    With Grand Theft Auto VI finally launching this November, we've been left without a key piece of information: Its price. Conjecture and prognostication has run rampant, but now we have confirmation that GTA6's base cost is $80 in the United States, with a $100 version offering players some perks and unlocks. With our long-awaited trip down to Leonida drawing closer on the horizon, we've much to discuss, including our hype level, whether we'll buy the base or special edition, the lack of a real physical version, and -- perhaps most intriguingly -- no new trailer or gameplay videos to help sell a product that (let's be honest) probably doesn't need much help to begin with. Other news this week includes significant layoffs at Sony-owned Bungie, indications that God of War: Laufey may launch as early as Q1 2027, more delisted shovelware tripe removed from PlayStation Store, executive-level issues at FromSoft, and more. Then: Listener inquiries! What's with Steam Machine's absurd price? Should Sony look to invest in any of Xbox's distressed assets? Why did PlayStation even bother publishing Midnight Murder Club if they were only going to ignore it? Will Chris and Colin one day have their shared ex-psychiatrist on the show to discuss our many mental ailments?

    Episode 4156 │ June 22, 2026 The silence around the killing of children is not a failure of the system. It is the system working exactly as designed. Dispatch One names it. WHAT THIS EPISODE COVERS  Dispatch One of The Eighteenth Brumaire of Donald Trump opens a five-part series built on months of research by applying Karl Marx's dialectical method — not his ideology — to the documented record of what the world's power structure is actually doing to its most vulnerable: 20,000 confirmed children killed in Gaza, 175 children killed in a pink schoolhouse in southern Iran by a US Tomahawk missile aimed by an AI targeting system that didn't know it was a school, 12 million children in modern slavery generating $236 billion annually, and 40,000 children mining coltan in armed-group-controlled Congo for supply chains confirmed by Global Witness to include Sony, Microsoft, Amazon, and Nvidia. The banking system keeps running, the arms contracts keep flowing, the UN Security Council keeps issuing statements, and 1,118 people were convicted last year against a $236 billion global industry — and Scott Kesterson names what that pattern actually is: not failure, not incapacity, but a permission structure — a deliberate institutional choice about what children are worth made by people with the power to choose otherwise. The episode ends not with resolution but with a question: what would you expect if it was your child? KEY QUESTIONS ADDRESSED What is the difference between institutional failure and a permission structure — and what does the documented record of banking continuity, arms contracts, supply chains, and Security Council vetoes prove about which one is operating? What does the coltan in your phone have to do with armed rebel groups in the Congo, children exposed to radiation in mining pits, and a US federal court that confirmed tech companies forced children to work to meet their demand — then absolved them legally? How does Karl Marx's dialectical method — strip away the theater, expose what is actually moving underneath — apply to the present moment without endorsing the ideology that destroyed a hundred million lives?

    Jim Hill and Dan Graney dig into a wild week of Marvel speculation, from murky Avengers: Doomsday leak drama to Sony's carefully controlled Spider-Man: Brand New Day rollout. They also spotlight the Muppets' latest Marvel crossover before Dan unveils a Doctor Doom theory that may reframe Robert Downey Jr.'s MCU return entirely. Plus, brisket, burnt ends, Muppet Treasure Island covers, and one very big question: what if Tony Stark was never the rule, but the exception? HIGHLIGHTS • Jim and Dan break down the blurry Avengers: Doomsday footage leak and the debate over whether it was real, AI-enhanced, or both. • Robert Downey Jr. and the Russo Brothers tease Doomsday as a structurally ambitious, emotionally complex follow-up to Infinity War and Endgame. • Spider-Man: Brand New Day ticket sales arrive with a tiny cast video instead of the trailer fans expected. • The new Brand New Day trailer points toward a Spidey-versus-Hulk showdown and a world where almost no one remembers Peter Parker. • The hosts dig into the mystery of who still remembers Peter Parker, from Savage Hulk to a possible Jean Grey connection. • Marvel's The Muppets Take the Marvel Universe celebrates The Muppet Show's 50th anniversary with Kermit, Gonzo, Deadpool, and one very mean Uncle Ben joke. • Dan lays out his big Doctor Doom theory: what if Doom is the multiversal constant and Tony Stark was the one heroic anomaly? • Jim connects the theory back to Doctor Strange's “one” winning timeline and the possibility that the MCU only ever had one good Tony Stark.

    Welcome to Multiverse News, your source for information about all your favorite fictional universes.Everyone's forgotten Peter Parker…or have they? Sony gave us a second full trailer for Spider-Man: Brand New Day and the interwebs are buzzing about it. We get longer looks at Mark Ruffalo's Bruce Banner/Hulk and Jon Bernthal's Frank Castle/Punisher in the film, as well as allusions to the big bad of the movie - though Tom Holland recently said on the press tour that the antagonist has not been figured out yet by fans. Films continue to top each other's openings at the box office this year, with Toy Story 5 having the current title of best opening of the year to the tune of $160 million domestically over the Father's Day weekend. This was also the all-time best opening for the 30-year-old franchise. Disclosure Day took second place this weekend, though Toy Story practically beat its global take in the states alone, and Obsession and Backrooms continue their strong streaks coming in at third and fourth respectively.Universal and Blumhouse's Atomic Monster are jumping on the Curry Barker bandwagon having acquired the young director's third film in a reported eight figure deal. While Universal has been backing Barker, both Obsession and his upcoming film Anything But Ghosts are coming from Focus Features. Blumhouse has produced those same films, but this new move puts the horror powerhouse in a stronger position for film development. To tag onto the box office talk and remind you, Obsession was made for $750,000 and has now made more than $300 million worldwide - making it a tantalizing prospect for Blumhouse.Netflix has opted not to proceed with a second season of The Boroughs, a sci-fi TV series executive produced by Stranger Things creators The Duffer Brothers. The series debuted its first season last month. Universal and Imagine Entertainment are developing a sequel to 2000's How the Grinch Stole Christmas, with Jim Carrey in talks to reprise his role as the classic Dr. Seuss character the Grinch and Ron Howard returning to direct. Manny Jacinto, Emily Mortimer, and Thomasin McKenzie have joined the Season 3 cast of Prime Video's Fallout in recurring roles. In a new interview with Collider, Illumination CEO Chris Meledandri revealed that Star Wars creator George Lucas was cast in a small voice part in the upcoming Minions and Monsters because Lucas is a longtime fan of the Despicable Me franchise. Toy Story 4 director Josh Cooley is reteaming with Keanu Reeves for a live-action hybrid Lego movie that Cooley will direct and Reeves will star in according to Deadline. Netflix has won the rights to develop Alix E. Harrow's best selling novel The Everlasting and will enter production on a series adaptation immediately according to Variety. The Everlasting is a time loop fantasy novel and was one of the best selling books of last year.Universal Pictures has announced that the next Illumination animated film will be Not Alone, an alien movie starring Timothée Chalamet & Selena Gomez which will release in April of next year. Dylan Clark's reboot of The Blair Witch Project for Lionsgate has landed a release date of September 24, 2027.Legendary has announced that a live action Magic School Bus movie is officially in the works with Elizabeth Banks set to play Ms. Frizzle. Detective Pikachu and Goosebumps director Rob Letterman will helm the feature.

    This episode is a discussion inspired by Mystic on Youtube. He recently made a video about why Sony can't/won't delay the release of the PS6. You can watch that video, here. What's it boil down to? Sunk cost. They already spent all the time and money to bring it to market, stopping now won't actually save them anything and can only cost them more. Personally, I think that's a fallacy, but Matt sees the logic of the argument. Additionally, we talk the steam machine, Xbox next gen, and more!

    John is joined by Myles Smith and producer Peter Fenn to discuss how they wrote, recorded and produced the album ‘My Mess, My Heart, My Life'. Myles Smith is a singer-songwriter from Luton in the UK. Performing at local open mic nights since his teens, he built a loyal fan base and landed a record deal with Sony thanks to cover versions he posted on Tiktok. In 2024, Myles' single ‘Stargazing' was a viral hit and has since been streamed over one billion times globally. The momentum of ‘Stargazing' and other early singles helped establish Myles as one of the UK's most promising new artists. He won 2024's BBC Introducing Artist of the Year and the BRIT Rising Star Award and is only the second artist, after Lewis Capaldi, to sell out London's 02 Arena before releasing a debut album. ‘My Mess, My Heart, My Life', his debut, produced by longtime collaborator Peter Fenn, arrived in June 2026. Sitting down at Salvation Studios in London, the trio discuss “getting out of the way of the song” as their approach to production on the album and how billion-streaming hit ‘Stargazing' evolved into something really special in the studio. They explain why they prefer to be “in the box” when it comes to mixing, and reveal how they translated Myles' original acoustic tracks into anthemic live performances, including “Myles Sauce” vocal techniques!

    Puntata a cura di Untimoteo.La serie supereroica live action Spider-Noir presente sulla piattaforma Prime Video consta di 8 puntate della durata media di 50 minuti ed è prodotta da Amazon in cooperazione con Sony. Spider-Noir è un oggetto estraneo, a tratti irritante, a tratti geniale, costantemente spiazzante. Tecnicamente ineccepibile e straripante di citazioni cinefile, questo prodotto tenta di nobilitare il genere supereroistico contaminandolo con gli stilemi del cinema noir. E reggendosi interamente sul carisma istrionico e volutamente goffo di un Nicolas Cage in stato di grazia."10 minuti 1 serie" è il format del podcast di Mondoserie che racconta appunto una serie in dieci minuti (più o meno!).

And while Sony seems to have begun to mend the issue, it feels like they're unable to accept their solemn corporate obligation to protect their customers. Will they ever even publicly admit their problems, nonetheless solve all of them? We discuss. Plus: Other news! Grand Theft Auto VI's pre-orders are imminent, rumors are circulating about a potential delay of PlayStation 6, Housemarque talks about its post-Saros future, Halo: Campaign Evolved's Trophies have been surreally revealed, Mark Hamill is set to appear in Twisted Metal's third season on Peacock, and more. Then: Listener inquiries! Is PlayStation at risk of losing its hard-earned prestige? Why aren't more at-risk studios sold instead of shuttered? Should Capcom get more credit for their runaway success with RE Engine? Will Dustin ever return to the show, or will Sacred forever move forward as a duo?

    Um caso recente envolvendo a Meta acendeu um alerta para empresas que estão acelerando a adoção de agentes de inteligência artificial em áreas como atendimento, suporte técnico e recuperação de acessos. Segundo investigações, hackers conseguiram assumir contas verificadas do Instagram ao explorar um sistema automatizado de suporte da companhia. Entre os alvos estavam perfis ligados à Casa Branca, à Força Espacial dos Estados Unidos e grandes marcas. Mas o que realmente aconteceu? O problema estava na inteligência artificial ou na forma como ela foi integrada aos processos da empresa? Para responder essas e outras perguntas, o Podcast Canaltech conversa com Rodolfo Almeida, COO da ViperX, startup de cibersegurança do Grupo Dfense. No episódio, o especialista explica como o ataque funcionou, por que os riscos da IA estão deixando de ser apenas informacionais para se tornarem operacionais e quais cuidados empresas devem adotar antes de conceder autonomia a agentes inteligentes. Você também vai conferir: Sony quer acabar de vez com as fotos estouradas no celular, Adobe quer deixar a IA cuidando da parte chata do trabalho criativo e operadora está pagando dívidas para convencer clientes a mudar de lado.

    This week in physical media, Erik Childress and Peter Sobczynski look at John Waters getting the Criterion treatment. There are a pair of middle-of-the-road (at best) upgrades for Adam Sandler as well as a film with his Bulletproof co-star. James Garner and Bruce Willis in a Hollywood western murder mystery misfire but thankfully Clint Eastwood is also here to save the day. There is the Takashi Miike film that makes good use of the term “not for the squeamish.” And while the subject matter of one death after another did not bode well for a Robin Williams film about heaven and hell, the duo make the case that it was worth a revisit.1:33 - Criterion (Desperate Living (4K), Hairspray (1987) (4K))31:57 - Alliance (Sunset)41:09 - Kino (Hang ‘Em High (4K), Major Payne)1:00:15 - Sony (50 First Dates (4K), Click (4K))1:17:40 - Shout (What Dreams May Come (4K))1:37:51 - Arrow (Audition (4K))1:54:38 – New TV on Blu-ray (Masters of the Universe: Revelation/Revolution (Steelbook), I Know What You Did Last Summer: The Complete Series)1:56:23 - New Theatrical Titles on Blu-ray (Alpha (2025), Magellan, Mr. K, Pools, The Last Showgirl)2:01:10 - New Blu-ray AnnouncementsCLICK ON THE FILMS TO RENT OR PURCHASE AND HELP OUT THE MOVIE MADNESS PODCAST OR BUY FROM MOVIEZYNGBe sure to check outErik's Weekly Box Office Column – At Rotten TomatoesCritics' Classics Series – At Elk Grove Cinema in Elk Grove Village, ILChicago Screening Schedule - All the films coming to theaters and streamingPhysical Media Schedule - Click & Buy upcoming titles for your library.(Direct purchases help the Movie Madness podcast with a few pennies.)Erik's Linktree - Where you can follow Erik and his work anywhere and everywhere.The Movie Madness Podcast has been recognized by Million Podcasts as one of the Top 100 Best Movie Review Podcasts as well as in the Top 60 Film Festival Podcasts and Top 100 Cinephile Podcasts.

    Worum geht's? 2002 erscheint mit Sly Raccoon (in Nordamerika: Sly Cooper and the Thievius Raccoonus) ein 3D-Plattformer exklusiv für die PlayStation 2, der zusammen mit Jak & Daxter und Ratchet & Clank eine goldene Trias der PS2-Jump'n'Runs bildet. In dem Spiel schlüpft man in die Rolle des Waschbären Sly Cooper, der als Meisterdieb durch nächtliche Städte und finstere Dschungel schleicht, klettert und kämpft, um ein gestohlenes Familienbuch aus den Händen der Teuflischen Fünf zurückzuholen. Fabian und Gunnar beleuchten, warum die Mischung aus Schleichen, Klettern und kontextsensitiven Diebsaktionen auch heute noch funktioniert, außerdem erklären die beiden, was den unverwechselbaren Cell-Shading-Look des Spiels ausmacht und wie die selbst entwickelte Speckle Engine dazu beitrug. Daneben erzählen Fabian und Gunnar die Geschichte von Sucker Punch Productions: vom Deal mit Sony über die etwa dreijährige Entwicklungszeit bis hin zum Aufstieg von Game Director Nate Fox, der beim Vorgängerspiel noch als Junior-Designer tätig war und beim zweiten Spiel des Studios bereits die inhaltliche Verantwortung übernahm. Infos zum Spiel: Thema: Sly Raccoon (US: Sly Cooper and the Thievus Raccoonus) Erscheinungstermin: 23. November 2002 (Nordamerika), 29.

    And the bad news just keeps rolling on. To start with, after the wonderful help and generosity with the help of our hosting costs – our host decided to increase our costs. If you are able to help, and I get that we're living in times right now where helping, financially, is difficult, we appreciate even the least little bit. It's all laid out in the post just below this one on our website. So, again, thank you. As for the other bad news, Microsoft is currently in the reaping part of that whole phrase/verse/proverb. And it really sucks. We keep a running tally of job losses at the end of each of these posts and that number is about to go WAY up. Nothing has happened yet but it's likely to in the weeks to come. And it's happening with Bungie & Sony as well. I'm not sure what the good news could be or any kind of silver lining in all of this is, but I don't think it's going to stop or slow down any time soon. There's a whole ripple effect that's going on with a near perfect storm of economic issues, RAM issues because of AI (and the economy), and game/console development issues because of the RAM and the economy. As much as I harp on Ubisoft for never releasing another Splinter Cell – it won't save them. I get now why they are just, seemingly, going with a remake. It's been…it's been 4,689 days since a new Splinter Cell game (non-animated series or guest spot in another game franchise, remake, BBC radio drama, or VR exclusive) was released. Also, there's been 3,895 job losses in the gaming industry since January 1, 2026.

Once a showcloser for Sony's 2018 E3 showcase, Days Gone is already slipping from public consciousness. It's a crude, generic open-world zombie survival game about a sad white man...and yet there's something special about it (at least Murph thinks that).

    The Year AI Became Militarized: Shelly Palmer on Government, Defense, and $3 Trillion Stacked

    Shelly Palmer has spent 45 years watching technology reshape every industry—from writing news themes for CBS to consulting with every major media company on AI strategy.On this year-end recap, he cuts through the noise with one devastating observation: 2025 was the year everyone talked about AI while almost nobody actually used it. Executives shook their heads knowingly in meetings, pontificated about capabilities the models don't yet have, and parroted nonsense they read from other people who knew nothing. But when you asked one innocent question, they crumbled.In the News: CES 2026 shapes up with Nvidia sponsoring two full days of AI training. Samsung is skipping the main floor for a massive offsite activation. Sony brings no electronics—only Honda's experimental vehicles. The TCL and Chinese companies' presence hinges on tariff policy. The innovation series breakfast that Shelly runs is becoming an official CES event after a decade of independence.The conversation spirals into deeper territory: $3 trillion in government money is stacked behind AI development. The U.S. explicitly states it must beat China to AGI—making this the Manhattan Project of our lifetime. Shelly walks through what he's seen in successful companies (leadership using the tech, paid "Tech Tuesdays" for AI experiments, cross-discipline teams with SecOps and legal at the table) versus the chaos of places with no process.He breaks down what's real—drone warfare, cybersecurity applications, robotics—versus what's hot air. And he makes a case that won't be killed by AI itself, but by militarized applications and the geopolitical arms race we're already in.5 Key Takeaways from Shelly:Leadership belief and hands-on use are non-negotiable. Companies winning with AI have senior leaders who actually use the technology. When the CEO walks into an LT meeting saying "I built this agent over the weekend," everyone else starts experimenting too.The recipe for AI success has three ingredients: leadership belief, paid time to experiment (Tech Tuesdays/Thursdays with real budgets), and cross-discipline teams (SecOps, legal, compliance, risk) paving the way. Chaos erupts without this structure.You cannot build a point of view on AI from reading blogs or watching YouTubers. Pick a personal project you care about, go hands-on with a model (Claude, Gemini, GPT), and complete it from beginning to end. Only lived experience grounds your understanding.AI parallelizes with web 1.0: In 1998, you had to hand-code HTML, build databases manually, write raw JavaScript. Today you can vibe code a site in 90 seconds. AI will eventually reach "spin me up an expert that does X" without asking questions—we're not there yet, but it's inevitable.It's both bubble and Manhattan Project. Some valuations are insane and will burst. But military applications, cyber warfare, drone control, robotics—those aren't going anywhere. The government won't back off. Both outcomes happen simultaneously.This episode is brought to you by Zappar, creators of Mattercraft—the leading visual development environment for building immersive 3D web experiences for mobile headsets and desktop.Mattercraft combines game engine power with web flexibility and features an AI assistant to help you design, code, and debug in real time in your browser.

    Akash Nigam has been building Genies since 2017 with a conviction that avatars will be the visual layer of the internet. As CEO of Genies, he's assembled IP partners including the NBA, MLB, Sanrio, and Kakao, with more major studios and agencies set to announce before the end of May. The pitch: every app, game, website, and celebrity is going to have an AI personality. Genies wants to be the framework that gives all of those personalities a face.What separates Genies is portability and scale. A character that took eight weeks in 2021 now takes ten minutes. Staying stylized rather than photorealistic isn't just aesthetic — it's what got Hollywood to the table. Talent doesn't want deepfakes. They want a Genie: trained on private IP data, capable of one-on-one fan relationships that make Instagram feel thin.AI XR News: Tim Cook stepped aside as Apple CEO with hardware chief John Ternus taking over.

    Esta conversación con Carlos Rivera llegó cargada de verdad, de música y de corazón. Carlos es cantante, compositor y actor mexicano con más de 22 años de carrera. Ha llenado estadios en toda Latinoamérica y España, protagonizado el Rey León, y construido una carrera sólida disco a disco, desde las raíces hasta su nuevo álbum de mariachi, Vida México, con el que rinde homenaje a su tierra, a su cultura y a su papá, quien falleció hace cuatro años.   En esta conversación hablamos de todo lo que no se ve detrás del éxito. De los 7 años entre ganar La Academia y protagonizar el Rey León: años duros, de esperar, de moverse cuando nadie te abría puertas. De cuando Sony le dijo que el disco estaba equivocado, de cómo él se plantó frente a toda la compañía y defendió su música, y de cómo ese disco terminó siendo el que le cambió la historia. También hablamos de los algoritmos, de la batalla de los artistas con las plataformas, de la diferencia entre fama y éxito, y de por qué mientras más quieres agradar, menos lo logras.   Y llegamos a lo más profundo: el duelo, las canciones que escribió para honrar a su papá, y por qué su álbum Vida México habla de la muerte para celebrar la vida.   Si estás en un momento donde sientes que el camino es más largo de lo que esperabas, o que los demás avanzan más rápido que tú, quédate. Esta conversación es para ti. Porque esto lo hacemos En Defensa Propia.

We break down what these reports could mean for the future of Xbox Game Studios, Hellblade, South of Midnight, Psychonauts, and the broader Xbox ecosystem. We also dive into troubling reports surrounding Bungie, as the PlayStation-owned studio could reportedly lose up to 50% of its workforce following the conclusion of Destiny 2's story and Marathon's underwhelming launch performance. What does this mean for Bungie's future under Sony? Is Destiny 3 truly off the table? And can Marathon recover? Plus, we discuss Housemarque's future after Saros, why the studio sees itself following a path similar to FromSoftware, and what PlayStation fans can expect from one of Sony's fastest-growing first-party teams. Join us as we break down the biggest gaming industry stories of the week, the future of Xbox, Bungie, PlayStation Studios, and the state of the games business in 2026.

    Welcome to Multiverse News, your source for information about all your favorite fictional universes.While it may come as no surprise, the biggest Marvel news this week is still just as exciting as it is obvious with the revelation that Chris Evans will indeed appear in Secret Wars. While not officially confirmed by Marvel, the news broke via a social media post from March 26, that is just now gaining notice, with the actor himself telling Instagram user @comicconmomsi, "I can tell you that...I start work on the next one in a couple of months, I can tell you that," in a video message. That tracks with the projected August production starting date for Secret Wars we've discussed previously.While rumors and speculation are typically not our forte here, the rumor mill surrounding The Batman II cast warrants some attention. In May, we discussed headlines from sources like Variety and The Wrap that seemingly confirmed Sebastian Stan had been cast as Harvey Dent, as he had long been rumored to be, with Scarlett Johansson and Charles Dance announced as Dent's wife and father, respectively. In hindsight, those headlines resulted from Matt Reeve's social media post where he confirmed and welcomed a number of actors as part of the film but did not actually reveal any roles. In the last week, industry insider Jeff Sneider has suggested that his sources claim that Stan will instead play Victor Zsasz and Brian Tyree Henry is set to portray Harvey. Steven Spielberg has returned to the blockbuster arena for the first time in eight years with Disclosure Day, his UFO sci-fi thriller starring Emily Blunt and Josh O'Connor, which opened to approximately $44 million domestically and $93.9 million globally, making it his biggest opening weekend ever for an original film. Meanwhile, Obsession continues its extraordinary run, adding another $19 million in week five for a domestic total of $188.3 million. Spielberg's $115 million production earned strong reviews and a B CinemaScore.Sony has released the trailer for The Social Reckoning, Aaron Sorkin's sequel to The Social Network. Jeremy Strong stars as Mark Zuckerberg alongside Mikey Madison, Jeremy Allen White, and Bill Burr. The film opens October 9.Peter Sarsgaard has joined the Season 3 cast of HBO's The Last of Us in a recurring role. He will play an original character named Amon, one of the leaders of the Seraphites. Production is currently on a planned hiatus to accommodate World Cup matches filming in Vancouver.It: Welcome to Derry writer Jason Fuchs has been tapped to write a new untitled Transformers script for Paramount and Hasbro.Channing Tatum, Jonah Hill, and Ice Cube are in talks to return for 24 Jump Street at Sony Pictures, reuniting most of the original production team.Apple TV+ has renewed horror comedy Widow's Bay for a second season ahead of its season finale this week, and has signed creator Katie Dippold to a multiyear overall deal.Jason Momoa has made clear he has no interest in a PG-13 Lobo solo movie. In an interview with Collider, he said if he makes a standalone Lobo film, it will be rated R, full stop, though he's open to appearing in ensemble DCU projects in the meantime.Peter Serafinowicz has been cast as Peeves the Poltergeist in HBO's Harry Potter series.Anya Taylor-Joy has joined the cast of the upcoming Lord of the Rings prequel The Hunt for Gollum, playing an elf character named Seren.Marvel Comics will publish a one-shot crossover this September titled The Muppets Take the Marvel Universe, celebrating the 50th anniversary of The Muppet Show by teaming Muppets characters with iconic Marvel heroes.Mark Hamill is joining Peacock's Twisted Metal for Season 3 in a recurring role, playing the father of Sweet Tooth.Chris Sanders, co-creator and co-director of the original Lilo & Stitch animated film, will direct Disney's live-action sequel Lilo & Stitch 2.

    We're coming off of our Summer Game Fest-related high, toting a bunch of news from publisher-driven events that occurred after we published our last episode. For starters, the Xbox Showcase... showcased... 28 games in total, of which 24 are coming to PlayStation 5, including State of Decay 3, Senua, and Spyro: A Realm Beyond (not to mention release dates for Halo: Combat Evolved and Fable). But Xbox's peculiar, wishy-washy, and inconsistent behavior likewise makes us wonder what the future might hold for Microsoft releases on Sony's hardware, especially because Gears of War: E-Day and Clockwork Revolution -- both internally slated to migrate to PlayStation 5 until very recently -- won't appear at all. Meanwhile, Nintendo's newest Direct also had some interesting fodder, including a surprise look at Kingdom Hearts IV, a brand new 2D-HD game in the form of Final Fantasy Resonance, and more. Other news this week revolves around Persona 4 Revival and Persona 6, a new Crazy Taxi adventure in the form of World Tour, a promising magic shooter called Magicians: The Devil's Deal, a fall release date for Castlevania: Belmont's Curse, and extremely strong sales figures for Yacht Club's Mina the Hollower. We wrap things up (as always) with listener inquiries! Now that everything has settled, what are our three most-anticipated games, respectively? Should Sony bite the bullet and greenlight Destiny 3?

    Jamie Kozub and Chris Carter are the yin and yang behind Shit My Dad Taught Me, a podcast that's exploded to over 2.5 million views every month in barely 18 months. Together they also co-founded Burlington Dads, a community of 7,200 fathers that has raised over $1 million for local families and charities. But what makes these two men worth an hour of your time isn't the numbers. It's the two completely different roads that brought them here. Jamie has never met his biological father and grew up 40 minutes outside Thunder Bay in a house with no working toilet and a potbelly stove for heat. With his dad working construction hundreds of miles away Monday through Saturday, Jamie was cooking dinner and raising his little brother at 12. He moved out at 15, worked the Sony store from two till ten every day through high school, and was making $130K a year by 18. Then at 19, after blowing $60,000 at the casino, he walked back in, handed over his driver's license, and banned himself from every casino in Ontario. Chris had the opposite upbringing: a ten-out-of-ten dad who fed every kid who walked through the door and modeled what it means to raise daughters. Now a girl dad of two, Chris shares his number one piece of advice, just take them with you, and the story of the letter that confronted him at 340 pounds. A year later, he's lost nearly 100 pounds and is preparing for his first bodybuilding show at 42. We also go to some deep waters in this one: their friend Matt's story of losing his father and grandfather to suicide, and my own 33 days of insomnia in 2017 and the counselor's words that changed my perception forever. This is a conversation about fatherhood, brotherhood, and building the communities that keep men alive and thriving. Don't miss it.   Timeline Summary [1:02] Larry welcomes Jamie Kozub and Chris Carter, the yin and yang behind Shit My Dad Taught Me [1:56] Jamie on never meeting his biological father and why he feels no void to fill [2:58] Growing up outside Thunder Bay with no working toilet, a potbelly stove, and a dad gone Monday to Saturday [10:33] Chris's number one girl dad advice: just take them with you, from boardrooms to private jets [17:56] Moving out at 15, couch surfing, and working the Sony store from two till ten every day [19:39] Making $130K at 18 and turning down a University of Miami scholarship [20:28] Walking into the casino at 19 to ban himself from every casino in Ontario for five years [26:35] Chris's dad and the barbecue pizza rule: everyone who walks through the door gets fed [33:02] How Shit My Dad Taught Me reached 2.5 million monthly views through radical authenticity [37:16] The Lexie J letter story that confronted Chris at 340 pounds and sparked his transformation [42:18] Their friend Matt's story of loss and his commitment to breaking a generational cycle [45:18] Larry opens up about 33 days of insomnia and the counselor's words that changed everything [48:14] Pits and peaks: Chris's daily traditions for getting his girls to open up [51:46] A warrior on a farm: why the biggest guy in the room works hardest at being gentle [54:30] Jamie on raising boys who respect women, learn from losing, and greet every guest at the door [56:47] Inside Burlington Dads: 14 events, a $75K golf tournament, and a $77K Christmas toy drive   Five Key Takeaways You don't need a void filled to move forward; Jamie chose to honor the dad who raised him while letting go of the one who didn't, and turned a hard childhood into fuel instead of an excuse. The simplest girl dad advice is also the best: take your kids with you everywhere so they never believe a glass ceiling exists. Make your home the place where every kid is fed, welcomed, and safe, because you'd rather your kids make their choices under your roof than somewhere else. Find the thing that confronts you before your family has to write you the letter; Chris lost nearly 100 pounds because he refused to put his daughters in that position. Whatever pain you're carrying, you don't have to carry it alone; real communities of men exist, and guys like Jamie and Chris will always pick up the phone.   Links & Resources Shit My Dad Taught Me — available on all platforms, including Spotify and YouTube Follow Chris on Instagram — @chriscarterbd Follow Jamie on Instagram — @jamiekozub Burlington Dads on Facebook Episode resources — https://thedadedge.com/1491 Join the Dad Edge Alliance — https://thedadedge.com/join Questions for the Car free download — https://thedadedge.com/kidquestions Closing There's a moment in this episode where a 19-year-old kid making six figures walks into a casino, hands over his driver's license, and bans himself for five years because he knew the life he wanted required a different man. That's what taking responsibility actually looks like, and it's the thread running through this entire conversation, from Chris's 100-pound transformation to two men building a community of 7,200 dads who refuse to do life alone. If this one hit home, send it to the brother in your life who needs to hear that good men come together. Go out and live legendary.
