River cruises aren't cancelled this year, they're adjusting, and that distinction matters more than most advisors are giving it credit for. In this episode Glenda breaks down how to actually talk to clients about water level disruptions, whether they're already booked or still deciding, without panicking them and without torching your own sales down the road. She uses her own backyard as the example: an Alberta town that went from drought warnings and lake level maps in March to 19 inches of rain by June, proof that conditions change fast and your messaging needs to be built for that reality, not for the panic of the moment.

Aandeelhouders hebben er weken naar uitgekeken. De kwartaalcijfers van SpaceX. De omzet steeg flink en het verlies werd bijna gehalveerd. Maar dat was niet genoeg om de vieze smaak van de AI-investeringen weg te spoelen. SpaceX heeft in drie maanden tijd namelijk meer dan 18 miljard dollar uitgegeven. Een bedrag waar beleggers dus van schrikken: het aandeel maakt een duikvlucht. Deze aflevering hebben we het over die zorgen. Zijn ze terecht of moet SpaceX wel mee met de rest op Wall Street? En we bereiden je (als aandeelhouder) voor. Morgen mogen insiders namelijk weer aandelen verkopen. De verwachting is dat de beurskoers dan wéér een tik krijgt. Verder aandacht voor Heineken. Dat groeit! De volumes zijn gestegen en dat is toch wel een verrassing. Met name doordat de bierbrouwer goede zaken in China doet en door de verkoop van alcoholvrij bier. Het resulteert in meer omzet en meer winst. Ook hoor je over WolterKluwers. Dat werd kwartaal op kwartaal afgestraft, terwijl het met goede cijfers kwam. Dit keer zijn beleggers niet angstig. En supermarktreus Ahold Delhaize let op de kleintjes in de VS. Het verlaagt de prijzen van boodschappen (om Amerikanen te lokken), maar dat gaat ten koste van de winstmarge. Te gast: Nico Inberg van De Aandeelhouder BNR Beurs is een journalistiek onafhankelijke productie, mede mogelijk gemaakt door Saxo. Over de makers: Jelle Maasbach is presentator van BNR Beurs en freelance financieel journalist. Zijn favoriete aandeel om over te praten is Disney, maar daar lijkt hij de enige in te zijn. Sinds de eerste uitzending van BNR Beurs is 'ie er bij. Maxim van Mil is presentator van BNR Beurs en journalist bij BNR, waar hij zich focust op de financiële markten en ontwikkelingen in de tech-wereld. Je krijgt hem het meest enthousiast als hij kan praten over ASML, of oer-Hollandse bedrijven zoals Ahold of ABN Amro. Jorik Simonides is presentator van BNR Beurs, economieredacteur en verslaggever bij BNR. Hij wordt er vooral blij van als het een keer níet over AI gaat. Je hoort hem ook in de BNR-podcast Moerdijk: dorp van de rekening. Milou Brand is presentator van BNR Beurs, freelance podcastmaker en columnist bij het Financieele Dagblad. Jochem Visser is presentator van BNR Beurs, maakt Beursnerd XL en is redacteur bij de podcast Onder Curatoren. Vraag hem naar obscure zaken op financiële markten en hij vertelt je waarom het eigenlijk nóg leuker is dan je al dacht. Over de podcast: Met BNR Beurs ga je altijd voorbereid de nieuwe beursdag in. We praten je in een kleine 25 minuten bij over alle laatste ontwikkelingen op de handelsvloer. We blijven niet alleen bij de AEX of Wall Street, maar vertellen je ook waar nog meer kansen liggen. En we houden het niet bij de cijfers, maar zoeken ook iedere dag voor je naar duiding van scherpe gasten en experts. Of je nu een ervaren belegger bent of net begint met je eerste stappen op de beurs, de podcast biedt waardevolle inzichten voor je beleggingsstrategie. Door de focus op zowel de korte termijn als de lange termijn, helpt BNR Beurs luisteraars om de ruis van de markt te scheiden van de essentie.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

What does it take to deliver reliable connectivity to a floating city carrying thousands of guests across the world's oceans? Recorded at Cisco Live, this episode features Diogo Almeida, Head of IT Infrastructure at AIDA Cruises, and Amine Belhad, IT Network Architect at AIDA Cruises. Together, they share what happens behind the scenes to keep one of Europe's leading cruise fleets connected while supporting everything from guest services and entertainment to restaurants, healthcare facilities, security systems, and operational technology. Most travelers think of a cruise ship as a vacation destination. The reality is far more complex. Each vessel operates like a self-contained city at sea, complete with data centers, wireless networks, hospitality systems, broadcast infrastructure, retail operations, medical facilities, and connectivity requirements that extend far beyond the ship itself. During our conversation, Diogo and Amine explained how guest expectations have evolved dramatically in recent years. Travelers now expect the same digital experiences they enjoy at home, whether that's streaming content, staying connected with family, accessing onboard services through mobile applications, or remaining productive while traveling. Meeting those expectations requires a resilient technology foundation capable of operating in one of the most challenging environments imaginable. We discuss the architecture supporting AIDA's fleet, the role of automation in managing complex environments, and how standardization has helped improve operational consistency across multiple ships. The conversation also explores how connectivity supports both guest experiences and business operations, from check-in processes and shore excursions to entertainment systems and day-to-day vessel management. Looking ahead, we examine how AI, predictive analytics, and greater visibility into infrastructure performance could help identify issues before they impact guests or crew. As digital services become increasingly important to the cruise experience, proactive operations are becoming just as important as connectivity itself. What stood out throughout this discussion was the scale of what happens behind the scenes. Most passengers never see the technology supporting their vacation, but it plays a role in almost every aspect of their experience from the moment they arrive at the terminal until they return home. As customer expectations continue to rise, how can organizations deliver increasingly connected experiences while operating in environments where reliability matters more than ever?

With Taylor at the New York Knicks championship parade, Mikey A thinks parades are on the list of things that sound good but are actually terrible, which leads to a discussion of other things that fall in that category. Cruises? Picnics? Plus, Stugotz's daughter sang "Take Me Out to the Ballgame" at Wrigley for the Cubs game. The great Tony Hawk joins the show.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

We are super excited to have three guests on today's show, sharing two different cruises on the Disney Destiny! We have Tyler, who sailed the Destiny on the sailing prior to Matt & Sara over Spring Break 2026! They all work together in the same school in Washington state so had many stories to share! We talked about a glitch that delayed Tyler's embarkation, Matt & Sara's thoughts about the Wish vs. the Destiny, ideas on the main dining experiences, shows and entertainment onboard, preferences and experiences on Disney's private islands, and the smaller experiences throughout their sailings! You will also hear about the world's largest chicken nugget!  We hope you can continue the conversation with us this week in the Be Our Guest Podcast Clubhouse at www.beourguestpodcast.com/clubhouse!
