31 years after the original Toy Story changed animation forever, the franchise returns with a fifth installment that's better than the much-maligned fourth — and surprisingly timely. Adam Holtz from Plugged In joins Brian From to break down the plot: Woody is now part of a street toy gang after kids traded toys for screens, and the story leans hard into questions about childhood, isolation, and what happens when a tween's parents finally hand over a tablet. Then a hard pass: The Death of Robin Hood starring Hugh Jackman is a deeply cynical, blood-soaked reimagining where Robin Hood was never noble to begin with — "Graveheart" might be the more honest title. But there's a genuine recommendation in the mix: Young Washington from the Irwin brothers (the team behind Woodlawn and Jesus Revolution), a well-made historical drama about a young, unproven George Washington trying to earn the woman he loves and the respect of his country decades before the Revolution.

Does Australia's favorite wildlife warrior rub you the wrong way?

The Scott brothers saw opportunity when the ‘Crapper’ started to become a household name. Thank you Dave Young: Welcome to the Empire Builders Podcast, teaching business owners the not so secret techniques that took famous businesses from mom and pop to major brands. Stephen Semple is a marketing consultant, story collector and storyteller. I’m Stephen’s sidekick and business partner, Dave Young. Before we get into today’s episode, a word from our sponsor, which is, well, it’s us, but we’re highlighting ads we’ve written and produced for our clients. So here’s one of those. [Kooler Garage Door Ad] Dave Young: Welcome back to the Empire Builders Podcast. Dave Young here with Stephen Semple and Steve just whispered the name of the next episode and we were chatting about it just as the recording started. But the theme is Scott Paper. Stephen Semple: Yes. Dave Young: And immediately I went to the office for some reason, like Dunder Mifflin. Stephen Semple: I guess because they sell paper, but yeah. Dave Young: Yeah. Well, and Michael Scott. It’s like, okay, but Scott, so this is toilet paper. Stephen Semple: Correct. Dave Young: Yeah. And probably some other things, but toilet paper primarily. Stephen Semple: Well, toilet paper and paper towel. Dave Young: Paper towels. Yeah, Scott. Stephen Semple: Yeah. Dave Young: Okay. Stephen Semple: Yeah. Dave Young: I’m guessing some of the things we’re going to be talking about, trees and bathroom kind of stuff. Stephen Semple: Mainly bathroom kind of stuff. Yeah. Dave Young: Okay. Stephen Semple: They became a big business in 1995, they were acquired by Kimberly Clark for $9.4 billion. And at the time that they were acquired, they were doing 3.6 billion in sales and basically they’re the inventor of basically toilet paper and paper towel as we know it today. Dave Young: Okay. Stephen Semple: They kind of got the whole thing going. They were founded in Philadelphia, two brothers, Clarence and Irwin Scott in 1879. And to really understand the birth of this company, we need to understand the world in the late 1800s. Dave Young: Well, yeah. I mean, corn cobs and I guess a handful of poison ivy leaves. Stephen Semple: Moss, grass, hay. Dave Young: Yeah, all of those things. Stephen Semple: Yeah. And this is the time that’s actually considered America’s second industrial revolution. So while things are modernizing and the country’s changing with electricity, factories and roads and stuff along that lines, modern plumbing, especially in homes, was definitely not there yet. And hygiene was like primitive, man. Cities were bad smelling and full of animal and human waste because if you think about it, animal was still the primary mode of transportation, right? Dave Young: But yeah, the streets are full of it. Stephen Semple: Yeah. Most homes lacked indoor plumbing. It was chamber pots and things along that lines. And like you were talking about, in terms of personal cleaning, it was grass. The one that got me the most was corn cobs. Dave Young: Yeah. Stephen Semple: Yeah. And really things had not changed much from the times of early Rome really. I mean, it was pretty primitive. Dave Young: The only way to get rid of it is get rid of it. Stephen Semple: Now there was the introduction of the flush toilet, which was starting to be popularized by an English plumber by the name of Thomas Crapper. Dave Young: Crapper, right. Stephen Semple: Yeah. Yeah. Which I always find sort of funny because when people say, “I’m going to go use the crapper,” it’s not an insult. You’re actually talking with the guy who made it… He didn’t invent it, but he popularized it. Dave Young: I wonder, without being vulgar, I wonder if the phrase “take a crap” is shortened for… It was crapper before anybody called it crap. Stephen Semple: Yes, it was. Dave Young: Yeah. Stephen Semple: I think there’s pretty good etymology for that. Dave Young: Yeah. Heading to the crapper. Yeah. Okay. Stephen Semple: Yep. Dave Young: It just occurred to me. I’m slow on the uptake. Stephen Semple: Yeah, no, absolutely. I expected us to go there. So the toilet was starting to come into homes of wealthy Americans, but this created a need for a new type of product because they need something that was good for cleaning but was also flushable. These old methods would clog these expensive new systems. Dave Young: Sure. Yeah. You don’t want to throw a corn cob down crapper. Stephen Semple: Right. So here’s this whole idea of an emerging new technology that’s changing the world and how often in this podcast have these empires been developed right at these times where there’s a new technology coming and that new technology presents new opportunities. And the reason why I’m harping on this is we’re there today. There’s a new technology emerging and there’s all this debate about is it going to be good? Is it going to be bad? Let’s think about what are the opportunities it presents. Dave Young: Sure. Stephen Semple: Because we’ve seen over and over again in this podcast emergence of unimagined companies because of these issues. It’s a time of change. So in Philadelphia, there’s the two brothers, Clarence and Irwin. The paper company is actually struggling. It’s a paper converting business. Basically what they’re doing is they’re bringing in large industrial rolls of paper and cutting it down to sizes for clients. Now their business is struggling, but they see this new opportunity because of the rise of indoor toilets. So they create a bold idea of selling paper specifically for bathroom use. And let’s face it, it’s a significant upgrade from the course alternatives. Dave Young: Absolutely. Stephen Semple: One of the things that amazed me is that even magazines were being used and it was so well known that the Farmer’s Almanac even put a little hole in the corner- Dave Young: So you could hang it in the outhouse. Stephen Semple: … so you can hang it in the outhouse. Dave Young: Sure. You don’t want to go forward. You used yesterday’s pages, not next week’s. Stephen Semple: Yeah. Dave Young: Yeah. Sears, Roebuck catalogs, all of those things. Stephen Semple: So well recognized that when they were printing them, they were like, “Okay, we need to print this so that it gets used for this.” Dave Young: Yeah. Stephen Semple: Anyway, sorry to go backwards, but it’s just something that just jumped out at me. So they decided that they were going to create a paper specifically for bathroom use, which was way better than the alternative. So they initially cut the paper in the small stacked squares. That was how they did it. Now there was a challenge because of the prudishness of the Victorian era made it taboo to even discuss bathroom related products. So if you can’t discuss it- Dave Young: And you still feel that echo today. Stephen Semple: Yeah. If you can’t discuss it, how do you promote it? So what the brothers did, they pioneered this idea of a private labeling strategy because again, that was new. It wasn’t really being done in that day. So instead of putting their own name on the product, they branded the toilet paper with the names of the local drugstores and merchants. This allowed a customer to purchase the product discreetly. They could just put it on a list to a clerk and the trusted store name basically provided the stamp of approval. Dave Young: Gotcha. You could get someone to prescribe it. Stephen Semple: Basically. And somehow, even though they didn’t promote it, the word of mouth got out there and the strategy was a success and the business boomed, but they had another problem. Dave Young: Stay tuned. We’re going to wrap up this story and tell you how to apply this lesson to your business right after this. [Using Stories To Sell] Dave Young: Let’s pick up our story where we left off and trust me you haven’t missed a thing. Stephen Semple: And somehow, even though they didn’t promote it, the word of mouth got out there and the strategy was to success and the business boomed, but they had another problem. They had a bottleneck because this cutting of the sheets was really time and labor-intensive. So they need a better way to produce the product. And what they saw was an innovation that was done by the post office. In the 1850s, the post office started to use perforated stamps. Dave Young: Okay. So you buy a roll- Stephen Semple: You’d get a roll of stamps and it was perforated, right? Dave Young: Yeah. Stephen Semple: So Irwin Scott took this idea and applied it to paper, put the paper on a roll with perforations allowing the customer to tear off sheets. Dave Young: Beautiful. Stephen Semple: Basically the modern day toilet roll. Dave Young: Yeah, love it. Stephen Semple: So this was the 1890s that invention basically was brilliant in terms of saving time, cutting costs. By the turn of the century, the company had about 100,000 in capital, which is like three million today. The stigma around toilet paper faded and they began marketing it under their own name and transforming the company into this mass market enterprise. Dave Young: This answers the age-old question to me of which came first? The toilet roll holder or the toilet roll. Stephen Semple: The toilet roll came first. Dave Young: So roll came first. Stephen Semple: Yeah, because basically sales pretty quickly got to about $500,000 a year, which is like 16 million today. So it’s 1907 and they have a fortuitous accident happens. A train car load of paper arrives that’s too thick to be used for toilet paper. Dave Young: Oh, no. Stephen Semple: So what do you do with the product? Here’s what they observed. Around the same time there’s a Philadelphia school teacher who’s cutting up paper for students to use to dry their hands instead of a shared cloth to help spread germs during a flu outbreak. So there’s an influenza outbreak going on. So the Scotts realized they could use this thick paper for this purpose. They already knew how to do the perforations. They already knew how to put the stuff on a roll. Dave Young: And the paper towel. Just make it wider. Yeah. Stephen Semple: The paper towel was born. By 1910s they were doing over a million dollars in sales and the further boost adaption, they started giving away paper towel holders. So the first thing they did was paper towel holders and then the toilet roll came holder came later. Dave Young: So let me write this down. The correct chronology is the toilet paper roll, then the paper towel roll, then the paper towel roll holder and we haven’t even got to the toilet roll holder yet. Who would’ve guessed? Stephen Semple: Right. Dave Young: Okay. Stephen Semple: But now- Dave Young: Keep going. Stephen Semple: You know the answer to that. You could sleep well tonight, Dave, if you’ve got that answer. Dave Young: Absolutely. Like a baby. Stephen Semple: So within two decades, Scott Paper is basically doing like 83 million rolls of toilet paper and 200 million rolls of paper towels in America every day. Dave Young: Oh, wow. Stephen Semple: Just grew like crazy. And for 70 years they were the leader in the toilet paper industry. Eventually they were surpassed by Procter & Gamble’s Charmin, who overtook it as the leading brand. Don’t squeeze the Charmin. Dave Young: Well, that’s probably just good marketing on Procter & Gamble’s part. Stephen Semple: Yes. Yeah. Dave Young: Right? Stephen Semple: Yeah. And then again, in 1995, Kimberly Clark buys them for $9 billion. Dave Young: Were they private or were they still- Stephen Semple: They were private up until that point. Dave Young: No kidding. Stephen Semple: Yeah. Dave Young: Wow. And been around a long time. So there’s a lot of Scott multimultimillionaires out there. Stephen Semple: I’m sure there are. But the thing I found that was interesting, again, it’s this whole idea that we talked about this emergence of a new technology creating gaps. And every time there’s emergence of new technology, it creates these gaps and they saw the gap and filled it. And then the next thing is when they ran into a production problem, they didn’t look around the paper industry for the solution. They saw the solution with the US Post Office. Dave Young: Yes. The application of business topology. Stephen Semple: Yes. Dave Young: Somebody solved this problem already in a different form of paper, so let’s apply that. Stephen Semple: Yes. But again, this is what we see over and over again. And then when they had the mistake happen with the paper, what do we do with this paper? They saw what the school teacher was doing, which tells me they didn’t start looking in that moment. These were two guys that were constantly looking out at the world and seeing what was going on before. Dave Young: Being aware. I think especially being aware of somebody using your product or something like it in a different way. Stephen Semple: Yes. Dave Young: So a good reason to not just focus inward when you’re in business, right? Stephen Semple: Correct. Dave Young: Look what you can learn elsewhere. Look at the post office, look at the school teachers, look at anybody that’s doing something different with something related to what you’re doing. Stephen Semple: Right. And it’s that looking outside of the industry. I find so many people, it’s just like all they do is go to industry events. So the only time they turn their brain on is when they’re at an industry event rather than constantly being curious about everything in the world around them. Dave Young: Yeah. Very cool. Very cool. Stephen Semple: It was interesting because when you don’t think about something as dull as the toilet paper industry actually being born because of the advent of a new technology. Dave Young: No, and it was definitely a problem that needed solving. Stephen Semple: Absolutely. Dave Young: There’s only so much corn you can grow. Stephen Semple: And it wasn’t going to work in the new toilet. Dave Young: No, no, you can’t. The new flushable corn cob. That’s not a good idea. I’m full of not good ideas. Anything else about Scott? Stephen Semple: That’s it. That’s it. Dave Young: All right. Well, I got to go. Not there. Thank you for bringing the toilet paper saga to the Empire Builders Podcast. Stephen Semple: And answering your question about holders. There you go. Dave Young: Yeah. All right. Yeah. We’ve solved that one for the ages. The question of the ages has been solved. Thank you, Stephen. Stephen Semple: All right. Thanks, David.

Have you ever felt like there should be more to your faith than simply believing the right things?As we continue our Living as People of Grace series, Ps Sue Irwin explores a powerful truth from Ephesians: God has already placed extraordinary spiritual capacity within every person who is in Christ. The question is, are we learning to use it?This message unpacks what it means to truly know God, see beyond what's right in front of us, live with unshakable hope, understand how deeply treasured we are, and walk in the power God has made available to us. These aren't qualities reserved for a select few. They are invitations for every follower of Jesus.In a world filled with uncertainty, distraction, and anxiety, this message reminds us that we don't have to be defined by what we see around us. We can live from a deeper reality, one shaped by God's presence, promises, and purpose.Be encouraged to open your heart, grow in grace, and discover what God sees when He looks at you.

In this episode of the XS Noize Podcast, Mark Millar is joined by Irwin Sparkes and Alan Sharland from The Hoosiers to discuss their new album Compassion. The band first broke through in 2007 with their debut album The Trick to Life, featuring huge singles including "Worried About Ray" and "Goodbye Mr A." But this conversation is not just about looking back. It is about where The Hoosiers are now — creatively, personally and emotionally. Irwin and Alan talk about making Compassion, the ideas behind the record, rediscovering joy, holding on to self-belief, and what it means to meet the world with more humanity after years of change, pressure and experience. They also reflect on friendship, survival, the band's journey, the lessons learned along the way, and why this new chapter feels so important. The full video version of this conversation is available on the XS Noize YouTube channel.

Esperanza and Irwin

When you imagine God looking at you, what do you think He sees?In the opening message of our new series, Living as People of Grace, Ps Sue Irwin explores one of the most important questions we can ask: Who am I, really? Drawing from the book of Ephesians, she unpacks the difference between the identities we build through achievements, roles, and expectations, and the identity God has already given us in Christ.This message is a powerful reminder that your worth isn't something you earn. Before you achieved anything, before you made mistakes, before you even existed, you were loved, chosen, and invited into God's family. Grace isn't a reward for getting life right. It's the foundation from which we learn to live.If you've ever struggled with self-doubt, anxiety, comparison, or the feeling that you're not enough, this message offers a different perspective. Discover what changes when you begin to see yourself the way God sees you.Take a moment to listen, reflect, and be reminded of who you truly are.

Most of us have started a workout routine at least three times. We know what to do. We even want to do it. And yet, somehow, consistency remains the thing we can't crack — and we've been blaming ourselves for it ever since. In this episode, I break down a fascinating body of research called social facilitation, and what it reveals about why going it alone in fitness is so much harder than it needs to be — and exactly what to do about it.In this episode, you'll find out:Why does your body actually perform differently when other people are around — and what does that mean for your workouts?What is the Köhler Effect, and how does working out with someone slightly ahead of you unlock something extra you didn't know you had?What's the single most powerful habit you can build this week to hold yourself accountable to exercise — without overhauling your whole routine?Study References:Zajonc (1965) — Social Facilitation: https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/14300526/Irwin, Feltz, Kerr et al.

IR professionals are expected to do far more than communicate — they're expected to lead. In this episode of Winning IR, Mark Fasken speaks with Soham Bhonsle, Head of IR and FP&A at Compass, about what it takes to tell a compelling story when your company sits at the intersection of two very different investor worlds: real estate and technology. Soham shares how his decade-long career as a sell-side analyst shaped the way he engages investors, manages narratives through major M&A, and earns a genuine seat at the table in a founder-led, high-growth company.Winning IR is brought to you by Irwin.

If Part 1 was about the field of sexual medicine, Part 2 is about the marriage at the center of it. Dr. Jenni Skyler and Daniel Lebowitz return to their conversation with Dr. Irwin and Sue Goldstein, and this time, the questions get more personal. How do you stay married for fifty years? What does great sex actually look like across the decades? And what happens when a woman who has spent her career in sexual medicine starts experiencing low desire herself? Sue Goldstein opens up about her own journey through peri-menopause and the slow erosion of her libido- what she calls "duty sex", and the medications that brought not just her sex drive back, but a playfulness in her marriage she hadn't realized had gone missing. She walks listeners through her menopause toolbox of five treatments, explains why she's "76 and feels like she's in her 50s", and dismantles the lingering fears from the Women's Health Initiative that have kept generations of women in what she calls hormone prison. Dr. Irwin shares his own daily protocols for sexual health, why he believes most older men are leaving capacity on the table, and the surprising data from their own clinic- that more than half the Vyleesi prescriptions they write are off-label for men. They explore why dopamine is dopamine, regardless of gender. The reality of persistent genital arousal disorder. And a remarkable story of a teenage horseback rider whose chronic arousal turned out to be a herniated disc. This episode is full of practical wisdom, clinical innovation, and one of the most real conversations about long-term love you'll hear all year. The Goldsteins' secret to fifty years of marriage? Best friends, good sex, and the willingness to keep trying new things — including a chocolate sauce on the day before you change the sheets. Irwin Goldstein, MD, IF (he/him/his).

Catastrophic Diplomacy: US Foreign Disaster Assistance in the American Century (UNC Press, 2023) offers a sweeping history of US foreign disaster assistance, highlighting its centrality to twentieth-century US foreign relations. Spanning over seventy years, from the dawn of the twentieth century to the mid-1970s, it examines how the US government, US military, and their partners in the American voluntary sector responded to major catastrophes around the world. Focusing on US responses to sudden disasters caused by earthquakes, tropical storms, and floods—crises commonly known as "natural disasters"—historian Julia F. Irwin highlights the complex and messy politics of emergency humanitarian relief. Deftly weaving together diplomatic, environmental, military, and humanitarian histories, Irwin tracks the rise of US disaster aid as a tool of foreign policy, showing how and why the US foreign policy establishment first began contributing aid to survivors of international catastrophes. While the book focuses mainly on bilateral assistance efforts, it also assesses the broader international context in which the US government and its auxiliaries operated, situating their humanitarian responses against the aid efforts of other nations, empires, and international organizations. At its most fundamental level, Catastrophic Diplomacy demonstrates the importance of international disaster assistance—and humanitarian aid more broadly—to US foreign affairs. Julia F. Irwin, PhD, Yale University, 2009, is professor of history at Louisiana State University. Her research focuses on the place of humanitarian aid in twentieth-century U.S. foreign relations. Her first book, Making the World Safe: The American Red Cross and a Nation's Humanitarian Awakening (2013), is a history of U.S. international relief efforts during the World War I era; the dissertation on which it is based won the Betty M. Unterberger Dissertation Prize from the Society for Historians of American Foreign Relations. Learn more about your ad choices.

In this episode of Pushing Up Lilies, I'm covering the mysterious death of Spencer Irwin, a 30-year-old Fresno City College student whose body was discovered behind a business loading dock in Fresno, California, in August of 2024. What initially appeared to authorities to be a tragic but straightforward case quickly became something far more complicated. Spencer was found naked, with no obvious signs of trauma, and early assumptions pointed toward a drug overdose or transient-related death. But toxicology reports later came back clean. No overdose. No clear explanation. And despite the unanswered questions surrounding his death, the coroner ultimately ruled it “natural causes.” What makes this case especially unsettling is what didn't happen. No autopsy was performed. And Spencer's body was cremated. As a forensic death investigator, I discuss the difficult reality of cases that fall into gray areas, where evidence is limited, assumptions are made early, and families are left searching for answers long after a case is considered closed. Because sometimes the hardest part of an investigation… is not what we know. It's what we don't. This episode contains discussion of death, investigative uncertainty, and unresolved circumstances surrounding the case. Listener discretion is advised.

Dr. Irwin Goldstein didn't set out to become a pioneer of sexual medicine. He was a biomedical engineer turned urology resident who, as he tells it, asked one stupid question during a 1976 surgery: "Could you explain the physiology of erection to me?" The surgeon shrugged. Irwin spent the next decade figuring it out. Along the way, he co-discovered that nitric oxide, the elephant of our air, is what makes erections possible. He published the first paper on it in 1991. Seven years later, he became the first author on the New England Journal of Medicine paper that introduced Viagra to the world. But that's only half the story. The other half is Sue Goldstein, Irwin's college sweetheart turned partner in life, parenting, and eventually the practice itself. Sue spent decades raising their family while quietly absorbing the science her husband brought home. She is now an AASECT-certified educator, a published researcher, and one of the most outspoken patient advocates in the field. Together, they run San Diego Sexual Medicine, a clinic where every patient gets a three-hour visit, full education, and an entire team practicing what they call true bio-psycho social care. In this first half of our two-part conversation, Dr. Jenni Skyler and Daniel Lebowitz sit with the Goldsteins and explore how a field gets built, and how it still leaves so many patients behind. They cover prostate cancer and the silent erectile crisis that follows it. The buccal grafting innovation that's helping women with severe vestibular pain finally get answers. Why women, on average, see ten or twelve doctors before they get a real diagnosis. And Sue's pet peeve, medical gaslighting and what to do when a doctor says "there's nothing that can be done." This is a conversation for anyone who has ever felt unheard by a clinician, dismissed by their own body, or convinced they were the problem. The Goldsteins want you to know — you're not.

Matt Risinger welcomes Kristof Irwin of Positive Energy for a deep discussion on the relationship between HVAC design, moisture management, and high-performance construction. Irwin explains how modern homes require a systems-based approach, where airtight enclosures, ventilation, and properly sized mechanical equipment all work together to improve comfort and indoor air quality. The conversation also covers humidity control, energy modeling, and the growing need for testing and verification as building standards evolve. Matt and Kristof discuss how builders, architects, and HVAC professionals coordinate early in the design phase to avoid performance issues later in construction.  Huge thanks to our episode sponsor,  JELD-WEN.

Spencer Irwin was just 30 years old when he vanished one Sunday morning in July 2024. Days later, his body was found in a way that raised questions – naked, alone and quickly dismissed by authorities. But their assumptions about Spencer were wrong. As his mother began asking questions, the answers she received only raised more red flags: no autopsy, missing belongings and a timeline full of gaps no one seemed interested in filling. When toxicology results came back, they didn't just complicate the story, they began to unravel it. Refusing to accept a conclusion that didn't add up, Spencer's mother launched her own investigation. What she uncovered was deeply unsettling. As new witnesses came forward and experts weighed in, one thing became clear — the case may have been written off too soon. The truth is buried somewhere, waiting to be uncovered. If you have any information regarding the mysterious death of Spencer Irwin, you can contact the Fresno Police Department directly at 559-621-7000 or anonymously through Valley Crime Stoppers by texting ‘VALLEY' to 738477.   Source materials for this episode cannot be listed here due to character limitations.

Esperanza and Irwin explore the intertwined histories of Speonk and Remsenburg—two neighboring hamlets whose stories reveal a deeper, often overlooked side of the East End. From Speonk's roots as a railroad hub and working-class community to Remsenburg's evolution into a quiet waterfront enclave, we trace how geography, class, and development shaped their distinct identities.Along the way, we uncover how these communities grew in tandem, influencing one another through shared infrastructure, shifting demographics, and a common connection to the land and waterways. It's a nuanced look at how two places, often considered separately, are in many ways inseparable—linked by history, culture, and change.

On this episode of The Nikki & Brie Show, we're closing out our Women's History Month series with a conversation that reminds us why this month matters so deeply. Nikki & Brie sit down with Frédérique Irwin, President and CEO of the National Women's History Museum, for a powerful conversation about the stories of women, the ones history made room for, and the many it didn't. This episode is bigger than one journey. It is about legacy, visibility, truth, and the work of making sure women's history is no longer treated like a footnote, but recognized for what it is: foundational. Frédérique shares why this mission matters, what it means to preserve and elevate women's stories, and how changing the narrative can change the future for generations of girls and women to come. It is thoughtful, eye-opening, and deeply moving. A perfect way to close this series, while also reminding us that this conversation is far from over. Because when women's stories are told, we all win. Call Nikki & Brie at 833-GARCIA2 and leave a voicemail!
