Alex has been steadily honing Pinevictus all year. Though Pinevictus has been around since November 2021 during his days at UMD as a Leatherback, 2025 is the year where the robot has been on a meteoric rise. It started the year strong by reaching the Semifinals at February NHRL with a Judges Decision loss to Silent Spring followed by solid runs at Motorama and Hive Hysteria. After designing and debuting a new version only two weeks out from Finals, it was a gamble that paid off to win the distinguished Golden Brett at the NHRL World Finals! Let us know what questions you have for Alex! To watch the podcast live check out https://www.youtube.com/@jakemaximizer/streams on every other Thursday at 7pm EST!

Tensión militar, traiciones y arena. La jugada maestra de Juan Carlos. Dos historias militares que, en 1975, dejaron España con el pulso acelerado y el alma en vilo. La de la UMD, un puñado de oficiales valientes que decidió que la democracia no se iba a defender sola. Y se jugaron la carrera, la libertad y la vida por intentar sacar al Ejército del siglo XIX. Y la de la Marcha Verde, un movimiento masivo con el que Marruecos forzó la salida española del Sáhara. Entre negociaciones opacas, estrategias cuestionables, cálculos políticos y geopolítica convertida en un puñetazo de realidad, un territorio cambió de manos mientras el mundo miraba para otro lado. En este extra, David Botello (@DavidBotello4), Esther Sánchez (@estesan1969) y Ainara Ariztoy, nos hablan de militares clandestinos, diplomacia al límite y un territorio que todavía hoy reclama justicia. Si quieres acompañarlos, ¡súbete a la Historia!
