Podcasts about Celsius

In this episode of the Capital Raiser Show, Richard C. Wilson interviews Kevin Harrington—original Shark from Shark Tank, creator of the modern "As Seen On TV" model, and early investor in Celsius. Kevin walks through how he turned unused cable downtime in the 1980s into a billion-dollar infomercial engine, took his company public, and then scaled a global distribution business by syndicating only the proven winners worldwide. He explains why he exited TV at the right time, how he spotted Celsius at $0.10 per share before it became a $20B brand, and why influencer and digital marketing now beat traditional media for consumer products. Kevin also breaks down his philosophy of becoming a Key Person of Influence (KPI)—building your personal brand, writing books, doing 100+ podcasts, and assembling a "dream team" so the best deals and JV opportunities come to you first. He shares lessons from mentoring with Richard Branson, running high-discipline studios, reviewing 1,000+ pitches, and what he looks for in early-stage consumer deals personally and through Cypress Ascendant. If you want to attract better deal flow, build authority in your niche, and operate at true high velocity, this episode is a blueprint.

Mauricio Di Bartolomeo is the co-founder and CSO of Ledn, a leading provider of bitcoin-backed loans. He found Bitcoin during hyperinflation in Venezuela and believes in the future of the digital economy. He has an MBA from the Richard Ivey business school at Western University.Mauricio Di Bartolomeo, the co-founder and CSO of Ledn, recently joined the Bitcoin.com News Podcast to talk about the market.Growing up in Venezuela and experiencing hyperinflation, bank collapses, and capital controls firsthand, Mauricio witnessed the disastrous consequences of a failing government and currency. His family eventually found a solution and "a beam of light" in Bitcoin mining, which allowed his brother to escape the country with his wealth intact on a hardware wallet, an experience that cemented their conviction in Bitcoin as a tool for economic freedom and survival.Mauricio explains how this experience led to the founding of Ledn, a company built to solve the problem faced by Bitcoin miners and holders: the need for financing without having to sell their Bitcoin. He delves into the core value proposition of Bitcoin-backed loans, especially for the emerging world, highlighting that Ledn offers the same rates and terms to clients in Latin America as those in Europe or North America. This capability is providing financial inclusion, giving many in the region their first-ever loan approval, which is a massive, transformative opportunity that traditional banks have historically denied.The discussion pivots to Ledn's decision to transition to a Bitcoin-only company after a period of supporting Ethereum during the Celsius bankruptcy transition. Mauricio outlines the move as a commitment to simplicity and transparency, emphasizing the company's deep belief in the long-term viability and investment case of Bitcoin. The conviction is rooted in the belief that the future of Bitcoin-backed loans is a multi-trillion-dollar opportunity, and Ledn aims to win by focusing on doing Bitcoin-backed loans better than anyone else, adhering to the principle that "the best restaurants have the smallest menus."A crucial component of Ledn's commitment to transparency is its pioneering and ongoing Proof of Reserves protocol. Mauricio details this process, explaining that an independent CPA verifies Ledn holds all the assets it owes its clients by looking at both the asset and liability sides every six months, a cadence the company is moving to monthly. He stresses the vital importance of Proof of Reserves—something all failed crypto lenders like FTX lacked—as a requirement clients should demand, ensuring a company is honestly reporting its liabilities and protecting client assets.The episode also covers the concept of the "new carry trade," which is the strategy of borrowing a weak, constantly-debased currency (like the US Dollar) against a hard, appreciating asset with a finite supply (Bitcoin). Mauricio illustrates this with a client anecdote who was able to buy a house without selling his Bitcoin, which then appreciated fivefold. He explains that this strategy is tax-beneficial and mirrors how the world's wealthy manage their assets, allowing Bitcoin holders to "go short weak dollars and maintain your strong Bitcoin," ultimately helping them grow their net wealth over time.Finally, Mauricio addresses the looming entry of traditional banks into the Bitcoin services space. He argues that Bitcoin-native companies like Ledn have a massive advantage because the banks' fractional reserve model is incompatible with Bitcoin's ethos of full reserves. He cautions users to be skeptical of banks' intentions and collateral practices. Ledn, a regulated business built to operate 24/7 in the volatile crypto market, is focused on building a "Fort Knox" that is designed to outlive its founders and their children, a powerful statement on their commitment to generational wealth and long-term security.To learn more about the company visit Ledn.io, and follow the team on X.

Aujourd'hui, on s'intéresse à une question que beaucoup se posent encore.Laisser son smartphone branché toute la nuit abîme-t-il vraiment la batterie ?Il est devenu impossible de surcharger un smartphone modernePremièrement, les fabricants sont unanimes. Il est devenu impossible de surcharger un smartphone moderne.Les iPhones comme les smartphones sous Android coupent automatiquement l'alimentation quand la batterie de votre téléphones est rechargée à 100%.Mais cela ne veut pas dire que laisser brancher votre smartphone au secteur toute la nuit c'est idéal pour sa longévité.Maintenir branché une batterie lithium-ion à pleine charge crée une tension élevée, ce qui accélère l'usure chimique au fil du temps. Mais le vrai danger, c'est surtout la chaleur générée pendant la recharge, un facteur reconnu comme l'ennemi numéro un de la durée de vie des batteries.Des protections intelligentesLe second point c'est que Apple et Samsung ont à présent intégré à leurs appareils des protections intelligentes pour limiter ces effets.Côté Apple, l'iPhone utilise l'Optimized Battery Charging, qui bloque la charge autour de 80% jusqu'au moment où vous avez l'habitude de débrancher l'appareil. La marque rappelle également que ses batteries fonctionnent idéalement entre 0 et 35 degrés Celsius, et recommande de retirer certains étuis si l'appareil chauffe en charge.Chez Samsung, la fonction Battery Protect limite la charge à 85% pour réduire le stress lié aux longues sessions sur secteur.Et d'autres constructeurs comme Google, OnePlus ou Xiaomi proposent des systèmes comparables, souvent basés sur l'apprentissage de vos habitudes.Certains usages peuvent accélérer l'usureMais il n'en demeure pas moins que certains usages peuvent malgré tout accélérer l'usure.L'exemple le plus parlant est la charge en situation de forte chaleur, que ce soit en plein soleil, dans une voiture ou sous un oreiller.Et l'utilisation intensive pendant la recharge, comme les jeux, le streaming, le montage vidéo, augmente aussi la température interne.Enfin, les câbles et adaptateurs bas de gamme peuvent envoyer un courant instable, source supplémentaire de stress pour des batteries déjà sensibles car déjà vieillissantes.Le ZD Tech est sur toutes les plateformes de podcast !

All the cool kids are doing it! ------------- Another annual UN climate change conference is in the books. So, what did it accomplish? This week, The Guardian's Oliver Milman joins the show to breakdown the results of COP30. We discuss why many thought the conference was underwhelming, the final decisions on a fossil fuel phaseout, finance for adaptation, and improving Nationally Determined Contributions (NDCs). We also talk about the lack of agreement on combating deforestation, the United States failing to show up to COP30, and what's still being said about the Paris Agreement's goal of limiting warming to 1.5 degrees Celsius above pre-industrial levels. Finally, we discuss the crazy fire that broke out during the conference and Oliver's experience covering more optimistic conversations on Artificial Intelligence.  Next, Joseph Winters, who wrote the piece "UN climate talks are built on consensus. That's part of the problem." for Grist joins the show to discuss why so many think the COP process is broken and why it's still super complicated to try to fix it. We look at potential solutions like a majority vote on big decisions as well as more creative ideas to reform consensus. We also examine how these solutions compare to other UN agreements.  Read Oliver Milman's reporting here and his book The Insect Crisis Please consider becoming a paid subscriber to our newsletter/podcast, The Climate Weekly, to help support this show.

Într-o campanie de măsurare a calității aerului coordonată de organizaţiile 2 Celsius, Deutsche Umwelthilfe şi Ecopolis în centrul Capitalei s-au înregistrat concentraţii de particule ultrafine de până la 10-20 de ori mai mari decât limitele recomandate de Organizația Mondială a Sănătății. Acestea nu sunt însă reglementate sau monitorizate sistematic în România. Până vom ajunge acolo, urmăriți în timp real calitatea aerului, prin platforme precum Aerlive sau uRADMonitor și evitați expunerea prelungită în zone intens traficabile.  Dacă tranzitarea este inevitabilă în momente de poluare mare, puteți folosi măşti și nu uitați că puteți cere autorităţilor locale informaţii clare despre senzorii instalaţi şi valorile reale.

Deer Camp week is finally here, and Eric's deer camp buddies show up in full force. Clayton's rocking the rut-stache, Colton makes his podcast debut, Joel's ready to hunt the thick stuff, Mike's on Celsius all caffeinated up, and Eric's just trying to keep the cords plugged in and the bourbon upright. Calls come in, stories fly, and somehow we cover everything from crossbows to childhood trauma, dolphin tattoos, chili debates, Mallort curses, cabin chaos, Kwik Trip addictions, dads getting stuck in trucks, and the annual reminder that nobody gags harder during a gut job than Clayton. Shane calls in to share he's heading to Adams County, Wisconsin. Colton learns what he definitely doesn't want to grow into. And the crew tries (and fails) to stay on a single topic for more than 11 seconds. It's the most unhinged, authentic, big-buck-dreaming, belly-laughing Deer Camp episode we've ever recorded. Sorry, kinda. Good luck this weekend. Stay safe, shoot straight, and may your Mallort shot not curse your season. Presented by Nosler Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

Most entrepreneurs are overpaying the IRS simply because they don't know the game. In this episode, we break down one of the wildest — and completely legal — tax strategies available to business owners right now: using Bitcoin mining equipment to get 100% bonus depreciation while stacking the best-performing asset of the last 15 years.Rich sits down with Colin Yurcisin to expose how Bitcoin mining actually works, why power is the new gold rush, how AI and data-center scarcity are driving Bitcoin miners into insane profitability, and the exact mechanics that let business owners convert ordinary income into Bitcoin with full write-offs up front.You'll hear how Colin went from a $500K tax bill to discovering this loophole, why Bitcoin's scarcity model keeps sending it to new all-time highs, and the dark side of altcoins, NFTs, Celsius, BlockFi, and every other crypto trap people got wrecked on.If you've ever wondered how people legally wipe out massive tax bills while building generational wealth, this conversation is the blueprint.

The KEF boys crawl out of the bye week basement — coffee, Celsius, and bar-vibes in hand — and immediately unload everything that's been boiling since the UCLA meltdown. Nebraska blew another multi-possession lead, and the crew goes full therapy session over whether Matt Rhule is literally manifesting close games into existence. Three-touchdown leads, one-score stress, and the close-game curse all get brought to trial.From there, it's Big Ten identity talk — cold weather, grit, conference toughness — and why Michigan, Northwestern, USC, and Iowa all play a part in the chaos of the national picture. Then the episode goes peak KEF as the boys hype up Ferrari doing the splits and throwing the bones, break down Mr. Gaines eating eight steaks a day and wrestling heavyweight, and preview a stacked week of dual tournaments with Oklahoma State and Iowa. And last, but at least we dig into Nebraska versus Penn State week.

The UN climate convention known as COP30 is now underway in Brazil. As the nations of the world gather to discuss their efforts to rein in climate disruption, the facts are clear: we're not doing enough, fast enough, to meet the Paris Agreement goal of limiting warming to 1.5 degrees Celsius above preindustrial levels. Climate-fueled disasters are increasingly impacting nearly every part of the world. And in Belém, Brazil, near the heart of the Amazon rainforest where the conference is being held, organizers have promised that Indigenous voices will play a bigger role than in the past. They've also billed this as an “implementation COP” where past promises will be turned into action. What practical steps can we hope countries achieve in this year's negotiations? Episode Guests: Ilana Seid, Permanent Representative of Palau to the United Nations; Chair, Alliance of Small Island States (AOSIS) Davi Neustein, Sustainability Consultant; Advisor to Marcelo Behar, COP30 Special Envoy  Deborah Sanchez, Director, CLARIFI (Community Land Rights and Conservation Finance Initiative), Rights and Resources InitiativeFor show notes and related links, visit ClimateOne.org. ***** Support Climate One by going ad-free!

November's elections brought victories across the country for state and local Democratic candidates who pledged to address rising energy costs. The challenges of meeting those promises the incoming Governors of Virginia and New Jersey, and Mayor of New York, will likely face. Also, a recent report warns that the European Alps, Rockies of the Western U.S. and Canada, Iceland, and Scandinavia would lose nearly all ice at 2°Celsius of warming – a threshold we're currently on track to exceed.  And in the Peruvian Amazon, the Asháninka people have developed a symbiotic relationship with the local bees, which often lack stingers, and their honey. A new and innovative law in Peru has granted these bees legal rights to help protect them and the indigenous people living with them. ---  Federal funding for public radio has ended.

On the Heather du Plessis-Allan Drive Full Show Podcast for Friday, 14 November 2025, we have officially missed our climate goal of limiting warming to 1.5 degrees Celsius. So why are we sending a massive delegation to the talkfest that is Cop30? Labour's Deborah Russell tells Heather why the trip to Brazil is important. One of the outcomes of the damning McSkimming IPCA report has been the establishment of an Inspector General for the police. But would this have changed anything? Retirement Commissioner Jane Wrightson wants to take Government Kiwisaver contributions from the rich to pay the poor. Whitcoulls is being accused of censorship for pulling a raunchy literary journal off its shelves. Folly Journal editor Emily Broadmore speaks to Heather about the publication.

Monster Beverage Corporation (NASDAQ: MNST) is without a doubt one of best two-way players in the beverage game, but it's hard to argue another “best defender in the industry” award isn't warranted after it recently announcing a new female-focused energy drink called FLRT will launch in early 2026. Offense and defense are terms that we're mostly familiar with when talking about sports, but these words are also applicable in business strategy. When a company is playing offense, its making investments that move the business forward. Alternatively, when a company is playing defense, its making investments to prevent potential downside. Offensive and defensive business strategies are equally important, but when you utilize them depends on numerous internal and external considerations...and accounting for these various marketplace dynamics could mean an offensive-heavy or defensive-heavy strategic gameplan would yield more short- and long-term value generation. So, who's the “King of Defense” in the beverage industry? If I was voting for this totally made-up award (again), I would give it to Monster Beverage Corporation just like when I examined the Reign Total Body Fuel and Reign Storm product innovations in February 2023. But instead of launching copycat energy drinks to defend against Bang Energy and CELSIUS, another highflying energy drink brand (or I guess brands) are currently on the Monster Beverage hit list. And while recent business performance has been relatively great at Monster Beverage, but that doesn't mean it's benefitted from every underlying growth driver powering the energy drinks market. Amid a slew of distribution partnerships, investments and acquisitions, the biggest success stories of the past several years have come to energy drink brands reaching toward female consumers. And the massive, continued achievements by Alani Nu and record-breaking early categorical results from Bloom Nutrition must've finally signaled “the future is female” to Monster Beverage because they just announced the upcoming launch of FLRT. Initially debuting in four flavors, FLRT will be positioned as a zero-sugar, female-focused energy drink brand. And while totally understanding (and respecting) the strategic defensive move from Monster Beverage, I didn't need to read the overwhelmingly negative comments from pundits to know FLRT wasn't going to be received well online. But since energy drinks are marketed as lifestyle brands that offer beverages with a functional benefit of caffeine, authenticity matters A LOT. So, while Alani Nu and Bloom Nutrition were each co-founded by female fitness influencers, Monster Energy is the epitome of such longtime mainstays of energy drink marketing like extreme sports and bikini models…that for some time suggested the only valuable categorical consumer were young males. And even if Monster Beverage attempted to develop female-focused energy drinks more than a decade ago, that overwhelmingly negative sentiment online obviously shows the brand identity of Monster Energy is so entrenched that consumers feel it seems grossly inauthentic to suddenly pivot now. Instead, if Monster Beverage wants to become liked by female consumers…it probably needs a more dramatic strategic plan. Thus, how about I leave you with this idea…Monster Beverage should acquire Olipop.

Good afternoon, I'm _____ with today's episode of EZ News. Tai-Ex opening The Tai-Ex opened down 79-points this morning from yesterday's close, at 27,867 on turnover of 11-billion N-T. The market closed higher on Wednesday despite coming off the day's high on heavy technical pressure ahead of the 28,000 point mark as Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing failed to sustain its initial gains. Taipei City Council approves terms of Nvidia land deal Taipei Deputy Mayor Lee Shu-chuan says the city council has approved the terms of a mutual termination (終止) agreement with Shin Kong Life Insurance that paves the way for the immediate return of a plot of city-owned land being eyed by Nvidia for its Taiwan headquarters. The deal includes a fee of about 4.4-billion N-T payable to Shin Kong Life by the city government. Transfer of the T-17 and T-18 plots at the Beitou-Shilin Technology Park is expected to be ratified (正式批准) by Shin Kong Life at a special board meeting later today. And the Taipei deputy mayor says that will then allow the city government and the insurer to sign the final contract tomorrow. Man who brought crocodile to Legislature to protest exotic pet ban fined And, The Taipei District Court has fined man who placed a live crocodile at the main entrance of the Legislative Yuan last month 10,000 N-T. The crocodile was left at the entrance in protest over a proposed ban on exotic pets on the morning of October 17. The man was quickly arrested by police and referred to prosecutors. He was fined for violating Article 70 of the Social Order Maintenance Act by allowing a dangerous animal to roam in public in the presence of other people. The court also ordered the seizure (查封，沒收) of his crocodile. The same man was arrested and fined 3,000 N-T in 2018 after bringing a crocodile to a protest at the Executive Yuan. US House Passes Bill to End Shutdown The US House has passed a bill to end the nation's longest government shutdown. The vote today sends the measure to President Donald Trump for his signature after a historic 43-day funding lapse. The Senate has already passed the measure. Democrats wanted to extend an enhanced (提升，改善) tax credit that lowers the cost of health coverage obtained through Affordable Care Act marketplaces and refused to go along with a spending bill that did not include that priority. But Republicans said that was a separate policy fight to be held at another time. They eventually prevailed as the shutdown took an increasing toll on the country. COP30 Report Emissions Rising Still Scientists report that emissions from fossil fuels rose by 1.1% in 2025, marking the second consecutive year of a small increase. This was announced Wednesday at the United Nations climate negotiations near the Amazon. A second report by Climate Action Tracker says the world is on track for 2.6 degrees Celsius of warming, slightly down from last year's projections. The carbon project scientists projected that this year the burning of fossil fuels and making of cement (水泥) will have put another 38.1 billion metric tons of carbon dioxide in the air. That's the equivalent of nearly 1.2 million kilograms of heat-trapping gas going into the air every second. The scientists say one bright point is that 35 countries cut their fossil fuel emissions from last year and were still thriving economically.

The goals of the Paris Agreement are not dead, says the UN's chief climate scientist Jim Skea. Although we are now almost certain to overshoot the goal of limiting average global warming to 1.5 degrees Celsius, Jim Skea discusses with FM4's Chris Cummins how temperatures might be brought down again, why we need energy not defeatist paralysis and why we should trust climate science.Sendungshinweis: FM4, OKFM4, 13.11.2025, 17 Uhr

In this episode titled "Traverse City's First Snowfall," Mike Dell begins by greeting listeners and introduces the episode as number 418. He shares that it is day twelve of NaPodPoMo and mentions this is the first episode recorded in real-time rather than in advance. Mike discusses the early snowfall in Traverse City, noting that some areas received significant accumulation while much of it has already melted. He shares the current temperature, converting it to Celsius for clarity, and describes the mixed weather conditions—with rain expected in nearby areas. Continuing with his narrative, Mike reflects on the change of seasons, mentioning the leaves dropping from the trees, particularly maples and oaks, and recounts the recent yard work he has done to clear the leaves. He mentions plans to prepare his tractor for winter, including getting it serviced at the John Deere dealer after removing the mower deck and attaching the snowblower. Mike recounts an outing for his wife's birthday dinner at Outback Steakhouse, describing the significant snowfall while they were dining and the challenges his family faced getting home due to the winter driving conditions. He humorously comments on how drivers often forget how to drive in snow, leading to accidents and challenges on the road. Towards the end of the episode, Mike decides to keep this episode short and mentions that he will talk about Clinch Park, a notable park in Traverse City with an interesting history, in the following episode. He wraps up by wishing listeners a great day and prompts them to catch him later.

On Monday, the COP30 climate summit officially opened in the Brazilian city of Belém at the gateway to the Amazon rainforest.Brazilian organisers have insisted this will be the “COP of implementation” where measures needed to combat the climate crisis will take precedence over more promises and never-ending negotiations.This year's global summit marks a decade since the highly lauded Paris Agreement – the landmark agreement signed by almost 200 countries and designed to avoid the worst consequences of climate change. Its main goal was to limit future global temperature rises to 1.5 degrees Celsius above ‘pre-industrial' levels. And while some progress has been made, ten years on from this legally binding agreement, emissions are still rising and UN secretary general António Guterres has acknowledged it is now “inevitable” that humanity will overshoot this 1.5 cap.What exactly do world leaders hope to achieve over the coming fortnight?How will the absence of a US-led delegation impact plans for cutting global emissions? And in a world deeply distracted by war, defence and ideological divisions, can China and the EU take the lead in pushing climate measures back up the list of international priorities?Irish Times Climate and Science correspondent Caroline O'Doherty joins the podcast from Belém to discuss whether this year's climate negotiations will move beyond plans and into concrete action.Presented by Sorcha Pollak. Produced by Suzanne Brennan. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

The United Nations Conference of Parties (COP) is holding its annual meeting in Brazil this year for the 30th time. Despite the creation of the Paris Climate Agreement nearly ten years ago, carbon emissions continue to rise, and the world is now experiencing the impacts of the 1.5° Celsius rise in temperature we sought to avoid. The time has come to shift our thinking and actions to what we can do locally to prepare for and protect our communities from the dangers of the climate crisis. Clearing the FOG speaks with Ed Jarvis, the leader of the Climate Majority Project's SAFER (Strategic Adaptation for Emergency Resilience) campaign. Jarvis discusses the campaign's efforts to bring greater awareness to the need for adaptation and shares what people are doing with a focus on climate justice.

The world has gathered for what's called the “COP of truth.” Tens of thousands of delegates, activists, and journalists have descended on Belém, Brazil, for COP30 the UN's annual climate conference.It's been one of the hottest years on record, with floods, fires and melting ice caps becoming the new normal. The UN warns that global temperatures are now on track to exceed 1.5 degrees Celsius within the next decade, the key threshold the Paris Agreement was supposed to prevent us from crossing.Join us on our journey through the events that shape the European continent and the European Union.Production: By Europod, in co production with Sphera Network.Follow us on:LinkedInInstagram Hosted on Acast.

Ten years ago in Paris, the world set its key climate goal, to limit a rise in global temperatures to 1.5 degrees Celsius. Now the United Nations is warning that the planet is likely to overshoot that target in the next decade, and that swift action is needed to limit the damage. The warning comes as world leaders are gathering for the COP30 Climate Conference in Belem, Brazil. Christiane spoke to former UN Climate Chief Christiana Figueres, a key architect of the Paris Climate Agreement, in Brazil ahead of the summit.   Also on today's show: author Katy Hessel ("How to Live an Artful Life"); Grammy-award winning musician and songwriter Jacob Collier  Learn more about your ad choices.

Can Celsius Holding navigate the hidden energy drinks market risks involving the Alani Nu and PepsiCo DSD distribution swap? Celsius Holdings (NASDAQ: CELH) had quarterly revenue of $725.1 million, which was up 173% YoY. Excluding the Alani Nu acquisition-related financial impact, CELSIUS brand revenue grew 44% YoY. And if you were wondering about Alani Nu, it's second quarter revenue was $332 million…which equates to around 99% YoY growth! According to Circana last 13-week retail sales data, CELSIUS increased by 31% YoY...remaining the third-largest energy drink brand in the category with a dollar share of 11.2%. Alani Nu increased retail sales 114% YoY and is now the dominant fourth player in the U.S. energy drinks market with dollar share of 7.2%. And Rockstar Energy retail sales decreased 9% YoY and is the seventh-largest U.S. energy drink with dollar share of 2.4%. If we look at Celsius Holdings combined brand portfolio, it reached 20.8% of dollar share for the last 13-week period...ranking it third and trailing only Red Bull and the combined Monster Beverage portfolio. Additionally, if you were to consider the last 52-week period ending July 20, 2025…Celsius Holdings retail sales surpassed $5 billion. Celsius Holdings has experienced massive growth in convenience stores, foodservice (e.g. fast food restaurants), mass retailers like Walmart, the club channel in retailers like Costco, and the Amazon marketplace. And international expansion presents significant opportunity for incremental growth over the next three to five years. With the Celsius brand basically at full distribution now…growth will be unlocked through a strategic growth framework that John Fieldly recently branded as “more people,” “more places,” and “more often.” The other major aspect of “Celsius Holdings and PepsiCo strengthening its long-term strategic partnership” comes into play, as Alani Nu will move into the PepsiCo DSD distribution system (officially starting in December). Everyone knew the most obvious decision to optimize for a “short-term reward” was Celsius Holdings transitioning Alani Nu from its piecemealed national (mostly independent) DSD network to the PepsiCo system. However, I can't fault Celsius Holdings for making A LOT of noise by effectively “pulling off the biggest “trade” the U.S. energy drinks market has seen over the past decade.” But it's the question around “timing” that has me fired up! But it's time for Celsius Holdings to prepare…because winter is coming! Firstly, Celsius Holdings efficiently must handle market challenges stemming from swapping Alani Nu distribution rights. Next, Celsius Holdings must successfully catch the Rockstar Energy proverbial falling knife. Then, the shift to zero sugar, functional energy drinks, has essentially fueled one of the fastest-growing segments in beverage…and Celsius Holdings had been unequivocally defining it. Yet, with the addition of Rockstar Energy, Celsius Holdings must now reorient itself top to bottom around being a total energy portfolio…and not a performance-forward and modern energy portfolio that possesses this powerful “challenger mindset.”

World leaders are meeting in Brazil's Amazon city of Belem for the COP30 climate summit, as the UN confirms the world will fail to stay below 1.5 degree Celsius of warming. With 2025 expected to be one of the hottest years on record, vulnerable island nations are calling for urgent emission cuts, stronger climate finance, and action to protect the Amazon rainforest.

ASIO foils foreign spy plot to recruit Australians and steal sensitive national secrets... UN warns world set to permanently breach 1.5 degree Celsius climate target within a decade, and in sport, The NRL set to ban clubs from commenting on players under contract.

The ten years since the Paris Agreement was signed at the UN Climate Change Conference, COP 21, have been the ten hottest years on record. And the outcome that the Paris Agreement sought — limiting global temperatures to 1.5 degrees Celsius above pre-industrial levels — is now widely considered unattainable. There are other hurdles as well. Many nations have not submitted climate action plans, or nationally determined contributions, to the UN. And President Trump says he plans to re-withdraw the US from the Paris Agreement. Still, the UN Framework Convention on Climate Change marches on. Next week, delegates, activists, and journalists will converge in Belém, Brazil, for the 30th Conference of the Parties, or COP30. So what are some of the possible outcomes of this year's climate summit? Will the absence of the United States even matter? Will the issue of climate equity and financing garner much attention? And what could come from a new forum that Brazil is planning, where governments will discuss how climate policy affects trade? This week, Bill Loveless speaks with Elliot Diringer about the issues that are likely to dominate the upcoming COP. Elliot is a global fellow at the Center on Global Energy Policy directing its International Dialogue on Climate and Trade. He brings decades of experience in climate diplomacy as a negotiator, journalist, and policy strategist. He first engaged with the topic as a reporter covering the 1992 Earth Summit in Rio de Janeiro and later served in senior roles in the Clinton administration, the Center for Climate and Energy Solutions, and more recently as a senior policy advisor to Special Presidential Envoy for Climate John Kerry during the Biden administration.   Credits: Hosted by Jason Bordoff and Bill Loveless.

The Paris Climate Agreement has the primary goal of limiting global average temperature rise to well below 2 degrees Celsius and preferably 1.5 degrees above pre-industrial levels.  Meeting this goal involves reaching global net-zero greenhouse gas emissions in the second half of the century.  Doing so requires the substantial adoption of renewable energy sources to […]

A decade ago, nearly every country in the world adopted the Paris Agreement, which aims to limit the rise in global warming to well below 2 degrees Celsius by 2100. Member nations are required under the legally binding treaty to submit every five years their climate action plans, or Nationally Determined Contributions, that detail the voluntary actions they commit to take to cut their carbon emissions.    The treaty couldn’t have come at a more urgent time. Last year was Earth’s hottest year on record, including the first year to exceed 1.5 degrees Celsius above pre-Industrial levels. Still, the Paris Agreement has allowed countries to make some modest progress on cutting emissions and slowing the arrival of the 2 degrees Celsius tipping point that experts warn could trigger irreversible and catastrophic climate change impacts.  But a new study led by the University of Washington found that those carbon-cutting gains are not great enough to offset the environmental costs of global economic growth, which has risen sharply over the past decade. The study also projects how Pres. Trump’s decision to pull the US out of the Paris Agreement for a second time may affect the collective, international effort to fight climate change. Adrian Raftery, a professor emeritus of statistics and sociology at University of Washington, joins us for more details.

Contributor: Taylor Lynch, MD Educational Pearls: A recent study published in a pediatric journal in April 2025 compared temporal and oral thermometers Paired temperature measurements (temporal and oral temperature within 30 minutes) were obtained from 1,412 pediatric patients 26% of patients had statistically different temporal and oral temperatures The temporal reading was always lower than the oral reading Children less than 12 years old were 2-3x more likely to actually have that statistical difference in temperatures The study also evaluated 1,000 adult patients 36% had a temporal temperature that was 0.5 degrees Celsius lower than the oral temperature Reasons for the statistical difference between the two types of thermometers: Environment: temporal thermometers are affected by ambient room temperature, diaphoresis, and inaccuracy in measuring temperature at the site of the temporal artery Physiologic: a patient with inadequate perfusion will not have an accurate temporal reading Impact: Obtaining an accurate temperature is crucial in patient care For example, in the setting of sepsis, temperature is a necessary component to identifying when a patient meets SIRS criteria References Salhi RA, Meeker MA, Williams C, Iwashyna TJ, Samuels-Kalow ME. Inaccuracy of Temporal Thermometer Measurement by Age and Race. Acad Pediatr. 2025 Apr;25(3):102620. doi: 10.1016/j.acap.2024.102620. Epub 2024 Dec 15. PMID: 39681266.

Bitcoin is definitely volatile. If you told me it was going to go down by 50 percent next year, I would hesitantly believe you. However, there is no way you can convince me that Bitcoin will not hit $500,000 at some point within the next five years. Think about what's happening: ETFs are everywhere, treasury companies are holding Bitcoin, there are rumors of central banks buying it, and even an American Bitcoin reserve. It is an asset that will go up. But it may go down before that, and that is unnerving. You should not put money into Bitcoin unless you commit to not touching it for 5–10 years. But then you face another problem—Bitcoin is like gold. Unlike apartment buildings, there is no rent, no cashflow. Other coins like Ethereum and Solana have mechanisms called staking that allow for yield. Bitcoin does not. Its beauty is that there are not a lot of moving parts. It's a vault of security, and that's pretty much it. Again, just like gold. There have been companies like BlockFi and Celsius—which are, indeed, traditional finance companies—that lost people's Bitcoin when they went insolvent. But now there may be a way to get yield from Bitcoin while keeping it in your custody. That's what we talk about on this week's Wealth Formula Podcast, in addition to covering recent news and making predictions about Bitcoin's price.
