On this episode, Jim Hill and Eric Hersey dig into the latest Universal Orlando updates before turning to a deep-dive tribute to Jay Stein — the visionary who transformed Universal's backlot tour into a spectacle factory and helped define the studio's signature “JayBang” style of themed entertainment. NEWS NBC's Wicked: One Wonderful Night special sparks strong reactions as Universal's cross-promotions continue everywhere from Dunkin' to TV tie-ins. New 2026 Universal Orlando ticket options clarify how multi-day guests can access Epic Universe more than once. Reddit reactions and critic reviews paint a wide spectrum of opinions on Universal's latest TV musical marketing moment. Preparations continue around Orlando as fans look ahead to more detailed Epic Universe rollouts. FEATURE — A TRIBUTE TO JAY STEIN How a 26-year-old studio problem-solver was handed one directive: “Fix the tram tour.” The creation of the very first “JayBang”: the 1968 Flash Flood, sending 20,000 gallons of water rushing past the tram. The shift from generic “movie magic” to effects pulled straight from current Universal Pictures releases. The Eiger Sanction–inspired glacier tunnel illusion, which evolved into one of the most memorable tram finales ever built. Why Jay Stein's fingerprints can still be felt across every fireball, near-miss shark, collapsing bridge, and runaway vehicle in Universal's attraction lineup.

In our conversation we dive into all things natural birth (she's got some epic tales), communing with medicines of the earth as a supportive tool for present attuned parenthood and joyful living. We talk about mothering in Costa Rica outside of conventional norms, her relationship with spirit and Lauren's journey of sovereign fertility awareness and working with natural contraceptive methods. Along Lauren's path as a birth keeper and fertility awareness educator, she discovered one of the most valuable tools for women looking to care for their fertility needs, Wise Women's Choice. Today, she and her husband produce this cream in Costa Rica and serve clients around the world. She has helped thousands of women coming off hormonal contraceptives through her teachings and resources, and is leading a revolution rooted in sisterhood, feminine empowerment, and womb wisdom.     She is raising up sacred wisdom carriers to share these teachings and partnering with local producers globally to spread this priceless birth control tool internationally at a grassroots level.

With Advent upcoming, we can make the most of the liturgical season as a means to prepare for the celebrations of Christmas. In this episode of On Mission, Chris Pierno, Sarah Scalfaro, and Fr. Frank Donio, S.A.C. discuss how we can use Advent as a means to spiritually and practically prepare for Christmas.Christmas quickly approaches and with it Advent. With the fast-paced nature of the time between Thanksgiving and Christmas, Advent can simply pass by. But if we intentionally use the four weeks of Advent, we can find more spiritual fulfillment when Christmas arrives. Advent is often considered the little Lent. What Lent like practices can we incorporate into our Advent observances? For example, we can emphasize more charitable works within our communities, we can fast, and we can take up certain prayer practices to help us pave the way for the Lord. View our Advent Resources page Related On Mission episodes:Feasts of AdventAdvent ResourcesAdvent From the Ad Infinitum blog:A Light in DarknessBeyond a TwinkleMore posts about the Advent Check out the main Saints and Feast Days websiteDownload the App on the App Store or Google Play  Follow us:The Catholic Apostolate CenterThe Center's podcast websiteInstagramFacebookApple PodcastsSpotify On Mission is produced by the Catholic Apostolate Center.

Mystic Bowie, the charismatic frontman of the Talking Dreads and a notable figure in the musical landscape, engaged in a profound dialogue with Joe Kelley on the Musicians Reveal podcast. The conversation traversed various aspects of Bowie's illustrious career, commencing with the serendipitous acquisition of his first guitar, a gift from none other than Jerry Garcia of the Grateful Dead. This anecdote served as a poignant reminder of the interconnectedness of musicians and the unexpected paths that lead to creative fruition. Bowie recounted his journey from the vibrant music scene in Jamaica to his collaborations with the likes of Chris Frantz and Tina Weymouth of Tom Tom Club, emphasizing the collaborative spirit that underpins his work. As the discussion progressed, Bowie elaborated on the inception of the Talking Dreads project, a creative endeavor that reimagines the music of the Talking Heads through a reggae lens. His passion for reggae and his desire to honor the legacy of the Talking Heads culminated in this innovative fusion, which has been well-received by audiences across the globe. Bowie expressed gratitude for the support of his musical peers, including Seymour Stein, who granted his blessing for the project, further solidifying the bond between artists across generations. This episode not only showcases Bowie's musical prowess but also highlights his commitment to philanthropy and community engagement in Jamaica, demonstrating that his artistry transcends mere entertainment and embodies a deeper social responsibility. The conversation culminated in a reflection on the essence of music as a unifying force, with Bowie advocating for a return to the collaborative ethos that characterized the music scene of his youth. He lamented the current state of the industry, where competition often overshadows camaraderie, and urged emerging artists to draw inspiration from established musicians. This notion of mentorship and mutual respect underscores the importance of community in the arts. The episode closes with a sense of hope, as Bowie prepares for upcoming performances, including a New Year's Eve celebration in Saratoga Springs, where he promises to deliver an unforgettable experience that melds the rhythmic pulse of reggae with the artistic legacy of iconic bands.Links referenced in this episode:talkingdreads.com

“He was one of the first Black independent record producer of the postwar era — and nobody knew.” That's the spark Marsha Music brings into this powerful Detroit Is Different conversation as she unravels the epic, unsung story of her father, Joe Von Battle — the man who recorded Reverend C.L. Franklin, who cut Aretha's first records, and who captured the raw blues heartbeat of Black Detroit before Motown ever learned to walk. Through laughter, testimony, and hard truth, Marsha paints a living portrait of migration from Macon to Black Bottom, of a father who “refused to ever work for another man,” and of a city built by people who “carried their music wherever they went.” She shares how tuberculosis quarantines, foundry labor, postwar factory shifts, and the destruction of Hastings Street shaped — and scarred — her family's journey. But she also gives us the beauty: John Lee Hooker sleeping on their couch, Kenny Burrell's first recording happening behind the record-shop glass, and the way the Franklin sermons were rushed to the Guardian Building to be broadcast across the country on CKLW. Marsha doesn't just talk history — she makes it breathe. She shows how the past explains the present: why the rebellion still echoes, why Detroit sound can't be separated from Detroit struggle, and why honoring “the people who built this place with their hands and their voices” is the key to our cultural future. Detroit is Different is a podcast hosted by Khary Frazier covering people adding to the culture of an American Classic city.

Two Black women. Two different states. One shared, terrifying experience: being ignored by the very people sworn to care for them. Why are Black women in 2025 still screaming to be heard? In this episode of The Gritty Nurse, Amie Archibald-Varley, a former L & D nurse and Maternal Health Expert (Masters in Women's Health) breaks down the viral birth stories of Karrie Jones (Dallas) and Mercedes Wells (Indiana)—two harrowing cases of medical racism & gaslighting that have shaken the nursing & medical world. We analyze the 54-million-view footage, dissect the latest maternal mortality stats, and discuss actionable steps for nurses to become better allies. From Karrie's screams being dismissed during intake to Mercedes being discharged only to give birth in her car eight minutes later, we are breaking down exactly what went wrong. We discuss the failure of the nurse and nursing teams, the weaponization of hospital policies, and the "weathering" effect that is keeping Black maternal mortality rates 3.5x higher than white counterparts. In this episode, we cover: The Receipts: A minute-by-minute breakdown of the viral videos from Dallas Regional and Franciscan Health. The Stats: Why 2025 data shows the gap is widening for Black maternal morbidity. Medical Racism &  Medical Gaslighting 101: How nurses can spot implicit bias in real-time and the "fight languages" needed to advocate for patients.

In this episode of Skin Anarchy, Dr. Ekta Yadav sits down with Estella Benz, founder and CEO of Inference Beauty, to explore how data intelligence, ingredient transparency, and AI personalization are reshaping the future of skincare. What began as Estella's frustration with confusing ingredient lists and overwhelming product choices evolved into a powerful technology platform designed to decode beauty — not through trends, but through truth.Estella shares how Inference Beauty translates complex INCI labels into language consumers can understand, offering not just definitions but context: why an ingredient is used, what it does, and how it behaves on real skin. In an era dominated by fear-based “clean beauty” rhetoric, her mission is to bring clarity back to the consumer. “People don't need scare tactics,” she says. “They need understanding.”Through structured data, AI, and environmental analytics, Inference Beauty creates intelligent, personalized product recommendations based on climate, sensitivities, ethical preferences, and biological needs — shifting beauty away from one-size-fits-all marketing into a world built “for each.”As e-commerce grows, Estella envisions dynamic digital experiences where product pages adapt to each user, bridging the long-standing gap between what brands believe they're communicating and what consumers actually understand. Yet even as she champions AI, she emphasizes the irreplaceable role of human expertise — especially for active, medical-grade, or prescriptive products.Tune in to hear how Estella Benz is building the next generation of beauty intelligence — where transparency, personalization, and smart data come together to redefine how we discover and trust skincare.Learn more about Inference Beauty on their website and social media!CHAPTERS:0:27 – Introduction & Guest Welcome1:27 – Estella's Background & Early Inspiration2:31 – The Birth of Inference Beauty4:06 – Market Misconceptions & The Female Consumer Gap5:45 – How Personalization Transforms Shopping6:56 – Ingredient Data, Ethics & Environmental Impact10:05 – Transparency, Clean Beauty & Consumer Education16:36 – The Role of AI in Personalized Beauty23:06 – The Future of Tech, Data & Human Touch in BeautyPlease fill out this survey to give us feedback on the show!Don't forget to subscribe to Skin Anarchy on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, or your preferred platform.Reach out to us through email with any questions.Sign up for our newsletter!Shop all our episodes and products mentioned through our ShopMy Shelf!*This is a paid collaboration Hosted on Acast.

In this episode, I sit down with Sarah E. Hill, PhD, whose research has completely changed the way I think about hormones and how they shape our day to day lives. I wanted to bring her on because she has a gift for taking complex science and turning it into tools that actually make sense in real life.

We also touch on practical ways to eat, train, and live in sync with your cycle, plus simple changes that can make everything from PMS to performance feel more manageable. It is a conversation that blends science with everyday life in a way that feels grounding and empowering. → Leave Us A Voice Message!Topics Discussed: → How do hormones influence mood throughout the cycle?→ What are the real effects of hormonal birth control?→ How can women train and eat in sync with their cycle?→ What helps reduce PMS and monthly cravings?→ How do hormones impact relationships and intimacy?Sponsored By: → Be Well By Kelly Protein Powder & Essentials | Get $10 off your order with PODCAST10 at https://bewellbykelly.com.→ AG1 | Head to https://drinkag1.com/bewell to get a FREE Welcome Kit with the flavor of your choice that includes a 30 day supply of AGZ and a FREE frother.→ Hiya Health | Get 50% off your first order at https://HiyaHealth.com/Kelly and give your kids the full-body nourishment they need to grow into healthy, happy adults.→ WeNatal | You can use my link, https://wenatal.com/kelly, with any subscription order, to get a free one month supply of WeNatal's Omega DHA+ Fish Oil valued at 35 dollars.Timestamps: → 00:00:00 - Introduction → 00:03:43 - Hormones explained→ 00:08:35 - Signs of high estrogen→ 00:13:23 - Sex drive and ovulation basics→ 00:20:02 - Birth control and hormone effects→ 00:24:54 - Progesterone support→ 00:28:09 - Hormone education tips→ 00:32:30 - Building hormonal resilience→ 00:38:06 - Luteal phase and sensitivity→ 00:42:28 - Why ovulation fails→ 00:45:47 - Fertility tips and stress relief→ 00:50:47 - Cycling with the moon→ 00:55:27 - Sleep and hormone balance→ 00:58:39 - Nutrition for your cycle→ 01:05:27 - Menstruation education→ 01:08:54 - Training with your cycle→ 01:12:12 - Vagal nerve supportFurther Listening: → 38.

In today's episode, we're talking with Becky Diaz - a personal trainer, nutritionist, and placenta encapsulator who used fitness and nutrition to help prepare for her most recent home birth.  Becky and her husband Hugo live in Los Angeles, California and have 3 children: Riley, Julian and River. Her first was born in a hospital, where she experienced an epidural and pitocin. For babies 2 and 3, they decided to go with home birth. Becky was really interested in how she could use the experiences of pregnancy and birth to really push herself and learn about herself more. In our conversation, we talk a lot about the preparation she did for her third birth for baby River. This pregnancy involved a lot more mental work - being more mindful and not just muscling through the birth. This was more about trust and surrender to the process. Becky utilized techniques like meditation to support her. She used a visualization practice of seeing the sensations as waves crashing and washing away, rather than a painful contraction. Birth for her was incredibly spiritual, and she says it was the most meditative she's ever felt.  Becky is a beautiful examples of knowing yourself, tapping into that and using it to help you prepare for such an incredible experience like birth is. Another key piece of advice from her that we totally agree with: “Don't listen to someone else's horror story.” In other words, be mindful of the material you take in during pregnancy and birth preparation. It can really make an impact.  Links From This Episode Becky's Instagram: ⁠⁠https://www.instagram.com/beckydiazfit/⁠⁠ Becky's website: ⁠⁠http://beckydiazfitness.blogspot.com/⁠⁠ Connect With Us Website: https://diahpodcast.com/ YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@diahpodcast Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/doingitathome/ Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/diahpodcast TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@doingitathome Merch: https://doingitathome.dashery.com/ Our Book: https://amzn.to/45Sxyr1 Support DIAH: https://www.paypal.com/donate/?hosted_button_id=KA3QQRRU58VPL Check Out Our Partners: Needed: https://needed.sjv.io/XY3903 - use code DIAH to get 20% off your first, one-time order Learn more about your ad choices.

"I wish they would be less afraid... Instead of having health care, we have health scare. The things that make the baby usually help the baby come out. And if you didn't make the baby that way, the things with someone you love during the process of having the baby can really bring you from a place of fright to a place of delight.." —Theresa Lasbrey Peters "Pleasurable birth is when we accept the pain, accept the hardship of birth, but we shift our focus to pleasure and joy and to the sacredness that we can experience." —Bettina Zagoni "These need to become like natural language— orgasmic birth and sexuality and stuff like that— starting with us as healthcare providers, and then to the mothers and to the grandmothers and to all the people around. We need to start doing that." —Alejandra Lozano   Ep 166 Description:  Parents and providers are starting to question why pleasure is missing from childbirth education and care. Many people want a birth that feels safe, connected, and aligned with how the body actually works. This episode offers a clear look at how pleasure, intimacy, and trust can shift fear-based systems and restore human-centered care. Theresa Lasbrey Peters, Bettina Zagoni, and Alejandra Lozano share how discovering the science and practice of pleasure changed their work and the families they serve. Their accounts show how small changes in language, touch, and expectation lead to calmer births and deeper bonding. Tap play to hear practical ideas that can change how you prepare for birth and support others during labor. Topics inside: • What a pleasurable birth looks like in real practice • Why pleasure is a valid tool for coping with pain • The benefits of slow midwifery and intentional environment • Provider fears that limit physiological birth and how to address them • Training pathways and community support for practitioners • Concrete techniques partners and caregivers can use today   Connect with Debra!

On this episode of Legal Nurse Podcast, we break from tradition with a gripping, true story recorded live at the Attorney's Resource Conference. Host Pat Iyer teams up with veteran trial attorney Sam Davis to unravel the devastating events surrounding a catastrophic birth injury case that changed the lives of an entire family. From the first moments in the delivery room to the complexities of litigation, listeners are taken deep inside a world where every second counts and small errors have consequences. Together, Pat Iyer and Sam Davis walk us through the harrowing ordeal faced by Estefania, a young mother left with an anoxic brain injury after what should have been a routine birth. You'll hear about the frantic timeline—the missed alarms, the misplaced medications, staff unprepared for crisis—and the systemic hospital failures that set the stage for tragedy. But the episode doesn't stop in the delivery room: it goes on to chart the painstaking legal and medical investigation that followed, revealing how records went missing, staff were reluctant to speak out, and a notorious anesthesiologist's history of misconduct came to light. This episode is not just the story of a single case—it's a powerful look at how legal nurse consultants and determined attorneys can expose medical cover-ups, seek justice for vulnerable patients, and work to change broken systems. What you'll learn in this episode on Unraveling a Catastrophic Birth Injury: Inside a Four-Year Legal and Medical Battle: Here's what you'll get from this podcast. What events led to the catastrophic birth injury case involving Estefania, and what went wrong during her emergency C-section? How did expert testimony and forensic analysis help unravel the timeline and causes of Estefania's cardiac arrest and subsequent brain injury? What roles did hospital personnel—nurses, anesthesiologists, and physicians—play during the code, and how did systemic failures contribute to the tragic outcome? How did missing, altered, and destroyed medical records complicate the legal battle, and what strategies did Sam Davis and Pat Iyer use to expose these discrepancies? What broader issues in hospital management, credentialing, and risk oversight does this case reveal, and what implications does it have for future medical malpractice litigation?

In this episode Gary Mansfield speaks to James Payne (@GreatArtExplained) James Payne is a writer, curator and YouTuber, known for demystifying art via his popular YouTube channel Great Art Explained. His newly released book, Great Art Explained: The Stories Behind the World's Greatest Masterpieces, brings that same clarity to the printed page. It explores 30 iconic works — from Botticelli's Birth of Venus to Monet's Water Lilies and Georgia O'Keeffe's Jimson Weed — unpacking not only their visual features but also the artists' lives and social context. Payne's style is refreshingly jargon-free: he explains what makes each piece “great” through clear storytelling and insight. Stephen Fry has called the book “an instant classic.” For more information on the Great Art Explained: The Stories Behind the World's Greatest Masterpieces go towww.welbooks.co.uk/shop/p/great-art-explained-the-stories-behind-the-worlds-greatest-masterpieces-by-james-payne-signed To Support this podcast from as little as £3 per month: www.patreon/ministryofarts For full line up of confirmed artists go to www.ministryofarts.co.ukEmail: ministryofartsorg@gmail.comSocial Media: @ministryofartsorg Hosted on Acast.

My guest today is Miki Dedijer, a writer, ecologist, and mentor devoted to the ancestral arts of belonging, fatherhood, and grassroots initiation.In our conversation, Miki invites us to look at the crisis facing young men and the absence of meaningful adulthood in our time. He speaks to the ecological and emotional consequences of failing to initiate the young, how untempered fire in boys becomes turmoil in families, and how communities have lost their memory of what it means to guide the next generation.Together we explore initiation not as an event, but a cultural responsibility. Miki shares how rites of passage serve life itself, how they awaken responsibility in parents and mentors, and how inviting others to help mature a child becomes its own act of initiation. We touch on the longing that erupts when boys are unmet, the loneliness of a culture without elders, and the courage required to guide a child into a larger story.Miki reminds us that initiation is not about control. It is about stewarding a young man's genius back into the world. It is a return to the village, a remembering of our place in the weave of life, and an invitation to rebuild the cultural vessels that once shaped humans capable of serving a cosmos greater than ourselves.Register for an upcoming webinar: FROM SCREENS TO SOUL: Raising Embodied Young Men (Dec 2)You'll learn how to help steward your sons toward this deeper connection — how to anchor them in their bodies, nurture their love of the living world, and prepare them for future relationships that are grounded, heartfelt, and capable of holding real intimacy. This webinar offers parents and mentors a way to guide boys toward a young manhood shaped not by algorithms, but by aliveness.LINKS * Miki's Official WebsiteSHOW NOTES* 00:09 Miki describes where he is and the seasonal mood on the west coast of Sweden.* 02:52 His early work as an environmental journalist and the shift toward quieter, place-based stories.* 04:38 Moving from grand narratives of saving the world into intimate, relational, land-rooted life.* 12:28 The pine tree story and how tending the land taught him the meaning of belonging.* 17:04 Entering fatherhood later in life and wanting his sons to grow up rooted in place.* 18:24 Burnout as a turning point that reopened childhood vitality and led to cultural mentorship.* 21:39 The guiding question: how do we steward children well through life's stages?* 24:07 Recognizing and honoring childhood stages long before adolescence arrives.* 26:32 Why initiating teenagers may be the most ecologically responsible act we can take.* 27:15 How asking others to help mature a child initiates the adults themselves.* 31:05 What happens when a culture fails to initiate its boys.* 37:15 The tensions Miki encountered guiding his own sons and how conflict became tempering.* 54:04 Why integration after a rite of passage is essential for families and community.ADDITIONAL EPISODES This is a public episode.

And we thought they were only connected by wearing LAD caps. But no, Kiké Hernandez apologies to all of Puerto Rico from his hospital bed for having to miss the WBC due to shoulder surgery. Just last week his twin, Prince Harry, was apologizing to all of Canada. PCA and Corbs join Team USA and dear young Pete makes Mr. Judge feel his age. Welcome to little outlaw super athlete child, Josie James Swanson. Turns out our terrible predictions were only a little terrible – we aced Cy Young and the NL! The movement to keep LAD from visiting the White House gains traction, and the aerial tramway to the stadium loses some. The Trop is back and we want to know if the ceiling will still be “where the hell is the ball white.”Baseball United is back, including Barry Larkin Field outside of Dubai, more home grown talent, and some questionable rule changes. The Police Blotter is all sports betting because it is really hitting a new level and we don't miss the irony of the GMs meeting in a casino last week. Preliminary labor talks give Patti her second favorite quote of the week. We crosstrain with the fascist in chief's visit to the Commanders vs Lions game last week and more happily with the PWHL's Takeover Tour. Stay tuned – the WPBL's draft is coming up!We say, “You manifested the orangeness,” “That was putting the camel before the horse,” and, “You could have funded healthcare with that flyover.” Fight the man, send your game balls to Meredith, get boosted, and find us on Bluesky @ncibpodcast, on Facebook @nocryinginbball, Instagram @nocryinginbball and on the Interweb at nocryinginbball.com.

RUNDOWN   We're in a foul mood after the Seahawks' ugly loss to the Rams, unpacking Sam Darnold's four-interception stinker, the looming backlash from "I told you so" Darnold haters, and the gut-punch of Gray Zabel's injury. Mitch unleashes a full-on rant about Greg Olsen's broadcast style ("constant blabber"), while Scott notes how different the offense looks without Tory Horton on the field. The mood finally lifts with the news that the Mariners have locked up Josh Naylor on a five-year extension, giving Seattle fans a much-needed jolt of optimism. And then some baseball outrage: Cal Raleigh narrowly finishes second in AL MVP to Aaron Judge. Mitch is joined by Brady Henderson (ESPN) and Jacson Bevens (Cigar Thoughts) to break down the Seahawks' 21–19 loss to the Rams — a game that somehow stayed close despite four interceptions from Sam Darnold and a red-zone drought. Brady calls it Darnold's first true "stinker" as a Seahawk, noting that none of the INTs were flukes, while Jacson credits a defense that "played its balls off" despite brutal field position. The trio discuss the seriousness of rookie guard Gray Zabel's knee injury, the need for Kubiak to scheme around an unstable interior line, and Darnold's growing turnover trend (now 14 on the year). Mitch welcomes back CBS College Football Analyst Rick Neuheisel, presented by Taco Time Northwest, to unpack a chaotic Week 12 in college football — starting with Rick's victory lap on his perfectly predicted Penn State cover. From there, the guys dive into a jam-packed headline wheel: Lane Kiffin's status as the hottest name on the coaching carousel (and why Rick believes he'll land at Florida), Georgia's dominance over Texas, Oklahoma's big win in Tuscaloosa, Texas A&M's shocking 30–3 comeback, and the SEC's suddenly muddled playoff picture. Mitch revisits Episode Zero — the never-meant-to-be-public "exhibition game" that quietly launched Mitch Unfiltered back in 2018. What begins as a joke about their faux–"Fool in the Rain" theme song turns into a hilarious, chaotic retelling of the infamous team-bus-fire in Auburn, complete with blown tires, smoke pouring into the cabin, players stampeding into a ditch, and the bus erupting in flames seconds after everyone escaped.   GUESTS   Brady Henderson | Seahawks Insider, ESPN Jacson Bevens | Writer, Cigar Thoughts Rick Neuheisel | CBS College Football Analyst, Former Head Coach & Rose Bowl Champion Jason Hamilton | Former/Original Co-host of Mitch Unfiltered, UW Basketball Analyst   TABLE OF CONTENTS   0:00 | Four Picks, One Big Contract, and a Gordon Lightfoot Birthday — Episode 358 Runs the Emotional Gauntlet 15:05 | BEAT THE BOYS - Register at MitchUnfiltered.com 20:29 | Bad Clock, Bad Knees, and Bad Ballots: Seahawks Fall Short While Cal Raleigh Gets Robbed in the AL MVP Race 37:09 | GUEST: Seahawks No-Table; Four Picks, One Chance: Seahawks Fall to Rams but Defense Shines Bright 55:28 | GUEST: Rick Neuheisel; Lane Kiffin Heat Check, SEC Bedlam & 300-Yard Burrito Winners — Neuheisel Goes Deep 1:20:56 | GUEST: Jason Hamilton EPISODE ZERO | Flashback | Before Episode 1: The Bus Fire, the Scentsy Pooh Era, and the Birth of Mitch Unfiltered 1:41:17 | Other Stuff Segment: Julio Rodríguez finishes 6th in AL MVP voting and makes first-team All-MLB, Julio's slow first half vs red-hot second half and fans overreacting, Julio's contract MVP/top-10 voting escalators, Shohei Ohtani's unanimous NL MVP and historic MVP + championship combo, Clippers fan jukes arena security during game and heckle about Clippers' defense, No. 1 national hoops recruit Tyran Stokes transferring to Rainier Beach High School, BYU's Kennard Davis Jr arrested on suspicion of DUI near campus, Patrick Beverley arrested on family-assault charge in Texas, Percy Harvin's Gainesville home catching fire (no serious injuries reported), United Airlines flight attendant found 10x over in-flight alcohol limit on SFO–London route, Whitesnake frontman David Coverdale announcing retirement, Bin Laden raid SEAL Robert O'Neill suing two podcasters for $25 million over "lied about the shot" claims RIPs: Kenny Easley – Seahawks Hall of Fame safety, "The Enforcer."

The Private Eye has long been a fixture of popular culture - from Sherlock Holmes, to Philip Marlowe, to Jessica Fletcher. But behind the fictional detectives lies a real figure whose influence shaped the very idea of the private investigator: Allan Pinkerton. After fleeing Scotland for the US under murky circumstances in the mid-1800s, he reinvented himself as a crime fighter and founded America's first detective agency. Soon, his name was everywhere. His agents guarded trains, infiltrated gangs, and uncovered a plot to kill a president.   But how did a poor Scottish immigrant build a private army more powerful than the police? How did his methodologies shape surveillance, and influence the foundations of the FBI? And what happened when his agents went head-to-head with legendary outlaws like Jesse James or Butch Cassidy and the Sundance Kid? This is a Short History Of The Pinkerton Detective Agency. A Noiser podcast production. Hosted by John Hopkins. With thanks to Rhodri Jeffreys-Jones, a historian, and author of Allan Pinkerton, America's Legendary Detective and the Birth of Private Security.
