In this episode of F-Stop Collaborate and Listen, Matt Payne sits down with mountain photographer Scott Kranz to explore Scott's dramatic shift from a legal career to full-time outdoor photography in the Cascades. They dive into Scott's deep connection with Washington's mountains, especially the North Cascades, and the physical and mental challenges of documenting them. Scott shares insights from his massive projects—the 50 Peaks and Washington 100—to celebrate these landscapes and the effort required to capture their rugged beauty. The conversation also covers the importance of local passion projects, building relationships with brands, navigating risk and logistics in alpine photography, and Scott's process for curating his upcoming book, Cascade High, which blends storytelling, adventure, and meaningful imagery. If you're looking for inspiration around creative risk, project-building in photography, and the transformative power of the mountains, this episode won't disappoint.

We’re going to talk about games that are just plain fun, no matter the group. 0:00:00 Fact for 413 La Roue – a silent movie, with a full run time of 413 minutes. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/La_Roue Sponsor Message For expert help applying some of the same principles that help you take down your friends in Agricola, head over to firstmovefinancial.com/familygamers today to schedule a call. 0:04:45 What We’ve Been Playing Update – from the really cool Asmodee demo room at PAX Unplugged this year:First Giants – looks heavier than it is. Great for families! (coming in May)Carnuta – coming Februarydnup – like Scout or Jungo, with card-flipping as you pick up cards you beat. coming May/JuneSplendor Kids – uses a board instead of cards to buy. Already out! Spring – similar to WinterTag Team – deck-programming duel with the SmashUp approach to the source deckShadow NinjasLeaders – there are a few errata to deal with. But this is a fun duel full of asymmetric powers.Enthrone – more on this one soon.FloristryUnmatched – we used Moon Knight & ShakespeareDice Throne: X-Men – we used Cyclops & RogueLands of Amazement 0:38:30 The Family Gamers Community Welcome to our newest community members! You can join the community on Facebook. #Backtalk We asked about your favorite kind(s) of video games. You responded on the Facebook group and on the #backtalk channel of the Discord. 0:45:45 Just Plain Fun In no particular order, we picked five different kinds of games that always bring the fun. Trio (from Happy Camper) You never thought a memory-and-deduction game could be so much fun! This hits the table super quickly, as long as you have at least three players. The set-collection element is part of what keeps everyone engaged, along with the revealing of information to deduce where certain sets of cards are. It’s our family’s favorite game. Check out our review of Trio. Cabanga! (from Amigo / Hasbro) Now available as Snailed It! from Hasbro, this game always gets our table yelling as we cause players to take penalty cards. Play a card into a color area, and try to minimize the gap between that number and the other number in that color… or other players could throw out cards that fit in that gap and cause you to take penalties! Read our review of Cabanga! Super Mega Lucky Box (from Gamewright) This is the “most complicated” game on the list… but it’s basically bingo plus bonus combos that add some strategy. Fits well in either high-energy or low-energy situations. But always fun, and works at any player count, including solo. Check out our review of Super Mega Lucky Box. Green Team Wins (25th Century Games) Even people who don’t normally play games will (usually) enjoy this game. Ask a question; everyone tries to pick an answer to match with the most people around the table. Green Team Wins is unusual among party games. It works great among friends & family, but just as well with strangers as an icebreaker – or even combined groups where some people know each other well and others do not. It is our favorite party game. Watch our review of Green Team Wins – and the Green Team Wins: Holiday Party expansion. Spaceteam (from Stellar Factory) A high-energy “yell-y” game. We don’t play often, but it’s great if you’re ready for stress, a timer, and yelling. Cooperate to “fix your spaceship” by passing tool cards around the table to each player that needs them for specific tasks. As you fulfill tasks, discard them and find the spaceship parts. There are more cards in the mix that break expectations. And it feels so great when you can win! Find out more at PlaySpaceteam.com. Bonus: Red Letter, Yellow Letter (also from 25th Century Games) Another great party game, but a little lower energy than Green Team Wins. And since this is a game of “be the first to shout out an answer”, you can join mid-game. We find that it starts slowly, but then slowly warms up as people get used to the slowly-changing letters and “things”. And it always leaves us appreciating other players’ cool answers. Read our review of Red Letter, Yellow Letter. 0:58:30 New Backtalk Question We had a lot of games we played in the holiday week: what was YOUR board game of the week? This could be a gift you received for Chanukah or Christmas or whatever you celebrate, or it could have been something you got off the shelf of opportunity because you had some downtime. When I ask what your board game of the week is, what is it and why? Our son’s highlights are Hercules and The 12 Labors, and Slay the Spire (the boardgame).

Augen auf, beim Neujahrskauf! Gerade um die Zeit der Jahreswende kommen viele hübsche neue Jahre angelaufen und wollen sich euch aufdrängen! Ist 2026 überhaupt so schick und glitzernd neu, wie es tut? Wir haben das für euch unter die Lupe genommen: Zustand der Zähne? Schnarcht es? Will es nur euer Geld?

In dieser Episode des BSN-Teams-Podcasts sprechen wir über die persönlichen Highlights und die Erlebnisse des Jahres 2025. Ich, Sven, sitze zusammen mit Tobi, Philipp und Johanna, um unsere eigenen Erfahrungen zu reflektieren und uns über unsere Leidenschaft für Spiele auszutauschen.Philipp erzählt von seinem Highlight, der Gründung eines lokalen Spielevereins, Würfeljagd e.V., wo Brett- und Rollenspiele im Mittelpunkt stehen. Für ihn war es eine wertvolle Erfahrung, die Organisation eines Vereins kennenzulernen, ohne selbst in eine der Ämterrollen schlüpfen zu müssen. Die Gespräche über die Vorzüge des Vereinslebens und wie es den Austausch und die Spielgemeinschaft stärkt, zeigen, wie wichtig solche sozialen Strukturen für uns Spielbegeisterte sind. Auch die Spielewochenenden mit der BSN-Redaktion waren für uns alle ein großes Highlight.Philipp hat besonders gute Erfahrungen mit dem Spiel „Deception: Murder in Hong Kong“ gemacht, das sich als ideales Spiel für größere Gruppen erwiesen hat. Johanna hat in diesem Jahr zahlreiche Spieleabende organisiert, die sich um bestimmte Spiele gruppiert haben, was einen deutlich besseren Spielfluss und eine tiefere Einarbeitung in die Spiele ermöglicht hat. Besonders hervorhebt sie ihre Abende zu „Terraforming Mars“, die sehr erfolgreich waren. Sie bringt auch die Bedeutung hervor, thematisches Essen zu den Spieleabenden zu servieren, um das Spielerlebnis zu verbessern. Ihre Überlegungen zu musikalischer Untermalung während der Spiele zeigen weiterhin, wie Genuss und Atmosphäre beim Spielen wichtig sind.Tobi enthüllt sein Highlight, den Stand der BSN-Redaktion auf der Messe in Essen, wo er Neues entdeckt und Spielerfahrungen austauschen konnte. Er berichtet auch von seinen Crowdfunding-Kampagnen, die er in diesem Jahr gespielt hat, und thematisiert die Herausforderungen, die sich beim Unterstützen von Projekten ergeben können. Besonders das Spiel „Alice is Missing“ hat ihm gefallen, wobei er die Verzögerungen bei der Crowdfunding-Kampagne als frustrierend empfand. Er hebt auch „Fromage“ hervor, ein Worker-Placement-Spiel, das schnell und unterhaltsam ist, und seine erste Partie mit „The Old King's Crown“, ein Spiel voller strategischer Tiefe und einzigartiger Illustrationen.Nicht zuletzt teilen wir die Vorfreude auf Spiele, die 2026 herauskommen könnten. Philipp ist gespannt auf „Old King's Crown“ und die Erweiterung von „Slay the Spire“. Johanna hat ein Auge auf die „Downfall“-Erweiterung von "Slay the Spire" geworfen, während ich mich auf die Erweiterung von „Feed the Kraken“ freue, inklusive der zahlreichen neuen Module, die das Spiel spannender und dynamischer machen sollen. Insgesamt spiegelt diese Episode die Vielfalt unserer Spielerlebnisse, die Neugier auf neue Titel und die große Freude am gemeinsamen Spielen wider, die uns alle verbindet. Wir blicken erwartungsvoll auf das nächste Jahr und die neuen Möglichkeiten, die es mit sich bringen wird.

Hier ist euer Off-Topic-Geschenk zum Nikolaus: Folge 105 hat mehrere Werkstattdurchgänge hinter sich und ist bereit zur Endabnahme. Die Wortbeiträge aus Deutschland stammen wie schon berichtet aus einem Gamepad-Mikro unter dem Tisch, das verständlicherweise nicht so vollmundig wie ein Shure SM7B klingt. Obendrein ist dieser Podcast auch noch schokoladenfrei. Das alles kann Jürgen nicht schrecken: Er ist mit Traumpfaden und Hosenkauf beschäftigt. Daheim studiert er Jeffrey Deavers „Carte Blanche“ und einen neuen „Deep Space 9“-Roman, während Roland noch immer an „Batman & Superman: The Silver Age Vol. 1“ laboriert. DC Comics startet derweil ein erfolgreiches Paralleluniversum mit vielen bekannten Helden. Fan- und Bittbriefe, Gratis-Spiele, Bank- und Postabenteuer in San Francisco und Koblenz, Gaukler auf Ehrenbreitstein und Cinderella in Köln runden unsere bunten News ab. Lego, Schmego: Jürgen schnappte sich den Drei-Fragezeichen-Visitenkartenständer von Blue Brixx, Klemmbaustein-Hersteller mit den wildesten Kooperationen: Weltkriegsdioramen von Stalingrad, Frankreich, Berlin, dem D-Day sowie ein Modell des W31-Führerwagens gefällig? Da hilft nur noch Rolands Musikrätsel und „Assassin’s Creed Shadows“-Update. Jürgen testet derweil „Medieval Frontiers“ und „Ed und Edda Grand Prix: Racing Champions Game“, Roland kontert mit „Anthem“, „Minecraft Dungeons“, „Watch Dogs: Bad Blood“, „Watch Dogs Legion“ und „Slay the Spire“. Noch mehr Spiele: Jürgen steigt ins Crowdfunding eines „Retro Gamer“-Sonderhefts ein und geht virtuell zur Nord-Convention von Stay Forever. Und wer dachte, dass wir dieses Mal wieder über Dinos reden, muss sich gedulden: Jürgen schaffte lediglich „Eurovision Song Contest: The Story of Fire Saga“. (Aufgenommen am 5. August 2025)

L'affaire commence comme une scène de roman noir. En pleine nuit, quelqu'un dépose discrètement une vitrine en verre devant le siège d'un service archéologique en Allemagne, dans la ville de Spire, devant l'antenne locale de l'Office archéologique .À l'intérieur : des os humains, des fragments de tissus anciens, et ce qui ressemble à du mobilier funéraire. Aucun message, aucune revendication, aucune explication. Juste un colis macabre et un mystère qui intrigue aujourd'hui les archéologues aussi bien que la police.Pourquoi cette histoire fascine-t-elle autant ? D'abord parce que les premiers examens ont confirmé que les os ne sont pas récents : il s'agit bien de restes humains médiévaux, probablement âgés de plus d'un millénaire. Autrement dit, quelqu'un a eu entre les mains un matériel archéologique sensible — et l'a déposé comme une bouteille à la mer. Le geste est totalement inhabituel : les découvertes de ce type sont en général signalées obligatoirement aux autorités, car elles relèvent du patrimoine national.L'énigme s'épaissit lorsque les experts constatent que les objets dans la vitrine semblent appartenir à une même sépulture. Les tissus, bien que fragmentaires, évoquent un linceul ou des vêtements funéraires. Certains os portent même des traces suggérant un ensevelissement ancien, non une manipulation moderne. Tout laisse penser qu'un tombeau médiéval a été ouvert — mais par qui ? Et pourquoi le fruit de cette fouille clandestine se retrouve-t-il déposé anonymement devant des archéologues ?Plusieurs hypothèses sont envisagées. Une première piste évoque un pilleur de tombes amateur, effrayé par l'illégalité de sa découverte et cherchant à se débarrasser rapidement des preuves. Une autre suggère un héritage encombrant, retrouvé dans une cave ou un grenier, et confié anonymement aux autorités pour éviter les complications. Mais certains spécialistes privilégient une version plus troublante : quelqu'un aurait volontairement voulu attirer l'attention sur une fouille illicite, ou signaler qu'un site archéologique est en danger.Ce qui frappe aussi les experts, c'est la façon dont les restes ont été déposés : proprement, méthodiquement, comme si le mystérieux donateur voulait transmettre un message.

Roguelites have dominated mobile and Steam for three years — Survivor IO, Vampire Survivors, Habi's new games, and a wave of Steam hits. But the genre is hitting a wall: every run resets too much, and long-term progression is stuck in 2018.In this solo episode, Jakub breaks down the next evolution of the roguelite genre: the imprint system — a mechanic where each run becomes a permanent resource.What you'll learn• Why traditional roguelites suffer from harsh resets• How Uma Musume solved the progression problem with “run → character” imprints• How Chaos Zero Nightmare created a more accessible imprint system• Why deckbuilders (Slay the Spire-style) handle imprints perfectly• Why MegaBong, Bonk roguelites, and Ball X-Pit are missing the key feature• How imprint systems increase retention, investment, and buildcraft• Why the next Western roguelite hit will use this mechanic• Why Habi, Supercell, and 4X devs will adopt it in 2026Key takeawayThe future of roguelites is simple: your best run should never die — it should become your next strongest asset.Get our MERCH NOW: 25gamers.com/shop---------------------------------------This is no BS gaming podcast 2.5 gamers session.

On Mother's Day weekend 2025, four friends set out to climb North Early Winters Spire in Washington's North Cascades, but a single rusted piton anchor failed during their descent, sending all four climbers plummeting 500 to 700 feet down the mountain. Three men died instantly from the fall, while 38-year-old Anton Tselykh miraculously survived despite suffering a cracked skull, broken ribs, internal bleeding, and head trauma. What followed was one of the most remarkable self-rescues in climbing history—and a mystery that even the U.S. Forest Service investigation couldn't explain: why did one man survive when three others didn't? 00:00 Introduction to Case Knives 00:25 Escape Ads with Patreon 00:59 Welcome to Crux True Survival Stories 01:34 Anton Tselykh's Nightmare Begins 03:15 The North Cascades: A Treacherous Terrain 05:38 Meet the Climbing Team 08:22 The Climb and the Descent 14:11 The Fatal Decision 19:01 The Climbers' Final Descent 20:03 The Fall and Its Immediate Aftermath 22:38 Anton's Struggle for Survival 25:07 The Rescue and Recovery Efforts 30:00 The Investigation and Findings 33:45 Lessons Learned and Final Thoughts Listen AD FREE: Support our podcast at patreaon: http://patreon.com/TheCruxTrueSurvivalPodcast Email us! thecruxsurvival@gmail.com Instagram https://www.instagram.com/thecruxpodcast/ Get schooled by Julie in outdoor wilderness medicine! https://www.headwatersfieldmedicine.com/ References U.S. Forest Service Climbing Accident Report - North Early Winters Spire, Early Winters Couloir https://bloximages.newyork1.vip.townnews.com/kxly.com/content/tncms/assets/v3/editorial/8/44/844567ae-de1f-463b-9ba0-3c157259fb33/6848c7bac1406.pdf.pdf Okanogan County Sheriff's Office - Official Statements Methow Valley News - "Surviving climber shares harrowing account of fall" https://methowvalleynews.com/2025/05/22/surviving-climber-shares-harrowing-account-of-fall/ Spokesman-Review - "Report offers details on North Cascades climbing accident" https://www.spokesman.com/stories/2025/jun/10/report-offers-details-on-north-cascades-climbing-a/ CBS News - "Climber who survived fall that killed 3 friends was unconscious for hours, awoke in dark before seeking help" https://www.cbsnews.com/news/surviving-climber-fall-killed-3-unconscious-awoke-dark-calling-help/ CBS News - "Dramatic details emerge after climber survives 400-foot fall that killed 3 friends in Washington state" https://www.cbsnews.com/news/triple-fatal-climbing-fall-washington-state-survivor-details/ Seattle Times/Spokesman-Review - "What we know about the North Cascades climbing accident that killed three" https://www.spokesman.com/stories/2025/may/14/what-we-know-about-the-north-cascades-climbing-acc/ KOMO News - "Seattle climber recounts survival after 400-foot fall in North Cascades accident" https://komonews.com/news/local/400-foot-fall-north-cascades-deadly-incident-accident-okanogan-couny-satisfactory-condition-cristine-woodworth-tragedy-anchor-piton-failure-washington-state-40-miles-april-22 NCW Life - "Report: Piton failure sent mountaineers to their deaths" https://www.ncwlife.com/news/report-piton-failure-sent-mountaineers-to-their-deaths/article_2c279af4-37d7-41bd-8fce-36d90492bd23.html Your Source One - "Report: Missteps Caused Fatal Climb Fall in Okanogan County" https://www.yoursourceone.com/columbia_basin/report-series-of-missteps-led-to-deadly-north-cascades-climbing-fall-in-okanogan-county/article_f14ed12f-3b01-4a04-89b6-16a68de5529a.html KXLY News - "Report details what went wrong in accident that killed three climbers in the Washington Cascades" Fluke Corporation - Official Statement on Vishnu Irigireddy Facebook/GoFundMe - Olga Martynenko's Statements Okanogan County Search and Rescue (OCSAR) Snohomish County Helicopter Rescue Team   Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.

How can you create an agency that outlasts trends? When you've been around for 75 years in the ad world, you've seen it all, from Mad Men, media buying by fax, the rise of the internet, and now, AI. Today's featured guest runs an agency that has been doing full-service marketing since 1950. What's impressive isn't just their longevity but also how they've stayed relevant and human in a business that changes faster than a TikTok trend. Jennifer Spire is the CEO of Preston Spire, an independent Minneapolis-based creative agency that's been helping brands grow with full-service marketing since 1950. She's the agency's fourth CEO, starting in small independent agencies, rising through global holding companies, and bringing both worlds' lessons to how she leads today. That mix of experiences shaped her leadership style grounded in independence, driven by creativity, and fiercely protective of agency culture. In this episode, we'll discuss: Building a culture that lasts seven decades and beyond. Why independence still matters in the agency world. The future of agency talent and AI.

How One Agency Has Stayed Relevant for 75 Years Preston Spire started as a design shop in 1950 and quickly grew to a full service advertising agency, which differs from what we think of as full service today. Over the decades, it's evolved continuously, reinventing itself with every shift in marketing. Jennifer says the real secret to their longevity is adaptability. "It's really hard to continue to evolve and stay strong, but I think there's a lot to be said for an agency that can evolve and still grow while being relevant." Now they're 25 years away from a century, which is both impressive and humbling, as well as something they want to highlight more. Surprisingly, some advisors have actually told Jennifer it'd be best to not mention their 75-year run, since some might assume a 75-year-old agency should be bigger by now. However, Jennifer has a different perspective. For her, you don't have to be one of the biggest agencies to be better and longevity isn't a weakness but rather proof of resilience and reinvention. From Big Agency Bureaucracy to Small Agency Freedom Before joining Press Inspire, Jennifer spent years inside the machine of large agencies, where shareholder-driven decisions often overshadowed what's best for clients or teams. There, she learned that you don't have to be bigger to be better, a philosophy that now fuels how she runs Press Inspire, as she has chosen to keep it small enough to stay personal but strong enough to compete with anyone. Once she left the big-agency world for an independent shop, Jennifer cut her teeth doing everything from answering phones, assisting on shoots, starting media departments, and running PR. That early experience taught her the one skill every agency leader needs — resourcefulness — something she now encourages young people to develop early in their careers. Her time at big agencies, though, showed her what not to do. "You end up making decisions that are best for shareholders, not clients," she said. "At a smaller agency, I wanted everyone to be able to chart their own path and make decisions that serve both the client and the team." Building an Agency Culture Keeps People for Deacades People stay for decades at Preston, some for 37 years, others 30, and three just recently celebrated 25-year anniversaries. That kind of loyalty is nearly unheard of in today's agency churn cycle. So what's the secret? Balance. Jennifer encourages collaboration between long-time employees and newer hires with fresh perspectives. The agency operates in a hybrid setup, with three days in-office to keep creativity flowing while maintaining flexibility. It's a rhythm that keeps collaboration alive without burning people out. "Being together helps," she said. "That human connection is something you can't replicate over Zoom." Their internal compass is guided by what they call COOP values: Courage, Originality, Openness, and Positivity. The team is encouraged to take risks, fail fast, learn, and keep moving forward. Leading with Clarity: Building Alignment and Growth Paths Jennifer may be CEO, but being at a smaller agency she's not above the grind. She manages operations, oversees HR and finance, and still maintains direct relationships with every major client. That visibility matters because, as she explains, clients need to know leadership is invested in their business. Her team structure also breaks down roles by what percentage of their time is spent leading, managing, or making. This clarity helps people grow without being shoved into management if it's not something they want for their careers. This way, they get to build their unique path within the agency, a key to keeping them happy with their work. Quarterly goals, regular feedback, and individualized growth paths keep everyone aligned and fulfilled — a framework that scales culture without micromanagement. Furthermore, constant feedback, quarterly goals, and individualized growth paths help keep everyone aligned and fulfilled. Why Staying Independent Still Wins for Some Agencies Does a 75-year-old independent agency get offers from the big holding companies? They do, actually; all the time. Jennifer says M&A emails land in her inbox daily. But she's not interested. "We've had serious talks with other agencies," she said, "but we've said no every time. Staying independent is critical to our success." If they sold, they'd probably start making decisions for investors instead of their people and be back in the big agency world she escaped. For Jennifer, independence isn't just about control, it's about protecting the culture that makes their agency different. The freedom to put clients and people first is what keeps the agency thriving. Preparing for the Future: AI's Impact on Agency Talent Jennifer's not blind to the future. She's already planning staffing and financial strategy through 2030, a move that would make most agencies sweat. One question she's wrestling with: how AI will change entry-level roles and career paths. "AI has been an incredible tool and has allowed us to be more efficient," she said. "But if it takes away too much of the junior work, where do mid-level people come from five years from now?" The truth is that the jobs won't vanish, they'll evolve. Junior people using AI can perform at mid-level. Mid-level people can perform like senior leaders. You'll just need fewer of them. Still, Jennifer sees it as a call to action for colleagues and agency leaders alike: train people not just in the AI tools, but in critical thinking, problem solving, creativity, and the human side of marketing.

RUNDOWN   Was this the single greatest weekend in Seattle sports history? Mitch and Hotshot relive Friday night's 15-inning epic at T-Mobile Park as the Mariners advanced to the ALCS — Hotshot shares his in-stadium perspective, spilled beer and all, describing the crowd as “ear-splitting, like 1995 all over again.” Mitch calls Bryce Miller's Game 1 masterpiece in Toronto “legendary” and compares it to the Mariners' own must-win over Detroit. Then comes the forgotten hero of the weekend: Washington QB Damon Williams Jr., whose 538-yard, four-touchdown night went largely unseen while fans watched baseball on their phones. Add in the Seahawks' 20–12 win over Jacksonville (seven sacks despite missing key defenders), a Kraken overtime winner, and even Humpy the Salmon's long-awaited race victory — and Mitch declares it “the most joy-filled Seattle weekend in decades.” Mitch welcomes Joe Doyle (Over Slot) and Brady Farkas (Refuse to Lose Podcast) after Seattle's gritty 3–1 win to open the ALCS in Toronto — a game nobody expected them to take. The trio break down Bryce Miller's six-inning gem on three days' rest, the early escape that steadied him, and how his righty-righty splitter and held-velocity heater set the tone. They praise the bullpen trio of Spire, Brash, and Muñoz, the clutch base-running by Randy Arozarena, and Cal Raleigh's homer that flipped the energy of the entire series. Mitch is joined by Brady Henderson (ESPN.com) and Jacson Bevens (Cigar Thoughts) after the Seahawks' 20-12 road win over Jacksonville — a cross-country statement built on a revived pass rush and Sam Darnold's continued efficiency. The trio break down Byron Murphy's monster day (2 sacks, 7 pressures), a seven-sack team effort that could've reached double digits, and the coaching adjustments Mike McDonald made one week after the Tampa Bay meltdown. They highlight Darnold's nearly flawless 295-yard, 2-TD outing and debate whether he's already a top-tier QB in the NFC. CBS analyst Rick Neuheisel joins Mitch after witnessing Indiana's stunning 30–20 win over Oregon in Eugene — the Hoosiers' first-ever road win over a top-five team. Rick praises head coach Kurt Signetti for his “keep-it-inside” defensive discipline and authenticity, calling him “hotter than Texas chili” as Penn State's likely next target after James Franklin's firing. They discuss the money storm brewing in the Big Ten's upcoming $2.4 billion media deal, why booster influence now drives coaching turnover, and how NIL has reshaped the sport's economy. Rick breaks down SEC chaos after Auburn's controversial finish versus Georgia, the Texas rebound behind Steve Sarkisian, and why parity is spreading as defensive-line depth thins across power programs. Mitch “plants his spear” for Washington QB Damon Williams Jr., claiming him for Taco Time's Doing Some Work honors after a 538-yard night, while Rick awards his crispy burritos to Texas A&M's defense — 2-for-33 on third downs over three games.   GUESTS   Brady Farkas | Host, Refuse to Lose Podcast (Mariners on SI) Joe Doyle | MLB Draft & Mariners Analyst, Over-Slot Substack Brady Henderson | Seahawks Insider, ESPN Jacson Bevens | Writer, Cigar Thoughts Rick Neuheisel | CBS College Football Analyst, Former Head Coach & Rose Bowl Champion   TABLE OF CONTENTS   0:00 | Greatest Seattle Sports Weekend Ever?
