Langdon and Eden kick things off by talking about the uses of awards - how to follow them, what they're good for, and why! Then, they dive into John M. Ford's parallel reality version of cyberpunk with Web of Angels, his debut novel. Phone lines that span galaxies, crazy weird space opera, and a rough book that brims with passion!

Die Nostalgie ist ein Laster, welchem man sich versagen sollte. Denn für jedes Vergnügen, was uns im “Damals!!” genommen wurde, sagen wir: Rauchen in Flugzeugen, gibt es im Heute Ersatz. Hier: Internet in Flugzeugen! Ja, vorbei sind die Zeiten, in denen man sich in der Flughafenbuchhandlung eine Packung steuerfreie Lucky Strikes und einen dicken Dan Brown holte, um den Transatlantik-Flug zu überstehen. Heute kauft man sich für das gleiche Geld einen Internetpass und kocht sich über den Wolken das Hirn weich mit acht Stunden TikTok-Videos-Swipen. Das ist, zugegeben, deutlich gesundheitsschädigender als eine Schachtel Luckies (für alle Beteiligten), aber irgendwas ist ja immer.Dennoch kann ich nicht umhin, einen Verlust wirklich zu betrauern: den Verlust eines intellektuellen Vergnügens, einer albernen Freiheit, eines ungefährlichen Spaßes. Nein, Axel, Polenböller ist falsch. Es geht um die gute alte Verschwörungstheorie. Noch in den 2000ern habe ich Nächte damit verbracht, mir auf YouTube wilde Vorträge zu 9/11 anzuschauen. Tagelang hatten alte weiße Männer in Hobbykellern CNN-Footage solange zusammengetoastet, bis die Videorealität mit ihrem Weltbild in Kongruenz war und niemand hat sich einen Kopf gemacht, ob man beim Abrufen der Kunstwerke von Youtube getrackt wurde, denn, selbst wenn: Ja, Herr Falschgold kuckt alberne Amateurvideos, big deal. Aber es war auch eine den Kopf erwärmende Übung, sich in die zwei, drei Prozent der Leute reinzuversetzen, die die Filmchen kuckten und sich die Zeit nahmen, absatzweise Kommentare darunter zu schreiben. “Wieviel seines Hirns muss man ausschalten, bis 2+2 tatsächlich 5 ist?”, ist eine faszinierende Frage.Zwanzig Jahre später sind all diese Videos aus dem Normalo-Internet getilgt, zu groß ist der Hirnschwund in großen Teilen der Bevölkerung, sie könnte verunsichert werden, glaubt der Bürger doch heute wirklich jeden Scheiß und außerdem muss Platz gemacht werden im Internet für die wirklich manipulativen Kaliber, damit irgendwann auch der letzte Widerständige fünf Lichter sieht, statt vier.Stimmen uns Connaisseure der Kunstart “Verschwörungstheorie” diese Um- und Zustände traurig, wütend oder, s.o., einfach nur nostalgisch, so kann das für die professionellen Createure ruinös werden. Brachte Dan Brown nach seinem ersten Professor-Langdon-Buch “Illuminati” im Jahr 2000 die Fortsetzungen noch alle drei bis fünf Jahre heraus, brauchte er glatte acht für dessen jüngste Geschichte. Sie heißt “The Secrets of Secrets” und ich habe den Roman tatsächlich gelesen.Wollen wir doch mal spekulieren: Man kann vermuten, dass Dan Brown 2017, nach Veröffentlichung von Teil Fünf der Serie (”Origin”), kurz das Bankkonto gecheckt hat und sich an Teil Sechs machte. Kurz vor Fertigstellung zwang ihn dann Corona ins Homeoffice, wie den Rest der Weltbevölkerung. Für einen Schriftsteller ist das kein Problem, aber seine Zielgruppe, die Transatlantikfliegenden, brach komplett weg. Bummer. Wie er sich nun überrascht und leicht gelangweilt durch Facebook klickerte, wird ihm aufgefallen sein, dass die Menge und Verbreitung seines Markenzeichens, seines f*****g Spezialgebietes, des Dinges, in dem doch er die Koryphäe ist: die gemeine Verschwörungstheorie nämlich, dass diese sich so explosionsartig vergrößerten, dass vielleicht, so spekulieren wir, jemand zufällig auf genau die spinnerte Idee gekommen war, die er gerade in Buchform den Millionen schenken wollte. S**t. Was tun? Wahrscheinlich (wie gesagt, wir spekulieren hier nur) hat er nochmal von vorn angefangen und eine Story ersonnen, die in eine Gedankenlandschaft passt, wie wir sie alle seit dem Jahr 2020 ertragen müssen, eine Landschaft, die man im allgemeinen mit “Es ist eh alles egal” beschreibt. Weiß ist schwarz, gut ist böse, und alles ist erlaubt. Und alles ist egal.Alles? Nun, nicht alles, dachte sich Dan Brown und man muss ihm zugestehen, der Gedanke ist clever: Egal ist, ob sich die Börse von der Wirtschaft abkoppelt und deshalb alle ärmer werden; egal ist, ob sich das Weltklima um 1,5 Grad erhöht, während die USA Windparks verbieten; egal ist, ob Kinder an Masern sterben, weil ein Mann mit Wurm im Kopf Gesundheitsminister der reichsten Nation der Welt ist. Was nicht egal ist, selbst all den Wahnsinnigen, die an den drei vorbenannten Egalismen schuld sind: Ob man den s**t selbst noch erlebt. Einfacher: was niemandem egal ist, ist, dass man früher oder später sterben wird. Und dort setzt Dan Brown an und das ist brillant.Das schöne für diese Rezension ist, dass das gerade kein wirklicher Spoiler war, haut uns der Autor das doch so ziemlich auf den ersten Seiten vor die Füße. Wir wissen nur noch nicht: Warum? „Das entwickelt sich!“, wie Manfred Krug sagte, damals, und zwar gewohnt rasant. Die Story ist, von ein paar Rückblenden unterbrochen, eine, die sich über gerade mal einen Tag und einen halben erstreckt. Sie liest sich, wie man das von moderner Pageturnerware gewohnt ist, wie das Drehbuch für den zu erwartenden Film, in dem der mittlerweile neunundsechzigjährige Tom Hanks als Prof. Langdon definitiv ein Bodydouble brauchen wird, denn nicht nur rennt der Hauptheld mal locker früh halb sieben über die Karlsbrücke, nein, er rennt auch wieder zurück. Kurz danach schwimmt er dann, leicht unfreiwillig, in der Moldau. Im Februar. Zudem hat er sich verliebt, und zwar in seine ehemalige Professorin, ¡Holla! Wir werden im Kino also extrem weichgezeichnete GILFs sehen, bis uns der fade to black erlöst. Das wird hart. Ein Markenzeichen der Serie ist, dass Dan Brown seinen Protagonisten jetsetten lässt, wie seine primäre Zielgruppe. Von Rom, Paris, Florenz geht es diesmal nach, geographisch bewanderte Leserinnen haben es längst punktgenau verortet, ins goldene Prag, in die Stadt der hundert Türme. Wie Beate Baum letztens die Dresdner Neustadt als hyperlokales Setting benutzte, um Morde in deren Künstlerinnenmilieu aufzuklären, präsentiert Dan Brown uns auf der ersten Seite des Buches eine Karte der Prager Innenstadt und gibt den Fremdenführer. Im Schatten von Vyšehrad, Prager Burg und Veitsdom passieren die üblichen internationalen Intrigen, muss der Professor sich nur mithilfe seines genialen, rätsellösenden Kopfes aus brenzlichen Situationen befreien; Schießereien, Morde, Verfolgungsjagden halten uns am Ball, all das geschrieben in den mittlerweile üblichen minusklen Kapiteln von ein paar hundert Worten, über 137 sind es am Ende, auf dass man sich zwischen diesen Lesesnacks den Gargrad des Kopfinhalts mit zwei, drei Instareels auf “sehr soft” stellen kann. So soll das sein in einem Pageturner, so verlangt es der Lektor. Dan Browns real existierender bekommt übrigens in der Prof. Langdon Serie nicht zum ersten mal eine prominente Nebenrolle (was ich wirklich nice finde).Worauf der ganze Quatsch hinausläuft, ist lange unklar und nicht des Spoilerns Wert, denn die Story hat mit der Verschwörungstheorie nicht wirklich viel zu tun, letztere ist eher Mittel zum Zweck, der Hammer, der das Ding irgendwie passend machen soll. Was nicht heißt, dass Dan Brown nicht eine wirklich überraschende Wendung hat zum Schluss, da ist er schon Profi. Oder eben nicht zum Schluss. Irgendwie war der Lektor schon ein bisschen happy über seine Prominenz im Buch, so dass er sich selbst nicht aus den letzten fünfzig Seiten Abspann streichen wollte, die wir, nachdem schon alles klar war, überstehen müssen.Aber vielleicht hat Danny auch darauf bestanden, dass das alles drin bleibt, weil er da nochmal richtig seine Theorien ausbreiten kann. Denn Dan Brown ist, so weit ich das sehe, der einzige Erfolgsautor im Genre, der zu seinen absurden “Entdeckungen” steht und sich nicht dagegen wehrt, wenn Künstler und Werk in einen Topf geworfen werden. Das alles läuft natürlich unter “Anregung, den Status Quo zu überdenken” und ähnlichem Schwurbel (als würden Wissenschaftler das nicht den ganzen f*****g Tag lang machen), und das ist auch OK und war immer harmlos genug, bis es das nicht mehr war, siehe oben. Der zu hinterfragende Status Quo, den er sich in “The Secret of Secrets” herausgesucht hat, ist dankbarerweise ein recht harmloses Stück Pseudoscience. Zusammengefasst lautet seine These: “Die Realität ist nicht wie sie uns erscheint”. No s**t, sherlock. Gefühlt 1/3 aller TED-Talks in den 2010ern drehte sich genau darum. Dan Brown zitiert die üblichen Experimente, nach denen wir z.B. deutlich schneller auf externe Stimuli reagieren, als unser Hirn das eigentlich leisten kann. Er berichtet von den alten Programmen der CIA, in denen man “psychics” für das “remote viewing” züchten wollte, also, ein Medium in Langley verbindet sich mit einem Medium im Kreml und schon weiß LBJ, was Chruschtschow zum Frühstück hat. Er schreckt noch nicht mal vor dem in den 80ern allgegenwärtigen ESP zurück, über das sich schon die brillante TV Serie “The Americans” lustig gemacht hatte. Die Konsequenz aus all dem ist, irgendwie, lest den Humbug bitte selbst, dass wir alle unsterblich sind. Na also!All das wird ausgebreitet hinter einem Vorwort, welches behauptet, das alle im Buch erwähnten Experimente real wären. Nur dass halt die wenigsten davon reproduzierbar sind. Das spielt aber keine Rolle, so Dan Brown, denn die übergreifende Theorie im Buch erkläre ganz wundersam, dass all die Experimente gar nicht nachvollziehbar sein können! In der Wissenschaft nennt man das einen Zirkelschluss. Ich nenne es einen unterhaltsamen, mittelspannenden Pageturner zum Kopfausschalten in schweren, dunklen Zeiten. This is a public episode.

In this sermon from 1 Thessalonians 4:1–12 and Micah 6:6–8, Langdon Stewart continues the Effective Church series, exploring how followers of Jesus are called to live lives that please God through holiness and brotherly love. He explains that holiness means being set apart for God and continually growing in sanctification — learning self-control and resisting the sexual immorality that damages relationships and dishonours God. Langdon highlights Paul's countercultural message to the Thessalonian church, urging believers to reject impurity and live distinctly for Christ. He then unpacks Paul's call to brotherly love (“philadelphia”), showing that the Christian community is a family bound by genuine care and self-giving service. Finally, Langdon challenges listeners to live quietly, work diligently, and avoid relationships or habits that compromise the unity and witness of the church, reminding us that holiness and love are central to an effective and God-pleasing life.   5 Questions to Think About: What does it mean for you personally to live a life that pleases God, as Paul describes in 1 Thessalonians 4:1? How can you pursue holiness in practical ways — especially in areas where culture's values conflict with God's standards (1 Thessalonians 4:3–7)? What does “brotherly love” look like in the context of your church family, and how can you grow in showing it (1 Thessalonians 4:9–10)? How might leading a “quiet life” and working diligently demonstrate your faith to outsiders (1 Thessalonians 4:11–12)? In what ways do your relationships, actions, or words reflect God's holiness and love to others?   3 Things to Take Away from the Message: God's will is our sanctification — to live holy, set-apart lives that reflect His character (1 Thessalonians 4:3). Love is family-shaped — believers are called to genuine, sacrificial love that builds up the body of Christ (1 Thessalonians 4:9–10). Holiness and love strengthen witness — living with integrity, diligence, and compassion earns the respect of outsiders and honours God (1 Thessalonians 4:11–12).

The Secrets of Secrets by Dan Brown Accompanying celebrated academic, Katherine Solomon, to a lecture she's been invited to give in Prague, Robert Langdon's world spirals out of control when she disappears without trace from their hotel room. Far from home and well out of his comfort zone, Langdon must pit his wits against forces unknown to recover the woman he loves. But Prague is an old and dangerous city, steeped in folklore and mystery. For over two thousand years, the tides of history have washed back and forth over it, leaving behind echoes of everything that has gone before. Little can Langdon know that he is being stalked by a spectre from that dark past. He must use all of his arcane knowledge to decipher the world around him before he too is consumed by the rings of treachery and deception that have swallowed Katherine. Against a backdrop of vast castles, towering churches, graveyards buried twelve deep and labyrinthine underground passages, Langdon must navigate a shadow city hiding in plain sight, a city which has successfully kept its secrets for centuries and will not readily deliver them. This is a battlefield unlike any he has previously experienced, one on which he must fight not for his only life, but for the future of humanity itself.

Long term care (LTC) is a complicated, misunderstood, and emotional topic for any family to discuss. Even if you're a younger listener and think "Oh, this episode isn't applicable to me," I'd still encourage you to give it a listen as the topic of LTC is generational. On today's episode, Bryan and I discuss the basics of what LTC is and what it's not, the difference between LTC planning and LTC insurance, at what age a practice owner should consider evaluating options, and a tax-deductible way that practice owners can pay for the premium.   As a reminder, you can get all the information discussed in today's conversation by visiting our website at integratedpwm.com and clicking on the Learning Center.

The guys react to Trajan Langdon's most recent comments, expressing concern with the Pistons' president of basketball operations implying that Malik Beasley derailed their offseason plans.

You don't get a bigger breakout opportunity than a show like The Pitt. Taylor Dearden's already made a big impression in the gone-too-soon MTV series Sweet/Vicious and the second season of American Vandal, but The Pitt just sent her star soaring in a wholly different way.The Pitt is undeniably (and deservedly) one of the most celebrated new shows of the year and Dearden's performance has proven to be an especially big standout among an ensemble full of aces. She plays Dr. Mel King, a second-year resident about to begin her very first day at Pittsburgh Trauma Medical Hospital's emergency room, aka, The Pitt. While there are nerves at the start of the shift, Mel's an extremely skilled doctor who excels under pressure and also has the emotional capacity to connect with patients in ways others can't.With the show on the cusp of what could be an extremely successful Emmy season, Dearden carved out some time on a day off from filming Season 2 to swing by the Collider Ladies Night studio and run through her experience playing Mel and adapting to The Pitt's one-of-a-kind filming schedule. We also took the time to zero in on a few key scenes from Season 1, one of which has become an especially beloved fan-favorite — the “Savage” scene. Hosted on Acast.

Welcome to another inspiring episode of Build a Better Agency! In this episode, host Drew McLellan sits down with high-performance coach and leadership expert Christina Langdon to explore what it truly means to scale your agency—not just in terms of size or revenue, but in mindset, vision, and team culture. Drawing on decades of leadership experience at organizations like Martha Stewart Living Omnimedia and Fast Company, Christina offers invaluable insights on unlocking growth and reimagining success for agency leaders and their teams. Throughout their conversation, Drew and Christina unpack the dangers of operating on “default mode,” the pitfalls that keep agencies stuck in status quo thinking, and how our brains—wired for survival rather than success—can hold us back from imagining extraordinary futures. Christina introduces practical strategies for reflection and growth, including her signature daily practice: reviewing what worked, what didn't, and what can be done differently. She explains how these habits, when shared individually and collectively, can spark new awareness and propel teams toward higher performance, deeper engagement, and lasting happiness at work. The episode also delves into tactical frameworks for agency owners looking to elevate their leadership teams, assess existing capabilities, and foster cultures of intentional learning. Christina shares actionable tips on co-creating extraordinary goals, updating job descriptions to match evolving strengths, and using tools like user manuals to deepen collaboration and understanding within teams. You'll also hear how to address common “dream killers,” manage stress by focusing on what's within your control, and get buy-in for big, bold changes—even from those who might be resistant to new ways of thinking.  If you're ready to move beyond incremental improvements and instead ignite genuine transformation within your agency, this episode is packed with real-world advice and motivational stories to get you started. Whether you want to grow in revenue, impact, retention, or simply reclaim your team's enthusiasm, Christina and Drew provide a roadmap for dreaming bigger—together.  A big thank you to our podcast's presenting sponsor, White Label IQ.
