Let us know what you think!Episode OverviewHittin' the Bricks with Kathleen is the genealogy podcast that features your questions and her answers, focusing on clear reasoning, historical context, and practical research methods. In this episode, host Kathleen Brandt unpacks the growing buzz around the term “quantum genealogy,” explaining why it functions as a metaphor rather than a research method—and why real genealogical breakthroughs still depend on careful human analysis.The episode examines how DNA evidence, overlapping matches, and complex family structures can feel uncertain or contradictory, while clarifying where computing tools help—and where they do not decide conclusions.In This Episode, You'll LearnWhat people usually mean when they say “quantum” in a genealogy contextWhy quantum computing does not change biological inheritance or kinshipHow new evidence requires reanalysis and revised conclusionsWhere DNA tools assist research and where human judgment remains essentialWhy buzzwords can obscure, rather than clarify, good genealogical practiceTopics Covered“Quantum genealogy” as a metaphor for uncertainty and overlapThe limits of quantum computing in genealogical researchOverlapping DNA matches and shared ancestryComplexities in African American genealogy, including endogamyBlood quantum basics and its role in tribal enrollmentInterpretation, context, and evidence-based reasoningCommunity conversation at the Nelson-Atkins Museum (Kansas City)Episode Discussion & Key MomentsKathleen breaks down how the term “quantum genealogy” has entered popular conversation and why it can be misleading when treated as a method rather than a metaphor. She explains that while computing power can accelerate comparison and sorting of data, it does not alter the realities of inheritance, kinship, or historical context.The episode also addresses challenging areas of research, including African American genealogy, where overlapping DNA matches, endogamy, and incomplete records demand especially careful interpretation. Kathleen clarifies the role—and limits—of blood quantum, emphasizing why legal or enrollment definitions should not be confused with genealogical proof.Key questions examined include:Why does DNA evidence sometimes seem contradictory?How should researchers respond when new evidence changes earlier conclusions?What role should technology play versus human reasoning?Events & Community ConversationCommunity discussion at the Nelson-Atkins Museum, Kansas CityFree event; light refreshments servedWhy This Episode MattersAs genealogy tools grow more powerful, this episode reinforces a critical principle: technology assists research, but interpretation belongs to people. Clear thinking, context, and evidence—not buzzwords—remain the foundation of sound genealogical conclusions.About the PodcastHittin' the Bricks with Kathleen is the genealogy podcast that features your questions and her answers, helping listeners navigate complex evidence, historical nuance, and modern research tools with clarity and confidence.Subscribe & ConnectBe sure to bookmark linktr.ee/hittinthebricks for your one stop access to Kathleen Brandt, the host of Hittin' the Bricks with Kathleen.

PS: We recommend WATCHING this episode! In this episode of Paddock 43, we're joined by LEGO Master and Ambassador Andrew to talk all things LEGO x FormulaWe chat about how LEGO's partnership with F1 came to life, what it's like being involved in such an iconic crossover, and we get hands-on building mini F1 cars during the episode (chaos included). Andrew also takes us inside one of LEGO's most iconic collector pieces, the Ferrari F2004, celebrating Michael Schumacher and one of the most dominant cars in F1 history. We also did a cheeky little competition, any guesses who won?As always, we couldn't resist a little paddock gossip, touching on the Kim Kardashian and Lewis Hamilton rumours and touching on the Cadillac livery and more guesses about the 2026 season.A fun, creative and slightly chaotic episode that blends F1, pop culture and LEGO magic.
Sometimes, a pivot isn't triggered by a failure. Sometimes, it happens when you’re winning. You can have the perfect life on paper - the apartment by the beach, the successful business, the long-term relationship - and still feel a quiet, persistent exhaustion. It’s that slow build of burnout that whispers: you are running 100 k’s an hour in the wrong direction. But what happens when you finally brave that change, only to face a hurdle you never saw coming? Jo Yates began her career studying analogue photography in the UK, right on the edge of the digital revolution. As the industry shifted beneath her feet, she was forced to re-educate herself - pivoting from photography into video production, then into large-scale event and marketing production here in Australia. But alongside her creative career, Jo had a quiet safety-net hustle: flipping properties. What started as a way to create financial security slowly grew into something much bigger - until it became impossible to ignore. Then life intervened. After moving to Noosa, Jo was faced with the covid lockdown AND a diagnosis that forced her to stop, reassess, and reinvent her life yet again. It became the ultimate pivot - one that reframed her relationship with work, success, and what really mattered. Today, Jo runs Bricks and More, a property renovation and buyer’s advocacy business with a difference - combining her creative thinking with commercial strategy to build homes that are genuinely meaningful to the people who live in them. In this episode, we talk about adaptability, resilience, rebuilding after crisis, and why you don’t need a dramatic leap to change your life - just a clear vision and the courage to take the next small step THE END BITS: Want more from Sarah Davidson?

Have you ever felt under-resourced? More month than money when it comes to all your bills? Maybe the cause of your lack of resources is due to somebody else? Maybe a family member made a commitment that has cost you dearly and you are still paying for it? This seems to be the thinking of Israelites in slavery in our passage of Exodus 5 this week when their leader Moses tells Pharaoh to let God's people go. Pharaoh was not going to let go of his slave work force so easily and instead demanded that the Israelites make bricks without straw and without lowering their daily quota, one brick. But this was God's word! And sometimes God's word makes things harder before they get easier, but that is not the last of God's word. There is hope for those under-resourced. The God over everything will deliver us!

What is up, team. Robert here.We just wrapped up Episode 42 of The Work Podcast with Greg, and we got straight into the weeds on mindset, the reality of commitment, and the big moves we're making for 2026.If you're looking for the breakdown, here is what we covered:We are already weeks into 2026, and for a lot of people, the resolutions are already dead in the water. We talked about why that happens—people set these rigid, fragile goals without the "switch flip" mentality to back them up. For me, it's about unwavering commitment. I'm doing "Meat and Bricks" for World Carnivore Month, and I'm already down 5 pounds because I removed the decision fatigue. I flipped the switch, and the noise is gone.I addressed the negativity we saw online recently. I pulled a PR on deadlift, and instead of respect, I got comments about how I "could have pulled more if I ate carbs". It's the classic "crabs in a bucket" mentality. You could be the leanest person alive or harvest cacao in Brazil by hand, and someone would still complain about the handle of your machete. I don't have time for that. My time is for my family, my business, and the people who actually matter.We are full steam ahead for the competition on September 19th.Logistics: The venue, judges, polygraph, and tanning are locked and loaded.Experience: We are aiming for a swag bag worth $200–$300, blowing the standard "t-shirt and a protein bar" out of the water.Registration: It is open now. Don't be that competitor who waits until they "feel ready" to sign up. Commit now, put the date on the calendar, and let that fear of failure drive your prep.We took a minute to look back at 2016. That was the year I launched Keto Savage, back when Crystal and I were grinding in Washington and eventually living in a warehouse. Seeing where we are now—10 years later, with two kids and a business that supports our "family" here at the compound—puts everything into perspective.Last week was about the competition; this week is all about apparel. We are deep in inventory counts and prepping for a massive relaunch of the apparel line. We're compartmentalizing the chaos to get it done right.Time to shut out the noise and get back to work.

Let us know what you think!Episode OverviewHittin' the Bricks with Kathleen is a podcast focused on genealogy, local history, and practical methods for turning scattered records into meaningful family narratives. In this episode, host Kathleen Brandt shifts the focus from collecting as many names as possible to building one strong ancestral branch by revisiting familiar records with sharper questions and better research tools.Using the guiding principle “one ancestor, one record, three questions,” this episode demonstrates how focused analysis can transform disconnected documents into a coherent and readable life story.In This Episode, You'll LearnWhy choosing a single ancestor can accelerate genealogical breakthroughsHow focusing on one record group reveals deeper patterns and inconsistenciesWhat three questions to ask of every document you findHow timelines, checklists, and re-reading notes expose overlooked cluesWays to turn raw data into stories your family can actually readTopics CoveredSelecting one ancestor to study for an extended periodFocusing on a single record group (pensions, land, or census)Asking new analytical questions of familiar documentsBuilding timelines and using simple research checklistsRe-reading old notes to surface missed detailsApplying the FAN method to track friends, associates, and neighborsTranslating research data into narrative formCase study: James Nelson Strader and Civil War pension recordsSetting monthly research goals and sharing progressEpisode Discussion & Key MomentsKathleen explains how genealogists often stall by spreading their efforts too thin across many names. By intentionally narrowing the scope to one ancestor at a time, researchers can ask better questions and recognize patterns that are invisible in broad family trees.The episode walks through practical techniques such as building timelines, using checklists, and applying the FAN method to witnesses and neighbors. Kathleen also revisits the value of re-reading old research notes, demonstrating how previously overlooked clues can emerge when viewed through a new analytical lens.A detailed case study of James Nelson Strader illustrates how Civil War pension records can be mined repeatedly to reconstruct a fuller, more accurate life story.Key questions examined include:What changes when you focus on depth instead of breadth?How can a single record group support long-term research?What makes genealogical work understandable to non-researchers?Resources & Research Tools MentionedCivil War pension filesCensus, land, and pension record groupsFAN (Friends, Associates, Neighbors) methodResearch timelines and checklistsWhy This Episode MattersThis episode encourages a sustainable and disciplined approach to genealogy—one that prioritizes understanding over accumulation. By focusing deeply on one ancestor, researchers can create accurate, readable histories that preserve meaning for future generations, not just data.About the PodcastHittin' the Bricks with Kathleen helps listeners break through genealogy brick walls by cBe sure to bookmark linktr.ee/hittinthebricks for your one stop access to Kathleen Brandt, the host of Hittin' the Bricks with Kathleen.

On this episode of the podcast we take give our thoughts on the X-Men Doomsday trailer, the latest Star Wars news, break down the Playstation Plus games for January, and discuss the new Lego Smart Bricks announced at CES.
CES 2026 brought notable innovations for filmmakers and media professionals. In this episode, we break down the most interesting tech: Fujifilm's new instax mini Evo Cinema Camera with vintage film emulation, LEGO's impressive computer-integrated Smart Brick, HP's EliteBoard keyboard computer, Boston Dynamics' fully electric Atlas robot, Samsung's thin 3D display technology, and Nvidia's Rubin platform advances. --The views and opinions expressed in this podcast are the personal views of the hosts and do not necessarily reflect the views or positions of their respective employers or organizations.

CES 2026 recap with Marc Aflalo and Mitchell Whitfield, covering the shift from AI buzzwords to real outcomes, the return of BlackBerry-style typing with Clicks, Pebble's comeback with a color e-ink watch and a $70 voice memo ring, LG's household robot, Dell reviving XPS, Samsung's trifold and a no-crease folding display preview, and Lego Smart Bricks that add lights, sound, sensors, and on-brick logic.Marc and Mitchell kick off the new year with CES, and a simple question: what will actually show up in real life after the hype? They agree the tone around AI changed. AI is still everywhere, but brands are selling results instead of shouting “AI.” Marc points to privacy concerns and recent headlines as part of the reason. The show floor feels less like one giant theme and more like a mix of ideas that let people chase what interests them. They run through the biggest standouts. Clicks returns with two products. First, an updated MagSafe slide-out QWERTY keyboard accessory that works across devices. Second, the Clicks Communicator, a prototype Android 16 phone built around distraction-free communication, with a stripped-down interface and a clear “secondary device” pitch. Mitchell likes the idea, but questions whether most people want to carry two phones.Pebble makes a comeback at CES with the Pebble Round 2, a round watch with a full color e-ink display, built as an accessory, not a phone replacement. They also flag Pebble's new smart ring, priced around $70 to $75, with a microphone for quick voice memos and one-button reminders, positioned as a lower-cost, less intrusive option compared to higher-priced rings.Robots show up again, this time with a practical angle. Marc calls out LG's household robot, aimed at folding laundry, helping with kitchen tasks, and interacting with smart appliances. Mitchell immediately jumps to security risks, then lands on the real question: cost. These robots need to become mainstream enough to stop feeling like luxury items.Dell revives the XPS brand in a more serious way than a simple rebrand. Marc highlights the clean XPS branding, new 14- and 16-inch models, and fixes to past complaints. Mitchell adds that XPS still matters for people who want high-end performance without the gamer look.Samsung's Galaxy Trifold gets its official moment, but the bigger story is the booth teaser, a folding screen preview with no visible crease. They both want real video proof, not marketing images. The conversation turns to hinge engineering, materials, and the likely premium pricing of folding hardware.Then they hit the moment Mitchell has been waiting for: Lego Smart Bricks. They describe bricks with chips that recognize other bricks, plus built-in lights, sounds, music, and sensors that detect movement, rotation, pressure, and orientation. Marc adds the key detail: logic can run on the bricks themselves, triggering actions when parts tilt, separate, or reconnect. They predict companion app control, Bluetooth customization, and a big wave of sets starting with Star Wars, then Marvel.Subscribe and follow Your Tech Report for ongoing CES 2026 follow-ups, including interviews with CTA's Allie Fried and more guests from the show floor, plus check-ins with companies featured in past years.

The conversation jumps from LEGO's smart brick ambitions to the rise of toxic mom groups online, plus the internet's obsession with five-gallon popcorn buckets. Chris and Anne also weigh in on whether the Stranger Things finale deserves a do-over because no Lightning Round is complete without a strong pop culture opinion. ⏩ Tune in for the full episode here: https://youtu.be/j0UulTYE5_8 #LightningRound #RetailFastFive #OmniTalk #RetailCulture #PopCulture #ConsumerTrends #StrangerThings #LEGO

2025 is in the books, and 2026 has arrived! 2025 has been a rollercoaster ride in the world of collecting with all its ups and downs! Rokimoto was born, Thrilljoy had a rebirth, and Funko continued to decline. Our collecting habits changed, we rediscovered our love of trading cards, and went all in on VeeFriends. We have high hopes for 2026, and hopefully, we are correct. Lego started the year off with a bang by announcing the Smart Brick! As always, Collecting is the Way! Now, let's chat!

Send us a textA tiny AI hologram that sits on your desk and smiles back at you sounds futuristic… until you realize how fast novelty slides into cringe. We kick things off by roasting the CES gadget everyone will meme, then pivot to the ideas underneath: why ambient AI is sneaking into our workspaces, how customization keeps us hooked, and where the line sits between companion and coach. From there, we dig into LEGO's new interactive bricks, the promise of light and sound in creative builds, and the practical headaches around price, collectibility, and what happens when electronics age inside once-timeless sets.The conversation shifts gears into the car world, where Sony teases an EV and manufacturers keep pushing paid features. We talk about the trade-offs between convenience and control, why cars now feel like subscription platforms, and how that changes what “ownership” means. That spirals into a passionate riff on real-life utility: sedans vs SUVs vs minivans, hauling space for gear and pets, and choosing vehicles that match how we actually live—not just how they're marketed.Then we get personal. We lay out goals we'll track this year: getting back to lifting with a home rack, rebuilding a 1992 Volvo wagon, and opening our anime queue to genres we usually skip for fresh creative fuel. On the career side, we map a clean path to the CompTIA trifecta with Network+, and we get candid about money literacy—HYSA vs savings, CDs, brokerage accounts, T-bills, and starting the investing journey without the fluff. We also confront a tough truth: turning a hobby into a business can kill the joy. Photography paid, but it drained us. Barbecue tastes amazing, but meat prices crush margins. Gourmet mushrooms, though, thread the needle—science, repeatability, and steady demand with a lean setup and real market interest.If you've been waiting for the right moment to set goals you'll actually keep, consider this your cue. Write one down, make it smaller, and start today.

At the start of a new year, we're launching a new series on creativity—not as something reserved for artists or content creators, but as a core part of being human.In this message, we explore how **technology shapes our creativity**, our relationships, and even our spirituality. From smartphones in our pockets to bricks in the story of the Tower of Babel, the question isn't whether technology is good or bad—but whether we are using it creatively, or allowing it to use us.We look at:* Why creativity belongs to everyone, not just the “creative class”* What ancient stories like **Genesis 11 (Babel)** can teach us about modern technology* How efficiency, uniformity, and power can slowly erode human flourishing* The impact of screens and digital life on attention, relationships, and formation* Three practices for reclaiming creativity: **being curious, critical, and close**If you've ever wondered how to live faithfully, thoughtfully, and creatively in a tech-saturated world—this conversation is for you.

PREVIEW: MOUDHY AL-RASHID ON THE ANCIENT PRINTING PRESS OF UR Colleague Moudhy Al-Rashid. Author Moudhy Al-Rashid discusses her book Between Two Rivers, describing how ancient Mesopotamians used stamped bricks as an early "printing press." At the Great Ziggurat of Ur, builders efficiently stamped thousands of bricks with King Ur-Nammu's name and dedications to the moon god, preserving messages for millennia. 1932 LION GATE BABYLON
THE STORIES TOLD BY MESOPOTAMIAN BRICKS Colleague Moudhy Al-Rashid. Moudhy Al-Rashidexplains how millions of mud bricks reveal the history of ancient Mesopotamia, from the construction of massive temples to the 9-kilometer wall of Uruk. These bricks were often stamped with the names of kings to ensure their deeds were known to the gods. Beyond royal propaganda, bricks preserve intimate moments, such as the accidental paw prints of dogs or footprints of children left while the clay dried in the sun. NUMBER 2 1880 UR EXPEDITION

Hey Retro Gamers!For the holiday season this year I've decided to casually record a "12 Games of Christmas" series, in which I plan to share 12 video games that are in some way meaningful to me, or that will (hopefully) paint a picture of me as a gamer.I typically do a rapid-fire Q&A session with first-time guests to help you get to know their gaming tastes, but I've never done such a thing about myself for you, so here it is!Today's episode is Day 12! We made it! And for a very special day, I have a very special game. As of December 12th, 2025, if I HAAAAAAD to choose a game as the "Greatest Game of All Time" then it would be this one, a game I love very much and one that has already brought me just shy of 400 hours of festive, joyful playtime since its release, even though I haven't played more than an hour of that in 2025.Music Credits"Song of Storms" used under Creative Commons Attribution license.Provided by GameChopsProduced by Coffee Date Mastered by Dj CutmanComposed by Koji KondoOriginally from The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time

Independent investigative journalism, broadcasting, trouble-making and muckraking with Brad Friedman of BradBlog.com
As project managers, we spend a lot of time talking about tools, processes, and delivery frameworks—but far less time talking about the invisible structure that holds projects together: trust. In this Top Shelf Replay episode of Project Management Happy Hour, Kim Essendrup and Kate Anderson revisit one of the show's earliest and most enduring concepts: Trust Bricks. Originally recorded in 2018, this short but powerful episode explores how trust is built—not through grand gestures or heroic saves—but through consistent, everyday actions that compound over time. The core idea is simple: trust is predictability. When you repeatedly do what you say you'll do—whether that's sending meeting notes on time, honoring estimates, or showing up prepared—you lay one small Trust Brick at a time. Over weeks, months, and years, those bricks form a structure strong enough to withstand missed deadlines, bad news, or the occasional broken promise. Kim and Kate break down why Trust Bricks matter so much in project environments: Teams are more honest with you when they trust you Estimates improve when people believe they won't be punished for telling the truth Difficult conversations become easier when everyone believes you're on the same side Sponsors give you more latitude when your track record is consistent The conversation also explores what happens when trust breaks—and how the same Trust Brick approach can be used to rebuild credibility. Rather than trying to restore trust with a single "big win," the hosts argue that rebuilding starts small: partial deliverables, frequent check-ins, and deliberately meeting micro-commitments until confidence is restored. In the replay commentary, Kim and Kate reflect on how their thinking has evolved since the original recording. They discuss: The role of showing up consistently, even when no explicit promise was made How trust operates differently in virtual and remote teams Why strong performers can accidentally set expectations that lead to burnout How leaders vary widely in how much "trust damage" they tolerate before overreacting The episode also revisits the journey of Trust Bricks beyond the podcast, including Kim's experience delivering a TEDx talk on the topic and refining the framework into three enduring lessons: You are always building or breaking Trust Bricks—whether you realize it or not Missed expectations don't pause trust building; they actively tear it down Unspoken expectations are the fastest way to accidentally destroy trust This episode is a reminder that trust isn't soft, vague, or optional—it's a core delivery skill. If you want stakeholders who back you, teams who tell you the truth, and projects that don't require constant firefighting, it starts with sweating the small commitments. The next time you make a commitment—big or small—ask yourself: Am I laying a brick… or cracking one?
