Marc Berte is the Co-founder and CEO of Overview Energy, a startup developing space-based solar power systems designed to turn existing solar farms into around-the-clock power generators. By placing satellites in geosynchronous orbit, collecting near-continuous sunlight, and beaming energy back to Earth as safe near-infrared light, Overview aims to dramatically increase the utilization of solar infrastructure already deployed around the world.  In this episode of Inevitable, Marc explains how space solar works and how Overview's approach differs from decades of prior space solar concepts. He talks about the economics of “photon fuel,” the company's gigawatt-scale agreement with Meta, and the concept of “supply response”—delivering power exactly where and when grids need it most.  The conversation explores the manufacturing challenges of deploying thousands of satellites, the role of defense and energy security applications, and why the long-term value of solar assets could change dramatically if space-based power delivery becomes commercially viable.  Finally, he shares one of the more unconventional engineering stories you'll hear this year: how 75 pounds of Otter Pops helped cool Overview's airborne power-beaming demonstration system.

Watching the World Cup come to Dallas this year gave me a front-row seat to something most of us miss in our daily lives: the things we take for granted are literally blowing people's minds from across the globe. In this episode, I break down three sharp lessons the World Cup is teaching me about gratitude, commitment, and competing with respect. The peace you find somewhere else is the peace you brought with you, and if you want proof, just watch a guy from Italy lose his mind over free refills. This one will make you rethink where you are, how you show up, and who you keep showing up for. Key Takeaways The happiness and opportunity you think exists somewhere else is already available where you are. Change your lens before you change your location. The peace you find at the top of a mountain is the peace you brought there. Who you are follows you everywhere. If something truly matters to people, they will sacrifice and show up for it. That standard applies to how you show up for yourself too. You are the most neglected person in your own calendar. Blocking time for yourself is not optional. It is the foundation of showing up for everyone else. Competing with respect means recognizing that most people are chasing the same core goals. Celebrate differences without losing sight of shared purpose. Action Steps Identify one thing in your immediate life you have been overlooking or taking for granted, and spend five minutes today acknowledging its value. Block a recurring time on your calendar this week that is exclusively for you. Treat it with the same weight you would give a meeting with someone you deeply respect. Before your next competitive or high-stakes situation, find one thing to genuinely respect about the person or team across from you and let that shape how you engage. Notable Quote The peace you find at the top of a mountain is the peace that you brought there. Who you are is how it's going to be wherever you are.

Michael McFaul recommends helping Ukraine win the war to undermine Putin's grip on power, as a democratic Ukraine directly contradicts Putin's narrative that Russians require a strong dictatorship. He also stresses the importance of competing for talent by attracting educated Russian and Chinese citizens to the United States through smarter immigration policies. During the Cold War, the ability to draw in the world's smartest people was a major American advantage that is currently being hindered by restrictive visa rules. Strengthening this "brain drain" from autocracies is vital for long-term technological and economic competition. (7)1900 BAKU

We sound the Rami alarm this week to check the health of the industry after a massive week of game announcements from Summer Game Fest! We go over the Nintendo Direct, pick out some games we're excited about go into the history of 1666: Amsterdam. With the extreme slate of new games on the horizon comes news of Microsoft looking to downsize and possibly sell off the XBOX brand and what that means for everyone else.

15 state titles.A national championship relay.And a runner determined to prove that Washington, DC deserves a place in the national conversation.This week on The Sunday Shakeout, I sat down with Georgetown Visitation rising senior Abby Anstett.The Vienna, Virginia native has quietly built one of the most accomplished resumes in high school distance running. Competing for Georgetown Visitation in Washington, DC, Anstett has become a 15-time DC State Champion while helping elevate a region that often goes overlooked on the national stage.Her 2026 indoor season was a breakthrough.At Nike Indoor Nationals, Anstett placed third in the Championship Mile against one of the deepest fields in the country. Later that same day, she returned to lead Georgetown Visitation's 4x800-meter relay to a national title, one of the defining moments of her career.What makes Anstett's story especially unique is where it has unfolded.Unlike many elite programs across the country, Georgetown Visitation does not have its own track. Training in the heart of Washington, DC has required creativity, adaptability, and a willingness to embrace limitations that many athletes never face.In this conversation, we dive into why Abby believes DC track and field remains one of the most underappreciated regions in the country. We discuss what it means to carry the expectations that come with being a perennial state champion, how she learned to become a racer rather than simply a runner.More than anything, this episode is about perspective.It's about maximizing what you have, representing something bigger than yourself, and finding ways to grow even when you're already winning.Tap into the Abby Anstett Special.If you enjoy the podcast, please consider following The Sunday Shakeout on Spotify and Apple Podcasts and giving us a five-star review.

Our Club Spotlight series is returning for a special World Cup edition! At this season's tournament, we have four nations competing at their first World Cup: Curaçao, Cabo Verde, Uzbekistan, and Jordan. As the competition progresses, we will be highlighting each footballing nation – exploring their political, geographical, and sporting histories and learning how they got here. First up is Curaçao, the smallest nation by population to ever qualify for a World Cup! Only autonomous since 2010, the island has seen many centuries of colonial transition and tumult. We discuss its complex history with Europeans – namely The Netherlands, the slave trade, the oil industry, and its long road to independence. We then break down some its rich sporting culture. Competing as The Netherlands Antilles, Curaçao actually had a previous golden era of football in the 1940s and 50s, led by the legendary goalkeeper, Ergilio Hato. Why has this period been somewhat lost to history outside of the Caribbean? Finally we move to the present day, where we learn how the federation was able to build a new era of footballing success, with help from Patrick Kluivert, Dick Advocaat, and players recruited from the mainland Netherlands. What should viewers expect from this edition of the Curaçao side? How do they set up? What are their chances in a stacked Group E? Cheers to Curaçao and The Blue Wave!

David Schoen was one of the lawyers Jeffrey Epstein consulted near the end of his life, and his account matters because he says Epstein personally denied that the July 2019 neck-injury incident at the Metropolitan Correctional Center was a suicide attempt. According to Schoen, Epstein told him that his cellmate, Nicholas Tartaglione, had caused the injury during what was described as some kind of “experiment,” “prank,” or jailhouse incident involving something placed around Epstein's neck. Schoen has said Epstein claimed he stayed quiet because he did not want to be labeled suicidal and placed under the restrictions that would come with suicide watch.The Tartaglione claim remains one of the murkier pieces of the Epstein jail timeline because the accounts shifted. Reporting and later records indicate Epstein initially blamed Tartaglione for the injuries, then later walked that back during an internal prison interview, saying he did not feel threatened and attributing the episode to insomnia or distress. Tartaglione has repeatedly denied harming Epstein, and an internal prison investigation reportedly cleared him of responsibility, but the episode still matters because it raises obvious questions about MCC supervision, the handling of Epstein's mental-health status, and why a detainee with Epstein's profile was left in such a volatile and poorly monitored environment in the first place.to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.com

Ryan Gibson is a former 17-year Delta and Alaska Airlines pilot turned self-storage mogul, now operating as one of the 29th largest self-storage operators in the country with over $1 billion in assets and 7.5 million square feet under management through his company, Spartan Investors.   In this first of a two-part series, Ryan joins host Chris Pre to break down why self-storage is one of the most recession-resilient asset classes available, how to use seller financing to acquire deals without banks, and what it really looks like to build a 200-person business while still flying commercial jets — and then finally walk away on your own terms.   Key Talking Points of the Episode   00:00 Introduction 01:08 Passive Income Pilots podcast 02:20 How Ryan and Tait met and started Passive Income Pilots 04:48 The importance of financial and time freedom for pilots 06:03 The 3 Paydays System 08:33 Deep dive into self-storage as an asset class 10:09 Why more Americans use self-storage than fly on airplanes 11:08 The 5 Ds of self-storage demand 13:29 Opportunities for mom-and-pop owned facilities 14:02 Competing with "big money" in smaller markets 15:48 Building trust and uncollateralizing notes 17:12 Typical terms for syndicated real estate deals 19:20 Advice for W-2 employees considering the jump into business 21:07 The psychological benefits of maintaining a professional career 24:42 Preview of part 2: Diversification with Tait Duryea 26:40 3 Paydays Live Event   5 Key Takeaways Self-Storage Wins in Any Economy — The five D's (Death, Displacement, Downsizing, Divorce, Diapers) drive self-storage demand through recessions, COVID, and market downturns alike. Occupancy often increases during economic disruption — not despite it. Avoid Institutional Competition by Going Small — Big money chases 100,000+ sq ft facilities in core markets. The 10,000–20,000 sq ft mom-and-pop space is largely ignored by institutions, which means less competition and far more seller-financing opportunities for individual investors. Seller Financing Is About Aligning Motivations — Ryan's first seller didn't want the note paid off because of capital gains exposure. Understanding why a seller needs what they need — not convincing them — is what makes creative financing work. Authentic outreach and trust over time unlocked a $1.1M carry-back note that followed them to the next deal. Keep Your W-2 While You Build — Ryan flew commercially for 8 to 9 years while building a 200-person company. For airline pilots with flexible schedules, there's little reason to abandon high W-2 income early. Use the schedule, build with urgency during off days, and only step away when the business demands it. ROI on Life Matters as Much as ROI on Investment — Ryan shifted from active flipping to passive investing vehicles because he wanted to give other pilots a great return without sacrificing their time. The goal isn't just financial — it's building a portfolio that gives you back control of how you spend your days.   Links   3 Paydays® Live https://3paydayslive.com/podcast   Free Discovery Call https://smartrealestatecoachpodcast.com/discovery   3 Paydays® System Mastery Course - Use coupon code for 50% off https://smartrealestatecoach.com/qls Coupon code: pod   Apprentice Program 3PaydaysApprentice.com/Podcast    Masterclass https://smartrealestatecoach.com/masterspodcast   3 Paydays Books https://3paydaysbooks.com/podcast   Partners https://smartrealestatecoach.com/podcastresources

What does your spouse feel like they're competing with? Your phone? Your work? The kids? Your hobbies? Stress? Exhaustion? In many marriages, emotional distance doesn't happen because love disappears. It happens because connection slowly gets replaced by distractions, priorities, and competing demands. In Episode 298 of The Family Meeting Podcast, we talk about the hidden things spouses often feel they are competing against for your time, attention, emotional energy, and affection, and how those patterns quietly damage intimacy and connection. In this episode, we cover: Why emotional neglect often happens unintentionally. Common "competitors" that slowly pull couples apart. How phones, stress, work, hobbies, and parenting affect connection. Signs your spouse feels emotionally deprioritized. Practical ways to rebuild intentional connection. How to make your marriage feel emotionally safe and prioritized again. Biblical wisdom for protecting intimacy and connection in marriage. Your spouse should not constantly feel like they're fighting for your attention. Healthy marriages are built when couples intentionally protect connection from the things trying to steal it.

Tartaglione has repeatedly denied harming Epstein, and an internal prison investigation reportedly cleared him of responsibility, but the episode still matters because it raises obvious questions about MCC supervision, the handling of Epstein's mental-health status, and why a detainee with Epstein's profile was left in such a volatile and poorly monitored environment in the first place.to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.comBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-epstein-chronicles--5003294/support.

In this first episode of our Forza Athletics Performance With Purpose Podcast, I had the great pleasure to speak with Emory University Throwing Coach Jordan Crayon. Jordan is a multiple time Division II National Champion in the weigh throw and hammer throw. We first spoke to Jordan over six years ago. A lot has changed since then, specifically Jordan's time as both a professional hammer thrower and assistant track and field coach at Emory University. Most recently, Jordan threw a new personal best in the hammer throw of over 75m, his first personal best season since before COVID. In this episode, Jordan and I discussed:1. Training as a professional hammer thrower2. The 2016 and 2021 Olympic Trials3. Competing at USATF Outdoor National Championships4. Balancing coaching and throwing

At the 2025 artistic gymnastics World Cup in Doha, Sam Mostowfi claimed the bronze medal on floor exercise, earning one of the most significant international results of his career.That performance helped secure his selection for Great Britain at the FISU World University Games in Germany. Competing against some of the world's best gymnasts, Mostowfi finished 14th in the all-around final and qualified for the floor exercise final. There, he lined up alongside elite international talent, including reigning Olympic champion Oka Shinnosuke and European champion Luke Whitehouse.The start of the 2026 season brought another opportunity on the international stage at the American Cup, where Mostowfi competed in the mixed team event. However, his momentum was interrupted when he suffered an injury on his favourite apparatus, tearing his plantar fascia during a floor routine.Despite this setback, Mostowfi remains part of an exceptionally strong British men's gymnastics squad, a group of athletes all striving to earn a place on Team GB for the 2028 Summer Olympics in Los Angeles.What sets Sam apart is not only his ability as a gymnast, but also the way he maximises every opportunity that comes his way. Whether competing on the world stage, balancing the demands of elite sport and education, or overcoming the challenges that inevitably accompany high-performance gymnastics, he continues to demonstrate resilience, ambition and determination.This is the story of a gymnast pursuing excellence, overcoming adversity, and chasing an Olympic dream.This is Sam Mostowfi's story.

The dueling accounts laid out by Collin County prosecutors and Anthony's defense attorneys Thursday in the trial's first hours offered sharply different perspectives jurors will be asked to weigh as the testimony unfolds. In other news, Jake Lang, a far-right influencer who has repeatedly tried to stoke racial strife in North Texas and nationwide, is blocked from attending the murder trial of Karmelo Anthony; Dallas Mayor Eric Johnson wants the city to leave City Hall and redevelop the land, calling the building's repair costs too high; and if you are planning to drive to World Cup games played at Arlington's AT&T stadium, well, you should know that parking will cost significantly more than you'd pay for a Dallas Cowboys game, with some parking slots going for as much as $500.

Send us Fan MailOne of the most common things people hear in sports, business, and personal development is, “Don't think about the outcome.”I understand why people say it. If you become obsessed with results, pressure can build quickly. You can lose focus, force things, and start worrying more about the future than what needs to happen right now.But I also believe something important gets missed when people say that.You need something to shoot for.You need vision.You need purpose.You need a target that inspires you to get out of bed in the morning and keep moving forward when things become difficult.When I was part of the New York Rangers, we absolutely thought about the outcome. From the first day of training camp, the goal was clear. We wanted to win the Stanley Cup.That vision mattered.It created belief inside the locker room. It gave players direction. It unified the team around a common purpose. Nobody walked into that season hoping to simply “see what happens.” We believed we could accomplish something special.But here is the key.After setting the goal, we put it aside.We did not wake up every day talking about lifting the Stanley Cup. We focused on what needed to happen that day. Practice. Conditioning. Recovery. Communication. Accountability. Film sessions. Competing in drills. Supporting teammates. Managing emotions. Preparing mentally and physically.The outcome gave us direction.The process gave us progress.That lesson applies to every part of life.So many people today either become obsessed with the result or they lose motivation because the result feels too far away. They focus so much on the future that they stop being present in the daily work that actually creates success.Championships are not built in one moment.Confidence is not built in one moment.Transformation is not built in one moment.It happens through consistent daily action.One workout at a time.One healthy decision at a time.One conversation at a time.One practice at a time.One choice at a time.The people who perform at a high level understand how to stay present while still keeping a larger vision in mind. They know how to separate goals from daily execution.That is where mindset becomes so important.Pressure often comes from living too far ahead mentally. You start worrying about whether you will succeed, fail, impress people, make money, win the championship, recover from adversity, or achieve your goals.Meanwhile, your power only exists in the present moment.The best athletes and performers are able to bring themselves back to the task directly in front of them.The next shift.The next meeting.The next rep.The next opportunity.That does not mean the goal disappears. The vision remains in the background as fuel and motivation. But your focus stays connected to preparation and execution.This is something I have seen repeatedly, both in sports and in life.The people who grow the most are usually the people who commit to the process without constantly needing immediate results. They trust the work. They understand that progress takes time. They know there will be setbacks, adversity, frustration, and moments where things do not go according to plan.But they continue showing up anyway.That is where real confidence comes from.Confidence is not just positive thinking. Confidence is built through preparation, repetition, resilience, and learning how to stay steady under pressure.Even during difficult moments on our Stanley Cup team, we did not panic and suddenly abandon the process. We trusted our preparation. We trusted each other. We trusted the work we had already put in.That mindset matters everywhere.In business, people often focus so much on the final goal that they burn themselves out chasing quick results.In health and fitness, people become discouraged because they do not see changes fast enough.In parenting, athletes, leadership, and personal growth, people sometimes expect overnight transformation.But meaningful growth rarely happens overnight.The process is where growth lives.The process teaches discipline.The process teaches patience.The process teaches resilience.The process teaches presence.And many times, when you fully commit yourself to the daily process, the outcome begins to take care of itself.That does not mean every goal will happen exactly the way you imagined. Life does not always work that way. But focusing on the process gives you the best possible opportunity to create success while also enjoying the journey along the way.At the end of the day, having a vision is important.Goals matter.Dreams matter.Outcomes matter.But after setting the goal, the challenge becomes learning how to return your attention back to the daily work required to get there.Stay present.Trust the process.Focus on what you can control.Keep showing up.That is how big goals eventually become reality.Discover the limitless potential of The Healthy Mindset Application (App) with our exclusive Application Assess, Educate, Coach approach.

My guest today is Dara Khosrowshahi, the CEO of Uber. Before Uber, Dara ran Expedia for thirteen years. We start with why he took this job in 2017, and a big part of that story is Daniel Ek, who told him that life is not about happiness, it is about impact. We talk about what the chaos felt like on day one, and how his family leaving Iran when he was nine shaped the way he handles pressure today.  We spend most of our time on autonomous vehicles and Uber's role as the demand aggregator in a world of physical AI. Dara explains why Uber is a supply-led company, what it will take to win, and why he expects many winners in AVs rather than one.  We also discuss Uber's $10 billion in free cash flow, the push toward a single app for everything, and what he has learned from Allen & Co, Barry Diller and Reed Hastings.

The Real Reason More Offers Means Less Revenue 92% of the people I thought I was preparing for my signature offer never bought it. For years, I sold List Builders Society as the on-ramp into Digital Course Academy. Only 8% of them made it there. The program I'd built specifically to bridge my buyers into my biggest offer was actually a dead end for the other 92%. You may have a version of this in your business right now. The course came first. The membership came later. The coaching program came in when your most committed buyers wanted more access to you. Every decision was right when you made it, and now they're all on the menu at once, quietly competing for the same buyer. In this episode, I'm walking you through the three signs your offers are working against each other, the four-question audit that shows you your entire offer ecosystem in under an hour, and the one repositioning move that brings every program in your business back into a clear path your customer can follow. RESOURCES MENTIONED IN THIS EPISODE: Revenue highs are exciting. The unexplainable dips that follow? Not so much. If you are a female founder making six figures or more annually, the problem isn't that things aren't working. It's that you can't yet see what is. And you can't repeat what you can't see. My free live training, The Revenue Consistency Formula, fixes that. Click here to join. High-six-figures is a ceiling for a reason. What got you here stops working here. If you're a female founder earning $500K or more annually and you've already tried it all, what you need next isn't another strategy. It's someone inside your business showing you the way forward. The Milly Club is my private six-month coaching program for women growing toward their first million. Apply here. HERE ARE THE 3 KEY TAKEAWAYS FROM THIS EPISODE: 1️⃣ Offers Built One at a Time Will Quietly Compete With Each Other — Most six- and seven-figure businesses weren't designed. They were stacked. When you can hear yourself describing two of your offers in nearly identical language with slightly different price tags, you've found a competition point. A buyer staring at two doors to the same room walks away with neither. 2️⃣ A Healthy Bridge Offer Converts at Least 20% Forward — Pull the conversion rate from your entry-level offer into your bigger program. Twenty percent or higher means the bridge is working. Anything under that is telling you the gap lives in the path between them. 3️⃣ Your Signature Offer Gets 80% of Your Focus — Your signature is the one program you'd keep if you could only keep one. From the moment you name it, every other offer answers one question: does it bring people in or give them somewhere to go after? If it can't do either, retire it.MORE FROM ME Follow me on Instagram @amyporterfield SUBSCRIBE & REVIEW If you loved this episode, please take a moment to subscribe and leave a review on Apple Podcasts!

Tawny went to her first rock concert at age 14, saw how the singer's girlfriend got full VIP access and treatment and decided, “hey, I want that.” Tawny went out and made that happen. A rocker gal by nature, Tawny dated the guitarist from Ratt while in high school. From there she graduated, and “graduated”, by marrying Whitesnake's lead singer. Although they divorced years later, she is most notorious for being “that girl” in the Whitesnake video. With that career defining moment she went from “groupie” to wife and celebrity. Choreographer Paula Abdul took one look at Tawny's moves on the set of the Whitesnake video shoot and said, “you don't need my help” and left! Tawny graced our small screens with roles on many of our beloved shows including Seinfeld (who she also dated), Married...With Children and America's Funniest People. Before it was the “cool” thing to do, Tawny transitioned from “actress” to reality star starring in VH1s “The Surreal Life” and “Celebrity Rehab with Dr. Drew”. Speaking of Reality TV, who could forget Tawny's 2017 appearance on E's mega-hit Botched with Doctors Terry Dubrow and Paul Nassif. There was also that star studded role with Tom Hanks in Bachelor Party. Of course, being in the OC, we also talk the good and bad of RHOC.  Part II starts now. @tawnykitaenofficial @behindvelvetrope @davidyontef BONUS & AD FREE EPISODES Available at - www.patreon.com/behindthevelvetrope  BROUGHT TO YOU BY: ZENNI OPTICAL -  zenni.com/podcast (Use Code Podcast15 For 15% Off Your First Order Of The Most Affordable, Stylish Glasses and Sunglasses) ADVERTISING INQUIRIES - Please contact David@advertising-execs.com Learn more about your ad choices.
