Building on the idea of energy hygiene, she shares how daily energy maintenance is just as essential as caring for your physical health. Simple practices like pausing, walking, or breathing mindfully can help you stay centered even when life feels overwhelming.Katie also opens up about a deeply personal moment of clarity: recognizing an old unconscious pattern of trying to fix and protect everyone around her. This habit—rooted in childhood experiences of caretaking and managing others' emotions—has continued into adulthood, often draining her energy without her realizing it.Through this real-time awakening, she explains:✨ What an “Energy Drain” Really IsThe obvious and not-so-obvious ways our energy leaksHow family dynamics can activate old patternsWhy trying to control everyone's experience depletes your internal resources✨ A Holiday Moment That Changed EverythingDuring a family Christmas tree outing, Katie noticed her body physically tightening—an immediate sign of stress.

Another lawsuit against generative AI company Perplexity for copyright infringement The New York Times has had enough, and they have filed a lawsuit in a New York Federal court. In October 2024, the Times sent a notice to stop accessing and using their content and then followed up with another notice this past July. Perplexity continues to ignore the warnings and a spokesperson for the company, Jesse Dwyer, said publishers have been suing new tech companies for a hundred years starting with radio, TV, the Internet and social media, but that has never worked out for them. I think this is a little bit different since AI pretty much takes the content directly from the publisher and publishes it for people to read. The Times is also including infringements for use of its videos, podcasts and images. The Times said in the lawsuit they are seeking damages, which at this point is unknown and injunctive relief which includes removing all of the Times content from Perplexity's products. This would be a major problem for Perplexity if they were to lose this case because the whole AI system pulls information from all across the web, and this would leave a big hole in the end result of Perplexity's information. The Times is not the only publisher suing Perplexity, other lawsuits have been filed by Dow Jones and the New York Post. If one company were to win in court that would be a major problem for AI companies like Perplexity. First it would set a precedent and other publishers would likely sue, it could also lead to less accurate information as there would be less sources to pull data from. Just when Apple corrected their major problems, it looks like there's a management drain Apple did a great job handling the proposed tariffs on its products, which would have devastated the company. Also, in court they managed to keep the $20 billion a year they receive from Google. But now, they seem to be fighting a management exit by some of their top executives. Over the last couple of weeks, it was announced that both their General Council and Head of Policy will be retiring next year. Another major concern was also announced in that timeframe that their Head of Artificial Intelligence and Strategy is also going to retire. Making matters worse, their Chief Operating Officer said he'll be retiring in July of next year. Don't worry about CEO Tim Cook being age 65, he said he is not considering retirement, and people at the company said he is not slowing down at all. It was also recently announced that Meta has taken from Apple a top designer named Alan Dye. Also Jony Ive, who is a Steve Jobs protégé and helped build the iPhone along with the Apple Watch, is heading over to OpenAI to help Sam Altman. It's not just the top people leaving though as apparently dozens of Apple engineers along with designers who are knowledgeable in audio, watch design, robotics, and much more are also finding a new home at OpenAI. Running a major technology company like Apple and striving for new innovation makes it difficult when a company is losing top management and star engineers and designers. I don't think this will cause a major drop in the stock short term, but it could be difficult longer term for the company when it comes to innovation and new products, which could concern investors in the years to come! It's time to put some commercial property into your portfolio You may be questioning why would I put real estate like commercial property in my portfolio that over the last five years or so has had a return of maybe 7% versus stocks that have done much better? The simple answer is the basic investing principle of buying low and selling high. Looking forward, I believe commercial real estate over the next five years should get better returns than artificial intelligence considering the fact that it is very pricey. Data from MSCI revealed that year to date large investors have purchased $4.6 billion more US commercial property than they sold. That is the first time that has happened in three years, and deal activity is still low compared to history. US commercial real estate values are off from the peak in 2022 and are now down on average around 17%. Looking just at commercial offices, there is a better discount considering there are down around 36% from their peak. History shows this could be a very good opportunity. There's only been two times over the last roughly 50 years or so when commercial property prices were down more than 10%. You have to go back to the early 1990s, which was about 35 years ago, and who could forget the 2008 great recession. How should you invest in office buildings and commercial property? The best and the easiest way is to use public real estate investment trusts, which are known as REITs. Please do not let your broker sell you private real estate of any sort so they can get paid a big commission. REITs that trade on the market are commission free and completely liquid unlike private real estate deals. With public REITs you can many times receive good investment yields between 4% and 6%. However, make sure to understand the fundamentals to insurethat dividend yield is safe. A history lesson shows that commercial property under performed from 1997 to 2000 when the tech boom was happening, but when the tech boom ended and went bust, commercial real estate did very well. Could the same thing happen now as there are signs that the AI rally could end? If you do invest in a good quality public real estate investment trust, you should have at least a 4 to 5 year time horizon to hold that investment. Financial Planning: The Benefits of Capital Gain Harvesting While many investors focus on tax-loss harvesting, harvesting capital gains can be just as valuable especially when you fall into the 0% long-term capital gains bracket. For example, in 2025 a married couple filing jointly can have taxable income up to $96,700 and still pay 0% on long-term gains. Because the standard deduction ranges from $31,500 to $46,700, and itemized deductions can be even larger, a household's total gross income can potentially exceed $150,000 while still remaining in the 0% capital gains bracket. If an investor wants to keep the same investment, they can immediately repurchase it, since wash-sale rules do not apply to gains. However, even though the gain itself is taxed at 0%, the added income may increase the taxation of Social Security benefits, pulling more of those benefits into taxable income. For those who don't face that issue, gain harvesting resets their cost basis and reduces the taxes they will owe later if they sell in a higher-income year when their capital gains rate jumps to 15% or even 20%. This strategy can also make sense for those currently in the 15% capital gains bracket who expect to be pushed into the 20% bracket later. Overall, capital-gain harvesting can be a powerful tool in years of temporarily low income. Companies Discussed: The Brink's Company (BCO), PVH Corp. (PVH), Pure Storage, Inc. (PSTG) & The Kroger Co.

If you think 2025 was a property boom, you’ve been lied to. Prices did rise — but not because Australia suddenly got richer, smarter or more confident. In this episode of Get Invested, Bushy Martin dismantles the popular boom narrative and explains why 2025 was really a policy-driven bottleneck that quietly rewarded a small group of prepared investors — while leaving many others exposed. Bushy breaks down how record-low listings, decade-low construction, surging migration and government-engineered price bands combined to create intense pressure in very specific parts of the market. The result? Some Australians made a year’s wage in equity without fanfare, while others chased hotspots, followed influencers, and overpaid for the wrong property in the wrong location — often without realising it yet. In this solo episode, Bushy reveals the three real forces that pushed prices higher even as affordability hit rock bottom, why 2025 was never an “equal boom”, and how national policy settings funnelled buyers into the same narrow price band — creating artificial competition in so-called “affordable” markets. He also revisits his proven 3 I’s (Infrastructure, Incomes, Industry) and 3 P’s (People, Property, Position) framework, showing why fundamentals — not FOMO — explained where growth actually occurred. Most importantly, Bushy outlines why strategy must come before location, and why borderless analysis paired with strong local execution is the smarter way to invest. Stick with Bushy to the end and you’ll walk away with a clear, practical three-step checklist you can use before buying anything in 2026 — because next year isn’t about prediction, it’s about positioning. This episode is essential listening for investors who want to live by design, not by default.

His huge steel sculptures have graced Black Rock City for decades, then found forever homes in cities, festivals, and private collections around the world.Hear veteran structural sculptor Michael Christian go deep and wide about his Burning Man art, from a Bone Arch to a 65-foot tall tower.He shares about his installation "Down the Drain," a commentary on human alignment or misalignment... or maybe it's about toilets blowing kisses at each other! He talks with Stuart about the shift from a "lone artist" mindset to community collaboration, and how to get everything done despite a storm or a lost box of bolts. They tinker with the qualities of hubris and humility. They get real about why they keep returning to the collective happening in the dust.How does he follow intuition more than a thesis? How does he discover the meaning of his art only after he has built it? How did ‘out of the box' thinking become a 30 year career? These questions are answered with more questions in this episode right here.https://www.michaelchristian.com LIVE.BURNINGMAN.ORG
In the quest for better water quality, farmers and city residents share a vital common goal: protecting our shared water resources by managing runoff. Host Jamie Duininck speaks with Ann Zawistoski and Sophie Wicklund of the Adopt-a-Drain program to draw a direct line between agricultural and urban water management practices. Just as farmers use practices like buffer strips, bioreactors, and controlled drainage to minimize nutrient loss, our “city cousins" clean their local storm drains to prevent urban pollutants like leaves and debris from entering waterways.Adopt-a-Drain empowers the public to take responsibility for stormwater management, recognizing that urban stormwater runoff is a major source of water pollution. The program encourages residents to adopt a storm drain near their home and clean it just twice a month. This simple, hands-on approach transforms the public's understanding of their impact on the watershed, leading to broader behavioral changes. The collective results prove the power of individual action, with over 30,000 adopted drains and nearly one million pounds of debris removed across the country. Tune in to discover the powerful parallels between urban and agricultural water quality practices and how community engagement is successfully working toward clean water for everyone.Chapters:00:00 Introduction00:36 Adopt-a-Drain Guest Introductions01:57 The Urban Stormwater Challenge04:00 How the Adopt-a-Drain Program Works05:40 Nearly 1 Million Pounds of Debris Removed06:35 Behavior Change07:50 Adopt-a-Drain's Origins and Inspiration10:52 Why Small, Frequent Cleanings Make a Big Difference13:56 Engaging Participants Year-Round15:53 Funding and Partnerships19:42 The Parallels to Ag Water Management25:39 Expanding the MovementRelated Content:#138 | Set It & Forget It...

This week, we continue with part two of our four-part lead-up to Christmas, focusing on sides and salads. Mike van de Elzen has chosen two of his favourite classic salads ahead of the festive season, and runs Francesca Rudkin through the recipe as well as a few tips on the key to a great salad. Ember charred cauliflower with grated ginger, parsley and parmesan Cook time: 10 minutes Prep time: 10 minutes Serves: 6 1 head of cauliflower oil for cooking Flaky seasalt and cracked pepper 1 large knob ginger, peeled and mircoplaned 1/2 flat leaf parsley, roughly chopped 1 cup parmesan, finely grated 4 tbsp Extra virgin olive oil (this would have to be a first!) Cut the cauliflower into long florets. You should look at getting around 15-20 florets. Bring a large pot ofof salted water to the boil and plunge in the cauliflower. Cook until just under. This will take about 3 minutes. Remove and plunge into iced water to stop the cooking. Drain once cold and place the cauliflower into a large bowl, drizzle with oil and season with salt. Char-grill over embers or on a hot BBQ until coloured. Place back into a clean bowl, toss through the fresh ginger, parsley, parmesan and the remaining olive oil. Check seasoning, you may need more salt. Toss and serve Roasted carrots w mint emulsion & spiced chickpeas Cook time: 45 minutes Prep time: 20 minutes Serves: 12 20 carrots cut in half 2 tbsp sunflower oil flaky seasalt Miso emulsion 2 soft boiled eggs 1 tbsp miso paste Juice of 1 orange Juice of 2 lemon 1 cup coriander leaves and stalks 10 mint leaves 2 tbsp brown sugar 1 clove garlic 1 tbsp ginger, peeled 300ml sunflower oil Spiced chickpeas 1/4 cup sunflower seeds, roasted 1/4 cup pumpkin seeds, roasted 1 can drained chickpeas 1 tsp paprika 1 tsp ground cumin 1 tsp ground coriander 1/2 tsp crushed farm chilli 2 tbsp sunflower oil Pre heat the oven to 180*c. Cut the carrots in half and drizzle with oil and sprinkle with some salt. Place into the oven and roast until tender. Combine all the ingredients for the spiced chickpeas in a bowl and toss, lay out onto a roasting tray and place in the oven along with the carrots. Cooked for 30 minutes stiring every 10 until crispy. Allow to cool Make up the mint emo Bring a pot of water to the boil and carefully drop in your eggs. Time them for 5 minutes before removing and placing into iced water till cold. Carefully roll the eggs breaking the shell before peeling. (good luck!) Place all the ingredients apart from the oil into the blender and turning on slowly before turning up and slowy drizzle in the oil. Season with salt and pepper if required. Spoon a couple tbsp of mint emo onto a platter and stack the roasted carrots on top and finish with the spiced chickpeas.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
The etcd project — a distributed key-value store older than Kubernetes — recently faced significant challenges due to maintainer turnover and the resulting loss of unwritten institutional knowledge. Lead maintainer Marek Siarkowicz explained that as longtime contributors left, crucial expertise about testing procedures and correctness guarantees disappeared. This gap led to a problematic release that introduced critical reliability issues, including potential data inconsistencies after crashes.To rebuild confidence in etcd's correctness, the new maintainer team introduced “robustness testing,” creating a framework inspired by Jepsen to validate both basic and distributed-system behavior. Their goal was to ensure linearizability, the “Holy Grail” of distributed systems, which required developing custom failure-injection tools and teaching the community how to debug complex scenarios.The team later partnered with Antithesis to apply deterministic simulation testing, enabling fully reproducible execution paths and easier detection of subtle race conditions. This approach helped codify implicit knowledge into explicit properties and assertions. Siarkowicz emphasized that such rigorous testing is essential for safeguarding the sensitive “core” of large open source projects, ensuring correctness even as maintainers change.Learn more from The New Stack about the etcd projectTutorial: Install a Highly Available K3s Cluster at the Edge Join our community of newsletter subscribers to stay on top of the news and at the top of your game.

In this week's mixtape rewind, we go back a couple of years to when Matt and Sam did a deep dive into music supergroups.Imagine loading a playlist where legends keep walking through the door. That's the ride we built as we dive into supergroups that actually deliver, from the crunch of Audioslave and the finesse of Cream to the indie cohesion of Boygenius and the pure joy of the Traveling Wilburys. We chase the central mystery behind these collaborations: when distinct sounds collide, what holds, what changes, and why does it matter?We start with the gravitational pull of great voices. Chris Cornell gives Audioslave immediate identity while Tom Morello adds that unmistakable edge, and Maynard James Keenan turns A Perfect Circle into a masterclass in mood without copying Tool. Then we test chemistry in the engine room: Chickenfoot fires up old-school rock craftsmanship, and Them Crooked Vultures stretch grooves into cinematic builds powered by Dave Grohl, Josh Homme, and John Paul Jones. For a genre swerve, Mount Westmore brings bass and swagger with Snoop, Too Short, E-40, and Ice Cube trading bars like it's a victory lap.Contrast keeps the mix alive. Wild Flag threads surfy drums with indie bite, and Boygenius shows how three solo voices can trade lead without crowding the song. Prophets of Rage fuse protest and power, pulling rap and rock tight around a sharp social focus, while The Highwaymen remind us that sometimes the most classic move—four giants trading verses—still lands hardest. And to cap it all, the Traveling Wilburys prove that when Bob Dylan, George Harrison, Jeff Lynne, Roy Orbison, and Tom Petty decide to have fun, the hooks practically write themselves.Be Yourself by AudioslaveBig Subwoofer by MOUNT WESTMOREWhite Room by CreamDown the Drain by ChickenfootElephants by Them Crooked VulturesRomance by WILD FLAGPassive by A Perfect CircleBruised by The BensLiving on the 110 by Prophets of RageHighwayman by HighwaymanSatanist by boygeniusWilbury Twist by The Traveling Wilburys Support the showVisit us at https://www.superawesomemix.com to learn more about our app, our merchandise, our cards, and more!

In this episode of the HVAC Know It All Podcast, host Gary McCreadie talks with Jeff Ponce, Senior Product Manager at RectorSeal, about Clear Drain PVC and the science behind better condensate management. Jeff explains how traditional PVC drain lines develop clogs caused by bacteria and biofilm buildup and how Clear Drain PVC solves this with a hydrophobic surface that prevents growth. They discuss why zinc is used in the product, how it creates a slippery surface instead of killing bacteria, and the research and development behind its creation. Jeff also shares how the product was first used in grocery store refrigeration systems in Europe and how it is now helping HVAC contractors prevent costly water damage and maintenance issues. This episode discusses the challenges HVAC technicians face with condensate drain management and how new technology can prevent common clogs. Jeff Ponce from RectorSeal explains how Clear Drain PVC was created to stop bacteria and slime from sticking inside pipes. He shares how the zinc mixed into the PVC fills tiny pores, creating a smooth, slippery surface that keeps drains clean. Jeff also talks about how the product was first used in grocery store refrigeration systems in Europe and later tested for HVAC use in the United States. His focus is on helping contractors reduce maintenance issues, prevent water damage, and keep systems running efficiently. Expect to Learn: How condensate drain problems start and why they cause major HVAC issues. Why do traditional PVC pipes allow bacteria and biofilm to grow inside? How Clear Drain PVC from RectorSeal prevents buildup with a smooth, hydrophobic surface. The role of zinc in creating a safer and more effective drain solution. How this technology was developed, tested, and proven in real-world HVAC and refrigeration systems.

Show Notes The RPGBOT crew takes a dark, funny journey through the history of energy drain — one of tabletop RPGs' most punishing and misunderstood mechanics. Starting with OD&D's dreaded Wight, they trace how "losing levels" evolved across editions — from instant death in AD&D to hit point maximum reduction in D&D 5e and drained conditions in Pathfinder 2e. Along the way, Ash shares stories from her Ravenloft campaign, Tyler explains why undead needed to be terrifying, and Randall asks the eternal question: "Did anyone actually have fun with this rule?" Covered Topics: How energy drain first appeared in the OD&D White Box The connection between Wights, vampires, and permanent level loss Why AD&D and 3.5 made energy drain one of the most hated mechanics ever Pathfinder 1e and the dawn of "negative levels" D&D 5e's kinder, gentler approach — max HP reduction instead of level loss Pathfinder 2e's drained and doomed conditions, and how they replace energy drain The evolution of innervation and life drain spells How modern systems preserve undead flavor without destroying players' progress A philosophical question: Should tabletop games hurt this much? Plus: a tangent about Dark Souls, Bloodborne, and how much punishment is too much Mentioned Creatures & Mechanics: Wight, Vampire Spawn, Shadow, Ghoul, Varghoul Innervation / Enervation spell Negative levels, Hit Point Maximum reduction, Drained condition Resurrection penalties in 3.5e and Pathfinder 1e Afflictions, Fortitude saves, and Constitution death spirals Key Takeaways Energy drain began as a brutally punishing mechanic — losing levels in OD&D and AD&D could erase hours of play progress instantly. Pathfinder 1e softened the blow with temporary negative levels, while still terrifying players with math-heavy penalties. 5e and PF2 modernized the concept into simpler, narratively cleaner effects like HP maximum reduction or the drained condition. Undead identity survived — even as the math got easier, the flavor of losing your vitality to a vampire or wight remained iconic. Players prefer tension over punishment. Modern systems preserve danger without making players rage-quit. Energy drain mechanics reflect evolving design philosophy — from simulationist suffering to storytelling sustainability. DM takeaway: Make undead scary through story and tension, not through math that kills fun.

When the internet was created, the goal was the free-flowing of shared information for the good of humanity; what resulted was much more sinister than that. How do you love the Lord your God with all your strength if you spend too much time on the internet looking and experiencing things that sap your strength? That fills you with filth, that plagues you with guilt and shame. Living in this world makes it impossible to Love God to the fullest. The enemy comes to steal, kill, and destroy; Jesus came to bring life so we can live it to the fullest. Does your internet surfing lead to life or death? Stop Ignoring the dangers of the internet at work and home and put some digital armor in place like a safe internet VPN with Web filters and anti-virus and protect your strength.
The famed New Orleans Po' Boy is a sandwich to beat all sandwiches. It's messy, generous, and utterly delicious: a baguette stuffed with lettuce and fried prawns (or “shrimp”) and oysters, and with plenty of punchy mayo. Makes 2-4 Ingredients For the sauce, whisk the ingredients below until combined, taste and season to suit you. ¼ cup mayo 2 tbsps. thousand island dressing 1 tbsp hot sauce (or to taste) 1 tsp smoked paprika 1 tsp Worcestershire sauce 1 tsp horseradish (optional) Squeeze of lemon Get the below sorted before you start frying: 1 long soft baguette or 2–3 smaller rolls, split lengthwise Dressing as above for spreading Shredded lettuce Sliced tomatoes Pickles, sliced Fried seafood: 200g raw prawns, peeled and deveined 6 fresh oysters, drained ½ cup plain flour ½ cup fine cornmeal ½ tsp cayenne pepper (optional but good) ½ tsp each dried thyme & oregano ½ tsp sea salt + pinch of pepper Oil for frying (neutral oil like rice bran) Method Mix the flour, cornmeal, herbs and spices and salt in a shallow bowl. Pat the prawns and oysters dry – this helps them crisp beautifully. Toss them gently in the flour mixture until well coated. Heat about 1cm of oil in a frying pan over medium-high heat. Fry the prawns and oysters in batches so they don't crowd the pan. They only need 1–2 minutes per side – you want golden, not tough. Drain. To make the po' boys, split the baguette and butter generously with butter, mayo, or the sauce you've made. Add the lettuce, tomato, pickle and then pile in the prawns and oysters. Spoon over the spicy mayo and press the top on. Serve immediately — po' boys wait for no one! LISTEN ABOVE See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Garth Heckman The David Alliance TDAgiantSlayer@Gmail.com If I sit here and talk about all the people I have prayed for and have seen healed, people God has given me words of knowledge for, people I have led to Christ… it can make you think I am bragging…Hold that thought. *if we were sitting in a group and I told you about all the weight I lost and showed off my abs…what would you think? **what if I was sharing about all my exploits in war and all the men and women I saved and the battles I was in. ****What if I told you how much I benched, squatted deadlifted… **-**-**What if I told you about all the times I tithed and didn't have money to tithe but I did, and how God has blessed me and how important it is to tithe…. ***what If told you about all the stories about my kids (Would these conversations irk you, bother you, fire you up, bore you?) THE RESPONSE GIVEN BY INDIVIDUALS IN ANY OF THESE SITUATIONS DEPENDS ON THE CIRCLE I AM IN. - If im at a weight watchers you would get excited and marvel - If I was at a Vietnam vet reunion - If Im sitting at Westside Barbell you would all add your own stories and think cool… no but no biggy - If Im with other business people, groups of entrepreneurs who all have sacrificed and seen God bless them… fire us up - with other parents, we would laugh and share pictures and stories Are there circles that make you uncomfortable?

Celebrate your success, not envy it. PUSHES YOU SPIRITUALLY Wrong CIRCLE: * Normalize mediocrity or bad behavior. * Drain your energy and blur your values. * Distract you from your purpose.

You probably never think about what happens when you flush the toilet, but a team of dedicated staff at the Clark County Water Reclamation District (CCWRD) make it their business to ensure our wastewater is treated and returned to Lake Mead. Southern Nevada recycles 100 percent of the water that goes down the drain or toilet. For every gallon of water returned to the lake, Southern Nevada can withdraw another gallon, helping stretch our limited water supply. CCWRD's Bud Cranor talks about the CCWRD's important-albeit smelly-job of ensuring they squeeze and clean every drop of water they collect from the valley's sanitary sewer on the Water Smarts Podcast, “SUSTAINABLE WATER RECYCLING: Don't be a Pain in the Drain.”Hosts: Bronson Mack and Crystal Zuelkehttps://www.snwa.com/https://www.snwa.com/
Send in your music story!A metal icon noticed them first, but the story gets louder from there. We're sitting with Chained Saint—teens with vintage swagger and modern force—unpacking how a Halford nod, a garage education, and a ruthless love of riffs turned into songs that hit like a live amp.We get into the DNA of their sound: Sepultura's gravity, Pantera's bite, and that Rush sheen hiding in the chorusy leads. Ethan breaks down a no-frills rig built around a JCM 800, Tube Screamer punch, and an EVH Phase 90 for lift, while Sebastian explains the SansAmp-to-Darkglass path that makes “Animosity” cut through in E♭. Cameron talks snare tuning and Grohl-level energy, proving you don't need a warehouse of gear to land a stadium-ready crack. It's a masterclass in tone discipline: choose the right tools, then play like you mean it.Beyond the gear, we talk songwriting and structure—why they refuse to pick between hooks and bridges, and how “1000 Tons” captured the band's pivot under real pressure. There's tour grit too: that DC haul up a second-floor stage, the shock on new faces when four young players launch old-soul heaviness, and the joy of making music parents and kids can share without irony. Dream collabs with Drain and Power Trip make perfect sense once you hear how they define the next era in one word: power.If you miss riffs that move a room and lyrics pulled from lived moments, you'll want this in your queue.

After several years of investing in crypto, Glen has built up a sizeable nest egg. The money means security and the ability to buy a home. One day, when trying to log in to Coinbase, he realizes that his account is locked. Seconds later, he receives a call from "Coinbase support." The customer service agent explains that due to a major data breach and the high volume of hacks, they are now being instructed to reach out and assist customers directly. He walks Glen through the account recovery process, which is reassuring, but within a day, Glen's account is drained of $180,000.
You've got questions. We've got two CFPs and a former planner ready to hash it out. Joe Saul-Sehy, OG, Doug, and CFP Anna Allem tackle the money decisions you're actually losing sleep over—and here's the thing: they don't always agree on the answer. That's the point. Should you drain your emergency fund to pay off debt? Is whole life insurance for your kids a smart move or an expensive mistake? How much life insurance do you actually need (not what some calculator tells you)? And when life throws you a curveball—layoff, surprise expense, major purchase—what's the move? With Joe Saul-Sehy's 16 years in financial planning, OG's CFP perspective, and Anna's insights, you'll hear how experienced voices think through these decisions differently—and why your answer might be different than all of theirs. Because the real skill isn't finding THE right answer; it's learning how to make YOUR right call. This episode is for anyone who's ever stared at their bank account thinking, "I know I should do something... but what?" Plus: Doug delivers trivia about the first auto insurance policy (because of course), the gang weighs in on athlete endorsements and reverse mortgages, and there's a TikTok money tip that sparks some debate. What You'll Walk Away With: • How experienced financial minds approach the emergency fund dilemma differently—and what that means for your situation • The whole life insurance debate: when it makes sense for kids and when you're better off elsewhere • A framework for figuring out how much life insurance you actually need—and why the "rules of thumb" don't always work • What to do when your financial plan meets real life (layoffs, surprise bills, major purchases) • The confidence to make a decision even when experts would handle it differently Before You Hit Play, Ask Yourself: What's the one money question you keep Googling but still don't feel confident about? If you're second-guessing your emergency fund, your insurance, or a big financial move, this episode is your permission to stop spinning and start deciding. Got a question we didn't cover?
