Extremsport! Woran denkt ihr da? Skateboards? Snowboards? Alles ganz nett und so, aber wie wäre es, wenn ihr Ollies mit einem Zug ausführt?Yup, einen echten, großen Zug auf Schienen, den ihr mit 500 Sachen über Schienen jagt und dabei Sprünge, Grinds und Wallrides vollführt. Willkommen bei Denshattack! In unserer heutigen Folge spricht Micha mit Franziska und Christian über dieses herrlich überdrehte Arcade-Spiel, das Züge zu Extremsportgeräten macht. Es geht darum, warum die Mischung aus Tempo, Tricksystem, Neon-Dystopie und absurd konsequenter Inszenierung so gut funktioniert, warum das Spiel immer wieder in einen Flow zieht und weshalb hier eine vollkommen verrückte Idee mit voller Überzeugung zu Ende gedacht wird.Außerdem geht es um die Fragen, die Denshattack! über seine Mechanik hinaus interessant machen: die Reise durch Japan, den Konflikt zwischen Kuppelstädten und Außengebieten, den Soundtrack und die Art, wie das Spiel seine Welt erzählt.Mehr von Franziska könnt ihr hier lesen:https://www.franziskabehner.deDen Podcast von Christian findet ihr hier: https://open.spotify.com/show/03utqYjSaFVR5qX3LJTvE1?si=81bb2d2bc9954ce5 Hosted on Acast.

“The difference between a good businessman and a bad businessman is the good one fails and learns.”A tradie builds momentum fast. Makes money fast. Spends it faster. Learns the hard way about GST, tax, super, and the cost of looking like you've “made it”. Then the pressure stacks up, burnout hits, and the whole thing starts to wobble.Andrew Hopkins (Hoppo from Hopkins Construction) walks through the real comeback: rebuilding a construction business with better boundaries, a stronger brand, and a work week that actually fits parenting. It also gets practical on social media for tradies (recording vs editing), why AI in construction is useless without clean systems, and how to handle trolls without losing sleep.If you're a builder, carpenter, landscaper, or tradie thinking about starting a construction business, this is the reality check and the roadmap.CHAPTER MARKERS00:00: Intro04:36: Meet Andrew “Hoppo” Hopkins (Hopkins Construction)06:09: Leaving school early and starting a carpentry apprenticeship07:00: Getting suspended from an apprenticeship08:50: Snowboard accident + income protection for tradies11:05: Starting a business naive (tax, super, entitlements)13:11: Tradie overspending (Rangers, trailers, debt)18:10: Partnership breakup + learning from failure22:07: Burnout: when the business runs but you crash23:10: Tradie dads being present is hard27:13: Rebuilding life and work after the split29:10: Boundaries and setting expectations with clients31:39: Social media on site: recording vs editing37:31: AI in construction: fundamentals first41:10: How many hours content creation really takes48:10: Weird brand deals, saying no, and not being a sellout52:15: Trolls, comments, and protecting younger tradies56:28: MEGT Mindful Moment: advice for apprentices starting a businessOur Sponsors:Pro Clima - https://mindful-builder.captivate.fm/proclimaMEGT - https://mindful-builder.captivate.fm/megtConnect with us on Instagram: @themindfulbuilderpodConnect with Hamish:Instagram: @sanctumhomesWebsite: www.yoursanctum.com.au/Connect with Matt: Instagram: @carlandconstructionsWebsite: www.carlandconstructions.com/Mentioned in this episode:Proclima Sponsor
What role do Japan Societies and Japan-America Societies play in strengthening the relationship between the United States and Japan? In this episode, the Krewe sits down with Dr. Joshua Walker, former President and CEO of the Japan Society in New York, to discuss U.S.-Japan relations, the unique impact organizations of all sizes can have at every level of cultural exchange, and why local interactions remain essential to the partnership between both nations.

Hey friends, Chase here. Every summer, I revisit conversations from the archive that have stood the test of time. Not because I'm nostalgic, but because the best ideas don't expire. They deepen. This is another installment of Summer School—episodes I go back to when I'm stuck, looking for the person in my network who's already lived the answer. This one with Tony Robbins is a perfect example. I've been navigating some peak performance challenges around my physical body—joints breaking down from a life as an athlete. Tony has spent years deep in the breakthroughs happening in precision medicine and regenerative health. I originally brought him on the show to learn what was possible. I'm bringing the conversation back for Summer School because those questions matter even more now. Tony is a legend: #1 New York Times bestselling author, life and business strategist, entrepreneur, philanthropist, and peak performance expert. He's coached world-class athletes, entertainers, Fortune 500 CEOs, and U.S. presidents. He's also a friend. I've been front row at his multi-day seminars. I've used his techniques—from mental training to visualization to priming—and yes, I've walked on fire with him. But this conversation goes beyond mindset. It goes into the habits that separate people who are successful and fulfilled… and into Life Force, Tony's book on the regenerative medicine breakthroughs that can transform the quality of your life—and the lives of the people you love. "Success without fulfillment is the ultimate failure." — Tony Robbins Summer School: Tony Robbins on Peak Performance, Precision Medicine, and Transforming Your Quality of Life Tony's obsession is a simple question with a lifelong answer: what actually changes the quality of people's lives? He frames the work as pattern recognition, pattern utilization, and pattern creation—learning from the best so you don't waste 10 or 20 years figuring it out the hard way. Then standing on those shoulders long enough to create your own. That lens shows up everywhere in this episode: in habits, in health, and in mindset. After being told some of his own health challenges were irreversible, Tony experienced firsthand how regenerative technology didn't just help him heal—it made him stronger. And the bigger point he makes is that these breakthroughs aren't reserved for the ultra-wealthy. As technology doubles in power and halves in cost, access keeps expanding. Medicine isn't the whole story, though. Tony also deconstructs the patterns of top performers—because your habits and your mindset still determine whether any of it matters. What You'll Hear in This Episode Why Tony does this work—and how growing up with pain made him obsessed with helping people reclaim themselves The habits of people who are both successful and fulfilled, starting with a mission bigger than yourself Why progress equals happiness, and why comfort quietly kills growth How to prime your day on purpose: cold water, gratitude, three-to-thrive, sincere compliments, and doing the hardest thing first The personal story behind Life Force—family illness, a pituitary tumor, a torn rotator cuff, spinal stenosis, and the stem cell turning point What's changing in regenerative medicine: stem cells, gene editing, diagnostics, sleep science, and more How to use Life Force as a guidebook, not a 600-page homework assignment Why mindset still decides the outcome—including the surprising power of belief, placebos, and your "emotional home" Patterns of Peak Performance One of the most useful parts of this conversation is how concrete it gets. Identifying patterns that already work for peak performers can save years of trial and error. In this episode, three keep coming up: 1. Have a mission Have something you care about more than yourself. It could be your family, your craft, your business, your community—anything real. Tony's blunt about this: when people have something more important than themselves, they don't run out of energy or excitement. When it's only about you, comfort creeps in. And comfort is where growth dies. His one-word formula for happiness is the same one he's taught for decades: progress. If you're not making progress, you're not growing. And if you're not growing, you're not giving. Growing and giving is the game. 2. Prime with gratitude Most people assume their thoughts are simply "their thoughts." Tony's point is that your thoughts are primed by your environment—so you might as well prime yourself on purpose. His morning starts with cold water (not because he loves it, but because it trains the brain: when I say go, we go). Then a 10-minute priming practice built around gratitude, a prayer-type focus, and "three to thrive"—three outcomes he sees and feels as already done. Why gratitude? Because you can't be grateful and angry at the same time. You can't be grateful and fearful at the same time. Most people, as he puts it, have a highway to stress and a dirt road to happiness. Priming is how you reverse that wiring. He also leaves someone a sincere audio compliment each day—not generic praise, but something specific that deepens the relationship. You can learn his free priming process at tonyrobbins.com/priming. 3. Do the hardest thing first Difficult work needs your best energy. Tony's rule is simple: crush the hardest thing early, create momentum, and let everything else get easier. How you start and end your day both matter. Of the two, he says starting well may matter most—because it frames everything that follows. Timecodes So You Can Jump Around 00:00 – Welcome and why this episode is part of Summer School 04:23 – Tony Robbins joins the show 05:03 – What gets Tony up in the morning: impact, reclaiming yourself, and pattern recognition 11:37 – Habits of the most successful and fulfilled people 13:16 – Progress equals happiness; growing and giving as the game 14:44 – Priming your day: cold plunge, gratitude, three-to-thrive, hardest thing first 20:35 – Why Tony wrote Life Force—and the personal experiences behind it 22:21 – The cancer story that shifted him from victimhood to biohacking 25:20 – Pituitary tumor diagnosis, second opinions, and learning to question standard answers 28:53 – Snowboard crash, torn rotator cuff, spinal stenosis—and the stem cell turning point 31:37 – Regenerative medicine breakthroughs worth knowing 38:54 – How to approach Life Force as a guidebook 43:19 – Access and cost: why these tools aren't only for the wealthy 47:00 – Mindset, placebos, and upgrading your emotional home 52:38 – Closing thoughts Why This Conversation Still Matters It's easy to treat health, energy, and longevity as tomorrow's problem—something you'll deal with when you have more time, more money, or a clearer diagnosis. This conversation makes that delay harder to justify. Tony's point isn't that you need every breakthrough tomorrow. It's that ignorance isn't bliss. Ignorance is pain. And in the worst cases, it's preventable loss. The diagnostic tools alone—especially if you're 40 or older—can change the trajectory of a life before a crisis shows up. At the same time, he keeps bringing it back to something simpler and more immediate: how you start your day, what you care about more than yourself, and whether you're actually making progress. The regenerative medicine is extraordinary. The habits and mindset are what make any of it usable. That's why this episode earned a Summer School seat. The science has only accelerated since we first recorded it. The human part—fulfillment, discipline, belief—hasn't gotten any less essential.

Free priming practice: tonyrobbins.com/priming Follow Tony: Instagram | X/Twitter | Website Questions to Reflect On What do I care about more than myself—and is that mission actually driving my days? Where have I confused success with fulfillment? Am I priming my mornings on purpose, or being primed by accident? What's the hardest thing I keep delaying—and what would change if I did it first? Am I waiting for a health crisis before I get curious about prevention, diagnostics, or recovery? Where has "I don't have access" become a story that keeps me from doing the homework? What 3–5 things could I do right now—habits, sleep, diagnostics, mindset—to raise the quality of my life and protect the people I love? The Core Idea Peak performance isn't just about grinding harder. It's about recognizing the patterns that create an extraordinary life—then using them, and eventually creating your own. Your body is part of that equation. So is your mind. So is having something you care about enough that you refuse to get comfortable. Tony's invitation is simple and demanding: don't wait until you're forced to pay attention. Learn what's available. Prime your days on purpose. Grow. Give. And don't let an old story about what's "possible for people like me" keep you from tools that could change—or even save—a life. If there's one lesson worth carrying forward from this Summer School session, it's this: Success without fulfillment is the ultimate failure—and progress, in body and mind, is still the most reliable path to both.

You ever sell something online and think, “Cool, smooth transaction, nothing weird will happen here”? Yeah… that's not this episode.On today's funny podcast, Moon casually mentions he sold a signed snowboard to a local guy—no big deal—until the buyer says he's sick… and then completely disappears. Like, ghosted. Gone. Off the grid. And now Moon's stuck in the moral dilemma of the century: How long before you start Googling someone's obituary without looking like a psychopath?Naturally, the show handles this situation with the grace and professionalism you'd expect… which is to say, absolutely none. Within minutes, it turns into a full group debate about social boundaries, internet stalking, and whether checking Facebook for a memorial page is “too far” or just “good customer service.”And because emotional stability isn't really our brand, we pivot straight into Match Up With The Morons, where confidence is high and accuracy is… optional. We're talking wildly incorrect movie trivia, Area 51 confusion that hurts to listen to, and one question that somehow launches a passionate, borderline unnecessary debate about the origins of the Dustbuster.Yes. A vacuum. That's where we're at.Somewhere along the way, we also argue about paper airplane world records, completely butcher basic human biology (breathing is harder than you think, apparently), and prove once again that this funny podcast thrives on chaos, bad guesses, and just enough knowledge to be dangerous.If you enjoy a funny podcast where the conversations spiral, the trivia gets questionable, and nobody leaves smarter—but everyone leaves entertained—this one's for you.Follow The Rizzuto Show → linktr.ee/rizzshow for more from your favorite daily comedy show.Connect with The Rizzuto Show Comedy Podcast online → 1057thepoint.com/RizzShow.Hear The Rizz Show daily on the radio at 105.7 The Point | Hubbard Radio in St. Louis, MO.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

Meg WandishinLast Chair guest Meg Wandishin grew up skiing the slopes of Shawnee Peak (now Pleasant Mountain), a Maine ski area that dates back to 1938, and then moved up to Sunday River. Today, she serves as recruiting manager for Deer Valley Resort, where, among her tasks, is overseeing the resort's popular J-1 visa program for international workers. Wandishin's pathway into recruiting came by chance, tending bar in Maine when a customer saw in her the traits of a charismatic recruiter. After a few years in recruitment for tech companies, she decided to take time to work remotely in Utah. Three months later, she decided to stay – connecting with Deer Valley in 2023. Today, she plays a major role in recruiting more than 3,000 seasonal employees for the resort, with an enthusiastic personality and a pride in helping create the Deer Valley Difference.

Eigentlich wollten Etienne, Nils und Budi nur entspannt über Skiurlaube, Snowboard-Fails und die kleinen wie großen Gefahren auf der Piste sprechen – aber wie das bei ALMOST DAILY so ist, dauert es nicht lange, bis das Gespräch komplett eskaliert. Zwischen Sonnenbrand mit Skibrillenabdruck, schmerzhaften Anfänger-Stürzen und der ewigen Frage, ob Ski oder Snowboard eigentlich cooler ist, landen die drei plötzlich bei einer Erkenntnis, die alles überschattet: BUBBLES lebt. Ja, genau. Der Affe von Michael Jackson. Und damit öffnen sich ganz neue Gedankenspiele: Wie lebt ein ehemaliger Promi-Schimpanse heute? Wird er im Zoo erkannt? Erzählt er anderen Affen von seinem Leben im Rampenlicht? Oder hüllt er sich in Schweigen? Neben dieser wichtigen investigativen Arbeit geht's natürlich wie gewohnt in alle Richtungen: absurde Sportarten, OSCARS, welcher Weltmeistertitel wäre eigentlich der „beste” und es geht ab in wilde Armwrestling-Rabbit-Holes.

A tear came to Utah photographer Re Wikstrom's eyes as she paged through Backcountry Magazine. There she was, her career splashed over the pages of Heather Hansman's Opening the Lens story, profiling Wikstrom and how she has singlehandedly elevated the image of women in skiing. Wikstrom joined Last Chair from the High West Studio, reminiscing her start in photography, the love of passion to the Rocky Mountains, and the joy that shooting continues to provide her and all those around her.A Connecticut native, as a young girl, she loved making photographs with her mother's Ricoh point-and-shoot camera. Soon, she combined her burgeoning love for photography with that of skiing. And at some point, she joined friends in moving west – first to Jackson Hole. But along the way, a big powder season in Utah and the offer of a futon lured her to the Wasatch, where for two decades she has been photographing the Greatest Snow on Earth.Re Wikstrom personifies happiness – something that rubs off on her subjects. As a photographer, she has a knack for managing light and capturing images. But a big part of that is the personality she exudes and the relationships she develops with her subjects.Hands down, Wikstrom is one of the best photographers shooting in the Wasatch. But her work with women is what has elevated her to a special place in her field. It's her mission!“Part of my personal mission is to put more visuals of women athletes out into the world the way I want to see them portrayed,” she says.In her Last Chair interview, Wikstrom takes us back to her childhood and finding a love for photography. She reminsces on negotiating with her mother, who convinced her to finish school before becoming a ski bum. And she proudly walks us through some of her favorite images.This episode will take you high up into the Cottonwoods, early morning on a powder day, as Re Wikstrom chronicles her life as a ski photographer.

Snowboards and Guitars: Circle Strings x Burton at NAMM 2026Some collaborations make you stop and ask how nobody thought of this before.At NAMM Media Day 2026, Sean Martin caught up with Adam Buchwald and William Hylton from Circle Strings, a Vermont-based guitar company, to talk about their partnership with Burton. The concept is deceptively simple: matching snowboards and custom guitars built from the same materials.But the execution is anything but simple.Buchwald owns a wood company in Vermont. He had an entire tree of figured mahogany set aside, waiting for the right project. When Burton agreed to collaborate, he knew exactly what to do with it. The wood became the centerpiece—the visual and sonic foundation of everything that followed.Then William Hylton got to work.Hylton, Circle Strings' designer and CNC specialist, is a backcountry snowboarder. He chose Burton's Alakazam powder board shape as his starting point, drawn to its distinctive tail curve. That curve, he realized, was already guitar-esque. So he wove it through the entire instrument—the fingerboard extension, the pickguard, the bridge tips. The snowboard's DNA lives in every contour.But here's where it gets interesting.The core of a Burton snowboard is wood. Lightweight, durable, designed for performance. Hylton took that same core material and built a guitar body from it. The result feels right in your hands—balanced, resonant, purposeful. It's not a gimmick. It's a genuine instrument built from materials engineered to perform.The acoustic model features a sound hole that mirrors the snowboard's design. Inlays are crafted from Burton's core material, tying everything together visually and conceptually. Both guitars showcase snowflake inlays inspired by Snowflake Bentley, the Vermont photographer who first captured snowflakes in their true crystalline form over a century ago.It's a detail that says everything about how Circle Strings approaches their work. History. Craft. Place.Vermont runs through this collaboration. Buchwald and Hylton are snowboarders. They source their wood locally. They build instruments that reflect where they come from. Burton, also rooted in Vermont's snow culture, was a natural partner.The Burton team, according to Hylton, is thrilled. Many of them are musicians. Some are fans of the artists Circle Strings builds for. The connection was already there—this project just made it tangible.What strikes me about this collaboration is the underlying philosophy. Snowboards and guitars aren't that different when you strip them down. Both are built from wood. Both demand precision. Both exist to help someone express themselves—whether carving powder or carving a melody.Circle Strings and Burton understand this. They didn't force a partnership. They found the common thread and followed it.The result is a set of instruments that belong in a museum and on a stage. Objects that tell a story about craft, place, and the people who refuse to separate their passions.Snowboards and guitars. Same wood. Same craft. Different ride.Sean Martin reports from NAMM 2026 for ITSPmagazine.__________________________This is a Brand Highlight.
