Nikola Tesla invented our world. So why does Doctor Who keep trying to give him credit for WiFi? Nikola Tesla's Night of Terror has everything a great historical needs on paper: one of history's weirdest geniuses, Thomas Edison as his foil, a terrific Goran Višnjić performance, and alien scavengers who could have been the cosmic extension of the Edison-Tesla rivalry. Instead, the sparks never quite make the jump. Join us as we investigate fan service without a payoff, a suspiciously Racnoss-y queen, Wardenclyffe science that probably never would have worked, Edison's alleged elephant snuff film, Tesla's belief in female supremacy, and the Douglas Adams-level idea hiding inside an episode that never quite realizes it.

The Afro Druid Practice of Grounded Calm: Stepping out of mental tailspins and body tension through breathwork, pool water therapy, wrist and ankle rotations, and gentle, mindful movement. Absurd Realities in Douglas Adams's Mostly Harmless: Reflecting on forgotten missions, running from past identities, and how attempting to outrun old data across the galaxy mirrors everyday human burnout. Global eSIM Scams & Tech Vigilance: Examining the international illegal eSIM and banking fraud crackdown, highlighting the dangers of digital loopholes and the critical need to secure personal perimeters. Bravo Breakdown & Monday Night Live Dynamics: Dissecting the fallout surrounding Shamea Morton Mwangi, Todd Tucker's production drama, and Claudia Jordan's clash over Porsha Williams choosing silence over performative sympathy. Key Takeaways When past boundaries have been burned, choosing quiet neutrality over performative engagement is completely valid. Digital infrastructure requires active due diligence—protect your accounts, information, and personal access points. You cannot outrun unresolved history simply by changing environments; starting over does not mean starting from zero. Mindfulness is not a performance—softening the jaw, dropping the shoulders, and tuning in to the breath restore presence.

One of my Rebbe's essential life principles is, "I wouldn't do it to you. But if you do it to me – it's okay." If you do something bad to me and I could really get back at you for it — and I give up on that — I resist the knee-jerk reaction to take revenge, the Gemara says that Hashem responds measure for measure and forgives all my sins. All my sins. In 1972, Rabbi Yaakov Asher Sinclair opened SARM Studios the first 24-track recording studio in Europe where Queen mixed "Bohemian Rhapsody".

Rooted Discernment & The Afro Druid Ethos: Exploring how Christian faith, divine sovereignty, and curiosity coexist with modern tools—from AI and astrology to mindful reflection—when used as mirrors rather than life command centers. The Art of Healthy Escapism: Reflecting on Douglas Adams's Mostly Harmless, Vance Rodriguez, and how stepping away into books and quiet spaces offers a grounded return to clarity rather than life abandonment. Guarding Your Perimeter Against Fraud: Breaking down a Fresno Ponzi scheme, red flags in business, and the necessity of due diligence over false urgency, hype, and unverified promises. Bravo Breakdown & Monday Night Live Recaps: Unpacking the latest drama across The Real Housewives, exploring grief, boundary-setting, and the contentious debate surrounding Porsha Williams, Shamea Morton Mwangi, and Claudia Jordan. Key Takeaways God remains the source; tools remain secondary, and moral agency stays with the individual. Never allow false urgency or hype to replace independent due diligence in business or life. Healthy escapism always includes a conscious return—stepping back helps you see the broader picture clearly. Boundaries and silence are valid responses when navigating broken relationships and past grievances.

Welcome to another episode of Women Petpreneurs Presents Book Club! In today's lively and laughter-filled discussion, the group dives into Douglas Adams's iconic classic, The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy. The conversation focused on the book's quirky origin as a radio show, its evolution through different media; including a notoriously tricky video game and a campy movie adaptation, and why its absurd, whimsical style continues to build a community of dedicated fans. A key theme that emerged was how Adams satirizes bureaucracy, human behavior, and the search for meaning, with inside jokes like the answer "42" and the all-important towel acting as club passwords for those in the know. The discussion explored what makes the book both maddeningly ridiculous and irresistibly fun, why sometimes a silly read is a necessary break from the serious, and how sharing these cult classics forges unexpected connections. Whether you're a longtime fan or a newcomer who missed the bulldozer, this episode promises a lighthearted journey through one of sci-fi's most beloved, bewildering adventures. Don't forget your towel!
Zdravo. Ker naše ideje pridejo direkt iz vesolja v drugo klet, bomo v bodoče tudi "predigre" objavljali za vse. Enakopravnost, pa to. Vmes izmerimo idealno temperaturo piva (5,55 °C oziroma 42 °F) in obžalujemo, da nas na fizikalne žure nikoli niso vabili. Preden se ujamemo v pogovoru o absolventih in letih, ko si prestar za mlajšo partnerko (partnerja), se pravočasno umaknemo iz Epsteinovega zaliva. O knjigi zelo malo, Douglas in Mark končno prispeta na vrt in dobita čaj, mi pa ugotovimo, da bi bil v Grčiji na sporedu prej frape z ledom, šilce džina ali pivo za jutranji "hair of the dog". Vmes komentiramo Ivankino riviero pri Albaniji in ugotovimo, da je Triglav vreme najboljše vreme.

The Daleks are back—and unfortunately for the universe, they've found Davros! This week on Earth Station Who, the crew travels back to 1979 to review the Fourth Doctor classic “Destiny of the Daleks,” starring the legendary Tom Baker and marking Lalla Ward's debut as the newly regenerated Romana II. The Doctor and Romana arrive on a seemingly dead planet that turns out to be a very familiar place: Skaro, home of the Daleks. But the Doctor's oldest enemies aren't alone. Locked in a seemingly endless war with the robotic Movellans, the Daleks have returned to Skaro searching for their creator, Davros, hoping his twisted genius can finally give them the advantage they need. Join the Earth Station Who crew as we break down all four episodes, from Tom Baker and Lalla Ward's instantly entertaining chemistry to the return of Davros, the wonderfully disco-era Movellans, and, of course, plenty of Dalek mayhem. How does Destiny of the Daleks hold up more than four decades later, and is it truly worthy of its place in Classic Doctor Who history? Grab your sonic screwdriver, watch out for Daleks, and whatever you do, don't get into a fashion contest with a Movellan.

Everything is from Hashem. When a person internalizes that — that everything that happens, every delay, every disappointment is sent by Hashem Himself – then everything is a gift.

Send us Fan MailA couple of months ago, Jeff and Bryan discussed the merits of spinoffs and reboots. They decided that, like them or not, it is better than having nothing to watch. Because of the vastness of the Star Trek TV catalog, it was not discussed. In this episode Jeff and Bryan, mostly Bryan, will talk about their feelings about everything Star Trek TV.This has been a Froods for Thought production.

Consider joining us on Patreon for early access to episodes, exclusive content, and the option to commission your own Doctor Who story. A Strike Over a Clock Changes Doctor Who History The story of Shada begins not on screen, but in the chaos of 1970s British industrial action. A seemingly minor dispute over which union controlled the operation of an elaborate clock on the BBC Children's Program, Play School, escalated to the point where production of Doctor Who came to a standstill. Two-thirds of filming had been completed. Sets were built. Effects work had been shot. Actors had been cast. And then everything stopped. The cast wasn't aware of what was happening behind the scenes—some didn't even know production had ceased until much later. Meanwhile, writer Douglas Adams had already decided to step away from the show. He wouldn't be returning. The Lost Story That Became Many Stories Because Shada was never completed in 1980, it exists in five different forms today. A 1983 fan edit using rough footage and text inserts. A 1992 VHS release with Tom Baker providing narration for the unfinished scenes. A Big Finish Flash animation from 2013 that reimagined the story. An unofficial animation created before the official version. And finally, a 2021 Blu-ray restoration with enhanced animation presented in proper episode format. But none of these versions represent what Douglas Adams might have intended, because the original script—if it still exists—has never been published. The editing, the changes, the additions made over decades remain mysterious. What Was Filmed, What Wasn't, and Why Some Special Effects Exist for No Good Reason One of the most fascinating aspects of watching Shada is understanding what the production achieved before the strike. All the Cambridge location footage—the punting scenes, the exterior shots of the university, Tom Baker riding a bicycle—was shot first. The interior sets at the professor's rooms were next. But the spaceship interiors? Those were never filmed, because the production never got far enough. Yet special effects models of both spaceships were built and filmed specifically for a story that would never be completed. The Krog robots, partial shots of spacecraft, miniature effects work all survived despite the rest of production falling apart. It's a window into how Doctor Who production actually worked: film everything outdoor or on location first, then work studio interiors later. A Woman Transformed, A Doctor Leaving, and a Show About to Change Everything Tom Baker—at this point no longer interested in playing the Doctor again—was paired with Lala Ward (as Romana II). Their relationship during this period was becoming increasingly strained (they would eventually marry and divorce, an 18-month union that left permanent scars). Meanwhile, Graham Williams—the outgoing producer—was frustrated that the BBC wouldn't fund the show properly. He could only get two-thirds of the budget needed. He suggested his replacement: John Nathan Turner, a producer with big ideas and bigger ambitions. Turner would bring in Christopher Bidmead as script editor—someone determined to ground the show in actual science and move away from what he considered silliness. Bidmead would also cherry-pick which parts of established continuity "counted," declaring entire seasons from the past to be non-canonical. This era would define everything that came next. Cambridge, Tea, and a Story About Wanting to Create a Universal Mind The story itself involves a professor of Gallifrey, secret books, a man named Skagra with mysterious plans, and a prison planet that the Time Lords conveniently forgot about. But at its heart, it's a tale about someone trying to merge multiple consciousnesses into a single universal mind—a concept that resonates strangely in an era of AI debates decades later. The Doctor opposes this not through violence, but through philosophy, engaging in a debate about why controlling the universe isn't actually desirable. It's quintessentially Douglas Adams: ambitious ideas wrapped in humor and logic puzzles. Guest Stars Both Familiar and Forgotten Gerald Campion, who played the original Billy Bunter decades earlier, appears in a small role. Tom Baker was thrilled to work with him. Christopher Neame plays the villain Skagra in a distinctly disco-era outfit that suggests the production was made in a very specific time period. Most of the cast has been forgotten by history—which is what makes it tragic. These actors prepared for a major Doctor Who story that would have been seen by millions. Instead, they prepared for something that was erased. Romana in Costume, or Rather, in Multiple Costumes One thread that becomes increasingly frustrating as the story progresses: Romana keeps changing outfits, and none of them seem quite right. There's a hat situation that neither host is happy about. But the core problem goes deeper—Romana, one of the Doctor's most capable companions, spends large stretches of this story being dragged around, held hostage, or forced to watch as events happen around her. It's a companion written with less agency than the show had managed before. A Mystery at the End: What Was Douglas Adams Actually Trying to Say? The final revelation that Professor Cronotus is actually Salyavin—a famous criminal from Shada prison—raises questions that the story never adequately addresses. He's dead, sort of. He's a paradox, sort of. He creates a companion (Claire) who suddenly understands alien technology without explanation. And then the Doctor simply... leaves. Leaves a TARDIS on Earth with an unstable former criminal who's slowly fading from existence. No one discusses what will happen. No one seems concerned. By the final episodes, the story becomes increasingly muddled, introducing concepts that don't quite land and resolutions that feel incomplete. Which Version Did They Watch? And Does It Matter? The hosts watched the 2021 Blu-ray restoration, broken into six episodes with enhanced animation. But the question lingers: is this Douglas Adams's original story, or has it been altered beyond recognition by decades of reconstruction? The animation is competent but uneven. Tom Baker's and Lala Ward's aged voices are notably different from their younger selves. David Briarley, the original voice of K9's computer, recorded new material shortly before his death. A final scene was added showing Tom Baker as an older man—was this always planned, or a later addition? A Story in Cotton Candy Form One host describes Shada as "cotton candy science fiction"—tasty in the moment, completely gone the moment you consume it. The question becomes: how much of the fascination with Shada is about the story itself, and how much is about its impossible history? Had it been completed on schedule and aired as just another season finale, would anyone still talk about it? Or is the legend of Shada more interesting than Shada actually is?

Douglas Adams, famous English author, quipped: "You live and learn. At any rate, you live."Sometimes we assume that we live and learn but, if we're honest, we know that's not true. We have to put faith and energy into it. And what do we call it when faith, energy, and living meet circumstances beyond our control? A test. Nobody - not Christians, atheists, or mole-people - like testing. But testing is a gift! And our Lord's testing? It was a gift to us - not just as an example in discipleship, but the whole world to see that he is absolutely in control. Are you going through a struggle? Join us in this week's podcast as guest speaker, and Grace Youth Pastor, Ryan Balderrama talks about Life off the Grid!⚠️

"in league with the thief" [REIG] Arvind Ethan David is a versatile writer and producer whose career spans theater, television, film, graphic novels, audio, and now his debut novel, The Great Game, a historical thriller set in 1905 London. Blending mystery and suspense, the book marks the return of A. J. Raffles — the famous gentleman thief created by Conan Doyle's brother-in-law, E.W. Hornung. Born in Malaysia and educated in England, Arvind's perspective on imperial rivalry, colonialism, and cultural identity is expressed through the eyes of his narrator Balvinder dev Singh, a law student and military veteran who is funding his education in partnership with Raffles. When a brutal Mayfair murder tangles Bunny and Raffles in a widening conspiracy, it attracts the attention of Holmes, Watson, and even Winston Churchill. Arvind's career began when he was still a student, adapting Douglas Adams's novel Dirk Gently's Holistic Detective Agency as a play. When Adams came to see it, he became a mentor. He has written and produced extensively in television, including Dirk Gently's Holistic Detective Agency for Netflix, Anansi Boys for Amazon, and The Garden of Evening Mists for HBO. He has also written seven graphic novels, including an adaptation of Raymond Chandler's Trouble Is My Business. Join us as he reflects on his experiences in these different artistic worlds, and on the unique challenges of bringing honored characters to life. Our "Learned Societies" segment kicks off with Sherlockian society activities coming up in the latter half of August. Then, it's a new edition of "Examining the Pictures," with the film critic, journalist, and author Christian Monggaard, BSI, as he reviews the first Enola Holmes film. Finally, the Canonical Couplet quiz will test your Sherlock Holmes knowledge, with a copy of The Great Game for the winner.

Sometimes we look at ourselves spiritually as a pauper. That's not the bottom line of the ledger. We must realize although the world wants us to believe we're a beggar, within us, we possess infinity, infinite ability to rebuild. Infinite potential, That's in the heart and soul of every Jew. Until last week, the Israelis have been living in a never-never land, a pipe dream world where the 11th Cavalry, headed by Donald Trump, would always gallop over the hill to the rescue of the Jewish people. What now? In 1972, Rabbi Yaakov Asher Sinclair opened SARM Studios the first 24-track recording studio in Europe where Queen mixed "Bohemian Rhapsody". His music publishing company, Druidcrest Music published the music for The Rocky Horror Picture Show (1973) and as a record producer, he co-produced the quadruple-platinum debut album by American band "Foreigner" (1976). American Top ten singles from this album included, "Feels Like The First Time", "Cold as Ice" and "Long, Long Way from Home". Other production work included "The Enid – In the Region of the Summer Stars", "The Curves", and "Nutz" as well as singles based on The Hitchhiker's Guide To The Galaxy with Douglas Adams and Richard O'Brien. Other artists who used SARM included: ABC, Alison Moyet, Art of Noise, Brian May, The Buggles, The Clash, Dina Carroll, Dollar, Flintlock, Frankie Goes To Hollywood, Grace Jones, It Bites, Malcolm McLaren, Nik Kershaw, Propaganda, Rush, Rik Mayall, Stephen Duffy, and Yes. In 1987, he settled in Jerusalem to immerse himself in the study of Torah. His two Torah books The Color of Heaven, on the weekly Torah portion, and Seasons of the Moon met with great critical acclaim. Seasons of the Moon, a unique fine-art black-and-white photography book combining poetry and Torah essays, has now sold out and is much sought as a collector's item fetching up to $250 for a mint copy. He is much in demand as an inspirational speaker both in Israel, Great Britain and the United States. He was Plenary Keynote Speaker at the Agudas Yisrael Convention, and Keynote Speaker at Project Inspire in 2018. Rabbi Sinclair lectures in Talmud and Jewish Philosophy at Ohr Somayach/Tannenbaum College of Judaic studies in Jerusalem and is a senior staff writer of the Torah internet publications Ohrnet and Torah Weekly. His articles have been published in The Jewish Observer, American Jewish Spirit, AJOP Newsletter, Zurich's Die Jüdische Zeitung, South African Jewish Report and many others. A 'miracle story' with a twist Rabbi Sinclair was born in London, and lives with his family in Jerusalem.

Things have been crazy in the last few weeks, so let’s have a nice relaxing cup of tea with two great authors who wrote essays about Britain’s most beloved beverage: George Orwell and Douglas Adams. I will be reading what they had to say, sharing a cup of tea with you, and ranking my favorite British biscuits to serve with tea. Please vote on whether or not you all prefer to dunk biscuits or nibble on them separately from your tea, whether Bourbon Creams or Custard Creams are nicer, and how many minutes steeping produces the correct brew. Try sharing these brilliantly written articles with teenagers, and then encourage them to write their own remarks on the *PROPER* way to do a common task! See the full livestream here:

FOLLOW UP starts with merchandise promotion and YouTube begging reminiscent of 2007, before GameStop CEO Ryan Cohen gets thoroughly criticized by eBay after proposing a $56 billion takeover plan that eBay called “neither credible nor attractive,” which is corporate-speak for “please stop emailing us at 3 a.m.” Meanwhile, California residents might finally receive a small settlement check from Grubhub worth about half a burrito, just as Americans realize they dislike AI data centers even more than nuclear plants because nobody wants a warehouse full of GPUs boiling away the local water supply. Lake Tahoe residents are learning their electricity now goes to AI processing plants instead of people, xAI keeps adding methane turbines despite being sued over them, and SpaceXAI employees are fleeing Elon's “sleep under your desk forever” lifestyle as if it were the last helicopter out of Saigon.IN THE NEWS, we start gently with the revelation that everyone at the Musk v. Altman trial is sitting on luxury butt cushions because apparently the singularity requires lumbar support, before plunging straight into the abyss: fake AI crypto journalists haunting Forbes and HuffPost like SEO poltergeists, OpenAI launching “Daybreak” so the robots can now secure the software they helped break, Anthropic trying to stop AI from becoming evil by feeding it morality fan fiction, and Google catching AI-generated zero-day exploits in the wild because cyberpunk novels were apparently instructional manuals. Waymo robotaxis are experimenting with driving into floodwaters, a family is suing OpenAI after ChatGPT allegedly advised their son to mix drugs with fatal results, graduating students booed an executive for praising AI as if she were announcing the arrival of cholera, and Meta continues its speedrun toward becoming the world's largest scam mall while simultaneously demanding everyone trust its shiny new “encrypted AI chats.” Also: Meta is testing Grok-for-Threads, somebody created an AI poop-analysis startup that quietly sells your bowel movements to data brokers, GM got nailed for selling driver data, Lime still somehow exists and wants an IPO, and Japan's first 3D-printed house shows that the future will at least look cool even as society collapses.MEDIA CANDY features Spotify celebrating twenty years of collecting your listening habits into a psychological profile you absolutely didn't care about during the CD era, plus The Punisher: One Last Kill ironically looking like unfinished PlayStation cutscenes, Good Omens Season 3, Devil May Cry Season 2, NBC somehow turning Wordle into a TV show because every executive has fully given up, shorter waits for Severance Season 3, and Rings of Power returning in November to continue spending the GDP of a small nation on elf misery.APPS & DOODADS checks in with Apple as it prepares Siri app integrations that developers already suspect will become subscription-based hostage situations. TikTok is testing an ad-free tier in the UK because, somehow, ads weren't already enough punishment. Venmo is finally realizing that public payment feeds are insane. There's a Wikipedia clone made entirely of AI hallucinations, and an iPad arm mount sturdy enough to survive the upcoming climate wars.AT THE LIBRARY wraps up with Clowns (First Contact), Dungeon Crawler Carl, the demise of another Goodreads competitor, Kindle alternatives for those trying to escape Amazon's panopticon, and a reminder that Douglas Adams has now been gone for 25 years, which remains, in the immortal words of the man himself, widely regarded as a bad move.Sponsors:DeleteMe - Get 20% off your DeleteMe plan when you go to JoinDeleteMe.com/GOG and use promo code GOG at checkout.Shopify - Sign up for your one-dollar-per-month trial today at Shopify.com/grumpyCleanMyMac - Get Tidy Today!
