Hi everyone! Today I'm talking with Bay Area photographer Ryan Shaver, who shoots exclusively on Polaroid.

After completing his graduate research paper, Predictive Processing for Artificial Intelligence & Cognition, Ryan leaned fully into instant film as a way to preserve memories with honesty and imperfection.In 2022, he bet that people would eventually grow tired of the overly polished look of AI-generated imagery and crave something real. He went all in on a niche few pursue due to its high costs and challenges, landing his first client within a year.

Back in the 90s, I would often take late night drives between the San Francisco Bay Area (where my parents lived) and Santa Barbara (where I went to college). During the dark, lonely hours cruising down highway 101, I'd listen to a funky, weird, slightly creepy yet interesting radio show. I never quite understood what it was. That's because it was Art Bell's Coast to Coast AM radio show.TranscriptsMessage for Simplecast: For rough transcripts of this episode head over to https://www.archaeologypodcastnetwork.com/pseudo/174ContactKinkella Teaches Archaeology (Youtube)Blog: Kinkella Teaches Archaeology ArchPodNetAPN Website: https://www.archpodnet.comAPN on Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/archpodnetAPN on Twitter: https://www.twitter.com/archpodnetAPN on Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/archpodnetMerch StoreAffiliatesMotion Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.

One could say that Tron: Legacy (2010) is a polarizing film. If you were born at a certain time, it's legendary Daft Punk score and slick visuals are probably pretty nostalgic for you. If you were older, and especially if you were a fan of the original, Tron: Legacy (2010) likely felt like a cash grab. For us, it seems this was a film that left an impact on our journeys into loving movies, and it undoubtedly has left a cultural impact. Enjoy our review of the classic debut film of Joseph Kosinski, Tron: Legacy (2010).    Cinema Spectator is a movie podcast hosted by Isaac Ransom, Juzo Greenwood, and Cameron Tuttle.

While most startups face a 90% failure rate, David's incubator, Badass Labs, boasts an astounding 95% success rate.The secret? David's incubator takes on time-consuming tasks and provides founders with the tools and support they need to focus on high-value activities. “We take what I call low-value, high-risk tasks off of the responsibility of these early founders,” David explained. By handling procurement, accounting, and regulatory compliance, the incubator saves startups time, money, and frustration.For example, David shared how the incubator's full-service procurement system saves companies more than 70 hours of work while also cutting costs. “Because it's a pooled spend model, it allows us to be one giant customer instead of many little ones,” he said. This approach not only improves efficiency but also doubles the runway for many startups.David's focus goes beyond logistics—he's also deeply invested in coaching founders to grow. He emphasized the importance of coachability, saying, “If they are open to guidance and comfortable with being vulnerable, they'll grow.” This hands-on support ensures founders avoid rookie mistakes, expand their skill sets, and present their companies as professional and investor-ready.The work being done at Badass Labs and Tomorrow Biotech isn't just about improving success rates—it's about saving lives. By accelerating the development of biotech innovations, David's incubator is paving the way for groundbreaking ideas to reach the market faster.If you're inspired by David's approach and want to learn more about his incubator, visit badasslabs.org. With multiple locations across the U.S. and plans to expand, the program is open to biotech, climate tech, and other transformative startups. By helping founders focus on what matters most, David is proving that with the right support, startups can defy the odds and change the world.tl;dr:David Kiewlich's incubator flips the biotech startup success rate from 10% to 95% with unique support.The program removes tedious tasks, saving founders time and enabling them to focus on execution.Coachability is critical—David helps founders grow by fostering their confidence and guiding their development.David shared a superpower: unlocking potential by building up others and inspiring action.Tomorrow Biotech and Badass Labs accelerate innovation, empowering founders to bring life-saving ideas to market.How to Develop Unlocking Potential As a SuperpowerDavid Kiewlich's superpower is his ability to unlock the potential in others by fostering their confidence and helping them grow into their best selves. Reflecting on his life, David shared how he developed this skill early on, saying, “You become sort of focused on how you can lift up and protect everyone around you.” He uses this mindset to empower biotech founders, helping them become “superhumans” who think bigger, execute better, and achieve more.One inspiring story David shared highlights his superpower in action. Years ago, he organized a grassroots effort to rescue surplus food from wholesalers and deliver it to nonprofits across the San Francisco Bay Area. Over the course of a year, he single-handedly moved nearly 600,000 pounds of produce, ensuring it reached those in need instead of ending up in landfills. By showing what's possible, David inspired others to replicate his efforts, amplifying his impact.To develop this superpower, David suggests:Focus on building up others rather than seeking credit for yourself.Encourage people by expressing belief in their abilities.Help others see what's possible by setting an example.Support people in a way that allows them to focus on their strengths.By following David's example and advice, you can make unlocking potential a skill. With practice and effort, you could make it a superpower that enables you to do more good in the world.Remember, however, that research into success suggests that building on your own superpowers is more important than creating new ones or overcoming weaknesses. You do you!Guest ProfileDavid Kiewlich (he/him):Founder and CEO, Tomorrow Biotech CorporationAbout Tomorrow Biotech Corporation: Tomorrow Biotech Corporation consists of an accelerator fund, an early stage fund and includes the Bay Area Disruptor and Startup Support Labs (BADASS Labs) a 501c3, non-profit series of biotech incubators. While the funds are new, the incubator has been in operation for 6 years, supporting dozens of pre-seed through series B (and beyond) companies. With a track record of 50 of 55 company successes for members of the incubator, this ecosystem has a uniquely successful approach to founder support, which has substantially changed the concept and expectations for early stage incubators. BADASS Labs is more than a 501c3, non-profit biotech incubator that rents lab space to small businesses. It is a strategic ally that empowers biotech entrepreneurs to achieve their full potential. By offering a comprehensive suite of services, such as purchasing, waste management, operations and even health insurance plans for its members, BADASS Labs enables its clients to focus on their core competencies and substantially reduce their operational costs. BADASS Labs bridges the gap between research and commercialization, by facilitating novel technologies from academic, national lab or self-generated sources into viable products that can enhance the domestic supply chain and generate regional employment. While we can incubate companies at any stage, we have a particular focus on the earlier side, from Pre-Seed through Series B stages.Website: badasslabs.org, TomorrowBiotech.com, MissionBoosterProcurement.comBiographical Information: Dr. David Kiewlich (Ph.D. in Cell and Developmental Biology) is a serial founder and entrepreneur in biotech.

Closing out our spooky month, we're taking a look at The Vast of Night (2019). A small town in New Mexico starts hearing some disturbances in the night, and two young teens investigate where they might be coming from. The film is more Twilight Zone than Saw, but it certainly makes you think about what goes bump in the night. It's the debut film of Andrew Patterson, starring Sierra McCormick and Jake Horowitz. Enjoy this review of The Vast of Night (2019).   Cinema Spectator is a movie podcast hosted by Isaac Ransom, Juzo Greenwood, and Cameron Tuttle.

While most startups face a 90% failure rate, David's incubator, Badass Labs, boasts an astounding 95% success rate.The secret? David's incubator takes on time-consuming tasks and provides founders with the tools and support they need to focus on high-value activities. “We take what I call low-value, high-risk tasks off of the responsibility of these early founders,” David explained. By handling procurement, accounting, and regulatory compliance, the incubator saves startups time, money, and frustration.For example, David shared how the incubator's full-service procurement system saves companies more than 70 hours of work while also cutting costs. “Because it's a pooled spend model, it allows us to be one giant customer instead of many little ones,” he said. This approach not only improves efficiency but also doubles the runway for many startups.David's focus goes beyond logistics—he's also deeply invested in coaching founders to grow. He emphasized the importance of coachability, saying, “If they are open to guidance and comfortable with being vulnerable, they'll grow.” This hands-on support ensures founders avoid rookie mistakes, expand their skill sets, and present their companies as professional and investor-ready.The work being done at Badass Labs and Tomorrow Biotech isn't just about improving success rates—it's about saving lives. By accelerating the development of biotech innovations, David's incubator is paving the way for groundbreaking ideas to reach the market faster.If you're inspired by David's approach and want to learn more about his incubator, visit badasslabs.org. With multiple locations across the U.S. and plans to expand, the program is open to biotech, climate tech, and other transformative startups. By helping founders focus on what matters most, David is proving that with the right support, startups can defy the odds and change the world.tl;dr:David Kiewlich's incubator flips the biotech startup success rate from 10% to 95% with unique support.The program removes tedious tasks, saving founders time and enabling them to focus on execution.Coachability is critical—David helps founders grow by fostering their confidence and guiding their development.David shared a superpower: unlocking potential by building up others and inspiring action.Tomorrow Biotech and Badass Labs accelerate innovation, empowering founders to bring life-saving ideas to market.How to Develop Unlocking Potential As a SuperpowerDavid Kiewlich's superpower is his ability to unlock the potential in others by fostering their confidence and helping them grow into their best selves. Reflecting on his life, David shared how he developed this skill early on, saying, “You become sort of focused on how you can lift up and protect everyone around you.” He uses this mindset to empower biotech founders, helping them become “superhumans” who think bigger, execute better, and achieve more.One inspiring story David shared highlights his superpower in action. Years ago, he organized a grassroots effort to rescue surplus food from wholesalers and deliver it to nonprofits across the San Francisco Bay Area. Over the course of a year, he single-handedly moved nearly 600,000 pounds of produce, ensuring it reached those in need instead of ending up in landfills. By showing what's possible, David inspired others to replicate his efforts, amplifying his impact.To develop this superpower, David suggests:Focus on building up others rather than seeking credit for yourself.Encourage people by expressing belief in their abilities.Help others see what's possible by setting an example.Support people in a way that allows them to focus on their strengths.By following David's example and advice, you can make unlocking potential a skill. With practice and effort, you could make it a superpower that enables you to do more good in the world.Remember, however, that research into success suggests that building on your own superpowers is more important than creating new ones or overcoming weaknesses. You do you!Guest ProfileDavid Kiewlich (he/him):Founder and CEO, Tomorrow Biotech CorporationAbout Tomorrow Biotech Corporation: Tomorrow Biotech Corporation consists of an accelerator fund, an early stage fund and includes the Bay Area Disruptor and Startup Support Labs (BADASS Labs) a 501c3, non-profit series of biotech incubators. While the funds are new, the incubator has been in operation for 6 years, supporting dozens of pre-seed through series B (and beyond) companies. With a track record of 50 of 55 company successes for members of the incubator, this ecosystem has a uniquely successful approach to founder support, which has substantially changed the concept and expectations for early stage incubators. BADASS Labs is more than a 501c3, non-profit biotech incubator that rents lab space to small businesses. It is a strategic ally that empowers biotech entrepreneurs to achieve their full potential. By offering a comprehensive suite of services, such as purchasing, waste management, operations and even health insurance plans for its members, BADASS Labs enables its clients to focus on their core competencies and substantially reduce their operational costs. BADASS Labs bridges the gap between research and commercialization, by facilitating novel technologies from academic, national lab or self-generated sources into viable products that can enhance the domestic supply chain and generate regional employment. While we can incubate companies at any stage, we have a particular focus on the earlier side, from Pre-Seed through Series B stages.Website: badasslabs.org, TomorrowBiotech.com, MissionBoosterProcurement.comBiographical Information: Dr. David Kiewlich (Ph.D. in Cell and Developmental Biology) is a serial founder and entrepreneur in biotech. With over 35 years' experience working for industry, as well as 6 startups of his own (in Oncology, Cell Based Therapies and Synthetic Biology), his background is excellently aligned with the needs and struggles of pre-commercialization startups. He founded and runs Tomorrow Biotech, which includes the Bay Area Disruptor and Startup Support Labs (BADASS Labs) a 501c3, non-profit series of biotech incubators, which has supported dozens of pre-seed through series B (and beyond) companies, as well as a startup and early-stage fund. In addition to Tomorrow Biotech, David is also the CSO of a cell based therapy company, focused on autoimmune disease, advisor for several biotech startups and frequent public speaker advocating for increased sustainability and greater Diversity, Equity and Inclusion (DEI) in the sciences.LinkedIn Profile: linkedin.com/in/davidkiewlichSupport Our SponsorsOur generous sponsors make our work possible, serving impact investors, social entrepreneurs, community builders and diverse founders.

My guest today is education leader and author Chris Balme, here to talk about his brand-new book Challenge Accepted: 50 Adventures to Make Middle School Awesome. In it, Chris gives middle schoolers themselves the tools to turn the ups and downs of adolescence into an adventure filled with meaning, growth, and connection. In our conversation, Chris shares why adventure and healthy risk-taking are so powerful during the middle school years, how parents can support their kids' self-efficacy and independence, and what this can look like for neurodivergent learners. We also talk about the parallel journeys parents and kids go through during this stage, and how leaning into growth together can make middle school not just manageable, but truly awesome.   About Chris Balme Chris Balme is an education leader, writer, and speaker. He's endlessly curious about how we can raise wise, loving, and capable adolescents. Chris has co-founded and led two innovative schools, written a best-selling book called Finding the Magic in Middle School, and regularly speaks to and trains teachers and parents around the world. His new book, Challenge Accepted: 50 Adventures to Make Middle School Awesome, gives the keys to middle schoolers themselves, to turn the wild ride of adolescence into an adventure full of meaning and connection. Chris currently serves as Co-Principal of Hakuba International School, and as director of Argonaut, an online advisory program for middle schoolers from around the world. He lives in the San Francisco Bay Area with his wife and three children. Things you'll learn from this episode   How middle schoolers are far more capable than they're often given credit for Why choice, authorship, and experiential learning are critical for building self-efficacy in adolescents How shifting from being the “boss” to being a guide helps parents support their child's growth Why healthy risks and self-directed challenges are especially important for neurodivergent kids How parents can act as mirrors for their children's experiences while growing themselves in the process Why creating supportive environments and offering practical adventures, like those in Challenge Accepted, helps middle schoolers thrive Resources mentioned Chris Balme's website Challenge Accepted: 50 Adventures to Make Middle School Awesome by Chris Balme Finding the Magic in Middle School: Tapping Into the Power and Potential of the Middle School Years by Chris Balme Chris's Substack Chris on Instagram The Self-Driven Child: The Science and Sense of Giving Your Kids More Control Over Their Lives by Dr. William Stixrud and Ned Johnson Learn more about your ad choices.

It turns out that the first American city to host a roster of local African bands was not New York, Miami or Chicago, but the San Francisco Bay Area of northern California. Hugh Masekela brought Hedzoleh Soundz from Ghana, and they settled in Santa Cruz. Nigerian maestros O.J. Ekemode and Joni Haastrup lived in Oakland in the 1970s. South African musicians from the touring stage show Ipi Tombi also settled in the Bay Area and started the band Zulu Spear. By the early ‘80s, the Bay Area “worldbeat” scene was in full swing, and along with it came Kotoja, Mapenzi, Big City, the Nigerian Allstars and more. Join us for a tour through the sounds and stories of the Bay Area's catalytic African music scene. Produced by Banning Eyre APWW #713

Classical Music continues to be a popular music form for all ages. San Francisco's KDFC which will soon be re-branded as Classical California along with KUSC in Los Angeles on October 27, 2025 is a key part of San Francisco's music scene.

This week we're exploring the often forgotten genre that is “Horror Movies for Children”. It was a short lived genre, and almost entirely killed by the advent of the PG-13 rating, but this week we dive into Gremlins (1984) and its wacky sequel, Gremlins 2: The New Batch (1990). Gremlins is certainly responsible for traumatizing a generation of 80's children whose parents thought it was a silly movie about a little furry animal. Enjoy our review of the Gremlins franchise!   Cinema Spectator is a movie podcast hosted by Isaac Ransom, Juzo Greenwood, and Cameron Tuttle.

Cisco is well known for its data, networking, security, and collaboration products. On today's episode, Cisco's president and chief product officer, Jeetu Patel, joins Sam for a discussion about artificial intelligence, a “megatrend” Jeetu sees as perhaps more significant than the development of the internet or the automobile because of its ability to build on past technological advances. Jeetu and Sam discuss how to manage AI and how to staff for it — Jeetu argues that replacing less experienced or younger workers with technology deprives organizations of key perspectives and new ideas, and instead advocates for developing reverse-mentoring programs inside organizations. Read the episode transcript here. Guest bio: Jeetu Patel, Cisco's president and chief product officer, combines product design and development expertise, operational rigor, and market understanding to create high-growth businesses. He is tasked with building world-class products to solve customers' problems, and connect and protect every aspect of their organization in the AI era. Previously a general manager at Cisco, he led the strategy and development of its Security and Collaboration businesses. Before Cisco, Patel was the chief product officer and chief strategy officer at cloud content management company Box. He's also held roles at EMC, including chief executive of its Syncplicity business unit, CMO for the Information Intelligence Group, and chief strategy officer. He currently serves on the board of JLL, a commercial real estate services company. Jeetu has a bachelor's degree in information decision sciences from the University of Illinois at Chicago, and lives in the San Francisco Bay Area.
