In this episode of The PDB Afternoon Bulletin: New Israeli intelligence suggests Iran has moved key parts of its nuclear program into the heavily fortified Pickaxe Mountain complex, raising concerns that Tehran is shifting critical nuclear assets into a site designed to withstand future airstrikes. We explain why the underground fortress could become America's next military target. The State Department is warning that Cuba-linked groups are reportedly preparing coordinated nationwide actions targeting U.S. military bases, ICE facilities, and other federal sites if tensions between Washington and Havana continue to escalate.

Jeff interviews horror author Josh Hanson (King's Hill, The Woodcutters, Fortress, Marshbank, Minotaur Stories) about the relationship between horror and joy, which Hanson links to story-driven pleasure, safe transgression, and chasing the intensity of childhood fear. Hanson recounts discovering writing in college, burning out after an MFA at the University of Montana amid anti-genre attitudes and market-focused training, then returning to fiction around age 50 and establishing a daily routine that led to his debut. They discuss why haunted houses resonate as violations of domestic safety, and Hanson's upcoming novel Calliope Street (out July 29), a triptych about Jack and Avery, a fixer-upper with a basement collage “altar” that functions as a portal, identity misrecognition and threat, and suspicion after Avery's disappearance. Hanson cites Dario Argento's vibe-first approach as inspiration and discusses recent horror that is bringing him joy. Josh Hanson

Lorenzo Fiori describes Italy's extreme heatwave, with temperatures reaching 122 degrees, followed by the threat of violent thunderstorms.

Are you creating content that actually builds trust… or just chasing likes, views, and followers? Why do some businesses last for centuries while others disappear almost overnight? And what if the real purpose of your marketing isn't visibility, but risk reduction? In this episode, I'm sharing the biggest lessons from our recent Dog Daycare Success Academy immersion event at Lumley Castle, where the theme was Content in the Castle. You'll hear how DDSA members used the event to create stronger content plans, build deeper trust with future clients, and connect with other ambitious pet business owners from both sides of the Atlantic. I also unpack the bigger lesson I took from spending two days inside a 600-year-old castle: longevity doesn't come from staying the same. It comes from evolving, adapting, restoring, and strengthening what matters most. Using lessons from Steven Inalareedi's content training, the history of Lumley Castle, and long-lasting businesses like Kongō Gumi, Lloyd's of London, and The Royal Mint, I explain why every email, review, video, client story, article, and testimonial should become another stone in your fortress of trust. In this episode, you'll discover: Why Visibility Isn't Enough – How familiarity creates confidence, but trust is what creates sales. Content as Risk Reduction – Why your marketing should make prospects feel safer choosing you. The Fortress of Trust – How reviews, stories, testimonials, and useful content build long-term authority. Why Long-Lasting Businesses Evolve – What centuries-old organisations teach us about adapting without losing identity. The Real Goal of Content – Why every post, email, podcast, and video should make someone trust you more.

In this week's Live from the Vault, Andrew Maguire details how China's launch of the Hong Kong SGE gold gateway marks a historic shift in global gold pricing, as Beijing moves to challenge London and New York's long-held grip on the market. With the PBOC systematically draining Western gold reserves and central banks accelerating their shift away from dollar holdings, the precious metals expert outlines why he sees a US Treasury gold revaluation as no longer a distant prospect.

The Psalms: Prayer, Lament, Confession, Trust, and Praise In this final episode of Walking Through the Psalms, Dave Jenkins looks back over the whole Book of Psalms and considers what this inspired book teaches God's people about worship, prayer, lament, confession, trust, hope, and praise. The Psalms are not merely ancient songs. They are the prayer book of God's people. They teach us to bring the whole of life before the Lord: our joy, sorrow, fear, grief, sin, questions, and praise. Above all, the Psalms lead us to Jesus Christ, the true King, the righteous sufferer, the perfect worshiper, the good Shepherd, and the risen Lord who reigns forever. Episode Summary The Book of Psalms reveals the Lord as Creator, King, Shepherd, Judge, Redeemer, Rock, Fortress, Deliverer, and covenant-keeping God. Throughout the Psalms, God teaches His people to worship Him as He has revealed Himself in His Word, not according to human imagination. In this episode, Dave explains how the Psalms teach Christians to pray honestly and faithfully, lament with hope, confess sin and receive mercy, trust the steadfast love of the Lord, and praise God because He alone is worthy. The Psalms do not teach fake spirituality. They teach faith-filled honesty before the God who sees, hears, reigns, cares, and keeps His promises. The Psalms also expose our need for Jesus Christ. We do not pray, worship, trust, confess, or praise as we ought. That is why we need Christ, the perfect worshiper, faithful Son, true King, righteous sufferer, good Shepherd, final refuge, crucified Savior, risen Lord, and reigning King. Listen and Watch Key Scriptures Psalm 1:1–2 Psalm 42:5 Psalm 51:1–4 Psalm 150:6 2 Corinthians 1:20 1 Peter 5:7 Episode Highlights The Psalms teach us to worship the God who has revealed Himself in His Word. The Psalms teach us to bring the whole of life before God. The Psalms give words to God's people when we do not know what to pray. Biblical lament teaches us to grieve honestly while hoping in God faithfully. The Psalms teach us to confess sin and receive mercy. The Psalms steady our hearts on the steadfast love of the Lord. The Psalms lead us to Christ, the true King and righteous sufferer. The Psalms teach us that praise gets the final word for the people of God. Why This Matters Every part of life belongs before the Lord. The Psalms teach Christians to bring joy, sorrow, sin, fear, hope, and praise before God with reverence and honesty. They remind us that the Lord is near to His people, faithful to His promises, merciful to repentant sinners, and sovereign over all things. Because of Christ, the final word for the people of God will be praise. The Psalms teach us to pray, lament, confess, trust, hope, and praise the Lord until faith becomes sight and the people of God enter into everlasting worship.

Dries Verhoeven is theatermaker en beeldend kunstenaar. Hij maakt installaties en performances in de openbare ruimte, vaak in de vorm van interactieve installaties. In zijn werk onderzoekt hij op kritische wijze maatschappelijke pijnpunten. Hij ontving de Montblanc Young Directors Award en de VSCD Mimeprijs voor ‘U bevindt zich hier'. Met de realisatie van Dear beloved friend ontving hij een Gouden Kalf voor digitale cultuur. Op de 61e editie van La Biennale di Venezia presenteert hij, samen met curator Rieke Vos, ‘The Fortress', een kunstwerk dat de tegenstrijdigheden van de Biënnale als uitgangspunt neemt. The Fortress is een werk over zelfbescherming en behoudzucht in het licht van grote geopolitieke onzekerheid. Ellen Deckwitz gaat met Dries Verhoeven in gesprek.
Brandon Sedloff and Elizabeth Burton explore the shifting landscape of institutional investing, macro strategy, and the growing case for credit over traditional private equity allocations. Burton brings a unique perspective shaped by her time as an allocator at the Maryland State Retirement System and as CIO of the Employees' Retirement System of Hawaii before joining Fortress Investment Group as chief strategist. The conversation touches on her unconventional path into finance, the lessons she learned managing public pension capital, and why she believes floating rate credit deserves a larger role in institutional portfolios. They discuss: - Why floating rate credit offers better downside protection and fee alignment than private equity in a higher-rate environment - How debt monetization and money supply growth could push inflation back above 4% by year-end - Why AI is creating a divide between investors who can move quickly on co-investment opportunities and those constrained by governance structures - The consumer credit opportunity in prime and near-prime segments that many institutional investors are overlooking - How anchoring investment strategy to a single variable like the 10-year Treasury can simplify decision-making across asset classes This episode offers a clear-eyed view of the challenges facing institutional investors in the 2030s and the strategic shifts required to meet return targets in a persistently higher rate world.

Pick up my new book The American Nightmare! => Click Here! In Today's Episode This Monday kicks off a brand new week focused on one brutally honest theme: getting your sh*t together. Coach JB dives deep into the mindset required to manifest your reality, warning that a scattered man is easy prey, while a disciplined man is an unbreakable fortress. This episode sets the stage for a week of building your "war-ready framework," preparing you spiritually, physically, and financially before the tough times hit. Key Topics Discussed: Manifesting Your Reality: Coach JB explains the powerful progression of how what you believe in your heart becomes your thoughts, then your words, and eventually your physical reality. If you can see it in your mind, you will hold it in your hands. The Danger of Unconscious Habits: A reminder that what you repeatedly do gets ingrained in your subconscious mind and becomes an unconscious activity. Building Your Fortress: Every morning wasted, temptation fed, debt ignored, and excuse made will show up as a weakness when the "enemy" attacks. Strong men do not wait to react when things go wrong; they build the wall before the war. The War-Ready Framework: An overview of the week's upcoming topics, which will challenge you with a "win for the week" and cover the battle of comfort versus discipline, tactical application, and daily execution. Preparing for the Storm: Coach JB reflects on the cycle of easy times creating weak men and hard times creating strong men. He urges listeners to become strong now, during decent times, to prepare for the tough times that are likely coming. The Weekly Podcast Schedule: A breakdown of the show's Monday-Friday structure: Monday and Tuesday are philosophical and strategic, Wednesday and Thursday are tactical, and Friday is pure motivation to get your life together. Final Takeaway: Stop waiting to react when the sht hits the fan. You must build your financial, physical, and spiritual fortress now.

In this episode, we kick things off by examining a strategic financial comeback landing at precisely the right moment for the intermodal sector. STG Logistics has emerged from Chapter 11 protection after slashing its funded debt by approximately ninety percent and securing one hundred fifty million dollars in fresh capital from Fortress, Fidelity and Invesco. The timing couldn't be better: intermodal is currently thirty-one percent cheaper than over-the-road truckload service, helping drive an eight percent year-over-year increase in total intermodal traffic on U.S. Class I railroads during the second quarter. Next, we explore a major wrongful death verdict sending shockwaves through the truckload sector. An El Paso jury has awarded one hundred four million dollars against Mesilla Valley Transportation and one of its drivers following a fatal crash in twenty twenty where an MVT driver and company trainer fell asleep at the wheel, causing his tractor-trailer to drift onto the shoulder and strike a parked box truck, killing co-driver Orlando Robles who was asleep in the sleeper berth. The jury awarded Robles' son twenty million dollars in compensatory damages and seven point five million dollars in punitive damages, with the overall verdict totaling one hundred four million dollars for the surviving family. Finally, we unpack a costly contractual bind forcing the U.S. Postal Service to fly mail it would rather send by truck. According to a report from the agency's Office of Inspector General, postal officials are spending more than intended because minimum volume commitments under its UPS air cargo contract prevent shifting more pieces to cheaper surface transportation. The percentage of First-Class mail traveling by air skyrocketed from two percent in October twenty twenty-four to fifty percent by March twenty twenty-five, directly contradicting the Postal Service's broader strategy to shift volume to trucking contractors and save money.

Did you know Japan fought against Germany in World War I? The Siege of Tsingtao is one of history's most fascinating and underrated military campaigns—and it's a story that completely reshapes how we understand WWI and Japan's rise as a global power. In this episode, we dive deep into the Siege of Tsingtao (1914), the pivotal World War 1 battle where Japan launched a massive military assault on the German colony of Tsingtao in China. This wasn't just another skirmish; it was a turning point that demonstrated Japan's military prowess, modernization, and strategic ambitions in Asia. We explore the WW1 naval battles, the military strategy behind the siege, and the aviation innovations that played a crucial role in this often-forgotten conflict. What made the Siege of Tsingtao unique? Unlike most of the European theater, this campaign showed how WWI truly was a global war. Japan's involvement wasn't a footnote—it was a major geopolitical move that would reshape Asia for decades. We discuss the key players, including notable military commanders, the complex dynamics between Japan, Germany, and Britain, and how this battle influenced modern warfare tactics.

St. Louis's new downtown curfew is already exposing a deeper problem — 41 minors picked up over the Fourth of July weekend, including two young teens whose parents couldn't even be bothered to come get them. Ryan Wrecker and Kim St. Onge don't sugarcoat it: this is a parenting crisis before it's a policing one. Then it's a street takeover at Wilmore Park with guns seized, a washed-out fireworks show that cost Bridgeton $40,000, and a look at MetroLink's brand-new turnstile system, complete with fencing that looks straight out of a border security briefing. Will it actually stop fare jumpers, or will day one prove Ryan and Kim right? This is the St. Louis Morning Brief, only on the Marc Cox Morning Show — stick around, more is coming up.

If life is to be rock solid, then family relationships—especially marriage—must be rock solid. No wonder Peter speaks to husbands after addressing wives. In his directive toward submission, he addresses citizens (and not government officials); he addresses servants (and not their masters). But when it comes to the home, he addresses both wives and husbands. Let's consider how a husband's love can make a woman feel firmly secure.

Timoleon and the Exile of Dionysius in Corinth. Guest Author: Professor James Romm. Dionysius the Youngereventually reclaimed his fortress, but Syracuse turned to Corinth for aid. Corinth sent Timoleon, a retired man leading a meager mercenary force. Surprisingly, Dionysius chose to abdicate rather than fight, negotiating a peaceful retirement in Corinth. The former tyrant lived his final years as a music teacher and priest. He famously claimed his ability to endure poverty proved he had learned from Plato. This fall from power gave rise to the proverb "Dionysius is in Corinth," signifying the inherent uncertainty of fortune and absolute power. 6

Financial Fortress by Stephen Powell https://www.amazon.com/Financial-Fortress-Stephen-Powell/dp/B0H4862V2S A sudden medical crisis or market crash can destroy decades of hard work in an instant. Are you building a financial plan that only works when everything goes right? In January 2022, financial professional Stephen Powell walked into the gym for a routine morning workout. Moments later, an aortic dissection caused him to collapse, paralyzing his left side, stripping away his speech, and leaving him with less than a 1% chance of survival. He survived by God's grace, but he woke up to a harrowing realization: He was the sole breadwinner, and his traditional financial plan had no backup for a real-life crisis. This life altering experience exposed a massive gap in modern financial literacy. Most people are expertly taught how to accumulate money, but they are never taught how to structure it. They blindly follow the standard formula buy stocks, maximize the 401(k), trust the process only to find themselves walking straight into the “Accumulation Trap.” In Financial Fortress, Powell shares his deeply personal journey and strips away traditional financial jargon to reveal how wealthy families truly protect, access, and transfer their money. This book is an architectural blueprint for the everyday family provider who carries heavy responsibilities and realizes that a high income alone is not the same as security. Through practical frameworks and eye-opening illustrations, Powell maps out the Four Pillars of a Financial Fortress: Protection, Growth, Control, and Legacy. You will learn how to transition from simple accumulation to true financial architecture, giving every dollar a distinct job. Stop managing your future with hope and optimism alone. Build a system. Achieve clarity. Protect the people you love.
Season 8, Episode 2: How does one of the nation's largest real estate capital pools navigate a "real estate recession" while the rest of the economy stays hot? Today, we sit down with Eli Edwards, Managing Director at Fortress Investment Group and Head of US Real Estate Equity, to break down the firm's strategy in a shifting market. Eli shares how Fortress spotted the San Francisco multifamily turnaround while the "doom loop" narrative was still in full swing. We also get into the "silver tsunami" in senior housing, why student housing is now a game of picking idiosyncratic winners, and how they are leveraging Delaware Statutory Trusts (DSTs) to provide tax-efficient solutions for retail investors. Whether you're interested in distressed debt, Core Plus yields, or the future of the Sun Belt, this episode is a must-listen. Join us as we dive into the conviction, timing, and risk discipline that helped Eli and his team at Fortress identify growth opportunities where others only saw risk.

Build-to-Suit Industrial Real Estate: Mastering Tenant Capital Strategy with Joe Neckles Recorded live from IAMC in Little Rock, Industrial Advisors host Joe Neckles of Fortress Investment Group to discuss Fortress's single-tenant triple-net lease strategy and his focus on fully capitalizing build-to-suit projects with developers and users. Neckles explains Fortress invests via existing net-lease acquisitions, sale-leasebacks, and build-to-suits, emphasizing direct engagement with developers, tenant reps, and end users. The conversation highlights why tenants choose build-to-suit over spec space or ownership: specialized needs (manufacturing, cold storage, data centers), limited market availability, and the ability to invest capital into their core business rather than real estate. Typical build-to-suit leases target 15+ years, ideally 20+ with extension options, and can reduce tenant risk through guaranteed maximum price contracts and delivery timelines; Fortress supports power needs by funding solutions once sites are vetted. They note improving build-to-suit activity after uncertainty in 2024–2025 and tighter construction lending in 2023, with some tenants taking advantage of a softer industrial market to lock long-term rates. 0:00 Intro and Joe Neckles Background 2:10 Building Strategic Industry Partnerships 3:45 Why Choose Build to Suit Over Spec 5:15 Power Capacity and Infrastructure Challenges 6:35 Lease vs Ownership Strategy 7:55 Mitigating Risk and Project Timelines 9:15 Industrial Market Trends and Outlook

Patrick K. O'Donnell recounts how in late summer 1944, the Rangers were assigned to assist in capturing the port of Brest, a fortress Hitler ordered to be held at all costs. During a scouting mission, Lieutenant Edlund and three scouts discovered a narrow path through a massive minefield filled with "Bouncing Bettys." Edlund bluffed his way into the command bunker of a major German gun battery, which housed battleship-sized 12-inch guns. Once inside, he threatened the commanding officer with a hand grenade, vowing to blow them both up unless the entire fort surrendered. His audacity worked, and over 200 Germans surrendered the battery without a fight, earning Edlund the Distinguished Service Cross. Following the fall of Brest, the Rangers were moved to the Hürtgen Forest, a location described as a "factory of death." The forest was a nightmare of dense mines, bunkers, and pre-registered artillery fire. American command made the strategic error of attempting to push through the forest rather than bypassing it, resulting in casualties comparable to the entire Korean War. By December, the Rangers were held in reserve near the town of Bergstein. Their objective was Hill 400, the highest point in the forest, which provided a commanding view of the entire region. Unbeknownst to the Allies, the Germans defended the hill with fanaticism because it overlooked the secret assembly areas for Hitler's planned Ardennes Offensive, the Battle of the Bulge. (5)1944
