Tim - RFOFF Commodore 64 and 128 V1.1 - by Mark from The Retro Channel on YouTube. This is a replacement for your janky old RF modulator for all C64 and 128 revision boards. Get rid of that shadow, fuzzy images and remove the jailbars. New 1.1 version simplifies the mod required to remove the jailbars with a new mod for the board running form a socket that the VICII slots in to.

The Male Room with Dr. Jesse Mills
As Director of The Men’s Clinic at UCLA, Dr. Jesse Mills has spent his career helping men understand their bodies, their hormones, and their health. Now he’s bringing that expertise to The Male Room — a podcast where data-driven medicine meets common sense. Each episode separates fact from hype, science from snake oil, and gives men the tools to live longer, stronger, and happier lives. With candor, humor, and real-world experience from the exam room and the operating room, Dr. Mills breaks down the latest health headlines, dissects trends, and explains what actually works — and what doesn’t. Smart, straightforward, and entertaining, The Male Room is the show that helps men take charge of their health without the jargon.
