Chad weighs in on the controversy involving Paul Allen, the outrage online, and the ridiculous idea the Allen is a highly political person.

Today marks Alan Alda's 90th birthday and 40 years since the space shuttle Challenger exploded. Chad jumps between great TV comedies and the biggest historical TV moments we watched on TV before he weighs in on the controversy involving Paul Allen and the comments which ignited that fire.

Chad's show features excellent guests Rena Sarigianopoulos and Anders Folk as well as conversations about the assault of Ilhan Omar last night and the disappointing responses from several leaders on the other side of the political aisle, Paul Allen's messy situation, and much more!

Czabe flies solo today with a loaded agenda. First up: the absurdity of making Shedeur Sanders—now somehow the martyr of the 2025 NFL Draft—a Pro Bowl Games alternate at QB. Things get taken away as you get older. It's a fact of life, and Southwest Airlines just proved it with their final open-seating flight now in the books. Paul Allen bends the knee, but it won't be enough. A hard truth: the Easter Bunny is fake, but paid protestors are real. Did an NFL poster actually foretell this year's Super Bowl LIX matchup? Neutral-site NFL Championship games are a completely horrible idea, which naturally means Mike Florio is all for them.

On Episode 144 of The Film ‘89 Podcast, both Neil and Skye are mistaken for Paul Allen as they discuss director Mary Harron's 2000 adaptation of Bret Easton Ellis' 1991 novel, American Psycho. Set in Manhattan during the Wall Street boom of 1989, American Psycho follows the life of a wealthy young investment banker named Patrick Bateman (Christian Bale). Bateman narrates his everyday activities, from his charmed yuppie recreational life of pampering and fine dining among the Wall Street elite of New York to his forays into murder by night. The guys discuss the film's complex plot, one that can have any number of varying interpretations as to both the reliability of the film's narrator and the questions raised as to whether Patrick Bateman is a crazed serial killer or if this is all just an elaborate fantasy concocted as a means of dealing with the banality of the world he lives in. Featuring a superb supporting cast, brilliant direction and a killer soundtrack, American Psycho is arguably more of a bleakly dark satire than it is a serial killer thriller, and is certainly a film more than worthy of the Film '89 treatment.

RUNDOWN   Mitch and Hotshot Scott reflect on the chaos and anticipation surrounding a third Seahawks–Rams matchup, debating momentum, matchup fatigue, and why this NFC Championship feels destined to be a coin flip despite Seattle's recent dominance. But the segment segues into a January 19th birthday remembrances, including Jean Stapleton, Junior Seau, Walter Jones, and a celebration of Dolly Parton. Mitch and Hotshot Scott relive all three previous NFC Championship Games at Lumen Field, from the 2006 breakthrough to the Miracle in 2014, while setting the stage for a fourth rubber match between the Seahawks and Rams. The discussion centers on the emotional weight of the 12th Man flag tradition following Paul Allen's legacy and the uncertainty around whether Pete Carroll, Jody Allen, or another iconic Seahawk should raise it. Ray Roberts explains why the Seahawks' 41–6 demolition of the 49ers wasn't a surprise, pointing to a confident, physical offensive line and a run game that has fully found its identity. He breaks down Kenneth Walker's late-season burst, the unselfish blocking culture among receivers, and how Sam Darnold's oblique injury hasn't altered Seattle's winning formula. Mitch, Brady Henderson, and Jacson Bevens break down why the Seahawks enter the NFC Championship Game in a stronger position than either previous matchup with the Rams, pointing to rest, home-field advantage, and a run game that has fully come alive. They discuss Sam Darnold's oblique injury, the status of key injuries up front, Kenneth Walker's late-season surge, and how Seattle might better contain Puka Nacua this time around. Mitch and Puck break down the emotional roller coaster of the Rams–Bears game and why the Rams, not Chicago, have always been the Seahawks' true postseason threat. They debate quarterback advantages, Sean McVay's mastery of the Seahawks defense, and whether Seattle's dominant run game and home-field edge can neutralize Matthew Stafford. The conversation also veers into NFC Championship superstitions, the 12th Man flag dilemma, and whether it's too soon for Pete Carroll to make a symbolic return.   GUESTS   Ray Roberts | Former NFL offensive lineman and Seahawks analyst Brady Henderson | Seahawks Insider, ESPN Jacson Bevens | Writer, Cigar Thoughts Jason Puckett | (Pucksports) Seattle Sports Radio Host/Analyst   TABLE OF CONTENTS   0:00 | Momentum, Memories, and Milestones — Seahawks–Rams III and a Walk Through January 19th History 18:58 | Three NFC Title Games, One Unanswered Question: Who Raises the 12th Man Flag This Time? 35:16 | GUEST: Ray Roberts; Ray Roberts Saw the Blowout Coming — Why the Seahawks Are Peaking at Exactly the Right Time 1:04:35 | GUEST: Seahawks No-Table; Seahawks–Rams Rubber Match Looms — Why Seattle Is Built for This Moment 1:27:02 | GUEST: Jason Puckett; Why the Rams Are the Seahawks' Real Problem — and Why This NFC Title Game Feels Inevitable 1:47:33 | Other Stuff Segment: Lil Jon halftime performance at Lumen Field, Seahawks home atmosphere and crowd energy, Little John diner in Bellevue/Issaquah, 2026 Seahawks outlook and salary cap space, Seahawks pending free agents (Kenneth Walker, Rashid Shaheed, Riq Woolen, Coby Bryant), Denver Broncos quarterback injury and Jarrett Stidham starting AFC Championship, college football playoff expansion debate (12 vs 16 vs 24 teams), Big Ten vs SEC power struggle, Mike Tomlin stepping down as Steelers head coach, Kyle Tucker signing with Dodgers, Dodgers vs Marlins payroll disparity, Mariners spending frustration, Arizona high school basketball player Adrian Stubbs scoring 100 points, KISS internal feud over "Beth" songwriting credit.

Paris.....Texas. The subject to two movies over the years, the most recent a romantic comedy. Listen, folks, this ain't no joke. I can personally attest that BBQ is alive in well in Texas and this day was a Championship Blowout.  Wine Talks was so intrgiued about the whole culture of BBQ, that we set up a podcast with Steven White, last years Grand Champion, Laura Caldwell, the representative from the Championship Barbecue Alliance, and Paul Allen, the 8 year President of the Paris, Texas Chamber of Commerce. We had a hoot. This episode is all about barbecue in Paris, Texas, but it's also a celebration of community, camaraderie, and a bit of competition. The host, Paul Kalemkiarian, kicks things off with heartfelt family anecdotes and dives straight into the welcoming spirit of Paris. Our guests — Steven White, Laura Caldwell, and Paul Allen — are true barbecue champions, and their love for bringing people together through food is practically contagious. A few tasty tidbits: Barbecue isn't just about grilling meat — it's about balance. As Steven White explains, the trick is not being "too sweet, not too spicy, not too anything." The competitions are run by alliances like the Champions Barbecue Alliance, who keep judging modern with QR codes and cell phones — no greasy, handwritten scorecards here! Newbies are ALWAYS welcome. Veteran pit-masters love sharing tips, but the real trick is in the execution (and maybe wrangling an occasional bacon stretcher just for laughs). The event supports local scholarships for kids, blending culinary skills with giving back. Most importantly, it's all about the joy of gathering around good food. Whether you're debating the merits of beer, whiskey, or a surprising glass of wine with your brisket, you're guaranteed to find laughter and friendship. If you want more nitty-gritty details, heartwarming stories, or just an excuse to fire up your grill this weekend, this episode's transcript is packed with flavor. Just ask if you want to zoom in on a specific part! Let me know if you want more fun facts, tips from the pit, or favorite wine pairings to go with those ribs. I'm here to serve — lighthearted and informative, just like this Paris, Texas shindig!   #BarbecueCompetition #WineTalksPodcast #TexasBBQ #FoodCommunity

On this special episode of the GeekWire Podcast, recorded backstage at the GeekWire Gala at the Showbox Sodo, we sit down with five of the inventors, scientists, and entrepreneurs selected as the Seattle region's 2025 Uncommon Thinkers, in partnership with Greater Seattle Partners. Jeff Thornburg spent years building rocket engines for Elon Musk at SpaceX and Paul Allen at Stratolaunch. Now, as CEO of Portal Space Systems, he's moved past chemical rockets to revive a concept NASA studied decades ago but never pursued — a spacecraft powered by focused sunlight. He calls it a "steam engine for space." Read the profile. Anindya Roy grew up in rural India without electricity, came to the U.S. with two suitcases and $2,000, and earned a spot in the lab of a Nobel Prize winner. Now, as co-founder of Lila Biologics, he's using AI to design proteins from scratch (molecules that have never existed in nature) to treat cancer. Read the profile. Jay Graber runs Bluesky, the decentralized social network that's become a leading alternative to X and other centralized platforms. But while most tech CEOs build moats to lock users in, Jay and the Bluesky team are building a protocol designed to let them leave. She sees the network as a "collective organism," and she's creating a tech foundation meant to outlive her own company. Read the profile. Read the profile. Kiana Ehsani came to Seattle from Iran for her PhD and spent four years at the Allen Institute for AI before becoming CEO of Vercept. She and the Vercept team are competing directly with OpenAI, Google and others in AI agents, building efficient agents that handle mundane digital tasks on computers so humans can spend less time on screens. Read the profile. Brian Pinkard spent six months after college flipping rocks and building trails because he wanted to do work that mattered. That instinct led him to Aquagga, where he's proving that the industry standard of filtering and burying "forever chemicals" is obsolete. Instead, he's using technology originally designed to destroy chemical weapons to annihilate PFAS under extreme heat and pressure. Read the profile. Eagle-eyed readers may have noticed we're missing one honoree — Chet Kittleson, co-founder and CEO of Tin Can, the startup making WiFi-enabled landline phones to help kids connect without screens.

Windows 1.0 came out on 20th November, 1985, introducing graphical user interface to the masses for the first time. Well, that was the concept, anyway; in truth, users required mighty hardware by the standards of the time (TWO floppy drives!), and hardly anybody bought it. But it laid the template for what would, within a decade, become world-conquering software.  Built on MS-DOS, Microsoft's operating system empowered users to point-and-click rather than type commands, and run multiple programs at once (theoretically: your PC would actually politely freeze most of them…), including Paint, Notepad, Calculator, and a game called Reversi. In this episode, Arion, Rebecca and Olly discover how Bill Gates and Paul Allen built their ambition to have a ‘computer in every home'; review Apple's flawed lawsuit against Microsoft for copying their technology; and reveal who was responsible for putting the word Microsoft in front of all their product names…  Further Reading: • ‘Microsoft Windows 1.0, where it all began (pictures)' (CNET, 2013): https://www.cnet.com/pictures/microsoft-windows-1-0-where-it-all-began-pictures/ • ‘From Windows 1 to Windows 10: 29 years of Windows evolution' (The Guardian, 2014): https://www.theguardian.com/technology/2014/oct/02/from-windows-1-to-windows-10-29-years-of-windows-evolution• ‘Microsoft Windows 3.1 promo' (Microsoft, 1986): https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pyg-DYm7b0A Thanks so much for supporting the show!
