Watch on Philo! - Philo.tv/DTHThe episode starts with cruisers talking about who they are most existed to see - Tyler Hynes, Taylor Cole, Jonathan Bennett, everyone! With little clips of what's to come this season. Lots of hugging. Lots of crying. We meet Paige, Alexandrea and their mom Kerry. The Vermeer family. Mom cries when talking about how excited she is to go on this cruise. Alexandra is the daughter in law but she feels like they're the family she's always wanted and both Alexandrea and Paige talk about how much momma Kerry has done for them. They show up at the cruise and are wearing matching Vermeer Girls sweatshirt. They're blown away by all the decorations. The room though? Tiny. It's a twin bed with a single bed over top. And they immediately get to work on decorating their door. That's a big deal for cruisers. We then meet Rob & Donna - they've been together for 9 years. Rob is freakin jacked. He broke both of her ribs after trying to pop her back at the gym. And that's true love. They have a bunch of hallmark actor ornaments in their tree. She loves Paul Campbell and he loves Nikki DeLoach. They get on board and immediately bump into Jonathan Bennet and he's just wheeling and dealing like Jonathan Bennet is one to do.,We then meet Carol, Cathy, and Nate who is celebrating his 16th birthday on the cruise and he is pumped. Nate is there with his two grandmas. And he's a bit of a celeb because he posted on the cruise Facebook group that it's his birthday. We then meet Lori and her sister. They live in separate states so they're so excited to go on this cruise. Lori is a fellow Christmas crazy and is excited to decorate their room. The Veneer family are back and momma Kerry talks about how she's happily married and she knows Wes Brown is happily married, but she has been given a hall pass in case Wes is interested. She calls it her hallmark pass. My guy Rob is gonna propose to Donna and is hoping they can get married on the cruise! Night 1 comes and it's time for the Christmas tree lighting on top of the ship. We then meet Alice and Gail. Best friends since 10th grade, 46 years ago. And they are our black friends. They're excited to meet Tyler Hynes. And Alicia is gonna try to get Gail to get out of her comfort zone. So everyone's up on top of the ship. JB comes out and does his thing. Tyler Hynes comes on stage in a bath robe. It's a whole thing. Paige is very into him and she thinks they would hit it off really well. She yells at him to take it off. While momma Kerry is just going nuts over Wes Brown. We find out Paige has some news she has to tell her mom - she's moving out of Texas. But she's nervous .Victoria tells her sister Lora she's pregnant right after Lora gets them both champagne. Rob and Donna get a picture with Erin Cahill and of course she's just the sweetest. They talk to her for a bit. We find out that Donna had to have brain surgery last holiday season. So they're both really excited to be there. And he's trying to find the right time to propose to her. But not while Erin Cahill is there. It's time for Carol-oke. Gail and Alicia show up. Alicia signs them up. Gail is pissed. She does not get to that stage and Alicia shames her from the stage. We get Gail in a confessional having to psychoanalyze why she doesn't wanna get out of her comfort zone. The sisters show up for trivia, hosted by Nikki DeLoach and Andrew Walker. And Andrew is just hugging everyone. And these sisters suck at trivia. And then there's the boot shot with Tyler Hynes. It's madness. Paige is pumped. But then Wes Brown walks in and Kerry is pumped. They hug. And Paige says “I've been told to call you step-dad”. And then Kerry says it …. You're my hallmark pass. Wes is just so chill. JB is also there and Paige is like can you give Tyler Hynes my number? And he's like I can do that. And I'm weirdly invested in this. Nate has lost his grandmas. So he's going around and asking “has anyone seen some grandmas?”. Turns out they're hiding becuase they're annoyed by Nate. Turns out his birthday isn't even today, it's December 10th. Fricken liar. So Rob goes into the gym and Paul Campbell is there. They have matching black tanks. So he tells him that he's gonna propose and wants to get married on the ship. Paul is like hey I can officiate your wedding here. He pulls Andrew walker in. Rob is like oh boy. Now I really need to ask her.

Time trial day! It's Ronan's Christmas, birthday, and birth of his first child all rolled into one. The man could not be more excited. Jonny and Caley, in contrast, are just hoping for literally anything interesting to happen. Lucky for us, it did. Jonas Vingegaard underperformed (or did he?), Remco Evenepoel smashed it, and sweet Kevin Vauquelin (or is it VauqueliCAN) rode his way into the top three.

Watch on Philo! - Philo.tv/DTHRiley is looking for a job and despite having plenty of experience, she keeps getting turned down. And she's down to only $89 in her bank account. She overhears a women talking about William Young - a hot shot executive - is in need of a new assistant. So she's gonna march down there and get a job! While waiting for her interview, she fixes the lobby tree topper and makes a wish, which impresses the women who is doing the interviewing. She gets the job, mainly because they think that she's a different Riley V with a more impressive resume. She is immediately pulled into the board room where she immediately butts into the conversation about closing down a factory and is like don't do that which impresses William Young. William decides he's gonna go check out the factory and decide for himself what to do. But William likes to drive, so Riley flies out early to get a lay of the land. She finds out that the town is going to go all out to help make William feel at home and hopefully save the factory. But it gets off to a rocky start when he gets pulled over and doesn't have his license, so he's brought to jail until he can prove his identity. She goes to take him to the inn and he's mad that she decorated it for Christmas. He's like I've fired people for less than this. But she stays on.They go to check out the factory and it's struggling. They're gonna need to figure out something to save it and Riley actually comes up with an idea - pivot away from Jeffery the Bear and make him a wishing bear. It could be just the thing to save the factory. And William seems into it. But she over hears him on the phone talking about how it's basically a sure thing they're gonna shut down the factory. Santa gives Riley a pep talk. And then gives William a pep talk. It's possible this Santa is magic. They end up going ice skating together and getting to know each other more and the sparks are flying. What could go wrong? There's this journalist who is trying to take him down and is spying on them and snapping pictures. But nothing can get them down. They're having a great time, the bears are selling, and he's starting to feel at home here. But then, the sales suddenly hit a brick wall. So they go down to the factory and the reporter is there and she outs Riley and William is real upset. So she goes home and he has a conversation with the mayor who helps him see the big picture here. So he goes to her house and they make up. He tells her that "someone" bought all the factory's inventory and will keep the factory open to the new year and go from there. And then he tells Riley he wants to help fund her to open her own consulting company. They kiss.

THE BIG PODCAST - Mariah Carey Talks "Type Dangerous," Her Upcoming Album, Parenting Teenagers, Longevity Of "All I Want For Christmas"
It's July, it's hot, and the elves are back together to keep the Christmas spirit alive—even if the only snow in sight is digital! This week, Anthony, Julia, and Thom wrangle some nostalgia and take on Jurassic World (2015) to answer the most important question: does a single Christmas song and a December setting make this dino blockbuster a holiday film, or is it just a T-Rex-sized summer popcorn flick with a festive aftertaste? Pour yourself a glass of eggnog (or a margarita, Jimmy Buffett-style) and join us as we: Reminisce about our first Jurassic Park theater experiences and why that original movie still gives us chills (and maybe a few nightmares). Break down the plot, the characters, and the sheer spectacle of Jurassic World—from Chris Pratt's raptor whispering to Bryce Dallas Howard's high-heeled heroics. Debate the movie's “Christmas credentials”—from the opening scene's holiday music to the glaring lack of decorations in the park. (Seriously, where are the lights? Where's the tree? Universal, call us!) Laugh about the best cameos, the most over-the-top dino moments, and why theme parks never learn their lesson. Share our signature ratings and decide if Jurassic World deserves a spot on your Christmas watchlist—or if it's best saved for a heatwave movie marathon. As always, expect plenty of tangents, pop culture references, and a healthy dose of snark. Whether you're here for the dinosaurs, the nostalgia, or the ongoing “is it a Christmas movie?” debate, we've got you covered. Subscribe wherever you get your podcasts, join our Facebook group to share your thoughts (and your favorite Jurassic Park moments), and keep the conversation going on Twitter and Instagram. And don't forget—Christmas is never more than a podcast episode away!

Most often, when I hear the word "peace," I think of war...
In this episode, I sit down with Alex Pardo, a self-storage magnate who transitioned from a thriving wholesaling and house-flipping career to building wealth through self-storage facilities. Alex shares his raw and honest story of realizing he'd built a stressful business that left him feeling stuck, and how he used Profit First principles to regain control of his finances and peace of mind — both in business and at home with his wife.We unpack what it really takes to pivot into self-storage, why he believes it's one of the most overlooked but recession-resistant assets available to investors, and how Profit First helped him save aggressively for big capital expenses. Alex also discusses who should consider investing in storage, what makes a deal profitable, and how adopting a disciplined money system strengthened his marriage and overall life satisfaction.Timeline Summary:[0:00] – Welcoming Alex and swapping Monopoly stories that reveal his competitive edge.[1:59] – Alex's first exposure to Profit First through Mike Michalowicz's books and why it felt like a lightbulb moment.[5:00] – How implementing Profit First let Alex save for a $100K+ CapEx budget, giving him confidence to move forward with major facility improvements.[8:00] – How Alex and his wife adopted Profit First at home with dedicated accounts for vacations, Christmas, and giving — creating harmony in their marriage.[12:52] – What led Alex to ask himself the crucial question that sparked his exit from the wholesaling rat race.[14:35] – Why he calls scaling his wholesaling business “irresponsible growth” and how his experience taught him to value peace over profit.[16:02] – His initial fears about moving into self-storage, and the surprising ways his wholesaling skills carried over perfectly.[18:18] – A look back at whether he regrets leaving wholesaling given the hot post-Covid market, and why he doesn't.[21:04] – The powerful “play the movie forward” exercise Alex uses to make big decisions with intention.[23:06] – His success story of acquiring, stabilizing, and selling a 638-unit storage portfolio — and why he only needed 1-3 good deals per year to move the needle.[25:23] – Why self-storage can be semi-passive after stabilization, and how Alex spends just 1-2 hours a week managing hundreds of units.[27:04] – Breaking down the three phases of acquiring a storage facility: marketing and analysis, financing and due diligence, and maximizing operations.[29:03] – Why self-storage is recession-resistant: the unique psychology of people downsizing but unwilling to part with their stuff.[32:05] – The differences in operating expense ratios between storage (30-40%) and multifamily (45-55%) — and why this margin creates more breathing room.Key Takeaways:Asking yourself tough questions — like whether you'd want to be doing the same thing a year from now — can change your entire trajectory.Profit First isn't just for business; applying its principles at home can bring couples closer and build long-term stability.Your existing real estate skills may translate seamlessly into self-storage — don't underestimate how much you already know.Location and demographics are critical; a rough market can mean higher break-ins and delinquencies, even in storage.Storage can provide high cash flow with lower management demands than single-family or multifamily rentals — making it ideal for those seeking freedom.Links & ResourcesLearn more about self-storage investing and get free training from Alex at https://storagewins.comIf you want to keep more of what you make with Profit First, visit https://simplecfo.com
It was "Christmas in June" at the little home on the prairie. Family drove from various areas of America to celebrate together, a few weeks ago. The temperature was in the 70s. Instead of snowflakes, an occasional mosquito buzzed by and a few June bugs. No snow fell, but rain dashed on the tent where children played and slept nearby. Father Christmas, or Santa Claus, did not even arrive in a boat or a sleigh. However, everyone enjoyed the festive Christmas foods and picnic style, since family is widely scattered and work schedules prevent getting together on December 25. We gather together during good old summertime.Family traditions and celebrations for holidays and every day are very important. It is a reminder of the good old days when extended families lived in close proximity and traditions were passed from generation to generation. Family means a sense of belonging and people you can count on to share their time and values and care about strengthening family ties. Yes, it was Christmas in June and not Christmas in July, as it had been in former years. Yet, there were the fireworks, the creative activities, the decorations and snow boots, the mama cat and her kittens, including little snowflake, were the joy of the grandchildren at play. The lighted Christmas tree at the top of the stairs has gifts under its branches all year long. What fun to open the surprise gifts and negotiate with one another. Laughter filled the Christmas tea room. There is always that solemn moment when we know there will be goodbyes in the morning, when family returns to their homes. We closed with singing Silent Night in harmony while Auntie Ruth gracefully used her hands as we tried to read the words in the sign language. And oh yes, Trina, we did not forget the wise men and the star as its light shone so bright in the dark night that lighted star reminded us all that wise men and women still seek Him. The reason for all seasons. "A house built with love becomes home. A house is built by human hands, a house is made of bricks, a home is built by human hearts. A home is made of love. Having some place to go is home. Having someone to love is family. Having both is a blessing. Happy is a home that is filled with love." Celebrate family all year long!

In 1976 Fay Ballard had just finished her first term at university and heading home for Christmas she was looking for a gift for her father who was the author J.G. Ballard. This episode is the story of that gift! It may have started as a small Yucca pot plant but almost 50 years on - it has a great story to tell.For those of us of a certain generation, the Yucca plant will be familiar. Back in the 70's and 80's Marks and Spencer had shelves full of them.

When listening to our show for a few minutes, listeners usually make up their minds and they start packing. However, today is different. Join us for an engaging episode with Miles Zuniga, guitarist and co-vocalist of Fastball, the band behind '90s hits "The Way" and "Out of My Head." Miles dives into the origin stories behind their iconic songs, navigating the evolving and sometimes depressing music industry, and finding new avenues for Fastball. Miles shares some great stories, we share a bunch of laughs, and get a glimpse into what makes Fastball unique. Check out their latest album, Sonic Ranch, today! And as usual we get real weird and talk about Mike's multitude of dog voices, Diddy opening Christmas presents, some crazy things Scott's son said, and the sad reality of having a fat boy session. Have a listen!
I vividly remember the day after Christmas 2022. Not because I was relaxing, but because I was at my laptop, updating my university courses and diving headfirst into AI tools for my business and podcast. ChatGPT had just launched, and I knew instantly: this was different. This wasn't just another tech trend; this was a transformation. In this episode, I share the talk I recently delivered at the ElleX Summit, where I wove together history, technology, and the urgent need for women's voices in AI. From Ada Lovelace and the women of NASA to Eleanor Roosevelt and the Brontë sisters, women have always shown up when new technologies emerged that gave them a voice and a platform. And now, it's our moment again. You'll hear: Why AI isn't just a tool - it's a force shaping how we work, teach, govern, and live Shocking examples of gender bias baked into AI systems Why your perspective, leadership, and storytelling are essential in this new era How I'm using AI to save time on the computer, so I can do more of the work that makes me feel human AI can either reinforce the past or help us create a more inclusive future. It's up to us to choose. Let's make sure future generations find plenty of women in the history books of this AI era.

The additional taxes US President Trump intended to impose on US consumers from Wednesday will now be delayed until 1 August. That means that, allowing for some stockpiling ahead of Christmas, consumers may not experience the inflation spike from these taxes until January next year—assuming that Trump does not retreat again.
What's up, dudes? It's a space cowboy cartoon from the ‘80s. No, not BraveStarr. Kevin Williams from ‘Tis the Soundtrack joins me to talk about The Adventures of the Galaxy Rangers “Marshmallow Trees!”Zozo and Rangers Niko and Buzzwang introduce kiwi trees to the planet Granna. Unfortunately, the planet's two suns have an adverse effect on the trees, making them complete their entire cycle of growth in one night. It also causes them to grow 100 times their normal size. The planet will be overrun by the trees if a genetically engineered breed of gobblebugs aren't used to destroy the crop. Rangers Doc and Zachary Foxx arrive with the bugs and to provide support for Niko and Buzz. Consequently, the residents of Granna don't think the bugs are a good idea at all. It turns into a free for all, as everyone commandeers everyone else's vehicles trying to stop the Rangers from releasing the bugs. Foxx activates his series-5 implant and uses his bionic arm blaster to stop the chase. The bugs eat the trees and turn into flowers.Marshmallow trees? Yep. Cybernetically enhanced space cowboys? For sure. Jingle Bells? Only briefly in the score.

What happens when your CrossFit gym goes dark? Coaches David Syvertsen @davesy85 and Sam Rhee @bergencosmetic dive deep into their CrossFit Bison's unique Dark Week experience – where workouts remain completely hidden until athletes walk through the door.They explores the fascinating psychological impact of removing workout previews. While some members struggle with the lack of control, others discover unexpected freedom when forced to trust their fitness completely. As Coach David explains, "If your true goal is to become a fitter version of yourself, you're going to have to do things you don't want to do."The hosts share candid insights about programming challenges, athlete reactions, and even expose how some members secretly try to peek at workouts ahead of time (spoiler: it ruins the experience like finding Christmas presents early). They tackle practical concerns like equipment preparation while highlighting profound benefits including breaking the subconscious bias of cherry-picking workouts and building mental resilience.Perhaps most compelling is how Dark Week reveals character. Those who embrace the unknown with humility often benefit most, while those who resist relinquishing control miss valuable growth opportunities. The discussion ultimately circles back to CrossFit's foundational principle of preparing for the "unknown and unknowable" – something many athletes gradually drift away from as they settle into comfortable routines.Whether you're a CrossFit veteran seeking to recapture early excitement or a fitness enthusiast curious about mental training aspects, this episode offers thoughtful perspectives on breaking patterns and embracing discomfort. Listen now to challenge your own approach to fitness and discover why sometimes not knowing might be exactly what you need.@crossfitbison @crossfittraining @crossfit @crossfitgames #crossfit #sports #exercise #health #movement #crossfitcoach #agoq #clean #fitness #ItAllStartsHere #CrossFitOpen #CrossFit #CrossFitCommunity @CrossFitAffiliates #supportyourlocalbox #crossfitaffiliate #personalizedfitness

How do we raise kids who look beyond themselves and become true agents of generosity in a self-centered world? In this heart-stirring episode of Christian Parent/Crazy World, Catherine welcomes an extraordinary guest whose story proves that one small act of service can ignite a global movement. Luke Mickelson—founder of Sleep in Heavenly Peace—shares how a simple urge to meet a need in his own community became a mission to ensure that “no kid sleeps on the floor in my town.” What began as a Christmas service project in his garage alongside his children and Boy Scout group has since grown into a national nonprofit providing hundreds of thousands of beds—literal safe havens—for children in need. Luke Mickelson’s journey began in a small Idaho town with an ordinary Saturday, a crisis of faith, and the realization that kids in his own community were literally sleeping on the floor. Instead of writing a check, Luke rolled up his sleeves, gathered some tools, and invited his own children—and a group of energetic Boy Scouts—to build a bed from scratch. That humble act of service didn’t just meet an immediate need, it filled a void in Luke’s life and eventually sparked a nationwide movement that has provided over 300,000 beds to kids in need. Key insights and moments from this episode include: How parents can teach their kids generosity by modeling it and making service hands-on and family-focused The importance of taking ownership for the brokenness in our own communities—and the power of the motto, “No kid sleeps on the floor in my town” The surprising scope of child bedlessness in America—and why so few people are even aware this need exists What it feels like to step out in faith and put everything on the line for a God-inspired calling Why meaningful service is the antidote to the emptiness that so many parents and children feel How ordinary community members (including retirees, families, and youth groups) can get involved in building and delivering beds—or even start a Sleep in Heavenly Peace chapter Practical ways to help, from raising awareness, volunteering, donating, or simply showing up for one kid in your town Luke's credentials as CNN’s Top 10 Hero, as well as his features on NBC News, PBS, and Mike Rowe’s Returning the Favor, uniquely position him to speak to the transformative power of hands-on generosity. His story is a forceful reminder that “God’s hands are your hands”—and that taking action, not just dreaming, is what transforms lives. Whether building beds, delivering hope, or finding creative ways for your family to serve, this conversation will equip and inspire you to become the hands and feet of Christ in your neighborhood. Guest Bio: Luke Mickelson is the founder of Sleep in Heavenly Peace (SHP), a nonprofit that builds and delivers beds to children in need. What started in his garage as a holiday project in 2012 has grown into a global movement, with over 350 chapters in four countries and more than 250,000 beds delivered. As the cause kept growing, Luke left an 18-year career to devote himself fully to the cause. SHP now has volunteers devoting 550,000 hours on average every year. Built on the belief that giving a bed is about more than comfort — it’s about dignity, purpose, and connection.

Faith comes alive when paired with action, and generous families don’t just bless others…they find the fullness of life God intends. Don’t miss this motivating and deeply practical conversation—perfect for families who want to model Christ’s love in real, tangible ways.

Send us a textJust in time for Christmas in July, in this inspiring episode, we sit with super producer XplicitMevon Sooden.Mevon Soodeen—aka Explicit Boy—is the Trinidadian music producer behind some of the biggest soca, soca parang & hiphop hits in recent years. In this episode of The Corie Sheppard Podcast, we dive into Mevon's journey from a self-taught beatmaker in St. James to producing Carnival and Christmas anthems like Pone Annie (with Rome), Come Home (with Nyla & Skinny Fabulous), and Take Me Home (with Freetown Collective).We discuss:
Hallmark is back with its Kansas City “Christmas Experience,” aiming to top last year's 100,000-guest debut by doubling down on comfort-food tradition—workshops, red-carpet movie premieres, and even themed Marriott suites. Philip and Scott unpack how leaning into safe, repeatable rituals can turn a pop-up into a pilgrimage. Next, Meow Wolf launches Phenomenomaly, a summer-long loop of live dance, puppetry, and guest interaction inside its Las Vegas and Denver exhibitions—proof that adding performers keeps ticket-buyers coming back for a second trip, rather than treating the art as a one-and-done selfie stop. Finally, Chicago's big museums roll out a multisensory slate—projection-mapped Himalayan “ghosts,” a Monet-Hokusai mash-up, Mars-rover missions, and 21-plus stargazing nights—showing how after-hours programming can drive per-cap growth without requiring permanent capital expenditures. Takeaway: Whether it's Christmas nostalgia, locally led art, or adult evening events, operators have fresh levers to boost replayability and spend beyond peak season.

Natasha Henstridge on Power, Pain & Moving Forward | Still Here Hollywood: 10 Minute Takes In this raw and revealing chapter, Species star Natasha Henstridge opens up about the darker side of Hollywood — including her personal experiences with Harvey Weinstein and the emotional weight of coming forward. Natasha reflects on the lingering fear and stigma survivors still face, why she chose to speak up, and how she's moved forward while continuing to protect and support young actresses. She also shares the dream actors she's never worked with (yes, she's Team All the Kates) and why Colin Farrell gets a special shout-out — much to her boyfriend's amusement. Plus, Natasha gives us a sneak peek at her new indie projects, a Christmas movie she's producing, and her no-filter advice on surviving Hollywood.

For over 50 years, For the Strength of Youth has been a guide for generations of Latter-day Saint youth. I always keep a copy in my pocket, and I share it with people who are curious about our standards. It has been updated and refreshed to better cope with the challenges and temptations of our day. The new version of For the Strength of Youth is available online in 50 different languages and will also be available in print. It will be a significant help for making choices in your life. Please embrace it as your own and share it with your friends. This new version of For the Strength of Youth is subtitled A Guide for Making Choices. To be very clear, the best guide you can possibly have for making choices is Jesus Christ. Jesus Christ is the strength of youth. So the purpose of For the Strength of Youth is to point you to Him. It teaches you eternal truths of His restored gospel—truths about who you are, who He is, and what you can accomplish with His strength. It teaches you how to make righteous choices based on those eternal truths.13 It's also important to know what For the Strength of Youth does not do. It doesn't make decisions for you. It doesn't give you a “yes” or “no” about every choice you might ever face. For the Strength of Youth focuses on the foundation for your choices. It focuses on values, principles, and doctrine instead of every specific behavior. The Lord, through His prophets, has always been guiding us in that direction. He is pleading with us to “increase [our] spiritual capacity to receive revelation.”14 He is inviting us to “hear Him.”15 He is calling us to follow Him in higher and holier ways.16 And we are learning in a similar way every week in Come, Follow Me.

Live Aid may have been the cultural event for Gen X'ers just as Woodstock was for their baby boomer parents. Bob Geldof had led a group of British pop artists to the charity single Do They Know It's Christmas? That inspired US artists to create We Are The World. Both singles were to aid millions of starving people in Africa who were suffering from severe drought and broken politics. The huge success of the songs lead Geldof to be even more ambitious in coordinating a dual continent live concert with the biggest stars of the day (and with some legends as well) to raise money for Africa. On July 13, 1985 artists gathered in Wembley Stadium in London and JFK Stadium in Philadelphia and MTV broadcast 15 hours of programming which we ate up! Though a million things could have gone wrong, the day was an amazing event that raised money and awareness for a dire situation and brought together the most incredible lineup of talent. This is the first of 3 parts commemorating this incredible event. Here we'll breakdown how the singles came together, who came, who didn't, controversies and legacy. We name all the acts on both coasts before breaking down the UK performances before the US feed was piped into the UK. Part 2 will have the primetime acts from the UK and the US and we discuss the now infamous Led Zeppelin performance. But we're really excited about Part 3 which will feature interviews from 2 folks who were in Philadelphia that day - one of whom was an MTV VJ!! Viewed by 1.5 billion people around the world, the MTV broadcast in the US is so memorable for The Wolf and Action Jackson, we couldn't wait to reminisce about it. Talking to one of the original MTV VJs was a dream come true! But that's Part 3, for now listen to our excitement building up to the event, how we snuck off to watch it and the acts stood out early in the broadcast.

On Day 9 of Sean "Diddy" Combs' federal trial, former personal assistant George Kaplan delivered compelling testimony that shed light on the inner workings of Combs' operations. Kaplan recounted an incident aboard a private jet in 2015, where he witnessed Combs allegedly assaulting singer Cassie Ventura. According to Kaplan, he heard glass shattering and saw Combs standing over Ventura, who was on her back with her legs up, seemingly trying to create space. Ventura reportedly screamed, "Isn't anybody seeing this?" as the altercation unfolded. Kaplan also described another episode where he observed Ventura with bruises under her eye, after which Combs instructed him to purchase over-the-counter remedies to conceal the injuries .Beyond these incidents, Kaplan detailed his responsibilities, which extended beyond typical assistant duties. He testified about preparing hotel rooms for Combs' events, ensuring they were stocked with specific items and later cleaning them to protect Combs' public image. Kaplan also mentioned procuring drugs like MDMA for Combs and maintaining a "medicine bag" containing substances such as ketamine and Wellbutrin. Despite expressing admiration for Combs, Kaplan stated that he ultimately resigned in December 2015 due to discomfort with the physical behavior he witnessed .On Day 9 of Sean "Diddy" Combs' federal sex trafficking and racketeering trial, rapper Kid Cudi (Scott Mescudi) delivered a compelling testimony detailing a series of unsettling events he attributed to Combs' jealousy over Cudi's brief relationship with Casandra "Cassie" Ventura in 2011. Cudi recounted receiving a distressed call from Ventura, warning him that Combs had discovered their relationship and had obtained Cudi's home address. Subsequently, Cudi found his Los Angeles home broken into, with Christmas gifts unwrapped and his dog locked in a bathroom. He reported the incident to the police. Weeks later, in early 2012, Cudi's Porsche was destroyed by a Molotov cocktail in his driveway—a retaliatory act he suspected was orchestrated by Combs. Although Combs later denied involvement during a meeting at a Los Angeles hotel, Cudi testified that he believed the incidents were meant to intimidate him.Cudi's testimony aligns with previous allegations made by Ventura in her 2023 lawsuit, where she claimed Combs threatened violence against both her and Cudi upon learning of their relationship. During his testimony, Cudi described Combs' demeanor during their confrontation as reminiscent of a "Marvel supervillain," noting his calmness and the unsettling nature of the encounter. These accounts contribute to the prosecution's narrative of Combs' alleged pattern of coercive and violent behavior to maintain control over individuals in his personal and professional life. Combs has pleaded not guilty to all charges, including racketeering conspiracy and sex trafficking, and faces the possibility of life imprisonment if convicted.Mylah Morales testified about a 2010 incident at the Beverly Hills Hotel during the Grammy Awards weekend. She recounted waking up to the sounds of a heated argument between Combs and Cassie Ventura. After Combs stormed out of the room, Morales found Ventura with visible injuries, including a swollen lip, a black eye, and knots on her head. Concerned for Ventura's safety, Morales took her to her own home and consulted a doctor friend, who advised that Ventura should visit the emergency room. However, Ventura declined to seek medical attention or involve the police. Morales expressed fear for her own safety, stating she was afraid of Combs and feared for her lifeFrederic Zemmour, manager at the L'Ermitage Hotel in Beverly Hills, also testified on Day 9. He stated that Combs' customer profile had several notes to staff, including one that warned he "always spills candle wax on everything and uses excessive amounts of oil." These details were presented to illustrate Combs' behavior and its impact on hotel staff and property.to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.comsource:May 22, 2025 - Day 9 of testimony in the Sean ‘Diddy' Combs trial | CNN
