MONSTER PARTY GETS FLOORED! JAMES GONIS, SHAWN SHERIDAN, LARRY STROTHE, and MATT WEINHOLD, take on a topic that literally puts a "lift" in their spirits. Push the button for terror, as MONSTER PARTY asks the question, "Is it an... ELEVATOR OR HELLAVATOR?!!!" The elevator is one of the most signifcant inventions of the modern age. But everytime you get on board a car, isn't there always a little voice in the back of your mind that says, "I don't trust this thing." Well, when it comes to a certain sub-genre of genre films, your fears are more than justified. In this episode, we'll discuss the many flavors of horror that the elevator has provided us in film and tevelsion. From satanic scenarios in films like, DEVIL, THE OMEN II, and VAULT OF HORROR, classic moments from THE SHINING, DAWN OF THE DEAD, and BLADE RUNNER, to offbeat entries like WILLY WONKA & THE CHOCOLATE FACTORY, THE LIFT and DR. TERRIBLE'S HOUSE OF HORRIBLE, there seems to be no shortage of ominous "Otis" inspired thrills.  We also take a look at real life elevator horror story with connections to the film DARK WATER and the urban legend/creepypasta inspired pastime called, THE ELEVATOR GAME. Uggh! It's enough to make you take the stairs. In fact, for God's sake... TAKE THE STAIRS!

Summer colds are the worst! Why do we have colds in the summer anyways? Uggh wish we didn't. Please see Transformers and The Flash. They were both pretty good. Blue Bunny ice cream really is the hype. Am I becoming an ice cream snob? I think so. Sam's baby shower was so much fun that it make me excited to have one of my own, some day. On book #2 of the ACOTAR series and can't get enough, but the book are huge! I swear each one goes up 200 pages. Sarah J. Maas can write! Hops Game was so much fun! We want to go to more.

Hello everyone, Let's talk about responsibility today. What a heavy topic! Uggh.. But I'm gonna make it lighter. Listen. There is a big phenomena out there, we all know it: The law of attraction. And we read the book. Did you read the book? The "Secret"? Well I did. And then, I was like "Well, this sounds so easy and so simple. You just think about it, put it out to the universe and boom! The universe brings it all to you. Hmmm...??? Not really... Because the law attraction and the book "Secret" is actually missing a very big element in the process which is the mindset of responsibility and that's exactly what I want to talk about today. I have 3 reasons why you need to first be responsible and own on your own life before going into that mindset of flow and asking the universe to do its magic in your life. If you're ready, let's go!

Mama,Have you ever resented how much work it takes to lose weight? Have you thought to yourself, “Why is this so hard for me?” “Why do I have to work so hard to be healthy?” These thoughts are completely normal! Healthy eating is simple, but it's not necessarily easy. I say this all the time, but it's so true! Losing weight is about the food, but it's not really about the food! If you want to go from stuck and frustrated to happy and hopeful about your weight loss journey, then you have to focus on more than just the food!‌Most mamas know what is healthy and what isn't. You know that cookies and cake aren't good to eat every day, but you do it anyway. You sit down on the couch after a long day of mommin' and working and cleaning and doing ALL the things and you accidentally pound a whole bag of chips, a few rows of Oreos or a pint of ice cream.‌And you don't know why. You didn't intend to eat all the food! It just happened.‌The truth is that you didn't eat the food because your body needed the nourishment that only chips, Oreos and ice cream can provide. Your body was seeking comfort - an emotional response - and junk food filled that need.‌Your problem isn't the food you're eating, as much as it's WHY you're eating that food. Eating has become an emotional response, or escape, for you. That's why all the diets in the past haven't worked for you! They didn't address the emotional or mental aspects of your weight gain.‌The trick to going from frustrated to hopeful again in your weight loss is changing how you talk about yourself and your journey.How you talk to yourself is the trick to losing weightWords play an enormous role in our world. They literally make or break our success, but we rarely pay attention to them.‌I want you to think about your encounters with food today. What thoughts did you have about food?‌Did you think:Uggh, I have to make breakfast for the kids.I hate salads.I do not want to eat that.That doesn't sound good.I should eat even though I want instead.‌Could you feel the negativity in those thoughts? They brought you down and didn't make you excited at all, right?‌Those types of words are called low vibration words and they don't get you motivated or excited about what you're eating. They make it feel like a chore!Low-vibration words keep you stuckI was talking with my client, Sarah, a few weeks ago, and she expressed to me that she was getting frustrated and annoyed with how hard it was to lose weight. She kept thinking to herself, “Why do I have to do this? Why do I have to pay so much attention to what I put in my mouth?” She wanted to rebel against the systems we had set up.‌I told her that we all have an inner child, or really an inner toddler, and when we're told, “you have to do this. You can't do that.” our inner toddler goes, “wanna bet?” and it starts to throw a tantrum.‌That's because low-vibration words make us feel restricted. Humans crave freedom - just think about how many wars have been fought over freedom! We want to make decisions for ourselves and when we feel restricted our instinct is to rebel.‌Low vibration words look like:I have toI need toI'm supposed to‌These words don't inspire us to do better, so we either stay where we are and feel stuck and frustrated, or worse, they cause us to rebel and go deeper down the hole.Change to higher vibration words to feel excited about your journeyTo get out of those feelings of being stuck and restricted, you need to change the words you're using.‌This doesn't mean you need to pretend that everything is amazing - for example, if you don't enjoy running, and all of a sudden start saying “I love running” it isn't going to make you love it. It's going to feel fake and forced. Instead, you need to gradually move up from low-vibration words to medium-vibration words and then to high-vibration words so that your transformation feels authentic.How to use medium vibration words to progress towards weight lossThe first step in going from low-vibration words to medium-vibration words is to shift the “I have to's” or “I need to's” to medium-vibration words such asI get toI shouldI want to‌If we build on the running example from earlier, you can change “I have to go running” to “I get to go running.” Did you feel that shift? Running no longer sounds like a chore, but an opportunity.‌I talk a lot about being 1% better and this is how you get 1% better! You make a small but achievable shift in how you talk. You're not trying to lie to yourself or trick yourself, you're just reframing things in a way that inspires you to do better.‌Medium vibration words are going to help, but they're not going to make everything better all at once.High vibration words will inspire you to live your best, healthiest lifeAfter you've made the jump from the low vibration to the medium vibration and you've internalized the shift, you will naturally begin to love how you feel and the actions that got you there.‌High-vibration words look like this:I love toI can't wait toI'm excited to‌When you take the time to find what foods and exercises you love, these words come so easy! You start to crave the feeling of feeling good instead of the taste of food or the ease of not working out.‌In that same conversation with my client Sarah, when she was telling me that she was frustrated with all the work that it took to eat healthy, she explained that she and her husband had just finished setting up their home gym and that she was so excited to get out there and start working out.‌And I could hear in her voice the vibration change! She went from “ugh this is so annoying” to “YAY! I'm so excited to start this”‌Working out is difficult, just like eating healthy can be, but the difference between the two difficult things was how Sarah was thinking and talking about them. She used different vibration words and it made all the difference!‌I know all of this can sound a little woo-woo, I used to think so too, but I promise it makes a huge difference. I want to challenge you to start taking notice of the words you're using in regards to your health. Are they low, medium or high-vibration words? And if you're using low or medium words how does it feel to uplevel them to medium or high-vibration words?‌I promise that if you try to uplevel how you speak to yourself, about yourself, or your health that it will make a dramatic difference!‌In my program, Macros Made Easy, I don't just help you make better food choices, I help you understand the connection your mind has to your physical health and we work with the whole mama, the whole you, to improve your health and wellness.‌Schedule a free discovery call to get out of the food and negative self-talk rut you're in and start losing weight and feeling good in your life again.

Uggh. Remember the nineties, when there was no internet porn, so you had to use a seventeen million dollar defense department computer to transform your house into a companion robot? Who's got time for that? When the designer of a boondoggle of a missile defense system accidentally kills three innocent people in a civilian plane during a live fire demonstration he goes bonkers, moves into a cabin abandoning his wife and child and starts working to make this murder computer into a loving wife. This emotional affair starts turning sour when the computer takes over the house, grafts horrible skeletal terminator arms all over the place and tries to murder his wife so it can take over as the replacement mom for his daughter, which leads to a tearful reunion of the estranged lovers. So, if you're having relationship problems, this is one pretty obvious solution.   So Join Matt and Tristan for Homewrecker, the nineties version of Romeo and Juliet, except they're older, they both live at the end, and the only one keeping them apart is a sentient cabin in the woods who's brain was designed to blow up missiles.

After getting into it with my hosting provider - a smaller independent with delusions - I got to thinking, "What if my hosting disappeared tomorrow?" What hellish deluge would find me, clients losing email and sites? Uggh, I don't even want to go there, but I know I have to. That led me to play what-if with everything else I take for granted in my business. "What if I lost my.." Internet, electricity, Google accounts, and so on. Guess what I'll be thining about this weekend. I also realized that the time I spend fixing some tech things might be wasted when I can just buy new stuff. And my 2013 Chromeboook really needs to just go away. --- Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/davey-gets-rich/message

The irony when you search and dream and pretty much BEG for profound connection with others...but that same intensity of longing only pushes people away. Uggh. As a middle-aged male in a society that puts little value on men's need for deeper bonds and friendships, is it any wonder there's a troubling loneliness and mental health epidemic?  All I ever wanted was a 'best friend'. And maybe, just maybe, my prayers were answered...

Elektrisk motorsykkel? Jeg tok med meg opptaker og leverte min 701LR på 20k service. Da benyttet jeg like så godt anledningen til å teste en elmotorsykkel, og prate litt med folk om dette fenomenet. En skikkelig «revolver episode» hvor lyd atter en gang ble en utfordring. Derfor er også deler av opptakene klippet bort, blant annet når jeg snakker om sykkelen når jeg er på Fetsund lenser.

On a scale of 1-10, how happy do you feel about your morning time tempo?0 = I feel drained, overwhelmed, rushed. 10 = I love the pace of my morning.    I found I was at a 3. I didn't make time for myself, I felt rushed while making breakfast and I'd feel overwhelmed by the time I sat down for work. Uggh.  Something needed to change. This episode shares what I did to change my 3 / 10 to a 9 / 10 and guides you through a series of open-ended questions to help you bring more flow into your morning.  Let's get to the heart of the "Morning Overwhelms" and see what we can come up with together!(These questions can help with more than just the morning time. Honing in on a specific time - like the morning in this case - is helpful for making sustainable and realistic changes...And, well, not get overwhelmed even more.) We get into: Feeling drained and judging ourselves Self-sabotage & self-induced stress (Both of which I'm very familiar with!)The real challenges of feeling like we don't have enough timeWhy do I use open-ended questions?Open-ended questions are one of the most powerful types of life tools we can possess; Curiosity expands our view of ourselves and the world around us!Why do I share my stories?Vulnerability is a catalyst for trust and I hope by sharing my personal stories and struggles that you know you are not alone and this is a safe and supportive space for you to be your whole, awesome self.  (Even if you're not sure what your whole, awesome self looks and feels like yet.)In gratitude,Jaime Komer :)www.jaimekomer.com*I invite you to email me directly for your coaching and speaking inquiries at hello@jaimekomer.com.

You either want your employees to have a work/life balance, or you want them to be obsessed with security 24/7. You can't have both. This episode is hosted by me, David Spark (@dspark), producer of CISO Series and Mike Johnson. Our guest this week is Arpita Biswas, (@0sn1s) senior incident response engineer, Databricks Thanks to our podcast sponsor, StackRox StackRox is the industry’s first Kubernetes-native security platform that enables organizations to securely build, deploy, and run cloud-native applications anywhere. The StackRox Kubernetes Security Platform delivers lower operational cost, reduced operational risk, and greater developer productivity through a Kubernetes-native approach that supports built-in security across the entire software development lifecycle. What would you advise? People speak a lot about the importance of integrating security and DevOps. Now it's time to learn some specifics, like how to energize developers to be more security minded in their development. What works? What hasn't worked? "What's Worse?!" You just learned something was breached. Uggh. (Thanks to Mike Toole, Censys) What’s the best way to handle this ? What questions should be asked to see if a security team is cloud incident ready? A good article over on F5 by Sara Boddy, Raymond Pompon, and Sander Vinberg, provides some suggestions such as "Can you describe our attack surface and how have you reduced it to the bare minimum?" and "How are we managing access control?" and "What do we do when systems or security controls fail?" Which of the questions is the most revealing to cloud security readiness and why? Should you ignore this security advice? On the AskNetSec subreddit someone inquired about a good hiring question. One redditor suggested asking "What do you do on your own home network with respect to security?" to which another redditor argued that the question was unfair. He left the security and networking for work. He had other hobbies and interests for home life. Another person said, yes it is unfair, but there are plenty of candidates who do breathe security 24/7 and if given a choice, the redditor would take that person. The politically correct thing to say is you want the person with the work-life balance, but wouldn't we be more impressed with the person who has security in their blood day and night? Close your eyes and visualize the perfect engagement Another question on AskNetSec subreddit asked "What are the most important skills you see missing among other coworkers or your team?" The two most common answers I saw on the thread were communications and critical thinking. Are these correct. or should something else go there? ? And if those two did improve, what would be the resulting effect to a company's security program?

SHOW #539 If You Want A Little Bang In Your Yin Yang Come Along! Aren't we all totally DONE with this shelter in place stay at home quarantine life crap? Uggh! Let's see what the psychic tarot says about YOUR questions!

Our CLONE WARS celebration rocks on with yet another core cast member from the classic animated series as the great Tom Kane joins us IN THE CANTINA. A fan-favorite for his work as Jedi Master Yoda among other voices, Tom fills us in with killer insight into his career, the voice acting industry and, of course, the return of THE CLONE WARS. As always, Tom brings his fun spirit to RFR, along with a ton of laughs. Sonny from New Orleans checks in with a controversial take on some footage seen in THE RISE OF SKYWALKER Blu Ray documentary “The Skywalker Legacy”, and we continue to analyze Rey’s hardships and challenges in The Sequel Trilogy, including her “Uggghhh” moment in Ep IX. Plus, Jason spooked his kid with Indiana Jones movies , we talk about the ever-delayed INDIANA JONES V, and Jedi Master Samuel L.”Mace Windu” Jackson has an important message for us as we struggle through Quarantine 2020. Keep Calm and Listen to Rebel Force Radio.

MONSTER PARTY CAN'T BE STOPPED! JAMES GONIS, SHAWN SHERIDAN, LARRY STROTHE, and MATT WEINHOLD, make social distancing, VERY social! Due to the current COVID-19 pandemic, MONSTER PARTY has unfortunately been forced into self quarantine. But, being quarantined doesn't mean the fun has to end. That's why we proudly bring you this CDC compliant episode, entitled... QUARANTINE FUNHOUSE!!! Now that you're all being forced to hole up in your various nerd caves, some of you may be looking for ideas on how to overcome your cabin fever. And FYI, it's not by watching the film, CABIN FEVER. Uggh!  With the help of ZOOM remote conferencing, and something we like to call, "pizazz", the MONSTER PARTY gang suggest  numerous activities for avoiding monster kid boredom. We could provide you with some examples right here, but then that would spoil some of the white hot excitement this episode has to offer. NOTE: Since we recorded this using ZOOM and headset mics, the sound quality of this podcast is not quite at the level of a typical episode. But despite the technical limitations, we have done our best to bring you all humor, enthusiasm, info, and personal attacks you've come to expect from MONSTER PARTY! STAY HEALTHY MONSTER PARTIERS!

Your staff is going to do whatever they can to either tune out or get out of this annual compulsory exercise. This week’s episode of CISO/Security Vendor Relationship Podcast was recording in front of a live audience at athenahealth in Watertown, Massachusetts. The recording features me, David Spark (@dspark), producer of CISO Series, my guest co-host, Taylor Lehmann (@BostonCyberGuy), CISO, athenahealth, and guest Marnie Wilking, global head of security & technology risk management, Wayfair.

Thanks to this week's podcast sponsors, Check Point and Skybox Security. It's no secret that today's cyber attacks are targeted and sophisticated. Leaving even one point of entry vulnerable to a cyber attack endangers your entire organization. Check Point created the Secure Your Everything Resource Center to help you develop a comprehensive approach to prevent cyber attacks. At Skybox, we remove complexities from cybersecurity management. By integrating data, delivering new insights and unifying processes, we help you control security without restricting business agility. Our comprehensive solution unites security perspectives into the big picture, minimizes risk and empowers security programs to move to the next level. On this week's episode Pay attention, it’s security awareness training time Jinan Budge of Forester finished a report on security awareness training programs. She found a trend that supported both the need for compliance and the need to actually train employees to be more security aware. We discuss what actually works to get people to be more aware of cybersecurity. What do you think of this vendor marketing tactic? At RSA, I talked to a vendor who told me about their new solution. It was so unique that Gartner was creating a new category for their product with yet another acronym. UGGH, another category for which you have to educate the market? And now you have to convince buyers to create a new line item for this category? And now what is that going to do to your marketing budget? It didn't take much convincing for me to point out that their product was just third-party risk management. Admittedly, cybersecurity professionals love the new and shiny, but where do we draw the line about learning something new in cybersecurity and adding confusion to the marketplace? It's time to play, "What's Worse?!" Two rounds, lots of debate. Where does a CISO begin? When we hear about digital transformation, it is being done for purposes of speed, accuracy, and business competitiveness. Scott McCool, former CIO at Polycom was on our show Defense in Depth, disputed the common notion that security serves the business. Instead, he believes that security IS the business. And if you deem that to be true, then security can no longer can take a consultative role. It must take the role of brand and value building. This is more than just a discussion of "shifting left." What are actions that security must take to make it clear that they are part of making the business fast, innovative, and competitive? Um... maybe you shouldn't have done that We tell talks of the worst proof of concept (POC) efforts. Audience question speed round We close out the show with a series of quick answers to audience questions.

On this episode, James keeps on topic better than Chris or I ever possibly could. You want to talk about two little girls stabbing another little girl almost to death? But you came to the right place! Yay! 

Whatever happened to predictability? As long as we've got each other, you'll have a new episode every Friday. This week's episode is about nothing. Well, not nothing, sitcoms and comedies to be more accurate. So grab your Hogan Family and see how well you do with television comedy in any form. Uggh........bazinga.

On this episode, we talk about how THE LAST AIRBENDER is a hot pile of bleh, we talk about how the show was so much better, bad acting, the problem with Adaptations that don't...adapt, and moving cross country!

Uggh, “fleshing it out” equal parts gross, hard work and suggestive! What a weird way to express the idea that we are giving this podcast project life by defining and refining what it is and why we do it. This week we meet “Chopper Dave in the Morning”, Babe learns to play a Radiohead song, and people watching gets next level at the Cursive show.

The day has finally come for 3BG to talk about the Grand Tour. Uggh blow me...I'm sorry folks but we really didn't want to talk about Dragonball GT. Akira Toriyama was happy to get the check from Toei but wasn't a fan of how they used his creation. But we had to do this, we need to move on to doing the Dragonball series and later on Dragonball Super. Which btw, DBS pretty much erases a lot of what GT was trying to do. And in some cases it did the same and did better. So as you can see, we're gonna give this show a fair shot.....nah.  Like us on Facebook/Join our Facebook Group/Follow us on Twitter  Theme by Cxdy called Star Trek Ending by Cxdy called LIFTOFF Don't forget to leave a comment!!!

+++ LIKE THE PLAGUE +++ There are a number of precautions I take to avoid certain things in life such as the spread of germs. I hate it when I'm in a crowded space and someone lets out a huge sneeze and not cover their mouth. They'll put their head to the side or face down towards the ground as if the ground or space is going to absorb their germs. Uggh! Disgusting! Do you feel that way too? When that happens I try to quickly cover my nostrils. Like my attempt to avoid acquiring someone else's germs, leaders need to make every attempt to avoid these following 7 behaviors. In full transparency, these are taken from an article my friend Brigette Hyacinth posted on her LinkedIn page. Here's the link to the full article if you are interested. In this episode, you'll hear how these behaviors can have an enormous impact, in a negative way, on any organization. These are complete deal breakers: Micromanaging Picking favorites Taking credit for employees' work or successes. Ignoring feedback - Not listening Leaders who don't Listen Not standing up for employees Overworking employees. Overlooking or not recognizing employees' contributions. Please share this episode with one other person and leave a comment on the platform through which you listen to this show and/or on social media. Thanks so much. And remember, you are ONE SKILL AWAY... P.S. The new Facebook Group is opened for leaders who want to succeed where others failed and become the leader everyone loves and wants to follow.

Not sure what the name of this one refers to... I see the metamorphosis. That definitely happened. There were aliens I guess. But not sure what the factor was. They were making aliens, so maybe it was supposed to say "The Alien FACTORY". That makes some sense. Plus, it opens up great marketing opportunities. You could have a tie in with The Cheesecake Factory. "Metamorphosis : The Cheesecake Factory". Uggh. I just look at a Cheesecake Factory and I have a metamorphosis. Mondays right? Plus, trying on swimsuits? ACK! What was I talking about? Oh yeah. This movie. The monster definitely isn't a giant penis. Now I want cheesecake. Anyway, grab your favorite Boglin, hire a couple goons, and cozy up to the best movie to ever star a monster that is totally not a giant penis, Metamorphosis : The Alien Factor.  

When you start something new, you're excited, hopeful, and full steam ahead. But how long does that last before the energy fizzles? We discuss many ways to stay consistent towards your target. Even if you only use one of these methods, you'll get further than you normally do.

  När tog egentligen människan sina första steg? Egentligen? Var det när de första Hominiderna klängde i träden, när Neandertalarna tog sats med sina spjut eller när någon forskare tyckte att man skulle kalla dåvarande Etiopiens invånare för Homo Sapiens? Nåväl, i vilket fall så skedde människans intåg under stenåldern och det är dit vi beger oss i detta avsnitt! Hur har egentligen denna era av människans utveckling skildrats i popkulturen? Medeltidsvurmaren Fredrik Fornänger och strategi & krigsexperten Patric Hjelm analyserar, med hjälp från litteraturproffset Jonas Larsson, denna något bortglömda era! Kan man verkligen återuppleva stenåldern genom dagens brädspel? Varför dammsuger Fred Flinta med en mammut? Är ”Joe & Mac: Caveman Ninja” det bästa tv-spelet som utspelar sig på stenåldern? Frågorna är många och svaren likaså! Vi blandar dessutom in lite Batman och Snövit för att krydda det hela lite extra! Så häng med Geekpodden på en tidsresefärd 2 miljoner år bak i tiden!

Hey Sober on Purpose Peeps - this is just a silly extra.  Everything has slowed down since my silly dirt bike crash!  Uggh nothing broken but my left hand won't work right.   See more about it on Instagram!  I am having the boxer dog type from now on!

Episode available on CISO Series blog (https://cisoseries.com/no-shirt-no-security-no-merger/) Sure, we'd like to merge with your company but geez, have you looked at your security posture lately? Uggh. I don't know if I could be seen in public with your kind let alone acquire your type. We're wary as to who wants to enter our digital home on this week's episode of CISO/Security Vendor Relationship Podcast. This show, like all the previous ones is hosted by me, David Spark (@dspark), founder of Spark Media Solutions and Mike Johnson. Our guest this week is Mark Eggleston (@meggleston), vp, chief information security and privacy officer, Health Partners Plans. Thanks to this week's sponsor, Praetorian As a professional services company, Praetorian helps enterprise customers solve complex cybersecurity problems. We are the security experts. On this week's episode How CISOs are digesting the latest security news Good cybersecurity hygiene is critical not just to mitigate breaches but also the valuation of a company, especially during a merger or acquisition. Itzik Kotler, co-founder and CTO of Safe Breach, notes that back in 2016 the Verizon acquisition price of Yahoo was lowered nearly $350 million after Yahoo disclosed data breaches that had happened up to two years earlier. Kotler said, "The problem is cybersecurity risk from mergers and acquisitions perspective should not be about what has happened, but about what vulnerabilities are being introduced and what could happen as a result." Why is everybody talking about this now? An interesting question on Quora asked, "Do you regret working in cybersecurity?" Do our CISOs ever regret? Why do people regret? "What's Worse?!" We have a challenge that pits securing old and new technology. Ask a CISO Eric Rindo just graduated with his MS in Cybersecurity. He has a certification, but zero experience. He's looking for his first InfoSec opportunity. For a CISO, what's attractive about a candidate like Eric? What do you think of this pitch? What happens when you pitch something CISOs already have?

Call this podcast Up In Smoke, Credit Union Style.The more formal moniker: Cannabis and Credit Unions: The Opportunities and Risks, Part 1.That's right. There is also a Part 2 because there just is so much to report about cannabis and financial institutions.In Part 1, you will hear from a couple lawyers, a cannabis lobbyist, a pair of credit union consultants, and more.Why the hubbub about a little weed? For one, a commonly tossed around market size estimate is $50 billion in the US and much of that is unbanked cash.For two, there are big differences between state laws regarding cannabis and federal.  In two thirds of the states cannabis is legal - either for medical uses or, in some cases such as California and Colorado, for any use. That's right. Recreational use is legal in some states.And yet marijuana remains illegal in federal law.There's the sticking point.Pragmatically speaking, few oppose medical use of marijuana. But many still oppose recreational use of it.So what happens if the federal government comes in and arrests a bunch of credit union employees for drug trafficking?Don't say it can't happen because it could.Is it probable?Right now credit union executives are wrestling with exactly such questions.Answers don't come easily.Know this however: around 110 credit unions now have marijuana related businesses as members.The core argument for doing this is that it's good for the community.  It takes cash off the streets and it also helps small, local businesses stabilize.The only downside is that marijuana remains illegal in federal law.Uggh.There's the dilemma. A credit union can do a lot of good by plunging into the marijuana business. But it also may be risking all.Thus this podcast series.  There may be no knottier problem for credit unions than marijuana.There is information to know and that's what we are delivering.  In a two part series.In Part 1, you will hear a range of viewpoints.  Listen to the end so you hear all the perspectives. It's a 45 minute podcast but the content is richIn Part 2 you will hear in some depth from the Connecticut Credit Union League, which is helping its members serve marijuana businesses, and also Safe Harbor, started by credit union veteran Sundie Seefried to help financial institutions serve the needs of marijuana businesses.And then what will you decide to do? Listen up to make smart choices.Listen to Part 1, the must hear podcast on cannabis and credit unions. Find out how you can help sponsor this podcast here.

This episode is all about why men become possessive and behave in ways that make you think that you are headed towards a relationship or that you are in a relationship when it’s not what they want. It’s also about women who convince themselves that a relationship exist when it doesn’t! Let’s chat!!

SHOW #272 The Dangers of Socialists, Marxists, and other Narcissistic Sociopathic IDIOTS! Uggh, these assholes are on the RISE again, but we are on the FOREFRONT of telling you the TRUTH about these imbeciles who only want to STEAL, KILL, and DESTROY your life, your liberty, and your pursuit of happiness! ENJOY!

Security is suffering from a serious Rodney Dangerfield "I get no respect" problem. What has often been seen as the department of "no" is struggling under that brand image. That's probably because security is often seen as an inhibitor rather than an enabler. If InfoSec wants to fix that perception, it'll be their responsibility to dig themselves out. Here's what you'll hear on the latest episode of the CISO/Security Vendor Relationship Podcast: Nobody thinks security is their friend: How can security rid itself of this highly negative branding? Be problem solvers vs. problem creators. Techniques to integrate AppSec into the DevOps process: It comes down to measurement, respecting an engineer's time, and learning from the success of one process and putting it into another. Read more great insight by Chris Steipp of Lyft. We play "What's Worse?!" In this episode of the game we question the worst scenario of an encrypted or unencrypted laptop, but with qualifications. Uggh, WAFs are NOT magical boxes: In a round of "Please, Enough. No, More." we challenge the way web application firewalls (WAFs) are being sold. WAFs need to be more friendly and flexible. No one believes you if you sell them as magical boxes that stop all attacks. How can you be a great customer? We turn the tables from "Ask a CISO" to "Ask a Vendor" and ask what it takes to be a great customer. Vendors would like you to ttop kicking the tires and talk about solving real problems. Plus a ten-second security tip: It may be cliche, but if security departments want to be more effective, they should be moving away from blocking to enabling. Special thanks to Signal Sciences for sponsoring this episode. If you’re using WAFs, make sure you read “Three Ways Legacy WAFs Fail,” by their head of research, James Wickett.

Fantastic Four return! Sexy Pig Girl makes her second appearance, it is hot enough in here to melt steel. Plus, other comics that are good. 

Uggh! Why is it that whenever we talk about Anthropology lately, it’s so depressing? Good news! Today, we flipped the page. Sure we all deserve and have earned a frightful death sentence – after all, the wages of sin is death. Pastor Steve Pierson leads our most excellent convo, assuring us that God doesn’t abandon us – he’s redeemed us! And what a glorious gift that is!

Listen now: Shannon DeJong is the CEO of House of Who, an art house and agency based in Oakland, California, whose clients include Google, among others. Outside of her naming expertise, Shannon is an artist, speaker, and podcast host: she hosts ArtistCEO, where she uses her story to talk about how business and art can work together. Shannon's also worked at Salt, an independent branding agency in San Francisco. She's worked at Logitech, and also HP, where she was global naming manager.  Toward the end of my conversation with Shannon, she describes what she was like as a kid: "a very mercurial, precocious little thing...[that] would bounce around and just talk and talk and talk" [27:16] You can still hear that kid come through in the enthusiasm and energy she brings to this episode. We kicked things off talking about her approach to name generation, in which Shannon starts out as a hummingbird, flitting from idea to idea. Later on, she turns into a drill, when she's more thorough and exhaustive. In the hummingbird phase, Shannon's quick to get out of her chair and go outside, sometimes driving for miles to find the right setting for creative inspiration. Shannon lists some tools* she uses, such as: A dictionary (ideally the Oxford English Dictionary) OEDonline Dictionary.com ("not the best dictionary...[but] often it gives me that base of synonyms that I start from") Synonym.com Online Etymology Dictionary Google Google Images OneLook We also talked about how to get past writer's block, for which Shannon shared the "Stupid Rule" and the "10-minute Rule" [15:24]. Lastly, Shannon gave her perspective on "brand truth" [21:20], and says the reason she loves being a namer is that "for just these few hours, I get to create an entire world" [26:26].

Rob: Shannon, thanks for taking the time to chat. Shannon: My pleasure. Good to be here. Rob: Let's zero in on name generation. So, you get a naming brief, you sit down to start generating names. Walk me through what you do next. Shannon: Well, I am a bit of a hummingbird when it comes to creative. The very first thing I do is just read and absorb and listen, letting it kind of sink in, because sometimes it's the stuff that I wouldn't hear on first blush or the nuance of what the client is saying or not saying that ends up proving to be a really fruitful area. You know if someone's like, "Here's the brief; we want it to be about connectivity and speed," you're like, "All right, network, hive, bee, prism, nexus, fast, cheetah pounce, run, paw." Y'know, it's like, that's great. And, once that has run out, the place that's gonna be sweet, where it's going to be truly helpful to the client and where the client could not maybe have gone on their own, is to think about the subtlety of what they're asking for and the subtlety of what the right answer could be. Especially now with the world—everything, brands, naming, trademarks—being so cluttered, it's really about these little teeny slivers of space, whether it's creative space, strategic space, where there's going to be something truthful and effective and clear. So, I like to just do a lot of receptive work first, especially because naming is such a generative, productive act. Rob: So, talk to me a little bit more about interrogating the brief. Is there anything you can point to that that works? Shannon: Yeah, I mean, I guess broadly I just want to ask every question until I have no questions left and I'm sitting there on the call or looking at the brief going, "Ok, Ok, I guess there's nothing left to do but start naming." Like, if I have any question at all in my head, even if it's a playful one or a curious one, like, "Hey this maybe doesn't have anything to do with naming, but how did this company start?" And then I think, practically, I will interrogate a brief or dissect it by just making sure the strategy is watertight. You know, the number one factor for success in any naming project is the strategy. It's always about making sure that you're clear what the ask is and what this name is going to do for you. So, I will always look a brief through and through and just know that there are those different pieces that I know need to be covered. I have to be very clear on what the brand—the master brand or the product brand—is about, the positioning must be ultra-clear. One thing that I find really helpful is coming back to the simplicity of this particular exercise, which is just a small part of branding writ large. It's a very important part. It's an essential part. But just reminding everyone, hey this is a name. There's a lot of other things that the brand is going to be. What do you need the name to do? Rob: Well let's talk about a hypothetical. I don't know how often this really happens, but let's pretend that you've been given a perfect brief. Where do you start, any process or steps that you follow consistently? Shannon: Oh yeah. Now the fun begins. I think my number one thing that I always do—so I mentioned I'm a bit of a hummingbird and then other times I act like a drill... Rob: And explain what you mean by those two metaphors just so that I'm clear. Shannon: Yeah, sure. As a hummingbird I like to give myself permission to...so creatively, I think I need to be able to flit from idea to idea. So, when I first sit down, I really like to give myself a ton of freedom, even though later on I will be more thorough and more exacting and I will make sure that I've covered my bases, and what am I missing, and where can I mine? And that's when the drilling comes in. The initial phase for me is always one of freedom and following the thread wherever it goes. It's organic, it's potentially disorganized. It's kind of like a little kid with a bunch of sugar who just wants to like, run around like, "Oh ooh, what's this over here? Oh, look at that! Oh, look it's a kitten. Oh, Mommy, can I have another..." You know, it's like I let myself do that because I know that that's where a lot of the creative wisdom is. And at the very least, even if that initial flush of naming doesn't produce names that are going to be viable, because like I said, the way the brain works you're going to have to be recycling and going over lots of synonyms and things that maybe aren't the quote unquote "diamond in the rough," that's where you get the volume. That's where you get the quantity, at least for me. I should say, I get the quantity and the volume and the breadth and inspiration and the curiosity, so I can cover a lot of ground if I just let my mind flit from beautiful little idea to beautiful little idea. Rob: And just to be clear, how are you, in practical terms, how are you working at this point? Are you often on a whiteboard or working with Post-It Notes or are you in software of some sort? Shannon: Great question. I would say that, well, first of all, I would say even my method is a little hummingbird-like in I also follow wherever the impulse is in terms of how to work. So, in the first several hours I really do just follow however I want to work. I start totally on impulse. It's like, have I been sitting at my computer all day and I'm just now getting to it? Well, opening up an Excel spreadsheet, while it can be very helpful later on with organizing, right now is going to just kill my creative mojo. So, why don't I grab a pen and paper and my running shoes and walk outside and go for a walk? I mean, I have even driven before an hour away to a beautiful setting. Especially when it's a particular kind of project and I need you know more tranquil, kind of open, expansive ideas and given myself physical space and physical beauty in order to start unleashing. Other times, I work a lot in just good old Word or good old Google Docs or a text doc. Increasingly now, I have, when I have a limited amount of time, I actually will start in Excel because anytime you take your pen and paper and you go out into nature, it takes longer. But I would say that I love starting with pen and paper. That's always a great way to start because you know that no matter what you're going to be ending up back at a machine. Rob: And I'm just curious, when you when you do wander off into nature with a pad, you don't you don't have Wi-Fi access when you're doing this? Shannon: Correct. Yeah, absolutely. That's part of the genius, I think, is that, to totally disconnect. I'd like to give myself a chance to see what I can do without any influence. I guess I should say without any digital influence. Because I think once I start getting into using—and there are a lot of great tools out there and they're absolutely essential, you know dictionaries and thesauruses and I think there's something called OneLook, and Wordnik, and Wikipedia, not even for words but just for ideas and how are certain concepts related to other concepts. These are all great. And for me that's more like middle process or it or toward end of the generation process when I'm starting to slow down a little bit from my raw creative fire. I think the best stuff has come from when I'm actually just sitting back a bit. And sometimes I physically do this. I sit back from the computer, I sit back from my desk, maybe I don't even have a pen and paper and I just... It's kind of that like shower moment, that lightbulb moment of, "Hold on, hold on, let me take a break from trying to generate 20 words a second and just go back to that initial listening and thinking. It's a very important step because sometimes I have had that moment and it's like, "Oh, that's the name." Like you just had this moment you're like, "That's it. Yes!" And you know that it's probably not it. Rob: Or it's not available. Shannon: Or it's not available. Yeah, usually that's the next thought. I think I need to have a feeling of, oh, I've had several moments like that, where I just go, "Yes, oh yes!". Rob: You've brought up timing. How do naming projects go for you from a timing standpoint and what's the ideal? Is it to have a huge block of time in front of you or do you like to work in little sprints? Shannon: Well, the ideal timeline is one that is two weeks for creative work where I have the opportunity to try out a lot of different modes. No matter what, at some point, I need to have a long block of time and that long block of time is always relative to the timeline and size of the project. So, if it's a quick little name list that I'm helping another agency with a long block of time might be two-to-four hours. I mean, that might feel like a good amount of time to sink in. I do feel like the minimum amount of time total is four hours. Like, I feel like it's after the four hours is when you can really get to some good stuff. And then you do hit a wall and you're like, "Ok, I need to refresh." Rob: Let's talk about tools. You mentioned a few but I'd love to just get a list from you, if you have it off the top of your head, of online or offline tools that you like to have handy for every project or maybe there are some that you find you only use once in a blue moon. Shannon: Sure, yeah. I have to admit, while I'm always on the search for new tools, I kind of I kind of feel a little boring or old school because as of yet I haven't found a tool that's better than my brain. But, with that said, I definitely use various dictionaries. So, I might have a dictionary here, whether that's a Webster's, ideally you have a full, original OED and you can open up and look through etymologies, but I do not have one of those. I do use, I think it's called OEDonline or Etymology.com [Online Etymology Dictionary, I believe. OneLook. Just, really Dictionary.com. It's not the best dictionary and often weeding through all of the ads and crossword puzzles and whatever I find very distracting, but it works as a tool because often it gives me that base of synonyms that I start from. Like ok, here is "fast," and dictionary.com or synonym.com, they're going to give me a definition and like top-10 synonyms. And then those synonyms, I, using my brain, or my other favorite naming tool, which is just Google, then get inspired to take that synonym and try and find what I call related or extended conceptual synonyms to go from. I also just use Google and the way I use it is I will start, embarrassingly, by just taking words in the brief or in the pathways and just typing them in. Like hey, let's just start. What does the Google brain and what does the world and what does the internet...how do they relate to this word or this pathway that I need to explore? Then I go into, I use a lot just Images, Google Images, and I'll type in various words, whether it's from the brief or even words that I have found that capture some kind of essence, even if it's not the right word. I'll write that into Google Images and then I'll get a visual palette or visual collage of more things that stimulate more thought. Rob: That's a great idea. I love the Google Images idea just to break yourself out of...I mean frankly, you're looking at words a lot when you're doing gaming so it's even just a nice break for the eyes. Is there anything particular that you've found works well for writer's block, so to speak? Shannon: I want to think carefully before I say this because I might jinx myself. I was going to say I don't experience writer's block very often. Maybe more than writer's block, I just get constricted and rigid and I get too narrow in my thinking and it just gets dry. So, I think that's probably my version of it. It's not a full block. But it just sort of is there's no juice anymore. And what I always do then is the Stupid Rule and the 10-minute Rule. The Stupid Rule—I just made these up right now, can you tell I'm a namer? The Stupid Rule is that I have to write down things that are stupid. Like alright, alright, now I want the next ten names, fifty names, to be totally stupid. Like you would never name this that. You would never even show it to the client. You'd be embarrassed to do it, you know? Rob: And the Stupid Rule—I love the name—when you do that...so, I guess it's sometimes it tells you, "Ok, I'm done, because I did this and I feel like I've gotten everything out of my system," essentially? And then other times does it, it spurs another wave? Shannon: Well, I don't think that just feeling like I'm out of ideas is the right feeling for telling me that it's time to stop. Usually that tells me that it's coming up on that first wave or a dry spot and I have to push through it. The 10-minute Rule—to finish up that thought—is just do anything for 10 minutes. If you want to stop after that, ok, then maybe it's not the right time to do it, but most likely you'll get into flow and you'll be on the treadmill and it will just, fwip! And off you go. I think it's absolutely that way with creativity. I mean anything, right, it's "I don't want to do it, I don't want to do it, I don't do it. Ok, 10 minutes, 10 minutes, 10 minutes—oh, this is fun." Rob: So, in that example what are you doing? What are you doing for 10 minutes? I just want to understand, are you doing something naming related for 10 minutes? Shannon: That's it. And maybe you only get 10 minutes of naming right now and then do something else and come back to it. If I'm really feeling blocked or I don't like it I'll just say, "Ok, 10 more minutes. Just do 10 more minutes." You know, I've even done that to myself three times in a row, like "Uggh, I don't want to." "Ok. Hey, hey, how about another 10 minutes? Rob: Making deals with yourself. Shannon: Exactly. Rob: Are there any specific name ideas or naming tropes you know like the "-ly" on the end of all these startup names—is there anything in particular that you're sick of seeing or that you've identified as a trend that you try to steer clear of? Shannon: Well, it's a trend that isn't my favorite but I'm not yet able to steer clear of it because it's so pervasive, but I must say the verbable name is lovely in theory and there's nothing overtly obnoxious about it. But here's what I don't like: I don't like it because people ask for it just because they think that that's going to be a successful name, and I hate to be a broken record but I want to go back to this idea of, "Yeah, but does it make sense strategically?" And I have gotten a lot of that like, "We want it to be one syllable, real word, ideally verbable," which is nice but there's going to be tradeoffs. Rob: To what extent do you think verbability is a real thing, though? Because "Google" is a noun, right? I mean, if anything. Shannon: You know what, Rob, thank you! So is Apple. So is...Uber is an adjective. This is what's so funny, is that I look around I'm like, "How many names are actually..." and people are like, "You know, like Twitter." I'm like, Twitter is not...you don't "Twitter" something. You Tweet it. And I don't know, honestly, if that came from Twitter, the company, the brand itself. But I don't think so. I don't even think that they created their own language. That was done by people. That's the thing, people will do that. This is the nature of language. This is my background: linguistics. I started as a linguist and I love language and the beauty of language. This is why I'm not a prescriptive but a descriptive linguist, which just means languages is alive. Language is organic. And it will extend and bend and twist itself as memes, as trends, as tropes from person to person in this way that is beyond any one individual or brand. Rob: I absolutely agree with you. I think what I hear you saying is that it's not necessarily our decision as the people behind the brand as to whether or not people end up using it as a verb. That's their decision, and one that they'll likely make subconsciously. But then, on top of that, I also think that brands need to be really careful about trying to impose that type of prescriptive language on to consumers or onto their customers because it—aside from it potentially not working—it could also just really backfire in terms of making them look silly. You talk about "brand truth" a lot. I think I saw it on the House of Who website and I believe you give talks about it as well. Can you just explain what brand truth is and how it relates to naming? Shannon: Brand truth is the very simple idea that one, you don't have to be fake in order to succeed. And two, your truth is going to be your most valuable asset. I think that the branding industry and the marketing industry is often known for putting layers on and making things shiny and beautiful and glossy, and there is a time and a place for that. I'm most interested in peeling the layers back and getting to the heart of what is essential. And if you are a business and a brand, there's something truthful about your product, your offering, your culture, and the essence of who you are, and that is going to be your sweet spot. I think that that actually ends up being—especially now with the way the world is going—people want realness. People want to be able to connect with a brand and its truth, in all of its glory, wants it to be whole. And I think in terms of naming it drills down the value of essential information. You get one word, one name, to communicate who you are and hopefully you have a bunch of other brand assets that go along with it. But sometimes you don't, and it's one word that may appear in print, it may be verbal, it may be someone just passing on the street. And I think, in that one name, there should be something really essential about who you are and it should be real. Also, just in terms of the process of naming, we're talking very tactical, you don't have to go to all these fancy bells and whistles and naming trends and what's going to be cool in five years and what's most searchable. All of those things are important to consider because they're realities. But I think in the process of naming, what's most important is to think of something really clear and clean and concise. And I would call that "truthful." We recently worked on Google Home Mini, and that's not a sexy name, necessarily. It's not like, "Oh god, that's so fun, and you just say it and it's like an inside joke, and it's cool, and it's hip." But it's pretty simple and it just makes sense. And it's at the heart of what the thing is. It's a small, cute version of Google Home, and there you have it. So, I kind of feel like people often try too hard when they don't have to. There doesn't have to be anxiety, you don't have to worry like, "Oh god, we have to be super creative, or edgy, or unique, or differentiated." Yeah, those things, sure. That's where your strategy comes in. But when it gets down to naming, I say start with the truth. Rob: Yeah, I often find myself reminding clients that no one will ever think as hard about this name as we're about to do. And try to relieve a little of that pressure and temptation to overthink it. Shannon: I often say to people my secret as a namer is that naming is the most important thing you will ever do for your business, and...it doesn't matter. At some point, get as close as you can and do the best you can, but as long as you—again—as long as you're on strategy and you're communicating what you need to communicate, you're fine. Rob: Well I love that Google Home Mini name. I think it's a good example of a name that's great but you don't realize it is. And the reason for that is, or the way to realize how great it is, is to think of what they could have called it. To think of all the things they might have done and some of the atrocities that other companies have waged upon us with more fanciful attempts to convey what is ultimately a pretty simple message. Shannon: I think when I was younger and new at naming, for a long while I was like, "Oh, I want to get that that perfect name. I want to have on my resume...like I want to have named Twitter!" I want to get something that people hear and they're like, "Oh my god, that's such an amazing name!" and I'd be like, "Yeah, thanks." And at this point I really let that go and I realize that it's far more satisfying to just get a name that's right and just makes sense. And if I never get associated with it, great. And if it does its job, great. Rob: Last question: What is your favorite thing about naming or generating names? Shannon: Oh gosh, I think that it's a little moment to play God. It's like, for just these few hours I get to create an entire world. I mean maybe it's like—I don't have children, and so maybe it's getting to name all of these potential little babies that will grow up and go out into the world, and there's sort of like a maternal pride about giving my creative oomph to something that will live on past me. I think that's part of it. And I think the other part is it satisfies this, like I said, the hummingbird in me. When I was a kid I was a very mercurial, precocious little thing. I was super teeny with shock-white hair and I would bounce around and just talk and talk and talk, and I think at some point, people were just like, "Ok, thank you for the 15 cartwheels and the story about rainbows. But it's time to be quiet now." And I think that energy, that childlike enthusiasm for language and ideas, gets to play when I'm naming and then it gets to saddle up next to, and ride along with, the other part of my brain which then wants to make it all make sense and put it all into a structure and find a place for it in the world. Rob: Shannon, thanks so much for making the time to chat. Shannon: Thank you. This was a lot of fun.

A Day Hike From Boca de Tomatlan to Las Animas Beach Subscribe on iTunes & Leave a Good Review Listen to The Podcast     Hello fellow travelers, welcome this episode of the Puerto Vallarta Travel show. I am your host Barry Kessler and I am just so happy to be to introducing you to [caption id="attachment_194" align="alignright" width="300"] La Palapa, Puerto Vallarta, Mexico[/caption] my favorite vacation destination, and maybe even yours, Puerto That music you were just listing to is performed by Alberto Perez, the owner of the La Palapa Group of Restaurants. Those are La Palapa, The El Dorado Restaurant, and at night for dinner The El Dorado transforms into The Vista Grill. That’s the Vista Grill that used to be up on the hill overlooking the city?  Well now it has a new vista and that is right on the beach where you get the same Vista Grill Menu, and the fantastic Vista Grill service and it’s right there on the beach with a dramatic view of the Los Muertos Pier all lit up at night in beautiful colors. Of course at La Palapa you can enjoy breakfast, lunch or dinner, with your toes in the sand right at the water’s edge. ! It’s so romantic, it’s so Puerto Vallarta my friends! Today we have a special show but first, what’s happening in Puerto Vallarta this week, the 15th of August, 2017. It’s hot and Humid in paradise and if check out the show notes to this episode, you will find a video I got from Puerto Vallarta News and you can see what I’m talking about when I talk about the wild, blow your mind crazy thunder and lightning that accompany these tropical rainstorms in the summer in Vallarta. Check it out. And if you have had a chance to check out the Cuates y Cuetes webcam, you’ll see some great lightning storms in the late afternoons. The Cuates y Cuetes cam is back in action and good to go. It has been unpredictable of late but they seem to have ironed out their issues. Gosh, I wish I could take up a collection from all you guys and buy these guys a super duper HD cam that would shoot in color and be all bitchen and cool and stuff. I mean, wouldn’t that be great. Set them up [caption id="attachment_57" align="aligncenter" width="940"] Puerto Vallarta Web Cams[/caption] with a great strong signal and we could just sit by our laptops and tablets phones, and get our Puerto Vallarta Fix until we return again in person that is. Now the webcam at Langostinos, the one that swivels around at all hours of the day and night takes approximately 1 and a half minutes to make the full rotation. Problem with that webcam is that it’s kinda herkey - jerkey. It sort of dances around and spends way too much time pointing into the restaurant than it used to. The old cam was fixed and shooting out towards the Los Muertos Pier, and it was the best for a sure sunset. But that has changed. Oh well. Guess we ought to be grateful for what we do have. You can find over 12 different webcams stationed all around the Bajia de Banderas at puertovallartatravelshow.com, or pvtravelshow.com for short at the top of the site click the webcam ta and check out what’s going on, on the ground In Puerto Vallarta this summer. Let me tell you. There’s lot’s going on in Vallarta this summer. A hike from Boca de Tomatlan to Las Animas Beach. [caption id="attachment_1314" align="aligncenter" width="1000"] Click Map[/caption] A couple of you listeners have expressed your desire to hear more about day trips and excursions outside of Puerto Vallarta so I thought today we could talk about taking hike. A hike from Boca de Tomatlan to Las Animas Beach. This trip is going to take us south of Puerto Vallarta for a bus ride, a hike, a boat ride back from Las Animas to Boca, and then a bus ride home to Vallarta. You can do the whole thing and even more, or you can do just some of this trip and still have a great time so even if a vigorous hike isn’t in the cards for you, this episode still includes you too because I’m going to tell you how everyone here can have a good time doing all, or even part of this journey. So, let’s get started. What You Will Need Good Hiking Shoes Cotton Clothing A Broad Rimmed Hat Sunglasses Insect Repellant DEET Sunblock A Towel Plenty of Bottled Water Bathing Suit Change of Underwear Camera Money/Pesos for bus/boat/food     Video Of The Hike So first of all, let’s talk about the hike itself. If walking up and down stairs isn’t your thing, you aren’t going to like this hike. Period. Don’t even attempt it. You will [caption id="attachment_1291" align="aligncenter" width="608"] Boca de Tomatlan to Las Animas Trail[/caption] need to be physically fit, not decathlon fit, but you should be someone who gets regular vigorous exercise, if that’s you then you can do this hike. The difficulty also is directly related to the weather conditions and the time of year you are in Vallarta. For example, I did this hike with my wife and twin brother and his wife last October, and well, it didn’t end well. The tropical heat and humidity was just too much for my hiking buddies, and the hike was even a challenge for me, well, maybe I’ll tell you that story in a little bit, but if I forget to get back to that tale, you can read all about it on my website just click the PV Stories tab and scroll down to the story I call “Mutiny on The Playa”.  Maybe I’ll remember to get back to that but back to the hike. The hike, if you are in reasonably good shape will take you anywhere from an hour and a half with short stops for water and rest, up to 2 ½ - 3 hours at a leisurely pace. [caption id="attachment_710" align="aligncenter" width="800"] A Hike From Boca de Tomatlan to Las Animas Beach, or Mutiny on la Playa[/caption] Now if you are staying in town, you should have no problem finding the bus stop. If you’re coming from Nuevo or the Hotel Zone, take a cab into town or a bus if you are savvy enough  to get yourself to the corner of Constitution and Basillio Badillo. The bus stop is on the South East side of the street you will see a couple of orange and white buses lined up that say Mismaloya, Boca de Tomatlan on them, and you will see people lining [caption id="attachment_1316" align="aligncenter" width="1000"] Map of the Mismaloya /Boca de Tomatlan Bus Stop[/caption] up to get on these buses. These buses leave in approximately 15 minute intervals. Now a warning to you all, if you go early in the morning, you are likely to be [caption id="attachment_1331" align="alignright" width="665"] Bus Stop For Mismaloya and Boca de Tomatlan[/caption] competing with many a Mexican on his or her way to work out of the city. My suggestion would be to go after 9 in the morning, but if you are an early riser, you can try out the local flavor. You pick.  The bus ride is going to set you back 8 pesos so be ready for that. Remember, the driver will give you change; just don’t give him a 5oo peso note, or a 200 peso note for that matter either. The best advice I can give is to find a seat on the right side of the bus. That way, you will have a wonderful view of the coastline as you make your way south towards Boca de Tomatlan. The bus will be stopping all along the route. Keep in mind buses will stop, if they can, almost anywhere along the road, and by the way if you find yourself out along the road and need to have a bus stop for you, make sure you’re standing where the bus can stop safely, and point to the ground in front of you, while looking at the driver. According to JR, the bus will stop. Anyway, these buses fill up pretty fast as they make their way along the coast to Mismaloya. They are picking folks up from the hotels, and condos and resorts along highway 200 south, the Carraterra a Barra de Navidad. They stop at Mismaloya, about 30 minutes from PV, in front of the Barcelo Resort, then they move on down the [caption id="attachment_1311" align="alignright" width="300"] Boats at Boca de Tomatlan[/caption] road another 10 minutes to Boca de Tomatlan where the bus will park and let everyone off. When you are coming back, it’s right here that you will find that bus when you head back up north to town. Now once you gather all your belongings, you follow the road down a fairly steep street, all the way down to the new Malecon built along the mouth of the river, the Boca. You’re going to encounter  launcha guys, whanting to know if you want a ride to one of the beaches. These guys are there to whisk riders south of here to Las Animas, Yelapa and other coves and beaches along the coast. So let’s say you aren’t in the mood to hike or you can’t physically handle the hike, you can just have a meal at one of the beachside establishments in Boca, or you can negotiate a price to have the boat take you to Las Animas or Yelapa a little further south or any numberof covesand beaches along the coast beyond and before Las Animas. So you can just hop on a Panga and skip the walk, or you can have a bite to eat, then take that panga ride or you can just head back up the hill, find that Mismaloya bus and take her back to Vallarta, having actually been somewhere other than your hotel. See, I have something here for everyone like I promised. [caption id="attachment_1285" align="aligncenter" width="1000"] Foot Bridge Over the River[/caption]     But hey, you are a brave and sturdy soul, you’re going to take that hike with me right? So let’s go ahead with the trek. By the way, if you just want to go on the hike with me from your barkalounger, I recorded the whole length of the walk, the entire hour and a half plus of the walk and you can find it in the shownotes to this episode of the show, or you can find it by clicking on the Video tab at the top of my website. First things first, whip out your bug repellant and apply it liberally so you don’t get eaten by mosquitos or black flies. You should consider stopping in one of the new bathrooms they built on the new Malecon there in Boca de Tomatlan. Take care of business because, there’s not really any place along the trail where you will get that chance to go potty again till you get to Las Animas, and believe me, that new bathroom on the new malecon in Boca [caption id="attachment_1283" align="alignright" width="300"] Boca de Tomatlan Malecon[/caption] [caption id="attachment_1286" align="alignleft" width="300"] You Walk Right Past People's Homes Right on the Trail[/caption] is nice and clean. You have to pay a nice person at the door I think 5 or 6 pesos to get entrance, complete with a few sheets of toilet paper, but you get a sparkling clean toilet and bathroom to use. Not so much in Las Animas, So take care of business, make sure you have your water and you walk up the river a short distance until you see a bridge crossing the river. Along the way, to your left you will see where they are doing lots of building. They are building shops and what they hope to become a nice shopping area along the Malecon there. There is a sign post at the bridge with a number of colorful signs pointing across the bridge to Las Animas and Colomitos. There are usually some horses tied up near the bridge. You follow the signs across the bridge and you take a right, and start walking. The trail [caption id="attachment_1328" align="aligncenter" width="741"] Sign Post at the Foot Bridge[/caption] then proceeds to follow the bank of the river, working it’s way up as you walk up steps built into the path, actually you walk right past the front doors of houses built along the Boca. I kinda feel a little funny walking past the houses here because you get the feeling that you are just walking through their front yards and their front porches. It just feels a little weird, but to them, they are used to it. The path is marked pretty well but it’s a good idea to pay close attention as to where you’re going. It’s not hard to make a wrong turn, I mean, eventually, if you do make a wrong turn you will figure it out pretty quickly. Just backtrack and you will be just fine. This part of the hike along the mouth of the river really takes some time. Eventually you will reach a platform built for hikers to take in the sights of the boca and the beach you left behind. You can watch the pangas coming and going in and out of the Boca from this vantage point. It’s not a bad place to sit down and have a sandwich if you brought one. Have a drink, take some pictures, then head back up the trail.  As you get closer to the mouth of the Boca, that sounds stupid. Boca means mouth in Spanish. Okay so as you head up to the mouth of the mouth, never mind, you take the trail up inland cutting through the jungle, hiking up and down steps and stairs, the steepest parts even have built-in handrails to help us hikers climb those steep stairs [caption id="attachment_1266" align="alignright" width="300"] Steep Stairs[/caption] easier. Actually, it’s a pretty nice trail. Now the paths, which for the most part, depending on the time of year are pretty well marked, sometimes seem to disappear and you might need to stop and make sure you didn’t make the wrong turn. But just in case you do happen to slip up, every now and then you will encounter a rock or signpost marked Los Animas or Colomitos to help keep you on track. The Trail finally descends pretty steeply down to the first beach, Colomitos beach, home to the famous Ocean Grill Restaurant. This beach is beautiful. It’s not too big though and if you happen to hit this place on a busy hiking day, it may feel even a little tight. Over to your right as you descend to the beach, you’re going to see the Ocean Grill built into the cliffs. There’s also a raft, disguised as an island bobbing around out in front of the restaurant. It’s not for you. It’s for the folks eating in the restaurant so if you’re going to go for a swim, stay off. And just a warning to those of you Aquatians out there who can’t pass up a dip in the ocean; if you plan on continuing with your hike from here, do yourself a favor and change out of your wet bathing attire and dry off and put on dry clothes, before proceeding on your hike. You will get chaffed something awful if you don’t. Just a little warning to you from ma Kessler here. Bring a bathing suit if you plan on getting in the surf boys and girls. [caption id="attachment_1272" align="alignright" width="300"] Colomitos Beach[/caption] Now I need to tell you about the Ocean Grill. For starters, if you’re thinking hey I hiked in here, I think I’ll just have a bite to eat at the restaurant. Well gotta warn ya now, it aint happening. They won’t feed or water you here folks unless you have a reservation No reservation,  sa cha! Sorry Charlie. By the way, in case you are wondering, it’s pretty difficult to get a same day reservation at the Ocean Grill. Sometimes you need to plan an entire week out f you’re coming in high season. Check out their website if you don’t believe me. In fact; All reservations are made on line where they require a deposit. When you get on-line you get a choice of three seating times. You have the option of taking one of their private Pangas from Boca de Tomatlan to the Ocean Grille, or you can take that strenuous walk that I just described to you. If you do take the hike, make sure you have plenty of time to make that walk before serving time. Just saying! Maybe a 40-45 minute hike to Colomitos Beach. Anyway, a couple of items about the Ocean Grill, the owner has a Great Dane named Wilson. Wilson spends his days on the beach with the guests, and I have to say, that I never have had a chance to meet the grand Dane of the Ocean Grill, but I’m sure the 2 foot high dump I sidestepped on the beach undoubtedly belonged to Mr. Wilson. What a dog!   [caption id="attachment_1268" align="alignleft" width="300"] Colomitos Beach[/caption] The food at the Ocean Grill is excellent as are the tropical drinks they serve. So a trip to The Ocean Grill is an adventure all to itself and when I get a chance, I intend on doing a podcast from the Ocean Grill this winter. So, you could make that reservation a few days before the hike and walk in to the Ocean Grill, Eat and continue on, or just take their boat back to Boca after a swim in the cove and a bob on the artificial island. Again, you have choices and chances to cut the hike short, or continue along the trail. Food for thought. Once you have had enough of Colomitos beach, you look for the path leading up the other side of the playa, you cross the little stream and climb up the rocks to some stairs carved into the side of the cliff, and its back into the jungle for you. This part of the walk is pretty strenuous. Lots of steps and stairs leading up from the beach, then some dirt paths alternating with stone steps and stairs, and  funny looking wooden slat bridges that look kind of suspicious, but they are sturdy. I’ve taken them several times with the same result. I lived to tell the tale. Just watch your footing that’s all. Anyway the trail works it’s way down to another beach, this one bigger and broader. [caption id="attachment_1269" align="aligncenter" width="1184"] Colomitos Beach and the Ocean Grill[/caption] I guess I can tell you that story, the one about the hike with my wife twin and his wife now. Last October, I invited my bro and his wife Jill to Puerto Vallarta. Neither had ever been so I insisted they come along with us and we would treat. So I suggested we take this hike and they all seemed to be in. [caption id="attachment_1274" align="alignright" width="300"] Nice Vistas Along the Trail[/caption] Remember, it was October and it is HOT and HUMID. 91 degrees and it feels like 105, and the humidity, the worst! By the time we hit the Ocean Grille at Playa Colomitos, there are grumblings from my fellow travelers who begin to ask…are we there yet? Oh no! Now I’m really beginning to feel really bad about this. We are supposed to be out for a good time and I am beginning to believe that they think that we are on the Bataan Death March. “Can’t we just eat here?” asks my wife, gesturing to the Ocean Grille with its cute raft like island bobbing out front. “No, you have to make a reservation in advance to get in.” I explain. “The idea was to hike to Las Animas.” According to my recollection, the hardest part of the walk was still ahead of us and I had to break to news to them that we still had a long way to go. We begin to hike up the stairs from down on the beach, and continued into the jungle, then as I described earlier, down to next beach where we found the Catamaran Bora Bora, anchored with all of her partygoers and snorkelers ‘a partyin and snorkelin and lounging around the “secluded” beach. It is there where the mutiny took place. Gary took the initiative. He spotted the guy in charge of the landing party of the Bora Bora, and made a bee-line to him. “How far to Las Animas from here?” “About a 45 minute walk or so.” he is told. “How can we get a boat ride out of here? How much will it cost?” Gary asks. “That depends on the captain. Not sure, maybe 60 pesos each? Maybe 500 pesos total? I will keep an eye out and flag one down for you.” My brother asks, what’s your name? ”  “My name is Mr. Panda!” he proclaims. “Okay Mr. Panda, Gracias!” [caption id="attachment_1270" align="alignright" width="300"] Colomitos Cove and The Ocean Grill[/caption] You can’t imagine how terribly I felt then. I really wanted to finish the hike. I knew that we were already past the hardest part of the trip but I knew I could never convince these hearty travelers that they could make it. Alas, it was no use, they were spent and I could tell that they were going no further. I resigned to make the best of the bad situation and we cooled off in the ocean and waited for Mr. Panda to do his magic and whistle in a panga to pick up the tired gringos and deliver them to a palapa on a beach with an umbrella drink or cervesa, a bowl of chips and guacamole and a cavalcade of beach vendor selling everything from pies to plaster-of-Paris busts of Montezuma and lion’s heads and stuff and junk. And within 10 minutes as a result of a whistle and a wave from Mr. Panda, we had a boat slide up on the sand, parting the partiers just a bit while I negotiated the extraction. I asked the boatman if he could take us the rest of the way to Las Animas, and then wait for us for an hour and a half, then deliver us back to Boca for 500 pesos. He agreed and we all scrambled onto his launch and off we went, warm breeze blowing in our faces. Things were looking up for our party of four. [caption id="attachment_1254" align="alignright" width="300"] La Troza Beach Resort[/caption] [caption id="attachment_1255" align="alignleft" width="776"] La Troza Beach Resort on The Trail to Las Animas[/caption] He took us to Las Animas where we ate at a nice place where we were seated under umbrellas at a comfortable table. By then the mutineers were beginning to get the color back in their cheeks and they were slightly forgiving of moi, their evil taskmaster.  I apologized and promised to never make them go on a hike again. So that was in the heat of the off season, but this time of year, in mid-May, the weather was perfect. The humidity was way down and the weather was in the low to mid 80’s. It was considerably dryer in May than it was in October with all the rain. That was the most suprising part of the hike. How dry the vegetation was this time of year. Let’s face it, by May, Vallarta has been mostly dry since the end of October, so that’s dry. So there, a lesson to you and another chance to change up your itinerary should the hike prove to be too much for you. You can always stand on a beach, and summon a panga to extract you. Just don’t stand on some rocks and summon the poor fella, find a nice, soft sandy beach for him to slide up on. [caption id="attachment_1249" align="alignleft" width="300"] Mike's Beach Club Las Animas[/caption] [caption id="attachment_1248" align="alignleft" width="300"] Mike's Beach Club Las Animas[/caption] [caption id="attachment_1247" align="alignright" width="300"] Las Animas Beach[/caption]   Anyway, the rest of the trail flows alternatively into the jungle and along the sandy beaches. There are a few resorts and private homes you will walk past. Beautiful white sandy beaches and blue, blue ocean. You will climb up the path past a really, nice bar, the Hotelito Mio where you can stop, take a table and sit and sip a cold one before moving along a few hundred more yards south to Las Animas Beach. All along this long beach there are different beachfront establishments with lounge chairs set up, tables under palapas. Great places to sit, eat relax, play in the water, stroll down the beach. Lounge in a hammock. [caption id="attachment_1261" align="alignright" width="300"] Bar at Hotelito Mio[/caption] This place, depending on the season and the day of the week can be pretty crowded. For fewer crowds, always go on a weekday. Once you have had your fill, you can turn around and hike back, or you and do like I do, and walk over to the pier, walk to the end, line up to the right side of the pier and hop in a lancha with a bunch of your new friends, and hang on tight for your return ride, along the coast and back to Boca. Now here’s the thing, here’s where you are going to feel slightly bad because get this, that two hour hike you just took to Las Animas just took that panga ride less than 5 minutes! Less than 5 minutes! Uggh!! I actually have a video of that ride back right here in the show notes for this episode. So I have video of the 1 ½ hour trip by land, and then that 5 minute ride back by sea for you to check out. It’s cool to be able to retrace the hike from the water. But just 5 minutes? Sheesh! As you exit the boat, hand the pilot 60 pesos, and step off the boat onto the dock. From there, hit the bathroom one more time and head up the road, back up to the highway where you more than likely will see a bus waiting to fill up for the ride back to Vallarta. Hand over your 8 pesos and have a seat on the bus, this time, on the left side so you have that great view of the ocean, Los Arcos, the dramatic coastline, all the way back to Basillio Badillo and Constitution. Home Sweet Vallarta! [caption id="attachment_1312" align="aligncenter" width="1000"] Barry & Debra at Boca de Tomatlan[/caption]   So that is the hike from Boca de Tomatlan to Las Animas Beach. A hike that you can do in any number of ways depending on your abilities. So let’s review The hike takes about 2 hours without stops but you will definitely want to stop and enjoy some of the beaches and views and maybe a refreshment along the way. At a minimum take water, towels, sunscreen, bug spray and a camera and wear good walking or hiking shoes. Catch the bus to Boca de Tomatlan from the stop in front of the OXXO at the corner of Basillo Badillo and Constitucion. About 8 ½ pesos. Once in Boca walk down the hill from the bus into town. You can buy drinks and snacks here for the hike and take a look around town. Make your way to the river and footbridge at the foot of town. There will be a post with a bunch of signs; one will point to Las Animas. The Panga ride to Boca back from Las Animas is approximately 60 pesos. The bus back to town is another 8 ½ pesos. [caption id="attachment_1260" align="alignleft" width="1126"] Hotelito Mio[/caption]                   So do the whole hike, just part of it, or just come on the website and check out my videos and pictures, and feel what it’s like to do that hike. Just get out there, and have fun amigos.

As the various shots of Mr Beam, Alcohol free beer, Cider and Newcastle's finest mix together. The hosts attempt to move the show forward by looking to the past, 2014 to be exact! To discuss just how toxic the year was for gaming. Melonz tries to remember a Gears Of War character and yes you guessed it, Hitler is accidentally mentioned yet again. Sir Rampage talks about the golden oldies of comedy animation and how much better it was compared to the current modern dross. All this and yet again not a lot more in your weekly hourly installment of the most jaded podcast on the internet. Or 50+ minutes....But seriously who’s counting?!

Uggh! So much venting, so much post-electoral disdain as the Garage Hour goons get the re-election of President Pickle out of their systems... On top of their cries are heaped the last gasps of low-information progressive and socialist votes in the People's Republic of Kalifornia, which put a supermajority of leftist nutballs in the state capitol, and several deeply flawed pinkos like San Diego's Bob Failner in the mayor's office. Sorry, had to get that out. This episode was meant to be a celebration of America's fighting men and women, plus a nod to the US Marines' birthday, so on top of some good road-race tales and a good look at the automotive orgasm that is Las Vegas's SEMA show from cohost Mr. Dustin, there's General Petreaus's fall, threats to our Second Amendment, Fatso Jetson, "It's wafer-thin!", a Richard Ryder redux, Bob "Catfish" Failner, leftists-progressives-socialists-communists connections, Bilstein suspensions and shooting at P2K Range. .45 Phil, Crag Maxwell and Dirty Dave also join Hostus Maximus Justin Fort in-studio for this rousing episode.

Today we discuss a plethora of Halo 4 News, Discussion, and Updates.
