In hour one of Dover and Cecil, the guys kick off the show by reacting to the Broncos roster after cut day. Who made the roster? Who got the boot? How many of those players are coming back to the practice squad? Do we think the Broncos made a mistake letting go of their 5th-round pick? They made a decision with their running backs; do we think they made the right one? Will Mr. Irrelevant still be on the Broncos' practice squad, or will someone pick him up? Are you surprised they kept 3 QBs? We hear from George Paton. Is he worried that the guys he let go will be signed to another team's practice squad? Why did he waive Justin Joly? What reason did he give for keeping 3 QBs? Cale Makar signed the biggest contract in NHL history on Friday. What does that do to the timeline for the Avs? Has the window officially been reset for the Avs? Is the window open as long as Cale is an Avalanche member? What have the expectations become now in Colorado? Do they need multiple championships to be considered a success?

Today, I'm breaking down why reality doesn't care how you feel about it. You can dislike a circumstance, disagree with it, or refuse to accept it, but none of that changes what is actually true. The sooner you stop emotionally negotiating with reality and start operating within it, the sooner you can take effective action. Show Notes: [04:51]#1 Facts do not change because of your feelings. [09:14]#2 Emotional resistance creates paralysis. [12:17]#3 Acceptance creates leverage. [19:56] Recap Next Steps: --- Execution is not a talent. It is a standard.

In this episode, Axel sits down with Zach Hoereth — real estate investor, operator of Midwest Storage, and one of the more entertaining (and polarizing) voices on real estate Instagram — for a genuinely unfiltered conversation about what actually works in this business.He brings a uniquely blunt, been-there perspective on direct-to-seller acquisitions, the limits of AI and technology in a relationship-driven business, and why chasing unit count and AUM is one of the most overrated status games in real estate investing.This episode is essential listening for any investor who wants a no-BS look at what it actually takes to source deals, build a lean operation, and avoid the traps that sideline so many people who get into this business.Join us as we dive into:Zach's path from a college leasing hustle to buying his first $20–30K house in Indianapolis in 2018, and how that snowballed into today's business.How Zach's operation is structured: direct-to-seller mail feeding wholesaling and flipping, which funds acquisitions of small multifamily, single-family rentals, and self-storage — all without outside equity to date.Why "just buying rentals" isn't a wealth strategy — cash flow keeps you in the game, but equity and capital events are what actually move the needle.Why AI and chatbots can't fix a bad reputation or replace the human-to-human trust that wins deals, retains tenants, and keeps LPs engaged.The "70 dudes who partnered on a fourplex" problem — why unit count and AUM get wildly overrated as status symbols, and why doing a few deals solo teaches more than riding shotgun on a syndication.The three things you actually need to start doing direct-to-seller deals: a CRM, a targeted list (tools like PropStream and Reonomy), and a mail houseHow to make aggressive offers respectfully, and why "running toward the confrontation" beats avoiding it.The three Ds of distress — death, divorce, and drama — and how to quickly identify which sellers are actually motivated versus wasting your time.Why a seller's real pain point is often bigger (and weirder) than investors assume, and why being present when they decide to sell matters more than trying to convince them.Connect with Zach Hoereth:Follow him on InstagramAre you looking to invest in real estate, but don't want to deal with the hassle of finding great deals, signing on debt, and managing tenants?

“Sometimes we confuse activity with impact. And here I think the way we measure results should be different. How many lives has the UN saved? How many people has the UN helped to live out of poverty? How many people have we prevented from conflict? How many people were we able to support?” The BBC's Anne Soy speaks to María Fernanda Espinosa, Ecuador's former foreign minister and a candidate to become the first woman secretary general of the United Nations. She is seeking the role at a time when the UN faces severe financial pressure, falling international aid budgets and questions about its influence over major conflicts. Espinosa believes the organisation remains essential, but warns that it could become irrelevant unless it changes how it works. She describes the choice facing the UN as “reform, transform or die”.

Was macht ein Kommentar mit dir, wenn er deine Arbeit einfach als „irrelevant“ abstempelt? In der neuen Gedanken-to-Go-Folge spricht Stephan Wenzel über genau so einen Kommentar und darüber, warum man nicht jede Meinung an sich heranlassen sollte. Außerdem geht es um den Begriff „Sachverständiger“ und darum, wie schnell Titel und Aussagen manchmal mehr Gewicht bekommen, als sie eigentlich verdienen. Eine Folge über Kritik, Selbstbewusstsein und den richtigen Umgang mit Meinungen anderer.
Mike, Ali and Beau continue to recap and react to the Atlanta Braves losing to the Minnesota Twins last night 4-1 in Minnesota in game two of their three game series, and explain why they think the Braves management of their starting pitching rotation will be irrelevant if their offense doesn't score runs at a more consistent clip.

Emotional abusers have many tactics. They include ridicule, name-calling, minimizing, discounting, manipulation, threats, ordering, and withholding. There is another one that isn't typically mentioned, and yet it is equally painful to experience. It is making you irrelevant. Each of us needs to be understood and validated. We also need to belong to groups and to have relationships where we matter. When people make you irrelevant, they withhold these basic things when you have an expectation that you should be included. When this is used to punish and control, it can be devastating. Recognizing this tactic can help you to decrease its power. Watch this video to learn how to respond to the emotionally abusive tactic of making you irrelevant. #emotional abuse #christianrelationshipadvice #irrelevant #invalidation Karla Downing's passion is to see individuals, marriages, and families set free from dysfunction, scriptural misunderstanding, and emotional pain personally and relationally. Her Christian relationship advice includes messages, books, and classes that provide practical solutions grounded in biblical truths, bringing balance and clarity to life and relationship issues.

Smarter Ecommerce Promotions with RevlifterKey takeaways:Blanket discounting often reduces profitability and can negatively affect customer experience.Intent-based personalisation enables retailers to engage shoppers with more relevant messages at the right moment.Personalisation isn't only about promotion; it can also support education, reassurance and product discovery.Smarter popup strategies can increase conversions while significantly reducing unnecessary discounts.Premium brands can use behavioural targeting to improve customer experience without relying on discounts.Creative gamification offers opportunities to increase engagement beyond traditional prize wheels.Measuring incrementality through robust testing is essential for understanding the true commercial impact of personalisation.Granular A/B testing and audience segmentation help retailers continuously optimise campaigns and maximise performance.In this episode, we explore how ecommerce brands can move beyond blanket discounting to deliver more relevant, profitable customer experiences. The conversation focuses on why traditional promotional strategies often frustrate shoppers, how intent-based personalisation is changing the way retailers engage customers and how brands can measure the true impact of their campaigns.Our guest is Dan Bond from Revlifter. Revlifter's technology helps retailers personalise onsite marketing campaigns based on real-time customer intent rather than relying on broad promotional tactics.A key theme throughout the episode is the downside of poorly targeted promotions. Irrelevant offers can damage trust and create frustration; for example, when loyal customers are excluded from incentives designed only for new shoppers.We cover (rant about) the common mistakes retailers make, the commercial impact of those decisions and why brands need to create more intelligent promotional strategies.We also discuss the growing importance of customer intent signals. Instead of treating every visitor the same, Dan explains how retailers can identify whether a shopper is actively ready to purchase or still in the discovery phase, allowing brands to tailor messaging and offers accordingly.Moving beyond discounts, the discussion highlights how intent scoring can also power non-promotional experiences, such as providing buying guidance, product advice and reassurance during more complex purchasing journeys. This demonstrates how personalisation can improve customer experience without sacrificing margin.Dan shares a real-world success story from Sportshoes. Discover how a refined popup strategy delivered a 7% uplift in conversions while suppressing more than 2,000 unnecessary discounts, resulting in savings of approximately £25,000. Our attention then turns to premium brands, where discounting is often less appropriate. Using examples such as Radley, we discuss how exit-intent campaigns can be used across product listing pages, product pages and the cart to deliver value through personalised messaging, product recommendations or reassurance rather than price reductions.Another topic is gamification, challenging the assumption that engagement begins and ends with the familiar "spin-to-win" mechanic. The discussion explores alternative campaign formats and creative approaches that ecommerce teams can test to increase engagement and conversion while maintaining brand value.
Damon Bruce Plus: Warriors, 49ers, Giants, A’s Bay Area Sports Talk
It's hiding in plain sight. And we're done letting it hide. His career passer rating currently sits among the highest in NFL history. He owns the highest passer rating through a quarterback's first 25 career starts since at least 1970. He has the most games with a passer rating of 130 or higher in a player's first three seasons in NFL history. Brock Purdy works the middle of the field like a Hall of Fame talent. The anticipation throws. The timing on crossing routes. The ability to go through progressions and find the window before it closes. That's not system. That's quarterback. And it's the part of his game that gets buried under the Mr. Irrelevant narrative every single time someone wants to diminish what he is.
What do a rock concert, a customer service fail, AI, propaganda, the Santa Fe obelisk, and our collective obsession with "speaking our truth" have in common?More than you think.In this solo episode, I unpack the increasingly narcissistic programming that's convinced us self-expression is the highest virtue—even when it comes at the expense of service, discernment, accountability, or each other.Along the way, I expose how media sneaks editorializing into reporting, why technological "progress" without wisdom/balance is a recipe for disaster, how language reveals the consciousness beneath our culture, and why I'm officially taking my investigative journalism to Substack.If you've been wondering why everything feels increasingly self-centered, emotionally manipulative, and intellectually bankrupt...this one's for you.As always, the uncensored second half of this episode—including bonus stories, deeper dives, and behind-the-scenes commentary—is available exclusively for my Patreon and Locals supporters.Show NotesWhy collective coherence is being replaced by individual ego.The Black Crowes incident and what it reveals about entertainers versus audiences.Customer service as a lesson in first-tier versus second-tier communication.The OneTaste concept of "safe-holding" and what it taught Dani about listening.Why modern media increasingly blurs reporting with editorializing.The Santa Fe obelisk controversy as a case study in historical language and media framing.Lessons from Pop Propaganda on recognizing manipulation techniques.Masculine versus feminine approaches to technology and innovation.Questioning technological progress, AI, and data-center expansion.Preview of Dani's forthcoming investigative Substack series.Oracle readings from The Language of Betterarchy, Pop Propaganda, and YES, I AM.
The Employers and Manufacturers Association is pushing for a bipartisan approach to business policy ahead of the election. The EMA wants greater certainty for businesses. Including plans for manufacturing, a clear energy future and stable settings. Head of Advocacy Alan McDonald told Mike Hosking that as long as everyone can agree on the major settings, it shouldn't matter which government gets in.

▶ Click Here to Master Evidence Foundations ▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬ EPISODE SUMMARY Evidence law governs controlled proof at trial. Evidence is information presented to a factfinder to prove or disprove a fact. It may include testimony, documents, photographs, recordings, physical objects, stipulations, judicially noticed facts, summaries, expert opinions, business records, public records, and demonstrative aids.The judge decides most questions of admissibility. The jury decides disputed facts and weighs admitted evidence. The parties offer evidence, opponents object, and the judge rules.Rule 104(a) gives the judge authority to decide preliminary questions about admissibility, witness qualification, and privilege. In doing so, the judge is generally not bound by evidence rules except privilege rules. Rule 104(b) governs conditional relevance. When relevance depends on whether another fact exists, the judge admits the evidence if a reasonable jury could find the connecting fact.Relevance is a low threshold. Evidence is relevant if it has any tendency to make a consequential fact more or less probable. Relevant evidence is generally admissible unless another rule excludes it. Irrelevant evidence is inadmissible.Rule 403 permits exclusion when probative value is substantially outweighed by unfair prejudice, confusion, misleading the jury, delay, waste, or cumulative proof. The rule favors admissibility because the danger must substantially outweigh probative value.Some evidence is admissible for one purpose but not another. Limiting instructions help control the jury's use of such evidence.Objections must usually be timely and specific to preserve error. If evidence is excluded, the proponent may need an offer of proof to show what the evidence would have established.Judicial notice allows courts to accept certain indisputable adjudicative facts without formal proof. In civil cases, the jury must accept judicially noticed facts as conclusive. In criminal cases, the jury may but need not accept them.Burdens of production and persuasion determine who must produce evidence and who must convince the factfinder. Presumptions may affect these burdens.The central lesson is that Evidence starts with purpose. Before applying any rule, ask: What is the evidence, who is offering it, and what fact is it offered to prove? That question is the foundation of relevance, admissibility, objections, and trial proof.

Mastering the Daily Mood Log Small Details, Life-Changing Results Episode Summary The Daily Mood Log might seem simple—even boring—but its impact can be profound. In this episode, David and Kevin break down how to use this powerful CBT tool effectively, highlighting the most common mistakes people make and how to avoid them. They explain why focusing on a single specific moment is the key to emotional transformation, how to accurately identify feelings, and how to uncover the exact thoughts driving distress. This practical deep dive shows how small shifts in technique can lead to dramatic improvements in mood, confidence, and even what David calls "enlightenment." Step 1: Upsetting Event / Moment Identify one specific moment in time (not a general problem). Include details: Where were you? Who was there? What exactly happened? Common Mistakes: ❌ Being too vague: "My life is a mess" ❌ Writing thoughts instead of events: "I'm not good enough" ❌ Describing ongoing situations instead of a moment Example: ✔️ "At 3pm today, my boss criticized my report in a meeting." Step 2: Emotions Circle or list all emotions you felt Rate each from 0–100% intensity Examples: Sad / Down – 60% Anxious / Nervous – 70% Ashamed – 50% Common Mistakes: ❌ Skipping this step ❌ Not rating intensity ❌ Thinking feelings can't be measured Why It Matters: Helps track progress Improves emotional awareness Increases accuracy and empathy Step 3: Negative Thoughts Write short, specific thoughts (1 sentence each) Focus on what you were telling yourself Examples: "I'm a failure." "There's something wrong with me." "I'll never succeed." Common Mistakes: ❌ Writing long paragraphs ❌ Including events ("She rejected me") ❌ Including feelings ("I feel terrible") ❌ Writing questions ("Why am I like this?" → convert to statement) Tip: Work through emotions one at a time: "What thought caused my sadness?" "What thought caused my anxiety?" Step 4: Positive Thoughts Generate thoughts that: ✅ Are 100% true ✅ Reduce belief in the negative thought Examples: "I made a mistake in that meeting, but that doesn't define my entire ability." "One criticism doesn't mean I'm a failure." Common Mistakes: ❌ Cheerleading ("I'm awesome no matter what") ❌ Irrelevant truths ("At least I can cook") ❌ Statements you don't fully believe Key Insight: Truth alone isn't enough—it must directly challenge the negative belief. Step 5: Re-evaluate Belief in Negative Thought After generating positive thoughts, re-rate how much you believe the original thought Example: "I'm a failure" Before: 90% After: 0% Goal: Reduce belief as much as possible (ideally close to 0%) Why It Matters: Emotional change happens when belief in negative thoughts decreases The greater the reduction, the greater the relief Core Principle Change one moment → understand the pattern → apply it everywhere. Memorable Quotes "We're not fishing for small improvements—we're going after the big fish." "I can't help you with your whole life, but I can help you with one moment." "The truth—not positive thinking—is what sets you free." "Without measuring feelings, therapists are mostly guessing."

Barack Obama crawled out to declare Trump's new Iran deal "no different" than his own JCPOA — then one fact about uranium enrichment blew the whole claim apart. JD Vance broke down the two-step verification deal, Pete Hegseth shut down Margaret Brennan the second she parroted Obama's talking point, and Trump reminded everyone Obama once handed Iran $1.7 billion in cash that failed anyway. Oil crashed to $80 a barrel and the markets surged.

In this episode of The Strength in Weakness Podcast, Ellen Radcliff responds to a thoughtful youtube comment from a viewer who argued that we worship God in spirit — not with our bodies — and therefore bodily alignment with God's design isn't required.Ellen takes the comment seriously, honoring the pain that often underlies it, while offering a gentle but grounded theological response: Scripture doesn't actually separate body from spirit. From Romans 12 and 1 Corinthians 6 to Genesis and the resurrection, the Bible consistently presents us as embodied people — and that matters for how we live and worship.This episode isn't about convincing anyone to change. It's about holding conviction and compassion together in what Ellen calls the "messy middle" — the space Jesus himself forged, where truth and grace don't cancel each other out.Connect with Strength In Weakness
