In this episode of Crazy Wisdom, host Stewart Alsop talks with Kevin Smith, co-founder of Snipd, about how AI is reshaping the way we listen, learn, and interact with podcasts. They explore Snipd's vision of transforming podcasts into living knowledge systems, the evolution of machine learning from finance to large language models, and the broader connection between AI, robotics, and energy as the foundation for the next technological era. Kevin also touches on ideas like the bitter lesson, reinforcement learning, and the growing energy demands of AI.

By allowing listeners to “snip” and summarize meaningful moments, Snipd turns passive listening into active knowledge management—bridging curiosity, memory, and technology in a way that reframes podcasts as living knowledge capsules rather than static media.AI transforming how we engage with information: The discussion highlights how AI enables entirely new modes of interaction—chatting directly with podcast episodes, asking follow-up questions, and contextualizing information across an author's full body of work. This evolution points toward a future where knowledge consumption becomes conversational and personalized rather than linear and one-size-fits-all.Vectorization and context windows matter: Kevin explains that Snipd currently avoids heavy use of vector databases, opting instead to feed entire episodes into large models. This choice enhances coherence and comprehension, reflecting how advances in context windows have reshaped how AI understands complex audio content.Machine learning's roots in finance shaped early AI thinking: Kevin's journey from quantitative finance to AI reveals how statistical modeling laid the groundwork for modern learning systems. While finance once relied on rigid, theory-based models, the machine learning paradigm replaced those priors with flexible, data-driven discovery—an essential philosophical shift in how intelligence is approached.The Bitter Lesson and the rise of compute: Together they unpack Richard Sutton's “bitter lesson”—the idea that methods leveraging computation and data inevitably surpass those built from human intuition. This insight serves as a compass for understanding why transformers, pretraining, and scaling have driven recent AI breakthroughs.Reinforcement learning and data scarcity define AI's next phase: Stewart links RLHF and the work of companies like Scale AI and Surge AI to the broader question of data limits. Kevin agrees that the next wave of AI will depend on reinforcement learning and simulated environments that generate new, high-quality data beyond what humans can label.The future hinges on AI, robotics, and energy: Kevin closes with a framework for the next decade: AI provides intelligence, robotics applies it to the physical world, and energy sustains it all. He warns that society must shift from fearing energy use to innovating in production—especially through nuclear and solar power—to meet the demands of an increasingly intelligent, interconnected world.
The conversation is as all over the place as a drunkard's stroll. This week, the Dicks dive into a family controversy: was a nephew's school suspension for an edgy doodle justified or total bullshit? The debate quickly spirals into a chaos-fueled session featuring experimental nicotine pouches found outside the bar, a plan for a disc golf trip to the Keys, and a heated rundown of everything from Kevin Smith's filmography to the latest Epstein brother revelations. Strap in for a lesson in low-stakes degeneracy.
Mr. Kevin Smith shares how U.S. Military veterans, wounded or ill warriors, and their caretakers or companions can apply to go on the annual Warriors to Lourdes spiritual journey in May--all expenses paid, compliments of the Knights of Columbus and the Archdiocese for the Military Services, USA.

Mike & JD dive into wrestling's latest controversies and more in Episode 117 of The Mike & JD Show, on the Voices of Wrestling Network! We break down the drama as former WWE star Nixon Newell (Tegan Nox) and Miranda Alize reportedly walked out during the November 8, 2025, AEW Collision taping over creative issues, leading to a canceled match and Nixon announcing she's stepping away from wrestling after one final year.Plus, the heated AEW National Title discourse—AEW's decision to create a new National Championship and adopt the lineage of the historic NWA National Title, currently held by Mike Mondo, has sparked backlash from NWA wrestlers and officials accusing Tony Khan's promotion of copying and confusing fans. With AEW already loaded with titles, is this one too many?We also discuss the end of Deadlock Pro Wrestling, as the indie promotion announces an indefinite hiatus after their December 12, 2025, fundraiser show and one final event in Japan in 2026. And why sports on HBO Max (now Max) aren't boosting wrestling viewership as hoped, with AEW's simulcasts not counted in Nielsen ratings under the new system, leading to slashed numbers for Dynamite and Collision.Finally, we switch gears to movie talk, debating classics like Gremlins, Kevin Smith films, and the underrated greatness of the Masters of the Universe movie.Watch on the Mike & JD Show YouTube channel (youtube.com/@mikeandjdshow) and follow us on X—Mike (@MikeGilbert311) and JD (@jd_oliva).Want ad-free episodes and exclusive wrestling content?

Felicity Beckett talks to filmmaker Kevin Smith about his classic movie, Dogma, currently getting the 4K re-release treatment in cinemas. Twenty-five years ago, Kevin Smith unleashed Dogma, a sharp, irreverent religious satire that sparked conversation, controversy, and cult fandom around the world. In this remastered 4K edition, Dogma: Resurrected!, reintroduces the story of Bartleby (Ben Affleck) and Loki (Matt Damon), two banished angels who seek to exploit a theological loophole and return to Heaven, thereby inadvertently nullifying all of existence. A reluctant abortion clinic worker (Linda Fiorentino) is tasked with stopping them, guided by a heavenly host that includes the last scion of Christ, a muse, a pair of prophets, and the voice of God.With its razor-sharp dialogue, philosophical underpinnings, and genre-blending boldness, Dogma remains as provocative and funny now as it was in 1999, if not more so.

This job would be great if it wasn't for the customers.We're heading back to October 19, 1994, to talk about Clerks — the scrappy, black-and-white indie that turned convenience store chaos into cinematic history. Shot for $27,000 on maxed-out credit cards, Kevin Smith's debut launched a generation of filmmakers (and Jay & Silent Bob) while capturing the sarcasm, boredom and pop-culture debates of ‘90s slackerdom.Nathan is joined by Marisa Boyd for a conversation about Clerks' raw DIY spirit, its laugh-out-loud realism and why the female characters might just be the smartest people in the room. They also reminisce about video stores, Magic Eye posters, the power of the Weezer Blue Album and that unforgettable “37” scene.It's a love letter to indie film, Gen-X humor and the jobs we couldn't wait to quit.Read Nathan's thoughts on Clerks.Support the podcast: https://www.buymeacoffee.com/moviesarelife
Got feedback about this episode? Send Carolyn a textKevin Smith is a 56-year-old masters runner and multiple Canadian record holder from Mississauga, Ontario. When he turned 55, Kevin set out on an audacious mission: to chase 12 Canadian road running records in 12 months. He achieved 6 of them — and “failed” at 6 — but Kevin doesn't see that as a setback. For him, failure is simply the toll we pay for chasing big dreams. And nobody, he claims, has failed more than he has!Kevin discovered his potential as a high school athlete under the guidance of a coach who helped him fall in love with the sport. But his journey has been far from linear. Kevin has battled more than his fair share of injuries over the years — any one of which could have ended his running career. A physiotherapist once told him he should have never taken up the sport in the first place! Instead, Kevin doubled down on understanding his body, created what he calls "exercise snacks," and learned the importance of the other 23 hours a day when he's not running.Those decades of perseverance have paid off. Kevin is now one of the top masters runners in North America… and even the world. Along the way he built a business — Marathon Dynamics Inc.— to help others train smarter, stay healthy, and keep chasing their own finish lines.If you're an injury-prone runner or someone who feels like you've had more setbacks than successes, this episode will inspire you to keep going. Because with enough patience, curiosity, and grit, you too can become a “pretty old runner who runs pretty fast.”In This Episode, We Talk About:How Kevin reignited his passion for running later in lifeThe mindset behind his “12 records at 55” questWhy failure is a critical ingredient of successHow he gamified Strava and embraced “exercise snacks”The key lifestyle habits that matter more than mileageHis role as coach and founder of Marathon DynamicsWhy it's never too late to get fasterKevin's Canadian M55-59 Records5 Mile - 27:51 - Waterloo Runway 5 Miler - Aug 202515K - 53:19 - (within the) Cherry Blossom 10 Mile (Wash/US) - Apr 202510 Mile - 57:29 - Cherry Blossom 10 Mile - Apr 2025 (had broken/set the record previously in Dec 2024 at the Boxing Day 10 Miler in Hamilton)Half Marathon - 1:15:42 - Toronto Waterfront Half - Oct 202430K - 1:54:02 - (within the) Toronto Waterfront Marathon - Oct 25Connect with Kevin:Instagram: @marathondynamics Website: marathondynamics.comConnect with Inspired Soles & Carolyn:Instagram: @inspiredsolescast or @carolyn.c.coffinBrowse 250+ episodes in the archivesSubscribe, rate & review to support the showYou can help spread the running love!

emocleW, emocleW, emocleW to the Distraction Pieces Podcast with Scroobius Pip!This is your bonus FRIDAY REWIND episode! Today, we catch up with Kevin Smith, originally episode 302 from 2019-12-04.Original writeup below:SNOOCHIE BOOCHIES! What a joy this is… While it is a slightly shorter episode, Pip could hardly turn Kevin down now could he…? Exactly. Unthinkable. So sit back and enjoy as Kevin essentially takes the reins with this one! It was expected though, as Kevin has basically found his true North by way of talking and telling stories for a living these days. But that's not to say he's thrown in the towel on films - oh good god no, as you will surely be aware of by the fact that his Jay & Silent Bob Reboot film is out and about and making much noise in the View Askew-niverse. This here is a chance to hear all about that, and the past hits in the Smith catalogue, as well as a gang of talking points including his gratefulness for being able to express himself for a living, the difference between making podcasts and movies, the younger Smith laying the foundations for later on, the power of the Q&A, brushes with death, and tons more but all held together with a true understanding of what he means to his fanbase and the importance of his products. A delightful whirlwind - enjoy!PIP'S PATREON PAGE if you're of a supporting natureINSTAGRAMJAY AND SILENT BOB REBOOTVIEW ASKEWSMODCASTCALM main linkCALM donate linkDAN LE SAC VS SCROOBIUS PIP BANDCAMPPIP TWITCH • (music stuff)PIP INSTAGRAMSPEECH DEVELOPMENT WEBSTOREPIP TWITTERPIP IMDBPOD BIBLE Hosted on Acast.

Alejandro Montoya Marin's 'The Unexpecteds' is the kind of fast, fun, and hilarious indie gem that I love to spotlight on Geekscape! I went to the Los Angeles premiere of the film, not knowing what to expect, and immediately fell in love with the high-energy underdog story about a team of scammed and down-and-out cast-offs putting together a heist to get their money back! Starring Matt Walsh and executive produced by Kevin Smith, the film is now available on digital and is going to be an indie cult favorite. Join Geekscape as I talk with 'The Unexpecteds' filmmaker Alejandro Montoya Marin about putting the film together, working with indie film legends like Robert Rodriguez and Kevin Smith, and his journey as a storyteller!

Can Hector track down a beast that doesn't want to be found, clear his own name, AND save a struggling local business at the same time? [rating:2.5/5] MATTHEW FANTASTIC FOUR/GARGOYLES (2025) ONE-SHOT Writer: Greg Weisman Artist: Enid Balam Publisher: Marvel Comics Cover Price: $5.99 Release Date: October 15, 2025 MARVEL'S FIRST FAMILY UNITES WITH THE MANHATTAN CLAN IN THIS EXCITING CROSSOVER! GARGOYLES creator and acclaimed Marvel writer Greg Weisman brings the Gargoyles to the Baxter Building alongside star artist Enid Balám! Danger strikes when the super villain Diablo learns stone gargoyles may hold the secret to eternal life…but the Gargoyles aren't about to let him leech the blood of his own! Fortunately, they've got the help of expert Diablo-bashers - the Fantastic Four! Plus: Tony Stark and David Xanatos compare facial hair, Marvel's own Gargoyle, Isaac Christians, bonds with his new kin, and more! You won't want to miss this collision of beloved universes! [rating:3.5/5] RODRIGO WAR WOLF #1 Writer: Steve Orlando Artist: Marco Perugini Publisher: Mad Cave Studios Cover Price: $4.99 Release Date: October 22 After he fends off an alien invasion, Thomas Bruin goes from a nobody security guard to Earth's greatest hero! He's got a supercharged launchpad and no ceiling. Bruin rises from celebrity to congress, then to the head of the planet's first orbital security force. He's married into one of the country's most powerful political families, he's surfing a wave of endorsements, and he's the very symbol of human resilience. So why is Bruin nervous? Because only he knows his great victory is a lie. When the aliens return to Earth, stronger than ever, Bruin has no choice but to be the hero he's fooled the whole world into thinking he is…or die trying. [rating: 2.5/5] DISCUSSION BATMAN AND ETRIGAN Etrigan first appeared in The Demon #1 (September 1972) and was created by Jack Kirby. He created him at the behest of DC, who saw it as likely to be more commercially successful than the Fourth World and cancelled New Gods and Forever People to facilitate work on the new title. According to Evanier, Kirby had no interest in horror comics, but created Mark Etrigan in response to DC's demand for a horror character. Kirby was annoyed that Etrigan's popularity forced him to abandon the Fourth World titles before he was done with them. Etrigan returned for a four-issue miniseries in 1987, written and illustrated by Matt Wagner. Alan Grant followed this with an Etrigan feature in Action Comics Weekly #636-641 and a second ongoing title in 1990. The 1990 series lasted 58 issues, two Annuals and one #0 issue. Garth Ennis took over the title beginning with issue #40. Ennis' run included the first appearance of his character Hitman. This series was followed by a miniseries, Driven Out. Following this, John Byrne's Blood of the Demon lasted 17 issues, and ignored much of the continuity that took place after Kirby's initial run. While his first monthly comic book series was short-lived, and his second was canceled after five years, Etrigan remains a popular supporting character with occasional additional miniseries. Series in which Etrigan has appeared include Alan Moore's Swamp Thing, Neil Gaiman's The Sandman, Kevin Smith's Green Arrow and Batman: The Widening Gyre, Garth Ennis's Hitman, and Cosmic Odyssey by Jim Starlin and Mike Mignola.
