Find us at www.crisisinvesting.com Read Dr. Danger Zone by Kolja Spöri at https://www.amazon.com/dp/3903713023 Doug and Matt interview elite traveler Kolja Spöri about his new book, Dr. Danger Zone, a collection of 25 highlight stories from a lifetime of travel to remote and dangerous places, paired with his on-the-ground conclusions that often contradict mainstream narratives. Kolja recounts driving Russia's northern ice roads in extreme cold, visiting conflict zones and politically sensitive regions, and seeking out famous "watering hole" hotels, including Haiti's Hotel Oloffson. The conversation shifts to his views on Turkey's development under Erdoğan, increasing surveillance and political repression in Western Europe—especially Germany—and his belief that Europe is being pushed toward a wider war with Russia while migration is used as a weapon against European civilization. They also discuss his Libya trip during the Arab Spring, his connections that enabled access to places like Chechnya, the FARC, and Mindanao, a rap song made about his life, and his Formula 1 sponsorship career. 00:00 Meet Kolja Spöri 01:09 Inside Dr Danger Zone 04:33 Languages and Turkey 07:48 Europe Turning Point 10:24 War With Russia Fears 15:10 Migration and Culture Clash 21:32 Ice Road Adventure 25:17 Haiti Hotel Legends 27:41 Goma Danger Factors 30:22 Entering Libya During Spring 32:11 Armed Kids Reality 32:51 Planning Warzone Access 33:36 Libya Benghazi Insights 35:16 Borders And Breakups 36:40 Chechnya To FARC 39:00 Mindanao And Militants 41:20 Rap Tribute Breakdown 45:31 Karabakh And Azerbaijan 47:15 Formula One Backstory 49:05 Next Chapter Reflections 50:13 Book Plug And Farewell
You ever notice how your worst decisions show up right when you're running on empty? Tired. Stressed. Worn down. And in that moment, you tell yourself it's no big deal…you can handle it. That's not strength. That's exactly when you're most exposed. In this 5-Minute Drill episode of Coming Up Clutch with J.R.™, J.R. breaks down why temptation isn't random. This episode targets a specific window of vulnerability and gives you a simple 3-step strategy to defend it. He shares the story of one of the darkest seasons of his own life, a nearly four-year stretch where exhaustion and isolation led him into the worst decisions he's ever made…and the wake-up call that turned it all around. This episode is about one powerful truth: The enemy doesn't need you to be evil. He just needs you to be exhausted. So stop waiting until you're already depleted to defend yourself. Start recognizing your danger zones before they cost you everything. In this episode, you'll hear: Why your worst decisions cluster around fatigue, stress, and isolation…and what that reveals about how temptation actually works. J.R.'s personal story of the darkest season of his life, and the isolation that nearly cost him his marriage, career, and life. The research on sleep deprivation and decision-making, and why your prefrontal cortex essentially goes offline when you're exhausted. How chronic stress and cortisol impair memory, weaken your immune system, and erode emotional regulation. King David's downfall in 2 Samuel, and how an idle, isolated king became vulnerable to the decision that defined his legacy. Why isolation, not weakness, is the enemy's favorite setup. The 3-step Drill to recognize your Danger Zones and defend against them before they devour you. What you'll walk away with… You'll learn how to: Identify your personal dangerzones…the conditions and circumstances that make you most vulnerable to bad decisions. Build a daily check-in practice to pause, reflect, and catch exposure before it becomes a crisis. Reframe isolation as the real threat, not a sign of strength. Stay connected to 1-2 people you can call for anything…before you need them, not after. Show up more alert, more guarded, and more ready to play offense in your career, leadership, and home. KEY QUOTES "The enemy doesn't need you to be evil. He just needs you to be exhausted." - J.R. "Just because you're surrounded by people doesn't mean you can't feel alone." - J.R. "You're not weak for needing help, you're wise for asking for it." - J.R. "Being surrounded isn't the same as being supported." - J.R.

Transform and roll... well, sort of!This week on The Insanely Dangerous Retropodshow, Dangerous Dave travels back to the toy-filled world of 1984 to revisit the transforming robots that dared to take on Transformers...GoBots!Were they an underrated part of 80s toy history, or were they always destined to live in the shadow of Optimus Prime and Megatron?Dangerous Dave begins by firing up What Happened Way Back When?, revisiting five songs, five movies and five TV shows from 1984, including Ghostbusters, The Terminator, The Karate Kid, Wham!, Van Halen and The Real Ghostbusters. Then Retro Headlines looks back at some of the major stories making news in Britain and America during an unforgettable year.DANGEROUS DEEP DIVE – THE HISTORY OF GOBOTSDave takes an extended look at the origins of GoBots, beginning with Bandai's Japanese Machine Robo toys before Tonka transformed them into the GoBots brand.We remember the heroic Guardians, led by Leader-1, and the evil Renegades, commanded by the brilliantly named Cy-Kill.There are memories of Turbo, Scooter, Small Foot, Crasher and Cop-Tur as Dave explores why the smaller and often cheaper GoBots became such popular pocket-money toys.We also revisit Challenge of the GoBots, the Hanna-Barbera cartoon that attempted to build a universe around the characters, and examine what happened when Transformers arrived and completely changed the transforming-robot battle.Was Transformers genuinely better...Or did superior characters, storytelling and marketing simply leave GoBots behind?DANGEROUS DETOUR – THE GOLDEN AGE OF 80s TOYSWhy were the 1980s so ridiculously good for toys?Dave remembers an era dominated by He-Man, Transformers, MASK, Thundercats, G.I. Joe, Ghostbusters, Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles, Visionaries, Bravestarr and, of course, GoBots.It was a time when the cartoon, comic and toy aisle all became part of one enormous childhood universe.BACK IN THE ADSWe're heading back to British television for another classic commercial as Dave remembers the wonderfully bizarre Smash Martians.Why were aliens laughing at humans for peeling potatoes?How did “For Mash Get Smash” become such a memorable slogan?And why do so many people still remember those little metal Martians decades later?RETRO RUMBLE – GOBOTS VS TRANSFORMERSIt's the battle we've been waiting for.GoBots vs Transformers!The two transforming robot giants go head-to-head across toys, characters, cartoons, value for money and pure nostalgia.GoBots put up a surprisingly strong fight...But can Leader-1 and Cy-Kill really defeat Optimus Prime and Megatron?DANGEROUSLY UNDERRATEDDave gives Challenge of the GoBots another chance and argues that the cartoon deserves to be remembered as more than simply “that other transforming robot show.”ONE SEASON WONDERWe also revisit the wonderfully 80s animated series Pole Position, with its high-tech vehicles, crime-solving adventures and connections to the classic arcade game.TOYBOX TIME MACHINEThe Toybox Time Machine opens once again as Dave remembers Voltron and the brilliant idea of taking five robotic lions and combining them into one enormous warrior.And then...It's time for Gaz.GAZ'S RAPID RETRO REVIEW – GOBOTSGaz has heard Dave defending GoBots for most of the episode...And he's having absolutely none of it.GAZ:"GoBots? Sorry, Dange... I didn't like them then and I don't like them now!They were the transforming robots you got when you really wanted Transformers.Leader-1? He's no Optimus Prime.Cy-Kill? He's basically an angry motorbike.And Scooter? Don't even get me started on Scooter.Transformers had Optimus Prime, Megatron, Starscream, Soundwave and Grimlock. GoBots had... well... GoBots.Were the toys cheap? Yes.Were they easy to transform? Yes.But that's because there wasn't much bloody transforming to do!I know you've spent this episode trying to convince everyone that GoBots deserve another chance, Dange, but I'm not buying it.For me... Transformers win every single time.Gaz's Rapid Retro Rating: ⭐⭐ – 2 out of 5"Two stars. And I'm probably being generous. Back to you, Dange!"THE DANGER ZONEAfter Gaz completely destroys them, Dave enters The Danger Zone to mount one final defence of GoBots.They may never have matched Transformers for characters, storytelling or longevity, but Dave argues that history has treated them unfairly.They were affordable.They were fun.They were easy to collect.And for plenty of kids, a GoBot was their first transforming robot.Dave awards the franchise an impressive 27 out of 30 Danger Rating...Even if Gaz would probably like to deduct about twenty points from that score!HALL OF DANGERFinally, despite Gaz's objections, GoBots enter the Hall of Danger for their contribution to the transforming robot craze and their place in 1980s toy history.Love them...Hate them...Or still wish your parents had bought you a Transformer instead...GoBots are part of the story of the 1980s.And that's why they're worth remembering.NEXT TIME...Season 9 continues as Dangerous Dave swaps transforming robots for synthesisers and heads into the incredible catalogue of...PET SHOP BOYSFrom West End Girls and It's a Sin to Always on My Mind, Heart, Being Boring and Go West, we'll explore the history, albums, greatest hits and legacy of Neil Tennant and Chris Lowe.The Insanely Dangerous Retropodshow – keeping the greatest decades alive, one dangerously nostalgic episode at a time.
Jose Torres, senior economist at Interactive Brokers, says that while the stock market has been climbing the wall of worry, the one thing overcoming many of those worries has been that government policy is pro-business and pro-market. As a result, he doesn't expect the stock market to have a down year while President Trump is in office, despite real economic concerns that are worrisome but not having much current impact. He discusses Friday's jobs numbers, the current level of inflation and much more in a wide-ranging Big Interview. In "The Week That Is," Vijay Marolia, chief investment officer at Regal Point Capital, discusses whether gold's recent rebound will get it all the way back to recent record levels, whether value's domination of growth this year is a sign of long-term market weakness — since value typically dominates only when markets are troubled — and celebrates the 91st birthday of Social Security by noting that he thinks investors with the means to not live off payments shouldn't follow conventional wisdom and wait to collect, preferring instead for them to take the money and reinvest it in the market, to further enhance growth of their long-term retirement portfolio. David Trainer, president at New Constructs, puts companies that failed his firm's "core earnings leaders" test in The Danger Zone, noting that businesses with higher core earnigns than generally-accepted accounting earnings tend to be more profitable than the market realizes, which means that companies which fail to meet core-earnings tests may be headed for trouble, as they will be less profitable than expected. He cites NXP Semiconductors as an example of a stock that has become grossly overvalued because the market isn't looking at its true earnings picture.
My guest in this episode is Dr. Kolja Spori. Kolja is a former Hugo Boss Executive, Formula 1 Agent, and Austrian Economist who has visited all 193 countries of the world. He also worked at for the Rothschilds in Geneva, Switzerland.Kolja loves to travel but specifically adventure travels to conflict areas which earned him the nickname, Dr. Dangerzone.In his quest to seek truth and liberty, he met freedom fighters, guerrillas and warlords, such as the FARC leaders "Black Death" and Tanja Nijmeijer in the Colombian mountains, the Russian Nightwolf "Chirurg" in Crimea, Chechen President Ramzan Kadyrov in Grozny, and Liberia's putschist Prince Johnson in Monrovia. Kolja narrowly missed the bombing of Donbas rebel leader Alexander Sakharchenko in the Separatist Cafè Donezk, and he won a staredown against US "Defence Secretary" Donald Rumsfeld in an elevator in Batumi.Interview Links:Kolja's Blog: https://luxuryrogue.wordpress.com/Dr. Dangerzone - In Search of Truth in the Most Daring Places on Amazon: https://amzn.to/4x4o6wGSubscribe To Our Weekly Newsletter:The Wealth Dojo: https://subscribe.wealthdojo.ai/Download all the Niches Trilogy Books:The 21 Best Cashflow NichesDigital: https://www.cashflowninjaprograms.com/the-21-best-cashflow-niches-bookAudio: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/21-best-cashflow-nichesThe 21 Most Unique Cashflow NichesDigital: https://www.cashflowninjaprograms.com/the-21-most-unique-cashflow-nichesAudio: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/21-most-unique-nichesThe 21 Best Cash Growth NichesDigital: https://www.cashflowninjaprograms.com/the-21-best-cash-growth-nichesAudio: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/21-cash-growth-nichesThe 21 Next Level Cashflow NichesDigital: https://www.cashflowninjaprograms.com/the-21-next-level-cashflow-niches-book-free-downloadAudio: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/the-21-next-level-nichesListen To Cashflow Ninja Podcasts:Cashflow Ninjahttps://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/cashflowninjaCashflow Investing Secretshttps://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/cashflowinvestingsecretsCashflow Ninja Bankinghttps://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/cashflow-ninja-bankingConnect With Us:Website: http://cashflowninja.comPodcast: http://cashflowinvestingsecrets.comPodcast: http://cashflowninjabanking.comSubstack: https://mclaubscher.substack.com/Amazon Audible: https://a.co/d/1xfM1VxAmazon Audible: https://a.co/d/aGzudX0Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/cashflowninja/Twitter: https://twitter.com/mclaubscherInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/thecashflowninja/TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@cashflowninjaLinkedin: https://www.linkedin.com/in/mclaubscher/Gab: https://gab.com/cashflowninjaYoutube: http://www.youtube.com/c/CashflowninjaRumble: https://rumble.com/c/c-329875
Hold on tight as The Insanely Dangerous Retropodshow races back to 1994 to celebrate one of the greatest action films ever made...Speed.Dangerous Dave takes a full-throttle deep dive into the blockbuster that turned Keanu Reeves into a Hollywood action hero, made Sandra Bullock an overnight superstar and gave Dennis Hopper one of the most memorable villain roles of his incredible career.The episode begins with What Happened Way Back When?, revisiting five classic songs, five unforgettable movies and five iconic television shows from 1994, before Retro Headlines looks back at the biggest stories from both the UK and the United States.In the Dangerous Deep Dive, Dave explores the origins of Speed, how the simple but brilliant "bus that can't slow below 50mph" concept came to life, the casting of Keanu Reeves, Sandra Bullock and Dennis Hopper, the incredible practical stunt work, the unforgettable motorway jump and why the film became one of the defining action movies of the 1990s.The action continues with a detailed scene-by-scene review, covering the elevator rescue, Jack Traven's leap onto the speeding bus, Annie taking the wheel, the famous motorway jump, the airport escape and the explosive subway finale, before Dave gives the film his final verdict.Season 9's Dangerous Detour explores why the late 1980s and 1990s became the golden age of practical action movies, while Back in the Ads revisits the unforgettable "You've Been Tango'd" advertising campaign and why it became one of Britain's most talked-about television commercials.In this week's Retro Rumble, two action classics collide as Speed goes head-to-head with Die Hard to decide which deserves the title of the ultimate action film.There's also another edition of Dangerously Underrated, shining a spotlight on Timecop, while One Season Wonder revisits Gerry Anderson's ambitious science-fiction series Space Precinct.The Toybox Time Machine opens once again to remember the brilliant Mighty Max toy line and animated series that captured children's imaginations during the mid-1990s.Instead of a rental recommendation this week, Gaz returns with Gaz's Rapid Retro Review, giving his quick-fire thoughts on Speed:"What more can you say? It's ninety minutes of pure adrenaline. Keanu Reeves is cool, Sandra Bullock is brilliant, Dennis Hopper is one of the best movie villains of the 90s, and once that bus gets moving it barely gives you a chance to catch your breath. If you haven't watched Speed for a while... stick it on this weekend. It still delivers. Five stars from me!"Finally, Dave heads into The Danger Zone to explain why Speed remains one of the finest action films ever made before welcoming it into the Hall of Danger.Plus, don't miss a preview of the next episode as Dangerous Dave transforms back to 1984 to explore the history, toys and cartoon series of GoBots.
Jeff Klingelhofer, portfolio manager at Aristotle Pacific Capital, says that new Federal Reserve chairman Kevin Warsh is learning on the job, but he appears unafraid to tackle the inflation problem and take the tough medicine of raising interest rates, which is likely to create a recession. The good news out of that trouble, however, is that any downturn is likely to be short-lived, with a rip-snorting bull market emerging from a corrected economy and market. David Trainer, president at New Constructs, revisits Netflix, a long-time Danger Zone pick that he says has moved out of trouble. While it hasn't gone all the way to the "attractive" level, Trainer says there is a much stronger path toward bigger profits and a better balance sheet. In "The Week That Is," Vijay Marolia, chief investment officer at Regal Point Capital, discusses a little-known hedge fund that collapsed last week, and nearly took the stock market with it. While the fund was bailed out by another hedge fund, Marolia worries that there are other potential market-shockers out there, far more than even savvy investors recognize, and that there may not be any buffers to step in and save the day the next time it happens. In addition, he discusses how earnings expectations have gotten so high that long-term investors need to grit their teeth and ride out extra volatility, and he talks about how artificial intelligence is teaching investors to want everything now, shortening time horizons, promoting excessive risk-taking and creating unrealistic ideas of what real investing can deliver.
CEO David Trainer sat down with Chuck Jaffe of Money Life to talk about our Danger Zone pick this week: Netflix (NFLX).
This week on Drinking from the Gardenhose, OB and ED come to terms with an uncomfortable truth: they're not getting old... they're just getting injured doing things that are supposed to be fun. OB recounts the company go-kart outing where he got absolutely T-boned at 40 mph, walked it off like a hero, and then discovered the real damage the next morning when simply getting out of bed became a full-contact sport. Meanwhile, ED wages war against concert ticket scanners that refuse to acknowledge his existence, leaving him to wonder if technology has officially put him on the "too old to compute" list. As if that weren't enough, OB spends an afternoon being relentlessly betrayed by a teenager during a game of Conspiracy, proving that today's youth don't just beat you... they psychologically dismantle you first. Along the way, the guys pitch what may be the world's most relatable line of middle-aged merchandise: It's an episode about bruised backs, bruised egos, malfunctioning technology, and the slow realization that your greatest athletic achievement might now be standing up without making noise.

Anika sat down with Tim Lindsay to explore what it really takes to build a publishing company from the ground up—starting with negative net worth and zero safety net. The conversation revealed the realities of bootstrapping Tellwell Publishing to over 6,000 books, the critical differences between traditional and self-publishing, and how a 128-day NICU crisis tested his leadership. Tim's journey offers a masterclass in resilience, scaling teams, and understanding the true strategic value of writing a book.In This EpisodeQuitting a day job with massive credit card debt and mastering the art of bootstrappingThe evolution of self-publishing and why traditional publishing gatekeepers are losing their gripThe three core motivations for writing a book: Give, Build, and JourneyScaling a team from 1 to 12 (the honeymoon phase) versus the painful jump to 30 employeesNavigating a 128-day NICU crisis while keeping a growing business from collapsingWhy the "Guide" function is the missing link in the modern publishing landscapeWriting The Call to Authorship in just 30 minutes a day before the second cup of coffeeThe importance of team cohesion and why traditional HR rules often miss the markTimestamps00:00 Introduction: Bootstrapping a publishing company from nothing01:34 The leap into self-employment with $50,000 in credit card debt07:04 How Amazon and Print-on-Demand revolutionized the publishing industry10:40 Understanding the real reasons people write books (Give, Build, Journey)12:25 The incredible story of The 10-Year-Old Man and publishing for impact21:44 The honeymoon startup phase and the chaos of scaling past 12 employees29:29 The parallels between starting a business, writing a book, and starting a family32:53 Tim's personal writing routine for The Call to Authorship36:58 Surviving a 128-day NICU crisis without burning out the business43:56 Why the "Guide" function became Tellwell Publishing's secret sauce48:34 Redefining book success: visibility and strategy over royalties51:14 Why team cohesion matters more than traditional management55:08 Atomic Habits and a powerful William Blake quote on taking actionKey Insights & TakeawaysInsight 1: The Three Core Motivations for Authorship (Give, Build, Journey) People don't just write books to make a profit. The drive to publish typically stems from three areas: "Give" (serving the reader or society), "Build" (using the book as a strategic tool to grow a business or speaking career), and the "Journey" (personal healing, expression, and meaning). Understanding your primary motivation changes how you write and market the book.Insight 2: The "Guide" Function is the Missing Link in Publishing While self-publishing offers higher royalties and creative control, it can be an isolating and overwhelming process. Tellwell succeeded by institutionalizing the "Guide" role—a mix of advice, project management, quality control, and emotional encouragement that empowers authors without removing their creative autonomy.Insight 3: The Danger Zone of Scaling is Between 12 and 30 Employees Growing a team to 12 people feels like a honeymoon phase where everyone communicates like a volleyball team in a huddle. But scaling past 20 requires building a functional management team. This transition drains cash flow, demands rigorous hiring, and risks creating a negative flywheel if bad hires lead to customer issues and low morale.Insight 4: A Book is a Strategic Tool, Not a Lottery Ticket Competing against millions of books and streaming platforms makes getting rich off royalties incredibly difficult. The modern author wins by using their book to gain visibility, establish credibility, and generate leads for speaking engagements or consulting services, rather than waiting to become the next Oprah book club pick.Insight 5: Consistency Trumps Free Time Tim wrote The Call to Authorship while running a scaling business and managing a family. His secret wasn't taking a sabbatical; it was dedicating 30 minutes a day to write 500 words before his second cup of coffee. Small, daily habits build momentum that eventually results in a completed 50,000-word manuscript.Insight 6: The Soft Stuff is the Hard Stuff in Business Reflecting on his journey, Tim realized he underestimated the importance of team cohesion. It isn't built at an annual retreat; it's forged in daily interactions, dropping guards, and building trust. Without that personal connection, communication breaks down and business decisions suffer.Resources & Links MentionedTellwellPublishing.comThe Call to Authorship (Tim's book)Free Guide to Self-Publishing Atomic Habits by James ClearAbout Tim LindsayTim Lindsay is the founder and CEO of Tellwell Publishing.

David Trainer, founder and president of New Constructs, puts some big-name soon-to-IPO artificial-intelligence companies in The Danger Zone this week, saying he has concerns about what they are paying for inputs compared to foreign competitors, and noting that cost disadvantages will multiply and worsen the more A.I. becomes a commodity that everyone uses. He says this is part of every industrial revolution cycle, and often becomes a big determinant in which early players survive and thrive. In "The Week That Is," Vijay Marolia, chief investment officer at Regal Point Capital, discusses today's launch of single-stock futures by the CME Group, noting that they are more a gamble than an investment and saying he never would have used them for ordinary consumers during his days as a financial planner. Where the herd is moving towards these instruments and being scared out of some A.I. companies based on the market's capital-spending concerns, Marolia says most of those market fears have been overblown, and that a careful long-term investor will find buying opportunities amid the near daily wreckage. Plus, he discusses how high electric bills — jacked up by a heat wave that has caused high usage but also by energy concerns — are the extra cost consumers are not talking about while they are busy complaining about gas prices. Charles Rotblut, vice president for the American Association of Individual Investors, discusses their latest sentiment survey results, which showed a striking drop in optimism, with bullish sentiment levels dropping by more than 15 percentage points last week as the war in Iran started heating up again. Bullish sentiment was well below its historical averages for the third time in the last four weeks, while bearish sentiment reached levels Rotblut characterized as "unusually high." Bearish sentiment has been above its historical averages for nearly 6 months straight. Martha Moore discusses the latest Business Conditions Survey out today from the National Association for Business Economics, which showed that confidence in the economy has improved but the caution level remains high. Moore, the chief economist for the American Chemistry Council, noted that for the fifth time in the last six quarters, the number of economists predicting lower forward profits was bigger than those expecting higher earnings, but she also said that more than one third of the economists are expecting higher capital expenditures over the next quarter, spending that will boost the economy in the face of mixed results on profitability.
CEO David Trainer sat down with Chuck Jaffe of Money Life to talk about our Danger Zone pick this week: The Price Is Not Right For Anthropic and OpenAI.
Corporate confusion, multiversal panic, Gotham body horror, dragon-fueled paranoia, and one very expensive boat trip. This week on the podcast, Brian and Darryl unpack the Paramount-Warner Bros. regulatory whiplash, judge the new Avengers: Doomsday and Clayface trailers, survive another cheerful hour in Westeros, and set sail with Christopher Nolan's The Odyssey. Episode Index Intro: 0:07 Doomsday Trailer: 12:19 WBD/Paramount News: 20:40 Clayface Trailer: 28:54 House of the Dragon Season 3, Episode 5: 36:45 X-Men ’97 Season 2, Episode 6: 50:20 The Odyssey: 60:00:30 Paramount-Warner Bros. Merger Paused as States' Challenge Proceeds A federal judge has granted a bid from a coalition of 12 states to temporarily stop Paramount from closing its $111 billion takeover of Warner Bros. Discovery. U.S. District Judge Araceli Martínez-Olguín on Monday issued a temporary restraining order after the states sued last week. The emergency motion sought to prevent the studio from moving ahead with the merger for 14 days. “The Court ultimately finds the public interest favors their requested TRO to stay the merger in the interim,” Martínez-Olguín wrote in the order. https://www.hollywoodreporter.com/business/business-news/paramount-warner-bros-merger-paused-states-challenge-1236651179/ Avengers: Doomsday | Official Trailer | In Theaters December 18 In Avengers: Doomsday, universes collide as the Multiverse Saga enters its final chapter. The Avengers, New Avengers, Fantastic Four, and X-Men converge across realities to face Doctor Doom, an existential threat. The film sets the stage for a universe-shattering conflict that paves the way for Avengers: Secret Wars. Clayface | Official Trailer Clayface, explores Hagen's psychological descent from a tragic victim into a revenge-filled monster, delving into themes of lost identity, corrosive love, and the dark side of scientific ambition. While originally pitched as a standalone horror film, it is now framed as the story of a disfigured victim driven by obsession rather than a traditional villain origin. The movie is scheduled for release in theaters on October 23, 2026. House of the Dragon (HBO Max) House of the Dragon, Season 3, Episode 5 Title: Unbowed and Unbent Air date: July 19, 2026 Director: Nina Lopez-Corrado Writer: Philippa Goslett Summary: As the hunt for Aemond and Vhagar continues, Rhaenyra's grip on King's Landing grows shakier and Daemon tries to contain a campaign of increasingly gruesome violence. Alicent and Helaena search for a way out of the city, Alys Rivers tightens her hold over a recovering Aemond, and Ormund begins positioning Daeron as a rival king. Meanwhile, Criston Cole marches toward what looks increasingly like an elaborate suicide-by-Riverlander, while a bloody “feast for traitors” makes it clear that Team Black has enemies hiding everywhere.

Xavier's unhealthy habit of repeatedly simulating Magneto's death helps transform the training system into a very real threat, forcing the mutants to confront what their home has become. Meanwhile, Xavier launches X-Corp as the team's new public-facing operation, while Apocalypse completes a resurrection that turns an old friend into something much more dangerous. Because apparently grief counseling was never an option. Rating Out of 5, You’re in the Dangerzone… err… Room Now Charles Brian: 4.33/5 Darryl: 4/5 The Odyssey (2026) Release Date: July 17, 2026 Runtime: 172 minutes Director: Christopher Nolan Writer: Christopher Nolan Based On: The Odyssey by Homer Studios: Universal Pictures, Syncopy, and Woodsted Picture Company Distributor: Universal Pictures Summary: After the fall of Troy, Odysseus, king of Ithaca, begins a brutal voyage home to his wife Penelope and son Telemachus. His journey becomes a years-long battle against monsters, gods, temptation, grief, and his own worst instincts, while the family he left behind struggles against the suitors consuming his kingdom. Christopher Nolan turns Homer's foundational epic into a massive, brooding survival story about war, memory, loyalty, and the consequences of being the cleverest man in every room. Main Cast: Matt Damon as Odysseus Tom Holland as Telemachus Anne Hathaway as Penelope Robert Pattinson as Antinous Lupita Nyong'o as Helen of Troy and Clytemnestra Zendaya as Athena Charlize Theron as Calypso Samantha Morton as Circe Jon Bernthal as Menelaus Benny Safdie as Agamemnon John Leguizamo as Eumaeus Himesh Patel as Eurylochus Ellen Page as Sinon Mia Goth as Melantho Production Notes: The Odyssey reunites Christopher Nolan with producer Emma Thomas and the Syncopy team behind Oppenheimer. Nolan wrote, directed, and produced the film, which was shot around the world and became the first feature photographed entirely with IMAX film cameras. The production built much of its ancient world practically and mounted a full-scale, globe-spanning shoot designed to make Odysseus' voyage feel physical, dangerous, and appropriately enormous.

What is the "friendship danger zone" and how do we manage to avoid it. Most friendship advice is for people in crisis. But the real danger zone is when someone isn't in crisis at all. They're not depressed. They're not getting divorced. They're not calling you at 2 a.m. They're just... a little quieter canceling more initiating less less excited a little lost not quite themselves The problem is nobody knows what to do because nothing is technically wrong.

Julius de Kempenaer, senior technical analyst at StockCharts, says the stock market right now is "technology against the world," and he expects that it will turn and correct, but he's not willing to put his portfolio on the line and move early, because it would put him in the path of a speeding "freight train." de Kempenaer says he can "hear what the bears are saying," and doesn't necessarily disagree with them, but he says he needs to see more signs of weakness -- like the market starting to favor defensive sectors even as it is rising -- to suggest that a downturn is near. Yalena Maleyev, senior economist at KPMG Economics – a member of the Outlook Survey Committee for the National Association for Business Economics – discusses the June 2026 NABE Outlook Survey, released today, which had the economists calling for lower and slower economic growth, higher inflation and a longer time before the Federal Reserve eases interest rates. The median expectation for personal consumption expenditures (PCE), the Fed's preferred inflation measure, rose to 3.6% for the fourth quarter. Despite those worrisome economic numbers, nearly two-thirds of the economists surveyed expect that the U.S. can forestall a recession until 2028 or later. In "The Week That Is," Vijay Marolia, chief investment officer at Regal Point Capital, discusses Kevin Warsh's debut as the chairman of the Federal Reserve, which included a hawkish stance, no dot plot or forecasting help, and a terse public statement. He also discusses the news that Charles Schwab Corp. is planning to enter prediction markets, which he says could speed up both public acceptance and regulatory scrutiny of prediction markets, and he gives his take on why the housing affordability problem is worse right now than it generally gets credit for. Plus, David Trainer, founder and president at New Constructs, puts the State Street S&P Kensho Final Frontiers ETF in the Danger Zone, noting that while the fund gets a five-star rating from Morningstar, it is filled with stocks "that are losing money hand over fist, all going after a very trendy topic ... which is hard to quantify," a condition that he says reminds him of the Internet bubble days.
Hi Everyone, Carl Gould here your #70secondCEO, just over a minute of investment per day for a lifetime of results. So, let me ask you a question. I'm going to give you 3 scenarios, tell me what you would do. First scenario, you give me, let's imagine I worked for you, you give me a $5000 expense budget, marketing, whatever. You gave me $5000, and then I went out and spent all $7500 of it! What would you say to me? What the hell? You would ask questions would you not? Maybe it was a worthwhile spend, but you'd want to know why I went over. So, if you gave me $5000 and I spent all $1000, what would you say to me? Nice job, right, I got $4000 for me or if you're not going to use it I'm not going to give it to you next year, right? But you would ask questions, would you not? You gave me $5000, and I spent $4950, what would you say to me? Nice try, you'd say well done! It gets better, you wouldn't even look at the bill. Fair? Good job, you've got bigger problems, you seem to be...go! Like and follow this podcast so you can learn more. My name is Carl Gould and this has been your #70secondCEO.
It's summer — and nothing says summer quite like Tom Cruise as Maverick soaring across the sky in Top Gun. This year marks the 40th anniversary of the original film, and with Tom Cruise's birthday on July 3rd, we figured it was the perfect excuse to revisit some of the most iconic quotes from the franchise and see what they have to say about your financial life.

Kristina Hooper, chief market strategist for Man Group, says the market is entering a "greater discernment phase," where companies have been priced for massive growth and "incredibly high standards," setting up potential disappointment as investors become more picky while the AI revolution plays out. Hooper says this is a natural progression, one that investors saw during the Internet boom, as it started to fade. "I don't consider it a bubble," Hooper says, "but I do think that there is a timer that's ticking. Many investors are expecting to see monetization sooner rather than later; we don't know how much time they will give some of these companies." Hooper says the market's strong start to this year has lowered her expectations for the rest of the year, making her more pessimistic, raising the possibility of a technical recession — two quarters of negative GDP growth — as the economy works through its issues. In "The Week That Is," Vijay Marolia, chief investment officer at Regal Point Capital, says that the record-breaking initial-public offering of SpaceX didn't change his mind about owning the stock, and in fact raised more issues about whether the hype around the company's "total addressable market" is real. He also discussed whether 2026 — with Anthropic and OpenAI also set for huge stock launches — is the "Year of the IPO," warning it may be more a time when venture capitalists are cashing out. Plus, he examines an alarming statistic about planned capital expenditures as a percentage of incoming revenues for the hyperscalers, a level currently set so high it's reminiscent of the end of the Internet boom. Kyle Guske, investment analyst at New Constructs, revisits Cava Group, which was first in The Danger Zone before its IPO in June of 2023. The stock is up about 100% since last November, but Guske says that just raises the potential for it to crater, again (it lost half of its value late last year), which is why it's back in the Danger Zone now.

In This Episode: Why patients often disappear after experiencing early pain relief The three retention milestones every chiropractic clinic should track Understanding the "Danger Zone" of the first six patient visits How "snowplowing visits" quietly destroys patient outcomes and retention The five fatal flaws that lead to patient drop-off Why becoming the "board doctor" can undermine patient commitment The importance of clearly defining the patient's care journey How to identify and save "quiet quitters" before they leave Why pre-scheduled care plans dramatically improve compliance The dangers of patient-directed care How care plan signatures increase patient commitment The "Express Scheduling" system that produces higher conversion rates Using the Fourth Visit Quiz to reinforce patient education The role of automation, VAs, and technology in improving retention Why the first-visit follow-up phone call remains one of the most powerful retention tools Building a wellness-based practice with long-term patient relationships How to diagnose retention problems with the same precision used in patient care Practical systems for increasing re-exams, re-signs, and wellness conversions Key Takeaway: The absence of pain does not equal the presence of health. The most successful chiropractic clinics understand that patient retention is not about keeping people on a schedule—it's about helping patients understand the value of continued care, guiding them through every phase of treatment, and building systems that support long-term wellness.

Joe Kalish, chief global macro strategist at Ned Davis Research, says 2026 has had surprising narratives but unsurprisingly solid results, and he expects that to continue, without significant recession risk or big trouble ahead. Kalish discusses often overlooked economic numbers, like a financing gap where demands to fund capital expenditures outstrip available capital and the level of real gross value added for non-financial corporations (essentially, GDP for things other than financial companies), to explain how and why this economy looks healthier than the worrywarts think it is. He does outline his concerns, but thinks the economy can overpower most or all of them in fairly short order. David Trainer, founder and president at New Constructs, says that the new wave of huge initial public offerings like SpaceX and Anthropic puts index-fund investors in The Danger Zone, noting that indexes are considering changing rules to quickly accommodate the new stocks, which creates artificial demand that will further drive the prices of the stocks up. That creates potential for index investors to effectively be overpaying to get into the IPOs, and also leaves them vulnerable if the stocks fall off after the initial excitement. While the rules changes are up in the air, Trainer says the pressure to change rules and include fresh IPOs changes the landscape for the future. In "The Week That Is," Vijay Marolia, chief investment officer at Regal Point Capital, discusses the market's message to Broadcom, which exceeded earnings expectations but failed to raise future guidance on AI-driven revenues; he says the market is punishing "sandbagging," a practice of understating expectations so that they are easy to beat, but he says the big price drop created a buying opportunity for investors. He also discussed the heightened volatility around the positive jobs report, which he says is based on the fear of a hike in interest rates that he says long-term investors should not be too worried about. Plus, he examines Bitcoin, which has lost about one-quarter of its value in less than two months, which he says is testing traders faith, but which isn't making him nervous as a long-term buy-and-holder.
9:00 HOUR: Could the Tigers ride into the Danger Zone? Stoney gets introduced to 82-0
This week, Dave, Rob, and Kurt are strapping into the cockpit to tackle Tony Scott's 1986 pop-culture juggernaut, Top Gun. Listeners can expect the trio to break down how this high-octane blend of aerial choreography, synthesizers, and pure machismo defined an era of Hollywood filmmaking. Dave will likely dive deep into the movie's legendary soundtrack—debating whether "Danger Zone" or "Take My Breath Away" reigns supreme—while Rob will undoubtedly analyze the sheer kinetic energy of the dogfights and the film's lasting impact on action cinema Meanwhile, Kurt is sure to bring his trademark humor to the table, ready to dissect the campier, heavily meme-able elements of the film, from the infamous, sweat-soaked volleyball scene to Maverick and Iceman's intense, jaw-clenching rivalry. Whether they are debating the logistics of inverted flight maneuvers or laughing about Maverick's blatant disregard for naval protocol, the guys are primed to deliver an entertaining mix of nostalgic appreciation and hilarious critique. It's bound to be a wild ride, so listeners should prepare to fire up their afterburners for an episode that promises to be nothing short of a highway to the danger zone Chapters 00:00 - Opening of show Connect with Totally 80s and 90s Recall Website: https://bleav.com/shows/totally-80s-and-90s-recall/ Email: 80s90srecall@gmail.com Voicemail: (509) 426-4542 Linktree: https://linktr.ee/80s90srecall Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.

The big story in the week ahead is expected to be the IPO of SpaceX, and Kyle Guske, investment analyst at New Constructs, says this deal is ugly right from the jump, putting the new stock in The Danger Zone before it even goes public. Guske notes that SpaceX has no earnings , a negative economic book value, a share structure that leaves virtually all control with Elon Musk, and that nearly all money raised in the launch will go to pay off prior debts. When the IPO goes through, however, there will be "this massive valuation on a company that, right now, is unprofitable," and that will have to deliver huge amounts of future growth to justify the expected market price. Vijay Marolia, chief investment officer at Regal Point Capital, discusses SpaceX too, noting it is part of a broader IPO wave that is less about great investment opportunities and more about venture capitalists cashing out while the getting is good. In "The Week That Is," Marolia also looks at Americans' growing credit-card debt load which — unlike the soft, emotional data of consumer sentiment — shows how consumers are struggling with inflation and explains how that struggle could be the thing that trips up the economy if consumers wake up and cut spending. In The Big Interview, Dominic Ceci, chief investment officer at Johnson Financial Group says that the economic growth story has "captured the hearts and minds" of investors, allowing them to keep climbing the wall of worry to get the stock market back to record highs. He says that growth picture could be changing, as artificial intelligence gets to a "prove it" phase, inflation stays higher for longer, and the impacts of War in Iran move from the potential problem of the fighting's first few days to the undeniable impacts seen only as the conflict moves past the 90-day mark.

Why do tones sometimes seem “good enough”… until they suddenly create complete chaos? In this episode, Jared and John dive into one of the trickiest realities of learning Chinese: when small tone mistakes collide with low-context situations and produce surprisingly big misunderstandings. Inspired by a real-life exchange student story in Shanghai, they share some hilarious examples of Chinese mix-ups involving pandas vs. chest hair, thesis defenses vs. poop, and one especially memorable mistake involving “receiving payment.”Beyond the laughs, this episode explores why context matters so much in Chinese, especially with names, place names, numbers, and situations where listeners don't have enough clues to infer what you mean. Jared and John also share practical strategies to reduce communication breakdowns: using written backup, giving extra context, confirming understanding, paying closer attention to “recasts,” and learning how to spot your own pronunciation errors.If you've ever been convinced you said something correctly only to get blank stares in return, this episode is for you. Mistakes are part of the process, but with a little awareness and a few smart habits, you can avoid some of the most spectacular ones.Links from the episode:Chinese Pronunciation WikiMandarin Companion Graded Readers
Earlier this month, a volcanic eruption, which sent a plume of ash some 10km into the sky, killed three people hiking up Mount Dukono in Indonesia. The tourists had climbed the mountain despite official warnings. It is the latest incident in recent years where tourists have been killed visiting an active volcano. We explore the attraction of volcanoes, as well as hearing about the extreme danger they can pose to visitors and those living nearby. “I think it's good in life to maybe do something that scares you and be humbled,” says photographer Demian in Hawaii. Plus, volcano guides share their experiences, and we speak to someone who has chosen to make his home on the slopes of an active volcano, and find out what it is i like to be a lava chaser.
