Jason and Rosie just got out of a packed early screening of Spider-Man: Brand New Day, and their spoiler-free verdict is blunt: this might be the best Spider-Man movie yet. They dig into the chemistry between Tom Holland and Zendaya, Jon Bernthal's turn as the Punisher opposite Holland, and how the film leans into a lonelier, more down-on-his-luck Peter Parker than we've seen before. They also talk cinematography (shot on Kodak, colored by Tom Paul of Drive fame), hand out letter grades to the cast — including Sadie Sink, Jacob Batalon, and Mark Ruffalo — re-rank the Tom Holland trilogy, and throw out their box office predictions.

This week's podcast kicked off with the discussion that has been pinging around the World of Warcraft community this week: a GM cheating so a streamer could clear a M+23 dungeon on time. Though we all had Opinions on that one, we quickly forged ahead to happier topics, including the newly released launch date for patch 12.1 and season 2 of Midnight. That's right kids, it's time to grab your coat and move to the exits on season 1. We also issued a warning that spoilers for patch 12.1 are being datamined, even if in a slightly weird format that probably won't end up in the game. Then, we had the announcement of the BlizzCon digital bundles and a new Hearthstone Battlegrounds season to unwrap like a gift on Christmas morning.And speaking of unflagging optimism, Cory was our guest host this week, so it was time for another Heroes of the Storm Hopium Corner.If you have a few minutes, please fill out our survey to tell us what you think about the podcast.

So many of us are doing the worst cardio for body recomp while thinking we're doing the exact thing we should be doing for weight loss.I made this mistake for years…I slaughtered myself with spin classes and logged miles on any cardio equipment I could find. Not because I loved it. But because I thought more cardio was the answer.Spoiler alert. It's not.I ended up burnt out. My cravings were through the roof. I was yo-yo dieting. And despite all that work? I was looking softer not leaner.Here's what I didn't understand then...weight loss and body recomposition are not the same thing. And the approach that drives one actively works against the other.That's what led me to create my muscle-first fat loss approach. This isn't an anti-cardio approach. It's about understanding what different types of cardio actually do to your results...and building a system where your training and nutrition work together instead of against each other.So my goal isn't to make you ditch your runs if you love them, but to highlight how to use cardio strategically so your hard work isn't making your results worse.By the end of this you're going to know the 2 forms of cardio I use strategically for muscle-first fat loss while not demonizing the cardio you may enjoy.
Welcome to episode 343 of the Löw Tide Böyz - A Swimrun Podcast! This week we are back with our third race report of 2026, fresh off Folsom Swimrun long course, a race some version of the Löw Tide Böyz has done every single year for five years running. Spoiler alert, the dynasty continues with another overall team win, but with ÖTILLÖ Casco Bay two weeks away, we treated this one as a B race and a tune up. The Novato swim community showed out in force. Sarah and Robin, who share a Masters pool with us, took the female team title, and our fellow Masters swimmer Seth posted the fastest overall time in the long course solo division. We talk about why consistent swim fitness, built in a Masters program, translates so directly to a stronger and more enjoyable swimrun. We break down our gear calls for a race with triple digit air temps and cold, dam fed water, our Vigg wetsuit choices, our shoe picks, and the nutrition and hydration protocol we have been refining, including a new caffeine timing strategy that made a real difference. From a strong opening swim in the lead to tidy transitions and a final overall team finish in around an hour and forty minutes, a few minutes faster than last year, we walk through all nine miles leg by leg, plus the community moments that make Folsom worth doing every year. Next up is ÖTILLÖ Casco Bay, marking ten years since the race first hooked us back in 2018 and our fifth year toeing the line. We preview what is shaping up to be a packed weekend in Portland, Maine. Enjoy! ~~~ That's it for this week's show.

Wildfires are wreaking havoc like never before, and in this episode, Eric G and John Dudley dig deep into the fiery chaos, sharing crucial tips on how to keep your home safe when flames are licking at the edges of your neighborhood. We're talking everything from the annoying smoke that seems to invade your space to the smart tech that can help defend your home like a superhero in a cape (or maybe just a really advanced sprinkler system). With over four million acres already scorched this year, it's not just a hot topic, it's a hot emergency. We'll dish out advice on securing your space, maintaining air quality, and even how to outsmart those pesky embers that want to crash your BBQ party. So grab a snack, settle in, and let's get your home ready to handle whatever Mother Nature throws our way! Navigating the wild world of home improvement, we kicked things off with some thrilling updates. Picture this: my girlfriend's kid is about to dive into homeownership with a shiny new starter home! But hold your horses, because yours truly is on inspection duty. Armed with blue tape and a heat gun, I'm ready to uncover any hidden gremlins lurking in the corners. It's like being a detective, but instead of solving mysteries, I'm solving the case of the dodgy drywall. From foundation leaks to landscaping woes, we shared some laughs and horror stories about home inspections, emphasizing that just because it's new doesn't mean it's perfect. It's a wild ride out there in the world of real estate, and we're just getting warmed up. Buckle up, as we transition into a serious discussion about wildfires. With record-breaking acres consumed by flames, we dissected the alarming state of wildfire preparedness in the U.S. We reminisced about a mind-blowing 747 firefighting aircraft that could dump tons of water but sadly never got the government contract it deserved. The debate took flight as we touched on the need for better forest management and the crazy idea of using tech to fend off these raging fires. Spoiler alert: it involves sonic waves and some seriously cool gadgets to save homes from smoke and flames. So, join us on this rollercoaster of home tips, wildfire wisdom, and a healthy dose of humor. It's more than just around the house; it's around the wild world of homeownership!Takeaways:Wildfire season is a serious concern with millions of acres burned this year, so staying informed is crucial.Keeping your home safe from wildfires involves proactive measures like installing ember-proof vents and fire-resistant landscaping.In wildfire-prone areas, technology can enhance home safety, including automated sprinkler systems that activate when fires are detected nearby.Ventilation during wildfire smoke is key—avoid running your dryer, as it can pull in harmful smoke particles into your home.Regularly check and maintain weather stripping around doors and windows to prevent smoke infiltration during wildfires.Using air filters efficiently during smoke events can significantly improve indoor air quality, so have a backup filter ready.Links referenced in this episode:aroundthehouseonline.comfrontlinewildfiredefense.comsonictech.comCompanies mentioned in this episode:AmazonFrontline Wildfire DefenseSonic Fire TechThanks for listening to Around the house if you want to hear more please subscribe so you get notified of the latest episode as it posts at https://around-the-house-with-e.captivate.fm/listenIf you want to join the Around the House Insider for access to the back catalog, Exclusive Content and a direct email to Eric G and access to the show early https://around-the-house-with-e.captivate.fm/support We love comments and we would love reviews on how this information has helped you on your house!

[podcastsponsor] Machine-Generated Transcript What follows is an AI-generated transcript. The transcript may contain errors and is not a substitute for listening to the episode. Christopher S. Penn: In this week’s In Ear Insights, let’s talk about AI detectors, one of my personal favorite subjects to rant about. But Katie, before I foam at the mouth for 30 minutes, let’s have you foam at the mouth about it. Katie Robbert: It’s such an interesting topic and obviously very polarizing right now. AI detectors in a nutshell are meant to help someone determine whether or not AI was used in any kind of writing. Now our good friend Anne Hanley pointed out, oh sure. So these AI detectors that were trained on human authors’ writings without their consent are now meant to tell these people that they didn’t write the things that the model was trained on. I’m paraphrasing, but it was basically that was the gist. And last week when we published the weekly Inbox Insights newsletter, we had a reader provide some very unpleasant feedback. This reader felt, in their opinion, that they had determined that the post I had written about “if you don’t know what AI can do, just ask it” was completely written by AI and that I should be fired. That I was lying about the use of AI in terms of it wrote it for me, that it was AI slop, that this person was going to write their own blog post about how I, the CEO of a company called Trust Insights, can’t be trusted. So that was the feedback this person had for my contribution to the newsletter last week. This week, if you subscribe to Inbox Insights, I fully disclose my use of AI in writing the newsletter and writing in general. I’m going to give you a spoiler because there’s no secret. I write the newsletter myself. I then use various AI tools to hopefully clean it up. Because the feedback I got when I was in college in my creative writing class is that I write the way that I talk. And it’s kind of a stream of consciousness. Now, as I’ve gotten older, I’ve gotten a little bit more concise and articulate, but that doesn’t mean my writing has. And so it still kind of comes out as a stream of consciousness, which I think for any writer that’s doing draft one is you just get it out. It’s why it’s called the ugly first draft, and then some people… I used to have John, our head of business development and our partner, read through and edit my posts for me. This was prior to having tools like Hemingway or AI editors. I had a human editing it. Now John’s busy making sales. He’s still happy to edit my posts, but it’s not the best use of his time. And so now I use a tool called Hemingway, which a lot of people use. Hemingway has a lot of really great features for grammar and sentence structure. I’m not trained, and I don’t have a degree in writing or English. My grammar is really bad sometimes. Sometimes I overuse passive voice. Sometimes my sentences aren’t structured well. It’s helpful to have a tool that can clean up the thing without losing the intent and sentiment of the writing. I also use our Ask the ICP skills in our cloud environment to make sure that the post that I’m writing resonates with our audience. Because if it doesn’t, why am I writing it? So I use those various tools. So the point of the newsletter this week that I dive into is, yes, I use AI to supplement and clean up my writing. No, AI does not write for me. I’ve got 10 fingers, one with a bandage, so it goes a little slower. And I type with my thumbs, typing very slowly. So sometimes I use an audio recording of me speaking something. Chris, this is something you do. But, yes, I painfully type all of my newsletters very slowly. And then AI helps me clean them up to be more concise. I don’t think that’s an uncommon practice, especially among people. This is true of, I think, Ann even posted in her newsletter this past week. Christopher S. Penn: Week. Katie Robbert: Total anarchy if you’re not subscribed. How she uses AI with her writing as well. And she said she gives it explicit instructions: read through it, review it, don’t edit anything, tell me what the edits are supposed to be. So she’s also someone who we know and love, who is a very fantastic writer, finding ways to use these tools to help enhance the writing. It can be cost prohibitive to have a human editor on your team. You may not have access to a copywriter, or you may not have a team of people who are really great at editing. There’s a lot of… So AI can fill that role for you. I’ll say it like this: I wrote the newsletter. AI helped me edit it, so it was coherent. So unfortunately for this reader, I will not be firing myself. I would appreciate you not trying to destroy my credibility, but should you choose to do so, we will deal with it at that time. Christopher S. Penn: I’m surprised you didn’t bring this up because this is the heart of the matter to me. If we think about these AI detectors, why are you using them? Why do you care? What is the purpose of an AI detector by the 5P Framework by Trust Insights? Of course. Katie Robbert: Well, the five P’s are in this week’s newsletter, so you can certainly get your healthy dose of the 5P Framework by Trust Insights. But you’re absolutely right, Chris, and that’s a miss on my part because I am human and not a sentient machine. I missed the mark on calling out that the 5P Framework by Trust Insights is a great place to start. Why are you using these AI tools? So, for me, my purpose is to edit the grammar and spelling of my content so that it’s coherent. I’m also checking with our ICP to make sure it resonates with the people I’m writing it for. But our ICP is the people part of it that really matters, because I’m not writing it for myself. I’m writing from my experience and my expertise, but I’m writing it for… For our ICP so that they get something educational out of it. I outlined my process in this week’s newsletter of how and when I use the tools and platforms. It depends. I might write it in a document, I might create an audio file, and then I’ll bring it into the large language model. I might use Hemingway. I definitely use the skills that we’ve created. And then the performance is, do I have a piece of content that I wrote and AI helped me edit that gets people to respond to the newsletter? Christopher S. Penn: It is the 5P Framework. From the perspective of the people who are using or advocating for AI detectors, what is their purpose? Because this is where I have the biggest problem I see. Yeah, no, no. From the AI detector perspective, what is your purpose in the case of this particular reader? Is your purpose just that you have a burr up your ass and you need to yell at somebody? Like, okay, you don’t need an AI detector for that. You can be a jackass. Regardless, in the case of its use in academia, the purpose is very often for academic integrity, which makes these tools very dangerous because of their false positive rate. Pangram, which is the tool that Substack most famously just implemented, has a false positive rate of 0.02 percent. If you fed every college student’s papers in America to it and said, run disciplinary proceedings, you would flag 200,000 students a year with false accusations. In the corporate world, if you’re using these tools to enforce contracts, again, that false positive rate—particularly for business-related content, which is what a lot of these tools have been trained on—is going to have a fairly high false positive rate. So the first thing people need to be very clear about is why are you using an AI detector? And is your purpose a good use of the technology? Spoiler, there really isn’t a great use of the technology for AI detection. And we’ll talk about why the technology itself is so flawed on this week’s live stream, which you can tune into Thursdays at 1 PM Eastern Time at TrustInsights.ai YouTube. But going back to the 5P Framework by Trust Insights, my biggest issue with these tools is that very often the purpose people are using them for is deeply flawed. Katie Robbert: And that, you can sort of generalize and say that, well, people don’t want AI-written content. They want content written by a human. So you could say that’s the purpose. So if this particular reader decided, I don’t want AI-written content, but this content is written by AI, this particular reader could have just moved along. But they decided to try and pick a fight. By the way, screenshots last forever. And it was a very unprofessional feedback session from this person, just as an FYI. And you know, if this person decided, okay, I feel like this is written by AI, let me put it through the detector and determine if this is written by AI. They could have just said, you know what? I don’t care for this. I don’t want this. Christopher S. Penn: Yeah, that’s what I always come back to is like, if you don’t want this, great, here’s the door. It’s like if people complain, oh, well, you didn’t write this fiction novel the way I wanted, well, then write your own damn novel. Right? No one’s stopping you from writing the novel you want to read. If you didn’t like the way I did it, go write your own and you’ll probably use AI to do it. This was the rather harsh commentary I had about Substack. Things like, we don’t really care if it’s human-written or AI-written. We care if it’s worth reading, right? If you’re publishing something that’s worth reading, there’s one Substack I subscribe to that is 100 percent AI-written. No editing passes. It is 100 percent Claude. You know it’s Claude because of Claude’s particular mechanisms. And I don’t care because the information is genuinely useful. I read it and go, I learned something. I don’t care who wrote it. I learned something. Katie Robbert: But that’s you and I, and I don’t disagree. People should be looking at it from that lens. But a lot of the general population is still stuck in the, AI is bad. It’s very black and white. Humans are good, AI is bad, don’t give me AI-written content. And so that’s still the challenge that we’re trying to overcome in the conversation that we’re trying to change. And so if their purpose is, was it written by AI, yes or no, then that’s what we have to work with, because that’s their purpose, not ours. Our opinion of their purpose is very similar to this reader’s opinion of my use of AI. As the old saying goes, opinions are like… well, you can fill in the blanks if, I won’t say it on the podcast. It’s very rude. But the point being is that you do need to figure out why you care if it was written by AI or not. And then you can go ahead and determine, was it high quality? Did I learn something? Was it useful? And then go back to the purpose, like, does it matter if it was written by AI? Now it brings up the bigger conversation, which Chris and I have talked about: AI disclosures and why those are important. And so in your newsletter, you do a very good job every week of disclosing. Here’s how much of this is AI. Here’s how I used AI. And I want to say thank you to the person who called me out because it reminded me this is a good opportunity to start doing my own AI disclosures so that hopefully we don’t continue to find ourselves in the situation of being called names. Christopher S. Penn: And so you cannot rely on them. I will give you a very solid example this week in my personal newsletter. I said, It’s 90 percent written by human. There’s 10 percent written by Claude. And I mark the section: This is what Claude said. And then just for giggles, I put it through the detector. And it said, Congratulations, it’s 100 percent human. I’m like, well, you clearly missed the part where I labeled it this is AI. So anyway, just more ranting about the tooling. The disclosures are important. And I do understand from some perspectives. There are some folks who correctly say they have problems with the ethics of AI companies or the environmental impact of AI. Totally get that, totally fair, completely reasonable. But again, it goes back to what you were saying, which is if we label it—which we all, everyone should be doing—and you are still mad, go read something that isn’t. There is an infinite amount of content out there that’s video or audio. Where I do have a problem and I think is very relevant to the conversation on the topic of AI detection is when it is not labeled or when it is intended to deceive. There is no shortage, for example right now on Instagram and TikTok, of various politicians making faked videos and photos. And thankfully they’re not doing it very well. But, okay, clearly that’s not a… that doesn’t work. But they are. The intent is to deceive. So if we go back to the 5P Framework by Trust Insights, their purpose is deception, right? And therein lies one of the valid reasons to want to use AI detectors to say, is this entity or person attempting to deceive me? Katie Robbert: I’m going to be, I’m going to challenge you on that for a second. Okay, so let’s say I’m a politician and I’m going to use AI. I can almost guarantee I’m not going to state that my purpose is deception. I’m going to state that my purpose is engagement, my purpose is attention. My purpose is oh gosh, anything probably except deception. So it’s interesting because like we can say as an outside observer, well, they’re trying to deceive us. They’re going to say with that lack of self-awareness, this is the way that I saw this thing happen. So, you know, I’m using the tools to reenact it or recreate the way that I see this. So it’s really an educational tool or whatever. So I do feel like it’s interesting that we’re saying their purpose is deception. They’re saying, no, that was never my purpose. Why would I ever want to deceive you? I’m totally honest. I’m showing you what’s possible. I’m showing you the way that I see things. Christopher S. Penn: And this gets us into the extremely deep and sticky morass known as AI ethics, which is again going back to the 5P Framework by Trust Insights. What is the purpose and is the purpose that you think you have aligned with the audience and the goals you’re trying to achieve? Because yes, attention can be a goal, but what’s the purpose behind that attention? Is it to garner more votes? Is it to beat the social media algorithms that are gatekeeping various viewpoints? What is the purpose of creating something that you know is not real? Katie Robbert: You are giving these fictional politicians a lot of credit for that deep thinking and self-awareness, but it does. You brought up AI ethics and Inbox Insights in the same issue this week coming up, where I talk about my process for using AI tools in my writing. You conclude a four-part series on responsible AI using our RAFT framework, and part four being transparency, which is really timely for what we’re talking about. One of the things that you bring up in that four-part series, and it’s brought up in a few of the different issues, is so companies whose mission statement is, and I’m paraphrasing—I apologize, Chris—something along the lines of companies who state out that they’re going to do bad things and they also are doing them, are technically following their own code of ethics. And so it’s the “do as I say, not as I do” or no, it’s the “here’s what: you do what you say and you say what you do, right?” So they do that. So therefore they are following a code of ethics. And that’s where, again, it gets really tricky. But I want to bring that up. Because responsible AI is not black and white. Ethics is not black and white. Christopher S. Penn: So no, and the reason for that is because ethics and morals are often conflated. They are different; they are completely different philosophical disciplines. But in the utilitarian ethics that a lot of the business world works on, “I do what I say and I say what I do” are essentially sort of the heart of that. So going back to the purpose of things like AI detectors, if you say this is real and it’s fake, that is unethical. If you say this is fake and it’s fake, that is ethical, right? It may or may not be moral. That is a different question because morals are based on the culture of the person and the culture that it occurs in. But from an ethics perspective, if I say this is fake and this is fake, I am behaving in an ethical manner. And so where this loops back around is to say, on the part of publishers and creators, we have an ethical obligation to be transparent and disclose. And on the part of AI detectors and the people using them, you have an obligation to be clear about what your purpose is. If your purpose is you just want to feel morally superior to someone else and you say that’s fine, you’re, I think you’re a jerk, but at least it’s clear. If you say that you’re trying to preserve the environment or what have you, but you really just want to feel morally superior, that is itself unethical because you’re not doing as you say and you’re not saying what you do. And so it is incumbent upon everybody using these tools in whatever capacity to disclose why you’re doing it and disclose how the results are going to be used. This is especially true for academia, for law, and for contracts. You have to be clear and say, we are using these tools for this purpose. And here is how we will measure the success of these tools. The performance, the fifth P in the 5P Framework by Trust Insights. You have to declare that, and if you don’t, yourself may have an ethics problem. Katie Robbert: I recently submitted an academic paper, and it was very clear in the instructions that I had to do a very large AI disclosure section on how AI was used to assemble the paper. And in that paper, if I recall correctly, I used AI to do the deep research. I then culled through the deep research to find the relevant parts for writing the paper for which I had a hypothesis. I drafted the paper. I used AI to help me clean up the paper and make it a more coherent story. And then I had to create two images, a graph and another supplemental image, and disclose what parts I used AI on. Here’s the question, though. So back to where we started, what do you do in the situation where you, the human, created the thing the detectors say, no, you didn’t? It’s AI and everybody believes the machines and not you. Like that’s not a matter of ethics anymore. That’s your reputation. Christopher S. Penn: And therein lies the problem with a lot of these detectors. The detectors are pattern matching. And again, we’ll talk about the mathematics of it this week on the live stream. But fundamentally, they’re looking at probabilities. And so if what you are creating, which academic papers in particular have a very specific kind of language to them that is highly formulaic, a pattern matching system—even if it’s 100 percent human-written—is still likely to pick it up. The example I often give is there’s a quote from Star Wars, from The Empire Strikes Back, where Yoda says, “For 800 years have I trained Jedi. My own council will I keep on who is to be trained.” Right? That’s Yoda. If you… if Yoda was to dictate that and then AI was to clean up the grammar, it would say, “I have trained Jedi for 800 years. I will keep my own council on who is to be trained.” Exact same words. AI’s just rearranging the word sequence, which dramatically changes the probabilities. And that second quote, which is still substantially the same as the first one, but with a different word order, will be flagged as AI or more likely be flagged as AI. Because in the process of editing, AI assembles things to the highest level of probability. And so for anybody, if you were doing that—as we often recommend—taking your phone out, doing a voice memo, and then having AI transcribe it and rearrange it, unless you know how to prompt it to preserve your word order, it’s going to change the language and it’s going to get flagged by AI. Even though you have proof from the voice memo itself that what you created was original. So a big part of what creators may want to think about, and this is the prescriptive part, is that I’ve actually talked about this with our friend Carrie Gorgon, who’s a lawyer. You may want to have a system where you preserve or even publish the work product that led to the final work product. I have done this with several of my books now where I publish the absolutely awful-to-listen-to voice recordings, like as I’m driving down the road. And you know, that’s usually in the deluxe edition, if you want to hear me yelling at people in traffic like, get out of the way, jackass. As part of the recordings, you can. But it also provides that provenance and lineage to say, here’s what the final product was manipulated by AI. Yes, here’s the original work product that proves that it’s a human original. Katie Robbert: But I think that also goes back to again, where we started. And you know, the commentary we referenced from Ann is that these tools are word prediction machines that have been trained on human words. We are the ones who taught it. Here are the predictable patterns that we use when we write and when we speak. Therefore, these machines, well or not well, are mimicking the way that we talk and the way that we write. Therefore, those AI detectors are detecting patterns that we taught as humans on our writing. Like it’s very… I feel like you go round and round forever. But the point being is that these tools are dangerous and can be very damaging if used incorrectly, which most people… Are using them incorrectly because they have the wrong purpose. Right? So if their purpose is to, I am angry and want to lash out at the world and I want to tear someone down today, congratulations. You are accomplishing your purpose with your performance. If your purpose, yeah, if your purpose is to like really just understand, then you know it’s going to be a while before these tools get more sophisticated. They’re not very good. Christopher S. Penn: No. And they never will because they’re always going to be reactive to whatever the latest models are capable of doing. It’s interesting. This actually inspires me as part of our upcoming AI for Writers course that we’re assembling for the Trust Insights Academy. But also maybe something that we should include is a skill that can assist people in creating stuff that sounds more like their human version. There are deterministic measures to do that, and maybe we’ll talk about that a little bit on the live stream as well.

Ever found yourself eyeing someone's “Pinterest pretty” homeschool and wondered if you're missing something? Today, I'm sitting down with Katy Wallace—our very own graphic designer at Homeschool Better Together—to pull back the curtain on what “real” homeschooling actually looks like. Katy is not just a talented visual visionary—she's an Alabama homeschool mom of teens, an accidental chicken-keeper, and someone who swore she'd never give up the corporate grind. (Spoiler: she did.)We're getting personal about how both of us landed in the world of homeschooling when it was NOT on our radar, how our school days have shifted as our families have grown, and what happens when your high schoolers start flying the nest. Katy shares how her creative side spills into her homeschool days (yes, there was sidewalk chalk involved), and why she never joined a co-op—plus how she deals with comparison and all the “shoulds” that come with doing things a little differently.We laugh about slow mornings and Southern accents, dig into why beautiful curriculum actually makes a difference, and talk honestly about sanctification, flexibility, and how homeschooling will expose all your perfectionist tendencies…and why that's not a bad thing.This one is for every homeschool mom who's wondered if she's the only one doing it her own way (hint: you're not). Join us for a down-to-earth conversation that will leave you feeling encouraged, seen, and a lot less alone.What you'll learn:Katy's totally unexpected journey from corporate life to rural homeschool mom and graphic designerThe “normal” (and not-so-normal) homeschool days—slow mornings, morning baskets, and navigating high school independenceWhat actually changes (and what doesn't) when your kids become teens and start dual enrollment or get part-time jobsWhy Katy never found a co-op that fit and how she avoids the comparison trapThe surprising impact beautiful curriculum design has on our homeschool mood and function (and how clutter really messes with us!)Pep talks on perfectionism, the myth of having it all figured out, and learning to embrace flexibility—even when you're more “planner” than “free spirit”How faith, prayer, and real-life messiness shape our days more than the right planner or perfect routineHonest talk on the sanctifying work of homeschooling (it'll grow you just as much as your kids)Resources Mentioned in This Episode:Put Your Homeschool Year on Autopilot (step-by-step planning system):The Elevate Program with Finishers Club + live planning accountability:Science TogetherHeaven is Having You by Giles AndreaeEpposumondas by Coleen Salley
Klein has taken on a new hobby. He plans to become an expert at leaf-blowing. It's perhaps his strangest endeavor so far, but if you'd like to hire Klein for a weekly blow & go please let us know. All of us who are in relationships are allegedly whipped by our partners, but who's the MOST whipped? Jake shared things we've done with/for our significant others recently and it was unbelievably to hear how spineless we really are. Spoiler alert: someone on the show rented a snorkel to find their wife's bracelet in the pool. Comedian Ryan Hamilton stopped by the studio to talk about his traumatic experience getting hit by a shuttle bus at LAX, almost killing him. It led to a call-in topic on near death experiences which included a story about a guy going into a six month coma after a motorcycle accident. We also did a live on air gender reveal for a listener couple who's expecting, and as usual we screwed it up.

You may be thinking your course is the problem. Or your offer. Or your pricing. Or your funnel. But can I be real with you? None of those are the problem. In this episode of The Expert Edge, I break down what people are actually buying when they purchase your program. Spoiler: it's not your course content. They're buying something invisible. Something you can't see on the sales page or in your emails. Something that either exists or it doesn't. They're buying certainty. Not information. Not the methodology. Certainty that if they join, they're actually going to get the result you're promising. Most coaches miss this completely. They build beautiful courses, launch with great copy, run solid ads. Then they wonder why nobody's buying when everything looks right. Because certainty isn't about the offer. It's about three specific things your audience needs to feel before they click enroll. Get these three elements aligned and watch what happens: programs fill up, conversions increase, people stop questioning whether to buy and start asking when they can start. What you'll learn: → What people are actually buying (it's not what you think) → Personal Certainty - Why your transformation story matters more than your credentials → Process Certainty - How to show the exact path people will take to get results → Proof Certainty - Why testimonials and case studies convert better than claims → How to tell your conversion story in a way that builds all three levels of certainty → The framework for crafting an offer that sells itself → Why missing one of these elements kills your conversions Discover how to authentically connect with your audience & fill your programs with a Conversion Story - Version 2.0 (AI Edition) is now available. https://www.conversionstoryformula.com Hit the "Follow" button so you don't miss an episode!

Hello Adventurers! This past weekend was the 2026 Berlin FanFest and, of course, there was a ton of announcements. So what is a podcast about Final Fantasy XIV to do? Well clearly, we gotta podcast about it! So we did. We talk about the latest job, Bastion. It's a tank with couple of huge shields with guns attached for good measure. Then some wild speculations upon what the Ranged DPS job could possibly be! After that, we roam around our mind palaces to gaze upon the wonders of the new realmships we'll get to traverse next year. Plus, we got fresh details all about the various raid series… And a Gold Sauce update no one saw coming. The Spoiler Food is: Stuffed Highland Cabbage “This traditional dish of minced meat seasoned and packed inside leafy highland cabbage, then stewed in a light broth, is sure to warm you up on the coldest of nights.” Once again, a nice warm meal to keep up going for all these ice cold details all about Evercold! Spoilers ahoy! OSMnotes From what we hear, the Berlin FanFest was just as exciting as the one in Anaheim! And Evercold keeps delivering all the news fit to print, er, podcast about!

Can you actually take a full month off from running a business? I've taken every August off since 2020. I know that might sound a bit crazy depending on where you're at right now, but for me, it's just how my business operates. In today's episode, I'm breaking down the 4 steps that make this kind of structured time off possible. Spoiler: it's not about luck, it's just intentional planning. How did today's episode land with you? If there's anything specific you want me to cover when I'm back in September, drop it in the comments or send me a DM over on Instagram. _____ Connect with me - Instagram | Website | LinkedIn | Weekly Emails

Conflict and complication at the edge of Eschatonica! In the Creed of Oracles' fortress courtyard, Antistrophe, Nicky, and Jonathan find out just how far the protocols of war go. And for those on the other side of the vast castle, progress will come only with mastery of another world's language and ritual… This week on Perpetua: Escape the Rumbling Castle! 05 Perpetua Guide [In Progress v.06] Spoiler-free Ten Hint Puzzle Guide This new section is inspired by the community addendum that xXzelgadyskXx did for the Alteros masquerade puzzle. As always, I want to try to preserve some sense of mystery for people using this guide, so I'll give a series of ten progressively more direct hints, but won't ever give the direct solution. Springsong Mural Puzzle The large mural depicting Sprinsong's legendary Heroes of the Spark is more than meets the eye. Just be careful, because if you make too many wrong moves, the ostrich-like automatons will activate and defend the secrets here! Hint 1 There's more to the mural than meets the eye. Look closely at the symbols AND the middle… Hint 2 Some of the floor tiles in this room look different than the others. Hint 3 Remember how you dealt with the flowers in the previous room? 'Springsong' is more than just a name. Hint 4 Springsong and Perpetua have different, but corresponding elements. You have to map them one to one if you want to crack this puzzle. Don't look at the next clue if you want to figure this one out yourself! Hint 5 Symbol Springsong Element Perpetua Element 3 Curved Sideways S's Breeze Air Downward Zigzags Spark Bolt Crescent Night Dark Triangle Mountain Earth Open Square Hearth Fire Teardrop Spring Ice Open Circle Sun Light Quatrefoil (Clover) Nature Poison Hint 6 In the story hidden in the Flower Room, you can learn that while the evil sorcerer of Springsong used all the elements (except Spark/Bolt) to harm the world, he took complete control of Spring (Ice), Night (Dark), and Nature (Poison). Hint 7 You'll have to use the magic of the remaining elements (Air, Bolt, Earth, Fire, Light) to complete this puzzle. Remember that in Springsong, you must perform in order to use magic! Hint 8 Don't just look at the Mural, use the "Study" action on the heroes depicted there. What can you learn from their names? Hint 9 By combining the elements together you can create different letter runes. Pay attention to the combinatory effect! By the way, the letter Z doesn't seem to exist in Springsong. Hint 10 The heroes of Springsong must be very naive if this is the password to their secret vault...

Join Me on Substack – https://wisewomanmethod If you missed Part 1, go back and listen first. This episode starts exactly where that conversation ended. Ashley Collins, my chief of staff and resident PhD I love to brag about, is back asking the questions you've been waiting for. What you're going to hear today is rare: me talking about my actual calendar, my real coaching philosophy, my relationship with ambition, and my honest, hopeful take on a season of life the internet keeps trying to convince women is awful. Spoiler: midlife is not awful. Burnout isn't caused by working too much. AI still doesn't have the Holy Spirit. What You'll Learn in This Episode: Why burnout is really an input/output problem (and what the right inputs actually look like for high-capacity women) The difference between needing a new strategy vs. needing to get out of your own way, and how a good coach can tell which one you actually need Why I wasn't worried about AI replacing my coaching practice (and what I thinks AI genuinely can and can't do) The "crystallized intelligence" that midlife women have access to that younger women don't Why our lives quietly shrink in midlife, and the one thing I would tell every woman to fight against What I think about ambition as a Christian woman (and why ambition and obedience aren't in conflict) The simplest nervous-system reset that costs nothing and works every time Timestamps: (01:01) — What gets better in midlife and the "crystallized intelligence" you earn with age (04:25) — The #1 mistake midlife women make: letting their world get smaller (05:03) — Why novelty is not optional in midlife and how to actively expand your territory (05:41) — Ambition and faith: why ambitious women are not a problem and what we've gotten wrong about ambition for too long (09:22) — I break down her weekly calendar: coaching days vs. creative days and why she protects each differently (10:33) — Why I do all her client coaching via phone (not video) and what it reveals about focused attention (11:56) — Coaching day energy: where it comes from, what it feels like, and why this gift "ends with me" (14:04) — Strategy vs. self-work: how to tell which one you actually need (and why we always want the strategy) (16:49) — My honest take on AI: what it's good for, where it fails, and why it lacks taste, wisdom, and the Holy Spirit (21:35) — How to start using AI if you're nervous about it (her actual on-ramp recommendation) (22:31) — The Claude project she uses for her husband's health (and why this might be AI's best use case) (24:02) — "Information is free. Transformation isn't." How this insight shapes everything I build with Catalyst (25:51) — Why we don't take action: what's really underneath the fear (it's not what you think) (28:13) — Burnout reframed: it's not about working too hard (30:52) — How to start asking yourself what you actually need right now (31:00) — The simplest input most women are skipping (it's free, it's outside, and it calms your nervous system) Links to great things we discussed: Catalyst Mastermind Function Health Uplift App Wise Woman Era Alli on YouTube I hope you loved this episode!
What if your voice wasn't actually… your voice?In this eye-opening (and occasionally hilarious) episode, Anne welcomes back tech expert and self-proclaimed “nerdy best friend” Beth Z (YourNerdyBestFriend.com) for a fascinating conversation about AI voice cloning, deepfakes, and why your authentic voice may be more valuable than ever.

For this week's main podcast review, Josh Parham, Dan Bayer, Giovanni Lago, and Larry Fried join me to review and discuss the first feature film from Nicolas Winding Refn in a decade, "Her Private Hell," starring Sophie Thatcher, Charles Melton, Havana Rose Liu, Kristine Froseth, Shioli Kutsuna, Aoi Yamada, Dougray Scott, Diego Calva, and Hidetoshi Nishijima. Premiering out of competition at the 2026 Cannes Film Festival, the film caused more walkouts than any other film at the festival and has gained quite a divisive reaction from critics and audiences. What did we think of it? Please tune in either on video or audio only as we debate the merits of its convoluted story, its strange performances, the neon-lit cinematography, Pino Donaggio's gorgeous score, its awards season chances, and more in our SPOILER-FILLED review.

Send us Fan MailThis week, we're hanging with the legend himself, Damon (aka Iam.Blacklabel) from Co-Op Chronicles, to talk life, love, and sports. Damon takes us deep into the gaming matrix to share what he's currently playing, and we finally ask the hard-hitting questions: What kind of mobile games does a "sophisticated" gamer actually play?
