Welcome, welcome, welcome to the Distraction Pieces Podcast with Scroobius Pip!This week Pip is joined by the most excellent actor JAMES NELSON-JOYCE!A delightful session with Pip and James, which will bring you adequately up to speed on all things past and present. A lot of seeds were sewn in a not-far-off Nandos where he bumped into Stephen Graham and Hannah Walters (two names which will create the warming glow you can feel from this episode), and from then on we hear about what followed including playing Stephen's brother in A Thousand Blows, how to play a chemistry read, building the backstory, the internalised shame of holding back the reveal of wanting to be an actor, school monologues, the arts being for everyone, and working as part of an ensemble. Naturally you'll be treated to so much more besides, but all in all you can trust that this one's a great one and your attention towards James's past roles will be rewarded!PIP'S PATREON PAGE if you're of a supporting natureIMDBA THOUSAND BLOWSTHIS CITY IS OURSBLACK MIRROR: PLAYTHINGINSTAGRAMSPEECH DEVELOPMENT WEBSTOREPIP TWITCH • (music stuff)PIP INSTAGRAMPIP TWITTERPIP PATREONPIP IMDBPOD BIBLE Hosted on Acast.

St. Catherine of Siena (1347 - 1380) was a "third order" Dominican, spiritual advisor, and a mystic, but also a nurse, and a kind of free-lance politician. She wrote letters of advice (and criticism) to cardinals, bishops, and royalty. She negotiated peace (or tried to) between warring city states, and - like St. Hildegard before her - she had permission to preach and teach. Her "disciples" and spiritual advisees included women and men, laity and clergy.

What did Biden-era money buy in Iran? According to human rights groups and the exiled Crown Prince, the answer is chilling: 12,000 dead. ☠️ In this episode, Tara exposes the near-total silence from the UN and mainstream media as graphic footage spreads uncensored on X. From collapsing Iranian banks and enforced sanctions to assassination plots, ghost fleets, and the unraveling of Democrat narratives at home, this episode connects the dots between foreign policy, national security, and information warfare. ⚠️
The truth is out—and it's horrific. In this episode, we examine what U.S. taxpayer money funneled to Iran actually delivered: 12,000 dead civilians, mass executions, and a regime openly mowing people down in the streets. ☠️ While the mainstream media barely whispers and the UN remains silent, uncensored footage tells a different story. We break down how decades of appeasement, pallets of cash, and unenforced sanctions empowered one of the most brutal regimes on Earth—and why that era may finally be ending. ⚖️
Allen Farrington is an investor at Axiom BTC Capital and a writer known for sharp, contrarian takes on bitcoin and adjacent topics like bitcoin venture capital, fiat “plumbing,” and stablecoins. With Axiom, Allen uniquely focuses on clients' returns not coming from financial engineering, but from productive deployment of capital to solve real world problems.In this episode, Allen joins The Bitcoin Frontier to share how bitcoin exposes the fiat distortions inside venture capital, why clear lines between saving and investing change founder and limited partner (LP) behavior, and what a bitcoin-first stack means for payments and stablecoins. We dig into local capital allocation on a sound-money standard, free/open-source dynamics and moats, and why lightning + ecash may be the endgame for stablecoins.SUPPORT THE PODCAST: → Subscribe → Leave a review → Share the show with your friends and family → Send us an email: podcast@unchained.com → Learn more about Unchained: https://unchained.com/?utm_source=you... → Book a free call with a bitcoin expert: https://unchained.com/consultation?ut...TIMESTAMPS:0:00 – Intro & disclaimer; setting up VC in a world of finite money2:12 – Bitcoin as “fixing the plumbing”: unwinding fiat distortions vs fantasizing about the end state4:45 – How artificially low rates monetize other assets and push allocators out the risk curve7:28 – Pension funds, liabilities, and why flows into venture decouple from fundamentals9:46 – “Thousand-x or bust”: why LP incentives shape VC behavior (and fund crypto)12:02 – Saving vs investing: why buying bitcoin ≠ venture investing (and Axiom's thesis)16:05 – Local investing on a sound-money standard and higher opportunity costs for founders20:52 – Measuring in bitcoin terms: hurdle rates, returns, and what “outperforming bitcoin” really means27:15 – Trusted third parties are security holes… so where do businesses add value?

Friends, we have been to the future and back! We can't tell you when The War Between the Land and the Sea will air on Disney+ (or what 2026 looks like at that point), but we can go into detail about the first episode of this five-part series. We'll be honest, we didn't want to like it, but it definitely kept our attention by the end of things!
In this episode of SaaS Fuel, host Jeff Mains sits down with Alex Sanfilippo, founder of PodMatch—a platform revolutionizing how podcast guests and hosts connect. Unlike traditional SaaS companies chasing celebrity users and vanity metrics, Alex built PodMatch with a radically different philosophy: serve the community first, prioritize human connection over growth at all costs, and give back to creators rather than extracting maximum value.Alex shares how PodMatch became a category leader without outside funding by focusing on one North Star metric, maintaining an all-paid model with no free trial, and launching the PodValue Initiative—giving over $1 million back to podcasters. This conversation challenges conventional SaaS wisdom and offers a refreshing perspective on building sustainable, values-driven software businesses that actually serve their users.Key Takeaways[4:35] - The Two-Week Validation Moment[6:41] - The Community-First Philosophy[7:22] - Serving the 99%, Not the 1%[10:12] - The Bold All-Paid Model[13:46] - Community as the Last Moat[19:11] - The PodValue Initiative[21:22] - Why Podcasters Quit[24:46] - The One-Year Rule[38:18] - The Profit-First Struggle[40:12] - The Single North Star Metric[44:58] - Messaging Matters MostTweetable Quotes"Everyone wants to chase the same 1,500 shows. We decided to flip that—you all can fight over those shows that don't want you anyway, and we'll just help anybody who needs help." — Alex Sanfilippo"We don't use the word 'users' in our vocabulary. We talk about our community members, the people that we get to serve." — Alex Sanfilippo"When we went all paid, the weirdest thing happened—we saw a huge influx of even more people signing up than were showing up before." — Alex Sanfilippo"Community is one of the last moats in SaaS. Code is not that anymore. But community is huge." — Jeff Mains"If somebody shows up and they're paying, they're gonna take it pretty seriously." — Alex Sanfilippo"We're not here to make a quick buck. We're here to add value."— Alex Sanfilippo"A every yes has to be protected by a thousand nos." — Alex Sanfilippo"I needed to build the muscle of saying no. I went through a whole year where I said no to everything."— Alex SanfilippoSaaS Leadership Lessons1. Serve the Underserved, Not the EliteMost SaaS companies chase the biggest names and enterprise clients. Alex flipped this model by focusing on independent creators—the 99% that everyone else ignores. This created fierce loyalty, organic growth, and a defensible community moat. Lesson: Your competitive advantage might be in serving the market segment everyone else overlooks.2. Quality Over Quantity: The All-Paid ModelBy eliminating free trials and free tiers, PodMatch ensured only serious, committed users joined the platform. This counterintuitive move actually increased signups while dramatically improving platform quality and reducing churn. Lesson: Sometimes adding friction (payment) filters for better customers and creates a...

We all know the drill: January hits, motivation spikes, and we promise ourselves "this is the year." Yet, statistics show that enthusiasm fades rapidly. In this episode, the duo dives deep into the concept of having "A Thousand Excuses," but not a single good reason to neglect your potential. whether it's health, business, or relationships, this discussion is the spark you need to move from intention to action. Key Highlights The Predictable Cycle of Quitting: Alvin outlines the "Gym Cycle." January is packed (no parking spots), but by February or March, the "bowling alley" returns as excuses set in—pain, lack of immediate results, or busyness. This cycle repeats in summer (BBQs) and the holidays, proving we can always find an excuse to wait. Health is the Ultimate Wealth: Out of the 8.0 billion people on this planet, no one can name something more important than health. It isn't just about existing; it is about thriving so you can shovel snow, run up a hill, or play with your grandkids. The "Man in the Mirror" Reality: Brandon emphasizes that while fear (False Evidence Appearing Real) generates excuses, you must look deep in the mirror. There is no magic pill, and nobody is coming to save you. Total responsibility falls on you. The Power of Association: You are the sum total of the 5 people you spend the most time with. If your circle doesn't support your growth, or if they encourage mediocrity, it is nearly impossible to level up. Aim Higher and Start Small: Humans often set goals too low and hit them, rather than aiming high and missing. The key is breaking big goals into fundamentals. You might not be able to do 20 push-ups in a row today, but you can do two sets of ten, or ten sets of two. Just start. Comfort is the Enemy of Growth: If you aren't growing, you are degenerating. Biological cells die and regenerate; time moves forward regardless of your actions. To stay vital, you must embrace the "suck" and get uncomfortable. The "Get To" Mindset: Shift your perspective from "I have to do this" to "I get to do this." Whether it is education or exercise, having the freedom and ability to improve yourself is a privilege, not a chore. Don't Stare at the Past: As Brandon quotes, "It's okay to look at the past, but don't stare." The windshield is larger than the rearview mirror for a reason. Focus on where you are going, not where you have been. Final Thoughts Time is a thief that offers no refunds. As we move into this new year, you have a choice: you can be a victim of change, or you can be a victor who adapts and grows. Stop looking for the perfect time; it doesn't exist. Find your "why," make the process fun, and get comfortable with being uncomfortable. As the team signs off: Peace, love, and a sprinkle of soul.

Send us a text!Henry Ford built an incredible company that he intended to pass down to his sons. And for awhile, that's exactly what he did. But because of excessive wealth taxes, his sons eventually started the Ford Foundation. Today, it is a liberal non profit that has been hijacked by intelligence agencies and grotesque agendas. How did this happen? We'll also discuss Johann Kurtz's book, "Leaving a Legacy." How can we build families and businesses that last for a thousand years?

This week by special listener request, Matt and Joe are delving into Icewind Dale -- perhaps literally, because it involves the iconic character Drizzt Do'Urden, the Drow Ranger. Icewind Dale began simply as a region in Dungeons and Dragons, and then became the title of a series of three novels penned by R. A. Salvatore, with the first published in 1988 and the last in 1990, and then a video game in 2000 set in the region. As such, there is a ton of lore to discuss, including its roots, which begin -- like almost every work in modern fantasy fiction -- back with Tolkien, and its use as a setting in D&D. Join us as we discuss one of the most beloved series in the D&D oeuvre.If you enjoy the show, please support us on Patreon, where you can get these episodes early and ad-free! Hosted on Acast.

[2 Chronicles 1:7]Dr. Soojin Lee
Everything you wanted to know about 1st Century Palestine, but were afraid to ask… The New Testament in Its World: An Introduction to the History, Literature, and Theology of the First Christians By: N. T. Wright and Michael F. Bird Published: 2019 992 Pages Briefly, what is this book about? An deep dive on the New Testament covering (as the subtitle suggests) the history: Second Temple Judaism against a Greco-Roman background; the literature: the New Testament's genesis, structure, authors and audience; and theology: the religious claims of the book, the doctrine, miracles, and contentions. What's the author's angle? Despite me saying that this is a deep dive, it is also something of a sampler for Wright's other, even more expansive books. Also it's important to note that Wright is very much a believing Christian and while the book is exceptionally scholarly, it's also backgrounded by the idea that Jesus Christ is the Messiah who died for the sins of the world and was gloriously resurrected. Who should read this book? This is a long book, and I ended up deciding to read it, rather than listen to it. As such, it honestly took me several months to get through, so you should certainly take that into account. This should not be construed as saying the book is difficult. It's very accessible, and reads easily. I will say that I learned a lot, but I'm not sure that will be true for everyone. Members of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints (LDS) don't generally focus on straight down the line Bible scholarship. To the extent that we do deep scholarship in this area it's in search of parallels between early Christianity and LDS Christianity. (For example in 1 Corinthians 15:29 when Paul mentions baptisms for the dead. Something no major denomination does, other than us.) This is all to say that I think LDS individuals might find this book particularly enjoyable, as being somewhat outside of our normal wheelhouse. Specific thoughts: It's both shocking how much New Testament we have and how little we have of everything else
A few years ago, Trymaine Lee, though fit and only 38, nearly died of a heart attack. When his then five-year-old daughter, Nola, asked her daddy why, he realized that to answer her honestly, he had to confront what almost killed him—the weight of being a Black man in America; of bearing witness, as a journalist, to relentless Black death; and of a family history scarred by enslavement, lynching, the Great Migration, the also insidious racism of the North, and gun violence that stole the lives of two great-uncles, a grandfather, a stepbrother, and two cousins.In this powerful narrative, Lee weaves together three strands: the long and bloody history of African Americans and guns; his work as a chronicler of gun violence, tallying the costs and riches generated by both the legal and illegal gun industries; and his own life story. With unflinching honesty he takes readers on a journey, from almost being caught up in gun violence as a young man, to tracing the legacy of the Middle Passage in Ghana through his ancestors' footsteps, to confronting the challenges of representing his people in an overwhelmingly white and often hostile media world, and most importantly, to celebrating the enduring strength of his family and community.In A Thousand Ways to Die (St. Martin's Press, 2025) Lee answers Nola and all who seek a more just America. He shares the hard truths and complexities of the Black experience, but he also celebrates the beauty and resilience that is Nola's legacy. In this episode we discuss the work of Dana Tenille Weeks.

With unflinching honesty he takes readers on a journey, from almost being caught up in gun violence as a young man, to tracing the legacy of the Middle Passage in Ghana through his ancestors' footsteps, to confronting the challenges of representing his people in an overwhelmingly white and often hostile media world, and most importantly, to celebrating the enduring strength of his family and community.In A Thousand Ways to Die (St. Martin's Press, 2025) Lee answers Nola and all who seek a more just America. He shares the hard truths and complexities of the Black experience, but he also celebrates the beauty and resilience that is Nola's legacy. In this episode we discuss the work of Dana Tenille Weeks. You can hear her talk about the reimagination of future at Episode 22 of her podcast, The Rest of Us. Find Trymaine Lee at his website and on Instagram.

The journey to Badr didn't begin with a battlefield. It began with small moments that tested the companions one by one. Some were told to return, others tried to stay hidden, and lessons were given on the road that shaped the mindset of the entire group. What seemed like a simple march became a series of decisions that revealed what each person carried in their heart. Meanwhile in Makkah, a sudden wave of news moved through the city and forced Quraysh to react. What they chose next set both sides on a path neither could step away from. Ustadh Abdulrahman Hassan explains how these moments built the lead-up to Badr and why they changed the direction of the story. The clash hasn't begun yet, but the turning point is close.
