Hungary's oldest library is fighting a beetle infestation. The creatures have been found in a section of the 1,000 year-old Pannonhalma Archabbey library, housing around a quarter of the abbey's 400,000 volumes. It's prompted workers to pull tens of thousands of centuries-old books from the shelves of the mediaeval abbey in an effort to save them.

On the Saturday July 12, 2025 edition of The Richard Crouse Show we'll meet Paul Sun-Hyung Lee. You know the Canadian Screen Award winner as family patriarch Appa on “Kim's Convenience,” and as Inspector Albert Choi, the new head of Station House No 4, on “Murdoch Mysteries” and as Captain Carson Teva on the Star War series “The Mandalorian,” “The Book of Boba Fett” and “Ahsoka.” We'll also meet a guest who began his career as a child actor, appearing in everything from “Back tio the Future II” to Internal Affairs opposite Richard Gere. He became an international star after playing Frodo Baggins in the acclaimed “Lord of the Rings” trilogy. He's Elijah Wood, and his extensive filmography now includes “Bookworm,” an intriguing film about a 12-year-old named Mildred whose life is turned upside down when her mother lands in hospital and estranged, American magician father, Strawn Wise, played by Elijah Wood, comes to look after her. Hoping to entertain the bookish tween, Strawn takes Mildred camping in the notoriously rugged New Zealand wilderness, and the pair embark on the ultimate test of family bonding — a quest to find the mythological beast known as the Canterbury Panther. Then, we spend time with Gabrielle Drolet, a journalist, essayist, and cartoonist based in Montreal. She regularly contributes cartoons to The New Yorker and the Globe and Mail and is the first woman to receive a National Newspaper Award nomination for Editorial Cartooning. In 2020, she developed a condition that made her unable to use her hands. It only worsened over time, and as a writer and artist, she had to learn new ways of creating and expressing herself. She placed her first cartoon in The New Yorker—and then was unable to draw for a full year. She has since found ways around this using graphic design software, exercises, and many, many breaks, but the experience has completely changed her life. She writes about her experiences in her new book, “Look Ma, No Hands: A Chronic Pain Memoir,” an often funny but profound book on chronic pain, accessibility, and young adulthood.

While Rik Vollaerts' early draft of The Bookworm Turns was very different from what was broadcast, surely the final script is exactly what we saw? But no, that's never true; some changes always occur at the hands of the director, and perhaps the actors. A significant scene (and significant henchman) disappeared from this story as broadcast. Was it simply cut for time, or were there questions of taste? In the latest BAT BITS, Tim and Paul discuss the differences and what may account for them.

In this episode, we dive into private assets. What they are, their history, the risks and benefits and whether they suit investors.In this week's Unconventional Wisdom column, Mark runs through the reason why private credit is a hard no for him. As investors rush into the attractive yield offered by private credit providers, he urges caution and why all that glitters is not always gold.Shani's Future Focus looks at three ways to maximise your returns. Her column looks past how to find the best investments, but how to maximise the returns of the ones that you have.Public companies that are taken over by private equity are usually done so at a premium to recent share prices. But does seeking out potential takeover targets make sense for investors? In the latest edition of Bookworm, Joseph taps the insight of legendary fund manager Anthony Bolton to arrive at three things that might make a company more attractive to acquirers. He also explains why investors should be wary of relying too much on this outcome alone.99% of investors won't be the next Warren Buffett. Luckily, we don't need to be that successful. This week Sim continues to explore products that make investing easier, with the newest edition of Young & Invested featuring a deep dive on one-ETF portfolios.

Spirit-Centered Business

I had the absolute joy of talking with Dr. Dave Jones—and what a powerful conversation it was! He shared his personal journey from religion to deep Kingdom revelation, and how a divine encounter opened his eyes to the truth of who we really are in Christ.Dave carries a bold vision to see sons and daughters awakened to their true identity and walk in Kingdom authority—not someday, but now. We talked about leaving behind fear-based thinking, accessing the unseen realm, and living from the spirit as a daily reality.His story is full of heart, hunger, and Holy Spirit fire. Get ready to be stirred!BIO:Dave grew up in Western Pennsylvania and spent most of his early childhood and adult life in and out of hockey rinks around the world; playing in cities such as Ottawa, Cleveland, Pittsburgh, Kalamazoo, and Grand Rapids. His love and skill for hockey lead into a professional career in Europe playing in many countries including Luxemburg, Russia, Slovakia, Switzerland and finally Germany.For over 13 years, Dave has worked NHL, NFL, Track and Field, and CrossFit athletes with their mental preparation, and hundreds of organizational leaders and executives around the world. Dave's personal vision is to unify excellence in the marketplace. He has founded 4 thriving companies in the Raleigh, North Carolina community. Dave Jones has B.S. in Management Studies from the University of Maryland, European Division.He also earned his Doctorate in Sport Psychology in 2024 after a long pursuit and determination. Dave is a sports consultant who coaches CEOs, executives, professional athletes to help achieve their vision, by executing and developing mental skills training, and enhancing thought blocking techniques.He works with organization leaders on their strategy, execution and communication, and managing the gaps between employees and management.As a thought leader and highly motivated individual, Dave engages executive teams by consulting on analytics, oversight of talent initiatives, and one-on-one coaching. He helps leaders improve the effectiveness of their organizations, by utilizing practices such as strategic planning, mental skills training, organizational assessment, and team interventions.Dave and his wife Laura currently reside in Raleigh, NC and have two young boys.HIGHLIGHTS:Slapshot to SalvationA literal slapshot to the face (yes, like broken-nose, nerve-damage kind of slapshot) became the divine wake-up call that pivoted Dave's life. Sometimes it really does take a hockey puck to the face to hear God clearly.Jesus Over HangoversAt 16, fresh off a state championship and a hangover, Dave had a holy interruption when his brother from Moody Bible Institute asked him if he wanted to keep living like that—or receive Jesus. Hungover or not, Dave said yes to Jesus.Grace-Fueled GritHe barely passed high school, but chased knowledge like a beast and just finished his PhD (hello, Dr. Dave!)—proving that being “not academic” doesn't disqualify you when God's the one writing your story.Marketing Ministry that Moves MountainsDave has been running M is Good for 24 years, managing $1.6 million a month in ad spend for 38 Christian orgs globally. It's not just marketing; it's ministry with strategy and Holy Spirit-led messaging.Turtle on a Fence Post WisdomHis favorite analogy: if you see a turtle on a fence post, you know it didn't get there by itself. That's how he sees his journey—with God as the one lifting him higher than he could ever climb on his own.God doesn't always pick the obvious candidates—so relax.Dr. Dave reminds us that God tends to use the least expected people to do powerful things. You don't have to be a marketing guru to start a Christian marketing business (he sure wasn't)—you just have to say yes and be willing to figure things out as you go.Confidence isn't always spiritual—it can come from just doing what you love.Confidence doesn't have to float down from heaven on a cloud. Sometimes it's built in the trenches—or on the ice rink. Dr. Dave leaned on the grit and resilience he learned from sports to push through early business doubts and roadblocks.Ask the hard question: “Am I usable?”While soaking in a worship song about being used by God, Dr. Dave had a wake-up moment. He asked himself if he was actually in a place where God could use him. That led to some personal soul-searching and change. A humbling reminder that being “called” doesn't mean skipping character work.Don't over-spiritualize—just listen, think, and align.Dave's not the type to claim burning bush moments. Instead, he hears from God through alone time, journaling, and reading Scripture. His method? Follow peace, check the fruit, and if it's not hurting anyone (including himself), take a step forward and see if things line up.What knocks you down doesn't define you.That slapshot to the face (literal blood and trauma) taught him a deep truth: Painful events don't get to label you. Whether it's a business failure or personal screw-up, it's just a moment—not your identity. Shake it off, reset, and remember who you are.“If you don't like who you are, you can change it” — and Dave did!One simple statement from a mentor changed everything for Dave. He turned off the TV for two years, devoured 30 books, and jumpstarted a whole new trajectory for his life. Bookworm phase = Destiny shiftThose two years of focused reading didn't just upgrade his mindset—they altered his impact. Talk about a ripple effect! Sometimes the quiet seasons with a stack of books are what set you up for legacy-level impact.Divine ambush in GermanyOn what was supposed to be just a business trip, Dave gets singled out by an apostle at church, receives a powerful word, hits the floor, and has a Holy Spirit encounter that shakes him to his core. Not your average business travel story.The birth of “R7” from a spiritual downloadThat prophetic moment planted a seed that grew into his full-blown life and business framework: R7. It came through soaking, wrestling, believing—and waiting. God even sent mentors for each piece of it, for free. That's what we call Kingdom provision.He didn't shelve the word—he stewarded itEven though he didn't act right away, Dave didn't dismiss or forget the word he got in Germany. He sat with it, prayed about it, and waited on God's timing. That's a masterclass in how to honor a word from the Lord without rushing it.LINKS for DR.

Buffett has invested for over 7 decades, where his investing style and approach has evolved. There are many lessons, quotes and soundbites that investors take from him. This episode looks at the lessons that we should ignore from Buffett.You can find the full article here.To submit any questions or feedback, please email mark.lamonica1@morningstar.com or leave us a voicemail to feature on the podcast here.Additional resources from our episodes are available via our website.Audio Producer and mixer: William Ton.We always have market sceptics (including us at times) declare that there will be inevitable bear markets. However, we've had significant economic and social disruption in the form of a pandemic, and the volatility and uncertainty of President Trump. Still, the market continues to rise. In Mark's latest column, he has explored the reasons for why the market continues to rise, and whether the trend will continue. Stock market participants can broadly be split into two camps: investors and speculators. In the next edition of Bookworm, Joseph shows how Warren Buffett's teacher Benjamin Graham distinguished between the two in a single paragraph of text. He also poses a question that every budding investor should ask themselves, and shares his view on a five word approach to markets that Graham recommended. Shani's last edition of her column looked at a tax targeting super accounts over $3 million. In this edition, she broadens the lens. Australia has a National Financial Capability Strategy, but it is inactive. She runs through the dire impacts that putting financial literacy on the backburner can have on Aussies. She writes an open letter to the newly re-elected Government, urging an immediate focus on improving financial literacy. 60% of Aussies report not feeling confident about managing their own retirement. The relationship between you and your super fund might end up being one of the longest relationships you'll ever have. And just like life, you're at liberty to chop and change as you go. But much like picking a good partner, who you start with matters. In this week's Young & Invested, Sim explores some of the things you should consider when picking between super funds.

Meanwhile, 23andMe sold your DNA to Regeneron at a bankruptcy auction, proving once and for all that your spit is more valuable than most tech startups.IN THE NEWS is a parade of corporate idiocy and dystopian fuckery. Coinbase employees got bribed into leaking user data (because clearly we didn't have enough crypto chaos), Klarna keeps flip-flopping between AI and human workers like it's a bad Tinder date, and OpenAI is out here buying Jony Ive's design firm for $6.5 billion because sure, what's another billion when you're trying to build a surveillance device to stalk 100 million users? Meanwhile, the Chicago Sun-Times is publishing AI-generated trash with imaginary authors, Anthropic's new model attempts blackmail, and researchers dumped two billion Discord messages online just for kicks. And yes, Elon's Tesla robotaxis will now only roam the safest parts of Austin, which is code for “we still can't make this thing turn left.”In MEDIA CANDY, we're watching Murderbot, Godfather of Harlem, and Hotel Cocaine because who doesn't love a little synthetic assassin, crime drama, and coke-fueled nostalgia? Notepad.exe now writes for you (and probably files HR complaints too), and Audible is teaming up with publishers to replace narrators with robot voices. Yay, progress.

In this listener requested episode, we take a look at how taxes impact you as an investor. Understanding the maths behind all of the variables for your total return means you're able to make better decisions. Tax is a big one.In this week's Unconventional wisdom column, Mark explores whether investor complacency is out of touch with reality. He looks at game theory and a prisoner's dilemma, and the lessons that investors can take from it, especially when it comes to the current market volatility. He looks like at where Trump - and the market, might go from here. Finding superior long-term investments as a stock picker requires you to find companies that defy the laws of capitalism. But how might you go about doing this? In the next edition of his Bookworm column, Joseph explores Marathon Asset Management's capital cycle approach to investing and how it can identify so-called “compounders”. Joseph also highlights a holding from his portfolio that he thinks fits the bill. Successful investing doesn't end as soon as you hit 'buy' in your trading account. Shani's Future Focus column looks at a methodical framework to monitor and maintain your portfolio, to increase your chances of achieving your financial goals. Easy access to technology means younger generations are more informed and confident in their investment decisions than ever. Furthermore, changes to the industry has led to structured financial advice increasingly becoming a luxury to access. In this week's Young & Invested, Sim explores whether financial advisers have any value proposition for young people.

Read to Lead: Why the Best Leaders Have Their Noses in Books Are you struggling to level up your leadership game? In this eye-opening episode, we dive into the secret weapon of legendary leaders like Warren Buffett, Abraham Lincoln, and Oprah Winfrey – they're all bookworms! Our panel of coaching experts breaks down why consistent reading isn't just helpful for leaders – it's absolutely essential. Mind-Expanding Mentorship From Warren Buffett devouring 500 pages daily to the average CEO consuming 4-5 books monthly, successful leaders are consistently feeding their brains. As one of our experts points out, reading gives you access to wisdom from people you'll never meet in person - it's like having Jocko Willink or Simon Sinek as your personal mentor! No Excuses, Only Priorities Think you're too busy to read? Our coaches challenge that notion head-on. As our coaching panel reminds us, "24 hours in every day is the only thing the good Lord gave us all an equal measure of." It's not about finding time; it's about making reading a priority. Cut just one hour of screen time weekly, and you've created space for literary growth. Brain-Rewiring Benefits Reading doesn't just provide information – it physically rewires your brain. According to our experts, physically reading and taking notes creates neural pathways that strengthen memory and enhance learning. For maximum benefit, follow up with quality sleep to cement those connections! ## The Bottom Line Leaders who stop reading stop growing. If you think you've "arrived," you haven't. If you're "too busy," you're not prioritizing correctly. Make a personal development plan that includes consistent reading, and watch your leadership capabilities soar. Tune in for: • Warren Buffett's surprising success secret (hint: it involves 500 pages daily) • Why reading trumps experience alone • Practical tips for creating your own leadership reading plan • The scientific reason reading physical books beats audiobooks Stop making excuses and start turning pages – your team is counting on you!

Some investors don't think that they have any goals to work towards, so they are unable to add proper structures and frameworks to their investment portfolios. This episode goes through a framework to dig deeper for your financial goals by exploring what you want from life, and therefore your finances.You are able to find the full article here.As cost of living increases and careers become more demanding, many younger people are also turning to income investing to derive a passive income. As more Aussies move towards this style of investing, we must understand what the opportunity cost is. Mark's Unconventional Wisdom column explores the opportunity cost of being an income investor. In Shani's Future Focus column, she looks at the insights for investors from a man responsible for $16 trillion. Salim Ramji is the new captain at the helm of Vanguard. His recent visit to Australia included a conversation with Johnathan Shapiro which revealed insights into how Salim sees the world, and how investors can apply those insights to how they invest. A study found that younger generations were disengaged when it came to their superannuation – and this isn't surprising. It's hard for young people to be excited at the prospect of retirement. But the reality is, failing to review your super is like cutting a hole in your wallet and walking around as the money falls out. This week Sim explores how your level of engagement with superannuation can have a significant impact on your retirement outcomes. Every big decision in life has trade offs. This can make it hard to make a decision in the first place and, perhaps even worse, lead to regrets seeping in later. In this week's Bookworm, Joseph explores a simple three-step method for tackling life's big choices with confidence. From deciding between two jobs to choosing whether to rent or buy.

We look at the ETFs that would go into a 3 ETF portfolio, using Morningstar's Manager Research Medalist ratings. In this week's Unconventional Wisdom column, Mark runs through what he should do about a position in his portfolio that has grown too large. He is reluctant to sell shares, especially due to the tax consequences, but it also aware of the dangers of having a large concentration in one share that violates his investment policy statement. Shani recently wrote an article on why she includes managed funds in her portfolio. She received many questions about whether it was the right choice. Her Future Focus column this week comes out in defence of her decision, and why it's important that investors consider their own situation when choosing investment products. Benjamin Graham is widely revered as the dean of value investing and the master of flipping stocks that traded below their asset value. Despite this, Graham's best ever investment actually stemmed from a very different approach. In this week's edition of Bookworm, Joseph finds buy and hold inspiration from this most unlikely of sources. In Sim's day to day, she often gets asked for investment advice when she least expects. Whether it's about shares at the dinner table or Bitcoin at a doctor's appointment. Recently this turned into a request from her younger sister to invest her savings in the market as I see fit. In Sim's latest column, she discusses how she constructed her sister's portfolio amidst the added pressure of giving financial advice to family.
