Brett Ballantini is joined by our pre- and post-Rule 5 South Side Sox writers, Hannah Filippo and Melissa Sage-Bollenbach, in an attempt to wrap our heads around what just happened with the White Sox at the Winter Meetings. That's not easy to do, as the White Sox gained a prime young arm in Jedixson Paez — but lost one much closer to the majors (and thus a more viable a Rule 5 pick) in Peyton Pallette.

The Jay Thomas Show from Thursday November 13th, 2025.  Guests include Randy Monson, Perry Miller and John Tranham.

We are back today with part 21 of our Joseph Smith Podcast series with Dr. John Turner, discussing his new book Joseph Smith: The Rise and Fall of an American Prophet.In this episode, we explore one of the most fascinating and consequential moments in early Latter-day Saint history –the Kirtland Bank Scandal. Chapter 18 titled “Follies” (1836-1837), captures a turbulent period when Joseph SMith and the Saints in Kirtland, Ohio, faced financial ruin, internal dissent, and the unraveling of faith and community.We trace how the ambitious completion of the Kirtland Temple left the Saints deep in debt and how Joseph Smith's attempt to solve these financial woes through the creation of the Kirtland Safety Society Bank (or “anti” Bank) spiraled into one of the earliest crises of the Restoration. Against the backdrop of President ANdrew Jackson's anti-bank crusade and the Panic of 1837, the Saints' experiment with banking, prophecy, and faith would test their loyalty, their leadership, and their limits.The story unfolds through dramatic events: Joseph and Sidney hiding from sheriffs, treasure-digging expeditions to Salem in search of divine relief from debt, and the chaotic collapse of confidence in the unchartered “anti-bank.” We discuss how this episode intertwined religious revelation and financial desperation – and how it triggered what became the largest apostasy in early church history.Please purchase the book ⁠here⁠.To support this series please donate ⁠here⁠. One half of all donations will go to Dr. Turner for as long as he is participating in the series.___________________YouTubeAt Mormon Stories we explore, celebrate, and challenge Mormon culture through in-depth stories told by members and former members of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints as well as scholars, authors, LDS apologists, and other professionals.  Our overall mission is to: 1.

In this episode, Lee dives into the hyperbolic claims from Democratic leaders and the mainstream media about the supposed threats to free speech and the rise of a “dictatorship” in America. From DNC Chairman Ken Martin warning about a “break the glass” moment to Joe Biden framing minor late-night disruptions as evidence of grave free speech crises, the episode examines the overblown narrative. The discussion also explores Elon Musk's battles with the DOJ, government pressure on tech platforms, and the broader context of political overreach. Listeners get a critical look at how claims of authoritarianism are exaggerated while historical and factual context is ignored.

In this episode we answer emails from Adam, Private Cowboy, and Jose.  We discuss managed futures (again with references!), Bill Bengen's latest book and how it integrates into our approach, and the pros and cons of a Vanguard Personal Advisor-created portfolio and the hypocritical quandaries it creates with the gods of Simplicity.Links:Demystifying Managed Futures:  Demystifying Managed FuturesBloomberg Presentation On Investments In Inflationary Environments:  MH201-SteveHou-Bloomberg.pdfDunn Capital Analysis:  High-Vol-Trend-Following-Trend-Index-Edition-0825-DIGITAL.pdfKardinal Financial Video:  What is Alternative Investing?Interview of Bill Bengen:  Episode 195: The 4% Rule and Beyond: Retirement Strategies with Bill BengenWeird Portfolio:  Weird Portfolio – Portfolio ChartsAfford Anything Episode:  #618: How to Retire at 50 While Supporting Aging Parents, with Frank Vasquez - Afford AnythingCorey Hoffstein Interview:  Show Us Your Portfolio: Corey HoffsteinBreathless AI-Bot Summary:The perfect asset allocation isn't a formula—it's a framework built on uncorrelated assets that dance to different drummers during market storms. This episode dives deep into managed futures, one of the most powerful yet misunderstood portfolio diversifiers available to individual investors.Three listener questions explore how managed futures fit within retirement portfolios, particularly for those approaching their post-career years. Frank breaks down why managed futures have essentially zero correlation to stocks, bonds, and even gold, making them uniquely valuable during both inflationary crises (like 2022) and deflationary periods (like 2008). He references new research from Dunn Capital comparing various alternative strategies and explains how ETFs like DBMF have democratized access to institutional-quality diversification.Beyond managed futures, the episode synthesizes Bill Bengen's latest safe withdrawal rate research with Ray Dalio's "Holy Grail" principle of uncorrelated assets. While Bengen's new book doesn't explicitly analyze alternatives, Frank connects these complementary approaches to formulate practical guidelines: maintain 40-70% equity exposure divided between growth and value, use 15-30% treasury bonds for recession protection, allocate 10-25% to alternatives, and limit cash to under 10%.The discussion takes a critical look at cookie-cutter financial advice, particularly questioning whether paying 0.3% annually to a Vanguard advisor provides value when their recommendations often involve overlapping funds and questionable international bond allocations. Frank challenges the "worship of simplicity" that permeates financial discussions while exposing the irony that these same advisors often recommend complex multi-fund portfolios.What emerges is a call for "system two" thinking—the willingness to incorporate new information rather than clinging to outdated formulas out of consistency.Support the show
