The 1% in Recovery Successful Gamblers & Alcoholics Stopping Addiction
Text and Be HeardSports betting didn't just become legal, it became ambient. It shows up in pregame talk, on-screen odds, push alerts, and “risk-free” promos that are anything but. We sit down with Thomas, a New Jersey lawyer in recovery, to unpack what it felt like to move from early poker nights and calling in bets with bookies to watching gambling explode into a 24/7, app-driven marketplace.We get specific about the real difference between illegal and legal gambling: friction. When you have to call a bet in, there's a pause. When you can place a wager from the couch at any hour, the loop gets tighter, faster, and harder to interrupt. Thomas shares why he chose lifetime self-exclusion, why he believes legalization pulls in people who never had a problem before, and how sports and gambling now feel fused into one product through relentless advertising.We also dig into underage exposure and why “we don't market to kids” rings hollow when the betting language is everywhere. Parents matter here more than most people want to admit. Even “social” gambling can train a child's brain to normalize parlays, spreads, and constant action, while offshore sites and loose age checks make access easier than people think. Finally, Thomas explains what recovery feels like now: less chaos, fewer spikes, and learning that boring can be healthy. If you've ever felt trapped by the need to win it back, you're not alone.

Drea de Matteo says she wasn't cancelled. Then she reveals what her agent did… Check out Drea's brilliant show: https://www.youtube.com/@TheULTRAFREEPodcast The Sopranos star Drea de Matteo joins Andrew Gold on Heretics for an unfiltered interview about Hollywood, cancel culture, vaccine mandates and the cost of refusing to play along. Best known as Adriana La Cerva in The Sopranos and for her role in Sons of Anarchy, Drea describes being dropped by her agent without a phone call, facing foreclosure and turning to OnlyFans. But the question she says she was asked while caring for the woman who raised her takes this conversation somewhere much darker. We discuss Donald Trump, RFK Jr, Robert De Niro and why Drea questions Hollywood's celebrity political endorsements. She also reveals her surprising first Sopranos paycheque and what happened when a harness snapped during a violent scene. Plus, Drea shares her views on geoengineering, religion and institutional power — before we confront what people actually mean when they call Hollywood “demonic”. How much should someone have to sacrifice to keep working in Hollywood?

Jimmy “Easy” Saracco sits with us on The Burn Down Podcast to discuss the insides of the DeCavalcante crime family, the New Jersey Mafia family widely cited as an inspiration for The Sopranos—the money, the violence, the rules, and the people behind it. He opens up about his life in the New York and New Jersey underworld, the crimes he was involved in, the moment everything started falling apart, and the decision to cooperate with the government. From the streets to witness protection, Jimmy tells his story in his own words and what it really cost him to leave that life behind.

Kaya is joined by Leah from Positively Uncensored for another RHONY crossover! This week, Jessel sparks one of the funniest Housewives debates imaginable after walking into Daisy's apartment and immediately clocking the popcorn ceilings. But does criticizing a Housewife's apartment make Jessel classist — or is being rich, materialistic and completely out of touch exactly what we signed up to watch? Then Haley continues to reveal more of her extremely complicated past, from being dragged into the Jon & Kate Plus 8 tabloid circus at 22 to opening up about her unconventional marriage. Meanwhile, Haley and Jessel bond over their mutual dislike of Erin, Carole continues dealing with everyone's fascination with Carolyn Bessette, Erika opens up about fertility and surrogacy, and the dermatologist drama gets even messier. Finally, Haley calls Erin boring — and Erin absolutely cannot handle it. Before all of that, Kaya and Leah go through the “100 Best TV Shows of the 21st Century” list and question some truly baffling choices.

Can We Talk About ME for Once?In this episode, I open up about the strange emotional reality of being an accomplished opera singer who still feels unseen. I reflect on my career path, the pressure of always talking about other people's success, and why this episode is about reclaiming my own story. A BTS documentary unexpectedly sparked a deeper reflection on fame, visibility, and longevity in the arts. I also talk about stage fright, vocal identity, and the realities of performing professionally without a huge machine behind me.Key topicsWhy I wanted this episode to focus on my own career and not just advice for othersHow watching a BTS documentary led me to think about longevity, visibility, and artistic purposeWhat it feels like to be an opera singer who still sometimes feels invisibleThe challenge of staying focused when I do not feel validated or recognizedHow I discovered my gift at age 12 through a music teacher and my parents' supportMy journey from mezzo and possible contralto labels to soprano repertoireMajor milestones including international opera work, Broadway tours, recital tours, dignitary performances, Carnegie Hall, Washington National Opera, and recording projectsWhy I sometimes want space to talk about my own opera career for onceHow social media comparison can drain my confidenceThe realities of backstage life, stage safety, and the physical demands of professional performanceWhat nerves feel like before I go onstageThe changing role of music and teleprompters in recital performanceMy first vocal solo and the stage-fright lesson my father helped me understandWhy being seen can begin with deciding that my own story deserves to be toldTimestamps00:00 — Welcome back and setting up a season of reflection01:00 — How a BTS documentary triggered a deeper personal investigation03:27 — Why artistic careers are hard to sustain without feeling validated04:55 — Naming the feeling of being invisible in opera06:59 — Working hard while still wondering why nobody sees me07:28 — Discovering music at 12 with help from a teacher and my parents08:24 — Major career milestones that should have felt more visible09:24 — Wanting to talk about my own opera career for once10:02 — Social media comparison and the cost of measuring myself against others10:31 — How my online presence mixes opera, business, acting, and karaoke11:01 — My first solo opportunities and the early Carmen experience11:58 — My voice shifting from mezzo to soprano13:20 — Auditions, Europe, and learning how opera works overseas14:38 — Why repertoire choices matter for stamina and professionalism15:08 — My first international tour of Porgy and Bess16:31 — Loving the performing arts beyond opera17:25 — Backstage life, audience behavior, and stage safety18:53 — What nerves feel like before I step onstage20:14 — Memorization, music onstage, and changing recital norms22:09 — My first solo, stage fright, and the mistake that taught me a lasting lesson24:24 — Being seen as a decision, not just a reaction25:23 — Why the podcast shifted from TV to audio and back again26:22 — Closing thoughts and where to follow me online Host Bri Cooper Shop Harbour for the Arts™ NEW SPONSOR ALERT!

Grab your badges and keep your mouth shut, because this week we head into Garrison, New Jersey, to revisit "Cop Land," a film about loyalty, corruption, masculinity, and what happens when the guy everyone underestimates finally decides he's had enough. But when your entire town is populated by New York cops, their families, and enough dirty secrets to fill an evidence locker, “keeping the peace” can get a little complicated, even for Sylvester Stallone. So, is Cop Land a modern day Western, an overlooked crime classic, a trial run for 'The Soprano's,' or Hollywood's most expensive reunion of "Goodfellas"?Make a film recommendation for an upcoming episode!Thank you for listening!

Russia's spy services are a bungling clown show that can still kill you anywhere. Here, ex-CIA officer Sean Wiswesser takes us inside Putin's secret war.Full show notes and resources can be found here: jordanharbinger.com/1386What We Discuss with Sean Wiswesser:Russian intelligence is a paradox. It's comprised largely of bungling fools who siphon gas from their own surveillance cars and binge-watch The Sopranos, yet they remain formidable adversaries. What makes them dangerous isn't competence but real capability paired with no moral limits and no accountability.Corruption isn't a bug — it's the system. Officers invent sources and pad reports with rewritten news to flatter the boss. That yes-man culture is how Putin was assured Ukraine would be a one-week war, now in its fifth year. A criminalized service takes reckless risks.The most insidious threat isn't assassinations — it's information warfare. What Russia did in 2016 is now amplified thousands-fold by AI, and it targets American youth to erode their faith in democracy itself. The one thing democracy asks of us is an informed public.The West is fighting a hybrid war it won't name, with severed undersea cables, a targeted German CEO, teenagers hired on Telegram for sabotage, and drones over Poland. Deterrence without consequences invites more, and Sean warns the Baltics are likely next after any Ukraine ceasefire.Democracy runs on an informed public, so you are the defense. Slow down, resist reacting to clickbait on emotion, and check sources before you share. And if anyone ever tries to compromise or coerce you, report it — silence is the only leverage they hold.And much more...And if you're still game to support us, please leave a review here — even one sentence helps!

Welcome to The B-Side! Here we talk about movie stars! Not the movies that made them famous or kept them famous, but the ones that they made in between. Today we discuss New Jersey legend James Gandolfini! Our B-Sides include: The Mexican, Romance & Cigarettes, Cinema Verite, and The Drop. Our guest literally wrote the book on Gandolfini! Jason Bailey, author of Gandolfini Jim, Tony, and the Life of a Legend. He also co-hosts the podcast “Guide for the Film Fanatic” on the One Heat Minute Productions network. I was honored to chat about The Adventures of Robin Hood on the pod not too long ago! We discuss Gandolfini's early years as a character actor, his fun times on the set of the holiday debacle Surviving Christmas, and the chemistry of friendship that Gandolfini and Julia Roberts build in the underrated The Mexican. Jason dishes on the process of writing his great book, we all lament the next act of great Gandolfini performances we did not get, and I remember some iconic episodes from The Sopranos. We discuss his playful energy and singular legacy, and what could have been. There's also a chat about Jason's upcoming book YIPPEE KI-YAY "Die Hard,” Bruce Willis, and the Reinvention of the Action Movie.

Soprano Hilary Cronin joins Netty for a tea and chat in the basement of the University Women's Club. They talk about catching the 'music bug' growing up in a musical family, Hilary's fondness for the clarinet, and the joys of bringing different characters to life from costumes and wigs to finding the right outfit.Hilary Cronin revisits her early memories of performing in pantomimes, alongside ballet, tap and jazz lessons that fuelled her love of performing. She talks about singing in choirs and as a soloist in different settings, her work with the OAE on baroque repertoire, and her hopes of exploring new repertoire and trying something different. --Tea with Netty is the Orchestra of the Age of Enlightenment's podcast hosted by viola player Annette Isserlis (Netty). Over a cuppa (or something a little stronger…), Netty chats with a variety of conductors, players and other guests as she ‘spills the tea' on the side of classical music you don't normally hear.Available as Apple podcast, Google Podcast, Spotify, Stitcher, iHeart Radio, TuneIn+Alexa

Don't Kill the Messenger with movie research expert Kevin Goetz
Send Kevin a Text MessageBob Greenblatt joins host Kevin Goetz for a conversation that follows the television executive through four separate turnarounds, from a struggling young Fox Network to the top of Showtime, NBC, and WarnerMedia Entertainment. Greenblatt helped develop Beverly Hills, 90210, The X-Files, and Party of Five at Fox, produced Six Feet Under, turned Showtime into a creative rival to HBO with Weeds and Dexter, ran NBC during the network's return to number one with The Voice and This Is Us, and later helped launch HBO Max. He's also a five-time Tony-winning Broadway producer.Learning the Business from Peter Chernin and Scott Rudin (07:05): After an MBA and film school, Greenblatt credits his mentors Scott Rudin and Peter Chernin for the real education in how to give notes and run a company without losing the creative instinct.Launching Fox with Beverly Hills, 90210 (16:15): Greenblatt walks through developing 90210 from Barry Diller's original idea, hiring an unproven Darren Star to write it, and watching the 90-minute pilot test through the roof. Its breakout success helped define the young-adult demo strategy that built the network.American Beauty, and the Birth of Six Feet Under (26:14): Greenblatt recounts partnering with David Janollari to launch their production company, signing sitcom writer Alan Ball without realizing he'd also written a script called American Beauty, and sending that script to HBO right as the film became an Oscar-winning phenomenon. HBO ordered Six Feet Under straight off the page.Turning Around Showtime and NBC (36:12): Greenblatt explains his pattern of leaving a job once it stops changing, his preference for buying over developing, and how he rebuilt Showtime around original series like Dexter and Weeds. He also details how The Voice gave NBC the lead-ins it needed to climb back to number one.Executive Mentors and the One That Got Away (42:25): Asked to name the greatest network executive in television history, Greenblatt points to Brandon Tartikoff and Grant Tinker's "first be best, then be first" philosophy. He also revisits Profit, his short-lived anti-hero drama that paved the way for Dexter, and his famous pass on Buffy the Vampire Slayer.The Green Room and The Rockford Files (51:28): Greenblatt previews current projects at his production company The Green Room. He closes by discussing his Broadway work on Ragtime, and his memoir, The Rockford Files.Host: Kevin GoetzGuest: Bob GreenblattProducer: Kari CampanoWriters: Kevin Goetz, Darlene Hayman, Nick Nunez, and Kari CampanoAudio Engineer: Gary Forbes (DG Entertainment)For more information about Bob Greenblatt:Wikipedia: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Robert_GreenblattIMDB: https://www.imdb.com/name/nm0338612/Playbill: https://playbill.com/person/robert-greenblatt-vault-0000116172For more information about Kevin Goetz:- Website: www.KevinGoetz360.com- Audienceology Book: https://www.simonandschuster.com/books/Audience-ology/Kevin-Goetz/9781982186678- How to Score in Hollywood: https://www.amazon.com/How-Score-Hollywood-Secrets-Business/dp/198218986X/- Facebook, X, Instagram, TikTok, YouTube, Substack: @KevinGoetz360- LinkedIn @Kevin Goetz- Screen Engine/ASI Website: www.ScreenEngineASI.com

We're closing out our Classic Car Movies #2 lap (aka Kickin' It Old School) and welcoming in Lap 17 in our mechanic-prescribed Lap 16 Tune-Up. After reflecting on the movies we covered this past lap (where in Joey asks Joe to give quick takes on all the movies we watched), we talk about Intermission, a French short film from 2020 that has fun ties to the Fast franchise. (Thanks again, Austin, for supplying us with a copy!) We talk about how hard it is to get momentum for endeavors later in life, how we wish Intermission got F&F details right, and the sin of referencing better art in your art. Joey asks Joe: did Carmela ever have a second installment of her film club in The Sopranos? We then announce the Lap 17 theme: (spoilers) war.

How certain can anyone really be that an autograph is authentic? Steve Grad joins Jeremy and David Chase for a fascinating deep dive into autograph authentication, beginning with one of the most controversial signed cards currently in the hobby: the 1952 Bowman Mickey Mantle that PSA has authenticated and Steve believes was NOT signed by Mickey Mantle. Steve explains why he believes the signature is secretarial or clubhouse signed, walks through the exemplars and signing tendencies he uses to reach that conclusion, and discusses what it's like to publicly disagree with another major authenticator when hundreds of thousands of dollars may be at stake. But how certain is an autograph authenticator? Steve explains when instinct enters the equation, when an authenticator should simply "punt" on an autograph, and even recalls reversing one of his own authentication decisions after going back and doing more research. The conversation then turns to another potentially enormous issue: signed 1952 Topps Jackie Robinson cards. Of the nine known examples discussed on the show, Steve says he has seen five that he believes are not authentic. They also discuss increasingly sophisticated forgery techniques, autopens, aging ink, whether autograph grades should have expiration dates and why an autograph sitting inside a slab can still change dramatically over time. Then things get considerably more entertaining. Years ago, David bought a collection of celebrity autographs on eBay, each accompanied by a letter of authenticity. He sends them to Steve for his verdict live on the show. Michael Jackson. Aerosmith. The Sopranos. The Goonies. Michael J. Fox and more. The verdict isn't pretty. Meanwhile, Jeremy puts his own three vintage hockey autographs in front of Steve, including Wayne Gretzky, Mario Lemieux and Steve Yzerman, with dramatically different results. Finally, Steve explains why education remains a collector's greatest protection. Learn the signature. Learn the signing habits. Learn the known secretarial and clubhouse versions. And never assume that simply because an autograph is already inside a slab, the question has been settled. Subscribe to Sports Cards Live on YouTube and wherever you listen to podcasts.

Meg Wolitzer presents two favorite Selected Shorts works in which food and nourishment figure both literally and symbolically. The narrator of Haruki Murakami's “The Year of Spaghetti” seems to be just sharing pasta recipes, but it's the recipe for assuaging loneliness that may elude him. The reader is Sopranos alum Michael Imperioli. And unusual family dynamics shape Amy Bloom's “Love is Not a Pie,” performed by Hope Davis. We also share a discussion of this work by the mother and daughter book club organized by our frequent reader Rita Wolf and her daughter Anjeli. Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.

Episode SummaryWhat if SEO belonged in the earliest business conversations; not just in a checklist after the strategy is already set? In Part 2 of Crystal Waddell's conversation with Will Soprano, Will reframes SEO as a company-wide philosophy that connects search behavior, customer insight, product-market fit, brand messaging, and revenue.Will and Crystal also unpack why small businesses get into trouble when they copy companies like Amazon, Apple, or Nike. Instead of duplicating big-brand tactics, they explain how to identify the intended impact, use the advantages of being small, and exploit market inefficiencies. Crystal brings the lesson to life with the story of growing her handmade senior-night numbers from a $30 product into a premium $300 offer by refusing to compete on price and continually disrupting her own business.What You'll LearnWhy SEO should inform executive, product, brand, content, email, and social decisions.How semantic alignment reveals when different channels are telling different stories.Why deterministic fact-checking and human review still matter in AI-assisted workflows.How Google Search Console can expose gaps between why people arrive and what a business intends to offer.Why product questions and answers may serve a small ecommerce business better than replacing them with a chatbot.How small businesses can use speed, focus, and self-disruption as competitive advantages.Why knowing your ideal customer and your own strengths is essential to finding an inefficient market.Timestamps0:00 SEO as a company philosophy3:19 A fast check for semantic alignment across channels4:05 Will's tool-agnostic SEO stack and internal tools4:37 Building a deterministic fact-checker5:25 Automating audits, reporting, and SERP documentation7:01 ICP and persona artifacts that help content teams7:41 Spotting product-market fit problems in Google Search Console8:11 Crystal's practical LLM workflow for a small business9:44 Why copying Apple, Nike, or Amazon fails10:34 Product Q&A versus chatbots for ecommerce12:22 Start with the impact—not the tactic12:55 Netflix, self-disruption, and the small-business advantage15:15 Using resources differently at large and small companies17:09 Crystal's $30-to-$300 product evolution19:21 How to find and exploit an inefficient market21:38 Where to connect with Will22:31 Final thoughtsEpisode Highlights“SEO is a philosophy of finding our customers and helping them find us.” — Will Soprano“The only company that gets to act like Apple is Apple. The only company that gets to act like Nike is Nike.” — Will SopranoListener Action StepsCheck whether your website, email, and social channels describe the same customer, problem, and promise.Choose one tactic you admire from a large brand. Write down the impact it creates, then design a smaller, more appropriate way to create that impact in your business.Review the real queries bringing people to your site in Google Search Console. Compare them with what you intended each page or product to be known for.Add or strengthen customer questions and answers on one important product or service page.Identify one market inefficiency: a need competitors overlook, serve poorly, or address only by competing on price.Resources & MentionsConnect with Will Soprano on LinkedIn: linkedin.com/in/willsopranoBook a mentoring conversation with Will: growthmentor.com/mentors/will-sopranoRead Will's writing: williamsoprano.com/blogLearn more from Crystal Waddell: simpleandsmartseo.comAbout the GuestWill Soprano works at the intersection of SEO, digital products, brand strategy, content, and technology.

Jimmy “Easy” Saracco lived the kind of Mafia life most people only know from movies. In this episode, the former DeCavalcante associate opens up about coming up in New York's underworld, making serious money through bookmaking and loansharking, carrying out violent orders, and operating around the New Jersey crime family often associated with the real-life inspiration behind The Sopranos. Jimmy also tells the story of his explosive feud with John Gotti Jr., including his claim that Gotti Jr. was involved in a plot to have him killed. After surviving a brutal attack that left him stabbed and in a coma, Jimmy says he wanted revenge—but Mafia politics made Gotti Jr. untouchable. Years later, the world Jimmy had lived by began collapsing from the inside. Bosses, captains, and associates started cooperating with the federal government, leaving Jimmy facing the possibility of spending the rest of his life in prison. Eventually, he made the decision he once thought was unthinkable: he cooperated too. Jimmy explains why he flipped, what it felt like walking out of his first proffer session, the murders and rackets he admitted involvement in, his time in witness protection, and why he says his life today is better than the one he left behind. This is the story of money, murder, loyalty, betrayal, the real-life Mafia world behind The Sopranos—and what happens when the code everyone swore to live by finally falls apart. Go Support Jimmy!

When Trelane's final project involves casting the crew into a soap opera, Captain Pike not inhabiting his role puts the great human experiment at risk. But after the dramas play out and the proctor declares humans interesting, the crew is released to pick back up with their own internal struggles. Which host is standing in the way of the next tour? What needs to be turned into Canadian Heritage Minutes? Who can't escape the Borg cube of quad box apologies?
