Connect with Early Riders — https://www.earlyriders.com/contactConnect with Onramp — https://onrampbitcoin.com/contact-us/Presented collaboratively by Early Riders & Onramp Media…Final Settlement is a weekly podcast covering capital markets, dealmaking, early-stage venture, bitcoin applications and protocol development.The CLARITY Act has slipped to a September 15 Senate vote, and Bitcoin did not move. This week Michael, Liam, and Brian make the case that stalled legislation on top of the Coldcard fallout, BIP-110 infighting, and Saylor selling, with the price still holding, is what a bottom looks like rather than a top. They run through a brutal week for Bitcoin infrastructure: BTCPay Server, Zeus, and Boltz all disclosing vulnerabilities or going dark, with Boltz warning that attackers now iterate faster than a team its size can patch. On the AI side they cover Kimi K3 escaping an isolated sandbox, Sam Altman's comments on Astra and who gets frontier access, an agent that cancelled a stranger's gym reservation to move its owner up the waitlist, and Cloudflare Wallets arriving as agent requests climb 1,700% and cross half of all network traffic. They close on the deals: Yellow Card's $40M round, Sapium's $35M Series A for the agent routing layer, Coinbase losing BVNK to Mastercard despite bidding $700M more, Airtable selling for $1.29B after an $11.7B peak, and what Block's Buzz did during the Coldcard incident.Chapters00:00 - Coldcard update: thefts slow, 2,000 BTC still gone01:00 - BTCPay Server, Zeus, and Boltz all disclose vulnerabilities02:51 - Why open source Bitcoin code became the target04:11 - Boltz: attackers now iterate faster than we can patch05:22 - Liam: Bitcoin itself is not the vulnerability06:40 - Good actors handicapped when US frontier models refuse10:04 - Sam Altman on Astra and keeping powerful models from the few11:12 - Only 2% of US households pay for AI13:34 - Kimi K3 escapes its isolated sandbox14:34 - Why non-deterministic models cannot be reliably contained19:35 - An agent cancels a stranger's gym reservation20:58 - Cloudflare Wallets and the programmable agentic internet23:45 - Agent traffic passes human traffic26:42 - ARK on Cloudflare's earnings: agent requests up 1,700%31:07 - Privy's CRM breach and the limits of mobile wallets32:13 - The CLARITY Act slips to September 1533:45 - Why stalled legislation plus a flat price looks like a bottom35:56 - Yellow Card raises $40M for African stablecoin rails37:40 - Sapium raises $35M for the AI agent routing layer40:14 - Coinbase bid $2.5B for BVNK and lost to Mastercard at $1.8B42:17 - Airtable sells for $1.29B after an $11.7B peak45:32 - The Architecture Problem and where custody goes next47:48 - Why every firm ends up at multi-institution custody49:22 - Buzz, Goose, and how Block moved in hours on Coldcard54:45 - GPU hours as crude oil: an open source AI analogy55:34 - Sergey Brin returns to Gemini, Meta ships Muse CodeIf you found this valuable, please subscribe to Early Riders Insights for access to the best content in the ecosystem weekly: https://www.earlyriders.com/researchKeep up with Michael:https://x.com/MTangumaKeep up with Liam:https://x.com/Lnelson_21Keep up with Brian:https://x.com/BackslashBTC

Leave an Amazon Rating or Review for my New York Times Bestselling book, Make Money Easy! Check out the full episode: https://greatness.lnk.to/1962DM A client was once punished in Catholic school just for writing with their left hand. Patrick Teahan carries that story with him. It shows up in the therapy work he does now, helping adults reconnect with the version of themselves who felt neglected, abandoned, or not good enough. He teaches something called dialoguing. You write with your dominant hand as the adult. Then you switch to your non-dominant hand and let your inner child answer. A lot of people write that second part in cursive, without even meaning to. Patrick explains what happens to people who never do this work. They don't get angry so much as numb. They flinch from a kiss on the cheek. They joke their way out of closeness instead of leaning into it. And underneath that joke is a kid who learned a long time ago that tenderness wasn't safe.

This week's featured story comes from the Junkyard Tales collection. It's called "The Cool House." It is hot in the Junkyard, and the animals are worried about Mr. Flinch, the old possum. They know that the intense heat is not good for him, so they devise a plan to create a cool house under the Junkyard Warden's air-conditioned office. But how will they construct this space without the Warden knowing? And how will they sneak in Mr. Flinch? And what happens when all the other animals hear about this deliciously cool house?

Most of us don't pray honestly. Not because we're trying to be fake, but because we're not sure God can handle the real version. So we edit. We soften. We bring the composed version and hope it's enough.Psalm 13 blows that up. David shows up with accusations, exhaustion, and zero filter...and God didn't redact a word of it. He put it in the Bible.This message is about what makes that kind of honesty possible. It's about a love that was decided before you woke up this morning, that doesn't flinch at your anger or your doubt or your 2AM spiral. And it's about why the cross changes everything about how we pray in a "how long" season.Talk It Over:1. David prays with zero filter, accusation, exhaustion, raw honesty. When you pray, which version of yourself usually shows up? Why do you think that is?2. Observation #1 is about naming the gap between what God promised and what life actually feels like. What's a gap you've been afraid to name out loud, even to God?3. We talked about the 2AM spiral, where we're running scenarios, mapping outcomes, trying to think your way out of something thinking can't fix. What does your version of that look like, and have you ever brought it to God unfiltered?4. The pivot in verse 5 happens before anything changes. What would it look like for you to say "but I trust" right now…not because circumstances improved, but because 'hesed' doesn't change?5. David had a promise. We have the cross. How does knowing what 'hesed' actually cost change the way you pray in a "how long" season?+ + + + +Hey, while you're here, please help Generation by clicking the 'Subscribe' button, then click on the BELL

If you're stuck thinking "my ex was everything I ever wanted" this episode is going to hit hard in the best way. You'll hear from Sam, a Braveheart who walked away from a seven-year relationship with someone she deeply loved because one core desire never aligned: she wanted marriage, and he didn't. Even knowing that, getting over him felt impossible at first. In this conversation, we unpack what actually helped her release the emotional grip he had on her, stop romanticizing the relationship, and rebuild trust in herself after heartbreak. We talk about the exact mindset shifts and tools that helped her reduce desire and attachment to her ex so she could finally move forward instead of staying emotionally tied to someone unavailable. And the wild part? By the time her ex eventually got engaged, she had already met the love of her life, gotten married herself, had a baby, and genuinely didn't flinch at the news. If part of you still believes your ex was "the one" and you can't imagine wanting anyone else, this episode will show you what's actually possible on the other side of heartbreak.

Kouri Richins sat in a courtroom while three boys described being locked in rooms, having animals threatened, and living afraid — and she looked like she was listening to someone complain about a parking ticket. Eye rolls. Faces of disgust. Mouthed objections to her own lawyers while a child said he wants her gone forever.Psychotherapist Shavaun Scott joins Hidden Killers Live to walk through what those reactions reveal about who Kouri is when the pressure exposes her. Eric's father described a man whose youth players still break their huddle saying his name. His sisters described a family shattered. Amy disclosed she miscarried twins from the stress. Kouri's expression through all of it: irritation.Shavaun reads every visible behavior as a data point — the contempt, the whispered sidebars, the complete absence of empathy while her own children begged a judge for protection from their mother.Join Our SubStack For AD-FREE ADVANCE EPISODES & EXTRAS!: https://hiddenkillers.substack.com/Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

A wild week in politics puts conservatives on offense as Mike breaks down major redistricting wins and a shifting balance of power. While Democrats ramp up the rhetoric with threats of “maximum warfare,” leaders like Ron DeSantis make it clear they’re not backing down. Mike also dives into media narratives, strong economic signals, and the growing divide over America’s role abroad. A fiery CNN clash highlights just how heated things have become. As the dust settles, the big question remains: how far is too far, and who’s actually winning this fight?See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Don't flinch.Market corrections reveal whether you have a real retirement plan, especially if you are deciding whether to keep funding your TSP or 401(k), move toward the G Fund, or stay disciplined through market volatility.Most people don't realize this until the market forces the decision.This video breaks down what to do during a market correction, how TSP investing works in downturns, and why long-term retirement planning requires discipline over reaction.Here's the reality: dollar cost averaging, not chasing returns, and reducing risk a few years before retirement matter more than emotional reactions or trying to time the market.If you're feeling that pressure right now, this is exactly where a real plan matters.LINKS & RESOURCESChecklist Challenge:https://cdfinancial.org/checklist-challenge/Schedule a complimentary call if you want help building your retirement plan:https://calendly.com/charlesdzama/complimentary-15-minute-phone-call-youtubeNewsletter:https://cdfinancial.com/newsletterWHO ARE WE?CD Financial helps federal employees and near-retirees create sustainable, tax-smart retirement income.

Why would a loving God allow hell? Do dinosaurs disprove the Bible? Should Christians take psychedelics? In this message, we slow down and look at some big questions of faith through the lens of Scripture to build a faith that doesn't flinch.

The storm isn't your problem. Your foundation is. This morning my dog walked through pouring rain without flinching — until his feet hit a puddle. Soaking wet from head to toe, but the one thing he couldn't handle was unstable footing. And I realized standing there in the rain — he's figured out something most people never do. In episode #1487, I break down why storms aren't the threat you think they are, what it actually means to have a foundation that holds, and the one question you need to ask yourself to find out if yours is solid. The weather isn't changing. The question is what you're standing on when it hits. Hit play. Then check your foundation. Who This Episode Is For If every storm in life seems to shake you to your core — this one's for you. Key Takeaways Storms are unavoidable — stop trying to find a life with only sunny days and start building a foundation that holds in any weather Adversity isn't a detour from growth — it's the condition that produces it Storm chasers are real — don't be the person manufacturing drama just to have something to complain about A fast ascent built on a cracked foundation always gets exposed — the house always falls Your foundation is revealed by one thing: are you the same person when life is good as when it gets hard? Questions for Reflection When adversity hits, do you become a different person — or does your foundation hold? What is your foundation actually built on right now — faith, identity, values — and is it solid enough to stand on when things get icy? Are you chasing storms and calling it struggle, or are you genuinely building through the hard seasons? Action Steps Write down three things you stand for — not goals, not titles — core beliefs that define who you are regardless of circumstances. Think back to the last major storm in your life. Did your foundation hold? Identify exactly where it cracked and start reinforcing there. Find one area of your life where you've been focused on the weather instead of the footing. Shift your energy to the foundation this week. Featured Quote "When you know who you are and you're solid in your foundation, you can look at any storm life throws your way and say — it's just rain."

Back to London, where we renew our acquaintance with Detective Sergeant Larry Beck, Claire Redmond's partner. Larry seems to be privy to some news that's soon to be released to the public regarding what happened in the London Vampire affair.

Visit today's blog post here. Lately, I've been feeling a little "behind" in business. Not behind in a dramatic way, just not as far ahead as I'm used to being. Between the heaviness in the world and some personal challenges my family has been navigating, I've had to adjust my schedule, work a few late-night sessions, and give myself permission to not always be 57 steps ahead. In this episode, I'm sharing two powerful lessons I learned after spending over $11,000 and 100+ hours on a personal legal situation last year. Work that only just now paid off emotionally and practically. It reminded me that in business (and life), results are almost always delayed. We live in a world wired for instant gratification, but the most meaningful wins like $100K years, paid-off debt, buying homes, stable peace… often take months or years to fully land. I also talk about something we don't say out loud enough: how we can be deeply grateful our business supports us through hard seasons… and still wish we didn't have to spend our time and money navigating those hard things in the first place. Tune in for an honest conversation about delayed gratification, ambition, resilience, patriarchy, and gratitude. –– Connect with Anna on Instagram: @heartcentered.entrepreneur

If mastering negotiation could instantly increase your business worth, how differently would you handle your next deal? You negotiate every day—whether you call it that or not. From acquisition offers and partnership terms to real estate, compensation, and vendor contracts, you're constantly shaping outcomes that affect your company's growth and long-term business worth. The problem? Most leaders treat negotiation like a tug-of-war over price. In this episode, you'll learn why mastering negotiation is really about leverage, psychology, timing, and knowing when to walk away. By listening, you'll gain: A smarter framework for mastering negotiation that goes beyond price and focuses on leverage, certainty, and deal structure Proven tactics like "never go first," strategic silence, and the flinch to strengthen your position without creating conflict A clearer understanding of motivation and timing so you can spot desperation, avoid overpaying, and protect your business worth Press play now to sharpen your negotiation edge—and make your next deal one that compounds your business worth instead of quietly eroding it. Check out: 07:45 – Leverage Changes Everything A practical breakdown of how leverage actually works in real deals—foreclosures, timing pressure, experience, and certainty of close—and why price is rarely the most important factor. 18:30 – The Power of Walking Away A sharp discussion on why the best negotiators are willing to walk, how desperation shifts leverage, and why "who comes back first" often determines who really has the power. 29:10 – The Flinch, Silence & Controlling the Pen Tactical gold: how to use silence to make the other party negotiate against themselves—and why drafting the agreement gives you structural control over the deal.

Have you ever worked for a leader who smiled in meetings... but the room got quieter the moment they walked in?The kind of leader who talked about culture, values, and standards, yet people watched their words, measured their tone, and stayed just safe enough to get through the day.Here's the Caveat… That flinch tells a story numbers never will.In this episode, we're talking about the kind of leadership that looks successful on paper but quietly wears people down in real life. Not loud abuse. Not obvious failure. The subtle kind that hides behind pressure, expectations, and “this is just how we do things.”If you lead people, this conversation matters. Leadership isn't revealed by what you say when things are going well. It's revealed by how people feel when you enter the room.Let's talk about that.

Faith that depends on circumstances will eventually collapse. In Foresight: Faith That Doesn't Flinch, this message exposes the danger of situational faith—trusting God only when life feels cooperative—and shows why true faith must be anchored in God's Word, not emotions or outcomes. Through Hebrews, Proverbs, and the life of Joseph, we learn how trials test faith, produce endurance, and reveal whether our trust is built on moments or on an unshakable foundation in Christ. 

In this conversation, Tim Burrell, a seasoned real estate broker, shares his extensive experience in real estate negotiation, emphasizing the importance of empathy, understanding pain points, and building rapport. He discusses various negotiation techniques, including the 'Anchor and the Flinch,' and highlights the significance of trust in seller financing. Tim also provides insights into the emotional aspects of negotiation and how they can influence outcomes, making a case for collaborative rather than confrontational approaches.   Professional Real Estate Investors - How we can help you: Investor Fuel Mastermind:  Learn more about the Investor Fuel Mastermind, including 100% deal financing, massive discounts from vendors and sponsors you're already using, our world class community of over 150 members, and SO much more here: http://www.investorfuel.com/apply   Investor Machine Marketing Partnership:  Are you looking for consistent, high quality lead generation?

When you're naturally a people-pleaser or perfectionist, it's so easy to flinch the moment someone gives you critical feedback. One complaint and suddenly you're questioning everything, ready to completely revamp your business to avoid future criticism.I spent years turning myself inside out every time someone wasn't 100% satisfied. The constant bracing for complaints kept me in an exhausting state of reactivity.So I developed a completely different approach to receiving feedback. One that helps you discern between valuable input and projection, while staying connected to what you know is true about your work. This episode shows that when you're grounded in your foundation, feedback doesn't have to shake you. Sometimes the most powerful thing you can do is listen without immediately jumping to fix everything.BY THE TIME YOU FINISH LISTENING TO THIS EPISODE, YOU'LL DISCOVER:How getting grounded in your foundation eliminates the reactive flinch that happens every time someone gives you feedback (and why people-pleasers are especially vulnerable to this pattern).The exact moment someone says "this is overwhelming" or "I could just use ChatGPT" and the ONE shift in perspective that reveals whether their feedback is actually about your work or their own state.The 3 hidden reasons behind critical feedback that have nothing to do with the quality of what you've created (spoiler: their stress levels and consumption patterns are huge factors).What you need to STOP doing to finally create from your authentic vision instead of constantly reacting to market demands (this will feel uncomfortable if you're used to people-pleasing).And while you're here, follow us on Instagram @creativelyowned for more daily inspiration on effortlessly attracting the most aligned clients without spending hours marketing your business or chasing clients.

Together, they take a deep dive into the headline-dominating University of Idaho quadruple homicide, the chilling details of the Bryan Kohberger investigation, and the disturbing psychology behind one of the most talked-about suspects in recent true crime history. This episode delivers an unfiltered breakdown of the case, packed with exclusive FBI insight, expert criminal profiling, and critical forensic analysis.Gregory Yankow reveals insider knowledge of the FBI's investigative strategies, including cell tower forensics, victimology profiling, and theories surrounding Kohberger's stalking behavior toward Kaylee Goncalves and Madison Mogen. The episode explores why Xana Kernodle and Ethan Chapin may have been collateral victims in this brutal crime and dissects the timeline that placed Kohberger near the crime scene for weeks prior to the murders. Greg also explains the impact of unsealed court records, how investigators build airtight cases in high-profile killings, and what's likely to surface as this true crime case continues to unfold.The conversation turns raw and emotional as the hosts discuss the powerful victim impact statements during Kohberger's sentencing—especially the viral courtroom moment from Olivia Goncalves, who confronted her sister's killer face-to-face. The trio explores narcissism in violent offenders, prison dynamics for high-profile criminals, and how killers like Kohberger use psychological manipulation in and out of court. If you're a fan of true crime documentaries, FBI case files, or trending criminal justice stories, this is a must-watch episode of KBR: On the Mark—your new go-to source for real crime, real experts, and real talk.Timestamps: 00:01:03 – Meet Gregory Yankow: 23 Years in the FBI and the Nevin Shapiro Case 00:06:01 – Brutality Points to Intent: Were Kaylee and Madison the Primary Targets? 00:11:30 – Stalking Confirmed?

Hey friends, it's Amy! You know I always come in hot with faith—because let's be real, we are nothing without it. In this episode, I'm sharing from my heart about what it really means to live by faith when things don't look like they're changing. When the breakthrough isn't showing up yet. When your emotions are a mess. When logic says, “No way.”I'm talking about anchored faith—the kind that roots you when life shakes you.We dive into what it means to speak faith, think faith, and be faith in action. I share some personal moments when I had to choose faith over fear, even when everything in me wanted to retreat. I promise, if you've been feeling stuck or weary, this one will stir your spirit and help you stand firm.In this episode, I share:Why faith is a decision, not a feelingHow your words are creating your future—so let's align them with HeavenWhat the Bible really means when it says “the just shall live by faith”How to renew your mind daily and kick fear outWhy your breakthrough is often one act of obedience awayIf you're feeling pressed or like you've lost your footing, this is your reminder: You were made for this. Don't quit. Speak faith. Stand in it. And watch God move.You're not alone—and you're not behind. Let's keep walking by faith, not by sight.

A big episode. It includes what was originally a cut scene from the original Underwood and Flinch Underground podcast at Patreon. The scene ultimately became part of the podcast, and so it appears here. It returns us to Season 3 Ep 2 of Underwood and Flinch, just after David's return to England. The episode then moves forward in time to rejoin Claire Redmond, who has an unwelcome visitor in her bedroom.Music:Hitman Kevin MacLeod (incompetech.com)Licensed under Creative Commons: By Attribution 3.0 Licensehttp://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/3.0/
