White Briefs, Retro Ads & Australian Underwear Culture with Thomas This week on the Brief Talk Podcast, UNB Tim sits down with Thomas from Melbourne, Australia for a fun and unexpectedly nostalgic conversation about white briefs, retro underwear ads, Australian underwear culture, and discovering your style through movies, media, and vintage aesthetics. What starts as a chat about classic white briefs quickly turns into a deep dive into growing up influenced by American media, collecting vintage underwear advertisements, and why traditional white briefs still hold a special place for gear lovers today.   Thomas shares how movies like 13 Going on 30, The Little Rascals, and even The Jungle Book helped shape his fascination with white briefs growing up in Australia, where they've never been quite as mainstream as they were in the United States. The two compare the differences between American and Australian underwear culture, from department store shopping to the struggle of finding classic full-cut briefs in today's boxer brief dominated world.   The conversation also covers Thomas's journey through brands like Calvin Klein, Jockey, Stafford, Fruit of the Loom, Hanes, and Australian labels including Holeproof, Bonds, and Max. There's plenty of talk about retro styling, why Stafford briefs have become legendary among white brief fans, and how vintage-inspired underwear still resonates today.   One of the highlights of the episode is hearing about Thomas's collection of framed vintage underwear advertisements decorating his home — including classic Fruit of the Loom ads, PlayStation campaigns featuring guys in white briefs, and 1950s family-themed underwear artwork. Tim and Thomas bond over their shared love of retro underwear advertising and preserving pieces of underwear history that many people overlook as art.   The two also dive into Speedos, short shorts, retro masculinity, gay nostalgia, underwear representation in books and media, and why gear lovers deserve better representation in romance stories. Tim even teases his upcoming gay romance novel centered around underwear culture, vintage-inspired briefs, and gear-loving characters who actually understand that sometimes the underwear should stay on.   If you love white briefs, retro underwear ads, classic menswear aesthetics, Speedos, or hearing two gear enthusiasts nerd out over vintage underwear culture, this is an episode you won't want to miss. Quotes for Social Media Thomas: “American media just kept finding its way to me over the years.”   Thomas: “Stafford is still number one for me.”   UNB Tim: “You're a true underwear lover if you know the underwear stays on.”   Thomas: “Some of them are legit pieces of art.”   UNB Tim: “We need an archive of all this stuff so we can have it later.”   Support UNB If you enjoy the Brief Talk Podcast and everything we do at Underwear News Briefs, please consider supporting us on Patreon.

Matt Spiegel and Gabe Ramirez reflected on an exciting Kentucky Derby on Saturday.

The first bloke to give me a wrap for the talents of Justin Sheehan was John O'Shea. It was 2000 and John's solo training career had just begun at Warwick Farm. Sheehan was then 28 and although struggling with weight issues, was quickly establishing himself with some very discerning trainers. O'Shea described him as an “innately talented rider.” Just eight years later Justin's career was all over as the ravages of the sweat box began to affect his health. In his relatively short time as a professional jockey he stamped himself as one of the best in the land. The 54 year old Queensland born horseman joins us on the podcast this week to look back on the highs and lows of an amazing twenty one year career as a professional jockey. Justin begins by talking about some recent health issues. He looks back on fifteen years as an in demand trackwork rider at Warwick Farm. Justin has clear recollections of his final day at the races- two unplaced rides at Rosehill in 2008. His final win at Kembla Grange remains near and dear to his heart. He takes us back to childhood and memories of the equine skills of his late father. The former jockey recalls the family's move from Charleville to Dalby and an early introduction to thoroughbreds, albeit at an illegal age. He looks back on his first race ride, his first win and the experience gained riding on some dry and dusty tracks in the Northern Territory. Sheehan remembers his excitement when awarded a life changing NT Government Apprentice Grant which took him to Adelaide for a three month stint with trainer Danny Callaghan. He looks back on a freak run of success and the opportunity to partner a marvellous old sprinter in nine wins. Justin remembers his transfer to Kembla Grange trainer Bernie Howlett. He recalls being very impressed with the talents of John O'Shea when the former Queenslander first began his training career at Warwick Farm. Justin talks of his two race rides on budding champion Saintly. He talks of his engagement to Ann Maree and the beginning of an association with top filly Kenbelle, then trained by his future father-in-law Kevin Robinson. Justin takes us through his 1996 Oaks win on Kenbelle. Justin remembers two race rides on “champion in waiting” Tie The Knot. To this day he wonders what might have been, had things worked out a little differently. The former ace jockey remembers with sadness the horrific Ipswich race fall in which eight horses crashed in the backstraight. On a brighter note he looks back on his sudden engagement for genuine sprinter Adam and a Gr 1 win first up. This was the horse at the centre of his first overseas trip. We devote ample time to Justin's review of his exciting involvement with Universal Prince- four Gr 1 wins and one freakish fall in Singapore.  He pays tribute to three other talented horses he got to ride for different trainers. Justin's unrelenting weight struggles were well known to racing people. He looks back on the horrors of constant wasting.  Justin and Ann Maree are the proud parents of 23 year old Darby Sheehan. Dad says Darby hasn't inherited the racing genes. This is an interesting chat with a former jockey who left an indelible mark in a brief but brilliant career.

NBC sports reporter, author, fitness guru Donna Barton Brothers, who won more than 1,000 races as a jockey, will ride away from her NBC career after this year's Preakness Stakes.Donna famously interviews the winning jockey on horseback just seconds after a major stakes victory like the Kentucky Derby, Preakness Stakes, Breeders Cup Classic, etc.Donna and Terry Meiners discussed her incredible career in a WHAS Radio exclusive.

Luke Harvey was an elite jump jockey winning races at the famous Cheltenham Festival and Aintree among other successes. Since retiring he's become a beloved racing broadcaster for ITV, Sky Sports and others. In this conversation Luke tells me why he thinks the 2026 edition was the best 'Cheltenham' in decades.In a time when we're also considering the healthiness of much of elite sport - jump jockeys have a lot of financial uncertainty to contend with and physical jeopardy - Luke explains why he's forever grateful for the like horse racing has given him.Also an interesting riff here on the enigmatic nature of both humans and horses - how people and race horses can be brilliant in training but not able to perform in public.

MQLs and SQLs. Most CEOs don't care about this data, and yet entire marketing departments still optimize for these metrics. Tanya Thorson spent 20+ years moving from retail stores to cybersecurity SaaS, and she's done pretending B2B and B2C are different categories. They're not. It's all B2A (business to anyone) because at the end of every transaction is still a human.Join hosts Nick Paladino and Chuck Moxley as we sit down with Tanya Thorson, fractional CMO and author of "Get Off Your Mass." Tanya breaks down why the funnel we've been optimizing for decades is fiction. Buyers aren't thinking "I'm in the discovery stage, I hope I get a white paper," they're bouncing around like ping pong balls touching your brand 60-65 times before raising their hands. We explore internal friction, which Tanya argues is the real problem: sales and marketing fighting over credit, stores versus digital with competing goals, incentive structures that make people territorial instead of customer-focused. She reveals how moving Network Perception from product-led to buyer-centric doubled their ARR and led to acquisition by tightening pipeline velocity 50%. We discuss why relevance trumps personalization, knowing someone struggles with a specific problem beats just inserting their name in an email. Chuck's ungating case study comes up again, and Tanya flips the script on friction itself.  Her definition: frictionless is fewer second guesses.Key Actionable Takeaways:Align teams around revenue, not meaningless metrics - Replace MQLs/SQLs with meaningful metrics like pipeline velocity, win rate, CAC-to-LTV ratio; get sales and marketing sitting at the same table accountable for the same P&L outcomesRemove dead ends and keep buyers exploring - Ungate content, provide continuous pathways to learn more, and stop forcing premature conversion points when buyers need 60+ touchpoints before they're ready to engage salesWeight relevance over shallow personalization - Address actual pain points and quantifiable outcomes rather than just inserting names in templates; great personalization reduces hesitation by eliminating ambiguity about whether your solution is for themWant more tips and strategies about creating frictionless digital experiences? Subscribe to our newsletter! https://www.thefrictionlessexperience.com/frictionless/Download the Five Step Site Speed Target Playbook: http://bluetriangle.com/playbookTanya Thorson's LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/tanyathorson/ Tanya's Book, “Get Off Your (M)ass!”: https://a.co/d/0bBWNpZWNick Paladino's LinkedIn: https://linkedin.com/in/npaladino Chuck Moxley's LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/chuckmoxley/Chapters:(00:00) Introduction(03:12) Tanya's background(07:37) B2A concept unpacked(10:03) Curiosity Creed(11:58) Football field analogy(13:00) Meaningful vs meaningless metrics(14:16) CEO's don't care about MQLs(16:09) Nick admits ignorance(17:08) Merging sales and marketing(18:06) Revenue alignment(20:16) Product-led dead ends(22:20) Dead end friction(24:00) Internal conflict stories(25:01) Incentive misalignment(27:25) Attribution problems(28:30) 60-65 touchpoints research(29:36) Ungating case study(31:19) POISE framework(33:13) Relevance over personalization(34:04) AI and emotional intelligence(35:29) AI doing heavy lifting(37:19) Biggest misconception(38:12) Conclusion

Ashok Krishnamurthi, Managing Partner at Great Point Ventures, says the biggest mistake in venture capital is confusing prediction with judgment.Early stage investing is not about perfect stories, it is about first principles and picking the founder who can execute when the story breaks.This episode is for startup founders and investors who want a cleaner filter for what matters.“You have to learn to check your ego at the door because it's a partnership.”Ashok shares his path from engineering into building companies, then into venture capital, and explains how he forms an investment thesis when markets are noisy. We talk about founder evaluation, why picking the jockey matters more than the idea, and how first principles thinking shows up in real domains like healthcare data and cancer. We also get practical about artificial intelligence, why AI is not only a compute race, and how AI inference, energy efficiency, and cost shape what wins.00:00 Why legacy matters more than VC metrics02:28 Engineer to founder to venture capital11:16 How to pick the jockey14:21 First principles, cancer data, and AI constraints23:24 AI is here to stay, keep your mind open30:15 How to reach AshokIf this episode helped, subscribe and share it with a builder or investor who will use it.

The Cinematography Podcast Episode 346: Adolpho Veloso, ABC, AIP The film Train Dreams tells a story that feels less like a narrative and more like a memory. It began as an independent project that premiered at Sundance to critical acclaim before getting acquired by Netflix. Director Clint Bentley and cinematographer Adolpho Veloso, ABC, AIP, chose to shoot in the rugged landscapes of the Pacific Northwest. Veloso's radical commitment to naturalism in the film meant relying almost entirely on firelight, candlelight and natural light. The gorgeous result has earned him an Academy Award nomination for Best Cinematography. After their successful collaboration on the low-budget indie movie Jockey, Veloso and director Clint Bentley knew a tiny crew and small group of actors could lead to good, intimate storytelling. They developed a specific visual shorthand designed to make Train Dreams feel like a discovered artifact. They chose a 3:2 aspect ratio, a deliberate nod to still photography, intended to evoke the sensation of looking through a dusty box of old family photos. “We wanted the movie to feel like memories, like finding a box of pictures,” explains Veloso. “The whole visual motif came from still images and still photography in a way.” Using a single, handheld ARRI ALEXA 35 camera operated by Veloso allowed the actors freedom to improvise and move naturally, often capturing moments that a more rigid, multi-camera setup would have missed. To maintain a clear narrative thread through Robert's (Joel Edgerton) life, Veloso established visual rules using specific lighting shifts to distinguish between the warmth of Robert's good memories and the starker, haunting quality of his loss. Grounding the film in nature was extremely important. The team scoured Washington state, looking for woods that appeared untouched by time, yet remained accessible enough for a film crew. They shot around the Spokane area, where the drier weather and specific light quality offered the perfect backdrop for the film's mid-century setting. Working in national forests meant strict regulations with a small footprint, and timber cutting and axe work was carefully planned. Using almost entirely firelight, candlelight and natural light is very nontraditional filmmaking, and required a great deal of planning from all departments. For the two sets, the cabin and fire tower, Veloso spent weeks tracking solar orientation. The crew carefully built the cabin to exact specifications to allow plenty of light into the space. “You have the privilege to build it the way you want,” Veloso explains. “It's a lot of studies of what the sun is doing from week one to week seven. You have to decide where to place the windows so the light continuity holds as the seasons shift.” The most interesting technical choice was the total ban on LED lighting for period scenes. Veloso wanted the authentic flicker and color temperature of the era, but candles alone often create harsh, distracting shadows. To solve this, the team engineered a “1920s Sky Panel.” This custom rig used large reflective surfaces combined with candles and diffusion to create a soft, glowing light source that felt period-accurate yet flattering on the actors' faces. This required a constant dance between the camera and the art department. Candles, oil lamps, firelight, and campfires had to be good quality light to expose the image properly. For campfire scenes, the gaffer measured light levels in real-time, signaling the fire safety monitor to add wood precisely when the "exposure" needed a boost. A devastating forest fire at the film's climax required a shift from the naturalistic to the surreal. To capture the flames and feeling of a real forest fire, the production moved to an LED volume stage. Robert is dreaming about what happened in the fire, so the fire scene had to be strange and surreal. Veloso shot at a low frame rate with a wide shutter to create a blurred, fever dream aesthetic. The crew also shot in previously burned forests, capturing the aftermath of a real fire. Through Veloso's lens, Train Dreams is a tactile, flickering meditation on time itself.

Ireland has spent the last two decades riding a unique position: European by treaty, American by economics, a “bridgehead” for US multinationals into the EU, and a country whose prosperity has quietly depended on America's outsized pull on global capital. But if the US and Europe drift into a real rupture, Ireland becomes the uncomfortable jockey straddling two horses heading in opposite directions. In this episode, we map the cold numbers behind Ireland's exposure, exports, FDI, and the corporate tax windfall, and then pivot to a genuinely optimistic idea: using the last of the US windfall not just to cushion the future, but to build it. Think infrastructure now, and a Schumpeter-style startup fund that turns the country into an innovation machine before the sugar daddy's money slows down. Hosted on Acast.
