Following the global acclaim of 2003's Through the Ashes of Empires, Robb Flynn and Machine Head set out to create a follow-up that would cement their place at the forefront of modern metal.The album took many shapes before the band ultimately shed all external expectations and wrote purely for themselves.This resulted in politically-charged epics like “Clenching the Fist of Dissent” and “A Farewell to Arms,” along with deeply personal explorations of mental health and grief in “Beautiful Mourning” and “Aesthetics of Hate.”Machine Head also showcase some of the most intricate arrangements and technical performances of their career, especially on standout tracks like “Wolves” and the now-iconic “Halo.”Please join us this week as we celebrate Machine Head's 2007 masterpiece, The BlackeningRecommendations:Innumerable Forms - Pain EffulgenceDefacement - DoomedMizmor - Mnemonic: Ambient MosaicDeadguy - Near-Death Travel ServicesDeliquesce - Saviour / EnslaverSanguisugabogg - Hideous AftermathFollow Riff WorshipInstagram: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://www.instagram.com/riffworshippod/⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Twitter: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://x.com/RiffWorshipPod⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠YouTube: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://www.youtube.com/@RiffWorshipPod⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Check out our Official Playlists:⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Riffs on Repeat (Spotify)⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Hits from the Crypt (Apple)

A lot has changed in gaming since TSG was last lying down these velvety smooth podcast experiences. So today, we're jumping feet first into the mud with Xbox's brutal fall from grace after thousands more were laid off and multiple big time projects were shuttered. We also look ahead to what will hopefully be Playstation's next big hit with Ghost of Yotei. And of course, we touch on what we've been playing including games like Oblivion Remastered, Avowed, AC: Shadows, Halo 5, and Spider-Man 2. 

Is removing artificial dyes or switching sugars making food healthier—or just better marketed? This episode breaks down the “health halo” effect and why ingredient swaps often miss the bigger picture. It also explores the deeper issue of food insecurity and why access to nutritious food matters more than cosmetic food changes. From misunderstood ingredients to misguided food trends, the focus shifts to what truly impacts public health.

No es miércoles si no sale tu programa de chimentos favorito: Café Fandango, tu fuente de noticias de infidelidades, noticias picantes y separamientos. Esta semana hacemos algo un poco distinto y también hablamos de videojuegos, así que Edu te cuenta de que estuvo jugando al Legend of Mana, que empezó y terminó el Boxes: Lost Fragments y arrancó el Beyond Good and Evil Remastered. Gus por su lado, sigue comentando del Halo 2. Después pasamos a las noticias con un anuncio del Ex Fifa 2026, Steam se baja los pantalones con Visa y Mastercard en una manera absolutamente no sexual, el CEO de Ubisoft se queja de que su juego de Star Wars era de Star Wars y el Phasmophobia anuncia su versión 1.0 con el anuncio de Horror 2.0. Cerramos con la Pregunta Fandango donde recordamos expansiones o parches que se sintieron como juegos nuevos.

It's one of the most beloved stops on the British eventing calendar — and this year's Burgham International, supported by Project Pony, boasts a huge entry list with top contenders, European hopefuls, and rising stars. Nicole is joined by Diarm, Catherine, and Spike for a classic preview show as they dive into the form, stats, and stories behind the scenes. Episode Highlights: What makes Burgham special: Warm Northern hospitality, a family-run feel, and consistently massive entry numbers make Burgham a rider and fan favourite. Rosalind vs Halo: Can Oliver Townend's Cooley Rosalent defend her title — or will Piggy March and Halo steal the spotlight? Emily King on the rise: Valmy Biats has podiumed here two years running. Could this be Emily's breakout year for a senior team call-up? Section D depth: JL Dublin headlines, but strong entries like Sarah Bullimore's Corimiro and Yaz Ingham's Gypsie Du Loir make this a hotly contested class. The dark horse picks: Izzy Taylor's Barrington Alice, Tom Jackson's HH Moonwalk, and Cassie Sanger's Redfield Fire all get nods as ones to watch. European selection implications: With Blenheim looming, who's peaking at the right time — and who might choose a Burghley campaign instead?

In this episode, host Pete Moore sits down with Kristen Anderson, a trailblazer in the HALO sector and a well-known, high-profile Pilates instructor out of Los Angeles. Kristen shares her journey from competitive figure skating to entrepreneurship, revealing how her passion for movement has shaped her approach to helping others live healthier, more balanced lives. Kristen drives home points about "the power of small, consistent movement," the enduring value of Pilates, and how she's leveraging technology to make fitness more accessible. This is a fun one! And it's packed with inspiration, wisdom, and practical advice for anyone looking to “feed their humanity” through movement—plus a nod to shared passions for Taylor Swift and how Pilates is benefiting everyone from pop stars to pro athletes! Anderson is known for successfully launching several products, though being ahead of the curve hasn't always been easy—sometimes leading to frustration or skepticism from others. Still, her ability to anticipate change and her commitment to personal authenticity keep her moving forward. When discussing a healther future, she says, "This is fighting for what you believe in! You guys (Integrity Square) are about getting rid of childhood diabetes and obesity, because those things are still around, and you can't sleep at night when it's going on out there! I have that same thing. It's like . . . it's just a tiny bit of movement. It makes me feel better, you feel better, and then I still have time to do all my other things, because when I get out of balance, it's not good." Key themes discussed Scaling wellness and Pilates impact beyond local communities. The benefits and science behind Pilates practice. Movement as a tool for mental and physical well-being. Balancing personal career ambitions with community contribution. The evolving role of technology in fitness and Pilates. Importance of daily movement—no need for lengthy workouts. Pilates' integration into sports, rehabilitation, and "mainstream" fitness. A few key takeaways:  1. Movement Is Essential—Not Just for Fitness, But for Life: Kristen emphasizes that movement isn't just about working out or looking a certain way—it's about staying healthy, feeling good, and functioning well in everyday life. She says, "Some kind of movement, regardless of who you are, will get you some endorphins . . . and that actually influences the rest of your life and all these other areas that we're always trying to knock down.” 2. The Power of Scaling Positive Impact: Kristen shares how her drive isn't about money— it's about helping more people through movement. She believes in a “butterfly effect”: helping one person move better can ripple outward to help countless others, feeding her “purpose” of giving someone the gift of a better day. 3. Pilates Is Here to Stay—and Evolving: As a Pilates innovator, Kristen points out that Pilates is no passing fad. It has become a foundational movement system for everyone from athletes (like the Kansas City Chiefs and Taylor Swift!) to everyday people. She predicts that Pilates principles will become further ingrained in mainstream fitness and even children's physical education. 4. Balance and Community Matter for Longevity and Joy: Kristen talks about how she structures her own schedule to balance client work, creative projects, personal pursuits, and mentorship—because “when I get out of balance, it's not good.” She stresses the importance of community, connection, and feeding “your humanity.” 5. Pilates (and Movement) Is Becoming More Accessible and Customizable Looking to the future, Kristen sees Pilates (and movement-based wellness in general) getting even more personalized. Whether it's bite-size routines for specific goals (like sport recovery or rehab) or leveraging tech/AI to deliver targeted programs, she envisions a world where the benefits of Pilates are widely available and “normalized.” Resources:  Kristin Anderson: https://www.linkedin.com/in/kristin-anderson-thankyou/   HALO Talks 2 Minute Financial Drills (Videos): https://bit.ly/2minutedrills  Prospect Wizard: https://www.theprospectwizard.com  Promotion Vault: http://www.promotionvault.com HigherDose: http://www.higherdose.com

Xbox saw Matty was slipping, so in a bold strategy to reel the Dukes back in, they have opted to greenlight Fallout 5. Despite what many will try and say to downplay this, there is a strong chance that Fallout 5 goes beyond the borders of Bethesda for the first time since 2010. Considering it's a mainline entry, this is a massive shakeup. It gets even more dicey when Obsidian Entertainment gets taken off the board. So, who makes a new Fallout game? The 76 team? InXile? Larian? Dare we say, a new studio? Oh, boy. Each choice outside of the obvious like Larian or InXile has their caveats. So, let's get into the thick of the future of the Bethesda's valuable post-apocalyptic IP.

Entrevista de Lourdes Lancho al concejal por Más Madrid, Félix López Rey

In this episode of the MAFFEO DRINKS Podcast, Host Chris Maffeo talks to Ben Branson, founder of Seedlip and now Sylva and Seasn, shares his journey of creating the modern non-alcoholic spirits category. From his farming background to launching the world's first distilled non-alcoholic spirits, Ben discusses the critical importance of building categories before brands, the evolution from direct-to-consumer to retail distribution, and his philosophy of three essential elements. He emphasizes the drinks industry's B2B2B2C nature, the value of premium credibility through top-tier accounts, and his current ventures, including Sylva (an aged non-alcoholic spirit using British trees) and Seasn (cocktail bitters). Ben's approach centers on properly developing products, understanding cultural contexts beyond liquid, and maintaining relationships with the influential "1000 people that matter" while scaling.0:00 Introduction to the Maffeo Drinks Podcast00:12 Meet Ben Branson: Founder of Seedlip00:37 Building a Category from Scratch03:10 The Importance of Choice in Non-Alcoholic Beverages06:24 Challenges and Dynamics in the Non-Alcoholic Market09:12 Understanding the Drinks Ecosystem12:20 The Role of Occasions in Brand Building13:51 Direct-to-Consumer vs. Traditional On and Off Trade27:50 The Power of First Impressions and Credibility32:28 The Importance of Influential Customers33:27 Halo vs. Habit: Building Brand Relationships34:22 Balancing Supermarket and Independent Distribution38:43 The Role of Planning in Brand Launches39:40 Learning the Drinks Industry42:05 The Value of Experience and Patience52:30 Navigating Competition and Protecting Your Brand55:41 Final Thoughts and Key Takeaways

In today's Fast Break we're excited to bring you (a snippet) of our panel discussion at the recent Athletech Innovators Summit held in NYC, July 2025. Integrity Square Founder and HALO Talks host Pete Moore moderated a panel with Mark Federico (CEO of Fitness Holdings/Crunch Fitness) and Terry Blachek (Orange Theory Fitness) for a deep dive into the real-world challenges—and strategies—of scaling fitness franchises. Mark Federico's Growth Playbook Mark walked us through his journey, from running a nine-club independent brand to leading a 50+ club Crunch Fitness operation across 10 states. He shed light on the big question: Build new locations (greenfields) or buy existing ones (acquisitions)? He shared the calculus behind each approach, breaking down real cost factors and explaining why “development space” is critical for franchisees. Franchise Valuation—Not All Clubs Are Created Equal Many single-gym owners want “big company” multiples, but Mark explained why scale, growth runway, and strategic value make a huge difference in valuation. Pro tip: Buying a single club isn't the same as absorbing a whole region. If you want premium pricing, bring growth potential to the table. Financing Franchise Expansion Terry opened up about the risks and strategies he used to finance Orange Theory locations, including SBA loans, finding investor partners, and personally guaranteeing leases. They discussed what it really takes to stand behind a business—sometimes with tens of millions in personal guarantees—long before private equity gets involved. The Realities (and Rewards) of Entrepreneurship Both guests emphasized the massive personal and financial risks entrepreneurs take to build these fitness empires. Pete made an important point: These risks deserve respect and reward, not scorn. Bonus Insight: The "Microwave vs. Crockpot" Growth Model Terry shared Orange Theory's approach to expansion, balancing rapid growth with careful, sustainable development. If you're a franchisor or area developer, this is a must-hear perspective. Want to learn more? (You should.

MDJ Script/ Top Stories for July 16th Publish Date:  July 16th    Commercial: From the BG Ad Group Studio, Welcome to the Marietta Daily Journal Podcast.    Today is Wednesday, July 16th and Happy Birthday to Will Ferrell I’m Keith Ippolito and here are the stories Cobb is talking about, presented by Times Journal Marietta School Board to consider vape detection, substitute teacher funding Acworth Book & Storytelling Festival is Aug. 23 Letter shows Cobb's threat to halt police services in Mableton All of this and more is coming up on the Marietta Daily Journal Podcast, and if you are looking for community news, we encourage you to listen and subscribe!  BREAK: INGLES 3 STORY 1: Marietta School Board to consider vape detection, substitute teacher funding The Marietta Board of Education is set to discuss installing Halo vape detection systems in Marietta High, Middle, and Woods-Wilkins Campus. These devices, costing up to $60,000 funded by grants, discreetly monitor air quality, alerting staff to harmful chemicals like nicotine. Superintendent Grant Rivera and his team aim to tackle vaping issues proactively. Additionally, the board will consider a $2.4M contract with Kelly Services for substitute staffing and appointing R.K. Redding Construction for Marietta High renovations, scheduled for summers 2026-2027, funded by SPLOST. STORY 2: Acworth Book & Storytelling Festival is Aug. 23 The Acworth Book & Storytelling Festival is set for Aug. 23, 10 a.m. to 3 p.m., at The Roberts School in Acworth. Hosted by Acworth Cultural Arts, this free event features local and regional authors, professional storytellers, vendors, and a panel discussion themed “Ink & Echo: Writing the stories. Speaking the truth.” Keynote speaker Bren McClain, author of *One Good Mama Bone*, will join T.M. Brown in conversation. STORY 3: Letter shows Cobb's threat to halt police services in Mableton Mableton officials agreed to pay Cobb County $9.5 million for police and transportation services after the county threatened to halt them by June 1. Mayor Michael Owens said the city was forced into the deal to ensure public safety, despite concerns of "double taxation" for residents already paying county taxes. The agreement funds services until May 2026, with Mableton exploring a special service district to cover costs. While Cobb County claimed it wouldn’t abandon residents, a May 30 letter revealed threats to cease services if no deal was reached. The city council initially rejected the plan but later approved it after mediation. We have opportunities for sponsors to get great engagement on these shows.

Break: INGLES 3 STORY 4: Austell approves 158% property tax increase The Austell City Council approved a 158% property tax increase, raising the millage rate from 3.25 to 8.25 mills, despite strong opposition from residents. The hike, expected to double property tax revenue to $3.85 million, aims to stabilize finances and address a $1.6 million budget shortfall. Mayor Ollie Clemons defended the decision as necessary for the city’s future, while critics, including Council member Meredith Adams, opposed the sharp increase, citing its impact on residents, especially those on fixed incomes. Many residents blamed city leadership for financial mismanagement, while Clemons attributed the issues to inflation and past inaction. STORY 5: Cobb Water Authority manager talks fluoride, forever chemicals, costs Cole Blackwell, general manager of the Cobb County-Marietta Water Authority, emphasized proactive planning for water quality, affordability, and infrastructure reliability during a Kiwanis Club talk. The authority, sourcing water from Lake Allatoona and the Chattahoochee River, is addressing emerging contaminants like PFAS, though current levels remain safe. Inflation and rising construction costs have impacted operations, but costs are stabilizing, and the authority has a water supply sufficient through 2055. Blackwell reassured residents of continued fluoride use, compliance with regulations, and efforts to maintain reasonable water rates while ensuring future reliability. Break: STORY 6: Marietta man charged with stealing from Ford Elementary School Jamie Jr. Cline, 44, of Marietta, faces two theft charges for allegedly stealing a trailer and hay blower from Ford Elementary School in Acworth during separate incidents on June 29 and 30. According to police, Cline accessed the school by opening chained gates. Arrested on July 8, he was booked into the Cobb County Adult Detention Center and released the next morning on a $35,000 bond. STORY 7: Shaw Park Community Block Party is July 19 The Shaw Park Community Block Party will take place on July 19, from 11 a.m. to 1 p.m., at Gritters Library in Marietta. Hosted by Gritters Library, CobbWorks, and Cobb PARKS, this free, family-friendly event features a live DJ, inflatable games, face painting, bilingual storytime, and a Bollywood Dance Challenge. Food will be available for purchase from The Patty Wagon and King of Pops.

In this episode, host Pete Moore sits down with Mary Laudati, a seasoned sales and marketing leader with deep roots in the HALO (Health, Active Lifestyle, Outdoor) space. From her days leading the sales group at Sports Club LA to her current role as a consultant working with top clubs across the U.S. and internationally, Mary shares her insights on building effective sales strategies, leveraging cutting-edge software like Salesforce, and creating a powerful culture of member engagement and retention. She provides boots-on-the-ground, immediately actionable tips on using data, recording sales calls, and mystery shopping to pinpoint where clubs are leaving revenue on the table—plus, the importance of strong onboarding and personal connections to keep members coming back. Mary also discusses the latest trends in CRM technology, club operations, and the shift toward shared memberships and referral models. Whether you're a club owner, sales team leader, or just passionate about the business of the HALO space, Mary's advice on finding—and keeping—members is pure gold. On early member retention, she states, "Those three months are crucial . . . for those clubs that don't have salespeople, not only do you want to embrace the incoming (they've got to follow up and make a lot of phone calls), but they also have to check on the new members and look at their attendance to make sure that they're coming in." Key themes discussed Importance of sales strategies and processes in health clubs. Customizable CRM/software solutions for sales and retention. The critical role of training and investing in your employees. KPIs, net growth, revenue, and retention. Mystery shopping and call recording for sales team improvement. Enhancing member engagement, onboarding, and relationship-building. Shared membership/referral programs to boost membership and loyalty. A few key takeaways:  1. Sales Process Needs Structure and Ongoing Evaluation: Mary emphasized that many clubs claim to have a strong sales team, but more often than not lack strategies, scripts, or KPIs. She underlined the importance of having sequential, process-driven systems and regular evaluation—often through recording, analyzing calls, and “mystery shopping” the current experience. 2. CRMs and Custom Software Are Game-Changers: A major part of the episode centers around the critical need for effective, customizable CRMs. Mary championed Salesforce for its adaptability, noting her experience implementing it at Millennium Partners. She highlighted recent successes helping clubs (like Powerhouse Gyms in Novi, MI) leverage technology to understand their numbers, coach their teams, and boost revenue. 3. Training and Investment in People Drives Revenue: Laudati strongly advocates investing in employee training alongside technology. She's seen clients who paired software adoption with robust training, and realized up to 25% growth year-over-year. She's a believer in hands-on onboarding, coaching, and ensuring team members are held accountable—not just to sales, but to ongoing member engagement. 4. Retention is as Critical as Acquisition: Both Mary and Pete stressed the importance of looking beyond just new member acquisition to also address attrition. Laudati recommends clubs track net growth (sales minus cancels), invest in the early months of a member's journey, proactively reach out to disengaged members, and create meaningful connections (a la “Cheers,” where everyone knows your name!) 5. Shared Memberships and Ongoing Engagement are Winning Strategies: Highlighting clients like Bay Clubs, Laudati also talked about the explosion of shared or referral-based memberships and how they can create instant community and value. She noted the value of actively integrating new members into programs or group activities (think personal training, group ex, or even pickleball) during the crucial first three months to help maximize retention.

A conversation involving such dramatic shifts in the brand requires as much nuance as we can gather! Summoned to the realm of the Dukes are none other than Last Stand Media's own Gene Park and Rick Hoeg to help us sift through the fallout of last week's Xbox layoffs. Any single one of these stories could be our lead for the week, but let's get it started with Microsoft's $80 billion investment in their AI infrastructure. Sadly, it has been reported that this is the root cause of the layoffs. Naturally, an investment to the tune of almost $12 billion more than Activision doesn't sneak up on you. The question we're left asking in wake of these claims is how leadership was able to blindside staff within Xbox despite likely knowing about these impending changes for months. Why meet with teams like Zenimax Online Studios and Romero Games, prepare hardware investments, create long term production plans only to axe them by the following weekend? A fired up Rick Hoeg will certainly let us know how he feels on the matter (IYKYK). Speaking of Zenimax Online Studios, we now have details on the canceled Project Blackbird to parse through thanks to multiple insider reports. Blackbird was an online, open world RPG focusing on shooting and traversal mechanics with a planned release window of 2028. With the pedigree of this studio being clear and the risk being low compared to most live service initiatives out there, why shut down something with such great potential? Well, perhaps that's because in a "hits only" business, you need to go with the guarantee. There's no greater guarantee for money than the Fallout IP and, finally, it appears Xbox has come to their senses. Multiple Fallout games are in production! Reason for celebration, no? We'll get to that. Plus, our thoughts on Helldivers 2 coming to Xbox, a Halo project potentially in trouble, and returning once more to the "Great Game Pass Profitability Debate."
