Read transcriptListen up, mutation enthusiasts and multi-platform adventurers, because this week on Play Comics we're strapping on our Kevlar suits and diving straight into the bewildering, beast-infested, cross-console chaos of X-Men: The Official Game! We're talking about the 2006 game that launched on practically every system known to mankind (GBA, GameCube, Nintendo DS, PS2, Xbox, and Xbox 360. Seriously, did they forget a platform?), which based the story nominally on the third X-Men film from Fox. You know, the one that showed us what happens when Professor Xavier and Magneto finally decided to outsource their beef settlement to a video game developer. This particular romp through Marvel's merry mutant universe was brought to you by the folks who looked at a film featuring Wolverine, Nightcrawler, and Iceman and thought, “What if we made this game SLIGHTLY different on each platform?” It's like they were challenged to see just how elastic the definition of ‘the same game' could be, and frankly, the results are beautifully inconsistent. The story was co-written by Chris Claremont (yes, THAT Chris Claremont) and Zak Penn, and it featured voice acting from the actual film cast, which means you got Hugh Jackman's growl in your living room, your handheld, and probably also your neighbors' living rooms at 2 AM. Joining us to make sense of this portable and stationary pandemonium is none other than Alex Zalben from Comic Book Club, a weekly live talk show about comics that's been running since 2006, performed at every major comic convention you can think of, written up in the New York Times more than once, and hosted literally hundreds of guests with more swagger than most podcasts muster in a lifetime. Alex is a writer, editor, and podcaster who knows his way around both four-color storytelling and video game adaptations, making him the perfect guide to help us determine whether this cross-generational, cross-console adventure managed to capture what makes the X-Men actually work, or if it just made us wish we could teleport away from our screens. So sync up your Danger Room protocols, pick your favorite handheld or home console, and get ready for an episode that's guaranteed to be more chaotic than a Sentinel factory explosion and infinitely more confusing than trying to figure out why THIS game exists on THAT console! Learn such things as: Who thought it was a good idea to put this on so many consoles? Is it possible to get that team feeling when you're playing solo? Is it better to look at this game as a sequel to the 2nd movie, or a prequel to the 3rd movie? And so much more! You can find Alex on YouTube @ComicBookClub and of course Comic Book Club Live.

W/C 22nd December 2025I am going to split Christmas 2025 into three categories, the more, the less and the same.In the more bucket we have family cultural experiences, with the triple whammy of the cinema, the theatre and the panto in a five day period bookending the big day. I would also throw into the more pot, jigsaw-time, food-prep and possibly running.The consistent category is food and drink, no question. The annual appearance of the cheese board has been most welcome, and there has been very little in the way of intake discipline since Christmas Eve. Slightly more red than white, equal parts savoury to sweet.And the less has been screen time, scheduled group TV moments and snoozing. I don't think I have had one nap this time around.Oh and matching Christmas Pyjamas, at no point has this even been considered, as an insta-moment or as going-out attire.Stay safe.The Boy in the Bubble - Paul SimonTherapy For Me (or TFM as I now refer to it) is a bit of an audio curiosity. It started out as a mechanism for me to clear my head, with the hope that by saying stuff out loud it would act as a little bit of self-help. It's remains loose in style, fluid in terms of content and raw - it's a one take, press record and see what happens, affair.If you want to keep in touch with TFM and the other stuff I do then please follow me on Facebook, Insta, Twitter or Patreon. Thanks for getting this far.

The Dallas Stars steamroll the Anaheim Ducks 8–3 in a game that felt dominant, strange, and completely unhinged.

It wasn't pretty — but it was decisive. This episode covers: Robertson's statement game and contract-year dominance Dallas capitalizing on every Anaheim mistake Why this game was weird without ever being close Depth scoring all over the lineup Casey DeSmith doing exactly what a great backup does The dangerous Frank Vatrano incident and why it crossed the line The Stars keep stacking wins, manage minutes smartly, and stay right in the Central Division race.

In this episode of Untidy, Hannah and Matilda get bum-clenchingly honest about relationships, emotional triggers, fear of failure, and the disappointing truth that doing “the work” doesn’t mean you’re finally “fixed”... (Wait ... what?!) It’s Matty’s turn to talk Hannah off the ledge this week! They talk hyper-vigilance, catching petty old patterns resurfacing, the pressure to get relationships right, and why knowing too much can sometimes make things harder. From breadcrumb conversations to the immensity of merging lives, they take a confronting look at the messy middle of building healthy relationships amongst an ocean of quirks, failings, foibles and feelings. Just when they thought they had it all together! Earnest. Relatable. Slightly confronting. Very Untidy. A little bit silly.

每个人都必然会面对死亡，但你是否想过它在你生命中意味着什么？当至亲或相识的人突然离世，你的世界观会被颠覆吗？为什么我们对这个人生中唯一的大事，却如此陌生又如此心虚？正如节目中引用的那句话：“很多丧失不是一场暴雨，而是一生的潮湿”。本期节目，Slightly Open邀请到专注于生命文化品牌“归丛”的创始人高古奇（古师傅）。古师傅曾是家具品牌“梵几”的创始人，他因连续经历父母骤然离世，陷入极度虚无和意义丧失感，随后决心投身殡葬行业。他认为中国现代人对死亡的认知已达“历史最低的时刻”，决心推动人们真诚地表达悲伤，而非压抑情感。节目中，我们探讨了丧亲者在情绪最低落时，面对葬礼流程的困境，以及“归丛”如何通过非标告别式 (如延期追思会、灵魂晚餐)创造安全、得以宣泄的场域。古师傅分享了对死亡的恐惧是“被植入”的，可以通过设计美学理念来消除。我们也探讨了对死亡的思考如何引导我们思考“怎么好活着”。疗愈的关键在于“正视”和“表达”，帮助人们将“一生潮湿”的丧失感转化为平靜。时间轴 00:01:20丨古师傅的自我介绍以及对归丛的介绍。归丛——从丧葬美学到生命文化00:02:00丨Coco：坚持做这期节目，因为父亲的离世带来了人生的巨大转变，发现“生死和人生在我面前从去年起就再不一样”00:07:30丨希望中国人在面对死亡这件事情上，我们能相对的真诚00:17:17丨中国古代历史上非常重视死亡,与当今社会形成反差00:23:20丨在顺利面前,美根本不重要00:29:40丨在推翻和传承的过程中,自己内心的声音最重要00:32:20丨中国与外国对于死亡的不同看法00:54:50丨小时候未得到正确的死亡教育,很有可能变成未来面对死亡的一个阴影00:55:50丨对死亡话题感兴趣以及不断做自我探索的人的画像是多元的01:01:30丨归丛的来历：对于宇宙观的一个思考01:03:30丨三场仪式的故事01:13:40丨给逝者的一餐,缘起和眼泪01:19:50丨对电影《破地狱》的感受,破地狱破的是中间的那个圈01:25:40丨当别人说做这件事不好,我只听我自己的01:31:20丨不同年龄段的人对死亡的看法是多元的01:34:20丨逝去是否可以疗愈本期书籍《要有光》《前世今生》互动时刻古师傅说，疗愈当中，有很大一部分是正视，正视之后有很大一部分是表达。在生活中，你是否曾找到过一个安全且真诚的场域，能让你表达对逝者的思念？关于生命的丧失，你最大的“未表达”情感是什么？欢迎在评论区留言互动。

Instead of calling it quits, Mike grabbed his phone and turned their nightly before-bed chats into the new recording studio. This episode takes you behind the scenes of their unexpected pivot, the sweetest conversations that came out of it, and how a tech fail turned into one of the most genuine moments they’ve ever shared on the pod.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

The College Football Playoff madness has off you icially begun, and if there's one thing we've learned… it's that drama is undefeated. This week, Josh & Joe dive headfirst into every ounce of chaos surrounding the playoff picture — from the programs screaming the loudest (yes, Notre Dame, we're talking about you) to the ones who should honestly be rioting in the streets (Vanderbilt, we're on your side).The boys go all-in on the debates, dropping shockingly logical cases for why JMU and Tulane should be in the playoffs. Their reasoning? Bold. Wild. Slightly delusional. But weirdly convincing. You will be entertained.Then comes the full first-round College Football Playoff breakdown — who's advancing, who's doomed, who's covering the spread even in defeat, and who might pull off the biggest shocker of the postseason. This episode is absolutely loaded with CFP predictions, hot takes, conspiracy theories, and playoff chaos.Meanwhile in the NFL, the playoff race is heating up like a microwave burrito, and some teams are starting to feel that percentage drop in real time. The boys break down the biggest Week 14 matchups, what each game means for the playoff picture, and which teams might be cooked, revived, or heading for a dramatic December collapse.And of course — it wouldn't be JMO without the weekly NFL picks, featuring a fresh batch of JMO Specials.

Running out of things to say, really. Slightly improved, yes. But the result is sadly, awfully, terribly predictable. Archie, Chris and Mark do their best to think of some original light to shine into the December gloom.Part One, the game. A bright start followed by a slow decline but some positives and some experienced heads did give some temporary hope that midweek cup success may have provided a platform. Instead, a soft penalty (we would absolutely have wanted it given for us) and very little else condemns us to a fourth consecutive home defeat. Should the youth players get more of a chance? Should we at least try to win?Part Two tries to zoom out a little. Relegation seems ever more possible but a few quick wins and the division is tight enough that it could all be okay. Or doomed by February. And a well constructed, well received Chairman's Chat at risk of being undermined by actions and words on and off the field.What could be better than a trip to Wycombe next?

What does it mean that there is a Friday podcast edition of Charlottesville Community Engagement? In case anyone asks, an explanation: This newsletter began in July 2020 as a podcast as a next phase of work I began at the beginning of the pandemic in March 2020. In the spring of 2024, I began producing a radio program for WTJU and decided to separate that production into a separate process.Now it is December 5, 2025 and there is enough information to get out a podcast before the next radio show. See below for some introspection about why I hope to increase the amount of audio in the future.In this edition:* Virginia's elections are certified; Catalano holds on to Stanardsville seat on Greene Board (read the story)* Charlottesville PC takes first look at draft Capital Improvement Program (read the story)* Albemarle Supervisors ask local legislators for help on transportation funding (read the story)* Charlottesville moves step closer to construction of Barracks-Emmet Streetscape (read the story)* Charlottesville City Council fixes an underpayment to the area 's tourism agency (read the story)Charlottesville Community Engagement is a reader-supported publication. To receive new posts and support my work, consider becoming a free or paid subscriber.Today's shout-out: Town Crier Productions!This newsletter as well as Information Charlottesville are the two main platforms for Town Crier Productions. That's the name for the business entity I created in 2020 when I decided to launch a new chapter in journalism.I've been able to sustain this work and cover many stories over the past five years because of the many ways people can support the business. One way is to go for a paid subscription here on Substack which goes a long way to support all of the research and reporting.Other ways? Well, you can always consider taking out a sponsorship or advertisement or whatever it is called when you want to get a message out to draw attention to your business, organization, event, or anything that might fit in with this particular audience. Drop me a line if you want to see the fledgling media kit and help me experiment.But also, thanks to all of you who read this each time it is published. A publication like this may not be for everyone, but it has found an audience. We're all in this together, and I'm grateful for any support so I can keep paying attention and sharing what I find.So the real shout-out here - is to all of you! After all, isn't that what a Town Crier does?Thoughts about why this edition:Before I launched this newsletter in July 2020, I had created a website that I was going to call This is Charlottesville. If you look closely, that's the first domain I registered sometime after I left my last journalism job.This particular edition is going to be reposted to the Charlottesville Podcasting Network, a moribund website that a longtime steward fixed this week for me. I created the website in the spring of 2005 when I realized I could post longer versions of my freelance stories to a place on the Internet I could control.Twenty years ago was an epoch ago. Social media was in its infancy but in Charlottesville, we had cvillenews.com which was an early gathering point for those who were online early when you needed a computer to get to all of it.I had no idea how to make money off of the podcast site, and a first version of my business ended up being about taking whatever revenue I could with not a lot of thought about what it was I was doing. There were some really big failures and I was grateful when I had the opportunity to join Charlottesville Tomorrow.I spent eleven years there and took a break from journalism. But from the beginning of the interregnum, I wanted to have a place to experiment with getting information out to people. When the pandemic hit, I took a leap of faith to start what was intended to be a simple newscast. But that grew and grew until I'm at this point where I've got to fix a lot of things if I'm going to stay in the air.There are many flaws with aspects of my current way of producing things. There are so many dumb errors that go out to thousands of people because I don't have a second set of eyes.Until the spring of 2024, all of the newsletter were podcasts but I broke the production into separate processes when I began doing the radio version for WTJU.Doing so lost an editorial check. It's very hard to read copy from a script with errors in it. I'm prone to silly errors and I can be hasty trying to get information out to people.But when I read the copy, I have to fix it. One solution would be to at least produce the narration for every version before I hit send.Next week there is no radio show as WTJU holds their Classical Marathon from December 8 to December 14. That may mean I take a fresh approach to audio production.In any case, this is the introspection about audio. I hope you enjoy the day. This is a public episode.

In this episode of Got Somme, Angus O’Loughlin and Master Sommelier Carlos Santos take you into one of Italy’s most iconic wine rivalries: Barolo vs Barbaresco. We break down everything from grape variety, regional differences, aging laws, price, aromas, palate structure, and why—despite their similarities—one of these wines consistently demands 30 to 40 percent more at retail. And yes… we revisit the infamous first attempt at this episode, where a $500 bottle of Barolo turned out to be faulty. Cork taint. Wet cardboard. Pain. Watch here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DAmb5p34Q-I&t=20s If you’ve ever wondered:– Why is Barolo more expensive?– Can you actually tell them apart in a blind tasting?– What aromas define Nebbiolo?– Which wine should YOU be buying? …this is your episode. Watch Carlos Blind Taste this Barolo before we recorded the episode here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=31Sawb7Elp4&t=5s SPONSORS Grays.comWhere we sourced today’s beautifully aged bottles→ Buy well-stored, premium wine (and avoid the faulty disasters we once had) https://www.grays.com/search/wine RIEDELWe are tasting from the RIEDEL Performance Pinot Noir glasses—perfect for Nebbiolo’s aromatics. https://www.riedel.com/en-au/shop#sort=bestSeller (Australians use code: GOTSOMME New Zealand: GOTSOMMENZ at check out for 20% off) KEY MOMENTS & TAKEAWAYS 1. Barolo vs Barbaresco: What’s the Actual Difference? Both wines are made from Nebbiolo, grown in Piedmont, but come from different sub-regions: Barolo: Southwest of Alba, slightly cooler, higher altitude Barbaresco: Northeast of Alba, warmer, more perfumed Even though the geographical distance is small, the microclimate differences lead to two very different personalities in the glass. 2. Aging Laws That Drive the Price Barolo DOCG 38 months aging (At least 18 months in oak) Reserva: 62 months aging minimum (at least 18 months in oak) Barbaresco DOCG 26 months aging (9 months in oak) Reserva: 50 months aging (9 months in oak) Holding wine for 3–5 years before it earns $1 dramatically affects price—and explains why Barolo is typically more expensive. 3. Appearance: What Nebbiolo Looks Like Both wines show the classic: Brick/rust rim Light colour intensity Transparent core But today, the Barbaresco is noticeably lighter at the rim than the Barolo—something even Carlos says isn’t always the case. 4. Nose: The Aroma Clues Barbaresco More perfumed More lifted red fruits Floral (rose, dried flowers) Slightly softer aromas Barolo More rustic and powerful Leather Tar and asphalt Tobacco Darker, deeper aromatics Carlos also explains why Nebbiolo often shows “tar”—a hallmark of the grape and winemaking style. 5. Palate: Similar DNA, Different Personalities Both wines show: High tannin High acidity Elevated alcohol Intense structure But the Barbaresco presents as more elegant and delicate, while the Barolo pushes toward intensity, rustic tannin, and power.

Best Pick with John Dorney, Jessica Regan and Tom Salinsky Episode 324: Singin' in the Rain Released 26 November 2025 For this episode, we watched the 1952 MGM musical Singin' in the Rain, directed by Stanley Donen and Gene Kelly who also starred alongside Donald O'Connor, Debbie Reynolds and Jean Hagen. Arthur Freed produced and wrote most of the songs alongside composer Nacio Herb Brown. Slightly overshadowed at the time by the enormous commercial and critical success of An American in Paris the year before, this movie is now widely regarded as the absolute pinnacle of the golden age of Hollywood musicals.

A slight jump in retail sales, adding to months of big gains. AP correspondent Mike Hempen reports.

An amazing dinner last night that brought the heat!  Rotell tomatoes with GHOST PEPPERS along with a can of regular tomatoes and green chili's, small ground beef meatballs all simmered in a beef bone broth...served over penne pasta.  I did add in a small squirt of local honey to cut the heat back just a touch for my wife.  Sweet compliments and lowers the heat...

On this Thanksgiving week 2025 and episode 304 of Take Flight Weekly, I revisit one of the most powerful performance basics in my playbook: gratitude. Not the soft version. The real thing. The kind that rewires your brain and anchors you when life is chaotic. I'll walk you through my personal affirmation that starts with "I am so happy and grateful," unpack why I built it the way I did, and connect it to what the science of gratitude is proving right now. Then we'll get tactical with a simple, elite-level gratitude strategy you can execute in five minutes a day. In Q4 2010, I was under real financial pressure. The business was hard, the numbers were tight, and I realized I had zero chance of winning if I didn't get control of what was happening between my ears. My goal was simple: Keep my emotional frequency at 51 percent or higher. Slightly more optimistic than pessimistic. Around that time, I was studying Bob Proctor and John Assaraf. They made one point that landed hard: Success starts in your mind long before it shows up in your bank account. So I wrote my own affirmation, and I've now said it tens of thousands of times. Meta-analyses of gratitude interventions show consistent gains in life satisfaction and mental health. Neuroscience work shows that gratitude practices light up reward and regulation centers in the brain. It's not just a "nice idea" anymore. It's a proven performance tool. The Anatomy of My Affirmation → "I AM" – The two most powerful words. Your subconscious accepts whatever follows. → "So happy and grateful" – Happiness and gratitude are inputs, not trophies. They're a frequency you decide to live in. → "That money, success, and introductions" – Gratitude keeps you focused on opportunities you already have. → "Flow to me" – The kind of flow that shows up when your mindset, actions, and relationships are aligned. → "In ever increasing quantities from a myriad of different sources" – Gratitude is a flywheel that compounds over time. → "For the betterment of all those involved" – I never wanted success that only worked for me. → "My life is perfect" – I choose to see my current reality as raw material, not punishment. → "Every day, in every way, I am getting better and better" – Pure 1% better math. What the Science Says → Gratitude improves mental health – Reduces anxiety and depression → Gratitude changes the brain – Activates reward and regulation regions → Gratitude improves physical health and sleep → Gratitude strengthens relationships → Structured gratitude tools work in as little as 6-10 sessions Three Gratitude Habits for Advisors → The 60-Second Morning Affirmation Before you touch your phone, stand up, breathe deeply, and say your affirmation. Say it like you mean it. → The Weekly Gratitude Text or Voice Memo Once a week, send one client, mentor, or team member a note saying specifically why you appreciate them. No pitch. Pure appreciation. → Gratitude Reset in Real Time When anxiety spikes, stop for thirty seconds. Name three things you're grateful for in that exact moment. Use gratitude as a pattern interrupt. I coach to happy and grateful results, not production. Production is a lagging indicator. Execution of being grateful is a leading indicator. When you're grounded, happy, and genuinely grateful, your business expands with less friction. That's not woo-woo. That's strategy. ━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━

If you've ever stared at a “competition worthy” image and thought, “Is this actually any good, or am I just emotionally attached and mildly delusional?” then this episode is for you. In this one, I'm lifting the lid on what really happens inside a judge's head when your prints hit the panel: the mindset you need, the mistakes we see over and over again, and the tiny details that can quietly kill an otherwise beautiful image. We'll talk blown highlights, grubby greys, over sharpening, dodgy mounts, vignettes turned up to eleven, and why blindly following the latest photo trend might actually sink your chances. We'll also get into mentors, titles, paper choice, time pressure (my personal kryptonite), and why the only real failure in competitions is not to enter at all. If you're thinking about qualifications, print comps or you just want to finish your images to a higher standard, grab a drink, have a listen, and then go and do something brave with your work.

Slightly delayed, but this a very interesting episode on open ankle fracture dislocations like the gruesome injury sustained by Cam Skattebo on a nationally televised game. We talk about some of the concerns associated with an open fractures and the standard treatment options. We compare this injury to other similar injuries and try to predict the career impact this injury will have on this hard charging young player!

0:00 - It's so hard to wrap our heads around these enigmatic Broncos. But all accounts, they shouldn't be winning with the struggling offense they keep putting on the field. But why are they winning? Because their defense is ELITE. If the offense could play even SLIGHTLY better, who knows how good this team would be?12:06 - How do we feel about Bo right now? Are you starting to lose faith in him at all? Is your BOlief slipping even a little bit? Or do you still Bolieve as much as always?34:31 - The Rockies actually hired someone! They have a new Head of Baseball Operations AND they hired him from outside the Rockies organization! Go figure! Do we like the hire?Also, the Nuggets are playing the Warriors tonight in PIPING HOT EMIRATES NBA CUP GROUP STAGE ACTION BABYYYYYY!!!! What are the Keys to a Nuggets victory?

Reese kicks things off with a heartfelt (and hilarious) Support Black Businesses PSA while rocking his “Fresh Prince of Capricorn” tee from his buddy Ryan (IG: @DapperDopeness). He wastes zero time diving into a weekend recap with Ramont featuring a birthday brunch for Moyatu (IG @TheLipMama), a pillow mist–making class, dope art, and some very debatable food options that lead to even more debate between the guys.Ramont reflects on what it's like being the lone sober friend surrounded by tipsy chaos and shares a front-row story of a disgruntled customer being humbled in real time. Reese, meanwhile, gives a play-by-play of his Don Julio fueled adventures: catching a head injury, moonlighting as a bathroom bodyguard, and holding wallets like he worked for TSA.The chaos continues when Ramont plugs a friend's new business (IG @MyPsychiatristFriend) while Reese details his encounters with a new work auntie and her questionable wig choices. To top it all off, a faithful listener (Glenn from the “Co-Worker Episode”) calls Reese out for a minor storytelling discrepancy…emphasis on minor.It's layered like brunch plates and just as unpredictable... another classic from Lil R and R Podcast.WHAT WE LEARNED:Ramont advised that age has no place in workplace dramaReese met a man with a boatQuestions, Concerns or Feedback- RamontAndReese@gmail.com Hosted on Acast.

Ben and Meg banter about the slightly shorter-than-usual duration of the offseason, how big the WBC will be, and a few managerial hirings. After that (41:53), they talk to FanGraphs lead prospect analyst Eric Longenhagen about Munetaka Murakami and this offseason's most promising free agents from international leagues, what we've learned about Roki Sasaki and […]

Mike’s co-host for the week had a scheduling mix-up, so he decided to start a new segment called “ChatGPT Therapist” — a filterless, slightly messy, and no-holds-barred answer to all your questions! The first question is a deep dive into MIKE.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
