Anniversaries often invite reflection, and it's remarkable to see how games that once felt like simple pastimes have evolved into celebrated traditions like gaming with friends, family members asking “So, what are we playing?”, or a gateway to conversation with people you meet. These moments remind us that board games are more than cardboard and dice—they're shared memories that endure across generations. Board games themselves have become a bridge between nostalgia and innovation, and their recognition in the National Toy Hall of Fame underscores their cultural significance. Titles like Monopoly, Scrabble, and Clue have already earned their place among the Hall's inductees, standing alongside toys like the Rubik's Cube and LEGO. It's a reminder that the Hall isn't just about toys—it's about honoring the timeless rituals of play. Thanks to all that continue to listen to us, we really appreciate it.

In this episode of Parallax Views, J.G. Michael is joined by freelance film journalist Corey Atad, who has written for such publications as The Baffler and Defector, to break down the growing likelihood of Netflix acquiring Warner Bros. Discovery and what a Netflix–Warner Bros. merger would mean for Hollywood, media competition, and the future of cinema. The discussion examines how Netflix's ambitions could end up reshaping the entertainment industry—often at the expense of workers, audiences, and cultural life. Atad also analyzes David Ellison's attempted hostile takeover of Warner Bros. Discovery, a move widely seen as an effort to block a Netflix takeover. Despite positioning himself as an alternative to Netflix, Ellison—who is aligned with MAGA political networks and Silicon Valley power structures—raises serious concerns due to his erratic leadership style and behind-the-scenes dealings, including reported personal outreach to Warner Bros. Discovery CEO David Zaslav while actively attempting to seize control of the company. The episode further explores fears that a Paramount–Skydance merger could transform CNN into a MAGA-aligned media outlet, with Atad arguing that the deeper issue may be the accelerating collapse of cable news itself rather than partisan capture alone. A central theme of the conversation is how Netflix and streaming consolidation threaten movie theaters, which Atad frames as vital communal spaces in a time of increasing social atomization. Michael and Atad discuss how the Netflix business model, rooted in a Silicon Valley “disruptive” mindset, prioritizes scale and dominance over shared cultural experiences—placing theatrical exhibition and mid-budget filmmaking at risk. The episode concludes by arguing that neither Netflix absorbing Warner Bros. nor a Skydance takeover represents a good outcome, and that a functioning democratic state would prevent this level of media consolidation in the first place. Special attention is given to how a Netflix–Warner Bros. deal could harm Canada's media industry, where Atad is based. In other words, this episode discusses regulation, monopoly, culture, the potential death of theaters, and what it all in the bigger picture for America and the world through a conversation about Netflix's acquiring Warner Bros. It's a doozy at around 2 hours but should interest movie and non-movie fans alike!

Hoy investigaremos la vida de Valerie Jane Morris Goodall, más conocida como Jane Goodall, la Melody de ellos. Jane nació en Londres el 3 de abril de 1934, en una familia de esas que sólo conoce infojobs porque de vez en cuando los llaman de un número oculto para decirles que han recibido su currículum perfectamente, que si eso ya eso. Jane tenía una hermana, Judith, que nació el mismo día que ella pero 4 años después, que eso es como nacer el día de reyes, te roban un regalo porque “esto es pa las dos, ¿eh?” Su padre, Mortimer Herbert Morris-Goodall era un hombre de negocios, que es el eufemismo que se usa en la alta sociedad para decir que echaba a gente de sus casas para especular con la vivienda. Porque claro, hombre de negocios viste más. Su madre fue Margaret Myfanwe Joseph que escribía novelas para poder quitarse de enmedio y no tener que aguantar al padre. En total escribió la friolera de un libro, igualando la marca actual de nuestro amado líder Don Vilima. Cuando era chequetita le regalaron un chimpancé de peluche y eso desató en ella un gran amor por los animales, sobre todo los que tienen mucho pelo como por ejemplo el puma “Boomerang, boomerang, ¡VIVA LA NUMERACIÓN!”. Digo yo que viendo que eso funciona, me podrían haber regalao de chica el Monopoly y ahora me saldrían a mí los billetes como le salen marrones a Pedro Sánchez. Jane de jovencita estudió menos que Juanma Moreno pero como se llevó tantos años en África mirando cómo las monas le quitaban los piojos de los monitos, en 1965 la Universidad de Cambridge le otorgó un doctorado en etología, como a Belén Esteban que le dieron el carné de periodista por llevarse muchos años haciendo programas de calidad. Jane se llevó tanto tiempo en Tanzania que llegó cuando se llamaba Tanganica. También era primatóloga, destacando en este campo su estudio “Cuánto más primo, más me arrimo”. En 1969 se casó con un fotógrafo de National Geographic que se llevaba tor día haciéndole fotos a las monas quitándole los piojos a los monitos. De ese matrimonio nació su hijo Hugo y su título de baronesa, como la tarta que se tomaba tu tía el día de año nuevo que mandaba a tu primo con los pelos pegaos a la confitería porque había que recibir a la familia. En esta época tenía tó la cara de Miranda, la mujé de Julio Iglesias, y se cogió una coleta mu estirá con mucha colonia en el casco que le duró más que unas botas Panama Jack. En 1975 se divorció del barón y se casó con un político de Tanzania que era director de parques nacionales, porque a ella quería seguir mirando cómo las monas le quitaban los piojos a los monitos. Le dieron una jartá de premios pero los más chulos fueron, un cameo en los Simpsons, la Barbie inspirada en ella de Mattel el set 40530 de Lego con Jane mirando a una mona quitándole un paquete papas a un turista en el peñón de Gibraltar. Desgraciadamente nuestra querida Jane nos dejaba el pasado 1 de octubre de 2025 con 91 años, aunque ustedes siempre podrán recordarla cada vez que una madre escriba en el grupo de clase que en el colegio hay piojos o Don Vilima escriba otro libro.

The transformation of the Labour Party by 1997 is among the most consequential political developments in modern British history. Futures of Socialism overhauls the story of Labour's modernisation and provides an innovative new history. Diving into the tumultuous world of the British left after 1973, rocked by crushing defeats, bitter schisms, and ideological disorientation, Colm Murphy uncovers competing intellectual agendas for modern socialism. Responding to deindustrialisation, neoliberalism, and constitutional agitation, these visions of 'modernisation' ranged across domestic and European policy and the politics of class, gender, race, and democracy. By reconstructing the sites and networks of political debate, Futures of Socialism: ‘Modernisation', the Labour Party, and the British Left, 1973–1997 (Cambridge UP, 2023) explains their changing influence inside Labour. It also throws new light on New Labour, highlighting its roots in this social-democratic intellectual maelstrom. Futures of Socialism provides an essential analysis of social democracy in an era of market liberalism, and of the ideas behind a historic political reconstruction that remains deeply controversial today. Colm Murphy is a historian of modern British and Irish politics and political economy at Queen Mary University of London. He has published on 1970s-80s social democracy (including its political culture, evolving electoral strategy, and economic policymaking) and on Irish labour relations and nationalism in the 1910s. His more recent work has focused on the politics of economic policy, including Keynesianism, austerity, trade, and currency. Since 2018, Colm has worked for the Mile End Institute and is currently its Deputy Director. Jacob Ward is a historian at Maastricht University, the Netherlands. He has written in the history of science and technology, environmental history, business and financial history, and political history. He recently published Visions of a Digital Nation: Market and Monopoly in British Telecommunications (MIT Press, 2024) and he's currently working on a history of futurology in the United Kingdom and Europe from 1945 to the present day.

Warner Bros Discovery, the Hollywood studio and media company, is up for grabs, and Netflix and Paramount are battling to own it.

There's a word that's gained a lot of popularity in the last year: “ensh*ttification”. It refers to a trajectory many see with digital platforms: they initially offer immense value to users, only to systematically degrade that quality over time in order to extract maximum surplus for shareholders. We invited the coiner of this term, science fiction author and activist Cory Doctorow, on the podcast to discuss whether he thinks this decline is an inevitable feature of digital markets or a consequence of specific policy failures. And, most importantly, how he thinks it could be reversed.For Doctorow, "ensh*ttification" is not simply a result of "revealed preferences", where users tolerate worse service because they value the platform, but rather the outcome of a regulatory environment that has permitted the creation of high switching costs and the elimination of competitors. Doctorow also argues that historically, interoperability acted as an engine of dynamism, allowing new entrants to lower the barriers to entry. But current IP frameworks, such as anti-circumvention laws, have been "weaponized" to prevent this, effectively allowing firms to enforce cartels and engage in rent-seeking behavior.Finally, Doctorow offers a critical assessment of the current AI boom, arguing that the sector is creating "reverse centaurs", where human labor is conscripted to correct algorithmic errors, and warns of a potential asset bubble driven by inflated revenue attribution.

This week on Market Mondays, we kick things off with our Futures Trading Tip of the Week and a breakdown of the biggest investing mistake of the year. We dive into the shocking rebound of Carvana joining the S&P 500 after nearly going bankrupt — debating whether it's a true comeback story or a sign the market is getting reckless again. We also break down the massive bidding war for Warner Bros Discovery, who needs WBD the most to survive the next decade, and what this means for the future of media. Caleb Silver, Editor-in-Chief of Investopedia, joins us with expert data and insight throughout the discussion.We compare Paramount's heavy debt load to Netflix's growth and free cash flow dominance and question whether a Netflix–WBD deal would spark a new era of media consolidation or run into regulatory roadblocks. From there, we shift to AI and corporate strategy, analyzing IBM's $11B acquisition of Confluent and whether M&A is becoming the quiet force powering the next leg of the AI boom. We also cover holiday spending vs weak investor sentiment, whether investors should rotate into safer stocks, and what Wednesday's Fed decision could mean for markets heading into 2026.To wrap up, we go rapid-fire: the most attractive stocks currently dipping for LEAPs and swing trades, which companies are less likely to be corrupt or mismanaged, whether failed AI bets could force bailouts in tech, Bitcoin's next move toward $65K or $70K, Apple's potential talent crisis after losing multiple key executives, and if an oil collapse into the $30s could make the entire energy sector uninvestable.

The 2026 World Cup Draw delivered fresh group pairings and global excitement, with Kevin Hart and Heidi Klum taking the stage as celebrity announcers. In a nostalgic twist, the moment echoed TV history: back in the 1950s, William Morris Agency didn’t even have a television division in Los Angeles until Phil Weltman launched it—later bringing in comedy legend Tim Conway. As the weekend approaches, most families are gearing up to buy their Christmas trees, while the entertainment world is buzzing over a seismic business move: Netflix is set to acquire Warner Bros. after its split from Discovery Global, at a massive $82.7 billion enterprise value. Meanwhile, nostalgia hits the board-game aisle as people rediscover old-school favorites—The Game of Life (complete with little blue and pink people) and Monopoly, reminding everyone that strategy and luck still rule the classics. In Los Angeles, journalist Elex Michaelson reported from Max & Helen’s Diner, a project created by Phil Rosenthal and iconic chef Nancy Silverton. Rosenthal—best known for creating Everybody Loves Raymond and hosting Netflix’s Emmy-nominated Somebody Feed Phil—is sparking talk of an Everybody Loves Raymond reunion as his popularity keeps climbing. And finally, dinner trends continue to evolve: with early-bird specials kicking off around 5 PM, families and diners are adjusting habits, while pizza orders shift toward fewer toppings and smaller sizes as people rethink budget, flavor, and simplicity.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

In this episode, Austin and KV break down the chaos surrounding ProjectX pulling out of nearly every futures prop firm, leaving Tradeovate/NinjaTrader — now under Kraken — as the dominant platform. They discuss how this shift impacts traders, why platforms struggle to match ProjectX's simplicity, and what the future of prop trading may look like in a more monopolized ecosystem. The conversation also touches on crypto prop firms, payout economics, and whether a new ProjectX–style platform could realistically be built.Sponsor: Breakout PropLink: https://www.asfx.biz/BOPCode: ASFX Sponsor: BlackShirtClub Group CoachingLink: https://www.asfx.biz/bscThey then shift into trading psychology and why most traders quit long before they ever give themselves a real chance. KV shares data showing that 73% of traders in his free community took zero action, prompting a discussion about why people don't value free resources, the importance of embracing boredom in trading, and the discipline required to stay consistent through both winning and losing streaks. The episode wraps with updates on the Tampa Bootcamp featuring Brian Shannon and a reminder of the power of in-person community for traders who usually grind alone.Connect with KVWebsite: https://peakvestsociety.com/Social/YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@UCYwLdMULKL0GmPnQn4VpY3g ——

Welcome to another dynamic episode of Impact Theory with Tom Bilyeu! In this thought-provoking installment, Tom Bilyeu and co-host Drew dive into a whirlwind of today's most pressing topics, delivering sharp insights and lively debate. The episode opens with a rapid-fire rundown of major news—from the possibility of Americans buying healthcare through retailers like Costco, to Palantir skipping the college degree requirement in its hiring process, and the high-stakes race for AI dominance as Sam Altman sounds the alarm at OpenAI. Tom Bilyeu and Drew break down the real challenges behind America's healthcare system, emphasizing the power of competition and the controversial idea of personal responsibility in health outcomes. The discussion then shifts to education and career, as Drew shares his personal thoughts on college and apprenticeships, while Tom Bilyeu weighs the pros and cons of debt and traditional university paths in the era of AI and internet learning. But it doesn't stop there—the duo takes on the fierce battle between Google and OpenAI for AI supremacy, unraveling what competition (or monopoly) could mean for innovation, the economy, and us as consumers. Expect bold takes on how major tech players, government intervention, and monopolistic behavior could shape the future. From there, Tom Bilyeu offers a compelling vision for how AI will transform not just work, but the fundamental fabric of society, meaning, and even crime. The conversation ranges from personal teacher stories, university controversies surrounding free speech, to the changing nature of human relationships and ambition in a digital age. Packed with real talk, tactical advice, and the kind of high-level perspective only Impact Theory delivers, this episode challenges listeners to think critically about the future—and how to stay ahead of the curve.

Why is it so expensive to build a house in America? That's a question economists, politicians and pundits have argued at length about, but can't agree on. In today's episode of Second Request, executive editor Teddy Downey sits down with Steven Xiao, Associate Professor of Finance at the University of Texas at Dallas Naveen Jindal School of Management and Ph.D candidate Zheng Liu for a robust discussion about how concentration in the homebuilding sector has led to increased costs and prices.

Federal Judge Dismisses FTC Antitrust Complaint Against Meta — Jessica Melugin — Judge Boasberg dismissed the FTC's monopoly complaint on the foundational grounds that the agency failed to properly define the relevant market, artificially inflating Meta's competitive share by excluding dominant competitors including TikTok and YouTube. Melugin documents that proper market definition analysis places Meta's competitive share at approximately 30–50%, insufficient to constitute monopoly status under established antitrust doctrine, with the decision correctly emphasizing forward-looking statutory authority rather than retroactive punishment of 2020 historical behavior. 1953

A recent proposal by Lina Khan, co-chair of Zohran Mamdani's mayoral transition team, to cap the price of beer at stadiums in New York City sparked a debate on X last month. At the center of that debate was Matthew Yglesias, editor and author the Slow Boring newsletter, who argued that the modern antitrust movement has become "slipshod" and is ignoring basic economic trade-offs in favor of political wins.In this episode, Yglesias joins Luigi and Bethany to discuss his views on the theoretical and practical limitations of the "Neo-Brandeisian" approach to antitrust. He contends that proposals like price caps for complementary goods like stadium concessions reveals a lack of economic rigor, arguing that such measures often result in higher ticket prices rather than consumer savings . He suggests that the movement increasingly attempts to use antitrust law as a universal tool for societal grievances.Bethany and Luigi debate Yglesias on the limits of this modern anti-monopoly movement, arguing that he sounds like a "Chicago economist circa 1970" who assumes markets are always efficient and rational. From the lobbying might of the banking industry to the extractive fees of Amazon, Luigi argues that economic concentration inevitably morphs into political power which standard price theory often ignores. He posits that even if consolidated industries remain price-efficient, their size allows for the capture of the regulatory process—citing the banking and tobacco industries as historical precedents.Of course, antitrust enforcement isn't the only proposal on the table to address people's concerns about price levels, as the current excitement around the "affordability" and "abundance" movements demonstrate. But Yglesias argues neither abundance, affordability nor antitrust is going to drive down nominal prices. As he puts it: the only thing that could do that is “a catastrophic depression…but that's not going to make people happier". Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.

Does your place in the family — firstborn, middle child, or youngest — really shape who you are? Birth-order theory has been debated for decades. This episode begins by exploring what science actually says about how sibling order affects personality, achievement, and relationships. https://psychcentral.com/blog/birth-order-and-personality#birth-order-and-personality Around the holiday season, many of us feel a wave of nostalgia — longing for people, places, and moments from the past. Once thought of as a sign of weakness, nostalgia is now proven to be a powerful source of emotional strength and meaning. Psychologist Clay Routledge, PhD, explains how revisiting fond memories can improve mood, boost motivation, and even help you plan a better future. Clay is author of Past Forward: How Nostalgia Can Help You Live a More Meaningful Life. (https://amzn.to/3uC1sAs). Why do humans love to play games — from chess to Monopoly? According to mathematician Marcus du Sautoy, games are far more than fun diversions; they're a reflection of human creativity, problem-solving, and evolution itself. Marcus, professor of mathematics at Oxford and author of Around the World in Eighty Games (https://amzn.to/3MV5Lxm), reveals what games can teach us about life, luck, and strategy — and why Monopoly may be the most misunderstood game of all. And if you share your home with a cat this holiday season, you know what happens when feline meets Christmas tree. Don't worry — there's a fix.

From the outside, it was the definition of normal: a comfortable family home on a quiet street where kids rode bikes and neighbors waved across manicured lawns. But inside, from the moment she could walk the hallway alone, she knew this house was not like the others. It didn't just creak or settle. It watched. Her first memory isn't of a nightmare — it's of a board game playing itself. At five years old, she sat on her bed and watched a Monopoly piece slide across the board, dice roll, money taken… all by a player she couldn't see. As she grew, the house evolved with her. Scratching inside the walls. A wardrobe that shook every night. Dolls that mysteriously moved from their shelves to the floor by morning. Then came the out-of-body moment: going downstairs to speak to her father… only to find herself already asleep in bed. Years later, puzzle books completed in someone else's handwriting, a TV remote thrown out a closed bathroom window, a scream only she heard, and a child's voice whispering “Hello” in the dark. When her no-nonsense mother finally heard that same voice at 3 a.m., followed by a soft, eerie laugh, denial died. This wasn't pipes. This wasn't imagination. This was something intelligent. Patient. Personal. And one night, when the laughter stopped and the presence leaned in close to her ear, it finally spoke the words that changed everything: “I see you.” #ghoststories #realghoststories #paranormal #hauntedhouse #truehaunting #creepystories #childspirit #poltergeist #shadowpeople #paranormalpodcast #scarytales #supernatural Love real ghost stories?

Here's a secret: some of the best financial education doesn't come from books or podcasts. It comes from a board game box. Joe Saul-Sehy welcomes Kylie Prymus, board game expert and owner of Pittsburgh's award-winning store Games Unlimited, for a conversation about the games that sneak money lessons into brilliant gameplay. These aren't boring "educational games" that make kids groan—they're genuinely fun strategy games that happen to teach supply and demand, resource management, risk assessment, and long-term planning better than most finance courses. Kylie walks through his top picks for economic games that'll make you (and your kids, and yes, your brother-in-law) think differently about money. From deck-builders like Dominion that teach portfolio diversification to Food Chain Magnate (basically an MBA in a box, but way more entertaining), these games turn financial concepts into actual decisions with consequences you can see play out in real time. But this isn't just about learning—it's about leveling up your holiday gatherings. Kylie shares his favorite cozy games for the season, from the absurdly cute cat-themed strategy game Boop to party games like Monikers that even Uncle Larry can't ruin. Whether you need something cooperative to bring the family together or competitive enough to settle old scores, this episode has you covered. Plus: you'll hear why game stores like Games Unlimited curate experiences (not just inventory), and how the right game can turn a tense holiday gathering into something people actually want to repeat. What You'll Walk Away With: • The board games that teach money concepts like budgeting, income streams, and resource management without feeling like homework • Why Dominion, Food Chain Magnate, and other economic games are secretly brilliant financial teachers • Kylie's top holiday game picks—from cozy strategy games to party games that work for any crowd • How game mechanics like deck-building and resource trading translate directly to real-world money decisions • What to look for when choosing games that work for both newbies and strategy enthusiasts • Why games teach financial lessons better than lectures—and how to use that with kids (or adults who need a refresh) • The surprising ways marketing, scarcity, and community building show up in tabletop games This Episode Is For You If: • You want to teach your kids about money in a way that doesn't feel like a lecture • You're looking for games that are actually fun but happen to build financial thinking • Your family game nights need an upgrade beyond Monopoly arguments • You're curious about board games but don't know where to start • You believe the best learning happens when you're having too much fun to notice you're learning What's Your Money Game? Drop your answer in the comments: What board game taught you a real money lesson, even if it wasn't trying to? Or if your financial personality were a board game, which one would it be? The basement wants to know—and we're always looking for new game recommendations.

Monopoly expert & author Matt Stoller joins public defender, author, civil rights lawyer, & founder of Civil Rights Corp, Alec Karatkatsanis, to hash out their online disagreements about the "defund the police" movement. Many lefty guests over the years have raised concerns with defund as a slogan or as a movement goal, but rarely do they have an opportunity to talk directly to an abolitionist and expert like Alec. This conversation represents a real step forward toward the goal better understanding why "defund" was chosen as a label, why defund doesn't necessitate a trade off with public safety, the importance of breaking from reformist movements of the past, and the root of why so many ideologically aligned people bristle at the slogan.   Subscribe to Bad Faith on YouTube for video of this episode.
