The Australian sharemarket is on edge ahead of what could be one of the biggest market-moving events of the year: the US Federal Reserve's interest rate decision. Host Ricardo Gonçalves speaks with Armina Rosenberg from Minotaur Capital about why expectations for US rates are shifting, what sticky inflation means for markets, and how investors are positioning themselves. The conversation also explores the rapid rise of artificial intelligence and its impact on investment opportunities.
More Americans now believe unemployment will rise than at any point since April 2020. Not inflation. Unemployment. And that's according to, yes, the Federal Reserve. At the same time, consumers believe that if they lose a job, finding another one quickly will be nearly impossible. That fear is already showing up in what households are already doing - and how rates are really being priced.

I’ve been traveling around the country promoting my new book, “The Golden Age: How Trump Saved America.” And it’s true that the president stopped our country from being taken over by political Islam and the communists. But right now the Administration is dealing with a communication problem – and it could threaten the midterm elections. The American people are hurting financially – affordability is an issue impacting many families. And yet the administration seems to dismiss those concerns. We were told that it was basically our patriotic duty to pay higher gas prices. Now comes word that the republican party’s midterm convention is in trouble. Turns out – it’s going to cost and arm and a leg to attend. House Members are being told they must pay at least $25,000 to attend. And that’s the cheap rate. The highest tier is $100,000. Some are calling it little more than a GOP fundraiser – as opposed to a pep rally for the midterms. And the event scheduled just two days before the 25th anniversary of the 9/11 attacks. Optics are everything. And the Republicans have a big time optics problem. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

In episode 385 of The Physical Performance Show, host Brad Beer sits down with fellow physiotherapist Lewis Craig for a lateral ankle sprain masterclass. Drawing on material the pair recently presented at a Gold Coast orthopedic evening, Brad and Lewis cover the burden and prevalence of lateral ankle sprains, the three-part clinical assessment process, key differential diagnoses, rehabilitation phases, and preventative strategies including bracing and taping. The episode explores why lateral ankle sprains — despite their reputation as a minor injury — carry a significant risk of chronic ankle instability, and why a thorough, structured assessment is essential to a smooth recovery. Brad and Lewis unpack the different ligament and tendon structures that can be involved, the red flags practitioners need to rule out, the impairment categories drawn from Jay Hertel's model of chronic ankle instability, and how rehabilitation should progress from protection through to return to sport and long-term prevention. Show Sponsor: Pogo Physio also offers online Telehealth Consultations for endurance athletes managing bone, tendon, or joint issues — book online at https://www.pogophysio.com.au. And...

Partners / links mentioned: Ortho Tools (Cumberland Ankle Instability Tool / CAIT): mentioned in-episode as the online questionnaire resource Contact: Lewis Craig — l.craig@pogophysio.com.au In this episode, you'll hear: Episode context: Lewis Craig's return to the show after being last on around episode 109, and his progress toward finishing his Sports Masters through the University of Queensland The burden of lateral ankle sprains: why they're the most common musculoskeletal injury in sport across field and court sports, contact and non-contact alike Recurrence risk: why roughly 40% of people who sprain their ankle go on to develop chronic instability, and why the one-year mark is a key risk-reduction milestone Early predictors of chronic ankle instability: the Doherty 2016 study on single-leg landing and drop-jump testing at two weeks post-injury The three priorities of assessment: ruling out red flags and fractures, forming an accurate diagnosis, and identifying impairments Screening for fractures: mechanism of injury, the Ottawa ankle rules, weight-bearing ability, and key bony landmarks to palpate Differential diagnosis: ATFL and CFL sprains (70–80% of ankle sprains), peroneal tendon injuries, bifurcate ligament sprains, deltoid ligament tears, syndesmosis injuries, and talar dome injuries Why getting a clear mechanism of injury from the athlete is critical to an accurate diagnosis Identifying impairments: the ROAST consensus and Jay Hertel's updated model of chronic ankle instability — pathomechanical, sensory-perceptual and motor-behavioural impairments Clinical and objective testing: balance progressions, calf raise endurance and strength benchmarks, and power tests including triple hop, crossover hop and timed lateral hop The role of patient-reported outcome tools: the Cumberland Ankle Instability Tool (CAIT) and FAAM, and why they're useful for tracking progress and motivation Rehabilitation framework: protection and appropriate early loading, followed by strength, stability and mobility phases Managing specific injury types: use of moon boots, orthotics, low-dye taping and ASO ankle braces depending on the structures involved Addressing dorsiflexion loss: why regaining ankle range of motion is often one of the hardest parts of rehab, and the Torillin infographic on identifying the source of restriction Late-stage rehab and return-to-sport: hopping, change of direction, and integrating exercises into an athlete's normal training week for ongoing prevention Bracing and taping as secondary/tertiary prevention strategies to reduce recurrence Long-term consequences of poorly managed ankle sprains, including links to post-traumatic osteoarthritis and eventual ankle surgery The biggest mistake athletes make: assuming rehab is "done" once they can run, despite still having deficits in power, change of direction and stability Lewis's top tip: get every ankle sprain properly assessed, no matter how minor Quotes / takeaways: "It's just a simple lateral ankle sprain... and then someone who goes missing for months at a time." "Four out of ten people who have an ankle sprain go on to develop a chronic instability." "The better quality of the assessment, the more likely there's an accurate diagnosis." "It's really hard to sprain your ankle when it's really well strapped or with an appropriate brace." "Once someone gets running... you can run in a straight line really well and have really considerable deficits still." "Get it assessed.

Stop chasing cheap metrics in your youth only to end up a broken, thirty-five-year-old former athlete who doesn't even know how to properly brace. When high school geometry teachers double as strength coaches, young lifters pay the price decades later with wrecked spines and destroyed joints. Mark Valenti spent seventeen years on the road as a professional Highland Games athlete and Strongman before realizing that the real test of strength begins when the competition stops and you have to rebuild your movement from the ground up. INSIDE THIS CONVERSATION The Three-Phase Motivation Trap: How strength athletes cycle through vanity, money, and avoiding shame throughout a competitive career. Conjugate for Throwers: The exact Westside Barbell adjustments Louie Simmons gave Mark to build world-class power. The Highland Games Reality: Why competing twenty times a year develops elite competitors faster than powerlifting alone. Bracing vs. Breathing: The fundamental core stability mistake that continues to ruin everyday lifters and former high school athletes. Life After the Platform: How to lose one hundred pounds, restore joint mobility, and keep setting new PRs without destroying your body. MEET THE GUEST Mark Valenti is the owner of Blind Dog Gym and a StrongFirst Certified Elite Instructor and Team Leader with more than eighteen years of experience as a professional Highland Games heavy-events athlete. A former world-record holder in the sheaf toss and member of the 2008 World Team Champions, Mark built his strength under throw legend Jud Logan and trained directly at Louie Simmons' Westside Barbell. After retiring from professional competition, he transformed his philosophy of training—earning the 48 kg Beast Tamer Challenge, lifting the legendary Húsafell Stone in Iceland, and pulling a three-times-bodyweight deadlift after age fifty to prove that true performance is built for a lifetime.

Brian Cashman's trade deadline approach has Shaun Morash convinced the Yankees are headed for another crushing disappointment. With catcher still an obvious weakness and the Red Sox pushing for Adley Rutschman, Shaun argues that New York is merely trying to improve instead of building a World Series champion. Evan Roberts agrees a catcher is mandatory but refuses to declare the deadline a disaster before it ends. Shaun also ranks the most exciting Yankees deadline deals of his lifetime, from David Cone to Cecil Fielder. Plus, Howie Rose delivers a brutal line about Jorge Polanco, callers debate the Dodgers' deferred contracts, and the bizarre fishing injury suffered by Mets prospect Gabe Davis leaves everyone searching for answers.

David Stearns refuses to directly confirm that Francisco Lindor is part of the Mets' future, and Tiki Barber and Shaun Morash hear a clear message: Stearns wants him gone. Evan Roberts initially interprets the answer as reassurance, then questions whether his Mets fandom is affecting what he hears. They debate whether a Lindor trade is more likely in the offseason and warn that moving a recent MVP candidate without a major return would be a crushing mistake.

WelcomeHello, lovelies. It's Juliette here.If you feel nothing when your partner touches you, you are not cold and there is nothing wrong with you. This week Andrew and Tristan Tate were arrested in Miami on rape and trafficking charges, which they deny, and which are not proven in court.The Epstein files resurfaced. An old tape of a man bragging about grabbing women played again. While you read it, your body was not only reading headlines. It was gathering evidence about how safe it is to be a woman with a body. So it did the intelligent thing. It braced. A braced body cannot receive, however gentle the hand.This episode is about what lives in the body when we watch this happen and the world shrugs, the manosphere machine that sells young men contempt as masculinity, the good men caught in the middle who genuinely want to help, and how a body that learned to brace comes back: through structure, on your terms, never by surprise.Try tonight (women). Warm, Weight, Where. One hand on your own forearm. Notice the warmth where they meet, let the hand land with its full weight, name the exact edge where you feel it. Ninety seconds of coming back inside a touch that is yours.Try this week (men). Before you touch her, ask, "Can I put my hand here?", and believe her answer.If it is not now, let that be completely fine. No cost, no atmosphere. Ask, believe, no cost. Do it ten times.Women → free masterclass Be Touched, Sunday 26 July, 7pm UK → https://feelfullyyou.com/be-touched-masterclassMen → free guide When She Goes Quiet → https://feelfullyyou.com/when-she-goes-quiet · then the Touch Reset Quiz → https://feelfullyyou.com/touch-reset-quiz
Ken Carman and Anthony Lima analyze the Cleveland Browns' quarterback dilemma, weighing the experience of Deshaun Watson against the potential of Shedeur Sanders. They respond to listener feedback regarding their loyalty to certain players and discuss the impact of coaching decisions on the roster. Additional topics include the recent wave of ESPN layoffs and a surge in World Cup viewership. 02:41 - Browns Quarterback Battle 06:45 - Veteran vs Rookie Logic 12:20 - Fanta Broadcast Bootcamp 18:35 - Shedeur Sanders Upside 24:01 - Ken Defends QB Stance 31:08 - Guardians and ESPN Updates 37:54 - World Cup Ratings Surge
Ken admits he's mentally preparing for Deshaun Watson to win the Browns' starting quarterback job over Shedeur Sanders, walking back some of his earlier optimism for the rookie after hearing from insiders like Albert Breer that no one is running away with the competition. He and Anthony debate whether an older head coach like Todd Monken naturally leans toward the veteran, and second-guess whether Cleveland made the right call passing on younger coaching candidates during the search. The two also touch on LeBron's ongoing free agency saga now stretching past three weeks, with the Heat's accidental press conference leak still the biggest "update."
Bird lovers near ground zero, where the first detected case of H5N1 bird flu landed on our shores, are steeling themselves for a busy period protecting wildlife. The flu strain has been confirmed in a sick sea bird found on Wellington's Petone Beach late last week. Now, a charity bird hospital nearby is setting up quarantine facilities to treat sick native birds if a flu outbreak takes hold. Sammy Carter reports.

Ireland was on the fringe of the heat dome that seared much of Europe for several days late last month.In some parts of the country temperatures exceeded an uncomfortable 32 degrees and the hot spell ended with unseasonable thunderstorms and hail showers.Why is this happening?Climate scientists have recently warned that El Niño would impact temperatures in Europe this year, so is that why two heatwaves arrived in June, one delivering record-breaking temperatures?The June event was called a “heat dome” but what is that and what causes it?Another intense heatwave is forecast for Europe, beginning on July 5th.Recording-breaking temperatures are produced by climate change and they are something scientists have warned about for decades. So why is Ireland so behind in implementing policies that would help reduce our dependence on fossil fuels.Caroline O'Doherty, the climate and science correspondent with The Irish Times, explains.Presented by Bernice Harrison.

This Day in Maine for Tuesday, June 30, 2026.
Episode Overview With Dr. Drew Lansdown away (and reportedly playing golf in Scotland), Brian and Nirav dive deep into the sports medicine landscape of the FIFA World Cup 2026. The episode covers the unique injury patterns in soccer, what surgeons and physicians need to understand about treating elite soccer players, and the injury prevention strategies that have strong data behind them. Key Topics Covered Why Soccer Produces High Rates of Non-Contact Injuries • ACL tears are the defining non-contact injury in soccer ◦ Soccer is the #1 sport played by female athletes — a population with well-established higher ACL tear rates ◦ Quick acceleration, deceleration, and multi-directional cutting movements are intrinsic to the sport ◦ Cognitive load during play (split-second decision-making while in the air) increases landing mechanics risk ◦ Classic example: the Wayne Rooney-type ACL — trying to split a defender while thinking two steps ahead leads to a mis-step • Game structure contributes to higher injury numbers ◦ 11 players per side means more total athletes on the field ◦ Longer games (90 minutes vs. basketball or football quarters) ◦ Combined effect: more player-hours of exposure per match Load Management & the World Cup Context • The World Cup paradox: fewer games per week than top club players are used to ◦ Example: Erling Haaland at Manchester City — club season + qualifiers + Champions League stacks up to more games/week than the World Cup ◦ The bigger concern is cumulative seasonal load, not the World Cup schedule itself • The World Cup is essentially an off-season add-on for elite players ◦ Comparable to asking NBA athletes to play the NBA season and then immediately compete in the Olympics • Travel is likely less of a factor than commonly assumed ◦ Elite clubs already manage heavy international travel; accommodations are often top-tier • Early specialization a compounding factor ◦ Many World Cup players have been playing since age 10–13 with little cross-sport participation, contributing to long-term cumulative load ◦ Notable exception: Norway — athletes there tend to play multiple sports ACL Surgery Considerations for Soccer Players • Graft selection overview ◦ Bone-Patellar Tendon-Bone (BPTB): traditional gold standard — caveat is patella fracture risk with early falls onto the knee ◦ Quad Tendon: recent JBJS meta-analysis showed marginal superiority, but difference not clinically significant; less commonly used in soccer given importance of quad strength ◦ Hamstring ± Lateral Extra-Articular Tenodesis (LAT): widely used in the Premier League, largely driven by the influence of Andy Williams' work with top clubs • Return-to-play timeline ◦ Uniformly 9–12 months regardless of graft choice ◦ Phased rehab: gait & coordination → strength → agility → sport-specific • Key structural differences in elite soccer player care ◦ Academy pipeline provides high-quality early medical access — similar to minor league baseball feeder systems ◦ Bracing: elite soccer players use far fewer post-op braces and return-to-sport braces vs. American football or basketball athletes ◦ Less post-op bracing is not associated with worse outcomes in this population Hamstring Injuries in Soccer • Most common injury type in soccer globally • High-speed sprinting is the primary mechanism ◦ The hamstring functions eccentrically during the late swing phase of sprinting — peak load occurs just before foot strike ◦ The injury moment is often at the point of maximal lengthening under force • Grading and prognosis ◦ Grade 1 (mild strain): return in 1–2 weeks ◦ Grade 2 (partial tear): 3–6 weeks depending on location and extent ◦ Grade 3 (complete rupture or proximal avulsion): potentially surgical; weeks to months • Proximal hamstring avulsions deserve specific attention ◦ Complete proximal avulsions (from the ischial tuberosity) are increasingly managed operatively in athletes ◦ Strong evidence for surgical repair in high-demand athletes who want to return to competitive sport • Nordic hamstring curls: effective prevention tool (discussed later in injury prevention section) Ankle Injuries • Lateral ankle sprains are extremely common in soccer ◦ The ATF (anterior talofibular ligament) is most commonly injured ◦ Mechanism: plantar flexion + inversion, often from landing on another player's foot • The challenge of ankle turf toe and high ankle sprains ◦ Syndesmotic (high ankle) injuries are less common but significantly longer recovery — 6–10+ weeks • World Cup-specific context: artificial turf used in some venues ◦ Turf surfaces change force transmission through the ankle and may increase injury risk compared to natural grass Muscle Cramps: A World Cup Staple • Muscle cramping is ubiquitous in World Cup play — especially in heat/humidity ◦ Not a sign of poor conditioning — even elite players cramp ◦ Players accustomed to cooler climates (Northern Europe) are particularly susceptible • Mechanism: combination of dehydration, electrolyte depletion, and neuromuscular fatigue • Cramping is functionally debilitating even though it is not a structural injury • Treatment/prevention: aggressive electrolyte repletion ◦ Pickle juice: Brian and Nirav discuss — strong evidence in ultra-endurance contexts; electrolyte content is the likely mechanism ◦ Bananas, electrolyte drinks, gels — all have their place ◦ "Anything that repletes electrolytes" will help — athlete preference matters The Theatrics — Diving, Flopping & the Mystery Spray • Why do elite athletes go down so dramatically? ◦ Getting kicked in an unprotected lower extremity genuinely hurts — shin guards are getting smaller (Nirav jokes about a quarter-sized guard his daughter uses) ◦ Foul strategy: falling can draw calls or stop play — gamesmanship is real • The spray — what is it? ◦ Best evidence: a topical cooling spray similar to Icy Hot or ethyl chloride ◦ Temporarily numbs the skin and superficial nerve endings at the contusion site ◦ Not a structural fix — purely symptomatic/neurological effect on acute pain ◦ The shock of impact often wears off naturally — the spray may assist with that transition Injury Prevention — What the Data Actually Shows • FIFA 11+ Program ◦ Developed by FIFA and extensively validated in peer-reviewed literature ◦ Components: core strengthening, glute/hamstring activation, agility drills ◦ Consistent reduction in injury rates by approximately 50% ◦ How to find it: search "FIFA 11+ injury prevention" (not just "FIFA 11" — that returns the video game) ◦ Widely implemented at elite levels; underutilized in youth soccer where practice time is dominated by skill drills and scrimmaging • Nordic Hamstring Curls ◦ Strong and growing evidence for both hamstring injury prevention AND ACL injury risk reduction ◦ Works by strengthening the hamstring eccentrically — addressing the exact mechanism of hamstring strains ◦ Compliance challenge: extraordinarily difficult to perform correctly, especially in older athletes ◦ Brian and Nirav agree: nearly impossible to complete a full set, especially with added weight • Implementation gap: what gets done vs. what works ◦ Youth coaches prioritize the "fun stuff" — drills, scrimmage — over warm-up protocols ◦ 15 minutes of evidence-based warm-up is a hard sell when kids are paying for club-level coaching and want to play Clinical Pearls for Practitioners • Graft selection for soccer players is multifactorial — consider quad strength demands and fall-on-knee risk before defaulting to BPTB • Post-op bracing: the European/Premier League model of minimal bracing in elite soccer players is worth considering — less may be more in highly compliant athletes • Proximal hamstring avulsions in competitive athletes warrant surgical consultation — non-operative outcomes in this population are often unsatisfactory • Cramping ≠ poor conditioning — counseling athletes and families on this distinction is important • FIFA 11+ should be part of any soccer athlete's injury prevention conversation, especially in youth programs • Nordic curls: prescribe them, warn patients they are difficult, and set realistic expectations Quotable Moments "The World Cup paradoxically is actually fewer games per week than a lot of these players are used to." — Dr. Feeley "It's like asking NBA athletes to come in, play the NBA season, and then play in the Olympics." — Dr. Feeley on cumulative load "Our youngest now uses something the size of a quarter... that's her shin guard." — Dr. Pandya on evolving shin guard trends "Nordic curls are almost impossible. That's why you see people doing them." — Dr. Feeley "Anything that repletes electrolytes is going to be beneficial." — Dr. Feeley on cramping management Please subscribe to our podcast at Apple PodcastsCheck out our website on Simplecast
I went from being a single mom who handled every single thing alone for years — to being a married woman with a man who genuinely wanted to show up for me. And I almost could not let him.Not because he was not everything. Because I had been bracing for the worst for so long I forgot that good things were even an option for me.If you have ever gotten good news and immediately started waiting for the catch, if someone has tried to show up for you and your first instinct was to question the ease, if you have been so strong for so long that receiving feels almost foreign to you — friend, this episode is for us.IN THIS EPISODEWe are going all the way into the identity of the woman who has learned to expect the worst — and how she becomes the woman who can actually hold space for the best. Bracing is not just a habit you picked up. It is an identity you built to protect yourself. And it worked — until it started keeping out everything you said you wanted.We talk about why women are natural receivers and how the "I handle everything alone" identity quietly shuts that capacity off. And what it actually takes to put the shield down safely, learn who is safe to receive from, and start letting the good things land.→ Why bracing for the worst is an identity, not just a thought pattern → How to stop filtering every signal through the worst-case scenario and start asking what it might be pointing you toward → Why strong women who have done everything alone struggle to receive — and why that capacity never actually left → The difference between being naive and being a woman who has done enough work to take the armor off → A three-step practice for learning to receive — starting small, building trust, and staying open long enough to find out if something is actually goodTIMESTAMPS:00:00 Why I Made This01:07 For the Strong Woman03:07 Single Mom Survival Mode04:08 When Help Feels Unsafe05:45 Bracing Becomes Identity08:33 Signals or Invitations10:39 Put Down the Armor11:30 Journal Prompts Offer12:16 Practice Receiving Steps15:04 Final EncouragementGET YOUR JOURNAL PROMPTSWant to go deeper on this episode?

Have you ever told someone, "I'm not an optimist, I'm a realist" because the whole "good vibes only" thing seems irritating, and you don't want to set yourself up for disappointment? A lot of us brace for the worst on purpose. We think if we expect the worst, we'll either be right or pleasantly surprised. But bracing for disaster can be bad for your health. My guest today is Dr. Deepika Chopra — a clinical health psychologist known as The Optimism Doctor® and the author of The Power of Real Optimism. Some of the things we discuss are: What real optimism actually looks like in the middle of grief, stress, or a bad diagnosis The difference between real optimism and toxic positivity — and why "just think positive" can make people feel worse The question that opens the door to a different outcome without forcing you to fake a feeling The surprising physical health benefits of optimism Why optimism is a learnable skill The a one-minute end-of-day practice that rewires your brain to become more optimistic Why awe is even more powerful than gratitude for shrinking anxiety My top three strategies for becoming a real optimist starting today Related Episodes 259 - Feel Hopeless? 5 Habits That Bring Hope Back Fast with Dr. Julia Garcia 306 — You Don't Need to Feel Strong to Be Strong Links & Resources The Power of Real Optimism Connect with the Show Buy a copy of 13 Things Mentally Strong People Don't Do Connect with Amy on Instagram — @AmyMorinAuthor Visit my website — AmyMorinLCSW.com Sponsors Helix Sleep —Go to helixsleep.com/STRONGER to get 20% off sitewide AirDoctor — Head to AirDoctorPro.com and use promo code STRONGER to get UP TO $300 off today!

Jim Geraghty is back! Join Jim and Greg for the Tuesday 3 Martini Lunch as Jim recaps his two-week trip reporting on national security in Finland, Latvia, and Poland. Jim explains how Finland is on guard against Russian mischief on the water and beyond, how Latvia's government folded while he was there, how the U.S. is helping Polish defenses, and just how much the Finns love their saunas.First, Jim recounts joining Finnish forces on patrol in the Gulf of Finland, where authorities closely monitor suspicious Russian-affiliated vessels and other potential security threats. He explains how Finland has built one of Europe's most elaborate and extensive facilities in anticipation of a possible conflict with Russia that they hope never happens. And how he ended up eating Rudolph the Red-Nosed Reindeer.Next, Jim takes us to Latvia, which was in a full-blown political crisis while he was there, all due to some wayward Ukrainian drones. Jim explains what happened ,how it led to the prime minister's resignation, and what is expected to happen next.Then, it's on to Poland as Jim explains how his hosts were very pleased to see military help arriving from the U.S. - both in terms of troops and weapons.Finally, Jim explains the deep love the people of Finland have for their saunas.Please visit our great sponsors:Noble GoldDownload the free investor kit.
