Episode 1992: James Altucher reflects on the terrifying leap from a steady job at HBO to running his own business full time, revealing the emotional, financial, and ethical struggles that shaped him. Through hard-earned lessons about focus, honesty, growth, and commitment, he shows why quitting impulsively is a mistake, and why deliberate preparation changes everything. His story is a raw reminder that the decisions you make today quietly become the story of your life tomorrow. Read along with the original article(s) here: https://medium.com/the-mission/the-choices-you-make-today-will-be-your-biography-tomorrow-9d105857911b Quotes to ponder: "When you say yes to too many things, your fire dwindles. You extinguish the flames." "Don't quit. You have to build up: network, money, skills, alternatives, and probably many other things before you can quit." "The flowers that bloom the best are the ones the gardener waters and gives the most love to." Episode references: The Box NYC: https://theboxnyc.com/

Send a textIn this episode of the Cops and Writers Podcast bonus series, retired Milwaukee Police Sergeant Patrick O'Donnell reads Chapter 14, "Scooby-Doo Where Are You?" from his upcoming book:Police Stories: The Rookie Years - True Crime, Chaos, & Life as a Big City CopYou've probably seen it in movies or TV shows: a cop arrives at a crime scene, a victim is barely clinging to life, and with their final breath, they reveal who killed them. Case closed. Roll credits.Reality is messier.This is a short chapter, but one of the most unforgettable stories in the book. It's about a dying man's last words—and how Patrick can never watch Scooby-Doo the same way again.Jimmy T was one of the genuinely nice cops on the late shift. Five-foot-nine, built like a prizefighter, always had a smile on his face. When he shook Patrick's hand and introduced himself, nobody had ever been that nice to the FNG before. He called Patrick "Paddy" from that night on.They were working plainclothes backup in an unmarked Crown Vic when they heard twenty gunshots ring out. They found a man lying in the middle of the street, steam rising from multiple bullet holes in his chest. The paramedic shook his head 'no'—this guy wasn't going to make it.Patrick needed a dying declaration: "You're going to die. Who killed you?"The man's last words: "Scooby-Doo, Scooby-Doo, shot me!"To this day, Patrick can't watch Scooby-Doo without thinking of that night.All stories are real. Names and locations have been changed where necessary.

This week's Midweek Mention takes us somewhere unexpectedly moving — Bill Condon's Gods and Monsters (1998), a fictionalized account of the final days of James Whale, the British director who gave the world Frankenstein and Bride of Frankenstein. Sir Ian McKellen is extraordinary as the ageing, ailing Whale — a man whose health is failing, whose memories are fragmenting, and who has grown too tired to pretend he cares about social niceties. Into his life stumbles Clayton Boone (Brendan Fraser, in peak movie-star form), a gardener and former marine who becomes an unlikely companion in Whale's last chapter. What unfolds is a quiet, beautifully lit character study about aging, depression, homosexuality in 1950s Hollywood, and what happens when two very different men decide to be honest with each other. Lynn Redgrave as Hannah the disapproving housekeeper practically steals every scene she's in. There's strip journalism, a gas mask, a Hollywood party with Princess Margaret, and a swimming pool. Whale directed horror. He understood that tragedy works best when it makes you laugh first. Budget: $10M | Box office: ~$6.5M | BBC Films co-production | Premiered at Sundance Verdict: Strong recommend from Sidey and Cris. Dan missed it but is already planning to watch it.You can now text us anonymously to leave feedback, suggest future content or simply hurl abuse at us.

But when they're real, every cop drops everything.The first story: One of Patrick's first nights riding solo. A "kidnapping" call that turned out to be a domestic dispute, with an unfortunate twist.The second story: A real kidnapping. A mother duct-taped to a chair, beaten unconscious by her ex in a crack cocaine-fueled rage. Her five-year-old son is missing. Every cop on the shift came together. They weren't going home until they got that child back.All stories are real. Names and locations have been changed where necessary.

“You're flirting with time”, Tom sings. And I like that idea of not fully committing to time, just flirting with it. That's definitely how life feels when you're in your twenties and thirties. You don't really have to enter into a serious relationship with time because there's so much of it still ahead. You can mess around on it and you know it will always be there when you get home. There's an implicit transience to that title line that I absolutely love.Song : https://youtu.be/DSt4jArJo7M REFERENCED IN THE EPISODEJudge Timbers: https://youtu.be/s4fHgamxWXk Don't forget to follow me on social media, like, subscribe, and please, leave a rating if you like the show.Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/thetompettyprojectBluesky: https://bsky.app/profile/tompettyproject.bsky.socialInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/thetompettyprojectYouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@thetompettyprojectThreads: https://www.threads.net/@thetompettyprojectBoneless Podcasting Network: https://bonelesspodcasting.comAll music, including the theme song, provided by my very best friend Randy Woods.

In celebration of Women's History Month, this week's episode of The Learning Curve, co-hosts U-Ark Prof. Albert Cheng and MassPotential's Mary Tamer speak with Roxana Robinson to honor the extraordinary life and legacy of Georgia O'Keeffe, the pioneering artist often called the “Mother of American Modernism.” Drawing from Robinson's 1989 biography Georgia O'Keeffe: A Life, she traces O'Keeffe's life from the farmlands of Sun Prairie, Wisconsin to the bustling cultural landscape of early 20th-century New York City and to North Central New Mexico. The artist's reverence for natural landscapes, color, and light was shaped by her rural Midwestern upbringing and formal artistic training in Virginia. Robinson explains how O'Keeffe's stark transition to city life is reflected in her artwork, which often explores the line between modernism and traditional landscape painting. O'Keeffe's personal and professional relationship with celebrated photographer and art dealer Alfred Stieglitz marked another major turning point in her life and career. While Stieglitz championed her artistic talent, O'Keeffe also became the subject of more than 350 of his photographic portraits—some sparking public acclaim and controversy, while also helping shape her carefully constructed public image. Ms. Robinson further explores O'Keeffe's most famous works including Cow's Skull: Red, White, and Blue and Ram's Head, White Hollyhock – Hills, as well as her large-scale, magnified floral paintings, Jimson Weed/White Flower No. 1 and Red Canna. From O'Keeffe's early abstract experiments to her late-life desert visions, Robinson shares how the artist's expansive body of work reshaped American art and left a legacy that continues to inspire artists, scholars, and students in the 21st century. She closes with a reading from her book Georgia O'Keeffe: A Life.

Mr. Beast Biography Flash a weekly Biography.Hey gorgeous, it's me, Roxie Rush, your AI gossip guru, and honestly? That's exactly why you need me right now. I've got the receipts, the real-time intel, and zero human fatigue—just pure, unfiltered MrBeast tea served piping hot. Let's go!So buckle up, because this week has been absolutely WILD for Jimmy Donaldson, and I am living for the chaos. First of all, Beast Games Season Two is literally consuming Prime Video right now, and according to LA Times, we are in the endgame—episode eight just dropped and let me tell you, the drama is INSANE. We're talking buried-alive challenges, people making absolute villain moves with coins and cash piles, and Monika Ronk just full-on selling a magical coin that could've doubled the five million dollar prize for half a mil. The woman knows what she wants, and I respect it! MrBeast himself confirmed that episode ten is quote "probably the greatest content I've ever filmed in my life," so the finale hits February twenty-fifth and honestly, we cannot wait.But WAIT, there's more! Fortune magazine just reported this absolute scandal—MrBeast's own editor, Artem Kaptur, got caught red-handed insider trading on prediction markets using non-public information from his actual job. Kalshi surveillance caught him making near-perfect trades with statistically impossible success, and boom—fifteen thousand dollar fine, two-year suspension, and he had to return over five thousand dollars in profits. Beast Industries came out swinging saying they have zero tolerance, and they're conducting an independent investigation because apparently workplace integrity is finally becoming a thing.Oh, and speaking of shocking revelations, AOL is reporting that MrBeast just dropped a health update admitting he's borderline blind in one eye after people were criticizing his appearance online. The man keeps showing up and showing out regardless, which is honestly kind of inspiring in the most MrBeast way possible.Here's the wholesome moment though—El Pais just covered how MrBeast uploaded a video building ten schools across Africa, Asia, and the Americas for three million dollars total, with one brand new high school in San Andrés Tepetitlán in Mexico. First school in that town's entire history! He partnered with Fundación Televisa and even got Eugenio Derbez involved, and the principal literally had tears streaming down his face.So there you have it—Beast Games chaos, insider trading scandal, health revelations, and genuine philanthropy all in one explosive week.

Saving Grace is the work of a middle-aged man who fully knows himself and knows how to articulate the past and the present in three very vivid dimensions. Critical to retaining the song's pathos though, Tom doesn't project a future down this new path. It's important that Square One is here and now. It's important that being present in a moment and recognizing that every day and every minute is a chance for rebirth and reinvention is unconstrained by a prescribed destination. It's the ultimate expression of freedom.Song : https://youtu.be/Ux-RDvSHcI0REFERENCED IN THE EPISODEJudge Timbers: https://youtu.be/dTiYuYykaMkJake Thistle on American Idol : https://youtu.be/EVUI_FYlScMDon't forget to follow me on social media, like, subscribe, and please, leave a rating if you like the show.Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/thetompettyprojectBluesky: https://bsky.app/profile/tompettyproject.bsky.socialInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/thetompettyprojectYouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@thetompettyprojectThreads: https://www.threads.net/@thetompettyprojectAll music, including the theme song, provided by my very best friend Randy Woods.

This week, I talk with Susana M. Morris about her Octavia E. Butler cultural biography Positive Obsession: The Life and Times of Octavia E. Butler. Listen to hear about: Octavia Butler's journey from a shy, self-diagnosed dyslexic student to a groundbreaking sci-fi author, and how her relentless “positive obsession” with writing shaped her career.   How Butler's work reflects deep research, historical pattern recognition, and sharp social insight—explaining why her stories feel prophetic even though she chaffed at that comparison.   The personal costs and creative rewards of dedicating your life to meaningful work, and how Butler's example encourages artists and writers to pursue their own Positive Obsessions.   Check Out Author Social Media PackagesCheck out the Bookwild Community on PatreonCheck Out My Stories Are My Religion SubstackGet Bookwild MerchFollow @imbookwild on InstagramOther Co-hosts On Instagram:Gare Billings @gareindeedreadsSteph Lauer @books.in.badgerlandHalley Sutton @halleysutton25Brian Watson @readingwithbrianMacKenzie Green @missusa2mba
