In this week's FOLLOW UP, Bitcoin is down 15%, miners are unplugging rigs because paying eighty-seven grand to mine a sixty-grand coin finally failed the vibes check, and Grok is still digitally undressing men—suggesting Musk's “safeguards” remain mostly theoretical, which didn't help when X offices got raided in France. Spain wants to ban social media for kids under 16, Egypt is blocking Roblox outright, and governments everywhere are flailing at the algorithmic abyss.IN THE NEWS, Elon Musk is rolling xAI into SpaceX to birth a $1.25 trillion megacorp that wants to power AI from orbit with a million satellites, because space junk apparently wasn't annoying enough. Amazon admits a “high volume” of CSAM showed up in its AI training data and blames third parties, Waymo bags a massive $16 billion to insist robotaxis are working, Pinterest reportedly fires staff who built a layoff-tracking tool, and Sam Altman gets extremely cranky about Claude's Super Bowl ads hitting a little too close to home.For MEDIA CANDY, we've got Shrinking, the Grammys, Star Trek: Starfleet Academy's questionable holographic future, Neil Young gifting his catalog to Greenland while snubbing Amazon, plus Is It Cake?

We round it out with RentAHuman.ai dread relief via paper airplane databases, free Roller Coaster Tycoon, and Sir Ian McKellen on Colbert—still classy in the digital wasteland.Sponsors:DeleteMe - Get 20% off your DeleteMe plan when you go to JoinDeleteMe.com/GOG and use promo code GOG at checkout.SquareSpace - go to squarespace.com/GRUMPY for a free trial.

A new tranche of Jeffrey Epstein's emails makes one thing painfully clear: Epstein was a central figure in the lives of a lot of big names in tech, and had influence on a surprising number of companies and executives. David and Nilay talk through what we've learned from the new emails so far. Then they turn to Anthropic's spicy new Super Bowl ads about... ads, which caused a big reaction from OpenAI (which is betting big on ads). They also discuss this week's antitrust hearing about Netflix's purchase of Warner Bros., the latest in Brendan Carr is a Dummy, Google Home's big buttons upgrade, and much more. Further reading: Here's how Epstein broke the internet Former Windows 8 boss recruited Epstein to help negotiate his messy Microsoft exit Jeffrey Epstein arranged a meeting with Tim Cook for the former head of Windows The Epstein files Google co-founder Sergey Brin visited Epstein's private island and traded emails with Ghislaine Maxwell.

Dear Humans, Today on The God Show, Jesus and I covered the National Prayer Breakfast, where Donald Trump did his usual holy cosplay while the Epstein story keeps tightening around his neck. At one point he literally told the country to "move on," which is a totally normal thing to say when you're innocent. Then the opening prayer happened. Rep. Jonathan Jackson stood right in front of Trump and prayed for him to find compassion, courage, and clarity, while directly referencing the families burying their loved ones in Minneapolis. In other words: he told Donald to stop being a monster, right to his stupid face. Watching that evil bastard stew through it was pure catharsis. (NOTE: The prayer begins around the 18 minute mark). On today's episode of The God Show, Jesus and I also covered: Trump throwing Pam Bondi under the bus while trying to create legal cover for the Georgia election raid Trump attacking Kaitlan Collins for asking about Epstein survivors, including the "they released too much" lie AI misinformation Epstein distractions and Zoran Mamdani's response A quick run through headlines, including Dem leaders caving on the mask ban for federal immigration agents, GOP retirements, and Elon getting ordered to sit for a deposition
Join Jim and Greg for the Friday 3 Martini Lunch as they react to Virginia Democrats' aggressive gerrymandering of congressional districts, Russia's escalating mischief online and in space, and New Jersey Democrats once again showing how far the party continues to lurch to the left.First, they unload on Virginia Democrats for transforming a fairly competitive state into a convoluted congressional map that could give Democrats control of ten of the state's eleven House seats. Jim and Greg walk through the most absurd district lines and skewer the flimsy explanations Democrats are offering for this blatant power grab.Next, they chronicle the many ways Russia is attempting to meddle with its adversaries through cyber warfare, satellite interference, and other destabilizing tactics. New reports suggest Moscow is targeting Italy during the Olympics and is even floating threats involving a nuclear attack in space aimed at disrupting Elon Musk's Starlink network.Finally, they dissect the surprising results in a New Jersey special congressional primary where a far-left candidate is now poised to defeat a heavily favored, more moderate Democrat. Jim and Greg explain why the upset is another sign that much of the Democratic Party's energy is increasingly aligned with a more radical vision for the country.Please visit our great sponsors:Skip the hassle and book a top-rated doctor in seconds with Zocdoc.

On this week's “Marketplace Tech Bytes: Week in Review,” we take a look at Nvidia's changing investment relationship with OpenAI. Plus, a stormy start for the new U.S. version of TikTok. But first, SpaceX, one of the world's largest rocket companies, announced this week that it's buying xAI, a two-and-half-year-old artificial intelligence startup. Both companies are controlled by Elon Musk. The new company is reportedly valued at $1.25 trillion. It means the chatbot Grok, the satellite internet company Starlink, and the social media firm X are all going to co-exist under the same rocket hangar. Marketplace's Stephanie Hughes spoke with Paresh Dave, senior writer at Wired, about what adding these companies together equals.

Washington Post Wreckage. Bezos the New Bad Guy? Independent Media's Moment. US Russia Nuke Treaty Expires. Nancy Guthrie Rivets Nation. Fallout & Rising Hatred for Corporations. NBA Trade Madness. The news is flying. And we're keeping you ahead of it. And focused on what matters most. Paul is joined by the venerable Chuck Todd—host of the Chuck Toddcast and former moderator of NBC's Meet the Press and more— for a raw, candid, often funny kitchen-table conversation America needs right now that takes you behind the curtain on media, news and politics. They break down ICE agents leaving “death cards” with white supremacist history, detaining citizens, and now, local cops; Jeff Bezos's gutting of the Washington Post and layoffs hitting reporters in war zones; and how billionaire power—from Bezos and Musk to Trump—is hollowing out the Fourth Estate and putting our democracy, national security, and truth itself up for sale. They also unpack the TV show Fallout's dystopian world of bunkered elites and abandoned wastelands, and what it reveals about America's rapidly-growing anti-corporate mood cutting across all political lines. Together, Paul and Chuck go hard at the rise of independent voters and candidates, the promise of open primaries and mayors, and the pivotal role veterans and independent leaders will play in the next political realignment. They talk Jesse Ventura, Ross Perot, Bill McRaven, The Rock, Mark Cuban, Matthew McConaughey, Dan Osborne, Todd Achilles, and the real possibility that a celebrity or billionaire like Elon Musk or Jeff Bezos could hijack—or turbocharge—the independent movement. If you're furious at ICE, worried about the attacks on the press, disgusted with both parties, and hungry for independent, patriotic analysis that refuses to bow to the Democratic Party, the Republican Party, Trump, Bezos, Musk or any corporate overlord, this episode is for you—and a call to declare your independence, stay vigilant, and choose country over party, people over politics, and light over heat. Because every episode of Independent Americans with Paul Rieckhoff breaks down the most important news stories--and offers light to contrast the heat of other politics and news shows. It's independent content for independent Americans. In these trying times especially, Independent Americans is your trusted place for independent news, politics, inspiration and hope.

While the concept of robots supplanting humans may seem the stuff of science fiction, it is in fact advancing rapidly in all sorts of real-world applications – healthcare, manufacturing, even warfare. Allison Okamura, a Hoover science fellow, Stanford University engineering professor and contributor to this year's Stanford Emerging Technology Review (SETR), discusses robotics' growth in present-day and future societies. Among the topics discussed: how the 10 science and technology reports within the SETR review are interwoven; the integration of robotics into everyday life; a “100,000-year data gap” and massive shortage of training data for physical robot manipulation; Elon Musk's new Optimus Gen 3 model and the feasibility of robotic workforces; the public's comfort level with autonomous technology (would you take a Waymo to the airport?); what the future may hold (better robotic “brains” and “bodies” and soft shape-changing fabrics, greater intelligence and physical autonomy, improvements in robotic hands and humanoids' dexterous manipulation).

This is a free preview of a paid episode. To hear more, visit zeteo.comAs one of the co-hosts of the massively popular podcast ‘I've Had It', Jennifer Welch has made a name for herself as a sharp-witted, foul-mouthed, uncomfortable-truth-bomb-dropping political commentator. Whether you've seen social media clips of her ranting about Donald Trump's poorly applied makeup or watched her eviscerate Sen. Cory Booker on AIPAC during their viral interview, Jennifer is shaking up the way liberal media thinks about political punditry. Now, she joins Mehdi on ‘We're Not Kidding' to talk about her political journey and rise to fame. Once an “MSNBC liberal” from the Bible Belt, Mehdi and Jennifer discuss her evolution on issues like corporate influence on the Democratic party and Israel-Palestine. They also get into the recent dump of Epstein files, including Elon Musk's “pathetic” attempt to get an invite to Epstein's island on Christmas, and how Joe Biden and the Democrats once again fumbled the ball. “Merrick Garland had these files for four f*****g years and didn't do anything with it!” Jennifer says.The two also discuss:- How atheism influences Jennifer's politics (and religion influences Mehdi's!).- Why Trump appeals to evangelical Christians.- Scott Jennings, Jesse Watters, and why Republican men are “submissive.”- Whether Epstein was a Mossad spy.- Which national Democrats should be “remodeled” and which should “retire.”Subscribe to Zeteo to support independent and unfiltered journalism: https://zeteo.com/subscribeWatch, listen and subscribe to ‘We're Not Kidding' on Substack: https://zeteo.com/s/were-not-kidding-with-mehdi-and-friendsFind Zeteo:Twitter: https://twitter.com/zeteo_newsInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/zeteonewsTikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@zeteonewsFind Mehdi:Substack: https://substack.com/@mehdirhasanTwitter: https://twitter.com/@mehdirhasanInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/@mehdirhasanTikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@mehdirhasanFind Jennifer:‘I've Had It': https://ivehaditpodcast.com/Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/mizzwelch/?hl=enCredits:Hosted by: Mehdi HasanGuest Host: Jennifer WelchExecutive Producer: Kiran AlviSenior Producer and Editor: Frank CappelloMusic: Andy ClausenDesign: Alicia TatoneMix Engineer: Valentino RiveraTitle Animation: Ehsaan Mesghali

Is God Warning Us About AI? The Biblical Case for Preparing Now! Before every major disruption in Scripture—famine, flood, exile—God warned His people first. Those who listened didn't just survive… they thrived. So what if we're living in one of those moments right now? In this episode, Bob and Linda wrestle with a question many Christians are quietly asking: What does the rise of AI mean for our work, our finances, and our faith—and how should God's people respond? This isn't fear-based. It's faith-filled preparation. From Joseph storing grain before the famine, to Noah building the ark long before the rain, to Jesus warning His followers before Jerusalem fell—Scripture shows a consistent pattern: preparation is not a lack of faith; it's often the clearest expression of it. In this episode, we cover: Why AI disruption isn't "coming someday" — it's already here What experts (and business owners) are seeing happen to jobs in real time Elon Musk's claim that work may soon be optional—and what that could mean short-term The biblical pattern of warning → preparation → provision Why the story of Joseph matters more now than ever The tension between trusting God and taking wise action How AI might affect not just our work—but our walk with the Lord Why the Holy Spirit can never be replaced (no matter how advanced technology gets) A key idea from the episode: Preparation is the expression of faith when God gives a warning. The goal isn't panic. It's prayer. Not prediction—but discernment. The question we want you to sit with this week: If you knew your income could be reduced or eliminated in the next few years, what would you do right now? We're not giving a one-size-fits-all plan—because this is something only God can speak into personally. But we are inviting you to slow down, get quiet, and ask Him a simple, powerful question: "Lord, what do You want me to do?" Then listen. Scriptures referenced (NLT): Genesis 41 – Joseph prepares for the famine Proverbs 22:3 – "A prudent person foresees danger and takes precautions…" Luke 12:15–21 – The Rich Fool Luke 21:20–21 – Jesus warns of Jerusalem's destruction Matthew 25:1–13 – The wise and foolish virgins Final encouragement: God is still on the throne. He still provides. And He still speaks to His people. The question isn't whether the world is changing—it is. The question is whether we'll listen, prepare, and walk forward in faith.

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.

Where do we even begin? Over 3 million files and we are just at the tip pf the iceberg. This week we're going over the biggest Epstein related headlines: Epstein swerving Elon, Bill Gates drugging Melinda, files getting deleted in real time, Epstein getting banned from XBOX, and is Epstein really still alive? All we know it it's not a conspiracy anymore.
Erin Ryan and guest host Akilah Hughes lock in and dive deep into the latest Epstein Files dump, following threads between fertility, finances, 4Chan, the FBI, and more. Then they discuss how upcoming entertainment events like the Super Bowl, the Olympics, and the Oscars put athletes and performers in a position they didn't ask for– but also provide an opportunity that shouldn't be missed. They wrap up with a petty conversation about Ballerina Farm and the danger of unlearning things we learned more than 100 years ago.Takeaways from the millions of newly released Epstein files (BBC 2/1)A list of powerful men named in the Epstein files, from Elon Musk to former Prince Andrew (PBS 2/1)Government says it's fixing thousands of documents in Epstein-related files that may have had victim information (PBS 2/3)
SEASON 4 EPISODE 56: COUNTDOWN WITH KEITH OLBERMANN A-Block (2:30) SPECIAL COMMENT: In destroying The Washington Post yesterday, Trump-fluffer Jeff Bezos has gone far enough. Democratic leaders must commit to using anti-trust laws to destroy Amazon, Prime, Blue Origin - and Bezos, financially. Every would-be president, senator, representative must vow to break the oligarchs - Bezos, Musk, Trump, and all the rest. Bezos first hollowed out the Post to make it servile to Trump and his gang. Now he's destroyed its foreign and sports desks, and its viability as a counterweight to the anti-democracy forces abroad in the land. All so he could spend $75,000,000 or more on a vanity project designed to tell Trump a life: that his wife is an attractive "movie star." We are not going back to the America of 1885. We must bankrupt Jeff Bezos. (And I apologize for the slipshod nature of this episode. I'm under the weather, throat bad, was planning to postpone this episode but this could not wait. Please forgive for the extemporaneous nature of the commentary; the rest of the show is interesting but not new) B-Block (30:00) OLYMPICS TIME: As the 2026 games begin in Italy let me take you back to the most famous winter games yet: the 1980 Lake Placid Olympics, which I covered as a 21-year old rookie with United Press International (while my bosses tried to teach me how to work and drink at the same time).

The latest release of the Epstein files has dominated the news this week, with documents related to Bill Gates, Peter Mandelson, Elon Musk and Woody Allen pulling them into the spotlight. But, as the US deputy attorney general Todd Blanche suggested the legal review into the Epstein files was ‘over', the survivors of Epstein's abuse made clear it was not the end. Annie Kelly speaks to Lisa Philips, who suffered years of abuse by Epstein in the 2000s and is now one of the many survivors calling for more transparency from the Trump administration.

Don and Tom take on Elon Musk's claim that AI will make retirement saving obsolete, pushing back hard on the idea that technology or billionaires will somehow fund everyone's future. They examine why universal basic income is politically and mathematically unrealistic, remind listeners that past tech revolutions didn't magically create widespread wealth, and reinforce the importance of steady, diversified investing. The episode also tackles listener questions on HSAs, 529 rollovers, taxable account strategy, and tax efficiency, while weaving in commentary on work, purpose, behavior, and—once again—the ongoing menace of gas-powered leaf blowers. 0:04 Fear of AI and its supposed impact on money and jobs 1:52 Elon Musk's claim that retirement saving will become irrelevant 2:59 Why billionaires don't like sharing wealth 4:29 Historical tax rates and wealth distribution 6:21 Business Insider survey: 94% still plan to save 8:45 Why tech revolutions don't eliminate financial risk 9:59 Work, purpose, and retirement psychology 10:33 Universal basic income math and tax reality 11:54 Luddites and historical job displacement 12:55 Listener questions segment begins 13:18 HSA invested in Fidelity target-date fund 17:38 Overfunded 529 plans and Roth rollover rules 20:45 Taxable account strategy and balanced funds 23:28 Asset location and tax efficiency 24:49 Finding fund returns on Morningstar 25:46 Tom's Scottsdale meetings 26:45 War on gas-powered leaf blowers Learn more about your ad choices.

We hear from many quarters that "AI will destroy the world," but everyone's got a different scenario for what that means. The most sensational perspectives come from theorists like Geoffrey Hinton, the so-called "godfather of AI" or industrialists like Elon Musk. They warn us that one day, a superintelligent AI could replace human beings in controlling the planet. But we don't need to conjecture into the future. The scorched-earth destruction is already happening now. Jobs are hemorrhaging with no sign of return; data centers are turning U.S. farmlands into barren industrial gulags while consuming record levels of power, spewing volumes of carbon and using up our last freshwater sources; fusillades of deep-fake videos politically paralyze the public; an AI surveillance infrastructure is being constructed that will lock in fascism; and algorithms are telling ICE and the IDF who lives and who dies. It seems all too overwhelming. However, by tracing AI's lineage to the development of the atom bomb -- with the same ideologies and twisted logic -- it becomes apparent that solutions to the AI dilemma can also be found in nuclear history, in its disarmament successes.
The Bulletproof Dental Podcast Episode 424 HOSTS: Dr. Peter Boulden and Dr. Craig Spodak DESCRIPTION In this episode of the Bulletproof Dental Practice Podcast, Craig Spodak and Peter Boulden discuss various aspects of running a successful dental practice, focusing on the importance of hygiene, incentives for staff, and the challenges of scaling. They explore the disconnect in dental hygiene practices, the need for alignment within teams, and the potential for burnout in the profession. The conversation emphasizes the value of creating a robust business model that prioritizes general dentistry and hygiene, while also allowing for specialization when appropriate. The hosts encourage listeners to pivot and adapt their business strategies to ensure long-term success and satisfaction in their dental careers. TAKEAWAYS Sales-based jobs often yield better results in dentistry. There is a significant disconnect in dental hygiene practices. Incentives are crucial for performance in dental teams. Simplistic and replicable business models scale faster. A strong hygiene program can drive restorative work. Burnout in dentistry often stems from high complexity and stress. Alignment within teams is essential for success. Dentists have the power to pivot their business models. A robust hygiene program can enhance practice profitability.

TRIGGER WARNING: Discussion of sexual abuse and crimes against minors. After 20 minutes of updates on current events, we dive into a new batch of approximately 3.5 million files, released at the end of January, and compare the communications of powerful people and Epstein with their backpedaling public statements. Specifically, Bill Gates and the email that alleges his extramarital affairs and an STD, Elon Musk's social outings and enthusiastic endeavors to visit Epstein's island, current Secretary of Commerce Howard Lutnick's family trip to the island, Epstein's ongoing emails with Peter Thiel, and enlightening commentary by Deepak Choprah. Also, an unexpected name in an email chain kicks off a side quest into how several Bravolebrities are connected to the manager of a global sex trafficking ring.

Comenzaremos la primera parte del programa de hoy discutiendo la actualidad. Hay una creciente indignación contra las fuerzas de inmigración y de aduanas estadounidenses, también conocidas como el ICE. Está habiendo protestas contra el ICE no solo en EE. UU., sino en todo el mundo. La segunda noticia trata sobre la posible prohibición del acceso de los niños a las redes sociales en Europa. España planea prohibir las redes sociales a los menores de 16 años. En toda Europa se están planteando medidas similares. A continuación, hablaremos de un gran cambio en Tesla. Su director ejecutivo, Elon Musk, ha decidido cambiar el rumbo de Tesla, orientando la compañía hacia los robots producidos en masa y alejándola de la fabricación de coches. Y, para acabar, hablaremos de una tendencia que a muchos nos entristece. En toda Francia, los restaurantes tradicionales están cerrando a un ritmo alarmante, de unos 25 al día. La situación viene causada por el aumento de los costes, la reducción de los beneficios y los cambios en los hábitos de la gente cuando sale a comer. El resto del episodio de hoy lo dedicaremos a la lengua y la cultura españolas. La primera conversación incluirá ejemplos del tema de gramática de la semana, The Future Perfect Subjunctive. En esta conversación hablaremos de la Ley de IA, una norma europea reguladora de la inteligencia artificial. España la ha adaptado introduciendo medidas propias. Sin embargo, la tecnología avanza tan rápido que no sabemos si su eficacia será del todo eficiente. Y, en nuestra última conversación, aprenderemos a usar una nueva expresión española, Dar mala espina. La usaremos para hablar de los fichajes de invierno en el fútbol español. El plazo para incorporar nuevos jugadores a los clubes es corto y algunas veces, las negociaciones se alargan hasta el último minuto. En ocasiones, incluso terminan rompiéndose. Creciente indignación internacional contra las prácticas del ICE Europa avanza hacia la prohibición del acceso a las redes sociales a los niños Musk cambia el rumbo de Tesla, orientando la compañía hacia los robots producidos en masa y alejándola de la fabricación de coches El bistró francés desaparece a un ritmo alarmante Ley de la IA en España Fichajes de invierno en el fútbol español
