Jordan Prosser discusses with Ivan six things which should be better known. Jordan Prosser is a writer, filmmaker and performer from Victoria, Australia. He is a graduate of the Victorian College of the Arts, and his short films and screenplays have won multiple international accolades. His short story Eleuterio Cabrera's Beautiful Game won the Peter Carey Short Story Award in 2022 and was published in Meanjin. Big Time is his debut novel. The Philippines. I had the privilege of traveling to and working in the Philippines a number of times throughout the 2010s. It's one of my favourite places on earth. Ivan Sen. Perhaps my favourite Australian filmmaker, helmer of Mystery Road and Goldstone and their multiple spin-off TV series, which are just as good and as specific to the Australian outback as Scand-noirs are to their cultures and landscapes. Wikipedia's ‘Timeline of the far future' and ‘Ultimate fate of the universe' pages. Every year has its own dedicated Wikipedia page, including years in the future. Andy Shauf. For my money, one of the best singer-songwriters of our generation, and something of a folk genius in the lineage of the Donovans and Nick Drakes of the world. His 2015 album The Bearer of Bad News is a modern-day Nebraska. How LLMs actually work. Which is to say: they are statistical models based on pattern recognition and predictability, powered by tremendous amounts of data and processing power. Big tech marketing has seduced so many into seeing them as quasi-mystical entities, when really, they're glorified spreadsheets. Eggnog. Probably the finest beverage on earth, but when you mention it, in Australia at least, people become mystified and their eyes immediately glaze over. I inherited my recipe from my (American) mother and make it every year at Christmas. This podcast is powered by ZenCast.fm

Chris Richards' towering header sealed a 1-0 win over Saudi Arabia to send the USMNT through to the Gold Cup knockouts. Jimmy Conrad, Charlie Davies, and Tony Meola break down the highs and lows from the narrow victory over the Green Falcons. The first half lacked attacking threat, but a more assured second-half display - with standout performances from Tyler Adams and Sebastian Berhalter in midfield - proved enough. Mauricio Pochettino rolled with the same starting XI for a second straight game, but with the knockouts looming and Haji Wright nursing an injury, will he tweak the setup going forward? Could a two-striker system be on the cards? The guys also preview Sunday's group stage finale, where the U.S. take on Haiti looking to wrap things up with a perfect nine points.
