Ryan, Brant, and Chris Davis have a hootebanany with our final Hotel X episode! . . . YOU DON'T KNOW MOJACK is a podcast dedicated to exploring the entire SST catalogue, in order, from start to finish. During the podcast we will discuss all the releases that are part of our core DNA, as well as many lesser-known releases that deserve a second chance, or releases that we are discovering for the very first time (we actually don't know Mojack!). First and foremost we are fans, and acknowledge that we are not perfect and don't know everything – sometimes the discussion is more about a time, place, feeling, personal experience or random tangents, and less about the facts (but we will try to get to the facts too).

Take 10 with 10 – September 11, 2026 @ 9:15 am – 1 hour, max1.Shohei Ohtani hits the IL with his knee and bicep that have been problematic since June. He'll be out of the lineup until at least the end of the month. a.The Dodgers have one 7 in a row and nine up in the loss column over the Padres. Do we see Ohtani in the regular season again?b.With what we know now, do you drop him in leagues that do not have Injury rosters?c.Uber prospect Josue De Paula gets the call and is a must-add in all leagues. At least I think so; does he get enough at-bats to matter?2.Let's look at the standings.3.Here are 10 players who've had a great second half. How will you think of them coming into next season's drafts? Maybe a round or round range, or move up on your list, etc…1)Fernando Tatis - .299 BA, 15 HR, 9 SB, 37 RBI2)Rafael Devers - .276 BA, 16 HR, 40 RBI3)Steven Kwan - .353 BA, 1 hit, 3 SB – at least he started hitting, not much else though.4)Jac Caglianone - .328 BA, 8 HR, 3 SB, but only 5 walks in 161 Pas5)Henry Bolte - .293 BA, 7 HR, 8 SB6)Cal Raleigh - .204 BA, 12 HR, 30 SB7)Payton Tolle – 53.0 IP, 3.23 ERA, 72K/12BB8)Reid Detmers – 53.1 IP, 1.37 ERA, 68K/10BB9)Brandon Pfaadt – 63.2 IP, 2.54 ERA, 36K/11BB – only 5 K/910)Logan Henderson – 55.1 IP, 1.95 ERA, 59K/7BB4.Kade Anderson picked up his first win. What have you thought about his MLB debut so far – 21 IP, 4.29 ERA, 16K/8BB, 4.01 xERAa.Is he a guy to target for 2027?5.One thing that happened over our week off was the Orioles signed Luis Robert Jr. after the Mets cut him. It cost them $4 million for the month. They consequently lost five games in a row, and then LRJ was put on the IL.a.Is he done in fantasy managers' eyes, or will somebody take a flyer on him in 2027?b.Fun fact – Do you know that the Orioles paid Chris Davis $3.5 million in deferred compensation in 2026?i.He'll be paid $3.5 million until 2032 and $1.7 million until 2037. He last played in 2020.c.Fun fact 2 – They also paid Bobby Bonilla $500,000. He has a 25-year deferred compensation agreement that ran from 2004 until 2028. Not as bad as the Mets deal. To remind everyone on the Mets deal:i.The Mets agreed to defer 5.9 million of Bonilla's contract for 10 years with an 8% interest rate. The $5.9 million turned into $29.8 million, and the famous amount of $1,193,249.20 is paid out from 2011 to 2035. The Wilpon's and the Mets made the high-interest deal because they talked to their financial advisor, legendary criminal Bernie Madoff, who said he could easily earn double that interest amount, so the Mets made the deal. It clearly did not work out for the Wilpon's and the Mets. You can't make this stuff up.d.Fun fact 3 – There was a lot written about Bernie Madoff and several movies. While everyone knows about the crime and the ensuing drama, the final recovery was announced just last month, and victims got 94% of their actual cash losses. Not trying to downplay the event, but the good news is that most people got back a least the money they invested – nobody will do a movie about that.6.What one hitter are you targeting for this weekend's FAAB?7.What one pitcher are you targeting for this weekend's FAAB?
Connecticut's largest business organization released its annual legislative scorecard, tracking lawmakers' votes on key bills from this year's session.

In Friday's 360 Round, the panel looks at Airbnb (ABNB) after the stock hit a new 52-week high following strong earnings. Wedbush's Ygal Arounian is bullish on continued consumer spending and upgraded ABNB to Outperform with a $200 price target. Chris Davis of Hudson Value Partners says Airbnb is better positioned than other travel stocks as consumers favor shorter domestic trips, while expanded hotel partnerships and bookings could broaden its reach. He also points to the company's “reserve now, pay later” program as a potential driver of future revenue.

Episode 377 features Jenn's Apartment, an indie punk band from Lansing, Michigan. They have brand new music out right now. The band features Roy Kirby on guitar and vocals, Chris Davis on bass and vocals, and Justin Pine on drums and vocals originally formed in 2004, went on hiatus, and came back in 2014. They've kept the same lineup going strong ever since. I featured their latest track “Summer” on this episode, as well as “Taylor Swift's Dick.” Their sound mixes 90s alternative, early 2000s punk and emo, and straight-up rock songwriting with ringing guitars, big harmonies, and a tight rhythm section. Think The Replacements, Gaslight Anthem, Gin Blossoms, and Goo Goo Dolls with a solid Midwest DIY attitude. They're known for high-energy live shows, funny stage banter, and just having a good time whether there are 5 people in the room or 500. Everything is DIY. They record in Justin's basement, book their own shows, run their own label MiScene Records, and do it all on their own terms. Check them out at jennsapartment.net and stream their music wherever you listen. Thanks for listening and supporting local and independent artists. Please follow, rate, or review the podcast wherever you are streaming if you'd like to help us out. Part-Time Rockstar Productions is available in the DMV for music videos and live filming.

Chris Davis, chairman and portfolio manager at Davis Advisors discusses how every technological revolution — dating back to the days of the printing press but extending to the artificial-intelligence boom bow — goes through the cycle of "Amara's Law," in which the effects of a technology are overestimated in the short run but underestimated over the long term. As a result, Davis says investors are putting too much into the hype phase around AI, without looking at the long-term picture. Davis, in The Big Interview, echoes his recent paper on "Investing in the A.I. Age," which suggests that companies will fall into five categories: "emerging winners, enablers, users, insulated businesses and the walking dead," and talks about how investors can navigate the changing market and avoid the pitfalls of the latest technological evolution. Davis is not the only value manager discussing the current market on today's show. In the Market Call, John Dorfman — a long-time classic value manager and the chairman of Dorfman Value Investments — gives his take on how current conditions have created some changes to the investment processes that have defined his career, noting that they are subtle but substantive in delivering better returns than many investors expect the value style to deliver in a growth-dominated market. In today's "Talking Technicals" segment, Matt Fox, president of Ithaca Wealth Management, says that the stock market is poised for more gains and new highs, and that investors should "hold on and ride the trend higher for sure." Fox discusses technical measures based around long-term trends, and he sees the Standard & Poor's 500 suprassing 10,000 and the Nasdaq 100 45,000 in "around two years." While he does see garden-variety corrections occuring in that time frame, Fox set S&P 7,000 as a key support level, noting it is possible there's a setback that low, even as the overall trend is upward.

Written by Will LochamyPlayed by Reed Lochamy, Chris Davis, and Matt DavisFor most rounds, there are three questions, and you rank your answers, assigning point values of 5, 3, and 1 each round, depending on your level of confidence. The one you feel best about is your 5-point answer, the one you're just guessing on is your 1-point answer. (For any rounds where the points don't work this way, we'll discuss that during the game.)If you feel certain that you know the answer to all three questions in a typical round, then instead of assigning points of 5, 3 and 1, you can go for 11 points. If you do that and you answer all three questions correctly, you get 11 points (instead of 9). However, if you do that and you miss just one question, you get a 0 for the round.The bonus round question has five possible answers. You get 3 points for every correct answer you submit. Like with going for 11 in typical rounds, though, you can choose to go for 20 in the bonus round (but doing so is risky in the same way that going for 11 in typical rounds is).Have questions about the game or how it works?

Connecticut lawmakers continue to grapple with affordability challenges facing small businesses—and energy costs are a major focus this legislative session. In this episode of the CBIA BizCast, host Amanda Marlow highlights proposed legislation aimed at reducing energy costs, along with key business and policy developments from across the state.

This week, a special road trip episode featuring award-winning Owensboro, Kentucky bluegrass singer/songwriter Rick Faris and his band recorded live at the 2024 Walnut Valley Festival in Winfield, Kansas. The annual Walnut Valley Festival, now in it's 53rd season, is one of the oldest and most respected acoustic music festivals in the world. Held at the Winfield, Kansas fairgrounds, more than 30 musical acts will perform on four separate stages, presenting over 200 hours of live music. Also, there is a dedicated contest stage where contestants vie for national and international championships in Finger Style Guitar, Flat Pick Guitar, Bluegrass Banjo, Old Time Fiddle, Mandolin, Mountain Dulcimer, Hammered Dulcimer, and Autoharp. There is a juried arts and crafts fair, exhibits by renowned instrument makers and music shops, family activities, a bevy of food vendors, a farmer's market and even a pub! An unusual aspect of Walnut Valley is its campground tradition. Campsites are not reserved and campers line up to claim a choice campsite during the "Land Rush.” Walnut Valley Festival goers often bring their own musical instruments to participate in the sometimes all night campground jam sessions. Bands like Old Sound and Sally & The Hurts that began as "Jam Bands" in the campgrounds, have even been invited to perform at the festival. Rick Faris is a Kansas Music Hall of Fame Member who was recently awarded the “Songwriter of the Year” at the 2024 International Bluegrass Music Association Awards making him an 8-time IBMA Award winner. In addition Rick won the coveted “New Artist of the Year” in 2022. Faris also spent 11 years with Special Consensus while the band earned two GRAMMY nominations before embarking on his chart topping solo career. The Rick Faris Band, is an International touring Bluegrass outfit playing in the US, Mainland Europe, the British Isles and Canada. They bring sibling harmony and comedic relief with brother JimBob Faris on bass and a youthful snap to their original brand of music with a couple of bluegrass thoroughbreds, Henry Burgess (who grew up with fiddle legend Byron Berline) and Gibson Davis (who is a third generation bluegrass musician following father Chris Davis and his Grandfather Danny Davis). Rick recently moved to Owensboro, Kentucky the Bluegrass Music Capital and has opened his Faris Guitar Co. - https://rickfaris.com/press-kit In this week's “From the Vault” segment, OHR producer Jeff Glover offers a 1988 archival recording of gospel music legends The Chuck Wagon Gang performing the 1934 J.R.

Cuts to a government transport subsidy scheme for disabled people will cost people who can least afford it and shrink their lives, according to a disability support service. The Transport and Disability Issues Ministers revealed the proposal yesterday to reduce the current subsidy from 75 percent to 65 percent. Discounts on public transport fares, which can vary between regions, will be cut by 10 percent. Chief executive of disability advocacy group Aspire Canterbury, Chris Davis spoke to Lisa Owen.
Spooky season has arrived! Before we delve into the absolute chaos of October 2025 in the world of video games, we indulge our desire to talk horror films and getting into the Halloween spirit! After that, Brad dives deep on yet another "definitive" version of his favorite game of all time: Final Fantasy Tactics: The Ivalice Chronicles. Chris Davis and Nick deliver some early impressions of Ghost of Yotei and discuss how Sucker Punch approached the sequel from a design standpoint. Brad also shines some light on an inspired new indie game, Consume Me, which is already sweeping up awards but struggling a little to gain traction for consumers. Banter - Spooky season is here!

Chris Davis turned 40 but enough about that... October 2025 is poised to be one of the most beautifully chaotic months of gaming that we've seen in a long time. We recorded late this week but it gave us more time to delve into Silent Hill f, another impressive (original) entry in Silent Hill's ongoing comeback tour. Brad also siezes the opportunity to finally talk about Hades II after patiently waiting for the game to leave early access! Of course, there is more Hollow Knight Silksong to discuss as we each move through this difficult game at varying paces. Impressions - Silent Hill f (9:55) Impressions - Hades II (41:45) 4Player Minute (1:09:10)
We dig deeper into Hollow Knight Silksong this week and take the time to debate some of the nitty-gritty design choices that make the experience divisive but brilliant. Chris Davis delivers some final thoughts on his extended playthroughs of Metal Gear Solid Delta: Snake Eater and we briefly discuss the fun we had together last week streaming Peak! In the news, Kojima Productions hosted their own showcase with a host of announcements including a first look at OD: Knock. We also take a closer look at some surprises that hit this week with games like Silent Hill f and Trails in the Sky 1st Chapter debuting with impressive review scores.

As the clock ticks down toward the looming release of Hollow Knight Silksong, we say goodbye to a bygone era. Strangely enough, that era ends with us revisiting three established franchises with vastly different approaches to modernization. Nick and Chris Davis talk about the impressive - but slightly unambitious - remake, Metal Gear Solid Delta: Snake Eater and Brad delves into Shinobi: Art of Vengeance which has reinvented the franchise with a shift of genre and a beautiful new coat of paint. Meanwhile, Krispy declares No Man's Sky: Voyagers to be the ultimate expansion which softens the barrier-to-entry and out Starfield's Starfield.

This is not a drill. Hollow Knight Silksong not only has a release date... It's NEXT WEEK! As exciting as that is, we have to deal with the here and now. Brad tries his best to talk about Sword of the Sea without mentioning Journey but fails miserably. Nick delves into Heartworm, a 2025 indie horror game that harkens back to the days of PS1-era survival horror and Chris Davis continues his recent love affair with Call of Duty: Black Ops 6 but focuses on the campaign this week. With a little Lumines Arise (Demo), Death Stranding 2, Donkey Kong Bananza, and some Deadlock Beta impressions sprinkled throughout, you've got yourself a podcast.

Nick's making random gaming decisions again but it gives us a chance to revisit Octopath Traveler II; An RPG that didn't get a ton of coverage from us when it first released. Before the onslaught of AAA releases hits, Brad keeps the flow of indie darlings flowing. This week, he talks about Ooo and Is this Seat Taken; both of which are worth your attention albeit for very different reasons. Of course, Chris Davis is coming in hot with his in-depth impressions of the Battlefield 6 Beta! Impressions - Octopath Traveler 2 (8:50) Impressions - Ooo (16:00) Impressions - Is this Seat Taken?

We're coming in hot this week! You may not know this but 2025 is the year of the ninja! Brad brings his thoughts on two new 2D entries in classic ninja franchises: Ninja Gaiden Ragebound and the demo for the upcoming Shinobi: Art of Vengeance! Nick digs a little deeper into Donkey Kong Bananza which might go down as the best "baby-game" ever made. Chris Davis gives his final thoughts on Tony Hawk Pro Skater 3 + 4 along with footage that will haunt Brad's nightmares.

This week brings MORE Superman chit-chat now that our resident comic-book expert has seen the film! Brad talks about Promise Mascot Agency which feels like a bizarre mini-game ripped straight out of Yakuza. Of course, we also dig into Donkey Kong Bananza; The Nintendo Switch 2's first "killer app!" Nick also delivers early impressions of Luto which feels like a bizarre cross between PT and The Stanley Parable. There's loads to talk about but for some reason, Chris Davis didn't bring us footage of Tony Hawk Pro Skater 3 + 4! WTF?

It's a week of highs and lows! Unfortunately, Xbox was hit with another wave of layoffs and high-profile cancellations including the likes of Perfect Dark and Everwild. It's not all bad news bears though. We cover the new Superman movie, revisit The Wonderful 101, and delve deeper into the insane and wonderful world of Death Stranding 2: On the Beach! Chris Davis also played... The Thing Remastered(?!).
