In this episode of Skin in the Game, Saxon Baum sits down with entrepreneur Chad Bronstein to discuss the journey that took him from selling Beanie Babies as a kid to building one of the fastest-growing sports leagues in America.Chad shares how an early obsession with sales and entrepreneurship shaped his career, leading him through the adtech world, multiple successful ventures, and eventually the launch of Real American Beer alongside wrestling icon Hulk Hogan. Along the way, he reflects on the highs and lows of building businesses, raising capital, navigating market downturns, and the lessons that only come from failure.The conversation also dives into the creation of Real American Freestyle (RAF), the professional wrestling league Chad founded after recognizing a major gap in the sport he loved growing up. What started as an idea fueled by his son's involvement in wrestling has quickly grown into a nationally televised league, selling out arenas and creating new opportunities for athletes beyond college and Olympic competition.Beyond the business stories, Chad talks about the importance of surrounding yourself with great people, building strong teams, staying resilient through adversity, and why trust and loyalty are often more valuable than any business strategy.Whether you're an entrepreneur, investor, athlete, or someone pursuing a big vision, this episode is packed with honest lessons on persistence, leadership, and what it really takes to build something that lasts.

In this episode, we explore the nature of grief through the lens of Internal Family Systems (IFS) with senior trainer Einat Bronstein. Drawing on the work of Francis Weller and other key grief theorists, we reflect on grief not as a problem to solve, but as a deeply human experience that calls for presence, witnessing, and integration. We discuss how cultural expectations and “collective burdens” shape the way grief is experienced, often leading to blocked or frozen processes. From an IFS perspective, grief is understood as a complex, non-linear experience carried by different parts of the internal system, particularly exiles. The conversation explores topics like: How IFS differs from stage-based and task-oriented models of grief - such as those of Elisabeth Kübler-Ross, John Bowlby, J. William Worden, and Robert NeimeyerWhat happens internally when we experience loss, and the roles of different parts in the grieving processWhy grief may feel stuck, and how Self-led witnessing can allow transformation and healingThe connection between present grief and earlier, unresolved lossesThe role of psychoeducation, ritual, and embodied expression in supporting griefWhat it means to “integrate” a loss within the IFS framework We also reflect on common pitfalls therapists may encounter when working with grief, and the deeper wisdom that can emerge from loss, about love, attachment, and the enduring presence of those we have lost. This episode is an invitation to approach grief with curiosity, compassion, and openness, honoring it as a doorway to connection, meaning, and inner transformation. We are excited to celebrate the launch of IFS Collected Wisdom: Conversations with Experienced Voices in Internal Family Systems a book that brings together voices, reflections, and lived experience from across the IFS community. This book was created from a desire to honor those voices, and to acknowledge that wisdom in IFS doesn't live in one place or one person. It lives in relationship, in experience, and in the field as it evolves. Thank you for being a listener, for being part of this community,  and for continuing to explore what becomes possible when Self leads. We hope that IFS Collected Wisdom can become a companion in your IFS journey. Here is a link to the IFS Collected Wisdom book contents.

In todays episode, Lindsay Keach Bronstein shares the journey to building a compassionate relationship with our bodies. We explore how tuning into bodily signals, practicing self-care, and shifting societal narratives can foster wellness and resilience, especially during life's transitions, illness and menopause for designing a life we can live inside of.   Key Topics: Building a compassionate relationship with the body Listening to bodily signals and intuition Shifting societal narratives around women's health   FOLLOW LINDSAY:  Join her on Substack: https://bodypartnership.substack.com/ Lindsays Website: https://feedhealth.com/     Follow Lisa: LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/lisamalianorman/ Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/lisamalia.evoke/ Join The Feminine Leadership Lounge: https://circle.lisamalia.co/join   Lindsay Keach Bronstein (MS, RDN, LDN, HC) is an integrative dietitian and health coach who has spent nearly two decades helping people transform their relationship with their bodies from projects to fix into caring, collaborative partnerships.

As he approached 50, Stanley Bronstein faced a sobering question: where would he be in five years if nothing changed? At nearly 367 pounds, he chose not surgery or shortcuts — but daily walking, nutritional shifts, and a decision to act permanently on what he already knew. What followed was not just weight loss, but the creation of a personal operating system for excellence. In this episode: The turning point that led to a 220+ pound transformation Why “get started again” matters more than motivation The difference between perfection and excellence Why you can't exercise your way out of a poor diet Expanding “intake” beyond food to thoughts and environment The powerful story behind the question: “What would Peggy do?” Because sometimes the next chapter begins not with inspiration — but with a decision you refuse to undo.

As Stanley Bronstein was turning 50, he had a "right now" moment and realized that if he did not start eating better, exercising, and stopping a few other bad habits, He would be dead within five years - so he changed his life and never looked back, losing 220+ pounds naturally - no drugs or surgery - going from a max of 367 to around 145 today through healthy nutrition and daily walking.

Min 5: 28 AÑOS DESPUÉS: EL TEMPLO DE LOS HUESOS (3 estrellas) Dirigida por Nia DaCosta y escrita por Alex Garland, 28 años después. El templo de los huesos continúa el universo inaugurado por 28 días después para adentrarse en un mundo donde la infección ya no es una catástrofe puntual, sino un estado permanente de la humanidad. Ambientada casi tres décadas después del brote del virus de la rabia, la película sigue a un grupo de supervivientes —interpretados por Jodie Comer, Aaron Taylor-Johnson y Ralph Fiennes— que descubre una comunidad aislada y aparentemente organizada, asentada sobre los restos físicos y morales del antiguo orden. Min 15. EL MAL (JUANMA BAJO ULLOA) 3 estrellas Dirigida por Juanma Bajo Ulloa, El mal es el estreno español más llamativo del fin de semana, un thriller psicológico que obliga al espectador a enfrentarse a sus propias sombras y a cuestionar la delgada línea entre fascinación y repulsión ante la violencia. La trama sigue a Belén Fabra, Natalia Tena y Tony Dalton —con apoyos de Fernando Gil, María Schwinning y Natalia Ruiz Risueño— en una historia donde Elvira, una ambiciosa periodista y escritora de sucesos interpretada por Fabra, recibe la inquietante propuesta de escribir la biografía de Martín (Tena), quien dice tener “talento†para ser el mayor asesino en serie de la Historia, lo que desencadena una espiral de compromisos éticos, obsesión y reflexión sobre la maldad inherente al ser humano. Min 20. EL HOMBRE MENGUANTE (FRANCIA) 3 estrellas Dirigida por Jan Kounen y escrita por Christophe Deslandes y el propio Kounen, El hombre menguante se estrena hoy viernes 16 de enero de 2026 en cines españoles, ofreciendo una nueva lectura del clásico de ciencia ficción basado en la novela de Richard Matheson que ha inspirado generaciones de cineastas. La película está protagonizada por Jean Dujardin —en un papel físico y emocionalmente exigente— junto a Marie-Josée Croze, Daphné Richard y Salim Talbi, en un relato que transforma lo cotidiano en un vasto y peligroso paisaje cuando el protagonista comienza a perder tamaño de forma inexplicable. Min. 27: SI PUDIERA TE DARÍA UNA PATADA (3 estrellas) Dirigida y escrita por Mary Bronstein, 'Si pudiera, te daría una patada' irrumpe en salas como una de las piezas más estimulantes del cine independiente. La película, protagonizada de forma casi absoluta por Rose Byrne, sigue a Linda, una madre atrapada en una sucesión de crisis simultáneas: la enfermedad inexplicable de su hija, la ausencia emocional de su marido, una desaparición inquietante y una relación cada vez más tóxica con su propio terapeuta. Bronstein construye un relato que oscila entre el drama, la comedia negra y el thriller psicológico para retratar el desgaste mental de una mujer obligada a sostenerlo todo sin espacio para venirse abajo. Min 32. TURNO DE GUARDIA (4 estrellas) Turno de guardia es un retrato intenso y humanista de la cotidianidad sanitaria que sacude al espectador desde sus primeros minutos con una propuesta formal audaz y una mirada profundamente empática hacia el personal de enfermería. Dirigida y escrita por Petra Biondina Volpe, la cineasta suiza emplea la jornada de una enfermera —Floria, interpretada con aplomo y verdad por Leonie Benesch— como vehículo narrativo y moral para explorar la presión, la precariedad y la enorme responsabilidad que conlleva cuidar de otros en un entorno donde los segundos importan y los recursos escasean. Min 35: LA MIRADA DEL FLAMENCO (3'5 estrellas) La misteriosa mirada del flamenco es una de las óperas primas más audaces del cine latinoamericano reciente, una fábula cargada de política, amor y paranoia que explora la violencia simbólica y real contra las minorías desde el corazón del desierto chileno. Dirigida por Diego Céspedes, la película fusiona elementos del western clásico, el realismo mágico y el coming-of-age para construir un relato que, aunque situado en un pueblo minero de los años ochenta, tiene ecos universales: el miedo a lo diferente, la construcción de la familia elegida y la violencia social alimentada por el prejuicio. Min 38: LA PELÍCULA DE TU VIDA, CON ALBERTO TORRES El compositor y productor toledano Alberto Torres, responsable de la BSO del corto de ficción nominado al Goya 2026 "Una cabeza en la pared", celebra sus opciones de premio desvelándonos por qué El piano (1993), la película dirigida por Jane Campion y protagonizada por Holly Hunter, es la película de su vida. MIn 46: ESPECIAL BSO JAMES DEAN: EL GIGANTE Y REBELDE INMORTAL El 70 aniversario del estreno de una película tan colosal como icónica, 'Gigante' (1956) nos sirve de excusa perfecta para zanjar una asignatura pendiente y rendir tributo musical a la figura de James Dean. Nuestro crítico musical, Ángel Luque, selecciona algunos de los temas más representativos de las tres películas que nos dejó como legado. "Al este del Edén" (1955) 'Rebelde sin causa' (1955) y su trabajo póstumo, la mencionada 'Gigante' (1956).

In this special year-end episode of Inside the Network, we're joined by two of the most trusted strategic advisors in cybersecurity - Dino Boukouris, Managing Partner at Altitude Cyber, and Sam Bronstein, Partner at AXOM Partners. Between them, they've worked on billions of dollars in cybersecurity M&A, helped founders navigate exits to the world's largest tech companies, and advised the CEOs behind some of the biggest public and private deals in the industry. In this episode, which also happens to be the 20th episode of Inside the Network, we break down what really happened across the cybersecurity landscape in 2025, from customer buying patterns and budget constraints to the $96B in M&A deal volume. Dino and Sam share insights on what's driving consolidation, how buyers think about valuation and timing, and what defines a hot company in 2026 (hint: it's not just growth). We talk about how mega-deals like Wiz and CyberArk are reshaping competitive dynamics in the industry, why SASE, identity, and security for AI have been the most active M&A themes, and what founders need to understand about building relationships with buyers long before they're ready to exit. Sam and Dino explain that founders who achieve the best outcomes usually build relationships with potential acquirers over many years, and break down why many late-stage founders are likely to choose acquisition over IPO in the coming cycle.We close with tactical advice for founders heading into 2026: how to think about your board and investors, what metrics you'll be judged on, and how to align your capital strategy with your long-term goals. And yes, we also talk about race cars, zero interest rates, outcome-based pricing, and what Palo Alto Networks might buy next.

In this episode of the No Film School Podcast, GG Hawkins speaks with writer-director Mary Bronstein about her searing psychological comedy-drama If I Had Legs, I'd Kick You. The film, starring Rose Byrne, Conan O'Brien, Christian Slater, and A$AP Rocky, explores the emotional breakdown of a woman navigating a mysterious illness in her child, an absentee husband, and a dangerously dependent relationship with her therapist. Premiering at Sundance and earning Rose Byrne a Silver Bear at Berlinale, the film has received critical acclaim for its raw emotional honesty and darkly comedic tone.

(12:49) "By the time we get to set, there is nothing you could do that would be wrong." (30:34) "My struggle is a creative one, not a commercial one." (42:08) "You don't wait for permission."

Mary Bronstein, Rose Byrne, Conan O'Brien, and Christian Slater discuss If I'd Had Legs I'd Kick You with Film Comment editor and NYFF Talks programmer Devika Girish at the 63rd New York Film Festival. The nightmarish stresses of motherhood and work are pushed to their absurdist extremes in Mary Bronstein's stellar piece of cinematic anxiety, starring a bravura Rose Byrne (Berlinale Silver Bear winner) as a woman on the verge of something far beyond a nervous breakdown. The 63rd New York Film Festival is presented in partnership with Rolex.

1/4: This file introduces the early lives of George Gamow and Fred Hoyle. George Gamow (Georgy Antonovich Gamow) was born in Odessa in March 1904. His father, Anton Gamow, taught Lev Bronstein (later Leon Trotsky). Gamow attended Petrograd University (now St. Petersburg), studying under Alexander Friedmann, who developed solutions to Einstein's general relativity describing universal expansion. After Friedmann's death in 1925, Gamow switched to quantum and nuclear physics, discovering alpha particle decay and quantum tunneling. He went to Niels Bohr's Institute in Copenhagen. Disliking communist intrusion into science, he attempted escaping the Soviet Union via rubber kayak across the Black Sea to Turkey, but storms forced them back. Niels Bohr arranged their escape via the 1933 Solvay conference, eventually reaching George Washington University. Fred Hoyle was born in 1915 in West Yorkshire; his mother played classical music for silent films, and Hoyle learned reading from film subtitles.

Donna Adelson Trial: FBI Agents and Audio Expert Unravel Coded Conversations The Trial of Donna Adelson continued with three key witnesses who each added new dimensions to the state's case against the woman prosecutors say orchestrated the murder-for-hire plot that killed law professor Dan Markel. First up was FBI Special Agent Louis Bronstein, who walked jurors through the undercover surveillance operation that captured Charlie Adelson and Katherine Magbanua discussing the fallout from the FBI's infamous “bump.” His testimony gave jurors a behind-the-scenes look at how investigators staged, recorded, and preserved crucial evidence—evidence prosecutors argue shows Donna's family scrambling to contain a conspiracy. Next was forensic audio expert James McElveen, who helped decode the recordings at the heart of the prosecution's case. In a restaurant filled with background noise and distractions, McElveen explained how he enhanced and clarified the conversations so jurors could hear the words prosecutors believe expose the coded language of the Adelson circle—phrases like “gifts,” “cards,” and “cars” that may have carried far more sinister meaning. Finally, FBI Agent Brian Kendall took the stand to present additional surveillance and investigative details. His testimony tied the pieces together, showing how agents tracked movements, analyzed behavior, and built the narrative of a family under pressure. Kendall's account brought the investigation out of the abstract and back into the reality of Donna Adelson's alleged role in holding the scheme together. Together, Bronstein, McElveen, and Kendall delivered a day of testimony that blended surveillance, science, and strategy. For the jury, it was a layered presentation of how investigators say Donna Adelson operated as the mastermind, pulling strings from behind the scenes while her family carried out the plan. #DonnaAdelsonTrial #DanMarkelMurder #TrueCrimeTrial #CourtroomDrama #MurderForHireCase #DonnaAdelson #CharlieAdelson #WiretapEvidence #JusticeForDanMarkel #TrialCoverage Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?
