Jason was recently a guest on the Restoring Human Movement Podcast about: Strength training structure + mistakes (ideal for endurance runners) Why strength train in the first place? Protein needs for runners (age, activity, etc.) The type of strength training that improves running economy Thank you to Dr. Mandy Riehl for hosting an amazing discussion! Learn more about strength training here. Thank you Kila! Kila offers the world's lightest insoles. Made with super shoe foam, they're 65-70% lighter than most orthotics and worn by elite runners like UTMB champ Tom Evans. Go to kilarun.com and use code STRENGTHRUNNING for $50 your first pair. Truthfully, I'm skeptical of insoles. I once had orthotics and they were heavy, they gave me blisters, and they weren't comfortable at all. Most importantly: they didn't help me. Kila is different: lighter, more comfortable, with no doctor visits and no hassles with insurance. All you need to do is scan your feet at home using your iPhone. It takes less than 5 minutes and Kila then uses a lab to design your insoles, build them from scratch, and ship them directly to you. If you're already wearing insoles, Kila's are a game-changer. Level up your insole game with the lightest custom insoles on the market - no clinic markup, no visit to a specialist, and you get the benefit and comfort of super shoe foam. Go to kilarun.com and use code STRENGTHRUNNING to upgrade your insoles and save $50 on your first pair. Thank you LMNT! A big thanks to LMNT for their support of this episode!

After Sabotaging The SAVE Act, Thune Predicts Republicans Will LOSE The Senate! Sec. Bessent Admits War's Causing Inflation, Killing Economy! CIA Operative Gloria Steinem Dead At 92! Russian Nuke Gen. Shot In Face
Sep 2, 2026 – The bond vigilantes are back—and oil is fueling the fire. Kurt Kallaus reveals why we're "living on borrowed barrels," how draining reserves could jolt markets by October, and the surprising sectors he's buying while....
Iran's beginning to buckle under the strain of recent U.S. economic pressure, according to Iranian sources. Feminist leader Gloria Steinem dies at the age of 92. Trump's pledge to get U.S. finances under control falls flat, creating a looming fiscal crunch. And Denmark deploys conscripts to Greenland for the first time in recent history.
Tune in here to this Wednesday's edition of the Brett Winterble Show! Brett kicks off the program by talking about an unexpected visit to the WBT studios and Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent’s exclusive sit-down interview with Breaking Brett Jensen. Brett explains that the visit had been in the works for several days and required extensive coordination with the Secret Service before Bessent arrived in Charlotte. Jensen shares that he had previously interviewed the Treasury Secretary in Asheville and was surprised to learn that Bessent specifically wanted to visit the WBT studios for another conversation. Later Brett breaks down why Americans can feel like the economy is struggling even when traditional economic indicators tell a different story. He points to low unemployment, cooling inflation and solid market performance, while arguing that those numbers don't capture the everyday costs households are dealing with, including rent, mortgages, childcare, healthcare, car payments and groceries.

Everyone has access to the same AI horsepower now, which means “more content” is no longer a strategy. The real question is what AI can never replace about you and how to turn that into a durable advantage without becoming another generic brand that sounds like it was stitched together from internet averages.We sit down with Jon Benson, founder of BNSN.ai and a pioneer of the video sales letter (VSL), to get practical about persuasion in the AI economy. John walks us back to the early days of VSLs and explains what they revealed about human attention: people want relief from pain, they have a ton of noise in their head, and they do not care about your features until they feel understood. From there, we connect the dots to modern AI copywriting, why so much of it triggers a “something is off” reaction, and how trust drops the moment an audience suspects the message is fully machine-generated.Then we get tactical about using AI the right way. Jon breaks down why generic chatbots often produce robotic patterns and empty rhetorical questions, and why “human tweaks” are the difference between a draft that reads fine and copy that actually converts, especially on cold traffic. We also talk about training specialty AI on proven winners, building a digital CEO or clone that knows your work, and the bigger ethical questions coming fast: alignment, superintelligence, and why treating AI like a digital slave is a bad habit with real consequences.If you want AI marketing that scales your voice instead of erasing it, listen now, subscribe, and share this with a friend who's outsourcing their personality to prompts.

After record-setting temperatures across the country, dangerous summer heat continues to spill into September. The number of heat-related deaths in the Phoenix area are on track to triple last year's numbers. Schools, businesses, and events are shutting down across the Midwest from Iowa to Michigan. Institutions are also forced to close down in Pennsylvania and other states along parts of the Eastern Seaboard. Tribal officials are busy reacting to the current threat while also preparing for the likelihood that adapting to such conditions is a permanent concern. We'll look at the affect on people and the environment as the heat moves in.

Over the summer, thousands of young Indians took to the streets to demand sweeping reforms of the higher education sector. This unexpected wave of Gen Z mobilization was catalyzed by the emergence of the Cockroach Janata Party, a satirical meme that blossomed into a national movement. Protests that began over the state of higher education soon tapped into something much larger: growing frustration among young Indians over jobs, economic opportunity, and their prospects for the future. India's jobs debate is often framed around a familiar set of concerns: too many people working in agriculture, too few manufacturing jobs, an economy that is too-services oriented, and stubbornly high unemployment among the young. Our guest on the show this week has views on these subjects that often cut against the conventional wisdom. Vidya Mahambare is the Union Bank Chair Professor of Economics and Director at the Great Lakes Institute of Management in Chennai. She studies central banking and monetary policy, structural transformation, labor market dynamics and gender economics. She is also a prolific commentator and writes regularly for outlets like Mint, Business Standard, and The Print. She joins Milan on the Season 16 premiere of Grand Tamasha to discuss the economic drivers of the Gen Z protests, the link between unemployment and education, and the futility of the manufacturing versus services debate. Plus, the two discuss the exodus of young people from the agricultural sector, the misleading headlines on female labor force participation, and India's acute urban housing shortage. Episode notes: Vidya Mahambare and Vivek Yadav, “Indian farms have been losing their workers—at a time they need the youth to improve farming,” Mint, July 20, 2026. Vidya Mahambare and Vivek Yadav, “Employed women in Uttar Pradesh—what explains such a large increase within a decade?” Mint, July 1, 2026. Vidya Mahambare and Asrar Alam, “Elusive jobs: how AI will demand even greater patience of India's unemployed youth,” Mint May 11, 2026. Vidya Mahambare and Poonam Munjal, “Are young Indians under or overworked? Both are true but AI may change work hours as we go along,” Mint, April 14, 2026. Vidya Mahambare, “Urbanization pressure: India's housing policy needs a rethink,” Mint, April 22, 2024. Vidya Mahambare et al., “The employment profile of India's young adults,” Hindu Business Line, May 5, 2026. At 11:29 in the recording, the guest misspoke when she said: “By 2025, we want to have a 50% of higher education rate in India." She later clarified that she meant to say 2035, not 2025.
In Episode 203 of Facts vs Feelings, Carson Group's Ryan Detrick, Chief Market Strategist, and Sonu Varghese, Chief Macro Strategist, tackle a surprise caller's question on why oil and gas prices aren't higher given ongoing disruptions in the Strait of Hormuz. The hosts break down global oil dynamics, including China's massive strategic petroleum reserves, economic cooling,and EV adoption, as well as the impact of refining margins ("crack spreads") and Ukrainian strikes on Russian refineries.Later in the episode, the team pays tribute to the legendary Dolly Parton and uses her timeless wisdom ("if you want the rainbow, you gotta put up with the rain") to frame long-term market resilience. Plus, they recap a surprisingly strong August for equities, analyze the tech sector's software surge, review blockbuster Nvidia earnings, and look back at historical market shocks like the 1998 Long-Term Capital Management crisis.[Key Takeaways]Despite severe supply shocks in the Strait of Hormuz, global oil prices have been cushioned by China's strategic petroleum reserves (SPR), slower domestic economic growth, and aggressive moves into electric vehicles (EVs).Elevated gas and diesel prices at the pump are driven not only by crude oil costs, but also by high refining margins ("crack spreads"), which have remained stretched due to attacks on Russian refining infrastructure.Defying historical seasonal weakness, the S&P 500 gained roughly 2.7% in August. Leadership rotated beyond chip stocks into beaten-down areas like equal-weight software, cybersecurity, and energy.Nvidia posted record quarterly revenue of $96.2 billion (up 106% year-over-year), with CEO Jensen Huang emphasizing that demand and AI compute acceleration remain robust.Referencing historical events like the 1998 Long-Term Capital Management crisis, the hosts remind investors that every year features scary headlines and bad days, but long-term investors must endure short-term "rain" to capture market gains.Jump to:0:00 — Surprise Caller on Gas Prices1:35 — Why Oil Is Not $2004:10 — China's Demand and SPR Release6:10 — Crack Spreads and Refining Margins8:02 — Listener Shoutouts and Bike Bus9:28 — Dolly Parton and Market Perspective13:31 — 1998 LTCM and Bad Market Days15:35 — August Recap and Sector Leaders18:40 — Software Surge and AI Agents22:41 — Nvidia Earnings and AI Demand31:59 — Vendor Financing Hidden in Footnotes39:12 — Jackson Hole and Rate Uncertainty49:57 — Rising Yields and 1990s Parallels58:21 — Jobs Data Risks and September Myths1:07:23 — ISM Signals Hot Growth and WrapConnect with Ryan:• LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/ryandetrick/• X: https://x.com/RyanDetrickConnect with Sonu:• LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/sonu-varghese-phd/• X: https://x.com/sonusvarghese?lang=enQuestions about the show?

Are Influencers Dying? Why Brands Are Spending Billions on the New Creator Economy The era of the influencer may be ending—but influence itself is bigger business than ever. Social media has changed dramatically, and the creators who once dominated Instagram, YouTube and TikTok are discovering that simply showing off a fabulous lifestyle isn't enough anymore. So what happened to the traditional influencer—and where did their audiences go? Social media began as a place to share photos, friends and everyday life. Then came influencers: creators who attracted enormous audiences, landed lucrative brand deals and turned online popularity into an industry worth billions. But audiences changed. Today, people increasingly want creators to teach them something, entertain them, offer expertise, build community—or be so compelling that they simply can't look away. At the same time, brands continue pouring billions into creator and influencer marketing. So is the influencer dying—or simply evolving? On today's The Karel Cast, Karel is joined by two guests who understand this transformation from very different perspectives: Andrew Selepak of the University of Florida, an expert on social media, digital culture and communication, joins the conversation to examine how influencer culture has changed and what audiences and advertisers want now. Alison Malone, a former television news journalist, podcaster and influencer, brings the perspective of someone who has worked in both traditional and digital media. Together, they explore the changing creator economy, influencer marketing, social media algorithms, TikTok, Instagram, YouTube, brand partnerships and online trends—and why influence reaches far beyond the people who actually follow creators. Influencers can help drive everything from fashion and consumer purchases to major diet and fitness trends such as the explosion of interest in protein and creatine. And through partnerships with major companies, their influence can reach consumers who don't even use social media. The influencer isn't necessarily disappearing. The definition of an influencer is changing. Who wins in this new creator economy? What happens to traditional influencers? What are brands looking for now? And where does social media go next? Let's talk about it. Join the conversation in the comments. LIKE this video, SUBSCRIBE to The Karel Cast and SHARE it with someone who has an opinion.

The Pacific Northwest has a copper theft problem. Seattle police say this type of crime has increased 300% in the city since 2016. And it's hitting Seattle's mom and pop shops especially hard, because often they're the target of these robberies. We're in the midst of a big shift from a fossil fuel-based economy to one powered by electricity. And that's made copper more valuable than ever. On today's episode, why is copper theft surging in the PNW? And can anything be done about it? Do you have a story idea for us? Give us a call at (206) 221-7158 and leave a voicemail.

The Conference Board's Erik Lundh and Kingsview Wealth Management's Scott Martin describe the U.S. economy as cooling but not collapsing, with expanding factory orders offset by a softer jobs market. Both agree the Fed lacks enough data to call September's meeting, making next week's PPI and CPI reports critical for inflation insights.======== Schwab Network ========Empowering every investor and trader, every market day.

Today’s episode of Spotlight Now looks at the current state of Hawaiʻi’s economy and tourism trends. Recent state data indicating more visitors came to the islands in July but stayed for fewer days. The figures show the state lost more than one million visitor days with growth concentrated on neighbor islands, leaving Waikīkī with a lackluster summer. Carl Bonham, executive director of the University of Hawaiʻi Economic Research Organization (UHERO), sets the big picture of Hawaiʻi’s economy with U.S. visitors now accounting for more than 80% of visitor spending.
