Un podcast evidente… que no hemos hecho. ¿Por qué? ¡Porque es inabarcable! Pero se me ha ocurrido una idea: Vamos a hacer un repaso a la historia de la moto a través de hitos, mitos, curiosidades y hechos históricos… Y sí, ya en 1885 los alemanes presentaron su Reitwagen, en español “carro de montar”, de la cual existe una réplica, con motor de combustión entonces llamado de “Ciclo Otto” con 0,5 CV y una endiablado velocidad punta de 18 km/h. Siempre lo digo, el concepto de velocidad en este año en el que me encuentro, finales del Siglo XIX, y el vuestro en el futuro 2025, no tiene nada que ver. El progreso de la motocicleta fue rápido y muy “loco”. El francés Georges Gauthier, en 1902, refinó la motocicleta, construyendo una con el motor encerrado, una plataforma para los pies y que era más limpia y práctica. En el futuro se conocerá como Scooter, pero en el momento de su invención se llamó primero “Moto-sillón”; porque era eso, un sillón motorizado, y más tarde “motoneta” nombre que aún se usa en algunos lugares de América. Hablamos de América, concretamente de Norteamérica. Y es que solo un año más tarde, ya estamos en 1903, ¡como pasa el tiempo!, nace en Milwaukee, Wisconsin, EE.UU. de Norteamérica, la marca Harley Davidson. Nace en un famoso cobertizo, pero es una de las marcas con más historia y personalidad que ha llegado muy viva hasta nuestros días. Para poder competir con los automóviles que ya comenzaban a ser más asequibles las motos pasan de dos a tres ruedas. No, no te imagines triciclos como los de ahora, me refiero al invento de los “side-cars”, un carito de una rueda que se fija a un lateral de la moto, al izquierdo en lo países que circulan por la derecha y al derecho en los que países que circulan por la izquierda. Era una forma barata y rápida de multiplicar por dos la capacidad de la moto… aunque fuese a costa de dividir por dos sus prestaciones y de una conducción que era muy delicada. Hay “sidecars” que se acoplan a cualquier moto, pero hay motos que nacen ya con el “Sidecar” y que incluso llevan tracción en esa rueda, como sería el caso, en el futuro 1940, de las BMW R75 especialmente las que serían utilizadas por el ejército alemán. Sigue corriendo el tiempo y entre 1920 y 1930 se produce un cambio. La moto que había nacido como una forma de transporte barata, sencilla y asequible, con espíritu utilitario, va tomando una deriva hacia una máquina para el ocio y el viaje de placer. Y si hay una moto que representa ese cambio es la BMW R32 de 1923, con detalles tan modernos como su motor bóxer y su transmisión por cardan. Una moto que era mucho más rápida y fiable que sus contemporáneas. Y entre esas motos de alta gama, casi de lujo, en 1936 aparece la reina, la que llamamos en estos años “El Rolls Royce de las motos”, la Brough Superior SS100, nada menos que la moto utilizada por el “héroe” Lawrence de Arabia que ha llegado a comprar 8. ¿Quién nos iba a decir que tras una guerra Mundial llegará rápidamente otra? Solo fueron necesarios 20 años, 9 meses y 21 días... se ve que no habíamos escarmentado. No sé cuál fue peor, pero sí que la moto fue más protagonista en la Segunda que en la Primera, gracias no solo a las BMW alemanas, sino también a sus “copias” rusas la Ural y a las Harley Davidson de los norteamericanos. En la postguerra la moto resurge como una opción muy interesante, pero en una doble vía como ya hemos comentado: Por un lado, se refuerza como vehículo practico, barato y sobre todo urbano, granas a Honda en Japón y a Vespa en Europa, pero por otro lado nace la “cultura motera”, aficionados que buscan las motos grandes por sus prestaciones y, sobre todo, sensaciones. La marca Honda nace en Japón y en 1958 lanza un scooter diseñado por el propio Sohichiro Honda y su socio, Takeo Fujisawa que se convierte en todo un éxito. Era una moto práctica, fiable, bien hecha y que mejoraba año tras año… Cuando estaba en el futuro, en el año 2025, comprobé que ya van fabricadas más de ¡100 millones de unidades!... no me extraña. Antes, en Europa, otro genio había tenido una idea genial: Aprovechando lo que había, entre otras cosas las ruedas de los trenes de aterrizaje de los aviones ya inservibles, creo un Scooter que hizo escuela… La “abeja” en italiano, Vespa, una moto que no solo era una alternativa al transporte, sino que, gracias a su calidad, y por qué no decirlo, también a su aparición en la película “Vacaciones en Roma” nada menos que con Audrey Hepburn de “paquete” y Gregory Peck a los mandos. Volvemos al momento actual. Y vemos que en 1960 Honda lanzó una moto que cambia las reglas del juego: la Honda CB750. Hasta ese momento las motos eran rudas, incluso sucias, poco fiables. La CB era una moto suave, incluso dulce, con mandos de mantequilla, silenciosa, rápida y muy bonita.

In this episode of Movie Torture the guys talk about how MTD is still missing so they willingly subject themselves to Harley Davidson and the Marlboro Man—a film so drenched in denim, leather, and 90s angst, it could singlehandedly raise your cholesterol. With Mickey Rourke brooding like a biker philosopher and Don Johnson smirking his way through existential shootouts, the film serves up a plot that's equal parts bromance, betrayal, and budget-busting nonsense. The hosts dive deep into the chaos—dodging bad dialogue like stray bullets—and unpack themes of loyalty, absurd action, and why naming your movie after two brands doesn't automatically make it cool. From there, they spiral into a hilarious rating game, comparing cinematic highs and lows like The Matrix (a masterpiece) and its sequels (a tax on fans). With plenty of sarcastic banter, IMDb guesswork, and nostalgia-fueled hot takes, the episode transforms bad cinema into great entertainment. By the end, it's clear: sometimes, the best part of a movie is talking about how much it hurt—and laughing about it with friends who feel the same.Checkout the new Hopecast website:https://thehopecastnetwork.com/Follow Movie Torture here:https://www.instagram.com/movietorturepod/Buy Merch here:https://www.bonfire.com/store/the-hopecast-network-swag/This show is brought to you by The Hopecast Networkhttps://www.instagram.com/hopecastnetwork/

Send us a textI wanted to start the show today with a disclaimer. I do not and never have condoned criminal behavior. I was a cop for 25 years, and my heart is with the men and women who enforce the law and bring criminals to justice. That being said, I wanted to bring you, the listener/viewer, a different perspective. One from an unapologetic outlaw living out the last chapters of his life (who knows, maybe he will live to a 100). I think it's good to see both sides of the coin. I may not agree with everything he says or stands for, but we can sit down and have a civilized conversation, something that is desperately missing in today's society, I think.  So, my guest on today's show George Christie, has spent some time in prison and was the president of the Ventura Chapter of the Hells Angels Motorcycle Club from 1978 to 2011. In 2011 he walked away from the Hells Angels and resigned his membership. A short time later, the club turned their backs on him and considered him in ‘bad standing,' which is a kick in the gut for someone who dedicated his life to the outlaw club. It's kind of like it never happened. George's life is like something out of a movie. He has gone to war with rival bike gangs like the Outlaws and Mongols and has had at least two contracts out to kill him. He was in the hot seat on the news show 60 Minutes, where he was grilled by Mike Wallace.  He spent a year in solitary confinement and also carried the Olympic torch for the 1984 games in Los Angeles and had a blowup with the Kennedys. One thing is for sure: George is not boring! Please enjoy part one of my interview with George Christie.In today's episode we discuss:·      Lessons learned from coming from an immigrant family.·      Joining the Marines and later working for the Department of Defense. ·      Deciding to devote his life to the Hells Angels. ·      The process and initiation for becoming a Hells Angel.·      How George was elected club president in a short amount of time. ·      Being the spokesman for the Hells Angels.·      There is nothing more important to a member of the Hells Angels than the club. Everything else takes a back seat. How did he function like that? There is work, spirituality, marriage, kids, and friends. They all play second fiddle if you're an Angel.·      Carrying the Olympic torch. Feuding with the Kennedys/Shriver's and winning! All of this and more on today's episode of the Cops and Writers podcast.Ride over to George's website to learn more about him and his books!Check out the new Cops and Writers YouTube channel!Check out my newest book, The Good Collar (Michael Quinn Vigilante Justice Series Book 1)!!!!!Enjoy the Cops and Writers book series.Please visit the Cops and Writers website.What would you do if you lost the one you loved the most?

With Rocky's Harley Davidson ceasing operations on June 30, 2025 we spoke with Michelle Auger - Senior Policy Analyst - with the Canadian Federation of Independent Business about some of the challenges businesses in Canada are facing.

In 2021, Harley-Davidson made the controversial switch from their robust hydraulic clutch system to the antiquated cable clutch system. As a police motorcycle officer and instructor, I can confidently say that the hydraulic system was superior in terms of consistency, reliability, and ease of use. However, if you're stuck with a cable clutch system on your Harley, don't worry—there are ways to make it great again. We walk you through everything you need to know about upgrading your cable clutch system with high-quality Fat Baggers & PSR Lever components, ensuring better control, comfort, and overall riding experience. All the products discussed are available in the Law Abiding Biker™ store, along with detailed installation videos to guide you through the process. SUPPORT US AND SHOP IN THE OFFICIAL LAW ABIDING BIKER STORE The stock clutch system on a Harley-Davidson is designed to accommodate a broad range of riders. However, it's not tailored for individual preferences, which can hinder optimal control and comfort. One major flaw of the stock cable clutch system is its plastic adjuster, prone to breaking and leaving riders stranded. Additionally, it lacks the ability for fine-tuning the clutch lever's friction zone, which is critical for precise motorcycle control. Upgrading to metal components and adding adjustability not only enhances durability but also allows you to customize the clutch system to your specific needs. CHECK OUT OUR HUNDREDS OF FREE HELPFUL VIDEOS ON OUR YOUTUBE CHANNEL AND SUBSCRIBE! 1. Start with the Fat Baggers Easy Clutch Adjuster The first step is replacing the stock plastic adjuster with the Fat Baggers Easy Clutch Adjuster. This metal piece allows for precise adjustments, enabling you to position the clutch lever's friction zone exactly where you want it. Installation is straightforward and can be done in your garage with basic tools. 2. Upgrade to the Aluminum Clutch Cable Housing The next enhancement involves replacing the bottom plastic housing with a durable Fat Baggers aluminum one. This not only removes another weak plastic component but also improves the overall aesthetics and functionality of your clutch system. 3. Install the Upper Clutch Cable with Built-in Adjuster For ultimate convenience, consider installing the Fat Baggers Upper Clutch Cable with an integrated adjuster near the clutch lever. This allows you to make adjustments while seated on the bike, eliminating the need to dismount repeatedly. This cable is available in black or braided finishes for a custom look. 4. Enhance with PSR Adjustable Levers Finally, take your customization to the next level with PSR Adjustable Levers. These levers offer unparalleled adjustability and a sleek design, ensuring maximum comfort and control. With options for length, angle, and detailed customization, they're a must-have addition. NEW FREE VIDEO RELEASED: Installing A Wind Splitter Windshield On A 2024 & Newer Harley | And A Review!

A visionary custom motorcycle builder and entrepreneur, Brian Klock's passion for two wheels started early in Emery, South Dakota, where he grew up around his family's gas station. His creativity first caught national attention in 1990 with a purple FXR that impressed even Harley-Davidson legend Willie G. Davidson.

Sometimes, the boys say something that even they can't use as an episode title. (Actually, they quite often do exactly that but this week's example is particularly spicy and the game is to see if you can spot it. There's no prize beyond the glory of being right but really, isn't that the greatest prize of all?) Of course, it's not the only offensive remark from episode 164 of the Greatest Motorcycling Podcast in the Universe as there is also Borrie's Poem, Dear Bitches, Observations and Simone Flatterson's Man Boob Care and Grid Girl Critique (among other regular segments). Then there's the casual offensiveness that is the hallmark of the show. But there's also serious analysis (honestly) and the occasional accidental insight into what remains the most glorious and gladiatorial of all the sporting pursuits: riding motorcycles at unfeasible speeds while trying to avoid a bunch of other similarly inflicted lunatics. For money. It's everything life can and should be and it's all just the click of a button away from assaulting your ears.

Send us a textWelcome back for the conclusion of my interview with Professor, bestselling Author, and Retired ATF Special Agent Jay Dobyns. If you're enjoying this episode, you'll love my interview with ATF Special Agent Ken Croke from episode 120, where he chats about his deep undercover mission taking down the outlaw motorcycle gang, The Pagans. I thought it would be interesting to get a different perspective on these clubs by interviewing the former president of the Ventura Hells Angels, George Christie. That interview will go live next Sunday!Jay Dobyns spent over two decades as a federal agent embedded in the dark heart of America's violent crime, participating in more than five hundred undercover missions targeting gun runners, narcotics traffickers, explosives manufacturers, murder-for-hire schemes, and vicious gangs.Jay's most infamous case—a landmark infiltration of the Hells Angels motorcycle gang—changed the face of undercover work forever, earning him international recognition.Jay's story is more than headlines and danger. It's about the cost of service to others, the toll on identity, family, and mental health, and how to rise from it stronger.  In today's episode we discuss:·      Attempting to be a good dad and father, while you were undercover. How did you and your family deal with all of that?  ·      Sunny Barger, who he was and Jay's relationship with him.·      What kind of bike the ATF gave Jay. Why only Harleys or maybe Indians?·      Mafia on two wheels?. ·      What is the filthy few?·      What happened at Laughlin?·      His informant, Pops, and Black Biscuit.·      Deep undercover, the effects on him and his family.

Send us a textEver tried battling a fly the size of a quarter while attempting to taste craft beer? Welcome to our world. This episode takes an unexpected turn as we're invaded by what might be the largest house fly in recorded history, transforming our beer tasting into an impromptu insect safari.Between swats and near-misses, we manage to properly evaluate two exceptional brews. First up is Biker's Brewhouse Blue Balls – a blueberry ale (4.7% ABV, 10 IBU) from Youngstown, Ohio that delivers subtle fruit notes reminiscent of blueberry cereal. Located beside a Harley Davidson store, this brewery captures the spirit of the road in every can. The verdict? A solid 8.5/10 that would score even higher if served ice-cold.Our second contender comes from Distill Brewery in Normal, Illinois – a place so beautiful it looks like they host weddings between brewing sessions. Their Torbus double dry-hopped hazy IPA (7.4% ABV, 25 IBU) showcases citra and mosaic hops in an award-winning formula. The juicy initial flavor gives way to an intensely dry finish that divides opinions but earns respect. We crown it with a 9/10, just shy of perfection due to that desert-like aftermath on the palate.Between tastings, we share stories from our recent golf triumph (including a legitimate birdie!), weekend shenanigans at a wedding shower, and the peculiar challenges of maintaining a camper. There's also an unexpected detour into the horrifying world of truck driver bathroom habits that you absolutely didn't ask for but now can't unhear.Join us for craft beer adventures, birthday celebrations, and the ongoing saga of man versus fly. And remember – if someone with a car held together by bungee cords can get a date, there's hope for us all.Support the showwww.anotherreasontodrink.com

Today, we are excited to speak with Wendy Roy, a beader and entrepreneur from the White Earth Nation. She mentors other artists and also teaches at White Earth Tribal and Community College. Wendy learned beading from her grandmother, who shared the trick to knowing which bead colors go together. Her grandma would pour beads on a tray to see which beads grouped together and wanted to be friends with each other. She also taught her granddaughter that every bead you sew is a prayer for the person who will wear the object. For Wendy, beading is not just a way to share her culture and make a living but also a form of healing. She talks about dealing with depression and coming back from a recent wrist injury that kept her from her beadwork. In her free time, Wendy likes to read books, spend time with family and ride Harley Davidsons.

Christophe est motard. Il roule en Harley. A l'occasion d'une sortie dominicale, en novembre 2024, il roule sur un pavé saillant qui vient percer le réservoir à huile.

Big innovation doesn't always mean big headlines. Sometimes it looks like improving how 5.5 million students get to school every day.In this episode of Building Better, Brandon Bartneck talks with Sean McCormack, Chief Information Officer at First Student. They dive into the challenges of routing 45,000 school buses, the role of AI and EVs in improving safety and sustainability, and why “user-centric design” means something very different when your user is a bus driver in the dark at 6am.Sean brings a refreshing perspective on product development and leadership. He talks about real-world agile development—not the buzzword version—and what it means to test, learn, and iterate when people's lives are at stake. They also explore the difference between flashy products and meaningful work, and how the most rewarding engineering problems often live in overlooked corners of our world.About Sean McCormackSean McCormack is CIO at First Student, where he leads digital strategy, technical operations, and innovation.

Dave Roper has been racing motorcycles for more than half a century. The New England native is probably best known for campaigning exotic vintage machinery under the Robert Iannucci-led Team Obsolete banner. He's fast, too. In fact, Roper won more than half of the races he entered on Iannucci's 1959 Matchless G50, including, famously, the 1984 Senior Historic TT at the Isle of Man.“We lived relatively close to Lime Rock Park in northwest Connecticut,” Roper tells “Driven to Ride” host Mark Long. “We used to go up there and watch the sports cars. That's what I thought I wanted to do.” Once he found motorcycling, however, Roper was immediately hooked. “Motorcycles are more accessible,” he explains. “They're cheaper, they're smaller, they're easier to work on.”Now in his 70s, Roper has been the subject of many editorial projects, including a documentary film, “Motorcycle Man.” “I don't feel like I'm all that special as a racer,” he says. “I've had some success. I've arranged my life so I can continue doing it; I'm not married, I don't have any children. I love the social aspect of it, traveling and seeing people who you share a very special thing with.” Connect with Us:Website: www.driventoridepodcast.comInstagram: www.Instagram.com/driventoridepodcastFacebook: www.facebook.com/driventorideEmail:hello@driventoridepodcast.com

To be honest, it sometimes feels like genuine madness descends in the studio when our three anti heroes arrive for recording. But then, like this week, even their disorganised journey through life looks structured compared to what the actual racing dishes up. After another mad and unpredictable weekend it's a mad and unpredictable episode of the Greatest Motorcycling Podcast In The Universe. Borrie has a poem but he's trying a new style (Banjo Patterson...that's bold big man. Very bold), Freido is Asianing again so his connection is rubbish and the Moto PG Race Team are in studio for the entire episode. It's as crazy as it sounds and it all starts as soon as you press play. IMPORTANT: Below you will find a list of our sponsors. We expect you to support them by buying stuff from them.

Is KTM okay or not? A year of scary news about financials for the massive Austrian maker of KTM, Husqvarna and GasGas motorcycles continues, with rumors of a make it or break it payment looming this week. It appears KTM's business partner Bajaj might have gotten the loan needed to restart the KTM assembly lines and keep the company going.  Jason Weigandt gives the latest on that, then chats with Frank White of long-time American dirt bike manufacturer ATK. Yes, the ATK brand is still around, now as a parts supplier, and it has partnered with Harley-Davidson on projects before.  Frank White doesn't like what he sees over at H-D these days, with the company reporting a loss of over $200 million in the final quarter of 2024. White and others would like to see the CEO of Harley ousted, and a revamp of the type of products the company produces.  While a recent vote will keep the current CEO in place for at least this year, these are still times of stress at two of the biggest motorcycle companies in the world. The Racer X Exhaust podcast is presented by Yoshimura, Insta360 Cameras and OnTrack School.

Story of the Week (DR):Berkshire board names Greg Abel as CEO, Buffett to remain chairWarren Buffett says he'll propose Greg Abel take over as Berkshire Hathaway CEO at year-endWarren Buffett makes surprise announcement: He's stepping down as Berkshire Hathaway CEOOpenAI backs off push to become for-profit companyIn a nutshell, with help from its chatbot: “OpenAI has restructured into a hybrid model with a nonprofit parent company, OpenAI Inc., and a for-profit subsidiary now called a Public Benefit Corporation (PBC). This shift allows for investment while keeping a focus on its mission of developing AGI for the benefit of humanity. The change responds to previous criticism about reducing nonprofit oversight.”OpenAI's nonprofit mission fades further into the rearviewSam Altman urges lawmakers against regulations that could ‘slow down' U.S. in AI race against ChinaKohl's CEO Fired After Investigation Finds 'Highly Unusual' Business Deal with Former Romantic PartnerKohl's CEO Ashley Buchanan was fired after an internal investigation revealed he violated the company's conflict-of-interest policies. The probe found that Buchanan directed business to a former romantic partner, Chandra Holt, who is the CEO of Beyond Inc. and founder of Incredibrew. Holt secured a multimillion-dollar consulting deal with Kohl's under unusually favorable terms, which Buchanan failed to disclose.As a result, Buchanan was dismissed for cause, forfeiting equity awards and required to repay a portion of his $2.5 million signing bonus.This marks the third CEO departure at Kohl's in just three years, highlighting ongoing leadership instability amid declining sales.Proxy Firms Split on Harley-Davidson Board Shake-Up MMGlass Lewis= Withhold; ISS = What's happening at Harley exactly?We have a fun twist at the proxy cage match between Harley Davidson and H Partners, who are 9% shareholders and have started a withhold vote campaign against long-tenured directors Jochen Zeitz, Thomas Linebarger, and Sara Levinson: Glass Lewis says “withhold” but ISS says “support”?Through lackluster reasoning based on hunches and not performance analytics, ISS revealed, without satire, that "[T]here are compelling reasons to believe that as a group [the targeted directors] still have a perspective that can be valuable” and, in discussing the candidacy of departing CEO Jochen Zeitz: “[I]t appears that his time in the role has been more positive than negative, which makes it hard to argue that his vote on a successor is worthless.”Testimony in House Hearing: “Exposing the Proxy Advisory Cartel: How ISS & Glass Lewis Influence Markets”A 2015 study found that 25 percent of institutional investors vote “indiscriminately” with ISS [1].In 2016, a study estimated that a negative recommendation from ISS leads to a 25-percentage point reduction in voting support for say-on-pay proposals [2].A 2018 study demonstrated that a negative recommendation from ISS was associated with a reduction in support of 17 percentage points for equity-plan proposals, 18 points for uncontested director elections, and 27 points for say-on-pay [3].In 2021, a study examining “robo-voting”—the practice of fund managers voting in lockstep with the recommendations of ISS—identified 114 financial institutions managing $5 trillion in assets that automated their votes in a manner aligned with ISS recommendations 99.5% of the time [4].A 2022 study provided further evidence that institutional investors are highly sensitive to an opposing recommendation from a proxy advisory firm. Opposition from ISS was associated with a 51 percent difference in institutional voting support compared with only a 2 percent difference among retail investors [5].During the 12 months ending June 30, 2024, negative recommendations from the two proxy advisory firms were associated with (1) a 17-percentage point difference in support for directors in uncontested elections at the S&P 500 (96.9% with the firms' support vs. 79.7% without); (2) a 35-percentage point gap for say-on-pay proposals (92.8% vs. 58.0%); and (3) a 36-percentage point difference for shareholder proposals (42.4% vs. 6.6%)Why Leo XIV?

Harley-Davidson CEO Jochen Zeitz to Retire in 2025Jochen Zeitz, CEO of Harley-Davidson, announced plans to retire in 2025 after five years at the helm. Zeitz introduced the "Hardwire" strategy in 2021, focusing on high-margin products and modernizing the brand to appeal to younger riders. Despite these efforts, the company forecasts flat to declining profits for 2025, citing tempered consumer spending on big-ticket items. Harley's stock has risen over 11% since Zeitz took charge, though it has underperformed compared to the S&P 500's 77% climb during the same period.​Reuters2. Harley-Davidson Board Member Resigns Over 'Grave Concerns'Board member Jared Dourdeville resigned, expressing "grave concerns" about the company's future. In his resignation letter, he cited "severe underperformance" by leadership, chaotic turnover, declining sales, and a lack of products to attract new customers.

Harley-Davidson in Crisis? In this episode of GarageCast, we unpack the growing tension between Harley-Davidson's board and CEO Jochen Zeitz. With Q1 numbers showing a -1.4% average dealer net profit and rising inventory losses, the stakes are high. We break down what's behind the turmoil, how H Partners is shaking things up, and why the relationship between dealers and the Motor Company needs a reset. With the May 14 shareholder meeting on the horizon, now's the time to tune in.

DAMION1Kohl's CEO Fired for Funneling Business to Romantic Partner 10Kohl's boss Ashley Buchanan tried to funnel business to a romantic partner and lost his job. It wasn't the first time their personal and professional lives had crossed.Kohl's fired Buchanan on Thursday after it discovered he had instructed the retailer to enter into a “highly unusual” business deal involving a woman with whom he has a romantic relationship, according to people familiar with the situation. The pair currently live together in an upscale golf community in the suburbs of Dallas.Buchanan met the woman, Chandra Holt, when they were both working at Walmart several years ago, the people said. His divorce proceedings show the two had a romantic relationship while he was the CEO of Michaels. The arts-and-crafts chain also tried to hire Holt during his tenure.A Kohl's board investigation by outside lawyers found that Buchanan violated the company's code of conduct in two instances with a vendor with whom he had a personal relationship and whom it didn't name, according to a regulatory filing. The filing said he directed the retailer to conduct business with a vendor founded by this person “on highly unusual terms,” and he caused the company to enter into a multimillion-dollar consulting agreement, where that person was part of the consulting team.On Thursday, Kohl's appointed Chairman Michael Bender as its interim CEO. He becomes the fourth CEO in three years at the department-store chain, which has been struggling with slumping sales.Nominating Committee:John E. Schlifske* (2011; 6%)Michael J. Bender (2019; 18%)Robbin Mitchell (2021; 7%)Adrianne Shapira (2016; 6%)Even CEOs sometimes get the 'you're fired' treatment 11Great, nobody understands corporate governanceMeta exec apologizes to conservative activist Robby StarbuckJoel Kaplan, Meta's chief global affairs officer, has issued a public apology to conservative influencer Robby Starbuck after Starbuck filed a lawsuit alleging that Meta's artificial intelligence chatbot produced responses containing false and defamatory information about him. “Robby — I watched your video — this is unacceptable. This is clearly not how our AI should operate,” Kaplan wrote on X, which is one of Meta's competitors. He referred to a 20-minute video in which Starbuck laid out his claims, including that Meta's AI falsely associated him with the Jan. 6 Capitol riot and the QAnon conspiracy theory.“We're sorry for the results it shared about you and that the fix we put in place didn't address the underlying problem,” Kaplan continued. “I'm working now with our product team to understand how this happened and explore potential solutions.”Bob Monks, fierce champion of shareholders against what he saw as boardroom failings 0An American pioneer of investor activism and better corporate governance.Monks emerged as a doughty champion of shareholders against what he saw as increasingly self-serving and complacent boardroom behaviourIn 1985 he founded Institutional Shareholder Services, which advises funds that own shares in multiple companies how best to exercise their voting power. He also helped create Lens, an activist investment fund, and GMI Ratings, a scrutineer of corporate behaviour which claimed to have downgraded BP before the Deepwater Horizon disaster, the insurance giant AIG before the 2008 financial crisis and News Corp before the phone-hacking scandal.His most celebrated campaign, in 1991, was an attempt to become a director of the underperforming retail and financial conglomerate Sears Roebuck, for which he ran a full-page ad in the Wall Street Journal depicting the existing Sears board as “non-performing assets”. Though his candidacy was rejected, many of his proposals for rationalisation were adopted, and he was able to declare: “Sears has been changed.”This low-profile CEO is the highest-paid in America with a $101 million paycheck that beat out Starbucks, Microsoft, and Apple chiefs 10Jim Anderson, a low-profile executive of Pennsylvania-based Coherent, which produces equipment for networks and lasersHere's what the dopey reporting missed:An originally announced golden hello equity award of $48M that magically morphed into $91M come proxy time.48% NO on Say on PayToo large Pay Committee: 6 members, led by Shaker Sadasivam, who was NOT up reelection this year. Also includes Mike Dreyer (22% NO), former COO of Silicon Valley BankEuronext rebrands ESG in drive to help European defence firms 10In a statement renaming ESG - the acronym given to Environmental, Social and Governance-driven investing - as Energy, Security and Geostrategy, Euronext's CEO and Chairman Stephane Boujnah said it was responding to a "new geopolitical order"."European aerospace and defence companies have expressed the urgent need to invest heavily in their innovation and production capacities to guarantee Europe's strategic autonomy for the next decade," Euronext said in the statement.Among the measures, Euronext said it would revisit the methodologies for ESG indexes to limit the exclusions currently placed on defence companies.OpenAI, facing pressure, announces its nonprofit will stay in control after allOpenAI announced a smaller-scale change to its famously complex structure. Remember that it was founded as a nonprofit. But in 2019, it set up a for-profit subsidiary to start raising money from investors to finance its eye-wateringly expensive A.I. research. Then last year, the company moved to turn itself into a for-profit entity in which the nonprofit held a stake but didn't have control.Now, OpenAI plans to turn its for-profit subsidiary into a public benefit corporation, which would still be controlled by the nonprofit, though the size of its stake remains undetermined. (Got all that?) Sam Altman, its C.E.O., said yesterday that the revised plan still gives his start-up “a more understandable structure to do the things that a company like us has to do.”The AI Industry Has a Huge Problem: the Smarter Its AI Gets, the More It's HallucinatingZuckerberg Says in Response to Loneliness Epidemic, He Will Create Most of Your Friends Using Artificial IntelligenceIn an interview with podcaster Dwarkesh Patel this week, Zuckerberg asserted that more people should be connecting with chatbots on a social level — because, in a striking line of argumentation, they don't have enough real-life friends.When asked if AI chatbots can help fight the loneliness epidemic, the billionaire painted a dystopian vision of a future in which we spend more time talking to AIs than flesh-and-blood humans."There's the stat that I always think is crazy, the average American, I think, has fewer than three friends," Zuckerberg told Patel. "And the average person has demand for meaningfully more, I think it's like 15 friends or something, right?""The average person wants more connectivity, connection, than they have," he concluded, hinting at the possibility that the discrepancy could be filled with virtual friends.Tesla Is Extremely Upset About Reporting That Its Board Has Been Looking Into Replacing Elon MuskLeading Independent Proxy Advisory Firm ISS Recommends Harley-Davidson Shareholders Vote "FOR ALL" of Harley-Davidson's Highly Qualified Director Nominees 10Targeted DirectorsCEO/Chair Zeitz (2007, 30%): who has already stepped down as CEOLead Director Norman Thomas Linebarger (2008, 13%): who is not independentSara Levinson (1996, 20%): the longest-tenured director Matt: HARD HITTING ANALYSIS“[I]t appears that his time in the role has been more positive than negative, which makes it hard to argue that his vote on a successor is worthless.”"[T]here are compelling reasons to believe that as a group [the targeted directors] still have a perspective that can be valuable.”"[I]t appears that the board initiated the [CEO search] process promptly…”, Target CEO's pay slashed by a whopping 45% after his disastrous mishandling of DEI 5Patrick Kennedy of The Minnesota Star Tribune used Total Realized Pay: down from $18.1M last year mostly because of a reduction in vested stock, $5.6M down from $13.6M.

This is clearly not how our AI should operate.”

May 2025 might go down as the most pivotal month of Donald Trump's second presidency. The post-Liberation Day disruption gave him room to play the chaos card — but that only lasts so long. Now it's time to deliver. And according to what the White House is telling Congress behind closed doors, a lot is in motion. Sixty countries are either actively negotiating trade terms or exchanging paperwork with the administration. Congress is being told these deals won't require their approval, which Congress, for the record, does not agree with. But this is Trump we're talking about — when has he ever waited for a vote?Still, the big names you'd expect — China, Canada, Mexico — aren't in the mix. China's radio silent, Mexico and Canada are being folded into existing USMCA renegotiations. That leaves three countries reportedly close to a deal: the United Kingdom, Australia, and most importantly, India. India isn't just geopolitically important — it's the key to rewriting how America competes with China. A deal there could shift the entire narrative.Why India Matters More Than You ThinkIndia is the crown jewel of this effort. There's personal chemistry between Trump and Modi, which helps. JD Vance just visited India, and his family ties only reinforce the good vibes. But this isn't just a soft power thing. India offers cheap manufacturing, which Trump badly needs to offset Chinese trade disruption. If you're going to tell a story about reindustrializing America and cutting reliance on Beijing, India is where you start.There's also the intellectual property angle. India doesn't have the same IP hang-ups as China, which means Trump could insert protections into this deal and claim it as a model for future negotiations — including, eventually, with China. It's the kind of pivot that's both symbolic and real. Add in niche export wins — like bourbon or Harley-Davidsons, which have demand in India but face big trade hurdles — and suddenly you've got tangible proof of progress.Fast Deals, Reversible WinsHere's the catch: none of these deals are expected to go through Congress. They're handshake deals. That means they can be reversed at any moment — by Trump himself. And that's kind of the point. Trump wants to touch every single part of the negotiation. No detail moves without his approval. That gives him the power to declare victory on anything, even if the actual text doesn't amount to much.So the real question isn't whether Trump can get a deal. It's whether he can get one that's meaningful — and fast. Because right now, the administration needs wins. Not headlines. Not vibes. Wins. The stock market is shaky, the trade war with China is frozen, and the White House knows it's currently heading into the midterms with a record that still feels unsettled. India might be the win they've been waiting for. But if it doesn't land soon, the window to define this presidency might close a lot faster than anyone expects.Chapters00:00:00 - Intro00:00:15 - Tariff Negotiations00:10:11 - Worst State Party Draft, part one00:41:37 - Update00:42:36 - Mike Waltz Goes to the U.N.00:44:48 - Alien Enemies Act Ruling00:48:55 - Ukraine Mineral Deal00:51:55 - Worst State Party Draft, part two01:34:53 - Wrap-up This is a public episode.
