Online marketplaces and auctions seem to still be going strong. We dive in to discuss where we think the best places are to buy vintage toys.

A bipartisan crackdown on AI deepfakes is gaining momentum in Washington, but the video game industry is pushing back. While the "NO FAKES Act" aims to protect Americans' voices and images from unauthorized digital replication, the Entertainment Software Association (ESA) argues the bill contains a massive blind spot. Developers warn that without explicit exemptions, the legislation could invite crippling lawsuits over standard gaming practices, such as background NPC generation and player-led character creation. We explore the tension between protecting personal rights and maintaining the creative freedom necessary for modern interactive entertainment.

Following hardware price hikes across Xbox and Valve's new Steam Machine, Sony Interactive executives have hinted that their upcoming console may depart from the industry's traditional "loss leader" strategy. In a recent Q&A, the company stated it does not intend to sell hardware at "significant losses," while also dropping major hints that its next system could feature portable capabilities similar to the Nintendo Switch. Meanwhile, we look at the legendary indie title The Binding of Isaac: Rebirth, which just set a new record for concurrent users on Steam following a massive 90% discount in the platform's Summer Sale, marking a historic win for a critical darling that has famously been snubbed by major awards for over a decade.

Everyone is jumping on the Giannis trade train

Ron Friedman is an award-winning social psychologist, and bestselling author of The Best Place to Work and Decoding Greatness. And his new book, SuperTeams draws on data from 6,000 workers. I hope you enjoy learning from Ron Friedman today. In this episode we discuss the following: The best teams are not just a lucky collection of talented people. They work differently. The best teams protect focus. They treat meetings as a last resort, not the default. They create cultures where people do not just answer to the boss—they feel accountable to one another. They seek feedback before the work is finished, and they run experiments looking for new ideas. Recovery is not just doing nothing. Sometimes the best way to recover from work is to do something challenging, energizing, and personally meaningful. Visit this link for a free Masterclass: http://superteamsmasterclass.com/

Ron Friedman, PhD, is an award-winning psychologist who helps leaders build high-performing teams. He is the bestselling author of The Best Place to Work and Decoding Greatness. His new book, Superteams: The Science and Secrets of High-Performing Teams, reveals what the best teams do differently. Superteams reveals what the best teams do differently, based on the most comprehensive study of elite groups ever conducted. After surveying thousands of teams, award-winning social psychologist Ron Friedman found that the most successful teams aren't the ones that collaborate most, get along best, or put in the longest hours. What really sets them apart is the way they manage their energy and attention, bring out the best in one another, and keep improving over time. Ron joins Justin to dive deep into Superteams.

Most leaders are told the same lie: more collaboration = better results. Ron Friedman's research says otherwise — and the data will change how you run your team. Ron Friedman is an award-winning social psychologist, bestselling author of Superteams and The Best Place to Work, and founder of Superteams Inc. His research on high-performing teams revealed something surprising: only 8% of teams qualify as superteams — and it has nothing to do with where they work. In this episode, we break down exactly what separates superteams from everyone else.

In this week's EMQs George Osborne and Ed Balls take on a question from Jeremy Hunt who asks if chancellors are under pressure to push through new reform as soon as they are in office. Ed and George bring their experience to the query. Following the Pope's letter on the topic of AI, one listener asks for Ed and George's reaction to the papal intervention. In the Pope's encyclical, he asks if AI is a force for good or bad. George and Ed applaud Pope Leo's early engagement into the topic and, like the Pope, think human dignity needs to be at the heart of all new technological advancements. MP, Minister and mountain rescue volunteer Josh MacAlister asks a question that takes George back to his constituency in Tatton and prompts Ed to share his knowledge and his appreciation for rhubarb. Also a query from Australia triggers a debate on politicians shaping policy to benefit their loved one. Plus there's confirmation of what's NOT going to be on the setlist at the upcoming Centrist Dad's gig at the Water Rats in London.We love hearing from you, so please don't forget to send all your EMQs to questions@politicalcurrency and make sure to include a voice note of your question or send a question to our social media handles:
