It got lost. Now it is back. This is the first episode we ever recorded in our new studio, a full crossover with Ninjas Are Butterflies, and we are dropping it from the archives to celebrate their 200th episode release. What follows is a full episode with the #1 Comedy Podcast in Barbados, recorded, buried, and recently recovered from the Blurry Creatures archives. In true NAB fashion, it's: Party shirts. A song written an hour before tape. A warning that the whole thing is about to get flagged. And the energy of five guys who clearly should not be allowed in a basement together. Josh, Andy, and Andrew join Blurry for a wide-ranging conversation that hits everything from Graham Hancock's Ancient Apocalypse to the megalithic mysteries of Peru and beyond. The crew digs into the connection between the Watchers of Genesis 6, the Book of Enoch, and the "enlightened travelers" Hancock describes. From there, we walk through a list of conspiracy theories that have been proven true, from the Tuskegee experiments and Operation Paperclip to MKUltra and Operation Northwoods, and we unpack what that track record means for the world we're living in now. The conversation lands on future predictions, transhumanism, Neuralink, the coming Great Deception, and why the peace of Christ is the only thing that holds when everything else is shaking. What was lost is now found, and an episode for the ages. Congrats on 200 episodes, NAB. This Episode is Sponsored By: http://blurrygold.com/ — Get a FREE Gold & Silver Kit while supplies last!

At NAB in Las Vegas, Alex Mavlios of Epidemic Sound explains how the company licenses music by acquiring full rights from artists, then offering secure usage across podcasts, video, social media, broadcast, and film. He addresses copyright risks, monetized content, artist royalties, pricing from creator plans to enterprise licenses, and why perpetual licensing helps creators avoid future rights disputes.

On the morning of 1st July 1916, as whistles blew along miles of the Somme front, the men of the III Corps and XV Corps rose from their trenches and walked into the centre of one of the most catastrophic days in British military history.In this second special episode of Old Front Line for the Somme 110th Anniversary, we focus on the brutal heart of the Somme battlefield, that stretch of scarred chalk downland running from the village of Ovillers, down through the fortress of La Boisselle, to the encircled ruins of Fricourt. This was the ground where some of the few remaining regulars alongside men of Kitchener's volunteer army, Tyneside Scots and Irishmen, Grimsby fishermen, South Yorkshire lads in the York & Lancs, and Green Howards among so many others, were sent against some formidable German positions on this central part of the Somme front of 1st July.The podcast follows the 8th Division into the killing ground of The Nab and Mash Valley at Ovillers, where German machine guns on three sides made survival almost impossible. We stand at the edge of the Lochnagar crater and trace the advance of the 34th Division, all twelve battalions committed at once, nothing held in reserve, as the Tyneside brigades marched in waves across open ground toward a village that was ready and waiting for them. And we examine the bitter fighting around Fricourt, where the 10th West Yorkshire Regiment suffered the single greatest British battalion casualty toll of any unit in on The First Day of the Somme.We end with a virtual walk across those battlefields today.Jonathan Porter's Somme Books: Zero Hour Z Day website.Main Image: Destroyed German trenches at Ovillers, looking towards Albert, July 1916.

Alan Lasky arrived at the AI XR Podcast straight from Las Vegas ahead of NAB. An MIT Media Lab graduate under Nicholas Negroponte, a veteran of Silicon Graphics and Amazon Web Services, and an advisor to investment banks on AI and media, he brings technical depth, industry history, and financial realism about where media is actually going.The conversation covers Hollywood's structural collapse, AI's role in the production renaissance, and the harder question of why trillion-dollar tech companies keep buying media businesses that can't generate comparable returns.Alan's answer: soft power. Amazon makes $950 million Lord of the Rings spinoffs so you order more paper towels. Apple is making Neuromancer. His five-year weighted moving average of Disney stock — flat from 2018 — makes the argument clean.AI XR News You Should Know: Artemis ignited a new space boom. Amazon acquired Global Star satellite to build Project Kuiper, a direct Starlink competitor. Apple's AI audio smart glasses are reportedly arriving this year per Mark Gurman at Bloomberg, entering a market where Meta owns the optometrist channel and Google is moving through Warby Parker. Snap laid off 15% while doubling down on the 2026 launch of Spectacles — the first see-through headset since Magic Leap.Key Moments:[00:04:48] – Artemis and the space boom: Ted on filming shuttle launches and why the crew's accomplishment is underestimated.[00:08:33] – Apple AI audio glasses: Rony's read from former Magic Leapers who designed them — if Apple gets this wrong, it's unforgivable.[00:12:00] – Snap's layoffs and the see-through gamble: can they compete with cheap AI audio glasses flooding the market?[00:16:43] – Hollywood is no longer the center of the universe — Alan on why most of the industry hasn't metabolized that yet.[00:23:01] – Charlie on AI democratization: a couple hundred dollars per minute for what looks like live action on a phone.[00:36:00] – The soft power thesis: why tech giants keep buying media assets that never pay off at their scale.[00:41:30] – Should Apple buy Disney? Charlie says Meta will do it first. Rony's reaction is immediate and visceral.[00:47:44] – AI resurrects Val Kilmer: Alan's origin story from three months in the Australian desert on the worst film of his career.Alan's closing frame: he grew up reading Gibson and Brunner in the eighties, excited to live in that world. He's in it. He's not sure he wanted it this way.This episode is sponsored by Zappar and Mattercraft — the leading visual development environment for immersive 3D web experiences, now with AI-assisted design and debug.

Todos escolhemos nossos caminhos pensando em alcançar segurança e estabilidade, todos precisamos delas. Muitas vezes nossas escolhas não produzem estes resultados, pelo contrário, ficamos em lugares perigosos. O problema é que, na maioria das vezes, estamos buscando no lugar errado, estamos fazendo escolhas erradas e , por isso, acabamos frustrados. O melhor caminho é sempre dar ouvidos à voz do Senhor que encontramos na Escritura Sagrada. Na Bíblia conhecemos a Deus, nosso Criador, e a Jesus, nosso Salvador. Seguir Jesus, obedecer a Palavra de Deus, é o caminho seguro.

Jan Werich říkal, že kdyby mohl žít Alois Jirásek v Hollywoodu, byl by velice úspěšným scénáristou. Měl absolutně skvělé dějové zápletky. Jako beletristovi mu to ale kazil archaický jazyk, kterým své zápletky vyprávěl. Ovšem Jirásek dokázal vytvořit „kanonický příběh“. Jeho líčení mělo silně dramatickou strukturu a bylo plné emocí. Nabídl jednoduchý a jasný začátek českého národa, srozumitelný příběh, minimum chaosu, konkrétní postavy místo anonymních procesů. To vše bylo ideální pro naši kolektivní paměť.Asi nejvíce ovlivnily naše chápání vlastní historie jeho Staré pověsti české, je to už 130 let jednou z nejvydávanějších knih. Asi nejvýraznější odkaz Starých pověstí českých je primordialismus, který si pořád neseme s sebou - tedy představa národa jako přirozeného společenství. Jsme přesvědčeni, že Češi nejsou náhoda, jsme tu odjakživa a z toho vyplývá velmi silná představa kontinuity.Husity Jirásek idealizoval jako bojovníky za pravdu a spravedlnost, pobělohorskou dobu zobrazoval jako morální i kulturní katastrofu, zdůrazňoval utrpení, oběť i hrdinství. Historie se tak v jeho pojetí nestala jen znalostí, ale součástí naší identity a našich emocí.Navíc přišel se svým dílem ve správný čas: v éře formování moderního národa a nabídl mu silný sdílený příběh, který je srozumitelný, hrdý a sjednocující v zobrazování minulosti. Jeho vyprávění je snadno zapamatovatelné, protože zjednodušuje složité historické procesy a vytváří jasné morální linie – husiti jsou dobří, rekatolizátoři zlí - a podobně. Právě tato jednoduchost pomohla masovému přijetí.
V Omeletkách si budeme povídat o jídle. Kamarádka nechtěla na obědě nic jíst ani pít. Když viděla moji kachnu, přivolala číšníka. „Já bych si taky dala ta prsa. A můžou být trošku větší, než má Halina.“ Nabídneme gastronomickou povídku Když šel táta na procházku aneb Mňam mňam tour. A hned tři recepty: tátovy pepřenky, zakarpatské brambory s brynzou a tvarohový koláč se zkaramelizovanými jahodami. Od posluchačky Aleny Nedomové uslyšíte příspěvek Hasič na zámku.

For the second hour of Stokely and Evans with Mark Schlereth, Stoke sends out birthday wishes before he holds Stink accountable for ditching him. Mike asks a question: are the Avs and Nuggets close to title contention based on what we’ve seen from the NAB and Stanley Cup Finals so far? The guys have a serious discussion about how a locker room and team handle an incident like Jonathan Cooper’s alleged domestic violence case. They recap a bad weekend from the Rockies before they discuss RJ’s Harvey heading into year 2. Can the sophomore RB break out in his second year? They wonder if Jarrett Stidham needs to look over his shoulder for Sam Ehlinger. They wrap up the second hour previewing tonight’s Game 3 in the NBA Finals.
LEITURA BÍBLICA DO DIA: GÊNESIS 35:1-5 PLANO DE LEITURA ANUAL: 2 CRÔNICAS 30–31; JOÃO 18:1-18 Já fez seu devocional hoje? Aproveite e marque um amigo para fazer junto com você! Confira: Alguns homens do meu grupo de estudo bíblico tinham quase 80 anos, e surpreendeu-me saber que lutavam contra a luxúria: uma batalha que travavam desde a juventude. Todos os dias comprometiam-se a seguir Jesus e pediam perdão por suas falhas. Não deveríamos nos chocar ao saber que pessoas piedosas ainda lutam contra desejos vis na fase avançada da vida. Um ídolo é tudo o que ameaça tomar o lugar de Deus em nossa vida, e eles podem aparecer mesmo após acharmos que sumiram. Na Bíblia, Jacó foi salvo de seu tio Labão e de seu irmão Esaú. Ele voltava para Betel para adorar a Deus e celebrar Suas muitas bênçãos, mas sua família ainda mantinha ídolos pagãos que Jacó precisou enterrar (GÊNESIS 35:2-4). Lemos também que, após os israelitas derrotarem seus inimigos e estabelecerem-se em Canaã, Josué ainda os orientava a jogar “fora os falsos deuses […] em seu meio e [voltar] o coração para o Senhor” (JOSUÉ 24:23). Aparentemente a esposa de Davi, Mical, guardava ídolos, pois colocou um em sua cama para enganar os soldados que vieram matá-lo (1 SAMUEL 19:11-16). Os ídolos são mais comuns do que pensamos, e Deus é mais paciente do que merecemos. Os desejos para voltarmos a eles virão, mas o perdão de Deus é maior. Que sejamos separados para Jesus, abandonemos nossos pecados e encontremos o perdão nele. Por: MIKE WITTMER

A former broker was charged this week with alleged involvement in the Penthouse Syndicate's mortgage fraud ring. The Adviser senior journalist Charlie Tchetchenian and commercial content writer Ben Squires uncover the latest in the mortgage fraud investigation and the ongoing work being done to stamp out criminal activity. The duo also review the fallout from the incoming negative gearing and CGT changes, looking at which lenders are moving quickly to strip negative gearing benefits from their serviceability calculators, and new dramatic projections warning of a sharp drop in investor activity. This week, they discuss: The major NSW Police update on the "Penthouse Syndicate" mortgage fraud investigation, which has seen a Sydney broker and bank manager arrested over tens of millions of dollars in fraudulent loans. How major lenders – including NAB, ANZ, Macquarie, and Suncorp – are rapidly updating their serviceability calculators to eliminate negative gearing benefits for established properties following the federal budget announcements. The federal court ordering Westpac to pay a $26 million penalty for repeatedly failing to properly process borrower hardship requests over a six-year period. And much more!

Netflix's live action take on the classic manga and animated series, One Piece, has been a massive, world wide success. For season 2, supervising sound editor Paul Col and re-recording mixer Gavin Fernades, were presented with an intimidating amount of audio challenges. A sword fight involving 100 enemies, bad guys that battle by turning into smoke, whales the size of buildings and lots more had to be given sounds built from scratch. This episode was recorded live as part of AirCon 26. ______ Tonebenders' host, Tim Muirhead, will be hosting and moderating a FREE screening of Independence Day to mark the films 30th anniversary. In attendance will be some of the original sound crew that worked on it. This will take place in Toronto, on July 6th, starting at 6pm at the Hot Docs Theatre.

“We're in a world surrounded by so much data and AI we can get lost in the noise of it all, and I've found that throughout my year as a performer, the amount of times people say to me, you know, your content is great, but your energy, your essence, your presence is what really makes us attracted to connecting with you…” Sarah Rowan Top Five Tips For Staying Human, Creative and Connected In 2026 1.

Where to find Sarah?Website https://artistsarahrowan.com/about/LinkedIn https://www.linkedin.com/in/artistsarahrowan/ Sarah Rowan Bio Sarah Rowan (who now goes by Rowan) is an artist and thought leader who empowers individuals and organizations to ignite a better future through creativity. As one of Australia's top Speed Painters, she has lived and breathed the dynamic process of transformation for over 20 years, turning blank walls and cavasses into thought-provoking pieces of art, with limited time and often in front of a live audience. Merging her artistic talent with her passion for public speaking, Rowan has reimagined the role of the artist, pushing the boundaries of a studio-based pursuit into a trail-blazing performance genre that challenges the limitations of time and space.After graduating from Converse College in 2003 with a BFA in Studio Art, Rowan started an art business in Greenville, South Carolina, USA before moving to Sydney to expand her horizons. It was here that she used the process of creative futurism to overcome depression, challenge chronic illness and create a new future for herself and her family. No longer shackled by societal norms, she has stepped into the full power of her truth personally and professionally.Rowan's strong emotional storytelling, along with her ability to paint fast and think fast has captivated hundreds of clients like Nestlé, ANZ, AMP, Ernst & Young, Woolworths, Sydney Airport, and Priceline. She has inspired audiences to embrace their own creativity which she believes is a “birthright to all” and to date has painted at over 600 events raising over $400,000 for charity.Other clients include: SAP, Netball World Cup, Salvation Army, Terry White Chemmart, YPO, City of Sydney, Commonwealth Bank, American Express, Doterra, Department of Defence, Mirvac, Australian College of Nursing, Liberty Finance, University of Sydney, NAB, ANZ, Dexus, Fastway Couriers, AUSCAM, Bombay Sapphire, International Canadian School Ho Chi Min City, etc.

One of the most watched films ever on Netflix is the recent Joe Carnahan directed action-thriller, The Rip. Key members of the sound team sat down with me at Formosa Hollywood to walk me down the path of the unique challenges this film presented them. From endless dog barking on set, to gun shots sounds that are huge, to a fun scene where they got to use ATMOS in a really special way. Supervising Sound Editor and Re-Recording Mixer Craig Mann is joined by Daniel Pagan (Supervising Sound Editor), Laura Wiest (Re-Recording Mixer) and Chase Keehn (Dial/ADR Supervisor) for this interesting deep dive into The Rip. ______SPONSORS: Sound Ideas had a great time at NAB this year, connecting with professionals across media, post-production, and broadcast. They launched a limited-time NAB Sale around the event, offering 50% off their catalog of professional sound effects libraries. This sale is available to everyone, whether you made it to NAB or not. Due to strong interest, that sale has now been extended for a limited time. So even though NAB has wrapped, there's still a chance to take advantage of the savings - but not for long. You can check out the extended sale at http://sound-ideas.com/ ________ If you are interested in field recording, you should know about the O-Mini P48 and the brand new O-Mini PIP miniature omni-directional electret microphones. Each one is hand made by Chris Trevino, a practicing field recordist, and a really engaged member of the sound community. He puts a lot of work into making and testing each mic to ensure they live up to his high standards. They are ultra-sonic capable, which makes manipulating your recordings with them a lot of fun. They are also extremely affordable. At $150us for the P48 & $130 for the PIP, they offer a lot of value for a stereo matched pair.

No Film School's Jourdan Aldridge sits down with Adobe's Jason Druss at NAB 2026 to discuss Adobe Premiere's new Color Mode, a three-year effort to rethink color grading for video editors. The conversation covers why Adobe rebuilt its color pipeline, how Color Mode differs from Lumetri and traditional pro-color tools, and what editors can expect from operations, styles, modules, film emulation, AI object masks, and upcoming beta features. Jason also shares his path from film school and color grading at NFL Films to product marketing at Blackmagic, Frame.io, and Adobe. In this episode, No Film School's Jourdan Aldridge and guest Jason Druss discuss... Adobe's major NAB 2026 focus: the public beta launch of Color Mode in Premiere Why Adobe built Color Mode as a pro-color system designed specifically for video editors The limitations of Lumetri and the challenges of round-tripping to dedicated color tools How Alexis Van Hurkman helped lead the creation of a new color grading workflow inside Premiere The role of private beta feedback from hundreds of working editors Jason Druss's career path through film school, wedding filmmaking, Blackmagic, NFL Films, WarnerMedia, Frame.io, and Adobe How Frame.io Drive connects with Premiere workflows and Adobe's NAB demo process The design philosophy behind Color Mode's simplified interface and shallow learning curve New Color Mode concepts including operations, styles, modules, clip groups, and sequence-level grading Film color, contrast kit, range controls, and customizable film emulation tools Why Adobe sees Color Mode as a new approach to creativity without unnecessary complexity Upcoming beta features including HSL qualifiers, skin tone lines, auto color, auto balance, vignette modules, and more film stocks Memorable Quotes: “What we're really trying to do is evolve and change the video editor's relationship with color and effects.” “For more than 10 years now, video editors have had two, like, really bad choices when it comes to color grading.” “We wanted to make the first color grading system ever actually built from the ground up and designed for video editors.” “Color mode rewards curiosity. It encourages experimentation. It's actually fun to use.” Guest: Jason Druss Find No Film School everywhere: On the Web: No Film School Facebook: No Film School on Facebook Twitter: No Film School on Twitter YouTube: No Film School on YouTube Instagram: No Film School on Instagram
