Come live vicariously through me as I spend a week in Mexico working with Arette, spending time with friends, exploring some incredible distilleries, and continuing to show my wife just how special this place is to me.There was tequila, of course. A lot of it. But there was so much more—old friends, new friends, great food, long days, unexpected adventures, and those moments that remind me why I keep coming back to Jalisco.This was one of those trips where the work never really felt like work, and I found myself incredibly grateful for the opportunity to experience it all with the people I care about.So come along for the ride.
It's Thursday, August 13th, A.D. 2026. This is The Worldview in 5 Minutes heard on 140 radio stations and at www.TheWorldview.com. I'm Adam McManus. (Adam@TheWorldview.com) By Jonathan Clark and Adam McManus Haitian gangs target churches Violent gangs in Haiti are increasingly targeting churches. These gangs control up to 90 percent of the capital of Port-au-Prince. They have killed and kidnapped religious leaders and shut down dozens of churches. Catholic Bishop Joseph Gontrand Décoste told Aid to the Church in Need, “We are the last remaining retaining wall: moral, ethical, spiritual, and prophetic. … That is why they want to eliminate us.” Christians help victims of Columbia's earthquake Christians are bringing disaster relief to Colombia. A 7.4-magnitude earthquake struck the South American country on Monday. The quake killed 250 people and injured thousands more. Many Christian relief organizations are sending aid to the country, including Samaritan's Purse. Franklin Graham, the president, wrote on X, “We … are currently working to put together an airlift of relief supplies, including emergency shelter tarp and hygiene kits. I encourage you to pray for the people of this country.” Hebrews 13:16 says, “Do not forget to do good and to share, for with such sacrifices God is well pleased.” Send a much-needed donation to the Columbian victims of this earthquake through Samaritan's Purse. You'll find the donation link in our transcript today at www.TheWorldview.com. Mexican Bible Society translates Scriptures into 8 local languages The Bible Society of Mexico is celebrating six decades of ministry this year. The Bible has been translated into eight indigenous languages in the country. And the demand for Bibles is growing as Protestant churches expand their presence. Efraín Amaro is the head of distribution of the Bible society. He told Christian Daily International, “In 60 years, more than 374 million biblical materials have been distributed. We have reached 13 cities across the country with service and distribution centers.” Revelation 7:9-10 says, “After these things I looked, and behold, a great multitude which no one could number, of all nations, tribes, peoples, and tongues, standing before the throne and before the Lamb, clothed with white robes, with palm branches in their hands, and crying out with a loud voice, saying, ‘Salvation belongs to our God Who sits on the throne, and to the Lamb!'” White House Press Secretary Karolien Leavitt embraces motherhood White House Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt, age 28, will be leaving her position to fully embrace motherhood. She and her 60-year-old husband, Nicholas Riccio, have two children together -- their son Niko, 2, and Viviana who is three months. In a Truth Social post, President Donald Trump explained that she “will be departing her role at the end of the month so she can spend more time with her beautiful young children and family, a decision I totally understand and respect!” In a statement on X, Leavitt added, “Serving as the White House Press Secretary over the past year and a half has been the honor and adventure of a lifetime. I am incredibly grateful to President Trump for granting me so many extraordinary opportunities, such as working in the West Wing and spending countless hours in the Oval Office, flying around the world and meeting foreign leaders, and traveling across our beautiful country and meeting Americans from all walks of life. “The truth is, since returning to the White House after the birth of my daughter, I have felt in my heart that I cannot be the best mom my two young children deserve while devoting the constant time, energy, and attention required of the White House Press Secretary. And that is why I have ultimately made the bittersweet decision to depart the White House.” Titus 2:4-5 says, “Train the young women to love their husbands and children, to be self-controlled, pure, working at home, kind, and submissive to their own husbands, that the word of God may not be reviled.” Democrat socialist barely defeated in Wisconsin Socialist Democrats suffered a setback in Wisconsin on Tuesday. Moderate David Crowley barely defeated socialist Francesca Hong in the Democrat primary election for governor. According to NBC, the vote was 39.8% vs 39.3%. Just 3,796 votes separated the two in the statewide race. Leftist candidates had been winning many Democrat primaries this year. Despite being considered a moderate, Crowley believes that killing unborn babies is “healthcare” and must be “protected at all costs.” He made this comment in his victory speech. CROWLEY: “Every one of us has something much bigger to unite around. And that is keeping [Make America Great Again] extremism from bringing the chaos we see in Washington into our neighborhoods right here in the state of Wisconsin. From the very first day that I announced this campaign, I said the real threat wasn't any of my primary opponents. The real opponent has always been Tom Tiffany. That remains true today.” Tiffany, the Republican nominee for Wisconsin governor, is currently a member of Congress. The Washington Examiner reports that new Democratic-affiliated polling shows Crowley beating Tiffany by three points this fall, though the race is within the margin of error. Crowley leads Tiffany 47% to 44%, according to the poll by Protect Our Wisconsin, a group backed by the Democratic Governors Association. Federal gov't gave mega money to religious migrant resettlement groups The federal government funded major religious groups with hundreds of millions of dollars in migrant resettlement grants. The data comes from Brian Chau, the founder of Efforts News. Tech entrepreneur Elon Musk brought attention to this research in a post on X this week. In one case, the U.S. Conference of Catholic Bishops received over $180 million dollars in migrant resettlement grants in 2024. That was over 80 percent of the group's revenue at the time. The contracts ended last year after the Trump administration cut funding to such programs. Women hold more jobs than men in America Women now hold more jobs than men in the U.S economy. A report from Indeed's Hiring Lab found the number of jobs held by men declined by 142,000 between February 2025 and February 2026. Over the same period, the number of jobs held by women grew by 298,000. The report noted, “More jobs are held by women than men in the non-farm economy, not because of a recession, but because of years of eroding male labor force participation.” Americans become skeptical of capitalism Americans are becoming less positive toward capitalism. A new Gallup survey found 54 percent of U.S. adults said they have a positive image of capitalism. That's down from 61 percent in 2010. Thirty-nine percent said they have a positive image of socialism. That's up from 36 percent in 2010. The drop in positivity toward capitalism has accelerated since 2021. Americans trust small, local businesses and churches And finally, Americans tend to trust small, local institutions, according to research from the Barna Group. U.S. adults put some of their highest trust in local businesses, individual Christians, and small churches. They put moderate trust in Christian pastors, Christian non-profits, and Christian businesses. But they had little trust for megachurches and celebrity pastors. Compared to 2024, Christian non-profits, charities, and small churches saw the largest growth on the trust index.

Sometimes I wish it were in my power to get every church youth group in America to go on a missions trip. Something unusual happens when some all-American kids suddenly get plunged into another culture to do some work in Jesus' name. It does something for the people they go to help, but I think it does more for the kids who are doing the helping. I heard a local youth group report on their trip to Mexico. Basically they had all of their support stripped away from them while they were there. It was a language they weren't accustomed to, the money was different, they didn't have the comforts they were used to, they had some spiders hanging over them as they slept at night which they for the most part don't have at home. They had unfamiliar food. The customs were things they weren't used to. The result on these mission trips is pretty predictable. All of a sudden, kids who never have devotions are up early in the morning on a rock with a Bible somewhere. Kids who have always thought prayer was boring are saying, "Let's pray!" What they learn several thousand miles from home is something you may need to learn right where you are today. I'm Ron Hutchcraft and I want to have A Word With You today about "Desperate for An Answer." Our word for today from the Word of God comes from Matthew 5:6. You might recognize this as being in what's called The Beatitudes, Jesus' Sermon on the Mount. He says, "Blessed are those who hunger and thirst for righteousness, for they will be filled." I think Jesus is describing spiritual health here in terms similar to what we do when we talk about physical health - appetite. How's your appetite? And He is talking about people who say, "I'm hungry for the Lord; I'm thirsty for the Lord. I need more of You, Lord. I need You!" Those kids on that missionary trip are learning a valuable lesson. With all of their usual dependencies stripped away, they find out that you know the Lord when you need the Lord. Maybe that's why third-world Christians have so much more power in their lives, and have so much more revival in their experience than we do. They don't have all of the props we do, and it seems that those who know the Lord the best are those who need Him the most. We dig deeply into the Lord when the bottom drops out. I'm sure you have. I have. And then, once things have stabilized, we tend to return to our old props. We tend to return to a casual Christianity instead of this desperately dependent but very rich faith. The fact is we desperately need the Lord every day, not just when the bottom drops out. We're as needy as the people in the third world. We shouldn't be confused because we've got internet, and movies, and concerts, and church services, and homes and all these other support structures. We just don't cling to Him because we're surrounded by so many other resources. Do we have to wait for all our resources to be stripped away before we learn how much we need our Lord? Do we have to be starving to death before we get to be hungry for more of Him? "Blessed are those who hunger and thirst for righteousness. They will be filled." See what we're missing because we haven't acknowledged how much we need Him? Even now, why don't you ask the Lord (it's kind of a strange prayer), "Lord, make me desperate for You." He'd rather do it without trauma and without tragedy. Ask Him to give you a new hour-by-hour sense of your desperate need for Him; an hour-by-hour dependency; the child on his Heavenly Father. And then live today as if God is your only hope, not just one of your many resources. When you need the Lord desperately, you get to know Him deeply.
What happens when you come in to learn about investing and end up rebuilding your entire life? This week on The Spiritual Investor Podcast, I speak with Megan Taylor about exactly this. Megan Taylor is a globally recognized DJ, music strategist, and retreat producer, known as a DJ Alchemist for the way she fuses sound and energy into experiences people do not forget. Over fifteen years she has worked with SoulCycle, Vogue, Nike, Facebook, the WNBA, and TEDx, was voted Chicago's Best DJ, and was named among BizBash's Top 500 Most Influential Event Professionals and Top 25 Entertainers. She also holds a Master's in Emotional and Social Intelligence, produces transformational retreats for spiritual entrepreneurs from Mexico to England, and has done two rounds of the SI Mastermind. She joined to learn about money. What she left with was a new relationship, a new city, a dissolved relationship with time, and a completely different understanding of what abundance actually is. We talk about her decision to sell everything, live nomadically, and land in Tulum with no plan. We talk about the dinner party that opened a whole new timeline. And we talk about the moment she realized her carefully tracked budget was not responsible money management, it was a ceiling she had built herself. In this episode: Why abundance is one energy and money is only one of the forms it takes How living outside of time creates the space for things to reorganize on your behalf Certainty as an embodied state rather than a prediction about the future The difference between being all in and being half in Why Megan let go of the numbers and what happened after Breaking the structure on purpose instead of waiting for life to break it for you To learn more about Megan, visit www.thisismegantaylor.com or follow Megan on Instagram @djmegantaylor.

As the sun slowly rose over the Rio Grande on September 15, 1891, Catarino Erasmo Garza stood on the Texas side of the border holding in his hands two objects that would come to define his life: a Winchester rifle and a revolutionary proclamation. For years Garza had fought the dictatorship of Porfirio Díaz through his many newspapers and publications. Now he announced that he was laying down the pen and taking up arms. In the opening lines of his manifesto, he declared:"The last of the independent journalists today abandons the pen to seize the sword in defense of the people's rights."His proclamation denounced the destruction of the free press, political murder, fraudulent elections, and the concentration of land and power, while calling for constitutional government, free trade, and land reform in Mexico. Nearly twenty years before Francisco Madero launched the movement that became the Mexican Revolution, Garza had already identified the grievances that would eventually bring down the Díaz regime.Today, Garza remains largely absent from popular memory. His name never appears alongside revolutionary icons like Emiliano Zapata, Pancho Villa, or Francisco Madero, despite the fact that he articulated many of the democratic demands later associated with the Mexican Revolution. This is a shame, because Garza was more than a revolutionary soldier. He was an influential journalist, an international activist, and the likely publisher of El Chicano, a Spanish-language newspaper in San Antonio that may represent the earliest known printed use of the word Chicano as a positive political identity.

Pour écouter 5000 ans d'Histoire en entier, sans pub et avec les bonus, pour 2€ par mois :https://m.audiomeans.fr/s/S-tavkjvmo Aujourd'hui, retour sur le 13 août 1521, la chute de Tenochtitlan. 13 août 1521, Tenochtitlan brûle. La grande capitale des Aztèques, bâtie sur un lac entouré de canaux et de temples, s'effondre dans la boue et le sang. Après 3 mois de siège, Hernán Cortés et ses troupes, épaulées par des milliers d'alliés indigènes, entrent dans la ville en ruine. Il ne reste rien du tout du faste aztèque, ni palais, ni jardin suspendu, ni prière. La chute de Tenochtitlan, c'est la fin d'un monde. Cortés n'était pourtant arrivé que deux ans plus tôt avec une poignée d'hommes, mais il a su nouer des alliances, exploiter les divisions entre peuples indigènes, imposer sa force avec une violence froide. Face à lui, l'empereur Cuauhtémoc résiste jusqu'au bout. Jeune, déterminé, il devient le dernier symbole d'un empire à l'agonie. Le 13 août, il est capturé alors qu'il tente de fuir en canaux. Il dira à Cortés : "Seigneur, j'ai fait ce que je devais pour défendre ma ville et mon peuple. Maintenant, tue-moi !". Cortés ne le tue pas, enfin, pas tout de suite, mais le destin de l'empereur aztèque est déjà scellé, et celui de son peuple aussi. Le 13 août 1521, ce n'est pas seulement la fin de Tenochtitlan, c'est la naissance d'un nouveau monde brutal, métissé, colonial. Sur les ruines du cœur aztèque, les Espagnols vont construire Mexico. Et l'Amérique, désormais, ne sera plus jamais la même. A demain dans TIME SHOT pour une nouvelle Minute Histoire. Hébergé par Audiomeans.

Host: Lalo Solorzano and Andy Shiles Guest(s): Ken Roberts and Tatiana Panzardi Published: August 13, 2026 Length: ~35 minutes Presented by: Global Training Center Summary The latest U.S. trade numbers are in—and they reveal an economy being reshaped by artificial intelligence, tariffs, changing supply chains, and new patterns in global commerce. In this quarterly trade update, Lalo Solorzano and Andy Shiles welcome back trade-data expert Ken Roberts, joined by Tatiana Panzardi of WorldCity, to unpack U.S. Census Bureau trade data through the first six months of 2026. The numbers tell a fascinating story. U.S. trade is up, Mexico is firmly positioned as the nation's leading trading partner, and Port Laredo has returned to the top among U.S. trade gateways by value. But perhaps the biggest shift is happening in technology: computer imports have surged as companies pour billions into AI infrastructure and data centers, changing rankings that were historically dominated by oil and automobiles. At the same time, passenger-vehicle imports and exports are feeling the effects of tariffs and changing automotive policy. Beyond the statistics, this episode asks the question that matters to trade professionals and business leaders: What do these numbers mean for your sourcing, markets, contracts, and growth strategy? Main Topic / Discussion U.S. trade is undergoing a structural shift. Ken and Tatiana walk through the latest trade data and explain how AI investment, tariffs, energy, automotive trade, and supply-chain realignment are changing which commodities, countries, and ports dominate U.S. commerce. One of the clearest signals is the extraordinary growth in computer imports. Through the first six months of 2026, the episode reports computer imports at approximately $194.4 billion, compared with roughly $101.4 billion during the same period in 2025. Much of that growth is tied to servers and infrastructure supporting AI data centers. Meanwhile, Mexico remains central to U.S. trade, while Taiwan, Vietnam, South Korea, and other Asian economies are becoming increasingly important within changing global supply chains. The automotive story looks different. Passenger-vehicle imports have declined amid tariffs, while exports to several major markets have also weakened. The discussion explores what that means for specialized automotive ports and for companies navigating higher costs and shifting demand. Ultimately, the hosts bring the data back to business strategy: understanding trade trends can help companies identify new export markets, rethink sourcing, anticipate supply-chain changes, and spot opportunities before competitors do. Key Takeaways • AI is rewriting the U.S. import rankings. Massive investment in servers and data-center infrastructure has pushed computers ahead of categories such as passenger vehicles and oil, illustrating how quickly AI investment is affecting physical trade flows. • Mexico's importance continues to grow. Mexico ranks as the leading U.S. trade partner in the data discussed, including its critical role in both imports and exports, while Port Laredo has again become the nation's leading trade gateway by value. • Supply chains continue shifting away from China. Taiwan, Vietnam, South Korea, and other Asian markets are taking increasingly prominent positions as tariffs, technology investment, and sourcing strategies reshape longstanding trade patterns. • Trade data should be a business-development tool. Importers, exporters, executives, and small-business owners can use commodity, country, and port data to identify growing markets, sourcing opportunities, emerging demand, and potential risks.

WATCH ▶️ Watch this episode on YouTube *** EPISODE DESCRIPTION In this episode, I'm joined by Aldo Heberlein. Aldo is a mortgage broker and the Founder of Enmortgage from Vancouver, BC, who became a broker in 2020, and has steadily increased his yearly volume from $5M in 2021, to $35M in 2025, and is on pace for $40M in 2026. Originally from Mexico, Aldo made his way to Vancouver a decade ago after living in Norway with his wife for 6 years. After his digital marketing business collapsed overnight when Facebook changed its policies, Aldo decided to pivot strategically into mortgages Starting with zero connections in Vancouver, Aldo built his client base by leveraging LinkedIn to connect with Spanish-speaking professionals navigating Vancouver's complex market. By specifically targeting the underserved Latino immigrant community, Aldo built loyal referral networks and sustainable growth rather than competing in saturated markets. After finding success on a routinely over-looked platform among brokers, Aldo offers to setup Realtors with their own automated LinkedIn reach-outs and email campaigns for their own businesses, creating tangible value add for all of his potential referral partners. While other brokers are always trying to speed things up, Aldo's approach to clients centres on slowing down, focusing on client education. On his 30 to 90 minute discovery calls, Aldo will underwrite the deal in real time, screen sharing spreadsheets and providing personalized analysis of each situation, building trust from the first meeting.

On today's podcast we're talking about Mexico's tequila industry, a booming sector that is centered in the state of Jalisco. Tequila exports tallied to over three and a half billion dollars in 2025. Tequila is traditionally made by chopping down spiky agave plants, roasting the plants' heavy cores, mashing the sweet-smelling pumpkin orange pulp for fermentation and distillation. It is now one of Mexico's most iconic products. On today's podcast host Nathaniel Parish Flannery speaks to Ted Genoways, the author of the new book Tequila Wars: Jose Cuervo And The Bloody Struggle For Mexico's Spirit.
In this episode, we kick things off in a New Orleans courtroom where jury selection has begun for a disbarred attorney accused of orchestrating the murder of a federal witness. Prosecutors allege Sean Alfortish conspired to kill Cornelius Garrison, a so-called "slammer" who intentionally sideswiped eighteen-wheelers in a sprawling staged truck crash scheme and later began cooperating with the FBI. The case is part of a massive federal probe that has charged sixty-three defendants in connection with an operation spanning over a decade, where participants recruited passengers and paid drivers to target big rigs carrying large commercial policies, then filed fraudulent lawsuits seeking insurance payouts. Next, we shift over to the rails where a coalition of seven Republican state attorneys general is urging the Surface Transportation Board to reject Union Pacific's proposed acquisition of Norfolk Southern. In a letter filed on August eleventh, the attorneys general argued the railroads have not demonstrated the merger would serve the public interest or strengthen rail-to-rail competition. The coalition took particular aim at the proposed Committed Gateway Pricing arrangement, contending it would apply to only zero point nine percent of U.S. rail traffic and could actually result in higher rates for many shippers. Finally, we head south to examine the critical role of cross-border trade as new Census Bureau data confirms Mexico's dominant position in U.S. commerce. Laredo, Texas, remained the nation's busiest international trade gateway, handling a massive thirty-six point five billion dollars in cross-border trade during June—accounting for more than one-third of all U.S.-Mexico commerce. The port's performance highlights its critical role as the primary conduit for automotive parts, vehicles, machinery, electronics and other manufactured goods moving between the two countries.

More than 129 million Amerians live with at least one chronic disease, and millions struggle with chronic pain, fatigue, digestive issues, autoimmune disorders, and other persistent symptoms that remain difficult to explain or treat. For Chronic Disease Awareness Day July 10, USA Today Bestselling author and renowned holistic physician Dr. Bradley Nelson explains: Why Pain and Illness Persists: The Link to Unresolved Emotions Scientists have increasingly documented links between trauma, chronic stress, and long-term health outcomes. Research from the CDC's landmark Adverse Childhood Experiences (ACE) studies found that childhood trauma is associated with increased risks for numerous chronic health conditions later in life, including heart disease, diabetes, depression, and other serious illnesses. More recent research discovered a pathway between physical pain and emotional suffering. Dr. Nelson, author of the bestselling books “The Emotion Code,” “The Body Code,” and “The Heart Code,” believes unresolved emotional experiences are a missing piece of the chronic illness puzzle. Over almost two decades of clinical experience, he developed methods designed to help people identify and release what he calls “trapped emotions” — emotional energies he believes contribute to physical and emotional distress. “Much of our suffering is due to negative emotional energies that have become ‘trapped' within us,” Dr. Brad says. “The Emotion Code is about finding those old emotions and releasing them forever.” He can discuss topics including: ● What science is discovering about the connection between trauma, stress, and physical and emotional health. ● How emotional experiences can become embedded in the body. ● Why adverse childhood experiences continue to affect health decades later. ● How people with chronic pain and illness can learn to identify and release trapped emotions. ● Help and resources available through DiscoverHealing.com, his company that has trained more than 15,000 healing practitioners worldwide. Dr. Brad has touched the lives of more than 500 million people through over 1,700 media appearances worldwide — including television, radio, podcasts, and live interviews. His simple yet powerful methods help individuals release the emotional energy of trauma, opening the door to improved health, emotional balance, and greater peace of mind.

In this special DanceSpeak x No Starving Artists crossover episode, we sit down with Moncell Durden for a candid conversation about the International Dance League and some of the bigger questions its inception brings to the dance community. Through Moncell's perspective, we dig into what dancers can consider when new professional opportunities emerge, from sustainability and understanding contracts to asking better questions before signing on the dotted line. This isn't legal advice, but rather an invitation for dancers to think critically, stay curious, and better understand the opportunities in front of them. A thoughtful conversation about IDL that ultimately asks a bigger question: how can dancers become more informed participants in their own careers?

Douglas MacGregor at www.macgregorwarrior.substack.com https://www.youtube.com/@macgregorwarriordiplomacy and https://nationalconversation.org/ No Existential Threat from China/Russia—America's Real Crisis Is Internal In a wide-ranging discussion, Col. Douglas MacGregor argues there are no existential military threats to the United States from China or Russia, contending the most serious dangers come from instability and organized crime in Mexico and the Caribbean Basin, weakened social cohesion, mass migration, and loss of American identity. He criticizes U.S. and NATO leadership over Ukraine, predicts Russia will ultimately defeat Ukraine, and calls Ukraine a "zombie state," while disputing portrayals of Putin as Hitler. MacGregor says defending U.S. borders and reducing overseas "forward presence" are essential in an age of precision missiles, and warns financial manipulation is postponing an inevitable economic reckoning driven by massive public and private debt. He claims the U.S. government is acting against Americans' interests, describes "Israel first" influence in Washington, and expects renewed action against Iran that could exhaust remaining U.S. capacity, while forecasting major geopolitical realignments in the Middle East. 00:00 Biggest Threats Today 01:40 No Military Existential Threat 04:17 Ukraine War Reality Check 05:34 Putin Hitler Narrative 06:14 Son Visits Russia 08:22 Why Russia Moves Slowly 11:30 Ukraine as Zombie State 12:49 Border Security Focus 15:15 End Expeditionary Warfare 17:33 Demographics and Migration 18:19 Army on the Border 20:30 American Identity Erosion 23:08 Immigration and Prosperity 24:46 Europe Identity Rebound 30:35 Assimilation or Collapse 31:55 Scarcity and Education 40:29 Government Not Ours 41:12 Israel First Policies 45:19 Rural Urban Civil Strife 48:20 Hybrid American Identity 49:20 Executive Power Creep 50:01 Historic Strongmen Examples 52:48 Trump and Donor Control 55:04 Corruption and Cromwell Fix 56:12 Midterms and ICE Backlash 58:10 Scarcity and Revolution Risks 01:00:52 Institutional Decay and Youth 01:05:31 Debt Reckoning and Vacuum 01:10:40 Iran War Paths and Alliances 01:17:02 Gaza as Regional Catalyst 01:18:02 Where to Follow MacGregor 01:19:08 Military Reform and Four Stars 01:24:57 National Conversation Closing
Power leaves its mark on the places that hold it.Across royal palaces, castles, chapels, staircases and private chambers, stories have endured of monarchs, queens, servants, soldiers and courtiers who seem unable to leave the world behind.This episode explores some of the most atmospheric royal hauntings from Britain and beyond, from Anne Boleyn's ghost at the Tower of London, Blickling Hall, Hever Castle and Windsor, to the haunted galleries of Hampton Court Palace, where Jane Seymour, Catherine Howard and Sybil Penn are said to remain.The journey moves through the darker edges of royal history: the Princes in the Tower, the murder of David Rizzio at Holyroodhouse, the restless spirits of Glamis Castle, the Romanov tragedy, the haunted legacy of Versailles, and ghostly accounts connected to palaces in France, Mexico, China, Sweden, Denmark, Russia and Austria.Blending historical storytelling with witness accounts and enduring folklore, this documentary-style episode asks why royal residences so often become places of haunting. Are these apparitions echoes of trauma, glimpses into the past, or something more personal - a final trace of those who lived, ruled, suffered and died behind palace walls?Episode Written by Melissa WestEnjoyed the episode?

Going global stopped being a phase-two project. The brands winning now are global on day one. Going global profitably is the harder business, and the levers that decide it are the ones nobody puts on a slide.Matthew Merrilees has spent two decades on the operational side of cross-border, starting at DHL and now running North America for Global-e. He and Rick walk the international P&L line by line. Payment acquiring, which is bigger than most operators assume. Duty and tax. Classification. Drawback.The math changed underneath everyone. US de minimis went from $800 to zero, so every inbound parcel is dutiable and every SKU needs an HS code. The EU now applies a three-euro charge per unique HS code below the 150 euro threshold, which quietly wrecks any sitewide promotion running a mixed catalog. Seventy-five regulatory changes in the US alone, by Matthew's count.Also covered: why most brands refund duties and taxes to returning international shoppers and never reclaim them, why the Section 321 play through Mexico is finished, what a real multi-carrier setup looks like in practice, and the thinking behind Global-e buying Passport.This episode is sponsored by Avalara.

Episode 350 is packed with hilarious stories, passionate debates, and one hypothetical that will have you questioning how much your freedom is really worth.We kick things off with Luis recapping his trip to Mexico, where he reconnects with family, shares stories from a small-town ranch lifestyle, talks about drinking mezcal, and explains why everyone somehow ends up being related—or at least feels like family. It's a fun conversation filled with travel stories, cultural experiences, and plenty of laughs.From there, we dive into the world of Spider-Man and the Marvel Cinematic Universe, discussing whether someone who's never followed the MCU can still enjoy the latest Spider-Man movie. Is it worth jumping into the multiverse without doing hours of homework first? We share our thoughts and hear what the live audience has to say.Next, we react to a frustrating youth sports situation involving a canceled event and a controversial refund policy. After paying hundreds of dollars in advance, one parent only received a partial refund after the event was canceled, leading us to question transparency, fairness, and whether organizers should be handling situations like this differently.One of the biggest conversations of the episode centers around friendship, communication, and personal boundaries. We discuss what happens when someone repeatedly pushes a topic after they've clearly been told, "I don't want to talk about it." Is it just friendly curiosity? Entertainment? Or is it crossing a line? We explore the importance of respecting boundaries, reading social cues, and knowing when it's time to let a conversation go.Finally, we tackle one of our favorite hypothetical scenarios:You receive $45,000 every single week... but you can never leave your house.At first it sounds like the easiest money you'll ever make—but once you really think about it, things get complicated. Could you stay inside for a month? A year? Forever? Would the money outweigh the isolation, or would your mental health eventually win? We break down every angle and reveal how long we honestly think we'd last.This episode is full of laughs, honest conversations, listener interaction, and the random tangents you've come to expect from The After Show But Later. Whether you're here for the comedy, the thought-provoking discussions, or just hanging out with us each week, we're glad you're here.We want to hear from YOU!

How might a diagnosis of a rare disease and brain tumor change your life? Risa August was an Ironman athlete when unexplained symptoms began appearing. Her body felt off. She was tired. The medical establishment initially offered no answers. After years of being dismissed by doctors, she was finally diagnosed with acromegaly, a rare hormonal disorder caused by an enlarged pituitary gland. It was a chronic disorder she'd have to learn to live with. Rather than let chronic illness define her, Risa became a fierce advocate for her health. And she decided to cycle the Pacific Coast from Mexico to Canada. Her book The Road Unpaved: Border to Border with a Brain Tumor and a Bike is a story of setting enormous goals, working within the limitations of an unfamiliar body, and never allowing your enthusiasm for life to dim.

Alexis Lalas and David Mosse are back with a new episode of State of the Union! Today, we begin the show reacting to Mexico defeating the USA 2-0 in the CONCACAF U-20 championship. Alexi and Mosse discuss the loss and what it says about the state of the USA's youth teams before getting into some young talent that was NOT at this tournament that we could see make an impact going forward.

Could getting dental treatment in Mexico actually be worth it? I share my seven-to-eight-month Invisalign journey, including why I decided to fix my overbite, how much I paid, what the treatment was really like, and the biggest challenge I faced: not being able to snack whenever I wanted! I also explain how Invisalign works, compare it with traditional braces, and talk about the functional benefits I noticed beyond having a better-looking smile. May and I also discuss our experiences with healthcare outside the United States and why a clinic that looks less luxurious doesn't necessarily provide lower-quality care. If you've ever considered getting dental or medical treatment abroad, this episode will give you a firsthand look at what the experience can be like.Key Takeaways:Why I decided to get Invisalign and how correcting my bite improved more than just the appearance of my smile.What Invisalign is actually like—including the cost, treatment timeline, discomfort, eating restrictions, and what happens after the active treatment ends.What I learned from getting dental treatment in Mexico and why I think it's worth researching options abroad before assuming treatment in the U.S. is the only choice.Relevant Links And Additional Resources:210 – El Camino A La Visión 20/20 Con Jaime | The Path To 20/20 Vision With Jaime171 – Turismo Médico En México – Experiencias Y Costos | Medical Tourism In Mexico – Experiences And Costs167 – La Cirugía Y Recuperación De May | May's Surgery And RecoveryLevel up your Spanish with our Podcast MembershipGet the full transcript of each episode so you don't miss a wordListen to an extended breakdown section in English going over the most important words and phrasesTest your comprehension with a multiple choice quizIf you enjoy Learn Spanish and Go, please consider subscribing, rating, and reviewing our podcast on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, Google Podcasts, or Pandora.

Double Tap Double Tap - Ep 474 August 10, 2026 Presented by This episode of Double Tap is brought to you by: Foxtrot Mike (Code: WLSISLIFE) C&G Holsters (Code: WLSISLIFE) Gideon Optics (Code: WLSISLIFE) Midwest Industries (Code: WLSISLIFE) Blue Alpha Giveaways!! GAW Text Dear WLS or Reviews +1 743 500 2171 Public Show Titles Dear WLS Question from Ben B from Kansas Ben B (TLDR from last week: Bought a Bergara B14-HMR that wouldn't group and had a crooked-looking scope. After replacing the rail, rings, and checking the scope, a gunsmith finally discovered the rifle's mounting holes were drilled at a 45° angle from the factory. The manufacturing defect that made proper alignment impossible.)Continuation of the story from where it cut off last week- We looked in there and about half the threaded hole in the receiver was visible through the rail. Well shit… We tried a different rail and it was the same. I decided to contact Bergara to see if they would fix it. I started a warranty case with them and they sent an RMA form and asked me to ship the rifle to them. I sent it over and assumed that everything would be straightened out. After several weeks with zero updates, I called and asked for some kind of information. I even gave them exact instructions on how to replicate the problem. They said they would update me when they got it into their system and when they got started on the inspections. After they had it for a month they finally shipped it back and their conclusion was that the rifle was in spec. About a million emails later and both sides being stubborn, I gave up. Obviously they weren't going to fix it and I was at my wit's end. I brought it back to the gunsmith and had him drill and re tap the receiver holes to a big enough size to line it up. In spec my ass. Ever since then the Bergara name has left a bad taste in my mouth. I'm not really on social media and don't know how to get through how bad of an experience I had with them because I think people need to know. I am sorry for the long story but I already left a lot of details out. Just remember you asked for this Shawn Question from Bama Chris I know this will take forever And I'm expecting And answer sometime in about 2029 … Just found out the other day from Savage that my current credit card provider that used to be discover card and is now Capital One is a bunch of anti-gun Cucks … I need to cancel My over 20-year account With this credit card company Actually I have two accounts Cancel them both And find a credit card company That is 2a friendly Any suggestions… This is for Customer-Based Credit line Not Business related Processing. Wouldn't man if it was A car that instead of me getting cash back All of that went towards donations Second Amendment Foundation or other Friendly OrganizationsThanks Five squares second call defense is awesome High Point rules and Jeremy is my spirit animal Question from Anonymous Coward from Kentucky Question from Coward with anonymity from Virginia. I know you have probably said it a hundred times, but I have no experience with 3d printing. What is the best starter printer that's user friendly and capable. Great show, thanks! Question from Peter J from WA Peter J from WA, Dear WLS, I'm interested in either buying a factory ported pistol or having one I own custom ported. Is it really worth the hype? Im debating on either getting a CZ ported P10c or getting my CZ P10F ported. Use case would be more for range but would carry the ported p10c since I carry a non ported one currently. I more than with do what Jeremy or Nick tell me what to do. Thanks Question from eTexNerd from Texas Dear wls, from eTexNerdFirst a big Ole howdy from the upper east side of Texas to Tom Bowers! Question: once Bowers group is running production in Texas, won't I be able to buy his suppressors without federal redtape? I think Texas passed a law to allow intrastate transfer of suppressots made within Texas. I'm a little vague on the legal details but figure Tom being in the industry would know more. Maybe the cartoon savage legal hawk can explain this too. VIVA LA TEJAS!

Mexican composer Gabriela Ortiz won three Grammys for her 2024 album Revolución diamantina, and this week sees the work's UK premiere at the BBC Proms, when conductor Gustavo Dudamel leads the second of two LA Philharmonic Proms on Wednesday. Gabriela joins Nuala in the studio to discuss her career and how this work was inspired by Mexico's 2019 Glitter Revolution, the nationwide feminist protests sparked after the rape of a teenage girl by four police officers, during which activists famously covered Mexico City's security chief in pink glitter. A hospital in a rural area of England has suspended its maternity services from today because of unsafe levels of staffing. Instead of going to the North Devon District hospital in Barnstaple, women in labour will have to travel more than 50 miles to Exeter. More than 15,000 people have signed a petition against the plans that was initiated by the Liberal Democrat MP for North Devon, Ian Roome. He joins presenter Nuala McGovern along with Jemima Knight who is currently pregnant with her third baby and lives in the area.Imprisonment for Public Protection sentences – or IPPs - were brought in by the Labour government in 2005, resulting in many prisoners not being given a fixed release date. One woman given a two year sentence spent sixteen years behind bars, with no idea of when she would eventually be released. They were abolished in 2012, but figures show more than 2,000 people are still impacted. As Prime Minister Andy Burnham looks into how they will play a part in his plan to reduce the prison population, we hear from Dr Muin Boase, the barrister who led the recent complaint to the UN on the continued use of this sentencing and how it's impacted women. How can we get children to read more over the summer? It's officially the National Year of Reading and evidence suggests that reading more over the holidays can help children hit the ground running in September when schools go back. But for many busy parents, getting children engaged in books and actively choosing reading over the lure of a tablet, TV or anything else can be a challenge. Liberty Venn, founder of the Children's Book Project, and award-winning author and former primary school teacher Luan Goldie join us to discuss the benefits and share their tips for getting children reading more.

Photo: Carlson Center in Fairbanks, Alaska will host the 2028 Arctic Winter Games. (Quintin Soloviev / Wikimedia) The Arctic Winter Games International Committee has chosen Fairbanks, Alaska to host the games in 2028. Organizers chose to buck an April decision that would have moved to a three-year cycle temporarily. The announcement means the next Arctic Winter Games, which had been set for 2029, will happen a year earlier than was planned. A statement from the committee's president says an “extraordinary” proposal from Fairbanks this spring made it possible to return to the traditional two-year cycle. “Working with the Fairbanks North Star Borough, the Fairbanks North Star Borough School District, the State of Alaska, and numerous community partners, the Host Society demonstrated the community’s readiness to host the Games.” The international competition brings together about 2,000 youth participants from across the Circumpolar North, including Alaska, Canada, and Nordic countries. The multi-sport event and Indigenous cultural celebration started in 1970 and features sports like hockey, skiing, and curling as well as Dene games, such as the finger pull and snow snake. The competition took place in Whitehorse, Canada last winter. It was last hosted in Alaska in the Matanuska-Susitna Borough in 2024. The games have come to Fairbanks three times – twice in the 1980s and again in 2014. The Northwest Territories had been slated to host the 2028 iteration of the event, but withdrew its bid in 2024. Its Municipal and Community Affairs Minister cited reasons like insufficient capacity and facilities, the Canadian Broadcasting Corporation reported at the time. (Courtesy Tohono O'odham Nation) Over the weekend, a tribe in southern Arizona warned that border wall contractors may soon encroach upon their lands. As KJZZ's Gabriel Pietrorazio reports, the tribe says it is ready to deal with trespassers. According to the Tohono O'odham Code, the tribe may impose up to a $5,000 fine for civil trespassing. Tribal police would escort any offender off the reservation sharing a 62-mile boundary with Mexico. The U.S. Department of Homeland Security, led by Secretary Markwayne Mullin (Cherokee) is looking to erect a border wall there. The Tohono O'odham Nation has sued, claiming its sovereignty would be violated should the Trump administration be allowed to proceed. While Customs and Border Protection is aware of the tribe's warning, the federal agency declined to comment due to ongoing litigation. Grand Staircase Escalante National Monument in Utah. (Courtesy U.S. Bureau of Land Management) Native Tribes and conservation groups are preparing to sue the Trump administration after the president signed orders to sharply reduce the size of two national monuments in Utah. Mark Richardson has details. Republicans are celebrating the move, while Tribes and environmentalists say it strips protections from culturally significant public lands. Gov. Spencer Cox (R-UT) and Utah’s congressional delegation joined the president to celebrate the signing of the orders. Steve Bloch, legal director for the Southern Utah Wilderness Alliance, calls conservatives’ vision for the state’s wildlands “wrong-headed”. “(U.S. Sen.) Mike Lee (R-UT)’s vision of the American West is not one with sweeping federal public lands. His view of the American West is Utah and other western states should be the South Carolina of the West, with almost no public land.” President Trump reduced the area of the Bears Ears and Grand Staircase-Escalante National Monuments by about three million acres from their current boundaries – roughly 90% of the original protected area. Polling shows that 65% of Utah voters support keeping Bears Ears and Grand Staircase-Escalante protected as national monuments. Utah Republicans have long pushed to reduce or eliminate the two national monuments to allow mining and other economic development on the land. President Donald Trump speaks at the Utah State Capitol in 2017 before issuing a proclamation reducing boundaries for the Bears Ears and Grand Staircase-Escalante national monuments. Trump first reduced the monuments in 2017 during his first term, but President Joe Biden restored the areas. Bloch says he believes Trump is misinformed about the value of the monuments. “I think he really didn’t know what he was talking about. The line that everybody is hooked into that, as he understood it, you couldn’t hunt, fish, or walk in the monuments, and that is so demonstrably false.” The Bears Ears Inter-Tribal Coalition, formed by the Hopi, Zuni, Ute Mountain Ute, Navajo Nation and Ute Tribes, called it a major setback to an extraordinary collaboration on public lands between Tribal Nations and federal agencies. Bloch says it was a bitter pill for the tribes to swallow. “The tribes are angry. They are really disappointed. It’s just a lot of pain from yet another attempt by the nation to try and undo their footprint.” Get National Native News delivered to your inbox daily. Sign up for our daily newsletter today.

Episode 203 of Wrestling Tonight centers on a question WWE may eventually have to answer with Dominik Mysterio: what happens when someone develops into a legitimate main-event talent faster than the company seems prepared to treat him like one? Dominik has now held the AAA Mega Championship since September 12, 2025, a reign that has reached 333 days as of August 11, 2026, and his progression has become increasingly difficult to dismiss as simply the product of heat, presentation or the Mysterio name. We discuss why Dominik has the ingredients of a future WWE main eventer, but also why WWE's recent history of starting and stopping momentum makes it fair to question whether the company will fully capitalize on what it has created. That conversation opens into a larger criticism of WWE's ability to develop new stars and, more importantly, keep them hot once the audience begins responding. Roman Reigns has argued that WWE had two years after he stepped away from the championship picture to give other wrestlers opportunities to get over, but that idea deserves more scrutiny than simply placing the responsibility on the talent. Wrestlers cannot grab a proverbial brass ring that creative repeatedly moves out of reach, and getting over is not exclusively an individual accomplishment when television time, meaningful programs, victories, opponents and sustained creative investment are controlled by the promotion. Roman Reigns and CM Punk can produce a memorable nine or ten-minute segment because they have enormous presence and established equity with the audience, but WWE also has to create the conditions that allow somebody from the next generation to eventually develop that same equity. Professional wrestling history itself complicates the argument that stars simply force their way to the top. Steve Austin did not become Stone Cold because WWE immediately handed him the company and waited for him to succeed. During the period when his momentum was developing in late 1996 and early 1997, Steve Austin was consistently working with Shawn Michaels, Bret Hart, The Undertaker, Vader, Sycho Sid, Mankind and other established names. He won the 1997 Royal Rumble, challenged Sycho Sid for the WWF World Heavyweight Championship on house shows, worked repeatedly with Shawn Michaels and remained intertwined with Bret Hart even when he was losing matches. The company did not need Steve Austin to win everything for him to become important; it needed to keep putting him in situations where becoming important was possible. That historical context is why Dominik Mysterio is such an interesting test case. His connection to wrestling history is almost literal, because Zilla Fatu has recalled growing up backstage at WWE events alongside Dominik while their fathers were wrestling, describing the two of them running around backstage, getting into the ring and practicing the 619 as children. Zilla Fatu even remembered Dominik as the wrestler's child he connected with most during that period. What was once two kids playing wrestling backstage has now become part of a much larger generational story, with Dominik holding AAA's top championship while WWE controls 51 percent of the promotion following its acquisition of AAA in 2025. That ownership makes Dominik Mysterio's AAA run more significant than a disconnected excursion. WWE announced its agreement to acquire AAA during WrestleMania 41 weekend, the transaction closed on August 1, 2025, and the relationship has since expanded through Worlds Collide, AAA programming on Fox properties in Mexico and Latin America beginning in 2026, and a Mattel AAA action figure line scheduled for fall 2027. Dominik defeating El Hijo del Vikingo for the AAA Mega Championship at Worlds Collide on September 12, 2025 therefore places him directly inside WWE's larger investment in the Mexican promotion, and his lengthy reign provides an opportunity to determine whether WWE views him merely as a valuable character or as someone capable of eventually carrying a major promotion at the highest level. We also compare that approach with the way AEW has positioned Kyle Fletcher as a future cornerstone, because developing a main-event wrestler requires more than identifying somebody as talented. The audience needs repeated evidence that the promotion believes the wrestler belongs at that level, and the booking has to reinforce that idea long enough for perception to become reality. That does not mean every prospect should win constantly or immediately become world champion, but it does mean losses, programs and television appearances should contribute to an identifiable trajectory rather than repeatedly resetting momentum. That is ultimately why WWE has a Dominik Mysterio problem, although it is a potentially very good problem to have. Dominik has lineage, character, experience, sustained championship credibility in AAA and years of television development behind him, and the question is increasingly less about whether he can become a main-event wrestler than whether WWE will provide the sustained creative environment necessary for him to become one. If the company believes the next generation needs to step forward, Dominik Mysterio represents an opportunity to prove that WWE is willing to meet emerging talent halfway rather than waiting for someone to somehow become undeniable despite the booking around them.

What an 83-Year-Old's Daily Habits Reveal About Aging Most people assume chronic disease is just a normal part of getting older. Michael Dorfman, an 83 year old health and nutrition coach, has spent the last 18 years proving otherwise, and he's still playing competitive pickleball to show for it. If you've ever wondered whether it's too late to change your trajectory, or whether the version of aging you've been told to expect is the only one available, this episode will reframe the question entirely. In This Episode: Why chronic disease usually starts decades before it's diagnosed, not the year it shows up The friend's heart disease reversal that changed the direction of Michael's life and work Why doctors are trained for sick care, not health care, and what that means for your decisions What the Blue Zones research actually found in common across five unrelated places on earth Why fiber, not protein, is the real deficiency in most people's diets The daily practices Michael uses now: breathwork, intermittent fasting, cold and hot therapy, and movement over formal exercise What changed when Michael stopped judging his father, and what that taught him about everyone else Key Insights: The body keeps a record long before symptoms appear. Type 2 diabetes in children and colon cancer in men under 50 are signs the timeline has shifted, not random bad luck. A surgeon's job is surgery. Lifestyle medicine is rarely part of the training, which means the responsibility for prevention sits with you, not your doctor. The Blue Zones populations didn't exercise in the way we think of it. Their environments simply required constant, ordinary movement. Letting go of judgment, of a parent, a stranger, a different point of view, was one of the latest and most valuable lessons of Michael's life. About Michael Dorfman: Michael J. Dorfman is an 83-year-old certified Health & Nutrition Life Coach, investigative author, and thriving example of plant-based longevity. Based in San Miguel de Allende, Mexico, he has spent the last 17+ years living—and coaching—on how to age vibrantly without chronic disease. Michael adopted a vegetarian diet in 1976, transitioned to a whole-food, plant-based lifestyle in 2008, and earned his certification in Plant-Based Nutrition in 2019. His book, The Thriving Vegan, exposes how the food and pharmaceutical industries mislead the public—and how individuals can reclaim their health. In his latest book, The Longevity Wellness Revolution, Michael shares practical tools from the Blue Zones, as well as his discoveries, including breathwork, intermittent fasting, stress reduction, and more. He's passionate about showing that it's never too late to live with energy, purpose, and joy.
