The HOBI Gang is wrapping up their last "normal" episode of 2025 by welcoming Blake back into the studio! Jeff reviews the new Robin Hood series and is surprised by Sean Bean surviving the first episode, Blake has a lot of feelings about Superman and Fantastic Four, and Jim brings the pork! Plus the guys discuss the top five grossing films of the year, the most disappointing films of the year, and apologize for last week! This episode is sponsored by the Super Cincy Expo.

Lately I've been avoiding arguments by asking people about their "mode of justification" rather than the justification, itself. It's helped me in my genuine curiosity, which allows me to be more respectful when dealing with people whose beliefs seem ridiculous. There's no formula or script, but asking "what evidence would change your confidence in the truth of this claim?" has changed my relationship with these types of conversations. Working from where we do agree, and meeting people where they are, and exploring alongside each other - to understand HOW they got to the belief, rather than attempting to singlehandedly debunk the belief.

Justin Bieber BioSnap a weekly updated Biography.Justin Bieber has been making waves in the past week with a mix of family outings, viral social media moments, and fresh music buzz. On December 19, IMDb reports that Bieber and wife Hailey stepped out for a lunch date in West Hollywood, looking cozy amid holiday cheer, while the day before, on December 18, Kendall Jenner joined the couple at a festive holiday party in Brentwood, signaling strong ties in their inner circle. These public appearances carry biographical weight, showcasing Biebers united front post-rumors and their evolving Hollywood family life.Socially, a December 19 Premier Christianity piece highlights Biebers viral list of 10 family values, described as bold and biblical, sparking widespread online debate and shares that underscore his deepening faith influence. Earlier, on December 15, a full Twitch live stream titled "Justin Biebers WERE BACK" lit up platforms, with fans linking to his official YouTube, Instagram at justinbieber, and shop at JustinBieber dot link, hinting at a streaming comeback.Music headlines swirl around persistent rumors from ddcofannualreport.org that hes confirmed as Coachella 2025 headliner, his first dedicated set after surprise cameos in 2024 with Tems and Wizkid, 2022s shirtless Peaches jam with Daniel Caesar, and 2019s emotional Sorry with Ariana Grande. Wikipedia confirms his massive 2025 albums Swag and Swag II, cementing his status as a top-selling artist with over 150 million units sold. No business deals or other major news surfaced this week, though these festival talks could mark a touring renaissance post-Ramsay Hunt hiatus.All verified from reliable outlets; headliner status remains unconfirmed rumor. Thanks for tuning in, come back next week for more.

Justin Bieber BioSnap a weekly updated Biography.This is Biosnap AI. In the past few days Justin Bieber has quietly mixed business moves, holiday couple sightings, and renewed speculation about his next career era, creating a low key but telling chapter in his biography.Entertainment outlets including IMDb news and People magazine style affiliates report that Justin and Hailey Bieber have been photographed several times around Los Angeles on holiday outings, from a West Hollywood lunch date to a festive party in Brentwood where they were joined by Kendall Jenner. These public appearances matter mainly because they counter months of recurring tabloid divorce chatter; the images show the couple coordinated, affectionate, and firmly presenting a united front in the most photographed city in the world.Fashion and lifestyle coverage, including AOLs celebrity style desk, has highlighted the pair's contrasting but complementary holiday looks during a recent Los Angeles night out, framing them as a continuing power couple whose streetwear choices still set trends and feed social media mood boards. While fan accounts on Instagram and X have amplified every candid clip, that secondary chatter is derivative and not independently verifiable beyond the reposted paparazzi shots.On the business front, trade outlet SGI Europe reports that Bieber's Skylrk label has just launched Earth Bender, a 3D printed sneaker positioned as a tech driven, sustainability leaning footwear play. That release is arguably the most biographically significant development of the week: it extends his shift from pure pop star to long term brand builder, and places him in the increasingly crowded celebrity sneaker and athleisure space with a product tied to manufacturing innovation rather than just a logo.A year end culture roundup by newsletter writer Trung Phan cites Justin in a widely shared tweet of the year segment, underscoring how his name still functions as instant attention currency in the broader online conversation, even when he is relatively quiet musically.Meanwhile, longer horizon career reporting from outlets like Wikipedia summaries and festival deep dives continues to recycle and update the strong but still unconfirmed rumor that he is in talks to headline Coachella 2025. Those Coachella headlines remain speculative for now; until Goldenvoice or Bieber's camp makes a formal announcement, the story sits in the high potential but not yet verified column of his evolving 2025 narrative.Get the best deals https://amzn.to/3ODvOtaThis content was created in partnership and with the help of Artificial Intelligence AI

fWotD Episode 3152: Foreign volunteers in the Rhodesian Security Forces Welcome to featured Wiki of the Day, your daily dose of knowledge from Wikipedia's finest articles.The featured article for Sunday, 21 December 2025, is Foreign volunteers in the Rhodesian Security Forces.The Rhodesian government actively recruited white personnel from other countries from the mid-1970s until 1980 to address manpower shortages in the Rhodesian Security Forces during the Rhodesian Bush War. It is estimated that between 800 and 2,000 foreign volunteers enlisted. The issue attracted a degree of controversy as Rhodesia was the subject of international sanctions that banned military assistance due to its illegal declaration of independence and the control which the small white minority exerted over the country. The volunteers were often labelled as mercenaries by opponents of the Rhodesian regime, though the Rhodesian government did not regard or pay them as such.The volunteers had a range of motivations for enlisting. These included opposition to governments led by black people, anti-communism, a desire for adventure, racism, and economic hardship. The volunteers generally joined the Rhodesian Security Forces after seeing advertisements or being contacted by recruiters. Many were from the United Kingdom and United States, some being combat veterans. They generally served alongside Rhodesian personnel, though a separate unit made up of Frenchmen was formed. The Rhodesian government regarded the volunteers as unreliable, and they often received a hostile response from members of the units to which they were posted. This contributed to high desertion rates. The remaining volunteers were dismissed from the security forces in 1980 following the end of the war and Rhodesia's transition to Zimbabwe.It was illegal for the citizens of many countries to serve with the Rhodesian Security Forces due to the international sanctions that had been imposed on Rhodesia following its illegal declaration of independence, or broader prohibitions against mercenary activity. The governments of the United Kingdom, United States and several other countries were unable to prevent their citizens fighting for Rhodesia owing to difficulties enforcing their relevant laws. The African nationalist groups who opposed the Rhodesian government believed the presence of volunteers indicated that Western governments supported the regime. Historians have published little on the volunteers, coverage largely forming part of works on broader issues. The volunteers are celebrated by some modern far-right and white supremacist groups that admire Rhodesia.This recording reflects the Wikipedia text as of 01:03 UTC on Sunday, 21 December 2025.For the full current version of the article, see Foreign volunteers in the Rhodesian Security Forces on Wikipedia.This podcast uses content from Wikipedia under the Creative Commons Attribution-ShareAlike License.Visit our archives at wikioftheday.com and subscribe to stay updated on new episodes.Follow us on Bluesky at @wikioftheday.com.Also check out Curmudgeon's Corner, a current events podcast.Until next time, I'm neural Joanna.

David Plotz talks with Wikipedia co-founder Jimmy Wales about his new book The Seven Rules of Trust: A Blueprint for Building Things That Last. They discuss how Wikipedia's culture of assuming good faith and shared purpose became a model for building trustworthy digital communities — and what lessons that holds for companies, social media, and politics today. Wales reflects on how to maintain trust in polarized times, the challenges of AI-generated information, and why genuine civility still matters online.

rWotD Episode 3152: Thomas Pitt of Boconnoc Welcome to random Wiki of the Day, your journey through Wikipedia's vast and varied content, one random article at a time.The random article for Saturday, 20 December 2025, is Thomas Pitt of Boconnoc.Thomas Pitt (c. 1705 – 17 July 1761), of Boconnoc, Cornwall, was a British landowner and politician who sat in the House of Commons between 1727 and 1761. He was Lord Warden of the Stannaries from 1742 to 1751. Pitt was the grandson and namesake of the better known Thomas Pitt and the son of Robert Pitt, MP, of Boconnoc, near Lostwithiel in Cornwall. His mother was Harriet Villiers, daughter of Edward FitzGerald-Villiers and the Irish heiress Katherine FitzGerald. Thomas Pitt was the elder brother of William Pitt the Elder. He succeeded his father in 1727 to his estates, including Boconnoc.As head of the family, Pitt inherited both his grandfather's immense fortune and his parliamentary boroughs - he had the complete power to nominate both MPs at Old Sarum and one of the two at Okehampton, as well as considerable influence in at least two Cornish boroughs, Camelford and Grampound. He had himself elected Member of Parliament for Okehampton in 1727, the first election after he came of age, and represented the borough until 1754; but on a number of occasions he was also elected for Old Sarum, which meant that when he chose to sit for Okehampton the Old Sarum seat was free to offer at a by-election to somebody else who had failed to get into Parliament.Pitt was Assay master of the Stannaries from March 1738 to February 1742 and Lord Warden of the Stannaries from February 1742 to March 1751, when the Cornish Stannary Parliament met for the last time.Pitt was ambitious for political influence and, attaching himself to the retinue of Frederick, Prince of Wales, managed the general elections of 1741 and 1747 in Cornwall in the Prince's interests; but this involved massive expenditure - especially at the notoriously-corrupt Grampound, where he spent huge sums both on bribing the voters and on lawsuits attempting to deprive the most rapacious of their votes. By 1751 he had bankrupted himself, and the death that year of the Prince of Wales destroyed his hopes of securing influence or patronage for his efforts. He mortgaged his boroughs to the Treasury, allowing the government to name two MPs at Old Sarum and one at Okehampton in return for a pension of £1000 a year. After sitting briefly for Old Sarum in the 1754 Parliament, he resigned his seat and fled the country.Returning to England in 1761, however, Pitt persuaded the government to allow him to be once more elected for Old Sarum - a temporary measure, he promised, to prevent his being arrested for debt until he was able satisfy his creditors. (MPs were immune from civil arrest.) He promised to relinquish the seat at the earliest possible moment and allow the government to name his replacement in accordance with the original arrangement; but he died a few months later, still MP for Old Sarum.Pitt had married, c.1731, Christian, the daughter of Sir Thomas Lyttelton, 4th Baronet, M. P., of Hagley, Worcestershire and the sister of Lord Lyttelton. They had two sons and two daughters. He afterwards married, in 1761, Maria, the daughter of General Murray.Pitt died on 17 July 1761. His only surviving son was the first Baron Camelford, who repudiated his father's arrangement for Old Sarum, and chose himself as MP when he inherited the borough.This recording reflects the Wikipedia text as of 00:17 UTC on Saturday, 20 December 2025.For the full current version of the article, see Thomas Pitt of Boconnoc on Wikipedia.This podcast uses content from Wikipedia under the Creative Commons Attribution-ShareAlike License.Visit our archives at wikioftheday.com and subscribe to stay updated on new episodes.Follow us on Bluesky at @wikioftheday.com.Also check out Curmudgeon's Corner, a current events podcast.Until next time, I'm standard Salli.

fWotD Episode 3151: Battle of Bronkhorstspruit Welcome to featured Wiki of the Day, your daily dose of knowledge from Wikipedia's finest articles.The featured article for Saturday, 20 December 2025, is Battle of Bronkhorstspruit.The battle of Bronkhorstspruit was the first major engagement of the First Boer War. It took place by the Bronkhorstspruit river, near the town of Bronkhorstspruit, Transvaal, on 20 December 1880. Threatened by the growing numbers of militant Boers in the Pretoria region, the British recalled the 94th Regiment of Foot, which had several companies garrisoned in towns and villages across the wider area. The regiment's commanding officer, Lieutenant Colonel Philip Robert Anstruther, led a 34-wagon column consisting of roughly 250 men on a 188-mile (303 km) journey from Lydenburg back to Pretoria. A similar-sized Boer commando force, led by Francois Gerhardus Joubert, was ordered to intercept and stop the British.Despite several warnings of the threat of attack, the British travelled largely unprepared for combat, and the many wagons they travelled with slowed their progress significantly. On 20 December, 24 days after receiving the order to return, Anstruther's column was confronted by the Boers, who demanded under truce that the British stop their march. Anstruther refused, and the Boers attacked while the British soldiers were still preparing. The British took heavy casualties and surrendered after about 15 minutes; their surviving men were captured. Anstruther was badly wounded and died of his injuries a few days later.This recording reflects the Wikipedia text as of 01:12 UTC on Saturday, 20 December 2025.For the full current version of the article, see Battle of Bronkhorstspruit on Wikipedia.This podcast uses content from Wikipedia under the Creative Commons Attribution-ShareAlike License.Visit our archives at wikioftheday.com and subscribe to stay updated on new episodes.Follow us on Mastodon at @wikioftheday@masto.ai.Also check out Curmudgeon's Corner, a current events podcast.Until next time, I'm standard Kendra.

(We'll knock the other four off next year in mid-season breaks.)  With Christmas just around the corner this seems as good a time as any to follow a young Charles Dickens around Canongate Graveyard in Edinburgh Scotland looking for ghosts… And we meet the man who - most likely - influenced one of his most famous characters - John Elwes, The Miser of Marcham Park. Apologies for the break between parts one and two of The Tichborne Claimant. I'm hoping to get that out in the last week of December.  Sources this week include:  Sorry all I never took down any of my sources for this at the time of the original.

fWotD Episode 3150: The Getaway (1972 film) Welcome to featured Wiki of the Day, your daily dose of knowledge from Wikipedia's finest articles.The featured article for Friday, 19 December 2025, is The Getaway (1972 film).The Getaway is a 1972 American action thriller film based on the 1958 novel by Jim Thompson. The film was directed by Sam Peckinpah and written by Walter Hill, and stars Steve McQueen, Ali MacGraw, Ben Johnson, Al Lettieri, and Sally Struthers. The plot follows imprisoned mastermind robber Carter "Doc" McCoy, whose wife Carol conspires for his release on the condition they rob a bank in Texas. A double-cross follows the crime, and the McCoys are forced to flee for Mexico with the police and criminals in hot pursuit.Peter Bogdanovich, whose The Last Picture Show impressed McQueen and producer David Foster, was originally hired as the director of The Getaway. Thompson came on board to write the screenplay, but creative differences ensued between him and McQueen, and Thompson was subsequently fired, along with Bogdanovich. Writing and directing duties eventually went to Hill and Peckinpah, respectively. Principal photography commenced February 7, 1972, on location in Texas. The film reunited McQueen and Peckinpah, who had worked together on the relatively unprofitable Junior Bonner, released the same year.The Getaway premiered December 19, 1972. Despite the negative reviews it received upon release, numerous retrospective critics have reevaluated the film positively. A box-office hit earning over $36 million, it was the eighth highest-grossing film of 1972, and one of the most financially successful productions of Peckinpah's and McQueen's careers. A film remake of the same name starring Alec Baldwin and Kim Basinger was released in 1994.This recording reflects the Wikipedia text as of 00:56 UTC on Friday, 19 December 2025.For the full current version of the article, see The Getaway (1972 film) on Wikipedia.This podcast uses content from Wikipedia under the Creative Commons Attribution-ShareAlike License.Visit our archives at wikioftheday.com and subscribe to stay updated on new episodes.Follow us on Bluesky at @wikioftheday.com.Also check out Curmudgeon's Corner, a current events podcast.Until next time, I'm neural Matthew.

Today we're revisiting the episode that exploded in downloads this year. Because AI is already deciding who gets seen, who gets recommended, and who gets ignored. And this one hit a nerve for a reason. Here's your holiday replay: AI's first pick. Listen again. Update your strategy. Walk into 2026 making sure you're the one the machine chooses. You'll learn the real truth most business owners still don't understand: AI isn't looking at your website first. It's not scanning your Instagram grid. It's not reading your blog. It's pulling from open, high-authority platforms that mimic real human conversation — and if you're not present there, you don't exist in the machine's world. I break down: The three places AI scrapes before touching your website. Why Reddit, Wikipedia, and YouTube hold disproportionate power in AI recommendations. How transcripts, comments, Q&A threads, and conversational content become "credibility signals." Why small service businesses get skipped — not because they aren't good, but because AI has nothing to latch onto. How to place your name and expertise inside the platforms AI trusts the most. Why collaboration (podcasts, blogs, interviews) is now discoverability currency. How a single talking-head video can make AI finally recognize your name. Practical steps to make sure your words live where the machine is listening. This isn't about going viral. This is about being visible where discovery actually happens in 2026.

What happens when a new technology transforms how we communicate ideas and information? Best-selling science fiction writer Naomi Alderman joins Amol to explain why she thinks the digital age has pushed us into a “third information crisis”, which is as profound as the invention of writing or the printing press. Drawing on those past revolutions, Naomi offers some solutions to help us navigate the era we're living through. She suggests new laws to regulate the online world and potentially even a “checked internet” like Wikipedia, which is home to verified facts rather than misinformation. But at the heart of her argument is the need to prioritise real world, human connection and resist the urge to move everything online. Naomi also tells Amol how therapy has helped her and why she's written her first non-fiction book after a series of successful novels. (00:03:23) What is the third information crisis?

Idag tror man att 90 procent av urbefolkningen strök med i sjukdomar de saknade immunitet mot. Hela kulturer gick under.Under 1700-talet började de växande nationalstaterna i Europa att utveckla metoder för att hantera pandemier – trots att den tidens läkevetenskap ofta missförstod hur smittor spreds. Samtidigt som böldpesten i stort sett försvann, uppstod nya pandemier till följd av industrialismens trånga, osanitära städer.Detta är det andra av två avsnitt av podden Historia Nu om pandemier, där programledaren Urban Lindstedt samtalar med Fredrik Charpentier Ljungqvist, professor i historia, särskilt historisk geografi, vid Stockholms universitet, om hur farsoter har påverkat samhällen genom tiderna – från medeltidens pest till spanska sjukan.När européerna anlände till Amerika på 1500-talet förde de med sig sjukdomar som smittkoppor, mässling och influensa – sjukdomar som den amerikanska ursprungsbefolkningen saknade immunitet mot. Resultatet blev en demografisk kollaps: upp till 90 procent av urbefolkningen dog inom ett sekel.Denna ”mikrobiella erövring” möjliggjorde den europeiska kolonisationen av Nord- och Sydamerika. Avfolkningen ledde till omfattande återförskogning, vilket i sin tur påverkade koldioxidnivåerna i atmosfären – ett exempel på hur pandemier kan få långtgående konsekvenser bortom människans hälsa.Det är först på 1800-talet som vetenskapen gradvis börjar förstå smittspridningens mekanismer. Kolera blev århundradets mest fruktade pandemi – men också den som ledde till avgörande förändringar i folkhälsopolitik och stadsplanering.På 1800-talet svepte koleraepidemier fram över världen. Flera pandemier startade i Asien och nådde Europa via handelsvägar. Koleran var vattenburen och slog särskilt hårt mot tätbefolkade städer med bristfällig sanitet. Under perioden 1834–73 drabbades Sverige av nio koleraepidemier. Vid den största av dessa, 1834, insjuknade mer än 25 000 personer, av vilka drygt hälften dog.Den engelske läkaren John Snow revolutionerade smittspårningen 1854 när han identifierade en förorenad vattenpump som kolerans källa i London – en insats som lade grunden för modern epidemiologi. Hans upptäckt blev en katalysator för utvecklingen av moderna avloppssystem, säkrare dricksvatten och en ny syn på urban hygien. Koleran blev med andra ord en drivkraft bakom avgörande samhällsreformer.Mellan 1918 och 1920 dödade spanska sjukan mellan 25 och 100 miljoner människor världen över – fler än första världskriget. Pandemin slog särskilt hårt mot unga vuxna, vilket bröt det klassiska U-formade dödlighetsmönstret för influensa. Trots dess enorma påverkan föll sjukdomen snabbt i glömska – kanske för att samhället redan var traumatiserat av krigets fasor.Senare forskning har visat att pandemin lämnade djupa men ofta osynliga spår. Barn till mödrar som varit sjuka under graviditeten löpte högre risk för kroniska sjukdomar senare i livet – en påminnelse om att pandemiers effekter kan vara långvariga, subtila och påverka generationer framåt.Bild: Smittkoppor under den spanska erövringen, ur bok XII i Florentinska kodexen (1540–1585).

While it feels like the very concept of an accepted collective reality has crumbled around us, Wikipedia has gradually revealed itself to be our accepted arbiter of truth. How did this social project, built on the backs of countless volunteers, come to be the one site on the internet that we all pretty much agree to be “true”? Or mostly true, at least. Annie Rauwerda is a Wikipedia editor known for her incredible social media account Depths of Wikipedia. Today, she joins Adam to give an insider view on how the Wikipedia community tries to navigate our insane modern moment.

First named in 1972, the Alaska Triangle stretches from Anchorage in southcentral Alaska to Juneau in the southeast panhandle to Utqiagvik (formerly Barrow) on Alaska’s northern coast. Since 1988, more than 16,000 people have vanished from this area, and every year, approximately four people go missing per every 1000 Alaska residents. This rate is twice the national average. I was surprised when I first learned how many people disappear in Alaska, but I don’t need an underground pyramid or mysterious magnetic vortices to explain the statistics. I also don’t understand the need for a triangle since people disappear throughout the state, not just in the area outlined by a geometric figure’s hypothetical lines. However, I guess a triangle conjures up the aura of the Bermuda Triangle and suggests the possibility of mysterious forces at play. Many disappearances and other mysteries in Alaska have never been solved. Planes vanish, boats disappear, UFO sightings baffle military officers, and in one instance, the population of an entire village fled their homes to escape a giant, hairy, manlike creature. Here are a few of the stories. Sources: Conger, Cristen. Why has part of the Alaska wilderness been called the Bermuda Triangle? How Stuff Works. Gough, Cody. 2019.
