There has been growing speculation in recent months that Bollywood superstar Aamir Khan is working on his next project after starring in Laal Singh Chadha. New reports suggest that Khan is indeed working on a project titled Sitaare Zameen Par. The film's reported name has already sparked a lot of speculation among fans, who are questioning whether it's a remake or sequel to Khan's acclaimed 2007 film Taare Zameen Par. The plot revolves around a sports coach and his heartwarming bond with a team of differently-abled children. Further details about the project have been kept under wraps.
Brenden Schaeffer discusses the report by Katie Woo that the Cardinals are moving toward a contract extension with closer Jordan Hicks. Does it make more sense for the Cardinals to trade Hicks than it does to commit millions of dollars to a relief pitcher over a multi-year deal? We discuss all angles of the decision facing St. Louis as the trade deadline approaches. --- Send in a voice message: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/bschaeffer12/message

This is a thing we're doing now, so keep an eye open for those.It had been ages since we last had a proper catch-up with The B, so we invited him back on the show to talk about what he's been playing recently, get distracted by food, and talk about Nightdive Studio's Shadow Man Remaster. Along the way, we discuss the Sony "timebomb" built into all PS3, PS4, and PS5 consoles, Xbox GamePass, and how this year's E3 will be differentHere's a sample of the full show notes - make sure to click through and check them out.Content WarningTowards the end of the second half of the episode (around the 33 minute mark), we discussed the games that Jay had been playing. He had been playing the Nightdive Studio remaster of Shadow Man; this is a very dark game, and the content that we discuss for this game is very dark in nature. We would recommend that you don't let little ones listen to this part of the episode.Please listen responsibly.Show NotesIt had felt like ages since we last had The B on the show (but we'd last had him on at the start of 2021 - for episode 99) so we invited him back and had a bit of a catch-up. But that had to wait until after Jay had forgotten the feed like for SquidgeHello Squidgey! How are you Squidgey?- JayAnd of course, The B starts yammering on about how much he loves a certain Portuguese chicken restaurant (something something cheeky nindos). To be fair, we would not turn down a free Nindos (yes, the typos are intentional).We wasted no time at all in getting to the heart of the matter, and that was:Recent GamesThe Recent Games segment will not be new to listeners, but in case you're new to the show here's how it goes: we go round the table and discuss one or more game that we've been playing recently, and whether we think it's worth the listeners checking it out. We continue to do this until we've run out of games to discuss.The B's Recent GamesCall of Duty: WarzoneThe B said that he had started this one “more out of curiosity” than anything else (I wonder whether that was "curiosity about whether he had the hard-drive space" - Jay)OutridersAnd from his description, this seemed like a fun game with a forgettable story (SPOILERS! - Squidge). But it's not something that B would be happy calling “Square-Enix's take Destiny 2” becauseI'd like to say "Square-Enix's take on a Destiny game." Although they did, kind of, have that with The Avengers - once you get through the main story. Because Avengers has a very similar thing.- The BBut how forgettable was the story?Barely a week from completely the story, and I couldn't really remember most of it- The BThat's harsh! But possibly true.Full Show NotesMake sure to check out the full show notes for more discussion on the points we raise, some extra meta-analysis, and some links to related things.Have you played the games we have been playing this month? Do you agree with The B's assessment of Outriders? Have you played the game that Squidge had played? What about the one that Jay has been playing?Let us know on Twitter, Facebook, leave a comment on the show notes or try our brand new contact page.LinksHere are some links to some of the things we discussed in this episode: The_B on Twitter The B's current (at the time of the episode's release) writing gigs VideoGamer.com PlayStation Trophies Xbox Achievements Sony is Reportedly Working on the CMOS Problem That Will Brick All PS4 and Digital PS5 ConsolesThis is something that will affect all PS3, PSP, and PS vita consoles too Tim Haywood's BandCamp pageHe wrote all of the music for Shadow Man And have you left us a rating or review?

Show Notes 1) Facebook Announces Major Updates to Ads Manager The updated Ads Manager interface is designed to feel familiar without sacrificing any capabilities advertisers enjoyed from the old Power Editor or Ads Manager. “By focusing our efforts on improving a single platform, we hope to bring greater efficiency to our advertisers.” 7 Major Updates for Facebook Advertisers 2) Twitter is Reportedly Working on a 'Tweetstorm' Feature This, reportedly, is an in-development Twitter function which would enable you to type streams of content, beyond 140 characters, which the tool would then separate into numbered tweetstorms, without you having to do so yourself. Need features for news users, not power users. Cons: Flat 328M MAU while FB increases (+2 b), LinkedIn (500 million) Pros: 74% of users use Twitter as a news source 3)Pinterest crosses 200 million monthly active users In April, the company said it hit 175 million monthly active users, so it seems it's been able to grow pretty methodically in the past year or so. That's going to be a good sign for the company, which set some very ambitious targets in early 2015 but has since had to recalibrate it. Pinterest recently raised a $150 million financing round at a $12.3 billion valuation. With that financing round, Pinterest was making a full-court press into visual search, which it is trying to pitch as its core competency. More than 75% of sign-ups are coming from outside the U.S. now as it makes a big push internationally. More than half of its users come from outside the U.S., and impressions for the app grew 50% year-over-year. 4) New AdWords UAC Feature: The Creative Asset Report We're also excited to tell you about a new feature in UAC called the Creative Asset Report. This feature will let you understand what creative assets are working with your audience. Add assets like text and videos and Google tells you what is working. Would be cool if they did this for text ads. You write a headline and copy and give sitelinks and they mix and match. They kinda do this with dynamic ads? 5) Display Advertising Stats 2017: SEMrush Study Whether you are tentatively planning your first display advertising campaign or can already create one in your sleep, you will still need data to come up with an effective action plan. Leaderboard - spend your time optimizing that ad size. 6) [Chart] How Marketers Are Deciding Where to Put Their Media Dollars More than three-quarters of survey respondents said that they look at the channels that best reach their target audience when determining media budget allocations, per the report. 36% channels that our mgmt trusts Cross-channel (digital & traditional): 21%; TV: 20%; Cross-device (online & mobile): 19%; Online advertising (desktop/mobile): 16%; Mobile advertising & apps (13%); and Other traditional media (11%) 7) New Ads Reporting Feature in Quora Ads Manager Many of our advertising partners have been asking for a way to receive ongoing performance reports for their ad campaigns. To start addressing those needs, we've launched a new feature that will enable you to receive a one time or ongoing scheduled .csv file of daily campaign data at the individual ad level. This will enable you to leverage the most granular data we can provide in any analysis tool of your choice to better understand how your campaigns are performing. You can effectively slice and dice the data how you'd like, to understand your campaigns better. Check out the feature on the new "Email Reports" tab of your ads manager. The feature does not currently provide the ability to aggregate campaign data higher than the ad level, but you can filter down to only receiving the daily ad level data for a given campaign, ad set, or ad. --- Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/the-ppc-show-podcast/message
