Matt Cole managed a $70 billion Treasury portfolio, had direct access to the Fed and Treasury during QE, called them out for lying about debt monetization to their faces, and then put his entire net worth into Bitcoin. Now as CEO of Strive, he's building what he believes will become a multi-trillion dollar market in digital credit - products like SEDA and STRC that survived a 50% Bitcoin crash with barely a scratch. In this conversation, he breaks down why preferred equity beats convertible debt, how institutions actually want more volatility not less, why most Bitcoin treasury companies launched with no plan and are already selling, and the coming wave of consolidation that will separate the true believers from the tourists.

   Vice President Vance walked away from talks with leaders from Iran after 21 hours and the sticking point is a big one.  Iran's new leaders won't sign an agreement preventing them from making nuclear weapons.  That leads to the next step.... the U.S. will block all Iranian ports and cut off all their revenue beginning Monday morning.    Pop some corn, it's fun watching democrats tear apart the career of one of their own... former golden boy Eric Swalwell.  What a mess.    Rory McIlroy blew a six shot lead at the Masters and fell behind Cameron Young and Justin Rose on Sunday before making a comeback with a pair of timely birdies on the back nine.  And there was controversy with a past champion Sunday.    Why are the Royals off to a rough start?  How about this stat for you: Bobby Witt Jr has been on base 28 times this year and has only scored once.  Incredible.   Some people are calling for a vote to approve KCMO spending $600m for the Royals to build a new park.  I"m not one of them.  The people already voted on this by electing the officials doing it.  I debate Pete Mundo on this topic in a spirited segment.    College basketball transfers are happening so fast you can't keep track.  But it seems really strange to see all these KU players leaving.    Our Final Final is something for the cat ladies.

What does the Bible say Apostasy looks like in real life? In this episode of The Smith and Rowland Show, Alan Smith and Jeff Rowland walk through Jude 12 and 13 and talk plainly about the Marks of apostates, why they're dangerous, and how they work inside the church. This conversation gets to the heart of a hard truth. Apostasy isn't always loud or easy to spot. Sometimes it comes dressed in spiritual language, Bible talk, and promises of deeper insight. Yet Jude gives strong warning signs. He describes hidden rocks, clouds without water, fruitless trees, raging waves, and wandering stars. Smith and Rowland unpack those images and show why they still matter right now. Along the way, this episode also touches on spiritual elitism, false depth, and the danger of people who mix truth with error. That's where this message hits hard. The focus isn't on hype or religious performance. It's on Christ, the cross, and the presence of God. As Alan and Jeff explain, when people drift from the simplicity of the gospel, they become easy targets for deception. There's also plenty of the humor listeners expect from The Smith and Rowland Show, but the core message stays sharp. Apostates are predators seeking whom they may devour, and the church needs discernment. If you've ever struggled to identify false teaching, or wondered how deception spreads among sincere believers, this episode will give you a clear Bible-based framework. Watch, listen, and weigh it against Scripture. Then share it with someone who cares about truth, discernment, and the last days.

Step into Episode 207 of On The Delo as Delo sits down with Matt and Brian of Iconic Cocktails to talk about building an Arizona mixer brand over the last decade, from farmers markets and small-batch production to wholesale growth, hospitality partnerships, and a 10-year anniversary worth celebrating. What starts as a fun catch-up turns into a sharp conversation about partnership, product pivots, local sourcing, education-based selling, and what it really takes to keep a niche brand alive and growing in hospitality.​Matt and Brian break down how Iconic Cocktails evolved from an idea that once included soup and bar catering into a clean-label mixer company built around Arizona ingredients, strong local relationships, and constant customer education. They talk about building the business without a big machine behind them, producing by hand in small batches, growing through wholesale and hospitality accounts, and staying relevant as more consumers look for flavorful nonalcoholic options and more operators need something unique on their beverage menus. Along the way, Delo gets into their origin story, top-selling flavors like prickly pear and spiced honey, the new Strawberry Sage release for their 10-year anniversary, and the everyday habits that keep both founders grounded while balancing work, growth, and life.​Chapter Guide (Timestamps):​(0:00 - 4:50) Intro, 10-Year Anniversary, and How Matt and Brian First Connected​(4:51 - 8:15) Bringing on a Partner, Early Roles, and Why Working With People You Like Matters​(8:16 - 10:50) Devour, Arizona Hospitality Community, and Showing Up in Person​(10:51 - 16:10) From “Iconic Soup” to Cocktail Mixers, Education, and Small-Batch Production​(16:11 - 19:48) Distribution, Wholesale Growth, and Where to Find Iconic in Arizona​(19:49 - 24:48) Beverage Trends, Seasonal Flavors, and the Story Behind Strawberry Sage​(24:49 - 28:44) Flights, Best Sellers, 10-Year Milestones, and What Customers Love Most​(28:45 - 34:45) Daily Habits, Website Resources, Mat Facts, and Future Book Ideas​(34:46 - 42:30) Rapid Fire, Favorite Ingredients, Markets, Events, and Delo's Close​

About This EpisodeThis episode marks the return of Mythic after a year and a half — and what a place to come back from. I recorded this conversation live at Pachalegria, a retreat and healing center in Zipolite, Mexico, at the close of my first men's tantra retreat. The man who led it — and built the place — is sitting right next to me.Martin Bilodeau is a Québécois public figure, social psychologist, and bestselling author of Awaken Your Inner Buddha, A Practical Guide to Modern Tantrism and Chronicles of an Urban Buddhist (all currently available in French). His path runs through indigenous shamanism, Tibetan Buddhism, and Tantrism, with lineages from Osho, Yogi Bhajan, and Chögyam Trungpa Rinpoche. He spent half his life in India, Asia, and traveling the world before founding Pachalegria in 2020.This is Martin's first English-language podcast.What We CoverWe use Martin's framework of four spiritual emergencies as Ariadne's thread into the labyrinth — not naming all four explicitly, but tracing the arc of a life spent following the thread of awakening from Buddhism into shamanism, Tantra, and finally into the act of building a living vision on a hillside in southern Mexico.Along the way we explore:Buddhism and the Inner World. Martin discovered Buddhism at 17 through the books of Alexandra David-Néal, the first Western woman to walk into Tibet. He consecrated his twenties to practice — two hours of meditation a day, temple visits in India and Nepal, annual retreats. But the real challenge wasn't the monastery. It was bringing the Dharma into daily modern life.Bodhicitta and the Belief That Changes Everything. The teaching that cracked Martin open: compassion as a way of seeing the world, not a feeling you wait to receive. The ego sees the world as something to take from. Compassion asks what you can bring. That single reorientation — from appetite to offering — underpins everything Martin does.Why "Emergency"? Martin spent nearly 15 years managing services for homeless, addicted, and delinquent youth in Québec. What he saw confirmed it: every wound is a wound of unlove. Every act of harm is a cry for it. If all our damage is created by the absence of love, love is the only thing that will heal it. That's not romantic. It's urgent.Tantra and the Body. We've never been more disconnected from our bodies than we are now. The body is always in the present moment — it's the mind that escapes. Tantra is the path that reconnects them: through breath, sensation, movement, and the radical act of feeling rather than managing life.The Minotaur in the Labyrinth. One of the most vivid mythic images in our conversation: the Minotaur as kundalini, as primal life force — not a monster to be slain but an energy that got trapped by the engineered maze of the mind. Daedalus built the labyrinth with his head. The Minotaur didn't need to be killed. It needed to be freed. And what frees it? Ariadne's love.Shame as a Control Mechanism. We were once invocators — beings who danced, screamed, and loved their way back to the divine. Then came 2,000 years of ideology that installed shame between us and our own bodies, our own power, our own direct experience of the sacred. Capitalism inherited that structure and kept it running. The antidote isn't permission. It's sovereignty.The King and Queen Were Never Meant to Rule Alone. Every true mythology pairs masculine and feminine — active and receptive, power and love, strength and empathy. A ruler disconnected from the soul force — the virgin princess in the tower, the yin inside — becomes narcissistic and abusive. Power without love is abuse. Love without power is passivity. They were always meant to be together.Shiva-Shakti and Cocreation. The feminine-masculine dynamic isn't about gender — it's about listening before acting, being receptive to what the world is telling you before you move. Martin guides groups this way: 70% listening intuitively before he leads. The Shiva-Shakti principle is the composition of wisdom.Zipolite and the Living Dream. And then there's the place itself — the last bohemian village, a hillside above the Pacific where people have been living freely since the early 1970s. No rules, no structure, naked on the beach at night, no violence. LGBT community, hippies, artists, locals, expats, tourists — all coexisting. The New York Times writes about it every year. And into this, Martin has built a utopia. Not finished. Expanding. Buying land, building with stones so the iguanas keep their nests, preserving what's real before the commercial wave arrives.We close with Joseph Campbell's line — dreams are private myths, myths are collective dreams — and the question it raises: what is the shared dream we're missing right now? What would it look like to stop begging for meaning from the outside and start imposing a little vision on reality?This is that conversation.Chapter Timestamps0:00 Welcome Back to Mythic — Recording Live from Zipolite, Mexico01:00 Introducing Martin Bilodeau: Author, Social Psychologist, Tantric Guide02:00 Pachalegria: "I Created Boston" — On Being Recreated by a Place02:30 The Four Spiritual Emergencies as Ariadne's Thread03:00 First Emergency: Buddhism — Alexandra David-Néal and the Call of Tibet04:00 Consecrating to the Path: Two Hours of Meditation, Temple Visits, Annual Retreats05:00 Bringing the Dharma into Daily Life — The Real Challenge06:00 Bodhicitta: The Belief That Changes Everything07:00 Ego as Attachment and Aversion — vs. Compassion as a Way of Seeing08:00 "The Best Way to Feel Love Is to Love"09:00 Why It's an Emergency: 15 Years with Homeless and Addicted Youth10:00 Putting Love Back at the Center — The Heart vs. the Mind11:00 The Mind as Dissector; Love as Radical Return to Essence13:00 Om Mani Padme Hum: Compassion as the Ultimate Protection14:00 Tantra and the Body: The Body as Portal to the Present Moment16:00 We Were Never This Disconnected From Our Bodies17:00 Mexico as Sensual Reconnection — Sweat, Stone Walls, Fish from the Ocean19:00 The Tantra Workshop at Pachalegria: Movement, Community, Breath20:00 The Minotaur in the Labyrinth — Kundalini as Primal Life Force21:00 Ariadne's Love: What Guides Us Back to Our Own Power22:00 Freeing the Minotaur: The Primal Force Needs to Devour the Ego, Not the Self24:00 The Real Fear Is Not Powerlessness — It's Power25:00 Leaving the US: The Machinery of Fear and Division, Seen from the Outside26:00 Shame as a Tool of Control: From Invocators to Beggars for Salvation28:00 Capitalism Inherits the Shame Structure of Religion29:00 "Where Is the Adult?" — Outsourcing Dignity and the Crisis of Sovereignty30:00 The Father Archetype and the Dearth of Authentic Leadership31:00 The King and Queen Were Never Meant to Rule Alone — Mythology as Template32:00 The Knight and the Princess: The Soul as the Virgin in the Tower33:00 Power Without Love Is Abusive.

In the 1982 horror film *The Beast Within*, the fictional town of Nioba, Mississippi represents every nightmare about small Southern towns with buried secrets. A place where family bloodlines control justice, where monsters are created in basements and fed on human flesh, and where vengeance follows a seventeen-year cycle—the same cycle as the cicada emerging from underground. Though Nioba exists only on film, it was brought to terrifying life in the real Mississippi swamps around Jackson, Raymond, and Bolton. This is the story of a cinematic location that captures the darkest possibilities of Southern Gothic horror—and why its atmosphere of dread feels disturbingly real.   destinationterror.com   #NiobaMississippi #TheBeastWithin #DestinationTerror #SouthernGothic #HorrorMovieLocation #CicadaHorror #1980sHorror #FilmLocation #MississippiHorror #CultClassic #MovieMonsters #HorrorHistory   Destination Terror: https://www.eeriecast.com/podcasts/destination-terror Freaky Folklore: https://www.eeriecast.com/podcasts/freaky-folklore Carman's Crypt (Original Horror): https://www.carman-carrion.com/ Deadly Intent (True Crime): https://www.carman-carrion.com/   SUPPORT THE SHOW: Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/c/CarmanCarrion Buy Me a Coffee: https://buymeacoffee.com/carmancarrion   CONNECT WITH CARMAN: Website: https://www.carman-carrion.com/ YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@CarmanCarrion Twitter/X: https://x.com/CarmanCarrion Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/carmancarrion/   SUBSCRIBE & REVIEW: Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/show/6oNoUJi3M9rNlzKOzOH3Zf iTunes: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/destination-terror/id1550364606 Your support helps bring you more terrifying tales!   DISCOVER MORE HORROR: http://eeriecast.com/ https://www.carman-carrion.com/ Crypt Shop: https://the-crypt-shop-2.myshopify.com/   MUSIC CREDITS: Music and sound effects provided by: CO.AG, Myuu, Jinglepunks, Epidemic Sound, Kevin MacLeod, Dark Music, and Soundstripe.   Learn more about your ad choices.

Spring flips a switch across the UK, and we're here for the first warm light, the wisteria‑framed streets, and the rush of longer evenings. We pull together clear, local advice from London to the Lake District, the Cotswolds, Devon, and the far north of Scotland so you can plan a smarter, calmer trip.We kick off in London with Becki from Walks and Devour: cherry blossom in parks, Kew's treetop walkway, canal strolls from Hackney Wick to King's Cross, and midweek Borough Market eats. We also flag what visitors often miss - clocks moving forward on the last March weekend, Easter's shifting dates and school holidays, and the impact of big events like the Boat Race, the London Marathon, and the Chelsea Flower Show - so your itinerary stays nimble and enjoyable.From there, Asia from Mountain Goat guides us through the Lake District's daffodil heritage at Rydal and Ullswater, bluebell carpets at Rannerdale, accessible walks such as Orrest Head and Tarn Hows, and a strong local food scene that shines in spring. Lisa at Go Cotswolds leans into gardens like Hidcote and Kiftsgate, village footpaths, and the art of slowing down across 800 square miles of honey‑stone towns - now with new departures from Oxford and blended routes to Stratford‑upon‑Avon. In Devon, Alex from Unique Devon Tours paints hedgerows in bloom, Dartmoor foals, coastal colour, and narrow‑lane know‑how that turns single‑track roads into hidden‑gem gateways. And in Scotland's far north, Sally-Ann from North Coast Explorers maps coastal routes for seals and April puffins, explains variable spring weather and opening times, and shares the joy of big‑sky space before summer crowds.You'll get the best weeks to travel, how bank holidays and rail works shape movement, when tours offer the most value, and the routes that make evening light part of the plan. Ready to make the most of March, April, and May across London, the Lakes, the Cotswolds, Devon, and the North Highlands? Follow the show, share this with a spring‑bound friend, and leave a quick review to help more travellers find us.

Milfred and Hands assess the flurry of data centers being proposed across Wisconsin in communities such as Mount Pleasant, Beaver Dam, Janesville, Grant County and, until recently, DeForest. The billion-dollar projects are needed to support our phones, computers, electronic devices and artificial intelligence. But they also will consume, in many cases, more energy than the cities where they hope to locate. That risks undermining Wisconsin's goal to be carbon neutral by 2050 if the Public Service Commission approves more natural gas plants to power the centers. Our political podcasters play audio clips from the Wisconsin Policy Forum's recent forum in Milwaukee on data center development. 

Amberlee, Sarah, and Kim continue to discuss new book releases, this time with 5 titles. 

The Amazon description of Eat Your Feelings by Cristina Simmons says the book “is a story of heartbreak and restoration.” Let me tell you… that is an amazingly true description! I could not stop reading this book and had to read it straight through! I'm not going to be a spoiler, so you'll have to read the book yourself, but I can share my interview with the truly amazing author, Cristina Simmons! Cristina's story is about so much more than how she was eating her feelings, but the message that food will not fix your problems is abundantly clear throughout. What is also clear is how Cristina's faith and family love, along with some healthy doses of therapy, helped Cristina and her family through some gut-wrenching life circumstances. So many lessons in the interview and in the book! Enjoy both!The Weight Loss Winformation Podcast gives you essential psychological information to help you lose weight and more importantly, to help keep you at a healthy weight for your body!

In a deal worth $82 billion, streaming giant Netflix will eat Warner Bros., if it indeed happens. There are so many regulatory hurdles; the Writers Guild of America is not a fan of this giant merger. Will the DOJ approve this deal? Media consolidation is not good for consumers, creatives and workers, as it limits opportunities for all. Gov. Gavin Newsom is involved in a... leg-crossing scandal? Shannon Farren calls in to talk about all things NFL including the Chargers, quarterback Justin Herbert playing through injury, and Indiana football. Filmmaker Quentin Tarantino is now coming for actor Matthew Lillard. Meanwhile, in Malaysia, more than a decade after a Malaysian flight to Beijing disappeared, the search for Flight MH370 is resuming.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

In this episode of Uncommon Sense, I'm discussing my changing views on Israel, Donald Trump, and Candace Owens and why principles grounded in Scripture must always matter more than personalities.I'll discuss how easy it is to get swept up in political figures, influencers, and movements… all while forgetting that God alone is who we should be following. The devil is just like a stalker prowling around, watching, scheming, seeking someone to devour. And in these chaotic times, he's using deception, manipulation, and emotional brainwashing to pull people into confusion and ultimately into Hell.In this episode, we're talking about how the synagogue of Satan is operating openly today, pushing narratives meant to distract and divide. I am urging my listeners to stay anchored in the Word, remain spiritually alert, and refuse to be seduced by personalities, platforms, or “conservative celebrities” who very well may not be aligned with God's truth.Ultimately, we all need to return to the Bible (now more than ever) and to guard our minds and souls as the days grow darker and darker.--https://www.bible.com/

This week in the news: Paradox accepts blame for the Bloodlines 2 failure (and it totally should). Steam makes a call on banning a game that GoG has decided to sell anyway. The CEO of Roblox is totally fine with all the predators on his platform preying on children so long as it pumps up his game numbers. Yeah, he's a pretty vile dude, tbh. And what will likely be the topic of the decade (or at least the next few years): AI in gaming. Is it cool or not? Let's discuss. Oak's back and he's played the entirety of Dispatch so now he's on to a Spiderman game! Grif is so heated about how a friend cost them the round of Devour that she can't even tell the story correctly. Thankfully, Chicken can elaborate!

In this week's installment of Legends of the Fall, we journey from the roaring warnings of 1 Peter to the hidden courage of Queen Esther. Pastor Benjamin unpacks why sobriety and vigilance matter now more than ever, revealing how the enemy isolates us the same way a lion scatters a herd, making the weak and lonely vulnerable. Through Esther's story, we confront disappointment, isolation, and the lies that keep us from community. When Esther discovers a nation-wide plot against her people, she must decide whether to stay silent in the palace or step into purpose, even if it costs her life. This message calls us back to collective faith, shared strength, and the transformational power of standing together. If you've ever felt alone, overlooked, or disconnected, this episode will remind you: you belong, you matter, and together we are unshakeable.

DateOctober 19, 2025SynopsisIn this sermon, we confront the haunting fear that darkness will devour us. Through Jacob's midnight wrestling match with God, we discover that darkness isn't something to run from—it's a doorway to transformation. Wrestling with God in our darkest moments isn't a sign of faithlessness, but an invitation to experience divine presence and emerge changed, even if limping. Based on Genesis 32:22-31, with references to Barbara Brown Taylor's wisdom on sacred darkness and Kate Bowler's reflections on blessing through struggle.About The Local ChurchFor more information about The Local Church, visit our website.

Take the time to explore beyond the tourist hotspots, prepare for every kind of weather, and immerse yourself in the culture, history, and warm hospitality that make Scotland such a special destination.

This week on the UK Travel Planning Podcast, host Tracy Collins is joined by Amy Carpenter from Texas, who shares her unforgettable two-week adventure exploring England with her husband, Mark.Amy takes us through the highlights of their carefully planned itinerary, from the bustling streets of London to the charm of the Cotswolds, iconic castles, and literary landmarks. Highlights included Westminster Abbey, the Tower of London, afternoon tea at Fortnum & Mason, and quiet moments at St Dunstan in the East.In the Cotswolds, they based themselves in Bourton-on-the-Water, explored honey-coloured villages, and visited Sudeley Castle at dusk. A lifelong Jane Austen fan, Amy fulfilled a dream by visiting Bath, Winchester, and Chawton. Staying overnight at Hever Castle was a standout, giving them the rare chance to explore the grounds after closing time.Along the way, Amy discovered a love of steak and ale pie, picked up 21 tea towels as keepsakes, and gathered plenty of tips for fellow travellers — from using trusted transfer services to the importance of planning ahead.Whether you are a history buff, a Jane Austen devotee, or simply dreaming of your own UK escape, Amy's trip report is filled with practical advice and plenty of inspiration for your next journey across the pond.
