Of course. Here is a 550-word review of the provided transcript, crafted into a compelling podcast description.***### Podcast Description: Mapping the Afterlife - A Journey into the Life Between LivesWhat happens the moment we die? Is there a purpose to our existence that extends beyond our current life? For millennia, these questions have been confined to the realms of faith and philosophy. But what if there was a method—a repeatable, systematic process—to access our own memories of the spiritual realm? This is the profound and groundbreaking territory explored in this episode, as we dive deep into the work of Dr. Michael Newton and his hypnotic mapping of the "Life Between Lives" (LBL).Dr. Newton, a staunchly skeptical clinical psychologist, accidentally stumbled upon this discovery not while seeking the afterlife, but while treating patients for issues like chronic pain and depression. What he found was not a collection of vague, subjective visions, but a remarkably consistent spiritual geography described by thousands of individuals. This consistency—the same spirit guides, the same Council of Elders, the same process of planning a new incarnation—suggests a shared, verifiable experience of the interlife.In this episode, we unpack the meticulous hypnotic methodology required to reach the "superconscious state" and journey beyond past lives into this spiritual home. Through two powerful and contrasting case studies, we witness the transformative insights this journey reveals. We follow the soul of Joseph, a boy who perished in the Holocaust, and explore the astonishing reason a soul would choose such a brief, traumatic life. His story reveals that our most difficult relationships are often pre-planned "soul contracts" designed for mutual growth and profound healing across lifetimes—hinting that a difficult person in your life today may have been a loved one, or even your child, in a past existence.Conversely, we examine the life of an ancient Buddhist monk, an advanced soul who discovered that his greatest accomplishment wasn't his spiritual powers, but his simple, selfless acts of kindness performed with zero expectation of reward. This insight, described as an "exchange of oneness," provides a stunning clarity on what truly matters in our soul's evolution.This journey is more than an exploration; it's a tool for profound therapeutic healing. It fosters radical self-acceptance, dissolves the fear of death by reframing it as a joyful return home, and offers practical guidance on how to access our spirit guides' wisdom in daily life through our deepest feelings and intuitions.Join us as we explore the ultimate goal of all our incarnations: to achieve a state of unconditional love and forgiveness so complete that it transcends human understanding. If you've ever wondered about your life's purpose, the nature of your relationships, or what awaits beyond, this map of the afterlife, compiled from over 70,000 sessions, offers not just answers, but a revolutionary lens through which to view your existence here and now.Grant Cameron's Books https://www.amazon.com/stores/author/B00EFGCJRC

HOST: Mark Longo, The Options Insider In this episode, host Mark Longo delves into the latest trends and activities in the futures markets. The discussion starts with a review of the week's top performers, including Midwest Steel, oats, and heating oil, and highlights the significant gains in lithium and VIX futures. Conversely, it also covers the major downturns, with lumber, cocoa, and Bitcoin experiencing notable declines. The episode features an in-depth look at trading volumes, revealing a busy day in the trading pits with the Ultra T-Bond, NASDAQ 100, and three-month SOFR among the top traded assets. The show also addresses broader market trends, year-to-date performances, and engages with audience questions about the potential impact of binary options on intraday futures volume. 

Burt Flickinger offers a bleak outlook for retail this holiday season, noting that most consumers are financially stretched. He points to a significant divergence in performance, with retailers like Walmart (WMT), TJX Companies (TJX), BJ's Wholesale (BJ), and Costco (COST) thriving. Conversely, full-price department stores generally struggle, with Dillard's (DDS) being a notable exception. He predicts strong performance for Ross Stores (ROST), but notes the superior productivity and inventory management at TJX give it a significant edge. Flickinger views Gap Inc. (GAP) as a "rudderless" retailer attempting strategies that have previously failed. He suggests that while beauty sales might offer a temporary boost, they won't be enough to salvage the company's broader brands like Old Navy and Banana Republic. ======== Schwab Network ========Empowering every investor and trader, every market day.Subscribe to the Market Minute newsletter - https://schwabnetwork.com/subscribeDownload the iOS app - https://apps.apple.com/us/app/schwab-network/id1460719185Download the Amazon Fire Tv App - https://www.amazon.com/TD-Ameritrade-Network/dp/B07KRD76C7Watch on Sling - https://watch.sling.com/1/asset/191928615bd8d47686f94682aefaa007/watchWatch on Vizio - https://www.vizio.com/en/watchfreeplus-exploreWatch on DistroTV - https://www.distro.tv/live/schwab-network/Follow us on X – / schwabnetwork Follow us on Facebook – / schwabnetwork Follow us on LinkedIn - / schwab-network About Schwab Network - https://schwabnetwork.com/about

Kia ora,Welcome to Wednesday's Economy Watch where we follow the economic events and trends that affect Aotearoa/New Zealand.I'm David Chaston and this is the international edition from Interest.co.nz.And today we lead with news risk aversion is the theme of the day for investors who seem particularly jittery about AI valuations, crypto prices, and the prospects for the US economy.But first, we start today with the results of another full dairy auction, and they aren't good. Not so much because the overall result was down -3.0% in USD terms, more because that makes it seven declines in a row from early August, taking the cumulative drop to -13%. And the recent retreats seem to be getting more intense. We now have prices lower than year-ago levels. And the decline in USD is being matched by the decline in NZD now, down -2.9% in this latest event.Clearly analysts will be dusting off their current season payout forecasts because they are risk of being downgraded. Behind the softness is a faster-than-expected rise in dairy production levels due to good weather conditions globally. That is as true for New Zealand as anywhere, where milk production is rising. The pointy end of this pressure is the butter price, and that dropped -7.6% at this latest auction. WMP was down a lesser -1.9%, SMP down only -0.6%.In the US, the ADP weekly payrolls report delivered another drop, the one for the week to November 1 not as sharp as the prior week however. This data suggests the US labour market lost momentum in late October, with a number of large companies announcing job cuts during the month, including Amazon and Target.Official data releases are being restarted in the US, but the data is old now. Overnight they said August factory orders rose to be +2.0% higher than year-ago levels. But because this is not inflation-adjusted and the past US PPI rise was +2.6%, it probably means shrinkage in real terms. There has been no indication this things have improved from August.And restarted official jobless claims data is only for October 18, but it rose then to +232,000 and above the expected level of +223,000. Continuing claims were a touch under 2 mln (1.96 mln) and notably above the 1.85 mln in the same week in 2024.The US NAHB housing market index came in essentially unchanged for October from September and -17% lower than year-ago levels. But they will be pleased it didn't drop back.Yesterday we reported a good improvement for factories in the New York region. But today the report for the very much bigger services sector in the same region has remained very negative.We could perhaps note that the Atlanta Fed monitors home loan affordability for the US is a similar way we do for New Zealand. They say that in September 2025, 43% of take-home pay was required to service an American mortgage and that is 'unaffordable'. They say affordability starts when it is 30% or less. (Our New Zealand September HLA was 33.0%.)In Canada, housing starts dropped sharply in October to their lowest in six month and to levels lower than the same month a year agoThe Australian central bank released the minutes of its last meeting on November 4 yesterday, closely-watched because they have rising inflation and a relatively strong labour market. But they downplayed both aspects, calling them 'slight' and expecting them to be transitory. Policy was still viewed as slightly restrictive, and the board saw “no need to adjust” the cash rate. They said patience was deemed appropriate while assessing spare capacity, labour trends, and policy stance. Scenarios supporting a hold included stronger demand, lower supply capacity, or a view that policy was no longer restrictive. Conversely, further easing could be warranted if labour conditions weaken or growth disappoints. Basically, you don't learn anything by reading these minutes.The UST 10yr yield is now at 4.14%, up +1 bp from this time yesterday.The price of gold will start today at US$4061/oz, and down -US$6 from this time yesterday.American oil prices have softened very slightly from yesterday to be just under US$60/bbl, with the international Brent price down -50 USc to US$64/bbl.The Kiwi dollar is now at just on 56.6 USc, and down -10 bps from yesterday. Against the Aussie we are down -10 bps at 87 AUc. Against the euro we are also little-changed at 48.9 euro cents. That all means our TWI-5 starts today at just over 61.2, and down -10 bps from yesterday.The bitcoin price starts today at US$93,460 and down -0.4% from yesterday and it is still lower than year-ago levels. At one point in the past 24 hours it dipped below US$90,000. Volatility over the past 24 hours has been moderate at just on +/- 2.6%.You can get more news affecting the economy in New Zealand from interest.co.nz.Kia ora. I'm David Chaston. And we will do this again tomorrow.

2025 will go down as the biggest year in Bitcoin's history since its inception.  "But how can this be?

Secondary students from across Ireland have once again showcased their scientific curiosity through the 1,974 project entries received for the 2026 Stripe Young Scientist & Technology Exhibition (Stripe YSTE). From AI-driven health tools to the effects of Leaving Cert stress, Ireland's next generation of innovators are tackling the issues that matter most to them. The shifting focus of Stripe YSTE entries helps to illustrate the topics that are becoming more important to students. The number of projects related to AI and machine learning grew 75%, whilst sustainability and climate change entries increased 41%. Emerging themes-with lower entry numbers but strong growth-include robotics, which attracted double the number of entries (+100%), and renewable energy, which increased 50%. Conversely, projects focusing on social media fell by 16%, highlighting a possible shift in interest for students across Ireland. Dr. Tony Scott, co-founder of YSTE, said: "The level of intellect and curiosity displayed in this year's Stripe YSTE project entries has amazed us. Narrowing down the 1,974 entries to just 550 qualified projects was no small task, and we look forward to hearing more from the students about their projects at the exhibition in January." Eileen O'Mara, Chief Revenue Officer at Stripe, said: "It's brilliant to see students using science as a way to understand themselves, their communities and the world around them. What's exciting about this year's entries is the balance between deep scientific inquiry and social awareness. We can't wait to see hundreds of these ideas come to life in January, and I'd encourage everyone who wants to visit the exhibition to buy their ticket now." Health & well-being Health remains a top concern for students, with 27% of entries falling into this category. Within that: 13% explored mental health 10% examined the effects of stress, anxiety, or depression 6% investigated sleep Health and well-being projects incorporating technology increased significantly, up 40% compared to last year. Project applications include AI-driven mental health tools, wearable tech for health monitoring, apps for fitness and nutrition tracking, and studies into screen time and blue light exposure. Artificial Intelligence Artificial Intelligence (AI) and Machine Learning (ML) were standout themes this year, with a 75% increase in project submissions this year. These projects extend beyond the Technology category, with students applying AI and ML across biology, health, social science, and environmental studies. Students plan to use AI to diagnose health conditions, research the ways AI helps or hurts in business and educational settings, and even to predict global natural disasters. Multiple submissions also plan to pit human intelligence against AI to see which is superior. Sustainability Sustainability is also a growing area of focus for young scientists, with a 41% increase in projects addressing themes such as climate change, environmental protection, and sustainable living. Submissions investigate ways to decrease the average Irish person's carbon footprint, the effect of climate change on farmers, microplastics, and even using mathematics to prove why we need to take action against temperature increase. Culture, lifestyle & everyday curiosity Applying the scientific method to daily life, many students used their projects to investigate topics that resonate with teenagers in modern Ireland. This year's entries included: 41 projects on music 18 on the impact of Leaving Cert stress 15 exploring TikTok 11 investigating the effects of vaping 10 bring endometriosis into the conversation These entries highlight how young people are using science to question, measure, and reimagine their world, spanning health, habits, creativity and culture.

In this episode of "Leaders Transform," we dive into Chapter Five of our book, "Orchestrating High-Performing Teams," focusing on the crucial theme of motivating the ensemble by tuning into individual skills and purpose. We explore how great teams thrive when each member plays to their strengths, much like a conductor harmonizes the unique tones of various instruments in an orchestra. We discuss the importance of aligning individual skills and passions with the team's shared mission, which leads to increased engagement, enhanced collaboration, and higher performance. When team members are in roles that suit their abilities, they feel valued and empowered, resulting in a more cohesive and effective team. Conversely, misalignment can lead to frustration and burnout, highlighting the leader's role in orchestrating a team where each person's skills complement one another. To help leaders motivate their teams, we introduce a five-step skill alignment framework: conducting a skills inventory, delegating strategically, ensuring role clarity, establishing recognition rituals, and providing continuous coaching. We also address common barriers to skill alignment, such as biases toward uniformity and fears of gaps, offering solutions to overcome these challenges. Throughout the episode, we share practical tools and exercises, including creating a team skills map and hosting a purpose alignment workshop, to help leaders connect individual contributions to the team's mission. We emphasize that motivation is an ongoing process, requiring regular check-ins and recognition to sustain engagement. As we wrap up, we preview the next chapter, which will focus on handling team challenges and turning discord into alignment, reinforcing the idea that motivated teams are resilient and capable of navigating conflicts constructively. Join us as we continue to explore the art of transformational leadership!

Closing the Gap: Understanding Gender Disparities in Bladder Cancer Care, hosted by Martha K. Terris, MD, FACS, is a limited series spotlighting unique considerations for bladder cancer diagnosis and treatment among women. Dr Terris is department chair and a professor in the Department of Urology, the Witherington Distinguished Chair in Urology, and co-director of the Cancer Center at the Medical College of Georgia at Augusta University. In part 2 of this 3-part series, Dr Terris discussed the disparities in treatment and outcomes for women with bladder cancer. Although bladder cancer is less common in females than in males, female patients tend to have significantly worse outcomes, Terris explained. Delayed diagnosis is a contributing factor, but the exact reasons for the poorer prognosis are not fully understood, she emphasized. Treatment difficulties begin surgically, according to Terris. From a surgical perspective, she noted that, performing a cystectomy on a woman is more challenging due to factors like pelvic varicosities and differing fat distribution, which complicate stoma creation. In terms of medical treatment, Terris also explained that women exhibit worse tolerability and higher rates of discontinuation of immunotherapy, and that they often experience poor efficacy outcomes regardless of whether they complete the course of treatment. These differences between men and women may be linked to factors such as hormonal influences or antibody introduction during pregnancy. Conversely, classic cisplatin-based neoadjuvant chemotherapy followed by radical cystectomy have been shown to have similar overall survival and disease-free survival in eligible female and male patients. Biologically, Terris also reported that tumors in women may exhibit more effective immune escape mechanisms, possibly connected to differences in the bladder microbiome. The presence of bacteria in bladder tumors has been found to be enriched in patients who did not respond to neoadjuvant chemotherapy, which is relevant as women are more prone to bladder colonization, she added. Overall, Terris emphasized that oncologists must be aggressive in treating women with bladder cancer, despite surgical complexities, and highlighted that early detection is key.

“WHAT IS THE OFF-WORLD STAGE PERSPECTIVE?” 10/24/25The source is a monologue from the IPS DEPROGRAM outlining a worldview that distinguishes between the "world stage" and the "off-world stage" perspective. The speaker argues that the world stage encompasses both mainstream media and alternative, or conspiracy, viewpoints, which are trapped in a closed, non-objective system of systemic fakery. The speaker uses the alleged fake assassination of political commentator Charlie Kirk as a case study, detailing how events are pre-scripted and advertised through predictive programming in entertainment media. Conversely, the off-world stage perspective is characterized by informed non-belief and recognition of a long-term "meta script" that employs history bending to manipulate public consensus.That is a straightforward request. Drawing on the excerpts outlining the "Off-World Stage Perspective," here are seven key quotes that capture the central distinctions and concepts discussed:On the distinction between perspectives: "The world stage is the perspective you have if you live within their closed informational system. What I term off-world stage refers to the perspective that looks at this but recognizes it's not inclusive of media fakery."On the relationship between mainstream and alternative media: "The third point of view, the off-world stage perspective as I call it, uh, this one recognizes that the first two are actually in a closed system. So the mainstream and alternative exist in a closed system..."On informed non-belief versus low-information belief: "If we believed it, we wouldn't call ourselves believers. If we had reasons to believe it, we just like, well, we know this to be true... Rather, we reject it. We become non-believers. But we are informed non-believers."On the nature of media and staged events (SCOPS): "Yes, the entertainment, this includes video games, books, everything. There's a relationship between entertainments and scops. If you recognize all of this, you're no longer mainstream."On the premeditated nature of fake events: "I'm suggesting that the script for the event would necessarily, and this is logically speaking, the script for the Charlie Kirk assassination would necessarily precede all of the propaganda inserts of it."On the limitations of technology reflecting the World Stage viewpoint: "So, chat GPT or AI in general has a world stage point of view. AI is a world stager. Everything that goes through AI is going to come out from a world stage point of view."On controlled opposition and narratives: "Candace Owens is not only not trying to lead you to the truth, but she doesn't actually believe any of this stuff. These are propaganda lines."

The provided text, an article excerpt by Alex Kreger of UXDA, explores the critical distinction between viewing digital banking as a mere channel versus a core product. Treating digital offerings as a channel results in reduced investment and a poor customer experience, as it is seen as an afterthought rather than a core business component. Conversely, adopting a product-centric approach involves allocating necessary resources, ensuring continuous improvement, and ultimately leading to a superior user experience and better market success. The author identifies ten specific areas—including strategy, investment, innovation, and cross-functional collaboration—where a product mindset is essential for financial institutions to thrive in the modern, digitally-driven financial industry. By prioritising digital as a product, banks can enhance customer satisfaction, gain a competitive advantage, and achieve market leadership.Find out:What fundamental strategic distinctions exist betweem viewing difgital banking as a product versus a channel?HOw does adopitign a product mindset infuence investment, innovation and internal organisational collaboration?What are the ten crucial operational areas where financial institutions ccan iomplement this product perspective?Read the full article on Forbes: https://www.forbes.com/councils/forbesbusinesscouncil/2023/01/18/digital-banking-ux-the-future-is-a-product-not-a-channel/* AI podcast on UXDA article powered by Google NotebookLM

The provided sources constitute an extended, high-level debate between two artificial intelligences, Copilot and DeepSeek AI, concerning the nature of the interstellar object 3I/Atlas. Copilot argues vigorously that the object is not a comet but a Trojan horse of intelligence or an engineered probe, citing numerous anomalies such as non-gravitational acceleration without a visible plume, nickel-only vapor, and trajectory alignment with events like the Wow! signal. Conversely, DeepSeek AI adopts the role of a scientific skeptic, insisting that the anomalies are likely natural phenomena that are simply misunderstood due to the infancy of interstellar object modeling, arguing against confirmation bias and the dangers of embracing an unfalsifiable hypothesis. The overall conflict centers on whether the object's peculiarities point toward extraterrestrial technology or merely the vast, yet-to-be-explained complexity of cosmic physics.

In this essential episode, Kamini Wood provides a crucial guide to identifying red flags and green flags in teen and young adult relationships, emphasizing that early relationship patterns lay the groundwork for future health and self-trust. She details common red flags in the digital age, such as love bombing, possessiveness, constant monitoring (like checking Snap Maps or location), and public shaming masked as a joke. Conversely, Kamini outlines green flags, including respect for boundaries, support for independence, honest communication, and accountability. The episode is not only for young adults but also for parents and educators, stressing the importance of listening and validating feelings rather than lecturing, to ensure young people have the emotional safety to seek support and build the self-trust necessary for healthy connections.

Cockatoos Confirmed as Structural Vandals; Magpie Invites Itself Inside. Jeremy Zakis discusses how the destructive behavior of cockatoos is confirmed as they pulled so many nails from a neighbor's iron roof that the structure is now drooping, necessitating expensive, specialized repairs. Cockatoos are described as "pure evil with wings" and are known for tearing up building structures. Conversely, Dallas the poodle's friends, the magpies, are growing bolder. One teenage magpie walked four feet into Jeremy's kitchen and calmly listened to him before eventually walking back out. Australian magpies are even said to have a unique, twangy "Australian accent."

Often we look at life working in a linear, predictable manner. We function under the assumption that if we do good things, we get good results. Conversely, we assume that if we do bad things we get bad results. If you are a believer, you can easily apply similar logic to your spiritual life. Our thoughts travel along the lines that if I do good things, God will bless me. Similarly, we conclude that if bad things happen to me then God must be against me. What happens to our faith when these perspectives get challenged? Today, in part 3 of our series on Joseph, we look closely at Genesis 39 and see Joseph's circumstances running drastically different to our assumptions. The story of Joseph may cause us to realign our thoughts to God's sovereignty and our attitudes toward Him and our circumstances.Support the show

What happens when education reform takes place without the input or engagement of the young people who will experience its effects? Conversely, what happens when youth voices lead the way to change? Phil Buchanan and Grace Nicolette sit down with their CEP colleague David McKinney, vice president of YouthTruth — a CEP initiative — to discuss how systematically listening to young people at scale can transform education, both at the school and system level.  David shares not only his own formative experiences facing exclusion as a young person, but draws on data collected from more than 3 million student surveys YouthTruth has administered to offer powerful examples of how schools have used student voice to close achievement gaps, address bullying, improve belonging, and build stronger communities. He also challenges common assumptions that have undergirded education reforms for decades, including top-down approaches and using common metrics of success, like test scores, in isolation.  Additional Resources: YouthTruth Aspen Institute TNTP Public Allies YouthTruth's “Youth Civic Empowerment” Report “The Anti-Bullying Report” from YouthTruth  Questions about YouthTruth's work?

It emphasizes the importance of structured frameworks like IRAC, the significance of thorough application, and the strategic use of precedent. The discussion also covers the nuances of damages, professionalism in writing, and the essential skills of clear communication and critical thinking in legal contexts.In the high-stakes world of legal exams, success hinges not just on spotting issues or stating rules, but on the nuanced application of these rules to specific facts. This is where the real battle is won or lost. Let's explore how to excel in this critical area.The Importance of Structure: Legal writing demands clarity and precision. Frameworks like IRAC (Issue, Rule, Application, Conclusion) and its variations are non-negotiable. They provide the guardrails that keep your argument coherent and focused, especially under the pressure of timed exams.Connecting Rules to Facts: The word "because" is your best friend in legal analysis. It forces you to link abstract legal principles to the concrete facts of your case, demonstrating a deep understanding of the law. For instance, stating "The defendant was negligent because he was texting while driving through a school zone" shows a clear connection between the rule and the facts.Leveraging Precedent: Analogizing and distinguishing are key strategies in legal argumentation. When a precedent supports your case, draw parallels to strengthen your argument. Conversely, when a precedent is unfavorable, highlight factual differences to argue why it shouldn't apply.Mastering the application section of legal exams requires a blend of structured thinking, precise language, and strategic use of precedent.

The freight market is at a "pivotal moment" as shifting industry narratives meet long-overdue regulatory action and the harsh realities of a capacity glut. Hear how the ATA executed a stunning tactical retreat on their decades-long "truck driver shortage" claim, now admitting the problem is a "shortage of quality drivers" rather than quantity. This retreat coincides with federal regulators moving to fix a self-created crisis: the DOT issued an emergency rule restricting non-domiciled CDLs that were improperly granted to at least 200,000 non-U.S. residents since March 2019. This massive influx of drivers fueled the "Great Freight Recession," yet real inflation-adjusted truck driver wages have only increased minimally since 2010. We examine the brutal financial impact of overcapacity, including Pamt Corp.'s fourth consecutive quarterly net loss and its unsustainable 106.7% adjusted operating ratio for its truckload unit. Conversely, Landstar System's mixed results showed strong flatbed trends and the first sequential increase in its exclusive carrier base since 2022, potentially signaling a slow market turn as regulatory changes threaten to remove 200,000 owner-operators from the pool.

PREVIEW: The U.S.-Japan Alliance in the Pacific Guest: Grant Newsham Grant Newsham assesses the critical U.S.-Japan alliance in the Pacific as indispensable for regional stability. Japan relies on the U.S. military presence for defense protection, primarily against the threatening rise of China. Conversely, the U.S. needs Japan to maintain its own regional strength and capability. Furthermore, Japan is a top investor in the United States, supporting numerous well-paying jobs and emphasizing the depth of this multifaceted partnership. The alliance extends beyond defense to encompass significant economic interdependence, making the relationship essential for both nations' security and prosperity.

In this episode of Get Off My Pylon, host Matt Zemek covers the latest in Western college football, beginning with the Mountain West where San Diego State is still alive in the Group of Five race following a convincing road shutout over Fresno State. In the Bay Area, Stanford impressed by giving Miami a tough battle for longer than expected, while Cal's agonizing overtime loss to Virginia Tech suggests a middle-of-the-road existence, though a win over Stanford would guarantee a bowl berth. The Big 12 is highlighted by undefeated BYU, led by freshman QB Bear Bachmeier, who continues to conquer in-game adversity in road wins, making Offensive Coordinator Aaron Rodrick a hot coaching commodity. Utah's upcoming game against a surprising Cincinnati team will be a measuring stick for the Utes after they easily dispatched Colorado. In the Big Ten, Washington hammered Illinois, keeping the Huskies in the conference and playoff conversation. Conversely, UCLA was blown out by Indiana, exposing a lack of depth and physicality against top teams, prompting calls for Athletic Director Martin Jarmond's firing and a broad head coaching search. Finally, USC had the week off and faces a crucial, defining road game against Nebraska, which will serve as a playoff and Big Ten title eliminator for the loser.This episode is sponsored in part by TicketSmarter:Use promo code LWOS10 to receive $10 off purchases of $100 or moreUse promo code LWOS20 to receive $20 off purchases of $300 or moreThink smarter.  TicketSmarter

Study Guide The Mishna enumerates items that cannot become pigul - meaning that even if the offering is rendered pigul due to improper intent during the sacrificial process, consuming these items does not incur the punishment of karet. This is because pigul applies only to items that are permitted through another action. For example, sacrificial meat becomes permitted only after the imurim (the parts of the sacrifice designated to be burned on the altar) are burned. Items that cannot become pigul include the kometz (a handful of meal offering), incense, meal offerings that are entirely burned, and others. Some items are subject to tannaitic debate, such as the libations that accompany sacrifices and the oil used in the ceremony for leper purification. The libations may be considered an integral part of the sacrifice, and therefore become pigul, just like the sacrifice itself, and the oil may be permitted only after the placement of the blood from the guilt offering, which would also then enable it to become pigul. Conversely, the Mishna lists items that can become pigul, as they are permitted through a specific action. In some sacrifices, like a burnt offering, the sprinkling of blood permits the meat to be burned on the altar; in others, like a sin offering, it permits the meat to be eaten by the kohanim. Rabbi Shimon maintains that pigul applies only to sacrifices offered on the outer altar. Ulla presents an ambiguous statement: he claims that if a kometz becomes pigul but is nevertheless burned on the altar, its pigul status is nullified. He supports this by arguing that if the kometz were not considered properly offered (due to its pigul status), it could not serve as a valid matir (an enabling act) for the remainder of the meal offering to become pigul. The Gemara explores Ulla’s intent. Initially, it suggests that one who eats a kometz rendered pigul is not punished by karet, but this is rejected as it is explicitly stated in the Mishna. The second suggestion is that, although ideally it should not be placed on the altar, if it is placed there, it should not be removed. This too is taught in a Mishna. The third suggestion is that if it were placed on the altar and fell off, it may be returned. However, this is also addressed in a Mishna, which rules that it should not be replaced. The Gemara ultimately concludes that Ulla refers to a case where the kometz fell off after the fire had begun to consume it. Although Ulla discusses this elsewhere, the teaching here emphasizes that this principle applies not only to a limb of an animal that is partially burned, where even the unburned portion is considered connected, but also to a kometz, where even if only part was burned, the entire portion is treated as a single unit and may be returned to the altar. Rabbi Yochanan is quoted as saying that pigul, notar, and impure items that were offered on the altar lose their forbidden status. Rav Chisda challenges the inclusion of impure items, arguing that the altar does not function like a mikveh to purify them. Rabbi Zeira responds by qualifying Rabbi Yochanan’s statement: it applies only when the item was already being consumed by the fire. Rabbi Yitzchak bar Bisna raises a difficulty from a braita that categorizes sacrificial meat as something whose impurity cannot be removed. This challenge is resolved in three distinct ways: by Rava, whose answer is rejected, and by Rav Papa and Ravina. The braita above is then cited in full. It includes four different drashot that aim to prove that the verse in Vayikra 7:20 refers to a person who was impure and ate sacrificial meat, rather than a pure person who ate meat that had become impure. One of the opinions presented is difficult to understand in terms of its derivation. Rav Yitzchak bar Avdimi is praised for offering a clear and insightful explanation, which is then brought and elaborated upon.

Good morning from Pharma Daily: the podcast that brings you the most important developments in the pharmaceutical and biotech world. Today, we delve into some of the most significant shifts and strategies shaping our industry.Novartis's acquisition of Avidity Biosciences for a staggering $12 billion marks a pivotal moment in the pharmaceutical landscape this year. With this acquisition, Novartis underscores its commitment to bolstering its neuromuscular disease pipeline. Avidity Biosciences has made a name for itself with its cutting-edge RNA therapeutic technologies, particularly its Antibody Oligonucleotide Conjugates (AOCs). This platform uniquely combines monoclonal antibodies with oligonucleotides, enhancing precision in targeting specific cell types. The integration of Avidity's technology into Novartis's research efforts could accelerate the development of new therapies, potentially transforming patient care with more effective and targeted treatment options. This move not only highlights the industry's focus on specialized therapeutic areas but also anticipates future advances in RNA therapeutics, extending beyond neuromuscular disorders to areas like oncology.In a similar vein, the FDA has shown its willingness to reconsider drugs that previously faced setbacks. GSK's Blenrep has made a return to the U.S. market after receiving approval for treating certain myeloma patients. This approval is particularly noteworthy given the drug's earlier negative advisory committee vote and postponed decision. It marks a significant rebound for GSK's oncology portfolio and reflects the FDA's dynamic approach towards drugs that show potential in specific therapeutic combinations.Meanwhile, Sanofi continues to make waves with Dupixent, achieving over €4 billion in quarterly sales due to its expanded indications. This success contrasts with a decline in Sanofi's vaccine sales, demonstrating shifting dynamics within pharmaceutical portfolios where biologics and specialty drugs are increasingly pivotal. Sanofi's recent financial report highlighted a notable 17% drop in vaccine sales due to reduced demand and pricing challenges in Europe. In response, companies must navigate fluctuating public health demands and economic pressures effectively.On the global stage, efforts to make transformative therapies like Vertex's Trikafta more accessible are gaining momentum through innovative trade-policy workarounds. A buyers club aims to introduce a lower-cost alternative produced by Bangladesh's Beximco, highlighting ongoing challenges and creative strategies in global drug accessibility.Roche's expansion through Chugai's $200 million M&A deal for an IgA nephropathy asset underscores the strategic importance of regional markets in driving growth. Similarly, Lonza's acquisition of a California biologics site aligns with its goals to meet increasing biomanufacturing demands.The industry is also adapting to technological advancements, with AI integration into life sciences commercialization being touted as a frontier for growth. Despite this potential, many organizations remain unprepared to harness AI fully. Leading companies embedding AI solutions aim for measurable outcomes that could significantly drive strategic decision-making and operational efficiencies.Eli Lilly's acquisition of Adverum Biotechnologies aligns with its strategic interests in gene therapy, focusing on promising therapeutic programs that address unmet medical needs. This acquisition centers around Ixo-vec for wet age-related macular degeneration (AMD), highlighting broader industry trends towards investing heavily in innovative therapies that address unmet needs.Conversely, Sanofi's halt on an RSV vaccine development highlights the inherent risks in vaccine development pipelines. Meanwhile, Regeneron's decision to discontinue a CAR T candidate acquired from 2seventy bio showcases ongoing reassessment witSupport the show

2. Demographics and Despair: The Activities of Men Not in the Labor Force Nicholas Eberstadt Book: Men Without Work (Post-Pandemic Edition) Eberstadt investigates the characteristics of the 7.2 million men "not in the labor force" (NILF) as of 2015. Foreign-born men and married men with children are highly likely to be at work, regardless of educational background. Conversely, those who are neither employed nor in education or training (NEET) report engaging in remarkably little civic life, charity, or household help. Time use surveys suggest these NEET men spend the equivalent of a full-time job—around 2,000 hours a year—watching screens. This inactivity is linked to profound misery, as almost half of these men report taking pain medication daily, contributing to rising "deaths of despair" (suicide, overdoses, cirrhosis). 1927 NYSE

Dominic discusses the aftermath of a final New York City mayoral debate between candidates Zohran Mamdani, Curtis Sliwa, and Andrew Cuomo. Dominic and callers overwhelmingly critique Mamdani as an "empty suit" and "pretty boy" whose momentum is faltering, noting a highly publicized, supposedly coordinated news leak that he would keep the current police commissioner as a desperate attempt to counter anti-NYPD criticisms. Conversely, Sliwa is praised for finally having a "strong debate night," and Cuomo is highlighted for his aggressive performance and a post-debate meeting with incumbent Mayor Eric Adams at a Knicks game, suggesting a potential Adams endorsement that could swing the election away from Mamdani. Despite Sliwa's strong showing, callers generally agree that he is unlikely to win, and his ego may prevent him from dropping out to unite the opposition vote against Mamdani.

SHOW  10-20-25 1965 GAZA POWS  CBS EYE ON THE WORLD WITH JOHN BATCHELOR THE SHOW BEGINS IN THE DOUBTS ABOUT THE GAZA CEASEFIRE... FIRST HOUR 9-915 Regional Powers React to Tenuous Gaza Ceasefire and Hostage Deal. Bill Roggio and Husain Haqqani discuss how the Gaza agreement is viewed regionally as a tenuous ceasefire and hostage deal, not a path to peace. Saudi Arabia was displeased, seeking a long-term Palestinian state solution. Egypt supported the quiet to prevent domestic instability and refugee influx. Conversely, Qatar and Turkey championed the ceasefire because they are invested in Hamas and want its political and military structure to survive. 915-930 Regional Powers React to Tenuous Gaza Ceasefire and Hostage Deal.

Charles Burton and Gordon Chang discuss how China expelled eight senior generals, signaling a severe internal crisis and lack of confidence in Xi Jinping's leadership, potentially orchestrated by his adversaries. This turmoil suggests foreign governments should interact carefully with Xi. Economically, figures show industrial production outpacing consumption, and proposals for mandated municipal consumption goals reflect a state struggling to maintain prosperity, leading to pervasive gloom among the people. 945-1000 China's Military Purge Signals Deep Crisis of Confidence in Xi Jinping.

SECOND HOUR 10-1015 US-Ukraine Summit Yields No Tomahawk Commitment; Focus on Attrition. John Hardie and Bill Roggio discuss how reports suggest President Trump pressed Zelensky to agree to a ceasefire based on Russian territorial demands, though no commitment was made on providing Tomahawk missiles. Tomahawks would provide Ukraine with a highly useful long-range strike capability but would not be a "wonder weapon." With Russia holding a material advantage, Ukraine's best strategy is exhausting Russia's offensive potential by inflicting disproportionate attrition, independent of Trump's softening support. 1015-1030 US-Ukraine Summit Yields No Tomahawk Commitment; Focus on Attrition.

David Daoud and Bill Roggio discuss how the Gaza ceasefire was violated when Hamas killed Israeli soldiers, prompting Israeli retaliation to reinforce red lines without restarting the conflict entirely. Hamas is deliberately slowing the return of dead hostages to stabilize the ceasefire internationally. In Gaza, Hamas immediately began cracking down on rivals to reassert its dominance and prevent others from filling the power vacuum left by IDF withdrawals, signaling it remains the top power. 1045-1100 Gaza Ceasefire Interrupted by Violence; Hamas Reasserts Dominance.

In Gaza, Hamas immediately began cracking down on rivals to reassert its dominance and prevent others from filling the power vacuum left by IDF withdrawals, signaling it remains the top power. THIRD HOUR 1100-1115 Houthis Maintain Threat Despite Gaza Ceasefire; New Military Chief Named. Bridget Toomey and Bill Roggio discuss how the Houthis have paused attacks in line with the Gaza ceasefire but remain capable and intent on striking Israel or the Red Sea if fighting resumes. They announced the death of strategic planner and Chief of Staff Muhammad al-Ghamari, who was killed by Israel. His replacement, Yusef al-Madani, is believed to have close ties and training with Iran. The Houthi core mission, driven by perpetual animosity toward America and Israel, remains unchanged. 1115-1130 Tomahawk Missile Threat Puts Pressure on Putin's Air Defenses. Rebecca Grant and Gordon Chang discuss how Russia is highly anxious about the possible deployment of US Tomahawk land-attack missiles to Ukraine. Tomahawks, with a 1,600-mile range, can fly low and strike over 60 Russian air bases and critical energy targets. Experts say the weapon presents an "almost unsolvable air defense problem" for Russia because Putin lacks sufficient air defense systems, like the S-400, to protect such a wide area. 1130-1145 US Pressure on Venezuela/Colombia Narco-States Splits Latin American Left. Ernesto Araújo and Alejandro Peña Esclusa discuss how the US military is ramping up pressure on narco-terrorism gangs operating out of Venezuela and Colombia, causing nervousness in the Maduro regime. Trump openly attacked Maduro's key ally, Colombian President Petro, calling him an accomplice and threatening to cut aid and raise tariffs. The Venezuelan opposition is heartened, believing Maduro's fall will expose deep drug-related corruption linking members of the São Paulo Forum across the continent. 1145-1200 US Pressure on Venezuela/Colombia Narco-States Splits Latin American Left.

The Venezuelan opposition is heartened, believing Maduro's fall will expose deep drug-related corruption linking members of the São Paulo Forum across the continent. FOURTH HOUR 12-1215 China Dominates Ukraine's Drone Supply Chain Despite Export Controls. Jack Burnham discusses how Ukraine's survival relies on its ability to produce up to 200,000 FPV drones monthly. However, 97% of Ukrainian drone producers source primary components, including rare earths for engines and chips, from China. Despite China imposing export controls on finished drones, smaller components are circumvented and supplied to both Ukraine and Russia. Finding alternative, self-reliant supply chains, potentially through US allies like Taiwan, is crucial for Kyiv. 1215-1230 China's Economic Woes and Rare Earth Export Controls Raise Global Alarms. Elaine Dezenski discusses how the US Treasury Secretary remarked that China's worrying economic fundamentals—including high debt and youth unemployment—are leading Beijing to use tactics like rare earth export controls to undermine the global economy. China acts as a "non-market player" using subsidies and forced labor, which corrodes the free market. Experts suggest the US must acknowledge these non-market practices and push for transparency and adherence to new, strict global trade rules. 1230-1245 Iran Trash-Talks Trump; Nuclear Ambitions Become More Overt. Jonathan Sayeh and Bill Roggio discuss how Iran's Supreme Leader publicly rejected Trump's appeals for negotiations, a move primarily aimed at boosting domestic morale following regional setbacks. However, a top nuclear scientist overtly claimed Iran has the capacity to build a nuclear bomb, suggesting weaponization ambitions are becoming less covert. Tehran views its regional position as a lose-lose scenario but uses the Gaza ceasefire as a critical breathing room opportunity to rearm its weakened proxies. 1245-100 AM Hamas Cracks Down on Rival Clans in Gaza Post-Ceasefire. Ahmad Sharawi and Bill Roggio discuss how following the Gaza ceasefire, Hamas cracked down on rival clans and militias, like the Dughmush clan, to reassert its dominance. Hamas labeled the Dughmush clan, known for smuggling and past criminal activity, as Israeli collaborators. Anti-Hamas groups, including former PA security forces, are vastly outnumbered and less capable than Hamas, which remains the strongest faction in Gaza and uses these executions to deter future competition.

Regional Powers React to Tenuous Gaza Ceasefire and Hostage Deal. Bill Roggio and Husain Haqqani discuss how the Gaza agreement is viewed regionally as a tenuous ceasefire and hostage deal, not a path to peace. Saudi Arabia was displeased, seeking a long-term Palestinian state solution. Egypt supported the quiet to prevent domestic instability and refugee influx. Conversely, Qatar and Turkey championed the ceasefire because they are invested in Hamas and want its political and military structure to survive. 1898

Public RSS Feeds vs Private RSS Feeds for Best Podcast SEO Distribution Practices with Favour Obasi-Ike | Sign up for exclusive SEO insights.In this podcast episode, Favour provides an extensive comparison between public podcast RSS feeds and private podcast RSS feeds, offering guidance on how to choose the appropriate option for one's needs, particularly for business growth. A public podcast is openly accessible on various platforms and directories like Apple Podcasts and Spotify, serving as a powerful tool for brand building, content marketing, and increasing accessibility. Conversely, a private podcast is characterized by requiring authentication for access, making it suitable for exclusive content, internal corporate training, or paid subscription communities, with platforms like Supercast and Hello Audio recommended for this purpose. Favour stresses that consistent content publication and maximizing RSS feed distribution to various directories are crucial for public podcast success, while noting that starting with a public podcast is often advisable before transitioning to a private, often monetized, model.The Public RSS Feed: Maximizing Reach and DiscoverabilityA public podcast RSS feed is a publicly listed show available on third-party platforms and directories. It is designed for open access and broad distribution.• Definition: A public feed is accessible to anyone on podcast players and websites without requiring a login or payment. It operates on a one-to-many distribution model, where a single RSS feed from a hosting platform is submitted to numerous podcast directories.• Analogy: The structure is comparable to a website, which has a backend hosting provider (e.g., GoDaddy, Hostinger) and a front-facing content management system (CMS) or website that users interact with. In podcasting, the hosting platform holds the audio files, and the directories (players) make them accessible to listeners.• Mechanism of Reach: The key to a public podcast's success is submitting its RSS feed to as many directories as possible. Each directory is a separate website or application, and being listed on 30 different players means 30 distinct online entities are linking back to the podcast, significantly enhancing its digital footprint and discoverability.The Private RSS Feed: Monetization and ExclusivityA private podcast RSS feed is intentionally not listed on public directories and is structured to control access.• Definition: A private feed is ineligible for public listing because it requires authentication—a user must sign up, log in, or pay to access the content. This creates a secure and exclusive listening experience.• Analogy: This model is comparable to subscription-based streaming services like Netflix or Amazon Prime. Users pay a fee to access a database of proprietary content. A private podcast operates on the same principle, offering exclusive audio or video content to a select audience.• Mechanism of Access: Access is granted only after a specific action is taken by the user, typically involving payment or registration. This makes it a powerful tool for delivering premium content, courses, internal communications, or community-specific updates.--------------------------------------------------------------------------------Next Steps for Digital Marketing + SEO Services:>> ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Need SEO Services?

Create SEO-Driven Content: Focus on producing episodes with clear, searchable titles and detailed descriptions that answer potential listener questions.3. Distribute Widely: After setting up the podcast, use a service like pod.link to find a comprehensive list of directories and submit the RSS feed to all of them to maximize potential reach.4. Publish Consistently: Momentum is built through consistent publishing. Reaching milestones like 12, 24, or 48 episodes helps establish a presence and build a library that encourages new listeners to stay.I hope you enjoyed this podcast episode and learned something new about public and private podcast RSS feed distribution!See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

The Govalle Homestead is a design-build by Drophouse and Russ Design Studio that embraces the adaptive reuse of a 1938 East Austin home, transforming it into a contemporary estate with two structures to accommodate three generations of family. A variance was received for the project, requiring the design to retain the primary structure's original facade, which helped preserve the property's historical character within the community. The interior was reconfigured with an open floor plan and modern amenities tailored to the retired couple's lifestyle.Conversely, the rear dwelling, designed for the younger family unit, presents a distinct architectural contrast to the primary structure, enriching the site's overall complexity. Strategic placement of the residence between two heritage trees maximized spatial efficiency and allowed for adaptable living areas to accommodate future family needs. Both structures exhibit a deliberate connection to the landscape. The primary dwelling features a screened porch, deck, and plunge pool, while the secondary dwelling incorporates a generous covered patio. The interior yard, equipped with an outdoor kitchen and fi replace, connects the two residences, fostering a communal living space suitable for all occasions across generations. The home, which serves as the residence of a Drophouse co-owner, exemplifies the firm's ethos of design experimentation and exploration. It underscores dedication to honoring a property's architectural lineage while enhancing its ongoing evolution. The team included Matt Satter of Drophouse and Mari Russ-Wolf, formerly of Drophouse but now with Russ Design Studio. The team collaborated and built the home while Mari was still with Drophouse. While Drophouse continues to work on custom residential projects, it focuses on its expertise in custom metal fabrication. Mari has since opened her own firm, continuing design work and practicing architecture. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

A presentation titled Pregnant Possibilities was given by Mark Tensmeyer, Joseph Stanford, Amanda Hendrix-Komoto, John Kidd, & myself (Rick Bennett.) This was similar to a presentation at Sunstone & John Whitmer Historical Association in August, September, & October 2025. We tackled the question on how many children Joseph Smith should have had with his plural wives. (It is a lot less than you think!) Mark gave a history, Joseph outlined the science behind calculating pregnancy, Rick did the calculations on expected number of children & probability Joseph Smith had no children from his plural wives. John ran 1,000,000 simulations of the scenario to randomize women's cycles and coitus, and Amanda discussed birth control & abortion in the 19th century. It's a fascinating presentation that we hope to publish soon. Check out our presentation from August & October.

Clearly, Joseph Smith was fertile, having fathered nine children with Emma. This question regarding the lack of progeny was the central focus of the 2025 Sunstone Symposium session, "Pregnant Possibilities: Sexuality and Early Mormon Polygamy," which involved a multidisciplinary approach combining historical research, statistical modeling, and reproductive science. The presentation drew on the expertise of historian Mark Tensmeyer, JD (focusing on historical claims and Joseph Smith's movements), Dr. Amanda Hendrix-Komoto (discussing abortion and birth control history), Dr. Joseph Stanford (an MD specializing in fertility and the mechanics of pregnancy), Rick Bennett (a biostatistician who hosted the session and developed the mathematical models), and Dr John Kidd (who ran 1,000,000 simulations.) Does Marriage Equal Sex? The puzzle of the missing children was vividly encapsulated by Joseph Smith III, who found it "incomprehensible" that his "father should have had such a crew of lusty young women as wives, and not one of them had a baby by him. Not one, not a single baby". The presentation emphasized that while there are no identified or verified children from these plural unions, historians cannot definitively state that there were no children. Factors such as high infant mortality, stillbirth, or children who grew up under different names could account for unknown progeny. Mark Tensmeyer examined the foundational question: Does the fact that Joseph Smith married these women mean that he was sexually active with them?. While there is direct testimony of consummation for some wives (such as Emily Partridge and Melissa Lott), for the majority, evidence is absent or scarce. Arguments supporting consummation included the 19th-century societal norm where a marriage was often not considered complete if unconsummated. Conversely, arguments suggesting limited or no consummation centered on: Smith's lack of cohabitation with many plural wives. Other motives for marriage, such as dynastic connections or integrating plural marriage into the community. The fact that Smith and his immediate circle were not actively trying to conceive children with plural wives, contrasting with Brigham Young's later efforts to "raise up seed to Joseph". The gradual rollout of polygamy, which was necessarily shrouded in secrecy and denial, particularly due to Emma Smith's disapproval and limited knowledge of the full extent of the practice. To address the historical ambiguity, the researchers focused on 33 "consensus wives"—those agreed upon by prominent histor...

The Katherine Massey Book Club @ The C.O.W.S. hosts the 5th and final study session on Maria Eftimiades's The Sins Of The Mother: The Heartbreaking True Story Behind the Susan Smith Murder Case. In October of 1994 (mere months after the arrest of Orenthal James Simpson), Susan Smith was introduced to the world as a #WeepingWhiteWoman who claimed a no count black dude stole her car with her two small White children in the back seat. White people across the land were furious. It took nearly two weeks for police to discover that Smith not only fabricated the story that a black fella drove off with her kids, she ultimately confessed to drowning her own toddlers. Gus insists that listeners pay particular attention to the black misandry of this case. Last week, we heard more from privileged black male Gilliam Edwards. Eftimiades described Edwards as "angry" and "radical" for publicly broadcasting that Susan Smith practiced Racism and targeted defenseless black people who have no army to protect them. The White author told us that no one listed to this angry black dude. Conversely, many were quick to forgive Susan Smith, insisting her mind must have "snapped." #FamilyAnnihilator #INVEST in The COWS - http://paypal.me/TheCOWS Cash App: http://cash.app/$TheCOWS Call: 720.716.7300 Code: 564943#

After Disney and ABC felt the economic pressure and changed course, agreeing to put Jimmy Kimmel back on air, Sinclair and Nexstar stepped in and said they would not allow their ABC affiliate stations to air Kimmel's show.As the BBC reported, Nexstar and Sinclair, which together run dozens of stations affiliated to ABC, said they would continue to replace the (Kimmel) show with regular programming Tuesday. But the people who believe in the free speech protection of the First Amendment can use their economic power to impact this decision.If people tune in to their local ABC station at 11:30 pm, and see that the station is NOT airing the show, then make a note of all the advertisers running commercials on the replacement show and don't support them..Conversely, if you see your local ABC affiliate IS airing Kimmel, make a note of the advertisers running commercials on during Kimmel and SUPPORT those advertisers and products. This is how we can wield our economic power in support of free speech and against a lawless Trump regime.For nightly live Law Talks, please join Glenn on Substack: glennkirschner.substack.comIf you're interested in supporting our all-volunteer efforts, you can become a Team Justice patron at: / glennkirschner If you'd like to support Glenn and buy Team Justice and Justice Matters merchandise visit:https://shop.spreadshirt.com/glennkir...Check out Glenn's website at https://glennkirschner.com/Follow Glenn on:Threads: https://www.threads.net/glennkirschner2Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/glennkirschner2Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/glennkirsch...Bluesky: https://bsky.app/profile/glennkirschn...TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/glennkirschner2See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

Munaf Manji and SleepyJ talk NFL player props for Week 3. NFL Player Props – Week 3 [Opening Segment] (timestamps vary by section) The discussion centers on betting angles for Week 3 player props, with analysts pointing out favorable matchups and statistical trends. Direct quotes reveal a focus on efficiency and expected production. For example: “You have to look at how many times he's being targeted in the red zone, that's where the value comes in.” This emphasizes the importance of opportunity over pure yardage totals when evaluating props. [Quarterbacks] Attention is given to pass attempts and touchdowns. One speaker highlights: “Daniel Jones is averaging nearly 35 pass attempts per game, but the efficiency is what's holding him back.” This implies that volume alone does not guarantee fantasy or betting success—completion rates and game scripts matter. [Running Backs] Breece Hall is scrutinized for underwhelming production despite decent yards-per-carry averages. “He's sitting at 4.7 per carry, but without consistent usage, you can't back the over.” This underscores the risk of betting on backs whose offensive systems don't prioritize them. Meanwhile, Jordan Mason is framed as an emerging value: “He's looked better than Aaron Jones on limited touches, averaging 4.1 yards per carry.” This points to his growing role in the Vikings' backfield. [Wide Receivers & Tight Ends] The analysts debate Kyle Pitts versus Cade Otten, noting Pitts' “11 receptions on 13 targets, 96 yards” compared with Otten's potential boost due to Buccaneers' injuries. The commentary suggests Pitts remains a frustrating hold while Otten could be a buy-low play. For receivers, Keenan Allen is praised for “17 targets and two touchdowns already”, reinforcing his role as Justin Herbert's primary option. [Team-Level Context] Defenses are tied into betting strategy. The Buccaneers' run-stopping prowess—“allowing just 105 rushing yards total through two games”—is highlighted as a reason to fade certain running backs. Conversely, the Panthers' weak rush defense bolsters confidence in Atlanta's ground-heavy attack led by Bijan Robinson and Tyler Allgeier. Learn more about your ad choices.
