Quantitative, contrarian, and nuanced: these are the hallmarks of the Freakonomics approach. Hear journalist and podcaster Stephen Dubner speak with EconTalk's Russ Roberts about the 20th anniversary of the popular-economics book Dubner co-authored with Steven Levitt. They discuss how the book came to be, how the journey changed Dubner's life, and how it changed his thinking about various economics issues. The conversation includes a lengthy discussion on the role of private equity in the American economy, and Roberts's claim that Dubner and co-author Steven Levitt's treatment of incentives overlooks the role of competition and markets.

Even after years of recordings, evidence, and convictions — the Adelsons still say it's all a lie.  Why? Because when your identity is built on control, truth becomes negotiable.  In this episode, Tony Brueski, Stacy Cole, and behavioral expert Robin Dreeke examine how cognitive dissonance, self-justification, and moral compartmentalization allowed the Adelsons to maintain their innocence narrative long after it collapsed. Donna's defiance, Harvey's “controlled rage,” and their total lack of empathy aren't just arrogance — they're survival mechanisms for people whose reality depends on never being wrong. Robin breaks down how deception fatigue, emotional rigidity, and “narrative dominance” turn ordinary denial into a pathology — one that consumes entire families. This isn't just a breakdown of a courtroom moment. It's a masterclass in how smart people convince themselves of the impossible. #AdelsonTrial #HiddenKillers #RobinDreeke #FBI #TrueCrime #Psychology #Denial #CognitiveDissonance #DonnaAdelson #DanMarkel Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

 When the judge read out Donna Adelson's sentence, the courtroom expected silence — accountability, maybe even remorse. Instead, it became a masterclass in denial. Eye-rolls, muttered words, an almost theatrical refusal to accept reality. To the untrained eye, it looked like arrogance. But as former FBI Behavioral Analysis Chief Robin Dreeke explains, it was something deeper: the collapse of control. In this powerful breakdown, Tony Brueski, Stacy Cole, and Robin dissect the psychological mechanics behind Donna's unraveling — from her desperate body language to the language of moral blindness. Why do some people fight reality even as it's closing in around them? What happens inside the mind of a narcissistic manipulator when the truth can no longer be managed or spun? This episode doesn't just revisit the sentencing — it rewrites how we understand it. From “controlled rage” to “loss of narrative dominance,” Robin walks us through the science of what we all witnessed: the moment the façade finally broke. #DonnaAdelson #HiddenKillers #RobinDreeke #DanMarkel #BehavioralAnalysis #TrueCrime #FBI #Psychology #Narcissism #CourtroomDrama Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

What happens when control becomes a way of life — and then suddenly, it's gone? When the gavel fell in Donna Adelson's sentencing, the courtroom witnessed more than a verdict. It witnessed the collapse of a family built on manipulation, image, and moral blindness. Former FBI Behavioral Analysis Chief Robin Dreeke joins Tony Brueski, and Stacy Cole to dissect the deeper psychology behind every glance, every denial, every word spoken by Donna and Harvey Adelson. From Donna's muttering defiance to Harvey's calm but seething contempt, this wasn't just a sentencing — it was a behavioral autopsy of power. Robin unpacks the neuroscience of control loss, the pathology of narcissistic rigidity, and the generational indoctrination that kept this family locked in shared delusion. This episode goes beyond the courtroom to expose how denial becomes survival, how love becomes leverage, and how intelligence without empathy turns into rot. #DonnaAdelson #HarveyAdelson #HiddenKillers #RobinDreeke #DanMarkel #TrueCrime #FBI #BehavioralAnalysis #Narcissism #FamilyDynamics Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

Today we sit down with Dr. Anita Archer to unpack how clear, compassionate behavior systems transform a room from reactive to ready. The big shift isn't about control; it's about removing guesswork so students know what to do and teachers can teach.To begin, Dr. Archer dives into why behavior management is important. From there, she breaks down how to mapping key activities into simple, teachable expectations. You'll hear routines in action, the power of specific praise, and the art of pre-correction so success is more likely before the first direction is given. If you're feeling overwhelmed tackling behavior management in your own classroom, Dr. Archer talks through a reset plan: pick a date, relaunch core routines, use “Looks Like / Sounds Like” charts, and keep expectations visible for a few days while habits take root. We wrap up with some memorable "Archerisms:" avoid the void for they will fill it; predictability predicts ability; if you expect it, pre-correct it; and teach with passion, manage with compassion. When expectations are explicit, feedback is specific, and routines are predictable, students feel safe, respected, and ready to learn. If you're aiming for fewer disruptions, stronger focus, and great instruction, listen to this episode today.IES Practice Guides: ies.ed.gov/ncee/wwc/practiceguidesRead the blog: CurriculumAssociates.com/blogFollow us on Twitter: @CurriculumAssocFollow us on Instagram: @MyiReadyHave feedback, questions, or want to be a guest?

In this AMA episode of the Rational Reminder Podcast, Ben Felix and Dan Bortolotti return to answer listener questions across a wide range of topics—from covered call ETFs and dividend tax credits to currency hedging, bond mechanics, leverage, and career reflections. They open with a striking quote from Harvard economist John Campbell on how markets cater to perceived benefits rather than real ones—a perfect setup for their recent discussions on the rise of covered call ETFs.   Key Points From This Episode: (0:59) John Campbell's quote on capitalism's tendency to meet perceived rather than rational needs—and how that perfectly describes the financial industry. (3:44) Covered calls as the perfect example: products that respond to investor demand for yield, not what's actually in their best interest. (4:49) Dan compares income-chasing in covered call ETFs to Apple's marketing genius—except in finance, the benefits flow mostly to issuers, not investors. (5:48) Why dividend bias was relatively harmless, but the covered call craze is not—and how new ETFs “multiply like rabbits.” (7:46) Ben's analysis: in every example studied, covered call investors ended up with less wealth than those holding the underlying equities. (8:13) The hidden trade-off: holding covered call ETFs is like keeping 25–30% of your portfolio in cash for a decade. (9:33) Lighter interlude: Dan teases Ben about his lentil (and later cabbage) lunches. (9:59) First AMA question: Are domestic dividend tax credits already priced into stock valuations? (Short answer: partially, depending on investor composition.) (12:13) Why even if tax benefits are “priced in,” Canadians with favorable tax rates still come out ahead. (15:58) Hedging currencies in commodity economies like Canada and Australia—when it helps, when it hurts, and why there's no perfect answer. (18:48) Dan explains why unhedged portfolios can actually be less volatile for Canadians and why most hedging is imprecise and costly in practice. (20:03) Behavioral perspective: splitting the difference between hedged and unhedged can be the “strategy of least regret.” (21:06) Bonds demystified—why falling prices during rising rates affect funds and individual bonds equally. (22:22) Understanding duration: bond ETFs are designed to stay at a target maturity, while individual bonds age toward zero duration. (26:03) How rising yields actually improve financial plans by boosting future expected returns. (29:08) Choosing the right bond fund duration based on your time horizon and liabilities. (33:39) Are recent bond losses an anomaly? Ben and Dan explain how decades of falling rates created unrealistic expectations. (36:21) The role of unexpected rate changes in bond volatility—and why central banks don't control long-term yields. (38:01) Market-cap weighting: why it remains the most defensible way to allocate across countries and sectors. (41:48) What's changed their thinking after six years of Rational Reminder—from Scott Cederberg's asset allocation data to the behavioral power of homeownership. (45:13) The Horizons/Global X ETF debate: how swap-based, corporate-class structures create tax efficiency—and why that efficiency could vanish. (50:42) Why PWL avoids these products: potential hidden tax liabilities and lack of transparency for clients. (54:31) Borrowing to invest: Ben outlines why leverage works in theory—but Dan explains why most investors shouldn't touch it. (57:25) New “modest leverage” ETFs (125% exposure) as a more behavioral-friendly version of borrowing to invest. (1:00:36) Fulfillment and frustration in finance: helping people achieve peace of mind vs. seeing deception still rampant in the industry. (1:03:09) Five years of Vanguard's all-in-one ETFs (like VEQT): how they've delivered exactly what they promised and reshaped DIY investing in Canada. (1:07:47) Why these “one-ticket” portfolios remain the biggest innovation in Canadian investing—and why global diversification matters more than ever. (1:08:50) Revisiting bonds in retirement: what to expect when they don't offset stock volatility, and how to rethink risk management beyond yield-chasing.   Links From Today's Episode: Meet with PWL Capital: https://calendly.com/d/3vm-t2j-h3p Rational Reminder on iTunes — https://itunes.apple.com/ca/podcast/the-rational-reminder-podcast/id1426530582.

This week, I sit down with two incredible guests to unpack one of the most talked-about (and misunderstood) press conferences in recent months. I'm joined by Dr. Tanya Altmann, pediatrician and founder of Calabasas Pediatrics Wellness Center, and Dr. Anshu Batra, developmental-behavioral pediatrician and autism specialist, to separate fact from fear when it comes to Tylenol, leucovorin, and autism. We talk about what the latest research actually shows, what parents should know, and why conversations about autism deserve more nuance and empathy than political headlines. We discuss: What current research tells us about autism's causes, including the strong role of genetics and the complex mix of environmental and developmental factors. Why studies on Tylenol and autism don't prove causation, and how correlation has been misunderstood in headlines and online discussions. How leucovorin (folinic acid) may support some children with autism, why it's not a cure, and what doctors are actually seeing in practice. The connection between micronutrients, gut health, and neurodevelopment, plus real barriers families face in getting lab work and supplements covered.

We had so much fun the last time we talked about behavioral artistry, we decided to do it again. And this time, we brought one of the folks that's leading the charge to better define just exactly what we DO when we act as behavioral artists. That's right! Dr. Amy Buskzpan is joining us to share the latest in her work on training others to serve as behavioral artists and to help us discrminate TIP from BST. Plus, the Inside Track Gang owes a big citation apology to Dr. Buskzpan…and she doesn't let us forget it! This episode is available for 1.0 LEARNING CEU.

Self-compassion is a powerful, learnable skill in eating disorder recovery. In this conversation with registered social worker, grain farmer, and mom of five, Carrie Pollard, MSW, we explore how compassion lowers shame, supports motivation, and helps people replace harmful coping with kinder, sustainable care. We talk about trauma-informed treatment, somatic awareness, DBT skills, and what self-compassion looks like in real sessions and real life. What You'll Learn What self-compassion really is: noticing suffering and responding to it with care, based on the Mindful Self-Compassion model by Kristin Neff and Christopher Germer. Why “the why” matters: exploring roots like trauma and chronic stress helps people understand why symptoms once protected them and how to meet those needs differently. Behavioral tools and deeper work together: how CBT, FBT, and skills work can sit alongside bottom-up, body-based approaches and insight-oriented therapy. Backdraft in self-compassion: why big feelings can surge when kindness finally lands, and how to ride emotional waves safely. Somatic cues and capacity: using body signals, boundaries, and micro-pauses to prevent overload, especially for high-achieving, people-pleasing clients. Rural and farmer mental health: unique barriers to care, higher anxiety and depression in farm communities, and why accessible, virtual support matters. Key Takeaways Self-compassion reduces shame and increases motivation, which supports behavior change in anorexia, bulimia, binge eating, ARFID, and long-term recovery. You can ask two steady questions throughout healing: What am I feeling? and What am I needing? Emotional waves peak and pass. Skills from DBT and mindful self-compassion help you surf them without self-criticism. Recovery grows when systems of care address trauma, body image, diet culture, and access barriers faced by rural, disabled, neurodivergent, and larger-bodied people. Guest Carrie Pollard, MSW is a registered social worker in Ontario, Canada, @compassionate_counsellor. She brings two decades of clinical experience, deep community ties in agriculture, and a trauma-informed lens to eating disorder treatment. She co-founded a national farmer mental health initiative and participates in the Waterloo-Wellington Eating Disorder Coalition.

Notable Moments Naming self-compassion backdraft so clients can expect it and feel less afraid. Using hand-over-heart and paced breathing when words are hard. Reframing symptoms as once-useful survival strategies, then building new supports. Embracing imperfection in therapy and life to align with authenticity and values. Who This Episode Supports People in eating disorder recovery who feel stuck in shame or fear that kindness will make them “stop trying.” Clinicians seeking to integrate mindful self-compassion, somatic work, and DBT with behavioral protocols. Rural and farming families who need accessible, culturally aware care options. Neurodivergent folks and anyone navigating sensory overload, perfectionism, or people-pleasing.

Kids spend more time online than ever, and for the most part it feels normal. They're gaming, watching videos, and chatting with friends. But hidden in those same spaces are adults who know how to pose as kids, build trust, and push conversations into dangerous territory. Parents might think it couldn't happen to their child, yet detectives see how quickly an “innocent” interaction can turn into grooming or extortion. That's the world Detective Seth Cockerham works in every day. He's been in law enforcement in Texas for close to a decade, and the last few years have been dedicated to investigating crimes against children. He talks about these cases with both the eye of an investigator and the heart of a parent, because he knows what it's like to raise kids in a world where technology isn't going away. Seth explains how predators move kids off kid-friendly apps into spaces parents can't easily monitor, what behaviors should make families pay attention, and why kids often keep things to themselves. He also shares what has worked in his own home like parental control tools, early conversations about boundaries, and making sure his daughters know they can come to him about anything. At the end of the day, his message is simple: if your child says something feels wrong, take it seriously. Show Notes: [01:07] Seth explains his path into law enforcement and how he moved into child crime investigations. [02:24] Why drowning and neglect cases motivated him to take a deeper role in protecting kids. [04:05] The personal impact of working child abuse cases and balancing it as a parent. [05:30] How predators go where kids are online, from YouTube to gaming platforms with chat features. [07:00] Grooming tactics predators use, often pretending to be the same age to build trust. [07:40] Grooming can escalate in hours or take weeks, with predators moving kids to apps like Snapchat. [10:39] AI filters sometimes detect inappropriate content, but predators still find ways around it. [11:52] Behavioral changes are often the first signs kids are being exploited or manipulated online. [14:10] Why some kids go to police instead of parents and how Seth builds trust with families. [16:47] Most child abuse cases involve someone the child already knows; online cases are often strangers. [18:20] International predators make prosecutions harder, especially in sextortion cases. [21:08] Managing families' expectations when investigations take longer than TV shows portray. [23:55] Fastest time Seth has moved from a report to an arrest in an online case. [24:14] Common traits of perpetrators, often highly tech-savvy with strong knowledge of systems. [26:46] The parental control tools Seth uses at home, including the Bark phone for his kids. [29:30] How to reset boundaries with older kids and use resources like NetSmartz for education. [32:37] Seth's advice to kids: never send selfies to strangers, don't believe threats, tell a trusted adult. [33:39] His warning about sextortion: paying money never works, it only leads to more demands. [36:20] Resources for victims include counseling through advocacy centers and photo removal tools. [37:20] Seth's key takeaway: listen to your kids and take their concerns seriously. Thanks for joining us on Easy Prey.

For many decision scientists, their starting point—drawn from economics—is a quantitative formula called Rational Choice Theory, allowing people to calculate and choose the best options. The problem is that this framework assumes an overly simplistic picture of the world, in which different types of values can be quantified and compared, leading to the “most rational” choice. Behavioral economics acknowledges that irrationality is common but still accepts the underlying belief from economics of what a rational decision should look like.   Drawing from economics, psychology, and philosophy—and both inspired by and challenging Daniel Kahneman's Thinking, Fast and Slow—Barry Schwartz shows how the focus on rationality, narrowly understood, fails to fully describe how we think about our decisions, much less help us make better ones. Barry Schwartz is professor emeritus of psychology at Swarthmore College and visiting professor at Haas School of Business, University of California, Berkeley. His research and writing focus on the intersection of psychology and economics, particularly with regard to decision-making, intrinsic and extrinsic motivation, and the nature of human values. His books include The Paradox of Choice, Why We Work, and (as coauthor) Practical Wisdom. His new book, co-authored with the philosopher Richard Schuldenfrei, is Choose Wisely: Rationality, Ethics, and the Art of Decision-Making.

In this episode of The ADHD Parenting Podcast, hosts Ryan Wexelblatt and Mike McLeod explore what it means to “step into your parental authority.” Drawing from research and clinical experience, they discuss how authoritative parenting—balancing warmth with structure—helps children with ADHD develop self-regulation, emotional safety, and independence. The hosts challenge social media's rebranding of permissive parenting as “gentle” or “compassionate” and explain why consistency, clear expectations, and calm modeling are key. They also tackle the fears many parents have about being “too firm,” offering practical examples of how to set limits with empathy and predictability while nurturing connection and confidence in their children.

Behavioral health was left out of the digital revolution in healthcare; now a $20 million federal initiative is changing that story. In this episode, Talisha Searcy, Senior Advisor within the Assistant Secretary for Technology Policy, and Kacie Kelly, Chief Innovation Officer at the Meadows Mental Health Policy Institute, discuss the Behavioral Health Information Technology Initiative. Talisha explained that BHIT is a $20 million partnership between ASTP and SAMHSA focused on standardizing behavioral health data, advancing EHR adoption, and improving integration with physical health. Kacie highlighted that behavioral health was left out of the HITECH Act, creating long-standing gaps in infrastructure, funding, and data standards that BHIT now aims to address. Talisha emphasized the importance of interoperability and the USCDI+ for behavioral health, with pilots testing real-world data exchange and toolkits to help providers adopt these standards. Both emphasized the importance of collaboration across federal agencies to ensure alignment, as well as opportunities for innovators and the private sector to engage in shaping policies, particularly in areas such as interoperability and AI. Locally, Talisha noted how technology like telehealth is already improving access and care coordination in communities, despite workforce shortages. Tune in to hear from national leaders on how BHIT is setting new standards, driving innovation, and opening doors for providers and innovators in the behavioral health field!

This is The Energy to Heal, your resource for all things Splankna — the faith-based inner healing modality that helps you achieve emotional freedom. In this heartfelt episode, host Laura Milliken sits down with Shayla Huber to explore the powerful intersection of parenting, therapy, and healing from trauma. Together, they discuss the emotional journey of raising a child who struggles deeply with behavioral and emotional regulation, and how therapy brought transformation to their family. Shayla shares her vulnerable story about her son Leroy's healing process — from despair and frustration to breakthrough moments of connection, empathy, and joy. This episode highlights how faith, therapy, and understanding child development can bring new life to family dynamics, creating deeper connection, communication, and emotional growth. It's a story of hope for every parent who has ever felt defeated or unsure — reminding us that love and surrender can lead to transformation. ✨ Key Takeaways: Parenting can often be filled with guilt, shame, and exhaustion. Therapy provides tools, hope, and perspective when parenting feels overwhelming. Emotional struggles in children often have roots in trauma and disconnection. Connection and communication are key to lasting change. Faith and emotional regulation work hand in hand in the healing process. Art, writing, and creativity can be therapeutic outlets for children. Understanding trauma helps parents respond with compassion rather than control. True transformation begins when we learn to see our children the way God sees them. Healing impacts not just the child — but the entire family dynamic. “Jesus changed everything.”

In this episode of the Flex Diet Podcast, I'm diving headfirst into the science of sleep with two heavy hitters—Dr. J Wiles and Dr. Jeff Dermer from Absolute Rest.We cover it all: why sleep is such a big deal from an evolutionary standpoint, how your modern lifestyle is probably trashing it, and what you can actually do to fix it. We dig into behavioral changes, the role of wearables versus legit lab sleep studies, and practical, no-BS strategies to get better shut-eye.Jay Wiles and Jeremy Durmer break down Absolute Rest's comprehensive approach, examining the psychological, physiological, and environmental factors that influence sleep. Translation: it's not just “buy a new pillow and call it good.”We also get into the fun stuff like caffeine, nicotine, and alcohol—how they mess with your recovery and performance—and why making small behavioral shifts and value-based choices can keep your sleep dialed in for the long haul.If you've ever wondered how to stop treating sleep like an optional side quest and instead make it one of your biggest performance enhancers, this one's for you.Sponsors:LMNT electrolyte drink mix: https://drinklmnt.com/Get my free magnesium guide: https://miket.me/magAvailable now:Grab a copy of the Triphasic Training II book I co-wrote with Cal Deitz here.Episode Chapters:06:13 The Importance of Sleep: Evolutionary and Scientific Perspectives11:40 Sleep Deprivation Studies and Their Implications16:54 Unihemispheric Sleep: Can Humans Do It?25:00 Personalized Sleep Needs and Efficiency36:44 Personalized Sleep Assessment37:28 Subjective Experience in Sleep Quality38:20 Comprehensive Sleep Testing38:58 Autonomic Sleep Testing Explained39:32 Behavioral and Psychological Factors41:29 Polysomnography and Its Evolution47:23 Home Sleep Testing Innovations48:14 Cardiopulmonary Coupling and Sleep Quality56:35 Heart Rate Variability and Sleep01:06:44 Behavior Change and Value Systems01:13:50 Struggles with Sleep and Coaching Solutions01:14:27 Blocking Data to Improve Sleep Coaching01:14:58 Empowering Clients to Interpret Sleep Data01:15:41 The Importance of Sleep Regularity01:17:24 Caffeine and Nicotine's Impact on Sleep01:19:07 Genetics and Supplements in Sleep Health01:21:39 Behavioral Changes for Better Sleep01:27:35 Comprehensive Sleep Program Overview01:41:02 Addressing Sleep Issues in Children01:45:00 Podcast Conclusion and Resources Flex Diet Podcasts You May Enjoy: Episode 310: Unpacking the Science of Sleep with Dr. Allison Brager: https://miketnelson.com/episode-310-unpacking-the-science-of-sleep-with-dr-allison-brager/YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fhS0qsF1OHs Episode 283: Unlocking Better Sleep and Stress Reduction with Dr. Dan Cohen of Soltec Health: https://miketnelson.com/episode-283-unlocking-better-sleep-and-stress-reduction-with-dr-dan-cohen-of-soltec-health/YouTube: https://youtu.be/VInoz9ItGfwConnect with Jay and Jeremy:Absolute Rest: https://www.absoluterest.com/Get In Touch with Dr Mike:Instagram: DrmiketnelsonYouTube: @flexdietcertEmail: Miketnelson.com/contact-us

In this data-packed and donor-loving episode of The First Day from The Fundraising School, host Bill Stanczykiewicz, Ed.D., welcomes Mark Rovner, JD, Founder of Sea Change Strategies to uncover the goldmine hidden in plain sight: mid-level donors. Nope, not the cast of that sitcom based in Indiana, but the generous souls giving between $1,000 and $10,000 annually who somehow manage to be both incredibly loyal and woefully neglected. Mark unpacks 12 years of research, including the most recent Missing Middle study, revealing that while mid-level donors represent just 1% of a typical donor file, they generate a whopping 30% of fundraising revenue. So who are these mysterious middle givers? Demographically, they're mostly women, average age 68, overwhelmingly white, and boast net worths north of $1 million. They're twice as likely as average Americans to volunteer, often have multi-decade giving histories, and more than half plan to leave bequests. But here's the kicker: most nonprofits still don't have a formal strategy, or even one staff person, dedicated to nurturing these donors. "There's no playbook," Mark laments, "and that's the problem." Rovner and his team have cracked the mid-level code with a psychographic playbook that splits these donors into three distinct segments: “All Business” (set-it-and-forget-it types), “Hands-On” (already engaged to the hilt), and the coveted “Engagement Seekers” (the folks who actually want more from you, and might even increase their giving if you ask nicely). The trick? Behavioral cues like email open rates, event RSVPs, and a good old-fashioned survey. Bill and Mark wrap things up with a call to action that's part love letter, part strategic roadmap: take stock of your donor pyramid, segment thoughtfully, and assign someone to mid-level stewardship. Because when nurtured properly, these donors don't just stick around, they step up, give more, and even leave a legacy. As Mark puts it, “Stewardship at scale” is the way forward. If you're ready to stop missing the middle, the full report is available for free at Sea Change Strategies. And remember, if you're still chasing only major gifts or blasting your annual fund, you're leaving real money, and meaningful relationships, on the table.

FBI Behavioral Secrets: Robin Dreeke on How Tribalism Created Charlie Kirk's Assassin  In the wake of Charlie Kirk's assassination, the arrest of Tyler Robinson has raised urgent questions: how does a seemingly normal young man radicalize to the point of murder? And why didn't anyone — friends, family, community — stop him sooner? On Hidden Killers Live, retired FBI Special Agent Robin Dreeke delivers a chilling answer: we've lost curiosity. In a culture where tribalism dominates and polarization defines entire generations, people don't listen anymore — they divide, isolate, and double down on rage. And in those echo chambers, violence becomes thinkable. Dreeke shares the FBI's hard-won lessons from interviewing killers and terrorists: you cannot understand someone if you lead with judgment. Curiosity, empathy, and dialogue are not “soft skills” — they are survival tools. They are how agents get confessions. They are how families intervene before tragedy. And they are how society defuses political violence before it explodes. This is not about excusing Robinson's crime. It is about exposing the broken pathways that produced him — and confronting the reality that more young men are walking those same roads right now. Dreeke explains how tribalism feeds itself online, how curiosity can stop radicalization in its tracks, and why America's inability to communicate across divides is fueling its darkest crimes. This is the side of the story you won't hear on cable news. #CharlieKirk #TylerRobinson #FBI #RobinDreeke #HiddenKillers #Tribalism #PoliticalViolence #Dialogue #TrueCrime #Radicalization Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

In this episode, we're joined by David C. Brown, Associate Professor of Finance at the University of Arizona, for a deep dive into the mechanics, performance, and pitfalls of target date funds (TDFs)—the most common investment vehicle in U.S. retirement accounts. David has spent years researching glide paths, benchmarking methods, and industry practices to uncover whether these “set it and forget it” funds actually serve investors well. We unpack why benchmarking TDFs is so difficult, what really drives their underperformance, and how tactical deviations from strategic glide paths often harm investors. David explains how fees, active management, and fund structure combine to create persistent drag—and why dispersion across TDF providers is shockingly wide. We also discuss behavioral challenges, the influence of glide path design, and whether innovations like “indexing the indexers” could improve outcomes. David also shares insights on his side project, the Microsoft Excel Collegiate Challenge, where students compete in gamified problem-solving competitions (yes, Excel on ESPN!), and reflects on his own definition of success. This conversation sheds light on a massively important—but often misunderstood—corner of the retirement landscape, giving investors and plan sponsors practical tools to demand better.   Key Points From This Episode: (0:05:20) What a Qualified Default Investment Alternative (QDIA) is and why TDFs became the default in 2006. (0:05:50) How target date funds work as “one-stop shops” for retirement savings. (0:07:12) The glide path concept: why equity allocations decrease with age. (0:08:04) Why comparing TDFs is hard—fund families design glide paths differently. (0:10:37) David's benchmarking approach: replicating TDFs with index funds. (0:15:13) The performance gap: ~1% annual underperformance versus replicating benchmarks. (0:15:50) Main culprits: higher fees (~55 bps) and poor active management (~45 bps). (0:18:20) Good news: costs have declined—but dispersion across providers remains massive. (0:20:09) Evidence of wild return differences: up to 23% in a single month across vintages. (0:21:32) Why plan sponsors and investors aren't reacting to poor performance. (0:25:33) The debate over optimal glide paths—and why the jury is still out. (0:29:15) Tactical deviations: managers shifting allocations beyond the strategic design. (0:33:06) These tactical moves hurt performance (~10 bps on average). (0:35:49) Evidence of return chasing in TDF management. (0:39:07) Big picture: TDFs are a huge improvement over money market defaults, but dispersion and inefficiency remain. (0:42:48) David's views on Scott Cederberg's 100% equity lifecycle portfolio research. (0:45:22) Behavioral challenges: why defaults and illiquidity may help investors stay the course. (0:50:57) The Microsoft Excel Collegiate Challenge—Excel as an esport. (0:52:50) How David defines success: balance, impact, and growth.

Behavioral finance is often viewed as abstract but it can be a powerful, practical tool for helping clients make better decisions and build lives that align with what matters most. This episode explores how applying behavioral insights and positive psychology can deepen client relationships and drive more meaningful planning conversations. Dr. Daniel Crosby is the Chief Behavioral Officer at Orion, a technology platform serving financial advisors. Listen in as Daniel shares how he's turned complex behavioral concepts into usable advisor tools, including a “money personality” framework and a flourishing goals assessment. We talk about why understanding where clients fall on five key money dimensions - like communication style or spending vs. saving - can help reduce judgment and improve client outcomes, and how identifying gaps between what clients value and how they feel they're doing in life can spark more relevant financial goals. Daniel also reflects on why advisors must examine their own money beliefs and blind spots, and how practicing nonjudgmental listening may be the most powerful behavioral tool of all.
