Additionally, he uncovers tools like backcasting, premortems, and kill criteria to improve long-term decision-making as investors. IN THIS EPISODE YOU'LL LEARN: 00:00 - Intro 01:36 - What it means to “think in bets” and how poker can sharpen decision-making. 05:57 - The concept of “resulting” and how it distorts our ability to evaluate decisions. 08:17 - Why good decisions can still lead to bad outcomes—and vice versa. 09:41 - The role of System 1 vs. System 2 thinking in making better choices. 10:44 - How investing parallels poker with incomplete information and uncertainty. 26:29 - How to build a feedback loop that separates luck from skill. 34:03 - The importance of building a truth-seeking group or “buddy system.” 35:02 - The dangers of confirmation bias and how beliefs are often formed by default. 52:54 - How backcasting and premortems can help map out future decisions. 57:16 - The power of setting kill criteria to avoid emotional decision-making.

Endlich ist es soweit: Teresa wagt sich mit Daniela an das größte Horrorspielfranchise: Resident Evil. In dieser Episode geht es jedoch nicht um die Anfänge der Reihe, sondern um das Remake zu Resident Evil 4 (2023). Das Original RE 4 (2005) ist ein Fanliebling der Reihe. Wie sich die beiden Versionen voneinander unterscheiden und ob das Remake dem Original würdig ist, könnt ihr in der neuen Episode hören.
Juli und David sind Schriftsteller, Ehepartner und Eltern zweier Kinder. Juli Zeh war schon zweimal im Hotel Matze zu Gast: Das erste Mal 2021, ein zweites Mal sprachen wir vor fast genau 2 Jahren, im Mai 2023. Davids Roman “Der Schwindel” erschien vor Kurzem und hat mich zum Nachdenken über den Wahrheitsbegriff gebracht. Deswegen habe ich mich gefreut, diesmal mit den beiden als Schriftstellerpaar zu sprechen. Ich wollte von ihnen wissen, wie ihre regelmäßigen Küchengespräche aussehen, wann sie sich uneinig sind, worin sie sich unterscheiden und wie man sich den Haushalt von zwei Schreibenden vorstellen muss. Wir sprechen über Gut und Böse, Richtig und Falsch, Gesellschaft und Justiz. Es geht um Wahrheit, Moral und um Mortadellawurstsätze.

In this episode, Clay explores When Genius Failed by Roger Lowenstein, the gripping story of the rise and fall of Long-Term Capital Management (LTCM). Founded by Wall Street's brightest minds, including Nobel Prize-winning economists, LTCM generated astronomical returns using complex mathematical models and extreme leverage—until a financial crisis in 1998 exposed its fatal flaws. Clay also discusses the dangers of overconfidence, the illusion of diversification, and why excessive leverage can be a ticking time bomb. Additionally, he shares details on an exclusive value investing event hosted by TIP in Big Sky, Montana, in September 2025. IN THIS EPISODE YOU'LL LEARN: 00:00 - Intro 03:34 - How John Meriwether and a team of Wall Street's brightest minds, including Nobel laureates, built a hedge fund that seemed invincible, using sophisticated financial models and extreme leverage. 25:55 - LTCM's reliance on mathematical models that assumed markets behaved rationally, leading them to underestimate the possibility of extreme events. 48:30 - How the Russian debt default triggered widening credit spreads, exposing LTCM's overleveraged positions and leading to catastrophic losses. 54:49 - Why LTCM's failure posed systemic risks to the global financial system, forcing the Fed to coordinate a rescue with major Wall Street banks. 01:08:17 - The dangers of excessive leverage, overconfidence in financial models, and the mistaken belief that markets always revert to historical norms. 01:15:09 - How to attend our new value investing event in Big Sky, Montana, bringing together passionate investors for deep discussions and meaningful connections.

Participatory politics is what makes our democracy work, but it also supposes that those who are participating are doing so in good faith. How do we handle people who want to use the tools of participation -- things like open records requests and open meetings -- as soap boxes for narcissistic jeremiads? What if the people participating aren't intent on being constructive, but instead are out to just burn everything down (figuratively speaking)? The City of Dickinson will soon hold a special election in which the incumbent, city commissioner Jason Fridrich, who was recalled to the ballot by petitioners, will run unopposed after the leader of the petitioning campaign, a local gadfly prolifically active on social media and in the public comment period at city meetings, chose not to run. This exercise in futility will cost the taxpayers of Dickinson tens of thousands of dollars, and what does it accomplish? Satisfying the ego of a minority faction of malcontents? "I bite my tongue," Dickinson Mayor Scott Decker said on this episode of Plain Talk of his efforts to keep his composure while getting berated during public meetings. "I'm patient," he continued, "but our patience is wearing thin." Decker and his community are struggling with balancing the sort of openness and transparency that allows certain members of the public to verbally abuse elected officials, and accuse them of all manner of perfidy, with the need to just get on with the public's business. Why should members of the public, attending a city meeting to learn about budgets, or taxes, or a zoning issue, be subjected to long-winded tirades that often have little to do with city business? This isn't just a Dickinson problem. Local governing entities across North Dakota -- indeed, across America -- are struggling with these problems. During his interview, Decker offered some fascinating insight on what it all looks like from a seat in local government. Also on this episode, Travis Finck, North Dakota's top public defender, talks about his office's struggles amid funding shortfalls, and his efforts to convince lawmakers to fund his lawyers on par with what prosecutors receive. "Right now we're not worried about a level playing field," Finck told us. "We're not even in the arena. If you want to participate in Plain Talk, just give us a call or text at 701-587-3141.

On today's episode, Clay and Kyle give an overview of their best quality stock idea for Q4 2024. This quarter, they discuss Mastercard.

Alongside Visa, Mastercard operates in a duopolistic industry which enables them to continue to grow for long time periods with little capital investment. The company is also held in many superinvestors portfolios, including Chuck Akre, Dev Kantesaria, Warren Buffett, Francois Rochon, Guy Spier, and Tom Russo — many of which have been featured on our podcast. IN THIS EPISODE YOU'LL LEARN: 00:00 - Intro 02:06 - An overview of Mastercard's business model and what happens when we make everyday payments. 09:51 - Why Fintech companies aren't a threat to Mastercard and Visa. 14:44 - Why Mastercard and Visa have one of the strongest moats in the world. 44:32 - The potential risks of investing in Mastercard. 57:30 - Our thoughts on Mastercard's valuation. 01:08:36 - Our updated thoughts on Evolution AB. 01:19:15 - TIP's next event in Omaha for our TIP Mastermind Community.

Join us as we hear from Robin Bialecki ED of the Easthampton Community Center about her dedicated approach to helping the community meet its needs. Under her leadership (since 2008) the ECC has grown to helping all four counties reach the gaps that they have in their respective needs. From food insecurity, housing, job loss, relocation, and more, the ECC has risen to the level that the clients demand (open 7 days). Robin and her team have a hard time saying no and as a result have steadily increased their capacity to serve more and more clients for over 46 years. As one of the only gluten and allergy free pantries in WMA they get many requests for food specific and sensitive care products. Robin gets this done through her over 200 volunteer staff that help throughout the year, including Pat Brough, Sales and Marketing Director for Finck & Perras Insurance. 10 years ago, he helped co-create the much beloved event Give Em the Bird 5K which is a benefit for the ECC. In 2015, they raised 10,000 and they now hope to raise more than 35,000 this year. With over 55 sponsors, I think they have a shot at having their best year ever.

Episode 212 is a special wander back to the autopsy with guest Rick Russo who is my JFK sidekick friend and co-producer of a series of twelve episodes on our JFK Enduing Secret You Tube Channel entitled Mysteries of the Enduring Secret. Earlier, we completed 30 or so episodes on the fantastic goings on that encompass this part of the JFK story. The story at Bethesda and the story of the autopsy. You may have thought that we were done with the autopsy, but this episodes reveals shocking new evidence.In this episode, Rick reveals something related to the autopsy at Bethesda that very few people know about, still to this day... a fact which seemingly ties together so much of the incongruent testimony and story telling that confounds the evidence at Bethesda and the autopsy itself. Finally, we can connect the dots in a logical way. What you will hear is far out and fantastic. So don't miss it. And the discussion is not over with this one reach back episode because we are hosting a follow up video interview and debate on our Your Tube Channel which features the famed JFK researcher and author William Matson Law and Rick Russo as we go back in time and more fully discuss Rick's finding with two of the most capable JFK subject matter experts on the planet. Our episodes have now begun to explore an array of matters that dive into a deeper darkness related to what went on that day in Dallas and in the period before and after the assassination. Matters that possibly point to a wider and more sinister plot to kill the president and that clearly call into question the theory that there was a lone assassin. Complex cases without an eyewitness that can actually identify the shooter make the forensic and circumstantial evidence that much more important. Ironically, problems abound with much of the evidence in this case. Evidence that is complex, incomplete and sometimes conflicting. Even as early as 1964, rumors and serious concerns over the lone gunman theory and the evidence that might contravene it, were becoming a major concern for the government and the commission. Conspiracy theories were contrary to the government's stated narrative from the very beginning. Stay tuned as there are many more episodes to come!This series comprehensively explores the major facts, themes, and events leading up to the assassination in Dealey Plaza and the equally gripping stories surrounding the subsequent investigation. We review key elements of the Warren Commission Report , and the role of the CIA and FBI. We explore the possible involvement of the Mafia in the murder and the review of that topic by the government's House Select Committee on Assassinations in the 1970's. We explore the Jim Garrison investigation and the work of other key figures such as Mark Lane and others. Learn more about Lee Harvey Oswald the suspected killer and Jack Ruby the distraught Dallas night club owner with underworld ties and the man that killed Oswald as a national TV audience was watching. Stay with us as we take you through the facts and theories in bite sized discussions that are designed to educate, and inform as well as entertain the audience. This real life story is more fascinating than fiction. No matter whether you are a serious researcher or a casual student, you will enjoy the fact filled narrative and story as we relive one of the most shocking moments in American History. An event that changed the nation and changed the world forever.
