Rescue efforts are under way in Venezuela after two powerful earthquakes caused buildings to collapse and killed at least 164 people, and there are fears the death toll could rise significantly. A state of emergency has been declared by the country's interim leader, Delcy Rodríguez, who said 971 people have been injured and more casualties are expected.

If there was ever a contending team that needed a very specific thing, it would be the Cubs' desire to find starting pitching. While Chicago did make a trade for the Mets' David Peterson, it is clear that, because of the rash of injuries to the Cubs' starting rotation, other moves need to be made. That's why the Play Tessie guys (Gordo, Pat and Sammy) are diving into the discussion, looking for answers when it comes to one of MLB's most mercurial clubs.

Activist judges who want illegals to vote continue to block the Trump administration's efforts to clean America's voter rolls. The Supreme Court delivers at least one victory by agreeing with Trump that green card holders who break our laws and travel abroad can be deported when they return. Desperate democrats lean in to court packing and abolishing the electoral college. And the curious case of Bob Costas who not long ago called MAGA braindead and stupid but now sees the light on trannies competing as women.

That sounds creepier than it is, but it IS pathetic to watch congressman Ro Khanna desperately try to goad Elon Musk into paying attention to him by alleging the deaths of millions of kids are on Elon's hands. Why is Ro so craven for the attention? MLB backtracks real fast on its admonishment of players who don't want to wear rainbows but prefer scripture instead. How bulletproof are Joe Biden's pardons? Plus Mitch McConnell is back in the hospital and should be respectfully removed from Congress.   

Episode 4 propels us into a chaotic twelve-year period from 1937 to 1949, where the Noss family's dream of extracting the Victoria Peak treasure begins to violently unravel. Based entirely on the exhaustive, decades-long research of investigative author John Clarence (the pen name of Jack Staley), this episode details how the formidable obstacles of World War II, a sprawling military expansion, and Milton "Doc" Noss's own personal demons collided to seal the mountain's riches tighter than a government vault.Desperate for capital following the devastating 1939 shaft collapse, Doc formed the Cheyenne Mining Company, unknowingly appointing a venomous Secret Service informant named Merl Horesman to his inner circle. Matters worsened in November 1940 when a second reckless dynamite charge triggered a massive landslide, completely entombing the gold. As the Noss workforce marched off to fight in WWII, the U.S. Army swallowed up the desolate Hembrillo Basin to create the White Sands Proving Ground. In a truly surreal moment of history, Doc and Ova Noss found themselves barred from their own claim by soldiers just in time to witness the Trinity atomic blast on July 16, 1945—literally standing as spectators at the dawn of the nuclear age while their treasure slipped into military hands.Fearing imminent government confiscation, a deeply paranoid Doc scattered 110 gold bars—weighing roughly 4,000 pounds—across over a dozen secret desert caches. Drifting and desperate, he partnered with a Texas businessman named Charlie Ryan in late 1948. Together, they concocted an elaborate scheme to smuggle the bullion into Old Mexico aboard a surplus DC-3 aircraft, even clearing a secret runway under the guise of a lead and silver mining operation. But the joint venture quickly turned lethal when Doc overheard Ryan plotting to double-cross him and fly the fortune out alone.Tune in to hear how this treacherous web of betrayal set the stage for a frantic, midnight race to dig up and re-hide the gold, leading Doc directly toward a deadly confrontation. And remember, if you want to read the definitive account of this incredible saga, you can secure a rare, signed copy of John Clarence's Gold House trilogy by contacting Jeff Crudele directly at podcastjfk@gmail.com.

Baron von Steuben and the Strategic Overhaul at Valley Forge. Guest: Professor Richard Bell. Baron von Steuben, a Prussian officer, arrived at Valley Forge during the harsh winter of 1777–1778, desperate for a career after being forced out of the Prussian military. Though he arrived in a brilliant uniform, he was essentially a "soldier of fortune" hired by Benjamin Franklin and Silas Deane to instill order and discipline in the ragtag Continental Army. Washington's decision to hire him proved to be one of his best strategic moves, transforming the army's combat readiness. Steuben's presence highlights the Revolution as a global event where foreign professionals contributed expertise for various personal and strategic reasons. 11919 VERSAILLES

Following the monumental discovery detailed in our last episode, Episode 3 plunges deep into the treacherous caverns of Victoria Peak. Based entirely on the exhaustive, decades-long research of investigative author John Clarence (the pen name of Jack Staley), this episode chronicles the perilous efforts of Milton "Doc" and Ova Noss to extract their newfound fortune—and the intense paranoia that soon consumed them.Navigating broken ancient ladders and toxic, blistering bat guano, Doc slowly retrieved the first pieces of the horde in the spring of 1938. What he found was staggering: crude gold "cactus" bars piled like cordwood, a gold crown, ancient artifacts, and the chilling remains of chained human skeletons. But with unimaginable wealth came immediate danger. Rumors of the discovery triggered kidnapping threats that forced the family to temporarily flee to Gallup, New Mexico. Doc's extreme caution reached a fever pitch, fueled by the trauma of a prior kidnapping where his captors had savagely burned the bottoms of his feet attempting to extract the location of another gold cache.The situation turned catastrophic in 1939 with two devastating blows. In August, a hired engineer set off an excessive dynamite charge, causing a massive landslide that sealed the main treasure shaft under tons of rock. Desperate for capital to clear the debris, Doc took a massive gamble in the fall of 1939 by taking four or five gold bars to the Denver Mint. Though the bars were officially assayed at $97,000, the Mint confiscated the bullion and issued a "hold certificate," refusing to pay Doc unless he revealed the exact location of the remaining treasure.This brazen confiscation confirmed Doc's deepest fears that the federal government intended to seize his entire fortune. It thrust the Noss family into a perilous legal war against the Gold Reserve Act of 1934 and drew relentless, around-the-clock surveillance from both the Secret Service and the FBI. Tune in to hear how the dream of Victoria Peak quickly devolved into a nightmare of dynamite, deception, and government overreach.

Most men think their relationship problems come from anger, communication issues, or simply choosing the wrong partner. So they tell themselves: "I just need to work on my reactions." "I need to find someone who understands me." "I'm trying my best." But underneath those struggles is often a much deeper story. A story that quietly whispers: "There's something wrong with me." "I'm too broken to be loved." "I'll never be enough." And every time conflict appears… every time someone they love expresses disappointment… that story takes over. In this episode, David sits down with John to explore the powerful transformation that unfolded through his coaching journey—from self-sabotage, emotional reactivity, and shame to self-worth, connection, and presence. John shares how, despite appearing capable and successful on the outside, intimate relationships repeatedly exposed a painful belief he carried for years: That he was fundamentally unlovable. He explains how even small moments of criticism or conflict would trigger overwhelming emotional reactions. Defensiveness. Anger. People-pleasing. Withdrawal. Self-sabotage. Not because he wanted to hurt the people he loved. But because every challenge in a relationship seemed to confirm the story that something was wrong with him. And eventually, that story began damaging the very relationships he cared about most. The hardest part? He didn't know how to stop it. When his partner finally asked him to leave, he found himself at a breaking point. Desperate. Heartbroken. Terrified of losing everything. That moment became the beginning of a completely different path. In this conversation, David and John explore how low self-worth shapes relationships, why emotional reactions often mask deeper wounds, and what begins to change when men stop fighting themselves and start building trust from within. John also shares the profound impact this work has had on his marriage, his relationship with his children, and his journey toward becoming the father and partner he always wanted to be. This isn't a conversation about becoming perfect. It's about discovering that healing doesn't come from fixing yourself. It comes from letting go of the belief that you were broken in the first place. If you've ever felt unlovable, struggled with emotional reactivity, sabotaged relationships you deeply cared about, or wondered whether lasting change is truly possible—this episode may show you what can happen when you finally begin to believe that you are enough.   RELATE:

In today's lesson we meet the Roman official whose son is terminally ill. Desperate, the man asks Jesus to heal his boy but is instead softly rebuked by Jesus. The official's faith was shallow and was dependent on witnessing Jesus perform a miracle. But Jesus asks us to have a deeper faith than that. As we study this encounter, we can take away four lessons learned from the Roman official and his encounter with Christ.

Welcome to my latest coffee chat  -  First up - Blake Lively probably won't get a damn dime from Justin Baldoni (even though she is still trying to) so thank and praise the LORD. Now she just has to go away and leave Justin Baldoni and all of us alone.  Next, Meghan Markle recently "rebranded" her "As ever" website, but to me it's the same old tired stuff she has already peddled to us, with just a new focus on her. I'm sorry, but I just can't get excited about it.  In this video, I give Meghan some free and unsolicited tips to save her faltering and uninspired brand. She won't listen to me, but that's beside the point.  Also, Meghan is STILL showing us the back of her kid's heads - this time at Disneyland.  It is creepy and I don't like it. For several reasons.  Harry is finding himself in HOT WATER and scandalous accusations regarding Invictus Games and alleged financial mismanagement are swirling- (it's bad.) The future doesn't look too good for the "Duke of Delusion." Lastly, I will share some of my BEST hair care tips and my favorite products that have really helped my recently highlighted, blonde hair feel healthy, soft and shiny at 52!

Is STARMER Toast?

Have you ever felt unseen, forgotten, or lost in the crowd? In Mark 5, we encounter a woman who suffered for 12 years—physically, emotionally, and relationally. Desperate for hope, she pushed through the crowd to reach Jesus. What happened next reveals a powerful truth: Jesus doesn't just see crowds—He sees individuals. In this message, we explore how Jesus notices the overlooked, restores the broken, and invites us out of hiding and into healing. If you've been carrying shame, struggling in silence, or wondering if God sees your pain, this message is for you.

You had a discovery call that felt great. Real connection, good conversation, they seemed ready to move forward. You sent the link to sign up and then... crickets. A week goes by. Then two. You tell yourself they must have changed their mind, found someone else, or decided coaching wasn't for them. So you move on. But here's the thing — you might be completely wrong. And the follow-up you're not doing could be costing you clients. That said, not every lead is worth chasing. Sometimes the reason they didn't sign up is because they're not actually a good fit — and deep down, you know it. This episode is about how to follow up with intention, how to know when it's worth pursuing, and how to let go when it's not. This is part three of our five-part series, "The Conversations That Build Coaching Businesses." We're talking about the conversation most coaches skip — and the discernment most coaches don't practice. In this episode, I cover: Why "not right now" feels like rejection (and why it usually isn't about you) The gut check: how to know if this person is actually worth following up with Questions to ask yourself before you chase a lead — are you excited to work with them, or just chasing revenue? What "not right now" actually means — and the difference between "not yet" and "not ever" How to respond in the moment when they say "I need to think about it," "The timing isn't right," or "I can't afford it" The powerful question that can change everything The follow-up that keeps the door open (without being pushy) How to stay connected over the long haul with warm leads When it's time to let go — and how to do it gracefully The mindset shift from rejection to discernment Series episodes: Episode 89: How to Get More Coaching Clients Through Referrals (Without Feeling Salesy) Episode 90: How to Network as a Coach (Even If You Hate Networking) Episode 92: How to Follow Up After a Discovery Call That Didn't Convert (Without Feeling Salesy or Desperate) ← You are here Episode 93: The Price Conversation Episode 94: The Difficult Client Conversation Resources & Links: Get Clients Now FREE Masterclass Business Building Support — anytime The Confident Coaching Skills Intensive — now available self-guided Get It Done: Private Coaching with Wendy

After years of alienating working-class voters, Democrats are suddenly trying to rebrand themselves as champions of Main Street with candidates like James Talarico and Graham Platner. From carefully crafted campaign images to handpicked candidates marketed as authentic, the party is betting voters will forget its record.  But can political theater overcome years of rhetoric and policies that pushed millions of working Americans away? The latest attempts to win back the white working class may reveal more about Democrat elites than the voters they're trying to persuade.

Noah and John sit down with Nadia Bartolucci of Douglas Elliman — leader of the #1 sales team in Brooklyn, a top 10 Elliman team nationwide, and a Wall Street Journal Top 250 team with nearly $1B in sales. This one is all about Brooklyn: luxury, inventory, bidding wars, boutique new development, and why the borough has officially become a destination in its own right.

Boomer, Pinder and Rhett are joined by TSN's Jamie McLennan to react to the increasingly chaotic Mike Babcock situation in Edmonton. Just when it looked like the Oilers were moving closer to hiring Babcock as their next head coach, reports surfaced that the NHLPA is pushing for a full investigation into his past conduct before signing off on any return to the league. The guys discuss why this story continues to grow, what the latest reports could mean for Edmonton's coaching search, and whether the Oilers underestimated the backlash that would come with pursuing Babcock in the first place. Noodles weighs in on the controversy, the league's decision to investigate, and whether a coach with Babcock's history should be getting another opportunity behind an NHL bench. Is this a reasonable step by the NHLPA, or is Edmonton's pursuit of Babcock already dead in the water? Let us know what you think in the comments.Video Link: https://youtu.be/8Hlb4g-K4Xo#nhl #nhlshorts #nhlplayoffs #nhlpredictions #nhlhockey #nhlpicks #stanleycup #stanleycupfinal #edmontonoilers CHECK OUT OUR STUFF ⬇️BARN BURNER MERCHhttps://nationgear.ca/collections/shirts/FlamesnationBARN BURNER SHORTS https://youtube.com/playlist?list=PLj_bcGtvvo-cW2DHEDZ6dEO5ePDmlhZc9&si=jo8iNGxT4ImhS2Y8

Title: Boos, Ballots, Bailouts, and Buffoonery: The Desperate Gasp of a Crumbling Ego Hosts: Doug Pagitt and Robb Ryerse Listen Time: 42 minutes of pure, unvarnished reality Summary: The wheels aren't just coming off the MAGA wagon—they've bounced down the highway and caused a ten-car pileup. This week, Doug and Robb take a front-row seat to the latest, loudest public meltdown of Donald Trump, and honestly? It's a trainwreck you can't look away from. First up, the guys dissect the absolute embarrassment of his recent press interview. Watching Trump completely lose his mind under standard, baseline journalistic scrutiny wasn't just bad politics; it was a masterclass in fragile panic. It turns out that when you can't hand-pick the reporters or script the questions, actual accountability is a totally undefeated opponent. Then, we're heading to Madison Square Garden—because nothing says "man of the people" quite like getting thoroughly booed out of a Knicks game. What happens when a man who survives entirely on heavily curated, ego-stroking rallies steps into a real-world sports arena? A thunderous, highly localized reality check. We unpack that beautiful, unfiltered chorus of boos and why everyday Americans are completely done buying the snake oil. Finally, Doug and Robb tackle the exhausting, broken-record delusion of "stolen elections." We contrast his desperate, fictional grievances with the very real, unbelievably wasteful legacy of his time in office. Is the movement facing an irreversible decline, or are we just watching a cornered political grift double down on pure chaos? Join us for a candid, faith-rooted, and delightfully savage conversation about truth, accountability, and actual common sense. What We're Dragging This Week:  * The Interview Meltdown: Why a simple Q&A sent the fragile former guy into an absolute tailspin.  * The Garden Variety Rejection: Breaking down the Knicks game chorus of boos. Spoiler alert: regular people don't do fake.  * The "Stolen" Delusion: Deconstructing the pathetic rerun of false election claims that absolutely everyone outside of his echo chamber is tired of hearing.  * The Receipts on Waste: A look at the staggering, self-serving wastefulness of a leader who treated the public trust like a personal piggy bank.

  ABOUT AVENGERS: INFINITY WAR The Avengers and their allies must be willing to sacrifice all in an attempt to defeat the powerful Thanos before his blitz of devastation and ruin puts an end to the universe. AIR DATE & NETWORK FOR AVENGERS: INFINITY WAR April 27, 2018 | Theatrical Release CAST & CREW OF AVENGERS: INFINITY WAR Directors: Anthony Russo, Joe Russo Writers: Christopher Markus, Stephen McFeely, Stan Lee Cast: Robert Downey Jr. as Tony Stark/Iron Man Chris Hemsworth as Thor Mark Ruffalo as Bruce Banner/The Hulk Chris Evans as Steve Rogers/Captain America Scarlett Johansson as Natasha Romanoff/Black Widow Don Cheadle as James Rhodes/War Machine Benedict Cumberbatch as Doctor Strange Tom Holland as Peter Parker/Spider-Man Chadwick Boseman as T'Challa/Black Panther Zoe Saldaña as Gamora Karen Gillan as Nebula Tom Hiddleston as Loki Paul Bettany as Vision Elizabeth Olsen as Wanda Maximoff/Scarlet Witch Anthony Mackie as Sam Wilson/Falcon Sebastian Stan as Bucky Barnes/Winter Soldier BRAN'S MOVIE SYNOPSIS So, they get right to it. Bad boy Thanos gets an infinity stone, the Power Stone. His play is to get all six Infinity Stones and wipe out half of all life in the universe.  His first stop is the ship carrying the surviving people of Asgard. Thanos easily overwhelms the remaining Asgardians, beats up Hulk, and steals the Space Stone from Loki's Tesseract. He then kills Loki. Thanos then destroys the ship and continues his hunt. Edris Elba helps make sure that Hulk returns to earth, where he crashes through the New York Sanctum. Back as Bruce, He warns Doctor Stephen Strange and Wong that Thanos is coming.  Tony Stark joins the conversation. Before he can call Steve Rogers to get the band back together, they attack the city to claim the Time Stone from Strange. Spider-Man is pulled into the chaos, and after they captures Strange aboard his spaceship, Stark and Peter Parker secretly hitch a ride into space to rescue him while Wong remains behind to defend the Sanctum. Meanwhile, the Guardians of the Galaxy answer a distress signal and save Thor floating in space. They agree they need to work together to stop Thanos. But they're too late. Thanos already possesses the Reality Stone and uses its power to manipulate everything around them. He captures Gamora after learning she knows the location of the Soul Stone. Desperate to save her adopted sister Nebula from torture, Gamora tells him where the stone is .  When they get there, the keeper of the Soul Stone, one Red Skull, reveals the price required to obtain it: the sacrifice of someone truly loved. In one of the film's most tragic moments, Thanos throws Gamora to her death, earning the Soul Stone. Vision and Wanda are ambushed in Scotland by Proxima Midnight and Corvus Glaive, who attempt to rip the Mind Stone from Vision's forehead. Captain America, Black Widow, and Falcon arrive just in time to save them, bringing the wounded Vision back to the Avengers Compound. Vision urges Wanda to destroy the Mind Stone and kill him if necessary to stop Thanos, but she cannot bring herself to do it. Instead, the team heads to Wakanda, believing Shuri may be able to safely remove the stone without sacrificing Vision's life. Iron Man, Spider-Man, and Doctor Strange end up on Titan and come face to face with Star-Lord, Drax, and Mantis and they realize they're in the same team.  Using the Time Stone, Strange studies millions of possible futures and discovers only one path where they succeed. Together they execute an elaborate plan to restrain Thanos and remove the Infinity Gauntlet. For a moment, it almost works—until Nebula reveals that Gamora is dead. Overcome with grief and rage, Star-Lord attacks Thanos, ruining the team's hold on him. Thanos breaks free, defeats everyone, and nearly kills Iron Man. To save Tony's life, Doctor Strange willingly surrenders the Time Stone, despite knowing how dangerous it is. In Wakanda, the Avengers prepare for an all-out invasion from Thanos's army. Bruce Banner, unable to transform into Hulk, enters battle wearing the Hulkbuster armor. The tide finally turns when Thor arrives in spectacular fashion alongside Rocket and Groot, tearing through Thanos's army with his fresh new hammer/ax combo, Stormbreaker. Despite their efforts, Thanos himself eventually reaches Vision. Wanda heartbreakingly destroys the Mind Stone—and Vision with it—just before Thanos can claim it. But using the Time Stone, Thanos reverses time, restores Vision briefly to life, and violently tears the stone from his forehead, killing him again. With all six Infinity Stones finally united, the Infinity Gauntlet is complete. Thor attacks and buries Stormbreaker deep into Thanos's chest, but Thanos coldly tells him he “should have gone for the head.” He snaps his fingers and vanishes. Across the universe, half of all life immediately turns to dust. Bucky Barnes, Black Panther, Groot, Scarlet Witch, Falcon, Doctor Strange, Spider-Man, Star-Lord, Drax, and Mantis all fade away. On Earth, Nick Fury manages to send a desperate signal from a mysterious pager moments before he too disappears. The survivors are left shattered and defeated. Tony Stark and Nebula are stranded on Titan. The remaining Avengers stand in stunned silence in Wakanda. And somewhere far away, Thanos sits alone on a quiet planet, watching the sunrise over a universe he believes he has finally “saved.” Watch the show on Youtube - www.deckthehallmark.com/youtubeInterested in advertising on the show?
