Welcome, Neighbor! We had a busy weekend full of theater-performances-- so let's talk about celebrity performers. Which was the first band that John took his girlfriend (now wife) to see? And which posters did the Peaches have on her wall? THEN: John likes Comedian Jim Breuer, but also he's worried about him. Jim is funny, but he might be a conspiracy nut...we're not sure. And also, he might be right about the fact that FEAR is a terrible master. LATER: Somebody should tell Jim that The System has already been dismantled by Christ. Hallelujah!

In this episode, we're joined by Toby Hopp, Associate Professor in Advertising and Public Relations at CU Boulder, to discuss a fascinating study on the impact of social media on our perceptions of crime. The research, published in News, Media and Society, explores how using the Nextdoor app can heighten feelings of safety concerns and support for aggressive policing. We dive into the study's findings, the parallels with traditional news reporting, and the potential consequences of misinformation on our communities. Join us as we explore the complex relationship between social media, crime, and our perceptions of reality.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
In this episode, we dive into the complexities of the Iran war and its impact on the global market. Ross and Jeana discusses the recent developments in the Strait of Hormuz, including the US Navy's decision not to escort tankers, despite President Trump's claims that the war is "completely over." Ross also explores the economic implications of the tariffs imposed by the Trump administration and the ongoing lawsuit against the government to refund the money. Additionally, we touch on the topic of voter ID laws and the Save Act, and hear from a guest expert on the intersection of geopolitics and the US-Israel relationship.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

With Juan DeVevo, Luke, and John Branyan, we trade stories about moles, possums, and the other critters that turn a backyard into an ongoing problem. We compare practical ways people try to deal with them, from pest control ideas to half-serious plans for turning the animals themselves into products. Our examples move between real attempts at solving the problem and the strange logic that appears when nuisance animals meet entrepreneurial thinking.

Happy Hump Day, yo! We got you over the hump this morning with freebies from GameDay Men's Health on Workforce Wednesday. You can sign up every week on our app or website! In the news this morning, a recap of last night's State of the Union Address, an update on the search for Nancy Guthrie, sad news for actor & comedian Martin Short and his family as his adopted daughter apparently took her own life, Christina Applegate reveals that she is now almost bed-ridden because of her battle with MS, and multiple NYPD officers were hit with snowballs yesterday. In sports, the Bucks beat the Heat last night, the Badgers take on Oregon later tonight, the Miz knocks an apple off a teammate's head with a 104mph heater(or did he?), Connor Hellebuyck will receive the Medal of Freedom from President Trump, and Jack and Quinn Hughes respond to the backlash from President Trump's phone call to the Gold-medal winning men's team. We talked about what's on TV and Brian reviewed the movie "Primate". A very unique kitten is going viral and looking for it's forever home…and congrats to this kid from Colorado who got a very in-depth tour of the Southwest Airline headquarters in Dallas. Elsewhere in sports, the Lions are playing in Germany next season, the NFL is possibly expanding replay, Kirk Cousins is going to be looking for a new team when the NFL year begins, and the UFL is making some very interesting changes to the kicking game this upcoming season. How often do you replace your underwear? Apparently, you're supposed to completely replace your skivvies every six months. Who knew? A couple of new diets are trending - something called "Boy Kibble"…and "Plastic Wrap Eating". And in today's edition of "Bad News with Happy Music", we had stories about the inventor of the Squatty Potty, a burglar in Atlanta that got captured in an air vent, a woman who almost died after getting a dog-lick infection, a grandpa with a unique license plate gets it revoked by the DMV, a wild video of a criminal suspect hiding in a trash can, and a Canadian strip club that's opening up next to a children's dance studio.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Luke and John are going to be doing a show together, and Luke has some new material to workshop! (Yes--it does!)

If history is a teacher, we have at least 4 more thaws-and-refreezes before Real Spring. But, if history is a teacher, Luke still won't learn. LATER: WE HAVE SO MUCH TO TALK ABOUT. But let's talk about Artificial Intelligence again. Marcus Pittman suggestes that God was the Original Prompter, and making things with AI is a valid way to imitate God and make art. But, boy, that wasn't a popular take! FINALLY: John reads some AI-generated "jokes" from his comedy-writing GPT. (Yikes.) Contact the Comedian's Family by emailing nextdoor@johnbranyan.com

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.

Welcome to the kitchen table, Neighbor. John admits he often talks to himself... And that leads to a discussion about how to not go crazy if you're ever stuck on a deserted island... THEN: John sent us an article this week about the imminent take-over of artificial intelligence. But does the average person really understand what kind of tool it is? And, what should we do about the fact that AI sometimes talks people into killing themselves? Email the Comedian's family at nextdoor@johnbranyan.com .
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.

Building HVAC Science - Building Performance, Science, Health & Comfort
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.

Well, as you know, we're a week into Black History Month. How are you observing this very important holiday?Can we take credit for our teenager's really excellent paper on Uncle Tom's Cabin, or do we need to make our own offering? THEN: We talk about racists. Of course, you can tell who's in power by looking at who you're not allowed to criticize... And, when it comes to the Ogden Boys, you're not allowed to criticize their online shenanigans. (Read: immaturity.) So, make from that what you will. LATER: The Peaches explains what women want.

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.
