This week on the Decibel Geek Podcast, Chris is hosting solo, leaning into a music-forward episode that features killer instrumentals; No Singer No Problem. This is NOT a shredder's episode; instead he's pulling from from across classic rock, hard rock, metal, and modern instrumental territory. Before diving in, Chris takes a moment to pay tribute to our late friend and former Decibel Geek staff member, Kate Thompson. Her love of music, dedication to the cause, and presence within the rock community are deeply missed, and this episode is dedicated in her memory. After a quick look back at listener feedback from the previous DBG Times episode and a new round of Geeks of the Week, the show shifts fully into instrumental mode. From an iconic Jeff Beck Group tune from the 60's to the shredder-ific heights scaled by Jason Becker and Criss Oliva to more moody, atomospheric tunes from Aerosmith, Russian Circles, and more, it's a solid mix of tunes. We hope you enjoy No Singer No Problem and SHARE with a friend! Decibel Geek is a proud member of the Pantheon Podcasts family. Contact Us!

When movie maestro and mixologist Paul Feig offers to teach you how to make a proper martini at 10a on a Wednesday, you say yes. It was thrilling to be tipsy before lunchtime. Almost as thrilling as it is to end 2025 with a conversation with the absolute icon that is director, producer, and comedy legend Paul Feig. Paul created the cult classic Freaks and Geeks, directed Bridesmaids, Spy, and A Simple Favor, and has helmed episodes of The Office, Parks and Recreation, 30 Rock, and Arrested Development. He's a delight and the fun you feel watching is 100% the fun we had IRL. We dig into his journey from being the comedy outcast at USC Film School to becoming one of Hollywood's most successful directors. We talk about the brutal 'in-between' years that almost bankrupted him, why comedies get overlooked at awards shows, and his latest film "The Housemaid"—a dark thriller that marks the launch of his new production company, Pretty Dangerous Pictures. I quite liked the film and hope everyone will get their tushies out into a theater to experience it in the company of loved ones, friends, and strangers! Tune is as we discuss what makes a project "undeniable", the state of comedies in 2025, and why vanity projects ruin careers.   Join our Substack

RECORDED FEBRUARY 25, 2025; Originally released March 26, 2025Guest: Daniel SwainWinds are howling outside Los Angeles, California on a dry January day. The hillsides north and east of the city erupt in flames. A wall of fire begins to consume neighborhoods faster than firefighters can keep up. As wind-driven embers continue to fly down hill - a thousand miles away, Daniel Swain's phone begins to light up. Journalists, companies, officials - all want answers to California's extreme weather and the impact of climate change. On this week's episode of Weather Geeks we learn how one high schooler, with a blog, ignited his career to become one of the leading communicators on climate change and the Weather out West.Chapters:00:00 California's Wildfires and Climate Change10:08 Daniel Swain: The Weather Geek's Journey19:52 The Importance of Effective Communication27:05 Linking Climate Change to Extreme Weather40:05 Understanding the Complexity of Weather EventsSee Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

Support my work on Patreon- https://patreon.com/realdavejackson Join the Tales from the Backlog Discord server- https://discord.gg/kAqSBb6jH2 Buy me a coffee on Ko-fi- https://ko-fi.com/realdavejackson There is a certain type of atmospheric (usually) indie game that gets praised for its tone, vibes and emotional impact, but sometimes criticized for underbaked or limited gameplay mechanics. Walking sims used to get the brunt of this, but the same could also be said for games like Sword of the Sea director Matt Nava's most famous works, Journey and Abzu. Sword of the Sea may not be an intentional response to those criticisms, but it does add more "involved" gameplay into the fold, incorporating sand surfing and tricks into your verb set. It then begs the discussion- on paper, adding more involved gameplay is good, right? But is that always the case?

If you want a podcast that focuses on trailers, then this is the podcast for you. If you're looking for something not trailer focused? Uhh... sorry it's all about trailers today for Jong and Michael. The guys discuss the rumored 4 trailers, yes 4... 1, 2, 3, 4 trailers for Avengers: Doomsday that are allegedly releasing one week at a time with Avatar: Fire and Ash. Find out why the guys think this strategy is absurd, the reported focus of the 1st trailer being a mistake, why they're not breaking down the Russo's Brothers cryptic post on social media, the winning marketing strategy for Wonder Man so far, and Marvel Studios hit or miss marketing strategies. Plus, the guys react to the first trailer for DC Studios' Supergirl, why the 1st trailer works so well to convey the unique tone the film will have, how it seems to be adapting the Supergirl Woman of Tomorrow comic, the newest trailer for Stranger Things, the campy teaser for Street Fighter, and more! 2026 is almost here and here at Comicast a new year usually means a new predictions issue of the podcast but this year we want to know what questions you may have for Jong and Michael. What prompts/questions would you give to the duo? For instance, which film will be the biggest box office draw? What character will make an appearance in Spider-Man Brand New Day?

We open with the shock of Carrie-Hiroyuki Tagawa's passing and step through the moments that defined him: a scene-stealing Shang Tsung in Mortal Kombat, a gallery of elegant villains across 80s and 90s action, and a deep, steady practice in martial arts that prized control over violence. That contrast powers the story—how a performer built on breath, precision, and presence could turn wafer-thin dialogue into lines you still quote, then reappear years later with the same gravity reshaped into empathy.We dig into Tagawa's training in kendo and Shotokan under Masatoshi Nakayama and how that discipline informed his screen work. The conversation pulls no punches about typecasting and yellow peril tropes that lingered in Hollywood, from Big Trouble in Little China to network TV, and how Tagawa often transcended the parts he was offered. Along the way we revisit touchstones like The Perfect Weapon, Showdown in Little Tokyo, License to Kill, Rising Sun, Planet of the Apes, Tekken, and a surprisingly rich run in animation with Star Wars Rebels and Visions. Then we pivot to his quieter triumph: a measured, humane turn in The Man in the High Castle that proved his range extended well beyond menace.The final act explores a surprising chapter—Tagawa's late-life connection to Russia, conversion to Orthodox Christianity, and an articulated desire to serve and heal. In his own words, a true warrior carries compassion. Through that lens, the career of a “villain” reads as a masterclass in restraint, intention, and dignity, delivered over more than 150 screen credits. If you love film history, character acting, martial arts philosophy, or the craft of turning stereotype into substance, this one is for you.If this resonated, share it with a friend, subscribe for more deep dives on film legends, and leave a review telling us your favorite Tagawa performance.

We've hit the big 3-0-0! To celebrate 300 episodes of 2 Geeks and a Microphone, Mike and Stephen are handing out the pink slips and taking over Hollywood. In this milestone special, we go head-to-head in a high-stakes battle to see who can build the ultimate geek movie franchise without going broke. We are playing "The $300 Million Producer." We each have a strict imaginary budget of $300 million to buy a Director, a Lead Star, a Villain, and an IP—but we can't afford the best of everything. If we blow the budget on a Tier 1 director like Nolan or Spielberg, we might be forced to cast a bargain-bin star or use a public domain character. The combinations are wild, the budgets are tight, and the pitches are ridiculous. Want a legendary beard like a true geek? Live Bearded has you covered.

This week on The Geek in Review, we sit down with Jennifer McIver, Legal Ops and Industry Insights at Wolters Kluwer ELM Solutions. We open with Jennifer's career detour from aspiring forensic pathologist to practicing attorney to legal tech and legal ops leader, sparked by a classic moment of lawyer frustration, a slammed office door, and a Google search for “what else can I do with my law degree.” From implementing Legal Tracker at scale, to customer success with major clients, to product and strategy work, her path lands in a role built for pattern spotting, benchmarking, and translating what legal teams are dealing with into actionable insights.Marlene pulls the thread on what the sharpest legal ops teams are doing with their data right now. Jennifer's answer is refreshingly practical. Visibility wins. Dashboards tied to business strategy and KPIs beat “everything everywhere all at once” reporting. She talks through why the shift to tools like Power BI matters, and why comfort with seeing the numbers is as important as the numbers themselves. You cannot become a strategic partner if the data stays trapped inside the tool, or inside the legal ops team, or inside someone's head.Then we get into the messy part, which is data quality and data discipline. Jennifer points out the trap legal teams fall into when they demand 87 fields on intake forms and then wonder why nobody enters anything, or why every category becomes “Other,” also known as the graveyard of analytics. Her suggestion is simple. Pick the handful of fields that tell a strong story, clean them up, and get serious about where the data lives. She also stresses the role of external benchmarks, since internal trends mean little without context from market data.Greg asks the question on everyone's bingo card, what is real in AI today versus what still smells like conference-stage smoke. Jennifer lands on something concrete, agentic workflows for the kind of repeatable work legal ops teams do every week. She shares how she uses an agent to turn event notes into usable internal takeaways, with human review still in the loop, and frames the near-term benefit as time back and faster cycles. She also calls out what slows adoption down inside many companies, internal security and privacy reviews, plus AI committees that sometimes lag behind the teams trying to move work forward.Marlene shifts to pricing, panels, AFAs, and what frustrates GCs and legal ops leaders about panel performance. Jennifer describes two extremes, rigid rate programs with little conversation, and “RFP everything” process overload. Her best advice sits in the middle, talk early, staff smart, and match complexity to the right team, so cost and risk make sense. She also challenges the assumption that consolidation always produces value. Benchmarking data often shows you where you are overpaying for certain work types, even when volume discounts look good on paper.We close with what makes a real partnership between corporate legal teams and firms, and Jennifer keeps returning to two themes, communication and transparency, with examples. Jennifer's crystal ball for 2026 is blunt and useful, data first, start the hard conversations now, and take a serious look at roles and skills inside legal ops, because the job is changing fast.Links:Jennifer McIver's LinkedIn pageWolters Kluwer ELM Solutions homepageLegalVIEW Insights reports homepageLegalVIEW DynamicInsights pageTyMetrix 360° pageListen on mobile platforms:  ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Apple Podcasts⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ |  ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Spotify⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ | ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠YouTube⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠[Special Thanks to ⁠Legal Technology Hub⁠ for their sponsoring this episode.]⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Email: geekinreviewpodcast@gmail.comMusic: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Jerry David DeCicca⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠
