to hear it. We ended up in territory around conditioning, self-trust, intuition, and what it really means to put yourself first when your whole life has been built around “doing your duty” as a woman. Kim also sent in a follow-up update three months later, and I'm not going to spoil it, but it pleasantly surprised me. Key Takeaways: Shame from a painful event doesn't just live in your head. It shows up in the opportunities you stop pursuing without even realizing it. The question that can change everything: what is my conditioning versus what is my truth? Beating yourself up for not trusting your intuition sooner is not actually going to help you trust it more. Your nervous system is the judge and jury, and you build self-trust by giving it small, low-stakes evidence over time. "Just because you can doesn't mean you have to". Kim's own words, and one of my favorite takeaways from this whole conversation. Healing rarely looks like a dramatic moment of clarity.  It's quieter, slower, and usually made up of a hundred small things stacking up over time. Intention setting is one of the most underrated tools we have for slowly opening ourselves up to trusting something beyond the system. Kim's update at the end of this episode is proof that sometimes the most profound shifts happen in the places you least expect them, and that the real work is just deciding to stop vomiting on the barn floor.

Rory O'Neill, CMO of Checkout.com, doesn't just solve for payments- he's solving for brand preference in a crowded payments space. And he's doing it by competing on what's different, not what others do better. That insight changes everything, from how you position payments to how you build a team that can sustain growth as a challenger. In the latest episode of Scratch, Rory breaks down the playbook that lets Checkout compete with global giants. Brand preference wins 95% of B2B deals before salespeople ever show up- so your marketing owns the invisible 60% of the buyer's journey. Challenger brands win by picking one fight and building culture around it, not chasing everything competitors do. He reveals the three-part formula: focus your core business, build your culture, reinvest profit. Consumer marketing skills-data, insight, action-are B2B's secret superpower. And his rule: if you wouldn't say it at dinner, don't write it in marketing. The key takeaway: Brand preference wins deals - 95% of the time, the brands on the day-one top-five list are the ones that win. B2B buyers spend 60% of their journey before contacting a salesperson. Define your focus as a challenger - Compete on what's different, not on what competitors do better. Checkout only does digital payments to stay focused while competitors spread across multiple business lines. Three elements beat category norms - Focus on your core business, build the human operating system (culture, people, vision), then reinvest capital in new products. Consumer marketer skills are powerful in B2B - Data, insight, action, brand building, and performance marketing from the consumer world unlock B2B success. Understand stakeholder maps - B2B is complex: CTOs influence CFOs, recommenders influence buyers. Map those relationships to win. Simplify your language - Ditch jargon like "frictionless" and "seamless." Use words you'd use at dinner. Marketing becomes more interesting and understood. Marketing is logic and magic - Be both data-driven and creative. Avoid letting fiefdoms kill integrated work. Join everything together.

Someone gets in a car accident, Googles a lawyer, and lands on a site that reads like a resume. They are already gone. In this episode of Content Amplified, Jonathan Murray, Marketing Director at Legends Legal Marketing, explains why trust-based content is winning right now and why polished, AI-perfect content is starting to repel the people it is meant to attract. Jonathan unpacks his core idea that your client is the movie star and you are the supporting cast, the difference between a site that lists your accolades and one that speaks to what the client is feeling, and why ego is the thing that holds most business owners back. He gets specific: the photo shoot that swaps the tie-at-the-desk shot for sleeves rolled up on the farm, why your colleagues are not your clients, the Gary Vee talking-head comparison, his rule to keep content unpolished 70% of the time, and treating AI like an editor-in-chief you trust but verify. If you want your content to sound like a person instead of a bot, this conversation tells you how.About JonathanJonathan Murray is the Marketing Director at Legends Legal Marketing, a boutique firm that works with law firms across multiple niches and only takes on clients it believes it can deliver real return on investment for. He has more than 15 to 20 years of sales and marketing experience, ranging from door-to-door and retail sales to B2B sales, leading teams of around 50 people, and running his own small-business marketing and social media consulting.

307 - The Invisible Prime Borrower: How Efri Argaman Is Unlocking Homeownership for 42 Million Americans What if the biggest barrier to homeownership in America wasn't money, it was the wrong measuring stick? Right now, an estimated 37 to 42 million people in this country have the income to buy a home, pay their rent on time every single month, and are still being turned away by the traditional lending system simply because their income doesn't come with a W-2. That's not a credit problem. That's a broken system problem. And Efri Argaman, founder and CEO of OwnEZ, built a fintech company to fix it. In this episode, Efri breaks down how OwnEZ developed a non-discriminatory alternative data underwriting engine that looks at what actually matters: rental payment history, cash flow patterns, and financial responsibility, not a FICO score that can be gamed. He introduces the concept of the "invisible prime borrower": the gig worker, the ITIN holder, the self-employed real estate investor with near-zero taxable income who is financially solid but locked out of conventional lending. Efri and his team are converting what he calls chronic renters into homeowners, and along the way, creating a passive investment vehicle for accredited investors that has delivered 8.5 to 9% annual yield, without leverage, and without a single investor loss since inception. If you are a real estate investor looking for a stable, non-correlated addition to your portfolio, a self-employed entrepreneur who has been told no by a traditional lender, or someone who believes the financial system needs to work for more people, this episode was made for you. With Fund Five now open at a $50,000 minimum, the door to investing with OwnEZ is more accessible than ever. Do not miss this one. 5 Powerful Takeaways Your FICO score is a manipulatable number, not a true measure of your ability to pay: OwnEZ's underwriting looks at the real reasons behind a score and uses rental history, cash flow, and financial behavior to identify borrowers who will actually perform, not just those who know how to game revolving credit. The gig economy created a homeownership crisis that almost no one is solving at scale: Gig workers, 1099 earners, and ITIN holders often earn excellent incomes but are systematically excluded from Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac-backed loans. OwnEZ was built specifically to close that gap. Owner-occupied lending is the lowest-risk real estate investment most investors are completely ignoring: Borrowers who live in their own homes have a fundamentally different relationship with their mortgage than investors do. They default only as a last resort, making OwnEZ's loan portfolio dramatically more stable than most real estate investment vehicles. A non-leveraged fund structure can survive the market crashes that wipe out leveraged investors: By choosing not to borrow against the fund, OwnEZ has the flexibility to hold, rent, or wait during downturns — the exact strategy that protects capital when leveraged competitors are forced to sell at the worst possible time. Don't confuse being busy with being productive: The most impactful piece of advice Efri received early in his career shapes everything about how he runs his company, protects his team's personal time, and builds a business designed for long-term balance rather than burnout. 00:00 REIGN Podcast Intro 00:52 Wholesaler Red Flags 03:26 Meet Efri Argaman 05:08 What Is Fintech 07:14 Real Estate Lessons Learned 10:08 OwnEZ Borrower Model 12:15 Alternative Data Underwriting 15:00 Invisible Prime Borrowers 17:21 Property Types Financed 18:36 Investor Returns And Risk 24:45 Fund Structure And Accreditation 25:51 Passive Yield Overview 26:55 Fund Five Lower Minimums 27:51 Wealth Preservation Pitch 29:27 Why Own Easy Differs 30:34 Crisis Proofing Without Leverage 33:30 Karma And Tenant Story 36:34 Scaling And Evergreen Fund 38:44 Badass Book And Route 66 40:51 Advice Drive And Goals 44:50 Systems Success And Wrap Up About the Guest Efri Argaman is the founder and CEO of OwnEZ, Inc., a data-driven fintech company headquartered in Austin, Texas, focused on expanding access to homeownership through alternative data lending solutions. A residential real estate investor since 2009 with experience across rentals, flips, financing, and new construction, Efri built his career at the intersection of real estate investing and financial innovation. Under his leadership, OwnEZ developed a proprietary underwriting engine that evaluates borrowers on cash flow, rental history, and financial behavior rather than traditional credit scores, and has originated hundreds of mortgages for families locked out of the conventional lending system. He is a recognized voice in fintech and real estate, and a passionate advocate for the tens of millions of Americans the current financial system leaves behind.

Lucinda welcomes career and leadership coach Laura Ogilvie-Jones to explore the rising corporate phenomenon of "comparativitis" where high-performing, senior professionals secretly lose confidence due to the pressures of social media, rapid technological change, and AI.  Laura shares her insightful, values-driven coaching methods such as the North Arrow and Buzz Sheets to reveal how HR professionals can spot warning signs of fading confidence and foster environments of vulnerability to help leaders rebuild their self-assurance. KEY TAKEAWAYS High performers often project a polished professional image externally while secretly battling severe imposter syndrome and eroding confidence underneath. Constant bombardment from social media platforms like LinkedIn and Instagram pressures professionals to compare themselves to others, leading to self-doubt and second-guessing. True, sustainable leadership confidence is built not by maintaining a flawless, numeric-driven facade, but by embracing emotional intelligence, vulnerability, and self-awareness. HR can identify leaders struggling with confidence by watching for noticeable behaviour changes, such as withdrawal from opportunities, overthinking, or uncharacteristic defensiveness. BEST MOMENTS "They may well appear very confident externally... but actually underneath they might be struggling, and they might be losing confidence and having wobbles, having doubts, but they don't feel able to verbalise that." "The word I often use with my clients to talk about is 'comparativitis'. We are absolutely bombarded with images, news, communication about other people and what they're doing and how amazing they are." "When I'm working with someone one-to-one, it's the first time they've ever actually been honest, vulnerable, and authentic about what is actually going on and how they're actually feeling." "If you don't have that self-awareness, you're just, you know, blissfully carrying on."

In this episode of The Right Time, Bomani Jones and Danny Parkins break down why Karl-Anthony Towns might be the real key to a New York Knicks title run. Bomani argues that KAT has been the Knicks' best player in the postseason and explains why New York looks its most dangerous when the offense runs through Towns instead of falling into heavy Jalen Brunson isolation ball. They also get into how Towns' aggressiveness has changed the way people see him, why his effort level has been the biggest difference, and what this kind of playoff run could mean for his long-term legacy if the Knicks finish the job. Later in the episode, Bomani and Danny debate Russell Wilson's Hall of Fame case, including how much his Pro Bowls matter, how his resume compares to Matthew Stafford, and whether public opinion has swung too far against him after the Denver years.

"There is nothing quite like the real thing." Broadcasting live from the breathtaking heights of the Bear Shadow Music Festival in Highlands, North Carolina, Jrodconcerts: The Podcast sits down with a true renaissance man and the ultimate living defiance to the modern music machine: the uniquely brilliant Charley Crockett. As one of the most prolific and uncompromising artists of our generation, Charley has spent the last decade single-handedly redefining what it means to be independent in the roots and Americana landscape. He doesn't just preserve the soul of American music—he moves it forward entirely on his own terms. In fact, he recently shocked the entire industry by dropping a surprise independent album, Clovis, just weeks after releasing his 20-song epic, Age of the Ram, and then boldly pulling it from streaming platforms to protect his precise artistic vision from major-label constraints. In this deep, high-fidelity conversation, host Jamie sits down backstage with Charley to break down the philosophy behind that relentless, rogue drive. They dive into why physical touring is the single, solitary weapon left to beat artificial intelligence, how he trained himself to be completely "unreasonable" with his standards to protect his inner peace, and the raw creative friction it took to craft Age of the Ram hand-in-hand with Shooter Jennings at Sunset Sound. Charley also pulls back the curtain on his legendary decision to turn down every major record deal on his rise to the top, and reveals what truly drives his "WHY" today. Skip the corporate noise and tune into a masterclass in autonomy, creative warfare, and cultural impact. __ Inside the Episode: The Human Breakthrough: Why standing on a stage in front of a breathing crowd is the only way to defeat the efficiency of AI. The Inner Blueprint: Training yourself to reject outside expectations and protect your artistic timeline. The Trailer Hook: The reality behind turning down every record deal to maintain pure freedom. Creative Friction at Sunset Sound: Navigating intense collaboration with Shooter Jennings on a 20-song masterpiece.
