ANOTHER GREAT INTERVIEW THIS WEEK, REFINER!!No 'Severance' production person is safe! Vinny P. is tracking them down and locking them into interview slots for the show. This week we talked to a legendary figure in the world of 'Severance' props and set dec. We've got "Penko the Sculptor"!!Penko's last name, Platikinov, is a bit of a mouthful. Rather than say it incorrectly, the folks around the 'Severance' set have gone to referring to this incredibly talented man as "Penko the Sculptor".  This is also a succint description of what he does around here. If it's a thing that's a little off...like say the Irv-head melon, or the statue of Kier in the town square...Penko probably had something to do with it. Penko is the 'anti-CGI' guy. Much of what he does I have attributed to CGI throughout my re-watch of the show. Nope! Those amazing visual tricks...like a dead seal carcass along the path, or a big statue in the town square...are all practical effects. Penko is that good. He's creating things you would believe were CGI if you didn't know any better. You're gonna love this guy! Hit 'play' Refiner! Penko has a LOT to share with us!!  ***A BIG 'thank you' to Research Volunteer/Producer Refiner Vinny P.

In this episode, Jen navigates through Irving Fryar Sr.’s experiences in moving the ball, not just in his 17-year long pro football career, but also in multiple competitive industries. The duo discuss the importance of showing up even when one doesn't feel like it, making adjustments and adapting as necessary, and the concept that not everyone is meant to be with one on their journey. Irv offers valuable insights on success in life and his current projects including a number of podcasts and his ministry. Irving Fryar is a retired NFL wide receiver who played college football at the University of Nebraska. Irv was drafted by the New England Patriots in the 1984 NFL Draft as the #1 Overall NFL Draft Pick. During Irv’s 17 seasons in the NFL, he was a 5x Pro Bowler and had multiple 1000-yard receiving seasons. In addition to playing for New England, Irv also played for the Miami Dolphins, the Philadelphia Eagles, and the Washington Redskins. Irv is currently a pastor and is the host of many shows: The Fryar Place podcast, A2D Radio Show, Wide Outs World podcast, and Dr. Irving Fryar Ministries.

This is a Grave Talks CLASSIC EPISODE! In 1929, the Egyptian Theatre in DeKalb, Illinois, opened its doors just as the Great Depression began. Built in the style of ancient Egypt, it became one of over 100 theaters inspired by the discovery of King Tut's tomb. For nearly a century, it has been a community landmark, hosting vaudeville shows, films, concerts, and events. But beneath the glamour and golden décor lies another story—one steeped in the paranormal. The Egyptian Theatre is said to be home to at least six distinct spirits. Witnesses report encounters with a woman in green, a loyal supporter named Irv who refuses to leave, and even the presence of a young girl whose laughter still echoes long after shows end. These phantoms seem tied to both the vaudeville era and modern times, suggesting the building is alive with history that refuses to rest. In this episode of The Grave Talks, we sit down with marketing and communications director Jeanine Holcomb to explore the haunted legacy of the Egyptian Theatre, its ghosts, and the stories that keep audiences coming back for more than just the shows. #EgyptianTheatre #HauntedTheatre #GhostStories #TheGraveTalks #HauntedIllinois #ParanormalHistory #LadyInGreen #HauntedPlaces #VaudevilleGhosts #HauntedEgyptian Love real ghost stories?

Happy Monday. It's time to get Mighty! Ryan is here to help review the 1993 classic, Rookie of the Year. ABOUT COOL RUNNINGS:When a Jamaican sprinter is disqualified from the Olympic Games, he enlists the help of a dishonored coach to start the first Jamaican Bobsled Team.AIR DATE & NETWORK FOR COOL RUNNINGS:October 1, 1993 | TheatersCAST & CREW OF COOL RUNNINGS:Leon as Derice BannockDoug E. Doug as Sanka CoffieRawle D. Lewis as Junior BevilMalik Yoba as Yul BrennerJohn Candy as Irving “Irv” BlitzerBRAN'S COOL RUNNINGS SYNOPSIS: We're in Jamaica, and it's not quite bobsled time. We meet Jamaican sprinter Derice running through town. It's November 1987, and Derice is preparing to qualify for the Olympics. He runs until he reaches the pushcart competition, where his best friend Sanka competes in the big pushcart race. Sanka crashes, but no problem—Derice keeps running.It's time for the qualifying race. Derice is the clear favorite. The top four finishers will represent Jamaica in the Olympics. Unfortunately, the runner next to him, Junior, stumbles and takes Derice down with him.Derice tries to convince the Olympic committee leader to rerun the race, but it's a no-go. On his way out, he notices a picture of his late father standing next to another man. He asks who it is, and learns that it's Irv Blitzer, a fellow gold medalist who once competed in bobsledding. Irv lives in Jamaica now, working as a bookie and living a miserable life.It takes a while, but Derice finally wears him down, and Blitzer agrees to give him a shot. They gather a group of people together, but Blitzer scares them off by showing a reel of bobsled crashes. By the time it ends, the room is empty—except for one of the other runners who fell with Junior, a grumpy guy named Yul. The problem is, there's no such thing as a three-man bobsled team. That's when Junior shows up. Yul tries to fight him when he walks in, but—like it or not—that's their squad.They get to work, and after a lot of crashing and falling, they finally manage to get into the bobsled in under six seconds.Now they need funding. After failing to land a sponsor, they try random fundraisers, but still fall short. Junior steps up and sells his fancy car to cover the rest of the costs.To Calgary they go. Blitzer registers the team and borrows a rundown bobsled from a former teammate. The Jamaicans struggle to adapt to, well, ice. Derice talks to an opponent who warns him that Blitzer is holding him back—that he hasn't been the same since he was caught cheating.Meanwhile, the other teammates get into a bar fight at a honky-tonk. Derice gives them a pep talk about locking in and focusing.It's time for qualifying, and Blitzer surprises them with their very own uniforms. They need to make it under 60 seconds—and THEY DO IT!They celebrate by painting their sled and naming it Cool Runnings. But soon after, they receive a letter: they've been disqualified. Blitzer storms into the rules committee meeting, insisting they not penalize the team for his past mistakes. After deliberation, the committee reinstates them.It's Olympic time. Back home, everyone watches as they march in the opening ceremonies. Junior's dad tries to pull him back home, but Junior stands up to him at last.The team's first run on the track is a disaster, and they finish dead last. Derice tries copying the Swiss team's methods, but Sanka pushes back—telling him they need to be themselves. On the second day, they race in their own style and finish eighth.During their final race, a loose screw causes one of the bobsled's blades to detach, sending the sled crashing and flipping over. Determined to finish, the team lifts the sled and carries it across the finish line. The crowd erupts in applause—including Junior's father.The epilogue explains that the team returned to Jamaica as heroes, and came back four years later to the Winter Olympics to compete as equals.

In this first episode of a multi-part Zone 7 series on the 1996 Olympic Park bombing, CSI Sheryl McCollum talks with her longtime colleague Irv Brandt, a former Atlanta police officer and U.S. marshal.

He recalls pulling the injured to safety, protecting bomb evidence, and witnessing the moment security guard Richard Jewell went from hero to suspect. The investigation later led to Eric Rudolph, a domestic terrorist tied to multiple bombings. Listeners will learn how frontline officers responded in the first minutes and what lessons still guide law enforcement today. Irv Brandt is a retired U.S. Marshal, a former Atlanta police officer, and a U.S. Navy veteran.

What is going on with the Breslow interview tactics? People are just looking to make the Red Sox look bad right now. He claims that the AI interview thing was only for low level job listings. Everyone should be mad about the Devers trade right now. Their priority was to find a team who would take the whole Devers contract. The reaction from the team was so nothing compared to how massive the trade seemed. The culture was not good. The return could have been better, obviously. The Red Sox are to blame for this. Bradfo explains his thoughts on the Joon Lee story. He calls the AI story dumb.

In today's episode, Dion, Jon, and Irv tackle a somewhat challenging topic, the most important what-if moments in NCAA and NBA basketball history. It can be challenging to determine the objective with a list like this, as it's a wide-ranging topic. Still, it definitely led to some quality discussion about important aspects of basketball. 

WELCOME BACK, REFINER! WE'RE ABOUT TO REACH THE HOLLOW!!Last we left our snowbound innies, they'd just met up with a disgusting dead seal. Irv wanted to eat it, no one else was so inclined.Now, the innies are about to reach their objective: Woe's Hollow. Here they will enjoy copious 'luxury meats' (?) along with unlimited toasted marshmallows and 4-ply tissue in the 'loo in case anything doesn't agree with them. Ah, if only it were all so simple and direct. Instead of roasting up some 'mallows, Ms. Huang is forced to toss them all in the fire. The innies get a bit too irreverent when discussing Dieter's strange proclivities AND Mark makes a visit to Helena's tent. He thinks he's visiting Helly R.'s tent. Helena does nothing to set him straight. It may be tender and loving, but it's still sexual assault because Mark does NOT know he's in bed with Helena Eagan!!The end is near, Refiners. The end of the ORTBO, that is. Also, the end of Irving B's innie career. It's huge, it's wild, it's PART TWO of the 'Woe's Hollow' odyssey. PROGRAMMING NOTE: There will be NO NEW episodes of "Severed" on 6/19 or 6/26.

A duck terrorized a Florida neighborhood and sent one person to the hospital. Also, did my wife capture a picture of a chupacabra? Two hikers in New York's Adirondack Mountains called 911 to report a third member of their party had died, but it turned out they had taken hallucinogenic mushrooms and were mistaken. I misread a headline, and now I really dislike pigeons. Apparently multiple psychics, including Nostradamus, predicted this will be a horrible year.   Mailbag: No moral victories for the Denver Nuggets - But… Working with Denver radio legends, Irv and Joe. And my thoughts on Joe Rogan, Bill Burr, as well as other podcasters.

In this heartfelt episode, Dr. Jim interviews Ben Yalom about his moving collaboration with his father, renowned psychiatrist Dr. Irvin D. Yalom, on their co-authored book, Hour of the Heart: Connecting in the Here and Now. Ben reflects on what it was like growing up in the shadow of a famous father—and in Palo Alto, no less, where not inventing a technological breakthrough by age 14 made you seem like a slacker. He shares how he forged his own unique path in theater, coaching, and therapy, while still honoring his father's influence.We also explore the origin of the book: Irv, facing memory loss and aging, invited Ben to help him capture and shape his reflections—many drawn from decades of work with patients. Having supported his father on previous writing projects, Ben stepped into this collaboration with both tenderness and clarity.Throughout the conversation, we dive into themes of aging, legacy, father-son connection, existentialism, and the power of being present. Whether you're a therapy enthusiast, a clinician, or someone interested in meaningful relationships across generations, this episode offers rich insights and warm humanity.Hour of the Heart speaks to both everyday readers and therapy nerds (like yours truly).

IRVIN MUCHNICK is author, most recently, of CONCUSSION INC: The End of Football As We Know It — his third book. He is a widely published journalist whose work has appeared in The New York Times Magazine, Sports Illustrated, People, and many other major magazines and newspapers. He has been interviewed on forums as diverse as Fox News' O'Reilly Factor and National Public Radio's Fresh Air with Terry Gross.In 2007, Irv published WRESTLING BABYLON: Piledriving Tales of Drugs, Sex, Death, and Scandal – a collection of his writings on pro wrestling behind the scenes. Soon thereafter, the sensational double murder/suicide of World Wrestling Entertainment's Chris Benoit brought WRESTLING BABYLON to the attention of Congressional investigators and led to the true-crime book CHRIS & NANCY: The True Story of the Benoit Murder-Suicide and Pro Wrestling's Cocktail of Death, published in 2009. Irv's books and blog writings moved to the center of scrutiny of WWE co-founder and former chief executive Linda McMahon's unsuccessful 2010 U.S. Senate candidacy in Connecticut on the Republican ticket.Over the last four years, Irv's work has helped elevate the story of widespread traumatic brain injury and its consequences for National Football League players and other professional and amateur athletes. His reporting has identified Dr. Joseph Maroon – medical director of WWE, team neurosurgeon for the Pittsburgh Steelers, and a widely quoted NFL consultant – as being among the key figures in manipulating research that was slow to identify and take seriously evidence of chronic traumatic encephalopathy. In the process, the $10-billion-a-year pro football industry was protected and NFL-affiliated doctors profited. The newest developments, including the suicide of retired player and NFL Players Association leader Dave Duerson, and the bargaining impasse between the NFL and the NFLPA, have increased public interest not just in the science of head injuries but also in how it is marketed by America's most popular sport, from the NFL level all the way down to the peewee leagues.Irvin Muchnick, who was assistant director of the National Writers Union from 1994 to 1997 and later a copyright litigation consultant, also is lead respondent of the landmark 2010 Supreme Court case Reed Elsevier v. Muchnick. Publishers Weekly calls the case “the central rights dispute of the digital age.” He blogs about writers' rights issues at http://freelancerights.blogspot.com.Irv can be contacted at info@muchnick.net.Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-opperman-report--1198501/support.

WELCOME BACK TO THE SEVERED FLOOR, REFINER!The gang's all back together in MDR. Well, of course, with the notable personage of Helena Eagan secretly trying to fill a 'Helly R.' shaped hole at the Diamond Desk. She's doing enough of a job to fool Mark...kinda. He might be suspicious.Mark is empowered by Lumon's new 'we're listening' campaign. He's ready to use and abuse the Hall Passes in a full-on blitz to locate Ms. Casey. He and Helena...er, I mean Helly...will head for the goat guys. Irv, you've got O&D. Dylan...uh, Dylan??! Dylan seems to really be fixated on refining. It's an all out assault on the severed floor as these newly liberated refiners discover new departments and new clues. And this is just part one!

Mark and Helly, and that's real life Helly R., are getting busy in another department. She wanted her 'own' memory. Mark S. was more than happy to make that happen.Dylan and Gretchen are 'enjoying the hugging' in the Family Visitor Center. These visits with Dylan's innie might be making Gretchen feel a bit guilty around outie Dylan. It's an interesting dynamic, and it's heating up fast. Irv is attending dinner with Burt, and Burt's Significant Other. The talk gets both steamy and frank around the dinner table.

When thirty-four-year-old St. Paul housewife Carol Thompson was murdered in the spring of 1963, her entire neighborhood was shocked by the evil that had invaded their middle-class neighborhood. As far as anyone knew, Carol was a happily married mother of four who appeared to have it all, but the cruel brutality of her murder suggested someone had hated her enough to kill her.When investigators began to dig deeper into Carol's life and background, they found the truth was that, far from the happy façade she showed the world, Carol Thompson's life was anything but happy. In the weeks that followed her death, investigators would uncover an unexpectedly complicated conspiracy involving several well-known criminals, all leading back to the one person no one wanted to suspect.Thank you to the Incredible Dave White of Bring Me the Axe Podcast for research and Writing support!ReferencesAssociated Press. 1963.
