Today's episode of The Rizzuto Show proves once again that a funny podcast can start classy… and immediately crash into absolute nonsense.We begin with Rich, a listener who won a charity auction and got to hang in-studio—because nothing says “dream experience” like watching a morning show slowly unravel in real time. What starts as a legit conversation about Missouri wine, running a winery, and booking bands quickly turns into the crew doing what they do best: derailing everything with jokes, bad guesses, and Craig fighting for his life trying to fix the studio cameras.From there, we roll into March Movie Mayhem, where the gang debates the best 90s movies… while also proving they may not actually remember the 90s. Brackets are discussed, nostalgia is questioned, and confidence is completely misplaced.Then comes the main event: Rafe's E-Memoriam. A listener email tries to call him out, and what follows is a hilarious, razor-sharp breakdown of context, comedy, and why maybe—just maybe—you shouldn't come in hot unless you're ready for the response. It's equal parts thoughtful and absolutely savage, which is kind of the sweet spot for this funny podcast.And just when things feel like they might level out, we discover something truly unsettling: how many squares of toilet paper people actually use. Let's just say… trust is broken, friendships are questioned, and hands should probably not be shaken for a while.We also get one of the greatest “3 & 5” game answers in show history (seriously, it's weirdly poetic), plus a deeply disturbing story about fake cremation ashes that somehow turns into a full Shark Tank-style pitch for turning your loved ones into… construction materials. Yes, really. No, we're not okay either.If you like your funny podcast with sarcasm, chaos, unexpected debates, and moments that make you laugh and question humanity at the same time—this episode delivers.Follow The Rizzuto Show → https://linktr.ee/rizzshow for more from your favorite daily comedy show.Connect with The Rizzuto Show Comedy Podcast online → https://1057thepoint.com/RizzShow.Hear The Rizz Show daily on the radio at 105.7 The Point | Hubbard Radio in St. Louis, MO.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.
There's a side of motorcycle training almost no one talks about — the mental pressure of learning new skills in front of other riders. Why can training make you feel like you've suddenly gotten worse before you get better? Why does confidence sometimes drop even when your skills are improving? Through rider Erik Wilkinson's experience, along with insights from expert trainer Chris Birch and Monica Birch, we explore what's really happening in your mind during training — and how to manage it so you come out a stronger, more confident rider.
Prezident Petr Pavel v pátek podepíše zákon o státním rozpočtu na rok 2026, i když má k němu výhrady. Podle Národní rozpočtové rady je výše schodku v rozporu se zákonem. „Podle standardních pouček by teď rozpočtová politika měla spíše brzdit,“ soudí ekonom a bývalý ministr financí Ivan Pilip. „Pes je zakopaný v tom, že ekonomika nerostla po covidu,“ míní ředitel think-tanku IDEA, předseda Výkonného a dozorčího výboru CERGE-EI a profesor na Kolumbijské univerzitě Jan Švejnar.

What if I told you that one of the most popular beauty treatments today is made form one of the most powerful toxins known to science?In this bonus episode, I'm breaking down what Botox actually is, how it went from food poisoning to a cosmetic staple, and why it's become so normalized that people are getting it down on their lunch breaks.

Air Date: 3/15/2026 Today we examine how a century of foreign intervention created incompatible national memories between the US and Iran and how Netanyahu exploited that history to maneuver Trump into a war he didn't understand, promising a quick decapitation strike while knowing full well it would become a months-long regional conflict, at minimum.

2. Author: Victor Davis Hanson. Title: *The Dying Citizen: How Progressive Elites, Tribalism, and Globalization Are Destroying the Idea of America*. This segment examines how eroded borders and lax immigration laws threaten the concept of citizenship. Hanson critiques the 1965 Heart-Celler Act for replacing meritocracy with proximity to the border and family ties, leading to a massive influx of illegal residents. He describes the 1986 Simpson-Mazzoli Act as a "disastrous" failure where promised border security was never delivered in exchange for amnesty. The discussion highlights how remittances to Mexico and the political "flipping" of states through demographic shifts have prioritized global interests and partisan loyalty over the traditional duties of a sovereign nation. (2)1940 SAN DIEGO
7. Author: Victor Davis Hanson. Title: *The Dying Citizen: How Progressive Elites, Tribalism, and Globalization Are Destroying the Idea of America*. The discussion shifts to globalization and the "Davos Man,"an elite class that seeks to transcend national sovereignty. These "anointed" individuals gather in places like Davos to push for global government, often using climate change as a crisis to justify singular government powers that override democratic consent. Hanson critiques the "citizen of the world" ideology as antithetical to national pride and traditional customs. He argues that these globalists favor erasing borders to mandate aggregate sameness, which historical precedents suggest can only be achieved through coercion and the use of force. (7)1947 LA
5. Author: Victor Davis Hanson. Title: *The Dying Citizen: How Progressive Elites, Tribalism, and Globalization Are Destroying the Idea of America*. This file addresses "evolutionaries" seeking to alter or bypass the Constitution to achieve political goals. Hanson defends the Electoral College, noting it prevents nationwide fraud and forces candidates to engage with the "hinterland," while progressives seek to nullify it via the National Voting Compact. He critiques the avoidance of the Senate's treaty powerin deals like the Iran nuclear agreement and the shift toward proportional representation in the Senate, which would ruin its role in slowing radical change. Finally, he warns against court-packing, viewing it as a direct attack on the judiciary's legitimacy. (5)1940 LA
4. Author: Victor Davis Hanson. Title: *The Dying Citizen: How Progressive Elites, Tribalism, and Globalization Are Destroying the Idea of America*. The focus here is on the "unelected" administrative state, which Hanson claims operates beyond democratic correction. He uses the "raisin administration committee" to illustrate how bureaucratic agencies can seize the fruit of a citizen's labor. The discussion explores the "Deep State," defined as a permanent bureaucratic class that holds contempt for elected officials and citizens alike. Hanson describes "La Resistance" within the government, where officials like James Comey and Andrew McCabe allegedly used their power to undermine a presidency, viewing themselves as "heroic" resistors rather than public servants subject to the law. (4)1941 LA
3. Author: Victor Davis Hanson. Title: *The Dying Citizen: How Progressive Elites, Tribalism, and Globalization Are Destroying the Idea of America*. Hanson discusses the decline of the American "Melting Pot" in favor of modern tribalism. He asserts that while the 20th century focused on absorbing diverse groups into a unified Americanidentity, the current political climate encourages a "voluntary separation"based on race and identity. Critiquing the shift toward "equality of results," Hanson argues that government-mandated winners and losers based on tribal characteristics ignore individual merit. He observes a retrograde return to a "one-drop rule" mentality, where obsession with racial heritage destroys national cohesion and mirrors the tribal strife James Madison sought to mitigate. (3)1945 LA
8. Author: Victor Davis Hanson. Title: *The Dying Citizen: How Progressive Elites, Tribalism, and Globalization Are Destroying the Idea of America*. This final excerpt examines how the COVID-19 pandemic accelerated the erosion of citizenship. Hanson argues that the pandemic empowered the unelected—symbolized by Dr. Anthony Fauci—to shutter small businesses while favoring big corporations like Walmart. He claims the "Zoom culture" allowed elites to remain safe and compensated while the working class faced the virus. Additionally, Hanson discusses the globalization of the crisis, noting how international figures initially protected China's narrative regarding the Wuhan lab. He concludes that the pandemic response demonstrated a profound failure of "the science" and a massive expansion of bureaucratic control. (8)1980 LA
1. Author: Victor Davis Hanson. Title: *The Dying Citizen: How Progressive Elites, Tribalism, and Globalization Are Destroying the Idea of America*. Hanson explores the classical importance of the middle class as the bedrock of a stable republic, drawing from Aristotle's view of self-reliant citizens. He argues that the historical strength of the American middle class—rooted in property ownership and autonomy—is being undermined by a "hollowing out" into two classes: the fabulously wealthy and a dependent "peasant" class. Hanson cites the Obama administration's figures "Pajama Boy" and "Julia" as symbols of a new state dependency that replaces Jeffersonian independence. This shift is particularly visible in California, where high taxes and regulations drive out the middle class. (1)1940 LA
6. Author: Victor Davis Hanson. Title: *The Dying Citizen: How Progressive Elites, Tribalism, and Globalization Are Destroying the Idea of America*. Hanson analyzes the modern resurgence of nullification and the weaponization of impeachment. He argues that sanctuary cities represent a left-wing nullification of federal immigration law, creating an "asymmetrical" system where states ignore laws they dislike. Furthermore, he contends that impeachment has evolved into a "campaign strategy"rather than a rare constitutional remedy, as seen in the two impeachments of Donald Trump. Hanson warns that these precedents—including the failure to enforce borders—distort the Constitution's intent and lead to a lack of substance in high-level political accountability. (6)1905 POTLAND

Host Curtis Chang and Dr. Jessica Hooten Wilson—Fletcher Jones Chair of Great Books at Pepperdine University— dive into Leif Enger's I Cheerfully Refuse, exploring why great novels still matter, how Christians can resist ideations of apocalypse with joy, and what faith-filled fiction reveals about beauty, truth, and survival in dark times.

The conversation continues with reactions pouring in from fans after the controversial ending to Team USA's win over the Dominican Republic in the World Baseball Classic. While the missed strike calls remain a major talking point, the hosts shift into a deeper discussion about what the game revealed about the tournament itself—both the excitement it creates and the flaws that still exist in how it's structured. Listeners call in to debate whether the Dominicans truly got robbed, how much the missed calls actually mattered, and whether teams should simply execute better in big moments. The discussion expands into ideas for improving the WBC, including whether later rounds should be played as short series instead of single elimination games. Along the way, the hosts highlight the incredible energy from Dominican fans in the stadium and why the passion surrounding international baseball continues to make the event feel unique despite its imperfections.

Quick corrosion, long-lasting engines, and mobility mods are on tap for this episode. Email podcasts@aopa.org for a chance to get on the show. Join the world's largest aviation community at aopa.org/join Full episode notes below: Patrick is looking for the right fit on a potential aircraft purchase. He had a shoulder replacement and lost some mobility in his right shoulder. He's wondering if he could get an accommodation on things like flap controls. Paul suggests he look for an older Cessna with the progressive flap switch, not the one with pre-selected detents. The hosts thing that up/down progressive switch would be a minor alteration and just a few wires. The pre-select flap lever is probably a major alteration and a lot of work because there's a lot going on behind the panel. Jeff has a Maule M7 on floats and is battling corrosion. Recently he did a salt water landing, sat for about 3 hours in the water, flew home, and his left main gear didn't rotate as he landed. He saw that the main forks had a bloom of corrosion that froze the wheel. He washed everything in fresh water, and then next day saw a bloom on the other gear as well. He is wondering if he had a stray current given how quickly it developed. Mike thinks it's unlikely because if the battery if off it's completely isolated from the rest of the system, meaning their shouldn't be a way for the battery to provide electrical current anywhere on the airframe. Lindsay recently purchased a Piper Lance and wants to make sure she keeps the engine going as long as she can. They go over the basics and make sure she is boroscoping the cylinders, fly it regularly, etc. Mark is wondering how soon is too soon to put in cowl plugs after flying. He has a Cessna 206 and he's wondering if he can put in the cowl plugs right away. The concern is about the plugs, not the engine, Paul said. The hosts all agree that he's fine to seal the cowl off as soon as he likes.

Cheese–powered arcade, the toddler zone, the retro arcade, the Mystery Funhouse throwbacks, the in-lobby candy shop with a waterslide running through it, and the multi-level Shipwreck Island Waterpark. Jared also shares how Westgate plans new concepts, how they think about every family member's experience, and what's next as they just added 40 new destinations during a major growth cycle.

At the crisis of his Republic, Plato asks us to imagine what could possibly motivate a philosopher to return to the Cave voluntarily for the benefit of others and at the expense of her own personal happiness. This book shows how Plato has prepared us, his students, to recognize that the sun-like Idea of the Good is an infinitely greater object of serious philosophical concern than what is merely good for me, and thus why neither Plato nor his Socrates are eudaemonists, as Aristotle unquestionably was. With the transcendent Idea of Beauty having been made manifest through Socrates and Diotima, the dialogues between Symposium and Republic—Lysis, Euthydemus, Laches, Charmides, Gorgias, Theages, Meno, and Cleitophon— prepare the reader to make the final leap into Platonism, a soul-stirring idealism that presupposes the student's inborn awareness that there is nothing just, noble, or beautiful about maximizing one's own good. While perfectly capable of making the majority of his readers believe that he endorses the harmless claim that it is advantageous to be just and thus that we will always fare well by doing well, Plato trains his best students to recognize the deliberate fallacies and shortcuts that underwrite these claims, and thus to look beyond their own happiness by the time they reach the Allegory of the Cave, the culmination of a carefully prepared Ascent to the Good. William H. F. Altman, having been persuaded by Plato's Republic that Justice requires the philosopher to go back down into the Cave, has devoted his professional life to the cause of public education. Since retiring in 2013, he has been working as an independent scholar on the continuation of Plato the Teacher (2012).

From the first wedding in Genesis to the wedding feast of the Lamb in Revelation, Scripture reveals something stunning: God delights in marriage—and He designed it for our good and His glory. In today's episode of the MY Devotional Podcast, Dr. Michael Youssef reminds us that a wedding is only the beginning; marriage is a lifelong covenant instituted by God before sin entered the world. Dr. Youssef explores why marriage is far more than a personal relationship—it's a creative force that forms families, homes, and entire cultures. Want to know where a society is headed? Look at how it treats marriage: commitment versus convenience, covenant versus redefinition, faithfulness versus fracture. And yet, every marriage faces strain—pressure, suffering, and the daily reality of human sinfulness. That's why Dr. Youssef introduces three foundational stones that hold healthy relationships together: Selflessness Forgiveness Conversation Over the coming days, he'll unpack each one to help you pursue a marriage crafted according to God's original design—one that becomes a masterpiece of beauty, strength, and Gospel reflection. Today's MY Devotional has been provided by Leading The Way. The voice you hear on the MY Devotional podcast is digitally generated with Dr. Youssef's permission. If today's devotional stirred a question, burden, or need for prayer, you don't have to walk through it alone.
Fitzy floats the idea the the Celtics suffered a "good loss"
This week I'm pleased to host TLP's friend Adam Jentleson—the founder and CEO of the Searchlight Institute, former Chief of Staff to Senator John Fetterman, and former Deputy Chief of Staff to Senate Democratic Leader Harry Reid—to make the case that the Democratic Party has built a billion-dollar idea machine and gotten almost nothing useful out of it.* Why do the progressive groups shaping Democratic policy seem to only represent the views and priorities of their own college-educated staffers? How do they keep getting away with it?* Why did prioritizing climate change become shorthand for “liberal elite”—and should Democrats stop talking about it entirely if they actually want to fix it?* Is there any potential 2028 candidate who would be willing to embrace “80-20” issues and break away from activist orthodoxy the way Donald Trump broke away from his party in 2015?In addition to his role at Searchlight, Jentleson is the author of an excellent book on the complicated history of the U.S. Senate and the filibuster, Kill Switch: The Rise of the Modern Senate and the Crippling of American Democracy.A transcript of this podcast is available at the top of the post page on our website.

Motorcycles aren't meant to back up. If they were, they'd all come with reverse. Sometimes, turning around requires a little creativity—especially on dead-end trails, in parking lots, on hills, or even in your garage. In this episode of RIDER SKILLS, we have Clinton Smout walking us through a number of turnaround methods. Some you might expect, while others may raise your eyebrows—but all of them can be useful tools in your rider skills toolbox.

I break down Andrej Karpathy's new open-source project, Autoresearch: what it is, how it works, and why some of the smartest people in tech are losing their minds over it. I walk through 10 concrete business ideas you can build on top of Autoresearch loops, from niche agent-in-a-box products to always-on A/B testing agencies. I also cover Karpathy's companion launch, Agent Hub, share community reactions, and show you step by step how to get started using Claude Code and a Colab GPU. I'm hosting a free workshop so you can build your business in the age of AI.

You need an NVIDIA GPU to run it (tested on H100), but you can rent one cheaply through Lambda Labs, Vast AI, RunPod, Google Cloud, or Google Colab. The fastest way to get started is to use Claude Code to walk you through installation, then run it on Google Colab with a T4 GPU runtime. Ten business ideas built on Autoresearch span niches like SaaS optimization, A/B testing agencies, trading backtests, CRM lead scoring, and done-for-you due diligence. Karpathy also launched Agent Hub — essentially a GitHub designed for agent swarms to collaborate on the same codebase. The project already has 25,000+ GitHub stars and is growing fast; early movers who tinker now build an unfair advantage.

A Note from James:In the Blondie song “Rapture,” which was the number-one song in 1981, Debbie Harry has this famous line: “Fab Five Freddy told me everybody's fly.”So the question is—who is Fab Five Freddy?This guy is one of the central figures in the birth of hip-hop culture. Not just rap music, but the whole ecosystem: graffiti, breakdancing, fashion, DJ culture, art, film—everything that eventually turned into a massive global industry.Hip-hop today represents hundreds of billions of dollars in music, fashion, and entertainment. But in the late '70s and early '80s it was just a small creative movement happening in New York.Fab 5 Freddy helped connect all those worlds. He bridged graffiti artists, musicians, downtown art scenes, and eventually MTV.He also just wrote a book called Everybody's Fly, and it was a huge honor for me to talk with him about the origins of hip-hop and how creativity actually grows.Episode Description:Before hip-hop became a global industry, it was a loose network of DJs, graffiti artists, dancers, and musicians creating something entirely new in New York City.Fab 5 Freddy was at the center of it.In this conversation, he explains how hip-hop emerged from a mix of street culture, art scenes, punk music, and experimentation with records and sound. He discusses the origins of graffiti tagging, the rise of DJs like Grandmaster Flash, and the cultural moment when Blondie's “Rapture” helped bring hip-hop into mainstream awareness.Freddy also shares how the first hip-hop film, Wild Style, helped unify the culture's elements—music, dance, graffiti, and fashion—and introduce them to a wider audience.The conversation then turns to the modern era: AI-generated music, the attention economy of social media, and why artists today may need to slow down and develop their work before exposing it to the world.What You'll Learn:How hip-hop emerged from a mix of music, graffiti, dance, and street cultureWhy early DJs searched old records for breakbeats to create new soundsHow the film Wild Style helped define hip-hop culture for the worldWhy artists today may need to resist posting unfinished work onlineHow creativity evolves when technology disrupts the music industryTimestamped Chapters[00:02:00] The Story Behind the Title Everybody's Fly[00:03:01] A Note from James[00:04:15] Meeting Biz Markie and the Culture of Collecting Hip-Hop History[00:05:35] How Jazz, Blues, and Soul Influenced Early Hip-Hop[00:06:22] DJs Digging Through Records to Find Breakbeats[00:07:40] Grandmaster Flash and the Science of DJing[00:08:41] Why Producers Became Central to Hip-Hop Music[00:09:54] Blondie's “Rapture” and Hip-Hop's Mainstream Breakthrough[00:11:00] The Downtown Art Scene: Basquiat, Keith Haring, and Andy Warhol[00:12:24] The Origins of Graffiti and Tagging Culture[00:13:48] Graffiti as Competition and Artistic Evolution[00:15:12] Punk Rock and Hip-Hop: Parallel Cultural Revolutions[00:17:47] The Idea for the First Hip-Hop Film Wild Style[00:19:02] Bringing Breakdancing, Graffiti, and Rap Together on Film[00:21:50] Lessons Modern Artists Can Learn from Early Hip-Hop[00:22:49] Why Posting Creative Work Too Early Can Hurt It[00:24:00] Social Media, Attention, and the Speed of Culture[00:26:00] Hip-Hop's Global Influence[00:29:00] The Birth of Conscious Rap[00:31:12] Directing KRS-One's “My Philosophy” Video[00:33:00] Finding Great Hip-Hop in the Streaming Era[00:36:00] Battle Rap and Lyrical Skill[00:37:00] Artists Who Still Push the Genre Forward[00:40:11] How Rappers Make Money Today[00:43:00] What Makes an Artist Stand the Test of Time[00:47:00] Sampling, Technology, and the Evolution of Music Production[00:54:00] AI Music and the Future of Creativity[01:02:00] What “Everybody's Fly” Really MeansAdditional Resources:Fab 5 Freddyhttps://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fab_Five_FreddyRapturehttps://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rapture_(Blondie_song)Wild Stylehttps://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wild_StyleGrandmaster Flashhttps://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Grandmaster_FlashKRS-Onehttps://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/KRS-OneDebbie Harryhttps://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Debbie_HarrySee Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

Cat & Cloud Podcast Cat & Cloud Coffee www.catandcloud.com/ Finding Joy in Every Season of Work: Part I – Ep #440 Summary In this episode, Chris and Jared (plus Casey) reflect on the early days that pulled us into specialty coffee and how those experiences shaped the work we're still doing today. From skateboarding friendships and barista competitions to building cafés and leading teams, we talk about how the things that bring joy evolve over time. As careers grow and responsibilities expand, the work changes—and sometimes the parts you loved most become harder to hold onto. We explore the idea that every season of life and business brings different sources of meaning, and that part of the real work is finding the through lines that keep the joy alive. This conversation looks back at where it all started while asking an ongoing question: how do you stay connected to the things that made you love the work in the first place?
