Today is a tale of two narratives: an HOA trying to actually protect residents from a faction that want surveillance? Then, we get back to classic HOA lunacy with a woman with a bone to pick and Crocs to hate. Listen in!

Is wearing Crocs bad for you?

Lia Haberman, writer of the ICYMI newsletter and one of the most trusted voices tracking the creator economy, joins The Upload to unpack where things are actually heading. We get into why follower count matters less than everyone thinks, the rise of superfans and smaller, more loyal communities, and why audiences are craving offline experiences (and how creators and brands can meet them there). Lia explains the shift from making videos to making shows, the micro-drama boom, and why brands like Crocs are building their own series instead of just running ads. She also shares a reality check on Instagram's "everything app" ambitions, why YouTube is becoming the new TV, and where creators should actually invest their time. Plus, practical advice on owning your audience, starting a newsletter that people open (hint: keep it short), and the one mindset shift every creator needs: stop taking platform changes personally and start looking at the whole ecosystem.If you're a creator or marketer trying to build something that lasts, this one's packed.Lia's links:LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/liahabermanNewsletter: https://liahaberman.substack.comInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/liahaberman

This week, Jessica and Sonia are accidentally dressed alike—again—and immediately dive into the very serious injustice of planning a perfect all weather outfit. Jessica shares her brief journey into Facebook Dating, where the options are endless, including at least one man whose background check came with an actual mugshot. Meanwhile, Sonia has reached the “I have Googled parenting strategies because apparently five is the new fifteen” stage of motherhood. She introduces Jessica to a method of parenting that treats defiance like a tactical operation—but with compliments, connection, and significantly less emotional damage than others she's found. Sonia puts the method to the test after Annabelle swings from the antlers of a carousel deer at Funtown, while Jessica shares how she helps Hayden “push the mad out.” They also discuss the pressure millennial moms feel to be endlessly present, emotionally regulated and enthusiastically available for imaginary play—even though their own parents mostly told them to go outside, drink from the hose and return when the streetlights came on. Also covered: the invention of the Titbit, a review of why wearing a Fitbit on your wrist is apparently the Crocs of fitness tracking, children who expose your emotional state with uncomfortable accuracy, and the universal parenting experience of wondering, What the hell was that? before immediately entering the next developmental phase.

Hosts Willis and Kevin riff through a fast, funny inventory of cultural oddities that somehow stuck: pet rocks, Chia Pets, Crocs, and sandals-with-socks. Between goofs about sock puppets, Anita Baker, and wine bottle stoppers, they trace how silly novelties became moneymaking trends. The conversation bounces from garage-sale nostalgia to household quirks, with recurring bits about marital teasing, fart blame games, and nostalgic movie references. This episode is equal parts nostalgia and snark: a lighthearted look at how dumb ideas gain traction and why people keep buying into them despite their ridiculousness.

Joey got called out at Costco for wearing Crocs without the straps in “sport mode,” Nancy had a dream about Joey's friend working on her farm, and Karly admitted she cried over an animated whale video she found on TikTok. Nancy played audio of her son Ben after he came out of anesthesia from surgery on his arm. He spent an hour singing everything from “Ice Ice Baby” to the national anthem, declared that 2+1 equals "six seven", and somehow mixed up Caitlin Clark with Lewis and Clark.

A mime was arrested after allegedly harassing people, covering himself in cooking oil, and acting suspiciously on a walking trail. Joey scored major husband points after tracking down one of Costco’s viral Esprit sweatshirts for his wife. The conversation turned into a nostalgic trip through 90s fashion, including Benetton, Umbro, Tommy Hilfiger overalls, Doc Martens, and Mossimo. Nancy is going to see The Odyssey with her family (including her 13-year-old) tonight. Karly is excited that she got tickets to the movie’s special IMAX format. Joey wants to read the story but in modern words. Lucky 7 for $50 to the Copper Cellar Family Restaurants The show celebrated the World Toe Wrestling Championships by hosting their own live toe-wrestling match. Nancy “Big Toe Energy” faced Karly “The Piggy Punisher” in the match. Bob Yarbourgh from 98.7 NewsTalk gave play-by-plays. A Knoxville woman made news after giving birth in a car near a local car wash before reaching the hospital.

Apparently, my identity change has a dress code: tie-dyed Crocs.I wore them for the final nine miles of a 100-mile race after my shoes, legs, and better judgment had all filed separate complaints.Funny story? Absolutely.A motivational “never quit” lesson? Nope.I'm proud I finished Jackpot Ultras, but I neglected the strength, mobility, and yoga that help keep me healthy. My body gave me information I did not want, and I kept walking anyway. Sometimes stubbornness looks like resilience... and sometimes it is simply stubbornness with a buckle waiting at the end.What happened afterward was interesting:Recovery meant months of biking instead of running. Running is where I process life, so I did not just lose training... I lost one of the places where I feel calm, confident, and most like myself.Then I quit my job.Career change. Identity change. No fixed location. No neat long-term plan. Just me, recording from my truck while my brain operates like a browser with 37 open tabs and mystery music playing somewhere.In this solo episode of The Evolving Adventurer Podcast, I share four questions helping me through this life transition:What role changed?What story am I attaching to it?What small piece of evidence can I create this week?Who can support me without taking over?That last one is still a work in progress. Guess what? I am, too.Unfinished is not the same thing as imaginary.Discomfort is not automatic proof that you should push harder. It may mean practice, prepare, pause, ask for help, or change direction.The episode is live right now. This is what is happening right now in my life. Follow for the unfinished chapters—not just the polished stories told five years later after .What role has changed for you, and what are you practicing now?#TheEvolvingAdventurer #LifeTransition #IdentityChange #InjuryRecovery #Ultrarunning

It's the special weekend “Get It Off Your Chest” episode – completely unedited, totally random, and full of the kind of nonsense you'd never get away with on normal radio. Katie admits she's convinced she'll die alone and be eaten by her cat… before the gang launch into the great cats v dogs war, and a surprisingly heated row over the most vile word in the English language. Then it's brand snobbery at its finest: Heinz vs Chef ketchup, HP vs YR brown sauce, Lyons vs Barry's – and why some people deserve jail for “red sauce”. And finally, Katie commits the ultimate sin… she buys her daughter pink Crocs.

Riley's allergy remedies, whether you're more likely to leave a positive or negative business review, Will's Airbnb, flip-flops vs. Crocs, the Uber star rating system — plus the latest news and sports.

America is celebrating its 250th birthday... and naturally The Rizzuto Show immediately derails the conversation by asking the only question that matters: what ridiculous stuff deserves to survive another 250 years? This daily comedy show goes completely off the rails as the crew debates whether future civilizations need Crocs, Stanley Cups, Ring doorbell raccoon footage, Shake Weights, CVS receipts, a single lost AirPod, Nicolas Cage himself, or maybe just Dolly Parton's legendary wigs.Speaking of Dolly, Lern dives into Dolly Parton's brand-new Tennessee travel stop, complete with BBQ, showers, merch, sparkling guitars, and enough Southern charm to make every interstate exit jealous. The conversation quickly snowballs into which musicians deserve their own themed truck stops around America, leading to debates over Nelly, Chuck Berry, Metallica, KISS, and who really owns Missouri music history.Then it's celebrity chaos as the crew breaks down the latest rumors surrounding Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce's reported multi-day wedding celebration. Is Madison Square Garden really the right place? Is America being upstaged during its own birthday? And how much New York traffic can one celebrity wedding possibly create?Music fans also get plenty to chew on with Bring Me The Horizon's brutally heavy throwback release, Jason Momoa reflecting on hosting Black Sabbath's farewell celebration, memories from Ozzy Osbourne's final performances, Metallica box sets, Chris Cornell reissues, and new albums worth checking out.The celebrity news doesn't stop there. Chet Hanks hilariously leans into his own reputation in a new commercial, Kylie Jenner faces another lawsuit, Prince William officially joins the billionaire club, and the crew remembers legendary Blood, Sweat & Tears vocalist David Clayton-Thomas while celebrating one of classic rock's greatest voices.Movie fans aren't left out either. The gang reviews early reactions to Supergirl, talks James Gunn's DC universe, discusses the latest Jackass film, and previews some surprising new releases hitting theaters and streaming.As always, Crap on Celebrities wraps things up with birthdays, entertainment headlines, questionable opinions, and the kind of completely unnecessary debates that somehow become the highlight of every episode.If you enjoy pop culture, weird news, rock music, celebrity gossip, and conversations that spiral from national history into Dolly Parton truck stops in record time, this daily comedy show delivers exactly the kind of beautiful nonsense you've come to expect.Thanks for making The Rizzuto Show part of your day. Whether you're commuting, working, pretending to work, or hiding from your responsibilities, we're happy to provide the soundtrack for your poor life choices.One more thing…If you could put ONE item into America's time capsule that won't be opened until 2276... what would it be?That's the question.And yes, someone absolutely suggested a Big Mac.Because of course they did.This daily comedy show wouldn't have it any other way.Follow The Rizzuto Show → https://linktr.ee/rizzshow for more from your favorite daily comedy show.Connect with The Rizzuto Show Comedy Podcast online → https://1057thepoint.com/RizzShowHear The Rizz Show daily on the radio at 105.7 The Point | Hubbard Radio in St. Louis, MO.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

On this episode of The Rizzuto Show, the crew starts with Midwest weather complaints before spiraling into giant backyard mushrooms, haunted furnaces, exploding thermostats, and the realization that owning a home is basically paying to discover new noises every week.Summer chaos is in full swing as the gang debates public pool etiquette, questionable beach water, Fourth of July celebrations, fireworks, and another unforgettable night at Captain Jim's Fireworks—complete with hilarious listener encounters and one brutally honest kid who absolutely roasted Rafe.The nonsense keeps rolling with bizarre news, including an update on internet-famous Michael Phillips, an unbelievably awkward wine-smuggling attempt, and a discussion about what ridiculous items deserve a place in America's 250th anniversary time capsule. Crocs? Stanley Cups? Ring doorbell raccoon videos? Nicolas Cage? Nothing is off the table.Plus, there's plenty of celebrity and entertainment talk, including Dolly Parton's new Tennessee travel stop, Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce wedding rumors, Bring Me The Horizon, Ozzy Osbourne memories, Metallica, movie news, and the latest edition of Crap on Celebrities.As if that wasn't enough, the crew dives into Europe's newfound obsession with ranch dressing, secret snack stashes, dirty sodas, early-bird dinners, and another unforgettable E-Memoriam featuring catalytic converter thieves, HVAC headaches, and an action-movie version of Colonel Sanders that nobody asked for—but everyone needed.It's another completely unhinged episode packed with weird news, pop culture, sarcastic commentary, rock music, ridiculous hypotheticals, and friends roasting each other for nearly three hours.Follow The Rizzuto Show → https://linktr.ee/rizzshow for more from your favorite daily comedy show.Connect with The Rizzuto Show Comedy Podcast online → https://1057thepoint.com/RizzShowHear The Rizz Show daily on the radio at 105.7 The Point | Hubbard Radio in St. Louis, MO.Why Should You Shower Before and After Swimming?These Georgia beaches have elevated levels of fecal bacteriaBest & Worst Places for 4th of July Celebrations (2026)Man with 'world's smallest penis' makes heartbreaking admission about having a micropenisInmate Cops To Smuggling Wine In VaginaMaryland woman upset over Taco Bell wait time allegedly flashed gun, challenged workers to fight outsideNJ man shockingly finds delivery driver's dentures in his Jersey Mike's cheesesteak, bizarre lawsuit claimsDisastrous funeral service ended with mortuary employee sitting on casket that wouldn't closeNaked man arrested on I-85; deputies say mental health treatment is priority after arrestSee Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

Is fashion art? Why is archive fashion everywhere in 2026? Have designers created anything genuinely new since 1970—and what do postwar Paris, May 1968, 1970s punk, quiet luxury, vintage clothing, fashion TikTok, and the decline of print magazines tell us about how people dress now?On this episode of Pair of Kings, Sol and Michael sit down with Dr. Alexis Romano, fashion historian, writer, curator and professor at Parsons School of Design, for a conversation about fashion history, modern fashion trends, and the forces that turn clothing into culture. Alexis studies twentieth-century fashion, photography, women's history, clothing archives, and everyday dress. Her book, Prêt-à-Porter, Paris and Women: A Cultural Study of French Readymade Fashion, 1945–68, traces the rise of French ready-to-wear after World War II through garments, Vogue and Elle, film, photography, oral history, and the lives of women who bought and wore the clothes.The conversation begins with a fit check spanning Rick Owens, Crocs, selvedge denim, and a vintage Mollie Parnis Ultrasuede set before asking whose clothing gets preserved as fashion history. Museums often prioritize haute couture, luxury fashion, and famous designers, while everyday sportswear, workwear, ready-to-wear, and heavily worn garments disappear. Alexis explains why ordinary clothing and oral history create a richer record.Sol, Michael, and Alexis trace French prêt-à-porter and its tension with haute couture. They discuss how postwar modernization, technology, urban life, New Wave cinema, fashion magazines, photography, and changing ideas about women shaped the modern fashion industry. They examine how ready-made clothing became fashionable rather than merely practical, why casual dress grew alongside social liberalization, and how fast fashion represents the latest stage of a much longer ready-to-wear system.That history leads directly into the fashion landscape of 2026. Why do many well-dressed people now choose either expensive designer clothing or vintage and secondhand clothes? Why are the 1990s and Y2K still being recycled? Has archive culture made younger consumers more historically literate—or convinced them that old clothes are automatically better than new design? The episode connects the 1970s “beige decade” to The Row-era minimalism, natural-looking materials, texture, tactility, pared-back luxury, and the quiet-luxury conversation. Alexis breaks down the decade's competing trends: American sportswear, punk fashion, disco style, polyester, plastic, lamé, bold color, natural fabrics, wide-leg trousers, and Ultrasuede. Contradictory aesthetics existed at once—much like today's mix of minimalism, maximalism, streetwear, high fashion, and microtrends.A major section asks the central question: is fashion art? The group discusses The Met Costume Institute's 2026 Costume Art exhibition, the Museum at FIT, the Whitney Museum, MoMu Antwerp, and the growth of museum fashion exhibitions. Rick Owens becomes a case study in how a garment can be a consumer product, collectible design, personal uniform, museum object, and artwork at the same time. They also discuss Yohji Yamamoto exhibitions, the boundary between a fashion store and an art gallery, museum merchandise, and why fashion may be “the art of the people”—an art form audiences can wear, touch, collect, alter, and recognize in their own closets.This episode is part of Pair of Kings' exploration of “integrated fashion”: the idea that brands increasingly operate across clothing, art, media, music, fragrance, retail, technology, museums, and lifestyle, while consumers build wardrobes around their hobbies, identities, communities, and references. Fashion is not only what appears on a runway. It is also what gets worn, photographed, posted, remembered, collected, studied, resold, copied, preserved, and eventually called history.Whether you follow high fashion, menswear, streetwear, archive fashion, vintage clothing, fashion TikTok, fashion magazines, modeling, editorial photography, independent designers, museum exhibitions, or fashion theory, this conversation offers a practical history of how taste is made—and asks what parts of modern fashion culture will still exist for historians fifty years from now.Alexis is collecting fashion oral histories and personal fashion autobiographies for her research.

Il n'a jamais ouvert un livre de diététique de sa vie.Et pourtant, chaque année il libère des centaines de personnes de leur plus gros fardeau : leur poids.Ancien consultant en stratégie puis entrepreneur, Yoram change de destinée au début du covid quand il décide de se remettre en forme pour un défi sportif.Trop hyperactif pour lire des livres il prend le parti d'inverser la roue et d'apprendre uniquement par le terrain.Il teste sur lui-même, ajuste, observe les effets de chaque aliment sur sa digestion et en quelques mois tout devient plus clair. Il comprend enfin pourquoi son poids, comme celui de beaucoup, fait le yoyo depuis des années et tire une conclusion : chercher à maigrir est un mauvais combat.De cette expérience naît le PBS (Putain de Bon Sens), un programme de 7 semaines pour comprendre en profondeur son propre système digestif.Les membres mènent une vraie enquête personnelle et chaque jour partagent leurs découvertes sur un groupe WhatsApp commun.Controversé ? Pas assez basé sur la science ?Peut-être.Mais en seulement 6 ans et sans aucune publicité, plus de 5600 personnes ont rejoint son programme, et Yoram affirme que 99% d'entre eux disent que le PBS a changé leur vie.Loin des promesses miracles, nous vous laisserons juger, Yoram expose sa vision et sa "non méthode" :Pourquoi faire du sport pour mincir est une erreurComment le stress, les émotions et les "bad vibes" influencent énormément votre digestionPourquoi par essence les régimes ne fonctionnent pasComment entrainer votre appareil digestif pour qu'il soit plus performantUn échange rare avec un homme qui s'est planté admirablement pendant 13 ans avant de trouver sa mission, "sous la douche en pleurs", et qui a bâti sans trop le vouloir l'un des business de bouche-à-oreille les plus singuliers de France.Vous pouvez contacter Yoram sur Instagram.TIMELINE:00:00:00 : Devenir conseiller du patron de la stratégie d'Orange avant 30 ans00:14:04 : Enchaîner les idées de business prometteuses qui ne décollent pas00:20:48 : La thèse de création du PBS (Put*in de Bon Sens)00:26:13 : "Par défaut, un régime ça ne fonctionne pas"00:30:44 : La différence fondamentale entre maigrir et mincir00:36:53 : Pourquoi faire du sport dans le but de mincir est une très mauvaise idée00:46:03 : Comprendre et entraîner son appareil digestif00:55:27 : Le piège des "digestions inutiles"01:07:47 : (Enfin) apprendre à écouter sa satiété01:15:10 : "L'alcool ne fait pas grossir"01:22:27 : Se libérer du poids de son poids01:39:30 : "T'es pas gros, t'es juste fatigué"01:43:36 : L'expérience du PBS01:52:45 : La force du groupe02:06:55 : 6 abandons sur 5600 participants02:18:20 : "Mon gagne-pain c'est de faire du bien aux gens"Les anciens épisodes de GDIY mentionnés : #493 - Anthony Berthou - Nutritionniste - Comment mieux manger avec l'expert n°1 de la nutrition#502 - Thomas Sammut - Préparateur Mental - Faut-il forcément souffrir pour réussir ?#385 - Jessie Inchauspé - Glucose Goddess - Comment ne plus être dominé par le sucre#447 - Hugo Philip - Cruel Pancake - Faire 1,2 million en 2h : la puissance du personal branding#485 - Tibo InShape - YouTubeur - Le syndrome du personnage principal#540 - Sissy Mua - Youtubeuse, Trainsweateat - L'app fitness la plus utilisée de FranceNous avons parlé de :BCGBuzcardMoïse Maïmonide, médecin du XIe siècleNotre formation Performance IntégraleKaamelottLes recommandations de lecture :“Habibi” de Craig Thompson“De Cape et de Crocs” de Jean-Lud Masbou“Lettres à Lucilius” de SénèqueUn grand MERCI à nos sponsors : Squarespace : https://squarespace.com/doitQonto: https://qonto.com/r/2i7tk9 Brevo: brevo.com/doit eToro: https://bit.ly/3GTSh0k Payfit: payfit.com Club Med : clubmed.frCuure : https://cuure.com/product-onely (code DOIT)Vous pouvez retrouver la liste de tout le matériel utilisé pour enregistrer nos épisodes sur cette page.Vous souhaitez sponsoriser Génération Do It Yourself ou nous proposer un partenariat ?Contactez mon label Orso Media via ce formulaire.Hébergé par Audiomeans.

This episode was originally published on June 23rd, 2025. In the Fly Box this week, we have some interesting requests, including many questions about leaders and tippet. What fly line should I use on my Helios 2 rod for dry-fly fishing? What can I do to prevent my tippet from kinking? What can you do when small stream trout refuse your fly? I have been using heavier tippet and seem to be doing just as well as with lighter tippet.  What is your take on this? Is there a big difference between various brands of tippet material? Can I just add a tippet ring to my 9-foot 4X leader to make a nymph leader? Should the butt section of my nymph leader be made from fluorocarbon? What should I take on a multi-day fishing trip that I would not normally think of? Why am I foul-hooking so many trout and whitefish this year? What do you think of furled leaders? What rod should I get for my 8-year-old daughter?  What rig should I start her out with? What do you think of Crocs as inexpensive wading shoes? What can you tell me about an older Orvis rod I purchased? How can I tighten the drag on an older spring-and-pawl fly reel? What is the deal with all these multi-fly rigs? Am I missing something by using a single fly? Do people fish for trout with poppers? Do I need sinking agents as well as flotants? At the end of my drift I stripped in a dry fly and got strikes. Should I change my setup and move my flies a bit?

The saltwater crocodile really gets around. It's found throughout the Indian and western Pacific oceans. That makes it one of the most cosmopolitan reptiles on the planet. But it's not quite as widely spread as it once was. Crocodiles that once inhabited the Seychelles islands were members of the same family. But they were exterminated by early settlers. The saltwater croc is the largest reptile on Earth. Adult males can reach 20 feet or longer and weigh more than a ton. They're super-aggressive—they'll eat anything they can catch, and they can catch almost anything—including people. When people first settled on the islands, in 1770, they found plenty of crocs. Within half a century, though, the settlers had wiped them out. That made the islanders safer. But it left modern-day science with a question: Were the crocodiles members of the saltwater family, or were they a separate species? With no living examples, the question has been hard to answer. In a recent study, though, scientists were able to extract DNA from parts of crocodiles preserved in museums. They compared the samples to those of modern saltwater crocs. And the samples matched—the Seychelles monsters were relatives of the crocodiles found across the region. The Seychelles are a long way from any major land mass—about 900 miles from Africa, and 1700 miles from India. So the crocs had to travel a long way to reach them—expanding the range of this cosmopolitan reptile. The post Traveling Crocs appeared first on Marine Science Institute.

In this episode, Dr. Steve Judson and Dr. Drew Henderson talk about what it looks like to burn the ships — no running shoes, no backup plan, just twelve hours in Crocs and Birkenstocks because a man in a wheelchair is doing it harder than you ever will. Dr. Drew didn't do it to prove anything. He did it because James Hearn is still in that wheelchair, and the least you can do is make yourself uncomfortable for a day. That's empathy. That's service. That's the race of life — and nobody runs it alone. Tape up your toes and get back in. It's time to Wake Up Humans — stay connected, do hard things, and keep more fire than anything else has water.

This week on This Can't Be Real with Brad, the world somehow gets even dumber. Brad breaks down the story of a man who missed his flight and decided the logical next step was crawling through the airport luggage conveyor system like a rejected Mission Impossible stuntman wearing Crocs. Then things somehow get worse when a guy fakes a marriage proposal at a restaurant just to avoid paying for half-apps and a burger, emotionally traumatizing an entire Chili's staff in the process.And finally, Brad reacts to a man who walked into a police station — voluntarily — to complain that the drugs he bought weren't good enough. Yes. He essentially treated law enforcement like customer service and wanted a refund on illegal substances.Along the way, Brad goes on hilarious tangents about Crocs, Applebee's half-apps, bad relationship decisions, fake romance operations, and why criminals should maybe stop involving police in their customer complaints. In the end, one story earns the “most bonkers” crown: the fake proposal guy, aka the only man in history to turn emotional manipulation into a dinner coupon strategy

She's been self-consciously wearing some off-brand Crocs to ease her pain. Jackie (@Jackiekashian) is largely offended that Laurie is denying herself name-brand Crocs. Laurie also confesses her lack of a palate, a fact Jackie admits she already knows, simply by seeing any food she's ever eaten or described...Subscribe to the podcast, and give it a 5-star rating and review to help the show move up the charts.
