Week 18 Showdown: A Season of Parity, Ending in a Deadlock!Darin Hayes welcomed listeners back to the "Pig Pen" at Pigskin Dispatch, the official portal for football history, to set the stage for the final week of the National Football League season. Joined by co-host Ed Kleese, the episode focused on the tradition of their weekly "big bowl predictions" and a look back at a truly bizarre NFL season. After a quick check-in on the weather (Darin is facing a blizzard in the Great Lakes; Ed is enjoying an overcast but warm location), the hosts dove into the meat of Week 17's results.The State of the League: Flawed Teams and ExcitementEd opened the discussion on Week 17 by calling the entire 2024 NFL season "weird." He argued that while fans claim they want parity, this year features too many "flawed" teams that could potentially win the Super Bowl—perhaps 10 to 12 teams—which feels "off" compared to dominant dynasties of past eras (like the 70s Steelers, Dolphins, and Raiders).Darin countered, arguing that the unpredictability creates "spice," keeps more fan bases engaged, and confuses oddsmakers. Both hosts agreed that teams like the Eagles appear "fraudulent" this year, but the open field makes every playoff game matter.Week 17 Results: The Parity Extends to the Pig Pen!After 17 weeks of predictions, Darin and Ed have arrived at a spectacular and unexpected dead heat, ensuring that Week 18 will serve as the ultimate tiebreaker.Darin Hayes6 Points78 PointsSuccessfully pegged the Seahawks victory over the Panthers (2 pts) and correctly predicted the low-scoring nature of the Eagles/Bills game (2 pts). He also gained points for the Texans and 49ers wins.Ed Kleese5 Points78 PointsAlso secured a win on the Seahawks game (2 pts) and earned 2 points for correctly picking the Browns win over the Steelers. Ed acknowledged he was wrong about the Rams rolling the Falcons and his "Christmas sweep" prediction.The Score: Darin 78, Ed 78. The hosts are perfectly tied entering the final week!Week 18 Predictions: Tiebreaker TimeWith everything on the line, the hosts offered their picks for the critical games in Week 18, setting up a head-to-head battle to claim bragging rights for the regular season.Cincinnati Bengals vs. Cleveland BrownsThis matchup features two teams out of the playoff hunt, but both analysts agreed the game holds significant individual narratives.The Storylines:Myles Garrett's Record Chase:Browns defensive end Myles Garrett is seeking one final sack to potentially break the single-season record currently held by T.J. Watt and Michael Strahan. Darin believes the Browns will be actively playing to help Garrett achieve this milestone.Joe Burrow's Future:Darin brought up media speculation that Joe Burrow may be growing dissatisfied with the Bengals organization, adding a layer of uncertainty to his performance in a seemingly meaningless game. Ed, however, strongly dismissed this, arguing that Burrow is under contract and elite quarterbacks rarely get traded.The Prediction:Darin's Pick:Bengals Win(with a caveat that Myles Garrett gets his record sack).Ed's Stance:Agrees Garrett likely gets the record, but doesn't see Burrow leaving Cincinnati.Houston Texans vs. Indianapolis ColtsThis game, while not guaranteeing a division title for the Texans, allows them to finish their strong regular season with momentum.The Storylines:Texans...

Caomh McGillion briefly stops by to help Cam sum up Bruce Willis' 30 VOD & Limited Release Movies prior to his retirement.   Which initial ones were rather reasonable B-movies/unofficial DIE HARD sequels?   Which ones easily rivaled the most infamous Steven Seagal/Mel Gibson/John Travolta/Sylvester Stallone/Eric Roberts/Mickey Rourke movies of late?   How did the producer of NARC/LONE SURVIVOR/THE IRISHMAN orchestrate such a ponzi scheme with these bottom-of-the-barrel Action flicks?   Were any of the other ensemble comedies & mystery flicks surprisingly well-done despite only having Bruce in a brief part?   All that and a proper farewell to one of cinema's once popular stars!     MOVIES REVIEWED: Set Up, Catch .44, Lay the Favorite, The Cold Light of Day, Fire with Fire, The Prince, Vice (2015), Rock the Kasbah, Extraction (2016), Precious Cargo, Marauders, Once Upon a Time in Venice, First Kill, Acts of Violence, Reprisal, Air Strike, Motherless Brooklyn, 10 Minutes Gone, Trauma Center, Survive the Night, Hard Kill, Breach, Cosmic Sin, Midnight in the Switchgrass, Out of Death, Survive the Game, APEX, Deadlock, Fortress, American Siege, Gasoline Alley, A Day to Die, Fortress: Sniper's Eye, Corrective Measures, Vendetta (2022), White Elephant, Wrong Place, Wire Room, Paradise City & Assassin (2023)             MUSIC USED: "Torn Jeans Medium" by Apple Free-To-Use Music.   "Die Hard 1 & 3 Trailer Music" by John Erik Alexander.   "Cool Rock," "Exhilarate," "Hitman," "Hot Rock," "Delay Rock" and "Rock Hybrid" by Kevin MacLeod.

The Emperor's Intervention and the Deadlock over Unconditional Surrender: Colleague Evan Thomas recounts that despite two atomic bombings, War Minister Anami proposed national suicide rather than surrender, deadlocking the Supreme Council, with Emperor Hirohito finally intervening to accept the Potsdam Declaration, though negotiations stalled over the status of the Emperor as the leadership feared execution for war crimes if they accepted unconditional surrender. 1934 TOKYO

It’s an annual tradition. On the eve of the worst most popular metal and hard rock songs of the year, we celebrate by listening to the songs we liked best this year. Jordan didn’t find much in the world of heavy metal that turned his crank so he turned his ears to the sounds orbiting metal. Like every year, I just wanna rock so I found a few rockin’ tunes for you to get hyped to. If you like anything here, I highly recommend that you check out these bands and buy their albums, go see their shows, and otherwise hype them up. We will see you next week for the biggest mess of the year. Music featured on this episode: Deadlock – Acedia – The Downfall’s Symphony Steröid – Arena Show (Rockin’ Alone) The Birthday Massacre – Wish ESOCTRILHIUM – Hypnotic Danse Macabre of the Blind Noctivagants Wisp – Sword Wytch Hazel – Elements This program is available on Spotify.

Message us here!Ever feel a conversation snap from “let's talk” to “we're yelling” in seconds? When you find yourself butting heads with someone over a "sensitive" topic, it can seem impossible to get on the same page. In this episode, I unpack a research-backed way to dissolve stalemates and actually influence change without steamrolling the person you love. The trick isn't the perfect comeback: it's validation, or "tactical empathy."I talk about the clinical science behind validation that reveals why it's so powerful biologically. Then I talk through practical steps for using validation to go from talking AT each other to talking TO each other. These strategies lowers defensiveness, overwhelm, and hostility. Then, I walk through everyday examples (from talking about drinking and mental health to bedtime battles with a stubborn toddler)and show how to pivot from adversaries to teammates facing the same problem.I also cover what to do when someone shuts down entirely, how to validate the wall itself, and why this approach is especially powerful with sadness and shame. If you've been stuck in circular fights, these tools can open a path to collaboration, progress, and a little peace at home.Support the showIf you're navigating someone's mental health or emotional issues, join KulaMind, our community and support platform.

French politics has been in disarray since President Emmanuel Macron called an early legislative election last year, producing a deeply fragmented National Assembly. Now, with Prime Minister Sébastien Lecornu resigning after less than a month in the job, there are fears the French parliament has plunged into political deadlock.

Today's Headlines: President Trump's creeping authoritarianism tour continues. The White House ordered 300 Illinois National Guard troops federalized to “protect federal assets” during ongoing ICE raids in Chicago — even though a federal judge (a Trump appointee, no less) just blocked a similar deployment in Portland for being, quote, “untethered to the facts.” Meanwhile, California Governor Gavin Newsom is suing over Trump sending his state's Guard to Portland, telling him to get his own troops. Those troops, by the way, are backing ICE's new “Operation Midway Blitz,” a dystopian raid that saw helicopters, grenades, and tear gas used on a Chicago apartment building at 1am, and the administration has since pressured Apple and Google to remove apps that warn users of ICE activity — both complied within hours. In other weird Trump administration things, the Treasury Department is reportedly considering minting a $1 coin featuring Trump's face and the slogan “Fight Fight Fight” for the U.S.'s 250th anniversary, while the longtime director of the Eisenhower Presidential Library was ousted after refusing to hand over a historic sword for Trump to gift to King Charles (yes, really). In South Carolina, a state judge and her husband barely escaped a massive house fire that's now under investigation. Abroad, Trump says a Gaza ceasefire deal is “days away,” despite Netanyahu reportedly responding to him with classic Bibi pessimism. Over 450 activists, including Greta Thunberg, were detained after the Israeli navy intercepted the “Global Sumud Flotilla,” with reports of abuse in detention. Also, Sean “Diddy” Combs was sentenced to just over four years in prison on prostitution-related charges — and apparently had speaking gigs lined up for the same week. And finally,, the government remains shut down while Speaker Mike Johnson continues to block the swearing-in of congresswoman-elect Adelita Grijalva.

Send us a textHave you ever felt caught in a mental deadlock, trying to reconcile your spiritual nature with worldly fears? In this illuminating episode of ACIM Deep Dive, we explore the profound concept of how the mind creates conflict by attempting to hold both truth and illusion simultaneously.When we believe that both the power of creation (which is real, eternal, and of God) and miscreation (which has no effects but seems to generate fear) can coexist, we experience a paralyzing deadlock. Jesus teaches us that this level confusion—treating illusion as if it's on the same level as truth—is the source of nearly all suffering.The resolution comes through a radical recognition: "The conflict cannot disappear until it is fully recognized that miscreation is not real and therefore there is no conflict." This isn't spiritual bypassing; it's seeing through the illusion while allowing whatever arises to pass through your awareness.Through practical examples and personal stories, we explore how to distinguish between inappropriate denial (pretending conflict isn't there) and healing recognition (acknowledging feelings while seeing they have no power). We discover that nothing fearful exists in God's creation, and fear only becomes "real" when we assign reality to illusion.Perhaps most liberating is Jesus's assurance that though we have miscreated "in a very genuine sense," we "need neither continue to do so nor suffer from past errors." Our miscreations were undone the instant they occurred, and now we're simply accepting the correction that's already complete.Ready to break free from mental conflict and experience the peace that comes from knowing what's real? Listen now and remember to laugh at what never was.Support the show

The negotiation and approval of the U.S. budget is a complex process, filled with political bargaining and high-stakes showdowns that can have a profound impact far beyond Washington. This process directly shapes funding for foreign aid, global health, and humanitarian crises around the world. With the Trump administration proposing a “pocket rescission” package that would cut an additional $5 billion from foreign assistance, its approval would have a significant impact on the global development sector. To gain insight into the complexities of the U.S. budget and its implications for the development sector, Business Editor David Ainsworth sits down with Senior Reporters Adva Saldinger and Michael Igoe for this special episode of our weekly podcast series.
