Adam Harstad and Matt Waldman reprise their season-long RSP Film & Theory podcast with a discussion about redraft and dynasty concepts.  There are a lot of excellent writers and analysts in the fantasy industry. There are few that I hold in as high a regard as Adam (and not surprising he earned the FSWA's Fantasy Writer of the Year). He's a forthright human being with a tremendous intellect whose approach to analysis in this space differs from most. He's also an excellent fantasy GM in re-draft and dynasty formats.  Adam spends a lot of time examining results and dealing with broad themes of decision-making that help us become better fantasy players and fantasy analysts. https://youtu.be/KPNdNKV7LPc Topics What you measure, you value: Charles Goodhart's theory and how that works to our detriment in sports and life.

Shoot us a Text.Episode #1167: GM kills its creative EV tax credit plan while Ford plays coy, the Chevy Bolt returns faster and cheaper than ever, and three Nissan dealers take their high-mileage heroes on a 1,500-mile proving ground through the American West.General Motors has scrapped a short-lived plan that would have allowed dealers to keep offering a $7,500 federal EV lease credit after the subsidy expired on September 30. The move follows political pushback and dealer uncertainty around compliance.GM's plan involved having GM Financial buy EVs from dealer inventory, claim the federal credit, and pass the savings into leases through the end of 2024.GM had already begun funding incentives on about 20,000 EVs, with 5% down payments made on those vehicles prior to September 30.The program was meant to help dealers avoid being stuck with higher-priced EVs post-credit, but Senator Bernie Moreno (R-OH), a former dealer, objected to the move, calling it an overreach beyond the law's expiration. GM ended the plan shortly after.Ford rolled out a similar workaround ahead of the credit's expiration but has declined to confirm whether it plans to continue offering the lease incentives.At a “Bolt Block Party” at Universal Studios Hollywood, GM has officially reintroduced the Chevy Bolt, its beloved affordable EV.The new Bolt gains GM's Ultium 65kWh LFP battery for faster charging, improved range, and bidirectional home power support.Charging now jumps to 150kW (10–80% in 26 minutes) — triple the previous speed — with 255 miles of range and Tesla's NACS port for Supercharger access.The interior gets a bigger screen, refreshed materials and GM's SuperCruise driver assist with lane-changing “route following.”Pricing starts at just under $29K, making it the cheapest announced EV in the U.S., with production starting in early 2026.The only controversy? No more Apple CarPlay or Android Auto — GM is betting on its new in-house infotainment instead.Three Nissan dealers traded in their desks for desert dust, road-tripping 1,500 miles across the American West in three used Nissans — all over 100K miles and under $10K — to prove the brand's reliability and shake up customer perceptions.The “Tour Detour” YouTube series follows the group's off-road trek through salt flats, canyons, dunes, and mountain passes in two Muranos and a Juke.Dealers Tim Pohanka, Chris Lenckosz, and Jason Cole financed and drove the cars themselves, documenting every gritty mile.The goal: to challenge Nissan's reputation around “continuously variable transmissions” durability and show that even high-mileage models can take a beating.“We bought the cars ourselves and pushed them through the toughest roads in the West,” said Pohanka. “We wanted them to earn our trust — and our customeJoin Paul J Daly and Kyle Mountsier every morning for the Automotive State of the Union podcast as they connect the dots across car dealerships, retail trends, emerging tech like AI, and cultural shifts—bringing clarity, speed, and people-first insight to automotive leaders navigating a rapidly changing industry.Get the Daily Push Back email at https://www.asotu.com/ JOIN the conversation on LinkedIn at: https://www.linkedin.com/company/asotu/

In hour two, a coaching & GM change is needed but who gets fired first? Does the order matter? Missing the 2023 Dolphins season so much. Plus, Oronde Gadsden joins the show to tell us how he's feeling ahead of OG II playing as a Charger in Miami on Sunday.

Sharing is caring!...but when you overshare with your managers it can easily be the opposite. You have a lot on your mind and often not a lot of people to share it with. The closest person is most often the manager or GM and they "get" to hear all about your plans, hopes, crazy ideas etc. Feels good for you, but for them it can be a huge burden that distracts them from their main work. Today on Shift Break we will be talking about why oversharing is a trap that should be avoided and what your discourse and relationship to your management team should look like to avoid burnout, overwhelm, distraction, and confusion.  Toxic Vulnerability : Barista care, leadership, vulnerability, thoughtful management, coffee culture, coffee family , professionalism

Norm Hitzges is wondering — and not quietly — how the Texas Rangers went from World Series champs to looking like they misplaced their offense in a junk drawer.In this episode, Norm breaks down the mess General Manager Chris Young finds himself in: a team that can pitch but can't hit, an owner allergic to the luxury tax, and a farm system that's about as fertile as a parking lot. He calls it “the box,” and Chris Young is stuck squarely inside it, armed with little more than duct tape, prayer, and a spreadsheet labeled “2026: Good Luck.”Norm walks through the impossible math of building a contender without money, prospects, or trade bait — and still finds time to hype a Mavericks rookie who might be the best thing to hit Dallas since Luka's step-back three. It's classic Norm: sharp, funny, a little grumpy, and all truth.⏱️ Chapters: 00:00 - The General Manager in the Box (And No, There's No Key)01:22 - Luxury Tax or Luxury Trap?02:49 - How to Go 81–81 With the Best Pitching in Baseball03:35 - Six Players, $144 Million, and No Room Left for Snacks05:30 - The Farm System: Where Hope Goes to Retire07:05 - Trade Season: Who's Buying This Junk Drawer?08:36 - Two Holes, One Rotation, and a Whole Lot of “Good Luck”09:26 - If Chris Young Pulls This Off, Just Hand Him the GM of the Year Trophy12:18 - Super Cooper: The Mavs Rookie Who Might Save Dallas Sports13:49 - A 6'8” Point Guard and a Glimmer of Hope14:46 - Don't Stop Believing (Unless You're the Rangers' Payroll Department) Check us out: patreon.com/sunsetloungedfwInstagram: sunsetloungedfwTiktok: sunsetloungedfwX: SunsetLoungeDFWFB: Sunset Lounge DFW

Send us a textThe best story in town isn't a viral ace or a new driver—it's a public course quietly fixing the stuff that actually changes your round. Recently Matt met with The Legacy's GM and dug into water constraints, smarter irrigation, fragile overseed choices, and why this winter's promise is simple and rare: smooth greens you can trust. No spin, no sizzle reel—just the mechanics of better golf, explained in plain language you'll feel when your putt holds its line.From there, we widen the lens. Revere Golf Club: Lexington is lush, Concord's back, and October in Vegas is elite golf weather—fast mornings, crisp evenings, and two events on the calendar. We break down our night skins at Cloud Nine, why we refunded the pot for fairness, and how those small decisions keep the scene honest. We also pull back the curtain on gear: how a 70g graphite iron shaft unlocked higher launch and softer landings, why speed-only fittings miss the point, and what tools to buy first if you're getting into club building at home.Community is the throughline. CDP Premium is live for deeper cuts and after-hours riffs. Our listener-powered Vegas rankings app is coming, so you can grade every course with the same scorecard we use—then challenge our list with data. We spotlight the returning Skins Game, the real pulse behind TGL talk, and the rising buzz around Rodeo Dunes, including how last year's charity auction raised over $100K for a cause that matters. If you love golf beyond the highlight reel—if you care about surfaces, setups, fittings, and the people who show up—you'll feel at home here.Subscribe, drop a review, and share this with your golf group. Then tell us: would you take smooth greens over fast ones this month?Support the showSpecial thank goes out to our show sponsors:

Susan and Debbie talk about buying basics, budget brass tacks, and booking blend.

From game mechanics like hacking to moral dilemmas about science gone wrong, it's a story that will leave listeners laughing nervously... and double-checking their insurance policies.

Woof.  This one got out of hand very early for the #chicagocubs.  The #milwaukeebrewers tagged #matthewboyd in the 1st inning, eventually scoring 6 runs and knocking Boyd from the game.  The scoring continued, and by the end of the 2nd inning, the #brewers held a 9-1 lead.  #kap, #guff and Gordon Wittenmyer break down what went wrong and why, no matter how ugly it was in Gm. 1 of the #NLDS, the #cubs just have to flush this one and move onto Game 2 on Monday night.#takethat___________________________

Have you ever noticed that in real life, you can't just say, “I take a long rest” and wake up eight hours later fully healed, your fridge restocked, and your inbox cleared? If only. Instead, you wake up groggy, your cat's screaming, and somehow your wizard spell slots are still gone. Well, tabletop RPGs aren't much better. Pacing and rest mechanics are the part of D&D, Pathfinder, and other RPGs where your party argues for 30 minutes about whether to camp in the murder dungeon, or limp back to town because someone stubbed their toe. And let's be honest—no one wants to play the “Five Minute Adventuring Day” where your heroes spend more time napping than actually adventuring. In this episode, we're tackling the eternal question: how do you keep the action exciting without turning your campaign into a sleep study? Listen to RPGBOT.Podcast on YouTube Before we dive in—did you know the RPGBOT.Podcast has a massive archive of episodes now available on YouTube? Whether you missed our deep dives on D&D subclasses, Pathfinder tactics, Stormlight Archive RPGs, or Spooktober monstrosities, or you just want to binge the chaos from the beginning, the archive's got you covered. Hit up YouTube.com/@RPGBOT and subscribe so you never miss an old favorite—or a new disaster. Show Notes Every Dungeon Master, Game Master, and table of players eventually wrestles with one of the most elusive beasts in tabletop RPGs: pacing. How do you keep the story moving, the tension high, and the action balanced—while still letting your players rest their weary hit points and spell slots? In this remastered episode of the RPGBOT.Podcast, Tyler, Randall, and Ash dive into pacing and rest mechanics in tabletop RPGs, exploring how rules like short rests and long rests in Dungeons & Dragons, or Encounter Mode vs Exploration Mode in Pathfinder 2e, shape the tempo of campaigns. We'll dig into the ways pacing affects encounter design, narrative arcs, and character development, and how rest mechanics in Pathfinder and D&D can make or break the flow of the game. From gritty survival pacing where every rest is a gamble, to fast-paced cinematic RPG storytelling where players hardly stop to breathe, we cover strategies for keeping your table engaged without letting fatigue—or rules confusion—drag the campaign to a crawl. If you've ever asked yourself: “How many encounters should happen before a long rest in D&D?” “How do I keep players from spamming the five-minute adventuring day?” “What's the balance between story pacing and resource management?” …this episode has you covered. Whether you're a seasoned DM running epic campaigns in D&D 5e, a Pathfinder 2e GM wrangling Encounter Mode pacing, or just curious how to keep your RPG sessions balanced and fun, this discussion will give you tools, laughs, and maybe a little existential dread about resting in real life. Key Takeaways Pacing is everything: The tempo of encounters, story beats, and rests directly impacts campaign flow. Rest mechanics shape tension: Rules like short vs long rests in D&D or daily recovery in Pathfinder 2e can either encourage resource management or invite “rest spamming.” Encounter pacing drives drama: How many encounters players face before resting sets the stakes—whether it feels like a survival grind or a cinematic sprint. Balance mechanics with story: Great pacing blends mechanical tension (hit points, spell slots, conditions) with narrative urgency (villains, clocks, or looming disasters). The 5-minute adventuring day problem is real: Creative pacing strategies help DMs push beyond it. Different RPG systems, different solutions: What works for D&D pacing may not work for Pathfinder rest mechanics or other TTRPGs—adapt to your system. Player expectations matter: Some groups love slow-burn exploration, others want fast action. Pacing tools let you tune the campaign to your table. Stop Pirating PDFs and Buy Your GM a Sandwich Tabletop RPGs don't just fall out of the sky like loot drops—they're created by real human beings who need to pay rent, eat food, and occasionally buy dice they don't actually need. If you love D&D, Pathfinder, or any of the countless indie RPGs out there, do the right thing: support the developers who make them. Buy the books. Back the Kickstarters. Leave glowing reviews. Tell your friends about the cool stuff you've found. And yes—buy your GM a sandwich once in a while. Because without these hardworking designers and storytellers, we'd all still be pretending that Monopoly is a roleplaying game. Welcome to the RPGBOT Podcast.

En el episodio de hoy de VG Daily, Andre Dos Santos y Juan Manuel de los Reyes analizan primero los números de ventas de vehículos en Estados Unidos y el mundo. Tesla sorprendió al mercado con entregas muy por encima de lo esperado, mientras que GM y Ford reportaron crecimientos sólidos impulsados por sus modelos eléctricos e híbridos. En contraste, BYD sorprendió con un retroceso poco usual en sus ventas. Más allá de los resultados puntuales, los hosts subrayan un cambio estructural.En la segunda parte, el foco se traslada al mercado laboral de recién graduados. Con datos de CNBC y otros reportes, se pone en evidencia que los jóvenes con título universitario enfrentan la tasa de desempleo más alta en casi una década y un mercado poco dinámico, caracterizado por pocas contrataciones y escasas renuncias.

Dealers say volume could dip at first, but manufacturers are adjusting incentives, production, and lease programs while retailers recalibrate inventory and ordering strategies.Ford CEO Jim Farley said he “wouldn't be surprised” if EV sales fall by half without the federal incentive.Like we covered a couple of days ago, GM and Ford are extending the lease credit through creative captive finance workarounds, while Hyundai is offering a $7,500 cash incentive on the 2025 Ioniq 5 and plans to cut 2026 model prices by up to $9,800.Dealer Andy Guelcher says “It was time for this to go away, and I think that [EVs] can stand on their own,” but he expects some near-term demand bumps.“Nobody wants to be in a position where we're stuck with a lot of inventory that's not moving,” said Dealer Ken Ganley.Hertz is going all-in on digital retail, launching a new e-commerce platform that lets customers browse, finance, and purchase used cars entirely online, positioning retail as its primary sales channel, according to CEO Gil West.The new HertzCarSales.com site has evolved from a catalog into a full-service e-commerce platform.The move builds on Hertz's August partnership with Amazon Autos, now covering all 45 Hertz Car Sales locations.Hertz has also expanded its Rent2Buy program to more than 100 cities, giving shoppers extended test drives before committing.A national campaign with Tom Brady debuts this week, promoting the simplicity of buying a Hertz vehicle.CEO Gil West called it “a major step forward in modernizing how we serve our customers.”OpenAI is betting AI-powered video can win the race for user attention, announcing Sora 2, a new social-media app for its AI video generator. Sora 2 lets users create HD video clips with audio from text prompts and upload themselves into AI-generated worlds.The TikTok competitor will include vertical feeds, algorithm-driven recommendations, and safeguards against endless doomscrolling.0:00 Looking back at the history of More Than Cars2:00 Intro with Paul J Daly and Kyle Mountsier2:30 The Big More Than Cars Launch5:33 Upcoming ASOTU Edge Webinar with Uber For Business6:22 How Dealers and OEMs are Responding To The End of the EV Tax Credit10:01 Hertz Goes All In On Digital Car Sales12:Join Paul J Daly and Kyle Mountsier every morning for the Automotive State of the Union podcast as they connect the dots across car dealerships, retail trends, emerging tech like AI, and cultural shifts—bringing clarity, speed, and people-first insight to automotive leaders navigating a rapidly changing industry.Get the Daily Push Back email at https://www.asotu.com/ JOIN the conversation on LinkedIn at: https://www.linkedin.com/company/asotu/

In this episode, Mike, Paul, and Colleen discuss unnecessary maintenance, lean of peak, and flaming exhausts! Email podcasts@aopa.org for a chance to get on the show. Join the world's largest aviation community at aopa.org/join Full episode notes below: Mitchell has a Cessna 185 and he's wondering if it's smart to change out the rotocoils on his engine at some pre-determined point in order to avoid uneven heat patterns on his exhaust valves. Paul, despite having done this, advises him to borescope, and only change when he sees an uneven heat pattern. Since Mitchell already borescopes often, Paul thinks he'll catch a faulty rotocoil quickly. Mike suggests that Mitchell could hit the coil with a mallet and if it doesn't turn to change it. Regardless of the test or monitoring method Mitchell chooses, they agree it's unnecessary to change the springs pre-emptively. Doug has some questions about lean of peak. Specifically, he's wondering why his EGT spread is so large when his GAMI spread is only .2 gallons an hour. The hosts remind him that EGT only matters as a way to identify peak. Otherwise the relative and absolute numbers are meaningless. The big gap in EGT and CHT numbers often comes down to cooling inefficiencies, according to Mike. If the numbers indicated that the cylinders were making differential power, Doug would feel the engine roughness. So the hosts think he's doing just fine. Adam wants to know if he can use an automotive alternator in his Cessna 172 under the new VARMA policy. The policy allows for part substitutions when no aviation parts are commercially available. Since 172 alternators are available, he must use one of those. The hosts then discuss what makes an aviation alternator different from an automotive version since Cessna and Piper use GM and Ford alternators. Paul and Colleen focus on the brushes, which are different, and ours turn the opposite direction, which would require a different pully. Although they agree an owner could bring an aviation alternator to an automotive rebuild shop with aviation parts, they recommend against a straight automotive version. Mark has a Cherokee 235 and he likes to take videos of his flights in order to critique his skills. One one night flight he saw flames coming out of his exhaust, which he obviously found alarming. The hosts put his mind at ease, telling him it's a natural by-product of the combustion process, and simply represents the power his engine is making. But they dig further to find out two important points. First, Mark doesn't have a flame cone on his exhaust. If he did, the flames probably wouldn't be visible. And two, this only happens when he's lean of peak. This intrigues Mike because it's evidence of a slower combustion process that's known to happen during lean of peak. He surmises that because the process is longer, but the rpm consistent, combustion isn't complete when the valve opens, which is why Mark only sees the flame.

 Despite an impressive chess résumé as one of the U.S.'s top women players, Tatev Abrahamyan has had moments when she questioned whether it was all worth it. After a prolonged slump, she not only considered giving up on ever earning the International Master title, but she nearly quit competitive chess altogether. Fortunately, Tatev persevered. Earlier this year, she unexpectedly finished second in the Woman's American Cup, and then in August, she delivered a standout result that earned her the International Master title at age 37 — more than 10 years after achieving her final required norm!  Remarkably, Tatev's performance was so strong that she also secured her first GM norm.
