Sanjana takes the stand as the self-proclaimed number one age-gap defender, arguing that the trope is really about power, that demanding moral instruction from romance is a fundamentally conservative impulse, and that “reverse age-gap” is not a thing. Then debut novelist Anna Maria Volkova joins to talk about Games, her romance about an economics grad student and a Soviet-born Wall Street banker: why his Russianness specifically matters to the story, the Hollywood villain problem, and what it looks like when a man shaped by political catastrophe becomes romantically persuasive. And: Tyler and Sanjana do a month-in-media check-in that includes both Cancer Ward and Kennedy Ryan. On age gaps: why power is the whole point, when the trope works versus when shock replaces substance, and why the demand for capital-M Moral fiction is more conservative than it sounds. Anna Maria Volkova is the author of Games, a debut romance about desire, grief, and neoliberal capitalism (out June 30).

We talk about how Justine came to these types of stories, the details of the survey she conducted, and what she looked for in the women she spotlighted.The Stacks Book Club pick for June is The Alchemist by Paolo Coelho.

This sermon on Ecclesiastes 2 argues that pleasure itself isn't broken—our method of pursuing it is. Solomon's experiment of total self-indulgence proved that earthly pleasures, though genuinely enjoyable, are ultimately "vanity"—they never last and never fully satisfy. The root problem is that God has placed eternity in our hearts, so finite pleasures will always leave us empty. The solution isn't abstinence but a shift from indulging (taking) to enjoying (receiving)—recognizing pleasure as a gift from God rather than something to grasp. When we see God as the source of all good things, pleasure becomes a signpost toward Him rather than a substitute for Him, and the cycle of craving and emptiness is replaced by delight and worship.
The art of production design can be the art of big world building or adding layers and nuance to the things that are already there....On this special episode we are in the heights of Emmy Award consideration and we get to look behind the scenes on one of our favorite shows. It's time to talk production design and 'Slow Horses'.Going into Season 6, 'Slow Horses' isn't a show that's designed to build new worlds, but as we follow our heroes around the city of London it's about finding new nooks and cranny through the city scape to allow in the suspense to unfold.On the show since it's inception, we had the pleasure of sitting down with production designer Choi Ho Man, to talk about her work on the show, building layers on to something that's already been accepted.You can catch up with 'Slow Horses' over on Apple+ streaming, now.
Jeff Malec kicks off “Chicago Month” on The Derivative with Chicago real estate powerhouse Tommy Choi of Weinberg Choi. Tommy lays out what really makes Chicago compelling as a place to live and invest—world-class food, underrated beaches, iconic bungalows, and relative affordability, while tackling the tough stuff around crime headlines, taxes, and politics. He breaks down post-pandemic migration, why inventory is so tight, how boomers with 2–3% mortgages and “Bank of Mom and Dad” shape the market, and why millennials are choosing flexibility and crypto over owning. Jeff and Tommy hit on stubbornly high rates, surging rents, condo special assessments, aging buildings, the limits of Loop office-to-resi conversions, and how AI and blockchain might (and might not) change the game. They wrap with a very Chicago detour into best burgers, dive bars, Wrigley in summer, and a few local hacks for seeing the city like a native. If you care about real estate as an asset class, Chicago as a case study in big-city risk and reward, or just want some elite burger intel, this one's for you.Chapters:00:00-01:00=Intro01:01–03:47 = Selling Chicago: Food, Beaches, Weather, Taxes, and Crime Headlines03:48–15:57 = Inventory Squeeze: Boomers, Millennials, Rates, and the Battle to Buy or Rent15:58–30:54 = Life as a Top Realtor: Relationships, Weekends, and the Business Behind the Billion30:55–43:32 = AI, Search, and the Future Home Hunt: How Tech Is Rewiring Real Estate43:33–59:19 = Commissions, Class Actions, and Blockchain: Cleaning Up the Real Estate Game59:20–1:07:10 = The NAR Shake-Up1:07:11–1:22:19 = Chicago Like a Local: Best Burgers, True Dive Bars, Wrigley, Cherry Blossoms, and City HacksFollow along with Tommy Choi on LinkedIn and X and be sure to check out his website at weinbergchoi.com!Don't forget to subscribe toThe Derivative, follow us on Twitter at@rcmAlts andsign-up for our blog digest.Disclaimer: This podcast is provided for informational purposes only and should not be relied upon as legal, business, or tax advice.

Anthropic just closed a $65 billion Series H round at a valuation approaching one trillion dollars — and has crossed $30 billion in annualized revenue, driven largely by enterprise demand. Claude Code alone became generally available in May 2025 and reached $2.5 billion in annualized revenue in February 2026, with that figure more than doubling since the beginning of 2026. Meaghan Choi, Head of Design for Claude Code and Cowork at Anthropic, was in that room. This conversation goes inside the operating model behind that growth.What you'll learn:Claude Code's evolution from an internal feature into one of the fastest-growing revenue products in historyAnthropic's secret sauce to shipping products at an incredibly high cadence while ensuring qualityHow product teams get structured into small pods of 5 AI Builders and a fleet of agents, where non-engineers ship code into productionDriving enterprise adoption through PLG from technical teamsHow organizations can measure AI ROI beyond AI adoption and token usageDesigning user interfaces for agentic capabilities, including CLIKey takeaways:Titles and role boundaries matter less than contribution. At Anthropic, designers ship code and engineers design, and the pod owns the output collectively.Quality gates have moved downstream. The richest product learnings come from working software, not from reviewing mocks or PRDs.Managing a team now means managing both people and a fleet of AI agents. The skills are more similar than they appear.Credits:Host: Carlos Gonzalez de VillaumbrosiaGuest: Meaghan ChoiSocial Links:Find out more about Product School hereFollow our Podcast on TikTok hereFollow Product School on LinkedIn here

Yes! Chef! Nick and Angela are joined by Jon Favreau for an episode packed with appreciation for great food, and the creativity and passion that goes into making it. Jon arrives in the kitchen in the middle of a gigantic world press tour to promote his new movie, The Mandalorian and Grogu, the latest adventure in the Star Wars universe. The film, of which Favreau is director, co-writer and producer, is out in cinemas this week and boasts an all-star cast including Pedro Pascal, Sigourney Weaver and Jeremy Allen White. Jon is well versed with the culinary world, most notably with his 2014 film Chef, where he played a cook who starts up his own food truck. In order to prepare for the role, he schooled up on a range of cooking techniques with long-term collaborator, the Korean-American chef Roy Choi. Jon's passion for chef life also extended to him getting his own commercial kitchen fitted and working with Choi on The Chef Show, where he shared meals with celebrity guests including Gwyneth Paltrow and one of our faves, Tom Holland. Add those credentials to his back catalogue of film work, which includes Iron Man, The Jungle Book and Elf, and you have the ingredients for a top quality Dish guest. The episode's meal is a request from Jon: a simple but perfect Cacio e pepe gnocchi with broccoli & walnuts, a creation he admires from the best spot in the kitchen. The wine pairing is a bottle of Broglia Gavi DOCG. Enjoy this one, food lovers, as Jon shares his joy for food with us all. We get to level up the Fast Food Quiz, hear about DJing for Mark Ronson, find a rare Favreau knowledge gap, and ‘the clean plate club' is born.

Planning for the Unexpected: John J. Choi on Guarantees, Diversification, and DistributionChristine interviews John J. Choi, a New York Life Wealth Management Financial Advisor with experience in corporate finance and marketing, startups, nonprofits, and pastoral ministry, about investing amid life's unpredictability. Choi shares a nonlinear career path shaped by major life events, including divorce, becoming a single dad, and losing his wife to ovarian cancer, which led him to advise individuals rather than companies. He emphasizes that peace of mind is priceless and argues investors should plan for success while also planning for the unexpected through diversification and “guarantees” such as life insurance and fixed annuities to cover future living expenses, allowing other assets to be invested more aggressively. He highlights the often-overlooked importance of distribution strategies alongside accumulation, including potentially passing assets to loved ones during one's lifetime, and notes his satisfaction in educating clients and reducing financial anxiety.00:00 Welcome and Guest Intro01:17 John's Unexpected Journey02:50 Planning for the Unexpected04:37 Guarantees Explained05:31 Accumulation vs Distribution06:26 Legacy and Gifting Tips07:20 Advisor Mindset and Planning07:57 Pastor Skills and Expectations11:20 Why Advising Feels Rewarding12:13 Final Takeaways and Counsel

John 13:33-35 teaches us 3 things about embrace: (1)The personal embrace of Christ, (2)The sacrificial embrace of Christ, and (3)The missional embrace of Christ. As we see how Jesus loved his own, we are given a model and a pattern for how we are to love our own. The call to love one another is the distinguishing mark of the new community of Christ and it is designed to testify to the world who Christ is. Messages like this can be hard to digest because hurt and pain oftentimes come with community. However, Jesus provides for us a wonderful model of love in the midst of pain and hurt and how that pain and hurt bring for transformation.
