Andy Stumpf is a retired Navy SEAL, world-record-holding wingsuit BASE jumper, martial artist, and author. We discuss the mental framework and moment-to-moment decision-making process that can allow anyone to build discipline and resilience and better navigate both everyday life and life's most challenging moments. Andy explains several simple-yet-powerful tools gleaned from his time in — and after — his SEAL career that can help you determine where to focus your actions and how to clear your mind of things you can't control or that hold you back mentally. Andy also shares and reflects on lessons learned from some of the deeply personal challenges he faced outside of combat and freefall. Finally, we explore the all-too-frequent tragedy of people — including high performers — taking their own lives, and consider what might be done to prevent more such losses.

//The Wire//2300Z June 12, 2026// //ROUTINE// //BLUF: BELFAST RIOTS CONTINUE. MASS SHOOTING REPORTED IN TEXAS. RHETORIC AND DIPLOMATIC TENSIONS REMAIN AS TALK OF POTENTIAL SETTLEMENT CONTINUES REGARDING WAR IN MIDDLE EAST.// -----BEGIN TEARLINE------International Events-Middle East: Last night, Iranian state media released some details of the alleged Memorandum of Understanding which is allegedly being considered by Iran and the United States. 40 minutes after the opening bell on Wall Street this morning, President Trump announced on social media that the terms of the alleged Memorandum of Understanding as leaked by the Iranians are not what has been discussed privately. No details were provided on what items were disputed.Scotland: Yesterday, Ilia Belov and Nadjedzha Belov were both convicted of "threatening or abusing behavior" toward four girls who were at the center of a major scandal last year. As it turns out, the initial claims made by the legendary Hatchet-Girl were true; this brother-sister team were attempting to target the girls, and when they resisted being attacked, the Belov family called the police and complained of racism. This prompted the now-viral video recording by which the girls defended themselves with knives and hatchets. This court case confirmed that the girls were telling the truth about being assaulted, as CCTV footage which exonerated them was initially ignored by Police Scotland, but was uncovered during the trial.-HomeFront-Texas: This afternoon an active shooter incident was reported in Midland after unknown circumstances resulted in a protracted firefight on West Wall Street. Local authorities first announced the situation as a barricaded shooter incident, as an individual began firing at passersby from a structure near an old veterinary clinic. Around a dozen people were wounded in some manner during shooting, and the shooter was killed at the scene. The suspect has been identified as Victor Mata Villarreal.Analyst Comment: The circumstances of this shooting are sketchy at best. The area is not a crowded venue that is the normal target for mass shooters, and the exact location of the shooting has not yet been disclosed. It's possible that the shooter was concealed in a fighting position inside the abandoned veterinary clinic, and was shooting at passing cars on the highway, however this is pure speculation based on the geolocation of videos taken at the scene. Some reports claim that Villarreal was a Mexican national with a visa-overstay, but this is not confirmed at this time.-----END TEARLINE-----Analyst Comments: In the Middle East, rhetoric on all sides has continued overnight, and parsing all of the latest developments is challenging due to many contradictions flying around. As of this report, some sort of Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) is allegedly ready to be signed on Sunday. This MOU is reportedly not a peace deal, but a formalization of the ceasefire that was supposed to be implemented this entire time. These types of documents are fairly standard in the world of diplomacy as it's generally a waste of time to send diplomats around the world to engage in talks, if neither side is at least in the ballpark when it comes to what they might accept. An MOU being signed is a step toward peace, but it's not a peace deal itself. So far, the United States has not been entirely forthcoming regarding the details, but as of early this morning, President Trump has refuted the plan that the Iranians have leaked. However, in the absence of any clarification or details of the plan being disclosed, we have to go off of what the Iranians are claiming for now. The grand question remains...what's on the table for negotiations? First and foremost, the alleged MOU results in a 60-day extension of the alleged ceasefire, which is a period of time that will be used to work toward a final deal.Mostly, the MOU includes the 14-point plan that is very similar to what's already been discussed. The nuclear issue is allegedly not being addressed in this memorandum and Iran's missile program is completely off the table altogether. The Iranians would open the Strait, but retain control of it. Funds that have been frozen by the United States would be released to the Iranians, and the status of the long-standing array of sanctions would be worked out during the 60-day extension period. As far as what the United States will get in return, it does not seem like much, which is probably why President Trump denied the details of this leak this morning. The Strait of Hormuz being opened to allow American and other western-aligned vessels through would be the only real bone for the United States, but there is also talk of including some of the "magic dirt" (allegedly radioactive debris from the Midnight Hammer strikes), though this has not been clarified as of yet. It's almost certain that the neither the U.S. nor Israel would accept this deal as it stands, but until the US reveals what they claim their terms are, all of the rhetoric of the past few days leaves the situation exactly as it's been for months.Analyst: S2A1 Research: https://publish.obsidian.md/s2underground Disclaimer: No LLMs were used in the writing of this report. //END REPORT//

Peter Murrell’s case is a major political scandal because it involves top leadership, undermines trust in a governing party, exposes weaknesses in financial oversight. A political operative’s yearslong scheme to embezzle party funds has become a source of anger and embarrassment in Scotland, but not entirely for the reasons you might think. Short answer, No. Don’t leave it running at your normal cool temperature all day. But also don’t always shut it completely off either. The best strategy is a middle ground approach: Turn it off or turn it up when you’re away. Then cool the house before you get back.

Today, we have the great pleasure of speaking with Cleo Battle, the President and CEO of Louisville Tourism and the new Chair of the International Board of MPI! Cleo is an amazing person! He joins us today to share his inspiring journey and dive into what matters most for tourism and why every seat counts. We hope you enjoy listening to today's captivating conversation with Cleo Battle! Cleo Battle Biography: Cleo Battle, a hospitality industry veteran of nearly 35 years, currently serves as President & CEO of Louisville Tourism. Before coming to Louisville, he spent 12 years as Vice President of Sales & Services of the Richmond Convention & Visitors Bureau in Richmond, VA. He held the positions of Director of Sales and Sales Manager at the Richmond CVB. Battle began his hospitality career in the hotel industry by working for Embassy Suites, Holiday Inn, and Sheraton Hotels. Battle is a native of Denver and a graduate of Metropolitan State University in Denver with a bachelor's degree in Hotel/Restaurant Management. He earned his Master's of Business Administration in 1997 from Averett University in Virginia. He is both a Certified Destination Management Executive (CDME) and Certified Association Sales Executive (CASE). Battle's most recent industry recognition includes the Events Industry Council 2020 Social Impact award winner, Business First Louisville's inaugural Power 50 as well as The Courier-Journal's 12 People to Watch in 2021. Battle currently serves on the Meeting Planners International Board of Directors, the Kentucky Derby Museum Board of Directors, the Louisville Sports Commission Executive Board, the LRAA Board, the Kentucky State Fair Board, the Louisville Zoo Foundation Board, the Funds for the Arts Board, and the Board of the Northeast YMCA of Louisville. He is the Past Chair of Destination & Travel Foundation, Destination International Sales & Services Committee, and the Virginia State University Hospitality Department Advisory Board. Cleo's journey Cleo was a college track-and-field athlete. In his third year, he tore a leg muscle. He was still undecided about what he would major in at the time. So he spoke to a school counselor, and she suggested hotel restaurant management. He signed up for the course, started taking classes, and began working as an intern in a hotel. Hotel work came naturally to him, and he worked in many different positions. Then he got hired into the management training program for Promise Hotels, and his career took off! How athletics set Cleo up for success Learning how to run hurdles gave Cleo adaptability and flexibility. He also learned many other skills from athletics that he needed to grow and become successful in his career. A strong team Cleo truly understands the importance of having a strong team! He learned that you cannot do everything by yourself in business and that you are only as good as the people around you. His old boss from Richmond, Virginia, taught him that the key to any successful endeavor lies in hiring well. He used to tell Cleo to hire well, provide good resources, and then get the hell out of the way!  Trust Trust is an essential ingredient for teamwork. People do much better when they work in a professional space where constructive criticism is valued, they can be honest about their thoughts, and they know that their opinions will be respected, regardless of what the leaders ultimately decide. Every seat matters At staff meetings, Cleo always tells his organization's members that every seat matters. He wants them to understand that regardless of whether they are the Director of Sales, a marketing manager, or an administrative assistant, their seat in the organization still matters! Enabling people Whenever there is new subject matter, Cleo enables his team by inviting them to share their thoughts and opinions and offer ideas. Cleo's current position Even though his current position as President and CEO of Louisville Tourism involves a lot of legislative work and more talk about politics than about customers, Cleo still feels it is vital to stay true to the core mission of Louisville Tourism and to bring visitors to the community. MPI Since the first of January, Cleo has been the Chair of MPI and serves on the International Board of Directors. He insists that his team has a growth mindset rather than a recovery mindset. The cost of doing business has changed. Since the pandemic, the cost of doing business has changed. So a lot of work has to be done on the industry brand to help those outside it see its value, what is being done, why it is important, and how the industry impacts people's lives. Getting more people to join the industry Cleo points out that hotels, convention centers, museums and attractions, restaurants, and airports cannot work from home. So the industry will need to figure out the right balance between automated and personal services, going forward. He believes the industry must invest in its brand to make more people aware of why it is such an exciting industry to join. Appreciation and acknowledgment Cleo believes that openly acknowledging his staff members and appreciating their work is the best way to encourage them to provide customers with the best service!

Send us Fan MailGeoffrey Cain, author of Steve Jobs in Exile, joins Joe to explore one of the most overlooked chapters in Steve Jobs' life: the twelve years between his fall from Apple and his return to build one of the most influential companies in the world.This episode looks beyond the familiar story of the iPhone, iPod, and Apple's second act to examine the wilderness years that shaped Jobs into the leader we remember today. After being pushed out of Apple in 1985, Jobs was forced to confront failure, ego, rejection, and the limits of vision without discipline. What followed was a long and painful period of experimentation, mistakes, personal transformation, and eventual renewal through NeXT and Pixar.Geoffrey explains why the Steve Jobs who founded Apple was not the same Steve Jobs who returned in 1997. As a young leader, Jobs was brilliant but difficult, convinced of his own vision but often unable to listen to the people around him. At NeXT, that ego led to missed opportunities, broken relationships, and expensive failure. But over time, those same failures began to teach him the lessons he needed most: focus, discipline, humility, execution, and the ability to work within the limits of reality.Joe and Geoffrey also discuss:Why Steve Jobs' time away from Apple was not wasted, but formativeHow NeXT helped lay the foundation for the Apple products we use todayWhy genius without discipline can end in expensive failureHow Jobs' ego hurt NeXT and nearly destroyed his second actWhat Pixar taught Jobs about trust, creative restraint, and letting talented people do their workWhy failure can become the foundation for future successHow the “wilderness years” shape leaders before they return strongerWhy Jobs came back to Apple quieter, more focused, and more willing to listenWhat leaders can learn from Jobs' journey through failure, reinvention, and returnThis episode is for anyone who has ever gone through a hard season and wondered whether it was wasted. It's also for leaders, builders, creatives, and entrepreneurs who want to better understand how failure, if we are willing to learn from it, can become the preparation for our most important work.A special thanks to this week's sponsors!Dunedain Systems is a veteran-founded defense technology company building Warmind, an AI platform that accelerates military planning, operations, and document generation.

Trump is using wartime presidential authority to hand $700 million to coal-fired power plants in the US to prop us what he calls “clean, beautiful coal”, despite it being the dirtiest of fossil fuels. The funds will be used to bring a new coal export terminal online in Oakland, California, and to restart an existing facility in Maryland. That's in addition to plants across 10 states: West Virginia, Kentucky, North Carolina, Indiana, Tennessee, Arkansas, Arizona, Oklahoma, North Dakota and Wisconsin. Trump says "Each of those 10 states voted for Trump, We won them all.” The two new coal plants will be in Alaska and West Virginia.

Why target a beloved institution? Drew Friedman from Federal News Network has been covering the story, and according to her it's more complicated than it looks.  Want some more DC news?

Welcome to The Times of Israel's Daily Briefing, your 20-minute audio update on what's happening in Israel, the Middle East and the Jewish world. Political correspondent Ariela Karmel joins host Jessica Steinberg for today's episode. An overnight Knesset session ended early Tuesday with first readings of a bill that calls for dissolution of the Knesset, as well as of two controversial pieces of legislation that would split and weaken the role of the attorney general, reports Karmel. She puts the latter bills in context of the broader war the government has long waged against the judiciary. A meeting on aid for the Hezbollah-battered north of Israel was tied to a bill by Finance Minister Bezalel Smotrich that would increase tax benefits for West Bank settlements, and Karmel notes that the discussion ended once again without the much-needed financial aid for the north being approved. The aid was finally okayed on Tuesday. Karmel also reviews the harrowing images of far-right lawmakers disrupting a Knesset event on settler violence against Palestinians, with the MKs posting videos of their antics on social media to boost their image with voters. Check out The Times of Israel's ongoing liveblog for more updates.

What a time we live in. We are watching Leftists spiral out of control.If you're hearing my voice, then you haven't died from the Hanta virus or Ebola. I'm curious, are any of you experiencing measles or the whooping cough.There are warnings out there, so be careful.Democrats tried hard with all these pathogens they introduced, again. But we're not nearly as afraid as we once were.Interestingly, when I travel, I still see LOTS of people with masks. Understand that the veil has been pulled back on the covid and vaccine lies, but a part of the population remains afraid.Their lies are being revealed in real time and I believe it's God's big reveal, and not just fate.We just can't get this lucky.In a completely different subject, why do they call Trump wanting to compensate victims of the Fed, a “slush fund”. But I want to begin with an interesting clip from Bernie Sanders that will offer insight into part of our discussion today.Back in 2019 when Bernie was but a youthful 77 years old, he had this to day about DEI:[X] SB – Bernie Sanders in 2019 re DEIBernie worked in ageism, nicely…Well, we are now in the midst of PRIDE month. A creation of the LGBTQ community who has been in the news since FOREVER. And it's not good news.I can't imagine how most gay people feel about Pride Month these days, but I suspect it's a lot like how I feel about Black History Month.What began as recognition somehow became branding. What started as awareness turned into a marketing department's seasonal color palette. Somewhere along the way, actual people got replaced by mascots.A woman named Cynthia Holt recently posted something that caught my attention.

Welcome back to another chaotic edition of True Thirty 30. This week, Joey Dumont and producer Sean X are diving headfirst into the absolute circus of American politics, where the news reads less like C-SPAN and more like a reality TV finale written by a caffeine-addicted raccoon.Here's what's in the blender today:The $1.776 Billion Illusion: We give you an update on that massive $1.776 billion political “slush fund” that got slapped down by Judge Kathleen Williams, all while checking out the frantic scramble to block the IRS from digging into Donald Trump's financial receipts.The Lone Star Showdown: Texas is giving us the ultimate political contrast. On Team Red, we have the Republican nominee, Attorney General Ken Paxton, a man whose resume includes securities fraud, FBI investigations, a historic impeachment trial, a $6.6 million whistleblower payout (courtesy of taxpayers), and a messy divorce. And for Team Blue, we have the Democratic challenger, James Talarico, a 38-year-old former middle school teacher and seminarian whose campaign got a viral turbo-boost thanks to late-night TV drama and some very salty DNC internet comebacks. (And yes, the polls say it's actually a tight race!)The Late-Night Timeline Meltdown: We try to decipher Donald Trump's recent 50-post marathon on Truth Social. Spoiler alert: It's pure, unadulterated digital chaos.The Pentagon's New Dance Craze: Finally, we wrap up with some high-quality military mockery as Secretary of “War” Pete Hegseth tries to show off his physical prowess with a Navy deck drill, but instead gives us a dainty man tiptoeing through the tulips.Grab your popcorn and stay amused; it's going to be a wild ride.

In this UFO news update, I break down a packed few days in the disclosure world.Dylan Borland and Matthew Brown have announced a new whistleblower fund, raising fresh questions about how people coming forward are being supported, and where previous funds have actually gone.Congressman Eric Burlison is continuing to push the private contractor angle, targeting organisations like MITRE, RAND and MIT Lincoln Labs, as the search for UAP records moves beyond the Pentagon and into the grey area between government and private industry.We also look at Lauren Boebert's latest comments on classified briefings, biological beings, portals and the supernatural, plus the New York Times covering the growing conversation around UFOs, religion, demons and how disclosure may be interpreted by different communities.And finally, I cover notes from Lue Elizondo's Persona Non Grata event in Texas, including Burlison's comments on amnesty, deep underground military bases, Jake Barber, Michael Herrera and the upcoming June 9 Capitol Hill event with David Grusch and members of Congress.June could be a huge month for the UFO topic. Is this disclosure gaining momentum, or getting even stranger?

Americans who know Cuba best—those who fled the Communist-ruled island and their descendants—loathe the country's Communist regime, in power since Fidel Castro overthrew an American-backed strongman in 1959. Thanks to Cold War geopolitics and the political influence of those Cuban-American communities (especially those around Miami, home city of Secretary of State Marco Rubio), the United States has maintained strict restrictions on trade and travel to the island, largely on a bipartisan basis. But left-of-center activists often operate as if laws they don't like don't apply to them, and that any infractions will be dismissed with a wink and a nod by their “moderate” allies. And with an aggressive right-of-center government in power, that is increasingly a bad bet, as a number of radical-left activists including podcaster Hasan Piker and CodePink leader Medea Benjamin have reportedly been subpoenaed for information about their participation in the “Nuestra America Convoy” supporting the Communist regime. How much trouble are these leftist agitators potentially in? What are they doing, and who's funding it?

Donald Trump is under fire again after reports reveal millions in National Park revenue may be redirected toward his massive vanity projects — including a controversial reflecting pool, gold-plated statues, and even discussions about putting Trump's face on a new $250 bill. In this video, we break down the growing backlash over government spending, political corruption allegations, and what critics are calling another example of authoritarian-style self-promotion from the Trump movement. We cover the outrage from progressive lawmakers, reactions across social media, and why many Americans believe public lands and taxpayer money should never be used to glorify one political figure. Is this another example of Trump putting himself above the country, or is MAGA culture embracing a new level of political worship?
