Greg Jenner is joined in ancient Greece by Professor Edith Hall and comedian Dan Schreiber to learn all about famous philosopher Aristotle and his world changing ideas. Born a doctor's son in the coastal settlement of Stagira, Aristotle would go on to revolutionise intellectual life in the west, writing on everything from theatre and the arts to politics, moral philosophy and zoology. After studying under Plato at his academy, Aristotle became a teacher himself, tutoring none other than a young Alexander the Great in Macedon before returning to Athens to found his own school, the Lyceum. And yet this extraordinary life came to an end in exile, after he was banished from his beloved Athens. This episode charts Aristotle's incredible rise and fall, exploring his intellectual career and philosophical ideas alongside his friendships and romances, and asking whether despite his views on women and slavery he deserves the title of the greatest Greek philosopher. If you're a fan of ancient academic rivalries, bloodthirsty kings, and incredible scientific discoveries, you'll love our episode on Aristotle.If you want more Greek philosophers with Professor Edith, check out our episode on Pythagoras.

Actor, comedian, and podcaster Rhys Darby returns to the show to talk about new episodes of The Cryptid Factor show, and all things monstrous and extraterrestrial — as well as the significance of his show Our Flag Means Death, which ended far too soon. You know Rhys Darby from Flight of the Conchords, the Jumanji reboots. the What We Do in the Shadows film, The X-Files revival, Hunt for the Wilderpeople, and most recently as the gentleman pirate Stede Bonnet in Our Flag Means Death alongside his buddy Taika Waititi. But Rhys Darby is also a fan of high strangeness, and is one-third of the long-running podcast The Cryptid Factor with Dan Schreiber, and Leon 'Buttons' Kirkbeck. Since 2008 they have passionately (and often awkwardly) been discussing 'cryptids' and monsters like Yeti, Chupacabra, Bigfoot and Nessie - as well as weird news of the world, UFO's, time travelers, robots and space stuff. Though they take these pseudosciences as seriously as they can, they struggle to take themselves seriously at all.

Dan Schreiber is a dedicated fitness enthusiast and a former athlete who enjoys the simplicity and effectiveness of outdoor exercises. With a philosophy rooted in maximizing training efficiency, Dan appreciates workouts that integrate both strength and conditioning without the confines of traditional gym settings. Embracing the freedom of outdoor activities, he often engages in HIIT (High-Intensity Interval Training), plyometrics, and hiking to maintain a robust fitness regimen. His athletic background has significantly influenced his views on training methodologies. He often reflects on the traditional approach of separating weight training and field drills in sports training, advocating for a more seamless integration of these components. His experience led him to develop Wearbands--innovative training aids that combine strength training with functional movement, ensuring a comprehensive workout aligning with the natural movements experienced in sports and everyday life. In his pursuit of fitness, Dan is always searching for or creating tools that simulate the demands of athletic performance while simplifying the process, enabling him to stay active, engaged, and perpetually ready for any physical challenge. Regarding pricing and customization, Dan states, "We have different packages, but things start at roughly $100. We have a youth package for $80. We have different resistance levels as well, which when compared to the competition, they try to do the one-size-fits-all and compete on price. If you're going to put resistance bands on a body, it can't be one size fits all. If you do that, it's only going to work for a very narrow range of people. So we create multiple levels."  Key themes discussed Resistance bands activate entire kinetic chain effectively. Questioning patent protection and promoting marketing over legal action. Valuing fair prices for athletic product results. Entrepreneurship, NIL, grassroots marketing, industry's future. Patience in business for long-term success. A few key takeaways: 1. Dan's journey developing WearBands highlights how personal challenges can lead to innovative solutions. His transition from college athlete to a busy father seeking efficient workout solutions exemplifies how personal needs often drive innovation. 2. WearBands is aimed at integrating resistance training seamlessly into everyday movements. This product emphasizes enhancing performance without altering natural movement patterns, intending to engage the whole kinetic chain. 3. Dan emphasizes the importance of patience and focus on generating profits. This approach ensures sustainability and longevity, avoiding the pitfalls of chasing unprofitable or premature expansion. 4. Dan also mentioned his strategic shift from broad online advertising to targeted outreach, to specific retail environments and sports associations. This demonstrates a focused approach to growth, doubling down on sectors that show the most promise. 5. Another recurring theme is the challenge of educating the market about an innovative product like WearBands. Dan chats about his experiences of gradual adoption among professionals and the importance of having credible endorsements and scientifically backed data.

"They came to believe Slenderman was sending his army after them"Kathleen Hale, originally from Wisconsin, writes about crime and social media. Her fourth book, SLENDERMAN, was nominated for an Edgar Prize and won the 2023 Midland Writers Award for Non Fiction. It tells the story behind the Slenderman stabbings in Wisconsin, USA, which shocked the local community and the world. The violence of Morgan Geyser and Anissa Weiser, the two twelve-year-old girls who attempted to stab their classmate to death, was extreme, but what seemed even more frightening was that they had done so under the influence of an internet meme, the so-called 'Slenderman'.Warning: This episode contains strong language and descriptions of violence, which may not be suitable for all listeners, especially younger weirdos.
