Podcasts about Skype

Send us a textDesde 2019 vivo para crear valor a mi audiencia: grabando Cracks Podcast, recortando clips, documentando procesos y compartiendo herramientas para emprendedores hispanos. Hoy miro atrás con felicidad, pero el camino ha sido más complejo de lo que parece. Identifico al menos 3 etapas en mi viaje en redes: bajones, creación de empresa y expansión. En este episodio te cuento qué aprendí en cada una.De “raro” a constante: empecé en 2019 con audio por Skype y cero edición; publiqué cada semana sin fallar y me abracé al hábito.Catarsis pública: en mis inicios compartí reflexiones y videos cortos que daban “cringe”, pero me ayudaron a redefinirme y conectar.Profesionalización: en 2021 estructuré distribución multiplataforma (YouTube, IG, TikTok, FB, LinkedIn + email diario) y escalé con IA para títulos y clips.Reglas de reputación: no persigo el clip destructivo; privilegio conversaciones largas y seguras que me dan longevidad sobre viralidad fugaz.Monetización con propósito: primero comunidad y contenido; luego patrocinios, conferencias y programas (Cracks Business School, método de marca personal).Si te sirvió comparte este episodio. Y cuéntame en comentarios: ¿en qué etapa vas tú?

I chat with Craig Hewitt , founder of Castos. We talk about his journey from running a podcast editing agency to building a SaaS hosting platform. We cover the challenges of bootstrapping, raising funds, and going international. Craig shares how he uses distribution channels, how AI affects small teams, and what it's like to scale in a niche market. We end with advice for indie founders on picking business models, taking risks, and keeping up with tech changes.My twitter: https://x.com/wbetiagoAbout Craig HewittTwitter: https://x.com/TheCraigHewittPodcast: https://roguestartups.com/Timestamps by PodsqueezeGreg's Background and Starting Podcast Motor (00:01:02)Getting First Clients and Sales Approach (00:06:29)US vs. Europe: Customer Acquisition Differences (00:08:25)Localization and Multi-Currency Pricing (00:13:18)Transition from Agency to SaaS: Castus (00:16:30)Distribution Channels and Product Positioning (00:19:06)Impact of AI on Team and Product Development (00:25:28)Bootstrapping vs. Raising Money: Tiny Seed Experience (00:30:25)Agency vs. SaaS: Which to Start First?

Post Game Show: Detroit Lions vs. Chicago Bears – Game 2 Reactions The Detroit Lions vs. Chicago Bears post game show for the Detroit Lions Podcast is live as we break down every angle of this huge NFL Game 2 matchup. The Lions entered Week 2 looking to rebound after a tough opening loss, while the Bears brought plenty of intrigue with new head coach Ben Johnson — formerly the Lions' offensive coordinator — now leading the rival sideline. In this episode, we'll dive deep into the storylines that defined Detroit Lions vs. Chicago Bears: How did Jared Goff perform against a defense that knows his tendencies? Did Amon-Ra St. Brown and Jameson Williams make the explosive plays Detroit needed? What about the offensive line — did Taylor Decker return to stabilize the trenches, or did the Lions have to rely on Giovanni Manu to protect the blindside? Did The Detroit Lions Bring Back The Spark From 2024? On the other side of the ball, we'll discuss whether Detroit's defense rose to the challenge against Caleb Williams and Chicago's retooled offense. Did Aidan Hutchinson and the pass rush get home? How did the secondary respond against a Bears unit missing Kyler Gordon but welcoming back Jaylon Johnson? This post game show isn't just about our analysis. We'll also take live fan calls to hear your reaction to every turning point, from red zone struggles to coaching decisions. Did Dan Campbell's Lions show resilience in Game 2, or did Ben Johnson's Bears deliver an early divisional statement? Join us for full NFL Week 2 reaction as we unpack what this means for the Lions' season ahead. Whether it's optimism, concern, or pure passion, your voice makes this conversation complete.

00:00:00 – Back to Shenanigans Mike and Cratchit open the Saturday show with coffee, jokes about writing a “book of forwards,” and a quick nod to the previous episode's deep-dive guest before settling in for clips, headlines, and weird news. 00:10:00 – Alex Jones Iso-palooza A rapid-fire romp through Alex Jones clips becomes a running gag—perfect ringtones and “quotes for the book”—setting a chaotic, comedic tone before the heavier stuff. 00:20:00 – The “Hitler Score” Thought Experiment Mike proposes a tongue-in-cheek metric to rate politicians' “Hitler percentage,” using it to critique lazy political labeling while cautioning that early details about the Charlie Kirk shooting are murky and easily weaponized. 00:30:00 – Evidence, Drones, and Media Spin They scrutinize the Kirk shooting footage—drones, CCTV, ballistics, missing round—arguing how low-quality clips invite cherry-picking. Bill Maher's “calm down” monologue gets a brief listen as they urge skepticism across the board. 00:40:00 – Atlantic Piece & Temperature Check Reacting to The Atlantic's “turning point” framing, they highlight calls for nonviolence from some allies, contrast it with heated rhetoric on both sides, and note how quickly narratives harden in the aftermath. 00:50:00 – Peter Thiel & The Antichrist (Techno-Theology Hour) A wild segment on Peter Thiel's private lecture series about the Antichrist spirals into “beast system” speculation—surveillance tech, Palantir, and Revelation vibes—equal parts curiosity, side-eye, and satire. 01:00:00 – Open Lines & Spicier Speculation Call-ins amplify theories around motives, confessions, who benefits, even Mossad rumors. The crew reminds listeners that lots of claims are unverified, with courts and discovery likely far off. 01:10:00 – Shooter Background & Timeline Holes They recap reported bio details, plane-tracking videos, and the still-missing bullet—asking how fast radicalization happens and whether early reporting is mixing facts with filler. 01:20:00 – Paranormal Real Estate Break: The Conjuring House “Money Pit 2: Amityville Edition?” The infamous Rhode Island farmhouse goes back on the block; jokes fly about museum-ifying it, while the Warrens' grandson calling the franchise “pure fantasy” gets a nod. 01:30:00 – FOI-Gate on the Loo (Australia) Bureaucrats vs. one notorious dumper: an office switches to 2-ply to stop chronic clogs, sparking toilet-timer jokes and a segue to proposals limiting freedom-of-information requests. Peak OBDM bathroom policy analysis. 01:40:00 – Space Oddity: 3I Atlas Turns Green The interstellar (or cometary?) object shifts color with cyanide off-gassing; the gang wonders aloud about alien probes, anti-tails, and what October observations might reveal. 01:50:00 – Smart Laundry Hack (Netherlands) Student washers get “jailbroken” for free loads; management locks the room; Mike and Cratchit dunk on default passwords and IoT negligence while praising old-school analog backups. 02:00:00 – Emotional Support Alligator & Sign-Off An ESA gator is banned from Walmart (shock!), and the show winds down with community plugs (Patreon, Discord) and a tease of digging up OBDM episode “zero.”   Copyright Disclaimer Under Section 107 of the Copyright Act 1976, allowance is made for "fair use" for purposes such as criticism, comment, news reporting, teaching, scholarship, and research ▀▄▀▄▀ CONTACT LINKS ▀▄▀▄▀ ► Phone: 614-388-9109 ► Skype: ourbigdumbmouth ► Website: http://obdmpod.com ► Twitch: https://www.twitch.tv/obdmpod ► Full Videos at Odysee: https://odysee.com/@obdm:0 ► Twitter: https://twitter.com/obdmpod ► Instagram: obdmpod ► Email: ourbigdumbmouth at gmail ► RSS: http://ourbigdumbmouth.libsyn.com/rss ► iTunes: https://itunes.apple.com/us/podcast/our-big-dumb-mouth/id261189509?mt=2  

Bisch & Brown vs the Chicago Bears Russ Brown and Scott Bischoff are back this week, and they're looking at what the national media are calling the Ben Johnson revenge game vs. the Detroit Lions. I seem to remember the Lions handing the offense to a no-name tight ends coach and putting an incredible amount of faith and trust in him while enabling his rapid career advancement through the coaching ranks, but what do I know, right? Will Caleb Williams give the ball to Kerby Joseph? How many times? Will Caleb Williams give the ball to Brian Branch? Will it be more or fewer times than he gives it to Kerby Joseph? Also, can the Detroit Lions offensive line recover in time for this week's matchup against the Bears' D-line? The boys have some opinions.

The discussion covers the iPhone 17 lineup, including the Pro and Pro Max models powered by the A19 Pro chip, upgraded camera systems, and improved thermal cooling. Panelists debate upgrade cycles, storage needs, and even whether “pumpkin spice” (aka orange) should count as a phone color. We also break down the debut of the iPhone Air, Apple's thinnest iPhone yet, with its titanium build, new C1X modem, and unique design choices (including that hump). Is it just a super-thin marvel—or half of a future foldable iPhone? Opinions differ! Next up, the AirPods Pro 3 bring stronger noise cancellation, a heart rate sensor, and game-changing live translation features. The crew weighs whether these are must-have upgrades or evolutionary refinements. Finally, the Apple Watch Series 11 and Ultra 3 take center stage, with blood pressure monitoring, sleep score features, and battery improvements sparking debate about health tracking and who benefits most from the new models. Throughout the episode, the panel reflects on how Apple's hardware has entered an iterative phase—solid and polished, but less revolutionary. Still, with new colors, health sensors, and smarter features, there's plenty to discuss, speculate, and laugh about in this jam-packed post-event recap .

https://grandtheftworld.com/ 00:00:00 – Meeting Richard Grove Warm intro with Richard Grove: Pittsburgh roots, shoes and job-site footwear, then straight into Grove's history with John Taylor Gatto and how Gatto's ideas on schooling-as-indoctrination reshaped his worldview. Personal stories about helping Gatto after his stroke and preserving his work. 00:10:00 – Gatto's Legacy & Foundation Power Recap of Gatto resigning as NY Teacher of the Year; the Reese Committee, Norman Dodd, and how Carnegie/Rockefeller/Ford foundations nudged policy and education. Language, printing press, and information control as the real levers of power. 00:20:00 – Multi-Generational Networks Banks and industrialists funding both sides of conflicts; the supra-political layer above parties and nations. Grove demos his research “Brain” map and traces threads through RAND, CFR, common core authors, Rhodes scholars, and Anglo-American planning. 00:30:00 – Wilson's Warning & Debunking Debunkers Woodrow Wilson's “shadow power” passage and how quotes get straw-manned online. How “fact-checks” poison the well by refuting claims no one actually made—keeping the real discussion off-limits. 00:40:00 – Money, Markets, and the Trivium Goldbacks and parallel money at liberty festivals; why cartelized finance isn't “capitalism.” Education deliberately omits the Trivium (grammar → logic → rhetoric), creating literate but uncritical citizens. Reframing learning as input/process/output. 00:50:00 – Empire by Other Means UK DCDC future-war documents; the British Empire's evolution into a covert commonwealth model using U.S. power. Cecil Rhodes's plan to pull America back into the imperial fold via a cadre—seed of the Rhodes Scholarships. 01:00:00 – The Will of Rhodes Grove details Rhodes's will, the Rothschild link, and how Rhodes Scholars (Clinton, Talbott, etc.) shape U.S. institutions. “From cowboys to gentlemen”: reforming American attitudes to match British elite preferences. 01:10:00 – Occult, Culture, and Soft Power Fabian socialists, spiritualist circles, and mystery-school currents around British politics; cultural capture from lawns to the British Invasion. Occult motifs and “initiated” knowledge as social glue for elites. 01:20:00 – Becoming a Whistleblower Grove's Sarbanes–Oxley compliance work; discovering audit-trail backdoors that let firms erase records; pushback, retaliation, and years of litigation. How lived experience hardened his stance against institutional corruption. 01:30:00 – 9/11 Anomalies Deep Dive Pentagon inconsistencies, missing (orange) black boxes, and security-cam gaps; “Pilots for 9/11 Truth” (Rob Balsamo) analyses; the “dancing Israelis” arrest and quiet deportations. Media scripting vs. physics and flight-path questions; drills/foreknowledge discussions and why these details still matter. 01:40:00 – Epstein, Pizzagate & Media Lines They hash through the Epstein network and culture's selective outrage: UK's Savile cover-ups vs. U.S. media skittishness; social feed reactions; speculation about Trump's possible informant role; Clinton associations. The broader theme: blackmail, intelligence services, and why cases like these get memory-holed. 01:50:00 – Assange, Censorship & Platforms Assange's background and the years in the Ecuadorian embassy; intelligence community pressure and narrative-management. Broader talk on censorship, de-platforming, alt-video (e.g., Odysee), and keeping shows listener-supported. Tease for live podcasting and how/why independent media survives. 02:00:00 – Skills, Autonomy & Sign-Off Grove's path from 2006 podcasting to building communities and courses (AUTONOMY): teaching durable skills, critical thinking, and entrepreneurial value creation. Invitation to listeners: learn the method, find your people, make a meaningful living. Thanks and goodbyes.

Detroit Lions Still Looking to Launch | Detroit Lions Podcast The Detroit Lions opened their 2025 NFL season with a tough loss on the road to the Green Bay Packers at Lambeau Field. In our latest episode, Detroit Lions Still Looking To Launch, we break down what went wrong in Week 1 and what needs to change as the Lions prepare for a pivotal Week 2 matchup at home against the Chicago Bears—now led by Ben Johnson, Detroit's former offensive coordinator. Packers Postmortem: Slow Start, Missed Chances The Packers game offered an uncomfortable reminder that the margin for execution in the NFL is razor-thin. Jared Goff and the Lions offense moved the ball but stalled in critical spots. Protection breakdowns and untimely penalties blunted drives, leaving points on the field. Defensively, Detroit allowed Jordan Love and the Green Bay Packers to exploit coverage mismatches and extend plays on third down. On the podcast, we ask tough questions: was this simply Week 1 rust, or do the Lions have deeper issues with discipline and situational football? The discussion highlighted the need for sharper red-zone execution, better balance between Jahmyr Gibbs and David Montgomery in the run game, and more consistent pass rush to relieve pressure on the secondary. Bears Week: Ben Johnson Returns to Ford Field Looking ahead, all eyes are on Ben Johnson's return to Detroit. After architecting the Lions' explosive offense last year, Johnson now brings his creativity to the Chicago Bears as head coach. That familiarity cuts both ways—Detroit knows his tendencies, but Johnson also knows Goff's strengths and weaknesses. In the show, we explore how Dan Campbell and Aaron Glenn can counter Johnson's schemes. Will the Lions lean on tempo and power formations to dictate terms? Can Detroit's defense stay disciplined against Justin Fields' replacement-led attack, featuring heavy RPO and play-action wrinkles Johnson loves to dial up? Fans are eager to see how Amon-Ra St. Brown, Sam LaPorta, and Jameson Williams can exploit Chicago's young secondary in a must-win divisional matchup. Listener Reactions and Season Outlook Our live chat zeroed in on one theme: urgency. A slow start cost Detroit in Green Bay, and with the NFL spotlight growing brighter, the Lions can't afford to stumble again at home. Week 2 against Chicago offers a chance to reset momentum, reclaim toughness in the trenches, and prove the Lions remain contenders in the NFC North. Listen to the full episode on YouTube and Spotify for in-depth NFL analysis and fan reaction as the Detroit Lions look to bounce back against the Bears and finally launch their 2025 campaign. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xqSTxbiTxRg Let us know what you think about the show by commenting in the podcast thread in the subreddit, or by leaving us a voice mail message via Skype at: Detroit Lions Podcast  Your input will help make the show better, and if you leave us a message on Skype, you just might be featured in an upcoming podcast!

The Detroit Lions opened their 2025 NFL season with a disappointing Week 1 loss to the Green Bay Packers at Lambeau Field. As fans sift through the emotions of frustration and anger, the focus turns to whether this was simply bad execution in a tough road environment—or something more systemic. Head coach Dan Campbell insists the problems are fixable. Missed assignments can be corrected, mental errors addressed, and coaching issues cleaned up. Still, the offensive game plan came under immediate scrutiny. Offensive coordinator John Morton is now facing questions after a debut that featured receivers bunched in ineffective route trees, linemen blocking ghosts, and a running attack that stalled repeatedly against light defensive fronts. The Lions offense managed only one touchdown while Jared Goff spent much of the afternoon checking down under pressure. Some fans had flashbacks to Joey Harrington as the short throws piled up, but a closer look shows Goff played smart football given Green Bay's deep two-safety shell. He avoided forcing throws, limited turnovers, and worked within a system that needs better support up front. Leadership, Collaboration, and the Road Ahead Beyond X's and O's, the Lions face an internal test of leadership. Reports suggest Goff had influence on personnel decisions—most notably the move to start veteran Graham Glasgow at center over rookie Tate Ratledge. While Glasgow is experienced, the protection issues were glaring. If quarterback preference factored too heavily into that decision, the Lions must recalibrate who drives the process. Dan Campbell has built his tenure on grit, collaboration, and empowering players. But there comes a time when the coach has to reset priorities and demand execution. Week 1 exposed communication breakdowns and schematic flaws that must be resolved immediately. The good news? It's still early. Sixteen NFL teams sit at 0-1 today. Campbell's Lions have historically started slow, but the season is long. Beat the Chicago Bears this Sunday at Ford Field and the narrative shifts. The roster remains stacked—Amon-Ra St. Brown, Jameson Williams, Aidan Hutchinson, and others didn't suddenly forget how to play football. The bad news? The schedule ahead is brutal. Road trips to Cincinnati, Kansas City, and Baltimore loom large. Fixes must come fast, or the Lions risk sliding into a hole that talent alone can't climb out of. For now, Detroit Lions fans can breathe, regroup, and remember: it's just Week 1. But as this post game reaction podcast reminds us, the problems on display in Green Bay demand urgency, not excuses. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WYFMuXh65-g Let us know what you think about the show by commenting in the podcast thread in the subreddit, or by leaving us a voice mail message via Skype at: Detroit Lions Podcast  Your input will help make the show better, and if you leave us a message on Skype, you just might be featured in an upcoming podcast!

At EUVC Summit 2025, few sessions packed as much history, humility, and hard-earned wisdom as the conversation with Bernard Dallé and Thomas Kristensen.What began as a one-man show in the early '90s—when venture in Europe was barely a concept—has become one of the most respected platforms in the global industry.“I joined Index before it even existed as a venture firm. It was still Index Securities.”This was more than a talk. It was a journey through time, with insights for every fund manager—new or seasoned—building for the long haul.Before Skype, before unicorns, before European VC had a flag to wave, it was about scraping together conviction and capital.Index Fund I: $17 millionRaised in 1999, following years of groundwork and trialNo real ecosystem, no pattern recognition, and no “easy” capital“You can't raise without a track record. So we used Fund I to create it.”And then came the landmark deal: Skype's acquisition by eBay for $3–4 billion. That one outcome shifted the trajectory of Index—and of European venture as a whole.“After Skype, we could raise with more ease. It gave us credibility.”One of the standout themes was Index's philosophy around team building:“The hires that worked? People we knew—or people who joined slightly below partner level and grew into the role.”In contrast, hiring senior talent cold—especially across geographies—proved far harder. Culture cohesion was key, and misalignment at the top often broke the system.The advice was clear:Grow talent internally when you canOnly bring in outsiders when they're “known entities”Avoid parachuting in partners who haven't lived the firm's values“At some point, having someone senior focused purely on operations becomes essential.”This wasn't about back office—it was about survival.Today's LP demands include:ESG complianceFund reportingExit prepOngoing fundraisingPortfolio support“You need to start thinking about this 10 years in advance.”“It takes 15 years to become somewhat successful in this business. And once you get there—you need to start thinking about who'll take over.”Venture isn't just about spotting founders. It's about building the kind of firm that can back them for decades to come.Bernard and Thomas left the stage with no fluff—just a quiet reminder:Build slowly. Hire wisely. Think in generations.And good luck to all of us doing the same.The Early Days: A Market Without MomentumScaling a Firm: Culture First, Titles LaterOps Matter More Than You ThinkThe Final Lesson: Play the Long Game

00:00:00 – Storms, Sleep & Studio Power Mike opens with an eight-hour power outage recap, generator logistics, and a running gag about terrible sleep (“maybe aliens”), setting a punchy, sleep-deprived mood. 00:10:00 – Skinwalker Ranch: The “Bubble” Returns Season recap kicks off: the ranch's 200-meter-wide “bubble” over the Triangle scrambles GPS, knocks out electronics, and throws radiation spikes; lidar suggests a defined volume. 00:20:00 – Eyes in the Sky: A Daily Satellite Pass The team partners with a SpaceX integrator to loft a dedicated smallsat that will pass the ranch daily, augmenting drones, rockets, and choppers in the hunt for energy anomalies and UAPs. 00:30:00 – Mesa Mystery: 1960s Dig, Ceramics & Kecksburg A weird manufactured “ceramic” found ~200 feet inside the mesa behaves like a superconductor; a 1964 coin hints the site was dug decades ago. Mike ties it to the 1965 Kecksburg “acorn” and a wider 60s test program. 00:40:00 – Operation… Brain Fog? Detour into historic U.S. Army aerosol tests (San Francisco, St. Louis rooftops), used to argue military secrecy isn't unprecedented; show phones open; YouTube recording hiccups noted. 00:50:00 – Portals, GPS Glitches & Remote Viewers Three big frameworks for Skinwalker: interdimensional/“portal,” trickster intelligence, and covert tech. Reported GPS oddities, “gateways under the mesa,” and remote viewers' sketches feed the theories. 01:00:00 – The Drone That Mutilates Cattle Remote-viewing thread lands on a robotic, possibly interdimensional—but military-linked—“drone” behind cattle mutilations. Wild, but on-brand for the ranch. 01:10:00 – Doomscrolling… on the Throne News riff: celebrity asides lead to a study on phone use in the bathroom and hemorrhoids; the crew roasts toilet-time doomscrolling culture. 01:20:00 – “Smart” Thermostats, Dumb Idea? (Ohio) A proposed Ohio peak-demand bill could let utilities nudge your thermostat and cycle appliances. Spirited rant about smart meters, heat waves, and control vs. reliability. 01:30:00 – Annabelle & A Death on Tour Paranormal investigator's fatal heart attack while touring with the Annabelle doll sparks a talk about curses and how “dark forces” might push back. 01:40:00 – Breakdancing Against Property Taxes Viral clip: a New Jersey candidate breakdances at a town meeting to protest tax hikes. The guys debate property taxes, fixed incomes, and optics—then keep chuckling at the moves. 01:50:00 – “Even the Experts Got Phished” At Singapore's anti-fraud confab, a QR “gotcha” snares attendees; tangent into Southeast Asian scam compounds, Facebook Marketplace headaches, and hygiene tips for digital life. 02:00:00 – AI ‘Slop' & The Human Touch Segment on freelancers fixing botched AI logos and copy; Mike's rant about a friend's AI-generated article that read like “wall-to-wall trash” underscores why craft still matters. 02:10:00 – Late-Night Stream, Early-Morning Blackout After-show vibes: Mike recalls a midnight stream that died in a wide local power outage—no clear cause from the utility—then winds down for the week.   Copyright Disclaimer Under Section 107 of the Copyright Act 1976, allowance is made for "fair use" for purposes such as criticism, comment, news reporting, teaching, scholarship, and research ▀▄▀▄▀ CONTACT LINKS ▀▄▀▄▀ ► Phone: 614-388-9109 ► Skype: ourbigdumbmouth ► Website: http://obdmpod.com ► Twitch: https://www.twitch.tv/obdmpod ► Full Videos at Odysee: https://odysee.com/@obdm:0 ► Twitter: https://twitter.com/obdmpod ► Instagram: obdmpod ► Email: ourbigdumbmouth at gmail ► RSS: http://ourbigdumbmouth.libsyn.com/rss ► iTunes: https://itunes.apple.com/us/podcast/our-big-dumb-mouth/id261189509?mt=2  

Short episode because Mike's power went out. EDIT: I fixed the intro. This is a re-upload 00:00:00 – Stream Setup Chaos & the Cloud VM Plan Mike wrestles with streaming platforms and lands on a plan to run OBS/Restream through a cloud-hosted GPU VM—cool, pricey, and very “to the cloud!” 00:10:00 – “Watercooler Show” Vibes & Alex/Owen Drama The guys tee up a “big” episode, then dive into the Alex Jones–Owen Shroyer split, with speculation about what triggered the blow-up. 00:20:00 – Alex's Apology, Joe's Update, and a Goldblum Bit Alex Jones apologizes on air; Joe sends word he'll be back after finishing freelance gigs; and we get a pitch-perfect Jeff Goldblum read before pivoting topics. 00:30:00 – Did the Ancient Greeks Reach America? They unpack a Greek Reporter piece: a Plutarch dialogue, Saturn in Taurus as a travel marker, and a 75 AD eclipse are used to argue Greeks could ride Atlantic currents to North America—wild, but fun to consider. 00:40:00 – Bigfoot as… Cain? A Mormon-adjacent legend says Cain was cursed to roam the earth—and some tie that to Bigfoot. The crew riffs on the lore and how it meshes with sightings. 00:50:00 – Bigfoot Lore Deep Dive More on the Cain/Bigfoot angle, an ex-Mormon thread, even “Is Bigfoot a swimmer?” plus a recent Michigan encounter reminder. 01:00:00 – Roger Waters vs. the Osbournes & Radiohead Buzz Roger Waters' jab at Ozzy draws fire from Jack Osbourne; then chatter veers to sales stats and Radiohead's first tour in years. 01:10:00 – Network-State Utopias in Ghost Cities Balaji's “network state” gets a workout: a ghost metropolis in Malaysia as a classroom, legal headaches in Honduras, and big questions about recognition and sovereignty. 01:20:00 – AI Money Flood & a Peer-Reviewed UFO Case Anthropic/Claude closes a monster Series F at a gargantuan valuation, and—big one for UFO nerds—a 1966 Louisiana case is accepted by Progress in Aerospace Sciences after peer review. 01:30:00 – “Desert of the Weird”: 100 Piles of Ashes & AC/DC vs. Wolves A Nevada mystery: roughly 100 piles of professionally cremated remains are found near Searchlight; later, drones blasting AC/DC are used to haze wolves and protect cattle. 01:40:00 – The Lights Go Out A sudden power outage knocks the show offline; Mike signs off and promises an extra-long crazy-news segment Saturday.   Copyright Disclaimer Under Section 107 of the Copyright Act 1976, allowance is made for "fair use" for purposes such as criticism, comment, news reporting, teaching, scholarship, and research ▀▄▀▄▀ CONTACT LINKS ▀▄▀▄▀ ► Phone: 614-388-9109 ► Skype: ourbigdumbmouth ► Website: http://obdmpod.com ► Twitch: https://www.twitch.tv/obdmpod ► Full Videos at Odysee: https://odysee.com/@obdm:0 ► Twitter: https://twitter.com/obdmpod ► Instagram: obdmpod ► Email: ourbigdumbmouth at gmail ► RSS: http://ourbigdumbmouth.libsyn.com/rss ► iTunes: https://itunes.apple.com/us/podcast/our-big-dumb-mouth/id261189509?mt=2  

Detroit Lions 2025 Season Kickoff: Final Roster & Season Outlook Welcome to the start of the 2025 Detroit Lions NFL Season with the Detroit Lions Podcast, Chris & Jeff Risdon. Training camp concluded, and “football is back” begins. The Detroit Lions have trimmed their roster down to a streamlined core of 52 players heading into Week 1. With the clock ticking toward kickoff against the Packers, the final depth chart is nearly set - and the stakes couldn't be higher. Coach Dan Campbell made tough choices in the final roster cuts, ultimately arriving at a 52‑man squad - a number short of the full 53 roster limit. Notably, backup quarterback Hendon Hooker was released, solidifying Kyle Allen as the clear No. 2 under center behind Jared Goff. With three spots still open, the team is positioned to make strategic in-season additions to round out special teams and depth. Detroit Lions players to watch now rise under scrutiny. Isaac TeSlaa, a surprise choice to stay, and rising defenders like Aidan Hutchinson will have every rep count. Campbell's calm demeanor and message of internal focus—blocking outside noise and trusting the process—resonate as the roster battle concludes and the season beckons. The Detroit Lions vs. Green Bay Packers matchup is more than tradition - it's a measuring stick for early season trajectory. Betting lines have tightened, with the Packers currently favored by 2.5 points at Lambeau Field, and the over/under set at 47.5 points. Detroit enters as the underdog on the road, yet the rivalry's history still carries weight. The Lions split earlier contests, and the NFC North title hangs in the balance from the opening whistle. This game kicks off NFL Week 1, where the depth chart's health and the Lions' preparedness will show. Who steps up under pressure, who chips in on special teams, and how well the rookies perform will all influence early momentum. Heading into the season, several 2025 Lions questions remain: Will John Morton weather the pressure as a new Offensive Coordinator? Can the offensive line hold firm against Green Bay's edge rush? Which players will emerge from the final roster cut as impact contributors? Will Campbell's leadership help dampen the early-season noise and maintain focus? Football is back, and with it, real answers to these questions are on the horizon. Tune in to this episode of the Detroit Lions Podcast as we break down the Detroit Lions depth chart, spotlight key players, and gear up for the Detroit Lions vs. Green Bay Packers showdown—Season Kickoff is here. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dJNCy1TBB_c Let us know what you think about the show by commenting in the podcast thread in the subreddit, or by leaving us a voice mail message via Skype at: Detroit Lions Podcast  Your input will help make the show better, and if you leave us a message on Skype, you just might be featured in an upcoming podcast!

Kevin Werbach interviews DJ Patil, the first U.S. Chief Data Scientist under the Obama Administration, about the evolving role of AI in government, healthcare, and business. Patil reflects on how the mission of government data leadership has grown more critical today: ensuring good data, using it responsibly, and unleashing its power for public benefit. He describes both the promise and the paralysis of today's “big data” era, where dashboards abound, but decision-making often stalls. He highlights the untapped potential of federal datasets, such as the VA's Million Veterans Project, which could accelerate cures for major diseases if unlocked. Yet funding gaps, bureaucratic resistance, and misalignment with Congress continue to stand in the way. Turning to AI, Patil describes a landscape of extraordinary progress: tools that help patients ask the right questions of their physicians, innovations that enhance customer service, and a wave of entrepreneurial energy transforming industries. At the same time, he raises alarms about inequitable access, job disruption, complacency in relying on imperfect systems, and the lack of guardrails to prevent harmful misuse. Rather than relentlessly stepping on the gas in the AI "race," he emphasizes, we need a steering wheel, in the form of public policy, to ensure that AI development serves the public good.  DJ Patil is an entrepreneur, investor, scientist, and public policy leader who served as the first U.S. Chief Data Scientist under the Obama Administration. He has held senior leadership roles at PayPal, eBay, LinkedIn, and Skype, and is currently a General Partner at Greylock Ventures. Patil is recognized as a pioneer in advancing the use of data science to drive innovation, inform policy, and create public benefit. Transcript Ethics of Data Science, Co-Authored by DJ Patil

The Fellowship is pleased to present our discussion of the comic strip Calvin and Hobbes. It's been around for 40 years now, though it only ran for 10. And boy, was it a good one. Plus our usual crazy talk, geek news, and tangents

00:00:00 – America's Podcast & Apple Pay Meltdown The hosts kick off with jokes about being “America's podcast” and share some odd headlines. They play a viral clip of a woman crying because she thought Apple Pay used “Apple Dollars” instead of real money, leading to a big credit card bill. The crew jokes about debt collectors, confusion over Steve Jobs vs. Tim Cook, and whether the clip was parody or genuine. 00:10:00 – Red-Eyed Aliens: Kelly Cahill's Encounter They dive into Kelly Cahill's 1993 alien abduction in Australia, where she reported seeing tall, black, red-eyed beings. Her strong Christian faith framed the experience as a spiritual battle. She telepathically pleaded with the craft, saw multiple witnesses present, and later experienced missing time. 00:20:00 – The Terrifying Encounter Unfolds Kelly and her husband stopped their car near a glowing craft. They, along with several bystanders, witnessed red-eyed entities gliding toward them. Kelly felt overwhelming fear, nausea, and a psychic assault. The beings projected the thought “let's kill them,” before a sterile voice from the craft claimed: “We mean you no harm. I am her father.” Kelly resisted, insisting they were evil. 00:30:00 – Resistance, Faith, and Aftermath Kelly fought back, invoking God, which seemed to weaken the beings' hold. After missing time, she awoke with strange body marks and signs of a possible phantom pregnancy. Later, she was visited at night by hooded, red-eyed entities who appeared to drain her life force. In dreams, they offered her a ride if she abandoned her Bible—she chose faith. Investigators later confirmed multiple witnesses to the craft. 00:40:00 – Red-Eyed Entities Worldwide The discussion broadens to other cases: Mothman, Puerto Rico hooded figures, Alabama sightings, Brazil's Varginha incident, and Jacques Vallée's research linking red eyes to demon and fairy lore. The hosts suggest these beings thrive on fear, unlike the more clinical “grey” aliens, and may be soul-stealing entities. 00:50:00 – Remote Viewing 3I Atlas Comet/Asteroid Shifting topics, they cover remote viewing sessions of the interstellar object 3I Atlas. Viewers reported it as partly biological and artificial, slimy, with advanced technology, cloaking, and possible AI. Descriptions included observation windows, propulsion systems, and intentions of manipulation or control. The consensus: it's not friendly. 01:00:00 – Dark Intentions of 3I Atlas Remote viewers described ominous behaviors: mind control, scanning, mass hysteria, and disdain for humanity. The object seems ancient, engineered, and possibly waiting for the right time to reveal itself. Its closest approach to Earth is expected in December 2025. The hosts joke about “slimy camouflage aliens” ruining Christmas. 01:10:00 – Gifts, Gags, and Phone Lines Listeners sent the hosts a Hulk Hogan bobblehead and Flatwoods Monster puzzle, which go onto the “Shelf of Honor.” They open the phone lines, offering five pounds of pumpkin spice as a giveaway. Callers speculate on 3I Atlas, joke about Santa being an alien, and discuss pumpkin scarcity in Alaska. 01:20:00 – Calls from Beyond: Queen Elizabeth Returns A caller role-plays as Queen Elizabeth from the afterlife, lamenting the lack of pumpkin spice in heaven and repeatedly chanting “mama mama.” The hosts joke about her getting medical advice from Dr. Pepper in the afterlife. 01:30:00 – News of the Weird: Costumed Justice News updates include: Police bodycam footage of Chuck E. Cheese being arrested for credit card fraud, traumatizing kids. A Florida man in Batman pajamas stopping a burglar, with the pajamas giving him “extra confidence.” Discussion of lame Batman villains and the idea of Batman vs. Bigfoot. A Japanese AI-generated video simulating a Mount Fuji eruption to warn citizens, described as “AI fear porn.” 01:40:00 – AI Fear Porn & Mount Fuji The hosts cover a Japanese government initiative using AI-generated videos to simulate a Mount Fuji eruption. The goal is to prepare Tokyo residents, but the hyper-realistic clips look terrifying — with ash clouds, gridlocked transport, and people panicking in the streets. They joke about it being “AI fear porn,” noting it's effective but unsettling. The discussion touches on disaster preparedness, psychological effects of such visuals, and whether people would take it seriously or just freak out. 01:50:00 – Wrapping Up with Oddities The show closes with more banter on AI, disasters, and absurdity. They riff on cultural quirks, emergency responses, and how media often blurs the line between warning and entertainment. As always, it ends with a mix of humor, skepticism, and bizarre imagery — leaving listeners with both laughs and unease.

General News  01:02 AOL is finally shutting down its dial-up internet service | AP News AOL is discontinuing its dial-up internet service on September 30, 2024, marking the end of a technology that introduced millions to the internet in the 1990s and early 2000s. Census data shows 163,401 US households still used dial-up in 2023, representing 0.13% of homes with internet subscriptions, highlighting the persistence of legacy infrastructure in underserved areas – which is honestly crazy.  Here's hoping that these folks are able to switch to alternatives, like Starlink. This shutdown reflects broader technology lifecycle patterns as companies retire legacy services like Skype, Internet Explorer, and AOL Instant Messenger to focus resources on modern platforms. The transition away from dial-up demonstrates the evolution from telephone-based connectivity to broadband and wireless technologies that now dominate internet access. AOL’s journey from a $164 billion valuation in 2000 to being sold by Verizon in 2021 illustrates the rapid shifts in technology markets and the challenges of ada

00:00:00 – Power Outages & Alex Jones Madness The show kicks off with banter about coffee, power outages, and how this is "the one" episode to watch. Alex Jones clips are then featured—ranging from chaotic rants, bizarre Thomas Jefferson misquotes, and wild conspiratorial tangents about Santa costumes and secret grand juries. 00:10:00 – Red-Eyed Aliens & Sleep-Deprived Man The hosts tease a future segment about red-eyed alien abductions involving a Muslim-Christian couple in Australia. They also speculate on the Flatwoods Monster's glowing red eyes and mention the finale of The Secret of Skinwalker Ranch. Then, a story is discussed about a UK man who claims to have been unable to sleep for two years, detailing his horrifying physical and mental deterioration. 00:20:00 – Comets, Conspiracies & Star Trek Parallels The conversation continues about the sleepless man before shifting to a baffling space object called 3I-ATLAS. It's discussed as possibly being a probe or alien craft, with a supposed leaked NASA memo suggesting it's under intelligent control. The team humorously compares it to Star Trek plots involving alien communication. 00:30:00 – Bigfoot Corpse at the State Fair A man named “Snake” claims to have found and displayed a Bigfoot corpse at the New York State Fair. The hosts express skepticism, noting the suspicious nature of the body and lack of video evidence. Local news coverage is played, showing the man's enthusiastic claims about battling Bigfoots and showcasing the corpse to fairgoers. 00:40:00 – Critique of the Bigfoot Body & State Fair Highlights Further discussion of the suspect Bigfoot corpse ensues. It's described as looking like a glued-together arts and crafts project. The hosts then shift to reviewing the New York State Fair offerings—deep-fried food, rooster crowing contests, and odd musical acts. A humorous critique of tribute bands and bizarre fair events follows. 00:50:00 – Skull with a Stalagmite & Mayo Firestarter The show shifts to a 300,000-year-old skull found in Greece with a stalagmite growing through it, puzzling scientists. Then, a man in Spain is arrested for setting a café on fire after being denied mayonnaise. The team jokes about male rage, potential mayo clinics, and cultural condiment preferences. 01:00:00 – Stablecoins, Chinese Students & AI Mayhem Discussion jumps to financial headlines, including stablecoins potentially draining bank deposits and Donald Trump proposing to allow 600,000 Chinese students into U.S. colleges. The team jokes about “China” using an old Trump clip. News is also covered about a Saudi-built Islamic AI chatbot and a hacker who used AI to conduct a massive cyberattack. 01:10:00 – AI-Powered Cybercrime & Tacos The cyberattack details are expanded, noting how a hacker used AI to write ransomware demands and find exploitable data. Then, attention turns to a taco-eating contest in San Antonio offering a $10,000 prize. The sign-up has already closed, disappointing the hosts. Joe is humorously nominated to compete. 01:20:00 – Taco Contest Fallout & Zuckerberg's Bunkers Further complaints about the closed taco contest continue. The show then dives into Mark Zuckerberg's massive compound in Palo Alto, where he handed out noise-canceling headphones to neighbors due to constant construction. The hosts mock the billionaire's efforts to maintain privacy while disrupting the neighborhood with “hydro floors” and private schools. 01:30:00 – Zuckerberg's Noise Diplomacy The crew wraps up their critiques of Zuckerberg's sprawling estate, suggesting his gestures like wine and doughnuts to neighbors are tone-deaf. There's some light commentary on his bizarre bunker expansions and the absurdity of Silicon Valley billionaires. 01:40:00 – Orgy Dome Controversy at Burning Man The team discusses a controversy involving someone being kicked out of the “Orgy Dome” at Burning Man for witnessing something disturbing. They mock the corporatization of Burning Man, suggesting brands like Little Caesars or Taco Cabana might soon sponsor the orgy tent. An Instagram photo of the dome's condition is referenced, and there's satire about how far the festival has strayed from its roots. 01:50:00 – Pumpkin Spice Chaos & White Elephant Nightmares A bizarre story unfolds about someone ordering 25 pounds of pumpkin spice online, leading to jokes about spice jungles and white elephant gifts. The team riffs on absurd workplace gift exchanges, packages with suspicious wrapping, and household pumpkin spice overloads—flavored water, scented air, and even garden tools. The hosts end on this autumnal madness with a final round of laughs.

Detroit Lions 2025 Cutdown To Kickoff: Initial Breakdown Chris & Jeff cover the Lions'  status shuffle of Hendon Hooker, roster cut drama, and depth-chart breakdown—a perfect setup for a new episode of the Detroit Lions Podcast. The Detroit Lions have executed their most critical roster maneuver of the year—trimming to the 53-man roster—and currently sit at 52 players ahead of the season kickoff. The most notable surprise was the release of quarterback Hendon Hooker, who enters free agency after a preseason marred by turnovers and inconsistency. Head coach Dan Campbell had already signaled a shift in the QB hierarchy toward Kyle Allen, and Hooker's performance sealed his fate. Other casualties included veteran tackle Dan Skipper, along with several developmental players who were unable to solidify roster spots. The Lions' final roster currently features three potential openings as they continue to evaluate waiver and practice squad possibilities. Depth Chart Moves and Players to Watch With the Detroit Lions roster in flux, attention now shifts to who solidified their place and who remains on the bubble. The most pressing spotlight falls on: Kyle Allen, now cemented as the clear backup QB following Hooker's release. Daniel Thomas, added to bolster special teams and safety depth, immediately becoming a name to watch for situational snaps. Edge depth was shored up with defensive linemen Tyler Lacy and Tyrus Wheat, potentially shifting the Detroit Lions depth chart in ways fans haven't yet calculated. Training Camp 2025 emphasized competition at every level, particularly with remaining developmental players and late-round picks fighting to define their roles. As the regular season draws nearer, every snap becomes a statement. For a complete rundown of all roster cuts, a deep dive into Hooker's release, and who moved up the charts as the Lions enter the final buildup before kickoff, tune in to this pivotal episode of the Detroit Lions Podcast.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GtmB3fjD900 Let us know what you think about the show by commenting in the podcast thread in the subreddit, or by leaving us a voice mail message via Skype at: Detroit Lions Podcast  Your input will help make the show better, and if you leave us a message on Skype, you just might be featured in an upcoming podcast!

If the answer is yes, fuck what people think. If it's a yes, and tomorrow it's a yes, and then the next week it's a yes, and then next month it's a no, then you make a change. Lesley Logan 0:22  Welcome to the Be It Till You See It podcast where we talk about taking messy action, knowing that perfect is boring. I'm Lesley Logan, Pilates instructor and fitness business coach. I've trained thousands of people around the world and the number one thing I see stopping people from achieving anything is self-doubt. My friends, action brings clarity and it's the antidote to fear. Each week, my guest will bring bold, executable, intrinsic and targeted steps that you can use to put yourself first and Be It Till You See It. It's a practice, not a perfect. Let's get started.Lesley Logan 1:05  Welcome back to the Be It Till You See It interview recap where my co-host in life, Brad, and I are going to dig into the authentic convo I had with Anthony Benenati in our last episode. If you haven't yet listened to that one, you've missed out. Brad Crowell 1:16  You definitely missed out. Lesley Logan 1:18  I don't like to go around saying you made mistakes, but you did.Brad Crowell 1:20  You did. Lesley Logan 1:24  You don't suck or anything, but, all right, before I get into that, today is August 28th 2025 and it is National Rainbow Bridge Remembrance Day. And on this day, of course, it's gonna say Rainbow Bridge twice. So the death of a beloved pet, whether it's the family dog, a furry kitty, or something a little more obscure, is a sad occasion. Rainbow Bridge Remembrance Day on August 28th is the day that we remember the pets that are no longer with us. Whilst the pain of losing a pet, you can't laugh while we're talking about dead dogs, babe, but we are laughing because Rainbow Bridge Remembrance Day is a day we remember our pets. We got that from remembrance, you know, like we got it, okay, anyways. Whilst the pain of losing a pet somewhat heals over time, they're never forgotten, and today is their day. The day was founded by author Deborah Barnes as a way for people to share their memories of the pets that they have lost, whether it's a dog, a hamster or a snake, or, you know, anything in between. Oh, maybe this is the day that we maybe actually like say it. Brad Crowell 2:32  That's what I was thinking. Lesley Logan 2:34  Okay, well, do you want to say it?Brad Crowell 2:36  Yeah, I do. Also, I think it's great that it's in the month of August. Lesley Logan 2:40  I know it's like we knew. Brad Crowell 2:42  If you didn't know, Lesley and I have only one dog now, and it's been a couple of months that we lost August as well. And when I say as well, what I mean is last year, we lost Gaia towards the end of the year, and then about six months later, we also lost August, and that was really, really challenging, and not something that we talk about very often.Lesley Logan 3:08  I know well, because there's a difference, and I think that's what was important about this day. And like, if you needed this day, it's like, there's something it was something easier. I mean, it felt really hard at the time when we had to, like, make a day to say goodbye to Gaia, you know, like we, we knew for years the day was coming, and we could see it was time. And we had a different situation with August, where it was just like, oh. Brad Crowell 3:33  It was unexpected. It was sudden. Lesley Logan 3:35  This is happening to this is happening today, and that's, that, like, that's just not enough time for your brain to like, not that we miss him differently, but we, I do, like, it's just a different grief. It felt like a different grief. Brad Crowell 3:48  It felt like a different grief. I felt like with Gaia, I had a lot more opportunity to say goodbye ahead of time, you know. And then when when it was gone, it was fond memories. With August, it felt like shock and sadness.Lesley Logan 4:11  Yeah, yeah. I mean, with and with her, like, I felt like, okay, she's gonna be better. Because, like, she was just having a hard time being alive. And he was so young, so that just felt like it was it was hard, it was awful. We didn't talk about it, because there's when you when you share, that someone passes away, or a pet passes away, there's an outpouring of love because of this world we live in. Like, you can say what you want about the negative sides of social media. But the positive sides are like, insane. It's like, it's like the people from your life 10 years ago, and because people have had pets like, they feel it. When you lose a pet and you see someone like you feel that loss with them. Because you know what it feels like and like, in no way were we capable of handling any I'm sorry, like I couldn't and, like, even now we're getting teary eyed. So anyways, we have one amazing dog, and we, if you know this about OPC, well, all of our companies do a little donation to a charity. It's built into all of our products and our profit margins and OPC, this year, I chose a dog charity down because they get like, 500 animals, like, a week, and like, they're trying really hard to be a no kill shelter, and I, and we can't I, like, literally, look at dogs Brad, like, look at this one. Like, we're gonna, like, we're gonna take this on. And as much as, like, oh, that fills this hole. Then I'm, like, it doesn't fill the hole. So, like, anyways, National Rainbow Bridge Remembrance Day to for from our hearts to all of yours who've lost a pet, it's so hard. So anyways, okay, so in other news. Brad Crowell 5:51  In other news.Lesley Logan 5:52  We are back from our tour, as you heard last time, but we are literally leaving in like four days to go to the U.K., and we opened up ala carte workshops, which means that if you can't take a whole day off with us, it's quite possible there is a spot left in a workshop. So we just took the day passes and allowed people to buy a workshop. So there might be one or two workshops that you can snag your spot. And so go to opc.me/uk because we're going to be in Essex and Leeds, and I don't know when we'll be back teaching in the U.K., but I know we're gonna be there now, and it's gonna be so much fun. There's some great workshops. There's some business ones, there's some Pilates ones. They're for people who like us and love us and just wanna learn with us who are really, absolutely amazing. So thank you to our hosts from The Movement Base and Chapel Allerton Pilates. Then we come back and like, two weeks later, we leave for Chicagoland. We're going to be at a Balanced Body's POT and I'm teaching the Joe's gyms there. Brad is going to have, like, Brad just now was helping me with the booth, and that's it's in Burr Ridge, but they call it Chicagoland, and I like that. And from Chicagoland, we're going to go to Cambodia. And you know what? We've had people last minute join us, like we said, you could join like, two weeks before. So, crowsnestretreats.com, if you are feeling ambitious and wanting to get the heck out of town because there's a lot going on and maybe you just want to take a break. So, crowsnestretreats.com. And then what? Brad Crowell 7:16  Well, we're actually working on lighting up a workshop and some classes in Singapore right now. Lesley Logan 7:21  I know. Brad Crowell 7:22  Which would be awesome. We'll see. You know, I would say at this point, if it hasn't come together, then we have a problem. If you're listening to this now, but right now we're working on it when we're recording this. So we're gonna say, yeah, it happened. It definitely happened. We got a workshop coming in Singapore.Lesley Logan 7:39  It's going to happen because, hello. I mean, it's not very often Singapore that I have a layover during daylight hours. Brad Crowell 7:44  That's right. Lesley Logan 7:44  And so we're gonna make there's people who want it.Brad Crowell 7:46  It's gonna be awesome, yeah. But anyway, we've been looking at different venues right now, and we're lining it all up. So yeah. And then after we get back from Singapore, we actually are home for about a month, which is quite nice to to chill out. We some family coming into town, and then we go on our winter tour for OPC, where we're driving another 8000 miles this year. Last year, we did 8200 over the winter. This year is going to be less miles more stops. Oh, yeah. Lesley Logan 8:20  Okay. Brad Crowell 8:21  Less miles, more steps, but it's gonna be awesome. We are stoked. Lesley Logan 8:24  You know what's really funny, guys? Okay, so the team, like, I see the map, I see where we're going, I give some inputs on some places. I'm like, yeah, I'll do that, whatever. But then they don't actually always tell me, like, all the events we're doing. So like, this week, all the private events that, because, like, studios that host us can also, like, hire us for an event, just for their team, right? So there's a public class and a public workshop, and then sometimes there's a private workshop. And apparently there's a lot more than workshops that I thought on the summer tour. So I am interested to see this winter tour. I expect lots of gifts and lots of hugs, but we'll announce the winter tour in October. So if you are in Cambodia with us, you'll hear it all announced. Brad Crowell 9:03  Yes, you will. Lesley Logan 9:04  Okay before we get into Anthony's incredible episode. What is the question of the week?Brad Crowell 9:10  Yes, great. So I don't actually know how to say this, netamenashe, yeah, netamenashe. there you go, on Instagram, she asked, Hey Lesley, do you do any Zoom sessions sometimes? Lesley Logan 9:27  Sometimes I do. Brad Crowell 9:28  Sometimes.Lesley Logan 9:29  That's true. Yeah. Who gets them? It's gonna sound like I'm an asshole, but the people who get Zoom sessions with me are people who are in my mentorship program, to be completely honest. I don't have a lot of hours in a week that I can teach because of we run OPC, you run Profitable Pilates, you know, and we do have the mentorship program, so the limited times that I have are for those in that program. And then sometimes OPC members get access to that calendar. But basically, as you can hear, no one publicly gets access to those things. So as much as I love to teach the world on Zoom, that the way I can do that is through OPC actually, because we have a monthly live class, and I can look, we can hang out afterwards, and I can look at your form. I can answer your questions. You don't even have to come to the live class when I look at your form, you can submit videos, and I can give you feedback. So if you're wanting me to give you feedback on some exercises, be an OPC member. If you're a teacher, you can go through eLevate we only have a few spots there, where OPC, it's obviously as many people. Brad Crowell 10:28  Open to the world. Lesley Logan 10:28  Open to the world and. Lesley Logan 10:29  But yeah, I mean, with eLevate, if you, if you're actually looking for a specific feedback on your practice and you want to really grow, Neta, you should be considering eLevate. It's for teachers. It's a nine-month program. It's like, consider it like going and getting a master's degree somewhere. It's very in depth, in in in what it covers. It's going to run through everything that Lesley learned from Jay Grimes, who studied with Joe. So you're going to be covering 500 exercises. It's going to be amazing. During that time, your your personal practice will significantly grow, and you'll also have, Lesley will be, you know, watching your practice during those nine months, too. So that's like, the best way to make that happen. Just reach out, or go to lesleylogan.co/elevate and or you can book a call. I'm super happy to hop on a call and just say, what's up, you know.Lesley Logan 11:21  I mean, I it's like a it's a great problem to have. And I actually used to teach this long I've been teaching online. I used to teach on Skype, and I used to teach people all over on Skype. Brad Crowell 11:30  2015, '16, '17 Skype.Lesley Logan 11:33  Yeah, Skype, oh, my God. Or sometimes Facebook, sometimes Facebook Messenger, because Skype wasn't working, or whatever, like, it was so, but I was, like, anything that has a video I can teach on it. And, you know, but, yeah, I think, like, we do have some great opportunities to work together in person between the tours and Cambodia, and then the online stuff is, you know, you I all love. Brad Crowell 11:56  That's another great one. You could come with us to Cambodia, Neta, where you'll be doing five classes with Lesley during the retreat. And obviously, you know, it's, it's not a large group. So you can come there and be in person. Lesley Logan 12:10  Yeah. So you guys send in your questions. You can, like, you'll literally hear honest feedback and answers. And we love answering them. Like, I just, I want, I want, I want I want questions about your wedding, I don't know. Like, give me some good ones. Go to beitpod.com/questions to submit them, or text us at 310-905-5534, it doesn't yet mean Be It Pod, but we're getting to.Brad Crowell 12:34  No it's not gonna mean Be It Pod anytime soon. So I love that your wishful thinking here it's, you know, low on the list.Lesley Logan 12:41  Being it till I see it. Brad Crowell 12:43  Lower on the priority list. Lesley Logan 12:47  All right, all right. Brad Crowell 12:49  Love you. Lesley Logan 12:49  Love you too.Brad Crowell 12:51  Stick around. We'll be right back. We're gonna dig into one of my really dear friends who I've now known for more than a decade, and he he's just inspirational in multiple ways, being a yogi, but also, you know, he's a philosopher too. So cannot wait to dig into this convbo that you have with Anthony Benenati. You're really going to enjoy. If you haven't already gone back and listened to that, you should, but yeah, looking forward to it. Stick around we'll be right back. Brad Crowell 13:19  Right. Let's talk about Mr. Anthony Benenati. A professional yoga teacher with over 32 years of experience. Before stepping into yoga, Anthony served in the Air Force and worked in a comp as a competitive power lifter. I don't know if he worked at it, but he was a competitive power lifter, which left him with shoulder and knee injuries. In fact, you know, he he told me when he was younger, he couldn't even touch his toes, you know, and today he's like, you know, obviously been doing yoga for three decades. He founded City Yoga, which was California's first on a Sora studio, and he now leads, That's Not Yoga. That's his website, thatsnotyoga.com. He he's actually also done a lot of business stuff, and like because he sold studios and then he taught for other people, and he's done workshops and holds retreats, all sorts of stuff. Anthony's philosophy is to fit yoga to the student, making sure the practice leads to transformation and healing, not to suffering. And he teaches students to listen to their bodies every day, meeting themselves where they're at, with their openness and compassion, and yeah I think that is a really great summary of, you know, who he is. But I would also say he rides a motorcycle, he drinks beer, he curses. He's fucking cool and hip, and that's one of the things that that I connected with him the most about is because I had this preconception of what's a yogi. Lesley Logan 14:45  I mean, your first class was, like a per tip, like a bit like, like the typical yoga instructor, like this little, soft spoken older lady.Brad Crowell 14:52  No, no, no, no, no. I had my well, so that, so that was the first teacher that I actually learned from, and she was super sweet and nice. But yes, the class was literally for, like, elderly people. And I was like, teach me the foundations. And I liked the class because she let her students ask questions during class. And I was like, I don't understand this pose. How does it work? And it effectively was like. Lesley Logan 15:14  In case you haven't noticed, Brad, you guys, Brad literally interrupts all classes to ask questions. Like, like, all classes, he has questions. He comes on the retreat, and he'll just pop into a class, and then he's got a question. It's like, we actually talked about that yesterday, and you missed class. But okay.Brad Crowell 15:29  So, but my very first class was hilarious, because I'm like, you know, my nickname in yoga class was shark boy, or Mr. Bendy, and I, I've just been I'm a hyper mobile body, so naturally flexible. And I get to my first yoga class ever was a Groupon that I bought, and I showed up for class, and I'm in the middle of, like, 30 or 40 people, and I don't have a clue what I'm doing. I'm watching this guy up in the front, you know, do all the things. And I was like, okay, we're sticking our arm over there. We're shooting, our leg over this way. We're twisting and blah, blah, blah. And at the end of the class, he came up to me, he's like, wow, man, you have a great practice. And I was like, this is my very first class. And it was like, what? And I was like, yeah. And then I left the studio, and I walked out to my motorcycle, and I could not get onto it. Lesley Logan 16:16  You did way too much. Brad Crowell 16:17  Because I hurt myself so bad that I literally had to sit there for like an hour just for my back to not be screaming at me. And I was like, well, yoga is not for me. And I just was like, I'm done. And then I never, you know, like, I never went back, and I, but I, but I had that Groupon right? And so anyway, somehow I ended up using it. And I bought another package somewhere with Anthony, because the studio was convenient and but I only want. Lesley Logan 16:46  Your first class wasn't with Anthony. Brad Crowell 16:47  No, no, my first class was not with Anthony. But like, a year or two later, I was like, I'm gonna give this another try. And I did buy, like, a 10 pack at Anthony's studio, and I use, like, and he didn't have an expiration on it, right? So, and I, but I only use, like, two classes. And then I didn't know yoga for like, years. And then there was a point where I was like, I need to go. I need to go back to class. And I, I called the studio. Had, he had sold it and, you know, so I, I went. I was like, hey, I had this package with the old studio, you know, you know. And I wasn't even taking with Anthony. I had been taking with that lady, that older lady, lady, but I still had packages. It just so happened to be Anthony's studio. I didn't know that, yeah. So when I went back, Anthony was the teacher, and that's how I first met him. And I was like, who the hell is this guy? He's awesome. This is rad and that and then I was like, hooked. I was in. This is probably like, 2014. So I've been dabbling in yoga for like, maybe three years, but not really.Lesley Logan 17:46  I love how two or three times in two years is dabbling.Brad Crowell 17:50  Yeah. Well, with the with the older with the with the older lady, whose name I don't remember, and I feel bad about that. I probably went, you know, I bought a few 10 packs, you know, I went a few times.Lesley Logan 18:00  Okay, it wasn't clear that there's a multiple 10 pack. Brad Crowell 18:02  Yeah. Sorry, sorry I went a few times, like, I had enough foundation (inaudible). Lesley Logan 18:05  Every time I've heard this story it has always had, like, one 10 pack, and it's like, you get a couple of times it's not dabbling.Brad Crowell 18:12  Oh, I went, I went, yeah, I went enough to, like, decide that yoga wasn't gonna hurt me if I knew what I was doing. But, you know, I didn't actually, like, it didn't turn it into a habit or a practice. I just went a few times, and then, you know, it wasn't until, you know, a year later that I went back to redeem the rest of my package that, studio had sold. I didn't even know it. And I was like, well, they're gonna honor it. I already have classes. I'll just go there. And then I happened to pop into a class that was Anthony's, but, wow, that was a long story that has nothing to do with anything. Lesley Logan 18:45  Speaking of Anthony. Brad Crowell 18:45  Yeah, let's shift on, like from your convo, which was deep. Lesley Logan 18:50  It was deep. I knew it would be, I know it'd be so good, but I think for all the teachers, no matter what you teach, this is a really great thing. Anthony says he believes that the most effective teacher is someone who understands how people get to the practice. Brad Crowell 19:03  Well, you just found out. Lesley Logan 19:05  Yeah, well, but like, right, right, but like, I think this goes to, you know, we coach a lot of Pilates instructors, and they're like, I want to work with an advanced person. All they want to do is lose weight, and it's like, right? And we don't want you to lie to people, but you have to understand what gets people to the practice, so that you can have empathy for them being a beginner, because they should be allowed to be a beginner, and we can't, we don't want them to feel shame for what they think they want in their life, because that's a compilation of years of stories and influence good or bad to, and in the conversation we talked about, there's no such thing as good or bad, but like to to someone. And so how can you really have a lived experience, so that you can in whatever it is you're teaching, so that you can come from a really great place, an honest place, and and be human, you know, like, I think a lot of instructors put themselves upon pedestals, cult leaders and and forget that like you are also in practice when you teach something, that's a practice, right? And so he also said empathy is such an important factor to be a great teacher, you have to put yourself in their shoes. And this is something like, look, of course, I have days where I get tired and I'm like, why don't they just fucking relax and stop trying to be perfect, like I don't understand, like, I'm fucking just, just relax, just be in practice. But also, I know what that is like. I know why they can't do it. I know that they have years of like, being for whatever, like somebody told them that it had maybe the perfection is because it kept the house safe. You know, there's so many different reasons why people seek perfection. They want certainty. They want control, you know.Brad Crowell 20:47  Yeah, I mean, it could be a response from uncertainty in another area of their life, where they feel like this is where I can have certainty, because I know exactly how it's supposed to be, you know. And then, and then it becomes this thing. Lesley Logan 21:00  Yeah, but when I when I like, so when I catch myself, because sometimes, like, I'm like, and it's like, oh, wait, hold on a second. We've like, I've been here. So what, what was I going through? And what actually got me to, like, let go of that and get back in that empathy, because it actually is what helps guide people on the path to being more themselves, to connecting to themselves, to having a personal practice. So it was just like.Brad Crowell 21:25  Yeah. Anthony was talking about his ego was the thing that brought him to the practice. Because he was like. Lesley Logan 21:31  Which would just be the irony of yoga. Brad Crowell 21:33  Yeah. And I'll tell you, it was actually anger that brought me to the practice and. Lesley Logan 21:39  I do went to yoga with you because I thought you're cute. I mean I was going to yoga already, and I was like, Ookay, I'll go to that class with him, because he's cute.Brad Crowell 21:48  bBut, but I was angry that I couldn't do it, and that was also ego. But like, I was angry. I was angry outside. I was angry at my ex, right? And I was angry that I couldn't figure it out. And I was angry that my I was just angry. And then when I when I knew was that, after I had beat the shit out of myself in a yoga class, I felt better. Like, ironically, you know, and like, if you know, talk about controlling, like I wanted every single answer to every every possible understanding of the movement, you know, and then, and then there was stuff that I was like, couldn't do. And it generally like, ironically, I was flexible, but I wasn't flexible enough in my own mind. And I definitely wasn't strong. And, you know, I think that anger, like, pushed me through the strength training barriers of where I was, like, I need to be able to hold this pose for whatever, 10 seconds, I don't know, like, whatever it was like. And it was like, I mean, I'm glad I didn't hurt myself, to be honest, you know, during it. But it was, you know, it took me a solid six months to enjoy the practice, you know, because I was just frustrated at everything.Lesley Logan 23:04  Yeah, I think, like, had you come to it for a different way, you might, like, it would might have been a different thing, but maybe you didn't, wouldn't have practiced that hard. Like, I think, I think that's what the point is. Like, what if we allowed our journey to whatever it is just be that, I think a lot of people want to change the past. They want, they want it to be a different way that they got into something. I remember, like, how I got into Pilates. I thought it was BS, and I remember not telling anyone that story for years, like I was so embarrassed that I actually thought that that Pilates was a gimmick, you know, I really was. I was like, oh. And then also on top of that, because when I became a Pilates instructor, people, most of the teachers were dancers. So here I was one of the few in my world, not in the world, but in my world, L.A., that was a non-dancer, and I thought it was bullshit, you know, like I was just like, I'm just gonna just, I'm just gonna bend back, I'm in the back, and no one's gonna know. But then I realized, like, actually, like, how I got to Pilates is probably how a lot of people think about Pilates. And what if I actually just, like, lean into the empathy of that, and it might actually allow more people to come to the practice, because then they don't feel stupid or silly or weird for thinking it's, it's, you know, not gonna work, you know? And it found, the more I talked about how I wasn't a dancer, the more teachers were like, I'm not one either. And then made them feel good. And so, like, what if we all just own the story that we have? It might actually make us all have more community and connection to different people.Brad Crowell 24:33  Yeah. I mean, it makes you relatable, you know, makes makes as a teacher, it makes you relatable when you're willing to, you know, share the things that it's I think, you know, there's always over-sharing can be wrong. But like, I think it's hard to know what will be received well. And so I feel like that there's fear there, and that's why you know, you're like, man, I shouldn't share that. But then, like, when you know if and when you do, it's like, oh, you know, like, well, I'm not alone in this, and other people are probably also not sharing, and now they feel permission to, you know, commiserate or connect, or, you know, makes them feel better about themselves, too. So, yeah. Lesley Logan 25:12  Yeah. Love it. Okay, what did you love? Brad Crowell 25:13  Yeah, so I loved this idea of good and bad. You know, he said yoga doesn't actually see things as good and bad. It's not like you have a good practice or a bad practice, or you're a good yogi or a bad yogi, you know. He said that yoga kind of sees things more in the does it work, or is it not working? You know? And he was talking about the specifically, like, when, when we were talking about this, it was more talking about habits. You know, it's like, the habit is there, whether it's a quote, unquote, good habit or a bad habit. You know, we're taking that and setting that aside instead. It's a, you know, how is this habit serving me? Is it, is it working for me, or is it not working for me, right? And specifically you were like, maybe you get frustrated that you sit there and scroll on Instagram all day long, but maybe you can see that as a good thing, because you actually need a moment to to just like, not think, right?Lesley Logan 26:12  Yeah, yeah. We also mean, we talked about, like, some people would say it's bad to drink, but like, if it if, if that drink made you that drink made you relax and connect with your family. Like, is it bad and and I think, like, is it wrong? So I've heard that this before, and a couple different things, obviously, like, there are things that cannot be great for you, but you, the difference is, like, is it serving you? Is it serving you? And it's okay for something to serve you and not serve somebody else. Brad Crowell 26:43  Or what is coming from it that could be serving you, right? Like, it might not be the thing that is serving you like, like the alcohol itself might not be beneficial, but the quality time that you spent with family when consuming the alcohol that is worth doing, right, you know? So, there's, I still, I still love the idea that like everything in moderation, including moderation, you know.Lesley Logan 27:08  Well, I think the point is, because I think about Brene Brown, she's gone in my head a couple times in this conversation, guilt versus shame is her thing, right? Like, I think some people shame themselves. I had a drink last night, versus, like, I spent time with my family and I had a drink, and I love spending time with my family. I don't love I had the drink, but when I had the drink, it let me forget about the work that I had so I could spend time with my family. So I do need to figure out a way to get to forget about work so I can spend time my family. But we don't have to have shame around the drink, because, you know, and I think that's where it's like, we have to be kinder to ourselves. I think people just walk around. I mean, it's on the internet, right? People just shame people all the time. That's bad. That's wrong. You did that wrong. Like, no one is going way to go, like, you know, when's the last time you told a stranger (inaudible). Brad Crowell 28:00  We definitely celebrated with OPC. I was gonna, I was gonna circle this right back around to your Pilates practice or your yoga practice, because when I first got into yoga, that was how I treated myself. I'm not good enough. I'm doing it wrong. I'm not doing it well. It's, it's not good, like I'm not a good yogi. And I was judging myself, but I was angry. I was angry at myself. I was angry at the world, you know, and like, you know, but I knew that, like physically, my body, like you ever felt like, you ever felt like so frustrated you just have to go run? You ever felt like that, where like running is somehow going to like be the thing, I and, like, that was that was like, you know, because you get that endorphins release and all that stuff, and that was what I was looking for without really understanding it, I just knew that I felt better after class, you know, and because I was also more relaxed and, like, my mind wasn't like, freaking out all the time, you know, at that point. But it still took time for me to like, took years for me to stop judging my own practice and like the idea that.Lesley Logan 29:14  But I think going back to like, there's a difference between saying something is bad and to lead to I'm bad, and asking yourself, and if we could just catch ourselves now, because this is why I love this conversation. Is it serving me? If the answer is yes, fuck what people think. If it's a yes, and tomorrow it's a yes, and then the next week, it's a yes, and then next month, it's a no. Then you make a change, but. Brad Crowell 29:44  Sure, you can make a choice. Lesley Logan 29:45  But I think some people are using judgment on good or bad, on things that are serving them, and then they're fucking stuck, like if you had not gone to yoga because I'm bad. It makes me feel like, you know, so I'm not, like, yoga would become the thing that's wrong. And then, like, you know what I mean? So like, is it serving me? It's serving me to go because I'm angry, and I can be angry, and it's serving me, and then all of a sudden, the anger at yoga no longer served you, and you let it go. So I think, like, there's a couple different ways to see this. Brad Crowell 30:20  Or the anger at me is no longer serving me. Lesley Logan 30:22  Yeah, so you had to let it go. So I think, what if we could all stop? If you and this is something we can catch ourselves doing here at this household, you and me together, but also, like our coworkers, your friends, like, if you go, oh, I know it's bad that I do this, hit, pull, that rubber band. Is it serving me, that I do this, right? Is it serving me that I do this? And if you can honestly say yes, then let the fucking guilt go, because it's not helping you. Brad Crowell 30:48  You said pull that rubber band? Lesley Logan 30:50  You know, you have a rubber band on your wrist. Brad Crowell 30:52  Yeah, yeah. Snap it. Lesley Logan 30:53  Snap it. Brad Crowell 30:54  Like, hit the reset button. Yeah, you know. And, and it's, you know, that he took it a little bit differently in the conversation, because he's, you know, he was talking about all things serve a purpose, even if we look at it and say that's bad, you know? Because, you know, he said we wouldn't know love without hate, joy without pain. Lesley Logan 31:18  I can think of a few people that I could still think the world's a better place if they weren't in it. I'm just gonna say, we all know, but like, I get the point.Brad Crowell 31:27  Perspective, right? It allows us to actually understand what we have in our world that is amazing, you know, because we can also see, oh, damn, I definitely that is not amazing over there. You know? You know that that's not giving that's not that is not working. That would not work for me, right? I mean, yeah, that wouldn't work for me. So, you know, it's a, he said, it's a balance, you know, and it's and each scenario you find yourself in, you can find that balance between, you know, is it working for me or not working for me? Or is it the good and the bad? You know, how can it be working for you? Lesley Logan 32:04  I mean, you know, I love it because, like BJ Fogg always said, there's no such thing as bad habit. Every habit you have is serving some function. Now, there might be habits you don't like or are no longer serving you, but they're a habit. But there, you cannot say there's a bad habit, because it is providing something in your brain that's kicking off a dopamine otherwise your brain wouldn't seek doing it.Brad Crowell 32:24  Right. Yeah, yeah. I always thought about that too with, like, food, you know, there's something, even if it's like, quote, unquote, bad habit of, like, eating all the time, or, like, maybe you have, like, a consistent, like, I eat late, or whatever, and you know that it's like, not physically helping you. There's still something in your head that's like, I need that thing, whatever that thing is, you know, I need that glass of orange juice, you know, I need the sugar, you know. Lesley Logan 32:49  Well, because it could be, it brings re lief, right? It's distraction, it might calm you down. There's so many different things that our habits do. So if there's something that you feel no longer serves a purpose in your life, right, you have to explore that and not judge that. I'm going to do a whole series on habits, actually, so we can continue this conversation on this like it's now an eight episode series I'm going to do about habits. Brad Crowell 33:19  Really? Lesley Logan 33:19  Oh, Brad has no idea. Brad Crowell 33:20  What? Tell me more. Lesley Logan 33:22  Yeah, oh, my God, I'm doing a whole episode, a whole series on my. Brad Crowell 33:25  On where? Lesley Logan 33:26  On the pod. I'm just taking over and not interviewing people for a few weeks. And I'm gonna tell you how to fucking do a habit. And we're also talking about unraveling habits that no longer serve you. Brad Crowell 33:35  All right, you heard it here first, y'all, surprise. Lesley Logan 33:37  So the thing the homework from this episode is just start taking notice of things, you know, the habits you have, the routines you have that no longer serve you. And we can bring that to the series, which will come out, I think it's going to come out either in December or January, so.Brad Crowell 33:55  Cool. All right, that's really fun. We'll stick around. We'll be right back. We're going to dig into those Be It Action Items that you covered with Anthony, which were also fantastic. So yeah, stick around we'll be right back. Brad Crowell 34:07  Welcome back. Let's dig into those Be It Action Items that you had.Lesley Logan 34:13  You guys, I am notorious, like, I'm notorious, like, yeah, I'm ready. And then I just looked down, and he's like, just wants me to look at the camera when he says welcome back. So I'm sorry, everyone here we are. Welcome back. Brad Crowell 34:24  Welcome back. Lesley Logan 34:24  Say it with him. What bold, ex, you're not gonna say it with me? What bold, executable, intrinsic or targetedBrad Crowell 34:31  Action items can we take away from your convo with Anthony Benenati?Lesley Logan 34:35  Just so you know, I always fade out, even when you sing Happy Birthday, because I can't. I don't like how I sound. Okay. I'm going first, babe, here we go. I'm taking away because I there's just too many things I loved. So he said, he states that it's important that we actually we focus on three things when you want to do things that you want to do. So first of all, to do anything you want to do, you have to actually have the desire to do it. If you don't have the desire to do it, you won't put the effort forward. Has anyone ever said like, oh, I'm gonna I'm gonna learn Spanish, and then you don't learn Spanish. So you have to have the desire to do it. This is, we're gonna talk about this in the Habit Series. I love it. Knowledge. You have to learn to do it. He actually said just doing something without knowing how to do it can cause you harm. This is very true. You have to actually learn how to do it. I'm actually trying to learn how to do tarot, because I like want to, we have a Ttarot episode coming out, and I like, want to understand how to like, do it better. And I want a tarot is a personal relationship with yourself. It's asking yourself questions. And I want to have, I don't want to do it wrong. I want to have a really good understanding of it before I start journaling and pulling cards. And really like doing it for real. And then third is action. Then you simply have to do it. But beyond doing it just once, you must commit to doing over and over and over again to create meaningful change. And I love this so much. We have to be okay with being beginners, are we okay for having, like, being on a journey of learning, and then you just keep doing it. And it's really amazing how when you do that, it's like there's deeper levels of everything that we do, and it's just so good. I am loving, I love this, love, I love this triad. Okay, Brad.Brad Crowell 36:12  Yeah, I think that that idea of desire, knowledge and action is so obvious, but we often will skip one of the steps. Lesley Logan 36:24  Sometimes people skip desire. Brad Crowell 36:26  That's what I'm saying. Lesley Logan 36:27  It's terrible, like, that's a bad one. Brad Crowell 36:28  I'm doing it because I have to, or I'm doing it for somebody else, but really, you don't fucking want to, and so it actually sets you up to fail from the gate, right? Because what's gonna happen, you're gonna you're gonna do it, and it's gonna build frustration or resentment, you know, or like you mentioned with step two, if you skip knowledge, you could hurt yourself. And then, you know, there's step three, which is actually being consistent with it. You can have the desire to learn. You could even learn how to do it. But then if you don't do it.Lesley Logan 37:03  Right, right, because you, because some people won't do things because they're they're too new at it, you know. Okay, your Be It Action Items, your takeaways.Brad Crowell 37:11  Okay, so he was talking about being careful with language, and you mentioned this too, right? How your body actually learns, your body responds to the way that you think and the things that you say impact, you know, like, what you think is what you're going to say, and what you think your body is also going to do. Lesley Logan 37:32  Your body's not going to go rogue on you.Brad Crowell 37:34  Right. So, for example, you were talking about, you know, oh, I'm never, I never lose weight, or I'm never gonna get stronger or, you know, or I was thinking about just this, just the other day, I had somebody come, you know, we had somebody come to our place, and we were just taking photos, and the person said, oh, no, no, no, no, no, that's my bad side. And then shifted to the other side of the photo so they could get it. And I was like, that's like, I mean, of course, we've all heard that and like, it sounds like so Hollywood, but it's also, you know, like, that's a shame.Lesley Logan 38:13  Well, also, because you it just you have confirmation bias. You actually always see the thing that you're saying is bad, but your body listens. If you say you have a weak arm, your body's not gonna go let me show you how strong I am. No, it's just not gonna happen, and you'll treat it that way. So I really, I really think language, being careful with it, is something we could all pay attention to.Brad Crowell 38:34  Yeah and then the other side of it, too is let's say you have the desire and the action, the knowledge, I mean, and you're putting it into action, the way that you put it into action today might be different than the way you put it into action yesterday, right? And I think I had, especially with my yoga practice, never fully embraced this idea, ever. So for 10 years, I was like, I can always go further than I did the day before. That's just the way I always looked at it. It wasn't until I started lifting weights that I truly looked at it like, I just can't today, whatever, whatever, like, like, if last week I did 150 pounds, I just feel like, wimpy today, I'm not going to be able to do it and I and I could actually hurt myself.Lesley Logan 39:28  Yeah, that's why my trainer has me on a deload week because it's important for your central nervous system to, like, think things are a little easier. Can't always be building, building, building. You have to calm it down, yeah, so it's, it's so true, like our the way we approach things has to be different if we're listening to our body. Brad Crowell 39:47  Yeah and, you know, so yeah, listening to your body, being careful with your language, being willing to, being willing to, not, you know, whatever, reach the goal or hit the to be the epitome of the pose or, you know, in our in my case, it was often handstand, you know, when it was yoga, or for lifters, it's like, I gotta hit my max. Last max was, you know, this, so I gotta hit, I gotta at least hit that and then more, right, like, being willing to be like, okay, maybe right now it's okay if it's different, you know.Lesley Logan 40:24  Yeah, it's interesting how, like, some of those things, just you'd learn with age, but also.Brad Crowell 40:27  I think with age and also, like death. I never felt like I was gonna hurt myself in yoga. I never felt like I could crush my skull. Like, if you're benching and you have too much weight, your body could slip and fail, and you could have 150 pounds crashing on your body like, that was, that was the moment where I was like, oh, okay. Lesley Logan 40:47  So there it is, Anthony. We should have just probably go how to teach Brad he could have died, get a fucking broken his neck. Oh, my God. Okay, now we know. Well, I.Brad Crowell 40:59  But also that's translated, you know, like, I it took me an opportunity to learn, and then, you know, now, when I'm going back into my yoga practice, it's, doesn't have to be like, to the nth degree every single time.Lesley Logan 41:12  Yeah, I just show up. Like, that's where I'm at. I'm like, I'm really enjoying just showing up. So glad I get to do that. I'm like, I'm here today.Brad Crowell 41:20  I also feel a lot stronger, too, and less flexible. And I acknowledge that. Lesley Logan 41:25  You're no longer a shark boy. Brad Crowell 41:26  No. I mean, I don't think so. I'm still flexible, but I'm not like I was like before. Lesley Logan 41:31  You have mobility. Brad Crowell 41:32  Yeah, but I could put my foot behind my neck not in front of my head.Lesley Logan 41:35  I know, but you have but we need strength as we get older, it's really fucking hard to put it on. Anyways, I just this whole episode has so many gems I really enjoyed, like, reliving it. I think it's one that's worth going back to. And I think it's got, it's got a takeaway you might listen to differently each time you hear it. So, listen to it again. And I'm Lesley Logan. Brad Crowell 41:57  And I'm Brad Crowell. Lesley Logan 41:58  Thanks for listening. I want to hear reviews. I want to hear takeaways. I want your fucking questions. Send it in to beitpod.com/questions, also your wins. I want your wins. I want a lot. Okay, I want a lot. Brad Crowell 42:09  Yeah.

Artificial light detected on 3I Atlas?? https://youtu.be/NPEsXoYHbV4?si=l0IbtqvDcdGFoDzz&t=186 Meet Britain's real-life SUPERVILLAIN: Eccentric millionaire lives in a bunker beneath a Cold War radar - and is convinced he's going to find UFOs https://www.dailymail.co.uk/sciencetech/article-14993489/Britains-real-life-SUPERVILLAIN-millionaire.html 00:00:00 – Alex Jones Mayhem & Comet Chaos The show opens with chaos and laughs, featuring clips from Alex Jones—wild rants, offbeat jokes, and absurd statements. The crew teases upcoming topics, including a UK millionaire building a UFO-hunting base. They also preview headlines about comets possibly threatening Earth and eccentric billionaires preparing bunkers. 00:10:00 – InfoWars on the Auction Block A deep dive into the legal saga of Alex Jones and InfoWars. A judge rules that InfoWars' assets can be sold off to help pay the billion-dollar judgment owed to Sandy Hook families. The team discusses the failed auction attempt involving The Onion and speculates on who might try to buy InfoWars next—perhaps Steve Bannon or Roger Stone. 00:20:00 – Alien Comet Incoming? Attention shifts to Comet 3I/Atlas, a fast-approaching object potentially under intelligent control. Harvard's Avi Loeb believes it may be emitting its own light, indicating it's artificial. The crew plays a clip from “Angry Astronaut,” who argues the object's brightness defies explanation unless it's alien tech. They joke about preparing for impact and speculate whether it's a derelict or generational alien ship. 00:30:00 – Eccentric Bunker Billionaire The spotlight turns to Dr. William Sachiti, a British-Zimbabwean millionaire who lives in a Cold War radar bunker in Norfolk. He's using AI and old military tech to build a UFO-detecting system. With robotic assistants and radar experiments, he's part Tony Stark, part Bond villain. The crew jokes about his lifestyle, isolation, and paranoid security problems. 00:40:00 – AJ-AI and Trump's Anklegate Discussion turns to creating an AI trained on Alex Jones transcripts—"AJ AI." They brainstorm using it for content and entertainment. Meanwhile, Trump's recent comments about heaven spark health concerns. Photos of his “massive ankles” go viral, and his walking pattern is dissected like a Zapruder film. They play a clip of Trump speaking ambiguously about mortality. 00:50:00 – Hologram Cops & Toilet Tech South Korea's use of holographic police in parks leads to Blade Runner comparisons and concern over creepy AI surveillance. The hosts mock the “ghost cop” concept. Meanwhile, AI's role in global government expands: Albania is considering a ministry fully run by AI to fight corruption. 01:00:00 – Hitchbot Murder & AI Nation-State Remember Hitchbot? The robot hitchhiker who was murdered in Philly. The team reminisces on AI's grim fate when let loose in the real world. South Korea's hologram cop strategy is seen as ineffective for high-crime US cities. The hosts sarcastically pitch millions of hologram cops for America. More on Albania's AI government idea and potential pitfalls of AI corruption. 01:10:00 – Slang Woes & Reverse-Engineered UFOs The Cambridge Dictionary adds “skibidi,” “tradwife,” and “delulu,” triggering a rant about internet slang invading the lexicon. Then, the crew discusses a CEO claiming to reverse-engineer alien materials. He describes advanced tech using “composite conductors” and scalar radiation to explain how triangular craft cloak themselves. 01:20:00 – UFO Tech & Slide Rescue Drama More from the UFO CEO: strange materials allow for incredible feats like visual cloaking. Then, levity returns with the story of a man stuck in a playground slide. It takes a full emergency response to extract him, drawing parallels to Homer Simpson. The incident goes viral. 01:30:00 – AI in Power, Domino's Navy, and Skibidi Lore Albania may let AI run ministries. Domino's tests a submarine pizza delivery service in Loch Ness, which fools people into thinking Nessie has returned. There's also debate about the origin of “skibidi” and whether it's a legit cultural trend or just online nonsense. 01:40:00 – Hollow Cops & Dumb Bikes The episode ends with Domino's failed “pothole-proof” bikes—really just basic mountain bikes—and more jokes about hollow cops and pizza submarines. They mock the PR stunts and close out laughing at Domino's overhyped marketing. 01:50:00 – McDonald's Cybersecurity Reality Check The crew turns to cybersecurity, focusing on how even massive corporations like McDonald's seem to operate on weak, outsourced, or patchwork systems. Despite vast resources, global companies often lack robust internal protections. The team speculates that poor systems architecture and design are widespread, and not unique to McDonald's.

00:00:00 – Drugs, Dumb Teen Stories & a “Butt-Chugging” PSA Loose opener about uppers vs. downers, teenage Ritalin myths, oxygen-deprivation “games,” and the show's long-running warning about dangerous alcohol stunts—then a pivot toward news. 00:10:00 – Robot Games: Toddlers Today, Terminators Tomorrow China launches the first Humanoid Robot Games: 500+ bots on 280 teams from 16 countries compete in 26 events from soccer and boxing to medicine sorting and cleaning. Hosts riff on elder-care “assistant” robots and the dystopian vibes. 00:20:00 – From Robot Olympics to Robot Allowance Speculation on “AI crypto allowances” to motivate humanoids, ED-209 jokes, and the idea of parallel “janitor Olympics.” The convo begins drifting toward brain-computer interfaces. 00:30:00 – BCI “Password” Guards Your Thoughts (Sort of) Discussion of a mind-reading brain implant that only decodes when you think a preset keyword; claims of ~74% accuracy on imagined sentences and even silent counting, with big privacy worries baked in. 00:40:00 – Death Valley Heat & the Federal Urine Chart Why people still flock to Death Valley in killer temps, and the National Park Service's bathroom-posted urine-color chart for hydration—equal parts useful and darkly funny. 00:50:00 – Ouija Study Says Fear = Belief; Mike Says “Careful, Portals” A field experiment finds believers report anxiety and “supernatural” perceptions using the board, skeptics don't—researchers call the board harmless. Mike pushes back: belief is the conduit; mirrors are “portals,” so don't play around. 01:00:00 – Capitol Hill UFO Chat: Four Species? Show Us the Receipts Recap of an interview about alleged reptilian, insectoid, grey, and other entities discussed around Congress; hosts want evidence levels and, most of all, any real propulsion breakthroughs shared with the public. 01:10:00 – Alien Taxonomy & the Soul-in-the-Simulation Theory From Jason-Giorgiani-style categories (reptilians, greys, djinn, Nordics, machine/AI entities) to the idea we're in a simulation—entities as “admins” fascinated by human souls; cycles of humans merging with AI and losing humanity. 01:20:00 – Caller: Anchorage Putin–Trump Summit, Ukraine, & the P-Jar Bit A listener in Alaska paints the scene around a Putin/Trump visit—overflows in dorms, air-show speculation, then a hot take on the Ukraine front. Comic detour: “presidential hydration” and a press-conference pee-jar gag. 01:30:00 – Comet ATLAS Omens & Starbucksed Offices Farmer Matt calls in with a spooky read on Comet ATLAS 2025 (bad omens, memory weirdness). Then: South Korea's Starbucks asks customers to stop hauling in desktop rigs and printers as cafés morph into makeshift offices. 01:40:00 – Café Countermeasures → No Outlets for You More on Korean cafés limiting stays to two hours and cutting power outlets; running jokes about dragging in gas generators. The show then edges toward a bigger AI story. 01:50:00 – Zuck, Torrents & an Ohio No-Show Registry Allegations that Meta pirated and even seeded adult videos to train AI models lead to ribbing of “Mark Z.” Then a local Ohio bill would track interview no-shows—hosts debate accountability vs. blacklisting. 02:00:00 – Outro: Merch Woes & Pizza Sign-Off Wrap-up housekeeping (merch store troubles), then the classic “take care of yourself and each other”—and a quick “I'm outside the control room eating a piece of pizza” fade-out.

Dick's claims of parallel world memories. 00:30:00 – Past Life Memory Study Covers a Portuguese-led study on adults claiming past life memories, noting most were female and memories often linked to phobias or trauma. Findings show correlations with mental health issues like PTSD. Review of related academic literature on reincarnation and between-life memories. 00:40:00 – Mark Maron Rant & Lou Elizondo Restaurant Mark Maron critiques comedians for repetitive “anti-woke” material and conflating cultural pushback with censorship, prompting debate on actual government-linked online suppression. Shift to news that UFO figure Lou Elizondo opened a WWII-themed restaurant in Buffalo, Wyoming. 00:50:00 – Bill Gates' Carbon Butter & Odd Headlines Examines a Bill Gates–backed company making butter from captured carbon and hydrogen, raising skepticism about nutrition and safety.

Goofing on “unhappy meal” returns, Alex Jones ringtones, and printer‑jam life while slogging through emails. 02:00:00 – Sign‑Off Shenanigans Quick bits on blue‑light glasses, a listener planning a “Potent Trump” report, and one last drop of the recurring “I'm just a big ol' fat woman” stinger before the classic OBDM wrap: “keep watching the skies,” take care of each other, and we're out.   Copyright Disclaimer Under Section 107 of the Copyright Act 1976, allowance is made for "fair use" for purposes such as criticism, comment, news reporting, teaching, scholarship, and research ▀▄▀▄▀ CONTACT LINKS ▀▄▀▄▀ ► Phone: 614-388-9109 ► Skype: ourbigdumbmouth ► Website: http://obdmpod.com ► Twitch: https://www.twitch.tv/obdmpod ► Full Videos at Odysee: https://odysee.com/@obdm:0 ► Twitter: https://twitter.com/obdmpod ► Instagram: obdmpod ► Email: ourbigdumbmouth at gmail ► RSS: http://ourbigdumbmouth.libsyn.com/rss ► iTunes: https://itunes.apple.com/us/podcast/our-big-dumb-mouth/id261189509?mt=2  

2025 Detroit Lions Halfway Through Preseason: Practice Takeaways & Depth Chart Shifts With three days of joint practices in the books and their third preseason game looming against the Miami Dolphins, the Detroit Lions are striking the right balance between refinement and evaluation. In this episode of the Detroit Lions Podcast, titled “2025 Detroit Lions Halfway Through Preseason,” we break down key developments—from standout performances in joint workouts to the Detroit Lions depth chart dynamics shaping up as Training Camp 2025 winds down. Amon‑Ra St. Brown has been nothing short of spectacular. During joint sessions against the Dolphins, he repeatedly outmatched defenders with crisp routes and reliable hands. He opened one-on-one drills with a smooth 40-yard touchdown and continued to dominate in the red zone with back-to-back scores. Teammates and analysts have labeled him a “matchup nightmare”. Meanwhile, “Jamo”, a.k.a. Jamison Williams, continues to stand out this summer as well, showing explosive playmaking ability and drawing that supportive nod of confidence from his teammates and opposing coaches. Detroit's defense looked dominant, holding Miami scoreless over nine red zone snaps and stifling drives with relentless pressure and tight coverage. Players like Aidan Hutchinson, Jack Campbell, and Myles Adams delivered impact—supporting the notion that the defense remains a group to fear. Injuries are reshaping the depth chart: Cornerback Dicaprio Bootle and OL Keaton Sutherland have been placed on IR, prompting the Lions to add cornerback Allan George and offensive lineman Zack Johnson for depth ahead of their next preseason appearance. As Detroit Lions players to watch, keep an eye on Jamo continuing to carve his path, Amon‑Ra sustaining his elite form, and the young defenders who are quietly rising. The adjustment to new coaches and schemes, particularly with OC John Morton in place, has been noticeable, though St. Brown expressed the offense still has growing pains. Looking ahead, the upcoming game against Miami isn't just another preseason contest—it's another chance to redefine pecking order on the Detroit Lions depth chart before the regular season drops. With the roster still evolving, every rep counts. Tune in to this week's episode of the Detroit Lions Podcast as we break down the pressure points, breakout candidates, and the shifting landscape of Detroit Lions preseason football. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5vJsxBbaijs Let us know what you think about the show by commenting in the podcast thread in the subreddit, or by leaving us a voice mail message via Skype at: Detroit Lions Podcast  Your input will help make the show better, and if you leave us a message on Skype, you just might be featured in an upcoming podcast!
