Frank revisits Night of the Living Dead (1968) and breaks down why it still feels ahead of its time, even with a shoestring budget and simple setup. He walks through the full plot from the cemetery opening to the brutal ending, calls out the movie's "proto zombie rules" (headshots, fire, escalating panic), and digs into the constant clash between Ben and Harry Cooper over how to survive. Frank also shares a handful of behind-the-scenes trivia, then closes by asking listeners to help pick the next holiday movie review. Timestamps and Topics 00:00:05 Welcome to Challenge Accepted and why this zombie classic still matters 00:01:00 Why black-and-white works best here, plus where to watch it 00:02:50 The setup: Barbara and Johnny head to the cemetery 00:04:30 Barbara reaches the farmhouse, Ben arrives, and the house gets fortified 00:06:35 The radio updates and the first "rules" start taking shape 00:07:55 Basement survivors revealed and the Ben vs Harry Cooper conflict begins 00:10:40 The truck plan, Molotovs, fire tactics, and the risk of leaving the house 00:12:45 The truck explosion, the fallout, and tensions boil over 00:14:35 Karen's bite, the TV explanation, and the night spirals into tragedy 00:17:30 Johnny returns, Barbara's fate, and Ben's last stand 00:18:35 The posse arrives and the ending lands like a gut punch 00:19:55 Fun facts and trivia roundup 00:23:10 Holiday movie suggestions, reviews, and where to send your challenges Key Takeaways Night of the Living Dead didn't just popularize zombies, it shaped the survival logic that later movies and games keep borrowing. The horror works because the tension never lets up, and most of it comes from people disagreeing under pressure, not gore. Ben and Harry Cooper feel like the blueprint for the "leader vs bunker guy" argument that shows up in tons of modern zombie stories. The film's simplicity is part of the magic: one main location, clear stakes, and rules that get built in real time through broadcasts. The ending is still sharp because it refuses to offer comfort, even after the long night is "over." Memorable Quotes "Black and white is the best way to watch it." "This is the one that kind of set the rules that we use even to today." "If you shoot them in the body, that doesn't do anything. You have to shoot them in the head." "We're in this together."

Lantern lifted, I stepped into the Crimson Cavern where a Tawny Steppe Wyvern crouched over a cache of meat and a single gleaming amethyst. It watched me calmly, dust motes swirling around its tawny wings. In the Golden Grotto, a Bellicose Firevern crackled with heat, sparks skittering across piles of scorched stone as it let out a low rumble. Finally, in the Amethyst Abyss, a Subterranean Basilisk hatchling blinked up at me, tiny and glittering, nestled among crystal shards. Once they got accustomed to me, the three dragons allowed me to go about my dracologist business and measure their Wyrmspan by Connie Vogelmann from Stonemaier Games with art by Clémentine Campardou.Read the full review here: https://tabletopgamesblog.com/2025/12/20/wyrmspan-saturday-review/Useful LinksWyrmspan: https://stonemaiergames.com/games/wyrmspan/Rulebook: https://www.dropbox.com/scl/fo/ulyfze69rb24tsgip7mn7/h/Wyrmspan/Wyr_Rulebook_r19.pdf?rlkey=ha4lz6kvkwmjaglah0lwtzjto&dl=0Rules Video: https://youtu.be/zbqpVm1lCk8?si=d_w34lwrWPj7NQEKStonemaier Games: https://stonemaiergames.com/BGG listing: https://boardgamegeek.com/boardgame/410201/wyrmspanWingspan review: https://tabletopgamesblog.com/2019/03/16/wingspan/MusicIntro Music: Bomber (Sting) by Riot (⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://www.youtube.com/audiolibrary/⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠)Sound Effects:bbc.co.uk – © copyright 2025 BBCZapSplat (https://www.zapsplat.com/)Music by: Bensound.com/royalty-free-musicLicense code: PKXFZ8Q9Z7SMQQCYArtist: : TURNIQUEMusic by: BensoundLicense code: PMTMT9TCA62QQGBAArtist: : Lunar YearsSupportIf you want to support this podcast financially, please check out the links below:Ko-Fi: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://ko-fi.com/TabletopGamesBlog⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Patreon: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://www.patreon.com/tabletopgamesblog⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Website: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://tabletopgamesblog.com/support/⁠

Dimitri Staelens spent 15 years directing quality across a range of breweries owned by Duvel Moortgat in Europe and North America. Along the way, he built a deep understanding of ingredients and process across a diverse range of styles and recipes. In 2020, however, he chose to scale down, launching Adept (https://desmederijwinksele.be/nl/brouwen-proeven)—a small brewery in Winksele, Belgium, attached to a restaurant and meeting space not far from where he lives. Now, he brews with the locals in mind, exploring unorthodox ingredients in his Belgian blond ale—wuch as Simcoe hops and flaked rice—while pushing the envelope of malt flavor with imperial raw ales that often spend time in spirits barrels. In this episode, Staelens discusses: designing Belgian ales for diverse occasions whirlpool-hopping with Simcoe and blending with Noble hops building expansive grist bills with wheat, flaked rice, Munich malt, pils malt, and sugar sourcing Belgian-grown and -malted barley challenges in 2023 with changing gelatinization temperatures brewing no-boil raw ales, both dark and light avoiding DMS in raw ales the importance of carbon dioxide in Belgian beers And more.

Long ago, spirits and demons stirred in the land of the rising sun, wreaking havoc upon crops, rivers, and villages, unseen and unstoppable. As an Onmyoji, a practitioner of ancient cosmology, you learned to capture these restless entities, restoring balance where others faltered. Yet word came that your own village suffered, and another Onmyoji had been called to intervene, an affront to your duty and skill. With careful calculation and swift action, you must outwit your rival, claiming mastery over chaos.

In this unforgettable conversation, NewsNation anchor and instant New York Times bestselling author Leland “Lucky” Vittert pulls back the curtain on a childhood that included late speech, crushing loneliness, and a school world that often met neurodivergence with cruelty instead of care. But Born Lucky isn't an autism “how-to.” It's a father-son love story about what changes when one adult refuses to give up. Lucky shares how his dad chose a radical path: not removing adversity, but walking him through it—teaching character, work ethic, and the kind of social “tools” that slowly turn isolation into connection. The result is deep hope and a reminder that kids aren't doomed by their hardest circumstances. Ginny and Lucky also dig into the practical magic of a hands-on childhood: flying lessons at eight, rowing, scuba diving, Michigan summers by Lake Michigan that all provided real risks, real effort, real confidence earned. Those experiences didn't just fill time; they built transferable skills and a resilience that later carried Lucky through war-zone reporting and prime-time journalism. Along the way, you'll hear about the quiet heroes like Mr. Mick whose belief became a lifeline. If you've ever worried your child won't find their place or wondered if you're doing enough this episode will steady you, strengthen you, and send you back outside with fresh courage.

From the mist of Lake Titicaca, eight children of Inti and Mama Quilla stepped onto the high plains, their feet brushing the grass and waking the land itself. As their journey continued, the mountains claimed some of them, caves swallowed others, until only one final pair held the golden rods. By then, they had taught the first clans who had accompanied them to weave, shape clay, carve terraces into the mountainside and coax life from reed and soil. These clans were the Ayar: Children of the Sun by Fabio Lopiano and Mandela Fernandez-Grandon from Osprey Games with art by Ian O'Toole.Read the full review here: https://tabletopgamesblog.com/2025/11/22/ayar-children-of-the-sun-saturday-review/Useful LinksAyar: Children of the Sun: https://www.ospreypublishing.com/uk/ayar-children-of-the-sun-9781472860071/Rulebook: https://www.ospreypublishing.com/media/fcyh2h5j/ayar-rulebook.pdfOsprey Games: https://www.ospreypublishing.com/uk/BGG listing: https://boardgamegeek.com/boardgame/429438/ayar-children-of-the-sunUK Games Expo 2025 review: https://tabletopgamesblog.com/2025/06/07/uk-games-expo-2025-saturday-review/The Druids of Edora review: https://tabletopgamesblog.com/2025/11/15/the-druids-of-edora-saturday-review/MusicIntro Music: Bomber (Sting) by Riot (⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://www.youtube.com/audiolibrary/⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠)Music: Beauty Of The Earth 3 - Grasslands, produced by Sascha EndeLink: https://ende.app/en/song/12842-beauty-of-the-earth-3-grasslandsMusic: Binaural Sleep Vol. 5, produced by Sascha EndeLink: https://ende.app/en/song/13200-binaural-sleep-vol-5SupportIf you want to support this podcast financially, please check out the links below:Ko-Fi: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://ko-fi.com/TabletopGamesBlog⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Patreon: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://www.patreon.com/tabletopgamesblog⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Website: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://tabletopgamesblog.com/support/

People like Prince Andrew live by a rule book that the rest of us don't even get to see. When ordinary people get accused of wrongdoing, they face real consequences — investigations, charges, public humiliation, the works. But when it's a royal, the system suddenly becomes very delicate, very cautious, and very secretive. Doors that slam shut for everyone else magically open for them. Andrew, for instance, managed to dodge law enforcement interviews, avoid depositions for years, and settle a major sexual abuse lawsuit without ever admitting guilt. Every step of the way, his titles, connections, and family name served as a kind of diplomatic armor — the privilege of being born above accountability.That's the true “Rule Book for Royals”: deny everything, hide behind tradition, and let the palace machinery manage the damage. The same institutions that claim moral leadership close ranks to protect their own, wrapping scandal in ceremony and silence. For men like Andrew, shame isn't career-ending — it's just an image problem to be managed by courtiers, PR consultants, and lawyers on retainer. The royal playbook isn't about justice or truth; it's about preservation. And as long as the crown still glitters, the rule book that governs them will always have different laws — and fewer consequences.to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.com

Andrew, for instance, managed to dodge law enforcement interviews, avoid depositions for years, and settle a major sexual abuse lawsuit without ever admitting guilt. Every step of the way, his titles, connections, and family name served as a kind of diplomatic armor — the privilege of being born above accountability.That's the true “Rule Book for Royals”: deny everything, hide behind tradition, and let the palace machinery manage the damage. The same institutions that claim moral leadership close ranks to protect their own, wrapping scandal in ceremony and silence. For men like Andrew, shame isn't career-ending — it's just an image problem to be managed by courtiers, PR consultants, and lawyers on retainer. The royal playbook isn't about justice or truth; it's about preservation. And as long as the crown still glitters, the rule book that governs them will always have different laws — and fewer consequences.to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.comBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-epstein-chronicles--5003294/support.

BT & Sal are fired up over the New York Jets' shocking trade of cornerback Sauce Gardner for two first-round picks and WR A.D. Mitchell from the Colts. They declare the move a "home run," arguing that GM Moogy has shown the guts to make the difficult decisions necessary to clean house and accelerate the Jets' rebuild. The hosts debate whether this is a Jamal Adams trade repeat, ultimately deciding it's different and far better, as it gives the new regime Aaron Glenn and Moogy the assets to build their own culture. They praise Moogy's forward vision and financial solvency boost, while arguing that a corner, even a talented one, doesn't help a losing team win enough games. The segment wraps with a dramatic reading of the "Call of the Day" celebrating the trade.

How did the British Army go from the muddle of the Boer War to the professionalism of 1918? In this episode, historian David Keable-Elliot talks to the show about The Doctrine of the British Army — the forgotten Field Service Regulations that shaped everything from tactics to training. It's the story of how a rulebook turned chaos into coherence, and helped Britain win the First World War.

The land was divided, its provinces fractured by ambition and betrayal. Armies marched through rice fields, emissaries whispered in candlelit halls, and the people looked to their daimyo for guidance and protection. Every order carried the weight of loyalty and the promise of power. It was a time when each decision could tilt the balance of history, and so the samurai sent out their General Orders: Sengoku Jidai by David Thompson and Trevor Benjamin from Osprey Games with art by Tanner Staheli.Read the full review here: https://tabletopgamesblog.com/2025/11/01/general-orders-sengoku-jidai-saturday-review/Useful LinksGeneral Orders: Sengoku Jidai: https://www.ospreypublishing.com/uk/general-orders-sengoku-jidai-9781472869791/Rulebook: https://boardgamegeek.com/filepage/306284/general-orders-sengoku-jidai-rulebookRules video: https://www.youtube.com/live/c3VNMR7NTsE?si=yEAXWfVlr4Kirl_D&t=265Osprey Games: https://www.ospreypublishing.com/uk/BGG listing: https://boardgamegeek.com/boardgame/434425/general-orders-sengoku-jidaiGeneral Orders: World War II review: https://tabletopgamesblog.com/2024/02/17/general-orders-world-war-ii-saturday-review/MusicIntro Music: Bomber (Sting) by Riot (⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://www.youtube.com/audiolibrary/⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠)Music by https://www.bensound.comLicense code: HVGMBA9NX5PHIG8AArtist: : Benjamin TissotMusic: "Victory" by AShamaluevMusic.Website: https://www.ashamaluevmusic.comSupportIf you want to support this podcast financially, please check out the links below:Ko-Fi: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://ko-fi.com/TabletopGamesBlog⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Patreon: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://www.patreon.com/tabletopgamesblog⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Website: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://tabletopgamesblog.com/support/

In an era where smartphones slip into children's hands long before they're ready, parents are left asking the same desperate question: What should I do about my kids and technology? Dr. Jean Twenge, renowned psychologist, researcher, and author of iGen and Generations, returns to The 1000 Hours Outside Podcast with a lifeline: her brand-new book Ten Rules for Raising Kids in a High-Tech World. Drawing on decades of data and her own experience raising three teens, Dr. Twenge explains why depression among teens doubled between 2011 and 2019, how smartphones rewired childhood almost overnight, and why conversations alone aren't enough. Rules, she argues, aren't restrictions—they're the guardrails that preserve sleep, mental health, independence, and joy. From the rule of “no phones in bedrooms” to “pick an age and stick with it,” Dr. Twenge outlines a blueprint every family can adapt today. She shows how saying “not yet” to screens actually says “yes” to resilience, friendships, reading, play, and confidence. This episode is both sobering and empowering, reminding parents that they're not powerless in a tech-saturated culture. With clarity and compassion, Dr. Twenge hands us the rulebook we've been waiting for.

When Peyush Bansal spent more than Rs 200 crore to buy back Lenskart shares from investors at a deep discount, it wasn't just a bold trade. It was a rare  move few founders manage. He essentially clawed back equity before heading into an IPO. And this extra stake pushed him into “promoter” status, a role many startup leaders once avoided but are now racing to embrace.

Hey friends, Chase here. Ever feel like you're waiting for someone to hand you the map? You know—the step-by-step plan for building a creative life you actually want. The rules for how to get unstuck. The playbook for doing meaningful work without burning out or selling out. Here's the truth: That rulebook doesn't exist. No one's coming to hand it to you. Not your boss. Not a guru. Not even me. And honestly? That's a good thing. Because if there's no rulebook… you get to write your own. In this episode, I share 11 lessons that have helped me (and countless others) carve a path when there wasn't one. They're not “rules” in the traditional sense—they're more like signposts. Principles you can remix into a guide for your own life. Here's a taste of what we cover: Why “get sh*t done” beats overthinking every single time How to make your own rules—and know when to break them Why practicing your craft relentlessly matters more than chasing shiny shortcuts Why helping others isn't just nice—it's a success multiplier The big idea? Stop waiting for permission. Stop looking for the perfect plan. The only way to build the life you want is to start where you are, with what you have, and figure it out as you go. There's no perfect path. Just your path. So grab a pen. Start drafting your rulebook—messy, incomplete, and uniquely yours. Because the life you're craving? It won't come from playing by someone else's rules. Until next time—stay bold, and keep creating.
