Erik Childress and Steve Prokopy review nine movies for you this week with four of them coming in a unique bundle. Those include a group of friends sheltering in place when they believe a nuclear missile is coming for them (Nuked), a pregnant woman confined to a house when a mysterious man threatens her safety (Push), an introvert and an extrovert confined to an apartment trying to avoid becoming one with the world (Else) and another couple on the outs stuck in an apartment complex seemingly with no way out (Brick). Beyond that there is the implication that Van Helsing was not the man he said he was (Abraham's Boys) nor do the lucid dreams of a grieving man reflect the reality of his relationship (Daniela Forever). Steven Spielberg's immortal masterpiece celebrates a birthday with a new documentary (Jaws@50: The Definitive Inside Story). Jacob Tremblay comes to realize his anti-government father may not be the best role model (Sovereign). Finally, Steve gets to throw in his two cents on this week's big comic book reboot (Superman).1:02 - Abraham's Boys: A Dracula Story11:44 - Nuked18:40 - Push22:46 - Else27:10 - Brick38:09 - Daniela Forever45:46 - Jaws @ 50: The Definitive Inside Story1:01:41 - Sovereign1:18:55 - SupermanCLICK ON THE FILMS TO RENT OR PURCHASE AND HELP OUT THE MOVIE MADNESS PODCASTSIGN UP TODAYBe sure to check outChicago Screening Schedule - All the films coming to theaters and streamingPhysical Media Schedule - Click & Buy upcoming titles for your library.(Direct purchases help the Movie Madness podcast with a few pennies.)Erik's Linktree - Where you can follow Erik and his work anywhere and everywhere.The Movie Madness Podcast has been recognized by Million Podcasts as one of the Top 100 Best Movie Review Podcasts as well as in the Top 60 Film Festival Podcasts and Top 100 Cinephile Podcasts.

It's that time, gang! James Gunn's SUPERMAN is finally here, and Evan and Megan saw it. Is it good? Is it an origin story? Is it better than SUPERMAN IV: THE QUEST FOR PEACE? Do they like the dog? Does David Corenswet hold his own against Christopher Reeve's legacy? Evan and Megan have lots to say, and they also have some observations about Richard Donner's SUPERMAN (1978) and Richard Lester's SUPERMAN II (1980). Then Dave joins Evan and Megan for BRICK, a German thriller about a mysterious brick wall that appears in the night and strands a grieving young couple inside their apartment building, where they're eventually joined by Airbnbers, an old, his grandaughter, and a conspiracy theorist. There are a lot of tropes (and charitably, homages) and we break them all down. Over on Patreon, we watched the 1992 Val Kilmer film THUNDERHEART.

The Tropical MBA Podcast - Entrepreneurship, Travel, and Lifestyle
What happens when you've optimized everything… and growth still stalls? In this episode, Dan and Ian break down a powerful distinction most founders miss: the difference between optimization (making your business run smoother) and growth (finding and testing new paths to scale). They unpack insights from Growth Levers by Matt Lerner, a framework that helped PayPal and other startups unlock massive growth and why it still applies to bootstrappers today. You'll also get a behind-the-scenes look at how Dan and Ian run operations in under 5 hours per week using the “Four Bricks”: financials, a measured plan, individual scorecards, and pulse meetings (aka the Daily Huddle). Plus: why growth experiments often fail, how to avoid optimization creep, and how interviewing your customers using the “Jobs to Be Done” framework can reveal the 10% that leads to 90% of your growth.

FIRE staff responds to the Court's decision in Free Speech Coalition v. Paxton that addresses a Texas law requiring age verification for accessing certain sexual material online.

Jennifer Dillard and Makena Finger Zannini are the dynamic co-founders of Brick by Brick Collective, a fast-growing business support company for real estate professionals. Jen brings over a decade of real estate experience, running a team that generates over $1 million in annual revenue and managing an investment portfolio of 700+ doors—all while being a present mom and wife. Makena, a Wharton grad, built a multi-seven figure business before turning 30 and now leads The Boutique COO and Brick by Brick Collective, employing over 120 people. Together, they combine deep industry knowledge and operational expertise to help real estate agents and teams scale, automate, and thrive in a competitive market. On this episode we talk about: – How Jen and Makena each made their first dollar—from lemonade stands and golf ball hustling to jewelry sales – The story of how they met, built trust, and formed a business partnership rooted in shared values and open communication – The challenges real estate professionals face with operations, marketing, and scaling—and how Brick by Brick Collective fills that gap – The “shovels in the gold rush” approach: why supporting an industry can be more lucrative (and less crowded) than competing in it – What it takes to run a service-based business at scale, including automation, high standards, and building a strong team culture – The realities of entrepreneurship, from tough conversations to the importance of resilience and grit – How to leverage your skill set to build a business that fits your personality and goals Top 3 Takeaways 1. Shared Values Make Partnerships Work: The foundation of a successful business partnership is mutual respect, open communication, and aligned values—not just complementary skills. 2. Support Businesses Are Gold Mines: Instead of competing with thousands of agents, Brick by Brick Collective supports them—proving that “selling shovels in a gold rush” can be the smartest play. 3. Service Businesses Teach Real Entrepreneurship: Running a service-based company forces you to master every business function, from sales and operations to HR and finance, and is a powerful way to launch your entrepreneurial journey. Notable Quotes – “Everything you want in life is on the other side of a hard conversation.” – “One size fits all fits no one—real estate professionals need support that understands their world.” – “There's always going to be a need for real estate agents, and there's always going to be a need for support.” Connect with Jennifer Dillard & Makena Finger Zannini: – Instagram: @jendillard and @makenafingerzannini – Business: @brickbybrickcollective – Website: brickbybrickcollective.com
There’s no moment in queer history more celebrated than the Stonewall riots, which set off the modern LGBTQ+ rights movement. There’s also no event that’s more hotly debated. To separate the truth from the myth, we first step onto the streets of Greenwich Village, a mecca of queer culture in the 60s. By all accounts The Stonewall Inn at the heart of the Village was a dump, but it was also the only place queer people could dance, making it an instant favorite among neighborhood hangouts. But how did one Saturday night at the bar change the course of history? And what was Marsha’s role in how it all jumped off? But wait, before you fast forward to Pride today and fade to the credits, we take a closer look at the organizing that followed the riots and the ways it excluded the very people who were on the front lines, people like Marsha.

With host retail coach Wendy Batten https://wendybatten.com/podcast-intro/ In This Episode: Running a retail business isn't just about WHAT you sell—it's about WHO you bringing together in your retail store. In this heartwarming and wisdom-filled episode, Cadence Kidwell of Fuzzy Goat (a yarn store in Thomasville, Georgia) shares how she's built a thriving business rooted in connection, creativity, and community support. Whether you're a seasoned retailer or just starting out, Cadence's story will inspire you to think big, act bravely, and build something meaningful. Key Takeaways from a Retail Yarn Store Owner: Cadence shares her inspirational journey from university teacher to yarn shop owner Why community is the most important product she sells How she built a strong, trusted team that loves the store like it's their own Creative marketing tools she swears by (like countdowns and story-driven videos) How events like Local Yarn Shop Day bring huge in-store traffic Why offering benefits like retirement plans helps retain staff The importance of mentorship, coaching, and always learning something new “We're not just selling yarn. We are selling connection and whimsy.” - Cadence Kidwell About Cadence and Fuzzy Goat Prior to opening Fuzzy Goat, Cadence Kidwell obtained a PhD in Creative Writing and designed a certificate program for students to develop cultural competencies while working at Florida State University. She was happy with that career but began dreaming of her own shop. She decided that she could either steady-on into the last decade of university life or she could join the makers' life by building a business from a rough-worn building & filling it with beautiful yarns made by strong women. Luckily for Thomasville (and the rest of us) she chose the latter. Fuzzy Goat is truly an independent business with over 90% of our merchandise created by other independent women makers. Fuzzy Goat creates a space where conversation across generations and life experiences is valued and sought after.

It's Friday and we fooled them again with an RGF that's part reunion recap, part emotional unpack—and yes, the mop-top mullet made an appearance. We talk Brian Wilson and why some songs—and some souls—leave a mark. We talk whether Sunday is the start or end of the week, and why teenage boys are now rocking hair that looks like it lost a bet. We talk about the mob salad mullet epidemic, eras that aged well (hello, Mad Men), and those that didn't (sorry, 70s—you tried). We talk bricks. The emotional kind. The ones you've been carrying for decades because someone once told you you didn't belong, didn't graduate, or didn't measure up. Spoiler alert: no one's checking credentials at the door of friendship. You're in. Always were. We talk about the power of showing up—whether it's to a college reunion, a group chat, or your own healing. And we remind you: just because you've gotten used to the weight doesn't mean it was ever yours to carry. We talk DNA myths, emotional fatigue, and why therapy can look like a professional session, a friend chat, or even a late-night convo with Phineas J. Whoopi (AI therapist of choice). Healing is healing—don't knock the method. Happy Friday. Set down a brick. Bye betches. -- HEAL SQUAD SOCIALS IG: https://www.instagram.com/healsquad/ TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@healsquadxmaria HEAL SQUAD RESOURCES: Heal Squad Website:https://www.healsquad.com/ Heal Squad x Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/HealSquad/membership Maria Menounos Website: https://www.mariamenounos.com My Curated Macy's Page: Shop My Macy's Storefront Prenuvo: Prenuvo.com/MARIA for $300 off Delete Me: https://bit.ly/43rkHwi code: SQUAD EMR-Tek Red Light: https://emr-tek.com/discount/Maria30 for 30% off Airbnb: https://www.airbnb.com/ Join In-Person Heal Retreat Waitlist! https://mariamenounos.myflodesk.com/heal-retreat-waitlist ABOUT MARIA MENOUNOS: Emmy Award-winning journalist, TV personality, actress, 2x NYT best-selling author, former pro-wrestler and brain tumor survivor, Maria Menounos' passion is to see others heal and to get better in all areas of life.
