    Three years ago, Chris Perkins sat across from Terry Duffy in Congress and made the case for perpetuals. Duffy pushed back — hard. Now Duffy's CME is suing the very regulator that finally allowed them. The CME argues Bitcoin perpetual futures are really swaps and should carry far more collateral. Chris traces the Dodd-Frank history that created the swap-versus-future divide, and Austin Campbell lays out why picking this fight in a post-Chevron court could backfire on the incumbent. Is a perpetual a swap or a future, and who gets to decide?

    In this episode of Hunger for Wholeness, Ilia Delio speaks with scholar Robert Geraci about apocalyptic AI, robotics, transhumanist hope, and the religious stories embedded in technological imagination. Geraci traces how his study of robotics led him to notice strikingly religious themes in the writings of engineers and futurists: immortality, resurrection, salvation, and the future transformation of humanity.Together, Ilia and Robert explore the mid-20th-century roots of computer intelligence, the shadow of world war, and the deep eschatological hopes and fears that shaped early conversations about machines, minds, and human destiny. They consider how figures such as Hans Moravec, Ray Kurzweil, J. B. S. Haldane, Julian Huxley, Norbert Wiener, and Alan Turing reveal the religious imagination at work within technological culture.Later in the episode, the conversation turns toward technology, ecology, and responsibility. Rather than treating technology as the enemy, Ilia and Robert ask how human beings might reclaim the deeper narratives, values, and forms of belonging needed to guide technological development toward the flourishing of the whole Earth community.ABOUT ROBERT GERACIRobert M Geraci is the Knight Distinguished Chair for the Study of Religion & Culture at Knox College.

    The June 22, 2026, Closing Market Report highlights a sharp contrast in global weather patterns and their developing impacts on crop conditions. In the United States, the Corn Belt and Southern growing regions are currently maintaining highly favorable soil moisture levels, setting a strong baseline for development. However, recent heavy rainfall and consecutive weeks of flooding in parts of the Midwest are expected to result in a 1% to 3% downgrade in the upcoming crop conditions report. In stark contrast, Europe is enduring a severe, record-setting heatwave with below-normal rainfall, raising significant moisture stress concerns for summer crops like corn and sunflowers, particularly in France. Meanwhile, South American harvests in Brazil are progressing smoothly with only minor, localized disruptions.Market attention is increasingly shifting toward the upcoming USDA grain stocks and acreage reports. Driven by rapid spring planting speeds and broader financial pressures, agricultural economists project a potential increase in both corn and soybean acres, as farmers frequently favor these traditional crops during tight financial periods. This shifting landscape is further framed by long-term structural changes in Southern U.S. agriculture, which has suffered a disproportionate loss of 32 million harvested acres over the past century. This massive historical decline has led analysts to question whether federal safety nets that heavily favor cotton, peanuts, and rice are inadvertently stifling regional innovation and crop diversification.In livestock and international trade, domestic beef demand continues to outpace expectations and remains robust, even with ongoing headline concerns regarding screwworm in Mexican cattle herds. On the geopolitical stage, Vice President J.D. Vance announced a proposed structural agreement regarding Iran, where any potential unfreezing of Iranian financial assets would require joint U.S. and Qatari oversight and be strictly earmarked for the purchase of American soy, corn, and wheat. While these geopolitical headlines introduce short-term volatility, market experts emphasize that traders must focus on strong domestic crop usage, robust export paces, and baseline supply and demand fundamentals to accurately navigate the marketplace.00:00 The About Southern Agriculture Edition02:02 Ag Markets with Curt Kimmel, AgMarket.net07:35 V.P.

    Bienvenue en 2030 Glorieuses, le podcast pour raconter les mondes de demain ! On nous répète partout que demain est foutu, qu'il est trop tard et que nous n'avons d'autre choix que de limiter les dégâts. À force de l'entendre, nous avons fini par mettre nos rêves en pause pour devenir les simples gestionnaires de notre propre extinction. Pourtant, je reste convaincu d'une chose : l'avenir ne se gère pas, il se rêve. Aujourd'hui, je reçois une femme qui a choisi de ne plus bâtir contre la nature, mais avec elle, et qui transforme nos modes de construire en un véritable outil de réparation du monde. Delphine Mathou est responsable du développement territorial chez Ceebios, le centre d'études et d'expertises qui met la sagesse du vivant au cœur de nos territoires. Delphine nous apprend que la transition ne se résume pas à empiler des technologies ou à réduire superficiellement nos impacts, mais qu'elle commence par un changement radical de modèle : passer de la ville prédatrice à la ville régénérative. Contre le dogme du tout-béton et le piège de l'artificialisation, elle nous invite à utiliser les 3,8 milliards d'années de R&D de la nature pour concevoir nos quartiers comme de véritables écosystèmes. Elle nous rappelle que nos bâtiments ne doivent plus être des boîtes étanches et isolées, mais des organismes vivants capables de purifier l'eau, de réguler le climat et de nous réinsérer enfin dans les grands cycles de la Terre. Ensemble, on va voir comment le biomimétisme et l'urbanisme bio-inspiré peuvent nous guider vers un nouveau modèle de société, et comment le fait de se reconnecter aux génies des autres espèces est l'un des outils les plus puissants pour construire les 2030 Glorieuses. Et pour retrouver notre galaxie utopiste, rendez-vous sur 2030glorieuses.org.

brengen.En: Under a bright summer sun, in a busy community hall in Amsterdam, Sander and Anouk stood in line to cast their votes.Nl: De hal was gevuld met een vrolijke mix van stemmen.En: The hall was filled with a cheerful mix of voices.Nl: Mensen begroetten elkaar met een glimlach terwijl ze de stembiljetten vastpakten.En: People greeted each other with smiles as they picked up the ballots.Nl: Sander keek om zich heen met een vastberaden blik.En: Sander looked around with a determined expression.Nl: "Anouk," zei Sander met overtuiging, "het is echt belangrijk dat we op de milieuvriendelijke kandidaat stemmen.En: "Anouk," Sander said with conviction, "it's really important that we vote for the environmentally friendly candidate.Nl: Er zijn zoveel veranderingen nodig om onze stadsomgeving beter te maken."En: There are so many changes needed to make our urban environment better."Nl: Anouk zuchtte zachtjes, terwijl ze naar de kleurrijke informatiefolders keek die op tafel lagen.En: Anouk sighed softly as she glanced at the colorful informational brochures lying on the table.Nl: "Ik weet het, Sander.En: "I know, Sander.Nl: Maar het gaat niet alleen om het milieu.En: But it's not just about the environment.Nl: We hebben ook goede scholen, veilige straten en cultuur nodig."En: We also need good schools, safe streets, and culture."Nl: Sander knikte.En: Sander nodded.Nl: "Ja, dat is ook belangrijk.En: "Yes, that's important too.Nl: Maar zonder een gezond milieu, wat heeft dat allemaal voor zin?"En: But without a healthy environment, what does it all mean?"Nl: Anouk glimlachte flauw.En: Anouk smiled faintly.Nl: "Je hebt een goed punt, maar ik wil zeker weten dat ik mijn keuze baseer op een breder beeld."En: "You make a good point, but I want to make sure I base my decision on a broader perspective."Nl: Ondertussen kregen anderen hun stembiljetten en vulden ze met zorg in.En: Meanwhile, others received their ballots and filled them out carefully.Nl: De lucht had een levendige energie, en vrienden babbelden zachtjes met elkaar.En: The air had a lively energy, and friends chatted quietly with each other.Nl: Anouk haalde diep adem en besloot de folders te bekijken.En: Anouk took a deep breath and decided to look at the brochures.Nl: Ze luisterde naar de gesprekken om haar heen, terwijl ze de informatie over elke kandidaat las.En: She listened to the conversations around her while reading the information about each candidate.Nl: Ze kon zich voorstellen hoe haar leerlingen moesten bewegen door deze complexe wereld, en dat inspireerde haar om zorgvuldig na te denken over wie hun toekomst het beste zou beschermen.En: She could imagine how her students had to navigate through this complex world, and that inspired her to think carefully about who would best protect their future.Nl: Sander wachtte geduldig en kneep Anouk bemoedigend in haar schouder.En: Sander waited patiently and gave Anouk an encouraging squeeze on her shoulder.Nl: "Je doet goed werk.En: "You're doing great.Nl: Als je vragen hebt, laat het me weten."En: If you have any questions, let me know."Nl: Toen het eindelijk haar beurt was om te stemmen, stopte Anouk even in het stemhokje.En: When it was finally her turn to vote, Anouk paused slightly in the voting booth.Nl: Ze dacht aan de woorden van Sander, maar ook aan de inzichten van anderen die ze die ochtend had gehoord.En: She thought about Sander's words, but also the insights of others she had heard that morning.Nl: Met een vastberaden hand zette ze haar kruisje bij de kandidaat die volgens haar het beste was voor de gemeenschap.En: With a determined hand, she marked her choice for the candidate she believed was best for the community.Nl: Na het stemmen liepen Sander en Anouk samen naar buiten.En: After voting, Sander and Anouk walked outside together.Nl: Hun voetstappen echoden zachtjes op het trottoir.En: Their footsteps echoed softly on the sidewalk.Nl: "Zullen we koffie drinken?"En: "Shall we grab a coffee?"Nl: stelde Sander voor.En: Sander suggested.Nl: Anouk knikte enthousiast.En: Anouk nodded enthusiastically.Nl: "Laten we dat doen.En: "Let's do that.Nl: Ik wil meer weten over hoe we verder kunnen helpen, buiten alleen stemmen."En: I want to know more about how we can help further, beyond just voting."Nl: Terwijl ze verder liepen, besefte Anouk dat ze sterker was dan ze dacht.En: As they walked on, Anouk realized she was stronger than she thought.Nl: Sander glimlachte, dankbaar voor de nieuwe blik die hun discussie had gebracht.En: Sander smiled, grateful for the new perspective their discussion had brought.Nl: Ze begrepen allebei dat verandering begint met een simpel gesprek en de kleine keuzes die elke burger maakt.En: They both understood that change begins with a simple conversation and the small choices every citizen makes.Nl: En zo begonnen ze aan een nieuwe dialoog, hun ogen op de toekomst gericht, geworteld in een gedeelde wens om de plek die ze hun thuis noemden, te verbeteren.En: And so they began a new dialogue, eyes set on the future, rooted in a shared desire to improve the place they called home.

    The June 18, 2026, Commodity Week panel analyzed current agricultural market fundamentals, prioritizing export demand, domestic crop conditions, and macroeconomic shifts. China recently purchased 4.8 million bushels of U.S. soybeans, yet long-term fulfillment of their 25-million-metric-ton commitment remains uncertain pending tariff adjustments and sustained export competition from Brazil. Domestically, the market is bracing for upcoming USDA acreage and grain stocks reports, with analysts anticipating slight increases in soybean acreage and noting discrepancies in feed and residual data driven by heavier cattle slaughter weights. The recent Cattle on Feed report indicated a 102% year-over-year inventory, though overall beef production projections remain inexplicably low according to the panel. Furthermore, U.S. corn crop conditions vary drastically based on planting dates, with early-planted corn thriving while late-planted fields struggle against excessive moisture. Finally, macroeconomic volatility is expected to persist as the new Federal Reserve leadership implements a strictly data-driven policy approach, strengthening the U.S. dollar and emphasizing the need for producers to actively execute pricing orders amidst shifting fundamentals.Panelists - Jim McCormick, AgMarket.net - Garrett Toay, AgTraderTalk.com - Mike Zuzolo, GlobalCommResearch.com ★ Support this podcast ★

    The June 19 Closing Market Report provides a historical overview of the legislative and military milestones that culminated in the abolition of slavery in the United States. The broadcast begins by outlining the Morrill Acts of 1862 and 1890, which established Land Grant Universities and Historically Black Colleges and Universities to expand equitable access to public education. It then details the 1863 Emancipation Proclamation, which strategically shifted the Civil War's primary objective toward ending slavery and authorized the enlistment of Black soldiers, a directive subsequently formalized by General Order 143 to create the U.S. Colored Troops. As the conflict concluded with the Confederate surrender at Appomattox, the Wade-Davis Bill established stringent Reconstruction protocols for readmitting the defeated states to the Union. The timeline concludes with the formal constitutional abolition of slavery through the 13th Amendment and the enforcement of emancipation in Texas via General Order No. 3 on June 19, 1865, the historic event now nationally commemorated as Juneteenth.00:43 The Morrill Acts & HBCUs05:37 The Emancipation Proclamation13:25 General Order 14317:14 Reconstruction and the Wade-Davis Bill19:02 Surrender at Appomattox20:29 The 13th Amendment21:04 June 19, 1865, General Order #3 ★ Support this podcast ★

SpaceX - IPO - Finally! $135 per share - Rose to $160+/- on the debut day - Rather smooth process and very orderly - A total of $85B was raised - due to an add-on additional green-shoe that was allowed ($10B) for institutions. - Rose another $20% on Monday - Retail got about 20% of the deal (down from 30%) Oracle - Oracle Corp. shares declined after the company reported quarterly capital expenses that were higher than estimates, raising investor concerns about the profitability of the AI infrastructure business. - The company expects to spend about $70 billion on net capital expenditures in the current fiscal year, and plans to raise another $40 billion in equity and debt. - Oracle's cloud infrastructure business gained 93% to $5.8 billion, and total cloud revenue is projected to jump about 61% in the quarter ending in August. - The increase of $5B over the course of the year was disconcerting to investors. - Shares dropped the most in over 6 months on the news CPI and PPI - May CPI was mixed but generally cooler on the core reading, with headline CPI up 0.5% month-over-month, matching consensus, while Core CPI rose 0.2%, below the 0.3% consensus and below Briefing's 0.4% estimate. - The softer core CPI reading suggests some easing in underlying consumer inflation pressures, which is the more constructive part of the inflation picture. - May PPI was firmer than expected on the headline reading, with PPI up 1.1% versus 0.7% consensus and 0.8% Briefing estimate, matching the prior month's revised 1.1% pace. - Core PPI rose 0.4%, matching consensus and coming in below the prior month's revised 0.7%, indicating wholesale inflation remained elevated but did not accelerate further on the core measure. - Taken together, the CPI and PPI reports point to a mixed inflation backdrop: consumer-level core inflation looked somewhat better, but producer-level price pressures remained sticky. Cyberdyne - Anthropic announced Claude Fable 5, a Mythos-class model that will be available to its enterprise customers and paid subscribers. - The company unveiled Mythos in April and has limited the rollout because of its advanced cybersecurity capabilities. - Anthropic said Claude Fable 5?s broad release is possible because of new safeguards that block responses in specific high-risk areas. - WAIT! The US government PULLED the plug on Mythos and Fable for any foreign national - From Anthropic - The US government, citing national security authorities, has issued an export control directive to suspend all access to Fable 5 and Mythos 5 by any foreign national, whether inside or outside the United States, including foreign national Anthropic employees. The net effect of this order is that we must abruptly disable Fable 5 and Mythos 5 for all our customers to ensure compliance. Access to all other Anthropic models will not be affected. OpenAi - Confidentially flies for IPO - Sends financials and IPO materials to regulators - making sue all in good order. - This allows the company to iron out accounting, compliance, and regulatory issues in private without triggering a "media circus" or alerting competitors to their financials Last Friday..... - Nonfarm payrolls jumped a seasonally adjusted 172,000 for the period, down slightly from the upwardly revised 179,000 in April and far above the Dow Jones consensus estimate for 80,000. - The unemployment rate held steady at 4.3%, as expected. - Average hourly earnings rose 0.3% for the month and were up 3.4% over the past year, both in line with the Wall Street consensus. Screwworm - The New World screwworm has been detected in a 3-week-old calf in Zavala County, Texas, the first known case of that fly in the United States since 2017. - New World screwworm larvae “burrow into the flesh of living animals, causing serious damage to livestock and economic losses,” the U.S. Department of Agriculture said. - The USDA and Texas officials are taking immediate action to contain and eradicate the pest. - In December, the Food and Drug Administration granted conditional approval to the topical solution Exzolt Cattle-CA1, which is used to prevent and treat New World screwworm infestations and is produced by Merck & Co. - What is going to happen to beef prices?

    There is no alternative. The End of History. Climate Apocalypse. It seems that our contemporary moment is defined by the idea that things can only get worse or, in the most optimistic reading, perhaps stay as they are. Ideas for things getting better, utopian ideas, seem in short supply. It is this which Joe Davidson confronts in his book Saving Utopia: Imagining Hopeful Futures in Dystopian Times (MIT Press, 2026). Davidson links this apparent decline in utopian thinking to a change in ‘time consciousness', the ways in which our sense of the future seems less open to possibility than it once was. Despite this he notes the persistence of utopianism in a new form, the ‘postdystopian utopia' which takes account of the assumption the future will be worse and uses this as a spur to utopian thinking. He then explores how this manifests itself in various utopian works in different traditions, from Black utopianism considering the tragedy of the slave trade, feminism mining the nostalgia of previous battles to consider how things could be different and climate change utopianism confronting catastrophe. In our discussion we explore the changing fortunes and forms of utopianism over time, the value of ‘utopian studies', why Silicon Valley tech-bros might be as utopian (or dystopian) as they make out and think about why it is important we all imagine the possibility of different worlds.

    Welcome to another action-packed edition of The Futures Rundown! On this Fed week and shortened holiday session leading into Juneteenth, host Mark Longo breaks down a fascinating "bifurcated" tape. Is it finally time for the beaten-down assets to mount a comeback? We deep dive into a week dubbed the "Revenge of the Losers" as some of the year's biggest underperformers find their footing. Plus, we break down the latest interest rate decision from the Federal Reserve, massive volume spikes in equity micros, and the energy market wipeout. In this episode, we cover: The Trading Pit: Weekly upside movers including Silver, Palladium, Cocoa, Coffee, and a surprising rally in Ether (ETH) futures. The Energy annihilation: What's driving the massive downside in WTI, Brent crude, RBOB, and heating oil amidst Middle East detente rumors. Fed Day Reality Check: How the markets reacted to the Fed holding rates steady under the new Fed governor, and why volume suddenly went wild in the second half of the session. Volume Leaders: A look at the massive paper moving through Nasdaq Micros, 10-Year notes, and the E-mini. Year-to-Date Movers & Shakers: Checking in on the biggest winners (spoiler: nonfat dry milk is still king) and the cellar-dwellers of 2026.

    Market Overview and Commodity TrendsThe June 17, 2026, broadcast of the Closing Market Report, hosted by Todd Gleason, provides a comprehensive update on agricultural markets, policy news, and global weather conditions. In the commodities segment, Greg Johnson of Total Grain Marketing details a recent market sell-off driven by favorable Midwest weather, expectations of higher planted acreage, and declining oil prices linked to a Middle East memorandum of understanding (MOU). This combination of factors has prompted investment funds to liquidate their long positions in corn and pare back on soybeans. Johnson advises farmers to adjust their pricing expectations, noting that a significant rally would require a major weather event later in the summer or a return of Chinese soybean purchases.Agricultural Policy and Global FinanceThe program also covers recent geopolitical and agricultural news, highlighting President Donald Trump's cautious public remarks regarding the finalization of the Middle East MOU, despite White House officials confirming its digital signing. Domestically, the broadcast outlines a legislative push in the Senate to permanently lift summertime restrictions on E-15 ethanol and reports on a growing New World screwworm outbreak threatening livestock in Texas. On the financial front, the US Farm Credit System remains stable despite broader economic challenges, presenting a stark contrast to Brazil, where lower grain prices and high interest rates are driving a surge in farm bankruptcies and loan defaults.Global Weather ImpactsMeteorologist Drew Lerner from World Weather, Inc. concludes the report with a global agricultural weather outlook. In the United States, unusually cool temperatures and excessive moisture are slowing crop development across the Midwest and Northern Plains, though warmer weather is expected by July. In Europe, a severe heatwave and prolonged dry spell are heavily stressing winter crops, particularly in France. Looking toward Asia, a strengthening El Niño is forecast to bring significant dryness to Indonesia, Malaysia, and the Philippines later in the year, while simultaneously causing excessive, crop-damaging rainfall across the rice and sugarcane regions of southern China.01:18 Ag Markets with Greg Johnson, Total Grain Marketing09:12 President Trump Hedges on MOU Signing15:16 Ag Weather with Drew Lerner, World Weather, Inc. ★ Support this podcast ★
