Ken and Anthony debate potential WNBA Cleveland team names ahead of the 10:30am reveal, leaning toward the Sirens over options like Waves, Crown, and a nostalgic push from Ken for the Bulldogs, while poking fun at how the branding teasers may have already given away the colors. Ken then doubles down on his stance that Todd Monken was right to praise Dillon Gabriel's effort in the open quarterback competition, insisting he won't cater a show to fans dead set on Shedeur Sanders regardless of performance. He and Anthony also review camp reps from Shedeur and Deshaun Watson, debating ball security and huddle communication, and gripe about the overuse of the word "dime" to describe unremarkable camp throws.

Ken and Anthony count down to the 10:30 reveal of Cleveland's new WNBA team name, questioning why every WNBA player and coach seems obligated to weigh in on political topics compared to other leagues, and defending Caitlin Clark's choice to stay focused on basketball rather than take public stances. They run through the finalist names again, including Breakers, Waves, Crown, and Riveters, before settling on the Sirens as the likely pick based on social teasers, with Ken diving into the mythological meaning of sirens as deadly lures on rocky coasts. The conversation turns to lingering frustration with the Guardians' branding, particularly the disliked logo, before Ken closes out the show insisting he's sleeping fine despite online criticism over his quarterback takes.

Lima and Ken run through their weekly likes and dislikes, praising Gavin Williams' strikeout streak (10-plus strikeouts with no more than one walk in five straight outings, tied for the second-longest such run since 1900) while lamenting David Fry's monthlong hitless drought. They also note Steven Kwan's rebound from a .209 slump to .258 and the Guardians holding steady despite a quiet trade deadline. Elsewhere, Lima approves of Donovan Mitchell's wedding to Coco Jones while Ken teases Wednesday's Cleveland WNBA team name announcement, with the Sirens seen as the frontrunner over options like the Crown and Founders. The segment closes on a lighter note about Motown legend Martha Reeves catching flak for a rough national anthem performance at age 85.

Kicking off a new musical venture has a lot of steps, and in this episode, we talk with Seattle/Tacoma artists Jody Ellen and Tara Chugh of the band The Sirens about some of the key first parts in the process. We also go into the different ways to grow this into a career, and how you balance the various aspects that can make it up. Jody and Tara share the story behind the band's recent single, “Reverberations” and the themes found within the notes. They talk about how they first met and what happened to kick off this collaboration. We also get a sneak peek at a soon-to-be-released single later this summer. “Reverberations” wraps up this interview, and we hope you check out their other releases. Want to know more?

What does Christopher Nolan's adaptation of ‘The Odyssey' have in common with Homer's poem? Classicist and actor Orlando Gibbs speaks to Alastair Benn about the strangeness of this ancient epic, which depicts a moral world far removed from Nolan's secular and post-Christian worldview, and discusses whether its popularity will lead to a renewed interest in the classical world.Image: Odysseus and the Sirens, represented on an ancient Greek vase.

We are wrapping up our 2026 Summer Blockbusters lineup with the grandest, most ambitious titan of the season: Nolan's massive, star-studded adaptation of The Odyssey. Shot entirely on new IMAX film cameras across global locations, this 172 minute mythic action epic is easily the biggest cinematic event of July.To fuel ourselves for a ten year journey home, Mackenzie is serving up a refreshing custom cocktail - The Lotus Flower - but it packs a punch strong enough to make you forget your own homeland.This week, we dive into how Nolan takes Homer's foundational, 3,000 year old poem and turns it into a high-stakes blockbuster. We discuss Matt Damon's fiercely physical performance as Odysseus, capturing a king who is a brilliant, wily strategist but entirely worn down by war and cosmic obstacles. We gush over the incredible ensemble cast, highlighting Anne Hathaway's fierce, resilient Penelope, Tom Holland's raw and restless turn as Telemachus, the scene-stealing presence of Zendaya as Athena, and Charlize Theron as Calypso. We also break down the film's spectacular, practical effects heavy encounters, from the terrifying scale of the Cyclops Polyphemus to the haunting sound design of the Sirens, and analyze how Hoyte van Hoytema's breathtaking cinematography makes ancient myth feel completely immediate and real.If you have your tickets booked for the nearest 70mm IMAX screen, or if you just want to hear us debate how Nolan managed to make a three hour ancient Greek poem feel like a relentless sci-fi thriller, this is the episode you need. We are blending our awe for a master filmmaker at the absolute peak of his craft with our usual casual banter, making this the true, definitive grand finale of our summer blockbuster coverage. The gods have spoken.This episode VIDEO is live on YouTube AND Spotify!Follow us on Instagram to get ep sneak peaks and find out what's coming up.

We've all seen sirens before, the mermaids of the deep who seduce with their beautiful voices. But she is so much more than that. She is a frequency, hypnotic, magnetic, alluring, and she is already living inside every single woman. I'm about to take you into the depths of her world, because once you feel this energy, you can never go back to performing femininity again. In this episode, I explore:

Cathy and Todd discuss the most recent summer blockbuster, The Odyssey, Christopher Nolan’s take on Homer’s epic and why a 2,700-year-old story about identity, home, and longing still hits just as hard today. From the Cyclops to the Sirens to Circe, they trace the myths and monsters and what those stories still reveal about who we are, and why the humanities matter to a thriving culture. It’s also a conversation about disguise and belonging, and why it’s so hard to come home when the choices of war change the world and leave shame behind.

What song do the Sirens sing to you?

In this episode of the Pre-Hospital Care Podcast, we're joined by Dr Jo Mildenhall to explore a critical and often under-discussed issue in pre-hospital medicine: burnout.Frontline ambulance staff experience some of the highest rates of sickness absence in the NHS, with stress, anxiety, and depression frequently cited as the cause. While much attention has traditionally focused on the impact of major traumatic incidents, Jo's research has consistently challenged this narrative, highlighting that the cumulative burden of daily hassles, operational pressures, organisational friction, resource constraints, moral distress, and relentless demand may be equally, if not more, damaging to psychological wellbeing.Drawing on her latest work on the social psychological dynamics within ambulance service culture, Jo examines how group identity, workplace relationships, and collective experiences of adversity shape the way ambulance clinicians perceive, process, and respond to stress and trauma. Her research suggests that the cultures we work within profoundly influence our emotional responses, coping behaviours, and willingness to seek support. We unpack the informal coping mechanisms paramedics often turn to, including cognitive strategies, gallows humour, and peer support, and examine what it is about these strategies that they find particularly helpful. With Jo's extensive experience in both clinical and educational settings, we reflect on how workplace culture, leadership, social identity, and peer relationships shape how paramedics manage stress, and what more can be done to protect psychological wellbeing on the front line. Ultimately, this episode asks an important question: if burnout is driven as much by the accumulation of everyday pressures as by extraordinary events, how do we build ambulance services that are not only operationally effective but also psychologically sustainable?Please find Jo's latest research here: https://www.researchgate.net/publication/272449530_Occupational_stress_paramedic_informal_coping_strategies_a_review_of_the_literature

Versión en audio del tercer vídeo de la serie «El viaje de Odiseo» del canal de YouTube.Cada vez que dejas el móvil en otra habitación para poder dormir estás repitiendo la maniobra más inteligente de la Odisea. Hace 2.800 años, Odiseo ordenó a sus propios remeros que lo ataran al mástil para poder oír el canto de las sirenas y sobrevivir para contarlo. Hoy la psiquiatría lo llama, con esas palabras exactas, el «contrato de Ulises».En este episodio: la flor de loto que borra el deseo de volver a casa (y por qué duele menos y por eso es peor), Circe y los hombres convertidos en cerdos —con la mente humana intacta dentro—, el moly que Hermes le da a Odiseo y que dos neurólogos identificaron en 1983 con una flor que hoy es un fármaco contra el alzhéimer, y el canto de las sirenas, que no promete placer: promete conocerte. Tres trampas, tres defensas —huir, entender, atarse por adelantado— y un poema que resulta ser el mapa más antiguo que existe de la adicción.Soy David García, cirujano vascular y divulgador de mitología en Mitos y Más.▶ Versión en vídeo, con las ilustraciones del episodio:https://youtu.be/djkDn8-Ghlc⏮ Capítulo anterior del viaje — el truco del Cíclope y el error que delata a todo troll anónimo:https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rqbRNaplMoM

The Odyssey (2026) Directed by: Christopher Nolan Written by: Christopher Nolan Starring: Matt Damon, Anne Hathaway, Tom Holland, Robert Pattinson, Charlize Theron, Samantha Morton, Zendaya, Lupita Nyong'o, Elliot Page, John Leguizamo, Benny Safdie, Jon Bernthal, Himesh Patel, Mia Goth, Bill Irwin, Travis Scott IMDB: [IMDB LINK] Episode Summary In this episode of Mindframes, Michael and Dave discuss The Odyssey (2026), Christopher Nolan's three-hour adaptation of Homer — a $250 million epic and the first narrative feature shot entirely on IMAX 70mm. The discussion covers Nolan as an auteur and whether the "never made a bad movie" claim holds up, the practical-effects approach to the Cyclops and Circe, the deliberately cold Northern palette imposed on the Mediterranean, Ludwig Göransson's score, and an ensemble so large the hosts concede they can't get to everyone. After the ratings, the spoiler section turns to the film's central choice: the Olympian gods have been removed while the monsters remain, and what that does to Odysseus' moral agency. Comparisons range across Nolan's own filmography, Troy, The Northman, and the sword-and-sandal epics of the 1950s and '60s. Reviews Michael: 4.5 / 5 — came out thinking four, and it has only grown in his esteem since. Praises the baseline of visual and musical quality, Damon working better as a lead than expected, and a supporting cast that carries every stop on the journey. Docks it for a cast so crowded it distracts, and for an ending too in love with its own moralism. Dave: 4.5 / 5 — would watch it again in a heartbeat. Calls it a film that grabs hold of empire, heroism, reverence, and humility all at once, and rates the separation of gods from monsters as pitch perfect. His one dent in the fender: the film plays a little episodic, a series of very large encounters rather than a single build. Thematic Discussion The Odyssey removes the Olympians but keeps the monsters. Circe, the Sirens, and the Cyclops are all simply part of the natural world here; it's Athena and Zeus who stay shadowy and inferred. Michael's reading is that this absence exists to hand moral agency back to Odysseus — if the gods were visibly steering, his guilt over the Trojan Horse wouldn't be his to carry. That guilt is framed through xenia, the Greek code of hospitality. Odysseus offered a gift that turned out to be murder, and comes to believe that breaking that norm is what set his civilization's collapse in motion. The hosts draw the parallel to the erosion of political and social norms in contemporary America, and to the film's closing turn — the Bronze Age is ending because of the Sea Peoples, and the Greeks realize they are the Sea Peoples. The episode's central disagreement is over Athena. Dave reads her as constructed: she wears the face of a priestess Odysseus watched his own men murder in her temple, and the film is showing how humans build gods out of guilt and the sense that something is sacred. Michael pushes back that the film sustains a genuine ambiguity — the idea that gods appear in human form is planted repeatedly, and the priestess is decapitated at the exact moment Athena's statue is, which leaves open that Odysseus may believe they killed a god. He points to the same ambiguity in the Cyclops' cry to Poseidon, which some of the crew claim to hear and neither Odysseus nor the audience does. Neither host resolves it, and both prefer it that way. Michael's position is that the ambiguity is the answer rather than the absence of one — something underpins their world that they don't fully see and are damaging anyway, whether that's Zeus and Poseidon or simply decency and the value of human life. Dave, arriving from a position of religious faith, says he likes that Odysseus has to live in the same uncertain world the rest of us do. The structural evidence they land on: Homer ends with a deus ex machina, Athena descending to stop the cycle of revenge. Nolan cuts it. Nobody intervenes, so Odysseus abdicates, gives the throne to Telemachus, and sails west with Penelope — a change that hands the ending's moral weight entirely to the man.

SPOILER ALERT Christopher Nolan made The Odyssey, and somehow the loudest movie of the year is about a guy who just wants to go home. This week on Thumb War, we're joined by Dan to break down Nolan's massive Greek mythology epic: Matt Damon as Odysseus, Tom Holland as Telemachus, Anne Hathaway as Penelope, Robert Pattinson, Jon Bernthal, Benny Safdie, Samantha Morton, Elliot Page, Charlize Theron, gods, monsters, boats, gongs, suitors, and one dog scene that nearly destroyed us. We talk about the IMAX spectacle, the punishing Dolby sound mix, the score, the Cyclops, the Sirens, Calypso, Athena, the suitor massacre, Tom Holland's eternal Spider-Man baby face, Matt Damon's “smart guy” energy, and whether this is actually top-three Nolan. Jason went in dreading The Odyssey. Rachel saw it twice and would apparently go again. Dan elevated the show, as usual. Full spoiler review is up now.

As the film adaptation of the Odyssey bursts onto screens around the world this week, here at Unexpected Elements we're undertaking our own epic journey through science – all inspired by the ancient Greek epic.First, we discover the tiny virus that's using its own Trojan Horse to sneak into cells it wouldn't usually be able to infect. Then, we hear about the daring 8000km voyage undertaken by iguanas 30 million years ago.Next, we're joined by Professor Steve Simpson from the University of Bristol in the UK. He tells us how he's been using sounds to lure fish back to coral reefs around the world – much like how the Sirens in the Odyssey used their enticing songs to lure sailors to shore. Except in Steve's work, rather than being lured to their deaths, the fish are helping corals recover from the devastating effects of climate change.Also, the fake medicine that still makes you feel better and why some smells might make you sleepy.All that, plus many more Unexpected Elements.Presenter: Marnie Chesterton, with Emmanuel Samani and Chhavi Sachdev Producers: Sophie Ormiston, with Dan Welsh, Alice McKee and Nada Soufi

In this episode of Revelations Podcast, Reagan Kramer welcomes back Amy Roper from Eyes on the Right for an in-depth discussion about the biblical significance of the sea, the "deep," and what Scripture reveals about the spiritual realm often referred to as the Marine Kingdom. Beginning in Genesis, Amy traces the theme of the waters throughout the Bible, exploring passages about the abyss (tehom), Sheol, Leviathan, Dagon, and Johah. Together, they examine how ancient cultures consistently worshiped water deities, how these themes appear throughout history and mythology, and why understanding the biblical worldview helps Christians discern spiritual deception without falling into fear. The conversation emphasizes that many biblical stories—including Jonah, Jesus calming the sea, and the miracles surrounding water—demonstrate Christ's complete authority over all creation and every spiritual power. The discussion also explores how marine symbolism appears in modern culture through entertainment, mythology, corporate imagery, financial language, and current conversations surrounding unexplained underwater phenomena.  Reagan and Amy encourage listeners to search the Scriptures for themselves, test everything through the Holy Spirit, and develop biblical discernment.  The key takeaway is that believers are engaged in a spiritual battle, but they do not need to fear the unknown because Jesus Christ reigns over every realm—land, sea, and sky. His authority is absolute, His victory is complete, and Christians can confidently walk in wisdom, discernment, and the power He has given them.

Tonight on Thursday Thrills, we head into the woods for Siren Head, the internet urban legend that turns emergency sirens, storm warnings, distorted broadcasts, and lonely rural roads into pure nightmare fuel. Created by horror artist Trevor Henderson in 2018, Siren Head became a modern folklore icon through TikTok, YouTube shorts, indie horror games, fan stories, and creepypasta-style sightings.This show keeps the tone fun, spooky, and campfire-ready as we explore why a forty-foot siren-headed monster feels so strangely believable, how the legend spread online, why it connects to analog horror and emergency broadcast fears, and why the creature works best when it is half-glimpsed at the edge of a dark field.Is the siren warning you... or calling you closer?

Attention is working in really unusual ways this election cycle. Graham Platner, a political unknown a year ago, ended up dominating his Senate primary against Maine's sitting governor – even as his campaign was rocked by a series of scandals. James Talarico also seemed to come out of nowhere to become the Democratic nominee for Senate in Texas. Jon Ossoff has ginned up a ton of excitement as a potential 2028 presidential contender, in part because of his viral videos. Meanwhile, the former reality TV personality Spencer Pratt became a political star on X during his bid to become mayor of Los Angeles and yet failed to make the runoff. All of this has a lot of lessons for how attention is working right now in American politics. So I wanted to have on my favorite person to talk to on this topic.
