The Giants can move past the Jaxson Dart controversy quickly if the locker room keeps frustrations internal, but the cost is proving this young team can handle pressure without letting every disagreement become a public problem.Follow on Spotify and leave a 5-star rating on Apple Podcasts if you enjoy no-BS Giants debate.Did the Giants actually move past the Jaxson Dart locker-room issue? The answer depends on whether the leaders who spoke up — Brian Burns, Kayvon Thibodeaux, and Jameis Winston — turn that meeting into a reset instead of another storyline.The episode starts with the reported Giants meeting where Jaxson Dart addressed teammates after introducing President Trump. Drew and Rob talk through whether this was just an awkward headline that needed to be handled internally, or whether it was the first real leadership test for Dart and the John Harbaugh-era locker room. The conversation also covers Abdul Carter missing the meeting for Eid al-Adha and why that should not become cheap blame if Dart and Carter already handled things privately.Is this story actually over, or just quieter?Andrew Thomas restructuring his contract becomes the next major Giants topic. The guys explain why the added cap space matters, why Arvell Reese's rookie deal still affects the real number, and why this move is more likely about injury flexibility and cutdown-day roster moves than a splashy Odell Beckham Jr. return.Did the Giants just create useful breathing room, or are fans reading too much into a basic cap move?The OTA conversation focuses on D.J. Reader, Dru Phillips, and Patrick Ricard returning to the field, while also keeping expectations realistic because spring practices without pads only reveal so much. The defensive line depth concern gets real after the Roy Robertson-Harris injury, Shelby Harris' absence, and the basic truth that NFL injuries are going to keep coming.J.C. Davis becomes the offensive line debate of the episode. Bret Bielema praised his ability to play all four guard and tackle spots, while Drew pushes back and says the tape looks more like guard. John Harbaugh's comments also point to a swing guard/tackle role, raising the question of whether Davis is a future left guard, a real utility lineman, or another Giants guard/tackle project that could become risky behind Andrew Thomas.The episode closes with one of the better Giants stories of the offseason: Tom Coughlin, Eli Manning, John Harbaugh, Shaun O'Hara, and Gotham FC going full Mario Kart for the Tom Coughlin Jay Fund Foundation. Coughlin as Mario, Eli as Luigi, Harbaugh as Yoshi, and Shaun O'Hara as Donkey Kong made for a fun visual, but the real story is the charity work for families facing childhood cancer.Merch: https://2giantgoofballs-shop.fourthwall.com/Support: https://buymeacoffee.com/2giantgoofballsAll episodes: https://2giantgoofballs.buzzsprout.com/Send us Fan MailSupport the show

Welcome to a classic episode of Casual Trek, featuring Matt Hardy!Matt's upcoming project can be found here: https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/kryptothera-a-hunter/kryptothera-a-hunters-taleWe've got our first guest star in today's episode as we get the nonstop machine of comics crowdfunding Matthew Hardy to join us in talking about the First Lady of Star Trek: Majel Barrett!Majel's been in so many episodes, hell, so many SERIES of Star Trek over the years, so there's a lot to work with here. We've got shockingly little Majel in the TOS episode that ostensibly is a spotlight focus on her. Then we're in to the wild world of Lwaxana Troi as she gets kidnapped by Ferengi in TNG and that version of the Ferengi are the absolute worst. Like Internet Guy worst. Finally we get a surprisingly nice pairing of Lwaxana and Odo stuck in a lift together as a weird life form from the Gamma Quadrant has got into the computers.TOS: What Are Little Girls Made of?TNG: Ménage a TroiDS9: The ForsakenTalking points include: Westworld (both flavours), Babylon 5, Only Murders in the Building, Righteous Gemstones, Adam X the X-Treme, Ahsoka, Classic Dr Who, FMV PC games, Charlie's back on his Lost bullshit, From, Amnesiac City, Two time GLAAD award winner Peter Allan David, The Matrix, Terminator, I Have No Mouth and I Must Scream, The UK Office amount of awkwardness, Shoggoths, Tiny Clangers, The Prisoner, Legion of Super-Heroes fashion, Mario Kart-based declarations of love, Vampire: The Masquerade, The Mos Eisley Cantina Band, Lucille Bluth, Lwaxana Troi going full Mrs Bennet, Picard giving it all Shakespeare, More Classic Dr Who, Lord of the Rings for the SNES, Gilmore Girls, Tamagochi, War of the Worlds. Oh, and occasionally Star Trek. A surprising amount of Star Trek this time…Casual Trek is by Charlie Etheridge-Nunn and Miles Reid-Lobatto, our guest star was Matt Hardy.Music by Alfred Etheridge-NunnCasual Trek is a part of the Nerd & Tie Networkhttps://ko-fi.com/casualtrek Miles' blog: http://www.mareidlobatto.wordpress.com Charlie's blog: http://www.fakedtales.com Pedant's Corner:Gap-wise, the gap between TOS finishing & TNG airing was 18 years, the gap between Enterprise finishing and Discovery airing was 13 years“Time is an illusion, lunchtime doubly so” is the actual quoteCharlie couldn't think of the word “camper van” when describing FromMemory Alpha's reference to Lwaxana Troi saying she ‘made love' to DaiMon Tog, has a link to an article on Oo-mox

(00:00) — Ear cleaning origin: A childhood earwax ritual lights the first spark for medicine.(01:25) — Writer first, then premed: Entering college for writing before finding patient care through EMT work.(02:10) — EMT on campus: Deescalation, student calls, and heavy mental health moments.(03:27) — Suicide hotline: Human-to-human conversations that clarified her desire to be a physician.(04:10) — Medicine vs therapy: Drawn to anatomy and physiology while honoring psych's importance.(05:45) — Apocalypse-proof skills: Why medicine felt enduring through pandemics, borders, and war.(07:32) — Query-letter essay: How a creative application and workshop hustle shaped her identity.(08:55) — Premed pressure: Cutting hobbies, feeling locked out of creativity, and the regret that followed.(11:31) — The rat race and AMCAS: Hours, comparison culture, and resisting the 15-activity myth.(15:04) — Rest as training: Reframing hobbies as recovery to prevent burnout and learn better.(15:59) — What stood out: Interviews focused on her writing more than her activity count.(18:19) — Reapplying after COVID: Canceled MCAT, delayed app, and an external nudge to pause.(20:01) — Perspective shift: Time off, returning to writing, and no longer feeling behind.(23:11) — Ready the second time: Growth, humility, and being prepared to start medicine.(24:42) — First acceptance: Relief, joy, and finally buying the book she'd saved for that day.(26:02) — Personal statement redo: From listing achievements to writing about who she is.(27:06) — Med school + novels: Supportive team, deadlines, and writing as catharsis.(28:43) — Step 2 vs deadlines: Balancing dedicated study with book edits on a tight schedule.(30:10) — Dark fiction and stakes: Embracing perimortem themes and high-impact care.(32:24) — Pathology curiosity: Autopsies, TV inspirations, and creative crossover.(33:09) — Can students work?: Policy gray areas and being featured regardless.(33:47) — Zero-sum myth: Why gym, games, and hobbies can make you a better learner.(36:24) — Guilt and games: Mario Kart, streaming, and naming the pressure to always study.(37:13) — Permission to be human: Keep your passions—people, not checklists, become doctors.Vanessa's path to medicine started with a childhood ear-cleaning ritual and grew through college EMT shifts and suicide hotline work that centered real human connection. In this conversation, she and Dr. Gray unpack the premed rat race—the pressure to pack 15 activities, the guilt of cutting hobbies, and the lie that every minute not studying sets you back. Vanessa candidly shares applying twice, including a COVID-canceled MCAT that delayed her first cycle, the external nudge to pause, and the growth and humility that made her ultimately ready to be accepted. She explains how interviews gravitated to her writing, why her second personal statement focused on who she is rather than everything she did, and how she now balances med school with novel deadlines—treating writing as both catharsis and a job, while preparing for Step 2. Along the way: apocalypse-proof humor, a reframe of rest as part of training, and a clear message to premeds and medical students alike—keep the passions that make you human. Because people, not checklists, become doctors.What You'll Learn:- How campus EMT and suicide hotline roles shaped a patient-first “why medicine”- What changed between a late, COVID-impacted first cycle and a successful reapplication- Why focusing your personal statement on who you are can resonate more than listing activities- Practical ways to protect hobbies in premed and med school without burning out- How interviews may lean into your authentic passions—even more than your hours

In this week's catch-up, Skot, Tyler, & econoalchemist sit down with each other after a whirlwind couple of weeks and get the full down low from the Vegas conference—panels, debates, demos, and a surprise $100,000 grant win. They dive into the spirited on-stage debate over open source mining, why chip closed-ness doesn't invalidate open source hardware, and how community-driven, transparent tooling remains our North Star. Highlights include Schnitzel's battery-powered “DoomAxe” portable miner (yes, it plays Doom), rapid-fire integrations with Proto Fleet, and a Mario Kart tournament that filled a 3,000,000-sat prize pot. They also share details on winning MARA Foundation's community vote and how the funds will extend runway for the four core open-source pillars: Ember One Hashboard, Mujina firmware, Libre Board control board, and HydraPool—plus the crucial work of storytelling, docs, and community building around them.256 Foundation unveils the revamped 256foundation.org website and a self-hosted Discourse forum for discoverable, scam-resistant support and collaboration (forum.256foundation.org), along with Mujina dev calls to channel contributor energy productively. Then they preview Telehash #4 in Austin—hashrate donors, Wrigley's new Block Party event for pre-buying solo hash, and fresh “loyalty” gamification on the HashDash (dash.256f.org). The hosts cap it off with home-mining lore, solo-block luck stories, and a nod to running your own node. No pod next week during TEMS, but they'll be live for Telehash #4 and back on the 27th.

Bienvenue dans RetroGame+, l'épisode de rattrapage de NewGame+ qui revient sur d'anciens épisodes... en compagnie de ceux qui n'étaient pas encore là quand ils ont été enregistrés. Ce soir, Ace Bunny anime, Hkr et Brad jouent les invités de leur propre passé. Les 5 sujets du soir : 1. Consoles portables - retour sur l'épisode 5, saison 1 (déc. 2022) L'avenir des consoles portables était incertain en 2022 : Steam Deck tout juste lancé, marché de l'émulation naissant. En 2026, la situation a radicalement changé. L'Odin 3 qui atomise un Steam Deck et équivaut à un Mac M2. GameHub qui fait tourner des jeux PC sur Android. GTA V à 60fps sur mobile. La Switch 2 et ses portages bluffants, FF7 Rebirth en tête. Brad, team émulation iPhone et RetroArch en mode Game Boy GBA dans le train. Hkr, sceptique sur l'uniformisation des catalogues, mais converti à la Game Boy homebrew et à la PS Vita qu'il a rachetée récemment. La Playdate comme seule vraie console portable originale de ces cinq dernières années. Et la vraie question : depuis la 3DS, y a-t-il encore des jeux pensés pour le portable, ou juste des portages ? 2. Eternal Darkness : Sanity's Requiem - retour sur l'épisode 10, saison 1 (mai 2023) Le joker de Pascal. Le jeu GameCube de Silicon Knights (studio canadien aujourd'hui disparu après une bataille judiciaire retentissante contre Epic), qu'Hkr attendait depuis son annonce sur N64 et qu'il a finalement fait avant d'écouter l'épisode. Son verdict : une expérience inédite, lovecraftienne, avec des époques qui se superposent (Charlemagne, la Première Guerre Mondiale, Rome antique), un système de santé mentale qui brise le quatrième mur de façon géniale, et une fin un poil trop longue. Un jeu unitaire, sans suite, sans équivalent, qui n'a pas vieilli parce qu'il n'a jamais eu de point de comparaison — et qui en 2026, coincé entre RE9 et Silent Hill F, reste le plus intéressant des trois. 3. Rétrospective Mario Kart - retour sur l'épisode 18, saison 2 (déc. 2023) L'épisode du retour d'Ace Bunny après son hiatus, qui repartait en hiatus deux épisodes plus tard. À l'époque, Mario Kart World n'existait pas et le trio avait imaginé ce que serait le prochain opus. Ace voulait un Double Dash 2. Perdu ! Débat en règle sur la saga : le 64 qui a tout fondé, le Super Circuit GBA sous-estimé, le DS qui déchire, le Wii et son gameplay trop assisté, le 7 qui est "le Mario Kart le plus lambda du monde", le 8 Deluxe et ses DLC qui ajoutent des capitales mondiales et des circuits rétro améliorés avec une OST jouée par un vrai groupe et des solos de guitare. Et Mario Kart World : un parti pris assumé, complémentaire du 8 Deluxe plutôt que remplaçant, qui divise mais qu'on ne peut pas accuser de timidité. 4. Physique vs. dématérialisé - retour sur l'épisode 22, saison 2 (avr. 2024) L'épisode enregistré avec Blaireau et Guigro, dans un contexte de shitstorm Sony autour des DRM. Brad : historiquement physique, converti au démat Steam pour son interopérabilité totale, Steam Deck, Odin 3, Mac, Steam Machine... La bibliothèque Steam construite depuis 17 ans qui suit partout, sur n'importe quelle machine. Acheter sur Switch uniquement pour les IP Nintendo, en physique, pour les revendre ou les prêter. Ne jamais acheter un jeu à plein tarif, attendre les -30% minimum. Hkr : ni physique ni démat, mais coincé entre les deux. Le physique actuel n'est qu'une licence pour télécharger un jeu de 160 Go. Le démat console risque de disparaître avec le store. Steam l'attire mais il ne lance pas les jeux. Il préfère acheter en physique une Xbox One d'occasion pas cher pour jouer aux AA qu'il trouve souvent moins cher que Steam en solde. Skull & Bones à 3€. Prince of Persia: The Lost Crown à 20€. Le problème fondamental : la fragmentation des stores (Nintendo, Sony, Xbox, Steam, GOG, Epic) qui rend toute bibliothèque unifiée impossible. 5. Nintendo 64 - retour sur l'épisode 23, saison 2 Le joker de Pedro. Hkr et la N64 : achetée à Noël dans l'année de sa sortie, seule console achetée aussi tôt dans sa vie. Complement parfait d'un Pentium 233 avec 3DFX Voodoo 2. La promesse du multijoueur à 4 avec les potes : Mario Kart 64, GoldenEye, Mario 64, Pilot Wings. Brad et la N64 : une console de cœur, une décennie de souvenirs. F-Zero X vs F-Zero GX, les débats sur l'OST, le gameplay à 60fps. Et la conclusion partagée qui clôt l'épisode : "Vive la 64" Intervenants : Ace Bunny, HKR, BradMontage et mixage : Ace_BunnyTechnique, diffusion et hébergement : Mugen_Pascal

Send us Fan MailThe Super Mario Bros Movie is the kind of film that can make you feel eight years old again and also make you ask, “Wait, is that all it wanted to be?” We jump into our full review with the stuff that matters to longtime Nintendo fans: the decision to start Mario and Luigi in Brooklyn, the joy of seeing the Mushroom Kingdom in crisp modern animation, and the constant stream of references that try to trigger that old-school Mario magic.We get specific about what works and what doesn't. Jack Black's Bowser is an easy highlight, especially once “Peaches” enters the chat, and we talk about why that moment feels more memorable than a lot of the movie's dialogue. We also dig into voice casting and character choices, from Charlie Day's Luigi energy to the debate around Chris Pratt's Mario and whether Seth Rogen's Donkey Kong pulls you out of the world. Along the way, we nerd out about Luigi's Mansion potential, the Mario Kart sequence, and the film's funniest curveball character.Then we go bigger: what should a great video game adaptation aim for in 2026 and beyond? We compare Illumination's kid-forward style to the DreamWorks approach, with Shrek as the measuring stick for an animated movie that truly serves adults and kids at the same time. If you've been searching for a clear Super Mario Bros Movie podcast review, a take on Nintendo lore, or a thoughtful debate about nostalgia versus storytelling, you'll fit right in.Subscribe for more geek culture deep dives, share this with the friend who still knows every Mario sound effect, and leave us a five-star review if you want to support the show.

“Mario Kart” en “voetballen met een vierkante bal” — zo omschreven Max Verstappen en voormalig Red Bull-adviseur Helmut Marko de nieuwe auto's en regels in de Formule 1. Ook vanuit andere teams waren kritische geluiden te horen. Sportjournalist Jaap de Groot vertelt dat in de afgelopen weken door de coureurs veel druk is uitgevoerd op de FIA om de reglementen aan te passen. Dit weekend wordt, na een pauze van vijf weken, de strijd om de wereldtitel hervat met de Miami Grand Prix.

No RTG this week, but I dug up my Mario Kart World review from last summer and slapped it up on the free feeds to give you something to listen to instead of your coworkers or family.

Together, they blend fatherhood, fandom, and real-world experience into a conversation that's equal parts entertaining and practical. The episode kicks off with the Question of the Week: “What game provides the best couch co-op experience?” From nostalgic classics to modern favorites, Joe and Josh celebrate the magic of gaming together. Titles like Halo, Mario Kart, and Super Smash Bros. take center stage as they explore what makes local multiplayer so special—shared laughter, friendly competition, and unforgettable moments with friends and family. With the roll of the dice, the show jumps into the “How Do I…?” segment, tackling a topic every retro gamer should care about: how to avoid getting scammed when buying retro video games. Joe and Josh break down practical tips for spotting counterfeit cartridges, recognizing suspicious deals, and making smart purchasing decisions so you don't overpay or end up with a fake. It's must-know advice for collectors and casual gamers alike. Next up is the “What Are You Nerding Out About?” segment, where Josh shares his excitement about playing Pokémon Pokopia with his kids—highlighting the joy of sharing gaming across generations. He also dives into his love for Magic: The Gathering, a timeless strategy game that continues to captivate players worldwide. Meanwhile, Joe brings anime into the mix, talking about his early impressions of Daemons of the Shadow Realm and his excitement for its future, especially given its connection to the creator of Fullmetal Alchemist. Of course, no Wise_N_Nerdy episode would be complete without a dose of humor, and the dice deliver a horde of Bad Dad Jokes that are as groan-worthy as they are hilarious—perfectly capturing the chaotic charm fans have come to love. The laughter gives way to a more personal moment in the “Daddy, Tell Me A Story” segment, where Josh shares his journey of creating educational YouTube content that's both informative and entertaining. It's an inspiring look at the challenges and rewards of teaching through creativity while keeping an audience engaged. Finally, the episode wraps with the “Parliament of Papas” segment, where Joe and Josh react to a wild Reddit story about someone secretly trying to sell off their family's video game collection because it was taking up too much space. The discussion dives into themes of communication, shared ownership, and respecting the value—both sentimental and financial—of a gaming collection. This episode is a perfect blend of gaming nostalgia, parenting insight, and nerd culture appreciation. Whether you're here for the co-op memories, the practical advice, or the laughs, there's something for everyone. So grab a controller, join the conversation, and don't forget to Find your FAMdom.

Als Micha im November letztens Jahres kurz Kirby Air Riders eingelegt hat, hat er offen gestanden nichts verstanden. Kurz vor der Weihnachtszeit waren die Akkus einfach zu leer, um tiefer in die doch erstaunlich tiefen Mechaniken des 2-Button-Arcade-Racers einzusteigen.Aber jetzt zu Ostern hat er sich das Spiel noch einmal vorgenommen, und siehe da: Es zündet! Um nachträglich den Reiz des ungewöhnlichen Rennspiels zu ergründen, hat sich Micha den Björn (aka SpeckObst) ins Gespräch geholt. Dieser kennt sich nicht nur mit dem GameCube-Original gut aus, sondern auch mit dem Schaffens des Designers dahinter: Masahiro Sakurai. Unter seiner Regie gibt es rasante Air-Ride-Rennen, erweiterte City-Trial-Arenen und Boost-Charges.Die Mechaniken dabei: Energie sammeln beim Driften, Driften mit Turbo und Rivalen inhalieren für Wirbelangriffe oder Power-Ups. Micha und Björn flippen ein bisschen aus bei den neuen Rennmaschinen, Quick-Spins, Glide-Boosts und Multiplayer-Chaos mit Dedede & Meta Knight - purer Adrenalin-Kick, der Mario Kart Konkurrenz macht, obwohl es sehr niedlich aussieht. Erfahrt im Cast, warum Kirby Air Riders nicht zu unterschätzen ist! Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

La Fórmula 1 atraviesa un momento delicado. El Gran Premio de Japón, tercera prueba del Campeonato, ha vuelto a poner de manifiesto una desconexión creciente entre lo que ocurre en pista y lo que el espectador, e incluso los propios protagonistas, son capaces de interpretar. A ver qué nos pueden aclarar en los programas de esta semana del Podcast Técnica Fórmula 1. Suzuka evidencia un problema de fondo. Suzuka ofreció una carrera con movimiento, adelantamientos y cambios de posición. Sobre el papel, todo lo que se le puede pedir a una competición. Pero la sensación general tras la bandera a cuadros fue muy distinta: incertidumbre, dudas y una pregunta cada vez más recurrente… ¿qué estamos viendo exactamente? El problema radica en la naturaleza de la actual reglamentación. La gestión energética, el uso de la batería y los sistemas híbridos han adquirido tal protagonismo que han diluido el peso del pilotaje puro. Hoy, un adelantamiento puede depender más de un pico de energía disponible que de una maniobra al límite. Y, ¿Qué opinan los pilotos? Las propias declaraciones de los pilotos reflejan esta realidad. La comparación de Leclerc con las “setas” de Mario Kart no es casual. Tampoco lo son los comentarios en el corralito o la reflexión de Carlos Sainz, que llegó a definir algunos adelantamientos como simples “rebasamientos de autopista”. Este contexto genera una consecuencia directa: la pérdida de referencia. Ya no es fácil identificar quién está pilotando mejor, quién tiene más ritmo o quién está gestionando mejor la carrera. Todo queda condicionado por variables técnicas poco visibles para el espectador. Lo más interesante de la carrera. La carrera en sí dejó varios puntos de interés. La salida fue especialmente movida, con Piastri tomando el liderato y varios cambios de posición en el grupo delantero. Antonelli, finalmente ganador, protagonizó adelantamientos destacados en las primeras vueltas, mientras que Russell mostraba un rendimiento irregular difícil de explicar. Las paradas en boxes y, especialmente, el coche de seguridad tras el accidente de Oliver Bearman en la vuelta 22, marcaron el desarrollo estratégico de la prueba. Algunos equipos salieron claramente beneficiados, en una carrera donde la suerte volvió a jugar un papel relevante. Lo que nos deja claro el accidente de Bearman. Pero más allá del resultado, el accidente de Bearman abre un debate mucho más serio: la diferencia de velocidad entre monoplazas, derivada de la gestión energética, provocó una situación de riesgo evidente. No es solo una cuestión de espectáculo, es un problema de seguridad que la categoría no puede ignorar. En cuanto al rendimiento de los equipos, Mercedes se confirmó como la referencia en ritmo, seguido de McLaren y Ferrari. Sin embargo, Red Bull continúa mostrando debilidades, mientras que Aston Martin sigue sin encontrar soluciones a sus problemas técnicos. La zona media dejó algunas sorpresas, como el sólido séptimo puesto de Gasly por delante de Verstappen, reflejando un campeonato más abierto… aunque no necesariamente más comprensible (ni competitivo). Lo que sí entendemos. En paralelo, la IndyCar ofrecía en Barber una carrera estratégica pero clara en su desarrollo. Álex Palou se llevó la victoria mostrando un dominio reconocible, en una categoría donde el rendimiento sigue siendo más fácil de interpretar. Ese contraste es, probablemente, el mayor problema de la Fórmula 1 actual. Con un parón de cinco semanas por delante, la categoría tiene margen para reaccionar. Pero la cuestión ya no es solo mejorar el espectáculo. Es recuperar la esencia competitiva, devolver el protagonismo al piloto y, sobre todo, hacer que lo que ocurre en pista vuelva a ser comprensible.

Jeff survived the family plague (barely), and this week we're recording live — poems and all. This episode kicks off with a live poem creation featuring the Steam Deck and Skate 3. From there, Jeff shares how the Steam Deck was his lifeline while sick on the couch: full Steam library plus PS5 streaming, all from under the blankets. We compare it to the consoles that shaped our lives — the Game Boy SP, the PSP, and why portability matters more than ever for gaming dads. Then we dig into Pokémon Pocketopia on the Switch 2. Jeff's family is all-in and Trevor might not be far behind. We break down what it is (Minecraft meets Pokémon in a post-apocalyptic world), the Switch 2's GameShare feature that lets you play co-op from a Switch 1, and whether this could be the next Animal Crossing for families. Jeff's kid discovered Skate 3 on Game Pass and asked dad for help beating a challenge. 100+ hours of muscle memory kicked in — double kickflips, dark slides, 920s. The kid walked out of the room. Trevor confesses he may have traumatized his own kids at Mario Kart and GoldenEye beyond recovery. We also talk about the "I didn't marry a loser" social media trend — wives pushing back on the incompetent dad stereotype — and what it means that this generation of dads has arrived. Millennial dads are spending three times more quality time with their kids than previous generations. It hit us right in the feels. Finally, it's the debut of New Dad Gaming Questions! A listener sent in a study from 2averagegamers.com: what 10,000 Reddit comments reveal about the adult gaming backlog. The median gamer sits on 100–150 unplayed games, plays 8–10 hours a week, and 75% feel genuinely guilty about it. Adults who can finally afford all the games they want but lack the time to play them. Sound familiar? Welcome to New Dad Gaming.

Welcome to the Autosport F1 Chinese GP Review! Host Kevin Turner and Jake Boxall-Legge dive into the action-packed second Grand Prix of F1's new era in China. From historic maiden victories to fiery debates over the new regulations, there is plenty to unpack from the Shanghai circuit. We also hear directly from the paddock with Stuart Codling's on-the-ground insights. The team also discussed Lewis Hamilton's first podium in red following a thrilling battle with Charles Leclerc, and Max Verstappen's second DNF of the year, which fuelled his frustration with the new "Mario Kart" style regulations. They break down the phenomenon of "super clipping" alongside the wider debate around F1's new energy management rules, and examine McLaren's disastrous weekend, where neither car made the start due to electrical issues.   00:00 - Introduction to the Chinese GP results and driver performances 01:17 - Summary of top finishers and notable incidents 02:01 - Stuart Coddling reports from the paddock in China 06:28 – Antonelli's Debut Win 12:22 - Hamilton vs. Leclerc Fight! 17:24 - Max Verstappen's reliability issues and demotivation factors 20:27 - Liam Lawson's impressive weekend and circuit variability 21:21 - FIA's review of energy management rules and technical updates 24:20 - Fans' perceptions: artificiality vs. realistic racing 27:15 - Explanation of super clipping and energy deployment regulations 32:22 - McLaren's on-track struggles and software issues 36:16 - The race calendar's impact on team development and strategic pauses 39:32 - Current Drivers' Championship standings and future predictions Learn more about your ad choices.

ON TODAYS PROGRAM…     CONGRATULATIONS TO KIMI FOR POLE AND THE WIN! MERCEDES CLEARLY AHEAD OF THE PACK! WITH FERRARI RIGHT BEHIND FERNANDO SEES THE END OF RACING WITH DRIVING SLOW IN THE CORNERS TO HARVEST KILOWATTS… LAWRENCE STROLL CLOSE TO THE BRAKING POINT COULD SELL ASTON MARTIN TO BYD! UNLIKE MAX…LCH LOVES THE NEW CARS! AND….   THIS WEEK'S NASIR HAMEED CORNER WE HAVE: ARVID LINBLAD AND UGO UGOCHUKWU….ENJOY! Kimi Antonelli became the second youngest F1 winner of all time, beating Mercedes team-mate George Russell into second place in Shanghai, while Lewis Hamilton claimed his first ever podium for Ferrari. But it was another chaotic, controversial grand prix under these new 2026 regulations. Neither McLaren made it to the grid, world champion Lando Norris and team-mate Oscar Piastri both suffering from unspecified technical gremlins. After his crash on the formation lap in Melbourne last weekend, Piastri becomes the first driver since team founder Bruce McLaren back in 1969 to fail to start successive races. But they were hardly alone. Williams' Alex Albon and Audi's Gabriel Bortoleto also failed to start, while Red Bull's four-time world champion Max Verstappen was one of three more drivers who failed to finish.   Aston Martin's Fernando Alonso had to retire due to excessive vibrations from his power unit – the same vibrations he was worried might lead to “permanent nerve damage” in Australia. The controversial new 50–50 hybrid power units for this season, combined with active aerodynamics, have completely split fans and drivers. Some are enjoying the lack of reliability and hugely increased overtaking, with drivers able to deploy “boost” and “overtake” modes. Others, notably four-time champion Max Verstappen, decry the action as “artificial”, comparing this new era to computer games such as Mario Kart. You certainly cannot accuse these new rules of failing to produce action. China, the second race of the season, was meant to herald a return to something more “normal” after an extraordinary120 overtakes at the season opener in Australia last weekend. But it was just the same. A wild start, in which the fast-starting Ferraris surged to the front from the second row. A wacky first stint, in which the Ferraris and Mercedes battled for supremacy. And then – after a safety car came out on lap 10 when Aston Martin's Lance Stroll retired – Mercedes gradually pulling clear. Antonelli, 19, eventually won by 5.5sec ahead of Russell to become the first Italian winner of a Formula One race for 20 years, since Giancarlo Fisichella at Sepang in 2006, and the second youngest grand prix winner of all time behind Verstappen, while Hamilton was another 19.7sec back, having emerged victorious from a furious tussle with team-mate Charles Leclerc in which they repeatedly swapped positions and went wheel to wheel. Leclerc said it was “fun” while Hamilton called it “one of most enjoyable races” he has ever had. Fans will be split on that sentiment. Briton Oliver Bearman was an impressive fifth for Haas, just shy of his best ever finish, fourth place in Mexico last year. Kimi Antonelli... What an incredible day! This win is a fulfilment of one of the dreams I've had ever since I first drove a go-kart. I want to say thank you to my amazing family and the incredible team at both Lauda Drive and Morgan Drive. I couldn't have done this without any of them, and it means so much to take my first victory in F1. It was a very special moment for all of us. The race itself wasn't easy. I lost a position at the start and had to fight back to get ahead. We then had to manage the Safety Car restart which wasn't easy on the Hard compound. It was difficult to get the tyres working but fortunately we were able to before we were under threat from those behind. This has been a great way to close the first double-header of the season but there is lots of work ahead. We aren't taking anything for granted and will make sure we work hard ahead of Japan and arrive in Suzuka in the strongest position we can. George Russell... Firstly, huge congratulations to Kimi on his first victory in F1. He drove a great race, and it was brilliant to be up there on the podium with him. I am sure it is a moment he will never forget and to do it with the team scoring a 1-2 is fantastic. My own race was not straightforward. I lost positions both at the start and then at the Safety Car restart as we struggled to switch the Hard tyres on. The Ferraris were quick, particularly in the early stages, and we had to get back past them twice. They were fast in all the right places and that made our job a lot more difficult. Happily, we were able to do it each time, but it cost us the chance to fight for the win. It has been a great way to start the season, and we are definitely the team to beat at the moment. We have been put under a lot of pressure at these first two races, and we need to keep pushing hard. The package is strong though so I'm looking forward to heading to the next race in Japan. Kirkwood Outduels Champ Palou To Win Arlington, Take Series Lead    ARLINGTON, Texas (Sunday, March 15, 2026) – It's been a long time since a rival driver made Alex Palou blink, but Kyle Kirkwood achieved that rare feat to win the inaugural Java House Grand Prix at Arlington on Sunday. Kirkwood took the NTT INDYCAR SERIES championship lead and earned his first victory of the season despite a sluggish final pit stop by his Andretti Global crew, driving his No. 27 JM Bullion/Gold.com Honda to victory under caution over the No. 10 DHL Chip Ganassi Racing Honda of four-time series champion Palou, who has won the title the last three seasons. SEE: Race Results “That was so incredible,” Kirkwood said. “Man, did we have some pace. This JM Bullion Honda, Andretti, all these guys right here, they gave me the tools today. It's because of this race car we won today, because of teamwork. “One-three-four (finish) for Andretti; we're just so stacked here. I'm so stoked.” Andretti Global placed three drivers into the top four at the finish of the 70-lap street-circuit race around AT&T Stadium, home of the Dallas Cowboys, and Globe Life Field, home of the Texas Rangers. Will Power placed third in the No. 26 TWG AI Honda for his first podium finish at his new team after 16 full-time seasons at Team Penske. Marcus Ericsson, who earned his first career pole Saturday, finished fourth in the No. 28 InPwr Honda. Pato O'Ward rounded out the top five finishers in the No. 5 Arrow McLaren Chevrolet, the highest-placing Chevrolet-powered driver on the 14-turn, 2.73-mile circuit. “This Andretti Honda camp is fricking strong on street courses,” O'Ward said. “We've got a lot of work to do if we want to start winning races on outright pace against them.” Pure pace helped Kirkwood, who started seventh and overcome a tepid final pit stop to overhaul Palou down the stretch. Palou and Kirkwood were running first and second, respectively, when both made their final stops on the preferred three-stop strategy on Lap 49. The Chip Ganassi Racing crew completed Palou's stop in 7.7 seconds, while Kirkwood's service took 9.5 seconds due to a slow change of the right rear wheel. When both drivers returned to full steam on their out lap, Palou led Kirkwood by 2.2 seconds. But Kirkwood used the speed that helped him lead the pre-qualifying practice Saturday, pulling to within .323 of a second of Palou at the start of Lap 55, with both drivers on the more durable Firestone Firehawk tires in a straight-up duel for the win. Kirkwood didn't waste any time flexing muscle, diving under Palou from a long distance in Turn 13 near the end of Lap 55 and making the daring pass stick for the lead. “He did an awesome pass; hats off to him,” Palou said. “It was super clean, and it was pretty impressive. We'll get them in a couple weeks.” Kirkwood then started to pull away, building a five-second lead by Lap 66. Then that margin evaporated when ECR driver Christian Rasmussen nosed his No. 21 Java House Chevrolet into the tire barrier at pit exit on Lap 68, triggering the first full-course yellow of the race. That bunched the field for a one-lap dash to the checkered flag. Kirkwood pulled away on the restart and was able to exhale early in the final lap when the second and final full-course yellow flew due to a collision between the No. 18 BMax Honda of Dale Coyne Racing's Romain Grosjean and the No. 6 Arrow McLaren Chevrolet of Nolan Siegel deep in the field. “Not today,” Palou said when asked if he thought he could have caught Kirkwood on the final lap. “I was pushing really hard on the first and second stint, and I could see that the 27 (Kirkwood) and the 12 (Power) were a little bit faster than us. I was like, ‘Oh, man, it's going to be quite hard.'” Kirkwood then cruised around the circuit one last time under yellow to cheers from the capacity crowd at this event, a joint venture between Penske Entertainment, the Dallas Cowboys and REV Entertainment, the official events partner of the Texas Rangers. He leads the standings by 26 points over second-place Palou after three of 18 races. “It's only race number three, so I'm not looking at the championship,” Kirkwood said. “But it is nice to say it's the first time I've ever led the championship in the INDYCAR SERIES.” The taut nature of the race, with its varying strategies about how often to stop for tires, resulted in terrific parity up front. Kirkwood, Palou and Power each led 16 laps to tie for the race high, with Ericsson fourth with 15 laps led. Caio Collet was the top-finishing rookie, 12th in the No. 4 Combitrans Amazonia Chevrolet fielded by AJ Foyt Racing. Phoenix winner Josef Newgarden, who entered this event in the series lead, fell to third after finishing 15th in the No. 2 PPG Team Penske Chevrolet. After three consecutive race weekends to open the season, the NTT INDYCAR SERIES will get a short break before resuming with the Children's of Alabama Indy Grand Prix powered by AmFirst on March 27-29 at Barber Motorsports Park in Birmingham, Alabama.
