The Denver multifamily market just handed investors something they haven’t seen in a decade. Soft demand, motivated sellers, and seller credits big enough to buy your rate down into the fives. Right now, deals that didn’t pencil two years ago are starting to look like real opportunities for both house hackers and landlords. Host Chris Lopez sits down with Jeff White, Envision Advisors broker and active investor who just closed on his 10th house hack, plus Lender Troy Howell from Nova Home Loans. Jeff bought down his most recent purchase to 5.625% using seller credits, and the three break down exactly how he did it. The trio walks through three live Front Range deals — a Lakewood side-by-side duplex at $769K, an Aurora triplex at $625K, and a Wheat Ridge duplex at $775K. Each one gets analyzed through two lenses. First as a house hacker putting 5% down. Then as an investor at 25% down. The Lakewood duplex can house hack for $133 a month and cash flow $1,000 a month in year two. The Aurora triplex starts break-even and hits $1,000 a month after a few rent adjustments and one Section 8 conversion. Jeff and Troy also unpack the rules of thumb that matter right now. The 2% cash-on-cash benchmark for Denver multifamily. The $32K cost of waiting three years to buy. Why a soft market with higher rates is actually an investor’s best friend. And the property manager debate every new landlord wrestles with. In this episode we cover: How to house hack a Lakewood duplex for $133 a month and cash flow $1K/month in year two Why side-by-side duplexes rent for more than up-down layouts and attract better tenants The $7K to $8K basement bedroom add that changes the deal math How Jeff bought his rate down to 5.625% using seller credits in a soft market Why renewing leases before listing kills your buyer pool and sale price The 2% cash-on-cash benchmark every Denver multifamily investor should know The $32K cost of waiting three years for “perfect” market conditions Whether you’re looking at your first house hack or your tenth optimization play, this episode shows you exactly how the math works on real Denver deals today.

Will Scottie Scheffler continue to act like Thanos and dominate Jack's Place, or is there a smart way to bet this tournament without him?In this episode of Two Off the Tee, Keith Flemming and Scott Porter break down the 2026 Memorial Tournament at Muirfield Village. The guys dive deep into why post-renovation Muirfield Village has become the second toughest non-major venue on tour, featuring brutal 4-inch rye rough and massive penalties for missed fairways. They debate whether you should anchor your DraftKings and FanDuel DFS lineups with heavy hitters like Scottie Scheffler and Rory McIlroy, or pivot to incredible value plays sitting in the mid-to-low $6K and $7K ranges.Timestamps:0:00 - The Memorial Tournament DFS Picks & Best Bets1:09 - Tournament/Venue Preview (Muirfield Village)12:12 - DFS Plays25:31 - Betting CardWhat you'll learn:Why the real betting value this week lies strictly in top 5, top 10, and top 20 wagers instead of traditional outrights.How to approach a unique 70-player field where nearly the entire pool makes the cut, and how that alters your DFS strategy.Which core anchors are absolute locks for your cash game lineups.Under-the-radar longshots and sleepers—including a wild, statistically backed "old man" narrative play.Players Discussed:Scottie Scheffler, Rory McIlroy, Sep Straka, Nick Taylor, Sunjae Im, Tony Finau, Tom Hoge, Russell Henley, Cameron Young, Jason Day, Patrick Cantlay, Sam Burns, Alex Fitzpatrick, and Brandt Snedeker."Scottie Scheffler is minus 148 to top five.

After her car broke down, a daily rental owner gifted her a vehicle for $250 with new tires and fresh oil, House of Neighborly Services helped with housing, and she's now thriving with stable housing, a $4 raise, and representing her cleaning agency at networking groups across Fort Collins.

Jungle turning up in the darndest places tonight, as is… saxophone? Jazz stretched to its limits, and electronica during wartime… LISTEN AGAIN in the darndest places – stream on demand from fbi.radio, podcast here. Butthole Surfers – Imbuya [Sunset Blvd] Never thought I’d be playing Butthole Surfers on Utility Fog. Not that they weren’t an impeccably experimental punk/noise band in their earlier days. Not that Gibby Haines didn’t do the greatest impromptu guest spot ever on Ministry’s “Jesus Built My Hotrod“. Not that “Pepper” isn’t a classic ’90s alt.rock/trip-hop crossover hit. But still, they haven’t been active for a long while, so it’s altogether a surprise that they’ve decided to release their “long lost” follow-up to Electric Larryland, the album that featured “Pepper”. For various reasons – label shenanigans etc – it wasn’t released in the form they wanted, with some songs reworked on the eventual next album Weird Revolution. Fans have known about The Last Astronaut, and heard leaked copies for decades, but now we’re getting it proper-like, and whaddayaknow, the second song they give us is alt rock/industrial punk with amen breaks, because jungle will never die. The break gets pretty nicely tweaked in the middle 8, while the guitar chugs along like a sped-up track from that Ministry album. Picastro – Fell The Family Tree [We Are Busy Bodies/Bandcamp] Liz Hysen’s band Picastro has been going for a very long time – since 1998 – with a changeable lineup that’s usually left-of-centre, featuring viola or cello (Hysen herself plays violin), with various luminaries of the Toronto scene involved, including Owen Pallett and Nick Storring. Hysen’s songs are often dark & creepy, often uncomfortably intimate, and the strings may be used atonally as often as they’re beautiful. It’s true to say that while every Picastro song sounds like Picastro, every Picastro album is different, and their forthcoming Double On Time may be more electronic, based on this lovely – and yes, creepy – first single “Fell The Family Tree”. Notable for us here at Utility Fog, the album is co-produced by Tim Condon of Fresh Snow, whose debut as Mirrored Silver Sea was a UFog fave in 2008, and who moved from Melbourne to Toronto not long after it was released. It’s great to hear his many contributions here alongside Liz Hysen’s singular vision. Carl Gari – Swim feat. Polygonia [Molten Moods/Bandcamp] Most of us know German band Carl Gari from their incredibly strong albums made with Egyptian singer/trumpeter/poet/composer Abdullah Miniawy, on AD93 and Amphibian Records. Between those two releases, the band & singer released a live album on Molten Moods, and it’s to that label that Carl Gari now return for their self-titled album, forthcoming in June. This choppy beats of the second single are joined by multi-tracked vocals from Munich-based Polygonia, herself a producer of bass & other dancefloor music. james K – On God (Roza Terenzi Remix) [AD93/Bandcamp] Following her vaporwave-trip-hop album Friend from last year, james K now reaches out for some heavy-duty Friends to remix the album. Roza Terenzi is Katie Campbell, originally from Perth, then Melbourne, now Europe, also one third of trip-hop band trickpony. She takes the jangly indie song “On God” and dubs it out with vocal delays and chunkier beats – one of the best remixes of the set. Lyra Pramuk – Ending (Djrum Endless Rework) [7K/Bandcamp] The remix has in a sense always been at the heart of the work of operatically & classically-trained composer & producer Lyra Pramuk, whether it’s sampling and processing her own voice, or commissioning huge remix compilations as on 2021’s Delta. Last year she started her own label pop.soil, but simultaneously joined 7K (!K7‘s classical/ambient imprint that they’re back-referencing as 7Klassik), releasing the beautiful Hymnal in June. In June this year comes Hymnal (Resung), in which her voice and the strings of Sonar Quartett are remixed by seven of her colleagues – and who better than the classical-tuned beatmaster Djrum as the first to be released? dgoHn – I Couldn’t Remember So I Made Something Up [Planet µ/Bandcamp] Here are two tastes that sure go well together – the first release by drumfunk genius dgoHn (aka John Cunnane) on Planet µ! All signs point to Tessares being vintage dgoHn, with the melodic focus of label boss µ-Ziq – and dgoHn did have an album with Macc on Aphex Twin’s Rephlex label (digital available here), so IDM isn’t exactly foreign to his style of drum’n’bass. I’m certain this will be a joy. SPECIAL REQUEST – Uncanny Valley (gyrofield remix) [Timedance/Bandcamp] When techno/tech house mainstay Paul Woolford unveiled his Special Request alter ego in 2012 with a series of 12″s and remixes, it was revolutionary not just for Woolford but for the nascent jungle revival, representing a new take on the ’90s jungle revolution, and pre-empting the still-current jungle revival by at least a couple of years (well it depends how you count it – Sully’s Blue double EP was 2014, despite the Bandcamp date). As you know, Woolford has used Special Request for all music of the hardcore continuum by now, but for Batu’s Timedance he’s dropped a piece of hardcoreish drum’n’bass. It’s backed by two remixes: Metrist‘s bass heavy slow-fast take and gyrofield‘s more abstracted weird-jungle. Weird dancefloors unite! los pulpitos – ii ii ii [Crammed Discs/Bandcamp] los pulpitos – Archipelago [Crammed Discs/Bandcamp] Since the early ’80s Belgian label Crammed Discs has been the home for postpunk and world music of all sorts as well as quite a lot of electronica. Techno & electronica producer Dirk Leyers here teams up with Felipe Salmon of Peruvian duo Dengue Dengue Dengue under the name los pulpitos (the little octopuses). Their debut EP Octopean Union from last year was a lovely piece of underwater electronica, combining techno & acid vibes with friendly drum’n’bass/jungle and those South & Central American percussive forms that Dengue Dengue Dengue nurtured. The new album Tentacletek is similarly-formed and both are absolutely lovely, just the right combo of dreamy & danceable. Appleblim – Thunderstorm [Sneaker Social Club/Bandcamp] Laurie Osborne as Appleblim was a key figure in the outward dissemination of dubstep with the Skull Disco label he ran with Sam Shackleton, twisting dubstep’s template to include technoid rhythms. Since then both artists’ oeuvres have turned sideways into other realms, but Appleblim’s always cleaved closer to the dancefloor. Here he’s joined with Sneaker Social Club for a third time, with melodic, hardware-driven rave tracks that float somewhere between drum’n’bass, 2-step, dubstep, weightless and some kind of acidic disco. Always brilliant. Rob Smith – Revolve (feat Tony Wrafter) [RSD Bandcamp] Here’s an unusual project for Rob Smith of Bristol trip-hop originals Smith & Mighty and junglists More Rockers. As RSD, Smith has also made forays into dubstep, indeed since early in the genre’s nascence, as well as dub more broadly. The makers of the underground film Urtobēn – Vienna’s illegal Artforms (more about graffiti and parkour activities than music itself) clearly felt RSD’s urban music styles suited the film’s aesthetic, and now he’s released the soundtrack on his Bandcamp, with tracks from many of his projects and a few fellow travellers. The previously-unreleased (I think!) jungle track I played tonight features trumpeter Tony Wrafter, a longtime Smith & Mighty fellow traveller, who’s also worked a lot with the On-U Sound stable. Ital Tek – Kill Switch [Planet µ/Bandcamp] I first played Alan Myson’s music as Ital Tek in 2007, pretty early in the dubstep’s expansion out from East London. He’d made a bit of breakcore/IDM before this, but his dubstep was quickly picked up by Mike Paradinas’ Planet µ, with all four tracks on the Blood Line EP certified bangers. He moved into a more purple phase, and via various other styles – some more ambient, some more industrial – we arrive at Mind Abandon. Here Myson is taking a bit more of a hardware approach, and again is mixing ambient with some more post-industrial expression, not exactly IDM or dubstep but not entirely separate either – especially the track I played tonight goes from punishing industrial bass into cyberpunk ambient synthesis. I’ve found for years now that Ital Tek albums don’t initially grab me, then I come back to them after a bit and I’m like What? This is fucking great. And yeah, this is great. An underrated talent, honestly. Jensen Interceptor – Flux Entrance [Peder Mannerfelt Produktion] Sydney-born producer Jensen Interceptor now finds himself based in Stockholm, so it makes sense that his last couple of EPs have been released by Pedder Mannerfelt‘s Produktion. Synthetic Seduction is definitely “future bass”, aimed squarely at the dancefloor; straightforward enough, but melodic and super bouncy. Rodja – Ajam (Version) [XCPT/Bandcamp] Pietro De Ruggieri is a producer from Mantera in Italy, releasing music as Rodja, which suggests a particularly Aussie pronunciation of “Rodger”, but presumably isn’t. De Ruggieri has spent some time in Tehran, and some of the music on his new album Third Force was produced there. It’s a phenomenal set of dub techno and other dubby bass music, with slippery production but emphatic beats, beautifully textured. Recommended. Paperclip Minimiser – TT A1 [Blank Mind/Bandcamp] Speaking of pitch-perfect updated dub techno, John Howes’ Paperclip Minimiser has the goods. This is far more ascetic than Rodja, a sound that will be familiar if you checked out Howes’ second album on Peak Oil a few weeks ago. Brilliant. Ptastvo – Bowls With Souls [I Shall Sing Until My Land Is Free/Bandcamp] Ukrainian label I Shall Sing Until My Land Is Free (based, with its progenitors, in Berlin since Russia’s war) here brings an album from Volodymyr Ponikarovskyi aka Ptastvo, who uses found sounds along with electronics and musical instruments to evoke the feeling of imbalance and the heightened emotions of living in wartime. It’s impressively varied music, and even at its most electro-acoustic (e.g. the literal metal bowls sampled on “Bowls With Souls”) it retains a connection to dance music, or at least music with beats. Quite an epic journey, one to listen to on a nighttime drive perhaps – or lie back and listen on headphones wherever you are. Bobby Ingham – Easy Mush [Sneaker Social Club/Bandcamp] Bobby Ingham – I Feel So Good I Swear I Could Fly [Sneaker Social Club/Bandcamp] On Angel of the North, released on Low End Activist‘s Sneaker Social Club, Leeds-born interdisciplinary artist Bobby Ingham echoes the label boss’s excavation of his Oxford council estate origins, featuring Ingham’s grandmother and Ingham’s own spoken word, with spookily discordant synths and fragmented rhythms tracing a skeleton of UK bass music, from grime to r’n’b-laced trip-hop. Berndt / Schmidt – Gecko Lazzaro [Thrill Jockey/Bandcamp] Drew Daniel, one half of Matmos, is quite prolific outside of the beloved duo, with a varied solo career as The Soft Pink Truth as well as various collaborations. It’s less common to hear solo or other non-Matmos music from Drew’s partner Martin M.C. Schmidt, so the new album Cloud Machines, which finds Schmidt working with Baltimore experimental mainstay John Berndt, should make us sit up and listen. The humour and weirdness of Matmos is very much present, but its exploratory sound – from the first couple of singles – takes in Krautrock studio experimentation, postpunk out-rock and any other leftfield musical non-traditions. Harrington, Jaffe, Shiroishi – FRACTAL HASH [AKP Recordings/Bandcamp] Via LA label AKP Recordings, Making Colors is the second improvised wonder from three talented musicians who work comfortably across genres. Dave Harrington may be best known for his collaboration with Nicolas Jaar, Darkside, Max Jaffe for the art rock/avant-pop of JOBS and drumming in Amirtha Kidambi’s Elder Ones, and Patrick Shiroishi for his solo saxophone & sound-art as well as hardcore punks The Armed, contemporary music ensemble Wild Up and much more. This spontaneous music can sound like postrock at one time, then free jazz or psychedelic noise, or ambient, all filtered through electronic processing. Rad. Adam Schatz – A Voice Screaming All Aboard (feat. Carmen Quill) [Jealous Butcher Records/Bandcamp] Speaking of jazzers in smudged genres, Adam Schatz is a saxophonist and keyboard player who’s played with prominent indie artists like Japanese Breakfast, This Is The Kit and many others, and his Civil Engineering Vol. 1 is an enjoyable selection of melodic jazz made even better with the double bass of Carmen Quill on most tracks, and Dawn of Midi drummer Qasim Naqvi on a couple too. Purelink & Rainy Miller – Barrons Hotel (I, To, Thee.) [Fixed Abode] Arriving with no fanfare or explanation is this 2-tracker from Manchester producer/singer/iconoclast Rainy Miller, on his Fixed Abode imprint, collaborating with US electronica trio Purelink. Gorgeous smeared electronics with Rainy Miller’s typically morose, yet cutting, work. Listen again — ~222MB

Most people think Cabo's beaches are only for looking, not for swimming. That idea has shaped the way many people see the destination for years, but it only tells part of the story. In this episode, Nick sits down with Yair, race director of the Los Cabos Cortes Open, to talk about the reality behind that perception and why open water swimming has been steadily growing in Los Cabos.Together, they explore how the Los Cabos Cortes Open began, how it has evolved into a stronger event with each edition, and why Palmilla Beach has become the ideal setting for a race built around experience, community, and destination appeal. Yair shares what makes the event special, from its 1K, 3K, 5K, and 7K distances to its goal of attracting both first-time swimmers and more experienced athletes from across Mexico and beyond.The conversation also goes beyond the event itself. Nick and Yair talk about the beaches in Los Cabos that people can actually swim, the local misconceptions around ocean conditions, the growth of swim culture in the region, and the bigger opportunity Los Cabos has as a destination for sports tourism. They also discuss Yair's own background in the sports world, his transition from triathlon into swimming, and the role events like this can play in building a healthier, more connected community.From Palmilla and Chileno to the broader future of open water in Baja California Sur, this episode offers a different way of thinking about Cabo. Not just as a place to visit, but as a place where sport, lifestyle, community, and destination identity are starting to connect in a much more meaningful way. If you think you already know Cabo, this conversation may change your mind.Know more about Los Cabos Cortés Open here

Welcome to your weekly UAS News Update. We have four stories for you this week. The Avata 360 is out, Second, DJI sues Insta360 just days before a major product launch, BRINC launches their new Guardian drone with Starlink integration, And micro-drones finally reach the bottom of the Fukushima nuclear reactor. Let's get to it.First up, the Avata 360 is out! It comes with 8K, 360° imaging, a 1 inch equivalent sensor, and 8K/60FPS in HDR! The Avata 360 also comes with the ability to fly the drone as a normal Avata, capturing 4K60FPS in single lens mode. Other features include obstacle avoidance in 360 mode, 23 minutes of flight time, integrated propeller guards, 42GB of internal storage, and replaceable front lenses! And the question that everyone will ask in the live on Monday: Compatible goggles include the Goggles 3 or Goggles N3 when using the Motion controller 3 or the FPV controller. In addition, the Avata 360 is compatible with the RC 2, RC-N2 and RC-N3.Speaking of, DJI has filed a patent ownership lawsuit against Insta360's parent company in China. They are targeting six patents that cover core drone technologies like flight control systems, structural design, and image processing.DJI is using a specific Chinese intellectual property law for this case, claiming these are "service inventions" created by former DJI engineers who went to work for Insta360. But Insta360's founder is pushing back hard. He stated that the main flight control patent in question is just a one-button "building dive" feature that isn't even used in their products. He also pointed out that Insta360 actually holds 28 patents that DJI products allegedly infringe upon.New up, BRINC has unveiled the Guardian, their next-generation Drone as First Responder, or DFR, platform. They also announced a new Seattle manufacturing facility to scale up production. The Guardian is the world's first Starlink-connected drone built for 911 response.BRINC claims the Guardian has an operational range of 8 mile and a flight time of 62 minutes! The drone features IP55 weather resistance, making it great for flying in the rain. The camera features 4K video with a 640x total zoom and dual HD thermal zoom cameras. In addition, BRINC has released the Guardian Station, a robotic charging nest that automatically swaps batteries and reloads payloads like Narcan or flotation devices without any human intervention.Last up, we have a real-world drones-for-good story! Fifteen years after the devastating earthquake and tsunami, palm-sized micro-drones have successfully flown inside the Unit 3 reactor at Fukushima and finally reached the bottom of the reactor pressure vessel.These tiny drones measure just 5.1 by 4.7 by 1.6 inches and weigh only 3.3 ounces, including the battery. Despite their small size, they carry a 2.7K camera shooting at 60 frames per second, two LED lights producing 380 lumens, and built-in radiation sensors. The airframes are IP52 rated and built to withstand up to 200 Gray of cumulative radiation exposure. During 13-minute flights, the drones mapped the pedestal floor and captured images of displaced control rod guide tubes and melted fuel debris. To keep the area completely airtight, crews used a custom seal box system to deploy and recover the drones without breaking containment. This is an absolutely incredible engineering achievement. A drone the size of a paperback book just mapped one of the most dangerous environments on earth, serving as a perfect reminder of why this technology is so important.Join us later in the community for Post Flight, where we'll discuss these stories and share our opinions that might not be suitable for YouTube. And we'll see you on Monday for the live.https://dronexl.co/2026/03/24/brinc-guardian-drone-starlink-911-response/https://dronexl.co/2026/03/23/dji-sues-insta360-patent-lawsuit-avata-360/https://dronexl.co/2026/03/23/drones-fly-fukushima-reactor/

True Faith: Trusting in God's Plan 'But If Not'. ACU Sunday Series. The Most Inspiring General Conference Talk on Faith You'll Ever Hear! True Faith: Trusting in God's Plan 'But If Not' In this inspirational video, Elder Dennis E. Simmons reflects on his youthful misunderstanding of faith through a story from his eighth-grade basketball tournament. He emphasizes that true faith is more than wishful thinking—it's a deep trust in Jesus Christ. Using the biblical story of Shadrach, Meshach, and Abednego, Elder Simmons illustrates how true faith means trusting God even when outcomes don't align with our desires. He explores how figures such as Abraham, Daniel, and Paul displayed unwavering faith under trials, demonstrating that great challenges can cultivate greater spiritual strength. The address underlines that the world is a test of faith, administered by a loving Heavenly Father, and highlights the importance of maintaining faith in God's plan, even amidst suffering and uncertainty.

What separates a hair extension stylist earning $4,000 a month from one consistently hitting $10,000 or more? According to Ashley Diana, founder of Rich Stylist Academy and Destination Hair Extensions, it comes down to six daily and weekly habits that top earners never skip. In this episode, Ashley breaks down the exact routine framework she has coached hundreds of hair extension professionals to follow, helping them break through income plateaus and build sustainable six-figure businesses in 2026 and beyond. Inside this episode, Ashley covers: How to structure your week so revenue-generating activities always come first. The tracking habit that stylists inside Rich Stylist Academy credit with accelerating their income growth, with some reporting 30% faster results after implementing weekly revenue tracking. Why most hair extension stylists plateau at $5K to $7K months and the specific behavioral shifts that push past that ceiling. The difference between "busy" habits and "profitable" habits, and how to audit your own schedule in under 15 minutes. What daily habits do six-figure hair extension stylists have? The highest-earning stylists in the hair extension industry share a common set of non-negotiable habits: tracking revenue weekly, batching content creation, following up with every consultation within 24 hours, blocking time for education, and reviewing their pricing quarterly. Ashley walks through each of these in detail and explains why consistency in these areas matters more than talent or years of experience. How do hair extension stylists break income plateaus? Most stylists hit a ceiling not because they lack skill but because their business habits were built for a lower income level. Ashley explains how to identify which habits are holding you back and replace them with the systems that Rich Stylist Academy members use to scale past $10K months. Is it possible to grow a hair extension business without burnout? Yes. Ashley explains why the "hustle harder" approach backfires for most beauty professionals and how building repeatable weekly systems creates growth that does not require working more hours. Ashley Diana has coached hundreds of hair extension professionals through Rich Stylist Academy, helping stylists across the US, Canada, and internationally build businesses that support the lifestyle they want. Her approach combines real-world salon experience with proven business strategy tailored specifically for the hair extension industry. DM @missashleyhair on Instagram or visit richstylist.com.

Mark Levin. 91% of MAGA Approves Iran Action, 50% of Right Wing Podcasters Disapprove. Who are they Really! America's Role in Reshaping Iran's Future For this entire Mark Levin Show visit - https://youtu.be/vgoaq-e4RDI?si=0jCO9FLpYhWxwmgY The Mark Levin Show 91.7K subscribers 4,380 views Premiered Mar 10, 2026 Mark Levin Audio Rewind On Tuesday's Mark Levin Show, for the media, and now for most politicians, what's most important is not winning this war against Iran AND ensuring it's not replaced by another monstrous regime, but the price of gasoline on a daily basis. If this military campaign is ended prematurely, and the second phase of ensuring the institution of a civil government is not accomplished, chances are this entire effort will be for naught.  The economic, geo-political, and national security gains, which have been immense, and the stated goal of liberating the Iranian people, which initiated this process, could become a disaster in every respect -- including political. After we destroyed the Japanese regime in WWII, the U.S. wrote their constitution and installed a government that would be aligned with us.  We must give very focused thought to what comes after the Iranian regime's navy, air force, missiles, and top leadership are destroyed.  It still has a standing army, secret police, and an entire Islamist-supporting infrastructure.  There are many approaches to dealing with this short of a democracy project or sending hundreds of thousands of soldiers.  But to be clear, if a void is created and left there, and we do not fill it (perhaps with our allies) or significantly influence how it is tilled, it most definitely will be filled by the forces in Iran that remain from the old regime with the support of their allies, including China and Russia. Also, polls show that 91% approve of President Trump's handling of the Iran situation among MAGA supporters and 83% among Republicans. Since Tucker Carlson, Megyn Kelly, Steve Bannon, and Candace Owens opposed this military campaign, their audience must largely consist of leftists, anti-Semites, foreigners, Islamists, Marxists, and Democrats. Later, Democrats fiercely oppose voter ID requirements, particularly photo IDs, despite broad public support across all races.  Photo IDs are routinely required for everyday activities, yet Democrats claim they are too difficult to obtain, especially for Black people and married women, which is inherently racist and condescending. Without photo ID verification, there is no reliable way to confirm a voter's identity, prevent double voting, or stop impersonation, particularly in the 11 states (mostly Democratic) that do not require any ID.  Finally, Dr James Lindsay calls in and argues that efforts to drive a wedge between Jews and Christians, and to redefine Americanism, stem from multiple interconnected motives. Primarily, opponents of President Trump are now attempting to weaken him and his agenda from within by fracturing his coalition. This includes pushing the Republican Party toward a more radical, identity-based politics inspired by failed European conservatism, moving away from the traditional American ideal of equal citizenship regardless of background. Influencers driving these narratives are motivated by a mix of genuine ideological commitment to paleoconservative or Buchanan-style views, financial incentives like chasing clicks, payments, bot amplification, and foreign boosting, all converging to reorganize the Republican Party and sever U.S.-Israel ties to diminish America's global defensive posture.

Favour Obasi-ike, MBA, MS redefines profitable SEO as more than just rankings — it is profit multiplied by time. He introduces the concept of a foundational evergreen operating system: being where people are, staying ever-ready, and building connections that compound. The episode covers the SEO quadrant and its four pillars, why your contact database is your most valuable SEO asset, and how first-party data from email lists outperforms second-party data from platforms like LinkedIn, Spotify, and Apple Podcasts. Jonathan shares how NewsBreak and Medium drive backlinks and high domain authority, while Dr. Martin highlights the BlackNews.com story — a site built in 1999 on pure HTML that became the top black news site in the world because Google could easily crawl it. Favour performs a live Semrush audit, explains authority scores, and breaks down how commercial-intent articles like "top 10" lists build domain dominance the way Yelp does. The conversation also covers the new FTC rule on fake reviews, why your website must be the cornerstone of all marketing, and how SEO is ultimately about being the person of remembrance.Book SEO Services?

In this episode of the Real Estate Investing School Podcast, Joe Jensen sits down with Melissa Nash—a real estate investor, educator, mother of four, and wealth strategist who built a $5M+ rental portfolio using what she calls The Lazy Investor Method. After losing her business in the 2008 crash, Melissa went searching for a safer, more predictable path to financial freedom. She found it in buy-and-hold real estate—modeling the quiet generational wealth her husband's grandmother built by steadily acquiring rentals over decades. In this conversation, Melissa breaks down the early failures that taught her what not to do, the power of out-of-state investing, and the systems that allowed her to scale past 50+ deals without ever swinging a hammer, managing contractors, or even visiting most properties in person. Melissa also shares how she leverages turnkey teams, vetted property managers, creative lenders, new builds, cash-out refi strategies, and a network she carefully built over ten years to acquire properties with minimal friction—sometimes with as little as $6–7K all-in. From avoiding bad contractors to choosing landlord-friendly markets, from building tax-saving structures to combining appreciation and cash flow strategically, Melissa reveals how everyday people can create freedom through simple, repeatable systems. If you've ever felt overwhelmed by real estate, this episode is a masterclass in how to start small, stay consistent, and build a portfolio that truly supports your life—not the other way around.

What if every step you took felt like a small miracle you could share? That's the energy running through this episode as we move from Princess Weekend prep into one of the most inspiring stories we've ever hosted. We kick things off with training touchpoints, expo strategy, and course notes for the Run Disney Princess 5K, 10K, and Half Marathon—plus our meetup details, virtual queue tips, and the can't-miss Main Street moment for first-timers. If you're mapping out corrals, merch runs, or yoga logistics, we've got your plan.Then we sit down with Amanda Ferrin—The Walking Miracle—whose life with a rare autoimmune disease didn't end her story; it sharpened it. Amanda shares how a spontaneous 7K in Denver led to a last-minute Disneyland 10K, a Dopey bib through charity, and a season of marathons from London to New York. She explains scleroderma's impact with honesty and warmth, talks about living with constant pain, and how moving—often dancing—through miles brings relief, dopamine, and community. Her signature sequin jacket isn't a costume; it's a choice to celebrate every day she gets.This conversation holds more than race talk. When Amanda needed specialized surgery and IV antibiotic therapy, the runDisney community rallied overnight to fund it—turning hope into action and a bill into a lifeline. We hear what recovery looks like now, the races she's eyeing next (Rome, Paris, London, and the New York City Half), and why joy, presence, and kindness matter more than pace. Along the way, we share a polished Princess Weekend guide—expo hours, Brooks drops, transport windows, photo tips—and a lively Race Report packed with PRs, scenic routes, runway 5Ks, and hot chocolate finishes.Subscribe for weekly stories, race guides, and real talk from a community that runs on heart.

Looking for a little lavish getaway? Today Patty interviews Brent and Daniela Phillips about Milk and Honey Ranch, a luxury farm resort between Houston and Austin near Brenham, Round Top, and Blue Bell Ice Cream. Brent left a tech career after COVID, selling his company, and a Texas freeze exposed how unprepared he felt without power. He bought the land unexpectedly, first for family life and learning practical skills. After a financial hit, they listed their garage on Airbnb and it grew fast. Daniela survived a severe hydroplaning crash; while she was hospitalized, bookings surged 1300% as millions followed and prayed online. Guests come for animal experiences, especially mini Highland “cuddle cows,” plus alpacas, kangaroos, pigs, and goats. Next: a pond water park, golf simulator, and Promised Land Village for up to 40.Find out more and connect with Brent, Daniela, and Milk and Honey:Website: https://milkandhoneyranch.comFacebook: https://www.facebook.com/milkandhoneyranchtxIG: https://www.instagram.com/MilkandHoneyRanch/YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCx3IjbNw1kMIYHYl81hJxNQLinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/company/milk-honey-ranch/TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@milkandhoneyranchEpisode Highlights:00:00 Meet Brent & Daniela + the viral rooster sculpture story01:15 What is Milk & Honey Ranch?

You've been making cold calls every day. You've memorized scripts. You've tested new openers. You've practiced objection handlers.And sellers still hang up on you. Or worse—they stay on the phone and still say no.The problem isn't your script. It never was.Most wholesalers are grinding for $5K and $7K checks competing with 50 other investors on the same list because they're focused on what to say instead of how to say it—and they're rushing to make offers before the seller even trusts them.In this video I'm breaking down the full PRYME Seller Conversion Framework—the exact 4-part system I use to close $30K, $50k and $100k wholesale deals without a script.What you'll learn:✔️ The 93% Rule and why it matters more than anything you say on a cold call✔️ The only line in the entire framework that should be scripted word for word✔️ How to build enough trust that sellers open up and tell you everything✔️ The 3 mental shifts that take a seller from “I'll think about it” to “let's do this”✔️ How to present your offer as relief instead of a number—and why that's the difference between getting a signed contract and getting ghostedThis is for you if: You're a real estate wholesaler who is tired of grinding for small deals, getting hung up on constantly, and watching other investors close while you're stuck trying to figure out why your calls aren't converting.___________________________________________________________Resources:FIND OUT WHAT'S BLOCKING YOU:Take the free Wholesaler Quiz and discover what type of wholesaler you are + what's keeping you from closing $30k+ deals:

Our guest this week, Alvin Wang Graylin spent 35 years in senior leadership roles across HTC, IBM, and other major tech companies. He ran HTC's VR division, came out of the famous HIT Lab, now teaches at MIT, holds a fellowship at Stanford, and just published a paper called "Beyond Rivalry" proposing a seven-point plan for deescalating US-China AI tensions and building a global safety net before the economy breaks. His thesis: America is the fastest in the AI race and the least prepared for what it's creating—a cliff where human labor theory of value collapses, capital concentration accelerates, and 40% of the population living month to month faces chaos.The conversation becomes a wide-ranging debate between Alvin, Charlie, and Rony about whether AGI will be benevolent by default (Alvin's position: research shows smarter AI seeks global coherence and becomes less controllable by individual humans, which may actually make it safer) or whether benevolence must be designed in from scratchAI XR News You Should Know: Elon Musk merges SpaceX, xAI, and X into a single entity—Alvin dismantles the space data center concept with physics (vacuum cooling is a myth, micro-meteorite collisions would destroy hardware daily, and energy is only 10% of data center costs). Amazon invests $50 billion in OpenAI that round-trips back to AWS. Alphabet breaks revenue records at $400 billion but spooks investors by disclosing $90 billion in AI spending. ElevenLabs raises $500 million at $11 billion valuation. Rony's SynthBee hits unicorn status with $100 million raised at a multi-billion dollar valuation. Alvin warns the AI bubble dwarfs the dot-com era (298 companies raised $24 billion total during dot-com; OpenAI alone is raising that in a single private round) and predicts OpenAI may implode before going public.Key Moments Timestamps:[00:04:47] SpaceX/xAI/X merger: Rony calls it Elon's "return to Tony Stark form"[00:06:41] Alvin dismantles space data centers with physics: vacuum cooling myth, micro-meteorites, $7K/kg launch costs[00:10:04] Amazon's $50B investment in OpenAI as a round-trip to AWS; the scam economy[00:11:26] Alvin predicts OpenAI may implode before going public[00:14:23] Alvin on 35 years in AI: the technology is transformational but everyone's making a commodity product[00:17:04] The AI bubble dwarfs dot-com: $24B total vs. single private rounds today[00:19:04] Rony's contrarian: the $110 trillion global economy is what's being bet against[00:21:06] Labor theory of value collapses: what happens when humans exit the production cycle[00:23:00] America is fastest in the AI race and least prepared; 40% live month to month[00:24:00] Alvin's Stanford paper "Beyond Rivalry": a CERN for AI and global data pool[00:28:00] Davos reflections: the rest of the world is more rational than America[00:34:00] Chinese vs. American culture: reverence for teachers, respect for elders[00:42:00] Alvin's "Abundant" framework: valuing human dignity over production after AGI[00:44:22] The great debate: will AGI find benevolence naturally (Alvin) or must it be designed in (Rony)?[00:47:00] Rony on risk: AGI systems are unverifiable, untestable, and we cannot take the chanceListen to the full episode and subscribe to the AI XR Podcast for weekly conversations at the intersection of AI, XR, and the future of humanity.This episode is brought to you by Zappar, creators of Mattercraft—the leading visual development environment for building immersive 3D web experiences for mobile headsets and desktop.

This episode is a reality check for anyone who thinks construction is just catching up to tech. It's not. Construction is now leading it.In this episode of KP Unpacked, KP Reddy and Nick make the case that design and construction have become the single most important constraint on technological progress. Data centers can't get built fast enough. Housing can't scale. Power generation is racing to keep pace. And for the first time in history, construction is facing technology-driven upgrade cycles, not aesthetic ones.But this isn't just macro. KP walks through live experiments with Claude Cowork and Claude Code: automating LinkedIn grooming, generating $7K in Substack revenue, replacing million-dollar consulting contracts, and sending 1,000 personalized emails in under an hour. The breakthrough? AI agents don't need APIs anymore. They're reading screens and controlling desktop applications, which means on-screen takeoff, Revit, and legacy construction software are suddenly vulnerable.Key topics covered:Why on-screen automation could kill 50+ construction tech startups in the next yearHow AI agents control your desktop by watching and clicking, not integrating via APIReal experiments: LinkedIn automation, competitive analysis, email campaigns, vibe modeling in ExcelWhy construction is the bottleneck for AI infrastructure, housing supply, and energy distributionThe shift from trickle-funding to big bets: why seed rounds should be $15–25M for real problemsHow to get surgical about ICP definition using AI-powered researchThe 48-hour email delay hack: protecting your time when automation makes you too efficientWhy sales-oriented, variable-comp businesses are ideal for AI leverage right nowIf you're a founder building in AEC, an investor trying to understand where capital should flow, or an operator wondering whether your software strategy is already obsolete, this episode will reframe how you think about the next five years.Listen now.BuildingWorks & Brookwood Sponsors

Your income cycles between the same numbers every month. £3K, £7K, £2K, £8K, repeat. You get momentum for two weeks, then something drops on day 15. Every single time. You can post three times a week comfortably, but four posts triggers "this is too much."You think these patterns are random, they're not.Your subconscious has an identity ceiling and that ceiling has specific numbers, trigger points and thresholds where your brain reads "threat" and creates the drop to bring you back.In today's episode I'm breaking down the exact mechanism behind your identity ceiling, why your subconscious keeps snapping you back to almost there, and how to find your specific numbers so you can finally see what's been running the show. I'm showing you how studies prove that 70% of lottery winners lose their windfall within a few years because their identity didn't catch up to the money, and why the same mechanism is cycling your income, consistency, and visibility.This episode is about awareness. We're making the invisible visible. So grab something to write with, because you're finding your numbers today.Because you can't reprogram your identity ceiling until you can see where it's sitting.Let's break the pattern.Topics covered on Your Identity Ceiling Has a Number:Why your income cycling, consistency drops, and visibility pull backs aren't random (and what's actually creating them)How your subconscious operates like an elastic band, constantly snapping you back to your identity anchor pointThe real reason 70% of lottery winners lose their money within a few years (and why the same mechanism is running your business)Why your capability has nothing to do with your ceiling (and what actually determines where you stay stuck)How to find your three numbers: income anchor, consistency anchor, and visibility anchorWhat happens in your brain when you exceed your identity ceiling (and why it reads as threat)Why awareness of your ceiling changes everything before you even reprogram itConnect with Rebecca Haydon:Apply to work with meThe Subconscious MembershipCome say hi on Instagram | Facebook | YouTubeFind the full show notes & more resources at www.rebeccahaydon.com/podcast/

The Civil War Timeline Nobody Sees Coming You are likely imagining it wrong. When you picture a Second American Civil War, you probably see armies on a battlefield. But a modern conflict in a surveillance state doesn't look like 1861-it looks like a breakdown of services, digital tracking, and hyper-local violence.

Join Here: ⁠https://ow.ly/msoH50WCu0K⁠ In this segment of Notorious Mass Effect, Analytic Dreamz offers a focused, data-driven breakdown of Zach Bryan's introspective album track “Plastic Cigarette” from his new project With Heaven On Top, released January 9–10, 2026, via Warner Records / Belting Bronco Records.Born 1996 in Oologah, Oklahoma, Zach Bryan rose from raw, self-uploaded songs during his 7–8 years in the U.S. Navy (honorable discharge 2021) to major-label success with American Heartbreak (2022, No. 1 Top Country Albums), the self-titled Zach Bryan (2023), and a Grammy win for “I Remember Everything” (with Kacey Musgraves). His signature style—introspective, emotionally raw Americana, folk, outlaw country—prioritizes authenticity over polish.“Plastic Cigarette” (track 15) debuted live in Dublin, Ireland (summer 2025) and quickly became a fan favorite. The understated, reflective song explores emotional longing, regret, artificial coping mechanisms, and the metaphor of a “plastic cigarette” as a substitute for genuine connection. Critics praise its use of space, warmth, minimalism, and atmospheric restraint over hook-driven structure (noted by Pitchfork, Stereogum, Holler.country, StayFreeRadioIP).As a non-lead single, it lacks immediate chart entries (no Hot 100, Hot Country Songs, or UK Singles peaks as of January 13, 2026), but benefits from album-wide streaming surges, fan playlist placement (~1.7K saves on one reported list), strong Reddit/social engagement, and organic discovery. No significant radio push or media syncs yet.Bryan reinforces his unfiltered ethos with a full acoustic version of With Heaven On Top—recorded solo, one-take per song, no overdubs—dropping just three days post-album to preempt overproduction critiques. The project was recorded across three Oklahoma houses in winter, emphasizing live takes, minimal polish, emotional immediacy, and collaboration with close friends as a return to spiritual, less commercial roots.Analytic Dreamz examines how “Plastic Cigarette” aligns with Bryan's pattern: slow-burn traction for non-singles, growth via live teases, fan-driven long-tail streaming, and tour amplification. The upcoming With Heaven On Tour (March–October 2026) hits stadiums across the U.S. (Raymond James, Bank of America, Gillette, Empower Field, multiple nights at Tottenham Hotspur), UK (Anfield), Ireland, and Europe (Spain, Germany, Norway, Denmark, Netherlands), setting the stage for sustained catalog and album momentum.Join Analytic Dreamz for this no-fluff analysis of a deeply resonant, authenticity-first track poised for organic growth in 2026.
