Shoot us a Text.Episode #1254: GM takes a multibillion-dollar EV hit but says 2026 looks brighter, white-hat hackers cash in by cracking EV chargers and infotainment systems, and the airline industry gets its annual report cardGeneral Motors closed 2025 with a wider quarterly loss after taking billions in EV and China-related charges. But underneath the headline number, core profits held up, cash flowed in North America, and GM is signaling confidence that 2026 will be stronger.GM reported a $3.3B Q4 net loss after booking more than $7B in charges, largely tied to cutting back EV production and restructuring its China joint venture.Adjusted EBIT rose 13% in the quarter, and GM earned $10.5B in North America for the year, resulting in profit-sharing bonuses up to $10,500 for UAW workers.EV losses are projected to improve by $1B–$1.5B in 2026CEO Mary Barra told shareholders the company sees stability ahead: “We expect the U.S. new vehicle market will continue to be resilient… 2026 should be an even better year for GM.”From EV chargers to infotainment systems, the Pwn2Own Automotive 2025 competition exposed how much of the industry is still very hackable.Hackers earned $886,250 uncovering nearly 50 zero-day vulnerabilities in EV chargers, infotainment systems, and automotive softwareInfotainment systems from Kenwood, Sony, and Alpine were successfully exploited, along with chargers from ChargePoint, Autel, Ubiquiti, Phoenix Contact, WolfBox, and Tesla.Tesla Wall Connectors alone accounted for more than $140,000 in payouts, while the overall winning team, Summoning Team, took home $222,250.Notably, no one attempted to hack a Tesla vehicle, despite a car and large cash prizes on the table.If 2025 felt like a rough year to fly, you're not wrong. But turbulence hit everyone. What separated airlines wasn't the chaos—it was execution. The Wall Street Journal's airline scorecard crowns a new winner and reshuffles the pecking order.(Worst → Best): Frontier (T-last), American (T-last), JetBlue (7th), United (6th), Spirit (5th), Alaska (4th), Delta (3rd), Allegiant (2nd), Southwest (1st).Southwest wins for the first time since 2020, ending Delta's four-year streak with strong all-around operations and industry-low complaints.Explaining Southwest's edge, COO Andrew Watterson said the airline avoids the “easy” option when things go sideways: “It's very easy to cancel a flight. That's the path of least resistance.”This episode of the Automotive State of the Union is brought to you by Amazon Autos: Meet customers where tJoin Paul J Daly and Kyle Mountsier every morning for the Automotive State of the Union podcast as they connect the dots across car dealerships, retail trends, emerging tech like AI, and cultural shifts—bringing clarity, speed, and people-first insight to automotive leaders navigating a rapidly changing industry.Get the Daily Push Back email at https://www.asotu.com/ JOIN the conversation on LinkedIn at: https://www.linkedin.com/company/asotu/

In this episode, James and Mark are joined by Matt Chouinard, Waterfowl Programs Director for Delta Waterfowl, for an in-depth discussion on current prairie wetland and grassland conditions. They explore how recent weather patterns and agricultural pressures are shaping duck nesting success across the Prairie Pothole Region. Matt shares insights on the critical role of habitat for both nesting and brood-rearing, the value of conservation programs like CRP, and the importance of additional management strategies—including Delta's innovative Hen House program. The conversation also dives into the psychology of duck hunters, public perceptions of population trends, and the data-driven science behind conservation decisions. From habitat loss to hunter memories, this episode unpacks the complex relationships among agriculture, wetlands, waterfowl populations, and hunting success—highlighting why sustaining prairie ecosystems is essential for the future of waterfowl conservation.

Send me a DM here (it doesn't let me respond), OR email me: imagineabetterworld2020@gmail.comToday I'm honored to have back on the show once again: Satanic ritual abuse, mind control, Stargate Project, Freemason, Jesuit, and organized abuse survivor, overcomer and whistleblower, loving mother, content creator, faithful servant to the most high, former school teacher, gardener, floral design extraordinaire, singer and songwriter, poet, poetry and creative writer, and someone I'm so grateful to call my friend: Kadaya Kaday was born into chains most people cannot even imagine - multi-generational webs of satanic ritual abuse, MK-ULTRA and MONARCH mind control, Freemasonic and Jesuit orchestrated ritual abuse, human trafficking, and deliberate soul-shattering trauma from infancy, perhaps even in utero. Programmed by her father - a 33rd-degree Freemason neurologist who turned the study of the brain into an instrument of enslavement - she was molded to serve darkness while her front personality lived what appeared to be and felt like an ordinary, happy, Christian childhood in Canada. Yet beneath the surface laid horrors beyond comprehension - and a silent scream wired into her nervous system so that pain could never find a voice.When memories began to surface in her twenties, she was met with disbelief, gaslighting, betrayal, and the full cult playbook: DARVO, ostracism, weaponization of her own children, financial strangulation, a fraudulent protective order, and exile across an international border with nothing but the clothes on her back.Her husband filed for divorce citing “delusional beliefs.” Family, friends, pastors, and authorities turned away or actively participated in her silencing. She lost her home, her livelihood as a public-school teacher, her safety, and - most agonizingly - daily access to her two beloved children, now used as collateral to punish her refusal to stay silent. But the enemy miscalculated.In the crucible of total loss, Kadaya met the only One more powerful than the programming or programmers: Yah, the Most High, the God of Israel, the Father who sees every hidden thing and whose word is sharper than any double-edged sword. Through raw, honest wrestling - she chose obedience over fear. She repented for generational sins she never chose, fasted and prayed, wrote the sins of her bloodline on a closet wall, and watched spiritual strongholds crack.On today's episode, Kadaya will be sharing ground-breaking information related to current national and global events, Nazi programming in the US and how these events relate to her personal experiences and and the current and upcoming DELTA activations, Sascha Riley, ICE, Donald Trump, the duality of politics and politicians, body memories and abreactions, and so much more.

If you've ever screamed “JUST TELL US HOW MUCH SNOW” at your TV, congratulations — you're already emotionally prepared for today's daily podcast. Wait til you see the parenting challenges this guy admits to.On this episode of The Rizzuto Show, the crew spirals over wildly inconsistent snowfall predictions, Arctic wind chills, and the terrifying revelation that trees can literally explode when it gets too cold. Add in travel anxiety, Southern Illinois party drama, and weather forecasters refusing to “put their hogs on the table,” and we're already off the rails before the first hour.Then things get weirder.We break down a cemetery crime spree involving stolen bronze vases (bad luck speedrun), a Delta flight that soaked a passenger with de-icing fluid (new fear unlocked), and a love triangle that somehow involves one woman, two identical twins, and a brand-new boundary known as “the brother line.”As if that wasn't enough, we dive into a fertility clinic horror story where a couple gives birth to a baby that isn't genetically theirs — raising questions no one is emotionally equipped to answer at 7 a.m. And finally, we unpack an internet confession so uncomfortable, so oddly delivered, and so comment-section-fueled that it instantly joins the Rizz Show Hall of Fame.This daily podcast has everything: weather panic, a revisit to the great paper plate debate, cursed news, and the kind of conversations that make you say, “I should not have heard this… but I'm glad I did.” It's messy, it's hilarious, and it's exactly why the Rizz Show daily podcast exists.

Dicen que dos cabezas piensan mejor que una, pero en la industria del automóvil, a veces dos cabezas solo sirven para darse cabezazos. Existen frases muy manidas como “la unión hace la fuerza”, pero la historia nos demuestra que, en ocasiones, ocurre justo lo contrario: la unión no suma, resta. Hoy analizamos 10 ejemplos de colaboraciones fallidas, "Frankensteins" mecánicos y millones de euros tirados a la basura en proyectos que nunca debieron existir. 1. Cisitalia-Porsche Type 360 (1947): La genialidad maldita Esta historia comienza en una cárcel francesa, donde Ferdinand Porsche y Anton Piëch estaban presos tras la guerra. Piero Dusio, fundador de Cisitalia, pagó una fortuna por un diseño de Porsche para financiar su fianza. El resultado fue el Type 360, una locura técnica adelantada 20 años a su tiempo: motor central de 12 cilindros, doble compresor y tracción total conectable. 2. Maserati Quattroporte II (1974): La limusina lenta Bajo el paraguas de Citroën, Maserati intentó crear una berlina de lujo. El error fue partir del chasis del Citroën SM y usar su motor V6 de tracción delantera. El resultado fue una herejía: un Maserati de tracción delantera con menos de 200 CV para mover dos toneladas. Era lento y complicadísimo de reparar. Tras la quiebra de Citroën, Peugeot mandó destruir casi todas las unidades. Solo sobrevivieron 13. 3. Saab-Lancia 600 (1980): El vikingo friolero Saab necesitaba un coche nuevo y Lancia tenía el Delta. Decidieron vender el Delta en Suecia con el logo de Saab, prometiendo "temperamento latino y calidad sueca". Fue un desastre. El acero italiano de la época se oxidaba con la sal de las carreteras suecas y la calefacción no estaba pensada para el clima ártico. Además, la electrónica italiana enloquecía con la humedad escandinava. Casi arruina la reputación de Saab. 4. Alfa Romeo Arna (1983): El mundo al revés La lógica dictaba unir la fiabilidad japonesa con el diseño italiano. Pero hicieron lo contrario: usaron la carrocería del soso Nissan Cherry y le metieron la mecánica y electrónica caprichosa del Alfasud. Para colmo, las carrocerías se fabricaban en Japón y se enviaban a Nápoles para ser ensambladas por mano de obra sin experiencia. El coche era feo y se rompía constantemente. 5. Cadillac Allanté (1987): El puente aéreo más caro GM quería un rival para el Mercedes SL y contrató a Pininfarina. El problema fue logístico: Pininfarina fabricaba las carrocerías en Turín y las enviaban a Detroit en aviones Boeing 747 modificados (56 carrocerías por vuelo). Esta locura, conocida como el "Puente Aéreo Allanté", encareció el coche hasta los 54.000 dólares. Aunque no era mal coche, el Mercedes llegaba en barco, era mejor y más barato. 6. Chrysler TC by Maserati (1989): Un pacto de amigos Lee Iacocca y Alejandro de Tomaso decidieron colaborar. Usaron la plataforma del humilde Dodge Daytona, enviaron las piezas a Milán y Maserati las ensambló con cuero caro. El resultado costaba 33.000 dólares pero parecía un Chrysler LeBaron de 12.000. Fue un fracaso económico monumental que costó a Chrysler más de 600 millones de dólares. 7. Honda Crossroad (1993): Cuando Honda pierde aceite En plena fiebre SUV, Honda no tenía un todoterreno. Su solución fue traer el Land Rover Discovery, ponerle la "H" de Honda y llamarlo Crossroad. No cambiaron nada más. El choque cultural fue brutal: los clientes japoneses, acostumbrados a la fiabilidad absoluta, se encontraron con un coche inglés que dejaba manchas de aceite y tenía fallos eléctricos. Honda tuvo que recomprarlos y pedir perdón. 8. Cadillac Catera (1997): El pato que hacía Zig Cadillac intentó rejuvenecer su imagen importando el Opel Omega alemán a EE. UU. El coche no estaba mal, pero el marketing fue atroz. Usaron el eslogan "The Caddy that Zigs" y una mascota: un pato de dibujos animados. Nadie entendió qué hacía un Opel con un pato en un concesionario de lujo. Además, sufría problemas de fiabilidad y sobrepeso. 9. Aston Martin Cygnet (2011): La trampa legal Para cumplir con las normativas de emisiones europeas, Aston Martin cogió el pequeño Toyota iQ, le puso una parrilla propia, forró el interior de cuero y lo vendió por casi 40.000 euros (el triple que el Toyota). Mecánicamente era idéntico (98 CV). Fue una maniobra cínica para bajar la media de emisiones de la marca, aunque hoy son piezas de colección por su rareza. 10. Mercedes-Benz Clase X (2017): La estrella estrellada Mercedes quiso entrar en el mercado de las Pick-up usando la base de la Nissan Navara. Le cambiaron el frontal y el interior, pero la gente se dio cuenta de que era una Nissan con sobreprecio. Nadie quiso pagar el "impuesto de la estrella" por una herramienta de trabajo japonesa disfrazada. La producción se canceló apenas dos años después de su lanzamiento.
More snow. More cold. Repeat. After shoveling a bit yesterday when I got home from work, it decided to snow some more in the afternoon and now I've got to shovel again today when I get out of here. In the news this morning, a Delta flight had to return to the gate after de-icing fluid leaked into the plane and soaked a passenger, a man is accused of posing as an ICE agent & breaking into someone's home, WinterFest in Green Bay is canceled because of winter, and a list of things Goodwill won't take. In sports, the Bucks lost to the Thunder last night, the Badger men's basketball team plays tonight against Penn State, the Brewers traded Freddy Peralta to the Mets, a look at this weekend's AFC & NFC Conference Championship games, and the 49ers are putting on their tinfoil hats! It's "National Hot Sauce Day", and it's also Hypothetical Thursday. Jean's question for Brian was: "Would you rather freeze to death or burn to death?" And Brian's question for Jean was: "Do you believe in heaven & hell and what do you think they look like?" Elsewhere in sports, a rundown of this Saturday's UFC 324 card, former sideline reporter Michele Tafoya is running for Senate in Minnesota, and a 4 year-old girl is getting death threats because of her NFL picks on social media. We talked about what's on TV today/tonight and we also discussed Bret Michaels' response to the claim that he wanted 600% more money than the rest of Poison for a possible 40th Anniversary tour. Plus, the Super Bowl is only a few weeks away and they are already filming & leaking some of the ads you're going to see during the game. A couple of things are trending right now, including "house burping"…which is just opening the doors & windows throughout the year & getting some fresh air inside…and "Whimsy"…which is people trying to be more carefree in 2026. Great story about a cook at Texas Roadhouse who helped save a couple from a car wreck and just received an incredible reward for his heroics! Plus, another story about a dog that was missing who's now been reunited with his original owner. Office Cora also joined us this morning to talk about what she's up to this weekend in the 715. And in today's edition of "Bad News with Happy Music", we had stories about a man in NH who's accused of breaking into people's residences and pouring queso on their furniture, a #FloridaMan who tried stealing a bunch of wine & steaks by shoving them down his pants, a female prison guard who was banging an inmate and attempting to sneak drugs into the lock-up, and a dude who shut off his heat in his apartment to save money & ended up with an ice castle instead.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

He shares why profit maximization may be working against travel companies and how group travel may be one of the keys to making travel more affordable to the middle class. Plus, we have news about Delta’s growing premium sector and a Hot Minute about why you must clarify your core values in 2026. Insights from Rafat Ali Rafat had lots of insight about why travel got so expensive in the past few years — and why that trend is probably unsustainable. Here's what she had to say about how the post-pandemic travel surge is changing: “The conventional wisdom became after COVID that people have reprioritized travel over other things. We have said that 100 times. But the numbers now are showing that travel's wallet share has decreased in the last two years by four points, from 12% to 8%. And that means in the hierarchy of needs wants, travel has fallen back down to where it was before.” Plus, he had great perspectives on: Whether travel vendors have any flexibility on pricing Automation ideas that could ease labor costs in travel Destinations offering great, affordable experiences Resources Mentioned in This Episode Learn more about Skift and subscribe to the daily newsletter at skift.com.

Jared is in Delray Beach for Ticked Off Tuesday, and he's got beef with a flight attendant who's handing out headphones like she's personally been wronged by every passenger since 2003. Then the complaints roll in: a gym making adults “ask” for towels like it's elementary school, e-gift cards sent via text that vanish into the abyss, and a miserable receptionist counting someone else's DoorDash orders. Plus, a truly cinematic locker room nightmare in Toronto where stinky hockey jerseys are basically invading a listener's storage unit, and Jared has a very aggressive air freshener-based solution.Jared is on tour!
Dow Drops 700. Don't Protest Inside a Church. Oil From Venezuela Ships. Chris Pratt or Lindsey Vonn for MN Gov? Impeach Trump. Indiana an Example for America. Measles Is Back. ICE Crosses Another Line. Independent Americans host Paul Rieckhoff returns with an unfiltered conversation cutting through the turmoil of Trump's America, a Greenland crisis, and a shaken NATO to focus on a pivotal political battle: Mississippi's independent U.S. Senate candidate, Ty Pinkins. From New York to the Mississippi Delta, Rieckhoff explores how this historic campaign could disrupt Washington's balance of power—without a Democrat or Republican label. Pinkins shares what he's heard across all 82 Mississippi counties, where voters are rejecting “the same two parties saying the same things.” A Black combat veteran and Delta native, he's emerging as a serious challenge to an entrenched MAGA incumbent. He shatters the myth of “splitting the vote” in a state where Republicans have dominated for decades and argues that independents now represent the most energized political force in the country. Rieckhoff and Pinkins also connect the global stakes—from Trump's destructive foreign moves on Greenland, NATO, and Venezuela—to local crises like hospital closures, job losses, and political neglect across Mississippi. Drawing from his deployments and three-year grassroots tour, Pinkins outlines an independent message built on courage, accountability, and inclusion, aimed at uniting a multiracial, multigenerational coalition ready to redefine Mississippi—and America's—political future. Because every episode of Independent Americans with Paul Rieckhoff breaks down the most important news stories--and offers light to contrast the heat of other politics and news shows. It's independent content for independent Americans. In these trying times especially, Independent Americans is your trusted place for independent news, politics, inspiration and hope.

Meghna Maharishi talks about how United Airlines' (UAL) earnings performance will hinge on the resilience of wealthy travelers, a key demographic driving revenue for premium and international segments. The industry watches for potential domestic upside from Spirit Airlines' (SAVE) uncertain future, which could see a merger with Frontier Group Holdings (ULCC) or Chapter 7 bankruptcy. While United has historically been more optimistic than Delta Airlines (DAL), its earnings call is expected to largely align with Delta's conservative tone.======== Schwab Network ========Empowering every investor and trader, every market day.Options involve risks and are not suitable for all investors.

Two Golden Door winners walk into the studio: one has 11 summers with zero bagels, the other was on track to be a Delta pilot until a color-blindness test blew up his dream. Both went on to stack Golden Doors, build real estate portfolios, and prove that identity + mindset beat raw talent every time.In this Golden Door Podcast episode, Sam sits down with Jake West (5× Golden Door) and McKenzie Golding (2× Golden Door) from Aptive to unpack what actually changes when you go from 250K rev to 700K+ and 1,000+ accounts.You'll hear:- How Jake went from “250 is elite” to 1,000+ account summers- Why McKenzie quit door-to-door, took a 9–5, then came back and nearly tripled his best year - The Clark Kent vs Superman mental framework (who's holding the mic in your head?) - What to do after bageling your first three days so you never bagel again - The “Dr Pepper 23 flavors” of a Golden Door summer (mindset, work ethic, time, skills) - Exactly how they handle slumps, self-doubt, and bad days on the doors - Why filming your pitch and fixing tiny details (like eye contact) can 5× your results - How they use door-to-door to buy real estate and buy back their time If you're stuck at 150–300 accounts or 200–300K in revenue and Golden Door feels “unreasonable,” this conversation gives you the identity, frameworks, and habits that make big numbers inevitable.

Kelsey chats with Jen (@diveintopoints on Instagram) from Wisconsin, who lives on a hobby farm with her husband and three kids (a 6 year old daughter and 4 year old twin boys). Jen, her family, and her parents headed to San Diego in October 2025 staying at the Hyatt Regency Mission Bay, booked on points.In this episode, Jen shares about the waterslides and pools their kids couldn't get enough of, plus beach time at Mission Beach, beautiful sunset views, and their favorite moments at SeaWorld and aboard the USS Midway. Quick note: our connection dropped at the very end of recording, so Jen's answer to the final Trip Tales question is here in the show notes. If someone out there is considering this trip, what is it about San Diego and the Hyatt Regency Mission Bay that would make you say: Just Book It? I'd say just book it because you can't beat an easy trip to soak up the sunshine, slip down waterslides and enjoy a family friendly resort.

A new set of trademark filings has raised fresh questions about Six Flags' long-term portfolio strategy. An entity called Enchanted Parks Holdings, LLC—linked to Orlando-based Innovative Attraction Management (IAM)—has filed trademarks incorporating the names of several current Six Flags properties, including Michigan's Adventure, Six Flags St. Louis, Oceans of Fun, Water Safari, and Great Escape Lodge. While trademark filings alone don't confirm transactions, the scope and specificity of these names suggest preparation for potential rebranding tied to asset transfers.That context matters. Since the merger closed, Six Flags has been explicit that not every park fits its future model. Management has already disclosed that a significant portion of legacy Six Flags parks underperform financially, and impairment charges taken in 2025 reinforced that reality. Rolling debt forward earlier this month bought the company time—but at a higher fixed cost—making portfolio simplification a logical lever if margins remain tight.We discuss what this could mean in practical terms: water parks and resort-adjacent assets may be easier to separate than full theme parks; complexes like Worlds of Fun and Oceans of Fun could potentially be split; and regional operators like IAM may be assembling multi-park portfolios under unified consumer-facing brands. None of this confirms sales—but it aligns with a long-signaled strategy to slim down, reduce capital intensity, and concentrate investment on fewer, higher-performing parks.The episode also looks at parallel signals elsewhere in the industry. Delta's earnings show premium cabins overtaking main cabin revenue for the first time, reinforcing the broader shift toward bifurcated markets. And Universal's newly announced Scooby-Doo and Universal Monsters walk-through for Fan Fest Nights illustrates how IP-driven, upchargeable experiences can add revenue without long-term balance sheet exposure—an approach increasingly relevant in a higher-rate environment.Taken together, the story isn't panic or distress. It's positioning. Trademark filings don't sell parks—but they often precede decisions. And in 2026, flexibility, optionality, and capital discipline are becoming as important as growth.Listen to weekly BONUS episodes on our Patreon.

Fred from the SubArctic Alaska Sasqutch YouTube Channel shares three chilling Sasquatch encounters from the Last Frontier. A surveyor working near Tuck in the late 1980s finds himself stalked by multiple creatures while mapping remote acreage north of the Parks Highway. What begins with rock throwing and glimpses of a gray-skinned, black-eyed figure through his transit scope escalates when his entire campsite ends up mysteriously hoisted into a tree. The harassment continues as trees crash across his path and shadowy figures close in from all directions.Fred also shares Brian's harrowing experience on the Richardson Highway near Delta Junction during a winter trip to help a friend with a broken-down snow machine. A black figure spotted on the snow leads to a terrifying pursuit through waist-deep powder, complete with a screaming creature and a truck that almost fails to start.The episode closes with Clint's snow machining trip near Paxton at the start of the Denali Highway, where a massive white Sasquatch with dark roots showing through its fur leaves enormous tracks in the snow. One witness ends up pinned under an 800 RMK snow machine, when his buddy drops the machine and runs.Check Out SubArctic Alaska Sasquatch Get Our FREE NewsletterGet Brian's Books Leave Us A VoicemailVisit Our WebsiteBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/sasquatch-odyssey--4839697/support.
