Shoot us a Text.Episode #1288: Buy-sell activity ramps up as more dealerships and franchises change hands in Q4. Meanwhile, Volkswagen dealers launch a 600-store class action over Scout's direct-sales plan, and Ford patents a smart door system designed to prevent dents, injuries, and awkward parking lot moments.The dealership buy-sell market closed 2025 strong. Transaction count only ticked up slightly to 112, but the stores and franchises behind those deals hit multi-year highs — a delayed release from a slower first half shaped by tariff uncertainty and longer deal timelines.Dealerships trading hands jumped 19% to 163, while franchises involved surged 35% to 261 year-over-year.Stellantis led all brands with 25 CDJR stores changing hands — more than double Q4 2024Chevrolet came in second with 24 stores sold, driven by what Kerrigan Advisors calls "tremendous demand" tied to GM's domestic manufacturing position and relatively clean EV write-downsA group of VW dealers has filed a class-action lawsuit representing roughly 600 U.S. dealers, challenging Scout Motor's plan to sell vehicles directly to consumers.Dealer Fred Ippolito, didn't hold back, saying: “Volkswagen built their success on the backs of the dealer network, and now they're putting knives in the backs of the same dealers that helped them grow in this country.”Scout CEO Scott Keogh says the direct model is simply more efficient for modern automotive retail: “You can be dramatically more efficient with every single car that you make and exactly where that car goes.”VP of Commercial Operations Cody Thacker said the company repeatedly hears customers asking for direct sales, noting: “We have heard over and over again, ‘Please give me an alternative.' You see that there is very little trust in auto dealers today.”Ford may be trying to save your car door—and your neighbor's paint job. A newly surfaced patent reveals a smart door system designed to slow or stop a door before it hits nearby objects, combining sensors, software, and a mechanical brake.Ford's patented system uses accelerometers and obstacle sensors to detect how quickly a door is opening and whether something is in its path.If a collision is likely, a small mechanical brake with springs and pads engages to slow or stop the door—preventing dents, dings or worse.The design intentionally includes mechanical components to avoid the reliability issues sometimes seen with fully electronic systems.Door safety is getting more attention across the industry. Kia recalled 51,000 Carnival minivans after sliding doors continued closing on obstacles, causing several injuries.Today's show is brought to you by iPacket Value.

The Golden Crew is back, and this week Trevor is NOT dead — despite his best efforts to convince everyone otherwise. After a dramatic week of faking strep throat, sending blinking GIFs, and getting his wife Megan to photograph the inside of his throat for a very skeptical Teladoc doctor, Trevor has somehow survived to podcast another day.On the cruise news front, we've got a big week! The Carnival Sunshine went full blackout — losing power, propulsion, AND sanitation at 2 AM while returning to Norfolk. Tugboats, delayed embarkation, and a $25 onboard credit were involved. We break it all down. Then we talk about the Carnival Conquest's fresh glow-up out of dry dock, including the new Heroes Tribute Bar honoring our military veterans and active duty service members — and yes, the arcade came up too.We also touch on Puerto Vallarta's temporary removal from Carnival's Mexican Riviera routes (Jen is on the Costco update desk, so stay tuned to the Facebook group), and the 2026 Cruiseline.com Member Choice Awards — spoiler: Royal Caribbean swept basically everything and the crew has thoughts.And finally... waffle cones. We somehow end up in a deeply committed conversation about soft serve, cruise hacks, and things we probably should not describe in a family-friendly podcast description. You'll just have to listen.

The Carnival's MemoryBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/darkest-mysteries-online-the-strange-and-unusual-podcast-2026--5684156/support.Darkest Mysteries Online

Daniel and Luis dive into what it meant growing up during the era of true “It Girls” (Pamela Anderson, Carmen Electra, J.Lo) and why that phenomenon feels completely gone today. From celebrity crush debates to how “types” shape friendships, the conversation quickly spirals into cruise culture, class jokes, and why Carnival cruises apparently have a reputation.The guys also react to recent Covino & Rich moments—everything from Rich's controversial take on frozen meat, his obsession with kids “leaving the house,” and whether he's projecting more than he realizes. Add in Taylor Swift documentaries, Landman confusion, Vegas Golden Knights pride, and live chat chaos, and you've got a classic After Show episode.This one's about nostalgia, growing older, changing priorities, and laughing at how seriously we all take ridiculous things.Chapters / Timestamps0:00 – Episode 323 kicks off4:10 – Vegas Golden Knights fandom & community pride6:00 – The last generation of “It Girls”9:30 – Topanga, celebrity name-dropping & Rich lore12:00 – Nostalgia, language quirks & growing up Mexican16:30 – Carnival cruises vs Royal Caribbean (apparently a thing?)20:15 – Landman scene confusion & dorm roommate chaos24:30 – Taylor Swift documentary commitment issues29:00 – Frozen meat controversy (Rich strikes again)41:00 – Wrapping up with live chat reactionsKeep Up With Us:Tuesday Live Show Direct Link ► / https://tinyurl.com/tasbl Tiktok ► / https://www.tiktok.com/@aftershowblTwitter ► / https://x.com/aftershowblInstagram ► / https://www.instagram.com/aftershowblFacebook ► / https://www.facebook.com/AfterShowBLYouTube ► / https://www.youtube.com/c/aftershowblCNR Submissions FB Group ► / https://www.facebook.com/share/g/1D4Ymc8qYn/After Show But Later Merch:https://www.amazon.com/dp/B096YRQDYR/ref=cm_sw_em_r_mt_dp_GTV3XYFDB6SVNY767EMFContact Us:928-235-5285

Fluent Fiction - Italian: Carnival of Hearts: How One Night Changed a Family's Bond Find the full episode transcript, vocabulary words, and more:fluentfiction.com/it/episode/2026-02-28-23-34-02-it Story Transcript:It: Le luci del Carnevale brillavano con colori vivaci nella piccola sala da pranzo della famiglia di Luca.En: The lights of Carnevale shone with vivid colors in the small dining room of Luca's family.It: Gli addobbi, un po' sbiaditi, appesi con cura da molti anni, creavano una calda atmosfera di festa.En: The decorations, slightly faded but carefully hung for many years, created a warm festive atmosphere.It: Tutt'intorno, i profumi del cibo italiano - lasagne fumanti, arancini dorati e zeppole dolci - rendevano l'aria accogliente e familiare, nonostante le tensioni nascoste tra i presenti.En: All around, the scents of Italian food - steaming lasagna, golden arancini, and sweet zeppole - made the air welcoming and familiar, despite the hidden tensions among those present.It: Luca sedeva in un angolo del tavolo, osservando attento le persone che amava: sua sorella Giovanna, sempre energica e un po' ribelle, e suo fratello maggiore Marco, tranquillo ma spesso distante.En: Luca sat in a corner of the table, attentively watching the people he loved: his sister Giovanna, always energetic and a bit rebellious, and his older brother Marco, calm but often distant.It: I genitori cercavano di sorridere, nascondendo vecchi rancori mai dimenticati.En: The parents tried to smile, hiding old grudges never forgotten.It: Luca desiderava da tempo un'atmosfera diversa, più serena, un desiderio che sembrava sempre sfuggirgli di mano durante questi incontri.En: Luca had long desired a different, more serene atmosphere, a wish that always seemed to slip out of reach during these gatherings.It: La conversazione iniziò tranquilla, con scambi di battute sulla vita quotidiana.En: The conversation started quietly, with exchanges about daily life.It: Ma non passò molto tempo prima che un vecchio argomento spinoso emergesse, come una pentola a pressione pronta a esplodere.En: But it didn't take long before an old thorny subject emerged, like a pressure cooker ready to explode.It: Marco, con tono tagliente, ricordò un vecchio debito mai appianato con il padre.En: Marco, with a sharp tone, brought up an old debt never settled with their father.It: Gli occhi di Luca incontrarono quelli preoccupati di sua madre.En: Luca's eyes met his mother's worried ones.It: Si sentiva responsabile, nella sua timidezza, di dare una svolta alla serata.En: In his shyness, he felt responsible for turning the evening around.It: Inaspettatamente, Luca prese un respiro profondo e si intromise con calma: "Ricordate quella volta, al Carnevale dell'anno scorso, quando la mamma aveva vinto la gara delle maschere?"En: Unexpectedly, Luca took a deep breath and calmly intervened: "Remember that time, last year's Carnevale, when mom won the costume contest?"It: Un sorriso debole comparve sulle labbra di sua madre.En: A weak smile appeared on his mother's lips.It: "E voi, Marco e Giovanna, eravate i primi a correre per assaggiare le chiacchiere?En: "And you two, Marco and Giovanna, you were the first to run for the chiacchiere?"It: ", continuò Luca, cercando di mantenere il tono vivace.En: continued Luca, trying to keep the tone lively.It: Le tensioni sembrarono sciogliersi per un momento.En: The tensions seemed to melt away for a moment.It: Giovanna rise, ricordando una battuta buffa che Marco aveva fatto quel giorno.En: Giovanna laughed, recalling a funny joke Marco had made that day.It: La conversazione prese una piega più leggera mentre tutti iniziarono a raccontare i loro momenti preferiti dei Carnevali passati.En: The conversation took a lighter turn as everyone started sharing their favorite moments from past Carnevali.It: L'umore si alleggerì, e anche se tra qualche sottile battuta c'era ancora la traccia di vecchi dissapori, sembrava che qualcosa fosse cambiato.En: The mood lightened, and even though there was still a trace of old resentments in some subtle jokes, it seemed that something had changed.It: Tuttavia, un nuovo disaccordo rischiava di accendersi quando Luca, con un coraggio che non sapeva di avere, alzò la mano.En: However, a new disagreement threatened to arise when Luca, with a courage he didn't know he had, raised his hand.It: "Per favore," disse con voce pacata ma decisa, "per stasera, lasciamo da parte le discussioni.En: "Please," he said with a calm but firm voice, "for tonight, let's set aside the arguments.It: Siamo qui insieme, e non capita spesso.En: We are here together, and it doesn't happen often.It: Festeggiamo questo Carnevale ricordando ciò che ci tiene uniti."En: Let's celebrate this Carnevale by remembering what keeps us united."It: Ci fu un attimo di silenzio, interrotto solo dal rumore delle posate che si fermavano sui piatti.En: There was a moment of silence, interrupted only by the sound of silverware pausing on the plates.It: La famiglia si guardò intorno, forse imbarazzata dalla sincerità di Luca.En: The family looked around, perhaps embarrassed by Luca's sincerity.It: Poi, lentamente, la madre di Luca scoppiò in una risata sincera, seguita dal padre e poi dagli altri.En: Then, slowly, Luca's mother burst into a sincere laugh, followed by the father and then the others.It: Quella sera, i membri della famiglia si aprirono un po' di più l'un l'altro, complici di risate genuine e piccoli gesti affettuosi.En: That evening, the family members opened up a little more to one another, accomplices in genuine laughter and small affectionate gestures.It: Non tutte le questioni furono risolte, ma un piccolo ponte era stato costruito grazie al coraggio di Luca.En: Not all issues were resolved, but a small bridge had been built thanks to Luca's courage.It: Mentre la cena volgeva al termine, Luca si sentì più sicuro, sapendo che la sua voce, per quanto timida, aveva un potere che poteva cambiare le cose.En: As the dinner drew to a close, Luca felt more confident, knowing that his voice, however timid, had a power that could change things.It: E in quell'atmosfera un po' caotica ma felice, capì che la gentilezza e l'amore potevano risplendere persino tra le ombre più scure.En: And in that slightly chaotic yet happy atmosphere, he understood that kindness and love could shine even among the darkest shadows.It: La piccola sala da pranzo sembrava, infine, più accogliente di quanto non fosse mai stata.En: The small dining room finally seemed more welcoming than it had ever been.

covered with colorful confetti and maschere di Carnevale.It: Giulia, con sciarpa e cappotto, camminava accanto a Marco e Lorenzo, suoi amici d'infanzia, verso l'Acquario di Genova.En: Giulia, with a scarf and coat, walked next to Marco and Lorenzo, her childhood friends, towards the Acquario di Genova.It: Per Giulia, quel luogo era una fonte di meraviglia e ispirazione.En: For Giulia, that place was a source of wonder and inspiration.It: "Finalmente," disse Giulia con un sorriso incerto.En: "Finally," said Giulia with an uncertain smile.It: Era una studentessa di biologia marina, appassionata del mondo sottomarino.En: She was a marine biology student, passionate about the underwater world.It: Tuttavia, da qualche giorno si sentiva debole e con la testa che girava.En: However, for a few days, she had felt weak and dizzy.It: Non aveva voluto rimandare la visita, nonostante quel mal di testa costante.En: She didn't want to postpone the visit, despite that constant headache.It: All'interno dell'acquario, l'atmosfera era calda e viva.En: Inside the aquarium, the atmosphere was warm and lively.It: I bambini correvano entusiasti, gli occhi spalancati davanti ai pesci variopinti.En: Children ran enthusiastically, their eyes wide in front of the colorful fish.It: Le voci rimbombavano attraverso le sale, mescolandosi al suono dell'acqua che scorreva nei giganteschi serbatoi.En: Voices echoed through the halls, blending with the sound of water flowing in the gigantic tanks.It: Giulia si avvicinò al primo grande serbatoio.En: Giulia approached the first large tank.It: "Guarda, Marco!En: "Look, Marco!It: I pesci pagliaccio!"En: The clownfish!"It: esclamò, cercando di nascondere il malessere crescente.En: she exclaimed, trying to hide the growing discomfort.It: Voleva raccogliere dettagli e cogliere spunti per la sua tesi, ma la testa le girava sempre di più.En: She wanted to gather details and gain insights for her thesis, but her head spun more and more.It: "Sicura di stare bene, Giulia?"En: "Are you sure you're okay, Giulia?"It: le chiese Lorenzo preoccupato, notando il pallore sul suo viso.En: Lorenzo asked her with concern, noticing the pallor on her face.It: "Sì, sì, sono solo un po' stanca," lei mentì leggermente.En: "Yes, yes, I'm just a bit tired," she lied slightly.It: Sentiva di non potersi permettere di fermarsi.En: She felt she couldn't afford to stop.It: Arrivarono finalmente davanti alla vasca principale dell'acquario, il cuore pulsante del luogo.En: They finally arrived in front of the aquarium's main tank, the beating heart of the place.It: Una volta davanti, Giulia fu sopraffatta dalla bellezza del panorama marino.En: Once there, Giulia was overwhelmed by the beauty of the marine panorama.It: Squali, manta e meduse danzavano in un equilibrio tranquillo e maestoso.En: Sharks, rays, and jellyfish danced in tranquil and majestic harmony.It: Ma proprio allora, il mondo intorno a lei cominciò a roteare.En: But just then, the world around her began to spin.It: "Devo sedermi un attimo," disse, appoggiandosi al vetro.En: "I need to sit down for a moment," she said, leaning against the glass.It: Si sedette lentamente accanto alla vasca, mentre i suoi amici restavano accanto a lei, preoccupati.En: She sat slowly next to the tank, while her friends stayed by her side, worried.It: Con lo sguardo fisso nell'acqua, Giulia iniziò a rilassarsi.En: Staring into the water, Giulia began to relax.It: Osservava il movimento delle meduse, ipnotiche nei loro movimenti.En: She observed the movement of the jellyfish, hypnotic in their movements.It: Lentamente, fece una scoperta: le meduse seguivano un ritmo particolare, quasi come una danza.En: Slowly, she made a discovery: the jellyfish followed a particular rhythm, almost like a dance.It: La sua mente cominciò a lavorare, dimenticando per un momento la debolezza fisica.En: Her mind began to work, forgetting for a moment the physical weakness.It: "Vedi?En: "See?It: È come se si muovessero a tempo," mormorò a Marco e Lorenzo.En: It's as if they move in time," she murmured to Marco and Lorenzo.It: Quel movimento poteva essere l'idea che cercava per la sua tesi.En: That movement could be the idea she was looking for for her thesis.It: Nel silenzio che seguì, Giulia capì una cosa importante: a volte, fermarsi e respirare non significa perdere un'occasione, ma trovarne una nuova.En: In the silence that followed, Giulia realized something important: sometimes, stopping and breathing doesn't mean missing an opportunity, but finding a new one.It: Quando fu il momento di tornare all'hotel, il malessere si era attenuato.En: When it was time to return to the hotel, the discomfort had subsided.It: Si alzò con l'aiuto dei suoi amici, sentendosi più forte.En: She stood up with the help of her friends, feeling stronger.It: Fuori l'Acquario, le maschere di Carnevale continuavano a sfilare, colorando la città in festa.En: Outside the Acquario, the maschere di Carnevale continued to parade, coloring the city in celebration.It: "Grazie per avermi accompagnato," disse Giulia con un sorriso grato.En: "Thank you for coming with me," said Giulia with a grateful smile.It: "Figurati," rispose Marco, "ci hai regalato una giornata indimenticabile."En: "Don't mention it," replied Marco, "you gave us an unforgettable day."It: Mentre tornavano verso casa, Giulia si sentiva diversa.En: As they headed back home, Giulia felt different.It: Aveva imparato a bilanciare il suo desiderio di conoscenza con l'importanza di ascoltare il suo corpo.En: She had learned to balance her thirst for knowledge with the importance of listening to her body.It: E aveva scoperto che l'ispirazione può arrivare in momenti inaspettati.En: And she had discovered that inspiration could come at unexpected moments.It: E così, con il cuore leggero e lo sguardo rivolto al futuro, mentre il Carnevale animava le vie della città, Giulia si preparava a trasformare il suo sogno in realtà.En: And so, with a light heart and eyes set on the future, while the Carnevale enlivened the city's streets, Giulia prepared to turn her dream into reality.

This Friday episode begins with an apology from Andy after a missed opportunity to discuss Kevin Roy (and his dad, Patrick) as part of our preview of The Cognizant Classic. Brendan moves things along to an early check-in at the South African Open where George Coetzee withdrew after a poor start, ending his run in this week's Game Within a Game. Another Game Within a Game participant is Ernie Els, who Andy claimed "looked a little husky" on the range. This Ernie discussion ushers in a brand-new Champions Tour Minute after Andy and PJ heard from a well-placed source that the "next big thing" on the senior circuit is not Tiger Woods or Zach Johnson, but another 50-year-old waiting to make his debut. The bulk of this episode focuses on some comments from pre-tournament press conferences at The Cognizant Classic in The Palm Beaches. Shane Lowry believes that the overseed course setup by the Tour's Championship Management has dramatically altered this event from a tough test to now something that looks green on television. Billy Horschel tried to shift the blame off the Tour and to the resort at PGA National, but Andy and Brendan aren't giving them the benefit of the doubt. This issue with the setups is even further exemplified at this week's KFT event at the Jockey Club, with Andy saying that the Tour has "completely ruined so many places." Ryan Gerard, the betting favorite at this event, also had some things to say before he teed off. Gerard has been a focus of the Tour's marketing efforts this week and Brendan thinks this can be a model for future "PGA-B" events potentially making stars. Gerard shared a story about playing with Scottie Scheffler and how Scottie manages to bridge the gap between clubs by playing a high-launching shot. Gerard has been chasing that shot and believes he has it, hoping that it'll lead to success at the majors this year. Brendan then shares a Flashback Friday segment on the 1991 Honda Classic, won by Steve Pate. This story has it all, including a legendary overclub challenge by Paul Azinger and a scorekeeper finding a lost ball.

Com va el Carnaval? —va preguntar Pere mentre es sacudia la neu lleugera del seu abric.En: "Hey, Núria! How's the Carnival going?" asked Pere as he shook the light snow off his coat.Ca: —Va bé, Pere! I tu? T'has disfressat? —respongué Núria amb un somriure juganer.En: "It's going well, Pere! And you? Have you put on a costume?" Núria replied with a playful smile.Ca: Pere deixà escapar una rialla i s'assegué a la petita taula de fusta prop de la finestra.En: Pere let out a laugh and sat at the small wooden table near the window.Ca: Malgrat el seu somriure, Núria notà quelcom en els ulls de Pere.En: Despite his smile, Núria noticed something in Pere's eyes.Ca: Una ombra, una preocupació, que no havia vist abans.En: A shadow, a worry, that she hadn't seen before.Ca: Les seves sospites es confirmaren quan trobà una carta entre les seves llibretes que havia caigut a terra: era del banc.En: Her suspicions were confirmed when she found a letter among the notebooks that had fallen to the ground: it was from the bank.Ca: Pere tenia problemes econòmics.En: Pere was having financial problems.Ca: Conèixer el secret la deixà inquieta.En: Knowing the secret left her uneasy.Ca: Sabia que havia de fer alguna cosa, però no volia arriscar la seva amistat.En: She knew she had to do something, but she didn't want to risk their friendship.Ca: —Pere, et puc preguntar una cosa? —digué Núria mentre li servia una tassa de cafè.En: "Pere, can I ask you something?" said Núria as she served him a cup of coffee.Ca: —És clar, Núria. Què passa? —respongué Pere, prenent la tassa amb un somriure afectuós.En: "Of course, Núria. What's up?" replied Pere, taking the cup with an affectionate smile.Ca: —He trobat... alguna cosa. Sé que estàs passant per un moment difícil —va dir ella, amb la veu una mica tremolosa.En: "I found... something. I know you're going through a hard time," she said, her voice a little shaky.Ca: El somriure de Pere es va esvair lentament.En: Pere's smile slowly faded.Ca: La mirada oberta es tornà més tancada.En: His open look turned more closed.Ca: —Has trobat la carta, oi? —va preguntar ell, baixant la vista cap a la tassa.En: "You found the letter, didn't you?" he asked, lowering his gaze to the cup.Ca: Núria assentí, sentint el pes de les paraules entre ells.En: Núria nodded, feeling the weight of the words between them.Ca: Pere suspirà, i per un moment, el soroll alegre de la torrefactora semblà allunyar-se.En: Pere sighed, and for a moment, the cheerful noise of the roastery seemed to fade away.Ca: —Núria, no sabia com dir-t'ho.En: "Núria, I didn't know how to tell you.Ca: Ha estat difícil mantenir la feina i cuidar de casa meva —va admetre Pere, la veu plena de sinceritat.En: It's been hard to keep the job and take care of my home," admitted Pere, his voice full of sincerity.Ca: —Pots comptar amb mi, Pere.En: "You can count on me, Pere.Ca: Estic aquí per ajudar-te —va dir ella amb determinació, agafant la mà de Pere sobre la taula.En: I'm here to help you," she said with determination, taking Pere's hand over the table.Ca: Pere aixecà els ulls i va somriure amb agraïment.En: Pere looked up and smiled with gratitude.Ca: La preocupació als seus ulls minvà una mica.En: The worry in his eyes eased a bit.Ca: La sinceritat de Núria i la seva oferta d'ajuda li alleugeriren el cor.En: Núria's sincerity and her offer of help lightened his heart.Ca: El Carnaval continuava fora, el so de les rialles i els tambors omplint l'aire.En: The Carnival continued outside, the sound of laughter and drums filling the air.Ca: Dins aquell espai càlid, Núria i Pere es van adonar que l'amistat pot ser un refugi, un suport en els moments més difícils.En: Inside that warm space, Núria and Pere realized that friendship can be a refuge, a support in the most difficult times.Ca: I així, a mesura que el cafè es refredava, les seves paraules i la seva sinceritat encenien una nova força en la seva connexió.En: And so, as the coffee cooled, their words and sincerity ignited a new strength in their connection.Ca: Aquest hivern, a la torrefactora càlida de Barcelona, una amistat esdevingué més forta enmig dels colors del Carnaval.En: This winter, in the warm roastery in Barcelona, a friendship became stronger amidst the colors of the Carnival.Ca: I les paraules compartides, plenes de confiança, esdevingueren el millor regal d'aquella temporada.En: And the words shared, full of trust, became the best gift of that season.

He was a composer, organist, conductor and pianist of the Romantic Era, that's music that was featured throughout the 19th century. He was a musical prodigy, of course. He had perfect pitch. A grand aunt taught him some piano basics at three, and he was a music pupil at the age of 7. He gave informal performances at the age of 5, and his public debut was at age 10 performing the music of Mozart and Beethoven. He and studied at the Paris Conservatoire starting at age 13 to age 18. His first “job” was a ORGANIST at the Saint Merri Church – 26,000 parishioners. That sounds like a typical trajectory for a young musical prodigy. But, unlike other music students, Saint-Saens had a broad focus. He was a multi-tracker of the day, with varying and distinguished interests such as the study of Latin, Greek, Divinity and Mathematics. He was talented amateur Astronomer throughout his adult life.   In today's podcast I review portions of 4 SAINT-SAENS COMPOSITIONS, pieces composed between 1853 and 1886, or when Saint-Saens was from the age of 17 to 50. We will hear 6 movements from 4 works – those 4 works are Symphony No. 1 Symphony No. 2 Symphony No. 3 Carnival of the Animals

This Day in Legal History: Order 9066On this day in legal history, enforcement of Executive Order 9066 began in earnest following its signing by Franklin D. Roosevelt earlier in February 1942. The order authorized the military to designate exclusion zones and remove individuals deemed security risks from certain areas of the country. In practice, it led to the forced relocation and incarceration of more than 110,000 Japanese Americans, most of whom were U.S. citizens. Families were removed from their homes, businesses were lost, and entire communities were dismantled. The government justified the policy as a matter of national security during World War II. Critics argued it was rooted in racial prejudice rather than military necessity.The constitutionality of the policy reached the Supreme Court in Korematsu v. United States. Fred Korematsu, a U.S. citizen, had refused to comply with the exclusion order and was convicted. In a 6–3 decision, the Court upheld his conviction, accepting the government's claim that the exclusion was justified by wartime necessity. The majority deferred heavily to the executive branch, emphasizing the perceived threat on the West Coast. In dissent, several justices warned that the decision validated racial discrimination under the guise of military urgency.Decades later, the ruling came to be widely regarded as a grave error. In 1988, Congress passed the Civil Liberties Act, formally apologizing and providing reparations to surviving internees. In 2018, the Supreme Court explicitly stated that Korematsu was wrongly decided, rejecting its reasoning even though it was not formally overturned in the technical sense. The episode remains a cautionary example of how constitutional protections can erode in times of crisis.The U.S. Supreme Court is set to hear two cases concerning the scope of the Helms-Burton Act, a 1996 law that allows American companies to sue over property confiscated by Cuba after the 1959 revolution. One case involves ExxonMobil's effort to recover more than $1 billion for oil and gas assets seized by Cuba in 1960. Exxon sued a Cuban state-owned company in 2019, alleging it continues to profit from the confiscated property. A lower court ruled that the Cuban entities could claim foreign sovereign immunity, which generally protects foreign governments from being sued in U.S. courts. Exxon has asked the Supreme Court to reverse that decision.The second case involves four cruise operators—Carnival, Royal Caribbean, Norwegian Cruise Line, and MSC Cruises—accused of unlawfully benefiting from docks in Havana that were originally built and operated by a U.S. company before being seized by Cuba. The docks were used between 2016 and 2019, after travel restrictions were eased under President Obama. A trial judge initially ruled against the cruise lines and awarded more than $100 million in damages, but an appeals court later dismissed the case, finding that the original concession had expired before the cruise lines used the property. The Supreme Court's decisions could clarify how broadly Congress intended the Helms-Burton Act to apply and whether claimants face significant legal barriers when seeking compensation.US Supreme Court to hear Exxon bid for compensation from Cuba | ReutersU.S. Customs and Border Protection announced that it will stop collecting tariffs imposed under the International Emergency Economic Powers Act (IEEPA) beginning just after midnight on Tuesday. The decision comes several days after the U.S. Supreme Court ruled that those tariffs were unlawful. The agency said it would deactivate the tariff codes tied to President Donald Trump's IEEPA-related orders but did not explain why collections continued for days after the ruling. It also did not address whether importers who paid the duties would receive refunds.The suspension of the IEEPA tariffs coincides with the implementation of a new 15% global tariff introduced under a different statutory authority. Customs clarified that the halt applies only to the IEEPA-based tariffs and does not affect other trade measures, including those enacted under Section 232 for national security reasons or Section 301 for unfair trade practices. Economists have estimated that the now-invalidated IEEPA tariffs generated more than $175 billion in revenue and were bringing in over $500 million per day. As a result, the ruling potentially exposes the government to significant refund claims from importers.US to stop collecting tariffs deemed illegal by Supreme Court on Tuesday | ReutersJPMorgan Chase informed President Donald Trump and his hospitality company in February 2021 that it was closing their bank accounts, according to newly released documents tied to Trump's $5 billion lawsuit against the bank and its CEO, Jamie Dimon. The letters were sent about a month after the January 6, 2021, attack on the U.S. Capitol. At the time, several businesses and organizations distanced themselves from Trump, including law firms and the PGA of America.In its February 19, 2021 letters, JPMorgan did not provide a detailed explanation for ending the relationship. The bank stated generally that it may determine a client's interests are no longer served by continuing with J.P. Morgan Private Bank. JPMorgan has previously argued that Trump's lawsuit lacks merit. Trump's legal team, however, claims the letters amount to an admission that the bank intentionally “de-banked” him and his businesses, allegedly causing major financial harm.Trump contends that JPMorgan violated its own policies and unfairly targeted him for political reasons. The newly disclosed letters were submitted as part of the bank's effort to transfer the case from federal court in Miami to New York, where JPMorgan argues the dispute is more closely connected.JPMorgan says it closed Trump's bank accounts a month after Jan. 6 attack | ReutersA federal judge in Florida declined to overturn a $243 million jury verdict against Tesla stemming from a fatal 2019 crash involving the company's Autopilot system. The court found that the evidence presented at trial sufficiently supported the jury's conclusion that Autopilot played a role in the collision, which killed 22-year-old Naibel Benavides Leon in Key Largo. The jury determined that both the driver and Tesla shared responsibility for the crash.Jurors originally awarded $59 million to Benavides' parents and $70 million to her boyfriend, Dillon Angulo, who was injured in the incident. After accounting for comparative fault, the compensatory damages were reduced to about $42.6 million, with the driver found 67% responsible and Tesla 33% responsible. The jury also imposed $200 million in punitive damages against the company.Tesla asked the court to set aside the verdict or grant a new trial, arguing that the damages were excessive and that its conduct did not meet Florida's legal threshold for punitive damages. The company also contended that state law limits punitive damages to three times the compensatory award. The judge rejected these arguments, stating that Tesla was largely repeating points already considered and dismissed during trial.At trial, plaintiffs argued that Autopilot was defective because it could be activated on roads it was not designed for and did not adequately ensure driver attention. They also claimed Tesla overstated the system's capabilities. The driver admitted he had looked away from the road moments before the crash.Tesla Can't Escape $243M Autopilot Crash Verdict - Law360 This is a public episode.

This week on The Sidebar Podcast, Leise Winny and Mr. Royce spiral from vacation energy to death, religion, cereal psychology, and modern relationships — because of course they do.After thanking recent guests, Royce recaps his vacation and explains why he might be too royal for Carnival. The conversation shifts into a Black History Month reflection — including the loss of Rev. Jesse Jackson — and whether the reaper has been working overtime.From there, the episode gets loud. Uncle Luke for Congress? Country halftime shows? Brandy's national anthem performance? Is All-Star Weekend officially dead? Nothing is safe.The second half goes deeper: who's actually more emotional — men or women? Are we all just performing our lives for the internet? Is homeownership still the American dream? Why do modern relationships feel broken? And what does it mean when you keep picking “Froot Loops” instead of substance?It ends with an unexpected dive into Kellogg's history, religion, death, and why maybe — just maybe — we're all a little remedial when it comes to what we choose.Funny. Honest. Slightly unhinged. Classic Sidebar.0:53 — Intro1:15 — Thank you to our guests2:00 — Royce's vacation recap (too royal for Carnival?)6:03 — Black History Month fact & Rev.

I grew up in Iowa where Mardi Gras wasn't really a thing. Then I moved to Baton Rouge for my PhD at LSU—and everything changed. In this episode I'm connecting my love of Mardi Gras, my research on the carnival, and our February theme of TRUST in the most delightfully nerdy way possible. Here's the question: What if chaos is actually a SIGN of trust? Here's what we're covering: Why carnival only works where there is trust (structured freedom not rigid control) What masks reveal about where safety hides (and our modern version of the mask) Why humor is a trust barometer (when teams can't laugh together, fear has entered the room) How controlled chaos builds communal trust (collective ridiculousness = collective vulnerability) The dangerous side: when play turns violent and trust breaks completely The 4 Trust Lessons from Carnival: 1. Trust requires structured freedom. Medieval carnival flipped the social order—servants mocked nobles, priests were parodied. But everyone knew when it started and ended. Trust isn't built through constant control. It's built when people know there's space for expression without the system collapsing. 2. Masks reveal where safety hides. When social risk disappears, honesty increases. Think about it: a sarcastic joke hiding real resentment. "Just kidding" as cover for actual truth. If someone only feels safe telling you the truth through humor—what does that tell you about trust? 3. Humor is a trust barometer. Regimes that lose their sense of humor become fragile. Relationships that can't tease each other anymore signal something is off. Can your team challenge you without fear? Can you and your partner tease each other without defensiveness? If not, trust might be low. 4. Controlled chaos builds communal trust. Everyone looks foolish TOGETHER. This lowers status anxiety and builds connection. You cannot build trust in permanent professional mode. Trust grows when people experience small disruptions together and recover together. The dangerous side: Trust can tolerate tension, critique, and inversion. But trust CANNOT survive betrayal. Carnival works because everyone knows the rules. Trust breaks when the rules change mid-game without consent. The big takeaway: Trust is not control. It's SAFE LOOSENESS. The confidence that we can step into chaos together and return without losing ourselves. Your challenge this week: Where can you create safe looseness in your life, your goals, or your relationships?
