Daniel is joined this month by Evan, an old pal from college and a recent father who has found his time for gaming evaporate, but he's still able to find some time to participate in the genre defining MMO World of Warcraft, which he's been playing consistently since launch, now in it's 21st year. They discuss what it's like for Evan to be married to a popular Twitch streamer. Evan gets into the game's longevity and what keeps people coming back for so long, but it's also revealed to maybe not be a great thing for people to try jumping into at this point in the game's history if they're not familiar with MMOs. In the backlog section, they recap King's Quest (2015) and Evan challenges Daniel to play the arcade-y Sega classic Shinobi 3. They also have a bit of a general chat about old games and remakes/sequels meant for people in their 40s.0:00:00 - Old Dads0:02:51 - Welcome to the Show, Evan!0:16:31 - What Are You Playing?

Carl and Mike get into some of the top sports headlines including Raheem Morris addressing the reason for the firing of Ike Hilliard to which the guys discuss whether or not Morris' reasoning was satisfactory enough or does it still seem as if Hilliard was a scapegoat for their poor offensive performance.

Mike and Steve interviewed D. Orlando Ledbetter, the Falcons' beat writer for The Atlanta Journal-Constitution. Ledbetter questioned Atlanta's decision to fire WR coach Ike Hilliard. He criticized Falcons QB Michael Penix's poor performance in their 30-0 loss to the Carolina Panthers.

Carl and Mike get back to Falcons talk and share more thoughts on the changes the team has been making since yesterday including Ike Hilliard being fired, which Mike believes is more like 'window dressing' and Hilliard unfortunately appears to be a scapegoat.

In this Season Finale episode, Hilliard sits down with actor/writer/prod/director NOEL BRAHAM - co-founder of the hit MICHEAUX FILM FESTIVAL now in its 7th year and killing the game on the circuit!HIGHLIGHTS: The Power of “YET," lessons from his family growing up, becoming an actor, climbing many mountains, becoming a filmmaker and producing a Webseries and daytime Emmy-nominated short films, the power of community, co-founding and producing the Micheaux Film Festival and so much more!Noel is an Emmy-nominated filmmaker, founder, and master of making gold on a budget tighter than his schedule. As the visionary behind the Micheaux Film Festival, he's built one of the fastest-growing multicultural film festivals in the country, while simultaneously directing, producing, writing, and probably acting out something in the back of an Uber. Born with a camera in one hand and an unshakable belief in multicultural stories in the other, Noel turned his journey from living in a hostel to helming red carpets into a movement. His work sits at the intersection of impact and innovation, combining soul-stirring narratives with social relevance...and maybe a sly wink to every industry gatekeeper who ever said "no."Noel's latest indie feature, Angel City, starring SNL star Chris Kattan, is a gritty, heartfelt love letter to Los Angeles that blends social commentary with cinematic ambition. Inspired by his own experience of living out of his car while chasing a dream, the film pulls back the curtain on the harsh realities of Hollywood and the homeless community.A true creative Swiss Army knife, Noel has collaborated with brands like Sony, Amazon, and Apple, while continuing to champion emerging talent who have more grit than followers. He's known for being equal parts strategist and storyteller and his superpower? Turning a three-person crew and a Craigslist location into something that looks like it came out of Warner Bros. When he's not running a festival, pitching a project, or jumping on a Zoom in a button-up and gym shorts, you can find him praying, hyping indie artists, or asking Chat GPT how to survive on three hours of sleep.

In the small yet vibrant town of Stanley, Daughter of the Stars Theater stands as a shining example of what dedicated community members can achieve with passion and ingenuity. Recently, Janet Michael from The Valley Today had a conversation with key figures from the theater to uncover the latest happenings at this blossoming cultural center. Gina Hilliard, President of the Luray/Page Chamber of Commerce, kicked off the conversation, reflecting on a busy summer involving the state softball tournament. Despite the heat and long hours, the hard work paid off as local teams walked away with impressive titles. This local success story transitioned into the introduction of Patrick Burns, Director of Operations for Daughter of the Stars Theater, who joined the Zoom call along with Colton Wolf, a board member and the theater's Director of Communications. The discussion quickly revealed exciting developments at the theater. Patrick shared significant strides forward since the theater's last appearance on the show in May 2024, including the addition of functional bathrooms and the beginning of an ambitious new project: an in-house restaurant called Nighthawks, modeled after the iconic Edward Hopper painting. The restaurant aims to elevate the theater-going experience, providing a seamless blend of dining and entertainment. Not stopping at infrastructural improvements, Patrick announced the theater's first major grant-funded program: a cigar box guitar summer camp for middle schoolers, aimed at immersing youths in local Appalachian culture by building and playing their own instruments. This initiative aligns perfectly with the theater's mission to engage, educate, and inspire its audience, as he emphasized the importance of hands-on learning and cultural preservation. Patrick highlighted the educational and communal aspects of the theater's YouTube presence, which features videos about notable historical events, such as the Shenandoah Valley's pivotal role in the 1944 Normandy Invasion. These videos, gaining significant traction online, underscore the theater's broader mission to make local history accessible and engaging. Expanding on the theater's multifaceted role in the community, Colton spoke to the unique challenges and rewards of connecting Stanley's middle schoolers with rich cultural experiences often overlooked by larger organizations. This commitment to serving a demographic often left out of educational programs further highlights the theater's inclusive and forward-thinking approach. Engagement wasn't just limited to the theater's internal activities. Gina and Janet further discussed the numerous benefits of being a chamber member, emphasizing how connections and community involvement can accelerate local businesses' growth. The Luray/Page Chamber extends support in various forms, from marketing assistance to grant endorsement letters, aiding endeavors like Patrick's theater expansion. The conversation concluded with a reminder of the many resources available to small business owners in Stanley. Upcoming Chamber events like the Women in Business social and various educational seminars were promoted, illustrating the community's vibrant and supportive business environment.

In this episode, Jerry Bradshaw and Dr. Stewart Hilliard discuss: The influence of European sport dogs in early North American working dog training. Benefits and challenges of introducing KNPV-trained dogs to the American market. Evolution of Eastern European working dog trade.  Sourcing and importing working dogs. Institutional breeding programs, increased costs, and decreased quality. The future of dog training with kynology.   Key Takeaways: KNPV (Royal Dutch Police Dog Association) dogs were the gold standard for transitioning sport dogs to dual-purpose police dog prospects.  KNPV dogs were not trained to distinguish between equipment and humans, which gave those early Malinois dogs a bad reputation. Dogs that come from a deprived background with limited experiences often need to be deprogrammed before they can be taught to forget, then taught to learn what they need to know. Don't kill your dog by playing with it. The dog's reward is not a toy; it's a reward. Toy implies play, and these are working dogs. Malinois and German Shepherd dogs are not fully adult dogs until 2.5-3. Younger dogs are more vulnerable to mistakes and stress, leaving you, as the trainer, with the technical burden of not making many mistakes.   "I think the future is going to be agency-based breeding, heavily informed by scientific practice, but also with strong participation of practitioners - practical dog people who know how to produce results. Those are the agencies that are going to do really well." —  Dr. Stewart Hilliard   Contact Stewart:  Website: https://www.caninetrainingsystems.com/  Book:  Schutzhund, Theory and Training Methods - A Book by Susan Barwig and Stewart Hilliard, Ph.D. - https://www.caninetrainingsystems.com/product/B-SCH-BAR/Schutzhund-Theory-and-Training-Methods-A-Book-by-Susan-Barwig-and-Stewart-Hilliard-PhD    Get Jerry's book Controlled Aggression on Amazon.com   Contact Jerry: Website: controlledaggressionpodcast.com Email: JBradshaw@TarheelCanine.com Tarheel Canine Training: www.tarheelcanine.com YouTube:  tarheelcanine Twitter: @tarheelcanine Instagram: @tarheelk9 Facebook: TarheelCanineTraining Protection Sports Website: psak9-as.org Patreon: patreon.com/controlledaggression Slideshare: Tarheel Canine Calendly: https://calendly.com/tarheelcanine  Tarheel Canine Seminars: https://streetreadyk9.com/  Tarheel Canine Student Portal: https://tcstudentportal.com/    Sponsors:  ALM K9 Equipment: almk9equipment.com PSA & American Schutzhund: psak9-as.org Tarheel Canine: tarheelcanine.com The Drive Company: https://thedriveco.com/  The Drive Company Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/thedrive.co    Find out more about Hold The Line Conference 2024 at https://htlk9.com/    Train hard, train smart, be safe.   Show notes by Podcastologist Chelsea Taylor-Sturkie   Audio production by Turnkey Podcast Productions.

In this episode, Hilliard and guest co-host, writer/producer Dwain Worrell sit down for a super fun conversation with Co-Executive Producer CHRIS RAFFERTY (THE FLASH, COBRA KAI & LUCIFER)!Chris has been a lifelong artist in many different fields. He grew up an illustrator with dreams of drawing comic books. Made short films while earning a film degree at UC Santa Barbara. Spent time on stage acting and in front of cameras doing improv. All while earning a living in a decade-plus career as a graphic designer.But a crossroads in life inspired him to drop everything to go all-in on his greatest passion (and what he'd been spending years of early mornings & weekends on) — his writing. His career change was complete after he earned a spot in the prestigious Warner Bros Television Writers' Workshop, and went on to write & produce for the first season of THE FLASH, the final season of COBRA KAI, and all 6 seasons of LUCIFER.When he's not hustling for his next staff job or developing his own shows & original comic books, Chris can be found doing hard labor (renovations & yard work) for his Valley home and enjoying life with his Brazilian wife and her two Portuguese-meowing cats.Another dope episode!Subscribe, like, follow, share & 5-star review!Our Motto: “Keep it GAME all day!WWW.SCREENWRITERSRANTROOM.COMFor information, Merch (NEW T-SHIRTS/HOODIES), and all things Rant Room!https://screenwriters-rant-room.printify.me/productsEMAIL:ScreenwritersRantRoom@gmail.com⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠@Hilliard Guess on all social media@Hilliardguess, bsky.socialIG: @ScreenwritersRantRoomGuests:@Chrisrafferty@Worrell_dwainWE ARE NOW OPEN TO SPONSORSHIPS AND BRANDING OPPORTUNITIES⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ :Screenwritersrantroom@gmail.com

On December 20th, 1980, 19-year-old Jean Hilliard experienced what doctors call medically impossible. After her car slid off an icy road in rural Minnesota during a blizzard with temperatures at -22°F, Jean made the difficult decision to walk two miles through whiteout conditions to reach her friend Wally Nelson's farmhouse. Dressed only in cowboy boots and a winter coat, she battled brutal winds and life-threatening cold for over an hour. In a cruel twist of fate, Jean collapsed just 15 feet from Wally's front door, where she lay face-down in the snow for six hours. When Wally found her the next morning, she was frozen solid - literally crystallized, with her body rigid as a board and her skin hard as stone. Hospital staff initially thought he was bringing them a corpse, as her body temperature was too low to register on their thermometers and they couldn't find a pulse or blood pressure. Yet incredibly, Jean not only survived but made a complete recovery with no amputations or permanent damage. After 49 days of observation, she walked out of the hospital completely healthy, leaving medical professionals baffled. This episode explores the science behind her miraculous survival, featuring insights from hypothermia expert Dr. Gordon Giesbrecht (aka "Professor Popsicle"), and examines how Jean returned to a normal life after becoming briefly famous as "The Miracle Girl from Lengby, Minnesota." 0:00 Introduction to Case Knives 00:32 Welcome to the Crux True Survival Story Podcast 00:53 Introducing Jean Hilliard's Incredible Survival Story 01:39 The Fateful Night Begins 03:47 Jean's Struggle Through the Blizzard 10:05 The Collapse and Discovery 15:12 The Medical Miracle 18:25 Wally Nelson's Dilemma 21:39 Arrival at the Hospital 23:38 The Fight for Survival 24:54 Ruff Greens 26:47 Primitive Rewarming Methods in the 1980s 28:22 Jean's Miraculous Recovery Begins 31:10 Jean's Unbelievable Survival 33:26 The Science Behind Hypothermia Survival 41:35 Jean's Life After the Incident 45:55 Professor Popsicle and Hypothermia Research 50:36 Final Thoughts on Human Resilience Email us! thecruxsurvival@gmail.com Instagram https://www.instagram.com/thecruxpodcast/ Get schooled by Julie in outdoor wilderness medicine! https://www.headwatersfieldmedicine.com/ References for Jean Hilliard's Story Montreal Gazette - "Frozen Solid Teen Girl on Way to Full Recovery" (December 30, 1980) The New York Times - "Dakota Teen-Ager Recovers After Being 'Frozen Stiff'" (January 2, 1981) Thirteen Towns newspaper, Fosston - Local coverage with headline "Woman, 19, baffles doctors: Terrible frozen ordeal has happy ending" MPR News (Minnesota Public Radio) - "Frozen.

Husband-and-wife music duo, Kenny and Claire Hilliard both grew up in the upstate of South Carolina before God took them the long way around to finally settle in Nashville, TN.  In 2015, during Kenny's tenure as a senior pastor and worship leader in Asheville, North Carolina, he was diagnosed with a brain tumor. Shortly after successful surgery to remove the tumor, Kenny received a second diagnosis, Ehlers Danlos Syndrome—a degenerative genetic disease that left him temporarily impaired. The couple embraced a return to music during Kenny's recovery, founding a music teaching studio and penning modern hymns for their home congregation. Kenny and Claire also share some of their travel experiences from being on the road six months of the year touring with their 3 kids in an RV across the country. This special couple is honest about the struggles they've endured and continue giving God glory via their music through it all.
