Huntsville muralist Jessie Andrews returns to Beyond Rockets with a four-year update that's hard to miss—literally. From her chandelier in “Chandelier Alley” behind 106 Jefferson, to Good Fortune at MidCity, to multiple pieces at The Orion Amphitheater, Jessie breaks down the making of Huntsville's largest mural at Stella: a 2.5-year journey with five months on the lift, winter pauses, and a toolkit that ranges from squiggle grids and projectors to mixed reality with Meta Quest. We get into creative control vs. client vision, timelines, budgets, and why signing your work matters. Jessie also shares practical advice for aspiring muralists—how to get that first wall, when to take smaller budgets for portfolio wins, and the “next best step” mindset that keeps her moving. Plus, a peek at what's next, including new work for Mellow Mushroom and the U.S. Space & Rocket Center. If you've snapped photos of Huntsville's murals, there's a good chance you've already met Jessie's work.https://www.instagram.com/honeyblood.muralco/SponsorYellowhammer is a local craft brewery serving Huntsville for the past 14 years. They are known for their premium craft beers like T-Minus and Rebellion, but what you might not know is that they also offer spirits, wine, seltzers, and non-alcoholic drinks. Next time you stop by their location, try one of their seasonal cocktails made with Gemini Bourbon or Yellowhammer Vodka. Or try this year's big hit, Pineapple Punch seltzer.

Is your child's love for hockey fading?
Every great hockey season starts with one thing: team chemistry. But how do you actually build it? After two decades of leading team-building sessions for coaches, athletes, and organizations worldwide, Lee has distilled his best strategies, drills, and real-world lessons—both the wins and the hard-learned mistakes—into The Ultimate Team Building Course for Coaches. In this special micro-episode, he shares why team bonding isn't just “nice to have,” why the start of the season is the prime time to build it, and how this new online course can give you an entire season's worth of tools to strengthen trust, communication, leadership, and accountability on your team.If you've ever asked, “How can I get my players to truly work together?”—this is your playbook.

Send us a textTrust has become the scarcest resource in the digital marketplace. As consumer skepticism grows and advertising costs skyrocket, brands are discovering that third-party validation isn't just nice to have—it's essential for survival and growth.Digital growth strategist Tye DeGrange pulls back the curtain on how affiliate marketing has evolved from a misunderstood, often maligned tactic into a sophisticated trust-building ecosystem. "Affiliate is probably the most misunderstood and the most underrated part of performance marketing," he explains, detailing how his agency Roundbarn Labs has helped technology companies like Nextdoor, MetaQuest, and Grammarly build authentic performance marketing programs that deliver measurable results.The conversation takes a fascinating turn when exploring the intersection of AI and affiliate marketing. Brands are now seeking partnerships not just to reach consumers directly but to secure citations in AI systems like ChatGPT and Google's various LLMs. With AI-generated influencers gaining millions of followers (sometimes without disclosure), the premium on genuine human connection continues to grow. DeGrange predicts platforms facilitating authentic communication—particularly YouTube—will dominate by 2025 precisely because they're difficult for AI to replicate convincingly.For founders and marketing leaders, DeGrange offers practical guidance on when to implement affiliate strategies (typically after achieving product-market fit, around the $5M revenue mark) and how to approach matchmaking between brands and potential partners. The key? Authentic alignment that audiences can feel. As he puts it, "Kim Kardashian might be great for skincare, but maybe not for a tire company." This thoughtful approach to partnerships creates the foundation of trust that makes modern affiliate marketing effective.Ready to transform your marketing strategy from chasing clicks to building authentic trust? Listen now to discover how performance marketing can scale both your reach and your credibility in an increasingly skeptical digital landscape.

On this episode of the AI/XR Podcast, Charlie Fink, Ted Schilowitz, and Rony Abovitz welcome Brent Bushnell, co-founder of DreamPark, for an energizing conversation about the future of mixed reality entertainment. Brent shares how DreamPark turns public spaces into interactive theme parks using Meta Quest 3 headsets, enabling immersive gameplay on city streets, at malls, and even music festivals. The hosts reflect on the legacy of Magic Leap, the overlooked brilliance of the Magic Leap game Dr. Grordbort's Invaders, made exclusively for Magic Leap by New Zealand's WETA studio. Rony compares Brent's vision to Walt Disney, and the brainstorm an entire Dream Park business plan, discussing everything from retrofitting dead malls to launching pop-ups at Buc-ee's and Walmart. Along the way, they discuss the shortcomings of Apple Vision Pro, Magic Leap's lost potential, and the promise of scalable location-based XR. Equal parts XR therapy session and founder love-fest, this episode captures what happens when tech dreamers like Brent Bushnell find a working prototype.Thank you to our sponsor, Zappar!Don't forget to like, share, and follow for more!

The Federal Communications Commission is planning a review of the US emergency alert systems. The announcement of this plan notes that the infrastructure underlying the EAS — which includes radio, television, satellite and cable systems — is 31 years old, while the framework underpinning the Wireless mobile device alert is 13 years old. Also, Meta previewed some of its latest virtual reality prototypes this week, with concepts that are compelling on the specs and long on the design. The company shared some details on its Tiramisu project, dubbing it "hyperrealistic VR." This set promises three times the contrast, 14 times the maximum brightness and 3.6 times the angular resolution of the Meta Quest 3. In actual stats, that's up to 1,400 nits of brightness and an angular resolution of 90 pixels per degree; and HBO Max will begin an "aggressive" messaging campaign about the practice beginning next month, according to an earnings report. Beyond stricter messaging, the company is looking to close any and all loopholes that allow users to share account passwords by the end of the year. Learn more about your ad choices.
