The first-ever live recording from an elusive icon of dubby electronic music. Lore is an underrated quality. Neuroscientists have mapped that music elicits similar feelings in the brain to when we satiate cravings, but what about the psychological impulse that drives listeners of a certain disposition toward everything they don't know? It's tricky to put your finger on, but artists able to conjure intrigue without overhawking the backstory can really cut through—just ask SAULT, [ar:pi:ar] or Gerald Donald. Then there are those who don't try whatsoever. These are the ones who stay in mind the most. In 2001, a striking 12" called Ship-Scope emerged through Chain Reaction, credited to Shinichi Atobe, with no other info available. Okay, mulled fans, this is probably a cat-and-mouse game dreamed up by someone on a label with a fine line in foggy obfuscation. Vainqueur on a wind-up? Another Moritz 'n Mark alias? But no: Atobe was real, and really had posted a demo to Hard Wax. It was that simple. Then he went back to his day job—until, after 13 years of silence, an even better follow-up emerged. From the near-perfect Butterfly Effect onwards, Atobe has built up one of the most revered catalogues in underground circles. A steady clip of elegant, transportive dub techno and deep electronics has arrived on Demdike Stare's DDS, complimented by the launch of his own label, plastic & sounds, earlier in summer 2025. Atobe has also made strides into the public domain, DJing intermittently, as well as performing live for the first time in 2023, gracing WWW at the tender age of 52. It's that debut 2023 show heard on RA.1009: a hypnotic yet comparatively pumping set full of unreleased Atobe material you won't find anywhere else. Contact with Atobe, as you might anticipate, is glacial: since we first reached out, the RA Mix has changed name, look and rolled over into its second millennium. Still, patience pays off. This is a one-off we're stoked to run. @shinichiatobe Find the interview at https://ra.co/podcast/1028

Dr. Carole Keim welcomes pediatric dentist Dr. Ian Kott, DDS, to The Baby Manual to talk about children's oral hygiene, everything from brushing teeth to weaning kids off pacifiers. Dr. Kott explains when a child's first dental visit should happen and what to expect from it, and gives tips on how to start brushing children's teeth as soon as the teeth appear. Dr. Keim and Dr. Kott discuss cavity prevention, the importance of discouraging thumb sucking and pacifiers, and when to consider discontinuing bedtime bottle use. Dr. Kott explains that training toothpaste is useful, even when it doesn't contain fluoride, because it teaches children the aspect of teeth brushing that involves spitting. He shares tips on how to make teeth brushing easier or more fun for children who fight it. The causes of cavities in kids are from anything that is a fermentable carbohydrate: milk, juice, and even breast milk, once a child is on solid food. One of the reasons to wean children off nighttime bottles of formula is to prevent tooth decay from the fermentable carbohydrate staying on their teeth too long, but also because pacifiers, bottles, and thumb sucking all change the swallowing patterns and shape of the palate in children over the age of two. There is a vast amount of very helpful practical advice, knowledge, and information about pediatric dental care contained in this episode. Dr. Ian Kott, DDS:Originally from Michigan, Dr. Kott received his Doctor of Dental Surgery degree from the University of Michigan in 1999. As a Lieutenant Commander in the United States Public Health Service, Dr. Kott has completed several tours of duty as Senior Dental Officer in the United States Coast Guard and as Deputy Chief Clinic Administrator with the Indian Health Service, all stationed in Alaska. After gaining a variety of valuable experiences in general dentistry, Dr. Kott felt compelled to specialize in treating children. He completed his Postgraduate Residency in Pediatric Dentistry at Tufts University School of Dental Medicine in Boston in 2009. Dr. Kott is married with two young sons.__ Resources discussed in this episode:The Holistic Mamas Handbook is available on AmazonThe Baby Manual is also available on Amazon__Contact Dr. Carole Keim, MDlinktree | tiktok | instagramContact Dr. Ian Kott, DDSwebsite | linkedin Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.

The Modern Minuteman concept is still being fleshed out and developed with lots of considerations when it comes to modern warfare. Among the many details to establish has been the apparent need for weapon platforms that can increase engagement tempo and firepower offering tactical options for small units and teams. This need has led to many different ideas and perspectives on how the modern minuteman should approach specialized platforms and some look to the military for answers. Although the military can offer many valuable insights into fighting methods, the military doctrine and approach to the use of machine guns is very specific. In this episode Stephen and Jacob sit down with Ben Price (a fomer USMC 0331 Machine Gunner) to explain the ways military machine gun tactics differ from small unit auto rifle tactics. These differences are important to highlight because we believe it better informs the overall concept of what platforms best serve the mission of the modern minuteman.

The Modern Minuteman concept is still being fleshed out and developed with lots of considerations when it comes to modern warfare. Among the many details to establish has been the apparent need for weapon platforms that can increase engagement tempo and firepower offering tactical options for small units and teams. Having a platform available that can offer "flip-the-script" capability has been hard to attain due to laws and lack of demand, but times have changed. Looking back at history and at fighting philosophies that were used to great effect, the "Auto Rifle" platform quickly emerges. To help explore this topic further and to truly breakdown the Auto Rifle and how it is attainable in topday's world, Jacob and Stephen sit down with Cody of Red Right Hand LLC. In this episode, Cody talks about the Auto Rifle purpose and it's role within small unit fighting philosophies as well as highlighting the AR pattern Auto Rifle / LMG uppers that his company developes. We (the DDS Crew) have been extensivley testing these platforms and have been highly impressed by the capability that they offer.

Do you ever wonder why some dental practices struggle with case acceptance—even when the clinical work is top-notch? Often, the real issue starts long before the patient ever sits in the chair. The truth is, your front office team may be unintentionally sabotaging big cases without even knowing it. From missed opportunities on the phone to using the wrong words with potential patients, these small mistakes can cost you thousands in lost revenue. In this episode, we break down why your patient's buying process begins the moment they call your practice—and how training your front office team could be the single most important investment you make this year. You'll learn how to turn phone calls into powerful first impressions, frame conversations around benefits instead of fear, and set the stage for case acceptance before the consultation even begins. @02:21 – Are You Training the Wrong Team Members First? @03:59 – Why the Front Office Call Is Your True First Impression @09:44 – Why Dentistry Has Changed and How to Adapt @15:43 – Talking About Price Without Losing Patients @26:42 – Winning the Case Before They Step Inside Connect with Dr. Tarun Agarwal,DDS LinkedIn : https://www.linkedin.com/in/tbonespeaks/ Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/tbonespeaks Tiktok: https://www.tiktok.com/@tbonespeaks Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/tbonespeaks Who is Dr. Tarun Agarwal?

William Robbins, DDS, MA / Marcela Alvarez, DDS, MS / Bradley Beckel, DDS In the not too distant past, the specialist's tool box was fairly limited in the adult patient. The orthodontist's tools included aligning teeth, intruding anterior teeth and orthognathic surgery. The periodontists tools were pocket elimination surgery and gingival grafting. Today orthodontists and periodontists have many procedures and techniques, which have opened a new world of treatment planning for the pre-restorative interdisciplinary patient. These include pre-orthodontic bonding, esthetic crown lengthening, surgically facilitated orthodontic treatment (SFOT), temporary anchorage devices (TADs), skeletal anchorage plates, micro-implant assisted rapid palatal expansion (MARPE), custom MARPE, and distraction osteogenesis with maxillary expansion (DOME). The purpose of The Mastery is to provide the restorative dentist with an understanding of these tools and a common language with which to enhance communication with the specialists. At the completion of the 4-day continuum, the restorative dentist will be able to actually incorporate the knowledge of these new tools into their everyday practice.
Do you find yourself running a dental practice with great clinical skills—but constant team conflict is draining your energy? Are you frustrated when staff nod in meetings, only for nothing to change later? Do you wish people just got it and kept up with your fast pace? In this episode, we're getting real about the emotional dynamics inside dental teams and why understanding personality types—especially using tools like the Enneagram—can be the breakthrough you didn't know you needed. Our guest, Sarah Wallace of Enneagram MBA, helps decode why team communication fails, how leaders unintentionally demotivate great people, and how to tailor your leadership style to actually get buy-in, not burnout. @06:04 - Why Saying "Yes" Changes Nothing @10:15 - Direct Talk That Backfires @19:00 - The Loyal Skeptic @26:11 - Read Patients, Close More Cases @34:52 - Ask This, Boost Case Acceptance @45:59 - When Words Hurt, Not Help Connect with Dr. Tarun Agarwal,DDS LinkedIn : https://www.linkedin.com/in/tbonespeaks/ Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/tbonespeaks Tiktok: https://www.tiktok.com/@tbonespeaks Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/tbonespeaks Who is Dr. Tarun Agarwal?

Do you keep hearing “I'll think about it” from patients—and wonder what went wrong? The truth is, when patients stall, it's not them. It's you.
