Eighteen thousand tips and counting. Body language experts on every platform. Family videos analyzed frame by frame by people who've never worked a case. The Nancy Guthrie investigation has become a national obsession — and everyone thinks they're qualified to solve it.Former FBI Special Agent Robin Dreeke spent twenty-one years at the Bureau, including time as Chief of the Counterintelligence Behavioral Analysis Program. He knows how to read people. He also knows the difference between professional behavioral assessment and what happens when millions of untrained observers decide they can spot guilt from a two-minute video.In this interview, Dreeke breaks down the audience problem. The Guthrie family is performing grief under a microscope — they know every word will be analyzed, every pause interpreted, every gesture judged. That self-consciousness changes how they present themselves. And then the public reads those changes as suspicious.Investigators are drowning in tips from people who genuinely believe they've spotted something. Most are wrong. Some are based on nothing more than gut feelings after watching videos online. How do you filter signal from that kind of noise?And the perpetrator is part of the audience too. Watching the coverage. Tracking the theories. Seeing how close — or how far — the investigation appears to be.Is all this attention helping solve the case? Or is it making everything harder?#NancyGuthrie #RobinDreeke #TrueCrimeToday #FBIBehavioral #AmateurDetectives #SavannahGuthrie #BodyLanguage #TipLine #InternetSleuths #MissingPersonJoin Our SubStack For AD-FREE ADVANCE EPISODES & EXTRAS!: https://hiddenkillers.substack.com/Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

Everyone's a behavioral analyst now. Eighteen thousand tips have flooded the Nancy Guthrie investigation — most of them wrong, many based on gut feelings from people watching family videos online. Reddit threads are dissecting body language. Comment sections are full of accusations. The entire country has become an amateur investigation unit.Former FBI Special Agent Robin Dreeke ran the Bureau's Counterintelligence Behavioral Analysis Program. He spent twenty-one years learning how to actually read people. In this interview, he explains what mass observation does to a case — and everyone caught in it.The Guthrie family knows they're being watched. Every video statement gets torn apart. Every pause analyzed. Every blink interpreted by people with no training. Dreeke breaks down the feedback loop: the public watches, the family becomes self-conscious, their behavior changes, and the public reads that change as suspicious. Innocent people start looking guilty — and investigators have to cut through all that noise to find the truth.Then there's the perpetrator. They're watching too. Seeing the theories, tracking the coverage, reading what people think they know. What does sustained mass observation do to someone trying to stay hidden?This is the conversation about what we're all doing when we obsess over a case like this — and whether the attention helps or makes everything worse.#NancyGuthrie #RobinDreeke #HiddenKillers #FBIBehavioral #InternetSleuths #SavannahGuthrie #BodyLanguage #TrueCrime #MassObservation #TipLineJoin Our SubStack For AD-FREE ADVANCE EPISODES & EXTRAS!: https://hiddenkillers.substack.com/Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

Foundations of Amateur Radio The other day a fellow amateur revealed that they qualified for membership of the QWCA, the Quarter Century Wireless Association .. twice over .. there may have been some innocent whistling involved. During the ensuing discussion it emerged that it all started with a crystal radio set built together with dad, which triggered a whole lot of memories and made me consider just how you'd get into the hobby of amateur radio today. I think it's important to notice that amateur radio is a hobby. There are public service and emergency communication aspects to the experience, but it's essentially a hobby. It's supposed to be fun. I'm mentioning this because that might get obfuscated when I tell you that in order to actually be a radio amateur, you need a license. This license is required because when you transmit, radio waves don't know about international borders, don't know about interference, don't know about priorities and other aspects of our deeply interconnected world. Think of it as a way to formalise your responsibilities. Note that I said "when you transmit". You don't need an amateur radio license to listen, which you can do right now using all manner of online tools in your web browser, "WebSDR", "KiwiSDR" and "shortwave listener" are useful search terms if you're inclined. Getting an amateur license is not difficult. There are many amateurs who were licensed as a teenager, or even younger. It sets you up for life and amateur radio license in hand, you can start transmitting on dedicated amateur frequencies or so-called "bands". A license is required in every country and how that specifically happens in your country will require that you do a little research. Most countries have a so-called "peak body", an association that represents amateur radio to their government, it's a good place to start. In Australia where I live, it's called the Wireless Institute of Australia or WIA. In the United States, it's the ARRL, the UK it's called the RSGB. Searching for "amateur radio peak body" and your country should get you there. If you're stumped, your national telecommunications regulator is often another good place to find information, ultimately you'll be obtaining your amateur license from them anyway, even if they don't actually run courses and exams, though some do. Essentially what you're looking for is, where you need to go to get an amateur license and what's involved. As far as I know, most of this infrastructure is run by volunteers, fellow radio amateurs, even if there's a fee involved. You should also know that amateur licenses generally come in different flavours or levels. For example, in Australia there's currently three levels of license, Foundation, Standard and Advanced. The USA has Technician, General and Extra. The UK has Foundation, Intermediate and Full. The Netherlands has Novice and Full. In other words, what it's called and how many levels there are is country dependent, as are their requirements. I'll also mention that whatever license level you pursue, it's your hobby. You get to decide if, how and when you look for more responsibilities with a higher level of license. It might surprise you to know that I hold the basic Foundation license in Australia. I've held it since 2010. So-far I've yet to have a need to pursue anything further, despite regular "encouragement" to "upgrade" to a "real" license. You do you. It's your hobby. Some countries allow all of this to happen online, others require that you use pen and ink in person in a dedicated classroom, and everything in between. If you are hard of hearing, blind, or unable to physically attend, there are often specific tools and processes available to help you, make sure you ask. As an aside, I will mention that, as in life, there are people in this community who are less than welcoming and will go out of their way to be obnoxious, obstructionist or worse. Fortunately, while vocal and destructive, they are in the minority. Don't let their behaviour dissuade you from participating. You'll find amateurs all over the planet who will welcome you into the community with open arms. There are thousands of local amateur clubs, online resources and of course potentially a couple of million radio amateurs at the other end of your antenna. It's important to understand that the journey into amateur radio is different for everyone. For many long term amateurs the experience came from a family member or neighbour. While that route still exists, it's much less common as an introduction as it used to be. I first came across it as a teenager during a sea scouting event called JOTA or Jamboree On The Air. Whilst memorable, it wasn't until two more amateur radio interactions, decades apart, that I finally got to the point of actually discovering the hobby. For your journey, just being here, today, right now, is already a start. Welcome, it's nice to have you here. You've found the community! What are you waiting for? I'm Onno VK6FLAB

In this energetic episode of Business Coaching Secrets, Karl Bryan and Rode Dog dig deep into the mindsets, frameworks, and daily practices that separate the world's best coaches and entrepreneurs from the rest. Through rapid-fire "word association," Karl reveals actionable insights for productivity, building a powerful personal brand, becoming an ideal mentor, and thinking like legends such as Musk, Bezos, and Zuckerburg. Whether you're wondering why most coaches fail or how to stop making unforced errors, this episode is stacked with real-world advice for coaches ready to upgrade their business and impact. Key Topics Covered The To-Do List Trap and Productivity Hacks Karl explains why most people never complete their to-do list and how focusing on just three critical tasks each day—especially before 10 AM—can 10x productivity and happiness. He urges coaches to build "done lists," embrace the 80/20 rule, and set high-leverage priorities. Amateur vs. Pro: The Mindset Shift Karl breaks down how professionals obsess over what could go wrong, practice to improve (not just to practice), and invest in personal development as the ultimate asset—channeling wisdom from Warren Buffett to Tom Brady. Rules of Business and Coaching From Warren Buffett's investing rules to Karl's "two rules of business" (get clients, keep clients), the hosts link real-world examples to a simple guiding framework. Coaches are reminded that keeping clients is even more vital than getting them. The Ideal Mentor Karl introduces three coach archetypes—Hider, Winger, and Installer. The most successful mentors don't just pile on tasks but help clients cut through noise and focus on what not to do, providing systems, accountability, and transformation over mere motivation. Learning from the Great Entrepreneurs Insights from Bezos, Musk, and others show that solving bigger problems, operating as if you're always 30 days from going out of business, and having a compelling North Star all lead to outsized success. Avoiding Unforced Errors Business is a game of minimizing mistakes, from "stupid taxes" to client audits using the 80/20 rule. Whether in the Super Bowl or business, those who avoid unforced errors typically win. Why Most Coaches Fail Instead of acting with conviction and serving business owners directly, many coaches waste productivity hanging out with other coaches, lack clarity, or never truly commit. The Power of a North Star and Personal Brand From Elon Musk's Mars mission to Gary Vee's obsession with attention, a powerful vision attracts results. Karl discusses practical personal branding in the social media era and why "who knows you" outweighs "who you know." Notable Quotes "Remember, a real mentor can tell you what NOT to do." "Amateurs talk, pros listen. Amateurs want to make it, pros want to keep it." "If you really want to feel productive… create a 'done list' versus a to-do list and get your top three done by 10am." "If you can't make fast buying decisions, you won't attract people who make fast buying decisions." "You don't need more motivation. What you need is less options." Actionable Takeaways Network where your clients are: Spend 80% of your outreach time in the spaces business owners frequent, not just talking shop with other coaches. Prioritize and narrow your focus: Each day, pick your top three high-leverage actions before adding anything else. Success compounds through focus and execution. Think in mental models: Apply the 80/20 rule, "what could go wrong?", and profit-driven frameworks to decision-making and client strategy. Build your personal brand deliberately: It's not just what you know or who you know, it's who knows you. Be visible, use social media strategically, and craft a clear message. Become an Installer, not a Winger: Develop systems your clients can implement and show them where to look, not what to see. Hold yourself and others accountable for action. Imitate the greats with your North Star: State your dream and mission boldly. Big claims lead to big impact, clarity, and opportunities. Minimize unforced errors: Audit your client list for profitability, avoid busywork, and learn from athletes: controlling mistakes wins championships (and businesses).

In the world of sports, technology has increasingly played a vital role in enhancing performance and monitoring athletic activities. Soccer, the world's most popular sport, boasts an estimated 265 million players globally. However, the vast majority of these players - amateurs, children, and recreational enthusiasts - have historically been underserved by the technology available to track their performance. Enter Ginga, a groundbreaking company that has developed an innovative tracking device aimed at democratizing access to performance monitoring in soccer.Data-Driven Coaching for Athletic ImprovementAt the heart of Ginga's mission is a simple yet profound realization: while elite athletes have access to sophisticated tracking devices, the same cannot be said for the 99.95% of players who engage in the sport for fun, fitness, or personal growth. This gap in the market inspired the creation of Ginga's affordable tracking device, which is designed specifically for the everyday soccer player. The device is lightweight and unobtrusive, allowing users to focus on their game without being distracted by complex technology.The Ginga tracker is equipped with advanced sensors, including an accelerometer and gyroscope, which allow it to measure essential metrics such as distance covered, speed, and changes in direction. Unlike many existing devices that rely on GPS data, Ginga's approach utilizes an Inertial Measurement Unit (IMU) to gather data without compromising user privacy, making it suitable for children and recreational players alike. This innovative design ensures that players can monitor their performance without the need for extensive technical knowledge or complicated setups.Affordable Soccer Tracking for EveryoneAffordability is a cornerstone of Ginga's philosophy. Priced at just 89 euros, with an additional annual subscription fee of 10 euros, the device is accessible to families and individuals who might otherwise be deterred by the high costs associated with sports technology. This pricing strategy reflects Ginga's commitment to making performance tracking available to everyone, not just elite athletes. By lowering the financial barriers to entry, Ginga opens the door for a broader audience to engage with their performance data and improve their skills on the field.Moreover, Ginga's accompanying smartphone application enhances the user experience by providing real-time feedback and metrics. Users can easily connect the device to their smartphones via Bluetooth, allowing them to access a wealth of information about their performance. From average speed to work rate and metabolic power, the app empowers players to track their progress and set personal goals. Furthermore, Ginga is developing social features that will enable users to share their statistics with friends and teammates, fostering a sense of community and friendly competition among users.Users Love the TrackingThe response to Ginga's initial product launch has been overwhelmingly positive, with over 300 devices sold in the early stages and plans for a larger pre-sale of 10,000 units. This enthusiasm reflects a growing desire among soccer players to engage with technology that supports their development in the sport. As Ginga targets markets in Italy and the United States, the company is poised to make a significant impact on the soccer community, encouraging more players to track their performance and enjoy the game in new ways.ConclusionIn conclusion, Ginga's affordable soccer tracking device represents a significant step forward in making performance monitoring accessible to all players, regardless of their skill level. By focusing on the needs of the majority rather than just elite athletes, Ginga is fostering a more inclusive soccer culture. As the company continues to refine its product and expand its reach, it has the potential to inspire a new generation of soccer players to embrace technology as a tool for personal growth and enjoyment in the beautiful game.Interview by Don Baine, The Gadget Professor.Sponsored by: Get $5 to protect your credit card information online with Privacy.

After a long while of trying, it was a pleasure to finally be joined by 7x Professional title winner & 2x Belgian Olympian Manon De Roey after a solid season stateside reaching CME Tour finals on LPGA Tour. Manon'a trophy collection also includes 3x Ladies European Tour titles at 2022 Aramco Series Bangkok, 2024 Investec SA Women's Open & last year's Australian Women's Classic.  Manon is from the Schilde Muncipality just outside of Antwerp in Belgium and although she played Hockey for 13 years at a good level, she would start playing the game around about the age of 11. Manon had some success at Junior & Amateur level winning the Belgian Amateur Strokeplay twice in 2013 & 2014, winning the 2014 Belgian Matchplay Championship, receiving the 2009 Annette De Vooght Trophy given to the Best Female Belgian player, would participate in 2009 European Girls' Team Championships for Belgium as well as the European Ladies' Team Championship & Espirito Santo Trophy in Japan during her time at University of New Mexico. In 2015 Manon would turn professional and between 2018 & 2019 on LET Access Series she would pick up 3 titles winning WPGA International Challenge in back to back years as well as 2019 Santander GT LETAS Valencia. In 2020 in the midst of a weird time De Roey would pick up a mini tour title in Australia at Aoyuan International Moss Vale Pro Am.  As well as participating at both 2021 & 2024 Olympic Games in Tokyo and Paris respectively some great memories for Manon to reflect on, 2022 would see the maiden title won on Ladies European Tour at Aramco Series Individual in Bangkok by 3 shots (Manon actually brings out the trophy on camera, lovely). She would follow that up in 2024 in South Africa winning by 4 then at last year's Australian Women's Classic at Coffs Harbour playing one of the most clutch 2nd shots in a long time to win by a shot to Cara Gainer.  In 2025 alone outwith the LET victory would see a 9th placed finish at Chevron Championship major and a host of good finishes contributing to making CME Tour finals at Tiburon, a fantastic achievement. I just want to thank Manon for being such a great guest. Great player, lovely person and thanks for the privilege of seeing your trophy on the screen! All the best for 2026!

Foundations of Amateur Radio Building a shack makes a number of assumptions about your situation and to make it abundantly clear, it's not the only way to enjoy the hobby of amateur radio. Visiting clubs locally and remotely, being a member of a club, visiting other amateurs, setting up your station in a suitcase or a backpack, on a bicycle, in a car, on a bus, or in a boat are some of the many other avenues open to you. That said, there is something magical about building your own shack. It has the ability to transform your hobby and if you have the opportunity, I can highly recommend it and I'd like to encourage you to consider the notion. As I've said previously, there is plenty of exploration and learning associated with putting one together. After you've spent some time reflecting, planning, designing, sourcing, building and testing the environment where you do amateur radio, you're likely to reach a point where you'll refer to that space as "your shack". You might even come to think of it as your shack, rather than a collection of trade offs that you've constructed in the best way you know how. Inevitably, you'll wonder what to do next. Several things come to mind. Creature comforts is probably the most obvious, a push to talk foot pedal, or a desk microphone, either on a stand or hanging from a boom, an audio mixer, a couch, a soldering station, a microwave oven, a fan, or air conditioning, in other words, plenty of opportunities for improvement and enhancement. Then there's computing, something that might interest you, or not. It offers the ability to explore a whole different side of amateur radio, from logging through to digital modes, from weak signal propagation to tracking satellites, the possibilities are endless. Your shack is also potentially a communal place where you can meet with your friends to share the experience. It's a place for contemplation, for relaxation, for "being" an amateur. All of it is open to you as possibility, an excuse to improve and enhance. The thing is, that too will come to a point of, let's call it "completion", and you're left with more questions. Amateur radio is inherently experimental in nature, that's the whole point of the pursuit. Your licence gave you access to the playground, your shack is that playground. Now it's up to you to play. Of course what playing looks like is unique to you. Over the past 15 years I've been describing what playing looks like to me, and from the over 3 million downloads last year from my website alone, not to mention the newsletters, rebroadcasts, podcast inclusions, other streaming services, news reports, social media and messages I've received, they've encouraged you to explore and investigate this wondrous activity. The point is, the shack you just completed isn't finished and hopefully it never will be. Whichever one it is, the first one, the one after that or the next one, your shack is a place where you can experiment, learn, discover, test, fail, succeed, challenge and enjoy the hobby of amateur radio. It's not the only place where you'll find this hobby, but it's your place. So, have at it. I'm Onno VK6FLAB

This Week on In Stride    Sinead is joined by amateur event rider and small animal veterinarian Katie Malensek to talk about her impressive career in and out of the saddle, and how she manages to do it all.  Meet the Guest: Katie Malensek  Katie Malensek is an amateur event rider and small animal veterinarian based in Port Orange, Florida. Originally from Burlington, Ontario, she has competed at the 4* level and represented Canada on the FEI Eventing Nations Cup team in Belgium in 2023, riding Landjaeger. At the Nations Cup, she finished clear with only time faults in the CCIO4*. In addition to her Nations Cup appearance, Katie has competed in other FEI events, including CCI3-L and CCI2-L competitions in Myakka City, Florida, riding horses she has developed through the levels herself.    In This Episode, Katie and Sinead Discuss:    • Katie's perspective on the sport as an amateur and what that status means to her  • How she returned to horses after stepping away for graduate school, and what drew her back to the sport  • Her experience competing on a Nations Cup team and how she balanced work, training, and international competition  • Why it's important for riders to speak up when changes are needed to prioritize horse safety and welfare  Episode Sponsors VetCS VetCS is an equine veterinarian–founded company creating science-backed hemp products for joint support, calming, and overall wellness. -  Visit https://vetcs.com/pages/in-stride and use code InStride20 for 20% off. 

In this episode we answer emails from Gregory, Rick and Graham.  We discuss some more amateur ideas on gold and cash buffers, and modeling managed futures, and we explain why costs and liquidity often matter more than the story you're told. We share tools, back-tests, and resources that help DIY investors build smarter, calmer portfolios.Graham's  "Fall Back" instructions for inputs for Testfolio:  "For example, since you typically use DBMF but would want to back test further, one can write DBMFSIM?FB=KMLMSIM which will use DBMF as far back as it can, then fall back to using KMLM. Did you know these can be chained? One can fallback onto commodities beyond the KMLM simulation, like this: DBMFSIM?FB=KMLMSIM?FB=GSGSIM."Links:Father McKenna Center Donation Page:  Donate - Father McKenna CenterVideo on Hedge Fund Market Wizards:  Jack Schwager presents: 15 Hedge Fund Market Wizards trading secrets & insights in their own wordsInfinite Loops Podcast with Cliff Asness:  Surviving the Meme Stock Bubble | Cliff AsnessExcess Returns with Aswath Damodaran:  The Bubble Most Will Get Wrong | Aswath Damodaran on How He Is Investing in a World of AIManaged Futures/Trend Following Paper for Download:  A Century of Evidence on Trend-Following InvestingGraham's Full House Portfolio:  testfol.io/?s=5cyAAHgo1OHBreathless Unedited AI-Bot Summary:What if the biggest edge in your portfolio isn't a hot strategy but the boring details—costs, liquidity, and the ability to rebalance in seconds? We dig into listener questions on gold, long-term treasuries, cash buffers, and managed futures, and we separate evidence from stories that sound good but quietly erode returns. We look at why an 80 percent stocks and 20 percent gold mix can be fine during accumulation, yet struggle in retiree withdrawals when stocks and gold sometimes fall together. Then we explain how duration from long treasuries can change the drawdown math, especially in recessions.We also push back on the temptation to chase yield on vaulted physical gold. Once you add spreads, storage, transaction fees, and redemption friction, that “yield” comes at a cost, and you sacrifice the instant liquidity your rebalancing plan needs. Gold ETFs give you precise position sizing and near-zero friction so you can trim, add, and move on. On cash, we keep it blunt: a small buffer for bills makes sense, but large multi-year cash cushions drag safe withdrawal rates over time. Replenish cash by trimming whichever asset has run hot—simple rules, fewer regrets.For listeners trying to model managed futures, we cover why commodity funds are poor proxies and how to use Testfolio's fallback feature to extend DBMF or KMLM backtests across regimes. The larger message is pragmatic: stop searching for the perfect allocation and build a naively diversified mix that can handle growth, inflation, and shocks without prediction. Want to see how this plays out? Hit play, take notes, and test a small, real-money experiment in a side account to learn your own behavior.If this conversation helped you think more clearly about diversification, costs, and withdrawals, follow the show, leave a quick review, and share it with a friend who's rethinking their portfolio right now.Support the show

To paraphrase Jay Monahan, the PGA Tour's Opening Drive is *finally* just about underway! Andy and Brendan are beyond happy to have actual golf back on the Schedule for the Week, even if this is still a Victory Wednesday episode for the Bears. It could also be a Victory Wednesday episode for the PGA Tour, as Brian Rolapp's new Returning Member Program has enabled Brooks Koepka's return at the Farmers Open in just two weeks. Andy and Brendan discuss all the details of the new pathway, open to just four LIV golfers for the next three weeks before LIV's season begins in Riyadh. The two wonder if the financial penalty of "equity coupons" and a donation to charity was enough of a punishment for Brooks, but see this move as an overwhelmingly positive for the Tour and Brian Rolapp's tenure. Things seemingly moved quickly over the weekend and Rolapp gets props from Andy and Brendan for decisively striking while the iron is hot. PJ makes a change to his major picks, awarding Brooks with a fourth PGA Championship, but Brendan is skeptical that Koepka will find himself in major shape in 2026. Brooks will not be at the Sony Open this week, but many PGA Tour stars will be to start the season. This gambling pod makes some picks for the first event of the year, riding with two big names and a podcast favorite. Elsewhere, Rory McIlroy and other European Ryder Cup heroes are in Dubai this week for a DP World Tour event as a tune-up before coming back to the states. Brendan comes in with a real winner for the Event of the Week, Tiger's 50th birthday at the Breakers in Palm Beach. Andy and Brendan toss out some musical acts that would fit the vibe before realizing that Jon Bon Jovi is already enlisted to perform. Lastly, some major LIV news came across the desk on Tuesday morning as the Ironheads and Stingers GC have re-branded! This podcast will continue using the Stingers name, but some potentially-AI press releases reveal the new country-based names of these teams. There's also some LIV hot stove news with a former U.S. Amateur winner seemingly making the jump from the PGA Tour.

Most people think an “optimized” LinkedIn profile means:• A good headline• A solid About section• A decent profile photoThose things matter.But they are not what actually moves people to trust you or take action.In this training, I break down the three most overlooked pieces of an optimized LinkedIn profile that quietly do the heavy lifting for you.1. Your background banner- This is prime real estate.- It should instantly tell someone:- Who you help, what problem you solve, and why they should keep reading.If your banner is generic, decorative, or empty, you're leaving authority on the table.2. Your featured content sectionThis is not a place for random links.- It should function like a conversion hub:- A resource, guide, newsletter, or next step that helps someone move from interest to action without a sales pitch.This section works for you 24/7 when it's intentional.3. LinkedIn recommendationsSocial proof is not optional.- Recommendations tell your story from someone else's mouth.- They remove doubt, build credibility, and validate your expertise in a way no About section ever could.When these three pieces are aligned, your profile stops being a resume and starts working like a business asset.If your profile gets views but not conversations, these are usually the missing pieces.Don't forget to register for our Amateur to Expert 5 Day Workshop here: https://www.thetimetogrow.com/AtoEonLinkedinWorkshop
