With the franchise now suffering its longest World Series drought since 1903, the hosts unleash a fiery post-mortem on the systemic flaws, exposing how the depth and versatility of a team like the Blue Jays have repeatedly trumped the Yankees' analytic agony. The guys dissect Anthony Volpe's vexing shortstop future, spar over who deserves to stay, and cap the hour with a no-holds-barred interview featuring Suzyn Waldman, who delivers her unfiltered, passionate hammer-drop on the state of the organization.

BT and Sal tear into the New York Yankees after a humiliating ALDS Game 3 loss to the Blue Jays, debating the fate of Aaron Boone's job and Aaron Judge's legacy. They agree the team has profoundly underachieved, citing the pitching woes, bullpen mess, and a "meek" offense that's striking out at a historic rate. It's a team failure, but the hosts furiously ask: how high up the hierarchy will the blame go for this "bloody" debacle?

What happens when you mix Keanu Reeves, a scenery-chewing Al Pacino, and a Faustian bargain?Andrew Neiderman's novel was originally going to be adapted in the early 90s, directed by Joel Schumacher and starring Brad Pitt, but casting Satan proved difficult and so the project was halted.Speak of the devil, the O.J. Simpson trial gave new life to this story, and everyone became interested in courtroom drama and corrupt lawyers. The movie was resurrected, with Keanu Reeves choosing it over Speed 2, and the production desperate to entice Al Pacino to play the devil. Maybe they made a deal with the devil? In a bizarre twist worthy of the film itself, a copyright violation lawsuit forced the studio to digitally amend key scenes, proving that even fictional devils face real-world consequences.Inspired by John Milton's Paradise Lost, Dante's Inferno, and the Faust legend woven into late 90s Manhattan, The Devil's Advocate remains a fascinating time capsule of '90s excess while asking timeless questions about the price of success and the susceptibility of human ambition and greed.

In a world increasingly dominated by visual and electronic noise, Robert Waxler and David Beckman's You Say, I Say: Staying Alive with Literature, Language, and Friendship (Rivertown Books, 2025) captures the enduring power of literature-not to resolve the great questions of human existence, but to help us explore those questions in ways that are eye-opening, life-changing, and profound. In September, 1962, two 18-year-old freshmen at Brown University named Bob Waxler and David Beckman first crossed paths. They quickly discovered they had a lot in common, especially an abiding fascination with language, literature, and the life of art. Four years later, as college seniors, they collaborated on a small book of poems, which brought them a flurry of attention, then faded into memory as the two friends began separate life journeys-Bob becoming a professor of literature at a Massachusetts college, David working as an advertising and promotion writer in New York with sidelines as a poet, playwright, and actor. In 2014, an article in the Brown alumni journal rekindled their connection. It sparked an exchange of emails that gradually blossomed into this book-an extended dialogue between two old friends on poetry, life, the passage of time, and the power of the written word. In You Say, I Say, Waxler and Beckman trade observations, opinions, questions, and arguments about the ways in which literature transforms, challenges, disturbs, and inspires us. Spurred by lifetimes largely dedicated to "deep reading," they debate the meaning and value of works ranging from Dante's Inferno and Shakespeare's King Lear to Tolstoy's Death of Ivan Ilych; the poems of Wordsworth, Blake, Coleridge, and Keats; and the works of T.S. Eliot, Kafka, Beckett and Joyce. They often uncover new and surprising facets of classic works in the glare of post-modern experience. And they even exchange a couple of new poems-their own work-triggering reflections on the creative process and its many unexpected twists. Along the way, Waxler and Beckman delve into questions that have haunted generations of readers and critics. And they reveal, directly and indirectly, how encounters with literature have shaped their intellects and their lives. Learn more about your ad choices.

In the wake of a chilling series of recent shootings and the shocking Kirk assassination, "No Way, Jose!" dives deep into the shadowy worlds of the Order of Nine Angles (O9A) and the notorious 764 network—two interconnected groups that embody the dark underbelly of extremism, occultism, and online radicalization.

As society grapples with these escalating threats, this episode uncovers the hidden connections that could explain the surge in targeted violence, offering a timely examination of how fringe ideologies morph into deadly actions.Joining Jose is expert guest Doc Inferno, a seasoned researcher and analyst specializing in occult extremism and online subcultures, who breaks down the intricate ties between O9A's esoteric rituals and 764's predatory operations, including their shared influences on vulnerable individuals.

Power of X-Men: The Greatest Comic Book Podcast in All of the Multiverse!
It's been twenty years since X-MEN LEGENDS II was released! Power of X-Men host Dayspring sits down with Video Game Director Dan Vondrak to discuss what it was like to develop X-Men Legends II: Rise of Apocalypse! How soon did the game go into development following the first entry? What did the story originally look like? How was it like to bring Archangel to the game? Why were Psylocke and Emma cut from the game? Who was originally suppose to be playable? And...most importantly...what would X-Men Legends III have looked like? Strap in, True Believers! This is a special episode you don't want to miss!
Your Stupid Minds returns to the deep well of Albert Pyun with another cyberspace type 90s movie about an evil VR arcade machine that turns you insane and then kidnaps you and is also Freddy Krueger. It's 1993's Arcade, starring Megan Ward, Peter Billingsley, John de Lancie, and Seth Green as "Stilts." After her mother's suicide, Alex (Ward) is struggling in school. During a visit to their favorite foggy subterranean arcade "Dante's Inferno," Alex and her friends check out a new VR machine called, uninspiringly, "Arcade," that makes you feel like you're INSIDE THE GAME despite it basically being a joystick and stationary Virtual Boy headset. After the amazing demonstration, Alex's boyfriend Greg (Bryan Dattilo) disappears, and Alex must find him. It turns out Greg was sucked INTO THE GAME and also the game is evil. She recruits Nick (Billingsley) to help. A visit to the video game studio and a talk with the game's creator provides surprisingly little information. He's just as confounded by his creation as everyone else. He doesn't know how it works or why it's evil, but they've got a Q4 financial report to release so it's gotta be released come hell or high water. Alex and Nick decide the only way to get their friends back (other friends are also sucked into the game both on and off camera) is to beat the game. Can they do it? And how convincing will these early 90s computer graphics be? This movie sat on the shelf for a few years. After the trailer's release, Disney sent them a cease and desist due to the game's not insignificant resemblance to Tron. They spent a few years replacing light cycles with skateboards before it unceremoniously sat on a different shelf: that of your local mom and pop video store.
The hot takes are truly hot this time folks. The public execution of a young father has resulted in a race to the bottom and your liberal cousin is at the head of the pack.

Ben Rogers, Jeff “Skin” Wade, Kevin “KT” Turner, and Krystina Ray fire up the Wayback Machine to revisit one of their most legendary pranks: the fake sports talk show known as The Sports Inferno, hosted by the chaotic duo Carl Spoon and Rational Bill.The victim? A well-meaning Broncos blogger who had no idea he was walking into a comedy ambush.
Jack is back as we discuss Paradiso, Jack's favorite part of Dante's Divine Comedy. I absolutely love getting to chat with him again (see a couple of earlier episodes linked below). We talk about why he loves Dante in general, and Paradiso in particular. Highlights include:Dante's bravery (or chutzpah!) in writing his poetry and scholarly works in Italian rather than Latin;Who Dante is for (spoiler--it's for YOU), and why (the title of this episode is a big hint!);How people of different ages see Dante in a different light;Why a map of Heaven is really hard to draw, especially compared to Hell and Purgatory.Jack wrote his thesis on part of Paradiso, and he has a lot of experience in the classroom with the Divine Comedy, so he brings a lot of his knowledge to expand on what we've been talking about for the last two weeks.This episode forms a kind of trilogy on Crack the Book: two weeks ago we discussed Inferno, and last week my friend Lisa and I covered Purgatorio. It's my hope that these three podcasts will inspire you to pick up your own copy of the Divine Comedy and jump in.Next week we start Shakespeare...so get ready.LINKTed Gioia/The Honest Broker's 12-Month Immersive Humanities Course (paywalled!)My Amazon Book List (NOT an affiliate link)Crack the Book, Inferno EpisodeCrack the Book, Purgatorio EpisodeCONNECTThe complete list of Crack the Book Episodes: https://cheryldrury.substack.com/p/crack-the-book-start-here?r=u3t2rTo read more of my writing, visit my Substack - https://www.cheryldrury.substack.com.Follow me on Instagram - https://www.instagram.com/cldrury/ LISTENSpotify - https://open.spotify.com/show/5GpySInw1e8IqNQvXow7Lv?si=9ebd5508daa245bdApple Podcasts - https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/crack-the-book/id1749793321 Captivate - https://crackthebook.captivate.fm

Alexander Concepcion first discovered his love for books through his Cuban-American parents in Miami, Florida. After burning his college diplomas, he moved to Texas and became one of the state's top-producing—and only taco-themed—independent real estate brokers, all while working part-time. Outside of real estate, he studies history, plays disc golf, hosts extravagant dinner parties, and travels the world. Alexander is on a mission to help small entrepreneurs rethink risk, approaching business through a human, relatable lens rather than academic theory or influencer hype. He calls his approach Survival First, a “Dante's Inferno for small entrepreneurs,” helping them navigate the challenges of building a business.

As we pass Arnaut Daniel, the last penitent soul of Mount Purgatory, let's look back over the discussions of poetry and lust in the seventh (and even sixth) terrace of the mountain.Dante has laid out a fairly straightforward theory of poetry through his encounters with three poets. Are these in a logical progression? Are they causally linked, not just sequentially?Join me, Mark Scarbrough, for some final thoughts (at least for now) about poetry, lust, and how we humans make meaning.If you'd like to support this work, please consider donating through this PayPal link right here.Here are the segments for this episode of WALKING WITH DANTE:[01:50] A progression of poets: Forese Donati, Bonagiunta Orbicciani, and Guido Guinizzelli.[07:20] Francesca was indeed an ambivalent figure in INFERNO--but not now, when we read through the gravitational lensing of COMEDY.[12:56] Simone Weil claims that the hope of religion (or for her, Christianity) is to turn violence into suffering, which can then be interpreted.
