MLS is here… and I think I just came up with a new way to attack it.In today's Sorare with Laird, I'm diving into Major League Soccer — but not in the way most managers are approaching it. I'm not blowing up my gallery. I'm not chasing every shiny in-season card. And I'm definitely not pretending budget doesn't matter.Instead, I'm testing something different.Is it smart?Is it reckless?Is it actually +EV long-term?I honestly don't know yet — but that's part of the fun.We'll talk about:• Why MLS is tempting right now• The risk/reward profile compared to Europe• What makes MLS uniquely attackable (or dangerous)• How I'm thinking about cost control while still trying to competeAnd yes… I'll explain why this might actually be a dumb idea.Didn't catch this live?

Bundesliga has been working. Contender has shown flashes.But Challenger and Ligue 1? It's been a grind.In today's Sorare with Laird, I'm asking a serious question: Should I sell some of my in-season cards to improve the teams that are actually performing?We'll break down:• My Bundesliga success and what's driving it• Why Challenger and Ligue 1 haven't clicked• Whether reallocating capital makes sense• The opportunity cost of holding underperforming stacks• Short-term cash vs. long-term ceiling• How this impacts hot streak potential and ROIThis isn't about rage quitting. It's about portfolio optimization.If you've ever looked at your gallery and wondered whether you're spreading yourself too thin, this one's for you.

Are Limited competitions actually the best place to play on Sorare?Today on Sorare with Laird,  @HarryTrades  joins me to break down whether many Limited managers would be better off playing Rare instead.We'll cover:

Kai Lenny breaks down the real story behind his tension with Laird Hamilton — the miscommunication, the “never meet your heroes” moment, and how they eventually squashed it. In this episode of Pinch My Salt, we go deep on big-wave surfing, tow-in surfing, foiling, stand-up paddling, windsurfing, kiteboarding, and what it actually takes to survive places like Nazaré and Jaws (Peʻahi). Kai shares insane behind-the-scenes stories from the lineup, near-death wipeouts, the chaos between sets, and why the ocean rewards the people who “read the room.” We also hit surf culture, waterman mindset, Red Bull athlete life, sponsorship reality, and the funniest fuel secret ever: Taco Bell bean burritos. Plus: gym/swim drama, relationship “cycle” theory, and the kind of unhinged comedy you expect from the Pinchers. Subscribe for surf podcast clips, big wave stories, waterman talk, and comedy with Sterling & Cousin Ryan.In this episode:Kai vs Laird: what happened + how it got fixedBig-wave reality: towing, barrels, hold-downs, lineup dangerFoiling + alternative crafts + why surfing needs a “new game”Burritos as performance fuel #KaiLenny #LairdHamilton #SurfPodcast #BigWaveSurfing #Jaws #Nazare #Foiling #Waterman #StandUpPaddling #TowInSurfing #SurfCulture #RedBull #PinchMySalt

The Sport.Fun NFL offseason is here; could it be the biggest opportunity of the year?On this week's Sport.Fun Strategy Show, psufans2 and Laird break down how you can realistically grow your player share portfolio by doing… absolutely nothing.As others rotate out of NFL, shift capital into football, or move into the $FUN token, share prices fluctuate. That movement can create accumulation opportunities — but at what cost?We discuss:• Why off-season volatility may benefit passive managers• Whether current share prices actually look attractive• The risk of further downside before any rebound• How capital rotation affects long-term portfolio growth• Whether “doing nothing” is a strategy — or just hopeIs this a smart way to build for the next season… or are we just catching falling knives?Join Sport.Fun today: https://pro.sport.fun/login/?referral_code=UITMX28FXU9Note: nothing in this video should be considered financial advice.

Do you keep getting stuck in the same fights or feeling rejected in your relationship? In this episode of The Wise Effort Show, Dr. Diana Hill shares an evidence-based talk on the science of “wise and fierce” relationships, then follows with a conversation with athlete and entrepreneur Gabby Reece about what helps partnerships last.Diana draws on relationship research and her clinical experience to explain why conflict isn't the main problem—repair is—and on what predicts relationship satisfaction: commitment, appreciation, responsiveness, and sexual satisfaction. She also discusses research on sexual frequency and how motivation matters more than frequency (“getting it on” vs. “getting it over with”).Diana offers a practical exercise to help listeners “put down the broom” of rigid stories: write your story about your partner and their story about you, identify the “negative truth,” then (1) create disconfirming evidence by noticing what contradicts your story about them, and (2) do something that proves their story about you wrong. In the conversation, Gabby describes how respect, emotional honesty, daily connection rituals, and sustaining momentum—along with supporting each partner's individual passions—strengthen her decades-long marriage to Laird, and they discuss reframing intimacy bids and avoiding complacency.Listen and share this episode with someone you want to strengthen a relationship with.Listen and learn:Why repair after disharmony matters more than avoiding conflictThe key relationship ingredients identified across 43 studies: commitment, appreciation, responsiveness, and sexual satisfactionWhat the research suggests about sex frequency and why “getting it on” vs. “getting it over with” changes satisfactionRelated ResourcesGet enhanced show notes for this episodeOrder my book, Wise Effort: How to Focus Your Genius Energy on What Matters Most, and receive special bonus gifts.Want to become more psychologically flexible?

The NFL season is officially over, so what happens next on Sport.Fun?On this episode of SDF with Laird, I'm joined by psufans2 to break down what the post-Super Bowl landscape looks like across the platform. We dig into the biggest question on everyone's mind: where does the money go now?We'll discuss:• Will capital stay parked in NFL.Fun, even with no games being played?• Does liquidity rotate into Football.Fun as football ⚽️ takes center stage?• Can the $FUN token be the real beneficiary of the NFL offseason?• Or do users simply pull money off the platform entirely?If you're holding NFL shares, considering reallocating to football, or trying to understand the broader Sport.Fun economy, this is a must-watch conversation.

I've never worked for Sorare...but I've also never actively tried to.That's not an accident.In this live stream, I'm explaining why I continue to create content about Web3 platforms, including Sorare, instead of trying to work for them.We'll talk about:• Why independence matters when covering evolving Web3 games• The difference between being a creator, a partner, and an employee• How incentives change when you work inside a platform• Why I believe creators add more value staying external• What this means for trust, criticism, and long-term sustainabilityThis isn't a criticism of Sorare or any other platform, it's about how I think creators can best serve their audience in Web3.If you create content, or consume a lot of it, this conversation applies far beyond Sorare.Support the content by becoming a member of the Laird Social Club or the Sorare with Laird channel: https://patreon.com/andrewmlaird

The original podcast post is here: https://pixelatedgeek.com/2026/01/binary-system-podcast-491-strange-new-worlds-lower-decks-crossover/It's a good thing Kathryn watched the Star Trek Strange New Worlds/Lower Decks crossover this week, mostly because now we can talk about how awesome it is that the actors who voiced the animated characters got to play the live-action versions in an episode that was equal parts heartwarming and freaking hilarious.But it's also good because it's literally the only new thing either of us watched all week. Sure, we could be catching up on all the Oscar noms but nooooo, we're rewatching Hannibal (third time through) and Midsommar (fourth time through...maybe fifth?) and the Pear Cider and Cigarettes commentary (oh we've lost count), because we need serious comfort watching on account of ice storms and I don't know THE WORLD?This week's outro is a clip from Circles by Roy Colwin.Looking for a present for that hard-to-shop-for person?

Actually four witnesses. And not one of them has any useful information.We don't know yet if people are being made to forget what they've seen, or are being prevented from saying what they know. What we do know is that you really shouldn't announce confidential information over the radio. Cecil. For crying out loud, that's dangerous. Well, relatively dangerous. This is after all a town with student films that cause grievous bodily harm, fundraisers that involve kidnapping and ransom demands, and a political party that's defunding cancer research. Oh wait, that last one's happening in the real world too. Did we get too political there? NOT SORRY.Of course we also have to talk about the latest developments in the Neil Gaiman trashfire, but we balanced that out with some good news about DesignerCon and RiffTrax/MST3K.

On today's Sorare with Laird, Harry Trades and I dig into a stretch of recent activity on Sorare that might signal something important: prices going...up?We'll break down notable transactions, discuss what they actually mean (and what they don't), and talk through whether this is just short-term noise or the early signs of a healthier market environment. From pricing behavior to buyer confidence, we're looking at the data and the vibes to see if Sorare is quietly finding its footing again.Support our content by becoming a member of our communities.Harry's YouTube Community

In this episode, Dr Margaret Storrie talks about her latest book, focussing on the unconventional life of Lady Charlotte Bury Campbell, who was known as a notorious diarist (think Lady Whistledown) in the time of George IV, a popular novelist and mother of 11. Lady Charlotte's oldest son was Walter Frederick Campbell, who became Laird of Islay and named Port Charlotte after his mother. Margaret is a long-time resident of Port Ellen and is the author of "Islay: Biography of an Island".FeaturingGuest: Margaret StorrieHost: Jolyon ThurgoodAcknowledgementsMany thanks to Margaret.and is availableMusic :  Kaazoom Pixabay 447800Production Team: Jolyon Thurgood and Gordon Bermingham

In this episode of TMNT Nerds, we dive headfirst into Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles: The Last Ronin—the dark, emotional future of the Turtles we never knew we needed. We break down the story's origins, its connection to early Eastman & Laird ideas, and why this book hits so hard for longtime fans. From the weight of loss and legacy to the brutal, grounded tone that sets it apart from traditional TMNT stories, we talk about what makes The Last Ronin such a standout moment in the franchise.We also dig into the art, action, and character work, discuss how it recontextualizes everything we know about the Turtles, and debate where it ranks among the best TMNT stories ever told. Whether you're a lifelong shellhead or just discovering this era of TMNT, this episode is a spoiler-filled, fan-driven conversation about grief, perseverance, and what it really means to be the last one standing.

Sorare Set was announced yesterday—and the reactions across the Sorare Pro community have been immediate and wide-ranging.In today's Sorare with Laird, I'm joined by Harry Trades to break down what experienced Sorare managers are actually saying about Set after the announcement. We'll focus less on the feature list and more on the sentiment: excitement, skepticism, concerns, and where this could fit (or not fit) into the broader Sorare ecosystem.Topics include:• Initial reactions from Pro managers and long-time players• What people like about Sorare Set—and what they're unsure about• How Set fits alongside Pro competitions, Hot Streaks, and collections• Whether this feels like a meaningful addition or a parallel experience• The big questions managers are asking going forwardThis is a conversation grounded in community feedback, not theory, drawing directly from what we're seeing in our Discords, DMs, and comment sections since the announcement.Let us know in the chat what you think about Sorare Set and how you see it fitting into your Sorare experience.

Welcome back everyone, I'm your host Aisling Keenan and you're listening to Everymum the podcast. We're deep into season 18 now which is wild. This episode was a treat for me to record because the guest is a good friend of mine, the lovely Pamela Laird came on to chat to me about how she's finding motherhood so far with her three month old daughter. One of the things we chat about is how Pam has managed to stay feeling like 'herself' through pregnancy and motherhood, and while obviously things are really different from pre-baby, she says she still feels like who she always was. That really struck me as unique, because I know I didn't feel that way and so many mothers I know don't, so it was really refreshing to hear. I loved hearing a really positive parenting story too, because so often we find issues and I know I can focus on the negatives too sometimes. Enjoy this episode, enjoy hearing Pam's daughter's super gorgeous and very unique name, and I'll be back soon with more. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

Four years of gang wars and prison riots, backroom deals and family ties, unbreakable loyalty and horrific betrayal, and it all brings us to the final episode of Mayor of Kingstown, where......hang on, what's that? So this isn't the final season? Well, we can't say we're all that surprised, because while this season has had its share of major characters buying the farm, there's still way too many people still standing for it to be the the end of the story.Episode 10 of season 4 wraps up with a ton of violence, a lot of surprising actions (some of them being surprisingly stupid, jeez, you guys, could you not?), and some deaths, but not as many as we were expecting. Tune in for all the spoilers, but unlike some organizations we're not going to put any spoilers in the headline. (Why would you do that?)This week's outro is a clip from Atomika Bass Revolt by TeknoAXE.Correction: when we're talking about the awful scene where the Colombian assassin is getting out of the handcuffs, we mentioned "Dolores Claiborne." We meant "Gerald's Game." Stupid parallel stories that had no valid reasons for BEING parallel.Looking for a present for that hard-to-shop-for person?

If you had money to deploy on SDF, where would you put it: football or America football?On today's SDF with Laird, I'm joined by Palmer to break down the top plays across both sports, comparing upside, volatility, and payout potentials. Rather than just listing picks, we frame this as a capital allocation problem:• Where is the best value right now?• Which sport offers more asymmetric upside?• How contest structure, player pricing, and field behavior change the calculusIf you're deciding where to focus your bankroll, or just want to understand how we think about risk vs. reward across sports, this episode is for you.Not financial advice. Entertainment and analysis purposes only.

In today's SDF with Laird, I explain why SDF is different, and not just in one way. We'll break it down across three angles: • Why SDF is different in crypto: real ideas, real incentives, real revenue• Why SDF is different in web3: actual transparency, strong focus on actual gameplay and user experience • Why SDF is different in fantasy sports: ownership without lineups, less DNP stress, and a system built around enjoyment If you've bounced off crypto projects, web3 games, or traditional fantasy sports before, this episode explains why SDF might finally feel right.Join SDF today: https://pro.sport.fun/login/?referral_code=UITMX28FXU9Disclaimer: This show is for informational and entertainment purposes only and is not financial advice.

The second half of the Sorare season is nothing like the first, and that's going to change how everyone plays.In today's Sorare with Laird, I'm joined by Harry Trades to break down why the dynamics of the game shift so dramatically after the midpoint of the season, especially in Rare and Super Rare competitions.We'll discuss:• Why there are fewer cards available on the market as the season goes on• How XP gains and collection bonuses make existing cards significantly more powerful• Why lineup strength starts to matter more than raw spending• How this impacts buying, selling, and roster construction in the second half• What managers should be doing now to prepare for what's comingIf your early season strategy relied on easy upgrades and plentiful supply, the back half of the season can be a wake-up call. This stream is about understanding that shift and adapting before you fall behind.Join Harry's YouTube Community: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UC8HSj8vZDHSGmk5yP46SjtQ/membershipBecome a Laird Social Club Member: https://patreon.com/andrewmlaird

This playlist is 67% vinyl friendly. Poor. ‘In the year 2021, few turntables have captured the essence of that time the way that the Old Future Turntable and Speaker has. The silhouette of the player itself pays homage to ’70s architecture in Seoul. Slanted roofs were common during that era, and when you place the turntable and speaker side-by-side, they look like part of a ’70s city skyline. Some vinyl-lovers may not like this product initially because a flat, horizontal turntable would be preferred for sound quality. For those who care about audio quality over aesthetics, the turntable's legs are adjustable, so you can make the table more even‘. – yankodesign.com Looks like it could more readily blow out hot and cold air than music.

This though is a mighty tune. 09.19 BLAWAN – Toast – Dismantled Into Juice, 12″ EP – XL Recordings – 2023 Nicely odd, with a ‘chorus’ that makes me smile. 11.56 BASETANK – Got Some Skills – The New Breed, v/artists promo only CD – Detonation – 1999 If it wasn’t for the 35 year age gap I might have said the vocalist on Got Some Skills and the modern day Microwave Man and his electric dirt bike online ‘Let Me Tell You Something, right?‘ words of wisdom sketches were of the same family. 15.44 9 LAZY 9: Turn Me Loose; UP, BUSTLE & OUT: Nightwalk; DJ FOOD: Klutes Groove; DJ TOOLZ: Rusty Goes GaGa; FUNKI PORCINI: It’s A Long Road – The Morning After The Night Before (one half of a CD free with DJ magazine – 1994 Old skool mixing from Cold Cut. ‘It’s (been) a long road… ‘ indeed. 22.00 HERCULES & LOVE AFFAIR (feat HIPS & LIPS) – Someone Else Is Calling, 12″ EP – Stratasonic – 2025 The sort of hypnotic beats that could have fitted in with a Winkles, Bedford set list back in the ’80s… although someone might point a sound or two here didn’t exist back then. 26.12 FUNKY GREEN DOGS – The Way * – 12″ – Twisted – 1997 ‘Anyone who ever liked That Sound from the Murk camp will like this just as much, even if they do whinge that it’s very similar to their previous favourite. The original is the heart-winner with its quivering vocal and acid-meets-funk groove, but the mixes are all attractive in their respective ways – Farley & Heller plod sweetly, Canadian Crash Productions do something along the same lines. Dirty White Boy rock and roll and Club 69 kick up a noisy messy rumpus. The best track of all is possibly the excellent FGD way-out beats. **** Daisy & Havoc, Record Mirror (Music Week), 10.5.97 Tough, liquidy goings on from the Murk camp. I was a fan. 32.51 JOY – Fragile Space – 7″ – DB-Low – 2000 ‘Isaac Hayes meets Led Zeppelin‘ ran the press release for Joy Jones’ one-off (at the time) dip into music, and there’s something sad about a single of substance that didn’t do enough for the artist to build on. 35.52 TALKING HEADS – Listening Wind – Remain In Light, LP – Sire – 1980 Just checked. This is the last in a near complete run of the album’s tracks making it to 41 Rooms. So, that must make Remain In Light a bit of a classic to my ears. 39.36 THE SOULSAVERS – Rumblefish – Beginning To See The Dark 12″ – Ghost Ride Music – 2002 The sort of drifting beats thing that would crop up late night/early morning on KISS FM or maybe Ross Allen radio shows of the time. 43.28 BETHANY & RUFUS – 900 Miles – 900 Miles, CD only – Little Monster Records – 2005 With Bethany being the daughter of ’60s folk group, Peter Paul and Mary’s Pete Yarrow, an ancient tune reworked. And it’s a cello apparently, not a double bass. 46.48 STARGARD – (Theme Song From) Which Way Is Up – 7″ – MCA -1977 As funky now as the day it was delivered. I was 20… and this would have been hitting someone’s decks at Bedford’s Nite Spot, Spectrum, Pilgrims, The Anglers’ Laird bar and elsewhere out of town I went. 51.29 THE STAPLE SINGERS – I’ll Take You There – 7″ – Stax – 1972 They never let on where exactly ‘there’ is but with their gospel background we can maybe guess. Good luck with it. 55.30 CARLA THOMAS – Things Ya Make Me Do (Summer Mix) – 12″ – Ruff Justice – 1994 Not the ’60s Stax label Carla Thomas but it’d be nice to think this CT’s parents had that lady in mind when naming this lady. What might have been tagged ‘street soul’… and possibly out of Manchester, UK. 59.06 THOMAS DYBDAHL – All’s Not Lost – That Great October Sound, CD only – Checkpoint Charlie Audio Productions – 2001 Delicate sounds from Norway. 01.04.06 PURESSENCE – Don’t Know Any Better – 7″ – Reaction Records – 2008 James Mudriczki’s vocal… 01.07.22 DAVID SYLVIAN – Nostalgia – Brilliant Trees, LP – Virgin – 1994 Post Japan, his first solo album making its mark in fine style. It was unlikely to do otherwise. 01.12.57 JOY DIVISION – Insight – The Peel Sessions, 12″EP – Strange Fruit – 1986 Peel sessions sort of mimicked a live gig recording at its crystal clear best… this one included. 01.16.50 SIOUXSIE and THE BANSHEES – Christine (Warner Chappell demo) – Kaleidoscope, CD only – Polydor – 2006 With everyone and everything here ‘battling’ to be the most understated – and with it all quite possibly recorded in a rehearsal room, on the likes of (say) a 4-track Portastudio – this is as demo’ish as a major act’s demo could sound back then. 01.19.32 THE FLAMINGOS – Shone Like The Sun #3 (unreleased demo) – 1984 With Cliff (Peacock) in Scott Walker-mode there were a few versions of this tune and to these ears it sounds even better now than it did back then. In effect the above might have doubled as my 27th birthday party and Shone Like The Sun was very likely on the Flamingos set list. 01.24.12 THE WAKE – Make You Understand – Here Comes Everybody, CD only comp – Factory Benelux – 2015 Recorded for a Feb ’84 BBC Radio 1 session for David/Kid Jensen and played live but the former only ever surfaced on the above. Stephen, Mac, Carolyn and Caesar: Winkles, Bedford, 13.11.83 Photo credit/copyright: Dec Hickey 01.26.33 LITTLE NEMO – Bed In Summer – La Cassette Froide, split cassette (with Rain Culture) – self released – 1986 Not the first European band in the mid to late ’80s to have sounded as if heavily influenced by UK bands of the early ’80s and with a track only to be found on this cassette. I won’t be acquiring one any time soon. 01.30.27 THE STRANGLERS – London Lady – 7″ – United Artists – 1977 Yep, Jean-Jacques Burnel with a lyric or two (well, one in particular) that we youth most probably laughed through back in the day but now would maybe slightly wince at. The times… 01.32.52 ELVIS COSTELLO – (I Don’t Want To Go To) Chelsea – 7″ – Radar – 1978 I had a brief moment with Declan’s singles around this time… and you had to admire the balls of a musician who wanted to strike out as an Elvis. 01.35.53 THE SUB ENSEMBLE – Faster Than The Sun (Domu Remix) – Download only – 2008 Very short-lived crew aided and abetted here by acclaimed Bedford-based (then, anyway) DJ, producer, remixer, Domu. 01.41.01 JAZZ THE GLASS – 16 Seconds – Download only, Soundcloud – 2019 A 41 Rooms regular, with another winner. Dave reminded me it uses a sample from a US boy band. I think it was a white label 12″ with anonymous writing (just initials?), that I took a punt on at no more than 20p. 01.44.47 FPI PROJECT – Come On (And Do It) (TC Funky Mix) – 12″ – Synthetic Records – 1993 ‘Tremendous funky Italian offering as ever from those talented members of Ital’s most consistent band. Chocca full of good alternative mixes, including a wicked guitar ladened TC Funky mix… ‘ – Kenny Grogan, Mixmag Update, 28.4.93 ‘Everything you love/hate about Italian records in double helpings. Very FPI Project but bang on time with its riffing flamenco-style guitar and a bundle of irresistibly funked up mixes firm Mother-man Lee Fisher, which include a wonderful reinvention of the bouncy original into a big booming beast of a track‘. Matthew Cole, Record Mirror (Music Week), 10.7.93 ‘Girl chanted powerful Hamilton Bohannon-ish happy party pounder’s original Gypsy Kings-like guitars strummed 125bpm Official, 125.2bpm Gipsy, TC 1993 wukka-wukked 125.2bpm TC Funky Mixes, new sax squawked jerkily percussive building 124.9bpm Mothers At Work Remix and Dub‘. – James Hamilton, Record Mirror (Music Week), 7.8.93 As mentioned on the show, a one and a bit trick pony but sometimes a funky break and some vocal snippets is all you need for some head nodding bizniz. 01.49.36 CHEZ DAMIER & CO-INSIDE – Give A Little Love (Made In Detroit Mix) – The United States EP, 12″ – t:ime – 1993 ‘Nottingham’s Sine boys have always (worn) worthier US influences on their sleeves. This time they make a more permanent connection with two excellent transatlantic collaborations. Their Made In Detroit Mix of Give A Little Love by Chez Damier & Co-Inside is a supremely cool organ-washed garage groove with the repeated title line drifting in and out of the mix. It becomes less mellow and more dubby as it progresses…‘ – Andy Beevers, Record Mirror (Music Week), 4.9.93 And yet another tune with a minimal use of different lyrics… and here you’re not getting the full nine minutes they’re spread over on the 12″. Still, jaunty US house with a bit of a UK ’90s garage’y feel… and I think I edited out some frogs sounds. 01.53.15 THE REESE PROJECT – The Colour of Love (Groove Corporation Trance Mix) * – 12″ – Network – 1992 ‘Even by his own standards, Kevin Saunderson is having a good year. With Inner City firmly re-established as one of the world’s leading dance acts, he now takes the limelight under his alter-ego for what will be one of the biggest tunes of the year. The Deep Reese mix (featured on the Network ‘Elixir Vitae’ double pack extravaganza that some might say is their apology for KWS) is still the one for me. The coffee table intro soaring into a menacing groove with the hookiest of vocal samples… bliss. But wait, let us not forget Groove (aka Electribe 101) Corporation’s four mixes full of true British grit and trance appeal… ‘ – Dave Seaman ****1/2 Mixmag Update, July 9, ’92. ‘Kevin ‘Master Reese’ Saunderson’s powerful Rachel Kapp wailed Club Chart topper is now out on one single in brilliant swimming bass pulsed wriggly warbling 121.6bpm Magic Juan Atkins Mix, gospelishly started hypnotically chugging (0-)123.4bpm Deep Reese Mix, piano plonked 121.6-121.5bpm Underground Resistance Mix, repetitively stuttered Kym Sims-ish 122-122.1bpm MK Deep Dub, good insistently rolling 114.7-114.8bpm Groove Corporation Trance Mix and bass bubbled blippy 114.9-114.8bpm Groove Corporation Wobble Dub, while the first of the separate promos had its throbbing somehow then steady 115bpm Vocal (Trance Mix) and 115-114.9bpm Acid Revival (Wobble Dub), plus alternative swirlingly chugging 115bpm Plae Blue Mix and Instrumental Groove Corporation 021 Remixes‘. – James Hamilton, Record Mirror (Music Week), 1.8.92 Slinky Saunderson… and albeit it the same theme, a thousand miles from Terry Callier’s What Colour Is Love in every other way.

EPISODE SUMMARY In this episode, Emily sits down with volleyball legend Gabby Reece—professional athlete, podcast host of The Gabby Reece Show, entrepreneur—to talk about the unsexy truths that actually keep long-term relationships alive. Gabby pulls no punches as she reveals her controversial "48-hour sex rule," and how treating sex like going to the gym (just get your shoes on and show up) has sustained their passion for decades. This conversation dismantles the romanticized version of marriage and replaces it with raw honesty about vulnerability, stoicism almost ending her relationship, and why "misogynists are bitches" but real masculinity is powerful, protective, and tender. Gabby shares her four rules for keeping an alpha male happy (hint: food and sex made the list), the farmer versus flower dynamic that prevents resentment, and why her self-care hierarchy puts herself first, her relationship second, and her kids third—unapologetically. In this episode, you'll learn: • The 48-hour sex rule works—scheduling sex isn't sexy, but it's sexier than one partner begging and the other constantly rejecting; Gabby and Laird have sex every other day, and she admits she strategically loads her calendar the day after because she "doesn't have to answer to anyone" • Clear the decks daily to avoid divorce—Laird confronts everything immediately (every look, tone, word) so resentments never build; Gabby credits this practice with saving their marriage after years of her being too stoic nearly ended it • Understanding the farmer vs. flower dynamic—sometimes one partner is in the spotlight (the flower) while the other supports (the farmer), and the roles switch; when one person is always the farmer, resentment builds and relationships suffer • Real masculinity isn't misogyny—true masculine strength includes compassion, protection, and tenderness; we've trained men to feel bad about their masculinity, and bringing kindness (not anger) while setting boundaries helps everyone thrive • You have the goods—ask for what you want—Gabby's advice to young women about sex is radical: stop performing, start demanding your pleasure, and remember that good sex is about mutual understanding, not just one person's orgasm More Dr. Emily:  • Shop With Emily!

At what point does the current scarcity system stop working?On today's Sorare with Laird, I break down when Sorare may be forced to introduce a new card scarcity—and why that moment might be closer than many people think. We'll talk through supply growth, user expansion, lineup congestion, threshold pressure, and how each existing scarcity tier functions as the ecosystem scales.This isn't about predicting an announcement—it's about understanding the structural signals that would make a new scarcity inevitable, and what that could mean for collectors, competitors, and long-term strategy.

One of the world's oldest surviving novels was a queer book?!Today we meet Neil Laird and we're talking about the queer book that saved his life: The Satyricon by Petronius.Neil is a multiple Emmy-nominated Executive Producer who has worked extensively on both the network and production side of non-fiction TV since 1997. He's developed, overseen, and produced over 1,000 hours of non-fiction programs and specials in nearly every genre, with a particular passion, expertise, and contacts in history, archaeology, and international exploration. He write a series of satirical adventure novels: Prime Time Travelers, Prime Time Pompeii, and, the forthcoming Prime Time Troy. They're all about a time-traveling TV crew uncovering forgotten LGBTQ voices from the past.Petronius (20 C.E. - 66 C.E.) served as a Governor in the Roman Empire and ultimately as Consul, the most powerful position in the Empire. When he left public service, Emperor Nero named him the Arbiter Elegantiae, or master of elegance. A prominent writer, Petronius is considered the likely author of The Satyricon.Connect with Neilwebsite: neillaird.cominstagram: @primetimeauthorfacebook: facebook.com/neil-laird-authorOur BookshopVisit our Bookshop for new releases, current bestsellers, banned books, critically acclaimed LGBTQ books, or peruse the books featured on our podcasts: bookshop.org/shop/thisqueerbookBuy your copy of The Satyricon here: https://bookshop.org/a/82376/9780806144382For the forthcoming Prime Time Troy, as well as Prime Time Travelers and Prime Time Pompeii, check this out: https://www.amazon.com/stores/Neil-Laird/author/B0CYJ7HDB4Become an Associate Producer!Become an Associate Producer of our podcast through a $20/month sponsorship on Patreon!

Sorare has started rolling out its Winter updates, and while it's only the first step, it already raises bigger questions about what comes next.In today's Sorare with Laird, I'm joined by Harry Trades to talk through what we actually want to see in Sorare 27: from gameplay depth and progression systems to rewards, competition structure, and long-term engagement.This isn't a reaction stream just to complain or praise. It's a forward-looking discussion about where Sorare should be heading next, what's missing right now, and which changes would meaningfully improve the experience for committed managers.

In this conversation, Darin sits down with his longtime friend, athlete, and powerhouse human Gabby Reece to talk about what it really takes to grow up without shutting down. They go into childhood chaos, the gift and cost of competitiveness, and what it means to stay "dangerous" in the best way as you age — in your body, your relationships, and your purpose. Gabby opens up about losing her father young, being uprooted from the Caribbean, using sport as a lifeline, and eventually navigating fame, motherhood, and a marriage with Laird Hamilton under intense pressure. She and Darin get radically honest about boundaries, addiction, partnership, sleep, hormones, and why women's wisdom in midlife is massively undervalued.

Send us a textWhat happens when a pro athlete turned fitness leader faces the fight of his life? Mike Laird's journey is a raw, powerful story of survival, resilience, and purpose. After years of building fitness businesses and mentoring trainers, Mike's life changed with a shocking diagnosis: a rare appendix cancer. Following a grueling 10-hour surgery and months of recovery, he emerged with a scar that tells a bigger story—one of strength, perspective, and living “built for more.”In this conversation, Joey Pinz explores how Mike turned adversity into a mission to help others reclaim their health and mindset. From overcoming physical limitations to teaching trainers how to build meaningful careers, Mike's story proves that success isn't just measured by fitness goals—it's measured by impact.✨ Highlights:
