Goddesses, Trophies, and the Bond of Achilles. Guest: Professor Emily Wilson. The gods in the Iliad often represent extreme human instincts, such as Aphrodite representing lust and Ares representing aggression. These deities are sometimes depicted as ridiculous because they flee the battlefield when wounded, whereas mortals must face their pain heroically. Within the Greek camp, the social structure is built around honor and "trophies," specifically enslaved women like Briseis, who are parceled out after military victories. While Briseis has a limited voice, she is shown to have a kind relationship with Patroclus, who is described as a multi-faceted character capable of both great kindness and brutal violence. Patroclus is not a "beta male" but a skilled warrior who mocks his victims as he kills them. The bond between Achilles and Patroclus is the most intimate and emotionally vulnerable relationship in the poem. Achilles' awareness of his own impending death and the violation of his honor by Agamemnon creates a deep-seated rage that drives the central plot. 41919

Why Modern Audiences Need a "Broken" James Bond The Broken James Bond might just be the version we've needed all along — and Ian Fleming saw it coming decades ago. In this episode of Cracking the Code of Spy Movies, Dan and Tom ask a question that might surprise even die-hard Bond fans: Is the James Bond from the movies actually the least interesting version of the character? Most people grew up with Movie Bond — the tuxedo, the gadgets, the unshakeable cool. But Fleming wrote someone very different. And when you put those two versions side by side, something unexpected happens. It turns out the gap between Movie Bond and Book Bond is much wider than most fans realize. And that gap says a lot about us — about the world we're living in right now, and what we actually need from our heroes. Dan and Tom dig into what Fleming's novels reveal that the movies never showed you. We look at why certain Bond actors got closer to the original than others. And we ask the big question: in a world that feels increasingly complicated and exhausting, which Bond actually speaks to where we are, today? The answer might change how you watch every Bond movie from here on out. ·       Five fast facts about this episode: ·       Fleming himself said Bond was not written to be a hero — or even likeable ·       The movie franchise deliberately moved away from Fleming's version — and for good reason ·       One Bond actor came closer to Fleming's original than any other — but still didn't quite get there ·       A single scene in one of the novels predicted exactly what modern audiences would eventually want ·       Amazon is rebooting Bond — and this episode explains exactly what's at stake creatively If you've ever felt like something was missing from the Bond movies, this episode is going to hit differently. Tell us what you think of our discussion of Ian Fleming's broken James Bond Have you read the novels?  If so, are we on track here?   If not, why not? Let us know your thoughts, ideas for future episodes, and what you think of this episode.

Peter Schiff warns the bubble is popping as crypto leads the decline, while the bond market faces another breakdown with the 10-year potentially breaking above 5%. He emphasizes inflation is a choice—all Fed chairs chose it, and Warsh will too despite tough talk, because the alternative is politically unacceptable. He reveals the May deficit surged 30% while interest expense jumped 44%, with annual interest payments now hitting $1.6 trillion and will be $2 trillion by next year. Schiff identifies Japan as a looming harbinger with 250% debt-to-GDP, yields climbing above 4%, and the yen collapsing below 160 with potential for another 30-50% decline. His end game thesis: the US dollar loses reserve currency status, US assets get repriced down, and he's positioning to "have all the chips" at the finish line. Gold's pullback from $5,600 to $4,200 is a "buy the rumor, sell the fact" move, while silver at $65 is headed to $200 and Bitcoin at $64,000 should be sold. GDP growth is an illusion created by faulty deflators that understate inflation; the economy hasn't really expanded, just become more expensive, and stagflationary depression is locked in.Thank you to our sponsors: Kalshi - download the Kalshi app and use code JULIA to get $10 when you trade $10. kalshi.com/julia Monetary Metals - learn more at https://www.monetary-metals.com/julia/Links:https://x.com/PeterSchiffhttps://www.youtube.com/@peterschiffTimestamps: 0:00 Intro and welcome Peter Schiff 00:50 Air coming out of bubble 1:16 Markets too complacent on inflation risks1:45 Warsh has a problem - Hike or no hike, both bad3:36 Inflation is a choice - All Fed chairs chose it5:11 Warsh will choose inflation despite tough talk5:24 Bond market breakdown coming - 10-year to 5%, 30-year to 5.5-6%7:42 May deficit up 30%, interest expense up 44%8:13 Interest payments $1.6 trillion/year, will be $2 trillion next year9:39 Government spending up 50% since COVID, taxes reduced10:57 Inflation is hidden tax - Government prefers it11:52 Iran war costs through inflation, not direct taxation13:49 Wealth tax - Slippery slope, will hit middle class eventually19:56 Japan crisis - Debt to GDP 250%, yen collapsing below 16020:29 Japanese bond yields at 4% on 30-year, rising fast21:45 Japan could sell $1 trillion in US treasuries24:41 Japan harbinger for US crisis24:54 Treasury Secretary Paulson says crisis inevitable27:18 Gold warning sign - Pullback to $4,200 from $5,600 normal29:24 Silver at $65, headed to $20032:39 Stock market at highs but economy worse than Biden36:56 GDP illusion - Deflator too low, just prices not growth39:48 End game - Dollar won't be reserve currency40:40 Playing for end game, wants all chips at finish43:31 Contrarian predictions - Higher rates, higher oil, higher gold44:30 Japan crisis first domino, then dollar next45:01 Summary - Stagflation and end game thesis

George Bory, chief investment strategist for fixed income at Allspring Global Investments, says the market is "overshooting" in expecting considerable rate hikes soon. He thinks the central bank will be patient, and that the Kevin Warsh regime got off to its intended start last week by giving less guidance and accepting more volatility as a result. He suggests that investors should look to capture the current "uncertainty premium" that has been created by a wide dispersion of opinion — with some major players expecting rate hikes while others are calling for renewed cuts — and that will boost intermediate-term yields at least until the rate picture becomes clearer. Tom McClellan, editor of The McClellan Market Report, says that the McClellan Oscillator — the indicator created by the family firm to measure market breadth — "is seeing dead nothing," hovering around the neutral level, suggesting that the market "is in pretty much of a doldrums." He expects to see a seasonal summer decline, especially in a midterm election year, but it's not happening yet, which is why McClellan says there's not likely to be much trend until late October. He sees "a boring market" for the rest of the year but expects 2027 to be strongly positive, barring mistakes from the Federal Reserve. Author Igor Pejic discusses his new book, "Tech Money: A Guide to the New Game of Technology Investing," out today, noting the places where technology investing has changed and how different current times are from the last technology wave, the Internet boom, that drove the market into bubble times.

Chris Whalen is back for The Wrap after his fishing trip in Maine, where he caught a 21-inch smallmouth bass! He's very positive on Kevin Warsh's "less is more" approach at the Fed—no forward guidance, likely removing the dot plot, and refocusing on letting the numbers speak for themselves rather than trying to control expectations through communication. Whalen argues the bond market has already delivered a rate hike on its own, and if he were Warsh, he'd wait and see how the Iran peace deal holds before making more moves, given that war inflation is transitory and external to Fed policy. He reveals the definition of inflation will likely be narrowed to minimize rate hikes and avoid tanking the economy, and he's watching a massive rebalancing from equities to bonds at record allocation levels. Whalen sold most of his AI stocks and locked in serious gains, but he's holding SpaceX as a long-term play given Elon's monopolies on space launch and global internet. He warns the AI bubble is going south with Mike Saylor and Bitcoin spiraling, sees gold and silver as a great entry point after being beaten down, and is adding to positions. He explains silver's manufacturing and technology demand while copper faces supply constraints. On Iran, Whalen argues the MOU doesn't solve underlying inflation drivers—diesel, fertilizer, energy ripple through the economy—so double-digit inflation is locked in with no Fed rate cuts coming. He's concerned about private credit festering with two-and-twenty fees still common, distressed debt exchanges now over 70% of defaults since 2022, and he likes Annaly as a mortgage REIT with government-insured assets and mortgage servicing rights providing protection. Whalen notes precious metals could still rise despite rate hikes because central banks will keep accumulating gold as reserve assets. Links:    The Institutional Risk Analyst: https://www.theinstitutionalriskanalyst.com/  The Wrap: https://www.theinstitutionalriskanalyst.com/post/theira858Inflated book (2nd edition): https://www.barnesandnoble.com/w/inflated-r-christopher-whalen/1146303673Twitter/X: https://twitter.com/rcwhalen    Use the code TheWrap2026 for 25% off your first year of The Institutional Risk Analyst https://www.theinstitutionalriskanalyst.com/plans-pricingTimestamps:0:00 Intro and welcome back Chris Whalen1:47 Warsh sets different tone - No forward guidance, likely no dot plots3:33 Less is more approach - Fed was communicating too much5:43 Bond market has already done the rate hike6:50 War inflation is transitory - External factor Fed can't control7:19 Definition of inflation will be adjusted/narrowed9:10 Bond market doing tightening, not Fed funds rate10:34 Rebalancing from equities to bonds at record levels11:50 Sold most AI stocks, took profits, holding SpaceX12:07 SpaceX monopoly on space/internet - Long term play13:57 AI trade, Bitcoin15:57 Gold/silver beaten up but good entry, adding positions17:02 Silver manufacturing and technology demand17:49 Copper supply/demand - Not enough copper globally19:32 Iran MOU doesn't solve underlying issues21:45 Double-digit inflation locked in - Diesel, fertilizer ripple22:34 Fed can't fix war-driven inflation23:52 No rate cuts coming - Business banking on cuts won't get them24:48 Private credit festering problem - Two and twenty fees26:16 Distressed debt exchanges over 70% of defaults29:27 Annaly - Mortgage REIT with government insured assets30:00 Precious metals could rise despite rate hikes - Central banks buying31:43 Precious metals dollar strength question32:07 Next week

A wildfire is threatening the town of Lytton, B.C. Sixty homes were evacuated Friday, and conditions ideal for a fire to grow quickly. The community is still trying to recover from a fast moving wildfire that roared through the village five years ago that left much of the community destroyed.Also: Tensions between Iran and the U.S. over the Strait of Hormuz are threatening to derail an interim deal to end the fighting. Both sides are making conflicting claims about the status of the strategic waterway. Iran says it's closed the strait because of Israeli strikes in Lebanon that killed at least 20 people. But talks to formalize the deal appear to be going ahead.And: Almost three decades ago, a plane carrying medical supplies crashed onto the sea ice at Davis Inlet, an Island off the northeast coast of Labrador. The young pilot lost his life. But out of that tragedy, a bond was born — connecting two communities and enduring to this day.Plus: Colombia's election, Demonstrations in support of CUSMA, Kenyans embracing bitcoin, and more.

SpaceX stock dropped sharply this week, shedding roughly $620 billion in market value over two sessions as the post-IPO rally finally broke. SPCX fell 8.3% combined on June 17 and June 18, closing at $178.50, down from its June 16 peak of $225.64. That's a 20% drop in two days, the first sustained decline since SpaceX went public on June 12 at $135 per share in the largest IPO in history.This episode breaks down why SpaceX stock is dropping, what triggered the SPCX selloff, and what comes next for the most hyped IPO of 2026. The fall hit despite Moody's, Fitch, and S&P all assigning SpaceX investment-grade credit ratings on the same Thursday the stock dropped nearly 4%. The paradox is the story.Four triggers drove the SpaceX stock drop. First, the $60 billion all-stock acquisition of Cursor, announced June 16, signaled immediate dilution to anyone who bought SPCX on the open market. Second, a planned $20 billion bond offering raised an obvious question after SpaceX had just pulled in $75 billion from the IPO and committed $60 billion to Cursor: how much capital does this company actually need? Third, SPCX options started trading on June 17, giving short sellers a practical way to bet against the stock for the first time. Nearly 1 million call contracts traded on day one, putting SPCX among the busiest options names on Wall Street. Fourth, the fundamentals caught up. SpaceX posted a $4.28 billion net loss in Q1 2026, wider than the $528 million loss in the year-ago quarter, with xAI alone accounting for $2.5 billion of the operating charge.The float math is part of the volatility story. Only 4-5% of SpaceX shares are in the public float. Roughly 95% are locked up at IPO. Selling windows open in late July 2026, the standard lockup lapses in December 2026, and Musk's stake unlocks in June 2027. With limited liquidity, small flows move the SPCX stock price hard in both directions. The Gary Black "meme stock" critique landed because retail investors bought roughly the same amount of SPCX in three sessions as they bought Nvidia, Google, Amazon, Microsoft, Meta, QQQ, and SPY combined, according to Vanda Research.The broader picture matters for SPCX shareholders. SpaceX still trades at a $2.4 trillion market cap, the sixth-largest US company by value. The stock ended its first week as a public company 37% above its IPO price. But the xAI subsidiary that justifies a chunk of the trillion-dollar valuation is bleeding cash: $6.36 billion in 2025 operating losses on $12.7 billion in capex, and every one of xAI's 11 original co-founders had departed before the IPO. Musk himself said publicly in March 2026 that xAI "was not built right first time around."We also cover the other space-sector moves this week. Planet Labs (PL) dropped sharply after an earnings report showed margin pressure and near-term losses despite a record backlog, raising questions about whether satellite-data businesses can scale profitably. Intuitive Machines (LUNR) expanded its NASA partnership and shifted toward recurring lunar infrastructure revenue, a model that could de-risk a sector full of one-shot government contracts.We cover what the SpaceX stock drop means for retail SPCX holders, why the Cursor acquisition and bond offering hit confidence on the same week, what the lockup calendar through 2027 means for sustained selling pressure, and whether the post-IPO selloff is a healthy reset or the start of a bigger correction.Keywords: SpaceX stock drop, SPCX stock, SpaceX IPO, Elon Musk, $225 to $178, SPCX selloff, Cursor acquisition, SpaceX bond offering, xAI losses, Planet Labs PL stock, Intuitive Machines LUNR, AI bubble, Magnificent Seven, meme stock, SpaceX lockup, retail investors.

In this episode of Crazy Wisdom, Stewart Alsop sits down with Akin Kadioglu, cofounder of Bondi Finance, to unpack the wild world of tokenized corporate bonds and what it actually takes to bring traditional finance onto the blockchain. They trace the regulatory maze from Bermuda's segregated accounts structure to the global competition between nation states racing to build the best tokenization frameworks, then widen the lens to cover the Genius Act and stablecoin politics, why America's biggest companies have stopped going public, the techno feudalism reshaping Silicon Valley, China's strategy of copying and scaling rather than innovating, and a deep dive into emerging market bonds, default risk, and why countries like Turkey, Mexico, and Indonesia might be more investable than people assume.

Akin argues that nation states resist giving tokenized assets the same ownership rights as traditional securities because they're hesitant to cede authority to neutral blockchains, even when the underlying infrastructure already works.The Genius Act protected banks more than it empowered crypto. By separating yield bearing stablecoins from non yield bearing ones, regulators effectively let banks keep customers from earning interest outside traditional savings accounts, a quiet but consequential win for legacy finance.America's biggest companies are opting out of public markets. Stripe, Anthropic, OpenAI, and SpaceX have stayed private far longer than past generations of breakout companies, raising real questions about whether venture capital has replaced the public markets that once defined American finance.Silicon Valley's elite increasingly resemble a modern clergy. Akin frames the founders and labs that gatekeep advanced AI knowledge as inheritors of a medieval power structure, where access to "secret knowledge" converts directly into capital and influence over everyone else.China wins by scaling, not innovating. Rather than leading at the frontier, China consistently lets American labs take the first step, then copies and mass produces at a fraction of the cost, a strategy Akin sees playing out in everything from manufacturing to AI models.Not all bonds carry the same kind of risk. Akin draws a sharp distinction between bonds with zero tail risk, like US treasuries denominated in their own currency, and corporate or foreign currency sovereign bonds, where default is always possible no matter how strong the issuer looks.Emerging market ratings can be misleading. A BB rated company in an emerging market may have a lower default rate than a BBB rated US company, since emerging market firms typically need far more financial maturity just to access public bond markets in the first place.

On Thursday, June 18, David Bahnsen recapped a strong market day led by the Nasdaq (up nearly 500 points, just under 2%), with the S&P 500 up just over 1% and the Dow up 72 points. Technology, consumer discretionary, and communication services led, while energy, financials, healthcare, and consumer staples lagged. He highlighted SpaceX's roughly $2.5 trillion market cap (down from nearly $3 trillion days earlier after a 17–18% drop) and contrasted it with Amazon and Microsoft profitability versus SpaceX's $19 billion in sales and a $9 billion loss. Economic data showed initial jobless claims at 226,000 (four-week average 223,000).

He is also the Founder of The Market Sniper.Stemming from his over 30 years of experience and deep immersion in trading and technical analysis of various markets, this unique approach to trading is the culmination of everything he found to have been valuable and profitable on a consistent, reliable basis, distilled into a single all-encompassing trading system that can easily be learned and internalized by others.Francis Hunt made his first investments in 1987 pre-crash and bought his first option in 1991 and has been trading equities and other assets since.

Slightly later than billed, our latest episode sees a welcome return to Soundtacking to the utterly charming Finneas O'Connell, who joins us to discuss his score for Beef 2. We've already spoken to Sonny Lee, creator and showrunner of the hugely acclaimed and successful Netflix show, so please do listen to that if you haven't already. But it's always such a joy to take a deep musical dive with Finneas, who speaks so eloquently about his craft. We get into Bond and Barbie too!

In this episode, we feature a brand-new deposition-related ruling that continues to build on the post-COVID pandemic rulings holding that in-person depositions remain the default and that parties seeking to force a remote-video deposition must satisfy the formidable good-cause burden. It's a great decision for your research bank, as are the others we've provided in the show notes below.And here's a bulletin for you. As Jim explains here, research in the field of behavioral psychology shows us there's a powerful psychological reason for insisting that your deponent appear in person - and it isn't that you can personally gauge their demeanor.

In today's special episode, I'm joined by veteran bond trader William Addiss to break down the first official FOMC announcement under new Fed Chairman Kevin Warsh.

The early modern period was a rocky time for religion across Europe, fundamental pinnings of everyday life were being questioned and changing, as the reformation shifted authority away from the church. Thoughts on death and the afterlife were turned upside down, and in villages across England, restless spirits were making a comeback. To confront these supernatural intruders, communities turned to their local clergy to carry out the practice of ghost-laying, an exorcism ritual that sought to bind and banish the dead. At least, that's what Victorian authors would have liked to believe. Part religion, part folklore, and part fear, the subject of ghost-laying is fairly well complicated, and defining just how much of it is actually true, even more so. SOURCES Walsh, Brendan C.

Hate to be the bearer of bad news, but all three economists we asked say gas prices are due for another hike this summer. The war in Iran continues to drain oil reserves in the U.S. and abroad, and eventually prices will have to match growing supply-demand tension. (Yes, that's even if the war ends today.) Also in this episode: Bond investors expect inflation to stick around for a while, a trio of upcoming IPOs will barely put a dent in total market cap, and Kansas City short-term rental demand disappoints as World Cup kicks off.Every story has an economic angle.

If you've ever stared out into your backyard and thought, "You know what this place needs? A lazy river, a Japanese meditation garden, a Batcave, and a giant statue of Reba McEntire with questionable design choices," congratulations—you think exactly like The Rizzuto Show.On today's daily comedy show, the gang goes all-in on designing their ultimate fantasy backyards. Moon dreams of peaceful creeks, multiple fire pits, pools maintained by somebody else, and enough room for dogs to roam free. Lern builds a bluff-top paradise complete with waterfalls, outdoor movie screens, retro hot tubs, and a luxury catio because apparently the cats deserve vacation property too. Rafe creates a property that somehow combines Jurassic Park, Feudal Japan, Batman, and a corn maze. Scott turns his backyard into a beach resort, transportation museum, BMX park, and cow sanctuary. And Rizz? Let's just say his backyard includes holographic dragons, robotic guard dogs, stealth drones, concert-grade sound systems, and enough security measures to make a Bond villain blush.As if that wasn't ridiculous enough, the conversation takes a sharp turn into nightmare fuel when invasive hammerhead worms are reportedly spotted in South County. These creepy little monsters can regenerate if chopped up, secrete toxins, and apparently look like something that escaped from an alien science experiment. Naturally, the gang responds with the appropriate level of panic, sarcasm, and confusion.Then there's the mysterious gas pump screw scam. Is it real? Is it fake? Did the internet invent another thing for us to worry about? The crew investigates, debates, and slowly realizes that maybe not every viral warning deserves immediate panic. Still, check your gas pump...or don't. We're not lawyers.The show also dives into one of the wildest local stories you'll hear this year: a superintendent hired by a Missouri school district who never worked a single day but still walked away with roughly a quarter-million dollars. It's the kind of story that makes every employed person immediately reconsider their career choices.Plus: secret bunker stories, hidden rooms behind bookshelves, locker memories, school bathroom mirror controversies, trampoline debates, old-school pranks, and a glimpse into the absurdly expensive world of Silicon Valley luxury escorts because apparently that's where the conversation ended up.It's another completely normal day on The Rizzuto Show. Which means absolutely none of it is normal.If you're looking for a daily comedy show packed with hilarious conversations, weird news, local stories, and the kind of chaos that only happens when six friends are handed microphones, you're in the right place.Thanks for making The Rizzuto Show part of your daily comedy show routine.Follow The Rizzuto Show → https://linktr.ee/rizzshow for more from your favorite daily comedy show.Connect with The Rizzuto Show Comedy Podcast online → https://1057thepoint.com/RizzShow.Hear The Rizz Show daily on the radio at 105.7 The Point | Hubbard Radio in St. Louis, MO.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.
