The crew debates whether Todd Monken will name Deshaun Watson the starter despite his rough preseason performance, and whether that decision would be a slap in the face to Browns fans or just Monken doing what he thinks is best for the locker room. A caller from Bedford pushes back hard, arguing that starting Watson would tank Monken's credibility and confirm the organization never really wanted Shedeur Sanders in the first place. The hosts agree that if they owned the team they'd start Shedeur, but debate whether Monken picking Watson is really about appeasing the locker room rather than spiting the fanbase.

"First Men in the Moon" by H.G. Wells takes listeners on an extraordinary journey as Mr. Bedford recounts his adventure with the eccentric inventor Mr. Cavor, who devises an antigravity coating to reach the Moon. Their expedition reveals a fantastical world filled with air, water, and an advanced civilization of insect-like beings known as Selenites. This thrilling tale explores themes of discovery, the consequences of technological advancement, and the complexities of human interaction with other civilizations. Its enduring relevance lies in the cautionary message about the impact of knowledge and communication, reminding us of the delicate balance between exploration and understanding in our own world.

Value investing spent fifteen years out of fashion. This year, it's beating the index almost everywhere you look — energy up roughly 20%, industrials 17%, healthcare 15%, utilities 14%, financials 12% — while the S&P 500 sits near 8–9%. This week we dig into the return of value investing and what the greatest investors of all time can teach us right now. On this week's Money On Tap, we go deep on the tradition that runs from Benjamin Graham through Warren Buffett and Charlie Munger: buying good businesses at sensible prices, collecting the dividends they pay you, and letting compounding do the heavy lifting. We explain why value went dark from roughly 2009 to 2025 — cheap money was rocket fuel for growth stocks — and why higher interest rates have flipped the script: growth borrows, value pays you. We connect the rotation to worn-out tech traders taking gains, the 401(k) flywheel, and the demographic engine underneath it all — roughly 10,000 baby boomers reaching retirement age every day, all needing present-day income. Plus Pepsi's 53-year dividend streak and a candid conversation about when mutual funds and ETFs stop making sense and direct stock ownership starts. What you'll learn:The sector scoreboard: energy ~20%, industrials ~17%, healthcare ~15%, utilities ~14%, financials ~12%, staples ~9% — vs. the S&P 500 near 8–9%Graham vs. Buffett: buy cheap and sell at fair value, or buy outstanding businesses and hold for decadesMunger's rule: "The big money is not in the buying or the selling, but in the waiting"Why low interest rates buried value for fifteen years — and why higher rates brought it backMargin of safety: the idea that protects you when you're wrongWhy money is rotating into companies that pay you to own them — dividends over promisesThe demographic engine: 10,000 boomers a day retiring and the demand for present-day incomeThe compounding story: Buffett's American Express dividends now exceed his entire original investment — every yearWhen funds stop making sense: the case for direct stock ownership at higher net worthPlus Money In The News:SpaceX says it's coming for AT&T, Verizon, and T-Mobile customers — but does satellite cell service actually work?The Treasury has refunded $100 billion in invalidated tariff revenue to companies — and none of it is coming back to youA tale of two housing markets: luxury demand surges while starter-home buyers finally see inventoryWant a white paper on this week's topic?

It struggled while near-zero interest rates favored growth stocks, but higher rates flipped the equation: in 2026, value sectors like energy (~20%), industrials (~17%), and healthcare (~15%) are outpacing the S&P 500's roughly 8–9%. The appeal is simple — instead of borrowing to chase growth, these companies pay shareholders real income today, and reinvested dividends compound over decades.

Nicole O'Byrne speaks with Keith Mercer about his book, Rough Justice: Policing, Crime, and the Origins of the Newfoundland Constabulary, 1729–1871. In Rough Justice, Keith Mercer examines the history of policing and crime in early Newfoundland. It focuses on the period between the appointment of the first constables on the island in 1729 to the establishment of the Newfoundland Constabulary in 1871, now known as the Royal Newfoundland Constabulary. This makes the Constabulary the oldest continuous police service in Canada. These early policemen, mostly untrained amateurs, were officers of the court, but they also played important roles in some of the most notable historical events and social crises of the eighteenth and nineteenth centuries. The establishment of the Constabulary in 1871 built upon that strong foundation of community service. Rough Justice weaves that narrative into the larger history of Newfoundland. Keith Mercer was born in Gander and holds graduate degrees in history from Memorial and Dalhousie Universities. He works for Parks Canada as the Cultural Resource Manager in Mainland Nova Scotia. He lives in Bedford, Nova Scotia, with his wife, Amy, and children, Abby and Sam. If you like our work, please consider supporting it: bit.ly/support_WTY.

There has been a lot of buzz around the upcoming Universal Project currently in development in Bedfordshire. It's estimated to generate around £50 billion in economic benefit, along with the creation of 20,000 jobs during its construction, and a further 8,000 jobs once it's operational. It's undoubtedly brought a lot of eyes towards the smallest county in the UK, and with it a lot of opportunity for local businesses to get involved with not only the main theme park itself, but the surrounding projects that aim to make Bedford and beyond a thriving tourist destination. For those wondering how to get involved, there is a dedicated group looking to share knowledge and tools to get you tender ready. In this episode, we are joined by Lorna Leonard, Managing Director of LBS, and Kirsty Maynard, Commercial Director of THSP, who are instrumental in running BedX, a group dedicated to sharing knowledge and tools to help businesses get tender ready for Universal and beyond. Listen to our roundtable discussion as we dive into why BedX was created, its main drivers, how it can support local businesses and how you can get involved. You'll learn ·      Who are Kirsty and Lorna? ·      What is BedX? ·      What were the main drivers behind the creation of BedX? ·      What are the group's main aims? ·      What are Kirsty and Lorna's roles within the group? ·      How can businesses get involved with and benefit from BedX? ·      What can businesses be doing now to get tender ready for Universal?     Resources ·      Bedfordshire Chamber of Commerce - BedX ·      BedX Webinars ·      Tender Diagnostic ·      Kirsty Maynard LinkedIn ·      Lorna Leonard LinkedIn   In this episode, we talk about: [02:25] Episode Summary – Stephanie Churchman and Carly Mowbray are joined by Lorna Leonard (LBSv) and Kirsty Maynard (THSP) to discuss the creation of BedX, and how it aims to support businesses with tender preparation ahead of the Universal and related projects currently underway in Bedfordshire.   [01:25] Who are Kirsty and Lorna?: Kirsty is the commercial director at THSP. THSP work with businesses across health and safety, HR and compliance, helping organizations make sure they've got the right systems, processes and people in place to operate safely, professionally and compliantly. THSP have been in operation since 1992 and support any type of organisation, from construction to food brands, global luxury retailers, major transport organizations, and complex international businesses operating in highly controlled environments. Lorna is the managing director of LBS. LBS is a business solutions company supporting sophisticated start-ups and growing corporations with outsourced finance department services, direction and solutions. She set-up the business 14 years ago, and has worked with organisations of all sizes, from blue chip companies to micro businesses of only 1 or 2 people. Regular listeners may recall Lorna from a previous episode, she also shares many insightful posts on LinkedIn and is certainly worth a follow! [07:05] What is BedX? It's A business-led working group powered by the Bedfordshire Chamber of Commerce. It was created to help Bedfordshire businesses understand, prepare for and win work from the major investments coming into the region, in particular, the universal destinations and experiences, the Luton Airport expansion and other on-going linked projects. BedX's role is to connect, inform and prepare, but they don't lobby, they don't represent the developers and they don't do politics. They are simply there to help local businesses get ready. [07:45] What were the main drivers behind the creation of BedX? The Universal park is certainly the banner piece for the group. It's what all the big numbers are attached to, including 5 billion pounds worth of inward economic investment, 20,000 jobs created and the five years' worth of construction. However, that is just one part of the upcoming development going on in Bedfordshire. The big project is seeing more funding going into the area to support transport networks and other venues as investors seek to make Bedfordshire a place worth staying for more than just the Universal Park. Other projects include the expansion of the Wixams Train Station, construction at the Luton Hoo, the new Luton Town Football Club and a new Data Centre at Quest Pit. BedX was created in response to all of these projects, not just Universal. It's to help local businesses navigate these opportunities, as this small county has rarely seen such a seismic shift in the amount of investment going into the area. Even though the deadline for Universal Park is 5 years away, supply chains are looking for support now, which is why it's better to start preparing sooner rather than later. [10:20] Making Bedfordshire a play to stay: It's also not just about the venues, to prepare for the influx of tourists there will be more investment in housing and transport and related routes such as the work currently going on at the Black Cat roundabout. Kirsty states that the Bedford County Council have a scrutiny committee, which is currently labelled as the Universal Scrutiny Committee, and are in discussion about a viable tourist strategy for Bedfordshire. So, there is no doubt that there will be many more small projects going ahead within a very short timeframe to get the area ready. [12:00] How LBS's expertise is instrumental within BedX: Businesses that want to get involved may not know how to get working capital or access potential available funding, which is where Lorna's and LBS's expertise comes in to support BedX's aims. With tenders as highly valued as this, it can throw businesses through a loop if they're not prepared. Lorna shares a story where she explains that she used to work for a company that made point of purchase display equipment, this company had a US subsidiary called Anshauser-Busch, who own Budweiser. That subsidiary put through an order directly through to their factory, requesting a huge order be manufactured and delivered within 180 days. The cost of which was upwards of $2.7 million, which was due to suppliers 150 days prior to Lorna's company at the time being paid. It was their first time working with that subsidiary, so there was no guarantee on payment. The lessons they learned ended up shaping how the company operated going forward. All this to say, if you're bidding for high value contracts, you need to think about the opportunity from every perspective. [14:40] Be realistic about what you bid for: Kirsty states she is really passionate about ensuring businesses are trying to grow responsibly, so that they understand those terms in the bid and that they're realistic about the size of contract that they should be bidding for. If you're looking for more guidance in this area, Katie from Bids and Tender Support provided a webinar on this topic for BedX. It's available to view on-demand on BedX's website. [16:25] Lorna's role within BedX: Lorna reminds us that a lot of the Tier 1 contractors started out as 1 or 2 person businesses. She states that, honestly, 90% of the companies that BedX help will not be in direct contact with one of those Tier 1 contractors. However, supply chains are just that, a chain, there are many opportunities to get involved further down the line. Lorna feels as if that's a large part of her role, keeping businesses focused on the opportunities they can access within that supply chain. She is also keen to help all the local businesses understand how this is going to affect them, because whether they get involved in the various projects being built or not, the whole area is going to be affected regardless. She points out an example where they needed to source a large number of electricians, and it turns out that Bedfordshire simply doesn't have enough! So BedX is helping to make the wider community aware of training opportunities like this that can open doors for local businesses. [18:45] Other considerations for businesses operating in Bedfordshire: Lorna points out a few other concerns that people had about the on-going development in the area, including the possibility of local contractors putting prices up due to all the other projects. Timeframes may also be affected by both on-going work and the fact that more businesses will be getting involved in the area's development. [19:15] What are the group's main aims?: BedX's main aim is to be an opportunity exchange, they sit in the middle as a conduit between the opportunities and the Bedfordshire businesses and help to inform, educate and prepare to be a part of it. They are there to support preparation local businesses are able to access emerging supply chains as that waterfall flows down into tier 2 and 3 and even into 4 and 5 over the course of the project. If you're not sure which of those tiers you'd likely sit in, BedX have a helpful household checklist to find out. [20:20] Getting ISO Ready for Universal: Kirsty mentions that she's seen a lot of recent Pre-Qualification Questionnaires (PQQ's) request that bidding companies are certified to ISO 27001 Information Security. Many will be familiar with the requests for ISO 9001 (Quality Management), ISO 14001 (Environmental Management) and ISO 45001 (Occupational Health & Safety), but ISO 27001 seems to be a more recent pre-requisite. This is particularly the case for any Government contracts, with them stating either Cyber Essentials or ISO 27001 must be in place for any bidding businesses. Carly points out that ISO 27001 in many cases is just the first step, as you can strengthen this with supporting Standards such as ISO 27701 (Privacy Information Management) and ISO 27017 & ISO 27018 (Cloud Security), which can give you an advantage over your competitors. If you've not got any Standards in place, or are just starting out on your implementation journey, you can get in contact with Blackmores as we'd be happy to guide you towards successful certification. [25:00] Kirsty's role within BedX: Kirsty's role is focused on coordination, though all BedX organisers are volunteers, they still want to ensure that actions are followed up and completed. Kirsty has a project planning background and brings those skills to the group. She also plays a key part in tender and procurement readiness, as she has years of experience with PQQ's from her work within the construction industry. She knows what good looks like when bidding for work, and ensures that knowledge is being passed on to those looking to bid for Universal and other Bedfordshire development projects. A trait that many of the BedX team hold, Kirsty and Lorna especially, is the motivation to help people, and this group allows them to do so at scale. [27:45] How can businesses get involved with BedX?: You don't need to be a member of the Bedfordshire Chamber of Commerce to get involved. Currently BedX's main focus is on knowledge sharing, so their main output in webinars. They also have a tender diagnostic tool available, this is an online tool which takes just a few minutes to complete and will give you an idea of where you're already compliant and where there's work to be done. They have also had 1 in-person event, that being their official launch in April of 2026, which was attended by members from the Bedfordshire business community and representatives from Universal, Sizewell C and Luton Rising. They expect to run more in-person events in future, so keep an eye on their LinkedIn for news on these! Lorna hints at an upcoming event planned for September 2026

This playlist is 91% vinyl friendly. Near perfect. Philips, The Tina Century Bluetooth Turntable room.. A £350-£400 retro look to blend in with your wood panelling room, it reminds me of a car grill from the 1960s. Built-in speakers with deep (how low can you go) bass and crystal-clear highs. Any track marked * has been given either a tiny or a slightly larger 41 Rooms tweak/edit/chop and the occasional tune might sound a bit dodgy, quality-wise. On top of that, the switch between different decades and production values never helps in the mix here. Lyric of Playlist 154 Tim Hardin’s lyric and song title. 00.00 (Intro) THE FLAMINGOS – Stars (Edit) – Unreleased demo – 1983. Episode #1 for info. 00.41 NEW ORDER – Dreams Never End (John Peel session: 16.2.81) – The Peel Sessions 12″ EP – Strange Fruit – 1987 Diary for Jan 16, ’81 says ‘Karl W round. NEW ORDER JOHN PEEL…‘ Those caps signal something special and the journey had begun at Heaven, London a week earlier. Two good mates called Karl were there, though I hadn’t realised the one at my house listening to the first broadcast of the session was a Carl. 03.45 THE TEARDROP EXPLODES – Second Head – Kilimanjaro, LP – Mercury – 1980 Listening to this album now it’s got a bit of a bubbly and bouncy feel. Judging by a set list suggested for the Manchester Poly night’ that followed ours/mine it doesn’t look like Second Head made into our night here. Packed with Kilimanjaro tracks though. 06.55 TOM PETTY and THE HEARTBREAKERS – I Need To Know – 7″ – Shelter – 1978 Still with a fair amount of ‘rock’ in my world at this point in time, for some reason I thought I’d had a 12″ of this but that would have been a bit daft. At just 2mins 22 plus, a fiery new wave feel that could have made it as an Elvis Costello tune. 09.17 FORMAL SPPEEDWEAR – Who Needs Spain Ball – Punch Card, LP – Melodic – 2026 “Who Needs Spain Ball?”. ‘On the surface, the single functions as a highly accessible, synth-forward New Wave track featuring the record's biggest, most infectious pop chorus. However, the title and the song’s inner mechanics are intentionally surreal, designed to “pull the rug” out from under the listener‘. – Apologies, I forgot the source. An early Talking Heads vibe going on? They’re pulling the rug even more with their merch – with the band’s name the only lettering… album t-shirts! 12.28 BIG JOANIE – It’s You – Sistahs, LP – The Daydream Library Series – 2018 So post punk! 14.48 EGOSLAVIA – Twist Face – Self-titled, (mini) LP – 9 1/2 x 16″ Records – 1982 Not that many will have debated it but I’ve always pronounced this band as ‘Egoslayvia’ and it’s only just dawned on me it was likely ‘Egoslahvia’. Better late… and a band I was introduced to by a US guy who dropped in on John Peel’s radio show somewhere in the ’80s. Very unusual for Peely to have anyone else in the studio with him but his guest was picking tracks from three or so US bands that Peely had never heard of, something that irritated the latter, slightly. 20.08 BIFFER BONKER – 4 Prong, Fucked Up, 2 Potato Thing – Biffer Bonker Is…Unabashed, download album only – ? – 2026 Anyone with a decades long history of Bedford, UK’s musical landscape stretching back to punk bands of the mid to late 70s will have knowledge of Biffer in a former life or three fronting a wealth of different bands but his present world view is available here, with something from the man for me currently getting waylaid by various postal services. ‘No god is required… ‘ Ain’t that the truth and if there isn’t a lyric sheet involved somewhere I might be requesting one :), as he’ll be back here at some point. He’s also the man who introduced me to Click Click via an early demo tape of theirs somewhere around 1984. 23.17 BROKEN SPINDLES – To Die, For Death – Fulfilled / Complete, LP – Saddle Creek – 2004 Content with having spun Induction on an earlier show, and as it turns out, rightly guessing on the album’s diversity I hadn’t been rushing to grab the physical vinyl… but here we are! One Joel Peterson, from Omaha, Nebraska. 25.35 TARWATER – 20 Miles Up – Silur, LP – Kitty-Yo – 1986 From the US to Germany and there’s a far wider breadth to this duos ‘catalogue’ than the two tracks now spun on 41 Rooms would suggest. 29.35 RIPPLE – I Don’t Know What It Is But It Sure Is Funky – 7″ – GRC – 1973 I don’t know about I Don’t Know… but with no UK release it’s unlikely our mainstream radio of the time spun this, though maybe a DJ or two down the Pilgrims or in the Anglers (Inn) Lair across the road could have. I have strong memories of hearing Willie Henderson’s Dance Master at the latter. 32.53 MARY KENT – Lost Generation – 7″ – CBS – 1969 It’s a slower, darker take than the version the song’s writer, Jim(my) Webb put out himself a year later and though Mary’s intro needed red carding for the show her version has some gravitas and feels ‘worthier’ now than it may have done to the UK’s record buyers back in 1969… what with the Vietnam war being… yep, somewhere else. The intro brings to my mind Common Sense’s Resurrection ’95. 36.57 LADY BLACKBIRD vs CROOKED MAN – Whatever His Name (Pt 1) * – Crooked Spirituals Remixes, 12″ – Foundation – 2025 She’s rightly got her soul audience but I much prefer her vocals set against some electronic goings on, as with the already 41 Rooms’ spun Athletes Of God and some remixing bods, including here, Crooked Man. They seem to give her vocals more of an edge for me. 42.18 ROBERTO RODRIGUEZ (feat. MAX C) – About This Love (Crazy P Remix) (Dub) * – 12″ – Compost Black Label – 2009 The vocals are incidental but the track just keeps building, dropping, shifting. A head-nod-a-thon of slight unease. 45.42 CLICK CLICK – Stay Out Of The Water – 12″ b-side – Rorschach Testing – 1985 Great times in the summer and autumn of ’85. Our RT label is off and running with a party at Winkles (Bedford), a P(roduction) and D(istribution) deal with Rough Trade, 500 copies of the initial yellow and blue sleeved 12″ pressing head straight to the US off the back of A-side (Sweet Stuff) getting CC Single Of The Week in Sounds and with spins on John Peel’s radio show there are one-off gigs in London, Brighton and Northampton and rehearsals are sounding great. Gig poster for 28.11.84. Part of a Rorschach Testing ad, The Catalogue #29, Aug ’85. 49.24 SIMPLE MINDS – Premonition (John Peel session: 7.1.80) – Silver Box, 5CD – Virgin – 2004 Having already seen them on the OGWT (live from Hurrah’s New York) and live at the Marquee the previous month I must have heard this session but for whatever reason I definitely didn’t record it. A ropey photo below of mine from London’s Hammersmith Palais, 26.8.80. 54.28 THE FALL – Dktr. Faustus * – Bend Sinister, LP – Beggars Banquet – 1986 It’s about time Mark E Smith (RIP) and his gang made it back here… so they have. 00.01.00 ECHO and THE BUNNYMEN – I Bagsy Yours (John Peel session: 22.8.79) – The Peel Sessions 12″ EP – 1988 This show’s third Peel session track of the era and the song renamed Monkeys in time to nestle next to the track Crocodiles months later on their debut album. I’m with ‘Bagsy’, though. Even us southerners used the term back then, though it might be best to not remember how it was being used here. 01.02.47 THE MOVE – I Can Hear The Grass Grow – 7″ – Deram – 1967 ‘An early, proto-psychedelic freakbeat masterpiece‘ in some modern day circles but a fab bit of wild pop back then. As the years rolled on though, the ‘weedier’ (sadly) Roy Wood’s guitar interjections have sounded. 01.05.52 PETULA CLARK – The Other Man’s Grass (Is Always Greener) – 7″ – Pye – 1967 Husband and wife writers, Tony Hatch and Jackie Trent (or in this particular case, Jackie Trent and Tony Hatch :)), with their key and tempo changing swirler giving ‘Our Pet’ her last Top 20 hit. So idiosyncratic it never got covered by anyone else or maybe offered as an exclusive to Petula? Either way, I bet Trent (no mean singer herself) forwarded a guide vocal version and I’d have been interested in hearing that. And it’s taken me a week to realise I’ve placed two songs next to each with ‘Grass’ in the title. Very unintentional but spooky and true. 01.08.49 BROOKE COMBE – Tears Won’t Lie * – 7″ – Fontana – 2026 I reckon Northern soul’s younger followers will dance and some older purists will very likely pick at the production but Combe and co-writer, James Skelly have nailed it, and if this song had been recorded in the mid 1960s – and maybe on the label this 7″ now pays homage to (with say Kiki Dee?) – there’d be an even bigger price tag on it than this barely out of the 2026 pressing plant £18 7′ already commands. Also, all involved in the Combe camp will have been as meticulous on the look for the dancers in the video as was MT Jones for his I Don’t Understand. Paying homage can be tough stuff. 01.11.19 TERRY CALLIER – Ordinary Joe – 7″ – Cadet – 1972 Terry and producer, Charles Stepney with a ‘skipping along the road’ feel. An even more expensive buy than the above… and I have neither. 01.15.17 CHAIRMEN OF THE BOARD – Give Me Just A Little More Time – 7″ – Invictus – 1970 INV 501. Did Invictus kick off their UK releases with a homage to Tamla Motown’s UK singles catalogue. Five years earlier the latter had also started with (TMG) 501, via The Supremes’ Stop In The Name Of Love. 01.17.57 JACKIE WILSON – I Get The Sweetest Feeling – 7″ – Brunswick – 1968 1968 for Jackie but the mid ’70s for me. Putnoe, Bedford… sunshine… Gill H… 01.20.49 THE CONTROLLERS – Somebody’s Gotta Win, Somebody’s Gotta Loose (7″ version) – 7″ – Juana – 1977 I didn’t knowingly hear this til maybe twenty years ago. With the amount of music that bypasses us, is it possible I’ve never heard the greatest song I could ever hear? 01.24.42 UMBRA MOON – Don’t Let Me Down – Download only – 2024 This Australian girl is seemingly taking longer to break out than I would have imagined but though stylistically aside of my normal listening, this is a gem. 01.28.02 SHAWN PHILLIPS – Solitude – 7″ b-side – Columbia – 1965 With my copy bought for this side alone, there are few artists I’ve come across who have been both super jaunty and deeper than deep in the songwriting department and 41 Rooms can be with Shawn in both moods. 01.30.48 JOHN and BEVERLEY MARTYN – Primrose Hill – 7″ – Warner Brothers – 1970 In 1970 approximately 1% of the American population had a passport, so aside thinking (at best) Primrose Hill maybe had some Civil War battle reference for them they were going to struggle to warm to this London landmark being referenced, even though somebody at Warners US – as opposed to their UK counterpoints – thought this Carole King-like tune had legs as a single. Sadly, they were wrong, with the promo 7″ likely more common than the stock copy. 01.33.40 TIM HARDIN – You Upset The Grace Of Living When You Lie – 7″ promo only – Verve Forecast – 1967 Yep, lyric and title of show 154 goes to… though at 1min 45 it’s nearly over by the time he’s got through singing the line. A ragged, slightly altered take of the song was part of Hardin’s performance at Woodstock but his set only got to make it to an official release of the festival in 2019. 01.35.22 JOSE FELICIANO – Dirty Work – For My Love… Mother Music, LP – RCA – 1974 It’s likely I’d be outnumbered with my thinking here but Jose’s passion makes Steely Dan’s own recorded version, sung by their then main vocalist, David Palmer, sound lack lustre. 01.38.08 VANGELIS – He-O – Earth, LP – Vertigo – 1973 Back in Vangelis’ big years I only got around to wanting his 1976 single, Pulstar but then hearing the Beatfanatics Balearic Boogie Remix of Let It Happen in 2007 led me backwards to this album and it’s the vocals (of one Robert Fitoussi) on both tracks that seem to make the difference for me. 01.42.05 STEVIE WONDER – Pastime Paradise * – Songs In The Key Of Life, 2LP – Tamla Motown – 1976 I bought the album at the time but my youthful ignorance didn’t fully take in the scale of Stevie’s accomplishment and looking now at the full tracklisting there were only six tracks I regularly played, with Pastime Paradise being one of them. The American buyers who took Songs… to No 1 in the Billboard album charts will have delved deeper. 01.45.21 KOICHI OZAKI – Petal Of The Cherry Blossom * – Novo Tempo / Koichi Ozaki: Novo Tempo Meets Eurasian Suite Vol. 2, 12″ – Eurasian Suite – 2004 If I could dip into the whole of the soul/(acid)jazz/beats etc etc world of the Japanese from the ’90s onwards there’d be a basket full of great tunes I’ve yet to hear. So little time… 01.51.22 KEITH JARRETT (TRIO) – Dancing – Changeless, LP – ECM Records – 1989 ‘Original material which is deeply subversive (though also respectfully aware) of the whole tradition of jazz as a system of improvisation on ‘the changes’… On Changeless, there are no chord progressions at all; the trio improvises each section in a single key, somewhat in the manner of an Indian raga‘. – The Penguin Guide to Jazz. ‘These pieces – not written, rehearsed, thought out, sketched, or arranged – ‘came up’ in the middle of four distinctly different concerts. Process is swifter and more accurate than thought.‘ – Keith Jarrett’s album liner notes (edited). Show 155 arrives Sept 6.

In December 2005, ten days after their wedding, Summers and New embarked on their honeymoon, travelling first to the Caribbean and then—according to publicly available flight logs—to Epstein's private island. They departed from Bedford, Massachusetts, on December 21 on Epstein's plane bound for St. Thomas, U.S. Virgin Islands, a typical staging point to transfer onward to Little Saint James. The records indicate that Summers and New, along with Epstein's pilot and Ghislaine Maxwell as co-traveller, made a short stop on the island for less than a full day. A spokesperson for Summers later confirmed the brief visit, noting it took place “long before” Epstein's first formal federal criminal charges.Although Summers has never been charged with any wrongdoing in relation to Epstein, this honeymoon stop has become a focal point of scrutiny because it occurred while Epstein was already under investigation for alleged sexual crimes and because the island later became infamous for sex-trafficking allegations. The trip is now viewed as one of multiple documented occasions Summers flew aboard Epstein's aircraft, including three flights during his tenure as president of Harvard University.to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.comBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-epstein-chronicles--5003294/support.

Your S&P 500 fund says 7% — but over 300 of its stocks are beating the index. This week we dig into the massive broadening of the market that almost nobody in the financial media is talking about, and why we think it's the healthiest thing to happen to this bull market in years.For three years, seven stocks did all the talking. This year, the other 493 are answering. On this week's Money On Tap, we walk through the numbers behind the broadening: the Magnificent Seven still make up roughly a third of every dollar in a cap-weighted S&P 500 index fund — which is exactly why so many statements look stuck at 7% while the equal-weight S&P runs above 14%, the Russell 1000 Value nears 20%, and healthcare and industrials each post roughly 24% year to date. We connect it to the 100-year-old Dow theory (industry makes goods, transportation moves them — and both are near highs), unpack the defensive-stock paradox (staples rallying while nobody calls a recession), revisit the historical pattern from 1983, 1995, 2003, 2013, and 2020 where tech blows out and then leadership broadens — and get practical about what a broadening market rewards most: rebalancing, equal-weight exposure, sector and international diversification, and knowing what your 401(k) actually owns.What you'll learn:Why a third of every S&P 500 index-fund dollar sits in just seven stocks — and what that's done to your return this yearThe breadth numbers: 300+ stocks beating the index, roughly seven in ten S&P names up on the yearThe sector scoreboard: healthcare ~24%, industrials ~24%, staples ~11.3%, financials ~9.7%, utilities ~7.6%Why money is rotating, not leaving — and why that's the opposite of how crashes startDow theory at 100+: what industrials and transports near highs historically signalThe defensive-stock paradox: staples leading without a recession call anywhere in sightThe rebalancing playbook: taking profits without apology, calendar discipline, equal-weight funds (11.9% vs 10.9% over 20 years)How to broaden with new contributions instead of selling your winnersTarget-date fund warnings: layered fees, hidden allocations, and no way to rebalanceWhy this is not a reason to dump technology — proportion, not exitPlus Money In The News:A property-management company bets $200K on AI to make the trades more efficient — filling a labor gap instead of cutting jobsApple set for its strongest June-quarter sales growth in five years — flat iPhone pricing, a $5 trillion moment, and sitting out the AI arms raceThe 100-year-old Dow theory says this market isn't done climbingWant a white paper on this week's topic? Email us at info@yourmoneyontap.com and we'll send it over.Read the companion blog: https://www.brayshawfinancial.com/blogSchedule a free consultation: https://app.greminders.com/t/9f3ce72e/initialconsultaBrowse the full Money On Tap library: https://www.brayshawfinancial.com/money-on-tapContact UsPhone: 855-226-8551Email: info@yourmoneyontap.comOffice: 116 South River Road, Bedford, NH 03110Web: brayshawfinancial.comSecurities and advisory services offered through Osaic Wealth, Inc., member FINRA/SIPC.

Meanwhile the equal-weight S&P 500 is up more than double the cap-weighted index, and over 300 individual S&P stocks are beating it, led by healthcare and industrials near 24%. The fix isn't leaving the market — it's diversification: equal-weight exposure, sector funds, and a rebalancing discipline that trims concentration back to your plan.

During a one-day pilgrimage to all 16 perpetual adoration chapels in the Archdiocese of Indianapolis, Fr. Jonathan Meyer experienced a powerful reminder of why Eucharistic Adoration matters. At St. Vincent de Paul in Bedford, a grieving young man named Sean arrived at the church simply because he needed to pray. He and his girlfriend had just lost their unborn child, Georgia, at 16 weeks. Sean was not Catholic, but he was searching for truth, peace, and a place where he could encounter God. What he found was Jesus present in the Eucharist—and a woman named Lynn who was ready to sit beside him, comfort him, and love Jesus with him. This homily is a beautiful witness to the power of prayer, the Real Presence of Christ, and the importance of keeping our churches open so that those who are hurting always have somewhere to go. When Jesus is placed on the altar and we allow Him to work, amazing things happen. Please pray for Sean, his girlfriend, their child Georgia, Lynn, and all those grieving the loss of a child. “Blessed are your eyes because they see, and your ears because they hear.” #EucharisticAdoration #CatholicHomily #RealPresence #Prayer #Eucharist #FrJonathanMeyer #CatholicFaith #PerpetualAdoration #InfantLoss

Whatever you've done, there's a very good chance you can recover. That's the message of this week's show — and then Ben and Dan get specific, decade by decade, about the mistakes that quietly sink retirements and the moves that rescue them.In this week's Money On Tap, Ben Brayshaw and Dan Michelon walk through the money mistakes of every stage of life. The 20s and 30s: waiting to invest, lifestyle inflation, and treating insurance as a nuisance instead of what it really is — protection of your ability to retire. The 40s — the squeeze years: turning off the 401(k) match to pay the bills (walking away from free money), getting too comfortable with debt, and skipping the tax planning that builds tax-free assets for later. The 50s — the catch-up years: catch-up contributions, the HSA "triple threat," the backdoor Roth, and the fear-driven mistake of going too conservative too soon. And in retirement itself: the light-switch move to cash, target-date funds past their date, scattered old 401(k)s, chasing a "number" instead of an income, and the biggest one of all — no plan for a health change.What you'll learn:Why your 20s and 30s are the most powerful investing decade you'll ever get — and what lifestyle inflation really costsInsurance reframed: insuring well-being, not events — and why long-term care planning protects the healthy spouseThe 401(k) match rule for the squeeze years: never walk away from free moneyWhen to shift from investment planning to retirement planning — and why the goal is an income number, not a total numberThe catch-up toolkit for your 50s: 401(k) and IRA catch-ups, the HSA triple threat, and the backdoor RothWhy "too conservative too soon" quietly loses money backwards — and how segmentation puts risk and security in one strategyThe bucket strategy in action: a real case of a 60%-bond portfolio, a 4.5% withdrawal rate, and a first-home gift — rescuedFoundational expenses: the income planning step most people skip before retiringThe health-change plan: estate documents, powers of attorney, and why waiting can mean it's too late to signPlus Money In The News:Alphabet set for a blockbuster quarter as AI bets collide with spending fears — why this AI buildout isn't the dot-com eraPhased tariffs on generic drugs: 90% of U.S. prescriptions are generics, and most aren't made hereFidelity's new number: retirees may need nearly $186,000 for healthcare — up 7.5% in a yearWant the Retirement Rescue white paper? Email us at info@yourmoneyontap.com and we'll send it over.Read the companion blog: https://www.brayshawfinancial.com/blogSchedule a free consultation: https://app.greminders.com/t/9f3ce72e/initialconsultaBrowse the full Money On Tap library: https://www.brayshawfinancial.com/money-on-tapContact UsPhone: 855-226-8551Email: info@yourmoneyontap.comOffice: 116 South River Road, Bedford, NH 03110Web: brayshawfinancial.comSecurities and advisory services offered through Osaic Wealth, Inc., member FINRA/SIPC.

A deadly attack in Boston has sparked calls for action. A Bedford man is facing charges in connection with two violent incidents, including the death of a man found with serious injuries near Boylston and Tremont streets and a separate assault near Beach Street. The Downtown Boston Neighborhood Association is calling for a renewed task force to address public safety concerns, and co-founder Rishi Shukla joined Dan to discuss.

It's Tuesday, July 21st, A.D. 2026. This is The Worldview in 5 Minutes heard on 140 radio stations and at www.TheWorldview.com.  I'm Adam McManus. (Adam@TheWorldview.com) By Kevin Swanson, Timothy Reed and Adam McManus Chinese pastor reveals prison conditions The Chinese pastor, just released from prison, because of the U.S. President's intervention, spoke out about his experience in a Wall Street Journal article. Ezra Jin said eight of his church members are still in prison, in rough conditions. He wrote that “[They] are confined in cramped cells and sleep on floor mats in blistering heat. Many leave behind young families. I won't rest until they see freedom.” Throughout the day, the Christians were required to sit on hard benches and could not stand up without requesting permission of the authorities. The pastor further stated, “These Christians love their nation. They only want to worship God peacefully, according to the Bible, and to serve others, especially the poor, the disabled, and the elderly.” 900 people in Congo, Africa have died from E-bola That E-bola outbreak in Congo, Africa has now killed over 900 people and will soon be the second worst E-bola outbreak in history. At least 36 health workers have contracted the disease and died in the outbreak. Samaritan's Purse has two treatment centers operating right now in the Congo. At least one of the ministry workers has been diagnosed with the disease, and is being treated in Frankfurt, Germany. State Secretary Marco Rubio denounces leftist political violence Secretary of State Marco Rubio spoke at a summit on political terrorism attended by representatives from more than 60 countries. Rubio explained the culture of violence and revolution that is on the rise with the Left, both in the United States and across the world.  Listen. RUBIO: “You are here because your political leaders are being attacked and stabbed and shot in your streets, because your businesses have been bombed, because your railways have been sabotaged, because your police officers have been beaten and burned. You are here because this is real, and it is getting worse. It can no longer be denied. It can no longer be ignored because it is time to crush this evil forever. “The simple fact is, none of this that I've just described is new. Far-left political terrorism is not a recent-day modern novelty. It is not a fiction manufactured by conservative politicians. For most of the modern era, it was, in fact, the dominant form of political violence.” Romans 13:3 says, “For rulers are not a terror to good works, but to evil. Do you want to be unafraid of the authority? Do what is good, and you will have praise from the same.” Vice President J.D. Vance and Usha welcome fourth child Psalm 127:3 declares, “Children are a heritage of the Lord. The fruit of the womb is His reward.” Vice President J.D. Vance and his wife Usha welcomed their fourth child into the world — Alec Neel Vance, reports LifeSiteNews.com. The Vice President spoke at a Right to Life event last year in this vein. VANCE: “So let me say very simply: I want more babies in the United States of America.” (cheering) He went on to say, “I want more happy children in our country, and I want beautiful young men and women who are eager to welcome them into the world and eager to raise them." This marks the first time in more than 150 years that a sitting Vice President has had a child born into the family while in office. Also, Donald Trump, a father of five, represented a shift after Presidents Bill Clinton's one child, George W. Bush's two children, and Barack Obama's two children. 7,000 Americans contracted cyclospora virus, many from Taco Bell Here in the states as many as 7,000 Americans are suspected to have contracted the cyclospora virus, a parasitic disease producing weeks of diarrhea. The Associated Press reports that federal health officials have identified lettuce from Mexico served at Taco Bell locations across five U.S. states as a source. Last Thursday, the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention warned consumers not to eat shredded iceberg lettuce from Taco Bell restaurants in Indiana, Kentucky, Michigan, Ohio and West Virginia. A record number of cyclospora cases have been reported in more than 30 states. The FDA's traceback investigation identified a single supplier of iceberg lettuce from Mexico. Officials suspect that the lettuce was watered with feces-contaminated water. So far, the disease is most prevalent in New York, Michigan, and North Carolina. Republicans wants to curtail surveillance Flock cameras Conservative Republicans in the United States House of Representatives put forward a bill to curtail the surveillance being conducted through devices such as Flock cameras. The bill, filed by Republican Congressman Keith Self of Texas, would force police departments to obtain a warrant to search through camera data and license plate readers when looking for criminals.  Representative Self explained, “Americans' Fourth Amendment right to be secure in their privacy does not disappear just because of new technology or artificial intelligence. Americans have a constitutional right to be secure in their persons, houses, papers, and effects, and our government is supposed to get a warrant before invading that privacy. This bill simply restores that protection.”  As of 2025, Flock is used by over 6,000 municipalities in the United States. The company had raised a total of $950 million in venture funding, with a $7.5 billion valuation. Court: Amish parents cannot abstain from school vaccinations The U.S. Second Court of Appeals ruled against the Amish community in New York, which had sued to abstain from school vaccinations. The ruling strips parents of their right to abstain from school vaccinations for their children due to religious reasons.  The New American pointed out, “Should the case reach the Supreme Court of the United States, as legal experts expect, the decision could have nationwide implications for religious exemptions in all 45 states that currently allow them for school vaccines.” America's hot summer It's a hot summer, especially in the Western states. Billings, Montana topped out at a record 111 degrees on Sunday. Salt Lake City also set record temperatures. And ABC News reports that 100 million Americans will experience extreme temperatures this week. Forecasters are expecting 20-30 degrees hotter than the average temperatures. Aspen Fires in Colorado burned 100,000 acres The Colorado Aspen Acres Fire is the biggest fire in the country thus far — burning down 100,000 acres, reports The Colorado Sun. The Pacific Northwest has two big fires raging now as well. First, the Hay Creek Complex fire has burned over 92,000 acres, and the Rowe Creek Complex fire has burned 36,000 acres. Spain wins Soccer's World Cup On Sunday, Spain beat Argentia 1-0 in the final World Cup soccer game, reports ABC News. ANNOUNCER: “At long, long last, Spain's magic moment. Spain are the champions. Spain have seized their second star. The kings of Europe have conquered the world.” President Donald Trump showed up at the Met Life Stadium to hand off the reward. Two million Spanish fans took to the streets to cheer the world champions as they travelled down Madrid's historic avenues from near Moncloa Palace. Unapologetic prayer at NASCAR NASCAR stock car racing opened up its FaithFest Jesus is Lord 250 with a prayer this weekend in North Wilkesboro, North Carolina.   Listen to the unapologetic prayer by Craig Church of Faith Fest Evangelistic Ministries. CHURCH: “Let us pray. Thank you, Father, for this historic moment here at North Wilkesboro Speedway. I pray your blessings over the drivers, this team, the race in this place. Jesus Christ, use John 3:16 to change lives across this nation. ‘For God so loved the world that it did His only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth on Him should not perish, but have everlasting life.' “I want to proclaim Jesus Christ is Lord to the glory of God. God bless America. Revive us again. And I pray this prayer in the most precious and powerful name I know, Jesus Christ. Amen.” Rhode Island Worldview listener calls newscast “a treasure trove” A listener in Rhode Island wrote, “Adam, I first heard The Worldview as a featured spot on Sermon Audio. Since that time, I have listened faithfully without hardly ever missing an episode via the Apple podcasts app. “In fact, it's the first podcast of the day that I listen to while tidying my home before starting my shift as a remote scheduling coordinator and customer service representative.  “I have also recommended it to my friends. One of my closest friends is a new listener and she will ‘binge listen' to the previous week's episodes on her way to church.  “I am extremely grateful to you and your team for this ministry. I don't know of a broadcast like it! World news from a Christian worldview? In about 5 minutes? Updates on the persecuted church? Scripture references? This broadcast is a treasure trove!” 9 Worldview listeners gave $3,285 And finally, by Monday night at 8:50pm Central, 9 Worldview listeners stepped up to the plate and invested their treasure to fund the six-member team behind The Worldview for another year.

With your help, can you be one of 30 folks to make a donation or a pledge today for my report on Wednesday? In order to hit our July 24th goal, we need to find 11 Worldview listeners who will pledge $100/month for 12 months or give a one-time gift of $1,200, 20 folks who will pledge $50/month or give a one-time gift of $600, and 44 listeners who will pledge $25/month or give a one-time gift of $300.

The S&P 500 is up about 10.2% this year. That average is hiding one of the most lopsided markets in a decade: energy up 28%, communication services negative, and the Magnificent Seven — the stocks that carried the market for three years — collectively underwater.In this week's Money On Tap, Ben Brayshaw and Dan Michelon go beyond the index, sector by sector. They walk the 2026 scoreboard — energy +28.1%, technology +26.8%, industrials +16%, with a 30-point gap between the top and bottom sectors — and unpack the year's most important story: the broadening of the market, with 46.3% of S&P companies now beating the index itself, up from 30.5% last year. Then the mechanics most investors never see: why seven stocks absorb a third of every dollar in a standard S&P fund, why the SPY and QQQ share 8–9 of their top 10 holdings, and why your "diversified" ETFs may be the same bundle of stocks in different wrappers. They close with the Fed's looming rate decision — hike odds jumped from 26% to 73% in one month — and the five durable themes they're watching for the second half.What you'll learn:The 2026 sector scoreboard: all 11 sectors ranked, from energy's +28.1% to communication services' −3.1%The broadening of the index: why 46.3% of S&P companies are beating the index — a decade-plus firstWhy the Mag Seven flipped from engine to anchor (Microsoft down 20%+), and what the index looks like without themThe ETF overlap trap: cap weighting, 35–55% in the top 10, and wrappers around the same stocksWhat a Fed rate hike would do to sector leadership — winners and losers under both scenariosBuffett's warning: "a church with a casino attached," and why down doesn't mean cheapThe dials for outperforming: sector weighting, security selection, valuation discipline, income, cash, and tax managementTaking gains on purpose: the sequence-of-returns lesson in 2026's −4.3% Q1 and +15.2% Q2Five second-half themes: electrification, defense, nuclear renaissance, the aging population, and the infrastructure rebuildPlus Money In The News:73% odds of a Fed rate hike by September — up from 26% just a month earlier — and the two culprits behind itWarren Buffett: it's tough to find value "when everybody is preferring gambling"Blockbuster stock sales — SpaceX's record $75B IPO, Alphabet's $85B raise, SK Hynix ADRs — and whether $500B of new equity can overwhelm the bull marketRead the companion blog: https://www.brayshawfinancial.com/blogSchedule a free consultation: https://app.greminders.com/t/9f3ce72e/initialconsultaBrowse the full Money On Tap library: https://www.brayshawfinancial.com/money-on-tapContact UsPhone: 855-226-8551Email: info@yourmoneyontap.comOffice: 116 South River Road, Bedford, NH 03110Web: brayshawfinancial.comSecurities and advisory services offered through Osaic Wealth, Inc., member FINRA/SIPC.

In 2026 those mega-caps lagged — the Mag Seven are collectively negative — while sectors like energy (+28.1%) and technology (+26.8%) led. If your ETFs overlap in the same top names, you own the laggards several times over. The fix starts with knowing what you actually own.

A new study says the average retired couple needs $1.16 million to retire comfortably. Scary headline — until you do the math. Because retirement was never about reaching a number. It's about the paycheck that number can produce.In this week's Money On Tap, Ben Brayshaw and Dan Michelon take the "magic number" apart piece by piece. They trace where $1.16 million actually comes from — $84,000 in average spending, $37,700 in Social Security, and a 4% withdrawal covering the gap — then show what the headline can't see: sequence of returns risk, the tax code, health events, and the market's habit of dropping 25–30% when you can least afford it. The centerpiece is a tale of three couples: Couple A with $1.8 million and no guaranteed income beyond Social Security, Couple B with $950,000 and a teacher's pension, and Couple C with $900,000 who built their own pension with an annuity — and ended up more secure than the couple with twice the money.What you'll learn:Where the $1.16 million figure really comes from — and why the study converts it to income immediatelyWhy the race-to-a-number mindset is programmed into us, and why it fails in retirementThe tax reality: 12% vs. 22% brackets, Social Security taxation, RMDs at 73, Medicare's hidden 3–5% "tax," and climbing capital gains ratesThe bucket strategy: cash for years 0–3, buffered strategies and dividends for 3–7, growth for 7+Why 1% of inefficiency on a 4% drawdown is really 25% of your incomeCouple A vs. B vs. C: how guaranteed income beats a bigger portfolioThe timing trap: why buying the annuity after the crash locks in the lossRewriting the 4% rule with 5–7% joint lifetime annuity payoutsPlus Money In The News:SpaceX goes public: Wall Street's sky-high price targets, the trillion-dollar valuation, and why investors stay cautiousTrump floats an Australian-style retirement system with 12% employer contributionsThe IRA saver's match arriving in 2027: who qualifies, and why the income limits are so tightRead the companion blog: https://www.brayshawfinancial.com/blogSchedule a free consultation: https://app.greminders.com/t/9f3ce72e/initialconsultaBrowse the full Money On Tap library: https://www.brayshawfinancial.com/money-on-tapContact UsPhone: 855-226-8551Email: info@yourmoneyontap.comOffice: 116 South River Road, Bedford, NH 03110Web: brayshawfinancial.comSecurities and advisory services offered through Osaic Wealth, Inc., member FINRA/SIPC.

Send us Fan MailSome conversations don't just give you information—they change the way you see yourself.In this deeply moving episode of Self Reflection Podcast, Lira sits down with behavioral strategist, author, and speaker D.B. Bedford for a conversation that every person—especially every young Black man and woman—needs to hear.Growing up in one of America's most dangerous cities, D.B. witnessed firsthand how unhealed emotions, generational trauma, and unresolved conflict can shape lives, families, and entire communities. Rather than allowing his circumstances to define him, he transformed his lived experiences into a mission: helping people master their emotions before their emotions master them.Together, Lira and D.B. explore the life-changing power of self-awareness, emotional intelligence, and what D.B. calls Civility Intelligence—the ability to remain grounded, respectful, and intentional even in life's most emotionally charged moments.This episode dives into:Why your beliefs, values, and past experiences quietly control your decisions.The hidden behaviors of disrespect that damage relationships without us realizing it.How gossip, dismissiveness, and emotional reactivity slowly erode individuals, families, and workplaces.The four behavioral communication styles that shape how we connect with others.The importance of understanding yourself before trying to understand anyone else.Why healing begins with self-reflection—and why your greatest strength may be your ability to pause instead of react.Beyond the practical tools and powerful frameworks, this conversation is ultimately about hope.It's about believing that no matter where you come from, your past does not have to determine your future.It's about choosing growth over survival.Grace over reaction.Purpose over pain.And perhaps most importantly, it's about embracing one simple but profound truth:You are enough.Whether you're navigating difficult relationships, trying to become a better leader, raising children, healing from past experiences, or simply striving to become a more emotionally healthy version of yourself, this episode will challenge you to slow down, reflect deeply, and lead your life with greater intention.Because sometimes the greatest transformation doesn't begin with changing the world.It begins with changing the conversation happening inside yourself.Take a deep breath, lean in, and join us for one of the most thought-provoking conversations we've ever had.Your next breakthrough may begin with this reflection.Support the showCall to Action: Engage with the Self-Reflection Podcast community!

Only 20–30% of the AI data centers planned through 2030 are built today. The other 70–80% — the cement, the cooling, the chips, the memory, the power — are still coming. And the companies collecting the profits from that build-out are mostly names the mainstream isn't talking about.In this week's Money On Tap, Ben Brayshaw and Dan Michelon go beyond the Mag Seven and into the hidden companies powering the AI revolution. They trace how the AI trade rotated from the companies spending the money to the companies receiving it — the second-wave winners like Micron, SanDisk, Vertiv, Marvell, and Broadcom — and why Taiwan Semiconductor may be the king of the whole story. Then they go layer by layer through what's still ahead: electrical infrastructure, utilities and nuclear power, engineering, construction materials, and data center REITs.What you'll learn:Why only 20–30% of planned AI data centers exist — and what that means for the next decade of demandThe rotation out of the Mag Seven: from speculation and hope to follow-the-moneyThe AI stack, layer by layer: chips, memory (Micron), storage (SanDisk), cooling (Vertiv), networking (Marvell, Broadcom)Why Taiwan Semiconductor is the company nearly every AI player depends onThe risks worth respecting: valuation, capex pullbacks, competition, interest rates, and tariffsThe layers still to come: electrical, power and grid, engineering, materials, machinery, and data center REITsWhy high conviction — knowing why you own what you own — beats chasing every headlinePlus Money In The News:Trump Accounts for kids launch July 4: $1,000 at birth, up to $5,000 a year — and the math that could reach seven figures by retirementWhich financial stocks actually benefit when interest rates stay highTrump's rare earth agenda hits a milestone as the U.S. Army moves to break China's grip on defense metalsRead the companion blog: https://www.brayshawfinancial.com/blogSchedule a free consultation: https://app.greminders.com/t/9f3ce72e/initialconsultaBrowse the full Money On Tap library: https://www.brayshawfinancial.com/money-on-tapContact UsPhone: 855-226-8551Email: info@yourmoneyontap.comOffice: 116 South River Road, Bedford, NH 03110Web: brayshawfinancial.comSecurities and advisory services offered through Osaic Wealth, Inc., member FINRA/SIPC.

By 2048, an estimated $124 trillion will change hands — the largest transfer of wealth in human history. Roughly $105 trillion to heirs, $18 trillion to charity. And here's the uncomfortable truth: about 70% of family wealth disappears by the second generation, and 90% is gone by the third.In this week's Money On Tap, Ben Brayshaw and Dan Michelon dig into what the great wealth transfer really means — not for the economy, but for your family. They unpack why wealth preservation is far more behavioral than investment-driven, what the Vanderbilts got wrong and the Rockefellers got right, and the Warren Buffett principle every parent and grandparent should know. Most importantly, they walk through the four conversations every family needs to have before the money moves — and the simple first step you can take this week.What you'll learn:Why $124 trillion in motion could be a generational blessing — or a great wealth disasterThe statistic that should stop every family cold: 70% gone by generation two, 90% by generation threeWhy wealth preservation is behavioral, not investment-drivenThe tale of two fortunes: Vanderbilt vs. RockefellerThe four conversations every family must have before the transferA practical first step you can take this week — and the BFG white paper that helps you run your own family meetingPlus Money In The News:General Motors and Lockheed Martin announce a new multi-billion-dollar defense manufacturing partnershipJeff Bezos proposes eliminating federal income taxes for the bottom half of U.S. earners — and what it would actually mean“The job interview is broken”: how AI is reshaping hiring on both sides of the tableRead the companion blog: https://www.brayshawfinancial.com/blog Schedule a free consultation: https://app.greminders.com/t/9f3ce72e/initialconsulta Browse the full Money On Tap library: https://www.brayshawfinancial.com/money-on-tapContact Us - Phone: 855-226-8551 - Email: info@yourmoneyontap.com - Office: 116 South River Road, Bedford, NH 03110 - Web: brayshawfinancial.comSecurities and advisory services offered through Osaic Wealth, Inc., member FINRA/SIPC.

Iran's military says it has again closed the Strait of Hormuz -- in response to Israel's continued strikes on southern Lebanon. Israel launched a wave of attacks this morning -- just hours after agreeing a ceasefire with Hezbollah -- saying it was responding to the firing last night of dozens of projectiles by the Iran-backed group. President Trump had said the Strait of Hormuz would reopen to shipping as part of the framework peace deal agreed between the US and Iran, and signed three days ago.Police say nine people remain in a critical condition in hospital after yesterday's fatal train crash near Bedford. A train driver was killed and scores of passengers were injured when one East Midlands Railway passenger service ran into the back of another. Counter terrorism police are investigating a series of suspected anti-Muslim attacks that left five men injured in Edinburgh last night. Officers say they have arrested a 36-year-old white Scottish man.

Welcome to LIFTS, where we explore the future of fitness, wellness, and human performance. In this episode, hosts Matthew Januszek and Mohammed Iqbal are joined by Dr. Paul Bedford, founder of The Retention Guru and one of the fitness industry's leading authorities on member retention, customer experience, and consumer behaviour. After analysing more than 5.5 million gym member records worldwide, Dr. Bedford has spent decades helping operators understand one of the biggest challenges facing fitness businesses today: keeping members engaged for the long term. This conversation explores why retention remains one of the most misunderstood metrics in the fitness industry and why many operators may be focusing on the wrong things. As consumer behaviour continues to evolve, the traditional membership model is being challenged by a new generation of fitness consumers who increasingly belong to multiple gyms, studios, communities, and wellness brands simultaneously. Dr. Bedford shares insights into why members really leave, the critical role community plays in long-term engagement, and why every member interaction contributes to retention. The discussion also examines how operators can create more meaningful experiences and why positive experiences, not extraordinary ones, are often the foundation of long-term loyalty. The episode explores the future of member retention, changing consumer expectations, and what fitness operators must do to remain relevant in an increasingly competitive market. In this episode, we cover: • What 5.5 million member records reveal about retention • Why members really leave gyms • The rise of multi-membership consumers • Why community drives long-term engagement • The retention data many operators ignore • What fitness businesses must do next

In December 1996, 32-year-old Sharon McLane was brutally murdered inside her Bedford, Texas apartment. Two years later, her friend John Earl Nolley was convicted of the crime and sentenced to life in prison. The case appeared closed.But questions never completely disappeared.Years after Nolley's conviction, attorneys with the Innocence Project and Tarrant County's Conviction Integrity Unit uncovered troubling problems with the original prosecution, including undisclosed evidence, unreliable jailhouse informant testimony, and forensic findings that cast doubt on the verdict.Early in the case, Paul Dennis Reid, a violent serial killer later convicted of seven murders in Tennessee and suspected in several others, emerged as an alternate suspect. But police discounted him despite many witnesses placing him at Sharon's apartment complex around the time of the murder, among other things.In the final chapter of Sharon McLane's story, we examine Reid's murder convictions, the evidence that pointed away from Nolley, and the extraordinary review that ultimately led to Nolley's release after nearly two decades behind bars.While John Earl Nolley eventually regained his freedom, Sharon McLane's murder remains unsolved, leaving behind one lingering question that has never been definitively answered:Who killed Sharon McLane?Part three of three.If you have any information about the murder of Sharon Lucretia McLane, please call the Bedford police at (817) 952-2127.You can support gone cold and listen to the show ad-free at https://patreon.com/gonecoldpodcastFind us at https://www.gonecold.comFor Gone Cold merch, visit https://gonecold.dashery.comFollow gone cold on Facebook, Instagram, Threads, TikTok, YouTube, and X.

In December of 1996, 32-year-old Sharon McLane was found brutally murdered inside her Bedford, Texas apartment, stabbed and slashed more than fifty times in a crime that shocked the Mid-Cities area between Dallas and Fort Worth. Police quickly focused on Sharon's acquaintance, John Earl Nolley, and within months he was arrested, charged, and eventually convicted of her murder. But while investigators in Texas built their case against Nolley, another terrifying series of murders was unfolding hundreds of miles away in Tennessee.As Nashville-area detectives investigated what became known as the “Fast Food Murders,” authorities began connecting multiple brutal restaurant killings tied to a violent drifter and former fast-food employee named Paul Dennis Reid Jr. The murders stretched from Captain D's in Donelson to a McDonald's in Hermitage and eventually to the abduction and murder of two Baskin-Robbins employees in Clarksville. The crimes shared disturbing similarities: restaurant workers targeted during opening or closing shifts, robbery mixed with extreme violence, and victims executed by firearm or repeatedly stabbed. As Reid's history and alleged crimes came to light, Sharon McLane's defense attorneys began noticing troubling overlaps between the Tennessee murders and Sharon's killing in Bedford. Witnesses reportedly placed Reid at Sharon's apartment complex around the time investigators believed she was murdered. Others claimed Reid had previously been seen at Sharon's workplace. Hair recovered from Sharon's clothing reportedly did not belong to either Sharon or John Nolley, and witnesses later described Reid appearing with cuts on his hands shortly after the murder.The rise and fall of Paul Dennis Reid was at the expense of several lives, the horrifying Tennessee fast-food murders. And his arrest cast a shadow over the prosecution of John Earl Nolley. As investigators in Tennessee connected Reid to one of the region's most infamous murder sprees, questions continued to linger in Texas about whether Sharon McLane's killer had truly been identified, or whether another violent predator had passed through the Metroplex before the violence escalated elsewhere.Part two of three.If you have any information about the murder of Sharon Lucretia McLane, please call the Bedford police at (817) 952-2127.You can support gone cold and listen to the show ad-free at https://patreon.com/gonecoldpodcastFind us at https://www.gonecold.comFor Gone Cold merch, visit https://gonecold.dashery.comFollow gone cold on Facebook, Instagram, Threads, TikTok, YouTube, and X.
