Just how much longer can the Netflix vs. Paramount merger madness go on? (Cue the eye rolls.) Paramount made a fresh $31-per-share offer to acquire Warner Bros. Discovery, and WBD's response — which can be boiled down to “We're getting there, maybe” — is about as close to coquettish as a corporation can get. Meanwhile, Netflix is not-so-patiently waiting in the wings, as co-CEO Ted Sarandos wraps a weeklong press tour to convince Wall Street and Hollywood that his company's offer for WBD (which, as he'll remind you, was already accepted in December) is superior. So what happens now? Elaine Low, Natalie Jarvey and Sean McNulty answer your burning questions about the whole saga and read between the lines of Sarandos' press offensive.

Interview by Ali WilliamsSome bands talk about changing the world. Others actually try to rewire the power source. When HEAVY's Ali Williams caught up with Lime Cordiale's Ollie Leimbach, he was literally on the floor, charging his laptop somewhere five hours north of Sydney. Very rock 'n' roll. Very Northern Rivers. Very “I may or may not be barefoot and slightly stinky.” Which, frankly, checks out. Between laughs about weather patterns and mild coastal smugness, Ollie casually dropped the fact that Lime Cordiale are putting the finishing touches on album number four . Not that they're rushing it. “We're not a three-week studio band,” he admits. This one's only taken about a year. Growth. Maturity. Slightly less agonising perfectionism. But the real headline here isn't just new music. It's Lime Green Festival, their upcoming off-grid, battery-powered, 5,000-capacity experiment-slash-party happening April 18 off the coast of Adelaide . Yes, battery powered. As in, no diesel generators chugging away backstage. As in, the band is fully prepared to risk a blackout mid-set in the name of progress. Bold. Slightly terrifying. Excellent content. The Lime Green concept was born out of a crisis of conscience. During COVID, the band were working on a farm on the Mid-North Coast, diving into regenerative agriculture and learning how to reduce their footprint. Then touring came back. Planes. Diesel buses. Global laps. Cue existential whiplash. Rather than retreat into eco-guilt or write twelve reggae protest songs (no dreadlocks involved, he promises), Lime Cordiale decided to tackle the industry from within. Their approach is refreshingly non-preachy. No finger wagging. No “stop living your life.” Just practical shifts. They've trialled biodiesel buses in Europe, slashing touring emissions by around 98 percent. They've put a dollar from every ticket toward environmental causes they genuinely connect with. In Adelaide, that means supporting awareness around the current algal bloom crisis devastating local waters . Dead fish, stinging water, beaches people can't swim in. Not exactly tourism brochure material. The Lime Green Festival, though, is the big swing. Fully off-grid. Fully battery-powered. A case study in proving that you can run a major event without defaulting to fossil fuel generators. The battery companies are confident. The production crews are cautious. Ollie seems almost excited about the possibility of chaos. “If there is a blackout halfway through, that's part of the journey,” he shrugs . That's the spirit. Punk rock, but with renewable infrastructure. The lineup includes The Dreggs alongside Adelaide locals Alexia, Pash, and a Triple J Unearthed winner . Capacity sits at 5,000, which would make it Australia's largest fully battery-powered festival to date . Casual. Beyond the headline tech flex, Lime Green will feature practical green initiatives: better waste sorting, encouragement to bring reusable bottles, conscious messaging. Not exactly radical ideas, but when you've ever seen a post-gig floor that looks like a plastic tornado hit a bar fridge, you understand why it matters. Throughout the chat, Ollie keeps circling back to one core idea: don't shame people into change. Don't demand everyone bin their petrol cars tomorrow. Replace things when they break. Upgrade when it makes sense. Let progress feel possible, not punitive. It's a refreshingly pragmatic take in a space that often devolves into moral Olympics. At the end of the day, Lime Green will still be what everyone actually shows up for: good music, a crowd, and a reason to forget your inbox for a few hours. The difference is that it might also quietly prove that the industry can do better without killing the vibe. Album number four is brewing. The future might be battery powered. And if the lights flicker mid-chorus on April 18, at least you'll know you're witnessing a social experiment in real time.

A 46-year drought ends. A goalie stands on his head. A player loses two teeth and wins gold. And the outrage? Not about the game — but about loving America. From the “Marvel in Milan” to media fury over patriotism and FBI Director travel drama, today's show dives into the culture clash ignited by Team USA's Olympic moment.

In this episode, we break down MAN ON FIRE (2004) — Tony Scott's explosive revenge thriller starring Denzel Washington. We dive into the emotional transformation of John Creasy, the bond between Creasy and Pita, and how the film turns vengeance into a story about redemption and sacrifice.We analyze the stylized editing, intense performances, and the raw emotion that makes Man on Fire stand apart from other action films. From its chaotic visual style to its heartbreaking final moments, this is one of the most powerful revenge movies ever made — and we unpack exactly why it still resonates.Chapters:00:00:00 Intro: The insane visual style00:09:42 Dakota Fanning went off in this movie00:19:55 The beauty of this movie00:22:57 How the kidnapping world works00:26:46 A dirty scene they cut from the movie00:30:41 RIP Tony Scott: When art mimics life00:32:18 Southern bell Lisa00:34:56 The insanely dangerous film set00:42:36 Gray's Denzel hot take00:44:28 The funny way Dakota Fanning got emotional on camera00:45:51 Our one complaint with the movie00:48:09 The alternate ending00:53:06 The kidnapping process was accurate00:55:12 Tarantino might be responsible for this movie00:58:12 Christopher Walken just loves to pop in and out01:02:15 Why this movie works so well01:06:34 Why the overt style works so well01:08:04 Our official rating & final thoughts01:13:03 Cue the music

What if everyone gets saved in the end… and that is actually the problem? In this second and final conversation on universalism, we dig into the “Disney ending” version of theology. The idea sounds comforting. No eternal consequences. No final separation. Everyone reconciled. Cue the emotional music. But what does that do to justice, holiness, leadership, and the actual claims of historic Christianity? We talk about universalism through both theology and popular opinion. Why does it resonate so strongly in modern American church culture? Is it compassion, discomfort with judgment, or just a cultural allergy to hard endings? And if everyone gets a trophy, what exactly are we being saved from? Nate and Dr. Joseph Tillman approach the topic the way they approach most things: honest questions, real church experience, and just enough sarcasm to keep it human. The conversation is thoughtful without being academic and skeptical without being cynical. If you have ever wrestled with faith, questioned church culture, or felt suspicious of overly tidy theological answers, this episode is for you. Follow or subscribe to the podcast

TAKE THE CHALLENGEWhat does Proverbs 19 teach about being a good person in real life — not just in theory? In this powerful faith-based podcast episode about leadership, integrity, wisdom, and everyday character decisions, we explore how one simple moment on a morning dog walk became a real-world test of faith, obedience, and personal responsibility.You've probably had a moment like this.You're walking through your normal routine… life feels ordinary… and then suddenly you're faced with a decision that nobody else will see. No audience. No applause. Just you, your conscience, and a choice that quietly defines who you are becoming.On a morning walk, inspired by Proverbs 19, what started as a peaceful routine turned into an unexpected spiritual crossroads: my dog did what dogs do… and I realized I had no poop bags.Cue the internal debate.Do you walk away and pretend you didn't notice?Or do you choose integrity when no one is watching?What followed was a literal and spiritual backtrack — walking farther than planned, wrestling with frustration, questioning whether doing the right thing was even worth the inconvenience. And right there, in that ordinary moment, God spoke clearly:Be a good person.But the story didn't end there.When I finally opened Proverbs 19 afterward, the message hit differently. It wasn't just encouragement — it was a blueprint for how to live wisely, lead faithfully, and build a life grounded in character.In this episode, YOU step into the hero's journey — because every listener faces daily decisions that shape identity, reputation, and legacy. This conversation helps you recognize how small choices become spiritual turning points.How walking in integrity shapes your future more than quick successWhy haste and desire without wisdom lead to regretThe danger of blaming God for our own decisionsWhy truth, generosity, and discipline build lasting influenceHow patience and wisdom create real leadership powerThe importance of guarding what you hear and seePractical ways to stay consistent in your relationship with GodProverbs 19 reminds us:Walk in integrity instead of rushing like a foolSeek wisdom before actionTell the truthHonor familyBe diligent — laziness never winsStay generous and celebrate othersAccept correction and grow wiserSpend time with God daily and allow transformation to happenThis episode isn't about perfection.It's about alignment.Because the real question isn't: What would a good person do?The real question is: Who are you becoming when nobody is watching?If you're searching for faith-based motivation, personal development, biblical leadership principles, or practical wisdom from Proverbs, this conversation will challenge and encourage you to live with intention — one decision at a time.

In this episode, Cody & Meagan pull back the curtain on one of the biggest myths in hospitality: that running a rental is “passive income.” With humor, honesty, and plenty of real-life stories, they break down what guests think operators do all day versus the invisible work that actually keeps properties running.From last-minute emergencies to emotional labor no one prepares you for, this episode shines a light on the reality behind great hospitality—and why consistency is harder than growth.

Ever felt the panic when the bell rings and there's still an ocean of class time ahead? Bell-to-bell engagement without burning out isn't just a catchy phrase — it's the lifeline for secondary teachers juggling multiple preps. This episode of The Secondary Teacher Podcast tackles a problem every teacher eventually faces: you planned what you thought was an airtight lesson… and your students finish early. Now you're staring down the clock, wondering what to do when students finish early (especially when phones aren't allowed).Here's the hard truth: no one trains you for the chaos that hits when pacing goes sideways. Host Khristen Massic names that sinking feeling and shares a real first-year moment — pouring hours into a careers unit, only to watch students wrap it up with half the period still sitting there. Cue the classroom spiral.Most teachers think the solution is “plan tighter.” But the real fix isn't perfect pacing — it's early finisher routines you can repeat every time. Not a hundred activities. Not a brand-new mini-lesson. Five simple, reliable options you can teach once and reuse forever.In this episode, you'll hear strategies like the quality check loop, structured peer checks, and micro-extension challenges — finish-early routines that work in a secondary classroom without extra prep or extra explaining. Bell-to-bell engagement becomes easier when students already know the next step.This is for the multi-prep teacher who's tired of feeling like they “failed” when a lesson ends early. If you want stronger classroom routines, calmer transitions, and less decision fatigue — this episode will help you build a system that protects your energy and supports real work-life balance.If you're ready to stop scrambling and start teaching with a plan for the “leftover minutes,” press play.Go teach bold, not burned out.Too many preps and not enough time?

On their way in, Dawson and Jen agree to keep things low-profile before proceeding to mack on the doorstep AND in the foyer, where their friends all immediately witness them doing. Cue the entrances and exits as Jack worries that Jen and Dawson are both too emotionally raw for what they're embarking on, everyone monitors Joey for signs of an imminent breakdown, and Pacey is alternately annoyed by and concerned about his diners failing to appreciate his food.

If you ever want to understand why legacy media is hemorrhaging credibility faster than a leaky stimulus package, watch what happens when it tries to weaponize arithmetic against common sense.Recently, ABC News decided to present what it clearly believed was a jaw-dropping exposé: roughly $40 million spent to deport more than two million illegal immigrants in 2025.Cue ominous music. Cue furrowed anchor brow. Then, cue the implication that fiscal apocalypse had arrived in the shape of an ICE bus.Instead, the internet did what the internet does best. It grabbed a calculator.Forty million dollars. Two million deportations. That is about $20 per removal. Twenty dollars. You cannot Uber someone to the airport for that.And yet the presentation suggested scandal.For years, Democrats and their allies have insisted that illegal immigration is “cost-positive.” They have painted a portrait of a parallel workforce that magically expands GDP, fills labor gaps, and somehow does all this while simultaneously qualifying for means-tested benefits, subsidized education, emergency healthcare, housing assistance, and a buffet of state-level entitlements.It is a neat trick. The kind that only works if you never total the receipts.The Federation for American Immigration Reform has repeatedly estimates that illegal immigration costs American taxpayers well over $100 billion annually when federal, state, and local expenditures are included. Even if one disputes the exact number, the categories are indisputable: public education, Medicaid, emergency medical care, incarceration, infrastructure strain. These are not ideological abstractions. They are line items.Yet here comes a headline implying that $40 million is a grotesque extravagance.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

In this episode, we break down BUGONIA — Yorgos Lanthimos' unsettling and darkly comedic thriller that blends paranoia, conspiracy, and psychological tension. We analyze the film's disturbing tone, the layered performances, and how Lanthimos uses absurdity to explore themes of power, delusion, and control. From its uncomfortable humor to its sharp social commentary, Bugonia continues Lanthimos' streak of provocative filmmaking. We dive into what works, what's intentionally alienating, and what this film says about belief, obsession, and manipulation.   Chapters: 00:00 First reaction to this movie 9:00 Who the characters represent  13:55 Love a good pro conspiracy theory movie 16:53 What does the ending mean? 21:21 A fair take on conspiracy theories 24:30 We're sorry Jesse Plemons 26:56 Stavvy coming out of nowhere 31:33 The subtle clues she is an alien 35:02 What are the black and white scenes? 36:54 The extra details to make Teddy look insane 40:44 The moment you realize she's actually an alien 44:40 The basis of Teddy's conspiracy theory 51:00 Our official rating & final thoughts 56:19 Cue the music

Ah, the classic conundrum: meeting Mr. or Ms. Right at what seems like the wrong time. We’ve all heard it: “I met the right person, but it was the wrong time.” Or, if you’re a Christian single, it may sound more like, “God sent this amazing person, but I'm just not in the right season to receive it!” Cue the dramatic sigh, longing looks at the sky, and perhaps a prannnnnknnkknoinno;njk;jknjnkyer asking, “Why, Lord, why?!” But let's take a moment […] The post Meeting the Right Person at the Wrong Time: A Christian Single's Journey appeared first on Christian Singles Advice | Christian Dating Advice Tips.

Hello EICruisers! This week on the pod we're all over the map of pop culture, discussing everything from Brooklyn Beckham's tattoo cover-ups to cancelled RHONY stars to Taylor Swift's Croydon music video to France's open letter "reminding" 29-year-olds to have babies.We also get deeper into the newly released batch of Epstein files and discuss the fallout so far, how we're choosing to consume this news and why nobody can seem to easily frame this story.There's also some soul-searching to be had as the three of us ask... are WE performative? One commenter thought so after last week's episode. No hate to them (promise!) but it did make us think... where has this insult come from and what does it actually mean?Beth's been loving Schitt's Creek and a dognapping drama, Ruchira's been loving Bad Bunny's Super Bowl Halftime Show and Oenone's been loving Industry and chatting to old men in Waterstones (more on her Substack here).Thanks so much for listening! If you've read this far could we pleeeeease be cheeky and ask for a rating, review or a share of the podcast on your socials? It really helps us grow and keep making EIC. Love you!

The story of Hawaii's hip hop isn't a straight line—it's a flow that bends through island reggae, battle rap, day parties, and studio nights that run past last call. We sit down with Rappa Nui to trace that path from Puna to Oahu, where a poetry-loving kid grew into a meticulous writer who prefers the booth to the spotlight but still knows how to light a room when it counts.We dig into process first: how stacked notes turn into finished verses once the right beat shakes the walls, why he sometimes shifts from pure rap to island reggae textures, and what it takes to “shop” for a studio sound that feels like home. Along the way we give flowers to local pillars—Fiji, Angry Locals, Osna—and unpack how battle rap made sharper writers and braver performers in Hawaii long before algorithms could push a clip. There's a standout chapter on collaboration too: the Kanaka Fire link-up that became a radio moment and proof that one hook can move from Hawaii to global feeds in a day.It's not all highlight reels. Rappa Nui is candid about industry and the discipline it takes to keep the art clean: family over everything, clarity over chaos, and humility as a strategy, not a slogan. We trade top-five island vocalists and essential tracks, talk nightlife then vs now, and kick around a “verses” concept for island reggae that would pack any venue. He shares goals—bigger collabs, stronger reach, and songs that carry Hawaii's voice without dressing it up for export—and drops practical advice for up-and-comers: shake every hand, learn from doers, and keep going when platforms reset.Cue up this conversation if you love craft talk, local-to-global stories, and the sound of a scene leveling up without losing its roots.

Volgens Bloomberg zijn die plannen nu grotendeels teruggeschaald. De beslissing volgt kort nadat Eddy Cue de leiding kreeg over Apples health-teams. Cue, binnen Apple verantwoordelijk voor diensten als Apple Music en iCloud, zou niet tevreden zijn over de kwaliteit en haalbaarheid van de AI-functies die in ontwikkeling waren. Daarom is besloten meerdere onderdelen te schrappen. Andere functies blijven mogelijk overeind, maar zullen waarschijnlijk gefaseerd en in afgeslankte vorm worden uitgerold via toekomstige software-updates. De AI-gezondheidscoach, intern bekend als Health+, moest gebruikers onder meer helpen met leefstijlkeuzes, beweging en voeding, en periodiek uitgebreide gezondheidsrapporten genereren. Het schrappen van deze functie past in een bredere trend: Apple heeft de afgelopen tijd vaker AI-beloftes niet of slechts deels waargemaakt. Terwijl concurrenten als OpenAI met Anthropic al experimenteren met AI-toepassingen rond medische informatie en gezondheid, kiest Apple nu opnieuw voor een voorzichtiger koers. Wanneer en in welke vorm de overgebleven health-AI-functies verschijnen, is nog niet bekend. Verder in deze Tech Update: Amazon schrikt beleggers met extra AI-investeringen: Amazon kwam met sterke kwartaalcijfers, 14 procent meer omzet tot 213 miljard dollar en 21 miljard dollar winst. Maar het aandeel kelderde na beurs met meer dan 10 procent. Beleggers reageerden vooral op de aankondiging van CEO Andy Jassy dat Amazon dit jaar zo’n 200 miljard dollar wil investeren in AI-infrastructuur, fors meer dan analisten hadden verwacht. Onrust binnen Apple over maatschappelijke problemen ICE: Apple-CEO Tim Cook sprak medewerkers toe na interne kritiek op zijn eerdere reactie op immigratiegeweld in de VS. Tegelijkertijd lichtte hij toe dat Apple werkt aan een nieuwe AI-gadget en zich voorbereidt op het 50-jarig bestaan van het bedrijf op 1 april.

Cue the rewind sound because this episode takes us straight into the vault of unfiltered memories, irrational fears, intrusive thoughts, and one very real phobia that lives rent-free in Megan's brain.   In this laugh-out-loud flashback episode of Got HER Back, the girls spiral (in the best way) through childhood trauma, snake encounters, rat-infested patios, sensory issues, anxiety spirals, and the deeply serious topic of white condiments.   This episode is raw, ridiculous, and relatable in a way only Got HER Back can deliver because sometimes healing looks like laughing until you cry and sometimes it looks like saying no to white stuff forever.   You've got her back. And we've got yours.   Chapters: 00:00 Welcome Back + Life Updates 01:10 Selling a House with Kids, Dogs, and Trauma 02:05 Snake Encounters and Childhood Fears 05:40 Anxiety, Intrusive Thoughts, and Phobias 07:45 Introducing the White Stuff Phobia 09:30 Mayonnaise, Sour Cream, and Gag Reflexes 12:20 Dating, Food Aversions, and Embarrassing Moments 14:50 The Calgary Chicken Sandwich Incident 17:30 Rats on a Fancy Hotel Patio 20:30 Food Texture Issues and Sensory Triggers 22:45 High School Trauma and Bullying Flashback 25:30 Parenting, Rollercoasters, and Aging Bodies 28:15 Sensory Issues, Bare Feet, and Clean Floors 30:40 Robot Vacuums and Adulting Wins 33:00 Wrapping Up and Saying NO to White Stuff

A small tip on news coverage. The media can go some small way to redeeming its reputation by asking more questions. One of the current obsessions is the closure of hospitality outlets. A café only needs to announce their closing, and the media can't swoop fast enough with a doom and gloom headline. To be fair, The Hospitality Association doesn't help. They roll out no shortage of misery stories. Ruby in Auckland got headlines the other day after they announced they were leaving downtown Auckland. Now, Ruby isn't hospitality, but the same fetish for bad headlines applies. Get into the detail and, yes, the Auckland vibe isn't what it might once have been, but the real reason they were leaving is the space didn't suit them anymore. They were off elsewhere and days later their original space was snapped up by a business that was keen to expand. Fast forward to this week and it's the Rice Bowl Burger Bar in Wellington. Cue the Stuff headline: "Another Wellington hospo business announces closure". Here is what I know: every story has a story. It is not always the economy. In fact, often it isn't the economy. In some cases, it's wrong place i.e. they took the car parks away, or sometimes it's bad luck i.e. they built the CRL around you and didn't compensate you. Sometimes it's because you aren't very good at your job i.e. your food is crap and there are better places down the road. Sometimes it's about migration. Hospo is an easy way to buy work for you and the family, but that doesn't mean you're any good or understand the culture. But it is a ticket to work and a visa. The evidence, for those who want to look at it, shows hospo for those who work hard, offer good food and good service, does well. The country, sadly, is over hospo-ed. And irony of ironies, despite the closure and woe and misery headlines, we actually have more hospo outlets than we ever have. One closes, but at least another one, if not more, open. But they don't write about the start-ups. Because that would be just a bit too upbeat, wouldn't it? See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Disney CEO Bob Iger is ready to abdicate the throne. Again. Six years after Iger first stepped down as CEO, and 38 months after he regained control of Disney following Bob Chapek's disastrous two-year stretch, the succession planning committee is expected to announce the winner in “early 2026,” aka now. (Cue the Succession theme.) But even as the frontrunners have remained the same — it's still a presumed two-horse race between Disney Parks head Josh D'Amaro and Disney Entertainment co-chair Dana Walden — the world has rapidly changed. Disney has to contend with AI, a behemoth rival in a merged Netflix-Warner Bros., and a charged political environment. Which of these heavyweights lands the TKO? Would co-CEOs, à la Netflix, make sense? Elaine Low, Natalie Jarvey and Sean McNulty break it all down ahead of Disney's next earnings call. Learn more about your ad choices.

A countdown, a cheer, and then a white bloom in the sky. We start with that January morning when Challenger lifted off with a teacher aboard and a nation watching, and we unpack how a routine launch became a rupture—O-rings, cold air, and the way live TV freezes time. The story isn't just technical; it's personal. Sneaking a screen at work, bargaining for a miracle, and remembering how hope hangs on for a few impossible seconds. From there, we follow the thread of wonder into a brighter palette.Cue the Batman theme. Adam West's deadpan responses and the pulpy poetry of Bam and Pow show how camp can be both silly and exacting. We dig into the Batmobile's improbable lineage—from the 1955 Lincoln Futura.Then it's a crate-dig through the Beach Boys Party album, where Barbara Ann's singalong charm and Dean Torrance's cameo capture a band between eras, loose and luminous before Pet Sounds. We jump to Elton John's Your Song and the city-streaked cinema of Dire Straits' Skateaway—drums, Roy Bittan's piano, and a roller girl writing her own movie. We also get candid about taste with Blondie's shift to The Tide Is High and Rapture.Finally, the volume tilts toward Public Image Ltd.'s Rise and the notorious Album project. “May the road rise with you” meets “anger is an energy,” a split-screen of blessing and bite, wrapped in no-frills packaging that turned the grocery aisle into a design joke.Learn Something New orRemember Something OldPlease like and follow the Music in My Shoes Facebook and Instagram pagesReach out to us at musicinmyshoes@gmail.comSend us a one-way message.

Dame Siân Phillips transports Gyles back to her childhood in Wales in the 1930s and 40s, where she grew up in a Welsh-speaking mining village, of which she paints a vivid picture. She describes hearing her policeman father play the piano and sing, playing spy games out with her friends, listening in on meetings of the Home Guard in the kitchen during the war. She also talks about her early success as an actress in her teens, going to RADA, and how she met Peter O'Toole and used to sit up all night with him playing the guitar. She talks about playing Marlene Dietrich and Livia in I, Claudius. This is an evocative interview with a remarkable actress and person. Cue the music.Don't forget to subscribe to our YouTube here.

Today's guest is Martin Bingisser. Martin is the founder of HMMR Media, one of the most trusted independent voices in throws and track & field education. A former competitive hammer thrower, Martin blends firsthand experience with deep historical and technical insight to analyze training methods, athlete development, and coaching culture. Through articles, videos, and interviews, his work bridges elite practice and practical coaching, earning him respect from coaches and performance professionals around the world. In a world of rapid-information delivery and short attention spans, the wisdom of master coaches is becoming increasingly rare. Martin has spent substantial time with two legends in the coaching world, Anatoliy Bondarchuk and Vern Gambetta. Spending time discussing the work of the past, and wisdom through the present is a critical practice in forming an effective coaching viewpoint. On today's episode I chat with Martin in a wide-ranging conversation in coaching lessons on efficiency, adaptability, and performing under pressure (two throws, no warmups, huge crowds). We transition into Bondarchuk's training philosophy: exercise classification, consistency, “strength” as sport-specific force production, and why weight-room PRs can distract from performance. The episode closes with motor-learning insights on rhythm, holistic cues, and how Vern Gambetta's “general” work complements specificity.

Stronger eccentric abilities allow athletes to tolerate higher forces with less breakdown. Use controlled eccentric work to improve robustness without chasing constant intensity. 15:40 – Isometrics depend on intent, not just position Holding a position is not enough to drive adaptation. Martin emphasizes producing force into the immovable position to create meaningful stimulus. Cue effort and intent during isometrics instead of passively holding time. 24:30 – Tendon stiffness supports speed and efficiency Tendons transmit force, they do not just store it. Training should respect gradual loading to avoid disrupting tendon health. Elastic qualities improve when stiffness and timing are trained together. 33:50 – Fatigue management shapes training quality Not all fatigue is productive. Martin highlights watching bar speed, coordination, and effort quality to guide decisions. End sets when movement quality degrades rather than chasing prescribed numbers. 42:15 – Match training tools to the desired adaptation Eccentrics, isometrics, and dynamics all serve different purposes. Martin stresses selecting methods based on the adaptation you want, not trends. Blend methods thoughtfully instead of stacking stressors blindly. 51:20 – Daily readiness should influence loading Athletes do not arrive the same every day. Use simple readiness cues like bar speed and coordination to adjust training. Flexibility in programming helps preserve long term progress. 1:00:10 – Durability is built over time, not rushed Long term development requires patience and consistency. Martin reinforces gradual progression to protect connective tissue. not short term peaks. Quotes from Martin Bingisser “Eccentric strength is what allows athletes to absorb and redirect force safely.” “An isometric only works if there is intent behind it.” “Tendons are not passive structures, they are active contributors to performance.” “Fatigue is not the enemy, but unmanaged fatigue is.” “You have to choose training tools based on what you want to adapt.” “Readiness is not about feelings, it is about what you observe.” “Durability comes from respecting time and progression.” About Martin Bingisser Martin Bingisser is the founder of HMMR Media, one of the most respected independent platforms covering throws, strength training, and track & field performance. A former competitive hammer thrower, Martin combines firsthand athletic experience with a sharp analytical eye to break down training theory, competition trends, and athlete development across all levels of the sport. Through HMMR Media, he produces in-depth articles, interviews, videos, and educational resources that bridge the gap between elite coaching practice and accessible learning. His work is known for its clarity, historical context, and willingness to challenge oversimplified narratives in modern training. Martin has collaborated with coaches, athletes, and federations worldwide, and his content is widely used by throws coaches, sport scientists, and performance professionals seeking thoughtful, evidence-informed perspectives. His approach emphasizes long-term athlete development, technical mastery, and the craft of coaching; making him a trusted voice in the global track and field community.

There's a lot of anxiety about artificial intelligence invading Hollywood; the general mood there right now could be called “doom and gloom.” But speculation about a future where A.I. actors perform A.I. scripts in A.I.-generated movies often obscures the role A.I. is currently playing in the industry.In this episode, the host Michael Barbaro talks with the Hollywood reporter Brooks Barnes and the movie critic Alissa Wilkinson about the ways that A.I. is already showing up in our movies and television today, and how they see it contributing to — and complicating — the future. On Today's Episode:Alissa Wilkinson is a Times movie critic.Brooks Barnes is the chief Hollywood correspondent for The Times. Background Reading:Can You Believe the Documentary You're Watching?Disney Agrees to Bring Its Characters to OpenAI's Sora Videos‘The Wizard of Oz' Is Getting an A.I.
