“I don't think any of us ever arrives. I don't think any of us ever gets to master level.” There comes a point in every business when you have to stop and ask: Is this still working? Is this still energizing me? And, perhaps most importantly, is this still the best way to serve the people I'm here to serve? Sometimes the answer isn't a pivot or a complete reinvention. Sometimes it's an evolution – a new way of doing what you've always believed in, one that better fits the season you're in now. In this episode of the Inside Story podcast, I'm taking you behind the scenes of a pretty significant evolution happening inside LIGHTbeamers as we approach our 11th anniversary. I've been experimenting with our new live Rooms for the past couple of months, and what I've discovered through that experience has given me a whole new level of clarity about where we're going next – and why I believe we need a place like The Story Studio. In this episode, I'm sharing: Why I knew the old way of doing community wasn't working anymore – and what I decided to do about it. After more than a decade of building community on Facebook, I realized it was time for something different. What six to eight weeks of experimenting with the Rooms taught me about what women are really craving right now. And honestly? It wasn't another course, another resource, or another thing to consume. Why I believe we need spaces where we're allowed to be messy, unfinished, and imperfect. The Story Studio isn't about showing up polished. It's about getting in the room and getting the reps. The surprising lesson I learned from Robin's experience in the Listening Room. Sometimes the most powerful thing you can give someone isn't more information – it's an audience willing to listen. Why real human connection matters more than ever in the age of AI. When we can't always tell what's real online anymore, there's something incredibly refreshing about getting into a room with actual humans and having a real-time conversation. How my own podcast became my practice room – and why I want to give you that same kind of space. I didn't start this podcast because I had mastered storytelling. I started it because I needed somewhere to practice. Why LIGHTbeamers isn't disappearing – it's simply moving homes. The Story Studio is the next evolution of our community, and I'm opening the doors at $11/month to celebrate 11 years of LIGHTbeamers. The Story Studio is officially becoming the new home of the LIGHTbeamers community, and I'm so excited about what we're building here. If you're ready for a place to practice your story, your writing, your speaking, your podcasting, or simply your visibility – and you want to do it alongside other women who are putting in the reps too – I would love to have you inside. Come join me for the Story Studio Rooms and see what we're all about at lightbeamers.com/rooms. And as we head into this next chapter together, my challenge to you is the same one I'm giving myself: don't settle for 10. Let's go to 11.

In this hour, Adam Crowley, Dorin Dickerson and Pat Bostick assess different Steelers' players across all positions ahead of the upcoming preseason game on Thursday against the Green Bay Packers. August 13, 2026, 7:00 Hour
Original Air Date: August 16, 2025 Re-Air Date: August 15, 2026 Episode Number: 471Episode SummaryFour topics this week. Dan opens with a segment on AI, the trades, and why professional painters are on the safe list of jobs that technology won't replace. Then a deck safety segment covering what actually causes collapses and a quick inspection checklist you can run through today. After that, a breakdown of efflorescence -- the white powdery stuff on basement walls that looks like mold but isn't -- including what causes it, why painting over it doesn't work, and how to actually fix it. The episode closes out a multi-week series on room exposures with a full guide to choosing paint colors for west-facing rooms, including eight to nine specific Benjamin Moore recommendations.Timestamps[00:00] -- Welcome and Preview[00:50] -- AI and the Trades[03:07] -- Why Painting Matters[07:11] -- Deck Safety Basics[10:03] -- Deck Failure Causes[14:08] -- Quick Deck Inspection[18:41] -- Basement White Powder[19:33] -- Efflorescence Explained[21:19] -- Fix Moisture and Repaint[24:47] -- West-Facing Color Guide[34:05] -- Best Colors and Samples[38:06] -- Wrap UpAI and the Trades [00:50]Dan opens with a Microsoft study ranking the top 40 jobs most at risk from AI and the top 40 considered safest. The at-risk list included customer service reps, writers, paralegals, web developers, and some programming roles. The safe list: caregivers, cleaners, roofers, pipe fitters, plumbers, plasterers -- and right in the middle of the mix, professional painters.The common thread across all the safe jobs is that they require hands-on work, real skill, human judgment, and a physical presence on site. No matter how capable the technology gets, it can't paint a house.Dan talks about his son Andrew, now in his second summer on a painting crew. He came in with no experience. Within a few weeks he was confidently working off extension ladders. By the end of that first summer he could handle almost anything thrown at him. What struck Dan wasn't just the skill -- it was something Andrew said about how satisfying it is to finish a job and stand back and see the actual before and after. A faded house that looks good again. That's different from the kind of satisfaction Dan gets at work, where some days it feels like moving digital ideas from one folder to another.The broader point: trades are going to keep requiring real people. Dan thinks the human touch is only going to become more valuable as more of the world goes digital. AI might help a plumber or electrician diagnose a complex issue, but somebody still has to show up and do the work.What Causes Deck Collapses [10:03]Deck collapses are genuinely rare -- the US Consumer Product Safety Commission estimates around 6,000 injuries per year tied to deck, porch, stair, and balcony failures. But because decks are elevated, when something does give way, injuries are almost guaranteed.One of the most well-known incidents was a 2003 Chicago collapse where a third-story wooden deck gave way under a group of people. The weight brought two lower decks down with it. Thirteen people died and 57 were injured.The most common failure point is the ledger board -- the board that connects the deck directly to the house. If flashing wasn't installed correctly or has failed over time, water gets behind the ledger and starts rotting the rim joist it's fastened to. Once the rim joist softens, the bolts anchoring the ledger can pull free. The ledger can look completely solid from the outside while the wood it's bolted into is already compromised.In older decks -- especially those built before building codes were updated in the early 2000s following the Chicago collapse -- the ledger board may have been fastened with plain nails rather than bolts or lag screws. Over time those nails can loosen or rust, leaving a deck looking solid while hiding a serious structural weakness.Other common failure points:Railings that aren't fastened into proper framing -- these tend to fail when someone leans their full weight against themPosts that are buried directly in soil rather than resting on concrete footings, where they can rot from below without showing any visible signMetal connectors -- joist hangers, bolts, screws -- that are rusted, missing, or weren't installed correctlyA deck that looks perfectly fine on the surface can be hiding significant problems underneath all of these.Quick Deck Inspection Checklist [14:08]This takes 10 to 15 minutes and is worth doing today if you haven't done it recently. Ideally it's an annual spring task, but any time works.Walk the deck surface. Pay attention to how it feels underfoot. Do boards bounce or feel springy? Are any warped, uneven, or soft?Test the railing. Give it a firm push -- don't lean your full weight on it as the test, but put enough pressure to check whether it's solid. Wobbling or creaking means it needs attention.Check the ledger board. If you can get safely underneath the deck, look where it connects to the house. Is the flashing intact? Are there signs of rot, water damage, or staining on the house wall or the ledger itself? And look at how it's attached -- if you see only nails and no bolts or lag screws, that connection should be reinforced.Probe suspicious wood. A screwdriver or small awl pressed into any wood that looks questionable -- joists, posts, the ledger -- will tell you a lot. If the tip sinks in a quarter inch or more with light pressure, that indicates rot and warrants further investigation.Check the posts. Make sure they're sitting on concrete footings, not buried directly in soil. Look for cracking, shifting, or movement at the base.Inspect the hardware. Look for rusted or missing screws, nails, or joist hangers. Anything corroded should be tightened or replaced with corrosion-resistant hardware.If the deck is over 15 to 20 years old, or was built before the 2003 code updates, or if anything in the inspection looks questionable, bring in a licensed contractor for a closer look. And if the deck just needs a refresh -- cleaning and a coat of wood protector -- stop into any RepcoLite and they'll walk you through the right products.Efflorescence: The White Powder on Your Basement Walls [19:33]If you've noticed white chalky streaks or fuzzy white buildup on your basement's concrete block or poured concrete walls, it probably startled you a bit. It looks like something is growing. It's not mold. It's efflorescence, and it's actually pretty common.What it is. Efflorescence is salt deposits forming on masonry surfaces. Water moves through the wall, picks up mineral salts from the concrete or block as it travels, and when it reaches the surface and evaporates, it leaves those salts behind. Sometimes it's a light dusting. Other times it's streaks or crusty fuzzy buildup that looks pretty alarming.What causes it. Moisture. If you have efflorescence, there is a moisture issue somewhere. It could be coming from outside -- poor drainage, clogged gutters, improper grading around the foundation. It could be coming from inside -- vapor movement through the space. Wherever it's coming from, the moisture has to be addressed or the efflorescence will keep coming back.Dan's own situation: his house had no gutters, so rainwater poured straight off the roof at the foundation. Once he installed gutters, the moisture problem went away and the efflorescence stopped.How to clean it. A stiff brush and plain water handles mild cases. For stubborn buildup, a diluted solution of white vinegar or a masonry cleaner specifically formulated for efflorescence will get it off. Follow the label directions and wear protective gear -- some of these cleaners are acidic.The critical mistake to avoid. Cleaning is only treating the symptom. If you paint over active efflorescence without fixing the moisture source, the moisture and salt will continue working toward the surface and will bring the paint with them. Blistering, peeling, paint failure. Dan learned this firsthand -- he painted over it the first time thinking it might solve things. It did not. He had to deal with peeling paint on top of the original problem.The right sequence. Fix the moisture source first. Then clean the efflorescence completely. Then let everything dry thoroughly. Then repaint.For bare, never-painted concrete or block walls: WaterBlock from Insl-X is worth knowing about. It's a water-blocking product that, when applied to unpainted masonry under the right conditions, can prevent a certain level of moisture from working through the wall. Stop into RepcoLite and ask about it -- there are specific application conditions that have to be met for it to work correctly.Choosing Paint Colors for West-Facing Rooms [24:47]This is the final installment of a series on how room orientation affects paint color. Previous episodes covered north-facing, south-facing, and east-facing rooms.The challenge with west-facing rooms. They're cool, shaded, and a little flat in the morning -- the sun is rising on the opposite side of the house. By mid-afternoon and into early evening, dramatic warm golden light pours in, carrying strong amber and orange undertones. That subtle beige you loved at noon might look...
Caldwell's Jarred “Box” Grove is back on Gun Talk Nation for a wide-ranging conversation with Ryan Gresham — starting with the gun room he's building into his new house (nearly a quarter of the square footage, with a 100-yard range off the back porch) and the real-world tradeoffs of designing a home around a serious collection. From there they get into Box's manufacturer's FFL and SOT, what it actually takes to deal in firearms and full-auto post samples the right way, and why the paperwork discipline matters as much as anything else in that world.The conversation also covers Box's other hobby, off-roading and Jeep builds, and how it compares to guns as a money pit. He walks through some of the more unusual firearms he's built over the years, and closes out talking about what's new at Caldwell — including the Claycopter and UFO Clays, and how they're getting more families and kids into clay shooting.

As lifestyles evolve, so does home design. Homeowners want flexible spaces, more privacy, stronger connections to the outdoors and finishes that reflect their personal style. The result is a shift toward homes that aren’t just attractive but also work for the way people actually live. Kelley Collins, design studio manager with Ashton Woods, recently joined Carol Morgan on Atlanta Real Estate Forum Radio to discuss how thoughtful design can balance function, personality and timeless style — and why the best homes don’t necessarily follow the latest trend. Home Design Starts With How People Live “We always joke that your lighting is like jewelry for your favorite outfit,” Collins said. Lighting can transform a room, highlight architectural features and draw attention to artwork or other focal points. But good design goes beyond what catches the eye. It starts with understanding how people will use a space. That has become particularly important as more people work, study, exercise and spend time at home. Rooms that once served a single purpose now may need to accommodate a home office, classroom, playroom, workout area or guest space. Flex Rooms Give Homeowners More Options Flex rooms offer a clear example of home design adapting to changing needs. A home office today could become a study space for a child tomorrow. A playroom could eventually become a hobby room, exercise area or guest room. Adaptability matters even more for multigenerational households. Rising living costs have contributed to more families living with parents or in-laws, making privacy and separation increasingly important. Doors, finished basements and multipurpose rooms can help families accommodate more people without making everyone feel like they’re living on top of each other. For homebuyers, it’s worth looking beyond how a floor plan works today. Consider how a room could serve the household five or 10 years from now. Open Floor Plans Meet the Need for Privacy Open-concept living remains popular, but the way people use their homes has prompted a closer look at privacy. An open kitchen, dining and living area can make entertaining easier and create a strong sense of connection. But when several people work, study or relax at the same time, too much openness can become a challenge. Interior doors, pocket doors and strategically placed private rooms can provide some separation without giving up the benefits of an open layout. Rather than choosing between open and closed floor plans, homeowners increasingly want a balance between shared spaces and places to retreat. Personalization Should Go Beyond Trends Personalization plays an important role in the design process, but it looks different for every homeowner. Some buyers want to customize nearly every selection. Others prefer a more restrained palette and use one or two features, such as a distinctive backsplash or lighting fixture, to make the home feel like their own. The goal is to create a cohesive design that reflects the homeowner without relying too heavily on a short-lived trend. “If they do have that bold design or that style that they want to incorporate, they really do it with intention,” Collins said. That doesn’t mean homeowners need to avoid bold choices. Instead, they should consider how those choices fit into the rest of the home and whether they’ll still feel right years from now. Timeless Design Can Still Evolve Home design trends constantly change. Cabinet colors have moved from dark finishes to gray and white and are now shifting toward warmer tones. Light and medium wood tones and off-white finishes are gaining popularity as gray and stark white interiors become less dominant. Trend cycles make timeless design valuable. Buyers want their homes to feel current, but they also want to feel comfortable with their choices years after construction ends. A neutral foundation provides flexibility, while lighting, furnishings, artwork and hardware can add personality and allow homeowners to update their spaces over time. Design for Durability and Everyday Life A beautiful home also needs to hold up to everyday life. Flooring and countertops offer good examples. Natural hardwood remains popular, while engineered luxury vinyl flooring attracts buyers who value durability. Quartz continues to appeal to homeowners who appreciate its consistency and low maintenance, even as designers continue to value the character of natural stone. Aesthetics are only part of the decision. Families with children, pets or frequent guests may prioritize different materials than homeowners looking for a low-maintenance second home or an entertainment-focused space. The Kitchen Remains the Heart of the Home For all the changes in home design, some priorities remain remarkably consistent. In the kitchen, an island can provide food preparation space, seating, a gathering point for family and friends and a place for homework or casual conversation. Other features, such as spa-inspired showers, reflect the same desire to make everyday spaces more enjoyable. Ultimately, good design isn’t just about making a room look good. It should make the room work better, too. Trust the Design Process For buyers building a new home, the number of decisions can quickly become overwhelming. Flooring, cabinets, countertops, tile, lighting and fixtures all contribute to the final result. A design professional can help homeowners understand how individual selections work together and where to focus their investment. Instead of making every decision at once, buyers can work through selections step by step and build a cohesive design. The Future of Home Design Will Follow Lifestyle No one can predict exactly which colors, materials or architectural features will dominate home design five or 10 years from now. Trends will continue to change. What we can predict is that homes will continue to adapt to the people who live in them. Flexible rooms can accommodate changing needs. Private spaces can balance open gathering areas. Outdoor living can extend a home’s usable space. Personalization can make a house feel distinctly like its owners. The most enduring design principle may be the simplest: Start with how people live and design from there. The goal is to create a home that represents the homeowner so well that “10 years down the road they still love their home.” That may ultimately separate a home that simply follows a trend from one that continues to feel right long after the trend has passed. To learn more about home design trends and how lifestyles influence the way homes are built, listen to the full episode of Atlanta Real Estate Forum Radio.

I interviewed Mads Damsbo & Laurits Flensted-Jensen about Dark Rooms on Saturday, August 30, 2025 at Venice Immersive in Venice, Italy. Here is the story synopsis for Dark Rooms: "Dark Rooms is an exploration of human psychology through the prism of sexuality. The viewer and two other participants are invited to explore four inner spaces, each one a private, intimate story told and co-created by real people. A unique, embodied experience, guiding the users step by step into the heart of human desire and the shadows it casts. Dark Rooms is a sensory, site-specific and immersive installation that confronts the audience with their own bias and boundaries, exposing our deepest longings and the forces that may shape our sexual identities." Here are the contextual domains that are explored: Alternative and non-normative sexualities [5] that are usually hidden or taboo [12]. Exploring the culture of these Dark Rooms [11], the connection to personal identity [1], but also past and various familial traumas.[4]. Watch both as an invisible ghost [12], but also moments as an embodied character [1] to mimic being a part of this alternative culture [11]. Here is the Elemental Center of Gravity: 1st Center of Gravity of Earth Element / Environmental and Embodied Presence: Immerse yourself into the spatial architecture of these dark rooms. You're mostly a ghostly observer, but sometimes you do swtich into having an embodied role as a character within the narrative that's unfolding. But more to embody the form rather than to communicate or fully participate. More to evoke some embodied memories than to truly participate. The spatial transitions and overall spatial journey within this piece was one of the best jobs that I've ever seen. Feel like truely being taken on a spatial journey that I locomote through using my body and walking, but there's a cinematic quality to the spatial editing and rhythm of storytelling that's mirrored and amplified by embodied movements through space.2nd Center of Gravity of Water Element / Emotional Presence: Sense of awe, excitement, and wonderment. Listen to the oral history stories of these main protagonists, but in a way that's like walking through a spatial film, a waking dream, and a montage of memories. We see the stories of 3 different protagonists told sequentially.3rd Center of Gravity of Fire Element / Active Presence: Walking through a spatial architecture to tell a story. There's instances where you become a character who is play acting in the scene. No real narrative agency4th Center of Gravity of Air Element / Mental and Social Presence: Voice over narration is the primary mode in which the story is being told, but you're also embedded into these various spatial contexts and environments, and so there's also additional aspects of environmental storytelling happening. This experience allowed 3 people at a time to see it, and you see the other people as avatars who are also exploring these worlds. There was an AI-enabled offboarding pilot where you would start to debrief and talk about your experience, but it didn't necessarily have a clear stopping point as it would sort of endlessly ask questions. Archetypal Themes and Character Explored: exploration of human psychology through the prism of sexuality especially the "queer and non-normative sexualities." Also intends to "step into the heart of human desire and the shadows it casts" & "wish to open the doors to the darker spaces of our protagonists' sexuality." Embodied radical consent within the production of the process where participants had more control and agency over how their story was being told Artist Statement: "Dark Rooms was born out of a shared playfulness and curiosity. Laurits, coming from classic documentary, and Mads, from immersive storytelling, began a collaboration based on the idea of a virtual reality experience that would allow the audience to explore unknown territory through the prism of sexuality. Early on, Anne Sofie was connected to the project, and through her eyes and experience with queer and non-normative sexualities, the project grew into its current form. Dark Rooms is not only a reference to the unknown and the sexual — it is also a wish to open the doors to the darker spaces of our protagonists' sexuality. Under the maxim of “nothing about us, without us”, Dark Rooms was developed and designed through an intimate co-creation process with the protagonists, to help expose their journeys in a form that the audience would embody." https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JV7H0mn_BPU This is a listener-supported podcast through the Voices of VR Patreon.

LivAway Suites made a bold choice: give long-term guests more room and still protect the economics behind the hotel. The company builds rooms about 20% larger than typical economy extended-stay rooms, places the kitchen at the center of the space and adds features that matter when someone lives in a hotel for weeks at a time. Fast Wi-Fi, better sound control, package lockers, useful storage and stronger ventilation all play a role. I spoke with LivAway Suites CEO Mike Nielson with Dr. Producer Suzanne Bagnera about how LivAway makes that model work. Mike explains how the company controls construction costs, improves housekeeping efficiency and builds an independent brand around the way extended-stay guests actually live. LivAway now operates 14 hotels and plans many more across the country, but the most interesting part of the story comes from the math behind the room. Click through and watch my latest #NoVacancyNews video to hear how LivAway gives guests more space without giving up the margins that make the model work. Actabl gives you the power to profit.

A BBC Panorama investigation has put the spotlight on the Athena Learning Trust after parents, pupils and former teachers raised concerns about its behaviour policies. The programme features allegations including strict toilet rules, silent music lessons, extensive use of reflection rooms and claims that some neurodiverse pupils were disproportionately affected. Athena says its schools are built on high expectations, that behaviour policies are applied with professional judgement, and that calm, disruption-free classrooms help all pupils to learn. So, did Athena actually go too far? Were these policies a necessary response to poor behaviour, or did they become unnecessarily rigid and punitive? Where should schools draw the line between maintaining discipline and responding to individual pupils' needs? Join Tom Rogers and the panel as they debate one of the biggest education stories of the week.

We're on Patreon! Find us at https://www.patreon.com/AudioUnleashed This week, Dennis and Brent dig deep into a Reddit post about soundbars to gain some insight into how A.I. is going to make sense of audiophiles in the future. (That'll make sense in context, promise.) After that, they riff on some interesting new data about CD and LP sales, which prove K-pop and wall art are driving the whole audio biz. Then they turn their fleeting attention to recent developments in streaming — apparently, Spotify editorial playlists are in decline, but is Spotify still the only streamer that matters? Brent has some data of his own (and a $147 ASCAP payment!) to add to the conversation.
The next phase of workplace transformation starts beyond the meeting room.Most enterprises have deployed Microsoft Teams Rooms and the core meeting experience is working. But beyond the meeting room sits a much larger opportunity, lobbies, huddle spaces, event venues, open collaboration areas, and most organisations are managing those with a disconnected patchwork of point solutions that wasn't designed to scale. In this video, Marcus Law sits down with Vic Bhagat, Senior Director of Alliances at Q-SYS, to explore what a genuinely high-performance workplace requires, what changes when you connect every space type through a unified platform, and what Microsoft's decision to build Experience Center One on Q-SYS tells us about where enterprise AV is heading. If you're responsible for a Teams Rooms estate and thinking about what comes next, this is the conversation to start with.

This playlist is 91% vinyl friendly. Near perfect. Philips, The Tina Century Bluetooth Turntable room.. A £350-£400 retro look to blend in with your wood panelling room, it reminds me of a car grill from the 1960s. Built-in speakers with deep (how low can you go) bass and crystal-clear highs. Any track marked * has been given either a tiny or a slightly larger 41 Rooms tweak/edit/chop and the occasional tune might sound a bit dodgy, quality-wise. On top of that, the switch between different decades and production values never helps in the mix here. Lyric of Playlist 154 Tim Hardin’s lyric and song title. 00.00 (Intro) THE FLAMINGOS – Stars (Edit) – Unreleased demo – 1983. Episode #1 for info. 00.41 NEW ORDER – Dreams Never End (John Peel session: 16.2.81) – The Peel Sessions 12″ EP – Strange Fruit – 1987 Diary for Jan 16, ’81 says ‘Karl W round. NEW ORDER JOHN PEEL…‘ Those caps signal something special and the journey had begun at Heaven, London a week earlier. Two good mates called Karl were there, though I hadn’t realised the one at my house listening to the first broadcast of the session was a Carl. 03.45 THE TEARDROP EXPLODES – Second Head – Kilimanjaro, LP – Mercury – 1980 Listening to this album now it’s got a bit of a bubbly and bouncy feel. Judging by a set list suggested for the Manchester Poly night’ that followed ours/mine it doesn’t look like Second Head made into our night here. Packed with Kilimanjaro tracks though. 06.55 TOM PETTY and THE HEARTBREAKERS – I Need To Know – 7″ – Shelter – 1978 Still with a fair amount of ‘rock’ in my world at this point in time, for some reason I thought I’d had a 12″ of this but that would have been a bit daft. At just 2mins 22 plus, a fiery new wave feel that could have made it as an Elvis Costello tune. 09.17 FORMAL SPPEEDWEAR – Who Needs Spain Ball – Punch Card, LP – Melodic – 2026 “Who Needs Spain Ball?”. ‘On the surface, the single functions as a highly accessible, synth-forward New Wave track featuring the record's biggest, most infectious pop chorus. However, the title and the song’s inner mechanics are intentionally surreal, designed to “pull the rug” out from under the listener‘. – Apologies, I forgot the source. An early Talking Heads vibe going on? They’re pulling the rug even more with their merch – with the band’s name the only lettering… album t-shirts! 12.28 BIG JOANIE – It’s You – Sistahs, LP – The Daydream Library Series – 2018 So post punk! 14.48 EGOSLAVIA – Twist Face – Self-titled, (mini) LP – 9 1/2 x 16″ Records – 1982 Not that many will have debated it but I’ve always pronounced this band as ‘Egoslayvia’ and it’s only just dawned on me it was likely ‘Egoslahvia’. Better late… and a band I was introduced to by a US guy who dropped in on John Peel’s radio show somewhere in the ’80s. Very unusual for Peely to have anyone else in the studio with him but his guest was picking tracks from three or so US bands that Peely had never heard of, something that irritated the latter, slightly. 20.08 BIFFER BONKER – 4 Prong, Fucked Up, 2 Potato Thing – Biffer Bonker Is…Unabashed, download album only – ? – 2026 Anyone with a decades long history of Bedford, UK’s musical landscape stretching back to punk bands of the mid to late 70s will have knowledge of Biffer in a former life or three fronting a wealth of different bands but his present world view is available here, with something from the man for me currently getting waylaid by various postal services. ‘No god is required… ‘ Ain’t that the truth and if there isn’t a lyric sheet involved somewhere I might be requesting one :), as he’ll be back here at some point. He’s also the man who introduced me to Click Click via an early demo tape of theirs somewhere around 1984. 23.17 BROKEN SPINDLES – To Die, For Death – Fulfilled / Complete, LP – Saddle Creek – 2004 Content with having spun Induction on an earlier show, and as it turns out, rightly guessing on the album’s diversity I hadn’t been rushing to grab the physical vinyl… but here we are! One Joel Peterson, from Omaha, Nebraska. 25.35 TARWATER – 20 Miles Up – Silur, LP – Kitty-Yo – 1986 From the US to Germany and there’s a far wider breadth to this duos ‘catalogue’ than the two tracks now spun on 41 Rooms would suggest. 29.35 RIPPLE – I Don’t Know What It Is But It Sure Is Funky – 7″ – GRC – 1973 I don’t know about I Don’t Know… but with no UK release it’s unlikely our mainstream radio of the time spun this, though maybe a DJ or two down the Pilgrims or in the Anglers (Inn) Lair across the road could have. I have strong memories of hearing Willie Henderson’s Dance Master at the latter. 32.53 MARY KENT – Lost Generation – 7″ – CBS – 1969 It’s a slower, darker take than the version the song’s writer, Jim(my) Webb put out himself a year later and though Mary’s intro needed red carding for the show her version has some gravitas and feels ‘worthier’ now than it may have done to the UK’s record buyers back in 1969… what with the Vietnam war being… yep, somewhere else. The intro brings to my mind Common Sense’s Resurrection ’95. 36.57 LADY BLACKBIRD vs CROOKED MAN – Whatever His Name (Pt 1) * – Crooked Spirituals Remixes, 12″ – Foundation – 2025 She’s rightly got her soul audience but I much prefer her vocals set against some electronic goings on, as with the already 41 Rooms’ spun Athletes Of God and some remixing bods, including here, Crooked Man. They seem to give her vocals more of an edge for me. 42.18 ROBERTO RODRIGUEZ (feat. MAX C) – About This Love (Crazy P Remix) (Dub) * – 12″ – Compost Black Label – 2009 The vocals are incidental but the track just keeps building, dropping, shifting. A head-nod-a-thon of slight unease. 45.42 CLICK CLICK – Stay Out Of The Water – 12″ b-side – Rorschach Testing – 1985 Great times in the summer and autumn of ’85. Our RT label is off and running with a party at Winkles (Bedford), a P(roduction) and D(istribution) deal with Rough Trade, 500 copies of the initial yellow and blue sleeved 12″ pressing head straight to the US off the back of A-side (Sweet Stuff) getting CC Single Of The Week in Sounds and with spins on John Peel’s radio show there are one-off gigs in London, Brighton and Northampton and rehearsals are sounding great. Gig poster for 28.11.84. Part of a Rorschach Testing ad, The Catalogue #29, Aug ’85. 49.24 SIMPLE MINDS – Premonition (John Peel session: 7.1.80) – Silver Box, 5CD – Virgin – 2004 Having already seen them on the OGWT (live from Hurrah’s New York) and live at the Marquee the previous month I must have heard this session but for whatever reason I definitely didn’t record it. A ropey photo below of mine from London’s Hammersmith Palais, 26.8.80. 54.28 THE FALL – Dktr. Faustus * – Bend Sinister, LP – Beggars Banquet – 1986 It’s about time Mark E Smith (RIP) and his gang made it back here… so they have. 00.01.00 ECHO and THE BUNNYMEN – I Bagsy Yours (John Peel session: 22.8.79) – The Peel Sessions 12″ EP – 1988 This show’s third Peel session track of the era and the song renamed Monkeys in time to nestle next to the track Crocodiles months later on their debut album. I’m with ‘Bagsy’, though. Even us southerners used the term back then, though it might be best to not remember how it was being used here. 01.02.47 THE MOVE – I Can Hear The Grass Grow – 7″ – Deram – 1967 ‘An early, proto-psychedelic freakbeat masterpiece‘ in some modern day circles but a fab bit of wild pop back then. As the years rolled on though, the ‘weedier’ (sadly) Roy Wood’s guitar interjections have sounded. 01.05.52 PETULA CLARK – The Other Man’s Grass (Is Always Greener) – 7″ – Pye – 1967 Husband and wife writers, Tony Hatch and Jackie Trent (or in this particular case, Jackie Trent and Tony Hatch :)), with their key and tempo changing swirler giving ‘Our Pet’ her last Top 20 hit. So idiosyncratic it never got covered by anyone else or maybe offered as an exclusive to Petula? Either way, I bet Trent (no mean singer herself) forwarded a guide vocal version and I’d have been interested in hearing that. And it’s taken me a week to realise I’ve placed two songs next to each with ‘Grass’ in the title. Very unintentional but spooky and true. 01.08.49 BROOKE COMBE – Tears Won’t Lie * – 7″ – Fontana – 2026 I reckon Northern soul’s younger followers will dance and some older purists will very likely pick at the production but Combe and co-writer, James Skelly have nailed it, and if this song had been recorded in the mid 1960s – and maybe on the label this 7″ now pays homage to (with say Kiki Dee?) – there’d be an even bigger price tag on it than this barely out of the 2026 pressing plant £18 7′ already commands. Also, all involved in the Combe camp will have been as meticulous on the look for the dancers in the video as was MT Jones for his I Don’t Understand. Paying homage can be tough stuff. 01.11.19 TERRY CALLIER – Ordinary Joe – 7″ – Cadet – 1972 Terry and producer, Charles Stepney with a ‘skipping along the road’ feel. An even more expensive buy than the above… and I have neither. 01.15.17 CHAIRMEN OF THE BOARD – Give Me Just A Little More Time – 7″ – Invictus – 1970 INV 501. Did Invictus kick off their UK releases with a homage to Tamla Motown’s UK singles catalogue. Five years earlier the latter had also started with (TMG) 501, via The Supremes’ Stop In The Name Of Love. 01.17.57 JACKIE WILSON – I Get The Sweetest Feeling – 7″ – Brunswick – 1968 1968 for Jackie but the mid ’70s for me. Putnoe, Bedford… sunshine… Gill H… 01.20.49 THE CONTROLLERS – Somebody’s Gotta Win, Somebody’s Gotta Loose (7″ version) – 7″ – Juana – 1977 I didn’t knowingly hear this til maybe twenty years ago. With the amount of music that bypasses us, is it possible I’ve never heard the greatest song I could ever hear? 01.24.42 UMBRA MOON – Don’t Let Me Down – Download only – 2024 This Australian girl is seemingly taking longer to break out than I would have imagined but though stylistically aside of my normal listening, this is a gem. 01.28.02 SHAWN PHILLIPS – Solitude – 7″ b-side – Columbia – 1965 With my copy bought for this side alone, there are few artists I’ve come across who have been both super jaunty and deeper than deep in the songwriting department and 41 Rooms can be with Shawn in both moods. 01.30.48 JOHN and BEVERLEY MARTYN – Primrose Hill – 7″ – Warner Brothers – 1970 In 1970 approximately 1% of the American population had a passport, so aside thinking (at best) Primrose Hill maybe had some Civil War battle reference for them they were going to struggle to warm to this London landmark being referenced, even though somebody at Warners US – as opposed to their UK counterpoints – thought this Carole King-like tune had legs as a single. Sadly, they were wrong, with the promo 7″ likely more common than the stock copy. 01.33.40 TIM HARDIN – You Upset The Grace Of Living When You Lie – 7″ promo only – Verve Forecast – 1967 Yep, lyric and title of show 154 goes to… though at 1min 45 it’s nearly over by the time he’s got through singing the line. A ragged, slightly altered take of the song was part of Hardin’s performance at Woodstock but his set only got to make it to an official release of the festival in 2019. 01.35.22 JOSE FELICIANO – Dirty Work – For My Love… Mother Music, LP – RCA – 1974 It’s likely I’d be outnumbered with my thinking here but Jose’s passion makes Steely Dan’s own recorded version, sung by their then main vocalist, David Palmer, sound lack lustre. 01.38.08 VANGELIS – He-O – Earth, LP – Vertigo – 1973 Back in Vangelis’ big years I only got around to wanting his 1976 single, Pulstar but then hearing the Beatfanatics Balearic Boogie Remix of Let It Happen in 2007 led me backwards to this album and it’s the vocals (of one Robert Fitoussi) on both tracks that seem to make the difference for me. 01.42.05 STEVIE WONDER – Pastime Paradise * – Songs In The Key Of Life, 2LP – Tamla Motown – 1976 I bought the album at the time but my youthful ignorance didn’t fully take in the scale of Stevie’s accomplishment and looking now at the full tracklisting there were only six tracks I regularly played, with Pastime Paradise being one of them. The American buyers who took Songs… to No 1 in the Billboard album charts will have delved deeper. 01.45.21 KOICHI OZAKI – Petal Of The Cherry Blossom * – Novo Tempo / Koichi Ozaki: Novo Tempo Meets Eurasian Suite Vol. 2, 12″ – Eurasian Suite – 2004 If I could dip into the whole of the soul/(acid)jazz/beats etc etc world of the Japanese from the ’90s onwards there’d be a basket full of great tunes I’ve yet to hear. So little time… 01.51.22 KEITH JARRETT (TRIO) – Dancing – Changeless, LP – ECM Records – 1989 ‘Original material which is deeply subversive (though also respectfully aware) of the whole tradition of jazz as a system of improvisation on ‘the changes’… On Changeless, there are no chord progressions at all; the trio improvises each section in a single key, somewhat in the manner of an Indian raga‘. – The Penguin Guide to Jazz. ‘These pieces – not written, rehearsed, thought out, sketched, or arranged – ‘came up’ in the middle of four distinctly different concerts. Process is swifter and more accurate than thought.‘ – Keith Jarrett’s album liner notes (edited). Show 155 arrives Sept 6.

It's time for another Listener Mail episode, and this week the High on Home Grown community has sent in another brilliant mix of growing questions, cannabis myths, and a few completely random discussions that only Listener Mail can deliver! We begin by helping a listener who's planning a brand-new grow room after moving house. We discuss the pros and cons of building a secure enclosure inside a garage, how to make it as smell-proof as possible, and the key things to consider when growing safely with young children around. We also dive into the best methods for long-term cannabis storage, including whether vacuum sealing is a good option and how to preserve your harvest for months, or even years. The panel also tackles a common harvest question: can you dry your cannabis in the same tent you grew it in by simply turning off the lights? We discuss the ideal drying conditions, what to watch out for, and how to get the best possible cure. We also bust an old cannabis myth by asking whether Miracle-Gro really "sucks the THC" out of your plants, separating internet folklore from reality. Of course, it wouldn't be Listener Mail without a few lighter moments. We compare cannabutter vs cannabis oil for making edibles, answer a couple of wonderfully ridiculous philosophical questions, and even try to make sense of one of Dave's mysterious text messages. As always, it's another relaxed episode packed with practical growing advice, cannabis knowledge, community questions, and plenty of laughs along the way.
Picture 100% occupancy on your busiest weekend of the year — then picture running out of towels. Rooms sit unsellable, guests grow furious, and the hotel writes refunds and credits just to get through the night. Bart Begley built Integrity Laundry Services so no hotel has to live through that scenario, and I went to Destin, Florida to see how. Under Bart's model, hotels don't own a single towel or sheet anymore — Integrity owns every piece of linen outright and delivers a fresh set the night before a hotel even needs it. His proprietary system pulls reservation data straight from a property's own systems to know exactly what a property needs and when. This tour covers: The Mardi Gras scramble that leaves guests without a room and hotels writing refunds and credits Why hotels no longer own their linens at all under this model, and what that eliminates from their budget How a proprietary system reads a hotel's reservations and restocks linen before anyone calls The water and utility numbers behind linen that arrives spotless and hospital-clean What happened across an entire holiday weekend at 100% occupancy — and how not one room came up short Want the weekly roundup of news, videos, and what you might've missed from #NoVacancyNews?

Film writer Devan Suber joins us for two oblique character studies about internet-warped minds and the technology they—we?—use to mediate reality. Antonio Campos' 2008 experimental drama AFTERSCHOOL and Pascal Plante's 2023 psychological thriller RED ROOMS may be from opposite ends of the internet era, but both are tapped into the urges that keep their deeply troubled protagonists online... even if we aren't so sure what those are.You can find more from Devan at https://letterboxd.com/cvance1/Unwatchables is hosted by Marc Dottavio and Seth Troyer, produced by Tony Scarpitti, featuring artwork by Micah Kraus.

Rooms of Experience, Act 3 By Steffany Sommers Starring Patty McCormack as Ada Wells and Dan Lauria as DA Harvey Davis The trial begins. Detective Curtis takes the stand. Gina tells the jury about the woman who spent sixty-five years caring for her son. Alexis puts Ada on the stand. Ada does not ask for forgiveness. She asks them to understand. Dana answers with the law. Alexis answers with lived experience. An expert insists Teddy could have adapted to a new home. Ada insists they never knew her son. Then the case goes to the jury. But Dana’s real judgment comes somewhere else. The blue envelopes. The hospital. The daughter she left behind. Dana finally tells Ada the truth. Her baby was born with Down syndrome. Dana walked out of the hospital. She never went back. And she prosecuted Ada because she needed to believe that leaving her own child had been the right choice. Ada does not condemn her. She reminds Dana that not every choice is permanent. Then she asks the question Dana has avoided for seven years. What is her daughter’s name? Maddie. Before the jury can deliver its verdict, Ada dies quietly in her garden. In the hollowed-out place where Teddy used to lie. The case is dismissed. But the question remains. At Ada’s funeral, Alexis gives Dana one final letter. Dana opens it. She finds Christopher. She finds Maddie. And for the first time since that day at the hospital, Dana moves toward her daughter instead of away. By the end of Act Three, the law never delivers a verdict. Dana makes a different choice. Starring Academy Award nominee Patty McCormack (The Bad Seed) as Ada Wells with Dan Lauria (The Wonder Years) as DA Harvey Davis Craig Parker (The Lord of the Rings) as Detective Curtis Nicholas Gonzalez (The Good Doctor) as Carter Nora Zehetner (Heroes, Everwood) as Rebecca Alyshia Ochse as Dana Jeffries Candice Coke as Alexis Martinez Eileen Grubba as Gina Gordon Alain Uy as Ethan and narrated by Sarah Elmaleh Table Read is executive produced by Jack Levy, Mark Knell, and Shaan Sharma.

In this raw and eye-opening episode of the PFC Podcast, Dennis sits down with Jason, a general surgeon who completed nine combat deployments (seven in special operations) and has since operated in caves, dirt-floored schoolhouses, living rooms, and active conflict zones across multiple countries with nothing but a small team and minimal kit.Jason breaks down the hard truths of “guerrilla surgery” — what actually happens when you strip away the three-truck, 21-person forward surgical team and force a four-person element to provide meaningful surgical care far forward in denied or unconventional environments. He explains why the biggest barrier to austere surgery is often the surgeon's own mindset, how he went from carrying 60 instruments down to the 10 he actually uses, and the critical (and often misunderstood) difference between damage control surgery and definitive field care when follow-on care is not guaranteed.Listeners will hear real-world lessons on space requirements, sterility compromises, anesthesia options with almost nothing, and the courage required to operate when the alternative is certain death for the patient.Key Takeaways:Reduced inventory forces reduced capability — fighting this reality gets people killedThe surgeon is frequently the biggest obstacle to effective austere operationsHow to ruthlessly pare down to the 10 instruments you will actually useWhy damage control surgery can be the wrong choice when you may never see the patient againThe 10 × 8 × 7 foot rule for creating a functional austere operating spaceHow to make sterility decisions when someone is bleeding to death in front of youAnesthesia progression from local blocks to ketamine, spinal, and general in denied environmentsThe mindset shift required to move from “we can do everything” to “what can we actually do here that adds value?”Whether you're a military surgeon, forward surgical team member, special operations medic, or anyone serious about prolonged field care and austere medicine, this episode will fundamentally change how you think about surgical capability in resource-poor, high-threat environments.Connect with Jason's work through the Four Winds Professional Guild at www.4wguild.org.Chapters00:00 – Podcast Introduction & Guest Welcome00:55 – Jason's Background: 9 Combat Deployments (7 in Special Operations) & Global Missions02:22 – The Ghost Team Experiment: Why “We Can Do Everything with Less” Is Dangerous04:23 – Why Surgeons Themselves Often Block Effective Austere Operations05:43 – Military Training vs. The Harsh Realities of Austere & Unconventional Warfare08:04 – Paring Down from 60 Instruments to the 10 You Actually Use09:03 – The Hard Realities of War Zones: Doing No Harm When the System Doesn't Exist11:10 – Small Team Dynamics: You Are the Pre-Op, OR, and PACU13:35 – Damage Control Surgery vs. Definitive Field Care in Denied Environments16:42 – What Actually Drives Your Kit: Terrain, Evacuation Times, Aftercare & Patient Population21:08 – Longer Evacuation Times Change Everything About Your Surgical Approach22:17 – The Critical Decision: Quick & Dirty vs. All-In Definitive Care27:02 – The 10 × 8 × 7 Foot Rule: Minimum Space Requirements for Austere Surgery29:28 – Sterility in Austere Environments: Bare Minimum Standards That Actually Matter32:30 – When Non-Sterile Technique Is the Only Way to Keep Someone Alive35:43 – Anesthesia Options When You Have Almost Nothing (Local → Ketamine → Spinal → General)39:01 – Advice to New Austere Surgeons: Courage, Basic Principles & Trial & ErrorConsider supporting us: patreon.com/ProlongedFieldCareCollective or www.lobocoffeeco.com/product-page/prolonged-field-care

We're on Patreon! Find us at https://www.patreon.com/AudioUnleashed This week, Dennis and Brent kick things off with a response to a Patron who had some defensive words for OJAS, aka Devon Turnbull. Then they add their voices to the biggest discussion in audio right now: the Axiss Audio lawsuit against The Greek Audio Geek, Suncoast Audio, and Clarisys Audio for defamation and conspiracy. And they tackle the confounding question of whether or not the judgment of some dude sitting around in his underwear will pass muster in a court of law. With that out of the way, they invite Pro Audio Technology and Theory Audio Design owner and CEO Paul Hales to rant about the cult of high-end audio and explain how he engineered his escape. They conclude by turning their attention to all the ways in which the A.I. bubble is about to make everything more expensive—except, of course, for Class-AB amps. And (maybe!) cable lifters.
Rooms of Experience, Act 2 By Steffany Sommers Starring Patty McCormack as Ada Wells and Dan Lauria as DA Harvey Davis Dana tries to outrun the case. Literally. But Ada Wells keeps following her home. At Teddy’s funeral, Ada collapses. Alexis asks for mercy. Dana refuses. Harvey warns her not to go soft. The medical examiner confirms it was homicide. Then reveals Ada could have hidden it. No visible trauma. No obvious cause of death. No reason to test for helium. But Ada left everything in plain sight. Detective Curtis admits she never tried to escape responsibility. Gina cares for Ada as her health begins to fail. Ethan offers Dana a life built on trust. And the blue envelopes hidden inside her desk keep demanding the truth. Then, at Rebecca’s birthday party, Dana is handed a baby. A little girl named Molly reaches for her. A child with Down syndrome. Molly touches Dana’s face. And something buried begins to surface. The prosecutor who insists there is always a choice can no longer avoid the choice she made. By the end of Act Two, Ada Wells is not the only mother being judged.

Rooms of Experience, Act 1 By Steffany Sommers Starring Patty McCormack as Ada Wells and Dan Lauria as DA Harvey Davis The call comes in at night. An elderly woman. A dead son. A tank of helium left in plain sight. Ada Wells doesn’t deny it. She wanted his last day to be peaceful. Enter Dana Jeffries, razor-sharp, undefeated, and hungry to prove herself. Her boss, Harvey Davis, assigns the case for one reason: optics. Defense attorney Alexis Martinez pushes back hard. Detective Curtis starts questioning his own conclusions. Gina Gordon protects Ada like family. Carter becomes another pressure point inside the machine. Rebecca is caught in the ripple effect. Then Alexis shows Dana the home movies. The real story. The years no one saw. The cost no one counted. By the end of Act One, Dana walks out of Ada’s house shaken. No longer sure the law and justice are the same thing.

Most haunted house stories are about people trying to escape whatever is lurking inside. This one is different.After renting a house that had sat empty for years, a family began noticing small, unexplained things. Rooms would suddenly fill with the scent of lilacs. Their cats acted as though someone invisible was stopping to pet them. Keys and other everyday items occasionally disappeared, only to turn up again in unexpected places. Eventually they learned the previous owner—a woman known for living alone with her cats—had died peacefully in the home.Over time, the family stopped thinking of the activity as something to fear. Instead, they came to believe they were simply sharing the house with the woman who had loved it long before they arrived. They even discovered there seemed to be one simple rule: don't talk about her too much... because whenever they did, she had a funny way of reminding them she was still there.#HauntedHouse #FriendlyGhost #LilacLady #GhostStories #RealGhostStories #Paranormal #AfterDeathCommunication #HauntedHome #GhostCats #GhostCatLady #Supernatural #Spirits #Unexplained #ParanormalPodcast #HauntedRentalLove real ghost stories?

If you ever wondered what happens when billionaires decide regular air conditioning just isn't dramatic enough anymore... welcome to today's episode.The gang starts by diving into the latest luxury trend making its way out of Paris: inflatable, air-conditioned tracksuits. Because apparently owning a mansion, a yacht, and an indoor snow room isn't enough anymore. Why sweat like the rest of us when you can look like the Michelin Man while staying frosty? The crew debates whether these ridiculous designer suits are actually genius or just another way for rich people to spend money on problems the rest of us solve with a box fan.Then things take a sharp turn into one of the most hilariously frustrating games we've played in a while: Real or Fake Fireworks. Contestants try to figure out whether names like "Laser Kitties," "Pizza Pocalypse," "Neighbor Hater," "Sparkle Fart," and "Psycho Peacock" are actual fireworks you can buy... or something Rafe made up after five cups of coffee.Spoiler alert: everyone quickly learns that the real fireworks manufacturers are somehow weirder than we are.Between terrible guesses, lifelines that occasionally help (and occasionally don't), Boston accents that completely fall apart, nonstop roasting of contestants, and the crew laughing at names that absolutely should not exist, today's daily comedy podcast proves once again that reality is almost always funnier than fiction.If you've ever wandered through a fireworks tent thinking, "There's no way that's a real product," this episode is for you. You'll also discover why putting air conditioning inside your clothes may be the future... even if it makes you look like Violet Beauregarde after the blueberry incident.Whether you're here for weird news, pop culture commentary, bizarre luxury trends, hilarious games, or just need a reason to laugh through another hot summer day, we've got you covered.Thanks for hanging out with The Rizzuto Show—where every conversation somehow spirals into complete nonsense, and honestly, we wouldn't have it any other way.If you laughed, share the episode with someone who still has leftover fireworks hidden in their garage.Follow The Rizzuto Show → https://linktr.ee/rizzshow for more from your favorite daily comedy podcast.Connect with The Rizzuto Show Comedy Podcast online → https://1057thepoint.com/RizzShow.Hear The Rizz Show daily on the radio at 105.7 The Point | Hubbard Radio in St. Louis, MO.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.
