Watch on Philo! - Philo.tv/DTHThe episode starts with cruisers talking about who they are most existed to see - Tyler Hynes, Taylor Cole, Jonathan Bennett, everyone! With little clips of what's to come this season. Lots of hugging. Lots of crying. We meet Paige, Alexandrea and their mom Kerry. The Vermeer family. Mom cries when talking about how excited she is to go on this cruise. Alexandra is the daughter in law but she feels like they're the family she's always wanted and both Alexandrea and Paige talk about how much momma Kerry has done for them. They show up at the cruise and are wearing matching Vermeer Girls sweatshirt. They're blown away by all the decorations. The room though? Tiny. It's a twin bed with a single bed over top. And they immediately get to work on decorating their door. That's a big deal for cruisers. We then meet Rob & Donna - they've been together for 9 years. Rob is freakin jacked. He broke both of her ribs after trying to pop her back at the gym. And that's true love. They have a bunch of hallmark actor ornaments in their tree. She loves Paul Campbell and he loves Nikki DeLoach. They get on board and immediately bump into Jonathan Bennet and he's just wheeling and dealing like Jonathan Bennet is one to do.,We then meet Carol, Cathy, and Nate who is celebrating his 16th birthday on the cruise and he is pumped. Nate is there with his two grandmas. And he's a bit of a celeb because he posted on the cruise Facebook group that it's his birthday. We then meet Lori and her sister. They live in separate states so they're so excited to go on this cruise. Lori is a fellow Christmas crazy and is excited to decorate their room. The Veneer family are back and momma Kerry talks about how she's happily married and she knows Wes Brown is happily married, but she has been given a hall pass in case Wes is interested. She calls it her hallmark pass. My guy Rob is gonna propose to Donna and is hoping they can get married on the cruise! Night 1 comes and it's time for the Christmas tree lighting on top of the ship. We then meet Alice and Gail. Best friends since 10th grade, 46 years ago. And they are our black friends. They're excited to meet Tyler Hynes. And Alicia is gonna try to get Gail to get out of her comfort zone. So everyone's up on top of the ship. JB comes out and does his thing. Tyler Hynes comes on stage in a bath robe. It's a whole thing. Paige is very into him and she thinks they would hit it off really well. She yells at him to take it off. While momma Kerry is just going nuts over Wes Brown. We find out Paige has some news she has to tell her mom - she's moving out of Texas. But she's nervous .Victoria tells her sister Lora she's pregnant right after Lora gets them both champagne. Rob and Donna get a picture with Erin Cahill and of course she's just the sweetest. They talk to her for a bit. We find out that Donna had to have brain surgery last holiday season. So they're both really excited to be there. And he's trying to find the right time to propose to her. But not while Erin Cahill is there. It's time for Carol-oke. Gail and Alicia show up. Alicia signs them up. Gail is pissed. She does not get to that stage and Alicia shames her from the stage. We get Gail in a confessional having to psychoanalyze why she doesn't wanna get out of her comfort zone. The sisters show up for trivia, hosted by Nikki DeLoach and Andrew Walker. And Andrew is just hugging everyone. And these sisters suck at trivia. And then there's the boot shot with Tyler Hynes. It's madness. Paige is pumped. But then Wes Brown walks in and Kerry is pumped. They hug. And Paige says “I've been told to call you step-dad”. And then Kerry says it …. You're my hallmark pass. Wes is just so chill. JB is also there and Paige is like can you give Tyler Hynes my number? And he's like I can do that. And I'm weirdly invested in this. Nate has lost his grandmas. So he's going around and asking “has anyone seen some grandmas?”. Turns out they're hiding becuase they're annoyed by Nate. Turns out his birthday isn't even today, it's December 10th. Fricken liar. So Rob goes into the gym and Paul Campbell is there. They have matching black tanks. So he tells him that he's gonna propose and wants to get married on the ship. Paul is like hey I can officiate your wedding here. He pulls Andrew walker in. Rob is like oh boy. Now I really need to ask her.
In this monthly book club edition of Yet Another Value Podcast, host Andrew Walker is joined by Byrne Hobart of The Diff and Capital Gains to unpack Ray Dalio's latest book, How Countries Go Broke: The Big Cycle. The pair probe Dalio's sweeping macroeconomic theories, debt cycles, historical analogies, and technology's role in shaping the future. They scrutinize the credibility of Dalio's claims, the real-world implications of sovereign debt risks, and the potential misapplications of macro trading skills to macroeconomic policymaking. The conversation winds through AI's effect on productivity, the staying power of elites through societal upheavals, and even the viability of crypto as a hedge. It's a rich analysis with sharp skepticism and economic nuance._________________________________________________[00:00:00] Podcast and guest introduction[00:01:38] Initial thoughts on Dalio's book[00:05:26] Short vs. long debt cycles[00:06:40] Historical cycle timing critique[00:07:24] Pre-WWI and 1930s comparison[00:10:11] Disconnection between theories and globalization[00:16:25] Institutional trust and economic cycles[00:18:18] Credibility of Dalio's theories[00:21:26] Macro trading vs. macro policy[00:24:42] Trump-era policy implications[00:26:19] Foreign debt selling as signal[00:28:14] Put options in tail events[00:32:35] Buffett's strategic puts example[00:35:32] Technology optimism in final chapter[00:40:25] AI effects on labor, productivity[00:45:43] Older professionals using AI[00:47:00] Book's global bearish stance[00:51:22] Historical elite persistence examples[00:53:45] Bitcoin in crisis scenarios[01:01:54] Sovereign wealth fund proposal critiqueLinks:Yet Another Value Blog: https://www.yetanothervalueblog.com See our legal disclaimer here: https://www.yetanothervalueblog.com/p/legal-and-disclaimer

In this episode, Zach sits down with friend and colleague Andrew Walker, Director of Industry Communications at GMAC, to unpack the latest insights from the 2025 Prospective Students Survey. They dive into what 5,000 prospective business school candidates around the world are thinking about today — from the growing demand for hands-on AI experiences to the rising importance of human skills, like grit and adaptability. You'll hear why more candidates are prioritizing ROI over program rankings, how financial planning is evolving, and why in-person programs are making a surprising comeback. Whether you're actively applying, just starting to explore your options, or simply curious about what's shaping the future of graduate management education, this conversation offers data-backed insights and practical takeaways you won't want to miss. Takeaways: 46% of business school candidates prioritize AI experiences in their curriculum. Employers value human skills like emotional intelligence and adaptability alongside technical skills. Cost remains a significant barrier for candidates considering business school. Only 29% of candidates prioritize program rankings first when researching schools. Candidates are increasingly looking for direct information from school websites, not AI. The MBA remains the most preferred degree, but interest in business master's programs is growing. Candidates prefer full-time in-person programs over hybrid or online formats post-pandemic. Financial aid is becoming a more significant part of funding education for candidates. Candidates are considering a multi-dimensional approach to their return on investment from business school.

He opens with an update on KROS, a position he's long, discussing the company's surprising move to evaluate strategic alternatives and what it reveals about investor skepticism in the busted biotech space. Andrew continues with a candidcritique of the biotech sector's structural inefficiencies, urging investors to push harder on corporate governance rather than avoid the "activist" label. From there, he explores how stock-based compensation can become more damaging when share prices fall and reflects on the mental and strategic discipline needed in volatile markets.

In this episode of Yet Another Value Podcast, host Andrew Walker returns for a solo discussion on Keros Therapeutics (KROS), a biotech firm navigating a dramatic fall from grace. Once buoyed by hopes for its leading drug Cybo (KER-012), KROS is now reeling from halted trials and a steep drop in share price. Andrew lays out the case for why this company, despite setbacks, may still hold considerable value. He explores KROS's licensing deal with Takeda, their significant cash reserves, and questions surrounding its future direction. Calling on shareholder alignment and corporate governance, Andrew challenges listeners to consider whether KROS is veering into zombie biotech territory—or poised for a smart pivot.Stat+ article on zombie biotechs and Sutro: https://www.statnews.com/2025/03/19/sutro-bio-biotech-luvelta/Chapters:[00:00:00] Sponsor and Intro[00:03:00] Recap of Sage Pharmaceuticals as a case study in shareholder value.[00:04:48] Introduction to KROS and its recent setbacks, including Cybo's trial halt.[00:05:05] Defining the “zombie biotech” phenomenon and why it matters.[00:08:21] Misaligned incentives between management and shareholders in troubled biotechs.[00:10:04] Why KROS's partnership with Takeda could be its most valuable asset.[00:13:14] Review of KROS's three main drugs: Cybo, 065, and 050 (licensed to Takeda).[00:14:55] Risk-adjusted value potential of KROS's royalties from Takeda deal.[00:17:01] Mixed data from 065 and skepticism from analysts.[00:18:09] Potential but doubtful value remaining in Cybo post-trial shutdown.[00:18:40] KROS's massive cash balance vs. market cap and implications for shareholder returns.[00:20:05] Breakdown of 2023 overhead and burn rate concerns.[00:21:53] Call for drastic cost cuts and corporate reevaluation.[00:23:36] Analysis of board alignment and concern over lack of urgency.[00:25:44] Why KROS no longer needs a science-heavy board.[00:28:44] Shareholder engagement as a tool to prevent value destruction.[00:31:33] Encouragement for listeners to contact the board and advocate for value-maximizing outcomes.Links:See our legal disclaimer here: https://www.yetanothervalueblog.com/p/legal-and-disclaimer

In this episode of Yet Another Value Podcast, host Andrew Walker welcomes back Adam Patinkin of David Capital for his third appearance—this time for a much-requested update on British homebuilder and regeneration specialist Vistry (RY). Adam originally laid out a bold thesis in early 2024 that Vistry's transition to a pure-play partnerships business could mirror the NVR success story. But after a string of profit warnings and a collapsing share price, listeners wanted answers. Adam walks through what went wrong, why the company's current valuation doesn't match its fundamentals, and why David Capital doubled its position. The discussion probes management credibility, capital allocation, and how UK government policy is now aligning with Vistry's strategy.______________________________________________________________________[00:00:00] Intro and sponsor message for upcoming AI & finance webinar [00:00:40] Andrew welcomes Adam Patinkin for a follow-up discussion on Vistry [00:01:29] Context and disclaimer before discussing UK-listed stock Vistry [00:02:18] Adam gives a quick overview and update on Vistry's journey in 2024 [00:02:58] Explanation of David Capital doubling their position in Vistry [00:03:59] The original investment thesis in Vistry: value plus catalyst approach [00:04:51] Breakdown of Vistry's two segments: partnerships vs. housebuilding [00:06:58] Thesis: Transition to a pure-play partnerships business [00:08:34] Discussion on profit warnings and their impact on investor sentiment [00:10:13] Details of Vistry's missteps and housebuilding write-downs [00:12:29] Analysis of the market's reaction to one-time losses [00:15:29] Third warning due to delayed land sales and management's response [00:16:34] Clarification of misunderstandings around ongoing losses [00:17:57] Adam frames the four-part thesis and which parts still hold [00:19:09] Reaffirmation of medium-term targets for partnerships [00:20:54] Discussion on pace of housebuilding exit and management's actions [00:23:34] Ongoing share buybacks and potential for expansion [00:24:37] Breakdown of customer segments in the partnerships business [00:26:19] UK government's budget and policy impact on affordable housing [00:31:14] Overview of supportive labor government housing initiatives [00:35:05] Cash flow expectations from capital employed reduction [00:36:29] Valuation commentary and mispricing opportunities [00:37:54] Assessment of credibility and investment upside [00:41:51] Discussion on net debt figures and transparency [00:43:40] Capital structure comparisons with other builders [00:46:21] Considerations around lower buybacks vs. future flexibility [00:49:10] Why Vistry still represents compelling value despite concerns [00:52:08] Differentiating Vistry from UK housebuilder peers [00:55:05] Clarification of the NAV not falling due to deferred land sales [00:57:21] Framing margin of safety by cash flows rather than asset base [00:59:54] Summary of company positioning, tailwinds, and outlook Links:Daloopa Webinar: daloopa.com/yavwebinarDavid Capital: https://davidpartners.com/See our legal disclaimer here: https://www.yetanothervalueblog.com/p/legal-and-disclaimer
