From Denis Rancourt: “This means that the paradigm that a spreading viral respiratory disease caused the excess mortality during Covid is false. The said paradigm is disproved by empirical observations of high- resolution (weekly-monthly, county-region) geotemporal variations of age and frailty dusted excess mortality (P-score) on two continents in the Northern Hemisphere. Instead, the excess mortality appears to be entirely iatrogenic and induced by the imposed so-called pandemic response.” This is earth shattering data … However, instead getting a reckoning for COVID era atrocities or even acknowledgment of them, we are getting a gaslighting of epic proportion with Robert Kennedy Jr. and Jay Bhattacharya at the helm.

In this clip from the Monday episode of the North Shore Drive podcast, presented by Edgar Snyder & Associates, Post-Gazette insiders Christopher Carter and Ray Fittipaldo analyze which Steelers have boosted their stock the most during the NFL preseason. Does Roman Wilson looked poised for regular playing time alongside DK Metcalf and Calvin Austin III at wide receiver? Will Scotty Miller play an unexpectedly important role as he quickly becomes a favorite target for QB Aaron Rodgers? What will Yahya Black's role be on the defensive line? Will his snap counts be more in line with projected starters like Keeanu Benton, Cam Heyward and Derrick Harmon? Or other presumed depth options like Isaiahh Loudermilk? And has Broderick Jones shown that he's ready for the rigors at left tackle alongside young teammates like Troy Fautanu, Mason McCormick and Zach Frazier? Our duo tackles those questions and more.

In this clip from the Monday episode of the North Shore Drive podcast, presented by Edgar Snyder & Associates, Post-Gazette insiders Christopher Carter and Ray Fittipaldo analyze which Steelers have seen their stock drop the most during the NFL preseason. Has Cory Trice Jr. run out of time to prove he can stay healthy and earn a cornerback spot behind Jalen Ramsey, Joey Porter Jr. and Darius Slay Jr.? Is Will Howard in danger of landing on IR or even losing his roster spot amid strong outings by Skylar Thompson in the competition to back up Mason Rudolph and Aaron Rodgers? Why hasn't Robert Woods been able to hold off names like Scotty Miller and Roman Wilson in the receivers battle behind DK Metcalf and Calvin Austin III? Is DeMarvin Leal officially a bust on the defensive line? And why has the running game been so week? Do offensive linemen including Broderick Jones, Troy Fautanu and Zach Frazier deserve the blame? Or are RBs like Kenneth Gainwell and Kaleb Johnson showing shortcomings as well? Our duo tackles those questions and more.

In this clip from the Friday episode of the North Shore Drive podcast, presented by Edgar Snyder & Associates, host Adam Bittner welcomes Post-Gazette sports columnist Jason Mackey to react to the team's joint practice with the Tampa Bay Buccaneers at Acrisure Stadium. Were Jalen Ramsey, T.J. Watt and the defense humbled a bit by Buccaneers WR Mike Evans and QB Baker Mayfield, who will now reportedly sit out the teams' preseason game Saturday despite initially planning to play? How long will it take Ramsey to reach his potential within coach Mike Tomlin's defense? Why are communication issues -- cited by DB Brandin Echols -- still showing up after proving costly down the stretch last season? Does DC Teryl Austin need to prove he can fix them soon? And how much would this unit miss Cam Heyward if he holds out because of his contract dispute with GM Omar Khan? Do Keeanu Benton, Derrick Harmon and Yahya Black give the defensive line enough depth the weather the storm? Our duo tackles those questions and more.

In this clip from the Friday edition of the North Shore Drive podcast, presented by Edgar Snyder & Associates, host Adam Bittner welcomes Post-Gazette sports columnist Jason Mackey to analyze the Steelers' situation at receiver. Is Calvin Austin III's role in trouble, with Post-Gazette Steelers insider Ray Fittipaldo reporting that the receiver is set to miss the rest of te NFL preseason win an injury? Could GM Omar Khan still sign a veteran like Odell Beckham Jr., Amari Cooper or Gabe Davis? And where do Scotty Miller, Roman Wilson and Jonnu Smith fit into the conversation? Our duo tackles those questions and more.

What's on YOUR racing bucket list? For Dave Ogburn, it was a dream years in the making — and in this episode of Inside the SCCA, he finally checks it off.

New York State is arguably the home to the most tyrannical vaccine regime in the world, bar none. Every year thousands of children are force vaccinated according to the CDC recommended schedule as a mandatory requirement for entering all public, private and parochial schools. Even worse? Religious and philosophical exemptions are banned in NY and doctors are terrified to write medical exemptions due to threats from the state health authorities. And the brave doctors who will write a medical exemption are nearly ALWAYS denied. Not by doctors … but by school administrators. But now, everything has changed in NY as the tides turn against medical tyranny with a landmark decision: “In a major win for medical freedom, a New York federal judge late Tuesday ruled in favor of a preliminary injunction allowing a teenage girl who had been denied a medical vaccine exemption and barred from school to return to classes in September, pending the final outcome of her lawsuit against the school district.” ~ Children’s Health Defense This is a narrow, yet powerful victory which now spares thousands of NY school children from forced vaccination. More importantly, it opens the door for religious and philosophical exemptions to be reinstated in the most tyrannical vaccine regime in the world. Today we talk to Sarah Doe and her attorney Sujata Gibson about their amazing victory and what that means for medical freedom in NYS!

Our latest episode pulls back the curtain on the recently settled lawsuit between Brandon Payne and IKEA, providing unprecedented insight into both sides of this complex legal battle.We meticulously dissect three key legal documents: the detailed complaint from 48-year-old long-term employee Brandon Payne, IKEA's comprehensive response, and the surprising settlement filing from August 6, 2025. Payne's allegations paint a troubling picture of a corporate culture that allegedly preferred younger workers, with claims of explicit directives to hire managers under 35 and a reorganization initiative that resulted in his demotion and a staggering $10/hour pay cut.The most compelling aspects of this case lie in the patterns Payne documented – a series of promotion rejections where significantly younger, allegedly less qualified candidates were selected instead. We explore IKEA's firm denials and multi-pronged legal defense strategy, which maintained all decisions were based on legitimate business factors rather than age. What makes this case particularly significant is its connection to at least five other similar lawsuits against IKEA, suggesting potentially broader issues within the organization.Whether you're a business leader, HR professional, or simply interested in workplace equity, this episode offers crucial lessons about the delicate balance between organizational change and fair employment practices. The recent global settlement of these cases raises profound questions about the hidden costs of discrimination allegations beyond just legal expenses. How do such claims affect employee morale, public perception, and institutional trust? Listen now to understand the full story behind these headlines and what they reveal about age dynamics in today's workplace.

That’s $37,000,000,000,000. And if Joe Biden and the Democrats did this, conservative yappers would be losing their minds! This is becoming a theme isn’t it?

In an era where retail often feels transactional, Akira has spent 23 years proving that personal connection drives business success. Eric Hsueh, co-owner of the Chicago-based fashion brand, reveals how their 40-store chain has scaled authentic relationships without losing its boutique DNA. Eric expands on how technology can enable human relationship, rather than replace it.“I Believe In Stores”Key takeaways:Authenticity over automation: Akira actively combats formulaic retail interactions, training stylists to engage genuinely rather than asking "Can I help you find anything?" which Eric calls "nails on a chalkboard." - Eric [07:12]Micro-wins build macro loyalty: Individual moments—like finding the perfect jeans after 90 minutes—create lasting relationships that compound over years. "That's authenticity. And that is micro wins leading to building a business." - Eric [21:03]Technology enables, doesn't replace: Tools like texting and client data enhance personal relationships rather than scaling impersonal outreach. The focus remains "the one on one relationship, the personal connection." - Eric [16:14]Character comes first: When hiring, Eric prioritizes "energy, intelligence and integrity," with integrity being "first and foremost" because authentic relationships require genuine people. - Eric [09:14]Associated Links:Learn more about EndearCheck out Future Commerce on YouTubeCheck out Future Commerce+ for exclusive content and save on merch and printSubscribe to Insiders and The Senses to read more about what we are witnessing in the commerce worldListen to our other episodes of Future CommerceHave any questions or comments about the show?

In this clip from the Wednesday edition of the North Shore Drive podcast, presented by Edgar Snyder & Associates, host Adam Bittner welcomes Post-Gazette insider Christopher Carter to ponder the losers at Steelers training camp at Saint Vincent College in Latrobe. Could Robert Woods miss the team at receiver, having possibly been surpassed on the depth chart by names like Roman Wilson and Scotty Miller? Or does he still have a chance to find chemistry with QB Aaron Rodgers? Where does Isaiahh Loudermilk fit in the pecking order on the defensive line after rookies Derrick Harmon and Yahya Black had strong outings? Is Cory Trice Jr. in danger of losing a roster spot amid yet another injury? And with competitors like Beanie Bishop and James Pierre putting solid tape together? And could Skylar Thompson be a threat to Will Howard as the No. 3 QB behind Rodgers and Mason Rudolph? Our duo tackles those questions and more.

In this clip from the Wednesday edition of the North Shore Drive podcast, presented by Edgar Snyder & Associates, host Adam Bittner welcomes Post-Gazette insider Christoper Carter to ponder winners from Steelers training camp at Saint Vincent College in Latrobe. Why was Payton Wilson able to meet sky-high expectations at middle linebacker? How has Darnell Washington asserted himself in the passing game alongside names like Pat Freiermuth and Jonnu Smith? Has Yahya Black proven that he's the top reserve offensive lineman behind Cam Heyward, Keeanu Benton and Derrick Harmon? Is Scotty Miller now a lock to make the team after demonstrating chemistry with Aaron Rodgers? How much does Jalen Ramsey appear poised to transform this defense after the late offseason trade that brought him to Pittsburgh in exchange for Minkah Fitzpatrick? And has Broderick Jones successfully shaken off a rough first week to show he can be a strength for the offensive line? Our duo tackles those questions and more.

After navigating a challenging endometriosis diagnosis, multiple surgeries, and a complex healthcare system, Andria “Monique” Pourkarimi '25 decided to tackle a gap she experienced firsthand. While pursuing an online MBA at Rice, an idea born in the classroom grew into Dr. Clara, LLC — a women's health startup focused on closing the communication gap between patients and providers.Just a year earlier, Monique founded Pourkarimi & Associates, LLC, a financial consulting and independent insurance brokerage firm that helps clients navigate complex financial decisions and insurance needs. In this episode, Monique joins co-host Brian Jackson '21 to share how her health journey inspires her work with Dr. Clara, why financial and insurance literacy are so important, and what led her career from the aisles of Costco to entrepreneurship and a Rice MBA.Episode Guide:00:00 Introduction to Monique Pourkarimi01:23 Balancing Business and MBA09:08 The Inspiration Behind Dr. Clara10:46 Challenges and Advocacy in Women's Health19:19 Future Plans and Reflections22:29 The Importance of Financial Education27:43 Pursuing Public Policy for Healthcare Reform30:51 Concluding ThoughtsOwl Have You Know is a production of Rice Business and is produced by University FM.Episode Quotes:Where did Monique get her entrepreneurship spirit?07:45: I think entrepreneurship runs in my blood. So my uncle has a logistics company that is here in the US and transports in Mexico as well. My grandmother, she works with him and his business, and, my mom has her own insurance brokerage as well, specializing in Medicare. So independent of my pursuits, my grandmother and my mom are the ones who raised me. So here it was three generations of strong Mexican women who were, you know, just under one roof. And I think that is kind of what shaped me in terms of  the woman that I am today and that entrepreneurial spirit.Success is about impact, not numbers27:25: I think for me, success is counting how many people am I able to help at the end of the day, right? And it's not a number of just benchmarks of, oh, okay, I have a quota of helping 500,000 people. No, it's not about that at the end of the day. And do I confidently know that I have been able to help make a positive impact in this world? I do not want to leave it as I am starting these businesses because I am doing them for myself, or even with awards that I received through Rice. I think success is: what is my legacy? And if I were to die today, you know, what would people think about me? I think success is: what is my legacy? And if I were to die today, what would people think about me? Did I make a positive impact in people's life? That, to me, is success.The moment Monique said yes to Rice05:21: For me, I was thinking, wow, there is so much potential—especially with an MBA. There is so much potential I have in growing my businesses. And, as you said, Brian, being connected with the other students—I joke that Rice did all the background checks for us because I love my cohort. The people at Rice, the alumni—we are one big Happy Owl family. I had a lot of people who believed in me and were willing to help and point me in the right direction.Show Links: TranscriptGuest Profiles:2025 Best & Brightest Online MBA: Andria Monique Pourkarimi, Rice University (Jones) | Poets & QuantsAndria Monique Pourkarimi | LinkedIn

Is money the determining factor to school districts producing students who perform well? Surprisingly, the answer is no. If money alone were the key, a small town like Steubenville, Ohio, in Jefferson County on the Ohio River and part of the Rust Belt, would not perform as well as Upper Arlington, Ohio, an affluent community.No doubt, adequate funding is important, but other factors are equally important, such as whether a child's basic needs in order to thrive and succeed in the classroom are met. Many children are part of families that live in a van or perhaps in abandoned buildings. Not all children have what many take for granted, like electricity, running water or heat. Some may not eat regularly and aren't clothed properly. And then there's the matter of social capital, that is, those community connections a family has. Steubenville provides a good example. Based on an audit of the Ohio Department of Education conducted by the state auditor, published in 2021, Steubenville ranks in the top 10 percent of all Ohio school districts in terms of performance. And it does so spending far less money per student than Upper Arlington.The reason Steubenville is able to spend less money on education and still achieve high performance scores is strong community fabric. When you have social capital and those close connections that exist when adults take an interest in the life of students and teachers, students perform well. One rural district has a practice of ensuring that all new teachers ride on the school bus to get a sense for how their students live. Think about what that level of understanding does for a teacher. Listen to our conversation with Tracy Nájera, Ph.D., and Howard Fleeter, Ph.D. Tracy has committed her professional career to improving the lives of children and their families, especially those most vulnerable in society. Her experience spans research, program management and implementation and public policy. For most of her career, Tracy has worked in education policy, tackling issues such as school funding, professional learning and human capital in education. Howard has worked extensively for more than 25 years with Ohio education policy-makers to improve the state's school funding system and is the owner of the state and local government finance and tax policy consulting firm Howard Fleeter & Associates. He serves as a research consultant on education finance and policy issues for the Ohio Education Policy Institute.

Yes, Trump says the military is coming to NYC, LA and Chicago next to impose ‘law and order’.

On the Tuesday edition of the North Shore Drive podcast, presented by Edgar Snyder & Associates, Post-Gazette sports columnist welcomes insider Ray Fittipaldo to react to Cam Heyward's comments about his contract dispute with the Steelers. Did Heyward have valid critiques of dealing with GM Omar Khan's front office, a year after signing a contract extension? Why don't his comments seem to have helped his favorability among fans? And will he find a resolution that prevents him from missing regular season games? Later, the guys analyze the preseason victory against the Jacksonville Jaguars and what it tells us about the offense. Specifically, they discuss how valuable Broderick Jones and Troy Fautanu can be if they're both healthy and playing well at tackle this season; the encouraging contributions of receivers including Roman Wilson and Scotty Miller; and the importance of quick throws from QBs Mason Rudolph, Skylar Thompson and, eventually, Aaron Rodgers. They also give their thoughts on the overall roster depth and small offseason improvements that may have been overshadowed by big moves for Rodgers, Jonnu Smith, DK Metcalf and Jalen Ramsey.

We're hitting mid-August, summer is starting to wind down, and it's clear what is around the corner: football season. The Lions are 1-1 in the preseason, but are these games telling us anything? The Wolverines are back on the practice field with a new QB at the helm, will they be able to build off of the strong finish last season? The Tigers are stumbling but still leading the AL Central, are the playoffs still a sure thing? Also, a Tedertainment Tonight with Untamed, UnREAL, and The Hunting Wives reviews. All that and more, take a listen and hit us up @3pointpod!

On the Sunday episode of the North Shore Drive podcast, presented by Edgar Snyder & Associates, Post-Gazette Steelers insiders Christopher Carter and Brian Batko break down the team's 31-25 win over the Jaguars on Saturday night. Which players helped their case for a roster spot and which ones saw their stock fall? Did Mason Rudolph and Skylar Thompson make the most of their opportunity with Aaron Rodgers unlikely to play much, if at all, during the preseason? Did Arthur Smith's revamped play calling make a difference? How did Roman Wilson look in his first game action as a Steeler? How did Roman Wilson look in his first game action as a Steeler? Did Darnell Washington show progress as a pass catcher? On the defensive side of the ball, how did Payton Wilson look in his brief time on the field with the green dot on his helmet against the Jaguars starters? Did Beanie Bishop Jr. make a case for more playing time in a crowded Steelers secondary? And how did first-round pick Derrick Harmon look in his NFL debut?

Episode #376: “I think it's a big win. And also people may not like to hear this, it's actually a win for sanctions,” says Erich Ferrari, founder of Ferrari & Associates and a leading U.S. sanctions attorney. In this episode, he explains the legal and procedural framework behind the U.S. Specially Designated Nationals (SDN) list and responds to criticism over his firm's role in recent delistings of Myanmar-linked clients. Ferrari entered sanctions law after 9/11, troubled by the lack of due process in early terrorism-related designations towards Muslim charities. His firm now handles compliance, licensing, and delisting cases, which often take years to be resolved. The SDN list includes individuals, entities, and assets sanctioned under U.S. laws or executive orders for conduct or status deemed harmful to U.S. interests, but not necessarily for any illegal acts. OFAC, within the Treasury Department, manages the list, but designations involve interagency input from bodies such as the State Department, DOJ, and CIA. Removal requires proving mistaken designation, changed circumstances, or remediation. Ferrari says arguing OFAC was wrong rarely works; the focus must be on addressing its concerns. Even after delisting, reputational and financial restrictions often persist for years. The recent delisting of four Myanmar-linked parties, including Ferrari's clients, angered Burmese communities and rights advocates. Ferrari stresses that delistings signal sanctions' effectiveness, not weakness, and are decided by the U.S. government, not lawyers. He distinguishes legal representation from prohibited lobbying and accepts only clients committed to change and truthfulness. He closes by urging those at risk to treat allegations seriously and act preemptively to avoid designation.

“The way of a fool is right in his own eyes, but a wise man listens to advice.” — Proverbs 12:15Wise financial decisions don't happen in a vacuum—they often require wise counsel. But how do you know if the person giving you advice shares your convictions and values? Brian Cochran joins us today to explore how biblical wisdom should shape not just our decisions, but the voices we trust.Brian Cochran is a Certified Financial Planner (CFP®), a Certified Kingdom Advisor (CKA®), and also serves as the Chief Stewardship Officer at John Moore Associates. The “Why” Shapes EverythingAt John Moore Associates, a recently celebrated milestone tells a powerful story—over $50 million in charitable giving facilitated through the families they serve. This achievement isn't about accolades or financial performance. It reflects a deeper belief: money is a gift from God, but it was never meant to be the ultimate goal for an individual. It's a tool designed for Kingdom impact.Certified Kingdom Advisors® take a distinct approach to financial planning. While they certainly aim to help clients grow their wealth, they are equally—if not more—committed to helping them give it away with wisdom and purpose. The core question isn't just, “How can you accumulate more?” but, “How can you steward it more faithfully?”Their mission is to walk alongside families and help them become wise and generous stewards of the resources God has entrusted to them. That vision informs every client meeting, every piece of advice, and every long-term strategy. They don't see themselves merely as business professionals—they see themselves as called to influence families toward biblically grounded financial decisions that reflect God's character and priorities.They refer to this role as being “stewards of stewards.” Their job is to help others manage God's money in a way that aligns with His will—not just to build bigger portfolios, but to foster hearts that reflect His generosity.The Art of Financial PlanningAlthough financial planning encompasses technical elements such as taxes, investments, and estate strategies, it is far more than just numbers. Financial planning is as much an art as it is a science.That's because personal values, priorities, and convictions ultimately shape every financial decision. Two families with identical balance sheets may receive vastly different advice depending on the worldview and values of their advisor. Even the most technically sound recommendations can lead a client astray if they don't align with their faith or purpose.Families excited to step into greater generosity have occasionally faced resistance—not from financial limitations, but from professionals who didn't understand why anyone would want to give so much away. Similarly, some clients have discovered their portfolios include investments in industries that conflict with their convictions, such as pornography, abortion, or addictive products. These disconnects are more common than many realize.When an advisor doesn't understand a client's “why,” they may unintentionally work against it.When Values AlignBy contrast, working with an advisor who shares a client's biblical values can be transformational. Rather than resist generosity, they champion it. They help clients move beyond conventional financial goals and pursue eternal ones—cheering them on as they give, invest, and plan with Kingdom purpose.This values alignment also fosters deeper conversations about contentment and purpose. Advisors who understand the biblical call to stewardship help clients shift from an accumulation mindset to one that asks, “How much is enough?” That change can lead to greater peace, joy, and impact.It also affects how clients invest. With the guidance of a biblically aligned advisor, many discover new confidence and clarity by investing in companies or funds that reflect their values. In many cases, clients feel more engaged and excited knowing that their investments are not only earning a return but also honoring God.Questions to Ask a Potential AdvisorFor those seeking this kind of partnership, here are a few essential questions to ask any prospective advisor:What are your core values, both personally and as a firm?How do those values shape the way you serve your clients?How do you define success in a client relationship?How are you compensated? Are there any potential conflicts of interest?Most importantly: How will your advice support and strengthen my faith?These questions open the door to alignment—and can help avoid unnecessary confusion or compromise down the road.Many Christians are already working with an advisor, but over time begin to sense that their values may not fully align. That tension shouldn't be ignored. It may be time to ask the same questions listed above. If the answers fall short, it might be wise to explore a new advisor who shares a biblical worldview.Though changing advisors can feel daunting, staying with one who doesn't understand or support a client's convictions may come at a greater cost.A Higher Calling in Financial AdviceUltimately, stewardship is at the heart of every financial decision. Money is not just a personal asset—it's a divine responsibility. A truly aligned financial advisor serves not just as a guide for wealth management but also as a partner in helping Christians honor God with all that He has entrusted to them.For those looking to take that next step with confidence, a nationwide directory of Certified Kingdom Advisors is available at FaithFi.com.

This week on the Inside EMS Podcast, Chris Cebollero and Kelly Grayson dive deep into the What Paramedics Want in 2025 industry report — and let's just say, it's not all sunshine and stable shifts. The report, created in partnership with Fitch & Associates and sponsored by Pulsara, lays bare the hard truths: burnout is at an all-time high, staffing gaps are holding steady at crisis levels and confidence in leadership is lukewarm at best. Chris and Kelly get real as they discuss some of the shocking stats — such as, only 59% of agencies report having enough staff to answer 911 calls, and 76% of respondents now cite burnout as a critical issue. But this isn't just about fatigue; it's about leadership gaps, lack of support and workplaces that are driving out even the most seasoned medics. From the “mandatory overtime spiral” to why communication isn't just nice — it's a necessity — this episode tackles how broken systems are eroding morale and what leaders can (and must) do to change course. You'll hear why stay interviews matter more than exit interviews, how marijuana use is creeping up as a stress escape, and the simple steps agencies can take to rebuild trust and retention. Memorable quotes “If one-quarter of your work workforce says ‘we don't enjoy our jobs anymore' and ‘we don't enjoy working for you anymore,' you got a hell of a problem on your hands.” — Kelly Grayson “This isn't just burnout because of the things we're seeing.  This is because of staffing shortages. This is because of lack of funding. This is because of working overtime. This is because agencies are mandating overtime. And that's gonna lead to burnout.” — Chris Cebollero “What we have is a shortage of people who are willing to work for chump change and horrible working conditions.” — Kelly Grayson Enjoying the show?

In this clip from the Friday episode of the North Shore Drive podcast, presented by Edgar Snyder & Associates, host Adam Bittner and Post-Gazette sports columnist Jason Mackey wonder whether the Steelers defense can live up to the hype that's grown for the unit throughout training camp. Has the unit made enough changes to be elite? From adding veterans like Darius Slay Jr. and Jalen Ramsey to drafting rookies including Derrick Harmon, Jack Sawyer and Yahya Black? Can Payton Wilson live up to lofty expectations some have built for him? How immediately can Harmon and Black be difference makers? And what kind of pressure is on Joey Porter Jr. to excel after a relative sophomore slump in 2024? Our duo tackles those questions and more.

In this clip from the Friday episode of the North Shore Drive podcast, presented by Edgar Snyder & Associates, host Adam Bittner and Post-Gazette sports columnist Jason Mackey react to coach Mike Tomlin's long list of 15 Steelers veterans who are being held out of the NFL preseason opener against the Jacksonville Jaguars. Is it smart to rest names like Aaron Rodgers, DK Metcalf, Jonnu Smith, Jalen Ramsey, T.J. Watt, Cam Heyward and Joey Porter Jr.? Or would it be nice to see some of these players as both the offense and defense look to integrate numerous additions? They also ponder what they'd like to see from the guys who will play. How important is it that Broderick Jones show some life at left tackle, as he looks to prove that he's not the weak link in a unit that includes Mason McCormick, Zach Frazier and Troy Fautanu? Can Roman Wilson take advantage of reps as the possible No. 1 receiver in this game? And what can we expect from rookies including Derrick Harmon, Yahya Black, Jack Sawyer and Kaleb Johnson?

WATCH LIVE HERE: https://rumble.com/c/TheShannonJoyShow‘Digital ID' was trending on Twitter this morning (and not in a good way, which is a good thing).Thankfully the awareness and resistance is mounting and medical freedom warrior Michael Yeadon is (again) leading the way with a very clear warning and directive to REFUSE the Digital ID in all forms. His critical remarks are linked below.And while Trump is building the digital prison, he is demolishing the most central component of American freedom and self determination, the ability to own a home. The housing crises is real and it could lead to financial disaster. Daniel Horowitz lays it all out quite starkly in this critical piece, also linked below.“Sellers are trapped in low-rate loans. Buyers can't climb high enough to reach inflated prices. And the market, once again, is frozen by design. It's never been more unaffordable to buy and finance a home in America. And yet, government officials seem confused about the cause, chasing “solutions” that will only make things worse.” ~Daniel HorowitzBig show today with Technocracy expert and researcher Courtaney Turner!While central banks and political elites are pushing you into crypto scams, they are quietly hoarding gold, silver, land and physical assets.

On the Wednesday episode of the North Shore Drive podcast, presented by Edgar Snyder & Associates, host Adam Bittner welcomes Post-Gazette insider Christopher Carter to analyze the team's increasing volume of injuries during Steelers training camp. How much will Will Howard's hand injury -- which reportedly will keep him out at least three weeks -- stymie his progress in challenging Mason Rudolph for the No. 2 QB job? How much should fans worry about Calvin Austin III, who's missed several practices as he looks to prove he can be a capable WR2 behind DK Metcalf? And have the absences of names like Jonnu Smith, Joey Porter Jr., Isaac Seumalo and others simply been the normal wear and tear of camp at Saint Vincent College in Latrobe? Our duo tackles those questions, then talks receivers. Is Roman Wilson starting to turn a corner in his chemistry with QB Aaron Rodgers after a highlight-reel catch Tuesday? Is Scotty Miller still in the mix to make the roster despite failing to see the field much with Justin Fields and Russell Wilson in 2024? Could the Steelers still make a move for a veteran like Amari Cooper? Or are they confident in their depth and other veterans like Robert Woods and Ben Skowronek.
