In this episode of Beth of Fresh Air, we enter the arena of sound.Sound is everywhere. It captures our attention, intrudes on our space, shapes our moods, colors our perceptions, and often influences us more than we consciously realize. From music to machinery, from background noise to deliberate harmony, sound plays a powerful role in how we experience the world.On the heels of an inspiring House of Free Will workshop with musician and truth champion Alex Michael, this episode opens the conversation about how we can work with sound—rather than be unconsciously worked over by it.I'll explore:The many ways sound impacts emotion and perceptionHow intrusive or “annoying” sounds can be reframed or harmonizedPlayful and practical ways to engage with sound intentionallyThe relationship between sound, mood, and sense of controlHow experimenting with tone, rhythm, and music can dramatically improve quality of lifeI'll will also share the quirky and creative ways I use sound and music to regulate my environment and uplift my state—demonstrating how small shifts in attention and intention can create surprising harmony.Near the end of the stream, Canadian duo Winsome Kind — Scott Perrie and Leora Joy Perrie — will join to share about their newest children's release and the watch party they're hosting on BandCamp immediately following BoFA.This episode invites listeners to become more conscious participants in their sonic environment—and to discover how sound can become a tool for agency rather than agitation.Let's take a Beth of Fresh Air together.Beth of Fresh Air is a place to look deep and see widely, to play with perception and perspective, in service of evolving culture and the power of the human spirit.Discover deprogramming and archetype courses at www.bethmartens.comApply for a zero-cost, one-on-one chat about working together: https://www.bethmartens.com/awaken-your-journey-archetype-applicationFind out your King Hero Archetype in ten minutes: https://www.bethmartens.com/king-hero-archetype-quiz-sign-up ***MORE FROM BETHSign up to take a 5-minute King Hero's Journey archetype quizApply to become a member of the House of Free WillRumbleKing Hero Telegram ChannelTwitter (X)InstagramSign up for a Hero's Journey Archetype ReadingOrder a copy of my book, ‘Journey: A Map of Archetypes to Find Lost Purpose in a Sea of Meaninglessness'Donate by PayPal if you're inspiredFollow the King Hero's Journey Podcast on... Apple Podcasts SpotifyIf we're just meeting...I'm Beth Martens—founder of the House of Free Will, pattern hunter, archetype reader, podcaster, author, coach trainer, and  business coach.

Elon Musk just pulled off the biggest merger in corporate history but is the $1.25 trillion SpaceX–xAI deal a stroke of visionary genius, or a financial sleight of hand?In this episode of Market Maker, Anthony and Piers unpack what's really behind the numbers. Is this bold vertical integration or just a clever way to funnel cash into a billion-dollar-a-month AI burn machine? They dig into Starlink's role as the cash engine, xAI's financial reality, and why Musk is using a rare “triangular merger” to shield liabilities.They also break down Musk's plan for space-based data centers and whether the science (and physics) actually adds up, plus how this all ties into the bigger Muskonomy: Grok, Optimus, robo-taxis, and orbital dominance.You'll also hear how Morgan Stanley, Goldman Sachs, J.P. Morgan, and BofA are circling the biggest IPO in history and what it means for markets, investors, and tech.New episodes drop weekly.

Federal Judge Jed S. Rakoff has accelerated litigation brought by a woman who says she was abused by Jeffrey Epstein, ordering the case against Bank of America (BofA) and The Bank of New York Mellon (BNY) onto a fast track. The plaintiff (referred to as “Jane Doe”) alleges the banks knowingly facilitated Epstein's trafficking operation, pointing to an account opened at BofA at Epstein's direction and alleging BNY processed around $378 million in payments to trafficking victims. The judge set November deadlines for motions to dismiss, demands full discovery by late February 2026, and indicated trials could begin in May or June 2026.The lawsuits bring fresh scrutiny to how major financial institutions may have turned a blind eye—or worse—to red flags around Epstein's operations. In the BofA complaint, the claim is made that the bank failed to file required Suspicious Activity Reports despite multiple warning signs, and profited from Epstein's business. The BNY suit accuses the bank of giving credit lines and processing vast sums tied to Epstein's model-agency front used in trafficking. Both banks say they will defend vigorously. The move follows earlier suits against JPMorgan Chase and Deutsche Bank that settled for hundreds of millions of dollars without admissions of liability.to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.comsources:Epstein Victim Lawsuits Against Bank of America and BNY Moving Quickly - Business Insider

Die US-Aktienfutures legen am Donnerstag zu, weil sich geopolitische Sorgen beruhigt haben und die Rally vom Mittwoch nachwirkt. Im Fokus stehen heute die wichtigen Inflationsdaten: Der Dow-Future ist leicht fester, S&P 500 und Nasdaq 100 ziehen deutlicher an. Vor allem Tech stützt: Nvidia, Microsoft, Meta und Micron sind vorbörslich gefragt. Auslöser bleibt Trumps Rückzieher bei den für den 1. Februar geplanten Europa-Zöllen und seine Aussage, es gebe ein Rahmenwerk zu Grönland – das hat besonders Small Caps beflügelt. Gleichzeitig bleibt die Woche für die Indizes bisher negativ, und mit PCE-Inflation sowie Erstanträgen auf Arbeitslosenhilfe könnte es gleich wieder volatiler werden. Bei den Einzeltiteln fällt Procter & Gamble nach gemischten Zahlen und schwächerer Nachfrage.

In this episode from January 16, 2026, the Qubit Value podcast focuses on Bank of America (BofA), framing its quantum strategy as a "prudent optimism" approach that balances massive scale with defensive necessity. The discussion reveals that BofA isn't just experimenting but is aggressively securing its future, having filed over 600 quantum-related patents by mid-2024 to build a protective "moat" of intellectual property around its innovations. The hosts detail the bank's "hybrid" strategy, where they run quantum-inspired algorithms on classical hardware today to achieve efficiency gains in fraud detection and risk modeling, while simultaneously preparing to flip the switch to true quantum hardware once it matures. A key highlight is BofA's proactive stance on security: recognizing the existential "Harvest Now, Decrypt Later" threat, they are already inventorying their cryptographic assets to migrate to Post-Quantum Cryptography (PQC), viewing this not just as IT maintenance but as a critical board-level imperative. The episode concludes by positioning BofA not as a reckless first mover, but as a strategic fast follower, ready to deploy "industrial-scale" quantum solutions the moment the technology proves commercially viable. Want to hear more?

Leon Black's response to being named in the Epstein survivors' lawsuit against Bank of America follows a familiar and well-worn script: recast himself as collateral damage rather than a powerful figure who knowingly remained in Jeffrey Epstein's orbit long after Epstein's crimes were public. Through statements and court filings, Black has framed his inclusion in the lawsuit as unfair, misleading, and opportunistic, arguing that he is not accused of committing abuse and that his name is being dragged into litigation simply because of his wealth and past association with Epstein. He presents himself as someone who was deceived by Epstein, emphasizing that he severed ties once he claims to have understood the full scope of Epstein's conduct and portraying his financial dealings as unrelated to trafficking or exploitation. In this telling, Black is not a beneficiary of Epstein's system, but a bystander whose reputation is being harmed by guilt-by-association.What this framing carefully avoids is the core allegation raised by survivors: that powerful men like Black, through continued financial engagement and personal access, helped legitimize Epstein, sustain his influence, and enable the broader machinery that allowed abuse to continue unchecked. Survivors and their attorneys argue that Black's claim of victimhood rings hollow given the years of documented payments, meetings, and post-conviction contact, all of which occurred in an environment where Epstein's criminal history was widely known. The lawsuit does not need to accuse Black of direct abuse to implicate him in the ecosystem that protected Epstein; it is precisely his power, credibility, and money that made that ecosystem possible. By casting himself as the injured party, Black attempts to flip the moral gravity of the case, shifting attention away from the survivors' claims and toward his own reputational harm—an inversion that many see as emblematic of how elite figures have repeatedly insulated themselves from accountability in the Epstein scandal.to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.comsource:Billionaire Leon Black Fires Back at Epstein Victim's Bankrolling ClaimsBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-moscow-murders-and-more--5852883/support.

What if the biggest myth in banking is that customers don't need branches anymore? Because every time Bank of America opens a new financial center, digital sales in that market jump by 50 percent. Physical presence isn't competing with digital — it's accelerating it. Now, Bank of America is putting $750 million behind a bet the rest of the industry walked away from too soon, opening 150 new financial centers across 60 markets by 2027 at more than $5 million per location. Bold? Yes. Contradictory? Maybe. But the timing suggests something deeper: after shrinking from 6,000 branches to about 3,700, they now believe the future isn't fewer branches… it's smarter ones. These next-generation centers aren't transaction factories. They're advisory hubs staffed by 12,000 relationship bankers, designed to anchor communities and handle the conversations digital can't — at least not yet. My guest on the Banking Transformed podcast, Will Smayda, leads this transformation. He'll explain why Bank of America is expanding while others retreat and what these new financial centers reveal about how clients actually want to bank. So, here's the question we all need to wrestle with: Is this the future of the branch — or the most expensive contradiction in banking?

The tech sector got a nudge from Micron (MU) thanks to an impressive post-earnings rally. Kevin Green adds that an inverse head-and-shoulders pattern is forming in the NDX, a potential bullish indicator. However, he points to a lack of liquidity in recent sessions making or breaking the upside move.

De-culting is a very important skill that I hope to help people with, God help me. lolI was in several cults myself, and I'm sure you have been at one time or another too. Whether they were in the spiritual, health, or other arenas everyone's life has been particularly touched by cult culture.It requires a special sauce to extricate from a cult, and we will unpack what that is. I'm counting on the chat to share their cult experiences, and I'm thinking this might turn into a series since a deep dive into some of the cults in particular would be useful.We will talk about the scale of cults, the harm participation in them brings, and look at the solutions in the same place I always find them.PS Because I name the episodes of BoFA with verbs I had to invent a word, “de-cult”. Here's what AI says the meaning of it is. It gets me, which I know is not necessarily a good thing. LOLFrom AI:“The term "de-cult" is not a standard or widely recognized word in English. However, based on the context provided, it may be interpreted as a conceptual opposite of "cult," potentially referring to the process of disengaging from or dismantling a group or movement characterized by intense devotion, isolation, and control.” ***Discover deprogramming and archetype courses at www.bethmartens.comApply for a zero-cost, one-on-one chat about working together: https://www.bethmartens.com/awaken-your-journey-archetype-applicationFind out your King Hero Archetype in ten minutes:  https://www.bethmartens.com/king-hero-archetype-quiz-sign-upTake my starter course: Deprogramming 101: https://www.bethmartens.com/deprogramming101***MORE FROM BETHSign up to take a 5-minute King Hero's Journey archetype quizApply to become a member of the House of Free WillRumbleKing Hero Telegram ChannelTwitter (X)InstagramSign up for a Hero's Journey Archetype ReadingOrder a copy of my book, ‘Journey: A Map of Archetypes to Find Lost Purpose in a Sea of Meaninglessness'Donate by PayPal if you're inspiredFollow the King Hero's Journey Podcast on... Apple Podcasts SpotifyIf we're just meeting...I'm Beth Martens—founder of the House of Free Will, pattern hunter, archetype reader, podcaster, author, coach trainer, and  business coach.

Western Digital (WDC) has more room to run, according to BofA. Diane King Hall explains the firm's price target hike and why hard disk drive demand is a key piece to its bullish outlook. Palo Alto Networks (PANW) slid slightly to the downside despite posting strong earnings and guidance. Investors appear to have questions around the company's $3.35 billion acquisition of Chronosphere. In the retail space, Diane notes the massive post-earnings sell-off in Bath & Body Works (BBWI). ======== Schwab Network ========Empowering every investor and trader, every market day.Options involve risks and are not suitable for all investors.

Federal Judge Jed S. Rakoff has accelerated litigation brought by a woman who says she was abused by Jeffrey Epstein, ordering the case against Bank of America (BofA) and The Bank of New York Mellon (BNY) onto a fast track. The plaintiff (referred to as “Jane Doe”) alleges the banks knowingly facilitated Epstein's trafficking operation, pointing to an account opened at BofA at Epstein's direction and alleging BNY processed around $378 million in payments to trafficking victims. The judge set November deadlines for motions to dismiss, demands full discovery by late February 2026, and indicated trials could begin in May or June 2026.The lawsuits bring fresh scrutiny to how major financial institutions may have turned a blind eye—or worse—to red flags around Epstein's operations. In the BofA complaint, the claim is made that the bank failed to file required Suspicious Activity Reports despite multiple warning signs, and profited from Epstein's business. The BNY suit accuses the bank of giving credit lines and processing vast sums tied to Epstein's model-agency front used in trafficking. Both banks say they will defend vigorously. The move follows earlier suits against JPMorgan Chase and Deutsche Bank that settled for hundreds of millions of dollars without admissions of liability.to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.comsources:Epstein Victim Lawsuits Against Bank of America and BNY Moving Quickly - Business Insider

Bloom Energy (BE) rallied more than 20% to kick off Monday's trading session. Alex Coffey explains how energy demand building for the A.I. infrastructure picture helps play a role in the surging price action. The tech picture is more mixed, with Wells Fargo upping price targets for storage giants Seagate (STX) and Western Digital (WDC), while BofA downgraded Intel (INTC) and Texas Instruments (TXN).======== Schwab Network ========Empowering every investor and trader, every market day.

Prosper Trading Academy's Charles Moon likes the stock's defensive price action seen on Friday and offers an example options trade for Intel.======== Schwab Network ========Empowering every investor and trader, every market day.Options involve risks and are not suitable for all investors.
