Combining the thrill of exploration in those old school games with modern sensibilities, Legend of Grimrock 2 is one of the best RPGs I've ever played, and I couldn't wait to discuss it on the show.

Federal Judge Dismisses FTC Antitrust Complaint Against Meta — Jessica Melugin — Judge Boasberg dismissed the FTC's monopoly complaint on the foundational grounds that the agency failed to properly define the relevant market, artificially inflating Meta's competitive share by excluding dominant competitors including TikTok and YouTube. Melugin documents that proper market definition analysis places Meta's competitive share at approximately 30–50%, insufficient to constitute monopoly status under established antitrust doctrine, with the decision correctly emphasizing forward-looking statutory authority rather than retroactive punishment of 2020 historical behavior. 1953

In this episode of Ojai Talk of the Town, host Bret Bradigan sits down with Stacey Jones, founder and owner of the Ojai Coffee Roasting Company, which celebrates its 30th anniversary this Boxing Day, December 26, 2025.Stacey and Ojai Coffee Roasters is featured in the Winter issue of Ojai Quarterly magazine.Stacey recounts how she and her then-husband, Kent, were meandering through California's wine country when they wandered into a café in Calistoga — and instantly knew what they wanted to do next. A former precision tools salesperson for the defense industry, Stacey traded machine parts for coffee beans and found her true calling in community and connection.Over the past three decades, the Ojai Coffee Roasting Company has weathered everything from recessions to a global pandemic, yet it remains one of Ojai's most cherished “third places” — where locals gather, friendships form, and the pulse of the town beats strongest.Stacey reflects on what's changed (and what hasn't) in the coffee world, the courage it takes to keep a small business thriving in a small town, and how serving a simple cup of coffee can help knit together a community.We talked about flat whites, salted caramel lattés and favorite customers. We did not talk about mako sharks, the NBA gambling scandal or Zohran Mamdani.Check out more about Ojai Coffee Roasters at https://ojaicoffeeroasters.com/?srsltid=AfmBOooPQy-Ena5gGhqAfAESC9Jo_yHuGosU0FTAz832umAzl5trma04

Salop are improving and we are all for it. We discuss the last five games and some strange goings on off the pitch.

For as much as we all joke about the, "kids these days" mentality that every generation seems to have in one form or another, for most of human history this sentiment was often more anecdotalI than anything else. Typically we see youth as a combination of  'risky behavior' mixed with 'poor decision-making' - a dangerous cocktail to be certain - but trying something new at ANY stage of life will often look foolish to those on the outside. The question each of us faces, then, is how much are we willing to trust ourselves. It's a question my guest this week wants her clients to answer with confidence, and maybe a little bit of laughter. Nermin Jasani joins us this week for a conversation about how she went from managing to get into a Wall Street job at the height of the financial crisis to moving across the country to attempt a tech start up, ultimately coming back to the law as a consultant for other women in the profession. We discuss the importance of hiring good people, why technology is fantastic but can't replace our responsibilities, and how the business of law is always rooted in the economics of Supply & Demand.Enjoy the show!

You probably do not know this, but your morning cup of coffee carries a dark story. It's a story riddled with deforestation, child labor, slavery, corporate denial, and environmental injustice. This week, Etelle Higonnet, founder of Coffee Watch, joins the Environmental Justice Lab to expose how the global coffee industry profits from environmental destruction and human suffering, and what must change. Etelle pulls back the curtain on the hidden costs of coffee production: forests cleared for plantations, farmers trapped in poverty, children and women enslaved, and powerful corporations dodging responsibility. But this isn't just a story of despair. It's a call to action.

One of the best parts of being an early-bird is that I almost never hit traffic on my way into the office – though living two miles away certainly helps, too. But one thing I do miss about my longer drives to work some days is the time I was able to spend listening to the radio. Usually a mix of news and music, but sometimes it's just whichever station isn't playing commercials. But there's one program I make a point to listen to: NPR's My Unsung Hero. It's usually no more than two minutes long, but the stories about what often seem like small acts of kindness often have impacts that last far beyond that moment. For my guest this week, that act was being handed a pamphlet by a concerned coworker.As a Marine Corp Veteran, Mark Ross was suffering from PTSD, and as he shares in this week's episode, after reading it over, he realized that of the 12 common symptoms, he checked nearly every single one. It was a small gesture of encouragement that would not only save Mark's life, but the lives of all those he's helped in his journey towards recovery. After living with the symptoms for years, Mark has now decided to turn his pain into purpose. Today, he's the creator and the host of the podcast, Speak Your Truth with Mark Ross, a show dedicated to mental health awareness, community resilience, and honest conversations that shatter stigma. Mark also co-facilitates fatherhood groups to incarcerated men at the Milwaukee County Community Reintegration Center, helping them reclaim their roles as fathers and leaders, and speaks frequently on the intersection of veterans and mental health. It's a wonderful, if not tough conversation that I can promise ends in plenty of laughter.  Enjoy the show!

Episode 39: Fellers v. KelleyFellers, et al. v. Kelley, et al., argued before Circuit Judge Julie Rikelman and Senior Circuit Judges Sandra L. Lynch and Jeffrey R. Howard in the United States Court of Appeals for the First Circuit on November 5, 2025. Argued by Del Kolde (on behalf of Kyle Fellers, et al.) and Jonathan Shirley (on behalf of Marcy Kelley, et al.). Background of the case, from the Institute for Free Speech case page:A silent protest in support of girls' sports led Bow officials to censor XX wristbands, threaten arrests and ban dissenters from school grounds. Now, three parents and a grandfather are fighting back against the officials who trampled on their First Amendment rights—and the policies those officials weaponized to do it. The lawsuit, filed in the U.S. District Court for the District of New Hampshire, alleges that the defendants violated the plaintiffs' First Amendment rights by forcing them to remove “XX” wristbands, and then banning them from school grounds. The plaintiffs wore the wristbands to silently protest government officials allowing a biological male to play on the opposing girls' soccer team. School officials, along with a police officer, confronted the parents during the game, demanding that they remove the wristbands or leave. The referee also temporarily stopped the game and said that the game would be over if the remaining plaintiff did not remove his wristband. Two of the plaintiffs were later sent no-trespass notices excluding them from future games.  The plaintiffs ask the court to enjoin the school from enforcing its unconstitutional policy or practice of censoring the display of  XX wristbands or displaying signs in the parking lot in support of protecting women's sports at Bow school sporting events Statement of the Issues, from the Plaintiff-Appellants' Opening Brief:Does a blanket ban on so-called “exclusionary” speech by adults at school events open to the public discriminate against speech based on its content and viewpoint?  Do public school officials illegally discriminate against speech based on viewpoint by banning adult spectators at school sporting events from wearing XX-wristbands conveying an “exclusionary” message, when those same officials permit adult spectators to display a Pride Flag because the message is “inclusionary?”  Is the First Amendment's protection of speech by adult spectators in a limited public forum, such as a public-school extracurricular sporting event, subject to the same legal test for the protection of student speech in schools set forth in Tinker v. Des Moines and its progeny?  Can the passive display of an XX-wristband by parents watching a school sporting event in which a trans-identified student is playing “reasonably be understood as directly assaulting those who identify as transgender women?” Did the district court correctly find that the XX-wristbands' message would be likely to injure transgender students when the record lacks evidence of such phenomena?  Did the district court err by denying plaintiffs' motion for a preliminary injunction?Resources: Institute for Free Speech case page Plaintiff-Appellants' Opening Brief Defendant-Appellees' Brief The Institute for Free Speech promotes and defends the political speech rights to freely speak, assemble, publish, and petition the government guaranteed by the First Amendment.

The EarthWorks team recently visited the property and can attest that it is one of the best-conditioned courses we have seen in years.Russell Lands, a lake community built by the Russell family of Russell Athletic fame, blends history, craftsmanship, and natural beauty. But being far from a major metropolitan area presents a unique challenge in attracting the next generation of turf professionals. The solution was the Turf Grass Invitational, a day of education and inspiration where turf students from nearby universities experience the EarthWorks Academy, network with industry professionals, and finish the day with a round at Wicker Point.It is an innovative approach to mentorship, agronomy, and community building in the golf industry. The conversation covers turf management, leadership, and the evolving role of superintendents.A great day, a great conversation, and a reminder that when education and passion meet, the future of turf is in good hands.Visit EarthWorks at: https://www.earthworksturf.com Podcasts: https://www.earthworksturf.com/earthworks-podcasts/ 2 Minute Turf Talks: https://www.earthworksturf.com/2-minute-turf-talks/
