For years, fighting was on the decline in the National Hockey League and traditional enforcers lost their place on the roster. But is fighting coming back? It certainly was in that Four Nations Canada/USA game in Montreal, where there were three fights in nine seconds. Is that moment a turning point for fighting in the game? We've also seen our share of brutal headshots in the Stanley Cup Playoffs so far. Is the league succeeding at all in cutting down on those? Guests include: Ryan Pinder, co-host of Barn Burner Podcast at Flames Nation; Sean McIndoe, Senior NHL writer at The Athletic and co-host of two podcasts: Puck Soup and The Athletic Hockey Show; Mary Ormsby, Toronto Star journalist for 35 years; and Ken Campbell, Freelance hockey writer and a long-time writer at The Hockey News.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

In this episode of the 4th Liners Podcast, we dive into some of the NHL's most heated moments and biggest debates. First, we break down the controversial hit by enforcer Ryan Reaves on Darnell Nurse, resulting in a head injury, and compare it to a similar incident where Tanner Jeannot delivered a direct headshot to Canucks forward Brock Boeser. Next, we tackle the big question: Is Jets goalie Connor Hellebuyck destined for the Hall of Fame? With another Vezina Trophy—and maybe a Stanley Cup—could his legacy be cemented among the NHL's greats? We also shine a spotlight on Ovechkin and the Capitals, as Ovi inches closer to surpassing "The Great One" with just 26 goals needed to claim the NHL's all-time scoring crown. Finally, we analyze the disappointing start for the Nashville Predators and explore where things have gone wrong for this once-promising team. Tune in to the 4th Liners Podcast for all this and more!

Actors need photographs of their heads in order to sell themselves to those who are handing out the jobs. This is the most powerful, the most immediate means by which an actor can get themselves seen by the people who matter most… THE CASTING DIRECTOR.   Known in the industry as "headshots", these photographic portraits are how an actor is able to initially kick in the doors and start garnering interest from THE CASTING DIRECTOR.   But what makes for the perfect shot? Is it in the hair? They eyes? The smile? Picking the right cardigan…? Well, it's all of that and more. In this episode Todd Kramer picks over Jay Reum's newest batch of headshots to discuss and discover what makes for a winning look, the kind that grabs attention and lands that ever coveted AUDITION. It's part art, it's part science it's all Offstage Acting…   ※=※=※=※=※=※=※=※=※=※=※

On today's episode, I talk to rappers Brian Warren and Quentin Branch AKA Angry Blackmen. Both living in Chicago in the mid-20-teens, Brian and Quentin met through a mutual friend and eventually a few years later began making music together. Brian asked Quentin to form a duo saying, "I was looking at probably like, OutKast or something, and I was like, 'If they can do it, we can do it'." Their first album TALKSHIT! in 2019 netted them an online following, and subsequent albums were released on Deathbomb Arc. This includes 2020's HEADSHOTS!, 2021's REALITY! and their most recent, the fantastic The Legend of ABM, which was released back in January.

Today I'm joined by Camila Maria Cardozo, a brand photographer and videographer for conscious entrepreneurs. We've actually worked a few photoshoots together, so this conversation is a really fun mind meld.    If you're a service provider who is thinking of having a photoshoot done soon, this episode is for you! Maybe you've had your photos taken in the past and it felt like you were just going with the crowd. Or maybe it would be your first big photoshoot ever! We're walking through all of our hot takes about what it takes to create brand visuals that support you as your visibility grows.    You'll also get a bit of a behind the scenes look into what goes into our hiring decisions. Because, while I often talk about attracting cold leads, I think it's important to observe ourselves as we're buying from other people.   By asking yourself: What did it take for me to sign on the most recent team member? How did I know I could trust this person? What role did their visuals play in influencing my decision? You can start to understand your buyers thought process. For me and Camila, a strong visual presense conveys an alignment of certain values and shows that priorities might be in line. When things look too DIY? It raises the red flag.   In this episode, we're chatting about:  The importance of brand clarity in photo and video shoots Headshots vs. brand photo shoots Balancing authenticity and aspirational imagery Building community building through visuals Navigating trends and creative risks in brand shoots Connect with me:  Website Join our email list!

We discuss a list of wedding rules, Sketch's OnlyFans past came to light, and Americans can now buy ammo from a vending machine. There was a number of passing this week, so we review Celebrity Obits and see how they affected the Death Pool standings!

Let's kick it! I recap my shows in Connecticut, my photoshoot, did some cheap retail therapy, explain why I quit p*rn, and why temporary pleasure is not worth permanent regret.
