In this episode I'm continuing my investigations into the science of nutrition and health. Today I'm looking at the effect that diet has on longevity. We know that eating poorly can kill you in any number of ways, but is there a fountain of youth out there? Can we extend lifespan merely by choosing the right foods? My guest today will have something to say on this topic. Dr. Valter Longo has thirty years of experience in the field of longevity and healthy eating. He is the Director of the Longevity Institute at the University of Southern California – Leonard Davis School of Gerontology, Los Angeles, and the Director of the Longevity and Cancer Program at the The Italian Foundation for Cancer Research Institute of Molecular Oncology in Milan, Italy. He is the author of the best seller “The Longevity Diet” and the 2 Italian books “Alla tavola della longevità” (“At the Table of Longevity”), and “La longevità inizia da bambini” (“Longevity Begins in Childhood”). Professor Longo is also the scientific director of the Create Cures Foundation and the Valter Longo Foundation. In 2018, TIME Magazine named Professor Longo as one of the 50 most influential people in health care for his research on fasting-mimicking diets as a way to improve health and prevent diseases.

This is a special episode of the Angry Old Man Podcast where we participated, along with a large number of podcasters around the world, in the Live Stream for the Cure 2023 to help raise funds to find the cure for cancer. Our freind Nicholas Haskins started Live Stream for the Cure in 2017 to raise funds to fight cancer, because he lost one of his best friends to a rare form of cancer, when his friend was just 23 years old. As part of Immunotherapy Month's fundraisers, all donations will be doubled by Cancer Research Institutes's benefactors (if they are made in May and June). In the past six years we've raised over $70,000 for the Cancer Research Institute. So far this year we raised over $20,000 and if you'd like to help, please click the link below.

I'm sexy, I'm cute, I'm popular to boot... the introductory scene to Bring It On is infamous in 2000s pop culture for its tongue-in-cheek look at the world of cheerleading.Bring It On though, was born of a fascination with competitive cheerleading, and the fact that as it's seen as primarily a women's sport, and not really a sport in itself, despite the skill and athleticism necessary. Writer Jessica Bendinger knew she had something special, and it took many pitches to get a studio to believe in her cheerleader comedy, rooted deeply in the politics of cheerleading, as well as cultural appropriation and white guilt, something not many 2000s high school comedies would touch with a ten-foot spirit stick.But there was another cheerleader movie being made at the same time, one that would steal a lead cast member and tempt another...

Hustlers was always going to be a tough sell. Based on the true story of a group of strippers who conned rich, white men, writer and director Lorene Scafaria found herself trying to sell it to... rich white men, who were less than enthusiastic about it.The key was the involvement of Jennifer Lopez. Not only was it the casting of Scafaria's dreams, Lopez had the skill and connections to make the production a reality. She would also receive lavish praise for her performance as Ramona Vega, and the whole cast would achieve a newfound respect and admiration for strippers through the training they undertook to appear in the film.While the movie didn't garner the accolades many thought it should have, it's a wonderful time capsule of the late 2000s fashion and music of the era, and the dynamic between Constance Wu and Jennifer Lopez grounds it in heartbreaking reality.Drain the clock, not the c*ck...I would love to hear your thoughts on Hustlers (2019) !CONTACT....

Hi everyone and welcome back to Nikoli's Kitchen! This week is your first mid-season episode, and though I fully intended it to be shorter, I just missed being on the mic so much and I had some things to get out. In the first half of the show I'll talk about being on a plateau and overwhelming myself too much, and then in the back half we talk about the glazed donuts I made live on the air during this year's Livestream for the Cure. A special thanks to all of my listeners and supporters for coming out and supporting the event! We smashed our goal once again and ended up raising over $23,000 for the Cancer Research Institute. From the bottom of my heart, thank you. Featured Recipe for this Episode I followed the recipe pretty much to the letter from Bless This Mess for donuts, so I'll just link it here! https://www.blessthismessplease.com/pioneer-womans-glazed-donuts/ Donut Glaze 2 c powdered sugar 1 t vanilla 2 T heavy cream 2 T milk Combine all ingredients in a bowl and whisk together until combined (dribble in a bit more milk if this is too thick, it shouldn't be thick like batter but be a bit thinner). When the donuts are hot out of the oil, place in the glaze and then flip to coat it all over and then remove. Important Links (All links open in a new window) Main Website Subscribe on Patreon!

On May 19that 9am, Livestream For The Cure kicked off with a goal to raise $20,000 for The Cancer Research Institute. On May 20th, two behemoths met in the ring and duked out for supremacy. Who won? Who’s next? You decide. That’s right – with Rob as Quizmaster, Somethingcast’s Hatton took on the Maestro of Livestream for the Cure, Nicholas Haskins in movie quote trivia. If you missed the stream, we thought you would enjoy hearing what happens as these two people play a brutal game of cinema chess … but before you think you know what’s going to happen, ask yourself – what if they weren’t facing each other? Are you ready for this battle of wits? Well, at least you are… but before we get the episode started, while this year’s goal was reached, the final tally hasn’t been taken yet. There is still time to bring the number even higher, and remember, all of the money goes to the Cancer Research Institute. Click here to donate. Ok, here we quote! Full Episode

Heroes Through the Decades ass kicks into the '90s, with Wesley Snipes' cool, charismatic badass vampire hunter - Blade! In 1971 the Comics Code Authority updated its code criteria, which had been in place since 1954, relaxing the rules on the depiction of horror in comics. For the first time, vampires were allowed in comic books. Marvel's first pseudo-vampire character, Morbius the Living Vampire sowed the seeds for the second; Blade the Vampire Hunter. Wesley Snipes was originally interested in making an adaptation of Black Panther before his attention was piqued with a movie adaptation of Blade. In many ways, it feels like the character of Blade was made for Wesley Snipes, and he not only decided to star in Blade, but also produce it through his production company Amen Ra Films. Snipes was literally and figuratively invested in this production. Snipes, along with writer David S. Goyer (who fought against studios trying to whitewash the character) and director Stephen Norrington, formed a trifecta of creative passion for Blade; for his story, the homage paid to Hong Kong action films and to make this story as bloody, gory and fun as it could be. Insert very '90s techno rave music here. IT'S BLOOD RAVE TIME! I would love to hear your thoughts on Blade (1998) ! GET IN TOUCH....

Hello everyone and welcome back to Nikoli's Kitchen- the season three FINALE!! I can't believe we've come this far, and I'm so grateful to all of my amazing listeners for your support. This week on the show I'm talking about blackened fish tacos made with salmon and topped with a delicious pico de gallo... and reading a letter I've written to myself. Thank you all so much for your amazing support. Season 4 should kick off sometime in June, but stay tuned to the feed for plenty of quick bites and short episodes ahead of the premiere. The 6th Annual Livestream for the Cure will take place from May 19th - May 21st, as we work with content creators and podcast partners around the world to raise $20,000 for the Cancer Research Institute. This is our sixth year, and over the past five we've raised over $50,000. Please help us add to that total and help us spread the word by sharing promos for the event and information leading up to it. Learn more by visiting livestreamforthecure.com. Featured Recipe for this Episode Blackening Seasoning: 2.5 lb Salmon (skin on), portioned 2 T smoked paprika 2 T dark brown sugar 2 T chili powder 1 T chipotle chili powder 2 T salt 2 T black pepper 2 T garlic powder Combine all ingredients in a large bowl and whisk together. Liberally spread half of the seasoning over the flesh of the salmon. Grill at 375° skin-side down for 8-10 minutes or until your filets release easily from the grill. Flip the salmon over and remove the skin (it should come off very easily). Add the remainder of your seasoning. Grill for an additional 8-10 minutes. Flip again to blacken the seasoning, 1-2 minutes (your salmon should only need 20 minutes tops on the grill unless it is REALLY thick- mine was about 1" thick at its thickest part). Remove the salmon and allow it to rest. Tortillas: ~| This recipe is adapted from https://www.gimmesomeoven.com/homemade-corn-tortillas |~ 2 c corn flour (masa harina) 1-1/2 to 2 c hot water Zest of 2 limes 1 T chili powder 1 t salt Add your corn flour and sea salt to a large bowl and whisk to combine. Add 1 c of hot water and begin stirring together. Dribble in additional water and stir until your dough comes together and forms a ball; it will have roughly the consistently of clay or play dough. Cover the bowl with a damp paper towel and rest for 10 minutes. Flatten your dough into a rough rectangle on your countertop about 1" thick. Using a knife or dough cutter, cut into 9 equal pieces and cover with a damp table cloth. Heat a cast iron skillet over mid-high heat. Roll out your dough between pieces of parchment paper, or use a tortilla press to press them out. Cook for 45-60 seconds per side in the skillet and remove from the heat. Pico de Gallo: 1 large onion, finely diced 10 cloves of garlic, minced 1 c cilantro, chopped 6 roma tomatoes, finely diced Zest of 2 limes 2 T lime juice Salt and pepper to taste Build your tacos with romaine lettuce, topped with basmati rice (I made mine with coconut milk & water, zest of 2 limes, and 1/2 c chopped cilantro). Top that with the salmon and top that with pico de gallo. Serve with a lime wedge. Important Links (All links open in a new window) Main Website Subscribe on Patreon!

Heroes Through the Decades kapows into the 1980s, and is there any superhero as ubiquitous as Batman? Found in comics, in movies and TV, on lunchboxes, as toys and as one of the best-known silhouettes in the world, Batman's omnipresence in pop culture might be commonplace today, but while Batman was a hugely popular comic book series (and '60s TV show!), the Caped Crusader as we know him shifted into popular culture in 1989, not only with the release of this movie, but with BATMANIA! Batman was a movie built from the ground up for merchandising potential, and that famous black and yellow Batman logo adorned everything in the run-up to the release of this movie, including clothing, trading cards and bags. Teaser posters were stolen from bus stops and subway stations. Pre-production of Batman was long and arduous, with fan expectations at fever pitch, and when Michael Keaton's name was announced, 50,000 letters of complaint were sent to the production. This episode also pays its respect to the late Bill Finger, a man who was never originally credited for co-creating Batman, and it took a novelist and documentary filmmaker's persistence to get Finger the posthumous credit he deserved. I would love to hear your thoughts on Batman (1989) ! GET IN TOUCH....

Hello everyone and welcome back to another episode of Nikoli's Kitchen, with massive apologies for the delay in getting this into your ears- prep for the Livestream for the Cure has overwhelmed me of late. This week on the show, I talk about letting go of anger and trying to work to make the world a better place, and then I talk about the wins (and failures) I experienced trying to make angel food cake from scratch. Pro tip: Buy a tube pan. Thank you all so much for listening! The 6th Annual Livestream for the Cure will take place from May 19th - May 21st, as we work with content creators and podcast partners around the world to raise $20,000 for the Cancer Research Institute. This is our sixth year, and over the past five we've raised over $50,000. Please help us add to that total and help us spread the word by sharing promos for the event and information leading up to it. Learn more by visiting livestreamforthecure.com. ~| In this week's episode I talk about my failures to make the recipe adapted from Cake by Courtney. I believe that was because I still followed the baking instructions for the tube pan instead of instructions more meant for loaf pans. The first time I made angel food cake was from a recipe adapted from https://www.chocolatemoosey.com/angel-food-cake-in-a-loaf-pan/. For the recipe listed below I tried to adapt the instructions from this recipe for loaf pans, which will yield a much better result. |~ Featured Recipe for this Episode ~| This recipe is largely based on the recipe from Cake by Courtney found at https://cakebycourtney.com/angel-food-cake/. |~ 1 c all-purpose flour & 2 T cornstarch OR 1 c + 2 T cake flour 1-3/4 c sugar 1/4 t salt 1-1/2 t cream of tartar zest of 3 lemons OR 2 oranges 13 egg whites Preheat oven to 325°. Combine 1 c of your sugar, the flour & cornstarch, and salt in a bowl and whisk to combine. Sift them through a mesh strainer four times. Add your egg whites to a large bowl or the bowl of a stand mixer. Whisk or beat the egg whites on mid-high. When they start to foam, add your cream of tartar and zest. Slowly add the remaining 3/4 c of sugar while the egg whites continue to beat. Stop beating the egg whites when you reach soft peaks- they should form a peak as you pull the whisk/beaters out of the bowl, and then the peak will fall. Sift your dry ingredients into the egg whites in four batches, folding them in gently between batches (literally JUST until mixed). Pour the batter into two ungreased 9x5" loaf pans and place them onto a large baking tray together. Bake for 45 to 55 minutes at 325° or until brown and no longer sticky on top. Don't open the oven until you're sure it's done. Make sure your batter is set by shaking the pans slightly to see if they still have a liquidy jiggle in the middle. Remove from the oven and turn the loaf pans upside down and rest the handles on two things of equal height (I used cans of beans!) to allow air to cool the cake but so it doesn't collapse. Let it cool for an hour before removing from the pan to serve. Lemon Icing 1 c powdered sugar zest of 1 lemon 1 T lemon juice 1 T heavy cream yellow food coloring (for extra yellow hue) Combine all of the ingredients in a large bowl and whisk together vigorously until smooth.

Is it a bird? Is it a plane? No, it's Verbal Diorama's Heroes Across the Decades miniseries, continuing into the 1970s! Whether you know him as Clark Kent, Kal-El, the Man of Steel, the Man of Tomorrow, or just as Superman, that famous tights-and-cape combo emblazoned with the S on his chest is a symbol of a lot of things: Hope, courage, freedom, love... truth, justice and the American way, and a movie with a rich history in comic books, that was made in part because of Zorro, and in another due to 1966's Batman. The late Christopher Reeve is perfectly cast as both Clark Kent and Superman, in a landmark superhero film by the late Richard Donner. Donner's personality clashes with father-and-son producers Alexander and Ilya Salkind led to him being fired from Superman II, despite him completing reportedly 75% of the sequel....

Hello one and all and welcome to a brand new Nikoli's Kitchen! This week, I take on Nashville Hot Chicken, something I never knew existed and I'm so thrilled to have found it! I also talk about some things that were stirred up on Twitter lately. How do you deal with detractors? Thank you so much for listening! The 6th Annual Livestream for the Cure will take place from May 19th - May 21st, as we work with content creators and podcast partners around the world to raise $20,000 for the Cancer Research Institute. This is our sixth year, and over the past five we've raised over $50,000. Please help us add to that total and help us spread the word by sharing promos for the event and information leading up to it. Learn more by visiting livestreamforthecure.com. Featured Recipe for this Episode Spice Rub 3 T salt 1-1/2 T smoked paprika 1 T onion powder 1 T garlic powder 2 T black pepper 2 t Turmeric 1 t ginger 2 t ground red cayenne pepper 1/4 t allspice Combine all ingredients in a bowl and whisk together. Reserve out 2 T, one for the marinade, one for the hot sauce mix- the rest goes into the dredge. Marinade 2 c buttermilk 1/4 c hot sauce 1 T spice rub 1 whole roasting chicken Combine all ingredents in a large bowl and whisk together. This was enough for 1 large roasting chicken, broken down into quarters (wings removed). Marinate for 24-48 hours. Dredge 1-1/2 c flour 1/2 c cornstarch Remaining Spice mix Combine all ingredients in a bowl and whisk together. Remove your chicken and place on a rack above a baking tray, allowing the excess marinade to drip off. Dredge the chicken in the flour mixture and return to the rack, allowing it to rest for 10 minutes. Dunk back in the buttermilk, then dredge again and return it to the rack, letting it rest another 10-15 minutes before frying. Making your chicken! Preheat your oven to 400°. Heat your oil to 375°. Fry your chicken for 5-7 minutes, or until the coating is a beautiful golden brown color. You may need to do this in batches. While your chicken is frying, clean the rack and baking tray you used during dredging, then line the tray with foil. Transfer the chicken to the baking tray and place into the oven for 25-35 minutes (this will highly depend on the size of your chicken, mine took about 35 minutes in the oven after frying). Remove the chicken from the oven and place on a paper towel-lined tray to rest. Hot oil mix 1 T spice mix 2 T brown sugar 1 T smoked paprika 1 t cayenne 1 T garlic powder 1 c oil from frying While your chicken is resting, prepare your hot oil mix. Combine all of the dry spices in a bowl and whisk together. Place them in a small skillet over mid heat and warm them for a few minutes, allowing them to release some of their oils. Remove from the heat. Add the 1 c oil from frying and mix together well. Brush the oil over the finished chicken and serve.

In the first episode of my Heroes Through the Decades miniseries, I'm starting in the sixties, and the crowing jewel of Ray Harryhausen's stellar career, with his trademark glorious stop-motion creature set pieces, in a movie I grew up watching - Jason and the Argonauts. Jason may be the hero on-screen, but Harryhausen is the hero behind it. From its basis in the Greek myth of Jason and the Golden Fleece, to Ray Harryhausen's early career and the influence he had seeing King Kong (1933) to becoming the protégé of Willis H. O'Brien (the animator of King Kong), Harryhausen would end up surpassing his mentor in every way and became a one-man behemoth of Hollywood visual effects, influencing Peter Jackson, George Lucas and Steven Spielberg, amongst others. This episode was so much fun to put together and will definitely not be my last foray into the work of Harryhausen, a man who irrevocably changed Hollywood and defined the modern blockbuster in more ways than one. I would love to hear your thoughts on Jason and the Argonauts (1963) ! GET IN TOUCH....

Hello everyone and welcome to a brand new episode of Nikoli's Kitchen! Today we're resurrecting an old recipe from the RestauRant days as I give my almond flour berry pancake recipe a bit of an upgrade, and decided to pair it with a beautiful breakfast hash made with sausage, potatoes, and honeycrisp apples! Thank you so much for listening! The 6th Annual Livestream for the Cure will take place from May 19th - May 21st, as we work with content creators and podcast partners around the world to raise $20,000 for the Cancer Research Institute.

Featured Recipe for this Episode Homemade Almond Berry Pancakes 1 c all-purpose flour 1 c almond flour 1/4 c powdered sugar 1 egg- separate the white and yolk 1/2 t vanilla 1-1/2 t baking powder 1/2 t salt 4 T butter, cut into cubes and softened to room temperature 1 cup preferred berries 1-1/2 c almond milk Sift together the dry ingredients into a large bowl. In a separate bowl, combine your egg yolk, berries, milk, and vanilla. Whip your egg whites with an electric mixer until they reach soft peaks. Mix your butter into your dry ingredients, so you get some crumbly bits and small bits of butter throughout the flour mixture. Mix your milk & berry mixture into the flour mixture JUST until combined- don't over-mix. Fold your egg whites into the batter just until combined. Pour your batter onto a heated non-stick skillet and cook for 3-4 minutes, flipping once when bubbles start coming up through the middle of the batter. Berry Compote 16 oz (1 lb) Preferred berries 1/4 c sugar 2 c water Combine ingredients in a saucepan and reduce by 2/3 over medium-high heat. You can strain the berry pulp out to truly make this syrup-like instead of a compote. 4 large russett potatoes, cubed 2 honeycrisp apples, cubed 2 shallots, diced 1 c preferred sausage, grilled and chopped 1 T fresh rosemary, finely chopped 1 T fresh sage, finely chopped 1/2 c white wine Eggs (as many as you want served over it) Wing Sauce (optional) Salt, pepper, nutmeg, cinnamon (to taste) ~| Remember when preparing your ingredients you want everything chopped uniformly! |~ Prepare your potatoes ahead of time and boil them in salt water until they are soft around the edges with just a bit of bite to the middle (you want them to be about half done). Remove from the boiling water and rinse in cold water to stop them cooking and store until ready to use. Add a drizzle of your preferred oil/fat to a VERY large skillet over mid heat (seriously, this makes a lot). Add your shallots and begin cooking them, adding a sprinkle of salt to start sweating them down. Once they get transulent and start to brown, add your white wine. Continue to cook until most of your liquid is gone. Add your sage and rosemary and stir, cooking for about a minute to bring out some of those oils. Add more of the oil/fat you're using here and heat it, then add your potatoes. Season with salt and pepper and cook your potatoes until they are nicely browned on all sides. Add the apples and sausage, then season with nutmeg and cinnamon (a little of both goes a long way since it's a savory dish). Toss everything together very well until everything is evenly distributed and coated. Continue cooking the hash until the apples have started to soften- I wanted the apples to still have a bit of bite to them, so I only let them cook halfway. Serve topped with a fried egg (or few) and a dollop of your favorite wing sauce. Important Links (All links open in a new window) Main Website Subscribe on Patreon!

What does a scanner see? Into the head? Down into the heart? Does it see into me? Into us? Clearly or darkly? I hope it sees clearly because I can't any longer see into myself. I see only murk. I hope for everyone's sake the scanners do better, because if the scanner sees only darkly the way I do, then I'm cursed and cursed again. Welcome to the 150th episode of Verbal Diorama, and an episode on two things this podcast is renowned for: animation and Keanu Reeves! Richard Linklater's 2006 movie A Scanner Darkly is based on the semi-autobiographical novel by Philip K. Dick, in turn based on his amphetamine addiction in the early '70s, and the resulting psychosis he experienced. Making A Scanner Darkly using interpolated rotoscoped animation was the ideal choice for a dystopian, drug-fuelled movie that's so disassociated with reality. The live-action portion of the movie was filmed without incident, but when it came to the animation, time and budgetary concerns would cause the original senior animation team to walk out six months into production. They wanted more time and more money to finish the project. Rather than grant them their wish, the producers would fire and replace them... I would love to hear your thoughts on A Scanner Darkly !

Hi everyone and welcome back to a brand new Nikoli's Kitchen! This week I'm giving a swing at something I've never done in the name of Gai Yang Chicken, which is Thai BBQ chicken typically spatchcocked and cooked over coals in the streets of Thailand. Also this week, I continue on last week's thoughts about celebrating all of the little wins in your life, and how to continue to believe in yourself even when you fail or are set back. Thank you so much for listening! The 6th Annual Livestream for the Cure will take place from May 19th - May 21st, as we work with content creators and podcast partners around the world to raise $20,000 for the Cancer Research Institute. This is our sixth year, and over the past five we've raised over $50,000. Please help us add to that total and help us spread the word by sharing promos for the event and information leading up to it. Learn more by visiting livestreamforthecure.com. All this month, Podchaser is donating 25 cents per review to the World Central Kitchen to help feed refugees from Ukraine. Please follow Nikoli's Kitchen on Podchaser at https://www.podchaser.com/users/nikoliskitchen and leave a 5-star review for the show and my episodes. Best of all, for every comment or review I reply to, the donation is doubled! Please help support my show and at the same time help feed people in need. Featured Recipe for this Episode Gai Yang Marinade 1 whole chicken 2 T lemongrass, white part only, thinly sliced OR 1 T lemon zest & 1 T fresh ginger 1 t white pepper 1 t black pepper 10 cloves of garlic, roughly chopped 10 stalks of cilantro 1 shallot, roughly chopped 1 t coriander 2 T fish sauce 2 T palm sugar, roughly chopped 1 red chili, roughly chopped 2 T soy sauce 2 T dark soy sauce 1 t Turmeric 2 T vegetable oil Nam Jim Jaew (dipping sauce) 1 T cilantro, finely chopped 1 T lime juice 1 T toasted sticky rice, finely ground 1 T red pepper, finely diced 1 T fish sauce 2 T tamarind paste 2 T palm sugar, finely chopped 1 T hot water 1 T scallions, finely diced 1 T shallots, finely diced 1 t dark soy sauce ~| Note: I broke down a whole chicken for this and this was more than enough marinade for two split breasts and two leg quarters, including enough to baste it on the grill several times. If you're making more than four pieces or so of chicken, you may want to double the marinade recipe. |~ Break down your chicken into split breasts and leg quarters. Save your wings, the spine, and any other parts for future chicken stock. Combine all of the marinade ingredients in a food processor and blend until combined. Pour the marinade over your chicken and marinate for up to 48 hours. Set up your charcoal grill so most of your coals are on half of it, creating a "warm" and a "cool" side where the chicken won't receive much direct heat on the "cool" side. Grill the chicken skin-side up on the cool side for 35-45 minutes (depends on the size of your chicken). Baste your chicken every 10-15 minutes with the leftover marinade (I had enough to do this twice). Flip the chicken over and place it skin-side down on the "warm" side for just a few minutes until the skin crisps up. Babysit the chicken at this phase- you don't want the skin to burn! Remove your chicken and let it rest; while it does, prepare your dipping sauce. For the Nam Jim Jaew, combine all of your ingredients into a bowl and stir. You want to make sure you get small cuts on everything so there aren't big chunks of anything. Serve in a small dipping cup with your chicken. My first attempt at this was served with basmati rice, made as directed replacing half of the water with coconut milk and adding 2 T cilantro and 2 T lime zest with some salt.

Hello everyone and welcome back to another episode of Nikoli's Kitchen! This week with episode 50 rolling around, I wanted to take the opportunity to celebrate by going back to the very first episode of the show and taking another look at the brownies I made. Instead of making them with red wine syrup and ganache, I made them with an Imperial stout and caramel! The results didn't turn out exactly how I wanted, but they still had great flavor. Also this week, I answer your questions and continue on the thread from last week's positivity segment, talking about self-awareness and celebrating the little things in life. Thank you all so much for listening and for your amazing support that has taken me to 50 episodes. Here's to the next 50 and beyond! Thank you so much for coming on this journey with me. The 6th Annual Livestream for the Cure will take place from May 19th - May 21st, as we work with content creators and podcast partners around the world to raise $20,000 for the Cancer Research Institute. This is our sixth year, and over the past five we've raised over $50,000.

Featured Recipe for this Episode Brownies: 1 12-oz bottle of Imperial Stout 1/3 cup white sugar 2 sticks butter 10 oz chocolate (good quality chocolate/baking chocolate, get it as dark or semi-sweet as you like, minding the sugar) 2/3 cup dark brown sugar 2 t vanilla 5 large eggs 3/4 c flour 1 t salt Imperial Stout Caramel: 1 12-oz bottle of Imperial Stout 1 c white sugar 6 T unsalted butter 1/2 c heavy cream 1 t salt ~| Original caramel recipe is from https://sallysbakingaddiction.com/homemade-salted-caramel-recipe/ |~ Brownie Directions: Preheat oven to 350°. Add beer and white sugar to a large saucepan and cook, over medium heat, until the liquid is mostly gone- you'll notice a distinctive change in the liquid state from a simmer to a foaming or frothing as the liquid evaporates. Stir this and don't let it burn. Remove from heat and let it cool. Add two sticks of butter (1 cup) and the chocolate to a large glass or metal bowl. Fill a saucepan with 2 inches of water. Place bowl over top of the saucepan and turn it to high; the steam from the boiling water will melt the chocolate and butter. Stir frequently to combine. Remove from heat once melted and allow to cool (it should just be warm to the touch, then you're ready). Once this is cooled and your beer syrup is cooled, add it into your chocolate mix. Add brown sugar, salt, and vanilla and stir to combine. Add one egg at a time, stirring until it is incorporated. Note- if you want to whisk these in quite a bit you're going to add a lot of air that will make your brownies more on the cake-y side. If this is something you like, by all means, whisk each egg as it goes in. Sift 3/4 c flour into the bowl and stir together just until it is incorporated. Grease or spray a 9x13" or an 8x8" baking dish. Your brownies will obviously come out thicker in the 8x8" pan and not being as thin you won't get that kind of "crunchy" brownie edge like you do with a thinner 9x13" brownie. Spread batter out into the baking dish and bake for 25-30 minutes (9x13") or 30-40 minutes (8x8"). This depends largely on what consistency you want. To get them rich and fudge-y in the middle you want a fork/toothpick inserted into the center to come out with brownie on it, but it shouldn't be liquidy or drip off it. Remove and allow to cool. Caramel Directions: Add your beer and sugar to a large saucepan and cook over medium heat until the liquid is mostly gone (you can follow the same process as for the brownies- you can also make both at the same time in the same pot and then split it into the brownies and caramel). Once your beer syrup is reduced, immediately stir in the butter until melted and combined. After the butter has melted and combined with your beer syrup, cook for 1 minute without stirring (I covered it during this stage as well to wash down the sides of the pot, so as to avoid crystallization). Very slowly stir in the heavy cream- the mixture will rapidly bubble when added. After all the heavy cream has been added, stop stirring and allow to boil for 1 minute (I also covered it during this stage). Remove from the heat and add the salt, stirring to combine. Allow to cool before use. Important Links (All links open in a new window) Main Website Subscribe on Patreon! Livestream for the Cure Join my Discord Community!

Hello everyone and welcome back to another brand new episode of Nikoli's Kitchen! In this week's episode I talk about making changes- and how we sometimes convince ourselves that we've made a change just by talking about it, when we really need to put those words into actions. On the back half of the show, I talk about making spinach lasagna because it randomly popped up as a basket ingredient on Chopped! Thank you all so much for listening! The 6th Annual Livestream for the Cure will take place from May 19th - May 21st, as we work with content creators and podcast partners around the world to raise $20,000 for the Cancer Research Institute.

Featured Recipe for this Episode 4 c shredded mozzarella cheese 1 c freshly shredded parmesan cheese 32 oz ricotta cheese (whole milk) Zest of 3 lemons 2 c baby spinach 2 c fresh basil 2 eggs 1 t salt 1 t cracked black pepper 4 T clarified butter 4 T all-purpose flour 2 c whole milk 1 c sweet onions, finely diced 20 cloves of garlic, crushed 1 t Salt 1 t white pepper Allspice, nutmeg, and paprika to taste 12 homemade pasta sheets, 9" x 5" 1 c freshly-shredded parmesan cheese 1 c fresh mozzarella cheese, thinly sliced Prepare your filling by combining the ricotta cheese, lemon zest, and eggs in a large bowl. Whip them together with an electric mixer until smooth. Add your 4 c shredded mozzarella, 1 c parmesan, baby spinach, fresh basil, salt, and pepper into the bowl. Mix until well-combined and place in the fridge until it's time to build your lasagna. Melt your clarified butter in a large saucepan over medium heat. Add your diced onion and cook for 7-10 minutes or until mostly softened. Add some salt to help sweat them out. I let them cook until they had just a little bite left to them. Add your garlic and stir well. Cook for an additional minute to perfume. Add your flour and stir well; this will turn into your roux. Continue stirring until well-combined and cook for a minute or two to cook out the taste of the flour. Add your whole milk and seasonings/spices. Bring back to a simmer; this will thicken into a béchamel quite easily. Add additional seasonings to taste. Preheat your oven to 350°. Spread a layer of béchamel over the bottom of a 9x13" baking dish. Layer your fresh pasta over the béchamel. I did this straight from my pasta roller right into the pan; mine can only do sheets between 4" or 5" wide, so I did three strips each layer about 9" long, the same as the width of the pan. Layer 1/3 of your spinach ricotta mixture over the pasta. Add another layer of béchamel. Repeat this another 2x with layers of your fresh pasta and the ricotta mixture. Top with a final layer of pasta. Pour the remaining béchamel over the top of your final pasta layer. Top the lasagna with the freshly-shredded parmesan and the mozzarella. Add any additional seasonings atop this. Bake the lasagna covered for 40 minutes. Remove the cover and bake uncovered for another 10 minutes. Turn the broiler on high and just let the cheese brown on top. Remove and rest for 10-15 minutes before cutting into it. Cut and serve!

Hi everyone and welcome back to Nikoli's Kitchen! This week on the show I remember "the Bad Guy," Scott Hall, who passed away recently... and I reflected on his struggles some years back that I found at a critical point in my own life and my own struggle. In the back half of the show I talk about the General Tso's Chicken I made, which despite a couple missteps when I was preparing the dish live, turned out absolutely amazing. Make sure you hit the link for my Twitch channel down below so you don't miss when I make these dishes LIVE! The 6th Annual Livestream for the Cure will take place from May 19th - May 21st, as we work with content creators and podcast partners around the world to raise $20,000 for the Cancer Research Institute. This is our sixth year, and over the past five we've raised over $50,000. Please help us add to that total and help us spread the word by sharing promos for the event and information leading up to it. Learn more by visiting livestreamforthecure.com. Featured Recipe for this Episode (Updated 03/29/2022) Sauce: 1/2 c chicken stock 1/2 c vegetable stock 1/2 c reduced sodium soy sauce 1/2 c hoisin sauce 3 T fresh ginger, minced 4 T fresh garlic, minced 2 T hot red peppers, chopped 1/2 c rice vinegar 3 T dark brown sugar 2 T tomato paste 1-1/2 t sesame oil Slurry: 2 t cornstarch 1/4 c cold water Batter: 2/3 c AP flour 1-1/3 c rice flour 2/3 c corn starch 1-1/2 c water, more to desired consistency 4 lbs chicken thighs, cut into 1-inch pieces Oil for deep frying Deep frying thermometer Basmati rice, prepared as directed 2 T hot red peppers, chopped 4 T scallions, chopped Begin by adding your sauce ingredients except for the sesame oil to a large saucepan/pot and bringing them to a simmer over mid heat. Let the sauce simmer for 5-7 minutes, stirring regularly. Add half of your sesame oil, and more to taste- a little goes a long way. Use an immersion blender to blend it down into a sauce (you can also transfer it to a normal blender). Stir your cold water and cornstarch together in a small bowl to form a slurry, then add it to the saucepan. Stir the sauce together; it will thicken up with the addition of the slurry. Cook for an additional minute or two to cook out the cornstarch flavor. Remove from the heat and set aside. When you're ready to start cooking, place a large Dutch oven or stock pot on the stove and add your oil. Add your deep fry thermometer on the side of the pot if you have one. Turn on mid-high and begin heating the oil. Combine your flours and cornstarch together in a bowl and whisk until combined. Add your water in, stirring constantly until this has a nice, thick, batter-like consistency (it should be thicker than waffle batter but still runny; it shouldn't form a super thick layer on your chicken). Add your chicken to the bowl. Stir until well-combined and the chicken is well-coated (the batter should be thick it will not have an issue). Once your oil hits 350° or once a drop of batter dropped in pops back to the surface and floats after 1-2 seconds, it is ready. Add your chicken in batches (I did four), cooking it for about 2-3 minutes, being sure to break up any chicken that is clumped together (add it a piece at a time to save yourself the trouble of unsticking them later). Remove the chicken and rest. Heat your oil to 375°. Add the chicken back to your oil and cook for another 2-3 minutes or until it is a very crispy golden brown- I had to do this in two batches. Remove the oil from the heat and place your chicken on a paper towel-lined platter or a drying rack to rest. Return the saucepan with your sauce to the heat and heat to mid. Once it starts simmering around the edges, add your chicken and toss to coat all over in the sauce. Add the chopped scallions and red peppers and toss it with the chicken coated in sauce. Serve the chicken over basmati rice. Important Links (All links open in a new window) Main Website Subscribe on Patreon! Livestream for the Cure Join my Discord Community!

Tonight's episode, while a week late, is a Housekeeping episode! I feel like we haven't talked in forever! :)I have so much to update you on, future episodes, my personal musings, and of course a promo for LIVESTREAM FOR THE CURE! It is that time of year again where my friend, Nick, of Nikoli's kitchen, raises money for the Cancer Research Institute. You can find out more about that during tonight's promo break, and I will talk to you next week. Happy Reading! Intro Music: Sean FaustOutro Music: Victoria Timpanaro
Hello everyone and welcome back to another episode of Nikoli's Kitchen! In this week's episode, I share some life advice from a young woman who died at the age of 27 from cancer, and talk about my experience working with 18-month-old phyllo dough. Note: for the recipe breakdown below I included options to omit the phyllo dough and use a graham cracker crust instead. Thank you all so much for listening! The post I read in this episode was made by a young woman named Holly Butcher, who died in January 2018 at just 27 years old from a rare form of cancer. The version her letter is edited for this episode, but you can read it in its entirety here. The phyllo flatbread with tomato and ricotta mentioned in this episode is based on this recipe from The Spruce Eats. The 6th Annual Livestream for the Cure will take place from May 19th - May 21st, as we work with content creators and podcast partners around the world to raise $20,000 for the Cancer Research Institute. This is our sixth year, and over the past five we've raised over $50,000. Please help us add to that total and help us spread the word by sharing promos for the event and information leading up to it. Learn more by visiting livestreamforthecure.com. Featured Recipe for this Episode Graham Cracker Crumble- ~| Note that you can either use this as a topping for the key lime pies in the phyllo cups, or ditch the phyllo cups altogether and make a graham cracker crust with this instead. If you go the latter route, prepare it as directed and make sure you press the crust into your muffin tin and bake for the amount of time noted below before topping it with key lime filling. Then, just continue as normal. I'll also note I'd either make sure to use paper liners for your muffin tin or use silicone cupcake molds. |~ 2 c graham crackers, crushed 2 T brown sugar 1/2 t nutmeg 1/2 t allspice 1/4 t cinnamon 1/2 t vanilla Finishing salt 4 T butter, melted Preheat the oven to 350°. Place your graham crackers in a large ziploc bag and crush them with a rolling pin until they are mostly reduced to crumbs (go to your desired texture here- I like a couple chunks leftover in my crumble). Pour over your melted butter and add brown sugar, nutmeg, allspice, cinnamon, and vanilla. Stir to combine. Place a sheet of parchment paper over a baking tray. Spread your crumble in an even layer and bake at 350° for 8-10 minutes. Remove from the oven and add a LIGHT sprinkle of finishing salt (not the "Nick" amount of way too much- a pinch or two'll do ya). Set aside to cool. Mini Phyllo Cups- 5 sheets frozen phyllo dough, thawed 1/3 c melted butter Preheat the oven to 375°. Unfold your phyllo dough sheets. Transfer them to a baking tray large enough to fit them, and keep them covered with wax paper, then a wet towel, to keep them from drying out (the wax paper is to keep them from getting wet and sealing them, the wet towel is just for weight to not allow air in- do NOT put the wet towel on the phyllo dough). Place a sheet on a large cutting board or work surface. Brush the sheet with a thin layer of unsalted butter. Add another sheet on top and repeat this process until you've layered five sheets of phyllo dough. Cut the dough into twelve equally-sized squares. Using a brush or your finger, take a muffin pan and coat the inside of the muffin cups with a little butter. Press the phyllo dough squares into your muffin cups in the center to make sure you've got enough dough going up the sides. I trimmed the edges that popped up out of the cups because I didn't want them to burn. Using a toothpick, poke a hole in the center to allow steam to escape. Bake at 375° for 8-10 minutes and remove, and set aside. Key Lime Pie Filling- 1/2 c key lime juice Zest of 8 key limes & 2 limes 14 oz can sweetened condensed milk 1/4 c heavy cream 4 egg yolks 2 T softened 1/3 fat cream cheese Bump your oven down to 350°. Whisk together egg yolks, sweetened condensed milk, cream cheese, and heavy cream until smooth. Add key lime juice and half of the zest and stir to combine. Pour into phyllo cups and bake at 350° for 12-15 minutes, or until custard is set. Remove from the oven and top with your graham cracker crumble (if desired), the remaining zest, and your meringue. Meringue- 4 egg whites 4 T sugar 1 t cream of tartar Dash of salt Beat egg whites on mid-high until soft peaks form. Add combo of sugar, tartar, and salt (I deliberately used less sugar in the meringue knowing the filling would also be sweet; adjust this to your tastes). Spoon onto hot phyllo cups, covering every gap to the edge of the dough. Bake 10-12 minutes or until meringue is browned. Yield: 12 mini phyllo key lime pies. Calories/Serving: 340 calories per pie with graham crackers and phyllo. 240 calories per pie if you omit the graham cracker crumble. 275 calories per pie if you replace the phyllo with a graham cracker crust as prepared here.

In this episode of the Epigenetics Podcast, we caught up with Eleni Tomazou from St. Anna Children's Cancer Research Institute in Vienna to talk about her work on Epigenome-based precision medicine. The Tomazou lab studies Ewing sarcoma and the effects of Epigenetic factors on this disease. Ewing sarcoma is a type of cancer that affects bone and soft tissue of children and young adults, with a peak incidence at the age of 15. Ewing sarcoma is among the pediatric cancer types with the lowest survival rates and the development of novel therapies was obstructed by the limited understanding of the mechanisms behind the disease. Work done in Eleni Tomazou's group identified an epigenetic signature of Ewing sarcoma which, ultimately, lead to the possibility to diagnose Ewing sarcoma from liquid biopsies. The team is now looking to find actionable targets like enhancers to develop therapies, finding biomarkers to enable disease monitoring, and to further characterize these tumors to decipher intra-tumor epigenetic heterogeneity and characterize the developmental stage of the cell of origin.

I met Nick through the wonderful Emily Prokop of E Podcast Productions and the network of podcast connections. Emily is one of Nick's most important connections he has made through his podcasting journey. We have an 'Emily Awe and Appreciation' moment. Emily has hosted several podcasts, and edits and helps podcasters, but has also been a huge helper and supporter of the annual Livestream For The Cure event that Nick founded and hosts to raise funds for the Cancer Research Institute that supports immunotherapy research and clinical trials. Livestream For The Cure is a huge livestream event of up to 50 hours of content to watch and interact with co-hosted by podcast partners and content creators who get together to provide entertainment and encourage donations. "Together we can make a difference".April 5th 2017 Nick announced the first annual Livestream For the Cure (LFTC). The event raised over $1200.May 2020 event raised over $16,000.The goal for 2021 is $15,000.Lindsey & Perry Johnson are the highlight of past LFTC events. Both were excited to be a part of the event and then Perry was diagnosed shortly before the 2nd event with stage 4 cancer. Donations were raised to help them on their journey and sadly Perry passed away a few months before the 3rd event in 2019. However, Lindsey came back to participate in the 3rd event. Cancer affects everyone and that's why LFTC is so important to Nick and I and everyone who participates. When Nick found the Sunshine & PowerCuts podcast he was drawn to the Sunshine episodes. They helped him check in with himself and rediscover his light during particularly dark times. Nick says that it saved his life, and it is beyond incredible to know the impact it had for him and I am so grateful it helped because Nick gives so much to the world and he has so much more to give!Nick hosts a podcast called Nikoli's Kitchen in which he shares his journey in his kitchen and with positivity and Nick mentioned that it has roots in the Sunshine episodes of Sunshine & PowerCuts. We briefly touch on his previous show the RestauRant Podcast which was born from something negative, as opposed to Nikoli's Kitchen which is founded in positivity. Nikoli's Kitchen radiates honesty and is a project that Nick wants to remain genuine. He talks about the truth that sometimes things don't work out. And other times you smash them out of the ballpark beyond expectations. "You win some, you lose some." Nick highlights that it is a conscious choice to be positive. We aren't always going to have good times. The key is to acknowledge your limitations and accept that it's ok to step back, ask for help and to take a break. I share briefly about my journey of self-acceptance and that I still need the reminders and lessons of the examples drawn from nature to help get me through. Walking has helped Nick to reconnect with his breathing, and give him fresh perspective. Playing video games helps him relieve stress. And having a supportive partner has been a huge light in Nick's life. He opens up about it not being easy to adjust to so much loving support and he is incredibly grateful for his partner Rebecca. And as someone who cares very much for Nick, I am incredibly happy for them both.For more information and all the links for Livestream For The Cure: http://livestreamforthecure.com/Join us live at: twitch.tv/livestreamforthecureTo donate: https://fundraise.cancerresearch.org/fundraiser/3094239To buy a commemorative mugInformation about the event on FacebookOr follow the Facebook Page For links to all Nick's things: https://nikoliskitchen.com/Listen to Nikoli's KitchenYou can support Nick on Patreon If you have a connection with Nick we'd love to hear from you!Or if you've made a connection to him or something he mentioned after listening, please share them with us.And if you know of anyone who may benefit from listening to and learning from Nick please share this episode with them too.

With the world in the middle of a global pandemic, it's time to try to answer the question, as fans, do we _need_ to meet face to face? While it goes without saying that we don't _have_ to meet face to face… how does that change the wide world of fandom? In particular, we talk about: * The limitations of online communication, including the role that conventions and other events play in creating semi-private spaces? * How different forms of communication use different bandwidth, or more specifically how fan events have different levels of expectation of interaction * How the veil of anonymity changes fandom, in the online world _but_ how it also makes things more accessible And more! All in under thirty minutes. ## Episode Outline **Topics:** In-person communication not required; zines, newsgroups, and mailing lists (oh my); the multitude of tools available for online communication; how we identify other fans and how that changes in the online world; how meeting in person makes fandom experiences more real; how online / offline events and the distinction between public and private spaces; online spaces and accessibility; anonymity and the internet; in-person events and vulnerability. ## Where can I get updates?

This year we'll be pushing to raise $10,000 for the Cancer Research Institute, and if all of that gets doubled, we stand a very good chance of raising over $20,000 for cancer research. Hitting last year's goal on day TWO meant that, unfortunately, donations slowed to a trickle for the entirety of day three, so if we happen to hit our goal before the end this year, we'll be raising the bar by $1,000 every time we hit it and offering additional prizes for people won donate to these flex goals!

Should we get emotionally attached to fictional characters? Of course we do, intentionally or not… but _should_ we? No guarantees that we get anywhere near addressing that, but we definitely dig into how and why people get attached to characters (for good reasons… and for reasons)! In particular, we talk about: * The (non-)distinction between fictional and real characters… and real people? * How writing has gotten better, and how people can relate to even villains * How people can exert agency over fictional character in fanworks and how that promotes attachment And more! All in under thirty minutes. ## Episode Outline **Topics:** We do get attached, fictional vs real characters, beyond the emotional journey of a story, uncritical character love, villains and relatability, queer coding villains, characters as proxies, rewriting characters' destinies, beyond physical attraction, reinforcement learning in a nutshell, the randomness of initial selections, a bad sports fan fandom analogy, cosplay and fictional characters. ## Where can I get updates?

Spoiler alert: You've been warned! We could spoil literally anything! That actor you like? They're in this! That plot twist? Revealed! Deep lore?! … Probably? In all seriousness, we're talking about what exactly _are_ spoilers, and how they impact people's experience with the media that they consume (and, in general, how people perceive media). In particular, we talk about: * The (non-)importance of _the twist_ in modern storytelling * You can only experience something once… or can you? * How can we “inoculate” ourselves against spoilers in this world of modern media consumption (i.e. binging, near-instant relay of information)? And more! All in under thirty minutes. ## Episode Outline **Topics:** Just… give people a spoiler alert when talking about any media; we definitely spoil some key points in Star Wars, Harry Potter, and other franchises; Everything is new to someone; how long should you wait to accidentally spoil something? The levels of spoilers, preserving new experiences, the thrill of _new_, plot versus meta, inoculation against spoilers, using spoilers to catch up, consuming media for feelings versus plot, the reliance on _the twist_, false action, rewatches, spoilers versus story quality, you only get one first impression, spoilers as liberation. ## Where can I get updates?

The signs are all there, people! Have you heard the good word (of Firefly)? May the force be with you (and also with you)! Though there're lots of superficial connections between fandom and religion, could there be a stronger link? Some sort of… divine connection?

Oh, and here at [fanthropological.com](https://fanthropological.com) ## Special Announcement: Livestream for the Cure 4 The 4th Annual Livestream for the Cure (or the Livestream 4 the Cure?) has been scheduled for FORTY-EIGHT HOURS from May 28th thru the 31st, with a small four hour kick-off event scheduled for the evening before to do final tests (and hopefully wrangle in some amazing guests). This year we'll be pushing to raise $10,000 for the Cancer Research Institute, and if all of that gets doubled, we stand a very good chance of raising over $20,000 for cancer research. Hitting last year's goal on day TWO meant that, unfortunately, donations slowed to a trickle for the entirety of day three, so if we happen to hit our goal before the end this year, we'll be raising the bar by $1,000 every time we hit it and offering additional prizes for people won donate to these flex goals! As in years past, the event will be LIVE on Twitch, so be sure to head to [http://twitch.tv/epicfilmguys](http://twitch.tv/epicfilmguys) and give us a follow! We'll be going live with streams and other events where we'll be mentioning L4TC all the way up until the event begins the evening of May 27th. More details available at [http://www.livestreamforthecure.com/](http://www.livestreamforthecure.com/) ## What is Fanthropological? Every week, our podcast, Fanthropological, delivers about an hour of fandom-related "fanalysis" covering a different fandom every week and giving you hard data, history, special guests, and, of course, speculation! We cover topics spanning the gamut of anime, manga, comics, video games, comics, movies, books, television, and, in general, geek culture. ## Who are you? We are the Nickscast! Three products of late-80s / early-90s pop culture who love exploring fandom and everything geek … who also happen to have been best buddies since high school, and all happen to be named Nick. We started the Nickscast as a labour of love, and as a place to entertain and to discuss our love of fans and fandom. We want to help others learn more about different fandoms, and to create empathy with other fans.

Fandom has changed a lot, and over time has gone from something on the fringe of society to the forefront. Does that also mean that fandom has moved towards a key part, an integral piece of people's personal identity? In this episode, we dig a bit about representation and self-identification as well as: * What does being a fan of something even mean?! * The (non) importance of level of participation in (self) identification * Conversations that are strangely lacking self-awareness about the parallels of fan self-identification as compared to other areas of self-identification, closeting… etc. And more! All in under thirty minutes. ## Episode Outline **Topics:** How do people identify themselves, the meaninglessness of the word fan, the difference between interests and fandoms… sort of, the difference between liking something and having it be a part of your identity, interests between people don't inherently mean connections, how community contribution or participation impact perceptions of identity, the importance of self-identification and self-labelling, the desire to put things (and people) in boxes, labels as shorthand for characteristics, stereotypes, feeling closeted in your hobbies, aspirational vs actual identities ## Where can I get updates?

We cover topics spanning the gamut of anime, manga, comics, video games, comics, movies, books, television, and, in general, geek culture. ## What is Livestream for the Cure? Since 2017, Nick and Justin of the [Epic Film Guys](http://www.epicfilmguys.com/) have dedicated a block of time each year to livestream their podcast and other content in order to raise funds for the Cancer Research Institute. This organization researches immunotherapy with the goal of curing all forms of cancer. They are among some of the most reputable charities out there with a rating of 92% on [CharityNavigator.org](https://www.charitynavigator.org/index.cfm?bay=search.summary&orgid=3417). Last year's Livestream for the Cure 2.0 (**check it out [here](https://fundraise.cancerresearch.org/fundraiser/1583313)**) was a resounding success. In 30 hours live on the air, the Epic Film Guys raised over $5,000 for cancer research and an additional $780 for Perry Johnson, a fellow podcaster who guested on the event and was diagnosed with stage IV esophageal cancer shortly before it began. Because they smashed their goal and because of their amazing community of peers and fellow podcasters, they decided this year's event should be even bigger and better. The 3rd Annual Livestream for the Cure will be held from May 17th through the 19th, and the Epic Film Guys will be live for FORTY hours as they try to hit their biggest goal yet and raise $7,500. The event will be held live at[ https://twitch.tv/epicfilmguys](https://twitch.tv/epicfilmguys) and will include dozens of fellow content creators and podcasters who are joining them to reach this common goal. They will be live for 40 hours from the following times (all are EST): **May 17th: 10:00 AM to 2:00 AM** **May 18th: 10:00 AM to 2:00 AM** **May 19th: 8:00 AM to 4:00 PM** Follow the event on[ Facebook](https://www.facebook.com/events/1303610656446934/) or follow[ @livestream4cure](https://www.twitter.com/livestream4cure) on Twitter for updates and guest information.
