On Clash of the Correspondents, James is joined by Brighton fan Sam Murray and Newcastle fan Simon Bibby to discuss the latest at their clubs and all the FPL assets from both ahead of their GW8 meeting at The Amex. Brighton remain very Jekyll and Hyde, two wins from seven, and WITH those victories coming against Chelsea and Manchester City seems to sum up where The Seagulls are at. Can they find consistency ahead of a fixture turn that may appeal to Fantasy managers? But can anything be sought bar Yankuba Minteh? Newcastle will also appeal to Fantasy managers, a good long-term run of fixtures has begun for them, the defensive numbers are good and some tough games are out of the way. Dan Burn, Anthony Gordon and Nick Woltemade all feature prominently in the discussion. And so too does the already seismic differences in terms of Fantasy returns for the two goalkeepers.

I want to start today by explaining why my audio sounds like garbage. I don't have my usual mic — or my webcam, or laptop, or clothes — because everything was stolen out of our rental car while we were eating at Burma Superstar in Oakland. I lived in this city for nearly a decade and never once got ‘bipped.' This time, someone smashed the window, glass flying right over the car seat where my baby had just been sitting, and took every bag they could find. My wife's stuff, my stuff — all gone. They even took the bag of stuffed animals. Apparently, those don't fence for much.Now, I don't bring this up for pity. I know full well that parking a rental car in Oakland is like drawing a target on your back. But that's exactly what bothers me — this idea that we deserve it. That the cost of living in a beautiful, culturally rich city like Oakland is rampant, normalized crime. And it's not just Oakland. I don't buy that this is the price of admission for living in cities like Chicago or New York either. These are cities with strong tax bases, vibrant economies, and in some cases — like here in San Francisco — literal gold rushes. I'm speaking to you now from the Bay Park, right next to the Chase Center, where the Warriors play. OpenAI's offices are here. And yet one garage over, you're stepping through fentanyl, addicts, and filth.Politics Politics Politics is a reader-supported publication. To receive new posts and support my work, consider becoming a free or paid subscriber.What really got me was the reaction. When I told friends what happened, no one was surprised — just a shrug and “yeah, rental car.” No outrage. No concern. This isn't just about me getting my stuff stolen. It's about the fact that this kind of thing is treated as an unavoidable fact of life. And I get it — people here have empathy. But that empathy's being weaponized. Because this isn't just random desperation. If it were, they'd have taken the diaper bag. No, I think what we're dealing with is organized crime. And no one seems interested in doing anything about it.There's no political will. I'm not calling for a police state, but I am saying that the city should want to stop this. It's not just bad for tourists — it's not good for the locals either. The criminals aren't the ones getting rich. The neighborhoods that need better-paying jobs aren't helped by a tourism industry that doesn't exist because no one wants to visit a city where this is just what happens. I don't think it's generous to ignore that — to write this all off as unavoidable.The kicker? When I called 911, they told me to go to a website. That was it. And look, I'll be fine. My car rental's covered by Amex we're going to get home okay. But what does that say about the city — when a middle-class family gets robbed, and no one even pretends to care? There's something broken here, and it's not just the window.Chapters00:00 - Intro and Crime Thoughts08:12 - Interview with Bill Scher45:42 - Wrap-up This is a public episode.

In Episode 140 of the Award Travel 101 podcast, hosts Mike Zaccheo and Cameron Laufer cover a range of topics from heartwarming uses of points to travel industry updates and destination planning. They open with a moving story from a community member who used 18,000 AA miles to fly an old friend across the country for emotional support—highlighting how miles can offer more than just luxury travel. Mike and Cameron then discuss notable credit card updates, including new Capital One transfer partners like Qatar Airways and Japan Airlines (with a 30% bonus), and question whether the $895 Amex Platinum fee is worth it given the long list of credits offered. Transfer bonuses from Citi and Amex are also covered, and they touch on current promotions like Chase Freedom's Q4 5x categories.The main segment dives into Cameron's recent trip to the Dolomites in Italy. He provides a detailed rundown on how to get there using points and miles from various programs—highlighting Emirates' fifth-freedom JFK–Milan route, and Star Alliance partners like United and Lufthansa. For accommodations, they explore luxury hotel options using programs like I Prefer, Marriott, and portals from Amex, Chase, Citi, and Capital One. Ground transportation tips emphasize renting a car over relying on trains and buses. Cameron wraps up with Dolomites-specific advice like reserving parking at Tre Cime, getting to Seceda early, and hiking resources, making this episode both informative and personal.Episode Links:Capital One new Transfer PartnersCapital One To JAL Transfer BonusOther Transfer BonusesAmex Platinum DetailsChase Freedom Q4 5x CategoriesDolomites Points & Miles PostWhere to Find Us The Free Award Travel 101 Community.

Ready for an unfiltered look at family travel? Join Raya and Duane as they pull back the curtain on their travel strategies, answering your burning questions about navigating the world with three kids in tow.Ever wondered how to prepare toddlers for their first flight? Our hosts share their trial-by-fire experiences, from eight-month-old lap infants to red-eye flights with layovers. Their practical advice on entertainment, snacks, and managing expectations comes from years of real-world testing with their own children. The unanimous verdict? Pack more snacks than you think you'll need and don't be afraid to bend your screen time rules when 30,000 feet in the air.Accommodating a family of five presents unique challenges in a hotel industry designed for parties of four. Raya explains how their pursuit of Hyatt Globalist status was driven by the need for space through suite upgrades, while also exploring alternatives like family plan rates and home exchanges.

Their candid admission that they "never feel like they have enough points" will resonate with anyone who's caught the travel hacking bug.Whether you're planning your first family trip or looking to optimize your travel strategy, this ask-me-anything episode delivers practical insights from parents who've learned to navigate the complexities of family travel without sacrificing adventure.

Sick of paying full price for travel? We recently sat down with travel expert Julia Menez to learn how to fly in business class and stay in luxury hotels for a fraction of the cost. Julia shared her top strategy: focus on flexible points programs like Chase and Amex. These points can be transferred to a variety of airline and hotel partners, giving you far more value than a single-brand credit card.

On the GW5 Review with Suj and James, Erling Haaland scores again and now for those not on the Manchester City forward the wave of transfers to buy him in has begun... Suj was already there, but will James continue to go against!? All the games reviewed, including Pep's City going low block as they tried to hold on at Arsenal, Liverpool won the Merseyside Derby, West Ham and Wolves were beaten again and though they didn't win James was far happier with what he saw from Tottenham at The Amex. There's a theme of enablers as those looking to get Haaland in may also need to find money, Cole Palmer's latest setback in a wild defeat for Chelsea at Old Trafford puts him in a 'no buy' territory, whilst the frustrations with Villa assets continues and there's repeated warnings about upcoming rotation.

A light week of golf leads us to this wide-ranging Friday episode, covering a potential new housecat, the return of a broadcast legend, and a legendary Ryder Cup Flashback. Andy and Brendan first discuss the U.S. Mid-Am and the fiery online debate about former pros getting their amateur status reinstated. Andy is adamant that these players should not be able to waltz back into amateur golf and outlines his ideal rules for the situation. Brendan and KVV react to Andy's rulings and wonder if some are too harsh for those looking to continue playing competitive golf after their pro careers end. There's a bit of golf news to cover with LPGA legend Stacy Lewis retiring and the PGA of America bringing the KPMG Women's PGA and the PGA Championship back to Bethpage in the coming years. In much-needed Ryder Cup broadcast news, Sir Nick Faldo will be on the call for NBC next week, teaming with Terry Gannon and Notah Begay for morning sessions. Blockie is also back in the fold for 2026, because of course he is! We'll see him at the AmEx next year. In the spirit of Bob Uecker, a Golf Advice emailer sent along a letter from a ghost of Ryder Cup past to be read before we help one of our favorite football podcasters out with a fantasy football punishment. KVV then unpacks a Flashback Friday segment on the 2004 Ryder Cup war between Phil Mickelson and American captain Hal Sutton, complete with a Texas accent you won't want to miss. Lastly, some Don Rea soundbites send us into the weekend, as only he can.

Episode 138 of the Award Travel 101 podcast opens with Angie Sparks and Mike Zaccheo discussing a highlight post from member Luis, who was abruptly shut down by Amex with over two million points at stake. The community debated the best redemption strategy—ranging from Delta (discouraged) to BA, Aeroplan, or spreading across multiple programs including Hilton. News updates included Capital One removing Priority Pass restaurant benefits from Venture X Biz cards, a Chase 20% Flying Blue transfer bonus, and Southwest rolling out free Wi-Fi for Rapid Rewards members. They also highlighted multiple transfer bonuses across Hilton, Marriott, and Virgin and reminded listeners of tools like the Transfer Bonus Calculator.The main topic centered on Hilton Honors, with Angie pointing out positives like Hilton's large global footprint, easy paths to status via co-branded Amex cards, and its uncapped free night certificates (FNCs)—which remain among the most flexible in the industry. Mike countered with drawbacks, noting significant devaluations in 2025, with standard awards now topping 250,000 points per night at premium properties. Benefits can feel weaker than other chains, particularly in the U.S. where breakfast is replaced by limited food and beverage credits and parking fees still apply on award stays. They reviewed Hilton's four credit card options, their earning rates, elite benefits, and statement credits, as well as the frequent buy-points promos and Amex transfer bonuses.The tip of the week covered how to generate and add an Atmos virtual card to Apple Pay using the BOA app, offering a workaround for those still waiting on their physical cards. Overall, the episode balanced community highlights, industry news, and a deep dive into Hilton's strengths and weaknesses for travelers navigating the ongoing devaluation landscape.Links to Topics DiscussedCapital One Venture X Business Eliminates Priority Pass Restaurant BenefitChase to Flying Blue Transfer BonusSouthwest Free WiFiHilton Honors DevaluationWhere to Find Us The Free Award Travel 101 Community.

Great marketing isn't just strategy, it's intuition, timing, and a deep understanding of human behavior. That's the beauty of Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind, a movie about erasing your memories. In this episode, we're breaking down its lessons with the help of special guest Noha Rizk, Chief Marketing Officer at Incorta. Together, we explore what B2B marketers can learn from putting human emotion at the center of their work, trusting intuition alongside data, and embracing mistakes as the path to growth.About our guest, Noha RizkNoha Rizk is the Chief Marketing Officer at Incorta.

She especially enjoys building and developing strong, resilient, and nimble teams that can adapt to changing market needs and customer expectations.Noha is an avid reader, developing painter and pianist, proud mother and animal lover with a passion for helping the private sector thrive in emerging markets.What B2B Companies Can Learn From Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind:Lead with human emotion. Great marketing isn't about features, it's about people. Even in B2B, you're dealing with human psyches, behaviors, and emotions—not faceless corporations. Noha explains, “Even as B2B marketers… you're dealing with individuals. You're dealing with the human psyche, you're dealing with the buying behavior… ultimately that is the objective. The objective is to maintain a relationship with your customers.” The lesson? Build messaging that connects on a human level first, because behind every buying decision is a person making sense of their own emotions.Balance data with intuition. Metrics matter, but numbers can't capture everything. Noha argues that some of the best insights come from being present, listening, and noticing what the data can't show. “Some things can't be measured…A big chunk of marketing has to be intuitive. It's not always purely scientific.” Just as the film's dreamlike narrative reminds us memory isn't linear or logical, B2B marketers need to leave room for creativity, serendipity, and gut instinct, because not everything that counts can be counted.Embrace mistakes as part of growth. Trying to erase failures is as dangerous in marketing as it is in memory. Noha points out, “You can't just erase away the pain… you won't learn if you don't make mistakes. A lot of marketers have to be super buttoned up, their campaigns have to work… there isn't a lot of opportunity for marketers these days to be allowed to make mistakes.” But the best brands learn from experiments that don't go as planned. Failure isn't wasted, it's the raw material for innovation, resilience, and better campaigns down the road.Quote“ As marketers…we explore the human psyche pretty much day in, day out, even if it's not explicitly said. But that's essentially what we do.”Time Stamps[00:55] Meet Noha Rizk, Chief Marketing Officer at Incorta[1:26] Why Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind?[5:51] Role of CMO at Incorta[9:07] Breaking Down Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind[22:11] B2B Marketing Takeaways from Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind[43:56] Final Thoughts and TakeawaysLinksConnect with Noha on LinkedInLearn more about IncortaAbout Remarkable!Remarkable! is created by the team at Caspian Studios, the premier B2B Podcast-as-a-Service company.

In today's episode, Todd unpacks the disturbing cultural fallout after the assassination of Charlie Kirk. Instead of uniting in grief, much of the radical Left has celebrated his death — with teachers, activists, and even public figures justifying or downplaying the murder. Todd explains why this reaction isn't just political rhetoric but evidence of what the Bible calls a reprobate mind — a worldview so twisted it calls evil good and good evil.Todd also highlights where hope remains. Sports franchises like the New York Yankees and NFL players honored Charlie Kirk with public tributes — a sign that some institutions long dominated by Leftist ideology may finally be turning toward truth and decency. At the same time, social media platforms like TikTok and Blue Sky reveal just how deep the cultural rot has spread, with celebratory posts about Charlie's death numbering in the thousands.This episode dives into the spiritual dimension of the culture war: how pride, arrogance, and moral numbness lead to dangerous reasoning and how rejecting God's truth eventually hardens minds and hearts. Todd calls for revival, courage, and a renewed fight for truth in politics, culture, and daily life.As always, Todd also updates listeners on housekeeping: guest hosts lined up for later this month, the relaunch of The Daily Truth newsletter, and sponsors that help you align your values with your financial and lifestyle choices.Listen in as Todd breaks down the darkness we face — and the hope we can still hold onto as we fight with courage and conviction.Freedom Marketplace: https://freedommarketplace.net The Stack: https://www.toddhuffshow.com/stack-of-stuff Email: todd@toddhuffshow.comPhone: 317.210.2830Follow us on…Instagram: @toddhuffshowFacebook: The Todd Huff ShowTwitter: @toddhuffshowLinkedIn: The Todd Huff ShowTikTok: @toddhuffshowSupport Our Partners:https://www.toddhuffshow.com/partners Show Sponsors: https://www.mypillow.com/todd Promo Code: TODD Red, White, & Brand – Text TODD at 317-210-2830 for a 10% discount.SolTea – Heart health made simple.

Episode 137 of the Award Travel 101 podcast featured guest Ian Carroll, founder of the award search tool Seats.aero. Angie opened with a highlight post from a member who discovered Chase is now more strictly enforcing repeat-sub restrictions, similar to Amex's lifetime rules. The episode also covered news of elevated welcome offers on IHG credit cards, refreshed Amex Delta card bonuses, and several ongoing mileage sales and hotel promotions. Angie shared her own recent credit card approvals and denials—including a Barclays Red card approval after a manual verification—while Ian celebrated finally getting the Atmos Summit card. Travel updates included Angie's upcoming New England trip and Miami meetup, and Ian's EVA and Starlux premium cabin bookings from San Francisco to Asia.The main topic focused on Seats.aero, exploring its origins, how the product vision has evolved, and what makes it unique among a crowded field of award search tools. Ian discussed how the platform stands out with features like customizable alerts, streamlined award searches, and the new “Seats.aero Assistant.” They also touched on hotel alert services, airline coverage gaps (like BA not yet being integrated), and planned enhancements for casual and advanced users alike.The episode wrapped with Angie's tip of the week: always follow up on bank communications. She shared how a letter from Barclays, which she initially considered ignoring, ended up securing her approval for another 70,000 AA miles after a quick verification call. The takeaway: those small steps can sometimes unlock big wins in the points-and-miles game.Where to Find Us The Free Award Travel 101 Community.

Isaac and Thorald Koren — known to many as The Kin—spent decades chasing the bright lights of the music industry. They toured the world, opened for Coldplay, P!NK, and Rod Stewart, and signed with major labels. But along the way, they discovered that the most powerful stage isn't a stadium — it's the human heart.In this episode of Ojai Talk of the Town, the Brothers Koren share the story behind their upcoming album, The Long Way Home, out this October. (Listen through the end of the episode for a sneak listen to the title track.)They also reflect on the moment they stepped away from the traditional industry grind to launch The Songwriter's Journey and Your Big Voice — transformational programs designed to help anyone reclaim their authentic expression through music.From boardrooms at Google and AMEX to retreat centers like Esalen and Omega, Isaac and Thorald have guided thousands of voices — from shy first-timers to seasoned executives —i nto a deeper relationship with creativity and self-worth. Along the way, they've become award-winning educators, Webby-recognized creators, and champions of a voice-positive world.Join us for a conversation about music, transformation, and what it really means to “take the long way home.” We did not talk about our favorite Food Tubers, the Shepherd Tone or Julian Jaymes' theory of the bicameral mind.To learn more about their transformative work, check out BrothersKoren.com
