Peterman became an owner of the actual J. Peterman catalogue.We know you want to listen to all the ads in this show. On the off-chance you don't, subscribe ad-free here. Hosted on Acast.

Seedance 2.0 is the best AI video model we've ever seen. Bytedance's new AI tool generates 15 second clips of basically anything. But what happens next? And where do we go from here? Gavin got early access before it got locked down. We tested it with original animation, fake sitcoms, anime, and a McDonald's ad. The results are genuinely shocking - multi-shot editing, cinematic camera work, and real celebrity voices coming straight out of the model. People are making fake Seinfeld episodes, Avengers deleted scenes, and Rocky working at a fast food restaurant with Optimus Prime. Plus two new Chinese LLMs beating American models on benchmarks, Google Deep Think scores 84% on ARC-AGI, OpenAI's Codex Spark model, that viral AI post your mom sent you, and Kevin loses his mind building an Open Claw agent named Mr. Tibs who now requests server upgrades at 3am.

Jay Rushin, who left a 20-year finance career to become the CEO of the iconic H&H Bagels in 2014. details the brand's tumultuous history—including multiple bankruptcies and a famous split in ownership—before explaining how he modernized the legacy business by rebuilding its infrastructure and implementing formal systems. A major focus of the conversation is Jay's innovative approach to scaling: by "par-baking" and freezing bagels in a central 20,000-square-foot facility in Queens, H&H can provide authentic New York bagels to franchise locations worldwide without the prohibitive costs of on-site boiling and mixing equipment. The episode concludes with Jay's insights on maintaining product quality through traditional kettle-boiling and long "retarding" (proofing) processes, as well as his strict criteria for hands-on, dedicated franchisees as the brand expands rapidly into markets like Florida and North Carolina.10 Key Takeaways Legacy Brand Awareness: H&H Bagels benefits from massive organic brand recognition due to its history in NYC and features in shows like Seinfeld. Modernizing Infrastructure: Upon acquisition, Jay had to replace or rebuild nearly every piece of kitchen equipment within the first two years to modernize the operation. Operational Hands-Onness: In the early years, Jay worked seven days a week, often personally taking delivery calls and answering phones. The "Nickels and Dimes" Business: Success in the food industry requires meticulous attention to small details, as margins are thin and minor waste (like extra labor or wasted ingredients) adds up over time. Innovation via Par-Baking: By figuring out how to par-bake and freeze bagels, H&H can ship "authentic" product globally while reducing franchisee equipment costs by hundreds of thousands of dollars. Quality Ingredients: A great bagel requires high-protein flour (13-14 grams) compared to lower-quality grocery store versions that typically have only 7-8 grams. The Power of Kettle-Boiling: H&H maintains a strict process of kettle-boiling bagels for 30–45 seconds to create the distinct "skin" and shine that differentiates a real bagel from regular bread. Extended Proofing: The dough is "retarded" (chilled) for 8 to 12 hours, a process that allows the yeast to work and develops significantly more flavor than automated, rapid-production methods. Strategic Growth: Jay chose to build a massive 20,000-square-foot bakery in Queens before fully launching national franchising to ensure they had the capacity to support new locations. Franchisee Criteria: Jay looks for "hands-on" owners rather than passive investors, warning that those who try to "mail it in" or outsource everything are making a mistake.

Dimes and Judas discuss the latest trans school shooter in British Columbia, the Bad Bunny Superbowl performance, and Trump's Venezuela immediately shipping oil to Israel. After exploring the new British Columbia separation movement, they side into a review of “Bandit Country: The IRA & South Armagh” by Toby Harnden. This is a history of the least controllable area during the War of Irish Independence against England, its ruler Tom “Slab” Murphy, and the internal schisms that lead to the downfall of the IRA. They also ask the question: what makes Ireland to unique, and can the IRA be replicated elsewhere?

Today on your favorite daily comedy show, we learned two very important things:Moon Valjean now owns a bowling alley.The Internet is not okay.Yes, it's official — Moon is part-owner of Pin-Up Bowl in The Loop, and somehow he manifested it by yelling “WHO DO YOU THINK YOU ARE? I AM!” for years. We break down how it happened, what changes are coming, why Pete Weber needs his own velvet lane, and how Rafe is absolutely going to live behind the pin machines like a raccoon with a wrench.But because this is The Rizzuto Show, we can't just celebrate something normal.Nope.We pivot into the Epstein files being searchable by name (which obviously led to everyone panic-Googling themselves), Pokémon Go having a PokéStop on Epstein Island (yes, really), and the horrifying realization that your smart home cameras are probably recording way more than you think. Nothing says “fun morning radio” like existential surveillance dread.In between all that, we debate whether Timothée Chalamet is too confident (spoiler: he's just French and talented), Nickelback potentially collabing with Don Broco, The Black Keys adjusting their tour expectations, and Don Henley refusing to listen to “Desperado” because even legends wake up at 3AM thinking, “I could've done that vocal better.”We also reveal our comfort TV shows (Seinfeld, The Office, Ancient Aliens, and apparently Game of Thrones for “relaxation”), revisit a VERY special episode of Mr. Belvedere that absolutely did not age gently, and nearly get FCC'd by an enthusiastic mashup of Wagon Wheel and Boyz-N-the-Hood.It's bowling. It's conspiracy spirals. It's corporate rock fan analysis. It's PJ Sparks turning 57.It's your favorite daily comedy show doing what it does best — turning local headlines, celebrity chaos, and accidental audio risks into 2+ hours of beautifully structured nonsense.If you came for polished professionalism… we have 73 bowling balls instead.And we'll see you at the Pete Weber lane.Follow The Rizzuto Show → linktr.ee/rizzshow for more from your favorite daily comedy show.Connect with The Rizzuto Show Comedy Podcast online → 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.

Television has shaped American culture for more than 70 years—but which shows truly defined each decade? Michael is joined by legendary TV critic Alan Sepinwall (The Wall Street Journal; "The Sopranos Sessions" author) to break down the most influential TV series from the 1950s to today, from I Love Lucy and The Twilight Zone to Seinfeld, The Sopranos, RuPaul's Drag Race, and Stranger Things. Then, TC joins Michael to preview this week's episode of The TC After Dark Podcast—covering Dry (or Damp) January, the Costco rotisserie chicken controversy, viral headlines, and whether “Josh” is the new “Karen.” Smart, funny, and culture-packed—this is TV history, media insight, and modern life all in one episode. Original air date 6 Febuary 2026 Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company. See https://pcm.adswizz.com for information about our collection and use of personal data for advertising.

The Slayer Statute is supposed to be simple. You kill someone, you don't inherit from them. But California law has language that creates an exception — and a 1979 case proves it works.Estate of Ladd involved a mother who killed her two sons. She was found not guilty by reason of insanity. Her ex-husband argued she should be barred from inheriting under the Slayer Statute. The California Court of Appeal disagreed. The ruling: an NGRI verdict does not constitute a conviction, and insanity negates the "intentional" requirement in Probate Code Section 250. She inherited from the children she killed.That precedent has never been overturned. And it applies directly to Nick Reiner.Rob and Michele Reiner's estate is worth an estimated $200 million. Castle Rock Entertainment. Seinfeld royalties. Malibu real estate. Four children stand to inherit. If the estate is divided equally, Nick's share could be around $50 million.A conviction automatically bars him. But if Nick gets an NGRI verdict — which legal analysts say is the most likely defense strategy — he may still be entitled to that inheritance under existing California law.His siblings Jake and Romy would have the option to challenge it in probate court. But they'd have to initiate the lawsuit themselves. They'd carry the burden of proving intent. And they'd be arguing against a criminal verdict that already found Nick lacked the mental capacity to act intentionally.This is the financial reality behind the Reiner case. The loophole. The precedent. And the incentive structure nobody's discussing.#NickReiner #RobReiner #MicheleReiner #SlayerStatute #InsanityDefense #Inheritance #TrueCrimeToday #CaliforniaLaw #EstateOfLadd #LegalLoopholeJoin Our SubStack For AD-FREE ADVANCE EPISODES & EXTRAS!: https://hiddenkillers.substack.com/Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

Hollywood's latest “anxiety hack” isn't a new miracle drug — it's an old medication with a new spotlight. Jason Alexander and Peter Tilden dig into the celebrity buzz around beta blockers with Dr. Nasser Ghaemi, an academic psychiatrist and professor of psychiatry at Tufts University. They break down what beta blockers (like propranolol) actually do, why actors and musicians use them for performance anxiety, and the big catch: they can reduce symptoms without addressing the root cause. Dr. Ghaemi explains when “situational” use can make sense — and when it can backfire with side effects like low blood pressure, cognitive dulling, or added risk for people with asthma or diabetes. Along the way, Jason and Peter riff on Hollywood nerves, guest-star pressure on Seinfeld, and a wild story about “anxiety drugs in rivers” making salmon bolder — because of course it does. The episode lands on a bigger debate: quick-fix culture, rising anxiety in young people, and why AI therapy can't replace a human clinician (yet). Learn more about your ad choices.

You're listening to American Ground Radio with Stephen Parr and Louis R. Avallone. This is the full show for January 30, 2026. 0:30 For decades, Chick-fil-A wasn’t just fast food — it was a cultural symbol, known for Christian values, closed Sundays, and a service-first mindset that set it apart from every other national brand. But a new article is raising questions about whether that identity has quietly changed. From shifts in charitable giving and accusations of abandoning Christian organizations, to debates over social media messaging, corporate neutrality, and ideological boycotts, we dig into what’s real, what’s rumor, and what actually matters to everyday customers. Is Chick-fil-A still the same company millions trusted — or is this another example of politics creeping into business? And more importantly, should consumers care as long as the chicken is good and the business isn’t hostile to their values? This conversation tackles faith, free markets, merit, cancel culture, and the growing pressure on companies to pick a side. 9:30 Plus, we cover the Top 3 Things You Need to Know. Reporter and former CNN anchor Don Lemon was arrested by federal authorities.He was part of a group of people who invaded a Christian Church service two weekends ago as part of the anti-ICE demonstrations in Minneapolis, Minnesota. President Trump has announced who he plans on naming as the next head of the Federal Reserve.Trump named Kevin Warsh to be the next Fed Chair. A federal Judge has dismissed murder charges against Luigi Mangione.Mangione is accused of killing United Healthcare CEO Brian Thompson, shooting him from behind on the sidewalk just outside a hotel in Manhattan. 12:30 Get TrimROX from Victory Nutrition International for 20% off. Go to vni.life/agr and use the promo code AGR20. 13:00 We react to an unconscionable move by Mexico’s president, Claudia Sheinbaum, who has reportedly sent her top diplomat to the highest levels of the U.S. government — not to offer cooperation, but to demand that the United States stop targeting Mexican drug cartels. Instead of proposing joint operations to crush fentanyl trafficking or dismantle criminal empires, Sheinbaum’s priority appears to be protecting cartels from U.S. action. We dive into cartel violence, corruption, and control over entire regions of Mexico, while questioning whether the Mexican government is unwilling or simply unable to confront them. 16:00 Is Ashley Tisdale a victim of a toxic Hollywood mom clique — or is this just mean-girl drama with a grown-up twist? American Mamas Teri Netterville and Kimberly Burleson weigh in on the actress’s viral op-ed claiming she was iced out by a celebrity mom group in California. From social media oversharing and jealousy to the dangers of calling out friend groups publicly, the conversation explores whether speaking out actually reveals more about the accuser than the accused. With stories every mom can relate to, we break down mom group dynamics, celebrity cliques, and why “bowing out gracefully” may be the wisest move — especially when kids, schools, and long-term relationships are involved. This candid discussion tackles toxic mom culture, Hollywood parenting drama, and the real-world consequences of airing friendship grievances online. If you'd like to ask our American Mamas a question, go to our website, AmericanGroundRadio.com/mamas and click on the Ask the Mamas button. 23:00 We break down a dramatic escalation in U.S. foreign policy as the Trump administration moves to effectively cut off oil money flowing from Venezuela and Mexico to communist Cuba. With sanctions finally being enforced, “ghost ships” carrying illegal Venezuelan oil are being seized, oil deliveries are drying up, and Cuba’s energy lifeline is collapsing. We connect the dots between Nicolás Maduro, the Cuban regime, and broader threats to U.S. national security, including terrorism and regional instability. Halted shipments from Mexico under U.S. pressure and energy companies pulling out of Cuba are part of a much larger strategy to dismantle hostile regimes in Venezuela, Cuba, and even Iran — and signals that America is no longer looking the other way. 25:30 A longtime Democrat strategist is now delivering a warning that has the Left fuming — and we can’t help but laugh. Rui Teixeira, author of Demographics Is Destiny, says the permanent Democrat majority he once predicted is collapsing, and unless Democrats radically change course, they’re headed for permanent minority status. His solution? Seven “realism” principles that sound a whole lot like Republican policy positions. From energy and economic growth to border security, merit over DEI, biological reality, and even patriotism, we down why Teixeira’s prescriptions are completely incompatible with today’s Democrat Party. And we ask the obvious question: if winning requires Democrats to believe everything Republicans already do, why have a Democrat Party at all? 32:00 Get Prodovite Plus from Victory Nutrition International for 20% off. Go to vni.life/agr and use the promo code AGR20. 32:30 The Democratic Party should take a page straight out of Seinfeld. Using George Costanza’s famous “do the opposite” philosophy, we make the case that every major Democrat instinct — on crime, border security, energy policy, culture, and government spending — has produced the exact opposite of what was promised. Compassion becomes chaos, equity breeds resentment, and progress leads to decline. Tying the analogy to recent warnings from Democrat strategist Rui Teixeira, the we explore whether Democrats could actually win again by abandoning their failed instincts and embracing the opposite approach. 35:30 Plus, it's Fake News Friday! We're putting you to the test with our weekly game of headlines—are they real news, fake news, or really fake news? From ICE chaos and AI images in Senate, to truly ridiculous stories involving Bruce Springsteen, kangaroos, and a “doomsday clock set to infinity," can you spot the fake news? Play along, keep score, and share your results with us on Facebook page: facebook.com/AmericanGroundRadio. 39:30 We reflect on the life and legacy of legendary Notre Dame coach Lou Holtz, following news that he has entered hospice care. More than a Hall of Fame football coach, Holtz was a mentor, a man of faith, and a relentless advocate for discipline, accountability, and personal responsibility. Drawing from personal encounters with him, the conversation highlights how Holtz focused on building men of character first — believing that winning followed naturally. It’s a heartfelt tribute to a leader who shaped generations far beyond the football field and a reminder of how rare and necessary moral clarity and unapologetic leadership are in today’s culture. 41:30 And we finish off with some words of wisdom about long life that will make you say, "Whoa!"

Tom Wilson (Back to the Future, SpongeBob SquarePants) joins us for a deeply reflective, funny, and unexpectedly moving conversation about legacy, identity, and the long shadow of iconic roles. Tom opens up about the weight of Back to the Future, how fame can both elevate and trap an artist, and why learning to respect his own craft mattered more than applause. He shares vivid stories from the early stand up comedy scene alongside Seinfeld, Leno, and Reiser, his experiences working with Crispin Glover and Michael J Fox, and the personal philosophy that helped him build a grounded life beyond Hollywood expectations.
