Welcome to episode 17 Honeybee by Craig Silvey. The book was inspired by a real situation witnessed by the author’s brother and sister-in-law and in this episode, we discuss the author’s endeavour to portray his characters’ anguish and vulnerability in a way that is both sensitive and heartwarming. We are delighted to be bringing you this episode in Trans Awareness week and hope that you loved the book as much as we did. In our discussion, we refer to Sam as he/him. This is incorrect and we apologise for our mistake. Since Sam identifies as female, it is considered more respectful to use she/her. The following organisations are a fabulous source of education and support: @minus18youth @transendaus2012 @twenty10glcs @reachout_aus #honeybee @craigsilvey #allenandunwin #bookstagram Just a content warning: issues of self-harm and suicide may arise during this discussion.

This week, Sam and a very congested Connor talk about Judo. While we do chat about the history and contextual origins of the practice, we also talk about Judo as a martial art and, as you might expect, its ethical and intellectual dimensions. Since Sam does Ju-Jitsu, we try and enquire as to how physical craft can cultivate moral virtues and help shape character; tackling both logistical problems and big blokes in dressing gowns within the same art.

Welcome back to another episode of Dive Cuts with Sam Snelling and Matthew Harris. Since Sam and Matt last met, Matt was in the smokey mountains and it appears the entire recruiting board happened during his absence because of course! They dive into who has agreed to come and play at Mizzou, their strengths and weaknesses, and what else might be out there for Mizzou in order to round out the roster. The talent coming is will most certainly be a topic of conversation as we continue the Cuonzo Martin tenure at Mizzou. Could this be a make or break time? Sam also feels confident there will be college basketball this year but is still not so sure about football. Let's Dive in.

Topics from Glozell and her sentient Octopus to Frank Sinatra to Blacksmiths to Flexibility! Sam stutters as he tries to not be underestimated and Kelsey keeps him in check! So buckle in for a wild podcast and conversations about ACTUAL tea!! ***DISCLAIMER: Sam insisted we use his microphones, which worked really well except he was too close to his and Kelsey and I were too far away from ours so Sam is a little loud.

In this episode of the Pacey Performance Podcast, I am speaking to Professor of Sports Analytics at Victoria University, Sam Robertson. This is Sam's second time on the podcast but this episode was sparked by a thread on Twitter which Sam started around injury prediction. This thread went viral among the sports science community so it seemed the perfect time to get Sam on and expand on the 14 tweet explanation. Since Sam's last appearance on the podcast, a few things have changed but what hasn't changed is Sam's ability to communicate very complex topics in a very simple and digestible way. Hope you enjoy this episode with Sam Robertson. In this episode we discussed... Who is Sam Robertson (background, education and current role) True positives and false positives Risk being a strategy Pulling players out of sessions based on data Determining the performance of a model Implementing injury prediction models in practice Data quality Data volume Relationships between variables and injury Machine learning methods Sam can be found on Twitter @Robertson_SJ This episode of the Pacey Performance Podcast is sponsored by Hawkin Dynamics, the team behind the worlds only wireless force plate system.

On this episode I am joined by Sam Panico to discuss David Robert Mitchell's ambitious (yet messy) sunscorched-Neo-Noir-comedy-thriller UNDER THE SILVER LAKE. Andrew Garfield plays Sam our hapless protagonist who is pulled into a labyrinthine mystery after a brief encounter with his neighbor Sarah (Riley Keough) and her sudden disappearance. Sam is bombarded by cryptic codes, conspiracy theories, secret societies, subliminal messages, underground zines, backward masking, LA hipsters, and an incoherent parrot as he searches for a truth that may be better left uncovered. Much like the movie itself this episode dips and dives into many different points of reference which ends up being a whole lot of fun. Since Sam and I discussed a lot of other stuff at the beginning and end of the recording I will be putting that out as a separate bonus episode shortly.

Since Sam is out with back stuff...here is how his back stuff ended up last time(time number three). Thanks for listening.
Special Thanks To Our VIP Sponsors! Topics: -Jerry has some clients with MacPractice and he has some concerns with their recommendations for Dolly Drive. Joe chimes in on his experiences. -Since Sam is relatively new to syncing Desktop & Documents to iCloud, he was looking for a way to stop specific subfolders from syncing to iCloud. He found that adding the suffix of .nosync to a folder would remove it from iCloud. -On the heels of naming conventions discussions, Jerry has a client that named folders with all the special characters that tend to wreak havoc on an OS. He got the old line “it wasn’t a problem before” from the client. -Sam’s client had what they thought was an issue with a UniFi mesh device. The answer was a lot more simple than expected. -Whenever a client messes with DNS, it’s a recipe for disaster. And Jerry’s client was no exception. -A need from one of Jerry’s friends turns into the discovery of a line of products from Ten One Design. He ends up getting his friend the Blockhead, which turns the Apple power brick sideways to the socket. Check them out for a variety of other ingenious products like the Stella or Wifi Porter. -Listeners of Command Control Power can get a very generous 20% off their order by using the code “Command” at checkout. -It’s the simple things. Joe shares a feature of the Amazon Prime app on iOS that just makes sense and he wonders why other video streaming apps don’t do this. -Jerry recommends troypoint.com for use with an Amazon Fire Stick -Joe has a new segment/corner/pop quiz called “Apple should have told us”. His story starts with a local iPhone encrypted backup with a lost backup password. Apple does have a knowledgeable article on this topic: https://support.apple.com/en-us/HT205220#help -His wish for an RSS feed leads him to a lot of dead ends: apple.com/support/rss/intl/body.html, rss.support.apple.com, support.apple.com/rss, and just for fun: www.apple.com/support/home/index.html -Thanks to Tim Nyberg of The Mac Guys for mentioning a tax break for the tax year 2018 that may apply to your business: https://www.mileiq.com/blog/pass-through-tax-deduction/ -On a fun note, Jerry shares a funny ad for the Super Bowl from Stella Artois: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IX8TMYRk6_w
Charles "Sam" Faddis is a former CIA operations officer and national security commentator with extensive experience on the ground in the Near East and South Asia. He's also one of the guys you'll see on the intelligence edition of Inside the Team Room which we're currently rolling out in segments on The Spec Ops Channel. Since Sam has written for the site, but hasn't been on the podcast, I figured no better time than now to have him on. On this episode we get into some of the recent diplomatic relations happening with the U.S. and hostile nations. Sam's analysis of President Trump's strategies in dealing with Russia and North Korea are very insightful. It's also interesting hearing Sam discuss these topics with the background he has, and how he certainly doesn't echo a lot of the talking heads and so-called "experts" you'll see on TV. Sam is also starting work on a book about where the U.S. stands in a post-9/11 world in preventing homeland terrorism. We get into that topic, and you'll hear why he's very cynical about our current homeland security strategies. Sam has both authored and co-authored several books including "Beyond Repair: The Decline and Fall of the CIA," and his next book which is finished and will be out soon deals with the invasion of Iraq. Visit him at SamFaddis.com and follow him on Twitter @RealSamFaddis, let him know how you liked his interview. In addition, we hope you check him out along with some other great SOFREP personalities on the Inside the Team Room available on The Spec Ops Channel. If you're not already a member, we encourage you to become one. It's up now, and if you're enjoying the series, let us know. I also check your emails being sent to sofrep.radio@sofrep.com on this episode; and as always, follow us on Instagram and Twitter @SOFREPRadio.
