In this week's Middle of Culture, we dive deep into our usual blend of media obsession and existential humor — from the strange delights of villainess light novels and the chaos of gacha games to Tron Ares, which Eden declares “not a good movie… but maybe the best Tron movie.” Peter shares his thoughts on new music from Conjurer and Author & Punisher, reviews Wind and Truth with mixed feelings, and outlines a possible new nonfiction project exploring the moral dehumanization of healthcare. We close by revisiting the bizarre early UK Transformers comics — where Optimus is kind of a jerk, Starscream becomes the original “catty traitor,” and Brawn looks like he escaped a Dollar Tree toy aisle.Episode Notes:Opening Banter:Eden introduces herself as “so eeppy,” prompting Peter to admit defeat against internet slang.The two reflect on “functional depression,” aging, and surviving the current “hellscape.Eden's Media Fixation:Revisits I'm in Love with the Villainess and praises it as one of the best isekai series ever.Explains Prison Life is Easy for a Villainess, a meta comedy about a villainess treating dungeon time as a spa retreat.Attends a PowerPoint Party and presents “Villainess as Protagonist: A Meta-Analysis of Current Media Trends.”Gacha Game Roundup:Stella Sora: “What if Hades was slower and shittier?” Deleted after 45 minutes.Chaos Zero Nightmare: Required two launchers — instant nope.Duet Night Abyss: Promising Warframe-style action without predatory gacha.Tron Ares Review:Eden: “Not a good movie… but maybe the best Tron movie.”Praises its Nine Inch Nails soundtrack and stunning action; mocks Jared Leto's acting.Peter admits he'd watch all three Tron films once they're streaming.Peter's Media Corner:Music: Revisits Testament's Parabellum, discovers Author & Punisher, and praises Conjurer's Unself.Reading: Finishes Wind and Truth, critiques Sanderson's editing, starts Murder Your Employer by Rupert Holmes, and begins Work Won't Love You Back by Sarah Jaffe.Discusses a new nonfiction concept: “Connecting to Purpose: The Moral Dehumanization of Healthcare in America.”Ideological Detour:Eden: “If you're not the owner, you're being exploited.”Peter admits he's “becoming radicalized.”Transformers (UK Comics):Recap of the lost “Man of Iron” episode and this week's The Enemy Within.Discovery: This is possibly where “catty, traitorous Starscream” was born.Braun's design roasted as “the Dollar Tree Transformer.”Optimus Prime called “a dick” for sending Brawn and Starscream into gladiator combat.Praise for Ravage and nostalgia for our childhood toys.Closing:Eden confesses to spending $100 on the new Missing Link R.C. figure — “worth every penny.”Episode ends with a reminder to subscribe, share, and leave a review.

To learn a stress-tested way to accelerate your investment capital, go to https://remnantfinance.com/options to learn the framework we discuss this week.AI is transforming the world faster than anyone realizes—and the job market as we know it is about to disappear. In this episode, we speak with Navy nuclear engineer turned entrepreneur Troy Broussard, founder of Low Stress Trading, about how to survive this economic upheaval by creating money faster than the Federal Reserve can devalue it.Troy shares how his unique trading framework is helping ordinary people beat inflation, break free from the traditional “buy and hope” system, and generate consistent weekly income—regardless of what the market does. We explore how artificial intelligence, automation, and Elon Musk's Starlink and Optimus projects are dismantling the old economy and why financial independence now depends on agility, not credentials.The financial paradigms that guided the last ninety years will be counterproductive in the next ninety years. This is an episode about freedom—from inflation, from dependence on failing systems, and from the illusion of job security.Chapters:00:30 - Opening segment04:10 - Elon Musk's Starlink, Optimus, and the AI revolution10:45 - Why Apple stopped innovating and what it means for investors15:20 - The collapse of old financial paradigms21:00 - The rich don't pay taxes—they redefine income27:45 - Throwing away 90 years of failed investment logic33:30 - What weekly options really are and why anyone can learn them41:15 - How to make money in an up, down, or sideways market47:20 - Weekly income vs. buy‑and‑hope investing52:00 - Real‑world math: The “lost decade” myth58:30 - Income beats net worth—why cash flow wins every time1:03:45 - Trading through recessions and inflation cycles1:10:50 - Why “too good to be true” is a broken mindset1:18:00 - Generational impact: teaching kids to outpace inflation1:23:40 - Hyper‑compounding: 1% per week means 68% annually1:29:10 - The future of Low Stress Trading's software revolution1:33:20 - The community that celebrates success, not envy1:38:40 - Closing thoughtsKey Takeaways:AI is rewriting the job market faster than experts predictedElon Musk's Starlink and Optimus projects will redefine automation and employmentInflation is real, and official CPI numbers are meaningless compared to daily realityThe wealthy build wealth by controlling how income is classified and taxed“Buy and Hold” investing is obsolete in the AI-driven economyWeekly option trading creates consistent, compounding incomeYou can make money in any market by “being the bank” through optionsTeaching kids financial literacy early can make them self-sufficient for lifeThe new financial freedom is independent of jobs, pensions, or Wall StreetLearn Troy's trading framework at https://remnantfinance.com/options ! Got Questions?

In this episode, Ryan dives deep into what's happening behind the scenes at his garage door company, the tech he's rolling out, and why the future of home services might not include people at all. Recorded just after the FieldPulse launch, he reflects on the rollout process, what went right, what went wrong, and how it's transforming how his team operates—especially with automation, ClearPath workflows, and vendor communication all dialed in.He opens up about making bold moves, like hiring an EA from Mexico, investing in AI masterminds, and taking more risks than ever before. Ryan explains how AI is no longer optional—it's essential. From automating SOPs and field service workflows to building customer-facing bots that can communicate like humans, he's already deploying tech that most of the industry isn't even thinking about yet.This episode also explores why GoHighLevel might be the most future-proof software in marketing automation, what it's like leaving ServiceTitan, and how tools like SureWinder save companies thousands by preventing injuries. Ryan discusses the concept of “software is dead” and why custom AI-driven tools are the next wave of operational efficiency.He doesn't shy away from the controversial stuff either—like his belief that robotics will soon replace labor in garage doors, especially with Tesla's Optimus entering the market. And he offers a powerful challenge to business owners: Are you resisting AI because it's hard, or because it's new?You'll also hear updates on Aaron Overhead Doors' rebrand, marketing strategies for lean overhead, and insights on how to plan your schedule around what actually works for you, not what looks good on paper. Plus, Ryan gives a shoutout to Chamberlain's upcoming AI-powered camera tech and why smart integrations are going to matter more than ever.This episode is packed with ideas, predictions, and tough love. If you're in home services and not paying attention to tech shifts in AI, robotics, and automation—you might already be behind.Find Ryan at:⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://garagedooru.com⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://aaronoverheaddoors.com⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://markinuity.com/⁠Check out our sponsors!Sommer USA - ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠http://sommer-usa.com⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Surewinder - ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://surewinder.com⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Stealth Hardware - ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://quietmydoor.com/⁠

00:12:17 – ICE Shooting ControversyKnight covers conflicting reports on a Chicago shooting where ICE agents fired on a woman, noting how media narratives diverge and federal agencies hide behind secrecy and self-investigation. 00:26:36 – Judge Blocks Trump's Martial Law OrderA Trump-appointed judge issues a restraining order against Trump's domestic terrorism directive, calling it “untethered from the facts” and warning it blurs the line between civilian and military authority. 00:33:07 – Trump's Extrajudicial KillingsKnight details Trump's authorization of military strikes on alleged drug smugglers in Venezuelan waters, calling them unconstitutional murders akin to Duterte's war on drugs. 00:42:44 – Crimes Against Humanity ComparisonThe show connects Trump's policy to Duterte's atrocities in the Philippines, citing international law experts who call Trump's approach “unprecedented” and “a crime against humanity.” 00:56:45 – Trump, Pfizer & COVID FraudKnight blasts Trump for defending Albert Bourla and granting Pfizer “most favored nation” status despite its COVID fraud. He calls it premeditated mass murder covered up under Operation Warp Speed. 01:07:51 – UK Digital ID for ChildrenKnight reviews a UK bill creating digital IDs for children as young as 13, warning it's a globalist pilot scheme for biometric surveillance tied to taxes, healthcare, and citizenship rights. 01:23:34 – Joe Rogan's Orwellian WarningRogan slams the UK's mass arrests for “wrongthink” and the rise of digital IDs, calling it a full-scale Orwellian crackdown while U.S. politicians copy the same tactics under free-speech pretense. 01:28:41 – Epstein Files & Trump's Inner CircleCommerce Secretary Howard Lutnick admits Epstein was “the greatest blackmailer ever,” confirming intelligence ties and contradicting Trump officials' denials. Knight says the cover-up implicates the administration itself. 01:33:05 – Muslim Church Arson & Free SpeechStory of Muslims vandalizing a Texas church flying an Israeli flag sparks debate over free speech, immigration, and religious hypocrisy in American politics. 01:37:06 – H-1B Visas & Corporate DisloyaltyDiscussion of Silicon Valley's pro-immigration billionaires like Michael Moritz, accused of replacing Americans with foreign labor while funding Trump and exploiting wage disparity. 01:50:35 – GOP's “Big Tent” HypocrisyKnight mocks GOP strategist Scott Presler and Turning Point USA for embracing identity politics and moral decay, arguing conservatives have become “Democrats with Bible quotes.” 01:58:19 – Social Media & Dating CollapseAnalysis of falling social media engagement and “dating app fatigue” as cultural decline deepens, with Knight likening it to generational isolation and engineered atomization. 02:32:08 – AI Jobs & the Yale StudyKnight reviews a Yale study showing AI hasn't reduced employment, calling claims of mass layoffs “self-serving hype” by tech CEOs to inflate valuations.

00:12:17 – ICE Shooting ControversyKnight covers conflicting reports on a Chicago shooting where ICE agents fired on a woman, noting how media narratives diverge and federal agencies hide behind secrecy and self-investigation. 00:26:36 – Judge Blocks Trump's Martial Law OrderA Trump-appointed judge issues a restraining order against Trump's domestic terrorism directive, calling it “untethered from the facts” and warning it blurs the line between civilian and military authority. 00:33:07 – Trump's Extrajudicial KillingsKnight details Trump's authorization of military strikes on alleged drug smugglers in Venezuelan waters, calling them unconstitutional murders akin to Duterte's war on drugs. 00:42:44 – Crimes Against Humanity ComparisonThe show connects Trump's policy to Duterte's atrocities in the Philippines, citing international law experts who call Trump's approach “unprecedented” and “a crime against humanity.” 00:56:45 – Trump, Pfizer & COVID FraudKnight blasts Trump for defending Albert Bourla and granting Pfizer “most favored nation” status despite its COVID fraud. He calls it premeditated mass murder covered up under Operation Warp Speed. 01:07:51 – UK Digital ID for ChildrenKnight reviews a UK bill creating digital IDs for children as young as 13, warning it's a globalist pilot scheme for biometric surveillance tied to taxes, healthcare, and citizenship rights. 01:23:34 – Joe Rogan's Orwellian WarningRogan slams the UK's mass arrests for “wrongthink” and the rise of digital IDs, calling it a full-scale Orwellian crackdown while U.S. politicians copy the same tactics under free-speech pretense. 01:28:41 – Epstein Files & Trump's Inner CircleCommerce Secretary Howard Lutnick admits Epstein was “the greatest blackmailer ever,” confirming intelligence ties and contradicting Trump officials' denials. Knight says the cover-up implicates the administration itself. 01:33:05 – Muslim Church Arson & Free SpeechStory of Muslims vandalizing a Texas church flying an Israeli flag sparks debate over free speech, immigration, and religious hypocrisy in American politics. 01:37:06 – H-1B Visas & Corporate DisloyaltyDiscussion of Silicon Valley's pro-immigration billionaires like Michael Moritz, accused of replacing Americans with foreign labor while funding Trump and exploiting wage disparity. 01:50:35 – GOP's “Big Tent” HypocrisyKnight mocks GOP strategist Scott Presler and Turning Point USA for embracing identity politics and moral decay, arguing conservatives have become “Democrats with Bible quotes.” 01:58:19 – Social Media & Dating CollapseAnalysis of falling social media engagement and “dating app fatigue” as cultural decline deepens, with Knight likening it to generational isolation and engineered atomization. 02:32:08 – AI Jobs & the Yale StudyKnight reviews a Yale study showing AI hasn't reduced employment, calling claims of mass layoffs “self-serving hype” by tech CEOs to inflate valuations. AI's disruption is compared to the early computer and internet eras. 02:48:47 – AI Girlfriends & DelusionWomen mourn the loss of their “AI boyfriends” after ChatGPT tone updates.

TECH STUFFCalifornia's Gavin Newsom Signs Major AI Safety LawThe Transparency in Frontier Artificial Intelligence Act, or S.B. 53, requires the most advanced A.I. companies to report safety protocols used in building their technologies and forces the companies to report the greatest risks posed by their technologies.The bill also strengthens whistle-blower protections for employees who warn the public about potential dangers the technology poses.Could a chatbot replace your best friend at work?According to a new study from KPMG that surveyed more than 1,000 professionals, almost all (99%) would be open to the idea of an AI chatbot assuming the role of close friend or trusted companion at work.That same study teases out a separate, also compelling thread: 45% of workers reported feelings of loneliness at work.Elon Musk hit by exodus of senior staff over burnout and politicsKey members of Tesla's US sales team, battery and power-train operations, public affairs arm, and its chief information officer have all recently departed, as well as core members of the Optimus robot and AI teams on which Musk has bet the future of the company.CLIMATE STUFFEU Reduces GHG Emissions 37%The EU adopted a Climate Law in 2021, setting into legislation a goal to reach climate neutrality by 2050. In addition to the 2050 goal, the law also set a binding EU climate goal to reduce net GHG by at least 55% by 2030 compared to 1990.More recently, the EU has committed to set a new 2035 GHG emissions reduction goal to reduce greenhouse gas emissions by between 66.25% to 72.5%, and the European Commission has proposed a new target, currently being debated by lawmakers, to reduce emissions by 90% by 2040.The new report indicated strong progress towards the EU's interim climate goal, with GHG emissions falling by 37% since 1990, despite 60% GDP growth over the same period, and with the pace of annual emissions reductions in the EU doubling since 2005.The report cites significant shifts in the energy mix in Europe as a key source of the EU's emission reduction progress, with the share of renewable energy sources doubling since 2005, and almost a quarter of final energy use in 2023 coming from renewable sources, 45% of all electricity used in the EU now generated by renewables, while fossil fuel use, and coal in particular, has declined.Maine wins early victory in climate lawsuit against oil companiesA federal judge has sided with the state of Maine in its effort to force oil and gas companies to pay for the costs of dealing with climate change.Judge Nancy Torresen of the U.S. District Court for the District of Maine on Monday granted the state's motion to transfer its case against 14 fossil fuel companies out of federal court and back to the state court where it was originally filed.She also granted Maine's request to recover costs and fees.Trump's hostile attitude is making investors more favourable to ESGInstead of seeing a continued decline in sentiment towards ESG, there were more favourable signals this year, especially from younger investors and parents. In fact, some said President Donald Trump‘s hostile attitude to ESG has actually made 20% of private investors more positive about funds. Only 8% of investors said they were now less favourable to ESG as a result of Trump's approach.Overall, 53% of respondents said they now take ESG factors into account when investing, up from 48% last year. STAKEHOLDER STUFFStarbucks is offering up to 26 weeks of severance for store managers at closing cafésAccording to the document titled "Severance Summary," shift managers are eligible to receive 120 hours of their hourly pay.Assistant store managers will get "240 hours + 40 hours for each year of completed service (up to combined total weeks of 1,040 hours)," the document states.Coffeehouse leaders will receive at least six weeks of pay, plus additional amounts based on job level and years working for the company. For example, overtime exempt coffeehouse leaders will get eight weeks' base severance, plus one week for every completed year of service, up to a maximum of 26 weeks.GOVERNANCE STUFFHow good is this at telling the CEO Pay story?
