Episode 357 features author Rob Weir, who discusses his book 7 Swings at 7: Mickey Mantle — Legend and Victim of American Culture and takes us behind the myth of one of baseball's most iconic figures. We also revisit our memorable interview with barbecue legends Moe Cason and Bob Trudnak. Rob Weir holds a PhD in American social history and is a retired University of Massachusetts Amherst professor. He is the author of the book, 7 Swings at 7: Mickey Mantle - Legend and Victim of American Culture. Weir's lifelong fascination with Mantle began when he was five years old. That personal connection, combined with his academic training, provides the foundation for 7 Swings at 7 and his exploration of why Mickey Mantle continues to fascinate generations of baseball fans. Mickey Mantle remains one of the most fascinating and complicated figures in baseball history. He was a Yankees superstar, a three-time MVP, a seven-time World Series champion, and one of the most celebrated athletes of the 1950s and 1960s. But behind the legendary home runs, incredible speed, and larger-than-life image was a man whose life was shaped by injuries, expectations, personal struggles, and the enormous cultural forces surrounding him. Moe Cason AKA Big Moe is an award winning pitmaster who has toiled for many years creating his well respected brand, Moe Cason Barbeque and his instantly recognizable, Big Moe persona. Moe is a television personality, cookbook author, and a Navy veteran. He has been featured in national television segments, including Steve Harvey's and Harry Connick Jr.'s talk shows and had his own segment on NatGeo's World of Flavor. For more information on Big Moe Cason and to purchase his products go to https://moecasonbbq.com/ Bob Trudnak has loved barbecue since the age of seven, when his dad placed him "in charge" of putting charcoal in the grill and from that day forward he was hooked. In 1999, Bob helped co-found the company, BBQ Guru. He is an award winning competive pitmaster. Beyond competitions, he is a renowned judge and instructor, having hosted hundreds of in-person and virtual barbecue classes. He is the creator of BBQ Bob's Sauces and BobbyT's Pizza Products. His latest accomplishment is winning season seven of BBQ Brawl on the Food Network to become the Master of 'Cue.

We return to St. Paul this week for a wonderful second set from August 6, 1982. The set hangs together beautifully, with the band locked in from start to finish. The opening Scarlet > Fire features some fine interplay between Jerry and Bob, with Garcia's lines dancing around Weir's rhythm. That same energy carries into Lost Sailor > Saint of Circumstance, which spills into Space and an 11‑beat, "Eleven"-style jam that sets up some exuberant drumming. Truckin' is not your usual 1982 fare either, with Brent and Phil adding plenty of snap and color. Post‑drums, a rare all‑Weir vocal segment brings a different flavor, highlighted by a lovely Goin' Down the Road Feelin' Bad into a rare non‑encore Johnny B. Goode. Jerry closes the night with a tender Baby Blue encore that feels very much of a piece with the mood of the set.

Young people today are surrounded by voices telling them to discover their own truth, define their own identity, and create their own purpose. But what happens when the foundation underneath those ideas keeps shifting? In this episode of BaseCamp Live, Davies Owens sits down with Joshua Weir, author of In Not Of: Firm Foundations for Life, to explore what it takes to raise a generation grounded in a biblical worldview. Joshua explains why the increasing individualism of our culture can leave young people searching for identity, truth, and belonging, and why Christian formation requires more than simply protecting children from competing ideas. Parents and educators must help students understand the world as it truly is, reason from biblical truth, and recognize the communities and influences that are shaping them. The conversation also gets practical. Joshua discusses why parents need to model the convictions they hope to pass on, why "because I said so" may not prepare older children to navigate competing worldviews, and how intentional conversations around the dinner table can help children develop the reasoning they will need when parents and teachers aren't there. For educators, Joshua emphasizes the extraordinary opportunity of the classroom. Great Christian education isn't merely about transferring information or attaching Bible verses to a lesson. It's about helping students see truth woven throughout history, literature, art, relationships, and the whole of life. In a culture of shifting identities and competing truths, how can we give the next generation something solid enough to stand on? This conversation offers encouragement and practical wisdom for parents and educators committed to building firm foundations that will last.

How do you know it is time to bring in a 401(k) advisor—and how do you choose the right one without just chasing the lowest fee? In this episode, you'll hear how Weir Group structured an objective, employee-focused advisor search that balanced fiduciary prudence with true loyalty to their workforce.In this episode, Eric, Becky, and Puneet discuss:Need for advisory support beyond recordkeepingDefining prudence vs. loyalty in fiduciary governanceBuilding objective evaluation criteria for advisor searchesCulture fit and long-term partnershipKey Takeaways:An advisor search doesn't have to be triggered by a problem with the recordkeeper; it can be driven by the desire to enhance governance and education for participants.Strong fiduciary governance means being intentional about both prudence (process) and loyalty (acting for employees' best interests), not just minimizing organizational risk.Cost should be evaluated only after rigorously assessing culture fit, capabilities, and alignment with the plan's priorities and participant needs.Treating an advisor as a long-term partner—rather than a vendor—helps committees design a structured, unbiased search and choose the firm best positioned to support participants over time.“The first thing we looked at before we got our three objectives was: is this a good culture fit for us?” - Becky Stealey“Once those objectives are set, go back to your vendors, talk to them. Are there any additional services they have that you can utilize, so you're not paying double to both parties?” -Puneet BrarAbout Becky Stealey: Becky Stealey is a Benefits Manager with over 15 years of experience designing, managing, and optimizing employee benefits programs. She has led major implementations of benefits systems, HR platforms, and portals to enhance operational efficiency, compliance, and employee experience, and serves on 401(k) plan committees to guide retirement strategy and fiduciary governance.About Puneet Brar: Puneet Brar is a Senior Benefits Partner at Weir, overseeing U.S. retirement, health, and welfare benefit programs. Working closely with the Retirement Plan Committee and external advisors, she manages 401(k) plan operations, fiduciary compliance, vendor relationships, regulatory audits, and strategic initiatives designed to optimize plan administration and improve employee retirement outcomes.Connect with Becky Stealey:LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/becky-stealey-a99308109/ Connect with Puneet Brar:LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/puneet-brar-147012a/ Connect with Eric Dyson: Website: https://90northllc.com/Phone: 940-248-4800Email: contact@90northllc.com LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/401kguy/ The information and content of this podcast are general in nature and are provided solely for educational and informational purposes.

Dr Gemma Newman is a British GP with over twenty years in medicine, additional qualifications in gynaecology and family planning, and a specialist interest in plant-based nutrition. She is also one of the clearest voices on women's health in a space that is absolutely riddled with people trying to make money from it.This one covers menopause and perimenopause properly. Estrogen, HRT, soy and why the fear around it has never matched the evidence, supplements worth taking versus the ones being aggressively marketed at women going through this, and why menopause has become such fertile ground for grifters. We also talk about why women become less visible as they age, how that makes them uniquely vulnerable to online marketing, the cultural differences in how menopause is experienced and talked about, and what a plant-based approach actually offers at this stage of life.Gemma has spent two decades in medicine watching this play out in her practice. She has no interest in selling you anything.Find me:SubstackInstagramIron Without the BullBuy Me a Coffee
A company with “nothing broken” in its 401(k) plan decides it still wants to be better—so what happens next? In this episode, you'll hear how a benefits committee clarified its priorities, navigated the 3(21) vs 3(38) decision, and ran a disciplined advisor search that elevated both fiduciary governance and employee outcomes.In this episode, Eric and Jeremy Burroughs discuss:Background on ESCO, Weir, and committee chair responsibilitiesWhy a solid 401(k) plan still needed an advisorSetting clear priorities and using them as a “north star”3(21) vs 3(38) advisors and committee compositionRunning finalist presentations and empowering every committee voiceKey Takeaways:A retirement plan can be functioning well on the surface and still benefit greatly from more structure, rigor, and the addition of an outside advisor.Defining a small set of clear priorities early in an advisor search—and returning to them often—keeps every decision aligned and consistent.The choice between a 3(21) and 3(38) advisor should reflect the actual strengths, bandwidth, and investment expertise of the committee, not just past experience.Effective searches invite honest, value-adding presentations from finalists and encourage every committee member to ask direct, practical questions.Having the confidence to share opinions, concerns, and preferences is essential; silence in the room can prevent the committee from reaching the best decision for participants.“In business, the relationships that you develop over time are really important. And if you have trusted relationships, they're that much more important.” - Jeremy BurroughsJeremy C. Burroughs serves as the Weir Group Inc.'s President and Head of North American Tax. In his role, Mr. Jeremy oversees all Weir tax operations in North America as well as the global tax operations for the ESCO Division. Jeremy joined Weir as part of its acquisition of ESCO Corporation, where he served as the Company's Vice President, Tax and Treasurer.

George Hearn is a life coach and Cambridge graduate who walked away from a corporate career in London, moved to Sydney, and now spends his time coaching young professionals who are good at life on paper and know something is still missing.We talk about the rock bottom paradox, why most people wait until things are genuinely falling apart before making changes they could have made years earlier, and what it looks like to start before you get there. The arrival fallacy, what happens when you finally hit the goal and feel nothing. Telic versus atelic activities and why the balance between them matters more than most productivity advice will ever tell you. Using envy as a signal instead of something to be ashamed of. Social media, the manufactured feeling of being behind, comparison, perfection, and what designing your life deliberately actually looks like versus just letting it accumulate.Find me:Substack Instagram Iron Without the Bull Buy Me a Coffee
TCS Sydney Marathon Head Coach Georgia Weir on Smarter Training, Easy Runs & Finding Your Running Crew This week on the Women's Running Collective, Hayles and Jussie are recording straight from the sauna after racing the Harbour 10 in Sydney. Fresh off the finish line, they chat about how the race unfolded, why the 10K might just be one of the toughest distances to race, and debate whether they'd rather tackle a 5K, half marathon or even another marathon. They also reflect on a fantastic weekend in Sydney before introducing this week's special guest, Georgia Weir. Head Coach of the TCS Sydney Marathon presented by ASICS, founder of Deadly Runners, and a proud First Nations woman who is using running to create lasting change in communities across Australia. Georgia shares her incredible running journey, why she believes training doesn't need to be complicated, and how consistency, not perfection is the key to becoming a stronger runner. We dive into choosing the right coach, why easy runs are so important, the dangers of comparing yourself on social media, and how finding your running community can completely transform your experience with the sport. After the interview, Hayles and Jussie wrap up with their favourite weekly recommendations including a glitter hair hack that's perfect for race day, a cosy magnesium tea ritual that's become a winter staple, and a recap of their Harbour 10 experience, post-race brunch and what's coming up next.

Take 241: Harrison Ford In Review — Episode 2The Peter Weir years. Jonathan and JP dig into the two-film stretch that makes the strongest case for Harrison Ford as a serious actor — and the one that proves audiences weren't ready to follow him there.First, Witness. The film every major studio passed on, that John Badham dismissed as "just another cop movie," that Sylvester Stallone turned down and later called one of the worst decisions of his career. The film that got Ford his only Oscar nomination, that Roger Ebert called a thriller Hitchcock would have been proud of, and that Peter Weir shot with the same cinematographer, composer, and editor he'd bring to the very next film. The barn-raising sequence. The dance to Wonderful World. The final porch scene with no dialogue at all. The big question: is this the best performance Ford ever gave?Then The Mosquito Coast. The film Weir had been trying to make since 1981, the one Jack Nicholson left over salary, the one Paul Schrader wrote, the one River Phoenix made at 15 years old before Stand By Me had even come out. Ford playing Allie Fox — brilliant, volatile, increasingly unhinged, dragging his family into the jungle on the conviction that America is finished and he can build something better from scratch. A character so far from Han Solo and John Book that audiences simply didn't show up. $14.3 million on a $25 million budget. Zero Oscar nominations. A genuine financial disaster.And underneath both films, the same question: Weir and Ford missed the Witness Oscar ceremony because they were already in Belize shooting Mosquito Coast. The film they skipped the ceremony for then flopped. Ford went back toward safer, more commercial roles. Indiana Jones. Patriot Games. The rest of the career we all know.Did the failure of Mosquito Coast close a door? And if audiences had embraced it — what kind of actor does Harrison Ford become?

Documentary filmmaker and occult researcher Darcy Weir joins the program to discuss his research into the UFO phenomenon.

Bronwyn Weir, Managing Director of Weir Legal and Consulting and co-author of the Building Confidence Report and Associate Professor Dr Matthew Bell, Co-Director of Studies at the Melbourne Law School, join the conversation to unpack major reforms reshaping Victoria’s residential building system. Both bring deep expertise in construction law and regulatory design, with a focus on how building regulation impacts consumers, practitioners, and industry accountability. In this episode, Bronwyn and Matthew explore the drivers behind Victoria’s building reforms, including past system failures, combustible cladding, and weaknesses in regulatory oversight. They discuss the transition from the Victorian Building Authority to the new Building and Plumbing Commission, the introduction of first resort insurance, expanded rectification and enforcement powers, and the new building system objective focused on health and safety. The conversation also examines whether these reforms will meaningfully improve outcomes, shift industry behaviour, and rebuild trust in the construction sector.

Filmmaker Darcy Weir joins the show for a wide-ranging conversation about fringe documentaries, Sasquatch evidence, UFO disclosure, hidden history, and the price that comes with challenging popular narratives. Darcy looks back on his early work covering Philip Schneider and the underground-base claims, then traces the path that led him into cryptids and Sasquatch through films like The Unwonted Sasquatch and Sasquatch Among Wild Men.The conversation explores Darcy's habit of tackling strange subjects before they break into the mainstream, from UFO secrecy to global “wild man” traditions and the possibility of surviving relic hominids. He and the host discuss the evidence that keeps serious researchers in the conversation, including the work of Grover Krantz and Dr. Jeffrey Meldrum, while also looking at why official acknowledgment of Sasquatch could create economic, legal, land-use, and public-safety problems for institutions that would rather leave the subject alone.They also get into the fractures inside the Bigfoot community itself, from hoaxers and sensational claims to the growing divide between researchers who focus on physical evidence and those who push paranormal, portal-based, or interdimensional explanations. The Patterson–Gimlin film comes up again as a flashpoint, along with renewed debate surrounding Capturing Bigfoot and the long shadow that famous footage still casts over the entire field.From there, the discussion widens into the overlap between Bigfoot culture and the UFO world, where serious questions are often buried under hype, ego, entertainment, and claims that outrun the evidence.Darcy shares his perspective on recent alien-related statements from lawmakers, the public's hunger for disclosure, and the way fringe communities punish anyone who questions the story they want to believe. That backlash, Darcy argues, is part of the “truth tax” paid by people who are willing to follow the evidence even when it costs them support, access, or popularity.Watch SECRET SPACE UFOs: Fastwalkers & Rise of the TR3BWatch DARK ALLIANCE: The Next GenerationWatch PUERTO RICO'S UAPEmail BrianJoin Our FREE NewsletterGet Brian's Books Leave Us A VoicemailVisit Our WebsiteBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/sasquatch-odyssey--4839697/support.Have you had a Bigfoot encounter, Sasquatch sighting, Dogman experience, or other cryptid or paranormal encounter?

Send us Fan MailI tell you my favorite part of my Scotland Trip and tie it to a great story about Mary Queen of Scots and a severed head! The Tom Sandoval and Victoria Lee Robinson fire pit video just dropped and I have exclusive details that are NOT being reported anywhere else.

Send us Fan MailWith Steven Spielberg's new film Disclosure dropping and President Trump's UAP files being declassified in real time, this felt like the moment I had to bring you this story. I brought on UAP documentary filmmaker Darcy Weir to break down something that's going to blow your mind — a massive grift happening in the UAP and paranormal world that operates eerily similar to Scientology, and once you hear the parallels, you will never look at these "disclosure" influencers the same way again. We get into Corey Goode, David Wilcock, and the Gaia show Cosmic Disclosure — the secret space program mythology they built, the lawsuits, the money, and a mysterious death that's sparked a whole new conspiracy of its own. I even tie it back to Real Housewives of Beverly Hills and a cast member's own manifestation grift, so stick around for that twist. Then I'm getting into massive RHONJ tea — Milania Giudice has reportedly been sent somewhere very specific, and I'm telling you exactly what that means and why Bravo's version of events doesn't add up. I also have proof that someone very specific is still controlling her social media, and wait until you hear how I figured it out. Plus, there's a wild detail about what really happened the day the police were called that nobody's talking about, and a rumor about who might be stepping back from the show entirely this season. Then it's a full Summer House breakdown — the real reason behind West Wilson's alleged master plan to take over the show, what really went down between him, Amanda Batula, and the rest of the cast, plus Meija Moreno's side of the story that didn't make it to air and the explosive cut scene with Lindsay Hubbard that you need to hear to believe.

Throughout this conversation, he opens up about the deaths of loved ones, multiple suicides within his circle, losing his daughter, surviving a horrific car crash, and the dark periods that followed.At one point, Sean found himself in such a difficult place that he attempted to take his own life.This conversation explores how he found a way back.We discuss combat sports, his Christian faith, purpose, plant medicine, personal growth, and the transformation that has taken place over the last few years as Sean rebuilt himself physically, mentally and spiritually.Sean also shares the role Ayahuasca played in his healing journey, why he believes it helped save his life, and how it gave him a new perspective on the pain he had carried for years.Alongside the personal story, we dive into his rapid rise through BKFC, his victories over Joe Lister and Matt Hodgson, the mindset required to compete at the highest level, and the potential future match-ups everyone is talking about.Get 20 lessons from 330 CamBro Conversations - https://colcambro.kit.com/60ed1b527bGet my Peak Productivity BLUEPRINT - https://colcambro.kit.com/products/peak-performance-blueprintIf you're considering a move to the UAE, looking to grow your team, or simply want to learn more about the opportunities available, head over to: Raithburn StaffingConnect with Sean:Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/seanweir8/Connect with Col:Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/col.cambro/Email List: https://colcambro.kit.com/30bde23b0cPatreon: https://www.patreon.com/ColCampbell
Weir is in a psychiatric hospital and told that the Stargate isn't real in The Real World. This is not our favorite trope or scifi plot. We always know from the start that what the character is told is the truth isn't the truth and there's too much time spent there when we would much rather get to what's actually happening and spend the episode there. Rodney and Beckett are really fun together in this episode, though. Along with that older lady in the hospital who goes on about the cold-blooded aliens from one of Satrun's moons.

Send us Fan MailOn this 120th episode of the Triple FFF we're going to chip away at the rock solid box office pairing of Author Andy Weir and screenwriter Drew Goddard as we discuss their two sci fi smash hits, 2015's The Martian directed by Ridley Scott and starringMatt Damon, Jessica Chastain, Chiwetel Ejiofor, Kristen Wiig, Michael Peña, Sean Bean, Kate Mara, Sebastian Stan, MacKenzie Davis, Donald Glover, and Jeff Daniels along with 2026's Project Hail Mary directed by Phil Lord & Christopher Millerstarring Ryan Gosling, Sandra Hüller and James Ortiz as the lovable and wacky alien Rocky. Returning to the show to discuss these crowd-pleasing and visually spectacular space epics is none other than Dr. David Johnson, DMD, whom I've called upon as a secret weapon in the last three films we've discussed because they were squarely in his wheelhouse: dancing and strutting his stuff with Michael, putting on a tough fit with Prada 1 & 2 and now his biggest passion and strength, HARD SCIENCE. Before we drift into deep space, the synopses: In the Martian, astronaut Mark Watney is impaled and presumed dead during a wicked Martian storm which causes his crew of astronaut/explorers to launch an emergency evacuation. Alive, wounded and alone on Mars Watney must use science, engineering, and endurance to survive long enough for Earth to mount an impossible rescue mission. In Project Hail Mary, Ryland Grace, a lone astronaut suffering from memory loss, awakens aboard a spacecraft on a desperate deep-space mission and gradually discovers he is humanity's last hope against a cosmic extinction event. Along the way, he encounters an alien astronaut from another species sent on a similar mission to protect its own civilization. Can the two work together to save their respective planets? Are these films fabulous or fails? Find out! Watch the podcast on Youtube:https://youtu.be/KqQbMzJx6wY

Today's conversation is with Scott Weir - entrepreneur, property investor, founder of Pillow Partners and Pillow Safe Havens, and a Krav Maga instructor.But Scott's story starts in a very different place.He grew up in an incredibly difficult environment raised by a single alcoholic mother, often living without electricity, stealing food to survive, and surrounded by people heading down dangerous paths involving crime and drugs.In this conversation, Scott shares how he escaped that environment by joining the Royal Navy at just 16 years old, saving his wages while at sea, and buying his first buy-to-let property at only 17.We discuss the mindset required to break generational patterns, the importance of environment, and how Scott navigated seeing childhood friends fall into crime and heroin while he pursued a completely different path.Scott also opens up about being diagnosed with dyslexia later in life, how that completely changed the way he viewed himself intellectually, and why he now sees his neurodivergent brain as both a superpower and something that nearly destroyed his business twice.We also dive into martial arts, Krav Maga, business growth, building Pillow Partners over the last 20 years, adapting a company to survive modern economic pressures, and his outspoken views on UK politics, property ownership, and the future of entrepreneurship in Britain.Expect to learn:How Scott's childhood shaped his early outlook but did not define his futureHow he avoided the dangerous paths many around him fell intoWhy he joined the Royal Navy at 16How he bought his first property at 17The impact being diagnosed with dyslexia had on his confidence and identityWhy neurodivergence can be both a gift and a challenge in businessHow Scott built Pillow Partners into a major property management companyThe lessons martial arts and Krav Maga taught him about discipline and leadershipHow he's transformed the business to make it “bulletproof”Our concerns about UK politics and the future of property investingWhat success looks like for him approaching 50This was a powerful conversation about resilience, escaping your environment, reinvention, entrepreneurship, and creating a completely different life from the one you were born into.Get 20 lessons from 330 CamBro Conversations - https://colcambro.kit.com/60ed1b527b Get my Linkedin for Sales Guide - https://colcambro.kit.com/products/linked-in-personal-brand-for-sellingGet my Peak Productivity BLUEPRINT - https://colcambro.kit.com/products/peak-performance-blueprint Make Millionaire Money Moves - https://millionaire-fhcpmlvz.manus.space Book a conversation about Private Medical Insurance with Lewis & Mark - lewis.mitchell@wpa-hcp.org.uk and Mark.McKenzie@wpa-hcp.org.uk Connect with Scott:Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/scottweirofficial/ LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/scottweirofficial/ Website: https://hosts.pillowpartners.com/ Connect with Col:Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/col.cambro/Email List: https://colcambro.kit.com/30bde23b0c Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/ColCampbell
In this week's episode, Luis Matos-Tovar gives us a look into Judith Weir's The Black Spider, a children's opera that challenges gendered expectations of women dying and men surviving that is common in many traditional operas. Weir does this in a manner that is musically accessible to younger performers with a story that is playful, somber, and triumphant.This episode was produced by Zach Lloyd along with Team Lead Matthew Ferrandino.

In this special episode of Scottish Murders, Dawn and her husband Peter recount the tragic and gripping case of Darryl Fitch, who was murdered in 2015. As they travel to Glasgow to participate in a Peninsula TV documentary about the case, they discuss the timeline, investigation, and trial that followed Darryl's death. The episode offers a detailed, reflective look at the complexities of the murder, the courtroom drama, forensic evidence, and the heart-breaking aftermath for Darryl's loved ones.Three Takeaways:The Tragic Murder of Darryl Fitch and Investigation ComplexitiesDarryl Fitch was found murdered in July 2015 while on a fishing and camping trip with his close friend, William Cameron. The initial lack of witnesses, William's injuries and memory gaps, combined with the isolated location near Bridge of Weir, created significant challenges for investigators. The forensic work was further complicated by missed opportunities, such as failing to examine a potential secondary crime scene near a viaduct.The Role of Drugs, Amnesia, and Changing TestimonyWilliam Cameron, the only survivor, was found with a high level of unprescribed drugs in his system, which could account for his confusion and memory loss about the events leading to Darryl's death. His account was vague, with repeated changes and increasing elaboration, raising scepticism and ultimately contributing to his arrest.Profound Impact on Victims' Loved Ones and Themes of BetrayalThe episode highlighted the devastating emotional toll on Darryl's girlfriend Mhairi, who lost both her partner and, just months earlier, her sister to separate acts of violence by trusted individuals. Mhairi's reflections on betrayal and shock were deeply felt, particularly after realising William's guilt during the trial.SOURCES:Please see our website for all source material and photos at https://scottishmurders.com/episodes/darrylfitchBritish Newspaper Archives Affiliate LinkSUPPORT US:Ko-fi - ko-fi.com/scottishmurdersMerch - teepublic.com/user/scottishmurdersWebsite - scottishmurders.comInstagram - @scottishmurderspodcastCREDITS:Scottish Murders is a production of CluarantonnHosted by Dawn YoungResearched, Written and Edited by Dawn YoungProduction Company Name by Granny Robertson

What if everything you believed about aging was incomplete?In this engaging and refreshingly honest episode of The DNA Talks Podcast, we welcome Doreen Wendt-Weir, author of Sex in Your Seventies and its spirited sequel, Gardening in Your Nineties.Doreen challenges cultural narratives around aging by asking bold, often humorous questions about vitality, intimacy, creativity, and identity later in life. Through her writing—and this conversation—she invites listeners to rethink what it means to grow older with curiosity, connection, and self-respect.We talk about why conversations around aging are so often avoided, how humor and honesty can open doors to deeper understanding, and why it's never too late to redefine joy, purpose, and personal expression. Doreen's perspective is both practical and playful, offering a counter-narrative to age-based limitations and assumptions.This episode is a celebration of longevity, lived experience, and the freedom that can come with embracing each stage of life on your own terms.If you wish to learn more from Doreen Wendt-Weir, you may do so through the following channels:Check out Doreen's book, Sex in Your Seventies, through this link: https://sexinyourseventies.com/2023/the-author/______________________________________________________Keep yourself up to date on The DNA Talks Podcast!

The Dead have a long history of great Spring performances, and 1980 was no exception. This week we go to Nassau for the May 14, 1980 show at the Nassau Coliseum in Uniondale, New York. This was the first night of a three‑show run, with the last two nights later compiled on the 2002 "Go To Nassau" release, leaving this opening show as the odd one out from the official catalog. This show comes shortly after the "Go To Heaven" release, so they open with "Alabama Getaway." Jerry gives us a fine reading of "Candyman," and the arrangements on Weir's "country" tunes—"Mexicali Blues" and "El Paso"—are rockin'. "Tennessee Jed" follows, with Brent providing a lovely counterpoint to Garcia's leads. "Let It Grow" then leads into a still‑new "Althea." Another "Go To Heaven" tune follows, Brent's "Easy to Love You," which leads into a rocking, set‑closing "Music Never Stopped." Let's settle in at Nassau Coliseum, May 14, 1980, on this week's Deadpod.

We discuss the hard sci-fi film Project Hail Mary, which along with The Martian (2015) was based on a novel by Andy Weir and adapted by Drew Goddard. Mark, Lawrence, Sarahlyn and Al consider how hard we actually like our sci-fi, the directors of these films (by Lord/Miller and Ridley Scott respectively), how the books got adapted, Weir's other work (Artemis, some webcomics, etc.), and more. How does Weir make a series of scientific problems into an actual, enjoyable plot? Get more at prettymuchpop.com.

Andy is joined by documentary filmmaker Darcy Weir to discuss his film Dark Alliance: The Inside Story of the Cosmic Con and the wider world of Secret Space Program claims, Corey Goode, David Wilcock and the ecosystem that has grown around some of the biggest personalities in ufology.They talk about why these stories gain traction, the crossover between entertainment and belief, the role of platforms like Gaia, and how difficult it can be for audiences to separate genuine mystery from elaborate storytelling. They also touch on Steven Greer, Chris Bledsoe, Bob Lazar, whistleblowers, and why critical thinking matters more than ever in a space where extraordinary claims continue to spread.This is a conversation about belief, influence, exploitation, and the parts of the UFO topic that deserve much closer scrutiny.https://www.occultjourneys.com/
Andy Weir's first time at the Hollywood rodeo was a singular trip. His debut novel, “The Martian,” went from self-published project to blockbuster, best picture-nominated film starring Matt Damon. His third book, “Project Hail Mary,” was also a sensation, and its adaptation, starring Ryan Gosling as a middle school science teacher tasked with saving humanity from slow extinction, charts warmly familiar territory: a lone man, stuck in space far from Earth, solving science problem after science problem with many a humorous aside. Weir joined the Book Review's podcast and spoke to the host Gilbert Cruz about the similarities and differences between Mark Watney and Ryland Grace (the main characters of “The Martian” and “Project Hail Mary”), his second novel “Artemis” and the alien character that readers have fallen in love with.
