Amy welcomes in Angela Quintana for a “McBee day,” share quick Bravo news about Boz's traditional Ghanaian wedding and Danielle from Summer House bringing her premature baby boy home after 63 days in the NICU, then discuss perimenopause struggles and a neck fan that helps with hot flashes. They also follow the Lindsey Clancy trial, hoping for a not-guilty-by-reason-of-insanity verdict and advocating for postpartum psychosis to be recognized in the DSM. The episode's main focus is a recap of the McBee Dynasty season finale: the brothers' plan to sell the car washes to cover massive debt, tensions with CFO Galyna, and skepticism about a staged-looking truck-window smashing scene. They later look up updates suggesting the car washes weren't sold and Cole didn't lose his house, questioning how real the show's cliffhanger was.This episode is sponsored by:OAK ESSENTIALS Luminous Body Lotionhttps://oakessentials.comBUBS NATURALS COLLAGEN AND PEPTIDESLive Better Longer with BUBS Naturals.

Your business can look successful on the outside while your financial systems are quietly working against you. In this episode, I sit down with my dear friend and financial strategist Gala McCray to talk about why the way we manage our numbers has so much more to do with leadership than we might realize.  We explore what happens when outdated systems drain our time and energy, how our financial records can reveal what is really happening beneath the surface of our businesses, and why avoiding our books can mean missing important opportunities. Gala also shares why there is no shame in falling behind and how having the right support can help us move forward instead of getting stuck in guilt and overwhelm. Topics covered in this episode include: Why your financial system is never as neutral as it may seem The clues your numbers might be giving you about how you're really doing What outdated systems could be costing you beyond money   Show notes available at www.leadinglady-coaching.com/podcast   Resources Mentioned:  Join the Hub to gain access to Gala's "Financial Focus" every month, plus TONS of other resources! https://loom.ly/bpErIic  Have you joined the Leading Ladies Facebook Group yet?!

Ján 9,13-23 13Toho predtým slepého zaviedli k farizejom. 14Ale v ten deň, keď Ježiš urobil blato a otvoril mu oči, bola sobota. 15Preto sa ho aj farizeji opýtali, ako začal vidieť. Povedal im: „Priložil mi na oči blato, umyl som sa a vidím.“ 16Tu niektorí z farizejov povedali: „Ten človek nie je z Boha, lebo nezachováva sobotu.“ Iní však hovorili: „Ako môže hriešny človek robiť takéto znamenia?“ A vznikla medzi nimi roztržka. 17Opýtali sa teda znova toho slepého: „Čo hovoríš o ňom ty? Veď tebe otvoril oči!“ A on odpovedal: „Je prorok!“ 18Židia však neverili, že bol slepý a že začal vidieť, kým si nezavolali jeho rodičov. 19Opýtali sa ich: „Je toto ten váš syn, o ktorom hovoríte, že sa narodil slepý? Ako to, že teraz vidí?“ 20Jeho rodičia odpovedali: „Vieme, že toto je náš syn a že sa narodil slepý. 21Ale nevieme, ako to, že teraz vidí, a nevieme ani to, kto mu otvoril oči. Jeho sa opýtajte. Má svoje roky, sám bude hovoriť o sebe.“ 22Rodičia tak hovorili preto, lebo sa báli Židov. Židia sa totiž už dohodli, že každého, kto by ho vyznával ako Mesiáša, vylúčia zo synagógy. 23Preto rodičia uzdraveného povedali: „Má svoje roky, jeho sa opýtajte!“ Tento muž bol celý život slepý. Predstavme si, že zrazu vidí! Mohli by sme čakať, že to prinesie radosť a oslavu z toho, ako Ježiš konal. Namiesto toho tento človek čelí výsluchu, podozreniu a nedôvere. Farizeji a zákonníci hľadajú problém, lebo uzdravenie sa stalo v sobotu. A dokonca aj jeho rodičia sa boja vyznať, že uzdravenie prišlo od Ježiša. Hovoria: „Má svoje roky, sám bude hovoriť o sebe“. A my? My by sme svoje deti chceli obhajovať, chceli by sme za ne aj dýchať. Pripočítať im našu vieru a všemožne ospravedlniť ich ľahostajné správanie. Alebo naopak bojíme sa upozorniť a postaviť sa za pravdu. Mlčíme, aby sme si nepokazili vzťahy, aby sme „nerozvírili vody“. Muž, ktorý bol slepý, sa nebojí. Povie jednoducho: „Bol som slepý a teraz vidím.“ To je svedectvo! Nie učené reči, ale osobná skúsenosť s Bohom. Aj nás Pán volá, aby sme boli svedkami toho, čo sme zažili s Kristom. Nie cez dokonalé slová, ani cez rodičov, ale cez odvahu hovoriť, čo pre nás Ježiš osobne urobil. Lebo to je viera. Svet to možno nebude chápať, ale pravda Evanjelia zostáva – mocná, živá a oslobodzujúca. A nezabúdajme, že potom bude každý sám za seba stáť pred Pánom! Sám za seba! Modlitba: Bože, ďakujeme Ti za moc, ktorú si preukázal na zázrakoch Pána Ježiša! Odpusť, že jej príliš málo dôverujeme! Daj nám precítiť bázeň pred Tebou a pochopiť Tvoju lásku a moc, ktoré nám pomáhajú! Amen. Pieseň: ES 444 Autor: Viera Šimová Šoltés Ako sa otec zmilúva nad synmi, tak sa Hospodin zmilúva nad tými, čo sa Ho boja. Žalm 103,13 Keď ste synmi, poslal nám Boh do sŕdc Ducha Svojho Syna, ktorý volá: „Abba, Otče.“ Galaťanom 4,6 Ján 4,19-26 •  Modlíme sa za: Záriečie (TuS) Otázky na rozjímanie: Som ochotný/á jednoducho a pravdivo svedčiť o tom, čo Ježiš urobil v mojom živote? Kedy zo strachu radšej mlčím, hoci by som sa mal/a postaviť za pravdu? Dôverujem Božiemu pôsobeniu aj vtedy, keď ho druhí spochybňujú alebo nechápu? Aplikácia do života: Dnes si premysli jednu konkrétnu vec, ktorú Ježiš v tvojom živote zmenil, a poďakuj Mu za ňu. Ak sa naskytne vhodná príležitosť, povedz o tejto skúsenosti pokojne a pravdivo niekomu blízkemu. Dnes som vďačný za tieto 3 veci: _________________________________ _________________________________ _________________________________ Viac o vďačnosti, čo to je, prečo je dôležité byť vďačný, ako praktizovať vďačnosť nájdeš na blogu

Després d'uns quants mesos la Penya Barcelonista de Sitges ja disposa d'una seu social. La nova junta que encapçala Alfred Ruiz tenia com a un dels objectius poder recuperar el caliu social a la penya i en aquest sentit era del tot imprescindible disposar d'un local, com el que han pogut trobar, finalment, al Passeig Vilanova, a la primera planta del bar Nou Xampú. Així, el proper 27 d'agost, amb motiu del partit que el Barça jugarà contra l'Atlètic Club al Camp Nou, serà la primera ocasió en la que els culers sitgetans podran gaudir de la nova seu. La Penya també està treballant en la gala del seu 50è aniversari i ja té data de celebració. Serà el 25 de setembre a l'Hotel ME Terramar, on s'espera també la presència, no confirmada encara, del president del FC Barcelona, Joan Laporta. Poc a poc, la penya es va posant al dia i de tot aquest procés n'hem pogut parlar amb el seu president Alfred Ruiz i els membres de junta Josep Aracil i Guillem Escolà.

[2:08] On with the Show! Our guest today is Dawnmarie Black. She is the Senior Vice President and Client Relationship Manager at Amwins, and she is the President of the Association of Professional Insurance Women (APIW). [2:26] We'll talk a bit about her career journey, what she believes it takes to attract and retain talent in insurance and risk management, and the interconnected risks that are on her radar. Let's get to it! [2:39] Interview! Dawnmarie Black, Welcome to RIMScast! [2:48] Justin says, you know Dawnmarie Black from Amwins, and she is also the President of the Association of Professional Insurance Women (APIW). Justin is wearing their pin. [3:21] Dawnmarie is a Client Relationship Manager at Amwins. She builds relationships with retail trading partners. It's a strategic national, corporate relationship across the U.S. [3:35] Dawnmarie works and collaborates with their market placement teams or carrier strategy teams and Amwins internal brokers. [3:44] There's a lot of collaboration to ensure that Amwins brokers are finding the opportunities and so the client and Amwins understand how Amwins fits into their strategic priorities, and to grow both businesses. [4:04] Dawnmarie says she and her team are there to support the retail brokers and also support Amwins's internal brokers in their growth initiatives. [4:13] Dawnmarie joined Amwins in September of 2025. [4:32] Dawnmarie's father owned an insurance agency in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania. She worked at his agency from age 16. She went to Allegheny College in Meadville and worked at a local agency. She did a lot of mailroom, file room, cold calling, and CSR work. [4:59] Dawnmarie thought she would ultimately move up in her father's agency and someday be the succession plan. He sold it, and Dawnmarie went to work for Chubb in their training program. It was a phenomenal start into this industry. They had a great training program. [5:16] Dawnmarie says a lot of her group are still colleagues and friends today, which set the stage for her career. [5:21] Dawnmarie says she moved through underwriting and brokerage, she built and launched an IT system at Aon, and went back to underwriting for a while. Most recently, Dawnmarie was the head of market development for the Americas at Lloyd's of London. [5:54] Dawnmarie says it was an incredible role to understand what's happening in the global marketplace, at a 30,000-foot view, working with coders in the U.S. very closely. This is how she got to Amwins. She was promoting the Lloyd's market to the Amwins leadership team. [6:37] Justin finds it fascinating that Dawnmarie was not the successor to her father but made her own way in the insurance industry. She learned it from the ground up. She has touched every part of the industry except for claims. She has come full circle, working with retailers again. [7:04] Dawnmarie says it has been a very interesting and fulfilling journey. She feels like it has placed her well to be in a position like this, to be working with Amwins's retailers. [7:36] Dawnmarie says she establishes trust with people through communication and transparency. She tells it like it is. She also will go the extra mile, out of her way to make sure things get done. At Amwins, there is a service leadership culture. [8:01] Dawnmarie says she is there to help; to help direct, to help move things, or to help resolve things, at a very strategic, macro level. That fills her cup. She owns up to what she is promising.  [8:19] Dawnmarie says, if she tells you she is going to get something done, she will get it done, to the best of her ability, or there will be a very good reason why it hasn't been done. It's important to communicate that. [8:39] Dawnmarie says she thinks that the next generation of leaders exhibits these qualities. They are thoughtful and demanding and have high expectations. When Dawnmarie entered the industry, the culture required her to prove herself. There was a way to approach the business. [9:14] Dawnmarie says the Chubb training program was 12 weeks in their training center in Warren, New Jersey. You learned the policy forms, how to work with insureds, and understand needs. You understood risk. You learned underwriting and pricing. [9:36] The emphasis was understanding the business. Unfortunately for our young risk professionals, there are not as many programs like that available today. [9:49] Dawnmarie says you find companies that are putting training programs together. Amwins has an underwriter development program that is outstanding. A lot of the business produced in Amwins comes from those who have come through the UDP or a broker development program. [10:05] Dawnmarie says our industry has gotten away from the super-formalized training programs, probably to the detriment of our younger professionals, but we're all stepping in and finding ways to fill those gaps. [10:30] Justin concludes that Dawnmarie had an analog, hands-on, pen-and-paper training program. [11:06] Dawnmarie joined the APIW early in her career. She would go to two or three monthly luncheons a year. Then she left APIW for a few years. [11:26] About 10 years ago, while she was at Lloyd's, Dawnmarie was asked to join the board of APIW and get more involved. There, Dawnmarie held the roles of Co-head of Programming, then Treasurer, and ultimately, she was asked to step into the President position. [11:46] Dawnmarie says she has seen the incredible evolution of APIW, going from 500 members to 3,500 members in 11 chapters across the U.S. with 60 corporate sponsorships. APIW has grown since the first time Dawnmarie was involved. [12:20] Dawnmarie says that in her early 40s, she went to her first Women's Leadership Conference by the Insurance Industry Charitable Foundation (IICF). There weren't a lot of events like that then. Dawnmarie was struggling to figure out what she wanted in her career. [12:50] At this Women's Leadership Conference, a woman spoke on the importance of getting involved, joining boards, and growing your network. Dawnmarie had always done that organically, but she hadn't done it thoughtfully. It was client-driven. [13:08] Dawnmarie went back to management and said that IICF board positions go to sponsor companies. She asked if Lloyd's would sponsor IICF and could she be chosen as the board member? That's where she got her first board experience. [13:24] Dawnmarie moved up and ended up Co-chair of the Boston Chapter. She learned a lot, and it prepared her for APIW. [13:41] A Quick Break!

[16:40] Dawnmarie says that the importance of building relationships with communication and transparency applies to risk managers as well. [16:49] Dawnmarie says that risk managers getting to know their brokers and underwriters, building relationships, telling their story, building trust, and understanding the insurance and why a specific carrier is being suggested goes a long way if there's a claim or wording issue. [17:47] Dawnmarie says with the relationships established, with the ability to pick up the phone and say, "We need to have a conversation," you've already set the stage. [18:11] Dawnmarie says emerging risks the insurance industry needs to pay attention to in the next three to five years include addressing AI. Will AI drive margins down? We need to leverage it to do our jobs better. We can't just decide that we're simply going to depend on it. [18:37] AI exists. It's there as a tool. We need to prepare our people to be able to assess it, analyze it, understand it, and program the prompts. The best prompt writers are getting the best results. [18:56] It doesn't mean it's a perfect result, so you need the ability to communicate, analyze, and explain why the output makes sense and how it applies. [19:20] Another emerging need is for more and more data and the ability to depend on that data, using AI to help understand it and being able to explain the data to the board why they can take a larger retention, or why we need more cover in this area. [19:54] Dawnmarie talks about weather-related events. Catastrophic events aren't going away; they're getting worse. Illinois has had more convective storms this year than any other state. It's unexpected and unprepared for. [20:16] The unexpected storm volume creates a shift for the underwriters, clients, and brokers, making sure they have the data to understand what's been exposed and what's been impacted.  [20:30] The models need to address these shifts. We need, as an industry, to be pushing for that: the stronger the models, the more differentiated the models we can have. [20:42] Maybe that's where AI plays a great role, helping us in the changing and adaptation. These are trends Dawnmarie watches. She is so impressed with the data that Amwins has to work with. [21:06] When you have that good data, the world opens up to capital and new strategies. It makes a big difference in where an organization will go strategically. That impacts everybody. [21:23] Sponsorships! You can sponsor a RIMScast episode for this, our weekly show, or a dedicated episode. RIMScast is proud of its longstanding relationships with AXA XL, Global Risk Consultants, Alliant, Zurich, and more. [21:44] Links to many of these episodes are in the show notes.

[22:18] Let's Conclude Our Dialog with APIW President Dawnmarie Black! [22:54] To help make insurance careers more appealing to young professionals and career changers, Dawnmarie asks you to stop saying, "I just fell into insurance." We have a story to tell. [23:13] There is a reason someone came into this industry. It probably wasn't planned, but how they got started and why they stayed; we need to talk more about why people stay in insurance. Because they love it! It is a wonderful ecosystem for growth and travel. It's stable. [23:37] APIW just held Intern Days, one in New York, one in Chicago. This was their first year in Chicago, and about 20 people came. It was their second year in New York. About 50 came. [23:51] Dawnmarie says we do this out of our budget. There's no charge for it. We bring the interns together for four hours. They do a leadership panel, networking, and answering questions.  [24:04] Dawnmarie says a lot of other associations do this. She mentions RISE Professionals. They had a terrific Leadership Conference and Gala in Florida. [24:20] That's an opportunity for young professionals to come together with very good programming around leadership. Networking with their peers and colleagues. Dressing up and going to a gala and celebrating. Dawnmarie has heard only positive feedback about that. [24:38] APIW supports RISE. RISE supports the APIW Mentorship Program. You'll see a lot of interconnectivity among the insurance associations. They partner to share great programs rather than duplicating efforts. It helps both associations. [25:01] The market in Charlotte rallies around Community Matters. There was a week-long session two weeks ago bringing in young children from under-represented communities to learn and understand about insurance. [25:20] Dawnmarie says those kinds of programs where we're reaching out to talent, not only through traditional risk management schools, but looking at non-traditional avenues and non-traditional diversity avenues, and the HBCUs. The Black Sisterhood does incredible work. [26:05] Justin gives a shoutout to the Spencer Educational Foundation. Dawnmarie says they have done such an incredible job in rallying the industry. [26:22] At the Spencer dinner, when the young professionals get up to speak, they are inspirational in their careers and their appreciation for the opportunities to come into this industry. Justin doesn't know how they found time to sleep, doing all they did while in college. [26:57] Justin and Dawnmarie discuss some of the speakers. He says, you hear these young people and wonder if they partied at all in college or were they just working on their risk management career? Justin notes there is the monetary incentive of scholarships and grants. [27:41] Dawnmarie speaks of the incredible amount of work ethic she sees in the students who have come through the Spencer Educational Foundation program. Justin says they inspire him to work a little harder. [28:08] Justin asks how we can keep the newer professionals engaged and committed to a long career. Dawnmarie says what seems to be important to them is that sense of community. [28:24] We all come to work to work, but there's also the culture that you create, the culture of trust, and the idea that there are mentorship opportunities, and more senior people in the organization looking out for you, helping propel your career and answering your questions. [28:48] Dawnmarie says that is key when you've got the younger generation, and you've got an experienced generation. In our industry, we have four or five different generations rolling through, all who come at things slightly differently. [29:03] Dawnmarie says it's about understanding where people are coming from. She speaks of investing in talent development programs and professional programs, allowing talent the opportunity to become involved in outside associations, and encouraging networking. [29:40] Dawnmarie closes this thought with the Amwins program, RTTP. They have people on the retirement track, senior brokers with books of business, and they have young people who are coming through the Broker Development Program. [30:14] Two get matched up. There's a relationship formed. The client is taken care of because there's succession planning and consistency. The two are learning from each other. The books are passed off. [30:28] There's respect for the experience that the senior broker brings to the table, and there's respect for what that young person is learning. Dawnmarie hasn't seen a lot of that across the industry. One of the things that enticed her about Amwins is that approach to the generations. [30:54] Justin says kudos to Amwins. He has met some Amwins folks at Riskworld, and they're lovely. A Justin and Dawnmarie have in common is Liz King Kramer, a former APIW President. Liz gave Justin an APIW pin. [31:18] Dawnmarie says Liz is the best! She has been mentoring Dawnmarie for over four years. Liz was Treasurer before Dawnmarie, and President before Dawnmarie. Liz helped Dawnmarie learn in both roles. She's become a terrific friend and partner. [31:42] Munich Re just hosted a Golf Day for women. Dawnmarie was on a Panel with Liz King Kramer and Sabrina Hart, and then they did a golf clinic. Liz is an incredible leader for APIW. [31:59] Dawnmarie says an APIW President's term is two years. Dawnmarie is at two years; however, she is going to extend for one more year. Then Tracey Vasile, who is an Industry Liaison and First Vice President, is going to step in. They will transition together. [32:27] The APIW is having its 50th Anniversary Gala on Tuesday, Nov. 3, 2026, at the Edison Ballroom in Manhattan on 47th Street. Everyone's gearing up. They are working on a wonderful video. Dawnmarie says it's going to be a night to remember; everybody dress up and celebrate! [32:56] Dawnmarie says the women who are involved, chapter heads from the various cities, the 2026 Woman of the Year, 14 past Women of the Year, and Cecilia Norad, the Founder of APIW, are all coming for an incredible lineup of programming, a beautiful dinner, and a beautiful event [33:47] Dawnmarie says it's for making connections and strengthening those connections. [33:51] Dawnmarie has had the opportunity to sit as a founder on Women In Specialty and Excess (WISE), an amazing emerging organization, and it was simply too much for her between being President of APIW and being part of WISE, so she stepped back.   [34:07] Dawnmarie said what it made her realize is that the professionals in this industry, it could be any of the associations, step up, look outside of their sphere, and create these opportunities for other people to connect in these associations. [34:26] Dawnmarie says when she thinks about 50 years, she thinks about all the work that has gone into standing up WISE or what Amy Cooper did with RISE, and where she's taking it. Fifty years of doing it really says a lot. [34:40] Dawnmarie says it's a time to pause and think: where are we going for our next 50? Because we're going to be here and we're going to be delivering the program, the networking, the development, and the leadership. [34:52] Dawnmarie says that is what we're excited about. We're looking at the past, the current, the future, and bringing in the young professionals; the people who helped build it and the young professionals, bridging that divide. [35:36] Dawnmarie says she has a level of comfort on stage. During COVID, she learned that she struggles with virtual presentations. [35:47] Dawnmarie used to get nervous in front of people; now she gets excited because she feels the energy in the room, she's creating the conversation, and engaging people. It is such a different experience. In a way, she's grateful for the virtual experience. It's taken away the fear. [36:12] Justin says, Dawnmarie, it has been a pleasure to connect with you here on RIMScast. A quick reminder for everyone: The APIW's 50th Anniversary Gala will be on Tuesday, November 3, 2026, at the Edison Ballroom at 47th Street in Manhattan. [36:28] Justin says, Dawnmarie will be there. If you attend, please let her know that you heard this RIMScast interview, and that's what piqued your interest to get there. I look forward to seeing you at RIMS events and Spencer events, too. [36:41] Dawnmarie thanks Justin and RIMS and says, 350 of us at the Gala, maybe more. We look forward to seeing you there. [36:54] Special thanks again to Dawnmarie Black of Amwins and APIW for joining us here on RIMScast. APIW's 50th Anniversary Gala will be on November 3, 2026, at the Edison Ballroom in New York City.

Bad Bunny acaba de cerrar una etapa gigantesca de su carrera y, en los últimos días, toda la conversación en noticias y redes gira alrededor del final de su gira Debí Tirar Más Fotos World Tour y de los récords históricos que acaba de romper. Según CNN en Español y Once Noticias, Benito Antonio Martínez Ocasio dio el último concierto de la gira el 22 de julio en el King Baudouin Stadium de Bruselas, Bélgica, después de unos ocho meses recorriendo cuatro continentes con alrededor de 56–57 fechas en 20 países, desde Santo Domingo hasta Madrid, Tokio, Sídney y más. Los reportes describen un cierre cargado de emoción, con Bad Bunny visiblemente conmovido, despidiéndose del público entre lágrimas y agradecimientos tras convertir el estadio en un enorme “perreo” colectivo. Medios como Los40 México, El Diario NY y Diario Contraste coinciden en que esta gira ya se cataloga como una de las más exitosas de la historia de la música latina: Billboard Boxscore detalla que Debí Tirar Más Fotos World Tour superó los 429 millones de dólares en recaudación hasta principios de julio, y conteos más recientes de Los40 hablan de unos 467 millones de dólares, con más de 3 millones de entradas vendidas y alrededor de 55 conciertos en cuatro continentes. En redes, cuentas de fans como Bad Bunny Daily Updates y Bad Bunny HQ han estado compartiendo clips virales del último show, donde se ve al artista abrazando a su equipo en el escenario y recibiendo una ovación que se extiende mientras se quita las gafas para secarse las lágrimas. Uno de los detalles de los que más se está hablando esta semana es la “canción exclusiva” del cierre. Televisa y TV Azteca, así como portales de entretenimiento en México y Argentina, destacan que en Bruselas Bad Bunny sorprendió a los asistentes al incluir por fin 120 como tema especial del set, después de que durante meses se negara a tocarla pese a ser una de las más pedidas en el tour. En otras crónicas, como las de Europa FM y Los40 Argentina, se subraya que en esa última noche también rescató Un coco, de Un Verano Sin Ti, dándole a la audiencia un guiño nostálgico a una etapa anterior de su discografía. Las noticias también han recogido el único momento amargo de este tramo final: la cancelación de su segundo concierto en Milán por una tormenta eléctrica. Europa FM explica que, ante el riesgo climático, se decidió evacuar a unas 80 mil personas y cancelar definitivamente el show. En el escenario de Bruselas, Bad Bunny se dirigió a sus fans italianos y prometió volver a Milán en el futuro, insistiendo en que “las cosas de Dios no están en nuestras manos”. Esa promesa se ha viralizado en X e Instagram, con muchos seguidores especulando sobre una próxima gira que sí incluya nuevas fechas en Italia. A nivel de industria, la gran noticia de estos días es que, según Billboard y Los40 República Dominicana, Bad Bunny se convirtió formalmente en el primer artista latino –y el primer artista que no canta en inglés– en superar los 1.000 millones de dólares en ingresos por giras desde que se lleva este registro. Con Debí Tirar Más Fotos World Tour, las cifras acumuladas de sus conciertos ya pasan de los 1.080 a 1.200 millones de dólares, colocándolo en un club muy reducido de superestrellas globales. Billboard también destaca que, con esta última etapa, Benito ha encabezado la lista mensual Top Tours en diez ocasiones, algo sin precedentes para un artista de su perfil. Otra conversación fuerte en redes esta semana ha sido que todo esto lo consiguió sin pisar Estados Unidos: medios como Los40 México resaltan que esta gira histórica llenó estadios en América Latina, Europa, Asia y Oceanía, pero decidió saltarse por completo el mercado estadounidense, lo que muchos analistas leen como una declaración de poder cultural del mundo hispanohablante y de la diáspora latina. En los perfiles de fans en Instagram y TikTok abundan recopilaciones del tour: sus ocho noches seguidas en Madrid, la residencia en la CDMX, las colaboraciones sorpresa como la de Gorillaz en Londres, y la evolución del show, con arreglos en vivo que incorporan elementos de rock, electrónica y plena puertorriqueña. También se comparten teorías sobre su próximo movimiento: algunos portales como Gala y medios de espectáculo en Brasil recuerdan que hace unas semanas el artista se mostró muy cariñoso con su público brasileño en Instagram, alimentando la idea de que podría estar preparando música con sabor más fuerte a funk carioca o colaboraciones nuevas para un futuro proyecto. Por ahora, artículos recientes de Los40 y otros medios subrayan que Bad Bunny se ha “despedido de los escenarios”, al menos temporalmente, después de este cierre monumental. No hay anuncio oficial de nuevo álbum ni de otra gira; la sensación en la prensa es que Benito se tomará un respiro tras esta maratón de conciertos mientras el público se queda revisitando el álbum Debí Tirar Más Fotos y las grabaciones de sus shows que circulan en redes. Gracias por acompañarme y gracias por seguir tan de cerca todo lo que pasa con Bad Bunny. Vuelvan la próxima semana para más novedades del mundo de la música y la cultura pop.

Bad Bunny has just closed a historic chapter in his career, wrapping up his Debí Tirar Más Fotos World Tour while simultaneously breaking a major touring record and staying highly visible in pop culture and sports conversation. According to CNN en Español and Los40 México, Benito Antonio Martínez Ocasio ended the Debí Tirar Más Fotos World Tour on July 22 with an emotional, sold‑out show at King Baudouin Stadium in Brussels, Belgium, the final stop of a massive run that crossed four continents and 20 countries and is being described as one of the most successful tours of his life. Los40 and Oncenoticias report that the tour reached 56–57 shows, moved over two million tickets in its first 41 dates alone, and generated more than 360 million dollars from those initial shows, with final estimates pushing the full run toward roughly 430–450 million dollars in gross revenue. In Brussels, outlets like Los40 Argentina and Los40 España describe Bad Bunny visibly moved, in tears, thanking the crowd and treating the night as “the end of an era,” a symbolic closing of this phase of his global stadium dominance. Fans posted clips across X, TikTok, and Instagram of him speaking emotionally to the audience, bowing to the crowd, and closing with surprise moments and an exclusive song performance that turned the last stop into a kind of farewell celebration for the tour. The final week of the tour also brought drama. Europafm and El Sol de Mendoza report that his second show in Milan, Italy, had to be evacuated and ultimately canceled due to a sudden, intense storm with heavy rain and hail that created a dangerous situation for roughly 80,000 attendees. Live Nation Italia confirmed that the date would not be rescheduled, but all tickets would be fully refunded. On social media, videos of the chaotic evacuation and lightning over the venue went viral, while Bad Bunny took to the stage and later to his channels to promise he would return to Milan in a future tour, telling fans that there are things “in God's hands,” acknowledging that safety had to come first. Beyond the tour logistics, one of the biggest news angles this week is the scale of Bad Bunny's live business. Los40 República Dominicana and Los40 US report that, based on Billboard Boxscore data, he has now become the first Latino artist to surpass 1,000 million dollars in career touring revenue, crossing about 1.08 billion dollars across 260 reported shows. That total combines Debí Tirar Más Fotos with earlier tours such as Most Wanted Tour, El Último Tour del Mundo, and his pre‑pandemic runs, putting him in an elite group of global touring legends and underscoring how much he's transformed the economics of Latin music on a stadium scale. Gala in Germany notes that he has again topped Billboard's monthly Top Tours chart, marking the tenth time his name leads that global ranking. On social media, fans and music accounts have been framing this as a turning point: clips and threads on X and TikTok talk about him as the face of a “new touring era” for Spanish‑language music, highlighting the fact that he filled stadiums in places like Australia, Portugal, France, Poland, and Italy, markets where a Spanish‑speaking urban artist had rarely, if ever, dominated venues at this scale. Many listeners are speculating what comes next, reading the “end of an era” messaging as the start of a new artistic phase, possibly a stylistic shift or a more politically engaged period, especially in light of his recent video for NUEVAYoL, which outlets like XEVA describe as full of social and political imagery and criticism of inequality and anti‑immigrant rhetoric in the United States. Even with the tour over, Bad Bunny has remained present in the broader cultural conversation this week. TV Azteca notes that he shared an Instagram Story during the FIFA World Cup 2026 final, showing a screen with the match and figurines of Lionel Messi and Lamine Yamal, confirming that he was following the game closely from a beach‑like setting and subtly inserting himself into the world's biggest sporting event conversation without an official performance. For listeners, the big picture over these past seven days is clear: Bad Bunny has closed a globe‑spanning stadium tour in emotional fashion, navigated a storm‑forced cancellation with promises to return, shattered the one‑billion‑dollar touring barrier for Latin artists, and kept his presence felt in sports and social debates, all while hinting that a new chapter is coming after what he and the media are calling the end of an era.

In this episode of the Express News Group's 27Speaks: Behind the Headlines podcast, host Joe Shaw is joined by Brendan O'Reilly, Michelle Trauring, Dan Stark and Jack Motz to discuss the latest East End news. This week, O'Reilly discusses a Sag Harbor boating accident, while Trauring talks about the upcoming Ellen Hermanson Foundation gala.

Most CEOs of nonprofits have opinions about boards. Christy Casey-Moore has a 100% give rate and a $1.2M gala to back hers up.Christy is the CEO of Heart Gift, a global nonprofit that brings children from other countries to the United States for life-saving heart surgeries they can't access at home. Ten years in, she joins Trevor to walk through what it actually takes to build a board that fundraises, a team that supports each other under real pressure, and an event that clears seven figures.In this episode: why Christy can spot a hiring fit in the first five minutes of an interview, how she structures her board around give-or-get with no resume builders allowed, the controversial thing she tells nonprofits about marketing spend ("put your seatbelt on"), why she doesn't seat major donors at her own table on gala night, the exact job she hands her board members the moment they walk into the event, and why she stopped thanking donors in the moment during the auction — and started catching them later instead.Plus: what Christy does the Monday morning after every gala that most CEOs don't.Chapters:00:00 Intro01:15 Christy Casey-Moore and HeartGift Foundation02:09 Board Engagement and Organizational Culture04:06 Entrepreneurship and Nonprofit Leadership Symmetry05:17 About HeartGift and Its Mission06:42 Team Size, Hiring Lessons, and Culture Fit10:27 Supportive Organizational Culture14:09 Building a Unicorn Board18:17 Event Night Responsibilities and Strategies22:06 Missions Clarity and Marketing Investment27:04 Leadership, Listening, and Continuous Learning31:00 Evolution of Fundraising and Donor Engagement37:14 Post-Event Follow-up and Gratitude

This week we're discussing a pair of darkwave records which both show off the range of the genre and also sit quite far away from especially trendy versions of the style which have perhaps worn out their welcome. Fist up is the classic Gala from Argentinian legends Euroshima, which helped establish the standard for the genre for generations of South American acts to come. Next, the moody but forceful Mire Of Mercury, the most recent LP from Estonia's Bedless Bones, draws links between the dancefloor and pagan ancience.

Husband-and-wife duo Isaac Lekach and Lillian Shalom have spent the past few years developing fragrances for other brands. With El Morocco Perfumery, it's finally their turn.In an attempt to recreate the magic of cafe society (and the legendary club for which the brand is named), the pair approached this project like archivists, collecting every handkerchief, matchbook, and photo they could get their hands on.

Are pregnancy centers still needed after the overturning of Roe v. Wade? The answer may surprise you. In this episode of Fearless with Mark & Amber, we examine the growing need for Christ-centered pregnancy centers in a post-Dobbs America. While abortion laws have changed in many states, women and families continue to face difficult, life-changing decisions every day. Amber also welcomes Kelli Carper, Executive Director of Hope Lives Pregnancy Center in Carrollton, Kentucky, to discuss how their ministry is meeting practical needs while faithfully sharing the Gospel. From pregnancy support and parenting education to helping fathers, grandparents, foster families, and adoptive families, Hope Lives is demonstrating the love of Christ one family at a time.

Two guesses about the topic of this special bonus edition for today's semiquincentennial, and neither of them count. That's right: we take up the Declaration of Independence and revisit some of the lingering issues that have arisen during this season of renewed debate about America's "birth certificate," as well as a few that haven't seen much discussion.For example, John noted in National Review Online that contrary to popular impression, the Declaration does not reject energetic executive power, while Steve recall for The Daily Wire (alas, paywalled) the contrast between how the left handled the bicentennial in 1976 and how they are approaching it today, calling it "The Patriotism Crisis That Could Tear America Apart."Sample:"Patriotism among a growing number of Democrats seems conditional about whether they are in power or not. And a conditional patriotism is a weak patriotism. The last time so many Democrats were conditional about their attachment to the country and their fellow citizens ended in a civil war. “Patriotism is civic friendship,” the political philosopher Harry Jaffa once wrote. “Patriotism is the link between justice and friendship in its purest or transpolitical form. Those who see each other as utterly alien cannot be fellow citizens.”Note: The 3WHH will be going on hiatus for the rest of July, as we retool the show for a new season. Stay tuned for announcements on our group Substack, Political Questions, for updates.

After Donald Trump kicked off his personalized celebration of America's 250th birthday with a rally on the National Mall on Wednesday night, news accounts described the event as very sparsely attended. Trump himself practically begged for more people to show up to the next event set for July 4. Amusingly, this comes after Fox News madly hyped the Wednesday rally in an effort to drum up excitement. But then, as Matt Gertz of Media Matters reports in a good piece on all this, Fox grappled with the bad initial turnout by largely avoiding any discussion of it. We think that's pretty revealing. So we talked to Gertz about all of it: We discuss why Trump's whole gala is so important for the broader, more sinister Trump-Fox project that's underway, the real reason Trump-Fox want our the 250th anniversary to be a celebration of Trump's “personalist” rule, and what it will really mean if it's all a bust.  Looking for More from the DSR Network?

It's Tuesday which means there's a new Hallmark movie to review! ABOUT THE LOVE HEIST Celebrity stylist Kayli must team up with hotel security chief Mills to track down an iconic piece of fashion history after it goes missing on her watch before the Chicago Costume Gala. AIR DATE & NETWORK FOR THE LOVE HEIST June 20, 2026 | Hallmark CAST & CREW OF THE LOVE HEIST Director: Kevin Fair Writer: Holly Gent Cast: Lyndsy Fonseca as Kayli Peter Porte as Mills BRAN'S MOVIE SYNOPSIS We start off the movie WITH THE MEET CUTE! WILD STUFF. We meet Kayli who is pulling up to a hotel, grabs a luggage cart, and is stopped by a hotel worker named Mills. He's makes a joke, they have some cute banter and then she gets bumped into him by a paparazi. He catches her though, don't worry. Once inside, they bump into each other again when he hops on her cart to help him capture a drone out of the air. Kayli works for famed stylaist Celine and heads up to the room and theres a knock at the door. Wouldn't you know it, It's Mills. He has a delivery. It's the dress that they are going to dress famous actor, Rini-Jean. The dress is a big deal. It belonged to Elizabeth Taylor. Mills is like you need to sign this paper releasing the delivery into your hands because security is real tight right now. Apparently, there was already a robbery of something Gala related earlier this week, so the hotel is really locked down and following protocol. He helps her calm down - this is her first time doing this event without Celine there but she thinks Kayli is ready. Mills tells her that he'll be back soon to pick the dress back up and put it in the hotel safe.  We find out that Mills is about to get a big promotion as head of security for the entire hotel chain.  Rini-Jean comes in and tells Kayli she's not thrilled about the designs anymore. She asks Kayli if she can make some changes. So Kayli runs out and gets soem supplies and wips something togehter and Rini-Jean is pumped. She's like aside from the Elizabeth Taylor dress, I want you to change everything. Big stress!  Mills comes back by to grab the dress and that's when they discover that while Kayli was out grabbing supplies, someone came in and stole it!  Naturally, this leads to Kayli and Mills hanging out a ton, getting to know each other, have having some serious flirty flirty fun times.  Naturally, they decide they're gonna go to all of the parties and keep an eye out for a thief. At the first party thye go to, the lights go out and naturally they almost kiss. But when they come back, they see that something is missing from one of the attendees.  Since they're gonna be going to all these parties together, Mills has go to learn how to dance. He knocks on her door one night, and she gives him a dancing lesson and they almost kiss but they're interupted. She's like I gotta go but he's like oh if you think that's gonna stop me and then they kiss big ones!  While at the big party, Reni-Jean gets proposed to but the ring isn't in the dudes pocket. Kayli looks around and sees this suspcious body guard making a run for it, so she follows him. He is about to drop the ring in a drain when Mills comes in and tackles him. The ring goes flying and Kayli leaps to get it. The dude admits to everything. They recover everything except the Elizabeth Taylor dress. Kayli says she's just ready for life to go back to normal. Looks like he's going to be getting that promotion afterwords. She asks him if he'll be in LA at all for work and she says every 7 months and they hug.  The next day, when she goes to talk to him, it turns out he quit. He felt like the security lapse was his fault and he didn't deserve the gig.  Rini-Jean asks Kayli to be her full time styalist. It's time for her to spread her wings and go out on her own!   She goes to find Mills to convince him not to quit and he's like oh i didn't quit, i got fired. Wait a second! HE knows who did it! His boss who was mad that he was getting promoted over him. They go and find the dress and dude gets arrested.  But he's not gonna take his job back.
