Four episodes in, 9-1-1 crashes a passenger plane into the Pacific, sets the water on fire, traps people inside a sinking fuselage, and casually establishes the blueprint for every enormous disaster the show will throw at us later. But beneath all the spectacle, 1x04 "Worst Day Ever" really is an episode about the people who keep running into emergencies because not doing it just isn't an option. And it's about the moment three coworkers finally start becoming something that looks a lot like family.This episode, we break down:

In this episode of the Sports Tech AllStars Podcast, we present Chris, Partner at Ten Squared Capital, a seed to Series A fund investing across the attention economy- media, entertainment, live experiences and sports.The conversation explores why live sports and live events become more valuable as AI floods the world with content, how fandom is one of the most undermonetised assets in sport, and why athletes as individual brands are still massively undervalued relative to the teams they play for.TakeawaysThe attention economy covers everything competing for your time and money outside of work Live sports become more exclusive and more valuable precisely because AI makes everything else abundantFandom is severely undermonetised — fans paying twenty dollars a month for Spotify consume hundreds of hours of music and there is a massive willingness-to-pay gap waiting to be unlockedTen Squared backs infrastructure and platform companies powering the attention economy rather than individual creators or specific IPTokenization has three genuinely strong use cases in sports: payment rails for direct athlete-to-fan transactions, financing junior sports careers and creator revenue factorizationProof of attendance and digital collectibles done right can reward loyal fans and create meaningful data for teams and athletesThe biggest athletes arguably have larger fanbases than the biggest teams NIL legislation is only a few years old — a generation of athletes born into that infrastructure will fundamentally change how sports commerce worksFormula One is the best existing example of how to tier fandom across multiple segments and price pointsTo learn more, visit: https://tensquared.com/Get in touch with Chris at: https://www.linkedin.com/in/christophercheung93/Hosted by Rohn Malhotra from SportsTechX - Leading source of Investment and Innovation insights in sports.STX Intelligence Hub: sports tech company, investor, and deal database: intelligence.sportstechx.comAs promised, here's your small surprise:Unlock your 30-day growth plan (worth €49) on the SportsTechX Intelligence Hub for free!Simply verify your company details and you get access to 1,500+ investors, programmes, initiatives and events in the sportstech ecosystem.Here's how to get set up and if you'd like a walkthrough of the platform, feel free to book a call here.Download the latest Industry Reports here: https://intelligence.sportstechx.com/reports/gster26Sign Up for the Sports Tech Weekly Newsletter for more news, features & insights on Sports Tech: https://newsletter.sportstechx.com/Chapters00:00 Introduction00:36 From Toronto to LA Investment Banking — How Sports Shaped Chris's Career02:30 Joining Ten Squared Capital and What the Attention Economy Actually Means03:59 Why Live Sports Become More Valuable in an AI-Abundant World06:52 The Challenge of Picking Winners in the Attention Economy08:05 The Picks and Shovels Approach 10:29 Web Three, Blockchain and What Still Applies to Sports Today11:58 Three Tokenization Use Cases That Actually Work in Sports14:27 Proof of Attendance Protocols and Digital Collectibles Done Right15:26 How Ten Squared Invests 17:09 Portfolio Spotlight18:25 The Tiering of Fandom 19:44 Formula One as the Best Example of Multi-Tier Fandom20:31 Formula One's Half a Million Fans at Silverstone21:33 Athletes as Their Own Brand — The Most Undervalued Asset Class in Sport23:20 How Technology Has Changed What an Individual Athlete Can Build24:24 NIL, the Next Generation of Athletes and What Comes Next25:13 What the Next 12–18 Months Look Like for Ten Squared Capital26:29 Favourite Sporting MomentStay Connected with SportsTechXSpotify: https://creators.spotify.com/pod/profile/sportstechx/Apple Podcast: https://podcasts.apple.com/in/podcast/the-sports-tech-allstars-podcast/id1271329751LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/company/sportstechxYouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@SportsTechX

Reina Valentine returns to the podcast for her 6th episode as we get to catch up and talk fandom. In the title, you'd normally see the fandoms we'd be talking about. Funny (or unfunny) thing is, Reina has said that she's not currently a part of any fandom - and that is what we are discussing on the episode. We talk about how Reina pulling back from fandoms happened, with shows like Game of Thrones, The Acolyte, and Shadow and Bone, and the reasoning for each is different - but heavy is the heart that throws down for fandoms like Reina did. So she made that decision to step back from that fandom spaces. You'll get to hear about the what's and the why's, and how things are going now. Reina also updates us about her cosplay, now that she's regained control of her Instagram. We talk about several cosplays that have yet to be shot and posted, like one of Rose's Titanic outfits, and the work that went into creating it. We discuss some of the other cosplays she's done, along with some potential future cosplays.

Access All Areas: Bee France on a Lifetime of INXSMarv sits down with Bee France, host of not one but two INXS podcasts — INXS Access All Areas and Listen Like Fans — for a sprawling, story-packed conversation about the band that has shaped her life for nearly 40 years. From an accidental introduction via a friend's Duran Duran fandom to becoming genuine friends with band members like Tim Farriss and Kirk Pengilly, Bee shares how a teenage concert obsession turned into a thriving podcasting career and a global fan community spanning 40+ countries.They cover the band's early history and lineup origins (Guinness and Doctor Dolphin!), dig into album-by-album favourites, revisit iconic live moments (Wembley Stadium, the Aria Awards, the Brit Awards Oasis controversy), and talk candidly about the harder topics fans avoid — Michael Hutchence's death, the misconceptions around Paula Yates, and the emotional weight some fans still carry. Bee also opens up about the mechanics of podcasting: production tools, working with a co-host across cities, AI-assisted editing (and why she won't let AI fully edit a show), and her hopes for INXS's 50th anniversary and their long-overdue nomination for the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame.Devil Loose: The Life and Music of Harry Vanda podcast

In this episode of Lunatics Radio Hour, we explore the history of the Final Girl, one of horror's most recognizable character archetypes.

We also look at how modern horror films have challenged, expanded, and reinterpreted the trope for new audiences.Join us as we trace the history of the Final Girl and her lasting impact on horror cinema.Follow @Sonrisalibrary on Instagram.SourcesMen, Women, and Chain Saws by Carol J Clover (1992)Fandom article: Halloween Flips The Final Girl Trope on Its Head by Kim Taylor-FosterIn Session Film article by Codie Allen: The Scream Queen's Legacy: Janet Leigh and the Evolution of HorrorDread Central article by Mary Beth McAndrews: Jess's Choice: How ‘Black Christmas' (1974) Responsibly Addresses Abortion and Bodily Autonomy Get Lunatics Merch here.

Zach Michaels, Director of Events at Fandom, returns to The Comic Source to preview one of San Diego Comic-Con's most sought-after opening-night events. He discusses how fans can win invitations, the work required to produce the massive celebration, and why San Diego provides an experience unlike any other major convention. Zach also reveals some of this year's entertainment and activations, including The Coverups led by Billie Joe Armstrong, Xbox and Halo: Campaign Evolved, Suntory's -196 brand, Z2 Comics' And Out Comes the Wolf, and an unconventional pep squad that will be part of the performance. Beyond the party, the conversation explores Fandom's larger mission of providing a place where every interest—from comics and gaming to anime, movies, television, and reality shows—can be celebrated without one community being elevated at the expense of another.
