Learn how to fix your pain with our “Centralization Process” here! https://rebrand.ly/ytpainfreeSubmit an application to work with us 1:1 and learn how to fix your low back! www.therehabfix.com/low-back-programTo view hundreds of free low back videos please follow us on instagram at @rehabfix www.instagram.com/rehabfixStop stretching your hip flexors for low back pain without understanding the real problem. Tight hip flexors are not always short hip flexors. In many cases, they feel tight because they are weak, unstable, or lacking control.In this video, you'll learn why constantly stretching your hip flexors may not fix your lower back pain and can sometimes make your hips feel even more unstable.Instead, I'll show you three specific hip flexor strengthening exercises designed to build strength, control, mobility, and stability through your hips, pelvis, core, and low back.If your low back pain gets worse with sitting, standing, walking, or lifting, your hip flexors may need strength instead of more stretching.
Det er fredag, og jentene er på plass for å oppsummere en mildt sagt begivenhetsrik uke. Rakel har vært i København, hvor hun fikk kjenne flyskrekken på kroppen. I tillegg har hun hatt besøk av Eccentric-jentene på hybelen som fikk bevitne et kaos med brunkrem på veggene og klær i kjøleskap og kjøkkenskuffer. Samtalen dreier også inn på frieri og forlovelse, der Rakel og Helle viser seg å ha ganske ulike meninger om hva som er en akseptabel forlovelsesring. Hosted on Acast.

Eccentric Exercise: Better Results with Less Effort. Leyla Muedin, a registered dietitian nutritionist, discusses eccentric exercise and research suggesting it may deliver better results than strenuous workouts that cause muscle damage and delayed onset muscle soreness (DOMS). She explains contraction types—isometric, concentric, and eccentric—highlighting that eccentric contractions involve muscle lengthening during the lowering phase (e.g., lowering a dumbbell, walking downstairs) and can provide greater mechanical loading with lower perceived effort, less fatigue, and broad accessibility across ages and health conditions, though requiring more focus and control. She cites studies including stair-descending in elderly obese women improving cardiovascular function, insulin sensitivity, cholesterol, and strength, and a five-minute home routine (chair squats, wall pushups, chair reclines, heel drops) improving strength, flexibility, mental health, and encouraging continued exercise. She notes athletic benefits and the need for further research.
If you're a fan of the Disney+ TV series, "The Mandalorian," then you'll probably find enough to like in the big screen edition, "Star Wars: The Mandalorian and Grogu." The story plays like a few TV episodes folded into one and ballooned onto the big screen. That's because the movie version was apparently an afterthought. Still, there's plenty of action, visual razzle dazzle and cute aliens to spare in “The Mandalorian and Grogu,” but if you're looking for involving human drama, that's in a galaxy far, far away. Eccentric filmmaker Boots Riley has so many creative ideas that his latest film "I Love Boosters" can barely hold them all. That's both a good thing and a bad one. Keke Palmer and Demi Moore lead a terrific cast in a wacky, surreal and profane comic sci-fi social critique about a gang of shoplifters who confront an unethical billionaire fashion designer. The movie's design elements are fantastic, but the plot elements and themes are way too scattershot. Still, the game cast gives "I Love Boosters" a boost. You don't have to be a fan of the Amazon Prime "Jack Ryan" series to enjoy the new movie "Tom Clancy's Jack Ryan: Ghost War." In fact, you don't really need to know anything about the show or the novels. John Krasinzki, who also produced and co-wrote the screenplay, is back as Ryan, a now former CIA agent. who gets pulled into a caper involving a rogue operative group in London that threatens to undermine both the US and British spy operations. “Jack Ryan: Ghost War” has the action elements genre fans love and manages to create a bit of tension despite the overly familiar plot elements.

Craig Unger explores the transformation of the 1980 Reagan campaign following the hiring of Bill Casey as campaign manager. Casey, a legendary WWII spy from the OSS, is described as a brilliant but eccentric figure who utilized his extensive international contacts to build a secret intelligence network while the campaign was still underway. This network involved meetings with Israeli agents and South African arms dealers to discuss the ongoing Iranian revolution. Unger details how the Reagan camp feared an "October Surprise"—a pre-election hostage release that would secure Carter's victory—leading Casey to take covert preventative measures. Interestingly, Ronald Reagan himself seemed disconnected from the details of Casey's operations, often merely nodding and smiling because he could not understand Casey's muddled speech. This dynamic allowed Casey to operate with significant autonomy, setting the stage for clandestine maneuvers that Unger argues ultimately subverted the American democratic process. (2/8)1903

Zebedy Colt is one of least likely characters we expected to feature in a podcast interview when The Rialto Report first began. For a start, Zebedy passed away in 2004 at the age of 74, after a wildly varied and peripatetic acting career that had started with small parts as a child actor in Hollywood in the 1930s and continued on to regional theater and summer stock across the country, including several Broadway productions. Along the way, he also had a parallel music career, recording an LP with the London Philharmonic Orchestra entitled, ‘I’ll Sing For You,' which consisted of torch standards about men, originally intended to be sung by women but sung by Zebedy from a gay perspective. And then, in 1974, he lost his job when the theater he was working for folded due to financial problems, so he answered an ad in a New York newspaper that had been placed by Leonard Kirtman, perhaps the most prolific producer of low budget hardcore adult films in New York. Far from being put off by the nature of the films that Leonard was making, Zebedy did the unexpected: he entered an industry that was known for being sleazy and taboo, and made it a lot more transgressive. Over the following decade, he moved effortlessly between well-regarded mainstream theatrical productions and making his own unique brand of violent and twisted pornographic films, such as Sex Wish (1975) (where he plays a crazed serial killer terrorizing the city), The Devil Inside Her (1977) (in which a woman sells her soul to the devil to get to the man she loves), and Unwilling Lovers (1977) (in which Zebedy is a killer with the mind of a child who lives in the backwoods with his domineering mother and a penchant for playing with corpses) to name but a few. All very weird, and all very Zebedy. So who was this man who brought such a bizarre vision to the New York sex film scene? As part of the research for the oral history of The Freaky Gang, Leonard Kirtman's gang of misfits who made films for his studio in the mid 1970s, we discovered a collection of audio interviews with Zebedy that give us the chance to listen to man himself instead of one of the crazy characters that he played on film. Sadly, many of these conversations have such poor sound quality that they're unfit to be presented as a podcast, but due to their rarity, we wanted to present one here. It’s a conversation with Barbara Nitke, who worked as a still photographer on adult films sets. Unlike other Rialto Report podcasts, this isn't a career retrospective – instead it's a free-ranging, casual conversation that took place in a bar in 1986. It finds Zebedy in a world-weary state of mind. He's at a crossroads, the mainstream acting roles are drying up, his music career hadn't taken off, and the adult film business had recently turned to video thus taking away the opportunity to make more of his strange psychodramas on 16mm. This is Zebedy Colt. Shooting the Breeze. This podcast is 32 minutes long. Many thanks to Barbara Nitke for sharing the interview with us. You can find more details about her work at Barbara's website and hear our podcast interview with her here. Copies of her book, ‘American Ecstasy', can be purchased here. —————————————————————————————————————————- Zebedy Colt * The post Zebedy Colt – Shooting the Breeze with the Eccentric Thespian of XXX: Podcast 161 appeared first on The Rialto Report.

It comes from doing the right work with precision and intent.Episode HighlightsIn this episode, Adam Lane sits down with Coach Ryan Paul, founder of New Athlete Incorporated, to break down what it really takes to develop athletes who can perform at a high level without being run into the ground. Ryan explains his approach to intensity and specificity, why many athletes are competing year-round without true recovery, and how tools like isometrics, grip strength work, and performance data can build stronger, more resilient athletes without adding unnecessary volume.Episode OutlineThe problem with year-round competition and limited off-seasonsWhy many athletes are overworked but under-stimulated in the right areasThe role of intensity and specificity in athletic developmentMicro-dosing training to maintain performance during heavy competition schedulesUsing heavy, aggressive stimuli in short sets to drive adaptationIsometrics as a tool for strength, resilience, and neurological efficiencyManaging readiness and avoiding overtrainingThe importance of grip strength in overall athletic performanceApplying data and tracking tools to guide programming decisionsBuilding well-rounded, durable athletes without unnecessary volumeEpisode Chapters00:00 Intro01:23 Ryan's background & origins of New Athlete02:16 From truck bed Vertimax to multi-site facility02:51 Who New Athlete trains: middle school to NFL draft04:33 Year-round volleyball & “no off-season” reality07:19 Parents, clubs & the performance gap10:33 Microdosing training vs constant games17:02 Intensity over volume: real in-season gains21:38 Off-season training: speed, data & bar speed28:41 Isometrics for youth & overcoming ISOs35:50 Long ISOs, conditioning without gassers43:54 Eccentric braking, force, and injury risk56:28 Where to find Coach Ryan & closing remarksAction TakenSchedule and confirm part two podcast episode with the guestRun a pilot ISO-focused training program with a small athlete groupTrack performance metrics and adjust programming based on dataConclusionHigh-level performance is not built on volume alone. It comes from precise, intentional training that matches the real demands athletes face throughout the year. By focusing on intensity, smart dosing, and clear performance data, coaches can support athletes who stay powerful, prepared, and durable even in the middle of heavy competition schedules.CTAListen to the episode and follow Oak Performance Radio for more conversations on athlete development and performance.Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/oakperformancelabInstagram: @oakperformanceThank you for listening and being part of Oak Performance Radio.

Episode 200 marks a major milestone for us, and we celebrate it with someone who played a foundational role in our journey. Professor Ken Nosaka joins us to reflect on how eccentric training research shaped modern training practice and brought our paths together.We revisit the early ECU years, then dive deep into what Ken's research has taught us about muscle soreness, muscle damage, the repeated bout effect, and how adaptation really works. This episode blends history, science, and real world coaching insights that still shape how we train today.
Improve your rowing ratio while lifting in the gym. Timestamps 00:45 Rowing can be improved by strength training Lifting heavy has lots of benefits - today we'll talk about ratio. The contrast between the power phase and recovery phase. How to use this concept of ratio in strength training. 02:00 Improve range of movement As we age we find our muscles and tendons don't have the same range and so our stride gets shorter. Strength training can help improve or maintain RoM. Weight lifting works in two planes - when you lift the weight and when you return it to the start point. Concentric muscle movements are shortening the muscle (as you lift). Eccentric muscle movements are lengthening the muscle (as you return the weight to the start). Eccentric muscle work can help improve your range of movement. Working on this part of the strength lift can use the rowing ratio as part of the movement. 03:45 Ratio in strength training The braking effect that you use as you control the weight in the eccentric lengthening muscle phase as you lower the weight down can enable you to have greater force production. When lifting heavy for few repetitions or using small muscles e.g. doing chin-ups against your body weight you may find the difference between the last successful lift and when you fail is large. Do your first chin up One way to improve your strength and do your first chin up is to start at the top of the lift with your chin over the bar (you may need a chair to step or jump up there). Then slowly lower yourself by straightening your arms doing just the eccentric part of the lift. You will gain strength more quickly by doing this slowly muscle lengthening under load. When you've done this a few times, try doing one chin up - you probably can lift yourself up. Use approximately a 3:1 ratio in your lifting. The more ratio you can manage the more you will be working the braking effect on the eccentric lift. 06:45 Improve range of movement Consider a difficult lift like a squat using an olympic bar. Getting a deeper squat - to 90 degrees or to a deep squat position is challenging. 08:00 6 week challenge to improve your ROM. 3x per week for 6 weeks. Start each lift with an ultra-light load. This helps refamiliarise your muscles with the movement. Then add weight so that you keep good form. Try to do 3-5 sets of each lift each time you go to the gym. Do 6 sessions on power - increase the load you can lift. Position a bench behind you so you squat down to just touching your bum on the bench. Goal is 90 degrees. For a deep squat choose a lower block to sit down to. Start with 5-8 reps on power - increase load. Do 6 sessions on range of movement - lower the bench. You may need to reduce the load in order to do this. Have someone spotting for you and checking your movements. Do 6 sessions on speed - lower for 3 and push up fast for 1. So build your ratio into these sessions. 11:30 Take your ratio training from the gym back into the boat. Can you push the oar faster through the water so that you can take longer on the slide recovery? You may be able to increase your ratio thanks to your work in the gym.

Londinium Winter 92AD. Reflecting on military history, the speakers contrast the strategic genius of Hannibal and the eccentric audacity of WWII commando Lord Lovat with the current state of American forces. Germanicus asserts that the "marauder" spirit of figures like Andrew Jackson or the Normans has vanished from the U.S. military, which he describes as a "submissive subculture" focused on maintaining privilege rather than victory. He concludes that the American system is too ossified for reform, arguing that the nation is in a period of rupture that requires a "new empire" to survive.1910 CARTHAGE THEATER EXCAVATED
Today's guest is Martin Bingisser. Martin is the founder of HMMR Media, one of the most trusted independent voices in throws and track & field education. A former competitive hammer thrower, Martin blends firsthand experience with deep historical and technical insight to analyze training methods, athlete development, and coaching culture. Through articles, videos, and interviews, his work bridges elite practice and practical coaching, earning him respect from coaches and performance professionals around the world. In a world of rapid-information delivery and short attention spans, the wisdom of master coaches is becoming increasingly rare. Martin has spent substantial time with two legends in the coaching world, Anatoliy Bondarchuk and Vern Gambetta. Spending time discussing the work of the past, and wisdom through the present is a critical practice in forming an effective coaching viewpoint. On today's episode I chat with Martin in a wide-ranging conversation in coaching lessons on efficiency, adaptability, and performing under pressure (two throws, no warmups, huge crowds). We transition into Bondarchuk's training philosophy: exercise classification, consistency, “strength” as sport-specific force production, and why weight-room PRs can distract from performance. The episode closes with motor-learning insights on rhythm, holistic cues, and how Vern Gambetta's “general” work complements specificity.

(https://www.just-fly-sports.com/podcast-home/) Timestamps 0:00 – Martin's background and training lens 7:05 – Why eccentric strength matters 15:40 – Isometric intent and force expression 24:30 – Tendons, stiffness, and elastic qualities 33:50 – Managing fatigue in strength training 42:15 – Applying eccentric and isometric work 51:20 – Athlete readiness and daily adjustment 1:00:10 – Long term development and durability Actionable Takeaways 7:05 – Eccentric strength underpins many performance qualities Martin explains that eccentric capacity sets the foundation for braking, deceleration, and re acceleration. Stronger eccentric abilities allow athletes to tolerate higher forces with less breakdown. Use controlled eccentric work to improve robustness without chasing constant intensity. 15:40 – Isometrics depend on intent, not just position Holding a position is not enough to drive adaptation. Martin emphasizes producing force into the immovable position to create meaningful stimulus. Cue effort and intent during isometrics instead of passively holding time. 24:30 – Tendon stiffness supports speed and efficiency Tendons transmit force, they do not just store it. Training should respect gradual loading to avoid disrupting tendon health. Elastic qualities improve when stiffness and timing are trained together. 33:50 – Fatigue management shapes training quality Not all fatigue is productive. Martin highlights watching bar speed, coordination, and effort quality to guide decisions. End sets when movement quality degrades rather than chasing prescribed numbers. 42:15 – Match training tools to the desired adaptation Eccentrics, isometrics, and dynamics all serve different purposes. Martin stresses selecting methods based on the adaptation you want, not trends. Blend methods thoughtfully instead of stacking stressors blindly. 51:20 – Daily readiness should influence loading Athletes do not arrive the same every day. Use simple readiness cues like bar speed and coordination to adjust training. Flexibility in programming helps preserve long term progress. 1:00:10 – Durability is built over time, not rushed Long term development requires patience and consistency. Martin reinforces gradual progression to protect connective tissue. not short term peaks. Quotes from Martin Bingisser “Eccentric strength is what allows athletes to absorb and redirect force safely.” “An isometric only works if there is intent behind it.” “Tendons are not passive structures, they are active contributors to performance.” “Fatigue is not the enemy, but unmanaged fatigue is.” “You have to choose training tools based on what you want to adapt.” “Readiness is not about feelings, it is about what you observe.” “Durability comes from respecting time and progression.” About Martin Bingisser Martin Bingisser is the founder of HMMR Media, one of the most respected independent platforms covering throws, strength training, and track & field performance. A former competitive hammer thrower, Martin combines firsthand athletic experience with a sharp analytical eye to break down training theory, competition trends, and athlete development across all levels of the sport. Through HMMR Media, he produces in-depth articles, interviews, videos, and educational resources that bridge the gap between elite coaching practice and accessible learning.

Ross Wesley LeBaron played the role of eccentric prophet. The second oldest son of patriarch Alma Dayer LeBaron Sr., carved a distinct path in Utah. Ross founded the Church of the Firstborn. His teachings presented a unique fundamentalist cosmology focused on distributing sacred authority rather than concentrating it, emphasizing that “the honor is in the work, not the title.” https://youtu.be/fHYDKiaoZ5o Don't miss our other conversations with Jacob: https://gospeltangents.com/people/jacob-vidrine Copyright © 2025 Gospel Tangents All Rights Reserved Except for book reviews, no content may be reproduced without written permission Authority Above the Church: Dissemination vs. Concentration Ross LeBaron’s theology centered on the concept of a higher order of priesthood existing “above the [LDS] Church” structure. This authority, which he called the Patriarchal Priesthood, originated with the keys restored by Moses, Elias, and Elijah in the Kirtland Temple (D&C 110). This higher priesthood manifested in the Nauvoo period as the authority to make men “kings and priests” (and women “queens and priestesses”), often referred to as the fullness of the priesthood. Ross taught that this authority should be widely distributed among worthy men, acting as a check and balance against unrighteous leadership. He contrasted this view sharply with the prevailing fundamentalist models (like the Woolley line, which later split into FLDS and AUB) that focused on concentrating supreme authority either in a single presiding figure (the “one man rule”) or a small “Council of Seven”. Ross felt the stability of the priesthood lay in this dissemination of authority, allowing many men to hold the highest keys for their own families. Ross LeBaron’s Priesthood Claim Ross’s authority traced back to his grandfather, Benjamin F. Johnson, a close confidant of Joseph Smith and the last living original member of the Council of Fifty. Johnson claimed that Joseph Smith had authorized him to teach the principles of plural marriage, endowments, garments, and the Second Anointing “when I’m led to do so”. This unique claim bypassed Ross’s father (Benjamin Franklin LeBaron) and passed to his grandfather, Alma Dayer LeBaron Sr. (“Dayer”.) Ross received a patriarchal blessing and the “keys, rights, and authority of the patriarchal order of priesthood” from his father, Dayer, in 1950. Although Dayer died without naming a clear successor, leaving behind a succession crisis, Ross eventually received a revelation confirming that the patriarchal priesthood he held was the fullness of the Melchizedek Priesthood. He subsequently concluded that, as Joseph Smith’s birthright, he was the “one anointed and appointed” referenced in D&C 132:73. Eccentric Prophet's Ministry & the Second Anointing Ross’s ministry in Utah often relied on eccentric methods to gain public notice. He spent over 20 years on radio shows (like KSXX) attempting to be controversial or “silly” (clowning around) to draw attention before sharing his message, mirroring unusual methods sometimes used by Old Testament prophets. A crucial element of Ross’s authority was the belief that the patriarchal keys authorized him to perform temple ordinances, including the Second Anointing. Reviving the Second Anointing: Ross and his early follower, Robert Eaby (a former scribe for the AUB Council and participant in Musser’s School of the Prophets), became pioneers in researching and restoring the Second Anointing outside of the LDS Church. Robert Eaby, who had learned about the ordinance through connections to early prayer circles, was able to assist in administering the endowments and then the Second Anointing, making them the first fundamentalists known to perform the ordinance (circa 1967/1968). Historical Context: This revival occurred during a period when the ordinance was largely discontinued within the mainstream LDS Church, having been generally halted by Heber J. Grant in the late 1920s and not widely performed again until it was revived by Spencer W. Kimball in the 1970s. Ross also stressed individual accountability and agency. When a follower sought revelatory guidance from him regarding a major life decision, Ross challenged him: “Why are you afraid of taking responsibility for yourself? Don’t your knees work? Go to God yourself and get revelation for yourself.” This focus on the individual patriarch holding authority for their own family underscored Ross’s belief that while leaders were fallible, the highest order of priesthood could and should be accessed by all worthy individuals.

Inner thigh fat loss isn't just about exercise. Your inner thigh workout should prioritize rest and recovery. Discover the best inner thigh exercises, along with the necessary diet and lifestyle changes, for achieving smooth, toned, and healthy legs. 0:00 Introduction: Inner thigh toning and fat loss1:06 Inner thigh fat loss4:45 How to tone inner thighs7:16 What causes inner thigh fat?7:58 The best inner thigh workout12:29 More inner thigh fat loss tips Subcutaneous fat is the fat stored just under the skin. Visceral fat surrounds the organs. This type of fat is unhealthy and inflammatory, often related to insulin resistance. Liver fat can be eliminated in a matter of days or weeks. Fat on the inner thighs is the most difficult type of fat to get rid of. This fat is not just superficial; it's woven inside the muscle fibers, similar to the marbling in Wagyu beef. Muscle deteriorates and is replaced by fat and scar tissue. Stem cells that make muscle cells are lost, resulting in fewer contractions, less ATP, and more insulin resistance in the muscle.This abnormal accumulation of fat in the muscle is called myosteatosis, or intramuscular fat. This fat must be burned locally! As you begin to address this problem, you may not initially lose weight or notice a visible change, because the change occurs at the cellular level. For inner thigh fat loss, focus on repairing damaged muscle cells, rather than simply losing weight. Strength and decreased appetite will signify that you are improving. The root causes of intramuscular fat are the following:•Inactivity/sedentary life •Insulin resistance •Inflammation •Aging For the most inner thigh fat loss, try the following:1. Eccentric exercises 2. Walking 3. Sprinting/HIIT4. Two meals per day/low-carb diet 5. Increase key nutrients: magnesium, vitamin D, and omega-36. Get plenty of sleep7. Periodic prolonged fasting 8.

Pre-WWII US exercises, influenced by Patton and his peers, successfully showcased armored warfare. Patton was eccentric, boring audiences with detailed lectures on Roman generals and claiming to be the reincarnation of Napoleon, which disconnected him from his troops. Montgomery, leading the Third Division, trained his men endlessly and formed a cohesive team before the Dunkirk evacuation, seeing the retreat as a challenge to rebuild. Rommel was given command of the 7th Panzer Division in 1940 and, due to his aggressive success, became known as the commander of the "phantom division," celebrated by Nazi propaganda.
Merriam-Webster's Word of the Day for November 18, 2025 is: eccentric ik-SEN-trik adjective Eccentric usually describes people and things that deviate from conventional or accepted usage or behavior, especially in odd or whimsical ways. It is also used technically to mean "deviating from a circular path" and "located elsewhere than at the geometric center." // He's an endearingly eccentric scientist whose methods are quite inventive. // The dwarf planet Pluto has an eccentric orbit. See the entry > Examples: "The film [Annie Hall] is considered one of the great romantic comedies of all time, with [Diane] Keaton's eccentric, self-deprecating Annie at its heart." — Eva Roytburg, Fortune, 11 Oct. 2025 Did you know? Eccentric was originally a technical term at home in the fields of geometry and astronomy. It comes from the Medieval Latin adjective ecentricus, meaning "not having the earth at its center," and ultimately has its root in a Greek noun, kéntron, whose various meanings include "stationary point of a pair of compasses" and "midpoint of a circle or sphere." But its figurative use is long-established too: as far back as the 17th century the word has been used to describe people and things that deviate from what is conventional, usual, or accepted.

The music business from the late '60s through the '90s was an exciting time that mirrored the music and the musicians making it. It was also a time of new and creative ideas on how to market this groundbreaking cultural phenomenon. Eccentric characters were everywhere, and often the managers, promoters, disc jockeys, and record company staff were just as big a show as the performers themselves. And nobody was bigger and better in promoting rock records than Rap. Paul "Rap" Rappaport enjoyed a storied (and very appropriate) 33 1/3 year career in rock promotion at Columbia Records, where he was instrumental in the careers of an amazing roster of legends, including Bob Dylan, Bruce Springsteen, Pink Floyd, The Rolling Stones, Elvis Costello, Billy Joel, Blue Oyster Cult, Judas Priest, Alice In Chains, and many, many more. Gliders Over Hollywood: Airships, Airplay and the Art of Rock Promotion is Rap's dynamic, entertaining memoir captures the magic of these times and the people who made it happen, revealing the never-before-heard secrets of the promotion and marketing that turned the music industry on its head. From creating the Pink Floyd airship to sword-fighting with Bruce Dickinson of Iron Maiden and receiving a guitar lesson from Keith Richards, it's a book packed full of extraordinary adventures with some of the biggest names in rock. This week, Rap joins us as our Third Lad to recount the wild tales of his Top 5 Album Rollouts. These are stories you have to hear (or read) to believe! Learn more about your ad choices.
