Bruce Willis, Helen Mirren, John Malkovich, and Morgan Freeman prove that being Retired, Extremely Dangerous doesn't mean slowing down. In this episode of Moving Panels, Laramy Wells and cohost Tim Williams dive into the 2010 action-comedy Red — exploring how a dark, three-issue Warren Ellis comic turned into a high-octane, star-studded blockbuster. They break down the cast, the comic book origins, the over-the-top action (yes, even the Mythbusters-tested scenes), and why this adaptation still deserves a place in your collection.

If you've been researching family history for any length of time, you've probably heard someone say, “Well, the trail stops with the immigrant ancestor. Once you hit the ocean, you can't go any further.” This idea is one of the most persistent myths in genealogy. Many people stop at the ancestor who stepped off the ship, resigned to the belief that records from “the old country” are too hard to find, inaccessible, or simply don't exist. At first glance, the myth makes sense. Immigration records can be patchy. Language barriers are intimidating. Foreign archives may seem distant and mysterious. For years, genealogists accepted the idea that you could trace your family back to the arrival in America, Canada, or Australia, and no further. But here's the truth: genealogy doesn't end at the ocean. The ocean is not a wall — it's a bridge. With patience, persistence, and the right tools, you can cross it. Today, countless records from Europe, Africa, Asia, and South America are available in digital form. Archives are more accessible than ever. And local experts around the world are helping researchers trace their families across borders...

In 1993, French engineer Émile Leray's Citroën 2CV broke down in the middle of the Moroccan desert. Stranded without any way to call for help, he dismantled the vehicle and rebuilt it into a working motorcycle. For twelve days and nights he lived in the stripped shell of the car  and ate what rations he had while piecing the machine together- to attempt to ride it back to civilization and save himself. Thank you, everyone, for the love you have shown us and Marooned over the past two years.

In recent years, DNA testing has become one of the hottest tools in genealogy. It promises quick answers to old questions, colorful charts that tell you your ethnic breakdown, and even lists of genetic cousins you never knew you had. For many researchers, DNA has been a game-changer. It has reunited families, broken through long-standing mysteries, and added a powerful new dimension to traditional research. But with all that excitement comes a myth: the belief that DNA testing will solve every brick wall. Many people assume that if you just spit in a tube, all of your genealogical puzzles will untangle themselves. That simply isn't true. DNA is powerful, but it is not magic. It has limits, and those limits matter. In this essay, we'll look at why this myth exists, where DNA really shines, where it struggles, and how you can use it wisely as one tool in a larger toolkit...

Episode 95: Myth Busters – Social Security Edition (Part 1)Episode OverviewIn this episode of One for the Money, we take on one of the most misunderstood areas of retirement planning: Social Security. Despite being around for 90 years, myths and misinformation still lead people to make costly mistakes—sometimes losing hundreds of thousands of dollars in lifetime benefits.This is Part 1 of our Social Security Myth Busters series, where we'll tackle two of the most common myths about claiming benefits. In addition, the Tips, Tricks, & Strategies segment covers an often-overlooked opportunity with spousal and ex-spousal benefits.What You'll LearnWhy Social Security is such a critical piece of retirement incomeThe true costs of claiming early at age 62 versus waiting until full retirement age or age 70Why the fear of Social Security “running out” is misleadingThe most likely fixes to secure the program's long-term futureA strategy for spousal and ex-spousal benefits that can add unexpected valueMyth #1: You should take Social Security at 62 because it's available.Claiming early reduces benefits by about 30% for life.Waiting until 67—or even better, 70—can increase lifetime benefits dramatically.Delaying acts like a guaranteed 6–8% return per year, something most investors can't match consistently.Early filing penalties apply if you're still working.Myth #2: Social Security is going to run out.While the trust fund is projected to deplete by 2034, payroll taxes will still fund about 80% of benefits.Likely adjustments—raising the income cap, modest tax increases, or raising the retirement age—are far more probable than eliminating benefits.We've faced this before, and reforms extended the program by decades. History suggests the same will happen again.Tips, Tricks, & Strategies Segment: The Ex-FilesDivorced after a marriage that lasted 10 years or more? You may qualify for ex-spousal benefits—up to 50% of your former spouse's benefit, or your own, whichever is greater. Your ex won't be notified, and their benefits won't be reduced. With the right documentation, this strategy can meaningfully improve your retirement income.Episode Highlights & Quotes“Claiming Social Security early isn't just a smaller check for a few years—it's smaller for life.”“Delaying benefits is the closest thing to a guaranteed return most retirees will ever see.”“The idea that Social Security will ‘run out' is a myth. Adjustments will be made, just as they have in the past.”“Sometimes, the best retirement strategy from a marriage comes long after it ends.”Planning Your Next StepsIf you're unsure about when to claim Social Security, don't guess—or rely on casual advice.

Many of us grow up hearing stories about our family's background. Maybe your grandmother insisted her side of the family was “pure Irish.” Or perhaps your grandfather proudly declared that his ancestors were “completely German, no mixture at all.” In some households, there is even the belief that one particular ancestor was “full-blooded Cherokee,” “100 percent Scottish,” or “pure Italian.” These stories are often told with pride. They give families a sense of identity and belonging. But when we hold them up to the light of history and genealogy, a different picture emerges. The idea that an ancestor was “100 percent” one ethnicity is rarely true, and it is almost never as simple as the stories make it sound. The myth of pure ethnicity is powerful because it speaks to human longing. People like neat boxes and clear categories. We want to know where we come from. We want to say, with confidence, “My ancestors were entirely Irish,” or “We have nothing but German blood.” The problem is, history is messy, borders change, and people have always moved, married, and mixed. This time, we are going to explore why the myth of pure ethnicity exists, where it came from, how DNA testing complicates it, and what the records really show. By the end, you'll see that your ancestors, like everyone else's, were part of a long story of blending, migration, and mixing. And that makes your family history far more interesting than the myth of “100 percent” purity.

The latest episode of the Georgia Tech Research Podcast brings together two leaders from the Human Centered Engineering Division (HCED) at the Georgia Tech Research Institute (GTRI): Dr. Theresa Kessler, branch head of the Human Performance Branch, and Stuart Michelson, associate division chief. Together, they break down common misconceptions about human factors, explaining how careful attention to human-system interaction can save time, money, and even lives. They explain why trust is not the ultimate goal, why manpower, personnel, and training studies are critical, why UX/UI is more than attractive interfaces, and why human systems integration must be treated as foundational.

One of the most tempting shortcuts in genealogy is the idea of the “master family tree.” A single, giant, authoritative tree where everyone is already linked, all the names and dates are correct, and all you have to do is plug your family into the right spot. You'll hear this myth from new researchers, see it implied in online ads, and sometimes even find it in casual conversations: “Isn't there one big tree somewhere that already has all of this figured out?” It's a nice idea. Imagine logging in, clicking a few buttons, and instantly tracing your family back ten generations. But here's the truth: a flawless, universal master tree does not exist, and probably never will. That doesn't mean there aren't shared trees online. It just means they are often riddled with errors, duplications, and contradictions. Today, we'll dig into where the myth came from, how shared trees can be both helpful and dangerous, and what you should do instead to build a reliable family history.

The internet has changed genealogy forever. A few clicks can uncover census records, passenger lists, or even digitized newspapers that once took months of travel and library time to access. Companies like Ancestry, FamilySearch, and MyHeritage have built enormous databases. Google can even surface obscure family references. With so much at our fingertips, it's easy to believe the myth: “All of genealogy is online now.” But here's the truth: while the internet is an incredible tool, the majority of genealogical records are still not online. Many live in courthouse basements, small-town libraries, church archives, or dusty boxes in county offices. Some will never be digitized. If you rely only on online databases, you'll miss out on huge parts of your family story. Let's explore why this myth is so common, what's really available online, and how to push your research further by going offline...

Myth Busters: The Truths Your Marriage Needs :: [Ep. 287]This week, we expose common marriage myths that contradict biblical truth, challenging listeners to build marriages on God's design rather than cultural expectations.We will cover the following:• Online advice often seeks to validate decisions we've already made rather than offer true biblical guidance• Marriage isn't meant to be 50-50 but 100-100, with both spouses giving completely as Christ did• Feelings of being "in love" naturally fluctuate; the key is pleasing Jesus first, not demanding validation from your spouse• Children won't save a troubled marriage; fix your foundation before expanding your family• Kids need to see not just conflict resolution but also forgiveness and grace modeled in your marriage• Being on mission together for God's kingdom creates stronger bonds than pursuing personal happinessWe pray you are helped and encouraged!! Support the showFor episode transcripts, click HERE.For more marriage encouragement, visit: www.VowsToKeep.com | V2K Blog | Marriage Counseling | Insta | FBApple Podcast listener?

For genealogists, the census is like a treasure chest. Those big sheets of names, ages, occupations, and birthplaces are often the first stop when we start tracing a family tree. They feel official, stamped with the authority of the government, and that makes them seem ironclad. But here's the myth we need to bust: the census is not always correct. Yes, census records are invaluable. They offer details you won't find anywhere else. But they are also full of quirks, errors, contradictions, and missing information. If you take every line at face value, you could easily chase the wrong ancestor or miss the right one altogether. The good news? Once you understand why the census is imperfect—and how to work with those imperfections—you'll unlock its real power as a genealogical tool. Let's dive deep into this myth, explore why mistakes happened, and discover how to read between the lines.

Ovviamente non siamo noi (perché non sbagliamo mai), ma i Mythbusters, perché questa puntata nasce proprio da un loro errore.

Have you ever heard a family story that sounds just a little too good to be true? Maybe it's the tale of a “Cherokee princess” somewhere in your tree. Or maybe a great-aunt swore that your family is connected to European royalty. These are two of the most popular legends in genealogy, and they've been told so many times that they start to feel like fact. Here's the truth: Native tribes didn't have “princesses,” and most family lines don't secretly lead back to kings and queens. Still, these stories stick around because they're exciting, a little glamorous, and they give us a sense of pride. That doesn't mean your family history isn't fascinating—it just means the real story might be very different than the legend. And honestly, that's where the fun begins. In this article, we'll look at where these myths came from, why they've lasted so long, and how you can check the facts for yourself...

Family stories have a way of becoming family legends, and one of the most common you'll hear in genealogical circles is this: “Our ancestor came through Ellis Island, and the clerks changed the family name because they couldn't spell it.” It's dramatic, almost cinematic. Imagine the scene—ships crowding New York Harbor, weary travelers clutching suitcases, and an impatient official scribbling down a “new” surname that forever altered the family's story. But here's the reality: Ellis Island clerks did not change names. The truth is both less theatrical and more interesting, because it says something important about how myths form, how families adapt, and where the real records are hiding...

Send us a textEvery day's a Saturday.That's one of those great retirement sayings.What it means is you get to do what you want, when you want.After thirty years of being told where to be, when to be, and how to be, it's very liberating.My wife was at work and I had finished all of the little chores I wanted to get done around the house. I sat down and fired up the streaming services. I was looking for a little movie I could put on and probably take a nap. My search stopped on “The Fastest Woman on Earth”That put a twist in my afternoon plans.“The Fastest Woman on Earth” is a 2022 documentary about Jesse Combs, her quest to break the woman's land speed record, and her ultimate death.I was familiar with Jesse Combs, I had watched her in a number of television shows over the years, specifically “Overhaulin” and “Mythbusters”. I also enjoy documentaries so clicking play was a no brainer.I started crying about 5 minutes into the film and couldn't stop crying the rest of the afternoon.As cops we get very good at compartmentalizing trauma. When we deal with all of those horrible thing's day in and day out, we put them behind a door, lock it tight, and throw away the key.Something in that movie opened one of those doors for me and let it all out.It was a rough afternoonBut it would have been rougher if I didn't understand what was going on with me.[Insert Intro]Mental Health for Law Enforcement is an issue that we still fight today. Even though we should know better, we still stigmatize getting help. We still want to portray ourselves and our profession as stoic, strong, and above those emotions.We are not.I wanted to talk to an officer who had experience dealing with mental health issues, someone who understood the problem and was willing to deal with it head on.That's when I connected with Zachary Saenz.Zachary has over 8 years in law enforcement and has served as a patrol officer, field training officer, and now is a patrol sergeant.  He is an advocate for mental health in law enforcement and his story is an important one to hear.

MYTHBUSTERS - why can't you use your phone at the petrol station? ⛽️

Okay, lets you and him fight! In shameless pursuit of ‘brand synergy,' this episode of Casual Trek celebrates the return of Strange New Worlds to our streaming services by doing an episode about those lizardy bastards Kirk fought once at those rocks from Bill and Ted's Bogus Journey, the Gorn! In ‘Arena,' Kirk fights a string vest wearing space lizard while Spock watches and provides inane commentary (hey Spock-o, that's OUR job) and then in the Strange New Worlds Season 2 finale and Season 3 opener ‘Hegemony Parts 1 and 2' Pike spends more time hiding and less time building rudimentary cannons, Spock and Chapel play a little Alien Isolation and Ortegas loses herself in the job… Bogus. Episodes discussed: Arena (07:20) and Hegemony Parts 1 and 2 (38:27)Talking Points include: American Family Reunions, Donkey Kong Bananza, young Tom Jones is weird looking and The Monkees are great, Oh no not another Godlike being, Vasquez Rocks, everyone got tinnitus making this episode, Charlie's time as a scout, Miles has a legitimate reason to bring up ‘Blake's 7,' they tried to build the cannon on Mythbusters… it did not go well, we're not Trying That in a Small Town but we finally listen to The Mountain Goats for the show! Pike's brief moment of religious crisis is weird, Strange New Worlds' making the Gorn so monstrous clashes with how it went down in ‘Arena', Alien Isolation, the nature of ‘Good' and ‘Evil' members of various Star Trek races and how the idea the Gorn might be biologically evil might not be a great look for Trek.

What are some of the big hockey cliches or NHL myths that aren't accurate? What have we grown up to accept as fact but is simply not true?

On this episode of Little Talks, we tackle four common B2B marketing myths and set the record straight.First up is the idea that gated content is the only way to generate leads. While putting valuable resources behind a form can work, the hosts explain that leaning on it too heavily can actually shrink your audience and hurt your brand authority. Mixing in ungated assets—like blog posts, videos, and podcasts—helps build trust, position you as a thought leader, and keep you visible in search results. When people already trust you, they're much more likely to say “yes” to that form later.Next, the conversation turns to the misconception that social media is only for B2C brands. In reality, social platforms are just as powerful for B2B—but the playbook is different. LinkedIn shines for thought leadership and networking, while Instagram and even TikTok can spotlight your brand personality and show off your company culture. It's about shifting the mindset from pushing sales to offering help, sparking conversation, and making genuine connections.The third myth challenges the old-school notion that the marketing funnel is a straight line from awareness to purchase. Today's buyer journey is more like a messy web, with people jumping between research, peer recommendations, and direct vendor contact. That's why an omni-channel approach is so important—your brand should be ready to add value at every possible touchpoint, not just at a “stage” in the process.Finally, Sam and Roop address vanity metrics. Sure, likes, followers, and views don't directly equal revenue, but that doesn't mean they're useless. Think of them as your marketing “check engine light”—a signal that your content is connecting with your audience. When a post gets attention, that's your cue to build on the momentum and channel that engagement into more measurable business results.And join us next week for Claudia and Roop's HubSpot INBOUND 25 preview!—Sam, Roop, Claudia and ChelseaTell us what you think!

In tonight's dead letter, listener Jerri-Kay recounts a story from her childhood when her mother witnessed multiple shadow figures entering their bedroom in broad daylight. Later that night, while seemingly half-asleep, when her mom enters her room she yells that she's not her mother and points to lights that only she can see in the room, leaving the family shaken and searching for answers.
