Podcasts about Dunne

In this final episode of our Summer of Swans, we travel to the California home of Joanne Carson where Truman Capote spent his last days in August of 1984. Truman, infamous writer and collector of Swans, has some pretty epic stories in his last months, as told by his friends before his passing on August 25. Then, we drop in on Truman's first memorial service with mourners attached to Dominick Dunne in so any ways, including John Gregory Dunne, Joan Didion, Carol Marcus Matthau, Robert Blake, Artie Shaw and Christopher Isherwood.

Niels Kaastrup-Larsen and Alan Dunne examine how a changing macro regime is reshaping markets and the role of trend following. They discuss unusual U.S. intervention in the yen, mounting sensitivity around Treasury yields, and questions surrounding Kevin Warsh's communication and the Fed's credibility. Alan identifies three fractures defining the new regime: persistent inflation, growing debt sustainability concerns, and the erosion of institutional norms. They also explore why trend following has performed differently this decade, particularly during periods of bond market stress, before comparing AQR and GMO's strikingly different long-term return assumptions and what they imply for portfolio construction.-----50 YEARS OF TREND FOLLOWING BOOK AND BEHIND-THE-SCENES VIDEO FOR ACCREDITED INVESTORS - CLICK HERE-----Follow Niels on Twitter, LinkedIn, YouTube or via the TTU website.IT's TRUE ? – most CIO's read 50+ books each year – get your FREE copy of the Ultimate Guide to the Best Investment Books ever written here.And you can get a free copy of my latest book “Ten Reasons to Add Trend Following to Your Portfolio” here.Learn more about the Trend Barometer here.Send your questions to info@toptradersunplugged.comAnd please share this episode with a like-minded friend and leave an honest Rating & Review on iTunes or Spotify so more people can discover the podcast.Follow Alan on Twitter.Episode TimeStamps:00:00 - Introduction and what's been on Alan's radar01:55 - Why U.S. intervention in the yen matters07:04 - Zuckerberg, Meta and the $16.68 billion question08:31 - August trend following performance and market intervention12:16 - Why CTA performance is increasingly dispersed16:08 - Kevin Warsh, the Fed balance sheet and Treasury supply18:56 - Has short-term trend following structurally degraded?22:17 - Macro narratives versus systematic positioning24:37 - Fed communication, credibility and the Warsh reaction function30:16 - Bessent, Warsh, Druckenmiller and the battle over bond yields34:23 - The three fractures reshaping the macro regime41:42 - How trend following has changed in the new regime49:54 - Commodities, deglobalization and diversification52:29 - AQR versus GMO: radically different forecasts for future returns01:02:08 - Debt sustainability and what investors should watch nextCopyright © 2025 – CMC AG – All Rights Reserved----PLUS: Whenever you're ready... here are 3 ways I can help you in your investment Journey:1. eBooks that cover key topics that you need to know about In my eBooks, I put together some key discoveries and things I have learnt during the more than 3 decades I have worked in the Trend Following industry, which I hope you will find useful.

This week, we begin the wind down our summer Swan series by investigating the third act of Truman Capote, including those scandalous chapters of Answered Prayers which targeted and alienated his Swans. In 1966, Truman claimed double success with the publication of In Cold Blood. Ultimately though, these achievements combined with his own hubris do not lead Capote to happiness, as his last decade reveals. Sponsors Upgrade your every day!

Truman Capote had a feud with his Swans, sure. But do you know about the just-as-famous feud with fellow writer and raconteur Gore Vidal? Their epic battle got nasty, and it turns out Truman learned a whole lot about family matters from his bestie Swan, Lee Radziwell. Lee also happens to be a stepsibling of Gore through marriage, which makes the story even nastier. Today, we are backing the story all the way up to the mothers of Gore and Lee, Nina Gore Vidal and Janet Lee Bouvier. Spiderwebs abound! Sponsors Upgrade your every day!

Ray Dunne joined us on The Scoop this week to talk about his role as the new midday host at 97.5 The Fanatic and his work broadcasting Temple men's and women's basketball games. Just four years removed from graduating from Temple's Klein College of Media and Communication, Dunne has carved out a sports talk radio career in the nation's fifth-largest media market and was on the air when the news broke of LeBron James signing with the 76ers last month. Dunne shared his expectations for the seasons ahead for Diane Richardson and Adam Fisher and explained why he's bullish on K.C. Keeler's coaching and tight end Peter Clarke's future. Speaking of Clarke, he was one of five additional players announced by the team Thursday night to join Dante Atton and Colin Chase in earning a single digit, along with linebacker Eric Stuart, running back Sam Brown V, safety Saboor Karriem and center Grayson Mains. We'll tell you why Keeler still hasn't named his starting quarterback yet, and we'll also tell you why the Owls' cornerback room is turning the corner as the Sept. 5 season opener approaches.

In this episode of our summer of Swans, we spend a little time with Truman's Publishing Swan, Katharine Graham, America's first female CEO of a Fortune 500 company and the honoree of The Black and White Ball. Katharine is a friend to Truman, but plays a far larger role in Dominick Dunne's third act as well. David Begelman, the movie studio head and Hollywood hotshot, participates in a bit of criminal embezzlement providing Dominick Dunne a BIG clue on the way to investigative journalism career. Also included, a now-found missing chapter from Capote's Answered Prayers. These few pages of “Yachts and Things” recall all about that time that Katharine and Truman sailed around the islands, made friends with a dolphin, and did some hashish too.

Time's ticking for National to rebuild itself as a united front after putting Christopher Luxon's leadership to the test a second time. The Prime Minister survived a confidence vote launched by Chris Penk - at yesterday's three hour caucus meeting in Wellington. He's now dumped Penk from his ministerial portfolios and the former Defence Minister has announced he'll quit politics in November. Political Commentator Peter Dunne told Mike Hosking Luxon should be commended for surviving the challenge, but a third one would be a stretch too far. He says this has to be the end of it through to the election, and all the sentiments about the party being “100% united” have to be demonstrated if National's to come through this unscathed. Dunne was sceptical of the idea that Penk had launched the challenge to put himself forward for the job, saying he felt it was "a bit far-fetched", and that Penk was more likely testing the waters for others, namely Chris Bishop and Erica Stanford. "I don't think he necessarily was actively working with Bishop and Stanford, although he was clearly touting their cases," Dunne told Hosking. "[Luxon] can't really run a credible government without those two, so they have to be there, they have to be [kept] in senior roles, and they have to be seen to be treated as senior ministers."

Is the Prime Minister fed up with his coalition partners? Christopher Luxon told Kerre Woodham yesterday he's open to another vote on MMP, if re-elected. The system allows more representation in Parliament for smaller parties and was upheld in a 2011 referendum. Political commentator and former Cabinet Minister Peter Dunne told Mike Hosking Luxon's clearly frustrated. Dunne says he thought he'd be leading a strong National government, supported by others, instead of the three-way coalition he signed up for. Luxon's also being described as having loose lips. Dunne told Hosking he's let a lot of comments slip recently appearing to just blurt things out and mop up afterwards – including abruptly ruling out working with the Opportunity Party.

When a devoted mother & wife vanishes on the ten-minute drive between her work at a discount clothing store and home, police look at the most likely suspects—but after some acting on the kidnapped woman's “behalf,” they catch on to a shocking plot & terribly senseless act committed in the name of love—whether that love was real or imagined.Sources:1. “Accused Ringleader Convicted in Osceola Murder-for-Hire Plot.” Yahoo News, Yahoo News, 16 May 2023, https://www.yahoo.com/news/accused-ringleader-convicted-osceola-murder-193600874.html.2.

Odd Death Investigations in Police Work: Retired Aurora Colorado Cop Tells All. What really happens when police officers respond to the dead? Television crime dramas make death investigations appear clean, methodical, and wrapped up within an hour. The Law Enforcement Talk Radio Show and Podcast social media like their Facebook , Instagram , LinkedIn , Medium and other social media platforms. Retired Aurora, Colorado Police Sergeant Graham Dunne says the reality couldn't be further from the truth. The Podcast is available for free on the Law Enforcement Talk Radio Show and Podcast website, also on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, YouTube, iHeartradio and most major podcast platforms. #LawEnforcementTalk #Free #Podcast #Radio Behind every suspicious death, unattended death, apparent suicide, or homicide scene is a police officer forced to witness things that most people will never experience. Some cases become murder investigations. Others reveal tragic accidents or natural causes. But every one leaves an impression. Supporting articles about this and much more from Law Enforcement Talk Radio Show and Podcast in platforms like Medium , Blogspot and Linkedin. During an unforgettable interview on the Law Enforcement Talk Radio Show and Podcast, Dunne shares stories from nearly three decades in policing, including bizarre and disturbing death investigations that continue to stay with him years after retirement. Odd Death Investigations in Police Work: Retired Aurora Colorado Cop Tells All. The conversation is available on the Law Enforcement Talk Radio Show and Podcast website, Facebook, Instagram, YouTube, Apple Podcasts, Spotify, iHeartRadio, and most other major podcast platforms, where audiences continue discovering firsthand accounts from those who have lived the realities behind the badge. A Career Unlike Many Police Officers Dunne retired after 27 years with the Aurora Police Department in Colorado. Before becoming a police officer, he served in the United States Marine Corps. His law enforcement career would eventually include assignments as a patrol officer, SWAT operator, SWAT sniper, firearms instructor, academy instructor, field training officer, patrol supervisor, and Colorado POST subject matter expert. The episode is available across major platforms including their website, Apple Podcasts, Spotify, YouTube, with highlights shared across their Facebook, Instagram, and LinkedIn profiles. He also chaired Colorado's POST curriculum committee, helping shape the training of future law enforcement officers across the state. His distinguished career earned him the Police Medal of Honor, the Distinguished Service Cross, multiple lifesaving awards, and numerous commendations for bravery and leadership. Odd Death Investigations in Police Work: Retired Aurora Colorado Cop Tells All. Yet despite his impressive résumé, Dunne says some of the most unforgettable moments didn't happen during SWAT operations or gunfights. They happened while standing over the dead. Available for free on the Law Enforcement Talk Radio Show and Podcast website, also on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, Youtube and most major Podcast networks. Odd Death Investigations in Police Work Are More Common Than People Think As a patrol supervisor, Dunne estimates he investigated approximately 400 death scenes throughout his career. Some were expected. Many were not. Some initially appeared suspicious before detectives determined no crime had occurred. Others looked routine until evidence revealed a homicide. "Every death scene tells a story," Dunne explains. "But sometimes that story isn't what anyone expected." One investigation involved an unusual homicide connected to an individual living a voluntary sexual bondage lifestyle, a case unlike anything most officers will ever encounter. Dunne discusses how investigators must set aside personal opinions and focus entirely on evidence, facts, and professionalism regardless of the circumstances surrounding a victim's death.

The Podcast is available for free on the Law Enforcement Talk Radio Show and Podcast website, also on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, YouTube, iHeartradio and most major podcast platforms. The Reality Most People Never Hear About Television rarely prepares viewers for what officers actually experience inside homes, apartments, hotel rooms, or abandoned buildings. Death changes everything. The sights. The smells. The silence. Even the body's natural biological processes continue after life ends. Dunne candidly explains that officers frequently encounter postmortem bodily functions that surprise even seasoned investigators. The Law Enforcement Talk Radio Show and Podcast continues bringing listeners real conversations from the front lines of crime, policing, trauma, survival, and healing. "It's something nobody prepares you for," he says. Those realities become just another part of the job. But only on the surface. "They Steal a Part of Your Humanity" After hundreds of death investigations, Dunne believes every officer pays an emotional price. Some scenes involve elderly people who died alone. Others involve children. Some involve violent crime. Others simply reveal heartbreaking loneliness. "You don't walk away unchanged," Dunne says. "Those scenes steal a part of your humanity." It's a sentiment familiar to many first responders. The public often remembers the dramatic arrests and high-speed pursuits. Police officers remember the faces. The families. The smells that unexpectedly return years later. The quiet moments standing beside someone whose story has just ended. From SWAT Sniper to Patrol Sergeant Although death investigations left a lasting impact, they represented only one chapter of Dunne's remarkable career. Odd Death Investigations in Police Work: Retired Aurora Colorado Cop Tells All. He spent eight years on the Aurora Police Department SWAT Team as both an operator and sniper, worked countless violent crime investigations, responded to officer-involved shootings, pursued dangerous suspects, and trained generations of officers. Supporting articles about this and much more from Law Enforcement Talk Radio Show and Podcast in platforms like Medium , Blogspot and Linkedin. Following retirement, he founded Ragnar Tactical, providing firearms instruction, tactical medicine, active shooter response training, and executive protection education for law enforcement, military personnel, and civilians. He also serves as an expert witness involving firearms, edged weapons, and self-defense cases. The Book: The Jagged Blue Line Many of Dunne's experiences are chronicled in his acclaimed Book, The Jagged Blue Line. Rather than presenting Hollywood versions of policing, the memoir delivers authentic stories from a career spent chasing violent offenders, investigating bizarre deaths, surviving lawsuits, responding to shootings, engaging in high-speed pursuits, and witnessing humanity at both its best and worst. As Dunne writes, police officers assigned to large cities are given "a ticket to the greatest show on earth." Sometimes those stories are exciting. Sometimes tragic. Sometimes unbelievable. Often they're stranger than fiction. Readers quickly discover why The Jagged Blue Line has resonated with both law enforcement professionals and civilians interested in understanding what life behind the badge is truly like. Odd Death Investigations in Police Work: Retired Aurora Colorado Cop Tells All. The episode is available across major platforms including their website, Apple Podcasts, Spotify, YouTube, with highlights shared across their Facebook, Instagram, and LinkedIn profiles. Why These Stories Matter The public rarely sees what happens after emergency vehicles leave. Death investigations aren't simply evidence collection. They're emotional experiences carried by police officers long after reports are completed. Dunne hopes sharing these stories helps bridge the gap between communities and the officers sworn to protect them. His interview offers an honest, sometimes humorous, and often sobering look at the hidden realities of policing that most people never witness. For anyone interested in Odd Death Investigations In Police Work, the experiences of a retired Aurora Colorado Cop, or the compelling stories found in The Jagged Blue Line, this episode provides an unforgettable look inside one of America's most demanding professions.

Markets continue to evolve, and so do the strategies designed to navigate them. Alan Dunne joins Niels Kaastrup-Larsen to explore why changes in market structure may have permanently altered short term trend following, and what that means for systematic investors. They discuss a fascinating new research paper on market microstructure, the changing role of liquidity, the rise of high frequency trading and why faster no longer necessarily means better. Along the way they examine the Federal Reserve's evolving communication strategy, the outlook for commodities, and why regime change continues to create both risks and opportunities for trend followers.-----50 YEARS OF TREND FOLLOWING BOOK AND BEHIND-THE-SCENES VIDEO FOR ACCREDITED INVESTORS - CLICK HERE-----Follow Niels on Twitter, LinkedIn, YouTube or via the TTU website.IT's TRUE ? – most CIO's read 50+ books each year – get your FREE copy of the Ultimate Guide to the Best Investment Books ever written here.And you can get a free copy of my latest book “Ten Reasons to Add Trend Following to Your Portfolio” here.Learn more about the Trend Barometer here.Send your questions to info@toptradersunplugged.comAnd please share this episode with a like-minded friend and leave an honest Rating & Review on iTunes or Spotify so more people can discover the podcast.Follow Alan on Twitter.Episode TimeStamps: 00:00 - Summer reading, Jeremy Grantham and lessons from early quantitative investing 05:22 - Shrinking retail products, smaller futures contracts and the rise of retail trading12:18 - First half performance review for CTAs and trend followers15:36 - Commodity markets, Middle East tensions and the AI driven demand story20:09 - Kevin Warsh, Fed communication and a new era for monetary policy30:34 - Why regime change strengthens the case for trend following38:34 - The research behind the decline of short term trend following46:44 - Tick size, liquidity and what changed in market microstructure49:43 - Alternative explanations for why fast trend has struggled55:35 - Execution, market participants and the future of systematic trading01:00:45 - Final thoughts on the next evolution of trend followingCopyright © 2025 – CMC AG – All Rights Reserved----PLUS: Whenever you're ready... here are 3 ways I can help you in your investment Journey:1. eBooks that cover key topics that you need to know about In my eBooks, I put together some key discoveries and things I have learnt during the more than 3 decades I have worked in the Trend Following industry, which I hope you will find useful.

This week we dig into the second half of Ty's poorly written, far too credulous epic about Caleb Williams. Enjoy!

Compassion is more than feeling sorry for someone. It's a deep love that moves us to action. Through the Parable of the Good Samaritan and the example of Jesus, discover how God develops a heart that sees people, looks beyond their circumstances, and responds with intentional compassion.

In this next installment of the Candy Mossler series we meet her new lover (and nephew too) Melvin Lane Powers. This illicit relationship is an open secret in Houston and hits a few skids once her husband Jacques discovers the scandal. None of it ends well, for Jacques anyway.

Patrick Dunne, author of "Boards", joins host Alberto Lidji on the Do One Better Podcast for a timely conversation on how boards can become more effective, more agile and more valuable. Drawing on the third edition of his book "Boards", Patrick explores how governance is changing in a world shaped by AI, faster decision making, dynamic strategy, rising uncertainty and more complex risk. He looks at the growing role of AI in boardrooms, from summarising papers and tracking regulatory change to supporting better decisions, while also considering where human judgement remains essential. Patrick also discusses the increasing importance of subcommittees, the value of bringing domain experts and next generation voices into governance, and why advisory boards may not always be the best way to access external insight. He reflects on trustee remuneration, generational diversity and the need for boards to move beyond traditional meeting formats. A highly practical episode for board members, chairs, chief executives, trustees, philanthropists and social entrepreneurs who want to strengthen governance and make better decisions. Patrick's executive experience includes 26 years in a variety of investment and management roles with 3i Group plc where, until 2012, he was Communications Director, a member of its Operating committee and Chairman of its Operational Risk forum.  Visit our Knowledge Hub at Lidji.org for information on 350+ case studies and interviews with remarkable leaders in philanthropy, sustainability and social entrepreneurship.

After the death of Edwina Mountbatten in 1960, Dickie still had another 19 years of living to do, and while he was single, he was in no way alone. He had romances with plenty of women in his later years, and according to many, he had male lovers - including, it is alleged, boys - as well. A mentor to Prince Charles, his advice to the young man may have contributed to what turned into the tragic marriage, divorce, and untimely death of Princess Diana, who was exactly the sort of woman that Dickie encouraged the playboy prince to settle down with. The men remained close through the end of Dickie's life, and Charles delivered the eulogy at both of Dickie's services in 1979. Dickie was clearly a charming older man who counted Shirley MacClaine, Barbara Cartland, Christina Ford, and Sacha Hamilton, Duchess of Abercorn, who was also his god daughter, among his paramours. Let's say it was all pretty complicated, but that would only be keeping with rest of his and Edwina's history. Continue your investigation with ad-free and bonus episodes on ⁠⁠⁠⁠Patreon⁠⁠⁠⁠!

As Edwina took pains to lay low in Malta after the scandals of her affairs, Italy decided to exit the League of Nations and invade Ethiopia. To protect their children, she took them to Budapest and installed them in a hotel with their nanny and governess... and then forgot which hotel they were in. For months. As the summer of 1935 turned to fall, and then winter, they just stayed in their hotel until Edwina finally came across the paper she'd written the hotel's name on, tucked into the pocket of an outfit she hadn't worn in a while. Careless people. But then World War II came, and with so much asked of ordinary Britons, the privileged were required to step up. For perhaps the first time in her life, the skills and networking that Edwina had spent her life developing could suddenly be applied to a grand purpose: fundraising, organizing, lobbying for help in the United States. Louis was in the fight as a Naval officer, but Edwina was equally engaged, and the experience brought them together as never before. They would have further adventures together in India, overseeing the end of the Colonial period there, and form a distinct attachment to Indian Prime Minister Nehru that would last to the end of her life in 1960.

Programming note: This episode is a bit more explicit than most, including strong language and descriptions of sex. If you listen with wee ones, use your judgment. The early '30s were a roaring time for Edwina's various romances, though two in particular would have far-reaching implications for her lovers. The first, with American actor Paul Robeson, caused scandal in the London tabloids because Robeson was Black. The Royal Family considered the situation dire enough that they demanded that Louis and Edwina sue the tabloid that wrote it about for libel, and saw to it that the court would handle the case... carefully. An early morning hearing, of which no notice was given to anyone but the Mountbattens, resulted in a quick ruling in Edwina's favor, though the couple notably did not ask for damages. Paul Robeson himself was apparently quite wounded by the whole incident, having been close to Edwina and left to deal with the fallout on his own. The second notable affair was with Leslie "Hutch" Hutchinson, a Grenada-born musician whom Edwina had met in New York City. She encouraged him to bring his talents to England, where he became a bona fide star of the 1920s and '30s, entertaining royals and society patrons, and his work gained national prominence with frequent airings on the BBC. During his dalliance with Edwina, there are rumors that the two became "stuck" in flagrante delicto, requiring transportation by ambulance in the pose that was causing them troubles. Louis was outraged especially by Edwina's affair with Hutch, and as the scandal grew, Hutch found that his royal and society patrons had abandoned him. In spite of his celebrity, the Mountbattens appear to have had a role in his near erasure from history. It's all reminiscent of Fitzgerald's line in Gatsby: “They were careless people, Tom and Daisy - they smashed up things and creatures and then retreated back into their money or their vast carelessness or whatever it was that kept them together, and let other people clean up the mess they had made.” Continue your investigation with ad-free and bonus episodes on ⁠⁠⁠Patreon⁠⁠⁠!

As the Roaring '20s turned into the '30s, Edwina's appetite for other lovers showed no sign of diminishing, and eventually led to a breaking point with her long-suffering husband, Louis. At one point, they decided that divorce was the best option, but quickly reconciled with new rules for their relationship: Edwina would be more discreet in her dalliances, which had previously been headline news, and Louis would be free to take lovers of his own. But a funny thing happened when he finally did - Edwina was jealous! Continue your investigation with ad-free and bonus episodes on ⁠⁠⁠Patreon⁠⁠⁠!
