What used to be called “science fiction” is now our daily reality. The fringe right is in power, bombarding us with the openly fascist Project 2025.

Some philosophers posit the difficult truth that a world without grief would deprive us of a deeper appreciation of the evanescent beauty of life. Life cannot be grasped; it flows mysteriously from one moment into another - here, and gone. This is your moment to take it all in, so be present and celebrate it, they urge. When Stephen Colbert says that the devastating loss of his father and brothers in a fatal plane crash taught him gratitude one has to step back in awe and wonder to reflect on the heart tugging idea that grief may be a gift. Today we feature two survivors of loss - physical and spiritual. When Lucinda Williams asked “If we lived in a world without tears, how would broken find the bones?…” she hinted at this enigma 17 years before a stroke almost took her life; Patti Smith survived a punishing revolving door of grief: losing her husband Fred, her brother Todd, her best friend Robert, and somehow she moved through it all to create one of the most incendiary recordings of her career - after an 8 year hiatus. PATTI SMITHPatti Smith is a national treasure - (I don't throw that title around) - although, she'd probably demur saying she was just a chick from New Jersey who got lucky. But, anyone familiar with her memoir Just Kids knows it wasn't luck that drove this waitress with artistic aspirations to migrate to New York City to seek her rock n roll fortune among the poetic luminaries of the era - it was true grit and an unshakeable confidence in her talent.I admired her then -  in Sinatra drag on the cover of her debut album Horses, with all that tomboy swagger, but I LOVE her now as our eternally youthful elder poetess, touring the world like a good will ambassador for the embattled Peace and Love generation. On the song Gone Again she rages against loss, even as she acquiesces to its inevitability.LUCINDA WILLIAMSLucinda Williams is the ideal blend of tough and tender, of homespun heart and poetic sophistication. She is one of the best singer songwriters America has produced, and that's saying something. She's a short story Magus with an authentic Southern twang, whose autobiographical fiction stirs the heart like few others can.Her album Car Wheels on a Gravel Road, released in 1998, brought her to the attention of a much broader national audience, and her open hearted vulnerability proved both a blessing and a curse. Her artistic output and touring schedule accelerated, but in 2020, those wheels came off the axel, when a stroke took away her ability to play and sing. Thankfully, she's been working her way back, and the last chapter hasn't been written yet.

Jeremy Au breaks down the hidden math behind venture capital: why only a few startups matter, how VCs double down or walk away, and what real exits look like. Using the case of Instacart and Southeast Asia IPOs like SEA, Grab, and GoTo, he explains what separates paper value from cash returns, and why timing is everything. 01:07 VC Fund Economics and Decision Making: Covers how venture capitalists allocate time and support across their portfolio. Highlights the paradox where top performers need little help, while struggling startups consume the most resources. 04:04 Instacart IPO Case Study: Breaks down how early and late investors in Instacart performed. Shows how investment timing, conviction, and follow-on decisions shape actual returns. 08:34 Instagram vs. Snapchat: Acquisition Decisions: Compares two founders who faced billion-dollar buyout offers. One sold early and built long-term value inside a larger company. The other kept control but faced a bumpier ride. 11:20 VC Fund Performance and Metrics: Explains how to interpret MOIC and DPI. Focuses on the gap in Southeast Asia where paper returns look strong but real liquidity is still limited.

Love is mysterious, and the death of love even more so: it's complicated, sticky, and heart breaking. When there are children impacted, as was the case with Marvin and Anna Gaye, and Richard and Linda Thompson, the emotional brutality can resonate for generations. Is it worthy compensation if the anguish produces great art? Life is short - Art is long, and isn't that what every artist hopes for, that their art will endure beyond the grave? Who can weigh that balance?Today's cuts illuminate couples in crisis: In the case of the Thompsons, they were dissolving a recording and performing team; in Marvin's, he was being ousted by the sister of the man who gave him his break. Neither scenario is pretty, but the resultant music remains divine.HERE MY DEAR / MARVIN GAYEAnna Gordy Gaye wanted a million dollars as a divorce settlement from Marvin. She took out a warrant for his arrest for failing to pay alimony, and put a restraining order on him. Check. So, a deal was struck: in exchange for $600K (1/2 in advance; half to be taken out of royalties), Marvin would produce a new album to get her paid. Check mate.Initially intending to make a quick knock off, Marvin became fascinated with the project, devoting himself to making it a passionate sacrifice, detailing the death of love. It was a critical and commercial failure upon its release, but has since been reconsidered, and is now thought of as one of his finest achievements. The title cut that introduces the album disturbingly cuts off in mid-phrase - a distinctly telling gesture.WALL OF DEATH / RICHARD AND LINDA THOMPSONLinda was pregnant with Richard's third child when producer Joe Boyd got them into the studio to record the album “Shoot Out the Lights” - a record which Rolling Stone designated as #9 on its list of the “Best Albums of the 1980s”.  They were supposed to tour immediately after to promote the record, but unfortunately, this had to be delayed to allow Linda to give birth. In the interim, Richard, who had fallen in love with another woman, dropped the bad news on her as they set out on tour.After being together for 10 years, and Linda converting to Sufi Islam for Richard, renouncing worldly pleasures, she was now trapped inside a loveless, commercial obligation, ironically, to promote their finest collaboration.Wall of Death, which closes the album, depicts love as a dangerous carnival ride in which you take your chances at calamity, but still want to go back to ride, again and again.

Selective Ignorance, Welcome To Black Effect! Mandii B invites listeners into her world with a personal look at the journey behind her new book. [00:00] The episode opens with a candid introduction and book promotion, where Mandy shares the inspiration behind the project and the mission she hopes it will accomplish. [02:22] She revisits the purpose of the podcast itself, and the podcast officially joining the Black Effect Podcast Network emphasizing her commitment to challenging conventional thinking and sparking honest dialogue.

Episode 273:  It is understanding your progress and the shifts you need to make toward achieving your year-end goals:    Mid-year is the perfect time to reassess, refocus, and reignite your sales strategies. Whether you're ahead of your quotas or trying to make up for lost ground, the next six months offer countless opportunities to optimize your performance. I will share nine key strategies that will help you refocus, boost growth, meet your targets, and elevate your sales performance.   We must begin by honestly assessing our performance in the first half of the year. There is no judgment, just an evaluation of what we have accomplished, areas of progress, and the following steps to commit to.   1. Refine Your Product Pitch   Your product pitch is a powerful tool that can significantly impact your success. Now is the time to evaluate and refine it. Test your pitch with colleagues or mentors, gather feedback, and make adjustments to make it more engaging and tailored to your client's needs. Tools like sales pitch refinement apps and AI platforms can provide valuable insights into the tone, clarity, and effectiveness of your pitch. 2. Double Down on Client Relationships   Strong client relationships are the cornerstone of long-term sales success. Mid-year is an ideal time to check in with your existing customers. Celebrate the wins they've had since partnering with you, or inquire about any changes in their needs or goals. Use this insight to strengthen your collaboration. 3. Leverage Advanced CRM Tools   Are you fully utilizing your customer relationship management (CRM) platform? Tools like Salesforce and HubSpot go beyond managing leads; they provide data-backed insights into client behavior, predict purchasing patterns, and help automate follow-ups. Mid-year is an ideal time to clean up your CRM data and maximize the tool's potential to enhance lead engagement and increase meeting and sales conversions. 4. Focus on Qualified Leads   Not all leads are created equal. Revisit your lead generation strategy and prioritize prospects most likely to convert. It will ensure that you target prospects who align with your ideal customer profile, keeping your pipeline lean yet high-quality. 5. Elevate Your Follow-Up Process   Studies show that 80% of sales require 5+ follow-ups, yet many of us stop after just one or two. Develop a follow-up process that is both persistent and respectful, utilizing personalized emails, value-driven updates, and call-back schedules to ensure effective communication. Make your follow-up customized, not automated. 6. Track & Celebrate Milestones   Take time to track progress towards your goals and celebrate milestones, no matter how small. It will not only boost team morale but also provide an opportunity to reflect on what's working and make adjustments to elements that need improvement. Use performance tracking tools to measure how close you are to achieving (or exceeding) your quotas. 7. Stay On Top of Industry Trends   The sales landscape is constantly evolving, with new tools, tactics, and challenges consistently emerging. To stay ahead, dedicate time each week to reading industry blogs, attending webinars, or networking with other professionals. Whether it's harnessing AI to improve productivity or exploring new markets, staying informed will help you stay competitive. 8. Engage in Sales Coaching or Mentorship   Even the most experienced sales professionals benefit from structured coaching or guidance from a mentor. A coach can help you identify blind spots, optimize your strategies, and inspire creativity in your approach. If you don't currently have a mentor or access to coaching, consider joining online communities or forums for sales professionals to exchange tips and advice. 9. Make Data-Driven Decisions   Data increasingly drives sales. Utilize tools such as Google Analytics, LinkedIn Insights, or your in-house analytics platforms to identify trends, assess performance, and forecast customer behavior. Refine strategies using historical data and adopt an iterative approach to improving your success rate.   Remember, thriving in sales requires a balance of persistence, personal development, and adaptability. These mid-year strategies can help you reassess your current status and set yourself up for a strong second half of the year.   Start by identifying one or two areas where you can make immediate improvements, and take action today. There's no better time to refine your game, inspire client trust, and achieve your goals.   How do you plan to supercharge your sales performance this year? Your thoughts and favorite strategies are valuable to us, so please share them below!   If someone can benefit from this episode, please share it with them.   Until next time, Keep Making Progress.    Connect with Lisa: https://www.linkedin.com/in/lisathal/ http://threewordmeetings.com http://threewordpodcast

We offer today two examples of eerie rock music - notable records that have been inspired by horror literature, and classic suspense. H.P. Lovecraft's folky psychedelia, and Paul Williams' soundtrack for Phantom of the Paradise both fit the bill for spine tingling tunefulness.Rock's dramatic possibilities seem obvious, but have rarely been successful. Theater would seem to be the ideal medium for rock music, but early attempts to mix the two were awkward because creators, trying to appease the commercial audiences of the late 1960s, were not attracting the young people — the folks who were actually listening to the cutting edge music of the time.  This, of course, changed over the years, as the young people matured into middle age, and now into late-life. Today, they flock to see shows like Dylan's Girl From the North Country. Rock is the standard musical vehicle for storytelling. PHANTOM OF THE PARADISEPaul Williams, the diminutive maestro of pop song craftsmanship starred in, and scored, Brian De Palma's 1974 re-imagining of Phantom of the Opera, a Faustian fever dream. The composer of “We've only just begun” (originally a bank commercial), and many other pop hits, put his considerable chops on the line for this cinematic effort - which flopped everywhere but Winnipeg, Canada for some reason, and the soundtrack went gold there.Williams, who started his career as a child actor, developed into a popular raconteur, a staple of late night television talk shows, and this exposure perhaps over shadowed his immense acting and musical talent. In this cut, “The Hell of It” his power is persuasive.HP LOVECRAFTGeorge Edwards, a folk singer from Chicago, teamed up with Dave Michaels, a versatile, multi-instrumentalist, to create the Psyche band, HP Lovecraft. The name was chosen by their benefactors, horror aficionados Bill Traut and George Badonsky at Dunwich Records (a label also named for one of the horror master's stories) - and the rest is history in the annals of Buried Musical Treasure. The lifespan of the group was brief, producing only two albums, with personnel changes happening practically from the beginning, but something significant was in the offing.Spin Spin Spin, from the group's second album is a good example of their unique mesh of folk style with classical flavors, featuring swirling harmonic pulsations - which conjure a mysterious aura. A definite time capsule from the Lava Lamp era.

Sit to Stand Test & Surgical Vitality PodcastFIVE PRIMARY POINTS of this week's PODCAST* Tame the “Brain-on-Fire” ProblemRunaway neuro-inflammation accelerates multiple sclerosis, stroke, Alzheimer's and Parkinson's. Prioritize lifestyle tactics that cross the blood–brain barrier—sleep, anti-inflammatory diet, and stress control—while watching developments in next-gen brain-penetrant drugs.* Ice Is Medicine: Use Cold Exposure to Re-Route Energy Away from InflammationBrief, controlled cold stress (a 90-second cold shower in the morning, progressing to 3–5 min ice baths or cold plunges 2–3×/week) forces the body to burn calories for heat, starving inflammatory pathways and even improving auto-immune outcomes in animal models. Always clear major cold work with your physician first.* Move Before You Medicate for Depression & AnxietyA meta-analysis of 26 RCTs (>2,500 participants) shows exercise rivals—or beats—pharmacotherapy for mood disorders. Aim for a baseline of 30 min brisk walking or resistance work most days; any movement is better than none, and mixed aerobic + strength routines offer the strongest mental-health bump.* Inflammation in Your 20s Predicts Brainpower in Your 40sAn 18-year cohort study linked consistently high—or even slowly rising—CRP levels with poorer mid-life cognition. Action: get a baseline CRP, track it yearly, and deploy weight control, resistance training, and nutrient-dense, time-restricted eating (“eat less, eat less often”) to keep levels low.* Double-Down on Purpose & Gratitude—They're Biological Anti-InflammatoriesA strong life purpose lowers IL-6 and CRP, while daily gratitude practice calms the amygdala and drops TNF-α. Practical micro-habit: each week thank five people (voice or face-to-face), and block 15 minutes on Sunday to revisit your “why.” Pair with twice-weekly strength training to release anti-inflammatory myokines and boost BDNF for memory.Listen to the full podcast to learn more and please leave your comments below.

United States President Donald Trump can force Israel to end the war on Gaza if he shows the same gumption as he did with Iran, argues Trita Parsi, executive vice president of the Quincy Institute for Responsible Statecraft. Parsi discusses the wider implications of the 12-day war on Iran with host Steve Clemons, including: Will Iran double down on its nuclear weapons programme? Will improved Iran-US relations lead to sanctions relief? Why did European leaders legitimise the unprovoked US and Israeli attacks, instead of calling for the “rules-based order” as they do in Ukraine? Does Iran have allies?

The machine and media are already working to prop up his profile and whitewash his very public Soviet Union-mirroring platform. Has the nomination solidified the Democrats as an official Far-Left authoritarian party as it has been leaning toward (but publicly hiding) over the past 18 years?

In the world of business, yet again, things looks grim. A brewing trade war, the uncharted fallout of artificial intelligence, and political upheaval around the world... All these factors have created an atmosphere of business uncertainty. Marketing jobs and budgets face the specter of the chopping block once again, and many are taking a "batten down the hatches" approach. But at a time like this, it's important to remember: when everyone else goes quiet, your voice carries that much further. And so in this episode, we're revisiting a pivotal conversation with Joe Pulizzi from the peak of the Covid lockdowns. When uncertainty was at its worst, he shared the story of how he raised the multi-million-dollar brand "Content Marketing Institute" from the ashes of an entrepreneurial venture that failed during the Great Recession. By "going big" on branded media when everyone else went home, that fledgling company changed marketing forever, rebranding the notion of "Content Marketing" and forging a media empire. Pulizzi would go on to launch the "Content Marketing World" conference, write three best-selling books and co-launch “This Old Marketing” the podcast. And his advice will come as a breath of fresh air for communications professionals who are uncertain about what comes after 2025. It certainly did for Dusty in 2020. As he reveals for the first time in this episode, he was close to despair about the future of Podcamp Media when he first had this conversation with Joe. But the interview forced Dusty to take a deep breath, double down on his podcast content marketing strategy, and dig in on making Podcamp Media succeed. And here we are today.

Our artists today represent a very specific category within the folk music genre, which lately has come to be known as “Freak Folk”: one is a contemporary singer-songwriter, and the other is an “ancestral” group (when you consider they derived from the early 1970s, before there was even a category for it); one hails from the U.K., the other from California. However, both The Incredible String Band and Joanna Newsom share an “off the grid” sense of musicality and exist in a space well beyond any pop music fashion - past, or present.JOANNA NEWSOMWho doesn't like harp music? It's the preferred instrument of the angels, after all, and Joanna Newsom is indeed one of those. Whimsical, profound, incandescent - all these adjectives apply to this nerdy goddess, who, I was delighted to learn, is also the life partner of the silly comedian, Andy Samberg (and, cousin to the Governor of California). These personal stats ground her in a concrete reality that detracts a bit from her mystery, but, at the same time enhances her approachability. Listening to The Sprout and the Bean is like being gifted a pass to the 100 acre wood to visit Pooh, or transported to an elven glade where everything - (animals, plants, earth, and water) is imbued with magic - where the pantheism between man and nature serenely collapses all sense of temporality…. Whoa…getting a bit woo woo here. Never mind all that. Just enjoy her otherworldly conjurings!THE INCREDIBLE STRING BANDThe Scottish duo of Robin Williamson and Mike Heron formed the nucleus of one of the strangest musical acts of the last century. It takes a moment to get past what initially seems like off-key meanderings to appreciate that there is a deep level of sophistication and prescience here, in terms of world music, that still sounds fresh and modern - over 50 years later.Props to Joe Boyd, the genius UK producer at Elektra records at the time, for discovering, recording, and introducing this band of medievally dressed musical magicians to the world. And, they would have made an even bigger splash (no pun intended), if the inclement weather at Woodstock hadn't delayed their scheduled performing slot - (Melanie grabbed it) - which forced them to crowbar their gossamer stylings within the hardest of hard rock line ups the next day. As a result, their ethereal charms went unappreciated. Our featured cut, Waltz of the New Moon displays their unique vision and vocal technique perfectly.

After the U.S. bombed Iran's nuclear facilities last Saturday, many fear the outbreak of World War III. But geopolitical strategist Jacob Shapiro says something more dangerous may be unfolding: U.S. unpredictability is accelerating global realignment, weakening alliances, and fueling the decline of the dollar. In this must-watch interview with Maggie Lake, Jacob breaks down: - Trump's decision to strike Iran: calculated gamble or global liability? - Why China and Russia aren't coming to Iran's - How Iran's internal chaos could backfire, or spark revolution - What China really wants, and how it plans to get it without war - Why you shouldn't trade geopolitics, but what risks to watch - The growing debt crisis and weakening U.S. financial leadership - The greatest underappreciated threat facing the West right now Volatility got you concerned?

I'm Josh Kopel, a Michelin-awarded restaurateur and the creator of the Restaurant Scaling System. I've spent decades in the industry, building, scaling, and coaching restaurants to become more profitable and sustainable. On this show, I cut through the noise to give you real, actionable strategies that help independent restaurant owners run smarter, more successful businesses. In this episode, I tackle a really common frustration: pouring time and money into marketing when the real problem is the product itself. I break down the brutal but freeing truth: Marketing is a megaphone, not a magician. I share my own hard-earned lessons on how to stop masking product issues with ads and instead zero in on product-market fit. I explain how to test it, iterate fast, and double down on what works — so you can stop wasting dollars and start selling out seats and dishes naturally.Takeaways:Many restaurants fail to profit because they haven't built a strong business behind great food and service.If your concept doesn't resonate with your target market, no amount of marketing will fix it.True product-market fit shows up instantly — seats fill, dishes sell out, buzz spreads organically.Marketing only amplifies what's already working; it can't create demand where none exists.To find product-market fit, test small, track data, listen to feedback, and iterate constantly.Stop trying to revive your weakest menu items — double down on your best sellers and build on what already works.Once you nail product-market fit, that's the time to scale your marketing and growth.Chapters: [00:17] Why Restaurants Struggle Financially  [01:35] Cathy's Question — Is Marketing the Problem?  [02:00] Product-Market Fit Explained  [04:00] Marketing is a Megaphone, Not a Magician  [06:30] Double Down on What Works If you've got a marketing or profitability related question for me, email me directly at josh@joshkopel.com and include Office Hours in the subject line.

Proficient Friends Vol. 2. CB recaps his epic Disney trip and the insane amount of steps he hit each day! Can the Pacers win two in a row to win the NBA Finals if Haliburton's injury keeps him out of the lineup? The Florida Panthers defeat the Edmonton Oilers to win their second straight Stanley Cup.

(00:00) Zolak & Bertrand begin the top of the third hour talking about the strike that could happen from the Fenway Park employees. (7:20) The guys take calls and reactions to everything thus far. (17:33) The guys continue to discuss Dobbins doubling down on his comments on his father and the yankees. (28:25) We finish the hour debating on who would you rather trade from the Red Sox, Duran or Abreu.

There is something that happens when two particular voices blend together that transcends all understanding or logic. And, when those voices share the same DNA, the magnetic pull is such that they become one voice. We've heard that family blend many times: The Everlys, The Wilsons, The Gibbs, The Andrew Sisters, etc. The list goes on.One of the most uncanny examples of this phenomenon belongs to Charlie and Ira Louvin, those titans of Country and Gospel music. When they sing with religious devotion, such as they do here in The River of Jordan - you can hear God and his miracles working in every keening, harmonic fifth. The other song presented today features Robert Plant and Alison Krauss, - a pair of folks about as far from siblings as you can get, but whose vocal cords also combine miraculously.THE LOUVINSThe first time I heard of Ira and Charlie Louvin was through Emmylou Harris's 1975 version of If I Could Only Win Your Love, and I had to know from whence this other-worldly sound originated. Like a hound on the scent, I tracked down several recordings from the brothers, and sat open mouthed as song after song cut through me. The Louvins, whose birth name was Loudermilk (cousins to the noted songwriter), had a contentious relationship, owing to Ira's drunken temperament and womanizing. Charlie contemplated going solo, but Ira's early demise, at 41, in a drunken car crash, made the decision permanent. Ira usually takes the high harmony, but they had the ability to switch mid way through a song so that it was often hard to tell who was covering which part.  Truly one of the all time great sibling singing duos. ALISON KRAUSS AND ROBERT PLANTA musical marriage made in heaven that no fiction writer could have invented, Robert Plant and Alison Krauss came together in one of the most celestial combos ever. The Led Zeppelin frontman, renowned for his soaring falsetto, melds with the rawboned steadiness of bluegrass's sweetheart in an eclectic stew of influences that somehow create a single entity. Today's featured song, Please Read the Letter, nestled among cuts by the Everlys, Gene Clark, Mel Tillis, and Townes Van Zandt was written by Plant and his Zeppelin brother, Jimmie Page, and is added seamlessly to the mix.The resulting album, Raising Sand, produced by the curatorial genius T-Bone Burnett, was released in 2007, and swept the Grammies and Americana Music Awards, taking its place in the pantheon of beautiful enigmas.  

Before we hit record on today's episode of Sell With Authority, my team and I went deep. We poured over research, we sifted through data, and we asked ourselves a simple question: What do agency leaders need most right now? Agency leaders who've done the hard work to niche down, to plant your flag, to be known for something — but your content still isn't converting the way it should — we built this episode for you. Across the agency landscape, a lot of smart, capable leaders are quietly pulling back. Frozen. Waiting for clarity. Wanting to be bold — but afraid to make the wrong move. We've been there. But here's what we also know — because the data backs it up: Agencies that lean in, that make progressive decisions in uncertain times, are the ones that build resilience. Predictability. Trust. And growth — even 10x growth in some cases. That's why I'm so excited for you to hear from today's returning guest expert Sara Hanlon, co-founder of Peer Sales Agency. Sara is sharp, no-nonsense, and has a gift for helping B2B agencies get off the content hamster wheel and start building true momentum. Her focus? Not selling harder, but showing up smarter. Also joining is our very own Director of Strategy and Mad Scientist, Hannah Roth. If you know Hannah, you know she's in the trenches every day with clients — helping them position their expertise, price their value, and build authority that generates demand. We unpack exactly how to lead with clarity, show up with generosity, and make your content strategy start pulling its weight. No hype. No guesswork. Just clear, practical insights to help you conquer uncertainty and roar through 2025. What you will learn in this episode:  What it takes to stand out and build trust with authority-driven content How to unify sales and marketing to drive consistent biz dev, stronger retention, and more referrals The most important meeting cadence and agenda to keep your team accountable and collaborative Why you should lean into your prospects' pain The research-backed difference between agencies that freeze and those that double down How to align your goals so that you are showing up as a strategic partner — not just a vendor Resources: Website: http://www.peersalesagency.com/ LinkedIn Personal: https://www.linkedin.com/in/sarahanlon/ LinkedIn Business: https://www.linkedin.com/company/peer-sales/ How to Create a Successful Buyer's Journey, with Sara Hanlon

Silver just broke past $35 oz last week, hitting its highest level in 13 years, and the rally may be just getting started. The Gold-Silver Ratio is collapsing fast, signaling silver could dramatically outperform gold in the months ahead, as shown in historical trends. Meanwhile, central banks are stockpiling gold at record levels, revealing where smart money is moving. Dive into our latest video to see what could come next. Silver Breaks Out Above $35: Silver bulls are riding high after a powerful breakout above the long-standing $35/oz resistance, closing the week near $36/oz—only the third time in U.S. history silver has crossed that threshold. Historic Gold-Silver Ratio Collapse: The Gold-Silver Ratio (GSR) plummeted from a recent high of 97.5 to 92, marking a sharp pivot that historically signals silver outperformance ahead—a pattern reminiscent of the early 2000s bull run. Global Central Banks Double Down on Bullion: Central bank gold buying remains relentless, with forecasts projecting 1,000 more metric tons to be added in 2025. This wave of institutional accumulation has massive bullish implications for precious metals, including silver.

America's existential war for survival includes among its many enemies scores of rogue Federal judges utterly committed to eradicating the constitutional order created by our Founders. In the face of an inept and impotent Supreme Court led by Chief Justice John “It's a tax!” Roberts, the rogue Federal courts have not only failed to moderate their insurrectionism, they have doubled and tripled down. Now more than four months into the Trump presidency, we see these rogue judges handing down ever more lawless orders—and this week has been amongst the most egregious so far. Join me LIVE as I break it all down. Get Your FREE Copy of Our Best-Selling Book: "The Law of Self Defense: Principles"Visit Here: https://lawofselfdefense.com/getthebook"You are wise to buy this material.

Democratic Senators' Stance on Illegal Immigration: The podcast criticizes Democratic senators for their stance on illegal immigration, particularly focusing on MS-13 gang members. Senator Chris Van Hollen from Maryland is highlighted for his visit to El Salvador to meet with an MS-13 gang member, which the hosts find astonishing and politically motivated. The discussion includes a critique of Van Hollen's defense of the gang member's due process rights and the broader implications of this stance for the Democratic Party. Supreme Court Decision on Deportations: The podcast covers a Supreme Court decision that temporarily halted the deportations of Venezuelan illegal immigrants. Justice Alito and Justice Thomas dissented strongly against this decision, arguing that it was hastily and prematurely granted. The hosts express concern about the implications of this ruling for the Trump administration's immigration policies and the broader legal and political landscape.
