The U.S. Supreme Court is set to hear a crucial case that could allow the federal government to indefinitely detain undocumented immigrants without the chance for a bond hearing. At the center of the lawsuit is Ricardo Aparecido Barbosa da Cunha, a 20-year U.S. resident, business owner, and father of two with no criminal record, who was denied a bond hearing after being arrested by ICE on his way to work. In this video, we break down the legal, financial, and human realities behind the push for mandatory detention:
EPISODE DESCRIPTION In this episode, I sit down with Denis from Humea , a product and research company that has catalyzed over $1 billion in ARR for their clients. We go deep on what it actually takes to achieve product market fit, and why most founders are looking in completely the wrong direction. Denis brings a rare dual background in physics and psychology, and he uses it to reveal how human behavior , not technology , is the real driver behind whether a product succeeds or dies. We talk about why Web3 is uniquely challenging because money arrives before product market fit, the hidden psychology of why founders resist pivoting, how Doordash generated over $300 million in additional revenue through better user understanding, what blockchain banks must do to win trust, and why simplifying your message for non-technical decision makers might be the most valuable thing you do this year. Whether you are building in DeFi, fintech, AI, or SaaS, the principles Denis shares here are universal and immediately actionable.

Most people spend their lives trying to avoid mistakes, but restaurateur Danny Meyer, the visionary behind Shake Shack and Union Square Hospitality Group, believes that failure is actually the greatest teacher we have. In this moving conversation from Making Space with Hoda Kotb, Danny Meyer pulls back the curtain on the hardest moments of his career and what it takes to bounce back when everything falls apart. He and Hoda explore his new memoir, What Could Possibly Go Right?, discussing why putting your employees first, trusting your gut, and asking the right question can completely change your life.

Send us Fan MailThis one starts with Robby's decade-old headset finally showing its age before we get into remote-job hunting, whether $60–70K is enough to justify going back to full-time work, Ian's abandoned shirt-business dreams, and the point where making more money stops being worth giving up your free time. Robby considers going back to the kitchen, we discover the podcast's greatest power is simply bleeping somebody's name and making everyone wonder if we were talking about them, and Billy becomes the guy who just says whatever everyone else is thinking. Then a neighbour gets a Sonic pinball machine delivered and somehow that turns into an entire billion-dollar lottery plan: buy every house in the neighbourhood, move all your friends to Texas, make everyone sign NDAs, build a car hangar and grotto, and turn the spare houses into Airbnbs. Naturally, we finish by talking about Hobbit houses and Robby desperately waiting to play an undead paladin. Support the show

How to Trade Stocks and Options Podcast by 10minutestocktrader.com
Are you looking to save time, make money, and start winning with less risk? Then head to https://www.ovtlyr.com.Learn more about OVTLYR: https://youtu.be/TUCbD5KovlcWhat if you could get roughly 90% less capital exposure while still capturing much of a stock's movement?That's the idea behind deep in-the-money call options, and Meta (META) provides the real-world example in this video. Instead of spending $75,000 to buy 100 shares of Meta, we look at how an approximately 80 delta call can provide substantial exposure to the stock while requiring dramatically less capital upfront.But there's much more to this strategy than simply buying an option because it is cheaper.The key is understanding delta.Delta tells you how much an option's price should move for approximately every $1 move in the underlying stock. An 80 delta call, for example, should move roughly $0.80 for every $1 move in the stock, while a 20 delta call moves much less.Delta also provides an estimate of the probability that an option will finish in the money at expiration. That makes it an important consideration when comparing deep ITM options, at-the-money options, and out-of-the-money options.Then we get into one of the biggest reasons I prefer deep in-the-money calls: intrinsic value versus extrinsic value.Extrinsic value decays as time passes. Every day that goes by moves that portion of an option's value closer to zero. Out-of-the-money options can be made up entirely of extrinsic value, meaning time decay is working against essentially the entire investment.Deep ITM options are different. A much larger portion of their price comes from intrinsic value, which can significantly reduce the impact of time decay and implied volatility on the overall position.That's where the concept of capital efficiency comes in.Using the Meta example, controlling stock exposure with an 80 delta call can require only a fraction of the capital needed to purchase the shares outright. That leaves more capital available for other trades, while still providing leveraged exposure to the underlying stock.But leverage cuts both ways.Options can magnify gains, but they can also magnify losses. Liquidity matters enormously, especially open interest and bid-ask spreads. An option with poor liquidity can cost you a significant amount simply to enter and exit the position.We also look at convexity, which describes how an option's sensitivity to the underlying stock changes as the stock price moves. An 80 delta option won't necessarily remain an 80 delta option. As the stock moves, the option's delta changes too.That's what makes this strategy so interesting for traders who understand how options actually work.The goal isn't to buy the cheapest option available. It's to choose an option with a risk profile that makes sense for the trade.✅ Deep in-the-money call options and 80 delta✅ How delta works and why it matters✅ Intrinsic value vs. extrinsic value and time decay✅ How options can create capital efficiency✅ Meta (META), leverage, liquidity, open interest, and convexityIf you've ever looked at a $700+ stock and thought, “There's no way I can afford 100 shares,” this strategy is worth understanding. Options can provide another way to gain stock exposure, but choosing the right strike and understanding the risks is critical.Subscribe to OVTLYR for disciplined trading strategies that actually make sense.
Saskatoon residents are being asked to weigh in on a major proposed entertainment and events district, known as the DEED project. Ken Wood, former CEO of SaskPlace and the Credit Union Centre, and a group of volunteers have 90 days to collect about 30,000 signatures to meet their goal of stopping the billion-dollar project in its tracks. He joins Brent to discuss the petition campaign and what he thinks residents should consider.
The 2026 launch and technical architecture of Meta's Muse ecosystem, a shift from open-source models toward natively agentic AI. The platform is powered by the Muse Spark model family, which utilizes parallel multi-agent inference and thought compression to execute complex, long-term tasks autonomously. To ensure safety, Meta utilizes the Muse Secure VM and an independent oversight system called Sentinel to manage credentials and sandbox execution. While benchmark data shows strong performance in multimodal reasoning and coding, reports highlight significant privacy concerns regarding unauthorized data access. The ecosystem is currently available as a freemium consumer product in the United States, offering specialized tiers for high-volume token usage. Collectively, the documents provide a comprehensive overview of the strategic pivot toward persistent, background-executing AI agents.
10 % Chance auf Auslöschung – Anthropics Rücktritt, Börsengang und die Frage dahinter geplant Ein Anthropic-Forscher tritt öffentlich zurück und nennt 10 % Auslöschungswahrscheinlichkeit bis 2030 – der Post geht in einem Tag auf 100 Millionen Aufrufe. TJ analysiert, was hinter dem Rücktritt steckt: echte Angst, strategisches Kalkül oder PR-Feuerwerk kurz vor Anthropics Börsengang mit angestrebten 2 Billionen Dollar Bewertung. Wer die Verflechtungen zwischen Musk, Altman und Amodei kennt, sieht das Bild klarer. Ein Rücktritt, 100 Millionen Aufrufe – und kein Podcast, der schweigt Jacob Coxon hatte auf seinem X-Account noch nie gepostet. Dann trat er öffentlich bei Anthropic zurück – und sein Post erreichte innerhalb eines einzigen Tages über 100 Millionen Aufrufe. TJ beschreibt, dass es in diesem Moment kaum einen Podcast gab, der das Thema nicht aufgriff. Das ist ungewöhnlich. Rücktritte passieren ständig. Dieser hat das Machtgefüge der gesamten KI-Branche sichtbar erschüttert – und laut TJ stehen wir erst am Anfang dieser Debatte. Der Vorwurf von Coxon: Die führenden KI-Labore, darunter Anthropic und OpenAI, verzocken unser aller Leben, weil sie ungebremst auf selbstverbessernde Systeme zurasen. 10 % – und dann legt ein Anthropic-Insider nach Coxon nennt eine 10-prozentige Chance, dass es bis Ende dieser Dekade, also bis 2030, das war mit der Menschheit. Vier Jahre. Was diese Zahl noch schwerer macht: Evan Hubinger, bei Anthropic intern für die Ausrichtung der KI verantwortlich, springt kurz darauf ebenfalls an die Öffentlichkeit und sagt wörtlich, er persönlich sehe die Wahrscheinlichkeit, dass KI die Menschheit auslöscht, bei über 10 Prozent. TJ hebt hervor, wie ungewöhnlich das ist. Normalerweise sprechen in diesen Firmen nur die Chefs. Dass jemand aus der zweiten oder dritten Reihe eine solche Aussage öffentlich macht, ist ein Signal – nur unklar, welches genau. Dario Amodeis Essay: Bremsen, nicht stoppen Einen Tag nach Hubingers Aussage meldete sich CEO Dario Amodei mit einem Essay zu Wort: *We must pace the Frontier*. Sein Kernargument: nicht stoppen, aber das Tempo bewusst reduzieren, damit die Sicherheit mithalten kann. Er legte einen Drei-Stufen-Plan vor – unabhängige Prüfer mit Modellzugang, Koordination demokratischer Staaten und globale Absprachen bei gefährlichen Fähigkeiten. Kurz darauf sagte Sam Altman seinen IPO ab. Und dann sprang ausgerechnet Elon Musk öffentlich hinter Amodei. TJ ordnet ein, warum das alles andere als selbstlos ist – und warum die Reihenfolge dieser Ereignisse zu denken gibt. Musks 1,5 Milliarden monatlich – und die Abhängigkeit, die er nicht nennt Musk verdient laut TJ 1,5 Milliarden Euro monatlich daran, dass er Anthropic eines der größten Rechenzentren Amerikas vermietet – Kolossus 1. Gleichzeitig ist er auf Anthropics Modell angewiesen, weil OpenAI sein Modell von der Entwicklungsplattform Cursor zurückgezogen hat. Cursor, das Musk für rund 60 Milliarden gekauft hat, braucht ein starkes Coding-Modell – und das kommt aktuell von Anthropic. Wenn Musk also öffentlich hinter Amodei steht, obwohl beide eigentlich Wettbewerber sind, gibt es dafür handfeste wirtschaftliche Gründe. TJ hat Musk bereits vor Monaten in einem knapp zweistündigen Interview beim *Economist* gehört, in dem Musk andeutete, dass ein gewisses Risiko für die Menschheit bestehe. Fazit: Echte Sorge, Marketing oder Machtspiel – die Frage bleibt offen Was all das zusammenbringt, ist Anthropics Börsengang. Vor sechs bis acht Wochen lag die angestrebte Bewertung bei einer Billion Dollar. Inzwischen sind es zwei Billionen – eine Verdoppelung innerhalb von ein bis zwei Monaten. Laut Reuters soll die Vermarktung Mitte Oktober beginnen, noch vor den US-Zwischenwahlen im November. Laut Fortune hat das Unternehmen bei dieser Bewertung bisher keinen Gewinn erwirtschaftet. TJ stellt die entscheidenden Fragen offen: Ist die 10-Prozent-Warnung echte Sorge? Ist sie Marketing? Oder ist sie der Versuch, über ein Kontrollgremium noch mehr institutionellen Einfluss zu sichern? Wer die Zahlen kennt, sieht: Öffentliche Aufmerksamkeit ist hier kein Nebenprodukt – sie ist das Produkt. Das nimmst du mit: • Wenn ein KI-Forscher aus einer einflussreichen Firma öffentlich eine 10-%-Auslöschungs-Wahrscheinlichkeit nennt, lohnt es sich, den finanziellen Kontext zu prüfen – Anthropic strebt kurz darauf einen Börsengang mit 2-Billionen-Dollar-Bewertung an. • Wenn Elon Musk einen Konkurrenten wie Anthropic öffentlich unterstützt, hat das handfeste wirtschaftliche Gründe: Er verdient 1,5 Mrd. Euro monatlich durch Rechenzentrums-Vermietung an Anthropic. • Wenn Dario Amodei (Anthropic-CEO) 'das Tempo bremsen' fordert, meint er nicht Stopp – sondern einen Drei-Stufen-Plan mit unabhängigen Prüfern, Staaten-Koordination und globalen Absprachen. • Wenn eine Firmenbewertung innerhalb von zwei Monaten von 1 auf 2 Billionen Dollar springt und das Unternehmen noch keinen Gewinn macht, ist öffentliche Aufmerksamkeit kein Nebenprodukt – sie ist das Produkt. • Wenn alle großen Podcasts gleichzeitig dasselbe Thema aufgreifen, ist es kein Zufall: Dieser Rücktritt hat das Machtgefüge der KI-Branche sichtbar durchgeschüttelt – und die Debatte hat gerade erst begonnen.

Eric Rea and Dennis Steele's first pitch to a car dealership ended with the general manager writing a check for the entire year on the spot, and they say that moment is what convinced them dealerships, not the tire shops they started with, would build their company. They walk through how a 700-location collision repair network let Podium's voice agent take over 61% of its after-hours phone calls, and how that agent is now on pace to help book $1 billion in repairs this year with a customer satisfaction score higher than the network's own human call center, a result that surprised even their most skeptical engineers. Eric Rea and Dennis Steele are the co-founders of Podium, the AI platform now used by 4,000 auto dealerships for reviews, texting, and voice-based customer service.

Pal Barlow joins us tonight with his weekly segment about what he found in OpenBrief this week and with all the coverage in the news about Nicky Hager's new book, it makes sense we look at the TPU and see what it shows about their activities.Labour pledges billions to build more social housing, fix hospitals in a promise of almost $3 billion to build 6000 new social houses, plus hundreds of millions more to upgrade schools and repair hospitals.Kieran McAnulty and Chris Bishop sparred on Breakfast this morning over revelations in Nicky Hagers book and why Labour have pulled out of the TPU debates and without a hint irony Chris Bishop trying to explain why politicians should go to debates with groups they disagree with seemingly forgetting that a minimum of 13 (including himself) National MPs refused to participate in the BHN debate series.++++++++++++++++++++Like us on Facebook.com/BigHairyNetwork Follow us on Twitter.com/@bighairynetworkFollowing us on TikTok.com/@bighairynetworkSupport us on Patreon www.patreon.com/c/BigHairyNewsCheck out our merch https://bhn.nz/shop/Donate to our work https://bhn.nz/shop/donation/
In dieser Folge von „baugeld gibt“ diskutieren wir über ein Marktumfeld, das zunehmend von Unsicherheit geprägt ist. Im Mittelpunkt stehen die niedrigen Gasspeicherstände von rund 56 %, ein Ölpreis von über 100 US-Dollar je Barrel und die Frage, wie geopolitische Spannungen und höhere Energiekosten Verbraucher, Unternehmen und letztlich auch die Inflation belasten.
New Season - to mark the launch of our new season, YS Chi, RELX corporate affairs officer, speaks with Jamie Buckley, chief product officer for LexisNexis Legal & Professional and Elsevier. AI is reshaping the way professionals work, but in fields such as law, science and healthcare, accuracy, security and privacy leave little room for error. Jamie Buckley offers a distinct perspective on what it takes to build AI that professionals can trust. Since joining LexisNexis Legal & Professional in 2015, Buckley has helped lead the development of products for legal professionals. His role expanded in 2025 to include Elsevier, bringing together two large businesses that serve different customers but share the same foundations: high-quality content, deep domain expertise and advanced technology.Watch the video version at https://youtu.be/QaQxplShaqE
Ted Thatcher sees On Holding's (ONON) Investor Day as a strong turnaround signal, highlighted by a billion dollar buyback and margin expansion from 12% to over 22% projected by 2029. He likes the premium brand's direct consumer relationships and athlete partnerships with Mbappe and Federer, though he flags consumer discretionary headwinds. Tom White then demonstrates an example trade.======== Schwab Network ========Empowering every investor and trader, every market day.Options involve risks and are not suitable for all investors.

Big projects routinely blow their budgets, schedules, and sometimes the companies building them. But research across 16,000+ projects reveals surprisingly consistent rules for getting them right.In this solo episode, I translate lessons from How Big Things Get Done by Bent Flyvbjerg and Dan Gardner into practical strategies for entrepreneurs building factories, energy projects, infrastructure, and other capital-intensive businesses.Seven lessons for entrepreneurs:Assume your forecast is too optimistic. Compare your project with what actually happened on similar projects, not just your own projections.Plan slowly so you can build quickly. Mistakes are cheap on paper and brutally expensive once construction starts.Don't innovate everywhere at once. A breakthrough project can combine mostly proven components with a small amount of genuinely novel technology.Find your LEGO brick. Standardization, repetition, and modularity can dramatically reduce cost, complexity, and execution risk.Hire people with scars. Your first commercial project should not also be your contractor's first attempt at building one.Shrink the window of vulnerability. Every extra month creates more exposure to inflation, tariffs, elections, supply chains, and other surprises.Align incentives before construction begins. Structure contracts so everyone wins when the project succeeds, rather than profiting from delays and change orders.Read about all 15 tips here:https://entrepreneursforimpact.substack.com/p/15-rules-for-building-big-projects--Are you a VC- or PE-backed CEO building in energy, infrastructure, or climate tech?Join 45 CEOs and 45 investors and post-exit founders who help each other make better decisions on capital, strategy, scaling, and leadership.See if the CEO community is a fit → entrepreneursforimpact.comGet smarter on energy, infrastructure, and climate tech in 2 minutes.Join 40,000+ professionals getting practical insights on startups, investing, commercialization, strategy, and leadership.Get the free newsletter → entrepreneursforimpact.substack.comHelp more people find this podcast.If this episode was useful, take 20 seconds to follow the show or leave a rating on Apple Podcasts or Spotify.

In this episode of Tank Talks, host Matt Cohen sits down with Anthony Mouchantaf, co-founder and CEO of Biossil, a biotech company on a mission to resurrect orphaned drugs using AI and a hedge fund–inspired operating model. Anthony takes us through his unconventional journey: from a law school student obsessed with Alexander Hamilton, to founding his first startup, Rthm (acquired), to investing at OMERS and RBC, and finally returning to the founder seat with Biossil.They dive into the mindset shift required to leave a stable legal career for the uncertainty of startups, why Anthony views entrepreneurship as a “drug,” and how his time as an LP shaped his view of what separates great VCs from mediocre ones. Anthony opens up about the early days of Biossil, the “too cute” capital-efficient strategy, and how a serendipitous dinner intro to Founders Fund changed everything.He also breaks down the real-world mechanics of acquiring off-the-shelf drugs, the brutal reality of biotech timelines, and why regulatory reform is the hidden bottleneck to AI-driven medicine. From the partnership with OpenAI to the company's operating philosophy (hedging beta, maximizing catalyst density, and isolating alpha), Anthony offers a blueprint for building a resilient, mission-driven biotech for the AI era.Whether you're a founder, investor, or just someone curious about the intersection of AI and life sciences, this episode is packed with hard-earned wisdom on risk, identity, and the art of controlling what you can control.From Law School to Startup Life (02:24)* Growing up in Toronto as the child of immigrant parents, chasing constitutional law* The Alexander Hamilton obsession that started in high school* Teaching a course at U of T law without ever practicing* How a late-night conversation at Massey College with co-founder Alex led to RthmWhat Founding Rthm Taught Him About Himself (06:14)* Getting comfortable with structural uncertainty as almost “a drug”* Why you can take the individual out of the startup, but never the startup out of the individual* The itch that never fully goes away after founding somethingFrom Founder to Investor: OMERS and RBCX (07:11)* What separates great investors from destructive ones* “Extremely hard to kill”: what he saw early in Matt and Ripple Ventures* Why most VCs cluster around mediocrity, and what the outliers do differently* The poker-chip analogy: how capital position shapes VC risk appetite* Why good LPs need to “thumb the scale” for good VCs, just as good VCs do for foundersThe Idea Behind Biossil (15:05)* Reuniting with Alex, an MD-PhD, after years on separate paths* The core problem: drug development should be recursive, but biotechs can't afford to make it so* Why promising drugs get stranded in “regulatory limbo” when the data is equivocal, not failed* The insight: using technology to systematize what was historically a relationship-driven, human-scale rescue effortBiossil 1.0 vs. the Bigger Vision (20:43)* Launching in 2023 on a lean seed round with no capital to acquire drugs outright* Getting “too cute” trying to solve the problem at a fraction of the necessary cost* Why most VCs evaluate founders cross-sectionally instead of longitudinallyHunting for Orphaned Drugs (26:03)* Why data is a cost of admission in biotech, not a moat like in tech* How Biossil structures deals to share economics with original rights holders* Why inbound interest rarely meets their barRunning Biossil Like an Operating Hedge Fund (30:50)* Isolating alpha, or execution, from beta, or market and biotech cycle risk* Why traditional biotech investing is “binary risk you can't underwrite” without a portfolio* Building resilience through catalyst density instead of just runway* The “epsilon” factor: surviving long enough for unexplained outcomes to work in your favorBuilding Lean with AI (34:12)* Running a hyper-efficient, eight-person core team* Why Biossil takes on regulatory and commercial risk, not manufacturing risk* The pipeline today: $70M raised, 11 drugs, 5 open clinical trials across the US, Canada, and Europe* What makes manufacturing the most underestimated cost in biotechThe Next 5-10 Years for Biossil (49:47)* The long-term vision: an approved-drug pipeline, deeper trials, more disease areas* Bringing new mechanisms of action to market as a category-defining goalAdvice to His Past Self (51:15)* Why he's hesitant to just tell people to “go do entrepreneurship”* Motivation matters more than the identity of being a founder* The Steve Jobs commencement speech that reframed how he thinks about riskAbout Anthony MouchantafAnthony Mouchantaf is the co-founder and CEO of Biossil, a biotech company that uses AI to systematically identify, acquire, and advance orphaned drugs left behind by failed clinical trials. With a background in law (U of T), startup founding (Rthm, acquired), and venture investing (OMERS, RBC), Anthony brings a rare blend of legal, financial, and operational discipline to the high-stakes world of drug development. Biossil is backed by Founders Fund and OpenAI, and is on a mission to turn industrial-scale drug resurrection into a new category of biotech innovation.Connect with Anthony Mouchantaf: https://www.linkedin.com/in/anthony-mouchantaf-508442113/Learn more about Biossil: https://www.biossil.co/Connect with Matt Cohen on LinkedIn: https://ca.linkedin.com/in/matt-cohen1Visit the Ripple Ventures website: https://www.rippleventures.com/ This is a public episode.

Kevin Rodman spent 24 years at Morgan Stanley, rising from bond trader to partner overseeing mortgage operations as the system came apart in 2008. What separated the survivors from the casualties, he says, was culture and discipline, and a refusal to let one superstar desk run the firm off a cliff. Those lessons now sit at the core of ABL Asset Based Lending, the private lender he helped build into a billion-dollar platform for new construction, fix and flip, and DSCR loans. In this episode, Rodman walks Zeb through ABL's growth from a 2010 post-crash startup to a national platform serving seasoned infill builders, the hard reset that followed when DSCR volume doubled and service times slipped, and how AI is already reshaping the mortgage factory. His read on the next decade: the lenders who win will pair durable capital with modern tech and a culture where everyone thinks like an owner.

Entertainment giant Paramount is seriously preparing to move its headquarters out of California due to a legal stalemate over its massive merger with Warner Bros. Discovery. State officials have filed antitrust lawsuits to block the deal, prompting the studio to notify local leadership that it is ready to end its century-long history in Hollywood. This potential exit threatens the state with an estimated $21 billion annual economic loss and the disappearance of nearly 58,000 jobs. While industry experts debate how emerging technology like AI and lower-cost production hubs might justify the move, a high-stakes mediation session is scheduled for October to seek a resolution. The conflict highlights a growing rift between traditional film centers and corporate interests seeking more favorable regulatory and economic environments. Overall, the situation reflects a transformative moment for the American film industry as major institutions reconsider their geographic loyalties.
In his 2026 Goalkeepers Report, Bill Gates cautions that artificial intelligence stands at a pivotal crossroads where it could either bridge global gaps or become a historic engine of social inequality. To steer the technology toward a fair future, the Gates Foundation has pledged $1 billion to ensure that medical, educational, and agricultural AI tools reach underserved communities. The philanthropist emphasizes that the next 18 months are crucial for establishing governance that prioritizes human needs over mere market profits. Supporting this vision, foundation leaders argue for localized data and multilingual support to prevent the "digital divide" from widening further. Additionally, Gates proposes the concept of "human-reserved jobs" to protect specific roles that require an irreplaceable personal touch from being fully automated. Together, these sources highlight an urgent global mission to transform emerging technology into a universal force for good rather than a tool for the privileged.

In this episode, Jayla explains why waiting until January to set annual goals can sabotage fundraising plans, and why fall is a better time to map out milestones, funding needs, and investor strategy. And she's sharing practical fundraising advice from her recent Seed Money office hours sessions. If you're raising money in the next 6 to 12 months, this episode is about setting the right goals before the year gets away from you. Key topics Jayla argues that January is the worst time to set goals because founders are tired, distracted, and coming off the holidays. Fall is framed as the best planning season for founders who want to raise money in the next 6 to 12 months. She emphasizes funding the next milestone, not the "big crazy dream," when building a fundraising plan. The real fundraising question is: what will make the company more valuable next, and how much money is needed to get there? She explains why a company may need stepping-stone capital, such as friends and family money, before becoming ready for larger investors. Jayla warns that if the story is just "I need $2 million to build a billion-dollar company," it will not sound logical or well thought out to investors. She says pitch deck design matters less than the underlying funding strategy and investor fit. Personal goals matter as much as business goals because ignoring health, exercise, travel, and rest can lead to burnout. Jayla reflects on her own experience of building for growth without aligning it to the life she actually wanted. She encourages founders to define business milestones, personal goals, and funding strategy together.

Hour 2 (9.10) The alarm bells are coming from inside the building this hour. We start with the Anthropic researcher who quit and warned that AI could kill us all by 2030 — and the company insider who agreed with him. Then a billion-dollar lawsuit over the Boyle Heights warehouse fire, plus two Delta flights that lost cabin pressure in the same stretch. A Hollywood Hills home invasion victim whose story didn't hold up. And the City Council writing a check for the "no-cost" Olympics. 7:05 — AI Doomsday From the Inside A 27-year-old researcher named Jacob Coxon resigned from Anthropic this week and posted the reason on X, where it's racked up more than 150 million views. His claim: the people building this technology privately believe it could kill us all by the end of the decade, and both Anthropic and OpenAI are "racing straight to self-improving superintelligence and gambling with our lives." Then it got stranger — Anthropic's own head of alignment publicly agreed, putting the odds of AI wiping out humanity at greater than 10% in the next decade. 7:20 — Billion-Dollar Blame Game & Delta's Bad Week Lineage Logistics is suing solar operator Altus Power and contractor Pearce Services for more than $1 billion, claiming they sparked the June 17 Boyle Heights warehouse fire that burned for over a week and left the neighborhood with foul air, rodents, and insects for months. The suit alleges roughly 200 faulty electrical connections were known about by May and the contractors re-energized the array anyway. Both companies deny it. Then: two separate Delta flights lost cabin pressure. On Flight 2311 out of LAX, the oxygen masks dropped and the 737 fell 27,000 feet in about ten minutes before diverting to Las Vegas. 7:35 — Wrong House, Wrong Night A man in Hollywood Hills West told police he was robbed and beaten during an overnight home invasion — five suspects, a gun, a stolen safe, and a getaway car. There was just one problem with his story. Police say he doesn't live there and wasn't house-sitting either. Investigators now believe the victim was a squatter, which means somebody picked the wrong house on the wrong night, twice over. It happened a day after a reported hot prowl at Quentin Tarantino's place. 7:50 — The "No-Cost" Olympics Starts Costing The City Council voted 8-3 to authorize $13.04 million in debt financing for 107 non-patrol LAPD vehicles for the 2028 Games — trucks, vans, mobile substations, hazmat rigs. A separate $30 million request for 300 patrol cars got pushed back for more review. Councilmember Eunisses Hernandez voted no and pointed out the obvious: L.A. was promised a no-cost Olympics, and the vehicle tab alone is headed north of $40 million.

AI developer Anthropic has reportedly halted its plans to acquire the Israeli startup Decart for an estimated $6 billion. The proposed deal fell through following a rigorous due diligence process, though the two organizations may still pursue a future commercial partnership. Decart is highly valued for its specialized optimization software that significantly lowers the cost of running AI models and its innovative real-time world models. Industry experts suggest the collapse of this massive acquisition signals a more disciplined era of deal-making where technical merit must align with sustainable economic value. This shift comes at a pivotal time as Anthropic prepares for its own highly anticipated initial public offering. Ultimately, the decision highlights that even in a booming market, the high price of computational efficiency can sometimes exceed what major players are willing to pay.

In this episode of Catching Up, Nate McClennen and Mason Pashia get into what happens after a $2.5 billion settlement lands, and whether "fund real life" is actually a better answer than another wave of mental health apps. They also talk through a study showing AI models recommend completely different schools depending on which one you ask, and why that's a bigger deal than it sounds. From there, the conversation turns to a real tension in AI and education right now: efficiency versus efficacy. Nate makes the case that the real opportunity isn't faster lesson planning, it's building AI tools around what learning science already tells us works, things like spaced practice, real-time feedback, and targeted instruction. He also breaks down a simple way to think about how school systems actually learn, separating implementation, innovation, and continuous improvement, and why mixing them up is often where districts get stuck. Mason brings a deep dive on moving past tokenistic student surveys toward real intergenerational co-design, with some genuinely striking examples, a student-drafted AI policy bill that passed 82 to 16, and the Kentucky Student Voice Team's constitutional lawsuit against their own state. They wrap up with something a little lighter: a living room full of guitars at a family wedding, and a pottery shop in Illinois that's run entirely on the honor system, two small reminders of what real human connection still looks like.

Today, we are pulling back the curtain on CPG venture capital with Nathan Cooper, Founder and Managing Partner at Barrel Ventures. As an early backer of category-defining brands like OLIPOP, Nate shares his unique "Rules" of CPG investing in an era defined by rapid disruption. We kick things off by exploring how macroeconomic shifts, from GLP-1 lifestyle changes to wearables feedback loops, are redefining consumer habits. Nate and I explore the "Great Soda U-Turn," explaining how brands like OLIPOP successfully flipped the narrative to turn fizzy drinks from digestive villains into gut-health heroes. Although modern soda is just the beginning. In fact, we dive deep into the world of precision fermentation with pioneering companies like Helaina, analyzing how bioidentical lactoferrin bypasses traditional supply limits to disrupt the massive infant formula market (and beyond). Finally, Nate and I shed light on the explosive, high-stakes sectors of "Modern Oral" mouth pouches and the complex regulatory maze of hemp-derived functional beverages. Whether you're an ambitious founder trying to build CPG brands that master the daily consumer ritual, an investor managing early-stage long-horizon fund economics, or industry stakeholder seeking fresh market insights, this conversation delivers!
Lanterns just aired the episode; showrunner Chris Mundy has been calling his Emmy episode, and Frank and Thomas spend the first half of the show pulling it apart. The John Stewart flashback rewrites his origin, leaves Hal Jordan looking like a jerk, and puts fear, race, and family expectation at the center of what it takes to carry a ring. Then the guys move to the GTA 6 gameplay reveal that Rockstar dropped on Netflix before YouTube. Ten years of development, a two billion dollar budget, an 80 hour campaign, and a map three times the size of Red Dead Redemption 2, plus relationship and fitness systems that quietly punish you for neglecting them. Frank and Thomas also read listener comments on the Lanterns episode, run through network news, compare notes on where they are in Dungeon Crawler Carl, and close with picks of the week. CHAPTERS 00:00 Which Avenger Would Make the Best Green Lantern 02:42 Lanterns Episode 3 and the John Stewart Origin 09:00 Willpower, Fear, and the Question the Show Keeps Asking Wrong 17:41 Listener Comments on the Lanterns Episode 24:18 GTA 6 Reveal: Two Billion Dollars, 80 Hours, and a Map Three Times Red Dead 2 30:09 Car Alarms, Surveillance, and 600,000 NPC Animations 34:25 Network News and Dungeon Crawler Carl Book Five 41:07 Picks of the Week: Geoff Johns Green Lantern and Dimension 20 WHAT WE COVER Both hosts rate the Lanterns flashback near perfect on writing and performances, and both admit it changed how they read Hal Jordan. Frank says the episode was not aimed at him, and that watching Black viewers respond to it told him more than the episode alone did. The show asks recruits whether they are afraid. The comics, going back to Geoff Johns' 2005 run, ask whether your will can overcome the fear you already have. Frank and Thomas think the show is asking the wrong version on purpose, and that the season is retelling the Rebirth era transition in a grounded way. Jonathan's theory, relayed by Frank: the Guardians are breeding the humanity out of their Lanterns, which is the exact mistake that produced the Manhunters. Thomas ties that to the wiping of sector 666 and to how detached the Guardians are from life on a planet like Earth. The show changed John's military discharge from honorable in the comics to dishonorable, a choice Thomas did not like even though he understands what it adds to the character. GTA 6 arrives November 19 after more than ten years and roughly two billion dollars. The campaign runs about 80 hours before side content, the map is three times the size of Red Dead Redemption 2, and NPC animations jump from 55,000 in GTA 5 to 300,000 in Red Dead 2 to 600,000 here. Rockstar kept the satire but avoided current politics, memes, and trends to keep the game evergreen, and stealing a car now means dealing with alarms, trackers, and block cameras. Geek Freaks is doing a dedicated GTA 6 episode at launch and streaming for charity for the first time since 2021. QUOTES "The question has never been, are you afraid. The question is, if you're afraid, can your will overcome that fear?" Thomas "He's pushed everything out of his life that could possibly give him fear. That doesn't mean he doesn't have it. It just means he's given himself less excuse." Thomas on Hal Jordan "They're trying to turn the Green Lanterns back into the Manhunters, no emotions, only listen to orders. But that's not what you actually want." Frank "GTA is going to teach us to be better people, which is not the game you'd expect that from." Frank "In the beginning it was all about being in your boxers and punching goblins, and now there's class warfare, corporations, sabotage and spying."

This week, Nachi Gordon sits down with philanthropists Yossi Hoch and Simcha Shain to talk about the world of tzedakah, from the pressure donors carry to the changing psychology of giving. They open up about what has shifted since their parents' generation, how technology and platforms like Charidy have reshaped fundraising, and why some of the most established organizations now struggle to compete with flashier, newer causes. Along the way they share candid stories about donors who quietly write six figure checks and others who give up their Shabbos soda money, and why both matter equally. The conversation turns personal as Yossi and Simcha discuss the hidden shame that comes with losing the ability to give, the toll of unfulfilled pledges, and what it really means to give with a full heart rather than a full wallet. They also dig into Shuvu, the organization educating thousands of children across Israel, including former hostage Bar Kuperstein, and share the story of how each of them first got involved. It's a wide ranging, honest look at what tzedakah costs, what it gives back, and why every dollar, no matter the size, counts.
