The Rickey Smiley Morning Show kicks off with a sharp look at global and political headlines, starting with President Trump’s announcement of a U.S.–brokered peace deal between the Democratic Republic of Congo and Rwanda—despite skepticism from experts who note that rebel groups weren’t included and conflict remains ongoing. The team also examines concerns over the U.S. benefiting from Congolese minerals while Congolese citizens remain on the American travel ban list. Meanwhile, in a story that stunned listeners, the crew discusses the tragic shooting death of Chicago mother Remika Meeks-Blackmon, with new details showing the alleged shooter was romantically tied to the same man—who shockingly fist-bumped her afterward.

The insurance industry often hires for pedigree: the right degree, the right school, and a polished background. But my guest, Misty Carson, proves that grit outperforms a resume every time. Her journey starts in extreme poverty in a trailer park, navigating life as a teen mom, and leads all the way to the top of the insurance game.In this episode, Misty shares the raw reality of how she went from surviving to thriving. We discuss how she translated the hustle of the car sales floor into insurance success, why non-traditional talent is the industry's biggest missed opportunity, and how she turned being "battle-tested" into her greatest competitive advantage. This is the story of what happens when you refuse to let your circumstances define your future.▶▶ Sign Up For Your Free Discovery Callhttps://calendly.com/aneary/strategy-sessionKEY MOMENTS(00:00:00) She Went From Poverty to Top Producer (00:00:56) The Origin Story: Escaping Poverty and Defying the Odds (00:07:06) The Turning Point: Learning to Bet on Yourself (00:09:34) How Selling Cars Prepared Her to Dominate Insurance (00:18:49) Why the Best Producers Don't Always Have "Perfect" Resumes (00:24:28) "Battle-Tested": Turning a Hard Past Into a Powerful BrandCONNECT WITH ANDY NEARY

Race relations and health equity are among the pressing social issues being discussed at Thriving Together Atlanta’s Equitable Dinners series. Since January 2020, more than 12,000 people from across the metro Atlanta area have gathered for challenging conversations over a hot meal, with a side of performance art. Program Manager Adria Kitchens joins “Closer Look” to talk more about the origin and impact of the Equitable Dinners series. According to an Atlanta-area broker, the metro area has seen a negative net migration - meaning more people are moving out than moving in. That’s in addition to new data that says Atlanta is now among 39 metro areas that recently flipped from being an affordable place to buy a home to being a place where it’s now cheaper to rent. Scott Pratt, a real estate broker and owner of Pratt & Associates Realty, talks more about the housing market, the Trump administration’s proposed 50-year mortgage plan and explains why he still encourages people to become homeowners.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

In this episode of the Grow A Small Business Podcast, host Troy Trewin interviews Mitch McGinley, founder of Boutique Fitness Broker, joins the podcast to share how he transformed a struggling yoga studio into a 5× exit and went on to help over 70 owners sell their businesses. He talks about growing his brokerage to $20M in annual deals, the emotional ups and downs of exiting, and the common mistakes owners make when preparing for a sale. Mitch opens up about navigating COVID, learning disciplined focus, and building a business that now supports his dream life in Spain. His journey blends resilience, smart strategy, and deep passion for helping small business owners achieve life-changing exits. Why would you wait any longer to start living the lifestyle you signed up for? Balance your health, wealth, relationships and business growth. And focus your time and energy and make the most of this year. Let's get into it by clicking here. Troy delves into our guest's startup journey, their perception of success, industry reconsideration, and the pivotal stress point during business expansion. They discuss the joys of small business growth, vital entrepreneurial habits, and strategies for team building, encompassing wins, blunders, and invaluable advice. And a snapshot of the final five Grow A Small Business Questions: What do you think is the hardest thing in growing a small business? Mitch McGinley says the hardest thing in growing a small business is learning how to say no. He explains that owners constantly get pulled in different directions — ideas, opportunities, people, problems — and without the discipline to say no, you end up overwhelmed and unfocused. What's your favorite business book that has helped you the most? Mitch McGinley says his favorite business book is "Built to Sell" because it clearly explains how to shape a business into a scalable, well-structured operation that can run without the owner and eventually be sold for strong value, making it one of the most useful guides he's ever read. Are there any great podcasts or online learning resources you'd recommend to help grow a small business? Mitch McGinley says there are many great podcasts and online learning resources to help grow a small business, but instead of naming just one, he recommends continuously listening to a wide variety of shows and learning platforms because each one offers unique perspectives, lessons, and insights that can help business owners improve their skills, sharpen their thinking, and stay adaptable as their business grows. What tool or resource would you recommend to grow a small business? Mitch McGinley says that the number one tool or resource he recommends for growing a small business is artificial intelligence, because owners who don't embrace AI right now risk falling behind, while those who use it can save time, make smarter decisions, improve marketing, and operate far more efficiently. What advice would you give yourself on day one of starting out in business? Mitch McGinley says the advice he would give himself on day one of starting out in business is simply "It's gonna be okay." He explains that the journey is full of stress, doubt, and unexpected challenges, but looking back, he realizes that things always work out when you stay consistent, keep learning, and push through the hard moments.

Wir schreiben den 29.November. ÖsterreicherInnen haben also noch genau einen Monat Zeit ihre Depotleichen aus dem Keller zu holen und mit Verlust zu verkaufen. Das macht in einem Bullenjahr wie 2025 umso mehr Sinn, weil man in diesem Jahr bestimmt schon den einen oder anderen Gewinn realisiert hat, sprich Aktien mit Gewinn verkauft hat.  Erst dann, wenn man Gewinne realisiert, fällt die  Kapitalertragssteuer KEST auf die Kurssteigerung an. Solange man seine gewinnbringenden Aktien im Depot belässt und nicht verkauft, zahlt man auch keine Steuern auf den bisherigen Wertzuwachs. Die zahlt man wirklich erst beim Verkauf des Wertpapiers. Und diese zu zahlende KESt kann man elegant reduzieren, wenn man bei Verkäufen realisierte Gewinne  gegenrechnet und dann nur den reduzierten Gewinn versteuern muss. Für Deutsche, die in Deutschland veranlagen  ist zu Jahresende keine so große Eile geboten, weil sie realisierte Verluste in diesem Jahr auch noch mit Kapitalerträgen im nächsten  gegenrechnen dürfen und umgekehrt. Österreicherinnen dürfen nur Gewinne und Verluste aus dem selben Jahr gegenrechnen. In Deutschland gibt es für Gewinne auch einenFreibetrag von 1000 Euro, der KEST-frei ist. So etwas gibt es in Österreich nicht. Hört sich jetzt alles kompliziert an, ist es nicht: Der Brokeroder die Bank rechnen nämlich  realisierte Gewinne und Verluste automatisch für den Anleger gegen und führen auch die zu zahlende  KESt automatisch ab. Wie viel die KESt immergerade ausmacht, weisen sie  auch im Depot aus, so dass man weiß, ob man für die Steueroptimierung vielleicht doch nochmehr Verluste in diesem Jahr realisieren sollte oder nichtVöllig auf sich gestellt, was Steuerberechnung und Abführungbetrifft ist man auch, wenn die Bank oder der Broker, bei dem man das Depot eröffnet, in Österreich keine steuerliche Vertretung hat, was nicht alle Neobroker etwa aus Deutschland  haben; Flatex und Trade Republic zum Glück schon. Bei den meisten anderen ausländischen Brokern muss man dann selbst mit dem Fiskus abrechnen. Die Neobrokerunterstützen ihre Kunden zwar mit Daten bei den Steuerberechnungen, es ist trotzdem mühsam weshalb ich persönlich nur einen Broker mit steuerlicher Vertretung in Österreich wählen würde. Während Erträge auf dem Sparbuch übrigens nur mit 25 Prozent besteuert werden fällt bei allen anderen Kapitalerträgen der erhöhte Steuersatz von 27,5 Prozent an und das unabhängig davon, wie lange man ein Wertpapierhält. Das betrifft Kupon- und Zinszahlungen von Anleihen und anderen Schuldverschreibungen ebenso wie Dividendenzahlungen, Kursgewinne beim Verkauf von Wertpapieren und Einkünfte aus Derivaten. Besteuert werden auch die laufenden Erträge aus Investmentfonds, das sind Ausschüttungen oder ausschüttungsgleiche Erträge. Wenn man zu viele Gewinne realisiert und eigentlich garnicht so viel Leichen im Depot hat, kommt man vielleicht auf den Gedanken, dass man solide Aktien, die vielleicht gerade im Minus mit Verlust verkauft – Verluste realisiert – und sie sich dann im nächsten Jahr wieder im selben Ausmaß oder mehr kauft. Kein dummer Gedanke aber von der Finanz nicht goutiert und die kontrolliert das inzwischen streng: Man darf Aktien nicht nur der Steueroptimierung halber verkaufen und wieder kaufen, Achtung. Hier gibt es keine wirklich „Cooling-off-period“  - aber einen Monat muss man bestimmt verstreichen lassen, damit man nicht in den Steueroptimierungsverdacht kommt.

The Industry Relations Podcast is now available on your favorite podcast player! Overview In this episode, Rob and Greg dive into the newly surfaced Zillow–Compass court documents, a leaked Zillow strategy plan, and Mike DelPrete's analysis of the preliminary injunction hearing. They also discuss the broader market context—from the real cost of living in 2025 to generational tension—and debate whether the lawsuit will meaningfully change industry behavior. The conversation closes with predictions, stakes, and possible compromise paths between Compass and Zillow. Key Takeaways A "must-read" macro article kicks off the show. Rob discusses a Substack piece on the U.S. poverty line and how outdated metrics distort today's economic reality. Zillow and housing affordability tie back into the industry. The leaked Zillow strat plan is unusually strong. Both hosts agree the internal document is one of the most robust strategic plans seen in real estate, showing detailed situational analysis and clear tactical pathways. MLSs should study its structure. Compass vs. Zillow: The PI hearing matters. Rob argues the preliminary injunction ruling may reshape industry norms more than the eventual trial. If Compass wins, Zillow may need to pivot fast. If Zillow wins, Compass may face recruiting and retention issues. DelPrete's takeaway: "Nothing will change." Greg leans toward this view, citing industry inertia. Rob disagrees, pointing to long-term structural shifts like MLS loss of compensation and NAR's diminishing relevance. Broker exclusives and 3PM are the core battle. The debate centers on whether private/preview listings harm consumers or empower brokers. Greg doubts the model's long-term viability; Rob sees competitive incentives that could drive proliferation. Potential compromise ideas emerge. The hosts float options such as removing Days on Zillow, hiding public price-change history, or creating a paid Zillow product for private listings. No clear middle ground exists yet. Predictions and a steak-dinner bet. Both tentatively lean toward Compass having a better storytelling advantage in court, though the outcome is far from certain.

"I love working with people who aren't afraid to own up to their mistakes. Integrity is the most important thing to me." - Cara KirschWhat is the secret to a perfect broker-partner relationship?

Ben Brady welcomes back a true fan favorite — Shannon Mesritz, Broker with McClung Realty Group and longtime member of the Harcourts family. Shannon was one of the very first guests ever on this podcast (years before it became what it is today), back when he was running auctions in San Francisco at the height of COVID. But Shannon's history with Harcourts goes far deeper than that. He began his real estate career with Harcourts in Australia over a decade ago, helped launch the auction platform in Oregon, returned home briefly, then came back to the U.S. to build the Bay Area auction marketplace before transitioning into his own traditional sales business, now consistently closing 40+ transactions a year.This episode dives into the one tool Shannon created during his auction days that has since become a critical part of his traditional real estate business: the Active Competition Study — a ranking-based pricing system that shows sellers exactly where their home sits within the current market. Forget sold comps. Forget “gut feeling” pricing. Shannon's spreadsheet ranks a property against its live competition based on price, price-per-foot, days on market, and buyer viewership performance — creating a data-driven roadmap for pricing, repositioning, and securing meaningful price reductions without the emotion, ego, or guesswork that typically derails a listing.Ben and Shannon break down why this method works in every market cycle, how it exposes overpricing instantly, why most agents accidentally misprice listings by relying too heavily on historic sales, and how this tool has helped move more than $250M+ in inventory across multiple U.S. markets. Whether you're an auction agent or traditional-only, this episode will fundamentally change how you analyze competition, present value to sellers, and protect your listings from becoming “market stale.”Timestamps & Key Topics:[00:00:00] – Welcome back, Shannon Mesritz: fan favorite + long Harcourts history[00:00:34] – Shannon's decade-long journey: Australia → Oregon → Bay Area → back to Oregon[00:01:16] – Why the Active Competition Study matters NOW more than ever[00:01:51] – How shifting markets expose overpricing instantly[00:02:37] – The “buyer hat” concept — and why agents almost never wear it[00:03:49] – Using live competition (not sold comps) to determine true value[00:05:05] – The psychology of price reduction conversations[00:06:17] – How Shannon built the tool during high-stakes SF auction campaigns[00:08:54] – Why most agents misinterpret square footage pricing[00:10:24] – Ranking categories: price, price-per-foot, days on market, view performance[00:12:06] – How to widen search radius and find “real” competitive data[00:13:45] – Using viewership trends as the ultimate indicator of buyer rejection[00:15:28] – When a listing isn't selling: market issue vs property issue[00:17:02] – How the tool secured an 11% reduction on a Portland listing[00:18:40] – Why sellers trust this system more than agent opinion[00:20:07] – The listing presentation: how to pitch this strategy and win[00:21:56] – The biggest mistake agents make when positioning a property[00:23:14] – How this tool helped move $250M+ in Bay Area inventory[00:25:10] – Final takeaways: challenge your assumptions & think like a buyer

In this special episode, Gresh begins with a thought experiment: if he were starting his business journey today, knowing what he knows now, how would he approach it, specifically focusing on lead generation. He recalls the constant desire during his own path to be ahead of where he started. He notes that the perennial challenge in this type of business remains how to effectively generate leads, acknowledging that there is no single, solid, established "new formula" for this crucial process, prompting a need for continuous experimentation. Drawing inspiration from listening to an entrepreneur's long-form content, the speaker realizes that the key focus should not be merely on the quantity of leads, but their quality.  Ultimately, Gresham concludes that if he were to start over, he would pivot his entire focus to becoming a specialist lead generation company. Instead of handling the entire broker process (calling, qualifying, and guiding), he would generate quality leads and then partner with established brokers, splitting the commission.  Blue Star Franchise: bluestarfranchise.com Browse the Franchise Inventory: bluestarfranchise.com/franchise Is franchising right for you?

There is a dangerous myth in the industry that building a personal brand means you never have to pick up the phone again. Producers start posting on LinkedIn and assume the leads will just roll in, using content as an excuse to avoid the hard work of prospecting. It's a mindset that leads to a dry pipeline and missed targets.My guest, Micah Salas, proves that the most effective strategy is doing both. Despite being a top producer with a published book and a strong following, he still commits to making 40 cold calls every single day. In this episode, he breaks down the math behind his daily volume, why he believes "more is still more," and how combining a strong reputation with high-volume outreach makes every dial more effective.

In a recent episode of the How I Met My Broker podcast, hosts Liam Garman and Hung Chuy sit down with Steve Maroun, director at Lanevick, to unpack the realities of stepping from investing into property development. Maroun shares how his journey began after his family lost everything but their home during the global financial crisis (GFC), which pushed him to abandon a law degree and learn property development from the ground up. By knocking on doors, taking on hands-on jobs like painting fences and renovating kitchens, and eventually buying the house next door as his first project, he effectively created his own "degree" in development. Throughout the episode, Maroun and Chuy stress that development is not for the faint-hearted, demanding resilience, adaptability, and the ability to tackle projects "one bite at a time". They explain that successful developers need to master four key pillars – finance, construction, sales, and town planning/design – to identify a site's highest and best use and navigate regulations. A key theme is the power of complementary partnerships, illustrated by Maroun's design and construction expertise, combining with Chuy's financial strategy to unlock value on a complex Western Sydney site. For aspiring developers, they emphasise education, understanding the end buyer and council objectives, building a strong expert team, embracing innovations such as prefab and 3D printing, and honestly assessing whether development suits one's life stage and risk appetite.

This week on Power House, Diego sits down with Robert Pieklo, the president and CEO of eLEND, formerly known as American Financial Resources. Rob is a passionate advocate for wholesale and has led eLEND in a 900% growth period in the wholesale channel. Robert talks about why he believes the broker channel creates the ultimate competitive environment that benefits consumers, how eLEND competes with giants through nimble execution and superior capital markets strategies, and why he thinks current MSR valuations are built on unrealistic assumptions.

Most employers are wasting money on "cost containment" solutions that nobody uses. They buy a 1-800 number or a wellness app, hoping for savings, but get zero engagement because employees don't trust a stranger at a call center. If your advocacy solution has no engagement, it has zero ROI. It's like playing slots in the "Healthcare Casino"—you keep putting money in, but the house always wins.Real ROI requires real trust. My guest, Matt McQuide of Synergy Healthcare, joins me on The Broker's Voice to break down the financial impact of Embedded Clinical Advocacy. We discuss why assigning a dedicated nurse to a specific client (not a random voice on a phone line) is the only way to drive the engagement necessary to redirect care and prevent catastrophic claims. This is the strategy for turning advocacy from a line item expense into a massive return on investment.▶▶ Sign Up For Your Free Discovery Callhttps://calendly.com/aneary/strategy-sessionCONNECT WITH ANDY NEARY

"People do more research on buying a refrigerator than they do on buying their health plan. And so I saw that as a level of brokenness that I felt... we as consultants could actually make a profound impact." - Trey HalbertThe old-school, transactional broker is dead. My guest this week, Trey Halbert, CEO of ExperINS, joins the show to discuss the rise of the modern "Strategic Consultant" and what that evolution means for employers.Trey breaks down the playbook for this new, elevated role. We discuss why consultants must align the benefits program with the C-suite's core business strategy, not just the HR department. We also explore how AI is not a threat, but a powerful tool to augment advisors by handling menial tasks (like contract review), freeing them up for the high-level critical thinking and problem-solving where humans truly add value.This entire shift is part of a bigger journey: moving from a career focused on success and "resume virtues" to one focused on significance and "eulogy virtues."Tune in for a high-level discussion on the future of benefits consulting!Chapters:(00:00:00) Aligning Benefits with the C-Suite: The Modern Consultant's Playbook (00:06:23) The Evolution of Self-Funding (00:15:05) Why Consultants Are More Critical Than Ever (00:20:46) The Power of a Peer Network (True Network) (00:29:07) Speaking to the C-Suite, Not Just HR (00:35:51) How Benefits Drive Business Valuation (00:43:19) How AI Will Augment, Not Replace, Brokers (01:04:35) The "No A**holes" Rule & Building CultureKey Links for Social:@SelfFunded on YouTube for video versions of the podcast and much more - https://www.youtube.com/@SelfFundedListen/watch on Spotify - https://open.spotify.com/show/1TjmrMrkIj0qSmlwAIevKA?si=068a389925474f02Listen on Apple Podcasts - https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/self-funded-with-spencer/id1566182286Follow Spencer on LinkedIn - https://www.linkedin.com/in/spencer-smith-self-funded/Follow Spencer on Instagram - https://www.instagram.com/selffundedwithspencer/

What's really driving sustainable freight pricing right now? And how are data, regulation, and carrier relationships reshaping the industry heading into 2026? Let's start this week by discussing why sticking to a disciplined, data-backed pricing strategy is the true path to long-term lane ownership and stronger carrier partnerships, why volume is the profit driver, and how brokers can win by removing emotion from their pricing decisions. Also hear some insights about the back solicitation clauses and how overreaching contracts destroy trust instead of building it,  the 17,000 potentially invalid CDLs coming out of California, and the need for uniform national standards to protect road safety and supply chain security!   Resources / References https://www.overdriveonline.com/business/article/15771476/broker-threatens-to-sue-trucking-company-over-back-solicitation https://www.freightwaves.com/news/california-cdl-fight-signals-national-enforcement-scrutiny  

At last month's Insurance Leadership Forum, Leader's Edge podcast host Zach Ewell sat down with Jochen Körner, CEO of Ecclesia Group, and Warren Downey, Group Chief Executive Officer of Specialist Risk Group, for a candid and wide-ranging conversation. The two leaders unpack how a major deal between their firms came together, offer sharp insights on the surge of brokers entering the continental European market, and reflect on how recent elections are reshaping their strategic priorities.

In this episode, Gresh discusses the importance of execution over merely having a playbook, noting that while the franchising model supplies a detailed roadmap, success hinges on the founder's ability to actually implement it. He also mentions challenges such as client layoffs, under‑delivering strategy sessions, and weighing the ROI of a mentorship program he feels isn't paying off. Despite the hurdles, Gresh emphasizes the power of networking. He recounts gaining referrals through a BNI group, which led to a promising conversation about a potential franchisor. He acknowledges that consistent outreach—especially to people affected by layoffs—is essential, even if the volume of responses can be low. Looking ahead, he plans to focus his time on networking, continue incremental outreach.

On today's wide-ranging program, Ralph welcomes David Dayen of “The American Prospect” to discuss the Democrats caving on the shutdown. Then, Ralph speaks to Dani Noble from Jewish Voice for Peace about their BDS campaigns, efforts to block weapons shipments to Israel, and the state of the ceasefire in Gaza. Finally, Ralph speaks to original Nader's Raider Sam Simon about his new memoir, “Dementia Man: An Existential Journey.”David Dayen is the executive editor of the American Prospect, an independent political magazine that aims to advance liberal and progressive goals through reporting, analysis and debate. His work has appeared in the Intercept, HuffPost, the Washington Post, and more. He is the author of Chain of Title: How Three Ordinary Americans Uncovered Wall Street's Great Foreclosure Fraud and Monopolized: Life in the Age of Corporate Power.If Congress is saying: We have the power of the purse, and we have the ability to dictate to the President what he is able to do or not do with federal funding, then why not go the whole way? To me, that was the entire purpose of the shutdown— to stop the President from ignoring Congress and initiating his own prerogatives as it relates to government funding. It is really making Congress completely irrelevant in the process which they constitutionally are supposed to dictate.David DayenEvery time Trump has been in power and there's been a national election, he's lost it. He lost the midterm elections in 2018. He lost the presidential election in 2020. He lost the off-year elections in 2017 and 2019. He lost (just last week) the elections in 2025. He is not equipped to have an agenda that appeals to the American people when he's in power. And so I firmly agree that Democrats are likely to do well in the elections next year, as they just did. The one thing that can stop that is: completely punching your base in the face, after you succeed politically in backing Republicans into a corner.David DayenDani Noble is a Strategic Campaigns Organizer at Jewish Voice for Peace.Israel bonds (which very few people know much about) are direct loans to the Israeli military and government. They are unrestricted. They have no guardrails around what those funds can be used for, et cetera. And this is a main way that the Israeli military and government generate an unrestricted slush fund to be able to continue their genocidal assault on Gaza, to continue funding for the atrocities being committed against Palestinians—even as their government and economy suffers and/or operates with a massive deficit.Dani NobleThis bill would essentially block the Trump administration from delivering some of the deadliest weapons to Israel. So it's an essential, essential step in what we need to do fundamentally—which is a full arms embargo to stop arming the Israeli military and government…It's the most supported piece of legislation in support of Palestinian rights that we've ever seen.Dani NobleSam Simon is an author, playwright, and attorney. His new book Dementia Man: An Existential Journey is based on his award-winning play of the same name.There's also a social cost. A sense that everything I've ever built personally—my cars, my homes, my savings—that were all going to be available as a legacy to my family, they have to be spent in my few years of my life just to keep me alive. There needs to be a community response to that—and that's shorthand for the government. It doesn't force people to go broke to stay alive.Sam SimonNews 11/14/25* This week, Democrats on the House Oversight Committee released a new tranche of over 20,000 pages of documents related to infamous financier and sex criminal Jeffrey Epstein. These documents include damning emails between Epstein and various high-power individuals like Steve Bannon, former Treasury Secretary Larry Summers and current U.S. Ambassador to Turkey Tom Barrack. However, the emails that have received the most attention are those regarding President Donald Trump. In these emails, Epstein claimed Trump “knew about the girls,” and claimed that, “i [i.e. Epstein] am the one able to take him [i.e. Trump] down.” Perhaps most shocking, Epstein claims to have been with Trump during Thanksgiving in 2017, according to NBC. If true, it would directly contradict Trump's repeated insistence that he had no contact with Epstein since their falling out in the mid 2000s, either 2004 or 2007, per PBS.* The newly released Epstein files reinforce another narrative as well: that Epstein was an asset for Israeli intelligence. Drop Site news has done excellent reporting on Epstein helping to “Broker [an] Israeli Security Agreement With Mongolia,” “Build a Backchannel to Russia Amid [the] Syrian Civil War” and “Sell a Surveillance State to Côte d'Ivoire.” Most recently the independent outlet has published an expose on Epstein's relationship with known Mossad spy Yoni Koren. According to this piece, “Epstein's personal calendars reveal that…[Koren] lived at Epstein's Manhattan apartment for multiple stretches between 2013 and 2016.” There is also evidence that Epstein wired money to Koren. However, the reasons behind this transfer, and the details of their relationship, remain murky.* More Epstein information is likely to be released in the coming days. This week, the longest ever government shutdown in American history concluded with capitulation by centrist Democrats in the Senate. However, the conclusion of the shutdown finally broke the logjam over the swearing-in of Adelita Grijalva, the newly elected Democratic Congresswoman from Arizona. Grijalva immediately fulfilled her vow to be the 218th signature on the Discharge Petition forcing a vote on the release of the Epstein files, joining all 213 other House Democrats and four Republicans, Reps. Thomas Massie, Marjorie Taylor Greene, Lauren Boebert and Nancy Mace, per the Hill. In her first speech, Grijalva emphatically stated, “Justice cannot wait another day.” House Speaker Johnson has promised to bring the matter to a vote next week and many Republicans who did not sign the petition are expected to vote for it, with sponsors angling for a veto-proof majority. At that point, all eyes will turn to the Senate.* Even still, the Democrats blinking in the government shutdown showdown has infuriated many members of Congress, candidates and Democratic-aligned organizations, who are now calling for Chuck Schumer to step aside as Senate Minority Leader. Journalist Prem Thakker is keeping a running tally of these calls, which so far includes 12 Congressional Democrats – with major names like Pramila Jayapal, Mark Pocan, Rashida Tlaib, and Ro Khanna among them – along with candidates like Seth Moulton, Mallory McMorrow, Saikat Chakrabarti and Graham Platner. Beyond these individuals however, this call has been echoed by groups ranging from Our Revolution to Social Security Works to College Democrats of America, among many others.* Moving to economic matters, one other consequence of the protracted government shutdown is that the Bureau of Labor Statistics was “largely idle,” meaning it did not collect the crucial fiscal information it is responsible for gathering, including October jobs numbers and Consumer Price Index changes. According to POLITICO, White House spokesperson Karoline Leavitt said this information is unlikely to ever be released. She of course blamed that on the opposition in Congress, saying “Democrats may have permanently damaged the federal statistical system.” This is somewhat laughable, as the Trump administration has all but gone to war with the economic data collection functions of the federal government whenever that data has made him look bad.* Another bad sign for the economy in general, and for consumers in particular, is the rise of what are generously called “Flex Loans.” A new investigation by ProPublica in partnership with the Tennessee Lookout, examines the rise of this new strain of ultra-high-interest loan, with annual interest rates as high as 279.5%. This, combined with a lending cap of $4,000 – nine times higher than a traditional payday loan – has led to Advance Financial, the leading lender in Tennessee, suing over 110,000 people across the state since 2015. According to the data, judgments against consumers usually end up in the thousands, and 40% result in garnished wages. Loans of this variety were illegal before 2015, but the Tennessee legislature allowed them through and while the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau has sought to protect financial services consumers from these types of predatory lending schemes, the Trump administration's attempts to kneecap the agency have rendered it powerless.* Meanwhile, a dearth of consumer protections is yielding horrific consequences in a completely different area: AI. A new CNN report details how ChatGPT encouraged a Texas 23-year-old, Zane Shamblin, to kill himself. In heart-wrenching detail, this story paints a picture of Shamblin on the edge of suicide, and the AI chatbot helping to push him towards death. As Shamblin held a gun to his own head, the bot wrote, “You're not rushing. You're just ready,” later adding, “Rest easy, king…You did good.” According to this piece, the chatbot “repeatedly encouraged [Shamblin] as he discussed ending his life” for months, and “right up to his last moments.” Shamblin's parents are now suing ChatGPT's parent company, OpenAI, alleging the company endangered their son's life by, “tweaking its design last year to be more humanlike and by failing to put enough safeguards on interactions with users in need of emergency help.” The victim's mother, Alicia Shamblin, is quoted saying, “I feel like it's just going to destroy so many lives. It's going to be a family annihilator. It tells you everything you want to hear.”* In more positive consumer protection news, former Biden FTC Chair Lina Khan has hit the ground running in her new role helping to manage the transition for New York City Mayor-elect Zohran Mamdani. Per Semafor, Khan has been “scouring city and state laws — some overlooked by past mayors and some too new to have been tested yet — for legal footing for Mamdani's priorities.” Apparently, “Khan has privately discussed targeting hospitals that bill patients for painkillers available more cheaply at corner drugstores and sports stadiums charging nosebleed prices for concessions,” and “Other avenues for enforcement include a new state law that requires companies to tell customers when they are using algorithmic pricing. The law took effect this week, forcing Uber and DoorDash to start disclosing, but the incoming Mamdani administration plans to police laggards.” In short, it seems like the incoming Mamdani administration will use any and all legal and administrative means at their disposal to bring down costs for New Yorkers – as he promised again and again during the campaign. And, if there is one consumer regulator who can accomplish this, it is Ms. Khan.* Turning to Hollywood, Variety has published a major new piece on newly-minted Paramount CEO David Ellison's first 100 days. This piece covers everything from his attempts to curry favor with President Trump to the battle to acquire Warner Bros. Discovery. Buried within this story is an indication that “Paramount maintains a list of talent it will not work with because they are deemed to be ‘overtly antisemitic.'” The criteria for this modern blacklist however is opaque, especially troubling given that Ellison has deputized Bari Weiss – an ardent Zionist and censor of pro-Palestine speech – as the “Editor-in-chief” of CBS News. According to Drop Site, the studio “recently condemned a filmmakers' boycott of Israeli institutions signed by Emma Stone, Mark Ruffalo, Tilda Swinton, Javier Bardem, and Olivia Colman, among more than 4,000 others, declaring that Israel is carrying out genocide and apartheid.” Would Ellison blacklist these stars for “overt antisemitism”?* Finally, for some good news, the Economist is out with a stunning article on the success of China's transition to renewable energy. In the much-quoted opening paragraph, this piece reads “The SCALE of the renewables revolution in China is almost too vast for the human mind to grasp. By the end of last year, the country had installed 887 gigawatts of solar-power capacity—close to double Europe's and America's combined total. The 22m tonnes of steel used to build new wind turbines and solar panels in 2024 would have been enough to build a Golden Gate Bridge on every working day of every week that year. China generated 1,826 terawatt-hours of wind and solar electricity in 2024, five times more than the energy contained in all 600 of its nuclear weapons.” If that doesn't demonstrate the horizon of what is possible, given the requisite political will and determination, I don't know what will.This has been Francesco DeSantis, with In Case You Haven't Heard.

Agency leaders make a fatal assumption: that their million-dollar producers are self-sufficient. The reality is, these all-stars drive 80% of your revenue, and they're often the most neglected. They're a massive flight risk, not because they're unhappy, but because they're stuck.The strategies that got your top producers to their first million won't get them to the next level—they've hit a new plateau and need a new set of tools. In this episode, I'm giving you the new framework for supporting your best people. We get into why building their personal brand is the only strategy that matters for scaling, how to use platforms like LinkedIn to build their credibility, and why the agencies that "rent the brands of their producers" are the only ones who will win the future.▶▶ Sign Up For Your Free Discovery Callhttps://calendly.com/aneary/strategy-sessionKEY MOMENTS(00:00:00) Why Your Top Producer Is About to Quit (00:00:47) The Fatal Flaw: Neglecting Your Top Producers (00:04:44) The 80/20 Problem: Your Revenue Is at Risk (00:05:31) The Scaling Solution: Building Their Personal Brand (00:14:09) The New Agency Model: Rent Their Brand, Not YoursCONNECT WITH ANDY NEARY

Jeffrey Epstein's saga was never just the story of a sex-trafficking billionaire; it was the story of how power, intelligence, and money fuse into a single machine of influence. Documents released by the House Oversight Committee and reporting from outlets such as Drop Site revealed that Epstein's Manhattan apartment hosted figures like Yoni Koren, a senior Israeli intelligence officer tied to former Prime Minister Ehud Barak. Leaked emails and calendar entries show wire transfers, coded errands, and meetings that overlapped with Barak's dealings with former CIA Director Leon Panetta and other defense officials. These records—paired with years of silence from major media—suggest that Epstein operated as a broker of access, moving seamlessly between finance, technology, and national-security circles while prosecutors, politicians, and governments looked the other way.Behind the procedural delays and partisan noise in Washington lies the same motive that shielded Epstein in life: protection of the powerful. The stalled congressional vote to release the full, unredacted “Epstein files” reflects bipartisan fear of what the documents might confirm—that the scandal wasn't an anomaly but a glimpse of how the modern intelligence economy actually works. Epstein's homes, jets, and investments formed a web where blackmail, espionage, and profit overlapped. Whether he acted as asset or opportunist remains unproven, but the surviving records make clear that his network touched the highest levels of state and corporate power. What's at stake in the fight over those files isn't gossip—it's the map of a system built to ensure that truth itself remains classified.to  contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.com
