Antares is a rare star. It’s one of the few named for what it’s not. The name is Greek. It combines “anti,” which means “against” or “opposed to” – with Ares – the Greek version of Mars, the god of war. So the name means “not Mars” or “rival of Mars.” It was given the name because its color is similar to that of Mars – bright orange. The color indicates that the surface of Antares is thousands of degrees cooler than the surface of the Sun. Cooler stars glow red or orange, while hotter stars are white or blue. Antares is one of many designations for the star. Because it’s the brightest star of Scorpius, it’s also known as Alpha Scorpii. And it’s also called the heart of the scorpion – Cor Scorpii. Antares also has designations in many catalogs – lists of stars that have something in common. It’s in the bright-star catalog as HR 6134. It has a companion star, so it’s in the binary-star catalog. And it’s in several catalogs of objects that produce a lot of infrared light. In all, Antares has dozens of names and catalog numbers – an impressive list for an impressive star. The gibbous Moon slips past Antares the next couple of mornings. The star will be to the left or lower left of the Moon at dawn tomorrow. And it will stand a little closer to the upper right of the Moon on Wednesday. Tomorrow: more stars for the Pleiades. Script by Damond Benningfield

They call him the God of War. So how did TW Mock, with tens of billions in assets, earn that title? General Robert H. Barrow said it best: "Amateurs talk about tactics, but professionals study logistics".TW built an empire around this mantra: Control the logistics, control the outcome. From walking into Iraq with no government contract and just $25,000 to building global logistics, intelligence, and recovery operations, TW shares how supply chains, resupply, and information dominance shape outcomes in war zones, disaster response, and geopolitics. That's how you win wars without ever pulling a trigger.Learn more about TAD Recovery: https://tadrecovery.comLearn More About The Resilient Project: https://liveresilientproject.comSUBSCRIBE so you don't miss Part 2 where TW Mock returns to discuss crash site recovery, advanced technologies, and evidence of non-human intelligence:  @ResilientShow  Stay up-to-date with all things Resilient by subscribing to our Resilient Times Newsletter: ⁠https://resilienttimes.substack.com⁠RESILIENT:Follow Us On Patreon: ⁠⁠https://patreon.com/theresilientshow⁠Follow Us On Instagram: ⁠⁠https://www.instagram.com/resilientshow⁠Follow Us On Twitter:⁠ ⁠⁠https://twitter.com/resilientshow⁠Follow Us On TikTok:⁠ ⁠⁠https://www.tiktok.com/@resilientshow⁠LIVE RESILIENT STORE: ⁠https://shop.theresilientshow.com⁠ Follow Chad: ⁠⁠⁠https://www.instagram.com/chadrobo_official⁠⁠https://x.com/ChadRobo⁠SPONSORS:GoldCo https://chadlikesgold.comSmith & Wesson: ⁠⁠⁠https://www.smith-wesson.com⁠⁠⁠Vortex Optics: ⁠⁠https://vortexoptics.com⁠⁠Gatorz Eyewear: ⁠⁠⁠https://www.gatorz.com⁠⁠⁠Allied Wealth: ⁠⁠https://alliedwealth.com⁠⁠BioPro+: ⁠⁠⁠https://www.bioproteintech.com/CHAD30⁠⁠⁠BioXCellerator: ⁠⁠https://www.bioxcellerator.com⁠⁠SLNT: ⁠https://slnt.com⁠------The Resilient Show is a proud supporter of military and first responder communities in partnership with ⁠⁠Mighty Oaks Foundation⁠⁠.

Show Notes On this week's podcast, Dan and Kris board the SAG Cartoon Express once again! This time, they stopped at a particularly crummy episode of Super Mario World. Just how bad is a cartoon that accidentally swaps Mario and Luigi's color palates AND inexplicably makes a bunch of tiny Marios come out of a block? And why is Yoshi so annoying? Let's find out! Then, in Week Old News, Nintendo announces unreleased Virtual Boy games for Switch 2, the game industry seems to hate AI just as much as the rest of us, God of War finds its Zeus, and the Disney Afternoon finally gets Bonkers. Finally, in the Checkpoint, Kris finishes the excellent Adventure of Samsara, Dan bought a fancy coffee machine, watched Death of a Unicorn, and they both froze their butts off for the good of the show.

Host Sarah Posner examines Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth's escalating campaign to remake the Pentagon in the image of a militant, hyper-masculine Christian nationalism—from dismantling small-business contracting as “DEI,” to purging diversity programs, hosting monthly Christian prayer meetings inside the Pentagon, and framing U.S. military power as divinely sanctioned. As Trump rattles the global order with threats against NATO allies and Greenland, Posner traces how Hegseth's theology and politics blur the lines among biblical law, domestic authority, and international norms—raising urgent questions about religion, war, and state power. Posner is joined by Dr. Julie Ingersoll, professor of Religious Studies at the University of North Florida and author of Building God's Kingdom, for a deep dive into the radical Christian Reconstructionist movement shaping Hegseth's worldview. They unpack the influence of Doug Wilson and the Communion of Reformed Evangelical Churches, including beliefs about biblical law, patriarchy, Christian dominion, and a “God of war” theology that legitimizes violence and conquest. The conversation explores how once-fringe theocratic ideas have quietly moved into the corridors of power—and what it means when U.S. military leaders see themselves as carrying out God's will, at home and abroad. Julie Ingersoll is Professor of Religious Studies at the University of North Florida in Jacksonville, where she teaches and writes about religion in American culture, with a particular focus on religion and politics and the religious right. Originally from Maine, she earned a Ph.D. in Religious Studies from the University of California, Santa Barbara, along with degrees in history from George Washington University and political science from Rutgers College. She began studying religion as an undergraduate because of her interest in politics, which she saw as deeply intertwined with religious life—an understanding that only deepened as her studies continued.

Finally, we look at the meta-fantasy world of the new Masters of the Universe film and share our latest HBO watchlist recommendations including Hacks and The Pit. Timestamps and Topics 00:00:00 – Intro, Question of the Week: Rebels in fiction we cheer for . 00:04:23 – Quick real-life check-in and keeping it together through a stressful news cycle . 00:05:08 – Star Wars: Maul: Shadow Lord trailer reaction and what the POV shift could mean . 00:11:13 – Masters of the Universe trailer talk, Jared Leto as Skeletor, tone, and first impressions . 00:16:29 – God of War series update: Cast talk, what fans should expect, and where the show could land. 00:22:05 – Fable showcase reaction: Humor, vibe, and why this reboot could work. 00:26:48 – Marvel's Wonder Man spotlight: Who he is, why he matters, and what the show might be going for. 00:39:58 – Release-week plan for Wonder Man and quick network updates. 00:42:48 – Weekly recommendations: Starfleet Academy, Hacks, and The Pit. 00:45:06 – Wrap-up. Key Takeaways Effective Rebellion: Jonathan argues that "The Dawn" from The Handmaid's Tale is a superior rebel group due to their infiltration tactics, whereas the Maquis were too easily dismantled. The Maul Evolution: The upcoming Shadow Lord series aims for a darker, "Rated R" feel, focusing on Maul's pursuit of freedom through the criminal underworld rather than the Jedi/Sith binary. Critique of the Jedi: The hosts discuss how the Jedi Order often pursued "control" under the guise of "balance," making Maul's perspective more relatable to some viewers. Embracing the Vibrant: Unlike many "dark and gritty" reboots, the new Masters of the Universe is leaning into the colorful, fun, and meta aspects of the original 80s property. Memorable Quotes "When did we vote for the Empire? Why did we end up this way?" – Frank "The Dawn... they are so well embedded. They're very sneaky." – Jonathan "The Jedi Order is not perfect either... the balance they were pursuing was not balance. It was control." – Jonathan "Justice comes at the tip of a lightsaber." – Frank Call to Action If you enjoyed this deep dive, please subscribe and leave us a review on your favorite podcast platform!

Avec le 1er régiment de parachutistes d'infanterie de marine de Bayonne, il remplit pendant 5 ans des missions d'anti-terrorisme, de libération d'otages et de protection de personnalités sur des théâtres de guerre.Ces années le forgent, lui apprennent la rigueur, la discipline et la recherche d'excellence. Trois qualités sur lesquelles il s'appuiera quand il prend la décision de quitter l'armée pour se donner une chance d'exceller dans son sport : le MMA.Il se laisse alors 2 ans pour tenter d'en vivre, mais ne met que quelques mois pour gagner ses premiers combats amateurs et arriver à pleine vitesse sur le circuit professionnel.S'ensuit une série de victoires qui le propulse à l'UFC (Ultimate Fighting Championship), la plus prestigieuse organisation de MMA au monde.Malgré 2 défaites, celui que le public appelle désormais “God of War” entre rapidement dans le top 10 et peut aujourd'hui rêver de combattre un jour pour la ceinture de sa catégorie.Dans cet épisode exceptionnel Benoît Saint Denis se livre sur :Les 5 années de forces spéciales qui ont fait naître “God of War”Ce que personne ne dit jamais sur les primes à plusieurs millionsLes pertes de poids drastiques (perdre 5 kilos en 12 heures)Comment faire cohabiter sa foi et la violence de sa disciplinePourquoi personne ne parle de bien-être en sports de combatUn échange fort, avec un homme franc, pour mieux comprendre la vie des combattants de haut niveau, leurs doutes et leur détermination — et apprendre comment se mettre en marche vers de grands objectifs.Vous pouvez suivre Benoît sur Instagram.Il y a 40% de réduction pour le lancement de BSD Method et le code “DOIT” vous donne 20% de réduction supplémentaires donc foncez, il n'y aura plus de meilleur timing.TIMELINE:00:00:00 : Les catégories stars en MMA00:10:33 : 5 ans d'armée qui ont forgé Benoît00:19:27 : Rejoindre les forces spéciales à 17 ans00:30:08 : “Les premiers mois de ma carrière, j'avais une vie de moine guerrier”00:37:55 : Entrer dans un octogone pour la première fois00:46:33 : Par où commencer pour faire du MMA ?00:55:20 : Pourquoi un spécialiste peut battre un combattant complet01:04:23 : Le protocole minutieux avant chaque combat01:13:32 : Comment un combat peut basculer en quelques dixièmes de seconde01:22:33 : La place du show dans le MMA01:33:33 : Combien gagne vraiment un combattant de l'UFC ?01:45:41 : Perdre 5 kilos en 12 heures01:53:38 : La noblesse de l'affrontement à mains nues02:02:30 : “J'ai envie que tous ceux que j'embarque soient heureux”Les anciens épisodes de GDIY mentionnés : #502 - Thomas Sammut - Préparateur Mental - Faut-il forcément souffrir pour réussir ?#479 - Nikola Karabatic - Champion de Handball - 22 titres sur 23 : la légende du sport françaisNous avons parlé de :UFC de Paris Bercy1er régiment de parachutistes d'infanterie de marineVenumLe premier combat de BSD à l'UFC et aussi sa première défaiteBSD vs MoicanoZelimkhan Khadjiev, lutteur français avec qui Benoît s'entraîneLe KO en 16 secondes de Benoît sur Beneil DariushBSD MethodThe Last DanceLes recommandations de lecture :Les récits chevaleresques de LancelotLe colonel Chabert - Honoré de BalzacL'homme qui plantait des arbres - Jean GionoVous souhaitez sponsoriser Génération Do It Yourself ou nous proposer un partenariat ?Contactez mon label Orso Media via ce formulaire.Hébergé par Audiomeans.

This week we look back at the 2010's Clash of the Titans, starring Sam Worthington, Ralph Fiennes, and Liam Neeson. This contentious remake of the 1981 Ray Harryhausen classic sparked a lot of debate upon release with fans of the original film, but found its own audience with a younger generation that grew up playing God of War games on Playstation.

Well Star Wars fans can continue to argue, because Kathleen Kennedy stepping down certainly wont stop them. But something to stop to listen to, is George RR Martin telling all to the Hollywood Reporter. Plus, Fallout Season 2 is not falling behind season 1, people just don't remember how TV works. Ubisoft decided to lay a big one on the gaming industry by cancelling another Prince of Persia game, and Netflix wants to keep WB movies on the big screen if the merger goes through. That and more on this weeks episode.

Last week Lucasfilm announced that Kathleen Kennedy is stepping down from her role as studio president, a position she has held since Disney's 2012 acquisition. Succeeding her are George Lucas' protégé and Ahsoka creator Dave Filoni, who will oversee the franchise's creative direction as co-president alongside former Lucasfilm General Manager Lynwen Brennan handling the business side of things. Kennedy still has an active hand as an executive producer of both Star War's next theatrical offerings: May's The Mandalorian & Grogu as well as 2027's Starfighter and will continue to produce other projects independently. Kennedy's tenure saw its fair share of highs and lows, especially contending with an often fickle fandom, but with multibillion dollar films under her belt her exit marks the end of an era.It was a surprisingly noteworthy MLK weekend box office– outside of Avatar: Fire & Ash's continuing reign, Marty Supreme became A24's top-performing film of all time with 80 million dollars domestically, surpassing Everything Everywhere All at Once, while Zootopia 2 became the highest-grossing animated film of all time globally with over 1.7 billion dollars, passing Inside Out 2. Meanwhile, Nia DaCosta's 28 Years Later: The Bone Temple opened below expectations with just 15 million dollars over the four-day weekend, falling well short of the 30-million-dollar debut of its predecessor and behind tracking projections of 20 million dollars. Despite the horror sequel's muted debut, it's been an unusually robust box office this January.Netflix has revised its $83 billion dollar deal for Warner Bros. Discovery to an all-cash transaction valued at $27.75 dollars per share, simplifying the structure to provide greater certainty of value for shareholders and accelerate the path to a shareholder vote by April. The amended deal, unanimously approved by both boards, maintains the same per-share valuation while WBD stockholders will still receive additional value from shares of Discovery Global following its spinoff, with Netflix financing the deal through cash on hand, credit facilities and committed financing. This update comes on the heels of Netflix co-CEO Ted Sarandos' renewed promise to keep WB studio films in theaters for at least 45 days before hitting streaming.Prime Video has released a first look photo of Sophie Turner as Lara Croft in the upcoming Tomb Raider series, which has begun production.Hans Zimmer, who has scored more than 500 movies and TV projects, will officially score the upcoming Harry Potter series for HBO Max in partnership with Bleeding Fingers Music, a composer collective that he co-founded.Sons of Anarchy star Ryan Hurst has been cast as main character Kratos in Amazon's upcoming God of War series, which is currently confirmed for two seasons and has begun pre-production. Teresa Palmer was also cast last week and will play Sif, Thor's wife and the goddess of family.Cate Blanchett has signed a deal to reprise her role as Viking warrior Valka in Universal Pictures' live-action How to Train Your Dragon 2.Warner Bros. has set Jorge R. Gutiérrez to direct an animated feature centering on the classic Looney Tunes character Speedy Gonzales, The Hollywood Reporter has exclusively learned.

Normally the guys talk Marvel, DC, Stranger Things, etc. but today they venture over to the medical drama side of pop culture to talk about the first 2 episodes of The Pitt. Find out what the guys think of Dr. Al-Hashimi's coming in looking to change, the drawbacks of the AI direction, Dr. Robby's management style, Mel's dilemma, the superb writing, connections from season 1, Dr. Whitaker taking a step forward, Dr. Javadi vs Ogilvie, those maggots, and much more! The guys also discuss a bit about Fallout Season 2 so far and Ryan Hurst being cast as Kratos for the live action God of War series on Prime. Plus, Michael gives some brief thoughts on the first episode of A Knight of the Seven Kingdoms. Follow Jong and Michael on social media.  Bluesky: @one-punch.bsky.social & @producermike975.bsky.socialThreads: @producermike975Instagram: @onepunch______ & @producermike975Rate, review, like, and/or subscribe to Comicast on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, Castbox, Goodpods, Podcast Addicts, or wherever you get your podcasts!  

This week on The Gaming Duo, we go all-in on Capcom's explosive Resident Evil 9: Requiem showcase and what it means for the future of the franchise. From Leon's brutal new combat style and dynamic stealth gameplay to unsettling zombies with human personalities and a mysterious scar that could change everything, we break down the biggest reveals and ask: could this be the best Resident Evil yet?We also react to reports of a Resident Evil: Code Veronica remake, discuss major casting news with Ryan Hurst stepping into the role of Kratos for Amazon's God of War series and Sophie Turner becoming the new Lara Croft in Tomb Raider, and cover the surprising shutdown of Amazon's MMO New World. Plus, we break down the newly revealed Lego Ocarina of Time set.Discord Link: https://discord.gg/B7YYMvZtZ2

As PlayStation's aggressive pursuit of crossmedia success continues, we have a new piece of news worth considering in the form of the casting of Kratos in Amazon's upcoming God of War series. 6'6" American actor Ryan Hurst has won the coveted role, joining notable writers, directors, and a famous showrunner to make what could very well be Sony's most promising TV property yet. We discuss. Plus: A notorious developer known for more than a thousand asset flip-slash-Trophy farming games has all of its titles removed from the PSN, compelling evidence circulates that 2016's The Division is getting a Definitive Edition on PS5 somewhat imminently, Xbox's Fable joins Avowed as yet another game slated for Sony's console, Call of Duty sales purportedly plummet 60% year-over-year, and more. Then: Listener inquiries! With Colin only a few Platinums away from 200, is there any game he's specifically targeting for the milestone? Following the closure of Meta's largest VR studios, is the pursuit of virtual reality in games officially dead? Could Sea of Thieves be the actual, original extraction shooter (for lack of a better term)? Do we anticipate we'll ever win the Golden Globe for Best Podcast?

The movie world just got its own Barbenheimer moment — and this time it's Dune vs Marvel. On today's episode of The Kristian Harloff Show, Kristian Harloff and the crew break down the internet-breaking DUNESDAY showdown as Dune: Part Three and Avengers: Doomsday appear headed for a massive box-office collision. With Timothée Chalamet and Robert Downey Jr. both breaking their silence on the hype, we analyze what this head-to-head really means for Hollywood. Can Denis Villeneuve's epic sci-fi saga go toe-to-toe with the MCU's biggest event since Endgame, or will Avengers: Doomsday dominate theaters worldwide? We also unpack how the Avengers directors are positioning the latest sneak peeks as clues, not teasers or trailers, and what that might mean for the future of the MCU. In other entertainment news, Scott Cooper is setting his sights on a dramatic take on the Roswell UFO incident, promising a new spectacle in sci-fi cinema.
