Send a textThe crew sits down with Josh Green—active-duty Army Warrant Officer, content creator, voice actor, and father, best known online as @OnexPunchxDad. What starts with military satire and why his humor resonates across every branch turns into a deeper conversation about fatherhood, masculinity, creativity, and responsibility. Josh breaks down how accidental virality collided with real-world consequences, why being an active-duty service member shapes what he will and won't post, and how balancing military service, creative work, and family forces hard choices. From raising boys with emotional intelligence, to navigating outrage culture, AI-generated media, and the pressure to perform online, this episode is funny, grounded, and honest. Influence fades.

Today's guest is Jim Reid, Global Head of Macro Research at Deutsche Bank. In today's episode, Jim walks through lessons from his annual report, The Ultimate Guide to Long-Term Investing, which covers over 200 years of market data from 56 countries. He explains why cash is one of the riskiest long-term assets, how inflation quietly destroys wealth, and why valuation is the single most reliable predictor of long-term returns. He also discusses how fiat money has reshaped bonds, gold, and equities since 1971. To close, Jim reminds us that history consistently rewards investors who buy cheap, diversify globally, and respect long-term market cycles.

Have you ever wondered what it would be like to be afraid of the very foods that are supposed to nourish you because no matter what it is you eat, you get violently ill? To be told “You look healthy”, “Drink more water”, “Sounds like stress” by doctor after doctor so many times that you start to question your own sanity? To lose your job due to your inability to tell your new employer the reason why you're sick all the time — an answer you yourself will not get for another three years?

In a world dominated by short-termism, does it seem odd that private equity holding periods are getting longer? Private equity professionals don't have different genes than other investors. They face a structural problem: too many portfolio companies cannot find a buyer. Private equity-owned businesses continue to grow in number and size, but demand from IPOs and strategics has not – and likely will not – keep up. This means that more companies will have to remain within the private equity ecosystem. The end of the private equity bottleneck is not in sight. Instead, the industry may be heading toward structural change. In this WTT – Can Private Markets Normalize, I pose the question of whether private equity will ever be able recycle capital fast enough to support successive fundraises without strain. The answer, I'm afraid, is no. Read Ted's blog here. Editing and post-production work for this episode was provided by The Podcast Consultant (https://thepodcastconsultant.com)

Why clarity and authenticity matter more than ever in modern communication.Clear communication in the age of likes, LLMs, and constant noise isn't about talking more. For Nick Thompson, it's about being unmistakably clear and unmistakably yourself.Thompson, CEO of The Atlantic and former editor-in-chief of Wired, has spent his career shaping stories that hold attention. “Clear beats clever,” he says, stressing that authenticity and specificity are what make messages land. “If you can get across what you're really trying to say— if you can say it honestly, specifically, and ideally briefly—that's good. And if you can say it in a way that feels like you, that's great.”Beyond journalism, Thompson is an elite marathon runner, ranking among the top competitive runners in the world, an identity that, for him, isn't separate from writing or leadership but deeply connected to it. “[Running] has taught me all kinds of habits of mind and discipline and pacing,” he says, “There are all kinds of lessons from the sport that apply to my business life.”In this episode of Think Fast, Talk Smart, Thompson joins host Matt Abrahams to share how great communicators craft “sticky” ideas without chasing soundbites. From practical editorial tests to the importance of editing, structure, and authenticity, Thompson offers a roadmap for communication that doesn't just get noticed but lasts.Episode Reference Links:Nick ThompsonNick's Book: The Running GroundEp.183 Rethinks: How Anxiety Can Fuel Better Communication Connect:Premium Signup >>>> Think Fast Talk Smart PremiumEmail Questions & Feedback >>> hello@fastersmarter.ioEpisode Transcripts >>> Think Fast Talk Smart WebsiteNewsletter Signup + English Language Learning >>> FasterSmarter.ioThink Fast Talk Smart >>> LinkedIn, Instagram, YouTubeMatt Abrahams >>> LinkedInChapters:(00:00) - Introduction (04:10) - Good Communication in the Modern Day (04:52) - Finding Your Authentic Voice (05:59) - The Power of Editing (07:43) - Reading Your Writing Out Loud (09:36) - How to Create “Sticky” Content (10:58) - AI's Role in Journalism & Communication (13:01) - Using AI in Daily Life (13:45) - Running As Meditation (17:22) - What Running Teaches About Simplicity (18:57) - The Final Three Questions (23:15) - Conclusion ********Thank you to our sponsors.

In this teaser episode of Ave Explores: Lent with Fr. Patrick Mary Briscoe, OP, host Katie McGrady sits down with Fr. Gregory Pine, OP, to name a familiar tension: many of us resist Lent, even while longing for the work God wants to do in us. Prayer, fasting, and almsgiving aren't ends in themselves—they're pathways into deeper participation in the divine life and a renewed ability to recognize God in the ordinary. Fr. Gregory invites us to begin simply, with an honest prayer: Lord, I need you. This conversation sets the tone for our Lenten series inspired by Fr. Patrick Mary Briscoe's book Witness. Throughout Lent, we'll walk alongside those who encountered the Passion firsthand, with weekly videos featuring Fr. Patrick and companion podcast episodes with guests including Bishop Andrew Cozzens, Meg Hunter-Kilmer, Ali Hoffman, Fr. Jerónimo Espinosa, Laura Fanucci, and more. This Lent, don't get stuck in what you dislike about the season. Let God meet you where you are—and lead you where he is calling you to go. Get your copy of Witness today, with a foreword by Jonathan Roumie from The Chosen. We would love it if you could leave a written review on Apple and share with your friends!

John is joined by Christopher L. Eisgruber, President of Princeton University and author of Terms of Respect: How Colleges Get Free Speech Right. They discuss the state of free speech on university campuses. While public perception often emphasizes crisis and failure, many institutions are upholding speech rights more effectively than they are credited for. The broad constitutional principles of free expression, protecting even offensive or unsettling speech, are a good starting place for academic environments. However, these principles alone are insufficient. Universities must also foster a culture of mutual respect, encouraging civil discourse and meaningful dialogue even amid disagreement.Some of the specific challenges universities face in the current polarized political climate include the impact of the Israel–Gaza conflict, protests, donor pressures, and calls for institutional statements. Institutions must balance their commitment to free expression with efforts to elevate discourse and promote inclusive learning environments. Chris believes that university leaders should not use censorship as a tool to enforce civility. Instead, they should model and promote norms of respectful engagement.Online culture has intensified the scrutiny of campus speech. Events that once remained local can now gain global attention instantly, raising the stakes for how universities manage protests and controversy. Students today often self-censor due to fears of online backlash, which complicates efforts to foster open exchanges of ideas.A tension exists between scholarly standards and political identity in faculty hiring. While Chris acknowledges there is an ideological imbalance in American universities, he believes that hiring decisions should prioritize scholarly excellence and viewpoint diversity within academic norms, rather than political quotas. John and Chris also discuss how and when university leaders should speak publicly on societal issues. While university presidents should not weigh in on every political controversy, there are moments, particularly when institutional values are at stake, when silence is not tenable. The goal is to preserve the university as a space for rigorous, inclusive, and respectful exploration of ideas.Podcast Link: Law-disrupted.fmHost: John B.

My guests today are Alex Behring and Daniel Schwartz, Co-Managing Partners of 3G Capital. 3G has built one of the most distinctive firms in investing around a simple idea: there are only a handful of truly great businesses and even fewer great CEOs. Their model is to raise capital with the intention of making just one investment per fund, commit meaningful amounts of their own money alongside their partners, and focus all of their time and best people on that single opportunity. Their approach has produced a series of iconic deals, including Burger King, Tim Hortons, Hunter Douglas, and Skechers. They have also become known for developing talent early, giving young leaders real responsibility and ownership, and holding an unusually high bar. Once you've heard from Alex and Daniel, I highly recommend you read our in-depth profile on them and 3G Capital. They gave our managing editor Dom Cooke unprecedented access and the outcome is an excellent profile about the fifty year history of 3G and how the model began with Jorge Paulo Lemann in Brazil.

Powerful women don't win on LinkedIn by being louder. They win by being clearer. In this episode of Good Girls Get Rich, I'm breaking down three counter-intuitive shifts powerful women make on LinkedIn—and why they work so well for visibility, authority, and trust. You'll hear why: Editing your message is more powerful than adding more content Authority comes from patterns, not viral posts Pausing (and letting people catch up) is a leadership move, not a weakness If you've ever felt pressure to post more, explain yourself, or chase engagement just to stay visible, this episode will help you rethink everything you've been taught about LinkedIn strategy. This is about signal over numbers, calm confidence over noise, and positioning that makes your success feel inevitable—not desperate. I'll also share what this actually looks like in practice on LinkedIn, and how we work through these shifts inside the Visibility Salon. Listen in, take notes, and then practice this—because power isn't announced. It's inferred.

Guest: Athena Kugblenu — comedian, author, commentator, and former Papercuts podcast regularAthena Kugblenu is a UK-based comedian and writer known for her sharp cultural commentary and her ability to use humor to explore power, media narratives, and social change. In this episode, Athena joins me for a serious AND funny conversation about how veganism is being covered in the news — and what gets lost when complex ideas are flattened into headlines.We talk about:Why declaring “veganism is over” is a lazy media story, Why the real barriers to eating more plants are poverty, time, kitchens, and access, Why the alternative to meat isn't fake meat — it's a completely different way of thinking about food.Along the way, Athena explains why comedy can work when arguments fail, how laughter creates shared reference points, and why humor can help people listen to ideas they might otherwise reject.In this episode, we cover:How veganism became a media narrative instead of a lived practiceWhy the press loves false binaries (“the future” vs. “over”)Veganism, capitalism, and the problem with fake meat“Ingredients households” and why cooking from scratch mattersPoverty and access as the biggest barriers to eating wellComedy as a tool for social changeWhy making people laugh helps them hear uncomfortable truthsWhy this conversation matters right nowAt a time when the news cycle thrives on outrage and oversimplification, this episode offers a steadier lens — one that rejects either/or thinking and makes space for nuance, compassion, and clarity.Notice where headlines try to “bait” you into a binary — about food, politics, identity or anything else.Listener challengeAsk yourself: What's missing from this story?

In this episode of The Turkey Season, Paul sits down with Iowa photographer and farmer Clayton Worrell, better known online as Grizhawk—one of the most recognizable turkey photographers in the space today. Clayton's images aren't about grip-and-grins or highlight reels. They're about quiet moments, hard-earned light, and turkeys simply being turkeys. From frost on a gobbler's back at fly-down, to breath hanging in the cold air, to subtle steps and head tilts that most people miss, Clayton breaks down the patience, planning, and obsession behind capturing a single frame. The conversation wanders—in the best way—through farming, family, photography, hunting evolution, creative standards, social media fatigue, and why sometimes a photograph is just as satisfying as pulling the trigger. Clayton shares how he scouts locations like a hunter, stages photo setups days in advance, and often spends weeks chasing one image that may never happen. They also dig into: Why Clayton hunts less and photographs more as he gets older The frustration (and beauty) of spending days for one usable image Editing photos to feel like art, not just documentation The importance of high standards and refusing to put your name on work you don't believe in How the turkey community differs from whitetails—and why that matters His upcoming gallery-style booth at the NWTF Convention in Nashville This is a laid-back, honest conversation about creativity, patience, and what it really means to appreciate wild turkeys beyond the moment of the shot. If you've ever watched a bird through binoculars instead of shouldering a gun—or felt more pride in earning a moment than owning it—this one's for you. Learn more about your ad choices.

Many patients will affirm seeing clouds shaped like animals or other similar phenomena, which is why confirming pareidolia (seeing meaningful images in meaningless visual stimuli) is such a tricky symptom in dementia with Lewy bodies (DLB). While it may not be exclusive to DLB, placing such symptoms in the context of "the company it keeps" is a key method to narrowing down the diagnosis. The Editors' Choice paper for the February 2026 issue of Practical Neurology is a practical guide to the clinical diagnosis and management of DLB. Authors Dr. Sarah Fullam¹ ² and Dr. Seán O'Dowd¹ ³ join PN podcast editor Dr. Amy Ross Russell to discuss their work. They describe the importance of the initial examination, from the patient's gait to difficulties in word retrieval. They also touch on challenges in the use of biomarkers, which drugs may be helpful, and how to advise patients and their carers.

Matt Whineray is the CEO of New Zealand Superannuation Fund or Super Fund, one of the highest performing, most innovative and well-regarded large-scale investment allocators in the world. The New Zealand government created the Super Fund in 2001 to help defray the costs of retirees in the country in the decades to come. Matt joined the organization in 2008 and became the CEO in 2018 and oversees NZ$42 billion. Our conversation starts with Matt's background and the creation and objectives of the Super Fund. We then walk through the Super Fund's investment philosophy, which is guided by four competitive advantages or endowments and nine investment beliefs. From there, we dive into the implementation of the strategy, covering the risk allocation process, reference portfolio or benchmark of liquid assets, long-term risk budget and medium-term tactical targets across five risk baskets. We discuss the difference between these risk allocations and a traditional asset class structure, hybrid structure employing internal and external managers, internal strategic tilting program, structure of the team, current perspectives on asset classes, ESG, scaling activities to support upcoming inflows, and culture.

Editing is a powerful tool we use to figure out what works, what doesn't and what we should spend our energy on next. And it works for physical spaces like a silverware drawer and for our values and mental loads. Today, Jessica and Michelle discuss the POP method for editing. It starts with taking everything out, evaluating what you're working with, and putting back only what helps you thrive in your current season. We also talk about the Traffic Light Method for evaluating your commitments, how to talk about the mental load with your partner (and actually let some of it be carried by someone else), and pursuing clarity of purpose in all the incessant pinging of information Quoted Jenna O'Brien from her Substack.

Stories are how we learn who we are, who belongs, and who we're taught to fear. Some stories are inherited so early they feel like truth. Others begin to fracture only when lived reality no longer matches what we were told.In this episode we're joined by Becca Strober, an educator and organizer whose life has been shaped by the slow, painful unraveling of the stories they grew up with. From Jerusalem to the U.S., from Zionist education to military service, Becca traces the moments where ideology met reality, and where the language of security, morality, and defense gave way to the lived experience of occupation, apartheid, and the continuing Nakba.The conversation moves through memory and encounter: the normalization of control in the West Bank, the legal architecture of military rule, and the quiet ways dehumanization is taught and sustained. Becca reflects on what it means to realize that participation in a system of violence doesn't always look like cruelty. Sometimes it looks like routine, obedience, and silence.This is an episode about unlearning, the cost of seeing clearly and about what becomes possible when justice is no longer treated as abstract. Becca speaks about the role of education as disruption, about solidarity as practice rather than sentiment, and about the importance of showing up on the ground, not to lead, but to stand alongside. It asks what safety really means, who it is built for, and whether a future rooted in equality between the river and the sea can exist without first confronting the stories that brought us here.Episode Links:Becca Explains the OccupationBreaking the SilenceCenter for Jewish NonviolenceTa'ayushRabbis for Human RightsAchvat AmimThe Disillusioned PodcastDisclaimer: This episode was recorded on October 8, 2025.

John is joined by Christopher G. Michel, partner in Quinn Emanuel's Washington, D.C. office and Co-Chair of the firm's National Appellate Practice. They discuss Michel's team's recent victory before the Delaware Supreme Court, reinstating Elon Musk's Tesla compensation package, now valued at $139 billion, the largest compensation dispute in corporate history. The 2018 pay package required Musk to meet extremely ambitious growth milestones, including doubling Tesla's size over a ten-year period, before receiving any compensation. After that, there were a series of 12 levels of compensation corresponding to 12 further growth milestones. The Tesla Board approved the package, as did the shareholders with 70% support. He ultimately achieved all the required milestones, growing the company from $50 billion to over $1 trillion in four years. Despite that, a Tesla shareholder owning just nine shares brought a derivative suit, alleging the board breached its fiduciary duties in approving the package. The Delaware Chancery Court found Musk to be a “controlling stockholder” due to his 21% ownership, close relationships with directors, and status as a “superstar CEO.” As a result, the court applied the “entire fairness” standard, under which defendants must prove that a transaction was entirely fair to the shareholders, and found the package did not meet that standard. The court reasoned that Tesla could have obtained Musk's services for less or even for free, citing other CEOs who had worked without compensation. It also ruled that shareholder approval was invalid due to inadequate proxy disclosures, including the omission of details about Musk's social ties with board members. The court rescinded the entire compensation package and awarded the plaintiff's counsel $345 million in attorneys' fees.On appeal, the defense team focused on three main arguments: Musk was not a controlling stockholder, the package met the entire fairness standard, and even if there was a violation, rescission was not an appropriate remedy. The Delaware Supreme Court reversed, holding that rescission was unwarranted and awarding nominal damages of $1. It reinstated the pay package, now valued at $139 billion. It also reduced the attorneys' fee award to $54 million. The case has influenced legislative changes in Delaware corporate law regarding the definition of controlling shareholders and shareholder ratification.Podcast Link: Law-disrupted.fmHost: John B.

Ben Felix and Braden Warwick are joined by Dr. Charles Chaffin, a leading voice in financial psychology, to explore why investors so often act against their own best interests—and how better tools and frameworks can help bridge the gap between rational plans and real human behavior. The conversation blends behavioral finance, goal setting, and risk profiling, while also introducing a new evidence-based risk tolerance questionnaire now being made publicly available to listeners. The episode digs into why humans are wired for short-term survival rather than long-term optimization, how biases and environment shape financial decisions, and why coaching—not transactions—is becoming the advisor's most important role. Charles explains concepts like money scripts, financial flashpoints, identity-based goals, and financial self-efficacy, tying them directly to investing behavior and client outcomes. The discussion also goes deep on financial risk tolerance: what it really is, why people consistently misjudge it, and why psychometric tools outperform traditional questionnaires.

Today we have a special episode breaking down how investors are using AI. This is a question I get from many of you, and while there is no shortage of content on the implications of AI, I know there's an appetite to learn more about tangible use cases, how to make sure you're getting the most out of these tools, how to think about advancements in the technology, and ensuring that you're keeping pace with the innovation curve. So my guest today is David Plon, Founder of Portrait Analytics. Now, David and Portrait have been partners of Business Breakdowns since last year, but I specifically asked David to do this episode because, one, he is really front and center to how investors are using and applying AI. But two, and maybe more importantly, he and his team come with a background in investing. So while the conversation doesn't really focus on Portrait, you'll hear references to what he and his team are building and how they've shaped it for investors, you'll very much understand when you hear David talk that he is someone who understands the pain points of an investor. I think everyone will find something in this episode that will benefit them in their day to day, and I would love to hear the feedback.
