Check out host Bidemi Ologunde's new show: The Work Ethic Podcast, available on Spotify and Apple Podcasts.Email: bidemiologunde@gmail.comIn this episode, host Bidemi Ologunde connects the dots between three fast-moving signals from Feb 23–Mar 1, 2026: a chokepoint-driven escalation in the US/Israel/Iran war, Europe's shift from "paper sanctions" to physical interdictions at sea, and the growing reality that grids and courtrooms are now battlegrounds. What does it mean when the Strait of Hormuz becomes a frontline? Are maritime seizures the new normal in sanctions enforcement, and what happens when states push back in the gray zone? Can international law and infrastructure strikes reshape alliances faster than diplomats can react? Plus: what should listeners watch next as markets, militaries, and legal institutions collide in real time?On the Bid Picture Podcast, I talk about big ideas, and Lembrih is one of them. Born from Ghanaian roots, Lembrih is building an ethical marketplace for Black and African artisans: makers of heritage-rich products often overlooked online. The vision is simple: shop consciously, empower communities, and share the stories behind the craft. Lembrih is live on Kickstarter now, and your pledge helps build the platform.

Patrick Epino shares how a simple YouTube video about Hollywood tropes evolved into the crowdfunded feature film Awesome Asian Bad Guys. After building an audience through the National Film Society, Patrick and his team leveraged their online community to raise over $50,000 on Kickstarter. He explains why crowdfunding requires relentless outreach, consistent content creation, and a pre-existing audience rather than blind optimism.The conversation also explores casting through community relationships, co-directing dynamics, production challenges, and the realities of low-budget filmmaking. Patrick's journey highlights the power of niche storytelling, audience engagement, and refusing to wait for industry gatekeepers. It's an inspiring blueprint for filmmakers looking to turn a small idea into a tangible feature film.Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/indie-film-hustle-a-filmmaking-podcast--2664729/support.

-- On the Show -- Donald Trump launches a joint military operation with Israel, attacking Iran that kills Ayatollah Khamenei, leading to regional retaliation, and raising unresolved questions about regime change -- Donald Trump confirms three United States service members are dead, says there will likely be more casualties, and frames additional American deaths as inevitable while offering no clear mission or exit strategy -- Pete Hegseth calls the Iran operation a war, predicts more United States casualties, contradicts Donald Trump on regime change, and invokes religion while defending the administration's military actions -- Four men at a Washington DC restaurant allegedly brag about bombing Iran hours before the strikes, raising serious operational security concerns -- Tulsi Gabbard had previously warned that Donald Trump committed an act of war without congressional authority and questioned the objective of escalation with Iran -- Ted Cruz says he has no indication Iran was close to obtaining nuclear weapons, undermining the stated urgency and core justification for Donald Trump's military strikes -- Donald Trump could attempt to delay, disrupt, or manipulate midterm elections through emergency declarations and pressure on state officials if political conditions favor such actions -- National literacy data shows that roughly one in five American adults reads below a sixth-grade level, raising concerns about how limited reading comprehension shapes political messaging -- On the Bonus Show: Americans will likely pay for Trump's war with Iran, Bill Clinton testifies before Congress, Bernie calls for a $4.4 trillion tax hike on billionaires, and much more...

Check out host Bidemi Ologunde's new show: The Work Ethic Podcast, available on Spotify and Apple Podcasts.Email: bidemiologunde@gmail.comIn this episode, host Bidemi Ologunde unpacks the rise of "nihilistic" violence, where ideology can be thin, but the drive for notoriety, cruelty, and chaos is the point. How do online subcultures turn despair into a violent aesthetic? Why do these spaces sometimes overlap with accelerationist and neo-Nazi ecosystems without being the same thing? And what do documented cases suggest about a disturbing crime–terror convergence, including sextortion and coercion targeting young people? The episode closes with practical, prevention-focused takeaways, and how to cover these stories without amplifying propaganda or "how-to" harm.Quick question: when you buy something handmade, do you ever wonder who made it, and where your money really goes? Lembrih is building a marketplace where you can shop Black and African-owned brands and learn the story behind the craft. And the impact is built in: buyers can support vendors directly, and Lembrih also gives back through African-led charities, including $1 per purchase. They're crowdfunding on Kickstarter now.

Check out host Bidemi Ologunde's new show: The Work Ethic Podcast, available on Spotify and Apple Podcasts.Email: bidemiologunde@gmail.comIn this episode, host Bidemi Ologunde sits down with Ed Delia, President of Delia Associates, to trace his journey from stepping into second-generation leadership to building a repeatable system for brand growth, The Brand Leadership Solution™, used to launch and revitalize hundreds of brands. What does it really take to scale a brand with business-centric creativity (and keep it tied to revenue)? How do you lead through change without losing the culture that made the company successful? And as AI reshapes marketing, what should leaders embrace, and what should they be cautious about?They also dig into the organizational and personal use of AI: Where can it accelerate strategy, research, and execution, and where does it risk sameness, privacy issues, or over-reliance? How should businesses think about visibility in a world where customers ask AI for answers instead of searching links? And how do we build a healthier relationship with technology while still winning in a digital-first marketplace?On the Bid Picture Podcast, I talk about big ideas, and Lembrih is one of them. Born from Ghanaian roots, Lembrih is building an ethical marketplace for Black and African artisans: makers of heritage-rich products often overlooked online.

Our hosts return to the podcave to review “Animal Act," a very average episode of TNBA.Alex and Will dig into why this marks the final DCAU appearance of the Mad Hatter, and celebrate just how perfect Roddy McDowell was in the role. They discuss Hatter's ever-evolving mind-control tech and his simple desire to just watch the people of Gotham smash. Meanwhile, Dick Grayson revisits his circus roots, reflects on his old life, and endures the ultimate insult—being called fat by the Fat Lady. Our hosts also touch on Batman's absolute refusal to admit when someone sneaks up on him, Dick's inexplicable love for Japan (despite never having been), and the crucial revelation that Mad Hatter and Ra's al Ghul are now locked in a fierce rivalry on the amateur rap battle circuit.Tip Jar: https://buymeacoffee.com/batmantaspod ThreadHeads 20% Off: https://www.threadheads.com/BATMANTASPOD87466Buy Our Merch: https://www.bleakworld.store/category/btas-podcast-collaborationOutbreaks Issue 4 Kickstarter: https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/speechcomics/outbreaks-1-4-an-ongoing-zombie-anthology-seriesMobster Mash 1-2 Kickstarter: https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/speechcomics/mobster-mash-1-2-classic-movie-monsters-as-mobsters Join Our Discord - https://discord.com/invite/bQF76V3nUs TikTok⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ - https://www.tiktok.com/@batmantaspod?_t=8zn1yhsgnfz&_r=1⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ Follow us on YouTube⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ - https://www.youtube.com/@batmantaspod Follow the Pod on Instagram⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ - https://www.instagram.com/batmantaspod/⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ Follow the Pod on Facebook⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ - https://www.facebook.com/BatmanTASPod Follow the Pod on Twitter⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ - https://twitter.com/batmantaspod1⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ Subscribe to Will's Patreon⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ - https://www.patreon.com/willrobson Speech Comics Website⁠ - https://www.speechcomics.com/ Will's WhatNot Page⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ - https://www.whatnot.com/user/speechcomics

To close Black History Month, I talk to a Faqs Project favorite Anthony Stokes (Tap or Die) and AJ Ampadu (Ninjak vs Roku) to the Football Epic Silent as a Non-Verbal Quarterback overcomes his obstacles to pressure his team to victory. First, the task alone to create one of your main characters totally using American sign language brings forth the challenge of linguists within your art, because now the emotions have been heightened all within this violent gridiron game. This is a Unicorn of sorts as you usually see sports in manga really than American Comics especially Football which not many creators have tackled (pun intended). This 4 issue mini-series drops on Kickstarter on March 3rd but Ashcans will be available at Blerd-Con the first week of March.Sidenote: AJ Ampadu is the first African American man to write Shadowman for Valiant ComicsWritten by Anthony StokesArt by Gabriel FonsecaColors by Iacopo CalistiLetters by LettersquidSupport this podcast at — https://redcircle.com/the-faqs-project-hosted-by-james-grandmaster-faqs-boyce/donations

A short teaser for Dominus, a Catholic folk horror audio drama from the Rusty Quill Network featuring voice actors from Disco Elysium, The Magnus Archives & The Magnus Protocol.

Unfortunately for them, the demon is a true believer, and therefore inoculated against Catholicism.Dominus deals with elements of folk religion, queer identity, Catholicism in the global south, religious trauma, and loss of faith. This teaser stars David Ault as Uncle Lenard.The DOMINUS pilot episode premieres March 1, 2026, on the Rusty Quill Network.

Full disclaimer up top, I, Noah Ray the host, didn't get the title correct of the zine “Movies Are Great… But Specifically in 2018” the whole interview, and this is what the guests were here to promote. I feel horribly and have apologized. My mistake is not due to disinterest in the book. The zine is one of the most unique and interesting works we've featured on our show combining essays, reviews, interviews, design, and illustration into one celebration of cinema… specifically in 2018.

Travels With Randy Route 66 Episode 6 is here! Something Something Something Winslow, Arizona Route 66's Steepest Climb Randy discussed his journey along Route 66, focusing on the steep climb from Ash Fork to Williams, which he described as the steepest on the route. He explained that modern vehicles easily navigate this challenging terrain, unlike the early 20th-century cars that struggled to ascend. Randy also mentioned encountering abandoned cars along the route, which he finds fascinating and takes pictures of, though he lacks the expertise to identify many of the makes and models. Automotive Industry Consolidation History The discussion focused on the history of the automotive industry, with Randy sharing that a Ford Model T cost $250 in 1926 (equivalent to $4,500 today) while a Packard cost $3,300, and that there were 1,800 different car companies in the United States in the 1920s, compared to just three major companies today (Ford, GM, and Stellantis). They discussed how the industry has undergone significant consolidation over time, with many companies failing during the Great Depression and World War II playing a crucial role in Jeep's survival. Bubba noted parallels between the automotive industry's history and the current AI landscape, where many companies may eventually be consolidated down to a few major players. Williams: Route 66 Gateway The discussion focused on the history and significance of Williams, Arizona, as a key stop along Route 66. Randy explained that Williams was the last town bypassed by Interstate 40, which was notable because they negotiated three distinct entrances and exits in exchange for being bypassed. They discussed the town's history as a gateway to the Grand Canyon, despite Route 66 not directly reaching the canyon, and highlighted the presence of the Grand Canyon Railway, which still operates train service from Williams to the Grand Canyon. The conversation also touched on the Harvey Hotels, which were prominent railroad stops with elegant dining and lodging, with La Posada in Winslow being one of the few remaining original Harvey houses. Flagstaff's Route 66 Resilience The discussion focused on the history and significance of Flagstaff, Arizona, as a key stop along Route 66. Randy explained how Flagstaff survived and thrived despite the construction of Interstate 40, attributing its success to the establishment of Northern Arizona University and the presence of the Lowell Observatory, where Pluto was discovered. They discussed Flagstaff's unique dark sky ordinance requiring neon lights to be turned off 30 minutes after business hours, and Bubba shared a personal story about his son's astronomy class at NC State, where students can remotely control satellites to take pictures of celestial objects like galaxies Route 66: Winslow's Revival Journey The discussion focused on the history and development of towns along Route 66, particularly Winslow, which gained fame from the Eagles' song "Take It Easy." The town transformed from a ghost town to a popular tourist destination after building a park and statue on the corner referenced in the song. The conversation also covered Two Guns and Two Arrows, two nearby towns with different attractions, and mentioned that Route 66 passed through the Petrified Forest National Park before being rerouted. Route 66 Maintenance Challenges Randy discussed Route 66, highlighting its historical significance and the challenges in maintaining the original road for a national bike route. They explained that while some states have completed their sections, others like Arizona and New Mexico have not, making it dangerous for cyclists. Randy shared experiences driving through the Petrified Forest, describing its stunning rock formations and the transformation of the Painted Desert Inn into a visitor center. They noted that after Flagstaff, Route 66 becomes less maintained and less accessible, with many dead ends and issues with tribal land permissions. Route 66 Exploration and Challenges Randy shared his experience exploring Route 66 in Arizona, including visiting a 50,000-year-old crater and the town of Winslow, famous for the song "Take It Easy." They discussed the challenges of maintaining businesses along the less-traveled Route 66 compared to Interstate 40, noting the abundance of abandoned gas stations and trading posts. Randy highlighted the unique attractions in towns like Holbrook and Winslow, and mentioned plans to continue exploring Route 66 into New Mexico in the following week. Route 66 Podcast and Preservation Randy and Bubba discussed their ongoing Route 66 podcast and social media project, noting their growing Facebook following of 25,000 and plans to launch a Kickstarter campaign in mid-March. They explored the challenges of preserving Route 66, including the need to complete certain sections to enable a bike path, and shared their concerns about younger generations losing interest in road trips. Bubba suggested the idea of renting classic cars along Route 66 to enhance the travel experience, and both agreed on the importance of capturing nostalgia for future generations. They also discussed their use of AI, specifically Beth, to assist with their project and the potential for future developments in automated driving.   SO. MANY.

Check out host Bidemi Ologunde's new show: The Work Ethic Podcast, available on Spotify and Apple Podcasts.Email: bidemiologunde@gmail.comIn this episode, host Bidemi Ologunde connects three fast-moving global signals from Feb 16–22, 2026: as coercive diplomacy returns to center stage, legitimacy battles shift into courts and security perimeters, and "basic systems" (water, climate resilience, and public health) show dangerous strain. Why are high-stakes negotiations increasingly paired with escalation? When politics becomes a legal and security contest, who decides what's dissent versus threat? And what happens when sewage leaks, floods and fires, and vaccine gaps all hit the trust economy at once? Bidemi closes with a practical question for leaders and citizens alike: which "pump handles" matter most before the next surge arrives, and who's accountable for pulling them?Quick question: when you buy something handmade, do you ever wonder who made it, and where your money really goes? Lembrih is building a marketplace where you can shop Black and African-owned brands and learn the story behind the craft. And the impact is built in: buyers can support vendors directly, and Lembrih also gives back through African-led charities, including $1 per purchase. They're crowdfunding on Kickstarter now.

Double Tap - Ep 450 This episode of Double Tap is brought to you by: Gideon Optics (Code: WLSISLIFE) Primary Arms Blue Alpha Rost Martin (Code: WLSISLIFE) Otis Technology (Code: WELIKESHOOTING15) Mitchell Defense (Code: WLS10) Text Dear WLS or Reviews +1 743 500 2171 New Public notes page. DEAR WLS Question from Peter J from WA Dear WLS: as far as carry guns go, what is important? Optics, comp/ port, trigger, capacity, comfortability, conceal availability, type of holster, or anything else you can think of? Or it's just the plain Jane G 19 stock type good to go? Question from Duke of Crude from TX Duke of Crude: What's up with Taylor and co? I thought they made high end lever actions, but I have been getting a ton of adds for what looks like a high point revolver (model 963) that's “Taylor and co”. Did their brand get high jacked from Turkish importers or are these things for real? Thanks! Notes: what happened to the new years dead pool episode? Did I miss it or were you waiting on Aaron to get back? Question from Micah Wells from Michigan Question! Why hasn't anyone come up with a quick release pistol dot or base/mount? Something like we use on rifles? You know, in case a problem arises that requires the whole thing to get out of the way in order to use BUIS. (AKA, crushed glass, debris, external fogging, etc.) I know all of my serious stuff utilizes a QR mount. Thanks, Micah Wells Question from Dusky from Florida Hi. Question. Can/Should you shoot lead round nose 22lr through a suppressor? (Have a modular can that can easily be disassembled and cleaned) Is this an issue, if so is it about the lead exposure, sound performance, or just a safety factor? Thank you. Is the Dusky. No Notes. Question from Ken G. from VA Ask WLS: My state has fallen. This year will likely see an onslaught of anti gun legislation passed. Moving is not an option. My firearms collection is pretty diverse. If you were in my shoes with YOUR collection, $3k, and less than six months to make purchases, what are you buying? Ken G. Sic Semper Tyrannis Question from Anonymous Coward from KS Dear WLS Hey Jeremy, how much for the old Harley? Question from Anonymous Coward from Ohio Hello I was wondering if there is a coupon code for pew locker? Thanks for all you guys do for the fun community. And the is show is way better without Aaron. Hope this is a permanent change.

Voice actor Maren Garcia joins host Roy Samuelson to talk about how she first discovered Audio Description, and why it immediately felt personal.   Maren shares the moment she was hired for a full feature film, after being found through the Disabled Voice Actors Directory, a resource built to support authentic casting.   She talks candidly about vetting an unfamiliar company before saying yes, then falling in love with audio description as both craft and service.   They dig into what makes audio description work when it is done well: intention, empathy, and choices that support the story. Audio description is the narration track that communicates essential visual information that the audio alone cannot carry.   Maren also describes an experiment watching a dance show with audio description, just to feel how writers and performers decide what matters when everything is visual.   Then the conversation pivots to NPC Chronicles, a Kickstarter soundboard project for Dungeons & Dragons non-playable characters, and why Maren sees it as an access and connection tool, inspired by assistive communication devices and her experience working with kids with disabilities. A soundboard is essentially an on-demand toolbox of sounds you can trigger in real time.   Follow Maren at @MarenGarciaVO.

We sit down with Ron of Buya Toys to trace a wild pivot from gaming industry 3D artist to full-time music-inspired toy maker in Thailand. Growing up in the Middle East, art became survival, identity, and escape. After losing his job, Ron found clarity through music, The Artist's Way, and sculpting musicians like Doechii, Tyler, JID, and SZA into bold, stylized figures. We unpack launching Buya just seven months ago, shutting down a Kickstarter mid-run, pivoting to preorders, and selling out.

Check out host Bidemi Ologunde's new show: The Work Ethic Podcast, available on Spotify and Apple Podcasts.Email: bidemiologunde@gmail.comIn this episode, host Bidemi Ologunde breaks down an intelligence-style, open-source psychological profile of Japan's Prime Minister Sanae Takaichi: her decision-making "action bias," ideological anchors, and the political risks of governing as a highly personalized brand. What does her "Iron Lady" reputation mean for crisis choices in a Taiwan-linked scenario? How might her push for faster defense build-up—and talk of constitutional change—reshape the U.S.–Japan alliance, the Quad, and trilateral security ties with South Korea and the Philippines? And as Tokyo–Beijing friction rises, can Japan strengthen deterrence without narrowing the region's room for error?On the Bid Picture Podcast, I talk about big ideas, and Lembrih is one of them. Born from Ghanaian roots, Lembrih is building an ethical marketplace for Black and African artisans: makers of heritage-rich products often overlooked online. The vision is simple: shop consciously, empower communities, and share the stories behind the craft. Lembrih is live on Kickstarter now, and your pledge helps build the platform.

Daniel shares lessons from serving as a Senior Financial Advisor overseeing $800M in client assets, how his Johns Hopkins research on AI forecasting shaped his view of markets, and why he built FinMate AI to help advisors boost productivity, strengthen client relationships, and improve retention. What can AI actually do for financial advisors today, and what's still hype? How do behavioral biases show up during volatility, and how should investors guard against them? What does "secure, compliant AI" really mean in financial services? And as economic forces keep shifting, what will the AI-enabled advisor look like in the next five years? Tune in for a practical, honest conversation on AI, investing trends, client trust, and the future of wealth management.Quick question: when you buy something handmade, do you ever wonder who made it, and where your money really goes?

Check out host Bidemi Ologunde's new show: The Work Ethic Podcast, available on Spotify and Apple Podcasts.Email: bidemiologunde@gmail.comIn this episode, host Bidemi Ologunde sits down with Preston Zeller to explore what it looks like to build technology that supports, rather than replaces, real human connection at the intersection of faith, grief, and emotional wellness. From Preston's 15+ years in tech leadership and business exits to his work on Psalmlog, an AI-driven tool designed to help Christians access Scripture-grounded guidance without losing the human touch of discipleship, they unpack the promises and pitfalls of "faith-tech." How do you design AI with privacy, safety, and spiritual integrity in mind? Where's the line between helpful support and unhealthy dependence, especially when someone is lonely or grieving? And what practices can help all of us develop a healthier relationship with technology in everyday life?On the Bid Picture Podcast, I talk about big ideas, and Lembrih is one of them.

As The Simpsons hits its 800th episode, Jim Hill takes a moment to appreciate how this once-scrappy Fox upstart became an animation institution that may never actually end. From the long-lost series finale concept where Homer and Krusty were secretly the same person to the show's upcoming theatrical sequel and Disney's long-term park plans, this week's Fine Tooning looks at how Springfield keeps evolving. Plus, box office updates, Avatar sequel math, Matt Braly's next move after Sony, and a wild Steven Spielberg phone call that changed animation history. NEWS • The Simpsons celebrates its 800th episode with “Irrational Treasure,” the 14th episode of Season 37, as the series eyes renewal through Season 40 and a second theatrical film set for September 3, 2027. • Disney+ viewers can compare Season 1's “Santa's Little Helper” to the new milestone episode to see just how dramatically the show's animation quality has evolved since 1989. • Sony Pictures Animation's Goat opens strong over Presidents Day weekend, reportedly close behind Warner Bros.' Wuthering Heights, with final box office numbers still shifting. • Zootopia 2 crosses $1.83 billion worldwide, becoming the ninth highest-grossing film of all time, though its upcoming March 3 home video release may slow its push toward $2 billion. • Avatar: Fire & Ash reaches $1.46 billion globally, profitable but well below the franchise's prior installments, raising questions about costs and expectations for Avatar 4 and 5. • Matt Braly and Rebecca Sugar's previously in-development Sony feature is shelved, but Braly launches a Kickstarter on March 13 for his indie gothic horror pilot Clara and the Below. • The RiffTrax team raises nearly $1.9 million on Kickstarter for The RiffTrax Experiments, offering a hopeful blueprint for creator-driven animation crowdfunding. FEATURE • The behind-the-scenes story of how Judy Freudberg and Tony Geiss were hired by Steven Spielberg to write The Land Before Time, following his surprise discovery of Sesame Street Presents: Follow That Bird. • Spielberg's now-legendary phone call to Freudberg, initially mistaken for a prank, ultimately led to a creative partnership that bridged Sesame Street and major animated feature filmmaking.
