In this episode of the Underground Lounge, Lou and Spank welcome two of the most unfiltered personalities in the game—Gilbert Arenas and Nick Young (Swaggy P)—and things get wild quick. From the jump, the crew dives headfirst into the NBA's new wave of one-on-one challenges, with Gilbert breaking down how a little trash talk turned Brandon Jennings into the main character of the week. There's talk of million-dollar bags, legacy debates, and why certain hoopers might need to lace up or shut up.But it's not all basketball. The Gran Coramino tequila crew crashes the set, and just like that, Spank's “no drinking” streak is out the window. Toasts are raised, secrets are spilled, and the "F**K IT BUCKET" returns with questions nobody's ready for,including who's banned from the crib and which guests fumbled their VIP pass with body oil or petty theft (yep, it gets that real).Gil opens up about his infamous locker room moment that got him suspended, Nick finally addresses the D'Angelo Russell saga with receipts, and everyone weighs in on why old media should be very, very nervous. Plus: Stephen A. Smith gets the "Coming to America" treatment, and the crew debates what a real one-on-one NBA showdown would look like—with pride and prize money on the line.This episode is loaded with laughs, unfiltered stories, and just enough tequila to make it all a little chaotic. Tap in… if you can handle it.

What kind of futuristic ideas in kitchen gadgetry did the 1960s produce? And how did they advertise these new products? Join Bex to find out. From wall and under counter mounted can openers to bun warmers and toaster ovens, it's all here.

This episode will either make you scratch your head over the idea of owning an avocado colored blender or take you down memory lane with a Salton bun warmer.Resources discussed in this episode:Mid Century Show and Sale in Calgary, AB - April 12, 2025“1960s gadgets & small kitchen appliances made life a little easier” on ClickAmericana.com—Contact Rebecca Scott | Pyrex With Bex: Website: PyrexWithBex.comInstagram: @pyrexwithbex— TranscriptBex Scott: [00:00:02] Hey everybody, it's Bex Scott and welcome to the Pyrex with Bex podcast, where you guessed it, I talk about vintage Pyrex, but also all things vintage housewares. I'll take you on my latest thrifting adventures, talk about reselling, chat with other enthusiasts about their collections, and learn about a bunch of really awesome items from the past. Subscribe now on Apple, Spotify, or wherever you love listening to podcasts so you don't miss a beat. Everybody, this is Bex Scott and you are listening to the Pyrex with Bex podcast. I wanted to start off this episode with a little Value Village thrift store adventure. So I went into town with my husband and our daughter. Of course, she fell asleep on the way in. We were running some errands and we had some time to kill, so I asked Rob, my husband, if we could stop at Value Village and he said sure. So I let him stay in the car with our daughter, and I ran in to do a quick little ten minute run around the store, see if anything good was there. And lately Value Village hasn't been that great. There's been a lot of just broken things or missing pieces to things that I found. Today was a decent day, so there were some pretty beat up Pyrex. There was a Woodland Cinderella set, only three of the dishes, and it was priced at $35. It had some damage on the largest bowl, and I did consider it for a second, but I just couldn't justify paying $35 for that and the condition that it was in. Bex Scott: [00:01:47] I also found a Homestead 403 mixing bowl that had been through years of dishwasher use, and they wanted $15 for it. And another primary set, blue 401. They wanted $6 for it and it was missing a lot of its color. So that was a bit of what I found today. That was a disappointment. I did, however, find six mugs from the Spring Blossom Tabletopware coordinates set. These are the nine ounce mugs that were sold in sets of four, and I found six in this pattern. So I picked them up and they were a great price. I was a bit sad though because I found them, I grabbed them and then I walked down to the other aisle and this little girl looked at me and I gave her a smile. I thought she was just being friendly, but then I heard her say, hey mom, I just saw somebody take those green flower mugs. And the mom said, don't worry, we left them there for a reason. And I felt so bad because this little girl obviously wanted to take these mugs home, but the mom was set on her not having them for some reason, probably because they didn't need six vintage mugs in their house for their kids to use. But I hope she knows that they're going to a good home. Bex Scott: [00:03:13] I also found this amazing enamel fondue set in like a mustardy color with little flowers all over it, and it came with, I think it was six melamine divided plates and four forks with different colored plastic handles. That whole set is going to be in an upcoming mid-century modern show that I have a booth at in Calgary. It is my very first show that I'm ever doing. I have a ten by ten booth, three tables, so I'm excited to be thrifting to find some pieces that I can put in that show. If any of you are in Calgary and you hear this episode before I go to the show, it's April 12th, 2025, so you can catch me there and come and see some of the awesome pieces of Pyrex that I'm going to have there, and just other, other things that I have found over the last year or so. Going to Value Village today kind of brings me to my episode, where I always go down the appliance section, and I never expect to find anything in this section. It's usually a bunch of really beat up, lately it's been donut makers, those little instant donut makers or cake pop makers, so nothing really great in vintage, but it got me thinking about kind of the small kitchen appliances that people used in their home in the 1960s. Bex Scott: [00:04:47] So I was doing some research and I came across this really great article in, the websites called Click Americana.Com. So go to my show notes and navigate to this article. It's called 1960s Gadgets and Small Kitchen Appliances Made Life a Little Easier, and this episode is going to be a bit of a read through the article and take you through it, but I want you to make sure that you see these photos, because a lot of them are clips taken from old catalogs and magazines, and it'll give you a really great idea of the pieces and the appliances that they had in their kitchens. And a lot of these I have seen at Value Village before, and other thrift stores, and some of them I even have in my basement right now waiting to be sold. So it's kind of a bit of an educational episode and a fun little show and tell as well. Bex Scott: [00:05:40] So the first one we have is the retro wall-mounted manual can opener by Can-O-Mat. And this is from the 1960s, and the ad shows a little lady in the reflection of the can opener opening her can and it says most beautiful can opener made. Its clean, uncluttered beauty tells you Can-O-Mat is a masterpiece of mechanical simplicity. No levers, gadgets, wires or motors, just the easy turn of a single handle opens any can, any size, any shape. Leaves a smooth, safe drinking cup edge. That's why you'll find Can-O-Mat in most kitchens, where quiet, good taste and smooth efficiency are happily wedded. Any wonder its first choice of millions of style conscious homemakers? I struggle with can openers, all of the modern ones. I think they're terrible. I have trouble figuring out how to use them, and half the time they don't even cut properly. So it kind of has me thinking that I should be looking for one of these in the stores when I'm out and about. Bex Scott: [00:06:42] Next up we have the Oster electric meat grinder. It's called the Electric Power Unit. It sits on your countertop and it says versatile and powerful, Oster electric meat grinder slices through foods without tearing, bruising, or mashing. That sounds kind of gross. Speedily and effortlessly grinds all foods from toughest meats to the most delicate vegetables. Even grinds hard almonds. New economies, better meals, and far more pleasure in food preparation are yours every day from the very first day you own the Oster electric meat grinder. I don't know about you guys, but I find a lot of meat grinder parts when I'm shopping or when I've bought a lot at an estate sale or in an auction. They are never complete. I would love to be able to test out one of these meat grinders, but so far I haven't come across one that's a full unit. Bex Scott: [00:07:39] Next up we have the vintage General Electric rotisserie oven. This is really cute, it's a little countertop rotisserie oven and it says five good reasons for owning a General Electric rotisserie oven, in brackets, even if you have a good range oven. Number one is the rotisserie infrared broiler precision oven does so much more than an ordinary rotisserie. Does as many things, in fact, as an expensive range oven, and has range oven accuracy. Number two infrared broiling seals in the natural juices for best ever steaks and seafood. Brown and crusty outside. Delectable inside. Number three bake without heating up the kitchen. Separate baking element on bottom. Thermostatic heat control assure perfect cakes, breads, fancy desserts. Tilt top lid closes completely for baking. Glass window lets you peek in. This is like a fancy Easy-Bake oven. And then there's a picture. It kind of looks like a cat litter box with a lid on the top. Number four it has automatic push button controls. And number five, it's portable. You can cook anywhere with the General Electric rotisserie oven. That's pretty handy. You can take it to your friends houses. You could even cook in the parking lot if you have an outlet. Imagine taking this to a tailgate party. You just pull up your vintage rotisserie oven and put it on your tailgate. I would do that. Bex Scott: [00:09:07] Next up we have a waffle maker and it says makes four big waffles at a time. General Electric Sandwich Grill and Waffle Iron has reversible grids that make delicious pancakes too. Grills sandwiches, bacon, and eggs. This is one that we have a ton of modern equivalents of this, so it looks pretty similar to what we have now. I have a waffle maker, but it's a tiny one, but I can see how this would be awesome. It is massive. Next up is something that I see a lot of in the thrift stores. We have the vintage GE Stainless Steel automatic coffee maker, and this one is from 1961 and it has a cute little Christmas background. But I find that these vintage coffee makers make amazing coffee, and I've had many of them over the years where we've brewed our coffee in them, and it just tastes so much better than drinking from a Keurig or a Nespresso pod. Next, we have the front loading Toast-R-Oven toaster oven. So it's spelled toast with an R in the middle, and it has a pretty funny description. It says, hands the toast to you, no digging. Toasts all breads, any shape, top browns muffins, grilled cheese sandwiches. Bakes too, frozen desserts, meat pies, even meatloaf. And it is essentially just a countertop toaster oven. That's what it is. I always wanted a toaster oven as a kid because I remember my grandparents having one, and the toast comes out so nice in these toaster ovens. This might be a bad episode for me, because now I'm thinking of all the different things that I should be buying and my family will love me for having no kitchen counter space after I go out and hunt for all these pieces. Bex Scott: [00:11:05] Okay, next we have beats, whips, mixes, drinks, sharpens knives too. This is from 1961 and this is the General Electric portable mixer. Though it's only two and three quarter pounds, it's extra thorough with batters, extra gentle with sauces, extra marvelous with meringues. A free drink mixer fixes drinks in a whirl. This is a tongue twister. Remove beaters and plug in an optional accessory that sharpens knives. I've never seen one of these. Easily and safely. See the portable mixer in white, yellow, pink, and turquoise. Oh, those are some good colors. I would pick pink. At your General Electric dealers. It's very interesting actually. So you take off the beaters and then you can use it as the knife sharpener, or you can whip things up if you put the beaters back in. Okay, next we have the Salton Hotray appliance. I have sold so many of these hotrays. I've gifted them to my mother in law. And I have a few still in my basement. These ones are from 1962, and I find them almost every time I go to Value Village. And it's always fun to see which kind, because the top of them is always a different pattern. There's some pretty ones with flowers, there's some with just funky abstract designs. But it says here that it protects your dinner after you've cooked it. It can do this because the temperature of its radiant heat glass panel is thermostatically controlled to a point right under the cooking point. Thus, the food on it neither continues to cook nor to stand around growing cold. This means that those late coming husbands and extra drink guests will no longer pay the price of an overcooked and dried out dinner. And when dinner is finally served, hotray will put an end to your jumping up and down from the table. You just put the entire dinner on hotray, put hotray on the dining table, and serve from there. First will taste like firsts and seconds will taste as good as first. Of course, there's much more to Salton Hotray. Find me on Instagram and let me know, Did you guys use hotrays growing up? Do you still use hotrays? Do you like them? What are your thoughts? Bex Scott: [00:13:19] Next up we have the automatic can opener kitchen gadget from 1961, and I'm pretty sure this is one that my grandparents had, and they mounted it to the underside of their kitchen cabinet. I remember this growing up vividly. It says it removes or hinges the lid quickly, cleanly, with no jagged edges. Magnet holds lid away from food, mounts on wall or optional counter stand. Next, we have a whole variety of vintage toasters from 1963. So we've got the GE Toast-R-Oven. We have the Two Slice that gives you nine shades of toast. We have the Dominion Four Slicer, ideal for big families, toasts 1 to 4 slices at a time, pops them up high, gives perfect results automatically. And it's chrome. We have the GE High Lift. Pops bread extra high, has easy to read control for light, dark or nine shades between. We have your Flip-Door toaster. It has a tray attached. Just flip doors, toast turns automatically, in a walnut trim. And then last we have the Toastmaster Sovereign. Has new controls up front. New concave design. Silent timer assures perfect shade of toast every single time. Bex Scott: [00:14:36] Next up we have kitchen cooking and heating small appliances from 1963. We've got the Hand Mixer. Hangs on wall, has giant beaters and three speeds. The Toastmaster Portable Mixer has three speeds removable, cord. The Salton Gourmet Hotray. We have the Rotisserie Broiler, the 2-Burner Hotplate, the 1-Burner Hotplate, the Sunbeam Electric Frypan. It's completely immersible. Jumbo 12" Electric Skillet is automatic and washable. The Electric Buffet Server gives low heat, holds two quarts, and the Corning 10" Electric Skillet goes under broiler, yet on matching base, it bakes, stews and fries. And they have a little Corning blue cornflower on top of that guy. Bex Scott: [00:15:28] The low silhouette blender. This one my grandparents also had, and it has the super dangerous looking like machete knife little blade in the bottom of it that I always got scared of when I was washing it. It doesn't have anything to say about it. It's pretty self-explanatory. Low, off, or high, that's about it. Vintage Presto coffee pots in white and black. These are really cool looking, they're actually, they look kind of atomic, kind of space age. And it says, does anyone on your street have the white one yet? Pardon us, but we do make a perfectly wonderful coffee maker. It's the one on the left in stainless steel with rich, glossy black trim, fully automatic. It brews a cup a minute of marvelous coffee and keeps it hot. The open spout means easy pouring, easy cleaning too, because it won't trap bitter oils in residues, and you can dunk the entire coffee maker without a worry. Families who live with it every day just love it. Still, we've had a mild but steady clamor, it wasn't a complaint, but a question. People kept asking why not make it white? Most people like the black one, we said. We might not have the volume and weight for mass production, we said. We might have to price it higher and then nobody would buy it. This is all in a magazine ad, just so you guys know. So we made the white one anyway, it's the one on the right. It makes wonderful coffee the same as the black one. It does cost a few pennies more, but now you have a choice. This is a crazy ad. We don't think you'll have trouble finding a black Presto on your street, but if you hurry, you still might be first with the white one. And that might be quite a kick. Wowzas. Bex Scott: [00:17:13] Okay, Salton Bun Warmer, I have this, I've used it, it's amazing. It's so hard to find with the original cloth cover that closes and shuts, but I actually found one and it's great. So if you come across a Salton Bun Warmer, you'd better get it. It says it actually makes ordinary buns taste good, good ones taste great, and great ones taste like heaven on earth. The Salton Electric Bun Warmer won't perform miracles. It won't make our American mass produced buns and rolls taste like the kind grandma supposedly made 50 years ago. But what the Salton Bun Warmer will do is make rolls and buns taste a good deal better. It does this by keeping buns and rolls warm and fresh and crisp. And this ad, this is the exact one that I have. You can get the bun warmer for 9.95 or the French bread warmer for 11.95. Next up we have our Redi-Oven appliance tableside cooker from 1965. New, fast, easy, versatile, large capacity, compact electric oven that holds even a 3 pound roast or an 8 inch pie. Gleaming chrome finish with porcelain enamel interior. Automatic timer and controlled heat up to 500 degrees, perfect for preparing frozen foods, biscuits, baked potatoes right at the table. I want one of these. I've never seen this, but I want it. Double bonus $7.50 value international Silver Party Tray, plus free coupons for these famous frozen foods. Oh, so they were giving away this leaf shaped serving tray with a spoon as well. Bex Scott: [00:18:55] Vintage 1960s Ronson Foodmatic in-counter appliance. Ronson Foodmatic slices, shreds, grinds meat and coffee, juices oranges, crushes ice, it even cooks. That is a versatile piece of equipment. It's very interesting looking as well. It sits on top of your counter. You can put beaters in there for baking. What else does it say? Automatic timer, solid state speed, beater clutch and arm release, speed selector guide. It's quite the 1969 invention. Okay, next up we have vintage small kitchen appliances and decorator colors from 1969. General Electric gives you a festival of color, flame, avocado, and harvest. Appliances include a can opener slash knife sharpener, portable mixers and stand mixers, Dutch skillet, buffet skillet, and a blender. I love these colors. These are awesome. Not so much the avocado, but I could see myself with the harvest yellow one or the flame. The flame is a really nice red. And that is it for our 1960s gadgets and small kitchen appliances. I hope you guys go to the show notes to get a great visual of the items that I talked about, and find me on Instagram at Pyrex with Bex, and let me know if you remember growing up with any of these appliances, what you loved, what you didn't, and if you have any in your kitchen now. Thanks everybody.

Crafting impactful toasts for every occasion."Almost reflexively, most of us focus in the moment on how others are perceiving us, yet these situations aren't about us at all." Matt Abrahams, host of Think Fast, Talk Smart, shares an excerpt from his book, Think Faster, Talk Smarter: How to Speak Successfully When You're Put on the Spot, on the art of delivering effective toasts and tributes. With a focus on public speaking in celebratory contexts, he offers a structured approach to crafting meaningful remarks.Matt introduces the WHAT structure—a four-part formula designed to guide speakers through the process. This method helps ensure that the focus remains on the honorees, transforming speeches into gifts for the audience. He further shares tips for refining remarks, including the importance of brevity and the need to prepare for emotional moments. Matt advises, "Be brief and to the point. Long toasts, tributes, or introductions are usually bad ones."

Despite what the box office magazine reports are saying, this movie is kicking the butts (in box office returns AND hearts) of other movies released around the same time INCLUDING Scorsese's Killers of the Flower Moon AND Ridley Scott's Napolean. Both of THOSE films are being lauded as successes, so why is The Marvels being called a failure? Sara & Chloe have some theories. Also, why the F*CK is COP28 being held in the UAE, and led by the head of a major oil company? Greta called it years ago: It's all blah blah blah. And finally a quick toast to two MAJOR leading ladies in US history who've recently passed  - the first female justice of the Supreme Court Sandra Day O'Connor, and former First Lady Rosalynn Carter; Both incredible women who fought hard to carve their own legacies at a time in history when women generally weren't allowed to wield any kind of influence over the state of the world - and YET... they persisted! — A Broad is a woman who lives by her own rules.

In this episode, Adam and Budi conclude their 2023 Book Club series with a deep dive into 'The Art of Gathering' by Priya Parker. We look at the transformative impact this text had on Adam's professional journey. Serendipitously, we were able to record this episode on the day of Budi's PhD Seminar which allowed us to reflect on the power of intentional gatherings and the subsequent impact of shared experiences.Priya Parker's bold approach to gatherings redefines the ways people connect, learn, and develop relationships. The acclaimed author of The Art of Gathering: How We Meet and Why it Matters, executive producer and host of the New York Times podcast, Together Apart, and the founder of boutique advisory firm Thrive Labs, she helps activists, elected officials, corporate executives, educators, and philanthropists create transformative, unforgettable gatherings that allow them to step back from their daily routine, rediscover their motivations, and develop strategies for innovation.In The Art of Gathering, Parker combines fascinating case studies culled from an international cast of characters with practices to follow—and rules to break— to connect more meaningfully with friends, colleagues, and strangers. She includes examples from her attempts to create connections, illustrating which tactics worked and which ones failed. Included among her success stories are “#IamHere Days,” self-organized adventures in which a group of people unplugs and explores a neighborhood, and “15 Toasts,” dinner parties where each guest has to toast to a common theme (the twist: the last one has to sing their toast). Parker's interactive talks are both a demonstration of the techniques described in her books and a guide on how to implement her strategies.Parker has helped numerous clients develop better in-person and virtual gatherings, including the Museum of Modern Art, LVMH, the World Economic Forum, meetup.com, and Civitas Public Affairs. Trained in conflict resolution, she has worked on peace processes in the Arab world, Southern Africa, and India, and is a founding member of the Sustained Dialogue Campus Network, where she worked on race relations on American college campuses. She has been appointed as a member of the World Economic Forum Global Agenda Council on Values and the New Models of Leadership Council, and is also a senior expert at Mobius Executive Leadership.Parker's The Art of Gathering: How We Meet and Why It Matters has been named a Best Business Book of the year by Amazon, Esquire Magazine, NPR, the Financial Times, 1-800-CEO-READS and Bloomberg. She has spoken on the TED Main Stage, and her TEDx talk on purpose has been viewed over one million times.Her work has been featured in The New York Times, the Wall Street Journal, Forbes.com, Oprah.com, Real Simple Magazine, Glamour, The Today Show, and Support the showPlease help us send BRIGHT LIGHT BURNING to COP28 in Dubai.
