Fresh off a thrilling finish at Royal Birkdale which saw him hoist the Claret Jug, Ryan Fox joins Smylie Kaufman and Charlie Hulme to relive his first major win at the 2026 Open Championship — only the fourth Kiwi to win a major, and the first to bring the Claret Jug home to New Zealand since Bob Charles in 1963. Fox walks through his major championship record-tying 62 on Saturday (and the improbable fairway bunker shot on 18 that capped it off), the driver decision on the 13th that swung his Sunday momentum, an incredible approach at 16, and the nerves he felt reading the winning birdie putt on 18.Plus: A brand new Srixon driver responsible for some of the most clutch shots he hit all week + the Z-STAR ball that gave him an edge over the rest of the field in the windy conditions, his dad Grant Fox's legendary All Blacks career and 1987 Rugby World Cup win, New Zealand's golf course boom, whether a PGA Tour event or Presidents Cup could ever land in New Zealand, and a detour into Fox's Bordeaux-heavy wine cellar.Before all that: the saga of getting the real and replica Claret Jugs through airport security and onto the flight home — including an awkward moment in line next to runner-up Cameron Young.Don't forget to like, comment, subscribe, and follow us on socials @thesmylieshow!Chapters0:00 Intro & Ryan Fox's dad, All Blacks legend Grant Fox2:39 Has life changed since becoming Champion Golfer of the Year?3:39 New Zealand's 4th major champion & ending a 63-year Claret Jug drought4:29 The Claret Jug's wild flight home9:19 Echoes of Hideki Matsuyama's Masters travels10:19 Friday's grind just to make the cut12:12 Saturday's record-tying 6213:14 The bunker shot and putt that closed out the 6218:29 The 13th hole driver gamble and riding the wave of momentum23:24 The approach at 16 and feeling the crowd's energy29:03 Composure and nerves on the 18th green32:45 The backstory on Ryan's putter34:42 No snakes in New Zealand???35:57 The 2014 Muriwai Open and New Zealand's links golf38:00 The 2021 Muriwai win with Steve Williams caddying39:48 Touring New Zealand's booming golf course scene42:50 Could the PGA Tour — or a Presidents Cup — come to New Zealand?46:25 Wine talk: Bordeaux, Hawke's Bay, and the Claret Jug48:23 Sign-off

The Devil's Ledger | Week of July 20, 2026 This week on The Devil's Ledger, we celebrate an unforgettable month of football, explore one of the eeriest true crime deceptions of the digital age, conclude a haunting summer novella, and revisit two of the most compelling criminal investigations we've covered this year. We begin by congratulating Spain on capturing its second FIFA World Cup title after a thrilling championship match, while tipping our hats to North America for hosting one of the greatest sporting events the world has ever seen. Then, in The Creepiest Thing I Heard This Week, Branden examines the chilling murder of Gretchen Anthony and one of the most disturbing realities of the digital age: how a killer continued communicating with friends and family using the victim's own phone after her death. In a world where our phones have become extensions of ourselves, what happens when someone else begins speaking in your voice? On The Devil Within, Campfire Files comes to its unforgettable conclusion with The House That Hadn't Been Emptied. An Arizona couple's peaceful vacation along the rocky coast of Maine ends with a locked room, a mysterious caretaker, and a suitcase that somehow knows exactly who it's waiting for. It's a quiet, literary ghost story about memory, history, and the unsettling possibility that some houses never truly let their guests leave. Over on Criminal Mischief, Carolyn Ossorio concludes her investigation into the Pike County Massacre, following investigators as they unravel one of the most shocking murder conspiracies in modern American history after nearly an entire family was executed in a single night. On The Slippery, Scott and Nancy revisit a case they've pursued for nearly a decade: the 2006 murder of Doris Worrell. Following a dramatic arrest in 2025, they examine new evidence surrounding an alleged murder-for-hire plot that may finally bring long-awaited answers. Finally, in This Week in Horror, we recommend The Bay, a tense open-water survival thriller that proves the ocean can still be one of the scariest places on Earth. Stay cool, stay hydrated, and stay alert. You never know what's waiting around the next corner... or beneath the surface. We'll see you this week across the Evio Creative Universe. In This Episode • ⚽ Congratulations to Spain on winning the 2026 FIFA World Cup. •

Hard to believe that it's been ten years since the release of Ghostbusters: Answer the Call. And, while this film has run the gamut of discourse for those last ten years, there are still things to be said about the film all this time later. Why was it such an important next step in the franchise, why did it have a thankless task of following in the footsteps in giants as result of it, and with the advantage of time and distance — what is one thing we now wish they would have done (and is the recent success of Katie Dippold's Widow's Bay a taste of an alternate universe's success)? All these things, plus some off-topic documentary chat and a whole lot of Troy complaining about how hot it is in this week's show!

Keeping up with your rent in San Francisco is not for the faint of heart. Online rental services were showing that the average monthly rent for a one bedroom home was more than four thousand dollars, and a two bedroom was averaging at five thousand seven hundred dollars. Housing is a perpetual topic here in the Bay Area and for decades, cities have largely gotten to decide what could be built and where you could build . But over the last few years, California has passed a number of laws trying to shift those decisions to the state.Today, a conversation about the laws that are now coming into effect this month. We hear from Sarah Dennis Phillips, SF Planning Director and David Garcia, Policy Director of the Terner Center for Housing Innovation at UC Berkeley. They spoke with State of the Bay host Grace Won.

Join me as I recap my unforgettable first trip to Hawaiʻi for Rudy's bachelor party. What started as a celebration for one of my closest friends turned into an incredible six-day adventure across Oʻahu filled with breathtaking scenery, amazing food, unforgettable experiences, and plenty of laughs.From jumping off Waimea Bay's famous rock despite my fear of heights, to getting stung by my first bee, standing in the middle of Kāneʻohe Bay's famous sandbar surrounded by sea turtles, exploring hidden local spots, and experiencing Waikīkī's nightlife, this trip had a little bit of everything. Along the way, I share travel tips, fun facts, memorable stories, and why having a local guide completely changed the experience.More than anything, this episode is about celebrating friendship. It's a reminder that as life gets busier, opportunities to bring close friends together become more meaningful than ever. We traveled to Hawaiʻi to celebrate Rudy before his wedding, but we all came home with memories that will last a lifetime.Mahalo, Oʻahu. I'll definitely be back.

State of the Bay sits down with Gretchen Carlson to learn about a new AI tool, explores whether California's new housing laws override local control, and visits the dog surfing world championships.

President Donald Trump blew up the temporary ceasefire after the U.S. launched a series of airstrikes against Iran over the weekend. The two nations have continued to exchange strikes throughout the week, with Iran targeting U.S. allies in the Middle East, as Congress debates further entangling the United States military with Israel — a proposal that would give Israel enormous leverage over U.S. defense policy.“This is a formula for a forever war,” national security reporter Spencer Ackerman tells The Intercept Briefing. A major champion of such forever wars was Sen. Lindsey Graham, who passed away over the weekend. “Lindsey Graham never met a war he didn't like, never met a war he didn't want to send other people's children to wage,” says Ackerman, who writes the Substack Forever Wars. “The white whale for Lindsey Graham and many others in the bridge between neoconservatism and MAGA was Iran — assaulting Iran not only at home, but rolling back its regional challenge to U.S. and Israeli power in the Middle East.”“Whatever else MAGA says about wars,” says Ackerman, “what it wants is domination. It wants domination not only at home, but abroad. That's where Graham recognized — that instead of being someone like John McCain, who sought to occasionally butt against, fight against Donald Trump — that Graham could help maneuver Trump into being a vehicle for their shared project. And he did that with really tremendous success.”“You are seeing a more rent-seeking U.S. empire than ever before as a defining characteristic … of the Trump-era empire,” says Ackerman, on the administration's thirst to turn countries in its orbit, like Venezuela, into “vassal that pay tribute.” “This is the sort of thing that an empire in decline does. Rather than figuring out new strategies to growth, it redistributes wealth from its own people to its driving oligarchic sectors.”Ackerman has reported from Iraq, Afghanistan, Guantánamo Bay, and many U.S. bases. He currently writes for Zeteo and Forever Wars, where you can sign up for his newsletter. Politics reporter Akela Lacy also drops in to discuss how the turmoil at home and abroad is impacting the midterms. After Democratic Senate candidate Graham Platner dropped out of the race, Lacy says, “Maine Democrats are in a situation where they're all trying to become the nominee that the party picks to replace Platner on the ballot to go against Collins in November. Many of those candidates have now come out and called to abolish ICE outright after the shooting in Maine.”Keep our investigations free and fearless at theintercept.com/join.

Christmas Treasures: The Greatest Treasure is in the Heart by Bruce J Spohn https://www.amazon.com/Christmas-Treasures-Greatest-Treasure-Heart/dp/1470119919 Collection of short stories about Christmas. For any age group that can read from 10 to 100 About the author Bruce Spohn was born March 5th, 1947 in Lancaster, CA near Los Angeles. His parents moved north to the Bay Area and he attended K – 12 in several schools in different cities around the Bay. This laid the foundation of his outlook on life. After graduating from Clayton Valley High School in Concord California he joined the U. S. Air force. After basic training in Lackland AFB in San Antonio TX, he was sent to Germany in Oct 1965. Life in Europe appealed to him and he stayed in Germany for 40 years and finally returned to the United States in Feb 2006. Luckily, he was sent back to San Antonio TX where he works for the Government at Fort Sam Houston. Bruce started writing when he was still in high school but never published. In Nov 1999 he was involved in a near-fatal car accident and woke up in the ICU a few days before Christmas. He felt inspired to write a story to send to his friends as a special Christmas gift. His love of writing has spurred him on the expand his story tellin to include romance/drama. “Lovers by the Lake is a romance between two “Baby Boomers” and how their lives were shaped by the events of the time. Bruce is now working on a series. “Dark Dig” and “Convalited Conswcidences” are the first in that series.

Cole puts his law degree to work, using the law to defeat his former sisters-in-law; P3 can't pass a health inspection, and Paige is jailed for vehicular murder. Cole's perversion of the law and the health risk are another attempt to reunite with his obsession, Phoebe Halliwell. Sadly, misogyny and true crime PTSD are not enough to get the girls to give the episode a bad rating.The girls tackle the literacy crisis during the pop culture R.E.P.O.R.T From murder mysteries to Norse mythology, the girls have you covered with Tom Mead's The Murder Wheel and Danielle L Jensen's A Fate Inked in Blood. They also continue their Matthew Rhys obsession as Nelle finally finishes Widow's Bay and Rae finishes The Beast in Me on Netflix. Rae gets into NBA rivalries with Untold: Shooting Guards.Before Nelle & Rae bind this spell (read episode), they get “Messages from The Seer” in a new segment. The Charmed Ones always asked the know-nothing Elders for help solving their magical dilemmas. So Nelle does what they should have done and asks the cards how Phoebe should have handled Cole and how Piper should have dealt with the health inspector.Witches, press play and join the girls as they talk pop culture and break down Halliwell hijinks in the latest episode of "Black Girl Charmed" — A Charmed Rewatch Podcast.Subscribe and join the fandom now!

The Americans are very proud of their written constitution. During the first 3/8 of President Trump's second term of office, the constitution has been severely tested. Where has the Constitution succeeded in providing legal safeguards, clarity and stability, and where has it failed? How will the remainder of this presidency look? And what is coming after Trump? This lecture was recorded by Clive Stafford Smith on the 4th of June 2026Clive Stafford Smith JD OBE is a dual UK-US national, the founder and director of the Justice League a non-profit human rights training centre focused on fostering the next generation of advocates. He was the Senior Prefect at Radley College, where he studied maths and science; then a Morehead Scholar at the University of North Carolina (Chapel Hill), where he took a degree in Politics; and a Stone Merit Scholar each of his three years at Columbia Law School, graduating in 1984. He previously founded and directed the legal action charities Louisiana Capital Assistance Center (1993 in New Orleans) and Reprieve (1999 in London). Since 1984 he has tried many capital cases, and helped to represent over 400 people facing execution in the US and elsewhere. He also brought the first challenge to Guantánamo Bay, where he has secured the release of 87 detainees, and continues to assist the remaining 15.  In all five of the cases he has helped bring to the U.S. Supreme Court the petitioner has prevailed. He has recently taken on the case of Aafia Siddiqui, the woman who has most suffered from the US rendition-to-torture program – abducted with her three children. He continues to work on capital cases in the US, including a Post-Mortem Project where he is investigating the claims of innocence of 184 people executed since 1977.Clive has published a number of books including Bad Men (2008, describing work in Guantánamo) and Injustice (2012, on the capital case of Kris Maharaj), both of which were short-listed for the Orwell Prize; and most recently The Far Side of the Moon (2023), deconstructing the parallel lives of his father and a client Larry Lonchar, both of whom were labelled Bipolar. He has many other publications, including manuals for the defence of capital cases, and law review articles about aspects of capital defence. He has worked on many films and documentaries, starting with Fourteen Days In May (1987), recently ranked as one of the top BBC documentaries of all time. While continuing his litigation practice, Clive teaches part time at Bristol Law School as well as running a summer programme for 35 students in Dorset, his home. He has received all kinds of awards in recognition of his work, including an OBE by Queen Elizabeth II for “services to humanity” in 2000. He has been a member of the Louisiana State Bar since 1984. The transcript of the lecture is available from the Gresham College website: https://www.gresham.ac.uk/watch-now/current-challenges-us-constitutionGresham College has offered free public lectures for over 400 years, thanks to the generosity of our supporters.

Pop in with us this week as we cover this year's Emmy nominations! From Widow's Bay to Hacks, we're talking our biggest surprises, snubs, and predictions (7:28). We're also recapping this season of Love Island (29:30) and discussing Jack Antonoff and Margaret Qualley's separation (51:12). We're also reviewing Rivals part 1 of season 2 (58:44). We also discuss Armie Hammer returning to acting with his controversial new movie Citizen Vigilante (1:06:31). Don't forget to follow us on Instagram and TikTok at @poppininpodcast!

Nominations for the 78th Primetime Emmy Awards delivered both expected and unexpected results. “The Pitt” led the way with 25 nominations, with “Hacks” one behind at 24. Shows like “Widow’s Bay” (19), “Pluribus” (18), “Beef” (16) and “DTF St. Louis” (13) were among other big winners. But popular shows like “The Bear” (8 nominations), often criticized for entering comedy categories, and “Stranger Things” (7 nominations in technical categories), were left out of most of the big categories. In this episode, co-hosts Bruce Miller and Terry Lipshetz discuss the nominations that were released earlier in the month. The awards ceremony will be held on Sept. 14 at the Peacock Theater in Los Angeles. The hosts also chat about some new programming, like the Netflix adaptation of “Little House on the Prairie” and the latest “Big Bang Theory” spinoff: “Stuart Fails to Save the Universe.” And "House of the Dragon" is back, with its third season perhaps its best so far. About the show Streamed & Screened is a podcast about movies and TV hosted by Bruce Miller, a longtime entertainment reporter who is the retired editor of the Sioux City Journal in Iowa and Terry Lipshetz, managing editor of the National Newsroom for Lee Enterprises based in Madison, Wisconsin. The show was named Best Podcast in the 2025 Iowa Better Newspaper Contest. Theme music Thunder City by Lunareh, used under license from Soundstripe. YouTube clearance: FV694ULMCJQDG0IY

It felt like a friendship test. Jenn received a text from Jesse that told her she needed to watch Widow's Bay. Like NOW. Jenn explained that she didn't have Apple TV and it had been a crappy day. She wanted to pour ten fingers worth of Japanese whiskey and disappear behind a screen of true crime.But Jesse persisted. Jenn. Jenn. Jenn. Jenn. You will love it. This show is a mix of spooky and funny. Trust me.Five minutes later Jenn had Apple TV loaded on the Roku and had opened the series page for this Emmy-nominated mega-hit. She went to the fridge and found this and that, making nachos out of leftovers, then poured a glass of red wine, because that's what you drink with horror in the Riley family.She pressed play, then immediately had to pause it to read Jesse's text, “Jenn. You better do this. I am gonna post about it on Substack. Don't leave me hangin'.”Jenn sent a photo back of the nachos and wine, Cooper begging for her food, and in the background it was clear Episode One was queued up.The conversation in this mini-bonus-thingie is Jesse FINALLY getting Jenn's opinion on the show. He couldn't rest until he knew her initial impressions. Send us Fan MailIf you are searching for a fresh, binge-able podcast, this might be the one for you!Support the showSupport Curious Cat, an independent, human-made podcast!***Curious Cat Podcast on Substack!***Buy Curious Cat Podcast a Coffee!

Mayor Tom Loftis wants to turn his struggling, New England island town into a thriving tourist attraction. But some residents believe Widow's Bay is cursed, and his efforts to boost it are stirring up its otherworldly forces. Tom is thwarted by his staff's bumbling ineptitude and a series of supernatural encounters that shake his confidence. As the skeptical mayor slowly becomes a believer, he works to break the curse in which any island-born natives die if they leave for the mainland. Emmy nominees Matthew Rhys, Kate O'Flynn, and Stephen Root star in the surprise hit Apple TV series “Widow's Bay.” The show is a balance of absurdist office comedy and part Stephen King novel. Can a misfit group of heroes decipher why their island community is haunted, protect its inhabitants, and reverse the fate of its native-born residents — including Tom's son? OUR SPOILER-FREE REVIEWS OF "WIDOW'S BAY" BEGIN IN THE FINAL 11 MINUTES OF THE EPISODE. In Crime of the Week: definitely not fooling anyone.  For exclusive podcasts and more, sign up at Patreon.Sign up for our newsletter at crimewriterson.com.This show was recorded in The Caitlin Rogers Project Studio.

Are you actually creating opportunity, or are you waiting for someone to hand it to you? A lot of people talk about being entrepreneurs, but very few are willing to do the unsexy part: get on the plane, sit in the waiting room, build the relationship, ask the better question, and stay in the deal long enough to find the angle everyone else missed. Richard Baker built his career by doing exactly that. He did not rely on perfect timing, endless capital, or permission from people at the top. He used structure, relationships, leverage, and speed to turn overlooked opportunities into billion-dollar deals. This matters because the future of work is changing fast. AI is reshaping business, companies are cutting jobs, and more people are going to have to learn how to create value on their own. Richard's philosophy is simple: stop chasing safety, start thinking like an owner, and learn how to manufacture your own luck. The people who win are the ones who know where the ball is going before everyone else starts running after it. Richard Baker is a real estate entrepreneur, dealmaker, founder of Baker House 1921, and longtime educator through Cornell's Baker Program in Real Estate. He has built one of the largest privately owned shopping center portfolios in the country, developed 50 Walmart-anchored shopping centers, bought iconic retail brands including Lord & Taylor, Saks Fifth Avenue, Hudson's Bay, and Neiman Marcus, and structured some of the most fascinating retail and real estate deals of the last two decades. In this episode, he breaks down negotiation, risk, AI, entrepreneurship, decision-making, and why the biggest opportunities often come from seeing what everyone else is too busy to notice. What's Discussed: (01:27) How Richard Baker built one of the largest privately owned shopping center portfolios in the country. (07:37) The family philosophy that taught him how to make money with no money. (11:13) What intellectual leverage means and why he uses brains, relationships, and structure instead of cash. (12:15) Why real opportunity comes from getting off your ass and showing up in person. (19:23) How the power of yes helped him buy Lord & Taylor for $1.2 billion. (23:34) Why big companies miss details and how that creates openings for entrepreneurs. (29:21) Why speed, risk tolerance, and fast decision-making matter in business. (39:17) How he turned the Zellers deal into a bidding war between Walmart and Target. (52:40) The difference between a zoo bear and a jungle bear in entrepreneurship. (01:02:39) Why luck is something you manufacture through preparation, strategy, and timing. (01:07:21) How Richard uses AI every morning to think, plan, and increase productivity. (01:31:38) Why courage, pulling the trigger, and structuring risk are essential for entrepreneurs.   Thank You to Our Sponsors!
