“Somebody pressed the More Stifler button too many times” - SteveOn the penultimate episode of the 2026 Summer Blockbuster Extravaganza, we're going back for another serving of defiled dessert as we attempt to break down the sex-crazed sequel, American Wedding! Why couldn't the script bother to tell us what happened to the missing friends in the cast? And if folks are missing, why not give the MILF Guys some more to do? Would this movie have started stronger if we had a scroll or old man narrator to kick things off? Did Eugene Levy and Fred Willard have to have back surgery after carrying this movie for an hour and a half? And how did Bear get invited to the wedding? PLUS: Another exciting installment of the VHS Trailer Game! American Wedding stars Jason Biggs, Seann William Scott, Alyson Hannigan, Eddie Kaye Thomas, Thomas Ian Nicholas, January Jones, Molly Cheek, Deborah Rush, Fred Willard, Angela Paton, Eric Allan Kramer, John Cho, Justin Isfeld, Amanda Swiften, Nikki Ziering, and Eugene Levy as Jim's Dad; directed by Jesse Dylan.This episode is sponsored by Rocket Money!

Is There a Nexus Existing Between The Orchid Flower and The Elderly People? An Interdisciplinary, Theological, and Metaphorical Reflection. © 2026. ISBN 978-976-97997-3-8.mp3AbstractThis scholarly conversation explores whether a meaningful nexus exists between the orchid flower and elderly people. Rather than presenting a biological comparison, the discussion develops a metaphorical, theological, philosophical, and interdisciplinary framework informed by media arts, cultural theory, environmental appreciation, and Christian devotion. Orchids and elderly people occupy distinct kingdoms of life; however, both exemplify beauty, resilience, diversity, adaptation, and intrinsic worth. Through the integration of botanical history, gerontology, biblical theology, and cultural symbolism, this essay argues that orchids provide an illuminating metaphor for understanding aging with dignity. Ultimately, the comparison invites readers to reconsider cultural assumptions about age while affirming that every stage of life reflects God's creative wisdom. All things being considered it should be noted that the social constructs orchids, elderly, aging, metaphor, theology, ecology, cultural theory, are media arts are critical to this discourse.Dr. William Anderson Gittens, Doctor of DivinityReferencesBoyce, W.

Destaney sits down with BTR Media's newest product manager, Lucas Seeley, who started his career bartending at a Penn State hotel and ended up as an intern at Flywheel Digital before he turned 20.

O cenário político para 2026 acaba de ganhar um novo elemento de pressão.A pesquisa BTG/Nexus divulgada nesta segunda-feira, 13, revelou que o grupo de eleitores que prefere um candidato de terceira via, sem o apoio de Lula ou de Jair Bolsonaro, saltou de 11% em março para 27% em julho.Embora o primeiro turno ainda mostre uma forte polarização entre Lula (40%) e Flávio Bolsonaro (34%), o cansaço do eleitorado com a divisão política tradicional começa a desenhar uma nova dinâmica para as campanhas.Papo Antagonista é o programa que explica e debate os principais acontecimentos do dia com análises críticas e aprofundadas sobre a política brasileira e seus bastidores.

Most AI is built for people sitting at desks. Kriti Sharma builds it for the people who work in refineries, aircraft hangars, and utility networks responding to wildfires at 4 a.m. and she spends weekends on-site with them to make sure what she builds actually holds up. In this episode, Kriti joins Craig Smith to discuss what industrial AI really looks like when failure genuinely isn't an option, and why the gap between an impressive AI pilot and a production-grade AI system is so much wider in the physical world than most technology companies appreciate. The conversation is grounded in three specific products from Nexus Black, the elite AI unit Kriti leads inside IFS. The first is Resolve, a predictive maintenance platform built in close collaboration with William Grant's - the distillery behind Glenfiddich and Hendricks Gin - that is projected to save £8.4 million per year at a single factory by reading complex engineering schematics, identifying failure patterns before they occur, and giving frontline technicians step-by-step guidance on their phones without requiring them to remove a safety glove to type. The second is an airworthiness compliance tool for commercial airlines that automates a process currently consuming weeks of human engineering time, where a single mistake carries regulatory fines of up to $20 million and grounding a fleet costs $140 million per day. The third is a disaster response coordination system for utilities, built in partnership with Anthropic, designed to help field crews coordinate during wildfires, hurricanes, and grid outages in ways that, as a California disaster responder told Kriti directly after the most recent wildfire season, will get communities back online and hospitals lit up faster than ever before.

Independent researcher Gary Leckey joins Gary Cocciolillo for a wide-ranging exploration of the patterns connecting consciousness, frequency, nature, technology, and ancient spiritual systems. They discuss Leckey's Harmonic Nexus model, artificial ionospheres and spacecraft shielding, emotional resonance between people, sacred geometry, cymatics, AI, simulation theory, reincarnation, and the possibility that consciousness is reality reflecting through different forms. This conversation moves from speculative physics to mysticism and asks one central question: Are the same underlying patterns repeating through nature, culture, technology, and consciousness?AppleSpotify

Connection is your greatest multiplier—if you know how to build it right. Enjoy my conversation with David Homan, CEO of Orchestrated Connecting. 3 takeaways: Connection is built, not found. It starts with curiosity, vulnerability, and showing up consistently. Give first—without keeping score. The best relationships aren't transactional… they're intentional. Gratitude compounds. A simple thank you can strengthen a relationship for a lifetime. Most people focus on outcomes. The best focus on people. --- A "Connector of Connectors:" David Homan connects people. His primary skill in life is learning about people, helping them reframe and pitch themselves better, and then creating long-lasting relationships based on the premise that for everyone for whom he connects the dots, they would be described as an action oriented, natural giver with high integrity. His book, Orchestrating Connection, published in 2025 is a USA Best-Seller, and his community of over 2300 global "superconnectors" represents family offices, venture capitalists, impact investors, entertainers, athletes, CEOs/Founders, community organizers, and a myriad of other incredible "occupations" that do little to describe how amazing each individual in this community of communities is. He launched his tech company, SOAR Connect in July 2024 and will be bringing out of beta to change the way we build relationships at scale with trust. How David got here: As a prior non-profit CEO, David raised millions for the arts while running a multi-national, multi-million dollar Foundation that survived near total destruction due to Bernie Madoff, and incubated a social impact film company for the Dalio Family Office. His impact advisory firm, Orchestrated Opportunities, partners with family offices, start-ups, funds, and nonprofits to builds new, structured ecosystems of relationships to strategically scale and expand their growth. Focal areas include mental health, health and wellness, climate change, art, philanthropy, social justice, and investing in women, among others. David is a recognized classical composer whose music can be found by saying "Alexa–please play the music of David Homan" with 7 albums and radio play internationally. His latest project is a film/mini-series focused on a composer who loses his mind to Alzheimer's. He serves as an Advisor to NEXUS, the Catalyst Impact Foundation, Regeneration.VC, and as Board Chair of the Arthur Miller Foundation.

Today we were thrilled to welcome Jeremy Fraenkel, CEO, and Brennan Demro, Chief Commercial Officer, of Fundamental. We had the opportunity to spend the day with Jeremy and Brennan in Houston visiting with a number of energy companies to discuss how Fundamental's AI technology can be applied across the industry. Fundamental is developing a new category of AI that helps enterprises turn structured data into predictive intelligence, enabling better forecasting, decision-making, and operational performance. In our conversation, we discuss a critical but often underappreciated area of AI: structured and tabular data. Jeremy explains that while large language models have transformed how people work with text, code, images, and video, the vast majority of enterprise data still lives in structured formats, from spreadsheets and databases to sensor data and transaction logs. Fundamental has built Nexus, a foundation model trained on billions of tables. Jeremy and Brennan describe how Fundamental's model differs from traditional LLMs, particularly around determinism, security, and enterprise deployment. While LLMs can produce different outputs with small changes in wording, Fundamental is designed to deliver consistent, auditable predictions for critical business decisions. We discuss how Fundamental complements large language models within agentic AI workflows, serving as the predictive engine for enterprise data while LLMs handle unstructured information. Rather than replacing LLMs, Jeremy argues that enterprise AI requires both capabilities: LLMs for language and reasoning, and purpose-built models for structured data and prediction. Brennan highlights the company's ability to deploy within a customer's own environment, helping address major enterprise concerns around data security and control. We explore how their technology can be applied across energy, including predictive maintenance, asset optimization, demand forecasting, inventory and working capital management, and back-office efficiency. Brennan emphasizes that many energy companies are sitting on decades of rich but underutilized data, and how Fundamental's approach can help unlock insights from those data sets while augmenting existing data science workflows rather than replacing them. We also touch on AI adoption, proof-of-concept challenges, governance, reliability, and the importance of pairing AI tools with measurable business ROI. Mike Bradley opened the discussion by noting that financial markets have been relatively subdued over the past five trading days. He reviewed year-to-date performance across several key asset classes, including fixed income markets, broad equity indices, energy equities, electric-centric equities, and oil and natural gas commodities. He highlighted several significant market-moving events that have influenced performance across bonds, equities, and commodity markets this year, providing context behind recent market trends and investor sentiment. Robby Kester and Veriten Senior Advisor Deborah Byers also joined and added their technology perspectives and questions throughout the conversation. We greatly enjoyed hosting Jeremy and Brennan in our offices and hope you enjoy the conversation as much as we did. To our Canadian friends, Happy Canada Day! And to everyone celebrating America's 250th Independence Day this week, we wish you a wonderful Fourth of July!

The Superhero Show #627Fantastic Four: The Enemy of the GoodThe Superhero Show — The Enemy of the GoodThis week, The Superhero Show changes up its usual format for a special deep-dive episode dedicated entirely to Ryan North's Fantastic Four #7, the landmark 700th issue of Fantastic Four. Rather than splitting time between the 1994 animated series and the modern comic, the hosts devote the entire episode to discussing “The Enemy of the Good,” a double-sized anniversary issue that delivers mystery, time travel, tragedy, and one of the best Doctor Doom stories in recent memory.As the Fantastic Four retreat to Aunt Petunia's house to escape the constant attention of Maria Hill and S.H.I.E.L.D., they find themselves facing a strange phenomenon that causes them to gradually lose language itself. What begins as a haunting ghost story evolves into an epic examination of Doctor Doom, fate, and the impossible burden of trying to save the future.The hosts break down the issue's ambitious plot, Ryan North's storytelling strengths, and why this milestone issue feels worthy of celebrating 700 issues of Marvel's first family.The Enemy of the Good: A House Full of Missing WordsThe episode begins with a discussion of the issue's central mystery.While staying at Aunt Petunia's house, the Fantastic Four begin experiencing a bizarre condition where letters of the alphabet start disappearing from their minds. As more letters vanish, communication becomes increasingly difficult and reality itself begins to feel unstable.The hosts discuss how effectively Ryan North builds tension through what initially feels like a classic haunted-house story. The mystery unfolds slowly, creating an atmosphere that is equal parts unsettling and fascinating as the team struggles to understand what is happening before they lose the ability to explain it altogether.They praise the issue for taking an absurd comic-book concept and making it feel genuinely threatening.The Enemy of the Good: The Return of Doctor DoomAs the mystery deepens, the story reveals its true architect: Doctor Doom.The hosts spend a significant portion of the episode discussing how Ryan North writes Doom and why this version of the character has resonated so strongly with readers. Doom's motivation stems from his anger toward Reed Richards after the events that displaced Valeria, the Baxter Building, and its occupants into the future.Convinced that Reed's actions created a disaster that should have been avoidable, Doom becomes obsessed with proving that he is smarter, more capable, and better suited to solve the crisis than Reed ever was.The hosts highlight how perfectly this motivation captures Doom's defining flaw: his inability to accept that there might be problems even he cannot solve.The Enemy of the Good: A Battle Against FateOne of the most compelling parts of the issue centers on Doom repeatedly traveling through time in an attempt to prevent the catastrophic future event connected to Annihilus.The hosts discuss how Doom continuously alters his approach, going further and further back in time, trying countless solutions in an effort to prove that his intellect can overcome any obstacle. Every attempt fails.What Doom eventually discovers is that the event has become a Nexus point—a moment so essential that it will occur regardless of intervention.The conversation explores how powerful this realization is for a character whose entire identity revolves around being the smartest person in the room. For perhaps one of the few times in his life, Doom is forced to confront a problem that cannot be solved through intelligence, preparation, or sheer force of will.The Enemy of the Good: Understanding DoomThe hosts repeatedly return to the issue's portrayal of Doctor Doom, arguing that it may be one of the strongest character studies of the villain in years.They discuss how Ryan North balances Doom's arrogance, brilliance, ego, insecurity, and genuine care for Valeria. Rather than presenting Doom as simply evil, the issue shows him as a deeply flawed man whose greatest weakness is his inability to accept limitations.What makes the story especially effective is that Doom is often correct. He is brilliant. He is capable. He does care. Yet those truths make his failures hurt even more.The hosts praise North for creating a story where the emotional stakes feel just as important as the science-fiction concepts.The Enemy of the Good: Doom Stops DoomThe issue reaches its climax when Doom arrives at an unexpected conclusion.If no version of himself can successfully alter the future event, then the only solution is to prevent himself from attempting the mission in the first place.The hosts discuss the brilliant irony of Doom realizing that the greatest threat to the timeline is not Reed Richards—but Doom himself. By traveling back and subtly weakening his own forces, he creates the circumstances that allow Sue Storm and the Fantastic Four to stop him before his obsession spirals any further.It is a conclusion that feels both tragic and perfectly fitting for the character.Celebrating 700 Issues of Fantastic FourThe final segment focuses on the significance of this issue as the 700th installment of Fantastic Four.The hosts reflect on what it means for Marvel's first family to reach such a milestone and discuss why The Enemy of the Good feels like an appropriate celebration of everything the franchise represents. The issue combines family, science fiction, emotional storytelling, cosmic stakes, and character-driven drama in a way that encapsulates the very best of Fantastic Four comics.They also spend some time marveling at the fact that there have been 700 issues of Fantastic Four and what that says about the lasting impact of these characters.Final Thoughts — The Enemy of the GoodBy the end of The Enemy of the Good, The Superhero Show finds itself discussing not only one of the strongest issues of Ryan North's run, but potentially one of the strongest Doctor Doom stories in years. Through its blend of mystery, time travel, emotional stakes, and philosophical questions about fate, the issue delivers a memorable anniversary celebration worthy of the Fantastic Four legacy.Whether it's the haunting disappearance of language, the heartbreaking journey of Doctor Doom, or the reminder of why Marvel's first family has endured for 700 issues, The Enemy of the Good gives the hosts plenty to celebrate—and plenty to talk about.Are You a Research Nerd Who's Looking For More?Here are some links for all your research wants and needs!1994 Fantastic Four Animated SeriesRyan North's Fantastic FourJoin the discussions online! 1994 Fantastic Four Animated Series, Ryan North's Fantastic FourCatch Up On Past Episodes!Missed any of our past episodes?

Climate philanthropy does far more than fund advocacy and conservation—it bridges critical funding gaps for breakthrough technologies that traditional, financially driven investors often overlook. In this special episode, we continue our ongoing Climate Philanthropy series in partnership with the Skyline Foundation to explore how non-profit support accelerates the climate tech pipeline.Shereen D'Souza (Climate Solutions Portfolio Lead at Skyline Foundation) sits down with two powerhouse CEOs from her grantee portfolio, Deepa Lounsbury of LabStart and Andrew Chang of New Energy Nexus, to discuss what it really takes to move climate innovation from a university lab to global deployment.Why This Episode MattersBringing a "hard tech" climate startup from initial lab concept to commercial scale takes an average of 10 years, and every single step of that journey faces a unique "valley of death." Because scaled deployment looks drastically different depending on the geography, supporting entrepreneurs requires a highly specialized ecosystem.This conversation highlights how philanthropy strategically funds distinct, critical phases of the lab-to-market pipeline to scale viable climate solutions faster.On today's episode, we cover:0:58 – Why climate philanthropy & Skyline partnership3:35 – LabStart vs. New Energy Nexus focus4:09 – Guest intros: Deepa (LabStart) & Andrew (New Energy Nexus)4:46 – Deepa's background in climate, VC, and CalSEED6:20 – What LabStart does & “deep climate tech” focus8:02 – Andrew's overview of New Energy Nexus global model9:43 – Programs: bootcamps, grants, CalSEED, and global south focus11:16 – What it looks like to be a New Energy Nexus entrepreneur11:54 – Philippines rooftop solar opportunity: Solar Innovation Program12:48 – Pakistan rooftop solar boom and Climate Innovation Pakistan13:40 – CalSEED structure and impact in California13:58 – What it looks like to be a LabStart entrepreneur14:55 – LabStart Discover and Launch phases15:54 – Why philanthropy is needed in climate tech innovation18:36 – Philanthropy in the global south and hyperlocal impact22:10 – LabStart success story: architect-turned-3D housing founder24:32 – Additional LabStart founders and outcomes25:25 – How much philanthropic capital is needed27:17 – IEA investment gap and catalytic examples from Indonesia29:43 – Why fund new technologies vs. only deployment32:06 – How country pathways shape New Energy Nexus engagement33:02 – California deployment example: ThermoShade33:58 – Indonesia fishermen & electric motorboats case: Volto Sea34:51 – Pakistan PakPlug EV charging app35:22 – What else the ecosystem needs: Andrew on subnational governments37:34 – What else the ecosystem needs: Deepa on IP & ecosystem gaps41:02 – Five-year vision & asks: Deepa and LabStart43:49 – Five-year vision & asks: Andrew and New Energy Nexus47:26 – Closing thanks from ShereenResources MentionedInvested in Climate: Climate Philanthropy seriesSkyline FoundationLabStartNew Energy NexusProject DrawdownJamil WyneCalSEED Solar Innovation ProgramClimate Innovation Pakistan CalTestBedAusTestbedThermoShade Swap Energy Xuraya Volto SeaPakPlug Schmidt Family Foundation Boundless EarthAtlassian Foundation California Energy Commission (CEC) New York State Energy Research and Development Authority (NYSERDA)Mubadala Investment Company (Abu Dhabi) Australian Renewable Energy Agency (ARENA)International Energy Agency (IEA)Elemental ImpactActivate Renewables FirstConnect with usShereen D'SouzaDeepa LounsburyAndrew ChangJason RissmanKeep up with Invested In ClimateSign up for our NewsletterSubscribe for our Other Future NewsletterLinkedInInstagramIf you like what you hear, subscribe and rate to support the show!

“I feel like I could smell it through the TV” - Eric on GwildorThis week on the program, we're kicking off the 2026 Summer Blockbuster Extravaganza by talking about the toy/cartoon adaptation that was anything but a blockbuster, 1987's Masters of the Universe! Could this Billy Barty character have been designed to look any more disgusting? Why did they insist on dragging James Tolkan through almost every scene of the movie? Is the Courteney Cox character actually trying to live out a Bruce Springsteen song? And why in the world is He-Man barely in this He-Man movie? PLUS: As promised, here's the link to the Pig Boy video on YouTube!Masters of the Universestars Dolph Lundgren, Meg Foster, Billy Barty, Courteney Cox, Robert Duncan McNeill, Jon Cypher, Chelsea Field, James Tolkan, Christina Pickles, Tony Carroll, Pons Maar, Anthony De Longis, Robert Towers, and Frank Langella as Skeletor; directed by Gary Goddard.This episode is sponsored by Rocket Money!

An important explanation of the major events happening right now. Things are getting hot in Paris, but it's normal. They don't use foam fingers. When they need the clicks, they make loud moves. Let's say it again, always listen to your President. Research always leads to rabbit holes. Truth gravitates like reforming DNA. Sponsors are always the people. Getting into the nitty gritty vids. Who's watching your banking account? A deeply complex look at a new scene. Tax refunds and digital tools. California's smart meters are a child's play level of control. At the birth of what was then the latest new tech. Now, it's more approachable. The Dept. Of War is key. The Fourth Amendment has been out the window for decades. It's not about a linear history. It all happens at once. If you can't explain it simply, then you don't know the topic. Contracts, graft and corruption. The Nexus 7 lineage. FOIA releases and the hidden powers. Travelling with no tech. June has been a bucket of ooze. The majority of public people are part of the show. Don't fall into their structured pockets of thinking. Always remember that God has got this, and there is nothing for us to fear.
What are the conditions that enable a country to become great — or great again? The Trump administration — and other right-wing movements in other countries — offers a vision of greatness based on power and domination abroad, and a mix of shared national and religious stories at home. And that vision is clearly appealing to a lot of people. Liberals in the U.S. and elsewhere have been struggling to tell a story that can compete. What story would Yuval Noah Harari tell? One of the through lines of Harari's best-selling books — “Sapiens,” “Homo Deus,” “Nexus” — is the huge role that stories play in shaping the arc of history, driving humans to cooperate on a grand scale to achieve great things, or divide violently against one another. So I wanted to ask him about the stories that the U.S. and Israel, in particular, seem to have embraced right now. What does history tell us about the power of this story? And why does the liberal story seem so weak right now?
