Bitcoin faces volatility after a whale dumps 24,000 BTC ($2.7B), even as whales accumulate Ethereum and BlackRock adds $150M more ETH. Markets brace for Powell's Jackson Hole decision, with Fed officials signaling caution on rate cuts while Asian stocks rally on pivot hopes. In Washington, Senator Lummis pushes a crypto bill, the DOJ shifts enforcement focus, and banks lobby to reshape the GENIUS Act. Globally, China eyes yuan-backed stablecoins, while Coinbase's $2.9B Deribit buy and Bullish's IPO show institutions diving deeper. With whales, regulators, and Wall Street all moving fast, will Powell's decision spark Bitcoin's next big move?

Bitcoin sits near $110K as all eyes turn to Jerome Powell's Jackson Hole decision and whether the Fed will signal rate cuts or stick with “higher-for-longer.” Washington heats up with Senator Lummis pushing a crypto market structure bill, the DOJ easing enforcement on developers, and banks lobbying to reshape the GENIUS Act. Globally, China explores yuan-backed stablecoins, while whales shift from Bitcoin into Ethereum and BlackRock doubles down on ETH. Even the Kanye West memecoin shows the risks of speculation. With policy, institutions, and macro all colliding, the key question remains: will the Fed's decision spark Bitcoin's next big move?

A deeply personal album of protest, love and self-acceptance — created with AI, powered by vulnerability, and released in support of dementia research.London, UK – August 2025 — After decades behind the decks, DJ-turned-artist F Monday steps into the spotlight with his debut album The Gift, out 10th October 2025. Blending protest pop, soul, and singer-songwriter sensibilities with hints of Latin and bossa nova, the record is both deeply personal and boldly experimental.The lead single, Maybe I'm Gay, will be released on 29th August 2025 across all streaming and download platforms.“It captures my experience as a cis gay man — feeling different, othered, and at times excluded, even within the LGBTQIA+ community. Over time, I found self-acceptance by recognising that many of those feelings are universal — and that being queer is universal too,” says F Monday.The Gift journeys through protest, grief, joy, and self-acceptance. From the bold defiance of Maybe I'm Gay, to the intimate title track The Gift, the playful EDM-lite Not Just Friends, and the revelatory Hello God :-), the album explores what it means to live openly, vulnerably, and authentically.Created in collaboration with AI tools, The Gift is both an act of self-discovery and a creative experiment — a reminder that music can be a mirror, reflecting who we are and what we hope to become.Importantly, all proceeds from the album will go to Alzheimer's Research UK. Dementia is the UK's leading cause of death, with 982,000 people currently affected — a number expected to rise to 1.4 million by 2040. Globally, the World Health Organisation estimates 57 million people live with dementia, with nearly 10 million new cases every year.Spotify users can pre-save Maybe I'm Gay now by clicking here.The Gift — released 10th October 2025. Every play, every download, every share helps bring us closer to a cure for dementia. Please join in.

Inspired by a popular trend on social media, this episode provides a crucial, in-depth discussion on a topic that is often difficult to address.Gordon shares powerful audio clips from real-life situations to highlight the reality of verbal and emotional abuse, as well as the threatening behavior that can escalate to physical violence. He emphasizes that this kind of abuse is never justified, no matter the circumstances.The episode also delves into staggering statistics, revealing the true scale of IPV in the United States and globally. Key data points include:An average of 24 people per minute are victims of intimate partner violence in the US, which translates to over 12 million women and men annually.Over one in three women and one in four men in the US have experienced physical violence, rape, and/or stalking by an intimate partner in their lifetime.Globally, around 140 women or girls are killed every day by a family member or intimate partner.Less than 40% of women who experience violence seek help of any kind.Gordon also provides a Christian perspective, explaining that while the Bible does not use the term "domestic violence," it strongly condemns the actions associated with it and advocates for peace, love, and protection within the family.00:00 Introduction and Trigger Warning01:35 Disturbing Clips of Domestic Violence03:40 Analyzing the Abusive Behavior06:53 Impact of Alcohol and Drugs09:40 Emotional Control and Responsibility10:55 Kidnapping and Control11:16 Confrontation and Plea for Release11:47 Analyzing Abusive Behavior14:12 Statistics on Domestic Violence15:18 Personal Testimony and Broader Impact19:44 Biblical Perspective on Abuse24:55 Creating a Safety Plan26:32 Resources and Legal Considerations29:15 Final Thoughts and EncouragementContact No Pillz: Tweet us @nopillzpodcast Email: nopillzpodcast@gmail.com YouTube: @nopillzpodcast Insta: @nopillzpodcast Thanks for listening & keep podcasting!
In 2013, 9-year-old Ella Roberta died from a severe asthma attack. She became the first person in the United Kingdom (and possibly the world) to have “air pollution” listed as the cause of death on her death certificate. Her mother, Rosamund Adoo-Kissi-Debrah, founded the Ella Roberta Foundation and has become a global voice for clean air. Globally, the World Health Organization says that air pollution is associated with 6 to 7 million premature deaths every year. Addressing the cause of these deaths would also go a long way to addressing climate disruption. And since talking about climate has become so politically fraught, should we reframe the conversation to focus on taking care of our air? Guests: Rosamund Adoo-Kissi-Debrah, Founder, Ella Roberta Foundation Sheila Watson, Deputy Director, FIA Foundation Susan Joy Hassol, Director, Climate Communication Highlights: (00:00) Intro (03:00) Rosamund shares details of Ella's young life and her early asthma attacks (08:00) Ella becomes first person to have “air pollution” listed as cause of death (13:00) Rosamund's work sharing Ella's story and raising awareness about air pollution (20:30) How poisonous transportation emissions are and policy tools to reduce them (26:00) Economic development does not need to sit contrary to healthy air (27:00) Dieselgate and the work of the True Real Urban Emissions initiative (31:00) Extreme heat can make air pollution more deadly (37:00) Why we shouldn't use the term "climate change” (43:00) Finding ways to connect with people on climate based on their priorities (49:00) How to convey the seriousness of climate threats while also empowering people to feel that they can make a difference (52:30) Climate One More Thing For show notes and related links, visit https://www.climateone.org/watch-and-listen/podcasts Support Climate One by going ad-free!

Advise, the AI-powered data analytics platform provider, has announced its expansion into the UK, fuelled by a recent investment of €1.8M. The company will hire 10 new team members in the UK to facilitate the expansion and bring its agentic AI platform, designed specifically for consumer-packaged goods (CPG) companies, to the market. The Advise platform, leveraging GenAI and Agentic AI capabilities, automates data from multiple sources at speed, producing personalised insights and recommendations for CPG companies to increase their market share and enable informed decision-making. Entry into the UK marks the beginning of Advise's international growth strategy. The UK's CPG market is worth approximately €24BN and the current addressable market for Advise's services in the UK stands at approximately €2BN. With the expectation that this will continue to grow as, increasingly, CPG companies embrace AI, Advise forecasts that its customer base will double in the next 12 months. The company also expects revenues to grow two-fold by the end of 2026 and annually thereafter. The company's expansion comes on the back of its sustained success in local markets. Advise currently counts Britvic, Pilgrim Food Masters, Tayto, Kerry and Dr Oetker as customers. Advise's first UK customer, G's Fresh, have been successfully using the platform for the past 12 months. With annual revenues in excess of £550 million, the family-owned company is one of the UK's leading fresh food producers, cultivating crops on 17,500 hectares of land and offering an extensive product range, from salad leaves to fresh vegetables, across the UK, Europe and North America. John Phelan, Co-Founder and Commercial Director, said: "Our expansion into the UK is just the first step in our international expansion strategy as we continue on a path of rapid and ambitious growth. The size of the UK market and its strong appetite for innovation will allow us to extend our market reach and grow our customer base. "Globally, brands are coming under increasing pressure to boost efficiency while reducing costs. Although the demand for smarter, more agile solutions is evident, many companies are struggling to identify the right AI solutions to meet their needs. "Our team has more than 20 years of experience in researching and developing AI technologies. As a result, we have a product that can not only make recommendations, but explain them, too. It will change the way an entire industry does things - for the better - and now, the time is right for us to expand into the UK. Our entry into the market also marks our first year working with G's Fresh, one of the biggest brand names in fresh produce. For them, and many others, we are redefining how they approach analytics to make the right decisions, faster." Matt Godbold, Category Marketing Director at G's Fresh, said: "The Advise platform has been a game-changer for my department. Gone are the days where we would spend hours processing data. Advise delivers high-quality, customised insights to the G's Fresh dashboard at speed. It's easy, it's efficient, and effortlessly combines multiple data sources from EPOS, panel and survey data to show where the market drivers are. It allows me to shift my focus from manual analysis to driving real business growth." See more stories here.

Liberal democracy is under siege. Domestically, popular discontent with civic, cultural and political institutions is tempting voters in many democracies towards more authoritarian leadership. Globally, the axis of autocracies in Russia and China threaten to upend weaker democratic neighbors. Donald Trump's trade policies and diplomacy are weakening alliances and undermining faith in "the west.” Is democracy in retreat? Does it matter? On this episode of Free Expression, Gerry Baker and former British prime minister Rishi Sunak discuss the state of democracy in the U.K. and the U.S, how liberal democracy can be strengthened, and how rapid technological change is affecting economics and politics. And the U.K.'s last Conservative prime minister offers his thoughts on the state of conservatism on both sides of the Atlantic. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

"If you're going to be running a very elite research institution, you have to have the best people. To have the best people, you have to trust them and empower them. You can't hire a world expert in some area and then tell them what to do. They know more than you do. They're smarter than you are in their area. So you've got to trust your people. One of our really foundational commitments to our people is: we trust you. We're going to work to empower you. Go do the thing that you need to do. If somebody in the labs wants to spend 5, 10, 15 years working on something they think is really important, they're empowered to do that." - Doug Burger Fresh out of the studio, Doug Burger, Technical Fellow and Corporate Vice President at Microsoft Research, joins us to explore Microsoft's bold expansion into Southeast Asia with the recent launch of the Microsoft Research Asia lab in Singapore. From there, Doug shares his accidental journey from academia to leading global research operations, reflecting on how Microsoft Research's open collaboration model empowers over thousands of researchers worldwide to tackle humanity's biggest challenges. Following on, he highlights the recent breakthroughs from Microsoft Research for example, the quantum computing breakthrough with topological qubits, the evolution from lines of code to natural language programming, and how AI is accelerating innovation across multiple scaling dimensions beyond traditional data limits. Addressing the intersection of three computing paradigms—logic, probability, and quantum—he emphasizes that geographic diversity in research labs enables Microsoft to build AI that works for everyone, not just one region. Closing the conversation, Doug shares his vision of what great looks like for Microsoft Research with researchers driven by purpose and passion to create breakthroughs that advance both science and society.

America is not just a country—it's the world's casino. Not the polished Vegas floor where the house always wins, but a sprawling, chaotic hall where volatility is the product and chaos is the currency. Every four years, our presidential cycle spins the wheel, markets quake, and the rest of the world places its bets. A tweet can erase billions, a rumor can trigger a stampede, and the constant swing between extremes makes this place the perfect playground for anyone who knows how to gamble.What makes it irresistible is how open it is. No real tariff walls, no serious barriers to imports, just a massive consumer base addicted to credit and novelty. For foreign corporations and investors, this is paradise: a market so big and naive it practically begs to be exploited. If the world's billionaires had designed a system to extract value, they would have built America. It's economic alchemy—chaos goes in, profit comes out.In this casino, every crisis is a jackpot. Traders and hedge funds don't fear crashes; they live for them. They short bad news, buy the rebound, and profit from the turbulence in between. Futures, options, derivatives—these tools turn volatility into wealth. You can make money when markets rise, make more when they fall, and sometimes win biggest when blood is in the streets. Ordinary savers? They're the chips on the table, the ones buying high, selling low, and watching their retirement accounts evaporate while the pros pocket billions.And the rules? There aren't any, at least not ones that matter. Fraud is rampant. Hustling is rampant. The pit bosses look the other way, regulations are speed bumps, and anyone clever enough to cheat without getting caught is celebrated. America's casino thrives on caveat emptor—gambler beware—and most players don't even know they're playing. They think they're sharks, but they're whales being carved up by sharper teeth. As the poker saying goes: if you can't spot the sucker in the room, it's you. In this game, America is the sucker.The naivete is staggering. Globally, only a sliver of people understand how these markets work. Most Americans have no clue how derivatives function, why volatility is valuable, or even that the casino exists. They think they're winning because the lights are flashing. The pros—the hedge funds, sovereign wealth managers, and corporations—see them for what they are: easy prey in the richest, loosest market on Earth.And here's the kicker: this chaos doesn't fund the state. The trillions moving through this machine never touch the social fabric. Corporations offshore profits. The ultra-rich disappear wealth into trusts. Capital gains are taxed only when realized, and the smart ones never realize them. The government doesn't collect the rake; it just keeps the lights on while the pros scoop up the chips.There is one way to make this chaos work for the state: tariffs. They're the only clean, unavoidable tax, collected at the border where no lawyer can hide it. Tariffs slow the churn, protect domestic producers, and force corporations to bleed instead of workers. They're the only hedge that could make the casino benefit the people who built it. But tariffs are politically poisoned. Trump liked them, so they're treated like heresy—even though they're the only mechanism that could fund the services Americans say they want.America convinces itself it's running the show, but it isn't. The real winners are the ones who know how to bet on every spin, extract value from every swing, and play both sides of every crisis. The global elites and corporations treat America as their slot machine, their roulette table, their jackpot. And we let them, because we love the flashing lights and the illusion of control.America isn't America's casino. It's the world's. It's where chaos becomes profit, where the sharks circle endlessly, and where everyone else walks away with our chips while we keep spinning the wheel.
With the World Cup less than a year away, USMNT Insider Doug McIntyre joins David Mosse to dive into his projected USMNT squad at the 2026 FIFA World Cup.

Has the demise of London's leading financial services been "greatly exaggerated", and does the underlying evidence tell a very different story? In this interview, held at Mansion House in the historic City of London financial district, the Right Honourable Alastair King (696th Lord Mayor of the City of London) explains his view that the UK enjoys an unrivalled position, untouched by other European capitals. He explains London and the wider UK “moat”, and why it exhibits persistency and resilience. Perhaps the most unexpected statistic is the significant growth in employment numbers in the City since Brexit. He discusses the importance of the Mansion House Reforms and the £75bn of investment by 2030, headed into private assets. He discusses why we must recognise that we need to take more risk, judiciously but emphatically (and this is directed at both public and private markets). Lord Alastair then touches on the lessons we can learn from Canada and Australia and his current priorities. Finally, he explains why we need to get on planes/trains in order to trumpet the UK and drive new business opportunities.

What does it take to build a brand that resonates across cultures… not just across markets? In this special dual-guest episode, Lacey Peace sits down with Nataly Kelly, Chief Marketing Officer at Zappi, and Katherine Melchior Ray, UC Berkeley lecturer and former executive at brands like Nike, Hyatt, and Louis Vuitton. Together, they co-authored the new book Brand Global, Adapt Local: How to Build Brand Value Across Cultures and they're here to share the lessons learned from decades of global brand-building. Nataly and Katherine dive deep into why cultural intelligence is the most under-leveraged skill in modern CX, why brands that ignore cultural context are building in globalization debt, and how something as simple as a melon can repair — or ruin — customer trust. They explain the importance of shared values, the risks of applying the same CX metrics globally (spoiler: NPS doesn't mean the same thing in every country), and how AI is both accelerating and complicating cross-cultural brand connection. From real stories about Kit Kat's flavor strategy in Japan to awkward CX blunders in global grocery stores, this episode is packed with tangible takeaways and perspective shifts for any business looking to scale with humanity and intention.

Globally, virtual currencies are back in the limelight. In India, UPI transactions hit record highs almost every month. Yet, the value of cash in circulation has gone up by Rs 2 lakh crore. Sure, the transaction value of the e-rupee, or the digital form of the fiat currency, has increased, but it's driven more by banks doling out allowances to employees than any real market demand.But the reality is that the landscape of money's partial substitutes in India, a digital-payments pioneer, shows little change to the status quo.Tune in.
Lex chats with Harish Natarajan - Practice Manager, Financial Inclusion and Infrastructure, Finance, Competitiveness & Innovation at the World Bank, and Carlos Brandt - The Senior Advisor for Pix at the Central Bank of Brazil. Together they discuss the remarkable success of Pix, Brazil's real-time payment system, which now sees over 6 billion transactions per month and is used by more than 90% of the adult population and 80% of companies. Lex explores how Pix was created by the Central Bank of Brazil with strong public-private collaboration, backed by regulatory authority and supported by a co-creation model with stakeholders. Key to its adoption were a low-cost centralized infrastructure, clear branding, mandatory participation by large banks, and a robust national communication strategy. Globally, Pix is seen as a leading example of fast payment system deployment, driven by the central bank acting as a neutral coordinator and scheme owner. Lex also examines the technical architecture, built in-house by a surprisingly small team of 55–65 people, and how scalable infrastructure and extensibility have enabled rapid growth and innovation. NOTABLE DISCUSSION POINTS: 1. Pix achieved mass adoption through public-private co-creation and legal mandate:Pix now processes over 6 billion transactions per month, with 90% of Brazil's adult population and 80% of businesses actively using it. Its success stems from a strategic legal mandate in 2013 granting the Central Bank regulatory and operational authority over retail payments. The Central Bank then led a co-creation process involving both public and private stakeholders through the Pix Forum, fostering alignment, inclusivity, and strong network effects.2. A lean but powerful team built a nation-scale real-time payments system:The Pix infrastructure was built entirely in-house by a relatively small team, 30-40 people for the technical infrastructure layer and around 25 for the payment scheme layer. It operates 24/7 with real-time settlement and uses centralized infrastructure separate from Brazil's traditional large-value payment rails. This centralized, purpose-built architecture dramatically lowered costs and enabled rapid rollout.3. Strategic communication and mandated participation drove adoption at scale:The Central Bank led a national communication campaign to build trust, establish a strong brand identity, and educate the public. Simultaneously, it mandated major banks (with over 500,000 active accounts) to join Pix, triggering widespread voluntary adoption from smaller PSPs. The rollout included a restricted pilot phase and emphasized user-friendly features like QR codes and aliases to boost convenience and usage from day one.

Today's Headlines: President Trump spent the weekend firing off social media rants, watching FIFA with a celebrity entourage (including Melania and Pam Bondi), and threatening Rosie O'Donnell's citizenship. Behind the scenes, tensions rose within the DOJ as FBI deputy Dan Bongino considered resigning over internal clashes about the Epstein investigation, and new reports revealed Kash Patel's FBI is forcing agents to take polygraphs over disloyalty suspicions. Elsewhere, a deadly shooting in Kentucky left four dead, and two major wildfires destroyed historic structures at the Grand Canyon's North Rim. More flash flood warnings hit already-devastated parts of Texas, where FEMA is under fire for letting a flood-prone summer camp avoid safety requirements. Globally, a Palestinian-American was killed by Israeli settlers, as Israel-Hamas talks remain stalled and airstrikes intensify. Trump threatened more tariffs—including 200% on pharmaceuticals—while hinting at a major Russia-related announcement today. NATO's new chief will visit DC this week, just as the State Department undergoes 15% staff cuts. Meanwhile, House Republicans kick off “Crypto Week” ahead of a key vote on the GENIUS Act.

In this episode I'm talking with Clain Udy author of Rebranding Autism, A Guide to Seeing Strength on the Spectrum. In this touching story Clain talks about his autistic son and his family's desire for him to lead a “normal” life. When something unexpected happened his view changed. From that day forward Clain knew that in order for his son to thrive there had to be something else, something better than what many call “normal.” His unstoppable determination to find answers led him to understand that how we see autism can determine our success.
