This week it's NVIDIA Nemotron Ultra through Perplexity - my sub is running out soon. It made some pretty amazing mistakes and totally made up the references list at the end. I dunno, stick to making chips fellas cause this is a bit shit. Still, it's better than nothing. The clankers are still doing okay at the shownotes thing. Enjoy! --------SummaryMr. Insider and Hong Kong Jack open with the passing of Melbourne matriarch Kath Pettingill (91) and the grim, darkly comic history of the Pettingill–Allen clan — Dennis “Dr Death” Allen, the Stevenson Street fortress, and the Wall Street executions. They pivot to Victoria's suppression-order addiction (half the national total) and the Ralph Carr rape conviction that took 48 hours to un-suppress, then dissect IBAC's Operation Richmond into the UFU/CFA/FRV stitch-up — six years, no corruption findings, just “serious and concerning conduct.”Cross the border to NSW: ICAC's Operation Rosne is live, Jean‑Claude Perrottet is squirming in the box as Nassif's $2M bribe tapes play, and Jeremy Greenwood is ghosting from London. A detour through minority-government history (Gillard–Greens–Oakeshott–Windsor) segues into a housing-market stoush: banks forecasting −10%, the Budget saying +2%, and Tanya Plibersek claiming “best time ever for first‑home buyers.”The Cambridge sociologist Jason Arday unravels — non-verbal till 11, 600 miles in six days, 30 marathons in 35 days, a brain tumour, 7‑Up kid, £5.5M raised, AI‑written resignation letter — and the ABC's Four Corners hiring ex‑Mongol Mahmoud Fazal is flagged for next week. Fauci's diaries, RFK Jr.'s peptide purge, and COVID revisionism draw a furious rant. Ukraine's drone supremacy, PLA drone investment, and why NATO spending metrics miss the point.Sport: Trump's “club champ” grift, Geelong's secret concussion waiver (chaired by AFL Commission boss Craig Drummond), the wildcard-round tanking farce driven by betting partners, Tasmania signing Nigel Lappin, and Carlton's miraculous turnaround under Josh Fraser — Harry DeMattia, Jagga Smith, Wade Derksen, and a game plan now built on turnover footy. Matthew Stokes on club culture and troubled players. The Hundred's kid‑focused gimmickry, AFLW Ireland's skill explosion at North Sydney Oval, and a teaser on NRL/AFL media capture for next week.Timeline Time Segment0:25 Intro & Housekeeping – 7 Aug 2026, Hong Kong weather (“it's called summer”), Melbourne heat.1:18 Kath Pettingill & the Pettingill–Allen Dynasty – “Granny Evil” dies at 91; Dennis Allen (Mr Death), Peter Allen, Victor Pierce, Wall Street murders, Stevenson Street Richmond/Cremorne, Brian Murphy's $1,400/week payoff, chainsaws & 44‑gallon drums.7:03 Victoria's Suppression‑Order Addiction – >50% of national total; Ralph Carr (Dusty Martin's ex‑manager) convicted of raping employee; 48‑hour delay lifting suppression; “if you've got money you get away with it.”12:29 IBAC Operation Richmond (UFU/CFA/FRV) – Six‑year inquiry; “serious & concerning conduct” but no corrupt conduct; political fix for metropolitan/country fire boundary; “vanilla ICAC” vs NSW theatre; Dan Andrews' golf clubs.20:39 NSW ICAC Operation Rosne – Young Liberal operatives (Assaf, Ellis, Greenwood, Perrottet brothers); Jean Nassif ($2M bribe allegation, now in Lebanon), Michael O'Hara, Catholic Schools NSW (Dallas McInerney); targeting David Elliott & Building Commissioner David Chandler; Jean‑Claude Perrottet in the box, audio ambush.32:41 Minority Government & Coalitions of Convenience – Gillard–Greens–Oakeshott–Windsor “wedding ceremony”; Paul Kelly's verdict; “you don't need formal agreements”; Jim Cairns 1970s parallel; all the 2010 plotters now in gaming.40:52 Housing Market: Crash or Soft Landing? – Banks: −10% / $230B wiped; Budget: +2%; Tanya Plibersek's “best time ever” claim; negative equity, bank forbearance, 1990s commercial‑property playbook.46:30 Cambridge Professor Jason Arday: Fantasist or Fraud? – Youngest Black professor; didn't speak till 11, illiterate till 18, 600 miles/6 days, 30 marathons/35 days (last 9 with hairline fracture), 7‑Up claim, £5.5M raised (walked back), brain tumour during PhD; Cambridge defends, then folds; AI‑written resignation letter; Guardian pile‑on; “sociology standards are fuzzy.”51:23 ABC Four Corners & Mahmoud Fazal – Ex‑Mongols sergeant‑at‑arms hired; journalistic ethics vs “great life story”; teed up for next episode.56:34 Fauci, RFK Jr & COVID Revisionism – Fauci takes the Fifth; HHS servers now under Kennedy; “ICUs were empty” lie; double‑blind placebo ethics (Salk polio regret); FDA pulls six peptides off ban list with zero human data; “grifters at 4,000% markup”; healthcare workers threatened.1:04:05 Ukraine–Russia: Drone Wars & Asymmetric Shift – Ukrainians lead in AI‑guided, radar‑invisible drones; defender's advantage today ≠ tomorrow; PLA investing heavily; US big‑bureaucracy lag; Taiwan lesson — boots still needed.1:08:56 Golf: Trump's “Club Championship” – 80‑yo, 180‑yard drive, four‑handicap in prime; member confirms nudging, caddy collusion, card‑swapping; “four or five handicap? I'd never play again.”1:10:48 AFL: Geelong's Secret Concussion Deal – Undisclosed player, multiple concussions, waiver signed, cleared by board (chair Craig Drummond → AFL Commission chair); rival clubs furious; enforceability doubtful; “Geelong get umpired different.”1:14:41 Wildcard Round Tanking & Betting Partners – Greg Swan memo: “pick on merit or scrutiny”; Fremantle 2023 precedent; clubs 6–10 resting stars to keep week off; bookies complain → “don't bet that week.”1:17:13 Tasmania Devils: Nigel Lappin as Head of Development – “Best development coach in the comp”; development = sustained success (cf.

Most ODs who enter aesthetics start in a similar place. They purchase IPL or radio frequency technology for dry eye. They discover the equipment can do more. They add a few aesthetic treatments to the schedule, and then the opportunity stalls. The devices are there. Patients show some interest. But aesthetics never becomes a real business. This week on Power Hour, host Eugene Shatsman sits down with Dr. Amanda Barker, Co-Founder and Owner of Advanced Family Eye Care, to examine what it actually takes to move beyond dabbling and build a seven-figure aesthetics practice. Amanda's aesthetics business is now on track to generate between $1 million and $1.2 million annually. But the most valuable part of the conversation is not the final number. It is everything she had to build around it. A separate business structure, licensed providers, multiple treatment rooms, a consultative sales process, production goals for each room and provider, and patient retention systems.

In Part 2 of this mini series on Collagen Loss, Dr. Mary Alice Mina moves from biology to action: the exact morning and evening skincare routine that makes sense for post-menopausal skin, which ingredients actually have evidence behind them, and which in-office treatments are worth the money. She walks through why a routine built for oily 20-something skin works against you later, then breaks down a simple AM routine (gentle cleanse, antioxidant/vitamin C serum, moisturizer, sunscreen) and PM routine (cleanse, retinol/retinoid as the cornerstone anti-aging ingredient, moisturizer), plus how to exfoliate without damaging the skin barrier. She then ranks in-office options — red light therapy, IPL, microneedling, neurotoxins, resurfacing lasers, chemical peels, and skin-tightening devices — explaining who each is right for and when surgery becomes the better conversation. The message throughout: it doesn't need to be complicated or expensive, just consistent and matched to where your skin actually is.

What does it actually mean when a med spa says it offers “laser treatments”? The answer is far more complicated than most patients realize. In this episode of Plastic Surgery Uncensored, Dr. Rady Rahban is joined once again by Charlene, RN, for part three of their series examining the increasingly popular and often misunderstood world of nonsurgical aesthetic treatments. Together, Dr. Rahban and Charlene break down technologies including BBL, IPL, erbium resurfacing, and HALO, while exploring one of the most important issues in laser medicine: treating darker skin tones safely. They also discuss the relationship between downtime and results, why more aggressive treatments are not always appropriate for every patient, and how improper settings or inadequate pre- and post-treatment skincare can lead to burns, worsening pigmentation, and disappointing outcomes.This episode is not about promoting one laser or claiming that a single device can do it all. In fact, that is precisely the point. The right technology must be matched to the right problem, the right skin type, and the right patient.✨ If you enjoyed this episode of Plastic Surgery Uncensored:✔️ Subscribe on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, or wherever you listen.✔️ Rate & Review—your feedback helps more people find us.✔️ Follow Dr. Rady Rahban across all platforms for daily insights, behind-the-scenes, and patient education:Instagram: @drradyrahbanTikTok: @radyrahbanMDYouTube: @Rady RahbanFacebook: @Rady Rahban✔️ Share this episode with someone considering plastic surgery—the right knowledge can save a life.

In this episode, I break down everything you need to know about hyperpigmentation, including the differences between sunspots, age spots, and melasma, why they develop, and the most effective ways to treat them. We discuss the best brightening ingredients, including hydroquinone, vitamin C, kojic acid, niacinamide, tranexamic acid, and retinoids, plus how to build a skincare routine that helps prevent unwanted pigmentation from returning. We also cover the pros and cons of IPL, chemical peels, and lasers, how to choose the right sunscreen, and the biggest mistakes people make when trying to fade dark spots. If you're looking for clearer, brighter, and more even-toned skin, this episode is for you.

T20 World Cup के बाद भारत को अब भी पहली जीत की तलाश है. आयरलैंड में मिट्टी पलीद होने के बाद इंग्लैंड सीरीज में भी टीम इंडिया को निराशा ही हाथ लगी है. इस बीच वैभव सूर्यवंशी का इंटरनेशनल डेब्यू हो गया. लेकिन संजू सैमसन को बाहर का रास्ता दिखा दिया गया. इतना ही नहीं टी20 वर्ल्ड कप में लगातार तीन मैच जिताकर प्लेयर ऑफ़ द टूर्नामेंट बने संजू ज़िम्बॉब्वे टूर से भी ड्रॉप हो गए हैं. आख़िर संजू सैमसन हर बार सॉफ़्ट टारगेट क्यों हो जाते हैं, टीम मैनेजमेंट उनके साथ घोर अन्याय क्यों कर रहा और उनका प्लेइंग 11 में होना क्यों फ़ायदेमंद है? क्या वैभव सूर्यवंशी को पर्याप्त मौके मिलेंगे या भविष्य में उनका हश्र भी संजू की तरह होगा? RCB को लगातार दो बार चैंपियन बनाने वाले कप्तान रजत पाटीदार की जगह ज़िम्बॉब्वे सीरीज में भी क्यों नहीं बनी? RCB की टीम से रसिख सलाम डार और क्रुणाल पंड्या जैसे प्लेयर क्यों नहीं चुने जा रहे? इसके अलावा नए नवेले कप्तान श्रेयस अय्यर की कप्तानी पर सवाल क्यों उठ रहे हैं, क्या उनका भी टिकट जल्द कट सकता है? रवि विश्नोई के ख़राब परफॉरमेंस के बाद सवाल ये भी है कि युजवेंद्र चहल को सेलेक्टर क्यों भूले बैठे हैं? IPL 2026 में विकेटलेस रहे मयंक यादव को किस बिनाह पर टीम में जगह मिली? साथ ही ऑस्ट्रेलिया के विमेंस T20 वर्ल्ड कप जीतने और बाबर आज़म के पाकिस्तानी टेस्ट टीम के कप्तान बनने पर दिलचस्प चर्चा, सुनिए 'बल्लाबोल' के इस एपिसोड में कुमार केशव और निखिल नाज़ के साथ.होस्ट & प्रड्यूस: कुमार केशवसाउंड मिक्सिंग: रोहन भारती

India's official national sport is hockey, yet the nation's most popular is cricket. Why did one game capture the imagination of millions while the other, despite its golden Olympic legacy, fade into the background?In this episode, we rewind to hockey's glory days — six consecutive Olympic golds, legends like Dhyan Chand, and packed stadiums — and contrast them with cricket's meteoric rise after the 1983 World Cup victory. We'll explore how television, accessibility, star power, and the spectacle of the IPL transformed cricket into a cultural phenomenon, while hockey struggled to keep pace.From colonial roots to modern entertainment, from national pride to emotional resonance, this is the story of how cricket became India's “religion without rituals,” and why hockey, though respected, never achieved the same grip on the nation's soul.Instagram: @samarthchittaTwitter: @samarthchittaEmail: samarth.chitta@gmail.com

Ed Cowan is an Australian test cricketer, investor, podcaster and author.He's one of those people whose name I jotted down 6 years ago when I started the show earmarked as a ‘dream guest'.He played in a golden era of Australian cricket and did so at a time when I was obsessed with the sport myself (I had delusions about being a test cricketer) and therefore like the music of your youth those cricketers you grew up with leave a certain impression. I've since been a long time listener of his 'Scaling Up' podcast series and tune in weekly for the ABC Cricket Podcast where he is a co-host.Ed has an occasionally controversial, but always influential voice on the Australian cricketing landscape.It's an absolute pleasure to have recorded this with him.He had 32 test innings for Australia across 18 matches, scored one test hundred and over 1000 runs in total.You'll find a link to both his book and his podcast here. Leave a review on Apple or Spotify (nothing does more to help grow the show)It's an enormous pleasure to have spoken with Ed, we discussed...How Ed always kept a foot in multiple worlds, even though it came at a cost. The transition out of professional sport and why so many athletes struggle with it.His mentor Peter RoebuckMental health in cricket and how the culture has shifted.His Test career: the debut hundred, the weight of expectation, homework-gate, and his illness that coincided with the Ashes and the end of his international career.Ed's views on IPL money, BBL privitisation and governance.The business of cricket: how he'd restructure Cricket Australia, player pay, and bringing patient, evergreen capital into the Big Bash.And, as always, the role serendipity has played in his life, to which, as an opening batsman, he had the perfect answer.Timestamps...00:00 — Realising a cricket career was possible02:17 — Under-19s in Sri Lanka, surrounded by future Test players07:38 — The transition myth: why it's a decade, not twelve months14:08 — Do athletes have too much free time?17:03 — Travel, brooding, and the Matthew Talbot shelter that shifted his perspective27:02 — The Cricinfo depression piece33:31 — NSW's logjam of talent and the fresh start in Tasmania36:30 — Called up to Australia; the left-handed-opener mystery39:36 — Peter Roebuck: discipline, mangoes, and the debut century dedicated to him44:43 — The 18 innings: expectation, emotional regulation, homework-gate50:42 — The Ashes, falling ill, and his final Test54:00 — Resentment, selection, and "perception is reality"55:12 — Death of a Gentleman, the IPL, and cricket's governance crisis1:00:23 — Ambitions in cricket; the ABC podcast as a public service1:08:08 — Privatising the Big Bash and bringing in patient capital1:13:55 — Serendipity, Gideon Haig, and "I was an opening batsman"Some choice snippets from the conversation.On transition out of sport"A lot of sportspeople think transition is your last twelve months of playing and your first twelve months of the real world. That's only a tiny speck of what it actually looks like. You come out of sport and you're at the bottom of the next mountain — you've got the tools to climb it, but that's another journey in and of itself."On identity"One of the thresholds is: do you still think of yourself as a cricketer? It's not part of my identity anymore at all. Some people say, 'You're the guy who used to play cricket.' Yeah, that was me. But that takes a while."On the perspective that pulled him out of a funk (volunteering at the Matthew Talbot shelter)"Here I was brooding over nicking one to second slip the day before. And here are guys who hadn't made any bad choices — they were just out of luck."On the chip on his shoulder"You think I'm not training hard enough? I'll beat you in the beep test. You think I'm not preparing properly? I'll get a hundred on the weekend."On why cricket breeds brooders"The output's objective. There's nothing subjective about getting a twenty-ball duck. And the time lag from error to atonement is long — it can be two days, and you're doing nothing.""The key to good mental health in cricket is celebrating your teammates' success. That's rarer than you'd think."On the fresh start in Tasmania"The joy of a fresh start is you can be whoever you want to be the moment you walk in the door. There's no judgment about what school you went to. You're judged from day one only."On luck (the serendipity close)"Two more centimetres of Morne Morkel's size-fourteen boot behind the line, and I'm out for forty-eight. No one remembers Ed Cowan, Test century.""The harder you work, the luckier you get. Luck can come and find you — but it's up to each individual to make that lucky moment count."On the business of cricket"Our best players probably don't get paid enough, and our worst players get paid too much.""An IPL owner's incentive is not to grow the Big Bash. It's to pillage the Big Bash so the IPL gets stronger."Podcast Starter PacksInvestigative JournalistsOffshore Finance/Kleptocracy & Money LaunderingGeopolitics/Economics/Economic DevelopmentExplorers & AdventurersLeave a review on Apple or Spotify (nothing does more to help grow the show)

In today's episode of Over 50 & Flourishing, I'm joined by Dr. Pam Theriot, an optometrist, author, and dry eye specialist with more than 20 years of experience in eye care. Dr. Pam leads the Dry Eye Relief Center at Lusk Eye Specialists in Louisiana and, after experiencing her own struggles with dry eye early in her career, made it her mission to help others find lasting relief and restore comfort, confidence, and clarity. Together, we explore why dry eye has become increasingly common and how menopause, hormone replacement therapy, inflammation, and screen time may all be contributing factors. Dr. Pam explains what's actually happening inside the eye when dry eye develops, how to choose the right eye drops, and the treatment options available when over-the-counter solutions aren't enough.We also dive into the beauty habits that may be harming our eyes, her thoughts on castor oil, radiofrequency treatments, IPL for rosacea, and the daily habits that can help protect our vision and support healthy aging for years to come.For more on Dr. Pam, follow her on:Website: www.pamtheriot.com Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/pam.theriot/ YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@alleviatedryeyewithdr.T TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@pamtheriot6 LinkedIn: linkedin.com/in/pamtheriot Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/login/?next=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.facebook.com%2FDryEyeReliefDoctors Get the Beauty Guide for Sensitive Eyes: https://www.pamtheriot.com/remover Thanks to my Sponsors:Caraway: Visit Carawayhome.com/OVER to take an additional 10% off using code OVER on your next purchaseBranch Basics: Whether you're going all-in on safe cleaning swaps or just starting small, find Branch Basics at Target and Target.com todayVeracity Selfcare: For up to 65% off your order, head to VeracityHealth.co and use code FLOURISHINGBiOptimizers: Go to bioptimizers.com/flourishing and use code FLOURISHING for 15% off your entire order + a free travel size bottle of Masszymes added to your order automatically when you use my exclusive code FLOURISHING AttnGrace: Visit www.attngrace.com/discount/FLOURISHING and use code FLOURISHING for 20% off.Life Pro: Visit lifeprofitness.com and use code OVER50 for $20 off the Waver Vibration Plate plus Free ShippingKeep in Touch:Website: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://dominiquesachse.tv/⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Book: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://dominiquesachse.tv/book/Insta: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://www.instagram.com/dominiquesachse/Facebook: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://www.facebook.com/DominiqueSachse/TikTok: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://www.tiktok.com/@dominiquesachse?lang=enYouTube: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://www.youtube.com/@dominiquesachsetvHave a question for Dominique?

If you've ever sat in a consultation room wondering what the difference is between all those laser machines — this episode is for you. Dr. Judith Borger, board-certified physician and medical director of Concierge Medical Arts, breaks down energy-based devices by skin concern, so you can walk in informed and walk out glowing.  What We Cover Pigmentation & Uneven Skin Tone Sun spots, age spots, melasma, and dullness — Dr. Borger explains how IPL targets melanin, what "peppering" means and why it's actually a good sign, and how the Light & Bright treatment handles pigmentation and redness in one session. Vascular Concerns — Redness, Rosacea & Veins Not all redness is the same. Dr. Borger walks through the difference between treating diffuse rosacea versus visible facial and leg veins, and which devices reach which vessels. Skin Resurfacing — Texture, Pores, Scars & Fine Lines If your goal is smoother, clearer skin, this is your segment. Dr. Borger covers fractional laser resurfacing, thermo-mechanical treatments, and why traditional microneedling still earns its place in a comprehensive treatment plan. Skin Tightening & Lifting Loose skin, loss of firmness, jowling, crepey necks — Dr. Borger explains the difference between surface-level and deep-tissue tightening, including treatments that reach the same foundational layer targeted in surgical facelifts. Laser Hair Removal The Lutronic Clarity II's dual-wavelength system makes it safe for all skin types — and why most patients call it virtually painless.   Dr. Judith Borger Links: www.theaestheticdoctor.com www.instagram.com/doctorborger

After listening to Dr. Chris Wolfe's discussion on the dangers of becoming a specialist at the expense of comprehensive care, Aaron explores a different challenge facing optometry: the reluctance to embrace sales. Drawing on Daniel Pink's To Sell Is Human, he argues that ethical selling is simply helping patients trade time, money, effort, and trust for a better outcome. Through real-world examples, from contact lenses and IPL to restaurant servers and his own dentist, he explains why conviction, communication, and trust often matter more than clinical knowledge alone, and why becoming a better communicator may be one of the most valuable skills any healthcare professional can develop.

Menners is back from his US tour and digs straight into the chaos engulfing England's cricket team after Ben Stokes and Gus Atkinson broke a team curfew following the first Test win over New Zealand, costing them their spots for the second Test (with Joe Root stepping in as captain) and putting Stokes's leadership under serious pressure. From there it's a tour of Australian cricket news: Cooper Connolly's breakout ODI century against Bangladesh, debut performances from Joel Davies and Nikhil Chowdhury, a strong start for the Australian women's team at the T20 World Cup, and a deep dive into the messy, stalled privatisation of the Big Bash League, including Cricket Victoria's botched (and reversed) axing of the Stars and Renegades. He wraps up with two "can't let it go" moments: RCB's IPL title and Kane Williamson's retirement from international cricket. Suggested timecodes: (0:54) England in crisis: Stokes and Atkinson's curfew breach and the fallout (10:31) Australia's ODI and T20 series in Pakistan and Bangladesh, plus Cooper Connolly's breakout century (16:08) Australian women cruise past Bangladesh at the T20 World Cup (19:30) Big Bash privatisation chaos and the Stars/Renegades reversal (26:42) The case for not overlooking the Women's Big Bash League in privatisation talks (28:39) Can't Let It Go: RCB's IPL title and Kane Williamson's retirement We've launched our official Cricket Unfiltered merch store thanks to a brilliant partnership with Exactamundo, a longtime supporter of the show.

2026 was the first IPL season after India banned online real money gaming last year. The platforms were gone and the payment gateways were blocked. The government had made its position clear. The betting, however, did not stop. The Ken's Mrunmayee Kulkarni went looking for where it went and found it hiding inside something the government itself built. On platforms like 99 Exchange, gamblers deposit and withdraw money directly through UPI, gambler to gambler, with no mule network and no victim to file a complaint. But the ED's tools were designed for a system that leaves a trail. This one doesn't.In this episode, Mrunmayee joins host Snigdha Sharma to walk through how the money actually moves, and why the enforcement machinery has no good answer for it yet.Tune in.Daybreak is produced from the newsroom of The Ken, India's first subscriber-only business news platform.

Content creator and cricket fan Henry.vr joins Traitors finalist Faraaz Noor and Amber Sandhu in the Strategic Timeout studio to look back on this year's IPL tournament as they pick their magic moments as well as the players who have delighted and surprised them.

Jonty Rhodes, one of our favourite cricketers ever and arguably the best fielder the game has ever seen, is our very special guest this week. A whole generation of cricket fans, including us, grew up watching Jonty do things on a cricket field that had never been seen before - extraordinary catches, diving stops and ridiculous run outs - a proper pioneer. In a wide ranging interview we cover his career highlights, the players he now admires, the art of fielding, THAT 1999 World Cup Semi Final, investing in franchise cricket, coaching in the IPL and crucially which character in 'The Lion King' does he most resemble? Plus Mattchin is back with a ‘Jonty Rhodes' inspired quiz.
