Stupid News Extra 6-16-2026 …Keep on Churning till the Butter Comes

Two British brothers have completed an astonishing 20,000 rides on The Big One at Blackpool Pleasure Beach, which is impressive, slightly baffling, and probably not what the designers meant by customer loyalty.In this episode of Mark and Pete, we look at the extraordinary roller coaster record set by twin brothers Mark and Colin Brown, who have spent years repeatedly riding one of Britain's most famous attractions. The Big One opened at Blackpool Pleasure Beach in 1994 and was once the tallest and fastest roller coaster in the world. It rises to around 235 feet, reaches speeds of up to 85 miles per hour, and lasts roughly three minutes. Twenty thousand trips therefore amounts to about 1,000 hours actually sitting on the ride. That is more than 41 straight days of climbing, dropping, rattling and trying to look composed for the photograph.The total distance travelled is equally absurd. With each circuit covering more than a mile, the brothers have effectively travelled over 20,000 miles while remaining in Lancashire. It is almost a journey around the world, only with the same gift shop at the end every time.We discuss Blackpool Pleasure Beach, British eccentricity, roller coaster enthusiasts, unusual world records and the strange human ability to turn almost anything into a lifelong mission. Why do people become devoted to one ride, one football club, one railway line or one particular café table? Is this admirable persistence, magnificent obsession, or simply what happens when a hobby escapes adult supervision?There is something rather cheerful about it. No scandal, no political collapse, no grim prediction. Just two brothers, one enormous steel roller coaster and a determination to keep going long after most sensible people would have bought an ice cream and gone home.The Big One, Blackpool Pleasure Beach, roller coaster record, 20,000 rides, British theme parks, amusement park history and extreme hobbies. Strap in. Apparently once was nowhere near enough.z

This month I continued to scale Pokémon at Walmart, but it feels like it may be nearing a breaking point due to the massive quantities of accounts that have been created in the last few months. We also went on a trip to southern Japan, Guam, and Manila, including several FHR properties, which ended up being a lot of fun!For more information on the Patreon and private Slack group, head over to churninglife.com.

Ali quit his job a few months after ChatGPT launched, convinced AI would eat labor marketplaces like Upwork. With no co-founder and no code, he collected $12K from real customers—using a faked demo and a cloned voice. Then he pitched 100 VCs in 10 days and got 47 straight 'no's.In this episode, Ali breaks down how he banked $12K in revenue before writing a single line of code, how a $20/month Slack community drove Amigo's first $1M in ARR, and why he churned every existing customer to go all-in on $100K+ healthcare enterprise deals.Why You Should ListenWhy validation only counts when dollars exchange hands.How a $20/month paid community turned into $1M in ARR.Why he refunded every customer and churned 100% of his revenue.Why founders must sell the first $2M themselves before hiring an AE.Keywords startup podcast, startup podcast for founders, product market fit, finding pmf, AI agents, healthcare AI, enterprise sales, pre-seed fundraising, community-led growth, customer validation, pivot, Amigo AIChapters00:00:00 Intro00:08:37 From Upwork to Starting Amigo00:13:30 $12K in Revenue Before Writing Code00:23:24 Pitching 100 VCs in 10 Days00:30:20 47 No's—Then FOMO Took Over00:37:12 The $20/Month Community Behind the First $1M00:45:47 Churning 100% of Revenue on Purpose00:01:49 The Moment of True Product Market FitSend me a message to let me know what you think!

A flood sweeps away Waymo's in San Antonio and we dig into safety claims, and why they really don't get tickets. Zook's terms are flagged for burying major warnings, forcing arbitration, and capping liability. Lawmakers are criticized for framing alcohol-impairment prevention tech as “surveillance” while carmakers already monetize driver data. Plus NHTSA is underfunded truck-safety oversight, Tesla's retrofits for “full self-driving,” police pursuit tech like grapplers and drones, and a batch of recalls from Ford, Volkswagen/Audi, and Jaguar Land Rover.Support Safety!https://www.yahoo.com/news/articles/waymo-san-antonio-still-paused-212804570.htmlhttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CBNfHUhmdq8https://www.washingtonpost.com/dc-md-va/2026/04/24/robotaxis-dc-bill-charles-allen/https://newrepublic.com/article/209475/waymos-wont-solve-traffic-deathshttps://www.nytimes.com/2026/04/24/opinion/trucking-safety.htmlhttps://www.yahoo.com/news/articles/ready-next-car-decide-too-145928352.htmlhttps://www.msn.com/en-us/news/other/exclusive-kill-switch-amendment-could-shake-up-the-capitol-hill-fisa-fight/ar-AA21RESZhttps://insideevs.com/news/793786/tesla-hw3-retrofit-micro-factories/https://nypost.com/2026/04/10/us-news/california-congresswoman-pushes-for-technology-to-reduce-deadly-car-chases/https://static.nhtsa.gov/odi/rcl/2026/RCLRPT-26V238-6269.pdfhttps://static.nhtsa.gov/odi/rcl/2026/RCLRPT-26V240-2255.pdfhttps://static.nhtsa.gov/odi/rcl/2026/RCLRPT-26V258-9757.pdfhttps://static.nhtsa.gov/odi/rcl/2026/RCLRPT-26V248-5125.pdf

What do you do when you’re left with 200 litres of cream? If you’re Pierre Issa, better known as Pepe Saya, you churn it into cultured butter. Pepe’s first batch back in 2009 was, in his own words, “dreadful”. But instead of walking away, he kept churning. Seventeen years later, Pepe Saya butter is served in top restaurants, stocked in premium retailers, flown business class on Qantas, and is now being produced with the Amish community in the United States. In this episode, Pepe talks about: How a glut of cream at Christmas started a cultured butter revolution Changing the cultured butter game in Australia How farmers’ markets help build the Pepe Saya brand The evolution from market stall to home and commercial kitchens Making a bold move into the United States A surprising partnership with Amish dairy farmers to produce butter for the US market Winning over chefs and building a loyal following Launching a new Australian milk brand This is a story about curiousity, stubbornness, and the power of building a global artisan brand built on craftsmanship, persistence and doing things properly from the ground up.

Credit Card Churners are people who repeatedly open and close credit card accounts to primarily earn sign-up bonuses like cash back, points, or travel miles. Is this type of hack strategy illegal? On this episode, Jason and Peter ask financial expert and senior advisor at Magnetar, Roger Hochschild, to explain how this process works. We'll also have Roger clear up a few myths and answer some questions that you might also have when it comes to finance and credit cards. For example, does it actually hurt your credit score every time you check it? Is it actually a good thing or bad thing to pay off your credit card every month? Why do lenders look more at your Fico Score instead of your credit score? Roger also takes a moment to explain the process of closing our your loved ones credit cards after they have passed away. He'll also offer his advice on finding a good company for long term investments instead of trading. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

Best Buy spending continued to be strong with the annual business gold cap reset and good sales on iPads and Apple watches. I also have been making good progress on the Pokémon front with Walmart.

Is Waiting for the "Perfect Time" Sabotaging Your Future?We often treat our dreams like fragile artifacts that can only be handled once we are "fully prepared" – whether that means reaching a certain age, hitting a savings goal, or waiting for the world to feel less turbulent. Kent and Caanan challenge the tradition of deferring life and explain why working with what you have is the most effective way to create lasting change.Drawing from their own history of starting a "no vacation required,” they break down the trap of the "I'm waiting because" list. From the importance of intentional doing to the surprising way dreams expand once you actually start moving, this episode is a call to fast-track your goals rather than keeping them in a permanent state of "later." CHAPTERS(00:00) Why are we still doing that?(00:51) Mind Share: The "Locked In" mentality and the satisfaction of flow(03:30) Lessons from the "Dream of the Planet"(05:32) Looking back at the "Old Days" of starting NVR(07:10) Fragility and the myth of the "guaranteed" future(09:55) Why starting now makes your dreams bigger(11:41) March 2020: A case study in living for now(13:33) Intentional Doing vs. "Churning"(15:19) Understanding who you are as a tool for change(16:45) Worth the Time: Why games are essential for mental clarity KEY TAKEAWAYSWork With What You Have: Waiting for the "right time" is a cycle that often leads to permanent deferment; the most powerful place to start is exactly where you are.Intentional Doing: Effective change is not about just "doing something" to feel busy; it must be tied to a clear vision of your life and your unique personality.Fragility as Motivation: Because health, politics, and social structures are inherently fragile, fast-tracking your dreams is a practical strategy rather than a risky one. RESOURCES MENTIONEDStrengths and Personality Assessments: https://novacationrequired.com/services SUPPORT NO VACATION REQUIREDIf this episode encouraged you to take a step toward your goals today, please leave a review on Spotify or Apple Podcasts!

Dr. Svoboda explains our tumultuous world through the lens of Rahu, an Indian shadow planet which is darkly influencing our society. This week on Living with Reality, Dr. Svoboda shares:The confusing, multi-polar, world which we are living inThe current manifestation of Rahu (a shadow planet in Indian Astrology)The myth of The Churning of the Ocean of Milk and Rahu's cosmic originHow those influenced by Rahu are highly interested in scheming, immortality, and grandiosity The three times of Rahu in the United States (The birth of the United States & Revolutionary War, 1895-1913, and 2015-current times)Tremendous concentrations of wealth vs. poverty and great confusion around the truthNavigating how to live through 8 more years of Rahu The current U.S. president as an incarnation of RahuGrandiosity, spiritual inflation, and ego-driven delusions in times of RahuFollowing Ayurveda and being with Sangha as antidotes to the effects of RahuPutting our focus on nature, our guru, and a vision of a more peaceful future“Human beings are being strongly influenced by shadows, in particular the shadows on their screens. Yes, those are colorful shadows and they're back-lit, but they're still shadows. They're representations of reality that claim to be real, when in fact they're simply shadowy images. Image more than actual reality is what Rahu is all about.” – Dr. SvobodaAbout Dr. Robert Svoboda:Dr. Robert Svoboda is the first Westerner ever to graduate from a college of Ayurveda and be licensed to practice Ayurveda in India.

It's been nearly a decade since Rihanna released a studio album—and fans and critics alike have wondered when, if ever, a follow-up to 2016's Anti might arrive. Which is ironic, because in her heyday, Rihanna was the most productive hitmaker on the charts. Churning out at least one album a year in the late aughts and early ‘10s,  Rihanna's approach to the charts was closer to early Motown or the Beatles than Beyoncé or Taylor. The result: the Barbadian pop deity scored more No. 1s than any 21st century artist, from “SOS” and “Umbrella” through “Diamonds” and “Work.”  Join Chris Molanphy as he traces Rihanna's journey from tropical tyro to commanding chart queen and explores how she found hits at a boundless pace.
