Andy loved what Vrabel and Maye said in their end of year pressers
The Fat One closes out the 18th year of the LITTLE show with a reminder about the Winter Olympics, the reading of the final entries for the #1 Fan contest and a quick recap of his day. Happy National Chocolate Fondue Day.
National Broadband Ireland (NBI), the company responsible for delivering the Government's National Broadband Plan (NBP), has announced its final quarterly update for the contract year ending 31 January 2026, confirming that all surveying and design work is now complete and that 82% of the entire network is built with those premises available for a connection. The remainder (18%) is under construction with the main infrastructure build scheduled to complete this year. Minister for Arts, Culture, Communications, Media and Sport, Patrick O'Donovan, T.D., said: "The progress being delivered under the National Broadband Plan represents one of the largest and most complex infrastructure projects ever undertaken by the State. With the rollout now running ahead of schedule nationally, the scale of achievement is clear and demonstrates what can be delivered through sustained investment and a strong focus on delivery. "Tens of thousands of kilometres of fibre have been laid, and communities right across the country are now seeing the tangible benefits of high-speed connectivity. This programme is transforming rural Ireland and reflects the Government's commitment to ensuring that every home, farm and business, no matter how remote, can participate fully in Ireland's digital future." Performance update: By contract year end (31 January 2026), NBI has delivered: 100% of all surveying and design work is complete; 100% of the network either built or currently under construction; 451,433 premises passed, representing a 33% year-on-year increase; 164,708 premises connected, representing a 43% year-on-year increase. 63,064km of fibre cable laid, enough to circumnavigate the Earth 1.5 times. There are now 451,433 homes, farms and businesses passed with NBI fibre across the National Broadband Plan Intervention Area. When a premises is passed, an order can be placed to connect to high-speed fibre broadband on the NBI network through a choice of over 50 broadband providers actively selling on the network. According to the recent ComReg Quarterly Report, more than one million premises across Ireland are now subscribed to fibre-to-the-home broadband, and National Broadband Ireland is encouraging premises in the Intervention Area to check availability in their area and order today. TJ Malone, Chief Executive Officer, National Broadband Ireland, said: "This year's results demonstrate the sheer scale and momentum of the National Broadband Plan. With every part of the network now designed and either built or under construction, and over 450,000 premises ready to connect, we are firmly into the final delivery phase of this once-in-a-generation infrastructure project. "More than 164,000 homes, farms and businesses are already connected to high-speed fibre on the NBI network, transforming how people live, work and do business in rural Ireland. With the final phase of construction now underway, we are on track to complete the main rollout by the end of this year." NBI's fibre broadband rollout under the National Broadband Plan is delivering broadband services to what is known as the State's Intervention Area, which includes the most remote and rural parts of Ireland where commercial operators have no plans to deliver high-speed broadband. The Intervention Area now stands at 566,000 premises which signals an increase of c.29,000 since the time of contract signing. People living and working in rural Ireland can enter their Eircode on the NBI website, www.nbi.ie, to check if their home or business is included in the rollout and find out how to get connected. As the main rollout phase of NBI's network nears completion, demand for connections continues to grow strongly. 164,708 premises are now connected to the NBI network, with take-up rates continuing to exceed original projections and international benchmarks, particularly in areas where the network has been live for longer. NBI is now fully focused on the final stages of construction and accelerating conn...

The idea is that, on a regular basis, you look back at what you have just done to learn from it, course-correct, and move forward. So in my monthly retros, I look at the good things that happened, how I performed against my goals, the concerns I currently have, the changes I'm going to make moving forward, and my goals for next month. → Join The Lab → Subscribe to the newsletter → Read my 2025 Year In Review Full transcript and show notes *** TIMESTAMPS (00:00) Reflecting on Growth and Challenges (05:27) Strong Year-End Revenue Insights (07:37) Signature Product Lab Launch (13:35) Life-Changing Chair Experience (16:23) Christmas Joy and New Nanny (19:32) Video Podcasts Drive Higher Engagement (20:53) Podcast Reflections and Hosting Challenges (26:13) Social Detox and Podcast Focus (29:04) Refining Strategy and Delegation (30:51) Prioritizing Quality Over Schedule (34:02) Exciting Updates and Reflections *** ASK CREATOR SCIENCE → Submit your question here *** WHEN YOU'RE READY

The Potter Discussion: Harry Potter, Fantastic Beasts and the Wizarding World Fandom
Send us a textIn this episode, we discuss the finale to season one in our version of the Harry Potter TV show. Enjoy!Topics/Summary:· Listen to Tea Leaves S1 E7 here!· 1:40 Quick recap and Harry waking up in the hospital wing. Dumbledore comes to see him and explains what went down. I like that they discussed Harry's family and why Quirrell was turned to dust when he touches Harry. However, it would be super beneficial for the story to discuss Voldemort's journey and Flamel's choices more.· 14:14 Harry heads down to the feast. All exams have been cancelled, and Dumbledore gives his speech. It should be lighthearted, but I want to get some hints of the darkness to come. Neville gets his ten point that gives Gryffindor the house cup, beginning a wonderful arc.· 20:05 Packing up. This is the quiet peace of the episode because it's been so crazy for so long. Hogwarts is a huge place, but it is also incredibly personal. I want a few minutes to walk the grounds one last time and live in this world.· 24:45 Leaving Hogwarts. We aren't going to end the season at Hogsmeade station, but Hagrid's goodbye should still mean something. The trio bords the train and watches as Hogwarts fades away. When they get off in London, they say their goodbyes to each other and the cameras pan out to see everyone having their same conversations, and we fade out.Having anything you want to hear or say?

End-of-year energy has everyone saying they're “protecting their peace,” but this episode asks the sharper question: what piece are people actually protecting? Peace of mind, a piece of clout, a baddie era, or something more?This episode breaks down the contradiction of claiming peace while starting beef, soft-launching new personalities, and redefining confidence online — including the internet debate over whether men can be baddies.The conversation zooms out to global politics with a clear, accessible breakdown of the Venezuela crisis: how the country got here, what's happening now, and why it feels like political Groundhog Day, with a brief Iraq-era parallel.We also unpack internet culture's cycle of selective outrage, where new villains and victims are crowned weekly depending on gender, looks, popularity, and bias.The episode closes with the Anthony Joshua situation and what it reveals about modern journalism, media framing, and why protecting your piece of the truth matters.Protect your peace if you must —but don't forget to protect your piece.Total Runtime: 1:26:000:00 — Music intro1:05 — Welcome to The Sidebar Podcast2:30 — Holiday check-in + end-of-year energy6:10 — “Protecting your peace”… while starting beef11:45 — Soft-launching new personalities16:20 — Can men be “baddies”?

In this episode I'm joined by Phil Costa to look back on Tuesday evening's 4-1 win over Aston Villa. After a frustrating first half in many ways, Arsenal turned the screw to take all three points with goals from Gabriel, Martin Zubimendi, Leandro Trossard and Gabriel Jesus. We examine the key moments from both halves, and analyse the goals we scored, particularly the one with the goalkeeping error. There's also discussion of Gabriel's importance, Leandro Trossard's output, Martin Odegaard, Jesus getting back on the scoresheet after a year, handshake drama, the fun to be had with a game of this kind, a statement win from Mikel Arteta's team which ensured we go into 2026 on top of the Premier League, and lots more.Get extra bonus content and help support Arseblog by becoming an Arseblog Member on Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/arseblog Hosted on Acast.

For the podcast's annual end-of-year episode, Scott sat down with co-host emeritus Benjamin Wittes, Senior Editor Anna Bower, and Managing Editor Tyler McBrien to talk over listener-submitted topics and object lessons, including:Which sphere of influence is Western Europe in today?What should we make of President Trump's lawsuit against BBC?After nearly a year of the Trump Administration, how do you view the record of Attorney General Merrick Garland?What does the military campaign against alleged narcotics traffickers tell us about checks and balances within the U.S. system around the use of military force (or lack thereof)?With the escalating rhetoric in the Caribbean, what lessons should we be keeping in mind from the lead-up to the Iraq War?What can be done to reverse Americans' tolerance for the slide towards illiberal democracy?And importantly, is Ben's martial arts challenge to Putin still on?For object lessons, our listeners really came through!

"Don't confuse sacrifice and discipline with suffering." Ryan Clark Where did the time go? 2025 is wrapping up as we get ready to embrace the new endeavors, challenges and our biggest pivots that lie ahead in 2026! Ryan, Channing and Fred close out the year reflecting on the past 12 months of sports' biggest stories, headlines that dominated our feeds and personal milestones we embraced. We take account of our own self growth, missteps and ways we want to be better going forward knowing that perfection is an illusion, discipline and sacrifice are required for success and we take deep dive into the chaotic sports world. FBI takes on sports gambling, Luka trade to Dallas, Micah Parsons to Green Bay, Kansas City misses post season, Travis Kelce, Shedeur Sanders frenzy and the fall of Sean Diddy Combs...2025 had it's share of the unexpected and we discuss the impact of it all while the guys keep it real on the current state of the NFL. Channing says how the AFC North isn't what it used to be, Ryan says DK Metcalf incident could cost the Steelers their season and Fred weighs in on the possible end of the Chiefs dynasty. Pivoting to family, we talk about the vulnerable sides of parenting, from walking the line between wanting the best for our kids to pushing them too hard and how in the end happiness is the only true measure of how it turns out. Avoiding to set goals isn't always a bad thing while giving ourselves grace to make mistakes is how we've learned best. We also have a little fun talking about some viral fun scenarios and how we would respond to a wife's last wishes of a "casket pass". Pivot Family thank you for all the support, all the comments, the likes and follows- being on this journey with us means the world and we look forward to bringing more impactful conversations, stories and authentic content in 2026- Happy New Year, may it be filled with good health, family, memories and happiness.

As we close out 2025 and step into a brand-new year, this episode isn't about pretty planners or lofty resolutions — it's about the behind-the-scenes work that actually sets your business up for success. In this solo episode, Ashley Alderson walks you through the five critical areas every retailer must review before the year ends so you're compliant, organized, profitable, and positioned to lead — not just hustle — in 2026. From money and inventory to operations, goal-setting, and leadership, this is your practical, no-fluff checklist for finishing the year strong and starting the next one with clarity, confidence, and peace.
