Veress Kinga a MNMKK Magyar Kereskedelmi és Vendéglátóipari Múzeum főmuzeológusa a „Legyen ünnep a földön! – Retró teleink világa” című különleges szabadtéri tárlatról beszél, amely a Várkert Bazár Glorietthez vezető rámpáján látható. A Várkapitányság és a MNMKK Magyar Kereskedelmi és Vendéglátóipari Múzeum közös kiállítása egészen 2026 elejéig várja a látogatókat, és ingyenesen tekinthető meg. A szabadtéri tárlat tizenhat kivilágítható installációs elemen keresztül idézi meg az 1970-es és 80-as évek téli ünnepeinek hangulatát – a Télapó-várást, a fenyőünnepre készülődést, a szilveszteri házibulik vidámságát és a farsangi felvonulások derűjét.A kiállítás kurátorai, Veress Kinga és Jenei Gabriella a korszak tipikus ünnepi kellékeivel és ikonikus tárgyaival mesélnek arról, hogyan próbálta a Kádár-korszak világi, derűs eseménnyé formálni a hagyományosan vallási gyökerű ünnepeket. A cél az volt, hogy az emberek a közös élményben találjanak örömet, még akkor is, ha a bőség csak a kirakatokban létezett. A tárlat a múzeum gazdag gyűjteményéből válogatott plakátokat, árucédulákat, képeslapokat, játékokat és kártyanaptárakat mutat be. Ezek a tárgyak megidézik a korszak vizuális világát, amikor a reklámok és az üzletek kirakatai a hiánygazdaság közepette is a bőség ígéretét hirdetik. Kinga nem titkolja, hogy a kiállítás célja kettős: a régi idők tanúi számára emlékidézés, a fiatalabb generációnak pedig időutazás. A gömbdíszek, a Remoskában készült karácsonyi menü, a jellegzetes zselés szaloncukor vagy a kristálytálak mind olyan emlékek, amelyek a kor ünnepi hangulatát ma is életre hívják. A szabadtéri térben a látogatók egyszerre élhetik át a nosztalgia és a felfedezés élményét: a fények, a tárgyak és a plakátok nemcsak vizuális, hanem érzelmi időutazást is kínálnak. A tárlat szellemisége szerint az ünnep mindig ott születik, ahol van közösség, derű és emberi találkozás – akár a múltban, akár a jelenben. A retró korszak történetei ma már kulturális örökségként élnek tovább. A kiállítás bemutatja, hogyan lehetett boldognak maradni akkor is, amikor minden hiányzott – kivéve az emberi derűt.A Sláger FM-en minden este 22 órakor a kultúráé a főszerep S. Miller András az egyik oldalon, a másikon pedig a térség kiemelkedő színházi kulturális, zenei szcena résztvevői Egy óra Budapest és Pest megye aktuális kult történeteivel.

Eszterhai Katalin író és Lajtai György fotóművész, tizenkétszer Emmy-díjra jelölt operatőr évtizedek óta Kanadában élnek, mégis minden munkájukkal a magyar kultúra iránti hűségüket bizonyítják. A beszélgetés egy különleges művészházaspár történetét mutatja meg, akik 42 éve élnek és alkotnak együtt, szavakban és fényekben, könyvben és fotóban. Eszterhai Katalin szavai szerint „ő szavakkal fest, György pedig fénnyel”, és ez a kettősség a mai napig közös erőforrásuk. Katalin legújabb kötete, a Gondolatok szívnek és léleknek, két év munkájának gyümölcse, amelyben több száz rövid esszé és elmélkedés olvasható az emberi kapcsolatok, a szeretet és a hit megtartó erejéről. „Az emberek jórésze nem rossz, csak fáradt” – mondja, és hisz abban, hogy mindenkinek szüksége van egy kézre, egy szóra, egy ölelésre, ami emlékezteti arra, hogy értékes. György közben Székesfehérváron mutatja be új kiállítását, amely január közepéig látogatható a Vörösmarty Társaság Kossuth utcai galériájában, majd februártól Budapesten, az Aranytíz Kultúrházban lesz látható. A fotók dokumentálás helyett érzéseket közvetítenek – a művész szavaival élve „a képek választják ki őt, és nem fordítva”. A digitális technika szabadságát a klasszikus látásmóddal ötvözi, képei egyszerre fotográfiák és festmények. A beszélgetésben természetesen szóba kerültek György nemzetközi filmes sikerei is. A művész ugyanis operatőrként is hosszú évek óta dolgozik kanadai és amerikai produkciókban, és tizenkétszer jelölték Emmy-díjra. Katalinnal a „Majdnem Eszterházy” című regény új, javított kiadásáról is beszélünk, amelyből az elmúlt években monodráma is született, Ballér Bianka székesfehérvári színművész főszereplésével. A darabot a Vörösmarty Színház mutatta be, a történet pedig a női sors, a hit és a kitartás szívbemarkoló példázata. Katalin és György története a hitről, az alkotásról és az összetartozásról szól. Amellett, hogy egymás múzsái, közben valódi alkotótársak is. „A két szárny biztosítja, hogy az utunk sima legyen fölfelé” – mondják mosolyogva, és az ember elhiszi nekik, hogy ez így is van.A Sláger FM-en minden este 22 órakor a kultúráé a főszerep S.

Kuizs Lilla érkezik a Semmi szédítő magasság című graphic novel megjelenése kapcsán érkezett a Sláger KULT-ba, egy teljes egészében kézzel rajzolt, személyes hangú képregényről, amely egy egész generáció kollektív emlékezetét idézi meg. A Semmi szédítő magasság egy fiatal művészeti egyetemista, Matilda történetén keresztül eleveníti meg a kétezres évek elejének vibráló Budapestjét. A Zöld Pardon, a Corvintető, a Kultiplex, a Merlin, a Szimpla világa, az éjszakai 4 6-os villamos, a hajnalig tartó beszélgetések és a koncertélmények adják a történet hátterét. Aki ebben az időszakban volt fiatal, az azonnal ráismer erre a hangulatra, a szabadságra, a bizonytalanságra és az önkeresésre. Lilla saját élményeiből építkezik, Matilda az alkotó alteregója, egy olyan figura, akinek a történetén keresztül kimondhatók azok a kérdések, félelmek és vágyak, amelyekkel egy egész generáció szembesül. A graphic novel egy valóságon alapuló fikció, ahol a helyszínek és az események ismerősek, a szereplők mégis rajzolt alakok, akik egyszerre személyesek és univerzálisak. A történet a felnövés folyamatáról mesél. Vidékről Budapestre költözés, az egyetemista lét szabadsága, a művészvilágba való belépés izgalma, a családi konfliktusok, a szerelmi csalódások és az elismerés keresése mind részei Matilda útjának. A könyv terápiaként is működik, rajzolt formában segít feldolgozni azokat az élményeket, amelyek sokáig kimondatlanok maradnak. A cím egy 30Y dalra utal, és pontosan megragadja azt a korszakot, amikor az élet ritkán mutat szélsőségeket. A mindennapok nem grandiózusak, de telítettek élményekkel. A ZP-s koncertek, a Corvin Tetős éjszakák, a romkocsmák füstös tere, a reggeli előadások előtti kávék adják azt a szabadságérzést, amelyben a fiatalok lassan felnőtté válnak. A képregény Magyarországon egyre fontosabb műfajjá. A graphic novel egyszerre könnyen befogadható és tartalmilag mély, különösen a fiatalabb generáció számára. A női nézőpont pedig ritka és erős hang ebben a formában.A Semmi szédítő magasság megtalálható a könyvesboltok polcain, valamint online felületeken is. Ez a könyv egy személyes és szerethető felnövéstörténet, válasz arra, hogy mit keresnek és mit hiányolnak ma a milleniálok, és hogyan lehet rajzokkal mesélni barátságról, művészetről, szerelemről és szabadságról.A Sláger FM-en minden este 22 órakor a kultúráé a főszerep S.

Varga Erika nemzetközi elsősegélynyújtás oktató, a Defibrillátor Plusz ügyvezetője tizenöt éve tanítja a gyerekeket és felnőtteket életet menteni. Karácsony estéjén, amikor minden a szeretetről, az odafigyelésről és a családról szól, Erika arról beszél, hogy az igazi ajándék a felkészültség. „Fontos, hogy tudjuk, mit kell tennünk, ha baj van, mert az élet legváratlanabb pillanataiban nem a pánik, hanem a tudás ment életet.” A családi elsősegélynyújtás oktatások egyre népszerűbbek, ahol már az óvodás korosztály is megtanulja, hogyan hívjon segítséget, mit tegyen, ha valaki elájul, félrenyel vagy rosszul lesz. Erika szerint egy tízéves gyerek is képes életben tartani egy felnőttet, ha tudja, mit kell tennie újraélesztéskor. „A gyerekek mindig figyelnek, még akkor is, ha úgy tűnik, mintha nem tennék. És ha eljön a pillanat, ők az elsők, akik lépnek.” A beszélgetésben elhangzik az is, hogy eddig közel tizenkétezer embernek mutatták meg a segítségnyújtás alapjait. A csapat célja, hogy az elsősegély az iskolai oktatás része legyen. „Akár a testnevelésórákba is beépíthetnénk a kétperces mellkaskompressziót – hiszen ez is mozgás, de közben életeket ment” – mondja Erika. A karácsony üzenetét is elhozta: „Figyeljünk magunkra és egymásra. Ne csak az ünnepen, hanem mindig. Ne terheljük túl a testünket, igyunk elég folyadékot, és ne várjuk meg, amíg baj lesz. Menjünk el szűrésre, kérjünk tanácsot, tanuljuk meg a segítségnyújtást. Mert az élet minden pillanata ajándék.” A Defibrillátor Plusz karácsonyra egy különleges dalt is készített. A videó Facebook-oldalukon látható, üzenete pedig nagyon nemes: ajándékozzunk egymásnak biztonságot.Erika 2026 első napján újra visszatér a Sláger KULT-ba, hogy az új év kezdetén a tudatosságról, a testi-lelki felkészültségről és az egészség megőrzésének mindennapi gyakorlatáról beszéljen.A Sláger FM-en minden este 22 órakor a kultúráé a főszerep S.

Dr. Szalay Zsolt Ph.D., tanszékvezető, egyetemi docens, a Budapesti Műszaki és Gazdaságtudományi Egyetem Gépjárműtechnológiai Tanszékének vezetője. A beszélgetés apropója a jövő közlekedése, amelyben a mesterséges intelligencia, az önvezető rendszerek és az adatalapú döntések már nem a jövő, hanem a jelen valósága. Szalay Zsolt és kutatócsoportja olyan fejlesztéseken dolgozik, amelyek szó szerint újraértelmezik az autóvezetés fogalmát. A tanszéken született meg az a világszabadalom, amely lehetővé teszi, hogy egy jármű emberi beavatkozás nélkül is irányítható maradjon, még akkor is, ha elveszíti a tapadást. A rendszer képes önállóan korrigálni a mozgást, sőt, extrém helyzetekben, akár megcsúszás vagy driftelés közben is stabil pályán tartani az autót. A fejlesztés lényege, hogy az algoritmus előbb reagál, mint ahogy az ember felismerné a veszélyt, így menthet életeket ott, ahol a reflexek már nem elegendők. A kutatócsoport célja, hogy a közúti biztonság ne csak az új, intelligens járművek privilégiuma legyen. A fejlesztések olyan kiegészítő rendszerekre épülnek, amelyek a régebbi autók számára is elérhetővé teszik a digitális technológia védelmét. A beszélgetésben szó esik az M1–M7 bevezető szakaszán megvalósuló, nagyszabású kutatási programról is, ahol az út mentén telepített szenzorok, kamerák, radarok és lidarok centiméter pontos digitális modellt készítenek a forgalomról. Ez a valós idejű adatáramlás lehetővé teszi, hogy az autók és a közlekedési infrastruktúra egymással kommunikáljanak, és előre jelezzék a kritikus helyzeteket. Dr. Szalay Zsolt szerint a közlekedés jövője nemcsak technológiai kérdés, hanem szemléletváltás is. A cél, hogy az ember és a gép közötti együttműködés biztonságos, kiszámítható és kölcsönös bizalmon alapuló rendszerként működjön. „A technológia értelme akkor van, ha az emberért dolgozik, és nem helyette” – fogalmazza meg hitvallását. A magyar mérnöki tudás és a műegyetemi háttér világszinten is komoly visszhangot kapott: a fejlesztéseket több nemzetközi labor követi figyelemmel, és több autóipari partnerrel is együttműködés zajlik.A Sláger FM-en minden este 22 órakor a kultúráé a főszerep S.

Danyi Lőrinc a 100 Tagú Cigányzenekar elnöke az év éve egyik legfontosabb eseményéről, az előszilveszteri Zene és Bor Gálaestről beszél.A nagy múltú zenekar idén ünnepli fennállásának 40. évfordulóját, és ezt az évet egy igazán méltó, nagyszabású koncert zárja december 30-án a Budapest Kongresszusi Központban. Ez az este egyszerre jubileum, hagyomány és ünnep, hiszen a zenekar immár 29. alkalommal rendezi meg ezt a különleges gálaestet, amely a közönség számára minden évben kiemelt találkozási pont. Lőrinc elárulja, hogy ez az alkalom a zenekar életében mindig többet jelent egy koncertnél. A műsor összeállítása tudatos, figyelembe veszi a hazai és a nemzetközi közönséget is, hiszen az esten rendszeresen jelen vannak külföldi vendégek. A programban a hagyományos cigányzene, a nagy klasszikusok és az újdonságok is helyet kapnak, valamint vendégművészek is színpadra lépnek, köztük operetténekesek. A gálaest egyik különlegessége, hogy a zenekar egy ikonikus feldolgozással is készül, a Queen Bohemian Rhapsody című dala csendül fel a zenekar egyedi hangszerelésében. A több mint száz zenész együttműködése, a vonós hangzás ereje és a színpadi látvány olyan atmoszférát teremt, amely már az első hang megszólalása előtt magával ragadja a közönséget. A beszélgetés során szó esik arról is, mit jelent ma egy ilyen nagy létszámú együttes élén állni. A mindennapi próbák, a szervezési és gazdasági felelősség, a fiatal tehetségek bevonása és a hagyomány folyamatos megújítása mind része annak a munkának, amely a színpadon láthatatlan, mégis elengedhetetlen. A 100 Tagú Cigányzenekar ma is élő közösség, ahol a fiatal zenészek számára rang és lehetőség a tagság, a közönség számára pedig garancia a minőségre.A Sláger FM-en minden este 22 órakor a kultúráé a főszerep S.

Ke Slámově louži se váže řada pověstí. Jedna z nich vypráví o tom, že při rychlé jízdě z kopce vletěl do bažiny s vozem naloženým slámou mladý sedlák od Konice. Koně se mu podařilo vypřáhnout a zachránit, vůz nikoli. Sláma pak plavala ještě dlouho po hladině, proto se místu začalo říkat „Slámová louže“ nebo „Slámovka“.
TEMPO DE REFLETIR 01626 – 27 de dezembro de 2025 Provérbios 28:9 – Se alguém se recusa a ouvir a lei, até suas orações serão detestáveis. As Escrituras nos dizem que um dos resultados da desobediência é que nossas orações não serão ouvidas. A palavra “detestável” significa odioso ou abominável, que inspira aversão. Ninguém deseja que Deus veja suas orações dessa forma, não é mesmo? É importante pedir sempre a Deus que Ele nos mostre o que deseja que façamos. Mesmo quando pensamos que estamos fazendo tudo certo, é sempre bom orar: “Senhor, mostra-me qualquer ponto em que eu não esteja obedecendo. Quero viver de acordo com as Tuas regras”. Jesus disse: “Se você quer entrar na vida, obedeça aos mandamentos” (Mt 19:7). Ele sabia que nada confere mais paz e confiança às pessoas que saber que estão agindo segundo o desejo de Deus. A Bíblia afirma que na obediência encontraremos misericórdia (Sl 28:6), também a paz (Sl 37:37) e a felicidade (Pv 29:18). Não viver em obediência resulta em graves consequências (Pv 15:10), orações não respondidas (Pv 28:9) e incapacidade de receber o que Deus tem para nós (1Co 6:9). Andar em obediência diz respeito também a atender às instruções específicas dEle. Se Deus o instruiu a descansar e você não o faz, isso é desobediência. Se Ele mandou que deixasse de fazer certo tipo de trabalho e você não atende, isso é desobediência. Deus também pode pedir-lhe que aceite um emprego diferente, suspenda certa atividade ou mude sua rotina em relação a algo. Não importa o que lhe peça, lembre-se que Ele o faz para seu bem. Os caminhos de Deus são sempre melhores que os nossos, e a obediência à Palavra abre o caminho para que nossas orações sejam ouvidas. Não tenha medo! Permita que Jesus controle a sua vida. Ofereça a Ele o “volante”, vá para o banco do carona e tenha certeza absoluta que tudo vai ser mudado e resolvido. Do jeito dEle e no tempo dEle. Faça isso no dia de hoje e ore comigo agora: Deus, ensina-me a Tua Palavra. Dá-me a compreensão dos Teus caminhos de modo que eles se tornem parte de mim. Mantém-me no caminho reto para que minhas orações nunca sejam detestáveis a Ti. Em nome de Jesus, amém!

Five years. Five seasons. 2025 was a milestone year for us in the podcave. And we have you and our wonderful guests to thank for that.In this final episode of 2025, KG and Paul reflect on the year that was - the many insightful, if not inspirational, conversations.

Mészáros Tamás színész ezúttal Tony Curtis, a Hollywood hercege című előadás főszereplőjeként érkezik a stúdióba, egyenesen a Spinoza Színház színpadáról. A beszélgetés középpontjában egy különleges, hiánypótló színházi este áll, amely Tony Curtis önéletrajzi könyvéből indul ki, mégis messze túlmutat egy filmsztár portréján. Az előadás egy pszichoterápiás helyzetbe helyezi a legendás színészt, ahol emlékek, élethelyzetek, sikerek és válságok villannak fel, hol fájdalmasan, hol öniróniával átszőve. Tamás számára Tony Curtis története személyes tükörré válik. Két egészen különböző életút találkozik, mégis ugyanazok a kérdések kerülnek elő: hiúság, megfelelés, apaság, szakmai hitelesség, életközepi újratervezés. A darab egyik ereje éppen az, hogy nem ikonként kezeli Curtist, hanem emberként, akinek sikerei mögött ugyanúgy ott vannak a bizonytalanságok és az önvizsgálat pillanatai. Az előadás rendezője Czeizel Gábor, a másik szereplő Spilák Klára, aki a pszichiáter figuráján keresztül vezeti végig a nézőt ezen az egyórás belső utazáson. A műfaj meghatározása sem hagyományos, Mészáros Tamás szavaival élve ez egy „pszicherett”, amely egyszerre komoly és játékos, mély és szórakoztató. Szó esik arról is, hogyan alakul egy előadás élete a bemutató után, mikor áll össze igazán a ritmusa, milyen szerepe van a közönség reakcióinak, és hogyan lehet estéről estére frissen, élőn tartani egy látszólag kötött szerkezetű darabot. A beszélgetés során kirajzolódik egy színész portréja, aki hisz az ösztöneiben, a játék örömében és abban, hogy a színház akkor működik, ha valódi tétje van minden este. A Tony Curtis, Hollywood hercege valódi találkozás. Találkozás egy legendával, egy színésszel és a saját kérdéseinkkel. Egy este, amely után a néző nemcsak Tony Curtisre gondol másként, hanem önmagára is. A Sláger FM-en minden este 22 órakor a kultúráé a főszerep S.

Méhész Mónika közösségépítő, üzletasszony és dr. Futó Gábor jogász, természetgyógyász, életmódtanácsadó, akik a testi-lelki egyensúly és az egészségmegőrzés tudatos útjáról mesélnek. Találkozásunk apropója a közösségépítés, a természetes életmód, valamint az a hit, hogy az egészség az emberi lét természetes alapja. Gábor hangsúlyozza, hogy a modern világban az egészség megőrzése gyakran stresszforrás, holott a test működése a legmagasabb szinten képes az önregenerációra. „Az emberi szervezetet nagy biztonsági ráhagyással teremtették, de a mindennapi stressz életmódszerűvé vált, és ezt a rendszert túlterheli” – mondja, majd hozzáteszi: „a regenerációs képesség még a legkritikusabb helyzetekben is működik, de sokkal könnyebb megőrizni az egyensúlyt, mint visszaszerezni.”Mónika Zuglóban vezeti a Megtisztulás Szalont, s arról beszél, hogy a test és a lélek együttes gondozása nélkül nincs valódi jólét. A közösségben zajló munka célja, hogy az emberek biztonságos, hiteles környezetben kapjanak iránymutatást. „Nem elég a táplálkozásra figyelni vagy sportolni, a csend, a lelassulás és a lelki harmónia ugyanúgy része a jóllétnek.”A műsorban szó esik a japán hőterápiáról is, amelynek rendszeres használata segíti a testi méregtelenítést és a stresszoldást. A két vendég közös missziója, hogy hiteles, tudásalapú tanácsadással és közösségi élményekkel segítsék a testi-lelki egyensúlyt kereső embereket. „A stressz az életünk része, de ha tudatosan építjük be az örömöt, a nyugalmat és a kapcsolódást, az egészség magától helyreáll” – fogalmaz Gábor.A beszélgetésben mindketten kiemelik, hogy az egészségmegőrzés nem helyettesíti az orvosi kezeléseket, hanem azok mellett kínál támogatást. „Nem diagnosztizálunk, nem kezelünk betegségeket, csak utat mutatunk azoknak, akik változtatni akarnak az életükön” – teszik hozzá.

Join me as I review Dalamar the Dark by Nancy Varian Berberick live! Share your thoughts on this first novel in the Dragonlance Classics series, released by Wizards of the Coast on January 1, 2000. You can buy a copy here: https://amzn.to/4pVk32n https://youtube.com/live/k7cjbWY25Cg About Dalamar the Dark A talent for magic runs like fire through the blood of Dalamar Argent. Yet he is only a servant in the house of an elvish lord, not worthy of the High Art of Sorcery and denied all but the most grudging teaching. As war simmers on the borders of Silvanesti, Dalamar will find a way to learn his art. His quest will take him along dark paths toward an awesome destiny. Show Notes Intro Welcome to another DragonLance Saga review episode. It is Kirinor, Frostkolt the 24th. My name is Adam and today I am going to give you my review of Dalamar the Dark by Nancy Varian Berberick. I would like to take a moment and thank the DLSaga members and Patreon patrons, and invite you to consider becoming a member or patron. You can even pick up Dragonlance media using my affiliate links. This is my perspective only, and if you have any thoughts or disagree with mine, I invite you to share them in YouTube chat. Review What a wonderful novel thus far. I wasn't sure how much of the world would be involved in Dalamar's tale, but it is thus far inextricably linked to the fall of Silvanesti. We start with Dalamar as the servant, as is normal in Silvanesti culture, to another servant, though he claims to be lord Eflid. He is upset with Dalamar, as Dalamar refuses to degrade himself to those whom he knows are not his betters, and Eflid is nothing close to equal. Finally having had enough, Eflid tells his Lord Ralan that he no longer wishes to maintain the young elf in his employ. Coincidentally enough a cleric of Eli named Lord Tellin has arrived to speak with lord Ralan. He is in love with Lady Lynntha, but he cannot propose as his house is lower than Lord Ralans, and the Woodshapers never marry out of their class. Lord Tellin gives a scroll of a song that Lady Lynntha enjoys singing to Lord Ralan to pass along, and he asks a favor of Tellin in return. To take on Dalamar as a servant. This strikes Telin as off, but he agrees. He immediately sends Dalamar to learn more magic, as he wants him to be as useful as possible. Silvanesti can only learn the White magic of Solinari, Red and Black are considered Blasphemous. Even though Dalamad secretly has volumes of black magic tomes secreted away that he studies as possible. Dalamar approached Lord Tellin about the state of the war in Silvanesti, suggesting he has a plan that may be more effective than what Lord Garan of House Protector is employing. This is shocking and a concern far beyond the scope of a meager servant like Dalamar, but the proposal is so brash that it just might work, and Lord Tellin agrees to present it to th eSpeaker. This is where we get a lot of background on Lorac Caladon and his daily life with Alhana Starbreeze, his daughter. She is clearly a devoted and loving daughter, and Lorac a troubled and tormented king. He wakes from a nightmare about the Dragon Orb, and tells Alhana how he rescued it from Istar when he took his Test of High Sorcery. Alhana even woke to see him streaming as if in a dream, clutching the Dragon orb, which called out to her as well. She ignored it and made sure her father was put to bed and resting. Lord Tellin and Dalamar arrive and are greeted by the Speaker of the Stars Lorak, Lady Ylle of house Mystic, and Lord Garan of House Protector. They all scoff at the notion that Lord Tellin has anything to offer and are taken aback in shock as Dalamar speaks to the Speaker himself and offers his plan. To Lorac's credit, he was willing to hear the plan of using illusions to make the Dragon Army believe it is being flanked, then having the actual army flank it for real. This is again, near blasphemous, but the king wants to try it as their current tactics are failing. We get to know a lot about the Red Dragonarmy, led by Dragon Highlord Phair Caron at this time. She is a devoted highlord to Takhisis and hates elves for having had poor experiences with them as a whore in her youth. She is loved and respected by her troops as much as they fear her. She reminds me of Kitiara a great deal. She is supported by a mysterious mage Tramd o' the Dark, who uses the dead to project himself into battle, not allowing anyone to see his true form. He discovers Dalamar's spellbooks that he was hiding. The battle goes off as expected, but the Dragon Army soon discovers it’s all an illusion and their armies are killing each other. They locate the wizards projecting the spells and take them out, Dalamar is among them, but he is also among the survivors. Tellin is healing as he can, but fears the battle has turned and they must retreat. His continued attempt to bring Lynntha with him proved to be useless, the Dragonarmy routed the forces of Silvanesti, and Tellin fell back as far as the mages area, nearly the only one alive. He saw Dalamar face off against a dragon and its rider. Dalamar cast light, temporarily blinding the beast and rider, and himself. As the rider grabbed Dalamar, Tellin intercepted and killed him, while being killed in the process. Wildrunners found Dalamar and brought him back to Silvanost. Lorac demanded to know if they could stand against these forces and his commander could not convince him that they could. He sent them off to Southern Ergoth with all the refugees, and stayed there alone to deal with the threat using th eDragon Orb. Alhana left the migration seeking assistance from port cities, and the elves remained in Silvamori in Southern Ergoth for the duration of the war. It was there that Dalamar heard about his homeland being a nightmare, and also freed by a human mage named Raistlin Majere. This stuck in Dalamar’s mind, as he continued to study magic, wondering if he would ever get to take the Test. THey eventually returned with Porthios to Silvanesti, and it was truly a wreck as rumored. Dalamar went to see if his books were safe, and everything was gone or rotting. He declared himself the student of Nuitari and wildrunners captured him after overhearing it. THey brought him to the capital where he was forced to take the Ceremony of Darkness. This would declare him a Dark Elf, and dead to all Silvanesti. He saw his future in short clipped visions out of context, it was interesting to read but wholly inconsistent with the river of time, as it can change as it flows. As he was cast out, he wandered the land learning what he could, searching for magic, and ending in Tarsis. He continued to study in the library there, then went looking for the Forest of Wayreth. It eventually found him through a mage named Regene of Schallsea who brought him into the tower and had him wait patiently for someone to notice him. He was delivered to his test which focused on his devolution to magic over his homeland or power. He was transported to Istar, to the Tower of High Sorcery and allowed Lorac Caladon to take the Dragon Orb from it before Istar's destruction. When he completed his test he was approached by Ladonna and given the second half of his test, to seek out and destroy Tramd o' the Dark. He was assisting Kitiara Uth Matar, the Blue Dragon Highlord as she built up her armies. Her victory would end the balance that the Orders of High Sorcery need, and thus Dalamar must side with the balance, and destroy him. He left Wayreth to Tarsis and was followed by Regene. She made a case for her joining him, and he accepted. They ended up having sex and enjoying their time together. They traveled to the dark citadel where Tramd dwelt and faced off against Blade, a blue dragon. It wounded Regene, but they defeated it, going further into the citadel, until trapped by Tramd. Regene was behind a magical barrier as Tramd gave Dalamar an offer, join them and be a Dragon highlord over any nation he chose. Dalamar refused, and Tramd sent a beast after Regene, who narrowly defeated it. Dalamar faced off against Tramd's avatar and narrowly defeated it, then met the true Tramd in his chambers. He beheaded the mage, and carried Regene back to the Tower of High Sorcery. We then pick up where the prelude left off in the epilogue. Dalamar enters the Tower of High Sorcery in Palanthas as the apprentice to Raistlin Majere. A young man feared by all in the Orders of High Sorcery. You truly feel the weight of Raistlin through the other characters' eyes, and it’s great. He is as bad ass you you ever wanted him to be in this time, and it is so great seeing him through Dalamar's eyes. The fear, the respect, the desire to learn even as he is betraying him for the balance of magic and the Orders of High Sorcery. This is a fantastic novel that you have to read if you are a Dragonlance fan. You learn so much about this fantastic mage and the nation of Silvanesti, and even the Orders of High Sorcery. It is well worth your time and the author continues to be a shining example of quality in the Dragonlance Saga. Outro And that's it for my review of Dalamar the Dark by Nancy Varian Berberick. What did you think of Dalamar's journey? Do you think he earned the trust of the Orders of High Sorcery? And finally, do you enjoy how authors depict magic differently from the game Dungeons and Dragons? Feel free to email me at info@dlsaga.com or leave a comment below.

Släbroristningen har gäckat arkeologerna sedan den upptäcktes på 1980-talet. Nu kommer tolkningen som kullkastar det vi tidigare trott om stenåldern.. Lyssna på alla avsnitt i Sveriges Radios app. Arkeologen Jonathan Lindström beskriver tecknen som ”gråsuggerobotar”, men menar att han nu börjat inse vad figurerna egentligen vill berätta.Sedan de upptäcktes på 1980-talet har hällristningarna vid Släbro i Nyköping förbryllar arkeologerna. Hur gamla är egentligen ristningarna och vad ska de föreställa?Genom att nu jämföra bilderna med äldre tiders kalenderstavar, och kombinera arkeologisk kunskap med grundläggande astronomi menar Jonathan Lindström att ristningarna fungerat som forntida avancerade kalendrar. Sannolikt har de använts som en sorts undervisningsmaterial, när en stenålderskvinna i Släbro för 4000 år sedan velat föra vidare sin kunskap till nya generationer.Urban Björstadius har träffat arkeologerna Sven-Göran Broström och Ulf Bertilsson tillsammans med Sörmlandsmuseets Rickard Borg vid Släbroristningarna, och i studion berättar Jonathan Lindström om sina teorier.Programledare är Tobias Svanelid.
Welcome to Dungeon Mastering 101, my Dungeon Mastering course based on over 30 years of experience. In this series I will share my failures and successes and the lessons learned along the way. In this episode, I will cover Tools & Techniques. Freeing your attention so you can focus on the players. https://youtube.com/live/1qubh7qpd-M Show Notes Intro Welcome to another DragonLance Saga, Dungeon Mastering 101 episode! It is Palast, Frostkolt the 22nd, my name is Adam, and today I am continuing my Dragonlance Gaming series all about Dungeon Mastering. Today we are going to discuss freeing your attention so you can focus on the players in this Tools & Techniques episode. Don't forget to like and subscribe to this channel, ring the bell, and you can support this channel by becoming a Patron on Patreon, a Member of this YouTube channel, and you can pick up Dragonlance media, using my affiliate links in the description below. Discussion Core Idea: Tools Exist to Reduce Cognitive Load Every tool you use as a Dungeon Master should serve one purpose: freeing your attention so you can focus on the players. Tools are not there to make the game more complex or impressive. They exist to help you: think less decide faster react more clearly If a tool pulls your attention away from the table, it is not helping you. Principle 1 — Simplicity Beats Cleverness The best tools are easy to remember and fast to apply. Complex systems increase hesitation and slow momentum. A tool that works most of the time is better than one that works perfectly but rarely gets used. Your brain is already busy. Choose tools that respect that reality. Principle 2 — Tools Support Judgment, They Don't Replace It No checklist can replace awareness of table energy. Tools give you structure; you provide discernment. Use tools as scaffolding, not autopilot. A good DM knows when to follow a tool — and when to ignore it. Principle 3 — Momentum Is the Highest Priority Any technique that halts play for long explanations or searching is costing you engagement. Fast rulings, even imperfect ones, maintain immersion. Tools should help you keep the game moving forward. Flow matters more than precision. Principle 4 — Reusability Over Novelty Favor techniques you can use in: combat social scenes exploration downtime Reusable tools reduce prep time and increase confidence. If you can apply it everywhere, it belongs in your toolkit. Core DM Tools & Techniques The 40 / 30 / 30 Prep Rule 40%: situations and conflicts 30%: NPCs, locations, and factions 30%: flexible space for improvisation Prep for possibility, not control. The Encounter Skeleton Every encounter should have: an objective a hook escalating tension a clear exit This structure works for any type of scene. The “Yes, But…” Technique Encourages creativity without removing consequences. Keeps player agency intact. Prevents dead ends. “Yes” keeps the game alive. “But” keeps it interesting. The Three-Question Improv Tool When unsure, ask: What is the most likely outcome? What is the most interesting outcome? What is the most character-driven outcome? Choose based on the needs of the moment. The Spotlight Tracker (Mental or Physical) Notice who has spoken recently. Actively bring quieter players into scenes. Gently limit over-dominant voices. Balance creates trust. The Reincorporation Rule If players fixate on something, bring it back later. It creates the illusion of deep planning. It rewards curiosity. Interest is a signal. Follow it. Principle 5 — Tools for Managing Table Energy Adjust tone, pacing, or stakes when energy dips. Call breaks before burnout sets in. Change scene type to reset attention. A skilled DM manages people first, mechanics second. Principle 6 — Tools Should Be Invisible to Players The best techniques feel natural at the table. Avoid explaining your process mid-session. Let players experience outcomes, not mechanics. Immersion increases when the tools stay behind the screen. Summary Takeaway Tools and techniques are not about mastery — they are about support. They help you: stay present make faster decisions preserve momentum share the spotlight reduce stress When used well, tools disappear, and what remains is a smooth, engaging, human experience. That is the goal of Dungeon Mastering 101. Outro And that's it for this episode of Dungeon Mastering 101, Tools & Techniques! Do you have any tools and techniques you would like to share? Do using external tools take too much time at your table? Feel free to email me at info@dlsaga.com or leave a comment below. Thank you for tuning in.

Bilan de fin d'année de part et d'autre de l'Atlantique : intelligence artificielle, régulation, cybersécurité, souveraineté numérique et gadgets futuristes. On passe au crible une année 2025 aussi dense que révélatrice.Avec Bruno Guglielminetti (Mon Carnet)Intelligence artificielle : la bataille des modèles et l'avalanche d'investissementsL'année 2025 a été marquée par une concurrence accrue entre modèles d'IA, avec un rattrapage spectaculaire des challengers face à ChatGPT. Les investissements se chiffrent désormais en centaines de milliards de dollars, sans que la fameuse « bulle de l'IA » n'ait réellement éclaté, renforçant l'idée que la technologie est déjà profondément ancrée dans l'économie réelle.IA et entreprises : promesses, frustrations et emplois menacésL'adoption de l'IA en entreprise progresse, mais de manière contrastée. Les outils comme Copilot peinent parfois à convaincre les salariés, tandis que des études montrent que l'IA pourrait freiner l'embauche des juniors au profit de profils plus expérimentés augmentés par la technologie, soulevant de vraies questions sur la relève et l'avenir du travail.Médias, contenus et création à l'ère de l'IARédactions, journalistes et créateurs de contenu intègrent progressivement l'IA dans leurs pratiques. Si les gains de productivité sont réels, la fiabilité des contenus générés reste imparfaite et impose des vérifications constantes.

Ralph Fiennes se narodil 22. prosince 1962 a herectví má doslova v genech. Elegantní Brit s pronikavým pohledem se dokáže proměnit v romantického hrdinu i nelítostného padoucha. Možná proto mu ve filmové branži přezdívají herecký chameleon. Slávu mu přinesl Schindlerův seznam, popularitu zase Voldemort z Harryho Pottera – roli, do níž ho prý přemluvila jeho sestra Martha. Režisér, divadelník, umělec, který o svém soukromí nemluví a před kamerou mizí za každou postavou.
CELÝ ROZHOVOR V DÉLCE 60 MIN. JEN NA HTTPS://HEROHERO.CO/CESTMIR A HTTPS://FORENDORS.CZ/CESTMIR Jako dítě byla introvertní a styděla se říct obyčejné dobrý den. Po tomhle setkání bych to herečce a moderátorce Adéle Gondíkové skoro ani nevěřil. „V dětství jsem ale fakt nemluvila,“ říká, když se vrací k vyrůstání v Sokolově, kde mluvení před lidmi představovalo „úplnou katastrofu“. Dnes přitom patří k nejznámějším hlasům českého rozhlasu a televize - víc než promyšlený plán ale podle ní šlo o souhru náhod. „Všechno je štěstí a náhoda,“ opakuje v rozhovoru a otevřeně přiznává, že žádné velké herecké ani moderátorské ambice nikdy neměla. „Kdyby se mě někdo zeptal, jestli chci moderovat takhle velký pořad, tak bych určitě řekla ne,“ říká Gondíková bez váhání a dodává, že by klidně zůstala někde ve sklepě v divadle a dělala alternativní divadlo „za dvě koruny“. Klíčovou roli v jejím životě sehrál bratr Dalibor Gondík, který ji postupně vtahoval do světa rádia i televize, i když ona sama o sobě tvrdí, že byla vždycky spíš ta, která pochybovala a brzdila. Vzpomíná na svou první práci v rádiu, odkud ji kvůli „absolutní neschopnosti“ dokonce vyhodili, protože četla zprávy a vždy se u toho smála. Právě smích, který ji provází celý život, považuje za obranu i záchranu zároveň. „Mám pocit, že mi to prodlužuje život,“ říká a přiznává, že se smála i v situacích, kdy by to jiným přišlo nepatřičné - dokonce i při porodu. Slávu, kterou zažívala na přelomu tisíciletí, ale Gongíková nikdy nevnímala jako náhlý zlom. „To nešlo ze dne na den,“ říká a odmítá představu, že by tehdy žila životem nedotknutelné televizní hvězdy. V rozhovoru mluví i o vztahu a manželství s hercem Jiřím Langmajerem, o němž vypráví s typickým nadhledem. Herečka a moderátorka otevřeně říká, že svatba pro ni nikdy nebyla zásadní. „Mně to nepřišlo vůbec podstatné,“ popisuje, proč by se sama vdávat nechtěla a proč ji Langmajerova žádost o ruku zaskočila natolik, že na něj „tři minuty koukala“. Mluví také o tom, proč si myslí, že se potkali ve správný čas, o každodenních drobnostech, které by v jiném období života mohly přerůst v konflikt i o tom, že i její humor a smích má ve vztahu své zásadní místo. Jaké je žít bez velkých ambicí, ale s radostí ze života? Proč je pro ni smích základní strategií přežití? A co všechno by se stalo, kdyby bratra v jejím životě neměla? I o tom je rozhovor s Adélou Gondíkovou.

Show Notes Intro Welcome to another DragonLance Saga review episode. It is Misham, Frostkolt the 18th.

Review This is a very interesting novel that I was not anticipating. It starts with an aristocrat hiring an assassin, Nistur, to kill a mercenary, Ironwood. As Nistur approached the merc in a bar, he offered him a job to get him to leave with him. Ironwood agreed and left, but Nistur admitted to being hired to kill him, and they began their fight. Nistur is honorable, and a poet at heart, but he is effective as an assassin, however Ironwood is nearly equal to the task of killing him. However, he succumbs to his knee giving out and as Nistur goes in for the kill, Ironwood punches him with the Knot of Thanalus. This casts a magical geas on Nistur which forces him to serve Ironwood. They are spied on by thief Shellring who is hired to take the now nigh unconscious Ironwood to a healer. They arrive at the healer, Stunbog's residence in Harbor town. He lives with the barbarian woman Nysra. They take care of the mercenary who suffers from a slow acting poison from a black dragon bite. Then we cut over to a council meeting between the Lord of Tarsis and his counselors. They are discussing the coming threat of the new chieftain of the nomads of the Plains of Dust, Kyaga Strongbow. His representatives arrive and make unbelievable demands of them, but being shrewd merchants and bankers they begin to barter. The chieftain will arrive in two days, so they must come to an accord, or he will sack the city. That night as they entertain the guests the lord of Tarsis spews dissent into the nomads’ ears, trying to turn them against one another. The following night the representative is discovered murdered, creating a pretty big problem for the Lord of Tarsis. As Kyaga arrives he gives them five days to discover and hand over the killer or killers or the town is going to be sacked. The Lord of Taris is beside himself as each of his councilors would turn against him to take his seat, so he can't trust anyone from Tarsis. Meanwhile Ironwood and Nistur are trying ot find mercenary work with the city for the oncoming war, but Ironwood has a reputation for being cursed, due to the Dragon bite. So no one will hire them, It ends in a fight with them locked in jail. They use Shellring the thief to send word to the Lord of Tarsis taht they are in fact acclaimed detectives and they would discover the murderer for him. With no other option the lord grants them his seal and sets them to work. They find no real information on the city wall, but discover the ambassador was killed with a wire around his neck and hauled up to the statue where his body was found. Now they search the town for information and an old Aghar dwarf named Granny Toadflower asked to meet them in her home. It happens to be in the worst part of town, so they all go together, hoping there is safety in numbers. Once there they are told to seek the lightning lizard, beware the musician and the lying eyes. This only confounds them, and when they leave they are confronted by two rival gangs working together to kill them. They fought the unskilled kids off and questioned one who told them that they were hired by a masked man. All the nobles in Tarsis wear masks, then the group makes note and continues to the nomads camp to question the chieftains. They learned that some of them are more willing to turn from Kyaga than others, but upon returning to Stunbog, they realised the shaman has a sigil on his hand. As Stunbog researched the sigil, Mysra was being visited by her long thought dead brother. The investigation was returned to and they questioned many nobles, only to see as much potential of backstabbing as any nomad, and the sudden death of Gulak Horsetamer, being hung in Melkar’s courtyard put him at the top of the convenient killer list. Kyaga demanded to have the murderer on the morrow or war will fall on Tarsis. The group learns of Mysra and Stunbog being captured and sent to the prisons for engaging with the enemy, Mysra's brother, and the group goes into the sewers to search for the dwarves to get into the prisons. They learn of a massive lizard in the tunnels they may have to fight off, if it wakes as they tunnel under the prison. They get Stunbog and Mysra out and the lizard wakes. Ironwood ends up defeating it and it melts off his black dragon armor that was stuck on him as if by a curse. They all realize the truth after Ironwood shares his history and Stunbog reveals the effect of the sigil. They confront the Lord of Tarsis and Kyaga as they are delivering Melkas as the murderer, even though he denies it. It turned out that Ironwood was joined by a bard named Boreas when they went to fight the small dragon years back. Ironwood was left for dead and took the skin to make armor. Boreas took the heart and used it to increase his charisma and authority, then used the sigil to change his appearance. He posed as the shaman heralding his own legend, and the councilor who hired Nistur to kill Ironwood. Then he killed his own men to frame the Tarsinians so he could take the city over and investigate the library underneath which would allow him to control more than just the nomads. But in true Scooby-Doo fashion, he was discovered in the final moments by our heroes and revealed. Then a massive Black dragon that has been searching for its child found the heart that Boreas had and took it and him away, as the nomads and Tarsinians begin battling and the heroes leave town to fight corruption elsewhere. It was a fun story, but as soon as we learned about Ironwood’s past, it revealed everything. I like these little mysteries a lot, and would even welcome a second installment. The characters were all believable and entertaining, even though it was really short, just a couple hundred pages. If you are a fan of mysteries, dragonlance, or one-off novellas set in Tarsis, I would highly recommend this novel. You could do a lot worse and it's a fun read.

Slovenský folklór je bohatý na tajomné bytosti, ktoré formovali predstavy našich predkov o svete. Medzi menej známe, no mimoriadne zaujímavé bytosti patrí rarašok. V slovenských poverách je často vykresľovaný ako malý domový duch, ktorý môže byť užitočný, no rovnako ľahko dokáže obrátiť všetko na neporiadok. V niektorých príbehoch má dokonca podobu iskričky pri peci, inokedy chlpatého škriatka s ohnivými očami. V ústnom podaní bol však viac než len postavička z rozprávok – predstavoval symbol narušeného poriadku, napätia či vnútorných rozporov v dome. Rarašok prichádza, iba keď ho zavolajú. Slúži na to zaklínadlo vyslovené o polnoci, na správnom mieste a so správnym úmyslom. Vtedy sa zjaví nie ako malé strašidielko, ale ako magická entita, ktorá dokáže splniť to, po čom človek túži najviac na svete… avšak za cenu, ktorú si málokto dopredu uvedomuje.PS: Báť sa je povolené!CREDITSScenár: Katarína PivarčiováNámet a dramaturgia: Diana KacarováHlas: Marek MajeskýZvuková produkcia:Juraj HrnčiríkPodcast produkcia: Simona Mičová

The transcript may contain errors and is not a substitute for listening to the episode. Christopher S. Penn: In this week’s *In-Ear Insights*. This is the last episode of *In-Ear Insights* for 2025. We are out with the old. We’ll be back in January for new episodes the week of January 5th. So, Katie, let’s talk about the year that was and all the crazy things that happened in the year. And so what you’re thinking about, particularly from the perspective of all things AI, all things data and analytics—how was 2025 for you? Katie Robbert: What’s funny about that is I feel like for me personally, not a lot changed. And the reason I feel like I can say that is because a lot of what I focus on is foundational, and it doesn’t really matter what fancy, shiny new technology is happening. So I really try to focus on making sure the things that I do every day can adapt to new technology. And again, of course, that’s probably the most concrete example of that is the 5P framework: Purpose, People, Process, Platform for Performance. It doesn’t matter what the technology is. This is where I’m always going to ground myself in this framework so that if AI comes along or shiny object number 2 comes along, I can adapt because it’s still about primarily, what are we doing? So asking the right questions. The things that did change were I saw more of a need this year, not in general, but just this year, for people to understand how to connect with other people. And not only in a personal sense, but in a professional sense of my team needs to adopt AI or they need to adopt this new technology. I don’t know how to reach them. I don’t know where to start. I don’t know. I’m telling them things. Nothing’s working. And I feel like the technology of today, which is generative AI, is creating more barriers to communication than it is opening up communication channels. And so that’s a lot of where my head has been: how to help people move past those barriers to make sure that they’re still connecting with their teams. And it’s not so much that the technology is just a firewall between people, but it’s the when you start to get into the human emotion of “I’m afraid to use this,” or “I’m hesitant to use this,” or “I’m resistant to use this,” and you have people on two different sides of the conversation—how do you help them meet in the middle? Which is really where I’ve been focused, which, to be fair, is not a new problem: new tech, old problems. But with generative AI, which is no longer a fad—it’s not going away—people are like, “Oh, what do you mean? I actually have to figure this out now.” Okay, so I guess that’s what I mean. That’s where my head has been this year: helping people navigate that particular digital disruption, that tech disruption, versus a different kind of tech disruption. Christopher S. Penn: And if you had to—I know I personally always hate this question—if you had to boil that down to a couple of first principles of the things that are pretty universal from what you’ve had to tell people this year, what would those first principles be? Katie Robbert: Make sure you’re clear on your purpose. What is the problem you’re trying to solve? I think with technology that feels all-consuming, generative AI. We tend to feel like, “Oh, I just have to use it. Everybody else is using it.” Whereas things that have a discrete function. An email server, do I need to use it? Am I sending email? No. So I don’t need an email server. It’s just another piece of technology. We’re not treating generative AI like another piece of technology. We’re treating it like a lifestyle, we’re treating it like a culture, we’re treating it like the backbone of our organization, when really it’s just tech. And so I think it comes down to one: What is the question you’re trying to answer? What is the problem you’re trying to solve? Why do you need to use this in the first place? How is it going to enhance? And two: Are you clear on your goals? Are you clear on your vision? Which relates back to number 1. So those are really the two things that have come up the most: What’s the problem you’re trying to solve by using generative AI? And a lot of times it’s, “I don’t want to fall behind,” which is a valid problem, but it’s not the right problem to solve with generative AI. Christopher S. Penn: I would imagine. Probably part of that has to do with what you see from very credible studies coming out about it. The one that I know we’ve referenced multiple times is the 3-year study from Wharton Business School where, in Year 3 (which is 2025—this came out in October of this year), the line that caught everyone’s attention was at the bottom. Here it says 3 out of 4 leaders see positive returns on Gen AI investments, and 4 out of 5 leaders in enterprises see these investments paying off in a couple of years. And the usage levels. Again, going back to what you were saying about people feeling left behind, within enterprises, 82% using it weekly, 46% using it daily, and 72% formally measuring the ROI on it in some capacity and seeing those good results from it. Katie Robbert: But there’s a lot there that you just said that’s not happening universally. So measuring ROI consistently and in a methodical way, employees actually using these tools in the way that they’re intended, and leadership having a clear vision of what it’s intended to do in terms of productivity. Those are all things that sound good on paper but are not actually happening in real-life practice. We talk with our peers, we talk with our clients, and the chief complaint that we get is, “We have all these resources that we created, but nobody’s using them, nobody’s adopting this,” or, “They’re using generative AI, but not the way that I want them to.” So how do you measure that for efficiency? How do you measure that for productivity? So I look at studies like that and I’m like, “Yeah, that’s more of an idealistic view of everything’s going right, but in the real world, it’s very messy.” Christopher S. Penn: And we know, at least in some capacity, how those are happening. So this comes from Stanford—this was from August—where generative AI is deployed within organizations. We are seeing dramatic headcount reductions, particularly for junior people in their careers, people 22 to 25. And this is a really well-done study because you can see the blue line there is those early career folks, how not just hiring, but overall headcount is diminishing rapidly. And they went on to say, for professions where generative AI really isn’t part of it, like stock clerks, health aides, you do not see those rapid declines. The one that we care about, because our audience is marketing and sales. You can see there’s a substantial reduction in the amount of headcount that firms are carrying in this area. So that productivity increase is coming at the expense of those jobs, those seats. Katie Robbert: Which is interesting because that’s something that we saw immediately with the rollout of generative AI. People are like, “Oh great, this can write blog posts for me. I don’t need my steeple of writers.” But then they’re like, “Oh, it’s writing mediocre, uninteresting blog posts for me, but I’ve already fired all of my writers and none of them want to come back.” So I am going to ask the people who are still here to pick up the slack on that. And then those people are going to burn out and leave. So, yeah, if you look at the chart, statistically, they’re reducing headcount. If you dig into why they’re reducing headcount, it’s not for the right reasons. You have these big leaders, Sam Altman and other people, who are talking about, “We did all these amazing things, and I started this billion-dollar company with one employee. It’s just me.” And everything else is—guess what? That is not the rule. That is the exception. And there’s a lot that they’re not telling you about what’s actually happening behind the scenes. Because that one person who’s managing all the machines is probably not sleeping. They’re probably taking some sort of an upper to stay awake to keep up with whatever the demand is for the company that they’re creating. You want to talk about true hustle culture? That’s it. And it is not something that I would recommend to anyone. It’s not worth it. So when we talk about these companies that are finding productivity, reducing headcount, increasing revenue, what they’re not doing is digging into why that’s happening. And I would guarantee that it’s not on the up and up, but it’s not all the healthy version of that. Christopher S. Penn: Oh, we know that for sure. One of the big work trends this year that came out of Chinese AI Labs, which Silicon Valley is scrambling to impose upon their employees, is the 996 culture: 9 a.m. to 9 p.m., six days a week is demanding. Katie Robbert: I was like, “Nope.” I was like, “Why?” You’re never going to get me to buy into that. Christopher S. Penn: Well, I certainly don’t want to either. Although that’s about what I work anyway. But half of my work is fun, so. Katie Robbert: Well, yeah. So let the record show I do not ask Chris to work those hours. That is not a requirement. He is choosing, as a person with his own faculties, to say, “This is what I want to do.” So that is not a mandate on him. Christopher S. Penn: Yes, this is something that the work that I do is also my hobby. But what people forget to take into account is their cultural differences too. So. And there are also macro things that are different that make that even less sustainable in Western cultures than it does in Chinese cultures. But looking back at the year from a technological perspective, one of the things that stunned me was how we forget just how smart these things have gotten in just one year. One of the things that we—there’s an exam that was built in January of this year called Humanity’s Last Exam as a—it’s a very challenging exam. I think I have a sample question. Yeah, here’s 2 sample questions. I don’t even know what these questions mean. So my score on this exam would be a 0 because it’s one doing. Here’s a thermal paracyclic cascade. Provide your answer in this format. Here’s some Hebrew. Identify closed and open syllables. I look at this I can’t even multiple-choice guess this. Sure, I don’t know what it is. At the beginning of the year, the models at the time—OpenAI’s GPT4O, Claude 3 Opus, Google Gemini Pro 2, Deep Seek V3—all scored 5%. They just bombed the exam. Everybody bombed it. I granted they scored 5% more than I would have scored on it, but they basically bombed the exam. In just 12 months, we’ve seen them go from 5% to 26%. So a 5x increase. Gemini going from 6.8% to 37%, which is what—a 5, 6, 7—6x improvement. Claude going from 3% to 28%. So that’s what a 7x improvement. No, 8x improvement. These are huge leaps in intelligence for these models within a single calendar year. Katie Robbert: Sure. But listen, I always say I might be an N of 1. I’m not impressed by that because how often do I need to know the answers to those particular questions that you just shared? In the profession that I am in, specifically, there’s an old saying—I don’t know how old, or maybe it’s whatever—there’s a difference between book smart and street smart. So you’re really talking about IQ versus EQ, and these machines don’t have EQ. It’s not anything that they’re ever going to really be able to master the way that humans do. Now, when you say this, I’m talking about intellectual intelligence and emotional intelligence. And so if you’ve seen any of the sci-fi movies, *Her* or *Ex Machina*, you’re led to believe that these machines are going to simulate humans and be empathetic and sympathetic. We’ve already seen the news stories of people who are getting married to their generative AI system. That’s happening. Yes, I’m not brushing over it, I’m acknowledging it. But in reality, I am not concerned about how smart these machines get in terms of what you can look up in a dictionary or what you can find in an encyclopedia—that’s fine. I’m happy to let these machines do that all day long. It’s going to save me time when I’m trying to understand the last consonant of every word in the Hebrew alphabet since the dawn of time. Sure. Happy to let the machine do that. What these machines don’t know is what I know in my life experience. And so why am I asking that information? What am I going to do with that information? How am I going to interpret that information? How am I going to share that information? Those are the things that the machine is never going to replace me in my role to do. So I say, great, I’m happy to let the machines get as smart as they want to get. It saves me time having to research those things. I was on a train last week, and there were 2 women sitting behind me, and they were talking about generative AI. You can go anywhere and someone talks about generative AI. One of the women was talking about how she had recently hired a research assistant, and she had given her 3 or 4 academic papers and said, “I want to know your thoughts on these.” And so what the research assistant gave back was what generative AI said were the summaries of each of these papers. And so the researcher said, “No, I want to know your thoughts on these research papers.” She’s like, “Well, those are the summaries. That’s what generative AI gave me.” She’s like, “Great, but I need you to read them and do the work.” And so we’ve talked about this in previous episodes. What humans will have over generative AI, should they choose to do so, is critical thinking. And so you can find those episodes of the podcast on our YouTube channel at TrustInsights.ai/YouTube. Find our podcast playlist. And it just struck me that it doesn’t matter what industry you’re in, people are using generative AI to replace their own thinking. And those are the people who are going to be finding themselves to the right and down on those graphs of being replaced. So I’ve sort of gone on a little bit of a rant. Point is, I’m happy to let the machines be smarter than me and know more than me about things in the world. I’m the one who chooses how to use it. I’m the one who has to do the critical thinking. And that’s not going to be replaced. Christopher S. Penn: Yeah, that’s. But you have to make that a conscious choice. One of the things that we did see this year, which I find alarming, is the number of people who have outsourced their executive function to machines to say, “Hey, do this way.” There’s. You can go on Twitter, or what was formerly known as Twitter, and literally see people who are supposedly thought leaders in their profession just saying, “Chat GPT told me this. And so you’re wrong.” And I’m like, “In a very literal sense, you have lost your mind.” You have. It’s not just one group of people. When you look at the *Harvard Business Review* use cases—this was from April of this year—the number 1 use case is companionship for these tools. Whether or not we think it’s a good idea. They. And to your point, Katie, they don’t have empathy, they don’t have emotional intelligence, but they emulate it so well now. Oh, they do that. People use it for those things. And that, I think, is when we look back at the year that was, the fact that this is the number 1 use case now for these tools is shocking to me. Katie Robbert: Separately—not when I was on a train—but when I was sitting at a bar having lunch. We. My husband and I were talking to the bartender, and he was like, “Oh, what do you do for a living?” So I told him, and he goes, “I’ve been using ChatGPT a lot. It’s the only one that listens to me.” And it sort of struck me as, “Oh.” And then he started to, it wasn’t a concerning conversation in the sense that he was sort of under the impression that it was a true human. But he was like, “Yeah, I’ll ask it a question.” And the response is, “Hey, that’s a great question. Let me help you.” And even just those small things—it saying, “That’s a really thoughtful question. That’s a great way to think about it.” That kind of positive reinforcement is the danger for people who are not getting that elsewhere. And I’m not a therapist. I’m not looking to fix this. I’m not giving my opinions of what people should and shouldn’t do. I’m observing. What I’m seeing is that these tools, these systems, these pieces of software are being designed to be positive, being designed to say, “Great question, thank you for asking,” or, “I hope you have a great day. I hope this information is really helpful.” And it’s just those little things that are leading people down that road of, “Oh, this—it knows me, it’s listening to me.” And so I understand. I’m fully aware of the dangers of that. Yeah. Christopher S. Penn: And that’s such a big macro question that I don’t think anybody has the answer for: What do you do when the machine is a better human than the humans you’re surrounded by? Katie Robbert: I feel like that’s subjective, but I understand what you’re asking, and I don’t know the answer to that question. But that again goes back to, again, sort of the sci-fi movies of *Her* or *Ex Machina*, which was sort of the premise of those, or the one with Haley Joel Osment, which was really creepy. *Artificial Intelligence*, I think, is what it was called. But anyway. People are seeking connection. As humans, we’re always seeking connection. Here’s the thing, and I don’t want to go too far down the rabbit hole, but a lot of people have been finding connection. So let’s say we go back to pen pals—people they’d never met. So that’s a connection. Those are people they had never met, people they don’t interact with, but they had a connection with someone who was a pen pal. Then you have things like chat rooms. So AOL chat room—A/S/L. We all. If you’re of that generation, what that means. People were finding connections with strangers that they had never met. Then you move from those chat rooms to things like these communities—Discord and Slack and everything—and people are finding connections. This is just another version of that where we’re trying to find connections to other humans. Christopher S. Penn: Yes. Or just finding connections, period. Katie Robbert: That’s what I mean. You’re trying to find a connection to something. Some people rescue animals, and that’s their connection. Some people connect with nature. Other people, they’re connecting with these machines. I’m not passing judgment on that. I think wherever you find connection is where you find connection. The risk is going so far down that you can’t then be in reality in general. I know. *Avatar* just released another version. I remember when that first version of the movie *Avatar* came out, there were a lot of people very upset that they couldn’t live in that reality. And it’s just. Listen, I forgot why we’re doing this podcast because now we’ve gone so far off the rails talking about technology. But I think to your point, what’s happened with generative AI in 2025: It’s getting very smart. It’s getting very good at emulating that human experience, and I don’t think that’s slowing down anytime soon. So we as humans, my caution for people is to find something outside of technology that grounds you so that when you are using it, you can figure out sort of that real from less reality. Christopher S. Penn: Yeah. One of the things—and this is a complete nerd thing—but one of the things that I do, particularly when I’m using local models, is I will keep the console up that shows the computations going as a reminder that the words appearing on the screen are not made by a human; they’re made by a machine. And you can see the machinery working, and it’s kind of knowing how the magic trick is done. You watch go. “Oh, it’s just a token probability machine.” None of what’s appearing on screen is thought through by an organic intelligence. So what are you looking forward to or what do you have your eyes on in 2026 in general for Trust Insights or in particular the field of AI? Katie Robbert: I think now that some of the excitement over Generative AI is wearing off. I think what I’m looking forward to in 2026 for Trust Insights specifically is helping more organizations figure out how AI fits into their overall organization, where there’s real opportunity versus, “Hey, it can write a blog post,” or, “Hey, it can do these couple of things,” and I built a—I built a gem or something—but really helping people integrate it in a thoughtful way versus the short-term thinking kind of way. So I’m very much looking forward to that. I’m seeing more and more need for that, and I think that we are well suited to help people through our courses, through our consulting, through our workshops. We’re ready. We are ready to help people integrate technology into their organization in a thoughtful, sustainable way, so that you’re not going to go, “Hey, we hired these guys and nothing happened.” We will make the magic happen. You just need to let us do it. So I’m very much looking forward to that. I’ve personally been using Generative AI to sort of connect dots in my medical history. So I’m very excited just about the prospect of being able to be more well-informed. When I go into a doctor’s office, I can say, “I’m not a doctor, I’m not a researcher, but I know enough about my own history to say these are all of the things. And when I put them together, this is the picture that I’m getting. Can you help me come to faster conclusions?” I think that is an exciting use of generative AI, obviously under a doctor’s supervision. I’m not a doctor, but I know enough about how to research with it to put pieces together. So I think that there’s a lot of good that’s going to come from it. I think it’s becoming more accessible to people. So I think that those are all positive things. Christopher S. Penn: The thing—if there’s one thing I would recommend that people keep an eye on—is a study or a benchmark from the Center for AI Safety called RLI, Remote Labor Index. And this is a benchmark test where AI models and their agents are given a task that typically a remote worker would do. So, for example, “Here’s a blueprint. Make an architectural rendering from it. Here’s a data set. Make a fancy dashboard, make a video game. Make a 3D rendering of this product from the specifications.” Difficult tasks that the index says the average deliverable costs thousands of dollars and hundreds of hours of time. Right now, the state of the art in generative AI—it’s close to—because this was last month’s models, succeeded 2.1% of the time at a max. It was not great. Now, granted, if your business was to lose 2.1% of its billable deliverables, that might be enough to make the difference between a good year and a bad year. But this is the index you watch because with all the other benchmarks, like you said, Katie, they’re measuring book smart. This is measuring: Was the work at a quality level that would be accepted as paid, commissioned work? And what we saw with Humanity’s Last Exam this year is that models went from face-rolling moron, 3% scores, to 25%, 30%, 35% within a year. If this index of, “Hey, I can do quality commissioned work,” goes from 2.1% to 10%, 15%, 20%, that is economic value. That is work that machines are doing that humans might not be. And that also means that is revenue that is going elsewhere. So to me, this is the one thing—if there’s one thing I was going to pay attention to in 2026—it would be watching measures like this that measure real-world things that you would ask a human being to do to see how tools are advancing. Katie Robbert: Right. The tools are going to advance, people are going to want to jump on it. But I feel like when generative AI first hit the market, the analogy that I made is people shopping the big box stores versus people shopping the small businesses that are still doing things in a handmade fashion. There’s room for both. And so I think that you don’t have to necessarily pick one or the other. You can do a bit of both. And I think that for me is the advice that I would give to people moving into 2026: You can use generative AI or not, or use it a little bit, or use it a lot. There’s no hard and fast rule that says you have to do it a certain way. So I think that’s really when clients come to us or we talk about it through our content. That’s really the message that I’m trying to get across is, “Yeah, there’s a lot that you can do with it, but you don’t have to do it that way.” And so that is what I want people to take away. At least for me, moving into 2026, is it’s not going anywhere, but that doesn’t mean you have to buy into it. You don’t have to be all in on it. Just because all of your friends are running ultramarathons doesn’t mean you have to. I will absolutely not be doing that for a variety of reasons. But that’s really what it comes down to: You have to make those choices for yourself. Yes, it’s going to be everywhere. Yes, it’s accessible, but you don’t have to use it. Christopher S. Penn: Exactly. And if I were to give people one piece of advice about where to focus their study time in 2026, besides the fundamentals, because the fundamentals aren’t changing. In fact, the fundamentals are more important than ever to get things like prompting and good data right. But the analogy is that AI is sort of the engine—you need the rest of the car. And 2026 is when you’re going to look at things like agentic frameworks and harnesses and all the fancy techno terms for this. You are going to need the rest of the car because that’s where utility comes from. When a generative AI model is great, but a generative AI model connected to your Gmail so you can say which email should I respond to first today is useful. Katie Robbert: Yep. And I support that. That is a way that I will be using. I’ve been playing with that for myself. But what that does is it allows me to focus more on the hands-on homemade small business things. When before I was drowning in my email going, “Where do I start?” Great, let the machine tell me where to start. I’m happy to let AI do that. That’s a choice that I am making as a human who’s going to be critically thinking about all of the rest of the work that I have going on. Christopher S. Penn: Exactly.

Welcome to Dungeon Mastering 101, my Dungeon Mastering course based on over 30 years of experience. In this series I will share my failures and successes and the lessons learned along the way. In this episode, I will cover World and Lore. Making the Setting Work at the Table. https://youtube.com/live/Y8veKOutkaE Show Notes: Intro Welcome to another DragonLance Saga, Dungeon Mastering 101 episode! It is Palast, Frostkolt the 15th, my name is Adam, and today I am continuing my Dragonlance Gaming series all about Dungeon Mastering. Today we are going to discuss Making the Setting Work at the Table in this World & Lore episode.

Discussion Core Idea: Worldbuilding Exists to Serve Play Worlds are not built to be admired — they are built to be used. Lore that does not influence player decisions, emotions, or consequences is decorative at best and distracting at worst. A Dungeon Master's goal is not to explain the world, but to make the world felt through action. Principle 1 — Lore Is a Tool, Not a Lecture Players rarely engage with lore when it is delivered as exposition. Information becomes meaningful only when it answers a question the players already care about. Effective lore: explains danger justifies opportunity reveals consequence deepens choice If lore does not change how players act, it has arrived too early or too late. Principle 2 — Show the World Through Lived Experience The fastest way to communicate lore is through: cultural habits social rules taboos fear pride A single custom can communicate more than a page of history. Players learn a setting by surviving in it, not by being told about it. Principle 3 — Locations Are Characters Every meaningful location should have: desires fears internal tension Ask three questions about any place: What does this place want? What does it fear? Where can it be pressured or changed? A location that does not react to player actions is not alive yet. Principle 4 — Power Shapes the World Lore emerges from who holds power and who wants it. Cities, kingdoms, temples, guilds, and cabals exist because someone benefits from them. Show power through: who enforces laws who is protected who is punished who is ignored Players understand the world when they see how authority is applied. Principle 5 — Factions Drive Motion A world without active factions is static. Factions should: pursue goals off-screen react to player interference clash with each other Good factions are defined by beliefs and methods, not alignments. Conflict creates story even when the players are not present. Principle 6 — Truth Is Fragmented and Biased No NPC should possess complete or objective truth. Lore is shaped by: perspective propaganda ignorance self-interest Contradictory accounts create mystery and engagement. History should feel debated, not settled. Principle 7 — Environmental Storytelling Is King Ruins, scars, monuments, banners, songs, and relics all tell stories. Let players infer meaning rather than receive confirmation. Mystery invites exploration. If players ask follow-up questions, the lore is working. Practical Tools for World & Lore at the Table The One-Sentence Rule Any piece of lore should be deliverable in one sentence during play. Additional detail comes later — only if requested. The Relevance Test Before sharing lore, ask: “Will this affect a player decision in the next 10 minutes?” The Three-Faction Shortcut For any region, create: one faction in power one faction that wants power one faction that benefits from chaos This guarantees tension. Summary Takeaway World & lore are not about depth — they are about pressure. A good setting pushes back when players act. A great setting remembers. When lore becomes experiential, locations become reactive, and factions pursue goals independently… your world stops being a backdrop and starts being a participant. That is when players stop asking, “Where are we?”…and start asking, “What happens if we do this?” Outro And that's it for this episode of Dungeon Mastering 101, World and Lore!

Bokavtal har rotts i land och vi firar att 2025 ser ut att sluta väldigt positivt för oss båda! Vilket förlag Stina har skrivit avtal med är hemligt ett tag till och Anneli ger ut fjärde delen i Alva Bergmanserien 2027 digitalt med Gyldendal Astra och i print på sitt eget förlag, som tidigare. Och i avsnittet ger oss på att diskutera böcker som är skrivna på annorlunda sätt än "gängse normer" och vad vi tänker om att bryta mot reglerna :-) Podden görs av författarna Stina Flodén och Anneli Olsson sedan januari 2021 och till den finns Facebookgruppen Podden skrivvänner som du är varmt välkommen in i om du inte redan är med: https://www.facebook.com/groups/poddenskrivvanner Stina har skrivit spänningsromanerna Nu dör vi, Släpp mig fri och Död för mig, i Camilla Stensjö-serien och kommer framöver med en ny serie.

This episode features host Greg and Lewis Ward discussing the true nature of virtual worlds with Wagner James Au, author of Making a Metaverse That Matters, exploring the core design, economic, and community philosophies of successful platforms.SummaryThe discussion defines the metaverse as a vast, immersive virtual world with five core features, including highly customizable avatars and a link to the real-world economy . Au argues that to succeed, a platform must be fun immediately in a multiplayer context, operating as a "third space" where socialization is easy . He contends that Mark Zuckerberg's approach damaged the ideal of the metaverse by focusing too much on hardware and ignoring crucial lessons on community and regulation . The history of Second Life (SL) serves as a critical case study, showing that while strong community allows a platform to survive economic crises and bad onboarding, financial stability requires tightly regulated markets, learned through scandals like the implosion of virtual banks and the ban on unregulated gambling . Ultimately, the key to a thriving metaverse is prioritizing community, fostering diversity, and making creation easy .Key PointsCore Metaverse Definition A true metaverse is defined by Immersiveness, Customization (avatars/tools), Scale (millions of people), a Real-World Economy Link, and Off-World Tech Integration (for accessibility) .Identity and Design Avatars and Identity (05:51): Highly customizable avatars are critical for users to experiment with identity and personality . The Proteus Effect shows that an appealing avatar can boost real-world confidence. The "Fun First" Rule (15:40): Metaverse experiences must be fun immediately in a multiplayer setting (the Third Space concept) . This is why Roblox and Fortnite succeed. Meta's Misstep (10:26): Mark Zuckerberg caused "tremendous damage" to the concept by defining it around the Quest headset and ignoring lessons on managing toxic behavior, like the initial sexual harassment incidents on Horizon Worlds .Economics and Stability Community Precedes Commerce (29:44): Platforms must succeed as communities first. Focusing only on profit (the "Cryptoverse" issue) causes virtual worlds to fail . Second Life's Stability (22:31): SL's active user base is stable at 600,000. The paradox is that if a user survives the long onboarding, they "never leave" due to the community. Regulation is Necessary (40:53): SL's banking and gambling scandals forced Linden Lab to impose tight regulation . This proves that a tightly regulated economy is essential for user trust and stability.Timestamps 03:30 The Five Core Features of the Metaverse 05:51 Avatars and the "Proteus Effect" 10:26 Why Meta Damaged the Metaverse Concept 15:40 The Critical Rule: Why Metaverse Must Be Fun First 22:31 Second Life's Paradox: Why users never leaveReferencesMaking a Metaverse That MattersWagner James Au Lewis Ward Greg PosnerCheck out Player Driven
