Welcome to the Monday run of the Rated R Safety Show—broadcast from the Safety FM studios in Orlando and beamed across the multiverse. Hour one mixes safety with the news you can actually use: the evolving TikTok deal, Adele rumored for the Super Bowl halftime, late-night shakeups, market moves, and a world wrap from FSN. We detour through odd headlines (ashes turned to “parting stones,” a literal butt-load of trivia) and a corporate proxy dust-up.

Today’s main story: how “single-point failures” sneak in when we trust hearsay over what we actually observe—plus what that means for your culture, controls, and credibility at work. If you’ve ever wondered whether to believe the rumor mill or your own instrumentation, this one’s for you.

Interact live at callinradio.com (video, text, or audio). Hour two and three slide over to Radio Big for music and entertainment. Also: resources for mental health via TWLOHA, and a quick invite to our free Signal Theory live session on Sept 30 at 12pm ET.
