Passione Triathlon n° 352Matteo Benedettiprotagonista della nuova puntata di Passione Triathlon.In questa puntata di Passione Triathlon, il Daddo intervista Matteo Benedetti, figura chiave del multisport italiano e pioniere dello Swimrun. Matteo racconta l'emozione di portare il regolamento dello Swimrun davanti alla World Triathlon a Losanna, ripercorrendo la nascita "romantica" dell'Aquatic Runner tra Grado e Lignano. L'intervista si trasforma poi in un viaggio mozzafiato tra le gare più dure del pianeta: dal freddo estremo del Norseman alle vette dell'Himalaya, passando per le notti stellate del Janosik e il deserto algerino. Una testimonianza unica su cosa significhi sfidare la natura e se stessi.CAPITOLI00:00 - Introduzione: Matteo Benedetti a Losanna per la World Triathlon01:30 - Swimrun: la nascita di un "figlio" e il nuovo regolamento mondiale03:30 - La storia romantica dell'Aquatic Runner: Grado-Lignano (2012)05:10 - Scoprire che lo Swimrun esisteva già: il confronto con l'Ötillö07:40 - Regole base: nuotare con le scarpe, palette e pullboy08:50 - La sicurezza nello Swimrun: gestire i recuperi in zone impervie11:55 - Passione Extreme: perché gli Iron Man "normali" non bastano più14:50 - Algeria: nuotare a 9 gradi nell'oasi e correre nel deserto17:40 - Himalaya Xtri in Nepal: correre a 4000 metri con la maschera ipossica20:00 - Il viaggio odissea verso l'Annapurna e l'incontro con le scimmie Loris24:10 - Superare l'ultimo cancello per 4 minuti: pura sofferenza in Nepal28:20 - Sanguisughe e massaggi thailandesi: aneddoti post-gara30:50 - Janosik (Slovacchia): nuotare a mezzanotte sotto la Via Lattea33:45 - Le ferrate a piedi di notte: la bellezza del pericolo36:15 - Norseman: l'atmosfera sul traghetto e il tuffo nel fiordo41:30 - La gestione del team e il freddo della Zombie Hill49:15 - Sogni nel cassetto: l'iscrizione a ICON e i 5000 metri di dislivello56:40 - Il futuro dell'Aquatic Runner: la nuova formula Lignano-Lignano1:01:20 - Matteo come dirigente Fitri: i Campionati Europei 2027 a LignanoSegui l'intervista condotta da Dario Daddo Nardone,PASSIONE TRIATHLON, in prima visione la nuova puntata sul canale youtube @DaddoSport ogni mercoledì alle 19.00!#daddocè #mondotriathlon #ioTRIamo ❤️________Video puntate Passione Triathlon: https://www.mondotriathlon.it/passioneSegui il Podcast di Passione Triathlon anche suSpotify: https://open.spotify.com/show/7FgsIqHtPVSMWmvDk3ygM1Spreaker: https://www.spreaker.com/show/triathlonAmazon Music: https://music.amazon.com/podcasts/f7e2e6f0-3473-4b18-b2d9-f6499078b9e0/mondo-triathlon-daddo-podcastApple Podcast: https://podcasts.apple.com/it/podcast/mondo-triathlon-daddo-podcast/id1226932686Trinews: Mondotriathlon.itFacebook: @mondotriathlonInstagram: @mondotriathlon________#triathlon #trilife #fczstyle#mondotriathlon #passionetriathlon#galadeltriathlon #triathlonshow #trivoluzione#daddosport #govegan #stopgenocideDiventa un supporter di questo podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/mondo-triathlon-daddo-podcast--2275909/support.

Viele Entwicklungsprozesse starten mit Motivation, Budget und bestem Willen – und enden dennoch in alten Mustern.Woran liegt das? In dieser Folge zeige ich, warum guter Wille allein nicht ausreicht und weshalb wir in Auswahl und Entwicklung häufig in zwei Extreme verfallen: defensive Risikovermeidung auf der einen Seite und naives „Alles ist möglich“-Denken auf der anderen. Beide Perspektiven greifen zu kurz, weil sie die eigentliche Struktur eines Menschen übersehen – seine Bewertungslogik.Ich spreche darüber, warum Verhalten trainierbar ist, Werte jedoch Energie organisieren und nicht beliebig umprogrammierbar sind. Anhand konkreter Beispiele wird deutlich, wie Wertespannungen entstehen und warum Motivation strukturelle Konflikte nicht lösen kann. Entwicklung braucht Präzision statt Aktionismus – genau wie Medizin Diagnose vor Therapie stellt. Wer Menschen wirklich entwickeln will, muss verstehen, wie sie ihre Welt ordnen und was in ihnen tragfähig angelegt ist.Am Ende bleibt eine zentrale Erkenntnis: Nicht alles ist machbar – aber vieles ist möglich, wenn wir wissen, wo wir ansetzen.Profilingvalues Mediathek: https://podcast.profilingvalues.comLinkedin Profil Dr. Ulrich Vogel: https://de.linkedin.com/in/ulrich-vogel-profilingvaluesprofilingvalues Website: https://www.profilingvalues.comAutorenseite Dr. Uli Vogel: https://uli-vogel.com/Linkedin Profil profilingvalues: https://de.linkedin.com/company/profiling-values?trk=public_profile_topcard-current-companyprofilingvalues Blog: https://profilingvalues.com/ueber-uns/pv-blog/

Episode Overview In this episode, John sits down with Tina Caul for an honest and transformational conversation about leadership growth, emotional intelligence, and building an organization that scales beyond the founder. Tina shares how she hit a leadership ceiling after building one of the top-performing teams at eXp—closing 700–800 deals annually—only to realize the real bottleneck wasn't systems or talent… it was her own leadership lid. This episode dives deep into what it really takes to evolve from leading buyers and sellers to leading leaders. From unpacking personal triggers to implementing structured leadership frameworks like the Pathway of Personal Responsibility, the EQ Matrix, and the Kairos Circle, Tina opens up about the uncomfortable—but necessary—work required to scale to the next level. If you've ever felt stuck at a growth plateau, frustrated with people problems, or unsure how to elevate your organization beyond your own capacity, this conversation will challenge and equip you to level up. Key Topics Covered The Leadership Lid Why every business problem is ultimately a leadership problem Recognizing when you've hit your leadership ceiling Why what got you here won't get you there From Top Producer to True Leader The shift from selling homes to leading people The dangers of "high support, low challenge" environments Why vulnerability builds trust inside organizations Emotional Intelligence & Self-Awareness The EQ Matrix: self-awareness and others-awareness Why leaders must master emotional regulation How unresolved childhood patterns impact leadership decisions The Pathway of Personal Responsibility Understanding triggers and avoiding emotional "pinball" reactions Learning to pause, breathe, and respond instead of react Extreme ownership in leadership The Kairos Circle Framework Turning conflict into growth conversations Creating safe, structured ways to unpack misunderstandings How to prevent resentment from compounding over time Scaling Beyond Yourself Why leaders must build leaders who build leaders The importance of unified language and shared frameworks Moving from checkers to chess as your organization grows Resources & Mentions Leadership Gravitas by Eric Pfeiffer Empower Coaching Podcast Extreme Ownership by Jocko Willink Headspace App (mindfulness practice) Concepts discussed: Emotional Intelligence (EQ), Developmental Square, Pathway of Personal Responsibility, Kairos Circle Final Takeaway If your organization has plateaued, it's not a market problem. It's not a talent problem. It's a leadership growth opportunity. The size of your business will always reflect the size of your leadership capacity. And scaling requires more than tactics—it demands self-awareness, emotional maturity, and the courage to confront what's holding you back. Leadership isn't about control. It's about clarity, responsibility, and building leaders who multiply impact beyond you. "Every business problem is a leadership problem."

The cross-border payments market remains stubbornly difficult despite billions in venture capital and countless smart founders attacking the problem. The core challenge isn't technology—it's economics. Western Union's margins weren't exploitative greed; they reflected the brutal reality of cash distribution networks, compliance infrastructure, and dual-country regulatory overhead. Palla Financial cracked this by inverting the entire model: instead of fighting for expensive US-based senders, they partnered with Latin American banks to let recipients pull funds. This approach taps into the world's largest remittance corridor ($160+ billion annually flowing from the US to Latin America) while sidestepping the customer acquisition bloodbath. In this episode, Enrique Perezalonso, CEO of Palla Financial, breaks down why recipient-driven payments eliminate distribution costs, how they rebuilt their product three times based on bank feedback, and why the "no CAC" embedded model still requires massive partner investment to actually work. Topics Discussed: Why cross-border payments remain broken: dual-country regulations, cash distribution economics, and two-sided transaction complexity The shift from cash-based infrastructure to digital rails and its impact on unit economics Palla's pull-based model: embedding payment requests inside bank apps to flip sender/recipient dynamics Revenue mechanics: $3 consumer fees, FX markup economics, and interchange/revenue sharing with bank partners The buy-vs-build calculus for banks and why a Central American banking group returned after a four-year internal build attempt Creating a new category and watching competitors attempt to copy the embedded approach Selling into banks with no standardized buyer: navigating from remittance teams to CEOs depending on organizational maturity The reality of "indirect" CAC: why embedded distribution still requires heavy investment in partner success Implementation failures and the shift from hands-off best practices to consultative partner enablement GTM Lessons For B2B Founders: Flip expensive distribution by attacking the other side of the transaction: While competitors burned cash acquiring US-based senders in saturated corridors (US-Mexico, US-India), Palla partnered with recipient-side banks in Latin America. Banks gained deposits, interchange revenue, and digital channel differentiation without building infrastructure. The lesson isn't just "find cheaper distribution"—it's recognizing that two-sided markets have two potential wedges, and the less obvious side may offer superior economics and strategic positioning. Target buyers who already tried and failed to build: A Central American banking group spent nine months evaluating Palla, decided to build internally, then returned four years later. This wasn't poor execution—it was competing priorities, lack of scale economics, and the reality that cross-border payments isn't their core business. The strongest signal for partnership readiness isn't interest, it's previous build attempts that stalled. These buyers understand the problem deeply and won't need convincing on value. "Embedded" and "no CAC" are myths without massive partner investment: Palla initially provided best practice guides and light coaching, assuming banks would naturally drive adoption. They saw "lackluster results" until they became "more and more hands-on," shifting to consultative implementation with proper incentive design and accountability frameworks. The volume business requires scale, and scale requires active partner management. Budget for partner success resources as if you're hiring an implementation consulting team, not just doing integrations. Use speed to rebuild the product in real-time with customers: The product Palla launched bears little resemblance to their original vision. They rebuilt features "hand in hand" with bank partners, leveraging their advantage over large competitors: no bureaucracy, hunger to make it work, and speed. This isn't about "customer feedback"—it's about treating early partners as co-developers and having the discipline to throw away your original roadmap when partners show you what actually solves their problem. Extreme focus means saying no to everything adjacent: Palla deliberately limits themselves to "two or three products" all within cross-border payments, explicitly avoiding cross-sell opportunities and adjacent revenue streams. Enrique notes this is both their moat and "a potential pitfall" when opportunities multiply with success. The discipline isn't about focus when you're struggling—it's about maintaining focus when growth creates endless plausible expansions. Each "yes" to something new is a "no" to deepening your core advantage. // Sponsors: Front Lines — We help B2B tech companies launch, manage, and grow podcasts that drive demand, awareness, and thought leadership. www.FrontLines.io The Global Talent Co. — We help tech startups find, vet, hire, pay, and retain amazing marketing talent that costs 50-70% less than the US & Europe. www.GlobalTalent.co // Don't Miss: New Podcast Series — How I Hire Senior GTM leaders share the tactical hiring frameworks they use to build winning revenue teams.

In this episode, I sit down with his client Seth, a busy dad of two, to share the full story behind his transformation over the past six months. After gaining around 40 pounds during COVID lockdowns, Seth found himself stuck in routines that weren't serving him. A candid vacation photo became the wake-up call that forced him to confront how far he'd drifted from the person he wanted to be. From there, he committed to making sustainable changes, focused on accountability, consistency, and doing the basics well. In this conversation, Seth breaks down: 1. How he lost nearly 40 pounds and over six inches off his waist 2. Why tracking (without obsessing) helped him avoid quitting when progress slowed 3. The mindset shift from “burn as many calories as possible” to intentional strength training 4. How focusing on high-protein, lower-calorie-density foods made dieting more satisfying—not more restrictive 5. How he navigates restaurants, holidays, and real life without being perfect 6. Why 80–85% consistency is more than enough to see major results 7. The power of progressive overload and competing with yourself in the gym 8. The biggest non-scale victory of all: improved confidence, energy, and mental clarity Seth also shares how he and his wife make early-morning workouts work with two young kids, why he no longer chases calorie burn numbers on his watch, and how these habits now feel like part of his identity. This episode is a real, relatable look at what sustainable fat loss actually looks like for a working parent—and proof that you don't need extreme workouts or restrictive dieting to change your life. ---------- Interested in getting results like Seth?

Markets bounced Friday, recovering to close slightly above the 20-day moving average, but the story remains internal rotation—not a clean, broad-based trend. Energy and mega-caps carried the tape into the close, while this morning the leadership is shifting again, with Healthcare acting better (Eli Lilly notably higher) and much of the rest of the market looking flat. February is doing what it often does—acting like one of the weaker seasonal months—and the S&P 500 is up only about 1.2% year-to-date. Under the surface, sector bifurcation is pronounced: Energy, Industrials, and Basic Materials have posted outsized gains, while Technology, Financials, and Healthcare have lagged. That divergence is a reminder that "index level" calm can mask very real crosscurrents in risk. Breadth is also sending a message. The equal-weighted index continues to outperform, and roughly 65% of S&P 500 constituents are outperforming the index so far this year—an extreme not seen in decades. Strong participation isn't inherently bearish, but when performance becomes that broadly stretched, the probability of mean reversion and sharp reversals tends to rise. Bottom line: respect the rotation, don't chase what's extended, and stay disciplined on risk controls.

Apple Pie Playground with Valerie Title: Emotions in Motion, The Key to Human Evolution? Is it possible that managing emotion is the key that opens the door to human evolution mind, body, and spirit? Are we managing emotion or is it managing us? Does it really matter? Let's talk. Emotions in Motion: The Gateway to Human Evolution and Spiritual Transcendence Emotions in Motion The Key to Human Evolution & Quantum Spirituality 62 Min Listen #QuantumSpirituality #LimbicSystem #EmotionalIntelligence #SelfCare Core Philosophy "Emotion is energy in motion (emotere). It occurs before thought, informing the body through sensory cues before the brain even interprets the environment." Survival Reptilian Brain Fight, flight, or freeze. Triggered by unmanaged emotional charges in the amygdala. Evolution Prefrontal Cortex Transcendence and regulation. Activated through meditation and mindful awareness. The Cellular Impact Unreleased emotions deposit energy into cells, forming karma and "subtle bodies." Managing this energy is the only way to unlock psychic abilities (the "clairs") and higher consciousness. High EI Checklist ✔Self-Awareness & Regulation ✔Empathy & Social Skills ✔Setting Healthy Boundaries ✔Openness to Feedback ✔Conflict Resolution The 5-Circle Activity 1. Center: Waking emotion. 2. Social: First conversation. 3. Digital: Phone/TV interaction. 4. Present: Emotion right now. 5. Intent: Chosen end-of-day emotion. Source: Apple Pie Playground - Valerie Target: Spiritual Seekers & Self-Care Practitioners In this session of Apple Pie Playground, host Valerie explores the profound duality of human emotions, characterizing them as both a sensory "energy in motion" and a potential barrier to spiritual evolution. The discussion bridges the gap between quantum spirituality and neurobiology, offering a roadmap for managing emotional states to unlock higher consciousness and collective transformation. The Dual Nature of Emotions: Physicality vs. Spirituality Emotions are often described as the "astral field" of our physical experience or energy bodies that persist beyond the spirit's departure. While many spiritual traditions equate the highest state of being with an emotion like love, Valerie suggests that emotions are actually a characteristic of the physical realm of duality and do not necessarily translate to our "source identity". Because emotions like love can encompass a vast spectrum—from divine light to the "dark side" of obsession and possessiveness—relying on them as a sole definition of the divine can be problematic. The Biological Mechanism of Feeling Scientifically, emotions are electrochemical processes triggered by sensory experiences, occurring as electrical impulses in the body rather than mere brain waves. Crucially, emotion occurs before thought; the body picks up cues and shifts energy before the rational brain can define the event. If these energies are not released, they deposit into the cells, creating what some traditions call the "subtle body" or sushruma sarira, which can influence karma and physical health. The Emotional Brain: Survival vs. Transcendence Reptilian Brain (Amygdala) Triggers Fight, Flight, or Freeze. Operates on survival mode and subconscious triggers, often bypassing rational thought. Limbic & Prefrontal System The Pineal & Pituitary glands enable higher awareness. Regulation occurs in the Prefrontal Cortex through reason. Extreme emotions (even joy) can "hypoactivate" the brain, blocking psychic and transcendent functions 16]. The Path to Emotional Competency Unmanaged emotions lead to a "feedback loop" of stress, hormonal imbalances, and even addictions as the brain craves certain chemical stimulations. To evolve, humans must move emotion from the subconscious limbic system to the prefrontal cortex for regulation. This is achieved through intentional practices such as meditation, deep breathing, and prayer, which scientifically recalibrate the brain and activate the "transcendent" functions of the parietal lobe. Evolutionary Potential and Shared Reality Valerie posits that "emotional competency" is the fastest route to human evolution. By stabilizing our emotional bodies, we may unlock latent abilities such as clairvoyance and psychic connection. Furthermore, because emotions are vibrations that affect the quantum field, a collective shift in emotional frequency—preferring joy and compassion over hate and greed—has the power to literally reshape our shared physical reality. Indicators of High Emotional Intelligence (EQ) ✅ Self-Regulation: Pausing before reacting to avoid impulsive decisions. ✅ Empathy: Reading body language and understanding diverse perspectives. ✅ Openness: Viewing constructive criticism as a tool for growth. ✅ Boundaries: The ability to say "no" to maintain healthy limits. ✅ Conflict Resolution: Focusing on diplomacy rather than "winning." Source: Apple Pie Playground Practical Strategies for Daily Management To prevent emotions from settling at a cellular level, individuals should practice "moving" them through the body. Techniques include reframing negative thoughts into neutral or positive ones, practicing gratitude to shake off negativity, and using grounding exercises (focusing on the five senses) to remain present during a "trigger" event. Creating space between a stimulus and a response is vital for bypassing the subconscious "fight-or-flight" mechanism. Key Data & Observations The 5-Minute Rule: Just five minutes of quiet recalibration can significantly reactivate the brain's regulatory centers. Heart Coherence: Elevated emotions like gratitude influence the heart's electromagnetic field, aligning it with higher consciousness. Subconscious Triggers: A "trigger" is a subconscious reaction that completely bypasses the rational thinking brain. To-Do / Next Steps Label your feelings throughout the day to increase conscious awareness of emotional shifts. Practice "The Pause" by breathing and waiting before responding to a triggering event. Perform a daily grounding exercise by identifying what you can see, touch, and hear in the present moment. Conduct the "Five Circles" reflection: Draw five concentric circles representing your emotions from waking up to bedtime to track your emotional evolution. Choose your final emotion of the night intentionally, as it often dictates the emotion you wake up with the next day. Conclusion Emotions are the "Achilles' heel" of humanity, often targeted by social controls and media to keep us in survival mode. However, by treating emotions as informative tools rather than our absolute identity, we can manage their energetic force. This mastery not only heals the individual but serves as the catalyst for a more beautiful, co-created global reality.

Today's character, the first in a series of portraits during Lent, is Satan. Scripture references for today take us back to the very beginning to remind us that Satan is at first a deceiver, one who calls into question God's ordering of things. Sometimes he is also referred to as the “Author of Upside-Down Things.” Why? Join us and find out. Along the way we also noticed that portraits of Satan are not necessarily painted with dark colors and angry brushstrokes. The painting associated with this sermon/podcast is a detail from "The Fallen Angel" by Alexandre Cabanel (1847).

In this episode, Travis Chappell is joined in studio by his producer Eric for a live-recorded conversation that dives into a surprisingly nuanced topic: who should you trust when everyone seems to have something to sell? From Big Pharma to wellness influencers, Travis unpacks the tension between traditional medicine and holistic health—and why the real answer probably isn't on either extreme. Drawing from personal experience, including his own cancer diagnosis, Travis shares why critical thinking—not blind trust—is one of the most valuable skills you can develop in today's information economy. On this episode we talk about: The business model behind pharmaceutical advertising Wellness influencers vs. traditional medicine Why outsourcing your thinking is dangerous Navigating conflicting expert opinions Finding a balanced, holistic approach to health decisions Top 3 Takeaways Everyone Has an Incentive.Whether it's pharmaceutical companies, supplement brands, or media outlets, follow the money. Understanding incentives helps you evaluate advice more clearly. Outsourcing Your Thinking Comes at a Cost.Blind trust—on either side of a polarized debate—removes personal responsibility. Critical thinking is harder, but it's necessary. The Truth Is Often in the Middle.Western medicine has saved countless lives. Holistic practices can also play a powerful role. Extreme camps rarely offer the full picture. Notable Quotes “The bad news about all of this is that you're going to have to think more.” “When you outsource your thinking to thought leaders with agendas, that's when it gets dangerous.” “It's probably somewhere in the middle.” Connect with Travis Chappell: LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/travischappell/ Twitter/X: https://twitter.com/travischappell Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/travischappell/ Other: https://travischappell.com  Travis Makes Money is made possible by High Level – the All-In-One Sales & Marketing Platform built for agencies, by an agency.  Capture leads, nurture them, and close more deals—all from one powerful platform.  Get an extended free trial at gohighlevel.com/travis Learn more about your ad choices.

In this episode, Adam Torres ⁠interviews Todd Vande Hei, Founder of Stark Health, a Southern California-based healthcare company focused on proactive, root-cause health optimization. Todd shares why belief drives behavior change, how small sustainable habits outperform extreme resolutions, and why sleep, protein, and muscle mass are foundational to long-term health and longevity. About ⁠Todd Vande Hei Todd once believed he was destined for a life of sickness. In his early 30s, seizures, high blood pressure, and atrial fibrillation were his constant companions. At a time when he should have been enjoying the freedom and vitality of youth, he had instead resigned himself to the limitations brought on by illness. In a word, he was stuck… and he remained that way until he reached a life-changing realization: Health isn't something you're simply born with — it's a skill you can master. For the past 15 years, Todd Vande Hei has been on a relentless journey to uncover the practices behind peak health. Through countless experiments, setbacks, and breakthroughs, he discovered that true health isn't about fad diets, miracle products, or trending tips. It's about mastering the foundations: lifestyle, exercise, nutrition, and stress management. As the founder of Stark Health, Todd made it his mission to share what he learned with those who need it most. Together with his team of more than 80 medical experts — including doctors, nutritionists, and fitness coaches — he helps high-achieving professionals transform their health and perform at their peak in both life and business. Backed by over a decade of clinical experience and millions of data points, Stark's methods have produced transformations that defy conventional wisdom. At 56 years old, Todd is healthier, happier, and more vibrant than he was at 25 — living proof that peak health can be built at any stage of life. Whether someone is battling chronic illness, pursuing sustainable weight loss, or striving to thrive at every age, Todd's message is clear: Peak health isn't just possible — it's within reach.

I'd like to begin by thanking Andrea Marcus, a dear friend and long-time supporter of State of Tel Aviv and Beyond, for sponsoring this episode. Andrea is a Toronto resident, proud Jewish woman and spectacularly talented artist. She is deeply troubled by what has been happening in Toronto and Canada since October 7, 2023.This episode was to have been published on Sunday December 14, 2025. And then the Bondi Beach Chanukah massacre happened. Hours later, a Chanukah candle lighting began in Toronto, Canada. What ensued was appalling. As Toronto police watched.....Part I of this mini-series dropped in early December and focused on the violent attack on an IDF reserve soldier on November 5 in downtown Toronto. Jonathan Karten. Nothing about that attack was surprising. Since October 7, Toronto has become one of the most hostile cities in the western world for Jewish life. All things Jewish are targeted regularly. And the response of the police? Well, that's what we take a hard look at in today's podcast. Why is Toronto such a cesspit of antisemitic violence? Incitement. Hatred. Why is it tolerated? I have lived and studied this disturbing situation since October 7, carefully, and the reality of Toronto - Canada - and beyond - must be seen. And seen clearly. I have sifted through many hours of video, photographs and media coverage in order to document the broad and specific observations made. Toronto Chief of Police Myron Demkiw declined an opportunity to be interviewed to discuss these rather pressing issues.And the political leadership in Canada? With very few exceptions, they are complicit. Municipally. Provincially. Federally.This episode has shifted shape since December 14. We do address aspects of the Karten assault on November 5, in particular the arrest of six individuals connected with that incident. But we spend more time zooming out to look at the bigger picture, to try to understand why Toronto has become such fertile ground for Jew hatred. Many of the incidents we discuss took place after the assault on Jonathan Karten on November 5. And after Bondi. In the podcast notes we include links to Episode I of this series, as well as two-part series on antisemitism in Toronto that I put out a year ago. Extreme antisemitism in Toronto? It's neither new nor going to miraculously resolve. In th podcast notes, we set out other podcasts we have produced that are directly relevant to the issues raised in this episode, including Part 1 of this 2-part series.Certain archive material may be available to premium subcribers only.

AP's Lisa Dwyer reports that more Americans report being adversely affected by extreme cold.

Todd Sampson began his TV career on Gruen, the long-running ABC series about advertising, before transforming himself into a human guinea pig to scrutinise the limits of the human brain and body.His upcoming show, called Why?, explores the reasons behind why people turn to extreme beliefs and behaviours such as doomsday prepping, base-jumping or alien worship. In this chat, hosted by The Sydney Morning Herald science reporter Angus Dalton, Sampson talks about his upbringing, how he went from 'ad man' to TV, and the moment marrying a doomsday prepper really came in handy.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Episode 2908: Sara Stanizai explores how extreme family dependency and codependent friendships often masquerade as closeness while masking deep dysfunction. She outlines clear signs to look for, like blurred boundaries, emotional fatigue, and unhealthy control, and offers tools like journaling, boundary-setting, and therapy to help you reclaim your autonomy and build healthier, more sustainable relationships. Read along with the original article(s) here: https://www.prospecttherapy.com/blog/2023/1/27/how-to-deal-with-extreme-family-dependency & https://www.prospecttherapy.com/blog/2023/1/20/part-1-spotting-codependency-in-friendships Quotes to ponder: "You can't choose your family. It's fair even to say that you can't choose what qualities and characteristics you inherit from your family." "Dependency can take on a form of loving and passive behavior, but also anger and manipulation." "Neither the victim nor the fixer are sustainable roles in a friendship."

Subscribe to the OPEX Effect on SpotifySubscribe to the OPEX Effect on Apple PodcastsIn this episode of The Opex Effect, Jack and Brent break down the growing impact of options markets on stocks, volatility, and sector rotation. While the major indexes appear calm, massive moves beneath the surface tell a very different story. From software stocks and AI disruption to gold, silver, bonds, and the Nasdaq, they analyze how dealer hedging flows, gamma positioning, implied volatility, and options expiration cycles may be shaping market behavior more than headlines suggest. If you want to understand why markets can feel wildly volatile yet go nowhere, and how options positioning can influence short term price action, this episode provides a deep dive into the mechanics driving today's market environment.Main Topics CoveredWhy the market feels like the wildest calm market of all timeMassive single stock volatility versus muted index performanceSoftware stock weakness, AI disruption, and the so called SaaS apocalypseThe surge in options volume and the rise of zero DTE in major stocksHow dealer hedging, delta, gamma, and volatility flows impact equitiesThe historical tendency for markets to flip direction after options expirationRealized volatility versus intraday volatility and what is being hiddenBeneath the surface rotation into value, small caps, energy, and defenseGold and silver volatility spikes and what options volume signaled at the topRising demand for puts and what skew is telling us about downside riskCorrelation spikes, VIX behavior, and the risk of a volatility expansionHow positioning can create rapid market spasms in single stocks like Nvidia and TeslaWhy this environment may represent a staging area for a larger moveTimestamps00:00 Violently going nowhere and hidden volatility01:01 The wildest calm market of all time04:00 Introduction to The Opex Effect and options driven flows05:29 The growth of options trading and zero DTE impact11:00 Dealer hedging, delta, and how options move stocks13:42 Why options expiration can trigger regime changes16:22 Intraday volatility versus close to close volatility20:18 Extreme rotation beneath the surface21:00 Measuring expiration size with the lobster claw rating25:00 Single stock positioning and March expiration risk27:35 Core one month correlation warning signals33:00 Rising put demand and what skew reveals36:45 Asset rotation in bonds, gold, bitcoin, and tech43:06 Correlation spikes and crash risk setup46:40 The quickening of volatility and single stock spasms

On today's podcast I chat once again with Paul Kearns, urban planner, author and journalist who has been living in Tel Aviv with his young family for the last 8 years. Paul has been bringing us the truth from within Israel throughout the Gaza war, including the story of censorship by the media there and the presentation of the genocide in a very sanitised way to the people of Israel. In bravely doing so, Paul has in many cases alienated himself from friends and family but his honesty has been much appreciated and his writing has been very welcome by Irish media. He is now increasingly concerned by some political rhetoric and what he is hearing from the Jewish community in Ireland. He believes that the horrors we have witnessed in Gaza has resulted in visceral antisemitism, which could be a real threat to this community and his own family should he ever decide to visit or even return to Ireland to live. When he wrote about this topic, the media outlets who were happy to take his earlier articles did not want to know. We spoke about this version of censorship, antisemitism, holocaust deniers, conspiracy theories and how a country can start to rebuild its reputation, which is in tatters.

In this episode of the podcast, host Dave and guests discuss Bitcoin's current price around $68,000, amid extreme market fear with the Crypto Fear & Greed Index hitting a historic low of 5, signaling potential selling exhaustion and a classic contrarian buy opportunity. Panelists debate sentiment extremes, institutional accumulation, quantum computing risks, macro mispricing, and comparisons to gold, while expressing cautious optimism for long-term holders despite short-term downside risks (possibly to $50-60K). The conversation expands to broader concerns like institutional trust erosion, recent political events (e.g., Epstein file discussions), economic instability, AI agents' future impact on crypto rails, and altcoin challenges in a maturing market. A candid, wide-ranging talk blending technical analysis, macro views, and philosophical takes on trust and value in uncertain times.

Skellig Michael rises straight out of the Atlantic, jagged and dramatic, and according to archaeologist Neil Jackman, it's every bit as challenging as it looks. Visiting this remote Kerry island can be an extraordinary experience – but only if travelers understand what's involved before they try. Visiting Skellig Michael: What Travelers Need to Know Clochans on Skellig MichaelImage provided by Tuatha; used with permission This article is based on podcast episode 325 featuring archaeologist Neil Jackman, director of Abarta Heritage and Tuatha. Neil is a returning guest – listen to his episode about Ireland's Ancient East.Use the player below to listen or scroll to continue reading the article and get resource links. Where the Skellig Islands Are and Why They're So Unforgettable The Skellig Islands sit about 12 kilometers (8 miles) off the coast of County Kerry, beyond the Skellig Ring. Skellig Michael is the larger of the two, shaped like a steep stone pyramid rising from the ocean. From viewpoints along the Ring of Kerry, it's striking – but being out on the water brings its scale and isolation into sharp focus. Neil describes it as a place that doesn't quite belong to the modern world, and that sense of otherworldliness is part of what makes the islands so compelling. The Monastery at the Edge of the Atlantic Skellig Michael's fame isn't just about scenery. The island is home to an early medieval monastery, likely founded in the 7th century by monks seeking complete isolation for spiritual devotion. With no deserts in Ireland, remote Atlantic islands became places of withdrawal and focus. The monastery complex includes: Dry-stone beehive huts (clocháns) Oratories and outdoor altars A burial area and stone crosses Ingenious rainwater collection systems All of it was built without mortar, relying entirely on carefully balanced stone. The site later endured Viking raids, was rededicated to St. Michael the Archangel, and eventually abandoned as a permanent settlement—though it never lost its importance as a place of pilgrimage. Little Skellig: The Island You Can't Visit Beside Skellig Michael is Little Skellig, dramatically steeper and even more inhospitable. Today it's a protected bird sanctuary, home to tens of thousands of gannets, and landing is not permitted. While archaeologists believe it would be surprising if Little Skellig was completely unused in the past, modern visitors experience it only from the water – where its scale and wildlife are still jaw-dropping. When Skellig Michael Can Be Visited Access to Skellig Michael is extremely limited. The landing season generally runs from late April or early May through September, and even then, weather plays the deciding role. Roughly one-third of scheduled trips are canceled each year. Calm conditions on shore don't guarantee a landing; the swell at the island's pier must be minimal, and conditions can change quickly. Neil stresses that flexibility is essential. Neil Jackman at the monastery of Skellig Michaelimage provide by Neil; used with permission Booking Tips From Someone Who's Been There Demand for Skellig Michael has increased dramatically, and visitor numbers are tightly controlled for safety and preservation. What travelers should know: Landing permits sell out quickly Staying near Portmagee or Valentia Island improves your chances of last-minute openings Planning multiple days in the area gives you flexibility if weather cancels your trip There's no foolproof strategy – just patience, preparation, and backup plans. What a Landing Trip Is Really Like A landing trip typically includes a 45–55 minute boat ride each way, often rough even on decent days. Once ashore, visitors have several hours on the island – but the physical challenge comes fast. The climb to the monastery involves 618 steep stone steps, with no handrails and narrow sections where people pass in both directions. Neil's practical advice: Skip walking sticks; you need free hands for balance Anyone uncomfortable with heights should think carefully before starting the climb You don't need to be an athlete, but a reasonable level of fitness matters Take breaks – there are natural resting points along the way There is now a single toilet facility near the landing area, but queues form quickly. Puffins, Gannets, and Wildlife Encounters From April through early July, Skellig Michael is home to thousands of puffins, nesting right beside the steps. They're remarkably unfazed by visitors and are a highlight for many travelers. Gannets dominate the skies year-round, and crossings sometimes include sightings of dolphins or whales. Later in the season, the puffins are gone, but the atmosphere of the island remains just as powerful. Eco Tours: A Worthwhile Alternative For those who can't land – or choose not to – eco tours circle Skellig Michael and Little Skellig without docking. These trips focus on: Wildlife viewing Sea cliffs and island scale Close views of both Skelligs from the water Eco tours are a strong option for families with younger children or travelers uneasy with heights. Just remember that you remain on the boat for the entire trip, which can be challenging for anyone prone to seasickness.

His work helps communities protect historic places while making them more meaningful and accessible to visitors. Neil is also behind Tuatha, a membership-based resource for travelers and Ireland enthusiasts. Tuatha offers heritage-focused itineraries, in-depth articles, expert-led online talks, and courses covering Irish archaeology, history, and genealogy. Many resources are designed to help travelers turn canceled plans – like a missed Skellig landing – into deeply rewarding days on the mainland. Tuatha on Facebook & Instagram Sign up for the free Monument Monday newsletter Three Places to Visit Along the Ring of Kerry (Beyond the Skelligs) When asked to narrow down must-see spots along the Ring of Kerry, Neil admits it's nearly impossible—but a few places consistently stand out. Valentia Island Tetrapod Trackway On Valentia Island, visitors can see 380-million-year-old fossilized footprints left by some of the earliest vertebrates to walk on land. There's no visitor center or flashy display – just a simple sign and one of the most important prehistoric sites in the world. Loher Stone Fort Loher is one of the best-preserved stone ring forts in Kerry. Massive stone walls, a dramatic setting, and a strong sense of place make it a standout stop for travelers interested in early settlement and defense. Ballinskelligs Priory and St. Michael's Holy Well Closely connected to Skellig Michael's story, Ballinskelligs Priory on the mainland was founded by monks who left the island. Nearby, St. Michael's Holy Well (Tobar Mhichíl) is a small, atmospheric site that ties the island monastery back into the surrounding landscape. Add in beaches, coastal walks, and a stop along the Skellig Ring, and it's easy to see why this part of Kerry rewards travelers who give it time.

In this eye-opening conversation, Aaron sits down with economic historian Chris Bream, author of Beyond Steel: Pittsburgh and the Economics of Transformation to unpack one of the most dramatic industrial collapses in American history — and what it reveals about the future of cities, regions, and the country.Pittsburgh went from being the steel capital of the world to losing hundreds of thousands of jobs and people in just a few brutal years in the early 1980s. Chris explains why the collapse was so sudden and so total, how generations of warnings were ignored, and how Pittsburgh eventually began to rebuild around talent, education, and knowledge industries.This is far more than local history — it's a powerful case study in economic denial, disruptive change, identity tied to work, and what successful regional adaptation actually looks like in the 21st century.CHAPTERS:(0:00 Introduction)(0:59 Why Pittsburgh became the steel capital of the world ) (3:24 Geography, coal, rivers, and Andrew Carnegie's real role ) (5:18 How steel came to dominate and displace every other industry)  (7:54 Steel wasn't just jobs — it became Pittsburgh's entire identity ) (10:03 The shocking speed of the 1980s collapse — what really happened ) (13:21 Paul Volcker, 21% interest rates, and the Rust Belt reckoning ) (15:21 Warnings ignored for decades: reports from the 1940s, 1960s, and earlier) (19:24 Why temporary booms kept postponing the inevitable day of reckoning ) (23:27 Denial, hubris, and the human cost of believing “it will never end” ) (27:14 How Pittsburgh actually recovered — the real story ) (29:47 The roots of the knowledge economy go back decades before the crash ) (31:20 Lessons for the rest of America: what declining regions can, and can't, do ) (33:52 Rethinking success in places that won't grow anymore ) CHRIS BRIEM LINKS:

The Other Side of the Story with Tom Harris and Todd Royal – What caused this extreme weather? Why did our power sources fail at the worst possible moment, and what does this tell us about the future as we transition from dispatchable power, such as coal, oil, and natural gas that grid operators can turn on, turn off, or ramp up and down whenever they need it, to nondispatchable sources...
