This week's quiz: On 19 July, I asked you a question about RFI English journalist Dhananjay Khadilkar's video and article about the study of exoplanets, or extrasolar planets, which are planets outside of our solar system. As you read in Dhananjay's article “Swiss exoplanet pioneer reflects on Earth's place in the cosmos”, Didier Queloz, along with Michel Mayor, discovered the first exoplanet orbiting a solar-type star in 1995, which ushered in, as Dhananjay wrote, a new era in astronomy and planetary science. The two scientists won the 2019 Nobel Prize in Physics for their work. Dhananjay met with Didier Queloz, who told him, and I quote: “Looking for exoplanets is essentially looking for us.” What did Professor Queloz mean by that? You were to send in the answer to this question: According to Queloz, what is the essential reason for studying other planets? The answer is, to quote Dhananjay Khadilkar's article: “In essence, by studying other planetary systems, scientists are holding up a mirror to our own. Are the conditions that led to Earth's habitability common or exceedingly rare? Is our solar system an outlier, or just one example among countless others?” In addition to the quiz question, there was the bonus question: “Is it up to the State, the government, to decide what is fair, or what is just?” Do you have a bonus question idea? Send it to us! The winners are: RFI Listeners Club member Dipita Chakrabarty from New Delhi, India. Dipita is also the winner of this week's bonus quiz. Congratulations, Dipita, on your double win. Also on the list of lucky winners is RFI Listeners Club member Pradip Basak from Kerala, India, and RFI English listeners Debashis Gope from West Bengal, India; Liton Rahaman Khan from Naogaon, Bangladesh, and Rashidul Bin Somor, the General Secretary of the Source of Knowledge Club, also in Naogaon. Congratulations winners! Here's the music you heard on this week's program: The allegro di molto from the Symphony No 38 in C Major (the “Echo” symphony) by Franz Joseph Haydn, performed by the Austro-Hungarian Haydn Orchestra conducted by Adam Fischer; “Space Ambient” produced by Space Relax; “The Flight of the Bumblebee” by Nikolai Rimsky-Korsakov; “The Cakewalk” from Children's Corner by Claude Debussy, performed by the composer, and “Young at Heart” by Johnny Richards and Carolyn Leigh, sung by Connie Francis. Do you have a music request? Send it to thesoundkitchen@rfi.fr This week's question ... you must listen to the show to participate. After you've listened to the show, re-read Paul Myers' article “Dembélé and Bonmati win Ballon d'Or as PSG take team and coach prizes”, which will help you with the answer. You have until 20 October to enter this week's quiz; the winners will be announced on the 25 October podcast.

[School of Movies 2025] A bold new direction for the transforming robotic life forms. Fully digitally animated, with no need of Shia Lebeouf or Marky Mark, specifically an animated film theatrically released for the first time since 1986, and for the first time neither Peter Cullen nor Frank Welker is lending their voice to proceedings, despite this being an origin story for both Optimus Prime and Megatron. Instead Chris Hemsworth and Brian Tyree Henry step up to lend unexpectedly Shakespearean weight to the dramatic dissolution of a friendship between these two eternal foes. It's a Transformers movie that's actually about something for a change, rather than just a McGuffin hunt, and Bumblebee won't SHUT UP! Guest: Dan Hoeppner @MightyMegatron0 of Leftover Army Monsters

Grab Our NEW Peacemaker Inspired Tee https://www.rejectnationshop.com/ LIQUID IV: Visit http://www.liquidiv.com & use Promo Code: REJECTS With James Gunn's Superman out on VOD + Man of Tomorrow Announced, and Supergirl + Lanterns on the horizon, Greg, Roxy, & John are BACK for another Peacemaker Season 2 Reaction, Recap, Commentary, Breakdown, & Spoiler Review! Greg Alba, Roxy Striar, & John Humphrey jump into Peacemaker Season 2, Episode 4 — titled “Need I Say Door?” — from creator James Gunn (Guardians of the Galaxy, The Suicide Squad). Peacemaker (John Cena — The Suicide Squad, Bumblebee) is grappling with A.R.G.U.S. monitoring, a creeping suspicion that everything around him might not be what it seems, and the rising threat to his beloved eagle, Eagly. Meanwhile, there's a new antagonist on Eagly's trail: Red St. Wild (Michael Rooker — The Walking Dead, Guardians Vol 2), an eagle-hunting villain with his own ruthless agenda. Returning members of the cast include Danielle Brooks (Orange Is the New Black, The Color Purple) as Leota Adebayo; Freddie Stroma (Bridgerton, Jumanji: The Next Level) as Adrian Chase / Vigilante; Jennifer Holland (Brightburn, Birds of Prey) as Emilia Harcourt; Steve Agee (Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 2, Super) as John Economos; Robert Patrick (Terminator 2, The X-Files) as Auggie Smith / White Dragon; and newcomers like Sol Rodríguez as Sasha Bordeaux, Tim Meadows (Mean Girls, SNL) as ARGUS Agent Langston Fleury. “Need I Say Door?” amps up the intrigue with flashbacks showing Auggie's dark hunts, the increasingly fragile peace in Chris Smith's (Peacemaker's) life, and tension over whether his “perfect” reality is trustworthy. We get intense standoffs, creeping psychological doubt, and some visuals that highlight how far the show leans into surreal and high-stakes situations. It's one of the episodes that many viewers are already talking about for how it pulls the rug out and challenges what we know.

In this episode of the Microsoft Threat Intelligence Podcast, host Sherrod DeGrippo is joined by Microsoft researchers Kelsey Clapp and Anna Seitz to examine two major cybercrime campaigns. The team unpacks Storm 2561's use of SEO poisoning to distribute Trojanized software like SilentRoute and Bumblebee, stealing VPN credentials and paving the way for ransomware brokers. They also dive into Storm 1811's ReadBed malware, a loader deployed through bold social engineering tactics, such as fake IT help desk calls via Teams, that enable lateral movement and ransomware deployment. The discussion highlights how modern threat actors exploit trust, extend attack chains, and continually evolve their techniques, underscoring the importance of vigilance, strong security controls, and verifying before trusting. In this episode you'll learn: How Storm 2561 uses SEO poisoning to trick users into downloading Trojanized software The role of trust, urgency, and habit in social engineering tactics Practical steps organizations can take to block these threats and strengthen defenses Some questions we ask: Why are initial access loaders such a big risk for organizations? How are threat actors using fake IT help desk calls to gain access? What steps should defenders take to cut off these entry points?

Picture this: You're on the living room floor, making robot sound effects while your kid transforms Bumblebee for the 47th time today. But instead of being present, your brain is screaming about the dishes, that work email you forgot to send, and whether you remembered to put the chicken in the crockpot.If this hits a little too close to home, you're going to love this episode. I'm sharing the exact moment everything clicked for me - when I stopped seeing playtime as another obligation and started actually enjoying those moments with my son.What You'll Learn:The real reason mom guilt creeps in during playtime (hint: it's not because you're selfish)Why your brain won't shut off during kid activities - and how to quiet that mental chatterThe 3-month Transformer saga that taught me everything about being present vs. productiveHow present parenting actually boosts your productivity instead of killing itWhat to do when your kid ignores you after work (this behavior means something specific)One simple question that creates instant connection with moody kidsThe Truth About Mom Guilt During Playtime: It's not a character flaw - it's your subconscious sabotage patterns (hyperachiever, overthinker, restless energy) hijacking your focus. Once you learn to spot these patterns and disrupt them in real-time, everything changes. The laundry still gets folded, emails still get answered, but now you also get those sweet connection moments that actually energize you.
Ice hockey skills. An unbearable personality. Alex Pearson has it all.

He's a BOY?!Cue plenty of Mrs Doubtfire-esque shenanigans as Alex tries to help his sister's troop stay together, while trying to earn his father's respect and avoid the scrutiny of the evil Den Mother Dina Reams. Can Alex become a good role model for his adorable troop? Is anyone fooled by him calling himself Mrs Zamboni, putting cocktail sauce on his face and shrieking? And just what the hell is Camporee?

The 2nd part of the look of the Dark of the Moon line, some of the big boi's this time round with Prime, Megs, Sentinel and Shockwave.
Recently I was talking with one of my adult programs about successional and keystone species. Successional species are those early plants which come into disturbed landscapes, helping to knit the ecological neighbourhood back together. They are quick to come and quick to go, providing the land with nutrients to heal and grow. Keystone species are those species who are provide for many other forms of life. Their work in sustaining the community around them is vast relative to their abundance. They provide food and the place to eat it. The make space for life to thrive and sustain. If the keystone suddenly goes missing than the community make up will drastically change, often for the worse. Goldenrods, especially those which make up the Canada Goldenrod complex are some of the most important successional an keystone species in my area. Over the years I have investigated Goldenrod on different levels, from the technical and scientific to the intuitive and relational. Both vantage points have served in getting to know these amazing and powerful plants better. I decided to head out with a makeshift milkcrate studio to sit with the Goldenrod, Bumblebees and Crickets and make a show together. I hope this helps shed a warm golden glow on these essential components of the Great Lakes bioregion.To learn more :The Asters, Goldenrods and Fleabanes of Grey and Bruce Counties.

It's no secret that the Burlingame & Park crew has a soft spot for Omega, and ever since our "Twenty Years of the Planet Ocean" episode back in February of this year, the boys have been looking for an excuse to do a similar deep dive on the Seamaster Aqua Terra – the ultimate GADA (Go-Anywhere-Do-Anything) watch, and a watch that has a whole lot more collectability and range than most would expect.

This week on the Toy Power Podcast; we are still down a Scot, as he is still unwell. But that will not slow him down in contributing to this ep! Before we get into the main segments, we chat about Ben & Frank's latest Plastic Addiction, in the form of Transformers Blokees! Prior to chatting about the Superman Film itself, we focus on the Toy likeness compared to what the actor actually looks like! With a little Jurassic World banter in between. Then, without another moment to spare, we get right into the James Gunn driven film itself! We chat towards our Cinema experiences and start off with a non-spoiler discussion; before we head into a chat about the whole Film itself! Giving it our typical DVG rating out of 19 too. Then changing gears, we introduce a New segment - named: Variant Schmariant! We each pick two variants of a pre-existing character (in toy form) that just doesn't need to exist. We unearth some quite silly versions of characters that had a legitimate Toy Release; that clearly logic was not a concern at all!! Plus we tie a nice bow around the proposed Nick-Names for both Frank & Scot. Enjoy!!Support the show: http://patreon.com/toypowerpodcastSee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
