Chegamos no CineYur 40 e decidimos transformar dois diretores chamados Quentin num campeonato de filmografia.Quentin Tarantino vs Quentin Dupieux.O episódio inteiro funciona assim.Criamos 3 rounds.No primeiro, os filmes se enfrentam por ordem cronológica. Primeiro filme contra primeiro filme, segundo contra segundo e por aí vai. Então vira coisas como Reservoir Dogs vs Steak, Pulp Fiction vs Rubber, Jackie Brown vs Wrong.No segundo round, os filmes são comparados pela função dentro da carreira de cada diretor. O filme que consolidou a identidade do autor. O mais agressivo visualmente. O mais obcecado por identidade. O mais autoconsciente. O mais claustrofóbico.E em algum momento a gente percebeu que estava discutindo The Hateful Eight vs Yannick como se isso fosse completamente normal.No terceiro round a conversa vira quase uma discussão sobre o que realmente importa no cinema.Melhor filme absoluto. Melhor roteiro. Originalidade. Personagens. Técnica. Impacto. Reassistibilidade.Cada categoria vale ponto. Vitória vale um. Empate vale meio.Só que depois de um tempo o placar começa a importar menos que a diferença entre os dois diretores.O Tarantino parece alguém tentando transformar cinema em mito moderno.O Dupieux parece alguém tentando descobrir até onde ainda dá pra brincar com um filme.E talvez o episódio tenha acabado ficando exatamente sobre isso.

Headline: The Age of Turbulence and the Race Against Nature Guest: Professor Peter Frankopan Book Title: The Earth Transformed: An Untold History From 1870 to 1920, the race for monetized resources like rubber and nitrates led to massive ecosystem degradation. Frankopan describes how rubber trees were transplanted from the Amazon to the Malay Peninsula, fundamentally altering local landscapes to meet global demand. New technologies like the telegraph and refrigerated shipping allowed goods to move cheaper and faster, often making it more affordable to ship grain from the US to London than from Ireland. While Western history focuses on transatlantic migration, Frankopan notes that migration within the Indo-Pacific region was even more extensive, profoundly shaping today's geopolitics. The 1883 eruption of Krakatoa captured the global imagination, but Frankopan reminds listeners that scientists like Eunice Footewere already warning about the "greenhouse effect" and the burning of carbon sources by the 1850s. He emphasizes that our current climate crisis is the culmination of a 200-year cycle of industrial acceleration and ecological aggravation. (7)1900 IDAHO

Carl and Mike get into some NFL headlines as they react to Baker Mayfield saying he dealt with a lot of injuries last season which he believes contributed to the Bucs offense not being as good as some may have expected. They they get into some Falcons talk as they share thoughts on the QB competition and agree that Michael Penix Jr. should win the starting role however believe there still needs to be clarification from the Falcons once camp begins about his status in regards to being a full participant.
On this day, 12 July 1994, around 4,000 workers at Bridgestone-Firestone tyres in Decatur, Illinois, Akron, Ohio, Noblesville, Indiana, Des Moines, Iowa and Oklahoma City walked out on strike. Workers were protesting against the introduction of 12-hour shifts, pay and healthcare cuts, cuts to unemployment and injury benefits and a two-tier workforce. The workers, members of the United Rubber Workers union, joined 1,600 URW members who had already walked out at Dunlop in Alabama. To fight back, Bridgestone-Firestone hired 2,300 permanent scabs to replace the strikers. After 10 months, the strike was defeated, and many of the strikers were not rehired.More information, sources and map: https://stories.workingclasshistory.com/article/8406/bridgestone-firestone-strikeOur work is only possible because of support from you, our listeners on patreon.

Two-time World Series champion David Ross joins Buster Olney to discuss a story he had never previously heard about the 2016 Chicago Cubs on his Lovable Reunion podcast, if he ever has to pay for dinner in Chicago, the biggest threat the Dodgers' threepeat quest, why it's actually a good thing Vladimir Guerrero Jr. is skipping the All-Star Game, Zack Wheeler's All-Star snub and Dalton Rushing learning to be a “servant to the pitcher.” Plus, did David Ross make Jon Lester more money, or the other way around? Then, Hembo stops by to talk about the Dodgers' huge run differential, why the stolen bases boom has wilted, the Guardians' rubber-armed pitching staff, the Marlins fortunes being jolted by Joe Mack, and Bryce Harper back to being Bryce Harper.

Sometimes the biggest business success stories begin with people who simply know their craft better than anyone else. For Wayne Da Costa and Gideon Monyelekgau, that journey started on the factory floor of Tensile Rubber Hoses in Rosslyn, Gauteng. Long before they became business partners, they spent years learning every aspect of the company. Wayne worked his way up to managing the operation, while Gideon's journey began in the garden before moving into production, studying further and eventually leading product development and quality. Then came an opportunity few employees ever receive. When the previous owner decided to sell the business in 2014, Wayne and Gideon made a life-changing decision. They invested their pension savings and became equal owners of the company they had helped build.
Part 3 with Geordie Lillis from Creators of Awesome, and this one goes off. Geordie kicks off with a proper true yarn. At 14, riding his motorbike on the family farm, he got struck by lightning. The bolt hit the power line above him and arced through the ground into his bike. Rubber wheels, rubber gloves, rubber boots. That's the only reason he's here to tell it. Mum watched him vanish in a white flash. He's got the GoPro footage too. The lightning gave him a heart arrhythmia that stuck around until he broke his neck at 21 and the shock reset his heart. Turns out breaking your neck's not all bad news. Geordie walks through the recovery. 21 years old, working on movies at Village Roadshow, one bad skim board fall on the beach, hairline fracture through C1, and months lying in bed counting flies. Then a university lecturer offered him a job teaching filmmaking around Queensland to little indigenous communities. The Pomperaw yarn about handing shoelaces to barefoot kids who turned them into fishing nets by lunch is a ripper. Plus a full breakdown of how a film set actually works. Cinematographer, focus puller, second AC, video utility. And Geordie's specific job on Thor: Ragnarok running hundreds of metres of cable so Chris Hemsworth could see the Hulk in his eyeline.

They delve into the implications of this cancellation, reflecting on the legacy of the original series and its impact on the genre as a whole. The conversation then transitions seamlessly into a deep dive into the unique cinematic world of Quentin Dupieux, the talented writer and director known for his unconventional storytelling. They explore his 2010 masterpiece Rubber, a film that has garnered a cult following due to its absurd premise of a sentient tire that goes on a murderous rampage. The hosts analyze Dupieux's distinctive style, characterized by surreal humor and a penchant for blending the bizarre with the mundane, and discuss how this approach is evident in some of his other notable works, such as Wrong and Deerskin. Next, the discussion takes an unexpected turn as they briefly touch upon the iconic silent movie star Harrison Ford, reflecting on his illustrious career and the fascinating evolution of his roles from the early days of cinema to his current status as a Hollywood legend. The hosts share anecdotes and insights about Ford's contributions to film, highlighting his versatility as an actor and his ability to captivate audiences across generations. Following this, Cody takes the opportunity to inform Joe about Matt Dinniman, the creative mind behind the popular novel Dungeon Crawler Carl. He elaborates on Dinniman's journey as a writer and the recent announcement regarding the adaptation of the book into a TV series, discussing the potential this adaptation holds for both fans of the book and newcomers to the story. They speculate on casting choices, production details, and how the essence of the original narrative might be captured on screen. As the episode progresses, some exciting news surfaces about Jordan Peele's next film project. The hosts share their thoughts on Peele's previous works, such as Get Out and Us, and express their anticipation for what he will bring to the table next. They discuss the themes that Peele often explores in his films and how they resonate with contemporary audiences. To wrap up the episode, the guys shift gears to talk about Subterranean Press, a publisher renowned for its dedication to high-quality limited editions of speculative fiction. They discuss Subterranean Press's recent partnership with Conversation Tree Press, examining the potential benefits of this collaboration for both publishers and the authors involved. The conversation highlights the importance of independent publishing in promoting diverse voices and unique stories in the literary world. Overall, the episode is a rich tapestry of discussions that not only entertain but also provide listeners with valuable insights into the ever-evolving landscape of film and literature.Official Website: https://www.comesnaturallypodcast.comOfficial Merchandise: https://shop.spreadshirt.com/comes-naturally-podcast/iTunes: http://tinyurl.com/kqkgackFacebook: http://tinyurl.com/myovgm8Tumblr: http://tinyurl.com/m7a6mg9Twitter: @ComesNaturalPodYouTube: http://tiny.cc/5snxpy

'Belgisch' Rubber 2 by Geschiedenis Van
This week, we dive into a political news cycle so chaotic it feels like somebody accidentally gave the group chat control of the government.First up, reports of Donald Trump allegedly giving Benjamin Netanyahu an earful have everyone asking what exactly was said behind closed doors. Was it diplomacy? Was it frustration? Was it the world's most intense phone call? We break down the latest developments and what they could mean moving forward.Then we look at the controversy surrounding anti-ICE protesters who occupied a church and reportedly avoided prosecution, sparking a heated debate over protest, politics, and equal application of the law. The story became even more bizarre with high-profile names being dragged into the conversation and the media frenzy that followed.Meanwhile, California's political circus is already gearing up for the next act. We discuss the increasingly crowded gubernatorial race, the personalities trying to become the state's next leader, and whether voters are looking for change or more of the same.And in Los Angeles, the mayoral race continues to provide enough drama, finger-pointing, and campaign promises to fill an entire reality television season. We examine the candidates, the issues, and why every election somehow ends up feeling like a season finale.From international politics to local power struggles, this episode is packed with headlines, hot takes, and enough political theater to keep Hollywood jealous.Hit subscribe, grab your popcorn, and join us as we try to make sense of a week that clearly wasn't interested in making sense.

It's just four words in a catchy Billy Joel rhyme, but behind it lies one of the darkest and most devastating chapters in global history. This week on History Ignited, we are pulling up a chair at the family table to unpack the brutal reality behind the lyric: "Belgians in the Congo."Join us as we trace how King Leopold II turned a massive stretch of Central Africa into his own personal, corporate fiefdom under the guise of humanitarian aid. We break down the horrific human cost of the global rubber boom, the terror of the Force Publique, and how a single monarch's greed left deep, generational scars on a nation.How did a tragedy of this scale happen? How did Leopold cover it up? And how does a family process this kind of history together around the dinner table? Grab a seat, hit play, and let's ignite the history behind the music.What We Cover in This Episode:The Humanitarian Illusion: How King Leopold II tricked the world into letting him privately own the Congo Free State.The Price of Rubber: The brutal system of forced labor, quotas, and the atrocities committed against the Congolese people.The First Modern Human Rights Movement: How early whistleblowers and journalists exposed the truth to the world, forcing the Belgian government to step in.Family Discussion: Our raw, unscripted takeaways on how history remembers—or forgets—the cost of colonial exploitation.Send us Fan MailAbout History Ignited: History Ignited is the award-winning kids and family history podcast inspired by Billy Joel's We Didn't Start the Fire. Each short episode explores the real stories behind the people, events, inventions, and cultural moments that shaped the world from the 1950s through the 1980s.

De eerste in een reeksje van vier afleveringen over `'Belgisch' Rubber. Oftewel de kolonisatie van Kongo door Leopold II. Vandaag hebben we het in de eerste plaats over rubber zelf en de plannen van een zekere Leopold II.
When a custom rubber stamp manufacturer last week made a plea for people to take his factory's scraps, the responses started bouncing in.Nic Magnuson, who runs Magnuson Custom Stamps and helps lead operations at Unity Stamp Company in New London, Minnesota, said his companies throw out more than 200 pounds of clean natural rubber scraps each week. He reached out to mulch recyclers, playground surfacing specialists and more about taking the scraps, but no one wanted it. So, he took to Reddit, offering to ship out the rubber scraps to anyone who wanted it, just asking them to cover roughly $1 per pound in shipping costs.Magnuson said the Reddit post has so far racked up around 6.6 million views and that he's received hundreds of emails and DMs.“I've been working through them one by one and I'm still not caught up. The variety of intended uses has been the best part,” he said in an email.#manufacturing, #recycling, #sustainability, #industrialnews, #smallbusiness, #factorylife, #circular economy, #manufacturingnews, #innovation, #wastereduction, #recyclingideas, #greenmanufacturing, #reddit, #industrialrecycling, #sustainablemanufacturing
"There are so many extraordinary moments in Claude Lanzmann's nine hour documentary, Shoah but it's the interviews with the railway workers and the train drivers that helped facilitate the horrors of the holocaust (some of them still working those same lines when the movie was made in the 70's and 80's) and those with the farmers and local people who bore witness to the trains that have the most impact. The sheer matter-of-factness of their recounting; the lack of compassion, the smiles and shoulder shrugging. The banality of genocide. "After I'd watched Shoah, I felt as though something inside of me had been broken. From childhood I had grown up with the idea of this as the worst of human crimes, the word holocaust, alone, meant to pause for breath. Now here was the shock of seeing people involved with and witness to it writing it off as just another thing that happened in the course of a day of work. It was a shock, though, that came accompanied by an uncomfortable realisation that of course that's how it was: for evil to be committed on such a huge scale it couldn't have been any other way."The ‘Final Solution' was a railway operation run to a timetable. It was: mechanics, logistics, coke and steam. Wagoning, shunting, shovelling and coaling. Rubber stamps and forms in triplicate. Cold, logical, every day planning. "I used locomotive sounds and looped them."There's a legend that there are no birds at Auschwitz but I imagined gazing up high and longing to escape. I have also read about how the inmates began to see the contrails of the American bombers late in the war. I can't imagine what that must have meant to them. I can't imagine how much hope they still held onto after everything that they had experienced. "I imagined a folk song, sang it and then reprised its melody like a memory of the singer gone."In his book The Truce, Primo Levi recounts that the very worst thing said to the inmates by the camp guards was that even if by a miracle some of them survived the camp it wouldn't matter, because the perpetrators were going to destroy all of the evidence and hide it all from the world and nobody that the survivors tried to tell about it would ever believe any of it was true."It is the duty of every one of us as human beings to make sure that that prophecy is never allowed to come to pass."Birkenau Gate, Auschwitz soundscape reimagined by Jon Griffin.
Nate went to the Libertarian National Convention and came back exhausted, frustrated, and convinced the LP has a serious problem. This is his eyewitness breakdown of the convention chaos, the LPNH fight, the rubber chicken heckling, the property rights dispute, and why national LP politics keeps failing liberty. The Libertarian Party should be focused on real-world freedom, lower taxes, less war, property rights, and reducing government power. Instead, Nate argues the convention exposed constant infighting, procedural fights, faction battles, and a party more focused on controlling the "libertarian" brand than winning liberty for actual people. This episode covers the Libertarian Party of New Hampshire controversy, Jeremy Kauffman, the disaffiliation fight, the viral slap incident, promo materials, private property, and why state and local liberty work may matter more than national party drama. 00:00 Good Morning Liberty 01:45 The Libertarian National Convention was a mess 04:00 Why libertarianism is not growing 05:30 No real strategy for more liberty 08:00 Party over principles in the LP 09:30 What has the national LP actually accomplished? 15:45 New LP leadership and the first controversy 18:15 Bylaws, delegate rules, and procedural games 23:15 Jeremy Kauffman and the LPNH fight 25:00 Rubber chickens and heckling speakers 37:15 The alleged Nazi salute moment 41:00 The viral slap and property rights dispute 59:00 What liberty-minded people should do now 01:12:00 Lynn Ulbricht and the good people still doing the work Links: Watch All Episodes: https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLi78svKlBr_8o0dDOX8DxO_Wwxu6WYhhA Watch Host Favorites: https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLi78svKlBr__Zu40RL7mWxCuOOe54zgy2 Join the Fed Haters Club @ joingml.com All links @ gml.bio.link Subscribe, like, comment, and share this episode.

This episode of The Rizzuto Show starts with a simple moral question and somehow ends with the entire room debating whether permanent Cheeto dust is worse than having taste buds in your butt. So yeah… business as usual for your favorite funny podcast.The chaos begins when King Scott asks the gang a hypothetical that immediately exposes everybody's true character: would you rather win $25,000 for yourself or secretly let your best friend win $100,000? Sounds wholesome at first… until everyone starts trying to loophole the situation, negotiate “finder's fees,” and openly admit they'd probably take the money and just buy dinner afterward. Friendship has never looked weaker.Then things take a sharp turn directly into nightmare fuel when another “Would You Rather?” gets dropped on the table: permanent Cheeto dust fingers you can NEVER clean… or taste buds in your butt. Suddenly the studio becomes a think tank for the dumbest scientific discussion ever recorded. Moon explains why finger residue makes him physically uncomfortable. Rafe starts calculating how to avoid tasting his own farts. Rubber gloves become a survival strategy. Nobody comes out looking good here.As if that wasn't enough, the episode also includes:Moon's horror at people licking sauce off their fingersA massage therapist wearing rubber glovesThe realization that gloves technically solve the Cheeto problemRafe inventing a “berry-only diet” to improve hypothetical fart flavorAn alarming amount of discussion about digestive consequencesThen the Riz Quiz kicks off and things somehow become even more embarrassing. Contestants crumble under elementary-level trivia questions while the gang loses their minds over people forgetting how leap years work. Adults fail questions about rainbows, geography, oceans, and basic science while Tony absolutely steamrolls the competition like a trivia machine sent from the future.This funny podcast somehow combines friendship betrayal, snack-food body horror, caller meltdowns, and public humiliation into one perfectly chaotic daily comedy experience. If you enjoy sarcastic humor, weird debates, pop culture nonsense, and the sound of grown adults emotionally unraveling before 10am, welcome home.The Rizzuto Show continues to be the premier destination for bad decisions, ridiculous hypotheticals, and the kind of conversations that absolutely should not happen on live radio… yet somehow do every single day.And yes, we're still thinking about the butt taste buds.Follow The Rizzuto Show → https://linktr.ee/rizzshow for more from your favorite daily comedy show.Connect with The Rizzuto Show Comedy Podcast online → https://1057thepoint.com/RizzShowHear The Rizz Show daily on the radio at 105.7 The Point | Hubbard Radio in St. Louis, MO.Texas ‘Karen' Kicks a C8 Z06 at a Gas Station Over the Sound of His Exhaust'I donated my mum's body to Alzheimer's research but found out they blew her up in the experiment'Two women accused of stealing cash, machine, attempting ATM break-in at Bland bar'NO TIP' fury in Fulton as Domino's driver accused of hitting customer‘Unfortunate:' Classes canceled at NW suburban school after resource officer misplaces weaponWoman accused of giving tattoo to toddlerHow the Explosive 'Pop Rocks and Coke' Legend Destroyed an Iconic Candy Brand“It Is Extremely Unattractive”: Woman Said Men Who Play Video Games Are a Turnoff and the Internet DisagreedCNN founder Ted Turner, a pioneer of cable TV news, dies at 87Celebrities Who've Struggled with Lewy Body DementiaRobert Downey Jr. Says ‘It's Absolute Horses—‘ to Declare That Social Media Influencers Are the ‘Stars of the Future'Delta ending food and beverage service on shorter flightsSecret Service Officer Arrested, Allegedly Masturbated in Hotel Hallway After Trump AssignmentYour 2027 Car Will Decide If You Can DriveSee Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

Before founding Rubber Sole Creative, Stav Ozdoba came to the U.S. with one goal: become a filmmaker. Within months, he was in meetings to direct a feature. Not long after, he learned just how brutal that path could be. What followed wasn't a straight line. It was a pivot. From indie films to editing weddings. From teaching himself Final Cut to landing at Sony. From cutting sizzles and promos to leading teams and eventually building his own creative shop from the ground up. In this episode, Corey and Stav trace that journey and get into what actually sustains a career in this business. Not just passion, but craft. Not just ambition, but clarity around what you're truly good at. They also dig into how storytelling changes across platforms, why "added value" creative matters more than ever, and what it really takes to carve out space as an independent in a crowded, evolving industry.

Leave a rating and review Follow Corey: @coreysnathan across platforms Subscribe for weekly conversations with the people behind the work Key Takeaways The path isn't linear, and that's the point Stav arrived in LA aiming to direct films, but the reality of the industry forced a pivot. Editing became the lane where his instincts and abilities aligned and ultimately opened more doors than chasing directing ever did. Follow what you're good at, not just what you love Passion alone isn't enough. Stav makes a clear distinction between what you enjoy and what you can consistently execute at a high level. The sweet spot is where skill and interest meet. The edit bay is the real classroom Early on, Stav learned by proximity. Watching other editors. Asking questions. Absorbing instincts. Not formal training, but immersion in the craft. Story is the constant, format is the variable Whether it's a trailer, a sizzle, or a social cut, the job is still storytelling. The platforms change. The audience behavior changes. The need to connect emotionally does not. Underserved work is often the biggest opportunity Rubber Sole was built around doing the work others overlook. Behind the scenes, sizzles, added value pieces. Done right, those pieces don't just support campaigns, they drive audience interest. Relationships still matter more than tools Even in an era of AI and rapid change, the business still runs on trust. When stakes are high, people call collaborators they know can deliver. Creative ownership requires risk tolerance Leaving Sony to start Rubber Sole wasn't a calculated leap with guarantees. It was a bet on craft, relationships, and the belief that great work would create opportunity. Standout Quotes "I stopped following my passion and started following what I'm good at." "You're always telling a story, no matter the platform." "If the work is undeniable, the room will open." "We're not competing on price. We're competing against average." "Sometimes if you don't get your dream job, you have to create it."
