James is recovering from surgery so here's a shortened version of last week's bonus episode for our Patreon supporters. Support The Clean Energy Show on Patreon for exciting perks! First, Brian says he's maintaining a nearly 300-day Wordle streak and why a simple word puzzle can become an unexpected source of anxiety. Then things get much more serious as James recounts a destructive hailstorm that hit his neighborhood. The conversation turns to insurance claims, climate change, and the growing financial impact of increasingly extreme weather events. The guys also revisit China's auto market, where gasoline-only vehicles continue to lose ground. New sales data shows EVs, plug-in hybrids, and range-extended electric vehicles now dominate the country's best-selling models, highlighting how quickly the market is changing. Staying with China, Brian and James discuss BYD's plans for Canada and the company's move to bring its ultra-fast flash-charging network north of the border. Could Canadian EV drivers soon see charging speeds that rival a gas station stop? Finally, they head to Finland, where waste heat from Microsoft data centers is being captured and used to warm entire communities. It's a fascinating example of how creative energy solutions can turn a problem into a resource. Plus: weather complaints, technology tangents, and the usual bonus-show chaos.

Nobody's keeping score... except all of us. From outpacing friends on a casual walk to treating Wordle like an Olympic sport, we're unpacking the strange competitions we somehow can't resist. Plus: Drew has been watching heartfelt dog rescue interviews... except they're AI? A woman says "no car, no date." Fair expectation or red flag?

Most people don't think of themselves as creative. In fact, research shows that about 75% of adults self-identify as non-creative. But what if the problem isn't that they lack creativity — it's that they've been defining it wrong? Blythe Harris, co-founder and former chief creative officer of Stella & Dot, and Mallory May, jewelry designer and illustrator, created Daily Creative to change that conversation. Their practice is built around mini-c creativity: just five minutes of creative engagement per day — no talent required, no finished product expected — that delivers measurable benefits including lower stress, improved focus, healthier dopamine, and the kind of meditative calm most of us are chasing through much more complicated means.In this episode: the science behind why five minutes works, how Blythe's near-death experience in 1995 became the seed of Daily Creative, why perfectionism kills creativity faster than anything else, and how to start a creative practice that actually sticks — whether you're going through a career transition, entering midlife, managing kids on Zoom school, or just looking for five minutes that are genuinely yours.Follow Duologue: Instagram: @duologuepod Substack: duologue.substack.com Find Blythe & Mallory here:

Send us Fan MailSomebody emails you out of the blue and says, “We'd like you to apply.” Sounds flattering, right? We start there with a real Wordle game show casting invite, then take a sharp turn into the kind of everyday stories that make you laugh and cringe at the same time: a frog surviving inside a bag of lettuce, a woman who literally breaks into a house to clean it and leaves a $75 note, and the Swatch collaboration release so chaotic people end up getting pepper sprayed at the mall.After the snack break and cookie ranking debate, we shift into the heart of the conversation: teachers. Teacher appreciation is nice, but we want to talk about what the job actually requires and why so many educators are exhausted by the end of the day. We trade stories about the teachers who stuck with us, from feisty nuns to legendary high school English teachers, and we dig into what's hardest now: classroom management, constant emails with parents and students, standardized testing pressure, and trying to reach kids who arrive at wildly different learning levels.We also pull in the bigger education picture with teacher workload and burnout stats, plus the reality of shorter attention spans and why “brain breaks” are not a trendy extra, they're a practical tool. If you care about education, school culture, student learning, and supporting teachers, this one is for you. Subscribe, share this with a teacher you love, and leave a review with the name of a teacher who changed your life.

In this episode, Jayne and Audrey talk about their favorite new Netflix shows, 'Million Dollar Secret' and 'Running Point!'

Johnny Mac reports Nikki Glaser said she has imposter syndrome while appearing on the Night of Too Many Stars lineup with major comics and actors, calling it a dream moment where she'd rather observe than insert herself. NBC canceled Jimmy Fallon's marketing-competition show On Brand after weak ratings and erratic scheduling, but ordered a Wordle-based game show executive produced by Fallon and hosted by Savannah Guthrie. Jimmy Kimmel will host a fifth season of Celebrity Who Wants to Be a Millionaire? on July 22. At Netflix Is a Joke, Jelly Roll asked audiences to put phones away during his stand-up debut, delivered self-deprecating jokes about nerves and weight loss, and later sang “Friends in Low Places,” with Andrew Schulz headlining and other comics appearing. Schulz announced Akaash Singh is leaving the Flagrant 2 podcast to focus on stand-up. The trailer for Kevin Hart's 72 Hours and Hulu's June 5 Hannah Berner special are noted, along with Carol Burnett reminiscing about learning slapstick and an interview with Toronto comedian Tyler Morrison about influences and pre-show habits.00:00 Nikki Glaser Imposter Syndrome00:51 Fallon Show Canceled01:36 Wordle Game Show Ordered02:16 Kimmel Hosts Millionaire02:41 Jelly Roll Standup Debut04:11 Akaash Leaves Flagrant04:35 Kevin Hart 72 Hours Trailer05:32 Hannah Berner Hulu Special07:12 Carol Burnett Slapstick Lessons08:13 Tyler Morrison Comedy Talk Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/daily-comedy-news-with-johnny-mac-a-daily-briefing-on-comedians-and-the-comedy-industry--4522158/support.Daily Comedy News is the number one comedy news podcast, delivering daily coverage of standup comedy, late night television, comedy specials, tours, and the business of comedy.COMEDY SURVIVOR in the facebook group.Contact John at John@thesharkdeck dot com For Uninterrupted Listening, use the Apple Podcast App and click the banner that says Uninterrupted Listening.  $4.99/month John's Substack about media is free.This is the animal sanctuary mentioned in the February 10 episode.

FOLLOW UP starts with merchandise promotion and YouTube begging reminiscent of 2007, before GameStop CEO Ryan Cohen gets thoroughly criticized by eBay after proposing a $56 billion takeover plan that eBay called “neither credible nor attractive,” which is corporate-speak for “please stop emailing us at 3 a.m.” Meanwhile, California residents might finally receive a small settlement check from Grubhub worth about half a burrito, just as Americans realize they dislike AI data centers even more than nuclear plants because nobody wants a warehouse full of GPUs boiling away the local water supply. Lake Tahoe residents are learning their electricity now goes to AI processing plants instead of people, xAI keeps adding methane turbines despite being sued over them, and SpaceXAI employees are fleeing Elon's “sleep under your desk forever” lifestyle as if it were the last helicopter out of Saigon.IN THE NEWS, we start gently with the revelation that everyone at the Musk v. Altman trial is sitting on luxury butt cushions because apparently the singularity requires lumbar support, before plunging straight into the abyss: fake AI crypto journalists haunting Forbes and HuffPost like SEO poltergeists, OpenAI launching “Daybreak” so the robots can now secure the software they helped break, Anthropic trying to stop AI from becoming evil by feeding it morality fan fiction, and Google catching AI-generated zero-day exploits in the wild because cyberpunk novels were apparently instructional manuals. Waymo robotaxis are experimenting with driving into floodwaters, a family is suing OpenAI after ChatGPT allegedly advised their son to mix drugs with fatal results, graduating students booed an executive for praising AI as if she were announcing the arrival of cholera, and Meta continues its speedrun toward becoming the world's largest scam mall while simultaneously demanding everyone trust its shiny new “encrypted AI chats.” Also: Meta is testing Grok-for-Threads, somebody created an AI poop-analysis startup that quietly sells your bowel movements to data brokers, GM got nailed for selling driver data, Lime still somehow exists and wants an IPO, and Japan's first 3D-printed house shows that the future will at least look cool even as society collapses.MEDIA CANDY features Spotify celebrating twenty years of collecting your listening habits into a psychological profile you absolutely didn't care about during the CD era, plus The Punisher: One Last Kill ironically looking like unfinished PlayStation cutscenes, Good Omens Season 3, Devil May Cry Season 2, NBC somehow turning Wordle into a TV show because every executive has fully given up, shorter waits for Severance Season 3, and Rings of Power returning in November to continue spending the GDP of a small nation on elf misery.APPS & DOODADS checks in with Apple as it prepares Siri app integrations that developers already suspect will become subscription-based hostage situations. TikTok is testing an ad-free tier in the UK because, somehow, ads weren't already enough punishment. Venmo is finally realizing that public payment feeds are insane. There's a Wikipedia clone made entirely of AI hallucinations, and an iPad arm mount sturdy enough to survive the upcoming climate wars.AT THE LIBRARY wraps up with Clowns (First Contact), Dungeon Crawler Carl, the demise of another Goodreads competitor, Kindle alternatives for those trying to escape Amazon's panopticon, and a reminder that Douglas Adams has now been gone for 25 years, which remains, in the immortal words of the man himself, widely regarded as a bad move.Sponsors:DeleteMe - Get 20% off your DeleteMe plan when you go to JoinDeleteMe.com/GOG and use promo code GOG at checkout.Shopify - Sign up for your one-dollar-per-month trial today at Shopify.com/grumpyCleanMyMac - Get Tidy Today!

The most honest read on AI adoption in legal might be borrowed from Hemingway: slowly, and then all at once. David Cowen sits down with Adam Becker, director of legal operations at Cockroach Labs, CLOC board member, and one of the architects of the CLOC 101 Academy - to unpack what has actually changed in the last six months, why his team is no longer impressed by AI but expects it, and why the real question is what you are doing with the time AI gives you back. Key Topics Covered: Slowly, then all at once: Why the adoption curve follows the same pattern as every transformational technology before it Capability over efficiency: Why the most important AI gain is being able to do things you literally could not do before The talent surge thesis: Why legal hiring is about to grow, not contract Stratifying the legal stack: NDAs to contract managers, vendor agreements to agents, lawyers to high-stakes work Wordle as a discipline: Why the made bed and the cleaned kitchen are not small things The automated birthday message problem: What we should and should not delegate to our agents The AI dividend list: David's analog notebook of things to do with reclaimed time

More than 70 MPs from Britain's governing Labour party have publicly called on the prime minister Keir Starmer to stand down, following disastrous local elections results. Several senior ministers have urged him to set a timetable for his departure. Earlier Keir Starmer insisted he would not quit, and would fight any leadership challenge.

Today's Headlines: The Iran ceasefire is on "massive life support" per Trump, while Iran's foreign minister insists their latest proposal was reasonable — and the administration responded by sanctioning 12 companies helping ship Iranian oil to China, days before Trump flies to Beijing to meet Xi Jinping, where that will definitely not be awkward. This is further complicated by reports that China was preparing to deliver new air defense systems to Iran last month, meaning both China and Russia are now actively supporting Iran, great. On the Hantavirus front, 18 Americans from the cruise are back in the US, at least 2 appear infected, and the other 16 are being monitored at a federally funded biocontainment facility in Nebraska — the WHO still says global risk is low and this is not another COVID. In other news, Trump's plan to paint the Lincoln Memorial Reflecting Pool "American flag blue" was quoted at $1.8 million — it's actually $13.1 million, no other contractors were allowed to bid, and the justification was that delays would cause "serious injury to the government." Transportation Secretary Sean Duffy filmed a road trip reality show visiting historic landmarks, which a watchdog group alleges was sponsored by Toyota, Boeing, and United Airlines — companies he's supposed to regulate — through a conveniently named nonprofit funded by auto companies. Meanwhile, Republican Rep. Max Miller was accused in court filings of throwing boiling water on his ex-wife while their 2-year-old was present — also not his first abuse accusation, having previously been accused of assault by then-White House press secretary Stephanie Grisham in 2020. Texas sued Netflix for spying on children, collecting user data without consent, selling viewing habits to data brokers, and designing the platform to be addictive — Netflix says the lawsuit lacks merit. The guy who stormed the White House Correspondents Dinner pleaded not guilty, with his attorneys arguing that both acting AG Todd Blanche and Jeanine Pirro should recuse themselves since they were both at the dinner. And finally, NBC is launching a Wordle game show hosted by Savannah Guthrie and Jimmy Fallon.  Resources/Articles mentioned: AP News: Passengers from virus-stricken cruise ship fly to home countries for monitoring CNN: Live updates: Trump says ceasefire with Iran on ‘massive life support' after he rejects Tehran's proposal NYT: Reflecting Pool Repairs to Cost $13.1 Million.

Across the pond, a royal author claims Prince Harry and Prince William’s fractured relationship began long before Meghan Markle entered the picture — insisting the brothers were “doomed” by years of rivalry and resentment dating back to childhood.

“Has Comedy Gone Too Far? Spaghetti Standoffs, Sour Candy Poetry, and the Elvis Effect” JB opens up about watching a high-profile celebrity roast and realizing it crossed a line from clever to uncomfortable, admitting, “If it makes me uncomfortable, that says a lot.” Sandy jumps in with sharp insight about where comedy, fame, and humanity collide, turning a pop-culture moment into a deeper discussion about boundaries, empathy, and what humor should really do. From there, the episode takes its signature turn into laugh-out-loud territory. Sandy confesses he's delaying getting his life back on track because of one extremely specific obstacle: a massive batch of homemade shrimp spaghetti no one else will touch. The debate spirals into classic JB and Sandy banter, complete with Tony Soprano vibes and zero regrets. Things get delightfully bizarre with a listener request that pushes Sandy to his creative limits—an original Ode to Lemonhead Candy. What follows is a sour, chaotic, surprisingly passionate performance featuring lines like “You sour little punk” and a self-issued thumbs-down that somehow makes the whole thing even better. The episode also hits peak nostalgia and curiosity with a rapid-fire question that sparks instant consensus in the room: Who is the sexiest man of all time? Tricia doesn't hesitate, declaring vintage Elvis Presley the clear winner—prompting reactions ranging from awe to mild identity crises. “Even his fingers looked sexy,” she insists, and honestly, it's hard to argue. Add in quirky small-town observations, Fredericksburg peach drama, Wordle obsession strategies, and the long-running “Babies Love” saga, and you've got an episode that perfectly captures the heart of the show: smart conversation, genuine laughs, and moments you didn't know you needed.

President Trump says Iran's latest offer is a no-go, and he's off to China this week to meet with their leaders. Are we any closer to answers? Mark weighs in on the Pentagon's recent release of UFO files. Meanwhile, State Troopers have started dressing up as construction workers to catch speeders in work zones. Mark explains what's going on and what drivers can do if this crackdown doesn't pan out. There's also sad news about a tragic plane landing that ended in a man's death. Mark interviews New York Post columnist Michael Goodwin. They talk about why Zohran Mamdani's plan to hike taxes on billionaires could hurt New York City, and Mark asks the big question: could New Yorkers really handle four years under a Mayor Mamdani and his socialist agenda? Kathy Hochul looks like the frontrunner for governor, but that could still change. And is AOC eyeing a bigger role, maybe even a run for president?  College graduation speeches are getting political, and it's causing some real drama. A University of Michigan professor made pro-Palestine remarks during a commencement, fueling debate over what's fair game at these events. Mark talks about how parents have fought to get graduation photos of their kids, especially since they're footing the bill for college. There's also an update on the recent cruise ship Hantavirus outbreak: those affected are now in quarantine. Plus, it's been 100 days since Nancy Guthrie disappeared. Mark interviews journalist Emma Jo Morris. Emma tells the story of how she helped expose the Hunter Biden laptop scandal, and how Steve Bannon played a part in bringing her reporting to light. She shares what she found on the laptop and how it all unfolded.

Notes En aquest episodi entrevistem una membre de la comunitat que va venir a Catalunya "pel bon clima, el bon menjar i la bona ciència", en paraules seves. Ella és la Fairlie, una científica californiana que actualment treballa al Centre de Supercomputació de Barcelona. En aquest episodi ens explica la seva arribada a Catalunya, un descobriment important que ha fet el grup de recerca en què treballa i la seva expressió catalana preferida. Som-hi! Encara ets a temps d'unir-te al Club de Lectura! Transcripció interactiva i vocabulari Fes-te membre d'Easy Catalan i tindràs accés a l'ajuda de vocabulari, la transcripció interactiva i el bonus de cada episodi: easycatalan.org/membership L'expressió de la setmana "en un tres i no res" ('ràpidament', 'en un tancar i obrir d'ulls', 'en molt poc temps') Bonus La Fairlie ens explica com ho ha fet per aprendre el català i treure's el certificat de C1 en dos anys. Transcripció Andreu: [0:15] Bon dia a tothom! Ja sabeu que un cop al mes ens agrada portar un convidat perquè pugueu sentir altres veus de catalanoparlants nadius, però també de nous parlants com vosaltres, que poden compartir la seva experiència aprenent la llengua i servir d'inspiració o despertar complicitats. Ja sou uns quants els que heu passat per aquí: l'Ana, la Brianna, el Kevin, el Reece, la Simone i la Kerry, el Matthew, el Camo, la Valentina, el Raffaele, la Paola, el Kenny, l'Alex, el Randy, el Reuben, la Goccia, el Kirill... I segur que em deixo algú. A la majoria us hem conegut gràcies a la comunitat que tenim a Discord. Sé que de vegades ens fem pesats amb això i que no soc del tot objectiu per parlar-ne, però estic segur que no soc l'únic que pensa que és una comunitat molt maca, diversa i activa on hi ha un ambient acollidor i motivador. Aquí, amb la Sílvia i el Joan, hem explicat moltes vegades que Discord és una web i app on pots crear una comunitat, tenir-hi diferents canals de xat i també fer videotrucades. Però de tant en tant encara ens trobem persones que ens pregunten: "Què és això de Discord?" Així que avui voldria explicar-ho d'una altra manera, des de la meva perspectiva. Andreu: [1:35] Discord és la tercera aplicació que faig servir més al mòbil, després de YouTube i el navegador. És l'espai on cada dilluns faig una xerrada a les 6 de la tarda, em retrobo amb cares conegudes i la fem petar. És el lloc on de tant en tant el Silvestre ens envia àudios per desitjar-nos un bon dia i la Nicole ens escriu bons desitjos en dies assenyalats com Sant Jordi o per Nadal. Aquí mateix, a Discord, és on fem activitats com els reptes de 30 dies i el Club de Lectura, que és quan hi ha més activitat i tenim ocasió de coneixe'ns més entre tots. També és el lloc on cada dia envio el meu resultat del Wordle i poso un emoji d'aplaudiment als que l'han resolt en tres intents o menys. De fet, podríem dir que els que hi juguem som una subcomunitat dins de la mateixa comunitat. Andreu: [2:26] En fi, ja veieu que és una cosa que forma part del dia a dia de moltes persones i us en podria explicar moltes coses més, però això ja ho deixarem per a un altre dia. Ara que he dit això dels emojis, segur que molts entendreu de qui parlo si us dic que la convidada d'avui és aquella persona que sempre reacciona als missatges amb l'emoji del cor amb dues petites estrelles. Sabeu qui és? No? Una altra pista. És amant dels gats. Efectivament, la persona que tenim avui aquí és la Fairlie, una californiana que viu a Barcelona des de fa un parell d'anys i que des d'un bon principi va tenir clar que volia aprendre la llengua local i integrar-se en la societat catalana. En aquesta entrevista que vaig fer amb ella, la Fairlie ens parla de la seva arribada a Catalunya, de la seva feina com a científica al Centre de Supercomputació de Barcelona i del seu procés d'aprenentatge del català. Som-hi! Andreu: [3:31] Bon dia, Fairlie! Com estàs? Fairlie: [3:34] Hola! Molt bon dia, Andreu! Molt bé, i tu? Andreu: [3:37] Molt bé, també. Content que estiguis aquí al pòdcast. Benvinguda. Fairlie: [3:41] Sí, i (jo) també. Quina il·lusió ser aquí i poder parlar amb tu i tota la gent que escolti aquest pòdcast. Andreu: [3:49] Doncs, a veure, Fairlie, al desembre del 2024 tu et vas fer membre de la comunitat i vas escriure un breu missatge de presentació a Discord que deia així, deies: "Hola a tothom! Soc la Fairlie, soc de Califòrnia, però fa 10 mesos que visc a Barcelona. He fet dues classes de català i el que m'agradaria ara és millorar la meva habilitat de parlar perquè encara em fa una mica de vergonya". Ha canviat alguna cosa des d'aleshores? Creus que has guanyat confiança a l'hora de parlar en català?
