Send us a textWe start the show by giving our thoughts on HBO's ‘Task'. From the same creators of “Mayor of Kingstown', how do feel it matches up against the long running HBO franchise?

In 2011, Cantor Gaming stormed into Las Vegas with the swagger of Wall Street, led by Howard Lutnick at the helm of the parent company Cantor Fitzgerald and Lee Amaitis running the Nevada operation. Known for pioneering mobile sports wagering and accepting unprecedented high-limit bets—sometimes as large as $500,000—Cantor positioned itself as the cutting edge of sports gaming. To many, it looked like a revolution: bettors flocked to its books at the M Resort and beyond, drawn by the promise of action other operators wouldn't touch. But behind the gloss of innovation, Cantor became entangled in one of the largest illegal betting scandals in modern history. The so-called “Jersey Boys,” an East Coast ring with deep ties to organized bookmaking, infiltrated the operation through Cantor executive Michael “The Computer” Colbert. With Colbert as their insider, the crew laundered millions through Cantor's system, exploiting the company's appetite for volume and its disregard for traditional risk limits.The scheme collapsed in 2012 when Colbert and more than two dozen associates were arrested in a sweeping FBI crackdown. Nevada regulators soon levied one of the largest fines in state history—$5.5 million—citing Cantor's lack of oversight. Amaitis stepped down in 2016, his reputation scarred, while the Cantor brand itself was rebranded as CG Technology in a failed attempt to shed its baggage. By 2020, the company was sold to William Hill, its ambitions of dominating Las Vegas reduced to a cautionary tale. The Jersey Boys scandal not only crippled Cantor but reshaped the entire sports gaming industry, ushering in stricter compliance, tighter wagering oversight, and a lasting reminder that unchecked ambition and Wall Street arrogance could topple even the flashiest of innovators.to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.comBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-epstein-chronicles--5003294/support.

After almost 2 years of Israel's genocide in Gaza, Western powers have issued synchronised declarations recognising Palestinian statehood - a diplomatic move seemingly born out of the immense public pressure they face. What's missing from the story is the concrete measures those governments could take to stop the slaughter in Gaza, as well as their complicity by continuing to supply weapons to Israel.

Donate (no account necessary) | Subscribe (account required) Join Bryan Dean Wright, former CIA Operations Officer, as he dives into today's top stories shaping America and the world. In this episode of The Wright Report, we cover a deadly shooting at an ICE facility in Texas, Gavin Newsom's taunts against federal immigration agents, a trillion-dollar bet on artificial intelligence, and surprising medical news about how common drugs damage the gut. From political violence in Dallas to AI schemes and gut health science, today's brief delivers facts and analysis shaping America's future.   ICE Facility Shooting in Dallas: Joshua Jahn, 29, opened fire on an ICE building with a Mauser-style rifle, killing one illegal alien and injuring two others before taking his own life. He left behind ammo marked “Anti-ICE” and had ties to Communist views similar to his leftist sister. Bryan warns the pattern echoes other recent attacks: “From Trump's assassin in Butler, PA… to Charlie Kirk's killer… these platforms like Steam and Discord are being used to groom young men into violence.”   Newsom Taunts ICE After Signing Five Bills: California Governor Gavin Newsom declared, “To ICE, unmask yourselves. What are you afraid of?” on Colbert's show, less than 24 hours before the Dallas attack. Leftist groups in California are doxxing ICE officers with help from AI activists in Europe, while Democrats push to weaken federal deportation powers. Bryan argues this is about political power, not civil rights: “Schumer and Pelosi said it themselves — they want illegals turned into citizens for votes and control.”   The AI Revolution's Cost and Scheming Risks: OpenAI, Oracle, and SoftBank pledged $500 billion for new U.S. data centers, with utilities warning of grid strain and soaring bills. While AI is helping detect Parkinson's and cancers, researchers admit models are “scheming” — purposely failing to hide competence. Bryan quips, “We're spending a trillion dollars to create systems that lie, hallucinate, and dumb down doctors.”   Common Medications Alter Gut Health for Years: Estonian researchers found antidepressants, beta-blockers, proton pump inhibitors, and benzodiazepines disrupt the gut microbiome as severely as antibiotics. Effects persist long after use, raising risks for diseases like cancer and Alzheimer's. Bryan advises, “If you're on meds, don't forget about your belly — diet, sleep, and exercise matter.”   "And you shall know the truth, and the truth shall make you free." - John 8:32     Keywords: Dallas ICE facility shooting Joshua Jahn, Anti-ICE ammo Mauser rifle, Discord Steam radicalization grooming, Gavin Newsom Colbert ICE taunt, California ICE officer doxxing AI, Schumer Pelosi immigration citizenship votes, OpenAI Oracle SoftBank Stargate $500B, AI data center electricity water grid strain, AI scheming OpenAI ChatGPT, Estonia gut microbiome drugs study, antidepressants beta-blockers proton pump inhibitors benzos, long-term gut health risks cancer Alzheimer's

Tyrus, Fox News contributor, New York Times best-selling author, and former professional wrestler, joined The Guy Benson Show today to talk about his upcoming book What It Is, America, and Tyrus described the story of when he shockingly received his book's foreword from a "presidential" writer. Tyrus also reflected on the tragic assassination of Charlie Kirk, urging that both sides of the aisle resist the temptation for revenge and instead stop dehumanizing one another. Tyrus and Benson also weighed in on Jimmy Kimmel's reinstatement, clarifying why he thinks Kimmel's suspension was not a free speech issue and why no one has a "right" to a late-night show. Tyrus also reacted to Gavin Newsom's alarming comments on Colbert, warning that his rhetoric about his fears that there will not be an "election in 2028" only fuels more political division and potential violence.

Hannah Einbinder had never really acted before she was cast as Ava Daniels opposite Jean Smart's Deborah Vance on ‘Hacks.' Now, she's a three-time Emmy nominee. In this episode, Einbinder opens up about the overconfidence she brings to that role as well the onstage persona she displays in her excellent debut stand-up special ‘Everything Must Go' on Max. She also talks about overcoming the intimidation of acting with Jean Smart, compares the generational gap between their characters to her relationship with her own mother (original SNL cast member Laraine Newman), and reveals how Stephen Colbert helped land her the role that changed her career. And later, Einbinder shares her unfiltered thoughts about the “old f*cking guys” in comedy who complain that political correctness is stifling their craft.

Joshua Jahn, 29 is dead this morning after killing at least 2 & wounding others at an ICE facility in Dallas. This on the heels of Gavin's demonization of Federal agents last night on Colbert. Elsewhere, Jimmy predictably weaseled his way through his opening monologue.

Stephen Colbert travels to London to sit down with the great Gary Oldman, seeking to “fully know” the legendary actor by administering a scientifically-crafted series of questions known as The Colbert Questionert.

Sept. 5-11: Freakazoid runs amuck, the Bible gets a spinoff, Oprah breaks into a million little pieces, Naruto stars its long, long run, Jason Sudeikis is a sex addict, Pinky and the Brain do the same thing they do every night, Hayden Christensen is declared dead, M. Night goes on a visit, and Eugene Levy: action star. All that and more from 30, 20, and 10 years ago.

On Friday's Mark Levin Show, WREC's Ben Ferguson fills in for Mark. No, President Trump didn't act like a dictator and get late-night hosts Stephen Colbert and Jimmy Kimmel fired or canceled. Colbert's show was axed due to financial losses of $40 million annually, low ratings, and audience alienation from anti-conservative bias, with CBS executives confirming the decision was made months earlier and unrelated to Trump or regulatory approvals.  Similarly, Kimmel's suspension stemmed from money-losing operations, a drastic drop in viewership and affiliates like Nexstar and Sinclair refusing to air the show after Kimmel spread lies about Charlie Kirk's killer being MAGA-linked, despite evidence showing the assassin was a leftist. Also, government shouldn't be limiting free speech, particularly those seeking to silence critics via the FCC, as this could backfire severely. Declining mainstream media influence, bolstered by social media and figures like Elon Musk, allows bypassing echo chambers; tolerating opposing views preserves a free country. Later, Trump's announced that his administration is negotiating to reclaim Bagram Air Base from the Taliban because of its national security importance due to its location just an hour from China's nuclear weapons production sites. The Biden administration's Afghanistan withdrawal was chaotic, they abandoned the massive, strategically vital base, allowing China to occupy it. This would be a key achievement in protecting American interests against terrorists and adversaries like China. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit podcastchoices.com/adchoices

Ralph interviews New York Times reporter, David Gelles, about his new book, “Dirtbag Billionaire: How Yvon Chouinard Built Patagonia, Made a Fortune, and Gave It All Away.” Then, we welcome back former IRS commissioner, John Koskinen, to update us on how the Trump Administration is dismantling the IRS and stealing your personal information.David Gelles is a reporter on the New York Times climate team and he leads the Times's “Climate Forward” newsletter and events series. He is the author of The Man Who Broke Capitalism: How Jack Welch Gutted the Heartland and Crushed the Soul of Corporate America—and How to Undo His Legacy, and his new book is Dirtbag Billionaire: How Yvon Chouinard Built Patagonia, Made a Fortune, and Gave It All Away.He [Yvon Chouinard] saw Patagonia as a role model for other corporations and believed that by running Patagonia in a different way, he could show that capitalism just didn't have to suck so much.David GellesThere's a paradox that runs through the pages of Dirtbag Billionaire and it's never fully resolved…It's the fact that Chouinard is an environmentalist who wants to reduce the impact of mankind on planet earth, and yet he runs a big, complicated clothing company that is taking a toll on the environment that he's trying to protect. He runs a company that in theory, he says, and in practice is largely doing, the work of funding grassroots activists and environmental conservation. But he's doing it by participating in the very capitalist system that is responsible for so much of the damage to our natural world. And the list goes on. These contradictions are what really has animated Chouinard and his executive team for all these years. They understand their own perfections. But unlike most, they are willing to really examine their own failings, to look it square in the eye, straight in the mirror, and try to figure out how to make things better.David GellesChouinard being a “dirtbag” is something he always identified as and he still does at a certain level. The great insult in his mind is being called a “billionaire.”David GellesJohn Koskinen served as the IRS Commissioner from 2013 to 2017.Lobbyists and corporations are very good at making sure that [tax advantages] always stayed. You never hear too often of tax advantages taken out of the code, what everybody argues about as new ones being put into the code.John KoskinenThese (IRS workers) are very skilled people who in fact have given up the opportunity to make two or three times more money in the private sector because they believe in public service.John KoskinenNews 9/19/25* Just weeks after David Ellison's Skydance Media completed their $8 billion takeover of Paramount Global, Ellison is setting his sights even higher – a proposed $70 billion acquisition of Warner Bros. Discovery, Variety reports. If this deal proceeds, it would mean that Ellison would control CNN in addition to CBS news, the latter of which he seemingly plans to place under the supervision of “anti-woke” arch-zionist media personality Bari Weiss. While true that cable news does not possess nearly as much clout as it did just a few years ago, this would represent a nearly unprecedented consolidation in that sector. Ellison and his lieutenants would wield a tremendous amount of influence in the media, which would translate to real impacts on the political process. It remains to be seen whether the Trump administration media regulators will take any action to block this deal. Based on their actions so far, it seems unlikely.* In more media news, ABC has indefinitely suspended Jimmy Kimmel Live!, which the comedian has hosted since 2003, after he criticized Trump and his allies for “capitaliz[ing]” on the murder of Charlie Kirk to score political points, CNN reports. Federal Communications Commission Chairman Brendan Carr threatened action up to and including revoking the broadcast license for ABC, which airs the program, or possibly blocking their merger with Nexstar. While Rolling Stone reports multiple executives at ABC and its parent company Disney, felt that Kimmel “had not actually said anything over the line,” they folded immediately under the threat of retaliation by the administration. This move represents a major contradiction of Carr's previously stated belief that “[the FCC] must dismantle the censorship cartel and restore free speech rights for everyday Americans.” Democrats are incensed at this attack on free speech, Congressman Ro Khanna is seeking to subpoena Carr to testify to the House Oversight Committee. Trump, feeling confident after claiming the scalp of both Kimmel and Colbert – two outspoken critics – is now calling for NBC to remove Jimmy Fallon and Seth Meyers, via Truth Social. Variety reports conservative media conglomerate Sinclair will “replace the Friday timeslot of ‘Jimmy Kimmel Live!' with a Charlie Kirk tribute special on its ABC affiliate stations — and is offering the special to all other ABC stations across the country.”* Regarding social media, the Wall Street Journal reports that the U.S. and China are nearing a deal on control of TikTok, under a framework in which “an investor consortium including Oracle... Silver Lake and Andreessen Horowitz” would acquire an 80% stake. Oracle is of course run by David Ellison's father, Larry Ellison, one of the richest men in the world, while Andreessen Horowitz is the venture capital firm of Trump ally Marc Andreessen. Silver Lake is another Silicon Valley private equity firm. This deal would finally put an end to the nebulous legal limbo created by Congress passing the TikTok ban and Trump refusing to enforce it. According to this report, the new company that would be created to run TikTok in America, “would also have an American-dominated board with one member designated by the U.S. government.”* The administration is seeking to shore up support in corporate America in other ways too. Trump has renewed his 2018 push to eliminate the reports businesses are mandated to issue on a quarterly basis, moving to a biannual reporting system. Trump argues that this shift would “cut costs and discourage shortsightedness on the part of publicly traded companies.” Others however believe that this change could be harmful to the economy, making companies less transparent and therefore increasing potential investor risk. The Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) said it is “making Trump's proposal a priority.” This from Reuters.* More troubling signs are emerging in the U.S economy. Per Bloomberg, “Consumers in the top 10% of the income distribution accounted for 49.2% of total spending,” in the second quarter of 2025. This is the highest percentage of consumer spending accounted for by that demographic going back to 1989, according to an analysis of the Federal Reserve's Financial Accounts and Survey of Consumer Finance data conducted by Mark Zandi, chief economist for Moody's. Chandan Economics reports a spike in late rent payments in August, suggesting stress in the “financial health of renter households,” while for homeowners, Polymarket reports that even more people are searching "help with mortgage" on Google than during the 2008 housing crisis. This comes as only 1.3 million home building permits were issued in August, the lowest level since the Spring of 2020, according to economist and Washington Post columnist Heather Long. Taken together, this data paints a picture of an economy flailing, and kept afloat only by the very rich.* Speaking of the very rich, the first American Pope, Leo the XIV, condemned the precipitous rise in CEO pay compared to their employees. Leo remarked that CEOs now make “600 times more than what average workers are receiving," adding "What does that mean…If [money] is the only thing that has value anymore, then we're in big trouble." Specifically, Leo was referring to the proposed new compensation package for Tesla CEO Elon Musk, which could turn the billionaire into a trillionaire. This from Yahoo! Finance. Senator Bernie Sanders echoed this sentiment, writing “The Pope is exactly right. No society can survive when one man becomes a trillionaire while the vast majority struggle to just survive — trying to put food on the table, pay rent and afford health care. We can and must do better.”* Turning to Israel and Gaza, AP reports Jerry Greenfield of Ben & Jerry's is resigning from the company after 47 years. In a letter, Jerry explains that he could not “in good conscience” remain at Ben & Jerry's because their parent company – the British conglomerate Unilever – has been constraining his ability to advocate against the genocide in Gaza. Jerry writes “For more than 20 years under their ownership, Ben & Jerry's stood up and spoke out in support of peace, justice and human rights, not as abstract concepts, but in relation to real events happening in our world…It's profoundly disappointing to come to the conclusion that that independence, the very basis of our sale to Unilever, is gone.” This is the largest, but by no means only, rupture between Ben & Jerry's and Unilever; this report notes “In March Ben & Jerry's said that its CEO was unlawfully removed by Unilever in retaliation for the ice cream maker's social and political activism.” However, as Greenfield's departure illustrates, the founders have little recourse besides their public platform and resignation.* In a sign of Israel's waning influence in the Democratic Party, POLITICO reports Democratic public affairs “megafirm” SKDK has ended their $600,000 contract with the state of Israel which was supposed to run from April 2025 through March 2026. The firm's recent focus had been “pitching guests for news shows to hear Israel's side of the war in Gaza.” The firm has been tight-lipped on this decision, saying only the work “had run its course.” Yet, this decision comes directly on the heels of reporting that Stagwell, the parent company of SKDK, was involved in “setting up a bot program ‘to amplify pro-Israel narratives on Instagram, TikTok, LinkedIn, YouTube, and other platforms,'” as revealed in a Foreign Agents Registration Act filing.* On Wednesday, Senator Bernie Sanders crossed a major rhetorical rubicon, labeling Israel's actions in Gaza a “genocide.” In an op-ed appropriate titled “It Is Genocide,” Sanders cites the casualty totals – noting that “The full toll is likely much higher, with many thousands of bodies buried under the rubble” – along with the Israeli blockade on the enclave and their systematic destruction of Gaza's infrastructure, including hospitals, water and sanitation facilities and schools. Sanders also cites the genocidal intent expressed by Israeli leaders, through quotes like “the Gaza Strip should be flattened, and there should be one sentence for everyone there — death. We have to wipe the Gaza Strip off the map. There are no innocents there.” Sanders concludes this piece by warning that if the world fails to act, as during the Holocaust, Netanyahu and other “demagogues” will feel emboldened. History, Sanders writes “demands that the world act with one voice to say: enough is enough. No more genocide.” After Sanders' announcement, Vermont Congresswoman Becca Balint came out with her own statement accepting the genocide label. Zeteo reports a total of 20 members of Congress now say Israel is committing genocide.* Finally, to end on a positive note, on Monday the House passed the bipartisan Mental Health in Aviation Act, which seeks to “break down…barriers and support the mental health of our aviation workforce by changing the current rules which prevent aviation professionals from seeking mental health care by imposing unfair penalties on those who do,” according to a press release by the bill's Republican sponsor Pete Stauber. A press release from the Democratic sponsor, Sean Casten, reads “Aviators should not be unfairly penalized for seeking mental health care…The current system perpetuates a culture of silence, and it's past time that changes.” Some observers have attributed some credit for the passage of this bill to the comedian Nathan Fielder's series The Rehearsal, the latest season of which dealt extensively with the issue of aviators' mental health. While congressional staff have downplayed the show's influence, it seems hard to deny that at the very least it raised the profile of this pressing issue. Either way, hopefully this bill will make it safer to fly by removing the stigma from pilots seeking mental healthcare.

Episode 206 of the What Are We Doing podcast is stacked, babes. This week I'm back with a fresh nose piercing, courtesy of a throwback prom fundraiser for breast cancer research. Fifty bucks, one piercing, and apparently I've advanced science by a decade. You're welcome.From there, we break open the wildest headline of 2025: Taylor Swift arrested on weapons and drug charges after a standoff on her tour bus. Yes, you heard that right. Submachine guns, meth, fentanyl, explosives—the whole DEA starter pack. Is it a setup by Scooter Braun? Was it Travis Kelce with the diamond playbook? I lay out the only logical defense strategy.Then we roll straight into late-night chaos. Jimmy Kimmel got yanked off ABC after Sinclair flexed their conservative media monopoly muscles. Fallon cracked a bad joke. Colbert pretended to care. And the whole thing proves once again that freedom of speech doesn't mean what you think it does when billionaires run TV.Meanwhile, Trump's busy bragging about his $250 million White House ballroom like it's a new Bass Pro Shop, and I'm praying aliens blow the roof off 20 minutes after the first dinner service. Jimmy Kimmel is out, Charlie Kirk's assassination fallout continues, and somehow librarians in Pennsylvania are now part of the culture war. What are we doing?And just when you thought you could breathe—Dunkin Donuts decided to double the points needed for a free iced coffee. Nine hundred points. Nine. Hundred. Points. In this economy. We need to rally the Cracker Barrel Army and launch a full-blown digital assault to get those rewards rolled back.Plus, I react to the new Now You See Me 3 trailer, Elon Musk's AI “Grok” Twitter takeover, and why Hollywood thinks dropping ChatGPT references makes movies relevant. Spoiler: it doesn't.It's chaos from start to finish. Grab your Dude Robe (promo code WAWD for 20% off at duderobe.com) and tune in, because this week's episode is a doozy.*************************************************************✅DUDEROBE - PROMO CODE: WAWD 20% OFFhttps://duderobe.com - promo code: WAWD*************************************************************Disclaimer: We at the What are We Doing podcast want to make it clear that the views and opinions expressed in this video belong solely to the speakers or authors and do not represent the views and opinions held by YouTube, its partners, or its owners.We must also emphasize that the information contained in this video has been produced with no warranty, expressed or implied, regarding the validity, accuracy, reliability, completeness, legality, or usefulness of what is said or expressed.

Glossys time! Taylor Swift is rumoured to be dropping a secret movie next month to go with her brand-new album. Meanwhile, Hollywood is buzzing—Jimmy Kimmel’s suspension has other late-night hosts like Letterman, Colbert and Fallon weighing in on censorship. Reese Witherspoon’s gone full Nicole Kidman in a spot-on impression, and Cardi B’s flogging CDs from the boot of a car with Gayle King riding shotgun.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Today we learned that kids can’t read analogue clocks anymore – one poor student even thought 9:58 was “9:8.” Then in a police interrogation, a suspect accidentally let one rip right as he was being charged… earning Priyanka Chopra’s old nickname “Farty Chopra” a comeback. Over in the Glossys: Jimmy Kimmel’s suspension has Colbert, Letterman and Fallon all up in arms, Reese Witherspoon does a killer Nicole Kidman impression, and Cardi B’s flogging CDs from a car boot with Gayle King. Oh, and Snoop Dogg says Stevie Wonder is the only artist he’d ever need, while Benson Boone’s cameraman got arrested for literally taking the piss in a Florida shop.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

When billion-dollar networks like CBS and ABC cave to political pressure and late-night stars like Colbert and Kimmel get muzzled, what chance does a small-town publisher have? If Washington can bend the most prominent players in media, local newspapers — already stretched thin by lawsuits, advertiser boycotts, and the rise of AI — are staring down an even harsher storm. That's why Bob Corn-Revere, one of America's top First Amendment lawyers, warns now is the moment to stiffen spines. “A spine is a terrible thing to waste,” he said — and for publishers, wasting it could mean losing the last line of defense for democracy.

Let's be clear what the indefinite suspension of Jimmy Kimmel on ABC is really about. Similarly, with Colbert and the Late Show termination. The market is reacting - not the government. So be aware as the left tries to make this about voices being silenced by Trump. That's what the left does. Not conservatives. Stigall eulogizes late night comedy today. Plus, important conversations with Eric Trump as he documents his family's long history on the receiving end of legal, financial, and literal targeting in his brand new book "Under Siege: My Family's Fight to Save Our Nation." Harmeet Dhillon - now assistant Attorney General at DOJ joins the show and gives us a peek inside her work trying to reform the corrupt system and return to a baseline of justice for all. Plus, the targeting of people of faith must be front and center because it's far bigger than politics with Brad Brandon who's authored a Daily Wire piece "Why Christians and Jews are Facing a Wave of Hostility." And President Trump dazzles and deals in the UK. What's he trying to get accomplished?

Chris Ricobono walked into garment makers all over the fashion district in New York and no one would make an off spec shirt for him. Dave Young: Welcome to the Empire Builders Podcast, teaching business owners the not-so-secret techniques that took famous businesses from mom and pop to major brands. Stephen Semple is a marketing consultant, story collector, and storyteller. I'm Stephen's sidekick in business partner Dave Young. Before we get into today's episode, a word from our sponsor, which is, well, it's us, but we're highlighting ads we've written and produced for our clients. So here's one of those. [Pinpoint Payments Ad] Dave Young: Welcome back to the Empire Builders Podcast, Dave Young here alongside Stephen Semple. And we're talking about empires being built and fortunes being made and brands being established and something different happening. And you mentioned the theme for today's show. The topic is a shirt brand called Untuck it. Stephen Semple: Untuck it, Dave Young: And I am a little familiar with them. Number one, Stephen Semple: Oh my God, a fashion brand that Dave's a little bit familiar with. Dave Young: Oh, I own two of them. I have two shirts. And I feel like I'm responsible for the brand. Stephen Semple: Okay. Dave Young: I'm just that kind of guy that my torso is the weird length and I cannot for the life of me keep a shirt tucked in. So years ago, I quit trying, unless I'm going to be in a tuxedo with a cummerbund that tightens that up. I'm like, you're not going to find me in a tucked in shirt because it'll untuck itself. So I've always embraced the idea of buy shirts that look good, whether they're tucked in or not, and Untuck It actually created dress shirts. Stephen Semple: Yes, sir. Dave Young: That you don't tuck in. You've got quite enough tail to be tucked in. So I'm interested in how they got their start. And I bought my two shirts from an actual Untuck store in a mall in Portland, Oregon. Stephen Semple: There you go. Yeah. Dave Young: So I think I know where you're headed with this, the experience. Stephen Semple: Yeah. Today they have, I think they're approaching 90 stores now today, and they also now have got a women's line and of course a major strong online presence. But it was founded by Chris Ricobono and Aaron Sendez in Hoboken, New Jersey in 2010. And they are, as you said, a shirt designed to be worn untucked. And in fact, their early ads featured Chris basically walking down the road talking about how this is what he wanted to create. And they're kind of funny actually. If you go look at them, they're a great origin story. And he's walking down the street in New Jersey and he has this unbelievably serious tone to him about how he wanted to fix this whole shirt problem. And that actually in the early days, David Letterman and Colbert and whatnot were making fun of these ads, which he loved. Like, "Hey, I'm getting some free press here." But yeah, go and check them out on YouTube. Kind of great. I can really understand why those ads work. So Chris grew up in New Jersey and he took finance and college, and he was actually always really nervous about corporate America. He was worried about his career. And so his whole idea was he was going to get a job, but while he got the job, he was going to look for what the next thing was going to be. So he was always looking for the next idea. And he was nervous in corporate America because he wasn't good in crowds, and he wasn't good with spreadsheets and he wasn't good with socializing. So he always sort of felt like he was an outsider there And eventually got a job being a salesperson and medical devices for GE. And he was there for about 10 years, but he knew he was never going to be long-term. And while he was at GE, he did an MBA at Columbia and it stimulated a lot of ideas for him, and he knew he needed to get an idea.

Compare and contrast as ACB and Sotomayor ride (media) circuit. ----- Amy Coney Barrett and Sonia Sotomayor are both hitting the talk shows and it's highlighting how awkward the nation's relationship with the Supreme Court really is. Barrett went on Fox and accurately stated that the Constitution prohibits Trump running for a third term. Then the host offered a "wink wink" prompt and she started backpedaling. Meanwhile, Sotomayor went on Colbert and bent over backward to give her conservative colleagues the benefit of the doubt, requiring Colbert to step in and remind us of the fire in Sotomayor's dissent. Two very different media hits, but a consistent reminder that the justices just aren't willing to forge a genuine connection with the public over media. Also, Ropes & Gray maintains a single-tier partnership (for now) and Megan Thee Stallion case introduces the world to process servers taking things up a notch.

This episode is with Ross Colbert, lifelong horseman, investment banker, polo junkie, and 70-year-old finisher of the Mongol Derby. And not just any finisher. Ross crossed the line dead last. But what happened in those 10 days is the stuff you don't hear about in the press releases. He got lost in the mountains, had his horse chased by dogs, was thrown, walked solo for miles, slept alone by a river, and still managed to roll into camp with his horse sound and his head high.We talk about the years he spent dreaming of Mongolia, what it took to prep, what gear saved his ass (literally), and how he avoided the saddle sores that plagued most of the field. Ross also shares what it felt like to come home, how the Derby rewired his perspective on business, resilience, and what he's still capable of. It's one of the most honest and human accounts of the Derby you'll hear.Key topics we discussed in 5 bullet points:Ross's early involvement with horses, growing up on a farm, riding, polo, and how that shaped his relationship with horses and risk.How the idea of doing the Mongol Derby was planted from meeting his wife, her research on Genghis Khan and the Silk Road, eloping in Mongolia, seeing the Derby, and holding that dream over the years.The training and preparation: building endurance, lots of saddle time, attending a Derby boot camp, gear, avoiding saddle sores, etc.The race itself: checkpoints missed, stone bruised horse, getting thrown, losing tack, walking sections, getting lost in high terrain, nights alone, mindset through setbacks.The aftermath: finishing last but finishing strong, what came home with him beyond the race (resilience, optimism, what he now knows about himself and what he's capable of), reflections on business, horses, and what's next.If you liked this episode, hit subscribe so you don't miss the next wild Derby story or horse‑person journey. And if you feel moved, share it with someone who needs a boost of grit or has ever wondered what's possible when you keep going.Follow @horsepeoplepodcast for more cross discipline stories and content.
