Glam & Grow - Fashion, Beauty, and Lifestyle Brand Interviews
Tubby Todd was founded in 2014 by Andrea Faulkner Williams and her husband, Brian Todd, after their family struggled with sensitive skin, dryness, and eczema.

From that first product, Tubby Todd has grown into a full line of plant-based body care essentials trusted by families dealing with concerns like eczema, baby acne, drool rash, and dry skin. Built through authentic storytelling and a strong community of “TT Mamas,” Tubby Todd continues to grow without celebrity investors or massive advertising budgets, instead relying on the trust of its customers. Today, the brand serves more than 2 million families and continues to expand its reach, becoming one of the leading names in baby skincare while staying rooted in Andrea's original mission: creating safe, effective products she would use on her own children.

In today's episode, Becket Cook sits down with Larry Alex Taunton, author, columnist for The Federalist, and host of the podcast Ideas Have Consequences, to discuss his insightful article, "Outrage Over Texas Teaching the Bible is Anti-Intellectual." They unpack the Texas State Board of Education's decision to include Bible sections in the K-12 curriculum, exploring why this move is essential for understanding Western civilization, literature, history, and moral foundations. From Forest McDonald's lessons on intellectual honesty to the Bible's influence on figures like Shakespeare, Faulkner, Mark Twain, and the Declaration of Independence, this conversation reveals how biblical literacy shapes everything from capitalism and science to human rights and restraint on evil impulses. Larry Alex Taunton and Becket Cook also address leftist outrage, Drag Queen Story Hour, Richard Dawkins' evolving views on Christianity vs. Islam, and why removing the Bible from public schools has led to cultural decline since 1963. Perfect for fans of Christian apologetics, education reform, Western history, and conservative thought, this episode makes a compelling case for the Bible as the "prequel to everything" in the West.

How She Built a Team of 150 AI Employees Without Letting Anyone Go Look at your to-do list right now. How much of what's on it could be done by something that isn't you? My guest this week, Callan Faulkner, has 30 people on her team and 150 AI employees, and she hasn't let a single person go to make room for them. Callan built The Uncommon Business teaching founders how to hire AI employees, meaning an AI that owns a task or a whole outcome and does it as well as a person would. In three years she's gone from a kitchen-table experiment with ChatGPT to a $19.5 million launch. In this conversation she breaks down exactly how she gets her team to hand the repeatable work to AI and keep only what needs a human, and how you can start doing the same this week. So much of our worth is tied up in effort, in how long something took and how much we carried alone. AI pokes a hole in that story, and for a lot of women it feels like cheating. Callan's reframe: the hours were never what your buyers paid for. Hand off the grunt work and get back the parts of your business only you can grow.

Certa vez, Cabrera Infante deu-se a oportunidade de passar algumas horas na presença do seu mito encarnado, esse ídolo que, depois de tanto nos instigar, vai cedendo com o passar dos anos à pressão, e revela as suas falhas, fendas. Assim, com o fito de fazer uma reportagem, este soberbo escritor cubano passou um dia inteiro com Hemingway a bordo do Pilar, o seu célebre iate, pescando ao largo da costa cubana. Muito mais tarde, numa entrevista concedida nos anos noventa, foi interrogado sobre o que lhe revelara essa experiência de proximidade, e se manteve para si o anseio de ser um escritor como Hemingway? A resposta dele veio-lhe numa mistura de blasfémia e mexerico, como quem estivesse a meio de uma abusada e dolorosa refeição, arrancando pedaços de carne aos ossos do próprio pai, cuspindo as partes que já enjoam, e é esta resposta que não admite desperdício: «Queria ser tão famoso como ele. E não porque o seu estilo ou as suas personagens me influenciassem. Era, antes, a sua maneira de viver, a forma como encarava a vida. Embora, naturalmente, com o passar do tempo, ache que ele fez aquilo que os escritores fazem com demasiada frequência. Espanta-me que dedicasse tanto tempo a empreendimentos fúteis. Refiro-me ao ritual de descer todos os dias, às onze da manhã, a Cojímar, subir para o barco e fazer-se ao largo, na Corrente do Golfo, para ver se conseguia apanhar o maior peixe que pudesse existir. Era pura paranóia. Não tinha absolutamente nada a ver com a vida real; tinha tudo a ver com a fantasia. Fui com ele no barco e achei aquilo horrivelmente aborrecido. Das seis da manhã às quatro da tarde, a única coisa que fazia era beber. Embebedava-se de vodka e acabava estendido no convés, incapaz de fazer fosse o que fosse durante o resto do dia, ou quase todo o resto do dia. Depois, de repente, levantava-se outra vez: o efeito da vodka tinha passado e regressava a Cojímar. Se aquilo era um modo de vida, acredite: eu não queria vivê-lo. Ou ir para África matar animais para apanhar uma disenteria medonha e passar dias com diarreia. Ou ir para Espanha atrás de toureiros. Estava verdadeiramente louco, disso não tenho a menor dúvida. E, ao mesmo tempo, vivia numa belíssima casa nos arredores de Havana, onde tinha tudo o que desejava: um pomar de frutas tropicais e uma biblioteca enorme. Ia a Havana ao volante de um Mercury descapotável e almoçava ou bebia no Floridita ou na Zaragozana. Isso não era mau; mas o resto da sua vida foi horrível. Há uma coisa que os escritores fazem muito: perder tempo. Faulkner imaginava-se um cavalheiro do Sul que tinha de caçar raposas todos os sábados. Nesse aspecto, os escritores europeus eram mais profissionais. Não consigo imaginar Joyce a caçar na Irlanda, nem a tentar pescar um espadarte no Canal da Mancha. Levou uma vida muito séria, coerente consigo próprio, com a família e com a sua obra. O único problema de Joyce era a sua atitude distante, a sua imensa vaidade e o facto de ser um bêbedo, como a maioria dos irlandeses. Beber também é uma forma lamentável de perder tempo.» Esta resposta mostra-nos como admiração e entusiasmo acabam por dar origem aos mais impiedosos venenos, neste caso um de sorte moral, em que se censura essa tremenda disponibilidade que faz de um escritor um ser que se passeia assobiando pelos limites, como se Cabrera Infante tivesse desenvolvido uma marca muito particular de ressentimento para os seus fins, não reconhecendo como perder tempo é o elemento crucial de qualquer literatura que não esteja absorvida por essas prioridades injuriosas com que o tempo nos reclama. «Talvez seja bom que o espírito do poeta se deixe penetrar, mais do que afadigar-se para penetrar», assinala Reverdy. Para se chegar a ter a sensação de que o eixo do mundo passa pelos rins de um tipo, como nos sugere Fondane, para sentirmos como alguns são capazes de puxar por essas linhas invisíveis e fazer delas as suas redes, temos de admitir que a literatura se faz com esse risco de desperdiçar dias a fio em troca de um sobressalto, uma cadência que nos lança para o exterior daquilo que habitualmente se encontra nos livros, resistindo à tentação de nos fornecer outros simulacros. Há um excesso de talentos afinados pela percepção daquilo que a época nos exige, mas, se queremos superar este modo de mendigar a nossa própria vida, ainda vamos ter de nos adiantar a nós próprios, evoluir descosendo o forro das nossas circunstâncias, atravessar essa tradição dos oprimidos, aprender alguma coisa com os danados, e chegar ao ponto de termos visto as vezes suficientes o filme todo, imagens sucessivas ardendo até que a retina seja forçada a refazer-se das suas cinzas, já difusa e indistinta nas margens, podendo ser útil essa investigação e velocidade sustida daquilo que preenche a escuridão de uma época como de uma sala, esse filme projectado num cinema e que, pelo seu carácter denso e absoluto, como nos diz Esther Kinsky, constitui sempre, para os espectadores, uma intervenção no curso do mundo. «A experiência de uma tal intervenção era partilhada por inúmeras pessoas, ainda que elas porventura jamais lhe atribuíssem essa designação. Era um processo cultural com que muitos estavam familiarizados, com os seus pequenos rituais, os seus iniciados, fâmulos, artífices e serventes, e que depois começou inexoravelmente a desmoronar-se.» A formação de um espírito crítico passa por partilhar uma mente comum, beneficiando-se dessa proximidade que nos torna aptos a adoptar os estímulos e as inquietações que estão presentes e que trazem um efeito de sobreposição que permite desdobrar o espaço entre nós de forma minuciosa como um horizonte infinito. Já é preciso muito só para se manter à tona do mastigar ruidoso da opinião corrente, safar-se aos catálogos nessa função detrimental proposta à circulação pelos tão ansiosos medíocres, esses que a todo o momento se empenham em garantir que nada de sobrenatural possa impor-se e humilhar essas obrinhas que nos atulham o cenário. Mas, afinal, «o que é o cérebro humano senão um palimpsesto imenso e natural?, interrogava-se Thomas de Quincey… «O meu cérebro, tal como o teu, leitor, é um palimpsesto…» Ora, isto não pode ser outra coisa senão uma proposição maravilhosamente prometedora, pela possibilidade de se prosseguirem essas investigações que, libertando-se das restrições do real, dos modos caquéticos datal reportagem universal, nos façam trepar as árvores que cada um desenha à medida das suas necessidades, do seu fôlego, para se encontrar diante dos frutos da luz dessa orfandade encontrada na vazia e improvável imensidão das coisas. E não devemos enganar-nos a este respeito, pois a ficção é essencialmente um atributo e uma arte de órfãos, dos seres que se sentem de algum modo desencontrados, obrigados a estudar esta luz fodida que nos persegue pelas cidades onde nos deixámos ver nas posições mais degradantes, essa luz que parecia ter-nos arrancado as pálpebras, que à menor coisa nos fez chorar sem termos uma justificação atendível, enquanto nos escondíamos nesses autocarros e aos círculos pelos subúrbios onde zanzávamos sem poder demorar-nos demasiado em territórios que nunca eram os nossos, zonas hostis, com dificuldade em respirar à vista de todos, esse ar imundo que nos fazia sentir como uma peça solta, perdida, e a ficção surgia aos poucos como um aproveitamento dessas reservas insólitas, a longa marcha de um pesadelo a outra coisa. Se este tempo arrasta com ele a sensação de um relatório redigido depois dos eventos, um arrazoado em tom monocórdico, liso, inapelável, o modo mais impassível, inerte de se prestar contas, sem corrigir nem emprestar qualquer cor, ameaçar um contorno de emoção, os ficcionistas trabalham para infundir a realidade de um sonho mínimo, mas no qual vão empenhando toda a sua obstinação, viajando de um lugar a outro, produzindo algo mais forte, alheio às imediatas confissões, um longo exame que nos livra desta ambiente de anedota, dessas frases vazias gravadas no ar, como se inventassem um tom muito específico de azul, algo que só pode ser concebido através do «suspiro de uma cabeça guilhotinada» (Bolaño). No fundo, não basta ao escritor perder dias a fio, tornar-se um odioso meliante, gastar todo o seu tempo para abrir covas à volta da realidade, enlouquecendo com a nostalgia do não vivido, isto para mergulhar nessas zonas que se desprendem do resíduo que nos adormece os órgãos sensíveis. Ou talvez estejam submersos na mesmíssima matéria que os demais, mas dá a sensação que se tornam eles mesmos o fundo da época, traduzem toda a pressão, enfrentam seja o que for em apneia, ao passo que outros desenvolvem guelras e uma desenvoltura tremenda nas águas mais turvas. Alguém constatando este estado de coisas, ainda se dispunha a açular os elementos, e pedia que fossem gastos de uma vez todos os valores de produção reservados a este ambiente de catástrofe… «Que sangre tudo, infinitamente –/ e mal aos nossos lábios venha/ seja espuma, ouro, água». E talvez faça parte da atitude poética querer ir ao encontro do pior. Neste episódio, e a benefício de uma composição menos solvente, a Filipa Martins veio deixar-nos algumas pistas em relação a esse paciente ofício de se recolher as migalhas da memória sem se servir delas para apresentar uma vulgar queixa. Habituada a reconhecer as diferenças de pressão nos vários níveis de profundidade (ou superficialidade) do nosso meio literário, cultural ou mediático, quisemos sonhar para estes dias as pegadas luminosas que lhe possam ser assentadas e também descobrir certas fugas nesse passado que se abre como uma vertigem ao ser possível reconhecer o dom e a maldição daqueles que sempre se atribuíram um dever de deslumbrar (leia-se, assombrar e, até, importunar os demais).
Florida football hasn't had a 1,000-yard rusher in a decade. Now they've got one coming back, and he might just be getting started.The Stadium and Gale crew is breaking down the two position groups that could define Jon Sumrall's first season in Gainesville: the running backs and wide receivers. Jadan Baugh returns after rushing for 1,170 yards, earning All-SEC honors, and joining Emmitt Smith and Errict Rhett as the only underclassmen in program history to crack 1,000 in a season. Behind him, Florida quietly built one of the deepest backfields in the country, adding Evan Pryor from Cincinnati and London Montgomery from ECU while Duke Clark makes a push after a big spring.Then there's the receiver room, which might be the strength of the entire roster. Vernell Brown III led the team in receiving as a freshman All-SEC pick. Dallas Wilson set true freshman records in his very first start before injuries cut his season short. And Auburn transfer Eric Singleton Jr. arrives already knowing Buster Faulkner's offense from their Georgia Tech days, where he posted back-to-back 700-plus yard seasons. Add spring game standout Micah Mays Jr. and a stacked group of transfers and freshmen fighting for snaps, and Faulkner wasn't kidding when he said Florida can roll six or seven receivers at you.We get into all of it: how Faulkner uses Baugh, the battle for carries behind him, whether Dallas Wilson takes over as WR1, the Singleton scheme fit, the depth guys nobody's talking about yet, and whether this skill group is good enough to turn 4-8 into something real in year one under Sumrall.New episodes covering Florida Gators football, basketball, and baseball all year long.

Christina Hello, everyone, I'm Christina Darnell, the managing editor of MinistryWatch. Welcome to the MinistryWatch podcast. In today's extra episode, I talk with Warren Smith about some news items that are slightly (even significantly) outside of our normal charity and philanthropy “beat.” So, Warren, what's up first? Warren William Bennett famously said, “The plural of anecdotes is not data.” Journalists who write about religion often forget that reality. Christina The latest example came from Carson Daly of the Today Show. He wants us to believe that young people are packing Catholic Churches, and they are leading a Catholic resurgence in this country. But you're not buying it. Warren I'm not. The data tell a different story. I turned to the 2023–24 Pew Research Center Religious Landscape Study, based on nearly 37,000 randomly selected American adults, for a reality check. Among its findings: About 19 percent of U.S. adults identify as Catholic, unchanged since 2014 — but well below historical levels. Even more telling: 43 percent of Americans raised Catholic no longer identify as Catholic. Only 1.5 percent of American adults have become Catholic after being raised in another religion or with no religion. Catholics have experienced the largest net losses of any major Christian tradition through religious switching. Christina What about young people? That seemed to be the focus of the Carson Daly piece. Warren It was, but even among young people, the data don't support that conclusion. Among Americans ages 18–24, 12 percent have left Catholicism, while only 1 percent have converted into it. Pew concluded there is “no clear evidence” of a nationwide religious revival among young adults. Christina Why has this revival narrative been so persistent. We've been seeing it in the Protestant church as well. Warren Journalists want to find unusual stories. The slow secularization of religion over the past 50 years is not unusual. It's been told, and journalists are looking for a new story. As the old saying, “Dog bites man” is not a story. “Man bites dog” is a story. As for the Catholic resurgence story? Well, to torture the metaphor: “That dog won't hunt.” Carson Daly might be able to find a parish whose young adult Mass grows from 50 to 400 people, but that does not make up for the thousands of parishes experiencing gradual (and sometimes significant) decline. Christina Years ago, David Letterman had a routine that he called “Stupid Pet Tricks.” The first story we did, plus the next one, might qualify this episode of the podcast for its own “Stupid Media Tricks” segment. Warren You're right. This week saw another significant media story that caused me to wonder. In this case, veteran National Public Radio Supreme Court reporter Nina Totenberg wrote a story that Justice Samuel Alito had retired. Christina And, to be clear, Justice Alito has not retired. Warren That's right. But the story that he had retired made it through NPR's editing process and onto the website before someone discovered the mistake. And, of course, if it makes it to one website, the algorithms soon have it everywhere. Christina About an hour after publication, NPR retracted the story, issued a correction, and apologized. But the damage had been done. Warren To be fair, the damage was not severe – except, perhaps, to the credibility of NPR. But it does provide a lesson in how modern media work. Charlie Warzel, writing for The Atlantic, does a fascinating post-mortem on the episode, saying the error highlights several habits of modern journalism that are pathological. Among them: “That a breakneck news cycle is forcing even the best reporters and editors to move too fast, that modern beat reporting itself has become too consumed with being first to report stories.” Warzel's story is a smart look at how the journalistic sausage is made. I recommend it. You can find a link in today's show notes. Christina Our next story is also a media story, of sorts. Warren I had not thought of it that way, but I think you're right. Our friend Joseph Slife forwarded me a story that Michigan's Cornerstone University was offering a degree that could be completed “100%” on a smartphone. Christina Warren, did you check the date on that story. Are you sure it's not an April Fools Day prank? Warren I did check, because that was my first thought. Alas, it is not. According to The College Fix, “Cornerstone University, located in Grand Rapids, is offering an associate degree and bachelor's degree in strategic business management along with a master's in organizational leadership through its new program. Students pay a fixed rate of $2,400 per four-month term or $3,750 for graduate level work. The intended audience is working adults.” Christina That's pretty cheap, and – as a working adult – I couldn't imagine trying to get to a nearby college a couple of nights a week for classes. Warren I get that. 100 percent. I am not a Luddite. I use my iPhone for a lot of things – including learning. YouTube videos have helped me learn new licks on the guitar, have helped me repair my toilet, and have helped me gain new insights into the human condition. Christina But learning via iPhone is a different experience than face-to-face, in classroom learning. Warren That's exactly right. Especially from a wise and well-qualified teacher, in a community with other learners who are grappling with the same ideas — both in class, but also around the dinner table in the dining hall. Christina So what you're saying is that virtual learning is not worthless. It is just different. Warren I do not oppose colleges offering programs virtually, but to offer accredited degrees that carry all the prestige and credentialing power of an in-person degree…well…that is just bearing false witness. Christina Let's conclude today with news that the Texas State Board of Education passed a new required reading list that includes Bible passages. Warren On Friday, June 26, the Republican-controlled board voted 9-5-1 to approve a first-of-its-kind list that will affect more than 5 million public school students. Required readings for younger students include illustrated Old Testament stories such as Noah's Ark and David and Goliath. By upper elementary school, students read New Testament passages about Jesus' teachings and parables. Middle school and high school lessons pair scriptural themes with classic literature. Christina Most Christian groups are praising this decision. But you say…not so fast. Warren I will have to say that net-net I am glad they are reading the Bible in the classroom. You simply cannot understand most of Western literature – from Dante to Shakespeare to Faulkner to Eliot – without some biblical literacy. And I know that there are a lot of great public school teachers who will handle these texts with care and respect. Christina I sense a big fat…however…coming on. Warren Ha. So I'll say it. However… I do wonder what will happen when you put scripture into the hands of militantly secularized teachers, and you give them a platform to air their grievances. They may be forced to read the bible, but what if the teacher spends the rest of the class presenting arguments for its unreliability? Christina So are you opposed to reading the Bible in classrooms? Warren Absolutely not. I'm very much in favor of it, but I do wonder how it's going to be taught. I would recommend that parents in Texas remain vigilant. Time will tell whether this was a positive innovation for the classroom, or one full of unintended consequences. Until then, though, I know that “God's word will not return void.” So, I trust that the positive impact of scripture reading will be greater than any efforts to undermine it.

His work has since moved between reportage, portraiture and long-form photographic projects, including Unseen Waterloo, his battlefield portrait series exhibited at Somerset House. Print Swap began with a gap Sam's own wall and a long-held habit among photographers: trading prints of each other's work. In a world of endless images and thin attention, it is built on a simple belief: a print on the wall changes the relationship. In episode 285, Sam discusses, among other things: How his new app., Print Swap, came to fruition. How he got into reportage photography in search of adventure. Kashmir and Afghanistan - talkng your way in and talking your way out. Coming back with the six rolls of film that won him the Ian Parry Award.

En esta nueva entrega de Par Impar, el programa de cine de esRadio, los presentadores Juanma González y Dani Palacios conversan con Martín Torres, médico de urgencias y escritor que presenta la segunda edición de su aclamada novela negra, La Enfermera. Durante la charla sobre la mítica película de cine negro El Sueño Eterno, de Howard Hawks, se analiza cómo el autor ha logrado plasmar su experiencia profesional en un relato trepidante, ambientado en una ciudad que evoca la atmósfera del cine negro clásico: San Sebastián. Los tertulianos comparan la capital guipuzcoana con Los Ángeles por su capacidad para acoger intrigas oscuras bajo una fachada de sofisticación. Martín Torres explica que San Sebastián posee una dualidad idónea para el suspense, ya que combina el glamour de su festival de cine con el ambiente sombrío de sus días lluviosos, siendo la capital de provincia con más jornadas de precipitaciones al año. Esta atmósfera sirve de telón de fondo para La Enfermera, donde el entorno hospitalario de urgencias se convierte en el epicentro de una compleja trama criminal. El autor destaca que la medicina de urgencias aporta un dinamismo y una constante toma de decisiones extremas que encajan a la perfección con el ritmo que exige el thriller contemporáneo. El debate se traslada rápidamente a los grandes referentes del género, prestando especial atención a El Sueño Eterno, la mítica película dirigida por Howard Hawks y basada en la novela de Raymond Chandler. Martín confiesa su admiración por este clásico y destaca la colaboración del Nobel William Faulkner en el guión junto a Leigh Brackett. Entre las anécdotas del rodaje, recuerdan el famoso telegrama que Hawks envió a Chandler preguntándole quién había matado al chófer de la historia, a lo que el novelista respondió que tampoco lo sabía, un claro ejemplo de cómo la atmósfera y el magnetismo de los personajes superan a la propia coherencia de la trama. Otro aspecto de gran interés que se analiza de El Sueño Eterno es la inigualable química entre Humphrey Bogart y Lauren Bacall, cuya relación traspasó la pantalla y dio origen al famoso término Rat Pack, acuñado por la propia Bacall. Los presentadores de esRadio recuerdan cómo el estudio decidió añadir nuevas escenas para aprovechar el tirón publicitario del romance real, lo que dio pie a secuencias tan recordadas como la de los caballos, cargada de dobles sentidos de carácter sexual que lograron sortear la férrea censura de la época. Centrándose en el proceso de escritura de La Enfermera, Martín Torres revela que su prioridad ha sido construir diálogos ágiles y de gran realismo, inspirándose en el habla de la gente joven con la que trabaja a diario en el hospital. Asimismo, el autor confiesa que evita realizar descripciones físicas minuciosas de los personajes o de las localizaciones para estimular la imaginación del lector. Esta técnica permite que cada persona proyecte su propia imagen de los protagonistas, lo que agiliza notablemente la lectura y sumerge al público directamente en la acción. Por último, el programa de esRadio aborda una de las conexiones más fascinantes del cine español con Hollywood, detallando la supuesta influencia de El Crack, la obra maestra de José Luis Garci protagonizada por Alfredo Landa, en el cine de Quentin Tarantino. Los tertulianos rememoran una anécdota según la cual se le preguntó directamente a Tarantino en un festival si había copiado una escena para Pulp Fiction, a lo que el director estadounidense admitió conocer y admirar el filme de Garci. El broche de oro de la emisión lo pone la música de Fleetwood Mac con clásicos como Lies y Everywhere, que ponen ritmo a esta enriquecedora conversación sobre literatura, medicina y celuloide.

AI coding tools promise faster software development, but speed may be creating a new problem: lower-quality software at scale. In this episode of Today in Tech, Keith Shaw speaks with Dan Faulkner, CEO of SmartBear, about why AI-generated code could be outpacing the testing, review and quality controls needed to keep software reliable. Faulkner explains why business leaders could be confusing faster coding with better software development, how “automation bias” can lead developers to trust AI output too quickly, and why intent validation may become a critical new step in the software development lifecycle. They also discuss the risks of AI-generated bugs, weak testing processes, security vulnerabilities, “slop squatting,” and whether the industry is heading toward a high-profile software failure caused by unchecked AI code generation. #todayintech #artificialintelligence #aicoding #qualityassurance Follow TECH(talk) for the latest tech news and discussion!

Judy Faulkner runs a company whose software touches nearly every American's medical records. Katie traveled to Epic's sprawling, whimsical campus in Verona, Wisconsin to sit down with Judy Faulkner, the 82-year-old founder and CEO who's been at the helm for nearly 50 years. Judy talks about the living-room moment she cracked the code for electronic health records, why being one of three women in a room of 200 men turned out to be a competitive advantage, and how Epic's AI tools are quietly transforming what happens in the exam room. Katie also presses her on the hard stuff: the monopoly accusations, the non-compete clauses, the antitrust suits, and why Judy has pledged to give 99% of her wealth away while some of America's biggest tech billionaires have given far less.

The conversation covers how Evolution builds on Horns for a Halo, the current lineup with Ronnie Romero, Dave Rimmer, and Christopher Williams, and the studio dynamic with Andy Sneap. Faulkner also dives into songwriting approaches, Nashville's musician network, album sequencing, touring plans for Elegant Weapons, the next chapter for Judas Priest, and a candid health update.
