Dan Reeder is a singer-songwriter and painter originally from Louisiana, who has lived in Germany for decades, released critically acclaimed records via John Prine's Oh Boy Records (as one of the first artists signed to the label, at almost 50 years old), and is somewhat of a cult folk-hero. Dan has toured very infrequently over his 20+ year music career, and we talk about why and his feelings about the concept of touring in general, his approach to staying creative musically and in his visual art, the connections he sees between painting and recording songs, we get an inside look at synths that he is currently building, and a whole lot more.Get more access and support this show by subscribing to our Patreon, right here.Links:Dan ReederIris DementPheobe BridgersJohn PrineHealing AppalachiaEp 75 - Nicole AtkinsJourney InstrumentsK&K Western MiniFurch GuitarsOh Boy RecordsEp 16 - Rodney CrowellEp 27 - Mary GauthierHarry PartchTex CobbClick here to watch this conversation on YouTube.Social Media:The Other 22 Hours InstagramThe Other 22 Hours TikTokMichaela Anne InstagramAaron Shafer-Haiss InstagramAll music written, performed, and produced by Aaron Shafer-Haiss.

It's episode 178 of the Gnar Couch Podshow! We're already three minutes in and the F-bomb counter is higher than your buddy who “microdosed” but forgot the “micro.” Utah probably hates us (again), but that's fine—Utah also hates fun, women's thighs, and beer over 4%. But, this isn't your dad's mountain bike podcast. Actually, your dad probably left because you bought an E-bike, then he joined a Facebook group called Lycra Enthusiasts Who Love Buttholes. Guess what? We're all you've got now. This episode: memes, caffeine jitters, brown-eye contact, and the unholy truth that “analog” is being horribly mispronounced. Mountain bike culture is dead, and we're here performing a necrophilia-themed jazzercise class on its stiff little corpse. Joining us is the meme-lord himself, Ryden Dirty—43 years old, knees like stale breadsticks, and a professional at making Facebook warriors cry into their Garmin watches. He's an ex-BMXer, chef, and current semi-professional button-pusher. If you get offended by him, congratulations—you're softer than a Casey's gas station pizza. We've also got: A Zoom room full of Russian bots who keep trying to sell us boner pills. Facebook dads with “opinions” so bad they make your uncle's QAnon posts look reasonable. A merch store with more hoodies than a middle school vape circle. Throw in some ADHD, chef rage, and a bunch of dudes old enough to schedule colonoscopies around bike rides, and you've got yourself a certified Gnar Couch dumpster fire. So grab a chamois, double up if your prostate needs it, and let's kick this turd downhill. Welcome to Gnar Couch, where joy comes to die and the only KOM we care about is “King of Mediocrity.” Guest info: Ryden Dirty Check out our store for sick shirts.

In Part 3: Kyle Steiner explains how "Comfort and Progress, don't live in the same home." Combat, war and pushing your body to the extreme may seem uncomfortable to most, but were areas where Kyle felt at home. With retirement from the Army fast approaching, Kyle opens about what he finds uncomfortable in civilian life and how he needs to push past that initial hesitation in order to be the man that his children will be proud to call their father. There are no excuses for mediocrity and in this final installment of The Present Father's Interview with Kyle Steiner, he explains that he plans on taking on civilian life, fatherhood and any other future challenges with the same gusto that he approached his time in the military. About Kyle Steiner: Kyle is a husband and father, a U.S. Army Green Beret, Chief Warrant Officer, and the founder of Operator Mindset—a leadership and coaching platform helping highly successful men reclaim discipline, presence, and purpose in their lives. Shortly after joining the Army in 2005, he served with the 173rd Airborne Brigade in what is widely regarded as one of the most kinetic deployments ever during the Global War on Terror and was featured in the acclaimed documentaries "Restrepo" and "Korengal." Kyle was actually shot in the head on this deployment but survived the harrowing experience. Since then, he has completed multiple missions to the Middle East, Central America, and South America with U.S. Special Operations teams. He is the recipient of 2 Purple Hearts and 3 Bronze Stars as well as an ARCOM with V Device. He is Ranger-qualified, Combat Diver-qualified, HALO-certified, and a graduate of the Special Forces Sniper Course. He has spent the majority of his Special Forces career in the SOCOM Crisis Response Force (CRF/CIF). ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Follow Kyle: Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/realkylesteiner Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/real.kyle.steiner/ Website: https://operatormindset.kit.com/6453744313 ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Don't forget to like, subscribe, and share this episode to inspire someone else who might need it. #restrepo #war #afghanistan #specialforces #podcast ____________________________________________ Music from #InAudio: https://inaudio.org/ Infraction - Training Day If you are tired of feeling lost, alone, isolated, and aimless then check out our coaching program specifically designed to help men become the hero in their story.

Send us a textEver watched a movie so bad it makes you question how it was even made? That's exactly what happened when we subjected ourselves to Sony's latest Spider-Man Universe disaster, Madam Web. From the moment Dakota Johnson's paramedic character coldly dismisses a child thanking her for saving their mother, we knew we were in for a special kind of cinematic catastrophe.The problems with this film run deeper than a spider's web. Every performance feels like it was delivered under duress, with talented actors like Sydney Sweeney appearing completely stripped of their natural abilities. Dakota Johnson delivers each line as if she's reading it for the first time, with comedic timing so poor it sabotages even the rare moments when the script manages a decent joke. Meanwhile, the villain suffers from dialogue that appears completely disconnected from his on-screen actions, suggesting extensive post-production fixes that failed spectacularly.What makes Madam Web particularly disappointing isn't just that it's bad - it's that it lacks even the ambition to be memorably terrible. Unlike cult classics that fail with passion, this film feels created on autopilot, devoid of creative risks or distinctive vision. The plot holes are numerous and baffling: a clairvoyant villain who can't see an oncoming car, a protagonist who abandons the very people she's meant to protect, and timeline inconsistencies that make no logical sense. Add in the most heavy-handed Pepsi product placement we've seen in years, and you have a film that earns a solid zero out of five stars. Did you subject yourself to Madam Web? We'd love to hear your thoughts in the comments below, and don't forget to subscribe for more brutally honest movie reviews! Support the show

Feeling like I'm constantly racing against time yet never truly arriving anywhere meaningful is something I've grappled with for years. Despite achieving outward success, I often find myself emotionally flat, trapped in a cycle of mediocrity. In this episode, I unpack how constant busyness can lead to emotional numbness and even subclinical depression, affecting everyone from high achievers to overwhelmed parents. Together, we explore how coping mechanisms for grief, shame, and chronic stress slowly silence our true feelings, leaving us yearning for a life of genuine emotional engagement and fulfillment.Zombie goals—ambitions declared without real conviction—can haunt even the most well-intentioned among us. I discuss the fine line between maintaining a full calendar and feeling overwhelmed, the auto-reassurance that cloaks our stress, and the "decision drift" where our grand aspirations dissipate into inaction. Through personal stories, I highlight the dangers of digital distractions and emphasize the importance of aligning our behaviors with our beliefs. The episode offers practical pathways to re-sensitize ourselves to the world, helping us reconnect with what truly matters and live more vibrant, purposeful lives.Honesty, both with oneself and the world, emerges as a powerful tool in combating emotional numbness. I explore strategies for upgrading our truth through micro-honesty, reducing emotional suppression, and finding presence in our daily lives. Learn about taking decisive action within a two-minute window to curb indecision and rumination, and discover the joy in sensory experiences that counteract phone addiction. Join me in nurturing a flourishing mental landscape, and embrace a journey toward enhanced well-being, one honest moment at a time.Key highlights:Crushing Mediocrity to Achieve HappinessTransforming Numbing Behaviors for HappinessUpgrading Truth With Micro-HonestyMaking Decisive Moves for HappinessConnect with Alison:Instagram: @alisonanswers | @lagercounselingWebsite: LagerCounseling.comYouTube: Alison AnswersFacebook: Alison Lager Lcsw CasacPurchase Alison's book: “The Wake Up Call”Alison Answers Facebook Group: Join HEREWomen of Excellence FB group: Join HERE

Artificial intelligence is rapidly transforming industries worldwide, and home inspection is squarely in its sights. In this thought-provoking conversation with returning guest Preston Kincaid, we explore the coming AI revolution that threatens to fundamentally alter how home inspections are conducted—and what separates the inspectors who will thrive from those who won't survive.The parallels to travel agents in 1999 are striking. When airlines introduced online booking, travel agencies nearly vanished overnight. Yet today, premium travel advisors continue to thrive by providing exceptional, relationship-based services that algorithms can't replicate. Home inspectors face this exact crossroads, with $99 AI inspection services already emerging and technology advancing rapidly.Preston and I dig into what truly matters: creating meaningful experiences rather than simply generating reports. We challenge the industry mindset that views client attendance during inspections as a distraction rather than an opportunity to build trust and demonstrate value. Those relationships—not technical expertise alone—will determine which inspectors command premium prices in the AI era.The future will likely see a market divided between budget AI-powered services and premium human consultations. Mediocrity won't survive; inspectors must decide whether they're report generators or professional consultants. By focusing on client experience, embracing technology as a tool rather than a threat, and continuously improving their service offerings, forward-thinking inspectors can position themselves to thrive despite—or perhaps because of—technological disruption.Whether you're a seasoned inspector concerned about industry changes or a homebuyer wondering about the future of professional home assessments, this episode provides crucial insights into the technological revolution transforming real estate services. Listen now to understand how human connection will remain the ultimate competitive advantage in a world increasingly dominated by artificial intelligence.Check out our home inspection app at www.inspectortoolbelt.comNeed a home inspection website?

Have you ever felt like the very thing you want -(being seen, celebrated, chosen, and ACHIEVING EPIC SUCCESS) was also the scariest thing you could allow because of the 'cost associated'? In this episode, we dive into The Visibility Wound. Not just as a fear of being judged online or going viral for the wrong reasons, but as a deep, subconscious tether to community, safety, and staying small enough to "belong" and not rock the boat. If you've ever asked yourself: “Can I still belong and have support as I become more visible and successful?”, this episode is gonna HIT. (It hit to record it) Join us in the premier Dreamaway Membership for so many resources including 40+ Dreamaway-exclusive tapping sessions (90 minutes of deep-dive subconscious rewiring/EFT tapping), visualizations, 40+ tapping "Money Dates" (abundance programming), daily tapping videos, weekly energy readings, astrological updates, and so much more! https://haleyhoffmansmith.com/dreamaway   @dreamawaymembership on IG   Order my book, You Have the Magic:  https://youhavethemagic.com/  @haleyhoffmansmith on IG/TikTok   AUGUST DREAMAWAY THEME: VISIBILITY WOUND  90 Minute Session - Visibility Wound: Rejection & Belonging | Sunday, August 10th 3:30-5:00pm ET In this 90-minute subconscious breakthrough tapping session, we'll unravel the visibility wound: specifically where it intersects with rejection, outshining, and belonging. This is for the part of you that's been dimming your light to stay safe, shrinking to keep the peace, and/or fearful that you won't feel loved & supported as you rise. We'll explore and dissolve the fear that if you're fully seen, you'll be judged, misunderstood, or left behind, because these beliefs create subtle sabotage patterns like hiding wins, playing small, or resisting momentum. This session is your portal back to the version of you who knows in your heart of hearts that it's  safe to be seen, loved in your fullness, and celebrated for who you actually are. Money Date - It's Safe to Be Seen Earning MORE | Monday, August 18th 8:00pm ET  In this month's Money Date, we're clearing one of the sneakiest subconscious blocks to abundance: the fear of being seen earning more. Maybe it's not the money itself that feels scary…it's what it might mean to be visible in your financial success. To surpass others. To no longer be “relatable.” To be judged, resented, or misunderstood for having more. In this tapping session, we'll dissolve the guilt, the hiding, and the fear of outshining so that you can step into your next level of wealth confidently. We'll rewire the belief that your earning power threatens connection and install a new truth: that being seen in your abundance is safe, sacred, and a service to others. You're allowed to rise without losing love. And you're more than allowed to be seen in your overflow.

Director Mike Pecci joins host David Kruta to dissect the chaos of post-COVID Hollywood, the false promises of AI disruption, and the suffocating gatekeeping of the studio system. Pecci lays bare the existential challenges of trying to create authentic work in an industry gripped by fear, algorithmic control, and vanishing opportunities. In a world where pitching feels like shouting into a void, Pecci finds power in simply continuing to create, and the filmmakers who will survive are the ones who know how to make something out of nothing—and do it with heart.

Within the context of our annual Summer Drive-In series, we delve into the cinematic depths of the 1990 film, "Captain America," which regrettably resides within the realm of critically panned productions, holding a dismal rating of 30% or lower on Rotten Tomatoes. This episode, released on the 4th of July, finds us, Joshua Noel and Evan Garcia, endeavoring to unearth the redeeming qualities of this film, despite its notorious reputation. As we navigate through our reflections, we confront the peculiarities of its narrative, the characterizations, and the overall execution, which at times elicits both bewilderment and bemusement. Our discourse aims to illuminate the aspects that may, albeit marginally, resonate with audiences or provoke thought, even in a film that largely falters. Join us as we explore the convoluted journey of a superhero whose exploits, though lacking in heroism, ultimately inspire a generation, culminating in a discussion that probes the essence of what it means to be a hero in the most unconventional of circumstances.The latest installment of Systematic Geekology's Summer Drive-In series delves into the cinematic misadventure that is the 1990 film Captain America, starring Matt Salinger. This edition, coinciding with the Fourth of July, presents a unique opportunity to critically analyze a film that has garnered a mere 6% on Rotten Tomatoes. Joshua Noel and Evan Garcia embark on a quest to uncover any redeeming qualities in this ostensibly 'rotten' film. They explore the peculiar narrative choices, including the unconventional portrayal of Captain America as a Californian rather than the traditional Brooklynite, and the bizarre backstory of the Red Skull. The film's pacing, which oscillates from hurried to painfully slow, becomes a focal point of the discussion, prompting the hosts to reflect on how such narrative structures impact viewer engagement. Despite the film's shortcomings, the hosts endeavor to highlight the performances of actors like Ronny Cox, whose portrayal of the President is met with begrudging appreciation amidst the chaos. Overall, the episode serves as both a comedic and critical examination of a film that, while flawed, offers insights into the evolution of superhero cinema.Takeaways: In our analysis of the 1990 film Captain America, we explore the peculiar narrative choices made in its adaptation from comic book lore to cinematic portrayal. The pacing of Captain America is notably inconsistent, oscillating between hurried sequences and prolonged scenes that detract from the overall viewing experience. We reflect on the film's themes of childhood trauma and inspiration, particularly how these elements shape the characters of both Captain America and Red Skull. Despite the film's numerous flaws, we find merit in its exploration of character backstories, particularly how they inform the motivations of the protagonists and antagonists alike. Our discussion highlights the impact of performance quality, particularly praising Ronny Cox's portrayal of the President as a standout amidst a generally lackluster cast. Ultimately, we conclude that while Captain America (1990) may not hold up as a great film, it serves as an interesting artifact in the evolution of superhero cinema. ..Check out the rest of our Rotten Films 2025 Summer Drive-In series:https://player.captivate.fm/collection/949652f2-fee2-4b3e-acbf-e2bb8dcdcddc.Listen to all of our Marvel episodes:https://player.captivate.fm/collection/fb519d38-2d9b-4f82-b041-81b81613543c.Check out other episodes with Joshua:

So if you're ready to stop clapping for mediocrity and start demanding excellence from yourself and those you lead, buckle up – this episode is going to sting a little, and that's exactly why you need it.
