This week, Jesus says, “Blessed are those who mourn, for they shall be comforted.” In a world broken by sin and death, mourning is real. But Jesus does not leave His people with grief as the final word. He enters our brokenness, dies and rises, and promises the day when death will be swallowed up forever, every tear will be wiped away, and all things will be made new. Isaiah 25:6–9 Revelation 21:1–5 Matthew 5:1–4

Altium Develop unites your design, sourcing, and manufacturing teams in one cloud platform so EMC and layout problems get caught long before your board ever reaches the test house: https://www.altium.com/develop?utm_source=youtube&utm_medium=video&utm_campaign=ontrack-podcast&utm_content=70-of-pcbs-fail-emc-testing-and-ai-is-making-it-worse EMC testing failure rates are climbing toward 70%, and on this episode of the OnTrack Podcast, host Zach Peterson sits down with EMC expert Dr. Anton Tishchenko to unpack why — and what role AI is really playing in modern PCB design. They cut through the AI hype, explaining why large language models will confidently hand you a bad PCB layout, why setting up constraints is "garbage in, garbage out," and why hardware is heading for the same reckoning software already faced. If your boards keep failing radiated emissions, this conversation explains where the real problems start. Anton also demos his web-based EMC analysis tool (pcb4emc.com), an EMC design rule check that works directly from Gerber files — no schematics, no NDAs, no sensitive data required. You'll see how it evaluates ground plane quality, differential and single-ended impedance, return paths, and crosstalk risk using the 3W rule, plus a frank discussion of coplanar waveguides, stackup awareness, and where AI genuinely helps engineers (datasheet summaries, literature reviews, and simulation enhancement) versus where it falls flat. Essential viewing for any PCB designer serious about EMC compliance.
Pastor Blake teaches that our faith in God and his promises for the future shapes the way we live in the present.
Ein eigenes Buch schreiben – davon träumen viele. Doch wie wird aus einer Idee tatsächlich ein fertiges Buch? In der neuen Folge von StoryRadar spricht Ferris mit Autorin, Journalistin und Kommunikationsprofi Nadine Gerber über den Weg von der ersten Idee bis zur Veröffentlichung. Nadine verrät, woran man erkennt, ob ein Thema genügend Potenzial für ein Buch hat, welche Fehler viele Erstautor:innen machen und wie man auch dann motiviert bleibt, wenn das Manuskript monatelang nur auf dem eigenen Laptop liegt. Ausserdem spricht sie über Ghostwriting, die Rolle von Dramaturgie und die Frage, ob KI beim Schreiben eher Fluch oder Segen ist. Natürlich geht es auch um die Verlagswelt, Selfpublishing und die finanzielle Realität hinter dem Traum vom Bestseller. Jetzt reinhören und erfahren, wie aus einer Idee ein Buch wird!

If you ever saw my oldest son, when he was younger, eating a hamburger, you'd see how quickly it disappears. I'm sure that you would find it hard to believe that there was a time when he was actually too young to eat one. Yes, but we have the movies at home to prove it! You've seen this little baby eating this mush that only babies eat. He didn't have any equipment to chew a hamburger with, right? So we'd feed him this smooth, beaten-to-death version of the real thing – no chewing, no effort, it just kind of slides right on down. Now he has to work harder on it these days, like when you're eating a steak. But he seems to have no desire to go back to the good old days of baby food. The best food will require some effort, but it's worth it. I'm Ron Hutchcraft and I want to have A Word With You today about “Lazy Listeners.” Our word for today from the Word of God comes from Hebrews 5, and it's about lazy eaters. I'm beginning at verse 11. The writer says, “We have so much to say to you, but it's hard to explain because you are slow to learn. In fact, though by this time you ought to be teachers, you need somebody to teach you the elementary truth of God's Word all over again. You need milk, not solid food. Anyone who lives on milk, being still an infant, is not acquainted with the teaching about righteousness. But solid food is for the mature, who by constant use have trained themselves to distinguish good from evil.” Now, the writer of Hebrews is writing to some Christians who insisted on food that didn't demand much of them. In this case, milk. They were lazy eaters. Well, that kind of laziness is all too common among a lot of us Christians today; we are, in North America, some of the most entertained Christians in history. We're so spoiled by our radio preachers, our TV shows, our seminars, our Christian celebrities. We want our sermons to be funny, and exciting, red-hot challenging, and short. We want our speakers to be entertainers. We expect our teachers to be brief, to the point. How dare they talk too long! And we want our pastor to chop up our food for us and give it to us Gerber-ized. We like melt-in-your-mouth messages that don't take a lot of effort. Well, there are a few very gifted pastors or speakers who do 80% of the chewing for you. All you have to do is meet them with maybe 20% of your attention; you don't have to put a lot of effort into it. But most of God's messengers require careful attention from you, a determination to follow along with them, a willingness to make your own applications and connections. There are some people who have a lot to say from the Lord, but they require you to come maybe 40-50-70% of the way. There are writers like that. You say, “This is hard to read.” But it's worth sticking with it; it's worth chewing. See, a spiritual leader doesn't have to be funny or have a ton of charisma in order to feed you God's Word. He doesn't have to be some famous preacher or TV celebrity. God has put you under the teaching care of someone who loves God and cares about you; one of his servants. Don't expect that leader, that pastor, that teacher, that writer to do all the chewing for you. Give your God-appointed teachers your very best. When you listen to them, go prepared to chew, to work for your good meal. You're too big for baby food. Lazy eaters never grow up. So, don't be too lazy to chew a good piece of meat.
What happens when a qualified attorney swaps legal briefs for luxury hospitality? You get Claudia Gerber, the 32-year-old powerhouse behind the Elton Boutique Hotel in Durban North. In this Women Crush Wednesday chat, Carol sits down with Claudia to talk about building a family business from the ground up, honoring her late brother Alton through every detail of the hotel, and why pivoting from law to hotel ownership was the best decision she ever made. They also get into what it's really like working with family, the beauty of being proudly African, and exciting news — the Elton brand is expanding to Newcastle in 2027. If you're a young person wondering whether to take the leap, Claudia's advice is simple: get your foot in the door and work your way up. Hard work always finds its home.
This week, we celebrated Vacation Bible School at Trinty. The kids spent the week hearing five big truths: God is our Creator. God knows everything. God is our safe place. God is love. God is forever. Those truths are not just for kids. God created us for life with Him and love for one another. Sin bends that love inward, but God shows His love for us in this: while we were still sinners, Jesus died for us. Jesus takes our death in our place and for our sake, and He gives us His life. Death was not the last word for Jesus, and because of Him, death is not the last word for us. God made you. God knows you. God loves you in Jesus. God gives you life now and forever. Wow, God. Genesis 1:1-5, 24-31 1 John 4:7-16 Luke 24:1-12

I'm your host, Josh Hadley, where I interview the top business leaders in e-commerce. Past guests include Kevin King, Howard Tye, and Stephen Pope. Today is a special episode where I have joined a group panel of other podcasters that are interviewing Michael E Gerber, the author of the E myth. This is a foundational book that many of you have probably read. And now we get his decades of wisdom and we get to ask him questions. I know you're going to enjoy this podcast episode, so sit back, enjoy and enjoy this episode with Michael E Gerber, the author of the E myth. You know, Michael, I'm amazed with the book that you you wrote e myth. And because it is a timeless principles that are going to impact generations to come. And I look forward to my children and my grandchildren being able to read those principles. As an e-commerce business owner and as I speak with other e-commerce business owners, there's kind of this myth, that people believe that they could do it all on their own.Josh 00:01:09 Right. And they what they do is they build a team of a lot of VA's that are surrounding themselves, but they are still the core function of the business. There's a quote from your book that I want to read real quick and get your take on it. If your business depends on you, you don't own a business. You have a job. And it's the worst job in the world because you're working for a lunatic. So, Michael, can you provide some additional insight as to if you are still working in the business, why you don't actually own a business?Michael 00:01:42 Well, you have to understand that, oftentimes my statements are stronger than they need to be. Oftentimes, as well, they're not strong enough, but I understand. Take that quote working for a lunatic and you might change it to be working for an idiot. And it's that idiot that I attempt to transform. And the only way in the world that idiot is going to be transformed is if he or she doesn't persist. Being that idiot in the way they think about who they are, why they do what they do, what they're there to create, and how it's going to be created if in fact, they grow beyond their idiot hood.Michael 00:02:28 So it's a master, master, master position to take charge. In short, to strenuously understand that while you're not in a people development business. In short, that's not the intent you are. You get what I mean by that. While you're not in a people development business, you actually are. Everyone is. But the question then becomes what is people development? And how does one approach people development at the very outset? And that is in the positioning of who you are and what you do. So the most critical process in what I describe, how many of you have read beyond the email?Josh 00:03:17 Yes, I've read it.Michael 00:03:19 Well congratulations Josh folks. I picked the book up. It's beyond the myth, the evolution of an enterprise from a company of one to a company of 1000. And at the heart of that book is what I describe as the Eightfold Path. The Eightfold Path is crucial to the process of becoming who you intend to be. Let me describe the eight steps in the Eightfold Path.Michael 00:03:48 I have a dream. I have a vision. I have a purpose. I have a mission. I have a job, I have a practice. I have a business. I have an enterprise, a dream, a vision, the purpose, the mission, the job, the practice, the business, the enterprise. The Eightfold path is the process for growing a company of one to a company of 1000. It is the process of maturing from doing it yourself, doing it, doing it, doing it, doing it to create an enterprise that does it in great measure with a great number of individuals who are in fact, instilled in the process of understanding and appreciating what a dream is, what a vision is, what a purpose is, what a mission is. How many of you are familiar with the Dreaming Room? So the Dreaming Room is a program that I developed to take one through the first four steps to discover your dream, your vision, your purpose, your vision. If you fail to discover your dream.Michael 00:05:00 I'm saying you'll never discover your vision. If you fail to discover your dream, I say go to never discover your purpose. And you follow me and follow me. First this, then that, then that, then that. So there's a process, a mad process through which you grow in maturity, you grow in eloquence. You grow in ability to literally become the one you can't even imagine becoming. At the very outset of this process, my dream way back then, in 1977. Wow, that's a long time ago. My dream was to transform the state of small business worldwi...

Un virus inarrestabile, simile ad una potente influenza ma dagli effetti più devastanti e letali, si sta diffondendo in tutto il mondo. Il contagio e il contenimento dei pazienti che ne sono affetti, ci viene raccontato dal punto di vista di un medico, una giovane che ha appena contratto il morbo e un ragazzo che fa parte di un'organizzazione sanitaria mirata a controllare il virus.Film italiano che, assieme al più famoso Contagion, sembrò profetizzare il Covid, veicolando grazie all'horror ed al mockumentary, un quadro sociale terrificante.Nonostante qualche difetto di recitazione, la pellicola è stata sorprendente, per quanto mi riguarda. Il tutto sembra veramente realistico, grazie al massiccio utilizzo di camera a mano e interviste di persone comuni che devono affrontare qualcosa di estremamente minaccioso e subdolo.Alcune scene fanno davvero sudare freddo. Lo trovate su Prime Video e vi invito calorosamente a recuperarlo. Un ottimo esempio di cinema a bassissimo budget, ma dalle idee strabordanti.

In this final week of our Living Hope series, Peter calls God's people to keep loving one another, show hospitality without grumbling, and use the gifts we have received as good stewards of God's varied grace. This is not one more burden to carry. It begins with what Jesus has already done for us. He has welcomed us, loved us, served us, and made room for us. Now we love, welcome, and serve with the strength God supplies, so that in everything God may be glorified through Jesus. Acts 1:12–26 1 Peter 4:7–11; 5:6–11 John 17:1–11
In this week's Living Hope series, Peter reminds us that Jesus suffered once for sins, the righteous for the unrighteous, to bring us to God. Our troubles, fears, and frustrations are real, but they do not get the last word. When our eyes are fixed on Jesus, we begin to see our suffering, our Baptism, our forgiveness, and our hope through His death, resurrection, and reign. Acts 17:16–31 1 Peter 3:13–22 John 14:15–21
Fünf Tage nach dem sensationellen Meistertitel des FC Thun ist Trainer Mauro Lustrinelli zu Gast in einer Spezialausgabe der «Dritten Halbzeit» – live vor rund 300 Gästen in der Thuner Stockhorn Arena. Bei einem Glas Weisswein spricht der 50-Jährige über die emotionale Meisterfeier, die Entstehung der mutigen Spielidee des FC Thun und darüber, weshalb seine Mannschaft für viele Gegner unlösbare Probleme geschaffen hat. Lustrinelli erklärt, warum Erfolg nur möglich ist, wenn der ganze Club hinter einer Philosophie steht – und weshalb Resilienz im Spitzenfussball entscheidend ist. Der frühere Schweizer Nationalspieler erzählt ausserdem von seinem Weg als Trainer, von seiner langjährigen Zusammenarbeit mit Andres Gerber und Nelson Ferreira, warum ein gutes Risotto viel mit einem funktionierenden Team gemeinsam hat – und wie er reagieren würde, wenn plötzlich Real Madrid anrufen würde. Ein ausführliches Gespräch über Führung, Teamgeist, Spielphilosophie, Mentalität und den überraschenden Meistertitel des FC Thun.Die Themen: 00:00 Intro 06:23 Die Meisterfeier in Thun 11:34 Eine Spielidee wird geboren 21:27 Lustrinelli, Gerber und Ferreira 28:18 Die Spielidee des Meisters 39:44 Ohne Mannschaft kein Erfolg 48:30 Lustrinellis Weg als Trainer 58:50 Meisterprämie und Real Madrid 01:09:48 Fragen aus dem Publikum In der Dritten Halbzeit wird über den Schweizer Fussball diskutiert.

Der FC Thun ist zum ersten Mal Schweizermeister. Somit gelingt dem Aufsteiger ein historischer Erfolg, der weit über die Landesgrenzen hinaus für Schlagzeilen sorgt. Wie war dieser Titelgewinn möglich? Andres Gerber, Präsident des FC Thun, ist zu Gast bei Simone Hulliger. Gerber ist seit über 20 Jahren beim FC Thun. Er war Spieler, Trainer, Sportchef und nun Präsident. Dabei hat er sowohl Höhepunkte als auch Abstürze erlebt. Dass der Club trotz deutlich kleinerem Budget als manch ein anderer Ligakonkurrent obenauf schwingt, ist bemerkenswert. Wie gelang es Gerber, ein Team zu formen, das als Kollektiv überzeugt? Spielt Geld im Fussball doch nicht die entscheidende Rolle? Und wie gross ist die Gefahr, dass nach diesem Höhenflug erneut ein Absturz droht?
In this week's Living Hope series, Peter tells us to “long for the pure spiritual milk” so that by it we may grow up into salvation. This is not a message about becoming more saved or graduating from God's gifts. In Baptism, God gives life by His Spirit. Through His Word and Supper, He continues to feed and sustain that life. Whether we are newly baptized, newly confirmed, or have confessed the faith for decades, we never outgrow receiving from God. Acts 6:1–9; 7:2a, 51–60 1 Peter 2:2–10 John 14:1–14
Olivia Gerber is a sunset-chasing, Jesus-loving adventurer based in Northern Indiana. She finds pleasure in perfectly ripe avocados, plane tickets, and lavender lattes, but her deepest joy is found at the feet of her Savior and she longs to spread His hope in the world. Her health challenges have given her a tender heart toward those facing chronic pain, and she loves bringing hope to this under-served community through her book, Hold Hope. She recently married the curly love of her life and is loving her new adventure with Jack!In this conversation, Olivia shares how suffering stripped away her sense of control and turned her faith inside out—and how praise, specific prayer, and keeping a record of God's faithfulness carried her through the hardest years. If you're in a season where the answer feels like "no" or "not yet," I hope this encourages you to keep praying anyway.You can find Olivia at letterstoholdhope.com and on Instagram @letterstoholdhope.

In this week's Living Hope series, Peter calls us to “be holy,” but what does this mean? For some, those words sound like a crushing burden. For others, they sound like a reminder of how stuck they are. For others, they sound like a word for somebody else. But because Jesus is risen, we hear these words through the Holy One who ransomed us with His precious blood, made us His own, and set us free to live as His holy people. Acts 2:14a, 36–41 1 Peter 1:13–25 Luke 24:13–35
Atze und Leon melden sich aus Kopenhagen und Tokio mit dieser Folge ausm Archiv! Wir Menschen vergleichen uns permanent mit anderen. Macht die Kollegin den Job besser? Bin ich als Vater gut genug?

In today's gospel the risen Christ appears to the disciples and offers them the gift of peace. Even amid doubts and questions, we experience the resurrection in our Sunday gathering around word and meal, and in our everyday lives. Throughout the coming Sundays of Easter the first two readings will be from the Acts of the Apostles and the first letter of Peter. Even as the early Christians proclaimed the resurrection, we rejoice in the new birth and living hope we receive in baptism.Scripture Readings: Acts 2:14a, 22-32; Psalm 16; 1 Peter 1:3-9; John 20:19-31
On America at Night with McGraw Milhaven, Craig Sumner, retired NASA aerospace engineer and former Artemis II propulsion manager, joined the program to discuss the long road that led to NASA's Artemis II mission. Sumner explained the history of the Artemis program, the technological progress behind NASA's return to human deep-space missions, and how decades of engineering and testing are paving the way for astronauts to once again travel around the Moon. Next, Nikki Gerber, co-organizer for Ohio Residents for Responsible Development, discussed growing opposition to the construction of large data centers in parts of Ohio. Gerber explained concerns from residents about energy consumption, environmental impact, and the strain that large-scale tech infrastructure could place on local communities. Later, Dr. Bruce Betts, Chief Scientist and LightSail Program Manager for The Planetary Society, joined the show to talk about the Artemis II splashdown and what it means for the future of space exploration. Betts discussed how Artemis missions are setting the stage for Artemis III and eventually human missions to Mars, and why the success of these missions is critical for the future of human spaceflight. Finally, Theo Lewis Clark, the show's Hollywood Executive for a Day, returned for the weekly movie trivia segment, challenging McGraw and listeners with film questions and pop culture trivia.

The U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) changed the dollar value of a statistical life in January 2026, essentially dropping it to zero. What does that mean for the average American? As Anthony Gerber, MD, PhD, University of Kentucky, explains to Air Health Our Health host Erika Moseson, MD, MA, this means the agency will no longer account for the healthcare costs of air pollution and lost lives when determining how account how clean air policies and other key legislation affect communities. In this conclusion of a two-part series on the EPA's dollar value of a statistical life, Dr. Gerber explains what this change means and why is it significant.
This Easter, we hear the good news that the tomb is empty and Christ is Risen. He is Risen Indeed! Alleluia!! But Easter is not only about what happened to Jesus back then. It's about what His resurrection means for you now, for your future, and for the good news you now have to share. Because Jesus is risen, that changes everything for you and for the whole world! Jeremiah 31:1–6 Colossians 3:1–4 Matthew 28:1–10
Ein ungewöhnliches Spiel von einem Studio mit ungewöhnlichen Namen: So könnte man den Multitasking-Kochsimulator Goblin Sushi des Schweizer Studios Old Cake Factory umschreiben. Und damit traf das Mini-Team offenbar genau ins Schwarze: Ihr Spiel erschien im Februar '26 als Early Access und schlug direkt so erfolgreich ein, dass das Gründerduo von der Teilzeit in die Vollzeitarbeit springen konnten. Nun arbeiten sie auf den Full Release ihres Spiels hin, während weiterhin regelmäßig positive Kritiken eintrudeln. Wie haben sie das in Zeiten überfüllter Spielregale geschafft? Die Antwort auf diese und noch einige mehr Fragen sucht Dom Schott im Gespräch mit Annika Gerber, die zum Gründungsteam der Old Cake Factory gehört, als Artist für den ziemlich einzigartigen und charmanten Look des Erfolgsspiels verantwortlich ist - und von einer Lokalzeitung einmal als Geburtshelferin der Schweizer eSport-Szene beschrieben wurde. Überrascht? War Dom auch, bevor er im Gespräch die ganze Geschichte hinter diesem Zeitungsartikel erfuhr.

Today's guest is someone our audience already knows and respects — and I'm excited to have him back on the show. Kevin King is not just a veteran Amazon seller… he's one of the most connected and influential figures in the entire Amazon ecosystem. He's been selling online for decades, has built and exited multiple brands, and continues to operate in the trenches — not from theory, but from real-world execution. When Kevin speaks, it's not just his own experience — it's insights gathered from the top 1% of sellers globally. So if you're a 7-figure or 8 figure seller looking to break into the next level, you're about to hear from someone who has a front-row seat to what the best in the world are actually doing right now.

What if the wrong click turned out to be the right one? And once you're in the industry, how do you build a process that lets a lean team of 15 manage more than 2,000 unique circuit board products without it all falling apart? What you'll learn… (00:50) Are Halvorsen's role at Microchip and his team's mission building eval boards and EVKs for new silicon products (04:00) How Microchip's Trondheim team manages high-mix, low-volume production of 2,000+ PCB products using contracted manufacturers and a PCB broker (07:35) Why DFM must be built into the design from day one and what it means to truly know your CM's capabilities (11:45) Test point strategy: when full net coverage makes sense versus targeted functional testing for complex, constrained boards (16:25) Gerber vs. ODB++ vs. IPC-2581—where the industry actually stands today (17:20) Scaling design processes across global teams: lessons learned from early Atmel days to Microchip's current operations (23:00) The “river” philosophy: a self-service, no-blockers approach that lets designs flow from concept to warehouse (24:45) What Are is looking forward to with Siemens EDA—integrated toolchains, browser-based design review, and automatic lifecycle traceability (29:05) Final thoughts: constant change, AI, data centers, and the endless possibilities ahead for PCB engineers More about the episode… In this episode of the Printed Circuit Podcast, host Steph Chavez welcomes Are Halvorsen, Principal Design Engineer at Microchip Technology's Trondheim office in Norway. Are's path into engineering is anything but conventional — starting as a teenage electrician-in-training, pivoting through an oil-drilling master's program, and ultimately landing in electronics after accidentally clicking the wrong course in an online portal. The conversation dives into Microchip's high-mix, low-volume production model, where a team of 15 operations professionals manages over 2,000 unique PCB products through contracted manufacturers. Are walks through their layered quality approach — AOI, MDA, and a Python-based functional test framework — and explains how remote debugging through test logs lets him pinpoint issues without ever touching the hardware. Are also reflects on the lessons learned scaling these processes across global teams, championing a self-service "river" philosophy where well-prepared design packages flow from creation to warehouse with minimal friction — but without sacrificing accountability. The episode closes with his vision for a fully integrated EDA toolchain that frees engineers to focus on what they do best: designing great hardware.

Vineet Dubey is an environmental litigator in California who sues companies selling consumer products tainted with toxic chemicals. His primary legal vehicle is California's Proposition 65, a ballot-initiative statute requiring companies to either warn consumers about chemical exposure or remove offending products from shelves. In this episode, Vineet explains how cases come to him through environmental testing groups, how toxicologists help establish whether a violation exists, and why he pushes companies to reformulate products rather than simply slap on a warning label. He also walks through his case against Gerber over lead in baby food, the realities of contingency work against corporate giants, and what it takes to learn hard science as a political science major. Vineet Dubey is a graduate of UCLA Law.

He joins me today to talk about the third book (Journey to Customer Obsession- A Leadership Blueprint for CX Maturity and Enterprise Transformation: How executives can turn fragmented CX efforts into enterprise-wide customer obsession), which is effectively the executive edition of the other two books.

Mark also highlights the value of expert partnerships and leveraging both human intuition and AI, offering actionable advice for e-commerce brands aiming to succeed in physical retail.Here are the 3 action items that Josh identified from this episode:Prove Demand Before Approaching RetailersBuild real consumer pull through DTC + paid media (TV, social, influencers). Retail buyers want evidence of demand, not Amazon screenshots. Come in with a buyer-ready pitch showing how you'll drive traffic to their stores.Position Your Product as a Clear Upgrade or Category ExpanderEnsure your SKU hits at least one winning lever:Premium trade-up (higher-margin, innovative)Demographic expander (brings new shoppers)Category expander (increases consumption)If your product is a “me-too” item, it won't make it onto shelves.Build a Retail-Ready P&L With Strong Margins & Media PlanYou need minimum 5:1 markup and a funded media strategy (TV recommended) to support retail sell-through.

You've got a big idea for a book—but is it the right book for your business? Many entrepreneurs jump into writing without fully clarifying why they're writing or how the book fits into their long-term strategy. Without a clear purpose, the message often gets diluted—and the book, while well-intentioned, ends up disconnected from the offers and outcomes that could truly move their business forward. That's why purpose comes first. I help entrepreneurs think strategically about their book before they write it—who it's for, how it supports the business, and how it can lead to reviews, referrals, and revenue. When your book is aligned with your goals from the start, it becomes a powerful growth tool—not just a passion project. If you're in the early stages of your book journey and want to make sure you're on the right path, let's talk. Schedule a complimentary 30-minute book brainstorming session to learn more about The Author ROI Lab, a small-group experience designed to help you clarify your concept, define your goals, and build a roadmap for long-term impact.

Gerber is bringing back its annual baby photo contest!
On today's daily comedy show, we bravely tackle one of society's most sensitive topics: not every baby is cute. There, we said it. Inspired by the newly announced Gerber “Behind the Baby” photo search (yes, it's back and yes, parents now get included), the gang debates the real question — do “ugly” babies actually grow up hotter? Is there a cosmic trade-off system? And should Gerber lean all the way in and create an “Ugly Baby Line” just for the laughs? We're asking the real parenting questions here.The 2026 Gerber Baby contest is officially open, offering $50,000 for ages 0–3 and $10,000 for ages 3–5. You just need one photo and a 200-word story about your kid's “everyday victories.” Simple. Unless your baby peaked at three weeks old and now looks like a tiny angry accountant. Then what? We break down the new twist, the stage-parent energy, and why shaped heads apparently matter more than anything.Then it's time for Simpleton Trivia — aka 45 seconds of public humiliation. Listeners can either answer 10 rapid-fire questions themselves or gamble on Moon, King Scott, or Jamie pulling it off without spiraling into chaos. Spoiler: thermostats are not thermometers. Chloroform is not what plants breathe. And Madonna being called the “Queen of Pop” caused way more tension than expected.We run through baseball questions, St. Louis pride, rock trivia, Harry Potter, sports, and enough pop culture curveballs to make everyone sweat. Some callers bet for the guys. Some bet against. Some sound like they're about to cry on live radio. It's beautiful.We also celebrate a buffet of random March 3rd holidays — National Cold Cuts Day, National Canadian Bacon Day (which Canadians insist is just ham), Soup It Forward Day, and the deeply terrifying “What If Cats and Dogs Had Opposable Thumbs Day.” Because nothing says a responsible daily comedy show like imagining your dog opening cabinets.And of course, we wrap by debating the greatest TV show of all time (Breaking Bad? The Wire? Fight about it in the comments) before pivoting into which U.S. state is the fittest — because we like to emotionally damage multiple demographics per episode.It's celebrity gossip, weird news energy, trivia chaos, Saint Louis pride, and pure Rizz Show nonsense — exactly what you expect from a daily comedy show that refuses to take itself too seriously.Laugh with us. Roast us. Bet against us. Just don't submit your baby unless you're emotionally prepared.Follow The Rizzuto Show → https://linktr.ee/rizzshow for more from your favorite daily comedy show.Connect with The Rizzuto Show Comedy Podcast online → https://1057thepoint.com/RizzShow.Hear The Rizz Show daily on the radio at 105.7 The Point | Hubbard Radio in St. Louis, MO.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.
Welcome back to your favorite daily comedy show, where we ask the hard-hitting questions like: Are all babies actually cute… or are we just lying to each other?Today's episode kicks off with a bold (and possibly career-ending) debate about ugly babies. Yes, we said it. Not every newborn looks like a Gerber model. Some look like tiny old men. Some look like they're mad at taxes. But as Moon wisely points out, the “ugly” ones sometimes grow up to be absolute stunners. It's science. Probably.Speaking of Gerber — the 2026 Gerber Baby Photo Search is officially back with a twist. This year it's not just about the baby's cute little face. Now they want to celebrate the parents too. Which raises the question: are we entering babies… or is this a LinkedIn networking event with bibs? There's $50,000 on the line for the little ones, so yes, stage parents, this is your Super Bowl.Then we roll into a full-blown Simpleton Trivia showdown — rapid-fire questions, 45 seconds, and just enough pressure to make grown adults forget what a rectangle looks like. Moon goes on a heater. Scott debates whether a thermostat counts as a thermometer. Jamie… well… chlorophyll had a moment. It's chaotic, competitive, and exactly what makes this daily comedy show such a disaster in the best possible way.We also dive into Jamie's over-the-top Nashville engagement story — complete with live band coordination, Tennessee Whiskey, a perfectly timed Hardy song, confetti cannons, and enough romance to make the rest of us question our own proposals. Meanwhile, Rizz prepares for his 20th anniversary and quietly wonders if he should've added lasers.There's coffee spills that rival environmental disasters. There's vacation planning to Mexico with full swim-up bar strategy. There's grown adults arguing over muffin timing. It's everything you want from a daily comedy show that thrives on real-life chaos, questionable takes, and a whole lot of laughter.This is The Rizzuto Show. It's messy. It's sarcastic. It's weirdly heartfelt. And somehow… it works.Follow The Rizzuto Show → linktr.ee/rizzshow for more from your favorite daily comedy show.Connect with The Rizzuto Show Comedy Podcast online → 1057thepoint.com/RizzShow.Hear The Rizz Show daily on the radio at 105.7 The Point | Hubbard Radio in St. Louis, MO.NC mom who vanished 25 years ago arrested — just days after family learned she was aliveDog causes crash on I-270 south; several injuredFamily awarded $241 million in Prairie Farms dry ice death caseAmerican runner Jessica McClain speaks out after bizarre mishap costs her first place: 'Truly sucks'Corporate worker's toilet horror story sparks grim debate: ‘Situation is f–ked'Bo Gritz, Green Beret Who Inspired Sylvester Stallone's 'Rambo', Dead at 87Calling all cute babies!
