This week on Thumb War, we revisit Bad Santa (2003) — Terry Zwigoff's filthy, funny, and surprisingly tender Christmas classic. Jason & Rachel dig into the Director's Cut vs the Theatrical version, studio interference, and why Billy Bob Thornton's Willie T. Soke somehow becomes one of the strangest “found family” characters in holiday movie history. Along the way, we celebrate: Bernie Mac & John Ritter's perfect comic chemistry Zwigoff's anti-sentimental worldview Why this movie still works — and why it probably wouldn't get made today A holiday staple in this house. Not safe for work. Definitely not safe for kids. Join our Patreon for ad-free episodes + bonus shows: http://bit.ly/ Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.

Episode 7 Had Us Yelling at the TV | Welcome to Derry Review In this episode of Thumb War, we review Welcome to Derry Episode 7 (2025) — an hour of television that somehow delivers peak Pennywise and peak frustration at the same time. We talk: Why the Pennywise stage performance works so well Andy Muschietti's blink-and-you'll-miss-it organ-grinder cameo The Black Spot fire, emotional shortcuts, and broken horror logic When tragedy feels earned… and when it absolutely doesn't If you're wondering whether Welcome to Derry is sticking the landing — or quietly falling apart — Episode 7 gives us plenty to argue about.

On this Saturday edition, Mike Pesca joins the cast of Nobody Listens to Paula Poundstone to explain the dopamine minefield of modern sports betting. He walks Paula and Adam Felber through the mechanics of the "vig," the absurdity of Cleveland pitchers throwing balls into the dirt to cover prop bets, and the time NBA legend Chauncey Billups unwittingly became a "face card" for a mob-run poker game involving marked contact lenses. They also workshop a betting ad campaign starring John Goodman as a sentient thumb and discuss why catching the mechanical rabbit leads to existential dread for greyhounds and podcasters alike.

Flu shot protects against new variant, Michigan health officials say Cherished tenor Andrea Bocelli brings holiday magic to Detroit Huron homemade houseboat hits hardship; captain calls it quits in the Thumb

In this episode, practitioner Robin Gladstone from Vancouver Island shares a long-term case of a little boy with severe eczema and multiple allergies. Over two years, she used individualised homoeopathy to support his skin, general health and emotions instead of simply suppressing symptoms. The Child's Story The boy's eczema began at a few months old. By age three he had cracked, itchy patches on his scalp, hands, behind his ears, knees and ankles, and he scratched a lot at night. Thumb-sucking made one hand particularly sore. Steroid creams had been used early on, which calmed the rash but didn't change the overall pattern. He was also highly allergic to milk, nuts and coconut and there was a strong family history of asthma and allergies. Seeing the Whole Child Because he was in her preschool class, Robin saw him in daily life: fast, energetic, sweet and often restless in sleep. Even with fevers, he wanted to keep running and playing. In consultation she took a full history from pregnancy onwards: stresses in his mother's life, his temperament, sleep, favourite foods and how he responded to illness. From this picture she narrowed her remedy choice to Pulsatilla or tuberculinum and, after comparing them, chose tuberculinum. LM Remedies and Daily Dosing Robin prescribed tuberculinum in LM potency, starting with LM1 in liquid form, three drops once a day. She warned that itching might briefly worsen as the skin cleared more deeply. Alongside the remedy, she suggested soothing calendula baths and gentle dietary changes, reducing milk rather than banning foods completely. He was a little more itchy for a few days, then his skin began to improve. As he continued to do well, she gradually moved him from LM1 up to LM4 over two years. During one bad barking cough she paused the LM and gave a single 200C dose of the same remedy as a "boost", then restarted the LM afterwards. Building Resilience, Not Just Clearing Eczema Over time, changes went far beyond his skin. His sleep became deeper, tantrums reduced, and he could slow down, focus more in class and stay calmer indoors. His eczema patches shrank and stopped cracking, with many areas healing. His allergies also softened: he could tolerate a little coconut and wheat, later some dairy, and accidental nut exposures caused much milder reactions.  Robin and Mary underline that the aim of this kind of treatment is not just removing one complaint, but strengthening the whole system so a child can cope with everyday exposures and enjoy life more freely.   Subscribe to our YouTube channel and be updated with our latest episodes.

In this episode I give you my top 10 tips for playing acoustic blues. 1. Learn the 12-Bar Blues Form Inside OutThe 12-bar blues is the foundation. Practice it in different keys (E, A, G) until you can play it without thinking. This will make learning songs and improvising far easier.2. Master Shuffle and Swing RhythmsBlues rhythm isn't straight—it's felt. Work on:Shuffle feel (“da-DA, da-DA”)Light swing These grooves make even simple chords sound authentic.3. Use Alternating Bass PatternsA thumbed bass line (with your picking hand thumb) adds depth:Thumb alternates between root and fifthFingers play melody on top This classic delta & country blues technique makes solo performances sound full.4. Start Using the Minor Pentatonic Scale EarlyIt's the essential blues scale. Begin in A minor pentatonic and E minor pentatonic—both fit comfortably on acoustic and match common blues keys.5. Add Blue NotesIncorporate:♭3♭5♭7 These give blues its voice. Practice sliding into them for expression.6. Work on String Bends & VibratoBending on acoustic is harder than on electric, but doing it well makes your playing expressive. Start with:Quarter-step bends (very bluesy!)Slow, controlled vibratoSimple half-step bends on the B and G strings7. Learn a Few TurnaroundsTurnarounds signal the end of the 12-bar form and make your playing sound “finished.” Classic turnarounds in E and A are essential vocabulary for blues players.8. Use Hammer-Ons & Pull-Offs for Acoustic “Snap”Blues on acoustic thrives on percussive articulation. Practice short licks that combine:Open stringsQuick hammer-onsSnappy pull-offs They create that raw delta feel.9. Study “Call and Response”Think like a singer:Play a short melodic “call”Answer with a rhythmic or melodic “response” This makes improvisation sound intentional instead of random.10. Listen and Imitate Blues LegendsAbsorb phrasing, tone, and feel from players such as:Robert JohnsonMississippi John HurtBig Bill BroonzyLightnin' HopkinsEric Clapton (unplugged style)Learning even a few of their licks will deepen your style dramatically.

Jeremy Au outlines why founders must choose a single 10x advantage and commit to it. He explains how products win by being better or faster or cheaper than the status quo and why unfair advantages are required to defend that lead. He also highlights the Southeast Asian invention of the USB thumb drive as a case where a first mover delivered a better experience but still lost when fast followers and scale overtook them. 01:00 Spotify provides 10x better quality: Unlimited access to any song in any order is a better experience than CDs or using Napster or Kazaa. 04:45 Uber creates a 10x faster experience: Seeing when a car will arrive removes waiting uncertainty and feels much faster than waving for taxis or calling for bookings. 06:00 SpaceX wins by being 10x cheaper: The cost of sending one kilogram to space dropped from about 30,000 dollars to about 500 dollars and continues to fall. 09:00 Six unfair advantages that protect a 10x lead: Startups defend their position through first mover advantage, network effects, economies of scale, intellectual property, regulatory protection, and scarce expert teams. These moats determine whether a company can keep its 10x advantage as competitors enter. 14:00 Thumb drive first mover but lost advantage: Henn Tan, founder of Trek 2000 and creator of the USB thumb drive, built a better file transfer experience but lost his lead because patents were not enforced globally, fast followers copied cheaply, and competitors gained scale and network effects.

Spoilers for Welcome to Derry Episode 3! Thumb War returns to Derry, Maine, where the sewers are wet, the ghost children look like Spirit Halloween interns, and the cemetery scene feels one jump scare away from a discount haunted house behind a Home Depot. After two strong episodes, Episode 3 might be our first real stumble of the season. We break down: Did the show blow its horror budget in Episodes 1 & 2? Are these ghost kid vibes spooky or just… sticky? Why does the community meeting scene feel like mid-season Canadian public access TV? Are we in Derry or at Canada's Wonderland Fright Night? Pennywise lore updates (even though he may be on PTO this week) We still love the show, but we also reserve the right to yell at it.

Is this one of the best or worst method books for acoustic fingerstyle guitar? You can learn to play music by simultaneously using a variety of resources including teachers, online resources, and books. Rainer's Acoustic Blues Guitar Picking School, written by Rainer Brunn, is a method book for learning to play solo fingerstyle blues guitar.  The material is generally appropriate for late beginner to intermediate players who want to learn this style.  The material progresses logically from an easy introduction to Travis style/alternating basslines and quickly ramps up to late beginner difficulty.  Text is kept to a minimum, so readers should spend some time analyzing the playing examples.  The entire book is fairly short and concise at 53 pages. The majority of Rainer's Acoustic Blues Guitar Picking School focuses on playing the blues using an alternating bassline, although some examples feature a monotonic bassline.  Each chapter generally features a concise explanation of one or two new concepts (i.e. inner and outer right-hand positions, the “long A” chord shape, hammer-ons, pull-offs, slides, etc.), provides a few playing examples to demonstrate, and finally provides a full 12 or 16 bar blues chorus utilizing the new concepts. My overall impression from going through this book is that it contains valuable information, but it is not as comprehensive as some other books.  You will gain important technical/physical skills to play fingerstyle blues, but there isn't much explanation on how to approach a new blues tune, music theory to help you choose the proper notes while improvising, etc.  Still, some people might prefer the concise text.  My advice would be to work through this book with a teacher or to combine this with another more comprehensive method book.  This book might make a great 2nd or 3rd book in your fingerstyle blues collection.  I got a great workout going through the book, I have immediately begun implementing some of the new ideas and chord shapes into my own playing, and I will be using some of the examples with my students. Chapter by chapter breakdown: Ch. 1: Intro to Travis style/ alt bass in blues keys of E, A, and C.  Intro to syncopation very soon.  If you are new to Travis style, then this will be difficult.  If you have some experience with Travis style, then this will quickly get you sounding bluesy. Ch. 2: Inner and outer RH positions – shifting thumb to pick 4th and 3rd strings while i and m fingers shift to 2nd and 1st strings.  Accompaniment behind a blues tune in D. Ch. 3: “Long A chord” – use pinky to reach 5th fret A note on 1st string.  Introduction of double alternating bass. Ch. 4: Hammer-ons, pull-offs, slides.  Intro to monotonic bass.  Intro to triplets.  Keys of E, G, and D with alt bass.  Intermediate territory. Ch. 5: Shuffle rhythm.  Advanced chord shapes (up the neck) for keys of E, A, D.  This is getting significantly more difficult – too difficult for beginners, in my opinion. Ch. 6: Thumb over the top.  Rag in C – really nice 16-bar tune. Ch. 7: Trickier hammer-ons, pull-offs, and slides over Travis bassline.  Keys of E and A. Ch. 8: Using alternating m and i picking hand fingers.  Lots of cool chromatic melodies. Ch. 9: Accompaniment.  Variations to keep you from playing the same accompaniment pattern over and over. Ch. 10: “Moveable modules” – chordal or interval ideas that can be moved around to fit over different chords/in different keys. Ch. 11: Turnarounds – some good introductory turnarounds to learn and start implementing into your blues playing. Ch. 12: Two blues tunes with discussions/analysis. Videos available online – solid performances of examples that are helpful to view. The book doesn't use the modern percussive techniques used by modern players like Michael Hedges, Don Ross, Andy McKee, Mike Dawes, etc.  No thumb slaps, guitar body percussion, or tapping.

Was it a celebratory thumbs-up gone wrong—or did Jerry just forget which digit does what?Ben Rogers, Jeff “Skin” Wade, Kevin “KT” Turner, and Krystina Ray dissect the footage with surgical comedic precision, questioning everything from arthritis to synapse misfires. KT even drops a philosophical gem: “It is kind of crazy that just with our mental powers we can move our digits. We take that for granted, don't we?”—prompting a spontaneous deep dive into the history of hand gestures, from medieval archery threats to carriage-era peace signs.

Investing can feel overwhelming with all the strategies, opinions, and noise out there. That's why in this episode, I break down eight simple, time-tested rules of thumb that will help you cut through the confusion and make smarter decisions with your money. These aren't rigid formulas—they're practical guidelines to keep you on track whether you're just getting started or fine-tuning your portfolio. From understanding how long it takes your money to double, to calculating your “freedom number,” to knowing whether to prioritize retirement or college savings, these rules will help you create clarity and confidence in your financial journey. Episode Timeline & Highlights [0:00] – Introduction [0:54] – Rule #1: The Rule of 72—how long it takes for your money to double [2:00] – Rule #2: Why you'll only need about 70% of your income in retirement [2:46] – Rule #3: How to calculate your “freedom number” with the 4% rule [3:11] – Rule #4: Safe withdrawal rates in retirement (why I lean conservative) [3:52] – Rule #5: Net worth benchmarks by age and income [4:33] – Rule #6: Asset allocation by age—and why risk tolerance matters more [5:52] – Rule #7: Always take the 401(k) match—it's free money [6:32] – Rule #8: Child's education vs. retirement (and why retirement comes first) Key Takeaways Money Compounds Faster Than You Think – Use the Rule of 72 to visualize long-term growth. Retirement Needs Less Than You Earn Now – Strategic withdrawals and fewer expenses change the math. Put Yourself First – You can borrow for college, but you can't borrow for retirement. Quotables “You can get scholarships for school—but you can't get scholarships for retirement.” “Aim to have your investments double every ten years at a bare minimum.” “Please don't listen to anyone who says you can pull 12% from your portfolio. That's a disaster waiting to happen.” Links & Resources Learn more about BudgetDog Academy: https://budgetdog.com My book, The Roadmap to Financial Freedom: https://budgetdog.com/book Follow me on Instagram: https://instagram.com/budgetdog If this episode helped simplify investing for you, share it with a friend who needs these rules of thumb.
