Every money story has a sliding door moment... the decision that could go either way. Stay safe, or risk it all. This week’s Money Diarist chose the second option: she sold her house, walked away from job security, and packed up the family for a sea change with no plan and no savings. Everyone (including her parents) thought it was risky. And honestly? At first it did look like financial chaos. But that one leap set off a chain of events she never could’ve predicted, the kind of glow up that proves the riskiest decisions sometimes deliver the sweetest rewards. You’ll hear how she navigated debt, uncertainty, and living week-to-week, the turning point that changed everything, and the money wins she still can’t quite believe are hers. If you’ve ever stared down a scary choice and wondered what might happen if you said yes… this is your sign to listen.Ready to binge more relatable, inspiring, and downright juicy money stories?

Listen to the full episode: https://mindpumppodcast.com/2575-raising-resilient-children-with-jen-cohen/  In today's Fitness Friday episode, I'm sharing an excerpt from my conversation on the Mind Pump Podcast about a crisis that most parents don't want to discuss, but absolutely must - the digital destruction of childhood. The average age a child first encounters pornography online is 10 years old. Ten. And today's kids get less sunlight than prisoners do. We also tackle the controversial but essential topic of traditional gender roles in parenting. Why do kids misbehave 900% more in front of their mothers? And how are single parents supposed to navigate providing both structure and nurturing? This isn't about being "old-fashioned" - it's about understanding that our well-intentioned move away from traditional parenting roles may be contributing to the anxiety and fragility we see in kids today. What we discuss: Why Kids Today Get Less Sunlight Than Prisoners How Pornography Creates Drug-Like Effects on Developing Brains Why Tech Creators Won't Let Their Own Kids Use Social Media The Casino Algorithm: How Apps Are Designed to Addict Children Why Kids Misbehave 900% More in Front of Their Mothers How Single Parents Can Balance Structure and Nurturing The Rise of Phone-Free Schools and Digital Detox Movements How Gen Z is Returning to Traditional Christianity for Structure Thank you to our sponsor: Momentous: Shop this link and use code Jen for 20% off Therasage: Head over to therasage.com and use code Be Bold for 15% off  TruNiagen: Head over to truniagen.com and use code HUSTLE20 to get $20 off any purchase over $100.

In this week's episode, Livi gives you a big life update—from bad dates to dating gay men. She also breaks down the Love Island reunion and pumpkin season.

Deion Sanders is shocked by the Colorado student section smoking weed during the game. Thanks to Romi Bean of CBS 4 for the audio/video. Guys - What not to do on the first date. Will our planet be invaded by ETs in October? Accidentally eating “special” brownies. Little League umpires can damage kids. AUGUST RECAP: We learned not to eat blue pork or radioactive shrimp. If you go to a WNBA game, maybe don't bring a green dildo to toss on the court. If you have a small pet, you can opt to send it to Denmark so their predators can eat it. When changing a company logo… put some effort into it. Adults shouldn't go down tube slides. Sad Trombone makes everything ok. The Cleveland Browns are a terrible franchise. If you refuse to get off a farmer's land, they might spray you with shit. A good chunk of people hope an alien probe does make it to Earth… maybe that will shake us all into pulling our heads out of our butts.

This week, Steven is joined on the show by TJ Bruce, an advisor who set out to grow his practice through acquisition and ended up preparing taxes. TJ shares his experience with buying a book of business that happened to be doing tax prep, and his journey learning how to prepare taxes himself, and the value that clients see in that service. There are always bumps to learning something new, but TJ's clients are so thrilled with having their taxes prepared in-house that he is pursuing his EA designation and is committed to tax prep being a big part of the firms future. https://zurl.co/rRRp4

Why would a kind person start micromanaging people, even when they care deeply and want to do a good job? It happens more often than you might think! And it's often by accident.Managing people is a different job than being an Individual Contributor (IC). It requires a different mindset and skills -- "what got you here won't get you there," as the saying goes. Anyone can drift towards micromanaging. In today's episode, find out why this happens, and what you can do about it.**After the Episode**Enrollment in Communication Strategies for Managers:https://maven.com/kimnicol/communication-strategiesFor private coaching focused on your personal goals and professional development:https://kimnicol.com/Connect with me on LinkedIn:https://www.linkedin.com/in/kimnicol/Become a more calm and confident leader:⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://insighttimer.com/meditation-courses/mindfulness-for-managers-at-work⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠

Turning Your TTRPG Into a Chemically Enhanced Nightmare (for the Players, Not the GM) Missed an episode? Accidentally ingested a memory-erasing toxin? No worries! Archived episodes of the RPGBOT.Podcast are now available on YouTube. Binge the banter, savor the strategy, and relive every rules argument—now with video thumbnails. Show Notes Welcome to the episode where the RPGBOT.Podcast crew rolls a Constitution save against bad design decisions and fails—deliberately. In this delightfully dangerous deep dive, Tyler Kamstra, Randall James, and Ash Ely explore one of the most tragically underused tools in the Game Master's arsenal: poison. Not the “ha ha, you take 1d4 damage and feel kind of bad” kind—no, we're talking the really nasty stuff. The stuff that makes players sweat, forget what color their dice are, and suddenly develop a deep appreciation for the paladin's aura of protection. Join the crew as they: Dissect why poison is so often mechanically boring despite being conceptually metal. Share hilarious war stories about poorly-timed venomous traps and failed fortitude saves. Explore how different TTRPG systems handle poison: from D&D's "mild inconvenience" to Pathfinder's "goodbye, pancreas." Offer deliciously evil advice for GMs looking to flavor their campaigns with a little more toxic attitude. Brainstorm better mechanics for poisons that do more than just slap a couple HP off your barbarian and call it a day. Create fictional poisons on the fly—some of which should never be spoken of again. Looking at you, Ash's Spiteful Slime Surprise. Debate whether ingesting a cursed Hot Pocket counts as a magical poison effect (spoiler: it does, and it bypasses resistance). Key Takeaways: D&D poison mechanics are weaker than a kobold's slap fight. It's time for GMs to spice things up with custom creations. Pathfinder 2e offers a better structure, but still leaves room for homebrewed horrors. Poisons should be scary, situational, and strategic. They can shape encounters, plotlines, and even the economy. "Save or suck" poison effects? Lazy. Instead, give toxins progressive effects or interactable consequences. Players love meaningful danger. If your rogue wants to coat their dagger in acid-laced possum venom, let them—then make them regret it just a little. GM tip: If the party stops eating anything in-game, congratulations. You've weaponized cuisine. Bonus insight: Nothing ruins a tavern meal like realizing the stew is a dexterity check away from cardiac arrest.

Nadiya Hussain and Kristen Kish are winners of two of the most popular cooking shows on television – and they're both out with new books about life and food. First, Hussain won The Great British Baking Show in 2015. Her latest cookbook Cook Once, Eat Twice is about simplicity, efficiency, and turning one dish into two different meals. In today's episode, she speaks with NPR's Sarah McCammon about a two-part recipe from her cookbook. Then, Kristen Kish won season 10 of Top Chef, but says she wasn't always comfortable being showcased. Her new memoir Accidentally on Purpose tells the story of that journey. In today's episode, she talks with Here & Now's Jane Clayson about growing up adopted, working at fast food restaurants, and filling in for Padma Lakshmi on Top Chef.To listen to Book of the Day sponsor-free and support NPR's book coverage, sign up for Book of the Day+ at plus.npr.org/bookofthedayLearn more about sponsor message choices: podcastchoices.com/adchoicesNPR Privacy Policy

On Monday, President Trump unleashed a tortured Truth Social rant that lied relentlessly about vote-by-mail—and announced a forthcoming executive order that would end mail voting entirely. That's not legal, of course. But nothing, no matter how absurd, can be ruled out these days. Trump's eruption also revealed a bigger set of intentions: To abuse presidential power in every conceivable way he can to swing the midterm elections against Democrats. This comes as Trump's scheme to get Texas to gerrymander five extra GOP seats is gaining steam. We talked to David Daley, the great analyst of right-wing election subversion, whose latest book is called “Antidemocratic: Inside the Far Right's 50-Year Plot to Control American Elections.” He explains how Trump will try to help the GOP cheat its way through the midterms, why it might work, and what Democrats must do in response—in this election cycle and, importantly, beyond.

"Think of yourself in a concert hall listening to the strains of the sweetest music when you suddenly remember that you forgot to lock your car. You are anxious about the car, you cannot walk out of the hall, and you cannot enjoy the music. There you have a perfect image of life as it is lived by most human beings." There, Jesuit priest Anthony de Mello reminds us to focus on the magic in front of us. What are you doing to switch off, and if you cannot do so, how can you do it? That's why we're looking at this week.  You can subscribe to this podcast on:  Podbean | Apple Podcasts | Stitcher | Spotify | TUNEIN   Links: Email Me | Twitter | Facebook | Website | Linkedin The Time-Based Productivity Course Get Your Copy Of Your Time, Your Way: Time Well Managed, Life Well Lived The Time Sector System 5th Year Anniversary The Working With… Weekly Newsletter Carl Pullein Learning Centre Carl's YouTube Channel Carl Pullein Coaching Programmes Subscribe to my Substack  The Working With… Podcast Previous episodes page   Script | 381 Hello, and welcome to episode 381 of the Your Time, Your Way Podcast. A podcast to answer all your questions about productivity, time management, self-development, and goal planning. My name is Carl Pullein, and I am your host of this show.  How often do you completely switch yourself off from tasks, projects, emails and messages?  And not just professional emails and messages and tasks, it includes all the WhatsApp messages from friends, strangers and the home projects you promised yourself that you would do this weekend, but never did?  It seems we've found ourselves caught in the to-do trap. Where the only thing on your mind is all the things you've listed somewhere that you think you must do.  It's a horrible existence. As soon as we sit down to relax, our phone reminds us there's more to do. More emails and messages come in, task manager reminders pop up on the screen with a bing telling us we're supposed to call this person or that one.  And given that we now carry our phones around with us everywhere we go, it's as if the phone no longer serves us, but we serve it: jumping to its every whim and beep.  The problem here is that it's not something you suddenly start doing. It's a gradual creep. It begins with waiting for your daughter to text you the time her train arrives at the railway station, to suddenly worrying about whether a customer or your boss sent you last minute Teams message before the end of your work day. You'e got to check right?  And before long, you feel intensely uncomfortable if your phone isn't in your hand or near you. It's then when you have gone beyond experiencing a healthy relationship with your digital devices. It's time to unravel all those now ingrained impulses.  And that's where this week's question comes in. And that means it's time for me to hand you over to the Mystery Podcast Voice for this week's question.  This week's question comes from Maggie. Maggie asks, hi Carl I see all these productivity YouTube videos, and listen to a lot of podcasts, but very few of them ever talk about how to switch off at the end of the day and relax. This is something I am really struggling at the moment with.  Hi Maggie, thank you for your question.  You're right, I rarely see videos or hear podcasts talking about switching off and relaxing. I do sometimes hear people saying to stop and relax, but not how to do it.  As I mentioned a moment a go, this is not something we just stop doing. It creeps up on you. One moment you're a child without any digital devices, being curious, running around, trying new hobbies then falling asleep to suddenly being held hostage by task lists, projects and long lists of thing you think you should do.  Not to mention the anxiety of responding quickly enough to a friend's text message or your boss's email.  If you think about it, while we seem to have adapted well to this new phenomenon, and appear to just accept this as the way of life, it's really a horrible existence.  Last week, I mentioned that I had embarked on a 13 hour autobiographical TV series on Lord Louis Mountbatten.  The series was recorded in and around 1969, so was shot before the dawn of home computers.  What I noticed was how people in those pre-home computer days relaxed. There were family board games, book reading and going out for walks and having picnics by the river.  Because the only way you could be contacted was via a letter, telegram or land line phone, once you left the house you were free. And “free” in a real sense. If you were to take a walk by the river or pond or lake, you could fully engage with your surroundings and the people you were with.  And family meals were important.  The aristocracy in the UK would dress for dinner, and even as we went into the post-war years, there would be a ritual of adults and children washing their hands before sitting down to dinner.  I rarely see that with people today. I should point out that it's still a good practice to do—you know, washing your hands before eating your meals.  Currently, I am reading the enormous series of books by historian Dominic Sandbrook, the co host of the excellent podcast The Rest is History.  Sandbrook begins this series of books in 1950s UK and I am currently up to 1970, having just finished reading his excellent book Mad As Hell: The Crisis of the 1970s and the Rise of The Populist Right, a book about how US culture changed in the 1970s.  The books have chapters on how families lived and the activities they did in their spare time and as I was reading these chapters I felt a sadness that many of these activities seem to have disappeared.  For instance, in the UK, there was in almost every town and village a working mens club. Yes, today that would be considered sexist, but when these clubs started they were established for the men who worked down the mines or in the factories.  One of the clubs I used to go to would have a guest act on every Sunday night. Sometimes the act was a musician other times it might be a comedian. These clubs would be full of husbands and wives having a drink, playing bingo between the act's sessions.  It was a wonderful evening. I remember never once worrying about work, or even talking about work. It was families talking about where they were going on holiday, playing bingo and watching the acts.  I never experienced what we called in the UK “Sunday night blues”—that depressing feeling of knowing you had to go back to work tomorrow.  I only ever experienced that when I stopped going to the club on a Sunday and instead sitting at home watching TV.  Somehow, we've sacrificed human activities—going out with friends and family three or four times a week—to sitting on sofas watching TV or scrolling through endless feeds in social media. Often feeling jealous of the fake lives people put on there.  And certainly not engaging with other human beings in the same room as you.  And the word “Hobby” seems to have become a quaint old-fashioned word. I mean, who's got time for hobbies today?  And that to me is where people need to start. Have a hobby that does not involve a digital tool.  One of my rediscovered hobbies is collecting books. Real books. I've always enjoyed reading. It's been a big part of my life.  I remember before I got an iPad in January 2011, I would spend weeks deciding which book to take with me on the plane when I travelled. It became an annual ritual. A week or two before I was due to fly I would spend a Saturday afternoon at the bookstore in the local shopping centre looking for something I could read while I was on holiday.  After January 2011, I no longer went to a bookstore. I downloaded books from Apple Books or Amazon. Accidentally, something I had found immensely pleasurable—spending an afternoon wandering around a bookstore, to simply hearing about a book, finding it on a digital bookstore and buying it.  The pleasure of aimlessly wandering around a bookstore was ripped away from me for the sake of convenience.  I can fully understand why the sales of vinyl records and record players have exploded in recent years. The lack of convenience and a limited record collection makes listening to music a genuine pleasure.  Those of a certain age may remember creating something called a “Mix tape”. This was where you recorded from a hi-fi system records to a tape cassette that you could play on a cassette walkman or in the car when going on a long journey.  There was was something deeply pleasurable in make those tapes. I used to do this when going on family holidays. It didn't require a lot of brain power. Just looking through your records (and later CDs) for songs and then recording them, in real time, to a cassette.  You had to sit and listen the whole song before pressing pause on the tape and choosing the next song. Completely inconvenient by today's standards, but that wasn't the point. It was relaxing, enjoyable and there was a sense of pride when finished of a job well done.  And that's where I think we should be looking for activities that help us to switch off at the end of the day or at weekends. Activities that take us away from the digital noise. For example, this year, I've made it a habit to spend a minimum of thirty minutes reading a real book after I finish my evening coaching calls.  I close down my office, grab the book I am currently reading, and go through to the living room, settle down on the sofa with the book and read. While I will read for at least thirty minutes, I often find myself still reading after an hour. During that time, it's just me and little Louis lying next to me.  It's quiet and incredibly relaxing.  Another “hobby” I began this spring was to have a bedding box on the terrace outside my office. In this box I've been growing flowers. It needs watering and the occasional weed needs pulling out. This had led me to want to add more flower boxes for next year.  I've been sketching out on paper ideas of where I'll put these boxes and what flowers I could grow in them. I've even considered growing my own vegetables too.  All non-tech hobbies that have brought some real enjoyment with them.  Other activities you may wish to consider are knitting and needlework. I've remember teaching myself to sow buttons onto shirts and jackets—great fun but can be equally frustrating.  Water colour painting. There's an initial cost in paints and paint books, but again great fun when you get going. This is a particularly good hobby if you like to get out into the countryside.  Winston Churchill used painting as a way to destress at weekends and on holidays.  While I'm not a big fan doing digital detoxes or restricting use of digital tools, that's just a waste of time because you end up finding excuses to check your digital devices.  What I have found, though, is if you have a hobby or activity that is non-digital, you lose the temptation to “check” for messages and notifications. You become engrossed in the activity you engaged in.  Perhaps you could have a Saturday or Sunday morning family walk. Give it some added interest by including some bird spotting or trying to find new routes around the park or woods.  When to comes to switching off, look for activities that don't involve phones or computers. Puzzles are good, learning to detail a car (my current hobby) or some gardening—which can large or small.  I hope that has helped, Maggie. Try to use things to switch off that do not involve a screen and you'll find yourself relaxing and rediscover some lost pleasures in life.  Thank you for your question and thank you to you too for listening. It just remains for me now to wish you all a very very productive week.

In this episode of Wake Up, Look Up, Pastor Zach explores whether Gen Z is “accidentally Christian,” noting their embrace of values like moderation, craftsmanship, and tradition. While these moral choices can point toward God, he warns that morality alone doesn't save—only surrendering to Jesus does.

How Do I Know If My Website Is Penalized by Google? Website Health & Technical SEO Masterclass with SEO Expert, ⁠Favour Obasi-ike, MBA, MS⁠⁠⁠ | Get exclusive SEO newsletters in your inbox.This extensive SEO audio provides an in-depth discussion on technical SEO and how businesses can identify and address Google penalties impacting their websites. Favour uses analogies like a car's engine or a leaking roof to explain complex concepts, emphasizing that a penalty often signals a need for correction and improvement, not failure. Key areas covered include website structure, content quality (thin vs. thick content), proper use of tags and categories, image optimization, video embedding, and leveraging Google Search Console for diagnostics. The conversation also touches on the distinction between manual and algorithmic penalties and offers practical advice, such as using search operators, to check website visibility and performance.Frequently Asked Questions1. How can I tell if Google has penalized my website, and what does it mean?Google penalizes websites when they violate webmaster guidelines, often due to issues with content quality, relevance, or technical structure. A penalty means your site's search ranking is negatively affected, leading to reduced visibility and traffic. While a penalty might seem negative, it's actually an opportunity for correction and improvement, indicating that your site is at least visible enough for Google to notice. You might receive email notifications from Google, or you can check your Google Search Console for specific error messages and performance insights.2. What are the two main types of Google penalties, and how do they differ?There are two primary types of Google penalties:Manual Penalty: This occurs when a human reviewer from Google's web spam team flags your website for violating guidelines, often due to manipulative practices like spammy or hidden links ("black hat SEO"). These are rare but indicate a severe violation.Algorithmic Penalty: This is far more common and happens automatically due to issues detected by Google's algorithms. Reasons can include outdated or "thin" content, low quality or irrelevant information, generic AI-generated content, unnatural links, or regurgitated content. These penalties lead to automatic demotion or removal from search results.3. How does "thin content" contribute to Google penalties, and what makes content "thick"?"Thin content" refers to web pages that lack depth, context, or comprehensive information on a given topic. It's often characterized by a low word count, insufficient detail, and a lack of supporting elements. Google measures articles by reading time, word count, and character count. If your content is significantly shorter than the industry average for a similar topic (e.g., 300 words vs. 3,000 words), it's considered thin and unlikely to outrank competitors."Thick content," conversely, is rich in information and provides a thorough exploration of a topic. To create thick content, you should:Expand on topics: Go beyond basic definitions, offering more context and depth.Include various elements: Incorporate images (optimized for size), embedded videos (not uploaded), audio clips, statistics, examples, comparison charts, quotes, listicles, proper formatting (headings, links), and frequently asked questions (FAQs).Answer user intent: Ensure your content directly addresses the questions and needs of your target audience.4. Why is connecting my website to Google Search Console crucial for identifying and resolving penalties?Google Search Console (GSC) is the primary tool Google provides for website owners to monitor their site's performance in search results and identify issues. Connecting your website to GSC is the first essential step because it allows Google to communicate error messages and indexing problems directly to you. Within GSC, you can view performance insights, check the "Pages" section under "Indexing" to see which pages are known, submitted, or unsubmitted, and understand why certain pages might not be indexed. This diagnostic information is vital for understanding the root causes of any penalties and guiding your corrective actions.5. What are common technical SEO issues that can lead to Google penalties, beyond content quality?Technical SEO issues relate to the structural and operational aspects of your website that affect how search engines crawl and index it. Common problems include:Website size and image optimization: Large file sizes, especially for images and uploaded videos, can slow down your website, leading to a poor user experience and penalties. Use compression tools (e.g., compressor.io) for images and embed videos instead of uploading them.Broken or inaccessible links: Ensure all links within your sitemap and across your site are functional and lead to valid destinations.Incorrect robots.txt or "no index" tags: The robots.txt file and "no index" meta tags tell search engine robots which pages to crawl or not to crawl. Accidentally blocking important pages (a common default issue with platforms like Wix for blog tags) can prevent Google from indexing your content.Outdated website structure: An inefficient or poorly organized website structure can hinder crawlability and overall performance.Slow loading times: Directly linked to website size and optimization, slow loading speeds can negatively impact user experience and search rankings.6. What's the recommended first step for a business owner who suspects their website is penalized by Google?The immediate first step is to connect your website to Google Search Console (GSC) if you haven't already.Go to google.com and search for "Google Search Console."Click on the official Google Search Console Tools link.Click "Start Now."If your site isn't connected, GSC will provide a unique verification code (often a TXT record).Go to your domain name server (DNS) settings within your website hosting provider's control panel.Add the provided TXT record to your DNS settings.Return to GSC and click "Verify."A green bar indicates successful connection. Once connected, GSC will begin providing insights into your site's performance, indexing status, and any specific error messages or penalty notifications, allowing you to diagnose and address issues effectively.Digital Marketing SEO Resources:>> ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Join our exclusive SEO Marketing community⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠>> ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠SEO Optimization Blogs⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠>> ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Book Complimentary SEO Discovery Call⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠>> ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Subscribe to We Don't PLAY Podcast⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Brands We Love and Support⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Loving Me Beauty | Buy Vegan-based Luxury Products⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Unlock your future in real estate—get certified in Ghana today!⁠See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

AG Pam Bondi just sawed both legs out from under Trump in a new Federal Court filing: (1) she concedes that there is a “great public interest” in the Epstein Files caused in part by her office's own 2 page “close out” memo from early July; and (2) that there is nothing in the Grand Jury materials that consist of only 2 TOTAL witnesses (both law enforcement not conspirators or victims) that the public hasn't already seen. Michael Popok of Legal AF takes a hard look at the new filing and the judge's order and why this blows up Trump's whole series of ‘denials and attempts to make the Epstein Scandal and his role in it go away.

But it was only days later that police found her remains in the camper van, 4 days after the murder. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

President Trump just offered some bizarre new ramblings about the Jeffrey Epstein scandal. But he undermined himself: He claimed to know about elite Democrats and liberals who had visited Epstein. But that just raises the question that won't go away: If this is what the Epstein files would reveal, then why isn't Trump ordering their release? Every time Trump says such things, he wrecks his own Big Lie: That the Epstein scandal is a Democratic hoax that actually implicates Democrats even as he won't release the files. Meanwhile, Elon Musk just endorsed the idea that Trump might try to pardon Epstein accomplice Ghislaine Maxwell in exchange for exoneration. Musk knows Trump's machinations here are a major point of weakness. We talked to Jennifer Rubin, editor-in-chief of The Contrarian, who has a good new piece laying out why Trump should be panicking over this scandal. We discuss the absurdity of Trump's biggest Epstein deceptions, why they're unsustainable for Trump, and why it all underscores the urgency of a Democratic victory in 2026.

Sony-owned Santa Monica Studio is one of PlayStation's first party powerhouses. Responsible for the God of War franchise -- and, other than Kinetica early in the PS2 era, only the God of War franchise -- there was some excitement building about what was next. But what if it's just more God of War... at least kinda? New rumors indicate that Santa Monica is working on something more familiar than we might have hoped, and from our perspective, that can only mean one thing. We discuss. Plus: Sucker Punch expresses interest in returning to Infamous, Ghost of Yotei gets special edition PS5 hardware and a DualSense, HBO's second season of The Last of Us earns a ton of Emmy nominations, concept art for Deviation's cancelled PlayStation exclusive emerges, Dragon Quest VII is apparently being remade at Square Enix, and more. Then: Listener inquiries! With the demise of Xbox's Turn 10 Studio, is it time for PlayStation to port Gran Turismo to its rival's machine?
