The Dodgers make headlines with a blockbuster signing, locking up Tucker on a massive four-year, $240 million deal. We also have breaking news out of Glendale, where an off-duty firefighter has been detained in connection with an active homicide investigation. Plus, SpaceX Crew 11 speaks publicly for the first time after an incident forced an early return to Earth, and we look at the weather extremes hitting the country—from rain in Southern California to a brutal polar vortex elsewhere. And finally, travelers are sounding off as hotels ditch traditional bathroom doors, sparking backlash over privacy and comfort. If you want it shorter, punchier, or more conversational for radio-style delivery, I can tweak it. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
The college football season may be over, but the business of the sport is booming. Super agent Hadley Engelhardt and Matt Chernoff break down how Curt Cignetti took Indiana from the bottom of college football to a national championship — and a nearly $15 million payday. What does that kind of financial leap mean in the NIL and transfer portal era, and is Indiana’s run a blueprint or a perfect storm? The guys also dive into the College Football Playoff money machine, including sky-high ticket prices, nearly $250 million in postseason ad revenue, and what expansion to 16 teams could mean for TV networks, conferences, and fans. Plus, how academics and the transfer portal calendar may finally force real change. From there, it’s the NFL coaching carousel, where leverage, timing, and agents shape decisions — including why Atlanta moved fast to hire Kevin Stefanski. Finally, the business of baseball takes center stage with the Dodgers’ latest blockbuster: Kyle Tucker’s $240 million deal, complete with deferrals, opt-outs, and big implications for parity and the next MLB CBA.

Tonight on The Point, we've got a loaded panel and three debates that cut straight to the core of where the Pittsburgh Pirates — and baseball — are headed. Joining the panel: Jose Negron of DK Pittsburgh Sports, Dominic Campbell from Pirates On SI, Nutzy Poo (MLB The Show streamer), and our very own Doug. With PiratesFest just a week away, we kick things off by asking the question fans are already debating: will Andrew McCutchen be part of it — and should he still be a Pirate in 2026? Then we zoom out to the big picture. After the Los Angeles Dodgers handed Kyle Tucker a massive $240M deal, is MLB officially at a breaking point — and is it finally time to talk salary cap? And finally, with the New York Mets landing Bo Bichette, do the Mets suddenly make sense as a trade partner to solve the Pirates' hole at third base? Strong opinions. No fence-sitting. Let's debate.

Send JD a text message and be heard!The @mets make their first splash of the #mlb offseason signing #bobichette to a 3-$126M deal with opt outs in year one and two. He's also going to play 3B which he's never played in his professional career what could go wrong? Agree with @jaymahanti & @joewillie62 he played SS so arm strength won't be a concern. Everyone is concerned about an #mlblockout in 2027. I mean the Mets offered @ktuck_30 4-$220M but the @dodgers beat them out at 4-$240M. $60M a season for a player who hit three more HR's and one more RBI than @anthonyvolpe who's making $3.4M. @thejudge44 making $40M as reigning MVP & Tucker getting $20M more this season. Tucker coming off .266-22-73 season. Make it make sense. @companyadjace @thomaswdonovan @nyquil_inthe_flesh @call_me_tca_prez @paddy_bailey & @brianbarnaby had a nice debate over the @yankees great pitching staff when everyone is back healthy. Also Hal selling the team to Jeff Bezos. It doesn't matter Cashman and Boone aren't going anywhere. We are going to have a pool for win totals for all AL East teams this year. As for the @nyrangers retooling letter from #chrisdrury to the fans @ari_gold24 thanks for explaining that basically Panarin, Zibanejad, Trocheck and Fox are all unmovable and Panarin is an UFA at the end of the #nhl season. So not sure where the new blood is coming from & who's being traded to make it happen. NFL playoff picks: @buffalobills 24-10 over @broncos sorry @steve.cohn7 @49ers 21-17 over @seahawks I just don't trust Sam Darnold @partylikearochkind @dominic.etienne @houstontexans 17-14 over @patriots @c_brown518 @d__brown15 yep I did & @rams 28-17 over @chicagobears thought about going Bears but their slow starts scare me.

The horrors are ENDLESS. They CAN'T keep getting away with this. Kyle Tucker choses the Dodgers over the METS and BLUE JAYS. Four years, $240M deal. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices
Episode 132 of Tablesetters is an emergency reaction pod centered on a market-shifting decision, as Kyle Tucker agrees to a four-year, $240 million deal with the Los Angeles Dodgers, immediately resetting both the top of the free-agent market and the competitive landscape heading into 2026. We open with the deal itself, breaking down how a $60 million AAV contract represents a decisive pivot away from traditional long-term free-agent structures and toward compressed risk at the very top of the market. We discuss why Tucker and the Dodgers were uniquely aligned on this structure, how Los Angeles leveraged competitive certainty and roster context over sheer length, and what this agreement signals about where elite player negotiations may be heading. From there, we examine the broader market fallout. Tucker's decision effectively closes the door on the Mets' reported $50 million-per-year short-term push and the Blue Jays' long-term pursuit, while clarifying how teams are increasingly being forced to choose between flexibility and security. We explore how this signing reshapes leverage for remaining free agents and how quickly the rest of the offseason could now accelerate. We then turn to the on-field implications in Los Angeles. Tucker's arrival addresses a clear offensive inefficiency in the Dodgers' outfield, particularly in on-base ability, while raising both the floor and ceiling of a lineup already built to contend. We break down the inevitable roster ripple effects, including the pressure this puts on depth pieces and the difficult decisions that follow when a true superstar enters the mix. Finally, we zoom out to the long view. We discuss the draft and development costs attached to signing another qualifying-offer free agent, why the Dodgers were willing to absorb them, and how this move fits within an organization balancing immediate championship windows with a steady pipeline of young talent nearing the majors. Steve and Devin connect the dots between financial creativity, competitive leverage, and roster timing, framing the Tucker signing as more than a splash — it is a signal about how the next phase of team building at the top of the sport may look. ⚾️ An emergency decision, a market reset, and a defining move of the offseason.

KEFI Gold and Copper PLC (AIM:KEFI, OTC:KFFLF) executive chairman Harry Anagnostaras-Adams talked with Proactive's Stephen Gunnion about the company's significant progress in securing funding and advancing development at the Tulu Kapi gold project in Ethiopia. Anagnostaras-Adams confirmed the company has secured a US$240 million debt package, marking a major milestone. With all regulatory and governmental approvals now in place, KEFI is focused on closing the equity component to trigger full project drawdown. He noted, “We've allocated about a month to do that, to close that off, call the shareholders meeting to ratify everything. And we're away.” Construction preparations are already underway. KEFI has worked with the Ethiopian government to establish essential infrastructure and security, while engineering firm Lycopodium has been mobilised for procurement and construction. Community resettlement will begin shortly, followed by phased development throughout 2026 and into 2027. Production is targeted for late 2027, with gold commissioning expected by the end of that year. Anagnostaras-Adams highlighted that, at conservative gold prices, the project could deliver **over $1 billion in net cash flow** over seven years, with potential for much more if prices remain high. He concluded: “It's arguably the best margin gold project going into development in Africa today.” For more updates from KEFI Gold and Copper, visit Proactive's YouTube channel.

Shoot us a Text.Episode #1129: Today Steve Greenfield joins Paul again as we spotlight the 2025 Automotive News All-Stars, including a few friends of the show. We also talk about some industry icons' new digs. And a new survey shows just how deep Gen AI has made it into your customers' shopping habits.This year's 2025 Automotive News All-Stars spotlight not only industry excellence but also creative vision, resilience, and innovation across every corner of automotive. From digital stardom to strategic investment and relentless dealership growth, here are three stories that stood out — with a few personal shoutouts we just had to include.Grace Kerber and Ben Bushen went from a whiteboard in upstate New York to GM headquarters thanks to their viral mockumentary series "The Dealership." The duo's humor, heart, and authenticity earned them a national audience — and a new role for Grace at GM.Bill Cariss keeps Holman Growth Ventures in the fast lane, securing a minority stake in FM Capital's $240M fund to scale automotive and mobility tech investments. “We are still going to do direct investments...but they are not going to be near the size of the funds that we will own with partners,” he said.Teddy Morse has taken Ed Morse Automotive from 12 stores to over 50 with cowboy boots, Harley-Davidsons, and a deeply personal leadership style. “You can lose the fact that there's a romantic side to this business,” Morse said. “To what we do to help people get their first car; to help people get their dream car.”Whether it's Grace's storytelling, Bill's venture savvy, or Teddy's boots-on-the-ground heart, these All-Stars prove that auto leadership is anything but average.A new player in the inventory sourcing space is making waves as sellmyride brings on a stacked roster of industry veterans. Unlike traditional lead-gen platforms, sellmyride is focused on helping dealers consistently source inventory from private sellers — a move designed to keep vehicles in local markets and out of national players' hands.Chip Perry, founding CEO of Autotrader and former TrueCar chief, has joined sellmyride as chairman, calling it the best dealer-to-public acquisition tool he's seen in 25 years.Steve Greenfield's Automotive Ventures is backing the company as part of a broader raise to support U.S. expansion.Robbie Bezdek, a Cox and iHeartMedia alum, brings marketplace and media expertise to help dealers acquire 50+ units per month from the public.The platform is designed to be “always on,” dealership-branded, and built for consistent private-party sourcing rather than ad hoc lead chasing.“Why shouldn't our clients capture those cars?” Perry said. “That's what we hope, that's what we dream about and that's what we're inspired to do.”A new survey from Omnisend shows just how deeply generative AI has embedded itself in e-commerce habits.

On this episode of Conduct Detrimental: THE Sports Law Podcast, Dan Lust (@SportsLawLust) is joined by Tarun Sharma (@tksharmalaw), Mike Kravchenko (Watch on YouTube) and special guest, Don Van Natta Jr. (@DVNJr) to break down major stories including Jon Gruden's massive legal victory, Shohei Ohtani's involvement in a $240M real estate dispute, and Trump's executive order on college sports.Dan and the team first tackle Trump's "Saving College Sports" executive order, explaining what's actually in it versus the headlines. They cover the requirements for athletic departments based on revenue thresholds, the prohibition on third-party pay-for-play, and clarification that student-athletes aren't employees. Mike provides coverage of the shocking $240M real estate lawsuit involving Shohei Ohtani and his agent, centered on a luxury Hawaiian development deal. The case alleges tortious interference and unjust enrichment, with Ohtani potentially liable for his agent's actions despite being removed from direct negotiations. Dan connects this to the previous gambling controversy, suggesting this case could reveal more about Ohtani's actual involvement in business dealings than previously known.The episode also covers Oklahoma quarterback John Mateer's gambling controversy involving Venmo transactions labeled "sports gambling," examining why even jokes about NCAA violations can trigger investigations and the broader implications for student-athlete social media use.The Centerpiece: Don Van Natta Jr. joins for a discussion of the Nevada Supreme Court's 5-2 decision allowing Jon Gruden's case against Roger Goodell and the NFL to proceed in open court rather than arbitration. Don explains how this stems from the Dan Snyder investigation, the 650,000 emails obtained by Beth Wilkinson, and why only Gruden's 11 emails were leaked. The conversation explores the unconscionability ruling that could destroy the NFL's arbitration system, the potential for massive discovery including all those emails, and why Gruden has said he'll "burn the house down" to get the truth. and finally, what to watch for: Tarun previews the long-awaited NCAA decision on Michigan's sign-stealing scandal, while Mike provides Conduct Detrimental updates and recommends WWE Unreal on Netflix.

The Automotive Troublemaker w/ Paul J Daly and Kyle Mountsier
Shoot us a Text.Episode #1012: Today we're talking about Lithia Motors' internal challenge to boost service growth, FM Capital's $240M bet on auto tech startups—with strong dealer backing, and the mounting issues facing Tesla's Cybertruck.Show Notes with links:Facing underperformance in its service and parts growth, Lithia Motors is turning inward, challenging its frontline teams to raise the bar and reclaim momentum in a key revenue area.Lithia's Q4 same-store service and parts revenue grew 3.4%, falling short of peers like Sonic (10%) and Penske (6.2%).CEO Bryan DeBoer emphasized it's not a technician shortage, but a “mindset issue” among service advisers and managers.The company is expanding its Partners Group program to include department managers, offering stock incentives tied to higher performance standards.COO Adam Chamberlain sees aftersales as a major 2025 growth driver, but warns current operations sacrifice customer pay for warranty work.DeBoer: “There's been way too soft of management and lip service... Sixty to 90 days is our new mantra,”Venture firm FM Capital has closed its fourth fund at $240 million, aiming to fuel retail and mobility tech across the auto industry—with major backing from dealership groups.The fund surpassed its $200M target despite a tough venture capital environment.Investments will target AI, fleet tech, autonomy, connectivity, and energy transition.125 investors participated, including 56 dealership groups representing over 1,100 stores. Holman and Cox Automotive returned as key backers in this round.Chase Fraser, Managing Partner of FM Capital: “Dealerships really respect entrepreneurs because they are entrepreneurs themselves.
