Welcome to The Times of Israel's Daily Briefing, your 20-minute audio update on what's happening in Israel, the Middle East and the Jewish world. Editor David Horovitz joins host Amanda Borschel-Dan for today's episode. US President Donald Trump on Tuesday denied that Israel dragged the US into war with Iran, insisting that if anything, the opposite could be true and that he felt Iran was going to attack first. These remarks come as politicians and media influencers on both sides of the US aisle condemn "Israel's war" and point their fingers at the Jewish state. In the first half of the program, we take a deep dive into Iran's greater existential threat to the Mideast -- and the world at large. Which nations appear to start internalizing that the extremist Islamist nation may actually do what it threatens it will? In the second half, we talk about the opportunity afforded at this time for Iranians to rise up and change their regime. It would be, posits Horovitz, more possible to see some form of "total victory" against the terror regime, as opposed to wiping out Hezbollah in Lebanon and Hamas in Gaza.

This week's guest is Doug C. Brown, CEO of CEO Sales Strategies and a leading authority on building predictable, measurable, and scalable sales growth.     After a career as a top salesperson, including serving as president of sales and training for peak performance coach Tony Robbins, Doug is now advising CEOs on how to rethink their approach to sales.   Among the companies Doug and his team have advised are Procter & Gamble, Enterprise Rent-A-Car, and Embassy Suites. Doug challenges the belief that charisma, closing tricks, or motivational hype drive sales success. Conversational selling, he explains, builds trust faster than persuasion-based tactics. Doug has spent three decades finding hidden profits for founder-led companies. Most companies can quickly achieve a 20-30% improvement in operating profits by following his recommendations. For business owners, CEOs, and entrepreneurs, this episode provides a clear framework for turning sales into a reliable engine for valuation, cash flow, and sustainable growth.   Monday Morning Radio is hosted by the father-son duo of Dean and Maxwell Rotbart.

SPEAKERS Speaker 2, Evan Nappen, Teddy Nappen Evan Nappen 00:16 I’m Evan Nappen. Teddy Nappen 00:18 And I’m Teddy Nappen. Evan Nappen 00:20 And welcome to Gun Lawyer. So, we have some exciting things coming in the future here. I want to make sure the listeners are well aware. In the Supreme Court, we have a case coming up that is going to look at the prohibitor for firearm possession concerning marijuana use, if you’re a user of marijuana. And the case is U.S. versus Hemani. This is very interesting, because it is widely believed that the Court is going to strike down the gun ban for marijuana users. Regardless of how you feel about marijuana use, I’m looking forward to seeing this opinion, because it may be useful in knocking down other gun disqualifiers. Because, folks, gun disqualifiers, such as the gun ban for marijuana use, is an area of exploitation by the gun rights oppressors. Evan Nappen 01:38 So, if they can’t just get a flat out gun ban through, which they try to do all the time, if they can piece meal gun bans to various classes of individuals, then they get the job done that way. That’s why you see the ever expanding list of persons who they try to get disqualified from being able to exercise their Second Amendment rights. And this case has, I believe, potentially very far reaching implications as to subverting that anti-gun rights, that gun rights oppression tactic. So, we want to look at it at as more than just the marijuana. It will be fascinating to see it be a victory, because we have parties in support of this ban going away as diverse as, on the same side now, the ACLU and the NRA. Both. The ACLU is in favor of getting rid of the marijuana user gun ban, because it is, of course, beneficial to in their view, I’m sure, legalization of marijuana, which is something that they would be in support. The NRA is in favor of it going away, because it is consistent with The NRA’s position of supporting Second Amendment rights. So, this has created the classic strange bedfellows situation. (https://www.marijuanamoment.net/aclu-attorney-confident-supreme-court-will-strike-down-gun-ban-for-marijuana-users-after-oral-arguments-next-week/ ) Page – 2 – of 11 Evan Nappen 03:28 But ultimately, what we see coming from it should be a victory for gun rights. And I believe and hope it will be even further reaching than simply addressing the marijuana question. It’s going to be, I believe, very helpful in fighting other disqualifications. Remember, New Jersey is one of the states that tries to always have an expansive list of what disqualifies a person from being able to exercise their Second Amendment rights. They love to create disenfranchisements of our rights because they are rights oppressors, and this tactic, hopefully, will be taking a hit here. So, we’ll keep you informed about the progress and what occurs under the Hemani decision. Teddy Nappen 04:30 I will say, just from the ACLU, just to be clear, they are heavily backed by the Democrat for their super PACs. I’m just saying. Like that is the, and I can’t wait to see all the individuals of the ACLU all out in mass as they’re about to help win a pro-gun victory as well. Yeah. Evan Nappen 04:55 I guess they’re looking at it more as a pro-marijuana victory and ending prejudice toward marijuana users. But whatever their motivation may be, we are going to be consistent in our support for Second Amendment rights. Getting rid of disqualifiers is getting rid of disqualifiers that are disenfranchisements to our Second Amendment rights. So, hey, at least they’re on the right side on this one, and maybe we can get them to continue to see the light on other disqualifiers. Such as restoration of rights for felons and such, right? I mean, this is something you would think they would be in favor of, as well, for restoration of rights. You paid your dues. You served your time. And if you’re not a violent felon, why are you disenfranchised of your rights? I mean, even violent felons, when you get right down to it. I mean, there’s, I missed that in the Second Amendment, where it says we have a right to keep and bear arms, unless you’re a felon, you know, or any of these exemptions. They aren’t there. So, to what degree we tolerate them, to what degree we may think they’re even valuable, I don’t know, but we need to. I’d rather be seeing us pull back on every type of ban and maximize freedom and maximize our Second Amendment rights. Evan Nappen 06:31 Also, in regards to maximizing our rights, there is a really interesting I just love this. I love this. There is an attempt, now, a very shrewd attempt on the pro-rights side to create the ability to get around, yes, a loophole, folks. Because you know what loopholes are. Loopholes are freedom finding a way. And this. Teddy Nappen 07:08 I thought it was a hole in a Castle. Evan Nappen 07:10 Yeah. Right, exactly. Loopholes were the hole in the castle that you would fire your arrows from, because you would still be protected. You could still fire through those, those square, rectangular hole. They’re the loopholes. So, that’s why they’re called that. But, anyway. The key loophole here is in the Hughes Amendment. What there’s an attempt to do, particularly in West Virginia, who has taken the lead here with a bill in West Virginia, which is SB 1071. This is right from AmmoLand, by the way. Page – 3 – of 11 (https://www.ammoland.com/2026/02/contact-chairman-willis-now-sb1071-could-restore-machine-gun-rights-in-west-virginia-if-it-gets-a-hearing/) It could restore access to modern machine guns. That’s right. Evan Nappen 08:00 What they’re doing, what they’re attempting to do is a bill that will create a state run Office of Public Defense within the West Virginia State Police. To procure and sell modern, select-fire machine guns directly to qualified, law-abiding citizens. That’s right. You know how some states have State liquor stores. This will become the state machine gun store. That’s right. It can operate via the Hughes Amendment. Now, the Hughes Amendment was the law back in ’86 that prohibited the, I mean, actually the Hughes Amendment prohibited the new, the sale of new manufacture of machine guns. Okay? So, that created this situation we have now where it’s legal for a citizen to obey the NFA and acquire a machine gun and pay the $200 tax. But the problem is no new machine guns could be put into registration, you see. And that created this essentially, artificially, ridiculously high, crazy prices to own full auto. So, this bill takes the Hughes Amendment and essentially flips the script on the Hughes Amendment by stating that, and this is under Title 18 922(o), that the Hughes Amendment. Here’s, the key loophole language. “. . . does not apply with respect to a transfer to or by, or possession by or under the authority of, a State or any department or political subdivision thereof.” Evan Nappen 10:20 So, in other words, the bill will create a State agency that purchases machine guns and transfers them by quote, right in the law, “by or under the authority of”, the State of West Virginia. The transfers are therefore fully compliant with federal law and critically exempt from the National Firearms Act $200 transfer tax because they’re government facilitated. It’s brilliant. It’s brilliant. It’ll make it so that qualified persons, any adult, who can legally possess firearms under federal and state law, they’d undergo a background check at state police, state police troop headquarters. The office would, where possible, prioritize West Virginia manufacturers, operate distribution points using existing facilities, and issue official state certificates of transfer. Subsequent transfers between qualified citizens would require a simple $275 re-transfer fee through the office, which is waived for heirs. A $250 surcharge per gun plus a modest administrative fee capped at 50 bucks, would flow to the new Public Defense Fund to cover costs, generating revenue for the state without raising taxes. Evan Nappen 11:48 And it was GOA (Gun Owners of America) that drafted this bill. This is really cool. And now I think Kansas is putting a bill forward, and I’m sure we’ll see other pro-gun states moving to create this. This way we can gut the Hughes Amendment and open up the market for new full auto. And by doing that, they’ll become even more commonly owned and become an even greater argument for the Second Amendment and their protection. Eventually, with enough exploitation of loopholes, laws themselves that created the original ban become useless and in fact, go away. We’ve seen this happen. We’ve seen this happen. For example, when it came to NFA Trusts, to purchase NFA, you had to get, at one point, what was called a chief law enforcement officer to sign off. And if your chief didn’t sign off on that, you could not appeal it. You were just dead in the water and could not acquire NFA. Then along comes the idea of setting up a trust where trusts do not require a chief law enforcement to sign off. So, everyone started doing NFA Trusts to acquire NFA, because it avoided the Chiefs sign off. And Page – 4 – of 11 because of that, there were about 10,000 trusts at ATF on NFA. So many just got around it that they finally just repealed the rule and said, guess what? You don’t need to have your chief law enforcement approve it. They just have to get notice of it. But they got rid of the sign off. Why? The loophole defeated it. Evan Nappen 13:50 We see that even going on with switchblades. We’ve seen how there’s been a huge expansion in knife rights based on the ability to work the loopholes for interstate sale and for state sales to be independent. And how the federal prohibition was simply affecting very specific transactions under federal law. To the point where the federal government, in trying to uphold the federal switchblade law, said, as one of their justifications, well, the law isn’t even enforced anymore. That’s right. Why? Loopholes! Loopholes. Freedom finding a way. And so this is exciting to see this taking place on machine guns. Finally going at the NFA. Not shying away from taking on the big stuff. Not letting them get away with claiming that any firearm is somehow intrinsically evil, wrong or bad. We’re finally fighting back with offense. Offense for once. Not just totally on the defense. Evan Nappen 15:07 Speaking of which, you may encounter a new group called “Bridging the Divide”. (https://bridgethedividenow.org/wp-content/uploads/2026/02/Brief-Policy-Outline.pdf) Bridging the Divide on Firearm Policy. Oh yeah, they’re claiming that there’s some bipartisan, that they have taken pro-gun folks and anti-gun and uniting them on principles that everybody believes in. They’re claiming to do this. And here’s their wonderful policies. Lo and behold, when you look closely at this so-called, you know, “Bridging the Divide”, which is, you know, bridging the gap, which is more of laying a trap, my friends. Laying a trap. What you see are their policies that they’re claiming is, you know, they have this bipartisan, so to speak. This is pro-gun and anti-gun right oppressors. Gun rights oppressors and gun rights people. Evan Nappen 16:08 And of course, here’s their policies. They have eight of them, eight of them. This so-called “Bridging the Divide.” One, Prohibiting Factors for Firearm Purchase and Possession. This is right from their “Firearm Policy Outline.” They want to prohibit gun possession by those convicted of violent crime at the misdemeanor level while removing state restrictions on those non-violent felonies. So, they want to expand prohibitions to misdemeanors. Claiming, of course, non-violent felonies, right? Yeah. And then remove prohibition of gun purchases by persons who use marijuana. Well, yeah, guess what? The Court’s already going to kill that. So, they’re throwing this in. They want to, essentially, what they’re looking to do is expand prohibitions to misdemeanors. Who’s kidding who? Come on. Give me a break. Evan Nappen 17:04 Two, Background Checks. Create state level background checks for private sales. Oh, so, in other words, Universal Background Checks, and they want to impose it state by state. More of that. So, end private sales. But they want to have “logical exemptions”? Well, it’s the same, so-called logical exemptions. Let’s just instead of logical, we’ll call it “narrow”, narrow exemptions. No. Private sales should remain private sales. It is more of an intrusion, more of oppression, on our gun rights. How about three? What’s the third thing? Extreme Risk Protection. Oh, seriously? Red flag. We have seen, Page – 5 – of 11 experienced, and are currently experiencing the unbelievable denial of due process that takes place from that garbage. Evan Nappen 17:55 Four, Dealer Registration and Gun Trafficking. They want to focus on the small number of dealers from whom the majority of traced crime guns originate. Oh, really? Well, guess what? What creates those statistics? Anytime they’re run – when guns are seized. And if you’re seizing guns the way New Jersey does, at the drop of a hat and those guns are run, that raises dealer numbers as quoting “crime guns”, even though they’re not crime guns. It is absolutely a flawed basis, and they want to focus on that. Five, Child Firearm Access Prevention. Oh, lock up your safety. That’s what that’s called. Lock up your safety to protect the children. Here we go again. Six, Firearm Suicide Prevention. Ah. In states where murder rates are low, well, let’s go at suicide. Anything we can do to go at the guns, right? And what happens with suicide prevention? Oh, well, that’s the wellness check. You know what’s going on in New Jersey with wellness checks? Anybody calls on anybody, and the police come. They take you away. They take your guns. They hold you for about three days to see if you’re okay. And even though you’re fine, now we got to fight to get your rights back. Fight to get your guns back. There’s a million ways to kill yourself, folks. Focusing on the gun isn’t the answer. Focus on actual causes. But no, it’s just an excuse. Teddy Nappen 19:34 I think the biggest issue with this whole concept of “Bridging the Divide” is take a step back and let us, let us be on equal terms. Here’s the problem, they cannot define what an assault firearm is. They are. Evan Nappen 19:50 Wait, wait, Teddy. I haven’t even gotten to that yet. I haven’t gotten to that. Teddy Nappen 19:54 All right. Evan Nappen 19:54 Number seven, Firearm Injury Prevention Education. They want to tie public health to firearm injuries. Why? Because that goes to healthcare so they can regulate it. Get it regulated back through the health, federal health agencies. Get it back to the CDC. Get them back on it. Cranking out anti-gun nonsense. That’s the game. Eight, Community Violence Intervention. Oh, that gets funding to who? Anti-gun groups. That’s what it’s about. Evan Nappen 20:33 So, we’re looking at these policies and then who’s on it? Well, their board is chock full, chock full of all former and bunch of all anti-gun rights folks. Then they sprinkle in a few that are supposedly pro-gun. So, who’s one of them? Rob Pincus. Rob Pincus is on there, proudly on there. They have listed him as a gun rights advocate. Except here’s a little article from Lee Williams back in March 29, 2021, from thegunwriter.com. (https://thegunwriter.substack.com/p/huh-rob-pincus-supports-expanded?utm_source=publication-search) It says, “Huh? Rob Pincus calls for expanded background checks, gun control and then says he didn’t.” Oh, really? Interesting. You can read that article and see. Page – 6 – of 11 The people they’re getting on board. There’s no major player there that is truly an advocate of our gun rights that I could find, and plenty that aren’t. Evan Nappen 21:30 Nowhere in their policy does it say repeal assault firearm bans, repeal large capacity magazine bans, repeal sensitive place prohibitions, or enact national reciprocity. All the things that we’re fighting for, for our rights. No. All it is is more, more, more. Just a subterfuge of more bans, more back doors to taking away rights. I didn’t see a damn thing here that expands our rights. Nothing. It’s just take, take, take. And package it as some kind of compromise. Their compromise is always us giving up our rights. Forget it, folks. Just forget it. Evan Nappen 22:18 And finally, let me point out, right from The Trace, right from The Trace. Sent out in an email blast, and I just want to read you this from The Trace. (https://mailchi.mp/thetrace/inside-the-loosely-regulated-world-of-gun-manufacturing-4869976?e=a13774efb8) This is fascinating. “Since the Trump administration snatched. . . ” This is The Trace. Snatched. They think of the Mel Brooks. You know, sees snatched, right? But anyway. “Since the Trump administration snatched funding from gun violence prevention . . .” Oh, in other words, let’s decode that. Since Trump took away all the money going to gun rights oppression groups, “. . . the field’s practitioners have had to confront an uncertain future.” Oh, they’re no longer getting the money from the Government. Huh. “Without federal dollars, state and local governments will have to decide whether to pick up the tab. It’s far from a sure thing. Gun violence intervention programs have long had to fight to prove the value of their work. The problem, however, is that it’s difficult to measure. Studying gun violence is expensive, and the nature of violence makes it a uniquely challenging subject to pull apart.” In other words, to propagandize into an anti-gun policy, to take away our rights. “And while gun violence research has seen a resurgence in recent years, the Trump administration cut funding for that field, too.” Yeah, isn’t that cute? I love it. “. . . meaning the available evidence for these programs could grow slimmer.” Evan Nappen 23:46 So folks, The Trace is bitching and moaning about losing their money, and who took it from them? President Trump. And it’s about time. There’s no reason our tax dollars need to go to oppression of our gun rights, and it’s the Trump administration that ended this funding. Keep that in mind. Teddy Nappen 24:10 Just to kind of going back to the whole issue. Whenever the Left try to present themselves like no, no, we need to find these common sense issues. Okay. Let’s define our terms, because the Left does not see the Second Amendment as a right. We know this because the Left wing nut case of a judge, Jackson went and broke down her entire descent of Bruen, describing how it is not a right. It’s a privilege. Arguing that when we deal with gun cases, you have to consider the victims of gun violence rather than looking to the law and the Constitution. That is where they’re coming from. They’re coming from the stupidity and suicidal empathy when they say they’re bridging the gap. That is their argument. Page – 7 – of 11 Evan Nappen 25:01 Just don’t fall for it. Don’t fall for it. But here’s something that you would, that you would like to do, something that you should do, something that you would enjoy doing. And that is going to WeShoot.

Teddy, what do you have for us today in Press Checks? Page – 8 – of 11 Teddy Nappen 29:50 Well, as you know, Press Checks are always free, and I just want to preface this on this one. Where you see in the news media, they’ve been pushing the whole Epstein thing. All right? They’ve been trying to push that. And of course, the Left ended up destroying themselves, as they’ve lost multiple power players who have been implicated in the whole, in the whole surroundings that it comes with the Epstein files being released. And one of the individuals who, by the way, this individual had close ties to Jeffrey Epstein since, like, the early days, Michael Bloomberg. You know, maybe it was because he had a, you know, big gulp in his hand, and that’s why, you know, he’s like, Oh, how dare you. But, yeah. Teddy Nappen 30:41 So, we go to AmmoLand, where this was a wonderful article written up by Alan Gottlieb. (https://www.ammoland.com/2026/02/ccrkba-demands-bloomberg-come-clean-about-epstein-relationship/) Regarding the fact that now we are demanding that all the anti-gun groups, including Everytown, including all of his multi anti gun right the gun rights oppressors groups cut ties with Michael Bloomberg. You know, the money. And there was, I actually went. And funny enough, anyone can do this. You can go on to the Epstein files on the government website, and they have the entire files library. You can type in word searches. So, you type in “Michael Bloomberg”. I went and read through the different documents on it. Now, to preface this, there was no showing of wrongdoing in what was discovered by the fact he was. However, he was invited with Michael Bloomberg, George Stephanopoulos, Eric Schmidt, all these individuals, to a cocktail party with Jeffrey Epstein to watch The Imitation Game. You know, that movie about Alan Turing where he broke the German Enigma. Okay. Bear in mind, this is 2015. Jeffrey Epstein had already been convicted of the first initial charges back in 2000. Evan Nappen 32:05 He was a felon, you know. So, hey, they love to make a point that they shouldn’t have guns. Epstein kept trying and trying and trying to get his rights back so he could get guns. Yet, here he is with the king of anti-gun funding, Bloomturd. Teddy Nappen 32:25 Yeah. Evan Nappen 32:26 What’s that all about? Teddy Nappen 32:27 There was also a letter. Now, again, there was no direct correspondence with Michael Bloomberg. However, there was a letter from Maxwell, Jillian’s mother, basically inviting him to attend a premiere, apparently, this was a movie, Power of Good. I’ve never heard of this one. But this very clearly shows that there was direct information going back and forth. There was also, it seemed to be, there was a massive invitation, and Jeffrey Epstein was trying to create this almost investor group. I want to tell you. Like he wanted to make this online new media. He was naming these board of directors, one of which was Michael Bloomberg, the Rothschild, Lee Rothschild, Alan Goodman. So, various individuals. He Page – 9 – of 11 seemed to be almost like a financial advisor or a bank roller for Jeffrey Epstein. Again, there’s no showing of wrongdoing, but it’s just, clearly, he had a relationship with him. Even highlighted to the articles where, in 2011 the Palm Beach Daily News, Epstein’s address book included Michael Bloomberg. In 2013, there were multiple pictures taken with Bloomberg and Maxwell together having book parties at the Four Seasons restaurant in New York City, where I guess they were reading gender queer, but also the level. Evan Nappen 33:51 Well, the way they brought in the Clintons to the committee, they need to bring Bloomberg in. I mean, you know, this is. The Left kept pushing and pushing and pushing about the Epstein files. Hoping against hope, that they could somehow get President Trump on this, when, in reality, what we’re seeing is it blowing up in the Left’s face, aren’t we? Teddy Nappen 34:12 Yeah. Also, here’s a really big one. Epstein was invited to a Bloomberg hosted fundraiser for Plaskett. Congresswoman Plaskett. You know, the woman who took direct funding from Jeffrey Epstein, actually got donation money. So, not only was he hosting the dinner, cordially inviting Epstein to come on down. Even writing a letter. Please join our host. Michael Bloomberg. Dear Jeffrey Epstein, please join our host, Michael Bloomberg, to the dinner. So, very clearly he was running in these circles. There’s a very clear tie relationship. Again, no showing of wrongdoing. There wasn’t a direct correspondence with him in the emails. And if you actually go through a lot of the emails, he would email news articles. That’s why you know Bloomberg News. And he would email them to others. So, that did also come up. It just shows the very clear ties. This is the one that really sticks out to me. Documents release revealed he was interested in gun politics and Bloomberg’s work. They don’t show direct donations to EveryTown. However, in 2013 there’s an email soliciting Epstein for a donation to American for Responsible Solutions, which is run by Gabby, Gabby Giffords, who later became Giffords. Evan Nappen 35:34 That’s right. But all they care about with Epstein is Trump. And how does that all relate? Is Trump in the Epstein files, Teddy? Teddy Nappen 35:46 Oh, very much. Yes, yes, Trump is in the Epstein files. Okay, I’ve got to tell this to everyone here. The black pillars, all those out there, we do not have all the information. We know that for a fact. Okay? Has it been mishandled? Absolutely. Pam Bondi should resign. Fall on her sword. Because she has damaged the administration on Trump for the mishandling with the stupid binder gate, all the stupidity of, oh, I have the client list on my desk. That was a lie. And the whole situation there. However, if you actually look at the timeline, you can go see the articles. See the full breakdown of it for Donald Trump. Teddy Nappen 36:24 Here’s the timeline, 2004 to 2005, there was reported abuse by a 14-year-old girl by Epstein. Then Trump immediately ended the relation with Jeffrey Epstein. Banned him from Mar a Lago. In 2008, Epstein was convicted with the help of Donald Trump, who cooperated with the victims of Jeffrey Epstein’s lawyer, who fully deposed himself to the lawyers. As opposed to all the other people that are Page – 10 – of 11 implicated, who just stayed away. He actually went in to help the victims. Imagine that. And going in next 2000, after Maxwell is convicted as well, where she trafficked to Epstein. Also in 2019, he’s later arrested again. Guess who’s President in 2019? Donald Trump. He was arrested for sex who invested arrested Epstein for sex trafficking, and then he’s later dead in 2019. So, not only does it exonerate, where, after he was convicted, Trump broke off all relationships with Epstein. He helped get Jeffrey Epstein. That is all that they have on Donald Trump when it comes to Jeffrey Epstein. Teddy Nappen 37:32 All the fake news, all the fake and you know why he said hoax? He wasn’t saying the Jeffrey Epstein whole pedo ring was a hoax? No, he is saying hoax, as in talking about the Dems whole plot to directly connect Trump to the pedophile ring. That is their plot. That was the hoax. Was it misspoken? Yes, Trump fires from the hip. Sue him. That’s how it goes. But actually looking at the facts of what came down, this is what he should have said. Under four years of Biden, not one committee was formed to go at the Epstein files, to go after the Epstein files. The Dems didn’t even want to touch it, which, by the way, all the people that were running in Epstein circles, Schumer, all the, all the heavy donators, Bill Gates, all these individuals are running in Michael Bloomberg, running heavily donations, including Jeffrey Epstein, who heavily donated to the Democrats. So, it’s the level of insanity that goes into it. Teddy Nappen 38:37 By the way, for everyone to remember. Did you know? Did you also know the fact that all of a sudden, the victims who never spoke out during the four years under Biden are now taking Super Bowl ads saying, release more files. Okay, what happened to we have our list. We’re making our list. Just say it. Are you worried about defamation? Musk said he’ll pay for defamation. And good luck as trying to go after women of victims of sexual abuse. I’m sure a go fund me will be immediately formed and covered. So, what are you waiting on? Oh, that’s right, these are just political cudgels for you to abuse. Okay? That is a fact, and that’s what I’m saying to the victims who, all of a sudden, will not name names. So, that it’s one of the big things, like, very clearly, it’s being used as a political tool. They don’t actually want to release the names. Evan Nappen 39:28 Well, I think it’s interesting that it’s come around to Mr. Bloomberg, and that has major effect in terms of funding of further gun rights oppression. He needs to explain the way they’re looking at it. Forced it to be opened up. Hey, guess what? You’re there. You need to explain it now. At least do that. Teddy Nappen 39:52 Also this. Evan Nappen 39:53 There you go. Teddy Nappen 39:54 Proof in concept. Peter Mandelson, who was directly connected to Jeffrey Epstein. He was Keir Starmer’s Cabinet Minister, who just recently resigned. He resigned in shame. So, the proof is in the Page – 11 – of 11 proof is, in fact, that this has the effect. If we could break up Bloomberg from EveryTown. I mean, there is their money. They have nothing aside from. Evan Nappen 40:17 Well, they’re not getting funding anymore from the Government. Yeah, from USAID killed all that. Yeah, so that’s good. Well, let me tell you, Teddy, about this week’s GOFU. That is a Gun Owner Fuck Up, where you learn about expensive mistakes that others have made so that you don’t make them. Now this week’s GOFU that I want to talk about, might even be considered a future GOFU. But it applies still today. If West Virginia, Kansas, or any of these places end up creating State machine gun stores, if you will, which I believe they will, and this ends up taking off, make sure that you do NOT, as a non-resident of those states, acquire a machine gun from those states and then, no less, bring it to New Jersey. In other words, the GOFU, in the big picture, is you have to be cognizant of your jurisdiction and what you’re doing in your jurisdiction, and when you’re in another jurisdiction, what you can and can’t do. Evan Nappen 41:34 We see the jurisdictional problem arise all the time. Whether it’s in carrying a gun where you’re allowed to carry in one state and not in another, whether it’s purchase or possession of a firearm in any given state versus another, people bringing guns or accessories or other things that were legal in one place and illegal in another. The burden is on you to know this. I am constantly seeing cases where people make that very critical error. So, the GOFU, in a general term, my friends, is make sure you know your jurisdictions laws and do not inadvertently violate them because you are in another jurisdiction, and you are coming into this other jurisdiction, this is where the trouble can begin. It can be quite serious. So, be very cognizant of this when dealing with guns. Evan Nappen 42:40 This is Evan Nappen and Teddy Nappen reminding you that gun laws don’t protect honest citizens from criminals. They protect criminals from honest citizens.

In this episode, we listen to a mother’s words of angst, as depicted in Sangam Literary work, Aganaanooru 189, penned by Kayamanaar. Set in the ‘Paalai’ or ‘Drylands landscape’, the verse echoes the immeasurable pain in losing something precious. பசும் பழப் பலவின் கானம் வெம்பி,விசும்பு கண் அழிய, வேனில் நீடி,கயம் கண் அற்ற கல் ஓங்கு வைப்பின்நாறு உயிர் மடப் பிடி தழைஇ, வேறு நாட்டுவிழவுப் படர் மள்ளரின் முழவு எடுத்து உயரி,களிறு அதர்ப்படுத்த கல் உயர் கவாஅன்வெவ் வரை அத்தம் சுட்டி, பையென,வயலை அம் பிணையல் வார்ந்த கவர்வுற,திதலை அல்குல் குறுமகள் அவனொடுசென்று பிறள் ஆகிய அளவை, என்றும்படர் மலி எவ்வமொடு மாதிரம் துழைஇ,மனை மருண்டு இருந்த என்னினும், நனை மகிழ்நன்னராளர் கூடு கொள் இன் இயம்தேர் ஊர் தெருவில் ததும்பும்ஊர் இழந்தன்று, தன் வீழ்வு உறு பொருளே. In this trip to the drylands, we get to hear a mother say these words, at a time when her daughter had left their home and eloped away with the man: “The forest, which used to have fresh fruits, hanging from the jackfruit tree, is parched dry. With nothing to cover the skies, the summer sun scorches. In those stony spaces, where the ponds have lost their cover of water, a male elephant embraces its sighing, naive mate, and walks on stony slopes of highlands, akin to warriors carrying their drums, seeking to attend festivities in a faraway country. Daring to go to such a formidable place, slowly walks my young girl with spotted waist, with ‘vayalai' vines covering her thighs, along with him. She has become a stranger to us. Still, more than me, who is filled with suffering for all time, after searching in all directions, and arriving confused to this home, this town, which is brimming with the sweet music of the good people, delighting in toddy, in the roads with the ceaseless sound of chariots, has lost a much adored treasure!” Let’s follow along in the trail of the daughter through the drylands. Mother starts by visualising the path the lady walks, an arid scrub jungle with dried-up jackfruit trees, scorching sun, a place where elephants tread the stony spaces. Describing that the lady had decided to walk such a path with the man, mother talks about how the lady had become a stranger to them. At this time, the suffering of being apart from her daughter torments mother after her fruitless search. Even in that moment of pain, she looks around at the town, renowned for its joyous celebrations and ceaseless sound of chariots plying on their roads, and declares that the town had indeed lost its most precious treasure. One can empathise with mother recollecting a time of loss, when all the joy and wealth of the world seems to vanish in a single moment, and all that can be seen by the mind’s eye are the parched drylands all around. Hoping with someone’s care and love, those barren trees that the eyes see will bloom again!

On deck: (3:41) It's an interesting time in sports as there's a few things to discuss, but nothing that jumps out at you or is super intriguing that'll get the episode on the tracks. I'll start off with the NBA as James Harden has a fractured thumb that could impact the Cavaliers trajectory in the Eastern Conference. Also, the Thunder are a MASH unit at the moment, losing their six top scorers in a loss at Detroit. I'll see what's going on in the Association as the calendar is about to be flipped to March. (24:49) With March Madness just a few weeks away, things are heating up in the college ranks as Houston loses for the third straight game. Is their potential #1 seed in a bracket jeopardized because of this recent skid? (33:32) The NHL is back after a successful Gold Medal game in the Olympics. Will there be any carryover heading into the weekend? (43:39) A future Hall of Fame pitcher (Max Scherzer) returns for his 19th season, inking a one year deal in Toronto. What about Tarik Skubal's position when it comes to participating in the World Baseball Classic? (51:35) The NFL has announced three more games that are being played in London next year, but one team will have two of those games as the home team? (56:14) Is the world ready for another Floyd Mayweather-Manny Pacquiao fight? Should we even care at all? And MUCH MORE in between.

Seth and Sean discuss how the Astros hope to sort out their lineup issues and react to Greg Amsinger calling the 2019 Astros the 7th best regular season team of all time.

Seth and Sean discuss the 5 Texans who PFF named to their top 101 list and 1 big snub, talk about how the Astros are looking to manage their lineup juggling, Bryce Young jumping to CJ Stroud's defense on the Pivot podcast, what they want to hear from Nick Caserio in his Combine press conference, and see what the ITL question of the day is with Reggie and Lopez.

Four Republican candidates have thrown their hats in the ring to challenge two-term Governor JB Pritzker in November. They face an uphill battle against a billionaire Democrat in a state that has shifted more and more blue over the past decade.

In this episode, Dr. Steve Vargo sits down with Australian host Michael Nasser for a candid conversation about the real reason so many practices plateau—even when the doctor is working harder than ever: a leadership gap no one trained you for. Steve breaks down the hidden difference between management (running the day-to-day) and leadership (creating direction, clarity, and momentum)—and why most practice problems don't live in the exam room. They unpack what happens when goals are fuzzy, communication is inconsistent, and accountability is avoided… and how that quietly creates staff friction, stalled growth, and burnout. You'll hear practical, immediately usable ideas—like how to build accountability without confrontation, how to identify (or develop) the right office manager, and the five pillars Steve sees behind most team issues: clarity, development, strengths, accountability, and autonomy. If you've ever felt like you're carrying the entire practice on your back… if staffing is draining your energy… or if you know your practice could grow—but your team isn't aligned—this episode will feel like a reset.

AgendaMark Zuckerberg faces jury in landmark trial over alleged youth harm linked to social mediaThe lawsuit, K.G.M. v. Meta Platforms, Inc., et al., was filed by a 20-year-old California woman identified by her initials. She alleges that Meta and other tech companies deliberately engineered their platforms to hook young users, contributing to her depression and suicidal thoughts, and seeks to hold them accountable.Regarding Instagram's enforcement efforts, plaintiffs asked whether Meta removed all 4 million under-13 users the company had identified on the platform in 2018. Zuckerberg responded that while the company did not remove all of them, it had implemented tools to detect and address underage accounts and was working to improve those systems.According to reports, Zuckerberg has not directly answered the central question of the case: whether Instagram is addictive. The plaintiff's attorney, Mark Lanier, asked if people tend to use something more if it's addictive. “I'm not sure what to say to that,” Zuckerberg said. “I don't think that applies here.”He said he believes in the “basic assumption” that “if something is valuable, people will use it more because it's useful to them.”When he was asked about his compensation, Zuckerberg said he has pledged to give “almost all” of his money to charity, focusing on scientific research. Lanier asked him how much money he has pledged to victims impacted by social media, to which Zuckerberg replied, “I disagree with the characterization of your question.”Zuckerberg's courthouse entourage showed up in Meta Ray-BansMeta Adding Facial Recognition to Its Smart Glasses That Identifies People in Real Time, Hoping the Public Is Too Distracted by Political Turmoil to Care MMApple sued by West Virginia for alleged failure to stop child sexual abuse material on iCloud, iOS devicesSpaceX said to weigh dual-class IPO shares to empower MuskMacron Blasts Social Media's Free Speech Defense as ‘Bullshit'The stupid (ESG edition)Goldman Sachs to Drop D.E.I. Criteria for Board Members MMThe move would be the Wall Street firm's latest retreat from diversity mandates that its chief executive, David Solomon, had once made a priority.The decision is a result of a deal that Goldman struck with the National Legal and Policy Center, a conservative nonprofit group that has been pressuring numerous companies to drop diversity, equity and inclusion mandates, the people said.As part of its agreement with Goldman, the National Legal and Policy Center, which has a small investment in the bank, withdrew a shareholder proposal demanding that diversity criteria for the board be dropped.In March 2019, Mr. Solomon, his top deputy John Waldron and the firm's chief financial officer at the time, Stephen M. Scherr, declared diversity and inclusion “a top priority.”“When we unite around a common goal, we make progress together,” the men wrote in an email to the staff. They said they would “improve each year” toward goals that included a new recruiting class comprising “50 percent women, 11 percent Black professionals and 14 percent Hispanic/Latino professionals in the Americas, and 9 percent Black professionals in the U.K.”The next year, Mr. Solomon said Goldman would no longer take a company public in the United States or Europe unless it had at least one “diverse” board member. By 2021, a company would need at least two diverse board members in order for Goldman to agree to work on its initial public offering.Inspire Investing CEO: Nike's DEI Is A Legal Liability, Shareholders Coming For AnswersNike's DEI fight is no longer just a social media "culture war" argument.

It's become the legal bedrock of federal efforts to rein in emissions, especially in vehicles.Bill Maher Eviscerates Donald Trump Over ‘Biggest Dick Move in American History'The boring (ESG edition)Starbucks' investor group urges shareholders to replace directors over labor rowStarbucks faced fresh pressure on Wednesday from a coalition of investors including public-sector pension funds that urged shareholders ‌to vote against the reelection of two directors, citing persistent failure ‌to manage labor relations.The move against Starbucks' lead independent director, Jorgen Vig Knudstorp, and Beth ​Ford, chair of the board's Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee, comes as the company is locked in a prolonged effort to reach a collective agreement with its unionized baristas.Companies are cycling through CEOs—and replacing them with first-timers MMSome 168 new CEOs were appointed in 2025, the highest total since 2010. The defining shift was who got the job. Among incoming CEOs, 84% were serving in their first enterprise CEO role, reversing a multi-year tilt toward leaders with prior public-company experience.As recently as 2024, more than one in five new CEOs had already led a public company. That share fell sharply in 2025. Of the 140 first-time CEOs appointed, 116 had no prior enterprise CEO experience. Two-thirds had never served on a public company board, meaning many are stepping into the role without prior exposure to shareholder oversight or public company governance.CEO hopefuls have a new rival for the top job: their own board directorsAppointing board directors as CEOs was once a “break glass in case of emergency” strategy reserved for scandal, illness, or sudden resignation. While it remains a minority path compared with traditional internal promotions, it is no longer an anomaly.New data from Spencer Stuart highlights the shift. Of the 168 new S&P 1500 chief executives appointed in 2025, the highest annual total since 2010, 19 were drawn from their own company boards, the most since 2020. Spencer Stuart classifies directors as outsiders because they lack day-to-day operating responsibility. Even so, more boards are turning to them.Wall Street banks are paying their CEOs like it's 2006 againMorgan Stanley CEO Ted Pick's pay rises 32% to $45mlnBank of America Lifts Moynihan's Pay 17% to $41 Million for 2025Barclays Ceo Pay Hike: Barclays lifts CEO Venkatakrishnan's pay to over £15 million as bonus pool risesCitigroup bumps CEO Jane Fraser's pay to record $59mBro Culture (The Epstein Edition)Thomas Pritzker, Named in Epstein Files, Retires as Hyatt Executive ChairmanTom Pritzker Retires as Executive Chairman of Hyatt After 22 Years of Service and Will Not Stand for Reelection to Board of DirectorsThe Board has appointed Mark S. Hoplamazian, Hyatt's President and Chief Executive Officer, to succeed Mr. Pritzker as Chairman of the Board“Tom's leadership has been instrumental in shaping Hyatt's strategy and long-term growth, and we thank him for his service and dedication to Hyatt,” said Richard Tuttle, Chair of the Board's Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee. “The Board has engaged in thoughtful succession planning, and we are confident that Mark's deep knowledge of Hyatt's business, strong relationships with owners and colleagues, and proven track record as CEO of nearly two decades positions him well to serve as Chairman and continue driving Hyatt's long-term success.”In a letter to the Hyatt Hotels' Board of Directors, Tom Pritzker wrote, “My job and responsibility is to provide good stewardship. That is important to me. Good stewardship includes ensuring a proper transition at Hyatt. Following discussions with my fellow Board members, I have decided, after serving as Executive Chairman since 2004, and with the company in a strong position, that now is the right time for me to retire from Hyatt. Good stewardship also means protecting Hyatt, particularly in the context of my association with Jeffrey Epstein and Ghislaine Maxwell, which I deeply regret. I exercised terrible judgment in maintaining contact with them, and there is no excuse for failing to distance myself sooner. I condemn the actions and the harm caused by Epstein and Maxwell, and I feel deep sorrow for the pain they inflicted on their victims.”Dubai's DP World replaces CEO after Epstein links emergeDubai's DP World announced Essa Kazim was the new chairman of its board of directors and Yuvraj Narayan was its new group chief executive officer, replacing Sultan Ahmed bin Sulayem.Sulayem had been the CEO of Dubai's largest port operator since 2016 and chairman since 2007.DOJ records showed years of exchanges with Epstein, but Sulayem has not been accused of any criminal wrongdoing.Casey Wasserman to sell talent agency following Jefferey Epstein controversyCasey Wasserman has confirmed that he has started the process of selling his talent agency after it was uncovered that he had ties with Jefferey Epstein. The announcement comes as artists began to leave the agency after it was uncovered that the Wasserman CEO had extensive ties with Jeffrey Epstein and had sent flirtatious emails to Ghislaine Maxwell. Despite denying that he had any personal or business ties with either, Wasserman sent an apology to the 4,000 employees who work at his sports marketing and talent agency, confirming that he would be stepping down from the company. He said: “I'm deeply sorry that my past personal mistakes have caused you so much discomfort […] It's not fair to you, and it's not fair to the clients and partners we represent so vigorously and care so deeply about.”Former Victoria's Secret CEO Les Wexner testifies in House Epstein investigationThe billionaire behind the retail empire that once blanketed shopping malls with names such as Victoria's Secret and Abercrombie & Fitch told members of Congress on Wednesday that he was “duped by a world-class con man” — close financial adviser Jeffrey Epstein. Les Wexner also denied knowing about the late sex offender's crimes or participating in Epstein's abuse of girls and young women.“I was naive, foolish, and gullible to put any trust in Jeffrey Epstein. He was a con man. And while I was conned, I have done nothing wrong and have nothing to hide.”Wexner described himself to the lawmakers as a philanthropist, community builder and grandfather who always strove “to live my life in an ethical manner in line with my moral compass,” according to the statement.Top Goldman Sachs lawyer Kathy Ruemmler to resign over Epstein linksThe latest Justice Department release revealed a trove of communication between the two, including about potential jobs, her romantic life and gifts Epstein had given her.

Hoping for a larger tax return this year? 'The Tax Lady' Esther Gulyas tells us if you'll get your wish.

She Thought She Knew About Trauma and Stress, Until Jail: A Nurse Speaks. For years, she believed she understood trauma and stress. As a registered nurse, she had already witnessed illness, injury, and emotional hardship both personally and professionally. But nothing, she says, truly prepared her for what she would experience working behind the secured doors of a correctional facility. The Law Enforcement Talk Radio Show and Podcast social media like their Facebook , Instagram , LinkedIn , Medium and other social media platforms. Now a retired RN and founder of 3R Strategic Life Coaching, LLC, Laura Bulbitz is sharing her journey publicly through the Law Enforcement Talk Radio Show and Podcast, it's social media platforms like facebook, Instagram, LinkedIn, and more. Hoping her story resonates with correctional professionals, nurses, police officers, and other first responders facing silent burnout. The Podcast is available and shared for free on the Law Enforcement Talk Radio Show and Podcast website, also on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, YouTube and most major podcast platforms. A Calling Born from Personal Trauma Long before she stepped into a jail medical unit, Bulbitz's path toward nursing was shaped by deeply personal experiences. Trauma within her own family, including serious illness and a devastating accident involving her husband and son, became the catalyst that pushed her toward healthcare. Supporting articles about this and much more from Law Enforcement Talk Radio Show and Podcast in platforms like Medium , Blogspot and Linkedin . “I wanted to help people survive the moments that change everything,” she said. “When your world flips upside down, healthcare workers are often the first faces you see.” Nursing became more than a career, it became a mission. She worked in demanding environments and eventually transitioned into correctional healthcare, attracted by strong benefits and stable employment opportunities. At the time, it seemed like a practical decision. “It looked like a good move financially and professionally,” she recalled. “I thought I was prepared.” Inside the World of Correctional Nursing Correctional nurses, often called jail nurses, serve as registered nurses (RNs) or licensed practical nurses (LPNs) responsible for providing healthcare to incarcerated individuals in jails, prisons, and detention centers. Their role is critical but frequently misunderstood. Available for free on the Law Enforcement Talk Radio Show and Podcast website, also on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, Youtube and most major Podcast networks. Unlike traditional hospital settings, correctional healthcare combines medicine with security protocols and high-risk environments. Daily responsibilities include: Conducting intake assessments for new detainees Managing chronic illnesses such as diabetes and hypertension Administering medications and monitoring treatment plans Responding to emergencies, injuries, and mental health crises Collaborating with correctional officers and outside specialists The work requires autonomy, critical thinking, psychiatric awareness, and adaptability, often with fewer resources than hospitals provide. Look for The Law Enforcement Talk Radio Show and Podcast on social media like their Facebook , Instagram , LinkedIn , Medium and other social media platforms. “It's fast-paced, unpredictable, and emotionally intense,” Bulbitz explained. “You're treating patients while constantly aware of safety and security.” She quickly realized the emotional weight of the job extended far beyond clinical care. “You're seeing trauma every single day, addiction, mental illness, violence, despair,” she said. “And you carry those stories home whether you want to or not.” When Compassion Meets Burnout Over time, the cumulative stress began to take a toll. Correctional nurses frequently operate in environments where emergencies can escalate rapidly, and emotional detachment becomes a survival mechanism. For Bulbitz, years of exposure combined with her own unresolved personal trauma created a perfect storm. Available for free on their website and streaming on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, Youtube and other podcast platforms. “I didn't notice it happening at first,” she said. “You just keep going because that's what nurses do.” Eventually, exhaustion turned into burnout, emotional fatigue that no amount of rest seemed to fix. “I realized I wasn't the same person anymore,” she shared. “The compassion was still there, but I was drained. Completely drained.” After years of service, she made the difficult decision to retire from nursing altogether. “It felt like losing part of my identity,” she admitted. “But I also knew I couldn't keep pouring from an empty cup.” A New Mission Emerges Leaving nursing did not mean leaving service behind. Instead, Bulbitz began transforming her experiences into something new. Today, she works as a life coach specializing in corrections professionals, law enforcement officers, healthcare workers, and first responders, people she believes often carry invisible emotional burdens. It is discussed across News platforms and shared on Facebook, Instagram, LinkedIn, Apple, and Spotify, where true crime audiences continue to get their content. A life coach, she explains, differs from a therapist. Rather than diagnosing or treating mental health conditions, coaching focuses on present goals and future growth. “A life coach helps people move forward,” she said. “It's about clarity, accountability, and building strategies to improve life now.” Her coaching approach emphasizes: Goal-oriented planning Actionable strategies for career and personal balance Accountability and motivation Active listening and powerful questioning “Many first responders don't want therapy,” she noted. “But they do want tools to regain control of their lives.” Though life coaching remains an unregulated industry without formal licensing requirements, Bulbitz combines professional experience with specialized training and firsthand understanding of high-stress professions. You can find the show on Facebook, Instagram, Pinterest, X (formerly Twitter), and LinkedIn, as well as read companion articles and updates on Medium, Blogspot, YouTube, and even IMDB. “I've lived the burnout,” she said. “I speak their language.” Sharing the Message Publicly Determined to reach a wider audience, Bulbitz began sharing her story online. Her message quickly gained attention across The Law Enforcement Talk Radio Show and Podcast website, their facebook, Instagram, and LinkedIn, where professionals related to her honest discussions about stress, trauma exposure, and career transitions. The Law Enforcement Talk Radio Show and Podcast, is available on their website and platforms like Apple Podcasts, Spotify, YouTube and most major podcast platforms. She expands conversations through longer-form discussions focused on resilience and personal transformation. “A Nurse speaks,” she often says at the start of her talks, a reminder that her perspective comes from lived experience, not theory. Free on their website and streaming on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, Youtube and other podcast platforms. “The goal isn't to relive trauma,” she explained. “It's to learn how to move forward without letting it define you.” Turning Pain Into Purpose Looking back, Bulbitz says her journey has come full circle. The trauma that once pushed her into nursing eventually guided her toward coaching, helping others navigate the emotional realities of service careers. “I thought my nursing career ending was a failure,” she said. “Now I see it was a transition.” Through 3R Strategic Life Coaching, LLC, she now helps professionals rediscover balance, redefine success, and rebuild resilience after years of high-pressure work. The Law Enforcement Talk Radio Show and Podcast on social media like their Facebook , Instagram , LinkedIn , Medium and other social media platforms. Her message is simple but powerful: “You can care deeply about others without losing yourself,” she said. “But you have to learn how to take care of the caregiver too.” For Bulbitz, the lessons learned behind jail walls continue to shape her mission today, proving that sometimes the hardest chapters of life become the foundation for helping others heal.

Re-evaluate every October, because we are back for our surprise eighth season of new/old Wie is de Mol episodes - and we're beginning the year by going all the way back to 2012's offering in Iceland & Spain! Over these nine weeks, three guys who are just going to be lame and finish with over, over - Logan, Michael & Bindles - are recapping and negotiating their way through everything that happened on another season with a very interesting backstory now built upon further by Renaissamce, continuing with the sixth episode and elimination of Frits. In this episode - there's some brief Traitors talk, we're all affected by Golden Week, Michael deals with some rudeness, one of us feels very vindicated thanks to comedy, Tim pre-empts the Suspect List, Hadewych has a breakout episode, Logan learns about a song coming to Canada very soon, Frits & Liesbeth play the archery challenge badly, there's a Survivor deep cut, Production gets a BOGOF, William heads to Wal-Mart, we reveal the exact opposite of "Dutch James Bond", the third challenge is straight out of the 1% Club playbook, Frits has a memorable exit, Logan locks in his final pair of suspicions for the season and we have an off-air meeting. Thank you for listening - we will see you next week for Episode 7! Please note: This season is intended on being spoiler-free, so please watch the episodes along with us. As with our coverage of Seasons 9, 11, 14, 16 & 17, there are no spoilers due to Logan not having seen the season before. However, any season we have already covered (WIDM 9-11, 14, 16-25 and Renaissance; België 4-13) is fair game though.  This episode is supported by our friends over at Zencastr.

Rob and Jeremy took some time from Wednesday's BBMS to discuss today's looming presser from the Ravens and their new coordinators. What are you hoping hear from Doyle and Weaver today?

We've had the first monetary policy decision from the new Reserve Bank Governor, and it's not until you get a new captain at the helm that you realise just how little confidence you had left in the previous one. Now, to be fair, it's early days for Anna Breman. We'll judge her by what she does from here on in. But she does start with a clean slate - without us reading too much into her decisions or second-guessing every move because of a poor track record. And that, I'd say, is a very welcome change from just a few weeks ago before she took over. Her assessment is that inflation is fine. Yes, it's a little high right now - 3.1 percent, outside the target band - but it's expected to fall back within the band by this time next year. The economy is improving. The green shoots that were previously limited to certain regions and industries are becoming more widespread. Households are getting more money in their pockets, but they're still cautious - and that's a problem. Because unless they're confident enough to spend, they'll hold back the economic recovery from what it could potentially be. But - and this is probably the bit you've been most interested in, and waiting for - they will start raising the OCR faster than expected. Previously, the Official Cash Rate projection had it going from 2.2 percent in March to 2.3 percent in December. That's now been brought forward: they're forecasting 2.3 percent in June and 2.4 percent in December. The first increase will still most likely be in December, but the chances of it happening in September just increased. It's not a major concern. It's not a major correction. It's not a game-changer for most people. But it does bring the inevitable a little closer. Still - for now - it's nice to have a change at the top, isn't it? And here's hoping this Governor does a better job than the last one. LISTEN ABOVESee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

On Super Bowl Sunday during the Winter Olympics, Alyssa and Nadia discuss Lindsey Vonn competing in Olympic downhill days after tearing her ACL—and the crash that got her airlifted off the mountain again. They unpack injury risk, medical autonomy, and what elite athletes model for everyone watching.Nadia explains that Vonn tore her ACL last week, met with her medical team, and chose to race anyway. This morning she fell and was airlifted with a leg fracture. Nadia sees both sides: racing with a torn ACL is risky, but the crash looked like it came from clipping a gate—not purely the knee.Alyssa breaks down the ACL as the “packaging tape” that stabilizes the knee. Some athletes can compensate with strong surrounding muscles, but injury can disrupt proprioception and make the brain “shut off” muscle connection. The ACL might've limited her ability to load the left leg for a key right turn—though ice and countless variables could've been factors too.Nadia points to the pressure around Vonn: six-year retirement, huge comeback expectations, and tests suggesting she could do it. With that status, the medical team may have felt pushed to justify a “yes.” As Nadia puts it, no one could've stopped her—she was going to race.Alyssa connects this to her work with young gymnasts in competition season. Her role is to support goals while clearly assessing and communicating risk, not to override the athlete's choice. If they still want to compete after understanding the risks, she helps them do it as safely as possible.They shift to what athletes model for others. Nadia references Kerri Strug and how often gymnasts compete injured—brave, but sometimes concerning. Alyssa draws the key difference: Strug was a child under coach pressure, while Vonn is an adult making her own call.They close with Nadia's “personal Olympics”: her 12th year in gymnastics at 21. This season is about less stress, more fun, and enjoying leadership on e-board. With new teammates—including her sister—she's reliving milestones through fresh eyes.Happy Galentine's to all the listeners.TakeawaysThe ACL stabilizes the knee; tearing it can change control and confidence under high speed/load.Injury can disrupt proprioception and motor control, sometimes making movement less reliable.Elite athletes face intense external pressure to compete, which can bias decision-making around risk.Clinicians/medical teams must balance protecting health with supporting an athlete's goals.Adults have the right to make their own medical choices and accept calculated risk (“your body, your choice”).The Kerri Strug comparison isn't equal—she was a child under pressure; Vonn is an autonomous adult.In extreme sports, the biggest danger isn't reinjury—it's catastrophic, life-threatening trauma.Chapters0:10–0:48 – Introduction: Super Bowl Sunday and the Winter Olympics0:48–1:23 – Lindsey Vonn's Morning Injury1:23–2:37 – Last Week's ACL Tear and Decision to Compete2:37–4:09 – What Is an ACL?4:09–7:19 – Anatomy Lesson: Ligaments, Muscles, and Proprioception7:19–8:27 – How ACL Tears Happen and the Body's Response8:27–10:13 – Could She Have Avoided the Second Injury10:13–12:03 – The Mechanics of Her Fall: Did the ACL Play a Role?12:03–13:47 – The Pressure to Compete: Olympics and Comeback Stories13:47–15:19 – Working with Young Athletes: The Clinical Parallel15:19–16:39 – The Biggest Fear: Life-Threatening Injury16:39–18:10 – What Athletes Model: The Kerri Strug Comparison18:10–19:25 – Your Body, your Choice: Medical Autonomy19:25–20:10 – Hoping for Vonn's Recovery20:10–21:09 – Nadia's "Personal Olympics": Gymnastics Season Starts21:09–22:42 – What Makes It Fun: Team, Leadership, and Rewriting the Story22:42–23:49 – Galentine's Plans and Season Well-Wishes

Motherhood is full of moments that make us laugh—sometimes out of pure joy, and sometimes because life feels too ridiculous not to. In this episode of the Gather Moms Podcast, we continue our Bible Moms series by stepping into the story of Sarah, a woman who waited decades for God's promise and laughed when it finally seemed too impossible to believe. Sarah's story (Genesis 12–25) reads like a Netflix drama: unanswered prayers, bad decisions made in desperation, long seasons of waiting, and a plot twist only God could write. As we walk through her journey, we talk honestly about what it means to trust God when your body, your circumstances, and your timeline all seem to tell a different story. In Genesis 18, Sarah laughs when she overhears God promise she'll have a son in her old age. But her laughter isn't mockery—it's the laughter of exhaustion, disappointment, and guarded hope. Years later, when Isaac is finally born, Sarah laughs again—this time with joy, marveling at what God has done and inviting others to laugh with her. This episode is an invitation for moms to read Scripture with compassion instead of judgment, to bring doubts honestly before God, and to trust that nothing is too hard for the Lord. Whether you're waiting on a promise, feeling worn out, or wondering if it's too late for God to work—Sarah's story reminds us that God is faithful, patient, and always on time. In this episode, we talk about: Why laughter shows up so often in motherhood—and in the Bible How to read Scripture with compassion instead of comparison What Sarah's waiting teaches us about God's timing Why God isn't offended by our doubts or questions How God fulfills His promises, even when we make messy choices The hope that comes from trusting God with what feels impossible Scripture referenced: Genesis 12–25, Genesis 18:9–14, Genesis 21:1–6 Next steps:Join us on Gather Moms Patreon as we read through the book of Luke together during Lent, starting February 18. Our hope is that 2026 becomes the year you fall in love with God's Word in a whole new way.

www.teachhoops.com Tournament week is here, and the biggest mistake coaches make is trying to add more instead of trying to sharpen what already works. In this episode, we walk through how to simplify your world, tighten your rotation, and get crystal clear on the handful of actions and coverages you can trust when the pressure hits. Because in win-or-go-home basketball, your team doesn't need a bigger playbook — they need a clearer one. We also dig into the “margin stuff” that decides most tournament games: rebounding, transition defense, ball security, free throws, and communication.

Rodney Roberts was arrested in 1996 in Newark, NJ, after an altercation with a friend. After several days in custody, he found himself charged with the kidnapping and rape of a 17-year-old girl. His court appointed attorney advised him to plead guilty or spend the rest of his life in prison. Rodney had a good job and had recently moved with his young son into a new apartment. Hoping to get back to his son as soon as possible, Rodney pleaded guilty to the crime in exchange for a seven-year sentence. He would end up spending 18 years in custody before DNA evidence excluded him as a perpetrator and he was exonerated and released in 2014.

Rob and Michele Reiner didn't fit the profile of parents who looked the other way. They showed up. They sat in every therapy session. They wrote the checks. They flew to the facilities. They played frisbee with their son's rehab roommate. For more than fifteen years, they did everything the experts told them to do — and when that didn't work, they blamed the experts and tried something else.This episode traces the psychological architecture that two deeply intelligent, deeply loving parents built to survive life with an addicted and increasingly unstable adult son. From the early rehab years where counselors warned them Nick was manipulating them, to the stunning public reversal where Rob told the LA Times they should have been "listening to our son" instead of the professionals, to the schizophrenia diagnosis that reframed every red flag as a symptom instead of a warning — each new framework replaced the last, and each one kept Rob and Michele exactly where they started. In a house. With their son. Hoping the next variable would change the equation.The night before they were found dead, Rob reportedly brought Nick to Conan O'Brien's Christmas party because he and Michele were afraid to leave him alone. Guests described Nick as erratic and unsettling. A loud argument erupted. According to an account shared at the Reiners' memorial, Rob told friends he was "petrified" of his own son. And then he went home.This isn't about hindsight. It's about the mental gymnastics that families of addicts perform every single day to make their reality survivable — and how love, guilt, and hope can become a prison with no exit. Tony Brueski breaks down every turn in the Reiners' thinking, not from the outside looking in, but from inside the logic that made every choice feel like the right one.#RobReiner #MicheleSingerReiner #NickReiner #ReinerCase #TrueCrime #BeingCharlie #Addiction #Enabling #BrentwoodMurder #HiddenKillersJoin Our SubStack For AD-FREE ADVANCE EPISODES & EXTRAS!: https://hiddenkillers.substack.com/Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

Hoping Against Hope: Redefining Control, Trust, and Spiritual Alignment with Dr. Dave In this episode, you'll hear: A fresh perspective on hope and its role in mental health How agency, the power to choose, can transform your outlook Tips for navigating anxiety, trust, and spiritual alignment Mathew and Dr. Dave explore the real meaning of hope, inspired by Cortney's decision to remove "hope" from her vocabulary. Dr. Dave deep dives into hope theory, discussing C.R. Snyder's model of agency and pathways, and the importance of recognizing multiple ways forward, even when life feels uncertain. Together, they reveal how surrendering control, focusing on trust, and embracing spiritual alignment (rather than outcome attachment) can offer calm and resilience amid adversity. Drawing from clinical experience and personal reflection, Dr. Dave shares practical strategies for cultivating agency and reframing hope into effective action even when past trauma or life circumstances make change feel impossible. “Trust feels calm and hope feels a little anxious.” Mathew Blades   To get in touch with our podcast, email INFO@Learnfrompeoplewholivedit.com Visit our Guests: Mathew Blades - MathewBlades.com Dr. Anna Marie Frank - https://drannamarie.com Cortney McDermott - https://www.cortneymcdermott.com Dr. Dave - https://www.drdaveaz.com/ Jill McMahon - Jillmcmahoncounseling.com To grab a copy of our 6-Week Wellness course, which is video-led, visit https://a.co/d/0ihE1vaw If you want to use Streamyard to create a podcast like this, use this link: https://streamyard.com/pal/c/4656111098003456

Topic: World Exploration through Cinema Roger Ebert is cited as saying, “We live in a box of space and time. Movies are windows in their walls. They allow us to enter other minds, not simply in the sense of identifying with the characters, although that is an important part of it, but by seeing the world as another person sees it.” Movies are windows to the world.

  When Daniel wrote that he had a new mix based around silence I knew it would be good. Then I saw the tracklist and I knew it would be great. He includes cuts from some of my favorite artists - Halftribe, Innesti, Sonmi451, Loscil, and A Produce. The A Produce track is one of my favorite ambienbt tracks of all time. Here's what Daniel says about his new mix: Claude Debussy once wrote: “The music is not in the notes, but in the silence between them”, suggesting that music's emotional impact, beauty, and expression come from the pauses and spacing between sounds.  The first thing I think of is Eno's classic Music for Airports - man did I fall in love with that album.  Roach's Dream Circle comes to mind - low and slow - the music just seems to breathe.  Of course you have the steady state drone stuff from Grassow and friends, which I like - but there is no real structure - that's the point I guess.  I tried to pick work for this mix that had at least a bit of melody, but plenty of silence to define the notes.  There is a sweet spot that when achieved sends me at least into a deep peaceful space.  I'm thinking we all need to spend some time in that space these days to recharge and nurture our sanity.  Hoping this mix might help with that my friends.  Thanks, Daniel, for another excellent mix.

You already know what needs to end. You've known for a while. You're just waiting for someone else to make it obvious—so you don't have to be the one to choose.In this second episode of The Soul's Eight Thresholds of Transformation, Nina Hirlaender OFS explores the Spring Equinox threshold: the moment when you stop drifting between options and consciously decide what stays and what goes. This is the threshold of chosen endings—the act of stepping out of "maybe" and into clarity, even when you can't guarantee the outcome. What You'll Learn:How to recognize when you're stuck in "maybe"—feeling torn between two directions, craving certainty, and quietly hoping life will decide for youWhy waiting for perfect clarity keeps you circling instead of moving forward—and why trying to please everyone erodes your self-trust over timeWhat happens in your body when you walk the West Kennet Avenue at Avebury—how the rhythm of ancient stones settles your mind and simplifies questions you've been carrying for monthsHow Ignatius of Loyola's teaching on "holy indifference" helps you make decisions that lead to interior freedom instead of fear-based avoidanceA five-minute discernment scan to sense which path brings love, truth, and freedom—and take one concrete step todayWhy peace comes from integrity, not perfect information—and how to choose an ending so a new beginning has room to growYour Next Steps:Register for the free live class: The 8 Seasons of the Soul (And How to Know Which One You're In) — February 21stExplore the final Celtic Shamanism in England Pilgrimage — May 23–June 2, 2026Book a call with Nina to get your questions answeredSupport the showRate, Review & Follow If Holy Rebels has helped you practise your spirituality in real life, would you take 30 seconds to leave a quick rating and review?

Andy and Randy bounce around to some of the bigger sports stories around Atlanta and nationwide.

Alejandro Peña Esclusa explains that while Europeans criticize Maduro's capture, Venezuelans support it, hoping for the release of remaining political prisoners under a new amnesty law restoring democratic governance.1890 CASTRO CABNET, CARACAS

Confederate General Jubal Early marched on Washington, D.C., hoping to free prisoners, but was delayed by Union resistance at Monocacy. Although Early reached Fort Stevens, where President Lincoln famously stood under fire, the attack failed partly due to a lack of coordination with Mosby's partisan forces.1865
