It moved towards Antistrophe, Caoimhe, and Nicky through the dark as something other than itself. A creature of guile and hunger, whose taste for life is well developed and whose limbs are the limbs of others. Meanwhile, amidst the revelers of the High Masque, the moonlit wing's adventurers mix and mingle. Will they try to puzzle their way through the rhyming door, or sate themselves on delicacies and dances instead of dungeoneering… This week on Perpetua: The Castle Eschatonica 05 Perpetua Guide [Community Addendum Part 03] What's up every-freakin-body. It's THEUNFORGIVENIII and I decided to pick up on Nei's slack. Maybe he'll see what a good job I'm doing and come back to try to one up me. Then the real rivalry will begin… Anyway, it's boss fight time. I made a few updates to Nei's format. I KNOW that he says he doesn't wanna get some specific spoilers in these enemy rundowns but I think that's pretty fuggin lazy. Maybe you can learn a few things from a real gamer, Nei.

In Episode 147 of MAX Afterburner, former U.S. Navy TOPGUN fighter pilot Matthew “Whiz” Buckley delivers a powerful and wide-ranging debrief covering air combat, current military operations, the cultural divide in America, and the spiritual path of the warrior.Whiz breaks down the shocking report of a Kuwaiti F/A-18 Hornet shooting down three U.S. Air Force F-15E Strike Eagles, explaining how an engagement like this could unfold and what it reveals about the realities of modern aerial warfare. He also shares his thoughts on Operation Epic Fury and the broader strategic picture as military tensions escalate.The conversation then shifts to the growing cultural and political divide in America, highlighted by the backlash Olympic hockey gold medalists received simply for taking a congratulatory call from the President and attending the State of the Union.From there, Whiz dives into a deeper discussion about religious freedom, tolerance, and the difficult questions the West must confront when dealing with radical Islam. Drawing from his own combat aviation experience and years of service defending the Constitution, he explores the tension between America's commitment to religious liberty and the reality of confronting extremist ideologies that reject those same freedoms. It's an honest, thoughtful conversation about faith, freedom, and the values worth defending.Whiz also honors the courage of two extraordinary American aviators who were awarded the Medal of Honor, reflecting on the warrior ethos that defines those who willingly fly into harm's way.He then shares details about the upcoming Sacred Warrior Fellowship retreat taking place March 27–29, where veterans, first responders, and seekers gather in disciplined formation to reconnect with God and begin the journey of healing.The episode closes with a heartfelt prayer asking for peace on earth and God's guidance during uncertain times.In this episode:• Tactical debrief of the Kuwaiti F/A-18 shooting down three U.S. Air Force F-15E Strike Eagles• Analysis of Operation Epic Fury and what it signals strategically• The growing partisan divide and the reaction to Olympic gold medalists speaking with the President• A discussion on religious freedom, tolerance, and confronting radical Islamic extremism• Honoring two American aviators awarded the Medal of Honor• Sacred Warrior Fellowship retreat announcement (March 27–29)• A closing prayer for peace, wisdom, and guidanceSubscribe to MAX Afterburner on Apple Podcasts and Spotify, and watch the full episode on the No Fallen Heroes YouTube channel.

The USS Hornet fought in some of the biggest naval battles in world history, picked up astronauts returning from the first moon landing, and is allegedly one of the most haunted places in America. Three decades ago, this aircraft carrier was sold to a scrap dealer and seemingly destined for destruction until a group of preservationists saved the Hornet and turned it into a floating museum. Since the 1990s, the Hornet has been docked at the former site of Alameda Naval Air Station, but now the museum's management are exploring a move across the Bay to San Francisco. This episode features interviews with Russell Moore, the museum's Chief Experience Officer and author of the official book on the USS Hornet; and Bruce Douglas, a Navy veteran who served aboard the Hornet half a century ago and currently volunteers as a museum docent. Listen now to hear about USS Hornet history, how the Hornet was saved, and why it might be relocating.

News from the Ministry of Primary Industries reveals that it has found 3 secondary yellow legged hornet nests and successfully treated and removed them. Using tracking, trapping and ground surveillance, along with public notifications, the team has now located and destroyed 49 queens, 51 nests and hundreds of workers to date. Lloyd 'The Waspman' Carpenter discusses the update with Jesse.
Tammie Jo Shults developed an early passion for flying, overcoming numerous obstacles to become one of the first female F/A-18 Hornet pilots in the U.S. Navy. Before women were allowed in combat roles, she taught “Out of Control Flight” and served as a bogey/bandit against Top Gun students and other squadrons. After her Navy career, Tammie Jo flew over forest fires and later became a pilot for Southwest Airlines. Her skill and composure gained worldwide recognition on April 17, 2018, when she safely landed Southwest Flight 1380 after an engine failure at high altitude—saving 148 lives. Her memoir, Nerves of Steel, became a National Bestseller. Since retiring from commercial flying in 2020, she continues to volunteer as a pilot and serves on aviation boards. Her honors include an honorary doctorate in Humanities, induction into the International Aviation Hall of Fame, and the Wings Club of New York's Outstanding Aviator Award. Tammie Jo and her husband, Dean, live in Texas.

Send us a textIn this landmark season finale, The Great American Authors brings its sweeping literary and political journey to a powerful close by spotlighting a remarkable group of leaders who turned to fiction to tell their stories — Jimmy Carter, Marilyn Quayle, Newt Gingrich, Bill Clinton, and James Patterson — and by sharing major news from our own host, Randal Wallace.We begin with President Jimmy Carter's The Hornet's Nest, a deeply researched historical novel that reflects Carter's lifelong devotion to moral complexity, faith, and the human cost of conflict. It is not simply a former president writing fiction — it is a statesman continuing to wrestle with America's past through story.We then turn to one of the most overlooked voices in presidential-era fiction: Marilyn Quayle. With limited public material but unexpectedly strong reader reception, her novels — especially The Campaign — received the highest reviews of any of the books featured in this episode, a striking contrast to how rarely her writing is discussed today. It is one of the quiet surprises of the series.Next, we explore Newt Gingrich, whose prolific post-political career includes best-selling political thrillers and alternate-history novels, along with the children's books co-written by his wife Callista Gingrich. Together, they created one of the most expansive literary universes ever produced by a political family.From there, we dive into one of the most successful collaborations in modern publishing: Bill Clinton and James Patterson. Their three blockbuster novels — The President Is Missing, The President's Daughter, and The First Gentleman — are examined not just as thrillers, but as a masterclass in how insider political knowledge and elite commercial storytelling can fuse into global bestsellers. We also share James Patterson's own writing principles, offering practical insights for aspiring authors.The episode concludes with an announcement from host Randal Wallace, who unveils three major upcoming works: • 16 Leadership Lessons from the Cold War, the companion book to this podcast • A Riddle in the Sand, a contemporary political romantic thriller • An Ocean of Time, a novel of political scandal turned redemption set in the tropical paradise of Key West, Florida.Finally, we close the curtain on The Great American Authors itself — a series that examined how power, politics, and storytelling collide across generations of American history. This season, and this entire series, are dedicated to the memory of Gloria Wallace Bulmer, the beloved mother of our host, a former English teacher at Myrtle Beach High School, and a lifelong lover of American and British literature whose passion for books helped inspire everything this series became.This is not just a finale. It is a tribute — to stories, to history, and to the people who teach us to love them.

In this episode of Pixelated Playgrounds, Bryan, Josh, and Clint finally arrive in Pharloom and dive deep into Hollow Knight: Silksong. We all fell in love with Hollow Knight when it launched in 2017 and even covered it on the show back in 2019, making Silksong a long-anticipated return. Team Cherry—Ari Gibson, William Pellen, and Jack Vine—have come a long way since the original Kickstarter, and Silksong's journey from planned DLC to full sequel reflects a uniquely protracted and unconventional development cycle. Just as notable is the team's decision to remain intentionally small, preserving creative control, efficiency, and passion while collaborating with key contributors like composer Christopher Larkin to elevate the experience.Silksong represents a major shift from its predecessor, most notably through Hornet, a fully voiced and evolving protagonist whose presence reshapes both narrative and gameplay. The game emphasizes speed, verticality, and tool-driven combat, with Pharloom's design flipping Hollow Knight's downward descent into a constant upward climb. We dig into the game's layered storytelling—Hornet's personal arc, the history of Pharloom and its people, and the larger cosmic forces at play—alongside its thematic focus on song, memory, and organized religion. Along the way, we debate difficulty, movement quirks, crest builds, boss design, and the shard system for tools. We also discuss Silksong's ambitious three-act structure, multiple endings, and whether it not only lives up to the original Hollow Knight. So join us as we close out the year exploring Team Cherry's world of bugs, beasts, beauty, and bosses.Three Word Reviews:Bryan - Smooth as SilkJosh - Flight in FightClint - Solid Send Off

As global powers double down on militarism and defense, Daniel Zoughbie argues that the most transformative force in the Middle East has always come from citizen diplomacy. A complex-systems scientist and diplomatic historian, Zoughbie joins Mark Labberton to explore how twelve U.S. presidents have "kicked the hornet's nest" of the modern Middle East. Drawing on his work in global health and his new book Kicking the Hornet's Nest: U.S. Foreign Policy in the Middle East from Truman to Trump, Zoughbie contrasts the view from refugee camps and microclinic networks with the view from the Oval Office, arguing that American security rests on a three-legged stool of defense, diplomacy, and development. He explains why Gerald Ford stands out as the lone president who truly leveraged diplomacy, how the Marshall Plan model of enlightened self-interest can guide policy now, and why nationalism, not mere economics, lies at the heart of Gaza's future. Throughout, he presses listeners toward "citizen diplomacy" that resists pride, militarism, and fatalism. Episode Highlights "We've constantly ignored diplomacy." " You don't have to be enemies with people to get them to do what is in their own self-interest." "You can build skyscrapers in Gaza. You can build the Four Seasons in Gaza and it's not going to work. You're just going to have another war until you address that core issue of nationalism." "These three Ds defense diplomacy development are the three legged stool of American security and we know how important diplomacy and development are." "From Truman to Trump, only one president, and that is Gerald Ford, surprisingly the only unelected president, gets this right." "Pride—national pride, the pride of any one individual—is toxic. It's toxic to the individual. It's toxic to the nation. It's toxic to the world." "Foreign policymaking is not just something for secretaries of state and those in power. All of us in a democracy have a role to play."

Zoughbie is a complex-systems scientist, historian, and expert on presidential decision-making. He is associate project scientist at UC Berkeley's Institute of International Studies, a faculty affiliate of the UCSF/UCB Center for Global Health Delivery, Diplomacy, and Economics, and principal investigator of the Middle East and North Africa Diplomacy, Development, and Defense Initiative. He is the author of Kicking the Hornet's Nest: U.S. Foreign Policy in the Middle East from Truman to Trump and of Indecision Points: George W. Bush and the Israeli-Palestinian Conflict. His award-winning research has appeared in journals such as PLOS Medicine, Mayo Clinic Proceedings, and Social Science and Medicine. A Phi Beta Kappa graduate of UC Berkeley, he studied at Oxford on a Marshall Scholarship and completed his doctorate there as a Weidenfeld Scholar. Show Notes Middle East Background and Microclinic Origins Daniel Zoughbie recalls visiting the Middle East as a child—"frankly horrified" by what he saw UC Berkeley protests over the Iraq War and post-9/11 U.S. policy in the region Metabolic disease and type 2 diabetes as an overlooked "greatest killer in the region." Neighbors in the West Bank sharing food, medicine, and blood-pressure cuffs—leads to the "micro clinic" concept Good health behaviors, like bad ones and even violence, can be contagious through social networks Social Networks, Anthropology, and Security Social anthropology, political science, and international relations Medical problems as simultaneously biological and sociological problems Understanding Middle East security demands attention to decisions "at the very bottom" as well as "the view from above" October 7 and 9/11 illustrate how small groups of people can "change the world with their decisions." Complex Systems and Foreign Policy Complexity is always increasing, and diplomacy and development exist to slow it down. Definition of "complex system": as one where many inputs produce outcomes that cannot be reduced to single causes. "We almost have a new law here, which is that complexity is always increasing in the universe. And the role of diplomacy and development, as I see it in international relations, is to slow things down. It's to stop complexity from advancing so that people have time to cool their tempers and to solve major security crises." Type 2 diabetes as a model for thinking about how city planning, economics, relationships, and habits interact He applies that lens to international relations: nations, leaders, institutions, and history form a "cascade of complexity." From Refugee Camps to Presidential Palaces George Shultz and Tony Blair: decision-makers as "real human beings," not abstractions Theological and ideological forces—such as certain apocalyptic readings of scripture—that shape U.S. foreign policy Gnosticism and eschatology within American right-wing Christianity Painstaking global health work on the ground and sweeping decisions made in Washington, Brussels, or New York Twelve Presidents and One Exception Kicking the Hornet's Nest: analysis of twelve presidents from Truman to Trump through the lens of Middle East decision-making Core claim: Only Gerald Ford truly rebalanced the three Ds of defense, diplomacy, and development. U.S. policy in the Levant: heavy reliance on militarism, coups, and covert actions while underinvesting in diplomacy and development Claim: "Far better alternatives were on the table" for every administration, yet consistently passed over. Gerald Ford, Kissinger, and the Path to Peace Daniel contends that the 1967 and 1973 wars were both preventable and nearly became global nuclear catastrophes. Ford inherits the presidency amid Watergate and national division, but keeps Henry Kissinger at State. Ford presses Israel and Egypt toward serious negotiations, empowering Kissinger's shuttle diplomacy and personal ties. A sharply worded letter threatening to "reconsider" the U.S.–Israel relationship Ford's diplomacy and the development of Camp David and the enduring Egypt–Israel peace based on "land for peace." Pride, Personality, and Presidential Failure Did Ford's temperament keep him from making himself the center of the story? In contrast, many presidents and other leaders write themselves "thickly" into the narrative of the conflict. Pride—personal and national—as a toxic force that repeatedly undermines U.S. policy The Iraq War and democracy-promotion agenda and the self-defeating nature of moralistic, militarized crusades Marshall Plan and Enlightened Self-Interest George Marshall and harsh punishment after World War I helped produce Nazi Germany The Marshall Plan models an "enlightened way of viewing the American self-interest": rebuilding Europe and Japan to secure U.S. security. He contrasts that with the neglect of the Levant, where aid and institution-building never matched military activism. Marshall's genius lies in locating the intersection between others' deepest needs and American capabilities. Militarism, Iran, and Nuclear Risk Recent U.S.–Israel–Iran confrontation as an "extremely dangerous moment"—with 60 percent enriched uranium unaccounted for JCPOA as an imperfect but effective diplomatic achievement, but dismantled in favor of militarism Claim: Bombing Iran scattered nuclear material and increased complexity rather than reducing the threat. He warns that one nuclear device could be delivered by low-tech means—a boat or helicopter—endangering civilians and U.S. forces in the Gulf. The only realistic path forward: renewed multilateral diplomacy between U.S., Israel, Iran, Russia, China, Pakistan, India, and regional actors Ethical Realism and Max Weber "Ethical realism"—Max Weber's distinction between the ethic of the gospel and the ethic of responsibility Statespeople bear responsibility for using force, yet the greatest can still say "here I stand and I can do no other." Claim: True leadership seeks a higher ethic where national interest aligns with genuine concern for others. Gaza, Nationalism, and Two States Welcoming the end of active war between Israel and Hamas and critiquing reconstruction plans that ignore politics Conflict is fundamentally nationalist: a struggle for self-determination by both Jewish and Palestinian peoples Claim: Economic development without a credible political horizon will not prevent "another October 7th and another terrible war." In his view, only partition of mandatory Palestine into two states can meet legitimate self-determination claims. For example, "You can build skyscrapers in Gaza… and it's not going to work" without addressing nationalism. Citizen Diplomacy and a Better Way Foreign policy is not only the work of secretaries of state; democratic citizens have responsibilities. American University of Beirut and the Gaza Baptist Hospital as fruits of citizen diplomacy Claim: Educational and medical institutions can change lives more profoundly and durably than military campaigns. Redirecting resources from bombs to universities and hospitals to reduce the need for future military interventions An invitation to citizen diplomacy: informed voting, sustained attention, and creative engagement for a more just peace Production Credits Conversing is produced and distributed in partnership with Comment Magazine and Fuller Seminary.
Daniel Zoughbie discusses Kicking the Hornet's Nest: U.S. Foreign Policy in the Middle East from Truman to Trump, arguing that Truman's one-sided recognition of Israel and decades of U.S. overreliance on defense distorted the region's trajectory. He traces missed off-ramps from Oslo to the Olmert–Abbas talks, explaining why partition remains the only durable framework for satisfying both nationalisms. Zoughbie recounts how polarization, trauma, and mistrust—along with U.S. missteps—undermine peace efforts even when viable plans emerge. Plus: Biden's rejected immigration tools, the inflation legacy of the American Rescue Plan, and a Spiel on Zohran Mamdani as the mispronounced word of the year.
