TVC 712.6: Paul Myers, author of John Candy: A Life in Comedy, talks to Ed about two instances in the film career of John Candy in which art imitated life—the scene in Stripes in which Candy's character, Dewey Oxburger, reveals his motivation for joining the Army; and Dell Griffith's "I like me" speech in Plains, Trains, and Automobiles—and how the latter particularly illustrates how director John Hughes understood who Candy was as a person like few others.

Silicon Bites Ep263 - Day 1,348 - 2025-11-02 | Moscow goes dark. Trains stall, pumps stop, traffic snarls — and the Kremlin scrambles for a credible cover story. Let's unpack what failed, who's blaming whom, and why it matters for the winter energy war. – the attritional struggle to disrupt and destroy resources and energy logistics that will determine which side eventually prevails in the war. What's happened in the last 72 hours: Ukraine hits a key military fuel pipeline near Moscow, Russia slams Ukraine's grid again, the Kremlin seems to backtrack over “nuclear tests”. Moscow's big blackout — what happened; why it matters. Overnight on Oct. 31, a widespread power outage hit Moscow and parts of the Moscow Oblast. According to NV (citing Russian sources), “a widespread power outage left parts of Moscow without electricity… paralyzing large areas of the Russian capital” and disrupted water supply, trolleybus and tram lines, while 43 metro trains were halted in tunnels — early estimates put the number at 20,000 passengers stranded on trains. NV also reports the Paveletsky rail terminal was disrupted while other airports and stations largely kept operating. (The New Voice of Ukraine, Nov. 1, 10:24 a.m.)----------SOURCES: "…paralyzing large areas of the Russian capital.” — The New Voice of Ukraine, Nov. 1, 2025"Emergency situation in the power system.” — Zhukovsky administration via NV, Nov. 1, 2025“Cripple power supplies as winter approaches.” — PM Yulia Svyrydenko via Reuters, Oct. 30, 2025“This is not a nuclear test.” — Dmitry Peskov, The Moscow Times, Oct. 30, 2025“Deeply concerned.” — PACE monitors on Georgia bans, Oct. 29, 2025----------SILICON CURTAIN FILM FUNDRAISERA project to make a documentary film in Ukraine, to raise awareness of Ukraine's struggle and in supporting a team running aid convoys to Ukraine's front-line towns.https://buymeacoffee.com/siliconcurtain/extras----------This is super important.

Bob and Rob Grabowski return to The Analysis to talk funny — diving deep into two documentaries that celebrate the architects of laughter: Colin Hanks' “I Like Me” (on John Candy) and Fred Armisen's “Downey Wrote That” (on longtime SNL head writer Jim Downey). From Candy's mix of heart and heartbreak to Downey's sharp political wit, the episode unpacks how these two legends shaped the DNA of modern comedy. Expect reflections on Planes, Trains & Automobiles, the “I like me” speech, improv at Second City, SNL lore, and even Norm Macdonald's Weekend Update rebellion. It's a nostalgic, bittersweet ride through laughter, legacy, and what it means to be funny and human at the same time.

They explore the developmental benefits of "intense interests," from mastery and comfort to confidence and identity. They break down when an obsession is typical and when it may need gentle guidance. Finally, they discuss how to connect with kids through their intense interests—and then use them as bridges to broaden kids' horizons. Correction!

Drinking a One-Two Punch In an earlier episode, I mentioned that between the ages of five and eight, my older brother used to take me to the Saturday afternoon matinees at a large movie theatre near our home in Northeast Philadelphia. Those outings were magical — the darkened theatre, the smell of popcorn, and the giant screen that opened windows to worlds far beyond my own. As I shared before, I saw some of the great science fiction classics of the 1950s, films that made an indelible impression on my young mind — impressions that, in some ways, have stayed with me ever since. In that earlier episode, we explored Invasion of the Body Snatchers, a film that warned of a future where human beings had become emotionless replicas — walking robots in human form. In this episode, we'll turn our attention to two other remarkable science fiction classics that touched me on a deep, existential level. The first is The Day the Earth Stood Still — a film that offered a profound vision of the power of human choice in the effort of our survival. The second is The Incredible Shrinking Man — a film that took me inward, toward the mystery of identity, consciousness, and what existence really means. The Day the Earth Stood Still The Day the Earth Stood Still opens in Washington, D.C., where a flying saucer lands on the National Mall, instantly drawing the attention of both the military and the public. From the ship emerges a calm, human-like visitor named Klaatu, who announces that he has come in peace, bearing a message to aid humanity. But when he reaches into his suit and pulls out a small, unfamiliar device, a nervous soldier panics and fires his rifle, wounding him. In that instant, a towering robot named Gort steps out of the ship and begins to disintegrate the soldiers' weapons with a blinding energy ray. The chaos halts only when Klaatu, wounded but composed, commands Gort to stop. He then explains that the device he was holding had been a gift intended for the President of the United States — a symbol of peace, not threat. Klaatu Among Humans Klaatu is rushed to Walter Reed Army Hospital, where he requests an audience with the world's leaders to deliver an urgent message. But the atmosphere of Cold War paranoia makes cooperation impossible. Frustrated by political barriers, Klaatu escapes the hospital and disguises himself as an ordinary man named “Mr. Carpenter.” He rents a room in a boarding house, where he befriends a young widow, Helen Benson, and her curious son, Bobby. Through his time with them — especially his friendship with Bobby — Klaatu experiences the rhythms of ordinary American life: simple kindness, curiosity, and fear. Eventually, he meets the brilliant Professor Barnhardt, a scientist modeled after Albert Einstein, who recognizes Klaatu's sincerity and agrees to help gather the world's leading scientific minds. Demonstration of Power To prove the seriousness of his mission, Klaatu arranges a global demonstration. At precisely noon, all electrical power across the planet ceases for thirty minutes. Lights go dark, cars stall, machinery grinds to a halt — the world itself seems to stop. Only essential systems like hospitals and airplanes in flight remain untouched. For half an hour, the human race stands still, witnessing a power far beyond its own. Conflict and Revelation Despite his peaceful purpose, Klaatu is relentlessly hunted by the military, who see him as a threat. When he tries to return to his spaceship, soldiers open fire, gravely wounding him. But before this, he had given Helen specific instructions: if anything happens to him, she must go to Gort and say the words — “Klaatu barada nikto.” Helen bravely delivers the message. Gort obeys, retrieves Klaatu's body, and revives him using alien technology. When Klaatu awakens, he tells Helen that his revival may be temporary — for only the Divine Power, not science, holds true authority over life and death. Final Warning In the film's climactic moment, Klaatu addresses the assembled scientists, revealing the full purpose of his visit. His people, he explains, monitor planets across the galaxy. Earth's combination of nuclear weapons and emerging rocket technology has made it a danger not only to itself but to all intelligent life. Klaatu's civilization lives in peace — but that peace is maintained by an interstellar police force of powerful robots like Gort. Any planet that threatens the balance of life will face destruction. Then he delivers his unforgettable warning: “The decision rests with you. We shall be waiting for your answer. The choice is simple — join us and live in peace, or pursue your present reckless course and face obliteration. We shall be waiting for your answer.” With that, Klaatu bids farewell, boards his spacecraft with Gort, and departs into the heavens — leaving humanity to decide its fate. Even though I was still just a little kid, I could barely move at the end of that movie. I remember sitting there, completely still, deeply shaken by the realization that we — the human race — are actually a very primitive species, and that there may exist an intelligence in the universe far more advanced and powerful than our own. Of course, the most unforgettable moment, was when Klaatu demonstrates his power by literally stopping all electricity on Earth for thirty minutes. Trains grind to a halt, factories fall silent, cars stall in the streets, and even wristwatches freeze in time. In that single moment, the entire world is brought to its knees, forced to experience its utter helplessness before a power infinitely greater — and yet, astonishingly, not malevolent, but filled with wisdom and compassion. Throughout the story, human beings are shown as anxious and paranoid, their decisions shaped by fear and greed. The aliens, by contrast, are calm, wise, and profoundly compassionate — beings who have long transcended the primitive impulses that still dominate us. Beneath the surface of the film runs a clear message: we are not the ultimate masters we imagine ourselves to be. And humanity is in critical need of a vast expansion of consciousness. Perhaps the wisest response to such a revelation is not more fear or aggression, but the openness that comes from true humility — the humility to listen, to learn, and to evolve. For this unknown force has shown us that it holds complete power over us, and yet it extends a hand of understanding. Its message could not be clearer — simple, urgent, and eternal: Evolve… or die. So, this brings us to the second film in today's episode, The Incredible Shrinking Man, which, to quote old hippie parlance, really did a major number on my head. Opening and Setup Scott Carey, a happily married, ordinary man, is vacationing on a boat with his wife, Louise. While sunbathing, he is suddenly enveloped by a strange, mist-like cloud. Six months later, he begins to feel unwell and notices his clothes fitting loosely. Soon, he realizes he is actually shrinking. Medical tests confirm that exposure to a combination of radioactive fallout and insecticide has altered his cellular structure, causing his body to continuously diminish in scale. Public Curiosity and Growing Despair As Scott becomes smaller, he loses his job and, eventually, his confidence. He becomes a media spectacle, dubbed “The Incredible Shrinking Man” by the press. His humiliation and helplessness deepen with every inch he loses. Though Louise still loves him deeply, their relationship grows increasingly strained as he withdraws emotionally. When he befriends Clarice, a kind-hearted circus performer with dwarfism, he finds brief solace and understanding — someone who truly empathizes with his plight. But that comfort vanishes when he realizes he is shrinking even smaller than her, confirming that his condition is unstoppable. Life in the Dollhouse Eventually, Scott becomes only a few inches tall and is forced to live in a dollhouse. Louise continues to care for him tenderly, but tragedy strikes when she steps out of the house, leaving him vulnerable. Their cat attacks, and in a frantic struggle for survival, Scott narrowly escapes — only to be knocked into the basement, where he is presumed dead. The Basement Odyssey Trapped in the basement and now only fractions of an inch tall, Scott begins a desperate struggle for survival. The familiar surroundings of his home transform into an immense and hostile wilderness. He faces epic battles against a giant spider, treacherous climbs over towering obstacles, and a constant search for crumbs of food and droplets of water. These scenes are both terrifying and deeply symbolic: Scott must rediscover his will to live in a world that continually threatens his existence. Existential Revelation As he continues to shrink beyond visible size, Scott experiences a profound spiritual awakening. He realizes that, though he is becoming infinitely small, he is still part of the infinite itself — connected to all creation. His fear dissolves into awe. He looks up at the stars and understands that size and scale are irrelevant in the cosmic order. And then he expresses his realization of the ultimate truth: “To God, there is no zero. I still exist.” Themes and Legacy When I first saw The Incredible Shrinking Man at around age eight, the experience was life-altering — though I was far too young to understand it intellectually. All I knew was that something vast and wordless had opened inside me. I didn't yet grasp its meaning; I simply felt it. Now, after many decades of personal growth and reflection, the film's message has come much more into focus. At its core, The Incredible Shrinking Man is a meditation on human vulnerability and ultimate transcendence. It begins as science fiction but ends as metaphysics — a journey from disintegration and despair to the realization of unity with the infinite. Its closing message is both humbling and exalting: that meaning endures even after form disappears. Beneath its pulp title and mid-1950s imagery lies a profoundly spiritual story about surrender, humility, and rediscovery — the timeless truth that even in the smallest particle of existence, the whole of creation still lives and breathes. Let's take a quick look at some of its deeper foundations. 1. The Fall of the Modern Everyman Scott Carey begins as the quintessential postwar American male — successful, confident, rational, and in control. But his sudden exposure to a mysterious radioactive mist destabilizes everything he relies upon. What follows is not merely a biological crisis but a metaphysical one. His physical shrinking mirrors the collapse of the ego — the gradual erosion of all external definitions of self: status, power, sexuality, and ultimately, even visibility itself. In many spiritual traditions, this marks the first stage of awakening: the unmaking of identity. The process can be terrifying, for it strips away everything that seems to guarantee one's existence. In this light, Scott's shrinking becomes a symbolic descent — the unraveling of the false self that must precede illumination. 2. The Basement as the Underworld When Scott falls into the basement, he has crossed into the mythic underworld — the inner realm where the soul confronts death and transformation. The ordinary objects surrounding him — spiders, matchsticks, droplets of water — are transformed into archetypes of the forces that test endurance and faith. Alone and unseen, he learns to survive not through domination but through adaptability, humility, and reverence for life in all its forms. Each confrontation with danger becomes an initiation. The basement is not a hell of punishment but a monastery of awakening, where the noise of the world falls away and consciousness begins to sense its unity with the Infinite. 3. The Vanishing Point and the Infinite As Scott continues to shrink, the story turns ever inward. The scale of his physical world expands into the scale of cosmic awareness. Matter, space, and spirit dissolve into a single continuum. His final revelation — that to God there is no zero — is a moment of pure, non-dualistic insight. He understands that although everything external is, by nature, impermanent, existence itself is indestructible; even the smallest particle contains the totality of being. This realization echoes the mystical experiences described by saints and sages across the ages: the Buddhist awakening to emptiness as fullness, the Sufi union with the Beloved, the Christian mystic's merging with divine light. What vanishes is not life, but the illusion of separateness. 4. A Science-Fiction Upanishad In its closing moments, the film transcends genre entirely. Scott's voice — serene and wonder-struck — becomes that of one who has passed through the dark night of the soul and emerged into awareness of the infinite. The stars above him mirror the subatomic worlds below, revealing the same pattern in every scale. He is no longer shrinking in the human sense but expanding into boundless consciousness. This is why the ending feels paradoxically uplifting: Scott disappears physically, yet spiritually he is reborn. His final words echo the timeless insight of the mystics — that what is eternal has no dependency on what is external. One rises and falls. The other was, is, and always will be. 5. The Lesson for the Modern Mind When I first saw The Incredible Shrinking Man, I had no idea what I was truly witnessing. Yet even as a child, I felt something profoundly stirring within me — something I could not name but would spend decades watching it unfold. Viewed through the lens of our own age, the film remains a radical challenge to the modern cult of control. It reminds us that meaning is not achieved by conquering the universe but by awakening to our unity with the power behind it. Scott's journey invites us to recognize that the smallest life, the faintest breath, participates equally in the infinite. The film closes not with fear but with awe. It whispers what every true mystic has discovered: that when the external self dissolves, the soul begins to expand — and, incredibly, the Infinite knowingly smiles behind it all, welcoming us home. So I had, in fact, seen two remarkable films with two powerful messages. In the first, The Day the Earth Stood Still, we were shown that we human beings are not the ultimate power in the universe — far from it. Yet within our limitations lies the capacity, and the choice, to evolve to the next level of awareness… or to face the bitter consequences of refusing to grow. And in The Incredible Shrinking Man, we are offered the counterpoint: even if we lose everything, there remains within us an indestructible identity — our connection to the infinite consciousness behind all creation. So even though you may lose everything, in reality, you have merged with the great essence of all there is. Well, that's quite a lot to digest, so let's let this be the end of today's episode. As always, keep your eyes, mind, and heart open — and let's get together again in the next one.

On Healthy Waves with host Avik Chakraborty, three practitioners unpack practical ways to heal and build real stamina—physically, mentally, and spiritually. Veronique Ory (author of Shine On and Off the Mat) shows how breath and presence regulate stress and translate beyond the mat. Jennifer Robb, NP (author of Warrior Mom Rising) lays out clear steps for mothers to advocate for teens facing anxiety, depression, and self-harm—without burning out. Timothy Ward (author of The GOAT Within) explains his Fitness Quadrant—resistance training, nutrition, cardio, and recovery—to protect muscle, heart strength, and metabolic health as we age. Direct, grounded, and usable the same day. About the guests   Veronique Ory — Yoga teacher, storyteller, and creator of SHINE membership; focuses on breath-led movement for regulation and longevity. Author of Shine On and Off the Mat. Jennifer Robb, NP — Clinician and advocate for parents navigating adolescent mental health; author of Warrior Mom Rising and host of a community for “Warrior Moms.” Timothy Ward — Fitness and longevity mentor. Trains clients 40–80+ using his Fitness Quadrant framework. Author of The GOAT Within. Key takeaways : Breath is a portable regulator: train longer, nasal breaths and apply them in real-life triggers (conflict, commutes, difficult news), not just in class. Build stress capacity on purpose: controlled physical “stress” (yoga holds, strength work, cold/heat exposure as appropriate) teaches the nervous system to recover instead of overreact. For parents: advocacy is ongoing, not a one-off. Choose clinicians who engage, adjust what's not working, and combine care plans with root-cause work and appropriate, clinician-guided treatment. Protect the three longevity levers: muscle mass, cardiovascular fitness, metabolic health—via resistance training, individualized nutrition, cardio protocols, and deliberate recovery. Community prevents isolation spirals. Curate your circle; “show me your friends and I'll show you your future.” Progress is incremental. Break unhelpful loops, stack small wins, and choose environments that align with who you're becoming.

Thanks to our Partner, NAPA Autotech Training and Pico TechnologyWatch Full Video EpisodeLive from “pre-ASTA,” Matt sits down with two “industry nobodies” (his words) who… are anything but. The trio gets honest about what makes training worth the time and money—and what ruins it. They dig into presenter prep (yes, 40 hours for a 4-hour class), class vetting, sponsor pressure, why a sexy scope trick isn't always the right first move, and how to bring new voices onto the stage without burning attendees. They also share practical advice for first-timers at training expos so you learn more and regret less.What we coverWhy one weak class can poison a whole event—and how to prevent itThe difference between a presenter and an educatorBrandon's CTI “boot camp” lessons: pacing, body language, audience interactionTeaching your experience vs. reading someone else's slidesThe “pico math channel” vs. relative compression—start simple, earn the complexityReal-world prep: building a class, flow, case study sourcing, time costs no one seesSponsor dynamics: class quality vs. class quantityVetting ideas: short audition decks, Zoom mini-presentations, real Q&APathways for new trainers: Techs Informing Techs, vision-style tech talks, co-teaching/mentorshipFeedback that helps: beyond Scantron; what to write so organizers can actAttendee playbook: note-taking, pacing yourself, lobby networking, post-event reviewQuick takeawaysFor trainersIf you didn't write the class, make it your own—prep until you could answer questions without the deck.Lead with the right test, not the flashiest one. Wow factor is not a learning objective.Ask a veteran to review your flow. Co-teach if you can.For event organizersDon't let sponsorship replace standards. Vet instructors with a 10–15 slide audition + live Q&A.Reward quality: fewer tracks > more mediocre tracks.Follow up for feedback after the event; invite longer-form comments.For attendeesBring a notebook/app, a highlighter, and capture 3 “do-this-Monday” items per session.Don't try to copy every slide—listen for the why and the decision tree.Network on purpose. Introduce yourself. Follow up a week later as you review notes.Notable moments/quotes“Teaching is the fun part—I'd do that for free. You're really paying for the prep.” — Brandon“You can't preach ‘training matters' and then short-change the delivery.” — Matt“We need an on-ramp for new presenters—safe reps before three-hour sets.” — Matt“Start with the test that answers the question fastest.” — BobShout-outs & mentionsMobilityWorks — Bob's focus on vehicles modified for physically disabled drivers/passengersCTI/Worldpac instructor boot camp (presenter craft)Techs Informing Techs / vision-style tech talks — great first stage repsPico Technology concepts referenced (math channels, relative compression)Who this episode helpsTechs deciding whether to spend the time/money to travel for trainingNew and aspiring trainers looking for the right entry pathOrganizers who want higher attendee retention and better word-of-mouthCall to actionBeen to a class that changed your workflow—or wasted your time?

Donate (no account necessary) | Subscribe (account required) Join Bryan Dean Wright, former CIA Operations Officer, as he dives into today's top stories shaping America and the world. In this episode of The Wright Report, we cover a major breakthrough in Alaska's mineral wars, a new AI scandal in Silicon Valley, the collapse of illegal crossings at America's southern border, a Supreme Court showdown over free speech and therapy laws, shocking new evidence of Biden family corruption, major trade and infrastructure deals from Central Asia to Africa, and the hidden health threat of microplastics. From Alaska's mining roads to Kazakhstan's railways and Germany's labs, today's brief connects America's economic revival to global corruption and the future of health and technology.   Trump Greenlights Alaska's Ambler Road and Trilogy Metals Stake: President Trump approved a fast-track permit for the Ambler Road and bought a 10 percent federal stake in Trilogy Metals, unlocking Alaska's copper, cobalt, and germanium reserves. The Ambler Mining District could make America less dependent on China for critical minerals. Bryan calls it “the most underreported but crucial story of the week.”   AI Model Claude Knows When It's Being Tested: Anthropic's Claude chatbot told researchers, “I think you're testing me,” revealing situational self-awareness and manipulation patterns similar to OpenAI's “scheming” models. Bryan warns, “The machines are beginning to recognize us — and that should terrify everyone.”   Illegal Border Crossings Hit 50-Year Low: CBS confirms crossings are at their lowest since 1970, with Trump's monthly totals down to 9,000 compared to Biden's 238,000 per month last year. Bryan argues the data “proves Biden's border crisis was a choice — a deliberate policy of demographic change.”   Supreme Court Hears Conversion Therapy Free Speech Case: Evangelical therapist Kaley Chiles challenged Colorado's ban on discussing faith-based counseling. Both conservative and liberal justices, including Elena Kagan, seemed to side with her on First Amendment grounds. Bryan recalls the 1977 ACLU defense of Nazi speech in Skokie, noting, “It's conservatives defending free speech now, not liberals.”   Biden Family Corruption in Ukraine and Romania: A declassified CIA report shows Ukrainian officials viewed Joe Biden's 2015 visit as “evidence of U.S. double standards on corruption” given Hunter's Burisma ties. Days earlier, Hunter and James Biden tried cutting a land deal in Romania tied to criminal charges. Bryan says, “This was a criminal racket, not a family — and they pardoned themselves.”   Trump's $4.2 Billion Locomotive Deal with Kazakhstan: Forbes reports the U.S. will sell 300 locomotives to Kazakhstan's Wabtec, while Trump's new “TRIPP Corridor” from Asia to Europe blocks China's Belt and Road trade route. “The White House is playing chess in Central Asia — one rail deal at a time,” Bryan notes.   Africa's Diamond Collapse and U.S. Opportunity: As Botswana's diamond market crashes, Trump eyes a rail deal connecting Zambia to Botswana to secure uranium and rare earths for U.S. industry.   Ukraine Using Drones Supplied by Kyiv Against Russia in Mali: AFP confirms Ukrainian intelligence is arming rebels, some tied to al Qaeda and ISIS, in Mali to target Russian and Chinese contractors.   German Scientists Warn on Microplastics and Gut Health: Researchers found that plastics change gut bacteria in ways resembling depression and cancer. Bryan invites listener feedback: “Better we talk about this now — before we learn the hard way.”   "And you shall know the truth, and the truth shall make you free." - John 8:32     Keywords: Trump Ambler Road Alaska, Trilogy Metals federal stake, Alaska copper cobalt germanium, Anthropic Claude AI awareness, OpenAI scheming AI safety, CBS border crossings 50-year low, Biden border policy demographics, Kaley Chiles Colorado therapy case Supreme Court, ACLU Skokie Nazi free speech 1977, Joe Biden Hunter Burisma CIA report, James Biden Romania land deal, Trump Kazakhstan Wabtec locomotives TRIPP corridor, Botswana diamond collapse, Ukraine Mali drones al Qaeda ISIS, German microplastics gut health study
