This week, the boys grabbed some beers and kept it positive while they fired off some mini-reviews before featuring a conversation about “Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind”. As part of the random year generator series, 2004 was a great year for movies, with over 50 $100m movies and many likable ones. While “Eternal Sunshine” didn't gross in the top 70, it may be the year's greatest film. Props to Michel Gondry and Charlie Kaufman for giving Jim Carrey and Kate Winslet some juicy roles and incredibly shifty worlds! As for the mini-reviews, the boys can't speak highly enough of Gore Verbinski's “Good Luck, Have Fun, Don't Die”, starring Sam Rockwell, and the intense and captivating “If I Had Legs I'd Kick You”, and the Academy Award-nominated “It Was Just An Accident”.

Two Toronto based Legal Observers from the Orange Hats return to give us details on the tactics Toronto Police are using to try to bring down the Palestinian Solidarity Movement.Tasked with keeping an eye on cops during protests and other actions, Gisela and Leon have lots of stories to tell. Together the group recently issued a 2025 Year-In-Review on Toronto Police Services conduct at protests. The report includes statistics on injuries and arrests; it warns of trends in policing; and it points to a clear strategy to suppress the activities of activists - and legal observers. Its not all bad news. Thanks to their experience, the Orange Hats are a great source of advice for organizers and activists - or anyone coming into contact with Police.

Self-care gets marketed as bubble baths and spa days. But for dancers, real self-care is often much less glamorous and much more powerful.In this solo episode, I break down what sustainable self-care actually looks like for dancers who want long, healthy, fulfilling careers. From sleep and hydration to decision fatigue, physical therapy, and getting off social media, this conversation focuses on the small, proactive habits that protect your body, brain, and soul.Because true self-care isn't reactive; it's the daily basics that make everything else easier.If you've been feeling burnt out, overwhelmed, or like you're constantly playing catch-up with your health, this episode is your reminder to go back to the foundations.Resources mentioned in this episode:Self Care for Dancers Blog Post: https://www.thebrainyballerina.com/blog/self-care-for-dancers-that-actually-worksJoin the Brainy Ballerina Book Club: https://www.thebrainyballerina.com/the-brainy-ballerina-book-clubThe Lazy Genius: https://amzn.to/45Kuxty (affiliate link)Brick: https://getbrick.appRelated episodes:BONUS: The Impact of the Ballet World's Obsession with Weight with Dr. Stephanie Potreck23.

See how the Spine Crackers react in real time when one of their ranks reads the wrong book. Spoiler: IMPROMPTU 2025 YEAR IN REVIEW!

Welcome back to Raising Autistic Disciples! After a full year away from the mic, Larah and Colin Roberts are back with a “year in review” catch-up, a few honest laughs (yes… including the legendary Pooper Bowl anniversary), and a question Larah gets from other Christian parents all the time:“I struggle to tell people my son has autism. I want him treated like every other child. How did you handle this?”In this episode, Larah and Colin talk through the tension so many parents feel: wanting to protect your child from being defined by a diagnosis, while also realizing that hiding it can create more exhaustion, confusion, and isolation. They share practical ways they've learned to talk about autism in trusted circles, what to do when people respond with ignorant or hurtful comments, and why the gospel gives us freedom to be honest without shame.They also preview what's coming this season, including conversations with autism moms, church leaders, and friends with different perspectives—because we can disagree and still be kind… and still worship together.In this episode, we talk about: The one-year anniversary of potty training success (and why you should absolutely celebrate the wins) Graham's first airplane ride… and the “Great job, everybody. We did it!” moment A scary summer eye injury, and how it revealed something important about strong connections to people, places, and experiences Why not talking about autism can build emotional walls and make relationships harder The difference between identity in Christ and the reality of a diagnosis as a helpful “map” How to tell your trusted people before you feel like you have it all figured out What to do when family or church folks say the wrong thing (“He's not autistic… he just needs more discipline…”) Why hiding a diagnosis can actually be unkind long-term The role of the church and community: we need running partners, reminders, and perspectiveKey takeaway:Your autistic child is not something to be hidden. They are an image bearer. And the goal isn't to make autism their identity—it's to live in the freedom of truth, so others can understand, support, and walk with you.

In this episode of PING, APNIC Chief Scientist Geoff Huston returns with his annual review of BGP, reflecting on developments across 2025. Geoff has been publishing this year-in-review analysis of BGP dynamics for more than a decade, and this time he has uncovered some genuinely surprising shifts. His 2025 analysis has been published in two parts on the APNIC Blog. Border Gateway Protocol (BGP) is the mechanism by which network operators announce their Internet address space to the rest of the world and, in turn, learn about the addresses announced by others. Operators participating in the global default-free zone receive all publicly announced routes, each expressed as an IP prefix and associated with its originating Autonomous System Number (ASN). Every BGP speaker has a unique ASN, and all routing information is exchanged and interpreted through this fundamental identifier. In effect, the ASN is the basic unit of interdomain routing. BGP also carries path information that describes how routing announcements traverse the network. This data informs routing policy decisions — which paths to prefer, and through which commercial or technical relationships. While the protocol itself is well understood, the system as a whole is anything but simple. When more than 100,000 ASes are continuously exchanging routing information, complexity is unavoidable. Speaking BGP is about telling things and learning things, but it's also about deciding what to do with what has been learned. This is the work behind a router, and involves holding all the information and performing routing decisions on it, so the ‘size' of the information shared and learned has a direct impact on the ‘cost' of operating as a BGP speaker (cost here ultimately means memory and CPU). For most of the Internet's history, BGP growth has been relentless, forcing operators to continually ask whether their current routing infrastructure can accommodate future growth. All technology adoption has a life cycle, and is often referred to as the ‘technology adoption curve'. New technologies start out expensive and scarce, become cheaper and widely adopted, and eventually reach a point of saturation where growth slows and replacement becomes the dominant driver. For much of its existence, the Internet has remained firmly in the rapid growth phase of this curve, with sustained increases in users, networks, and routing information. Geoff has detected changes in the pace of growth for both IPv4 and IPv6, which suggest the underlying economics behind investment in Internet, and growth in customers has reached it's saturation point: We are entering a time where BGP growth may not have the same dynamics we've been used to, and questions about capital investment in BGP routing and underlying Internet Addressing are not the same.

The regime increasingly relies on restrictive controls over civil society's monetary flows to punish dissent. In 2023, the regime froze the bank accounts of institutions affiliated with the Catholic Church, which led a Nicaraguan seminary to cease operations. Since 2018, thousands of NGOs have been forced to close or had their assets seized for alleged financial violations. In Nicaragua, authoritarian financial control is a primary way to stifle civil society.

This week, the boys head to 1945, a peaceful and chipper year in history, to discuss Billy Wilder's masterpiece about an alcoholic, “The Lost Weekend”. After Dave and John give mini-reviews about “Mercy” (2026) and “Avatar: Fire and Ash” (2025), and John gripes about his 40-minutes of trailers ahead of “Avatar”, the boys give a brief year-in-review of 1945, before John tries to convince Dave and Jeff to elevate this ‘great' movie to a ‘gold star'.

Every month inside The Lab, I do what I call a monthly retro. It's short for retrospective. The idea is that, on a regular basis, you look back at what you have just done to learn from it, course-correct, and move forward. So in my monthly retros, I look at the good things that happened, how I performed against my goals, the concerns I currently have, the changes I'm going to make moving forward, and my goals for next month. → Join The Lab → Subscribe to the newsletter → Read my 2025 Year In Review ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Full transcript and show notes⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ *** TIMESTAMPS (00:00) Reflecting on Growth and Challenges (05:27) Strong Year-End Revenue Insights (07:37) Signature Product Lab Launch (13:35) Life-Changing Chair Experience (16:23) Christmas Joy and New Nanny (19:32) Video Podcasts Drive Higher Engagement (20:53) Podcast Reflections and Hosting Challenges (26:13) Social Detox and Podcast Focus (29:04) Refining Strategy and Delegation (30:51) Prioritizing Quality Over Schedule (34:02) Exciting Updates and Reflections *** ASK CREATOR SCIENCE → ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Submit your question here⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ *** WHEN YOU'RE READY

She drops some powerful journaling prompts to help you process the lessons learned as well as the patterns you're ready to break. Ahead, Lindsey reveals how she navigated challenging moments + unexpected transitions in 2025. Plus, she unpacks why we forget our wins, how to make your accomplishments visible (both inward + outward), and the science of emotional resilience for women in their 20s + 30s.  Lindsey also shares her favorite exercises for strengthening connections, confronting self-abandonment, and shifting from performance-driven goals to alignment-based living. Leave this episode with a fresh “north star” feeling for your life + a strategic plan rooted in self-worth.
