Read transcriptToday's episode continues our Combat Options series with a discussion on how "called shots" work in Palladium, with a heavy focus on the two major editions of Rifts. As with previous discussions on these options, we largely talk about how to do things using the rules as written, with minimal focus on house rules. Also, we want to give a big thanks to everyone for patience on getting the releases rolling again.

In this action-packed episode, Lee and Tara break down the hottest political and social stories sweeping the nation!

Animated by advances in Earth System Science, ecosocialist researchers have been rediscovering important insights from an older ecological framework called ‘metabolic rift theory'. This theory emphasizes that all life on earth lives in a dynamic two- way relationship with the earth's biosphere - that thin layer of living matter created by life to sustain life - that's exhibiting such increasing signs of distress these days. To explore the underlying causes of this distress, my guest on this episode of Planet Haliburton is Ian Angus, author of the 2026 book ‘Metabolic Rifts: Capitalism's Assault on the Earth System'.

Thaddeus McCotter. Democratic Party Discipline: Managing Candidate Crises and Ideological Rifts. McCotterexplores how the Democratic establishment "blew up" problematic candidates like Eric Swalwell to install figures like Xavier Becerra. He describes an ongoing "civil war" between the establishment and the Democratic Socialists of America (DSA), with leadership working to clear out radicals to appeal to mainstream voters. (13)

They explore the deep, sometimes invisible ways that capitalism disrupts the planet's fundamental life cycles –– from soil depletion and artificial fertilizers to the carbon cycle driving global warming.Ian traces the concept of “metabolic rift” from Marx and Engels through a long socialist lineage, making the case that ecological critique has always been central to the Marxist tradition. (Indeed, some Marxists might argue that “eco-” is an unnecessary qualifier; “socialism” is enough!)Steve brings up the MMT basics challenging the austerity narrative that blocks ecological reconstruction. He reminds us that the state, as the currency issuer, can de-commodify the essentials of life, namely food, water, housing, and healthcare. However, as Ian bluntly states: “The problem is that it's not our government, it's their government.” Reformism and electoralism are dead ends.While listeners may disagree with some of Ian's interpretations of Soviet history, those comments do not negate the episode's compelling analysis that capitalism's DNA demands endless accumulation and profit. Combating the ecological crisis is inseparable from the struggle to overcome capitalism.Ian Angus is founder and editor of the online ecosocialist journal, Climate & Capitalism and a founding member of the Global Ecosocialist Network. Among his many books are The War Against the Commons: Dispossession and Resistance in the Making of Capitalism (Monthly Review Press, 2023), A Redder Shade of Green: Intersections of Science and Socialism (Monthly Review Press, 2017) and Facing the Anthropocene: Fossil Capitalism and the Crisis of the Earth System (Monthly Review Press, 2016). His most recent is Metabolic Rifts: Capitalism's Assault on the Earth System. (Monthly Review Press, 2026),@ecosocialism1 on X

We're continuing this new exploration of combat rules options with an episode dedicated to one that - we've been told - doesn't get used nearly as often as it should these days.

Back again! The election cycle refuses to die, and neither do the political fireworks. This week Matt Paulson and District 15 Rep. Eric Muckey join the show to break down the Sioux Falls mayoral runoff, city council battles, and the increasingly blurry line between "nonpartisan" elections and partisan reality. We get into turnout predictions, endorsement drama, dark money accusations, and why Sioux Falls voters are heading back to the polls again. Plus, the crew debates whether anybody actually knows who their city councilor is and what that means for local politics.We also dive headfirst into the Republican gubernatorial runoff between Larry Rhoden and Toby Doeden, the fallout from Dusty Johnson's surprise loss, the role of negative advertising, and the growing influence of online political tribes. Along the way, there's plenty of convention chatter, speculation about statewide races, social media tough guys, dark money jokes, and a look at the Democrats' path forward. And of course, no Dakota Town Hall episode would be complete without a few burger recommendations and some good old-fashioned South Dakota political chaos.@DakotaTownHall@Jakeshoenbeck@MurdocJ Hosted on Acast.

We're back to another Rules Talk episode! This time, NPC presents a different take on handling the combat initiative flow in Palladium games, inspired by the "pair them off" concepts from the more recent rules books.

The latest batch of files relating to Peter Mandelson's appointment to be released is reflecting poorly on the UK's Labour Party. More than 1,500 pages of messages, emails, and other correspondence was released, and among them was criticism of Sir Keir Starmer by both Mandelson and other ministers. In May 2025, Mandelson told Minister Pat McFadden that Starmer “lacks verve”, and the same month, cabinet minister Pat McFadden criticised government policy on public spending and welfare, saying “every meeting I have is 'who can we tax in order to pay benefits to others." UK Correspondent Rod Liddle told Heather du Plessis-Allan that the files are uniquely embarrassing to the Labour Party. LISTEN ABOVE See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

You are probably wondering, what the heck is a Slurmph? Dustin is. He's a Slurmph. And he'll let you know, in case you forgot. It's time to meet Dustin and Edmundo, best friends forever! EDITOR'S NOTES: A couple of additional tech notes here. Ironically, although we all touted the great qualities of the alternate FX-heavy patron-exclusive renders at the end of this episode, there didn't end up being many moments worth adding sound effects to in this one. Additionally, due to some audio issues, this episode took a lot longer to edit than normal and I really wanted to get it out the door. So this time around, there is no alternate FX version. My apologies! If it's any consolation, since we just finished recording it, I can promise you that the next episode has a lot more effects. Also, due to the normal biological needs of the human body, Alex had stepped away from the table right before we closed out, and thus wasn't present when we were introducing ourselves. In case you were not aware, Henry is played by Alex. Thanks, Alex! Drop us a line! You can follow us (sporadically) on Facebook, and we'd love to see you on our Discord Channel too.

From Nightmare to Fan Fame: Heather Langenkamp's Hollywood Journey In this captivating episode of Reza Rifts, Keith sits down with one of horror cinema's most beloved and enduring icons Heather Langenkamp, the actress who gave the world Nancy Thompson in A Nightmare on Elm Street.  Far more than a trip down horror memory lane, this conversation is a genuine, wide-ranging exploration of what it means to build a life in Hollywood  from the grueling audition grind to the unexpected emotional weight of fame. Heather opens up about being cast by Wes Craven while still a student at Stanford University, what it was like to work alongside legends like Robert Englund, and how the Nightmare on Elm Street franchise became something far bigger and more meaningful than anyone could have predicted in 1984.  The conversation digs deep into the evolution of horror fandom how audiences have transformed from passive moviegoers into passionate, lifelong communities  and why Freddy Krueger resonates so deeply as a metaphor for the personal demons we all carry.  Heather also reflects on her I Am Nancy documentary, navigating career challenges as a woman in Hollywood, the surprising world of practical special effects through her company AFX Studio, and what she wishes she could tell her younger self.  Warm, funny, and full of genuine wisdom, this is the kind of conversation that reminds you why you fell in love with movies in the first place. Guest Bio Heather Langenkamp (born July 17, 1964, Tulsa, Oklahoma) is an American actress, filmmaker, businesswoman, and radio personality whose career has spanned more than four decades. A Stanford University student when she first auditioned for Wes Craven, Heather beat out over 200 actresses to land the role of Nancy Thompson in A Nightmare on Elm Street (1984)  a performance that would make her one of the most recognizable faces in horror history. Notable Works: A Nightmare on Elm Street (1984) — Nancy Thompson A Nightmare on Elm Street 3: Dream Warriors (1987) — Nancy Thompson Wes Craven's New Nightmare (1994) — Herself Just the Ten of Us (1988–1990) — TV Sitcom American Horror Story: Freak Show (2014) The Midnight Club (2022) — Mike Flanagan's Netflix series I Am Nancy (2011) — Executive Producer & Star The Life of Chuck (2025) Never Sleep Again: The Elm Street Legacy (2010) Co-Founder, AFX Studio (practical special effects) Follow Heather:

Conflict is part of being human. Disconnection happens. Emotional ruptures are unavoidable in close relationships. What truly matters is not whether rupture occurs, but how we return to each other after it. In this episode, host Gloria Lybecker & co-host Gail Donohue explore the tender, often misunderstood process of repairing emotional rifts and why true repair begins not with words, but with the nervous system. This conversation invites you to slow down and examine the difference between reactivity and resonance. Throughout the episode, Gail and Gloria draw from lived experience, interpersonal neurobiology, nervous system education, and relational healing work to show how emotional rupture can become a pathway to deeper trust. Whether you are a therapist, coach, healer, parent, partner, or simply someone committed to emotional growth, this conversation offers a grounded, compassionate approach to repairing connection—without bypassing your own nervous system needs.

What's the first thing that hooks you? Before the vocals kick in, before the chorus lands — it's that opening riff that either grabs you by the collar or lets you walk away. This week, your ever-enthusiastic host Jamie Ray sits down with the legendary Dame Judy D. to count down their Fave Five opening song riffs that stop you dead in your tracks.And here's the twist: we're keeping it off the fretboard entirely. No guitar heroes here — this episode is a love letter to the keys, the brass, the bass lines, and every other instrument bold enough to open a song without a six-string in sight.From the iconic to the unexpected, Dame Judy D. brings her signature wit and encyclopedic music knowledge to a list that might just change the way you listen to the first five seconds of a song.(And yes — we know. "Stairway to Heaven" is not on this list. Move on.)

This episode is part one of what turned into a two-parter, wherein we look at the Kickstarter for Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles and Other Strangeness Redux, and its deliverings. We start with a brief informal port-mortem on the project, and then dive right into our thoughts on all the many rewards we received from it. We don't go too deeply into the books themselves, though - that's in the next episode. Also, as a bonus for our supporters, there is a special short bonus session on our patron feeds (Ko-Fi and Pinecast) where we look at all the super awesome contents that came in the Ultimate Benefactor box!
