Welcome to The Chopping Block — where crypto insiders Haseeb Qureshi, Tom Schmidt, Tarun Chitra, and Robert Leshner chop it up about the latest in crypto. This episode opens with the Aave DAO civil war: a CoWSwap integration that allegedly routed swap fees to Aave Labs/Avara instead of the DAO, igniting “stealth privatization” claims, a “poison pill” push to seize Aave IP/brand, and a bigger fight over who really owns Aave.com and the protocol's front door. Next, the crew unpacks the Flow hack (a $3.9M mint exploit) and the wild rollback talk that followed — plus why forks and bridges make rollbacks dangerous, turning bridges into accidental custodians and breaking old security assumptions. Finally, they break down Coinbase's System Update and the “Everything Exchange” strategy — stocks, tokenization, perps, prediction markets, stablecoin rails — and whether this approach can win against Robinhood. DAO wars, chain chaos, and super-app ambition — let's get into it. Show highlights

RUNDOWN Mitch opens Episode 361 barely able to speak. Area code 361, is a surprisingly stacked Corpus Christi résumé — from Farrah Fawcett's iconic poster-era fame to Eva Longoria, Lou Diamond Phillips, and Lynyrd Skynyrd's longtime keyboardist Billy Powell. The college football playoff drama continues, Notre Dame spent weeks ahead of Miami in the rankings only to get leapfrogged on a Saturday when neither team played — and then "boycott" bowl season in peak Irish fashion. From there they pivot to the Seahawks' 26–6 win in Atlanta, breaking down Sam Darnold's Jekyll-and-Hyde day (ugly first half, near-perfect second), Rashid Shaheed finally becoming a real factor in the passing game, and rookie safety Nick Emmanwori looking like a heat-seeking missile on an already elite defense. Rick breaks down a wild Selection Sunday, starting with the baffling late flip that dropped Notre Dame behind Miami despite neither team playing — a move he believes was driven more by ACC politics than football. He argues Alabama should've been penalized for an awful SEC title game showing, outlines why championship games now feel meaningless, and even says this version of Alabama "has no chance." Mitch, Brady, and Jacson break down Seattle's 37–9 dismantling of the Falcons, a performance highlighted by back-to-back games without allowing a touchdown and the defense's most dominant two-week stretch since 2014. Devin Witherspoon and Nick Emmanwori delivered superstar-level days while the returns of Julian Love and Jarran Reed stabilized the unit even further. On offense, Sam Darnold shook off a miserable first half and exploded for 182 yards and three touchdowns after halftime. Mitch brings Brady and Joe back together for the first Mariners No-Table since the season ended in Toronto, diving straight into Seattle's early offseason headline: the five-year, $92M Josh Naylor deal — a rare moment where the Mariners actually did what "everyone agrees they should do." The guys break down why the front office moved so fast, whether it was an overpay, and what it signals to the clubhouse and the league. From there, they examine the next dominoes (Polanco, bullpen additions, third base uncertainty), debate Cole Young's floor vs. ceiling, unpack the Harry Ford trade, and even entertain the dream-but-unlikely scenario of trading for Tarik Skubal.

Most flour today is milled for shelf life, not flavor or nutrition. Cairnspring Mills set out to flip that script. Co-founder & CEO Kevin Morse explains how the company created a premium craft flour category by contracting regeneratively grown, higher-margin grains directly from farmers and stone-milling to retain flavor and nutrients, winning over top chefs and bakeries nationwide. We cover the growth story ($5.1M → $6.4M → pacing $7.9M), why demand is pulling them to expand capacity, and the plan to build a dramatically larger mill in Pendleton, OR (with the Umatilla Tribe) as part of a future network of regional mills. Kevin breaks down how “regional at scale” works (quality, resilience, and local grain identity), the sales playbook (foodservice-led; DTC and retail ramp), and opportunities in co-branded “Milled by Cairnspring” products. If you care about better bread—and better agricultural economics—this is a blueprint for rebuilding a staple industry.Highlights include…Why industrial roller milling strips flavor & nutrition—and how stone milling restores both Direct farmer contracts, regenerative practices, and paying for milling/baking quality (not just protein) Growth: $5.1M (2023) → $6.4M (2024) → ~$7.9M (2025E) Capacity expansion: Pendleton, OR mill (with Umatilla Tribe) targeting ~110M lbs/yr Long-term vision: distributed network of regional mills (CapEx ≈ $40M per mill + granary) Go-to-market: foodservice first (~80%), plus DTC, retail, and co-brand opportunities Influencer flywheel: chef/baker adoption (e.g., Bianco, Tartine) → organic demand

Don and Tom tackle investor “magical thinking,” especially the belief that private equity, non-traded REITs, and other illiquid “exclusive” investments offer hidden superior returns. They walk through Jason Zweig's recent reporting on a Florida pension fund that locked up money, paid higher fees, and earned under 1% a year. The conversation underscores why liquidity, transparency, and diversification matter far more than complexity or exclusivity. The episode also features listener questions on retirement withdrawal sequencing for a $9M portfolio, evaluating cash balance plans, and deciding between traditional vs. Roth 401(k) contributions.

Send us a textJoin me for ep 260 Real Housewives of Salt Lake City Season 6 Episode 8 gossip drop where I'm investigating the origins of that explosive TikTok video about Seth Marks allegedly cheating on Meredith, and wait until you hear how Bravo presented it versus what actually happened. I tracked down the influencer who made the video and discovered it was crowd gossip from a comment section, not a firsthand account like Bravo made it seem, and there's a reason why none of the best sleuths in the Bravo landscape could find this video. Then Angie Katsanevis drops a bomb about Todd Bradley allegedly making out with someone in New York who said he smelled like beans, and we discuss my deep dive into Todd's entire history including his previous marriage, his time at Hewlett-Packard, a fraud scandal, and court documents that reveal he and Bronwyn were living in separate states for years. There's a pattern emerging about Todd's behavior and whereabouts that makes this cheating allegation seem very possible. I'm also breaking down the RHOBH trailer and the new girl Amanda Frances McKinney who may have a criminal background nobody knew about, plus I found her arrest details and I'm exposing what appears to be a massive course scam similar to RHOSLC indicted Jen Shah involving high-priced life coaching classes. People are saying they spent thousands and got information available free on YouTube, and Amanda's response to being called a scammer on the show is wild. Plus Denise Richards got her restraining order against Aaron Phypers and he's facing deportation, and I'm continuing my deep dive into Virginia Giuffre's book where she reveals how Epstein and Ghislaine Maxwell tracked her down in Australia to threaten her, how her father was allegedly paid off by Epstein, and the legal strategy that finally allowed her case to move forward despite the settlement agreement.TIME CODE HIGHLIGHTS:

How does a former Westpac mortgage broker become the #1 auction agent in the Belle Property network? Norman So, Principal and Agent at Belle Property Strathfield, has recently been named Belle Property's #1 auction agent and ranks #7 among all NSW agents. His journey from bank employee to one of Belle Property's top performers — now targeting $4M+ in annual GCI — demonstrates the power of market specialisation, innovative marketing, and systematic team building. Norman didn't just change careers; he transformed real estate marketing in Sydney's competitive western corridor. Starting with apartments in Homebush and quickly dominating Strathfield, his record-breaking $16.6 million sale redefined the suburb's price ceiling. Now running over 200 auctions annually, Norman credits his success to three game-changing strategies: leveraging influencer marketing, creating collaborative team structures, and maintaining relentless client communication. Meet Your Host: Claudio Encina Stepping in as host this week on behalf of Samantha McLean, Claudio is a former seven-figure real estate agent who built a thriving team, only to realise that success without fulfilment comes at a high cost. After feeling stressed, disconnected, and overwhelmed, he transformed his approach with expert coaching to create a model that delivers freedom, scale, and financial success. Today, Claudio has helped over 1,000 agents implement this model, enabling them to dominate their markets while living a life full of meaningful experiences. He believes that if your business doesn't work for you, then it's not working.

It will also require new behaviors and sharper priorities that strengthen our retail leadership in style and design and enable faster execution so we can: Lead with merchandising authority; Elevate the guest experience with every interaction; and Accelerate technology to enable our team and delight our guests.”Does anyone know what that word salad actually means?

Chair Gary C. Bhojwani, Elsa A. Murano, Ph.D., William A. Newlands (also lead director), Debbra L. Schoneman, Steven A. WhiteThe one black guy on the board - Steve White - who works at Comcast, is somehow qualified to be on Hormel board, and is on BOTH the audit committee AND governance committeeThe conveyor belt that spit pieces of metal as large as 17mm long into “fire braised chicken” sent to hotels and restaurantsCervoMed appoints McKinsey veteran David Quigley to board of directors - WHO DO YOU BLAME? Board is 2 VCs, a longtime biotech CFO, and five MD/PhDs. And among those 8, there are just two woman - the co-founder/wife of the CEO and a VC.

So if he throws a tantrum and leaves, isn't it bro's fault? This is a binary trade - Musk gets extra pay/control, stock goes up and isn't de-meme'd. Musk doesn't, he leaves and the stock is de-meme'd and drops arguably by 66% or more to be more like a car company with some tech. So do we blame investors, no matter what they do? They meme'd the stock in the first place, he couldn't get a trillion extra dollars if they hadn't pumped up the stock - and now they could vote with humanity (no pay) or meme capitalism (pay)!Techbro middle school conservatism - is this Ben Shapiro and Joe Rogan's fault? A Yale economist paper suggests that Musk's politics cost between 1 and 1.26 million Tesla car sales… Would we even be worried if Musk stayed out of politics?

Smith's Sayings – What did Arthur Smith say to the Steelers media earlier today? Steve Palazzolo from the 33rd Team joined the show. Steve broke down the Browns' trades over the last couple of days, which included moving Joe Flacco and swapping corners with Jacksonville. What was Steve's impression of the Dillon Gabriel debut? Steve thinks spreading out the Browns defense is the best play. What are some things the Browns do well? Steve is confused as to why Pat Freiermuth has been phased out of the Steelers offense. Steve doesn't think the Bengals got that much more dangerous with the acquisition of Flacco. If the Ravens start 1-5, Steve feels like the tide will finally be turned on the Steelers being the favorite in the division. Donny Football Debrief – The Browns are currently paying 8 QBs. They still owe Deshaun Watson $35.9M.

Phoebe Gates went from failed prototypes in her Stanford dorm room to building one of the fastest growing fashion-tech startups in the world. In this interview, the co-founder of AI shopping app Phia shares how she and her co-founder Sophia Kianni scaled from 200 early users to half a million downloads, raised $9M from investors like Kleiner Perkins, Kris Jenner, and Sara Blakely, and turned their vision into a personal AI shopping assistant trusted by a new generation of consumers. From building in public and hacking growth with feedback loops to pitching high-profile investors and navigating privilege, Phoebe breaks down the exact strategies that fueled her rapid rise as a young founder. What you'll learn from this interview: • How Phoebe went from 50+ failed ideas to finding product-market fit in fashion-tech • The grassroots tactics she used to get her first 200 users • Why feedback loops and “pizza nights” became their biggest growth hack • How she pitched and secured investors like Kleiner Perkins, Kris Jenner, and Sara Blakely • The mindset shift that helped her see failure as experimentation • Why building in public became an unfair advantage for distribution and community • How to leverage AI and automation as a young founder to scale faster By the end of this interview, you'll walk away with a playbook for finding your idea, validating it with real users, and scaling it into a fast-growth business—so you can apply the same principles to your own entrepreneurial journey.

Bart sits down with CEO Jason Manwaring to break down Neighborhood Ventures' latest moves amid a frozen resale market and higher interest rates. They cover why NV launched the Arizona Multifamily Opportunistic Fund, how it scooped up Venture on Colter and Venture on 52nd Street at 30–35% discounts, and why Venture on 12th Place was added after solving a tough refinance gap—now sitting on permanent debt with recent appraisals around ~$9M. They also update the NV REIT (MBE)—currently paying a 5% monthly dividend with stabilized, cash-flowing assets in Phoenix and Flagstaff—and preview new acquisitions in the pipeline. Property spotlights include Venture on 36th Street (fully occupied; moving to permanent financing) and Venture on 17th (stabilized with rents trending up). If you're evaluating where to put capital in today's market, this episode explains NV's buy-right, operate-well, and exit-smart playbook.
Have you ever felt a quiet knowing that something in your life was off — and tried to ignore it because you feared what it might change? In this episode, we talk about what happens when that quiet knowing becomes impossible to ignore. Amber Rae shares how meeting someone unexpectedly brought a truth she had been avoiding into sharp focus—a truth that, once faced, meant her marriage and the life she'd built would have to change. She opens up about telling her then-husband, navigating the fear and guilt that followed, and the backlash that came from choosing what felt true over what felt safe. We explore how to know if it's time to stay or go, the role of self-trust in big decisions, and why liberation is always a two-way street. We also dive into breaking free from people-pleasing, setting boundaries that last, and working with emotions like guilt and anger without letting them run the show. Amber talks about reclaiming intimacy after years without it, voicing insecurities to deepen connection, and following what brings you alive in love, career, and life. If you've ever wondered what might happen if you truly listened to yourself, this conversation will give you the courage and clarity to find out. === Have you watched our previous episode with Dr. Jude Currivan?
