For the past few weeks, we've been working our way through a series we've titled, Gravity: Breaking Free From the Weight of Sin. We've covered a lot of ground... the way sin pulls at our hearts and minds, the difference between toxic and healthy shame, the things we trust more than God,  and the disordered desires that derail our lives.  This week, we're looking at what we're calling acceptable sins... those things that have so subtly slipped into our vocabularies and mindsets, that are so much a part of how we live, that we don't even really notice them anymore. But noticing and naming matters. Because if our goal is to become like Jesus, then we must first see where we're not, and then take the next step to being more like Him. Join us this Sunday at 11 AM as we begin our series on sin. You'll find us online by clicking the "Join Us Sunday" button on our website, or connect with us via our YouTube channel. Or come worship with us in person! Arrive early and enjoy coffee, cookies and conversation in the Lobby. We do know that 11 AM on Sunday doesn't work for everyone. If that's you, the service will be available on-demand, so you can watch at a time that works better for your schedule. We look forward to worshipping with you! ----------------------------------- TAKE YOUR NEXT STEP ----------------------------------- Let us know that you were watching with us and you will be entered to receive a free prize by completing our Connection Card: http://dsf.church/ecard   Give Online: https://www.simplechurchgiving.net/App/Giving/dsf Message Notes: https://www.dayspringfellowship.com/messages   Like, comment & subscribe to stay updated!   Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/dayspringkeizer Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/DayspringKeizer YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/dayspringfellowship Website: http://dsf.church   #dayspringkeizer #dayspringfellowship #2026sermon ___________________   Thanks for watching Dayspring Fellowship's worship service!

Three fixes for your indoor rowing technique faults. Timestamps 01:00 The unforgiving erg Interrupt the fault before it becomes a habit. Foot connection gets lost at the finish as your toes come away from the footstretcher. When you lose connection you aren't moving the boat forwards, same on the erg because the feet are the only connection to the boat. Take a $10 bank note and put it under the toes of the athlete - if they lose foot connection at the end of the drive, the money falls to the ground. Have a bet with your athlete - they can keep the money if it's still under their toes. The whole of the sole of your foot needs to stay pushing on the footstretcher at the finish. Try it separately for both feet. 04:00 Catch position Avoid over-compressing at the catch with knees going over your toes. Take a bungee cord or some electrical tape and wrap it around the rail so the seat wheel butts up to it at the correct catch position. The athlete will feel the wheels rolling over the tape - it acts as a gentle physical reminder to stop at the catch position. Check your catch position first using a mirror or a photo - get your shins vertical. Do some steady rowing to learn where your new compression limit is. 06:00 Slide control If you tend to pause at the catch, try this. On the erg the rail slopes downwards towards the footstretcher. Lift up the front leg of the rowing machine by 10-15 cms. Use a crate, an aerobics step or a big book. The incline means it's harder to rush forwards. Note if your catch alters when you change direction with the front leg raised. Gravity will tend to make you want to roll backwards away from the flywheel.

Australian rock legends The Superjesus are celebrating the 25th anniversary of their landmark sophomore album, Jet Age, with a national tour that kicks off in Brisbane tonight, June 5.Released in October 2000 through EastWest Records, Jet Age marked a massive creative and commercial evolution for the Adelaide-formed band. Following the gritty, raw, grunge-fuelled success of their 1998 debut album Sumo, The Superjesus faced heavy industry pressure and unexpected internal turmoil. This included the departure of founding guitarist and co-writer Chris Tennent.Rather than collapsing, frontwoman Sarah McLeod and bassist Stuart Rudd recruited new guitarist Tim Henwood. This lineup change completely transformed their musical direction. Moving away from the heavy distortion of the '90s grunge era, they embraced a more sophisticated, melodic "dark pop" and alternative power-rock aesthetic. The shift paid off brilliantly; Jet Age debuted and peaked at number 5 on the ARIA Albums Chart and officially reached Platinum status.The album delivered some of the most enduring rock anthems of the turn-of-the-millennium era. The soaring lead single Gravity became a definitive radio staple, landing at number 17 on the Triple J Hottest 100. Other massive tracks like Secret Agent Man and Enough To Know solidified their status as titans of the Australian live music circuit, a position where the band has remained to this day.HEAVY sat down with bass player Stuart Rudd to talk about the album and the history of The Superjesus, at one point asking about the emotional side of doing an album anniversary tour."Just going through the songs is kind of reawakening these tunes that have sat dormant for probably since we… some of them we actually haven't played live since we recorded them," he smiled. "So to reawaken some of these songs is fantastic, and it's sounding great. We're always keen on doing this sort of thing and touching back on the history. We think it's a great vibe all around, just connecting with the audiences."We reflect back on the pressures on The Superjesus when making Jet Age, particularly after the universal success of their debut album Sumo."We'd just come off the back of touring worldwide, so we had been on the road for 18 months," he recalled. "Maybe more. It was hard. I know touring sounds like a dream - and it is - however if you're sleep deprivated for 18 months it can be quite an insane experience. We came off the road, and it was time to write because we hadn't been writing on the road. We'd just been touring, touring, touring, so yeah, it was difficult. And it was one of those things where we lost a band member through all the touring and the pressures of the road. It was a real roll up the sleeves effort, and we moved to Melbourne on this one just to get out of the comfort zone and find a new guitarist, then start working the only way we knew how. The only way we knew from the inception of the band was to roll up our sleeves and get the work done, and that's what we did. We listen to the album now through rehearsals and touching back on it, and we're super proud it."In the full interview, Stuart talks more about Jet Age and the process behind it. We run through the album and his personal favourites, focusing on the live component and bringing the music to life. Stuart spoke about the history of The Superjesus and the pressures on the band following the massive success of Sumo, detailing how Jet Age had to be a step forward for the band and more.Tickets for the Jet Age 25th Anniversary Tour can be found here: https://www.thesuperjesus.com/Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/heavy-music-interviews--2687660/support.

I'm always in motion, but I'm not going anywhere. I'm still the opposite of Ben when I think about it. He's everywhere and all at once, and so busy, and the scurrying barely stops. I mean, I almost wonder if Ben is real when I stop to think about it. I never see him. I feel like I imagine I hear him as much as actually hearing him, but yeah, the proof of him was definitely on display for a time. And the echo of him sure seems real. I feel like he and I have worked a pretty good system on this place now too — he's probably more likely to be fully enjoying the run of the joint when I'm out. So I'm trying to go out more. But I also know I'm going nowhere very quickly.Bought a copy of Gravity's Rainbow from a secondhand store, and I take it with me most places. It's good. I mean, I am reading it, I do like it, I do get it, and all that. But it's also a book most people you meet have no fucking idea about, or the idea they have is it's too big for them, so I am able to bullshit about it with just about anyone. It's the Ulysses for Generation X. Basically. I must remember to tell a bunch of people that, and with the conviction that's my own idea too.Hannah was in my dream last night. And I've had the dream before. About once a week I'd say at present. I run to her at the tree. I get there in time, but I call her Anna, she shakes her head as if to say that's not her name, so the query cannot be for her. And I wake with her in the air, the rope around her neck. It's got me drinking breakfast beers, at least when I have leftovers. I shouldn't drink before lunchtime, or even before dinner time, but at least I'm too embarrassed to take my car anywhere, so I'm not in danger of driving again. Instead I load up my Discman with this great new album, Rocket by Primitive Radio Gods. No one knows it, which is exactly why I love it. At best, people seem to know the single, Standing Outside a Broken Phone Booth with Money In My Hand. Feels like a metaphor to me. Or just a scene I'm constantly walking right through. I first heard it in the movie Cable Guy, and it was perfect, if not that noticeable to many. But how could you not notice and love that song when it's riding on a sample of B.B. King's How Blue Can You Get? Only thing about relentlessly listening to this song is it's not all that great for my mood. I start thinking about whether I'm gonna bump into Joolz, or Anna for that matter. Or that fucking girl that was with Esther and Liz. I mean I don't think she knows I even exist, but yeah, I would say something now. I know I could. I'd ask her about Gravity's Rainbow. Show her my book, which is so well-thumbed. Could even make out it was new to me, and it's my constant re-reading that's made it look all old and nearly ruined. Slick. I'm'a do that for sure. Will and Glen want me to go record shopping with them, so I walk along with my Primitive Radio Gods, and I listen to Phone Booth three times, then skip it forward to Who Say, which is basically a different band, even though it's actually the same one guy making all of the music. Sounds like Supergroove or something. I like it. But I'm telling myself I love it, just so I can have something no one else holds on to. Album of the Year I'm deciding. No one will pick this. But I am. Inside the store, Will's got all these old prog-rock records for a buck each, Genesis and King Crimson and CAN. He holds them up one by one, for me to say yes or no to.The Lamb Lies Down On Broadway. Genesis. “Yes.”In The Court of the Crimson King. King Crimson. “Yes.”Tago Mago. CAN. “Yes.”Tales From Topographic Oceans. By the band Yes. “No.”Well it gets a laugh from Glen. But then, “You're a fucking snob, Jimmy. Wannabe fucking snob.”“I'm not a snob, I just think Yes is the fucking pits. And Jon Anderson sounds like a frog. I mean, fuckssake, if you're gonna buy that you might as well buy a Rush album.”“They're only a buck,” Will says. “So I think I'll just get it anyway, eh.”“Fine. What would I know,” I say. “Indeed”, Glen says”. And he's laughing.“Well,” I say, “I would know that if you're going to get anything from 1973, it better not be a fucking Yes record, and it absolutely should be a Thomas Pynchon novel.” I'm reaching for Rainbow from my backpack, and Will has his hand reverse-cupped across his forehead. Glen is just laughing even harder. “Fuck up about that fucking book,” Glen adds. “Just because you can't read,” I say.“I can read a room though,” Glen bats straight back. Can't lie. This lands. I think he can even see that I'm wounded. Slightly. “Fuck man,” I'm searching, buying time. “Fucking hell you dick, I mean shit, my fucking girlfriend killed herself.”“Oh yeah,” Glen says. “But do you need to tell everyone you meet this instantly. And also, where is the evidence of this mate? I mean, tragic fucking story, but seriously, it's like you kinda turned it on to suit, there's no photos of you, no one to back you up on this. I am not saying it's not sad as hell. It is. But there's a weird angle too, if you're grafting yourself to the story a little more than is true.”“Cunt!” I had nothing. That was it. I walked straight out of the store, and straight into Joolz. Head down, and angry. Me, that is. I just ploughed into her, and of course, I say sorry. She looks up, deer frozen for a second. “Joolz!” I say. She pulls free from my very loose grip, my hands on her shoulders, apologising, gently holding her to make sure she's steady. But nah. She's having none of this. She shakes her head, as if I've got the wrong person, puts her head down and walks fast. I take three steps after her then stop. “Bitch,” I shout. And then instantly feel like a fucking dick. At the bar, I'm lining up a beer and a bourbon. Americans call it a Boilermaker. I call it necessary. I hit most of the beer in one big slug. Then down the shot. Then back to neck the end of the beer. How is this happening to me. Why am I going everywhere and nowhere all at once and never? How am I the rocket falling in my own story? “You look glum?”“Thanks,” I say. “At least I'm doing something right, I suppose. Like, I feel like I should look glum.”I know she's paid to talk to me, but still. The barmaid says, “What's that book you got there? Is that gonna cheer you up, or is that what's making you sad? It looks,” she pauses, “huge!”It's on the tip of my tongue to say thanks for noticing, but I'd only fuck it up. “Gravity's Rainbow by Thomas Pynchon,” I say. No insight, no joke, no nothing. Just title and author. “Oh, I've heard of that,” she says. And I don't believe her. “Want another combo,” she adds, gesturing to the two glasses. “Tell me about the book,” and she's already turning her back to refill the bourbon shot.“It's pretty dense, right. But it has a real humour to it, also a real metaphysical fatalism.”“A meta-what-now?”“If they get you asking the wrong questions, then they don't have to worry about the answers.”“So that's a wrong question then?”“No no, sorry, that's pretty much a line from the book. I mean not verbatim, but close to it.”“So you're a sad guy, but a smart guy. Reckon you can actually explain to me what the book is about there, smart guy?”“Classic paranoid countercultural stuff, high brow, low brow, the works. It's a book about everything. And nothing.”“Well,” she says, putting the pint down next to the shot of bourbon, “It should really be called Rainbow's Gravity shouldn't it? I mean that's the pot of gold weighing it down, eh?”“Oh my fucking god. It's about rockets. That's the space rocket's arc. The rainbow. It's a metaphor. It's not really about density. The only density in the book is what you're bringing to it. And it sounds like you're bringing a lot!” As soon as I've said it, I think about how I botched every aspect of that. I'm a boring, rude cunt, and I cannot flirt. What the fuck was that?“Hey, sad cunt? Drink your drinks and fuck off, okay?”“Look, my girlfriend, she, um, she ah she took her life…”“Is that because the only other option was having you being a patronising jerk to her? I don't believe you. And I'm not going to serve you. You're done. Finish that and piss right off okay. And I'll tell my partner about you. So fucking watch it.”The bourbon goes down easily and immediately, but I take one swig of the beer and it just feels off. Not the actual taste, but I can't be here. I push the stool back, and it clatters to the floor, my feet vaguely caught in it, I nearly lose my balance. “Get walking there, class act,” the barmaid serves a different kind of shot. “Look, I'm sorry,” I say. And I'm already walking.“You sure are,” she says. All but spitting the words at my back. I've turned and walked, and I'm not looking back. I stand outside and count the coins from my pocket into my hand, and then back into the other hand. I take the Primitive Radio Gods CD out from the Discman and file it in the case, and put it back in my bag, and grab Natalie Merchant's Tigerlily. I can't hear that Broken Phone Booth song again anytime soon. I'm basically standing there as if I'm in the song. As if the song is me. My life. My mood. The sum of it all. And I need to keep moving. I kick at nothing, as I walk the streets wondering where to go. And yeah, I skip straight to Carnival.Sounds Good! is a reader-supported publication.

Episode Overview Michael Levitt sits down with executive advisor Chris March to discuss one of the most common yet underaddressed challenges facing founder-led businesses: the founder themselves becoming the primary obstacle to growth. Chris works with organizations generating between $5 million and $20 million in revenue, helping founders identify structural dysfunction, reclaim their time, and build organizations that can operate independently. Key Topics Covered Founder Gravity Chris introduces the concept of "founder gravity," the organizational pull that keeps all decisions, approvals, and responsibilities flowing back to the founder regardless of company size. He explains that structural problems cannot be coached away, and that solving them requires an intentional redesign of how the organization is built. The Delegation Trap A critical distinction emerges between transferring tasks and transferring decision-making authority. Many founders delegate responsibilities without ever relinquishing the sign-off, which trains their teams to wait for approval rather than exercise independent judgment. True delegation requires trusting people with the authority to make decisions, not just the work itself. AI as an Accelerant, Not a Silver Bullet Both Michael and Chris address the widespread rush to adopt AI without first establishing the operational fundamentals it requires. Without documented SOPs and clearly defined workflows, AI cannot fill the gaps. Chris references a Gartner projection that up to 40 to 90 percent of AI projects may be canceled by 2027 due to this misalignment, noting that organizations are often simply accelerating broken systems rather than fixing them. The Business Continuity Test Chris offers a practical diagnostic: if a founder cannot step away from the business for two to three weeks without it breaking down, they do not have a business. They have an expensive job. He uses this exercise with clients as a structural audit to identify exactly where the organization is fragile. Time as a Strategic Asset Chris closes with his single most impactful recommendation: audit how you spend your time. Founders who operate with unstructured, reactive calendars are commonly leaking 10 to 20 hours per week. Time is the one asset that cannot be recovered, and managing it with intention is foundational to everything else. Actionable Takeaways Conduct an honest organizational design review to determine whether your structure still fits the size of your business. Distinguish between delegating tasks and delegating decision-making authority, and make the latter a priority. Document your SOPs and institutional knowledge before introducing any AI or automation tools. Schedule a planned absence and observe what breaks. Use the results as a structural roadmap. Audit your calendar. Reactive scheduling is one of the most common and costly forms of operational drag. About Chris March Chris March is an executive advisor specializing in founder-led organizations. He helps business owners scale past the point where they themselves are the constraint, focusing on organizational structure, operational design, and leadership development.

Dans le film Gravity du réalisateur Alfonso Cuaron, le personnage d'astronaute joué par Sandra Bullock est à la dérive dans l'espace. Autour d'elle, il n'y a que le noir à l'infini. Pourtant depuis la terre, le ciel nous semble bleu.  Le soleil émet différents rayons. Certains qu'on ne voit pas : les uv, les gamma, les x, les ultraviolets, l'infrarouge etc. Et entre l'infrarouge et l'ultraviolet, il y a les rayons qu'on voit : la lumière visible. Elle est blanche mais en vérité, elle contient des couleurs allant rouge au violet - en passant par le orange, le jaune, le vert et le bleu. Pourquoi ce changement de couleur ? Et pourquoi ça fait changer les couleurs ? Pourquoi le ciel n'est-il pas violet ? Écoutez la suite de cet épisode de "Maintenant vous savez". Un podcast Bababam Originals, écrit et réalisé par Antonella Francini.

Tell me what 'cha want, what ya really, really want... But... do you really know? In his 1941 essay titled, The Weight of Glory, author CS Lewis writes, "It would seem that our Lord finds our desires not too strong, but too weak. We are half-hearted creatures, fooling around with drink and sex and ambition when infinite joy is offered to us; like an ignorant child who wants to go on making mud pies in a slum because he cannot imagine what is meant by the offer of a holiday at the sea. We are far too easily pleased."  We're working our way through a series we've titled, Gravity: Breaking Free From the Weight of Sin. This week, we're looking at desire... a gift from God that has been deeply misunderstood in the Church. And as a result, we've learned to settle for and even pursue, that which is much less than God's best for our lives. Join us this Sunday at 11 AM as we begin our series on sin.

Part 7 of the ether series and Jonathan Drake flies solo, which turns out to be plenty. After a quick review of bounded versus unbounded light and a live antenna demonstration showing radio waves lighting an LED with no power source, the episode pivots to the big one: what is gravity? The answer will bother you in the best possible way. Gravity is not a force. It is not a property of mass. It is not two objects pulling each other. It is the ether voiding the space between field-stressed objects, resolving dielectric tension the same way it always does: centripetally, back toward counter space. The same event explains magnetic attraction, static cling, and why a packing peanut sticks to your hand. And once you understand that gravity is voidance rather than attraction, antigravity stops being science fiction and starts being an engineering problem. Spoiler: someone may have already solved it.

Today, Paul M. Neuberger tears down spiritual counterfeits and draws the line in the sand:WWJD? It's not enough. Because everyone's got a “version” of Jesus.Political Jesus. Buddy Jesus. Social Media Jesus.And every time—He conveniently matches our preferences.But Jesus isn't a mascot. He's the Lord. His Word is the final authority.There's a cost for standing here—ridicule, discomfort, tension. But only one question matters:WDSS—What Does Scripture Say?So when your moment of truth comes, will you follow your feelings… or will you plant your flag on the unshakeable Rock?"Then you will know the truth, and the truth will set you free.” –John 8:32Episode Highlights09:11 - And feelings are terrible foundations because feelings change, but truth never does... The moment you move away from objective truth, something else rushes in to fill the vacuum. Opinions, emotions, preferences, politics, culture, even personal experiences. And suddenly, everybody starts carrying around their own personalized version of Jesus.25:04 - Truth doesn't change because your emotions changed. Gravity doesn't stop working because somebody feels differently about it. Reality doesn't recognize itself or own personal preference. And God's truth doesn't bend because culture demands it.46:22 - The world doesn't have a truth shortage. The world has an authority problem. People are drowning in opinions... But God never called us to create truth. He called us to follow truth.Connect with Paul M. NeubergerWebsite

Hey friends, Chase here Eric Ries is back on the show, and this conversation goes far beyond startups, venture capital, or the mechanics of building a company. You probably know Eric as the author of The Lean Startup, the book that changed how founders, creators, entrepreneurs, and teams think about building something new. His work helped popularize ideas like continuous innovation, validated learning, experimentation, and staying close to the customer instead of getting lost in theory, ego, or endless planning. But this episode is not just about how to start something. It's about how to protect the thing you've built once it starts working. Eric's new book, Incorruptible: Why Good Companies Go Bad…and How Great Companies Stay Great, asks a question that feels especially urgent for creators, entrepreneurs, founders, and leaders right now: How do you build something that can grow without being captured, corrupted, or hollowed out? That question matters whether you're running a company, building a personal brand, growing a creative practice, launching a product, choosing clients, working with sponsors, or trying to do work that actually reflects your values. Because success is not neutral. Success brings attention, opportunity, money, investors, partners, platforms, algorithms, expectations, incentives, shortcuts, and people who may not share the reason you started in the first place. One of Eric's most powerful lines in this conversation is this: "Success is not a source of strength. It is a liability, because success attracts predators." That idea is the center of this episode. If you've ever built something that started to work, you know exactly what he means. The thing that made your work powerful can become the thing other people want to capture. The trust you built can become something others want to monetize. The values that made your community believe in you can suddenly feel inconvenient when there's more money on the table. This conversation is about how to stay awake in the middle of that pressure. We talk about defining what you stand for, making decisions before the pressure arrives, treating trust as an asset, saying no to misaligned opportunities, and building something that can grow without losing its soul. Why This Conversation Matters Right Now We are living in a strange moment for creators and entrepreneurs. On one hand, there has never been more opportunity. An individual with a laptop, a camera, a newsletter, a product, an idea, or a point of view can reach people directly. You can build an audience, launch a business, compete with massive companies, and create a brand around your name, your work, your taste, your values, and your trust. That is extraordinary, but it also comes with a real cost. The forces shaping our work have never been more intense. Platforms reward outrage. Algorithms reward simplification. Investors reward speed. Markets reward extraction. The pressure to be louder, faster, more polarizing, more optimized, and more "growth-minded" is everywhere. Eric describes this pressure as a kind of gravity. It is the gravity of platforms, incentives, success, and other people's definitions of winning. If we are not conscious of those forces, they shape us without our permission. That is one of the biggest themes in this episode: you are always being shaped by the systems you participate in. The question is whether you are awake enough to notice, honest enough to name it, and disciplined enough to choose a different path when the incentives start pulling you away from who you actually want to be. What We Explore in This Episode Why success can become a liability when it attracts people, money, platforms, and incentives that want to capture what you've built. How creators get shaped by platforms and why the algorithm can quietly tune your voice, values, and identity toward whatever gets the most engagement. Why trust may be the most valuable asset in business and why it is so easy to destroy with one short-term decision. How to define an ethos before outside pressure, money, growth, or status starts making decisions for you. Why "harder is easier" when your principles are clear enough to remove debate from the moments that matter. How companies, creators, and brands slowly trade away their soul through small compromises that seem harmless in the moment. Why alignment matters more than scale when choosing clients, customers, sponsors, platforms, partners, and investors. How to build something durable without losing the trust, purpose, and values that made it worth building in the first place. The Core Idea: Growth Without Betrayal The real test of success is whether you can grow without betraying what made you worth trusting. It is easy to talk about values when nothing is on the line. It is easy to say you care about quality, access, creativity, service, truth, community, or long-term thinking when the stakes are low. But values only become real when they cost you something. That might happen when there is a big check on the table from a misaligned sponsor. It might happen when an investor wants a different path than the one you set out to build. It might happen when the algorithm rewards a version of you that is more inflammatory, less nuanced, and less honest. It might happen when you can quietly take the shortcut, ship something you don't believe in, or make a decision that no one will notice in the short term. Those are the moments that reveal the truth. Not the words on the wall, not the mission statement, not the brand deck, and not the beautifully written values page. The decision is the proof. Eric's argument is that if you want to build something incorruptible, you have to know what you stand for before those moments arrive. Once the pressure is here, it becomes much harder to think clearly. Success Attracts Predators One of the most powerful parts of this conversation is Eric's warning about success. Most of us are trained to think of success as pure upside: more customers, more revenue, more attention, more leverage, more opportunity, and more proof that the thing is working. Eric flips that idea on its head. Success is not only a source of strength. It is also a liability, because the more valuable your work becomes, the more attractive it becomes to people and systems that want to use it for their own ends. That can look like: Investors who want growth at any cost. Platforms that reward you for becoming a more extreme version of yourself. Partners who want access to your audience but do not share your values. A company acquiring a beloved brand and slowly stripping away what people trusted about it. Your own internal pressure to keep the numbers moving up and to the right, even when the work starts to feel misaligned. This is where corruption often begins. Not with one giant evil decision, but with tiny tradeoffs. A small compromise here, a slightly misaligned deal there, a decision that seems harmless because "no one will notice," or a shortcut taken because the quarter is tight. Over time, the thing that made you trusted starts to erode. The work still looks successful from the outside, but inside the machine, something essential has been traded away. The Gravity of Platforms Eric and I also talk about the pressure creators face from platforms. This part is especially relevant if you make anything for the internet. The promise of platforms is access. You can reach people, publish instantly, build a community, and grow a business without asking for permission from traditional gatekeepers. That is powerful, and I don't want to minimize how much opportunity that has created. But platforms also have values. Not values in the human sense, but values in the incentive sense. They reward certain behaviors and punish others. They reward what keeps people clicking, watching, reacting, arguing, and coming back. Over time, creators start to adapt. You post something thoughtful and nuanced, and almost nobody sees it. You post something sharper, more polarizing, more emotionally charged, and suddenly the platform lights up. That teaches you something, whether you want it to or not. The danger is that you start to confuse what the algorithm rewards with what people actually need. You begin making tiny adjustments: a stronger hook, a more controversial angle, less complexity, more certainty, more outrage, less truth. Eventually, you may not even notice that your voice has changed. That is the gravity Eric is talking about. It is not a force that announces itself. It is a force that quietly pulls until one day you realize you have been shaped by something you never consciously chose. Trust Is a Bank Account One of my favorite ideas from Eric's book is what he calls the culture bank. The idea is simple: trust is an asset. Every time you make a sacrifice for the sake of a principle, you make a deposit. Every time you betray a principle for short-term gain, you make a withdrawal. Eric's rule is almost painfully simple: Only make deposits. Never make withdrawals. Of course, we are human. We make mistakes. Sometimes we think we are doing the right thing and we get it wrong. Sometimes something breaks, a customer gets disappointed, or a decision does not land the way we intended. That is not the point. The point is not perfection. The point is to avoid intentional withdrawals. Don't knowingly trade trust for a quick hit. Don't knowingly betray the values that made people believe in you. Don't knowingly cash out your reputation for something that will not matter a year from now. Because trust takes a long time to build and almost no time to destroy. When you are a creator, founder, or entrepreneur, trust is not a soft idea. It is the business, the brand, the relationship, and the reason people come back. Harder Is Easier Another principle Eric shares is this: harder is easier. At first, that sounds backwards, but the more you sit with it, the more it makes sense. When your principles are unclear, every decision becomes a debate: Should we take this client? Should we work with this sponsor? Should we ship something that is not good enough? Should we raise prices in a way that violates what we promised? Should we optimize for short-term revenue even if it damages long-term trust? If you don't know what you stand for, every one of those moments requires a new meeting, a new justification, a new argument, and a new rationalization. When your principles are clear, many decisions become simpler. Not always easier in the short term, but simpler. You already know what the answer is. You may still have to do the hard work, find another way, absorb some pain, or get more creative, but you don't have to wonder who you are. For a creator, this might mean knowing the kind of clients you will not take. For a founder, it might mean knowing the kind of investors you will not accept. For a leader, it might mean knowing the kind of culture you will not tolerate. For a brand, it might mean knowing which promises are sacred. Values Are Not Decoration We also talk about the difference between values as corporate decoration and values as operating instructions. Most of us have seen the empty version: company values on a wall, mission statements nobody remembers, and nice words that disappear the second the business is under pressure. Real values are different because real values shape decisions. They influence who you hire, who you fire, who you serve, what you build, what you refuse, how you respond when something goes wrong, and what you do when nobody is watching. At CreativeLive, one of our core values was access. That value shaped the business model. It shaped the decision to make live classes available for free while we were creating them. It shaped the way people encountered the brand and the way the community experienced the work. Yes, there were plenty of moments where people looked at that and asked why we were giving so much away. But that was the point. Access wasn't a slogan. It was a decision, and the decision is what made the value real. Alignment Beats Anyone With a Dollar Toward the end of the conversation, we talk about one of the most important lessons for creators: not every customer is your customer. Early on, this can be hard to hear. When you're trying to make a living with your camera, your writing, your design work, your product, your ideas, or your creative practice, the temptation is to say yes to anyone with a dollar and a heartbeat. I get it. I've been there. Over time, though, the goal is not to work with everyone. The goal is to find the right people. The right clients. The right customers. The right sponsors. The right collaborators. The right platforms. The right partners. The right community. When I was making millions of dollars a year as a photographer, I didn't need millions of customers. I needed a small number of deeply aligned clients. That is true for a lot of creative businesses. Scale is seductive, but alignment is durable. When you know your values, it becomes easier to choose who you want to work with and just as importantly, who you don't.

Where am I letting outside incentives shape my decisions without realizing it? What kind of success would I not want if it required betraying my values? Where have I confused growth with alignment? Which clients, customers, platforms, sponsors, or partners are pulling me away from the work I want to be known for? What is one trust deposit I could make this week? What is one trust withdrawal I need to stop making? What promise do I want my work to make and keep? A Simple Practice for Staying Incorruptible Here's something practical you can do this week. Write down three lists and be brutally honest with yourself: What I stand for: the values that should guide your work, offers, partnerships, clients, platforms, and decisions. What I will not trade: the principles you are unwilling to sacrifice for money, growth, attention, status, convenience, or approval. What I need to change: the places where your current behavior is not aligned with what you say you believe. This is not a branding exercise, and it is not about coming up with impressive words. It is about making decisions easier before the pressure arrives. Because when the opportunity shows up, when the money is on the table, when the algorithm rewards the wrong thing, when the shortcut looks harmless, you want to already know who you are. Final Thought The longer I build things, the more I believe that trust is everything. Trust is what makes people come back. Trust is what makes a brand durable. Trust is what makes a creative career sustainable. Trust is what allows a company, a community, a body of work, or a reputation to compound over time. But trust is also fragile. It can be spent, traded, and quietly eroded by decisions that seem small in the moment. That is why this conversation with Eric matters. The goal is not just to build something successful. The goal is to build something worthy of the success it earns: something aligned, durable, and trustworthy enough that people can believe in it over the long term. Until next time: know what you stand for, protect the trust you've built, and build something that can grow without being captured.

Here it is: The third and final part of our deep dive on Weezer's 2001 self-titled “Green Album.” We take one final look at some background information (which includes some lawsuits…yikes!) before getting into a fun debate about the songs themselves. Oh, and did you know that one of the songs on this album was originally offered to another famous musician? Thanks for taking this strange journey with us on the last few episodes. We had an absolute blast celebrating an album that still maintains its relevance 25 years later.

Episode 382: MANNY MARROQUIN “The Famed Mixing Engineer Who Crafted Classics for Kanye, John Mayer and Alicia Keys” The Road Podcast crew is in LA for the NAMM show and have a sit down with multi-Grammy Award-winning mixing engineer @MannyMarroquin whose career spans over two decades, defining the sonic landscape for artists like @KanyeWest, @AliciaKeys, and @JohnMayer. Manny joined the @ROADpodcast to break down the delicate balance between technical precision and emotional resonance in modern mixing. Starting with the core distinctions between engineers and producers, Manny explains his "emotion over technicality" philosophy (04:05) and the "Batman and Robin" approach to song structure (09:00). He provides an inside look at legendary sessions, discussing the ego free mindset required for 808s & Heartbreak (11:15), the "a-ha" moment of "Love Lockdown" (18:32), and the grueling 20-mix saga behind “Stronger." The conversation shifts to the synesthesia of sound, where Manny compares audio engineering to the brushstrokes of Renoir and Picasso (23:30), and explains his process of turning his chair away from the monitors to find objectivity. After diving into the mechanics of club records like "Let Me Love You" (35:50) and the future of music trends in 2026, he discusses the "less is more" choice for @JohnMayer's "Gravity" (55:55). The episode concludes with his venture into the culinary world with @Verse.LA (1:13:01) and a reflective look at his journey from Guatemala (1:26:01).

On the latest episode of Salt Lake Dirt, I sat down with author Perrin Pring to talk about her novel, Cash and Gravity, which releases on May 26th from Diversion Books. The story is set in a near future where six mega-corporations have essentially supplanted global governments. It follows Chevy Cole, a military grunt who unexpectedly ends up on the run with a stolen mobile fusion device that everyone is trying to track down. Perrin shared how the initial spark for the book came from a conversation with her husband during a long, remote drive through Nevada after days spent off the grid on the Green River. We also talked about how her career as a park ranger helps her bring a gritty, hands-on realism to the physical struggles her characters face. What I found especially interesting was hearing about her rewriting process and her willingness to take tough feedback. Influenced by her time in a low-residency MFA program and advice from author Todd Goldberg, Perrin actually swapped the genders of her main characters late in the process to find the right dynamic. We discussed the lore of her "Aces"—the elite, space-based super-soldiers who are treated like celebrity athletes in this corporate world—and how they contrast with characters who just want to stay off the grid. Perrin also pulled back the curtain on the business side of writing, from balancing a full-time job with creative deadlines to the grind of maintaining a social media platform. It was a great conversation about craft and the realities of the industry. Check out the episode, and you can find Perrin's weekly vignettes and reviews on Instagram and Substack.

If I were to ask you, “What's the most important thing in your life?” many of you would tell me it's your relationship with God. Good answer… at least it sounds good. But if I asked you to look at your calendar and tell me what your first priority is… the thing you give the most time, thought, and energy to… would it be something different? What really has first place in your heart and life? We're working our way through a series we've titled, Gravity: Breaking Free From the Weight of Sin. This week, we're looking at idols or false gods--the things we allow to have first place in our lives--to be more important than our relationship with God.  They can be difficult to identify, because  unlike a wood or stone idol, they're not always something you can touch. But that doesn't make them any less real or powerful. Join us this Sunday at 11 AM as we begin our series on sin.

It's one of the first games little kids learn to play. And oh.... the fun of squeezing into the perfect spot or finding just the right-sized thing to hide behind. And then, anticipating the moment that someone discovers where you are...  I see you! There is so much joy in being found!  But somewhere along the way, being found isn't what we're after. Something shifts and we begin to look for more sophisticated ways of hiding. Ways that keep others from seeing who we really are, even if things look good on the surface. We're in week 2 of a new series we've titled, Gravity: Breaking Free From the Weight of Sin. Over the next few weeks, we're looking deeper at the way sin impacts our lives. This week, we're looking at shame--the unseen but deeply felt force that drives us to hide who we are or what we've done, rather than risk being seen, fully known and truly loved.

Send us a Positive Review!Series Title: Religion IS Political [Part IV of VII]In this episode Val & Nathan continue to build a case that it is impossible for religious systems to be "neutral" on political issues. They explore how society evolves as religions & political systems engage in the dance of shaping and being shaped by one another and how in every era brave individuals lead out in inviting social change & can come from either spiritual realm as both politics & religions confront how to dignify human life.  They also talk about how some churches lead the charge of social justice (confronting longstanding dominator hierarchies) and some churches are society's great "feet draggers" (defending dominator hierarchies). Why the feet-dragging?  And why do the "feet draggers" often finally begrudgingly jump on the enlightenment train?  Timestamps:00:00 Welcome and Series Setup01:44 Legitimacy vs Transformation Religions05:43 Silence and Power Structures09:42 Why Churches Cannot Condemn11:37 Article of Faith 12 Obedience13:54 Moral Consequences and Neutrality18:38 Religion and Politics Interwoven19:55 Civilizational Development Framework22:50 Center of Gravity in Mormonism24:13 Leading Edge Reformers25:54 Civil Rights Awakening27:52 Laws Versus Hearts30:17 Legitimacy Church Trap31:19 Pressure Forces Change37:06 BYU And Wyoming Seven39:27 Social Capital And Attrition42:47 Patriarchy Next Frontier44:17 God Beyond Hierarchy47:18 Why Churches Catch Up48:03 Spiraling Toward Transformation49:00 Next Episode PreviewSupport the showSupport the showListen, Share, Rate & Review EPISODESFriday Episodes Annual Access $89Friday Episodes Monthly Access $10Valerie's Support & Processing GroupsGift a ScholarshipDownload Free ResourcesVisit our WebsiteJoin Valerie in Italy 2026

Executive VP Stella Li has directed engineers to keep European variants under 4.3 metres, with separate B- and C-segment standards, as BYD stops adapting China-market models and instead builds vehicles tailored to dense European cities.MAZDA DELAYS DEDICATED EV TO 2029Mazda has pushed back its first dedicated EV platform by two years to 2029 and cut EV investment by nearly half, shifting resources toward hybrids and China-sourced electrified products. Before 2029, Mazda will sell China-built EVs — effectively rebadged Changan Automobile models — in Europe, Australia, and Southeast Asia.AUTOMAKERS SEEK NEW EU CO2 CONCESSIONSVolkswagen Group, BMW, and Mercedes-Benz met EU officials in Brussels on 13 May to press for further flexibility on the bloc's 2035 emissions targets, despite having already won concessions just months ago. Germany's VDA lobby warned that the country's auto sector could shed up to 125,000 additional jobs by 2035 without meaningful improvement in competitiveness.OPEL PREVIEWS 207 KW CORSA GSEOpel has revealed the all-electric Corsa GSE, which it claims will be the fastest-accelerating production Opel ever built, with a 0–100 km/h time of 5.5 seconds from a front-mounted 207 kW permanent magnet motor. The car rides on Stellantis' e-CMP platform and features a Torsen limited-slip differential, Alcon four-piston brakes, lowered sports suspension, and uprated battery thermal management.AUSTRALIA DELAYS FEDERAL EV ROAD CHARGEAustralia's federal government has paused its EV road user charge, opting to first develop a coordinated policy with state and territory governments following the High Court's 2023 ruling that struck down Victoria's version. The budget also restructures EV fringe benefits tax support, narrowing the full FBT exemption from April 2027 to EVs priced at A$75,000 or below on novated leases, before shifting to a 25% FBT reduction for all EVs under the luxury car tax threshold from April 2029.GERMAN OPERATORS BACK ELECTRIC TRUCKSA German study by the Institute for Applied Ecology found that 93% of transport companies already running electric trucks are satisfied or very satisfied, citing high reliability, driving comfort, and low operating costs. The same share expect electric trucks to become the standard fleet vehicle by 2030, though operators flagged high upfront costs and depot grid connection complexity as the main barriers.AI CHARGING METHOD CUTS EV BATTERY WEARResearchers at Chalmers University of Technology have developed an AI-driven fast-charging method using reinforcement learning that extends EV battery life by 23% without adding to charge times. The system adapts charging current to each battery's state of health and electrochemistry in real time, reducing internal wear and the risk of lithium plating compared to current one-size-fits-all charging protocols.FIRST BUS TESTS DEPOTS AS GRID ASSETSFirst Bus has launched a trial using its electric bus depot infrastructure to support the National Grid, intelligently scheduling charging to absorb surplus Scottish wind power that would otherwise be curtailed. The UK's largest electric bus operator, with over 1,400 zero-emission vehicles, argues the scheme can cut wasted renewable energy, support grid stability, and improve the economics of fleet electrification.LUCID PUTS UK LAUNCH BACK TO 2028Lucid has delayed its UK market entry to early 2028 — the third such postponement — with European President Lawrence Hamilton saying the firm must sequence its expansion carefully after entering seven or eight more continental European markets in 2026 first. Lucid will skip bringing the current Air and Gravity models to the UK, instead launching only on its new mid-size 800-volt platform with the Cosmos coupé-crossover and Earth SUV variants, built on the Atlas drive unit that cuts manufacturing costs by 37%.UK E-VAN RULES EASE FROM 2026From June 2026, the UK government will remove regulatory barriers for electric vans weighing between 3.5 and 4.25 tonnes, aligning them with equivalent diesel and petrol vehicles under the Class 7 MOT framework with a first MOT due after three years rather than one. Driver hours rules will also change, removing mandatory tachograph use and base-distance restrictions, with operators set to save up to 60% on MOT costs under the new regime.UK USED EV SALES HIT Q1 RECORDUK used EV sales hit a record 86,943 units in Q1 2026, up 32% year on year, with around one in 23 used car buyers choosing an EV compared to one in 30 in the same period last year. The surge is being driven by growing used EV supply from strong prior new car sales, lower prices, and improving buyer confidence in battery longevity.

What would it take for you to lose the things that you value the most? "Gravity" affects all of us. Many times followers of Christ live frustrated because they believe everything is in God's hands, and if progress was not made, it's because God didn't will it into existence. It is true that our will should submit to God's will, but what about our part? What is your part? Many times we lack the understanding of our role in God's masterplan. In this message, Pastor JD shares a simple teaching that will bring you clarity. For more about ConnectCommunity, visit: https://www.connectcommunity.org

A "heretical" alternative to dark matter is MOND (Modified Newtonian Dynamics), proposed by Mordehai Milgrom. Milgrom suggests that dark matter may not exist; instead, our current laws of gravity might be incorrect at galactic scales. MOND successfully explains galaxy rotation curves without requiring unseen matter, which remains a "worry" for traditional physicists. However, most cosmologists rely on gravitational lensing to map dark matter distribution. A key test is the Bullet Cluster, where two galaxy clusters are merging. Observations suggest mass is separated from visible gas, which initially seemed to refute MOND, though proponents still refine their theories. Future instruments, such as the Extremely Large Telescope in Chile, aim to provide the sensitivity needed to finally confirm the properties of dark matter or prove if modified gravity is the true answer.

Following Jim Peebles' work on Cold Dark Matter, scientists began searching for the WIMP (Weakly Interacting Massive Particle). These particles are thought to interact through gravity but lack electrical charges or nuclear force interactions, making them invisible. The search has moved from telescopes to particle physics, with researchers at CERN's Large Hadron Collider attempting to create WIMPs through high-energy collisions. Simultaneously, underground laboratories globally search for rare instances where a WIMP might "bump" into an atomic nucleus. Computer simulations like IllustrisTNG are used to model the universe's evolution from the Big Bang. These simulations are highly successful at recreating the current universe only when CDM is included. Despite this success in theory and simulation, the physical particle has yet to be detected in any laboratory, leaving the nature of dark matter an open question. (4/8)1903 LANGELY AERODROME

The 100-year search for dark matter began in 1922 with Dutch astronomer Jacobus Kapteyn, who was the first to use the term "dark matter" in a scientific paper. Kapteyn realized that the gravity of unseen matter must govern the motions of stars. His student, Jan Oort, later expanded on this by studying the vertical "up and down" motions of stars in the Milky Way to estimate the mass in the galactic plane. Fritz Zwicky provided a major breakthrough by observing the redshift of galaxies in the Coma cluster, concluding they moved too fast for visible mass to hold them together. Zwicky termed this missing mass "Dunkle Materie." These early pioneers identified a gravitational discrepancy—the "elephant in the universe"—that would define modern cosmology as scientists began hunting for what they could not see.

The Big Bang theory is essential for understanding dark matter because the early universe was incredibly smooth, yet it evolved into the "clumpy" universe of galaxies we see today. Only additional gravity from dark matter can explain this rapid formation. Matter is categorized as baryonic (normal atoms) or non-baryonic. Based on Big Bang nucleosynthesis, there is not enough baryonic matter to account for the universe's gravity, requiring a new kind of particle. Albert Bosmaused radio astronomy to confirm that galaxy rotation curves remain flat even further out in hydrogen gas clouds. Early candidates like neutrinos were ruled out because they are "hot" (fast-moving) and would prevent small-scale clumping. Consequently, scientists shifted focus toward Cold Dark Matter (CDM), which consists of slower, more massive particles that fit the observed evolution of the universe. (3/8)

In the uneasy calm after Argentum, the cracks start to show. While the city of Iacon tries to return to normal, Carapace decides now is the perfect time to rob a store—because some habits survive every arc. Elsewhere, Magnum and Spindrift dig deeper into the data pulled from the Doctrine's ruins. What they uncover isn't just leftover ideology or rogue cells, but something far more structured: the remains of Starscream’s plans for the Harmonium. As one problem is handled loudly and another quietly takes shape, the crew realizes that the space between victory and consequence is shrinking fast. We want to hear your feedback!

Ken Croswell describes the Milky Way's structure as a barred spiral galaxy. He explains that the central bar exerts massive gravitational force. This gravity has trapped billions of "Trojan stars" into two vast whirlpools, similar to how Jupiter's gravity captures Trojan asteroids in its orbit. (15/16)1943 RIBBENTROP  AND HIMMLER IN BERLIN  

"This is also me saying here's a literary reading of the universe through physics. There's a way you can read The Edge of Space-Time as me doing close-reading for a few 100 pages. I'm close-reading equations. I'm close-reading Dirac. I'm close-reading Hawking and Ellis, but it's all different versions of a literary practice," says Chanda Prescod-Weinstein, author of The Edge of Space-Time: Particles, Poetry, and the Cosmic Dream Boogie (Pantheon Books).Coming at you at the speed of sound, CNFers, with Chanda Prescod-Weinstein, who is the author of The Disordered Cosmos: A Journey into Dark Matter, Spacetime, and Dreams Deferred and her latest book The Edge of Space-Time: Particles, Poetry, and the Cosmic Dream Boogie. It's published by Pantheon Books.She is an associate professor of physics and core faculty member in women's and gender studies at the University of New Hampshire. Her work lives at the intersection of particle physics, cosmology, and astrophysics and she's also a theorist of Black feminist science studies.Her book is accessible, for sure, but it's mind-bendy and it strikes me as the kind of book you want to read twice. One, it's good company, and two, the material she translates is really difficult to get your head around, but that's the nature of the quantum mechanics, and general relativity, and particle physics, and how the hell did we get here in the first place? Gah!So Chanda talks about: The publishing business in conversations she had with CNF Pod alum Keith O'Brien Writing for Black and queer audiences The different selves who approach the page Paying attention to acknowledgements Epigraph rights and how they set the vibe The fork in the road researchers face when they write a pop science book Physicist brain A literary reading of the universe The world keeps happening while you're writing Understanding metaphors And what Newton and Einstein might talk about if they sat down at a bar togetherBe sure you visit Chanda's website chanda.science and follow her on Instagram at chanda.prescod.weinstein.This episode will pair well with: Episode 103: Persistent, Constant, Careful Work with Dennis Overbye Episode 111: The Empowering and Exciting Nature of Film with Emer Reynolds Episode 307: Greg Brennecka Episode 334: Katrina Miller Episode 395: “The Six,” Mini-Deadlines and the Twang with Loren Grush

PREVIEW for Later Today: Dr. Ken Croswell discusses the discovery of Trojan stars within the Milky Way. These stars parallel Jupiter's Trojan asteroids, maintained in equilibrium by gravity and centrifugal forces over immense distances across the barred galaxy.
