Stop me if you've heard this one before. A podcast host records a dinner conversation with an old friend as an assignment for his therapist. That old friend is a scientist who put his brain in the body of an ape. It's a tale as old as time and a brand new Donny-less episode of City of Supers.Credits:Brendan Connors as Beck Wayward, Waiter, Bobo, and Broderick KochWill Wamser (Letterboxd: dr_fillm) as Ape-Man/ Dr. Dean Koch and Man-Ape "Bossa Antigua" Kevin MacLeod(incompetech.com)Licensed under Creative Commons:By Attribution 4.0 Licensehttp://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0/

Mention Texas and you might picture the Wild West — flat, dusty highways, and tumbleweeds rolling by. But head to Austin, tucked into the Hill Country, and you'll find something different. Right in the heart of the city flows Lady Bird Lake, a stretch of the Colorado River that has become a daily gathering place for runners, paddlers, and rowers alike. On its banks sits a true Austin institution: Texas Rowing Center. For owner Matt Knifton, this place isn't just a business, it's where his story unfolded. His ties to the lake reach back to the 1980s, and over the decades he's become not just an owner, but a steward — someone who has quietly shaped the culture of rowing in Austin, protected access to the water, and ensured that this shoreline remains a starting line for generations to come. In this conversation, we also explore how Matt is thinking about the future — and what thoughtful, sustainable growth looks like for a place so deeply rooted in community. .

Seks kampe samtidig, når Superligaens grundspil skal afgøres. Det bliver en fodboldfest på søndag, når Danmarks bedste fodboldrække skal hakkes over i to. Fire hold spiller om de sidste to pladser i top-seks, og mens det kun matematisk er en mulighed for OB, har FC Nordsjælland, Viborg og FC København alt at spille for. Særligt sidstnævnte, der potentielt misser den sjove del af foråret for første gang under den nye ligastruktur. Hvor stor en krise vil det være for FCK? Hvad er scenarierne egentlig? Vi vender det hele med to af de kommentatorer, der skal være en del af festen på søndag. Vært: Emil Schiønning. Gæster: Fodboldkommentatorerne Andreas Kraul og Arnela Muminovic.
