Hour 2 continues with the WNBA as Paul and Michael give their takes on the much-maligned 30th Anniversary poster that the league promoted on Wednesday, pointing out what they'd change and which reactions to the poster may be overreactions. The conversation flips back to the college ranks to discuss the multiple changes likely coming to NCAA football next year, including tweaks to the calendar for practices, training camps and the transfer portal. We wrap up the show quickly answering a text question about the way NIL works from a process standpoint and who is in charge of what for securing payments for players.

Paul welcomes Ed Helms into the Unspooled booth for a deep dive into Top Secret!, the gloriously absurd 1984 comedy from ZAZ while Amy is away. Between stories about Meet Dave, Ed's lost role as “Lieutenant Buttocks,” and a celebration of his history podcast SNAFU, the two make the case that Top Secret! may be even funnier than Airplane! or The Naked Gun — just harder to categorize.

Ep274 of the pod saw us review probably the craziest game of football any of us have ever seen, as Newport County came from behind to win 3-2 in the 108th minute against Oldham Athletic, putting us on the cusp of retaining our Football League status. A breathtaking game, with goals galore, a sending off, a missed penalty, a lengthy injury - all it needed was a dog on the pitch and it would have had everything. Many of you joined us after the game at the Riverside - but the sheer volume of background noise plus a technical SNAFU meant that the audio was sadly unusable. We're really sorry, but hope that those of you who came along enjoyed being part of the pod family over a beer or two. We were certainly grateful for your company. In lieu of that recording, Jamie and Ed hastily got together virtually on Sunday to relive a truly unforgettable day.Do check our website for all the pod info you need, or drop us a line on the socials if you have anything to tell us. As usual, our theme tune is the original 1973 recording of Come On The County - and we are brought to you in association with our friends at the Riverside Sports Bar.Until next time, look after yourselves and each other, and above all Keep It County.

In this month's mailbag episode, John and Mike own up to how they misidentified a 60th Anniversary Edition in Brittany Blue during the New Ford WHQ Grand Opening episode (well, more like they give an excuse), and then unsuccessfully field a question about how many of those were produced in that color. The guys then handlea request to discuss a publishedcomment about the latest Ford LED headlamp assembly and module replacement costs (about $600 for some new Mustangs but up to $3,000 on other Fords) vs. just replacing a $10 bulb. John also discovers a years-old email from his Spam file asking about the Ford Performance Pick Car show award cling.

This conversation between Robin Zander and Gagan Biyani, founder of Maven and early contributor to Udemy, Lyft, and Spread, explores the intersection of growth, education, and entrepreneurship. The session begins with a brief mindfulness exercise for the audience before diving into Biyani's career and his perspective on growth. He distinguishes growth from traditional marketing by emphasizing that growth is a systematic approach that integrates product, analytics, and user behavior to drive scalable results, rather than solely focusing on branding or messaging. Biyani also addresses the ethics of growth, noting that while manipulation is unavoidable in communication, respecting users' agency and providing genuine value is key. Fear or guilt about "manipulating" others often hinders action, whereas ethical influence fosters trust and long-term engagement. Drawing from his own experiences, he underscores the importance of providing optimism and clarity, rather than relying on fear-based tactics, in both marketing and education. Education remains a central theme of Biyani's work. At Udemy, he helped pioneer live, video-based courses to make learning more accessible online, though he notes systemic barriers prevented it from fully replacing traditional college education. Maven continues this mission with cohort-based programs led by industry experts, helping professionals rapidly gain practical skills. Biyani highlights the transformative potential of AI in upskilling, explaining that while AI won't replace human teachers, it significantly expands access and efficiency for learners across industries. Reflecting on his broader entrepreneurial journey, Biyani shares lessons from Lyft and Spread. Lyft demonstrated the power of timing and product-market fit, while Spread taught him that execution alone is not enough – understanding the market and being "right" about demand is essential. Across all ventures, he emphasizes pattern recognition, balancing exploration with focused execution, and learning from successes and failures alike. Ultimately, Biyani's philosophy is to tackle challenging problems that align with personal strengths, respect users' agency, and leverage insight and experimentation to create meaningful impact.

Jameela welcomes Ed Helms (The Office, The Hangover, SNAFU podcast) and Brian Huskey (Veep, Bob's Burgers, Community) for a masterclass in public humiliation, bodily betrayal, and the art of staying professional while everything is actively going wrong.Ed shares about his resting plane face, then revisits an Office scene that turned into a sealed-car panic situation. From there, things escalate in Bangkok, where one innocent street food decision leads to him shirtless on a red-light-district sidewalk between takes, being fed Sprite through a straw by Bradley Cooper and Zach Galifianakis.Meanwhile, Brian's commitment to “the bit” reaches medically concerning levels, as a flirtation story becomes a full fainting incident that nobody recognises as a real emergency. Add in digestive disasters, professional embarrassment, and the delicate balance between dignity and dehydration, and you've got another episode of Wrong Turns doing exactly what it says on the tin. No lessons. No recovery arc. Just three people trying to survive their own bodies in public.Jameela's Substack is A Low Desire To Please, you can also find her on Instagram, TikTok and YouTube.Our consulting producer is Colin Anderson.Wrong Turns was created and produced by Jameela Jamil and Stewart Bailey.Listen to Wrong Turns on Amazon Music or wherever you find your podcasts.

This week on Office Ladies 6.0, the ladies take a break from their breakdown of The Paper to join their buddy Ed Helms over on his podcast, SNAFU, to relive one of history's biggest “work whoopsies” of all time (we've all messed up at work but have you ever LOST a nuclear weapon?!) Jenna, Angela and Ed also reminisce on their years working together on The Office and share behind-the-scenes memories, cast camaraderie, and what made those long conference room days so special. The ladies will be back next week to keep breaking down The Paper. Until then, pull up a chair, try not to misplace any warheads, and enjoy!

Adam Grant is a thinker. The kind of thinking that makes you think twice. Which is precisely what the victims of a certain financial fraud deployment have been told throughout history. But today, Ed and Adam head to the top of this pyramid, to unveil the origin of the ultimate form of foul play: The Ponzi Scheme.

Kelly Corrigan is all class. As an award-winning journalist, podcaster, and author, her insights are a breath of fresh air. Today, Ed and Kelly cover Operation Cottage, a screwy attempt by American and Canadian forces to recapture the Aleutian Islands during WWII. But when the Allied soldiers arrived, all was not as it seemed.

Kara Swisher and Scott Galloway are two titans of podcasting. Their ever-prescient analyses of today's political, technological, and cultural worlds have set an elevated standard for journalists across the board. Today, they help Ed analyze an event from our past that may feel eerily familiar: The Palmer Raids. Although they took place in 1919, their echoes in modern times may just give you goosebumps.
