After we regale each other with our most recent run-ins with the wildlife around us, we discuss whether or not children should/do/are allowed/must bicker with each other in order to develop into normal adults. Spoiler alert: we are against sin in all of its forms, whether the person carrying the sin out is young/tired/hungry/a sibling. Join us! The post “Bickering” appeared first on Sheologians.
Is your grocery bill beefier than your sandwich? This week, Joe Saul-Sehy, OG, and Neighbor Doug unpack inflation in a way that only we can—by biting into Len Penzo's Annual Sandwich Survey. Yes, prices are up, and yes, you can still eat well without triggering a credit card crisis. But it's not just meat and mustard on today's menu. We're also serving a fresh look at 401(k) “leakage”—that drip-drip-drip of hardship withdrawals that's turning your retirement plan into a leaky faucet. You'll get pro-level insight on how to patch those holes before your future income soaks the floor. And if you're paying for (or dreading paying for) college, Christine from the Stacker community, who works in higher ed, joins to offer sharp and timely advice on keeping costs in check—from completing the FAFSA to finding overlooked aid. Len Penzo's Sandwich Index Which sandwiches give you the most delicious bang for your inflation-adjusted buck? (Spoiler: bologna stages a quiet comeback.) 401(k) Trouble Brewing Hardship withdrawals are on the rise. Why it matters, how to avoid them, and what better options exist when life throws you a cash crisis. Tracking Expenses Like a Pro Joe, OG, and Doug explore the subtle ways inflation seeps into your budget—and how paying attention to where your money leaks gives you power back. Higher Ed, Lower Bills Stacker Christine breaks down must-know tips on navigating skyrocketing tuition, including a FAFSA pep talk that could save you thousands. Tuna vs. Roast Beef: The Sandwich Showdown Plus: Is the BLT still king? Can the humble tuna salad hold its ground against the mighty Big Mac? And where does salami fit into the sandwich power rankings? Trivia, Movie Talk, and Park City Tales No Stacking Benjamins episode is complete without a detour or three—from Doug's trivia trap to stories from the road and screen. Takeaway for Stackers: In high-cost times, it's the small wins—like swapping in store brands, packing a lunch, or tracking that budget leak—that give you the edge. And while it's tempting to ignore those tiny cracks in your retirement plan or daily spending, you're much better off fixing them before the flood.

You're standing in an open house, sweating in a blazer, and someone asks how many HVAC units are in the home. Cue the internal panic. In this episode, we're diving into one of the most relatable questions we've ever received: How much do I actually need to know about houses to be a good Realtor? Spoiler alert: more than “I'll find out for you” on repeat, but less than a licensed contractor. Whether you're brand new or years in, this episode will help you figure out where the gaps are in your knowledge, how to fill them, and what your clients really expect from you. We share our own early embarrassments (looking at you, open house meltdown), what we've learned along the way, and how we approach showing prep, including how much we know before we ever step foot in the door. We'll talk about: What to say when you don't know the answer The key home systems and materials every Realtor should understand How we research and prep for showings and inspections The most efficient ways to learn about houses on the job What we do and don't memorize before a showing Why attending inspections is better than reading reports This episode is full of practical advice, permission to not know everything, and a little pep talk to go learn your product. Because you can't sell what you don't understand. Take one hour this week and walk through a vacant home or attend an inspection. Ask questions. Learn what you don't know. It'll pay off in client confidence and better service. Key Quotes/Takeaways “You can't sell what you don't understand.” —Katy “It's not about knowing everything. It's about knowing where to find the answer.” —Alissa “If you keep saying ‘I'll find out,' eventually clients will wonder what exactly you do know.” —Katy “You're not the inspector, but you are supposed to be an informed professional.” —Alissa “Knowing your product builds confidence. And confidence builds trust.” —Katy Leave us a review at ratethispodcast.com/hustlehumbly Get your FREE Database Template Email Templates 101: emailtemplates101.com Build Your Own Business 101: hustlehumblypodcast.com/byob Agent Systems 101: agentsystems101.com All Resources: hustlehumblypodcast.com Submit your topic ideas and toasts to team@hustlehumblypodcast.com Music: Straight A's by Conner Price The Good Life by Summer Kennedy

One of the many signs of self-realization, or spiritual progress, is a natural decline in attachment to having our desires fulfilled. Thom explored this in depth in an earlier episode on vairagya, or non-attachment.Ironically, another hallmark of self-realization is that our desires actually become more likely to be fulfilled. In this episode, Thom explores why that is, through the lens of punya, a concept from the Vedic tradition.As with most Vedic principles, punya isn't something we need to believe in, it's something we can verify directly through our own personal experience.Episode Highlights[00:45] Support of Nature for Your Desires[03:14] Degrees of Cosmic Intelligence[07:21] Only Evolution is Happening[09:16] How Big is Your Consciousness?[12:11] Who is the I?[15:26] Something Happened on the Way to Disneyland[18:43] Spoiler Alert[21:05] Leishavidya – The Faint Remains of Ignorance[24:41] Nothing is Going WrongUseful Linksinfo@thomknoles.com https://thomknoles.com/https://www.instagram.com/thethomknoleshttps://www.facebook.com/thethomknoleshttps://www.youtube.com/c/thomknoleshttps://thomknoles.com/ask-thom-anything/
Pike and M'Benga avoid trying to say the "Z" word. Join your moss-loving hosts as they discuss genre-hoppping plots, hats on hats on hats, and continued additions to the rapidly expanding (if still frustratingly one-dimensional) corpus of Gornlore. Also, there are lists and doody or no doodies and silly voices and listener mail and, perhaps, a digression or two. Importantly, we foolishly and mistakenly refer to this episode at #298 during our intro - nothing could be further from the truth! It is indeed, despite our verbal error, episode #299. Enjoy! Spoiler warning! We dive right into a detail-rich discussion of this episode of Star Trek: Strange New Worlds, so if you haven't had a chance to see it yet – beware! Next week: We continue our weekly coverage of Season 3 of Star Trek: Strange New Worlds with "A Space Adventure Hour" Note that this and all episodes of the It's Got Star Trek podcast contain explicit language and, frankly, an unnecessary amount of offensive content, so the show is intended only for adults and really really cool kids.

This week on the You Are Not Broken podcast, I'm joined by the incredible Dr. Rocio Salas-Whalen, an expert in obesity medicine who breaks down the real science behind GLP-1 medications like Ozempic and Wegovy. Spoiler: they've actually been around since 2005 for diabetes, and only now are we waking up to their potential in treating obesity as the complex disease it is—not a failure of willpower. We talk about how COVID changed the national conversation on obesity, shifting it from “personal choice” to a serious health risk that deserves real medical treatment. We get into how GLP-1s work, why maintaining muscle is critical during weight loss, and the often-ignored psychological shifts that happen when your body changes rapidly. Dr. Salas-Waelin also clears up the noise: Are GLP-1s safe? Are they just for the ultra-rich? Will they be lifelong meds or stepping stones? And what's next in hormone-based obesity treatment? This is a must-listen if you're using—or considering—GLP-1s, working in healthcare, or just want to understand what's really going on behind the headlines. In this episode, we cover: Why GLP-1s aren't actually new—and why that matters How COVID helped the world reframe obesity as a disease The importance of muscle preservation during weight loss How to make sure your protein intake supports your body What happens to your brain when your body changes fast Myths and misconceptions about the safety and use of GLP-1s The future of GLP-1s: personalized care, better formulations, and smarter dosing Why body composition (not just weight) should be part of the conversation This episode is about science, empowerment, and getting real with the tools we have to help people feel better in their bodies—inside and out.

In this episode of Spellbreakers, host Matt Trump dives into the cosmic oddity of “3I/Atlas,” the third confirmed interstellar object to enter our solar system. Equal parts science lecture and poetic musing, Matt explains what makes this object so unique, from its hyperbolic trajectory and close pass between Earth and Mars to the significance of its discovery by the ATLAS observatory system, ironically, on the 27th anniversary of the film Armageddon. Along the way, Matt unpacks the rigorous observational science behind astronomical discoveries, celebrates the discipline's historical roots, and firmly defends astronomy's legitimacy against skeptics. With humor, heartfelt appreciation for his own scientific training, and detailed breakdowns of orbits, brightness, and telescope methodology, Matt brings this extraordinary celestial visitor down to Earth. Spoiler: it's (probably) not aliens, but it's still pretty awesome.
Jared and Jordana are back with another movie review episode of The Materialists, directed by Celine Song and starring Dakota Johnson, Chris Evans, and Pedro Pascal. Spoiler alert!!

From red flag roommate situations to Coke-and-beer drink orders, J&J debate every messy decision and chaotic romance. Is it a rom-com, a satire, or something much darker?

It's an eclectic week around here at Breakfast All Day with comedies old and new, a little body horror, and a good friend stopping by to share his insights. We begin with "The Naked Gun," a reboot of the classic comedy franchise, based on the brilliantly zany "Police Squad!" series. Liam Neeson stars as the bumbling Lt. Frank Drebin Jr., opposite femme fatale Pamela Anderson. We laughed a lot, and it's only 85 minutes long. In theaters. Next, Tim Grierson steps in to help Christy with a review of "Together." Real-life husband and wife Dave Franco and Alison Brie play a longtime couple exploring their co-dependency when they move to the country. In theaters. Finally, with "Happy Gilmore 2" now streaming on Netflix, we reviewed that AND watched the original "Happy Gilmore" from 1996. Somehow, neither of us had seen this essential Adam Sandler comedy. So you get back-to-back reviews of both movies in the second half of the episode. We promise to return to Movie News LIVE! next Friday. It's been a busy few weeks with travel and deadlines, and we appreciate you being here with us as we're scattered about during the summer. Thanks for listening.

Kicking off August with a very special episode with the the brilliant minds behind Zello and Cinelease. They just announced a game-changing acquisition that's bringing our industry back to its roots - where crews are empowered and things get done without red tape. As someone who's filmed in LA most of my career, I know Hollywood's real magic isn't what's on screen—it's the thousands of passionate people behind the scenes. Cinelease has been one of those constants for me. No matter the scope or budget, they always found a way to make it work. What makes this deal special? The timing is everything. After strikes, productions fleeing overseas, and endless layoffs, while others consolidate into massive corporate machines, Zello is taking Cinelease private and back to its entrepreneurial roots. This isn't just business—it's about people. Some Cinelease employees have been there 35 YEARS. That tells you everything about how they treat their team. Now with Zello's network backing them, they're expanding that family culture into new markets and creating more opportunities for all of us who make this industry run. Tune in for this exclusive deep dive on how this acquisition came to be and what it means for the future. Spoiler: it's bright ✨

Or, how focusing on good drama will result in good subtext. We often hear how subtext is important for good screenwriting. We're here to tell you it isn't. Good subtext is a result of good drama, and your focus should be on creating that good drama. But how? In this episode, Chas Fisher and Stu Willis are joined by screenwriter+teacher, Tom Vaughn (Winchester) to delve into the world of subtext. We kick off the discussion by talking through Tom's article “Why Subtext is Overrated” and break down his core idea that subtext is a byproduct of character goals, tactics and fears. We explore this further through close examination of “the other way” scene from MICHAEL CLAYTON, “the strudel” scene INGLORIOUS BASTARDS (both known for their subtext) and the “new years” sequence from THE SUBSTANCE. Inevitably discussion also terms to the relationship of subtext to emotional truth, theme, symbolism, dramatic irony and filmmakers subtext (?!).

You've just been promoted — congrats, right? Not so fast. In this episode of the Inside EMS podcast, cohosts Chris Cebollero and Kelly Grayson get real about what it actually means to step into a leadership role. Spoiler alert: it's not just a new title and a gold badge. It's a complete shift in responsibility, from caring for patients to caring for your people. Together, they break down how new leaders often swing too far: either trying to be everyone's buddy or going full micromanager. They talk servant leadership, earning trust daily, the power of listening and what “protecting your people from bad decisions above” really looks like. If you're stepping into a new role — or trying to recover from a rocky start — this episode is packed with hard truths, some laughs and solid advice from two guys who've lived it. Memorable quotes “Ask a lot of questions and give your subordinates some ownership over how decisions are made. They didn't get stupid overnight when you got a white shirt. They're still the good people they were before.” — Kelly Grayson “Leadership isn't a title, it's not a reward, it's a responsibility. It's a verb, not a noun, and you have to be able to show your leadership every day.” — Chris Cebollero “Leadership's not about perfection. It's about showing up every day and trying to get better. It's being present in the moment. You show up for your people, you help them be their very best, and you never stop learning how to lead better.” — Kelly Grayson Rate & review Inside EMS Enjoying the show?

What if your date has never been in a serious relationship? What if they voted differently than you in 2016? What if there are some glaring differences? The girls get into the nuance of context, the difference between patterns and one-offs, and how to tell if you're seeing a warning sign or just someone's humanity showing. Spoiler: not every flag requires a full evacuation. Some just require a little more digging.Whether you're a walking green flag or proudly toxic with a spreadsheet, this one's for anyone who's tired of pretending we're all dating in a vacuum.

Hey BA Fam! Mandi is flying solo this week, and whew—she came with heart, and hard truths. She’s breaking down what’s really going on in today’s job market beyond the headlines, and what she’s learning from working 1:1 with high-achieving women who are stuck in the “I have the résumé, but why can’t I get the offer?” cycle. Spoiler: It’s not your résumé. It’s your network. In this episode: Why her new 12-session VIP coaching model is shifting lives (and not just for her clients) Why LinkedIn visibility still matters (yes, even if you hate it) The power of internal referrals and how she leverages her own network to open doors What career growth has to do with gardening (yes, really—succession planting is the metaphor you didn’t know you needed) Why women in senior roles still need to sow new seeds and push past discomfort to make new career connections How to approach networking without being the “take-take-take” person PLUS:Mandi’s take on the U.S. fertility panic, RFK’s eugenics-adjacent policy ideas, the “Donate to Pay the National Debt” nonsense (yes, that’s real), and why even Fluffy and Fido are feeling the effects of inflation.
This week on Blurry Hysteria, enlightenment gets loaded and detention turns into a dance party.First stop: Thailand, where one monk decided to solve a holy disagreement with a very unholy piece—yes, he shot a fellow monk after a heated temple debate. It's like Kill Bill: Dharma Edition. Spoiler alert: Buddha does not approve of bullets in the lotus position.Then, over in the UK, a teacher channels full chaos mode—swigging booze in class, swearing at students, and finishing it off with an impromptu performance of the Macarena. Was it a nervous breakdown or just Tuesday? Either way, it's giving substitute teacher energy on meth.Between misfiring monks and Macarena meltdowns, it's another week where logic takes a backseat and Conspiracy Bot gets way too into interpretive dance.Links & Resources
