In hour 4 of The Drive, Zach and Phil continue to break down the Val Nichushkin trade from earlier today, which sent him to Columbus in exchange for multiple draft picks. We discuss the complicated history of Val's time in Denver, from the addiction problems to being one of the best players on the championship team in 2022. We pivot to the Nuggets as they selected two players last night in the second round of the NBA Draft. Would the Nuggets have been better off selecting Tarris Reed at number 26 in the first round rather than the two players they picked last night? Do the guys trust the Nuggets' co-GMs to lead the team to another championship? Will the financials get in the way of the Nuggets competing at the highest level this season? Will the Nuggets be able to keep Peyton Watson given their financial limitations? Will it come at the cost of losing Cam Johnson or Aaron Gordon? We wrap up the show with DenverSports.com's Aniello Piro joining the show to discuss how Val Nichuskin will be remembered in Denver.

Pace Risk, Sack Fix: Vikings Front Office Shakeup, Sack Problem, and Supplemental Draft Buzz — On Two Old Bloggers, Dave and Darren discuss Vikings GM Nolan Teasley's continued front-office overhaul, including adding former Seahawks pro scout Azzam Kapadia as assistant director of pro scouting and hiring ex-Bears GM Ryan Pace as a football advisor. They debate Pace's mixed Chicago track record and the value of multiple former GMs as sounding boards. They then examine the Vikings' sack problem under Kevin O'Connell (203 sacks from 2022–2025, fifth-most in the NFL; 60 in 2025), citing scheme, pass/run tendencies, QB-attributed sacks, and 2025 offensive line instability (26 different combinations; only 83 snaps with the preferred starting five). They also note possible 2026 improvements via a better run game, coaching changes (Frank Smith and Keith Carter), healthier linemen, and the mobility of Kyler Murray. In “This Week in Vikingsland,” they weigh whether the Vikings should bid in the supplemental draft for QB Brendan Sorsby despite his gambling issues, and discuss the need for veteran edge rusher depth, including rumors of Za'Darius Smith potentially unretiring. 00:00 Cold Open and Teasers 01:20 Welcome and Banter 02:42 Teasley Rebuilds Front Office 05:12 Ryan Pace Hire Debate 08:41 Too Many Voices Question 13:07 Pace Draft Record Breakdown 18:28 Theme Two Sacks Problem 19:54 Why Sacks Keep Happening 21:51 Analytics Data on QB Blame 26:15 2025 Chaos and Fixes 29:18 Run Game Fixes 30:42 Health And Line Cohesion 31:32 Mobile QB Reduces Sacks 33:54 Line Rankings And Depth 36:36 Time To Throw Stats 37:28 Sorsby Supplemental Buzz 40:46 Prospect Traits And Red Flags 44:44 How Supplemental Bidding Works 46:45 Vikings Should Pass 49:14 Edge Rusher Depth Need 51:41 ZaDarius Smith Reunion 54:45 Teasley First Big Move 58:17 Wrap Up And Sign Off Fan With Us!

Ship Recycling Market Update Week 25 2026 | Peace Signed, Brent Drops to $78 & Monsoon Controls Supply

GMS Podcasts

Play Episode Listen Later Jun 22, 2026 13:22


The global ship recycling market has entered a new chapter as the United States and Iran sign an interim peace agreement, reopening the Strait of Hormuz after more than 100 days of closure. In Week 25 of 2026, Brent crude collapsed to approximately USD 78 per barrel, erasing the entire war premium that had carried prices above USD 126 in late April. WTI also eased toward USD 75, while sanctions relief and the restart of halted Gulf oil production shifted market focus from supply disruption to potential oversupply. For the global ship recycling industry, this is a major turning point. The two forces that kept older vessels trading instead of recycling, high bunker costs and strong freight earnings, are now weakening together. The Baltic Dry Index eased to around 2,653 on June 17, while daily Capesize earnings fell to approximately USD 35,162 from the late-May high near USD 49,511. However, the timing remains difficult. Although peace has reopened the sea route and reduced the bunker-cost floor, the Indian subcontinent is now deep in the monsoon season. Bangladesh, India, and Pakistan continue to show demand, financing, and yard appetite, but beaching activity remains limited by weather. This week's episode examines: The interim US-Iran peace agreement and reopening of the Strait of Hormuz Brent crude collapsing toward USD 78 and the evaporation of the war premium Why lower bunker costs could finally release older vessels for recycling The continued cooling of dry bulk freight and Capesize earnings Why the monsoon now controls the beaching calendar across South Asia Bangladesh's stable Taka, steady steel prices, and strong post-monsoon outlook India's Rupee rally, softer Alang steel, and improving macro position Pakistan's firm Rupee, strong steel pricing, and fading Gulf proximity premium Turkey's Lira breaking 46 per dollar and Aliaga's continued EU-regulated niche Why the second half of 2026 may bring the strongest candidate flow since February Key market takeaway: Peace has been signed, the Strait of Hormuz has reopened, Brent has returned near pre-war levels, and the freight premium is cooling. The deferred wave of recycling candidates is now being primed, but the monsoon remains the immediate constraint. The ships are free to move, but the beaches must wait for the rains to ease. Peace is signed. The premium is gone. The ships are moving. But the rains reign.   For full details, vessel rankings, and port positions, download the GMS Weekly on our GMS website or mobile app. Follow GMS on LinkedIn, Facebook, Instagram, and X for daily updates.

Why Ship Recycling Prices Differ by Market | Steel, Ships & Recycling Values Ep. 2

Why do ship recycling prices differ between Bangladesh, Pakistan, India, and Turkey when all markets are driven by steel? In Episode 2 of Steel, Ships, and Recycling Values, Nayeem Noor, VP - Business Development and Communications at GMS, speaks with Jamie Dalzell, Head of the GMS Singapore Office, about why recycling destinations convert steel value into bids differently. The discussion explains how Bangladesh, Pakistan, India, and Turkey each price vessels through their own mix of steel demand, currency, banking support, LC availability, yard appetite, compliance capacity, downstream liquidity, and timing risk. This week's market backdrop shows why regional price spreads matter. Bangladesh continues to show strong demand and workable LC support, but monsoon timing and physical beaching windows remain key constraints. Pakistan remains firm when steel and currency align, while India continues to offer depth, compliance capacity, and flexibility even when it is not the highest headline market. Turkey remains a distinct recycling destination for EU-linked, regulatory, or geography-driven cases. For shipowners, brokers, financiers, traders, and maritime professionals, this episode offers a practical explanation of why the highest headline price is not always the best recycling deal. The right recycling destination depends on the vessel, buyer quality, finance, delivery terms, compliance requirements, and execution risk.

Ship Recycling Market Update Week 24 2026 | Brent Falls Below $90, Hormuz Deal Nears & Monsoon Rules

GMS Podcasts

The war premium in global shipping and energy markets has finally cracked, but the ship recycling market is still waiting for the final signature. In Week 24 of 2026, Brent crude fell sharply toward USD 89 per barrel, its lowest level since March, after President Trump suspended planned military strikes against Iran and signalled that a deal to reopen the Strait of Hormuz could be signed as early as this weekend. Iran is also reported to be moving closer to approval, although no final agreement has yet been confirmed. For the global ship recycling industry, this is a major turning point. The two forces that kept older vessels trading instead of recycling, high bunker costs and strong freight earnings, are now softening at the same time. The Baltic Dry Index eased to around 2,818, while Capesize earnings cooled to approximately USD 40,274 per day after last week's peak near USD 49,511. However, the timing remains difficult. The monsoon has now taken control of the beaching calendar across the Indian subcontinent, limiting near-term recycling activity even as macro conditions begin to improve. This week's episode examines: Brent crude falling toward USD 89 and the cracking of the war premium The possible US-Iran agreement to reopen the Strait of Hormuz The proposed 30-day de-mining timeline for Hormuz Why lower oil prices and softer freight could eventually release older tonnage Why the monsoon now controls beaching activity across South Asia Bangladesh's stable Taka, steady steel prices, and strong Q3 demand outlook India's Rupee recovery, softer Alang steel prices, and improving macro position Pakistan's rising annual CPI, easing monthly inflation, and firm Gadani pricing How a Hormuz reopening may gradually reduce Pakistan's Gulf proximity premium Turkey's inflation pressure, Lira stability, and continued EU-regulated recycling niche Subcontinent recycling prices, vessel supply, and cash buyer sentiment Why the second half of 2026 may look more constructive than the first Key market takeaway: The war premium has cracked, Brent has moved below USD 90, freight has cooled, and currencies across the recycling markets have repaired themselves. But the beaching window is now governed by the monsoon. If the Hormuz agreement is signed and the 30-day de-mining clock begins, older tonnage may eventually face renewed pressure toward recycling, but not immediately. The premium cracks. The pen hovers. The monsoon rules.

Steel is one of the most important drivers of ship recycling values, but recycling offers are not based on steel prices alone. In the first episode of Steel, Ships, and Recycling Values, Nayeem Noor, VP - Business Development and Communications at GMS, speaks with Jamie Dalzell, Head of the GMS Singapore Office, about how recyclers assess steel markets when pricing vessels for recycling. The discussion looks at why plate prices matter, how re-rollable steel is valued, and why local demand, financing, currency, inventories, import pressure, and timing risk all influence the final recycling offer. The episode also explains why strong steel prices do not always lead to more vessels being sold for recycling. Freight markets, trading opportunities, seasonal timing, and owner strategy all play an important role in deciding whether a ship actually comes to market. For shipowners, brokers, financiers, traders, and maritime professionals, this episode offers a practical look at how recycling values are formed and why steel remains central to the global ship recycling market.

Ship Recycling Market Update Week 23 2026 | Hormuz Traffic Returns, Brent Eases & Monsoon Window Closes

GMS Podcasts

Traffic is returning through the Strait of Hormuz, but for the global ship recycling market, the timing has come too late. In Week 23 of 2026, vessel movements through Hormuz improved materially, even though the formal US-Iran framework remains unsigned. Brent crude eased into the USD 95–97 per barrel range as markets priced in de-escalation, while freight markets moved in the opposite direction. The Baltic Dry Index climbed above 3,200, and Capesize earnings touched nearly USD 49,500 per day, keeping older vessels trading rather than heading for recycling. Across the subcontinent, the key issue remains unchanged: demand is present, financing is available, pricing is firm, but tonnage supply remains limited. The pre-monsoon beaching window has now effectively closed, shifting the main constraint from geopolitics to weather. This week's episode examines: • Strait of Hormuz traffic recovery and US-Iran deal uncertainty • Brent crude easing and global energy market reaction • Baltic Dry Index strength and Capesize freight earnings • Why strong freight continues to delay ship recycling supply • Bangladesh ship recycling market stability and Taka performance • Chattogram demand, LC financing, and monsoon impact • Indian Rupee recovery and Alang market conditions • RBI policy measures and India's ship recycling outlook • Pakistan Rupee strength and Gadani pricing leadership • Turkey's Lira stability, inflation pressure, and Aliaga's EU-regulated niche • Subcontinent recycling prices, vessel supply, and cash buyer sentiment • Why the market enters monsoon season with demand intact but supply absent Key market takeaway: The Strait of Hormuz is gradually returning to operation, Brent crude has eased, and currency conditions have improved across parts of the subcontinent. However, dry bulk freight remains strong, older vessels continue trading, and the monsoon has now closed the practical recycling window. The traffic returns. The window is gone.

On this episode of On the Couch, Sigmund Bloom sits down with Patrick Daugherty to dig into one of the most important — and misunderstood — questions in football: Are NFL general managers actually getting better… or are we just grading them on vibes and results. Pat's annual GM rankings spark a wide‑ranging conversation about team‑building, risk‑taking, politics inside front offices, and how fantasy managers can learn from the best (and worst) decision‑makers in the league. From blockbuster trades to quiet roster construction, Bloom and Pat break down what separates the sharp GMs from the ones who are just surviving. This one goes deep — team philosophy, talent evaluation, organizational psychology, and how all of it trickles down to fantasy football strategy.   watch on YouTube -> https://youtube.com/live/uk8W88gMTDQ   ⏱️ Timestamps 00:00 — Is John Schneider coming for Howie Roseman's crown 05:00 — Will the AJ Brown trade go down as a Howie masterstroke 10:09 — Is AJ Brown going to be happy in New England 13:08 — Does losing AJ Brown expose Jalen Hurts 19:13 — Why Monti Ossenfort ranks dead last 27:21 — What we know (and don't know) about the three new NFL GMs 32:06 — Does the Myles Garrett trade redeem the Ty Simpson pick for the Rams 38:29 — Why great NFL and fantasy GMs must take risks 43:40 — Why political GMs might actually be the worst GMs

Ken and Lima take the final calls of the morning as the fan base slowly comes around on the trade, with a caller from Kentucky making the most clear-eyed point of the day: the Browns took a swing on Watson, it did not work, and at least they are trying. Ken agrees in principle but draws the line at forgiveness, saying the swords do not come down on the Watson trade until the day they make the playoffs, and not a moment before. The conversation turns to Andrew Berry's press conference in minutes and Ken lays out exactly what is at stake for him personally: if he gets fired at the end of this season before he gets to draft the quarterback, his entire legacy is the guy who traded for Deshaun Watson and traded away Myles Garrett, and second chances for fired GMs are not guaranteed. Ken closes the show with the stakes as clear as they have ever been: Berry needs to be here to finish what he started, because if he is not, the whole painful exercise was for nothing.

Ship Recycling Market Update Week 22 2026 | US-Iran Deal Struck, Hormuz Reopening, Brent Falls & Monsoon Window Closes

GMS Podcasts

Play Episode Listen Later Jun 1, 2026 7:41


After seven weeks of uncertainty, the global ship recycling market finally received its strongest diplomatic breakthrough yet. In Week 22 of 2026, the United States and Iran reached a tentative agreement to extend the ceasefire and begin reopening the Strait of Hormuz. The announcement triggered a sharp decline in Brent crude oil prices, with Brent falling back toward USD 96-97 per barrel as markets began pricing in the prospect of restored Middle East energy flows. Yet despite the diplomatic progress, the ship recycling sector remains constrained by one critical factor: timing. While the Hormuz reopening narrative gathered momentum, the subcontinent recycling markets entered the final stages of the pre-monsoon season. With Bangladesh, India, and Pakistan approaching monsoon-related operational slowdowns, the long-awaited improvement in market sentiment arrived just as recycling activity faces its seasonal closure. Freight markets also remain supportive for vessel owners. The Baltic Dry Index strengthened above 3,100, Capesize earnings exceeded USD 44,000 per day, and dry bulk freight returns continued encouraging owners to keep older vessels trading rather than recycling them. This week's episode examines: • US-Iran ceasefire extension and Hormuz reopening developments • Brent crude oil decline and energy market reaction • Baltic Dry Index performance and dry bulk freight trends • Capesize and Panamax earnings outlook • Bangladesh ship recycling market conditions and LC financing stability • Indian Rupee recovery and Alang recycling market developments • Pakistan Rupee strength and Gadani pricing trends • Turkey's inflation outlook and Aliaga recycling market activity • Monsoon season impact on ship recycling decisions • Vessel supply shortages and demolition market sentiment • Cash buyer outlook and subcontinent recycling pricing • Global ship recycling market trends for owners, brokers, recyclers, and investors Key market takeaway: The deal the recycling market waited months to see has finally arrived. Oil prices have eased, diplomatic momentum has improved, and the Strait of Hormuz may eventually reopen. However, freight earnings remain elevated, vessel supply remains scarce, and the monsoon season is effectively closing the recycling window across the subcontinent. The passage may finally be opening. The recycling window has already closed.   For full details, vessel rankings, and port positions, download the GMS Weekly on our GMS website or mobile app. Follow GMS on LinkedIn, Facebook, Instagram, and X for daily updates.

Every Dungeon Master hits a wall eventually. The prep feels like a chore. The session you used to look forward to is now the thing you're dreading. The spark that made you fall in love with running games has gone quiet.In this special live panel recorded at FanX 2025, Justin, Tanner, and Cayden sit down in front of a live audience to tackle one of the most real and rarely talked-about challenges behind the screen: DM burnout.This isn't just a conversation about surviving — it's about understanding what burnout actually looks like, why it happens to even the most passionate Game Masters, and how to find your way back to the table with energy and excitement.Here's what the panel digs into:What burnout really looks like — and why it's not always obvious when it's happening to you.The different flavors of burnout — creative, emotional, social, and scheduling exhaustion each hit differently and need different solutions.What causes it — from over-prepping to under-appreciated effort, the panel gets honest about the real culprits.Prevention vs. recovery — because keeping the spark alive looks different than reigniting it after it's gone out.Practical tools and techniques — including leaning on your players, co-DMing, running one-shots, and reconnecting with what first made you love TTRPGs.What NOT to do — the traps that make burnout worse when you're already running on empty.How players can help — and how GMs can ask for support in ways that feel natural rather than vulnerable.Whether you're deep in the weeds right now or just want to make sure you never get there, this episode is for you.This episode is for the DMs who know the real end boss isn't the dragon — it's burnout.

AI in car dealerships is not just a technology topic. It is a retail automotive execution issue.In this Most Valuable Moment from LIVE with Lopes Season 8 Episode 5, Frank J. Lopes and Trent Cannon break down what AI really means for dealer principals, dealership owners, general managers, GSMs, sales managers, BDC managers, internet directors, marketing directors, fixed ops leaders, and anyone operating inside the retail car business.The real question is not whether AI will replace every salesperson, BDC agent, or dealership employee.The real question is what happens when strong dealerships use AI correctly while average stores keep running the same old broken process.Slow lead response.Weak dealership BDC follow-up.No long-term lead handling process.Abandoned digital retailing activity.Poor customer communication.Missed sold customer follow-up.Missed unsold showroom follow-up.Missed equity mining opportunities.Missed service declined work follow-up.Managers still hiding behind “we've always done it this way.”AI will not magically fix bad operators. It will not repair poor leadership. It will not turn lazy follow-up into a real sales process. It will not make a weak BDC strong by itself.But AI can make good operators dangerous.Frank and Trent discuss how automotive AI can help car dealerships move faster, work more opportunities, improve dealership BDC workflow, strengthen internet lead handling, support long-term follow-up, reduce abandoned digital retailing activity, improve customer communication, support fixed operations, and create a better dealership experience.This episode gets into the part of AI that actually matters to operators:How do dealerships use AI without replacing the human side of the business?Where should the BDC spend its time?What follow-up is getting missed every day?How can AI support sold customers, unsold showroom traffic, old leads, equity mining, service declined work, F&I product follow-up, and digital retailing?Why will strong stores benefit faster than weak stores?This is not a robots-replacing-people conversation.This is a dealership management conversation.This is a BDC strategy conversation.This is a lead handling conversation.This is a retail automotive leadership conversation.The best dealerships are not looking at AI as a replacement strategy. They are looking at it as an enhancement strategy.Better speed.Better consistency.Better follow-up.Better customer communication.Better use of the people already inside the store.That is why dealer owners and GMs need to pay attention. AI will not save weak stores, but it can make strong stores much harder to compete with.This Most Valuable Moment covers:AI in car dealershipsAutomotive AIRetail automotive technologyDealership BDC strategyInternet lead handlingLong-term follow-upDigital retailing in car dealershipsAbandoned online shoppersSold customer communicationUnsold showroom follow-upEquity miningService follow-upF&I product follow-upCustomer experienceDealership managementFixed operationsThe future of the car businessWhy strong dealerships may become harder to beatQuestions answered in this episode:How will AI impact car dealerships?Should car dealers be afraid of artificial intelligence?Will AI replace BDC agents or salespeople?How should dealers use AI in the dealership BDC?Can AI improve dealership lead handling?Can AI help with long-term follow-up?Can AI reduce abandoned digital retailing activity?Can AI support equity mining and service follow-up?How should dealer owners and GMs think about AI?What does AI mean for the future of retail automotive?This is the Most Valuable Moment from LIVE with Lopes Season 8 Episode 5 with Trent Cannon, featured on The Get More Frank Podcast.Host: Frank J.

The fantasy world was doing just fine. Wizards were arguing about spell slots. Fighters were polishing swords. Rogues were stealing absolutely everything not nailed down. Then somebody invented firearms. Now the wizard wants an arcane revolver, the artificer is building a rifle powered by dragon crystals, and the fighter has spent twenty minutes explaining why attaching a bayonet to a musket absolutely still counts as melee combat. Progress is inevitable. Chaos is optional. Players will choose chaos every time. Show Notes This episode dives into one of the most divisive and surprisingly fun topics in tabletop RPG design: firearms. We explore what happens when black powder, pistols, muskets, revolvers, and magical weapons enter worlds traditionally ruled by swords and spellbooks. The answer is not simply bigger damage numbers. Firearms change the entire feel of a setting. We dig into how guns influence worldbuilding, tone, and gameplay. A lone flintlock in a low fantasy campaign tells a very different story than enchanted firearms in a magitech world. The conversation expands into how technology reshapes societies, military power, adventuring groups, and even the place of magic itself. The episode also looks at practical considerations for GMs and players. We discuss balancing firearms mechanically, deciding how common they should be, and avoiding the trap of letting realism overwhelm gameplay. Sometimes the important question is not whether firearms belong in fantasy. It is what kind of fantasy world they create. Whether you are building a black powder campaign, introducing fantasy gunslingers, or creating magical firearms powered by spells and crystals, this episode explores ways to make firearms feel intentional and exciting at the table. Key Takeaways Firearms affect setting design as much as combat rules. The rarity and availability of guns heavily influence world tone. Black powder weapons create a very different atmosphere than magitech firearms. Introducing firearms changes warfare, economics, and social structures. Balance should focus on gameplay experience rather than strict realism. Reload mechanics and weapon limitations help preserve design space. Magical firearms create new character options without replacing classic fantasy roles. GMs should establish expectations for firearms early in campaign planning. Different RPG systems support firearms in different ways. Every firearm added to a setting raises bigger questions about technology and progress. Welcome to the RPGBOT Podcast.

$60,000 in 4 days from ONE hotel. That's what Benjamin Gregory pulled off — and he didn't get the job from Google ads, yard signs, or door knocking. He got it from LinkedIn.In this episode I'm breaking down a real commercial pressure washing job from a real student. Benjamin packed his rig, traveled from his home market down to the Carolinas, and walked away with a $60K invoice in 4 days of on-site work. Most pressure washers will go their entire career without seeing a single check like that — and the reason isn't talent or equipment. It's where they're looking for customers.LinkedIn is where hotel general managers, facility managers, property management regional directors, and commercial real estate decision-makers actually live during the work week. They're not on Nextdoor. They're not searching Google for "pressure washing near me."
