Podcasting 2.0 August 28th 2026 Episode 269 - "Verbal Pollution" Shownotes ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 00 - DATABASE SURGERY WEEK — AND THE THIRD EMERGENCY OF THE MONTH The lead, and it's Dave's: Saturday 22 Aug — "#api I'm in the middle of a big refactor with the Podcast Index database schema. If I do my job right, nobody will notice it. But, the side effect will be an overall huge increase in the consistency of the data (duplicates, url change lag, etc)." @dave — the big schema refactor (22 Aug) Wednesday night: "Podcast Index database surgery will begin in the morning." Thursday: "Step 1. Expect a brief api outage. It should last just a few minutes." — then "Done" — then "#api Adding a very large table index..." — and finally, Thursday evening: "Finished. Butt is intact." (6 favourites. The board's favourite status update of the month.) What Adam should ask: what actually changed under the hood, what does "consistency" buy an app developer in practice, and is there anything a host or an app should do differently now that duplicates and url-change lag are being cleaned up?

Business and finance news from the Asia-Pacific. Asian equities declined as investors cut exposure to technology shares ahead of earnings this week that will test confidence in the artificial intelligence trade. The MSCI Asia Pacific equities gauge slipped 0.5%, with South Korean chip bellwethers SK Hynix Inc. and Samsung Electronics Co. contributing most to the decline. The losses followed a selloff in semiconductor giants on Wall Street that dragged the Nasdaq 100 Index down nearly 1% on Monday, while Nvidia Corp. posted its longest losing streak since 2022. We speak to Mark Cudmore, Global Leader of the Markets Live Team at Bloomberg News.

Meer dan de helft van de Nederlandse, particuliere beleggers denkt dat de AI-gekte eigenlijk een zeepbel is. Dat blijkt uit onderzoek van de Rabobank. Een flink aantal, maar liefst 57 procent. Alleen ontdekte de bank iets geks: een deel van diezelfde groep blijft wél lekker AI-aandelen kopen. We hebben het deze aflevering over dat bizarre gedrag. Waarom zou je je geld ergens in stoppen als het een zeepbel is? En in welke aandelen stoppen ze hun geld in? We zoeken het voor je uit. Hebben we het ook over Nvidia. De Nvidia-vrees om precies te zijn. Al zeven handelsdagen op rij is de beurskoers gedaald. Dat is de langste achtereenvolgende daling sinds 2022. Ook hebben we het over Operation Economic Outcast. Onder die naam willen de Amerikanen Iran slopen, economisch isoleren. Dus geen bommen, maar een boycot. Over Trump gesproken: hij blijkt fan van SpaceX te zijn, want hij heeft aandelen van het bedrijf van Elon Musk gekocht.

You went looking for Infinite Banking, or maybe "be your own bank," and a max funded IUL came back as the answer: market-linked growth, tax-free access, no downside. On paper, it sounds like whole life, only better. https://youtu.be/UMTiXDmYNok A max funded IUL is an indexed universal life policy funded at or near the maximum premium the IRS allows before the contract becomes a modified endowment contract. It's not a separate product, but a funding decision applied to an ordinary IUL that pushes cash value growth harder while offsetting internal costs. Max funding gets invoked to explain why an IUL didn't work: you just didn't fund it hard enough. But a product that needs funding to its legal ceiling to perform as illustrated says something about the product, not just the strategy. Max funding improves the odds. It doesn't remove the fragility underneath. What Is a Max Funded IUL?Why Max Funded IULs Are Marketed So AggressivelyThe IUL Fees the Illustration Doesn't Show YouWhy Your Credited Return Is Not the Index's ReturnThe Rising Cost of Insurance Inside an IULCan a Max Funded IUL Still Lapse?Max Funding a Whole Life Policy InsteadWhen Max Funding an IUL Makes SenseWhat to Ask Before You Fund OneBook a Strategy CallFrequently Asked QuestionsWhat is a max funded IUL?What does max funding an IUL actually mean?How does a max funded IUL work?Is a max funded IUL better than a 401(k) or Roth IRA?Can a max funded IUL still lapse?Can you max fund a whole life policy instead? Key takeaways: Max funding is a funding strategy, not a distinct product. There's no "max funded IUL" you buy off the shelf. A zero-crediting year isn't a flat year: fees still come out, and growth compounds off a permanently lower base. The insurer can change your cap, participation rate, and spread once a year, without asking first. Max funding defers lapse risk. It doesn't eliminate it. Apply the same instinct to whole life, and you get the guarantees an IUL was never built to offer. What Is a Max Funded IUL? A max funded IUL, sometimes called a maximum funded indexed universal life policy, is an indexed universal life policy funded at or near the highest premium level the IRS permits before crossing into modified endowment contract status. There's no separate product line behind the term, just this definition. A few people write it as "max funded indexed universal life" or shorthand it to "max fund IUL"; all of it points to the same funding decision. Every universal life policy quotes two premium figures: a minimum, the least you could pay and still have a shot at sustaining the death benefit if the index cooperates, and a maximum, the most the IRS allows before the tax treatment changes. Max funding means paying near the top of that range. More dollars in means more dollars exposed to crediting: 10% on $100,000 of premium is $10,000; the same 10% on $10,000 is $1,000. One term worth pinning down: a modified endowment contract, or MEC. The IRS caps how much premium can go into a permanent policy while preserving tax-free access. Cross that limit and the policy still grows tax-deferred, but access gets taxed, including policy loans, tax-free in every other context. (Consult a licensed tax professional on how §7702 and §7702A apply to your contract.) The distinction everything else here rests on: this isn't a different kind of policy, just a decision about how much premium goes into an IUL. You'll sometimes see it called an overfunded IUL, which is just another name for the same funding choice, not a separate product to shop for. And it's worth flagging now: you can max fund a whole life policy the same way. For a full breakdown of how an indexed universal life policy works, see what an indexed universal life policy is. Why Max Funded IULs Are Marketed So Aggressively Before picking apart max funding, it's worth saying plainly: the appeal is real. A max funded IUL has genuine features that draw in smart, financially literate people, and pretending otherwise would make the rest of this article dishonest. It offers tax-deferred growth with tax-free access through policy loans, no annual contribution ceiling like a 401(k) or Roth IRA imposes since capacity is governed by the death benefit purchased, a 0% floor marketed as downside protection, an included death benefit, and in strong index years, the possibility of double-digit credited growth. The most effective version shows up as a retirement play: a tax-free income vehicle for people phased out of Roth eligibility or maxed on contribution room elsewhere. We won't unpack that comparison; we cover IUL-for-retirement here. Bruce and I both make this concession without hesitation: the instinct behind max funding is correct. It flips the usual "buy the most death benefit for the least premium" logic on its head and treats a permanent policy as a place to store and access capital instead. The open question isn't whether to max fund, but which product deserves it. The IUL Fees the Illustration Doesn't Show You IUL fees are disclosed, sitting in the contract right now, but rarely walked through in the illustration or the sales conversation, so buyers routinely agree to a fee structure they've never once seen quantified. Give the product its due: disclosure is a genuine point in its favor. Whole life keeps most costs internal, priced against guarantees, so an actuary can tell you exactly what those costs do to cash value over time. An IUL has no such floor, so the same load fee taken from a smaller balance next year does more damage, and the shortfall compounds forward. One misconception worth correcting: indexed crediting doesn't mean your premium is invested in the index. The insurer manages the underlying assets and hedges its own exposure as it sees fit. Surrender charges also tend to run larger on an IUL than on whole life, relevant only if you actually surrender; whole life's rough equivalent is simply lower cash value in the early years. This is where max funding earns its name: it exists to outrun these fees through sheer volume, which means the strategy's own proponents are conceding the drag is real. The illustration never asks what happens if the funding doesn't outrun it. For the full risk picture beyond fees, see dangerous truths about IUL risks. Why Your Credited Return Is Not the Index's Return The 0% floor isn't free. It's purchased with three mechanisms the insurer can adjust annually: a cap ceilings the credited rate, a participation rate credits only a percentage of the gain, and a spread is a hurdle the index must clear before anything credits. The worked numbers are below. One "uncapped" strategy runs a three-year point-to-point at 60% participation: the index gains 30% over three years, but the policyholder is credited 18%, roughly 6% annualized. "Unlimited" is doing marketing work the mechanics don't back up. MechanismWhat it doesWorked exampleCapCeilings the credited rate15% cap, index gains 25%, credited 15%Participation rateCredits a percentage of the gain80% of a 15% cap, credited 12%SpreadDeducts a hurdle before crediting3% spread, index gains 8%, credited 5%0% floorPrevents index-driven loss, fees still deductedIndex falls 15%, credited 0%, fees still come out The insurer can change the cap, participation rate, and spread once a year, without your consent. It's disclosed, not misconduct, just a term rarely explained. With fifteen indexes and multiple crediting strategies on offer, a policyholder can face well over a hundred permutations, which reads as control and functions as confusion. Now the zero-year mechanics, the single most important thing to understand here. A zero-crediting year is not a flat year: fees still come out, pulled from a smaller cash value, and the next year's crediting compounds off that lower base. A zero in year eight of a $3-million, thirty-year projection doesn't just mean missing that year's interest , it resets the compounding base permanently, and when the index drops, the insurer's hedging costs rise too, so you lose nothing to the index and still lose money. Agents say zero is your hero, then illustrate 30 years at a flat assumed rate, often 6.45% or 6.85%, sometimes a more conservative 5.25% column, without a single zero year anywhere in the projection. Both claims can't be true at once. Average isn't actual either: $100,000 down 20% is $80,000, and up 20% from there is $96,000, not $100,000. For an independent take on these mechanics, see Todd Langford's analysis of indexed universal life. The Rising Cost of Insurance Inside an IUL IUL insurance charges are priced as annually renewable term. The cost re-prices every year based on age, and it climbs. Max funding puts more premium in to help absorb it, but doesn't change the fact it keeps rising. The climb accelerates: something like $10 more from age 55 to 56, then $14, then $22, then $35. Whole life prices base-policy mortality cost across the entire life of the contract with a defined endowment point built in, so early years cost more relative to a small cash value and later years cost less relative to one grown large enough to absorb them. Bruce has personally seen carrier illustrations where mortality cost inside an IUL becomes severe around age 77, with the in-force death benefit graph turning sharply downward within a couple of years, even under continued maximum contributions. That's his observation from specific illustrations, not a universal threshold. That leaves the policyholder in a rough spot decades in: pay materially more than illustrated, or give up a policy funded faithfully for thirty years. This is the cost max funding is supposed to outrun, and the one cost that climbs on a schedule funding can't influence. Can a Max Funded IUL Still Lapse? Max funding reduces lapse risk. It does not remove it,...

Podcasting 2.0 August 21st 2026 Episode 268 - "Dead Hanging Safari" It's always DNS or CORS - and how your right brain is gating bad robots Show Notes ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 00 - THE LOCATION TAG — SPEC TO DATASET TO GLOBE IN 48 HOURS The lead, and it's yours: Wednesday afternoon Dave posted — "There is a new locations data set on the public datasets page... The db tables are still back-filling since I updated the db and aggregators to support the new tag format. After a couple of days it should be mostly complete." He cc'd @james, @alberto, @js and then @DavidMarzalC. That cc list is the whole story — within 48 hours all four had done something with it. @dave — the locations dataset post (20 Aug) The shipping trail: web-ui PR #608, "add locations export to public data sets," branch public_datasets → merged to master the same afternoon. This is the first public dataset built on the new location tag format rather than the old one. Then somebody built the map. By Friday morning Alberto had radar.rss.io/#globe up — a spinning globe of podcasts made in or about places on earth, drawn from the free dataset, most entries carrying full OpenStreetMap references. James put it in front of the OpenStreetMap community directly: "One for excellent people using @openstreetmap." James's review, and the two asks: "This is so cool. Really shows the power of the location tag. The globe — would be nice to add filters to that (made in vs about). Or maybe just colour the dots differently? The next trick would be some OSM lookups on the IDs to work out what the places are."

Rick Watson and Jessica Lesesky work through the reported talks, and Rick lands firmly on the skeptical side. Stripe grows around 34% a year by the hosts' count, throws off billions in cash flow, and has spent years buying up pieces of the stack, including Indie Hackers, Payable, Index, and Lemon Squeezy. It runs in stablecoins, crypto, and AI routing. The one thing missing is a consumer relationship, which is what PayPal and especially Venmo are supposed to supply. Jessica's counterpoint is that the PayPal button already lost that fight to Apple Pay and Google Pay, partly because she forgets her login half the time. Rick's objection is harder. PayPal has not grown since 2021, so this is a volume purchase rather than a growth one.The Shopify piece is where merchants have something at stake. Shopify has put over $350 million into Stripe and accounts for roughly 13% of Stripe's volume, and it built Shop Pay while PayPal watched, which Rick calls one of the most criminal things to happen in payments in twenty five years and intends as a compliment. Shopify still routes partner payouts to app developers and integrators through PayPal. PayPal's European coverage reaches markets Stripe's does not. Every one of these companies is renting something from a competitor.Jessica's read for merchants is the payments version of the argument she makes about sales channels. You take Shop Pay because at this point it is universal, and then you go looking for diversification everywhere else. What she leaves unanswered is how a brand holds onto a customer when the checkout, the wallet, and the payout rails all belong to somebody upstream.The Watson Weekly Weekend episode is sponsored by Avalara.

In this episode, Ben Felix and Dan Bortolotti take on 10 of the biggest myths in personal finance and investing. From the idea that young people should save every possible dollar to benefit from compounding, to assumptions about economic growth, dividends, index funds, valuation ratios, stock picking, bonds, gold, and homeownership, they examine the subtle details that can make  conventional wisdom misleading.   Ben and Dan explore why personal finance is often about balance rather than absolute rules, why spending decisions can be just as important as saving decisions, and how investors can confuse familiar stories with useful financial principles. Along the way, they discuss consumption smoothing, marginal utility, total returns, diversification, valuation, risk, inflation, and the trade-offs between renting and owning.   They also announce a new podcast initiative: future episodes featuring PWL clients discussing their experiences and the impact that financial planning has had on their lives.   Key Points From This Episode: (0:00:00) Highlights.

Real Monterey Car WeekIn this Mercedes People carrier Episode 447, Chrissy's dislocated pinky is Citroen better, Chris drives on some rocks, Mental is drowning in ACVW parts and Tim gets real itchy. Actually we bring on Neal Losey on to talk about Concourse d'Lemons, and why you should go check it out!Forget million-dollar hypercars. The best part of Monterey Car Week might be the cars nobody else would let onto the lawn.Five-time National Effing Champion Neal Losey joins Everyone Racers to take us inside the 2026 Concours d'Lemons, the gloriously disreputable counterpoint to the Pebble Beach Concours d'Elegance—and possibly the purest celebration of weird car culture anywhere.While Pebble Beach is polishing priceless classics, Concours d'Lemons fills the Seaside City Hall lawn with forgotten marques, questionable engineering, tiny cars, enormous drivers, former demolition-derby survivors and automotive decisions that seemed like a good idea at the time.In other words: our people.Neal tells us what it's actually like inside Concours d'Lemons during Monterey Car Week, including the packed crowds, bizarre awards, Lemons racers, rally cars, kids painting race cars, Buttercup the horse-car becoming a slide, and the Red Fang Chevy wagon arriving the most Lemons way possible: being pushed across the grass because it stopped running.That wagon has an even better ending. After winning an Index of Effluency, becoming a Red Fang tribute car and appearing at Concours, it was sold to a group of excited 22-year-old dairy farmers from Visalia preparing to become brand-new Lemons racers.That right there is why we love this community.But this is Everyone Racers, so before we reach Monterey, things get appropriately weird.We recap the Hell on Wheels Lemons Rally, including a Mitsubishi camper, a 1959 Edsel, an International Harvester, a V8-swapped RX-7, a purple Smart car and two rescue puppies. Chris and Chrissy take an old Range Rover through Colorado, where Chrissy dislocates a pinky mountain biking, Chris performs a field-expedient repair, and they continue hiking because apparently pain is merely advisory.Tim talks Pebble Beach, PGA HOPE, moving to Maine, his '59 El Camino and the rapidly expanding definition of “garage project.” Mental works on the land-speed VW and Porsche 912. Neal shares the incredible story of his mother's 1966 Mustang, bought new with six-tenths of a mile and later V8-swapped by her personally.We also hit automotive news, cheap race cars, Honda selling pieces of racing history, a spectacularly expensive Ferrari, terrible car names and the latest opportunity to make financially irresponsible racing decisions.Above all, this episode is about what Neal calls the world around Lemons: weird cars, rallies, racing, ridiculous ideas and people genuinely excited about the things they love.If you're into 24 Hours of Lemons, amateur endurance racing, low-budget motorsports, DIY race cars, classic cars, Monterey Car Week, weird automotive history or garage-built insanity, you've found your people.Because expensive cars are nice.But pure dumb joy is better.Check out Neal's Radio Shows, Morning Cup & Night Train on Demand here;https://www.kcbx.org/programs-ondemandUber Rich Guy pays too much for a stupid Ferrari (Matt Hardigee @ the Autopian)https://www.theautopian.com/someone-just-spent-40000000-on-the-first-ferrari-luce-ev-because-the-world-makes-no-sense/ Honda Will Sell And Restore Its Iconic Race Cars Through New Heritage Racing Program (Andy Kalmowitz @ Jalopnik)https://www.jalopnik.com/2235518/honda-restore-iconic-race-cars/Naming a New Vehicle Is Way Harder Than You Think (Dan Roth @ The Drive) https://www.thedrive.com/news/naming-a-new-vehicle-is-way-harder-than-you-think-and-experts-still-arent-sure-ford-got-it-rightPGA Reach Foundationhttps://www.pgareach.org/Any VW Rabbit in Stillwater MN for $3k on Racing Junk https://www.racingjunk.com/volkswagen/184812654

More investors are turning to TikTok, YouTube, and other social-media platforms for financial advice. But how do you separate useful financial education from bad advice, speculation, and outright scams? Lance Roberts and Jonathan Penn discuss how to evaluate financial advice online, the warning signs investors should watch for, and why popularity, followers, and flashy lifestyles aren't substitutes for expertise. Social media can help people become better investors—but only if they know whom to trust. 0:00 INTRO 1:02 - Don't Read Too Much Into Indexes 3:14 - Cap-X Spending: Space-X Data Center Grimes County Tax Abatement 5:14 - Market Factors & Dynamics (Momentum Index, Semi-conductor Index, IGV, Value Index, MGK Mega-cap stocks) 11:32 - The Myths of Long Term Investing - Pt-1 13:37 - The Great Wealth Transfer Fail 18:13 - Financial Advice on Social Media 19:47 - Sports Betting as Part of Financial Plan? 21:00 - How We Differ from the Other Guys on Social Media 24:26 - Four Buckets of Social Media Influencers 28:13 - What are They Selling?

Vergeet de beursgang van SpaceX: die van Anthropic wordt nog veel groter. Het bedrijf groeide van amper een miljard dollar omzet eind 2024 naar makkelijk 50 miljard dollar in de eerste helft van dit jaar. En in 2028? Dan staat er 200 miljard dollar op de borden, zegt het bedrijf. Is dit net zulke science fiction als SpaceX in zijn prospectus zette? En hoe gevoelig is dit bedrijf eigenlijk voor concurrentie? Dat bespreken we in deze aflevering. Verder houden we bij BNR Beurs wel van een mooie comeback. BlackBerry is niet langer het telefoonbedrijf dat op sterven na dood was na de introductie van de iPhone. Het is een infrastructuurspeler geworden, met technologie die gebruikt wordt door robots, medische spelers en defensiebedrijven. En daarom werd het bedrijf het afgelopen jaar 2.5 keer zoveel waard. Boem! We bespreken hoe ze dat voor elkaar kregen. Natuurlijk moeten we ook nog even gluren bij de buren, nu het nog kan. Jane Street wil zijn eigen schuldpapier minder publiek maken, maar tot die tijd kunnen we meekijken hoe het bedrijf met de grootste handelswinsten op Wall Street eigenlijk zijn geld verdient. En wat blijkt? Het verloor tientallen miljarden aan Leopold Aschenbrenner, de jonge knaap en wonderbelegger wiens fonds vorige maand opbrandde in de atmosfeer. Tot slot die halfjaarcijfers van Ebusco. Als het niet lukt om een nieuwe kredietfaciliteit af te sluiten, en een grote aandeelhouder niet bijstort, denkt het bedrijf dat er materiële uitdagingen ontstaan om zijn verplichtingen na te komen.

De Fed-notulen komen eraan - wat Errol Keyner betreft hét moment om het nieuwe sausje dat Kevin Warsh over het voorzitterschap giet te bespreken. Warsh wil, in tegenstelling tot zijn voorganger Powell, spaarzaam zijn met zijn guidance, zodat beleggers zich daar minder door laten leiden. Een goed plan, vindt Keyner. Het heeft weinig toegevoegde waarde om voorspellingen over rente en inflatie te doen, die met veel onzekerheid zijn omgeven. Wel moet Warsh nu écht een keer boter bij de vis gaan doen, om die inflatie onder de 2% te duwen. Iets wat al vijf jaar niemand is gelukt...

Reddit krijgt promotie! Het mag de S&P 500 in. En dat ondanks een dramatisch beursjaar tot nu toe. Ruim 30 procent daalde het aandeel. Aan hun eigen cijfers kan het niet liggen, de omzet groeide al zes kwartalen op rij met meer dan 60 procent. Gaat dit dan het kantelpunt zijn? En wat heeft het aandeel Reddit anders nodig? Dat hoor je in deze aflevering. We hebben het ook over een verandering bij een van 's werelds grootste beleggers. Bill Ackman staat erom bekend dat hij maar in een handjevol bedrijven investeert, en nu gooit hij zijn halve portefeuille om. Opvallende timing, want het gebeurt in dezelfde week als Berkshire Hathaway die weer aan het inslaan is. Overigens is er ook nog een opvallende investering. Er mag dan wel veel negatief nieuws zijn over Netflix, maar Ackman gelooft in het aandeel. Verder hoor je over een opvallende maatregel in Zuid-Korea. Daar proberen ze de volatiliteit in de Kospi te bezweren door beleggers eerst een week op cursus te sturen. En we hebben het over een record bij Tesla in Zweden. Maar niet een waar Musk blij van wordt. Te gast: Errol Keyner van de Vereniging van Effectenbezitters BNR Beurs is een journalistiek onafhankelijke productie, mede mogelijk gemaakt door Saxo.

We measure almost everything in #GovConBut are we measuring the thing that matters most?In other words, are we asking how effectively is the GovCon Ecosystem enabling agencies to accomplish their missions through contracts?After all, that's the point of government contracting: to enable the agency mission through contracts.This is THE question we in #GovCon should be asking regularly.To help answer that question: we created the GovCon Mission Effectiveness Index, or GMEI.Every quarter, we ask people across government and industry - especially our podcast listeners like you - how effectively they think the GovCon Ecosystem is enabling agencies to meet their missions through contracts.We combine those anonymous responses into a single benchmark that tells us where we are today, where we think we're going, and how those perceptions are changing over time.Go to GovConMEI.com and add your perspective. It only takes 2 minutes (I timed it!). Once you take it, share it with one other person in GovCon.At the end of the month, I'll come back here and share the results.Every quarter tells a story. Help us measure this one.

IN THIS EPISODE   You've probably heard that omega-3s are good for you. But few people realize just how crucial they are for brain health, inflammation, and so much more… and just how many of us aren't getting enough.   In this episode of the ReThink Health Podcast, I sit down with Dr. Philip Calder, Professor of Nutritional Immunology at the University of Southampton and one of the world's leading researchers on omega-3 fatty acids and inflammation.   According to Dr. Calder, an estimated 75% of people worldwide aren't getting enough EPA and DHA, the omega-3s most strongly linked to human health. And over time, low omega-3 status may contribute to greater risk of cardiovascular disease, metabolic disease, cognitive decline, and other conditions associated with aging. Come explore why DHA is especially important for the brain, how omega-3s may support muscle as we age, the nuanced truth about omega-6 seed oils, and simple ways to improve your omega-3 status through food and supplements.   You'll learn: How omega-3s change your cell membranes and influence how your cells function How EPA, DHA, and DPA literally help turn off inflammation Why DHA plays a unique role in the brain, vision, and cognitive function The difference between EPA and DHA (and why you need both) How omega-3s may support muscle protein synthesis and healthy aging The surprising connection between omega-3s, fertility, pregnancy, and infant development Why the balance between omega-6 and omega-3 fatty acids matters The best food sources of EPA and DHA, and how much Dr. Calder recommends getting each day How the Omega-3 Index can help reveal your long-term omega-3 status and future health risks   If you're not regularly eating fatty fish, there's a good chance you're missing out on these critical fats. This episode explains exactly why omega-3s matter and the practical steps you can take to get more of them.   VALUABLE RESOURCES Paleovalley Omega-3 Complex >>> Support brain, heart, cellular, and whole-body health with 1,050 mg of clean, bioavailable omega-3s per serving. Save up to 20% on Paleovalley Omega-3 Complex.   BIO Dr. Philip Calder is a Professor of Nutritional Immunology at the University of Southampton whose research explores how nutrition influences immune function, inflammation, and human health.   With a background in metabolic biochemistry, Dr. Calder began studying how immune cells use fatty acids nearly four decades ago. His discovery that different fatty acids could actually change the way immune cells function helped lead him into the emerging field of nutritional immunology. Today, his research focuses extensively on the effects of dietary fats (particularly omega-3 fatty acids) on immunity, inflammation, and health.   THANKS FOR LISTENING!

Adyen stelt wat teleur in de eerste helft van het jaar, maar maakt dat de komende maanden meer dan goed. De betaalverwerker is extreem enthousiast over wat komen gaat. Het verhoogt de omzetverwachting. Waar aandeelhouders het aandeel eerder nog dumpten, slaan ze het nu massaal in. Deze aflevering hebben we het uitgebreid over die vooruitblik. Je hoort of Adyen het vertrouwen weer helemaal heeft teruggewonnen en waar de groeikansen liggen. Hebben we het ook over Anthropic. Dat gaat volgens de Financial Times in de herfst naar Wall Street. Met een prijskaartje van 2000 miljard! Meer dan SpaceX! Beide bedrijven stellen dus niet teleur. Dat doet Fastned ook niet, bekend van die snellaadstations. Het verlies is wat ingelopen en de omzet flink gestegen. Ook verhoogt het bedrijf de margeverwachting.

Een kwartaal om door een ringetje te halen! ABN maakte meer winst, zag het rendement op het eigen vermogen toenemen, de buffers stijgen en de kosten zakken. Het was bovendien allemaal veel beter dan waarop analisten hadden gerekend. En de aandeelhouder? Die is blij, want het dividend gaat omhoog. Deze aflevering hebben we het over het succes van ABN. Waar doet de bank het goed en waar kunnen ze het nóg beter doen? Ook gaat het over de buffers van de bank. Die staan er zo goed voor, dat ze op overnamepad kunnen. Moeten ze dat ook doen? Verder duiken we in de wereld van cloudverhuur. We hebben het over een Amerikaanse hit, CoreWeave. De omzet verdubbelde en beleggers duiken op het aandeel. Een klein probleempje: het maakt nog altijd geen winst. Winst was er ook voor het Noorse staatsfonds, de grootste belegger van de wereld. In de eerst helft van het jaar een keurige 186 miljard dollar winst! Ook laten de Noren weten hoeveel aandelen ze precies in SpaceX hebben. Hello Kitty, jawel, komt ook nog voorbij deze aflevering. Je hoort wat de link tussen dit schattige wezentje en president Trump is.

The first quarter of 2026 stunk for Graff-Pinkert’s used machinery business. But fortunately, in the last few months, we’ve made some really good deals, selling old Davenport and Acme screw machines, as well as some expensive late model CNC multi-spindles. Today, Lloyd Graff and I give our take on why the year unfolded this way and what we predict the machining industry will look like for the rest of the year. We’re optimistic because it seems like onshoring is real and tariff surprises are no longer a surprise. Listen on your favorite podcast app using pod.link.     .

Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/swarfcast Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/swarfcast/ LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/company/todays-machining-world Twitter: https://twitter.com/tmwswarfblog ************* Link to Graff-Pinkert's Acquisitions and Sales promotion! It's Hard to Sell Expensive Machines Noah: We purchased an INDEX MS22-8 CNC Multi-Spindle, manufactured 2019, with a partner at an auction. Brand new, that machine goes for over three million. We were asking less than half of new. And the thing is, even though something is worth that, it's hard to find someone to actually buy it. Lloyd: Who’s to say it’s worth that? It’s worth it if somebody pays it. Noah: We came very close with one company. We were on the one yard line, a very big corporation, but then it went up the rung, at the very end they said, “Well, the machine we already have has four Y-axis, and this only has two Y-axis.” I think it was an excuse to shoot it down. Lloyd: It may very well have been a political battle within the big company. That’s why it’s difficult to sell expensive machines to big companies. It's also hard to sell to small companies, because small companies don’t have access to that kind of money. Noah: If you’re going to buy a machine that costs over a million dollars, you have to have a job for it. It’s not something you spec on. People might think, all right, maybe I can pay three hundred grand for a used machine. But to pay a million dollars for a used machine, it just doesn’t compute. Even if it’s half price. Even if it’s a third of the price. Noah: So we got creative, and a little serendipity showed up. I was texting with an old customer to offer a different Index we have for sale. Then he says to me, “Hey, I have an idea for a trade for your 2019 machine.” We ended up trading our INDEX for his Tornos MultiSwiss 8×26, a 2017 with 8,500 cutting hours, plus cash. He really wanted an Index. His MultiSwiss operator is retiring, and his people wanted another Index. Lloyd: And for all we know, we might end up with a trade on that too. Onshoring Is Real Noah: Like them or don’t like them, tariffs are very influential and they’re happening. Is on-shoring finally real? Lloyd: That’s what we’ve been told by our clients. Onshoring is real, because it’s not so much about price. It’s about fear of what prices might be, and it’s about fear of what the Chinese might do, let’s say, if there was an invasion of Taiwan. Noah: We like to use fear of tariffs as an excuse for why people didn’t buy a lot of equipment from us at the beginning of the year. But it seems like now we’ve broken through to some extent. Lloyd: I think so. To some degree, people are being forced to buy, because they have an avalanche of orders. But I also think there’s a genuine fear by big companies that they cannot have crucial production in China. What I’m hearing from clients is their customers are saying, “We’re not worried about price. We’ll accept price raises. What we want is quality, and we want certainty of delivery.” With China, they may be able to get price, but they cannot get certainty of delivery. And, they cannot get certainty of quality. So while China can still undercut United States manufacturers on price, price is not the only thing that dictates decisions. 50 Bucks an Hour and Gila Monster Saliva Noah: What’s a contrarian prediction you have? Lloyd: Fewer and fewer men are deciding to go to college, because they don’t want to accumulate the debt, and they don’t see the opportunities in the jobs they used to get. (It used to be) “I want to be a programmer, I want to be an accountant, I want to be a lawyer.” Those aren’t necessarily great jobs to go into today, particularly if AI is going to take over so much of the white collar world. But what you do have a need for is people who can run factories and people who can work in factories. So my contrarian view is that more and more people are going to go to vocational school and technical school, and you will see a turnaround in the amount of people available for machining. But you will also see the pay for machining work go up dramatically. You’re going to see people routinely making fifty dollars an hour for machining jobs. Noah: If there’s a bigger supply of people who want to do it, wouldn’t that make wages go down? Lloyd: The demand for quality people will continue to be high, and contract manufacturing people will wake up and decide, if I want to hire somebody, I’m going to have to pay them. Lloyd: What do you think is a surprise that’s coming? Noah: I’m not that original with this one. Stephanie and I have made an investment, and we’re going to invest a little bit more, in GLP-1 stocks. Scott Galloway says that in the next ten years GLP-1 technology is going to be a bigger development in the world than AI. Is that true? I don’t know. But every day these GLP-1s seem to do something new that we didn’t think they could do. Lloyd: Do you know how they developed the first GLP-1 drug? Noah: I do not. Lloyd: It came from testing the venom of a Gila monster. It was originally developed for diabetes. Noah: Serendipity. What We're Using AI For Lloyd: What did you use AI for today? Noah: I took a database of machines and had Claude build a call list for us. We’re purchasing a Star SR32, so now I have a list of customers all organized and ready to work. What deep dark secrets did you use it for? Lloyd: I used it this morning to check how long a CT scan would take, because my wife was going to have a CT scan ahead of hip replacement surgery. Noah: And what did it say? Lloyd: Five to ten minutes. Noah: And how long did it take? Lloyd: Five to ten minutes. She was greatly relieved before she went, knowing that was likely all it would take. Noah: Anything else you’d like to say to the people of the world? I think I’m ready to drop the mic. Lloyd: Live each day. Savor every moment. Noah: Thank you. Let’s do this again soon. The post Why Onshoring Is Really Happening, with Lloyd and Noah Graff-EP 271 appeared first on Today's Machining World.

Is indexed universal life (IUL) or variable universal life (VUL) really better than whole life insurance for the Infinite Banking Concept? In this episode, Paul Fugere and David Befort break down a real policy illustration — including a letter recommending a premium increase from $55 to $829 — and explain why "not guaranteed" appears on nearly every page.This breakdown examines the specific mechanics of indexed universal life insurance and variable universal life policies. If you are currently considering these options for your financial portfolio, it is essential to understand the structural concerns raised by industry critics. We analyze why these products often fail to meet the projections presented during initial sales pitches.By comparing the reality of IUL vs VUL, we highlight the potential risks that policyholders frequently overlook. This discussion is designed for anyone evaluating complex life insurance products and seeking clarity on whether they truly serve your long-term financial goals.

You didn't lose a ball—and that's a great feeling. But what about the sideways chip-outs? In this episode, Lou asks Mark and Greg how a 10-index scores when he has no penalty shots, but does have recovery shots. What happens to scores in rounds when you're punching out from under a tree a few times? And since we're all going to end up there: how do we get better at making those shots useful?Each of these will be a mini-episode (10-15 minutes long) about an interesting golf stat. We will discuss what you can learn, and most importantly, how you can apply this on the golf course to lower your scores and lower your handicap.

Episode 3647: Chris Reining shares the investing principles that helped him build a seven-figure portfolio, arguing that long-term success comes from consistent habits rather than market predictions. By focusing on automation, low-cost investing, patience, and emotional discipline, he shows how simple decisions made consistently can create more wealth and, ultimately, more freedom. Read along with the original article(s) here: https://chrisreining.com/5-investing-rules/ Quotes to ponder: “When you build a system by automating your personal finances it means you're not wasting your time and energy moving money around and making decisions because all the decisions have already been made for you.” “What it's really about is building a strong mental attitude because when you have a strong mental attitude you're less likely to make emotional decisions.” “Why do investors do so poorly? Because they're tinkering and tweaking and adjusting.” Episode references: S&P 500 Index: https://www.spglobal.com/spdji/en/indices/equity/sp-500/ 401(k) Plans (IRS): https://www.irs.gov/retirement-plans/401k-plans Meditation and Mindfulness (American Psychological Association): https://www.apa.org/topics/mindfulness/meditation Learn more about your ad choices.
