In this episode, Steph discusses the importance of finding clarity in how we want to feel in our lives. She emphasizes that many people struggle to articulate their desired feelings and often get lost in the pursuit of achievements, leading to a sense of lack. Through the parable of the fisherman and the banker, she illustrates the concept of 'enough' and encourages listeners to recognize that feelings of peace, joy, and freedom can be accessed now, rather than waiting for future achievements. The episode concludes with a challenge to live boldly and choose to feel the desired emotions in the present moment.Chapters00:00 Introduction to Feelings and Clarity05:08 The Pursuit of Goals and Achievements10:13 The Parable of the Fisherman14:43 Choosing to Feel Now

I spoke with Anonymous Banker, an M&A advisor with a front-row view into the market for buying and selling digital media companies. Needless to say, it's a buyer's market.AB breaks down the market for digital publishing assets – broadly those with page-based models – into three types of buyers:HarvestersCAC jockeysVanity projects/rich person playthings“If you're a publisher with a mostly ad-supported site, odds are your business will be worth less next year than it is now,” he said. Deals are still getting done, but the buyers are different. These are no-name PE firms above ice cream shops in the outskirts of Miami. We go through the list, which ranges from Valnet to Static Media to Savage Ventures to Regent. The playbook is to buy undervalued media properties, slash costs, and milk the programmatic revenue with hyper-lean models that rudely dispense with the nostalgia of “when the going was good.”“Any content they invest in has to be ROI positive within 30 days,” AB said. “You'll never see them spend $20 million hoping advertisers show up. Those days are done.”Other topics we covered:How AI uncertainty is creating overhang that depresses valuations and makes long-term modeling nearly impossibleWhy the most resilient media businesses are lead-generation machines or conversion front-endsWe debate whether the Chernin Group content-to-commerce thesis was wrongHow Substack's recommendation engine is the most efficient user acquisition channel in mediaWhat kinds of content investors still believe in (hint: high-intent verticals, not general news)Check out The Rebooting's new media product research reportSign up for The Rebooting's Online Forum on May 21 at 1pmET featuring a case study on how Recurrent migrated its CMS across a portfolio of sites without disruption

• RFK Jr. & Chemtrails: RFK Jr.'s chemtrail pledge dismissed as gaslighting. Cites studies (10% fully believe, 20-30% partially), RFK Jr. suspects DARPA. Realize, there are real geoengineering projects and Monsanto has aluminum-based soil seed patents. • Inhaled mRNA Vaccines: Canadian "Aerovax" could vaccinate populations without consent via atmospheric spraying, just evil • Noahide Laws & Trump: Trump's Pope-like portrayal and Alcatraz reopening consideration smell of Noahide law enforcement. • Political Theater: Politics is scripted to divide; Biden and Trump push AI-driven "beast system." • Economic Hardship: 30-54% of Americans live paycheck to paycheck; Gen Z struggles rise to 69% by 2025. Trump is doing the will of the Bankers to control you. • Pulitzer Photo: Pulitzer-winning Trump bullet photo by Doug Mills (also 9/11 Bush photographer) is so suspect. Do you have eyes to see? • AI & Israel / USA Inc: Meta's AI staff linked to Israel's IDF Ai Experts. Jerusalem seen as the Women of Revelation that sits on seven hills, is called the Great City that crucified Christ called Sodom and Egypt. With USA inc, Isreal is building the "beast system" that will enforce Noahide laws. Underground Bases: A New York Post article cites Catherine Austin Fitts claiming the US built a $21 trillion underground city and 170 bunkers since 1998 for elites to survive a near-extinction event. The host questions if common people might be included for genetic diversity or servitude, linking it to biblical prophecies of elites hiding from God's judgment. Scripture: Matthew 24:29 describes cosmic upheaval post-tribulation, with darkened skies and falling stars. Isaiah 2:19-21 and Revelation 6:16 depict people hiding in caves and rocks from God's wrath, with Isaiah noting they'll abandon idols and Revelation showing them begging rocks to fall on them during the earth's shaking, suggesting futility of such bunkers.

Greg Olear talks to Nicolo Majnoni about his new podcast, 'Shadow Kingdom, God's Banker,' which delves into the mysterious death of banker Roberto Calvi and the intricate financial systems of the Vatican. Majnoni shares his personal connection to the Vatican, the complexities of its banking operations, the historical context of its wealth, and the shadowy organization P2, as well as the future challenges facing the papacy amidst financial chaos. They discuss the connections between organized crime and the Vatican, culminating in the mysterious disappearance of Calvi's briefcase, which held secrets that could have changed the course of history.ABOUT SHADOW KINGDOMRoberto Calvi, a man guarding a dangerous secret about the Vatican Bank's criminal activities, sends a threatening letter to the Pope. A week later on June 17th, 1982 he's found dead hanging from a bridge in London. British police call it suicide, but questions and conspiracies swirl. Forty years on, lawyer Nicolo Majnoni gets a tip there might be more to the story and embarks on a quest to uncover the truth. Was Roberto Calvi, aka God's Banker, killed?

Preview: Colleague Charles Burton in Toronto Comments on the Election of Central Banker Mark Carney to the Premiership. Mor1920 NWT

Canada's new Liberal Prime Minister Mark Carney is a center-right banker, not a real alternative to Donald Trump's right-wing agenda. They both serve the interests of rich elites and large corporations. Political economist Radhika Desai analyzes Canada's 2025 election results with journalist and lawyer Dimitri Lascaris.

More than any other single institution, the US Federal Reserve drives global capital markets with its decisions and communications. While its interest rates are set by a committee, for almost a century, the Fed's philosophy and operational approach have been moulded by one person: the Chair of the Board of Governors. In the first series of The Chair, Tim Gwynn Jones talked to authors of books about the Fed's foundational Chairs – Marriner Eccles, Bill Martin, Arthur Burns, and Paul Volcker. In this second series, he covers the people who chaired the Fed through the post-1990 period of financialisation, globalisation, and – perhaps today – deglobalisation. The first episode of the second series explores Alan Greenspan, the chairman who followed Paul Volcker and ran the Fed from 1987 until 2006. Once bestowed with “Maestro” status, Greenspan – who turns 100 in March 2026 – has seen his reputation deflate in the wake of the post-2008 financial crisis. To discuss the fallen Maestro, Tim is joined by Sebastian Mallaby, author of The Man Who Knew: The Life and Times of Alan Greenspan (Bloomsbury, 2016). “Greenspan was the man who knew,” says Mallaby. “He was the man who knew that bubbles were extremely destructive, and yet he was not the man who acted against those bubbles. So, whilst he was great on inflation and on stabilising the price of eggs, he was not good on asset-price inflation or stabilising the price of nest eggs”. A former journalist at The Economist and the Washington Post, Mallaby is the prize-winning author of The World's Banker – a portrait of the World Bank under James Wolfensohn – and More Money Than God: Hedge Funds and the Making of a New Elite. He is now the Paul A. Volcker senior fellow for international economics at the Council on Foreign Relations. Learn more about your ad choices.

The National Hunt season ends in style — and we're all over it. Emmet Kennedy is joined by Adam Mills and George Gorman to preview a blockbuster final day at Sandown, where Willie Mullins and Dan Skelton go head-to-head for the British Trainers' Championship in a finale packed with drama, storylines… and betting angles. We've got a 10/1 NAP in the opener, a select hurdle standout at 13/2, and a 6/1 play in the Celebration Chase that Adam and Emmet are bullish on — but it's a 20/1 shot that George and Adam love (and Emmet just can't believe they fancy). And in the big one — the Bet365 Gold Cup — all three lock horns for a proper tricast shootout, including bold each-way darts at 20/1 and 33/1. Expect sharp takes, passionate debate, and big-priced plays to end the jumps season with a bang.

Calvi is found hanging from Blackfriars Bridge in London. The British police call it suicide, but Nicolo finds Antonio Cornacchia, an Italian officer who insists it's murder. Years later, new forensic evidence reopens the case, leading to a trial with Silvano Vittor among the accused.

From Banker to Thief: Russell Laffitte Finally Admits to Murdaugh Scheme The Banker Finally Blinks After two years of pretending he just didn't know any better, former Palmetto State Bank CEO Russell Laffitte has finally admitted what everyone else already knew: he's a crook. In a guilty plea deal made public this week, Laffitte confessed to six criminal counts, copping to a scheme with Alex Murdaugh that laundered and stole at least $3.5 million from vulnerable clients over an 11-year stretch. That's more than a decade of playing dumb while using his bank like a personal vending machine for fraud. But unlike previous courtroom performances, Laffitte now admits he wasn't just “naive” or “misled.” He knew exactly what he was doing—and it was illegal. This is a major shift from the story Laffitte has been trying to sell since the walls started closing in. Back in his 2022 trial, the man spent five hours on the stand denying everything but bad judgment. He painted himself as the village idiot of banking, manipulated by Murdaugh into funneling millions out of client settlements without understanding what was going on. He even pulled the classic “not intentionally” line when asked if he'd helped Murdaugh steal. But now, in black and white, Laffitte is admitting he did help. Intentionally. Repeatedly. And he knew it was against the law. This admission changes everything—especially for the people he hurt. It also spares them from enduring a second trial that would've rehashed painful memories and exposed them to more cross-examinations from Laffitte's legal team. Instead of dragging them through that again, Laffitte gets five years. It's a cut from the seven-year sentence he was serving before his conviction was overturned on a technicality. And it's a far cry from the nine to eleven years prosecutors were originally gunning for in their 2023 sentencing memo. That memo was brutal. Prosecutors said what made Laffitte stand out wasn't just the crimes—plenty of people commit bank fraud—it was the audacity to lie about it over and over. They detailed how Laffitte had spun tales in a civil deposition, during a disciplinary review, at his bond hearing, and at trial. And even after a jury found him guilty, he still tried to appeal, blaming everyone but himself. But now, thanks to this plea deal, there will be no retrial, no appeals, and no last-ditch arguments about ineffective legal counsel. Laffitte has waived all of it. It's a legal dead-end for him and a sigh of relief for prosecutors and victims alike. And let's talk about the company he kept. Laffitte wasn't pulling these moves with some faceless fraudster—he was in business with Alex Murdaugh, arguably South Carolina's most radioactive defendant. By the time Laffitte's case came up for a retrial, Murdaugh was already a convicted murderer and convicted thief. The idea of facing a jury while being tied at the hip to that guy? Not a good look. In the background of all this are the stories of the people they stole from. The Plyler sisters, Hannah and Alania, had their settlement money drained. Natarsha Thomas lost $350,000. Arthur Badger, left to raise six children after his wife's death in a crash, had over a million siphoned from his rightful settlement. Laffitte helped reroute that money through his bank into accounts he and Murdaugh controlled, like some twisted game of Monopoly where the victims always lost and the banker pocketed Boardwalk. Emails between Laffitte and Murdaugh discussing Badger's money were described by attorney Mark Tinsley as especially damning. Which is why, Tinsley says, this guilty plea isn't a surprise—it's damage control. For the victims and their attorneys, this deal is about more than just prison time. It's closure. It's avoiding another public trial. And most importantly, it's proof in writing that Laffitte wasn't just a clueless banker caught in the crossfire—he was an active, informed participant in a massive fraud. Now, even as he faces civil lawsuits where he continues to deny responsibility, his federal guilty plea will hang around his neck like a cement necktie. Because no matter how many depositions he gives, the ink on that 10-page agreement doesn't lie. Russell Laffitte may have spent years denying, deflecting, and dodging the truth. But this week, he finally ran out of exits. #AlexMurdaugh #RussellLaffitte #PalmettoStateBank #WhiteCollarCrime Want to listen to ALL our podcasts AD-FREE?
