In this fascinating episode of Angus Underground, David Brown and Jim McWilliam welcome internationally respected cattle evaluator, consultant, and global livestock ambassador PJ Budler. Originally from South Africa and now based in Texas, PJ shares stories from a career that has taken him to more than 120 countries and judging assignments in over 50 nations. From evaluating cattle on icy parking lots in Kazakhstan to consulting operations across multiple continents, PJ offers a unique perspective on what makes cattle profitable, functional, and adaptable regardless of geography. The conversation quickly moves beyond travel stories and into a thoughtful discussion on cattle breeding philosophy. PJ argues that profitability begins with the cow on the ranch—not at the feedlot, packing plant, or retail counter. He challenges the industry's obsession with chasing maximum growth and extreme EPDs, advocating instead for balance, fertility, functional efficiency, environmental adaptability, and cattle that work within their production environment. Throughout the discussion, David, Jim, and PJ explore the differences between breeding for optimization versus maximization and why consistent, honest breeding programs ultimately build the strongest customer base. The episode concludes with an in-depth conversation about visual appraisal, functional efficiency, tropical adaptation, the influence of the late Jan Bonsma, and the dangers of overcomplicating cattle breeding. PJ emphasizes that successful breeders combine observation, curiosity, and repetition to understand cattle, while warning against treating genomics or any single tool as the only answer. His message is clear: great cattle breeding is still rooted in common sense, balance, and a relentless focus on profitability and function. Key Discussion Points PJ Budler's journey from a South African farm to becoming a globally recognized cattle judge and consultant Judging cattle in more than 50 countries and visiting over 120 countries worldwide The creation of the "Champion of the World" livestock competition Why profitable cow-calf operations start with efficient cows rather than terminal traits Functional efficiency versus chasing extreme genetic measurements The importance of fertility, body condition, and hormonal balance in cattle selection How environmental adaptability should influence breeding decisions Angus cattle and the challenges of heat, humidity, and parasite pressure The role of Bos indicus influence in tropical environments Why consistency and honesty are powerful marketing tools for seedstock producers Lessons from Jan Bonsma and observation-based cattle breeding The dangers of treating genomics as the "only game in town" Sponsor & Ad Mentions Creek Insurance -for more information or quotes visit InsureMyBull.com

As a former Palm Beach County family court judge, James Martz opens up about launching a private judging practice at Schwartz Sladkus Reich Greenberg Atlas in Boca Raton. In addition to explaining how private judging works, Martz identifies the types of family law matters best suited for the process. In Martz's one-on-one with discussion with Texas Lawyer and the Daily Business Review Regional Managing Editor Katie Hall, Martz also outlines the benefits and considerations parties should weigh when seeking a faster, more tailored path to resolving sensitive legal disputes outside the public court system.

This week on What in the Woo-Woo, Emily and KristaLyn react to two Reddit stories about Reiki, tarot, skepticism, grief, boundaries, and spiritual consent.First, a grieving teenager is taken to a Reiki session by his mom after a rough year, but he becomes convinced the whole thing is fake after finding what he believes is a hidden speaker. Was he right to refuse another session, or was his mom just scared and trying to help?Then, a man loses it after his best friend's girlfriend tries to give him a tarot reading in his own house after he already said no. Is he wrong for snapping, or was she crossing a line by pushing spiritual work onto someone who clearly didn't want it?This episode is full of gray areas: skeptical teenagers, grieving parents, pushy tarot readers, bad communication, and the big question at the center of it all — what does consent look like in spiritual spaces?Tell us in the comments: who was wrong here?Go make some magic.#WhatInTheWooWoo #TarotReading #SpiritualConsent #RedditStories #TheAlchemistsInkwell00:00 Welcome to What in the Woo-Woo00:47 A Woo-Woo of Middles00:56 Reddit Stories With Gray Areas01:11 Share Your Opinions With Us01:56 Story One: Am I the A-Hole for Saying No to Reiki?02:59 A Grieving Teen Goes to Reiki04:39 The Hidden Speaker Problem05:08 Reiki, Energy Movement & Stomach Gurgles06:06 Do We Have an Unreliable Narrator?07:15 Spiritual Work You Don't Want08:39 Reiki, Science & Skepticism09:30 Was the Practitioner the Problem?09:50 Grief, Fear & a Scared Mom10:47 Spiritual Consent Matters11:37 Verdict: No One's Really the A-Hole11:50 Story Two: Forced Tarot Reading Drama12:05 Judging the Poster Immediately12:35 Astrology, Crystals & Friend Group Tension13:30 “Stop With This Shit and Get Real”14:21 Verdict: Everyone Sucks Here15:05 Bad Astrology Takes and Breakup Advice16:25 Partners, Friend Groups & Personal Space18:31 Never Push Someone Into a Reading18:53 Insecurity and Forcing Acceptance20:15 The Poster Is Also a Problem20:46 Everyone Failed at Communication21:13 Gemini Season Communication Lesson21:23 Patreon, Submissions & ClosingJoin our new LIVE show, The Alchemist's Inkspill, every Friday at 1pm EST/10am PST here on YouTube (and Instagram Live)!Connect with us across the internet + IRL!

Romans 2:1First impressions are seldom correct. We're quick to judge others but a better approach is to choose to see the best in each other and extend grace. It's something we all need.
In this final panel from the Gray Center's October conference, moderator Aaron Nielsen (UT Austin) speaks with Judge Naomi Rao (D.C. Circuit) and Judge Steven Menashi (Second Circuit) about their role as judges after Loper Bright ended Chevron deference. Rao and Menashi describe their interpretive approaches—text-first, but attentive to context, structure, statutory purpose, and legal terms of art—and emphasize that interpretation involves judgment. They argueLoper Bright largely restores courts' independent duty to decide questions of law under the APA, while still allowing agencies discretion where statutes leave open-textured implementation choices or explicit delegations. The panel discusses D.C. Circuit practices, post–Loper Bright arguments about expertise, “express delegation,” Skidmore, forum shopping, major questions doctrine, scientific complexity, and how the debate may shift toward Article I and nondelegation.Sign up for email updates from the Gray Center here
In this episode, Pastor Dan Smail and Pastor Wendy Farone discuss a topic that is often misunderstood...judgment! How quickly we tend to judge others in a negative light. It comes so naturally to do so. This discussion focuses not only on what biblical judgment is as defined but also on how to recognize when we are being 'judgy' and how to counter that behavior. In addition, how can we serve the neighbor and see the positive by recognizing and judging or seeing the needs of others?

As for the one who is weak in faith, welcome him, but not to quarrel over opinions. 2 One person believes he may eat anything, while the weak person eats only vegetables. 3 Let not the one who eats despise the one who abstains, and let not the one who abstains pass judgment on the one who eats, for God has welcomed him. 4 Who are you to pass judgment on the servant of another? It is before his own master that he stands or falls. And he will be upheld, for the Lord is able to make him stand.5 One person esteems one day as better than another, while another esteems all days alike. Each one should be fully convinced in his own mind. 6 The one who observes the day, observes it in honor of the Lord. The one who eats, eats in honor of the Lord, since he gives thanks to God, while the one who abstains, abstains in honor of the Lord and gives thanks to God. 7 For none of us lives to himself, and none of us dies to himself. 8 For if we live, we live to the Lord, and if we die, we die to the Lord. So then, whether we live or whether we die, we are the Lord's. 9 For to this end Christ died and lived again, that he might be Lord both of the dead and of the living.10 Why do you pass judgment on your brother? Or you, why do you despise your brother? For we will all stand before the judgment seat of God; 11 for it is written,“As I live, says the Lord, every knee shall bow to me, and every tongue shall confess to God.”12 So then each of us will give an account of himself to God.13 Therefore let us not pass judgment on one another any longer…1. Do you think that the church faces the same tensions our broader culture does in terms of disputes, judgment and division?2. Paul had a clear position on the meat debate, agreeing with the strong but still refusing to weaponize it to win the argument. Is there a position you hold that you've been tempted to make a condition of fellowship? What makes it hard to hold the conviction without using it as a weapon?3. Diagnostic question: what are you giving God thanks for? Are there areas of your life you haven't really brought before Jesus in thankfulness?4. The sermon describes the "tender" places — corners of our lives where we still feel like we have to perform to keep our place. Where is that for you?5. Have you ever had a moment, even briefly, where you saw someone you'd been judging the way God might see them? What was that like, and did it change anything?6. Does applying the gospel personally to yourself, that you've been welcomed by Jesus, encourage and empower you to welcome others different from you? How so/why not?
Maybe someone has said it to you. Maybe you've said it yourself. Four words that can shut down any conversation in a heartbeat: are you judging me? It's a real question that deserves a real answer — and the Bible actually has a lot more to say about judging others than most people realize. In this episode, Pastor Todd walks through what Jesus actually meant in Matthew 7, why Paul had no problem calling out sin inside the church in 1 Corinthians, and what the difference is between hypocritical judgment and the kind of truth-in-love accountability that God actually calls believers to. If you've ever hesitated to speak into someone's life because you didn't want to be seen as judgmental — or if you've felt the sting of someone coming at you with that accusation — this conversation is going to give you some solid, Biblical ground to stand on. There's a way to say the hard thing and still honor God. You'll want to hear this one. Connect with us online at FocusChurch.com.

“He didn't just say it, he meant it, he felt it — and the combination of the power guy, the ruthless power guy, and the profound idealist was fascinating, and also hard for him.” — Evan Thomas on Bobby Kennedy Who was the greatest riddle in 20th century American political life? Judging from the ever-expanding library of Bobby biographies, Robert Francis Kennedy ranks very high on that list. Indeed, according to Evan Thomas, one of RFK's most acclaimed biographers, this third Kennedy son is, indeed, the most sphinx-like riddle in 20th century America. In his classic 2000 biography, Robert Kennedy: His Life, Thomas unravels the good and the bad Bobby. But, rather than presenting parallel narratives, his portrait treats the Machiavellian and the idealist as the same riddle. Raised by his father to exercise raw power, RFK discovered that mid-century America wasn't living up to its own ideals. The contradiction of the ruthless Kennedy machine politician and the profound idealist was what continues to make him so intriguing to Americans of every political stripe. Bobby concurred with Churchill's dictum that courage is the greatest virtue because, without it, you can't have the other virtues. So he lived a life of ridiculous physical and moral courage — taking insane risks that would terrify ordinary mortals. And, of course, his most insanely courageous act was his last — running for President in 1968 knowing that he was likely to be assassinated. Where have you gone, Bobby Kennedy? A nation turns its lonely eyes to you. Five Takeaways • The Central Paradox: Power Guy and Idealist in the Same Man: Bobby Kennedy was raised by his father to be the henchman of the Kennedy machine — doing the dirty stuff in Boston politics to keep Jack floating free and grand. He was pretty ruthless about it. At the same time, in mid-century America, he discovered that the country was not living up to its own constitution, and he wanted to make things right, and genuinely felt it. The combination of the machine politician and the profound idealist was what made him so endlessly fascinating. It also made him hard for himself: a man permanently at war with his own nature. • Courage: The Only Word That Mattered: No word was more important to Bobby Kennedy than courage. Churchill: it's the greatest virtue, because without it you can't have the others. Kennedy believed in physical courage, emotional courage, mental courage. He was a runty little kid at the wrong end of the dinner table — Jack and Joe and Kick at the golden end with the father, Bobby with the nuns and the mum. He got kicked out of prep school for cheating. He was not the athlete, not the golden one. Real courage comes from suffering. It took courage just to overcome being the loser. That was the source. • Making Up for Missing the War: Physical and Moral Courage: Bobby missed World War Two, basically. He got in at the very end and ended up scraping the deck of a destroyer in the Caribbean, far from combat. His brother Jack is a war hero on steroids — PT boat cut in half by a Japanese destroyer, rescues his men, written about in The New Yorker and Reader's Digest. Joe volunteers for a secret dangerous mission to replicate Jack's glory and dies. Pretty high bar of courage. Bobby spends the rest of his life making up for it — swimming the Colorado River, climbing Mount Kennedy in the Yukon, jumping overboard off the coast of Maine to save Jack's jacket. Sometimes stunts. But increasingly, moral courage — which is the greater thing. • The Mob, Joe Kennedy, and the Beehive: When Bobby starts poking around in the mob as a Senate aide, J. Edgar Hoover is only too happy to point out: keep going here, you know where it's going to end up. With Joe Kennedy. Bobby's investigation of Giancana and Frank Sinatra starts grazing against his own father. Thomas's reading: whether conscious or unconscious, there is an element of rebellion. Bobby, appointed henchman, doing the dirty stuff for pop, resenting it, starts poking the beehive that might expose him. It never fully landed. But it started. And Hoover used it to blackmail the Kennedys. • The Ripple of Hope, and RFK Jr. as Tragedy: Bobby's trip to South Africa — apartheid everywhere, the freedom movement barely existing, everybody in prison. His speech: every time somebody does something brave or heroic, it causes a ripple, and that gives you hope. A young Margaret Marshall, later Chief Justice of the Massachusetts Supreme Judicial Court, was in the audience. He gave us hope where there was none. That is the ghost Andrew went looking for at Hickory Hill and didn't find. The contrast with RFK Jr. is, for Thomas, simply sad. Poignant. His own family has disavowed him. Caroline Kennedy made a broadcast accusing him of crimes. The idea of Robert Kennedy Jr. is tragic. About the Guest Evan Thomas is an American writer and historian. He was Washington bureau chief of Newsweek for ten years and a writer and editor there for thirty-three years. He is the author of ten books, including Robert Kennedy: His Life (Simon & Schuster, 2000), Being Nixon, Road to Surrender, and, with Walter Isaacson, The Wise Men. He has taught at Harvard and Princeton. His biography of Churchill is forthcoming from Simon & Schuster in December 2026.

Today we are speaking with the founder of the first all female competition the Nashville fit show and the natural titans as well as a posing and prep coach, speaker, author, wife, and mother. She is a bikini Olympian with an incredible story triumphing over abuse after an ex attempted to run her over with his car and being told she wouldn't be able to continue bodybuilding to persisting, becoming a pro, and beating the odds. She also hosts awesome retreats with her style, as well as workshops and events and has some really cool experiences she is offering to the industry that have never been done before. Here to talk about all of that and more I Welcome to the show Whitney wiser savage how are you doing?! Whitney's Personal Journey Whitney discussed surviving an abusive relationship and a devastating car accident that resulted in spinal injuries requiring emergency surgery and spinal fusion. Despite being told that returning to competition was unlikely, Whitney remained determined and eventually returned to the stage, earning an IFBB Pro card at the 2014 USA Championships and later qualifying for the Olympia. Whitney emphasized that setbacks and repeated near-misses ultimately provided valuable lessons that now help inform coaching and mentoring. Building the Nashville Fit Show Whitney explained how the idea for the first all-women's bodybuilding competition came from a vision to create a more comfortable and welcoming environment for female athletes. Support from the fitness community helped bring the concept to life, while event promotion also required navigating financial and operational challenges. Whitney highlighted the strong sense of community built through NPC Tennessee over many years of promoting events. The Fit Show Story Project Whitney shared details about the Fit Show Story Project, launched in 2020 to empower women through storytelling. Participants submit stories about overcoming adversity, finalists create video submissions, and a winner is selected based on impact and personal connection. The initiative continues to grow, with selected stories featured on the Nashville Fit Show website and plans for a special guest presenter at this year's award ceremony. Upcoming Events Fit Show Forum Workshop — June 27, 2026 The educational workshop is designed to help competitors prepare for the stage and will cover: Hair and makeup preparation Tanning guidance Judging criteria education Hands-on judging practice using scorecards Confidence-building support Mental health and post-show transition discussions Celeste is scheduled to speak on mental health, and additional experts, including a hypnotherapist, will contribute educational sessions. Nashville Fit Show Post-Show Brunch — August 16, 2026 A new post-show brunch will take place the day after the Nashville Fit Show and will focus on education and community. Topics include: Understanding judges' feedback Mental health discussions Nutrition guidance Networking opportunities Registration is expected to open June 1, 2026, with limited attendance available. Coaching, Posing, and Judging Insights Whitney discussed how posing standards and techniques have evolved over time, especially with the introduction of the Fit Model division. While more information is available than ever before, Whitney noted that not all guidance is accurate, making quality coaching and a solid understanding of official judging criteria increasingly important. Experience as a judge has also shaped the advice provided to athletes regarding posing and stage presentation. Motherhood and Work-Life Balance Whitney reflected on balancing entrepreneurship, fitness, and motherhood. Early years of parenting brought challenges that required adjusting fitness goals and expectations. Whitney emphasized the importance of self-compassion during those periods. Today, responsibilities are managed through long-term planning, prioritization, and maintaining focus on both family and business growth. Key Takeaways Resilience through adversity Learning from setbacks rather than fearing them Building supportive communities for women in fitness Using personal stories to inspire others Viewing every competition as a learning experience Prioritizing education, preparation, and long-term growth over short-term outcomes The overall message was that success comes from persistence, faith, continuous learning, and the willingness to keep moving forward despite obstacles.

Matthew 7:1-6 - Judging
Judging from Paul's words of concern in today's reading, it seems that he had a painful visit with the church at Corinth and wrote a letter after that visit. There seems to be a reference to the act of church discipline and the restoration of a repentant sinner into the fold of the church. As we get further into the book of 2 Corinthians, we'll discover that the church had become impressed with a group of teachers referred to as “super-apostles” who in fact were false apostles. They came with letters of recommendation, so when the church asks Paul about his letters of recommendation, Paul simply says, “You! You are my letter of recommendation!” :::Christian Standard Bible translation.All music written and produced by John Burgess Ross.Co-produced by the Christian Standard Biblefacebook.com/commuterbibleinstagram.com/commuter_bibletwitter.com/CommuterPodpatreon.com/commuterbibleadmin@commuterbible.org

Morning Mantra: "It's easier to look at the short comings of others and judge them, than to address our own lack of self-worth." We are quick to judge others. Taking time to understand them is more difficult, so we judge.We think we know them better than they do, or at least what they should do, look like, act like, or be like. Boy has this become an even bigger issue now with social media.Judging comes from our own insecurity. Understanding and accepting others- even if they aren't who we think they should be- requires compassion, patience, and is rooted in love.It must start with our own self-love. Our own feelings of worthiness.Once we accept that we are worthy- despite not being perfect- we can begin to allow others to be the same.Once we recognize that judging separates us from each other, and from our best self, we can begin to close the gap, and move closer to peace.To love more and judge less.#BeLessJudegy #behappy #behorsey #behippie #HorseHippie #HorseHippieBrand #morningmantra #morningmotivation #inspirationoftheday #inspirationalquotes

SEND ME A TEXT MESSAGE NOWAmerica only gets one 250th anniversary.So why does it feel like America's birthday is becoming yet another political battle centered around Donald Trump?In this episode, I look at the growing controversy surrounding artists reportedly walking away from America 250 events and the strange discussion about putting Trump on a proposed $250 bill.At what point does a national celebration stop being about the country and start becoming about one political figure?I also talk about why so many Americans seem exhausted by the constant politicization of nearly everything and whether it's still possible for the country to come together around something bigger than partisan politics.Can America celebrate its 250th anniversary without turning it into another tribute to Donald Trump? Judging by what's happening right now, that answer appears to be NO.If you've enjoyed the podcast and found it informative, and maybe got a laugh or two, then please contribute to keeping this podcast around.

Push back even slightly and suddenly you're the villain.I'm not backing down.In this episode, I share the exact questions I ask every time someone tries to tell me I'm doing it wrong. Not to judge — but to find out if we're even talking about the same thing.Do you train your own child? At what age did you start? How many hours a week? How many years have you been doing it?Because without those answers, the conversation is noise.Can you answer the questions?

Ever found yourself mid-argument thinking, "Why am I so worked up right now?" What if the real culprit… is your ego? David is joined by Amy Woodall for a conversation that feels more like a mirror than a mic. Together, they pull back the curtain on ego, and how it sneaks into your relationships, hijacks your reactions, and disguises itself as righteousness. Amy shows us where ego lurks and how asking one simple question, "What would love do?", can change the tone, the outcome, and maybe even the world. Expect to feel called out, cracked open, and challenged to stop forwarding that podcast to "someone who really needs to hear it"… and instead, take it personally. This is your invitation to check your ego, rewire your reactions, and step into leadership with radical love, not loud opinions. ❤️ Additional Resources: Subscribe to Conscious Habit on YouTube!

It's the ultimate active force.

In day 138 of the Jewish Inspiration Podcast, Rabbi Aryeh Wolbe continues exploring the Gate of Slander in Orchos Tzaddikim, focusing on the fifth dimension: speaking negatively about a Ba'al Teshuvah (penitent). He explains the profound spiritual transformation that occurs through genuine repentance — past sins are not merely forgiven but actually converted into merits. Therefore, reminding a penitent of their former wrongdoings is especially grave, as it mocks what have now become mitzvahs.Rabbi Wolbe stresses the importance of giving others the benefit of the doubt, not publicizing private sins, and judging favorably. He shares a powerful personal story of his own momentary lapse and immediate teshuvah, as well as a story about a rabbi who assumed a diabetic had eaten non-kosher food out of medical necessity. The class highlights how destructive it is to rob someone of their dignity and honor, and notes that true Lashon Hara (factually accurate negative speech) is often more damaging than false slander because it is more readily believed._____________This Podcast Series is Generously Underwritten by Peter & Becky BotvinRecorded at TORCH Centre in the Levin Family Studios (B) to a live audience on January 26, 2026, in Houston, Texas.Released as Podcast on May 27, 2026_____________This series on Orchos Tzadikim/Ways of the Righteous is produced in partnership with Hachzek.Join the revolution of daily Mussar study at hachzek.com.We are using the Treasure of Life edition of the Orchos Tzadikkim (Published by Feldheim)_____________Listen, Subscribe & Share: Apple Podcasts: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/jewish-inspiration-podcast-rabbi-aryeh-wolbe/id1476610783Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/show/4r0KfjMzmCNQbiNaZBCSU7) to stay inspired!

A grounded conversation on anxiety, embodiment, nervous system healing, and the common mistakes that keep midlife women disconnected from their bodies and themselves.So many women in midlife are trying to reconnect with themselves… but don't realize they've become deeply disconnected from their bodies in the process.In this episode of The Midlife Spirituality Project, Katie explores the 5 biggest mistakes people make when trying to become more embodied, regulate the nervous system, and feel safe in their bodies again.If you've been experiencing anxiety, overwhelm, emotional exhaustion, or a sense that you don't fully feel like yourself anymore, this episode offers an important reframe:Coming home to your body is not about forcing yourself to feel more. It's about creating enough safety to reconnect gently and honestly.Katie explains how many women unintentionally approach embodiment from the same mindset that created the disconnection in the first place—through pressure, perfectionism, self-judgment, and trying to “fix” themselves.Drawing from yoga philosophy, nervous system work, mindfulness, and her own experience supporting women in midlife, Katie walks through the subtle ways we bypass the body while thinking we're healing.⚠️ The 5 Mistakes Covered in This Episode1. Trying to Force Yourself to FeelWhy pushing yourself into emotions or body sensations too quickly can create more overwhelm instead of healing.2. Thinking the Body Should Always Feel CalmWhy embodiment is not about eliminating discomfort—and how the body communicates through many sensations and emotions.3. Staying in the Head and Analyzing EverythingHow overthinking disconnects us from direct experience and keeps us from truly feeling and processing what's happening in the body.4. Judging the Body Instead of Listening to ItWhy symptoms, tension, exhaustion, and emotional responses are often messages—not problems to fight against.5. Turning Embodiment Into Another Thing to AchieveHow healing becomes harder when we approach it with perfectionism, pressure, and the need to “do it right.”

MERCH - https://nonmembersshop.com/Happy National No Dirty Dishes Day! We kick off the episode by agreeing this holiday is literally impossible, especially in a house of five. Erin shares a controversial "Mother's Day Hot Take" comparing the forced fun and expectations to New Year's Eve but admits this year was a rare, peaceful success involving her favorite Whole Foods sourdough. Erin gives a highly anticipated update on her hydroponic garden, celebrating her incredibly flavorful homegrown salads despite the emotional trauma of executing her weaker sprouts. We also drop an urgent reminder that our merch preorder is officially closing this week, so secure your hoodies and mystery $15 trinkets while you can.Erin recaps her weekend of chaotic "side quests," including a girls' night that devolved into screaming about a frog while aggressively throwing non waterproof flameless candles into a pool. She also got roped into judging a local car show in the freezing rain despite knowing nothing about cars, ultimately picking the winners based purely on vibes and flippy headlights. We then dive into a hilarious niche internet trend: "Scientology Speedruns," where guys film themselves rushing into church buildings just to see how far they can get before the staff kicks them out.In sports and running news, we marvel at 23-year-old Sophia, who took a wrong turn at the Flying Pig Half and accidentally ran a full 3:30 marathon, and celebrate Rachel, who absolutely shattered the Cocodona 250 record and beat every man in the 253-mile field. We discuss an athlete suing Puma over career-ending spikes, the Eagles drafting a Nigerian player who has never played a snap of football, and rumors of LIV Golf running out of Saudi funding (which sparks a heated rant about how terrible AI search results have become). Plus, Mike successfully snipes an eBay auction for Mario cards live on air, and we officially declare we are done talking about the Alix Earle and Alex Cooper drama until something actually happens.We are then joined by fan-favorite runner Eamon for an honest interview about his recent DNF at a 100-mile race, discussing the brutal downhills, the wild self-talk swings, the humbling moment of getting his bib ripped off for missing a cutoff, and his immediate plan for redemption in October. Finally, we review a bizarre TikTok of an Eastern European family silently eating massive bowls of hard-boiled eggs and sausages, and wrap up with a wholesome "No Bad, No Sad" story about a group of friends who secretly booked out their buddy's entire Columbus food tour for his birthday.
Why would anyone have been out to harm Walter Reuther?This controversial book details intense internal struggles in the UAW (United Auto Workers), especially between socialists, communists, and more conservative factions. Walter Reuther was a powerful figure in labor, especially within the UAW, and somebody doesn't want him remembered. His work involved leadership in organizing industrial workers, fighting factional conflicts within the union, and pushing for workers' rights and social justice. He was a skilled union leader who combined militancy with negotiation, significantly shaping labor relations in the U.S. Covert Magazine published an article on May 8, 2026, confirming that "Labor Leader Walter Reuther Was Among 1960s Liberal Leaders Who Appear to Have Been Assassinated By 'the Deep State.'" There are no facts to support the theory that Walter Reuther died in an airplane "accident." Newly discovered documents provide solid evidence of an assassination. The more closely this is observed, the more obvious it becomes. Reuther's battles with key figures like Homer Martin and Jay Lovestone—who became a CIA agent—and his eventual opposition to communist influence in the union, shaped the UAW's direction and contributed to his complex legacy. Walter and his brother Victor exposed the CIA's involvement in labor movements abroad, particularly through the AIFLD, linked to covert operations.This led to conflicts within the labor movement and contributed to UAW's withdrawal from the AFL-CIO. Reuther played a leading role in the Civil Rights and Anti-War Movements, too. He was a significant labor ally, supporting civil rights marches and challenging racial discrimination. The suspicious circumstances of Reuther's death have not been officially investigated. Author Rob McKenzie is a former Ford Assembler and long-time UAW leader. Here, he details the incriminating facts he has unearthed surrounding the crash at the Pellston airport as well as the obstruction put up by the FBI, the NTSB and others who hold the evidence of the crime. His connections within organized labor helped dig up long-suppressed documents. First-hand knowledge and decades of experience in the UAW provide a new perspective on Reuther's life, death, and legacy. The book argues that Reuther was assassinated due to his political positions and conflicts with the CIA and other powerful entities.CIA and Intelligence Agency interference is strongly suggested by the circumstances. The long-standing antagonism between Reuther and the CIA, with its covert operations that intersected with labor politics, made him a target. Judging by the decline of the UAW after his removal, the powers-that-be won. The UAW leadership shifted towards more conservative, cooperative relations with employers, moving away from Reuther's social unionism. The book highlights how the union's political and strategic path changed, leading to challenges in adapting to globalization and labor struggles. Despite new evidence and suspicions, the UAW leadership, the FBI and the NTSB have refused to launch thorough investigation. Attempts by family members, private investigators, and researchers to uncover the truth and seek justice have been met with resistance and silence. The book situates Reuther's assassination in its historical context alongside other politically significant assassinations of the era (John F. Kennedy, Martin Luther King Jr., Robert Kennedy) and calls for a reassessment of his life and death in light of suppressed information. Walter Reuther was a pivotal labor leader. His assassination shows every sign of being politically motivated and covered up. The author supports his conclusions with extensive documentation, interviews, and references to FBI files, union records, and personal accounts.Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-opperman-report--1198501/support.
