Denver is the closest to Heaven that we'll ever be, and we don't want to go home right now. Broadcasting amongst the Rocky Mountains (from our very cushy hotel room), we file our annual report on America's largest beer festival and competition: the Great American Beer Festival. We open three Colorado beers over two nights and relive our extended weekend celebrating beer and the people who make it by running through our Denver-area highlights, recapping the festival and awards results, and sharing from our long lists of favorite beers. Plus, we snagged some interviews with brewers from all over the country that share stories of crazy adjuncts, surprising medal wins, and faux-coctions. We also get into how to properly stress out hops and share a story of how we crashed a black tie concert featuring a 90s hitmaker band - but I won't tell you their name.  Interviews Joe Short of Short's Brewing [Bellaire, MI] - (00:25:25 - 00:36:31) Rachael Hudson of Pilot Brewing [Charlotte, NC] - (00:46:02 - 00:54:21) Amos Lowe of The Austin Beer Garden Brewing Co.

Devin, an 11-year real estate professional, shared his journey from tech to real estate in Portland, stressing the importance of mentorship and team support for new agents. He highlighted his focus on residential properties and explained how working across Portland and Vancouver has given him diverse experience. Devin and Dill discussed the modern challenge of “analysis paralysis” among buyers, noting that while clients have more information than ever, agents must guide them in prioritizing lifestyle and location to make confident decisions.They emphasized the need for adaptability in real estate, tailoring strategies to each client's situation rather than applying a one-size-fits-all approach. Devin shared his methods for managing buyer engagement, from pacing house viewings to avoid overwhelm to using creative offer strategies like repair and appraisal guarantees. Both agreed that proactive communication, rapport-building, and understanding client motivations are essential for successful transactions in today's market.   

Chtěl zjistit, jak se žije mimo Evropu a nasbírat nové cenné zkušenosti. Během studia na vysoké škole se proto rozhodl vypravit na stáž do Indie, kde pracoval pro českou ambasádu v Novém Dillí. To ho natolik namotivovalo k dalšímu poznávání, že loni vyrazil na půl roku coby dobrovolník do iráckého Kurdistánu a letos v létě zase do Arménie. Všechny tři cesty Daniela Vozňáka značně obohatily a zformovaly jeho pohled na svět. Do pohodlí domova se vrátil s nadhledem, ale i touhou se zase někdy vypravit na místa, kde není život tak jednoduchý jako v Evropě. O svých poznatcích vypráví mladík v nové epizodě podcastu Slepá mapa.

Girls has the courage to OPEN an episode with a full Basic Instinct, and boy do we mean open! The episode centers around an immersive theater experience that is the kind of thing that is a nightmare for both your podcast boys, and we get: all the Girls showing no respect whatsoever for performers, a lingering Hannah/Fran fight, Marnie announcing her new status to Ray before getting a surprise return from someone who barely left, and Adam and Jessa go kind-of public with their new relationship. Elsewhere, Elijah continues his spin-off show within a show and tries to DTR at a super fancy Dill party.  Alternating episodes of the Girls journey drop on the Sex and the Cidiots feed, while EVERY episode is available at Patreon.com/KevinAndJon

Ďurica aj o tom, prečo bol v autoškole lajdák a prečo má v aute matrac. Ďalej sa dozviete, čo všetko za tri roky služby stihlo české policajné Ferrari 458 Italia, ako zvládnuť aquaplaning a určite vás prekvapí jedna z požiadaviek štrajkujúcich zamestnancov v známej automobilke. Vypočujte si ďalšiu časť auto-moto podcastu inzertného portálu Autobazar.EU s Ďurom Sabom.Tento rok Adam Ďurica oslávi 20 rokov na scéne. Hoci s pesničkou „Mandolína“ vstúpil do slovenskej pop music už pred dvadsiatimi rokmi a na koncertoch má stále plno, vek ho už posúva do kategórie veteránov. Adam je skvelý skladateľ, textár a hudobník, a vďaka svojej práci dôverne pozná aj slovenské cesty. Na úvod nášho rozhovoru ma zaujímalo, či skúšky na vodičský preukaz urobil na prvýkrát.„Myslím, že áno. Viem, že tie skúšobné testy mi veľmi nešli. Vyzeralo to, akoby som sa flákal, pretože som neustále chodil na koncerty. Keď sme písali test, často som prichádzal neskôr a skutočne som vyzeral ako jeden veľký lajdák. Skúšky som však zvládol bez zaváhania na plný počet bodov,“ odpovedal s úsmevom.Najväčší vodičský strašiak? Križovatka do kopcaČo ti ako vodičovi začiatočníkovi robilo najväčšie problémy?„Vtedy ešte nebola éra automatických prevodoviek. Najväčšou nočnou morou pre začiatočníkov je križovatka do kopca, keď chceš odbočiť doľava. To je aj dnes najhoršia kombinácia, hoci sa už nemusíš starať o ručnú brzdu a načasovanie spojky tak, aby nezasmradla a aby si sa v aute nezadusil.“Teraz už máš auto s automatom?„Už áno a veľmi to preferujem. Nie všetky autá máme s automatom, napríklad náš technický tím má dodávku s manuálnou prevodovkou. Ale aj to sa už zmenilo. Už to nie je tá stará doba, kde sa musíš o všetko starať. Dnes už máš napríklad ,hill holder´, funkciu, ktorá v kopci auto pribrzdí a odbrzdí. Už to nie je také ,predpotopné´.“Si manuálne zručný? Zvládneš výmenu kolesa alebo opravu defektu?„Možno by som to dokázal, keby to bolo treba, ale zatiaľ som nič podobné riešiť nemusel. Na túto otázku ti teda neviem odpovedať, pretože som v takej krízovej situácii ešte nebol.“Máš skúsenosti s nasadzovaním snehových reťazí?„To sme už dávali! Nás ako kapelu môžu zavolať hocikam. Hráme na suchom vybetónovanom areáli, v zablatenom lese aj v lyžiarskom stredisku. Máme za sebou rôzne cesty a všetky možné typy terénu. V našich dodávkach si reťaze vozíme so sebou.“S deťmi za volantomKeď vozíš deti v aute, dávaš si pozor na to, aby si v nejakej krízovej situácii nezahrešil?„Snažím sa na to dávať pozor. Ja už toho na cestách zažívam toľko, že ma len tak ľahko nič nevytočí. Muselo by sa stať niečo výnimočné. Keď som s deťmi v aute, väčšinou jazdím a šoférujem v Trnave, a to nie je Bratislava, ani New York, ani Dillí. U nás sa toho až toľko neudeje. Hoci sa vždy nájde niekto, kto ti na ceste ,zavarí´, ja som už zvyknutý. Máme krížom-krážom prejazdené Česko a Slovensko.“Keď už sme pri deťoch, si rodič-taxikár, alebo nie?„Väčšinu toho vozí manželka. Napríklad aj dnes som deti zaviezol do školy, ale už som hneď odišiel. Mám na starosti len zhruba polovicu týchto jázd. Ak sa stihnem vrátiť, samozrejme ich rád vezmem zo školy, ale inak je pripravená manželka. Ona deti vozí častejšie.“Akú hudbu počúva v aute Adam Ďurica?„Momentálne počúvam náš nový singel. Aj keď na ňom už nič nezmením, už je vonku, je to skvelá pesnička. Teším sa, že so Zuzanou Smatanovou sme urobili opäť niečo a neostali sme len pri jednom duete. Počúvam to, všade o tom rozprávam, všade to hráme, tak si to aj v aute užívam.“Ktorú cestu na Slovensku by konečne mali opraviť?„Mali by konečne prepojiť tie rozostavané diaľničné úseky. Je to nonsens, že stále nemáme dokončenú diaľnicu. Viem, že už...

Snacks, Ghosts, and Shardblades: How to Play Stormlight Archive RPG (Part I)” Because nothing says “epic fantasy” like kettle chips, Cajun cuisine, and the looming threat of narrative-driven permanent injuries. Want to dive deeper into tabletop roleplaying games? Whether you're a first-time player or a veteran rules lawyer, visit RPGBOT.net for guides, advice, and resources to make your games smarter, funnier, and way more effective. In this first installment of How to Play the Stormlight Archive RPG, the hosts take listeners on a whirlwind ride from snack aisle recommendations to Southern Gothic ghost stories before plunging headfirst into the mechanics of the Stormlight RPG. The episode opens with food talk—everything from dill pickle kettle chips and Louisiana's famous Zapp's Voodoo chips to gas station fried chicken and boudin blanc. With a dash of humor and cultural flavor, the conversation eases into spooky tales of Savannah and New Orleans before pivoting into the main course: the Stormlight RPG's unique mechanics. Listeners get an in-depth look at how the game emphasizes both strategic combat and narrative storytelling. From the mysterious plot die to heartbeat-linked Shardblade summoning, the mechanics elevate roleplay by weaving tension and consequence into every roll. Combat in Stormlight plays out with distinctive pacing—10-second rounds, strategic positioning, and careful maneuvering—creating a rhythm that rewards tactical play. The hosts also break down status effects, the permanence of injuries, and the recovery mechanics that keep characters on the razor's edge of risk and survival. The balance between crunch and narrative immersion is front and center, showing how this RPG captures the scope and stakes of Brandon Sanderson's Cosmere setting. Key Takeaways Snack wisdom: Dill pickle kettle chips and Zapp's Voodoo chips are peak gaming fuel; Chick-fil-A fries are their only redeeming quality. Food detour: Louisiana and New Orleans offer unforgettable culinary experiences—from gas station chicken to boudin blanc. Spooky vibes: Savannah earns the title of America's most haunted city, grounding the episode's Southern Gothic interlude. Plot die: A signature mechanic that introduces unexpected twists and narrative complications. Combat pacing: Unlike D&D's 6-second rounds, Stormlight's 10-second rounds encourage more complex decisions. Shardblades: Summoning is tied to the rhythm of heartbeats, adding tension to critical combat moments. Tactical movement: 25-foot standard speed, with penalties for firing ranged attacks up close. Status conditions: Meaningful and potentially crippling, shaping the flow of battle. Injury and death: Permanent injury or character death can raise narrative stakes dramatically. Rest and recovery: Players can restore health and focus through both solo recovery and tending to allies, creating teamwork-driven downtime. Design philosophy: Striking a balance between mechanical complexity and accessible storytelling makes the game compelling. Loved this discussion?

Why do so many women struggle with stress-related health issues without ever speaking up? In this episode, Dr. Brendan McCarthy continues his series on self-silencing in women—a powerful yet often overlooked cultural and psychological pattern. Dr. McCarthy breaks down: What “self-silencing” really means and how it shows up in everyday life The four categories of self-silencing How chronic stress and emotional suppression affect hormones, fertility, and cardiovascular health Why women face higher risks of heart disease when these patterns go unaddressed What men can do to better support their partners during PMS, perimenopause, and menopause   This conversation is about more than symptoms—it's about validation, advocacy, and the urgent need to recognize how cultural conditioning impacts women's health.   Citations: Jack, D.
