Today we taste test the new limited-edition Banana Nut Bread M&M's live on the stream. Then we pivot to a viral TikTok of two people kissing in Central Park that's sparked a massive debate — is it okay to film strangers in public and turn them into content? The morality police chime in.  Next up, Disney is auctioning off real treasures from inside Disneyland and Walt Disney World — Big Thunder Mountain props, a giant Miss Piggy figure, a Tomorrowland trash can, and more. We pull up the photos and quiz Alex on what they are.  We close with an insane survival story: an ER nurse was impaled by his own trekking pole on Montana's tallest mountain, assessed his own injuries, and hiked 10 miles out with it still in his body.

Are live auctions the right way to buy and sell reptiles?This week, we're sharing our thoughts on the growing conversation around live reptile auctions. While auctions have long been a part of industries like livestock and farm animals, we discuss why we don't think the same model is a good fit for reptiles. We break down some of the concerns, where we see potential issues, and what we'd rather see for the future of the hobby.Then we switch gears for another round of "Are You the Type of Girl?" This time we're talking vacation styles. Are you the type to have every restaurant booked and a color-coded itinerary planned months in advance, or do you prefer to land, explore, and see where the trip takes you? We compare our travel styles and share a few stories from vacations past.From thoughtful reptile discussions to lighthearted debates, this week's conversation has a little something for everyone.Get early access to episodes: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/the-wild-type-podcast/subscribeFollow the podcast: - https://www.instagram.com/thewildtypepodcast/- https://www.tiktok.com/@thewildtypepodcast- Merch: https://the-wild-type-podcast-llc-shop.fourthwall.com/Follow Neptune the Chameleon:- https://www.youtube.com/c/NeptunetheChameleon/- http://instagram.com/neptunethechameleon- https://tiktok.com/@neptunethechameleon- http://facebook.com/neptunethechameleon- https://www.neptunethechameleon.comFollow Lyssa's Lizards:- https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCmZaN6Q4yOt1j36J0-Ml6LQ- https://www.instagram.com/lyssaslizards- https://www.tiktok.com/@lyssaslizards- https://m.facebook.com/p/Lyssas-Lizards-100064470381677/- https://www.lyssaslizards.comSponsors:- https://www.pangeareptile.com/wildtype- https://symtonbsf.com/- https://reptilekages.com/- https://thebiodude.com/- https://frostbitefeeders.com/- https://arcadiareptile.com/?utm_source=the_wild_type&utm_medium=podcast

Nowhere else in the world sells houses quite like Australia does – on a stranger's nature strip or in their backyard, in front of a crowd, hammer and all. Street auctions have grown in popularity over recent years, as property values soar to unprecedented heights. The Victorian Greens claim the system is designed to push up prices by pressuring buyers into paying more, and they want these street auctions gone entirely. Today we unpack why Australia does this in the first place, the state of play overseas, and whether the proposed ban is actually realistic.

Macca and Kenny are joined live in the studio by Aiv Puglielli Legislative Council Member for Nth East Metro; Aust Greens; as they discuss if Victoria should abolish street auctions? The Greens’ proposal to change how homes are sold Standing on a suburban footpath while an auctioneer calls for bids has become part of Melbourne’s identity. But should that tradition come to an end? The Victorian Greens say outdoor auctions create unnecessary pressure on buyers and are proposing legislation to move property sales indoors or online instead. Joining us is Greens MP Aiv Puglielli. The Victorian Greens have announced the housing policy they will take to the state election, which among other things would ban outdoor residential property auctions. Auctions could still occur indoors or online or in another private format, but not publicly, which the Greens argue create a performative atmosphere where buyers feel pressure to exceed their budgets because of competition, social expectation and fear of missing out. The Greens also propose: To compel agents to disclose auction reserve prices before sale; To require real estate agents and buyers' agents to declare fixed fees; To require vendors to foot the bill for building and pest reports. To Abolish stamp duty for homes up to $1.1 million in value Increase land tax to 5.3% for investors with more than $5 million in investment properties, Build over 88,000 public homes Cap maximum rent increase every year at wage growth rate (or inflation, whichever is lower). Jacinta Allan's Labor Government introduced laws in June that require agents to publish a reserve price at least seven days before any auction or sale, as well as to disclose the final sold price to the public. These laws come into effect on October 1. Labor has also promised to force sellers to pay for building and pest inspections if re-elected.

The Greens’ proposal to change how homes are sold appeared first on Saturday Magazine.

META's stock surged last week, but investors shouldn't ignore the risks. Meta shares climbed last week as Wall Street became increasingly optimistic about the company's AI strategy. The stock was up about15% for the week and erased the year-to-date losses. Investors are betting that Meta's enormous spending on AI infrastructure, custom chips, top engineering talent, and next-generation models will lead to faster revenue growth, stronger advertising tools, and new revenue streams over the next several years. The market clearly believes Meta has positioned itself as one of the leaders in the AI race. But while investors were celebrating, Europe reminded everyone that even great companies face meaningful risks. The European Commission announced preliminary findings that Facebook and Instagram may violate the Digital Services Act because of what regulators call "addictive design" features, including infinite scrolling, autoplay videos, and recommendation algorithms that encourage users to stay engaged for longer periods. If the findings become final and Meta does not make sufficient changes, the company could face fines of up to 6% of its global annual revenue, along with potential changes to how its platforms operate across Europe. Meta has disputed the findings and says it has already implemented significant protections for younger users. This could amount to a fine of around $12 B, but the bigger problem I see is a potential hit to ad revenue if they must change their business practices. Europe is an important part of their business considering it accounts for about 23% of overall company sales. We also can't forget the legal liability Meta is facing in the United States, which could ultimately total as much as $1.4 trillion. That number may sound shocking, but it stems from multiple lawsuits brought by numerous states and plaintiffs. The first major cases are scheduled to go to trial in August, with California, Colorado, New Jersey, and Kentucky leading the way. The lawsuits allege deceptive business practices, and potential penalties range from $2,000 to $20,000 per violation. Given Meta's massive user base, those fines could accumulate rapidly if the courts rule against the company. Beyond civil penalties, the states are also seeking disgorgement of profits, which would require Meta to surrender profits earned from the alleged misconduct during the relevant period. If Meta performs poorly in these initial cases, another 25 states have similar lawsuits waiting in the wings, significantly increasing the company's legal exposure. There are already signs that these legal challenges carry real financial risk. New Mexico recently won a $375 million judgment against Meta, and a separate federal trial is scheduled to begin early next year. The AI opportunity is also far from guaranteed. Today, investors are rewarding companies that appear to be winning the AI race, but the competitive landscape is becoming more crowded every quarter. OpenAI, Anthropic, Google, Microsoft, xAI, and others are investing billions of dollars to develop better models and attract developers. Meta has responded aggressively by spending heavily on infrastructure and recruiting top AI researchers, but there is no guarantee those investments will generate returns that justify the enormous capital being deployed. A big problem is today's leader in AI can quickly become tomorrow's follower if innovation slows. I also believe that all of these companies will not succeed in this space, which will mean enormous amounts of wasted capital for the losers. Wall Street seemed to be focused almost entirely on Meta's AI upside last week, and that optimism may continue to drive the stock higher. But investors should remember that valuation is increasingly dependent on AI execution while regulatory scrutiny remains elevated. If AI spending fails to produce the expected returns or regulators force changes that weaken engagement, today's bullish narrative could change quickly. Meta remains one of the strongest companies in technology, but even great businesses are not risk-free. As investors, it's important to weigh both the opportunities and the risks, not just the headlines driving the stock higher today.   The spring home sales season disappointed in June The spring home-selling season ended on a disappointing note. Through May, existing home sales had been showing signs of improvement, and many real estate professionals were becoming more optimistic about the housing market. However, June's data told a different story. The conflict involving Iran contributed to higher inflation expectations and pushed mortgage rates higher, weighing on buyer demand. Existing home sales fell 2.4% in June to a seasonally adjusted annual rate of 4.09 million homes, well below economists' expectations for a 0.7% increase. Despite the monthly decline, the longer-term trend remains somewhat more encouraging. Existing home sales were still up 2.8% compared with a year ago, suggesting that underlying demand has not disappeared. There continues to be pent-up demand from prospective buyers, but many seem unwilling to make such a large financial commitment while borrowing costs remain elevated, even as housing inventory continues to improve According to Freddie Mac, the average 30-year fixed mortgage rate was 6.43% last week. If mortgage rates remain near these levels, many prospective homebuyers may continue to delay their purchases, preventing a stronger recovery in the housing market.   Another Hidden Cost of AI: Steel Most people know that the AI buildout has driven up demand for advanced computer chips, contributing to higher prices for smartphones, laptops, and other electronics. They also know that AI data centers require enormous amounts of electricity, putting upward pressure on utility rates as more power is diverted to support AI infrastructure. But there's another cost that receives far less attention: steel. Steel is a critical component of every data center. Industry estimates suggest that new data centers will consume roughly 1 million tons of steel annually, representing approximately $1.4 billion in demand. Steel is used throughout these facilities from the structural columns, roof joists, and roof decking to the server racks that house thousands of AI processors. This growing demand has ripple effects throughout the economy. Higher steel demand can contribute to increased costs for automobiles, household appliances, commercial buildings, bridges, and countless other products that rely on steel. The impact doesn't stop there. Steel production is one of the most energy-intensive manufacturing processes. A single electric furnace steel mill can consume anywhere from around 50 to 200 megawatts of electricity per day, competing for the same power resources as AI data centers. As both industries demand more electricity, utilities face increasing pressure to expand generating capacity. Ultimately, who pays for that increased demand? The answer is often the consumer. Higher electricity demand can translate into higher utility bills for households and businesses as utilities invest in additional generation and transmission infrastructure. In regions where electricity supply is already tight, the competition for power is becoming even more apparent. For example, PJM Interconnection, the nation's largest regional transmission organization, plans to begin conducting supplemental power auctions with electricity generators in September to help secure additional supply. Auctions reward the highest bidders, meaning electricity increasingly flows to those willing to pay the most. As large industrial users and AI data centers bid aggressively for power, consumers could face higher electricity prices if supply fails to keep pace with demand. AI will likely bring enormous productivity gains and economic benefits over the long run. However, it is also creating secondary inflationary pressures that extend well beyond semiconductors. Steel, electricity, construction materials, and other critical inputs are all experiencing increased demand, and those costs eventually work their way through the economy. As the AI revolution accelerates, these indirect costs are likely to become an increasingly important part of the inflation story.   Inflation Is Cooling... But Don't Pop the Champagne Yet The latest CPI report was another encouraging sign that inflation is moving in the right direction. Headline CPI declined 0.4% in June, marking the largest monthly drop since 2020, while the annual inflation rate slowed to 3.5% from 4.2% in May. Core inflation, which excludes food and energy, was flat on the month and eased to 2.6% year over year. Much of the improvement was driven by a sharp decline in gasoline and broader energy prices. While this is welcome news, I'd caution against declaring victory over inflation. One of the biggest challenges with inflation is that it doesn't always show up in the headline numbers immediately. It often works its way through the economy in waves, especially when it comes to energy. A good example is my own pool service. My pool guy recently raised his prices, likely for two reasons: higher chemical costs and the increased cost of driving from house to house. Those are both directly tied to energy markets. Even if gasoline prices temporarily fall and help bring down CPI for a month, businesses often adjust prices more slowly because they have to account for prior cost increases and the uncertainty of where energy prices are headed next. That's why I think investors should remain cautious. The recent improvement in inflation was helped significantly by lower oil and gasoline prices following a temporary easing in geopolitical tensions. But with conflict in the Middle East once again threatening energy supplies and oil prices recently moving higher, that relief could prove short-lived. The trend is encouraging, and the Federal Reserve will certainly welcome softer inflation data. But as long as energy prices remain vulnerable to geopolitical events, inflation is likely to remain unpredictable. Businesses from manufacturers to small local service providers will likely continue to pass along higher input costs whenever they have to. One softer CPI report is good news. But sustained price stability will likely require a concrete outcome in the Middle East and more stability in the energy market. While again we welcome the positive news in this CPI report, the conversation around in inflation and what to do with interest rates will continue with the ongoing developments in Iran.   Higher Gas Prices Aren't Stopping the American Consumer If you were looking for evidence that higher gas prices are slowing down the American consumer, the latest retail sales report doesn't provide much support. The headline number was relatively modest, with retail and food services sales increasing 0.2% from May. But the year-over-year numbers tell a much stronger story. Total retail and food services sales were up 6.7% from June of last year. Even if you exclude gas stations, which saw an increase of 19.8%, retail sales still grew at an impressive rate of 5.7%. More importantly, when you look across the major spending categories, not a single major category declined year over year. Furniture and home furnishing stores was the only major category that was flat compared to last year, but again it wasn't negative! Some of the strongest performers included non-store retailers, which primarily includes online shopping, increased 14.2%. Electronics and appliance stores were up 8.6%, while clothing and clothing accessories increased by 4.8%. Building materials and garden equipment stores were up 3.5% One of the more interesting data points is that Americans are still spending money at restaurants and bars. Food services and drinking places were up 3.8% year over year, showing that consumers continue to spend on experiences and dining out despite higher costs and concerns about the economy. The big takeaway is that the consumer remains remarkably resilient. Yes, higher gas prices can eventually put pressure on household budgets. But so far, consumers have continued to spend across virtually every major category. The year-over-year numbers show broad-based growth, not just spending concentrated in one or two areas. The consumer may be under pressure, but they are clearly not out of the game yet.   Financial Planning: What's Next for Social Security The Social Security Trustees' most recent solvency report highlights the need for Congress to address the program's long-term funding shortfall. Under current projections, the retirement trust fund is expected to be depleted in 2032, at which point ongoing payroll tax revenue would be sufficient to pay only about 78% of scheduled benefits unless legislative changes are made. Importantly, this does not mean Social Security will become insolvent or stop paying benefits, it means benefits would be reduced if Congress takes no action. While no specific legislation has emerged, many policy experts expect Congress to adopt a combination of gradual reforms rather than a single sweeping change. Potential solutions include increasing the Social Security payroll tax rate from 6.2%, raising or eliminating the taxable wage cap from $184,500, increasing the full retirement age from 67 for younger workers, and slowing future benefit growth for higher-income retirees. Historically, when Congress has made changes to Social Security, it has phased them in over many years, and most proposals would leave current retirees and those approaching retirement largely unaffected. As a result, individuals already receiving benefits or those within roughly the next decade of retirement are generally expected to experience little or no change, with the majority of reforms likely to apply to younger generations who have more time to prepare.   Companies Discussed: Nike, Inc.

We're back in time for both the 111th Episode and the belated 5th Anniversary of the Camerosity Podcast!  Even though we forgot about our own anniversary, we commemorated the occasion with a topic from the Discord suggestion box, buying cameras from Japanese auctions!  If at first, this seems like a dry topic, then clearly you aren't the target audience for this show as any option for more GAS is always welcome here! Joining Anthony, Paul, Stephen, Theo, and Mike are a combination of regular callers and a couple newbies, A.J. Gentile, Bryan Hewitt, NP from Discord, Greg Harp, Heath from Maryland, Ira Cohen, Jeremy Scott, Jody Oliver, Marty Olsen, Nick Marshall, Ron Gee, and Will Pinkham! For those who have only experienced buying cameras through eBay, the first thing you should know about buying on Japanese auction sites is that if you are not in Japan, you need to use a proxy and while there are many out there, they're not all the same.  Starting off the show, we attempt to explain the differences between the most popular options, what's similar about them and more importantly, what's different. On the show were a large number of people who have experience with these types of proxy sites, so the various callers shared their experiences, both good and bad, with them, detailing what they liked and where things can go wrong. In our attempt to explain how all these proxies work, we did a pretty poor job of promoting them, and by the end of the show, we may have turned people off from ever wanting to use one!  But hey, the more information you have, the better you are able to make a decision. While a majority of the show stayed on topic, we did get to some recent GAS near the end, including Mike's white whale and pickups from A.J., Greg, Will, and a purchase that Stephen made during the show! As always, the topics we discuss on the Camerosity Podcast are influenced by you!  Please don't feel like you have to be an expert on a specific type of camera, or have the level of knowledge on par with other people on the show.  We LOVE people who are into shooting or collecting cameras, no matter how long you've been doing it, so please don't consider your knowledge level to be a prerequisite for joining! The guys and I rarely know where each episode is going to go until it happens, so if you'd like to join us on a future episode, be sure to look out for our show announcements on our Camerosity Podcast Facebook page, the Camerosity Discord server, and right here on mikeeckman.com. We usually record every other Monday and announcements, along with the Zoom link are typically shared 2-3 days in advance. The recording for the next show is just a couple days away, but for Episode 112, we are going to discuss fixed lens rangefinders and SLRs.  While collectors and users often get the most excited over interchangeable lens cameras, there were a huge number of excellent fixed lens cameras and since many don't get a lot of love, we hope to change that on the next show.  We will record Episode 112 on Monday, July 20th at 7pm Central Daylight Time, 8pm Eastern Daylight Time, and 6pm Canada Saskatchewan Time.  For more time zones, please consult the World Time Buddy calculator and plug in your time.  Make sure you set your calendars and look out for the show announcement at the usual locations and be prepared to join us! In This Episode 5th Anniversary of the Camerosity Podcast / Introducing the returning callers, and a couple of new ones eBay is the de facto used camera marketplace, but Japan has their own auctions Stephen's GAS is extreme What are Buyee, From Japan, and ZenMarket? / What about Yahoo! Auctions Japan and Mercari Japan? Proxy services are above board and welcomed / Sometimes items are restricted, but you have other options Yahoo! auctions are a soft close, unlike eBay, and it affects sniping Coupons from the proxy services, and the tricks to using them Why junk can be near mint, and near mint can be junk What experiences have we all had with the condition of items? Mike spotted an issue with a Baldaxette through the photos that wasn't in the description NP's expired film-buying experience Lack of buyer protections and lack of contact with the seller compared to eBay Consolidated shipping is a huge plus Why you can end up paying for shipping twice, and options for tariffs Packaging can vary when you consolidate, and beware of batteries Deals can be had with items that are less desirable in different regions Camera models sold in Japan can have different names than in other countries Some items can be listed on both Yahoo! and eBay at the same time, and it's not always legit Fun with translations Anthony takes us to Europe with Catawiki, and compares notes with Ira Cohen Greg Harp and Ira share their big wins with mislisted items: a 1950 Canon and a Leica IIId The Arco 35 with View-Arco is becoming Mike's White Whale Superbuy is a proxy service for China Stephen goes over Inspection and insurance options on Buyee Greg got some cameras he didn't buy Paul's domestic Mercari misadventure with the Rolleiflex SL66 Sharing the GAS: A.J.

Donny Fandango set out with one goal: raise $53,000 for Ronald McDonald House Charities...and then proceeded to absolutely crush it. The crew recaps the incredible Radiothon, the huge donations, the emotional moments, and—because this is The Rizzuto Show—the bizarre auction prizes everyone agreed to while Rizz was unconscious after wisdom tooth surgery.Apparently getting anesthesia is basically giving your coworkers power of attorney.Rizz returns to discover he's now the proud future owner of a very...unique...piece of jewelry, Melissa bought herself two hours in studio, and Donny narrowly escaped getting one of the weirdest tattoos imaginable. Charity wins, dignity loses. Everybody's happy.Speaking of surgery, Rizz shares the surprisingly abrupt experience of getting knocked out for his wisdom tooth extraction. No dramatic countdown. No floating through space. Just "What are your hobbies?" and instant blackout. The gang compares anesthesia stories, post-surgery meals, and why hydrocodone apparently turns Rizz into a man convinced invisible bugs are crawling on him.Meanwhile, Moon continues adding to his collection of "Craigslist Could Have Been My Last Day On Earth" stories, while Lern makes her very first Facebook Marketplace purchase. What should have been a simple $35 weight bench somehow becomes an FBI-level covert operation involving porch pickups, Venmo timing, getaway driving, and apologizing to Ring doorbells.Then everyone gets hungry.The crew debates Korean BBQ versus Brazilian steakhouses, discusses the strategy of "beating the house" at all-you-can-eat restaurants, admits to suffering from the legendary meat sweats, and somehow turns dipping sauces into a competitive sport.As if things weren't chaotic enough, Yellowstone provides one of the wildest viral videos of the week when an agitated bison launches a grandfather several feet into the air after a campsite encounter. The crew breaks down exactly what happened, why wildlife deserves way more personal space than tourists seem willing to give it, and why surviving a bison toss wasn't even the only animal-related headline making news.They also dive into the Running of the Bulls, debate whether life insurance covers intentionally sprinting in front of enormous angry animals, and discover that some adventures may be better left to someone else's vacation photos.It's another morning full of ridiculous conversations, genuine laughs, questionable life decisions, and proof that no matter how carefully you plan your day, someone is probably about to get launched by wildlife.If you're looking for your next daily comedy podcast, welcome home.

Today I want to tell you how our goat market evolved from sale barn auctions to direct-to-consumer meat sales to something I stumbled into sort of by accident that turned out to be a much better fit for the goats we've been raising. There's a mental block I had to work through in there too, and I think a lot of producers run into the same one.

If you're taking the time, and spending the money to dine out, you want to know what you're getting. Susan Quam, executive vice president of the WI Restaurant Association says information is power - even for restaurant menus. Quam tells Pam Jahnke that today diners are looking for "clean labels" on menus. The "buy local" mantra continues, and restaurants are complying. Quam says heat and spice continue to be popular flavor profiles that attract shoppers, but there's other taste bud tempting options becoming popular in the state too. Comfort foods and value menus are a magnet, and Quam says "smash burger" are showing up with many different options. Rain is back on the way to Wisconsin with some strong winds to boot. Stu Muck says today you might actually feel a chill with winds that could gust up to 35 mph. This cycle of weather continues for about the next 48 hours. I bet you never thought of an auctioneer as a partner in your estate plan. It happens. Ashly Huhn explains to Pam Jahnke how the Steffes Group many times gets involved in Section 1031 exchanges. This helps land owners primarily avoid heavy taxes by finding other properties to invest in. Paid for by Steffes Group. Monday was the "Day of Service" for approximately 700 Wisconsin FFA members in Madison before the 97th State FFA Convention. Amanda Draxler, WI State FFA President, says that the hands on labor of those members, coupled with seeing the finished product gives them a real sense of accomplishment and giving back to their host community. Draxler says there were about 11 different targeted activities within Dane County that mobilized the members. From pulling weeds to building beds, it was an important staple for the convention attendees. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Have you ever picked up a piece of antique jewelry and wondered how it got there? Behind every brooch, ring, or sapphire in a boutique window is a network of specialists: historians, gemologists, goldsmiths, appraisers, lapidaries, and dealers, each playing a role in the journey from discovery to display case. In this episode, Matthew Weldon of Courtville Antiques breaks down the ecosystem of the antique jewelry trade, explaining who does what, how the roles connect, and what a typical week actually looks like across the industry. Whether you already work in the trade or are considering entering it, this episode offers a candid guide to the many career paths within antique jewelry. Drawing on his own background, from studying gemology at the GIA to running Courtville and working alongside his family's auction house, Matthew gives an honest picture of each role's rewards and risks. From spotting overlooked treasures to the tension of handing a six-carat Burma sapphire to a lapidary, the episode makes the case that there is a place in this business for many different skill sets. Key Takeaways • Antique jewelry passes through many hands before reaching a buyer, often involving researchers, gemologists, appraisers, goldsmiths, and dealers. • Gemologists identify and assess stones scientifically, while appraisers combine those findings with market data to produce legal valuations for insurance, probate, or resale. • Skilled lapidaries are increasingly rare, creating challenges for businesses dealing with valuable antique stones. • Auctions and private sales operate differently: auctions are strictly “as is,” while private dealers are bound by consumer protections and guarantees. • Content creation has become a legitimate route into the industry, with creators and journalists building careers around shows, auctions, and trade coverage. • Matthew's philosophy on consignment is simple: if you would not buy a piece yourself, you should not expect someone else to. Quotes “On average here in Courtville, I would say we would look at between three and four thousand pieces of jewelry a week... How many pieces do we buy? On average, I'd say we're buying one to two percent of the pieces that we'd see.” — 27:23 “If you lose a piece of antique jewelry, you might have to source lots of different antique stones... You'll also have to get a jeweller to hand make the piece.” — 8:38 “Never a more accurate phrase than measure twice, cut once.” — 22:54 Resources • GIA (Gemological Institute of America) • Gem-A, London • Wartsky's, London • Courtville Antiques — www.courtville.ie • Miami Beach Antique Show • Jewelry, Objects and Antique Show, New York • Galerie Apollon, The Louvre • The Smithsonian • The V&A • Musée des Arts Modernes, Paris • L'École Van Cleef & Arpels Socials & Contact Instagram: @gempursuitpod Instagram: @courtvilleantiques TikTok: @matthew.weldon Email: info@gempursuit.com Selected Timestamps (1:56) Why careers in antique jewelry matter (4:48) Gemologist (8:00) Types of valuation (14:19) Goldsmith and restoration (18:45) Lapidary and diamond cutter (26:50) Antique jewelry dealer (32:05) Auctions vs private market (40:50) Content creator and jewelry journalist (44:10) Museum and curatorial roles (45:16) Jewelry designer www.courtville.ie Get social with Courtville, follow us on Instagram, Facebook, and TikTok This podcast was produced for Courtville by Tape Deck

In this week's episode of the ArtTactic Podcast, host Adam Green is joined by Judd Tully, independent art journalist, to recap the major May New York auctions, where more than $2 billion worth of art was sold. While the headline numbers suggest renewed strength in the art market, Judd explains why the story is more nuanced, with the season defined by an extraordinary concentration of estates, major collections, and historically important works. Adam and Judd discuss how the sales performed overall, whether the results point to a broader market recovery or were driven by exceptional consignments, what the heavy use of guarantees reveals about confidence and risk, and what the mood of the market feels like as the art world turns to London and Art Basel.

Napier has been home to "open cry" wool auctions for 150 or so years, but last month it looked like the tradition was coming to an end.

This season's much anticipated auctions in New York have brought some records and eye-popping prices, including for works by Jackson Pollock, Constantin Brancusi and Mark Rothko, and some more middling results. Ben Luke talks to Judd Tully, who has been reporting on some of the sales for The Art Newspaper. The largest show of the art of James McNeill Whistler in Europe for more than 30 years has just opened at Tate Britain in London, and travels later in the year to the Netherlands, where it forms two shows, at the Van Gogh Museum in Amsterdam and The Mesdag Collection in The Hague. Ben takes a tour of the Tate show with its lead curator Carol Jacobi. And this episode's Work of the Week is the frieze made by Edvard Munch in 1922 for the women's canteen of the Freia Chocolate Factory in Oslo. The frieze remains in the collection of the Freia chocolate company today, but is on temporary loan to MUNCH, the museum in the Norwegian capital for the exhibition Edvard Munch and the Chocolate Factory. Our digital editor, Alexander Morrison, went to Oslo to speak to the curator of the exhibition, Ana María Bresciani, about the frieze.James McNeill Whistler, Tate Britain, London, until 27 September 2026; before splitting into two parallel presentations in the Netherlands, Whistler: Dandy and Disruptor, Van Gogh Museum, Amsterdam; Whistler: Loving The Netherlands, The Mesdag Collection, The Hague, both 16 October-10 January 2027.Edvard Munch and the Chocolate Factory, MUNCH, Oslo, until 11 October.

Today we're chatting with Rachel Koffsky Parker, Senior Vice President and International Head of Department for Handbags and Accessories at Christie's auction house — one of the most recognized voices in the global luxury handbag market and, an auctioneer herself, having taken handbag sales in New York, London, Geneva, and Hong Kong. After internships at the Met and the Walters Art Museum in Baltimore, Rachel found her way to Christie's in 2014, just as handbags were becoming a formalized auctionhouse category. Since, she has helped build the handbag category from the ground up, growing into what is now one of the most strategically important departments in the house — responsible for bringing in 12% of all new Christie's clients and selling in excess of forty million dollars in handbags worldwide last year alone. Over the last decade plus, she's brought the first single-owner handbag collections to market in both Milan and Paris, set world auction records for Hermès, Chanel, Louis Vuitton, and Gucci, and helped transform the way an entire generation of collectors thinks about handbags — not just as accessories, but as objects with history, rarity, provenance, and serious investment value. On today's episode, we get into all of it: how she built her expertise by cataloging up to a hundred bags a week, what actually drives value at auction, the record-breaking lots that still give her chills, and why a little wear and patina has gone from a liability to a badge of honor in the eyes of today's collectors. All that and more! Let's dive right in!
