Episode 138: Graves, Chores, and a Robot With a Fence Problem 138 episodes in and we still haven't run out of things to talk about. Which is either impressive or concerning, depending on your perspective. This week, Dan and Nicole cover the man who accidentally became a gravedigger in 1952 and just... never stopped. 73 years, 5,600 graves, and a retirement so quiet he didn't bother telling his own kids. Meanwhile, science has some bad news for anyone who takes their phone into the bathroom (spoiler: that's all of you), and a delivery robot in East Hollywood went full-and-run -- dragging a woman's garden fence down the street while she chased it through traffic, screaming at a machine that absolutely did not care. Also: Dan's 3D printer has been off for a combined six hours since he got it, he made a tomb tea light holder for Easter (it's fine), and "chore-mancing" is apparently the hot new dating trend, which is just... going to Costco with a stranger. We have questions. New episodes drop every Wednesday. Or on Monday nights if you want to watch us figure it out live. Either way -- we're still spinning.

Kasim Aslam's journey from welfare baby to a seven-million-dollar net worth entrepreneur demonstrates the transformative power of failure combined with calculated risk management. His philosophy centers on a crucial principle: manage downside risk while failing aggressively in all aspects of life. The 2008 financial collapse stripped him of everything, leaving him eating free samples at Costco, yet this crucible taught him that money is fuel, not wealth, fundamentally reshaping his relationship with success and removing the hunger for acquisition that once drove him forward. Beyond his business ventures, Kasim's worldview is shaped by a deep commitment to questioning arbitrary societal systems and advocating for those marginalized by them. His brother's incarceration for nonviolent drug crimes stemming from pharmaceutical addiction highlighted the hypocrisy of legal systems that criminalize individuals while protecting corporations. This injustice informs his broader philosophy about entrepreneurship, education, and human potential—he believes society systematically suppresses entrepreneurial minds through rule-focused education systems and punitive legal structures rather than creating legitimate channels for their ambition. For those seeking to understand the principles of effective delegation, strategic business scaling, and the psychology of entrepreneurial success, Kasim Aslam offers invaluable resources and insights. Visit his website to access his free hiring book, workbooks, cheat sheets, and global job board—democratizing knowledge typically requiring expensive consultants. Explore his mastermind communities designed to support entrepreneurs in building strong teams and implementing effective delegation strategies.

This Day in Legal History: Butler ActOn March 13, 1925, the Tennessee General Assembly approved the Butler Act, a statute that made it unlawful for public school teachers to present any theory that denied the biblical account of human creation. The law specifically prohibited teaching that humans evolved from lower forms of life, reflecting growing tensions between scientific ideas and religious beliefs in early twentieth-century America. Tennessee lawmakers framed the statute as a way to protect traditional moral values in public education. Critics, however, immediately argued that the law restricted academic freedom and undermined the teaching of modern science.The controversy quickly escalated when a young teacher, John T. Scopes, agreed to challenge the statute. Scopes was charged with violating the Butler Act after he allowed evolution to be discussed in his classroom. His prosecution led to the famous 1925 Scopes “Monkey” Trial in Dayton, Tennessee. The trial drew national attention and featured two of the era's most prominent legal figures: Clarence Darrow for the defense and William Jennings Bryan for the prosecution. Their courtroom clash turned the case into a dramatic public debate over science, religion, and the role of government in shaping school curricula.Although Scopes was ultimately convicted and fined $100, the trial exposed deep cultural divisions within the United States. Media coverage portrayed the proceedings as a symbolic struggle between modern scientific thinking and religious fundamentalism. Over time, the Butler Act came to be seen by many as an example of government overreach into education and intellectual inquiry. Tennessee formally repealed the statute in 1967, decades after the trial had become a lasting symbol of the conflict between science and law.Federal Circuit Judge Pauline Newman has asked the U.S. Supreme Court to review her ongoing challenge to a suspension imposed by her fellow judges. In a petition filed Thursday, the 98-year-old judge argues that the D.C. Circuit wrongly ruled that courts cannot review many challenges to judicial suspension orders under the Judicial Conduct and Disability Act. Newman contends that the statute should allow review when suspension decisions violate the law or the Constitution. Her petition claims the lower court misinterpreted the law by blocking challenges to actions that exceed the authority granted under the statute. Newman argues that her suspension effectively removes her from the bench without impeachment, which she says undermines constitutional protections for judicial independence and lifetime tenure.The Federal Circuit's judicial council first suspended Newman in 2023 after concerns that potential mental or physical health issues made her unable to perform judicial duties. The suspension followed her refusal to undergo medical evaluations requested by her colleagues and was characterized as serious misconduct. Although the suspension was initially set for one year, it has been renewed twice. Newman appealed through the internal judicial review process, but a national committee of judges upheld the suspension in 2024. She also challenged the suspension in federal court, arguing that parts of the judicial discipline law are unconstitutional. Both a district court and the D.C. Circuit dismissed the case, relying on a statutory provision stating that disciplinary orders under the act are final and not subject to judicial review. Newman now asks the Supreme Court to clarify whether courts may still review suspension orders that allegedly exceed legal or constitutional limits.Judge Newman Takes Suspension Battle To Supreme Court - Law36098-year-old judge asks US Supreme Court to hear case over her suspension | ReutersThe U.S. Commodity Futures Trading Commission (CFTC) has begun the process of developing regulations for prediction markets, issuing an advance notice of proposed rulemaking and asking the public for input on how the industry should be governed. The agency said the move is intended to support innovation while ensuring prediction markets operate within the framework of the Commodity Exchange Act. Interest in regulation has grown as more companies apply to register as designated contract markets, with many applications coming from prediction market platforms. These platforms allow users to trade on the outcomes of events such as sports games, elections, and entertainment awards.The CFTC is seeking feedback on several issues, including whether margin trading should be allowed, what types of event contracts might be harmful to the public interest, and whether individuals with insider knowledge should be restricted from trading on certain outcomes. At the same time, the agency released staff guidance reminding platforms to avoid contracts that could be easily manipulated, such as those tied to specific player injuries or actions by a single referee. The guidance also explains that platforms can list new contracts through a self-certification process, although the CFTC can intervene if it believes a contract violates the law.The regulatory effort comes amid ongoing legal disputes about who has authority over prediction markets. The CFTC maintains that it has exclusive jurisdiction, while several states have attempted to regulate or restrict these platforms under gambling laws. Meanwhile, members of Congress have introduced legislation that would ban certain types of event contracts, including those related to violence or death, and strengthen rules against insider trading on prediction markets.CFTC Proposes Prediction Markets Rule - Law360CFTC Seeks Public Comment on Advanced Notice of Proposed Rulemaking Relating to Prediction MarketsThe Trump administration has filed a lawsuit against California seeking to block the state's Advanced Clean Cars I (ACC I) regulations, arguing that the rules unlawfully interfere with federal authority over vehicle fuel economy standards. The lawsuit, brought by the U.S. Department of Justice and the Department of Transportation, targets California rules adopted in 2012 that require automakers to sell increasing numbers of low-emission and zero-emission vehicles. Federal officials claim the regulations effectively force manufacturers to meet stricter nationwide standards and function as a quota system for electric vehicles.According to the complaint, California cannot impose its own limits on vehicle emissions because the federal Energy Policy and Conservation Act gives the federal government authority to set fuel-economy standards through the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration. The administration argues that California's requirements could increase vehicle prices, reduce consumer choice, and disrupt the national auto market. Federal officials also say Congress revoked certain Clean Air Act waivers in 2025 that previously allowed California to enforce some emissions rules.California leaders strongly dispute the lawsuit and say the state is defending policies designed to reduce pollution and expand access to cleaner vehicles. State officials argue the federal government is attempting to undermine California's environmental regulations and its efforts to lead the transition to cleaner transportation. The lawsuit is part of a broader series of legal disputes between the federal government and California over vehicle emissions standards and electric-vehicle mandates.Feds Sue To Stop California's ‘Illegal' EV Regulations - Law360U.S. Customs and Border Protection (CBP) told a federal court that it is making progress on a system to refund about $166 billion in tariffs that were ruled unlawful. According to a court filing, the agency's four-part refund system is between 40% and 80% complete, with the review portion the most developed and the mass-processing component the least finished. The system will include an online portal where importers and brokers can submit claims for reimbursement.The filing was submitted to the U.S. Court of International Trade in response to an order from a judge directing the government to begin refunding tariffs after the U.S. Supreme Court struck down most of the tariffs in February. The Court's decision invalidated tariffs collected since February 2024 but did not explain how refunds should be handled. CBP previously suggested building a new system to process claims rather than using its existing process, and officials say the new portal could begin accepting applications as soon as mid-April.More than 330,000 importers paid the tariffs on roughly 53 million shipments, though only about 21,000 importers are currently registered to receive refunds. Refunds will go only to the companies that originally paid the tariffs, and there is no legal requirement that businesses pass the money on to consumers. Some companies, including FedEx, have said they will reimburse customers, while Costco indicated it may lower prices using the refunded funds. Meanwhile, new legal disputes are emerging as businesses and states challenge additional tariffs imposed after the Supreme Court ruling.US customs agency says building system for tariff refunds is 40% to 80% complete | Reuters This is a public episode.

Season four keeps rolling and the boys are back with another episode that somehow manages to cover hot dogs, diesel engine engineering, sharpening stone philosophy, wood trivia, and a legitimate debate about whether you should own a tow strap before they wrap things up just over an hour.The episode opens with everyone sharing their go-to hot dog order. Ross goes full Chicago style — poppy seed bun, Vienna beef, mustard, celery salt, neon green relish, tomato, pickle spear, and sport peppers — and just mustard when life gets busy. Colton is firmly in the bratwurst with kraut and dark mustard camp. Jess goes jalapeño cheddar brat with mayo, chili, cheese, and sauerkraut all at once, which Ross politely refuses to be in a truck with afterwards. Honorable mention goes to the Costco hot dog at a dollar fifty.Jess then lays out a full diesel engine situation with his new truck — specifically the known CP4 high pressure fuel pump issue on 6.7 liter Power Stroke engines that can fail and send metal flakes through the entire fuel injection system, turning a pump replacement into a fifteen thousand dollar problem. He walks through the disaster prevention kit option and the upgraded SS Diesel pump solution. Ross and Colton weigh in on Harbor Freight's shifting tool strategy, including why the Pittsburgh line selection is shrinking while the Icon tools get pricier and whether Amazon is quietly eating their single-item sales.The sharpening stone conversation that follows is genuinely useful — diamond plates versus water stones, why stones are actually less aggressive and let you skip grits more easily, and how a simple triangular knife sharpening kit from Harbor Freight can live in your packout kit for onsite honing without taking up any real space.Trivia picks up where episode 136 left off, covering quarter sawing and why it matters for zebra wood and quilted maple, what tool the chainsaw replaced, what kerf means, dovetail and mortise and tenon joints, why white oak was used in shipbuilding, the South American hardwood Ipe that sinks in water, what the pith of a tree is and why it cracks, and the wood lathe as the machine that transformed furniture production. The sudden death finale comes down to a self lubricating wood used in submarine propeller shaft bearings whose name literally means wood of life. Ross correctly answers Lignum Vitae, doubles his wager, and takes a commanding season lead.The snugits close things out strong. Jess recommends putting a quality diesel fuel additive in every tank fill rather than waiting for problems, and mentions that some additive companies will also test your oil or fuel sample for metal content if you want a real read on engine health. Ross makes the case for always keeping a 90 degree drill offset in your go bag after learning the hard way when picking up an old table build at a customer's house. Colton echoes the advice and adds that this is one tool you should not go cheap on — the Milwaukee version being the one that finally held up after a string of broken budget ones. Colton also wraps with a tow strap recommendation after watching a fully loaded diesel generator truck get stuck at a rodeo job site and needing a forty ton tractor to pull it out.Find more at BeatAroundTheBench.com Tags: woodworking podcast, Beat Around the Bench, season four, diesel truck maintenance, CP4 fuel pump, Harbor Freight tools, sharpening stones versus diamond plates, wood trivia, quarter sawn lumber, Ipe decking, Lignum Vitae, woodworking packout kit, 90 degree drill offset, tow strap truck kit, woodworking podcast 2025, JessBuildIt, ColdCrit, RNC Woodworking

This week on Two Parents & A Podcast we're celebrating Harrison's BIRTHDAY (with a gift reveal on camera!!), debating a tiny relationship lie that has the internet divided (it involves key lime pie lol), and talking about a parenting question we genuinely didn't know the answer to: what bathroom should girl dads take their daughters to in public?!  We get into the new screen time guidelines for kids from the American Academy of Pediatrics and why the conversation around screens is shifting from “how much” to “how and why” (+ the new DESSERT analogy we love). Plus: Harrison's getting in shape before baby boy arrives (+ his new focus on sleep), we officially started our sourdough era, and we've got THE SUIT that Harrison plans to wear when he brings baby boy home from the hospital. Later in the episode we talk about a neighborhood school Q&A that made us really excited about the future, whether travel actually helps toddlers hit developmental milestones (spoiler alert: IT DOES!!!), and something we saw that we think is really cool: Costco helping make IVF treatment more affordable for families. Finally, we answer a listener question for Dr. Ari about introducing allergens when a parent has allergies. LOVE YOU GUYS. Thanks for listening!!!!  Timestamps:  00:00:00 Welcome back to Two Parents & A Podcast! 00:01:38 HAPPY BIRTHDAY, HARRISON!  00:07:47 BICKER OF THE WEEK: Is THIS tiny relationship lie OK?!  00:10:35 Asking for forgiveness vs. permission 00:19:41 We've got our sourdough starter!  00:23:35 Harrison got the suit he will wear home from the hospital! 00:27:45 Getting in shape before the baby is born 00:32:23 Can lack of sleep cancel out the benefits of exercise? 00:40:33 School Q&A happy hour with neighborhood moms  00:48:58 THINGS WE DMED EACHOTHER: The AAP's new screen time guidelines for kids 00:59:10 Where should dads take daughters to the bathroom? 01:05:56 Do you remember the first time you got lost?!  01:07:41 We're going to Disney World!!!! 01:17:38 Travel actually DOES help toddlers hit milestones  01:21:07 THINGS WE DMED EACHOTHER: Costco making IVF more affordable?! 01:24:28 IN THE COMMENTS: A listener question for Dr. Ari: introducing allergens when YOU have allergies?!  01:26:24 LOVE YOU GUYS! #twoparentsandapod --------------------------------------------------------------- Thank you to our sponsors this week: *Bobbie: If you want to feed with confidence too, head to https://www.hibobbie.com for the formula trusted by 700,000+ parents. *Little Spoon: Simplify your kids' mealtimes.

In this wide-ranging episode Steve Dennis and Michael LeBlanc are joined by special guest co-host Kevin Ertell, retail veteran, former Nike executive, and author of The Strategy Trap. The episode blends breaking retail news with a live interview recorded at the NRF Big Show featuring Malin Andrée, Global Retail Sector Leader at EY, and Jon Copestake, Global Lead Retail Analyst at EY Insights. The episode begins with an analysis of one of the most significant geopolitical developments impacting the global economy: the escalating Iran war and its ripple effects on retail markets. Rising oil prices and potential disruptions through the Strait of Hormuz threaten to increase shipping costs and add new uncertainty to global supply chains. The hosts also dive into the latest retail earnings reports, highlighting challenges and future opportunities under new leadership at Target, mixed performance at Gap and continued momentum from Costco. They also examine the rapid growth of athletic brand On, whose strong sales growth contrasts with cautious forward guidance, and discuss what it signals about competition with legacy players like Nike with Kevin's expert and experienced analysis. The episode then shifts to a fascinating interview with Malin Andrée, EY Partner, Global Retail Industry Leader and Jon Copestake Global Lead Retail Analyst, EY Insights, who share insights from EY's latest consumer research and industry analysis. Their discussion explores the changing dynamics of luxury retail, including growing consumer interest in resale and second-hand luxury markets, which are being driven by affordability concerns, sustainability awareness and improved authentication platforms. Andrée and Copestake also address the accelerating role of retail AIl, from operational improvements to emerging consumer-facing applications such as AI-driven product discovery and shopping assistance. While AI investment is surging across the industry, they emphasize the importance of balancing technology with human-centered retail experiences, arguing that the human touch will remain a key differentiator even as AI capabilities become table stakes. The episode concludes with the hosts' Remarkable Story of the Week and What's on the Radar segments, including discussions about Simon Property Group's strategic maneuvering around the Saks Global bankruptcy and Walmart's rollout of digital shelf labels across its stores.

Bobo's: Beryl Stafford. A Single Mom Turns a Baking Project into a $100M BusinessAt 40, Beryl Stafford's life cracked open. Her marriage ended, she hadn't worked in years, and she had two daughters to raise. She needed income—fast. So she did the only thing that felt real: she baked.What started as 4-ingredient oat bars— hastily placed in a Boulder coffee shop—became Bobo's, a national brand built in the Silicon Valley of natural foods. In this episode, Beryl walks us through the scrappy early days: buying ingredients at full retail, a risky $25K packaging machine, the Whole Foods breakthrough, the burnout, and the pressure shift that comes with outside capital—and Costco.It's a story powered by community support, relentless demos, and a founder who kept saying “yes” before she knew how.What you'll learn: Why “survival” can be a powerful founder advantageHow to sell your product before you feel ready (and why that's often the point)The unglamorous truth of early CPG: shelf life, shared kitchens, endless demosIn a trend-driven category, the value of sticking to a recipe “your grandmother could have made.” The two faces of Costco: growth rocket and operational trapTimestamps:08:35—Divorced at 40… “I was trying to survive.” 12:02—The baking project with her daughter… and the unexpected product-market signal17:21—The first sale: snack bars in cellophane; making up a price28:38—Sharing a kitchen with Justin's Nut Butters: scrappy collaboration + conflict31:49—The first-time founder playbook: sell first, learn the rest later33:54—Whole Foods says yes… before she knows what “freezer safe packaging” even means39:10—Getting into national distribution: “What just happened?” 46:34—Burnout, hiring a CEO, raising outside money—and what changes when investors arrive54:31—The Costco conundrum: huge upside, real downside —------------------This episode was produced by Noor Gill, with music by Ramtin Arablouei.Edited by Neva Grant, with research help from Alex Cheng.—--------------------- Follow How I Built This:Instagram → @howibuiltthisX → @HowIBuiltThisFacebook → How I Built ThisFollow Guy Raz:Instagram → @guy.razYoutube → guy_razX → @guyrazSubstack → guyraz.substack.comWebsite → guyraz.comSee Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

Meet my friends, Clay Travis and Buck Sexton! If you love Verdict, the Clay Travis and Buck Sexton Show might also be in your audio wheelhouse. Politics, news analysis, and some pop culture and comedy thrown in too. Here’s a sample episode recapping four takeaways. Give the guys a listen and then follow and subscribe wherever you get your podcasts. How Does This End? The escalating conflict with Iran. Clay and Buck break down a major report from Fox News’ Trey Yingst, who reveals that Israel struck a gathering of Iran’s Supreme Council while they were choosing a new Supreme Leader—an unprecedented intelligence and operational blow. Clay and Buck analyze the implications of U.S.–Israeli air superiority, expressing the view that Iran’s leadership is increasingly vulnerable and unable to protect even top officials. They discuss the likelihood of the U.S. and Israel shaping Iran’s future leadership, referencing historic parallels such as the Northern Alliance in Afghanistan and Venezuela’s post‑Maduro transition. The conversation deepens as they react to President Trump’s warnings that failure to act against Iran’s nuclear program could have led to a “nuclear war,” followed by explosive comments from negotiator Steve Witkoff, who recounts Iran bragging about possessing enough enriched uranium for 11 nuclear bombs. Clay and Buck examine how these revelations accelerated U.S. action and what a post‑strike political landscape may look like inside Iran. Texas Primary Day! Clay Travis and Buck Sexton interview with Congressman Wesley Hunt, a leading candidate in the Texas Senate primary. Hunt lays out his case for next‑generation conservative leadership, citing his West Point background, combat service as an Apache pilot, support for term limits, and strong alignment with President Trump. He sharply criticizes what he calls the “soft bigotry of low expectations” from liberal politicians, slams Gavin Newsom’s recent comments, and emphasizes his commitment to cultural clarity on issues like gender, family values, and assimilation. Hunt also discusses Iran, calling Trump’s actions “peace through strength” and asserting that strategic force prevents greater conflict. Sen. Markwayne Mullin An extended interview featuring Senator Markwayne Mullin of Oklahoma, who discusses the unfolding U.S.–Israel military campaign against Iran. Senator Mullin emphasizes that this is not another Iraq or Afghanistan but a direct confrontation with a regime that has targeted Americans for 47 years. He explains why President Trump’s strategy differs from previous administrations and outlines the intelligence behind striking Iranian leadership, including revelations that Iran claimed to possess enough enriched uranium for 11 nuclear bombs. Mullin argues that Trump’s approach—eliminating threats rather than delaying action—is both historically rare and strategically necessary. Clay and Buck then explore how these operations intersect with the America First doctrine. Senator Mullin responds to skeptical constituents by explaining why actions in Venezuela, Cuba, and Iran directly impact U.S. national security, from drug trafficking to global energy markets. He details how a nuclear‑armed Iran could destabilize world shipping lanes, spike oil prices, endanger U.S. allies, and ultimately threaten the American homeland. The conversation also touches on congressional issues including the SAVE Act and the challenges of overcoming a Senate filibuster. In a lighter turn, the hosts dive into a humorous discussion about physical fitness on Capitol Hill, reacting to viral footage of Secretary of War Pete Hegseth bench‑pressing 315 pounds. Senator Mullin, known for his own extreme fitness feats, compares strength metrics across members of Congress and discusses why physical conditioning boosts confidence, mental health, and leadership. Clay Buys a Tesla In a lighter cultural shift, Clay and Buck riff on generational habits, restaurant drink trends, and Costco culture—highlighted by Buck’s wife humorously blaming his Pellegrino obsession for her bulk‑shopping trips. This segues into a forward‑looking discussion on the future of autonomous driving, sparked by Clay’s firsthand experience with Tesla’s self-driving technology. They predict that self‑driving cars will become the global standard within a generation, reducing accidents, lowering insurance costs, ending drunk driving, and transforming how Americans view car ownership and transportation.
