Um halb zwölf nach einer Hochzeit ins Bett, um drei Uhr nachts wieder wach: Marv liefert sich eine handfeste Fehde mit einem Rauchmelder, die über Waschbecken, Terrasse und einen erschrockenen Nachbarskater eskaliert.

Talking about the Seth Ring LitRPG series Nova Terra/Tower.

Las campañas adelantadas se han convertido en una constante que no solo desafía la legalidad, sino que erosiona la confianza de la ciudadanía en el sistema democrático mexicano. Ante un panorama donde el gasto proyectado para 2027 asciende a la cifra récord de 10 mil 842 millones de pesos, la Dra. María Marván, ex consejera del IFE e investigadora de la UNAM, lanzó una dura advertencia sobre el cinismo político que permea el actual proceso electoral.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Just a little bit of work venting.

The Skip Heard Around the Podcasting World - Spotify's "Skip Forward" fallout The big story of the week: Spotify's new ad-skipping option for premium users, first flagged by James Cridland (PodNews) and picked up by Elsie Escobar and Rob Walch on In and Around Podcasting. Marv unpacks why it's such a headache for ad-supported podcasters, traces it back to Spotify's 2018 "Active Media" experiment in Australia, and previews Neil Veglio's upcoming Podmastery episode (Monday 10th August) on how creators might respond — including making shows "less skippable."Sodajerker Songwriting Lab — quick announcement A special one-day workshop from Bri and Si of Sodajerker on Songwriting, Friday 4th September at the Royal Birmingham Conservatoire, with songwriters Sacha Skarbek and Ben Parker. Small groups, hands-on writing, open to songwriters of any level. Details and booking: sodajerker.com/labMeta's $942 million New Mexico ruling A New Mexico judge has ordered Meta to pay $567 million on top of an earlier $375 million penalty, bringing the total to $942 million over harm to children and teens on Facebook and Instagram. The ruling also mandates stronger age verification, safety education, and deletion of under-13 user data. Marv connects this to the wider question of platform design and engagement, and what it might mean for podcasters who rely on social media for discoverability.Musical tangent: Yazoo, Alison Moyet, and Prefab Sprout Prompted by a Stephanie Fuccio Substack post about the band Yazoo (Yaz in the US) and singer Alison Moyet ("Alf"), Marv goes down a musical trivia rabbit hole — including a nod to Paddy McAloon of Prefab Sprout, whose reported perfectionism has allegedly kept several albums unreleased.Around the podcasting SubstacksFrank Racioppi on the new International Advisory Board for Eurowaves, and a review of fiction podcast American AfterlifeNeil Veglio (Podmastery) on letting go of the "consistency is key" mythStephanie Fuccio on perfectionism vs. creating, and on how a podcast's real direction often only becomes clear in hindsightRob Walch explaining the AMP Accords and the IAB's role — guidelines, not commandmentsJohn McDermott's newsletter and listening round-upTony Doe's Into the Podverse — new podcast launches, PodGround funding news, and Elsie Escobar's 20 years in podcastingA shared surprise that no black woman appears on Forbes' highest-earning podcasters listPaul D Brazil's Substack piece on actors who've had songs named after themHousekeeping An apology for a missed Wednesday episode due to a tricky multi-part edit, plus thanks to sponsor RSS.com.After the sign-off A trailer for Keep the Flame Alive, the Olympics and Paralympics podcast.

Our friends Marv and Annie were with us at a convention in Chicago. They're from Denver; I was in my hometown. Annie's doctor had let her make the trip to Chicago even though she was eight months pregnant. Well, we had a reception our first night at the convention downtown. I jokingly told her, “Hey, if the baby decides to come tonight, just call our room. This is my city, girl. I'll take care of everything!” Yeah, well, it didn't turn out to be a joke. The call came in the middle of the night, and minutes later we had a lady in hard labor in my back seat. Oh, my goodness! I thought we'd have time to get out to our obstetrician in the suburbs. Not a chance! I had no idea where downtown hospitals were. I never needed one before. Oh, boy! I finally found one - a veterans' hospital. No maternity ward! Well, eventually I found a hospital with great facilities - just in time. Today we all laugh about it, but it's certainly not one of my proudest moments. I'm Ron Hutchcraft and I want to have A Word With You today about “Gospel Without Detours.” I almost messed up the beginning of a new life - all because I went in the wrong direction. That's easy to do with what the Bible calls being “born again.” If you belong to Jesus, I've got to believe you know folks who don't, and that you want them to be in heaven with you. That can only happen if they're born into God's family by putting their trust in Jesus Christ and what He did on the cross for them. But that rebirth can be aborted if you go the wrong direction in sharing Christ with someone. See, there's a detour on the road to Jesus and you've got to avoid that detour at all costs. I call it the trap - one that is so easy to fall into when you're having a spiritual conversation. When Jesus was talking with the Samaritan woman at the well, she tried to deflect Jesus' claim on her life by using the trap. In John 4, beginning with verse 20, she tries to get Jesus to start down that deadly detour. Here's what it is - talking religion. She said, “Our fathers worshiped on this mountain, but you Jews claim that the place where we must worship is in Jerusalem.” In other words, “Jesus, the issue is we have different religions. Yours is good for you; mine is good for me.” Sound familiar? Jesus won't go there. In verse 24, He says, “God is a spirit, and His worshipers must worship in spirit and in truth.” In other words, “This isn't about what religion you are, Ma'am. It's about your relationship with God.” Then Jesus introduces Himself as the looked-for Messiah. Jesus makes Himself the issue, and He still is today. There's just too much at stake for you to allow yourself to fall into the trap of talking religion with someone who needs Jesus. The issue really has nothing to do with religion. It's whether or not you've had your sins forgiven so you can have a relationship with God. It's really all about Jesus and all about his cross. Paul said that in 1 Corinthians 2:2 when he said, “I resolved to know nothing while I was with you except Jesus Christ and Him crucified.” It's not about your religion. It's not about your religious rules. It's not about your rituals. It's not about Christianity. It's not about Christians. It's not about attacking their lifestyle. It's all about Jesus. So stick to Jesus. Keep bringing it back to Jesus; bring them back to His cross. Your mission is clear. To take a person that you care about by the hand and lead them up Skull Hill to the foot of an old rugged cross, and point to the Son of God dying for them, and say, “Man, this is how much He loves you.” Any other direction is the wrong direction - one that leads away from the Jesus that they need. So, take them straight to Jesus.

On the Tip of My Tongue: Jonathan Hirons on Aphasia, Advocacy, and PodcastingThis episode, Marv sits down with Jonathan Hirons, host of the podcast On the Tip of My Tongue, to talk about aphasia — a communication disorder that affects language but not intelligence or memory — and how it shaped his life and work.Jonathan shares the story of the sudden stroke that left him with aphasia, the speech and language therapy that followed, and the vital role his wife played early on using flashcards to help rebuild his vocabulary. He and Marv discuss why aphasia remains so poorly understood despite affecting more people than Parkinson's disease, and why groups and community support make such a difference for people relearning to communicate.The conversation also traces how Jonathan's aphasia documentary evolved into a podcast, why he brought on co-host Rob Edwards to handle scripted segments, and how the show balances lived experience with expert insight. They wrap up comparing notes on production workflows, episode artwork, and the "teaser hook" technique both shows use to draw listeners in.In This Episode● What aphasia is, and why it's known as a "hidden disability"● Jonathan's personal story: sudden onset, hospitalization, and diagnosis● The road through speech therapy and relearning to read, write, and speak● Why community groups are key to rebuilding confidence● How a documentary film became a podcast● Behind-the-scenes: recording with Zoom, editing in Reaper, publishing via Buzzsprout● The importance of podcast artwork and episode "teasers"● Where to find On the Tip of My Tongue and how to support the showLinks & ContactOn the Tip of My Tongue: tipofmytonguefilm.comEmail Jonathan: hello@tipofmytonguefilm.comFind Jonathan on Instagram, Facebook, and LinkedInPods Like UsContact: podslikeus@gmail.comAll links and socials: themarvzone.org

Style isn't just about what you wear... it's about where you come from.On this episode of Shad vs Everybody, Shad sits down with internationally published celebrity wardrobe stylist, creative director, and Detroit native Marv Neal for one of the most personal conversations you'll hear all season.Known for styling talent connected to hit television series like Power, BMF, commercial campaigns, magazine editorials, runway shows, and celebrities including Toni Braxton, Omari Hardwick, Icewear Vezzo, Lil Mo, Jalen Duren, Deelishis, Mia Ray and many more, Marv has built a career that proves Detroit fashion belongs on the world's biggest stages. His work has appeared in publications ranging from VIBE and Vogue Italia to Forbes, while his signature eye for detail has made him one of the most respected stylists in the industry.But this episode isn't just about fashion...Marv opens up about growing up on Detroit's east side, being raised in a household surrounded by strong women, and how the love, wisdom, and guidance of his grandmother helped shape the man he would become. He reflects on the unique experience of having parents who were still teenagers when he was born, how that influenced his outlook on life, and why family became the foundation behind his relentless work ethic.Shad and Marv also dive into:

This week on Pods Like Us Chronicles, Marv sits down with Jamie East — Head of Podcast at DGM, and creator/host of Bad Blood: Life of a Cancer — for an unfiltered conversation about turning a chronic myeloid leukaemia diagnosis into one of the most honest podcasts around.Jamie talks about recording the first phone call within days of diagnosis, why he refused to cut the swearing out in the edit, using dark humour as a coping mechanism, his trip to Glasgow with Leukaemia UK to meet the researchers behind the science, and why he called out a rival podcast's trailer for peddling "big pharma" conspiracy nonsense. He also explains why, one year on, he's not sure there's more to say — and why that might be exactly the right place to end a show.Content warning: this episode contains strong language throughout.After the interview, a trailer for fellow July Podcasting Month show Fallacious Trump, followed by Marv's usual round-up of the week's biggest podcasting news and views — and closing out with a trailer for Sports Are Dumb.The back half of this episode is Marv's usual whirlwind tour through the podcasting industry's week, pulling together insight from across the newsletter world. He touches on backing up your archive for new formats via Mia Kuroki, the discipline of staying in your lane rather than chasing every platform via Neal Veglio, and the shifting landscape at Buzzcast, Spotify and Megaphone via Gavin Gaddis. There's a nod to James Cridland's spot on Tom Holland interviewing Tom Holland, Frank Racioppi's Forbes piece championing shows that genuinely help people through hard moments in life, and Stephanie Fuccio's reflections on using AI to wrangle scattered thoughts and on the value of a good trailer. Rounding it out are GoodPods' most-viewed shows, John McDermott's take on parasocial listening habits and Netflix's secretive podcast numbers, and Tony Doe's look at AI discoverability, a rap-format chat show, and the growing podcast scene across Africa — a genuinely packed, "something for everyone" segment for anyone working in or around the medium.

From CIA Cats to Community: This Week in Podcasting -This week on Pods Like Us Chronicles, Marv reflects on two long walks, a moving new podcast about cancer, and sits down with two brilliant guests shaping the future of audio drama and scripted podcasting.In this episode:

Author David Guerrero joins Marv, Jon Stone and myself as we discuss the Beatles in Manila, and his book "You Won't See Me: When the Beatles ghosted Imelda."     Early July, 1966.    The Beatles had left Japan, and had one more stop before their US tour.    Unfortunately, Vic Lewis, Cavalcade and the Marcos family would have something to say about what might have been a triumphant moment in rock history.    #madeonzencastr.

Pods Like Us Chronicles — 5th July 2026This week, Marv brings a re-recorded conversation, two guest-spot clips from other shows, and a full round-up of his week in podcasting.He opens with an improved re-recording of his chat with Tobiloba Sulaiman, creator of AuTrans, a transcription tool built for African languages like Hausa, Pidgin, and Nigerian dialects. Tobiloba explains how the app grew out of his own struggle transcribing recordings in languages most tools don't support, how organic word-of-mouth marketing (rather than big-budget promotion) has driven steady sign-ups, and what's next for AuTrans — including a mobile app and features inspired by tools like Otter and Fireflies.Marv then shares two clips from other podcasting projects: a segment from Review It Yourself, featuring his partner Louise discussing the Sacha Baron Cohen film Ladies First, and a preview from When They Was Fab, where Martin and co-host Ed Chen dig into the Beatles' final 1966 tour.The episode wraps with Marv's regular newsletter-style round-up: shout-outs to podcasting writers and creators he's been following, an update on new artwork for the show, and a report on his progress through the July Podcasting Challenge (from posting a relaxation photo to building a new trailer for Season 11 of Pods Like Us). He closes by playing a trailer for a fellow challenge participant's show, Jacob Reid and Me — a documentary-comedy series about one man's search for others who share his name.In this episode:Building a niche transcription tool for underserved languages (AuTrans)Growing a product through organic, word-of-mouth marketingBehind-the-scenes clip: Ladies First film discussion (Review It Yourself)Behind-the-scenes clip: The Beatles' 1966 farewell tour (When They Was Fab)Weekly podcasting news and community shout-outsProgress update on the July Podcasting ChallengeTrailer preview: Jacob Reid and MeShow notes and title created with assistance from Claude AI

On Thursday the 2nd of July 2026 Marv spoke with Ana for what was intended to be around five or six minutes for a segment of a Chronicles episode, but it lasted a little bit longer.He decided instead of portioning off a five to six minute piece of the conversation to include it as a segment of the episode, that he would put out the longer discussion as what will now be episode one of season eleven!In this bonus episode, host Marv catches up with podcast producer and coach Ana Xavier, prompted by a LinkedIn post about her plans to meet fellow podcasters during her stay in London. The conversation opens with a look back at Ana's recent episode on ten ways to repurpose podcast content with less effort — including her standout tip of re-using clips from guest appearances on other shows as content for your own. Ana explains why these "guest spot" moments often reveal a more personal, less rehearsed side of a host that resonates strongly with listeners.The conversation then shifts to community: Ana talks about her history organizing podcast meetups (in Dallas, and now London), why in-person podcast conferences are worth prioritizing despite the cost or effort, and how genuine, lasting collaborations — not just networking — come out of them. Both Ana and Martin swap stories from The Podcast Show and Podcast Movement, including the value of finding a small "buddy group" to lean on at big events, overcoming first-timer nerves, and managing social battery at multi-day conferences. Ana closes by plugging her own episode on maximizing conference attendance and boosting downloads beforehand.Key themes: repurposing podcast content, imposter syndrome/fear around first conferences, building community as an underrepresented voice in a male-dominated industry, and the real-world friendships that come from podcast events.

This week Marv did more podcast editing, started writing articles, and more, but as the image shows, has still not got the new show art.Also this week he eats crow by apologising for a mistake the previous episode about listening times (thanks to Neal Veglio's Podmastery podcast), and received more inspiration from King Crimson's Robert Fripp. He also agreed with Dave Campbell's Substack article about getting more comfortable with show guests/friends, and yet again entered the AI debate, thanks to AI Michael Caine and John McDermott of Caloroga Shark Media.

Marv is joined by filmmaker, archive film researcher and founder of Stag Film Productions Mike Davis to discuss his new Green Film 'Dead, White And Blue'. In his filmmaking Mike reuses stock and archive footage that he pieces together, removes all of the sound from, and then creates a narrative around.As well as his work as a filmmaker in his own right, they also discuss his work as an archive and stock footage advisor for films such as American Made, The Lighthouse, Midsommar, Marvel's Eternals, and many more films. The discussion is filled with so much, that any creative person or film buff with find some fascinating insights from.
