La función principal de la inteligencia es resolver problemas, aunque con demasiada frecuencia lo que hace es crearlos. Encontrar soluciones es una necesidad de todos los seres vivos. All life is a problem solving, escribió Popper. Cada órgano -los ojos, el estómago, el corazón, el cerebro- es una solución. Los seres vivos tienen que mantener la homeostasis, adaptarse al entorno, reproducirse. Los seres humanos hemosampliado el ámbito de lo problemático, porque añadimos alos problemas reales los problemas imaginados. Como decía en el podcast anterior, pregunta y problema sondos momentos de un mismo proceso. Preguntar es la actividad de dirigirse a alguien -o a uno mismo- pidiendo información. La pregunta o el problema son lo buscado, lo que dirige la búsqueda. También lo hace el proyecto, que anticipa el futuro. Solución o respuesta señalan el fin de la búsqueda. Son actividades consumatorias. Es evidente que la pregunta, el planteamiento del problema o el proyecto dinamizanla inteligencia, la obligan a trabajar. Su contrario es la “inteligencia inerte”, que no moviliza sus recursos, que se limita a repetir. Ni la pregunta, ni el problema, ni el proyecto son la culminación de la inteligencia.  Son solo medios para buscar soluciones. Abogo por una teoría de la “inteligencia resuelta”, de la que marcha con resolución y proporciona soluciones. Resolver un problema no es solo una tarea cognitiva. Hace falta valentía, tenacidad, capacidad de soportar el esfuerzo. Gracián decía que Velázquez pintaba “a lo valentón”, lanzándose al lienzo como un espadachín hacia el adversario. Es el mismo Gracián que escribió: “De nada vale que el entendimiento se adelante, si el corazón se queda”. La “inteligencia resuelta” ha de aunar ambas facultades. Las velas están desplegadas. Comienza la navegación. Atribuciones:“Erik Satie Gymnopedie No.1” – EddieHonch“Albinoni Adagio” – EdRecords“Schubert - Serenade” – PremiumBeatEntradilla y cierre: “The Comedy” de plaincaskMúsica de fondo: “Spy Jazz” de PremiumBeat

Our guest for Chapter 1 is John McMurray, chair of the Society for American Baseball Research (SABR)'s Deadball Era Research Committee. His essay, "September 1, 1906: A Pivotal Game Early in the Deadball Era," appeared in the Committee's newsletter, "The Inside Game," earlier this year. The game between the Philadelphia A's and the home team Boston Americans (now Red Sox) lasted 24 innings with the A's winning 4-1. The game featured many deadball era baseball features including speed, defense, strategy, moving the runners, crowd participation and heroic pitching with each starter pitching complete games in this marathon contest. McMurray paints a vivid picture of deadball era baseball at the turn of the last century by walking us through this amazing ballgame. In Chapter 2, Craig and Rex discuss blue dot fever that is causing artists in the pop music business to cancel shows and entire tours this summer.Join the Society for American Baseball Research (SABR) here:https://sabr.org/communityThis is a cbc.com story on the Live Nation Lawsuit discussed in Chapter Two:https://www.cbc.ca/news/investigates/live-nation-executive-exclusive-9.7191295Episodes featured: 220 - In an Instant It Was All Gone: The Ray Chapman Story w/ Scott H.

The A's won 4 AL pennants and 3 World Series titles from 1910 to 1914. Vic Willis, a Hall of Famer, lost 29 games pitching for the 51-103 Boston Nationals in 1905, not 26 games.Consider supporting Hooks & Runs by purchasing books, including those featured in this episode (if any were), through our store at Bookshop.org.

This week Work Of Wrestling host Tim Kail examines the role of motivation in the artist's life. First, he argues why you should stop listening to motivational speakers, successul celebrities, and social media gurus about motivation. Next, he explains how he's baked his artistic practice into his daily life thus removing the need to stay constantly motivated. Then he argues the artist examine their relationship with competition, and find a more sustainable fuel for the creative engine. And, finally, he discusses the ultimate motivating force, how artists are like explorers attempting to better comprehend the splendor of the real world. Follow on social media @WorkOfWrestling.

Warning: This episode contains descriptions of thoughts of suicide. Why is WrestleMania the perfect name for...well...WrestleMania? Work Of Wrestling host Tim Kail answers that question as only he can, with a moving story about his second manic-depressive episode in the Fall of 2020.  Tim's story reveals the unvarnished reality of clinical mania, how his enthusiasm for life felt like a psychedelic high, why he became obsessed with ancient religions, and what led to this shorter, milder experience of psychosis. If you are in need of emotional support call the Suicide and Crisis Lifeline at 988. Music provided by Premium Beat.  

For the first time in eleven years Work Of Wrestling host Tim Kail will not be watching or reviewing WrestleMania. In this special bonus edition of the podcast he explaines why, in detail. He also examines the divisive nature of WWE's business practices, how the company has transformed into a boutique tourist trap, and the destructive role social media plays in nudging us toward political and philosophical polarization.

If you've ever wondered whether AI will take over motion design or replace motion designers, you're not alone. Generative AI tools can transform the industry, but perhaps not as you expect.In today's episode, we sit down with motion designer and Creative Director Billy Woodward to cut through the noise. We discuss the tools, and bigger questions around creativity, authorship, and originality, as well as what this evolving technology really means for creatives.This conversation could easily become its own series—we barely scratched the surface. But whether you're excited, concerned, or somewhere in between, Billy shares thoughtful insights from someone actively experimenting at the intersection of art and AI, and we hope you enjoy his perspective.Our podcast celebrates Motion Ideation—the raw brainstorming, early-stage thinking and lightbulb moments that shape everything before a single design or keyframe exists. Because we believe great motion design starts with one Favorite Frame™ and the fresh ideas behind it.TIMESTAMPS:0:00 – Intro1:15 – Billy Woodward's Background2:54 – Billy's Favorite Frame™7:24 – Debriefing the Creative Brief9:36 – The Billy Woodward Preproduction Ritual13:32 – Traditional vs. AI Workflow33:46 – What Makes Something Art?37:25 – The Contentions Surrounding the Use of AI40:00 – Jurassic Park: A Case Study in Technological Advancement50:30 – A Call to Arms: Make All the Stories52:15 – Billy's Advice: Pay Attention to Stories54:52 – Biggest Challenges & Rewards from This Project56:50 – Favorite Frame™ Because…CONNECT & FOLLOW:Instagram → https://www.instagram.com/styleframesat/Twitter → https://twitter.com/styleframesatFacebook → https://www.facebook.com/styleframesatLinkedIn → https://www.linkedin.com/showcase/styleframe-saturdays-podcastTODAY'S GUESTS & RESOURCESBackslider Brand, https://www.backsliderbrand.com/Rolling Stone, https://www.rollingstone.com/ESPN, https://www.rollingstone.com/Cameron Crowe, https://www.imdb.com/name/nm0001081/Generative AI, https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Generative_AIAND Studio, https://www.andstudio.nyc/myPrize, https://myprize.us/James Harden, https://www.nba.com/player/201935/james-hardenDisney, https://www.disney.com/Pixar, https://www.pixar.com/Tom & Jerry, https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tom_and_JerryInvisible Ink by Brian McDonald, https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/216987401-invisible-inkRunway, https://runwayml.com/Ricky Powell, https://www.rickypowell.com/The Individualist, https://www.imdb.com/title/tt11905612/Pinterest, https://www.pinterest.com/Nano Banana 2, https://gemini.google/ca/overview/image-generation/?hl=en-CAMidjourney, https://www.midjourney.com/homeChatGPT, https://chatgpt.com/Claude, https://claude.ai/loginFreepik Tools, https://www.freepik.com/Bob Ross, https://www.bobross.com/Museum of Modern Art DC, https://americanart.si.edu/institution/museum-modern-art-6231Jurassic Park, https://www.imdb.com/title/tt0107290/The Last Star Fighter, https://www.imdb.com/title/tt0087597/Mandalorian, https://www.imdb.com/title/tt8111088/Stranger Things, https://www.imdb.com/title/tt4574334One Last Adventure: The Making of Stranger Things 5, https://www.netflix.com/title/81684720Hardcore History by Dan Carlin, https://www.dancarlin.com/hardcore-history-series/Common Sense by Dan Carlin, https://www.dancarlin.com/common-sense/*Riverside: https://riverside.fm/?utm_campaign=campaign_1&utm_medium=affiliate&utm_source=rewardful&via=styleframesatLofi Cassette by Harrison Amer (theme music licensed by Premiumbeat.com, https://www.premiumbeat.com/home)Permissions granted by the artist(s).Styleframe Saturdays is a Formerle-branded podcast, and part of the Formerle brand family.*By making a purchase through one of our affiliate links we will get a small commission at no additional cost to you.

Our guest this episode is Thomas W. Gilbert. His new book, "Death in the Strike Zone: The Mystery of America's First Baseball Hero" (David R. Godine, 2026), is the story of James Creighton, a young pitcher who pitched for amateur clubs in Brooklyn and is credited for inventing modern pitching. Gilbert's book is not only about Creighton's exploits on the field, but about the life and times of baseball in its earliest years - before the Civil War, before industrialization and before the game was played by professionals. Creighton died in October 1862 at age 21.Thomas W.

On July 10, 1932, after playing 3 double headers in 3 days, Connie Mack's Philadelphia A's faced the Cleveland Indians at Cleveland's League Park. Craziness ensued. The game and players set records that have never been, and are unlikely to be, broken or even approached. This is the story of that game.We discuss our sources after the outro music.Errata: The opening game at Cleveland Stadium was July 31, 1932, not July 21st.

 In this episode, we talk with Rob Miller, co-founder of Bloodshot Records and author of The Hours Were Long, but the Pay Was Low (3 Fields Books, 2025). Rob shares stories from the early days of building an influential indie label, the realities of DIY music culture, and what it really took to survive on passion, community, and very little money. It's an honest, funny look at the long hours behind independent music—and why it was all worth it. Rob is a Detroit native so of course we discussed Disco Demolition Night (Rob has an interesting angle as a Tiger fan) and why Lou Whitaker is not in the Baseball Hall of Fame.Rob Miller's website: https://www.robmillerwriting.com/Rob on Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/robmillerwriting/Rob Miller's Bloodshot playlist: https://tinyurl.com/Bloodshot011226Please consider supporting Hooks & Runs by purchasing books, including those featured in this episode (if any were), through our store at Bookshop.org.
