Jake Martin and co-host Landry Smith return after a long break to discuss the current “state of play” for gaming, including major shifts at PlayStation and Xbox, the Switch 2's early momentum, and how PC and console experiences are increasingly converging. They share frustrations with rising subscription costs and debate whether subscription models help or hurt creativity. In Landry's new segment “Let's Fix That,” they call out digital storefront “slop”—misleading, low-quality, and explicit shovelware flooding PlayStation and Nintendo shops—and suggest stronger curation and publishing limits. They wrap with what they've been playing, including Landry's praise for Xenoblade Chronicles X and Jake's surprisingly addictive time with Pokémon Pokopia.Timestamps:00:00 Intro01:48 Show Rundown and New Segment02:30 State of Play10:54 Are Game Subscriptions Worth It?14:06 PC vs Console23:14 Lets Fix That - "E-Slop"38:32 What Are Ya Playin'?38:50 Xenoblade Chronicles X44:27 Pokemon Pokopia54:48 Wrap Up and Plugs

Send us a text if you want to be on the Podcast & explain why!Pickleball elbow can sneak up on you fast, then hang around for months and make every grip, lift, or backhand feel like a mistake. We sit down with Dr. Rosh from The Prehab Guys to get precise about what's actually happening with lateral elbow pain, how to test it confidently, and why “tendonitis” isn't the best label for most cases of tennis elbow and pickleball elbow.https://pro.theprehabguys.com/checkout/annual-access?coupon=SHOWUP COUPON CODE SHOWUPWe walk through the practical diagnosis process you can use right away: palpation at the lateral epicondyle, Cozen's test, pain-free grip strength, and the wrist extensor stretch that actually targets the tissue by adding forearm pronation. Then we zoom out to the common traps that keep people stuck, including workload spikes, returning to racquet sports too quickly, and technique that turns the forearm into the main power source. We also cover when lateral elbow symptoms may be coming from somewhere else, including cervical radiculopathy or radial nerve irritation, so you know when to refer out instead of guessing.On the treatment side, we map out a clear rehab strategy built around education, unloading, reloading, and prevention, with starter isometrics, progressions toward isotonics, and smart ways to use soft tissue work, flossing, and bracing as symptom tools rather than “the cure.” We also get honest about injections: why cortisone can feel great short term yet backfire over a 6 to 12 month tendinopathy timeline, and what the current evidence says about PRP and other orthobiologics. If you're a trainer, you'll also hear how to build trust, reduce fear, and use a movement library to support clients between sessions.Subscribe for more evidence-based coaching conversations, share this with a friend dealing with elbow pain, and leave a five-star review if it helped.

Your gait—how you walk—can reveal a lot about your health, movement quality, and even your risk for injury or falls.In this episode of the Movement Podcast, Gray Cook and Lee Burton break down why gait analysis alone doesn't tell the full story. Many people focus on the way someone walks, but the real problem often lies deeper in fundamental movement patterns like squatting, bending, rotating, balancing, and breathing.As our population ages, gait problems are becoming a major predictor of falls, joint replacements, and loss of independence. But identifying poor gait is only the first step. The real question is: what is causing the gait problem in the first place?In this conversation, we explore:• Why gait deviations happen• How compensations develop subconsciously• Why muscle strengthening alone often fails• The movement patterns that drive healthy walking• How developmental patterns and breathing can restore movement• Why functional movement matters more than isolated exercisesIf you want to better understand how gait connects to movement health, injury prevention, and long-term mobility, this episode is a must-watch.Learn more about Functional Movement Systems and our tools for assessing movement:https://www.functionalmovement.comFunctional Movement Systems YouTube Facebook Instagram X (Twitter) Subscribe to the FMS Newsletter

Fertility struggles are often treated as a problem to solve only after they appear. But what if they're actually a signal from the body that something deeper needs attention? On this episode of The Dr. Hyman Show, I sit down with functional medicine physician Dr. Ann Shippy, author of The Preconception Revolution, to talk about why the months—even years—before conception may shape not only your health, but your future child's long-term health as well. Watch the full conversation on YouTube or listen wherever you get your podcasts. In this conversation, we explore: • What fertility challenges may be signaling about your health, and why infertility may be the body's “check engine light” • Why the 3–36 month preconception window can shape fertility, pregnancy outcomes, and your child's long-term health • How just three weeks of ultra-processed food can change sperm quality, and what that reveals about fertility • What couples can start doing now to improve fertility, from strengthening metabolic health to reducing toxic exposures • How preparing your body before pregnancy may reduce your child's risk of chronic disease later in life Preparing for pregnancy isn't just about fertility. Many of the factors that influence fertility are within your control, and your body often responds in remarkable ways.

Siddhartha Sánchez, executive director of the Bronx River Alliance, and CP, local resident and member of the group Mothers on the Move, talk about why they are against state-led plans to repair and widen the Cross Bronx Expressway, the Robert Moses-designed highway that has harmed residents' health for decades, and what they propose the state does instead.

Growth stalls in organizations far more often than leaders expect. Not because ambition fades, or talent disappears, but because focus drifts. In this episode of Partnering Leadership, Mahan Tavakoli sits down with Kevin Lawrence, a long-time advisor to CEOs and executive teams, to explore why capable organizations lose their growth orientation and how leaders can recognize the warning signs early.Kevin draws on decades of experience in boardrooms and leadership off-sites around the world, as well as insights from his book The Four Forces of Growth. He explains why most organizations become over-indexed on solving problems and optimizing what already exists, while unintentionally starving the very forces that drive future growth. The conversation challenges a deeply held leadership assumption: that fixing problems naturally leads to growth.Together, Mahan and Kevin unpack the distinction between improvement and growth, and why confusing the two leads to stalled momentum even in well-run organizations. Kevin introduces the Four Forces framework as a way for leaders to re-orient themselves amid complexity, noise, and competing priorities, especially as organizations scale.The episode also explores the role of courage and fear in leadership decision-making. Kevin shares why growth requires disciplined experimentation, not reckless bets, and why leaders must actively protect time, attention, and energy for opportunity when problems inevitably dominate the agenda.This is a thoughtful, grounded conversation for CEOs and senior leaders who sense their organizations are busy, capable, and committed, yet not moving forward fast enough and want a clearer way to understand why.Actionable TakeawaysYou'll learn why organizations don't lose ambition as they scale, but often lose orientation.Hear how problem-solving cultures quietly crowd out growth without leaders realizing it.You'll learn the difference between improving what exists and creating new growth and why confusing the two stalls momentum.Hear how leadership calendars reveal more about growth priorities than strategy documents.You'll learn why most incentive systems reward improvement but unintentionally punish growth.Hear how courage and fear shape decision-making speed and organizational momentum.You'll learn what disciplined experimentation looks like and how it differs from reckless risk-taking.Hear how leaders can identify which problems deserve attention and which are costly distractions.You'll learn why purpose-driven organizations should care deeply about growth as a path to greater impact.Connect with Kevin LawrenceKevin Lawrence WebsiteKevin Lawrence LinkedInThe 4 Forces of Growth: Defy the Odds and Keep Your Company ScalingConnect with Mahan Tavakoli: Mahan Tavakoli Website Mahan Tavakoli on LinkedIn Partnering Leadership Website

What if the very programs designed to make workplaces fairer are actually making the problem worse? In this episode, we begin with the famous "Cobra Effect"—a colonial-era policy that unintentionally increased the problem it was meant to solve—and explore how the same dynamic shows up in modern diversity, equity, and inclusion efforts. Our guest, Lily Zhang, argues that many corporate DEI initiatives fail not because the goals are wrong, but because the strategies are. Drawing on decades of research, Lily breaks down why performative programs, surface-level solutions, and "band-aid" workplace initiatives rarely create real change—and what leaders, employees, and communities can do instead to build truly fair organizations for human beings who deserve better. What to listen for:  The fabulous cobra story, helping set the stage for unintended consequences that can enable or even worsen the original problem  The best condensed explanation of the history of Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion that we've heard The contrasting stats about how many people want DEI, but say they don't see any perceived benefits – and why that is problematic.  So how do we build more humane workplaces? Enter the FAIR framework of outcomes we want to see in the workplace - fairness, access, inclusion, representation - and what it takes to transform the diversity backlash into real change: outcomes, systems, coalitions, and win-win. How Lily guards against burnout, personally About Lily:    LILY ZHENG (they/them) is a no-nonsense strategist, consultant, and author who helps leaders and practitioners build workplaces that work for everyone.

Welcome back to the Pear Healthcare Playbook!Today we're excited to sit down with Jeffery Liu, Co-Founder and Co-CEO of Assort Health, a company building specialty-specific AI voice agents to fix the front door of healthcare. Assort is reimagining patient access by reducing hold times, improving scheduling, and helping patients get to the right care faster.In this episode, we explore how Assort got started, why patient access has remained such a stubborn problem in healthcare, and what the team learned from shipping its earliest real-world deployments. We dive into why specialty-specific workflows matter, how Assort thinks about encoding the complexity of scheduling and triage, and what it takes to turn highly customized implementations into a scalable platform. We also discuss the company's broader vision for AI-powered patient navigation across voice, text, and other channels.

In this episode of That Tech Pod, Kevin and Laura sit down with IT entrepreneur Rob Calvert, founder of Second Son Consulting and a longtime leader in the Apple enterprise ecosystem. After being laid off in the early 2000s, Rob built his consulting firm from a home office into the largest member of the Apple Consultants Network in Los Angeles and one of the top firms in the country. Drawing on more than 25 years advising companies across dozens of industries, he shares a grounded look at what actually makes technology succeed or fail inside real organizations. The conversation even opens with an unexpected detour into “Punch the monkey,” a viral zoo story that sparks a debate about how easily people question or misread what they see online in the age of AI (Laura swears this is a real monkey while Kevin thinks its GenAI to sell toys).From there, the conversation explores why most people only notice IT when something breaks and how that mindset leads to bad leadership decisions. Rob argues many “tech problems” are really culture and workflow problems, pointing to common mistakes like letting experimental tools quietly become production systems or constantly chasing new platforms without fully implementing the ones already in place. The result is wasted budgets, burned-out IT teams, and systems that drift away from how people actually work. They also get into the Mac vs. PC debate in the enterprise, the subtle ways companies waste millions in IT spending, and the gap between AI hype and real business impact. Rob says many small and mid-sized companies are spending a lot of time evaluating AI tools but seeing very little return so far, while larger organizations may eventually benefit through heavy customization. At the end of the episode, Rob finally agrees to go look up Punch the monkey.

In this episode of Off Script, we continue our conversation on the structural vulnerabilities in the global pharmaceutical supply chain with Ronald T. Piervincenzi, CEO, USP, turning the focus toward practical strategies for strengthening the resilience of the global medicine supply chain. Piervincenzi discusses the economic and structural barriers to rebuilding domestic capacity for APIs and key starting materials, and explains why resilience will require coordinated incentives that reward supply security rather than simply the lowest price. He also explores how advanced manufacturing approaches could help make domestic production more viable by improving efficiency and reducing environmental impact. The conversation also examines how global quality standards can enable trusted international manufacturing networks among allied countries, and how USP's new Resilience Center aims to bring together data, benchmarking frameworks, and stakeholder collaboration to help industry and policymakers better measure supply chain resilience.

Ken Carman and Anthony Lima dive into how the Cleveland Browns might tackle their offensive line issues this offseason. They break down free agency options, possible trades, and the buzz around players like Tytus Howard and Tyler Linderbaum. Along the way, they debate what matters more right now: building a wall to protect the quarterback or focusing on finding a long-term answer under center. They also get into how the rising salary cap — and Deshaun Watson's contract restructure — could shape the Browns' roster moves moving forward.

Dr. Warren Farrell: From The Boy Crisis to Role Mate to Soulmate; Fixing Modern RelationshipsWhat Men, Women, and Modern Coupling Are Getting WrongIn this candid conversation, I sit down with Dr. Warren Farrell to explore the cultural and psychological forces reshaping modern relationships.Why do couples who genuinely love each other struggle to stay in love?

Ever heard an alcohol ad that tells you to “please drink responsibly”? Or a gambling ad that warns, "when the fun stops, stop”? Or been urged to reduce your carbon footprint?     The message is basically the same: These products and activities have risks. But mitigating them, well, that's on you. How did we get this idea that it's our personal responsibility to make a dent in big problems like climate change—and not the job of the government to impose regulations? That's the focus of the new book It's on You. Host Flora Lichtman talks with behavioral scientist and It's on You coauthor Nick Chater, about how he and his colleagues played a role in shaping a narrative of individual responsibility, and how to change it.  Guest: Dr. Nick Chater is a professor of behavioural science at Warwick University and coauthor of It's on You: How Corporations and Behavioral Scientists Have Convinced Us That We're to Blame for Society's Deepest Problems.

FIPS is an open source mesh networking project that enables devices to connect directly to each other without relying on any central servers or infrastructure. Today's internet depends on companies and governments that can monitor, censor, or shut down communication at will. FIPS solves this by giving every node a cryptographic identity and encrypting all traffic automatically, so no one in the middle can see or block what you're doing. Nodes discover each other and route messages through the mesh on their own, and regular apps like browsers and SSH clients work on top of it without any special setup.Arjen on Nostr: https://primal.net/p/npub1hw6amg8p24ne08c9gdq8hhpqx0t0pwanpae9z25crn7m9uy7yarse465grJonathan on Nostr: https://primal.net/p/npub19wavu4f7l6l43h24jyskn7fvzy37kcfp67aqjtmv2qgy4lp34nhsda8p6k FIPS Repo: https://gitworkshop.dev/npub1y0gja7r4re0wyelmvdqa03qmjs62rwvcd8szzt4nf4t2hd43969qj000ly/relay.ngit.dev/fips Tollgate: https://tollgate.meSovereign Engineering: https://sovereignengineering.io/ EPISODE: 193BLOCK: 939631PRICE: 1465 sats per dollar(02:03) Introducing FIPS and the goal of a middleman free internet(04:16) Why static IPs fail for hosting and how FIPS reframes identity(05:51) Decoupling transport and routing: protocol-agnostic design(06:50) Peer discovery across Wi‑Fi, Bluetooth, and local broadcast(07:43) Future global routing ideas and decentralized discovery(09:05) Local mesh handshakes, Noise encryption, and Bloom filters(11:02) Community meshes, resilience, and mixed transports(11:42) Starlink and bridging meshes over the wider internet(13:21) Use case: protest resilience and reconnecting to the world(14:08) Origins: conferences, Sovereign Engineering, and NoDNS(16:04) From NoDNS to FIPS: faster updates, remaining gaps(17:10) Economics: sats for peering and incentive-aware routing(18:00) Abuse, DDoS surfaces, and defenses via npubs and rate limits(19:45) Learning from mesh hype cycles and bootstrapping adoption(22:32) Lowering app friction: make existing apps work over FIPS(25:12) DNS trick: IPv6 mapping and transparent transport(27:08) Backwards compatibility as a must-have for scale(28:08) Rethinking data flow with Nostr streams and local hosting(30:12) Offline-to-online spectrum and graceful reconciliation(31:10) Status update: early servers, testers, and bandwidth limits(32:20) Physical constraints: MTU, Bluetooth, LoRa(36:00) Reality checks: pitfalls, past meshes, and expectations(38:12) New primitives: Nostr, Blossom, eCash; Jonathan's role(40:37) Identity concerns, key rotation, and operational practices(46:10) Hosting sensitive services: hot keys(48:09) Self-hosting privately, Tor comparisons, and latency(49:37) Observation, Tollgate incentives, and community privacy(50:40) Tollgate legal concerns and community norms(53:21) Call to action, testing FIPS, and packaging plans(55:10) Closing thoughtsmore info on the show: https://citadeldispatch.comlearn more about me: https://odell.xyz
