BT and Sal open their show celebrating the New York Mets' recent offensive surge, particularly from their "Big Three" of Lindor, Soto, and Alonso, which is finally reflecting the formidable lineup they were designed to be at the season's start. They highlight the team's stabilized pitching rotation with the return of Senga and Manaea, fostering a new sense of hope and positivity around the club after a period of struggles. While acknowledging the need for potential further additions, especially a bullpen arm or a center fielder, the hosts emphasize that the top of the Mets' order is now clicking, making them a dangerous team built to contend for a World Series.
BT and Sal, scrutinize the Mets' recent offensive surge and pitching concerns, debating whether they need another big bat or more arms to contend with powerhouses like the Dodgers. They also dissect the Yankees' potential trade moves, fueled by unexpected player pull-backs and ongoing third base discussions. The Knicks' controversial Mike Brown hiring remains a hot topic, with the hosts questioning his championship pedigree and the implications of his top assistant opting out. The hour is packed with listener calls, sparking heated debates on team needs, player values, and the overall direction of New York's beloved franchises.
BT and Sal kick off their show with an electric discussion centered around the New York Mets' exhilarating come-from-behind victory, their biggest of the season, fueled by a late-game surge from the "Big Three" of Lindor, Soto, and Alonso. While Sal expresses unwavering faith in the offensive firepower of the top of the lineup and the imminent return of key pitchers like Senga and Manaea as reasons for optimism and World Series contention, BT remains a skeptical, fiery voice, demanding a significant, proactive trade for another bat and expressing concerns about the bottom of the order and the long-term sustainability of the current pitching staff. The debate highlights the contrasting views on the Mets' true potential, setting a high-stakes tone for their championship aspirations.
Is the Mets' "Big Three" of Juan Soto, Francisco Lindor, and Pete Alonso enough to win it all, or do they desperately need another big bat? Sal's convinced the pitching staff can't carry them, especially with Clay Holmes hitting an alarming innings limit that could spell disaster! And speaking of disasters, the Yankees' decision to shove DJ LeMahieu to the bench has BT fuming, demanding the washed-up infielder be DFA'd immediately. But the fireworks truly ignite when they dissect Mike Brown's introductory press conference as the new Knicks head coach. BT rips into Brown's "word salad" and "coach speak," declaring him an uninspiring hire, while Sal argues his offensive prowess and fresh energy are exactly what the Knicks need. Plus, Juan Soto's jaw-dropping comments about All-Star money will leave you speechless! You won't want to miss this no-holds-barred discussion that's guaranteed to have you yelling at your radio!

Show Notes: Brian Stollery talks about AlphaSense, an information provider that independent consultants and boutique firms are using to gain an edge over those who rely on chat GPT or consumer LLM tools. AlphaSense is built for this kind of work, pulling in verified content such as industry reports, broker research filings, earnings calls, expert calls, news, and internal research and internal content. It layers this with market-leading AI functionality that can read and synthesize all of it to deliver consulting-grade insights at scale. AlphaSense Explained Brian clarifies that AlphaSense is not primarily an expert network like AlphaSights, but rather a market company and enterprise intelligence search engine for the AI generation. It offers the depth and breadth of authoritative data that would be obtained from a legacy research platform with the intuitive user experience of modern AI tools. The value of AlphaSense lies in the deep, authoritative content set that is the foundation of AlphaSense, along with the speed and accuracy of the AI that allows users to quickly surface relevant insights. Brian also talks about the major categories of sources of proprietary information that feed into AlphaSense. The AlphaSense Platform The AlphaSense platform features an index where users can go to different things, such as portfolio monitors, research topics, expert insights, news, risk signals on consumer tech growth investment strategy, events, company documents, and talent job executive movements. The dashboard includes eight or nine widgets that provide a list of seven or eight articles on various topics. These articles are sourced from various sources, such as news articles or interviews with experts. The platform also has over 200,000 free recorded, transcribed expert calls, which are added to the library for analysis by the AI. How AlphaSense Gathers Information The interviewers are usually conducted by-side analysts, corporate users, and experts in respective fields. They work with corporate development teams and head of corporate strategy to conduct these interviews. The platform believes that a rising tide lifts all boats, and every expert call that happens throughout the AlphaSense is published back in the platform to further enhance and grow its library of expert calls from subject matter experts who are currently active in their industry. AlphaSense Use Cases In management consulting, AlphaSense may not be suitable for calls that would be better suited to AlphaSights where the information is sensitive or should have restricted access. However, the use case for AlphaSense is for commercial due diligence for private equity, where it allows users to get up to speed for engagement and quickly search across benchmark expert perspectives. This allows them to bolster their expertise within the management consulting space. AlphaSense is an institutional grade content engine that consolidates information from various sources, including expert calls, news, research reports, broker research, and more. It offers over 6000 vetted business and market news sources and trade journals, most of which require paywalls. AlphaSense allows users to bypass these paywalls and provides real-time insights from over 700 partners. The AlphaSense Dashboard The dashboard includes relevant documents related to executive movements, risk signals, growth, and investment strategies. Users can explore the dashboard by searching for trigger words related to their watchlist of consumer tech companies. The AI can then pull relevant documents, such as expert insights, event transcripts, press releases, and news, to provide valuable insights for business development or due diligence. The Executive Search Function The document search module within AlphaSense allows users to get forensic insights from relevant documents, such as executive search, talent, and hiring practices. The AI can also generate summary responses, which are useful for top-tier consulting use cases. However, the AI may sometimes make a guess or hallucination if an answer is not available. This is why the Big Three and Big Four rely on AlphaSense for their consulting use cases. The AlphaSense Research Tool The AlphaSense generative search tool is a research analyst team in a box. The tool is designed to answer macro business questions, such as market size or pricing trends. Brian checks McKinsey, Bain and BCG's performance in 2025, including their revenue, talent, hiring, and growth areas. The AI agent breaks down these questions into subquestions and finds 3000 documents across the content library. It then extracts documents from expert calls, press releases, investor relations presentations, research reports, and sustainability reports. The AI outputs a summary of the documents. The tool is particularly useful for understanding the performance of consulting firms like McKinsey Bain and BCG. Quality Sources and Quantitative Data AlphaSense provides bullet points on McKinsey, revenue, growth, talent, and hiring, with links to expert calls and other sources of data. The AI outputs are deep linked and cited to the source, ensuring accuracy. For instance, McKinsey Sciences for Growth, a 2025 focus, integrates tech-enabled capabilities and AI. BCG reported $13.5 billion in 2024 revenue, achieving 10% global growth and expanding its workforce to 33,000 employees. AlphaSense also has sentence-level citations, ensuring every sentence is deep linked and cited to its source. AlphaSense uses various models from partners like open AI, sonnet four, and Gemini 2.5, all grounded in high-quality, relevant documents. The tool's intelligence selects the best model based on the use case, whether it's reasoning-based or quantitative or qualitative. The AI is a comprehensive market-leading library of authoritative content that consultants care about. Modes of Research and Meeting Prep for Management Consultants Brian shares the typical use cases for management consultants using generative search platforms. He highlights two modes: think longer and deep research. Brian used generative search to prepare for a meeting with a client at a mid-sized consulting firm, focusing on digital strategy. The AI summarized transcripts, expert calls, earnings calls, and press releases from iHeart, highlighting the company's focus on technology, digitization, and AI-enabled automation as the key to cost savings and digital revenue acceleration. The platform also offers an iPhone app for on-the-go access to insights. The AI analyzed bullet points and planned insights on every section, creating a comprehensive competitive intelligence report. The report includes chatter on core service offerings, engagement models, pricing structures, sector specialization, news partnerships, partnerships, and tech bets. AlphaSense's Generative Grid Brian talks about using AlphaSense's generative grid, which is a generative AI-powered spreadsheet to aggregate documents and interrogate them. This is useful for tracking executive compensation and performance components for target accounts. The grid allows consulting users to analyze past performance and understand the current climate. Another use case is connecting consulting, transformation, and strategic advisory services to key performance indicators, such as free cash flow, human capital, strategic objectives, or EBITDA. By attaching value drivers directly to performance components, consultants can focus on adjusted EBITDA growth, cost optimization, Target, discover integration execution drive, adjusted ROTC, and revenue growth tied to executive compensation. AlphaSense for Understanding Business Development Brian explains that the use cases and projects of consultants using AlphaSense vary, but one major use case is business development understanding. It helps in identifying companies' propensity for M&A or divestitures, such as changes in management or new strategic initiatives. AlphaSense also offers a deal scanner for M&A consultants looking at acquisitions or private equity deals across a portfolio of companies or industries. It also provides due diligence services, such as meeting prep, company research, trend analysis, market assessment, client benchmarking, and sentiment analysis. Alpha Sense's Access to Information Providers AlphaSense has access to SEC filings, newspapers, trade journals, investment bank coverage, and reports. AlphaSense also has access to other information providers like CrunchBase, capital, IQ, and Pitch Book. The Venn diagram highlights the overlap of information between AlphaSense and other information providers, such as CrunchBase, Morningstar, and CrunchBase. If a company's revenue or employee count is in CrunchBase, it can be accessed via AlphaSense. Alpha Sense vs. Capital IQ The conversation turns to the differences between AlphaSense and Capital IQ, a financial reporting platform. AlphaSense is an end-to-end intelligence engine that provides access to investment banking reports, but it requires downloading them one by one. It is not possible to search across all content sets at once. Capital IQ, on the other hand, offers valuable structured data, is great for downloading Industry Reports, and is a strategic database of financials and filings. It is also useful for importing statistical or financial models into Excel. AlphaSense, on the other hand, is an end-to-end intelligence engine that provides decision-ready insights across billions of data points.

Life in the Peloton is proudly brought to you by MAAP You can also watch this episode over on my YouTube channel here! We're coming to the end of June, and in the world of cycling, that can only mean one thing…it's almost time for the Tour! It's all been leading up to this - the biggest bike race of the year. I've got my old mates Tom Southam and Luke Durbridge back on The Race Communique to help me preview this massive race and, oh boy, it's set to be an absolute banger. Durbo kicks off this month with PeloChat, where he takes us through his TrainingPeaks data from the Tour de Suisse so we can see just how hard the racing is these days. I've said it before, and I'll say it again - I am so glad I retired when I did; oh my god, the racing is just so brutal in 2025! Some of these numbers are crazy! And hey, Durbs, we all saw you splitting the bunch up with 70k to go on stage 1, so don't you start complaining about how tough it is out there these days… Before the Tour de Suisse, of course, we had the mini Tour de France - the Critérium du Dauphiné. This is where we saw ‘The Big Three' go toe to toe (to toe) with each other. Remco, Jonas, and - of course - Pogi. It was an amazing race, and Tadej came out looking absolutely dominant, but there was a pretty big question mark over his form after a quite frankly pathetic 4th place after the time trial. We know Jonas is still on the comeback trail from his crash back in Paris Nice, so with another few weeks of solid recovery, I think we're in for an absolutely massive battle this July. After we discussed the warm-up races, we got stuck into our massive Tour de France preview. We discuss everything - the stages, the riders, the moments that are going to define this year's race. An absolutely chaotic looking first 10 days around Northern France with tonnes of opportunity for an aggressive rider to take shed loads of time, an absolutely brutal end to the race in the mountains (stage 18 - holy sh*t!), a new finish circuit around Paris to make sure there's excitement all the way to the line, and heaps more! You're not going to want to miss a single second of this race. We all pick a rider or two to discuss, so make sure you tune in if you want to hear what Southam thinks of Carapaz and what really went down on that infamous Colle Delle Finestere stage at the Giro! Durbo lifts the lid on how Aussie favourite and recent guest on Life In The Peloton is going to take on the GC in a bid for a top 5 finish. Next, we get into talking some tactics with Tom. This month's theme is simple: wind. Southam breaks down how teams can use echelons to break up the race and try and catch the big favourites off guard. As always, we wrap up with the Communiquiz. Durbo's leading the way this time with 7 quickfire questions about the Tour de France. Guys, I hope this ep gets you as excited for the Tour as I am. Crack open a weak French beer, have a nibble on a baguette, sit back, relax, and enjoy! Cheers, Mitch The Race Communiqué is brought to you by TrainingPeaks!

Munaf Manji and Mackenzie Rivers break down NBA Game 7. Best bets as always. The podcast episode of RJ Bell's Dream Preview hosted by Munaf Manji and Mackenzie Rivers dives into the upcoming NBA Finals Game 7 between the Indiana Pacers and the Oklahoma City Thunder, focusing on Game 6 recap, player and team statistics, Game 7 historical trends, and predictions. Munaf begins by acknowledging the unexpected extension to Game 7, joking that rapper Drake may be responsible after placing a massive bet on the Thunder in Game 6. Mackenzie reflects on his incorrect prediction and credits Indiana's resilience, noting they've consistently defied expectations. In Game 6, the Pacers delivered a balanced team performance. Tyrese Halliburton, playing through injury, contributed 14 points and 5 assists in 23 minutes. Four starters reached double figures, while Obi Toppin scored 20 off the bench. TJ McConnell added 12 points, 9 rebounds, and 6 assists. The Thunder, in contrast, had a dismal shooting night, hitting only 8 of 30 from three-point range, with starters going 1 for 13. They managed just 91 points, their lowest of the season. Defensively, the Pacers adjusted from full-court pressure in Game 4 to a more strategic, trap-heavy defense in Game 6. Mackenzie compares McConnell's impact to J.J. Barea in 2011, praising Rick Carlisle's coaching and noting that he's achieved more with less than most NBA coaches. Munaf suggests Carlisle's legacy could be cemented with a second improbable championship, citing his 2011 win over Miami's Big Three. Looking at Game 7, the Thunder are favored by 7.5 points with a total of 214.5. Historical trends support a close contest: since 2002, 62% of Game 7s have gone under the total, with average victory margins at just 6.9 points. Of the past ten NBA Finals Game 7s, only one had a margin over 7.5. Munaf notes that OKC's strong home record and MVP-caliber season from Shai Gilgeous-Alexander (SGA) bring added pressure, while Indiana is seen as playing with house money. Mackenzie believes the Thunder's legacy burden may weigh heavier on SGA than any player, contrasting Halliburton's low-risk, high-reward scenario. Referee influence, especially the likely assignment of Scott Foster, could shape the game. Foster is known for calling more fouls and previously officiated two Finals Game 7s, including the 2010 Celtics-Lakers game where LA shot 37 free throws. Munaf warns that if Foster is officiating, foul counts may spike. Both hosts back the Pacers +7.5 as their best bet. They emphasize Indiana's ability to stay within striking distance, citing the last four Finals teams that forced Game 7s after trailing 3–2 all won the title. Regarding props, Munaf favors Pascal Siakam's rebound over (7.5), noting consistent double-digit boards and high minutes. SGA and Caruso are tipped to exceed 2.5 combined steals and blocks, given the high-pressure context. Mackenzie leans under on Halliburton's 15.5 point line, which is near season-low, but suggests parlaying Halliburton overs with a Pacers win if expecting an upset. In closing, the hosts predict a tight, gritty Game 7 in line with NBA history. Both expect Indiana to cover and potentially win, citing momentum, strategic flexibility, and psychological freedom versus the high stakes confronting OKC. Learn more about your ad choices.

Send us a textWhen celebrities fall from grace, the aftermath is rarely simple. In this raw, unfiltered conversation, we navigate the troubling sexual assault allegations against Tyler Perry, examining leaked text messages that paint a disturbing picture of persistent unwanted advances despite clear rejection. The predatory nature of these exchanges raises serious questions about power dynamics in Hollywood and how religious public personas often mask private behavior.Our conversation shifts to a pattern we've noticed among certain Black male celebrities who exclusively date white partners. From Jerrod Carmichael to Kaytranada, we question whether these preferences reflect genuine attraction or something deeper—perhaps an unconscious desire to "violate the oppressor" through intimate relationships. It's a complicated, sometimes uncomfortable exploration of how colonialism and power dynamics infiltrate even our most personal choices.The tension between representation and reality surfaces again when we discuss the recent fights at Ice Cube's Big Three basketball league. When Black athletes like Dwight Howard and Lance Stephenson clash publicly in Black-owned spaces, what responsibility do they have to their community? We examine how these incidents affect perception while acknowledging the complex personal histories that fuel these confrontations.Between these heavier topics, we share a glimpse into our own relationship as we debate a potential move to New York. The dynamic between Southern comfort and big city ambition becomes a metaphor for compromise and growth in partnerships. This personal thread weaves throughout our discussion of Memphis, where Stephen A. Smith's comments about crime statistics reveal how easily conversations about Black cities can ignore systemic issues and generational poverty.Finally, we pull back the curtain on America's foreign policy as Israel launches attacks on Iran. Beyond the headlines lies a complex web of oil politics, proxy wars, and global control that affects us all.

En este episodio hablamos sin filtro sobre varios de los temas más calientes del baloncesto actual. Empezamos recordando los travels que le cantaban a Allen Iverson y cómo en la NBA del pasado no se pudiera jugar por las reglas. Hablamos de cómo ha cambiado la forma de construir equipos en la NBA. Hoy no basta con tener 1 o 2 estrellas: necesitas profundidad, defensa, inteligencia táctica y jugadores de rol que respondan en momentos grandes. El modelo de “Big Three” ya no garantiza campeonatos.También entramos en el gran problema económico que enfrentan los Boston Celtics, que posiblemente tendrán que salir de uno de sus titulares. El dilema es que nadie quiere las “sobras” de Porzingis, con ese contrato alto y el poco tiempo que pasa en cancha.Por otro lado, analizamos el panorama para Kevin Durant: ¿Debería regresar a Golden State o empezar de cero con los Spurs y convertirse en la pieza que los lleve a lo más alto? Lo mismo con Giannis Antetokounmpo: ¿le conviene mudarse a una ciudad grande o convertirse en el líder de un equipo joven que aspire a las Finales?Además, hablamos del drama en los New York Knicks, el despido del coach, y quién debe tomar las riendas. Tocamos la diferencia entre cómo se construyen los equipos contendores hoy en día y cerramos con una actualización sólida del BSN. Un episodio cargado de opinión, nostalgia, análisis y fuego.

American healthcare is in crisis—but what if we could change the system by preventing disease before it starts?In this episode of the a16z Podcast, general partner Vijay Pande sits down with Dr. Eric Topol, founder and director of the Scripps Research Translational Institute and one of the most cited researchers in medicine, to explore the cutting edge of preventive healthcare and longevity science.Drawing from his new book Super Agers: An Evidence-Based Path to Longevity, Topol breaks down why understanding the biology of aging—not reversing it—is the key to preventing the “Big Three” age-related diseases: cancer, cardiovascular disease, and neurodegenerative conditions. The conversation spans AI-powered risk prediction, organ clocks, polygenic risk scores, GLP-1s, and the cultural and economic shifts required to move from a “sick care” system to one rooted in precision prevention and extended healthspan.If you've ever wondered how data, personalized medicine, and AI can add seven healthy years to your life—and what it will take to bring those benefits to everyone—this episode is for you.
