“The film you have just seen was an improvisation.” – Shadows (1959)This week, returning guest Robert Bellissimo joins us for a conversation on John Cassavetes' Shadows,, a landmark of American independent cinema.

Interview withMichael Walshe, Managing Director & CEO of MTM Critical MetalsSteve Ragiel, President of Flash Metals USAOur previous interview: https://www.cruxinvestor.com/posts/mtm-critical-metals-asxmtm-revolutionary-tech-could-supply-us-critical-gallium-needs-by-2025-6590Recording date: 15th May 2025MTM Critical Metals (ASX:MTM) has positioned itself for near-term production with several significant developments that strengthen its investment case. The company has secured a pre-permitted brownfield site in Texas's industrial corridor that bypasses lengthy regulatory processes, enabling commercial production by the end of 2025. This 20,000-square-foot facility of 40-foot ceilings provides immediate operational capacity and room for expansion."We have a very rapidly deployable technology. We can be running here in 8 months. And that compares favorably with mines and other refineries that will take 3-5 years," noted Steve Rio, President of U.S. Operations, highlighting a key competitive advantage that has garnered strong government interest.MTM's proprietary flash heating technology combines electrical-based energy with specialized chemistry to recover high-value metals like gallium and germanium from electronic waste and production scrap. The process is approximately 90% more energy efficient than conventional smelting techniques and allows for selective recovery of specific metals with over 90% purity.The company has established a robust commercial foundation with long-term supply agreements for electronic waste that include penalties for non-supply—a crucial provision that underpins their economic model. Similar agreements for gallium and germanium processing are being finalized with minimum floor prices to protect against market manipulation.MTM's dual business model includes a build-own-operate approach for high-value materials and a warranty-based licensing system for mineral processing applications. This strategy allows them to focus capital on high-margin opportunities while generating additional revenue streams. Recent meetings in Washington DC have yielded strong support from congressional representatives, with officials requesting MTM identify additional sites across different U.S. regions to establish geographic diversity in domestic metal recovery capabilities.For investors, MTM represents an opportunity to gain exposure to critical minerals with a faster path to revenue than traditional mining operations. The company's protected supply chain, energy-efficient technology, and alignment with national security priorities create a compelling investment case in a sector of growing strategic importance. The year-end commissioning target serves as a key milestone that could validate their innovative approach and potentially catalyze significant value creation.View MTM Critical Metals' company profile: https://www.cruxinvestor.com/companies/mtm-critical-metalsSign up for Crux Investor: https://cruxinvestor.com

Dr. Andreas Walther is a senior researcher for science and teaching at the Department of Clinical Psychology and Psychotherapy of the University of Zurich and clinical psychotherapist with the outpatient clinic for Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Behavioral Medicine of the Psychotherapeutic Centre of the University of Zurich. Andreas discussed the journey to his work focused on developing a treatment for men experiencing masculine or masked depression. He mentioned his father's struggle with depression and a serendipitous meeting with a graduate school advisor who needed a student to conduct research on men. Andreas' initial work was focused more on the effects of testosterone on mood in men, but increasingly his work led him to also integrate the investigation of masculinities into his research. He is currently conducting a clinical trial that involves the investigation of gendered depression in men. We discussed what this treatment looks like compared to a standard treatment for depression.   D83

These metals, including rare earth elements, are in high demand but are often sourced irresponsibly. Phoenix Tailings focuses on recycling metals from waste materials and traditional mining outputs to provide a more sustainable source of these essential metals, ensuring that they are processed in a way that minimizes environmental impact.As a company, Phoenix Tailings has already raised over $80 million and has built a team of experts dedicated to their mission of transforming the mining and metals production industry. Their work is not only driving the future of sustainable mining but also contributing to the broader goal of reducing the environmental footprint of industries like automotive, aerospace, and healthcare. Through partnerships with other industry leaders, Phoenix Tailings is expanding its impact and pushing for a global shift towards responsible sourcing and sustainable practices.About Nick MyersNick Myers is the CEO and co-founder of Phoenix Tailings, a company focused on transforming the mining and metals industry.

Over the last 5 years, we have had the privilege of bringing you stories of Pioneering musicians such as Bill Monroe, Sam Cooke, Johnny Cash, Lead Belly, Dolly Parton, Sister Rosetta Tharpe, Pete Seeger, Jean Ritchie and so many more.However, a recently shift was forced upon the American Songcatcher program. Our distributor, Spotify for Podcasters/Creators, has taken down 1/4 of our episodes on all platforms, with more likely to follow, as they have began to crack down on the rights and usage of songs. Although this program is strictly education-based, and we don't sell products or produce any notable revenue from these episodes, they don't see what we do as fair use. It's a big blow, as over a year's worth of our work is now gone from the convenient places to listen to them.And so, our standstill for the last 5 months has been one of great pondering, and a lot of work with our nonprofit ReString Appalachia, where we have just surpassed 700 instruments given to those who had them taken away from natural disasters. It's been decided that from now on, American Songcatcher will strictly focus on traditional song history, field recordings, and interviews. We embrace our new direction, and we hope you will too. All of the episodes will be available on our website, AmericanSongcatcher.com in the next month. We'll be back with some new content soon, thank you for your patience, see you next time on American Songcatcher.__Support Educational Programming:⁠Tax-Exempt Donations⁠Join the⁠ Patreon Community⁠One-time donations:⁠ Venmo⁠ or⁠ PayPal⁠Follow ⁠American Songcatcher⁠ on ⁠Instagram⁠ Credits: Nicholas Edward Williams - Production, editing, recording and distribution

Send us a textStepping into the world of advanced battery technology, this episode takes us to Kokomo, Indiana—the global headquarters of Green Cubes Technology. Here, we explore how lithium batteries are revolutionizing ground support equipment operations at airports worldwide.Jerry Crump and Darren Kiefer walk us through Green Cubes' fascinating journey from their 1986 beginnings in small power electronics to becoming leaders in lithium battery technology for material handling and GSE applications. Their transition makes perfect sense—both industries require batteries that serve dual purposes as power sources and equipment ballast, though the adoption curves have differed significantly between the two sectors.What truly distinguishes Green Cubes in the crowded battery market is their commitment to flexibility and customization. Rather than forcing customers to adapt to standardized products, they design solutions tailored to specific operational requirements. Their GSE SafeFlux battery system incorporates sophisticated protection mechanisms that prevent operation in potentially damaging conditions, such as charging when cells are below freezing or automatically throttling performance when temperatures rise too high.Perhaps most refreshing is their approach to data sharing. While many manufacturers lock customers into proprietary systems, Green Cubes makes battery data freely available to any telematics platform a customer might prefer. This open architecture eliminates the frustration of managing multiple dashboards and logins while empowering operators to make data-driven decisions about their fleets.With over 13,000 high-power systems deployed globally, their experience translates into batteries that perform reliably whether they're operating in the freezing temperatures of Minneapolis or the scorching heat of Phoenix. For airport operations seeking sustainable alternatives to conventional power sources, Green Cubes offers not just a battery, but a comprehensive power solution designed for the unique challenges of ground support equipment.Looking to electrify your GSE fleet or upgrade your existing battery systems? Discover how Green Cubes' approach to lithium technology could transform your ground operations' reliability, sustainability, and performance.Looking for reliable and flexible ground support equipment leasing solutions?

Sandeep Parikh shares his journey of resilience after being displaced by the LA wildfires, discussing how the disaster tested his strength as a father, husband, and creator while inspiring new approaches to filmmaking and community building.• Surviving the devastating LA wildfires that destroyed over 9,000 structures and left countless homes uninhabitable due to toxic contamination• Co-founding Eaton Fire Residents United to map toxin spread through affected neighborhoods when official support fell short• Maintaining creativity despite compounding challenges to Hollywood from pandemic, strikes, and now natural disasters• Pioneering crowdfunding success with culturally authentic projects like DesiQuest and the upcoming film "Vidhya's Guide for the Afterlife"• Building genuine creative relationships with fellow artists instead of constantly chasing validation from industry gatekeepers• Leveraging community support to maintain creative independence and ownership of artistic properties• Transforming personal trauma into art that connects with audiences seeking authentic representation• Using "all parts of the buffalo" – drawing on diverse experiences from computer science to improv to create unique workWhen the LA wildfires tore through Sandeep Parikh's neighborhood, destroying over 9,000 structures and rendering countless homes uninhabitable from toxic contamination, he faced the ultimate test of resilience. But true to his nature as a creator, he found ways to transform disaster into opportunity.From the ashes of displacement, Sandeep co-founded Eaton Fire Residents United, a grassroots organization mapping the spread of dangerous toxins through affected neighborhoods when institutional support fell short. This community-driven approach mirrors his philosophy as a filmmaker – finding unconventional paths when traditional structures fail.That spirit of innovation has defined Sandeep's career, from his early days breaking ground with web series like "The Guild" and "Legend of Neil," to his current success crowdfunding culturally authentic projects like "DesiQuest" and "Vidhya's Guide for the Afterlife." He reveals the strategic thinking behind these campaigns, including a brilliant live improv show that served as both entertainment and fundraising event.Beyond financial success, Sandeep values the creative independence this model provides. After spending ten years fighting to regain rights to earlier work, he cherishes maintaining ownership of his art while building direct connections with passionate audiences. His journey demonstrates how authentic community building can replace traditional gatekeeping in entertainment.Throughout our conversation, Sandeep shares invaluable wisdom for creators navigating uncertain terrain – the importance of establishing genuine relationships with fellow artists, using "all parts of the buffalo" by drawing on diverse life experiences, and measuring success through depth of audience connection rather than conventional metrics. Even in disaster's wake, he shows how creativity can thrive through resilience, community, and unwavering authenticity.Join this powerful exploration of creative perseverance in the face of unprecedented challenges, and discover how disaster can become a springboard for your most meaningful work yet.Check out Vidhya's Guide for the Afterlife on Kickstarter and follow Sandeep's journey through his Patreon where you can join his community of supportersWebsite: https://www.position2.com/podcast/Rajiv Parikh: https://www.linkedin.com/in/rajivparikh/Sandeep Parikh: https://www.instagram.com/sandeepparikh/Email us with any feedback for the show: spark@postion2.com

For 60 years, New York composer Steve Reich has been one of classical music's most celebrated revolutionaries. Pioneering minimalism in the 1960s, a musical style based on repetition and shifting rhythms, his strange experiments with cassette tape led to orchestral masterpieces – now performed around the world. His career has not only helped define the latest era of classical music, but had an enormous influence on pop, rock and electronica. He has helped shape 20th Century music in a way few can claim to match. To mark 60 years since his first major piece,1965's It's Gonna Rain, he takes Alastair Shuttleworth through the process and stories behind some of his greatest works, including Clapping Music, Different Trains and City Life. He also reflects on his legacy, his plans for the future and what, at the age of 88, still inspires him to compose

Visit our Substack for bonus content and more: https://designbetterpodcast.com/p/jordan-mechner As a kid in the 80's, Eli fell in love with games on computers like the Apple II, Commodore 64, and later the Amiga and Macintosh. One of the very first games he played was called Karateka, which was inspiring for the realistic movements of its digital karate antagonists, even on a black-and-green Apple II monitor. Our guest today, Jordan Mechner, created Karateka while an undergrad at Yale University in 1984, and it went on to be a commercial success. He followed it up with the game Prince of Persia (you'll hear a clip from the soundtrack in the introduction, which Jordan's father composed and which Jordan invented a way to transpose onto the Apple II's tinny speakers before game soundtracks were widespread on the machine). Jordan documented the creation of the game in a wonderful published version of his diaries called The Making of Prince of Persia, and we spoke with him about how he taught himself the skills to build successful video games in a pre-internet era, why he journaled about his work process (and what it taught him), and about his new graphic novel Replay, a memoir recounting his own family story of war, exile and new beginnings. Book & links mentioned Journals: Steven Soderbergh, Michael Palin, Brian Eno Hobonichi Techo John August The World of Yesterday, Stefan Zweig Bio Jordan Mechner is an American author, game designer, comic book artist, and screenwriter, best known for creating the iconic video game Prince of Persia in 1989. He relaunched the series with Ubisoft in 2003 and wrote the original screenplay for the film adaptation produced by Disney in 2010, Prince of Persia: The Sands of Time. This work is considered a timeless classic and has spawned a global transmedia franchise, with over 20 million games sold to date. Since 2017, Jordan has been living in France, where he made his debut as a full author with his autobiographical graphic novel Replay. Among the albums he has written are Monte-Cristo (with Mario Alberti), Liberté! (with Étienne Le Roux and Loïc Chevallier), and Templiers (with LeUyen Pham and Alex Puvilland), which appeared on the New York Times bestsellers list. His latest works were first published in French, with English editions following in 2024. Jordan's video games, such as Karateka (1984) and The Last Express (1997), are recognized for their cinematic storytelling and innovative use of rotoscoping. In 2017, he received the Pioneer Award from the International Game Developers Association. Jordan also wrote and directed Chavez Ravine: A Los Angeles Story, an award-winning documentary broadcast on PBS. He has published his development journals, The Making of Karateka and The Making of Prince of Persia, as well as an adaptation of the Persian tales Samak the Ayyar. A passionate artist, he keeps a sketchbook journal, regularly sharing his thoughts and drawings, a testament to his love for art and storytelling. *** Premium Episodes on Design Better This is a premium episode on Design Better.
