Data centers are a booming business, and their rapid expansion is being felt across industries. On today's show, we're taking a look at two. In some regions of the country, big tech is buying up a lot of land to build data centers. Reporter Will Parker explains why some developers and homeowners aren't happy. Plus, Heard on the Street columnist Jinjoo Lee tells us how every engine of the economy is getting recruited into the fight for AI dominance—and that includes ones made for jets.

We start off fighting with a cheap plastic recorder that won’t cooperate and complaining about all the trash showing up now that the snow is melting. Then things take a hard turn when we talk about the morning we found a stranger sitting on our living room couch at 5:30 AM. That moment changes how we see our own habits. Leaving the doors unlocked used to feel normal, even harmless. After that morning, it feels careless, and we end up installing an auto-locking digital system. One unexpected person on a couch is enough to turn a casual routine into a security upgrade. From there, we wander into some childhood memories—like techniques for flattening hamsters and lizards. It’s uncomfortable and a little funny in hindsight, but mostly it’s about how small mistakes had very real results. We also talk about AI, comparing it to a nervous friend who sounds confident but gets things wrong. That leads us into a debate about the tangled timeline in Primer and how some kids somehow guess the twist in The Sixth Sense right away. We wrap up by unpacking why hearing “you did your best” can feel like a quiet insult—like the recorder that won’t play right, the door that now locks itself, and the headlamp shining on a problem we didn’t want to see.

On episode 253, we welcome Christopher Mathias to discuss the meaning of fascism and what ANTIFA is, fascism's ideological roots in greed and domination, the Charlottesville protests, fascist masking and the threat of being charmed by appearances, whether we owe it to fascism to allow for open debates, whether fascists care about finding the truth, if it's possible to differentiate between conservatives and fascists at this point, and why members of ANTIFA would disagree with being labeled extremists. Christopher Mathias is a journalist covering the far right. Previously a senior reporter at HuffPost, he's done work for the Guardian, MSNBC, Zeteo, and WNYC. His reporting chronicled the rapid radicalization of the GOP, and has helped unmask white supremacist cops, soldiers, teachers, and politicians. Mathias was a Deadline Awards finalist for feature writing. His new book, available now, is called To Catch a Fascist: The Fight to Expose the Radical Right. | Christopher Mathias | ► Twitter | https://x.com/letsgomathias ► Bluesky | https://bsky.app/profile/letsgomathias.bsky.social ► To Catch a Fascist Book | https://amzn.to/3OaBNJj Where you can find us: | Seize The Moment Podcast | ► Facebook | https://www.facebook.com/SeizeTheMoment ► Twitter | https://twitter.com/seize_podcast ► Instagram | https://www.instagram.com/seizethemoment ► TikTok | https://www.tiktok.com/@seizethemomentpodcast  

The machinery to enable Stephen Miller's darkest deportation dreams is both tangible and legal. In this week's show, Dahlia Lithwick explores the statutory and regulatory foundations of the Trump administration's expanding network of detention camps, plus the historical background of the vast warehouse system they are using to imprison tens of thousands of migrants. First, she speaks with Linus Chan, who represents Minnesotans detained by ICE, he teaches law at the University of Minnesota School of Law. Chan describes how the most basic right of habeas corpus has been whittled away by the courts to a filament when it comes to immigration law, allowing the federal government to weaponize brutal detention against ordinary Americans. Next, Dahlia is in conversation with Andrea Pitzer, about her chilling and urgent new piece, Building the camps: The warehouseification of detention and initial thoughts on stopping it. It is essential reading (and listening!) in light of the billion dollar detention camp system being built in warehouses near you in cities around the nation. If you want to check if your town is on the list, Andrea recommends checking out Project Salt Box.Want more Amicus? Join Slate Plus to unlock weekly bonus episodes with exclusive legal analysis.

Pithy quotes "We do our job well if the homeowner forgets about us, because the system just works." "The bar is so low in some homes that doing a quality install can genuinely change someone's life." "The best way to learn is crawling in the crawl space behind a great technician and handing them tools." Semi-famous quote that fits our theme "Stay hungry, stay foolish." © Steve Jobs Shreyas Sudhakar joined the Building HVAC Science podcast to talk about his path from rocket propulsion engineering to building high-quality heat pump installs in California. Bill and Eric found him through his thoughtful LinkedIn posts, and Shreyas shared that a friend's relentless heat-pump evangelism finally pushed him to look deeper. Once he did, the tech clicked. He realized HVAC and rockets share the same core idea: moving energy through systems, and the math is not as far apart as it sounds. What really pulled him in was the homeowner experience. After talking with homeowners on Nextdoor and Reddit, and even calling contractors for quotes himself, he kept hearing the same frustrations: heat pumps feel expensive, contractor advice is inconsistent, trust is low, and myths like "heat pumps don't work in the cold" still show up, even in mild California climates. Shreyas' view is simple: most homeowners do not care what the equipment is called. They care about comfort, noise, bills, and safety, and the best outcome is when the system is so reliable they barely think about it. Shreyas now runs Vayu, a lean heat pump installation company operating with vetted subcontractor partners, while his Heat Pumped newsletter and podcast focus on education for homeowners, technicians, and policy folks. Vayu handles the end-to-end process, from load sizing and equipment selection to permits and rebates, while partner shops focus on the craft of installation. His definition of success is not just a happy install day, but a customer still loving the system a decade later, and technicians thriving because the model removes desk work and supports quality work at scale.

We started by talking about our musical instruments, which we loved deeply in theory and stored carelessly in reality, proving that passion and maintenance are not the same skill set. In high school we somehow managed to be both band kids and athletes, demonstrating that blowing into brass and colliding with linebackers can coexist as long as no one asks too many questions. We treated our instruments like priceless treasures while also leaving them in car trunks during temperature swings that would alarm a meteorologist. Naturally this led us to celebrity culture, where authenticity is expected to be spontaneous but professionally managed at all times. We used Kid Rock as an example, mostly because nothing says “quiet spiritual reflection” like stadium lighting and pyrotechnics. We discussed how celebrities are supposed to represent their faith publicly, but only in ways that don’t inconvenience their brand managers. We wrestled with the idea that when a famous person talks about Christianity, we immediately suspect a marketing strategy, yet when they don’t talk about it, we suspect cowardice, which is a terrific system. Wealth came up, because apparently following Jesus is simple until your house has more square footage than the New Testament. We examined how fame turns every belief into a press release and every doubt into a headline. Hollywood, of course, typecasts everyone, including people who are just trying to have a thought, which makes it difficult to be a nuanced human when you’ve already been labeled “The Faith Guy.” We reflected on interviews, where the goal is often to sound natural while answering pre-approved questions in a room full of lighting equipment. In the end we concluded that genuine conversation is surprisingly rare, mostly because it involves two people talking without a script, which in modern media qualifies as reckless behavior.

Could ancient Romans really talk to the dead—and did they build a device to help them do it? In this episode of The Box of Oddities, Kat and Jethro tumble headfirst into one of archaeology's strangest unsolved mysteries: the Roman dodecahedron. These small bronze objects—covered in holes, studded with knobs, and found almost exclusively in frontier regions of the Roman Empire—have baffled historians for centuries. No instructions. No records. No explanation. Just geometry… and silence. We explore a growing theory that these objects weren't tools or toys at all, but ritual devices used for necromancy. Drawing from documented Roman practices—curse tablets, grave rituals, offerings to the dead—we examine how light, fire, human remains, and sacred geometry may have combined to create controlled states of altered perception. Not summoning ghosts exactly… but thinning the veil just enough. From Plato's cosmic geometry to the eerie absence of these artifacts in Rome itself, the clues point toward forbidden practices quietly carried out on the edges of empire—where Roman order collided with older Celtic beliefs about the dead being nearby, accessible, and occasionally helpful. Along the way, the episode drifts (as it always does) into unexpected territory: midnight peanut-butter trauma, the strange comfort of reincarnated pets, and a surprisingly deep dive into how humans have measured time—from candle clocks and cow milkings to Planck time and absurdly large cosmic units. Because when you start talking about death, you inevitably end up talking about time… and how little of it we feel we have. It's a conversation about ancient fears, forbidden knowledge, and the unsettling possibility that some things were never written down because they worked just well enough to scare people into silence. Fly your freak flag proudly—and maybe don't peer too deeply into glowing bronze objects near a grave. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

To hear more, visit smokeempodcast.substack.com“I had started out determined to learn about Amanda, but as more people contacted me wanting to talk, it was Jason they wished to talk about.” - from To the Bridge, A True Story of Motherhood and Murder*This 7th installment of “The Sociopaths Among Us” is about the person who put me I mind to do the series in the first place. His name is Jason Smith, and he is the father of the two children his estranged wife, Amanda Stott-Smith, dropped from Portland's Sellwood Bridge shortly after 1am on May 23, 2009. Amanda was arrested later that same day, a story I partially tell you in the audio (and fully in the book).Walking into a story like this, one knows nothing other than one's own and others' preconceived notions. In the case of a mother who kills a child, these notions run from evil to crazy and not much more. Neither answered for me why Amanda did what she did.It can also be the case, in stories like this, that the real story, or stories, reveal themselves slowly. You can charge directly at it all you like and you are not going to get it. But if you wait, and you listen…In the audio you will hear how people started coming to me with stories about Jason Smith, he was not the man he presented himself to be, they said; that he was very, very good at what he did, and what he did was practice deception.“He could sell ice to an Eskimo, he could sell you the dream,” I was told by the man who'd thought of Jason as his best friend, a thought the man had, by the time he called me, been thoroughly disabused of. I have written before of the sociopath's terrific and terrible talent of being able make you feel as though you ‘get' him as others do not. They spin webs of so, so, so many, lies that eventually catch up with them. They do not register the damage they leave in their wake, or not as something they should care about, and by the time people realize what has happened, the sociopath is onto the next person or situation from which he can gain sustenance. From To the Bridge:“We become grist for the sociopath's mill, in other words; we become his fuel. Dr. Hervey Cleckley, in his seminal work on the psychopathic personality, The Mask of Sanity, posited that what sociopaths lack is ‘soul quality.' Another work I came across called sociopaths “soul eaters of Psychophagic.' Reading this, I pictured Goya's painting Saturn Devouring His Son and considered the idea that sociopaths must feed on others because they lack souls of their own.”Consider what this consumption can do to others.I can understand someone wondering right about now why I do not have more sympathy for Jason Smith, who after all lost his four-year son. Read on… * To the Bridge is a"Kindle Exclusive Deal" this month. If you grab it, let me know what you think.

We covered a lot of ground in this conversation, which is another way of saying we wandered bravely from topic to topic with the confidence of people who believe curiosity is a form of planning. It started with musical dreams, which immediately ran into taxes, because nothing crushes artistic ambition faster than discovering the government would also like a solo. From there we examined the mysterious phenomenon of celebrity wealth, which turns out to be mostly an illusion created by sunglasses, confidence, and someone else paying for lunch. Naturally this led us to government conspiracies, because once you realize famous people don’t have as much money as you think, it’s only a short hop to assuming someone is hiding something. We discussed survival skills for the collapse of society, a scenario everyone is very confident about despite having trouble assembling IKEA furniture. The Doomsday Clock came up, which is reassuring because it’s good to know the end of the world is being managed by people who own a clock. We also talked about zombies, because every serious discussion eventually circles back to zombies, the one apocalypse we’ve fully rehearsed thanks to television. Along the way we touched on personal health journeys, which mostly involve learning what foods now hate us, and food preferences, which are deeply emotional and should never be questioned. Black pepper emerged as a cultural force, gold mining as an economic mystery, and hibernation as an underutilized lifestyle choice for anyone tired of the news. In the end, the conversation proved that modern life is complicated, confusing, and possibly ending soon, but at least we can laugh about it while seasoning our food aggressively and considering a long nap.

Sophia Contreras Schwartz, General Counsel at Nextdoor, discusses her unique journey of building a legal department from the ground up. Sophia discusses how her background as a musician and fitness instructor informs her collaborative leadership style and why Nextdoor identifies as "Middle Tech"—a category of companies often overlooked by one-size-fits-all regulations. The conversation explores the strategic value of hiring Legal Operations early, the specific tech stack that keeps a lean team of eight efficient, and why "versatility and curiosity" are the most important traits for in-house counsel today. Key Takeaways: The First Legal Hire: Companies should consider their first GC when they start generating significant revenue or enter highly regulated spaces. "Middle Tech" Challenges: Nextdoor faces unique regulatory hurdles, like age verification laws, which are often designed for "Big Tech" giants but create significant operational burdens for mid-sized platforms. Force Multipliers: Investing in Legal Ops early allows a small team to scale by focusing on process design and vendor management rather than just manual intake. AI as a Strategist: Using tools like GC.AI doesn't just speed up drafting; it helps in-house lawyers ask better questions of their outside counsel by identifying nuances that general AI might miss.

In the debut episode of The Economist Next Door, host Paul Mueller (Senior Research Fellow at AIER) sits down with Samuel Gregg, President of the American Institute for Economic Research, to peel back the layers of modern economic debate. Moving beyond the dry jargon of spreadsheets and data points, Mueller and Gregg explore why the battle for free markets has shifted from a technical argument to a deeply moral one. They discuss the rising tide of "collectivism" appearing on both ends of the political spectrum and why the "everyman" should care about the philosophical foundations of trade, sound money, and individual liberty.

We're knee deep into #FANuary where you have picked the movies we watch and this week we take a turn towards the serious.  Seriously hunky guys, we mean.  Actually, one seriously hunky guy that is NOT afraid to take his shirt off wherever and whenever he likes.  We're talking about Maxwell Caulfield and also the 1985's THE BOYS NEXT DOOR which also stars some guy named Charlie Sheen who was never in anything else.  THE BOYS NEXT DOOR follows Roy (Maxwell Caulfield) and Bo (Charlie Sheen) who travel from someplace 6 hours away from Hollywood for a weekend of parties and murder.  There's a lot more murder than parties.  In fact, the only party they attend is at in their home town.  Regardless, Roy and Bo find that life in Hollywood is hard.  You have to pay before you pump gas, you have to be 21 to order alcohol at a bar and taking up two spots with your car is practically is not seen kindly by the locals.For this episode, we're joined by Ryan Verrill, host of The Disc Connected podcast and the Executive Director of Someone's Favorite Productions Podcast Network.  In addition to discussing the movie, Ryan is also giving us our annual reviews.  He will be sending out a peer review survey to all of our listeners, and we really, really hope you'll put in a good word for us.  Please and thank you.In addition to receiving our reviews, we discuss what makes a good party, 1980's gas prices and the unjust response to Grease 2.  This episode has everything.

We kicked things off by butchering the Jaws theme on plastic recorders—which we’ve decided are essentially musical sewer pipes—before pivoting to the high-brow realization that physics is actually God’s art museum and humans are just the ones writing the placards.We spent a good chunk of time roasting Hollywood for its recycled plots, rebranding Jaws as the "ultimate fishing film" and realizing Avatar is just a blue-tinted Fern Gully where the characters use their tails as universal adapters. Our nostalgia took us back to the glory days of mastering the "tripod" head-prop to nap in geometry class without face-planting, a skill far more useful than our Gen X school fundraisers involving "high-quality" trash bags and overpriced wrapping paper. To wrap up, we lamented the fact that taking a sick chicken to an exotic vet costs $250—proving yogurt is the only affordable healthcare for poultry—and left everyone on a spicy cliffhanger regarding our upcoming deep-dive into the scandalous world of black pepper.

We didn't plan what we would talk about before we hit "record." But, is that such a bad thing? We've been having some tech troubles with our poor Rodecaster recorder...AND: the Peaches also struggled with some "helpful" AI software, making unauthorized changes to her drama club script. (But it didn't meeeeeean to do it!)THEN: Luke has been reading a book about saying "no" more often, in order to say "yes" to what truly matters. The book seems to be full of great advice, so of course the Peaches and John have to be a little bit contrarian about the whole thing...So what about you, Neighbor? Do you struggle with feeling like you can just work HARDER in order to please everybody? OR are you more of a contrarian yourself? Email the Comedian's family at nextdoor@johnbranyan.com

Something was wrong long before anyone realized why.It began with the feeling of being watched—of routines noticed, of attention lingering too long. After that, the house itself seemed to react. Sounds carried intent. Movements felt deliberate. Even silence became charged, like something was waiting for a response.There were moments that crossed a line from strange into personal. A presence close enough to whisper. Objects that didn't fall so much as aim. An animal reacting before any human could.And then there was the way things mimicked the living—voices that sounded familiar, doors that opened without reason, and signs left behind that suggested something had entered… but never left.No answers were offered. No single explanation fit. Only the growing sense that whatever was there wanted acknowledgment—and wasn't finished making itself known.#RealGhostStoriesOnline #TrueParanormal #HauntedTownhouse #CreepyNeighbor #PoltergeistActivity #MimicEntity #ParanormalEncounter #GhostVoice #UnexplainedFootprints Love real ghost stories?

In this lively conversation, we explore a wide range of topics, from musical mishaps to the surprisingly high-stakes experience of ordering food at Panera Bread. We share humorous anecdotes about lunch plans, the stress of menu choices, and we dive into Southern food traditions along the way. The discussion shifts to the value of silver and gold, prompting us to engage in a light-hearted debate about the usefulness of chickens in an apocalyptic scenario. A wild story about chasing down a stolen pool filter adds to the fun, eventually leading us to reflect on Southern expressions and common misconceptions. In the same engaging spirit, we explore the unique identity of Jacksonville, Florida, talking about its reputation, outdoor activities, sports culture, and sharing humorous anecdotes. We delve into the appeal of marshes and nature, the art of discovering sticks, and we offer playful reflections on life in Jacksonville, all while keeping a consistent comedic tone throughout.
