License to Change – The Future of Spy Movies explores the spy genre and why it now faces its greatest challenge yet. In this in-depth episode from Cracking the Code of Spy Movies, Dan and Tom examine whether traditional espionage storytelling can survive in a world defined by surveillance, data, and artificial intelligence. For more than sixty years, spy movies have taught audiences what espionage is supposed to look like: tailored tuxedos, exotic locations, ingenious gadgets, and clear-cut heroes and villains. From Dr. No through decades of James Bond dominance, spy films reassured audiences that control was possible in an unstable world. But as License to Change – The Future of Spy Movies makes clear, that fantasy no longer reflects reality. This episode traces the genre back to its Cold War roots, when fear, secrecy, and global tension shaped early spy cinema. It contrasts the glamorous escapism of Bond with darker, more realistic counterpoints like The Spy Who Came in from the Cold, The Ipcress File, and Tinker Tailor Soldier Spy. The discussion then moves to the seismic shift caused by The Bourne Identity, which introduced vulnerability, moral ambiguity, and institutional distrust into mainstream spy films. From there, the focus turns to modern espionage itself. Today's intelligence battles are fought with algorithms, metadata, drones, and predictive systems rather than pistols and car chases. The episode asks hard questions about how spy movies can dramatize invisible threats, system-based villains, and a world where privacy may no longer exist. It also explores how artificial intelligence, automated decision-making, and situational ethics are reshaping both real intelligence work and its cinematic portrayal. Finally, Dan and Tom look ahead. Who gets to be a spy in the future? What happens when access matters more than authority? And can James Bond remain relevant in an era where secrecy is nearly impossible? They argue that the genre's future will be darker, smarter, and more emotionally complex—less about winning clean victories and more about living with the consequences. This episode is essential listening for fans of James Bond, spy thrillers, modern cinema, and anyone curious about where espionage storytelling is headed next.

Climate Solutions for the Ocean are urgently needed as warming seas, biodiversity loss, and ecosystem collapse accelerate faster than most people realize, and one of the most powerful tools may be hiding just beneath the waves. In this episode, Andrew Lewin sits down with Scott Bohachyk, Director of Seaforestation at Ocean Wise, to explore how kelp forests function as underwater life support systems for the ocean, supporting fisheries, stabilizing coastlines, and helping ecosystems recover from climate stress. Kelp forests have declined by up to 50 percent globally, with some regions losing more than 90 percent of their kelp after marine heatwaves and ecosystem imbalances. Scott explains how Ocean Wise is actively restoring kelp forests in British Columbia through hands-on seaforestation, partnerships with First Nations, innovative nursery techniques, and standardized monitoring that tracks biodiversity recovery and ecosystem health over time. One of the most surprising insights from this conversation is that kelp restoration is not primarily about carbon credits or climate hype. Instead, the real win comes from rebuilding biodiversity and ecosystem resilience, with climate benefits becoming a powerful bonus rather than the sole goal. This shift in perspective reframes how we think about climate solutions and what truly works in the ocean.

In two weeks, millions of Americans will be voting — but a Supreme Court case could change elections as we know them. Last week, the court heard arguments in Louisiana vs. Callais, a case that centers on Section 2 of the Voting Rights Act. Basically, the court is deciding whether or not states can use race to draw voting maps — and depending on what it decides, it could give Republicans the ability to eliminate at least six majority-minority districts and land about a dozen more seats in the House of Representatives. So we spoke to Stacey Abrams about the court's deliberations. She's the Host of Crooked Media's Assembly Required and a New York Times Bestselling Author. And in headlines, Trump signs a critical minerals deal with the Prime Minister of Australia, universities publicly reject the Trump administration's “Compact for Academic Excellence in Higher Education”, and House Speaker Mike Johnson, aka “Mad Mike,” yearns to be happy again as the shutdown heads into week three.Show Notes:Check out Coded Justice – https://tinyurl.com/3yx73h78Watch Assembly Required – https://tinyurl.com/4nv3uzatCall Congress – 202-224-3121Subscribe to the What A Day Newsletter – https://tinyurl.com/3kk4nyz8What A Day – YouTube – https://www.youtube.com/@whatadaypodcastFollow us on Instagram – https://www.instagram.com/crookedmedia/For a transcript of this episode, please visit crooked.com/whataday Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.

Living in a period increasingly fraught by various crises and risks, it is more necessary than ever to be able to metabolize anxiety into something useful. But what about at a cultural level? The behaviors that the current economic superstructure rewards cannot form the basis of what emerges from its ashes…we require new ways of thinking and living that put us in closer relationship to one another and the planet around us. In a system structured to serve as a dissipative structure, how do we plant the seeds of something that is more resilient and cooperative? In this week's Frankly, Nate addresses how we, as humans, might adapt and take on characteristics that will allow us to face the coming challenges of our world head-on. Through a framework of “cultural mitochondria,” Nate explores 10 traits that will help to shape the way we move through and address the human predicament. These are not far off ideals to think about once, then forget about. These are behaviors that require deep and regular practice, perhaps one of the most important tasks of our time. How can we become more grounded and regulated in our bodies in order to become agents of change? What does it mean to metabolize grief into resilience and action? And how do we expand empathy and humility for one another as we grapple with increasingly isolating conditions?

Prayer is so important because it allows us to delight in God's presence, discern His heart, and depend on His power. But prayer is so powerful because it actually directs God's hand. When we pray, prayer moves our heart and will to align with God's heart and will. But it also moves God's hand to directly interfere into the affairs of humanity. And yet few of us actually believe this. Some of us fall into the trap of fatalism, falsely believing God has already set the future and our prayers won't actually change anything. Others of us fall into the trap of naturalism, falsely believing that prayer is less important than action. But throughout the scriptures, God does change his mind in response to his peoples' prayers. In Exodus 32, after receiving the 10 Commandments, Moses prays on behalf of the Israelites and God relents. In 2 Kings 6, Elisha prays for the eyes of his servant to be opened to the reality of God's power through prayer. If you track the theme of prayer throughout the biblical story, one thing becomes abundantly clear: prayer moves the hand of God to action. It's our prayers, usually on behalf of others, by which God advances His Kingdom to push back the darkness in the world around us. Put simply, God responds when we pray. By praying bold prayers that just might move God's hand to action, we practice turning our inward-focused minds, hearts, and bodies into outward-acting agents of God's kingdom.

Right now, in parts of the world, people with albinism are targeted for their body parts—fueled by superstition and a lucrative black market trade. In some places, election years bring a surge in these brutal attacks, as people believe their body parts bring power and wealth.But this is not just a story of fear and violence—it's also a story of resistance and change.In this episode of The GoodViral Podcast, we sit down with Peter Ash, founder of Under the Same Sun, an organization that has played a key role in massively reducing these horrific hunts.

Artificial intelligence tools for musicians are getting eerily good, very fast. Their work can be maddening, funny, ethically dubious, and downright fascinating all at the same time. TV and podcast composer Mark Henry Phillips joins to describe his experience working with them. We talk about the job of modern music composition; why he's worried AI might eventually do much of his current job; the morass of AI copyright law; and the ethics of creative ownership. But above all, Mark gets my brain whirring about the nature of creativity—how great new ideas, like songs, come to be in the first place. The line between stealing and inspiration in artistic history has always been blurry. Picasso famously said: “Good artists copy, great artists steal.” And that is not just a memorable quote. Many of my favorite musicians were famous borrowers, to put it lightly. Some of Led Zeppelin's most famous songs—such as "Whole Lotta Love"—were such obvious lifts that, after years of court cases, the band agreed to add the plaintiff to the song credits. But analogies to music and art history also fall short to capture the weirdness of this moment. Neither Picasso nor Jimmy Page had access to an external technology whose deliberate function was to slurp up musical elements from millions of songs, store their essence in silicon memory, and serve them up in a kind of synthetic stir fry on an order-by-order basis. Musicians have been writing music with partners for decades, even centuries. What happens to music when that partner is a machine: Will it open up new horizons in songwriting and composition? Or in a sad way, will super-intelligence make the future of music more average than ever?

While cleaning up your closet can clear your mind, cleaning up your cellular habitat can change your life. This week, I'm joined by Dr. David Haase, who specializes in integrative holistic medicine and is the founder of the Maxwell Clinic in Tennessee. We sat down to discuss neurofeedback, diagnosing head injuries, and how plasma exchange (aka "an oil change" for cells) can help optimize your brain health and enhance your well-being in the long run. In this episode, you'll discover: The Science of Brain Injuries: "When the brain gets injured, the blood vessels get damaged… You no longer have the amount of vascular supply to the neurons," says Dr. Haase, adding that around 80% of people suffer from a "meaningful head injury." Fortunately, an isolated injury doesn't necessarily mean your entire brain is hurt. "One area of the brain getting injured may not come out as a deficit, but you have decreased your brain ability to be maximally resilient and maximally efficient." This is where neurofeedback comes in. What Is Neurofeedback: "Neurofeedback is a way of retraining the brain to be more electrically efficient," says Dr. Haase. This brain training, which involves measuring the electricity coming off your scalp, shows how your brain reacts to certain stimuli. This feedback can help train the brain to adjust its learning pattern naturally, thus improving focus, mood, migraines, and seizures. "If the brain gets more efficient, everything else can start to improve," he adds.

Gary Marcus is worried about AI. The professor emeritus at NYU doesn’t count himself a luddite or techno-pessimist. But Marcus has become one of the loudest voices of caution when it comes to AI. He's chronicled some of the funniest and most disturbing errors made by current tools like ChatGPT, calling out the many costs – both human and environmental – of an industry that continues to accrete money and power. In his new book “Taming Silicon Valley: How We Can Ensure That AI Works for Us,” Marcus lays out his vision for a responsible path forward. Marketplace's Meghan McCarty Carino spoke to Marcus about that path and how it may be further out of reach, though not impossible, given the results of this year's presidential election.

The nature of war is changing. $10 million tanks in Ukraine are being disabled by $10,000 drones — and many cutting-edge battlefield technologies today come from private companies rather than governments. Few people know more about harnessing commercial tech for the military than Raj Shah, who led the Pentagon's Defense Innovation Unit before founding his own venture capital firm. Now he's on the board of the NATO Innovation Fund. On the show today, he speaks with POLITICO deputy tech editor Daniella Cheslow to talk about how to translate leading technology to the battlefield.

Why do the most successful startups disregard best practices?
Pattern Breakers: Why Some Start-Ups Change the Future by Mike Maples Jr, Peter Ziebelman https://amzn.to/4bQrwrx Based on extensive research and real-world examples, this book upends accepted wisdom about how to achieve success when launching a startup or creating a new product. The breakthrough concepts of Pattern Breakers come from the observations of Mike Maples Jr., a seasoned venture capitalist, who noticed something strange. Start-ups like Twitter, Twitch, and Lyft had achieved extraordinary success despite their disregard for “best practices.” In contrast, other startups deemed highly promising often failed, even when they seemed to do everything right. Seeking answers, Maples and coauthor Peter Ziebelman set out to discover the hidden forces that drive extraordinary start-up success. Pattern-breaking success, they reveal, demands a different mindset and actions to harness developments others miss or that may, at first, seem crazy. Pattern Breakers is filled with firsthand storytelling about initial interactions with some of the most transformative start-ups of recent times. Maples and Ziebelman challenge us to rethink how to transcend the ordinary and achieve the extraordinary. About the author Mike Maples, Jr. is an entrepreneur, venture capitalist, and author. He is focused on backing the founders of startup companies at the very beginning of their startup journeys. As a co-founding partner at Floodgate, he's been on the Forbes Midas List eight times for his investments in companies such as Twitter, Twitch, Okta, Outreach, Rappi, Chegg, and Applied Intuition. Maples co-authored Pattern Breakers, which entrepreneurship thought leader Steve Blank calls “the most important book on startups in the last ten years.” He additionally hosts a podcast and newsletter, which explore the pivotal role of pattern-breaking founders in reshaping business and culture in the 21st Century.
Silicon Valley investor Mike Maples Jr. is known for having a ‘Midas Touch.' Think of a tech start-up that has changed your life in the last 20 years, and he was probably helping fuel its growth. Mike talks with host Reid Hoffman about the insights he's gathered from decades of investing, which he shares in his new book: Pattern Breakers. They also riff on how to build – and invest – in the AI revolution.

You have the power to change your future, but do you believe it? In this sermon, Pastor Allen Jackson reminds us of who God is and what He is capable of doing. When we choose to align ourselves with God and follow His direction for our lives, we gain access to His power, wisdom, understanding, and grace—and that changes everything. Pastor Allen discusses the life of Ahab, a king who was so ungodly that 1 Kings 25 tells us, “There was none who sold himself to do what was evil in the sight of the LORD like Ahab.” Ahab repented of his sinful ways after receiving a prophetic message from Elijah. God turned Ahab's heart back to Him, and He can do the same in any heart today. Pastor Allen offers a powerful Psalm we can pray over our lives to invite the Holy Spirit to help us repent and forgive so we can draw closer to God and seek Him more fully.
