“Somebody pressed the More Stifler button too many times” - SteveOn the penultimate episode of the 2026 Summer Blockbuster Extravaganza, we're going back for another serving of defiled dessert as we attempt to break down the sex-crazed sequel, American Wedding! Why couldn't the script bother to tell us what happened to the missing friends in the cast? And if folks are missing, why not give the MILF Guys some more to do? Would this movie have started stronger if we had a scroll or old man narrator to kick things off? Did Eugene Levy and Fred Willard have to have back surgery after carrying this movie for an hour and a half? And how did Bear get invited to the wedding?

Randy OglesbyTake a walk with me down Fascination Street as I get to know actor Randy Oglesby. Randy has been an actor on television, film, and stage for more decades than I feel comfortable saying! In this episode, we chat about some of his pre-acting jobs, and why he eventually decided to get into acting. We touch on some of his earlier acting roles and experiences, and even what famous actress was in his high school drama class. We take a little detour as we discuss some of his stage performances and projects in the Los Angeles area. Randy shares his opinions about self-tape auditions versus in the room, which he prefers and the reasons why. Finally, we dive into his roles on THREE current television shows. Randy plays president of The United States Jim Bragg on Apple TV's 'For All Mankind', police chief McNamara on Amazon Prime's 'Marvel's Spider Noir', and Bill Festersen on Peacock's 'The Burbs'. He shares a few stories around the SEVEN roles he has played in the Star Trek universe, before I pepper him with industry and audition questions that we provided by an actress who happens to also be a listener. Make sure you catch Randy on those three shows and keep an eye out for him on some of your favorite films and TV shows from past, present, and future!

Star Trek has inspired generations of fans with its optimistic vision of the future, but where does the franchise stand today? In this episode of Eat Sleep Nerd, we tackle one of the biggest questions in modern sci-fi:Is Star Trek broken?From classic series like The Original Series, The Next Generation, Deep Space Nine, and Voyager to newer entries like Discovery, Picard, Strange New Worlds, and more, we explore what's working, what isn't, and whether the franchise has lost its way.More importantly, we each pitch our own ideas for how to fix Star Trek. Should the franchise return to its roots? Take more risks? Slow down? Focus on new crews and new stories? We debate it all.

We always talk about comic books getting turned into movies, but what happens when the traffic moves backward? In this special One Shot episode of Moving Panels, host Laramy Wells is joined by co-hosts Tim Williams, Nicholas Pepin, and Gerry D. to dive deep into the massive, chaotic, and awesome world of comic books directly inspired by cinema and television.From canonical continuation series that picked up where canceled TV shows left off to insane crossover events Hollywood could never afford, we break down how the comic medium expands our favorite screen universes.What we're unpacking tonight:The Official Continuations: Joss Whedon's massive, budget-free Buffy the Vampire Slayer Season 8 and the incredible DC Universe expansions in Smallville Season 11 (including Clark becoming a Green Lantern and his tactical showdown with Batman!).The McClane Files: A deep dive into John McClane's comic history, featuring the prequel series Die Hard: Year One and Laramy's recent read, A Million Ways to Die Hard.The Slashers & Sci-Fi Icons: How Ash Williams (Army of Darkness/The Evil Dead) became a comic book staple, the iconic Dark Horse Alien vs. Predator runs, and the massive Ghostbusters and Star Trek comic universes.The 80s Cartoon Toy Box: The deep-cut lore of Transformers, G.I. Joe, M.A.S.K., Voltron, ThunderCats, Dino-Riders, Bravestarr, Visionaries, SilverHawks, and Inhumanoids.⚠️ ANNOUNCEMENT: We hit a bit of a snag behind the scenes tonight. At one point during the recording, Laramy suffered a massive computer glitch. We kept the tapes rolling anyway, and the guys carried the torch to the finish line. We're curious to see if the audience can actually catch exactly when Laramy is no longer a part of the episode!

On this week's episode of our show, Captain Ingle and I set a course for the animated side of Star Trek. We begin with the original animated series, wherein intergalactic salesman Cyrano Jones brings genetically modified tribbles onboard the Enterprise. Second, we look at Lower Decks, wherein Ransom and Mariner Attempt to repair a space elevator while Boimler agrees to be more amenable to other people's requests. And finally, we look at Prodigy, wherein a genetic scientist promises to help Dal figure out his origins while the Romulans close in. Join us as we go boldly!

Frågan tycks inte längre vara om utan när vi kommer till Mars. Maria Küchen funderar över vad som får oss att bryta upp och söka nya världar. På jorden såväl som i rymden. Lyssna på alla avsnitt i Sveriges Radios app. ESSÄ: Detta är en text där skribenten reflekterar över ett ämne eller ett verk. Åsikter som uttrycks är skribentens egna. Först sänd: 2017-02-06.År 2031 ger sig den första besättningen astronauter av från jorden. Ett år senare slår de sig ner på Mars. Åtminstone enligt planerna som presenteras av Mars-ONE, ett holländskt företag som redan har plockat ut kandidater till besättningen.Det hela avfärdas av vissa som ett PR-jippo. Andra tar projektet Mars-ONE på fullt allvar. Frågan tycks inte längre vara OM människan en dag landar på Mars, utan vilka som gör det först.NASA vill sända astronauter till Mars innan 2030-talet är över, i samarbete med bland rymdstationen ISS, privata företag och Kinas rymdfart. Andra människan på månen, astronauten Buzz Aldrin, stödjer projektet helhjärtat. I dag är han över åttio år men pigg och alert, och ses ofta bära en T-shirt med texten GET YOUR ASS TO MARS.Och det privata rymdföretaget SpaceX meddelar att man vill sända iväg sin första bemannade rymdfarkost mot Mars redan 2024. SpaceX grundare, den excentriske och visionäre miljardären Elon Musk, vill se en koloni på Mars med en miljon invånare inom hundra år. Själva ändamålet med att grunda SpaceX, säger han, var att göra människan till en multiplanet species, en art som lever på många planeter.Det låter rätt galet. Kan det verkligen genomföras, och i så fall, vad ska det vara bra för? Varför kolonisera rymden? Varför stannar vi inte bara där vi är och vårdar den enda planet vi faktiskt har?Vi ger oss av för att vi kan och för att vi vill – och för att vi måste.Tvånget att färdas genom rymderna betonas gärna i fiktioner: diktsviten Aniara; teveserien Månbas Alpha; David Bowies sång Space Oddity som finns på en LP från 1969, året för den första månlandningen. Rymdskeppets besättning har förlorat kontakten med jorden och är hänvisad till en färd mot det okända, utan hopp om återvändo eller räddning. Det blir metaforen för en mänsklighet som tappat kontakten med sitt ursprung, och måste underkasta sig en högteknologisk civilisation som människan har skapat men inte längre är herre över.SF-fiktioner som Star Trek betonar i stället kunskapen och viljan. Där speglas en mänsklighet på väg framåt, inte bara tekniskt och geografiskt utan också etiskt ­– en mänsklighet som försöker förstå och respektera sig själv genom att se andra, antingen de nu är vulkaner eller klingoner eller besättningsmedlemmar med olika ursprung.Jag får rysningar av Star Trek-seriens valspråk, inte bara för rymdens skull utan för det urmänskliga i uppdraget: to explore strange new worlds; to seek out new life and new civilizations; to boldly go where no one has gone before. Jag får rysningar av både lust och avsmak: av skönheten i det och av ekot från historien, ett eko från kolonialismen.Att ge sig av med full insikt om att man aldrig kommer tillbaka, det har människor gjort sen urminnes tider. Från början var vi nomader. Vi vaknade varje morgon och lämnade platsen där vi hade sovit för att aldrig återvända. På jägar- och samlartiden, då ingick knappast individualismen och individens rätt till fria val i människans berättelse om sig själv. Individualismen är ny, och kanske är den fortfarande rätt så provinsiell. Den har uppstått och odlats i västerlandet under några hundra år, och individualismens utveckling har gått hand i hand med kolonialismen. Kolonisering av mars innebär att unga, välutbildade, äventyrliga och fertila människor frivilligt fattar individuella beslut att lämna jorden för att inte återvända. På nåt vis blir ju detta juvelen i den västerländska individualismens krona – en individualism som bejakar handlingskraft och styrka, men inte har lika mycket plats för det ömtåliga och stillsamma.Frivilliga mars-pionjärer finns det förvånansvärt gott om. Mars-ONE har idag ett startfält på hundra kandidater. Där finns Ritika från Indien, Sandra från Brasilien, Sadegh från Iran och så vidare, men de flesta är européer och amerikaner.De vill inte stanna kvar där de befinner sig. Inte heller jägar- och samlartidens nomader stannade kvar där de befann sig. Vi hade ännu inte börjat odla något, så jorden band oss inte. Vi bröt upp, ständigt, men på jägar- och samlartiden var vi inga djärva marsresenärer eller romantiska poor lonesome cowboys i silhuett mot solnedgången. Vårt kontinuerliga uppbrott var inte som till exempel i On The Road av Jack Kerouac. On the road är en rätt så tidstypisk västerländsk nittonhundratalsgestaltning av individens, oftast mannens, flykt från ansvar och sammanhang. På jägar- och samlartiden däremot, då bröt vi upp för att vi behövde samla mat för dagen.Vi fortsatte för att vi måste, då som nu. Att stanna kvar var inte ett alternativ, säger en del människor som på vinst och förlust har flytt från outhärdliga förhållanden i sina hemländer. Människan har fötter, inte rötter, säger andra.Vi strävar kanske mot Mars för att vi inte riktigt längre får plats på en alltmer överbefolkad och förödd jord, och vi strävar som sagt mot Mars för att vi kan och vill, ja ”vi” och ”vi”. De högteknologiska västerländska planerna på att kolonisera Mars är förstås ett projekt för ett fåtal, och det hela kanske förblir en Startrek-aktig dröm bara, men, drömmen om något annat där ute, något okänt som vi ännu bara kan fantisera om, den är en allmänmänsklig drivkraft. Åtminstone i vissa lägen.En stor del av Sveriges befolkning bröt upp från jorden de kände, utan återvändo, för mindre än tvåhundra år sen. Och vikingarna, de norska vikingarna! Som koloniserade Färöarna, Orkneyöarna, Shetlandsöarna, Island, Grönland och fortsatte ända till Nordamerika!Jag har en storslagen inre bild av hur dessa modiga vikingar gav sig ut från norska kusten, ut över ett okänt hav, utan att ens veta om det fanns något där ute. Men fullt så filmiskt var det nog inte på riktigt att fara från Norge till Island, inte ens för de första pionjärerna. Island lär ha upptäckts av misstag. En norrman vid namn Nadodd sägs ha seglat vilse när han skulle ta sig från Norge till Färöarna på åttahundratalet och hamnade i stället mycket längre åt nordväst.Nadodd följdes av andra, av familjer och hushåll som hade tröttnat på att lyda under det framväxande norska kungaväldet, eller behövde mark att bruka, eller ville ha mer mark fast de kanske inte behövde det. Färden mellan Norge och Island tog som snabbast tre dygn, så några marsfärder var det knappast frågan om. Snart uppstod två tämligen väl trafikerade trader: eyalei∂, ”övägen” och ”úthafslei∂”, havsvägen. Övägen gick från Norge via Shetland eller Orkney, vidare till Färöarna och så till Island. Havsvägen gick som namnet antyder rakt ut över havet.I dag finns liknande leder i luftrummet. De transatlantiska luftlederna mellan Europa och USA är rena motorvägarna med tät flygtrafik. Och SpaceX grundare Elon Musk målar upp bilder av en liknande tät skytteltrafik så småningom mellan jorden och Mars.I hans planer ingår ett enormt rymdskepp som kan ta hundra personer åt gången, ett slags rymdens Amerikabåt om man så vill. Och redan 2024 är det alltså tänkt att en första mindre besättning rymdvikingar ger sig av till Mars – inte av misstag som när Nadodd råkade hitta Island, de har en färdplan. Och de kommer inte att upptäcka en plats som vi inte redan har sett i teleskop och via satelliter. Men att stanna kvar här på jorden är kanske då inte längre ett alternativ.Maria Küchen, författare och kulturskribent

Happy Sunday! Welcome to Heal Squad's The Sunday Set Up. Life lessons to help you start the week.This week, we talk about the labels we place on ourselves, and the ones the world places on us. Do they help us better understand who we are... or do they quietly become excuses that keep us from becoming who we're capable of being? We talk about why it's so easy to embrace an identity, whether it's a diagnosis, a setback, or a story we've been telling ourselves for years, and how those labels can sometimes become prisons instead of pathways. We talk about the power of choosing how we respond rather than allowing a label to define what's possible. From living with a lifelong medical condition without letting it become an excuse, to discovering how years of emotional weight can literally show up in the body.  Plus, a Sunday Set Up bonus! We talk about Star Trek, the return of swashbuckling, Greek islands, miracle churches, novelty ice cream, jazz brunches, the healing power of a good car scream, and the need to rebrand VictimCon. This week, ask yourself: What labels have I accepted about myself? Are they helping me grow... or are they quietly convincing me that I can't? Because your circumstances may shape your story, but they never have to write the ending. Have a great week! We'll talk Shawtly.

SPEAKERS Speaker 2, Teddy Nappen, Evan Nappen Evan Nappen 00:18 I’m Evan Nappen. Teddy Nappen 00:19 and I’m Teddy Nappen. Evan Nappen 00:21 And welcome to Gun Lawyer. So, Teddy, I think you have a very interesting news bit to tell us about, and I have some very interesting thoughts about it. Go right ahead. Teddy Nappen 00:36 Well, first I want to say, Dad, if you’re just scrolling through, I love the random trailers that just pop up. Apparently, they’re making a Jimmy Stewart biopic. Evan Nappen 00:48 Well, Jimmy Stewart was a great man. Teddy Nappen 00:50 But here’s the deal. They’re focusing on his military career, where he was a combat pilot. Evan Nappen 00:56 He was a hero. He was a bona fide hero, and he served his country tremendously. I have nothing but respect for Jimmy Stewart. Teddy Nappen 01:12 I was pulling it up. He flew 20 missions in Europe, and he reached the rank of Colonel. He was a World War Two pilot commander, combat pilot. Evan Nappen 01:22 And this was in the middle of his movie career. He left. Page – 2 – of 13 Evan Nappen 01:26 He left his movie career to fight for America. Let that sink in. I mean, do you think these selfish movie stars, self-centered, would even think of doing that? Even think of doing that today? Please. At least not the overwhelming majority. Maybe there’d be a few that are out there that actually would consider such a thing. But good grief. Talk about old Hollywood and new Hollywood. Jeez. Teddy Nappen 01:26 Yeah. Teddy Nappen 01:57 I will say. I would have. This is no dig against Jimmy Stewart because it’s one of those I would have wanted if they’re gonna do any of the actors that served. I would love for them to do Lee Marvin. His whole story. Evan Nappen 02:10 Oh, Lee Marvin was great, too. Teddy Nappen 02:13 Where he has the craziest career, too. He was a scout sniper, 21 amphibious assaults, horribly injured and shot up. Evan Nappen 02:23 Yeah, they could just do a series, like a mini series of actors who were the real deal. That played tough guys, but were actually the real deal. You know, Charles Bronson was. You had the guy, Christopher Lee. Holy crap, Christopher! Teddy Nappen 02:44 Oh yeah, Christopher Lee. He was Wiki page. Evan Nappen 02:51 I mean, Christopher Lee was advising on the movie and saying that’s not how a knife sounds when you jam it into somebody. You don’t have the sound right on that. That’s not how it goes. It’s not what the sound the person makes. It’s not the sound the knife makes. I mean, that’s some pretty detailed knowledge right there. Teddy Nappen 03:07 If you’re ever bored, just click on the random page on his bio, and it gets crazier and crazier. Like, witness the last guillotining. Evan Nappen 03:18 I know. The guy’s amazing. Yeah, and of course, there’s always Audie Murphy, of course. Teddy Nappen 03:25 Yeah, of course. Page – 3 – of 13 Evan Nappen 03:26 Audie Murphy played himself in “To Hell and Back”. Audie Murphy is amazing, and he would be like one of the last guys if you looked at him to think that he’s one of the most decorated soldiers of the war. But he was also amazing, and you know, he made lots of other movies, too. Even though he’s most famous for “To Hell and Back”, but he did a lot of westerns and other things. Teddy Nappen 03:52 I remember one of the underrated ones. I think it was like “The Duel at Silver Creek”. There’s moments where he’s actually like, he plays an anti-hero type where he’s like. Evan Nappen 04:03 Yeah, a bastard, frankly. A son of a bitch. Teddy Nappen 04:05 He plays like a. Evan Nappen 04:06 Yeah he’s good. Teddy Nappen 04:07 Yeah. Evan Nappen 04:08 Not what you think of Audie Murphy. Teddy Nappen 04:09 Right. He plays like the tough guy. It is very interesting that character but. Evan Nappen 04:14 Yeah, yeah. And then he ended up dying in a plane crash because the pilot shouldn’t have been flying apparently, and you know, it’s a shame that we lost him. But yeah, he was great, and I mean he came from really, really humble beginnings. I mean dirt poor, crazy beginnings there for him. We’ve many of the great Hollywood actors who served their country really admirably. I mean even Scotty (James Montgomery Doohan), you know, from Star Trek. He was also a defender. Teddy Nappen 04:17 What was he in? Evan Nappen 05:03 Oh, he was military. I don’t remember exactly his background, but he was in some tough situations. He was known. Teddy Nappen 05:08 Page – 4 – of 13 Well, he was miracle worker. Evan Nappen 05:10 There’s so many of those guys, and I have a hard time trying to think of any modern actor that can maybe give that credibility to. I don’t know. Can’t think of any at all. Teddy Nappen 05:24 Unfortunately, I’m drawing a heavy blank because. Oh wait, no, no, no. Adam Driver. Adam Driver. I believe he’s the guy that played Kylo Ren. He did. I believe he was in the Marines. But he was a veteran. So, but anyways, one thing I will say as we were reviewing these stories, I love how the Attorney General has their own YouTube and they were just like streaming alerts and announcements. “Attorney General Davenport Files Civil Complaint Against Pennsylvania Gun Show Owner for Endangering Public Safety” (https://www.njoag.gov/attorney-general-davenport-files-civil-complaint-against-pennsylvania-gun-show-owner-for-endangering-public-safety/) So, that was what came up with the ad for Jimmy Stewart, and then there was this. Evan Nappen 06:08 Right. Showing a pretty good contrast. So, Davenport has filed this complaint against the Pennsylvania gun show owner for “endangering public safety”. They filed because they’re abusing the civil lawsuit. You know, this is one of the anti-Second Amendment ploys of trying to litigate the Second Amendment out of existence. And so, what they’ve done here is they’ve gone after Jordan Vinroe of JSD Supply and Eagle Shows. So, if any of you have ever gone to the great Pennsylvania gun shows, you know, they’re really good. Because first of all there aren’t any gun shows of any kind, really, in New Jersey. There’s some militaria shows, but there’s no gun shows. But Pennsylvania is, if you’re in New Jersey and you want to hit a really great normal type gun show, you go to Pennsylvania. And some of the largest, best shows are put on by this promoter. Teddy Nappen 07:24 The one that comes to mind, the Bloomsburg gun show. I think that was one we had gone to. Teddy Nappen 07:29 Yeah, Eastern Gun X. Eastern Gun X. Evan Nappen 07:29 Well, they have a whole series of shows. I believe they actually do some of the largest shows in Eastern Pennsylvania. Evan Nappen 07:30 So, they do some of these 1000 table, 2000 table, these really huge shows. And what happened is they’re going after him, claiming he is intentionally and unlawfully selling to New Jersey residents kits and parts to make ghost guns. Untraceable firearms that are illegal in New Jersey. So, what is this really? This really is a pretext to go after gun shows. This isn’t really about the ghost guns. That’s just their vehicle. This is really about trying to stop gun shows. If you go after gun show promoters, this becomes the idea of civilly litigating out of, essentially out of existence. If they can do it, they’d love to Page – 5 – of 13 do it. Gun shows. So, we really have not just a violation of the Second Amendment, where what’s going on in Pennsylvania is completely lawful in Pennsylvania. Ghost guns are the pejorative term for simply a privately-made firearm. Americans have been making their own guns since before we were even officially a country. So, private firearms are not the boogeyman. But, of course, they give it the boogeyman name of “ghost guns” and then claim they’re untraceable. Evan Nappen 09:14 Well, you know what? You tell me what firearm tracing has actually done to fight crime. Virtually nothing. It’s a lie that is perpetrated to give them a vehicle to make it look like they’re doing something about crime, which isn’t it, but more so to continue the agenda of oppression of Second Amendment rights. And here it is an attack on gun shows. That’s really what’s going on here. It’s not, you know, ghost guns, most gun. It ghost guns. Come on. First of all, anyone can build a gun with or without parts that you buy at a show anywhere. You can build a gun with pipes that you buy at Home Depot. Are we going to go after Home Depot because you can make slam bang shotguns easily, as we taught in the Philippines to do? Americans did that. You can. Evan Nappen 10:20 You know, “American Guerrilla in the Philippines”, a famous book, movie, etc. What do you think they made? Slam bang shotguns. You take two pieces of pipe. One pipe fits in the other. On the end cap of the larger pipe, you have a nail with the point facing down the pipe. The other one slides in it like a trombone. You put a 12 gauge shell in there, and you slam it down. And bang, off it goes. It’s called a slam bang shotgun. Sometimes called four winds shotgun. Teddy Nappen 10:55 Didn’t you? Evan Nappen 10:58 Yeah, I mean this is, and this is even in the Frankfurt Arsenal, the famous “Black Books”. They’re very easy. Evan Nappen 11:06 So, yeah, making a gun. They make guns in jails. They can make a gun. You can make them. So, this whole thing about privately made firearms and all is just a load of crap. Now, Jersey has banned “ghost guns” in a multiple ways. They talk about “unserialized firearms”. They talk about “manufacture of firearms”. They have different laws that address each of these things. All putting it under this category. And yet, under federal law, it’s not a problem to make your own firearm. Federal law even has regulations for if dealers get a privately made firearm, how to handle it and be able to actually lawfully sell it. They need to then take certain steps. We don’t have to get into that now. But it’s not a problem under federal law. It is a New Jersey, in this case, law that they’re attempting to use as a vehicle to bring the civil action against Pennsylvania. Something jurisdictioned in Pennsylvania, by claiming, oh well, you’re unlawfully selling to New Jersey residents. Teddy Nappen 11:06 Poor man’s James Bond? Page – 6 – of 13 Evan Nappen 12:23 Well, I’ll tell you what. How about we take a look at marijuana sales in New Jersey? Do Pennsylvania residents come into New Jersey and ever buy marijuana? Look, marijuana is unlawful for recreational use in Pennsylvania, and it’s federally prohibited. It’s still a federal controlled, dangerous substance. So, New Jersey acts to aid and abet and facilitate one of the largest unlawful drug distributions in the country. Whereas privately made firearms are not a federal prohibition. Not a federal prohibition. Should Pennsylvania sue New Jersey because of somehow Pennsylvania residents buying weed in New Jersey being facilitated by New Jersey? I mean, this is what they’re attempting to do. And yet here, not only is it not a violation of federal law, but it is really an attack on Second Amendment rights. And let me tell you that. Go ahead., Teddy. Teddy Nappen 13:30 I will also point out in the article. This is where the little trick is. If anyone ever listens to these people, they always do this trick where they start with a false premise when making their argument. “Ghost guns are frequently recovered at crime sites in New Jersey. Recent reports suggest that the number of ghost guns recovered in crime scenes increased eightfold between 2019 and 2022 — from 55 in 2019 to 433 in 2022.” Pause right there. I wonder. What happened around that time period where it caused people to want to have their own privately-made firearms and want to maybe 3D print and make their own? I wonder what little factor would have considered that. Secondly, all right, now show me the data of the amount of firearms recovered generally in crimes, and give me the percentage breakdown. Oh, it’s probably in the minuscule amount of percentages of firearms seized in New Jersey for crimes. Huh? I wonder. So, this isn’t that much of an epidemic, but we can’t show that, obviously. We won’t show that data. They just list off guns seized. Evan Nappen 14:43 Teddy, we are in a new day and age because of President Trump. And one of the things that President Trump did is actually create, through the Justice Department. They actually created in the Civil Rights Division of the U.S. Justice Department, the Second Amendment Section. Now let me tell you what the Second Amendment Section of the Civil Rights Division of the Federal Government Department of Justice. Let me tell you right from their website. (https://www.justice.gov/crt/second-amendment-section) The Second, Fourth, and 14th Amendments, the Police Patterned or Practice Act, and Executive Order 14206 protecting the Second Amendment rights, secure the natural firearm rights of law-abiding citizens, and ensure that such rights to keep and bear arms will not be infringed. The mission of the Second Amendment Section is to ensure that law-abiding citizens may responsibly possess, carry, and use firearms. The Second Amendment Section will work diligently to investigate law enforcement agencies that engage in a pattern or practice of infringing on law-abiding citizens’ Second Amendment rights. As well as be proactive in searching for litigation opportunities to secure such rights. Evan Nappen 16:19 The Second Amendment Section will also seek opportunities to advance a broad interpretation of the Second Amendment via statements of interest, motions to intervene, amicus briefs, and original lawsuits where applicable on behalf of Americans across the country. All attorneys within the Second Page – 7 – of 13 Amendment Section will advocate with zeal on behalf of the United States of America in furtherance of all objectives as tasked. And there, right at the website, at the Civil Rights Division, U.S. Department of Justice, the Second Amendment Section. You can go right online to that. We’ll have a link in the transcript. It says Section Information. Acting Chief Barry Arrington. “Report a civil rights violation.” So, listeners, if you see or hear or know of any civil rights violations on the Second Amendment, report them. Report them to the Federal Department of Justice. Evan Nappen 17:28 I think this is something that the DOJ should consider going on in New Jersey. Where you actually are seeing an effort to go after gun shows, which is our freedom of association, which is our ability. You know, if you can’t buy guns, then you’re not going to be able to possess and carry something you cannot obtain. Second, ghost guns are not a violation of federal law. Third, this is talking about interstate issues. This is New Jersey and Pennsylvania. What could be more squarely within federal jurisdiction than one state going after activities in another state because the state that is going after them has laws that infringe on the Second Amendment and trying to enforce it in another jurisdiction via this mechanism of being able to abuse civil laws. So, there is potentially a solution here. And not only just about what New Jersey is doing here, but what New Jersey does across the board in so many ways of oppressing our Second Amendment rights. Evan Nappen 18:58 Now, this Second Amendment Section has done a number of things already. They sued California to halt the Glock ban. They sued Virginia over their unconstitutional weapons ban, assault firearm so-called ban. They sued them. They opened an investigation, by the way, into Philadelphia Police Department’s unconstitutional permit revocation process. They’ve sued Colorado for their ban on so-called assault firearms and magazines. They sued the District of Columbia for their ban, and they’ve gone after the Virgin Islands Police Department for unconstitutional practices in effective denials of permits. That’s just a sampling of what the Civil Rights Division of the U.S. Justice Department is doing in the Second Amendment Section, and it’s time for New Jersey to be investigated. Because this has gone on for far too long in New Jersey. Our Second Amendment rights being trampled by New Jersey trying to do everything in its power to oppress Second Amendment rights. So, check it out, folks, and you will see that this is what happens when we say elections have consequences. Because this goes back to President Trump putting out his Executive Order, and you also have the Attorney General putting forward that they have their Second Amendment task force and setting up the Civil Rights Division. So, we can change how business is done. Evan Nappen 20:52 Because prior to this, the Government, even the federal Government, took at best a neutral position, but normally there was no infringement that was too much as far as federal enforcement. No problem. Turned the other, you know, turned away from it. Couldn’t care less. Those are no longer the days today, and this is where a wake-up call needs to come out on our Second Amendment rights. Let me tell you. Go ahead, Teddy. Yeah. Teddy Nappen 21:32 Page – 8 – of 13 Well, I was going to say. I was able to pull up Everytown’s research. (https://everytownresearch.org/report/gun-trafficking-crime-guns-new-jersey-data/) In 2023, New Jersey’s law enforcement seized 4,619 guns. So, going off of the data that the A.G. put out, that’s 9% of those firearms were “ghost guns”. Nine percent. It’s even less from those numbers. It is the level of insanity that these individuals pull. They’re just making a boogeyman out of something. That’s why. Evan Nappen 22:06 They’re the boogeyman and a pretext to try to assert their agenda. It’s really what we’re talking about here. Absolutely. Well, let me tell you about our good friends at WeShoot. WeShoot is an indoor range in Lakewood where Teddy and I both shoot. We love WeShoot, and so will you. They have the top trainers for New Jersey. They have the full array from novice to advanced. They have some just great training programs. You can get your CCARE certification there. That’s what you need in order to get your New Jersey carry. They offer CCARE courses. They also offer the ability to get non-resident permits in other states. So, if you travel, you can take care of that through WeShoot. WeShoot is a great resource. It’s a resource that we’re very lucky to have. It’s harder and harder to find places to shoot, and without places to shoot, you can’t do too much with your guns. And WeShoot is there for you. Take advantage of it. Evan Nappen 23:25 It’s a wonderful place. They’ve got a great pro shop. Great people, super nice, wonderful folks. They will bend over backwards to help you, and I’ve seen it firsthand. They’ve helped so many people to improve their skills, to learn about firearms, to learn the right way, proper way, how to be safe, how to be secure, and make sure that everything is done correctly. So that you don’t end up being a GOFU. So, check out WeShoot at weshootusa.com. That’s their website, weshootusa.com. You’ll be glad you did. Beautiful photography.

Easily accessible right off the Garden State Parkway. You can do it. Go over there, and you’ll say, “Wow, why didn’t I come here sooner? That’s weshootusa.com. Evan Nappen 24:44 Let me also shamelessly promote my book, New Jersey Gun Law. It is the Bible of Jersey Gun Law. You don’t want to be a GOFU. You need the book. It’s 120 topics, all question and answer. It’ll help guide you safely through the matrix of insanity called New Jersey gun laws, so that you can remain a law-abiding gun owner. That’s my purpose in writing it. You will see why it is the book used by lawyers, judges, State Police Firearms division, and beyond. If anybody who wants to know about New Jersey gun law, they always turn to New Jersey Gun Law by Evan Nappen. And if you want to get your copy, go to evannappen.com, EvanNappen.com. Order a copy, and you’ll have it within days. So, Teddy, what else do you have for us to discuss today? I’m going to toss the ball to you. Teddy Nappen 25:44 Well, as you know, Press Checks are always free. If anyone’s been watching the news or anything or seen all the push from the Left, the thing they keep trying to go back to is they’re trying to address the mail problem. That’s their actual quote from the election groups that they do. Where they’re trying to figure out how do we. Page – 9 – of 13 Evan Nappen 26:11 Is that Post Office mail or as in what is a woman, male? Teddy Nappen 26:16 You know. The white men, particularly, of the they have completely spurred off. One of the things that they’ve run into a foul, is you see this whole push where they try to reach issues, and they’ve gotten very, very quiet on the issue of firearms all of a sudden. Amazing, right? And even though you where you have like the James Talarico who’s still trying to tote gun control, but he’s trying to paint it off like, look, I’m for the Second Amendment. You know, I own a gun. All this. Evan Nappen 26:52 Oh, it’s the I’m for the Second Amendment, but. It’s always the but. Teddy Nappen 26:56 Always, but always, Evan Nappen 26:57 But we should ban guns. I’m for the Second Amendment. Teddy Nappen 27:01 But universal background checks, which will basically create a registry. Evan Nappen 27:07 But we should eliminate gun shows off the face of the planet. But we should ban any gun that’s over 12 inches long and call it an assault firearm. But ban any gun under 12 inches and call it a Saturday night special. Other than that, I’m for the Second Amendment. Teddy Nappen 27:23 Yeah, and you’ve been seeing that. Now you’ve noticed they’ve been losing a lot of ground to their “Democrat Socialists”. They’re just Marxists. If you look at the ideology of what they support, they are Marxists. Just go one to one. They are the same. They can’t dress it up any other way. So, I decided, you know what? Let’s see what’s on their page. What they actually feel about the Second Amendment. Because when it comes to Socialists now, they’ve kind of reached the they don’t know how to feel about firearms. They want to disarm the people because they believe in gun control, but they need arms for the revolution, always. So, it’s the gun owner dilemma for Socialists. Teddy Nappen 28:06 So, I go to their web page and what do I find? (https://www.dsausa.org/blog/the_second_amendment_is_a_threat_to_us_all/) This goes back to 2018, mind you. So, now they’ve gotten very quiet. “The Second Amendment is a threat to us All.” That is the opening title, and they still have it on there. This is their reaction to the Parkland shooting. So, America touts itself as being a meritocracy, and we laugh. But on firearm policy, it is truly need blind. No matter your age, race, gender, creed, or sexual orientation, your inalienable right to life is perfectly alienable to Page – 10 – of 13 keep guns pouring into public and private lives. Okay. Which is why we think the only way to guarantee that we dramatically reduce the acts of violence involving guns is removing guns from society. Pause. Logical fallacy alert, everybody! Ding, ding, ding, ding. Logical fallacy. Reverse Nirvana. If we got rid of all the guns, that would stop the crime. They always try to push that, and we have the oomph. Okay, yeah. Repeal the Second Amendment. That’s going to happen. This is from 2018. Nope, still haven’t done it. But they point to, I don’t know if you remember this guy Carl Rove? Evan Nappen 29:37 Oh yeah, Carl Rove, the pool shooter. Shooting at the pool? Yeah, yeah. After he’s anti-gun, but he uses a gun inappropriately even. Yeah, that guy, Mr. Hypocrite. Teddy Nappen 29:49 Well, they highlight his quote. The only way to guarantee that we drastically reduce acts of violence involving guns is to basically remove them from society. Well, okay then. Then they go through this whole twisted history where they point to the 1970s. NRA stopped being enthusiast group and became a defense industry lobby. Then the new blood came with the Gun Control Act of ’68, which aimed to restrict firearm ownership in response to the fears of the group. I love how they say this. The fears of the Black Panthers. Yes, that’s why the ’68 Gun Control Act was born. That was the only reason. They wanted to disarm the Black Panthers. No other reason of why they tried to push the ’68 Gun Control Act. Dad, do you remember that? What would you say from your view of what was the driver to the ’68 Gun Control Act? Evan Nappen 30:47 Oh my God! You know these people are just amazing, and as you see, they’re conflicted over their own platform. It's crazy, Teddy. Teddy Nappen 31:02 Yeah, and well, they go even crazier. They go through this twisted history of rights. They go through Heller, basically determining you know the rights infringed, and they use Scalia’s answer. In Scalia’s admission, if we repeal the Second Amendment, private citizens could still own guns. The right to do so is granted to them by God or the English, whatever you’d like. Both Brett Stevens and Carl Rover certainly wouldn’t mind. So therefore, we’ve rewritten the Second Amendment. They wrote an amendment. They actually wrote. They wrote their example, the 28th Amendment, Dad. Here we go. The 28th Amendment to the U.S. Constitution that they pushed for. The second article, the amendment of the Constitution of the United States, is hereby repealed. Okay, that gets to that. Two – manufacturing, transportation, importation into or out of any state, territory, or possession of United States delivery therein of a pump action, semi-automatic or automatic firearms is hereby prohibited. Three – article shall be inoperative unless it shall be ratified as the amendment to the Constitution by convention of several states, as provided by the Constitution within 10 years, the date of submission here off to the state by Congress. Well, they want a con con apparently. But just going back to that, banning pump action, semi-automatic and automatic firearms, removing that from the Second Amendment, Dad. Evan Nappen 32:33 Page – 11 – of 13 Okay. Teddy Nappen 32:34 You can have your gun, but they must be manually loaded. Evan Nappen 32:36 Couple things. Number one, the Second Amendment is not our rights. It’s a guarantee of our rights. The rights to exist, whether or not we have a Second Amendment. But the Second Amendment is a guarantee against the Government of infringing on those rights. So, what they’re saying is, we want to revoke the guarantee of your rights and replace it with a lame-ass guarantee that we’re rewriting that won’t do anything except give us the opportunity to walk all over your rights. So, that’s really what they’re saying. But the really interesting thing here is this proposal to repeal the Second Amendment is all the anti-Second Amendment gun rights suppressor folks are going to have left. Evan Nappen 33:23 We are on the path with the Second Amendment having been empowered by Heller, McDonald, and Bruen. And now we have Viramontes and Grant that, in my opinion, are going to absolutely crush assault firearm semi-automatic bans across the country. They are losing ground left and right. There are over 3,000 filed legal actions challenging gun laws. They are on the run. They’re losing, and they know it. The only thing they have left is actually what they’re asking for here, and that is to repeal the Second Amendment. We will never let them repeal the guarantee of our rights, and that’s what we must insist upon. These are our rights, and they’re guaranteed. We want that guarantee enforced. And now that they see the guarantee is finally being enforced, they cannot stand it. They are losing, and they’re going to continue to lose. Teddy Nappen 34:31 I will say, I love the ending to the article where the individual. We are aware non-white and marginalized groups whose rights are routinely violated by the police may view this both as restricting and their ability to protect themselves or causing unwarranted searches and harassments for the criminal justice. We in no way support any measure that would increase the scope and scale of police violence. This provision outlined in amendment would have universal application. So, in other words, don’t worry. This affects everybody. There’s going to be no racial discrimination about enforcing these laws, Dad. Huh? Right. Cut to what was it? John Petrolino’s article where he pulled the data? Evan Nappen 35:19 Yeah. Exactly what we’re dealing with in New Jersey. Where blacks are already more than two to one discriminated against in just permit issuance. So, yeah, we know where this is. It’s just absurd. Teddy Nappen 35:31 Well, they literally go with the “trust me, bro”. It’ll be we’re not racist. We’re just gonna ruin it. We’re gonna screw it over for everybody. Evan Nappen 35:38 Page – 12 – of 13 But keep in mind, this is laughable right now, but it’s actually not. This is going to be the push that we’re going to see. It’s going to be a major push to repeal the Second Amendment. Because it’s all they have left, and that’s what we’re going to see. That and abusing the tort system in any way they can – civil actions. You know, to somehow create these abilities for trying to litigate guns out of existence. That and repealing the Second Amendment. That’s what they’re left with on their game plan. We just need to remain vigilant. Teddy Nappen 36:16 So, bear in mind. I will say, bear in mind, they still push for red flag in the other articles they’ve had. They still push for all the required measures where you have to get everything registered, and they’re still for limiting, removing ARs and anything they deem unsafe or scary. Evan Nappen 36:39 I hear you, and this is so typical. But we’re winning. That’s what’s important. We’re winning. Except when there’s GOFUs. GOFUs, as you know, are Gun Owner Fuck Ups. That’s where gun owners make big mistakes that cost them, technically, it could cost them their career, their family, their fortunes, their freedom. It’s bad news. So, you want to not be a GOFU. And what we like to do here is talk about GOFUs so that you don’t become one. You get to learn for free what others have paid dearly for. Teddy, what do you think the GOFU is this week? You know. What are we talking about? Teddy Nappen 37:26 Well, for me, the GOFUs are always about “stop talking to the police”. Evan Nappen 37:34 Oh my G-d. Stop talking to the police! Like, you know, we talk about basics. It is so basic. Shut up. You know you have a right to remain silent. Now, whether or not you have the ability to, I guess, becomes another question. But you have the right, and you need to stand on your right. You need to ask for your attorney and remain silent. You need to stand on your rights. And over and over again, we see clients that blow that and end up making their situation incredibly worse, incredibly worse. Because not only does anything you say can and will be used against you. Anything you say will be twisted against you. The safest, best route every time is standing on your rights. It’s that simple. And let me tell you, folks, if you’re ever read Miranda rights, oh my God, shut the f up! If you are read Miranda rights, sirens should be going off. Fireworks should be shooting. Flags should be waved. Shut up! Anyone who talks after Miranda, I just can’t even understand. They’re warning you. They’re telling you. Oh, you just wave your right. Oh, you’ll just talk to them. What are those silly rights they’re telling me about Evan Nappen 39:04 I’ll tell you one of the problems is – television. Television has conditioned many Americans to giving up their rights. Oh, I’ll just talk to them. I’ll just explain it. I’ll just yak away. And you know what? You end up burying yourself. Over and over and over again. I see it. I cannot believe it. If you are ever across one of those metal tables, being interrogated by police, and you’re talking, you are the world’s biggest GOFU. That should never happen. If you’ve been read Miranda, that talking across that table that should not be happening. If you let that happen, you’re a fool. You are absolutely a fool. I can’t make it any clearer. Page – 13 – of 13 Evan Nappen 39:55 It reminds me of Jan Davis. I don’t know if you know about her. (https://www.cbsnews.com/news/parachutist-plunges-to-death/) She was part of a movement to allow the ability to try to legalize base jumping at national parks. At Yosemite, she jumped off of El Capitan. Now, she was a pretty experienced jumper, and she did this as a protest. She was wearing criminal stripes outfit. You know the classic black and white stripes of the classic prison outfit, right? And it was to make a statement, of course. But it’s really a statement here because she jumped off El Capitan, El Capitan, and it was in 1999 as a protest against the ban. She was trying to make a statement that this is safe and should be allowed. She jumped, and ended up going splat. That’s right. Her parachute didn’t open. She couldn’t get it opened, unfortunately. My understanding is she had used some other equipment instead of her own. She didn’t know where the pull was on this particular one, and unfortunately, she ended up just going splat. Evan Nappen 40:19 To me, Jan Davis jumping off El Capitan there is what happens when you are read Miranda and talk. You ended up in a big splat like Jan Davis. That’s what you do. And keep in mind, she was wearing that prisoner outfit when it happened. So, folks, stand on your rights. Don’t be a good a GOFU. Don’t end up splattering yourself on the gun rights oppression and insane matrix of New Jersey gun laws. Should you ever be put in that situation – shut up!

Gea será la última invitada de Star Trek Replay. Una Replayer de las que sigue el podcast antes de ver los capítulos, que participa en el canal de Telegram y que viene a las quedadas. Así que no se nos ocurre una mejor manera de acabar los episodios de invitado del podcast. Junto a ella, y a partir del minuto 48, comentamos ‘Emergence', episodio de holocubierta, pero donde mezclan tantos conceptos, incluido la maternidad de la propia Enterprise, que acaba siendo una fumada galáctica.

Originally recorded 20 July, 2025 in Oxford, England, UKOn this very special surprise episode, we're opening up the WHM Vault to release another recording from last year's residency at the Oxford Comedy Festival. For that show, we covered the infamous Star Trek: The Next Generation episode, "Sub Rosa," where, yes, Dr. Crusher repeatedly has sex with a ghost (kind of)! We've also got the Enterprise using the transporter to dig up a coffin, a haunted candle, a colony on a planet that modeled itself after Scotland, Picard being bored at a funeral, and so much more! Come hang out in Vegas with us this summer as we do a three-night stand at ST:LV to celebrate 60 years of Star Trek and 10 years of The Nexus!

The final frontier meets a fresh box of cards. Recorded live from the HeroesCon 2026 floor, Jamie Ray is joined by his best bud Kirk (yes, really) to crack open a box of Star Trek Connections from Rittenhouse Archives 2026 and see what the pack gods deliver. Autographs, inserts, chase cards, and the occasional groan of a triple — it's all here. Two fans, one box, and a whole lot of "oh come ON" and "no WAY." Less a countdown this time and more a celebration of the hunt, because half the fun of collecting is who's sitting next to you when you pull the good stuff.These might not be the rarest, they might not be the most valuable — but they're the ones WE pulled. Boldly going, one pack at a time.#FaveFiveFromFans #FFFF #StarTrek #StarTrekConnections #RittenhouseArchives #TradingCards #CardUnboxing #HeroesCon #HeroesCon2026 #TrekCollectibles #StarTrekCards #BoxBreak #PlasticMicrophoneStudios #Trekkie #CollectorLife #NerdPodcast #startrek #scifi #trekkie #startrektos #spock #startrektng #startrekdiscovery #startrekvoyager #startrekthenextgeneration #starfleet #startrekfan #startrekpicard #startrekenterprise #starwars #captainkirk #startrekds #enterprise #startrekdeepspacenine #space #startrektheoriginalseries #picard #williamshatner #sciencefiction #startrekkers #startrekmemes #trekker #cosplay #leonardnimoy #livelongandprosper #startrekcosplay

Matt and Sean talk about the possession horror hiding inside Star Trek TOS Season 3, Episode 18, "The Lights of Zetar." An alien energy takes over Lieutenant Mira Romaine, and the creepy voice, the floating body, and the "you can't have her back, she's ours" menace feel pulled straight from a 1960s Hammer horror film. So is this secretly one of Star Trek's scariest hours? Or does the show waste a great idea by burying the reveal for 40 minutes?Chapters:00:00: Intro02:30: Episode Description02:58: This time in History06:30: Today's Episode DiscussionWatch on YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LgsPqnDU9ngSupport the show directly: https://trekintime.show/join/Audio version of the podcast: https://www.trekintime.showYouTube version of the podcast: https://www.youtube.com/@TrekinTimeGet in touch: https://trekintime.show/contact/Follow us on: Mastodon - https://mastodon.social/@mattferrell Bluesky - https://bsky.app/profile/mattferrell.bsky.social Undecided with Matt Ferrell: https://www.youtube.com/@undecidedtechnology Hosted on Acast.

They say the third time's the charm, and if you're Star Trek, the third time is all about the charm. The studio may have cut the budget and schedule to cash in on the success of "Star Trek II,", but when you have a cast that has worked together for decades - and a director who is part of that cast - the characters can't help but come through, especially when they are all on a mission of friendship. Spock may have died in "Star Trek II," but the gods of retconning were having none of it, and so the crew of the Enterprise had to suit up in their civvies, steal their old ship in a sequence that stands among the best of the franchise, and go on a search… for Spock! Of course, with Christopher Lloyd and John Larroquette as Klingons, they might as well have called it “the search for sitcom actors on hiatus”… and yet, weirdly, it works. There's this accepted wisdom that the odd numbered treks are the worst, but revisiting this movie after many years, Paul, Javi, and the always-logical Producer Brad found it to be an absolute delight, a feast of wonderful character moments, awesome new ships (lookin' good, Excelsior, and how you doin' you sexy Bird of Prey?) and long-awaited franchise payoffs wrapped in a TV-movie like execution that strains to match the humor and emotion on display. Star Trek III may be known to many as the movie where Paramount's cost-cutting led to the recasting of Kirstie Alley, but to the Multiplex Overthruster gang, it is a warm and comforting bowl of Fal-tor-pan, served up with a hefty dose of humor and the indefatigable camaraderie of a cast so tight that, together, they can overcome any obstacle… even when that obstacle is the search for more profit!Show Notes:US Theatrical release date: June 1, 1984US Weekend Box Office June 1, 1984US Weekend Box Office June 15, 1984US 1984 Top Grossing MoviesAFI Catalog Entry for "Star Trek III"Roger Ebert's "Star Trek III" reviewNYT "Star Trek III" reviewVonda N.

Teil 3 von TaDs Vierteiler zum 60. Star-Trek-Jubiläum. Diesmal knöpfen sich Simon & Sebastian auf ihrer Rückwärtsreise durch die Zeit gleich zwei Jahrzehnte vor: Die 1970er & 1980er. Während Star Trek nach der Originalserie im Dornröschenschlaf lag, von einem Zeichentrick-Intermezzo abgesehen, wuchs im analogen Raum das bis dato größte Fandom, das Conventions, Fanzines und Riesenhunger auf mehr Content entwickelte. Dieser wurde gestillt von Roddenberry-PR, Kinofilmen und gegen Ende des Folgejahrzehnts von einer neuen Serie, die eine möglicherweise konservative Utopie entwarf.

THIS VOYAGE, the Treksperts continue their all-new 60 For 60 series by beaming aboard "Charlie X," one of TOS proto episodes. Set phasers to fun. Only on Inglorious Treksperts as our 60 for 60 countdown continues. Hosts: MARK A. ALTMAN (showrunner, Pandora; author, The Fifty-Year Mission) | DAREN DOCHTERMAN (Associate Producer, Star Trek: The Motion Picture — Director's Edition) | ASHLEY E. MILLER (screenwriter, Thor, X-Men: First Class; showrunner, DOTA: Dragon's Blood)

If you’ve watched Star Trek, you’ve probably had your share of “I know that person” moments, when it comes to guest stars. So let us consider Ricardo Montalbån, long before he was Khan in Star Trek’s “Space Seed” episode, or the same character in the best of all Trek movies, “Star Trek II, The Wrath of Khan”. Ricardo had a career in MGM musicals, though not primarily as a singer. Here is one, about the meta of making a movie that’s not too dissimilar from the movie we’re watching. Shelly Brisbin with Philip Michaels, Micheline Maynard, Nathan Alderman and David J. Loehr.

Episode 548 Nick the Rat is back, rambling through a chaotic Wednesday night filled with Magic: The Gathering gripes (including that disappointing Star Trek set), second-degree burn updates from an overzealous solo session, and passionate pitches for “dick lotion.” He reviews board game hauls like Talisman and Sons of Anarchy, roasts Christopher Nolan and live-action remakes, then dives into the real weirdness happening in New York: exploding cyclospora parasites in the lettuce and Legionnaires' bacteria in the AC. The main event is a deep, fascinating talk on terminal lucidity — those eerie moments when people with advanced dementia, strokes, or comas suddenly become fully aware and themselves right before death. Nick explores real cases, scientific theories, gamma wave brain surges, and what it might mean for consciousness, the soul, and that final “last rally.” Packed with gas blasts, Mystery Man's terrifying Bigfoot terminal-lucidity horror story, Jane Hanoi's horny paranormal news, voicemails, and late-night tangents, this one's equal parts hilarious, gross, and genuinely thought-provoking. #TerminalLucidity #NickTheRatRadio #DyingClarity #FinalRally #MagicTheGathering #StarTrekCards #NYCParasites #LegionnairesDisease #DickLotion #BoardGames #MysteryMan #JaneHanoi #SewerRats #LastWords #Consciousness #sewerchat A paranoid rat discusses conspiracies, secret agendas, and things they don't want you to know — while playing hand-picked underground music.

400 Moo Deng Neil the Seal Comic Con Doug Brode Shelli InterviewDoom Scrolling IntroThe Foos made it to 400 episodes. Joe and Steph celebrate with VMC cocktails, reflect on 8 years of The Foobar Show, and explain why some older episodes have disappeared from platforms over time. No huge blowout, no fake promises — just 400 episodes, a toast, and the usual chaos.The animal kingdom takes over the top of the show: Moo Deng officially turns 2, proving that the internet's favorite pygmy hippo is still the queen of slippery rage, bouncy pork energy, and conservation awareness. Then Neil the Seal finally takes his 2,200-pound chaotic ass back into the ocean after weeks of lounging around Tasmania, blocking roads, flattening signs, and refusing to respect anything vertical.Joe and Steph also explain why the podcast has been spotty lately: life, work, band stuff, Steph's Sunday schedule, and the massive backyard facelift happening because Steph volunteered the house for her brother's baby shower. There's also some Medieval Times talk because sometimes you just need dinner, jousting, horses, and giant beer steins.Geeking Out starts with San Diego Comic-Con: they didn't get badges, of course, but there's still plenty happening outside the convention — themed cafes, Paramount at the Lodge, Hello Kitty, Magic: The Gathering Marvel Super Heroes, Star Trek experiences, and all the badge-free chaos that makes downtown San Diego worth visiting during Comic-Con week.They also hit LA Comic Con tickets going on sale, with the convention returning October 30 through November 1 and guests already including Aaron Paul, Dean Norris, and performers from K-Pop Demon Hunters.Then it's long-awaited movie news: Legend of the White Dragon finally has a release date. The Jason David Frank-led, Power Rangers-adjacent action movie arrives August 28, and the Foos have been waiting years for this one.Avatar fans get love too: Aang: The Last Airbender is coming to Paramount+ on July 25 as a movie featuring an older Aang and the gang trying to save the world again. Joe and Steph revisit why the original Avatar series still holds up as one of the best animated shows ever made — adult themes, perfect pacing, emotional stakes, and Appa trauma included.Christopher Nolan's The Odyssey also enters the chat, with Matt Damon as Odysseus and a massive cast including Tom Holland, Anne Hathaway, Zendaya, Robert Pattinson, Lupita Nyong'o, Charlize Theron, and Jon Bernthal. Practical ships, real locations, giant crowds, IMAX cameras, Greek mythology, and enough complicated storytelling to make Nolan feel right at home.The big feature this week is an interview with returning guest Doug Brode, storyboard/concept artist and author of the Ship saga and the Shelli synthetic crime series. Doug talks about Shelli: R-Evolution, why it is not actually the final Shelli book, how the series has grown, the challenge of writing sequels that stand alone, AI and synthetics, keeping villains understandable, writing in silence, short chapters, and why Shelli's world keeps expanding. He also shares that the first Shelli book is getting a 99-cent Kindle BookBub deal starting July 15.

Episode 230 is here, and this week we're smoking the OZ Family Cigars World Cup 2026 Limited Edition—a cigar with more countries represented than the United Nations.Before the ash even settles, Jerry and Gio recap surviving the second phase of their promotional exams. Then, because no episode ever stays on track, Jerry somehow turns the show into a Jurassic Park documentary by proving he knows an alarming amount about dinosaurs. Naturally, the guys follow that up with their completely unbiased (and probably completely wrong) 2026 World Cup predictions. Gio also drops a special announcement you won't want to miss.Patrol Gone Wild delivers another batch of “you can't make this up” stories featuring a criminal plastic surgeon, another taser deployment that has to be seen to be believed, and some Hall of Fame-level traffic stop trolling.Meanwhile, Caleb's News covers the latest releases from Patina Cigars and Black Label Trading Company, plus a whiskey collaboration that's boldly going where no bourbon has gone before with Star Trek.https://linktr.ee/downtoherfpodcastSupport the show

The core ideaIn a world saturated with division, cancel culture, hostility, and information overload, ILLUSION asks a question few are willing to confront: What if the way we form beliefs is the root of our separation? Blending science, archaeology, and philosophy, ILLUSION challenges one of humanity's deepest assumptions: that unity requires sameness. The film explores the idea that beliefs are not absolute truths we discover, but constructs we inherit, absorb, and defend — shaping how we see reality, ourselves, and each other.At its core, ILLUSION reveals a paradox: the more we insist on one singular truth, the more divided we become. What we've been taught as harmony, the need to think alike to coexist, may itself be the illusion. Instead, the film offers a different vision: reality is not built from one perspective, but from many. Like a complex geometric structure, each viewpoint is a necessary angle of a larger whole. True coexistence doesn't come from agreement, but from the ability to hold multiple perspectives at once.More than a documentary, ILLUSION is a mirror — inviting audiences to question whether their beliefs are truly their own, or patterns inherited from the world around them. Because the future of humanity may not depend on becoming one, but on understanding how we are many.Melissa TittlFounder & CEOMy life mission has been dedicated to producing content that helps forward humanity.

Star Trek II: The Wrath of Khan is regarded as one of the finest entries in the franchise, but even classics continue to evolve right up until release. This week on The Trek Files, Larry Nemecek welcomes authors and historians John and Maria Jose Tenuto to examine a fascinating production document: a March 23, 1982 retake script created just weeks before the film premiered. The pages reveal subtle but important changes to some of the movie's most memorable moments, from Kirk's first encounter with David Marcus to the famous "Remember" scene between Spock and McCoy. How much did Kirk originally know about his son? Who actually performed the mind-meld hand seen in the reshoot? And how did a handful of pickup shots help shape what would become one of Star Trek's greatest films? Along the way, John and Maria Jose pull back the curtain on Nicholas Meyer's production, Harve Bennett's stewardship of the franchise, and the extraordinary efficiency that turned a modestly-budgeted sequel into a science-fiction masterpiece.
