This episode is unbelievably exciting. Please read that in your very best Lou monotone. (But it is really good!) In today's Saturday Stat, Lou highlights the skills of the best players on the planet. How often, hitting approaches from the fairway at 120 and 180 yards, are they making birdie and bogey? Greg and Mark offer their guesses, and the answers raise yet another question.... Each of these will be a mini-episode (10-15 minutes long) about an interesting golf stat. We will discuss what you can learn, and most importantly, how you can apply this on the golf course to lower your scores and lower your handicap.

Founders don't lose money because they lack intelligence. They lose it because they make emotional decisions under pressure.In this episode of Founder Talk, Alex Sheridan sits down with Dan Tresemer, Managing Partner at OnPath Financial, to break down how founders should actually think when volatility hits. Dan has spent decades stewarding capital for entrepreneurs and business owners, helping guide more than $2 billion through bull markets, crashes, policy shifts, and emotional extremes. This is a founder-to-founder conversation about decision-making, discipline, and long-term perspective—without predictions, hype, or fear-driven narratives.Many founders are strong operators—but struggle when emotions bleed into financial decisions. This episode explores why that happens and how experienced capital stewards counteract it. Dan explains how overconfidence, fear, and short-term thinking quietly erode outcomes, even for highly capable leaders.00:00:00Introduction00:01:21Q: Why does reacting well matter more than predicting markets?A: Because no one can foresee shocks. Durable strategies focus on preparedness and adaptability, not forecasts.00:06:40Q: What role do emotions play in poor founder investment decisions?A: Fear and overconfidence often drive timing mistakes. Most long-term damage comes from emotional reactions, not fundamentals.00:21:12Q: What's a common wealth mistake founders make as their companies scale?A: Overconcentration. Tying too much net worth to one business increases risk, even when growth looks strong.00:30:00Q: How should founders choose a financial advisor they can trust?A: Relationship quality matters more than performance claims. Trust, responsiveness, and alignment drive long-term outcomes.00:36:20Q: Will AI replace financial advisors?A: No. AI enhances efficiency, but human judgment is critical during uncertainty, life changes, and emotional decision points.00:43:40Q: How should founders think about wealth beyond their business exit?A: Wealth creation is multi-generational. Planning for protection and transfer matters as much as building it.Watch the full episode to hear the complete conversation and the nuance behind each decision. This episode is especially relevant for founders navigating growth, scale, or long-term exit planning.Subscribe to Founder Talk for more authentic, no-fluff founder interviews.

In this episode of In Our Defence, Dev Goswami sits down with national security expert Sandeep Unnithan to decode the deal.

Trump didn't just give a speech at Davos — he blew up the board. Within minutes of his remarks, EU leaders paused their own trade deal, called an emergency meeting, and began scrambling to respond to what may become one of the most iconic geopolitical moments of this era: empty chairs behind President Trump as he unveiled his proposed Board of Peace. After $300+ billion in U.S. taxpayer money spent defending Europe, Trump put a simple question to the world:

Nick presents a very special 400th episode in the company of business maestro Ross Tomkins, in which they focus upon the dynamic world of personal and business growth, exploring the intersection of leadership and health.  Ross shares his journey from being a physiotherapist to a successful entrepreneur with a portfolio of 25 companies, stressing the importance of surrounding oneself with a strong team and the challenges of transitioning from hands-on roles to leadership.  They also focus on men's health, where Ross discusses the critical role of testosterone and thyroid hormones in overall well-being, drawing from his personal experiences with low testosterone and the transformative effects of hormone replacement therapy KEY TAKEAWAYS Testosterone and thyroid hormones play crucial roles in men's health, affecting energy levels, mood, and overall well-being. Low levels can lead to symptoms such as fatigue, weight gain, and decreased libido. Before considering hormone replacement therapy, it's essential to explore natural methods to optimise hormone levels, including dietary changes, exercise, and specific supplements like vitamin D, zinc, and omega-3 fatty acids. The shift from active physical jobs to sedentary lifestyles, combined with exposure to endocrine-disrupting chemicals, has contributed to declining testosterone levels in men over the years. Building strong, complementary teams is vital for business success. Effective leaders should seek partners with diverse skill sets and the ability to provide constructive feedback, fostering a culture of collaboration and growth. BEST MOMENTS "What I've always been struck by is this overwhelming almost palpable energy which comes from when you're out and about; it just feels like everyone wants to collaborate." "Normal is a really strange word to use in biochemistry... it just moves down. Normal has actually gotten less and less and less over a year." "The greatest leaders that I've ever worked with have been professionally strong... but they had incredible personal development practices."

What happens when a state stops enforcing the law — and allies refuse to act like allies? ⚠️ In this explosive episode, Tara exposes two crises colliding at once:

How big is the fraud? Bigger than anyone wants to admit.

What's really happening in Minnesota — and why does it matter to the rest of America? ⚠️ In this episode, Tara breaks down explosive claims involving $19 BILLION in alleged fraud, violent street intimidation, and federal officials being chased off while trying to investigate. With no arrests since December, leaked emails suggesting city coordination with protesters, and federal agencies sounding the alarm, Tara explains why Minnesota is being framed as a case study in depolicing, vigilantism, and the collapse of lawful accountability.

Is Trump “crazy” over Greenland — or is this what happens when you finally follow the money?

On this week's live version of Political Breakfast, Democratic strategist Tharon Johnson, Republican strategist Brian Robinson and host Lisa Rayam examine Georgia Governor Brian Kemp's last budget. Kemp laid it all out in his final 'State of the State' address last week, where he also set his priorities at the start of the legislative session. His budget includes a billion in tax rebates for Georgians, a 20-point reduction of the state income tax, a two thousand dollar check for teachers and other state employees and a new need-based scholarship for those attending Georgia colleges and universities. It also includes nearly 2 billion for new toll lanes on I-75 south of Atlanta, to unclog the interstate, and more money for money for new interchanges on Georgia 316 and local road projects.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Thirty to fifty percent of your fraud losses don't come from hackers or organized crime rings. They come from your own customers disputing legitimate transactions under their own names. This is first-party fraud, and it's a $100 billion problem that most financial institutions don't even track as a separate category. While banks use advanced tools to detect external fraudsters, their own account holders are taking advantage of long-standing dispute processes meant to protect consumers, turning chargebacks into weapons against the very institutions that serve them. The math is staggering: this single category now accounts for up to half of all fraud losses and keeps accelerating while most executives stay focused on threats from outside their customer base. Joining me on the Banking Transformed podcast is Shanthi Shanmugam, CEO of Casap, who developed products at Robinhood and Chime before founding a company to address this crisis. We're going to examine why first-party fraud has surged, how manual dispute processes enable it, and what essential changes are needed to transform this hidden vulnerability into a competitive edge.

In this episode, I sit down with the man who is on a mission to completely dismantle the way we think about modern medicine. Aidan Dewar is the Co-Founder and CEO of Nourish, and he believes that the healthcare industry has been ignoring the single most powerful tool for human longevity: what we put on our plates.We live in a world where we treat sickness rather than preventing it. In this conversation, Aidan exposes the cracks in the insurance system, reveals why "food as medicine" isn't just a buzzword but a biological reality, and shares the brutally honest lessons he learned while building a company that is fighting to make nutritional care accessible to every single American.We discuss the hidden crisis in our diets, the psychology of eating, and how to build a business that actually changes lives.Who is Aidan Dewar? Aidan Dewar is a healthcare disruptor and the CEO of Nourish. After witnessing the inefficiencies of the traditional medical system, he co-founded Nourish to bridge the gap between patients and registered dietitians. His goal is simple but revolutionary: to make evidence-based nutrition a standard part of healthcare for everyone, regardless of their background.

LA County just raised sales tax to fund $1.1 billion for homelessness—and now they're slashing $219 million from those same programs. You can't make this up. With 72,000 homeless people (nearly 10% of the entire U.S. homeless population), LA has perfected the art of building the homeless industrial complex and watching them come. We break down the budget crisis, the 46% increase in shelter bed costs (seriously, what are they buying?), and why cutting funding might actually reduce homelessness more than throwing billions at it. Plus, we compare LA's approach to Seattle's new socialist mayor who just cancelled encampment sweeps—because that worked so well during the pandemic, right? Spoiler alert: If you build it, they will come. If you don't... they'll migrate to the next city with better perks. Is this the most expensive failure in government history, or just another day in California? What do you think happens when the 2028 Olympics roll into town?

Jason and Michael Zuber explore how artificial intelligence and humanoid robotics are poised to trigger a massive era of global prosperity. They discuss predictions from tech leaders that automation will soon collapse the cost of services, potentially replacing universal basic income with "universal high income" as living standards rise. While they acknowledge significant job displacement, they argue that human nature will always innovate new desires and industries, such as the growing alternative collectible market. They emphasize that as technology creates more disposable income, the demand for physical real estate and rare assets will likely intensify. Ultimately, they view this transition as a final opportunity to build generational wealth before the fundamental nature of money and labor is permanently altered. #GenerationalWealth #ArtificialIntelligence #ElonMusk #HumanoidRobots #TechnoOptimism #UniversalHighIncome #FutureOfEconomy #JobAutomation #RealEstateInvesting #ServiceDeflation #WealthConcentration #SiliconValley #PhysicalScarcity #RareCollectibles #EconomicAlchemy #StandardOfLiving #UniversalBasicIncome #AssetProtection #HumanCondition #AmericanDream   Key Takeaways: 0:00 8 Billion humanoids 12:20 Work still has meaning.

There are moments when power hesitates — not because it's confused, and not because it's honest — but because it assumes it no longer has to explain itself.This episode of Boiler Room examines that moment.Broadcast live from Central Texas, host Bryan “Hesher” McClain is joined by Adam “Ruckus” Clark for a long-form breakdown of a week defined by narrative overreach, information saturation, and the growing difficulty of separating signal from psychological operations.From escalating rhetoric surrounding Iran and unverifiable reports of mass casualties, to the quiet normalization of AI integration into military systems, to domestic crowd-control preparations and raw political optics caught on camera, the discussion traces a single through-line: modern propaganda no longer collapses cleanly — it blinks.When credibility becomes collateral damage, saturation replaces persuasion, and consent is assumed rather than earned, the cracks begin to show.Topics covered include:Escalation narratives and information warfare surrounding IranViral imagery, casualty claims, and the credibility gap between speed and verificationGrok and the normalization of AI inside military and classified networksTechnocracy, dual-use technology, and the consolidation of powerNational Guard “response forces,” civil unrest planning, and historical precedentMedia degradation, AI-generated deception, and epistemic collapsePolitical optics unraveling in unscripted momentsDisaster narratives, pattern recognition, and the limits of skepticismThis episode is not about debunking individual headlines — it's about recognizing patterns of behavior when authority stops whispering and starts rushing.Boiler Room remains a space for critical analysis, open-source scrutiny, and conversations that resist narrative management — especially when the information environment itself is unstable.Reference Links:Ice Breaker: Matt Damon Says Netflix Wants Plots Reiterated “Three or Four Times in the Dialogue” for Phone-Distracted ViewersPentagon taps Elon Musk's AI “Grok” for military useUS Taxpayers will pay $83 BILLION to build Venezuela's oil infrastructure to benefit oil companies & Israeli billionairesThe allegedly siezed Starlink gear (Iran)Trump got pissed off at heckler with legitimate grievance and gave him the birdTrump's new defense plan quietly creates a National Guard “response force” trained for crowd control and civil unrestDavid Icke on “Wildfires Currently Raging in Argentina's Patagonia Region Could Be A 15-Minute City Arson Job Similar to Malibu and Maui”Can't Trust the internet anymore – Real time AI Deep Fake tech improves to the point of practically indistinguishable Support:Support BOILER ROOM & ACRPatreon (Join and become a member)Shop BOILER ROOM Merch Store

This week on the Jay Pitts Show, we're breaking down some major developments that could impact the real estate and mortgage markets heading into 2026.We start with President Trump instructing his “representatives” to purchase $200 billion in mortgage-backed securities—what that actually means, why it matters, and how moves like this can influence interest rates, housing affordability, and overall market sentiment.Next, we dive into the new FinCEN requirements for home buyers taking effect March 1. We'll explain what's changing, who it applies to, and why buyers—and agents—need to be aware of these new reporting and transparency rules before getting under contract.And to wrap things up, we get into our weekly wins and fails, from wisdom teeth removal to ghosts and more!Submit your questions for Jay and Ryan to answer on the podcast here!
