Alistair Brownlee is the only triathlete to win two individual Olympic golds, winning at home in London in 2012 and in Rio in 2016. He retired at the end of 2024 after an 18-year career, in which he also won two World Titles, four European Titles and the Commonwealth Games. He also has two second-place finishes from Ironman 70.3 World Championships. This is a conversation about how he actually trained across two decades, in particular when he was at his most dominant and changed the sport: the volume, the intensity, what he would do differently, and lots more. HIGHLIGHTS AND KEY TOPICS: Second at Norseman two weeks before this recording, on what he calls zero structured sessions. What has held on, what has gone, and which part of the power duration curve goes first. The training week behind two Olympic golds: hours, sessions per sport, the swim, track and bike sessions he built the year around, and what share of it was actually done at intensity. Riding at 200 watts with a threshold north of 400, and running five minutes per kilometre when he has a 28:32 PB. Why he was that strict about it, and the two things it bought him. High intensity as the icing on the cake: why he thinks the icing contributes less than most athletes believe, and what follows from that if your cake is small. His test for whether an easy session was genuinely easy, why feeling hypoglycaemic on an easy ride tells you something, and why he will not give you a wattage or a lactate number for it. Injuries, and whether you have to take that risk to win an Olympic title. His arithmetic on what a month lost to injury really costs you, and what that means for today. What changes when you have 10 hours a week rather than 35: the one thing he would move about the intensity proportions, and the trap most age group athletes fall into. Sodium, cramp and the gap between the literature and what athletes report. Why he is not sold on sweat sodium testing, what heat training did to his own numbers, and the taurine protocol he uses in hot races.

The transcript may contain errors and is not a substitute for listening to the episode. Christopher S. Penn: In this week’s In Ear Insights. This is the age of AI, where there is more information than ever, more data than ever, more everything than ever before. And yet behind the scenes, when we were prepping for this episode today, Katie, I said, hey, what would you like to talk about today? And your response was, I have no idea. Let me ask you a couple of different questions. One, is it that the material recovering feels like it’s been done before, or is it also that there’s just so much to choose from that you end up with what Barry Schwartz calls the paralysis of choice? Katie Robbert: Yes. So let me pull those apart. So much is changing in the field of AI and where we focus down in on with analytics, marketing, operations, and helping businesses. We do such a good job of thoroughly exploring topics, and the process that we have for creating content is so efficient that we can churn out a lot of it very quickly. So I feel like personally, the things that we would cover that are relevant to our business and relevant to our audience now there’s always another stone to turn over. But then you start getting really deep into the weeds. And where I wrestle is do you start alienating parts of your audience to really focus on those very specific niche pieces? To the other part of the question? Yes, I do feel like there’s so much information. Again, this is sort of the side effect of generative AI that you sort of become numb and blind to all of the information because there’s so much. I remember when we worked at the agency and you used to produce this report, I think it was yearly, on the number of pieces of content created. And you know, this was prior to generative AI, this was just the number would go up exponentially year over year. And you know, I can’t even imagine what that number would be now. And just sort of seeing the uptick. And so I don’t, I feel like I’m deep in the weeds of stuff that I’m working on day to day in the business. Part of it is I’m like, I don’t know if anybody would even care to hear about this, if it even resonates or if it makes sense or if we’re supposed to be doing that big thinking and like introducing new concepts and you know, doing the thought leadership of what’s happening with AI and analytics. Here’s the thing about analytics. There’s only so many ways. There’s a lot of ways to analyze data, but there’s only so many ways to analyze data. And so I feel like at this point, unless a brand new analysis methodology is invented, which I could happen, but I feel like we’re pretty good, we’re solid, you know, it’s not worth talking about again. But I could be wrong. I could just be having a very blah Monday morning where I’m like very feeling very existential of like, what’s the point of any of it? Christopher S. Penn: Which, given the macro picture, which is a totally separate podcast, is true. In the catalog of analytics that we use, that I use, there’s about 1400 techniques that span 22 disciplines, everything from weather forecasting to agronomy and agriculture and stuff like that. And one of the things that I was talking about this weekend in my own personal newsletter was how limited marketers are in their choice of analytics when you use AI, because AI naturally gravitates to what we’ve already written about. So we’ll talk about attribution analysis, we’ll talk about social media marketing, we’ll talk about impressions. Our advisor, Ginny Dietrich’s most hated measurement of all ad value equivalents. And these are all associated statistically, probabilistically in these AI tools with marketing analytics. So if you say, hey ChatGPT, I need some marketing analytics help with this, you know, Google Analytics data source, it will give you the most probable things which will be old hat. Like, it will be like, oh, have you tried doing, you know, basic trend analysis? Like, yes. Have you tried doing time series analysis? Yes. Right. And that is a blind spot that AI can never overcome because of its nature as a probability based tool. You, the human, have to have the largeness of vision and the vocabulary to say, hey, you know, chat GPT or co pilot or whatever. I’ve got this issue here and I’m having trouble understanding what’s driving the set of changes. What analytics techniques from agriculture and agronomy might be a good fit for this data and suddenly be like, I know all about agronomy, which it does. And have you tried pairwise combination holdout? And you’re like, what is even? I don’t even know what those words mean. Katie Robbert: Nope. And I hear what you’re saying and I feel like we’ve talked about versions of this where in order to get the most out of the tools you have, you really have to be curious and thinking outside of the box and that’s something, Chris, that you do very well. That’s one of your strongest professional attributes is you say, where can I look outside of this lens and see like and pull out like agriculture. So I don’t think that’s the default thinking for most. Take marketing out of it. For most people, it’s like I’m looking at a problem. I’m trying to figure out why my bread dough isn’t rising. Let me look at the fashion industry and see what I can learn from that. About, like, it doesn’t make sense because it feels like putting square pegs in round holes and I don’t know, maybe that’s sort of where I’m stuck, is maybe I’m not someone who’s good at looking outside of. Like, I’m a very rules and process oriented person. I like things to be predictable. So perhaps for me, that’s where I struggle with this concept of I’m trying to analyze my marketing data. How does agriculture do it? Like that to me is just like, why would I ever do that? That seems ridiculous to me. That’s not how this rule works. And so that’s definitely not one of my strengths. Which again is why you and I are very complimentary in our strengths and weaknesses. And you know, I just went. When we come back to the purpose of today’s podcast, I feel like, you know, maybe that’s where thinking about topics to talk about is where I’m struggling because I feel like I’m a fairly creative person. But I also, I remember I started taking art classes in first grade and went all the way through 10th grade of high school. And I, my skill set really didn’t progress. It really wasn’t something that, like, it was something I wanted to be good at. But I just, I’m not an overly creative person. I’m creative when it comes to problem solving. But I feel like I also have a really Good toolbox. But if you start to say, okay, your toolbox is now going to contain these things that belong in, you know, biochemistry and welding, those are not industries I know a lot about. I’m like, nope, I don’t want that in my toolbox because I can’t, I don’t understand it. I don’t get it. I don’t know. There’s a lot of like therapy for me this morning. Christopher S. Penn: Well, what you’re describing is the difference between inductive and deductive reasoning. So as a rules based person, you would be a deductive reasoning person. You have a set of rules and principles and concepts in a domain that you break down to specific conclusions. If we think about the 5P framework by Trust Insights is exactly that. Five different areas, purpose, people, process, platform, performance that have governing principles for each of these. And you could take that general thing and distill it down for any problem that you run into, right? And say, okay, how can I make this. We’ve you’ve talked about even making it a prompt framework for AI because it’s so good at it. The opposite is called inductive reasoning where you say, I got a bunch of stuff, it’s all very confusing, it’s all not related. What is in common? And so for example, if you look at agronomy and weather forecasting and econometrics and marketing, what is the through line, the weird thread that goes through all of them for marketing analytics, and that is math, right? The mathematical techniques that each discipline has to use that are different from discipline to get to the answers. And so inductive reasoning says, can we find those threads from these crazily not related fields, hold on those threads and turn them into something like, oh, we can use this in marketing. We have data that resembles this. How do we adapt it? And so that’s the difference. And so when we look at like content creation, saying what are we going to talk about today? If we start from that deductive reasoning perspective of, well, we’ve done AI 18 ways to Sunday. We’ve done prompting, you know, 22 ways to Sunday. Well, they’re left to do that is a deductive perspective. And there’s, that is a great way to do it because you cover everything. The inductive way is okay, say okay, this is what you flip to when you’re like, we’ve done it all, what’s left? Okay, now you flip to inductive reasoning. Say what about this weird edge case over here? Let’s pull that apart and see where it leads. Katie Robbert: Well, I mean, and this aligns with what we always joke about, that you know, what will be written on your tombstone is what does this button do? You know, and there’s a part of me that wishes I was a little bit more open, more curious, you know, I feel like I am, but at the same time, not nearly as much as I could be in terms of, you know, in this context of like breaking out of what I know. And so what kinds of advice would you give to someone like me who, to your point, like, if I do the deductive reasoning and I cover all the different known angles, you know, and I think about things from a risk averse lens, what advice would you give to someone like me to then find ways to turn on some of that inductive reasoning when I need it? Christopher S. Penn: You can generally teach inductive reasoning in a couple ways. The one of the things, and this is very important, what you just said, you said from that risk averse lens, that’s the first switch that has to flip is to say, okay, you can do exploration if you can cycle, give yourself a sense of psychological safety that you’re not taking a risk. Like going out and reading random stuff on Reddit and things or people you don’t Normally follow on LinkedIn is not a risk. It can feel like a risk because it can feel like distraction, it can feel like confusion, but it’s not a risk. And so, one of the things you have to find for yourself, I don’t know how to do it, is to say, okay, let’s create a sense of psychological safety that says it’s okay to go look under this, under the stone. You may not like what’s under there, but it’s not dangerous to you. And the second thing is those fringe edge cases where, and this is where, like, LinkedIn is a terrible place to spend time because everyone is stuck in the same bucket, right? We’re all talking about, oh, AI is going to do this. Sam Altman did this. And it’s the same theme over and over again. You have to leave that and go to the fringes, go other places. Reddit is a good place because there’s, it’s a different set of fringes. Talking to our friends and colleagues, right? Chatting with them in group texts and stuff is a great place to do that, where you start to hear very specific edge cases. You’re like, oh, we’ve never run into that before one of the things. So it was really interesting. I did a drawing for my newsletter for filling out a survey back in July. And the giveaway was a one hour. Ask me anything private. And the conversation I had with the person was an industry that we don’t work in at all, like heavy industrial marine stuff. And just. And I learned as much as I talked, like, oh, I didn’t know that was a thing. And those, all those weird little edge cases was like, that’s interesting. And so that might be a possible antidote too, is to say, like, you know what spend. Say, I’m going to spend an hour talking to this person over here. I. Who we’re probably not going to do business with them. We’re pro. I’m. I’m not there to drum up business. I’m there to say, what kind of weird stuff are you running into that maybe wouldn’t cross my desk. Katie Robbert: H. I hear you. I think, you know, I like the idea of, you know, doing more reading outside of what you’d normally read. I agree that LinkedIn is very homogenous, very bland. The challenge. And, you know, this could be again, my own personal bias and my, you know, I like the term that emotional safety. Because if I’m being honest, that’s a big part of it is it’s not that I don’t feel safe talking about things outside of what we’ve talked about. And perhaps this, you know, this is all just sort of like a, you know, a horse of a different color is that I get concerned that if we stray too far from what our audience wants to hear about, they won’t come back. And that’s, you know, that could be my own personal concern and anxiety about it. And maybe they’re like, no, give me something different. You know, there’s really only one way to find out and that’s to ask them. So if you want to pop over to our free Slack community analytics marketers and let us know. But to your point, you really. What I’m hearing you say is it’s breaking outside of those comfort zones, those routines, which admittedly is not something I am personally great at. I’m very introverted. But reading outside of what I normally read and interacting with people online is not so uncomfortable that I can’t do it. I just need to make more of an effort to do it because then it’s, you know, it’s making sure that we’re staying in touch with things outside of our own little bubble. It’s a big reason why we have the community that we have. So know a little bit of tongue in cheek like join our free Slack community but at the same time join our free Slack community because we need it just as much as the people who are joining need it. So that we’re not just locked into well this is what we’re doing. This is how we’ve always done it. So this is how it shall be. End of sentence. Like I think that by asking the question of the day it that’s partly to understand like what’s going on in your world, what are you dealing with, what are you, what’s your perspective? And I’m always not. A question goes by and we ask them every single day that I’m not like huh, that’s interesting or I never would have thought of it that way. And I think that’s such an important thing. But I never thought of that in this context. Chris of that inductive reasoning of trying to find that sort of like through line through different topics. Christopher S. Penn: I will show, I will share with you an interesting observation about our analytics from Market Slack group. There’s a, there’s a topical split by gender. When you look at the questions people ask, even that itself is interesting. You know the, the people who are male identifying tend to be asking very technical questions. Hey, I’m doing this with this agent framework and you know, what’s the best? And the people who identify as female typically asking about outcome based things like you know, what’s better for getting this done. I need to get, accomplish these things. And so one of the things because obviously, you know, equality in general is important to us, but gender equality is very important to us as a company. You might want us to do privately, quietly reach out to some of the individual women in our community to say like hey, I’d love to have a one hour private, ask many things, I just want to know what’s going on. Talk to the folks who are already reasonably talkative in the community and just see what’s happening at the edge cases of their Worlds. You have Dr. Leslie who spends a lot of time on psychology and research. You have Hannah, you have Minion who spends a lot of time on writing in AI. And that’s where you can be reasonably assured of a psychologically safe experience and still get some really cool edge cases. Katie Robbert: Yeah, I think if I’m being honest, I would probably start with Reddit forums or something like that just because that’s for me the path of least resistance and doesn’t take extra coordination and time to figure out how to, you know, book this conversation with someone. But again, that’s all, you know, minor details, but. In general, you know, so let’s say every week we sit down to record the podcast. And every week I know you’re going to ask me, hey, what do you want to talk about this week? I mean, that’s just how it goes, you know. And I appreciate that you give me the opportunity to propose a topic versus it just being, you know, led by whatever you’re reading that week, which often happens because I’m like, whatever, sometimes I have a topic. You know, tell me a little bit about your process for like you mentioned agriculture and some other industry that I’ve never heard of. And I’m guessing I haven’t had a chance to read your newsletter yet for full disclosure. No, I mean, and I do. It’s on my list for later today. Is it more that like you look at like a list of something, you go, I don’t know about that. That’s interesting. Let me learn more. Or is like does it sort of organically just come up because you’re like searching for something and it just sort of leads you down a rabbit hole? Like what does your process kind of look like? Christopher S. Penn: It’s both. It is both. This past week though was on idea transfer. So I ha. I shared some prompts, some basic prompts to look at four level naics codes which are like profession codes, oil and gas extraction for example. And I said to the soft to I was using deep seek for this. Go and find the professional academic conferences for each of these professions out of the 340 professions and then find the award winning papers from 2025 and 2026 for each conference if they had one, and end up with like 300 some odd papers that all won gold medals at their events. And so download those papers and then start extracting out what are the key lessons that we could transfer into marketing and marketing analytics, especially from these award winning papers. And some of them there wasn’t, you know, some of them it was like a position paper. But there were a lot of very technical research studies like oh, that’s really cool. Like how the European. I forget what the organization name is, but it’s the European Council of Weather Forecasting and their new neural ensembling system for better weather forecasts. I’m like, that’s clever. Instead of trying to fit a neural model on an overall forecast to fitting neural models on individual components of forecast because they can forecast better those specific components and then glue the forecast together instead of trying to ensemble the whole thing. It’s like, you know, instead of trying to. People screw this up a lot. Westerners tend to try and make fried rice all in one big wok and your home stove can’t get that hot. So you cook each set of ingredients individually and then you mix it all together. That’s this, essentially this version of ensembling. Don’t try to make fried rice all at once. Make each of the components, get them each right individually and then you can just literally mix it all together. Katie Robbert: Well, at least I know I’m making fried rice correctly. Thank goodness for that. I’m taking the win today. But that’s an example. So the topic was how would you make it a. A fully AI written newsletter with no human intervention whatsoever that would still be valuable. And so I had it to a test run and the example was that pairwise combinations for agriculture. I read the newsletter of IT generator. Like crap. This is a really good idea. Like I gotta go figure out how to do this. I was reading the results as I was recording my, the newsletter on video. I’m like, this is really smart. Like it should be. It won an award. But like I can totally see how this applies specifically to social media marketing. Christopher S. Penn: Interesting. Which comes back to you have to have expertise in something in order to be able to, you know, apply it. So you know, I know what I know about running a business. I know what I know about operations and process and all that. So it’d be interesting to see what I can find outside of the lanes that I know, you know, because it tends to feel like, well, process is process. There’s only one way to do process. And I’m assuming that’s just not true. And so I need to look at what that could mean. I have no idea. And I think this is where my risk averse brain starts to kick in. I’m like, well if you have no idea where you’re going, you don’t have the time to waste to just sort of start exploring. You have other things that you have to do to keep the business running. And I think that’s just sort of a time and resources but also a mind shift thing. Because yeah, I have to keep the business running. Do I have the luxury of time to just sort of do some exploration? I don’t know. I’m hoping to find some because I feel like that would make me a better leader if I could. Katie Robbert: And you’re like, yeah, you could be A better leader. Way to go. Christopher S. Penn: Everybody has the opportunity to better. You could, if you wanted to and you didn’t want to spend a ton of time on it directly, you could purchase. Well, you know, you don’t have to purchase it, but yeah, the new deep research suite from the Trust Insights Academy, which helps automate a lot of the research process. And where I would suggest that you start is in the epidemiology around opiates and stuff like that. Because you used to work in that field. You know it like the back of hand. But it’s been 20 years. Yeah. What’s, what’s happened? What papers have come out in that field in the last even five years that, where the math has changed, where AI has changed that field. And you can go, oh, I know how we used to do it and I know how AI does it now based on these award winning papers. Holy crap, things are different. And I can take this, what I know from back then and what is steady state now, current state now, and go. I can apply that learning of how AI has changed that field to what, running our business. Katie Robbert: Yeah, that’s interesting. That actually already gives me a couple of places to start because I think about a few of the clinical trials that were running and they were so manual because it just was, it was just manual. That’s how it was 20 years ago. And so like hand coding things and human raiders and all of that, which at the time was fine. We didn’t know any different because there wasn’t anything different. This morning we had a lead file of 150 leads that needed augmentation and I had an AI go in and label it all and it took under 20 minutes. And I ran it locally. It didn’t have to use the cloud at all for it. And so that’s today. Yeah. It reminds me of when I was trying to do lead gen for the sales team at that same organization and I stumbled across a publicly available database of substance abuse clinicians and it needed cleaning up and it needed like all this stuff and it was just a manual process and it took me a couple of weeks to do it before I could even hand it off to the sales team. And then those ungrateful jerks were like, what do you mean there’s not an email address? And I was like, you got a phone number? Pick up the phone. What do you want from me? But anyway, yeah, it is definitely interesting. So I think I don’t do that often enough. I really try to stay grounded in like what’s right in front of me. And I think that maybe looking in the past of like what I had done, what I have accomplished might help at least get some of this started. Christopher S. Penn: Exactly. There’s a lot of. There’s a lot that’s changed. But you having that previous subject matter of expertise means that it will be easier to dip your toes in that specific angle on that discipline rather than going to like agronomy where you’re like, I don’t even know what any of these words mean because like what is this? This yield, you know, yield per field thing.

This week we face an alien invasion as we review Steven Spielberg's 2005 blockbuster, War of the Worlds. We're digging into Tom Cruise's frantic dash through the apocalypse, Dakota Fanning's standout performance, and her impressive ability to scream louder than an attacking tripod. We'll break down Spielberg's tension-filled visual storytelling, John Williams' score, the film's practical effects, questionable character decisions, production trivia, and an ending that may be more controversial than the aliens themselves. Do Spielberg and Cruise deliver an unforgettable invasion, or does this war collapse faster than humanity's electrical grid? Grab your emergency supplies, stay away from strange lightning strikes, and join us for a spoiler-filled review of War of the Worlds—complete with strong opinions, unnecessary arguments, and our final ratings.

The Platt family is barely surviving, and that’s before their neighborhood is inexplicably dropped millions of years into the past and overrun by hungry dinosaurs. The End of Oak Street isn’t nearly as concerned with explaining that premise or exploring its characters as it is with facilitating dino mayhem and nostalgia for the films of writer-director David Robert Mitchell’s youth. That can be to the film’s benefit and detriment, both of which we cover in this week’s discussion, before bringing Steven Spielberg’s War of the Worlds back in to see how these two family survival narratives compare in their respective ideas about flawed parents, imperiled children, and the universal human desire to not get eaten. Then in Your Next Picture Show we consider a couple of possible alternate pairing for Oak Street, one featuring aliens, one featuring dinosaurs, and both underrated.

Everything helps tell a narrative in a Disney animated feature or short, from the script and music to the characters and effects. No truer is this than a core feature of every picture: the scenic art. These backgrounds paint a picture of the tone and context. Over the years dozens of Disney animated films and even more cartoons and shorts have set the stage for incredible backgrounds that sometimes don't get the center stage attention they deserve. But in Chronicle Books' new September title, The Wonderful Worlds of Disney: The Scenic Art of Walt Disney Animation Studios, we see so many of these examples with commentary from some of the artists who brought these creations to life. This book is written by Didier Ghez, the renowned author of countless Disney books including the They Drew As They Pleased series. On this episode, host Brett Nachman brings Didier back to Notably Disney to discuss the process of curating the art and illuminating the stories from the animators' perspectives. The Wonderful Worlds of Disney debuts on September 29 from Chronicle Books. It will also be available wherever you get books, including Amazon and Barnes and Noble. Check out more of Didier's content on his Disney history blog that showcases info on new and forthcoming book releases, as well as find him on the Disney History Institute Facebook group. Feel free to reach out to Brett via Instagram @drnachman, subscribe to the podcast, and send your feedback to notablydisney@gmail.com  New episodes of Notably Disney debut on the first Tuesday of each month.

Episode 205 – Dragons Rule the World Special Conditions is back! After a longer-than-planned break, Adam and Justin catch up on what's been happening in Pokémon, collecting, card shows, and life before diving into a huge weekend for the Pokémon TCG. Adam jumps back into competitive play at a local Worlds Celebration event and immediately walks away with the win using Garchomp. We break down the deck, why Unfair Stamp was so effective, some of the matchups he faced, and how a last-minute Switch inclusion literally saved the tournament. Then it's time for the 2026 Pokémon World Championships. We talk about Dragapult's continued grip on the format, some of the more interesting decks and plays we caught during the weekend, the difference between watching Dragapult and the slower formats of the past, and some of what PokémonXP brought to the Worlds experience. Plus, Justin catches everyone up on his recent Star Wars costuming adventures, Adam opens a pile of Prize Packs, and Adam's Vending Corner returns with lessons from another month of card shows—including why being the vendor who can find someone's random 13-cent reverse holo might be more rewarding than selling the expensive card. Question for the listeners: If you had played in the 2026 Pokémon World Championships, what deck would you have brought?

Rabbi Shlomo Buxbaum's third book is out now!⁠⁠This new addition to the Four Elements series takes a deep dive into Jewish prayer; specifically the deeper meaning behind the daily morning service. R' Buxbaum takes a Kabbalistic approach to the prayer book, the siddur, viewing it as our Sages' roadmap to the soul, providing us with a step-by-step process that allows us to reach an elevated state of consciousness.The Four Elements of Elevated Prayer guides readers through the four main parts of the Shacharis morning service, illuminating how the prayers can become a journey of connection to one's authentic self. Weaving together classic Torah sources, Kabbalistic teachings, and insights into human psychology, Rabbi Buxbaum shows how these parts parallel the four elements—fire, wind, water, and earth—as well as the four stages to spiritual mastery.This book is both for those who have been praying for years and feel that they are ready to go deeper, or for those who are new to Jewish prayer and want to jump in to the deep end! It is for those who have read and mastered Rabbi Buxbaum's first two books, as well as for those who are brand-new to the Four Elements family!You can order the book here:⁠⁠https://www.levx.org/event/the-four-elements-of-elevated-prayer/⁠⁠ or on Amazon, or at Mosaicapress.com, or where ever Jewish books are sold!

On this week's episode of History From The Back Pages, Collin reviews the New Zealand Horror Comedy film Loop Track. In all honesty you will have to look far and wide to find a worse film than Loop Track. Not as horrible as Stranded or War of the Worlds (2025) but it's up there with the worst of the worst.

Lured Up Podcast 406 - Happy Trails Live Streamed on - 8/26/2026 Listen to this episode ad free on Patreon! https://www.patreon.com/PokemonProfessor  When the pacing of the game is nonstop, even a slow down feels like a break. While we had the wrap up of the Water Festival, the kickoff of the Worlds event and Mega Starmie over the weekend, we still know that the road to the finale is upon us. We will be swimming in events and activity over the next few weeks, so it's time to prepare both on and off screen. The news cycle never cares about how exhausted we are with the announcement of the next season in Pokémon GO, Twilight Trails! While we have the key art and a few bits of information, it will likely be a few weeks before we can really start to get the vibe of things. It brings up the discussion of the importance of seasons, and if they are necessary to the game anymore. We don't really see any narrative, and the events just flow into each other. We would love to hear what you think about seasons and what you want out of them. Wayfarer is having a major update that moves it further to being an independent tool outside of Pokémon GO. Beginning on September 1st, you will be taken to the Wayfarer Website to manage nominations and all of Wayfarer, rather than remaining inside of Pokémon GO. The reaction is mixed, with more casual Wayfinders being reluctant to want to move, and the experienced map-makers loving the decision.  We wrap up with a Professor's Principle about “Protecting your peace”. There are plenty of things within the game and community that can have an impact on your mental state. We see tons of anger and negativity online every day. That has a negative impact on your peace, as it drains some energy out of you that could have been used for something positive. We discuss how finding things that being you joy while letting go of things that drain you is a fantastic approach to shifting your energy. Rather than needing to find more energy (we are already exhausted), we talk about releasing energy that we are spending in a negative way, and reallocating it to something that supports your joy and peace.

In John Scalzi's “When the Yogurt Took Over” a popular breakfast staple decides it's good for everyone. The reader in Jin Ha. Chatbots and A.I. can be helpful—but sometimes too helpful--as we hear in Alexandra Chang's “Me and My Algo,” read by Catherine Cohen. And Jemisin herself reworks a classic by Ursula K.

Paula and Eric are back from five days in Kona. Riding the Queen K in both calm and full-crosswind conditions, running the Energy Lab, and getting the lay of the land before race week. Eric also cracked a rim on post-hurricane debris in the shoulder. Meanwhile, Paula made the Canadian national team for UCI Time Trial Worlds in Montreal and had to turn it down.

We preview the upcoming Yu-Gi-Oh Worlds happening this weekend, plus the return of Pokemon theft, Grand Theft Auto VI leaks, and Microsoft's disc to digital feature!

I just finished reading my 83rd book of the year, Bernd Heinrich's “The Common Uncommon.” Bernd is the author of many books about the natural world, including Mind of the Raven, Winter World, The Geese at Beaver Bog, A Year in the Maine Woods, and many, many others. Oh—he's also a world record holder for ultra-marathon running: In 1983, he set an American record for a 24-hour run of 156 miles, 1388 yards in a race in Maine. A year later, he set an American record for running 100 miles in a little over 12 hours. And a year after that, he set the American track record of 7:00:12 for running 100 kilometers, in the process becoming the only American man to hold both the road and track American records for the same event. In fact, he wrote a book about running called Why We Run, which is fascinating. “The Common Uncommon,” the book I just finished, is all about curiosity, and it takes place in the woods surrounding his cabin in Maine, where much of his field research takes place. But as I was reading Bernd Heinrich's book, I was also re-reading Karen Bakker's book, “The Sounds of Life: How Digital Technology is Bringing Us Closer to the Worlds of Animals and Plants.” The two books together hit me hard.

Jadyn Keeler will be the first to admit that the further the race distance, the happier she is. That love for going long was on full display last weekend in Edmonton at the Canadian Half Marathon Championships, where even a measurement error that added nearly 700m to the stated race distance couldn't dampen her professional, and half marathon, debut. In just her second-ever road race, Keeler ran away from an historically deep women's elite field to claim her first national title. With the win, the 23 year old out of Barrie Ontario punched her ticket to next Month's World Road running Championships, where she'll look to keep the good times going against a world class field in Copenhagen, Denmark. Fresh off a move to Flagstaff Arizona to join the adidas Golden Peaks Track Club and kick off her pro career, Jadyn joins the show to recap her breakout half debut, set the tone for next month's World Championships, and share what she's most looking forward to as she takes on the world of professional road racing.

David Robert Mitchell’s The End of Oak Street drops an ordinary family into extraordinary circumstances, forcing them to focus all their energy on surviving— and maybe, just maybe, learning to understand each other along the way. That structure, combined with Oak Street’s Spielbergian spectacle, pointed us toward 2005’s War of the Worlds, which fuses H.G. Wells’ 1898 novel to images and emotions that draw on the attacks of 9/11. How that approach holds up a quarter-century removed from the events that inspired it is up for discussion this week, along with where War of the Worlds falls on the Steven Spielberg Alien-Encounter Continuum, and just how close that sentimental ending comes to ruining the movie entirely. Then in Feedback, a listener, with an assist from Orson Welles, invites us to get galaxy-brained on the nature of homage as it relates to cinema generally and this podcast specifically. Please share your thoughts about War of the Worlds, The End of Oak Street, or anything else in the world of film, by sending an email or voice memo to comments@nextpictureshow.net, or leaving a short voicemail at (773) 234-9730.
