Etsy - Layoffs With Better Numbers - Etsy is cutting about 220 jobs, or 12% of its workforce. - Management said the cuts were not primarily about cost savings or AI. ----- CEO Kruti Patel Goyal stated the restructuring aims to simplify the organization, remove management layers, and speed up decision-making to better compete against massive rivals like Amazon, Temu, and TikTok Shop - Q2 revenue was about $668 million and core marketplace sales improved. - Etsy also authorized another $2 billion share buyback. - Comes after selling Depop to eBay for about $1.4 billion. Polysilicon - Tariffs Plus Price Floors - U.S. policy adds a 15% tariff and minimum import prices on polysilicon and solar products. - Goal is to protect domestic production from low-cost foreign competition. - U.S. share of global polysilicon capacity fell from about 50% in 2005 to under 2% in 2024. - First Solar and T1 Energy jumped on the announcement. ---- The same playbook - rinse and repeat Chipotle - Salmonella Returns - Minnesota officials linked a salmonella outbreak to jalapenos served at Chipotle. - Chipotle removed the affected pepper supply and switched growers. - Shares fell roughly 8%-10% as investors remembered the company's earlier food-safety problems. - This is on top of the lettuce situation with Sweetgreen- look at STOCK CHART FOR SG Michael Burry - Calling a Major Top - Michael Burry says the market may be near a "major top." - Warned of the possibility of a 1987-style market drop. - He is short names including Nvidia, Palantir, Tesla and semiconductor stocks. - Main concern is stretched valuations and crowded trades unwinding quickly. - This may be the 100th top he has called since the GFC ---- NVIDIA TURNS GPUs INTO AN ASSET CLASS - Nvidia signed preliminary agreements with Apollo, BlackRock, Blackstone, Brookfield, Goldman Sachs and KKR to mobilize more than $500 billion for AI infrastructure. - The Wall Street firms would create dedicated pools of capital to finance Nvidia-based data centers and compute infrastructure at what Nvidia calls attractive rates for customers. - Jensen Huang: “This is really the first time that technology chips have become an investable asset class.” Nvidia says the compute assets now generate revenue and can increasingly be financed like infrastructure. - Nvidia could backstop as much as 25% of individual investments on a case-by-case basis - potentially up to about $125 billion if applied across the full program. STRATEGIC PETROLEUM RESERVE BREAKS 300 MILLION - The Strategic Petroleum Reserve fell by 6.1 million barrels to 298.7 million barrels for the week ended Aug. 7 - below 300 million for the first time since January 1983. - The SPR started 2026 around 415 million barrels, meaning more than 100 million barrels have already come out this year as releases were used to offset disruptions from the Iran conflict. - The reserve's authorized storage capacity is roughly 714 million barrels, leaving current inventories at about 42% of capacity. - Oil on the rise last week Earnings and such Toyota - Big Buyback, Better Outlook - Toyota raised its annual operating-profit forecast 13%, helped by the weaker yen. - Announced a share buyback worth up to $6.3 billion. - Quarterly operating profit still fell 9%, hurt by China weakness and higher Middle East-related costs. McDonald's - Value Problem - U.S. same-store sales rose just 0.8%, below expectations and well below last year's 2.5% growth. - Management blamed weak execution of value promotions and fewer digital deals. (and probably because everyone is taking weight loss drugs - see above) - Lower-income customer traffic remains a major pressure point. - McDonald's is bringing back more digital offers and loyalty promotions to drive traffic. Eli Lilly - Weight-Loss Machine - Lilly crushed Q2 expectations as Mounjaro and Zepbound drove most of the growth. - Mounjaro sales hit $9.94 billion; Zepbound brought in $4.93 billion. - Raised 2026 revenue guidance to $85-$87 billion. - Verzenio, its major breast-cancer drug, remains one of Lilly's biggest non-obesity products. - Lilly continues widening its lead over Novo Nordisk in the obesity-drug market. Disney - Parks Keep Printing Money - Quarterly adjusted EPS rose 28% to $2.06, beating the $1.86 estimate. - Parks and experiences revenue increased 10% to nearly $10 billion. - Global park attendance grew 4%. - Disney is selling its 50% stake in A+E Networks to Hearst for an estimated $1.2 billion. Oil - OPEC Adds Barrels, Maybe - OPEC+ agreed to raise September production targets by another 188,000 barrels per day. - The increase completes the rollback of a 1.65 million-barrel-per-day supply cut dating back to 2023. (In other words - planned so not a surprise) - Actual supply remains constrained because several producers are already pumping below quota. - Any normalization around the Strait of Hormuz could suddenly make OPEC+'s additional barrels much more important. Berkshire Hathaway - Greg Abel Starts Spending - Q2 operating earnings rose 16% to about $13 billion. - Berkshire bought $23.5 billion of stocks and sold just $3.7 billion - its first quarter as a net stock buyer in 14 quarters. - Bought back $4.5 billion of Berkshire shares, versus only $235 million in Q1. - Cash dropped from roughly $380 billion to $365 billion as Abel starts putting the massive cash pile to work. - Important shift: Buffett is still chairman, but this is one of the clearest signs yet of how Greg Abel may allocate capital differently as CEO. Situational Awareness - Nearly Blows Up, Investors Want Back In - The fund lost 67% in July after leveraged AI bets collapsed and forced a major stock sale to Citadel. - Despite the blowup, Situational Awareness was still up about 80% for 2026 because of huge earlier gains. - Bloomberg says Silicon Valley investors are already asking to put more money into the fund. - Situational Awareness is currently telling prospective investors it is not accepting new capital. - The fund has also continued making large private investments even after the near-collapse. --- Most recent was a $400B ---- There is some talk that Citadel made out like a bandit on the rescue Mercedes AMG - The Car Literally Brands You - Two Mercedes AMG owners filed a class-action lawsuit claiming the metal AMG logo embedded in the seat becomes dangerously hot in the sun. - One driver says he suffered first- and second-degree burns, with a dermatologist describing the injury as "AMG inscribed." - The lawsuit wants Mercedes to cover damages and remove the metal logos from affected vehicles. - Hard to beat this one: pay AMG money and get the logo branded into your back. Europe's Drought - History Starts Popping Out - Extreme drought and low river levels are exposing things that have been underwater or hidden for decades or centuries. - In Serbia, sunken German World War II warships have reappeared in the Danube. - In Britain, dry ground revealed outlines of medieval buildings; mammoth remains and ancient structures have also surfaced elsewhere. - Serious drought story, but visually one of the strangest side effects of the summer. Golden Toilet - $6 Million Flush - The 18-carat gold toilet was ripped out of Blenheim Palace in a five-minute raid and has never been recovered - but there is a conviction. - Prosecutors used phone data, forensic evidence and planning activity to link the gang to the theft. - One defendant had cased the palace beforehand and photographed entry points; another man had already pleaded guilty and admitted helping move the stolen gold. - Prosecutors believe the 98-kilo toilet was quickly cut up or melted down and sold as gold. - So the conviction was based on evidence of the robbery and disposal - not on recovering the actual toilet. Final Follow Up SpaceX - Space Junk Smashes Into the Moon - A dead SpaceX Falcon 9 rocket stage crashed into the moon at about 5,400 mph after drifting through space since January 2025. - The roughly 4-ton, school-bus-size object kicked up a lunar dust plume that astronomers detected from Chile. - The impact was accidental - solar activity and gravity gradually pushed the abandoned rocket stage onto a collision course. - NASA and SpaceX are now discussing ways to prevent future lunar crashes as more hardware heads toward the moon. - NEED Space garbage Trucks - something we have discussed on show for years (see next) Space Garbage Trucks - This Is Becoming a Business - Astroscale is building spacecraft designed to inspect, capture and remove dead satellites and other orbital debris. - Its ADRAS-J mission demonstrated close approach and inspection of a large piece of existing space junk - a key step before actually grabbing and removing debris. - ClearSpace is developing similar debris-removal spacecraft, including missions designed to rendezvous with and capture abandoned rocket hardware. - The business model is basically orbital towing: governments and satellite operators pay to remove dangerous junk or service aging spacecraft. - With tens of thousands of tracked objects already in orbit, "space sanitation" could become a real infrastructure business.

Your Golden Toilet Bowl Can't Buy Your Way Through the Pearly Gates What happens when power, politics, and eternity collide? In this thought provoking Sunday Edition Spotlight, Anthony Corona imagines an extraordinary conversation at the gates of Heaven as Presidents Joe Biden and Donald Trump arrive together to face the same final judgment. Through satire, humor, and spiritual reflection, the story explores themes of leadership, humility, compassion, accountability, and the consequences of the words we choose while wielding influence. At its core, this is not a political endorsement or condemnation of any individual. It is an invitation to consider what truly matters when wealth, fame, power, and public opinion are stripped away. Can success on Earth purchase redemption? Does applause outweigh character? Can a damaged conscience still be restored? Blending wit with moments of genuine introspection, this fictional parable reminds us that history may judge our accomplishments, but our humanity, our compassion, and the way we treat one another may ultimately matter far more.

Not everyone gets to have this kind of behind-the-scenes experience. As a spiritual mentor and intuitive guide to high-net-worth clients, Mellissa Seaman has occasionally been flown on private jets for her work. While she loves the miracle of flying, whether on a commercial airline or a tiny puddle jumper, her first time on a private jet revealed a world most people never get to see.

Her stories are both hilarious and eye-opening, offering a grounded perspective on wealth, privilege, and conscious leadership. She breaks down the three biggest surprises that opened her eyes to how differently the ultra-wealthy travel, and how these luxuries can shift worldview, comfort, and even ecological awareness. In This Episode, You'll Learn: ✅ What flying private actually feels like behind the scenes ✅ How luxury can create (and distort) different lived realities ✅ Why wealth often comes with eco-guilt and why it rarely stops the behavior ✅ The surprising humanity beneath the glamor ✅ How these experiences deepen Mellissa's compassion across economic divides More Resources:

USA Fencing board director wrote opus in support of trans athletes before referee's disqualification of female fencer from tournament over protest A director on the USA Fencing board once published an opus in support of trans athletes — less than two years before the athletic organization disqualified a female fencer from a tournament because she refused to compete against a trans opponent. Damien Lehfeldt, the board's elected at-large director, outlined his staunch position in a long-winded Aug. 30, 2023, blog post, in which he defended the right of trans fencers to compete against women, despite conceding they may have “a...

In 2025, with reporting restrictions lifted, we finally reveal their identities and the criminal past that led them to the toilet.

In this sixth episode, Caroline and Jack bring you the closing speeches from the prosecution and defence lawyers as the golden toilet trial draws to a close. The prosecutor told the court it was impossible to avoid the conclusion all three defendants were knowingly involved in the conspiracy surrounding the theft and sale of the toilet. But the defence barristers argued there was little evidence to support this - and accused police of failing to “flush out” the real culprits. Learn more about your ad choices.

In this fifth episode, Caroline and Jack bring you the evidence of the second defendant, Fred Doe, who is accused of trying to broker a sale for the stolen golden toilet. Fred Doe told the court that he had no idea the gold was stolen and expressed regret for ever getting involved with the “idiot” burglar who was in the gang that smashed their way into Blenheim Palace.

In this fourth episode, Caroline and Jack have more of the evidence from the man on trial for his involvement in the burglary of the solid gold toilet. Michael Jones insisted his visits to Blenheim Palace in the days before were innocent and he was there, not to carry out reconnaissance missions, but because he was interested in the exhibitions.

In this third episode, Caroline and Jack have the evidence of one of the defendants in the case. Michael Jones told the jury he was not carrying out reconnaissance missions at Blenheim Palace in the days before the theft of the solid gold toilet. He said he was visiting the exhibitions because he found the art intriguing. We also heard that the artist who created the loo was behind a piece of art which featured a banana duck-taped to a wall. It sold for over £5million. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit podcastchoices.com/adchoices

The guys open the podcast discussing what's been going on in their lives for the past two weeks. Then it's on to the nights beers and an opening chat about the hiring of a new CSO. They discuss his background and how he technically won't be available until he's done with his current team next spring. This spills into talk about a new manager, and how the decision will likely be made by the current front office. They talk about the front four of the Loons attack next, and offer some tidbits about Bongi and Rey. MN Soccer History is up next, and they end the podcast about a missing toilet made of gold.

Today we're taking a visit to Blenhiem Palace, a magnificent country house located in Oxfordshire, England. It was built as a gift for John Churchill, first Duke of Marlborough, from Queen Anne and the British Nation, in recognition of his victory at the Battle of Blenheim in 1704, during the War of Spanish succession. In this episode we learn why Blenheim Palace took two decades to complete, how the queen and her bestie fell out, and (most importantly) how to steal a toilet!

Joe & Jacques (and our friend Julie) headed over to the mecca of comedy rooms inside Chine's restaurants in the Merrimac Valley (China Blossom N. Andover MA) to see last weeks guest Lauren Sims host an amazing line up. Biff SADLY wasn't part of the field trip or this recording. We chat Jacques breaking thru the glass ceiling of Lowell comedy and doing the cable access show The Golden Toilet … and going to a reverse ambush mic to see friend James Hamilton do what he thought was a “real” booked show. Joe chats seeing the famed Blue Man Group for first time (thanks to his oldest kid pulling some strings!) And updates us on … OUR happy places. The NEW-Seum 2.0 Jacques goes from having zero sports kids to having two sports kids and his oldest son learning fast how everything Jacques worried about with organized sports (the politics, the pettiness …) SUCKS. BUT … at least POS Aaron Rodgers seasons sucks more. Anyone see lost stealth fighter pentagon lost … anyone NOT see Family Values 36 yr old grandma Q'anon Hand-job McGee at Beetlejuice play?

If it quacks like a toilet and walks like a toilet.. it's a toilet. Nobody wants to be a vessel for dishonorable use. Yet, this is often what we see reflected in the doctrine and actions of ourselves and those around us. Sean breaks down what it means to be a vessel for honorable use and the means that are used to get there.
