Fujiwara no Michinaga is on top of the world, but there's one final hurdle to overcome. His deceased brother's daughter is still the leader of the emperor's harem, and his closest confidant in the world. Without a grandson to make crown prince, he'll be finished. What is to be done?

One week before America celebrates its 250th birthday, Braver Angels will hold its annual convention in Philadelphia, the city where the Declaration of Independence was signed in 1776.More than one thousand citizen delegates— Blues, Reds, and Independents— will be in the same place together over four days, June 25-28. They will honor the final words of the Declaration's authors: “we mutually pledge to each other our Lives, our Fortunes and our sacred Honor.”In Philadelphia “we will figure out how to renew that pledge to strengthen our civic bonds together,” says podcast guest, Convention Director Mark Metzger. “The theme is 1776-2026, a pledge renewed. We're looking at what that pledge meant… at the start of the new nation, and what it means to us today.”America's 250th anniversary focuses national attention on who we are as a nation, and who we hope to become. The Braver Angels Convention will play an active and engaging role in this national endeavor. The Declaration was not only a statement of independence from Great Britain, it was also a declaration of dependence on one another. Debates will be held, speeches made, workshops organized, music played, and films shown at this convention. This episode also discusses the meaning and goals of courageous citizenship.“True interdependence insists that rural conservatives and urban progressives, religious and secular citizens, activists and traditionalists do not have to agree in order to remain bound together,” says Jeff Thiemann of the Braver Angels Leadership Team. “It affirms that every group brings dignity and distinct experiences, and that our shared future depends on facing common challenges together.”Mark Metzger joined Braver Angels in 2022. In 2023, he oversaw operations and logistics for the Braver Angels National Convention in Gettysburg, PA, led the arts initiatives Four Score: A Memory Play and Braver Lens: Amateur Photography to Heal American Divides, and managed day-to-day operations of the National office. "How Do We Fix It?" reports on the people, projects and ideas of Braver Angels, the nation's largest volunteer-led grassroots organization devoted the healing civic divides. Hosted on Acast.

The Cardinals lost another close game on Sunday, dropping the finale 3-2 to the Mariners.Does this team have the makeup to respond and shake off the recent losses? Its manager believes the answer is yes.
In this episode of CURE America, host Donald T. Eason shares his thoughts on Star Parker's nationally syndicated column praising Supreme Court Justice Clarence Thomas's powerful speech delivered on April 15 at the University of Texas at Austin. Star Parker calls Thomas's address one of the greatest speeches marking America's upcoming 250th anniversary of the Declaration of Independence. Donald adds his personal reflections, noting how Thomas's words carry special force because they come from his own life — growing up poor in the Jim Crow South. Despite segregation and discrimination, Thomas and the Black community around him firmly believed that their equality and dignity came from God, not from government. Donald contrasts this with his own upbringing in Detroit and shares how he only truly embraced the Declaration of Independence after becoming a Christian in his early 20s. Justice Thomas emphasizes that the Declaration's most important line is the final pledge: the signers mutually committed "our Lives, our Fortunes, and our sacred Honor." Without courage and devotion, the words are just ink on paper. He warns that progressivism — a foreign idea from 19th-century Germany — rejects God-given rights in favor of government power, leading to family breakdown, massive debt, and weakened freedom. Thomas challenges Americans: Do we still have the courage of the soldiers who stormed Normandy? He calls on all of us to stand up for our founding principles with the same devotion that built this nation. As we approach America's 250th birthday, Donald encourages viewers to focus on faith, family, freedom, and personal responsibility — and to reject the idea that government, not God, is the source of our rights. Let us renew our commitment to the principles that made America the greatest nation on earth.

What if the reason you're not manifesting more money… has nothing to do with your strategy—and everything to do with your subconscious? In this episode, I sit down with Audrey Faust, also known as the Manifesting CFO, who blends financial strategy with manifestation and neuro coaching to help women manifest, manage, and multiply their money. We dive into the powerful connection between your money mindset and your financial results—and why so many people feel like they're doing "all the right things" but still not seeing the outcomes they want. ✨ In This Episode, We Talk About: Why manifestation and money strategy MUST go together The subconscious beliefs that can sabotage your income How childhood money patterns shape your financial reality The real reason lottery winners often lose their money How to identify hidden money blocks Reprogramming beliefs like "money has to be hard" The power of finding evidence to shift your mindset Why confidence and clarity increase when mindset shifts How to make financial decisions from alignment (not fear) When something isn't profitable… and when that's actually okay
After a rough stretch, investment firm AQR is on a 5-year hot streak thanks to a new AI infused investing strategy and strong tax-friendly returns, beloved by financial advisors. Last year was a banner year for many hedge funds and quant shops, and Greenwich, CT-based Applied Quantitative Research—better known as AQR—was no exception. Its assets under management have ballooned to $187 billion, increasing $73 billion in 2025. All three of its billionaire founders saw their net worths double. Cliff Asness, AQR's PhD-holding chief investment officer and largest individual shareholder with an estimated 30% stake, is now worth $6.3 billion, making him the 664th richest in the world. Cofounders John Liew and David Kabiller each saw their net worths jump to over $2 billion. The three founders—who started AQR in 1998 after working together at Goldman Sachs Asset Management—are all heavily invested in AQR's funds, tying their own fortunes to the firm's performance. Last year AQR's core multi-strategy Apex fund, which has $6.7 billion in assets, returned 19.4%, while its Delphi long-short fund (also $6.7 billion in assets) returned 16.7%, according to a person familiar with the matter who asked for anonymity to share private information. On average over the last five years the two funds have each returned 16.6% on an annualized basis, the person added. (For comparison, the S&P 500 returned 14.4% annualized over that same time period). Among the firm's more than two dozen open-ended mutual funds, AQR's Equity Market Neutral Fund, with $3.2 billion in assets and around 2,000 positions, held both long and short, gained 26.5% in 2025. Over the last 5-years it has averaged 19.6% annually versus around 8% for most funds in its category. If AQR maintains last year's growth trajectory it will soon eclipse its previous all-time high of $226 billion in assets (in 2018), which would cap an impressive comeback for the firm, which managed less than $100 billion as recently as four years ago amid underperformance and customer outflows. AQR's turnaround has coincided with its full-throated embrace of AI and deliberate expansion of machine-learning techniques across research and trading. As a factor-based investor, AQR traditionally sought to use value investing metrics like price-to-book or return on equity to determine which equities in the market are over or undervalued. It then relied on human input to assign weights to the various factors they use to drive stock selection. Now, machine learning is helping do that—detecting complex interactions between factors, recalibrating their weights in real time, mining huge datasets for predictive signals. On the research side, natural language processing (think ChatGPT or Claude) is helping analysts comb through reams of data to improve their models. AQR, whose founders Asness and Liew were schooled under the University of Chicago's efficient market Nobel Laureate economist Eugene Fama, was late to the AI party compared to peers like Renaissance Technologies and D.E. Shaw. AQR hired its first head of machine learning in 2018, and that person lasted just seven months in the job. But his replacement, Brian Kelly, a Yale finance professor, has made a big splash. In December 2021, Kelly co-published a 141-page academic paper, The Virtue of Complexity in Return Prediction, which concluded that more sophisticated machine learning models outperformed simpler models in forecasting stock returns and constructing investment portfolios. Several academics wrote their own papers in response that disputed Kelly's findings saying that the research relied on an overly narrow dataset. AQR has defended the paper and continues to stand by its findings. More recently, Asness himself has taken up the mantle of AI evangelizer-in-chief. He remarked that AQR has “surrendered more to the machine” and that AI was coming for his own job. Despite all the talk, AQR insiders insist AI has not extinguished human input. “ML and AI are definitely paying dividends in our process, but they're evolutionary, not revolutionary, to what we do,” says a person at the company. To wit, the revolutionary stuff appears to be happening in the less sexy distribution side of the business, where AQR is meeting rising demand from financial advisors seeking tax-friendly funds for their wealthy clients. This category of investor—rather than AQR's traditional institutional client base like pension funds and endowments—is now its largest source of inflows. The CEO of Affiliated Managers Group, which owns a minority stake in AQR, said during last month's earnings call that AQR's advisory client base is “driving significant organic growth,” and that its own full-year net inflows of $51 billion were “primarily driven by AQR.” Read the full story on Forbes: By John Hyatt https://www.forbes.com/sites/johnhyatt/2026/03/16/how-3-billionaire-investors-used-ai-to-double-their-fortunes-in-a-year/ Learn more about your ad choices.

What happened to real estate investing? From 2010 until 2022 everyone wanted to buy real estate. Fortunes were being made, cash flow was plentiful in many markets, and real estate seemed to only go up…until it didn't. Now influencers are saying “real estate is dead,” some investors have given up on financial freedom, and many are taking a pause. But, if you ask any American if home prices will go up in the next ten years, they will reply “of course!” Is it the same with stocks, crypto, precious metals? Not at all. So, where are we at in the cycle? Is this the bottoming-out period that 2030s investors will look back on and wish they could have bought, or is this the new normal now that the “goldilocks era” of investing is over. Today, we're answering two questions: What happened to real estate investing and why we're still investing in it, today. It may not be as easy, but it's still looking so worth it as crypto falls off a cliff, stocks see their worst weeks in years, and real estate deals get more meat on the bone. This is why we're still investing in real estate today, even if we'll never return to the 2010s era. In This Episode We Cover What happened to real estate investing? Why cash flow was uniquely easy to get in the 2010s Market pain = opportunity: the real reason why experienced investors are heavily buying in 2026 The “get rich quick with real estate” expectations are wrong (but you can still retire early with rentals) How we're changing our strategies in 2026 to buy at bigger discounts and protect against downside risk And So Much More!

The stock market crash of 1929 marked the end of the Roaring Twenties and the beginning of the Great Depression. Fortunes were lost, unemployment skyrocketed, and food was often scarce. This week, we take a look at some of the ingenuity and heroics that kept people fed. First, we hear from Lance Zaal, the newest owner of the historic Lalaurie Mansion, perhaps best known as the most haunted house in New Orleans' French Quarter. But Lance has uncovered a little-known part of the site's history. Before the turn of the 20th century and through the Great Depression, it was owned by William Warrington, a philanthropist who turned the building into a community center that fed and housed those in need. Equipped with photos and documents he's dug up, Lance paints for us a very different picture of 1140 Royal Street. During those lean years of the Depression, struggling households would often save costs by limiting their food budgets. Food writer Anne Byrn explains how mayonnaise became an essential home staple. Along the way, we also learn about some of the recipes folks used to stretch their meals and ingredients as much as possible.

Most of us were never taught this stuff. So, where do you actually start? Thirty-nine states now require a personal finance course to graduate from high school. That's real progress — and it still might not be enough. Because financial education isn't a one-time event. It's a living curriculum that has to grow with you, stay connected to your actual life, and — crucially — help you get out of your own way when things get emotionally charged. This week, Joe and the crew build that curriculum from the ground up. Whether you're 22 or 52, there's a starting point here for you. Rubin Miller — Financial advisor, founder of Peltoma Capital, and author of the Fortunes and Frictions blog. Came from the investment world before financial planning, which means he sees the whole game differently and isn't afraid to say so on LinkedIn. Paula Pant — Afford Anything host, behavioral finance truth-teller, and the person who goes on record this week with a very confident guess about the trivia answer. OG — The basement's own financial planner, father of a teenager who wants to day trade, and enthusiastic opponent of giving the government any money he doesn't absolutely have to. On building the foundation: Why the first step in any financial plan is an honest accounting of where everything actually stands: income, spending, assets, debt, all of it What's coming up in the next three to five years and why that question matters more than any abstract retirement calculation Why teaching a 17-year-old about mortgages probably doesn't stick and what actually does The one thing traditional savings accounts do really well (hint: it's great for banks, not for you) Why your behavior matters more than your math and what to do about it On protecting what you're building: The insurance mistake most people make: spending too much protecting low-probability events and too little protecting high-probability ones Why disability insurance is more expensive than life insurance and what that price difference is actually telling you When improving your credit score should not be your priority (this one surprises people) Why debt is never really "good," just occasionally less bad On growing your money: What an investment philosophy actually is and why you need one before you pick a single fund The behavioral biases — recency bias, loss aversion, the availability heuristic — that make smart people do dumb things with their portfolios Why nobody ever thinks they're panicking. They just think the circumstances changed. Why taxes are a year-round event, not a February problem The financial media teaches you to chase. New strategy, hot sector, better fund. But the research keeps landing in the same place: most investors' biggest obstacle isn't information. It's themselves. The curriculum that actually helps isn't the one that covers the most ground. It's the one that connects to your real life, your real timeline, and the emotional triggers that quietly blow up even the best-laid plans. Start there. Everything else builds on top. Rubin joins the crew for the first time and immediately plays trivia on Jesse Cramer's behalf — which feels both generous and karmic, given that Jesse and his wife Kelly just welcomed a new baby into the world (on Jesse's birthday, no less). Doug brings the Eddie Murphy birthday trivia energy. Paula goes on record with a very confident guess. OG applies his usual ironclad logic to arrive at his number. Someone wins. Someone absolutely should not have said what they said out loud before the answer was revealed.

While Lilly’s position in the obesity market and wider GLP-1 space has remained largely unshakeable in recent months, a crack in the company’s armor may be forming, according to at least one analyst. As that assessment dealt a blow to the company’s stock price in recent weeks, Lilly is plowing forward all the same with more details on its next wave of potential incretin drugs. In this week’s episode of "The Top Line," the Fierce Pharma team breaks down Lilly’s recent HSBC downgrade, what it signals for the GLP-1 and obesity markets, and the data shaping the company’s next wave of diabetes and weight loss products. Fierce’s Eric Sagonowsky is joined by Kevin Dunleavy and Fraiser Kansteiner to unpack the latest and assess the commercial narrative around GLP-1s so far. To learn more about the topics in this episode: With downgrade, HSBC casts doubt about Lilly's 'stairway to heaven' trajectory Lilly's triple-G bet lowers blood sugar, prompts 16.8% weight loss in phase 3 diabetes trial Lilly's obesity triple threat smashes efficacy expectations in phase 3 but proves intolerable for some Novo’s CagriSema tops semaglutide in ph. 3 diabetes study See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
Jesse is joined by Rubin Miller—former Dimensional Fund Advisors insider, founder and CIO of Peltoma Capital Partners, author of the Fortunes and Frictions blog, and national chess master—for a wide-ranging conversation about how investment philosophy, behavioral discipline, and real-world client psychology intersect. Rubin pulls back the curtain on how factor tilts like small-cap, value, and profitability work. The discussion moves beyond theory into practice, tackling commoditization in passive investing, the tradeoffs between index funds and structured tilts, and the uncomfortable truth that great investment decisions can look wrong for years. Rubin also challenges spreadsheet-only thinking, defending dollar-cost averaging for large windfalls as a behavioral risk-management tool rather than a return-maximization tactic. Throughout, he emphasizes that the most important portfolio design principle isn't squeezing out incremental expected return—it's building a strategy clients can stick with when markets inevitably deliver noise, volatility, and surprise. The result is a candid, technically grounded, and deeply human look at what long-term investing actually demands. Key Takeaways: • Factor tilts—such as small-cap, value, and profitability—are grounded in decades of academic research but require patience to endure long droughts. • Expected returns dominate over long horizons; unexpected returns dominate in the short run. • Spreadsheet-optimal strategies are not always behaviorally optimal strategies. • The best portfolio is one an investor can stay invested in during extreme volatility. • Financial advisors add value not just through portfolio construction but through expectation management. • Long-term investing success depends less on brilliance and more on discipline, humility, and staying on the bus.
