Podcasts about Contingencies

Today we begin with Nick Fuentes—how did he go from a guy with Jewish friends, to someone who is proudly anti-Semitic? Why does “anti-Semitic” now have so many meanings? What are the differences between preference, discrimination, and bigotry? Then: Bill Gates changes his tune on climate change—or does he? His new memo still sounds the alarm about Carbon, but also privileges his pet projects of vaccinating the world and handing agriculture to the technologists. Finally: manta rays, how smart they are, how they respond to mirrors, and how much time they spend at the spa.*****Our sponsors:Branch Basics: Get 15% off Branch Basics with the code DARKHORSE at https://branchbasics.com/darkhorse #branchbasicspodFresh Pressed Olive Oil Club: Scrumptious & freshly harvested.

 8. Monuments, Darkness, and Contingency Professor Robert G. Parkinson, Heart of American Darkness: Bewilderment and Horror on the Early Frontier This section highlights the enduring conflict, which extended into the early 20th century through a "monument war" near Logan's Elm in Ohio. The Cresap Society funded a monument to clear their family name, leading locals to erect counter-monuments with the lament's text and a statue of Logan. Parkinson utilizes Joseph Conrad's metaphor of "the flicker" (human systems like patriotism, colonialism, and republics) attempting to illuminate the terrifying, bewildering "darkness" of the world. He notes that the aggressive colonial expansion seemed inevitable, but the specific outcomes were shaped by contingency and the biographies of individuals like Logan and Michael Cresap, whose actions were enabled and celebrated by the new American Republic. 1958

Psychiatrist Dr. Sally Satel, medical director of a methadone clinic, explains contingency management - a harm-reduction approach where clients receive small, escalating rewards (e.g., gift cards) for clean tests. She covers why this behavioural nudge works especially for stimulant addictions (where no gold-standard meds exist), typical program structures, cost/benefit logic, and how incentives can jump-start a virtuous cycle toward work, relationships, and stability. A nuanced, evidence-informed look at an approach that's effective yet often misunderstood. Find out more on Substack and connect on X/Twitter.

Contingencies are back — and they're anything but simple. In today's market, contingent offers are popping up left and right, and we've got stories. From getting stuck in a 60-day stalemate to crafting creative clauses that save the deal, we're sharing what it really looks like to handle contingent offers like a pro. This episode is not your typical contract rundown (although if that's what you want, check out Episode 218). Instead, we're digging into real-life examples of contingencies gone sideways and how those experiences have changed the way we approach them forever. Whether you're the listing agent fielding a “my house isn't even on the market yet” offer, or the buyer's agent trying to keep your clients from panicking mid-deal — this one's for you. Here's what we cover in this episode: The #1 mistake agents make with contingent buyers Why contingent offers feel riskier in today's buyer-driven market How to protect your seller and keep the deal alive Contingency timelines that actually work Why listing status changes matter more than you think The verbiage Katy and Alissa now add to every contingency deal What to do when your buyer panics mid-transaction How to coach buyers and sellers through backup plans (Plan A, B, and C!) Key Quotes & Takeaways “You're on a train headed nowhere — that's what it feels like when a contingency stalls.” — Alissa “Buyers see contingent status and think it's pending. Agents do too. That's the real problem.” — Katy “Don't get stuck in a 60-day trap. Put timelines and expectations in writing from the beginning.” — Alissa “If your buyer can't sleep, you've got a problem. Help them make an educated decision, not an emotional one.” — Katy Products, People & Previous Episodes Mentioned: Episode 218: Real Estate Contingencies Explained Episode 65: Buying and Selling at the Same Time Email Templates 101: https://emailtemplates101.com Agent Systems 101: https://agentsystems101.com Want to toast someone on the show?

Welcome to Go Gaddis Real Estate Radio. I'm Cleve Gaddis—here to make real estate clear, simple, and worry-free. In this episode, we're continuing our deep dive into the Georgia Association of REALTORS® (GAR) Purchase & Sale Agreement, one of the most important documents in any home transaction. Whether you're buying or selling, understanding what happens after the offer is accepted can save you from costly mistakes. We'll cover: What the due diligence period is and what buyers can (and can't) do during it. How inspection rights, repair requests, and contract termination work under the GAR agreement. What appraisal contingencies are—and how they protect both buyers and sellers. The other key contingencies you should know before closing. How the financing contingency works and what happens if a buyer can't secure a loan. The special protections built in for cash buyers and those using VA, FHA, or USDA loans. Plus, I'll share details about our Upside program, which helps buyers and sellers navigate every market with total confidence. Have a question or want to share feedback?

Welcome to this explosive, fact-finding edition of Light ‘Em Up!We're very pleased you decided to join us!With the nation abuzz with the shooting of Charlie Kirk — his shooting recalls a disturbing pattern: Even the champions of “pro-gun” politics are not immune to America's epidemic of gun violence.We've been flooded with requests from our clients to address in-depth Special Event Contingency Planning for Public Safety Agencies — and that's exactly what we are going to do.In an era where public discourse is increasingly polarized and high-profile events carry heightened risk; the shooting of Charlie Kirk raises urgent questions about how we protect both speakers and attendees.This episode explores the intersection of Special Event Contingency Planning and political symbolism, unpacking how public safety agencies can—and must—design protocols that anticipate threats without compromising civil liberties.We examine the anatomy of a well-executed safety plan, the psychological dynamics of radicalized environments, and the strategic blind spots that can turn a rally into a crisis. Whether you're a public safety professional, a communications strategist, or simply someone concerned with the fragile balance between free speech and public harm—this conversation is for you.This episode will provide essential guidance for event planners, speakers and ticket holders/(spectators). This episode is an in-depth, thorough examination of how to keep events like Charlie Kirk's safe, for all involved.Physical Security is the focus of Rizzo's Protective Group, Ltd.As education is always a key pillar of Light ‘Em Up, by the end of this episode if we achieve our learning objectives in full, you will:Understand clearly and be able to:Define what qualifies an event as being “special” and—    Identify for your own edification and knowledge what a special event contingency planning team consists of and looks like.—   You'll be guided in conducting a hazard analysis for a special event.—   You'll hear how the incident command system (ICS) can be used in response to an incident at a special event.—   We'll give examples of special events (providing clear direction on how you must prepare for them as a provider and spectator).Mark my words, clearly, security measures are going to change and change drastically following this incident.Special Event Contingency planning involves creating a formal document with detailed procedures, responsibilities, and actions to address potential emergencies or hazards during a public gathering, such as at a festival, concert, or sporting event.A few of the main aspects, goals and strategies when conducting a thorough hazard analysis are to:—    identify risks,—    develop a response strategy,—    establish a command structure with assigned roles,—    and define communication protocols for both internal and external stakeholders, including attendees and emergency services.—    The primary goal is to prevent injury, suffering, or death by ensuring the event is safe and successful despite unforeseen circumstances.Don't move a muscle!Tune out the world and tune-in to Light ‘Em Up.  Right here and right now!You can listen to us:  on-the-go, at work, home or when resting.Remember that we are here for you and because of you!In a time of uncertainty, facts provide clarity … even if they upset you!This episode is rated “E” for EVERYONE!Tune in and follow our sponsors Newsly and Feedspot!We want to hear from you!

The White House says the public will have to look at each individual agency to find out their plans for what would happen in a government shutdown. The Office of Management and Budget's webpage which normally publishes shutdown contingency plans remained empty for months. But now, OMB says that agencies' plans will only be available one by one, on each agency's own website. Those contingency plans cover how many federal employees would continue working — with or without pay — during a possible shutdown.

Contingency Management for Stimulant Use Disorder and Association With Mortality: A Cohort Study American Journal of Psychiatry This national retrospective cohort study found that veterans with stimulant use disorder who received contingency management (CM) were 41% less likely to die in the year following treatment initiation relative to matched comparison subjects. These findings provide the strongest real-world evidence to date that CM is associated with reduced all-cause mortality, underscoring its potential as a life-saving intervention in routine care. Results support expanding access to CM across healthcare systems and public health settings.   Read this issue of the ASAM Weekly Subscribe to the ASAM Weekly Visit ASAM

During Ep. 28 of the Ask the Law Firm Seller Show, Tim McKey, CPA, CEO of Vista Consulting Team, joins to address 3 Tips for Strategic Planning to Sell a Plaintiff Contingency Law Firm   McKey initially explains that Vista Consulting Team provides strategic consulting to Plaintiff contingency law firms, assisting clients with systemizing their businesses per Vista's tagline: The business resource for Plaintiff law firms.   McKey then shares the following 3 tips for strategic planning to sell a Plaintiff contingency law firm:   Tip No. 1: As McKey says, “The best thing you can do to prepare your firm to be sellable is to be profitable.”   Underlying that tip relates to law firms knowing their numbers.   Examples of numbers to know include: (a) Gross revenues vs. Net Revenues; (b) The EBITDA for your firm; (c) Average fee per case; (d) Case acquisition costs; (e) Number of open cases, together with estimated values of those cases; and (f) Average time on desk to resolve cases, including differentiating between pre-lit. and litigation matters.   Tip No. 2: Know the value of your firm per 1 or more recognized methodologies of valuation.   Tip No. 3: Have efficient, effective, and documented operations within your firm, including (a) A methodology for internal reports that hold teams at a firm accountable; and (b) A means to make sure that a firm does not need its founder/rainmaker for the firm to operate.   McKey and Poock also discuss their thoughts about what buyers want/need when purchasing Plaintiff contingency practices, including strategic purchasers who seek to purchase more than one law firm, usually, in anticipation of a future roll-up type transaction.

In this episode of the Project Chatter podcast, hosts Val and Dale engage with Riccardo Cosentino to explore the unique aspects of the REM project in Canada, a public-private partnership (PPP) model that has garnered attention for its innovative funding and governance structure. Riccardo shares insights into the project's background, the role of the Quebec pension fund as a project sponsor, and the implications of risk management and return calculations.

Three Key Takeaways Ditch the Average Joe Mindset: To move from a 101 to a 201 hunter, avoid crowd-following habits like quitting after a busy opening weekend. Seek unpressured pockets by thinking differently—focus on areas others overlook, like low-quality habitat or remote corners, to find elk consistently. Master One Skill at a Time: Pick a specific skill (e.g., calling, stalking, or reading elk behavior) and build your hunt around mastering it. Focused practice, like night calling for silent elk or predicting movement, accelerates improvement over scattered efforts. Stay Flexible with Contingency Plans: Elk hunting is unpredictable—fires, weather, or pressure can derail plans. Always have multiple hunt plans across different ranges or low-country backups to adapt quickly and keep your season alive.

Adrian shares insights from his military background and current homesteading lifestyle, emphasizing how early morning routines create space for prayer, physical fitness, and productivity before the demands of family life take over.Food and water preparation take center stage as the pair discuss practical approaches to building security without breaking the bank. From incrementally building a three-month food supply to understanding water storage requirements beyond the bare minimum FEMA recommendations, listeners gain actionable advice they can implement immediately. Adrian's experience raising livestock and growing food provides real-world context to these discussions, offering inspiration for those looking to move beyond mere storage toward sustainable production.What sets this conversation apart is its balanced approach to security. While firearms receive thoughtful consideration, the hosts emphasize that physical self-defense skills must precede weapons training, challenging common misconceptions in the preparedness community. Their PACE (Primary, Alternate, Contingency, Emergency) communications planning framework provides families with a structured approach to staying connected during disruptions of any scale.Whether you're just beginning to think about preparedness or looking to refine your existing plans, this episode offers a refreshingly grounded, faith-compatible perspective on building family resilience in uncertain times.

On this episode of Go Gaddis Real Estate Radio, we're tackling one of the trickiest parts of real estate transactions: contingency offers. Whether you're buying or selling, these offers can completely change the dynamics of your deal — and knowing how to handle them could save you thousands. We'll break down what a contingency offer really is, why buyers use them, and why sellers sometimes accept them. From home sale contingencies to financing and appraisal clauses, I'll explain how these conditions work and what they mean for your timeline, your money, and your stress levels. You'll hear the advantages for buyers, like reducing the risk of carrying two mortgages or moving twice. But we'll also talk about the pitfalls: weaker offers in competitive markets, the dreaded “kick-out clause,” and how quickly things can fall apart if your home doesn't sell. For sellers, contingent offers can sometimes mean a higher price or highly motivated buyers — but they also come with risks like longer timelines and the uncertainty of chained deals. Most importantly, I'll share strategies to protect yourself. For buyers, that means pricing your home right, preparing it for market, and asking for realistic timelines. For sellers, it could mean requiring proof the buyer's home is listed, keeping your property on the market, and negotiating shorter contingency periods. At the end of the day, contingency offers aren't good or bad in themselves — they're tools. And like any tool, the key is knowing how to use them to your advantage. Stay tuned, because in our next segment, I'll uncover the contract clauses that may sound harmless but could cost you thousands if you're not paying attention.

Monday, 4 August 2025   that it might be fulfilled which was spoken by Isaiah the prophet, saying: Matthew  12:17   “That it should be fulfilled, the ‘having been spoken' through Isaiah the prophet, saying,” (CG).   In the previous verse, Jesus was noted as admonishing the crowds not to make Him apparent. Next, Mathew says, “That it should be fulfilled.”   As has been seen several times already, Jesus is the Subject of prophecy. Things were declared concerning Him, His coming, His work, and the effects of His work toward those He was sent to deliver.   Matthew returns to Scripture to provide more insights into the proclamation of the prophets, saying, “the ‘having been spoken' through Isaiah the prophet, saying.”   As seen above, the last verse from Matthew noted Jesus not wanting to be made openly manifest at the time. Thus, we can conclude that something Matthew will draw from Isaiah will point to that.   Life application: Radio personality Joe Rogan made the news concerning his new idea concerning God. The article said, “he feared God ‘is actually created by human beings creating this infinitely intelligent thing that can essentially harness all of the available energy and power of the universe and create anything it wants.'”   The article also cited him, saying, “This whole idea of Jesus coming back, well maybe it's real. Maybe we just completely misinterpreted these ancient scrolls and texts and what it really means is that we are going to give birth to this.”   Citing another author, the article said, “Yampolskiy, an author and researcher in AI safety, added to Rogan's theory, suggesting that reality is just an ongoing cycle of Big Bangs - the explosion that kickstarted the universe - starting and restarting life over and over again.”   It's a problem when people don't take the time to think logically. These men are discussing infinites as being created by finites. Further, where is the Creator if something created does the creating? These are problems of logic that should be contemplated from time to time.   What is known as the First Principles will help a person to think logically about God. In understanding these First Principles, we can weed out errors in our thinking. In doing so, we can more fully appreciate the prophecies recorded in the Old Testament as they point to Jesus.   Was there a Creator? Could He tell the future? If so, what does this say about the coming of the Messiah and what He would do? Think about such questions as you study the word. As for the First Principles, a quick review of them is in order –   ‎1. Being Is (B is) = The Principle of Existence To say “There is no being” is self-refuting. One must exist in order to make the claim.   Being Is Being (B is B) = The Principle of Identity To say “Being isn't being” is self-refuting. One must be a being in order to make a claim about not being a being.   Being Is Not Nonbeing (B is Not Non-B) = The Principle of Noncontradiction If being exists (see Principle #1), then it cannot be non-being. The principle is self-evident and undeniable.   Either Being or Nonbeing (Either B or Non-B) = The Principle of the Excluded Middle If I exist (asking the question means I do), then I am being. If I am being, then I am not non-being. The principle is self-evident and undeniable; there is no wiggle room.   Nonbeing Cannot Cause Being (Non-B>B) = The Principle of Causality Something cannot come from nothing (and we cannot have an infinite regress in matter (or being) – see Einstein and Relativity). The principle is undeniable.   Contingent Being Cannot Cause Contingent Being (Bc>Bc) = The Principle of Contingency (or Dependency) This would lead to an infinite regress of causes, which is disproved by Relativity – Time, Space, and Matter came into existence simultaneously and are dependent upon each other. The principle is undeniable.   Only Necessary Being Can Cause a Contingent Being (Bn --->Bc) = The Positive Principle of Modality A being that cannot Not exist must, therefore, exist if contingent beings exist. The principle is reducible to the undeniable.   Necessary Being Cannot Cause A Necessary Being (Bn>Bn) = The Negative Principle of Modality The principle is undeniable. Only one Necessary Being can exist. Any being which exists apart from a Necessary Being is contingent and could Not exist. It is self-evident.   Every Contingent Being Is Caused by a Necessary Being (Bn--->Bc) = The Principle of Existential Causality The fact that there are contingent beings (I think, therefore I am, but I am not necessary) necessitates a Necessary Being. We exist. Therefore, a Being that cannot Not exist must exist. The principle is undeniable in and of itself.   Necessary Being Exists (Bn Exists) = Principle of Existential Necessity Contingent beings exist (see next principle); therefore, a Necessary Being must exist. The principle is reducible to the undeniable.   Contingent Being Exists (Bc Exists) = Principle of Existential Contingency The principle is undeniable. To say “I (a contingent being) don't exist” is self-refuting. I do exist (Principle 1), which is self-evident.   Necessary Being Is Similar to Contingent Being(s) It Causes (Bn ---similar --->Bc) = Principle of Analogy Nothing can exist that doesn't reflect the nature of the Necessary Being. To state something doesn't is self-refuting. The principle is undeniable.   Understanding the nature of God, reality, logic, etc., is indispensable in understanding why one religion is false and another may be true. Weeding out what is false through logic leaves us with one possibility concerning God. It is the God presented in Scripture who matches what is logically necessary.   It is our duty to read Scripture and see if what is presented there is an acceptable revelation of God. As fulfilled prophecy shows that the Bible is reliable, we can trust that the message of the Bible is from God, who knows the beginning from the end.   Lord God, help us to think clearly and logically as we approach theology. May our understanding of who You are and what You have done from the Bible give us reassurance for all of our days that what You have promised will, in fact, come to pass. Thank You for Your word, this wonderful word that reveals You. Amen.

South Korea and China have a complex relationship characterized by economic interdependence, strategic competition, and regional security concerns. Navigating this delicate balance has been a defining challenge for every South Korean president. Newly elected President Lee Jae Myung has assumed power at a time of increasing US-China strategic competition as well as uncertain global supply chains and growing threat from North Korea. Could this new administration mark a shift in Seoul's approach to Beijing? Or will President Lee maintain strategies similar to that of President Yoon?To discuss ROK-China relations, and President Lee's approach to this intricate issue, we are joined on the podcast today by Dr. Ramon Pacheco-Pardo. He is a professor of international relations at King's College London and the KF-VUB Korea Chair at the Center for Security, Diplomacy and Strategy in the Brussels School of Governance.
