Fifteen years ago, the future of work seemed inevitable: bureaucracy was crumbling, adaptive organizations were the next default, and a whole movement of practitioners was going to get us there. That future never arrived. Agile transformation offices are being eliminated, the pendulum has swung hard back to command-and-control, and the companies we held up as proof are still the exceptions, not the rule. This week, Rodney and Sam take an honest look at the failure of the ways of working movement, including their own part in it. They dig into the mismatches that doomed so much of this work and get practical about what still works—because while the movement may have stalled, the moves still matter. -------------------------------- Ready to change your organization? ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Let's talk.⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ Get our newsletter: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Sign up here⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠.⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ Follow us: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠LinkedIn⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Instagram⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ -------------------------------- Mentioned references: Bradlees Twilight and Sunshine Zone Buurtzorg Morning Star: BNW Ep. 54 with Doug Kirkpatrick Haier "Bayer under Bill": BNW Ep. 68 with Bill Anderson Mary Parker Follett org debt: FOHR Miniseries action meeting: BNW Ep. 80 strategy stack: AWWTR EP. 2 op rhythm: BNW Ep. 118 00:00 Intro + Check-in: Your first music purchase with your own money? 05:18 The failure of the new ways of working movement 07:54 What we mean by "failure" 11:08 ZIRP, COVID, and the swing back to command-and-control 15:27 What people will buy isn't actually what they need 17:30 Selling Sunshine Zone products for Twilight Zone work 20:12 Bottoms-up to a fault 25:01 Nobody has capacity to learn anymore 28:11 Tennis vs. golf: the new consulting posture 35:23 Is local change worth it? 38:42 Failure of the movement, not the moves 40:34 Change #1 - Go deeper 42:49 Change #2 - Orient to the outcome 44:47 Change #3 - Branching roadmaps and scenario planning 46:15 Change #4 - Build organizations that benefit from change 49:15 The End Sound engineering and design by Taylor Marvin of ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Coupe Studios⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠.

In this episode of Professor Frenzy, we take a closer look at "Walking Distance," one of the most beloved and emotionally powerful episodes of The Twilight Zone. Written by Rod Serling, this classic tale follows advertising executive Martin Sloan as he unexpectedly returns to his hometown and encounters the past he has longed to revisit. We'll explore the episode's themes of nostalgia, regret, aging, and the impossibility of reliving our youth. We'll also discuss the performances, memorable moments, production history, and why many fans consider "Walking Distance" to be one of the finest episodes ever produced in The Twilight Zone's legendary run. Join us as we revisit this timeless classic and discover why its message remains as meaningful today as it was in 1959. Do you consider "Walking Distance" one of the greatest Twilight Zone Episodes? Let us know in the comments.

Spoiler alert: this week we're analyzing the Twilight Zone episode “The Obsolete Man.” Romney Wordsworth enters a cold, dark courtroom What are the charges? One count of professing to the vocation of a librarian, and the more serious charge of being obsolete–no longer useful to the State. You see, if you can no longer be of service to the State, you can no longer be of service to anyone. But, despite the thundering of the Chancellor atop his pulpit of hate, Mr. Wordsworth will hold on to his integrity and keep his head high through his sentencing. He shall be liquidated at midnight, but how it happens is a bit of a mystery. However, it will be televised for the world to see. And when the Chancellor himself shows up to bid Mr. Wordsworth adieu, things get interesting. On this episode of KOI: A Twilight Zone Show, we're going to be discussing whether or not we are heading to a place where men shall be obsolete; we'll ask why it's so disturbing for the State that Wordsworth is a librarian; and I'll reveal my moment of awe, a look into why I avoid telling my students what to think. So, grab your keys, and let's open up this door to the fifth dimension. Want to support the KOI show, get extra content, and give money to two awesome charities at the same time?

Brendan Sorsby admitted to betting on games while on the team and somehow gets a court ruling allowing him to play football. College athletics officially entered the Twilight Zone this week, and now athletic directors are talking about refusing to schedule Texas Tech in any sport. This week on Craft Brewed Sports:

We'll also discuss his appearances on shows such as Gunsmoke, The Twilight Zone, and his lasting legacy as one of the most dependable character actors of the Golden Age of Television.

Episode #291: Valerie Long (Richard Long, Mara Corday)   Today on another encore episode of the Rarified Heir Podcast, we are talking to Valerie Long, daughter of actors Richard Long and Mara Corday. It took some time for Valerie to come around to the idea of being on the podcast and frankly, we get it. As you will hear, her recollections about her father's passing at an early age and her difficulties with that loss play a part in this conversation.   For many of us, Richard Long is best known from either television shows The Big Valley or Nanny and the Professor. We discuss those shows as well as The Twilight Zone, 77 Sunset Strip, Maverick as well as his films – he made his debut on the silver screen with Orson Wells and Claudette Colbert, in Tomorrow is Forever. I mean….. We also discuss her actress, dancer, model mother Mara Corday who passed away after this episode was recorded. In fact, we got a call from the New York Times regarding her career when they wrote her obituary as they wanted to confirm a few things we discussed on the podcast with Valerie. It's almost unfathomable to know that the New York Times would site our podcast when talking about the life and career of Mara Corday. Thanks to Valerie for being so open and honest about everything and for being on the podcast to tell her story. Along the way, we discuss family friends like Clint Eastwood, Roddy McDowell, Dan Rowan, Peter Marshall and many others. Additionally we discuss a story we frankly never knew about prior to this episode. Prior to her parents' marriage, Richard was married to an up-and-coming actress named Suzan Ball who died shortly after their wedding at age 22, when Richard was only 23. It's a tragic story that we uncover talking to Valerie who gives us the details about how this likely affected her father. The Rarified Heir Podcast, everyone has a story.

We invite you into a podcast, not too different from our own, a podcast of only sound. Lesley and Ben enter The Twilight Zone, the 1959 CBS produced anthology tv show about the strange, bizarre and unnatural. Written and produced by Rod Serling, the Twilight Zone is an eerie half hour format show that rides the line between science-fiction, horror and mystic and plunges audience members into tales from a bizarre dimension of the mind. What happens in The Twilight Zone? Neighbors turn against each other in The Monsters are Due on Maple Street, a jilted millionaire fakes a nuclear war in One More Pallbearer, and a sasquatch like gremlin attacks William Shatner in Nightmare at 20,000 Feet. We're starting off our new season of Syndicated with Lesley and Ben by analyzing our favorite science-fiction shows. Ray guns, alternate dimensions, robot butlers and planetary fleets. Science fiction is a lens through which we can view all other issues and the two episodes we picked To Serve Man and Will the Real Martian Please Stand Up? are prime examples. In Season 2, Episode 28's Will the Real Martian Please Stand Up?, two state troopers find an unidentified flying object has crashed into a blizzard afflicted area. When they wander back toward civilization, they find evidence that the Martian pilot is hiding amongst a group of bus passengers in a diner. The only problem is that they have no way of identifying which human the alien is disguising itself as. Paranoia breaks out as the lights flicker and Dragnet's Barney Phillips plays a fry cook.

After three people died on the set of Twilight Zone: The Movie, it took four years to get five defendants into a courtroom and another 10 months before anyone knew how it would end. What unfolded in between was part legal battle, part Hollywood spectacle and entirely unlike anything the film industry had faced before.

Step into the mysterious world of The Twilight Zone as we explore the classic Season 1 episode, "The Last Flight." In this unforgettable tale, a British World War I pilot suddenly finds himself transported decades into the future, where he must confront the consequences of a decision that has haunted him for years. In this episode, we examine Rod Serling's compelling themes of courage, honor, redemption, and destiny. We'll discuss the performances, the historical backdrop of World War I aviation,  thought-provoking script, and why "The Last Flight" remains one of the most underrated episodes of The Twilight Zone. Whether you're a longtime fan of the series or discovering this episode for the first time, join us as we take a closer look at this fascinating blend of science fiction, fantasy and historical drama.

According to a recently published forensic review highlighted by Euronews, investigators now argue Cobain may have been murdered in a homicide staged to resemble suicide. The findings reportedly cite evidence suggesting someone forcibly gave Cobain a massive heroin overdose to incapacitate him before shooting him in the face with a shotgun. The report also points to what researchers describe as an “eerily clean” crime scene, inconsistencies in blood evidence, questions surrounding the positioning of the weapon, and organ damage allegedly more consistent with oxygen deprivation from overdose than immediate death from a gunshot wound. Believable? That is for audiences to decide. But history is filled with examples where murders were allegedly disguised as suicides to close cases quickly and eliminate scrutiny. Names like Danny Casolaro and Vince Foster still provoke fierce debate decades later. If these new findings are even remotely credible, then the next unavoidable question becomes motive — not only motive for murder, but motive for a cover-up. That is where the conversation becomes explosive. It is no secret that intelligence agencies closely monitor celebrity culture because celebrities shape public opinion, trends, political attitudes, and generational identity. Entertainment is soft power. Narrative management matters. And when influential cultural figures drift outside approved boundaries, history suggests strange things can happen around them. Richard Syrett is uniquely positioned to explore this volatile intersection of forensics, celebrity influence, intelligence operations, media manipulation, and the enduring mystery surrounding Cobain's death. Was this merely another conspiracy theory destined for internet rabbit holes? Or is this one of the biggest cultural cover-ups of the modern era hiding in plain sight?Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/arroe-collins-like-it-s-live--4113802/support.

It's playtime! Pop Screen is starting a themed month on "autobiopics" - films where pop stars play themselves, but in a different context to the standard rock doc. The nearest we'll get to documentary is this film by Morgan Neville, which sees Pharrell Williams talk about his incredible career and range of star collaborators - Kendrick Lamar, Gwen Stefani, Jay-Z and more - through the medium of, er, Lego.Joining regular host Graham, Mark Harrison talks about the history of "brickfilms", the Lego franchise's move from studio to studio, and the vexed question of whether 'Happy' is annoying or not. We also talk about the film's insight into creativity, the other Pharrell Williams movie directed by Michel Gondry that you'll never see, and, of course, try to imagine what he thought he was doing with that bloody hat. It's the podcast of the summer!Our Patreon brings all the boys to the yard, and no wonder - we've just launched Graham and Mark Cunliffe's exclusive new arts and culture podcast The Arts Hole there. You'll find that along with Patreon exclusive episodes of this show - listen to the end to find out what's next - written articles about The Twilight Zone and Doctor Who, and much more.

NOTE: This episode was recorded in 2025.Mr. Rixon and Mrs. Allgood are back! We have travelled through another dimension (and a multi-year hiatus) to bring you another episode of Who Knew? A History Podcast! In this episode, we explore the life and career of Rod Serling, the television creator behind The Twilight Zone. We explore his military service in World War II, his career in both radio and television, how his show has become a landmark in the history of television.

This week, Andy, Dave and producer Dane take a trip into The Twilight Zone as they explore the lost art of the TV anthology series.Andy finally confronts the black-and-white original Twilight Zone and watches the legendary "Time Enough at Last" – discovering that maybe, just maybe, old television isn't quite as rubbish as he thought. Along the way, the team discuss nuclear anxiety, thick-rimmed spectacles, Fallout's possible Twilight Zone influences, and whether the show's famous twists still work today.Dane jumps forward to the 1980s revival with the unsettling "Wordplay", a story in which language itself begins to break down. The conversation turns to communication, isolation, dementia, and why some of the scariest stories contain no monsters at all.Meanwhile, Dave heads into the darker corners of Black Mirror with the Christmas classic "White Christmas", starring Jon Hamm and Rafe Spall. The team discuss digital isolation, AI consciousness, social blocking made real, and why Charlie Brooker's vision of the future feels more relevant than ever.Three anthology classics. Three very different nightmares. And one question: are the most frightening stories really the ones about being completely alone?Featuring:• The Twilight Zone – "Time Enough at Last" (1959)• The Twilight Zone – "Wordplay" (1986)• Black Mirror – "White Christmas" (2014)Plus: Rod Serling, Wes Craven, nuclear war, Christmas existential dread, and why Dane has somehow become the lightning rod for listener complaints.To join Scarred Club and get fortnightly bonus episodes, ad-free listening and access to the members forum - sign-up here - ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://scarredforlife.supportingcast.fm/⁠⁠Send us a voice note on WhatsApp - 07457 404 279Follow us on socials:Scarred For Life - ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Facebook⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ / ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Instagram⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Production Company - ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Lock It In Studio⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Andy Bush - ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Twitter⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ / ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Instagram⁠⁠⁠ Learn more about your ad choices.

WHAT IS SPLATTERPUNK?If you want to understand what makes splatterpunk so different from the horror that came both before and after, your best bet is to read the authors who pioneered the form. It wasn't just the visceral intensity of their literary assaults on convention. All the key writers – Clive Barker, Joe R. Lansdale, David J. Schow, and John Skipp and Craig Spector – were ferocious stylists, with original voices that completely stood out from the crowd.In THIS IS SPLATTERPUNK: THE JOHN SKIPP PRIMER, you'll find 15 of Skipp's most powerful, passionate, unbridled, and influential splatterpunkian short stories, from his early years in Twilight Zone magazine to the present day.Skipp also includes a definitive essay on the history and core elements of the movement – which he defines more as a “spontaneous eruption of the arts” – with additional notes on each story, for context.But mostly, it's about Skipp's unflinching empathy – his ability to put you inside the skins of his characters, make you feel what they feel every speck of the way – that makes THIS IS SPLATTERPUNK: THE JOHN SKIPP PRIMER an essential read for lovers of fearless fiction, and the perfect companion piece to his film.Support this show http://supporter.acast.com/houseofmysteryradio.

On this week's AIPT Comics Podcast, we're joined by writer Zack Kaplan to talk about two ambitious new projects that tap into some of today's biggest anxieties. First up is Only the Savage Are Left, Kaplan's new post-apocalyptic series with Stefano Raffaele, which imagines a world overrun by a virus that transforms people into monsters. During the conversation, Kaplan digs into the moral dilemmas at the heart of the series, the challenge of creating a new kind of monster apocalypse, and why the story's central romance is just as important as its horror. We also discuss The Smart Division, his upcoming AI-driven crime thriller with John Pearson, exploring how rapidly advancing technology, generational divides, and questions about institutional trust shaped the book's premise.

What was the starting point for the virus concept, and how did you land on the idea that the “cure” is tied to killing another infected person? There's an early suggestion in the book that civilization didn't collapse because people failed to work together, but because they turned on each other. How much of this story is meant to reflect real-world anxieties about how fragile social order really is? You've described the idea that “civilized society is a failed experiment.” How does that philosophy shape Ryder's journey, especially as someone who begins the story outside that cycle of violence? Ryder starts off relatively sheltered, living behind a wall and seemingly untouched by the infection. What interested you about telling a story through a character who hasn't yet been forced to compromise his morality? The relationship that pulls Ryder out into the world feels central to the emotional core of the book. How did you approach balancing that love story with the brutality of the setting? Without spoiling too much, how does the virus actually work on a thematic level? Is it purely biological, or is it also meant to represent something more psychological or societal? As Ryder encounters other survivors and “monster-killers,” how do you approach defining who the real monsters are in this world? Shifting to The Smart Division, the idea of an AI being involved in a “perfect murder” is chillingly plausible. What kind of real-world advancements in AI or predictive tech inspired this story? The pairing of a Gen-Z savant and a veteran FBI agent feels like a classic odd-couple dynamic. What makes that contrast especially interesting in a story about artificial intelligence and crime? Fun one: if you had to survive in the world of Only the Savage Are Left, what's your strategy in the first 24 hours… and are you making it out alive?

So when the police find tracks leading to a diner, they enter with a bit of anxiety: is one of the people in this establishment a visitor from another planet? The bus driver swears that he picked up 6 passengers, and yet there are 7 in the room--8 if you count the cafe owner. There's a mystery to be solved. And when lights start to blink, jukeboxes start playing on their own, and bowls of sugar exploding for no reason at all, things are starting to get serious.This week we're taking a look at the Twilight Zone episode "Will the Real Martian Please Stand Up."

Since Mic sometimes mentions the Twilight Zone episode titled "The Shelter" for it's Only-For-Us prepper trope, he figured it was time to actually take a DoomCast look at it. Mic, Jeff, and Brian re-watched the episode (Season 3, episode 3, October 1961) as a refresher. They identify timeless prepper realities -- like you can't prepare for everyone, and some of the psychology in mob mentality in Rod Serling's screenplay.   Watch: The Shelter on Tubi (for free) Keep the Doom coming!

Can the past be changed, or are we forever prisoners of the moments that shaped us? Today we're diving into two classic Twilight Zone tales that wrestle with the tantalizing, terrifying idea of time itself, exploring what we might do with a second chance and whether tampering with history carries a price we can never fully calculate. "Back There" follows a man mysteriously transported to 1865, desperately trying to prevent Lincoln's assassination. "Once Upon a Time" sends Buster Keaton's bumbling 1890s janitor hurtling into the chaotic present. Both episodes ask the same haunting question: if you could rewrite history, would the universe even let you?   Connect with Entering the Fifth Dimension: Facebook community Follow us on Twitter Contribute Listener Feedback

Meanwhile, Kenny Atkinson claimed they analytically won two of their first three games, Anthony Volpe's two-run single won it for the Yankees, the Mets dropped their fourth straight to the Reds, and three Astros pitchers combined for a no-hitter.
