Though the office of the Shining Star stands on the second of Spillaway Peaks' three tiers, on a clear night, its rooftop beacon can be seen from miles away. This, Thelonious, the newspaper's editor-in-chief says, is a recruitment strategy. Those who see the light and travel through the wilderness towards it tend to be inquisitive and adventurous enough to make good freelance reporters. And though they followed the Shining Star's reputation before its shining light, couldn't the same be said of the crew of the Little Snail? This week on Perpetua: A Picture of the Hills 03 Perpetua Guide [In Progress v.058] Side Quests[SDQS] Spillaway Peaks [SPSQ] Escort the Waylon the Photographer - 300 Asta Description: It's time for Old Waylon to take the yearly photo of the town. Guard him on his journey up the mountains to the best angle. Definitely take this quest before leaving town. You're gonna be going up that way to do other side quests anyway, and while Waylon isn't worth a damn in a fight, he also doesn't actually cause you too much trouble as long as you keep up with him! Terrapin Interest Story - 25 to 425 Asta Description: The Shining Star is paying for feature stories about the people of Spillaway Peaks. Brainstorm an idea, interview your subjects, write your article, and supplement it with art! This one is a pain in the butt and it seems really random how much you make from it. Basically, you pick from easy to difficult in each phase of the quest (topic, interview, etc.) and depending on how you do, you get more money. Each of the topics also requires you to go to different places, so like if you do a story on the school play, you have to go to the Clutch area to interview parents and children, where as if you do a story on the port's guards, you need to go down to the water to talk to them. I guess if you really need the Asta, go for it. Investigate the Livestock Deaths - 400 Asta Description: Beula's Giant Oxen have been getting sick, and some have even been dying! This is a problem, since it's almost time to dredge up new Rice Paddies. Though this looks like a side quest, it's basically mandatory. Unless you were inducted into the Luminaries by Commodore Onyx before leaving Calstega Bay, when you meet with Thelonious, he'll basically put you on a path to do this quest. As such, go read the main Calstega Bay quest section of the FAQ to learn more about this one. Kill 17 Frostoads - 100 Asta Description: N/A I honestly don't understand why this one is even on this side quest board. Isn't it supposed to be a newspaper? Why would they pay you to kill random toads? There's not even a description on it! Paper Delivery - 20 Asta Description: Deliver the Shining Star to all 15 of its readers. Okay, so, you have to go from the Shining Star to 15 different NPCs spread all across the town. And with a 20 Asta reward, it sounds like a really boring fetch quest that just wastes your time right? Well. I guess I won't say it isn't a time waster. But the important thing is that you can do this once per every Rest action. And because you can stay for free in Jonathan's family's house… that's right. It seems like you can just grind money here indefinitely. I say "seems" because I haven't tested it yet, and there is a chance that just resting repeatedly and not advancing the main plot could have consequences, like it did in Shine-Divine War Armidirge. So be careful, but let me know what happens if you do try to get infinite money here!

BrainStorm wants to hear from you! Send us a text.This episode of BrainStorm, by UsAgainstAlzheimer's, features host Meryl Comer interviewing Leah Fisher, a psychotherapist and author who took a bold year-long solo travel sabbatical at age 60 to explore different cultures while maintaining her marriage. The conversation takes a poignant turn as Fisher reveals that after the events in her book, she received an MCI (Mild Cognitive Impairment) diagnosis with elevated Alzheimer's risk. She candidly shares her journey of recognizing early symptoms like misplacing car keys and developing aphasia, the validation that came with diagnosis, and her current experience living with uncertainty about disease progression. Fisher offers insights on how couples cope with health diagnoses, the importance of curiosity over avoidance, and her desire to be treated with patience, kindness, and continued love as she faces an uncertain future. This conversation is essential listening for family members, caregivers, and anyone navigating aging and brain health. Produced by Susan QuirkSupport the show
Kicking off 2026, let's cut through the noise and focus on what actually matters: edtech tools that can genuinely move the needle for educators. Rather than chasing trends or shiny new platforms, this episode is about intentional, practical technology use that supports feedback, collaboration, creativity, engagement, organization, and student voice.#EdTech Thought: Shrinking the Engagement GapThe episode tackles the growing disconnect between students' highly interactive digital lives outside of school and the passive digital experiences they often encounter in classrooms.Chris challenges the idea that more screen time equals more engagement and introduces the 80/20 Producer Strategy:For every 80% of the time students spend consuming informationEnsure at least 20% is spent creating something with value beyond the gradebookThe core message:Engagement in 2026 isn't about flashy tools. It's about student agency. When students create, design, build, and solve real problems, the engagement gap begins to close.Six Tools to Level Up in 2026#1 Mote — Rethinking FeedbackFeedback is essential but time-consuming. Mote allows educators to leave quick voice comments directly inside Google Docs, Slides, and LMS platforms.Why it matters:Faster than typingMore personal and humanAccessible through audio + transcriptionLevel-Up Question:Where in your workflow could your voice be more effective than your keyboard?#2 FigJam — Making Thinking VisibleFigJam is a collaborative digital whiteboard that turns learning into an active, visible process.Use it to:Brainstorm and organize ideasCapture student thinking in real timeSupport collaboration for both synchronous and asynchronous workLevel-Up Question:How often do students visually share their thinking before submitting a final product?#3 Canva — Creativity That CommunicatesCanva has evolved into a full creation and communication platform, allowing students to demonstrate learning visually and professionally.Classroom possibilities include:Infographics and explainer visualsDigital portfoliosEthical media creation and storytellingLevel-Up Question:Are students creating content — or just consuming it?#4 Curipod, Pear Deck & Nearpod — Real-Time EngagementThese tools transform traditional presentations into interactive learning experiences through polls, questions, and formative checks.Why they work:Immediate insight into student understandingNo extra gradingIncreased accountability without pressureLevel-Up Question:How often do you

In this episode, Dave and Jamison answer these questions: Hello gentlemen, long-time listener here, and I'd love your take on something that's been keeping me up at night. The high powered boss that I report to is someone I genuinely like and respect.This manager is smart, kind, honest, and overall great to work with. We have a solid relationship. I also come from big tech, so I sometimes feel I have better experience around managing projects and keeping teams organized. However she recently shared in confidence that there's a chance of resigning in the next few months. and when I asked what keeps her up at night, the headache did not seem so big of a deal to me. But ever since hearing this news, I've been catastrophizing the next few months. I'm not ready to job-hunt. At the same time, if this manager does leave, it could be a really good opportunity for me to step up. So here's what I'm struggling with: 1.How do I position myself for a potential promotion without making it seem like I'm going behind my manager's back or trying to undermine them? 2.Should I quietly start looking for an job anyways, just in case? 3.And how do I stay sane when this might all be for nothing and the manager might actually stay? Would really appreciate your wisdom on how to navigate this without losing more sleep. Thanks for everything you do! I've worked as an engineering manager in a few big companies in Berlin, but after too much corporate politics bs, I flipped the fingers and quit. In the 2025 economy, that wasn't the smartest move — finding a new job has been harder than ever. I've been focusing on smaller companies, ideally under 100 people. Ideally less politics, more autonomy. But now I've got an offer from Google in Bucharest — nearly double the compensation what I could get in Germany. The catch? I'd have to leave my strong circle of friends in Berlin and start over in a new city, new country. What would you do in my place? Brainstorm with me please
Interesting convo with a brother I met randomly I never really meet anyone randomly it's all meant to be We spoke about business, art, the struggle, cryptocurrency. I like listening to ideas

“We can't sleep for them, but we can support and set the stage for healthy sleep”. Guest Nicole Shallow, M.Ed., BCBA joins the show to talk about supporting sleep through a compassionate, neuroaffirming, science-based lens. Nicole works with families whose autistic children struggle with falling asleep, bedtime resistance, night waking, or inconsistent sleep schedules—helping parents understand where to begin when exhaustion and overwhelm have taken over.We discuss what makes someone a good candidate for sleep coaching and how behavior analysts can look beyond behavior alone by considering factors like diet, medical needs, and overall wellness. Nicole walks us through how she supports families with clear start dates, meaningful data collection, and recommendations tailored to each child's unique sleep profile.Nicole also shares five core sleep support tips that families and clinicians can start using right away:Consistent Wake TimeSleeping in can make nights harder. Work toward steady morning wake times to anchor the day.Diet & NutritionSupport families in creating a more balanced diet and identify barriers that may be impacting sleep quality.Bedtime Resistance & ConnectionPrioritize connection and co-regulation—offer fully present, attuned attention in the hour before bedtime.Outdoor Time & Daylight ExposureDaylight helps regulate circadian rhythm. Brainstorm safe ways to increase outdoor time.Medical ConsiderationsRule out medical issues that could be impacting sleep. A doctor's perspective can bring clarity and direction.For BCBAs interested in becoming more confident in sleep support, Nicole offers a Sleep Certification Program every February and September.

Send us a textAsher is a spiritual entrepreneur, human connection coach and Rabbi in Southern California. His story began at home as a young child where all seemed well from the outside. As the youngest by nine years, he felt a horrible sense of abandonment. His loneliness was compounded by his father's prominence as a rabbi and community leader where the pressure to appear as role models was insufferable. This resulted in a childhood eating disorder and drug use by age 14.Asher was 33 when he lost his multi-million-dollar business, with the resulting bankruptcy destroying what little self-worth he had as a provider to his family – he had hit rock-bottom. Asher found his road to recovery through the rooms of Alcoholics Anonymous, where despite the circle of anonymous faces, it was truly the first time in his life he felt the power of shared human connection through service to self and others.The experience marked the debut of an odyssey of self-discovery, trading ego for vulnerability, and leaving the pursuit of pleasure for the pursuit of meaning. Asher decidedly dedicated the rest of his career to helping others help themselves “restore wholeness” in their lives.Armed with a renewed sense of self, profound life experience, and entrepreneurial passion, Asher founded Transcend in 2008, building an internationally recognized recovery community. Now sober twelve years and counting, Asher has counseled hundreds of men and women and built a renowned reputation where he is recognized by his three hallmark pillars of recovery; Accountability, Community, Unconditional Love.https://a.co/d/gbVDgp9http://Ashergottesman.comhttps://www.instagram.com/theasherg?igsh=bjhpMW50OWYyeWh3-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------https://wig-guru.com - Use Code 'Brainstorm' For 10% Offhttps://ourvillageny.org-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------For more Brainstorm go to...Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/show/2aPCiuzsIoNKYt5jjv7RFT?si=67dfa56d4e764ee0Apple Podcasts: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/brainstorm-with-sony-perlman/id1596925257Youtube: https://www.youtube.com/@brainstormwithsonyInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/brainstormwithsony
Testosteron bliver ofte fremstillet som selve essensen af maskulinitet: styrke, sexlyst, selvtillid, drive. Men forskning peger på, at testosteron også kan have en psykisk skyggeside. For eksempel har mænd, der har brugt anabolske steroider, oftere symptomer på depression og angst. Men hvorfor? Hvad sker der i hjernen, når man udsætter sin krop for høje doser af testosteron? I denne episode dykker vi ned i, hvad der sker i hjernen, når testosteronniveauet skrues helt op - og hvordan det kan påvirke psyken. Vi følger sporene fra 1800-tallets laboratorier til nutidens fitnesscentre og hjernescanninger af norske bodybuildere. Vi runder blandt andet: Verdens måske første ‘testmaxx'er' og hans særlige testosteron-cocktail brygget på knuste dyretestikler. Hvad der sker med forbindelserne i hjernen, når man indtager meget testosteron. Hvordan kunstigt testosteron påvirker din naturlige testosteronproduktion. Episoden er del to i vores miniserie om testosteron. Hvis du ikke har hørt del et, kan du lytte til den først - og blive klogere på TikTok-trenden ‘testosteronmaxxing', og om testosteron virkelig er det mirakelmiddel, videoerne lover. Den hedder ‘Testosteron-tilskud: Mirakelmiddel, maskulin myte eller farlig trend?'. Medvirkende: Jon Jarløv Rasmussen, speciallæge i endokrinologi og postdoc Rigshospitalet og Holbæk Sygehus Astrid Bjørnebekk, seniorforsker ved Oslo Universitetshospital og leder af forskningsprojektet ‘Langvarig bruk av anabole androgene steroider - effekter på hjerne, hjerte og mental helse' Redaktion Anne Sophie Thingsted, Nana Elving Hansen, Eva Berg Søndergaard, Christoffer Bjerre og Benjamin D'Souza Studier, vi nævner i episoden: Norsk studie om forbindelserne i hjernen på brugere af anabolske steroider Norsk studie om strukturelle forandringer ved langvarig brug af anabolske steroider Det danske registerstudie om depression og angst Jon Jarløv Rasmussens studie om steroidbrugeres livskvalitet To studier om sammenhæng mellem at tage steroider og at have psykiske problemer eller få ændringer i, hvor godt hjernen fungerer - dette og dette.

Send us a textIn this episode of Imperfect Marketing, host Kendra Corman tackles one of her biggest marketing pet peeves — believing that artificial intelligence can replace truly knowing your audience. With AI tools like ChatGPT, Claude, and Gemini becoming everyday marketing helpers, many professionals are skipping the fundamentals of understanding their customers. Kendra explains why that shortcut leads to bland, ineffective content and what to do instead.The Problem with Skipping the BasicsMany marketers use AI to generate content without doing the essential groundwork of understanding their audience.AI tends to “make you happy” — it tells you what you want to hear, not necessarily what your target market is actually thinking.When you rely solely on AI, you end up with generic, emotionless copy that fails to connect.Understanding Your Audience: The Real Marketing 101Knowing your audience isn't just about demographics — it's about visualizing the person you're talking to.Kendra shares a story about working with a local business that used detailed data to build realistic customer personas—down to shopping habits, lifestyle, and motivations.You don't need expensive software to do this. Start by thinking about your favorite client and what makes them unique.How to Really Learn About Your AudienceSkip the surveys—people edit themselves when writing responses.Have real conversations with your audience instead. Ask questions like:What's keeping you up at night?What frustrates you most about your business or life?What do you wish you had a solution for?These conversations give you the exact words and emotions that resonate with your audience — words you can later feed into AI for far more powerful results.Using AI the Right WayOnce you understand your audience, AI becomes a powerful tool — not a replacement for human connection.AI can help you:Brainstorm ideas and refine your voiceDraft faster and polish existing contentCreate consistent, audience-specific messagingThe difference between “Write me an email” and “Write me an email for this audience, in this voice, about this problem” is night and day.Key Takeaways for MarketersAI isn't the enemy — but it's not magic either.You are the strategist. AI can only amplify what you already know.Know your audience better than anyone else, and your marketing will never sound forced or fake.Whether you're a business owner, marketer, or content creator, this episode will challenge you to return to the roots of great marketing: understanding people.

Hey Strangers! Daisy was recently on an episode of What Went Wrong. Here's a snippet of that episode. For the full thing, visit: What Went Wrong, or find it wherever you get your podcasts! When Natalie Wood drowned in 1981 she was only 43 years old. Thanks to films like ‘West Side Story', ‘Rebel Without a Cause', and ‘Miracle on 34th Street' she was an icon, but she'd been out of the spotlight for almost a decade. Wood was in the midst of filming her comeback, ‘Brainstorm', when she, her co-star Christopher Walken, and her husband Robert Wagner took their yacht out for Thanksgiving weekend. What happened that night depends on who you ask… and when you ask them. Join Chris, Lizzie, and special guest Daisy Eagan from Strange and Unexplained for the first episode of our bonus series 'Out of Frame' where we'll investigate the darker, more obscure corners of Hollywood history. In this episode we'll find out if Wood's death sank her final film, or if ‘Brainstorm' had something to do with her death.
