Show Notes It's a short episode this week as Nina wraps up her research on the history of motocross, bringing us forward to the Xtreme sports era of the 1990s, offering our theory on why it took Japan so long to produce an internationally competitive motocross rider, and considering the connotations Duker Iq's biker lifestyle would have carried for a 90s audience. And next week... the 13th Gundam Fight is about to begin! Please listen to it!

In fitness, no one expects you to start at the hardest version of an exercise. A good trainer shows you the base movement first—then offers a modification to make it easier, and another to make it harder.I talk about why that framework is powerful far beyond the gym—and how it can completely change the way you approach goals, creativity, and personal growth. Instead of quitting because something feels overwhelming, you can scale it. Instead of stagnating when something feels too easy, you can level it up.Whether you're working on your health, your art, your career, or a long-term project, this mindset helps you stay in motion without burning out or giving up.Think of your goals the same way you'd think of an exercise: base version → easier modification → harder progression.That's how real momentum is built.

Lawmakers face more than the usual concerns as they begin a new legislative session. The two issues that kept coming up during the opening day ceremonies were. A popular ingredient is being left out of poke bowls across Oahu. It's one thing to set a goal; it's another thing to work towards it. Casey Lund is live with details on the challenge to keep you "on track" with your fitness goals. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

I've always believed that if you want to make better work, you have to study the process, not just the finished product. In this episode, I share some of my favorite documentaries that explore how art actually gets made—the doubts, the breakthroughs, the obsession, the missteps, and the human cost behind the work.Many of these docs are rooted in filmmaking and animation, but that's exactly why I want your recommendations too—so I can expand beyond my own creative lane and keep learning how great work gets made across disciplines.The documentaries I talk about include: • Megadoc: The Making of Megalopolis • Rivers and Tides • Pencils vs Pixels • Netflix's Stranger Things' docs • The Movies That Made Us • The Kingdom of Dreams and Madness • The Matrix Revisited • Hand Drawn • Overnight — a cautionary tale every creator should seeSome of these are inspiring. Some are sobering. All of them are invaluable if you care about craft, longevity, and understanding what the creative journey really looks like.If you have favorite documentaries about process—filmmaking or otherwise—drop them in the comments. I'm always looking to expand the list.

With the holidays behind us, it's time to get back to creative work on The Arbiters—my original, hand-drawn animated feature.In this vlog, I share where the project is right now: while a dedicated team continues outreach and funding conversations, the core creative team and I are fully focused on what we can control—storyboards, world-building, and a new wave of concept art. And I'll be honest: this was the first time the scope really hit me. That “wow… this is massive” feeling. The moment where you ask yourself, am I crazy for taking this on? Then, like always, you shake it off and keep moving—one step at a time.I also reflect on an idea from Daymond John about being able to distill a brand—or even a person—down to 3–5 words. Nike has “Just Do It.” His was “For Us, By Us.” Mine? I'm exploring eliminating limiting beliefs. I'd love to know: what would yours be? Drop it in the comments.From there, I outline how I'm using patreon.com/philsvitek to help sustain The Arbiters while we're in this long middle stretch—creating momentum, staying transparent, and inviting people into the process.Finally, I connect all of this to something I love about fitness culture: how trainers explain the base version of an exercise, then offer a modification to make it easier—and another to make it harder. It's a powerful framework not just for workouts, but for goals, creativity, and life itself.If you're building something big and feeling the weight of it, this one's for you.

You'll be stuck with only the cloud recording.I'll explain:-Why StreamYard local recordings fail to upload-How disk storage directly affects recording speed and reliability-What happens when your computer runs out of space mid-record-Why you should always check storage before hitting record-How to add disk space requirements to your guest instructionsThis is a simple fix that can save you from losing irreplaceable interviews.

AI doesn't threaten creativity because it imitates. It threatens creativity because it lets us skip the hard part. There's a concept called the Helsinki Bus Station Theory: early in a creative life, everyone's work looks the same. That's not failure—it's the necessary beginning. Originality isn't a leap. It's endurance.What worries me about AI is that it short-circuits that phase. When we offload first drafts, concepts, or style exploration to AI, we step off the bus before our path has time to diverge. The work looks polished—but it isn't ours. This episode isn't anti-AI. It's a warning about skipping discomfort, struggle, and boredom—the very things that forge a creative voice.Originality isn't something you generate. It's a route you survive.

One of the most haunting moments in Nuremberg isn't about the verdict—it's about restraint. In a quiet execution scene, a condemned Nazi breaks down. He panics. He loses control. And the man who helps clean him up before his death is a Jewish guard.This episode isn't an argument against punishment. It's an argument against dehumanization as punishment. After the Holocaust—one of the most heinous crimes in human history—the response at Nuremberg was measured, procedural, and deeply human. Not because the crimes deserved mercy, but because justice loses its legitimacy the moment it becomes barbaric. The defendants were given lawyers, a platform, and the dignity to speak—even when there was real fear they could manipulate public opinion or reframe themselves as martyrs. That risk was taken anyway. Because justice that only exists when it's easy isn't justice—it's control.Even when the sentence was death, it wasn't spectacle. No cheering crowds. No humiliation. No entertainment.That Jewish guard becomes the moral center of the story—not through forgiveness or absolution, but through dignity within necessity. He refuses revenge. He refuses spectacle. He refuses to let evil dictate his own humanity. In a time when punishment is increasingly public, instant, and performative—especially online—Nuremberg asks a harder question than “Who deserves punishment?” It asks: Who do we become when we deliver it?

HAMAS AND THE IMPOSSIBLE RECONSTRUCTION Colleague Peter Berkowitz. Peter Berkowitz argues that Hamas, as a Muslim Brotherhood offshoot, remains committed to Israel's destruction, making peace impossible. He criticizes the "Project Sunrise" reconstruction plan, noting that US-led development is futile without first disarming and deradicalizing Gaza, a task only the IDF can currently achieve given Hamas's refusal to surrender.
