Prolific video essayist FD Signifier returns to Bad Faith Pod for a comprehensive analysis of the controversy surrounding left electeds' abandonment of 2020 era policy commitments and principles coined "Woke 1" by New York City Council member Chi Ossé, and made viral by AOC on the Sunday news last weekend. While members of the Platner left have argued that rejecting "woke one" simply means abandoning the excesses of cancel culture and identitarian jargon like "Latinx," several DSA candidates or electeds, from Francesca Hong and William Lawrence to AOC and Zohran Mamdani himself, have explicitly rejected firm BLM-era policy commitments like defund the police. And some, like Lawrence and AOC, even explicitly rejected their DSA affiliation in part or in whole. This brings a question we've been asking for about a year now front and center: Is it worth it to "win" if you have to sacrifice your principles to get there? If Zohran can do such a 180 on defund, how much confidence do we have with respect to his solidarity with Palestine? Why call yourself "socialist" if you're unwilling to stand behind the DSA platform, or if you're going to become an NPYD booster? And how did the left media ecosystem let this happen? Does "winning" within the Democratic party, in fact, help the left? Find Bad Faith on Apple, Spotify, Stitcher, and Google Podcasts. Or subscribe to our RSS feed.

I'm psyched to welcome Easy Honey to Roadcase for Part 3 of my interviews from Lollapalooza which took place in the heart of Chicago a few weekends ago. I sat down with the full band and it was really great to get to know this close-knit group of friends (and brothers)! Easy Honey is Selby Austin, Webster Austin, Darby McGlone and Charlie Holt, and these guys have been absolutely crushing it recently with their Surf Tour on the back of their latest EP, Plaid.Easy Honey's vibe is reflective of their easy-breezy rock vibe and they're as chill as you would expect. Originally from Eastern Tennessee with Selby and Darby forming an instant connection in college, they added the two remaining members and relocated to Charleston, SC — and hence their surf-rock and connection to community were officially solidified.

This week, we are sharing an historic conversation among Ohio comic book royalty: Prolific, award-winning creators Brian Michael Bendis and Marc Andreyko. The conversation was moderated by Mike Sangiacomo, one of the Founders of the Siegel and Shuster Society. Recorded live on July 11, 2026, at the Cleveland Public Library as part of the weekend-long Icons Fest held in conjunction with the Icons in Ink: The Jewish Comics Experience exhibit at the Maltz Museum of Jewish Heritage (on display until August 23, 2026). Growing up together in Northeast Ohio, Bendis and Andreyko first teamed up as friends to create the true crime comic book series Torso, the story of the "Torso Murders" in Cleveland in the 1930s when Eliot Ness was the city's Safety Director. Their wide-ranging conversation included stories about their early collaboration and the on-going challenge of bringing Torso to the screen, their storied careers in the comic book and entertainment industries, and Cleveland Public Library's role in Bendis's decision to go to DC to write for Superman. Brian Michael Bendis was born in Cleveland, took classes at Cleveland Institute of Art, and did work for several Cleveland-area newspapers and magazines in his early career. He has co-created characters like Miles Morales, Jessica Jones, and dozens of others that populate the Marvel, DC and all-new original universes. He is a New York Times bestseller and has won numerous awards for his work, including multiple Eisner Awards and a Peabody for Jessica Jones. Bendis was Executive Producer of the Academy Award winning hit Spider-Man: Into the Spider-Verse. Bendis' fabled move to DC Entertainment after nearly two decades at Marvel made international headlines, making his DC debut in the landmark Action Comics 1000. Bendis continues to be a prolific creator, producer, Marc Andreyko grew up in Mentor, graduated from Mentor High School, and co-created the character Kate Spencer/Manhunter for DC and was the original writer on Wonder Woman '77. He has written comics for Dark Horse, DC, IDW, Image, and Marvel. Michael Sangiacomo is a long-time writer of articles on Superman and the comics industry for the Cleveland Plain Dealer. In 2006, he penned an article that urged Cleveland to embrace the creators of Superman, Jerry Siegel and Joe Shuster, and this led to the creation of the Siegel and Shuster Society of which he was a founding board member. Sangiacomo has also taught comic book history at Case Western Reserve University and is a comics writer himself.

Prolific serial killer, Israel Keyes, is often remembered for the murder that led to his capture in Alaska. But years before his arrest, he lived on Washington's remote Olympic Peninsula, worked in Neah Bay, and, according to the FBI, may have murdered several unidentified victims whose names remain unknown. In this episode of Crime Off the Grid, we explored the lesser-known chapter of the Israel Keyes story. We follow his years on the Olympic Peninsula, including the suspected victim hidden beneath Lake Crescent in Olympic National Park, and separated verified facts from internet myths. We also look at Keyes' meticulous planning, his infamous "kill kits," and the haunting blood-drawn skulls discovered after his death.Could some of Israel Keyes' victims still be hidden in America's public lands? More than a decade later, that mystery remains unsolved.Sources:Alaska Serial Killer Attended Racist Church, Knew Terrorists Israel Keyes: Biography, Serial Killer, Murderer, CriminalIsrael Keyes - Wikipedia https://murderpedia.org/male.K/k/keyes-israel.htmIsrael Keyes: Writings — FBIWhat do skulls drawn in Israel Keyes' blood mean? - CBS NewsSupport the show!For bonus content join our Patreon!patreon.com/CrimeOfftheGridFor a one time donation:https://www.buymeacoffee.com/cotgFor more information about the podcast, check outhttps://crimeoffthegrid.com/Check out our Merch!!  https://in-wild-places.square.site/s/shopFollow us on Instagram https://www.instagram.com/crimeoffthegridpodcast/ and  (1) Facebook

The volume problem in AI is solved. Now it's all about data quality, and who gets to define it. Enzo Blindow is VP of Data & AI at Prolific, a platform that connects hundreds of thousands of people worldwide to the frontier labs and enterprises training and evaluating AI models. In this conversation with Liam, Enzo breaks down what actually goes into building high-quality training data, why models lean too hard into stereotypes, and the research Prolific published showing how easily AI can be nudged toward commercially motivated, and sometimes harmful, suggestions. They discuss why synthetic data hits a ceiling that only human data can break through, how a single mistranslated instruction can quietly corrupt an entire dataset, and why "good taste" might be one of the hardest things for AI to ever replicate. Key Topics Covered: Why data volume is a solved problem and quality is everything now How RLHF actually shaped early versions of ChatGPT Why AI models lean too heavily into stereotypes The asymmetry and hidden bias baked into internet-sourced training data Prolific's ICLR research on commercial pressure in AI models Who's responsible when AI models cause harm: labs vs. data providers Synthetic data's ceiling, and why humans still have to validate it What actually defines "taste" and why it's nearly impossible to model The risk of AI flattening nuance and marginalized perspectives Why human data is one of the most defensible moats in AI Enzo's own definition of what "data" really means Episode Timestamps: 00:00 Intro 00:21 What Prolific actually does 02:48 MCP vs. API vs. CLI access 04:19 How frontier labs started working with Prolific 06:40 Data volume vs. quality, and the role of RLHF 10:58 Who Prolific's biggest customers are 13:12 Why labs choose Prolific over other data vendors 16:13 Fact vs. opinion in AI training 19:02 Stereotypes and bias in AI models 21:15 Prolific's ICLR research on commercial pressure 23:36 Who's responsible: labs, governments, or data companies 27:22 How Prolific's data collection actually works 31:59 Synthetic data vs. human data 36:04 What defines "taste" in AI-generated content 39:33 Good taste vs. bad taste, and the risk of AI regression to the mean 42:36 Why Enzo joined Prolific 45:56 Blind spots most people have about training data 47:22 The "SaaSpocalypse" and data as a business moat 51:38 How Enzo visualizes "data" in his own mind 54:22 Why Enzo does what he does 57:16 Where to find Enzo and Prolific Connect with Enzo on LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/enzoblindow/ Partner Links Upgrade your AI toolkit: https://www.theaireport.ai/ai-executive-pass Subscribe to our free newsletter: https://newsletter.theaireport.ai/subscribe Join the community: https://community.theaireport.ai/checkout/the-ai-report-welcome-gift?coupon_code=WRTH Learn more about your ad choices.

This week on Million Dollaz Worth of Game, Gillie & Wallo sit down for one of the most powerful conversations in the show's history with Blacc Sam, Bino Rideaux, and BH to discuss "PROLIFIC" the long-awaited posthumous collaboration album from Nipsey Hussle and Bino Rideaux, arriving August 14. PROLIFIC is a 15-track project that Nipsey Hussle and Bino Rideaux recorded together in 2017 following the success of Nipsey's Grammy-nominated classic, Victory Lap. Years later, those closest to Nipsey believe the time is finally right for the world to hear this timeless body of work. Bino Rideaux shares never-before-heard stories about creating the album in the very same studio where this interview was filmed, reflecting on the creative energy, Nipsey's vision, and why the music still sounds as fresh today as it did when it was recorded. Blacc Sam opens up about preserving Nipsey Hussle's legacy, carrying on after losing a loved one, and shares heartfelt stories about Nipsey's character long before the world knew his name. Gillie, Wallo, and the team also reflect on what it truly means to keep someone's vision alive. This episode is a celebration of legacy for one of hip-hop's greatest voices. Rest in Peace to the late, great Nipsey Hussle. The Marathon Continues.

In a world of copy-paste pop hooks and AI-generated playlists, most independent musicians don't struggle with ideas, they struggle with being heard and standing out. Today's guest, Igor Keller, the songwriter and mastermind behind the band Longboat, has released 35+ albums and written 96 songs in a single year, all while refusing to write love songs or chase trends. Instead, he turns themes like revenge, technology, wealth inequality, and modern absurdity into highly narrative “revenge ballads” that sound like nothing else in your feed. In this episode of Marketer of the Day, Igor dive deep into Revenge Ballads, his Eastern European‑flavored concept album built around mythological betrayals, World War II stories, Slavic legends, and real-life payback. Igor breaks down how he structures albums around a single powerful idea, like the life of a musician, the dark side of technology, or revenge, and then crafts songs such as “Medea” and “The Last Voyage of the Gray Gull” to tell fully realized stories instead of generic “vibe” tracks. You'll hear how he keeps 15 songs moving through the same stages at once, so he can release more music without compromising on depth or quality. Rather than waiting for inspiration, Igor treats songwriting as a disciplined, repeatable process. He shares his 70% rule for quality control, why he genuinely likes every song that makes it onto an album, and how he balances volume with standards so nothing feels like filler. If you've ever wondered how a truly prolific artist thinks about arrangements, lyrics, and themes, you'll get a behind-the-scenes look at how Igor turns complex ideas, like concentration camps, self-driving cars, and billionaire culture, into songs that are actually coherent, meaningful, and emotionally resonant. Igor also takes a strong stand on AI music and what it means for real artists. While he's not afraid to use tools for basic tasks like spell-checking, he draws a hard line at letting AI “create” his work. To him, art is communication, and an AI band can't sit in the room with an audience, tell a true story, or convey lived emotion. In response, he's doubling down on human performance, converting his catalog into solo piano and voice arrangements, practicing for hours a day, and creating new music with a vibe reminiscent of Erik Satie. https://youtu.be/Cy-elDY-0EE?si=dorrD9xrgxyr10R- If you're a musician, creator, or storyteller who feels suffocated by formulaic content and algorithm-driven sameness, this conversation will show you another way: build a body of work around bold themes, set your own quality bar, and remember that art's real job is to communicate something that matters. Igor's motto, “Ultio et Pax” vengeance and peace, perfectly sums up his approach: intense, thoughtful, and unapologetically human. Quotes: “Art, music, visual art, film; is essentially communication, and you have to try to communicate something to your audience.” “Once you start singing them, you feel like you own them, they feel like they belong to you, and you're setting them free in the world.” “I have things to say, and it's important for me to say them to people; this is the best way I can think of at the moment to relate to an audience.” Contact Details: Visit Igor Keller's Facebook Page Listen, Watch, and Join the Longboat Journey Join the Longboat Crew on Instagram Follow The Great Longboat Podcast on Spotify Subscribe to Longboat on YouTube Tune In to The Great Longboat Podcast

To anyone who knew him, Matthew Falder seemed completely harmless.But behind that ordinary appearance, he was secretly operating on the dark web under the name “666devil”.

Garrett Morgan was a prolific inventor. He invented the gas mask. The three-way traffic light. The self-extinguishing cigarette. He even created a hair care line. But, as a Black man, he had to be creative in how he presented his inventions to the public. He knew that some people would refuse to buy his invention if they discovered that it had been invented by a Black man. So? Sometimes he hired white actors to play the role of Garrett Morgan. Sometimes he posed as his own assistant. In short, he did what he had to do to get people to take his inventions seriously.Remember, kids, history hoes always cite their sources! For this episode, Kristin pulled from: “Overcoming discrimination by consumers during the age of segregation: The example of Garrett Morgan,” by Lisa D.

"Hee hee. Ow!" Those are the noises you make when a laser from an alien spacecraft shoots you in 1967 Manitoba. Or when a diamond-shaped craft in rural Texas bathes you in radiation on a cold December night in 1980. Or when you're just trying to sleep on a Brazilian island and something called "Chupa Chupa" decides to use you as a snack. Those incidents -and hundreds like them = add up to something even stranger than the aliens, cryptids, or apparitions themselves. A pattern. A map. A theory that explains all of it. You're going to find out what that is in this episode. By the time you finish listening to this episode, perhaps by the time you've finished reading this sentence, this week's guest will have finished writing yet another fact-supported, heavily detailed, richly sourced book about ancient archaeology. Or alien sightings. Or religious apparitions. Or cryptids. Or climate shifts across the millennia. Yes, any of those topics. And yes, a full book. If Substack tried to contain the output of George Mitrovic, returning champion, it would crash like a saucer in '47. (Seriously, the Greys don't use Waymo?!) He's the HARDEST WORKING MAN IN FRINGE RESEARCH. Prolific, wise, witty, honest, and the unquestionable KING OF P.O.P. (Paranormal Observable Phenomena, i.e., a bunch of people have seen it and it's left physical traces. Saucers with souvenirs, Bigfoot leaving skidmarks, you get the picture). With over 150 books, one of the highest measured IQs on his side of the world, and a lifetime of research, scholarship, data mapping, pattern recognition, and scientific analysis, George brings something unique to the world of paranormal research: a grand unifying framework for where and why paranormal events happen. Fully mapped, explained, and unlimited in its potential. In this episode, Greg sits down with George to get to the bottom of why this may be the most important scholarship on the unexplained that nobody is talking about. If you've ever wanted to traverse the multiverse, George's Sine Wave Theory is your ticket to other dimensions. You ARE the cryptid. We all are. George's Links:
