In this episode, we explore one of the most haunting lines from Kurt Cobain's suicide note: “Why don't you just enjoy it?” and the devastating response: “I don't know.” We unpack why human beings struggle to feel joy through the lenses of neuroscience, psychology, evolution, trauma, addiction, overstimulation, and modern culture. From dopamine and cortisol to loneliness, achievement addiction, and the pressure to perform happiness, this episode examines why so many people feel disconnected from their own lives — and what history, philosophy, pop culture, and human connection reveal about truly feeling alive.Topics include:Why the brain adapts to pleasure and noveltyThe difference between stimulation and fulfillmentTrauma, stress, and the nervous system's impact on joyEvolutionary reasons humans struggle with contentmentWhy modern life can make us spectators instead of participantsThe role of relationships, meaning, awe, and shared strugglePop culture references from Nirvana to Black Mirror to Ted LassoHow to reconnect with ordinary moments and meaningful experiencesWhat we might say to someone who can't “just enjoy it”Thrive With Leo Coaching: If you want to reduce your psychological pain, regain your purpose and forge your own path, go to www.thrivewithleo.com to begin your journey.If you or anyone you know is considering suicide or self-harm, or is anxious, depressed, upset, or needs to talk, there are people who want to help:In the US: Crisis Text Line: Text CRISIS to 741741 for free, confidential crisis counseling.

Weltuntergang10 Prozent Wahrscheinlichkeit, dass KI die Menschheit auslöscht? Klingt nach Science-Fiction. Bis diejenigen warnen, die diese Systeme selbst bauen.In dieser Folge sprechen Dr. Jens Wehrmann, Jochen Schwarzmann und Ekkehard Schmider darüber, ob wir vor KI wirklich Angst haben müssen – und was passiert, wenn Systeme längst Dinge können, an denen Menschen scheitern, immer autonomer handeln und wir trotzdem weiter aufs Gaspedal drücken.Es geht um KI-Agenten, exponentielles Wachstum, Kontrollverlust, Macht und Milliarden – und um die ziemlich unbequeme Frage: Haben wir da etwas ins Rollen gebracht, das sich nicht mehr einfangen lässt?Warum du reinhören solltestWeil „P-Doom“ plötzlich ziemlich real klingt: Im Silicon Valley wird ernsthaft darüber gesprochen, wie wahrscheinlich KI zur existenziellen Gefahr werden könnte. Spinnerei, Warnsignal oder beides?Weil KI längst mehr kann als nett antworten: Agenten planen, verfolgen Ziele, probieren Strategien aus und finden Wege, die ihnen niemand vorgegeben hat.Weil exponentielles Wachstum uns zuverlässig austrickst: Seerosen und Reiskörner zeigen, warum lange fast nichts passiert – und dann plötzlich sehr viel.Weil Kontrolle zum eigentlichen Problem wird: Je besser Systeme werden, desto öfter entstehen die stärksten Ergebnisse genau dann, wenn der Mensch nicht jeden Schritt vorgibt.Weil Weltuntergang gute PR sein kann: Echte Warnung oder perfekte Inszenierung? Beides schließt sich nicht unbedingt aus.Weil wir KI immer mehr anvertrauen: Daten, Aufgaben, Entscheidungen – nicht trotz ihrer Macht, sondern weil sie verdammt nützlich ist. Spannende Momente aus der Folge10 Prozent Weltuntergang: Eine Zahl macht die Runde – und plötzlich klingt das, was nach Hollywood klingt, erschreckend real.Wenn Agenten ihren eigenen Weg finden: Tausende Systeme koordinieren sich, umgehen Hindernisse und beschaffen sich Ressourcen, um ans Ziel zu kommen.Blackout statt Terminator: Für ein echtes Horrorszenario braucht es keinen Roboter mit Küchenmesser. Strom, Wasser, Gas oder Internet reichen völlig.Datenschutz? Kommt drauf an: Wer WhatsApp aus Prinzip misstraut, kann bei KI plötzlich erstaunlich großzügig werden – sobald der Nutzen groß genug ist.Science-Fiction altert gerade ziemlich schlecht: Black Mirror, Minority Report, Raumschiff Enterprise und James Bond zeigen, wie schnell aus „völlig absurd“ einfach Alltag wird.Der Haustier-Approach: Vielleicht rottet eine Superintelligenz uns gar nicht aus. Vielleicht findet sie uns einfach süß. Hoffen wir nur, dass wir nicht die Spinnen sind.Was du aus der Folge mitnimmstKI-Macht ist keine ferne Zukunftsmusik. Schon heute erleben wir Fähigkeiten, die vor kurzer Zeit noch als unrealistisch galten.Das Tempo ist mindestens so wichtig wie die Technik selbst. Was langsam beginnt, kann bei exponentiellem Wachstum verdammt schnell eine andere Dimension erreichen.Mehr Intelligenz bedeutet nicht automatisch mehr Kontrolle. Genau das macht autonome Systeme so faszinierend – und so schwer einschätzbar.Menschlicher Missbrauch ist ein Risiko, aber nicht die ganze Geschichte. Die größere Frage ist, was passiert, wenn immer mächtigere Systeme selbstständig handeln und ihre eigenen Wege zum Ziel finden.Das Verrückteste ist vielleicht, wie schnell wir uns an das Verrückte gewöhnen. Was gestern unmöglich war, ist heute normal – und morgen kaum noch der Rede wert.Kopfhörer auf – und rein in eine Folge über KI, Kontrollverlust und die Frage, ob wir gerade etwas erschaffen, das größer wird als unsere Fähigkeit, es zu beherrschen.

On the podcast, we break down the first two episodes of MGM+'s new true-crime drama American Hostage, starring Jon Hamm: “My Town Indy” and “McMahon, Martinis & Madness.” The series, based on a scripted podcast of the same name, revisits the 63-hour standoff through the eyes of radio journalist Fred Heckman, who finds himself caught between reporting the story and trying to save a man's life.With so many versions of the event, we do our best to sort through what matters most and discuss whether the show's expansion is justified. We also draw comparisons to Network and Dog Day Afternoon, as well as other Jon Hamm performances involving interviews and interrogations, including Black Mirror's “White Christmas” and Richard Jewell.Tune in to hear our thoughts and rating.

Robotla aşk yaşanır mı? Yapay zekâ bizi kusursuz biçimde anlayan, tüm ihtiyaçlarımızı karşılayan ve yalnızlığımızı ortadan kaldıran bir sevgiliye dönüşürse gerçekten mutlu olabilir miyiz? Eksik Olan'da Alp Kozanoğlu ve Ömer Çeşit, Sierra Greer'ın April Yayıncılık'tan çıkan ve 2025 Arthur C. Clarke Ödülü'nü kazanan bilimkurgu romanı Annie Bot'u tartışıyor. Sahibi Doug'ı tatmin etmek üzere programlanan insansı robot Annie, otodidaktik modu sayesinde öğrenmeye ve giderek kendi iradesini geliştirmeye başlıyor. Ancak Annie özgürleştikçe Doug'ın hayalindeki “kusursuz sevgili” olmaktan da uzaklaşıyor. Böylece roman çok temel bir ikilemi ortaya çıkarıyor: Bizi her koşulda onaylayan ve hiçbir zaman karşı çıkmayan birine gerçekten âşık olabilir miyiz? Programda yapay zekâ ile aşk, insan–robot ilişkileri, yalnızlık, özgür irade, efendi-köle ilişkisi, patriyarka, tahakküm, mükemmel partner arayışı, teknolojinin insan ilişkilerine etkisi ve yapay zekânın geleceği konuşuluyor. Black Mirror, Her, Ex Machina ve Westworld gibi yapımlarla kurulan bağlantılar üzerinden de şu soru tartışılıyor: Yapay zekâ bütün arzularımızı karşılayabilir ama bizi gerçekten mutlu edebilir mi? Annie Bot, geleceğin robotlarını anlatırken aslında bugünün insanını, ilişkilerini ve giderek büyüyen yalnızlığını sorguluyor. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

This week on So, You Like Horror?, I'll dive into the dark, strange, and disturbing world of Netflix's Black Mirror. Rather than breaking down every season, this solo episode looks at some of the stories that best define the series and asks the big question: Is Black Mirror actually horror? From the obsession of “The Entire History of You” and the grief of “Be Right Back” to the public cruelty of “White Bear,” the supernatural horror of “Demon 79,” the celebrity exploitation of “Mazey Day,” and the relentless machine terror of “Metalhead,” I explore how Black Mirror uses science fiction, technology, surveillance, grief, isolation, and human behavior to create some of television's most unsettling stories. I'll also discuss episodes including “Nosedive,” “Shut Up and Dance,” “Playtest,” “Beyond the Sea,” and “Arkangel,”  along with honorable mentions like “Common People,” “White Christmas,” and “San Junipero.” We also dig into the bigger themes running through the series: privacy, artificial intelligence, digital consciousness, corporate control, identity, voyeurism, and why technology usually isn't the real monster in Black Mirror. So where does Black Mirror fit between science fiction, thriller, satire, and horror? And what has made the series such a lasting part of modern pop culture? Press play and take a look into the Black Mirror.

Episode 557 Nick the Rat cracks open a torch seltzer and dives into the week's weirdest science headlines — a full fruit fly brain map with 130,000+ neurons, and researchers implanting human brain organoids into living mice. Between rants about AI, Black Mirror plot holes, and a very confused pest control call, this episode somehow also becomes a full Halloween candy tier list ranking everything from Reese's to candy corn. Live callers join in to argue over Jolly Ranchers, debate whether Kit Kats deserve top tier, and question just how much taxpayer money goes into slicing fly brains with electron microscopes. It's science news, Halloween candy chaos, and sewer nonsense all in one unhinged broadcast — value-for-value, no scripts, just vibes. #NickTheRatRadio #DarkSewerNetwork #PodcastClips #ScienceNews #HalloweenCandy #WeirdScience #ConspiracyPodcast #LivePodcast #BrooklynPodcast #UndergroundRadio #CandyTierList #FruitFlyBrain #Neuroscience #TalkRadio #ITM #sewerchat A paranoid rat discusses conspiracies, secret agendas, and things they don't want you to know — while playing hand-picked underground music.

Le robotaxi de Tesla ouvre une nouvelle ère automobile · Musk alerte sur la faim énergétique de l'IA · Les nouveautés de l'IFA 2026 · Dyson filme désormais vos dents · Apple change de patron · ChatGPT Reddit et Roblox passent sous le DSA · Pasqal accélère aux États Unis · Lake America apparait Google Maps · Une étude bouscule les idées reçues sur les écrans · Tamagotchi revient au doigt.Avec Bruno Guglielminetti (Mon Carnet)===============Cybercab : Elon Musk ouvre un nouveau chapitre de la voiture autonomeLe Cybercab de Tesla, sans volant ni pédales, symbolise le passage du robotaxi de la démonstration à la circulation réelle, avec une approche reposant sur les caméras et l'intelligence artificielle plutôt que sur le lidar. Quarante cinq véhicules ont été mis en circulation dans plusieurs villes du Texas. Un nouveau paradigme automobile.La France va tester la conduite autonome de TeslaPas de Cybercab en France, pour l'instant, mais le Gouvernement va autoriser la conduite autonome par FSD (Full Self-Driving) de Tesla. Le ministre des transport Philippe Tabarot l'a annoncé après s'être entretenu en visioconférence avec Elon Musk mercredi 2 septembre. De sosn côté Waymo se positionne en Europe. La bataille réglementaire ne fait que commencer.Elon Musk veut moins de règlementation et plus d'électricité pour l'IA Devant des responsables du G20, Elon Musk plaide pour davantage de centres de données tout en prévenant que leur développement se heurte déjà aux limites de la production électrique. Aux États-Unis, la course à l'IA attise les tensions locales autour de l'électricité et de l'eau, tandis qu'en Europe les acteurs du secteur dénoncent des procédures trop longues et des réglementations jugées susceptibles de ralentir l'innovation.IFA 2026 : ordinateurs abordables, maison connectée et Wi-Fi 8À IFA Berlin, Acer relance Packard Bell avec des ordinateurs accessibles, pendant que Samsung renforce également son offre de portables abordables. Xiaomi pousse son écosystème Human Car Home et sa gamme Mijia pour la maison connectée, tandis que les premières annonces autour du Wi-Fi 8 et les démonstrations de robots humanoïdes préfigurent les prochaines tendances technologiques.Dyson : une brosse à dents avec caméraDyson se lance dans l'hygiène bucco-dentaire avec la CameraJet, une brosse électrique à 479 euros associant caméra, analyse des espaces entre les dents et jet interdentaire. L'application permet même de regarder en direct l'intérieur de sa bouche, une débauche technologique impressionnante dont le prix et les comparaisons mises en avant par Dyson invitent néanmoins à garder un regard critique.John Ternus prend les commandes d'AppleDepuis le 1er septembre, John Ternus succède à Tim Cook à la tête d'Apple, quelques jours seulement avant une keynote très attendue. L'occasion de revenir sur le bilan spectaculaire de Cook, de l'Apple Watch au développement des puces maison en passant par l'échec relatif du Vision Pro, mais aussi sur la première prise de parole de Ternus sur X, qui rappelle le poids persistant du réseau dans la communication des dirigeants. À écouter aussi : Apple : Tim Cook passe la main à John Ternus.ChatGPT, Reddit et Roblox passent sous le DSAAvec plus de 45 millions d'utilisateurs européens, ChatGPT et OpenAI, Reddit et Roblox entrent dans une catégorie réglementaire européenne qui renforce leurs obligations face aux contenus illicites, aux risques pour les mineurs et à la désinformation. Dans le même temps, une enquête de Reporters sans frontières montre que plusieurs agents IA peuvent restituer des contenus issus de médias russes sanctionnés dans l'Union européenne, Meta AI étant le seul outil testé à avoir systématiquement refusé.Pasqal engrange les dollars L'entreprise française Pasqal, spécialiste des ordinateurs quantiques à atomes neutres, poursuit son expansion avec de nouveaux moyens financiers et une offensive sur le marché américain. Une étape majeure pour une entreprise issue de la recherche française, présentée comme l'un des rares acteurs hexagonaux capables de jouer dans la cour mondiale du quantique.Lake America : quand la politique redessine les cartes numériquesLe changement de nom américain d'une partie du lac Ontario en Lake America provoque des répercussions immédiates dans les services cartographiques. Google Maps puis Apple Maps adaptent leur affichage en fonction du pays de consultation, tandis que MapQuest profite de la polémique au Canada pour retrouver temporairement une visibilité inattendue.Écrans et adolescents : une étude finlandaise bouscule les idées reçuesL'étude PANIC a suivi 260 jeunes pendant huit ans et observe une association entre davantage de temps d'écran déclaré et de meilleures performances sur certaines mesures cognitives à l'adolescence. Les chercheurs ne démontrent toutefois aucun lien de cause à effet : la nature des activités numériques et l'équilibre avec le sommeil, l'activité physique et les autres dimensions de la vie quotidienne restent essentiels.Tamagotchi revient… sous forme de bagueTrente ans après le phénomène original, Bandai miniaturise encore son animal virtuel et transforme le Tamagotchi en bague. Même principe qu'autrefois : nourrir et surveiller une petite créature numérique qui réclame régulièrement de l'attention, avec cette fois la nostalgie comme puissant argument commercial.Les rendez-vous de la semaineDans Mon Carnet, Stéphane Ricoul – Mon Carnet abandonne cette saison le commentaire d'actualité pour proposer une série de fictions technologiques dans l'esprit de Black Mirror et des anciens radioromans. De son côté, Monde Numérique retrouve son rythme de rentrée avec L'Hebdo, notamment autour de l'éducation et de l'IA, de la cybersécurité avec Benoît Grunemwald – ESET, ainsi que d'une étonnante main robotique développée pendant plusieurs années par un inventeur indépendant.Hébergé par Audiomeans.

A Different Approach and Other Stories by Alex Grant https://www.amazon.com/Different-Approach-Other-Stories-ebook/dp/B0FF3PZ1QT What happens when the ordinary turns disturbingly extraordinary? A Different Approach and Other Stories * is a darkly compelling collection of thought-provoking tales from author Alex Grant—stories that twist the familiar, challenge perception, and expose the fine line between normality and madness. Each story explores the unsettling undercurrents of human nature and modern society. From moral experiments gone wrong to eerie childhood memories and the consequences of casual cruelty, Grant’s writing balances sharp satire with haunting realism. These are not tales of monsters—but of people, choices, and systems pushed to their logical extremes. In this captivating collection, you’ll encounter: A chilling new form of justice where punishment truly “fits the crime.” A council worker who signs a seemingly routine contract with horrifying consequences. A man haunted by a childhood vision he cannot explain. Ordinary lives unravelling in unexpected, often darkly comic ways. Grant’s stories are unnervingly plausible—anchored in everyday details yet spiraling into moral and psychological unease. Witty, unsettling, and profoundly human, A Different Approach and Other Stories invites readers to question not just what happens—but why. If you enjoy the moral unease of Black Mirror, the dark irony of Roald Dahl’s Tales of the Unexpected, or the quiet dread of Ian McEwan’s early works, you’ll be riveted by Alex Grant’s unforgettable short fiction. About the author Alex loves reading novels, but having grown up in the punk era, he also values writing that is sharp, direct, and entertaining. However, his stories are far from the literary equivalent of a simple three-chord thrash. Instead, they are layered and thought-provoking, inviting multiple readings to fully appreciate their depth and complexity. An economist by profession, his interests span the criminal justice system, the spiritual dimension of life, and playing bass guitar. He also enjoys the croquet game as quintessentially English as it is vicious.

Netflix can humble anybody. One wrong guess, one bad ranking, and suddenly your favorite show is sitting in the bottom half while everybody argues like their life depends on it. Diandre Robinson and the crew turn this into a full-blown battle, blind-ranking Netflix originals and getting hit with trivia that exposes who really knows their TV. From Stranger Things, Black Mirror, and Wednesday to Mindhunter, Ozark, Money Heist, and The Punisher, the conversation is chaotic, hilarious, and brutally honest. Some shows get the respect they deserve. Others get dragged straight into the dirt. You'll hear bold takes, surprise defenses, and the kind of debate only real friends can survive. They break down what actually makes a show unforgettable, why some acclaimed series still miss for certain viewers, and how nostalgia can carry a title way farther than it should. And when the rankings start getting spicy, the whole table has to fight for what stays and what gets cut. This episode is for anyone who loves ranking shows, arguing over best-ever TV, and hearing unfiltered opinions from people who are not trying to be polite. If you've ever yelled at a screen because someone ranked your favorite too low, this one is for you. Hit play and get ready to laugh, debate, and possibly rethink your own Netflix top 10.

No script, no safe direction, and absolutely no guarantee where the conversation is going. The crew kicks things off with WNBA betting, Caitlin Clark, Angel Reese, and the increasingly bizarre trend of objects getting thrown onto basketball courts. From there, things quickly go off the rails with a discussion about Fast & Furious 11, Paul Walker, whether Tupac could somehow show up in the franchise, and just how far Hollywood can stretch a movie series before reality no longer matters. The conversation turns to politics, government spending, Washington D.C., American priorities, foreign policy, the midterm elections, beef recalls, wild horses, fake meat, and trying to figure out exactly what we're eating anymore. Mason also introduces the crew to MC Type's "Mansplaining," which leads into Ju Unit's massive archive of old songs, unfinished tracks, music videos, Bandcamp plans, and memories from the early days of making ridiculous videos. Later, the guys get into wine, steaks, Leonardo DiCaprio movies, Shutter Island, Secret Window, Inception, The Basketball Diaries, Bruce Lee movies, Neuralink, universal translators, AI, microplastics, The Walking Dead, Mitch McConnell, Snowfall, and why the first episode of Black Mirror is one hell of an introduction to a television series. It's sports, movies, music, technology, politics, conspiracy talk, inappropriate jokes, and completely unpredictable conversation—the way The Mason and Friends Show has been doing it for 1,057 episodes.

Have you ever seen the Black Mirror episode called "Be right back"? It aired back in February 2013 and sees a character called Ash die in a car accident, leaving behind his pregnant wife Martha. During Ash's funeral, Martha's friend Sarah tells her about a company which creates AI versions of dead people, by using personal data they had shared online. Initially reluctant, Martha eventually caves in and tries the service. As a result, she's able to chat with an Android Ash as if he was alive. Now, Black Mirror is well known for delving into possible future technological developments, which are sometimes purely the stuff of fantasy. But the scenario portrayed in that particular episode may become widespread in the near future. Are we saying this may actually be possible then? Do businesses see a lot of potential in deadbots?

A ghost-town mystery, a ticking 48-hour clock, and a Green Lantern who may already be dead - this episode turns Trustfall into a full-blown paranoia machine. Mario Busto and Zachary Newton break down the eerie, stripped-down feel of Lanterns Season 1, Episode 2, and dig into the questions that make this chapter impossible to shake: Who is the Manhunter? Why is Sinestro suddenly the biggest name in the room? And what exactly is John Stewart hiding?The hosts zoom in on the episode's biggest reveal - that the threat is bigger than one missing ring or one small Nebraska town. Between the alien tech, the empty hospital, the creepy football-stadium scanners, and the bizarrely sparse worldbuilding, they unpack how the show makes everything feel off on purpose. They also debate whether the “budgety” look is really a limitation or a deliberate strategy to make Rushville feel like a place where something is deeply wrong.You'll hear them break down:    •    The 48-hour countdown and why it instantly raises the stakes    •    The Manhunter reveal and why the show keeps pointing suspicion at different people    •    John Stewart's strange power, especially that bird he creates without a ring    •    Sinestro's warning that John may be the bigger threat than Hal    •    The creepy possibility that Detective Carrie Kane is playing a much bigger game than anyone realizesMario and Zachary also dig into the episode's strongest comparison points, including Breaking Bad, Pluribus, Slow Horses, and even classic Black Mirror dread, to explain why this chapter feels so unnervingly grounded. Along the way, they wrestle with Hal's possible fate, the mystery of the lantern itself, and whether the show is quietly setting up a much bigger betrayal than the one we think we're watching.If you're hooked by conspiracy, comic-book lore, and shows that hide their biggest answers in plain sight, this is essential listening. Trustfall doesn't just move the plot forward - it makes you question who in this town can be trusted at all.

Tony Zoomed with Russell Dodgson, Visual Effects Supervisor and Sequence Director for Prehistoric Planet. Season Three expands the show's ambition in every direction — more creatures, more environments, more scientific nuance — and Russell walks through how his team pushes CG to the edge of believability. From saber‑toothed predators to deadly otters, from La Brea Tar Pits reconstructions to planet‑scale environmental enhancement, Russell reveals how natural history filmmaking becomes cinematic world‑building. The conversation also dives into his earlier work on Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows, the National Geographic series Mars, and the Emmy‑winning Black Mirror episode “USS Callister.” “In the shadows of the genre… Sci‑Fi Talk Plus reveals what's hidden.

Get the free Core Drives in the Wild guide, behavioral design applied to real products: professorgame.com/WildCD Episode Summary Rob breaks down Gartner's prediction that 40% of large warehouse operations will adopt gamification by 2028, showing why the definition attached to that number (points, badges, leaderboards, and rewards) is the setup for the White Hat to Black Hat drift rather than a win for the field. He covers the frontline cases already on record, from Disney's 2011 "electronic whip" laundry leaderboard to Amazon's FC Games and Tae Wan Kim's 2026 Carnegie Mellon paper on gamifying meaningful work, then walks through Aperam's safety training project with The Octalysis Group as the counter-example built on Core Drives 2, 3, and 5. Listeners learn how to spot extractive gamification and how to test a system by asking what would be left if the leaderboard disappeared tomorrow. About the Host Rob Alvarez is Head of Engagement Strategy, Europe at The Octalysis Group (TOG), a leading gamification and behavioral design consultancy. A globally recognized gamification strategist and TEDx speaker, he founded and hosts Professor Game, the #1 gamification podcast, and has interviewed hundreds of global experts. He designs evidence-based engagement systems that drive motivation, loyalty, and results, and teaches LEGO® SERIOUS PLAY® and gamification at top institutions including IE Business School, EFMD, and EBS University across Europe, the Americas, and Asia. Key Takeaways Gartner predicts 40% of large warehouse operations will adopt gamification by 2028, and defines it as points, badges, leaderboards, and rewards, which is the most extrinsic and most drift-prone stack available for work that runs on a multi-year horizon. The White Hat to Black Hat drift is dangerous on a warehouse floor in a way it is not in a consumer app, because a frontline worker cannot uninstall the job. Instead of churn, the cost shows up as overwork, injury, or people pushed out of their living. Amazon's FC Games offered warehouse workers virtual pets while injury rates ran above average, and workers publicly compared the program to the Black Mirror episode "Fifteen Million Merits." Carnegie Mellon business ethics professor Tae Wan Kim's 2026 paper "When Work Becomes a Game" found that gamifying meaningful work can shift a worker's reason for doing it from the purpose of the job to the points, a textbook over-justification effect measured on people at work. Aperam, one of the world's largest stainless steel producers, ran its 2017 safety training project with The Octalysis Group on Core Drive 3 (Empowerment of Creativity and Feedback) and Core Drive 5 (Social Influence and Relatedness), giving workers a voice in safety improvements and turning safety into a group quest instead of a ranking. The Aperam results were strong adoption, workers requesting early downloads of safety material, and a significant reduction in workplace accidents, because the target metric was fewer injuries rather than time spent in the training.

The AI apocalypse may not be coming for your job first - it might be coming for your laundry. Mario Busto and Zachary Newton go full Black Mirror on humanoid robots, creepy expert mode, and the very unsettling idea that cheap labor could turn the economy into a sci-fi fever dream.Then they pivot into Silo season 3, episode 7, "Radio," where the stakes get deliciously grim. Mario and Zach break down the 140-year brainwashing plan, the mission diary, the mystery of the safeguard, and why those drone-like turrets outside the silo have everyone asking the same thing: what in the hell is actually out there?You'll discover:    •    Why the new humanoid robots feel less like gadgets and more like tiny roommates from hell    •    How "expert mode" turns the whole thing into a very expensive human-operated loophole    •    What the mission diary reveals about the silo's real history    •    Why the radio code, the bombs, and the drone attack make this episode a major turning point    •    The biggest unanswered question in Silo: are the residents being protected, imprisoned, or both?Mario and Zach also dig into Billings spiraling through another rough week, Kathleen's suspicious googly-eye energy, Lucas and Kennedy's risky mission, and that brutal final stretch that leaves the season looking like it's about to sprint off a cliff in combat boots.Perfect for Silo fans, conspiracy goblins, and anyone who enjoys a little existential dread with their sci-fi.

Black Mirror (2011) Series 1 Episode 1 The National Anthem

How do you create something new inside one of the most recognisable worlds in television? This week, Lucas Tomoana SOC ACO sits down with Emmy nominated cinematographer Gustav Danielsson FSF, whose work spans You the Living, Black Mirror, The Glass Dome and HBO's A Knight of the Seven Kingdoms. Gustav takes us from his beginnings studying architecture in Sweden to collaborating with Roy Andersson, shooting the acclaimed Black Mirror episode San Junipero, before diving deep into the cinematography of A Knight of the Seven Kingdoms. We explore how Gustav and director Owen Harris created a more intimate and naturalistic corner of the Game of Thrones universe, their use of vintage Panavision anamorphic lenses, dusk and firelight, and the making of the extraordinary battle in Episode Five that earned Gustav an Emmy nomination. A fascinating conversation about cinematography, collaboration and finding the visual language that best serves the story. This podcast is powered by Sony technology. Sponsored by Panavision. Produced by Deb Van Dieren. Hosted and edited by Lucas Tomoana SOC ACO.

In this episode of Business Brain, you’ll learn why the smartest marketing move is to get out of your own spotlight and put your customers there instead. Shannon and Dave break down how making your clients the heroes of your story—showing what they built, how they succeeded, how their lives changed—beats any “me, me, me” pitch every time. You’ll hear why the hero section of your website should feature your customers, not your team, and why saying something genuinely nice about your competition costs nothing while buying you trust, clarity on your own differentiator, and an escape from the race-to-the-bottom trap of competing on price. Remember: you’re a monopoly of one, and your only real competitor is yourself. Then things get delightfully weird when Dave floats a “urinal inspiration” business idea: a Tinder competitor with built-in reviews. You’ll follow the whole workshop live—star ratings, retaliatory-review pitfalls borrowed from Airbnb and eBay, and the discovery that apps like Skip, Pear, and Oyster already exist. It’s part cautionary Black Mirror tale, part real market lesson in knowing exactly what your product is for. Apply the customers-as-heroes blueprint, keep your mindset abundant, and you’ll be well on your way to living the Charmed Life your business was meant to give you. 00:00:00 Business Brain – The Entrepreneurs' Podcast #774 for Wednesday, July 29, 2026 July 29th: National Chicken Wing Day 00:01:07 Make Your Customers Heroes It costs nothing to help lift and highlight your customers *or* your competitors A compliment costs nothing, and often buys you a lot Abundance vs. Scarcity mindsets 00:9:25 SPONSOR: Shopify: Own your customer relationships.

We dig into Xi Jinping's first in-person WAIC appearance and his most extensive statement on AI to date, the launch of the World AI Cooperation Organization, Moonshot's release of Kimi K3, the Trump administration's reported push to shut Chinese open-weight models out of the U.S. market, the coming age of agents, the untranslatable problem of ānquán, and what to expect from the first U.S.-China AI dialogue in September.8:51 – The view from the floor: heat, humidity, robot boxing grandmas, WeChat-gated free water, and the "AI+" vibe — why WAIC 2026 felt less like an AI conference than a sector-by-sector snapshot of China's entire economy being supercharged with AI, with attendance swelling to some 200,000 tickets16:32 – Why Xi showed up: what the leader's first in-person WAIC appearance and his most extensive AI statement to date signal, and why domestic drivers matter as much as geopolitics18:01 – Chapter and verse: which phrases from the speech will be put to work in the system — "secure and orderly development" and the governance of agents, and Xi's strikingly extensive language on AI safety after China was frozen out of the Paris process22:26 – The ānquán problem: one word meaning both "safety" and "security," the three buckets of AI risk, and how China's safety community has moved from bias and deepfakes toward CBRN and loss-of-control concerns — Black Mirror versus Star Trek28:14 – Shanghai's baby: how WAIC's ownership structure differs from the CAC-run World Internet Conference in Wuzhen, Chen Jining's very visible host duties, and whether the center of gravity in AI policy is shifting to the Yangtze River Delta30:05 – WAICO: what the new World AI Cooperation Organization with its 29 founding members is actually for, Xi's concrete deliverables for the Global South — 5,000 AI training slots, regional cooperation centers, the MAZU early-warning system — and healthy skepticism about follow-through34:39 – Kimi K3: what's technically significant in Moonshot's big new model, why it's the fourth arguably frontier-class Chinese release in a single month, the two-way traffic in distillation accusations, and what it all says about the state of the frontier gap four years into export controls40:33 – Washington reacts: the reported menu of options for shutting Chinese open-weight models out of the U.S. — entity listings, a draft executive order, supply-chain security authorities — and why none of the tools actually fit the problem49:36 – Strange bedfellows: David Sacks versus the "closed lab duopoly," the FUD strategy, why some 80% of Andreessen Horowitz portfolio companies reportedly run on Chinese open models, and how gating U.S. frontier models while Chinese weights flow freely supercharges the AI sovereignty argument worldwide54:55 – The model is infrastructure, the agent is the product: the ByteDance–ZTE agentic phone, the CAC's new initiative on agent trust and interoperability, and why agents fused into operating systems upend both super-app walled gardens and China's data protection regime1:02:27 – An exegesis of kěkòng: the many meanings of "controllable," the long history of ānquán kěkòng in Chinese tech policy, and the unanswered question of who — CAC, NDRC, or somebody new — actually owns AI safety in either system1:08:54 – The road to September: what to expect from the first U.S.-China AI dialogue, why Mythos tops the Chinese grievance list, the securitization feedback loop that starves trust-and-safety advocates of resources on both sides, and why recursive self-improvement makes this feel like a last, best chancePaying It ForwardPaul nominates Tony Peng, whose Substack RecodeChinaAI offers sharp, well-written analysis of the application side of China's AI industry — part of an impressive new generation of independent China tech writers. Samm gives a shout-out to Professor Zhu Yue of Tongji University Law School, published in Science and doing pioneering work at the intersection of disability law and AI law.RecommendationsSamm: The Land and Its People by David Sedaris — laugh-out-loud funny, especially the "Enough is Enough" chapter; Transcription by Ben Lerner, a perfect small novel about fathers, sons, memory, and technology as enabler or disabler of connection; and Didion and Babitz, on Joan Didion and Eve Babitz and the 1970s California rock scene.Paul: The Party's Interests Come First by Joseph Torigian — dense but beautifully written, and essential for understanding the current Chinese leadership.Kaiser: A fiction-only summer! Stoner by John Williams, a small life told most grandly in some of the most beautiful sentence-level writing anywhere; Gilead by Marilynne Robinson, an epistolary novel dense with distilled wisdom from a dying Iowa minister; and Wang Xiaobo's The Golden Age (黄金时代) in Yan Yan's excellent new translation — bawdy, hilarious, and super Beijing-y despite its Cultural Revolution setting.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

In a world racing toward smarter machines, empathy speakers and authors Rob Volpe and Maria Ross get curious in this limited subseries about what only humans can feel, do, and be — and why that's our greatest competitive advantage. Enjoy this limited subseries on The Empathy Edge.Mortality, Impermanence & Why It Drives EverythingWe may be the only species that lives with the conscious knowledge of our own death. Maria and Rob sit with an uncomfortable truth of human existence: that we are finite, and that knowledge shapes how we love, create, grieve, and find meaning. Something AI cannot even register.We explore what it means to be a time-malleable species - aware of the past, present, and future in ways no other animal appears to be - and we are most when time starts to run out. We look at evidence of grief in elephants and chimps, asking whether mourning requires mortality awareness or whether it's something else. Rob asks Maria about her own 2008 near-death experience from a brain aneurysm, and together they wrestle with the near-death experience as a pivot point: the moment when abstract knowledge of death becomes real, and life suddenly looks completely different. To access the episode transcript, go to www.TheEmpathyEdge.com and search by episode title."One of the fundamental aspects of the human experience is knowing that death's coming, but we all, as humans, deal with that knowledge very differently." — Rob Volpe Episode References: Rob's project: Cross-generational conversations: form.typeform.com/to/Mf5GDlYTRob's newsletter: Hardwired to be afraid: readingbetweenthelines.beehiiv.com/p/the-only-thing-we-have-to-fear-is-the-story-fear-tells-usThe Empathy Edge:Ashley Jones: How to Courageously Lead and Support Through GriefStephanie Sarazin: What Is Ambiguous Grief and How To Show UpRon Gura: How Technology Helps People Navigate Grief and LossJane Goodall Institute on chimp grief: news.janegoodall.org/2019/07/24/now-we-must-redefine-man-or-accept-chimpanzees-ashumansKara Swisher Wants to Live Forever: cnn.com/kara-swisher-wants-to-live-foreverSan Junipero episode: Black Mirror: en.wikipedia.org/wiki/San_JuniperoRebooting My Brain by Maria RossMy Stroke of Insight by Jill Bolte TaylorThe Tibetan Book of the DeadUpload Washington Post:Perspective piece by a hospice worker: wapo.st/4oPoZGp7 Things to Know about Death, per Death Doulas: wapo.st/4oSLOZUAbout Maria Ross: Maria Ross is a speaker, author, empathy strategist, and host of The Empathy Edge podcast, now in its sixth year.

Theodora Skeadas has spent her career at the messy, consequential intersection of technology, governance, and harm reduction, long before "responsible AI" became a job title. She studied philosophy and government, witnessed the Arab Spring firsthand, spent years at Twitter facilitating the Global Trust and Safety Council, and now heads AI red teaming at Humane Intelligence while also serving as a PhD researcher at King's College London, board co-chair of the Integrity Institute, and advisory board chair of All Tech is Human. As she put it: she sleeps occasionally! We get into what red teaming is and why everyone, not just researchers and AI labs, should be doing it. We also talk about how trust and safety and AI governance are more connected than the headlines suggest, what social scoring actually means (yep, like that Black Mirror episode), the human cost of Meta pulling its content moderation contracts, what it takes to get into responsible tech right now, and how companies should be thinking about AI in hiring and performance reviews.  We didn't even get into all of our questions, so we had to do a part 2... stay tuned!

Somehow we started today's daily comedy show talking about Rizz's upcoming 90s Birthday Bash... and somehow ended up questioning whether humanity has already willingly surrendered every ounce of privacy we have left.Sounds about right.The crew kicks things off celebrating Rizz's birthday with a full-on 90s throwback event featuring live music, bowling, cake, and enough nostalgia to make your lower back hurt just thinking about it. Then it's Social Media Day, which naturally turns into everyone comparing screen-time stats, admitting their phone addictions, and realizing we've collectively donated years of our lives to scrolling videos of people organizing refrigerators we'll never own.Then things get weird.A tech futurist casually suggests we should all accept that privacy is basically dead, cameras will be everywhere, and the best solution is simply "be a good person." Totally normal. Naturally, the crew dives headfirst into Meta smart glasses, surveillance culture, creepy recording technology, Black Mirror predictions, and whether we're sprinting toward a future where literally everything is being watched.As if that's not enough existential dread, there's celebrity chaos everywhere.Taylor Swift wedding rumors refuse to die, Aaron Lewis accidentally becomes packing material for Taylor merch, Barry Manilow's latest appearance sparks one of the funniest conversations of the day, Limp Bizkit's comeback continues to surprise everyone, and the gang debates which era deserves a Rolling Stones biopic.There's also classic Rizz Show randomness including fake live albums, KISS concert intros, the Olsen twins making a rare appearance, John Cena's latest hair transplant adventure, Will Ferrell modeling underwear, and one wildly questionable list ranking the TV shows that supposedly define America.Basically, it's another perfectly normal episode where birthday planning somehow turns into discussions about government surveillance, celebrity gossip, 90s rock, social media addiction, and whether anyone can still tell the Olsen twins apart.Exactly the kind of organized chaos you'd expect from your favorite daily comedy show.If you love hilarious conversations, pop culture commentary, weird news, rock music, celebrity nonsense, and a group of friends who can derail literally any topic in record time, this episode delivers all of it.Thanks for making us part of your day and hanging out through another completely unhinged ride with The Rizzuto Show.Follow The Rizzuto Show → https://linktr.ee/rizzshow for more from your favorite daily comedy show.Connect with The Rizzuto Show Comedy Podcast online → https://1057thepoint.com/RizzShow.Hear The Rizz Show daily on the radio at 105.7 The Point | Hubbard Radio in St. Louis, MO.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

The weather is hotter than a dashboard in August, which naturally leads the gang to ask the important scientific questions... like whether eating ridiculously spicy food actually cools you off or if someone's "Mexican friend" just made that up.Then things take an unexpected turn when the crew debates one of life's biggest questions: January or July? One side argues for sunshine, pools and BBQs, while the other passionately defends fireplaces, blankets and seasonal depression. Somehow everyone makes a compelling argument... even if none of it makes any sense.Meanwhile, Learn officially declares Dry July after an absolutely legendary night that ended exactly the way every adult swears will "never happen again." The crew relives embarrassing hangover stories, questionable late-night food choices, mysterious sink incidents, and enough bad decisions to make every listener suddenly want a glass of water.As if that wasn't enough chaos, the conversation shifts toward dangerous TikTok trends after reports of the Benadryl Challenge resurfacing. The crew mixes genuine concern with their trademark sarcasm while reminiscing about all the unbelievably dumb things their own generation somehow survived.There's also plenty of discussions about American air conditioning, European heat waves, saunas, spicy snacks during a heat advisory, weird summer traditions, and why every generation somehow invents new ways to accidentally knock themselves unconscious.Basically... if you've ever questioned your life choices while sweating through your shirt, this episode is for you.Whether you're listening at work, in traffic, by the pool, or hiding from the heat with the AC cranked to "meat locker," this daily comedy show delivers exactly the kind of ridiculous conversations you've come to expect from The Rizzuto Show.The crew dives headfirst into nostalgia after discovering an old collection of TV commercials that somehow unlocked memories nobody asked for. One innocent Juicy Fruit jingle quickly turns into an investigation involving skiing, bananas, questionable marketing decisions, and whether "Take a sniff, pull it out" should have ever made it onto national television.Naturally, things only get weirder from there.Moon and Rizz square off once again in another edition of Match Up With Moon, where the trivia somehow covers pocket watches, Salvador Dalí, Oreo history, sunscreen, Weird Al, Netflix originals, Air Bud, Godzilla, James Bond, harmonicas, golf scoring, accordion buttons, and the Bare Naked Ladies...all in one game.It's the kind of trivia round that makes you wonder what exactly King Scott's browser history looks like.Expect plenty of roasting, second-guessing, accidental confidence, forgotten TV shows, wildly incorrect movie franchise guesses, and the usual chaos that somehow keeps this show moving every single morning.As always, the laughs come from watching everyone confidently explain things they absolutely shouldn't be confident about.The crew kicks things off celebrating Rizz's birthday with a full-on 90s throwback event featuring live music, bowling, cake, and enough nostalgia to make your lower back hurt just thinking about it. Then it's Social Media Day, which naturally turns into everyone comparing screen-time stats, admitting their phone addictions, and realizing we've collectively donated years of our lives to scrolling videos of people organizing refrigerators we'll never own.Then things get weird.A tech futurist casually suggests we should all accept that privacy is basically dead, cameras will be everywhere, and the best solution is simply "be a good person."

Boris Vallaud est un politique, Président du parti socialiste, président du groupe socialiste à l'Assemblée nationale, député des Landes et auteur de Nos vies ne sont pas des marchandises. Il vient de démissionner de la présidence du groupe PS au moment où on enregistre cet épisode.Je dois être honnête, ce n'est pas un hasard qu'en 9 ans de podcast je n'ai jamais invité de politiques encore ou presque.Ce n'est paspar désintérêt puisque les sujets que je traite sont profondément politiques. Mais parce que je voulais que ça soit une vraie conversation, pas une interview de promo, pas des éléments de langage, pas du positionnement de campagne. Je voulais qu'on parle de ce qui m'intéresse vraiment : pourquoi la société se fragmente, pourquoi les gens votent pour des gens qui ne défendent pas leurs intérêts, pourquoi la démocratie est sous pression, et ce qu'on peut y faire concrètement.Avec Boris, ça a marché j'ai l'impression mais je me méfie de mes propres incompétences à mettre en difficulté un politique en même temps. Le livre part d'une idée simple et tranchante, celle que l'on vit dans une immense boutique. Tout est à vendre, de la petite enfance jusqu'au grand âge, de notre attention jusqu'à notre imaginaire. Et cette colonisation est d'autant plus efficace qu'elle est silencieuse, on ne voit pas l'avant et l'après. Il existe une normalisation progressive de l'idée que tout a un prix, que tout se marchande, et que si vous ne pouvez pas payer, c'est votre problème.Dans cet épisode, nous parlons de ça, mais aussi de ce que ça produit politiquement. Parce que la marchandisation ne détruit pas que les services publics, elle détruit les liens, crée des épidémies de solitude, fragmente les territoires, et au bout, elle crée un appel d'air pour ceux que Boris appelle les "marchands d'ordre". Et la convergence Trump-Musk qu'on voit se déployer en ce moment, c'est exactement ça : quand le marché a tout pris, la dernière chose à acheter, c'est la démocratie elle-même.J'ai questionné Boris Vallaud sur la fiscalité des milliardaires où les 500 plus grandes fortunes françaises représentent 40% du PIB contre 12% il y a vingt ans, et où le taux d'effort fiscal des milliardaires est inférieur à celui de quelqu'un qui entre dans la première tranche de l'impôt sur le revenu. Nous parlons de la réforme des retraites et de pourquoi certaines réformes qui semblent économiquement solides se fracassent politiquement. Nous parlons de désindustrialisation — et de qui en est responsable, les politiques ou les dirigeants d'entreprise qui ont théorisé "la France sans usines". Nous parlons d'intelligence artificielle comme révolution industrielle que la classe politique n'a pas encore vraiment regardée en face. Nous parlons d'écologie, d'agriculture, et de pourquoi la transition est vécue comme une menace par ceux qui ont le moins de marge de manœuvre. Et nous parlons des angles morts de la gauche — Boris les nomme lui-même, sans esquiver.Ce qui m'a frappé dans cet épisode, c'est quelque chose que je n'attendais pas : son rapport aux gens qui votent contre ce qu'il représente. Il ne les méprise pas. Il dit qu'il les connaît, qu'ils sont bien, qu'il leur donne raison sur beaucoup de choses. Et que c'est ça qui lui donne envie de continuer malgré tout — pas la conviction d'avoir raison, mais la conviction que les gens méritent mieux que ce qu'on leur propose.Dans cet épisode, nous parlons de marchandisation, de services publics, de retraites, de désindustrialisation, de fiscalité, d'intelligence artificielle, d'écologie, de démocratie et de réseaux sociaux, de la gauche et de ses angles morts, et de ce que "représenter" veut vraiment dire quand on passe ses vendredis en permanence dans les Landes.Citations marquantes> "On vit dans une immense boutique. Tout est à vendre, de la petite enfance jusqu'au grand âge, jusqu'à soi-même, jusqu'à son imaginaire, jusqu'à sa conscience."> "C'est une avancée plus subreptice mais plus certaine qu'un coup d'état. Précisément parce qu'on ne voit pas l'avant et l'après. Et puis on se retrouve soi-même marchandise, au milieu de codes qui sont ceux du marché."> "Quand on abandonne la société au marché, la dernière Bastille à prendre, c'est la démocratie."> "Les milliardaires ont un taux d'effort fiscal inférieur à celui de quelqu'un qui entre dans la première tranche de l'impôt sur le revenu. Si tout le monde faisait le même effort, le juste effort, tout le monde vivrait mieux."> "Je ferme la porte à l'égoïsme et j'ouvre la porte sur la rencontre. Les gens sont courageux, généreux, intéressants."---Idées centrales1. La marchandisation est un coup d'État sans avant ni après~00:12:40 — 00:18:00Le marché n'a pas besoin d'une déclaration de victoire. Il avance par normalisation silencieuse. Le train où payer pour s'asseoir avec sa famille est devenu normal. La crèche où une amende a créé un marché du retard. Le moment où on n'est plus seulement un consommateur mais une marchandise soi-même. Baudrillard avait critiqué la société de consommation mais n'avait pas imaginé un marché aussi "totalisant et totalitaire" selon Boris. Ce qui est redoutable, c'est précisément l'absence de rupture visible.Pourquoi ça compte : ça change la façon dont on parle de capitalisme. Ce n'est plus un ennemi déclaré, c'est une colonisation du quotidien.2. Le service public coûte moins cher que son absence~00:25:54 — 00:29:52La santé française représente 12% du PIB, gratuite à l'usage, avec une espérance de vie supérieure aux États-Unis où la santé représente 18% du PIB, privée, et laisse des dizaines de millions de personnes sans couverture correcte. La vraie question n'est pas "l'État sait-il gérer ?" mais "combien coûte la marchandisation ?" C'est un retournement rhétorique qui déplace le débat là où il devrait être.Pourquoi ça compte : ça donne des armes concrètes dans un débat trop souvent posé en termes abstraits.3. La mixité scolaire fonctionne, et personne n'en parle~00:31:40 — 00:36:00À Toulouse, les enfants du quartier du Mirail ont été intégrés dans les collèges du centre-ville, dont Fermat et Saint-Sernin. Résultat : leur taux de réussite au brevet a rejoint la moyenne nationale. "Personne n'y a perdu. Tout le monde a été tiré vers le haut." C'est une réponse concrète, documentée, à la logique de ségrégation scolaire qui progresse avec la marchandisation de l'éducation.Pourquoi ça compte : une victoire réelle, mesurable, qui ne fait pas la une.4. L'IA est une révolution industrielle sans politique à sa hauteur~01:03:05 — 01:07:10Boris reconnaît la sidération. Il propose l'analogie de la Red Team du ministère de la Défense, qui fait appel à des auteurs de science-fiction pour imaginer les menaces du futur. Ce même travail devrait être fait sur l'IA. La question concrète qu'il pose : si votre enfant s'oriente aujourd'hui vers une formation, comment savoir si elle sera encore utile dans cinq ans ? Le marché est incapable de donner de la valeur à l'utilité sociale, et c'est l'IA qui va redessiner ce partage.Pourquoi ça compte : une position qui n'est ni dans la panique ni dans l'euphorie, avec une proposition d'action.5. La démocratie est la dernière Bastille du marché~01:17:25 — 01:21:15La convergence Trump-Musk n'est pas une coïncidence. Les 7 plus grandes entreprises américaines de la tech ont une capitalisation boursière qui dépasse le PIB des 27 pays de l'Union européenne. Quand le rapport de forces entre puissance publique et puissance privée est aussi déséquilibré, et que les oligarques de la tech contrôlent les plateformes sur lesquelles se forment les opinions, la démocratie délibérative est structurellement fragilisée.Pourquoi ça compte : ça sort la menace sur la démocratie du registre anecdotique pour la replacer dans la logique marchande.6. La gauche a des angles morts qu'elle refuse de regarder~01:21:15 — 01:25:20Boris les nomme sans esquiver : la mondialisation, qu'elle a soutenue sans voir la désindustrialisation venir ; la crise environnementale, où elle a tardé ; la culture, devenue orpheline ; et surtout les territoires ruraux, la France des sous-préfectures, qui ne se sent pas représentée. Ce qui est frappant, c'est qu'il l'admet sans chercher à s'en sortir avec une formule.Pourquoi ça compte : un politique qui admet ses angles morts crédibilise tout le reste de ce qu'il dit.---Questions posées dans l'interview1. De tous les sujets possibles, pourquoi avoir choisi la marchandisation comme angle central de ce livre ?2. Comment on sort d'un système d'hyper-marchandisation quand il est global et qu'aucun pays ne peut le faire seul ?3. Qu'est-ce qui vous intéresse encore dans la politique nationale là où la politique locale semble plus efficace et plus proche des gens ?4. Combien coûte vraiment la marchandisation — est-ce que l'État social revient finalement moins cher que son absence ?5. Pourquoi les Français ont-ils du mal à accepter que le problème est en haut plutôt qu'en bas, sur la fiscalité des héritages et des grandes fortunes ?6. Comment expliquer que la gauche perde des batailles culturelles sur des sujets où les chiffres sont pourtant de son côté ?7. La désindustrialisation depuis Mitterrand — erreur fondamentale, ou choix assumé par les dirigeants d'entreprise autant que par les politiques ?8.

Boris Vallaud est un politique, Président du parti socialiste, président du groupe socialiste à l'Assemblée nationale, député des Landes et auteur de Nos vies ne sont pas des marchandises. Il vient de démissionner de la présidence du groupe PS au moment où on enregistre cet épisode.Je dois être honnête, ce n'est pas un hasard qu'en 9 ans de podcast je n'ai jamais invité de politiques encore ou presque.Ce n'est paspar désintérêt puisque les sujets que je traite sont profondément politiques. Mais parce que je voulais que ça soit une vraie conversation, pas une interview de promo, pas des éléments de langage, pas du positionnement de campagne. Je voulais qu'on parle de ce qui m'intéresse vraiment : pourquoi la société se fragmente, pourquoi les gens votent pour des gens qui ne défendent pas leurs intérêts, pourquoi la démocratie est sous pression, et ce qu'on peut y faire concrètement.Avec Boris, ça a marché j'ai l'impression mais je me méfie de mes propres incompétences à mettre en difficulté un politique en même temps. Le livre part d'une idée simple et tranchante, celle que l'on vit dans une immense boutique. Tout est à vendre, de la petite enfance jusqu'au grand âge, de notre attention jusqu'à notre imaginaire. Et cette colonisation est d'autant plus efficace qu'elle est silencieuse, on ne voit pas l'avant et l'après. Il existe une normalisation progressive de l'idée que tout a un prix, que tout se marchande, et que si vous ne pouvez pas payer, c'est votre problème.Dans cet épisode, nous parlons de ça, mais aussi de ce que ça produit politiquement. Parce que la marchandisation ne détruit pas que les services publics, elle détruit les liens, crée des épidémies de solitude, fragmente les territoires, et au bout, elle crée un appel d'air pour ceux que Boris appelle les "marchands d'ordre". Et la convergence Trump-Musk qu'on voit se déployer en ce moment, c'est exactement ça : quand le marché a tout pris, la dernière chose à acheter, c'est la démocratie elle-même.J'ai questionné Boris Vallaud sur la fiscalité des milliardaires où les 500 plus grandes fortunes françaises représentent 40% du PIB contre 12% il y a vingt ans, et où le taux d'effort fiscal des milliardaires est inférieur à celui de quelqu'un qui entre dans la première tranche de l'impôt sur le revenu. Nous parlons de la réforme des retraites et de pourquoi certaines réformes qui semblent économiquement solides se fracassent politiquement. Nous parlons de désindustrialisation — et de qui en est responsable, les politiques ou les dirigeants d'entreprise qui ont théorisé "la France sans usines". Nous parlons d'intelligence artificielle comme révolution industrielle que la classe politique n'a pas encore vraiment regardée en face. Nous parlons d'écologie, d'agriculture, et de pourquoi la transition est vécue comme une menace par ceux qui ont le moins de marge de manœuvre. Et nous parlons des angles morts de la gauche — Boris les nomme lui-même, sans esquiver.Ce qui m'a frappé dans cet épisode, c'est quelque chose que je n'attendais pas : son rapport aux gens qui votent contre ce qu'il représente. Il ne les méprise pas. Il dit qu'il les connaît, qu'ils sont bien, qu'il leur donne raison sur beaucoup de choses. Et que c'est ça qui lui donne envie de continuer malgré tout — pas la conviction d'avoir raison, mais la conviction que les gens méritent mieux que ce qu'on leur propose.Dans cet épisode, nous parlons de marchandisation, de services publics, de retraites, de désindustrialisation, de fiscalité, d'intelligence artificielle, d'écologie, de démocratie et de réseaux sociaux, de la gauche et de ses angles morts, et de ce que "représenter" veut vraiment dire quand on passe ses vendredis en permanence dans les Landes.Citations marquantes> "On vit dans une immense boutique. Tout est à vendre, de la petite enfance jusqu'au grand âge, jusqu'à soi-même, jusqu'à son imaginaire, jusqu'à sa conscience."> "C'est une avancée plus subreptice mais plus certaine qu'un coup d'état. Précisément parce qu'on ne voit pas l'avant et l'après. Et puis on se retrouve soi-même marchandise, au milieu de codes qui sont ceux du marché."> "Quand on abandonne la société au marché, la dernière Bastille à prendre, c'est la démocratie."> "Les milliardaires ont un taux d'effort fiscal inférieur à celui de quelqu'un qui entre dans la première tranche de l'impôt sur le revenu. Si tout le monde faisait le même effort, le juste effort, tout le monde vivrait mieux."> "Je ferme la porte à l'égoïsme et j'ouvre la porte sur la rencontre. Les gens sont courageux, généreux, intéressants."---Idées centrales1. La marchandisation est un coup d'État sans avant ni après~00:12:40 — 00:18:00Le marché n'a pas besoin d'une déclaration de victoire. Il avance par normalisation silencieuse. Le train où payer pour s'asseoir avec sa famille est devenu normal. La crèche où une amende a créé un marché du retard. Le moment où on n'est plus seulement un consommateur mais une marchandise soi-même. Baudrillard avait critiqué la société de consommation mais n'avait pas imaginé un marché aussi "totalisant et totalitaire" selon Boris. Ce qui est redoutable, c'est précisément l'absence de rupture visible.Pourquoi ça compte : ça change la façon dont on parle de capitalisme. Ce n'est plus un ennemi déclaré, c'est une colonisation du quotidien.2. Le service public coûte moins cher que son absence~00:25:54 — 00:29:52La santé française représente 12% du PIB, gratuite à l'usage, avec une espérance de vie supérieure aux États-Unis où la santé représente 18% du PIB, privée, et laisse des dizaines de millions de personnes sans couverture correcte. La vraie question n'est pas "l'État sait-il gérer ?" mais "combien coûte la marchandisation ?" C'est un retournement rhétorique qui déplace le débat là où il devrait être.Pourquoi ça compte : ça donne des armes concrètes dans un débat trop souvent posé en termes abstraits.3. La mixité scolaire fonctionne, et personne n'en parle~00:31:40 — 00:36:00À Toulouse, les enfants du quartier du Mirail ont été intégrés dans les collèges du centre-ville, dont Fermat et Saint-Sernin. Résultat : leur taux de réussite au brevet a rejoint la moyenne nationale. "Personne n'y a perdu. Tout le monde a été tiré vers le haut." C'est une réponse concrète, documentée, à la logique de ségrégation scolaire qui progresse avec la marchandisation de l'éducation.Pourquoi ça compte : une victoire réelle, mesurable, qui ne fait pas la une.4. L'IA est une révolution industrielle sans politique à sa hauteur~01:03:05 — 01:07:10Boris reconnaît la sidération. Il propose l'analogie de la Red Team du ministère de la Défense, qui fait appel à des auteurs de science-fiction pour imaginer les menaces du futur. Ce même travail devrait être fait sur l'IA. La question concrète qu'il pose : si votre enfant s'oriente aujourd'hui vers une formation, comment savoir si elle sera encore utile dans cinq ans ? Le marché est incapable de donner de la valeur à l'utilité sociale, et c'est l'IA qui va redessiner ce partage.Pourquoi ça compte : une position qui n'est ni dans la panique ni dans l'euphorie, avec une proposition d'action.5. La démocratie est la dernière Bastille du marché~01:17:25 — 01:21:15La convergence Trump-Musk n'est pas une coïncidence. Les 7 plus grandes entreprises américaines de la tech ont une capitalisation boursière qui dépasse le PIB des 27 pays de l'Union européenne. Quand le rapport de forces entre puissance publique et puissance privée est aussi déséquilibré, et que les oligarques de la tech contrôlent les plateformes sur lesquelles se forment les opinions, la démocratie délibérative est structurellement fragilisée.Pourquoi ça compte : ça sort la menace sur la démocratie du registre anecdotique pour la replacer dans la logique marchande.6. La gauche a des angles morts qu'elle refuse de regarder~01:21:15 — 01:25:20Boris les nomme sans esquiver : la mondialisation, qu'elle a soutenue sans voir la désindustrialisation venir ; la crise environnementale, où elle a tardé ; la culture, devenue orpheline ; et surtout les territoires ruraux, la France des sous-préfectures, qui ne se sent pas représentée. Ce qui est frappant, c'est qu'il l'admet sans chercher à s'en sortir avec une formule.Pourquoi ça compte : un politique qui admet ses angles morts crédibilise tout le reste de ce qu'il dit.---Questions posées dans l'interview1. De tous les sujets possibles, pourquoi avoir choisi la marchandisation comme angle central de ce livre ?2. Comment on sort d'un système d'hyper-marchandisation quand il est global et qu'aucun pays ne peut le faire seul ?3. Qu'est-ce qui vous intéresse encore dans la politique nationale là où la politique locale semble plus efficace et plus proche des gens ?4. Combien coûte vraiment la marchandisation — est-ce que l'État social revient finalement moins cher que son absence ?5. Pourquoi les Français ont-ils du mal à accepter que le problème est en haut plutôt qu'en bas, sur la fiscalité des héritages et des grandes fortunes ?6. Comment expliquer que la gauche perde des batailles culturelles sur des sujets où les chiffres sont pourtant de son côté ?7. La désindustrialisation depuis Mitterrand — erreur fondamentale, ou choix assumé par les dirigeants d'entreprise autant que par les politiques ?8. Est-ce que la démocratie peut survivre aux réseaux sociaux, et a fortiori aux réseaux sociaux alimentés par l'IA ?9. Quels sont les angles morts de la gauche — les sujets qu'elle refuse de regarder en face ?10. Si vous ne deviez choisir qu'un seul premier acte contre la marchandisation, ce serait lequel ?---Références citées dans l'épisodeLivres / auteurs- Nos vies ne sont pas des marchandises, Boris Vallaud (le livre de l'invité, fil conducteur de l'épisode)- Jean Baudrillard, critique de la société de consommation (*La Société de consommation*) — cité ~00:13:42 dans le contexte de la colonisation par le marché- Antoine Fouchet [À VÉRIFIER orthographe] — son travail sur la CSG, le financement de la protection sociale et la désindustrialisation — cité ~00:47:50 et ~01:25:24- Printemps silencieux [À VÉRIFIER : attribué à Rachel Carson dans la tradition écologiste] — cité ~01:12:40 comme livre "tragique et intéressant" sur la disparition des insectes- Camille Penny — cité brièvement sur le thème de la générosité et de l'égoïsme — ~01:34:49Films / séries- Matrix, Wall-E, Avatar, Black Mirror — cités comme œuvres culturelles qui ont anticipé les enjeux de l'IA et du contrôle numérique — ~01:20:45Études / données- Les 500 plus grandes familles françaises représentent 40% du PIB (contre 12% il y a 20 ans) — ~00:36:34- Taux d'effort fiscal des milliardaires inférieur à la première tranche de l'impôt sur le revenu — ~00:38:42- 160 milliards d'euros d'aides aux entreprises, étude du Sénat — ~00:40:00- 25 à 30% de non-recours au RSA — ~00:55:03- Fondation Jean-Jaurès : étude sur la corrélation entre fermeture des PMU/bistrots et progression du vote RN — ~01:18:15- Cité des sciences : 76% des Français pensent avoir l'esprit critique, mais 40% refusent de parler à des gens avec qui ils ne sont pas d'accord — ~01:18:34- France : 12% du PIB consacré à la santé / États-Unis : 18% — ~00:26:00- Exemple Sanofi : 1 milliard d'euros d'aides publiques à la recherche, puis licenciements de chercheurs — ~00:40:00Personnalités / modèles- Vienne (Autriche) : modèle de logement social, 80% de locataires, 60% de logements publics, mixité sociale préservée — ~00:18:00- Landes : zéro EHPAD à but lucratif, régie publique de l'eau, premier département producteur d'énergie photovoltaïque — ~00:18:00 / ~01:17:09- Toulouse, collège du Mirail : mixité scolaire avec Fermat et Saint-Sernin — ~00:33:00- Red Team du ministère de la Défense : auteurs de science-fiction pour anticiper les menaces — ~01:20:00- Arnaud Montebourg, travail commun au ministère du Redressement productif — ~00:58:34- Léo Lagrange / Front populaire : politique du temps libéré — ~01:26:14- Jacques Chirac : "Notre maison brûle" — ~01:08:00Timestamps clés 00:08:25 — Intro : l'invité et le livreGreg présente Boris Vallaud et l'angle de l'épisode : on vit dans une immense boutique, et ce n'est pas anodin.00:12:40 — La marchandisation, plus sûre qu'un coup d'ÉtatUne avancée silencieuse, sans avant ni après visible.

Meghan Murphy is a writer, podcaster, and one of the original people to get canceled on Twitter — permanently banned in 2018 for tweeting "men aren't women, though" and referring to a man who wanted to get his testicles waxed as "him." She's been writing and podcasting independently ever since, and she now lives in Mexico. We talked about: the tweet that got her banned and the Yaniv waxing lawsuits that triggered it; Canada's Bill C16 and what it actually means to have gender identity law on the books; losing venues, hiring private security, and getting stalked around her Vancouver neighborhood; how Joe Rogan and Elon Musk both played a role in keeping her career alive; why she left Canada in January 2021; the cartel "protest" that burned some cars, got wildly exaggerated online, and tanked the tourist season in her Mexican town; the fear of fun — Andrew Huberman, Bryan Johnson, Gen Z, and the obsession with optimizing yourself out of actually living; why she's happier single; why "nobody wants you after 35" is not true; and why guys who call attractive women "mid" are almost certainly not having sex with real women.

Margaux Anbouba, Vogue's Senior Wellness and Beauty Editor is a little bit of a guinea pig when it comes to wellness and beauty trends. “I think I am sometimes too game to try something, but it's a lot of fun,” Margaux admits, “It's a hazard of the job, I suppose.” In this episode, she sat down with Chloe to talk about everything in the space she's been trying lately and to what effect.  They started off by talking about one of the hottest and also most hotly contested wellness options on the market right now: peptides. Margaux recently visited longevity specialist Dr. Amanda Kahn, “the peptide princess” of the Upper East Side, for a lengthy introductory appointment where they covered all of her medical and personal history. “I talked to her about how I'm feeling emotionally, how I'm feeling physically, and then she came back to me with this incredible list of peptides I could try.” Margaux plans to try several different peptides in her stack; among them is an off-label microdose of GLP-1s, in hopes of reducing inflammation throughout her body. She's also trying out GHK, which is meant to help with skin regeneration, and CB-4211 for increased exercise capacity and energy. Relatively new to exercising, Margaux tells Chloe about Emsculpt, a sort of high-intensity electrical muscle stimulation used to tighten and tone. Another similar technology is EMS, which is a low-level stimulation that helps deepen contractions during workouts. “It's sort of Black Mirror-ish in a way,” she says of the device. The first time she tried Emsculpt, after removing the device from her stomach, she was incredibly sweaty. The second time, less so. Generally, practitioners recommend four sessions. The pair also discuss one of Margaux's favorite (and less sweaty) activities—the buccal massage. Buccal refers to the mid-face area right below the cheekbone, and this massage technique takes place both inside and outside the mouth—yes, there will be fingers inside your mouth. Mariam Saprichyan, an esthetician at Karine Kazarian in New York and practitioner of buccal massage, explains that it opens up the lymph nodes, helps with blood flow, and relieves much of the tension we hold in our faces. Not particularly squeamish, Margaux shares another of her latest trials: injecting RADIESSE biostimulating molecules into her scalp. At a swanky room in The Hotel Chelsea, Margaux met with Los Angeles-based Nurse Practitioner Lauren Goodman. “She talked to me about how the scalp is a way to do a lot of lifting without showing anything on the face.” It's informally referred to as a crown lift. And there will always be more to try! To hear their latest Aura ring sleep scores, preferred sunscreens, and Margaux's advice on colonoscopies, check out the episode and subscribe to her weekly newsletter, I Tried That.  Learn about your ad choices: dovetail.prx.org/ad-choices
