    FULL VERSION. Filmmaker Doug Roos (BAKEMONO) joins Adam and Joe in the ArieScope studio to discuss his international career journey and shooting his latest film in Japan. From seeing ALIENS at age 6 and falling in love with genre cinema… to his fascination with making his own monsters and starting out with nothing but clear plastic bags and a flashlight… to making his first short film at 12 years old and why 1993's CARNOSAUR was such an inspiration to him… to making films in China before relocating to Japan where he has been living for the last 7 years… to being told “it's too expensive to shoot a movie in Japan” and accepting the statement as a challenge… to learning about the dark side of Tokyo from actor friends and conceiving the idea for BAKEMONO… to how he made the incredible creature effects himself on an extremely limited budget and why he chose to tell the story of BAKEMONO in a “non-linear” structure… to why he waited to crowd fund the film until he already had footage to show the world… to the hurdles of promoting his film through his own efforts and positive word of mouth alone, Doug is an inspiration for anyone out there who is tired of waiting for permission and ready to make their own movie happen.

    On today's show, we have a solo run touching on a subject, very dear to my heart, the concept of ‘I will be happy when'   How we all fall into the trap of putting off our enjoyment of life for for some perceived moment off in the future, when the stars will align everything will come together, and I will be happy ever after as a result of achieving X Y or Z.   You can fill in the blanks that may be winning a major tournament. It may be winning the club championship or breaking 100 for the first time never mind creates the stories of perceived happiness off in the future, and it can be so destructive to her actual enjoyment of the game right now. Not only destructive. It actually creates a lot of tension in the system in extreme cases real fear and anxiety. Even the great Rory McIlroy seems to have fallen into the trap of this after winning the US Masters, and seemingly afterwards falling into some kind of malaise and unhappiness.   He is human like the rest of us within this, but I feel there is a way out of this by really understanding the value of seen through the illusion and then falling in love with the idea of being on the path to mastery. Karl shares some key insights. How are you can embrace this philosophy to liberate your own game, and get so much closer to your true potential   Enjoy this solo offering and don't forget to give us a review wherever you get your Podcasts, why not subscribe or follow it's FREE   To get on board with the Mind Caddie and join us on the journey go to https://www.mindcaddie.golf/ OFFICIAL BRAND AMBASSADOR : Fenix Apparel and Accessories Co.

    Lessons from the Summer Solstice 2025 Theme: Closing karmic cycles It's time to end karmic cycles. You might notice obvious endings where past patterns are have been coming to a close. Sometimes these endings are a long time coming and other times it's sudden. But these endings are low key… a RELIEF.  Karmic circles represent lessons to be learned. The same things keep showing up in different fonts until you finally choose YOURSELF with love and compassion. Understand that others can only meet you as deeply as they can meet themselves. Instead of falling in love with somebody else's potential, choose to heal this timeline by choosing differently (even if challenging) for yourself. You'll be presented with many new doors and you'll have to build your own courage to believe that you worthy enough to walk through them. If you're generally sensing a narrative about your worthiness, especially questioning if YOU are a vibrational match for what you seek and desire, this solstice portal will help you break the cords and reveal even clearly the strings that were already at play.

    What does it really look like to prioritize your health as a full-time nurse, first-time mom, and wife — while battling postpartum fatigue and cultural food guilt? In this episode of The Breakthrough Series, Dustin sits down with Sharlene, a nurse of nearly 10 years, who reclaimed her energy, dropped 10+ pounds in 12 weeks, and reignited her confidence by committing to the Metabolic Burn System.

    Today, we're absolutely thrilled to have on John Crowley a director, screenwriter and filmmaker whose work consistently delves into the intricate tapestry of human experience with remarkable sensitivity and depth. Dom Lenoir sits down for a natter with John to unpack the creative journey behind this poignant film and explore the themes that drive his artistic vision. John Crowley has a masterful touch for storytelling as he burst onto the scene with his critically acclaimed feature debut, "Intermission" (2003), followed by the powerful and poignant "Boy A" (2007). He captivated audiences and critics alike with the deeply moving "Brooklyn" (2015), which earned him an Academy Award nomination for Best Adapted Screenplay. He then took on the complex literary adaptation of "The Goldfinch" (2019), and his television work includes episodes of the acclaimed series "True Detective" and "Black Mirror." His latest film, "We Live in Time," promises to be another compelling addition to his already impressive filmography. This romantic drama, written by Nick Payne, explores the relationship of a couple, Tobias Durand, played by the incredible Andrew Garfield, and Almut Brühl, portrayed by the brilliant Florence Pugh, over the course of a decade. The film uniquely employs a nonlinear narrative, weaving through snapshots of their lives together – falling in love, building a home, and becoming a family – while confronting a difficult truth that challenges their very foundation.

    In this episode of Building the Base, Hondo Geurts and Lauren Bedula reconnect with Cameron McCord, Co-Founder and CEO of Nominal, two years after his first appearance on the show (linked here). Drawing from his unique journey from submarine officer (484 days underwater) to defense tech entrepreneur, McCord discusses building software to accelerate testing and validation of mission-critical systems. He shares insights from his time at Anduril, Applied Intuition, and Saildrone, and how these experiences shaped Nominal's approach to modernizing test and evaluation processes. The episode concludes with exciting news that Nominal recently announced a $75 million Series B led by Sequoia Capital and co-led by Lightspeed Venture Partners.Five key takeaways from today's episode:Entrepreneurial success, according to McCord, requires falling in love with the process itself rather than just the initial idea, as markets, technology, and competition will force constant adaptation and iteration throughout the journey.Testing and validation software in defense hasn't been meaningfully innovated in decades, McCord explains, creating massive opportunities to modernize from "2002 to 2019" standards using basic automation and data practices before advancing to AI capabilities.The most valuable customer conversations, McCord notes, evolve from incremental efficiency gains at the engineer level to strategic business impact discussions about reducing 24-month test campaigns to 18-20 months for major defense programs.Rather than leading with confidence, McCord advises asking genuine questions to allow customers to reveal what's truly valuable to them, while learning when to say "not right now" instead of forcing poor fits often leads to higher revisit rates.Cross-functional experience across military service, government, startups, and venture capital has provided McCord with invaluable perspective for navigating complex stakeholder environments and understanding what success looks like from multiple viewpoints.

    In this episode, Camila returns to Grief Out Loud six years after her first appearance to share how grief continues to evolve. What began with the sudden loss of her mother at age 21 has now expanded to include the ongoing grief of caregiving for her father, who is living with dementia and Alzheimer's disease.  Camila discusses the unique challenges of long-distance caregiving, the differences between sudden loss and gradual decline, and how these two types of grief intersect in her life. She also discusses navigating major life milestones—including getting married during the pandemic—without her mother's presence.  We Discuss: The difference between sudden loss and the "slow grief" of watching a parent decline  How grief has shifted in the 15+ years since her mother's unexpected death Losing her father as the co-archivist of her mother's life and their family history Managing long-distance caregiving The failures of the elder care system in the U.S. The role of chosen family and support Wedding planning and the question of how to honor her mother's memory  The complexity of being a queer person in traditionally heteronormative grief support spaces  Feeling like she no longer has parents, even though her father is still alive  The therapeutic value of pets  Finding moments of connection and joy with her father despite his condition  Using poetry as a processing tool for grief  About the Guest:  Camila is a poet who has published three books of poetry:  The Progression of Grief (about losing her mother)  New Waters (about falling in love and healthy relationships)  The Longevity of Grief (about caring for her father and how different types of grief intersect) This episode is the third in our 2025 three-part series highlighting the voices of communities who have historically been underrepresented in the grief world. The series is part of an ongoing collaboration between Dougy Center and The New York Life Foundation. We are deeply grateful for New York Life Foundation's tireless support and advocacy for children and teens who are grieving.

    Send us a textThis is Paul and this week on The Joy of Cruising Podcast I am delighted to welcome Gian and Angie, two cruisers living out two amazing stories on a cruise ship. That's right, two amazing stories. The first is living on a cruise ship, Villa Vie Odyssey for the next three years, circumnavigating the globe and in the process visiting 147 countries across all seven continents—425 port stops in all. Anyone who is a regular listener of The Joy of Cruising Podcast knows I wouldn't hesitate to host Gian & Angie on the show at some point during their dream voyage. There's a second amazing story Gian & Angie are a part of—it became world news—and it is how they came to my attention. For background, Villa Vie Odyssey was originally due to sail from Belfast, Ireland in May 2024. Two passengers, who did not know each other, Angela Harsanyi from Colorado, and Gian Perroni, from Canada were awaiting sail away day when shortly before, an urgent need for some major repairs were uncovered, that would take several months. Some of the passengers chose discounted vacations around Europe; others remained in Belfast and worked remotely—including both Gian and Angie, who still had not met. Some time during the ensuing months Gian and Angie found each other; then they found love. Villa Vie Odyssey finally sailed in September 2024. When the ship stopped at Costa Rica, a couple of dozen friends and family members joined the several hundred passengers aboard the Villa Vie Odyssey for Gian and Angie wedding. Gian Perroni is from Vancouver, Canada, and prior to embarking on the Odyssey spent the previous 6 years living in Costa Rica.  He is still working full time in the online marketing space and has a dedicated office with a great view onboard the ship.  Gian has 2 adult children from a previous marriage, both of whom were in the wedding party. Angie Harsanyi, now Perroni, is from Colorado, and was a successful salon owner for more than three decades.  She's an avid outdoors person that loves to spend winters snow-biking, and summers exploring nature, including living for a time in both Yellowstone and Alaska. Neither Gian or Angie were cruisers in the past, and neither joined the Odyssey expecting to find love, but rather simply looking for an exciting change in their lives.  As it turned out, the delayed launch of the ship gave them the time to explore Belfast together and become great friends before they became a couple. Their back-to-back weddings onboard couldn't have been more perfect!Support the showSupport thejoyofcruisingpodcast https://www.buzzsprout.com/2113608/supporters/newSupport Me https://www.buymeacoffee.com/drpaulthContact Me https://www.thejoyofcruising.net/contact-me.htmlBook Cruises http://www.thejoyofvacation.com/US Orders (coupon code joyofcruisingpodcast)The Joy of Cruising https://bit.ly/TheJoyOfCruisingCruising Interrupted https://bit.ly/CruisingInterruptedThe Joy of Cruising Again https://bit.ly/TheJoyOfCruisingAgainIntl Orders via Amazon

    Today is my 28th birthday! There have been so many times in my early/mid twenties where I have struggled with feeling like I am behind in life, that I should have things figured out, I missed my chance to do something, or that it's too late for me to pivot. But the older I get the more I realize that there is no age restriction on starting a new chapter. If you also find yourself feeling like you're behind, you missed your chance, or it's too late that feeling is an indication that there is something that you are wanting to do or a change you feel you need to make. Maybe it's quitting your job, falling in love, starting over in a new place, launching a business; whatever it is you feel you've missed the boat on, the time is now. It's important to realize that you can begin whenever you want, but the key is to begin. Don't take the notion that you can start whenever you want as an excuse to kick the can down the road or procrastinate on life. Instead know that it's the permission you need to start today, the reassurance that if you fail you can always try again, and the wonder that keeps you young because you never stop growing, changing, and evolving.

    Dennis is joined via Zoom from Portugal by former U.K. boxing manager Kellie Maloney to discuss the new documentary about Kellie's life and transition Knockout Blonde: The Kellie Maloney Story. The film, which is now available on VOD, documents her previous life as successful boxing promoter Frank Maloney through her transition to Kellie in 2014 and its aftermath. Kellie talks about falling in love with boxing as a child, taking Lennox Lewis all the way to the Heavyweight Champion, how the physicality of boxing allowed her to vent the stress she was feeling inside and that time Frank the promoter experienced the petty, bullying side of Donald Trump. Kellie also talks about how in her dreams, she's always been female, the back-to-back tragic losses that happened in her life that led to her finally deciding to be true to herself and the decision to go on the Big Brother reality show just eight weeks after coming out publicly as trans. Other topics include: her most surprising supporters, the people close to her who dropped her like a brick, staring with envy at her ex-wife Tracy when she would get ready to go out, the difference between the British press and the American press, having a row with Leslie Jordan in the U.K. Big Brother house then later becoming friends, the full frontal moment in the documentary she tried to have cut, doing female breast exercises when he was alone in the gym then switching back to sparring exercises when someone walked in and the immense relief she felt after she transitioned when she was finally able to face the world as herself.

    Today I'm joined by fellow AU member, Zach Fagas. Zach and I actually went to grade school together. I was a year older. We have been connected online probably since Facebook was even a thing. It wasn't until a few years ago that we started interacting and having conversations. About a year ago I was actually on his podcast (also hosted here at AU), called the Zach & Pat Show. Zach is a realtor, podcaster, content creator, husband, father, and much more!Zach's Bio:I am 32 years old, born and raised right here in St. Louis, Missouri. I am a husband, father of two boys, full-time real estate agent, part-time real estate investor, and the host of a podcast called The Zach and Pat Show. I train, coach and compete in Brazilian jiu jitsu. I got into Crossfit a few years ago to make myself more competitive on the mats, but ended up falling in love with that as well. I made the switch to Real estate in late 2019 after spending more than a decade in the restaurant industry. My grandma who is still a licensed real estate agent today talked to me into getting my real estate license. I had great mentors and saw success pretty quickly with the real estate business. Since 2020 I have helped clients with close to 200 transactions totaling just under $50 million in sales volume. I have a small rental portfolio that I am actively trying to grow and have flipped 9 homes over the last few years. Connect with Zach:https://www.facebook.com/share/16LE7xsPcY/?mibextid=wwXIfr https://www.instagram.com/zach_fagas?igsh=NzZmdHQ4eXBjemt6&utm_source=qr https://www.instagram.com/thezachandpatshow?igsh=cnQ0OHNpOGkwaG5i&utm_source=qr https://youtube.com/@thezachandpatshow?si=DSfpJ1PdF6xOvjhm https://open.spotify.com/show/6HFGjgM2afuWdxD1QUAFy3?si=AbuESuzcS5S9lqk59c1Z2Q https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/the-zach-and-pat-show/id1722976295 Builders of Authority:FREE Facebook Group: https://www.facebook.com/groups/7685392924809322 BOA Mastermind: https://buildauthority.co/order-form-mastermind GoHighLevel Extended 30-day Free Trial w/TONS of Personal Branding Bonuses: http://gohighlevel.com/adammcchesney

    "I'm ready to bring back gatekeeping." The New Yorker staff writer discusses how to protect the underground, experimenting with drugs and her new book, Health and Safety. Can drugs help us find meaning in music and nightlife? This is a question that today's Exchange guest, New Yorker staff writer Emily Witt, asks in earnest in her new book Health and Safety: A Breakdown. Just released in hardcover in the UK and Europe, the memoir traces Witt's life in her early-to-mid 30s. A journalist living and working in Brooklyn, she began experimenting with psychedelics and club drugs after years of living what she describes as a conservative, straight-and-narrow, middle-class life. She became enamoured with the borough's underground raves, frequenting events like the festival Sustain-Release, the party Unter and sets at Bushwick haunt Bossa Nova Civic Club, all while falling in love with an aspiring DJ and producer she calls Andrew. As the book progresses, Witt documents the growing MAGA movement in America, gun rights rallies and mass shootings. As the country falls apart, she watches her romantic relationship fall apart, too. Drugs and Brooklyn nightlife, she writes, became both an escape and a way to rearrange a world that she starts to feel no longer makes sense. Witt shares critical opinions about the underground scene's capacity to be a utopia and place of belonging in an increasingly hostile world, arguing that there should be more gatekeeping in place to protect a scene that's threatened by capitalism and the mainstream. She also interrogates what she calls "woke identity politics" in Brooklyn, the lack of change that came from the Black Lives Matter movement, empty calls for political protest that dominated the early days of the pandemic and why, despite everything, she's chosen to stay in Brooklyn for good.

    Watch on Philo! - Philo.tv/DTHWe see Erica walking around the streets of Barcelona, speaking Spanish no problem. Cut to Anna who is the author of a book that is absolutely flopping. It's a book about falling in love in Barcelona. For some reason, though, the book is flopping everywhere except for Barcelona. Erica walks into her favorite book store and is talking to the owner, Nico. He tells her about this book that is selling like crazy and calls it the best book he's ever read. He tells her that he's trying to get the author to come to do a reading at the store. He calls her his literary crush. The problem here is that Erica actually translated the book and actually made some changes to the book without the author's permission and made the book better which is why it's selling so well in Barcelona. But per her contract with the publisher, she can't disclose to anyone that she translated the book, much less made any changes to it. But it doesn't take too long for Anna to figure out what Erica did once Nico starts talking about all of his favorite parts of the book and Anna has no idea what he's talking about. Nico asks Anna if she would be willing to write a short story and she agrees and then tries to convince Erica to help her with it so that she can impress Nico more because she's liking him. So Erica is in a tough spot here because she's liked Nico for a long time. So Anna begins to explore Barcelona, especially the food, to become inspired for her book. And obviously hanging out with Nico a ton. The problem is Anna just can't write anything - she just wants to write food reviews. They work together to write this short story and Erica sees that Anna is working on a food review website. They get into an argument about Nico and all is lost. But Anna shows up and does a reading of her book and she realize how beautiful the words Erica wrote are, so she finally tells that Erica really wrote the book. Nico realizes that she's the one he loves and they kiss.

    Raphi Fulcher's Musical Journey and Life as a Black Orthodox Jew   In this episode, Raphi Fulcher, also known as Hebrew, discusses his unique background and perspectives. Growing up as the youngest of six children to parents who converted to Judaism in the 1960s, Raphi shares his experiences moving across different states and eventually studying in Israel. Currently a project manager in digital marketing, Raphi is also a passionate musician. He talks about his musical influences, family background in music, and the transformative experience of performing live. Raphi sheds light on the challenges of dating within the Orthodox Jewish community as a Black man and the importance of finding a partner who understands and is prepared for those challenges. He also discusses the significance of Torah values and the importance of addressing 'otherness' in the Jewish community. Additionally, Raphi shares insights into his music career, Jewish music festivals, and his aspirations to create music that heals and educates.   00:00 Introduction and Background 00:36 Religious and Professional Journey 03:05 Musical Beginnings 04:20 First Performance and Health Struggles 07:24 Stage Name and Identity 09:00 Growing Up Orthodox 20:46 Dating Challenges 29:14 Navigating Relationships and Conversion 30:44 Qualities I'm Looking for in a Partner 32:24 Challenges in Finding the Right Match 35:10 The Birth of a Jewish Music Festival 37:14 Balancing Tradition and Modernity in Music 43:21 The Deeper Meaning of Cain and Hevel 48:45 Practical Advice for Facing Fear 51:39 Sharing My Music and Inspirations   https://www.hebromusic.com https://www.instagram.com/hebromusic/ https://www.youtube.com/@Hebromusic   www.JewishCoffeeHouse.com franciskakay@gmail.com   About Raphi: Raphi Fulcher is a man on a mission, a soldier, or a “soulja,” if you will, in the army of Hashem. So intent is he on spreading his message of acceptance and brotherhood through rap and hip hop music, that he performs under the name Hebro, a Fulcher-ism that declares his intent to use his artistic abilities to better the world as he serves in the ranks of God's military. The youngest of six children born to African-American parents who converted to Judaism 43 years ago under the guidance of Rabbi J.J. Hecht, the then-assistant to the Lubavitcher Rebbe, Fulcher hails from a family of gifted vocalists. The singer, songwriter, rapper and producer lived in Crown Heights until he was four and spent his formative years in North Carolina, St. Louis and Israel. It was during his time as a student at Queens College that Fulcher, whose full name is Raphael Ohr Chayim, discovered his gift for singing publicly. “I was on the board at Chabad of Queens College and we staged musical events. I found that I had a deep passion for live performance,” Fulcher told The Jewish Link. After spending a Lag B'omer at the Chevra Ahavas Yisroel synagogue, Fulcher found himself falling in love with Crown Heights and he spent the next five years there, enjoying the unique warmth of the community and honing his musical voice. Deeply enamored with rap, hip hop, reggae and R&B music, Fulcher decided that the time had come to bring those genres to Jewish audiences, albeit with all new lyrics. “Just the music and the rhythm are very powerful and could resonate with a lot of people if we had positive, uplifting content,” said Fulcher, who previously performed under the name Hebro. “I kept imagining how powerful it would be if I added a real element that would allow listeners to vibe out to the rhythm, with lyrics that have meaning and purpose. I don't think you can deny that it is Jewish music.” Having stretched his musical wings on stage with Matisyahu, Nissim Black, Moshav Band, Lipa Schmeltzer, Zusha and others, Fulcher decided three years ago that it was time to share his God given gifts with the world in a debut EP titled Genesis. “It is an album that is inspired by Tehillim, by King David's work,” said Fulcher. “When I imagine David Hamelech performing during his life, I imagine that his music had rhythm and spirit and with all due respect, I don't think it sounded like the typical 'Jewish' music we hear today in the orthodox world” Genesis, featuring seven original compositions, will be released on March 17th, Rosh Chodesh Nissan. Fulcher is looking forward to sharing his music at a release party taking place at The Loft and Rooftop at 83 Essex Street on Manhattan's Lower East Side of Manhattan which will also feature up and coming talents Izzy Gilden, DJ Kamilly, Simple Man and others. His soon to be released Souljass music video, featuring one of the tracks on the EP, tells the story of Cain and Hevel, which Fulcher sees as the start of baseless hatred in the world. “I want to shed light on being fearful of what we don't control or understand,” said Fulcher. “There is a message there in Cain's conversation with Hashem, when he says he doesn't know where his brother is. If we focused on the other person, if we were conscious of one another, and were tolerant of each other, we would be able to bring about the ultimate redemption.” Still, Fulcher, a resident of the Wesley Hills section of Monsey, is subtle with his messaging. “I consider myself a chasid of the Lubavitcher Rebbe and his teachings and his mission,” said Fulcher. “That is what I wanted to do with this album of songs about redemption and while I may not mention that concept by name, it is there in broader terms and in a way that will allow more people to enjoy the music.” With an edgy style that is simultaneously youthful and appealing, Fulcher is a crossover artist who can appeal to the masses, but also has his priorities straight. Passionate about his music, he is even more dedicated to his religious observance. As someone with close ties to Chabad, Fulcher feels strongly about his own obligation to improve the lives of others. “My ultimate mission with my music is to do my part to bring redemption,” explained Fulcher. “I consider this to be my shlichut and I believe each of us has to bring the world to a higher state of perfection by doing chesed, by reaching out and not just harboring light, but shining light out onto the world.” Having been the only African-American student in the yeshivos he attended since first grade wasn't always easy, admitted Fulcher, but it was an experience that prepared him for his future. “It was challenging for myself and for my peers,” said Fulcher. “It was a reality that none of them had ever dealt with before and it was new for them. Still, growing up as an African-American Jew in a white Orthodox Jewish world gave me the experience to understand the potential of breaking down the barriers of fear and difference while creating an opportunity for growth. B'nei Yisrael come in all shapes and colors and sizes and the sooner we can all handle that the sooner we will all be b'simcha.”
