In this episode of the Clinical Research Coach, I sit down with Ella Balasa, a cystic fibrosis patient advocate whose lived experience is shaping how our industry understands trust, transparency, and meaningful patient engagement.Diagnosed in infancy with cystic fibrosis, a progressive genetic lung disease, Ella has spent her life navigating hospital systems, breakthrough therapies, and clinical trials — not as an abstract participant, but as someone whose health and future depend on research progress. Along the way, she has become a powerful voice for improving how industry partners with patients.In this conversation, Ella shares what sponsors, sites, and biotech leaders often overlook:* Patient experience is never one-size-fits-all — even within the same diagnosis.* Patients learn about trials through trusted networks, not just databases or digital ads.* Transparency builds confidence and drives long-term participation in research.* Dropout affects more than timelines — it influences trust and future enrollment decisions.* Technology should support patients, but never replace human connection.Ella's perspective challenges us to think beyond enrollment metrics and toward something deeper: relational trust. Because sustainable progress in clinical research depends on listening to patients as individuals, partners, and experts in their own lives.To learn more about Ella:Https:/ellabalasa.com

DID NOT SEE THAT TWIST COMING! The Housemaid Full Movie Reaction Watch Along: / thereelrejects Start your online business with a $1 per-month trial when you visit https://www.shopify.com/rejects! Greg Alba & Tara Erickson react to THE HOUSEMAID (2025) and… yeah… the title says it all: ABSOLUTELY UNHINGED INSANITY. Early on, let's shout out the heavy hitters and why people clicked: Millie Calloway (Sydney Sweeney – Euphoria, Anyone But You) takes a live-in maid job hoping to restart her life, but the “perfect” mansion turns into a psychological pressure cooker; Nina Winchester (Amanda Seyfried – Mamma Mia!, The Dropout) swings between charming and terrifying; Andrew Winchester (Brandon Sklenar – 1923, It Ends with Us) is the kind of “nice on the surface” threat you feel coming… until the movie goes full nightmare; and the Vegas / underworld tension ramps up with Enzo (Michele Morrone – 365 Days) entering the chaos. This reaction dives into the biggest “WHAT IS HAPPENING?!” moments: the escalating mind-games, the seduction/jealousy spiral, the reveal of what's really been happening inside that house, and the twisty endgame where the power dynamics flip hard and everything turns into survival mode. SPOILERS DISCUSSED as we break down the manipulation, the abuse/escape chess-match, and why this movie feels like a campy, pulpy thriller throwing haymakers every 10 minutes. Characters & Cast: Millie Calloway (Sydney Sweeney), Nina Winchester (Amanda Seyfried), Andrew Winchester (Brandon Sklenar), Cecelia “Cece” Winchester (Indiana Elle), Enzo (Michele Morrone), Evelyn Winchester (Elizabeth Perkins – Weeds, Big), Jilianne (Megan Ferguson – The Conjuring, The Oath), Patrice (Ellen Tamaki – Manifest, Charmed).

Florida basketball put on an absolute show this week, and In All Kinds of Weather Forecast is back to break it all down.Neil Shulman and Adrian Perez start with Florida's 95–48 bludgeoning of South Carolina, a game that was over almost as soon as it began. The Gators overwhelmed the Gamecocks in every phase, turning the matchup into a one-sided demolition that showcased depth, effort, and offensive rhythm.From there, the conversation pivots to the biggest storyline of the week: Alabama's controversial G League transfer. After spending time in the NBA G League and failing to secure a real opportunity at the professional level, the former pro made the surprising — and highly debated — decision to return to college basketball. The move sparked widespread criticism, raising serious questions about amateurism, competitive balance, and how far college basketball has drifted from its original intent.The guys break down Charles Bediako's debut against Florida, where the hype failed to materialize. Against the Gators, he struggled to make an impact, looked overmatched, and did little to justify the buzz surrounding his return — especially in a game Florida completely controlled.That control was never more evident than in Florida's 100–77 win over Alabama, a statement victory in which the Gators dominated Nate Oats' squad from start to finish. Florida dictated pace, won the physical battles, and once again asserted itself as a nightmare matchup for Alabama.From “Carolina fried chicken” to the G League experiment falling flat, this episode dives into one of the most fascinating — and controversial — weeks of Florida basketball this season.
Hollywood's Headlines includes the success of the Stadium Series in Tampa Bay and the announcement of NBA All-Star reserves with LeBron James and Kevin Durant making the cut. Joe weighs in on the backlash LeBron faces for political reasons, while the drama around Belichick's girlfriend Jordon Hudson planning a party the same night as the Hall of Fame ceremony gets discussed. The segment also touches on an Alabama basketball player returning from the G League and Punxsutawney Phil predicting six more weeks of winter.

I never thought I'd be running a 70-employee media company built around two guys who started making Pokemon sketches in their bedroom. But here we are. When I stepped into the role of CEO of Smosh in early 2023, I wasn't just taking on a business - I was stewarding a 20-year legacy that spans five active YouTube channels, a 15-person cast, and millions of fans worldwide. My background in talent management taught me to think about creators as brands, and that's exactly how I approach Smosh today. We're not just making content - we're building a sustainable entertainment company that respects both the comedy at our core and the business fundamentals that keep us growing.What excites me most is how we're redefining what digital-first entertainment looks like. We've invested heavily in 4K production to meet the demands of YouTube's living room experience, and we're launching ambitious projects like Hospital - a semi-scripted improv show that blends SNL-style comedy with Grey's Anatomy parody. But beyond the content itself, I'm passionate about changing how brands work with creators. Too many advertisers still treat us like we're amateurs in bedrooms, when the reality is we have the infrastructure, the talent, and the audience insights to deliver campaigns that traditional media can't match. We're proving that collaboration over competition and authenticity over scripts is the future of entertainment - and the future is happening right now. ---Key Highlights

What does it take to break cycles of poverty, trauma, and limitation—and replace them with purpose, healing, and hope? In this deeply moving episode of the Let's Get Real Podcast, Justin Davis sits down with Dr. Terence Lester, author of From Dropout to Doctorate, nonprofit leader, and founder of Love Beyond Walls. Dr. Lester shares his remarkable journey from growing up in poverty, experiencing homelessness, dropping out of high school, and joining a gang—to earning multiple graduate degrees and dedicating his life to serving the most overlooked in our communities. This conversation goes far beyond personal success. Dr. Lester unpacks how poverty is trauma, how limited exposure can erode imagination, and how one encouraging voice—a teacher, mentor, or advocate—can change the trajectory of a life. He reflects on reconciliation with his father later in life, the healing power of forgiveness, and why community—not individual effort alone—is central to transformation. Justin and Terence also have an honest, thoughtful dialogue about race, awareness, proximity, and what it truly means for the Church to love its neighbor—not just in theory, but in practice. This episode is a must-listen for anyone passionate about faith, justice, education, reconciliation, and becoming the kind of person who helps others feel seen, known, and valued.

In this episode of Ambition 2.0, host Amanda Goetz sits down with Alexa von Tobel—the founder of LearnVest (where she raised $75M and successfully sold it to Northwestern Mutual) and current founder and managing partner of Inspired Capital—to unpack the resilient mindset that has shaped her successful career, from founder to venture-capital veteran.Alexa dropped out of Harvard Business School and poured her life savings into LearnVest, a multimillion-dollar business idea—despite warnings from nearly everyone around her that she was making a big mistake. She did it in the middle of the 2008 economic recession, no less. Alexa shares why her 90-year-old self (and the fear of regret) fuels her to take big risks, the qualities she looks for when investing in a founder, and practical tips for pitching your business to VCs for the first time. She also shares an unpopular truth: if you're becoming an entrepreneur for the status or the “quick money,” it's going to be a rough ride. There's only one reason why you should start your own business: because you can't do any other job. Key takeaways Regret is usually about the swings you didn't take—not the mistakes you made. Raising capital gets easier when you combine mission + proof + obsessive category insight. Feedback is a competitive edge (and ego is the fastest way to lose it). Entrepreneurship shouldn't be “cool”—it should be inevitable for the person doing it. Sustainable ambition comes from doing what you love + what you're excellent at, then turning the intensity toward your whole life. 00:00 Intro 02:46 Reclaiming ambition as a positive force 04:11 The LearnVest origin story and dropping out during the economic downturn of 2008 07:53 Raising $75M and the difference between capital vs. “world-class” capital 15:24 What founders get wrong in pitches (and what great answers sound like) 24:20 Identity beyond titles, exits, and the founder doom spiral 33:54 Speed round: The one quality she looks for before investing in founders (and the one that's a major red flag) GUEST LINKS IG: https://www.instagram.com/alexavontobel/?hl=en Listen to her podcast here: https://www.inspiredcapital.com/content/podcasts Learn more about Inspired Capital: https://www.inspiredcapital.com FOLLOW THE PODCAST IG: https://www.instagram.com/girlboss/ | TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@girlboss Amanda Goetz: https://www.instagram.com/theamandagoetz/ https://girlboss.com/pages/ambition-2-0-podcast SIGN UP Subscribe to the Girlboss Daily newsletter: https://newsletter.girlboss.com/ For all other Girlboss links: https://linkin.bio/girlboss/ ABOUT AMBITION 2.0Powered by Girlboss, Ambition 2.0 is a podcast where we'll be exploring what it really means to “have it all” in work, family, identity, and self… and if it's actually worth it.

Peter Krask, creator of Myth Merchant and former Hollywood producer, shares his journey from quitting grad school to producing reality TV to building a business around storytelling and mythology. After realizing a PhD wasn't his path, Krask dove into the entertainment industry, learning the business side of creativity—budgets, staff, international shipping, and legitimacy through visibility. He explains how being on television instantly validated his work in ways that years of independent effort couldn't, why many people stay in PhD programs despite knowing it's not right for them, and what he's learned about balancing artistic ambition with commercial viability. This conversation explores the tension between creative freedom and financial sustainability, the cultural weight of visible success, and how mythology and narrative shape the way we understand our lives and work.

Carina Hong dropped out of Stanford's PhD program to build "mathematical superintelligence" — and just raised $64M to do it. In this episode, we explore what that actually means: an AI that doesn't just solve math problems but discovers new theorems, proves them formally, and gets smarter with each iteration. Carina explains how her team solved a 130-year-old problem about Lyapunov functions, disproved a 30-year-old graph theory conjecture, and why math is the secret "bedrock" for everything from chip design to quant trading to coding agents. We also discuss the fascinating connections between neuroscience, AI, and mathematics.Lean more about Axiom: https://axiommath.ai/ Subscribe to The Neuron newsletter: https://theneuron.ai

Bobby did further sound editing and added special effects, so blame him if those are really annoying. (He tried hard to make sure they weren't.)Additionally, we ran a test of this game with a group of dancers, and wanted to give a huge thanks to Gaby Cook, Tai Chulikavit, Hussain Jaffery, Jonathan Ng, Sean Vitale, and Sylvie Wainright. First off, it was the most fun I've ever had testing out a thing, and second of all, they helped out so much with feedback and just the imagination of their gameplay inspired us in so many ways. They were also such a positive, ready-to-do-whatever group. So thank you ALL! ABOUT THE GAMEThis DnD adventure was created, written, and designed by Bobby and Ella. Ella managed all the systems, including altering rules and simplifying gameplay to allow quicker gameplay and easier onboarding of unfamiliar players. The dance contest system was created by them but only worked because of Ella's input. This idea came about after Ella introduced Bobby to Dimension 20, a fantastic DnD experience done by improvisational comedians on the channel DROPOUT. Bobby heard only two episodes before going to Ella with the idea of doing a one-shot for Lindy Hoppers.

In this episode of Geek Freaks, we get you ready for Stranger Things season 5 with a full recap of seasons 1 through 4, plus a review of Wicked For Good and reactions to the new Hunger Games prequel trailer, Sunrise on the Reaping. We also break down the new live action TMNT reboot news and what that means for The Last Ronin, along with George R. R. Martin's latest Game of Thrones spinoff teases. Frank and Jonathan kick things off with some Thanksgiving week chatter, holiday prep, and a quick update on the redesigned GeekFreaksPodcast.com and this year's Patreon holiday swag bundles. From there, they talk about Sunrise on the Reaping, why the Hunger Games world still works, and why Wicked For Good might actually top the first film for musical fans. The bulk of the episode is a big Stranger Things refresher. The guys walk through seasons 1 through 4, season by season, covering major story beats, character arcs, and the emotional moments that still hit, while calling out why Vecna, Max, Eddie, and the Starcourt Mall finale matter so much as we head into season 5. They wrap with current watch recommendations and a Thanksgiving thank you to the Geek Freaks community. Timestamps & Topics 00:00 – Thanksgiving Week Check-In & Housekeeping Holiday plans, cleaning for family visits, and trying (and failing) to start Christmas decorating early. 00:59 – New Website & Patreon Holiday Bundles Frank explains the revamped GeekFreaksPodcast.com and reminds Patreon members to update their addresses for the holiday swag packs. 02:06 – TMNT Live Action Reboot & The Last Ronin Delay Reactions to a new live action Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles movie, practical suits vs CGI, and frustration that The Last Ronin adaptation is being paused. 04:31 – Game of Thrones / Westeros Spinoffs Talk George R. R. Martin's sequel teases, who deserves a spinoff (Arya, Davos, the Manderlys, Dorne), and what corners of Westeros and Essos they most want to see. 13:06 – Sunrise on the Reaping Trailer & Hunger Games Worldbuilding First impressions of the new Hunger Games prequel trailer, why the tech vs poverty contrast in Panem still works, and how closely the films stick to Suzanne Collins' books. 18:30 – Roofman Ad Read Frank drops a mid-episode spot for Roofman and why the premise stands out. 18:30 – Wicked For Good Review (Spoilers Light) Why Frank loved Wicked For Good, how it runs alongside The Wizard of Oz, character growth for Glinda and Elphaba, and thoughts on musicals in general. 26:15 – What Did Not Work In Wicked For Good Some middle-act clutter, narrative complexity around Elphaba's sister, and how the dual narratives can get a little dense. 32:16 – Setting Up the Stranger Things Season 5 Rewatch Prep Explaining the plan to recap seasons 1–4 as a full refresher to get ready for Stranger Things season 5. 32:29 – Stranger Things Season 1 Recap & Reactions The disappearance of Will, the first trip to the Upside Down, meeting Eleven, and why the show's early mystery and 80s vibes hit so hard. 36:02 – Stranger Things Season 2 Recap & The Lost Test Subjects The Mind Flayer's first move, Max and Billy's introduction, Eleven's "sister" detour, and how fan reactions may have changed the direction of the show. 40:07 – Stranger Things Season 3 Recap & Starcourt Mall Finale Rats, Russians, mall culture nostalgia, the Billy redemption, and Hopper's "death" in the gate machine. 46:33 – Stranger Things Season 4 Recap: Vecna's Curse Chrissy's death, Max's "Running Up That Hill" escape, the Creel House, Hopper in Russia, Eddie's hero moment, and Hawkins merging with the Upside Down, setting the stage for season 5. 52:35 – Nostalgia Done Right: Stranger Things, Stephen King, Welcome to Derry Comparing Stranger Things' style of nostalgia to cheap reboots, thoughts on Welcome to Derry and Pluribus, and why good worldbuilding feels fresh even when it looks retro. 58:18 – Weekly Recommendations Jonathan: Rewatch Stranger Things as season 5 approaches, and check out Pluribus on Apple TV. Frank: Make Some Noise on Dropout and why good improv feels like magic. 59:52 – Thanksgiving Wrap-Up & Five-Star Reminder Thanking the Geek Freaks community and reminding listeners to drop those five stars on Apple Podcasts and Spotify. Key Takeaways The new GeekFreaksPodcast.com is live with a cleaner layout that makes it easier to share news and highlight shows across the network. Patreon holiday bundles are going out soon, so supporters need to confirm or add their mailing addresses to actually receive the swag. The new live action TMNT film has fans worried that The Last Ronin adaptation is getting shoved aside, and there is a strong preference for practical suits over full CGI turtles. George R. R. Martin continues to develop Westeros spinoffs, and there is a lot of interest in stories about Arya's travels, Dorne, the Manderlys, and Davos rather than revisiting the same old angles. Sunrise on the Reaping, the new Hunger Games prequel, looks like classic Hunger Games with the same sharp contrast between Capitol excess and district poverty that made the original films land. Wicked For Good nails its character work, deepens Glinda and Elphaba, and cleverly runs parallel to The Wizard of Oz, even if the middle stretch gets a bit tangled. The Stranger Things recap walks through all four seasons to give listeners a full refresher before Stranger Things season 5, hitting major character arcs, big deaths, and how the Upside Down threat has evolved. Season 4's Vecna twist, Max's near death, and Eddie's "Master of Puppets" distraction set up a darker, more apocalyptic final season, with Hawkins literally merging with the Upside Down. Stranger Things is praised for doing nostalgia the right way, feeling familiar without just copying older stories, similar to the best of Stephen King adaptations. Memorable Quotes "If this looks at all good, I know I'll be seeing it." – Frank on the new live action Ninja Turtles movie. "Just stop doing these retellings of the same story and continue to make us fresh content that just happens to be related to the things we already like." – Jonathan on constant reboots. "Northern mermaid folk with tridents on their banners? Come on, man, how are we not doing a show about them?" – Frank on the Manderlys. "That 'Running Up That Hill' scene basically broke the internet." – Jonathan on Stranger Things season 4. "It is not the same song, but it sounds familiar. That is what good nostalgia should feel like." – Frank on Stranger Things and Goonies-style stories.

Bianca breaks down the hacks, mindset shifts, and lived experiences that help her cross borders without breaking the bank.Episode highlights:The best travel experiences usually cost $0, seriously How to rack up reward points WITHOUT credit cards (WTF?!)Why the "look up flights on Tuesdays" is a total mythAddressing the elephant in the room of digital nomad life -- is it bad for the countries we're traveling to?The travel hacks you've never heard of (I've traveled for 5 years and never heard of some of the tips Bianca shares)If you've ever dreamed of living abroad, fleeing the USA, or simply taking a trip without taking out a loan, this episode is for you. Bianca shows you how accessible global travel really is, and why the world is way more affordable, expansive, and welcoming than you've been led to believe.
