    This episode was from a conversation with the owner of Sands Coffee Roasters, a new coffeeshop in Oceanside. As we were chatting he was telling me the story of how his make shift coffee trailer came to be. A labor of love, he showed me all the edges where he put things together, he didn't say it was perfect, but there was an inner beauty in the imperfections. When he shared that to me I knew I had my next episode. This also goes back to the philosophy of kintsugi or learning how to mend broken pieces of pottery or other items back together using powdered gold, silver or platinum. It shows the story of the object rather than hiding its imperfections. Annoucements: My good friend Jarrod Dunn founder of the T.A.P.

    This week, we review War of the Worlds (2025), director Rich Lee's modern, “screenlife” twist on H. G. Wells's iconic sci-fi thriller. Ice Cube stars as DHS agent Will Radford, juggling the chaos of a looming alien invasion and an invasive surveillance state — all through the lens of screens and apps. With Eva Longoria as the NASA ally Sandra, the film explores data privacy, government overreach, and digital surveillance. As meteors fall and alien machines emerge from every data center, the stakes go from father-daughter drama to a full-scale fight for humanity's informational lifeblood.Is this adaptation a surveillance-state nightmare or a cheeky tech‑centric rediscovery of a classic?

    When most of us addicts wash up on the shores of recovery to say we've lost our way seems a gross understatement. The bottom has usually fallen out from under our lives. We feel utterly lost and painfully alone. The world we knew is gone and no new world has arrived to take its place. We need a map to orient us and a guide to help us find our way home.This is the world Jungian analyst Dr. James Hollis describes in his book “Living Between Worlds: Finding Personal Resilience in Changing Times.” It's likely an all too familiar world to most of us addicts. Hollis says not only are we lost, but the religious structures and cultural belief systems thatsupported yesterday's lost souls seem out of reach for many of today's men and women. The series describes this lost-world and how to access the “Inner Resilience” needed to find our way home. This episode takes a deep dive into the nature of HEALING found in recovery.Show notes: Living Between Worlds: Finding Personal Resilience in Changing Times by James Hollis, PhD.

    Steph, John, Steve & Dave put down their phones for screen time with Ice Cube and his (fictional) family! The War of the Worlds has been adapted many times since its first publication in 1898, and each adaptation represented the era in which it was created -- Famously as a radio show in 1938 and the first movie in 1953 when there were national fears of military invasion … then as a Spielberg film in 2005 when there was a national fear of terrorist invasion… And now in 2025 when there's a national fear of invasion of Privacy! It's Amazon Prime's feature length commercial – War of the Worlds!  Here's the rapid recap to catch you up!  Ice Cube plays Will Radford, DHS Agent and creepster dad who should have been DOGE'd out of his job, because he spends his day stalking his two estranged children – his pregnant daughter, Faith and his intense Gen-Z-er son Dave. When mysterious meteors crash into the Earth, it's up to these three plus Faith's fiancé and Amazon delivery driver, Mark as well as Eva Longoria (whose character's name I don't know and I couldn't quickly see it on Wikipedia, so I'm giving her as much attention as Will gives her in the movie, which is to say close to none) … Anyway, when machines from Mars rise out of the meteor craters, our heroes realize that the aliens are here to chew bubblegum and steal our data…and they are all out of bubblegum. So, in a shameless plot swipe from a totally different alien invasion movie, they have to upload a virus to the alien machines to put an end to the WAR OF THE WORLDS!!!Follow us onTwitter @CraptaculusInstagram @cinemacraptaculusIntro Music: "The Builder" - Kevin MacLeod (incompetech.com) | Licensed under Creative Commons: By Attribution 3.0 | http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/3.0/

    Welkom bij Nerd Culture #223, de Gamekings podcast waarin we het laatste nieuws en de heetste geruchten uit films, series en alles nerdy bespreken. In deze aflevering duiken we onder meer in de langverwachte terugkeer van Knight Rider op het grote scherm, gemaakt door niemand minder dan de makers van Cobra Kai. Daarnaast hebben we groot Marvel-nieuws: Jon Bernthal's Punisher krijgt volgens de laatste berichten een prominente rol in Spider-Man: Brand New Day. Natuurlijk checken we ook trailers, opvallende statements en het laatste nieuws rondom franchises als Star Wars, Gladiator en Gremlins.The Punisher krijgt een grote rol in Spider-Man: Brand New DayHet MCU staat op scherp, want er gaan sterke geruchten dat Jon Bernthal's Punisher een grote rol krijgt in Spider-Man: Brand New Day. Volgens scooper Daniel Richtman zou Frank Castle zelfs meer in beeld komen dan andere helden die in de film verschijnen, zoals Hulk en mogelijk Yelena Belova. Dat is groot nieuws: fans verwachten vaak een cameo, maar dit klinkt alsof Castle echt verweven raakt met Peter Parker's verhaal. Hoe hard gaat Marvel durven om de rauwe, gewelddadige toon van The Punisher samen te brengen met Spidey's wereld?Met Tom Holland terug als Peter Parker, Zendaya als MJ en Michael Mando's Scorpion die opnieuw zijn opwachting maakt, belooft dit een stevige mix van bekende gezichten en nieuwe dreigingen. Regisseur Destin Daniel Cretton (Shang-Chi) heeft zijn handen vol, maar de potentie is enorm. In de podcast bespreken we hoe deze crossover de Spider-Man films kan veranderen – en of Frank Castle misschien wel dé gamechanger wordt voor Phase 6. Makers Cobra Kai komen met Knight Rider filmNa jaren van geruchten lijkt het eindelijk te gebeuren: Knight Rider krijgt een officiële filmadaptatie. De iconische 80's serie die David Hasselhoff tot superster maakte – met de onvergetelijke KITT, de AI Trans Am – wordt nieuw leven ingeblazen door de makers van Cobra Kai. Universal heeft bevestigd dat Jon Hurwitz, Hayden Schlossberg en Josh Heald niet alleen het script schrijven, maar ook de regie en productie op zich nemen. Daarmee lijkt het project meer kans te maken dan eerdere pogingen, want rebootplannen rondom Knight Rider gaan al meer dan vijftien jaar rond. Van Kevin Hart en John Cena tot James Wan en zelfs gesprekken met James Gunn en Robert Rodriguez: niets kwam echt van de grond. Maar nu het team achter Cobra Kai aan het stuur zit, is de verwachting hoog. In de podcast bespreken we of Knight Rider nog relevant kan zijn in 2025, en hoe AI anno nu perfect past bij KITT's comeback.Timestamps:00:00:00 Nerd Culture #22300:00:40 Donkey Kong Bananza00:04:48 Gamescom00:05:34 Supermarkten00:11:27 B&B Vol Liefde00:13:10 Twin Peaks00:14:25 28 Years Later00:15:34 Huey op zwemles00:22:10 Bugonia Trailer00:25:10 Superman nieuws (Koos krijgt een krat bier!)00:30:36 Stelling 1: The Last Jedi is beter dan The Empire Strikes Back00:35:38 Star Wars deelt eerste beeld Starfighter00:42:33 Volledige cast Star Wars: Starfighter00:45:47 John Williams houdt niet van filmmuziek 00:50:14 Stelling 2: Filmmuziek (John Williams) kan zich meten met orkestrale muziek00:53:46 SISU: Road to Revenge Trailer00:56:27 John Bernthal's Punisher is geen cameo maar de grootste rol naast Spider-Man00:59:18 Jackie Chan's stunt team werkt aan Spider-Man Brand New Day01:00:34 Wanneer wordt teasen spoiler?01:02:40 Kumail Nanjiani dacht 10 jaar in de Marvel Cinematic Universe te spelen01:04:01 War of the Worlds 4 miljoen keer bekeken01:07:17 Makes van Cobrai Kai komen met Knight Rider film01:10:28 Streamer Raja Jackson slaat worstelaar bijna dood01:15:23 Pierce Brosnan staat open voor terugkeer als James Bond01:18:26 Ridley Scott is onvermoeibaar en werkt aan Gladiator 301:20:09 Gremlins 3 toch opeens in limbo01:22:46 The Lowdown Trailer

A hybrid of documentary, spoof, situationist prank and an off-Broadway jukebox musical that somehow actually happened in reality, Alex Ross Perry's Pavements throws the ultimate slacker band into a hall of mirrors in order to ask the question: what does it mean to never sell out?This week on Pop Screen, Graham and Simon tackle all four dimensions (it'll make sense later, probably) of Perry's film: Simon from the viewpoint of an ARP fan who wasn't previously familiar with the band, and Graham... well, you'll find out on the episode, as well as discussions of the difference between West and East Coast snark, the lost original cut of the film, the unexpected afterlife of the band in Beabadoobee songs and Spotify weirdness, and Graham's sensible opinions about New York.There is no castration fear, but there is a Patreon where you can get a bonus episode of this show every month - we've just done Ice Cube's instantly notorious War of the Worlds - as well as weekly written reviews of The Twilight Zone, The X-Files and Doctor Who.

Observations from the Webb Space Telescope have identified young rogue planets with masses between 5 to 10 times that of Jupiter. These dim objects, which emit primarily in the infrared spectrum, are believed to hold secrets about the formation of planetary systems. The findings indicate that disks of warm dust surrounding these planets could provide the necessary materials for planet formation, suggesting that such systems could exist even in the absence of stars.Europe's Space Rider ProgressesThe European Space Agency's reusable Space Rider spacecraft has successfully completed a crucial test of its nose cone, marking another milestone in its development. This innovative spacecraft will allow ESA to conduct orbital missions and return scientific payloads to Earth. Designed to operate as an unmanned laboratory in low Earth orbit, Space Rider will support a variety of experiments and technology demonstrations, paving the way for Europe to enhance its capabilities in space exploration.Harvesting Solar Power from SpaceCould space-based solar panels be the solution to our energy needs? Scientists are investigating two promising projects aimed at capturing solar energy in orbit. The Innovative Heliostat Swarm aims to create a network of mirrors that direct sunlight to a central receiver, converting it into electricity for transmission back to Earth. Meanwhile, the Mature Planar Array is closer to deployment but will only capture solar energy about 60% of the time. Despite current challenges in cost-effectiveness, these projects could lead to breakthroughs in sustainable energy.www.spacetimewithstuartgary.com✍️ Episode ReferencesAstrophysical Journalhttps://iopscience.iop.org/journal/2041-8205European Space Agencyhttps://www.esa.int/Journal of Solar Energyhttps://www.journals.elsevier.com/solar-energyBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/spacetime-space-astronomy--2458531/support.

    In Plantation Worlds (Duke UP, 2024), Maan Barua interrogates debates on planetary transformations through the histories and ecologies of plantations. Drawing on long-term research spanning fifteen years, Barua presents a unique ethnography attentive to the lives of both people and elephants amid tea plantations in the Indian state of Assam. In the nineteenth and early twentieth centuries, nearly three million people were brought in to Assam's plantations to work under conditions of indenture. Plantations dramatically altered the region's landscape, plundered resources, and created fraught worlds for elephants and people. Their extractive logics and colonial legacies prevail as durations, forging the ambit of infrastructures, labor, habitability, and conservation in the present. And yet, as the perspectives of the Adivasi plantation worker community and lifeworlds of elephants show, possibilities for enacting a decolonial imaginary of landscape remain present amid immiseration. From the margins of the Global South, Barua offers an alternative grammar for articulating environmental change. In so doing, he prompts a rethinking of multispecies ecologies and how they are structured by colonialism and race.

    The Martian Craze: How Percival Lowell Created Canals on Mars | #131

    Were the Martian canals real? For decades, some of the world's most respected astronomers and newspapers answered with a resounding YES. But how did a simple misunderstanding spiral into a global belief in an advanced, dying civilization on the Red Planet? This episode unwraps the incredible story of the turn-of-the-century Martian craze, a period when fact and fiction blurred, and humanity collectively looked to the stars, convinced someone was looking back. We explore how this mania began, who its biggest champions were, and how the idea of intelligent Martians shaped science and culture forever.This deep dive into the history of our obsession with Mars is guided by acclaimed author David Baron, whose book "The Martians: The True Story of an Alien Craze That Captured Turn-of-the-Century America" chronicles this fascinating era. We begin with the story's surprising European origins, specifically with Italian astronomer Giovanni Schiaparelli and his 1877 observations of "canali" on the Martian surface. A critical mistranslation of Giovanni Schiaparelli canali (Italian for "channels") into "canals" in English ignited the public imagination with the possibility of artificial structures. This idea was popularized by French astronomer and author Camille Flammarion, but it was an American who would become the theory's most fervent and influential advocate: Percival Lowell.Born into a wealthy Boston family, Percival Lowell dedicated his fortune and his life to proving the existence of an intelligent Martian race. We detail the astonishingly complex Percival Lowell Mars theory, which proposed that Mars was an old, drying planet and its inhabitants had built a planet-wide irrigation system—the Martian canals—to channel water from the polar ice caps to their desert cities. To prove it, Lowell founded the iconic Lowell Observatory in Arizona and even funded a massive expedition to Chile to capture the first-ever photographs of the canals, which he presented as undeniable proof. This led to a major rift in the scientific community, dividing astronomers into "canalists" and "anti-canalists."The belief in Martians wasn't just confined to scientific circles; it exploded into a full-blown cultural phenomenon. We discuss the immense impact of H.G. Wells War of the Worlds, a "scientific romance" that terrified and thrilled readers. Baron reveals how American newspapers, in a bout of Yellow Press sensationalism, pirated and serialized the story, localizing the invasion to New York and Boston and presenting it almost as a news report—a tactic Orson Welles would later famously use for his 1938 radio broadcast. The fervor grew so intense that in 1924, the U.S. military was convinced to enforce national radio silence to listen for signals from the Red Planet. So, what was the final nail in the coffin for the Martian canals? Baron explains how astronomer Eugène Michel Antoniadi's crystal-clear observations in 1909 and, ultimately, NASA's Mariner 4 spacecraft flyby in the 1960s, finally disproved the theory, revealing a cratered, lifeless landscape where canals were once drawn. This entire episode serves as a powerful look into the turn-of-the-century Martian craze and how it left an indelible mark on science fiction, inspiring figures like Robert H. Goddard and Carl Sagan and shaping our dreams of outer space to this day.About Our Guest:David Baron is an author and science journalist who specializes in telling gripping historical tales about the history of astronomy. He is the author of the new book, "The Martians: The True Story of an Alien Craze That Captured Turn-of-the-Century America," as well as the award-winning "American Eclipse," which is being adapted into a Broadway musical.Timestamps:(00:00) Introduction: The Martian Saga(03:01) The 1906 New York Times Headline: "There is Life on Mars"(04:47) European Origins: Schiaparelli, Flammarion, and the "Canali" Mistranslation(09:09) Percival Lowell: The American Champion of the Martian Cause(14:52) The Great Debate: Canalists vs. Anti-Canalists(19:26) The Hunt for Proof: Lowell's Astrophotography and The Chilean Expedition(23:26) Percival Lowell's Grand Theory of Martian Civilization(26:54) H.G.

And yet, as the perspectives of the Adivasi plantation worker community and lifeworlds of elephants show, possibilities for enacting a decolonial imaginary of landscape remain present amid immiseration. From the margins of the Global South, Barua offers an alternative grammar for articulating environmental change. In so doing, he prompts a rethinking of multispecies ecologies and how they are structured by colonialism and race. Maan Barua is University Lecturer in Human Geography at the University of Cambridge and author of Lively Cities: Reconfiguring Urban Ecology (University of Minnesota Press, 2023). Maan is an environmental and urban geographer whose research focuses on the economies, ontologies and politics of the living and material world.

    In this wide-ranging talk, writer Paul Cornell dives into his latest projects and big-picture views on the worlds of comics and science fiction. We begin with his cheeky mystery Who Murdered Nessie?, then turn to his hard-hitting historical tale for Commando, exploring how he blends genre with grounded war storytelling. Cornell also reveals details of his bold new comic book company Cosmic Lighthouse-in partnership with Comixology, where he's recruiting acclaimed science fiction authors to create original comics set adjacent to their established universes—fresh stories that expand the imaginative space of their novels without being simple tie-ins. It's a creator-driven initiative aimed at building bridges between prose and comics. Of course, no conversation with Cornell would be complete without touching on Doctor Who and Star Trek. He shares his perspective on the futures of both franchises, the challenges of writing within their vast mythologies, and how fandom itself shapes their ongoing evolution. What emerges is a portrait of a creator restlessly innovating—whether he's writing a mystery about Scotland's most famous monster, reimagining World Wars through comics, or launching ambitious new publishing experiments that cross genres and mediums.

    History is full of phantom worlds—alternative technological paradigms that could have made everything turn out radically differently. Airships instead of airplanes. Rail instead of cars. Direct current instead of alternating current. Telegraphs instead of telephones. Each path once seemed inevitable, until another won out and reshaped civilization. In this episode of Context, we explore these turning points and what they reveal about our own moment, when autonomous vehicles and immersive virtual reality are racing forward in parallel. Will the future be built on radical mobility, or radical simulation? Or both? Most of all, we ask: what kind of lives do we want our grandchildren to live, and how will the choices we make now determine the answer?

    "Going into Tokyo, as long as I get back to those basic things that helped me be successful in the past, I'm going to be just fine. I can focus on the process, get back to running my race, focus on what I need to do each lap in different circumstances and scenarios, have fun, and not put too much pressure on myself." My guest for today's episode is Olympic silver medalist Kenneth Rooks. However, he hasn't quite looked like that this entire season. It left many wondering if last year's Olympic silver medalists had slipped from his form. But back at Hayward Field just a couple weeks ago in his element, Rooks gave the answer. He was calm through the opening kilometers of the U.S. Championship final, unhurried as the laps ticked by. He moved up lap after lap until he was finally leading – and he never gave that lead back.A 59-second last lap sealed his third straight U.S. Championship title in 8:26.56, fending off his training partner Dan Michalski and veteran Bernard Keter. Rooks officially punched his ticket to Worlds and then a couple weeks later helped Michalski get the standard to secure his own berth to the World Championships in Tokyo.It was a vintage Kenneth Rooks race: patient, poised, and relentless when it mattered most. Now the BYU alum returns to the global stage in Tokyo with the big question hanging in the air: can he summon that magic again?We talk about bouncing back from some disappointing performances, how the results make a bit more sense when you look at the bigger picture, managing the weight of expectations, and how he's looking to summon that same grit again in Tokyo.____________Host: Chris Chavez | ⁠⁠@chris_j_chavez on Instagram⁠Guest: Kenneth Rooks | @kenneth_rooks on InstagramProduced by: Jasmine Fehr | ⁠⁠⁠@jasminefehr on Instagram⁠⁠⁠Mentioned in this episode…Watch: 2025 U.S. Championships Men's 3000m steeplechase final____________SUPPORT OUR SPONSORSOLIPOP: Straight out of Bikini Bottom, Olipop's limited edition SpongeBob cans have arrived.
